mircea_popescu: Michail1> Heh. He likes to talk, but rarely in channel. His English is getting way better than it was only 6 months ago. << i wonder if anyone ever studied the interplay between so called "immigration" law and "scamming".
mircea_popescu: decimation that sounbds a little like trilema if i do say so myself :D
decimation: heh maybe greenspun reads you
mircea_popescu: ben_vulpes> not depreciation? << this is a particularly cogent question. the us fudges EVERYTHING, including the actual expenditure on infrastructure through, counting depreciation, counting future "financial costs" etc etc etc. half the political machine in the us works on pork contracts, which are all "infrastructure". that famous bridge in alaska was not even 1% of 1%.
mircea_popescu: a butthole-issued "20 to 25% gdp" is a much more reliable statistic than whatever the miniprop publishes. and it's definitely under germany. one needs but take a walk around detroit and frankfurt to see.
decimation: yeah the best comment on greenspun's article: "This is a subject and comparison that has been written about at length. German roads last longer because they are built substantially better than most U.S. roads. The German system of road construction relies on large long-term contracts with national companies that must build and maintain the roadway and are responsible for repairing any design and engineering defects. There is a powerfu
decimation: the us political system 'selects for' low-bid crony incompetents while strangling anyone with a clue
mircea_popescu: !up Michail1
mircea_popescu: decimation it's a mystery tho. france could also have good infrastructure. itdoes not. i doubt it's the "political" anything, they're about as equally retarded.

trinque: at least in the american case I think there's a tacit understanding that at least one color of the two is there to loot the federal government, certainly not to do anything constructive
trinque: the fact that the "red states" tend to take more federal money lines up with that
trinque: and of course the second of the two colors are also there to loot, but they dress it up as something constructive
trinque: any idiot off the street will tell you that this "pork" is how it is, has been, will be

ben_vulpes: "so I poisoned the DNS and rejected all outbound connection attempts on port 8333, to force all the wallets to connect to a single local full node, which had connectivity to a single remote node over the Internet. Thus, all the lightweight wallets at the festival had Bitcoin network connectivity, but we only needed to backhaul the Bitcoin network's transaction traffic once."
ben_vulpes: spv's bad, mk?
ben_vulpes: moreover, bitcoining on other peoples networks is bad, mk?
trinque: ben_vulpes: they're seriously thinking of using that avahi turd in their bitcoind?
trinque: or some reimplementation thereof?
ben_vulpes: dude bitcoin-development 2015 is turning into bitcointalk.org 2012
trinque: ah no nevermind
trinque: zeroconf looks to be "zero confirmation txn" in this usage
trinque: it also refers to the 169.254 autoconfig IPs and various other poetteringisms seen in avahi and bonjour
ben_vulpes: no no, someone thinks that's a grand idea

