00:14 asciilifeform it was the only way i could think of to nail down the lineage from virginal tinyscheme to shiva !1

00:19 asciilifeform what else is secretly not-cheap, officially, that i had nfi about? ? toiler paper?
00:19 * BingoBoingo prolly going to pick up dead tree SICP in the next month or so
00:19 asciilifeform mod6: if it was not made from my patches directly, it is possible that you have a mistake.
00:19 pete_dushenski myea, i don't think we go through $1/day of diapers
00:20 pete_dushenski maybe $2. tops.
00:20 mod6 yeah, i dunno, i got the same problem again just now.

09:28 polarbeard all right

09:29 mircea_popescu BingoBoingo for the record, the one most important factor in how long they wait to shoot should be and probably is "how weird this shit is".
09:29 mircea_popescu as in they'd prolly shoot aliens even faster. so in this sense, the study's useless without looking at what environment those guys operate in.
09:30 mircea_popescu BingoBoingo eh it's unclear whether that can be done just yet or not. whole different kettle of soup.

09:56 mircea_popescu because if i want to search my logs ima have to use your flags.
09:56 mircea_popescu and they are MY logs.
09:56 polarbeard propose a change?
09:56 mircea_popescu well we're not there yet, so far just asking how you designed it / how you selected the list etc.
09:57 polarbeard oh, three chars were long enough to identify each label, while being short enough to not add many dead bytes to the log
09:57 mircea_popescu yes but which flags are used for which kind of messages, how we select the kinds, that sorta thing

09:59 mircea_popescu it's an important point, must be documented well.

10:04 phf that works
10:05 mircea_popescu now lemme see how the fuck i get this ns'd.
10:05 mircea_popescu phf set up an A record, should do the trick, hopefully.
10:12 mircea_popescu polarbeard i see.
10:13 mircea_popescu and these are prefixed by I W or A for info warn or alert ?
10:13 mircea_popescu waht is "SINF" by this logic ?
10:13 polarbeard SINF -> info, SWAR -> warn, SERR -> err
10:14 polarbeard *error
10:15 mircea_popescu i c!
10:16 mircea_popescu anyway, as a general comment : next time start the whole process by designing this. it's a great spot to start!

10:52 Tasoshi what I find surprising is that the propaganda video has any persuasive power when it visually shows its settlement system as being very centralised - that is many people connecting to 1 hub/bank...

10:53 mircea_popescu they ran out of reddit or something ?
10:54 ascii_butugychag mircea_popescu: what's your objection to throw runtime_error ?
10:54 BingoBoingo Prolly ran out of reddit
10:55 mircea_popescu ascii_butugychag i didn't object to it in principle, but it's also not covered by the new logging model.
10:55 mircea_popescu i do object to return ret; in principle.
10:55 polarbeard mircea_popescu: I didn't know it was expected to solve it, but ok, I see this patch is consuming too much time from everybody...
10:55 ascii_butugychag mircea_popescu: what new logging model
10:56 mircea_popescu polarbeard i dunno that it was expected to either. prolly isn't, really. just, bitcoin code is too layered, random and messy.
10:56 mircea_popescu ascii_butugychag lemme summarize this for you. bitcoin eminently keeps shitty logs. a new guy came in and undertood the monstrous task of trying to fix that.
10:57 mircea_popescu this has on one side exposed a lot of the underlying grime, and on the other side is bugging your centralist mind because you don't want to read thousands of lines of patchwork.
10:57 polarbeard to be honest, I see this thing going forward if I don't have to generate a new patch again
10:57 mircea_popescu nevertheless : the grime's still there, and bitcoin would do a lot better with a better logging system
10:57 ascii_butugychag the ~original~ grime is only cleanable at tremendous cost.
10:57 polarbeard so if I can add another patch on top of these I will keep working on it but I'm tired of rediffing...
10:57 ascii_butugychag and really oughta be lisped.
10:57 mircea_popescu polarbeard aha.
10:58 mircea_popescu ascii_butugychag yeah well.
10:58 ascii_butugychag shiva hooks on everything, and programmable log mechanism in ~that~.
10:58 mircea_popescu understand : you can't prevent people from working nor should you try.
10:58 ascii_butugychag i in particular can't prevent anybody from doing anything.
10:58 ascii_butugychag but will pronounce - 'this is braindamaged and i will not sign.'
10:59 ascii_butugychag fwiw.

