(trilema) thestringpuller: cazalla: Seems all of the BIPers (Gavin Hearn Garzik et. al), talked about this.
(trilema) BingoBoingo though after last night believes FYIAD may become a standard #b-a retorn to hearnianites
(trilema) asciilifeform: kinda like what gavin&hearn make.
(trilema) ascii_field: c) it is necessary so hearn can bolt on tx blacklisting later
(trilema) shinohai: LOL @ Hearnia
(trilema) BingoBoingo: lol, the Hearnia mempool solution is randomly drop tx so that all spam has a home somewhere https://archive.is/NgRdK
(trilema) BingoBoingo: gabriel_laddel: The difference between what you do now and what Mike Hearn does is 2013 and 2015. Mike Hearn knew his mission was to destroy through evangalism. You may no that, you may not but that is still your net effect.
(trilema) BingoBoingo: <gabriel_laddel> mircea_popescu: the people who authored CL thought of your use case. << AND yet you Hearnia around the details
(trilema) trinque: I'm plainly accusing Hearn of not being above putting something malicious in a binary, aside from the gunk they're putting in the source.
(trilema) trinque: they have been shilling for Gavin/Hearn and XT since the beginning
(trilema) assbot: BitBet - The Hearn-Gavin scamcoin will fizzle in 2016 :: 101.11 B (98%) on Yes, 2.56 B (2%) on No | closing in 9 months 3 weeks | weight: 94`968 (100`000 to 1) ... ( http://bit.ly/1JoYZVq )
(trilema) asciilifeform: then again, why would hearn need to host on his own box ??!
(trilema) thestringpuller: 16:42 <@hearn> that's just a normal home connection, not even the fastest available
(trilema) thestringpuller: 16:42 <@hearn> who said they had to? i don't have a dedicated connection. got 25 mbit/sec upstream
(trilema) asciilifeform: andychase: this pointedly does not include adding any subcomponent where gavin, hearn, & co had any say in making.
(trilema) BingoBoingo: Because Hearn discusses Java
(trilema) mircea_popescu: hearn being around makes me not even miss armandi or taaki all that much.
(trilema) ascii_field: hearn is with shi et al now ?!
(trilema) asciilifeform: for all i know, all 3 of my nodez are in mike hearn's ban list
(trilema) moonpunter: i find it ironic that mike hearn is taking issue with people using the word "dictators" although he was originally the one who suggested that gavin be a benevolent dictator
(trilema) asciilifeform: and they're a bug not merely in the hearnia-enabling sense. but in a philosophical sense - dollars to doughnuts it was the existence of the pool, of derps-mattering-in-the-aggregate-and-knowing-it, that bred many of the socio-psychiatric ills of 2011-present btc
(trilema) BingoBoingo: Stingray raping Hearn?

(trilema) mircea_popescu: bitcoin-mount-gokksu being what mount hearnu & gokksu a be doing.
(trilema) mircea_popescu: Some of bitcoin's biggest backers, including BitPay, Blockchain.info, Circle and KnCMiner.com, wrote a letter this week in support of the existing version of bitcoin—but only if it adopts some of the central ideas proposed by the renegade developers, Gavin Andresen and Mike Hearn."

(trilema) thestringpuller: https://www.reddit.com/r/Bitcoin/comments/3i4wfx/its_either_going_to_happen_or_already_has/ << they srsly think Gavin was the good guy and is not compromised, and is colluding with Hearn on XT because "the community" has been "hijacked".

(trilema) assbot: Hearn's Blacklist Shenanigans | Qntra ... ( http://bit.ly/1MHliwq )
(trilema) mircea_popescu: hearn was added to support gavin almost as soon as gavin did his "presentation" at cia.
(trilema) assbot: Logged on 20-08-2015 04:32:13; mircea_popescu: the only cherry missing from this cake is to discover hearn actually outsourced this shit via odesk or some crap.
(trilema) mircea_popescu: the only cherry missing from this cake is to discover hearn actually outsourced this shit via odesk or some crap.
(trilema) mircea_popescu: back when hearn wasn't even a shitstain on his owner's pants yet.
