ben_vulpes: metered 'eval'
ben_vulpes: "write 0xd3adb33f"
ben_vulpes: "open socket to 127.0.0.1"
ben_vulpes: i don't have a good enough model to propse anything yet, hence the questions
ben_vulpes: how would someone in the wot interact with the uci; operation by operation over irc? shoop a script in uciasm for execution and billing upon completion?
ben_vulpes: and per 'storage', be able to read from that socket and write bytes to disk, for example
ben_vulpes: mircea_popescu: http://thebitcoin.foundation/tickets/UCI_tickets.html#6 << what all would be encompassed by 'networking'?

ben_vulpes: that lines are either perpendicular or parallel to gravity
ben_vulpes: i've read a few interesting ways of attacking the problem, and the wrinkles that crop up (brightness variation, for one), and one *hilarious* set of assumptions that some people make in the name of performance
ben_vulpes: can't tell how poorly without actually trying to duct-tape more open sores together, though.
ben_vulpes was idly hoping to waste time on kalman filters in preliminary research but much of the heavy lifting seems to have been done already.
ben_vulpes: the term of art is "structure from motion".
ben_vulpes: but yes. "drones".
ben_vulpes: tracking* possible points...
ben_vulpes: pete_dushenski: i'm talking about the integration of imu data, possible points in three-space from frame to frame, among just a few things that go into turning a set of stills into a painted point cloud
ben_vulpes: 'lemming together'
ben_vulpes: and it's *still* too newfangled hipster by some metrics.

ben_vulpes: their 'business' packages are similarly utter scamolade.
ben_vulpes: why would one expect 'nice' of company whose revenue is biodieseling couch potatoes?

ben_vulpes: doctor + bullets, always a fun time.
ben_vulpes: also good
ben_vulpes: 'you have died of dysentery'
ben_vulpes: nothere.coveredwagon

ben_vulpes: i don't even know where the servers are going to go yet.

ben_vulpes: unfortunately there are like 12 functioning brains wandering around north america
ben_vulpes: they just did, to anyone with half a brain

ben_vulpes: i ain't even mad anymore, just amused, and pleased at how easily the whole thing should melt apart.
ben_vulpes: gimmeafugginbreak
ben_vulpes: > responsible for plans for 'cutting edge' us jets
ben_vulpes: > no backups
ben_vulpes: the no backups thing is ultralarious

ben_vulpes: well, at this time!
ben_vulpes: tis a marvel
ben_vulpes: right?
ben_vulpes: there's also lockheed martin for a notbad bundle and zero risk

ben_vulpes: phf: i dun really 'burn' anymore
ben_vulpes: but i do like my summer lake stop
ben_vulpes: more like 10
ben_vulpes: oh it ain't 35 hours at all
ben_vulpes: no, one drives it down
ben_vulpes: just looks like a decommissioned avis bus with a platform on top during the rainy parts of the year
ben_vulpes: one bus is fully collapsible
ben_vulpes: phf: bless the borg
ben_vulpes: THE BESTEST RIGS
ben_vulpes: in big hulking slow gas guzzling rigs
ben_vulpes: 35 ish hours?
ben_vulpes: that capital is recoupable yo
ben_vulpes: i think that's why i like working on the mvs
ben_vulpes: not that any bolt is reusable after that kind of fire tho
ben_vulpes: i learned on the mutant vehicles before doing any pyreworks, so have a built-in preference for reusable steel stuffs
ben_vulpes: factors of safety come in many flavors
ben_vulpes: pff if you're a girl
ben_vulpes: mnah, mortise and tenon has the beam itself shaped into tongues and grooves to sit into itself
ben_vulpes: at right angles
ben_vulpes: each beam has 2 bolts through it
ben_vulpes: but it is rigid as *fuck*
ben_vulpes: i swear i didn't invent this one!
ben_vulpes: i'm trying to dig up the original source of this design and completely failing
ben_vulpes: the design was 3 bolts through 3 beams at each intersection point
ben_vulpes: phf: naw i mean like overtorquing and wallowing out a destructive fastener hole.
ben_vulpes: or perhaps some do, i never got to party with the 3lite sillicon valley crowd
ben_vulpes: one does not haul a thing to the playa unfurled.
ben_vulpes: mircea_popescu: perhaps, but my pyres held numerous people and were assemblableable by noobs on drugs with a minimum of oversight.
ben_vulpes: vibration drops your axial friction, and to a degree your planar friction.
ben_vulpes: kinda like the "don't break and turn" at the same time mantra.
ben_vulpes: useful when you have a nut on the far side. the hammer helps to overcome static friction on the bolt/nut planes, thereby letting you twist the bolt a little further.
ben_vulpes: it is perhaps forgivable if you Swear to God to not back the lag bolt out and ever use the hole for anything ever again, but that is straight up dangerous because you cannot make guarantees about who will do what with your holes out of your sight.
ben_vulpes: do not impact driver your destructive fasteners.
ben_vulpes: 2020 something something egalitarian treatment of UCI nodes
ben_vulpes: 2016, "put moxie marlinspike in gossipd!"
ben_vulpes: 20-something, "put wifi in the cardano!"
ben_vulpes: storage is a consumable and you...mk.
ben_vulpes: where hdd...rots slower?
ben_vulpes: sure, but ssd sits, rots.
ben_vulpes: asciilifeform: why do you dislike the plates so much?
ben_vulpes: or 'excavator' -- with treads and arm and bucket?
ben_vulpes: figure out? were controls marvelously different from controls of other motorized things?
ben_vulpes: what halfway curious kid hasn't climed all over an excavator
ben_vulpes: "might be interesting to look at" as a legal problem cracked me up when i first learned of it
