mircea_popescu: asciilifeform i'm sorry ? [07:46]
mircea_popescu: ahahaha! so : according to mp's meticulously kept state archives : yes it's true one josef israel kugelmann from fritzlar-kassel (#29044 born 13may1877, prev residence munsterstrasse 60) was (and died) at dachau. his wife, ~betty~ sara, was nee plaut not rotschild. [07:55]
mircea_popescu: seems you found an internet fake. [08:01]
Framedragger: um, i was testing a script, and submitted gpg key to phuctor with luzly metainfo (http://phuctor.nosuchlabs.com/gpgkey/7F1646FA33357FBC152F66E66E297B4F11EF0C3B04438FDF3B254993C3A6F814).. erm, since those specific rsa numbers are already in phuctor db, it'd be safe to remove this one asciilifeform. or keep it for the luls [08:36]
Framedragger: (metainfo was supposed to be different but i experienced a derp.) [08:37]
mircea_popescu: hand operations not worht it [08:37]
Framedragger: this was while testing a script to be given to this austrian dude who wrote me, asking how to submit his server's ssh key (ssh server running on a nonstandard port) [08:38]
mircea_popescu: convertors, not a bad idea. we'll have to fix everything to work with proper rsa format anyways [08:38]
Framedragger: i think some sysadmins may want to be able to submit their ssh-rsa pubkeys themselves. and phuctor only accepts openpgp format, this needs to be converted (ssh pubkey -> gpg pubkey). so i'm adapting/stealing jurov's script and cleaning it up. [08:38]
Framedragger: indeed.. [08:39]
Framedragger: (and yeah, this dude was like, "hey nice project, how do i submit my key for testing" - cool.) [08:39]
Framedragger: (i clarified to him that it's not my project, dunno how he got the impression) [08:40]
mircea_popescu: wellyour name's on it [08:41]
Framedragger: but also asciilifeform's and if you google phuctor it's.. clear? hm. this goes back to the discussion of kindergarten kids stamping their name everywhere, cf. kids who don't [08:42]
Framedragger: i.e., maybe it's not clear because asciilifeform is too shy [08:42]
Framedragger: eh, whatevs. i redirect the masses to f.a.q. etc as needed. [08:42]
Framedragger: (by masses i mean one dude) [08:43]
mircea_popescu: i don't think you understand how software works. there's a very clear denied middle : it is either the product of a ~lone individual~, or else of a corporation. there is no multiple-people-work-without-usg-foundations-and-crap in most people's minds, because there isn't such a thing is most people's experience. [08:43]
mircea_popescu: it's like the girl that naturally fucks on the first date, and demands to be fucked in the ass. yes they can exist. no they don't figure in anyone's expectations. [08:43]

mircea_popescu: asciilifeform at least media consumption data comes from their netflix boxes spying onthem [09:38]
mircea_popescu: no surveys involved. [09:38]
asciilifeform: netflix has hardware box?! [09:38]
* mircea_popescu suffers from a chronic inability to distinguish the microsoft vermin. [09:39]
asciilifeform: but sure, i can picture how this part might work. [09:39]
mircea_popescu: much like some people can't tell blacks apart, i can't really distinguish between https-and-unicode flavouring #1 and #2 [09:39]
mircea_popescu: so watever, tivo ? cable top box ? call it what you will, the official-media-consumption-toolkit. [09:40]
asciilifeform: these are becoming fewer in number, even among chronic tv users [09:41]
asciilifeform: but yes, i can see how it might work, given as most folx who have these get their ip connectivity from same place as the tv box [09:42]
mircea_popescu: are you fucking kidding me ? bad media is becoming deeply universalized i made the mistake to try and watch "black mirror" because omsone said here, it's TERRIBLE from a cinematic point of view (the idiots can't act, can't block, can't speak, can't anyfucking thing the whole thing's a droned on ted talk, which is the point) and now i see it everwhere. last night tried to watch film with harvey keitel and michael cain, it [09:43]
mircea_popescu: turned out to be unwatchable - the EXACT same imbecile substance. [09:43]
mircea_popescu: "oh men are bad and racist and let's all hold hands and have luce irigaray-level issues" [09:43]
mircea_popescu: put on stage by exactly the sort of lazy, stupid and therefore unfuckworthy nitwit that used to be consigned to the margins of etsy craftsmanship and bad mary sue fanfic. [09:44]
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: the ~hardware box~ is becoming less common. most of the derps are watching on comp now. [09:44]
mircea_popescu: fucking epileptic trees had a seizure and took over us media production department., [09:44]
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform sure, because https & assorted crapola of "progress" made it safe to move the box on their pc. and it is cheaper this way. [09:45]
mircea_popescu: consequently attwood pens excited pieces about how "the golden age of x46 gaming is now". [09:45]
mircea_popescu: ie, the same idiots who thought clinton can win actually think they got the platform sufficiently under control. [09:46]

