00:00 decimation no but it would be an interesting exercise in archaeology
00:01 asciilifeform decimation: others have, if i recall, carried out this exercise. it isn't considerably more interesting than running the emulator.
00:01 decimation yeah good point. I'm gonna work on getting my 'opengenera' vm working again
00:09 asciilifeform decimation: opengenera vm << goes great with a set of these: http://imgur.com/nR6mErg
00:09 assbot talmud - Imgur
00:09 asciilifeform (ignore blue backbreaker, that's 'xerox')
00:10 asciilifeform and yes, technically these are all hypertext-accessible (yes, possibly first instance of hypertext used industrially) in og. but paper is nice.
00:11 asciilifeform i should like to find a buyer for these. before it's too late (and then i ask them to be brought to my peine forte et dure.)
00:12 decimation asciilifeform: lol. Yeah when I saw demos of genera, I thought "wait, did they invent hypertext too"?
00:12 asciilifeform hard to say who invented. but who used to greatest effect, earliest - yes, them.
00:12 decimation it seems like it is a hell of alot better than the shit berners-lee put out
~ 26 minutes ~
00:39 thestringpuller asciilifeform: to you have a sister named deedee?
00:41 thestringpuller did Diablo-D3 ever get around to making that 1mn dollar company that would be the end all to mining datacenters?
00:43 ben_vulpes !up Diablo-D3
00:44 ben_vulpes !up Diablo-D3
00:44 Diablo-D3 thestringpuller: no
00:44 Diablo-D3 I refunded investors and pulled out
00:45 thestringpuller hehe that's what she said
00:45 thestringpuller well i guess that's what he said?
00:45 Diablo-D3 heh.
00:45 Diablo-D3 but yeah, the whole DMC thing was hilarious
00:45 Diablo-D3 people keep calling me scam over it
00:45 Diablo-D3 yet it paid out more than was originally invested

00:46 ben_vulpes this is true?
00:46 dub sure, just not to the people who bought at IPO
00:47 Diablo-D3 dub: actually a lot of them stuck until the end and got their money back
00:47 ben_vulpes lol @ Luke-Jr's rating
00:47 Diablo-D3 the only people who "lost" were those who idiotically paniced
00:47 ben_vulpes -1 "i dunno"
00:47 Diablo-D3 ben_vulpes: yeah, luke-jr is a scam
00:47 dub I doubt that but it should have been a whorthwhile lesson
00:47 Diablo-D3 ben_vulpes: its why I dont care about wot, its not policed
00:47 dub whorethwhile?
00:48 ben_vulpes it's adequately policed
00:48 dub anyway, you can't put a price on education, Diablo-D3 is no scammer
00:48 Diablo-D3 dub: yes, whorethwhile
00:48 ben_vulpes i know danielpbarron vaguely, i know Luke-Jr vaguely, i know how to weight their ratings
00:48 ben_vulpes dag - you have a 5 from nanotube?
00:49 Luke-Jr Diablo-D3: no, you're a troll
00:49 Diablo-D3 lol
00:49 dub a surprising retort
00:49 Diablo-D3 Luke-Jr: yes, Im a troll that wrote a very important piece of software that a lot of people donated a lot of money to help make happen
00:49 Diablo-D3 Luke-Jr: now only if you could do that.
00:49 ben_vulpes aaaaah dig nanotube's rating of magicaltux
00:49 Luke-Jr Diablo-D3: lol, so important that nobody uses it
00:49 Diablo-D3 not anymore they dont
00:49 Diablo-D3 mining at home is dead
00:50 Diablo-D3 no profit in it, even if you own asics
00:50 dub they all use the software you plagiarised now Luke-Jr
00:50 Luke-Jr dub: you mean "maintain"
00:50 Luke-Jr dub: I have always given full credit to all authors and contributors of BFGMiner
00:51 thestringpuller nanotube needs to update his ratings
00:51 Diablo-D3 lol "maintain"
00:51 Diablo-D3 cgminer = C port of diablominer
00:51 dub thestringpuller: this is actually why the wot is broken
00:51 Luke-Jr Diablo-D3: you wish
00:51 Luke-Jr dub: it's not broken, it works well
00:51 thestringpuller nanotube is also a ghost
00:51 Diablo-D3 bfgminer = cgminer fork that luke-jr did because ck wouldnt merge his shit patches

