cdd: i half-expected your link would be to auschwitz number tattoos. |
02:51 |

cdd: i'ma assume yer labouring under a misconception, rather than delib. disingenuous. what does a voluntarily-genned pgp key 'by consenting adult' (which ftr need not contain any info re yer meatspace identity, simply rsa pub and a nick you like to be called by) have to do with masterkeyed ssl lulcerts issued by the reich ? |
03:01 |
asciilifeform |
also gotta laff at the suggestion that simply being in the wot is an act of courage, of martyrdom. that's quite a lot of martyrs lol |
03:03 |
asciilifeform |
'you wouldn't want to get a buzz cut and wear a cap, they made auschwitz inmates do it' -- logical?? |
03:07 |
cdd |
asciilifeform: Being in the WoT and having a consistent identity doesn't necessarily tie it to my meatspace identity. I don't see a problem with registering for WoT (in fact I will now if it helps). I don't think that being on the WoT makes you a martyr lmao, I'm not sure how you got to that conclusion. Perhaps a miscommunication of the definition of "anonymity". |
03:08 |
asciilifeform |
cdd: your earlier comment suggested a phobia (and a not uncommon one among noobs) of whole concept of pubkey |
03:09 |
cdd |
Erm, I have nothing wrong with pubkey? I have a problem with government issued PGP keys. It means that a 3rd party (a la government) has your private key. |
03:09 |
cdd |
Which is fucked. |
03:10 |
asciilifeform |
cdd: this is entirely correct, which is why no one in his right mind uses such keys other than at gunpoint lol |
03:11 |
asciilifeform |
cdd: when doing 'consenting adult' biz, you'll naturally generate key on own iron, and keep the priv, well, private |
03:12 |
cdd |
Of course. Assuming you can trust the iron. I really like the FG board. |
03:12 |
asciilifeform |
cdd: do you have one ? |

Spent a bit more than a week in plywood shack at the edge of civilization back in July. Shack part wasn't so bad. Nature was great. Turns out apparently some sort of minimum population is required to think about living somewhere |

some folx are cut out for life in 'mars station'. not erryone. |
17:04 |
asciilifeform |
imho aint a thing to be ashamed of, any more than not playing the cello is |
17:05 |

Population of that particular hamlet is somewhere between 30 and 50 during winter. Maybe cut them out and it could be fine. |
17:05 |

But the tiny permanent population is just... enough people to bother. Not enough to hope to encounter people-people |

Indeed, wearing all of the hats can be complex and tiring at times. Getting additional help to separate responsibilities is important, and sounds like the goal. |

(I'm not saying anything not already known, fwiw, just 'saying it anyway'). |

As the year winds down, I do plan to continue work in this direction. |

mod6: similarly, asciilifeform has been mired in commercial liquishit, and not published too many things of note in past yr |
17:22 |

bringing back the ML would be really great imho. It cuts both ways, it used to be kinda clunky, but at least people could post, and all the submissions were stored in one place. |

I'll commit to testing your dumpblocks_force_mainchain vpatch as soon as I get some time. This sounds bad, but hopefully can report back before end of year. |
17:41 |
mod6 |
I'll also continue work / testing on that rawtx stuff and report in. I think the main function that I'm currently needed to build is signrawtransaction(). I believe I might have all the rest working. |
| |
↖ |
17:42 |
mod6 |
(I may hvae an implementation of sendrawtransaction(), I'll have to look - unsure at this point. Certainly have not tested it, if I do have it implemented.) |
| |
↖ |
17:43 |
mod6 |
I also understand that the goal is, or was, to separate the wallet from trb so the rawtx work I'm doing probably doesn't have a lot of legs or long term use. But I thought it worthwhile to build those tools, at lesat even for my own node / enrichment. |
17:43 |

