assbot ..::[ The Bitcoin Foundation ]::.. ... ( http://bit.ly/1UQkfe3 ) [00:08]
mod6 your latest two patches & corresponding seals were added. [00:08]
asciilifeform mod6: the www ? [00:08]
* copumpkin (~copumpkin@unaffiliated/copumpkin) has joined #bitcoin-assets [00:08]

assbot Index of /v ... ( http://bit.ly/1KTlXJl ) [00:08]
asciilifeform ah [00:08]
mod6 but you don't hvae to know the subdir to make the sync work properly. you just put the root URL of the given mirror [00:09]
asciilifeform ;;later tell mircea_popescu the malleus thing was a real win. nodez going strong. [00:09]

mircea_popescu cool. [00:10]
mod6 <+asciilifeform> http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=14-01-2016#1369573 << is somebody gonna write a full 'v' treatise ? << i think what we need is basically like an RFC of the thing to explain the overall concepts and baseline functions. this way anyone can implement their own V without having to parse mine, yours, or bens, or whomever.

mod6 I just need to get to it. lol. lot on my plate. if anyone would like to start work on this with direction from me that'd be fine too. just let me know. [00:11]
mircea_popescu (you may not know of all the 90s "urban revival" attempts that created such as modern portland etc, after a seattle blueprint) [00:11]
mod6 so currently, the main thing im working on/looking at is a possible high/low-S vpatch [00:14]
mircea_popescu http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=14-01-2016#1369526 << there is only one Great Cockroach, and all of these folks are merely fuzz upon its antennae. << it's funny how much of a judeoxtian fundamentalist you are seeing how you don't even alphabet! wouldn't something equally ridiculous like indian-whatever go better with your semiotic ideas ?

asciilifeform mod6: it could make sense as a toggle flag [00:15]
* Peter_Geschel has quit (Ping timeout: 276 seconds) [00:15]
asciilifeform esp. when we finally get that mine pool [00:15]
mircea_popescu mod6 basically all it needs is a test-and-substract. [00:15]
mod6 was thinking that. could just have a switch for "classic" mode where you get the 50/50 action on high/low, or only low-S. [00:15]
mircea_popescu (this can be tacked on at the end, the protocol is really that shitty) [00:15]
asciilifeform or all-highS [00:15]
asciilifeform (i still fail to grasp why we are caving to the enemy on this one) [00:16]
mod6 is there a reason for only high-S ? [00:16]
asciilifeform to fill our high-S-only pool, of course!111 [00:16]
mod6 ok, other than that? [00:16]
asciilifeform can't think of for what else [00:16]
asciilifeform thing is, like it or not, high-S is LEGITIMATELY bitcoin [00:16]
asciilifeform just as low-S [00:17]
mod6 yeup, ofc. [00:17]
asciilifeform if idiot miners arbitrarily decide not to mine tx-en that are equal to 3 congruent modulo 17, what, we also will not generate these ? [00:18]
mod6 but, i'd be nice to ship a bitcoinatron that actually bitcoinates without the weird shit. i'd like Mr. P. to be able to send coins without issues. [00:18]
mod6 *it'd [00:18]
asciilifeform to me this reads as an argument in favour of a high-S pool [00:19]
* twixisowned (~whatwaht@71-218-82-201.hlrn.qwest.net) has joined #bitcoin-assets [00:19]
asciilifeform rather than adding talmudistry to trb [00:19]
asciilifeform if idiot miners disregard perfectly legit tx because it tickles gavin's sphincter, [00:20]
mod6 so here's a thing -- if I make a vpatch for this, one doesn't need to build with it either. but one could, and that should resolve the issue. [00:20]
asciilifeform somebody ought to be collecting those fees! [00:20]
mircea_popescu asciilifeform i dun think you understand how this works. [00:20]
mircea_popescu blocks aren't individual items. they are chained. [00:20]
asciilifeform aha.. [00:20]
* Peter_Geschel (~Peter_Ges@94.102.50.47) has joined #bitcoin-assets [00:21]
asciilifeform and miner gets to select ANY valid tx-en for his block [00:21]
* trixisowned has quit (Ping timeout: 256 seconds) [00:21]
