davout: so re bitbet what kakobrekla points out: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=15-04-2016#1444031 [04:48]
davout: mircea_popescu: ^ [04:48]
davout: i disagree with the conclusions [04:49]
davout: anyway, as soon as i receive the additional cash i'll craft the unsigned transaction and publish it for public review [04:50]
davout: re x.eur -> http://dpaste.com/0080X96.txt [04:50]
shinohai: http://www.thelocal.fr/20160414/us-france-for-numerous-human-rights-issues <<< project much USA? [07:52]
mircea_popescu: davout you seriously intend to make one single tx ? [08:40]
mircea_popescu: davout i have no idea as to what kakobrekla is ranting/raving about nor any interest. [08:43]
mircea_popescu: there is this theory that his brain at some point worked, years ago. i subscribe to it. sadly he has been silent for years his newfound interest in things and verbal flurries on topics may be interesting, but principally to whatever paid medical professional. i'm neither paid nor a doctor, and in any case i am of the firm conviction that he is non compos mentis, and unable to evaluate any statement. [08:47]
mircea_popescu: shinohai it's part of the us' incredibly lulzy "we may be the dumbest kid in school but this other kid picked his nose" attempt to use the immigration wave their warcrimes throughout the middle east caused. [08:52]
mircea_popescu: because yeah, they totally don't need france's vote once mexico invades. [08:53]
jurov: mircea_popescu: pls to mpex [08:57]
mircea_popescu: kk. [08:57]
davout: one of the cool things about this chan is that i get to learn a bit of latin every day! [09:08]
mircea_popescu: lol [09:08]
davout: pons asinorum, non compos mentis, today's lessons [09:09]
mircea_popescu: nb. [09:09]
mircea_popescu: it really burns reddit / the average curve-thrown ustard, also. [09:10]
mircea_popescu: OMAIGERD HOW DARE THE KULAKS USE LATIN [09:10]
mircea_popescu: DONT THEY KNOW WERE DUMB ??? [09:10]
davout: latin is racist, obv. [09:10]
mircea_popescu: NEXT THEY'RE GOING TO CLAIM THINGS DON'T START WITH THE BEST GREATEST EMPIRE OF EVER! [09:10]
adlai: mircea_popescu: SORRY TO HEAR YOU DIDN'T ENJOY THE MOVIE oopslock is infecshus i guess. [09:16]
mircea_popescu: no but seriously... peter hammond derp leaves phone behind to be a hero, has not sufficient familiarity with how the phones work to put it in quiet mode ? [09:24]
mircea_popescu: you know there's advertisements all over buenos aires for "classes de smartphone". they depict on cheap paper a lock and an ancient brick phone halfmerged. [09:25]
mircea_popescu: maybe peter hammond would like to participate ? [09:25]
mircea_popescu: and while we're on it, where the everloving fuck did they find those incredibly pliable, ready and trained set of people of walmart ? i bet you that on a million dollar budget you can't get together actual streetwalkers in new york that strip when they hear "i'ma need you to strip". [09:26]
mircea_popescu: no stained panties ? nobody had a little girly accident ? nothing ? just, military level americans ? where the fuck. [09:26]
adlai: my favorite scene was the one with the jewish asthmatic [09:29]
mircea_popescu: i only made it to about there. buncha idiots with assault rifles running "the most brilliant coup in history". apparently thye missed the "adequacy of weapon to task 101" class at sane people academy. took the hollywood altreality class instead. [09:30]
mircea_popescu: i'd be shitting my pants if i had to do crowd control in unknown crowd with a fucking assault rifle omfg. [09:30]
mircea_popescu: what if someone has a knife ? there goes my throat ? [09:30]
adlai: forgive my brashness, but did you watch it through to the end or quite partway? [09:30]
mircea_popescu: i fucking wonder why riot police gets billyclubs. [09:31]
mircea_popescu: adlai possibly 5 minutes past the hammond scene. [09:31]
adlai: it sounds like you figured out the twist too early, and lost interest in the rest [09:31]
mircea_popescu: what do you mean "figured out" [09:31]
adlai: ah well, i'll have to search for a better movie to recommend next [09:31]