asciilifeform: also imho ben_vulpes has a very spiffy project here and it deserves more brain cycles, he is actually testing the 'bitcoin on alpha centauri' scenario! i.e. replay of time, from genesis and up, in parallel universe, on trb. [10:50]
mircea_popescu: ^ [10:51]
asciilifeform: http://btc.yt/lxr/satoshi/source/src/util.h?v=asciilifeform_add_verifyall_option#0056 << and holy shit what is this. [10:52]
mircea_popescu: pretty sure various people (myself included) did full trb blockchain download but mimi's very open and usefully so. [10:52]
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: no, not full download! that's trivial and everyone did it [10:52]
asciilifeform: he is doing mine-from-0 [10:53]
asciilifeform: in parallel world. [10:53]
asciilifeform: y'know, to see if trb miner actually works. and if indeed the thing can be put on alpha centauri. [10:53]
mircea_popescu: what did i say you're no-ing at ? [10:54]
mircea_popescu: and that looks like ... defensive buffer allocation ? lol. [10:54]
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: as i understand, you were referring to 'spin up trb node from 0 on real-life blockchain'. which more or less everyone involved has done, multiple times. his current thing appears to be the 'lan testnet' scenario i suggested a while back. where one pretends that the year is 2009. [10:55]
asciilifeform: and mines from genesis, transacts between toy nodes, etc. [10:55]
mircea_popescu: i said everyone did x, but y is good. [10:56]
mircea_popescu: anyway, yes, same sentiment. [10:56]
asciilifeform: it is necessary. afaik trb's miner has not been tested since... 2011? [10:56]
mircea_popescu: 2013ish [10:57]
mod6: i've run it myself since then for sure. [10:58]
mod6: im running it now! [10:59]
mod6: works fine. [10:59]

asciilifeform: as i currently understand it, you need a 'binary star' system of two lan nodes for either to actually mine [11:00]
mod6: produce a block? quit trollin' [11:00]
asciilifeform: nono, not on planet earth net ! [11:00]
asciilifeform: in mod6's parallel world. [11:00]
mircea_popescu: no he is right, you can mine it if you stay on a special subnet that's isolated. [11:00]
mod6: that i do not know. but indeed a good test. set diff to 1, then generate [11:01]
mircea_popescu: kinda what prb "testnet" tries to be [11:01]
mod6: totally worthwhile. but the exant code appears to still work on main-net anyway. but agreed, more testing/auditing/investigation required for sure. [11:02]
asciilifeform: i killed the 'testnet' crud because wtf, why did it use variant rules from main-net. [11:03]
asciilifeform: it made 0 sense. [11:03]
mod6: yeah, agree. [11:04]
asciilifeform: it is entirely possible to test 'bitcoin from 2009' simply by running from empty blockchain on lan. [11:04]
mod6: i signed it. [11:04]
asciilifeform: and if not -- then it is broken and needs fixing. [11:04]
mod6: lemme dig something up. [11:04]

mircea_popescu: hey, you signed it mofo :D [11:06]
asciilifeform: afaik this only lives in genesis. [11:07]
mod6: So i think you pointed at this recently: http://btcbase.org/patches/genesis#L12379 [11:07]
asciilifeform: mod6: aha, several times [11:08]
mod6: and if it is required to be attached to at least one other node, then that may be a problem. We could still test on a lan, but you'd have to have two trb nodes on that lan to get past that line of code. [11:08]

mod6: (still trying to catch up, as you can see haha) [11:09]
mod6: And yah, that union is scary. [11:09]
mircea_popescu: its not altogether a bad idea to do this on the contrary, it is the sort of thinking process that denotes a healthy, functioning intellect. [11:09]
mircea_popescu: (the mining not the union) [11:09]
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: in so far as i can tell, that union is at best a screaming idiocy, and at worst a boobytrap, it is a way to straight-out arithmetically munge a pointer without provoking gcc warning [11:10]
asciilifeform: interestingly, it is used only in the miner. [11:11]
mod6: i look forward to ben_vulpes's investgation on this. [11:17]

mod6: An update on progress towards the privkey tools feature added [ import private key with scanning from a specified beginHeight ]: I have proven out the edge case previously mentioned, twice, as expected. It can be resolved by doing a -rescan at any time. So far at least. [11:20]
asciilifeform: mod6: which edge case ? [11:21]
mod6: Lemme see if I can dig it up, stand by. [11:21]
mod6: http://btcbase.org/log/2016-12-10#1580953 [11:21]

