asciilifeform '...the machine I would most like to develop is a pedal powered refrigerator and possibly freezer.' [00:08]
benkay why fridges spill all the cold air out every time one opens them, i'll never understand. [00:08]
mircea_popescu so did england justget eliminated ? [00:08]
asciilifeform ('absorption' type fridge fueled with the bugger's own fat would be considerably more efficient. but for some reason he did not suggest this variant.) [00:09]
asciilifeform benkay: i once worked with laboratory (-80C) units that didn't. a pump moved the cold air to reservoir when you turned the handle. room air pumped in, door opens. reverse when close hadle. [00:10]

benkay is this...sane? [00:11]
asciilifeform afaik this was to keep co2 crystals from covering everything [00:11]

mircea_popescu mike_c:whereas bitpay investors will get rich. << how'd you go about it ? [00:52]
mike_c well, acquisition is liquidity event for bitpay investors, but if appropriately priced would not affect acquirer's short-term market cap. [00:53]
mircea_popescu but also if appropriately priced it'd be priced at 0. [00:53]
nubbins` heh [00:54]
mike_c to rephrase: buying a $1b asset does not change market cap. [00:54]
mircea_popescu anyway, reason the contracts aren't signed yet is because i wanna see what the general community thinks [00:54]
mircea_popescu buying a 1bn asset for 1bn does not change book value [00:55]
mike_c right. [00:55]
mike_c it just feels like a situation where bitpay fiat investors would clean up but d.bpay investors could lose big. [00:56]
mircea_popescu alternatively, bitpay gets sold for $50k to facebook, which moves up 25% that month [00:57]
mircea_popescu bitpay fiat investors get wiped, d.bpay make bank [00:57]
mircea_popescu there's really very little way to price fraudulent sales. [00:57]
mircea_popescu facebook can announce a 20bn buy of something worth 0 any time it pleases. [00:57]
mircea_popescu odds are it will do so. [00:57]
mircea_popescu if actual bitcoin is at stake, it doing so becomes a certainty. [00:58]
mike_c yeah.. but if the returns are not well connected to the returns fiat investors see (btc forex risk ignored) it may not have the effect you are looking for. [00:58]
mircea_popescu well, fortuntely economy is additive. [00:59]
mircea_popescu anyway, do you see a constructive solution ? [00:59]
mike_c i'm not sure i see one you will like. [01:00]
mircea_popescu let me be the judge of that lol [01:00]
mike_c well, facebook doesn't just announce a 20bn purchase. they are public, they have to record what they pay. [01:00]
mike_c so you could use that purchase price. this does get complicated with (cash + stock + incentives) though. [01:01]
mircea_popescu to some degree [01:01]
* assbot removes voice from publio [01:01]
mircea_popescu but no, in general the "purchase price" is more of a pr device than an accounting device these days [01:01]
* assbot gives voice to publio [01:02]
mike_c there are both, the PR and the accounting. the PR being cash + stock + incentives. but cash + stock is accounting [01:02]
mike_c of course, the stock is generally restricted.. [01:03]
mike_c it's complicated. i'll ponder some more. [01:03]
mike_c in case you didn't realize, it's complicated! :D [01:04]

decimation re: moore's law http://www.theregister.co.uk/2014/06/18/intel_fpga_custom_chip/ [04:40]
assbot Intel reveals its FrankenChip ARM killer: one FPGA and one Xeon IN ONE SOCKET The Register [04:40]
asciilifeform decimation: for some years, there were fpga on the market that fit into an intel or amd cpu socket [04:51]
asciilifeform decimation: built by nallatech (nsa contractor) and a few other outfits. thus, golden toilet prices [04:51]
decimation it is interesting, but there's no word on the details, like dynamic reconfiguration [04:52]
asciilifeform but at least these were traditional fpga and one could (at least in the case of xilinx) use linux toolchain, traditional vhdl/verilog, etc [04:52]
* assbot removes voice from Mats_cd03 [04:52]
decimation you think that won't be the case with this intel chip? [04:52]
asciilifeform in the case of the intel product, even if it is placed on open market - you'll have to wait for reverse-engineered loader [04:52]
asciilifeform (intel never once in its entire life published anything but a mockery of 'open source.' see their 'open' bios, for example.) [04:53]
decimation but... this is intel's solution to "open" arm competition. Why would they start with a proprietary toolchain? [04:53]
asciilifeform this is merely idiocy of the journalist [04:53]
asciilifeform afaik there is no mass-market arm/fpga combo ic [04:53]
decimation no, but somehow according to the journalist companies like google would prefer to buy this intel fpga/cpu rather than an arm chip [04:54]
asciilifeform (actually there may be. fpga/cpu combo is a dime a dozen - xilinx made ppc/fpga cores for ages. but a modern pc arch cpu is something rather else) [04:54]

