jhvh1: asciilifeform: The operation succeeded.
mod6: nothing interesting at the moment.
mod6: been adventuring in ada a bit recently.
mod6: nothing to write home about really, just sharpening my skills with containers, multi-d arrays, and record.
mod6: most of which are fairly easy to utilize; i've been adventuring through reading in vpatch/sig/pubkeys and storing them in mem.
mod6: the really interesting part will be doing any sort of string manip etc.
mod6: how hard/easy that will be, i dunno yet.
mod6: hopefully it'll be /fast/ too.

mircea_popescu: and greece is possibly the main offender. it gets more free money than ~anyone, per size.
mod6: <+asciilifeform> mod6: you may have noticed that asciilifeform did not use the containers, or elaborate string ops << yeah, we discussed. just wanted to familiarize myself with 'em.
mod6: for my purposes, i'd like to use arrays. anyway, im just kinda doing some educational stuff.
mod6: <+mircea_popescu> mod6 name fits at least. << ah
trinque: also btc-e still down, massive wad of coins on the move?
mircea_popescu: well, the usg problem is that they got left with a larger-than-usual hole as a result of their recent attempt to "gold" bitcoin.
mircea_popescu: now, trying to get rid of "independent" "exchanges" is logical from their pow, but won't turn out particularly useful, because they weren't all that independent in the first place.
trinque: only "heard an explosion" and "hey, btc-e's on fire".
trinque: but I'm sure gox is solvent; we'll see!
mircea_popescu: hey, for as long as the imbecile cattle "buys" bitcoin on usg.tor and then goes on reddit to "independently" opine about mp...
trinque: maybe btc-e guy's owner told him to fork over the wad, and go sit on his spike, as per prior arrangements.
trinque: I find it hard to believe that exchange "owner" owns himself
mircea_popescu: it's an iffy point. generally, trying to work the pig farm slowly increases the qty of shit you're covered in. digital pig farms aren't much better.
mircea_popescu: the whole "for we say so therefore it is" confidence is somewhat chuckle worthy.
ben_vulpes: asciilifeform: i know the number of links pasted to my logger approaches epsilon, but rewriting those few links to the sensible scheme makes me squeamish nevertheless. probably resolved with a "hey doodz, updating my loggers refs, this includes editing lines logged to point to the new schema."
ben_vulpes: dun disagree in the slightest with either point
jhvh1: asciilifeform: The operation succeeded.
mircea_popescu: i'm not entirely sure how to phrase this correctly, but, some guy trying to use his own noggin emerged out of the tardstalk swamps at some point years past. apparently he's using some different-same "platform" thing, whatever.
mod6: asciilifeform: thanks
mircea_popescu: there is no such thing because of the enforced short memory of the herd.
mircea_popescu: this, btw, should probably count as augmented intelligence : the normal workings of the normie brain make the past very foggy. the deliberate design of the apple and apple-clones makes memory both more costly and less useful than it'd be naturally.
mircea_popescu: so they are... augmenting the... intelligence, such as it is, of the "customer base"
mircea_popescu: it does look a lot more like augmented lactation, but hey. what's intelligence if not productive amirite.
BingoBoingo: <asciilifeform> is, e.g., gavin, still in circulation? i admit - lost track << Atm he appears to be mostly focused with his Amherst city council or neighborhood watch gig
mircea_popescu: that's the other thing : so vast is the usg bureaucracy, you can always use them in a different province. that this is how it works is always evident : just like gavin was supposed to be accepted in bitcoin because of his mit credentials, now he's offered to the naive population of $random-small-town on the basis of his "bitcoin credentials" and so no. as long as nobody digs, figures the usg, the lies stand by default.
a111: Logged on 2016-08-23 13:08 mircea_popescu: Framedragger the problem here is moreover default trust. so you wake up one day and you see... "gnupg". nomina nuda. you look around, theres' "werner koch" idem, nomina nuda. you look, there's "tor" with "shari" and "isis". names, hollow as can be. but the natural tendency of the brain, to see movement in a succession of stills and meaning in noise and structure in names convinces you these are THINGS.
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: I understand you shiva hands are full, but maybe you can spit some venom at the Wizsec thing? As "coke machine" prognisticator affair could use your voice from on high.
BingoBoingo: Rage into a text editor on this subject for 30-45 minutes, editor will insert links to support points and spellcheck before offering pre-press for your review.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform pretty lulzy item. "coins stolen from bitcoinica" aha hurr durr.
BingoBoingo: rage has many flavors, and mebbe USG lives long enough for there to be a next coke machine to Rage Against
mircea_popescu: "While presented under the umbrella name of WizSec, this unofficial independent investigation into MtGox is a voluntary effort of individuals." ehehehehe