11:00 phf can imagine future where ascii big trb senator is forced by opposition forces to sign, "i will not siiiign"
11:00 mircea_popescu hehehe. thanks god we are better than that stupid shit.
11:00 mircea_popescu "FOR SIIIIGNLET!!!!"
11:00 ascii_butugychag l0l!z
11:00 mircea_popescu ascii_butugychag it's my recollection you can apply it on an endless pile of data, neh ?
11:01 ascii_butugychag also keccak has same problem as predecessor, silicon will be baked, we get mining cartels again.
11:01 mircea_popescu you gotta read carefully.
11:01 mircea_popescu CAREFULLY.
11:01 ascii_butugychag mircea_popescu: you can apply ~any~ hash to endless pile
11:01 * ascii_butugychag goes, reads, again
11:04 BingoBoingo !up ascii_butugychag
11:05 ascii_butugychag mircea_popescu: i still don't grasp the 'technological reasons' from footnote v
11:06 mircea_popescu ascii_butugychag is asic going to store the whole chain ?
11:06 ascii_butugychag it can be in a drive.
11:06 mircea_popescu can that drive seek 300k specific bytes on demand ?
11:07 mircea_popescu if you have a drive that seeks and also updates, why not have a cpu ?
11:07 mircea_popescu the only reason asics exist is because sha256 you can do by hand on paper.
11:07 ascii_butugychag i also vaguely recall ^this aspect being appealing to mircea_popescu ?
11:07 ascii_butugychag (slavecoin!)
11:08 mircea_popescu yes there's some economy of scale to be had with well designed flash banks, made each the size of a block etc.
11:08 mircea_popescu but that also means block size gets BAKED IN SILICONE
11:08 mircea_popescu so whatever new value we agree upon, it's fixed.
11:08 ascii_butugychag might bring exotical like holo storage out of the circus and into actual production
11:08 ascii_butugychag *exotica
11:08 mircea_popescu aha.
11:08 mircea_popescu obviously there's no insurance against future technology.
11:08 punkman why not 1tb of ram?
11:08 ascii_butugychag and how is block size any more fixed in the proposed scheme than in the old ?
11:09 mircea_popescu but on the basis of what we currently known, a strict coupling there (4 or less bits of shift) is untractable
11:09 ascii_butugychag in either case, if changed - fork
11:09 mircea_popescu ascii_butugychag different incentives. as it is now, changing the size doesn't automatically brick all miners.
11:09 ascii_butugychag and i can easily go buy 1tb of ram whenever, as can anybody
11:09 mircea_popescu this is an oversight. they want a change, fine, but they must fully commit to it.
11:09 mircea_popescu 1tb of ram will be overwhelmed by 20mb blocks in a few years.
11:10 mircea_popescu moreover, you still need all the accesses.
11:10 mircea_popescu the ~only way to do this in silicone is to make blocksized banks and line them up.
11:10 mircea_popescu this will be done eventually, as the article says. but not without its costs.
11:12 punkman mutating the merkle root just needs some sha256 hashing though
11:12 mircea_popescu sure.
11:12 mircea_popescu but is also finite.
11:12 punkman is not
11:12 mircea_popescu how do you mean ?
11:13 ascii_butugychag 20mb blocks?!
11:13 punkman you just put the nonce in coinbase, isn't it equivalent to mutating the actual nonce?
11:14 ascii_butugychag and what is so great about miners == nodes ?

