ben_vulpes: monthly is an adequate frequency for inspecting operators commitment to the project.
ben_vulpes: ofc but for logreaders.
ben_vulpes: not that i'm even going to look at the blockchain on the latter, but they should at least show up on the balance sheet, even if they are going directly into naphex' pocket
ben_vulpes: fin*
ben_vulpes: find
ben_vulpes: - tax payments
ben_vulpes: - description of expenditures
ben_vulpes: - monthly reports
ben_vulpes: not that anyone cares, but things i'd like to see pre-ipo:
ben_vulpes: also what constitutes expenditures?
ben_vulpes: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com//?date=06-10-2015#1292987 << only gripe is with paying shareholder divs without paying tax
ben_vulpes: mircea_popescu, Naphex: are the xotika reports living at predictable urls?
ben_vulpes: asciilifeform: i'd not waste the time.
ben_vulpes: u herd it here phurst!
ben_vulpes: implications left as exercise.
ben_vulpes: most recently, swift failed to ship with an 'either' type
ben_vulpes: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com//?date=07-12-2015#1337870 << love love love apple's creativity
ben_vulpes: http://www.contravex.com/2015/12/07/desperately-trying-to-put-the-auto-back-into-automobile-in-a-flaccid-attempt-to-put-the-relevance-back-into-motoring/ but don't mention lidar or radar to the guy, he won't get it, nor the timescale differences between extremely slow automobiles and extremely fast bugs http://log.bitcoin-assets.com//?date=06-12-2015#1337389
ben_vulpes: buenas noches
ben_vulpes: more stego'd private keys

ben_vulpes: what is this neighborhood anyways
ben_vulpes: lolk
ben_vulpes: heya herbi
ben_vulpes: indubitably
ben_vulpes: nowadays i just lie on the floor and enjoy the odd fifteen seconds alone in my head
ben_vulpes: once upon a time maybe
ben_vulpes: cannot endorse
ben_vulpes: not nearly enough lazers and drugs
ben_vulpes: i just love this kind of music mitch_callahan how did you know
ben_vulpes: yes yes
ben_vulpes: lezzgo
ben_vulpes: make more shit lethal and wide open to script kiddies
ben_vulpes: things*
ben_vulpes: put more computers into thing
ben_vulpes: one at 30mph and the other at 75
ben_vulpes: what like two
ben_vulpes: generations of driving lol
ben_vulpes: the bayesian driver has many orders of magnitude more.
ben_vulpes: but each driver has a very limited number of hours.
ben_vulpes: pete_dushenski: who has the quadrillions of driven miles?
ben_vulpes: mitch_callahan: doctorow did a story where $badpeople took control of a robot car to kill the protagonists
ben_vulpes: perhaps if the world of 3 cars per american were to continue, there'd be an economic point to getting normies off the road. entire us interstate system is a ridiculous boondoggle that's going away, along with the mass-market car, and drivers who can't handle an ambush.
ben_vulpes: just one? you don't want to propose a cascading failure?
ben_vulpes: they'll hurt someone i tell you
ben_vulpes: and while drinking even
ben_vulpes: how did humans ever drive with foggy windows indeed
ben_vulpes: faster than real time trajectory analysis sure aint a thing
ben_vulpes: sure if you say so pete_dushenski
ben_vulpes: mcdonaldsizing of driving. americans drive so poorly they need robots to help.
ben_vulpes: nope, whatever costs the insurance companies less.
ben_vulpes: turns out, actuaries make that call.
ben_vulpes: what is good enough?
ben_vulpes: they will eventually have lower failure rates than humans
ben_vulpes: mitch_callahan: doesn't matter whose
ben_vulpes: funny how easily the medallion hustle was knocked over
ben_vulpes: mitch_callahan: you're not excited to own a fraction of a self-driving fleet?
ben_vulpes is going off years-old hearsay anyways
ben_vulpes: cabbies sold 'em all for a shot at college
ben_vulpes: private equity owns most of those
ben_vulpes: pete_dushenski: lol are you serious medallions are inherited up there?
ben_vulpes: mitch_callahan: the monopolies
ben_vulpes applauds nsa missive
ben_vulpes: "The so-called “Cadillac Tax” will be levied in 2018 on companies that offer the “richest” benefits."
ben_vulpes: "As part of the Affordable Care Act, the tax is intended to help fund expanded coverage for the uninsured and to contain health care spending by discouraging employers from offering overly generous benefits." << thou shalt not enjoy life
ben_vulpes: mircea_popescu: "SOPS"?
ben_vulpes: power by laser << space elevator contests anyones?
ben_vulpes: anti-money-laundering?
ben_vulpes: > oscillations
ben_vulpes: > wind
ben_vulpes: yeah have fun with that control system handling the adjustable length tether
ben_vulpes: below the thing
ben_vulpes: with inertia
ben_vulpes: there will be a mass
ben_vulpes: it's under tension if only from gravity what is this
ben_vulpes: tether always makes for fun dynamic control problem
ben_vulpes: adlai: thanks
ben_vulpes: "the subject" << derplisps?
ben_vulpes: entirely unmentionable outside of the uranium mines.
ben_vulpes not surprised
ben_vulpes: but yeah the asbestos fibers on the insides of the gloves get into your blood and kill you
ben_vulpes: thing about non-cl lisp-like things is that just the few tools that clojure provides are enough for me to get my hands around the neck of, say, the whole wwwstack
ben_vulpes: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=03-12-2015#1335903 << super pseudo.

