(trilema) ben_vulpes: and i sure as heck /would/ clamber around on the thing poking at its innards before getting it off the delivery pallet.
(trilema) ben_vulpes: a) /delivery/, generally one levels etc after pulling it off pallet but w/e, b) it's not a total shoop in the style of that retro pornshot mircea_popescu posted with the apple kb?
(trilema) ben_vulpes: http://btcbase.org/log/2016-09-26#1548606 << looks like a standard delivery pallet for heavy stationaries
(trilema) ben_vulpes: what is that, inline version control?
(trilema) ben_vulpes: asciilifeform is the canonical "clojure suxx!" standard bearer but i don't think he has my contempt of familiarity
(trilema) ben_vulpes: phf: thank you
(trilema) ben_vulpes: w's the weather?
(trilema) ben_vulpes: BingoBoingo: https://youtu.be/zJvYo5pZEfE?t=200 << the good good kicks in around t=200

(trilema) ben_vulpes: !~later tell mod6 good to see that out in the wild
(trilema) ben_vulpes: freenode passwords are useless as an authentication mechanism. the republic has an authentication mechanism, it is gpg-via-deedbot.

(trilema) ben_vulpes: as opposed i imagine to sitting around producing knowledge by cheeping at each other!
(trilema) ben_vulpes: reliance on lecture as a teaching method!
(trilema) ben_vulpes: Examples of STEM classroom practices that contribute to a chilly climate are weed-out courses, courses that grade on a curve, a competitive environment, reliance on lecture as a teaching method, an individualistic culture, and comprehensive exams
(trilema) ben_vulpes: ahaha and i found the pp mircea_popescu was lampooning
(trilema) ben_vulpes: http://btcbase.org/log/2016-09-22#1547299 << "The disciplinary training of many physical scientists eschews alternative paradigms of knowledge production" ohohohahahahaha
(trilema) ben_vulpes only recognized this due to sins of a previous life
(trilema) ben_vulpes: pete_dushenski: commented, and also your blog still has the gravatar thing
(trilema) ben_vulpes: worked swimmingly for the headers, though!
(trilema) ben_vulpes: asciilifeform, phf: i'm giving up on variable length binary-types for now. my personal pons asinorum for this library is the task of defining either a type or a class whose value could be either u8, u16, u32 or u64, plus the headaches of entirely arbitrary-length scripts.
(trilema) ben_vulpes: ZhaneBoot you cishetshitlord
(trilema) ben_vulpes: but what about GnuKitchenSink?!!?1