11:14 ascii_butugychag where there are a dozen nodes, forever.
11:14 mircea_popescu ascii_butugychag what do you mean ?
11:14 punkman you can encode that nonce in standard coinbase outputs
11:14 ascii_butugychag mircea_popescu: centralization
11:14 mircea_popescu punkman yes, but costs money and takes time.
11:15 mircea_popescu ascii_butugychag can you be explicit for crying out loud.
11:15 ascii_butugychag right now we have gangrene in one leg. what is an improvement about having ~two~ ?
11:15 mircea_popescu what's a word gonna do.
11:15 punkman mircea_popescu: orders of magnitude cheaper than recalculating nonce+digest
11:15 ascii_butugychag requiring elaborate hardware to mine adds to, rather than takes away from, centralization.
11:15 jurov trinque: deedbot.org says "Last updated 2016-01-27"
11:16 ascii_butugychag and the ssd cartel is cackling as we speak, reading this
11:16 mircea_popescu ascii_butugychag this is a general principle that works generally.
11:16 ascii_butugychag suddenly ssd is plutonium.
11:16 ascii_butugychag fuck that
11:16 mircea_popescu ssd is A LOT easier to make than fucking asics.
11:16 ascii_butugychag mno.
11:16 ascii_butugychag this is demonstrably untrue.
11:17 ascii_butugychag 'btc asic' is really 1980s-level vlsi.
11:17 mircea_popescu punkman not really. for one thing, now it's finite.
11:17 mircea_popescu that's no demonstration of anything.
11:17 ascii_butugychag and south kr, usg muppet, owns ~100% of ssd fabrication.
11:17 ascii_butugychag thinkaboutit
11:18 ascii_butugychag they have a stranglehold
11:18 mircea_popescu this is like saying russia makes all mop buckets and so they have a stranglehold.
11:18 mircea_popescu and ukrainian whores have a stranglehold on german streetwalking.
11:18 mircea_popescu yeah, i'm sure they do. why ?
11:19 ascii_butugychag realize that cn would profit tremendously from making own ssd
11:19 ascii_butugychag and still has not.
11:19 mircea_popescu because it's the easiest thing to do and they're entry level.
11:19 ascii_butugychag because it is not a fucking mop bucket
11:19 mircea_popescu heh.
11:19 ascii_butugychag it is something that ONE country has any kind of reasonable tooling to make.
11:19 trinque jurov: btcd is choking on the transaction representing felipelalli's deed; I've been looking at it
11:19 mircea_popescu anyway. this adds the "need chinese foundries" to "need sk sdd" for maximal ,ulz.
11:19 trinque perhaps it is a matter of the key generated being invalid, though I would've expected the bits I'm using for pubkey/address generation to barf at that, and didn't
11:20 mircea_popescu trinque maybe it's high s :D
11:20 trinque meanwhile the trb node is now at 383k, thanks to new SSD
11:20 ascii_butugychag mircea_popescu: why not, while you're at it, premine 100% of the coins and just hand them to seoul.
11:20 ascii_butugychag same effect.
11:20 mircea_popescu ascii_butugychag anyway, the only thign this does is that if implemented, you could alter dulap code slightly and produce usable digest blocks for sale to pay for the node.
11:20 ascii_butugychag for sale to whom ?
11:20 mircea_popescu miners.
11:20 ascii_butugychag who wants this, for what ?
11:21 mircea_popescu miners need to know that nonces x to x' are ok to mine with digest Z
11:21 mircea_popescu and you have a cpu and a hdd, and can just produce this information.
11:21 ascii_butugychag i think i have a stronger chance of flying to mircea_popescu's house on a glider powered by my own farts, than for this to so much as budge the schelling point from bitcoin by so much as a nanometre.
11:21 mircea_popescu and it'll be way the fuck cheaper for them to buy it from you than for them to bake a cpu and hdd into the 80s era vlsi.
11:21 ascii_butugychag why would anyone value this, for anything ?
11:22 mircea_popescu for the obvious reason.
11:22 mircea_popescu it heals the node-miner breach.
11:23 ascii_butugychag i get that miners without nodes are retarded, but that is easily fixed just by requiring whole-block hash in the nonce rather than the idiot header system
11:23 ascii_butugychag and nukes pools, at the same time
11:23 mircea_popescu (they way this is likely going to be asic'd is by keeping rainbow tables, and just adding octets. nevertheless - this STILL requires the whole chain be preserved. even if in a diff format)
11:23 ascii_butugychag what i don't get is what desirable thing the workfunction change accomplishes
11:23 mircea_popescu how is this a workfunction change ?
11:24 ascii_butugychag attempt at 'i/o-hard' workfunction
11:24 mircea_popescu i mean. how is this more or different of a workfunction change.
11:24 mircea_popescu nah, it's just making sure people actually have the chain. all of it.