mircea_popescu there isn't a "you do yours and i do mine" thing here. IF we decide to mine as much as one single high s block, this INVALIDATES all further work of all noncompliant miners. forever. [00:21]
mircea_popescu For. Ever. [00:21]
mircea_popescu we currently can at any point revert to high-s, or any-s. [00:21]
asciilifeform iirc nobody patched prb so that ~block~ containing high-S is invalid [00:21]
mircea_popescu they can not. [00:21]
asciilifeform only that they are not selected for blocks [00:21]
asciilifeform or relayed [00:21]
mircea_popescu yes, they did, that's what the "soft fork" debacle was all about. [00:21]
asciilifeform i thought it was only the relay and selector [00:22]
asciilifeform (and, naturally, tx generator) [00:22]
mircea_popescu bitcoin split specificallyt because miners "voted" to approve the (non controversial, even here, see logs) patch [00:22]
mircea_popescu then failed to implement it [00:22]
mircea_popescu then mined a block with high-s and the whole shebang was forked for 36 hours [00:22]
mircea_popescu this is why we do not give a rat;s ass about "voting", fundamentally : they already had a vote that indicated ~100% miner agreement that then had 0% actual support. [00:23]
* asciilifeform digs for the prb src [00:23]
mircea_popescu and incidentally - if it weren't cheaper to implement than to just forget it, IT WOULD HAVE BEEN DROPPED [00:23]
mircea_popescu votes or no votes. [00:23]
asciilifeform what made it cheaper ? [00:23]
mircea_popescu (non controversial, even here, see logs) [00:23]
mircea_popescu anyway, understand the strategic situation here. i can, at this and any future point, decide to revert this soft fork. they can not, they are committed to forever sticking to it. [00:24]
mircea_popescu i'm not about to lead this ace into random trick. [00:24]
mircea_popescu blockbridge! [00:25]
asciilifeform if prb considers blocks after certain height containing high-S to be invalid, in what sense was the fork soft ? [00:25]
asciilifeform i thought 'soft' forks were ones which ~only~ concerned relaying [00:25]
mircea_popescu mno. soft forks are a narrowing of the protocol. [00:25]
mircea_popescu they can be applied by convention. as the chance is still valid by everyone's rule, no changes are needed. [00:26]
mircea_popescu hard forks are a change of the protocol. as the change is NOT valid by everyone's rules, it is definitionally an alt coin. [00:26]
asciilifeform aha. so that would be if prb behaved as i believed it did, where it will still eat a block generated by 2009 rules [00:26]
mircea_popescu generally the reason power rangers keep wanting to hide the chain and the validation mechanisms is simply that [00:27]
mircea_popescu their version of bitcoin is not actually valid as per the bitcoin protocol. [00:27]
mircea_popescu barely hangs on by a mix of "grandfathering" and "don't look in this box", much like the usg that spawned them. [00:27]
mircea_popescu in this sense, building atop that shit is an excursion in insanity, which is why ONLY usg-financed "companies" do it (in the sense of pretending to do anything besides hiring more ustards and eating rubber chickens at "conferences") [00:28]
ben_vulpes i do not see the point at all in differentiating between txnen-which-are-relayed and txn-which-are-mined [00:33]
asciilifeform mircea_popescu: i think you are conflating the DER encoding thing with the high/low-S thing [00:36]
asciilifeform they were separate items [00:36]
* changenie (ae3dee4a@gateway/web/freenode/ip.174.61.238.74) has joined #bitcoin-assets [00:36]
asciilifeform and i am looking at prb right now, it generates low-S only, and ditto for relay, but i see nothing that would force it to reject a block CONTAINING a high-S tx [00:37]
asciilifeform what am i missing [00:38]
mircea_popescu you seem to be operating on the delusional notion miners user prb ?! [00:39]
mircea_popescu !up changenie [00:39]
-assbot- You voiced changenie for 30 minutes. [00:39]
* assbot gives voice to changenie [00:39]
mircea_popescu hi there changenie [00:39]