(trilema) ben_vulpes: yeah and its retarded there as well.
(trilema) ben_vulpes: "but it's that way in c too!"
(trilema) ben_vulpes: in other jslolz i learned today that hyphens are not legal in js var names because not symbolicated on spaces and infix operators
(trilema) ben_vulpes: pete_dushenski: repliezed
(trilema) ben_vulpes: http://btcbase.org/log/2016-09-19#1545249 << probably going to reneg on this. binary-types handles the fixed-length types admirably, but i have been beating my head against the variable-length fields for days now to no avail.
(trilema) ben_vulpes: i haven't seen gribble quit in some time.
(trilema) ben_vulpes: more users, more problems.
(trilema) ben_vulpes: yeah actually now that you mention it, i'm abolishing users altogether.
(trilema) ben_vulpes: now that you mention it, 'log in' entails a link in yr email.
(trilema) ben_vulpes: that just makes it harder to get their money later.
(trilema) ben_vulpes: why would you ever want to log users out?
(trilema) ben_vulpes: today, i am electing to not implement a logout button.
(trilema) ben_vulpes: (another horribly formatted import from the old site, complete with broken images)
(trilema) ben_vulpes: contacts are definitely toast.
(trilema) ben_vulpes: not a bad idea
(trilema) ben_vulpes will ooze hydrocarbons from the eyes for days, probably
(trilema) ben_vulpes: found, last night. discovered its contents, this morning.
(trilema) ben_vulpes: in other satoshisms, i found a bottle of contact lens solution that turned out to have high vitamin e oil for topical use in it
(trilema) ben_vulpes: menial wwwtronix are just a matter of time
(trilema) ben_vulpes: i received a /spam/ comment.
(trilema) ben_vulpes: and comments!
(trilema) ben_vulpes: at least i have blog-unique footnote refs now
(trilema) ben_vulpes: the formatopalypse
(trilema) ben_vulpes: asciilifeform: rather sad, innit
(trilema) ben_vulpes really off now
(trilema) ben_vulpes: something like that
(trilema) ben_vulpes: but yeah, anything that has compact size parts needs custom readers and writers.
(trilema) ben_vulpes: (there's a fair amount of garbage in the thing i didn't feel like cluttering the discusison with)
(trilema) ben_vulpes: well yeah we were only talking about compact size!
(trilema) ben_vulpes: phf, yes, that's why i pass a 'byte-count' keyword argument to the read-binary method for script bytes
(trilema) ben_vulpes: generally try to keep the snr-damaging wailing and gnashing to my self.
(trilema) ben_vulpes: i have thought about this for at least ten seconds.
(trilema) ben_vulpes: did some late night back-of-the envelope on script length and miminum transaction size and i don't recall it breaching u32
(trilema) ben_vulpes: i don't even think you can have max compact size anything in trb.
(trilema) ben_vulpes: (and writer)
(trilema) ben_vulpes: i only intended to write the compact size reader, not take it out of bitcoinland.
(trilema) ben_vulpes: and the whole "if less than 253, that's the number, if equal then read the next octet, if blablabla" is that consistent across c-land?
(trilema) ben_vulpes: perhaps i misunderstand you, but once i have the type, sizeof, read-binary and write-binary implemented, then i'll have a "general purpose 'binary type object of count `compact size`'"
(trilema) ben_vulpes: phf: yes? i...know.
(trilema) ben_vulpes: at least from where i'm sitting today.
(trilema) ben_vulpes: asciilifeform: the maximally compact description is 3-4 'binary classes', and some hairy braindamage around the varint and scripts.
(trilema) ben_vulpes: once i have a stake in the varint it will go precisely nowhere.
(trilema) ben_vulpes: phf: is that particular 'compact size' anything like other hand-rolled variable length integers in c-land?
(trilema) ben_vulpes: noty, i would like to constrain the attack surface to satoshis retardation.
(trilema) ben_vulpes: otherwise what, write parsing of entire structure by hand? and then reserialization?
(trilema) ben_vulpes: asciilifeform: it is imho entirely worth the sweat
(trilema) ben_vulpes: conveniently, the generic for read-binary accepts other keys, into which i can pass a length for reading
(trilema) ben_vulpes: thank you very much.
(trilema) ben_vulpes: phf: i do believe that i have to hold onto first-octet, if it's less than 253 it *is* the length.
(trilema) ben_vulpes: phf: i am open, nay, desperate for alternatives
(trilema) ben_vulpes: far tidier asciilifeform ty
(trilema) ben_vulpes: funny, that's the exact same misread trinque made.
(trilema) ben_vulpes: my cases in particular?
(trilema) ben_vulpes: fell back to a setf from read-binary.
(trilema) ben_vulpes: i wasted an inordinate amount of time on various false starts in storing variable length fields.
(trilema) ben_vulpes: easily fixed. i'm more interested in correct use-of-binary-types
(trilema) ben_vulpes: (if the thing had an adult database, the tree would fall naturally out of foreign keys on height, from each block to its parents)
(trilema) ben_vulpes: while i have your attention, asciilifeform, am i doing this entirely incorrectly? http://wotpaste.cascadianhacker.com/pastes/azncd/?raw=true
(trilema) ben_vulpes: when i need to handle reorgs, i'll do so.
(trilema) ben_vulpes: and i believe that the thing hangs on to short chains
(trilema) ben_vulpes: (and only the ones in the main chain, atm)
(trilema) ben_vulpes: i'm leaning on dumpblock to get them in chain-order
(trilema) ben_vulpes: yes i recall
(trilema) ben_vulpes: yeah i have the vast majority of blocks serialized to disk and am trimming them apart.
(trilema) ben_vulpes is looking for the log line where asciilifeform made a comment about how the block structure was trivially deduceable from the source, a few days ago after i published the header serialization snippet
(trilema) ben_vulpes: oh trust me i fucking know
(trilema) ben_vulpes: i doubt it, as everything so far is little-endian, and only by convention reversed by early block explorers to show the zeros first or who the fuck knows i've never found a sensible explanation for reversing block hashes (and only block hashes!)
(trilema) ben_vulpes: so now to the source and hexdump to see how individual transactions are structured
(trilema) ben_vulpes: but the strange thing is that i read the sequence number where i expected to see the index
(trilema) ben_vulpes: however many f's you need for a u256
(trilema) ben_vulpes: obvs my thinger is broken in that the hash is wrong, but amusingly i get the sequence number as tx in index
(trilema) ben_vulpes: in other 'own thing', 'prototyping' and 'omgwtfbbq' nyooz, this is where i threw my hands up and went to bed last night: http://wotpaste.cascadianhacker.com/pastes/m8mjo/?raw=true
(trilema) ben_vulpes: i go for camo and not being noticed these days.
(trilema) ben_vulpes: i remember trying to make a point to a man who wanted to lock me up.
(trilema) ben_vulpes: mircea_popescu: "what dat" is a pregnant americanism, as for the second sentence, you need a rewrite to parse?
(trilema) ben_vulpes: the underlying joke of 'abject failure' is that was never even remotely a purpose
(trilema) ben_vulpes: http://www.wrightspeed.com/technology << perhaps not the dumbest thing i've seen!
(trilema) ben_vulpes: title song off that album is rather good.
(trilema) ben_vulpes: how do they go, after the showwwww

