mod6: happy new year tmsr~ ☟︎
adlai: ben_vulpes: so, see, that's a tricky question. some people have told me that small offers are noise, and i intend to do roughly zero to address that complaint, because mpex accepts them, so they're signal. if you're asking about psychobabble - of course, although i'll use my judgement, which has been known to differ from that of other people.
adlai: damnit mod6, isn't that a fiat thing? someday trb should fix the calendar, too
adlai: but thank you for reminding me:
mod6: well, time doesn't matter.. it's in the logs.
ben_vulpes: adlai: i dun much care one way or t'other, but if you don't want to get null-routed you're going to have to give more of a shit about how the other people here judge your 'psychobabble'.
ben_vulpes: you know where the void is, and the invitation to scream into it probably won't close any time soon.

shinohai: @ ben_vulpes when you have time some evening I have a very crude bash script I would like you to help me improve.
ben_vulpes: gpg-gram and paste it to me, i'll get to it eventually
shinohai: kk
ben_vulpes: may as well just gpg-gram it to everyone in l2, who knows if someone else might get to code review before me
ben_vulpes amazed to be doing this in b-a now
ben_vulpes: fwiw the rules are simple
ben_vulpes: set -xeu
ben_vulpes: jam discrete bits of side-effect into functions
adlai knows bash better than he'd like, would rather have ben_vulpes fix it
ben_vulpes: pass args to functions for anything that might change ever
adlai: isn't this why satoshi spent two years funemployed? so ben_vulpes could have some coin again?
ben_vulpes: for big bash shit (heaven help you) have a single file with the project functions exported, and smaller scripts that import that file and then call the relevant functions
ben_vulpes: shinohai: savvy?
ben_vulpes lives in usa, will likely never own coin
shinohai: I like small, so I prefer bash whenever possible.
ben_vulpes: shinohai: anyways i have some time right now so choppa choppa

mats: idk who meni is -- am talking about ben_vulpes

adlai raises the SNR a little, by "leaking" the address of the local 'bitembassy's ATM: 1DdfiZffjxNypZ6NbLuMP3w84vfzXfxiqc

ben_vulpes: what, it only has one?
ben_vulpes: is that its send-from or send-to?
