BingoBoingo It's apparently a propaganda film telling children it is ok to be fat, stupid and incompetent. Stuff works out jsut look at reddit. [06:04]
mircea_popescu incidentally, i've said this a few times but it readily gets forgotten : coinbase fragmentation is threatening to become a rather serious problem for bitcoin eventually. [06:05]
mircea_popescu could be a much stricter limit on scalability than the block size [06:05]
mircea_popescu specifically : the total number of bitcoin units of account that can be circulating is 2100000000000000. [06:06]
mircea_popescu if we actually get maximal utilization, which means every single unit of account is independent, [06:06]
mircea_popescu the system will have to track 2.1 * 10^ 15 items. which, at say half a kb weight each, will cost exabytes to fully move [06:07]
davout and at this point transaction fees can't exist anymore [06:09]
mircea_popescu exactly. [06:09]
punkman gonna need more decimal points [06:10]
mircea_popescu there's an entire ugly unspecified state downstream people keep pushing under the rug [06:10]
mircea_popescu would really benefit from more discussion and modelling. [06:10]
mircea_popescu because you know for a fact as btc will run up to 10k next, the "consumers need this improvement" thing will be lowering the spam limit. [06:10]
mircea_popescu which itself is sensible, but wtf does it do ? [06:10]
mircea_popescu punkman obviously there are no decimal points. nor were there ever. [06:11]
punkman eh more, zeroes then [06:11]
BingoBoingo Integers all the way down. [06:11]
mircea_popescu this is oft repeatred you know "we'll just add more zeroes" [06:12]
mircea_popescu orly ? how ? what will it do ? [06:12]
davout scalabitchity [06:13]
jurov lol the programming cheerleaders.. i've heard fantastic tales from bygone era in czechoslovakia about female *system* programmers one would literally go for debugging help in the darkest hours [06:13]
jurov "she even made me a coffee" [06:13]
BingoBoingo Eh, so Satoshi actually invented Bitcoin with too many units. Too much divisibility [06:14]
mircea_popescu jurov actually the she-programmers of yugo were famous in romania in the 80s [06:14]
punkman "track 2.1 * 10^ 15 items" blocksize limit certainly protects against this [06:15]
davout "will cost exabytes to fully move" <<< it's ok because moore's law [06:16]
punkman I don't see why adding more zeros isn't possible, nontrivial sure, probably on the order of changing workfunction [06:17]
mircea_popescu do you understand what effects it has ? [06:17]
punkman haven't really thought about it [06:18]
mircea_popescu exactly my point. [06:18]
mircea_popescu collectively we've not spent nearly enough thinking about that angle. [06:18]
BingoBoingo It may just be that the last 4 digits are there for precision and signalling. [06:20]
mircea_popescu possible. [06:20]
mircea_popescu currently it works with the last 5 digits pretty much being unusable other than for that. [06:21]
mircea_popescu so hgow much can be yielded ? 1 more ? 2 ? 5 ? a full 32 ? a full 64 more ? [06:21]
punkman on an unrelated note, I think I have a rough algorithm for dealing with V patch conflicts [06:21]
mircea_popescu that should nbe interesting to see [06:21]
BingoBoingo Could be we end up with 1 less [06:21]
mircea_popescu BingoBoingo think about it this way, the spam tx limit is currently worth very little. if it runs up to 10k it will be worth cents. [06:22]
BingoBoingo I could see the spam tx limit run up to 100k and be worth dollars [06:23]
mircea_popescu and it can not be underscored enough how that is a much larger problem than the recent block size nonsense. [06:23]
mircea_popescu here, we discusased "potential users" and the blocks haven't been full etc [06:23]
BingoBoingo Seriously this is the shit that needs modeled. [06:23]
mircea_popescu there, we'll be discussing "you may not use bitcoin to transfer less than 2.8 dollars' worth" [06:23]
mircea_popescu very hugely different sort of limitation on the usage. [06:24]
BingoBoingo Indeed [06:24]
BingoBoingo at $100k bitcoin we could be talking about no practical way to send less than a crisp hundred dollar bill [06:25]
mircea_popescu at least as it is now. [06:25]
BingoBoingo But at that point the hundred dollar bill might not be worth a loaf of bread [06:26]
mircea_popescu why not ? [06:26]
BingoBoingo The Wiemar USistan [06:27]
mircea_popescu i doubt it. see, wiemar collapsed because THERE WAS NO currency. at all. [06:27]
mircea_popescu here, there's bitcoin [06:27]
mircea_popescu it forces the paper and assorted fiats into stability. [06:27]