(trilema) asciilifeform: translated for humans, means 'if you wanna talk, prove you're a leaf node running hearnia. and don't pretend to be infrastructural node, we know who they are already and i don't recall selling you a license'
(trilema) asciilifeform: 'Future... ...Design a protocol to let user wallets gain priority by proving ownership of coin age, as they tend to have short lived connections and roam around different IPs, but we still want to serve them ahead of long term idling connections.' << lulzy. hearn would have all nodes run hotwallet to 'prove coin age'

(trilema) assbot: Logged on 18-08-2015 03:10:43; BingoBoingo: Given 2015 so far Hearnia must have planned to actually release XTCoin the first weekend of September. He ended up jumping the gun because USG pinoy spamzors. We won.
(trilema) BingoBoingo: Hearn lost so bad "unidentified" turrorist bombed expat Thailand today. Presumably to try to get Goat and scare people with insulfation faith in USG out of defecting.
(trilema) BingoBoingo: Given 2015 so far Hearnia must have planned to actually release XTCoin the first weekend of September. He ended up jumping the gun because USG pinoy spamzors. We won.

(trilema) assbot: Hearn Releases Code to Potentially Fork XTC from Bitcoin | Qntra ... ( http://bit.ly/1Nz5rgp )
(trilema) jurov: Hearn has in the past been a consistent advocate for having more Bitcoin users pushed onto less reliable SPV wallets instead of fully validating Bitcoin nodes, a move that // something missing here? // in an environment with substantially larger blocks and a higher orphaned block rate.
(trilema) asciilifeform: for the record, i'm rather surprised hearn didn't also push a switcheroo in the proof of work algo
(trilema) fluffypony: punkman: and my larger gripe is not "should we increase the blocksize or not", but rather the way Hearn-ia and Chief-Scientist-Gavin have sold this solution via Reddit and blog posts
(trilema) assbot: Hearn Releases Code to Potentially Fork XTC from Bitcoin | Qntra ... ( http://bit.ly/1TKeOB4 )
(trilema) thestringpuller: https://www.reddit.com/r/Bitcoin/comments/3h5kr6/why_is_bitcoin_forking/cu4fhny << they posted hearns article and it got "removed" in a similar fashion (blatant removal rather than manipulation)
(trilema) thestringpuller: Hearn's article gets censored and all the tards lose their shit.
(trilema) gernika: following up on the reddit/hearnia thread: Holy shit I can't believe hearnia wrote this: "...Bitcoin social contract.." It's just ... unbelievable.
(trilema) BingoBoingo pretty sure this time it was ascii who recommended butt pikes for Hearnias including a recommendation for a particular species of pine
(trilema) mircea_popescu: in any case, sure, "buterin and hearn invented bitcoin in 2017" is just about the same deal.
(trilema) BingoBoingo: King_Rex: Thoughts on Hearn dropping his pants today?
(trilema) assbot: Mike Hearn is saying Fork might ignore the longest chain! : Bitcoin ... ( http://bit.ly/1NiUp0Y )
(trilema) BingoBoingo actually kinda surprised Hearn didn't wait until the first weekend of September to drop his trousers for a fencing contest. Shitgnommery was starting to get a pattern.
(trilema) BingoBoingo though MP may have been doing math related to producing a lucite cast of Obola's recutm to place in the Hearnia's urinary bladder
(trilema) BingoBoingo: <asciilifeform> ^ hearn unzips and begins << So begins project Scott Tenorman
(trilema) asciilifeform: ^ hearn unzips and begins
(trilema) asciilifeform: hearn put on 'oppressed by cruel censors' suit, is now a darling of 'the masses' etc
(trilema) ascii_field: shinohai: recent hearn (nsa) gambit. there's very little the amorphous masses love more than 'omg1111!!! censored!!'
(trilema) ascii_field: mike hearn as a courageous fighter against nsa !
(trilema) cazalla: you'd think hearn and co would at least put up a few dozen extra xt nodes to fool people into thinking the mass of /r/bitcoin posts demanding xt discussion are legit
(trilema) mircea_popescu: "because we haven't joined the sv circus to not deliver huge numbers devoid of any content or meaning!!1" as hearn aptly put it.
