ben_vulpes: meaning adopt the power ranger braindamage again?
ben_vulpes: "re-break"?
ben_vulpes: i want a man in the ground, i don't make that dependent on his wife squirting or w/e
ben_vulpes: asciilifeform: nodeps!
ben_vulpes: hey kakobrekla how much can i cram into a rating field?
ben_vulpes: one goddamn nail at a time
ben_vulpes: man all i can do is nail this coffin closed
ben_vulpes: ;;later tell lukejr listen you gotta stop it wiht this "i can tell miners what's right and wrong" bs
ben_vulpes: << lukejr
ben_vulpes: "Most likely this is caused by broken-by-design-for-profit mining code, but none of their stuff is open source AFAIK. Maybe more details will be known with time."
ben_vulpes: reddit, for all the silencing and muting of the actual bitcoin foundation, seems to be turning the corner on sense
ben_vulpes: ehueh
ben_vulpes: "They're not running full nodes because the current 500KB blocks are too big.
ben_vulpes: "Updating to the latest when what you have works is how you break things.
ben_vulpes: i never did anything, we all know that. joke's almost too easy.
ben_vulpes: primarily, me.
ben_vulpes is also curious to see how much "political capital" the derpdation burns today
ben_vulpes: mircea_popescu: anyone can narrow the rules, but whether that's "bitcoin" is an open question.
ben_vulpes: T.I.A.S. (tm) (r) (#emacs)
ben_vulpes: too bad, fuck them.
ben_vulpes: things either validate under 0.5.whatever or they don't.
ben_vulpes: i've not yet accepted this soft/hardfork duality.
ben_vulpes: frantic action is for the impotent.
ben_vulpes: i have a porch of meatwot and babes that actually need attending to.
ben_vulpes: mod6 if you feel compelled to elaborate on this, go ahead.
ben_vulpes: Bitcoin 0.5.3 is the canonical reference implementation. If a fork occurs and one side validates on the 0.5.3 codebase while the other does not, the chain that validates under 0.5.3 is the only valid chain.
ben_vulpes: asciilifeform: translation plox?
ben_vulpes: "Except BIP 66 received 95% support from the relevant group (miners). " << ehuehuehehueeueueueueueeeee
ben_vulpes: nigga pleez
ben_vulpes: so what, f2pool and phrenz dies next week?
ben_vulpes: simple rehash of the "let's probe network cohesion strength" fork
ben_vulpes: "The majority of hashing power is mining an invalid chain - it's not going to "win" - they're just wasting their effort." << euheuheuheuheuheheehueheuheuheehu
ben_vulpes: my position being "if your notion of a valid block has to patch 0.5.*, get fucked."
ben_vulpes: "However, this also means they're not checking the new BIP66 rule, and are now mining invalid blocks because of it. (another miner happened to create an invalid, non-BIP66 respecting block) If you're not using Bitcoin Core, you might be accepting transactions that won't be on the longest valid chain when all this is fixed." << curious to see if 0.5.whatever comes out on top at the end of this
ben_vulpes: r4ngn4phr0k
ben_vulpes: ph0rk
ben_vulpes: forkforkforkforkfork
ben_vulpes: FORK!
ben_vulpes: FORK?
ben_vulpes: punkman: have you tried my a47.sh?
ben_vulpes: phf: well hey like i said instructive
ben_vulpes: of the active users.
ben_vulpes: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=03-07-2015#1185122 << i grow curious about average hrs/user spent in eulora
ben_vulpes: asciilifeform: ^^
ben_vulpes: aha that's really nifty.
ben_vulpes: phf: (v. instructive among other good things)
ben_vulpes: asciilifeform: that cutblock c util was very instructive, ty
ben_vulpes: phf: ty for lisps
ben_vulpes: how does this thing even work
ben_vulpes: first link already 404d
ben_vulpes: muchas gracias for the hrdy link
ben_vulpes: leading any charge is risky and painful
ben_vulpes: asciilifeform: blockchain->sexprs or ragel parser
ben_vulpes: lol @ btc->sexprs, asciilifeform
ben_vulpes: i am *not* logged up
ben_vulpes: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=02-07-2015#1184638 << asciilifeform, could i get a re-link to that piece on SIDS/implied infanticide?