11:25 mircea_popescu punkman probably. unless you keep a table of historical chain by nonces.
11:27 mircea_popescu with an unshifted nonce, this is ~impossible, of course, you're not keeping maxint times 200kb+ entries.

11:28 mircea_popescu as long as that delivers this, i see no problem.
11:28 punkman BingoBoingo: dunno, wasn't that interesting in retrospect

11:31 adlai punkman: right-shifting the nonce bits by N to make the hashed data update every 2^N blocks
11:31 ascii_butugychag mircea_popescu: you know full well that this is false.
11:31 mircea_popescu yes, but you also know what i mean.
11:31 ascii_butugychag cpp is braindamaged and is the reason why winblows is what it is.
11:32 ascii_butugychag c is braindamaged and is the reason unix is braindamaged.

11:32 adlai ascii_butugychag: what did you mean by "requiring whole-block hash in the nonce"?
11:32 ascii_butugychag at the root of both, is the fact that anything produced by 'coderz' is braindamaged.
11:32 ascii_butugychag adlai: it means no pools. ever.
11:32 ascii_butugychag anyone who mines has a full change of catching a block.
11:33 ascii_butugychag *chance
11:33 ascii_butugychag of
11:33 mircea_popescu man you're being very unhelpful here.
11:33 mircea_popescu wouldja simmer down and speak explicitly ? these are the logs!
11:33 mircea_popescu they last forever!
11:33 adlai i didn't ask what the implications are, or why, i'm asking what exactly your proposal is, implementation-wise
11:33 ascii_butugychag adlai: are you familiar with how mining presently works ?
11:33 ascii_butugychag and why pools are possible ?
11:33 * adlai has not build his own ASICs
11:33 adlai yes.
11:33 mircea_popescu still nhot explicit.
11:34 mircea_popescu "do you know that currently, all a miner needs is to know the header of the previous block to mine" "yes"
11:34 punkman not the previous block
11:35 mircea_popescu the wunderbar advantages of being explicit! others have something to talk to!
11:35 mircea_popescu !up ascii_butugychag
11:36 ascii_butugychag ok i see what mircea_popescu meant
11:36 adlai i just want to understand what ascii_butugychag suggested there, instead of each block header including the previous header's hash. i probably got thrown off by the word "nonce" leaking in there
11:36 ascii_butugychag !s non-outsourceable
11:36 assbot 6 results for 'non-outsourceable' : http://s.b-a.link/?q=non-outsourceable
11:36 ascii_butugychag ^ there is more than one way of accomplishing this effect
11:36 mircea_popescu see, i suspect ascii_butugychag this is the major contradiction here. your idea of safety is to make it non-outsourceable, but i suspect it'd be both better and safer to make it FAIRLY outsourceable.

11:37 ascii_butugychag why?
11:37 mircea_popescu currently the problem appears to be "it being outsourceable", but really, the problem is that only blind outsourcing can be done.
11:37 mircea_popescu why. because that's how the whole world was built. and how it works when it works.