asciilifeform mircea_popescu: not speaking of miners, but of your earlier statement re:, approx, 'mining a high-S-containing block is a perma-fork' [00:40]
asciilifeform trying to figure out how this is so [00:40]
mircea_popescu and you are right, BIP66 was "strict DER". [00:40]
mircea_popescu https://github.com/bitcoin/bips/blob/master/bip-0066.mediawiki << pretty good discussion. [00:41]
asciilifeform i am trying to grasp what, precisely, would happen, if mircea_popescu or anybody were to build a high-S miner [00:41]
assbot bips/bip-0066.mediawiki at master · bitcoin/bips · GitHub ... ( http://bit.ly/201qFup ) [00:41]
mircea_popescu for some reason the whole high/low S thing is part and parcel of this in my head. [00:42]
asciilifeform 'The requirement to have signatures that comply strictly with DER has been enforced as a relay policy by the reference client since v0.8.0, and very few transactions violating it are being added to the chain as of January 2015. ' <<< ahahaha turns out i was right, even per the horse's own mouth [00:42]
asciilifeform you ~can~ miner high-S without permafork [00:42]
asciilifeform *mine [00:42]
asciilifeform but somehow 'everybody' was persuaded not to [00:42]
asciilifeform (because ????????) [00:42]
mircea_popescu i suppose this is something we can experiment with once someone picks up the pool thing ? [00:42]
asciilifeform well certainly not with bare hands. [00:43]
asciilifeform but my earlier hypothesis was that a high (or at least nondiscriminatory)-S pool would specifically have an edge. [00:43]
asciilifeform (because 'market' for them, if you will, is under-served for no good reason) [00:44]
mircea_popescu not really. because it is trivial to malleate txn [00:44]
mircea_popescu see, miner that sees high-S tx can either reject it, or just low-S it. [00:44]
asciilifeform malleate prior to your pool seeing the original ? [00:44]
asciilifeform let'em try their luck [00:44]
mircea_popescu it's happening all the time ? [00:45]
mircea_popescu i currently send both kinds, and the mined blocks include the low-ified S all the time. [00:45]
mircea_popescu no miner rejects high S txn as such. [00:45]
asciilifeform incidentally i still don't fully grasp the point of the whole malleation thing [00:45]
asciilifeform with whom, specifically, does it screw ? [00:46]
mircea_popescu there is no fucking point. what is the point of https://s-media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com/736x/25/8b/5d/258b5d875293b906b5c97c318c92de29.jpg other than "get all these bitches lined up in thin plastic wrapped young titties so we can stroke it better" ? [00:46]
assbot ... ( http://bit.ly/201r3c8 ) [00:46]
mircea_popescu that's how "states" are built, you're supposed to be aped by the awesome power of this imaginary thing that lo! it makes whole rafts of bitches to absurd shit like this [00:47]
mircea_popescu when you can't even get one to spread properly. [00:47]
asciilifeform i must be simple-minded, then [00:48]
asciilifeform because i don't see the mega-point [00:48]
asciilifeform tx malleation brings not one single hooligan a step closer to the pirannha tank. [00:48]
mircea_popescu wut ? [00:48]
mircea_popescu did i just talk through you ? [00:48]
asciilifeform possibly? [00:49]
asciilifeform how is tx malleation supposed to impress anybody with the majesty of usg ? [00:49]
asciilifeform it doesn't ~do~ anything [00:49]
asciilifeform it's got no tits. [00:49]
mircea_popescu but "everyone" does it. and you want to be just like everyone, don't you ? [00:50]
mircea_popescu tits are for older boys, like they had in pre-nazi germany. [00:50]
mircea_popescu for the raft of 3yos the us is infested with, tits yet hold a different meaning than ravishment. [00:50]
* Cristina_ (5027cae4@gateway/web/freenode/ip.80.39.202.228) has joined #bitcoin-assets [00:52]
mircea_popescu incidentally, i would suppose that is "child porn" by today's standards, right ? buncha fourteen year olds in clingwrap tops. [00:53]
