(trilema) ben_vulpes: Hssgh5337k: you could at least mention these skills; otherwise it reeks of "i'm a magical pony and YOU DON'T UNDERSTAAAAND"
(trilema) ben_vulpes: who are you anyways
(trilema) ben_vulpes: come 2020 if not sooner, it'll be "and i beg your consideration".
(trilema) ben_vulpes: and to quote BigTexasBingo, the time for showing up and derping around without saying "i am so and so, and should be considered for inclusion in the forum for reasons of x y and z" was in 2013, not the tail end of 2017.
(trilema) ben_vulpes: absent identity, one is naught.
(trilema) ben_vulpes: and who're you, Hssgh5337k ?

(trilema) ben_vulpes: asciilifeform: the same thought occurred to me
(trilema) ben_vulpes: node was booted with that yes
(trilema) ben_vulpes: this one block took me from 813 to 814
(trilema) ben_vulpes: asciilifeform: one thing i do with logbot is to use postgres as a queue so that a background worker can do all of the thinking and crashing without thrashing the irc connection
(trilema) ben_vulpes: anyways i must have an extra-thick layer of prb, as my node has found precisely one block in the past three hours
(trilema) ben_vulpes: sorry, asciilifeform. i was focused on the logbot part, forgot about the ircbot and to update documentation.
(trilema) ben_vulpes: sharp eyes, asciilifeform
(trilema) ben_vulpes: fair warning, it has a miserable, lisprepl ui
(trilema) ben_vulpes: shall i dig mine out?
(trilema) ben_vulpes: vtron != vdiff mircea_popescu
(trilema) ben_vulpes: trinque: hah cool
(trilema) ben_vulpes: tangentially relatedly, i'm not seeing much benefit from this aggressive sync mode
(trilema) ben_vulpes: myeah, as i said "in light of", mostly unearthing for target practice.
(trilema) ben_vulpes still rereading whole thread in light of the past few days happenings
(trilema) ben_vulpes: i think i just tripped over the multiple-leaves thing as well, had asciilifeform's wires in my patchset
(trilema) ben_vulpes: you know, when getinfo got around to returning
(trilema) ben_vulpes: just caught 2 more; looks like it might be on a verification tear now
(trilema) ben_vulpes: will probably use asciilifeform's aggressive patch, as my logs are full of 70000-series nodes advertising sexily high tips
(trilema) ben_vulpes: this one is so very persistently stuck at 500756
(trilema) ben_vulpes: "A federal judge declared a mistrial wednesay in the riminal conspiracy case against rancher Cliven Bundy and three other defendants, saying government laywers suppressed key evidence..." https://www.washingtonpost.com/national/judge-declares-mistrial-in-case-against-rancher-cliven-bundy-sons-and-militiaman/2017/12/20/49d91c24-e5c8-11e7-a65d-1ac0fd7f097e_story.html
(trilema) ben_vulpes: phf: well i'd like to get something out of trb that i can dump into a txrelayulator

(trilema) ben_vulpes: s/could be/is/
(trilema) ben_vulpes: sure, could be reasonable to dump to <txid>.bin in my mind as well
(trilema) ben_vulpes: and cwallettx has the kooky IMPLEMENT_SERIALIZE so it should be possible to hex to stdout through the rpc machinery?
(trilema) ben_vulpes: phf: the latter
(trilema) ben_vulpes: aside from dumping the mempool and parsing each?
(trilema) ben_vulpes: unrelatedly, does anyone know how to beat a trb into coughing up the actual raw transaction it sent?
(trilema) ben_vulpes: actually just dug out some photos from that era, oh gracious me. macs with cameras were all the rage and boy howdy did we have fun taking photos of ourselves misbehaving.