11:38 mircea_popescu ascii_butugychag yes but the solution is not to kill all the sheep.
11:38 mircea_popescu make a fair environment for them. if they die, fine.
11:38 ascii_butugychag why not ?
11:38 mircea_popescu cuz cheaper plus you get to date the hottest sheeps.
11:39 ascii_butugychag the more i think about it, the more it seems to me that mining is a catastrophic bug per se
11:39 mircea_popescu yes. but to quote a great man,
11:39 mircea_popescu so is the carnot cycle.
11:40 ascii_butugychag introduces exactly the wrong incentives, and empowers the folks you least want in the driver's seat
11:40 ascii_butugychag it remains to be shown that, like carnot cycle, mining cannot be escaped from.
11:40 mircea_popescu fortunate that miners aren't in the driver's seat
11:41 mircea_popescu anyway. heaven is built atop hell also. been doing fine.

14:01 mod6 hey ascii_butugychag, so i figured out what my dumbass did yesterday. somehow, when looking at your fix patch - I missed the portion where you changed main.cpp altogether.
14:01 mod6 probably was just going to fast.
14:03 mod6 anyway, i created a new patch for PVS and did a regrind on malleus (since this one depends on main.cpp)

14:13 mod6 thanks trinque
14:13 trinque yw
14:13 phf polarbeard: it's not correct, since the graph is supposed to only show transitions, rather then descendants/antecedents. in this case polarbeard_better_log_messages touches util.h and util.cpp that are modified in polarbeard_remove_shrink_debug_file
14:13 ascii_butugychag ty trinque. mod6: it looks fine
14:13 ascii_butugychag i still think regrinds are a thing to be avoided whenever possible, but whatever
14:14 phf in other words there might be an antecedent, but there's also other hunks in that file that should've prevented the linkage
14:14 ascii_butugychag phf: your viewer is mighty spiffy, it is exactly what i wanted to make in september (and never had time)
14:15 ascii_butugychag if it were given a place to pump in patches, we could finally give turdatron a proper burial
14:15 mod6 ascii_butugychag: one fix every now and then isn't horrible or anything, id just hate to see the situation (like at usg-like job) where people create a turd, create a PR, and then have to keep chainging the PR until "ready"
14:16 mod6 and a similar situation in V would be like 69 patches to patch the original patch.
14:17 ascii_butugychag mod6: i found myself blowing the very tiny time budget i had, on regrinding
14:17 ascii_butugychag and imho it is quite unnecessary
14:17 ascii_butugychag and now, e.g., shiva is hosed, imho needlessly, and will have to be reground

14:23 phf ascii_butugychag: thanks!
14:23 phf polarbeard: you can't press polarbeard_better_log_messages directly on top of asciilifeform_maxint_locks_corrected period. so the ~transition~ makes no sense

15:04 thestringpuller ascii_butugychag: Got into argument with netsec team leader at work.
15:05 thestringpuller told him of cardano, and was like "well how are you going to trust cardano", to which I replied with the parable of soldier maintaining own AK-47
15:05 thestringpuller and for some reason didn't understand...
15:06 ascii_butugychag next time try & have the argument with a literate man, who can grasp how, e.g., flashlight works
15:06 ascii_butugychag having it with somebody who understands nothing of how his civilization is put together, to whom flashlight, pc, boeing, are equally magical - is a snore.
15:07 thestringpuller yes, but these people get put in charge of sekuriteee and it makes me wonder "how?"
15:07 thestringpuller "Do you not understand how a web of trust functions, or why?"
15:08 thestringpuller Isn't this fundamental to achieving some sort of ~actual~ security?
15:08 ascii_butugychag the trick here is that the proposition that you could actually understand a device that you own, is a hard sell to a great many folks
15:09 thestringpuller those folks usually would accidentally drink rat poison if it was "accidentally" labeled wine
15:09 thestringpuller since they don't like to read.
15:09 ascii_butugychag and folks who cannot, or will not, attempt said understanding, will have to find themselves a priest, yes.
15:10 thestringpuller trust the priest until he diddles your son during sunday school?
15:10 ascii_butugychag aha.
15:10 shinohai ^
15:10 ascii_butugychag let's put it this way, they have priests already, and the latter are spinning the flock on their cocks like propellers.
15:11 ascii_butugychag and ~nobody seems to mind.
15:12 thestringpuller reminds of allegory of the cave. if all you know is being priest cock, why would you think something else exist.

