mircea_popescu aaand archive.is changed ip. for shame. anyone willing to run a b-a fork of the thing ? [00:43]
mircea_popescu https://www.whatsmydns.net/#A/archive.is << half the world sees it as 46.17.100.191, the rest sees it as 37.97.156.202 [00:44]
assbot Global DNS Propagation Checker - What's My DNS? ... ( http://bit.ly/1OtKMbT ) [00:44]
mircea_popescu neither of which happen to match the 185.92.220.64 it was answering from merely five minutes ago. [00:45]
BingoBoingo Mebbe they just really are out to get you? [00:47]
mircea_popescu possibru. what do you see ? [00:47]
phf i have some lisp code to do what archive.is does from back when i was reading everything from kindle, but it'll take a few weeks for me to get it into a running service state.. [00:47]
danielpbarron i also noticed their ip was weird after i pasted your /etc/hosts list into my own and it stopped working the other day [00:47]
mircea_popescu phf i am pretty sure the code's published [00:47]
phf oh then it's for somebody else to fuck around with [00:48]
mircea_popescu danielpbarron was it earlier ? i actually just loaded a page, worked fine, minutes later bupkiss [00:48]
BingoBoingo 46.17.100.191 [00:49]
danielpbarron the main page would load, but when i tried to archive something that's where it would go to a new ip [00:49]
mircea_popescu us & china version [00:49]
phf person: Shevchenko Andrey address: Tussen de Bogen 6, 1013 JB Amsterdam, The Netherlands , hehe just the kind of person to run a service like that.. [00:49]

assbot ... ( http://bit.ly/1S0fVKQ ) [00:50]
mircea_popescu phf oh, you know him ? [00:50]
phf no, i know a few russian living in netherlands, and they all fall under kind of a similar stereotype [00:52]
mircea_popescu ah [00:52]
mircea_popescu in other news, either the code vanished or i;m just delusional, but can't seem to locate it [00:53]
* assbot removes voice from changenie [00:53]
mircea_popescu anyway, this would be very good synnergy with deedbot, because not only can pages be saved, but sha512sums of the pages can be deeded. [00:54]
* hanbot has quit (Quit: Leaving) [00:54]
mircea_popescu now i gotta fish out the guy's email and perhaps see if he'd be willing to share ? [00:55]
phf i think ben_vulpes has been working on his own take on the service? i remember there was some noise last time question came up. anyone attempting will fast realize that it's a pita. [00:55]
mircea_popescu "The archive runs Apache Hadoop and Apache Accumulo. All data is stored on HDFS" what's the esteemed peerage think ? should be rewritten ? worth reusing ? [00:56]
mircea_popescu it is undeniably a pita. [00:56]
mircea_popescu however a lot of leeway is available re shitty sites. i honestly couldn't care less what "functionality" is lost through js being discarded out of hand, for instance. [00:56]
phf above is entirely java stack, and the quoted parts only talk about storage aspect. (accumulo is layer on top of hadoop's hdfs) [00:58]
mircea_popescu aha. [00:58]

mircea_popescu phf it ~would~ be a pretty decent showcase of lisp, i'll readily grant that. [01:00]
mircea_popescu also comes with built-in revenue model, "be in the L or else pay this much dust". [01:01]
phf we can add archive/logs/patches to a single lisp project, call it assetbook and we won't need any other internet anymore [01:01]
mircea_popescu will require that ancient "assbot bitcoin wallets" thing be dusted off, but hey, unavoidable anyway [01:01]
mircea_popescu strategically i'd rather have it a set of interoperating parts than a single monster monolith. [01:02]

