undata is underwhelmed by the notion that a "wallet" should involve a websocket, is likely just going to encrypt a sqlite and do his thing that way
undata: that's the last thing deedbot needs; I've got a free-ish weekend coming up too
undata really wants to just hand raw txns to a finished 0.5.3 fork

ben_vulpes: watch blocks coming in for transactions of relevance to your address, and then request them from btcd
undata: yeah, the thing's going to need to be funded time to time though; I could just hand it a private key and keep track of its balance myself
davout: undata: "is underwhelmed by the notion that a "wallet" should involve a websocket" <<< how do you mean?
undata: this though grows into wallet-y thing which would be nicely decoupled from the client

hanbot: is it really that hard a problem? what if you use a second laser to measure distance and focus the cutter?
danielpbarron: i bet he did the engraving on a disc and cut the B out after
punkman: you need a laser that doesn't just move in cartesian plane, solved problem but expensive
hanbot: it's always a polar "plane" anyway no?
hanbot: i imagine what you mean is that the cheapo laser has fixed distance focus. then it would cut on a spheric surface not really a cartesian plane.
hanbot: if it can actually adjust focus distance to make a real plane, then well...it can adjust focus distance.
punkman: hanbot, oic what you mean. I don't know much about lasers, but I think focus adjustment wouldn't help for the vase example.

mircea_popescu: decimation actually that tracing is why bitcin was designed so time isn't a concern
decimation: is time completely ignored in all the 'orphan' algorithms?
mircea_popescu: decimation not completely ignored, but one minute disagreements don't matter.
decimation: so the ability to run a clock within 1 min of other nodes worldwide is an implied requirement (or finding someone nearby with the same)
mircea_popescu: decimation no, the ability to keep time within about a minute of what your previous idea of time was when the previous block was mined.
mircea_popescu: basically the bitcoin requirement is that your time is within ~10% ish of itself. so you can travel at up to 30Mm/sec.
mircea_popescu: ie, if the network thinks block 2 is mined at 12:00, and your clock thinks it's 17:55, and then block three is, according to the network, mined at 12:11 but your clock thinks it's 18:22 you'll have a problem.

mircea_popescu: Despite their references to the successes of King Louis XIV, both of these books are still yoked by the exact same horse-blindering Churchillian reverence for all that is broad-franchise democracy, and in particular it’s always-in-tow little brothers, socialism and inflation. << this guy.
mircea_popescu: he's gonna end up a sort of Bertrand Levy of the republican times.

ben_vulpes: prevailing opinion being that there's no point in making a high quality computing product...yet
ben_vulpes: they have this hilarious "spreadsheet" program "Numbers" that not just disregards 20 years of spreadsheet UI finessing, but also disregards their own text input conventions.
ben_vulpes: the "calculator" in 10.10 uses javascript
ben_vulpes: and so...can't actually do math anymore.

mircea_popescu: i just dropped 5 lbs of steel handcuffs on 4 lbs of laptop
Bagels7: hello mircea. why do you post naked women every once in a while? and why do they always have their arms down in that pose
fluffypony: they're in their natural pose (preparing supper in the kitchen)
Bagels7: how many subbies do you have
Bagels7: well lets use your definition
mircea_popescu: im not having any right now, im sitting an' derping at computers. i had one earlier, in her ass.
Bagels7: do you really believe all women are useless if not for being a bimbo
jurov: mircea's looking forward to hanbot's obituary
jurov: she'll be useful for that at least
Bagels7: I think I think you are sexist Micea_popescu
mircea_popescu: because, obviously, water and soap doesn't exist and who could ever wash!
mircea_popescu: Bagels7 yes, i believe there is strict and unbreachable difference between the sexes.
Bagels7: but not the ones that people think
Bagels7: well there was a bunch of stuff i didn't agree with that you said but I forgot what it was
Bagels7: my boyfriend makes my coffee and sandwhiches and cooks
Bagels7: oh so you have no problem when the sexes are reversed. neat
Bagels7: who took all those pictures
Bagels7: No, the differences between the sexes are breachable. some men sit down to pee because their mother made them
Bagels7: its really common here in canada that women act like men
mircea_popescu: only to the eyes of someone who has no idea what men act like.
Bagels7: havent you heard about the pussification of the modern man
Bagels7: well i know how men act like, i grew up with only a father, and all my aunts married passified men probably after they fucked a bunch of alpha's

jurov: hanbot remember the trilema post that spouse of deceased man is useless except to write the obituary?
hanbot: well i remember the trilema post in which the woman's duty to write a eulogy, suck cock, and wash socks was outlined
hanbot: or "spouse", for that matter ;p
jurov: he was asking about it
mircea_popescu: omfg that's not what that article said, and wtf spouse!
assbot: Rating should be any non zero value between 10 and -10.
mircea_popescu: hanbot if you eventually decide to sue for creation of a sexually harassful working environment, pls to direct it at jurov
jurov: she's working here?
jurov: who else is gonna write your eulogy?
jurov: never late to plan for the occassion, isn't it?
hanbot: jurov i've heard of worse premises for dating services
jurov: lol i did for a while
jurov: hanbot rather a pickup line, maybe. "wanna write my eulogy?"
diametric: asciilifeform: its a manual 3 axis, though i think it would take little effort to make it a full 3 axis.
diametric: asciilifeform: in context of the wood dong guy, he could vary height with the intensity as well, but it becomes really, really apparently its lasered because the edges are always charred
diametric: not that it matters, his shit is already obviously lasered.
diametric: also, nubbins`, your dedication to this guy is amazing.

ben_vulpes: my reasoning being that iterating through the blocks is adequate to get complex information out of the thing, and that producing unspent outputs is adequate for "bitcoinating" - eg, producing and signing transactions.
