00:00 trinque seems relevant to the lisp vs perl thing
00:00 asciilifeform trinque: but basic idea is that single-tasking, single-threaded box was inherently responsive
00:00 trinque perl's an interface to a handful of problems, ignores other things
00:00 asciilifeform it -had- to be
00:00 trinque I was for example shocked to find an object system in CL as a layman
00:00 trinque and a few months in I'm pretty sure it has goddamn everything, so to speak
00:01 trinque any "paradigm" of programming you'd like to use
00:01 asciilifeform trinque: because everywhere else on the planet 'object-oriented' is synonymous with 'profound retardation', yes
00:01 trinque yeah, and I went to a school that did C++ and Java, and dropped out of that
00:01 gabriel_laddel <trinque> seems relevant to the lisp vs perl thing << ummm... the angle I'm attacking this from is that meta-programming is inescapable and sexprs are the only sane way to go unless you want to program forth or APL.
00:01 trinque then went on to do python and ruby in industry
00:01 trinque it's a wonder I can hit the toilet with my ass
00:01 gabriel_laddel we know how ALGOL and meta-programming (tree-traversals) interact
00:02 trinque gabriel_laddel: sure, seems you need code to be data to do metaprogramming well
00:02 gabriel_laddel not only that - you /must/ have a simple parsing algorithm, else upgrades are a bitch
00:03 gabriel_laddel checkout the scala "macro" system sometime.
00:03 gabriel_laddel s-expressions + read tables are the ultimate notational abstraction
00:04 trinque way less mental fatigue looking at them, I've found
00:05 trinque I have to run; cheers
00:05 asciilifeform one observation of mine is that the abstraction that most determines the shape of a program is
00:05 asciilifeform the unavailable one(s).
00:05 gabriel_laddel way less mental fatigue looking at them, I've found << I suppose. One can learn to read most anything. The importance here is the triviality of generating "syntactically correct" program texts.
00:05 asciilifeform think this way - if the problem were entirely contained in an -available- set of abstractions of the language, the program would not need to be written!
00:06 asciilifeform (best program is no program.)
00:07 gabriel_laddel !s brick lisp
00:07 assbot 8 results for 'brick lisp' : http://s.b-a.link/?q=brick+lisp
00:10 gabriel_laddel While we're here, I'll note that being tied to text (perl) is quite limiting. On CLIM today I can tell any object how to "present" itself, i.e., how to draw itself on the screen. Such a thing is unthinkable in a language based around regexes.
00:11 asciilifeform gabriel_laddel: it is a mistake to describe perl as 'based on' anything in particular. it is soup, consisting of the entire contents of a crashed delivery van. soup reflective of what is to be found in the author's skullcase.
00:12 asciilifeform this appeals to some people
00:12 asciilifeform for a variety of reasons
00:13 asciilifeform partly because it makes a convincing simulacrum of problem-solving, as (per naggum) hollywood special effects 'may as well be the real thing'
00:13 asciilifeform partly because it allows imbeciles to feel as if they are 'sticking the finger' to those boring 'squares' who actually take the time to think things through
00:14 asciilifeform partly because perl proggies tend to be 'throw-aways' and absolve the author of the burden of actually carrying anything through to completion or (horror) supporting
00:15 asciilifeform but also for many other reasons, which i will not waste readers' time on.
00:15 * gabriel_laddel B.A.D (bitcoin-assets distro) update #1, I just finished rewriting mozrepl in parenscript. Now to cut out extra crud.