asciilifeform mircea_popescu: wasn't archive.is the fella who hosted the original unlucky dulap ? [01:20]
mircea_popescu nope. [01:20]
asciilifeform then why was my hostname something.archive.is . [01:20]
mircea_popescu well i suppose technically all russians are the same dude, but even so. [01:20]
mircea_popescu iirc we used the same dc in odessa. [01:20]
BingoBoingo http://www.humansofstraya.com/tagged/cockblock [01:21]
asciilifeform ah. [01:21]
assbot Humans of Straya ... ( http://bit.ly/1VDktpG ) [01:21]
mircea_popescu and the server wasn't new, so prolly got his warm bed or something. [01:21]
asciilifeform that would explain. [01:21]
asciilifeform BingoBoingo: i read 4 words of this and barfed. [01:21]
asciilifeform can haz the gangrene back plox. [01:21]
mircea_popescu i think BingoBoingo might be bullying us. [01:22]
BingoBoingo Nah, I'm bullying the FBI log readers [01:22]
mircea_popescu but the thing IS fascinating. noticed it on okcupid back in the day, a small but present chunk of derps actually used group photos consisting of HOTTER WOMEN [01:22]
mircea_popescu i mean, leaving aside the inanity of posing with one's mother, this may be the most insane thing ever. [01:23]
mod6 jurov: nice work! [01:23]
mod6 i'll test that out tomorrow when i get a sec. [01:24]
mircea_popescu (incidentally, none of those 4 derps is fuckable. the tall blonde has the typical ustard chin, miserable fucking feature. the jew is short and jewish. the fat one obv and the midwestern "undiscovered beauty" is benning-level psychotic) [01:24]
asciilifeform ftr, they all look exactly the same to me. [01:25]
mircea_popescu fucking disjointed smile with defocused eyes omfg medicate her. [01:25]
asciilifeform like the 2 camels earlier. [01:25]
mircea_popescu camels were seen FROM BEHIND [01:25]
asciilifeform they have ~literally~ the same face. [01:25]
mircea_popescu omfg alf sees the world like a bee-dog : in black and white and all pixelated. [01:25]
phf past first paragraph is bogus, fat girls don't act like that in clubs, that's just an overactive imagination. what they actually do is pick up leftovers, or particularly drunk guys who were attracted by the group. it's literally a scavenger strategy, and being obnoxious will ensure that the girl is never again invited with her hotter friends. (they want to get fucked too, jeez) [01:25]
BingoBoingo lol [01:25]
asciilifeform kinda. [01:25]
assbot [MPEX] [S.MPOE] 44950 @ 0.00056375 = 25.3406 BTC [-] [01:26]
mircea_popescu phf actually that scavenger strategy is the larger part of why humans are still around. [01:27]
mircea_popescu women pick up the drunks and men pick up what the lions left off, whenever they could chase the hyenas away. [01:27]
mircea_popescu we're a scavenger species. [01:27]
mod6 qq: Can something be developed to help these guys with the corrupted databases when they get a hard-reboot?perhaps something similar to cutblock that will say lopp off the last blk####.dat file or something? is this worth looking into? [01:27]
mircea_popescu mod6 it is, but big chunk and scheduled for after this scheme thing is better digested. [01:28]
mircea_popescu at least in my fuzzmind. [01:28]
asciilifeform 'after the burial parties leave, and the baffled crows have fled, the wise hyenas come out at eve, to take account of our dead' (tm) (r) (kipling) [01:28]
phf i'm not at all hating, it's more of a "a plague on both your houses" reaction [01:28]
mod6 mircea_popescu: awesome. yeah, i agree we should do something there. that's super annoying that it happened to these guys. [01:28]
asciilifeform mod6: the only possible solution is a journalling fs. [01:28]
asciilifeform bitcoinfs. [01:28]
mircea_popescu that's not necessarily a solution. [01:29]
asciilifeform (ideally, running on top of a raid card with battery packs, like i have here) [01:29]
mircea_popescu for one thing, linux managed to implement journaling in such a way it barely works [01:29]
mod6 ok, so that's a possible whole replacement piece, sure. was just thinking is it worth possibly making a temporary tool for this until bitcoinfs? or just wait and do bitcoinfs. [01:29]
mod6 food for thought perhaps. [01:29]
mircea_popescu mod6 it's definitely possible ; ideally it'd come after a proper data model for the data. [01:29]
asciilifeform mod6: would have to replace bdb. [01:30]
mircea_popescu otherwise you'll end up with "need driven" data modelling, and god help you. [01:30]
mod6 aha. ok. [01:30]
mircea_popescu asciilifeform bdb should be taken out ftr. [01:30]
mircea_popescu iirc there's consensus on that matter. [01:30]
asciilifeform there is no possible dispute that it must die. [01:30]
asciilifeform only question is in ~what order~ the deps must go [01:31]
mod6 i'll have to go back and re-read some of our previous threads on the topics. [01:31]

