mircea_popescu: | the god of magic numbers gave them the 900 second and they're sticking ot it! | [01:15] |
mircea_popescu: | ben_vulpes a) you're not going to make money renting space as such. this wasn't even in the original design, i've nfi why you added it in. | [01:16] |
mircea_popescu: | b) you're not going to charge 1k/mo for any servers, don't be ridiculous. you're going to pay 500-2k to buy the server, and then rent it out for the usual 2x the fixed cost. | [01:17] |
mircea_popescu: | your 42 u full rack takes 40 boxes, optimized so they pull say 150-200 W on average. that'll keep you out of power overages 99% of the time. | [01:19] |
mircea_popescu: | they cost you about 50k to buy, and the rack will run you about 50k for a year. that means your yearly budget is about 100k, roughly. | [01:19] |
mircea_popescu: | !~calc 1e5 / 40 / 12 | [01:19] |

BingoBoingo: | !!balance | [01:20] |
mircea_popescu: | your cost basis is ~200 per server. you can rent them for 3-400 as such, or can give out vpsen, which are more productive. perhaps even "shared" if particularily interested into it. | [01:20] |
deedbot: | http://p.bvulpes.com/pastes/zTdmb/?raw=true | [01:21] |
mircea_popescu: | these take more work, and consequently provide more revenue. | [01:21] |
mircea_popescu: | after the first year your machines are amortized and your downline built, so you're looking at some decent net margin. before the first year you're burdened by the capital costs and stuck with low occupancy, so you bleed cash. | [01:23] |
mircea_popescu: | that's ~the story. | [01:23] |

BingoBoingo: | <mircea_popescu> they cost you about 50k to buy, and the rack will run you about 50k for a year. that means your yearly budget is about 100k, roughly. << This is roughly my impression. 50k colorent, 40-70k-ish hardware, 35-ish k physical presence so as to walk to servers, 2k birthing company, 5k retainers, 100k prudent reserve (In case of Best Korea, Intifada, meteor storm, Pelosi). Rent boxes out for ~2x cost basis (all in, not board so | [01:49] |
BingoBoingo: | PCENGINES APU not so cheap), VPS 3x+ cost basis. Misc weird (i.e. hand courier and colo 32 bit SPARC machine) billed in proportion to time they take from providing excellent customer service and 2x cost basis for livng space. | [01:49] |
BingoBoingo: | But this week is about refining that to more concrete figure. | [01:49] |

mircea_popescu: | but the curse of stupid is amply distributed and heavy indeed. consider : for the past THREE YEARS i have been giving ANY WOMAN IN THE WORLD hundreds of dollars. this is more than ANY "organization" ever did for the women in this world, be it something from usg.alphabet, or usg.un bureaucracy or anyone else. | [11:22] |

a111: | Logged on 2017-10-22 16:29 deedbot: diana_coman rated asciilifeform 5 << His kindergarten is better than your university. Also: producer of sane and reliable fuckgoats, horsecocks and lamport parachutes among other useful items. | [17:41] |
asciilifeform: | also erlehmann wrote in, says he wrote a parachute himself , http://news.dieweltistgarnichtso.net/bin/lamport-parachute-sh.html | [17:42] |
asciilifeform: | i dunno why he found mine ‘convoluted’ tho | [17:43] |
asciilifeform: | i find his - a harder nut | [17:43] |
mircea_popescu: | code, easier to write than read. | [17:44] |
asciilifeform: | imho mine was quite readable | [17:44] |
mod6: | <+asciilifeform> after release 'p', i'ma return to civilized-btctronics among other wurk << cool, right on. | [17:44] |
shinohai: | I did not change asciilifeform 's functions at all, it was readable as is. I simply combined all the functions into a single script xD | [17:45] |
asciilifeform: | i recall | [17:45] |
shinohai: | If it ain't broke, why fix it? (tm) | [17:46] |
asciilifeform: | mircea_popescu: ffa is example of very painful to write, but intended to be a breeze to read, workpiece | [17:46] |
mod6: | <+asciilifeform> imho mine was quite readable << i never had any problem. | [17:46] |
asciilifeform: | in other holyfuqs: hotelshower has A HOSE | [17:59] |
shinohai: | Useful for hosing down pet after feeding her caek and cognac perhaps? | [18:00] |
asciilifeform: | ( in usa these are ~unknown, the one in asciilifeform’s house he brings himself to every new digs ) | [18:00] |
asciilifeform: | shinohai: that’s bidet | [18:00] |
mod6: | <+asciilifeform> in other holyfuqs: hotelshower has A HOSE << like a garden hose? | [18:03] |
asciilifeform: | erlehmann also wrote in re that lamport parachute is neat because can be fired using only paper. which is indeed tru, and quite neat in situation that calls for parachuting. | [18:03] |
asciilifeform: | mod6: like shower hose | [18:03] |

BingoBoingo: | <asciilifeform> http://btcbase.org/log/2017-10-22#1727598 << pcengines ftr costs <200bux (sans disk), draws ~10w, and much spiffier for any practical use than vps << AHA, but it feeds same market segment. The thing about cheap boards is people can forget the other things that go into being a machine like casing, etc | [18:47] |
a111: | Logged on 2017-10-22 05:20 mircea_popescu: your cost basis is ~200 per server. you can rent them for 3-400 as such, or can give out vpsen, which are more productive. perhaps even "shared" if particularily interested into it. | [18:47] |
BingoBoingo: | <asciilifeform> in other reportage from orcvalhalla: there are as many mini-casinos here as banks. << 5 years ago here in Southern Illinois there were few of these, now in most bars and a good chunk of gas stations. Even a few freestanding ones. | [18:48] |