asciilifeform modern clock rate [04:55]
decimation probably ... in an intel fab [04:55]
asciilifeform idea is, intel fears for its life, because x86 (and all the compatibility kludges that enable 20 years of crapola to run) is doomed. [04:56]
BingoBoingo Ah, features like an MMU aren't enough anymore. Now your need the pretense of "fast" [04:56]
asciilifeform danger of sane folks moving onto linux/arm (or whatever other arch) [04:56]
decimation aside from the journalist, there is an implict admission from intel here ... "We have no idea how to organize the transistors on our chip, here - have an FPGA" [04:56]
* assbot gives voice to Mats_cd03 [04:56]
asciilifeform so gotta keep x86/winblows relevant somehow [04:56]
asciilifeform this is a lock-in play. [04:56]
decimation well, it's already happened on the mobile world - which is the only world selling chips in large quantities [04:57]
asciilifeform intel did once propose to stuff x86 turdballs in phones - to laughter around the world [04:57]
decimation intel's afraid that google et. al. will switch to arm in the server room - leaving the x86 market to ... nobody at all [04:58]
asciilifeform well, the high end [04:58]
decimation even those xscale chips that flopped weren't x86 as I recall [04:58]
asciilifeform (where their margin is fattest) [04:58]
decimation yeah there's still the "computing" computing market that mostly uses xeons [04:58]
asciilifeform xscale was their attempt at the true microcontroller market [04:58]
decimation but I don't think intel is going to survive on xeon chips alone [04:58]
asciilifeform the only people truly married to x86 are the folks bound to microshit [04:59]
asciilifeform i think at this point this isn't really controversial [04:59]
decimation and the scientific computing market is not wed to microshit [05:00]
decimation so if there is a serious linux based alternative cpu for them -- they are gone [05:00]
asciilifeform there is a reason we have the word - 'wintel' [05:00]
asciilifeform the two are 'partners in crime' [05:01]
decimation they still might sell some low end chips to idiots who want to run word or whatever [05:01]
decimation microsoft is pretty much in the same position [05:02]
decimation there are some games and business software that they have lock-in on [05:02]

asciilifeform very telling detail - neither intel nor amd publish microcode documentation. (intel's microcode loader is known only from the leaked ami src, afaik. amd's is public. intel crypts their patches, amd - no. both release opaque binary blobs for microcode, no docs.) [05:17]
decimation it is odd that one of the companies doesn't try to be open to get more market share [05:17]
asciilifeform lol [05:18]
asciilifeform intel is arm of usg. amd - produces clones at the crown's pleasure (see agreement with intel) [05:18]
asciilifeform stops playing ball - no more clone. [05:19]
* TheNewDeal has quit (Quit: http://www.kiwiirc.com/ - A hand crafted IRC client) [05:19]
decimation but it's probably the case that if you are correct - that these microcode patches may weaken usg's own infrastructure [05:19]
BingoBoingo I keep telling people an OpenSparc *nix netbook would sell [05:20]
asciilifeform usg is not interested in securing own infrastructure in this sense. [05:20]

BingoBoingo fluffypony: So you descriminate against most derps then, reddit will nevar let you hear the end of it. [20:26]
fluffypony BingoBoingo: exactly [20:26]
pankkake also wallet and node are separate processes [20:27]
fluffypony yes [20:27]
pankkake you can run multiple wallets on the same node etc. [20:27]
fluffypony and atm we're working on properly daemonising bitmonerod, because it only runs in interactive mode [20:28]
* kermit has quit (Quit: Leaving.) [20:28]
fluffypony and splitting simplewallet into rpcwallet (daemonised) and simplewallet (interactive CLI) [20:28]
fluffypony oh and it has a 24-word deterministic seed (based on Electrum's wordlist) [20:29]

fluffypony it has DEFINITELY lowered the gap between CPU and GPU miners [20:30]
kakobrekla IGNORE THE PARTS THAT DONT WORK [20:30]
kakobrekla my new mantra. [20:30]
fluffypony kakobrekla: of the whitepaper... [20:30]
kakobrekla well im keepin it nao [20:30]
pankkake but as always, the useful/working things could just be ported to Bitcoin [20:30]
fluffypony pankkake: ring signatures would be INCREDIBLY kludgy in Bitcoin [20:31]
pankkake why? [20:31]
benkay anonymity is also a red herring [20:31]
fluffypony gmaxwell has a test implementation of it, but judging by his comments in #monero-dev he doesn't like its fit with BTC much [20:31]
fluffypony benkay: in what sense? [20:31]
fluffypony try a transaction, look at it on the blockchain explorer, and then see what useful info you can derive at a mixin of 0 [20:32]

benkay lol what are the solutions going to disappear? [20:37]
fluffypony what are the solutions? coinjoin? mixers? stealth addresses? hoping that the recipient never leaks the tx id? [20:38]
benkay buying coins offline. [20:40]
benkay sending them to fresh addresses. [20:41]
benkay broadcasting txns like a boss [20:41]
benkay (that is to say quietly). [20:41]

