anyway, the current eulora problem as far as miners are concerned is : there's a single shot very powerful mining tool, which seems like the oinly hope to acquire essential resources choking toolmaking and cooking. since these are in short supply, people are working to make a map of known resources, so as to explore the unknown spots |

i'm thinking i don't know enough about how eulora world works to say much. you mentioned that people are mapping mining locations, but then i tried searching for mushrooms around a location where i found them previously and couldn't find any |

so i'm sure there's some kind of logic there that i don't yet understand |
02:53 |
mircea_popescu |
sure. |
02:54 |
mircea_popescu |
but basically, from a player pov, the economy is elastic enough you can choose. you wish to risk 100 coppers per click, do X. you wish to risk 10k per click, no need to do X 100 times, can just as well do Y. |
02:54 |
mircea_popescu |
whereas in stupid games, it's "faucet X is the biggest, gotta bot this or bust". |
02:55 |
mircea_popescu |
and it has little to dowith bottage, it becomes a time arbitrage - if bots are prevented chinese farms will do it by hand |
02:55 |
phf |
seems like if i wanted to find them, i might as well write a bot that would do random walk, then explore, etc. let it run for a day. though that will cost me in pick quality. hmm |

I struggle to see how cultural relativism, multiculturalism as manisfest in states, offers any sort of couldn't-do-without-benefit to the western civilizational heritage...

what exactly is your choice paradigm to distinguish between these, and why exactly is it that the utah mormons don't bother you but the london muslims do. |
03:44 |
trinque |
that totalitarian thought gets buried deep. |
03:45 |
mircea_popescu |
to not even go into the chinatowns. those people put VINEGAR into their COOKED food, and sugar in things which are not desert. |
03:45 |
ag3nt_zer0 |
because the utah mormans are still under the umbrella of western aeonic development |
03:45 |
mircea_popescu |
this, in romania, is excomunication. |
03:45 |
mircea_popescu |
ahahaha wut. |
03:46 |
chetty |
the difference is the mormons dont try to insist everyone should wear their underwear, the muslims get pretty insistant about burkas |
03:46 |
mircea_popescu |
o really ? |
03:46 |
ag3nt_zer0 |
different peoples just have different ways of doing things... this also means that they have different ways of doing civilization... so that maybe one group can't take the reigns from another without significant hardship and the potential high risk for failure and disaster |
03:47 |
ag3nt_zer0 |
see detroit maybe |

well none of them ever tried to behead me for not listening |
03:47 |
mircea_popescu |
ag3nt_zer0 yeah well if the brits weren't some unvigorous waster cunts, mayb the muslims wouldn't HAVE TO take their country from them |

04:17 |

but anyway.. what is that saying.. a nation can survive anything but treachery from within.. mircea_popescu is right that if you don't want to suffer this, don't be on the losing team.. if muslims ride into battle and rape and kill all the english (or australians) than i guess so be it, only thing i despite more than the muslims are the limp wristed whites |

jurov, true, one could have a max size or max bandwidth even as command line flags with a bit of work. |
11:35 |
funkenstein_ |
i was sorta under the assumption the main purpose was to be present en masse in block relaying network, hence providing some sanity in block verification |
11:36 |
jurov |
and who will relay transactions? |
11:37 |
funkenstein_ |
that is responsibility of tx publisher to get them to a miner |
11:38 |
funkenstein_ |
though plenty of full nodes on real iron still will relay |
11:39 |
funkenstein_ |
tx relaying is strictly philanthropic at the moment if iiuc |
11:39 |
jurov |
so you yourself connect directly to miners and never need tx relaying services? |
11:40 |
funkenstein_ |
for broadcasting a TX today i would recommend blockchain.info, coinb.in.. there are a few others that will get your tx to miners |
| |
↖ |
11:41 |
funkenstein_ |
with increasing use i expect it to get harder and harder |
11:41 |
jurov |
O.o i cant even |
11:42 |

my point is, tx relaying is useful but non-essential |

jurov |
how it is non-essential? |
11:45 |
jurov |
are you using bitcoin at all? |

integrity of blockchain and consensus is essential. How TXs get to miners is not. They could go by pigeon to Luke-JR's kitchen if need be. |

"blockchain is more important than bitcoin" i heard it somewhere |
11:46 |
funkenstein_ |
my argument is bitcoin is more important than TX relaying |
11:47 |
jurov |
and my experience is that having a stable long-running and well-connected node gives me an edge with my transactions propagations |
11:48 |
jurov |
why even running a node otherwise? |
11:49 |
jurov |
lets just submit everything to blockchain.info and verify their blocks and sleep tight |
11:49 |
jurov |
? |
11:49 |
funkenstein_ |
so you can check yourself the coin you receive |
11:50 |

how? pogo will not have wallet nor block explorer |
11:50 |

also, what happens when blockchain.info screws up like recently? how are the tx gonna go to miners? |