00:52 Luke-Jr cgminer = BFGMiner fork because ck wanted free hardware for doing nothing
00:52 ben_vulpes ;;seen joecool
00:52 gribble joecool was last seen in #bitcoin-assets 14 weeks, 0 days, 0 hours, 46 minutes, and 27 seconds ago: <joecool> do you really have to ask
00:52 Luke-Jr Diablo-D3: liar
00:52 Diablo-D3 free hardware fo rdoing nothing? nope
00:52 Diablo-D3 he wanted the hardware on hand to actually test changes
00:52 Diablo-D3 and guess what? he got the hardware in the end.
00:52 Diablo-D3 Luke-Jr: you forget, I actually know ck, you dont
00:53 Luke-Jr Diablo-D3: guess what? he successfully trolled. doesn't make it any less of a troll.
00:53 Diablo-D3 lol Luke-Jr is so goddamned butthurt
00:53 Luke-Jr anyone who knows ck knows he's a pain
00:53 ben_vulpes so what if troll? so what if pain?
00:53 Luke-Jr ck has a very large reputation for being a difficult person to work with
00:53 ben_vulpes surely the commit history shows ck's contribution or lack thereof.
00:54 Luke-Jr ben_vulpes: yep
00:54 Diablo-D3 oh bullshit
00:54 Diablo-D3 ck just doesnt take shit from people
00:54 Diablo-D3 if he was hard to work with, I wouldnt have been friends with him for the last decade
00:54 Luke-Jr Diablo-D3: that's why he hasn't had kernel patches accepted since forever, eh
00:55 Diablo-D3 Luke-Jr: he hasnt?
00:55 Luke-Jr concepts, yes, but only after someone else has to go basically rewrite them
00:55 Luke-Jr Diablo-D3: nope, even I have more recent Linux commits
00:55 Diablo-D3 Luke-Jr: -ck is out for 3.16 or whatever the newest kernel is
00:55 Luke-Jr -ck is not Linux itself
00:55 Luke-Jr it's a fork
00:55 Luke-Jr like cgminer
00:56 Diablo-D3 its not a fork you idiot
00:56 Diablo-D3 its a patchset.
00:56 Luke-Jr that's another word for fork
00:56 Diablo-D3 its bfs plus a few other patches
00:56 Diablo-D3 Luke-Jr: no, it requires the linux source
00:56 Diablo-D3 you have to apply the patch
00:56 Luke-Jr irrelevant
00:56 Luke-Jr that's just a technical way of distributing code
00:56 Diablo-D3 can someone ban Luke-Jr?
00:57 Diablo-D3 the signal to noise ratio in this channel went to shit when he came in
00:57 ben_vulpes needs one more negrate
00:57 Luke-Jr all a git repo is, is a patch set
00:57 ben_vulpes its a fascinating slapfight i gotta say
00:58 Diablo-D3 ben_vulpes: not much of a slapfight when I have written code, and so has ck, and Luke-Jr hasnt actually done anything.
00:58 ben_vulpes eh, link me
00:58 Luke-Jr Diablo-D3: you're simply a liar, nothing more
00:58 Luke-Jr if anyone should be banned, it's you
00:58 Diablo-D3 Luke-Jr: I have seen your "code"
00:58 Diablo-D3 it is lol.
00:58 Diablo-D3 theres a reason why ck denied some of your patches
00:58 Luke-Jr Diablo-D3: you are lol
00:58 ben_vulpes until i see commits (ideally signed, but i don't think people were into that sort of thing back then) it's all hot air as far as i can tell
00:58 ben_vulpes hola nanotube
00:58 * nanotube haunts thestringpuller ooooOOOOO
00:58 Diablo-D3 ben_vulpes: diablominer is on github
00:58 Diablo-D3 hey nanotube
00:59 Luke-Jr ben_vulpes: signing commits is considered bad practice, actually
00:59 nanotube howdy folks :)
00:59 ben_vulpes Luke-Jr: oh and do explain why
00:59 Luke-Jr ben_vulpes: plenty on https://github.com/luke-jr/bfgminer
00:59 assbot luke-jr/bfgminer GitHub
00:59 ben_vulpes Luke-Jr: lol i ain't digging through y'all's shitpile
01:00 ben_vulpes link me to introducing commits tho and i'll start to care
01:00 xanthyos someone i know on tinychat is trying to dump btc to me at spot. i hope i don't come out looking like a fool. that's more of a worry than the money loss at this point: appearing like a fool in the short term to a bunch of druggies and cam whores
01:00 xanthyos i can't NOT buy though
01:00 ben_vulpes yeah you can
01:00 ben_vulpes just don't
01:00 nanotube xanthyos: why not ask for a discount to spot
01:00 ben_vulpes 20% is what - 80 bucks per right now?
01:01 xanthyos i'll definitely round it in my favor
01:02 thestringpuller oh wow nanotube speaks!
01:02 thestringpuller you still feel the same about MagicalTux? ;)
01:04 Luke-Jr ben_vulpes: I can't find it now, but the Linux kernel used to have a writeup why commits shouldn't be PGP signed
01:04 mircea_popescu <thestringpuller> did Diablo-D3 ever get around to making that 1mn dollar company << 1 mn BITCOIN. get it straight.,
01:04 Luke-Jr ben_vulpes: IIRC it was related to signing implying you have audited the complete state of the code, not just the diff
01:04 ben_vulpes well that's a load of malarkey.
01:05 ben_vulpes the other arguments i've heard is a) weakens "importance" of signatures and b) leaks keys
01:05 ben_vulpes a) lol
01:05 Luke-Jr probably also because git maintainers like to rebase commits regularly
01:05 ben_vulpes b) don't sign too often.
01:05 ben_vulpes well then the sig goes bad and tough luck.
01:05 thestringpuller mircea_popescu: i don't know my history very well even though i lived it
01:05 thestringpuller ewww rebase commits
01:05 thestringpuller good way to lose your history
01:05 Luke-Jr ben_vulpes: also, the sig can't prove who wrote the code anyway
01:06 ben_vulpes da
01:06 ben_vulpes fuq
01:06 Luke-Jr ben_vulpes: it would be trivial for Con to take my commits and reauthor them with his own signature, for example
01:06 Luke-Jr (although I doubt he'd go that far)
01:06 BingoBoingo thestringpuller: nano just updated a few ratings
01:06 Luke-Jr thestringpuller: yeah, I'm not a big fan of rebasing, but that's how the git culture works :/
01:06 mircea_popescu <ben_vulpes> aaaaah dig nanotube's rating of magicaltux << i don't think he ever revisits them or anytrhing
01:06 ben_vulpes wouldn't really pass an inspection tbh
01:07 Luke-Jr nanotube: wow, your new rating for Mark is harsh! :o
01:07 mircea_popescu <dub> thestringpuller: this is actually why the wot is broken << nah. if you know who people are you know what to discount. if you don't know, you can't use their ratings anyway.
01:07 BingoBoingo nanotube ratings watch http://dpaste.com/05T9JSY
01:07 assbot dpaste: 05T9JSY
01:07 Luke-Jr nanotube: the news last I checked said the police don't buy the conspiracy theories
01:08 ben_vulpes police? what is this.
01:09 Luke-Jr ben_vulpes: you know, the people investigating the MtGox incident
01:09 mircea_popescu well this banstuff has been an amusing read.

