02:26 asciilifeform BingoBoingo: disappointing, but unsurprising. in usa also riots ~always like that -- the designated 'kindling' (i.e. slums) burn, and (almost...) never the skyscrapers.
02:28 asciilifeform http://logs.nosuchlabs.com/log/asciilifeform/2019-12-01#1002958 << shortly after commenting had the realization that surely diana_coman was discussing something other than the diff/press per se -- so left off, will read detail if/when posted
02:28 snsabot Logged on 2019-12-01 08:08:10 diana_coman: sure, mechanically the actual press takes max 1 min.

15:34 asciilifeform !q uptime
15:34 snsabot asciilifeform: time since my last reconnect : 29d 0h 15m
15:41 BingoBoingo asciilifeform: Well this is the early going, these things seem like they are trying to bait a reaction. Supposedly next weekend there will be a heavier police presence in the area where these things are starting.
15:47 asciilifeform BingoBoingo: what kinda riot is a 'weekend affair' ?! iirc bmore burned for 2wks straight..
15:49 BingoBoingo asciilifeform: Well, remember the spot near the MONTEVIDEO sign where the locals go everynight to hit their mate crack pipes on the hillside? This appears to be the younger fraction of those derps that gathers in the area a bit later.
15:50 BingoBoingo They just really don't know how to riot
15:50 BingoBoingo And their supply lines to get to where they are going to be disorderly are long.
15:52 BingoBoingo Most of these folks gotta spend at least an hour on the bus to get back home.
15:53 BingoBoingo From what I understand, Baltimore rioted in their own neighborhood.
~ 1 hours 6 minutes ~
17:00 asciilifeform lol BingoBoingo , what sorta riot is it where the buses still run?! them buses oughta be upside-down and burnin'
17:00 BingoBoingo Low energy derps
17:00 asciilifeform evidently
17:00 BingoBoingo Who seriously don't know how to do it.
17:01 BingoBoingo My walk yesterday showed that they were learning basic shit like "how to break glass" as they went along.
17:05 BingoBoingo asciilifeform: In Uruguayos never leave their own homes http://archive.is/AigEd
17:06 asciilifeform BingoBoingo: saw ( tuned into #t still -- simply mp asked me not to spam his chan, so i honoured this req )
17:08 BingoBoingo asciilifeform: Just the broken assumptions. "No people never go from one barrio to another" "No, the navy police isn't really the navy despite being the biggest thing the navy does" "Kids breaking shit can't be labeled rebels because they don't wankily write manifestos before they start breaking shit"
17:09 asciilifeform BingoBoingo: football rioters also then 'rebels' ?
17:10 BingoBoingo asciilifeform: Nah, football rioters are more a product of marketing keeping they from effectively rebelling.
17:11 asciilifeform BingoBoingo: i dun think anyone's 'effectively rebelled' since 1959 or so
17:12 BingoBoingo Saint Louis, Baltimore, and the other mid-size US inner cities appear to have done so.
17:13 asciilifeform maybe i'm thick, but was in bmore not too long ago and saw it still flying usg flag
17:14 asciilifeform ( and e.g. the docks were still packed w/ nomenklatura yachts, 'wives with voices like unoiled hinges'(tm)(r)(orlov), and not revolutionary armada...)
17:22 BingoBoingo Some folks just don't seem to have ambitions outside their own neighborhood.

21:46 asciilifeform hey jfw : is your scheme wallet prototype published somewhere ?
21:48 * asciilifeform found in particular interesting 'Using those fixnum extensions I was able to replace some quotient/remainder ops in the older bignum code with bitwise ops, which gave a 12% speedup in address generation. Further optimizations are possible but would require a deeper dig from what I'm seeing.'
21:49 asciilifeform e.g. ^ sounds like textbook case for barrett .