mircea_popescu sorta like the emperor of flies can't happen with an adult present. [06:27]
davout what spam limit are you referring to? [06:28]
mircea_popescu what was it, 20k [06:28]
mircea_popescu 5k ? [06:29]
davout the minimum output size? [06:30]
davout the dust thing? [06:31]
mircea_popescu ya [06:31]
davout it's not very clear to me how this thing works [06:33]
mircea_popescu which thing ? [06:33]
assbot [MPEX] [S.MPOE] 31393 @ 0.00073424 = 23.05 BTC [-] {3} [06:34]
mircea_popescu "Welcome to Bitcoin SIG We are a group of Mensa members who are interested in cryptocurrency and enjoy discussing the developments occurring in this space." [06:35]
mircea_popescu ahahahaah o god. [06:35]
davout looks like a limit based on the minimum relay fee [06:35]
davout but that is only enforced at relay level, and by some miners [06:35]
davout it's by no means a hard protocol limit [06:36]
mircea_popescu davout for sure not. but it does practically worek to keep tx large enough, and more importantly, coinbases few. [06:36]
mircea_popescu only works because btc is not too valuable atm. [06:36]
mircea_popescu what happens when this prop is no longer available ? [06:36]
mircea_popescu we're, at least to my eyes, in the situation where we've built something against a sleeping rhino. once it gets up and moves, what happens ? [06:37]
davout looks to me like this highlights another aspect of the tragedy of the commons thing, because miners don't bear the full cost of a large UTXO, they have no particular incentive to give fee rebates to UTXO-consolidating transactions [06:38]
mircea_popescu quite. [06:39]
mircea_popescu i think for a while gentmenan-ness will prevail and the consolidaitons will be mined in preference [06:39]
mircea_popescu but this is no sort of solution. [06:39]
mircea_popescu ie, you'll never have that many legitimate txns that also consolidate. especially as the size opf bitcoin economy increases. [06:40]
mircea_popescu by very definition, increased size = fragmentation of coinage. [06:40]
mircea_popescu and i suspect the coinbase count will be, going forward, one of the most important metrics of economic health. [06:40]
mircea_popescu sorta like replacement for gnp [06:41]
davout you mean the spendable outputs? [06:42]
mircea_popescu yes. [06:42]
assbot [MPEX] [S.MPOE] 19566 @ 0.00073718 = 14.4237 BTC [+] [06:42]
mircea_popescu coinbase count = the number of available inputs. [06:42]
davout ah, my definition of coinbase is a spendable output that was not created by spending another output, ie. new money [06:43]
mircea_popescu fucking horrid terminology, we really shouldn't be in a situation where input and outpuit means the same thing [06:43]
mircea_popescu davout well that's the meaningful sense of the term when you're doing graph traversal and whatnot, cause it's where it starts. but in this context it seemed to me it'd rather mean , "clumps of satoshi available to be spent" [06:44]
davout it's an output in the bathroom, it's an input in the bedroom [06:44]
mircea_popescu bitcoin is too phalocentric. [06:44]

assbot Logged on 11-09-2015 08:50:47; punkman: not sure if you can bootstrap SBCL without any C though [10:46]
asciilifeform come on folks, compilation is not magic. [10:46]
asciilifeform and 'c' is most certainly not magical. just a piss-poor macro assembler of a kind. [10:47]
punkman asciilifeform: I just read that SBCL has 20k lines of C [10:47]
asciilifeform punkman: sure does. mainly for building bootstrapper. but also for unix i/o [10:47]
asciilifeform as described earlier. [10:47]
punkman so if I want to bootstrap SBCL on say picolisp, how much of that C do I have to rewrite? [10:48]
asciilifeform picolisp is NOT A COMMONLISP [10:48]
asciilifeform has, for fucks sake, dynamic scope [10:48]
asciilifeform NOT ALL LISPS ARE THE SAME [10:49]
asciilifeform picolisp is less similar to common lisp than 'c' is to 'pascal' [10:49]
punkman ok, on dream or mulisp or other then [10:49]
asciilifeform ditto [10:49]
asciilifeform 'dream' is a 'scheme'; [10:49]
phf you could target picolisp from sbcl, same way as you're right now targeting the unix to common lisp machine abstraction layer, that's written in c [10:49]

asciilifeform aha phf has it. but n00bz always assume that lisps are interchangeable [10:50]
asciilifeform they are not. [10:50]
asciilifeform it is important to know why items such as picolisp and mulisp exist - compactness. (and to a lesser extent, 'fits in head'.) [10:51]
asciilifeform 'targeting' them as if they were c-machine arch would result in a terrific blob of unreadable shit [10:51]