mircea_popescu: <trinque> matter-of-fact-ly << only a problem in places which insist on pretending like there is or should be a difference between money and politics.
mircea_popescu: great way to keep the idiot sons employed, sure. but ideally you don't wantthem employed in congress, if at all possible.
mircea_popescu: avahi wait wut
mircea_popescu: best explanation ever.
chetty: the guy spoke to SATOSHI so I'm pretty sure we should just trust what he says./// rolling eyes
fluffypony: meh, I spoke to Satoshi too
fluffypony: he makes an excellent Salmon California Roll
mircea_popescu: fucking cheese.
mircea_popescu: who puts cheese in fish i want to know.
cazalla: trying to think of a cheese/fish combo but can't think of anything that might taste nice
cazalla: some sorta cheese sauce on white fish mebe
mircea_popescu: smoked salmon works with a variety of harder cheeses, but i like my sushi rawq
cazalla: i do love blue cheese sauce with some chilli on a schnitty
cazalla: and i do make the best crumbed schnitty in australia
fluffypony: all jokes aside, I must agree
fluffypony: I eat sashimi over everything else
fluffypony: salmon and eel sashimi preferred
mircea_popescu: tuna and salmon
mircea_popescu: dunno about teh eel. i like it cooked.
chetty: ooo eel, havent has that in sooo long, now I am drooling
fluffypony: eel sashimi is cooked
fluffypony: otherwise afair it's poisonous
cazalla: more fugu!
mircea_popescu: i suppose it depends on the eel
cazalla: never had it, never even seen it for sale here at the fish markets
cazalla: there are some local eels not far from here but all the run off from the gutters run into the lake so i'm not game to eat from it (some old fucks catch their eels there and eat em)
mircea_popescu: all fish lives off shit. that's what it is.
cazalla: mind you i considered bagging a few ducks from the same lake
cazalla: i like turtles
cazalla: LD is like kryptonite to even the most hardened acolyte of /pol/
cazalla: hot patootie, bless my soul!
cazalla: copypaste, captchas? wtf
cazalla: how am i meant to shit post?
cazalla: this slivivitz is quote nivcer but i think i rather the cherry i had last week
cazalla: ya squat while ya drink it top kek lulz
cazalla: copypaste, seriously the captcha is driving me insane
cazalla: ah well wait till tonight, she got hers, now he'll get his
cazalla: don't tell me to stfu and can it
cazalla: janet
cazalla: oh damnit
cazalla: i married a woman more frigid than janet, damnit
mircea_popescu: eh you ever heard that "there's no such thing as frigid women, just unskilled men" ?
cazalla: exception that proves the rule
cazalla: ya heard that one?
mircea_popescu: so whadda ya do all day ?
cazalla: me or her?
cazalla: me.. read logs, look for news, look for work, stare out the window and think of what might be if i had not got her pregnant
cazalla: her.. cry, whinge, complain because kid pulls her hair, her washing off the clothes horse, food out her hand/mouth
cazalla: i mean god forbid, the poor woman is stuck reading books all day long
mircea_popescu: you two ever had a chat bout all this ?
cazalla: fucked if i am going to sit with the kid 24/7
mircea_popescu: an' i dun mean a screaming match.
cazalla: yeah many times but i lock the door and stay in the computer (craft) room
cazalla: nah she doesn't scream or fight
cazalla: just cries
cazalla: maybe she has reason.. been around the world many times, me? never
cazalla: so she knows what she is missing
cazalla: me? not reary
cazalla: yet believe it or not she wants another
cazalla: and we tried last month and i thought of her friend the entire time.. half figured to tell her while banging her
cazalla: but last thing i need is more tears
mircea_popescu: another what ?
cazalla: bubs
cazalla: 2 of the mums at her mums group are already pregnant so i figure some jealousy or envy
cazalla: mind you, all mid 30s dried up vag type women
mircea_popescu: when do you want women to have kids, at 16 ?
cazalla: mine or anyones
cazalla: tbh i don't even know, i got duped by this conservation /pol/ shit just as i thought i was due to drop dead
cazalla: conservative even
cazalla: best gf i had
cazalla: love life wise
cazalla: was the one where we argued, things got smashed, cheated on each other
cazalla: was utter shit
mircea_popescu never cared much for that.
cazalla: but at least it was a passion love/hate fuck fest
assbot: [MPEX] [S.MPOE] 144112 @ 0.00029655 = 42.7364 BTC [+] {2}
cazalla: i didn't think i did either but my missus won't as much raise her voice without crying
cazalla: it is like dealing with another toddler
cazalla: at least my son has an excuse, he's 16 months old, her? what excuse?
mircea_popescu: what's she do for a living anyway ?
cazalla: nothing now
cazalla: prior to bubs.. marketing pr office shit
mircea_popescu: an' before ?
cazalla: what else eh
assbot: [MPEX] [S.MPOE] 19438 @ 0.00029961 = 5.8238 BTC [+]
mircea_popescu: so teach her something.
cazalla: what?
cazalla: she has her own hobbies
mircea_popescu: anything you feel like.
cazalla: just can't afford the time atm for her stuff
mircea_popescu: foirget that. just go, "woman, come over i wanna teach you to X"
cazalla: yeah she just isn't like that
cazalla: like i said.. exception that proves the rule
mircea_popescu: how you know ?
cazalla: ya think they don't exist but they do
cazalla: cause i've tried
mircea_popescu: so she cried ?
cazalla: over anything and everything
cazalla: cept instead of my abuse
cazalla: kid beats on her now
cazalla: pulls her hair, she cries, he laughs
mircea_popescu: sounds like a shitty life.
cazalla: well i tell her to go out with the other mums
cazalla: but she acts as if she has 10 kids, not 1
cazalla: but he is pretty full on
cazalla: i can't deal with it without resorting to smashing things
cazalla: so she is left to deal with it
mircea_popescu: sounds like a pretty serious problem brewing.
cazalla: so what? ya belt a 16 month old?
cazalla: they dont understand at that age
cazalla: like i said before he's like a jew
cazalla: he hits you and cries out in pain when you respond
davout: cazalla: moar money than you?
cazalla: davout, yup and by a huge fucking mile