(trilema) asciilifeform: shinohai: xt is mike hearn
(trilema) punkman: so if Hearn trusts in the Gospel of Satoshi, why isn't he running 0.1 or 0.5.3? "No it wasn't. That is something you invented yourself much later. "Small devices" isn't even defined anywhere, so there can't have been any such understanding. The actual understanding was the opposite. Satoshi's words: ..."
(trilema) BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: "But he went to a good school" - Famous last words, as far as I can tell also their Derp selection criteria. Best to head him off when he's weak least he Hearniate to a lager size
(trilema) mircea_popescu: looking forward to all the reddit threadsa going "thank you mp for bashing hearn's head right before hearn managed that one".
(trilema) mircea_popescu: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=31-07-2015#1219051 << amusingly, mike hearn's attempt to do the exact same for bitcoin at the exact same time ALSO seems to be a secret only we know.
(trilema) hanbot: re that hearn-gmaxwell reddit slapfight, "Not many quit their jobs and created companies to build products only for today's tiny user base." is the best part. sv somehow hoping http://trilema.com/2013/the-future-of-bitcoin-regulation/#selection-61.0-61.210 never happened.
(trilema) mircea_popescu: lol wait, gmaxwell and mike hearn bitching at each other on reddit as to who should go do an altcoin ?
(trilema) BingoBoingo: <assbot> Logged on 16-07-2015 14:21:09; asciilifeform: also, learned that the 'EXCEPTION: St12out_of_range CInv::GetCommand() type=3 unknown in ProcessMessages()' often found in therealbitcoin log comes from phoundation nodes sending 'bloom filter' command, a turd only they support << From my limited understanding it isn't Phoundation nodes, but SPV shit running Hearnia's BitcoinJ doing that
(trilema) mircea_popescu: they were added by you (ie, hearn), and by gavin and so on.
(trilema) nubbins`: ^ guy disagreeing with hearn's opinion that satoshi's code was diarrhoea splatter
(trilema) assbot: mike_hearn comments on Nick Szabo's hidden work ... ( http://bit.ly/1HSoc9Z )
(trilema) asciilifeform: though iirc hearniated client relays it.
(trilema) pete_dushenski: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=15-07-2015#1202572 << actually a pretty lulzy damnation of hearn. guy's the swiss cheese of software designers.
(trilema) nubbins`: "loltasticly a Mike Hearn Bitcoin XT node was used to relay the double-spends"
(trilema) BingoBoingo: Also last pre-Hearnia release

(trilema) pete_dushenski: gavin and hearn are really cartoon characters
(trilema) Luke-Jr: (it's ironic but true that Mike Hearn has written two changes in Bitcoin Core, and both of them introduced serious bugs..)
(trilema) asciilifeform: how often is bad tx resulting from the use of some peculiar 'hearnia' ? (on my node - apparently, quite often)
(trilema) ascii_field: as i pointed out before, it is being done for two disjoint reasons. one is so that hearn can write the turd linked above, re: 'it is crowded and we need blocks of $maxint size'
(trilema) ascii_field: (hearn, of course)
(trilema) midnightmagic: Because they haven't stopped yet. Hearn's submitting pullreqs he's going to use as propaganda to push people to -XT, and Gavin's going through the bip/pullreq motions when he knows he's going to be voted down. Again.
(trilema) thestringpuller: midnightmagic: there really isn't news. just gavin/hearn having a temper tantrum like a little kid because they want more subsidies for poor people.
(trilema) midnightmagic: Yeah, Gavin/Hearn.
(trilema) midnightmagic: What? He's pushing his BIP and pullreq, and Hearn is busy doing pullreqs which he knows doesn't have a chance of making it.
(trilema) midnightmagic: Say, why did you guys stop openly calling out Gavin and Hearn anyway?
(trilema) midnightmagic: .. which appears to have been a gavin/hearn originated bug.