01:09 ben_vulpes yes, the entirely honest and upright japanese police.
01:09 mircea_popescu Luke-Jr you read some conspiracy theories about what the police is buying ?
01:10 Luke-Jr mircea_popescu: conspiracy theories being people saying Mark did it, with no evidence
01:10 mircea_popescu <Luke-Jr> ben_vulpes: signing commits is considered bad practice, actually << by idiots.
01:10 Luke-Jr police don't seem to believe that, and they have actual access to information
01:10 Luke-Jr mircea_popescu: the Linux maintainers are idiots?
01:11 mircea_popescu xanthyos> appearing like a fool in the short term to a bunch of druggies and cam whores << maybe you need a new reddit ?
01:11 Luke-Jr lol
01:11 BingoBoingo Luke-Jr> police don't seem to believe that, and they have actual access to information << How long did the Feds take on BFL?
01:11 ben_vulpes <Luke-Jr> mircea_popescu: the Linux maintainers are idiots? << a large number of them. do we not hear of linus routinely reaming people for idiocy?

01:13 Luke-Jr nanotube: btw, any idea why b-otc.com is broken?
01:13 Luke-Jr BingoBoingo: my point exactly
01:13 Luke-Jr BingoBoingo: Japanese police have stated they don't think Mark is involved in the crime
01:14 ben_vulpes he was still at the helm.
01:14 mircea_popescu no they didn't lol.
01:14 nanotube Luke-Jr: seems to work for me, just checked.
01:14 Luke-Jr ben_vulpes: yes, he screwed up big time
01:14 ben_vulpes it happened on his watch.
01:14 Luke-Jr nanotube: weird :/
01:14 mircea_popescu what the fuck dorkhead do you have to be to believe sssomething like that. "o the police said this guy isn't involved". how'd they know and why'd they say that.
01:14 ben_vulpes !up Diablo-D3
01:15 Luke-Jr mircea_popescu: they're investigating the theft
01:15 mircea_popescu right.
01:15 Luke-Jr and have access to information we don't
01:15 mircea_popescu no, they don't.
01:15 Luke-Jr nanotube: try over IPv6?
01:15 BingoBoingo No reason police aren't for sale like anyone else.
01:15 mircea_popescu but that aside : that's the definition of "investigating" : they dion;t know who did what
01:15 mircea_popescu and who's not involved.
01:15 mircea_popescu just because the idiots you normally shill at can't read japanese doesn't mean you actually get to propose nonsense in here as fact.
01:16 Luke-Jr I don't shill.
01:17 Luke-Jr mircea_popescu: too bad, I don't save every news article I read.
01:17 mircea_popescu right.
01:17 mircea_popescu because "news articles" are a source now.
01:17 ben_vulpes Luke-Jr: amusingly, you can't even find them when the time comes.
01:18 ben_vulpes not that any of them are written by a key i know anyways.
01:18 Luke-Jr mircea_popescu: "news articles" was the topic
01:18 Dimsler Luke-Jr, wtf are you talking about
01:18 mircea_popescu but the very notion that "the police"'d have some sort of priviledged access to information...
01:18 mircea_popescu holy shit, that takes the cake.
01:18 Luke-Jr Dimsler: ?
01:18 Dimsler i know
01:18 nanotube mircea_popescu: they /should/ have the entire gox database, unlike the general public.
01:18 Luke-Jr mircea_popescu: they do
01:18 mircea_popescu
01:18 mircea_popescu nanotube you mean that thing that was stolen off their servers 5x ?
01:19 mircea_popescu yeah, im sure they do o.o
01:19 Dimsler mircea_popescu, maybe they have access to the "secret" server
01:19 mircea_popescu yeah, right.
01:19 mircea_popescu maybe they have access to their own behinds.
01:19 Luke-Jr mircea_popescu: it's pretty obvious MagicalTux isn't allowed to publicly say a lot of stuff
01:19 mircea_popescu seems unlikely, giving what we know of public servants, but why not hoep.
01:19 Luke-Jr that stuff, the police have access to
01:19 nanotube mircea_popescu: sure, except it wasn't the entire thing? it was a particular date range, plus as i recall not all transactions?
01:20 mircea_popescu yeah because co-conspirator testimony is like the be all end all of truthsources.
01:20 mircea_popescu nanotube now how would one know this ?
01:20 nanotube i distinctly recall it didn't have some of my earliest transactions :P
01:20 mircea_popescu which one of the leaked versions of which particular breach ?
01:21 nanotube also, were there usd input/outputs? or just btc?
01:21 nanotube haha i don't even know :P
01:21 mircea_popescu i rest.
01:21 mircea_popescu let's talk of something else, this can't not end up retarded.
01:21 nanotube hehe me too! sleep time :)
01:21 Luke-Jr XD
01:22 * Luke-Jr goes back to code
01:22 mircea_popescu don't forget to sign it.
01:22 mircea_popescu incidentally, it occurs to me, the ba deeds registrar thing will be a not-so-bad way to distribute source.