(trilema) ben_vulpes: phf: total transformerphone
(trilema) ben_vulpes: a) don't live there or care too much about barista fashion anymore b) already lead that charge by toting the mp01 for a few months c) wake me up when "i don't have facebook" is actually popular
(trilema) ben_vulpes: phf: you know me so well
(trilema) ben_vulpes: anyways cblgh logs are in channel title, if you're going to not wash out at least register a gpg key with deedbot
(trilema) ben_vulpes: ahaha when did you show up
(trilema) ben_vulpes: i have developed an allergy to bending myself to fit my tools over the last four years; ios is one of the last bits of sand in me gears
(trilema) ben_vulpes: pretty tragic that one even has the basis to ask 'how bad is the t9', given how well it worked two decades ago.
(trilema) ben_vulpes: you're happier hammering each numpad up to three times for a single letter?
(trilema) ben_vulpes: asciilifeform: hey, t9 implementations suck now too. no auto-updating dictionary, statistic-based wordguessing...
(trilema) ben_vulpes: how's the t9?
(trilema) ben_vulpes: ah looks like a classic
(trilema) ben_vulpes: phf: rocking the 'mp01' or what
(trilema) ben_vulpes: probably tastes great with a dash of "selectively run js load from google.com, facebook.com after everything else because trackers are js dogs"
(trilema) ben_vulpes: energy efficient, dontchaknow!
(trilema) ben_vulpes: let's just continue with the apple idiocy: "try the new safari! fast, energy efficient, and with a beautiful new design."
(trilema) ben_vulpes: i guess this is new as of the lifted ban on interpreters and compilers?
(trilema) ben_vulpes: phf: oh that's nifty
(trilema) ben_vulpes: or 'IT will want to know how to upgrade users devices without revoking every key and leaving accounts 'unsecured' during the TOTP rotation"
(trilema) ben_vulpes: im astonished this idiocy made it past the enterprise sales people; 'IT will want to know how to back these codes up'
(trilema) ben_vulpes: here i was, thinking that a redhat product would have features like 'backup'
(trilema) ben_vulpes: asciilifeform: yr defectively steeped in security theater
(trilema) ben_vulpes: in other top notch lolz, the redhat "totp" ios "app" does not provide for backing up the shared seeds.
(trilema) ben_vulpes: the real fun is in asking "what word do you want me to use instead?" and then using it in such a way that all the partizans wince, knowing that word means The Bad Thing now.
(trilema) ben_vulpes: "humans can't be defective!" "well what do you call it when they're missing a chromosome, eh?"
(trilema) ben_vulpes: it's wildly entertaining watching people thrash in their own contradictions
(trilema) ben_vulpes: not even use, but locked up trying to find
(trilema) ben_vulpes: a few short seconds later the same person practically pulled a 'halt and catch fire' when attempting to use a word that doesn't mean broken to describe f. ex. chromosomal abnormalities
(trilema) ben_vulpes: just my dinner table
(trilema) ben_vulpes: i had to laugh last night; someone at the table wanted to stake out the position that "people with downs syndrome aren't defective. you can't have defective humans!"
(trilema) ben_vulpes: shinohai: megalol at insider trading of altcoins
(trilema) ben_vulpes: if an email player, why not a music reader?!

(trilema) ben_vulpes: including (omg!!!1) keyword search
(trilema) ben_vulpes: rolling out radical piles of features at okcupid
(trilema) ben_vulpes: how was that established again
(trilema) ben_vulpes: asciilifeform: 'magic trick' vs 'as yet unbroken cipher'
(trilema) ben_vulpes: still not convinced that no hanky panky was involved
(trilema) ben_vulpes: that fuckin thing
(trilema) ben_vulpes: although perhaps that is the only thing that will eventually differentiate the trilema fiatists products
(trilema) ben_vulpes: asciilifeform: i am very curious in how you figure initial distribution might work
(trilema) ben_vulpes: ohey have we finally arrived at the solution of each laird maintaining their own premined coin?
(trilema) ben_vulpes: she would literally rather dance for tips
(trilema) ben_vulpes: what a fuckin thing.
(trilema) ben_vulpes: holy fuckadoodle, imagine getting paid a bitcent an hour to do your six months
(trilema) ben_vulpes: mircea_popescu: oh i understand this, i also understand how fist fits in cunt doesn't mean i'm not entertained from time to time with the concrete item