Then sent 0.5 bitcoins from pub/priv keypair A to pubkey address B on block 250`000. If the uesr only scans back from 300`000, the balance in the wallet may not reflect the 0.5 output still there for that pubkey (from keypair A). [11:21]
BingoBoingo: <mircea_popescu> do they pump white smoke off the chimney if his dick is on the right side ? << Election by Throckmorton's Sign! [11:21]
mircea_popescu: heh [11:22]
mod6: There are some cosmetic changes I may still make to the handling of the parameters of this function, and further testing, auditing, and validation are still required by third-parties. [11:22]
mod6: But certainly a step in the right direction. Will update again as they are available. Salud! [11:23]
asciilifeform: mod6: as i understand it, the cure is to scan backwards until the search tree terminates in coinbases for all branches. [11:24]
asciilifeform: (which could indeed take you through the entire history of the universe, but chances are -- it won't) [11:25]
mod6: we've discussed this. [11:25]
mod6: and, we certainly could scan backwards. [11:25]
mod6: however, this requires further code changes than are actually necessary. [11:26]
asciilifeform: probably. i imagine the use case for this knob is simple, 'i want to know if i've been paid, and the counterparty has no time machine, so it'll happen some time after $lastblock' [11:26]
mod6: i don't love this feature as it introduces complexity and an edge-case that mig-pilot needs to be aware of in the first place. but i'll consider it based on the idea that the complexity can be contained. [11:26]
asciilifeform: so mod6's simple 'search after $blocknum' worx. [11:27]
mod6: sure. [11:29]
mod6: my vpatch essentially utilizes this function, which exists in the vpatch that was already sent to the ML: [11:29]
mod6: pwalletMain->ScanForWalletTransactions(pindexStart, true) [11:29]
mircea_popescu: tracing all payments to the coinbase will be useful if/when we decide to not accept "segwit" payments. [11:29]
mircea_popescu: "if your coinbases do not trace to a block subsidy, you did not pay." sort of thing. [11:30]
mod6: http://btcbase.org/patches/genesis#L25189 << scans forward from an index pointer [11:30]
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: unless i catastrophically misunderstand, for so long as we continue to count gavinistic payments as actual coin, and forgo 'trace to coinbase', there is a hole wide enough to drive a tank through, for conjuring coin from thin air [11:30]
mod6: mircea_popescu: ah. now that's an interesting argument. [11:30]
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform you can deterministically verify that segwit doesn't create coins without accessing their proprietary binary blob. [11:31]
asciilifeform: only by tallying up the circulating coin, neh ? [11:31]
asciilifeform: which is agonizingly O(N^2) [11:31]
mircea_popescu: by tallying up the segwit inputs and outputs. well, sure, but it can be verified is the point. [11:32]
asciilifeform: has anybody publicly carried this out ? [11:32]
mircea_popescu: it also doesn't work for any individual transaction, just for the whole windows abomination taken together. [11:32]
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform it's in "give them rope" phase of my give them rope to hang themselves with procedure. [11:32]
asciilifeform: true, wouldn't want to knock out the stool from under the gavin until the noose is properly on. [11:33]
mircea_popescu: more's the point, notwithstanding we got a reprieve from "get it done by summer", we still don't have actual alternative we're happy with, so... what's the rush. [11:34]
asciilifeform: it would still be interesting to have alarm bell in trb , connected to 'i booted and it looks like >$maxcoin bitcoin are circulating' [11:36]
mircea_popescu: true. [11:36]
* mircea_popescu recalls publishing the correct value somewhere (it's not exactly 21mn "bitcoin", it's a satoshi count.) [11:37]

mircea_popescu: this is true. [13:28]
asciilifeform: where history happened a certain way and blocks <300k or what it was, are physically unorphanable [13:28]
asciilifeform: just as how the genesis is hardcoded. [13:28]
asciilifeform: btw the checkpoints were certainly not there against martians with infinitely fast miner, but against more elementary syncing-node-mitm. [13:29]
asciilifeform: which remains as simple today as it ever was. [13:29]
mircea_popescu: yep. [13:29]
asciilifeform: so it is not obvious that 'race -- to the swiftest' is correct answer, anyone who can stuff a node into a solipsist cave, can replay time and orphan early blocks, if there is nothing like 'checkpoint'. [13:30]

mircea_popescu: anyway, to be fair here : the russians have no interest in waiting putin might be uncharacteristically meek, but in general a half dozen us ambassadors starting with the resident in manilla within the next week-10days is perfectly possible. at which point obama actually having the gall to call natl emergency and set aside the transfer of power is not entirely inconceivable. after which the russians WILL sink all the us carr [13:48]
mircea_popescu: iers, except maybe one in china sea. at which point obama may or may not launch the nukes. [13:48]

mircea_popescu: the sad truth of the matter is that the us has spent the past few decades giving most initiative away. the fate of the world is not significantly decided in washington at the present time. [14:03]
mircea_popescu: the ~entire thing is just how much the chinese want to and can convince the russians that significant and sufficiently humilatory concessions will be forced out of the us side so they forego actually taking scalps. [14:03]
mircea_popescu: and as per http://trilema.com/2016/and-they-wont-fucking-yield/ the absolutely imbecile generation STILL wants to pretend the conversation is about how racist it is to not allow faggots to "marry" rather than about how idiotic it is to pretend russia is an enemy and africa's an ally or that deindustrialization is a reasonable response to anything. [14:06]
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: the death of the 'fat consumer' system is not optional, it's an exponential/runaway growth hallucinatory nonsense. the lizard deindustrialization program is in re the ~controlled demolition~ of same. [14:10]

