mircea_popescu: he's a poopyhead eh scoopbot ?

asciilifeform: not enough uptake on their 'cloud storage' sc4m, so they tried another angle.
mod6: 117k
asciilifeform: (the way the device is priced, it is almost certainly a loss-leader)
mircea_popescu: not for long.
mircea_popescu: no srsly, the way computiong works, no loss leader stays a loss leader for long.
mircea_popescu: how do you think moore's law even came to be ?
asciilifeform: well yes. eventually - splat.
scoopbot: Yeah, I don't like pete_dushenski much.

mircea_popescu: asciilifeform the xbox was a loss leader. heck, the 94 playstation was a loss leader

scoopbot: Yeah, I don't like pete_dushenski much.
scoopbot: Yeah, I don't like pete_dushenski much.
mod6: haha wat
mircea_popescu: pete revenge-hacked scoopbot
asciilifeform: mod6: a few days ago, I had been looking mapOrphanBlocks as a possible reason that it runs itself out << see my earlier 'valgrind' experiments.
asciilifeform: !s valgrind
assbot: 26 results for 'valgrind' : http://s.b-a.link/?q=valgrind
mod6: i'll have to look back. i spent a bunch of time running gdb & valgrind earlier in the month.
scoopbot: Yeah, I don't like pete_dushenski much.
mod6: i'll hvae to take a look at your results.
asciilifeform: mod6: linked somewhere in there.
mod6: thx ascii
mircea_popescu: mod6 do you know right off what's the logic that deems an orphan chain no longer worth tracking ?
mircea_popescu: "another chain at least 120 blocks longer" or something sane like that ?
scoopbot: Yeah, I don't like pete_dushenski much.
mod6 slaps scoopbot
mircea_popescu: !down scoopbot
mod6: I don't have a good answer for that atm.
mod6 looks
decimation: re: midwestern blandness < yes, it's a weird phenomenon. try going to an indian restaurant in say, chicago, and have them give you an average level of spice
decimation: and washington dc is definitely a midwestern city - where else are people going to get jobs? ohio?
mircea_popescu: ah, spice is a different story tho. they can eat pretty hot, especially in the se.
mircea_popescu: but! flavour and hotness are different. flavour's a billion different sulphides, alcohols, aromatics etc
mircea_popescu: hotness is half a dozen capseins.
decimation: yeah that's true
mod6: in v0.5.3, afaik, it looks for dups, then (with checkpoints) it checks to see if the block has a timestamp previous to the last checkpoint, then if it can't find a prev block it puts it in a holding area until one is found.
mircea_popescu: checkpoint only ?
mircea_popescu: that's pretty dumb.
mod6: Lastly, it recursively processes any orphan blocks that are depended on it, and deletes them from the map.
mod6: In later versions, they have a cap of 750 blocks max for the orphan map iirc.

decimation: re: winklevoss exchange << http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=07-08-2014#786414 << well, I guess that explains what they are going to do

asciilifeform: 88f6180 << see esp. pp. 290. unit can be force-fed firmware through uart during boot, whether board manufacturer wants it or not.
asciilifeform: trivial 'jailbreak'.
asciilifeform: not necessary as they are currently offered, but if they're a loss-leader and mircea_popescu buys 10,000 of them...
asciilifeform: pp. 297 has the actual magic string.
asciilifeform: 'If the bootROM detects the 64-bit UART boot pattern (0xBB 0x11 0x22 0x33 0x44 0x55 0x66 0x77) injected by the user, as an indication to start the Xmodem protocol and the UART boot process); it configures the appropriate MPPs to operate as UA0_RXD and UA0_TXD, as in the previous sub-section and starts the Xmodem protocol to load the image from UART to the DDR.'
asciilifeform: BingoBoingo: perhaps we have your new pc here.
mod6: @ block 1236XX i'll have to check back in on it in the am.
mod6: ill give another update on it then.
mod6: g'night Gentlemen.
mircea_popescu: <mod6> In later versions, they have a cap of 750 blocks max for the orphan map iirc. << yes, and it's idiotic.
mircea_popescu: a 900 block long orphan that's 5 blocks shorter than the main chai nshould not be discarded.
mircea_popescu: a 2 block orphan that's 122 blocks shorter than the main chain is never going to be main.
mircea_popescu: (never = not anymore, since gavin is no longer in a position to merge hearnidiocy in any significant manner)
mircea_popescu: <mod6> which is worth a look << that, it is.

davout: all the americans i know trying to learn french had a problem with "mon cul", "ma queue", "mon cou"
mircea_popescu: mon cul / mon cou is certainly in the same position :D
davout: my butt, my dick, my neck
davout: they just can't say the sounds, sounds all the same to them
mircea_popescu: i think queue has a sharper k which is actually perceptible
mircea_popescu: maybe you're saying it wrong :D
davout: no i think there's something to this

mircea_popescu: uh which one is that ?
punkman: like they can't say spain, stella, etc
mircea_popescu: nah, the dropped e is a french specialty.

punkman: as in stash house?
mircea_popescu: apparently.
mircea_popescu: dude the argentina drama...
davout: what's a 'stash house' ?
mircea_popescu: so now the president is claiming that the evil guys (unspecified) that made the da guy falsely claim she's involved in destrtoying the trial of the iranian terrorists that blew up the jews, also killed him, to make her look even worse!
mircea_popescu: this could be in a book.
mircea_popescu: davout the usians are insane. it is apparently a crime to have a house where there are drugs.
mircea_popescu: except it's a meaningless ofence nobody prosecutes seriously, because it can get the jury to waste time / negotiate a conviction down, and the punishments are minor anyway.
mircea_popescu: ie, you won't get a conviction on it straight ; if you're also prosecuting other indictments it can either blow up, ruin your other counts or at most succeed for no benefit, as it'll get rolled into the other counts.
mircea_popescu: meanwhile in the other pole of insanity,

davout: french civil service...
mircea_popescu: holy shit abdullah died.
davout: french civil service is this kind office where the late-comers greet the early-leavers in the stairwell
mircea_popescu: davout hang the lot.
mircea_popescu: anyway, enough excitement for one night.