*shrug* |
17:46 |
asciilifeform |
mod6: imho entirely worthwhile. |
17:46 |

oh for sure, I did try to keep up with the details in the early discussion, but sadly wasn't able to keep up. I'll circle back through that as well. |
17:55 |
asciilifeform |
mod6: originally we wanted to bake an ordinary irc net, then discovered that ircism intrinsically mandates 'supernodes' i.e. central points of failure. |
17:56 |
asciilifeform |
which is the ultimate reason why every irc net which didn't wither away from disuse, eventually ended up like fleanode. |

cdd: I wouldn't try to use that tarball. It will run, but it's missing a lot of important changes. |
22:50 |
cdd |
thimbronion: I'm not too familiar with V, is genesis a patch (for that tarball) or is it like the first git commit in a repo? |
22:51 |
cdd |
Let me rephrase; Is genesis.vdiff standalone, or is it a patch to be applied to an existing build (i.e. Alcuin 9994) |
22:52 |
thimbronion |
genesis is more like the first commit. |
22:52 |
thimbronion |
You can use this: http://share.alethepedia.com/blatta/blatta-9992.tar.gz |
22:53 |
thimbronion |
Note that in the versioning system that blatta uses, lower numbers correlate to later releases |
22:53 |
cdd |
yessir, I also noticed you skipped a version? |
22:53 |
cdd |
9993? |
22:54 |

cdd: this practice is sometimes called 'kelvin versioning'. orig. idea was d.e.knuth's, picture an object cooling, going to (but never reaching) 'absolute 0' |
| |

22:55 |
thimbronion |
cdd: genesis.vpatch was actually 9993 |
22:55 |
asciilifeform |
the latter corresponds to an utterly perfect, bug-free proggy. |
22:55 |
asciilifeform |
e.g. ffa is kelvin-versioned. |
22:56 |
cdd |
thimbronion: oh I see. |
22:57 |
cdd |
asciilifeform: I was thinking about the versioning system before you guys mentioned it, I'd like to suggest a similar thing to TeX, why not use decimal places of say Phi? |
22:57 |
asciilifeform |
knuth's tex 'approached pi' (iirc 'upon the death of the author, the version shall equal pi') |
22:58 |

asciilifeform prefers the simplicity of integers to represent 'cooling' |
22:58 |
cdd |
That is of course a very understandable argument. |
23:00 |
asciilifeform |
see e.g. this exposition. |
23:03 |
cdd |
asciilifeform: I have a few problems, 1. I don't understand Finite Field Arithmetic, 2. I don't understand (is that haskell?) whatever programming language is being used. |
23:04 |
asciilifeform |
cdd: ada. |
23:04 |
cdd |
ah |
23:05 |
asciilifeform |
cdd: if you did e.g. pascal as a kid, you will find it ~99% readable, there's 0 haskellistic exoticism in it (is straightforward imperative lang, similar to c but w/out the buf. overflows and related 'amusements') |
23:05 |
cdd |
well, to my usual spot then: lol. |
23:05 |
asciilifeform |
lol404 |
23:05 |
cdd |
whatt |
23:06 |
cdd |
I lemme check the site, I just assumed it was there because of the url-format |
23:07 |
cdd |
...it is not there. Well shit. |
23:07 |

asciilifeform normally recommends to noobs ffa itself as a lang intro text. |
23:08 |
asciilifeform |
folx who read from ch1 generally don't find themselves in need of ref boox |
23:08 |
cdd |
Right. Time to add ada to a list of things for my LFS build. |
23:09 |
cdd |
I'll give it a shot once I've got everything in order on atleast (one) of my devices. |
23:10 |
asciilifeform |
cdd: don't let the title frighten you, 'finite field arithm' simply refers to what more often is called 'bignum' (arithm. ops. with integers larger than fit in a machine word) |
23:10 |
cdd |
Ohhhh |
23:11 |
asciilifeform |
why this was needed is detailed in ch1. |
23:11 |
cdd |
I will read up. |
23:11 |
asciilifeform |
don't try to eat errything at once, cdd , i rec to pick a thing and 1atatime |
23:12 |
asciilifeform |
it is not given to anyone to be interested in errything simult. |
23:13 |
cdd |
asciilifeform: Yeah, I'm learning my lesson when it comes to that. Even now, I'm trying to learn Common Lisp, build LFS and not explode. |
23:16 |
cdd |
I better focus on this, I might not be on for a while, be well and thank you. |
23:16 |
asciilifeform |
cdd: no worries. |