* kermit (unknown@pdpc/supporter/bronze/kermit) has joined #bitcoin-assets [20:42]
fluffypony and then when you buy your illegal drugs or your very legal banned-thing-in-the-country-in-which-you-live you send it TO someone from those fresh addresses, and they can figure out who you bought it from [20:42]
fluffypony I would hazard that buying offline is even more dangerous than OTC on IRC [20:43]
BingoBoingo What, you don't use BitBet mixing? [20:43]
benkay who can figure out who i bought what from now? [20:43]
fluffypony benkay: when you are "buying coins offline" you're buying them FROM someone, no? [20:44]
benkay de veras [20:44]
fluffypony some fucktard from localbitcoins or mycelium or whatever [20:44]
benkay otc counts as offline imho [20:44]
fluffypony either way [20:44]
fluffypony that exposes you [20:44]
benkay how again? [20:44]
benkay and to whom? [20:45]
fluffypony gubmint suspects you are dealing in illicit books, so they setup a sting to sell you BTC - they are now able to watch you spend those coins on said illegal books [20:45]
fluffypony because they are the ones selling to you [20:45]
benkay dafuq [20:45]
benkay so...assume they've suborned one of my regular coin sources? [20:45]
benkay you have this whole story concocted that you're not sharing, man. [20:46]
fluffypony no story - I'm arguing that a use case will exist for untraceability (or optional traceability, if you will) in future [20:46]
benkay and i'm telling you i can buy coins untraceably right now. [20:47]
benkay unless my source is suborned. [20:47]
benkay in which case, even monero's SOL. [20:47]
fluffypony not entirely [20:48]
fluffypony the Monero blockchain won't reveal your balance, when you spend, how much you spend, or on what [20:48]
benkay and all the btc blockchain shows is that some random addr got some coins at some point [20:49]
benkay and then that those coins went to a known drug dealer at another point [20:49]
benkay if the shipment gets intercepted on the way back to me, monero's not going to save my ass [20:49]
benkay you're not actually doing the attack surface analysis man [20:49]
* assbot removes voice from Diablo-D3 [20:50]
fluffypony drugs are not the only use case [20:50]
benkay thing-im-not-supposed-to-have-#42 [20:50]
fluffypony but you've just explained the problem in your example [20:51]
fluffypony if you're being targeted by "them" then they know "some random adde" [20:51]
fluffypony addr [20:51]
benkay how? [20:51]
fluffypony aforementioned sting operation [20:51]
benkay suborned my dealer, you're saying. [20:51]
fluffypony yes [20:51]
benkay the coin salesman [20:51]
fluffypony and then you said that Monero was SOL [20:51]
fluffypony and I said it wasn't and explained why [20:52]
fluffypony and then you launched forth into a circuitous argument [20:52]
benkay so the dealer can't say i sent coins to that address with monero? [20:52]
pankkake also the idea here is that by default everything you do is hard to track [20:52]
fluffypony he can say all he want [20:52]
fluffypony he can't demonstrate you did [20:52]
fluffypony the blockchain won't reveal you did [20:52]
benkay that i did what now? sent coins to my drug dealer? [20:52]
fluffypony yes [20:52]
benkay k - but what about the package interception? [20:52]
benkay the posession of illicit goods is what enforcement cares about, right? [20:53]
fluffypony depends - if you're talking about drugs, sure [20:53]
fluffypony stolen goods? they just care that you bought it [20:53]
fluffypony what about digital goods? [20:53]
benkay digital goods being stolen coins? [20:54]
fluffypony no - I mean if you're buying digital goods [20:54]
fluffypony iTunes vouchers, for instance :-P [20:54]
benkay but illegal iTunes that i'm not supposed to have? [20:55]
fluffypony yes [20:55]
fluffypony so assuming that the delivery of the goods is not compromised [20:55]
benkay okay so the story is that i get busted for buying badTunes credits because i sent coins to the badTunes address? [20:56]
asciilifeform they... suborn your cook. who poisons you. blockchain - didn't help! cry? [20:56]

fluffypony well we'll see, I think time will tell whether untraceability is a desirous thing [20:57]
benkay i'm telling you that it's adequately doable right now that the sidechannels are the real risk, and that no amount of blockchainery is going to ameliorate your sidechannel risks. [20:57]
benkay can someone who's not a retarded american tell me if i'm off my fucking rocker? [20:58]
benkay retarded american child [20:58]
benkay (i'm not calling you names, fluffypony - that's me ridiculing myself) [20:59]