01:28 mircea_popescu ben_vulpes eh ?
01:28 RagnarDanneskjol explain signed tag pls
01:28 mircea_popescu why, if you've read it ?
01:28 ben_vulpes RagnarDanneskjol: you're familiar with tagging in git?
01:28 RagnarDanneskjol sure
01:28 RagnarDanneskjol why bettr or different
01:29 asciilifeform why commits shouldn't be PGP signed... leaks keys << sorta like the idea that one shouldn't blow nose - leaks brains. yes, given some misconfigurations of the body - this can actually happen.
01:29 mircea_popescu lol
01:29 ben_vulpes a commit is "i did this code"
01:29 mircea_popescu splendid analogy
01:29 ben_vulpes a tag is "this release bears my stamp"
01:29 mircea_popescu ben_vulpes can i commit code my slavegirl wrote on her offline abacus ?
01:29 RagnarDanneskjol OH yea
01:29 ben_vulpes tux might nota been a party to the crime, but it happened under his watch.
01:30 ben_vulpes you can do anything you want
01:30 ben_vulpes how your wot handles it is unresolved
01:30 mircea_popescu so then if i sign a commit you made, what's the problem ?
01:31 ben_vulpes why not encrypt messages to bitcoin private keys? it works, what's the problem?
01:31 mircea_popescu can you stick to arguing your idea instead of arguing around ?
01:32 ben_vulpes i'll try.
01:33 ben_vulpes the commit is "here is a diff of thing before i started work today, and thing after i finished this feature." it may include tests, changes to other miscellaneous stuff. it should exist (in my opinion, i may be wrong and might need to be argued out of this) as a statement that "i did this work". this clearly gets hazy when you've got multiple eyes on a screen.
01:34 ben_vulpes and multiple people providing input into what precisely should be done. however, the buck must stop with the signer of the commit.
01:34 thestringpuller diff of commit hash in blockchain?
01:34 ben_vulpes also i don't really know that git affords for you signing my hash and including it in the repository, from a technical perspective.
01:34 ben_vulpes er, commit.
01:35 mircea_popescu ben_vulpes but see, if what you mean to say is "signing actual commits may be taking on more responsibility than you realise", why say "anathema" ?
01:35 mircea_popescu as far as i can see, all signatories of a thing are joint and several responsible for it.
01:35 ben_vulpes that's why the signatory of the commit can only be held responsible for changes introduced in that commit.
01:35 mircea_popescu if that's what you're trying to do, it's not anathema, it's the right thing. if it's not what you're trying to do it's still not anathema, just, you're misguidedly using the tools
01:36 ben_vulpes sure, i made a change to openssl, and i stand behind it. that should not be taken to be an endorsement of the project.
01:36 mircea_popescu ben_vulpes basically the practica application would be, once X bug is found, grep for the code and whenever you find it in something someone signed, tear them a new one.
01:36 ben_vulpes what would it mean for it to be in something that someone signed?
01:36 ben_vulpes that's the importance of signing the diff.
01:37 mircea_popescu well up to the signer what he signs.
01:37 ben_vulpes that's why the commit is the right thing for a contributor to sign.
01:37 ben_vulpes "i changed these things, and i take responsibility for the content of the change."
01:37 ben_vulpes now if you strip whitespace on a line that later turns out to have a mission-critical hole...
01:37 mircea_popescu sure, if that's what he means that's what he should do.
01:38 mircea_popescu mno.
01:38 mircea_popescu fuck you, don't dick around with lines you don't udnerstand.
01:38 mircea_popescu "all i did was the space guise" psshhhh
01:38 ben_vulpes d'accord.
01:38 mircea_popescu the entire point of the exercise is to make people fucking affraid to write code.
01:38 asciilifeform ^
01:38 ben_vulpes now in the tag, you include a message: "this signed tag is my stamp upon the whole and entirety of the codebase".
01:39 mircea_popescu that' the only way they'll stop long enough to read something.
01:39 mircea_popescu ben_vulpes that's nonsense. what's this, a badly specified bitbet bet ?
01:39 ben_vulpes or, "this signed tag is my stamp on lines xx-yy in file thus.hs"
01:39 mircea_popescu no dude, you include what you sign between --begin and end
01:39 ben_vulpes i'm demonstrating the range of what's possible, not what i'd do.
01:39 mircea_popescu no signature-by-reference. now THAT'
01:39 mircea_popescu s anathema.
01:40 ben_vulpes and you probably want to hash the lines and sign the hash to boot.
01:40 asciilifeform http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=13-08-2014#794835 << example of responsibility
01:40 assbot Logged on 13-08-2014 20:08:25; asciilifeform: one calls out recipe steps; one actually tightens the bolt, whatever; one - verifies. then they all sign.
01:40 ben_vulpes asciilifeform: right.
01:40 ben_vulpes what is anathema in the previous context mircea_popescu is taking someone else's commits, signing them and claiming them as your own.
01:41 ben_vulpes if i find commits like that without a "copied without permission from XXX" -- that's a demerit.
01:41 asciilifeform (example not necessarily applicable to given domain, but specifically of folks taking actual responsibility for their actions)
01:42 asciilifeform as for this entire thread - being pessimist, imho any software project which appears to call for this level of organizational complexity - is a lost cause.
01:42 thestringpuller mircea_popescu: you could only make people terrified in this system if everyone was required to sign commits no?
01:42 asciilifeform and yes, that means, e.g., linux kernel.
01:44 * asciilifeform back to sleep
01:44 ben_vulpes in 20 years, a bitcoin implementation may be software people's "masterpiece" work - eg the piece of work that grants one the title of "master" in the field.
01:45 ben_vulpes if i see this day i will be a happy man.

