asciilifeform: wyrdmantis: for instance, there is more than one signature in a block !
asciilifeform: wyrdmantis: likewise, you must count not only data but code pages;
asciilifeform: wyrdmantis: on top of this, but not last, is the fact that context switches happen and your cached pages are regularly evicted to admit crud
wyrdmantis: ok, so this is why bigger blocks and verification time don't scale linearly?
asciilifeform: roughly.
asciilifeform: if interested in the subject, try to study - experimentally - how your cache works. recent (2007+) cpu from both major houses make this feasible.

punkman: BingoBoingo: what do you think about inhaling glycerine/propylene-glycol?
BingoBoingo: A little soap can't be that bad for the lungs
phf: asciilifeform: i think there's a range. there's an ecigar (not sure how it's called) place next door, which is favored by asians and blacks. actually pipes are large and made out of machined parts, but produce massive amounts of smoke. they source nicotine oil separately, and my impression is that you can get anything from dodgy chinese stuff with flavors like "coca cola bubble gum" to u.s. local hand extracted tobacco oil

mircea_popescu: kernel gets a timeslicer for itself anyway
asciilifeform: yes, you still have interrupt handlers.
mircea_popescu: so it can run "this timeslicing is no longer supporterd please run upgrade"
asciilifeform: but it is perfectly feasible to run something like bitcoin as an embedded proggy.
mircea_popescu: no argument. was just pounding the more theoretical side of things.

asciilifeform: sooo i was out walking by the uni, and found a thumb drive
BingoBoingo was surptised when joining #bitcoin-asset-trades just how much stuf didn't make the cut for arriving here
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: Interesting trap in thumbdrive?
asciilifeform: full of 'business school' homework from unpronounceably-named chinese exchange students
asciilifeform: they were assigned 'digital currencies'
asciilifeform: and the required reading dir is full of 'whitepapers' concerning 1990s-style centralized shitpal-esque 'coins'
thestringpuller: asciilifeform: i'ma let you finished but what level of hotness are the sorority girls at said uni?
asciilifeform: some chick cries now for lacking her powerpointz
asciilifeform: thestringpuller: all levels
asciilifeform: thestringpuller: but very commonly they (at least the native ones) have 'agricultural face'
asciilifeform: or whatever it is called here
mod6: haha
thestringpuller: diversity at its finest.
thestringpuller: mod6 def knows the type.
asciilifeform: it's not even an ethnicity, but more of a state of mind

gernika: BingoBoingo: something's wrong with this sentence I think: "Vaizey instead want to part the buyer and his purchase to part in a sale as has happened previously when 'cultural' export bans have been applied to artifacts."
BingoBoingo: gernika: thanks, fixed