15:14 thestringpuller the rule of thumb "fits in head" helps with the notion of owning device which when understood could "fit in head".
15:15 thestringpuller problem arises when people can barely fit 3 bits in head before wandering off.

16:23 BingoBoingo !up ascii_butugychag
16:24 ascii_butugychag i must agree with the rando commenter, i have nfi why anybody would 'buy from nodes'
16:24 PeterL people who want to do lightweight / trimmed blockchain would not like the proposal
16:24 assbot [MPEX] [S.MPOE] 14000 @ 0.00056893 = 7.965 BTC [+]
16:26 PeterL seems like it would be easier to run your own node for your minerfarm than to buy from other people?
16:27 ascii_butugychag aha, seems like a 'let's rent out space inside my nose' situation
16:27 ascii_butugychag (to borrow a mircea_popescuism)
16:28 PeterL I guess instead of having one pool doing block hashing, you would have two pools connected, one doing the block hashing and one doing the bitmap hashing?
16:30 PeterL pay-per-nonce?
16:30 mircea_popescu PeterL there's a selection of different people there but ok.
16:31 mircea_popescu ascii_butugychag then read my response :D
16:31 mircea_popescu or just graph the demand curve for digests in units of time delta block finds in your head and see.
16:31 PeterL so then people who have full nodes are the front half of the mining pool, and the back half remains about what it is now
16:32 mircea_popescu PeterL nobody who wants a bitcoin-without-the-bitcoin thing would like that proposal. that's fundamentally why it's there, to readily distinguish people seeking to help from people seeking to help us hang ourselves.
16:33 mircea_popescu anyway, the shifting decides that. if you make the shifting very low, mining as an activity seen today disappears altogether - the digest is much more expensive than the hashing.
16:33 mircea_popescu so you'll just mine on server farms.
16:34 PeterL is mining on server farms better than mining on asics?
16:34 ascii_butugychag actually i must disagree with one point - general-purpose, e.g., x86, cpu, is full of so much crud that asicization is economical and quite inevitable
16:34 mircea_popescu well... it is "closer to the origianl vision" at any rate.
16:34 ascii_butugychag nobody needs that tlb cache
16:35 mircea_popescu ascii_butugychag do you see the side benefit to this happening ?
16:35 ascii_butugychag nobody needs the idiot 'acceleration' opcodes
16:35 ascii_butugychag etc
16:35 mircea_popescu "everything seems ripe for the picking to the man with a good pickaxe"
16:35 ascii_butugychag just pointing out that 80-90% of an x86 die is there because winblowz, really
16:35 ascii_butugychag and helps not at all in actual computation.
16:35 mircea_popescu if that were to happen because we made it happen i'd be so happy.
16:36 mircea_popescu what, finally can buy a sane cpu because bitcoin miners ?
16:36 mircea_popescu yay bitcoin miners!
16:36 ascii_butugychag nah it won't be sane
16:36 ascii_butugychag it'll be like today's hash asic.
16:36 ascii_butugychag just with nand flash bus.
16:36 mircea_popescu step in right direction anyway.
16:36 ascii_butugychag i don't see how
16:36 mircea_popescu you don't see how it's a step or how it's the right direction ?
16:36 ascii_butugychag other than the basic fact of it being a caltrop against folks who want to 'lose' the blockchain, i mean
16:37 ascii_butugychag that part i get, and quite like
16:37 ascii_butugychag but in re: silicon specifically
16:37 mircea_popescu it will also be proof that in point of fact 80% of cpu could go away.
16:37 mircea_popescu this is valuable.
16:37 ascii_butugychag wouldn't prove anything re: 'it could go away' in re: ~workstation~
16:37 mircea_popescu on that expertise, and more importantly on those suddenly opened eyes, more good stuff can be built.
16:37 ascii_butugychag any more than today's dsp proves it
16:37 mircea_popescu i believe differently.