01:55 mircea_popescu <ben_vulpes> what is anathema in the previous context mircea_popescu is taking someone else's commits, signing them and claiming them as your own. << why ?
01:55 mircea_popescu there's no permission to be had or sought. this is free software.

15:49 kakobrekla Y I NO SHIP? I R AIRPLANE.
15:49 asciilifeform out of curiosity, q for the aficionados: is there any mining hw vendor that is innocent of the scam 'bfl' is known to have carried out ?
15:50 thickasthieves i'd say no
15:50 kakobrekla fury?
15:50 thickasthieves ah maybe them
15:50 thickasthieves asicminer did technically IPO before they had a thing
15:50 thickasthieves though they never took customer money w/o shipping
15:51 asciilifeform but is there even one asic vendor that didn't mine with customer-paid chips before shipping ?

15:53 The20YearIRCloud Doesn't Romania still use stamped AK recievers? I know all the ones we get here in the US are paper thin
15:54 asciilifeform The20YearIRCloud: (ianal!) but recently i was told that it is, apparently, still legal to cut your own 'receiver' in usa - so long as you write your name on it.
15:54 The20YearIRCloud Very much so , i have several
15:54 mircea_popescu The20YearIRCloud yeah mostly
15:54 The20YearIRCloud Manufacturing firearms isn't illegal anyhwere in the US outside of California and NY whom have additional restrictions. The federal deal is that it has to comply with all local laws, and if you intent to sell it, they require your information to be on it.
15:55 punkman this circle thing works, just grabbed a cheap coin
15:55 The20YearIRCloud And then, the 'firearm' as far as the USG and ATF are concerned is the part that contains the serial number
15:55 nubbins` punkman +1 amirite
15:55 asciilifeform The20YearIRCloud: afaik there's some national list of prohibited features
15:55 The20YearIRCloud So with an AK/AR it's the reciever, on something like a glock it's the frame/grip.
15:56 punkman nubbins`: almost +1
15:56 The20YearIRCloud It's a limited group asciilifeform : No barrels under 16" , gun must be 26" or longer, no fully auto/burst. No shotguns under 18" barrel.
15:56 punkman surprised it worked in this shithole
15:56 * asciilifeform wonders if small arms makers in usa spend more on metals, machining, or lawyers
15:56 The20YearIRCloud Labor
15:56 The20YearIRCloud The uS passed a law a while ago that made it quite hard to sue a gun maker
15:56 asciilifeform sue (civil action) or prosecute ?
15:56 The20YearIRCloud Correct
15:57 punkman nubbins`: did you get like 10 sms messages from them?
15:57 The20YearIRCloud Because if they would allow it, it would bring on a severe wave of 'i improperly used your product to hurt someone, so i'm gonna sue' which happend a ton in the early 90s
15:57 asciilifeform let's say you manufacture, e.g., shotguns. then inspector walks in, with a piece inscribed with your logo, 17" long.
15:57 asciilifeform how you prove it was 18 when left your shop ?
15:57 The20YearIRCloud Depends on what kind of inspection you're talking about
15:57 nubbins` punkman any major action required a SMS verification code
15:58 asciilifeform whatever kind of inspection (ianal)
15:58 The20YearIRCloud Well, most firearm firms that have a worry about the legality might send a copy or a blueprint to the ATF to get certification
15:58 asciilifeform yes - of design
15:58 The20YearIRCloud If it's a prototype, and you have a commercial manufacture license, you can fix that
15:58 asciilifeform but how to prove that you didn't make a particular non-compliant item
15:58 The20YearIRCloud If it's 17" , the law says you can just weld a piece of scrap metal to it that's 1" long and make it get to the minimum length
15:58 The20YearIRCloud It's very, very difficult
15:58 asciilifeform no, think about the hypothetical. inspector walks in with 17 inch barrel, says 'you made this. now to jail.'
15:59 The20YearIRCloud SIG very recently put out a few hundred thousand items that the ATF decided they didn't like, and they were essentially impossible to recall, so ATF sued them, and SIG won the lawsuit
15:59 asciilifeform you: 'it was 18. you sawed it off at fbi headquarters.'
15:59 The20YearIRCloud Depends on commercial manufacture or doing it yourself
15:59 Duffer1 welding a muzzle device counts too
15:59 asciilifeform inspector: 'libelling a loyal servant of the crown. extra jail points!'
15:59 The20YearIRCloud Read up on the story of Ruby ridge to find what happens over that inch asciilifeform