mircea_popescu: anyway, that hammond thing is a nec plus ultram (< davout ) in derpage. EVEN AT THE TIME HIS LIFE WAS ON THE LINE, the shmuck did yet still not know his phone is not on quiet. this person has no children in the house, never had a girfriend he was two timing, grew up without parents, etc. [09:32]
mircea_popescu: he comes from a fucking vat. method acting ftr! [09:33]
* adlai would rather come from a vat that into a tube! [09:35]
mircea_popescu: lol k [09:35]
mircea_popescu: [the subtext here being that who the fuck tells his fucking name omaifuckinggerd. what if he were josh wilderbaum, just for that once ?] [09:37]
adlai: so mircea_popescu, your commandment will be fulfilled, but i doubt i'll title my blog exactly as you wished. (sosumi) [09:39]
* adlai is reporting live from the playroom [09:39]
mircea_popescu: does it have an url or are you too special for uniformity of resource locators ? [09:40]
mircea_popescu: and wait, i wished a specific title ? i r old and forget. [09:40]
adlai: human-telepathy-transfer-protocol://www.ickylove.co.il/left/right/fightfightfight [09:40]
* adlai has some candidate titles, will mull them over while he procrastinatesthe sysadmination of things [09:41]
mircea_popescu: ickylove pretty good name [09:41]
mircea_popescu: sounds like a zappa 10 minute song. "Come on baby come get some of that icky love [09:42]
mircea_popescu: icky love... [09:42]
* adlai needs to rearrange his physical world, will report back from the next station. peace be unto all! [09:43]
shinohai: ud Alaskan Pipeline [10:51]
gribble: http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=alaskan+pipeline | alaskan pipeline. n: the act of pooping in to a condom, freezing the rubber overnight, then inserting it in to ones anus. Invented at the University of Iowa by Brian ... [10:51]
shinohai: m'kay den [10:51]
adlai: $up PeterL [11:16]
deedbot: adlai may not $up PeterL [11:16]
asciilifeform: $up PeterL [11:17]
deedbot: PeterL voiced for 30 minutes. [11:17]
PeterL: ty adlai [11:17]
adlai: oh damn, this thing is getting smarter every day [11:17]
PeterL: mod6 http://wotpaste.cascadianhacker.com/pastes/7fac0581-f9c7-4082-8243-0869e2303f24/ [11:17]
PeterL: I cleaned up the python snippet you linked for the dice debiasing [11:17]
PeterL: I took out some of the "sneaky" pythonisms, might be a bit clearer now? [11:18]
PeterL: and I fixed a couple bugs, like the mismatched variable name and some missing float casts in the test, and I added a rudimentary prompt if you run the script from a shell [11:19]
adlai: PeterL: Returns False if any of the three rolls are equall. ''' [11:20]
PeterL: aha, had it as false and then changed to 0, oops [11:20]
asciilifeform: for the record, [11:21]
asciilifeform: something always struck me as very http://trilema.com/2013/the-danger-of-homebrew-crypto - ish about dice-genning keys [11:21]
asciilifeform: yes, it is better than using one's mother's name or 'head' (see http://www.loper-os.org/bad-at-entropy/manmach.html for which sense) [11:22]
asciilifeform: but it is NOT a substitute for modern electric rng [11:22]
* adlai always preferred to use the I Ching ritual, with the yarrow stalks, repeated ad nauseam until you fall asleep from boredom [11:22]
asciilifeform: and yes, yes, 'everyone has dice' [11:22]
asciilifeform: everyone also has an arse [11:22]
asciilifeform: does not mean one ought to generate key with it ? [11:22]
PeterL: and now they can have "provably unbiased" dice [11:23]
asciilifeform: PeterL: more complicated than this. play with the von neumann algo, it is not magical [11:23]
asciilifeform: it only removes reasonably-uniform bias [11:23]
* adlai wonders whether what he should really work on, these days, is completing his "Bitcoin Competence Certification" (the trilema thing) [11:23]
asciilifeform: e.g., 101010101010 will simply end up 000000 [11:24]
asciilifeform: you can't distil entropy from where it does not exist, with von n [11:24]
PeterL: I'm not saying you should use this, just trying to fix the mistakes in the linked code so people could explore it more [11:24]
asciilifeform: adlai: my only advice is that you should work on finding something you ~like~ to work with [11:25]
