asciilifeform: ultima ratio regum (tm) !!
assbot: [MPEX] [S.MPOE] 94328 @ 0.00060731 = 57.2863 BTC [+] {4}
mircea_popescu: yes there may be a why somewhere. maybe there is. maybe they jacked off and spludged in that shape. none of your busienss in any case.
asciilifeform: something quite like that.
mircea_popescu: consider the problem of cannon in ww2. obviously, an -ev machinery IN OUR CURRENT PEACETIME TERMS.
asciilifeform: but how do we end up ^there from _here
mircea_popescu: at the time, its ev was UNDEFINED
mircea_popescu: there were like 6 capital allocators
mircea_popescu: did this mean 6 cannons total ?
asciilifeform: this is why i said 'like cannon' aha.
mircea_popescu: not even necessarily a likely or in any case the only stable solution
asciilifeform: was trying to think of some others
mircea_popescu: but the ev consideration, and the capital allocation consideration, and operations are three points forming a triangle
asciilifeform: on the off chance that one of them happens to be engineerable
mircea_popescu: the obvious one is the communitard "cooperative" thing socialists always rave about.
mircea_popescu: "we've surpassed money"
asciilifeform: where is the 'coop' z80 ?
mircea_popescu: like you know, the one in the gand story
mircea_popescu: well of fucking course it doesn't work
mircea_popescu: (but that's because it never was given a chance. you know, like al's thing)
asciilifeform: it tried, i have a bag of'em here
assbot: [MPEX] [S.MPOE] 9200 @ 0.00058431 = 5.3757 BTC [-] {3}
asciilifeform: but that was that
mircea_popescu: and i'm entirely at a loss as to why you'd want to engineer THAT
asciilifeform: (it is interesting that - afaik - no detailed production masks, notes, etc. from sov. clones of dec, zilog, etc. ever surfaced publicly during the collapse. quite possibly this is pure misfortune, the net did not arrive in time to catch'em, and/or no one digitized the materials)
mircea_popescu: "my faucet leaks so i wonder how this gravity curvature of spacetime thing could be made to work to my benefit"
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform if only that were the answer.
asciilifeform: for the mundane reason of wanting own si.
mircea_popescu: the true answer is much more sad than that.
asciilifeform: ^ that nobody gave half a fuck ?
asciilifeform knew that
mircea_popescu: so you don't want to own a faucet, instead prefer to alter schroedinger with your mind ?
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform no, not that.
mircea_popescu: you know what also was lost, exactly the same way, for exactly the same reason ?
mircea_popescu: the detailed procedures of industry, as employed in the 1800s.
asciilifeform: the top hats!
mircea_popescu: like, how they ACTUALLY made the fucking looms work.
asciilifeform recalls mircea_popescu's article re: same
mircea_popescu: the reason is... because... not having the much hated IP at the time,
mircea_popescu: there was 0 incentive for anyone wit ha clue to share.
mircea_popescu: so they took it to grave and fuck you.
asciilifeform: like dks and the lisp machine blueprints, aha
asciilifeform: (i confronted him personally, at his house, he said 'stuff it')
asciilifeform: and 'ip'
mircea_popescu: so you know... that's the large thing here. unless we manage to make the wot actually work for this purpose
mircea_popescu: we're in so many words proper fucked
mircea_popescu: because ip is going away, there's no fixing it.
asciilifeform: sorta what i was getting at
mircea_popescu: and without it, we're back to 1800
asciilifeform: (among other)
mircea_popescu: somewhere between maybe.
asciilifeform: 1300+kalash
asciilifeform: (for a spell anyway)
mircea_popescu: the only good news is that wot can in fact owrk for this puropose. it solves it completely.
mircea_popescu: whether it catches tho...
mircea_popescu: but there's worse flags to die under, so there's that.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: in somewhat related nyooz, i've been experimenting with what for now i call 'v' - a very dumb 'versioner' that i've been writing, which eats solely 0) pgp keys 1) patches 2) signatures for same, many-to-many mapping of (2) to (1)
asciilifeform: and walks graphz
asciilifeform: once actually useful, will post draft.
asciilifeform: (i don't grasp the need for notions like 'check in' or 'check out', etc. one instead throws patches and sigs in a pot, and then proceeds to ask for graph, and then select a leaf on said graph - and get a src tree out.)
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform this sounds like it.
asciilifeform: programmatizing gpg is a pain, though.
asciilifeform: (sorta like gcc..)