mircea_popescu: anyway, you're right in that the "free world" is significantly impeded in sane / reasonable reaction by the unwarranted, wholly baseless conceit that "all people matter", so they can't go on tv and tell every woman she has a week to find a master after which will be packed on catle ship and auctioned off in iran. [14:13]

asciilifeform: meanwhile, 'An Army major general has been stripped of his stars and forced out of the military after a 30-year military career because of a long extramarital affair and "swinger" lifestyle. An Army spokesman says Maj. Gen. David Haight was demoted by three steps to the rank of lieutenant colonel, a steep and rare downgrade for a senior officer. The demotion will cost him more than $40,000 in annual retirement pay, based on pay scale [14:16]
asciilifeform: s for a lieutenant colonel and a two-star general with 30 years in the Army. And it slams the door on what was once a promising career. Army Secretary Eric Fanning approved the board's recommendation and made the final decision. The spokesman was not authorized to discuss the matter publicly so spoke anonymously.' [14:16]

mircea_popescu: one who comes with magical unicorn alternative can not thereby pretend to invalidate the rest of the magical unicorn implications. [14:27]
asciilifeform: it isn't magical in any sense, you and i can do it right now -- e.g., mine an alternate block #300,000 and feed it to a cornered node. [14:27]
mircea_popescu: the cornering is magical. [14:28]
davout: asciilifeform: bitcoin makes no guarantees that you'll be fine if *all* your peers are compromised [14:28]
mircea_popescu: yes, i'm aware various magicks are readily transmutable. [14:28]
ben_vulpes: davout: this is the 'sybil' thread, yes? [14:28]

davout: ben_vulpes: then no :) [14:31]
ben_vulpes: aok [14:31]
asciilifeform: it is in re the earlier gedankenexperiment. say trb operators stuck to the 'grandfather's pistol' principle entirely, and kept no record, other than current copy of blockchain, of the past. no checksums, etc. [14:31]
mircea_popescu: magical type 3 [14:31]
asciilifeform: ? [14:32]
mircea_popescu: listen, randomly transmuting the magical unicorn into magical octopi etc isn't going to work. [14:32]
mircea_popescu: i am aware magic readily transmutes. [14:32]
asciilifeform: where is the 'magical' ? [14:32]
mircea_popescu: in the memorylessness. [14:32]
asciilifeform: it's a thought experiment ! of course it contains a counterfactual. no one afaik is dumb enough to actually do this. [14:32]
mircea_popescu: but it contains a counterfactual of the nature of magical unicorn. [14:32]
asciilifeform: which was my only argument - that it would be stupid. [14:32]
mircea_popescu: if you do this - you may not anymore deny the other implications of magical unicorn. such as you know, someone eating jam and shitting whole plums. [14:33]
asciilifeform: somebody ( ben_vulpes ? ) ~did~ advance the argument that if martian lands and has enough hash, and wants to use it to orphan block # 2, he ought to be able to and we ought to live with the result, iirc. [14:34]
mircea_popescu: that's broadly the idea - "mommy, what should i do if johnny wants to plug my virgin ass ?" "don't let him ?" "what if i can't ?" "you can" "what if magical alien from afar comes and he has magical powers and i really can't ?" "oh, no, HIM you spread for." [14:36]
asciilifeform: as i understand, mircea_popescu objects , that this is an imaginary solution to the quadratic, that there is no physically plausible scenario that follows this path. [14:37]
mircea_popescu: this whole "humans are inferior aliens come but humans still manage to somehow" is rank nonsense, not how things play out, nor how things should play out, nor how anyone wants them to play out. [14:37]
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform no, i complain that you construct a problem that necessarily may not have a solution. [14:38]
ben_vulpes: aight so i can drop checkpoints.cpp then? [14:38]
asciilifeform: well yes, in the literal martian scenario, 'what do i do if a shell hits my trench?' 'jump up twenty metres and scatter yourself around' [14:38]
mircea_popescu: ben_vulpes iirc the discussion at the time ended with me pointing out it should be made arbitrary to user's choice. [14:38]
mircea_popescu: this is still the correct thing. [14:38]
ben_vulpes: ah [14:38]
ben_vulpes: i recall now [14:38]
mircea_popescu: let user pick checksum. this is the only right way to do this. [14:38]
asciilifeform: ben_vulpes: add '--solipsist' and be done with it..? [14:38]
asciilifeform: or mircea_popescu's method. [14:39]
ben_vulpes: asciilifeform: checkpoints.cpp really grates [14:39]
asciilifeform: (except fuck the idiot blockheaders thing! hash entire fucking blocks) [14:39]
mircea_popescu: yes. [14:39]
mircea_popescu: it should be implemented as full block hashes. [14:39]
asciilifeform: the 'headers' thing is abominable. [14:39]
mircea_popescu: even that aside - there's no "propagation" excuse in this usecase. [14:40]
asciilifeform: and it is quite regrettable imho that it cannot be entirely bulldozed in bitcoin as it is. [14:40]
mircea_popescu: don't sweat it alf, eventually there will be a fork. [14:40]
davout: http://btcbase.org/log/2016-12-19#1586084 <<< "show user checksums on demand so he can burn the system down if it doesn't match" sounds sufficient to me [14:42]

