danielpbarron	I have no doubt that these same people, had you enthusiastically said to them, "Your 64MB flash drive will hold a 64GB in a few years and cost less!" would have scoffed at the idea. The same thing is happening with Bitcoin. Men who know nothing about software are scoffing at the idea that Bitcoin can change and improve. Its an a-historical perspective, to use parliamentary language. On IRC, they simply say, "DERP!".	[00:57]

danielpbarron	They are very short and terse in the text (just as the Bitcoin White Paper is) and you are invited to run the software yourself. The install process is simple, and then the software either does what it developers claim it does, or it does not. Its all simple and straightforward.	[01:03]

danielpbarron	To do this, you issue everyone with write access to the database, a GPG Keypair that they use to sign entries and changes. Each signer will have a GPG Keypair, and a separate machine will automatically sign all entries with its own keypair, for time stamping and authenticating entries. << this guy writes like he reads the log but misses the point	[01:10]

mircea_popescu	http://log1.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=04-04-2015#1087666 << dude, it's not a discussion that "markets don't work". it's a discussion that before markets can work, you gotta have them. similarly, if you don't have running water, you have a hygiene problem. this isn't because "bathrooms don't work", it's because you.do.not.have.one.	[01:23]
assbot	Logged on 04-04-2015 02:04:31; junseth: RE: the discussion about markets, I generally disagree with the notion that markets don't work. I know it's a common mantra. But markets, even decently regulated ones, work pretty well. Regulated markets price in the cost of regulation.	[01:23]
mircea_popescu	yes the market would be a great solution, were it applied. sadly, "the political costs". ie, exactly the same tired old record that drove the soviet union into the wall.	[01:24]

mircea_popescu	http://log1.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=04-04-2015#1087709 << central banking is, contrary to the disinfo floating around, in no way part of the problem. it managed to work as a mostly-solution for a long time, but meanwhile the dung overflew it and it's clogged.	[01:27]
assbot	Logged on 04-04-2015 02:21:29; junseth: Haha, well the question is what was the alternative. The alternative before the Fed was not necessarily better. I'm not a fan of central banks. But I think it's disingenuous to say that the central bank hasn't done a decent job of "running" the currency. The solution is to solve the problems caused by central banking. I think that's why we're all Bitcoiners.	[01:27]
mircea_popescu	the problem is "consumers have come to expect" and "representative democracy", not the central bank.	[01:27]

mircea_popescu	this trolling. it is 7/10	[01:41]

assbot	Logged on 04-04-2015 02:36:19; trinque: nothing in life is unregulated but this is distinct from saying all regulations come from one place	[01:43]
mircea_popescu	but otherwise, most everything in life is unregulated.	[01:43]
mircea_popescu	this may be scary, but it is right and proper.	[01:43]
trinque	I wasn't talking about just human life	[01:44]
trinque	everything that lives has limitations imposed by other things	[01:44]
mircea_popescu	http://log1.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=04-04-2015#1087798 << he has a point in that it's not a waste to read them, esp given the methodology.	[01:44]
assbot	Logged on 04-04-2015 02:46:05; decimation: but some of them are probably fixes for obscure bugs that might be useful to know about	[01:44]
mircea_popescu	trinque the difference between that and regulation is the statutory nature of the later.	[01:45]
mircea_popescu	gravity is a limit but it regulates nothing. the murder taboo is a limit and regulatory.	[01:45]
trinque	yeah, I was off the mark in trying to describe the abnormality of that, actually	[01:46]
trinque	nobody centrally plans the fucking habits of this or that species	[01:46]
mircea_popescu	http://log1.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=04-04-2015#1087800 << "you can not study nonsense at the university. but the history of nonsense - now that's scholarship."	[01:46]

mircea_popescu	trinque comes down exactly to the ancient causes and purposes distinction. if people find a way to fly, nobody "deems gravity broken" or hoilds talks on how to patch it "because this wasn't the intended result"	[01:47]
mircea_popescu	it has no intended result, not being regulation. it simply flows from causes. this is why it's sustainable where the regulatory crud never was.	[01:47]
trinque	right, causes aren't arbitrary	[01:49]
mircea_popescu	well, something like that. moreover, they aren't imaginary. they're actual. purposes are always and necessarily mere delusions.	[01:49]
mircea_popescu	which is why natural laws do not rely on some sort of "intelligence", to be epitethically generous.	[01:49]