assbot: Logged on 08-08-2015 04:07:42; mircea_popescu: there was 0 incentive for anyone wit ha clue to share.
asciilifeform: involved workmen pissing in barrels to anneal
asciilifeform: and a serious lapse in quality when somehow the staffing rotated and this was not done
asciilifeform believes that this tale, if has any factual ground, is a corruption of some other thing that was actually physically plausible
asciilifeform: the basic root of the matter is that 'industrial production' is an abstraction ~on top of~ craftsmanship in the same way as the digital computer is an abstraction on top of analogue solid-state physics
asciilifeform: the abstraction is imperfect and necessarily leaks.
mircea_popescu: this is a recurring theme throughout the history of agrarian civilisations trying to internalise the industrial revolution - chiefly by putting a bit of their flesh i nthe machine. the jews supposedly making bread out of goy boy blood, the wine made by stepping on grapes, the sovet factory that ceased to work once they forbade huyspeak...
mircea_popescu: it's a thing.
asciilifeform: the last time this surfaced in a major way was when cnc lathe & mill were introduced, in the '50s (paper tape!) and engineers took to the notion that machinists could now be dispensed with
asciilifeform: this led to 'produce scrap metal at very high speed' (tm)

asciilifeform did guess that jp
asciilifeform: 'The picture becomes clearer when we hear the frequent use of 'moe' referring to specific elements or characteristics, such as 'weak girl moe,' 'young lady moe,' and 'glasses moe.' The meaning of 'glasses moe' refers to a taste that is taken with a character who wears glasses; furthermore, this taste fetishizes the feature itself of glasses-wearing. In this case, glasses are the 'moe' element.'

So they approached the Landlord and asked where Crypsa got their furniture. It turns out that yes, th

mircea_popescu: http://40.media.tumblr.com/52250483f30c6d161a3d9517789a4ac7/tumblr_n9eqdbprVo1tttg72o1_1280.jpg << quoted for the pained face and contorted body language of the derp in white. she KNOWS, like in her ovaries, that she's looking at exactly what she should be doing. she thinks, in her stupid head, that this is not something she could do. so she's in the physically detectable process of inventing contortions of nonsense to
mircea_popescu: "explain" and "make sense" of it all. because omfg, what if she just ditched the blouse o noes her mommy told her the sky would fall.
wywialm: margin calls might appear in real time, if the margin is not replenished quickly, the position is liquidated
wywialm: where quickly is defined in terms of price move
mircea_popescu: "quickly"
mircea_popescu: so it gets liquidated. what's that do for buyer ?
mircea_popescu: i bought 1mn in q4, yoiu're gonna give me 3/4 mn in q3 because hey, why not ?
mircea_popescu: im suing you.
wywialm: the liquidated contract is sold on the market at the market price
mircea_popescu: but you see what i mean do you ?
wywialm: yes, ultimately, the exchange provides reserves to cover for members' losses, which are planned to be strenghened by credit default swaps
shinohai: From: https://quedex.net/doc/security "The Cold Wallet is implemented on top of the Bitcoin Core client using watch-only addresses." <<< fail ?
assbot: Quedex Bitcoin Derivatives Exchange ... ( http://bit.ly/1TeFF2S )
wywialm: shinohai that is why i'm asking you - could you please explain?
mircea_popescu: this will be the bane of your existence, on the general theoretic front. because like it or not, the unappealing dilemma is, either offer "renegotiable contracts", which is roughly what you're describing, and which fails at the only job futures have to do (ie, ensure the buyer of specified amount of specified merchandise on specified date), or else full reserve, which will kill your speculators without which no market
mircea_popescu: can function (irrespective of what idiots such as the eu central bank think). so there is that.
mircea_popescu: but in point of fact, for your daily life, you'll have a much more annoying problem.
mircea_popescu: what btc price do you use for settlement ?
shinohai: wywialm: still analyzing
mircea_popescu: shinohai will require a coupla engineers always on to watch the watchjer. this is unavoidalbe, bitcoin is a pos anyway.
wywialm: currently - an average across 4 USD exchanges, with cutting out outliers
mircea_popescu: problem being the market's illiquid enough to be easily pushed. but that's not something you'll manage to fix or really should be fixing.
mircea_popescu: what's the meaning of "collaborating on" in this context ?
wywialm: i am the economist behind all this
mircea_popescu: are you an outside consultant on a salary, a board member with an equity interest, a volunteer academic, none of the above.
mircea_popescu: (note that deferred salary payments and other promises make you a 3)
wywialm: re spot illiquidity - i acknowlegde this, currency futures as well as commodity futures should have physical delivery and we're working on it
mircea_popescu: if your future doesn't deliver it has a hole in it, sooner or later it'll infect and puss out. anyway.
wywialm: 3) academic with deferred salary payments dependent of the performace of the exchange
mircea_popescu: why would you wish to risk your reputation (which, whatever you may think of it, is significant enough that you can come here and have my ear whenever you want to) on this thing ? for all you know you're reliving the neobee nightmare. you remember that ?
wywialm: i think it's a good idea, and i know personally people involved, and i needed your comments - how else could i get these?
wywialm: btw: thank you for kind words
mircea_popescu: why're these people involved not in the wot for instance ? who are they ? how do you know any word they say is true ?
shinohai: neobee provided so many lulz
wywialm: yes, i remember neobee very well
mircea_popescu: the way this usually works, and it has worked about 500 times to date with 0 variance, is that scammer gets a coupla sluts and a coupla "credible people" to contact respectable, well meaning folk, launches project. from the perspective of the public the respectable folk form an impenetrable visual barrier. from the perspective of said folk, the coupla sluts and couipla salesmen idem. and a year to a year and a half lat