assbot: [MPEX] [S.MPOE] 54720 @ 0.00029084 = 15.9148 BTC [-]
cazalla: davout, i bitched about this before mind you.. her father provided everything.. and i mean EVERYTHING
cazalla: woman doesn't know how to really do anything
davout: i was referring to the jewish baby
cazalla: well by default yeah i guess so he wants for nothing
cazalla: never enough for toddlers though
cazalla: my earliest memory is getting a beating
mircea_popescu: i think jdif is toddler default
cazalla: this kid? doubt it
mircea_popescu: some outgrow it
cazalla: i went fucking mental the other week at her
cazalla: she tells me.. (on account of her sister/mother) that he won't get into a good school on account he is not christianed
mircea_popescu: cause jewish ?
cazalla: lol no
cazalla: just stupid
cazalla: not that i am super smart
mircea_popescu: davout did you manage to get that pogo going btw ?
cazalla: but i am not christianed either
mircea_popescu: cazalla i think it's christened.
cazalla: let him go to a montessori school if not privately tutored
cazalla: maybe but i am drunk like a fish
mircea_popescu: what's wrong with public schools ?
cazalla: it can be xistied for all i care
cazalla: here? nothing when i was that age
cazalla: now? full of riff raff
cazalla: he'd prob get beat up by the nig nogs
davout: mircea_popescu: well yes, stuck at the part where i need to put an bitcoind arm binary on the thing
mircea_popescu: at least he gets used to it.
cazalla: where as i fought and won many fights
cazalla: yeah but i grew up fighting a grown man (my father)
cazalla: so taking on 2-3 kids was nothing
davout: an as far as i understand we need to have a static build first, which we don't
cazalla: dont really have the heart to give him a flogging like my father did me
cazalla: my father would flog me with a jug cord when i was lucky
mircea_popescu: davout well... in the absolute purist sense we won't for a while, on account of how thoroughly corrupt the stack is.
cazalla: otherwise it was punches, many a time spent on the ground gasping for air because he winded me
mircea_popescu: but... there is a cvasi-functional build dpb's been using
cazalla: now i figure it was because my father had his own inadequiancies
mircea_popescu: cazalla the way i view it, especially seeing how it's other people's work & labour,
cazalla: but eventually, i toppled even him
mircea_popescu: public school's a great boon. let him fail early.
mircea_popescu: rather than grow up to be 30 and THEN discover he really has no place in the world.
cazalla: mircea_popescu, but public school here is not the school of hard knocks i went to, it's the school of sjw now
davout: if there's a way to get bitcoind running on the buildroot install i'm interested, my pogo, is waiting, with it's SSD plugged in and all
mircea_popescu: davout you looked through his notes ?
davout: i don't really care that much if it isn't 'pure'
mircea_popescu: cazalla whatever it may be. public school, it's what it is, by definition, like a floating piece of wood on water, always level.
cazalla: remidns me, i need to get my pogo up and going
davout: yeah i did
cazalla: level with what
mircea_popescu: the public.
cazalla: but the public today are weak
cazalla: at least, even 30 years ago, you'd cop a beating from someone
mircea_popescu: so what, you'll build him a speshul earth ?
cazalla: now men of tody are scared to even talk to kids
cazalla: nope
cazalla: if i have my way i'll take him out bush
mircea_popescu: well maybe not at 16 months.
cazalla: australia is fucked beyond repair
cazalla: only took 30 years
cazalla: tbh i blame lack of aunts/uncles/relatives/grandparents for all this shit
cazalla: when i grew up, it's all i knew
cazalla: my son? 1 cousin, 1 uncle, 1 aunty, grand parents live far away, fucking nothing
cazalla: so the mother bares all the burden
cazalla: i got tossed all around the place just a few decades ago if not i went my own way
cazalla: fucking country of pussies
cazalla: someone cussing out muslims makes the mainstream media for hate crimes
cazalla: meanwhile fags were bashed on live tv 25 years ago
cazalla: literally
cazalla: fuck australia
cazalla: hope the indochinese come and rape everyone
cazalla: give them a real reason to cry
copypaste: Sorry. Site went down four times before I admitted defeat.
copypaste: I offered to pay the Jews off via email, maybe they will accept my offer.
cazalla: yeah i know about that shitty plugin
mircea_popescu: copypaste you know i've been seeing a lot of wobble
cazalla: 8chan is dead already
cazalla: all it took was some jews with some plugins
copypaste: hehe
copypaste: it's worse than that
copypaste: all imageboards without CAPTCHA are dead
copypaste: due to this plugin. just a matter of it getting big enough for a spammer to find it fun to spam.
davout: cazalla: you sound bitter, the cool thing about australia though is that you can easily go live in the middle of nowhere and get away form other humans
cazalla: but we dont have captcha here
cazalla: maybe you add assbot to 8chan eh?
mircea_popescu: copypaste o wow, leveraged tor ?
cazalla: davout, not bitter, just betrayede
copypaste: yes, basically Tor but a much larger network
copypaste: 9M exits srong
copypaste: 0.2% of IP space.
cazalla: davout, and you can't go live in the middle of fucking nowhere, middle of nowhere IS THE FUCKING DESERT
mircea_popescu: copypaste bring it back on a pgp backend.
cazalla: i can't imagine a better scenario for wot than 8chana
davout: cazalla: yeah well exactly, you don't get cable tv
mircea_popescu: copypaste also, can i has mah banner on your dead page ? :D
copypaste: dead page?
copypaste: the site's not dead. just requires a CAPTCHA.
mircea_popescu: oh oh sorry my bad
cazalla: you know if you added a wot requirement to post, people would either capitulate and join or leave
mircea_popescu: i misunderstood.
cazalla: both scenario is good outcome
mircea_popescu: copypaste i thought you were ddosed into the ground.
copypaste: nah, it was a layer 7 DoS against post.pp
cazalla: fucking winter so cold here
cazalla: we have ducted heating but.. gets too hot