ben_vulpes: more later, i have 2 hours of ferry ride coming up
ben_vulpes to breakfast with meatfriends
ben_vulpes: you'll spend less, they'll work less, and your systems will be vastly better for not having mongo in them
ben_vulpes: man you can get a sql user (not an expert, mind you, but someone who understands it has used it and can avoid common retardations) at half time for approximately half the cost of some hotshit "full stack developer" who thinks mongo's a good idea
ben_vulpes: and because none of them were designed for that in the first place because a) it's hard and b) fucking retards write nosql stores for hackernooz points the algebraic layer turns out to never actually work. or it locks everything up while running queries that a real db would plan handle like a boss
ben_vulpes: much like any c project eventually grows a miserable half-assed implementation of an eighth of common lisp any nosql project eventually tries to implement relational alggebra
ben_vulpes: otherwise you're going to start running the kind of braindamaged queries your 'nosql' layer support and then glomming it all together into something representing a query in application code
ben_vulpes: dude if it has a hint of structure it belongs in a relational db
ben_vulpes: (and even that can be handled by mother postgres at rather high efficiencies these days)
ben_vulpes: i've yet to see the real world problem that a nosql db was actually the right solution to that wasn't actually a cacheing/cdn problem
ben_vulpes: no man
ben_vulpes: recede
ben_vulpes: decimation: i'm finally seeing the tide receed from mongo's highwater
ben_vulpes: you can even derp the raw binary into pg if you're so inclined
ben_vulpes: if you're storing as the appropriate ints, floats, doubles, strings etc
ben_vulpes does not see the problem with hashing values queried directly out of the db
ben_vulpes: but perhaps there's a good reason for writing the blocks directly to disk that i'm not grasping
ben_vulpes: the whole thing should be in sqlite at the very least
ben_vulpes: i've lost weeks, months of my life to the unqueriability of mongo and phriendz
ben_vulpes: fucking kv stores
ben_vulpes: p. sure the transaction indices were tossed for space saving reasons aka shitgnomery
ben_vulpes: i was under the impression that it was either not relational or was only being used in bitcoind as a kv store
ben_vulpes: huh bdb is actually relational?
ben_vulpes: has anyone verified the full chain as puked out from asciilifeform's `shitblock`?
ben_vulpes: if you had the whole blockchain querieable in postgres, you could infer account balances in the usual fashion and sell reads over a pg connection
ben_vulpes: attn aspiring asseteers!
ben_vulpes: decimation: now is when i confess to a quarter-implemented blockchain->relational db importer
ben_vulpes: problem is chips not boxes
ben_vulpes: by the time that happens, the two'll be indistinguishable.
ben_vulpes: this torture won't be performed by the usg, but regular ol' bandits.
ben_vulpes: and so everyone quakes in their boots and lines up to pay or report their neighbors or whatever it is that they want today
ben_vulpes: and perhaps this is the hallmark of fascist states - how would I know, only recently having started to crawl out from under my brainwashing - that they can't possibly deliver on their promises of complete surveillance (let's just take tax collection for one tiny slice of the thing), but they freeze any individuals assets on a whim to prevent their fighting back on tax charges.
ben_vulpes: maybe changing -> affecting
ben_vulpes: its this terrifying beast that in the large is incapable of changing anything, but should its eye orient towards any individual woe unto them.
ben_vulpes: how else to maintain the illusion that the whole thing matters.
ben_vulpes: in that sense obab (as proxy for the usg) does in fact own my company to a far greater degree than i ever can
ben_vulpes: obligatory reference to "owning a thing means being able to destroy it"
ben_vulpes: right, that's the real test.