17:14 mircea_popescu well yeah.
17:15 ascii_butugychag incidentally, does this actually incentivize storing the blocks? or only the rainbow table!
17:15 mircea_popescu doesn't matter, they're homomorphisms.

17:56 jurov so I imageine it's the same with hybrids
17:57 mircea_popescu hybrids are one of those "maybe when it grows up" techs.

17:59 BingoBoingo pete_dushenski: Avoid SSD's which seem inexpensve for their capacity
18:00 BingoBoingo SSD market pretty much consists on Samsung, Intel, and other firms that just use surplus parts from samsung
18:01 jurov "Comming soon, custom memory allocator!" :B
18:01 ascii_butugychag hybrid is guaranteed not to help a node.
18:01 ascii_butugychag because node is a random access affair.
18:01 ascii_butugychag the ~locality~ is small.
18:01 jurov i disagree
18:01 pete_dushenski ok. now any idea why ssd's are all 2.5" ?
18:01 ascii_butugychag not so
18:02 ascii_butugychag plenty of 'msata' etc

18:02 jurov after syncing i have moved older half of blockXXX.dat on spinning rust and it did not access them very often
18:02 pete_dushenski ascii_butugychag: mkay. i just need to dig more then
18:02 ascii_butugychag and if pete_dushenski is really asking why there are no 3.5" ones, it is for same reason as why not 5.25
18:02 ascii_butugychag because wtf
18:03 ascii_butugychag jurov: that was because ~nobody is actually setting up new nodes
18:03 ascii_butugychag or moving old coin
18:03 jurov but feeding new nodes is not random-access affair. spending old coin, now that's something else
18:04 jurov but if it was not spent often so far, i hardly expect that to change
18:04 * ascii_butugychag still thinks that blockchain mask rom ought to be a product
18:05 ascii_butugychag why the fuck provision for rewriting bits that will ~never~ be rewritten.
18:05 ascii_butugychag mask rom is approximately indestructible, costs precious little to make, uses minimal current, etc
18:05 jurov so? burn the old half to bd-r. checkbox marked.
18:05 ascii_butugychag slow
18:05 ascii_butugychag and now you're ddosable.
18:06 ascii_butugychag (when it becomes known that asking for old blocks makes you spin a motor)
18:06 jurov ha! let the enemy start moving his precious pre-2011 coinz
18:06 ascii_butugychag he doesn't need to actually move'em
18:06 ascii_butugychag just pretend to
18:06 ascii_butugychag you ~will~ have to load the blocks
18:06 ascii_butugychag (to see that his tx is invalid)
18:07 jurov that will be stopped by index which stays on ssd
18:07 ascii_butugychag how does this help ?
18:07 ascii_butugychag index just ends up telling you to fetch the ancient block.
18:08 ascii_butugychag bitcoin as presently conceived requires random access.
18:09 jurov ok. anyway, should be not hard to have a bit in the index saying tx has all otutputs spent with 1000... confirmations
18:11 * ascii_butugychag bbl
18:11 jurov (but yes that's HARD, i believe electrum does this and it makes full sync almost impractical even on ssd)
18:17 mircea_popescu ascii_butugychag> why the fuck provision for rewriting bits that will ~never~ be rewritten. <<< ironically, cheaper to save on hdd than on the mask rom. yet.
18:17 mircea_popescu but yes, this is a point.