* adlai likes to read and type, shoot and snipe... the verse is the worste but the rest is the beste [11:25]
adlai: in other news, i'm seriously considering arranging for a bitcoin miner so i can work on p2pool while in the farm [11:27]
adlai: that joke would probably even restore david foster wallacefrom the grave [11:27]
mod6: later tell PeterL hey!! Thanks! [11:30]
gribble: The operation succeeded. [11:30]
mod6: that was very cool. :] [11:30]
mod6: <+PeterL> I took out some of the "sneaky" pythonisms, might be a bit clearer now? << looks that way, I'm gonna play with this a bit tonight. But I did quickly try it out. Thanks again. [11:32]
mod6: <+asciilifeform> but it is NOT a substitute for modern electric rng << hey, i guess to an extent, i totally agree. except, we don't have a modern electirc rng. [11:32]
mod6: <+PeterL> I'm not saying you should use this, just trying to fix the mistakes in the linked code so people could explore it more << yeah, much appreciated. im on an adventure. [11:34]
mircea_popescu: phf a) can has 100 rather than 20 finds for search ? b) http://btcbase.org/log-search?q=moon&page=16 is last page notwithstanding that 16 * 20 !> 500 [12:03]
mod6: here's a question. with regard to this (http://pit-claudel.fr/clement/blog/generating-uniformly-random-data-from-skewed-input-biased-coins-loaded-dice-skew-correction-and-the-von-neumann-extractor/), with three d6 rolls of [453] what would be the result? [12:30]
mod6: I'd say the result should be: 3. [12:32]
mod6: Anyone else want to make a guess or make a case for a different value? [12:32]
shinohai: I wound up with eleventeen. [12:35]
mod6: Eleventeen is out of the range of acceptable values, but a decent guess nevertheless. :] [12:38]
shinohai: kek [12:38]
shinohai: Ignore me, I may or may not be slightly intoxicated. [12:38]
mod6: na, how's it goin shinohai ? [12:38]
shinohai: Good here mod6, 'tis my birthday so making plans to go out later, and you? [12:40]
* shinohai really needs one of those Suburbans that can hold 7 hookers discussed in the old logs. [12:41]
mod6: Hey, happy birthday, Sir! [12:42]
mod6: Oh yeah, seven-hooker-burby is the way to roll. [12:42]
shinohai: Any new updates on trb? [12:43]
mod6: The biggest update comes from lastnight's congressional transcript. [12:43]
mod6: Will be putting immediate effort into a list of discussed problem areas for both ideal bitcoin, and existant bitcoin. [12:44]
shinohai: Yeah I'm going to review that when reading comprehension returns to normal lol. [12:44]
mod6: No worries, it's probably worth a read. Kinda getting things back on track. [12:44]
shinohai: I'm really glad to hear that, haven't had anything to do much besides hunt for Qntra articles of late. [12:45]
shinohai: And I miss poking btc with a stick. [12:45]
mod6: Yeah, my apologies. [12:45]
mod6: Mine still runs and everything is good. Just been in a "lull." [12:45]
mod6: You're now experiencing a lull. [12:46]
shinohai: lulz not lulls [12:46]
shinohai: :D [12:46]
mod6: haha [12:48]
mod6: Anyway, seems like there'll be a lot of things to keep you busy in the near future if you want to work on stuff. So, there's that anyway. [12:49]
shinohai: I'm ready. Thanks to mats I am not worried about space constraints any longer. Gonna try and order some Ada materials soon and get up to speed with you guise. [12:51]
* shinohai drinks a glass to tmsr [~]D [12:53]
* danielpbarron pours a whiskey [12:57]
danielpbarron: cheers! [12:58]
shinohai: Prost! [13:00]
danielpbarron: what is that, dutch? [13:02]
shinohai: German. [13:02]
shinohai: btw danielpbarron didn't you have some info stashed away somewhere on building a gentoo on pogo instead of arch? [13:05]
* shinohai has been meaning to ask. [13:05]
danielpbarron: the info is that it's supposed to be possible, but I have yet to achieve it [13:08]
danielpbarron: I can sorta-run a gentoo on a pogo by chrooting from another linux [13:08]
danielpbarron: haven't gotten it to use its own kernel yet [13:09]
shinohai: Ah okay I was gonna give it a go for shits and giggles. [13:10]
