decimation: punkman: that's 2-3 billion signups <<< and yet, in spite of that claim (probably unsubstantiated, as all of these, but certainly more defensible in VC terms than anyone else's), g+ isn't worht anything. |
| 12:17 |
mircea_popescu |
if there's a better example as to why the "grow big fast" so-called strategy doiesn't work, here it is. google's own g+ is not worth naything in spite of 3bn users. |
| 12:17 |
mircea_popescu |
that watsapp no users claimed as however many seemed to be worth something when fb paid for them is no support of the theory. that g+ isn't worth anything IS counterproof. |
| 12:18 |

mircea_popescu |
thestringpuller yes, actually, in a backwards sort of way it's exactly that. google can't afford to have zuck pretend like oh, "we're better than google". so if he tries they can go "heh, we're fb plus other things". |

| 12:22 |

if that strategy succeeds, the bubble that is facebook maybe unprecedented upon collapse. |

not "in a sense". in all senses. |
| 12:26 |
thestringpuller |
just making sure I understand the concept. |
| 12:26 |
mircea_popescu |
bubbles are built not out of money but out of dreams, hopes and assorted verbiage. which is why money is such an approximative approach to attack them. |
| 12:26 |
mircea_popescu |
queue newton's despair. |
| 12:27 |
mircea_popescu |
in principle, some pacific islanders with their six acres of unarable land and fifty coconuts can make a bubble just as well as new york can. |
| 12:27 |
mircea_popescu |
and when it pops, it will be JUST AS destructive to economy & society, according to how close to the absolute maximum it got. |
| 12:28 |
thestringpuller |
yea. not many people are going to "front" the pacific islanders dreams with drugs, sex and rock & roll in the same way US-ians do with Sillycon Valley |
| 12:28 |
mircea_popescu |
so you think. |
| 12:28 |
mircea_popescu |
but in fact, sex, drugs and rock and roll are a permanence in human history. |
| 12:28 |

thestringpuller |
be it ferarri's, hookers, blow, etc. |
| 12:29 |
mircea_popescu |
yeah. but the something in question chiefly is "social and economic preeminence" |
| 12:29 |
mircea_popescu |
it's not anything concrete. |
| 12:29 |

it can be "something" concrete like say a house. |

BingoBoingo if you want advice, the best advice is, use curl to pull up a shiotton of feeds, create a script that greps it by keywords with weight, create another that searches for rare words, and sort the whole thing in that order. |

you know, some hdds escaped... will take at least days till they catch all of them |

and here i thought hotswappable arrays are common practice. |

good luck finding compatible spares in less then 5 days |

mircea_popescu |
Naphex you know the marquardt idiot is sitting on like 5mn worth of donations / revenues ? |
| 13:39 |

or maybe it's their bank that's placing arbitrary access limits on their HDDs |
| 13:40 |

the plague of bitcoin : it empowered all sorts of people who, well... aren't really up to the task. |

not having spare hdd's available for your server, will make you rage so hard, while you call all the available suppliers |
| 13:40 |
Naphex |
ofcourse they won't have any available, especially for your raid |
| 13:41 |

mircea_popescu: doubt anyone was monitoring those servers. HDD's give quite a few warnings before blowing up. Especially in raid setups |

they may. |

i've had full hardware hosted and running for 6+ years. dozens of hdd's switched and replaced. maybe 1 complete raid failure on HP Proliants |

Naphex i recently passed the 1k physical hdds lifetime award. and seen it exactly once. |

sounds right |

mircea_popescu: was using HP Proliants for a while, had one that the whole 8x raid array just barked, as soon as i replaced 1 hdd, the other would fail |

stuff like "desolder the 512mb card, replace with 128gb card" and "get kernel so and so in there" would be all fine. |
| 14:37 |
mircea_popescu |
if bitcoin nodes would cost something like 50 bucks and 6 hours' time off a computer-aware kid, that'd help immensely |
| 14:37 |
mircea_popescu |
because practically everyone has 4 hole router at home of which 2-3 holes are used. so get that plugged into the 4th and there we go, node problem fixed. |
| 14:38 |

ben_vulpes: what would you say is minimal ram for a 0.5.3 node bringup ? |
| 20:30 |
kakobrekla |
youd want 1gig |
| 20:30 |
kakobrekla |
maybe 500 if system has small footprint |
| 20:31 |

o shit gotta /nick ben_vulpes first |

1g is probably not happening on 100 usd. |

ive got a separate vm that has 1Gb of ram and it runs for about a 18-20 hours before it runs out of ram. |