15:59 The20YearIRCloud becuase that's what happened. A ATF agent got a guy to cut a inch off a shotgun in exchange for $200, then started a whole ordeal over it
16:00 asciilifeform that's tame compared to the gedankenexperiment. ordinary 'entrapment.'
16:00 The20YearIRCloud Well in the case of ruby ridge the USG killed the guy's family
16:00 asciilifeform but what if your refuse to break the laws, and inspector helpfully buys your 18 and cuts it in his office.
16:01 The20YearIRCloud law says it's on them, although it could be done, ala gunwalker
16:01 Duffer1 forces can trick you into breaking the law with impunity
16:01 The20YearIRCloud where they forced a gun store to sell guns to a known cartel member, or otherwise they'd throw all the people in jail. Then said cartel guy kills quite a few with said gun.
16:04 asciilifeform just seems like you're at the total mercy of the crown, if you're a legal (registered) small-arms whatever-business.
16:04 asciilifeform since law is whatever they say it is, and they can trot out whatever piece of hardware and say it came from your conveyor,
16:05 asciilifeform they can force you to do or say absolutely anything - say, borrow your wife, or whatnot.

16:06 gribble Error: Problem retrieving latest block data.
16:06 nubbins` hm
16:06 nubbins` no kidding
16:06 asciilifeform in fact, this logically applies to anyone known to own the required tools for manufacturing illegal widgets
16:06 The20YearIRCloud or legal ones
16:07 asciilifeform this is roughly the situation with organic chemistry in usa, and has been for many years
16:07 penguirker New blog post: https://www.bcoinnews.com/bfl-internal-log/
16:07 asciilifeform owns beaker? terrorist. all that remains is for inquisitor to establish what naughty substance you were making (or intended to make - separate article in penal code)
16:09 asciilifeform you: 'i wanted a belousov–zhabotinsky reaction.' judge: 'you want chemisty - go to a store.' you: 'can't buy in a store' judge:
16:09 asciilifeform 'then illegal'
16:09 nubbins` !up PeterL
16:09 nubbins` use it wisely
16:09 PeterL asciilifeform: presumably the gun manufactureres keep records of what they produce
16:10 asciilifeform PeterL: you don't get it, do you
16:10 PeterL signed by the techs certifiying they meet specs
16:10 PeterL then they can use those docs in court
16:10 asciilifeform PeterL: inspector walks in with the 17-inch barrel, and says 'you are also guilty of falsifying records, since your records do not show that you made this'
16:10 PeterL then they would have to prove records were falsified
16:11 asciilifeform really.
16:11 asciilifeform this is the basic 'kilo of cocaine in your toilet tank' theorem
16:11 asciilifeform any 'strict liability offence' carries with it - this theorem
16:11 asciilifeform in that burden of proof is, de facto, on the accused in all cases.
16:11 asciilifeform because in as far as prosecutor goes - he has easy life. i.e. an illegal $item with your name on it
16:12 asciilifeform 'loyal servant of the crown says he found this under your bed.'
16:12 PeterL I wonder if this has been tried in court yet?
16:12 asciilifeform depends on what you mean by 'this'
16:13 PeterL your example, modified gun used to prosecute manufacturer of record?
16:14 asciilifeform PeterL: normally they use 'child porn' to create a 'lettre de cachet' rather than gun.
16:14 asciilifeform gun is just one example.
16:15 PeterL could agent walk into my lab and say "You have benzyl chloride, acetonitrile and methylamine, therfore intent to manufacture methamphetamine"?
16:15 asciilifeform yes.
16:15 mircea_popescu <nubbins`> use it wisely << actually he can selfvoice nao.
16:15 asciilifeform (ask lawyer, see if agrees. as i understand - yes.)
16:16 mircea_popescu <asciilifeform> in that burden of proof is, de facto, on the accused in all cases. << goes neatly with the
16:16 PeterL but any organic lab will have those ingredients
16:16 mircea_popescu 'why can't miracles be accepted in science"
16:16 mircea_popescu and for that matter, an excellent example of why so called "strict liability" and the rule of law can not coexist.
16:16 mircea_popescu any state purporting to enforce strict liability is pure stalinism and nothing but.
16:16 asciilifeform ^
16:16 Duffer1 i believe it would be enough for an arrest, prosecution would be more difficult
16:16 asciilifeform exactly what i was trying to explain here.
16:16 nubbins` mircea_popescu then whytf is he PMing me asking for voice?!
16:16 nubbins` !down PeterL
16:16 Duffer1 arrest if an officer wanted to fuck with you