BingoBoingo: If you have too much shits, perhaps change that to goggles [13:11]
shinohai: >.> [13:11]
* shinohai wonders if Qntra would get sued if I wrote a satire piece about Erdogan. [13:16]
trinque: getting sued by Turkey would be awesome [13:17]
ben_vulpes: aaa scrollback [13:18]
ben_vulpes: cannot catch up at th' mo' [13:18]
BingoBoingo: Ok, I'm starting to get tired of this fucking Freenode weather that's picked up substantially since the channel split. Before I could spend weeks with continuous uninterupted connection. Now, I'm lucky to stay connected a whole day. No other aspect of my connectivity has fucking changed. [13:33]
* BingoBoingo considering to move for a motion of shennanigans on Freenode. [13:34]
trinque: seconded. [13:34]
BingoBoingo: Not to mention once disconnecting, reconnecting now takes far more attempts. [13:34]
punkman: you ever get SSL errors on reconnect? [13:35]
trinque: deedbot has been disconnecting with them [13:35]
BingoBoingo: I have not [13:37]
trinque: http://qntra.net/2016/04/soft-fork-advocate-proposes-harder-type-of-soft-fork/ [13:46]
trinque: $up deedbot- [13:46]
deedbot: deedbot- voiced for 30 minutes. [13:46]
BingoBoingo: shinohai: How exactly would Ergodan sue? [13:47]
BingoBoingo: This is not a trivial thing for him to pursue. [13:53]
shinohai: I suppose he would subpoena usg ? [13:53]
shinohai: *via [13:53]
BingoBoingo: Suppose he manages to get papers served and even finds a court that takes jurisdiction. How does he go about taking all of my glorious nothing? [13:55]
adlai: he could ask mircea_popescu to transfer to himself all your s.qntr! [13:55]
adlai: or has turkey not yet opened an mpex account [13:56]
shinohai: LOL [13:56]
shinohai: Sue in the court of tmsr [13:56]
davout: if turkey ends up in receivership, give me a ring [13:57]
shinohai: ^ [13:58]
BingoBoingo: adlai: To be fair, Jurov handles most s.qntr transfers [14:09]
deedbot-: [Qntra] Docker On List Of Companies Taking Quiet CIA Funding - http://qntra.net/2016/04/docker-on-list-of-companies-taking-quiet-cia-funding/ [14:13]
BingoBoingo: ^ Perhaps of interest to Herr vulpes? [14:13]
mod6: BingoBoingo & trinque im not sure how i seem to stay connected for as long as i generally do. but i bet among us all, i have the longest running connection times on average. [14:14]
mod6: And I do nothing special really. Have a node for irc, using irssi. [14:14]
BingoBoingo: mod6: Before the divorce I'd keep connected for weeks at a time. Basically until I did something that closed connection. [14:15]
trinque: the deedbots are entirely separate source code. one's golang, the other's lisp. both tend to disconnect around the same times, and when the box they're on is minimally loaded [14:15]
mod6: I propose that we do not move (too hard to get a full net of slave nodes going + ddos mitigation, which, you know we'll need desperately) until we break off with gossip [14:15]
trinque: I agree with that there's no solution other than gossipd [14:16]
mod6: these issues could very well be the node you're connecting to on freenode i guess. *shrug* [14:16]
trinque: and then, y'know, having our own internet [14:16]
mod6: right. [14:16]
mod6: i know. freenode sucks. but, its what it is for now. [14:17]
mod6: shinohai drinks a glass to tmsr [~]D << here's to your birthday pal [14:18]
BingoBoingo: I'm just bringing this up because the timing of the enshittening seems suspish [14:18]
shinohai: thx mod6 cheers! [14:18]
* BingoBoingo drinks shaker of brotein to shinohai's birthday. [14:19]
trinque: matcha over here [14:20]
mod6: BingoBoingo: eh, yeah, i doubt it. not saying that you're wrong just that, you can't dos a channel itself. only its individuals if you know its inhabitants. [14:20]
mod6: like that dos thing that used to sit in #b-a and collect ips [14:20]
trinque: mod6: other chans I frequent are seeing lots of disconnects and timeouts [14:20]
mod6: yeah, that's probably good-ole fleanode degradation [14:20]
trinque: yup, 'tis a shitpile [14:21]
mod6: i mean, i think we're pretty special and all, ( D ) but i doubt theres a bunch of people who care enough to try to slag down the whole fleanode because of drama. [14:21]
