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: 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: 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: asciilifeform: what's the reasoning behind the -caneat flag?
ben_vulpes: !s crypto enthusiast
ben_vulpes: la serenissima runs on deficits :P
ben_vulpes: there's your research task for showing up
ben_vulpes: !s colored coins
ben_vulpes: tcrypt: syn
ben_vulpes: decimation: d'you know of anything that does that?
ben_vulpes: who're you?
ben_vulpes: !up tcrypt
ben_vulpes: there's about a mile of difference between an 'app' that does god-knows-what on your iPnohe and a piece of code that...can be inspected.
ben_vulpes: ah they're probably deprecating some old api, pete_dushenski
ben_vulpes: you can tell me to rtfm my feels won't get all hurt :P
ben_vulpes: i wonder what red/black/grey boxes around the files mean.
ben_vulpes: ;;later tell pete_dushenski hypothesis re: model t, i suppose would be better
ben_vulpes: ;;later tell pete_dushenski hypothesis Model T: "i am a beta fuck"-mobile. thoughts?
ben_vulpes: Big Gulp ™
ben_vulpes: ahahahaha
ben_vulpes: decimation: the bitcoind sources
ben_vulpes: this does make for an interesting question of what to do with the chain after an interstitial block has been snarfed - reverify everything? do nothing?
ben_vulpes: asciilifeform ascii_field: ProcessBlock should probably not do that thing where it refuses to import already-seen blocks, instead it should obey its master and snarf up whatever
ben_vulpes: anyways, out for real now.
ben_vulpes: gabriel_laddel: the profit is in amortized costs of education over wot
ben_vulpes: (^ more or less kills headers-first abomination)
ben_vulpes: anyways, i'm off to grill chicken and romp dog with other junior members of the clan
ben_vulpes: gabriel_laddel: 'tain't about the youngsters except insofar as their parents are in the wot
ben_vulpes: how would i see what this thing contains
ben_vulpes: libboost-all-dev << what is this horror
ben_vulpes: in other news
ben_vulpes: scratches through shitpile for 'jam today' tickets
ben_vulpes: it'd make introspection easy!
ben_vulpes: as i said: 'if you care'
ben_vulpes: dickbutt.ascii hyuuuu
ben_vulpes: anyways asciilifeform if you care there are still misalignments
ben_vulpes: pissing in mother crypto.
ben_vulpes: just say no.
ben_vulpes: gribble did this.
ben_vulpes: trinque: wotclassifieds!
ben_vulpes: let's fight about whitespace rules
ben_vulpes: line number of patch
ben_vulpes: not that it matters i don't imagine
ben_vulpes: i see a tab on 36
ben_vulpes: what's with the odd indentation on 35/6?
ben_vulpes: dude i've prayed for a thing like this for some time
ben_vulpes: yaay!
ben_vulpes: disappointing.
ben_vulpes: trinque: does it have 'naughty dog' as well?
ben_vulpes: rule 48.
ben_vulpes: caz has a shaving fetish, gets razor burn, tries not to cry, cries a lot
ben_vulpes: great enumeration of badness
ben_vulpes: asciilifeform: Misbehaving is p lulzy
ben_vulpes: <mircea_popescu> http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=28-06-2015#1180430 << another worthy direction yes. << not jam tomorrow, then?
ben_vulpes is still curious about the block-vomiting process, and how bastards make it in
ben_vulpes: "blonde, brunette, redhead..."
ben_vulpes: ah have ye tested that yet?
ben_vulpes: and if thbox serves at a high bandwidth few bastards and blocks that all verify, why not prefer it over others?
ben_vulpes rolls eyes
ben_vulpes: i speak of mircea_popescu's desired behavior.
ben_vulpes: dun think the thing has a formal name yet. but that which is responsible for grading peers while syncing.
ben_vulpes: "peer ranker"
ben_vulpes: (or is that another "jam tomorrow"?)
ben_vulpes: behavior tracker has my attention at the moment.
ben_vulpes: that, sir, is over my pay grade.
ben_vulpes: i'm not actually entirely certain where the gconv stuff is coming in
ben_vulpes: i've not yet mapped its circulatory system, much less how it excretes
ben_vulpes: the thing at this point lies spread apart on my vivisection table
ben_vulpes: i surmise
ben_vulpes: i would actually be *surprised* if you did produce the same disk bytes via a network cslurping
ben_vulpes: there's no guarantee that you'll produce the same blockchain on disk, though.
ben_vulpes: how could one tell? ordering of blocks?
ben_vulpes: cazalla: would benefit from a chart
ben_vulpes: http://btc.yt/lxr/satoshi/source/src/main.cpp#1424 << processblock, third line of which calls pblock->GetHash()
ben_vulpes: decimation: i'm struggling to understand how http://btc.yt/lxr/satoshi/source/src/main.cpp#2193 results in a data structure that ProcessBlock can understand
ben_vulpes: is that `CBlock block` a contiguous-ish memory section?
ben_vulpes: maybe? perhaps i'm speaking poorly of ignorance.
ben_vulpes: but how does it know what to serialize the block message into
ben_vulpes: just strikes me as a bit of black magic that a CDataStream can deserialize itself into a CBlock with just an overloaded right shift operator
ben_vulpes: maybe someday i'll understand what precisely's going on in serialize.h
ben_vulpes: (and anyone else who understands cpp)
ben_vulpes: asciilifeform, trinque, decimation: how does http://btc.yt/lxr/satoshi/source/src/serialize.h#1141 implement serialization such that it writes correctly-shaped data to CBlock here: http://btc.yt/lxr/satoshi/source/src/main.cpp#2193