mircea_popescu heh. what a tryptich [01:31]
mod6 i learn so many good words here. [01:32]

mod6 phf, asciilifeform: so you know whats weird? [01:35]
mod6 so in "foo.scm" i have defined a "square" procedure, but in (oblist), among everything else, its listed as: (square char-ci>=? cddddr expt) [01:35]
mod6 lol, no idea how that correlates yet, but that is indeed the actual stored defintion no? [01:36]
phf mod6: no, i think it's a side effect of the way oblist is constructed [01:36]
* changenie has quit (Ping timeout: 252 seconds) [01:36]
mod6 oh [01:36]
phf probably some kind of tree structure for fast lookup [01:36]
mod6 alright. i was thinking with using scheme (like I was saying lastnight), we'll have to build some pretty extensive libs of procs of our own. which is probably better anyway... but, it'd be cool if this thing would tell you what you've already defined. [01:37]
mod6 or do we need to write a proc for that too? [01:37]
asciilifeform the thing is quite bare bones, and will need heavy work. [01:37]
asciilifeform and i picked this kind of scheme deliberately. [01:37]
asciilifeform would you rather read 50,000 lines of mit crapolade ? [01:38]
phf mod6: i have an OP for symbol-value, on top of which you can build a pretty decent "apropos" [01:38]
mod6 im actually glad for that. and personally, I don't even want to look at any other lisp really because other lisps seem to have a bunch more built-in functions that we'll basically not use. [01:38]
asciilifeform aha. [01:38]
mod6 phf: ah neat [01:38]
asciilifeform the word for what we want is - orthogonality. [01:38]
mircea_popescu ahh this insurection is coming along nicely. [01:38]
* mircea_popescu predicts that by the time he's dead, b-a will be bigger than fucking france. [01:39]
asciilifeform eh to be fair france is pretty small now and getting smaller [01:39]
mircea_popescu hey, i'm a modest man. [01:39]
asciilifeform will be pocket-sized soon [01:39]
mircea_popescu also, what do i care of the living. will go to the great prison in the sky, all the people there'll be impressed enough. "bigger than france ?! pasol nahui!" [01:40]
asciilifeform l0l [01:40]
mircea_popescu hehe [01:40]
asciilifeform put in latin letters it reads almost... aztec?! [01:41]
mircea_popescu aha [01:41]
asciilifeform the jaguar altar pyramid of pasol nahui. [01:41]
mircea_popescu pretty good. [01:41]

assbot Humans of Straya ... ( http://bit.ly/1VDmFxd ) [01:44]
mod6 She asked me if "snarffed" was a technical term, now I can point at this: [01:45]
mod6 Snarf: ``To grab, especially a large document or file for the purpose of using it either with or without the owner's permission.'' Snarf down: ``To snarf, sometimes with the connotation of absorbing, processing, or understanding.'' (These definitions were snarfed from Steele et al. 1983. See also Raymond 1993.) [01:45]
mod6 win [01:45]
asciilifeform one day i would like to learn how esr stole 'hacker's dictionary' [01:46]
mircea_popescu get a copy, put it online. [01:46]
mircea_popescu what else ? [01:46]
asciilifeform but i suspect that the story is not meaningfully different from how drepper stole libc [01:46]
mircea_popescu quite. [01:46]
asciilifeform mircea_popescu: mno, he became 'official' curator, and added a multitude of crackpot entries from own head [01:47]
BingoBoingo ESR stole it by putting it on just just in time for Google to be birthed [01:47]
mircea_popescu "official" [01:47]
asciilifeform BingoBoingo: he published it in dead tree [01:47]
mircea_popescu getouttahere. [01:47]
asciilifeform i have this edition here, even. [01:47]
mircea_popescu so ? [01:47]
mircea_popescu this incidentally is how that dude stole lisp [01:47]
mircea_popescu what's his face. [01:47]
asciilifeform so not much. [01:47]
mircea_popescu "published the book first" [01:47]
mod6 I think they used to teach this SICP directly as the first programming class at UofM - used it as a weed-out course. [01:47]
mod6 friend of mine only ever talked about "cons-boxes" for about 2 months. [01:48]
mircea_popescu lol [01:48]
asciilifeform l0l! did they also talk for months about magnetic field lines after taking intro physics / [01:49]
asciilifeform ? [01:49]
asciilifeform would make as much sense. [01:49]