copypaste: i'll think about it some more in the morning. what would stop bots from generating PGP keys? unless i forced them into being at a certain PGp level of course
cazalla: wow
cazalla: copypaste l2p
mircea_popescu: copypaste for one thing, generating keys is reasonably intensive
cazalla: i can go and create 6 million pgp keys
cazalla: what standing would that give me here?
copypaste: as i said
copypaste: unless i force them into being at a certain WoT level
cazalla: so whip it
copypaste: but at that point it's no longer an anonymous BBS.
cazalla: whip it good
davout: copypaste: also feed them to phuctor
mircea_popescu: copypaste in truth all imagebnoards were always pseudonymous
mircea_popescu: you can't have absolute anonimitycan you.
copypaste: true. well, 8chan lets you post over Tor.
copypaste: if you fill out a captcha and stand on one leg while sticking your tongue out
copypaste: fullchan4jtta4sx.onion
mircea_popescu: copypaste this is how pgp evens the odds : a new sig costs about 10x more cycles to make
mircea_popescu: than the spam costs you
copypaste: well, that's only for a secure public key.
copypaste: i could make a PGP key with just any data.
mircea_popescu: ips were cheap before, and you still could handle it. now that they became much cheaper they also became a problem
copypaste: it doesn't need to be secure if i just want to spam
copypaste: that's true
mircea_popescu: and you can replace captcha with pgp challenge
cazalla: more more more
mircea_popescu: always on for 1st use, or if spammy.
mircea_popescu: like this :
mircea_popescu: !rate herp 1 derp
assbot: herp is not registered in WoT.
mircea_popescu: !rate cazalla 1 derp
assbot: Request successful, get your OTP: http://w.b-a.link/otp/9ce79021008ac55f
cazalla: i don't really care
mircea_popescu: you put that on the page, they verify they can use pgp, that's it.
cazalla: was drunk before, will be a drunk after
mircea_popescu: cazalla i was getting an otp to show hw dood.
cazalla: nah you were being passive aggressive
cazalla: lol
mircea_popescu: lol. im rarely agressive and never passive.
cazalla: on the defensive?
cazalla: i'll sell you my missus for 1 btc
cazalla: what says you
cazalla: copypaste, taker?
cazalla: fuck i'll give her away for free
cazalla: not even shitting you
mircea_popescu: there's ~3bn women i don't know out there, and at most 20mn btc
mircea_popescu: you do the math.
cazalla: don't even need to
cazalla: a satoshi?
cazalla: i shouldn't even be in this fucking situation
mircea_popescu: well so get out then.
cazalla: bit difficult when a kid is involved
cazalla: maybe bitcoin will allow me to have another missus elsewhere
mircea_popescu: or maybe jesus will.
cazalla: but i'll never leave/ditch her on account of her mothering my son
cazalla: she's a good mum mind you
mircea_popescu: so then.
cazalla: just a shitty missus/lay/fuck/cook/cleaner/talker
cazalla: imagine a woman that can't even cook
cazalla: she tried to cook me a meal last week when i did a one day first aid course
mircea_popescu: neway copypaste dun despair man. as seinfeld rabi says, "often, in life, there are problems - and just as often, there are solutions"
cazalla: wasn't even ready by 10pm
cazalla: told her to fuck it and put it in the bin
cazalla: how hard is it to cook lamb shanks
mircea_popescu: so teach her how to cook.
cazalla: in a slow cooker
cazalla: why should i teach her? her father/mother should've
cazalla: she's mid 30s
mircea_popescu: i'll tell you : she prolly set it too low because she was trying too hard not to fuck up.
cazalla: not for me to teach her anything at that age
cazalla: yeah i know exactly what you mean
mircea_popescu: dude forget shoulds. she's your wife, no shoulds.
cazalla: fucks up because of fear of fucking up
cazalla: she really needs a beating
cazalla: just to have a good cry if anything
mircea_popescu: not so far.
Adlai: think of it (teaching her to cook) as an investment in your children's mother/teacher
cazalla: fwiw i dont think anyone needs to be taught to cook
cazalla: should come from within
cazalla: i never read much as half a cook book
mircea_popescu: you don't beat women for existing eh. beating is corrective or perhaps aesthetic, not fucking psychological release.
cazalla: but i can cook
mircea_popescu: well aintcha a little bush hero :D
cazalla: Adlai, i cook the kid's meals, not her
mircea_popescu: erryone that knows to cook does, and erryone who doesn't doesn't. either teach her or else suffar.
Adlai: exactly why you should teach her, so you don't have to do it all yourself
cazalla: mircea_popescu, yeah well i stomped grapes, she didn't, there ya go
cazalla: Adlai, i love cooking
cazalla: cooking is like breathing
Adlai: except my kitchen doesn't turn into a garbage dump from people just standing there breathing
mircea_popescu: Adlai they've got one hell of a thing going, woman fucks up because she's too petrified of doing a bad job an' disappointing him, and he won't teach her because he's petrified of not being able to, and disappointing her.
mircea_popescu: you two need to get over each other.
cazalla: mircea_popescu, no-one taught me
cazalla: yet i can cook for a king or pleb
mircea_popescu: what, the world is equal to your own personal experience ?
cazalla: well now, we've all gotta eat
cazalla: and by eat
mircea_popescu: i bet no one breastfed you, either.
cazalla: i mean eat
Adlai: "it takes a tough man to cook a tender chicken" or teach a good lesson
cazalla: mircea_popescu, 2 years
cazalla: so clearly i hate on the bitch for only managing 12 months
mircea_popescu: eh don't sell yourself short, you prolly made that tit.
cazalla: and she only did it because i forced it
cazalla: or, just like the rest of the mothers in her "mums group" she would've gone to formula
mircea_popescu: "The terms are simple: you get the first $1,000 every new Luminati customer that you referred, spends with us."
cazalla: may as well toss the kid in the bin at that point like a fucked up meal
cazalla: who ever heard of this bullshit that breastfeeding is something most women can't do
cazalla: yet down under.. standard
mircea_popescu: notwithstanding the inconvenience this is causing our friend, interesting service.