mircea_popescu: n6 so say your story.
n6: working on it.
wywialm: mircea_popescu, i didn't expect this, but i'm thankful
mircea_popescu: was another guy did something similar, trying to remember
mircea_popescu: Duffer1 maybe.
wywialm: actually, there are two more issues i would like to ask you
n6: Started reading reading trilema about 2.5 years ago, and it was all, I could think about. But my understanding was lacking. so I didnt talk in b-a took it to all my friends, none of them seeme to care. but then one guy cyperpunk sort of guy... we talked about it for about 3/mo then he dropped off the face of the earth
wywialm: first,is the dual market model - we are utilising auctions on openings and closes. Do you have any thoughts on it?
n6: at some point he came back to a chan with just me and him and all he wanted to talk about was your site and doing mpex.. told him at first we didnt know anything we would just lose all our money to error or get robbed. but he kept pushing and I gave in and went to hook up with him in nyc
nubbins`: you went to hook up with him o.O
mircea_popescu: wywialm it's not an illegitimate approach. i can't evaluate how practically useful it'll be, but then again that's what you folks are in for right ?
mircea_popescu: n6 what's your first language ?
n6: english
n6: just very bad with it.
mircea_popescu: kk go on.
wywialm: second, is the stock options mentioned above - would you allow to issue options on S.MPOE, or would you allow creating an MPEx index to issue derivatives on it?
n6: we had a longer friendship then 3/mo and he was the one who told me about bitcoin forums (how i found out about mpoe-pr). anyway once I got to nyc, saw we both didnt know anything so pretty much told him I couldnt keep keys and we would lose all our money
n6: he still wanted to do it
n6: told him he should just do coinbr and leave me out of it
n6: said he was ok with losing all his money
n6: told him I wouldn't have anything to do with fiat only bitcoin and we would have to move out of the states to do it.
mircea_popescu: wywialm i'm not required to allow trading of options. for as long as you hold some of the underlying, you can structure its ownership in any way you wish. such as through trading options on it.
n6: he was also asking me to rep him in the wot ( told him he had to do that on his own )

n6: I'm not a user

mircea_popescu: n6 how would you help him then ?
wywialm: legally - yes, but you would be a stakeholder in some sense, so i'd rather do it with you knowing about it
n6: I was wrong. but your ideas saved me
nubbins` chuckles
nubbins`: i have 5 bucks says MP is getting a woman to read this back to him later
n6: I couldn't help him, thought he would do some reading on his own but all he wanted me to do was save posts for him to read.
n6: yep
n6: more then 5
nubbins`: your friend sounds like a chump
n6: even showed me how to save a post on my desktop.... into a pdf
nubbins`: no offense
n6: he isnt my friend he was someone pretending to be
mircea_popescu: nubbins` you lose.
wywialm: anyway, thank you for your comments
n6: sorry for how I acted, mind if i come back around?
nubbins`: n6 when you said "cypherpunk" i stopped caring :P
mircea_popescu: wywialm well i'm not entirely sure how that'd work, not like i'm against it or anything. but gotta come up with something specific.
nubbins`: n6 heck, pull up a chair
n6: nubbins` for good reason... but he was the only person around my level I could find to talk about this with.
mircea_popescu: nubbins` i always thought you're like the only cypherpunk here you know.
wywialm: sure, when technical stuff is ready i will let you know
mircea_popescu: n6 either i'm slow today or something's amiss. i don't get what exactly you think you did wrong from this story.
n6: I didn't interact with my first friend using gpg auth so someoen else just stepped in and was able too..
n6: we had only ever met online
mircea_popescu: so what, i'm the patron saint of sane ops ?
shinohai: tl;dr use wot next time
n6: yes
mircea_popescu: tell you what, wen i was about 10 a girl that really liked me in schooil called me on the phone pretending to be this other girl i really liked, and she tricked me into meeting at the movies.
mircea_popescu: i didnmt think to ask for a gpg sig. bought her an icecream and we even kissed!