21:48 Vexual balinese dice?
21:49 mircea_popescu cazalla listen, we need someone to make a proper bitcoin news venue.
21:50 mircea_popescu instead of linking to a coindesk piece, just rewrite it so it's no longer FUCKTARDED, publish it and link that.
21:50 Vexual aren't we here
21:50 Vexual hmm
21:50 mircea_popescu win-win.
21:50 cazalla mircea_popescu, i looked elsewhere but it seems he spoke to them about it
21:51 mircea_popescu only reason anyone's speaking to them is because of this false perception of "leadership"
21:51 mircea_popescu exactly same reason derps flock to tardstalk
21:51 mircea_popescu http://www.reddit.com/r/Bitcoin/comments/2dqrmx/coindesk_is_deleting_comments_that_question_the/ for that matter.
21:51 assbot Coindesk is deleting comments that question the validity of their articles. : Bitcoin
21:52 mircea_popescu it's a shithole of the first degree, and it only continues to exist because everyone's like... meh, whatever, ragazines.
21:52 cazalla is that an endoresment to start one?
21:52 mircea_popescu it wasn't so bad back when the bitpay & co set of scammers that had stolen bitcoin magazine were still hoping that brand's not now dead,
21:52 mircea_popescu but meanwhile...
21:52 mircea_popescu cazalla definitely.
21:53 mircea_popescu im sick of reading fucktarded goop because that's where people link for a story like that because apparently nobody else wrote it.
21:53 mircea_popescu it's like having all fruit glacee'd in shit. how about someone start a greengrocer already, we don't need any of this glacee business.
21:53 kakobrekla mostly only people who already know the real story are interested in it, not your avg reader
21:54 mircea_popescu kakobrekla the average reader'd be interested in where his butthole is, if he could strain his brain enough to learn he even has one.
21:54 Vexual im thinkin paywall
21:55 kakobrekla i think the question 'who are you writing for' is in place
21:55 kakobrekla for us - redundant.
21:55 mircea_popescu hm.
21:56 mircea_popescu problem is if you let this shit continue indefinitely you'll have an endless stream of idiots with firmly entrenched idiocies.
21:56 mircea_popescu "99% don't give a shit about gavin's latest stupidity, but this is not a signal to stfu and go home"
21:56 mircea_popescu "before than, 99% didn't give a shit about bitcoind 0.7 or .8 or .9, but CORE DEVS!!!"
21:57 * BingoBoingo wonders where a managing editor might be found. Experience with this seems to be the scarce piece.
21:57 mircea_popescu well done, core devs for a project that massively ignores you.
21:57 mircea_popescu BingoBoingo the problem is the sort of drive.
21:57 mircea_popescu what's needed is someone willing and able to put 16 hour days into this for years.
21:57 mircea_popescu an arrington is what's needed in this space. and by god this is the chance for someone like that to become something like that.
21:58 Vexual i know little enough to edit
21:59 dub what we really need is btc onion
21:59 kakobrekla if you let this shit continue < way too much stuff continues to continue and noone can do shit.
21:59 cazalla i'll have a think about it, i don't want to say yes unless i'll actually commit to it and have a plan of attack
21:59 BingoBoingo mircea_popescu: This is true.
22:00 mircea_popescu dub nah, sa got that covered.
22:00 mircea_popescu cazalla ideally a team.
22:01 kakobrekla and lots of css
22:01 TheNewDeal where is the btc onion? I would like a link
22:01 mircea_popescu no css.
22:01 Vexual rss?
22:01 dub bootstrap?
22:01 kakobrekla html3 and css5
22:01 mircea_popescu and none of the fucktarded retardation of that guy what's his name, the wanna-be competition for coindesk and co,
22:02 mircea_popescu the guy that was here for five minutes but then concluded he has better things to do
22:02 mircea_popescu with the same stupid head that then generated that entire "taking full responsibility" fiasco.
22:03 cazalla coinfire?
22:03 mircea_popescu right
22:03 cazalla it became even stupider http://coinfire.cf/2014/09/26/lets-get-meta-site-ownership-via-token/

22:04 mircea_popescu it's been going to shit ever since the guy ran out of his 6 months of time and "had to make revenue"
22:04 mircea_popescu his attempts are so naive and idiotic it pains. definitely sunk the modicum of credibility he had amassed within two weeks.
22:04 mircea_popescu which is what i mean. no movements like that. you run into management problems, come here and ask.
22:05 Vexual ive got a good title
22:05 mircea_popescu and it's unfortunate, too, because all that was easily avoidable.

