i would personally be surprised to learn that anyone bothered to implement multicpu ver prior to 950+kb blocks |
13:12 |
mircea_popescu |
what the current outsider schmucks (on #bitcoin-dev and etc) hope to achieve with their time is, release enough code that nobody* uses to give the impression they know their shit, so they can one day maybe join the actual miners as a junior analyst, and until then survive on conference rubber chicken. |
13:12 |

it's a shitty game plan, but then again there's women aspiring to be singers, so. |

sop is meaningless for the aforementioned reasons |
13:13 |
mircea_popescu |
this isn't a field where such a thing as sop may be a defined symbol. |
13:14 |
ascii_modem |
just that without heavy blocks, multicpu makes no appreciable difference |

ascii_modem the gist of what i'm saying is that while foundation publishing the best code possible is a very useful and very worthy thing, you do not have game theoretic reasons to expect the things you were claiming to ewxpect |

chiefly because that game doesn't exist, in a number of wayus. |

the broader problem is that the way mining works is very much discouraging middle, which is a serious problem, as death of the middle class always precedes centralization. |
13:18 |
ascii_modem |
would soon learn |
13:18 |
mircea_popescu |
the way this works is : if you're any good as a miner, you're going to have your own infrastructure. you might keep the pool closed, |
13:18 |
mircea_popescu |
but it also costs you nothing to keep it open |
13:19 |
mircea_popescu |
and so, once it's open, people that aren't every bit as good as you no longer have any incentive to continue |
13:19 |
mircea_popescu |
instead, they point at you. |

they learned it the same way, too : by having it beaten into them as children. |

well as i understood, you contend that the ant death is 'promise, not protocol'. when i suggest that it can be protocol, answered 'they will take the ants' - no ? |
13:32 |
mircea_popescu |
no. |
13:33 |
mircea_popescu |
i answered that in not taking the ants, they're doing exactly what people proposed miners do in 2010 : "well it's centralizing but they should honorably resist" |
13:33 |
mircea_popescu |
sure. they'll honorably resist |
13:33 |
mircea_popescu |
until the body gives way. |

which is an economic process. |

i suppose i'm not putting enough explicit into this which i know from experience but perhaps alone. there is this thing that happens to a slave, when she's naked |

i'm posting from planet where maxint folks lived and died slaving with considerably less pushing than 'or ants!' |
13:34 |
mircea_popescu |
and i mean, mentally naked, not without clothes, but without any ideology |
13:34 |
mircea_popescu |
she can still fail. |
13:35 |
mircea_popescu |
not because lazy, not because princess in her own head, but simply because there's an end to things. at which point she gets the ants. |
13:35 |
ascii_modem |
ah - that! |
13:35 |
mircea_popescu |
but up until that point... the whole charade had been powered by her trying to deny this. which is substantially what honor is. |

you get to be the first dragon, for lack of notable historical anything. |

there were like.... maaaybe two notable romanians. one was german |

13:49 |

where then |
13:49 |
mircea_popescu |
how did that quote go, "In confronting that which they feared, he had become something else in their eyes...and no longer their champion." |
13:49 |
mircea_popescu |
pete_dushenski there's an equivocation at work tho. |

13:51 |

what next, vlad t. also not romanian !? |
13:52 |
pete_dushenski |
thus is the fluidity of nationality as a concept |
13:52 |
pete_dushenski |
it's there when you need it and tucked away when you don't |
13:52 |
mircea_popescu |
ascii_modem pretty certain he was a basarabi |

which is an ancient pecenegian clan. about as romanian as it gets. |
13:53 |
ascii_modem |
aha |
13:54 |
mircea_popescu |
(pecenegs are a turkic people, migrated in the 500s) |
13:55 |
mircea_popescu |
anyway, what i meant was merely that i don't generally seem very romanian to romanians themselves |
13:55 |
mircea_popescu |
chiefly on the grounds of not subscribing to various idiocies that there as anywhere constitute the spirit of propriety. |
13:56 |
pete_dushenski |
that adverse response by 'the locals' is almost the entrance exam for la serenissima |
13:56 |
mircea_popescu |
best anecdote to illustrate this being, of course, that i had a (us born) woman over, many years ago, and she made some local friends (clueless kids all excioted about this english speaking american woman that knows computers and with nary an idea about the world around them) |

pete_dushenski you gotta appreciate, at least at the time, being romanian was, to romanians, mostly a derogation. |
13:58 |

ie, the first step to establish if some item sucked was, "is it romanian made ?" for if it were... |

14:32 |
pete_dushenski |
"The minimum was chosen so that Bitcoin Core will be able to maintain at least 288 blocks on disk (two days worth of blocks at 10 minutes per block). In rare instances it is possible that the amount of space used will exceed the pruning target in order to keep the required last 288 blocks on disk." << RARE ! |

"Block pruning works during initial sync in the same way as during steady state, by deleting block files “as you go” whenever disk space is allocated. Thus, if the user specifies 550MB, once that level is reached the program will begin deleting the oldest block and undo files, while continuing to download the blockchain." |

Never quite understood the publicity push encouraging people to eat healthy. Who are these magical people that live healthy lives and then die conveniently, without requiring expensive medical treatment? Is it that they must live long lives and pay enough taxes to afford their death, and that those that die earlier are shirking? |
