amberglint: Hello
amberglint: asciilifeform: Have you seen this? https://github.com/1801BM1/vm80a
asciilifeform: amberglint: was linked in #t a while ago.
snsabot: (trilema) 2019-04-24 asciilifeform: !Q later tell bvt ty for digging up the 1801 materials; dun suppose you could get the author in here ?

snsabot: Logged on 2020-08-09 20:48:01 asciilifeform: billymg: your rk is ready : http://paste.deedbot.org/?id=8yGn ; plz confirm at your earliest convenience.
asciilifeform: billymg: got it! ty
asciilifeform: billymg: pleasure doing biz. remember to make regular backups.
billymg: asciilifeform: likewise, and will do
asciilifeform: billymg: and remember the '#1 rule of tinned gentoo' also.
billymg: asciilifeform: made that mistake once a long time ago, Never Again(TM)
snsabot: (trilema) 2018-10-14 asciilifeform: http://btcbase.org/log/2018-10-14#1862311 << btw, i explicitly disrecomment updating rk gentoo from heathen-upstream. it will lead only to tears.
asciilifeform on subject of rk -- recently upgraded the forced air cooling on rk plant; oughta help extend the life of drives. however rk users (as for all leased boxen are still responsible for monitoring their units for drive failures and letting me know!)
asciilifeform nao with 6 subscribers, not including self + tbf pro-bono unit . will admit, did not expect to have 'monopoly' on in-wot rackage for this long, tbh..
snsabot: (therealbitcoin) 2020-05-31 asciilifeform: jurov: lemme know if there's sumthing tbf needs , that i have. in particular can provide mirroring/hosting pro bono .
btcinfobot: The 24-Hour VWAP for BTC is $ 11924.02 USD
shinohai: $ticker btc usd
btcinfobot: Current BTC price in USD: $11889.85
shinohai: ^ also added today
shinohai: all new cmds will also have "man" entry, e.g.
shinohai: $man ticker
btcinfobot: ticker <coin-1> <coin-2> | Returns price for <coin-1> denominated in <coin-2> (or fiat).
asciilifeform: shinohai: can get all-commands ?
asciilifeform: !q help
snsabot: asciilifeform: my valid commands are: src, uptime, seen-anywhere, help, s, version, seen
asciilifeform: !w help
watchglass: asciilifeform: my valid commands are: src, uptime, help, probe, peers, version, poll
shinohai: I should have that polished up by this afternoon sometime
watchglass: asciilifeform: my source code can be seen at: http://www.loper-os.org/?p=3665
asciilifeform: ^ would be handy also..
shinohai: $source
shinohai: (but haven't quite added yet)
shinohai: Again, a bit of polish required before I feel is ready to publish
asciilifeform: meanwhile, in heathendom, yet another 'dissident' youtube clone. supposedly 'forbidden', folx banned from 'platforms' for linking to it etc. then i look inside, and notice that link 404's erry other time on acct of cloudflareism!
shinohai: lol, yeah that was supposed to be "JewTube" killer ..... UNCENSORABLE!
asciilifeform: quite reminiscent of 'voat' & similar claptrap from recent yrs
asciilifeform still wonders why no one seems to realize that video hosting is -ev. i.e. if it's happening, 'you're the product'(tm)(r)(tlp)
asciilifeform: 'phree video host' is exactly same type of economic absurdity as the ubiquitous $5 vpnism item.
shinohai: Hilariously, "ExpressVPN" is one of the biggest things "YouTube" creators shill for these days.
asciilifeform: relatedly, this nao 404.
shinohai: I started hosting own videos w/ blog because of above ^
asciilifeform: shinohai: worx until you've 4-5 folx watching simult.
asciilifeform: in principle a 'torrent'-like 'errybody who leeches, must also mirror' algo would be the correct pill for videoism
shinohai: Agreed.
asciilifeform: necessarily req's wot tho. otherwise enemy will happily 'yes i cache the frames' and serve up goatse
asciilifeform: in principle can serve up a merkle tree of whole film to 'allcomers' on original page, and then hash against it when receiving mirrored material.
asciilifeform: in practice ~nobody gives enuff fuck re videoism..
asciilifeform reminded of 1 of his 'open problems notebook' items -- is it possible to compute a 'time-series hash' -- where you take e.g. a sequence of 1e6 video/audio frames, or other large quantized data set, and compute a H such that F(d1, d2, ..., dN) == H, where d1, d2, ... are the 'frames', and finding u_N where F(d1, ..., uN, dN+1, ..) == H is difficult'
asciilifeform: i.e. F(d1) == H, F(d1, d2) == H, F(d1, ..., d1000) == H.
asciilifeform: but F(d1, d2, u3, d4, ..., dN) != H, if u3 != d3. etc
asciilifeform: the only algo i know of to approximate this is merkle's tree, which is quite 'heavy' esp. if you want to cover ~every~ point in the series.
asciilifeform: shinohai: * btcinfobot has quit (Excess Flood)
shinohai: Yeah I kilt it, abt to bring back up now
shinohai: $help
btcinfobot: Commands: blocks echo help man source ticker vwap For information on a specific command, see `man <command>`
asciilifeform: $man blocks
btcinfobot: blocks <coin> | Returns current block height of <coin>.
asciilifeform: $blocks
btcinfobot: Error! Requires parameter - Please see `man blocks` for usage info.
asciilifeform: $blocks btc
btcinfobot: Blocks: 643111
asciilifeform: !w probe 205.134.172.27

