asciilifeform: he's a french d00d, maybe davout oughta handle this one
mircea_popescu: why ?
asciilifeform: i can, just as easily, but i suspect that i live under a curse, so far nobody i invite, comes
mircea_popescu: gotta break it eh
asciilifeform: reading that 'pkzip', soul sings : 0 deps! no 'alexandrias', etc

mircea_popescu: i think so
pete_dushenski: ben_vulpes: any progress updates on the 0.8.2 / 0.8.6 tests ? curious to see what hacks are needed, if any.
asciilifeform: lol, for what do you want the old rusty shovels of heathendom, pete_dushenski
pete_dushenski: bv had asked for my archived copies a few weeks back, presumably with the intent to run on spare macware.
pete_dushenski: i have no such software in operation atm. though i may fire one up just to see what i can learn about the cuts trb ultimately made.
asciilifeform: pete_dushenski: 0.8.something was the last prb i had working
asciilifeform: it is not actually very enlightening to a student of trb, because various subsystems were replaced wholesale.
asciilifeform: iirc jurov has 0.8.x in his lxr viewer www, so see for yourself.
pete_dushenski: i might just get my hands dirty either way. not quite lead into gold but i highly doubt i'll learn ~nothing~
pete_dushenski: 0.8.1 is jurov's lxr version ftr

ben_vulpes: pete_dushenski: the most i can imagine you'll learn about the differences between prb and trb without reading the source is that the latter doesn't have a gui
ben_vulpes: i did write an article about the material changes from each version

ben_vulpes: time to update the banhammer?
pete_dushenski: my thought as well
ben_vulpes: bit of an 'enumerating badness' race
pete_dushenski: a bit
pete_dushenski: speaking of the state of the network, mircea_popescu how did you produce this profile without getpeerinfo ? http://trilema.com/the-actual-state-of-the-bitcoin-network
pete_dushenski , very late to the party, wishes for getpeerinfo in trb
phf: seems like a candidate for shiva extension, since it's so trivial to write
BingoBoingo: phf: Or a chance for pete to code and make a patch from 0.7-ish
phf: that's where i'm going with that one ;)
pete_dushenski adds to to-do list!
pete_dushenski: anyone remember what was wrong with polarbeard's crack at the getpeerinfo patch ? doesn't look like much happened after http://btcbase.org/log/2016-03-16#1434518 but my log searches may be imperfect ☝︎
a111: Logged on 2016-03-16 18:41 trinque: http://dpaste.com/179T4JC.txt << bad press with polarbeard_add_getpeerinfo_rpc.vpatch
phf: according to btcbase it depends on polarbeard_better_log_messages, which doesn't press cleanly (that was around the time when a bunch of things got reground, pbd meanwhile dropped out)
phf: and i don't think anyone cared enough to regrind polarbeard's patches (actually come to think of it, he had to do it himself two or three times, at which point he gave up)
pete_dushenski: i c
phf: i don't think better log messages are quite right anyway, but it doesn't look like getpeer depends on it, substance-wise
pete_dushenski: ya, seems simple enough to just patch in getpeer.

asciilifeform: *he had
mircea_popescu: lol
mircea_popescu: and did this dream mp call it the "fuck you rekt an' proper at a distance" glove ?
asciilifeform: almost. in this dream-trilema , mircea_popescu often used phrase 'chick Came To The Glove' and i always assumed -- literary device
mircea_popescu: loller.
asciilifeform: but turned out -- this thing, that pulls objects in
mircea_popescu: oh i thought it just arbitrarily applies prevailing force vector to objects. you know, like in a level designer toolbox.
mircea_popescu: speaking of such wonders, let's play the game whereby i go eat breakfast and whosoever feels oracle-y attempts to guess what i'm having. then when i'm back in 15 minutes we'll see who won.
shinohai imagines mircea_popescu eating poached quail eggs and toast for some reason ...

a111: Logged on 2016-12-19 18:48 mircea_popescu: anyway, to be fair here : the russians have no interest in waiting ; putin might be uncharacteristically meek, but in general a half dozen us ambassadors starting with the resident in manilla within the next week-10days is perfectly possible. at which point obama actually having the gall to call natl emergency and set aside the transfer of power is not entirely inconceivable. after which the russians WILL sink all the us carr
mircea_popescu is reasonably impressed nothing came of that btw.
mircea_popescu: apparently everyone but the usians is a peace loving, respectable sort of fellow.
asciilifeform: relatedly, putin sacked 16 generals today.

mircea_popescu: in other news, the whitehouse.gov is in google for a "readout of call with putin", which then links to /transitionsplash/ which then links to root.