mircea_popescu: phf "rapeworld". just because english tards use words doesn't mean much.
phf: i hope so, because the whole thing is toxic and oppressive
mircea_popescu: i think we'd greatly benefit from defining things here, i'm getting confused.
mircea_popescu: so, i see three things. 1) the actual rape culture as seen in "women are cattle" vory outlook on life and derivatives ; 2) the so-called "rape culture" wherein male dominance is generally recognised as natural within some bounds ; 3) the libertard nonsense, a recent reimplementation of the ancient socialist "great leaps forward".
mircea_popescu: i was comparing 2 and 3. were you thinking of 1 ?
phf: no, 2 and 3. i was saying that 3 is toxic and oppressive
mircea_popescu: i dunno, it's really just meaningless.
mircea_popescu: toxic, i suppose, if one's bolted down.
mircea_popescu: like the nut tree's toxic.
phf: well, you're not experiencing it directly, and it seems palpable here, in the real world. like i went to a beach a few weeks ago in americatown (ocean city, md) and the vibes are just nasty. sluggish girls with stooped shoulders avoiding any sort of eye contact or making nasty faces at you if you linger on them too long
mircea_popescu: so you say "hey, something bothering you" ?

assbot: [BTC-dev] UPDATE: v0.5.4-TEST2 Pre-patched Test Bundle : TestersNeeded! ... ( http://bit.ly/1DEslTm )
phf: ag3nt_zer0: raw didn't pen principia, that's just a persistent misconception, in FACT it was revealed to trinque in its complete form by the divine mother HERSELF (hail eris!) during some of his particularly strong ACID trips (10 strip, they said it was weak, so he took 6, damn, man, i'm seeing things ain't even come up yet), at which point he traveled back in TIME to spread the good word to the honest people of california. this and much mo
phf: re was explained in grant morrison's INVISIBLES series. get your facts, straight son, straight from the source. fnord.
asciilifeform: pete_dushenski: i wrote rotor for a reason
asciilifeform: the reason being that this is a waste of life
asciilifeform: yes, i could sit down and debug this
asciilifeform: but seven other people will come and each one will bring seven idiocies from his local os
asciilifeform: and each of those will need seven workarounds to be forced with red hot irons to behave in FUCKING STANDARD WAY
asciilifeform: rotor differs in that it is enough for you to find ~one~ box where it can be made to go
asciilifeform: and use that binary for the rest of your life if you like.
asciilifeform: i STILL don't understand why just about everybody insists on building stator.
pete_dushenski: asciilifeform: i know you wrote rotor for a reason, of this there is little doubt, but believe it or not, your instructions aren't dumbed down enough for me
pete_dushenski: they're not far off, mind
asciilifeform: pete_dushenski: if you're up to it, try building, i'll walk you through it while i'm awake
pete_dushenski: ok, lemme reinstall os and start fresh
asciilifeform: no need to reinstall os
asciilifeform: pick just about any linux box
asciilifeform: and go from there
asciilifeform: if you can get a bash prompt, you oughta get a working build.
asciilifeform: start the recipe and prod me when you hit a stumble.