22:09 mircea_popescu you can just exploit the current idiots. read and rewrite coindesk and co.
22:10 cazalla that would be enough to get it off the ground until it has traction
22:10 Vexual that huffington lady got richer with her news aggregator than she did maring into shipping
22:11 BingoBoingo I dunno that Coindesk puts out enough material... Too many non-stories http://feeds.feedburner.com/CoinDesk

22:11 mircea_popescu cazalla exactly. and you'll know you got the traction cause they start bitcoing.
22:11 mircea_popescu bitching*
22:11 mircea_popescu and it'll be a fine thing too. hurting stuff like coindesk is worth it just on that basis alone.
22:11 mircea_popescu BingoBoingo to add salt to the cuts you can do a weekly roundup and mock their unpublishable shit.
22:12 kakobrekla go ahead and try then
22:12 mircea_popescu cazalla see inf danielpbarron feels like it.
22:12 mircea_popescu JuliaTourianski what are you doing these days ?
22:13 cazalla i would want to run something like that by myself at first and bring people in later, too many chefs and all that
22:14 Duffer1 what would be written about that isn't already covered by bit-ass?
22:14 BingoBoingo cazalla: I'd be up for some story authoring, contributing to the cause. The too many chefs problem isn't about having too many people so much as a shitty heirarchy.
22:15 mircea_popescu Duffer1 it's mostly a format war.
22:15 mircea_popescu cazalla BingoBoingo has it i think. just don't try and run "teams" you'll be fine.
22:16 BingoBoingo It's the editors/writers problem that among other shit killed Coinfire.
22:17 BingoBoingo Like the Chefs/Cooks problems that makes most people's restaurant dreams fail
22:17 decimation so I was listened to this podcast: http://www.econtalk.org/archives/2014/01/laurence_kotlik.html << this guy is an "economist" who says that if you total all the present liabilities of usg, they total to $205 trillion
22:17 assbot " + soundfiledesc + "
22:17 BingoBoingo Also LibreSSL update for the interested http://www.openbsd.org/papers/eurobsdcon2014-libressl.html
22:17 assbot LibreSSL: More Than 30 Days Later
22:18 mircea_popescu decimation something like that.
22:19 thestringpuller what is coinfire?
22:19 Vexual i spent 2 hours of my life wathcing huffingtons interview on abc, it was interesting
22:19 decimation I've looked into the numbers and it is pretty much impossible to verify that total
22:19 decimation but it's also impossible to account for the dollar at all
22:19 BingoBoingo thestringpuller: Coinfire is this site that was promising for a week and a half then turned full derp
22:19 decimation it's safe to say that usg has a present liability of at least all assets in the entire world, possibly more
22:21 mircea_popescu decimation all that really matters is that the us has underwritten liabilities that exceed its ability to pay.
22:21 mircea_popescu by how much is an academic point.
22:21 decimation yes, the evidence for that statement is quite strong
22:21 danielpbarron http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=30-09-2014#850633 << sounds like fun
22:21 assbot Logged on 30-09-2014 02:12:18; mircea_popescu: cazalla see inf danielpbarron feels like it.
22:21 mircea_popescu and there's no court in the world that can absolve it through a bankruptcy. whether they try to run one or not. kinda the fundamental reason it ended.
22:22 decimation its choice is to either renig or go broke, it's that simple
22:22 mircea_popescu can't renege.
22:22 mircea_popescu and can't go broke.
22:22 mircea_popescu it's choice is to start sucking cock or try a totalitarian state play.

22:31 decimation "Other concerns he and others have raised relate to the lack of whistleblower protections in the new laws, which jail those who "recklessly" disclose intelligence information. That would include journalists, bloggers or officials, who could be jailed for 10 years"
22:31 Dimsler lol australia
22:32 Vexual yep united states sandbox
22:32 cazalla no more waltzing matilda for me

22:35 decimation "wrecker", but hearkening back to RSFSR penal codes that allow anyone to be jailed because they were found to be thwarting the great leader's plans
22:35 Dimsler the term means to sabotage a political insititue
22:35 cazalla interestingly, google image search for вредительство shows wrecking balls
22:35 mircea_popescu the term means to pose a threat to the delusions of sovereignity of one less powerful.
22:35 Vexual hmm
22:36 Vexual ahh
22:36 Dimsler yes
22:36 mircea_popescu in the original case, the "workers" and their "party"

22:59 decimation as I recall assbot was down when the conversation I recall happened - or I could be wrong
23:00 asciilifeform incidentally, interesting to examine etymology of gulag
23:00 Vexual sounds like hungarian stew to my ear
23:01 asciilifeform гулаг == главное управление лагерей и мест заключения ~= 'main management of camps and places of confinement.'
23:01 asciilifeform so it's really a proxy word, like 'mikado' (door to throne room) in japan, or 'the crown' in english world