00:34 mircea_popescu seems nuts. 1% of new price if used ?
00:34 asciilifeform aha. just like the xyz robot i worked with
00:34 mircea_popescu so where's the 300 dollar bmws
00:34 asciilifeform these things deprecate on the 'usg pays maxint, scrap dealer pays 1%' formula.
00:34 asciilifeform that is where the 300 bmw is.
00:34 mircea_popescu http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=25-04-2015#1111076 << that country is france.
00:34 assbot Logged on 25-04-2015 23:21:58; asciilifeform: i mention it because i can imagine a world where such clocks are considered not only acceptable, but 'state of the art' and 'best practice'
00:35 gabriel_laddel u'u
00:35 gabriel_laddel lol
00:35 mircea_popescu before smartphones, it was not uncommon to stop two people in the street whose clocks were 30 minutes apart.
00:36 asciilifeform there would be a 300 usd bmw if a) 500 people knew of bmw b) machine could only be driven on 100 particular race courses c) by a ph.d. or equiv. d) running on virgin piss
00:36 asciilifeform mircea_popescu: l0l wut? clock towers existed
00:36 asciilifeform now, lazy people also existed. and still exist
00:37 mircea_popescu virgin piss is not that rare
00:37 mircea_popescu especially in the us.
00:37 asciilifeform l0l
00:37 asciilifeform export market then.
00:39 asciilifeform but back to the machines, because i consider this a mega-educational moment - there are countless instruments where you can pay, e.g., 10k on 'ebay' but you can also pay 800k if you want new, with support contract, for the mandatory softs to not be considered pirated, etc., etc., (most of this is strictly usg)
00:40 asciilifeform the one consumer crud item which (i am told) behaves in a similar way is - diamonds.

01:16 mircea_popescu lmao
01:17 mircea_popescu williamdunne so in retrospect : "immutable, fungible, non-discriminatory, and trustless" is really redundant. fungible includes "non-discriminatory".
01:19 jayk !gettrust jayk
01:19 assbot Trust relationship from user jayk to user jayk: ∞ | http://www.btcalpha.com/wot/user/jayk/
01:19 mircea_popescu i would suspect maybe trustless is a misnomer. trust is not involved at all, the point is coherence. the system remains coherent, which is to say it does not fork into ambiguous states.
01:20 mircea_popescu maybe the best description would be "immutable, fungible and entropic"
01:20 mircea_popescu because that is the property here : same as entropy, bitcoin lacks the ability to review earlier states on the base of later states.
01:21 mircea_popescu so described, it is rather clear that bitcoin can not in fact exist : immutability and entropy are mutually contradictory.
01:23 jayk is it worth throwing any money at a mining pool these days with bitcoin being flat?
01:24 cazalla jayk, let someone else bare the cost and just buy coins straight up
01:24 jayk better to buy them right now then

01:26 jayk nope
01:26 jayk self owned
01:26 jayk i never liked the idea, and BFLY labs tried to do it
01:26 mircea_popescu what do you mean ? you got some miners in garage ?
01:26 mircea_popescu yes turning them on is usually profitable.
01:26 jayk nope, nothing yet
01:27 mircea_popescu then depends what you pay for them.
01:27 jayk or if you can get them

08:55 mircea_popescu fluffypony that aside, how does this thing solve situatiosn where dns zones are ambiguous ? (say registrar and host don't match)
08:56 fluffypony the registrar doesn't set DNS records, necessarily, only what the nameservers are (ie. SOA)
08:56 mircea_popescu right
08:56 mircea_popescu but it might.
08:56 fluffypony since DNSSEC follows a signature chain back to the root zone your ISP's DNS server can't fake the record
08:56 mircea_popescu (im still trying to understand exactly how this works)
08:56 fluffypony or even pretend it doesn't exist
08:56 mircea_popescu right.
08:57 fluffypony that said, a DNSSEC fail is a soft fail (as not all zones support DNSSEC at this stage) - so it'll present the address for user validation
08:58 mircea_popescu so it can't be used in unattended systems ?
08:58 fluffypony as long as it treats a DNSSEC as a hard fail it can
08:58 mircea_popescu "By leveraging DNSSEC we are able to prevent MITM-style attacks on an alias." doesn't tell me very much.
08:58 fluffypony ok
08:59 mircea_popescu "What is OpenAlias? OpenAlias seeks to provide a way to simplify aliasing amidst a rapidly shifting technology climate. " << i mean come on.
08:59 mircea_popescu you folk gotta hire someone to do proper tech writing. there's nothing wrong with having sales copy,

08:59 mircea_popescu ok but skip to where
09:00 fluffypony Implement
09:00 mircea_popescu ie "What is the application-side process?" ?
09:01 fluffypony that's what you would do in your application if you were implementing lookups

09:02 fluffypony (preferably with dnscrypt-proxy running, and point it at that)

