* assbot removes voice from raedah [00:32]
mircea_popescu he is saying that you OUGHT NOT own capital. [00:32]
mircea_popescu this is a substantially different statement from your "i expect it won't work". [00:32]
asciilifeform he is saying, or so i read, 'if you are a typical small person you are defenseless and will be raped, so have a very small cunt with spikes' [00:32]
mircea_popescu not for one second. [00:32]
asciilifeform then i must be thick. [00:33]
mircea_popescu he is saying what orlov is saying, and what yarvin is saying, and what generally the castrated son of a stupid anglo whore is always fucking saying [00:33]
mircea_popescu and im geting well sick of hearing it. [00:33]
mircea_popescu whether you personally will or will not be able to defend your capital has no bearing on whether you OUGHT to accumulate capital. [00:34]
mircea_popescu zero. nada. zilch. [00:34]
mircea_popescu the pretense to the contrary is what fucking created, and what fucking maintains, the miserable situation under which you belabour. [00:34]
asciilifeform but is the choice between 'accumulate capital' and 'smoke dope' ? or is it about ~what kind~ of capital [00:35]
mircea_popescu or, perhaps more accurately, what feeds the swam in which you wallow. [00:35]
mircea_popescu there is NO KINDS OF CAPITAL!!1 [00:35]
mircea_popescu "is the choice between being a priss or getting laid, or is the choice between what ~kind~ of getting laid ? maybe i'm getting laid with jesus!" [00:35]
asciilifeform gonna tell me that a sawmill is the same as knowing-how-to-remove-appendix ? [00:35]
mircea_popescu yeah, im sure you're alt-getting laid and christian rock rules. [00:35]
mircea_popescu "knowing how to" fill the fucking paperwork and ask for permission. [00:36]
mircea_popescu get the fuck outta here. [00:36]
asciilifeform but actually kreinin is getting one thing catastrophically wrong, it is entirely possible to get dekulakized ~out of one's profession~ [00:36]
asciilifeform e.g., both of my parents were. [00:36]
mircea_popescu doh. [00:37]
mircea_popescu but see... he has the capital of knowing how to... uhhh... oh i know, misrepresent his vices as virtues! [00:37]
mircea_popescu such capitool. [00:37]
asciilifeform so with this dawning on me, i can't defend the rest of the piece, it sorta blows in pieces in the wind. [00:37]

pete_dushenski this peanut butter chocolate cheesecake is a bit disappointing. icing is too sweet and it's not "cheezy" enough. more like an ultra-rich, ultra-dense, slightly creamier cake than you'd otherwise expect. the most impressive thing about this cake was the sheer mass. the box must've been 20 lbs for a 10"er.

BingoBoingo lol, they are also bumping protocol version bit: "Support for the NODE_BLOOM service bit, as described in BIP 111, has been added to the P2P protocol code. [18:08]
BingoBoingo BIP 111 defines a service bit to allow peers to advertise that they support bloom filters (such as used by SPV clients) explicitly. It also bumps the protocol version to allow peers to identify old nodes which allow bloom filtering of the connection despite lacking the new service bit. [18:08]
BingoBoingo In this version, it is only enforced for peers that send protocol versions >=70011 . For the next major version it is planned that this restriction will be removed. It is recommended to update SPV clients to check for the NODE_BLOOM service bit for nodes that report versions newer than 70011." end powerspam [18:08]

mircea_popescu http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=17-01-2016#1374742 << sharing one makes eminently little sense. you can't rent except by the gate. [20:39]
assbot Logged on 17-01-2016 21:42:28; asciilifeform: 10,000 sq. ft. for a dollar/mo. each? sure. 1000 ? go away. etc [20:39]
asciilifeform mod6: was it the the LC_ALL=C thing? [20:39]
asciilifeform mircea_popescu: aha. though it is not unheard-of to subdivide a warehouse [20:40]
mircea_popescu not among unknowns. [20:40]
mod6 asciilifeform: no i don't think so. [20:40]
mircea_popescu heck, i guess in practice every insanity's heard of, including to subdivide a woman unawares. [20:40]
asciilifeform mircea_popescu: i once knew two fellas who unknowingly shared a toothbrush for most of a year. [20:41]
mircea_popescu http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=17-01-2016#1374762 << nah. and http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=17-01-2016#1374764 << this is sensible and a welcome idea, in general. tho i still dunno how much the proposed replacement's worth. [20:41]