ben_vulpes: no but no but no but
ben_vulpes: no man you just don't understand how the world works
ben_vulpes: plus drones!
ben_vulpes: and osama
ben_vulpes: and killed bitcoin
ben_vulpes: and the recovery
ben_vulpes: and cash for clunkers
ben_vulpes: but obama fixed gay marriage
ben_vulpes: having trouble understanding why big money would put him on the throne
ben_vulpes: tough gedanken
ben_vulpes: only solution is to burn everything in sight that pisses one off.
ben_vulpes to the augean stables
ben_vulpes has binaries to copy between wordprexen
ben_vulpes: "it's not me, it's the black hole"
ben_vulpes: didja read the most recent orlol asciilifeform posted?
ben_vulpes: decimation: i'm just looking at the we/i thing
ben_vulpes: "These statements strike us as being crazy and misguided. And for good reason. I have met some of these elites." << is dood schizo or am i reading too much into things
ben_vulpes: actually imagining that is probably what got them all het up in the first place
ben_vulpes: danielpbarron: you pissed them off just by being seen with chicka? imagine their rage if you'd /slept/ with her!
ben_vulpes: i never got the static build on os x
ben_vulpes: <asciilifeform> bonus points for testing on heathen compilers << rather
ben_vulpes: fun with coordinate system transforms!
ben_vulpes: i never had to drop the switch, but it did take a couple of swipes at me
ben_vulpes: only way to get work done with *that* kind of robot is to put it into slow mode and hold dead-man switch
ben_vulpes: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=01-07-2015#1183894 << see i did the same thing but with a motoman up20, and only for like a day
ben_vulpes: * ascii_field mentally blows dust off his unwritten magnum opus re: ternary computing, 'tertium datur' << never have i been so hooked on so much promiseware
ben_vulpes: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=01-07-2015#1183439 << lol fess up dpb i want to hear this story
ben_vulpes: neat parallels to parasitism in nature.
ben_vulpes: <mircea_popescu> yet another place where bitcoind and kernel merge. << linux's fate: hosting bitcoin.
ben_vulpes: <ascii_field> (thing stows blocks in real time, never erases. see src) << i missed this, somehow. link me?
ben_vulpes: <decimation> ascii_field: shit, you are right, the amazon s2d is just a pretty TLS wrapper around the openssl crypto turd << one stops being surprised eventually
ben_vulpes: <mircea_popescu> who wants to run an editor that can open the net ? << why wouldn't your editor connect to the net at your command?
ben_vulpes: people raise such idiots
ben_vulpes: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=01-07-2015#1182919 << why? and how can i possibly evaluate any advice in this context?
ben_vulpes: <mircea_popescu> http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=30-06-2015#1181766 << not worth a thousand words eh ? << only maybe if well curated, but that breaks the whole algorithmic share allocation routine
ben_vulpes: madison dillon needs some practice
ben_vulpes to bed, and tomorrow's blocknews
ben_vulpes: hands to the keyboard, minds to VN, lives to the altar of technology.
ben_vulpes: 'tis a messy business. men lose hands, minds and lives.

ben_vulpes: asciilifeform would love to sleep forever, i would like to program in lisp all day
ben_vulpes: java too likely
ben_vulpes: objc/dom tech, BingoBoingo
ben_vulpes: and the whole thing implodes
ben_vulpes: we'll be writing swift and javascript's successors until linus goes insane while still at the helm
ben_vulpes: but i'm a reluctant frontend guy to begin with.
ben_vulpes: i'm uninterested in anything new that touches the dom
ben_vulpes: di i still have to fuck with the dom in webasm?
ben_vulpes: sharp lisper might be able to sell software in that space.
ben_vulpes: can that be a common lisp runtime?
ben_vulpes: webasm huh?