(trilema) ben_vulpes: i thought it was cute!
(trilema) ben_vulpes: gods bless, his webpage loads in half a second
(trilema) ben_vulpes: and now for something completely different: http://archive.is/IEa6u "I have always been fascinated, and a little troubled, by the concept of paper money, or fiat currency. If I think about it too long it makes my head hurt and I have an urge to sell all of my tech stocks and buy gold."
(trilema) ben_vulpes: http://archive.is/p526V << certain elements of the pravda are funny; the classic socialistoid "assuming the sale" in "The truth has been rendered here irrelevant" in regards to the /defamation case/, also the hilarious verdict of ~"you'd have to be /uniquely stupid/ to not understand that you're a public figure by virtue of just fucking look at yourself"
(trilema) ben_vulpes: well and being a pissoir for the webatlarge
(trilema) ben_vulpes: asciilifeform: macware abounds, none of it is being used for anything other than entertainment anymore
(trilema) ben_vulpes: phf: nah not particularly interesting to me, i got out of that gox early q2 this year, but sfyl
(trilema) ben_vulpes bbl, a deserving lady has a christmas movie i'm not grinching about for once
(trilema) ben_vulpes: american democracy is a miserable thing, demanding that there be one boss (the state) and all subservient to it without ever acknowledging their subservience.
(trilema) ben_vulpes: when i ran a small coeterie of staff the steel spine of our success was the chain of command from whence sense and marching orders came, and everyone's utterly clear understanding of where they stood
(trilema) ben_vulpes: mircea_popescu: never seen it
(trilema) ben_vulpes: such a sad thing, the rejection of hierarchy.
(trilema) ben_vulpes: now if only there were anything to talk about over beer but gay marriage
(trilema) ben_vulpes: in other possibly stale lols, heathen wallet denominates in millishitcoinz
(trilema) ben_vulpes: so 'in out' means that data can be read from the param and will also be written into, whereas 'out' means that data will only be written to the param in the procedure?
(trilema) ben_vulpes: okay i'll look into that.
(trilema) ben_vulpes: ah because you still pass outparams into a function call
(trilema) ben_vulpes: asciilifeform: ^^
(trilema) ben_vulpes: anyways, way the heck upstack, `FZ_Clear` 'sets a given FZ to zero' but i only see an outparam; is this not more of a constructor than zero-er?
(trilema) ben_vulpes: large thermal mass, engineering time spent to ensure complete combustion, sometimes a long horizontal chimney too?

(trilema) ben_vulpes: mircea_popescu: i'm rhapsodizing about my tiny fireplace
(trilema) ben_vulpes: oh and it hasta be large enough to fit benches *inside*
(trilema) ben_vulpes: fireplace just ain't a worthwhile thing unless you've got the woodpile to keep ti at least smouldering all day, roaring at night, and pretty lasses to keep it stoked. nevertheless, i'll enjoy this one while i have it.
(trilema) ben_vulpes: remarked the other night that i understood in short order the fireplace -> 'franklin' stove motivations
(trilema) ben_vulpes: but by WHOM?!?!?!
(trilema) ben_vulpes: asciilifeform: hey relatedly as you might deduce i do have a usable gnat setup nao

(trilema) ben_vulpes: genius brother-in-law-in-waiting decided to bless the family mountain retreat with a whole cord of what turned out to be entirely unseasoned softwood from godknowswhere. literally worst choice, literally unprepared for civilized use.
(trilema) ben_vulpes: this is primo hardwoods, seasoned professionally.
(trilema) ben_vulpes: all congrats to you sir, p vastly more enjoyable and engrossing than any other 'content' any imperial attentionfarm has produced in my lifetime
(trilema) ben_vulpes: entirely unrelatedly, i had a half-cord of firewood dropped off and racked tidily in my basement a week or so ago and holy smokes the luxury of having effectively unlimited firewood during the wintertime is almost as good as i imagine not having to suffer through pacific northwest winters must be
(trilema) ben_vulpes: mircea_popescu: i have never understood wtf that was or how it was supposed to work
(trilema) ben_vulpes: mod6: aha thanks
(trilema) ben_vulpes: meanwhile, what was the ml link now points to the foundation website, as that's where mod6 's v is most sensibly linked from
(trilema) ben_vulpes: don't contribute to linkrot, folks. at least put in a redirect when you take things down.
(trilema) ben_vulpes: and i am to update my blog every time someone takes down matter linked from a mailing list post?
(trilema) ben_vulpes: as i said recently to a friend, "heck yeah that sounds like just the thing the world has been missing until right this very moment! buy anything other than bitcoin, wouldja? keep malia free for another decade..."
(trilema) ben_vulpes: doubtless attends the best parties at burning man too, but what man would eat from that hand, party with those tools
(trilema) ben_vulpes: yes well secure enclave advocate now as well, hence "full bore retard"
(trilema) ben_vulpes: This is where the special features of MobileCoin come in. The currency is designed to utilize an Intel processor component known as Software Guard Extensions, or a "secure enclave."
(trilema) ben_vulpes: it's really the only way they can make waves about folks doing this kind of deed. anyone with half a brain a) is not entrappable like this b) has the requisite half ounce of paranoia to foil the wallet inspectors at ft meade
(trilema) ben_vulpes: yes, these mysterious other parties
(trilema) ben_vulpes: not even that the girl exists!
(trilema) ben_vulpes: also flying directly to isis
(trilema) ben_vulpes: pff apparently *did* try sending us currency abroad. idiot.