(trilema) HeySteve: that hearn
(trilema) BingoBoingo: <asciilifeform> but afaik turdmeisters are already experimenting with connecting sewage pipes directly to the mempool << I think one of the earliest XT "selling points" by Hearnia was this for some SpamFunder called "Lighthouse"
(trilema) BingoBoingo: Apparently Luke-Jr has a node version census thing which unlike bitnodes.io isn't limiting itself completely to Hearniated nodes http://luke.dashjr.org/programs/bitcoin/files/charts/software.html
(trilema) assbot: Logged on 22-06-2015 03:07:57; asciilifeform: i can picture the minutes. 'hitler: you know, miners are using own versions of bitcoin and don't particular feel like backporting their necessary mods to yours. hearn: so let's do the work for them. gavin: fine idea'
(trilema) asciilifeform: i can picture the minutes. 'hitler: you know, miners are using own versions of bitcoin and don't particular feel like backporting their necessary mods to yours. hearn: so let's do the work for them. gavin: fine idea'
(trilema) BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: Hearn and Co are pushing some derp where "Those Bitcoins are yours even before the transaction is mined" idiocies
(trilema) BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: The Todd replace by fee patch is probably derp to hell, but it leads to some of the best Hearnia trolling outside this channel https://twitter.com/petertoddbtc/status/612780261109960704
(trilema) BingoBoingo: Shitgnomes leave turd traps and prevent nice things. Shit lords bury gnomes in turds to highlight their wretch. Mike Hearnia is a cononical shitgnome. Theo Deraadt and alf are cononical shitlords
(trilema) asciilifeform: gavin: sits in car, makes motions, 'vroom, vroom' hearn: 'steal it already'
(trilema) asciilifeform: ^ this lulzatron has been going for at least a week. hearn openly advocates 'gavin for fuhrer' notion
(trilema) ascii_field: 'speaks volumes for the actual “democracy” in the system. (Namely, there isn’t any. China — the Saudi Arabia of bitcoin — dominates.' <<< l0l!!! this of course is same party line as in mike hearn's blatherings about 'let's separate the economy majority of bitcoin from the whims of the hashing majority'
(trilema) assbot: BlockchainOfFools comments on Bitpay falling apart sends shockwaves through the ecosystem by proving Andresen and Hearn are wrong. Merchant transactions are not occurring. ... ( http://bit.ly/1CdmNJt )
(trilema) mircea_popescu: the original mike hearn induced hard fork.
(trilema) asciilifeform: it blew me away that hearn openly expressed an interest in 'remote attestation' on the air.
(trilema) asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: i haven't a clue whether hearn is the actual author of the hearnias in question, or not. only that the particular boobytrap which he misrepresents as 'bitcoin' is a more subtle one.
(trilema) mircea_popescu: and yes hearn is a better political animal than gavin, but not more intelligent
(trilema) trinque: the reddit post referencing hearn said "we could increase blocksize on xt in a week" 3 days gago
(trilema) asciilifeform: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=12-06-2015#1162802 << my understanding is that hearn is more clever than gavin, laid his traps such that they all spring at once when he pulls the switch (and emulates something like proper bitcoin until then)
(trilema) trinque: "DNS seed changes: bitseed.xf2.org is removed as it no longer works, and seeds from Addy Yeow and Mike Hearn are (re)added to increase seed diversity and redundancy." << LOL
(trilema) ascii_field: mr hearnia does
(trilema) ascii_field listened, out of entomological interest, to a recording of interview with hearn. yes, him. among the expected idiocies, hearn confessed to an interest in 'remote attestation' and 'trusted computing' as 'promising' alternatives to normally functioning bitcoin...
(trilema) funkenstein_: lifting all these blocks gonna give me a hearneia
(trilema) assbot: CoinScrum: QA with Gavin Andresen and Mike Hearn - YouTube ... ( http://bit.ly/1eZNexn )
(trilema) BingoBoingo: Last I checked Hearn still breathes so universe is still maximally hostile.
(trilema) cazalla: some coincidence a bunch of folk on /r/bitcoin get together to stress test the same day gavin threatens to take his ball/bat and go home with hearn
(trilema) BingoBoingo: Ah, the nodecounter that only counts post Hearnfork1 nodes
(trilema) mircea_popescu: asciilifeform incidentally, the one interesting tidbit in all this : one difference between current bitcoin and hearn-bitcoin is that the latter replaces Jeff Garzik's DNS seed with the seed run by one Addy Yeow.