mircea_popescu: fucking performance.
mircea_popescu: cazalla listen, in any case : you gotta do things together. that's the long and the short of it. now, if she sucks then what you do will be training, but there's no out of this.
cazalla: i forget if i read this on trilema
cazalla: or some other site
cazalla: the things that attract you to someone in the beginning are things you end up hating about that preson
mircea_popescu: if this is the case you got a problem.
cazalla: yeah i know this
cazalla: i know i ahve a problem
cazalla: sorta what i am whining about eh
cazalla: no kid? i'd be gone already
cazalla: kid?
cazalla: bit of a degenerate to abandon him
cazalla: if i drop dead at 50 and he takes the lot so be it
mircea_popescu: so you got yourself a conflict. better stuff of life.
cazalla: won't leave him without a father though
mircea_popescu: it is, notably, not the woman's fault that you got yourself a conflict.
cazalla: nope, not her fault at all
cazalla: my own fault
cazalla: 100%
cazalla: which is why i stay and suffer
mircea_popescu: and in the latest eulora news : today's bug is, "mp just got a large mining find, so large in fact that it didn't fit in his mining claim, so it got truncated."
cazalla: would be easy to leave if i ascribed 100% of the blame to her
mircea_popescu: who fucking knew, before today, this is a problem o.O
cazalla: she's mine, he's mine
cazalla: and that is that and if it kills me so be it, he'll have a father to do things with and so it goes
cazalla: rahter off myself than leave him alone with her
mircea_popescu: i somehow dun think it'll kill ya
cazalla: well it all adds up eh
cazalla: already aged 10 years in the past 16 months
cazalla: stopped drinking for 2-3 year before he sprung up
cazalla: no-one puts the drink to my mouth mind you
cazalla: i mean tbh sometimes i regret even waking up
cazalla: it'd be nice to just lay down, sleep and that's that
cazalla: no better way to go
cazalla: and i've seen worse
cazalla: trains
cazalla: car
cazalla: necked
cazalla: bed is bliss in comparison
mircea_popescu: diamond ring for wedding, whore necklace for divorce
cazalla: anyway just as my wife is, youare the exception to the rule so futile to compare
cazalla: would ya believe though it was nothing less than a mexican negro half caste which convinced me about this woman
cazalla: all because she played zelda
cazalla: fuck me and my youth
mircea_popescu: lol wut ?
cazalla: "gamer girlfriend"
cazalla: FUCK YOU PIPEDREAM!
mircea_popescu: what a criterion lol.
cazalla: should've gone to the locale catholic or even mormon church to find a woman
cazalla: haah i know right
cazalla: western man
cazalla: chasing a waifu gamer girl
cazalla: what a fucking con that was