mircea_popescu whar is teh compliance documents!11 [00:53]
mircea_popescu asciilifeform to fully formulate the impedance mismatch here, because on reread this isn't satisfactory. suppose you have a chain of blocks, B1...Bn. suppose you also have a chain (different concepts) of txn , T1...Tm. [00:57]
mircea_popescu all miners, whether they be S-indiscriminate or S-selective can mine T1 necessarily. the latter as is ; the former as T1 in 50% of cases and as T1' in the remainder cases, where T1' = C-T1 [00:58]
mircea_popescu should T1' be mined, then T2...TN is now invalid, and will have to be resent. [00:59]
asciilifeform well yes [00:59]
mircea_popescu it's true that this costs S-indiscriminate miners the txn fees of T2-Tn, but [00:59]
asciilifeform but the S-selection does not appear to touch block-validity-tester at all! [00:59]
asciilifeform in any known client [00:59]
mircea_popescu a) the expectation is, as you've seen, that i'll get an accountant out of bed and on my own dime fix the mess power rangers made because hey, why not, it's a decentralized protocol which means some idiots break it and the world fixes it [01:00]
asciilifeform DER-encoding thing? yes. [01:00]
asciilifeform S ? no [01:00]
mircea_popescu however more importantly b) there is NO WAY for neutral-S miners to profit from T2-Tn as-is. [01:00]
mircea_popescu so yet another aspect of the well familiar by now disaster of commons [01:00]
mircea_popescu but i must an' gladly do commend your stubborn insistence because yeah in fact i was conflating two things in mah head. [01:02]

mircea_popescu "oh black people always existed, we just didn't film any back in the 60s." [09:02]
* assbot gives voice to fluffypony [09:07]
fluffypony Billy Dee Williams (who played Lando Calrissian) was in Empire Strikes Back and in Return of the Jedi [09:07]
fluffypony and he's black as night [09:08]
shinohai ;;blocks [09:10]
gribble 393287 [09:10]
mircea_popescu so the retcon forks off episode V rather than episode I ? or wait... actually this franchise starts midway does it ? [09:12]
mircea_popescu i guess that's what i get for commenting on stuff i never bothered to actually see. [09:13]
shinohai I skipped the Jar-Jar awfulness. I have seen first 3 movies and the latest [09:14]
mircea_popescu mmkay so : Star Wars Episode IV: A New Hope being the 1977 & first release of the thing, has no black people in it. does it ? [09:14]
shinohai I don't recall. Don't think so unless it is a background character. [09:15]
fluffypony well [09:15]
mircea_popescu "Star Wars was released theatrically in the United States on May 25, 1977. It earned $461 million in the US and $314 million overseas, totaling $775 million. It surpassed Jaws (1975) to become the highest-grossing film of all time; its gross was later surpassed by that of E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial (1982). When adjusted for inflation as of 2013" << check it out, there was inflation since the 80s ?! [09:15]
fluffypony it kinda did [09:15]
fluffypony David Prowse was black [09:15]
mircea_popescu ah did it ? alrighty then. [09:16]
fluffypony but I doubt many people knew it [09:16]
mircea_popescu why the fuck do these people still bitch about it then ?! [09:16]
fluffypony I mean James Earl Jones, not David Prowse [09:16]
shinohai Ah! [09:16]
fluffypony and in the prequels there was Samuel L Jackson [09:17]
* mircea_popescu has no idea who any of these people are, googles the latter, he looks about as black as wesley snipes wtf. [09:17]
shinohai But alas, James Earl Jones was but a voice, underneath they still made vadar a wrinkly old white guy. [09:17]
mircea_popescu oh [09:17]
mircea_popescu voice actor [09:17]
fluffypony yeah, that's why I said I doubt many people knew that Darth Vader's voice was a black guy [09:17]
mircea_popescu i dun think it would have "count"-ed for the same people. [09:18]
shinohai Samuel L Jackson kills in th the new Hateful Eight movie. [09:18]
fluffypony I guess the running joke is that most of the films only had 1 (visible) black actor/actress [09:18]