(trilema) ascii_field: l0l re: hearniacoin
(trilema) thestringpuller: mircea_popescu asciilifeform : http://sourceforge.net/p/bitcoin/mailman/message/34155307/ << this nigga has declared war on the anti-forkers... seems like spinning wheels but knowing hearn, we'll likely see an XT release with the 20MB removed.
(trilema) pete_dushenski: " If you want to be a global payment network you should act like one. Mike Hearn makes it clear" etc.
(trilema) BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: Seriously. One little threat they call crazy and all of a sudden it comes out no one but Hearn supports Gavincoin while The core devs seem to reveal in turn the never actually thought much on the future.
(trilema) BingoBoingo: In which Hearn gets specially singled out for being a weirdo again http://sourceforge.net/p/bitcoin/mailman/message/34090559/
(trilema) BingoBoingo: Now "phone home" isn't as bad as Hearn forking in March 2013, but phone home is still bad for people who chose Armory
(trilema) mircea_popescu: the "millions" mike hearn derps about aren't only broken because shit, we're worth billions, even if he personally isn't worth two spits.
(trilema) mircea_popescu: right. it's gonna be taxation, in hearn world.
(trilema) thestringpuller: mircea_popescu: do you have the source for the pull request where hearn tried to merge in heartbleed?
(trilema) mircea_popescu: who the FUCK asked mike hearn ANYTHING ?
(trilema) mircea_popescu: ;;later tell mike_hearn suppose you chill it with the pretense of my-google-job-is-my-social-proof so the huge pile of embarassing emails etc won't have to be leaked. google's been embarassed enough this year already.
(trilema) mircea_popescu: seriously, mike hearn isn't the slimy fucktard we all know ? he's some sort of google expert now ? allow me to lulz for a spell.
(trilema) davout: obviously hearn concludes that it's really necessary to push the block size
(trilema) davout: and now, hearn and him are stuck derping at how micro-payments and smart contracts would have prevented the whole thing
(trilema) mircea_popescu: nobody can take it seriously with derps a la gavin, luke, hearn & co involved.
(trilema) pete_dushenski: if bitstein is correct, one wonders how hearn affords to live in switzerland
(trilema) mircea_popescu: like hearn, like everyone else on github. like the names on social media, like the leah goodmans trying to convince you they're "journalists".
(trilema) bitstein: pete_dushenski: Hearn lives in Switzerland.
(trilema) mircea_popescu: i think hearn is one of the... how shall i put this.
(trilema) pete_dushenski: fine, hearn then!
(trilema) nubbins` invites hearn to use money without numbers
(trilema) mircea_popescu: lol @hearn : "So: money is not a mathematical construct. It’s a social construct. The fact that Bitcoin uses some fairly basic maths to coordinate social decisions over the internet doesn’t change that."
(trilema) asciilifeform: not that there is no office where hearn et al are given winks, nudges, and stacks of benjies
(trilema) mircea_popescu: THIS is the best angle for him being a conspiraci, a sort of mike hearn of the cia.
(trilema) mircea_popescu: that was the equivalent of the mike hearn "let's test bitcoin". the result came out kinda clearly - 9 maybe 10 days. that's it.
(trilema) BingoBoingo: <sjsqd> but works with bitcoin just the same as any other client (multibit etc) does? << Very different from multibit. Multibit is based on the Hearn BitcoinJ turd.
(trilema) asciilifeform: sjsqd: the more heavily-advertised 'foundation' (vessenes, hearn, andresen, et al) was a scam from day one
(trilema) BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: BitcoinXT is the hearn foundation Bitcoin fork which has all kinds of features even Gavin rejected because they make nodes incredibly more DoS attackable

Almost always... How many crypto geeks STILL spout rubbish about how the PKI is totally busted and the web of trust is the future? Way too many... The future of encrypted messaging is not GPG."
(trilema) mats: hearn and moxie start from the same premise, where tech and crypto are somehow going to paper over deficiencies in human relations and bring useful encryption to everyone everywhere, and somehow gpg is inadequate because it doesn't solve all problems they've imagined but don't actually present as problems to technically capable people

(trilema) thestringpuller: hearn wanted to merge that in iirc, something about 2-factor?