09:05 fluffypony yes, hence why it was originally created for Monero, where your address is reusable
09:06 mircea_popescu so if i posion dns cache, can i also steal payments for that domain ?
09:06 fluffypony nope
09:06 fluffypony not unless you have their DNSSEC private keys
09:06 mircea_popescu suppose i do.
09:06 mircea_popescu because you know, usg keeps a master key, or so the rumour goes.
09:07 fluffypony well they could always use Namecoin instead

12:51 asciilifeform (sign tx with paper & pen ?)
12:52 williamdunne Sure, it doesn't care who you are so long as you have keys and the ability to sign
12:52 williamdunne Which is very different to say, requiring you to be of a certain nationality, not be doing certain types of business etc
12:53 asciilifeform aha context must've been a comparison with fiat?
12:53 williamdunne If a club lets anyone in, so long as they can travel to the club its not exactly discriminatory, just a matter of practicality
12:53 williamdunne Correct

13:11 mircea_popescu williamdunne essentially, "fungible" and "non discriminatory" are the same thing.
13:11 mircea_popescu if your coin is not fungible you're discriminating
13:11 mircea_popescu if you're discriminating your coin's not fungible.
13:12 williamdunne Sure no, but most people would call dollars fungible - even though they certainly are not
13:12 williamdunne Maybe I'm trying to pander to most people too much
13:14 mircea_popescu anyway, general point stands.

18:02 mircea_popescu i think i managed to botehr the shit out of gabriel_laddel
18:05 mircea_popescu http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=26-04-2015#1112113 << this is in no sense obvious, and you'll have your life's work before you even showing that distinction is at all meaningful.
18:05 assbot Logged on 26-04-2015 20:45:54; jurov: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=26-04-2015#1111472 obviously "computer" science is concerned with computing. biology is concerned with adaptation. not really comparable.
18:05 mircea_popescu first stop, "but cunts dispense souls!"
18:06 mircea_popescu other than that, aglass of water is a computational machine.
18:06 mircea_popescu it computes the positions of ~10^26 water molecules + some impurities.
18:07 jurov not necessarily.
18:07 mircea_popescu which part ?
18:08 jurov under current quantum mechanics model it was proven these molecules are indistinguishable
18:08 mircea_popescu it still computes a water level.
18:08 mircea_popescu and that they're indistinguishable doesn't really make all that difference. there's no rule computation must be discrete.

18:10 mircea_popescu usg.nsa loves "virtualization", but it's by no means the only way to skin that cube.

18:15 mircea_popescu i think ima collect the cunts-on-perl discussion. it's pretty good!
18:17 jurov maybe the only difference is computer science was constructed from mathematical (or not very mathematical, like strings) ideas, where cunts evolved themselves somehow

23:45 EllieAsksWhy Hello Daniel of Twitter! Wow, this is so exciting. I just replaced my keyboard, I was using the virtual one before, so I could barely type and was hesitant to visit here.
23:46 danielpbarron hello! I had invited you in the past but I think this is your first time?
23:46 EllieAsksWhy Daniel, am I driving everyone away by my presence? That happens in NRx Jackal Hour too :)
23:46 EllieAsksWhy Yes, yes, this is my first time, thank you.
23:46 danielpbarron nope, the contrary i'm sure; your presence will almost surely start up a conversation

23:46 EllieAsksWhy I often browse, lurk, read your logs though. On the sidelines, voiceless
23:47 EllieAsksWhy I am still not convinced that Blythe Masters is truly a "master" of derivatives. She seems more like an investment banker/ figurehead.
23:47 danielpbarron get in the WoT then
23:48 EllieAsksWhy I want to be in the WoT. I got a keybase.io key thingy. I was trying to figure out if I could use it for here.

23:55 EllieAsksWhy Oh, on reddit, both the Dark Enlightenment and buttcoin sub-reddits, there are sarcastic/funny named bots that do silly things that make me laugh. Even though they are automated, the incongruity always amuses me.
23:56 danielpbarron assbot keeps the harmony
23:57 EllieAsksWhy I initially knew Web of Trust as the Finnish company mywot which has totally gone to hell since someone bought them out a year ago. Your Web of Trust is more like the real one, that proceeded mywot by over a decade, right?