mircea_popescu eh, his best work is pulp fiction. [09:18]
fluffypony but they had a bunch of aliens, so it's a dumb argument [09:18]
fluffypony "there weren't enough Gungans in the original trilogy!" [09:18]
fluffypony #GunganLivesMatter [09:19]
shinohai I liked Four Rooms, but that was only co-produced. [09:19]
mircea_popescu fluffypony well moreover it's only relevant in the sense of fan service commentary. "oh, really, it just so happened all your bridge bunnies were 180 and freshly laid off the siegfried follies ? fancy that coincidence into the future!" [09:19]
punkman episode 4 had one black person, then the added a bunch more in 5 and 6 [09:20]
mircea_popescu "oh, you made a movie in 2010 and there's a buncha black dudes in it ? how considerate of you, where were you in 1952!" [09:20]
fluffypony punkman: Lando Calrissian was the only memorable on-screen black character, tho [09:21]
fluffypony but in a movie where a small green hobbit-creature is a major star, I don't know if that counts [09:21]
mircea_popescu he looks spanish [09:21]
fluffypony to a South African most "African Americans" look mixed-race [09:21]
shinohai Moorish [09:22]
punkman fluffypony: much more than Samuel L. Jackson [09:22]
mircea_popescu shinohai yeah, or i guess brazillian-portuguese. [09:22]
shinohai mircea_popescu is right, he would be the perfect space Moor [09:22]

thestringpuller DerpUnion: bitcoin mining is a black hole, as in you'll never get the BTC out you put into miners unless you can do some voodoo. Even if electricity cost was 0, you'd still have trouble paying off the miners themselves unless you have direct access to $foundry [12:26]
mircea_popescu the strange with bitcoin is that mining is ALWAYS a market in which supracapacity exists, for the odd reason that mining is a ~0 demand activity, which is altogether a concept unknown in economy so far. [12:27]
mircea_popescu what happens is that the same nominal amount will be distributed to all producers uniformly by lottery, no matter the volume of production. [12:27]
mircea_popescu that there exists no marginal demand created by production increase nor any demand destroyed by production shortages makes the situation quite peculiar. [12:27]
thestringpuller This is why you get stories of people investing in mining and holding BTC until price escalates then sell portion to get net profit. But bear market has prevented that for the past 1.5-2 years [12:28]
mircea_popescu there IS the implicit fiat short where you finance your mining with [tax deductible] fiat losses, and maintain your profits in bitcoin. [12:29]
mircea_popescu which is the primary driver for the extreme run-up in hashing we've been experiencing the past coupla years. [12:29]

thestringpuller i had a theory the "profitable" miners (ones that got in early before major difficulty increase vis-a-vis jgarzik getting first avalon miner and paying it off in 1 month), will drop the price to push other miners offline. [12:31]
mircea_popescu i don't trust jgarzik's ability to correctly account for a business venture, for one thing. [12:31]
mircea_popescu "old miners" do what you say in cases such as saudi arabia cutting prices to sink obama's hopes of reindustrializing the us, sure. but note that there's a strong "god-given" element to this : the saudis didn't BUILD those oil deposits. [12:32]
mircea_popescu in a sense they're stuck with them. much like a preppy kid that's stuck with his parents house. [12:32]
mircea_popescu the other kids in school'd BETTER think his dad's house is cool, or else he stands to lose a lot. so he has a vested interest in having the sluttier chicks in class over by his pool each weekend, that other kids in better situations don't. [12:33]
thestringpuller this is how gatsby tried to rise to power, but was struck down by "old money". it would seem miners would operate under the same mentality. [12:34]
mircea_popescu you are aware that's a book, written about "how it is to be rich" by someone who was himself poor ? [12:35]