mircea_popescu	asciilifeform & wimc : so rms sez he never heard of libnss before, and can't even recall what it does.	[14:07]
mircea_popescu	foss seriously has a problem by now. and it is of the nature of alf's "fits in head" thing.	[14:08]
asciilifeform	ahahahaha.	[14:08]
mircea_popescu	it's not even fucking funny.	[14:09]
*	asciilifeform not surprised for a nanosecond.	[14:09]
mircea_popescu	and i don't believe the man is anything but 100% honest.	[14:09]
asciilifeform	i very much believe him.	[14:09]
mircea_popescu	this is why the nsa even exists still.	[14:09]
asciilifeform	honest - yes. but in a kind of self-imposed exile from worldly things.	[14:09]
asciilifeform	he had the option of 'becoming apolitical' (yes, sounds odd to use this phrase to describe rms, but it applies) - and he took it.	[14:10]
mircea_popescu	this is their charter. "our continued existence is a fortunate byproduct of the situation where nobody even knows what's in the boxes."	[14:10]
mircea_popescu	what do you eman by "apolitical" ?	[14:10]
mircea_popescu	am i apolitical ?	[14:10]
mircea_popescu	is linus ?	[14:10]
asciilifeform	rm is apolitical in precisely the sense mircea_popescu is not	[14:10]
asciilifeform	linus is close to getting there	[14:11]
mircea_popescu	is apolitical = "i don't give a shit about whatever your ideology may be" ?	[14:11]
asciilifeform	it means that if a pile of shit stinks too loudly he has the option of turning his nose and pretending it isn't there - and takes it	[14:11]
mircea_popescu	i don't see this actually describes either situation.	[14:11]
asciilifeform	linus either does not notice poettering (unlikely) or (more plausibly) does not give a damn	[14:11]
mircea_popescu	exactly.	[14:11]
mircea_popescu	happens to be the correct stance. why would he give a damn ?	[14:12]
asciilifeform	to smite the vermin ?	[14:12]
mircea_popescu	this is an aesthetic consideration.	[14:12]
assbot	[MPEX] [S.MPOE] 26835 @ 0.00029122 = 7.8149 BTC [+]	[14:12]
asciilifeform	do we kill mice, roaches, by pretending they aren't there ?	[14:12]
mircea_popescu	it can never be the proper purview of ethics.	[14:12]
mircea_popescu	(ie you can't tell anyone what to do out of their own aesthetic sense)	[14:12]
asciilifeform	well sure. so his aesthetics have a place for mice in his home.	[14:13]
mircea_popescu	in your home.	[14:13]
asciilifeform	aha precisely	[14:13]
asciilifeform	this is the difference.	[14:13]
asciilifeform	these mice tunnel through time and space.	[14:13]
mircea_popescu	the alternative (where he does things to your home) is eerily socialist.	[14:13]
asciilifeform	i see the mice, if we run with them, as inhabiting - his bakery	[14:14]
mircea_popescu	this argument i can see	[14:14]
mircea_popescu	but you must grant it's faint.	[14:14]
asciilifeform	i buy a loaf and therein are turds.	[14:14]
asciilifeform	at any rate rms distanced himself from the userland 'big picture' long ago, when 'hurd' was still a going concern	[14:15]
mircea_popescu	libnss is not userland.	[14:15]
mircea_popescu	it's c "core" in the sense that lo and behold, ruins linkability.	[14:15]
asciilifeform	mircea_popescu: the traditional 'magisteria' are kernel-land and user-land	[14:16]
asciilifeform	not my terminology, but that of ancestors.	[14:16]
mircea_popescu	you can not statically link anything now.	[14:16]
mircea_popescu	this is kernel-land.	[14:16]
asciilifeform	but yes, compiler is infrastructure. and the bridges - are falling, falling down.	[14:16]