cazalla: and she does to this day
mircea_popescu: here's one for you : the only she-assassin i ever met actually proposed to me.
cazalla: playing some bastardised plants vs zombies shit
mircea_popescu: she sounded a lot like you, amusingly. about as drunk.
cazalla: an ex gf wanted to get amrried and have kids
cazalla: was emailing me blocks of land many years ago
cazalla: fucked her off
mircea_popescu: an' why ?
cazalla: because no woman i met was really like that
cazalla: most australian women are like men
cazalla: want to fuck and part ways
cazalla: seriously surprised i even spawned a kid
cazalla: if it wasnt for the fact he looks like a carbon copy
cazalla: i'd go innawoods
cazalla: if it wasnt for him
cazalla: live on crown land
cazalla: little hut
cazalla: chop some wood

mircea_popescu: no interwebs ?
cazalla: be happy to ditch it at this point tbh
cazalla: maybe login, download logs/emails and that be that
cazalla: no www shit is worth a shit at this point or has been for years, gaming is dead for at least a decade
cazalla: it is all fucked

cazalla: fucked
mircea_popescu: from experience, this retirement thing lasts about a year

cazalla: then let me die within 3 years
cazalla: all i want is a bit more land
cazalla: small orchard, more gardens, live stock
cazalla: compy 386 to grab some files for some reading
cazalla: i specifically remember this point in high school thinking about the future
cazalla: nothing has fkn changed
cazalla: maybe a bit of lipstick on the pig that is hte internet
cazalla: but really nothing has changed
cazalla: fuck this gay earth
mircea_popescu: well... better video.

mircea_popescu: Dear Judge Forrest,
mircea_popescu: I am writing you this letter in anticipation of my upcoming sentencing. This is a challenging letter to write because, as one who faces punishment, I have a strong incentive to say anything I think might result in leniency. But I have endeavored to be honest and forthright throughout this process, and so I will be in this letter as well.

mircea_popescu: i never bought into the trotskist explainatorism.
mircea_popescu: to me, it stands, as what they said.
asciilifeform: the gods could write a riotously funny book of what folks said while sitting on stakes, boiling in oil, etc
mircea_popescu: weird notion, that somehow "justice" creates a responsibility vacuum.
asciilifeform: interestingly, it is a well-documented fact that when ivan iv sat his courtiers down on stakes, a very common (if not most common) last few hours was shouting 'god save the king'
mircea_popescu: meanwhile, there's this woman, who was arrested in '52 alongisde her two year old daughter.
mircea_popescu: cazalla doesn't think much of his wife, but this woman raised a child while hiding in the mountains
mircea_popescu: with her own gun. two winters up there, with her guy. who, also arrested.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: and rogozov performed a self-appendectomy in the antarctic.

mircea_popescu: the divisors ? yes. problem is, if you look at the moduli they don't actually follow that pattern exactly throughout
mircea_popescu: moreover, if they did, the result would have to be a divisor that's more like 1 00000000 1 00000000 1 00000000 1 00000000 1 00000000 1 etc.

ascii_field: try it yourself. (addressed to everyone)
mircea_popescu: heh. that's some very reliable accident.
ascii_field: now, exercise for reader
ascii_field: we now know merely that each key has one or more mirrored modulus
ascii_field: but nothing in particular about ones which were -not-.
ascii_field: at any rate, we now have a rigorous definition of the type of integer we are concerned with:
ascii_field: mirrored(n)
ascii_field: though, for rigour's sake, i will add that n is a multiple-of-64 bits-long, and is nonzero
mircea_popescu: ascii_field and you don't see a case where such a modulo would not be detected owing to the happenstance that it shares no factors with other keys ?