asciilifeform (picture a public www that spends coin when you load it!) [10:02]
mircea_popescu how would replacement "include deedbot" ? [10:04]
asciilifeform this hypothetical replacement may be one of those thngs, like the tmsr warez server, that must live behind 'g' or the like. [10:05]

mircea_popescu all sorts of "problems" are really non-problems once tmsr principles are applied. [10:09]
asciilifeform quite! [10:09]
mircea_popescu to think imbecile anglos spent 50 years in "computing" huddling walls and trying to be all flower-power. [10:10]
mircea_popescu bitcoin should have been implemented as a solution to pdp timesharing problems. [10:10]
asciilifeform perhaps unrelatedly, yesterday i saw such egregious notational abuse (at big maths conference) that i felt my mircea_popescu fangs emerging, and wolf ears [10:10]
mircea_popescu lol [10:11]
asciilifeform suddenly it all made sense [10:11]
mircea_popescu i'm like lead. every fancy radioactive compound eventually decays into me. [10:11]
asciilifeform i dreamed of confining the perpetrators somehow and depriving'em of all squigglies and arrows [10:12]
asciilifeform they really did use notation to mask the often nonexisting point of the message. [10:13]
mircea_popescu allthetime.gif [10:13]
asciilifeform but to me this is an argument for taking tools away from derps [10:14]
asciilifeform rather than sending ~all~ to the stone age. [10:15]
asciilifeform hence why i bring it up now. [10:15]
mircea_popescu first off - separate what is tool and what is caduceus. [10:15]
mircea_popescu THEN, take tools away from derps and caducei away from everyone. [10:16]
asciilifeform yes! [10:16]
mircea_popescu and absent a better idea, my concept that you can't possibily have more than 255-27-10 actual tools seems quite meritous. [10:17]
mircea_popescu just how fucking many tools are there. [10:17]
asciilifeform again, where do i find matrix bracket in the 255 [10:17]
mircea_popescu map it whatever way you will. [10:17]
mircea_popescu all i care about is that there's a specified maximum DEFINITIVE count of symbols, [10:18]
asciilifeform or subscript/superscript [10:18]
mircea_popescu i'd prefer it be a word, but can live with dword. i CAN NOT live with "extensible symbol space". [10:18]
mircea_popescu and i don't think you're that smart, either. [10:18]
asciilifeform the problem with the derps is NOT that they make up new symbols. [10:18]
mircea_popescu yesitis. [10:18]
asciilifeform well sometimes [10:19]
mircea_popescu this is the DEFINITION of derpage. to quote from relevant article : [10:19]

mircea_popescu original topic is romanian "grammar scholars" who aren't fit to shine boots, and completely ignore anything whatsoever in the discipline in favour of doing some inanity. [10:20]
asciilifeform incidentally the 'pomos' manage this with strictly latin alphabet ! [10:20]
mircea_popescu but the point stands : derpage is when you come up with new symbols or "new" readings (ie, wrong readings) of pre-existing symbols. [10:20]
mircea_popescu that is what it is. [10:20]
mircea_popescu and fucking note that medicine used WORDS to denote its array of datapoints. not fucking hieroglyphics. [10:20]
asciilifeform they mostly do the latter. [10:21]
asciilifeform new readings. [10:21]
mircea_popescu sure. [10:21]
mircea_popescu necessarily, it's cheaper. [10:21]
mircea_popescu but you're right, pomos do use the medical style (in no small part due to the original idiots', lacan et all, vague fascination with that particular citadel forbidden to them by their own ineptitude - [10:22]
asciilifeform but my point is, they don't necessarily need to take a shit on graphical symbols, when they lack these, they shit on words. [10:22]
asciilifeform it is the shit-spreaders that is the problem. not he victim symbols. [10:22]
mircea_popescu their equivalents in a previous century were using the "magic stones" to read "reformed egyptian". and there is EXACTLY no difference between john smith the mormon and lacan the postmodernist. they're EXACTLY the same "ideal american" [10:22]