mircea_popescu: me repeats bitcoinfs in his corner. [14:55]
trinque: davout: apparently so [14:55]
asciilifeform: trinque: what can, e.g., reiserfs, not do, that you need done to your tx index ? [14:55]
mircea_popescu: davout the objection, to be clear, is that too much maintenance. that's the true cost here. [14:55]
davout: what's "too much" ? [14:56]
asciilifeform: the mega-win from 'use files on disk, in directories' is that i can explore the index with sed, grep, etc. [14:56]
asciilifeform: instead of relying on gigantic binary turd and dedicated toolset. [14:56]
trinque: please to not argue against things I have not said. [14:56]
asciilifeform: (does anyone understand why i put, e.g., 'v', together, the way i did? or the lamportron?) [14:57]
davout: asciilifeform: don't "sed, grep etc." qualify as "binary dedicated toolset" ? [14:57]
trinque: the relational model is not impossible to implement [14:57]
asciilifeform: trinque: i promise not to argue until you say exactly what needs doing that cannot be done with stock fs [14:57]
trinque: I didn't say link sqlite [14:57]
mircea_popescu: davout there are two different items here. a) how much first-time development work is saved (which your proposal addresses) and b) how much maintenance is required to then maintain the infreastructure that saved first-time development work. in the case of bitcoin, b) is the important factor because it scales exponentially : when a is 100 hours, b is 10k hours, substracting an hour of a at the cost of 50% less b means in fact [14:57]
mircea_popescu: you add 50 hours of b, so you made a very bad trade-off. [14:57]
asciilifeform: davout: not dedicated. and arguably if you're using an os 1000 yrs from now that doesn't have exact equivalents of these tools, you have serious problems [14:57]
trinque: asciilifeform: I cannot go calculate the current balance of a given address without walking the chain [14:57]
mircea_popescu: in the case of most modern bright minds, b is "hidden" under the rug and so they don't think correctly about their environment [14:58]
trinque: or I go cache it somewhere and that is stupid [14:58]
asciilifeform: trinque: this is a physical impossibility [14:58]
asciilifeform: of course you can't do it! [14:58]
trinque: that is a trivial SQL query over transactions [14:58]
mircea_popescu: which is why no english-speaking, quora-and-stackexchange, wikipedia-and-tedtalk "entrepreneur" can create value. [14:58]
asciilifeform: trinque: it's still O(N) [14:58]
asciilifeform: think for a minute [14:58]

