danielpbarron: a fat picker?? mega-surprise that went on for more than two weeks.
BingoBoingo: danielpbarron: surprising yes, but ADA, resonable accomodation, etc
joecool: BingoBoingo: thanks but i *could* do that if i had much to say at the moment
mircea_popescu: gotta say i admire your patience with the gawker stuff.
joecool: how is everyone? been a while since i frequented here
joecool: i read parts of the logs from time to time
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: You gotta remember at one point I was able to appreciate the sports stuff that didn't suck for a while. Now I just drink tears as it tears itself appart.
mircea_popescu: in other news i just watched the most ridiculous idiocy ever. i'm talking "robot king kong from outer space" level here.
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: someone's gotta take a hit for the team
mircea_popescu: written/directed by one whit stillman. which in itself is amusing, like amateur pornographers making vhs tapes with cardboard credits reading Rick Steele or some shit.
mircea_popescu: anyway, it has everything, including a fucktard who proposes to name themselves "urban haute bourgeoisie"
mircea_popescu: chiefly because the ustards are too fucking dumb to even comprehend unintentional selfbattery.
mircea_popescu: it's seriously worth seeing just to see what i think of us "upper crust".
mircea_popescu: perhaps better appreciate my disdain for alf's lizzards.
BingoBoingo: <mircea_popescu> they're 20somethings who seriously party dressed. << In the US, the hamplanet hazard means 20 somethings gotta party dressed lest people get triggered of ham-raped
mircea_popescu: which is unfortunate, seeing how the whole thing's one huge monologue.
mircea_popescu: "Whit Stillman was born in 1952 and raised in Cornwall in upstate New York, the son of a impoverished débutante from Philadelphia and a Democratic politician from Washington D.C."
mircea_popescu: how the fuck did these beached whales survive pre wikitwittereddit i'll never know.
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: Well, with the poor filter for keeping out undesirables USian 20 somethings are burdened with, nudity invites circus freak disaster
BingoBoingo: Basically, Beetus Bitch Betty and her fold mold scare you USians into a clothed state
mircea_popescu: i do not recall a single instance of a nude or nude-tolerant place where fat people voluntarily attempted to participate.
mircea_popescu: perhaps i don't do enough renaissance faires / biker conventions / camping / whatever
gribble: Error: "goxlag" is not a valid command.

mircea_popescu: btw, apropos of nothing in particular : Nonelementary Problems in an Elementary Exposition, A & I Yaglom.
mircea_popescu: it has a splendid statement of cauchy's binding of riemann zeta terms among other goodies.
mircea_popescu: but yes, fine, fine, should be on that biographical list danielpbarron was making.
mircea_popescu: "To suggest that antisemitism can ever be explained, rather than condemned, is insensitive and, frankly, bizarre. AQA needs to explain how and why this question was included in an exam paper."

phf: "the ussr olympiad problem book"
phf: i'm waiting for western ashkenazim to start embracing persecution as a status symbol, kind of like how affirmative action devalued blacks in workforce, this is the opposite. was a bit of a thing in su, in some professions (anything related to mil for example) if you were known to be of jewish descent (you wouldn't be on paper, but "people talk") it was also kind of assumed that you were whicked smart to get in
mircea_popescu: the sad truth of the 20th century history is that hitler did in fact succeed ; much more than the italian twerp succeeded in wiping the mafia - the nazis managed to actually end judaism.
mircea_popescu: the remnants, in both cases, are this ridoinculous us pretense, much in the way "indians" survived there.
phf: "jewish lawyers" on tv
mircea_popescu: anyway. in the meantime the heat of battle forged a very different israel, which i suppose can lay claim to continuance. but it is in very few significant points continuing my notion of jewish.
☟︎☟︎ mircea_popescu: then again the same can be said of imaginary postmodern nations such as "austria". really, austria ? ooookay.
phf: apropos, one thing that i couldn't quite grok moving to u.s., how the children of odessa expats (read isaac babel for example about jewish gangsters of odessa) turned into sniveling woody allen clones
mircea_popescu: you familiar with the whole "slav soul, fatalism, blabla" ?
mircea_popescu: the us has it also ; they're much more retarded about it is all.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform country is everyone's woman, eh. what else did you think it were, an abstraction ?
mircea_popescu: (for the curious re notion of jewish - for one thing it speaks fucking idis, and for the other see bashevis-singer an' let me be.)

mircea_popescu: really alf, lost fambly in saxon wastelands speaking plattdeutsch closer to jewish than hebrew speakers in africa.
mircea_popescu: 3% in 1000 ad, 97% in 1930s. today's israel has a fake 5 or 10% or somesuch, made mostly of retirees and plastics.
mircea_popescu: pretty epic story, really. but the imposture is also evident.

mod6: Does anyone else see these error messages running the latest trb (minus shiva)? Looks to be in main.cpp:ProcessMessage around lines 1855:1913. It doesn't look to me to be related to the malleus patch, but I could be wrong there. Thoughts? Seen the same in your logs? Plz let us know.
http://dpaste.com/21PJMY4.txt ☟︎ mod6: mircea_popescu: ok thanks for checking.
mod6: fwiw, my node doesn't die, just keeps on running in the event of this exception.
thestringpuller: mod6: looks like my node keeps stalling once it gets up to date?
thestringpuller: it's still pulling in transactions in the logs, but it's not receiving any blocks
☟︎ hanbot: so mod6 & anyone else interested in that shortlogs idea (
http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=17-03-2016#1434765): i've been trying out two versions of shortening; one trimmed of off-topic and nontechnical commentary, the other with any relevant line/argument summarized. a possibly substantial problem i see with either of these is that the accompanying philosophical discourse, esp from mircea_popescu, is probably mandatory for comprehension, ev
☝︎ hanbot: en if doing a quick lookup later
hanbot: and from my own experience anyway, if you cut out some portion of what the man said it WILL come back to bite you
hanbot: one could leave such things intact and merely trim actual offtopic...not sure if that'd actually be useful in the sense mod6 was looking for tho (also not sure it'd merit pay)
mircea_popescu: i'd hire myself to shorten myself ; but then again i already do.

thestringpuller: asciilifeform: do you have a solution for "stuck node" phenonemon?
ben_vulpes runs to logs, sees an infinity percent increase in traffic
thestringpuller: fuck. i guess I'll just add watchdog and if logs don't have `ProcessBlock: ACCEPTED` in the last 60 minutes `kill -9 <pid>; ./startrb.sh`
thestringpuller: if already nigga rigged, might as well duct tape the whole thing
trinque: thestringpuller: where are you hosting
trinque: the reason I ask is that my "stuck node" problems vanished when I left AWS.
thestringpuller: ah. yea. I'm running on debian jessie a core 2 duo machine (older but not super old). but everytime thing gets "up to date" it stops asking for blocks
thestringpuller: but then again I'm only connected to ascii's node right now to receive blocks