shinohai: Both my irc client and bot stay connected here pretty good, but both are on same box. [14:22]
BingoBoingo: <mod6> BingoBoingo: eh, yeah, i doubt it. not saying that you're wrong just that, you can't dos a channel itself. only its individuals if you know its inhabitants. << I'm not trying to imply anything other than timing of my connection's enshittening seems suspish [14:22]
BingoBoingo: Who knows? Maybe having one more channel was too much for Freenode? [14:23]
mod6: ah. could be. i'd venture to guess that perhaps its the node or nodes on the network segment you're connecting to doing something weird, or bad, or being attacked. [14:23]
mod6: i have like 10 channels open at all times, for decades. [14:23]
mod6: damn near decades anyway. [14:24]
BingoBoingo: In other lulz https://archive.is/jJowM [14:28]

shinohai: ^____^ [14:44]
mircea_popescu: * danielpbarron pours a whiskey << ron cubano original ftw! [14:44]
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo as they explained, they've learned from lessons of the past and will be doing things differently or somesuch. [14:45]
mircea_popescu: we're prolly going to actually need gossipd before we have it. [14:45]
mircea_popescu: mod6 yes you can ddos "a channel itself" in the sense that if it runs on its own infrastructure you just ddos the nodes, ie individual instances running ircd or equivalent. [14:47]
mircea_popescu: * Welcome to the freenode Internet Relay Chat Network mircea_popescu Your host is barjavel.freenode.net[195.154.200.232/8001], running version ircd-seven-1.1.3 << this thing [14:47]

deedbot-: [Trilema] BitBet final settlement - http://trilema.com/2016/bitbet-final-settlement/ [15:55]
mircea_popescu: i guess. that's the bidding nick tho. [16:02]
mircea_popescu: i suppose it's the same guy, but w/e [16:04]
mircea_popescu: in other news, if you send me "notices" ima ignore you. win-win. [16:19]
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo should be interesting once the gods of coincidence arrange for a mob of welfare derps to assault the house of some gonzo or other, resulting in machine gun fire from multiple positions and a few dozen dead innocent bystanders. [16:29]
BingoBoingo: Maybe routine in 15 years? [16:30]
mircea_popescu: routine it'll never be, don't imagine the rats are all too brave. [16:30]
mircea_popescu: but now and again, it should occur. [16:30]
BingoBoingo: All it takes to become routine is the rats becoming *MORE* ratlike. [16:32]
mircea_popescu: romania has and throughout history had the about same exact ethnogroup. gypsyes rather than black, but otherwise exactly identical : loud, gregarious, female-centered, easily dominated by a coupla decisive men etc. [16:32]
mircea_popescu: there's no "more" ratlike. this is, by and large, the golden age. [16:33]
mircea_popescu: all downhill from here. [16:33]
BingoBoingo: Ah [16:35]
mircea_popescu: (oh, yeah, and in a pile of mutatis mutandis lulz, gypsy 'music' [manele] almost exactly replicated the itinerary of black 'music' [rap] except compressed over a decade instead of three. amusingly enough - the participants were extremely fucking EARNEST! in complete and unabashed unawarness of the systemic nature of their deeply personal, thoroughly felt, aesthetico-political choices [16:36]
mircea_popescu: i had the lulz of my life for an entire decade on the topic. there's, by and large, nothing dumber than people.) [16:36]
mircea_popescu: everything you ever saw said or thought or felt about rap as a subcultural phenomenon, some romanian somewhere thought, said or felt, as if they were his fucking own words, feelings and thoughts! and the groups respectively map, also! [16:37]

asciilifeform: why do we care about iso ? [21:01]
mircea_popescu: we don't, but he does, apparently. [21:01]
asciilifeform: no redirects because how do you process, e.g., 03-04-... [21:01]
mircea_popescu: same way you process any other string. [21:02]
asciilifeform: yeah but how do you decide whether it's an isotronic one or old-style to be redirected. [21:02]
mircea_popescu: because if you see it as ?fixme=blabla you redirect it :D [21:02]