ben_vulpes: asciilifeform: more reversing?
ben_vulpes: KILLER OF THE MIND
ben_vulpes: I AM BECOME JAVASCRIPT
ben_vulpes: ;;ping
ben_vulpes: tejas already cannot afford infrastructure investment.
ben_vulpes: and decreased revenue death for saud before tejas? gimme a break.
ben_vulpes: saud vs ru?
ben_vulpes: low oil prices do not *help* the states.
ben_vulpes: does your intel tell you how many of the kids can be trivially sacrificed?
ben_vulpes: https://gcaptain.com/norway-faces-bleak-year-offshore << no-dick system on the rocks
ben_vulpes: sez who, pete_dushenski?
ben_vulpes: has been for some time now.
ben_vulpes: in other news, there is now a 'Chef' for mobile phones.
ben_vulpes: muxed meatphork
ben_vulpes: p. good pun even if accidental
ben_vulpes: > dig into it
ben_vulpes: its like 80% tappy screens
ben_vulpes: dude wwwdev is a fraction of the throughput
ben_vulpes: what, do people not make friends with dentists?
ben_vulpes: i never got the dental
ben_vulpes doesn't dance in places like that at home
ben_vulpes: because i had limited time and was drinking with the asshats all the other days?
ben_vulpes: shoulda just gone and humiliated myself at the milonga
ben_vulpes: tango lesson wasn't worth the twenty bucks either in retrospect.
ben_vulpes thinks
ben_vulpes: i wasn't playing those games at that age
ben_vulpes lecherous grin
ben_vulpes: "oh, you're going to send your daughter to st. mary's? awesome! i knew a bunch of girls from there in HS."
ben_vulpes: catholics. only good thing about catholics are catholic school girls.
ben_vulpes: jurov: i've got these quantum bitcoins that might work in arbing the proxies
ben_vulpes: java ide non?
ben_vulpes: ;)
ben_vulpes: "rubygems is down, can't deploy today"
ben_vulpes: jurov: cool! any arbportunities across the proxies?
ben_vulpes: which hilariously does not resolve?
ben_vulpes: note: not /haskell/ but /haskellnow.org/
ben_vulpes: anyways in "us becoming argentina" nyooz, today for the first time in my life a coffee shop failed to produce exact change
ben_vulpes: you'd probably pay them what they think they're worth
ben_vulpes: rates in ars are only ~20% below those in michigan, and that doesn't even start to include cost of doing business with argentines.
ben_vulpes: adlai: what /are/ you doing?
ben_vulpes: lmk when his lizardness does anything like that
ben_vulpes rolls eyes
ben_vulpes: http://jihadology.net/2015/10/12/the-archivist-unseen-documents-from-the-islamic-states-diwan-al-rikaz/ << relevant
ben_vulpes: goes back to the moldbuggian "no authority *or* responsiblity in uni!" routine
ben_vulpes: "when nothing more than a (privately administered) slap on the wrist was ever done to let everyone in the department know" << oh now they want public humiliation
ben_vulpes: "Many women are never raped, most women who are raped experience it only a handful of times, but in a sense it doesn't matter because the threats are constant, and women are trained to live in a state of hypervigilance of these threats"
ben_vulpes: oh i've got more
ben_vulpes: 12mb!?
ben_vulpes: you can't resist it
ben_vulpes: it's a pdf
ben_vulpes: asciilifeform come back you didn't even get to "culturally diverse teams that work" http://merage.uci.edu/Resources/Documents/Culturally%20Diverse%20Teams%20that%20Work%20WEB.pdf
ben_vulpes: don't ruin the surprise, stan!
ben_vulpes: but this is another undiscoverable entry in the great "mircea_popescu discovers how the kids are doing things today" saga
ben_vulpes: no no of course not
ben_vulpes: BingoBoingo: note the giant blob of json in the middle
ben_vulpes: oh wait is that technical elitism?
ben_vulpes: another hilarious thing is that apparently that medium author doesn't know how to make a hyperlink
ben_vulpes: that this is too much trouble for anyone but a vanishingly tiny fraction of people is totally lost on the outside world.
ben_vulpes: "no listen, we're super inclusive. get yourself a gpg key, get in the wot, read the logs, submit a patch, and we'll talk about it."
ben_vulpes: but hey reasons i love this place
ben_vulpes: "lived experience" not mattering a whit in contributions
ben_vulpes: which linked https://medium.com/@coralineada/why-hackers-must-welcome-social-justice-advocates-1f8d7e216b00#.8rx7bzmnn and https://tim.dreamwidth.org/1986615.html

