mod6: ahh! ok.

mod6: I was mostly referring to what was found in http://logs.bvulpes.com/chainstate , especially yesterday
mod6: well, not "yesterday" as much as starting around '486153'
trinque: I had a node last night that was stuck a few hundred blocks back until restarted, then caught up quickly.
trinque: sync mechanism needs serious work
mircea_popescu: iirc ben_vulpes was saying something about mimisbrunnr being blackholed.
shinohai: http://btcbase.org/log/2017-09-20#1716186 <<< One often finds the finer luxuries of life in such establishments, no?
a111: Logged on 2017-09-20 19:40 mircea_popescu: and in other ways and means, i just bought a pile of primo cigars, presidents and romeo y juliets and whatnot at this... cathouse, basically.
shinohai: I should like to have one of these cigars and nice bottle of Pernod Fils to enjoy with it.
mircea_popescu: i dunno about them luxuries, it was kinda small...
shinohai: btw mircea_popescu, chic from last night said she received deposit and is email bombing me about "el dinero de los refugiados Venezolanos"
trinque: curious whether people's nodes are still receiving transactions and other protocol chatter while not receiving blocks; mine was, usually is.
mircea_popescu: about what now ?!
mircea_popescu: trinque usually how it goes
mircea_popescu: the original conceptualization of the blocks/blockchain suffers from evident lack of experience ; the designer mind (constructively regarded, there was scarce design gone into the prototype) seems unaware of the actual order of priority of things, so what if blocks wait for txn etc.
asciilifeform: http://btcbase.org/log/2017-09-21#1716586 << dulap ( While Supplies Last!1111 ) is current fwiw

trinque: not what I'm asking. my nodes are current at the moment too.
asciilifeform: and yes if it isn't stuck in verification blackhole, it'll be churning tx crapola
asciilifeform: this is ordinary
asciilifeform: http://btcbase.org/log/2017-09-21#1716589 << it isn't merely a shit design, it's a shit implementation of the shit design.