jhvh1: mircea_popescu: 10**12 * log(10**12) = 1.1999999999999998E13 [15:01]
mircea_popescu: lulzy. [15:01]
mircea_popescu: !~calc 10**12 * ln(10**12) [15:02]
jhvh1: mircea_popescu: 10**12 * ln(10**12) = 2.7631021115928547E13 [15:02]
mircea_popescu: somewhere there, 12 to 25tb worth of indices for a 1tb worth of blockchain. [15:02]
davout: http://btcbase.org/log/2016-12-19#1586183 <<< are you saying that relational storage is nice, but has the high indexing cost? or am i completely amiss? [15:02]
a111: Logged on 2016-12-19 19:57 mircea_popescu: davout there are two different items here. a) how much first-time development work is saved (which your proposal addresses) and b) how much maintenance is required to then maintain the infreastructure that saved first-time development work. in the case of bitcoin, b) is the important factor because it scales exponentially : when a is 100 hours, b is 10k hours, substracting an hour of a at the cost of 50% less b means in fact [15:02]
asciilifeform: btw, p=?=np esoterica aside, 'never say never' in re algorithmic complexities. it is possible to make a number-theoretic 'blockchain' where you check for unspentness by euclid's gcd, for instance. many things are theoretically possible. but this thread afaik is about traditional bitcoin. [15:03]
mircea_popescu: davout completely amiss. if you try to rubify this, you will end up with the kubinetes situation. "nobody knows how this works". [15:03]
trinque: I would not create indices for every transaction [15:03]
trinque: I'd have it run along indexing mine [15:03]
mircea_popescu: the reason we want ~one~ is that we don't want to find we can't maintain two. [15:03]
trinque: -or- the wallet is already a catastrophically shitty implementation of this [15:03]
mircea_popescu: trinque my comment is re a more general case, not just txn, because i am confident you'll end up stuck with a more general problem in practice. [15:03]
trinque: reasonable [15:03]
mircea_popescu: the wallet ~is~ that, yes. problem is humanity doesn't mesh well with computability. ppl want a wallet./ [15:04]
davout: aok, you were referring to the 'pluggable' part, not the 'relational' part [15:04]
mircea_popescu: davout aye verily. [15:04]
mircea_popescu: this is the very important point here - every feature in the toolchain makes programming easier but ~everything else~ (generally here referred to "fit in head" but easily expanded to writing correct tests, maintaining, even KNOWING WHAT BLEW UP when something blows up!) much much harder [15:06]
mircea_popescu: and the differential is in fact so immense and not even linear, that restrained toolset is huge gain. [15:06]
mircea_popescu: in spite of making first-pass coding utter pain. [15:06]
asciilifeform: the algo where you 'wallet' by keeping privkey AND index-of-last-block-where-this-addr-was-input-or-output are kept around, works until , in 'typical human' fashion, [l]user asks for 'fried ice', and wants MOAR, e.g., 'oooh i found a privkey in my underpants drawer, how much is it worth' or 'i want to keep priv on 2+ boxes' or, or. [15:07]
mircea_popescu: and that's just scratching the tipsurface. [15:07]
asciilifeform: well yes. [15:07]
asciilifeform: simplest example that ~everyone is personally familiar with. [15:08]
mircea_popescu: ayup. [15:08]
davout: a valuable advantage of relational storage is that *the user decides* what to index [15:08]
asciilifeform: davout: in point of fact you can decide on fs also [15:08]
davout: "want to import arbitrary keys? cost 5tb of index" [15:08]
asciilifeform: by choosing a different fs to plant the thing on [15:08]
mircea_popescu: the problem with this is that it's not really open to his decision. see something like "user decides what checksum" is eminently user-able. [15:08]
mircea_popescu: but "what to index" is like "user decides when to breathe" [15:09]
asciilifeform: having the db hardlinked in bitcoin is lunacy [15:09]
mircea_popescu: noty. [15:09]
asciilifeform: it does not belong in there. [15:09]
asciilifeform: how to arrange bytes on hdd, is why we even tolerate the misery of having an os, to begin with. [15:09]
asciilifeform: so that different proggies can use same disk turds. [15:09]
asciilifeform: for entirely different, and unplanned, things. [15:09]
davout: hence pluggable interface [15:10]
mircea_popescu: this much is true. it's also not really the part in dispute. [15:10]
asciilifeform: davout: pluggable ~without bitcoin having to know about it~ is the key. [15:10]
davout: sure, no argument here! [15:10]
trinque: this is an entirely reasonable approach and yields the same things I would call it a db. [15:10]
trinque: it's just a question of how much OS you want to eat, and all is a fine answer [15:10]
mircea_popescu: and so we are back to the original bitcoinfs. [15:11]
mircea_popescu: trinque not only that, but anything other than all is kinda indefensible in practice. [15:12]
asciilifeform: the one caveat that i can think of is that it may very well turn out to be unusably slow (as in, >10min block verify), on anything but reiser. (if there even.) [15:12]
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform bitcoinfs ends up with bitcoin-hdd-firmware. [15:12]
asciilifeform: if it must -- it will. [15:14]
mircea_popescu: the expectation ot make an os and not have to write drivers is the sweet sort of innocence usually reserved for coed sluts. [15:15]
asciilifeform: not same as hdd fw omfg [15:15]
mircea_popescu: right. [15:15]
mircea_popescu: writing drivers is two things : a) write the fw or b) call nvidia faggots on a mailing list. [15:16]
asciilifeform: btw if anyone can come up with a WORKING 'crab' (realtek) nic driver in pure long mode asm, we can have, e.g., scheme on iron, and usefully so, in a couplea weeks. [15:16]
asciilifeform: i wasted... dun even care to say how long. on this chore. [15:17]
asciilifeform: with 0 result. [15:17]
mircea_popescu: didja ask the finn ? [15:17]
davout: i'm still not convinced that the relational approach is not the correct one, as far as an arbitrary inspectable DB is required [15:17]
mircea_popescu: how would you be convinced ? [15:18]
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: most folks run for the hills when i say 'yes in asm, and no you don't get to use any existing code' [15:18]
trinque: davout: idea is that these querying tools could as well use reiserfs or another as the "disk data format" [15:18]
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform but did you ask the fin. [15:18]
asciilifeform: and i'm pretty sure it came up when the finn was here. he vanished. [15:18]
trinque: as say pg has whatever it shits into /var/lib/postgresql/data [15:18]
mircea_popescu: dude... [15:18]
mircea_popescu: ask the fucking fin. [15:18]
asciilifeform: how am i to ask him, lol, he disappeared. [15:18]
mircea_popescu: he left an email or something iirc. [15:18]
* asciilifeform digs for d00d's mailbox. [15:18]
mircea_popescu: but yes, trinque has it, the discussion really is about what a db would call "the disk data format". [15:19]
davout: did we just add tmsr-db on the todo? [15:20]
asciilifeform: btw i dug out, long ago, a crackpot implementation in one 'baremetal os' (actual title) of supposedly-it. it dun work on any actual iron i was able to buy. [15:20]
mircea_popescu: was there since long ago. [15:20]
asciilifeform: and i bought a dozen cards of various vintage. [15:20]
davout: right [15:20]
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: the problem is that 'normal people' drivers rely on there being a working pci bus, interrupt controller, etc. stack in the os, rather than programmed-bare-io [15:21]
asciilifeform: so they are of 0 interest to me. [15:21]
asciilifeform: (e.g., the one in linux. or bsd. or mac.) [15:21]
mircea_popescu: more or less. [15:21]
mircea_popescu: hence my comment re fw above. [15:21]
asciilifeform: i studied the one in coreboot [15:21]
asciilifeform: it ALSO DOES [15:21]
asciilifeform: yes, the pxe boot rom. [15:21]
mircea_popescu: it would. [15:21]
asciilifeform: has whole motherfucking os. [15:21]
asciilifeform: megatonne of 'idiomatic c' [15:22]
asciilifeform: rubbish. [15:22]
mircea_popescu: think for a moment what immense pile of varying switches the other approach would be like. [15:22]
asciilifeform: it'd be a few 100 lines of asm [15:22]
asciilifeform: particular, yes, to the card. [15:22]
mircea_popescu: to work on all the consumer [15:22]
mircea_popescu: right. lol. not what coreboot tries to do. [15:22]
asciilifeform: i actually got hold of msdos driver [15:22]
asciilifeform: for netware. [15:22]
asciilifeform: believe or not, for a card made in 2011. [15:22]
asciilifeform: it was the closest thing to what i want. [15:22]
asciilifeform: now must reverse it. will take a while, and only can even begin when hands again are free to do this [15:23]
asciilifeform: (and when?!) [15:23]
asciilifeform: it is in, yes, 16bit asm. [15:23]
mircea_popescu: heh [15:24]
asciilifeform: one problem with asciilifeform in particular is that his patience with x86 crapola has become very short [15:24]
asciilifeform: a younger d00d like, e.g., trinque , might get more result. [15:24]
trinque: this younger dood already has a pile of ppc [15:24]
trinque: :p [15:25]
asciilifeform: well it doesn't have to be trinque . [15:25]
trinque: but yes, am learning amd64 asm currently. [15:25]
asciilifeform: but somebody who isn't walking with years of radiation damage from reversing x86 for money. [15:25]
mircea_popescu: we need moar younger... actually , moar younger women plox. [15:25]
asciilifeform: ^ [15:25]
asciilifeform: trinque: if it isn't megaseekrit, where'dya get a hold of a ppc ? [15:25]
asciilifeform: or is this a vintage box [15:26]
trinque: loads on ebay [15:26]
asciilifeform: aaah [15:26]
trinque: I've been buying lots of mac mini g4 [15:26]
asciilifeform: neato [15:26]