mod6: hi pete_dushenski
mod6: Let me dig something up for you here quick.
asciilifeform: apt-get install -y libboost-python-dev
asciilifeform: apt-get install -y libbz2-dev
asciilifeform: apt-get install -y zlib1g-dev
asciilifeform: ^ for fucks sake
asciilifeform: neither stator nor rotor needs these!
asciilifeform: HAVING THEM ON YOUR BOX IS USELESS AT BEST!
mod6: Right, should be trying to bulid the Rotor, really.
asciilifeform: stator doesn't need them either !
asciilifeform: if your stator did not build before but builds after running the above, IT IS NOT STATIC !!!
mod6: However, I have seen that on Ubuntu & Debian if you build boost without libboost-python-dev boost will complain -- it will still compile, but it'll complain. it complains less with the python errors if it has that and the libbost-python-dev dependentcies installed.
asciilifeform: ^ you are using CRUD FROM OUTSIDE THE STATIC BALL
asciilifeform: defeating the very purpose of stator.
asciilifeform: introducing local turdlets over which you have no meaningful control.
mod6: er
mod6: yeah.
mod6: im mis remembering that from v0.5.3.1
asciilifeform: why even bother then.
mod6: pete_dushenski: don't bother with the testing for TEST2 (or anyone else), just work for now on building rotor.
pete_dushenski: okilee dokilee :)
mod6: I appreciate you trying to build it.
asciilifeform: i also appreciated. how else would we have learned that i am the last one alive with a sane linux install, for instance.
assbot: Okily Dokily - Simpsons You Only Move Twice - YouTube ... ( http://bit.ly/1Kbh9eb )
mod6: I can not wait until we get past all of this.
pete_dushenski: hehe i'm having fun !
pete_dushenski: being a lab rat isn't world's worst job after all
pete_dushenski: every day a new maze, then... cheese !
asciilifeform still wonders what that 'cheese' thing would smell like
ag3nt_zer0: phf: hahaha was that really in the INVISIBLES?
pete_dushenski: asciilifeform: napalm perhaps.
ag3nt_zer0: shit about wilson and all that?
mod6: asciilifeform: so, what my goal is, short term, is to produce a bundle that (similar to TEST2) is patched up through -verifyall that we can drop into the rotor, and use that for testing next.
asciilifeform: mod6: i think you already have this ?
asciilifeform: (rotor takes a stator)
ag3nt_zer0: I never looked at that comic... I saw Morrison speak and thought he was weird haha
mod6: yeah. but your bundle doesn't have the right directory structure, and doesn't really have a patching trail or anything.
asciilifeform: my rotor bundle doesn't come with a stator at all
asciilifeform: it has to be supplied by the operator
mod6: so i don't wanna seem like im replicating work; just trying to clean it up a bit.
ag3nt_zer0: i mean I get the whole thing he was on about but he was seemd stragley excited haha
mod6: right
mod6: it has to be downloaded seperately. thats fine. i did this today.
mod6: was thinking that next I'll work on a patched bundle up through -verify all with rotor. and then work ourselves up to a place where we feel comfortable.
mod6: do you think we should even bother with block dump/eat, -verify all?
asciilifeform: mod6: i regard them as useful
mod6: (in a "release")
asciilifeform: mod6: esp. for standing up nodes
asciilifeform: but also for debugging wedge states
asciilifeform: and generally.
mod6: so it wouldnt be a waste of my time to proceed in that direction?
asciilifeform: also it is possible to hash a blockchain using dumpblock
asciilifeform: (see ml for example of me doing so for a chain loaded from mircea_popescu)
mod6: yup, i recall.
asciilifeform: not a waste by any means.
ag3nt_zer0: phf: still lolzing haha thx fnord! fucking california haha
asciilifeform: i personally regard these as important knobs and their absence from the original bitcoin as an atrocity
mod6: ok. that's my next basic goal. build a patched bundle up through verify-all with rotor.
mod6: once we have that, and a new patch from trinque, i can complete my script and have a rotor that builds these test bundles with x86-64
mod6: make sense?
assbot: [MPEX] [S.MPOE] 8450 @ 0.00060043 = 5.0736 BTC [-]
mod6: :]
mod6: was nice to see rotor build cleanly today btw.
asciilifeform: didja have to use trinque's patch ?
mod6: yeah
asciilifeform: oughta be part of the official ball then
assbot: [MPEX] [S.MPOE] 1700 @ 0.00060043 = 1.0207 BTC [-]
mod6: was a gentoo/glibc environement -- compiled buildroot with the musl settings. didn't change anything to the "rotor" steps execept for adding the change to BDB configure options in trinque's message.
mod6: yah, I left him a note to re-send a patch with a detached sig to the ML. can help or do it for him if required, etc.
mod6: no giant rush tho.
phf: ag3nt_zer0: inivisibles is like a popcorn pulp version of pkd, illuminatus and magick. it's a fun read when you're 24, but definitely worth a read through if you're into that sort of stuff
ag3nt_zer0: it's no secret that california shares a magickal connection based on the law of correspondences to the Hindu goddess of destruction and the final age of dissolution, Kali... nor is it coincidence that the sun sets on the western world in KaliforniCaitlynJender - Bernardino porno bender blender
ag3nt_zer0: phf: i dunno; after he said he wrote his own reality and as he was writing the things he was writing were coming true I figured the comic couldnt be better than that...