mircea_popescu: truth be told elements of original bitcoin suffered very much the same fate as human elements of the early bitcoin : on the long term, practice is a weighing machine
mircea_popescu: they got weighted.
asciilifeform: 'Without Core sabotaging BTC by artificially imposing the block size limit, bitcoin would be much more widely used today. Heck, countries like Venezuela might even have everyday citizens really using it to buy bread, milk, toilet paper. Many African countries could use it too.' << lol!!
asciilifeform: pinoys finally replaced with actual mechanical shannonizer ?
mircea_popescu: recall back when it was "CYPRUS!!!" ? or for that matter "ARGENTINA!!!" ?
mircea_popescu: they'll never run out of "obvious" idiocy, the schmucks.
mircea_popescu: "artificially imposed limits" ie, "you are scum and may not interact with things".
asciilifeform: moarmoarmoar socialisms!11! terabyteblox!
mircea_popescu: "are you a young leader getting ready to change the world ? consider procreation instead. god put procreation on earth to keep monkeys such as you busy! and it works, and has worked for generations!"
asciilifeform: somehow the fact of ~traditional~ bitcoin not quite paying for its network to fully exist, is not obvious to the plankton
asciilifeform: but for gb blox -- the stone soup, will somehow materialize and pay, veril
mircea_popescu: actually what's obvious is the other part : SOMEWHAT paying means there's some paying going on ?! HOLY SHIT NO
mircea_popescu: it's not that they couldn't pay for the "house" and "education" and etc.
mircea_popescu: it's that THEY COULD PAY NO FRACTION OF IT!
mircea_popescu: and nothing else is supposed to! bitcoin as it stands currently is throwing the curve.
mircea_popescu: that's their problem, and what they set out to resolve, uncomprehendingly but with all the dedication of biology.
asciilifeform: !~later tell apeloyee i studied your algo, it (aside from truly massive cost, that would annihilate savings from newton, or barrett, or just about any other trick) ~still leaks~, because shifting by >wordsize is a fundamentally different op from shifting <wordsize; and the only way for this to not be true is for all shifts to happen as a series of wordsize shifts; and a shift by ffawidth-1 (max shiftness) would then consist of ffawor
asciilifeform: dness shift operations; and ergo all shifts must consist of ffawordness shift ops, as i described in http://btcbase.org/log/2017-09-20#1716343 .
a111: Logged on 2017-09-20 21:54 asciilifeform: e.g., N is a number to shift, Q is shift amt, R is result, S = l_shift(N, 1); mux(S, R, R, iszero(Q - 1)); S = l_shift(N, 1); mux(S, R, R, iszero(Q - 2)); ...... mux(S, R, R, iszero(Q - (width-1)))
jhvh1: asciilifeform: The operation succeeded.
asciilifeform: motherfucking line breaks.
a111: Logged on 2017-09-20 21:37 asciilifeform: afaik this cannot be done without a physical barrel shifter of the given bitness.
asciilifeform: d00d was right in his observation that you ~could~ use a normalizing/denormalizing ( though proof is still a first class bitch ) algo, IF you had a secret 1..ffawidth shift. but you don't.
asciilifeform: at least not one that doesn't bring the machine to its knees.
lobbes: https://archive.is/XmY7k << lulzy. Will be fun to see how fakenewz "unhappens" these discoveries
trinque: "The prospect of our own NSA, CIA and FBI becoming politically weaponized" << wahahaha
trinque: the prospect!
lobbes: Who could've predicted??
asciilifeform: lobbes: will be unhappened exactly like every other time
a111: Logged on 2014-06-04 00:08 asciilifeform: BingoBoingo: the buggers' traditional defense is to pretend that the event was a non-event - or, if this is impractical, to continue living in an imaginary world where they 'scooped' the story first, and all of the 'unsanctioned' discussion never happened.
asciilifeform: '~All general-purpose modular reduction involves numerator- and denominator-dependent branches... ...includes modular reduction for elliptic curve arithmetic, in which the numerator is secret; and modular reduction for RSA, in which the numerator (plaintext message) or denominator (p, q) can be secret.'
ben_vulpes: mircea_popescu: portland has 2 seasons: rainy and sunny
ben_vulpes: microclime apparently extends up where i live now as well
trinque: as if white girls don't top the list of folks listening to kanye

jurov: Hi all, whoever placed orders via coinbr last 2 weeks, they were not forwarded to mpex. I was notified, fixed the problem, cancelled the orders and restored all balances.
jurov: and due to that, i also missed qntra distribution, next time someone please kick me
jurov: shinohai: just make the same deed as you did with coinbr, but with "since now please please donate all shares to foundation"
mircea_popescu: how's life jurov
mircea_popescu: trinque "The prospect of our own NSA, CIA and FBI << the "our own" bit is the lulziest. pantsuit actually thought they own something in this world. and not just ourdemocracy, at that. i suppose the scum actually sees itself as rightful inheritors of like cultural europe and etcetera.

mircea_popescu: making up kanye west "black man" like they make up the barbies. when they age and clintonize they'll be making up obamas. black men in no sense whatsoever other than the needs of stupid white cunts.

ben_vulpes: fits with the dork's desire to make a kingdom appear out of nowhere though.
mircea_popescu: what's the problem with deedbot real estate anyway ?
mircea_popescu: or properly stated : why wouild i even consider considering anything else ?
trinque: "we had to make up an excuse to do an(other?) ICO scam"
ben_vulpes: mircea_popescu: i think "real estate" in terms of "entries in the namespace"
ben_vulpes: ah, we had a thread on this that's slipping my mind.
mircea_popescu: i think so
a111: Logged on 2016-11-23 16:07 mircea_popescu: think - currently deedbot administers a very narrow implementation of the gns, whereby if you claim to own X domain, it challenges you and if you pass it gives it to you.