ben_vulpes: "THEY'RE KISSING!"
ben_vulpes: a real, as mircea_popescu sez, lolwut moment
ben_vulpes: (mind you, the girl in question was herself running around nekkid)
undata: she's right, rubbing food holes? ewwww!
nubbins`: word holes too
mircea_popescu: ben_vulpes wait, this was a little girl ?
mircea_popescu: kakobrekla lol. no, fuck her.
undata: nubbins`: I've always thought it ample evidence of there being no god that food and air share one, refuse recreation and procreation another
mircea_popescu: !up psgs
mircea_popescu: undata how's that logic go ?
psgs: Thanks mircea_popescu :)
undata: mircea_popescu: separate hole for air; no choking on food
undata: etc
mircea_popescu: sure. who're you ?
undata: although he could just have a sense of humor
assbot: circular laser engraver engineering [ Bounty ] ... ( http://bit.ly/1JvRBbt )
nubbins`: ^ for lulz
mircea_popescu: undata if the air and food weren't meeting you couldn't likely speak
mircea_popescu: "I would be willing to offer a negotiable fee or bounty to anyone who could solve this engineering problem."
mircea_popescu: shit, let's do a cold fusion and circle cvadrature bounty on tardstalk!
nubbins`: funny thing is, he was trying to solve this problem specifically for Blazedout419's $14,000 piece
nubbins` chuckles
undata: needing to make noise and generally not wanting to duplicate effort makes a fair amount of sense
mircea_popescu: "THE TRUTH BEHIND NUBBINS LIES AND TACTICS"

nubbins`: HEH yep
hanbot: is it really that hard a problem? what if you use a second laser to measure distance and focus the cutter?
danielpbarron: i bet he did the engraving on a disc and cut the B out after
punkman: you need a laser that doesn't just move in cartesian plane, solved problem but expensive
hanbot: it's always a polar "plane" anyway no?
punkman: what is?
hanbot: i imagine what you mean is that the cheapo laser has fixed distance focus. then it would cut on a spheric surface not really a cartesian plane.
hanbot: if it can actually adjust focus distance to make a real plane, then well...it can adjust focus distance.
asciilifeform: jurov: http://btc.yt/lxr/ident?_i=CMerkleBlock << e.g., this, is probably not supposed to happen. (click on identified, finds nothing.)
assbot: HEAD identifier search: CMerkleBlock ... ( http://bit.ly/1Ec17SY )
punkman: hanbot, oic what you mean. I don't know much about lasers, but I think focus adjustment wouldn't help for the vase example.

mircea_popescu: nubbins` you know in retrospect, i don't actually blame the woodcarver idiot. he's just some monkey doing what he should be doing : monkeying.
mircea_popescu: i blame undressen horowitz and paul graham and fucking bill gates. that's who i blame.
mircea_popescu: and a whole shitload of "charity" in africa isn't going towash this off of them. poor monkey is doing what they claiemd he should be doing. fucking frauds.
mircea_popescu: he's exactly their fucking poster child : politically aware, rhetorically prepared, ready to lie and fake it all the way.
mircea_popescu: lol totally ben_vulpes hanbot has it : the little nubbin was angling for your ass.

asciilifeform: object on right hand side of photograph is plastic lid (why??? ask them, not me. with it on, the device looks precisely like the non-sata version.)
asciilifeform: presently backing up the original contents, to restore later (why? so can test auto-diddler that pumps in everything in one go.)
asciilifeform: it still remains to be answered, what these are for.
asciilifeform: i.e. is user expecting an interface of some kind? or just running a node for the warm emotions
mircea_popescu: running node for the purpose of having nodes on the network.
asciilifeform: and how is he to know that the machine is working ?
mircea_popescu: he's not really to care.
asciilifeform: well, what if trivial malfunction (frayed cable, or he forgot to forward port 8333 or whatnot)
asciilifeform: recall that we snipped upnp.
asciilifeform: i'd suggest sticking a simple status display (blocks synched, connection count) on port 80.
asciilifeform: (on lan, naturally)
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform nah, because guy knows the ip and can just check if a node answers there
mircea_popescu: if not, throw out unit get new one.
asciilifeform: he may want to know if the disk has filled.
mircea_popescu: can pull it out.
asciilifeform: so we just want a simple brutal beast of 0.5.3-on-a-unix-box ?
mircea_popescu: pretty much.
jurov: asciilifeform: fixed, CMerkleBlock isn't supposed to be in 0.5.3 but i have put there newer cpp files by mistake
mircea_popescu: dude don't mix the shitstrands
asciilifeform: jurov: seems entirely dead now
jurov: O.o
asciilifeform: jurov: click on any of the sources.
jurov: irc.cpp does not exist but others work
asciilifeform: half what i'm seeing is a link to nowhere
asciilifeform: but yeah, main.cpp works
jurov: drat, i'll redo it anyway
jurov: this amazon caching really adds another dimension to everything

decimation: so one could get a usb3 to ethernet and make a cheap router too
asciilifeform: decimation: slow and wasteful
decimation: albeit a reliable usb3 to ethernet dongle is probably more costly than the device
asciilifeform: decimation: for slightly more one can get an actual router with multiple gbit ethernet jacks.
decimation wonders if any of this consumer grade junk has ecc ram