mircea_popescu	right.	[14:18]
asciilifeform	most of them require a gnarly dynamic shim (opengl or otherwise)	[14:18]

mircea_popescu	"why tyvm!"	[14:18]
chetty	well it has the gnarly shim of opengl and still wont	[14:19]
mircea_popescu	no but that it can't link statically because it's what it is, like dns.	[14:19]

mircea_popescu	a number of people here are doing the same.	[14:33]
asciilifeform	whaack: let me know if you learn the answer to this one. it eludes me.	[14:33]
mircea_popescu	many people in the history of the world did a job that stank. eventually either the stench kills you or you make enough to no longer need it.	[14:33]
punkman	valgrind's dynamic substitution for memory allocator -does not cover all of bitcoind << I'm guessing it's that custom allocator for some privkey data types	[14:33]
asciilifeform	punkman: not related to the privkey mechanisms (they are not active in my test rig.)	[14:34]

ben_vulpes	nubbins`: are you working with buildroot from within a gentoo vm on your mac?	[15:58]
nubbins`	yes	[15:59]
nubbins`	hence the 3.5h compiles	[16:00]
ben_vulpes	dag.	[16:00]
ben_vulpes	is that to compile buildroot itself or using buildroot to compile linuxen?	[16:01]

ben_vulpes	i see	[16:02]
nubbins`	that's to compile a cross-toolchain, and a kernel with rootfs	[16:02]

nubbins`	virtualbox	[16:02]

ben_vulpes	i'm looking for the 'how to gentoo without systemd for noobs' link	[16:03]
nubbins`	let me find the guide i followed	[16:04]
trinque	ben_vulpes: you don't end up with systemd unless you ask for it	[16:04]
trinque	you get openrc by default	[16:04]

assbot	Handbook:Main Page - Gentoo Wiki ... ( http://bit.ly/1GUpmW1 )	[16:05]
nubbins`	pick your arch at the top and go ahead	[16:05]
nubbins`	like trinque says, you have to explicitly choose systemd	[16:05]
nubbins`	https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Handbook:AMD64/Installation/Base#Optional:_Using_systemd	[16:06]
assbot	Installing the Gentoo base system - Gentoo Wiki ... ( http://bit.ly/1GUptRm )	[16:06]
nubbins`	"The remainder of the Gentoo Handbook focuses on OpenRC as the default init support system. If systemd is wanted instead, or are planning to use Gnome 3.8 and later (which requires systemd), please consult the systemd page as it elaborates on the different configuration settings and methods."	[16:06]
trinque	gentoo has a concept of "profile" which sets a bunch of defaults in use flags, masks, etc	[16:06]
trinque	you'd have to choose a systemd profile which is not the default	[16:06]
trinque	you will in the default profile end up with systemd's udev though	[16:06]
trinque	lemme see what I did about that per asciilifeform's suggestion	[16:07]

trinque	nubbins`: what are you masking related to openrc?	[16:08]
nubbins`		[16:09]
nubbins`		[16:09]
trinque	you use sysvinit? or is that meant to keep you from getting an old version of openrc?	[16:09]

ben_vulpes	so the 'static' build i produced on my deb 6 VM wasn't truly static, but claimed to be even though it dynamically linked into libnss on whatever system on which it ran successfully?	[17:24]
mircea_popescu	yes.	[17:24]
ben_vulpes	and the bug discovered in gcc is that it warns about this but does not die when run with static compile flags?	[17:24]
mircea_popescu	the bug discovered in gcc is that it allows libnss to even be linked AT ALL.	[17:27]
mircea_popescu	in no way different from pulling in windoze.dll or anything else.	[17:28]
mircea_popescu	then rms has to catch hell about "not supporting lldb". how about you know, taking libnss the fuck out with a hot poker.	[17:28]

ben_vulpes	mircea_popescu: "linked at all" << (bear with my unsavvy, please) so gcc instructed to build statically should fail to link libnss because it dynamically links to system libs, but gcc instructed to build dynamicall should not fail under these conditions?	[17:32]

Adlai	the [fake plastic] tree of liberty must be from time to time refreshed with the blood of scapegoats	[20:48]