mircea_popescu: well, sure, there could be all sorts of classes, but there's no call to poke at crabs with a window wiper.
mircea_popescu: i guess that puts it to rest
ascii_field: now write down n as a diophantine equation
mircea_popescu: anyway : mirrored moduli will necessarily have a factor of the form 0x00000001000000000000000100000000000000010000000000000001000000000000000100000000000000010000000000000001000000000000000100000000

ascii_field: there we go
mircea_popescu: which would seem like "a long prime"

mircea_popescu: "Of course, we can't understand prediction markets until we understand markets.

mircea_popescu: and there he goes, right off into retarded.
mircea_popescu: first off, a market is not a "device". a market is a PLACE. second off, markets exist in unfungible goods - fungibility is not involved. third off, markets exist ONLY with currency, which IS NOT a good. on it goes.

Apocalyptic: myeah but this is in base 10 and you're using the fact that it's divisible by 11 which is 10^1+1 because you mirror only 1 digit-base here, it's exactly analogous to my " every N has 641 and 6700417 as prime factors" earlier claim since notice that 641*6700417 = 2^32 + 1, which corresponds to a 32-bit mirror window length
Apocalyptic: ;;later tell mircea_popescu maybe i'm misunderstanding something simple but you could give such a factor for 0xffaaccddffaaccdd3c4b7ff83c4b7ff8 , it's a random 128 bit number constructed as the moduli in question, ( and 0x1000000000000000100000000 does not divide it)
gribble: The operation succeeded.
williamdunne: Hello all, thought I'd help beef up the logs. Been looking hollow last couple of days!
Adlai slaps williamdunne around a bit with a large trout
williamdunne force feeds Adlai three kippers
Adlai: have you come around on the blocksize yet?
Adlai: iirc, you thought it needed enlargenizing
assbot: [MPEX] [S.MPOE] 21600 @ 0.00029965 = 6.4724 BTC [+]
williamdunne: Not quite, I still think at some point it will need to be bigger. Just not Gavin-sized
williamdunne: And not soon, either
Adlai: why would it ever need to be bigger?
williamdunne: 7tx/s doesn't seem enough even for small amounts of utility with summin like lightening on top
Adlai: it works equally well/poorly at 1mb and 2mb
williamdunne: Well, its just a matter of volume isn't it
Adlai: i guess a better question is "what does 'not Gavin-sized' mean"
Adlai: smaller? larger? dynamiker? polymorfic?
williamdunne: Gavin-sized is the 50% increase every fuckknows for so many years starting at 20mb
williamdunne: With the goal being sticking everything in the blockchain
williamdunne: I think fluffypony's Monero's way of doing it is pretty interesting tho
williamdunne: But y'know, an experiment
Adlai: for logs' sake, how does fluffypony do it in lolero?
mats: fun fact: Google has the full source to Flash
Adlai: you do too, it's just been preprocessed :)
williamdunne: Mining constantly incentivized by permanent sub 1% inflation, and a dynamic block size which allows something like the median block size of past week +20%
williamdunne: Which of course can go up or down as demand changes
williamdunne: And there is a proposal to automatically reset historical blockchain every x days/months/years to resolve transaction size issue
Adlai: permanent inflation ^_^
williamdunne: Y'know what I mean
williamdunne: Constant issuance rather than a hard ceiling like we have in bitcoin
Adlai: cursory glance confirms that monero has permanent disinflation
Adlai: kinda like qntra!
Adlai: and i don't even have to spam my qntra pushes across the entire userbase
assbot: [MPEX] [S.MPOE] 142450 @ 0.00028853 = 41.1011 BTC [-] {3}
williamdunne: Scoop does that for you
williamdunne: But yeah, kinda like Qntra shares
Adlai: trouble is, there'll come a day when bitcoin inflation is lower than monflation
mats: fun fact: nasdaq runs the investor relations portals for most of the fortune 500 companies, on adobe coldfusion
Adlai: wait, the f500 are treated by nasdaq as *investors*? ^_^
mats: this thing runs as SYSTEM by default, written in java, and the code was stolen some time ago
BingoBoingo: mats: Does anyone other than "Finance" and "Higher Education" really use coldfusion?
williamdunne: Jeremy Allaire would be proud
mats: ive noticed a lot of municipalities using it
williamdunne: Just read my first bit of ColdFusion, how does anyone write something more complex than Hello World! in it?
mats: a surprisingly large number of folks run java EE and .NET application servers
mats: NIST did, for example
BingoBoingo imagines what happened was Adobe was giving schools Phree Dreamweaver for classes, and they just ran with it all the way
williamdunne shudders
williamdunne: Then again, I began using DreamWeaver (mx?) when I was like 6-7
mats: fun fact: there is a particular ACPI table in that you can put anywhere in a low range of memory during boot, and Windows will take the payload data, drop it as an EXE, and run it as SYSTEM.
williamdunne: Security ++
mats returns to studying ios jailbreaks
williamdunne: Its a shame you can't !down IRL
williamdunne: "The UK government should apply the same regulation and identification requirements to bitcoin wallets as it does to bank accounts, Accenture has advised."