ben_vulpes: in longdong in july

ben_vulpes: ahahueehhueahehea
ben_vulpes: "we develop at the source code level"

ben_vulpes: "just write the way you speak!"
ben_vulpes: terminal periods outside of parentheses please
ben_vulpes: 'disputit'!
ben_vulpes: ddos blackmail?
ben_vulpes: ^^ for mircea_popescu
ben_vulpes: "The neutralitie o this airticle is disputit."
ben_vulpes: might not be cookable.
ben_vulpes: nah, this ain't cooked yet.
ben_vulpes: well i know that i own m/n of the monetary supply today, and m/n+whatever at t sub whatever in the future
ben_vulpes: pete_dushenski: generational cycling
ben_vulpes: yes the monetary base is changing in size, but we all know to what degree.
ben_vulpes: if the market can algorithmically price inflation in though, does the notion of inflation even make sense?
ben_vulpes: sink or swim together
ben_vulpes: mircea_popescu: how would you have designed the "securing of bitcoin-gold" differently from the current mining scheme?
ben_vulpes: ascii_field: only the clojure mode.
ben_vulpes: ascii_field: i believe that to be major-mode dependent. see 'backends'.
ben_vulpes: http://www.bloombergview.com/articles/2015-11-25/want-to-get-richer-accept-refugees << "eat recycled food! it's good for the environment, and not that bad for you!"

ben_vulpes: ascii_field: i've gotten some decent mileage out of company-mode.
ben_vulpes: the creeping death
ben_vulpes: this week 'tis youtube
ben_vulpes: last week it was google maps
ben_vulpes just witnessed apple deinstall a second google app from his phone
ben_vulpes: disconcerting
ben_vulpes: stained the neilmed squeeze bottle yellow
ben_vulpes: once upon a time (when i still got sick, before i brought my own disease vector into the house) i dissolved some curcumin into the saline solution
ben_vulpes: BingoBoingo: yup. totally sterile, the way god intended it be.
ben_vulpes: ascii_field: i have *just* (as in the past week) located my wot's signal analyzer
ben_vulpes: BingoBoingo: they come in saline-under-co2-in-a-can versions
ben_vulpes: either way, good show chaps
ben_vulpes: or they'll do it anyways and print to cover the loss.
ben_vulpes: not until they install checkpoints anyways, and that'll cost far more than they really can spend.
ben_vulpes doesn't see the point on domestic travel
ben_vulpes: won't you end up in a situation a la bitcoin where the ip is encoded into the message itself?
ben_vulpes: jurov: phf's point though is that then you're relying on state /outside/ of gossipd to run gossipd. if i understand correctly.
ben_vulpes: phf: shows you what i know
ben_vulpes: i was under the impression that a first gossip packet was a signed nonce so that the implementation could drop all subsequent packets at its convenience.

benkay: some solution.
benkay naive to downside implications of leaving freenode a smoking crater
benkay: what needs doing - ircds on boxen and that's it?
benkay: fire freenode when
ben_vulpes: "the continued accretion of fiscal crises across these governments should be expected to continue..."
ben_vulpes: support for a clock
ben_vulpes: "We will deliver the first batch of Tixies early 2016 with dedicated support."