asciilifeform aha. [10:23]
asciilifeform lulzily very few were americans [10:23]
mircea_popescu nevertheless. i need unextensible symbol set for very good reason : you can't have static compilation without it. [10:23]
mircea_popescu you understand ? all european literacy is based on the concept of fixed forever symbols, so printing press may exist. [10:23]
asciilifeform mostly foreign folk faithfully emulating american custom [10:23]
asciilifeform like preet. [10:24]
mircea_popescu asciilifeform no, THEY were the americans. everyone else's just scum the wind blew in./ [10:24]

trinque I can see the counterpoint. [17:06]
trinque if you connected to him, he's in your wot [17:06]
asciilifeform mno. [17:06]
trinque who he connects to is his problem [17:06]
trinque maybe you connect to trinque's trans-netherworld sewer system that talks to both sides [17:07]
asciilifeform trinque: however you try to dance around the problem, must come to terms with the fact that ~some~ trb nodes must talk to the heathens ~some~ of the time, or NO BLOCKS [17:08]
mircea_popescu asciilifeform the romanian word to denote the relationship between two men fucking the same woman is "sogor" [17:08]
mircea_popescu you know ? [17:08]
asciilifeform mircea_popescu: we have 'milk brothers' [17:08]
mircea_popescu point being, this is the only relation people are usually unaware of. [17:08]
asciilifeform (originally 2 ~sucking~ same woman.) [17:08]
mircea_popescu so lots of party jokes, "hey man, spot your milk brothers ?" [17:09]
asciilifeform not the only relation. i once knew two dudes who discovered that they were sharing a toothbrush for most of a year. [17:09]
asciilifeform (they lived in a uni dorm) [17:09]
mircea_popescu so there is no "the network". just people you don't know your friends are fucking. [17:10]
asciilifeform but it is a mass in the sense of outer space. [17:10]
mircea_popescu only afayk [17:10]
asciilifeform and in the sense that it largely consists of prb users. [17:10]
asciilifeform (as far as i can tell) [17:10]
mircea_popescu notrly. [17:10]
mircea_popescu this is like saying "all americans are poor, everyone i see in grand central station is wearing shitty cloth shoes and a cheap tshirt" [17:11]
asciilifeform it is not especially hard to obtain evidence that other kinds exist [17:12]
asciilifeform but where is this for nodez ? [17:12]
mircea_popescu nodes are a peculiar case. [17:12]
mircea_popescu "all american women are blonde because that's what i see on tv anchors" [17:12]
asciilifeform so far the only 'alt-trb' for which i have any evidence whatsoever of its existence is mircea_popescu's thing [17:14]
asciilifeform this does not prove absence, no [17:15]
mircea_popescu no, actually you know for a fact 95% of miners were not running prb back last year, because of the fork thing. [17:15]
mircea_popescu wilful ignoring evidence is problematic you know. [17:15]
asciilifeform they were not running ~latest prb~ aha [17:15]
mircea_popescu mno. [17:15]
asciilifeform for all i know they were running prb with ~one line~ patched. [17:15]
mircea_popescu for all you know engineering assumptions aren't to be made this way. [17:15]
asciilifeform all i can say is that i have nfi. but i have no evidence that anyone other than mircea_popescu and trb folks did any serious re-engineering re: the client. [17:16]
asciilifeform (diddling a version number is not reengineering, nor the der encoding thing) [17:16]
mircea_popescu perhaps. but this really wasn't the thesis. you do know that ~nobody is running prb, and this has been in ample evidence historically throughout. [17:16]
asciilifeform as far as i can tell, they are running very lightly-modified old prb. [17:17]
mircea_popescu if you're particularly inclined to act as a propaganda agent for prb, you may make that wholly unsubstantiated, ridiculous claim. [17:17]
mircea_popescu i guess it's your priviledge to do so. [17:17]
asciilifeform (am i terminologically addled, or do i misunderstand what is prb) [17:17]
mircea_popescu hey, we also "cant prove" putin fucks obama in the ass. [17:18]
asciilifeform is 0.5.3 prb ? [17:18]
asciilifeform when does prb begin ? [17:18]
mircea_popescu i dunno that the question was ever settled, or seriously considered. but it'd be expected prb begins with the famous "you are like power rtangers" nonsense, during the original hearn-induced fork. [17:19]
asciilifeform then i take it back, and mircea_popescu has it [17:19]
asciilifeform no miner, afaik, used prb. [17:19]
asciilifeform (i've been using the term to refer to all heathen bitcoin clients, at least those descended from s's original) [17:20]
mircea_popescu kinda what i've been saying. it makes little sense to call say, original bitcoin as per satoshi release prb. [17:20]
mircea_popescu also makes little sense to use the term re bitcoinj, whatever its shortcomings. [17:21]
asciilifeform items such as keeping bastard blocks/tx around don't count as 'rangery' ? [17:21]
mircea_popescu well no, not all error/failure/stupidity is THIS PARTICULAR one. [17:21]
asciilifeform not automatically, aha [17:21]
asciilifeform but it always seemed to me like many of the prb idiocies really ~were~ in keeping with satoshi's idiocy. [17:22]
asciilifeform the continuing support for winblows, for example. [17:22]
mircea_popescu i dunno, man. if a guy makes a shitty camp during indian assault, it's one thing. [17:22]
mircea_popescu if folks in the settled territory keep on living there, not even put up a fucking log barn ? [17:22]
mircea_popescu another thing. [17:22]
mircea_popescu can't call both "fucking gypos". [17:22]
asciilifeform i can see it. [17:23]
mircea_popescu the lone ranger gets a lot of excuses later fellows do not. [17:24]