asciilifeform: boxes that cost 3-4k usd new, in mid 2000s, going for pennies [15:26]
asciilifeform: (crapple dropped all support) [15:27]
trinque: yeah, I've got one of those guys sitting here too [15:27]
trinque: and an xserve on the way [15:27]
asciilifeform: neato [15:27]
asciilifeform: pick up some old sgi iron, if doing this, it has even better bang/buck ratio [15:27]
asciilifeform: i saw an 'origin' sold once, for price of scrap, and it worked [15:27]
trinque: kk [15:28]
asciilifeform: of course this all comes with a very real risk of turning into theo de raadt and moving into a cave, muttering, wearing hair shirts, sleeping in coffin [15:28]
asciilifeform: but perhaps -- worth it [15:28]
mircea_popescu: teh republic will have to commit to in some manner providing lifeline for above. [15:29]

mircea_popescu: asciilifeform the notion that russia was at some point popular in the ukraine is utterly insane. when was this exactly, i don't get it, before or after the muscovy went to space ? [20:03]
asciilifeform: which ua [20:08]
mircea_popescu: ua. [20:08]

mircea_popescu: (obviously what he's trying to do is speculate the cluelessness of english speakers, but whatever, we already know the guy's an utter shithead.) [20:09]
danielpbarron: mircea_popescu, what do you mean lend-lease? [20:15]
mircea_popescu: danielpbarron i mean that if some guy who is actively developing for some iron is shying away from buying a piece because he only has part of the money i'd consider cutting a deal. [20:16]
mircea_popescu: especially if a) the piece is actually useful as opposed to curio and b) it's being sold for scrap by the imperial idiots. [20:17]
asciilifeform: though i can think of a few exceptions ( transport for, e.g., cray, or connection machine - and yes, i knew a d00d whi bought connection machine! is not easy or cheap ) -- generally old hardware of the interesting sort ( vs everybody's old 386 ) is cheap [20:23]

asciilifeform: which is what subj is [20:24]
asciilifeform: and yes, cheap today, unobtainable tomorrow. [20:24]
mircea_popescu: no, i mean the kind of cheap you're talking about, "oh, soy is cheap and gold is expensive". volumes scale, soy is sold in the ton and gold in the ounce. there's no "cheap" if it's 20 a pop you bundle 1k together. [20:24]