fluffypony "YOU DIDN'T PUT A SMILEY ON IT, YOU MUST BE SAYING SOMETHING MEAN" [21:00]
benkay ugh internet people [21:00]
benkay anyways [21:00]
danielpbarron how can law enforcement be sure it's you who spent the coins if you simply send them to an intermediate address first [21:00]
benkay (biscuit coma) [21:00]
fluffypony danielpbarron: taint analysis - it's the reason that coinjoin and mixing isn't considered safe [21:01]
benkay danielpbarron: or for that matter if the addr in question's never been seen on the network, and you're not idiotic enough to associate it with any IP that could be associated with you. [21:01]
benkay ugh taint [21:01]
benkay *ragequit* [21:01]
danielpbarron there is no taint in Bitcoin [21:01]
fluffypony http://www.scribd.com/doc/227369807/Bitcoin-Coinjoin-Not-Anonymous-v01 [21:01]
fluffypony that would be a start [21:01]
assbot Bitcoin Coinjoin Not Anonymous v01 [21:01]
danielpbarron if i send funds to an address, you cannot be sure its my address; maybe i gave them away to a random address [21:02]
* fluffypony shrugs [21:03]
fluffypony nobody's forcing anyone to find Monero interesting [21:03]
fluffypony if you like maths and cryptography you may find our ongoing peer review of the CryptoNote whitepaper interesting [21:03]
fluffypony http://monero.cc/downloads/whitepaper_annotated.pdf [21:03]
danielpbarron if you pay your drug dealer from your coinbase wallet, that can be traced [21:04]
fluffypony I've gotta bounce, at a friend's house and we're going to go eat and drink [21:04]
danielpbarron and i suppose if you send from a machine that is associated with you, that could be traced [21:05]
danielpbarron but i don't see how the blockchain reveals any info that definitively associates the funds with you [21:05]

mircea_popescu meanwhile unattached in-their-own-oppinion dom guys tell me all about how alpha really they are, and then we leave. [22:56]
mircea_popescu with the kitten. who, mind you, gets up in a cab and drives away with two guys who are clearly foreigners, barely speak the language, and she's just met two hours prior in a bar at a bdsm munch. [22:57]
mircea_popescu past desperate attempts at cockblocking by the entire collected "alpha" population. apparently my chick's unstoppable and really fucking scary to boys. [22:57]
mircea_popescu so : there's seeking and then there's seeking. [22:58]

mircea_popescu My introduction to the real American nightmare starts back in the early ‘80s. Unfortunately after more than 16 years of school, somewhere along the line I picked up the absurd, pompous notion that I could read and understand plain English. Some friends introduced me to a group of people who were having ‘tax code’ readings and discussions. [23:23]
mircea_popescu srsly, the notion that there exists such a thing as "plain language"... [23:23]
fluffypony ThickAsThieves: I'd love to have a voice channel, but I think it would work better if we scheduled it - like a session every two weeks or something? [23:24]
mike_c i think it's somewhat valid. plain = not a lot of jargon. [23:24]
mircea_popescu basically the problem of intelligent people is that the knowledge needed is so vast... i could readily render the pretense and nonsense of it, but i don't have the time/patience to hang out in every nook and cranny. [23:24]
mircea_popescu mike_c "plain language" is the conceptual equivalent of "measurement in se". how long is your desk ? [23:24]

asciilifeform 'I have never seen unintelligent or children of average intelligence muster the intellectual power that causes them to believe their own mind to be better and more trustworthy than reality, although the enjoyment of every kind of magic and fairytales and mystic and wizardry is a sign that many _wish_ their minds were better than reality at a certain age.

asciilifeform s and children experience that they can guess faster than they can learn. This latter thing is what I mostly associate with stupidity, however, and why I do _not_ equate intelligence with absence of stupidity.

mircea_popescu moreover, and more dangerously : a term of art that has a common speech homophone will only notify those in the know of its status [23:28]
mircea_popescu it's not going to (nor can it) notify the innocent. [23:28]
asciilifeform try explaining how to... tie a bowline sea knot - in 'plain language.' [23:29]

mike_c you can't. nor can you specify the tax code in plain language. [23:30]
mircea_popescu DO YOU LIEK SPEAK PLAIN ENGLISH ??! [23:30]
asciilifeform the most elegant example of the agony of 'plain language' is: attempts at computer programming systems which purported to use such. [23:30]

mircea_popescu In retrospect, the situation was laughable because here I was living on peanut butter and bread (or Ritz crackers when I could afford to splurge) for months at a time.

mircea_popescu other over our situations, when she in her grandmotherly fashion tried to convince me that I would be “healthier” eating cat food (like her) rather than trying to get all my substance from peanut butter and bread. I couldn’t quite go there, but the impression was made. [23:34]