'Once a public key has been uploaded, it is difficult to remove. Some users stop using their public keys for various reasons, such as when they forget their pass phrase, or if their private key is compromised or lost. In those cases, it was hard to delete a public key from the server, and even if it were deleted, someone else can upload a fresh copy of the same public key to the server.

oldest tx's get evicted first for newer tx's received? |
15:20 |
ascii_field |
for starters. |
15:21 |
ascii_field |
this is closest to the default behavior (death of whole node) |
15:21 |
mircea_popescu |
so, how about, something like this : 1. pogo acquires max memory to be used for tx pool ; 2. pogo accepts txn into this until full ; 3. pogo calculates per byte value for eacxh accepted txn ; 4. pogo accepts new txn only if their per-byte value constitutes an increase to its pool ; 5. pogo keeps a score on all nodes ir EVER SAW, by IP! as to what txn it sent : -so much for sending unacceptable txn, + so much for sendin |
15:21 |
mircea_popescu |
g accepted txn. then it refuses connectioon to shit nodes. permanently. it still reads from them, but sends nothing. |
15:21 |
ascii_field |
did mircea_popescu just ask for a <=4GB db ? |
15:21 |
mircea_popescu |
this way, our nonstandard behaviour can at least be excused, nodes will continue to peer us for economic reasons, and your dream fo someday someone mining off a pogo may come closer. |
15:22 |
mircea_popescu |
ascii_field nothing wrong with keeping a finite ip db and flushing the lowest entries as needed, just like iptables works. |
15:24 |
mircea_popescu |
ideally the -so much, +so much and min_node_value are to be set in config file by user. |
15:24 |

15:25 |
ascii_field |
mircea_popescu: briefly describe hypothesis re: why an evict-oldest mempool node would end up isolated |
15:26 |
mircea_popescu |
because you present an arbitrary fraction of the current mempool, there is no incentive for anyone to peer you. |
15:26 |
mircea_popescu |
you may either present : a) the whole mempool (current best behaviour) or b) a selected fraction (hopefully future best behaviour) |
15:26 |
ascii_field |
this is different from 'isolated.' isolated would mean that extant nodes auto-drop you |
15:27 |
ascii_field |
'no incentive' for most of the network participants to do what they are doing - is the current situation. |
15:27 |
mircea_popescu |
i didn't mean that isolated. i just meant, "and it never amounted to anything" isolated |

maybe if obama promises to pay eternal tribute to the caliphate, isis won't wipe his face in his own vomit. |

iran and the saudis are active in the region and may crush them yet |

out of sheer self-interest and to return the balance of power to as it was |

i dun seriously think that the saudis are ruthless enough nor rich enough to win this contest |
18:32 |
trinque |
and ISIS is rich enough? |
18:32 |
trinque |
how many oil fields do they have now? |
18:32 |
pete_dushenski |
a couple anyways. |
18:33 |
pete_dushenski |
but isis has a sufficiently powerful 'why' that their soldiers are cheap and oh so very cut throat |
18:33 |
trinque |
this much is true, yet |

18:33 |
trinque |
no isis yet boss |
18:33 |
trinque |
just a lovely landscape |
18:34 |
trinque |
among other things I think whatever successes ISIS has had reflect that nobody really wants to have Iraq or Syria be their problem |
18:34 |
pete_dushenski |
and why should the middle east be anyone's problem other than that of the middle easterners ? |
18:35 |
trinque |
I am talking about middle eastern powers |
18:35 |
trinque |
I am not a scholar on the subject, but it seems as an outsider that the major factors are Saudi, Iran and Israel |
18:36 |
trinque |
those seem to be perpetually beating war drums against eachother; perhaps ISIS is a complicating factor in that situation which none want to approach lest they unbalance the former |
18:36 |

it's incredibly, almost impossibly expensive to fight against an opponent as ideologically driven as isis (or b, tmsr~) |