mod6: <+mircea_popescu> and so we are back to the original bitcoinfs. << aha [21:00]
mod6: <+asciilifeform> the one caveat that i can think of is that it may very well turn out to be unusably slow (as in, >10min block verify), on anything but reiser. (if there even.) << would be great to start experimenting with this in '17 [21:01]
mircea_popescu: word. [21:01]
mircea_popescu: tbh, if the "hdd" is correctly constructed (out of ssds, blockchain is the killer problem for ssds) then it should be so fucking fast... [21:01]
mircea_popescu: and no, there's nothing fundamentally wrong with "buy 64 ssd drives and raid them". [21:02]
mod6: <+davout> did we just add tmsr-db on the todo? << there is a ticket for this: http://thebitcoin.foundation/tickets/trb_tickets.html#6 [21:02]
* asciilifeform uses ssd raid [21:03]
asciilifeform: it's the correct way to use'em [21:03]
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform yes, but a raid controller that is made-for-our-purpose, and part of the whole stack all the way to db... [21:03]
mod6: <+mircea_popescu> mod6 got al ink ? << i'll dig it up once im caught up here... [21:04]
mircea_popescu: kk [21:04]
asciilifeform: worx even with ancient controllers. [21:04]
mircea_popescu: im sure it does. [21:04]
mod6: ok here's one part: [21:17]
mod6: http://btcbase.org/log/2015-06-24#1174421 [21:17]
a111: Logged on 2015-06-24 18:31 mod6: ascii_field: re: checkpoints: the patch worked fine to remove checkpoints, but it was tabled for the time being. the main discussion around this was that it could be helpful to hvae checkpoints in there to prevent spamming of blocks from timestamps before a checkpoint. [21:17]
mod6: and it kinda continues from there, so worth a bit of a read [21:17]
mod6: which i guess was all in response to alf's question just above: http://btcbase.org/log/2015-06-24#1174408 [21:18]
a111: Logged on 2015-06-24 18:15 ascii_field: ben_vulpes, mod6, mircea_popescu, et al: can anyone recall why http://therealbitcoin.org/ml/btc-dev/attachments/20141218/bitcoin-v0_5_3-rm_checkpoints_41327b9a962e6d27869f4d361d742ab5c7061ede.5.patch didn't make it in ? [21:18]
mod6: also, iirc around the same time there was much ado about the wedge @ 168`001 or whatever it was... but that turned out to be the database locking issue. [21:21]
mircea_popescu: mod6 that "separate config file" references what i recall as a previous discussion. [21:21]
mircea_popescu: aha. [21:21]
mod6: <+mircea_popescu> mod6 that "separate config file" references what i recall as a previous discussion. << aha, now i recall. I think the suggestion was that one could, from a config file, turn checkpoints on or off, or add new ones if they wished. [21:22]
mod6: lemme see if I can dig that part up too. [21:23]
mircea_popescu: well, it was more like "should be exposed to user, WHAT checkpoint to use". ie same as here. [21:23]
mod6: yeah. ok, it merits a ticket in the project. [21:25]
mircea_popescu: prolly mature enough by now i guess. anyway shouldn't be a huge thing. [21:25]
mod6: fair enough. [21:26]
mod6: !%help [21:27]
phf: http://btcbase.org/log/2016-12-20#1586446 << i think you mentioned before, but you had some sikrit hardware raid that you were reasonably happy with? i've been doing some cleanup on my data, throwing out old usb drives and such, i've been meaning to replace software raid (which is ... spotty) with something that i don't have to think about [21:28]

asciilifeform: unrelated, and of 'historical' interest, http://nosuchlabs.com/fg/photo/yoke.jpg << first FUCKGOATS slave yoke test, from last week. [22:02]
asciilifeform: (the fat connector is a chained jtag for handy simultaneous reflash of both yoked units) [22:03]
asciilifeform: the loose-hanging wires - were attached to logic analyzer, which had to visit bench in other room when this pic was taken. [22:04]
asciilifeform: btw if anyone knows where one might buy breadboard bigger than this, i'm all ears. [22:05]
asciilifeform: afaik they don't exist. [22:05]

mircea_popescu: mod6 nice! [23:04]
mircea_popescu: dude check them out they deliver 19k mah out of a 100g package. [23:10]
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: aha, it is lovely, a FUCKGOATS rng board could run for year+ on one. [23:18]
mircea_popescu: pretty cool [23:19]
asciilifeform: and the bugger runs a-ok at -55C. [23:19]
asciilifeform: which afaik no other battery does. [23:19]
mircea_popescu: yeah just great. [23:19]
asciilifeform: funnily enough, at my first paying jerb i used up dozens of these batteries, electric pipette ran on'em, and i had nfi why they were interesting other than 'bitch to get' [23:20]
asciilifeform: (why the 'rainin' pipette ran on them, i have nfi to this very day, ask the french not me) [23:20]
asciilifeform: oh huh, looks like mettler toledo bought'em [23:21]