mircea_popescu phf let's start simple tho. you used the symbol, "network at large". define it. [17:55]
phf well, it's a technical capability, like roads or email. bitcoin is hosted on a subtrate of tcpip, question is can a b-a node accept packets that come from outside the wot and on what terms. [17:58]

assbot Please stop using DNS already, and other considerations on Trilema - A blog by Mircea Popescu. ... ( http://bit.ly/1RoapzD ) [17:59]
mircea_popescu phf is your definition of "network at large" as "all those ips that are not connected to a node connected to someone in l2" ? [17:59]
mircea_popescu or what, 2 degrees of separation ? 4 ? [17:59]
phf all those ips that are not l1 or l2 [18:00]
mircea_popescu why is this partition meaningful ? [18:00]
phf l1 or l2 runs trb, where behavior can be improved. better sync mechanisms, bandwidth/cpu conservative network activity, etc. anyone in the wot can also be punished for abuse, i.e. if asciilifeform starts sending me gigs of bogus transactions, and it's not a test and he can't be reasoned with, etc. [18:03]
mircea_popescu in other, unrelated lulz : derpy consturctor advertises apts in new building. so i have them called, mostly because i know it'll deliver gold. it does. 1 room apts, 470k pesos (~30k usd) ; 2 room apts, 2.1mn pesos (~150k usd). NO TITLE. [18:04]
mircea_popescu ie, you become an unpriviledged creditor of theirs, and that's that. if they go bankrupt in a decade, you lose the house. [18:05]
mircea_popescu this, incidentally, happens here. ALL THE TIME. [18:05]
phf a gossip solution is to hermetically seal the network, but some nodes presumably still need to talk to elsewhere, i.e. not l1 or l2, those are the ones that still have to deal with spam transactions [18:05]
mircea_popescu phf the separation between "trb nodes" and "the rest of the network" comes of the same sort of usg-enabling fiction where somehow obama owns the land and i live on it by his permision. [18:05]
mircea_popescu i will not empower this. NOBODY, including his top general and his own daughter, is his. i own, unknown, perhaps, and or all of these. [18:06]
mircea_popescu for all you know, i peer with a "network at large" node, making it thus trb-node-one-removed. [18:06]
mircea_popescu this cloud will never be clarified, or separated. the space where usg can reliably live (or, for that matter, chinag, russiag, dpkg, anyone-g) is, more or less, zero. [18:06]
mircea_popescu and gossipd is specifically not a solution to hermetically seal the network. [18:07]
mircea_popescu it is a solution to make that epsilon unknowable to any degree of certainty, by anyone. [18:07]
mircea_popescu on which topic, the earlier discussion with asciilifeform re miners is quite apropos. [18:07]
mircea_popescu and this is not merely a discussion of nodes in terms of internet ips. this is a discussion of everything. usg can not currently know which of its agents is closer to me than to washington. closer to their wife than to washington. closer to their purse, a la force, than to washington. [18:09]
mircea_popescu this situation will never reduce, but only amplify, for it spells victory. [18:09]
phf well a gossip connection is already a secret handshake, even if it's not wot rated, a concept of trust can be applied to it, even if negatively. it's a backchannel for b-a node communication [18:11]
mircea_popescu ok. [18:11]
mircea_popescu but once this is done, the "network outside of gossipd" becomes a mere fiction. [18:12]
mircea_popescu you can't say this is the case for any one node in particular. [18:12]
phf will b-a node, once gossip enabled make connections that are not routed over gossip? [18:14]
mircea_popescu why not ? [18:14]
mircea_popescu bridged, or even unbridged. [18:14]
mircea_popescu the whole point of gossipd, as i was trying to explain it to that torhead dude, is that you can't know. [18:14]
phf oh the outside packets are traveling over gossip too, by means of gossip relays [18:16]
* phf hits self on head [18:16]
mircea_popescu and as a more general point : we aren't sealing ourselves off in an ideal world (see the "island of Bitcoin" / "let's get a geographical unit started" threads throughout log history). we are simply constructing indefeatable corruption. [18:16]
phf i always thought of it as more of a backchannel, i.e. there's the dead drops with their own rules of engagement and then there's also the mail you get in post. [18:18]