(trilema) ben_vulpes: i walk by some folks every morning who appear to still be alive, yet are entirely solidly insane.
(trilema) ben_vulpes: not starving is not crazy?
(trilema) ben_vulpes kicks rocks, whistles, looks around, wouldn't know the first thing about being out of touch with consensus reality
(trilema) ben_vulpes: wow what was the ic like
(trilema) ben_vulpes: some people go crazy, some people have crazy high tolerances, some people even eat a shitload over a long time and then one day break, the variance is wild and statistical claims cannot be made beyond "oh fuck might hose your brain under entirely unknowable circumstances but hey have fun with the tradeoff analysis kid"
(trilema) ben_vulpes: i suspect variance is high.
(trilema) ben_vulpes: if variance is high enough that number can very easily be bogus.
(trilema) ben_vulpes: i'm going to go out on a limb and doubt that there's enough data even on variation in human sensitivity to drugs much less by class and genotype to even be making claims about "LD50"
(trilema) ben_vulpes: is mescaline particularly titratable?
(trilema) ben_vulpes: what are good drugs?
(trilema) ben_vulpes: that's be quite nice.
(trilema) ben_vulpes: half compliment, half complaint.
(trilema) ben_vulpes: phf: i miss search quite a bit.
(trilema) ben_vulpes: just leave the usb plugged in
(trilema) ben_vulpes: don't bother installing the os

(trilema) ben_vulpes: covertress: "ethereum foundation"?
(trilema) ben_vulpes: adlai: yeah well that'd be an adult's bouncer, neh?
(trilema) ben_vulpes: it persists an irc connection in spite of whatever third-world problems your corporeal situation brings upon you.
(trilema) ben_vulpes: have you ever heard of a thing called a 'bouncer'?
(trilema) ben_vulpes: lol covertress jhvh1 is a bot
(trilema) ben_vulpes: asciilifeform: sounds terrific