mircea_popescu asciilifeform confucius say, better share toothbrush than buttplug. [20:42]
asciilifeform i went over the crud [20:42]
asciilifeform it very much is moar of the same. [20:42]
mircea_popescu so did a few other people. [20:42]
mircea_popescu would you swear to anything ? [20:42]
mod6 here's what it is asciilifeform: http://dpaste.com/3QGYPPK.txt [20:43]
assbot ... ( http://bit.ly/1Ozu8cr ) [20:43]
asciilifeform my tentative conclusion is that the phoundation folk are making things explicit [20:43]
asciilifeform (in re: the corralling of the cattle) [20:43]
mod6 i should also point out this: http://dpaste.com/01R3NFN.txt [20:44]
assbot ... ( http://bit.ly/1OzubVF ) [20:44]
asciilifeform mod6: i have no idea what is happening here [20:44]
asciilifeform but it suggests that your sed is broken [20:44]
asciilifeform awk, rather [20:44]
punkman I think I had that error, just changed around the quoting of the vdiff command [20:45]
mod6 yeah, this seems to be the case on ubuntu & deb (iirc), only works on gentoo for me. you fixed this once iirc. but i've since lost the changes :/ [20:45]

mircea_popescu BingoBoingo "Bitstamp has emailed users stating it has banned access from all IP addresses originating from the Russian Federation access to the Bitcoin exchange." [20:47]
mircea_popescu and what is this "continue reading" thing ? [20:47]
asciilifeform 'Starting with Tor version 0.2.7.1 it is possible, through Tor's control socket API, to create and destroy 'ephemeral' hidden services programmatically. Bitcoin Core has been updated to make use of this. This means that if Tor is running (and proper authorization is available), Bitcoin Core automatically creates a hidden service to listen on, without manual configuration. Bitcoin Core will also use Tor automatically to connect [20:48]
asciilifeform to other .onion nodes if the control socket can be successfully opened. This will positively affect the number of available .onion nodes and their usage. This new feature is enabled by default if Bitcoin Core is listening, and a connection to Tor can be made.' << l0l!! [20:48]
mircea_popescu o.O [20:49]
asciilifeform 'Previously, every wallet transaction stored a Merkle branch to prove its presence in blocks. This wasn't being used for more than an expensive sanity check. Since 0.12, these are no longer stored.' [20:49]
guruvan mod6: that image I made last night isn't working - there's a fork at block 168000 that it's not liking [20:49]
mircea_popescu isn't that the bdb issue ? [20:49]
asciilifeform guruvan: what was this ? [20:50]
guruvan can I just build as per instrux here http://wiki.bitcoin-assets.com/the_real_bitcoin and [20:50]
punkman guruvan: possibly because of openssl version [20:50]
assbot the_real_bitcoin [bitcoin assets wiki] ... ( http://bit.ly/238YcVW ) [20:50]
mircea_popescu gah, is half our documentation unmaintained / out of date by now ? [20:50]
asciilifeform holy shit, year-old instructions ?!!1 [20:50]
mircea_popescu jesus. [20:50]
guruvan asciilifeform: working on a trb docker image - looks like was 168000 p2sh ? [20:50]
mircea_popescu listen, ben_vulpes mod6 you gotta have a process to prevent this situation. no documentation is bad. wrong or obsolete documentation is way way worse. [20:50]
asciilifeform but iirc even therealbitcoin.org doesn't mention 'v' [20:50]
guruvan I'm not using that - I'm building straight from a tarball [20:50]
asciilifeform or the modern v-tronic build [20:51]
guruvan mircea_popescu: docker image Dockerfile helps document buld process -that part of why I do these [20:51]
mircea_popescu lotta people suddenly got interested, caught us with the pants down in a very wrong spot to have pants down. [20:51]

guruvan sorta - I think I have everything in the current mirror set all figured out - haven't tried to build anything outta that yet [20:52]
mircea_popescu aite. [20:52]
asciilifeform #5677 9aa9099 libevent-based http server << let's add mega-dependency crud !1111 [20:52]
guruvan I got V working, synced and all, just not tried to do a build with it yet [20:52]
guruvan more or less tried all the pertinent commands - made sure it seemed set up right [20:53]
mircea_popescu alright. [20:54]
asciilifeform #6650 4fac576 Obfuscate chainstate << wut. [20:54]
guruvan seriously asciilifeform what's up there [20:54]
guruvan I was wondering about this when I saw this in the logs today (on classic?) [20:55]
mircea_popescu asciilifeform> holy shit, year-old instructions ?!!1 << the link he gave references a log line by me from just before xmas. [20:55]
mircea_popescu so a month old. [20:55]
asciilifeform hm [20:55]
asciilifeform i saw a .sh, assumed pre-v [20:55]