asciilifeform mircea_popescu: seems like it is what i said earlier [20:26]
asciilifeform title does not extend up. [20:26]
mircea_popescu aha [20:26]
asciilifeform (i know of no country where it does) [20:26]
mircea_popescu but it took like 50 years'; wrangling to sort out [20:26]
mircea_popescu in the us peculiarly. [20:26]
asciilifeform and much, much earlier, they invented the idiocy of 'mineral rights' [20:26]
asciilifeform which was precedent enough. [20:26]
mircea_popescu why is this idiocy ? [20:26]
mircea_popescu you know anything of the history of the industrialization of the west ? [20:27]
mircea_popescu over the dead bodies of ranchers [20:27]
asciilifeform sure. [20:27]
asciilifeform but i will say, if mircea_popescu laughs at the condo title owner, who doesn't have right to demolish the walls or drill through the floor, how is this situation any different from the rancher who does not own the oil ? [20:27]
mircea_popescu nothing keeps you from buying WITH the rights. [20:28]
asciilifeform the condo corp.'s claim to prevent my drilling of the walls at least makes some kind of physical sense [20:28]
mircea_popescu just because two items are separated to ease commerce does you no harm. buy them togetrher. [20:28]
asciilifeform mircea_popescu: they are typically not available. [20:29]
mircea_popescu yes, but i can't acquire the title to that to heal my defect. [20:29]
mircea_popescu ofcourse they are. [20:29]
asciilifeform not in the typical american residential sector. [20:29]
asciilifeform no 'suburb' will permit drilling. [20:29]
mircea_popescu and i would similarly not object to land offered in fee simple if the immunity were separately available to reconstruct alodial title [20:29]
asciilifeform this is a 'distinction without difference' [20:29]
asciilifeform it is 'available' like toilet paper was in '92 su. [20:30]
mircea_popescu hey, don't blame the hammer because idiots stick it up their ass. we already discussed the "inane collective rulesets" thing above. [20:30]
mircea_popescu it does not color this discussion. [20:30]
asciilifeform yes, if you see it in the shop, and grab it first, it costs 0.10 rub. [20:30]
asciilifeform so in what sense is the reconstruction available. [20:30]
mircea_popescu in the legal sense. [20:31]
asciilifeform the mineral rights are with the city, or the original developer of the street, who won't part with them even for maxint. [20:31]
asciilifeform similarly to how the allodial title is with usg, who won't let it go. [20:31]
asciilifeform we have many fictions like this in usa. [20:33]
asciilifeform for instance, for many years, possession of marijuana etc. was a ... tax offense. [20:33]
asciilifeform usg theoretically demanded a tax stamp. [20:33]
asciilifeform that it would not actually sell to anyone, for any price. [20:33]
asciilifeform this was practiced until a proper ban was passed (iirc 1950s) and the trick deemed no longer necessary. [20:34]