shinohai: future improvement will be to get "blocks" directly from trb node (currently using chainz api).
asciilifeform: shinohai: see wg src re how, it is pretty easy
asciilifeform: in wholly unrealated noose : sumbody's selling a bolix mcivory. ( and model2, at that, the mechanically-simpler kind w/ no cpld. i'd actually trade my 'fast' model3 for this type if knew someone in l2 who offered. )
shinohai: And hey, if in NJ looks like he will throw in free vintage machines.
asciilifeform: shinohai: right, but i already have the carrier machine
asciilifeform: ( dks normally includes'em, they're worth coupla hundy at most )
asciilifeform: they go in crapple's 'IIfx' or 'quadra' machines, 1990s.
asciilifeform: ( e.g. mine shipped already bolted into a 'quadra 650' )
asciilifeform: subj, for ref.
asciilifeform: briefly revisiting this crackpottery -- it occurs to asciilifeform that 'streaming' oughta be ultra-simple to p2pize -- simply transmit hash(next frame) w/ each frame, starting from 1st. (and, if you like, rsa-sign the 1st.)
snsabot: Logged on 2020-08-10 14:16:16 asciilifeform: but F(d1, d2, u3, d4, ..., dN) != H, if u3 != d3. etc

asciilifeform: $ticker btc usd
btcinfobot: Current BTC price in USD: $11913.67
asciilifeform: shinohai: would be lulzy if bot also answered e.g. 'just like in july 2019'...
asciilifeform: even lulzier if '...like in july of '19, and march of '18...' etc
snsabot: Logged on 2020-05-05 19:55:24 asciilifeform: i.e. it does creep upwards, but not at anywhere near the rate of fiatola buying power dropping.
shinohai: lmao! If I could find a good source for historical price data, would indeed be hilarious.
asciilifeform: shinohai: there's various on www. could swallow one and have the bot update when prodded (or cron)
asciilifeform: 'going in circles' since dec. '17.
asciilifeform: i.e. ever since they got the waterfall working smoothly.
asciilifeform: imho also not coincidence that that was roughly when leveraged 'paper btc' was introduced.
snsabot: Logged on 2020-05-05 20:00:49 asciilifeform: most of the folx who 'bought bitcoin' have never handled a privkey. just like the 'oil futures' folx never touch a barrel w/ own hands.