asciilifeform #6508 61457c2 Switch to a constant-space Merkle root/branch algorithm. << anybody have the time/energy to look? i don't... [20:57]
guruvan there some more docs on the rotor script? this looks like the mojo I'm looking for for the simple docker "whip up a node for testing" builds [20:57]
asciilifeform #6210 0e4f2a0 build: disable optional use of gmp in internal secp256k1 build << what's it use instead of gmp ?!!?? [20:58]
asciilifeform own crackpot bignum ? [20:58]
asciilifeform #6619 4862708 depends: bump miniupnpc and ccache << apparently upnp is still in the mix [20:58]
guruvan why this is even in the code in the first place is a mystery [20:59]
mircea_popescu standard explanation, "it has some pores dept x needs" [21:00]
mircea_popescu most of the time it's junk anyway, but hey, bureaucracy prevails! [21:01]
guruvan LOL :) some pores compay ABC needs ;) [21:01]
mircea_popescu no, more like SHITFACE or DERPSTORM or whatever the fuck. [21:02]

ben_vulpes 'twas not sane. [21:03]
mircea_popescu asciilifeform before it was mass produced because five barons couldn't possibly etc. [21:03]
ben_vulpes myriad layers of virtualization. [21:03]
asciilifeform well you said 'actual metal', so i wondered about the meaning [21:03]
asciilifeform aha [21:03]
ben_vulpes have built in docker, cloud, etc [21:03]
asciilifeform is this the openbsd-on-old-mac thing ? [21:03]
ben_vulpes with a mouse, on a house [21:03]
ben_vulpes chapter something in the story, yes asciilifeform [21:04]
ben_vulpes should have listened to you, but must piss on each and every fence myself. [21:04]
asciilifeform iirc BingoBoingo once had something of the sort [21:04]
asciilifeform or was it netbsd [21:04]

asciilifeform oddest beast i ever had gentoo on was a hp pa-risc. [21:05]
asciilifeform wasn't 'officially support', no. [21:06]
ben_vulpes "why gentoo?" asked $bzprtner, "is that the best linux thing around for working on mega-c projects?" "no, it's simply the least-worst and has a snowflake's chance of working" [21:06]
ben_vulpes 2 things drove this toolchain rebuild: exwm and tri-on-the-metal. [21:06]

guruvan lol - gentoo "a snowflake's chance of working" << probably not much more, but at least you know why it's broken [21:13]
guruvan that's on today's agenda is to see why my glibc fails out of the latest portage :P [21:15]
ben_vulpes guruvan: what better route forward then? ubuntu 14.04? [21:20]
guruvan poh - no - I'm going forward with all my own gentoos :) zomg ubuntu 14.04 [21:20]
mircea_popescu ah finally found that fucking article! [21:21]
guruvan I do use some in some docker images for various purposes, but my heaviest use images are all gentoo based [21:21]
mircea_popescu "Marti McCuller, a legally blind Web site developer, was frustrated by her difficulty in navigating through search engines. �My text‑to‑speech software let me read the various search sites,� she said, �but they often put so many links on a page it became hard to use.� [21:21]
mircea_popescu That is because the blind, even with text‑reading software, cannot glance at a page. There is no way for them to get a quick visual overview of a site�s contents and make mental notes about where it would be worthwhile clicking and exploring later. Rather, the blind must laboriously click from line to line, determining by a process of elimination where they want to go. [21:21]
mircea_popescu As a solution, Ms. McCuller created her own search engine, an amalgam of other search sites that does not force the user to move slowly around the site and wade through advertisements to find the right place to enter a query. Search words are entered at the top of the page, and appropriate links are displayed above all other material as well. Users do not need to tab through extraneous material." [21:21]
mircea_popescu https://archive.is/dwSkS#selection-241.0-259.119 << anyone remember how infoseek / altavista etc looked back in the day ? [21:21]

guruvan heh I definitely remember altavista [21:23]
mircea_popescu the only practical way to know google didn't fucking invent the un-shat-upon screen is to personally know the devs that had done it before. i suspect this is true of most "genius ideas". [21:24]
guruvan once those ideas have sufficient network effect yet [21:24]
guruvan yes [21:24]
punkman did chetty read c++ via text-to-speech? [21:25]
mircea_popescu depends who wrote it / on what system, etc. [21:25]