however, trying to dislodge them in an occupation war is another matter |
18:39 |
trinque |
right |
18:39 |
pete_dushenski |
aha, again, the expense of occupation of syria/lebanon is more than any soi-dissant 'world power' can seem to muster. |
18:39 |
decimation |
yes, agreed |
18:40 |
decimation |
mainly because nobody can convince themselves to give enough of a shit |
18:40 |
pete_dushenski |
so battles can be won against isis, wars will be lost. |
18:40 |
trinque |
it's reasonable to say that the appetite for total war in the west... ^ |
18:40 |
trinque |
right |
18:40 |
decimation |
yes, isis is much too young to expand beyond iraq/syria |
18:40 |
decimation |
in 30 years after their rule is solidified... |
18:41 |
trinque |
if what's said about their regressiveness regarding science is true, they're not going to amount to anything |
18:41 |
pete_dushenski |
it won't take a generation if the saudi's run out of oil money |
18:41 |
decimation |
aye, true |
18:41 |
trinque |
they're going to what, shout about allah and shoot hand-me-down russian weapons? |
18:42 |
trinque |
and the force of their will alone will overcome? |
18:42 |
trinque |
I don't buy it at all |
18:42 |
pete_dushenski |
trinque well, the west's 'science' is a largely (if not entirely) a lot of fluff 'epidemiology' |
18:42 |
trinque |
they're a nuisance and if they become anything more they'll all be killed |
18:42 |
trinque |
pete_dushenski: that has little to do with them ignoring the subject entirely |
18:42 |
trinque |
I bet central americans had a great deal of "will" too |
18:43 |
pete_dushenski |
i see them as being quite related, if throwing out the baby with the bathwater. |
18:43 |
pete_dushenski |
trinque sorry, you're saying that isis is a nuisance that'll be wiped out if they get too uppity ?? |
18:43 |
trinque |
I am indeed. |
18:44 |
decimation |
it's political suicide in the us to commit to another full-scale middle east war, which is what is giving isis breathing room |
18:44 |
pete_dushenski |
hm. i don't underestimate them to the same degree. |
18:44 |
trinque |
pete_dushenski: I could very well see something 20 years down the line that's much different |
18:44 |
trinque |
but it would require them getting that far |
18:45 |
pete_dushenski |
isis will continue to grow, because that's what lifeforms do : they grow. |
18:45 |
trinque |
they also go extinct |
18:45 |
pete_dushenski |
so it'll start with syria/lebanon and keep going |
18:45 |
trinque |
one might speculate it will; we'll see |
18:45 |
pete_dushenski |
to saudi arabia, yemen, egypt, etc. |
18:45 |
decimation |
maybe, but if this happens it probably won't be through open battle |
18:46 |
pete_dushenski |
decimation i'm with you there. |
18:46 |
pete_dushenski |
if isis is undone, it'll be from 'multicultural' technology |
18:46 |
pete_dushenski |
from the inside out. |
18:46 |
pete_dushenski |
i don't see an external player that has the means or the will to take them down. they're no wimpy upstart. isis means business. |
18:47 |
trinque |
sure, and their ideology is based on magical thinking |
18:47 |
pete_dushenski |
as all populist ideologies must be. |
18:47 |
pete_dushenski |
hell, even the 'elite' ideologies can fall victim to dreams. |
18:48 |
trinque |
let me put it this way: if something doesn't come along that could squash an ISIS in a moment, that's on us. |
18:48 |
trinque |
they're primitive morons with weapons somebody else's war machine manufactured |
18:48 |
trinque |
sitting on oil wells they didn't drill |
18:49 |
pete_dushenski |
so what, bitcoin made the computers, chips, and internet infrastructure that it's taking over the world with ? |
18:49 |
pete_dushenski |
we're all sitting on 5-10 year old hardware. idjits would readily call this 'primitive' |
18:49 |
trinque |
I do not see the equivalence at all |
18:49 |
pete_dushenski |
what you want 'advanced' weapons like nukes ? |
18:50 |
trinque |
isis is a cargo cult thinking allah will bring them more russian or american weapons if they piss in the wind some more |
18:50 |
trinque |
they will never make anything themselves |
18:50 |
decimation |
tribalism is in the bones over there, I find it unlikely that a political entity could centralize power effectively |
18:50 |
pete_dushenski |
trinque the equivalence is in the disruptive potential |

as for bitcoin, one *would* hope those working within it do understand the mechanics of the technology involved |

pete_dushenski: of what |
18:51 |
trinque |
on ISIS' side |
18:51 |
trinque |
there's nothing novel or interesting about their ideology |
18:51 |
pete_dushenski |
the nation states of the middle east as we know/knew them. |
18:51 |
trinque |
mongols they are not |
18:51 |
trinque |
they're not going to build a working empire when they're done |
18:52 |
pete_dushenski |
doesn't appear to me that they're trying to build an 'empire' in the centralised sense of the term |
18:53 |
pete_dushenski |
decimation perhaps not. though if you spill enough blood... |
18:53 |
phf |
ben_vulpes: eventually, aha. i'm not even sure yet that i can repeat the process. for example part of build process is a script that chooses between gcc-4.6 and clang based on whether it's .c or .mm. the fact that the result links i think is a miracle |
18:53 |
pete_dushenski |
trinque i mean hey, if isis were going the centralised route, don't you think they'd have a king or ruler already ? |
18:54 |
trinque |
they've got that baghdadi guy |

asciilifeform: do you still consider the bitcoin-p option as viable? |
23:08 |
asciilifeform |
ag3nt_zer0: it wasn't especially viable then. and after adoption as official usg policy in a mildly perverted form, i can't think of who might voluntarily work with such a thing today |
23:08 |

other than the moles |
23:08 |

i certainly have no interest in it now. |