well i mean |
| 20:34 |
kakobrekla |
recall the munin charts i posted |
| 20:34 |
nubbins` |
the amount of ram isn't really the issue |
| 20:34 |
mod6 |
my aws vm has like 2gb of ram and it runs out between 24 - 48 hours |
| 20:34 |
nubbins` |
the inexorable consumption thereof is the issue |
| 20:34 |
mod6 |
yes. |
| 20:34 |
undata |
hah, I had munin on a micro and it'd help take down the instance |
| 20:35 |
nubbins` |
so maybe not design the device around the memory leak |
| 20:35 |
undata |
pile up on itself when the previous cron hadn't finished munging graphs |
| 20:35 |

so it runs out once an hour? unplug it |

asciilifeform it doesn't actually crash-crash, not really. |
| 23:22 |
mod6 |
mp: yeah, it definatly hits a slowdown from like 180k->270k |
| 23:22 |
asciilifeform |
mircea_popescu: mine certainly did not. leaks? yes. |
| 23:22 |
mircea_popescu |
right. |
| 23:23 |
mircea_popescu |
anyway, mod6 ben_vulpes : asciilifeform has a point, it'd be ideal if this can be wrapped up with a foundation blessed bitcoin core, and one that has the bad seed model snipped out ideally. |
| 23:24 |
mircea_popescu |
this is the ender of worlds, as it were. |
| 23:24 |
mod6 |
so noted. |
| 23:24 |
mircea_popescu |
once there's a million dollar worth of them in the wild, "upgrading" bitcoin is this good joke. |
| 23:24 |

i have a 0.8 node that does crash quarterly or so. bitcoin-msghand[15569]: segfault at 0 ip 0000000000blahblah sp 0000blahblahblah error 4 in bitcoind[400000+303000] |

asciilifeform i really never looked at anything they pushed out after the hearn fork. |
| 23:24 |
asciilifeform |
(how long has 8 been around? forgot) |
| 23:25 |
asciilifeform |
mircea_popescu: trick is to get them out and plugged in, it would appear |
| 23:26 |
mircea_popescu |
that won't be mnuch of a problem, once we have a coherent story wrapped up. |
| 23:26 |
mircea_popescu |
and mind you that i do NOT mean linux level of coherence. |
| 23:26 |
mircea_popescu |
i mean osx level of coherence. |
| 23:26 |
asciilifeform |
if seriously contemplating this, it is absolutely essential that 'the sapper not err' |
| 23:26 |
mircea_popescu |
error being defined as, "doesn't work" |
| 23:26 |
asciilifeform |
or phoundationfuckable |
| 23:26 |
mircea_popescu |
im not really worried about that. |
| 23:26 |
asciilifeform |
see earlier observation re: irc seeding |
| 23:26 |
mircea_popescu |
they're too dumb to count. |
| 23:27 |
asciilifeform |
they - sure. what of their master ? |
| 23:27 |
mircea_popescu |
just get it to where mrmike can run one. |
| 23:27 |
mircea_popescu |
their master is fresh out of stupid school. |
| 23:27 |
asciilifeform |
incidentally, if these are also to function as 'wallets'... i haven't any notion of whether, e.g., 'pogo', even has an rng. |
| 23:28 |
mircea_popescu |
nah. |
| 23:28 |
mircea_popescu |
no wallet at all. |
| 23:28 |
asciilifeform |
that's sane. but what luser will plug it in? 'wats in it fer me' |
| 23:28 |
mircea_popescu |
this is going to be a mempool "miner". |
| 23:28 |
mircea_popescu |
everyone will. |

asciilifeform assumes mircea_popescu has a plan |
| 23:29 |
mircea_popescu |
i have a great plan. and if it doesn't work, that's ok. |
| 23:29 |
mircea_popescu |
i have another. |

i bought myself all sorts of excellent cheeses today, from this very competent deli |
| 23:31 |

nice |

asciilifeform spends more on cheese than on bandwidth, electronics, fuel put together |
| 23:32 |
mircea_popescu |
asciilifeform you know the cheese shop sketch ? |

I think it is, they tried to open a shop in wash dc |

didn't work out well |

ah |
| 23:52 |
mircea_popescu |
the thing is, us folk, and especially midwesterners (which is what washington is, in spite of all pretense) have very VERY bland tastes and a taste for blandness. |
| 23:52 |
mircea_popescu |
cheese's not really their thing. what passes for "sharp" cheddar in washington dc is in fact barely more than cream fraiche. |
| 23:53 |
asciilifeform |
decimation: yes, it existed. did go once. |
| 23:53 |
asciilifeform |
us folk... have very VERY bland tastes and a taste for blandness << yes! |
| 23:54 |
asciilifeform |
it is astonishing. |
