asciilifeform: (i loathe ada, but this needs a BOUNDS-CHECKED language where i can AUDIT THE BINARY and NO RUNTIME COMPONENT / GC - which leaves exactly ONE)
asciilifeform: this pointedly does not mean that i am interested in attempting to wash the smell of shit off a rando sickly rat from rando sewer.
asciilifeform: the idiots have an impenetrable armour plate

asciilifeform: and it would greatly surprise me if most of mircea_popescu's personal coin was not 1 step from mpex
asciilifeform: nubbins`: did you miss the part where i point out that ~all of MY coin is just as 'mpex'y
asciilifeform: nubbins`: fwiw pretty much all of my own coin would appear as 'mpex funds' per your analysis.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: variable. but there is a boojum! typically you have to sign 'noncompete' to get the severance. and you have to be sacked, can't leave on own free will. and the sacking can't be 'for cause', etc, etc.
asciilifeform: nubbins`: if kako disagrees with mp, i expect that he will put this in writing and sign ?
asciilifeform: incidentally, i am not seeing a bbet shareholder stampede
asciilifeform: and from my reading of the listing article, it appears to very clearly imply that it is mircea_popescu's thing and he can take the ball and go home, etc.

asciilifeform: nubbins`: what does the listing agreement say re: what to do, as a shareholder, if you think mp has been afflicted by martian brain parasites and broke the agreement ?
asciilifeform: nubbins`: this is not true, see the onetimepad thread, mp admitted that he made an arithmetical mistake once !

asciilifeform: want to fight with captain? pump bilgewater to cool down the rods ?
asciilifeform: you are on a nuke sub. captain, having been informed by six different crew members that reactor coolant has been replaced with pisswater, and the valve gaskets - with chewing gum, gives in to the temptation to run a test.

asciilifeform: mp calls artillery strike on own position. takes cover in bunker. the rest of tmsr - in ???.
asciilifeform: the enemies of sound money are uncorking champagne today.
asciilifeform: ring signature adds an astonishing amount of complexity, for dubious gain.
asciilifeform: i think about this story every time i turn on my compressor.

asciilifeform: who ever heard of a slow nuke. dontcha want the panic stampede?
asciilifeform: or what, was impaled ?
asciilifeform: trinque: what is the point of attempting this distinction?
asciilifeform: as we have it, comparing 2 tx is.. undecidable.
asciilifeform: but verily, s put the turingcompleteness in the ONE place it least belonged, the tx processor.
asciilifeform: it still isn't '1 way' - sig nonce, timestamp, scriptolade...
asciilifeform: asymptotic death.
asciilifeform: and if you allow chained tx, now you have to walk the mempool when checking the validity of ~any~ incoming tx.
asciilifeform: but where is the room-temp supercon.
asciilifeform: can haz example?
asciilifeform: pete_dushenski: what 10min?! whatever kept you from transacting like normal people, will keep you from moving the 'temporary' coinz
asciilifeform: and now also he had to empty it.
asciilifeform: l0l sounds like a job for a gimp script (tnyscheme!11)
asciilifeform: now i am tempted to say to client, when he asks for theta, 'it isn't that complex'
asciilifeform: 'it isn't the complex' !?!?!!
asciilifeform: sturles: you do not know what computational complexity refers to ??!
asciilifeform: this is called a complexity vulnerability, and presently i search for these, elsewhere and far away, for a living.
asciilifeform: the miners are free to collect clumps of tx off the street and find, at their own idiot expense, validly linked chains thereof.
asciilifeform: sturles: do you know what an ~algorithmic complexity attack~ is ?
asciilifeform: if it is in the mempool, it is not a parent !
asciilifeform: if it is not clear, i am speaking not simply of systemd removal, but dbus et al.
asciilifeform: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=03-03-2016#1421047 << the mempool system is screamingly idiotic, since day 1

Why publish the whole thing, plain text, all the time? What did you imagine would come out of that rabid, unthinking transparency besides empowered
asciilifeform: (for n00bz who think 'it is impossible to be sacked from usg' - it is actually very easy. one merely has to be employed as a contractor, of whom there is a dozen or two for every actual 'civil servant', and then you can be fired any hour.)
asciilifeform: i heard that when he died, the very few folks whose employment survived his retirement, were finally sacked.
asciilifeform: PeterL: it is entirely unsusprising that we have empty blocks

asciilifeform: on ordinary (well, 'pcengines' pancake) computer.
asciilifeform: had an almost-useful x86 decompiler before 'hexray'.
asciilifeform: (the ultimate thermonuclear version of this is to ~randomly generate~ a cpu arch, instantiate on an fpga ~and generate a compiler~, and compile for THAT! and i was very sad as a student to discover that one cristina cifuentes invented this long before i did)
asciilifeform: but this is simply yet another way for mosquitoes to win.

In March, 1993, a Wired magazine article by Simson Garfinkel described the GNU Project as "bogged down". GCC fork occurred a several years late

asciilifeform: phun phakt, the x60's original bios has 'computrace' infection, though this is mentioned nowhere in the docs, nor in the original 'bios setup' (normally, they do.)
asciilifeform: almost certainly because the compatibility was a bold-faced lie, and the cpu 'frequency scaling' thing doesn't work.
asciilifeform: a 'technical problem' is simply shorthand for problem where the solution is extremely well-defined. e.g., wire is broken, does not conduct, telegraph does not go. solution is technical - mend wire.