18:24 pete_dushenski BingoBoingo: mhm. can use mounting bracket too if you don't feel like taping it on. i guess the 2.5" size meets the 90% of buyers using it for laptops and the 10% of buyers using it for desktops aren't excluded either.
18:24 BingoBoingo Many of them will include the bracket in the retail box
18:24 * pete_dushenski is a hdd/sdd buying noob
18:25 * danielpbarron too
18:25 danielpbarron and this line of questioning interests me; i've been meaning to get one of those things too
18:25 danielpbarron or more than one; does it make sense to make a raid? and for that matter what's the right thing to buy for that?
18:26 danielpbarron i've got this nice beefy workstation but i'm still using my 10 year old hard drives
18:26 BingoBoingo Kinda makes sense to do raid 1 for redundancy and faster reads
18:26 mircea_popescu depends what you wanna do. raid 1 works well for security ; raid 0 for speed
18:27 danielpbarron i mean hardware controller; i think i recall reading asciilifeform saying hardware is only way to raid
18:27 gernika I have raid 1 (hardware) going with 2 ssds

19:52 asciilifeform where i live, it is an 'old man game'
19:53 pete_dushenski it's quite popular here with all ages. my theory is that it has a similar swing plane to hockey, which is the ~most~ popular, and works well as a seasonal alternate.
19:54 pete_dushenski though most take it up in their 20s and 30s because they're a) bored and need the frustration, and b) need to play for 'business' reasons on account of many alrger firms having annual tournaments.

20:31 asciilifeform quoted for the logz:
20:31 asciilifeform 'From the court filing for his recent arrest it looks like this was a fairly clever trap set for Bridges. There's a reference in the last paragraph of the filing to a still-sealed warrant for Bridges' arrest. Apparently they got this sealed warrant issued BEFORE they released him, then let him out for the occasionally-offered "time to tidy up your affairs" post-sentencing/pre-incarceration. This isn't too unusual, but ONLY for
20:31 asciilifeform convicts with near-zero flight risk. So it's very very strange they offered this to Bridges, and he's an idiot for not wondering WTF was up. Anyways, looks like he fell into the trap. Now they've got him back as well as all the goodies in his "go bag". I'm guessing that "go bag" was the point of the whole excercise.'
20:34 mod6 asciilifeform: cool with you if i send those re-worked patches to the ML?

21:03 mod6 it should do what these guys were talking about before, just press up to level where key you trust has signed.

21:07 mod6 genesis.vpatch (asciilifeform, mircea_popescu, mod6, trinque)
21:07 jurov ok i get it, it's using other people sigs
21:08 mircea_popescu mod6 vaguely unrelated points. the owner's death guarantees a key with an expiration date will expire ; it also guarantees the trust for it needn't ever be updated - dead men tell no lies.
21:08 mircea_popescu consequently the expiration date makes no sense whatsoever.
21:08 mircea_popescu take chetty's key. if it expires tomorrow, what does that change exactly ?
21:08 mod6 nada.
21:09 mircea_popescu so basically key expiration as a concept is broken, in that it induces a wrinkle between phenomena and representation.
21:09 mod6 in the case of v, if she had created a patch, and she was the only one who signed it and her key expired tomorrow, well, someone better grok it and sign it who's in the current lordship
21:09 mircea_popescu or else simply ignore key expirations forever.
21:10 mod6 ya
21:10 mircea_popescu jesus' key also expired.
21:10 mod6 i didn't know he was a crypto guy

21:11 jurov that's not catholic doctrine
21:11 mircea_popescu jurov hm ?
21:12 jurov catholic is that truth is what living Pope signs.
21:12 mircea_popescu because peter, because jesus.
21:12 mircea_popescu there's a filiation there.
21:12 jurov and there were two popes and whatnot
21:12 mircea_popescu not as per doctrine :)
21:13 mircea_popescu that is lay history!
21:13 mircea_popescu anyway, throwaway point, lettuce move on.
21:14 jurov i just happened to stumble upon it cuz vulpes' test data has only one - alf's signature per patch
21:15 mod6 you know, im pretty sure that my v ignores expired keys.
21:15 jurov guess i should stop wasting time with it and approach v from completely other direction
21:15 mod6 try it out, grab v99996, grab alfs expired key and drop it in your .wot
21:15 mod6 see what happens.

22:25 ben_vulpes jurov: i committed violence to asciilifeform's original v in a harebrained attempt to add tests, was roundly caned for the violence, left his implementation to him and hared off to reimplement in cl.