(trilema) mircea_popescu: that "assurance contracts" in particular is such insane dumb only hearn could have sprouted it.
(trilema) mircea_popescu: in case it's not clear, no anything authored by hearn may ever be merged into anything. i don't care what it is. the dog learns to shine shoes or do carpentry or whatever, but he does not work wioth computers anymore.
(trilema) mircea_popescu: "The BIP was authored by Mike Hearn who also provided the implementation for Bitcoin Core."
(trilema) mircea_popescu: (never = not anymore, since gavin is no longer in a position to merge hearnidiocy in any significant manner)
(trilema) mircea_popescu: asciilifeform i really never looked at anything they pushed out after the hearn fork.
(trilema) BingoBoingo: kakobrekla: But means signal to noise. I assume Mike Hearn forked Google Translate too.
(trilema) davout: gavinandresen: "okey dokey, then we might not have much to talk about if you want to stick with OpenSSL bugs that were included in the protocol by mistake." <<< actually i distinctly remember mike hearn telling me how that particular bug was part of the protocol and how it somehow justified not putting any effort towards actually specifying anything, in a spec, not in code
(trilema) danielpbarron: "I think its perfectly usable for people who are comfortable with bitcoin, but aren't developers or are tech-savvy. You could crowdfund, you know, me and my friends go to a concert and we've got to 'group buy' concert tickets, or group buy a laser tag day or something." Hearn on his decentralized kickstarter turd
(trilema) mircea_popescu: some informative original research, fresh from marquardt : "According to Mike Hearn, Satoshi even planned on creating a reputation system integrated with the Bitcoin client that would use the number of blocks you'd individually solved as part of a system to prevent scammers from creating infinitely many accounts."
(trilema) davout: mircea_popescu: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=134318.msg1435904#msg1435904 <<< hearn, in reply to me: "because some parts of the protocol are directly exposed to underlying libraries like OpenSSL, you have to match their behaviour exactly as well, including all their bugs." https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=134318.msg1435904#msg1435904
(trilema) mircea_popescu: yeah, a lot of ground has been lost since the hearn attack.

(trilema) mircea_popescu: guys like hearn, gmaxwell etc , as well as guys like poettering etc, as well as guys like that derpy chick whatever her name is
(trilema) fluffypony: that's "infosec expert" -> me -> Hearnia -> me
(trilema) mircea_popescu: hearn still talks in public ?
(trilema) fluffypony: Hearn tried to debate the point with me on Reddit
(trilema) mircea_popescu: and in so doing provides the perfect pill against the hearn idiocy of "let's import heardbleed into btc
(trilema) mircea_popescu: mats_cd03: what is the origin of this 'power rangers' nick? << hours after the fork gavin & hearn brought upon the network through their alleged ineptitude (which allegation i don't credit, it was deliberate)
(trilema) BingoBoingo: dartv: Well, that wasn't intention for anyone other than Herr Hearn's handlers
(trilema) asciilifeform: 'hearn: well i assumed that too when the docs first leaked last year. i kept waiting for the slide shows about the compromised CA's.
(trilema) jurov: WTF "I love bitcoin for reasons that Amir Taaki, Adam Back, Peter Todd and Mike Hearn love it."
(trilema) Apocalyptic: "That's absurd. The whole Lavabit episode actually indicates how strong the CA infrastructure really is", hearn
(trilema) ben_vulpes: do hearn and andresen have wot profiles?
(trilema) mircea_popescu: well, the death of the previous hard fork (the one gavin & hearn created) happened through the cooperation of the meanwhile defunct 50btc guild.
(trilema) asciilifeform: re: some poor usian schmuck to take on hearn et al and risk...
(trilema) ben_vulpes: is the goal (eg political) to find some poor usian schmuck to take on hearn et al and risk full audit of all things, stopping and frisking by every passing police officer?
(trilema) asciilifeform: it's a hearnia.
(trilema) asciilifeform: pinpoint - no. approximately tell if they're running hearn turd - yes.