(trilema) ben_vulpes: press release is delightfully vague too
(trilema) ben_vulpes: if i recall correctly, the empty files are necessary to hold the output of trbs compilation process

(trilema) ben_vulpes: always entertaining to watch "just wanted"s rack their nuts on the handrail of reality
(trilema) ben_vulpes: buenos dias, BingoBoingo
(trilema) ben_vulpes: mike_c, the republic's mole in IAC
(trilema) ben_vulpes: which is kind of impressive because bumble was already a shitty tinder, providing a cover for short-term coy behavior in online dating.
(trilema) ben_vulpes: so it's a shitty bumble now.
(trilema) ben_vulpes: they show up on the sender's "profile" instead
(trilema) ben_vulpes: apparently mike_c's new gig has now banned messages to girls from users they haven't "liked" yet
(trilema) ben_vulpes bbl, teaching human 101, will return later
(trilema) ben_vulpes: vga card doesn't receive, right?
(trilema) ben_vulpes: yeah, this i know.
(trilema) ben_vulpes: hardware for broadcasting and receiving data over low bandwidth radio links
(trilema) ben_vulpes: too parsimonious!
(trilema) ben_vulpes: concretely, trying to figure out what it would take to prototype a tuneable phase locked loop channel
(trilema) ben_vulpes: canvassing the low bandwidth radio space

(trilema) ben_vulpes: phf: some day perhaps, he is well occupied learning to make me breakfast and working on his basic numeracy at the moment
(trilema) ben_vulpes: i actually caved for a plane ride recently, procured a set of entirely unobjectionable 45-minute videos of various animals tearing each other apart. imagine my fury when the downloadotron had failed to save these for the flight!
(trilema) ben_vulpes: asciilifeform: sounds like Real America
(trilema) ben_vulpes: i speak stricly of the miserable agglomeration of transistors with no purpose
(trilema) ben_vulpes: that's not /computronium/
(trilema) ben_vulpes not going to try, computronium strictly off-limits to the feeble-minded and children in my house
(trilema) ben_vulpes: some yes! monetization algorithms get the humans to do a lot of the work as well, which helps the whole 'ecosystem' escape local minima
(trilema) ben_vulpes: strictly designed to turn the learning part of tiny brains off and turn them into drooling zombies.
(trilema) ben_vulpes: dude the horror that is youtube's autoselected content for wee ones is unplumbable.
(trilema) ben_vulpes: they'll demand inane child content all day
(trilema) ben_vulpes: next thing you know they'
(trilema) ben_vulpes: 'tis the hole through which the camels nose comes in.
(trilema) ben_vulpes: and traditional fun is bad.
(trilema) ben_vulpes: yes well now we have transistors and the high-pixel density hyperattractors
(trilema) ben_vulpes: there's a spoken word meditation guide and some rhythmic pulsing
(trilema) ben_vulpes: yes, this is a woman who is an american "school counselor" and she interprets her job to be placating kids with fucking ipads
(trilema) ben_vulpes: because (it gets better), "it works wonders for my most disturbed children at school"
(trilema) ben_vulpes: the retardation with these folks is astonishingly deep: get this. one wife placates her children with an ipad meditation app.
(trilema) ben_vulpes: still astonished the pantsuits that a) child can eat with spoon and b) would eat something with flavor
(trilema) ben_vulpes: the american stew of sloth, poverty, beans, paprika, and various meats
(trilema) ben_vulpes: moreover, what does sitting prez a la obab even pay for. agent orange clearly living at mar a lago because omfg rats in the white house
(trilema) ben_vulpes: lol right, salary last time i checked as a kid was what, 100k? sounded like lots when i was a kid but today...
(trilema) ben_vulpes: the apple tree was a spectacular spot of marketing; doesn't mean the guy lacked in steel.
(trilema) ben_vulpes: just a lie like the rest of the american myth
(trilema) ben_vulpes: the washington apocrypha?
(trilema) ben_vulpes: has anyone even "parented <republicanly> correctly" in history?
(trilema) ben_vulpes: if you let food become such an issue that you're fighting over it at dishwashing age you dun fucked up way the fuck uptree.
(trilema) ben_vulpes: (clearly also lacking in the discipline to say "eat what we eat or go to bed hungry")
(trilema) ben_vulpes: it's almost as though they never thought to have the fun of putting novel tastes in the kid's face
(trilema) ben_vulpes: while my two year old is scarfing down olives, prosciutto, spicy chilis, with nary a blink.
(trilema) ben_vulpes: funnily enough, the family democrats have failed on parenting to the degree that "she only eats white things" like...bread. pasta. plastimilk.