BingoBoingo: So I joined #bitcoin-assets-trades and strongly recommend it. So much lulz when assbot reports the Havelol trades. Good for at least a chuckled every time I check the feed there
BingoBoingo: !up Vexual
Adlai: Vexual: what do you think about assbot trades in the main channel
Adlai says, people who really care, can /join #bitcoin-assets-trades
BingoBoingo: Big trades seem fine. Not all that common. Tis information. Small trades though... like <assbot> [HAVELOCK] [AM100] 55 @ 0.00005229 = 0.0029 BTC [-]
Adlai: it's only information if you care about it
Vexual: Adlai: it's good info i guess, prolly gets digested in ways that I can't imagine
Adlai: so hard to imagine?
Vexual: I did like your startup, alcohol something
Adlai: i'd rather expect that my imagination wildly exceeds the mundane reality
Vexual: that too
danielpbarron: it's interesting see where the trades line up with conversation in here
Adlai: have any examples of that?
danielpbarron: yes actually

Vexual: too expensive didnt read but ive been bitten by a fireant
Vexual: terrible business
Vexual: mps 8ch endeavour has left evry free vestage of trilema reading barren
danielpbarron: that's neat
Vexual: how many creds does it cost to read an article?
Vexual: thought that might be the case
danielpbarron: although i burn most of mine reloading the same articles over and over again as i pull them up to link in forum posts and whatnot
Vexual: still the minimus sees you fit to the next halving at least
danielpbarron: the cost is negligible

assbot: Logged on 18-03-2015 19:38:35; mats: another fun fact: you can physically damage XP installations via ACPI parsing and NtSystemDebugControl, entirely in usermode
assbot: Logged on 22-07-2014 20:06:04; Mats_cd03: and, there is an ACPI table exclusively for telling Windows not to apply fixes for buggy hardware because its in a VM, and VMM emulation of the hardware doesn't include said bugs.
assbot: [MPEX] [S.MPOE] 5850 @ 0.00029979 = 1.7538 BTC [+] {2}
decimation: mats: that is pretty lulzy
decimation: there is a mysterious world that exists behind the nda's of american megatrends, intel, and microsoft
decimation: where they conspire to paper over tons of buggy shit
asciilifeform: not so mysterious to the dwarves in the mines of moria
asciilifeform: who toil in the darkness to dig out the nuggets of choice turd
asciilifeform: for highest bidder
decimation: also there must be a significant taiwan connection, because that's where the buggy hardware is made
decimation: where's our 'snowden' from that world?
asciilifeform: the atlas lies: taiwan is not actually a country
asciilifeform: rather, it is a u.s. aircraft carrier - which simply happens to be made of earth
decimation: heh yeah
decimation: and an army of local natives to staff it
decimation: so apparently the evidence is that you can buy loyalty by employing h1b serfs, not by paying contractors in a derpy bureaucracy

decimation: I wonder how many people actually design a server motherboard? probably less than 10
asciilifeform: decimation: designing a modern mb is really a 'model airplane' sorta affair

assbot: [MPEX] [S.MPOE] 67750 @ 0.00030123 = 20.4083 BTC [+] {3}
decimation: asciilifeform: yeah, I suspect about 80% of the design is pure 'reference implementation'
decimation: where each part manufacturer will 'application engineer' their peice
decimation: asciilifeform: ending up in a situation where 'nobody is in charge'
decimation: which explains why building computer hardware looks alot more like conspiracy than product design
mats: fun fact: the original iPhone shipped without privilege separation, and in tandem with a libtiff bug Chris Wade wrote an exploit that made it possible to root a user visiting a web page
asciilifeform: mats: aha. famously. lotsa folks cracked theirs using this
asciilifeform: notably, before there was an 'app store' from apple
mats: i remember
decimation: yeah interestingly apple outta be an exception, given the weight they can throw around
decimation: dijkstra: "My conclusion is that it is becoming most urgent to stop to consider programming primarily as the minimization of a cost/performance ratio. We should recognise that already now programming is much more an intellectual challenge: the art of programming is the art of organising complexity, of mastering multitude and avoiding its bastard chaos as effectively as possible.