ben_vulpes: (because "'we'll iterate on it, instead of asking the engineers")
ben_vulpes: (that arrive wet)
ben_vulpes: (to deliver a pair of socks that nobody asked for)
ben_vulpes: and i say that as a guy who duct tapes jet fighters to submarines
ben_vulpes: it just takes the "duct tape the jet fighter to the submarine" mindset to a revolting degree
ben_vulpes: i'm starting to wonder of 'clojure all the things' isn't a poettering-smell
ben_vulpes: good god man there are so many layers in that thing
ben_vulpes: trinque: long day
ben_vulpes: oh naaaaitve
ben_vulpes goes to read trinque's thing
ben_vulpes: funkenstein_: "hammered"?
ben_vulpes: trinque: i haven't done clj->js in 5-10 months, so everything i know is probably stale
ben_vulpes: trinque: you probly want reagent if it isn't rotting in place
ben_vulpes: should be legal! let the chumps get chumped.

ben_vulpes: no, i'm just going to put everyone involved with the piloting of vehicles out of work
ben_vulpes: i'm speshul tho. i'm cool and i get to drive my car as much as i want :P
ben_vulpes: stop burning all the fucking oil to get your dumb asses around!

ben_vulpes is unlikely to get dedicated testing time over the weekend
ben_vulpes: asciilifeform: heck of a find, brownie!
ben_vulpes: trinque: waiwut?
ben_vulpes: (and imagine my disappointment when you didn't name it shitblock!)
ben_vulpes: and flip-cover for eatblock because state of running bitcoinator is mutated by its use, while the dumpblock does not mutate and so does not need a flag?
ben_vulpes: living well in NA is all about the art of judiciously applied delicately spun hydrocarbons
ben_vulpes: how about that eatblock patch?
ben_vulpes: why am i talking about bay crap
ben_vulpes: what has happened to me
ben_vulpes: and i'm being dramatic about the plastics, there's a many-in-one stroller thing that a relative mentioned getting for us

ben_vulpes: but in maroon wood and white leather
ben_vulpes: lady v did procure a 4ft tall giraffe recently, though
ben_vulpes: no sense in accelerating the hedonic treadmill any faster than is strictly necessary.
ben_vulpes: no no, staying in the current hobbit hole.
ben_vulpes: well, ty
ben_vulpes: we? i.
ben_vulpes: you can't see it for the trees, but we have clients in a building across the river that are *far* higher on the bezzletrough than us
ben_vulpes: http://imgur.com/6nxSOBo << today's view from the office patio
ben_vulpes: i'm just describing the car. can't really generalize about groups
ben_vulpes: don't knock the rooftop patio mang
ben_vulpes: i have to imagine that's what they drive into town from.
ben_vulpes: driven mostly by harried sunken-chested polo-shirt wearing dads
ben_vulpes: yeah, all over here as well.
ben_vulpes: i've no idea how i got it into my head that it was called the model t.
ben_vulpes: "o hai i bought a thooper expensive babywaggon"
ben_vulpes: s/retarded/don'treallycareaboutmoderncarnamingconventions
ben_vulpes: the model s is a betamobile
ben_vulpes: no, i'm just retarded.
ben_vulpes: aand pete, i'm talking about mr. musk's overpriced station wagon
ben_vulpes: http://cascadianhacker.com/blog/2015/06/21_a-tour-of-bitcoind-booting-to-its-first-thread.html#ak47.sh << i've been working with this. it uses bash, so less portable, but it fails on any error which makes it easier to debug, as the script exits whenever anything goes wrong
ben_vulpes quakes in boots
ben_vulpes: and yet bitcoind builds
ben_vulpes: btw - i've yet to get boost to compile and exit 0
ben_vulpes: Jautenim: yeah, i ran into that one as well
ben_vulpes: "filein >> block;" << this overloaded operator still baffles me.
ben_vulpes: curious why *you think* it needs explicit enabling.
ben_vulpes: i don't think that it's *unnecessary* or anything, i'm just curious as to why it needs explicit enabling.
