00:00 bagehot It depends on what is enforced by the people who decide what money and the economy are.
00:01 bagehot And also how those people define the terms.
00:01 bagehot That's my first pass at an answer. That's not a question I've thought about before.
00:01 mircea_popescu one interesting idea that came out here is that the people do not decide what either money or the economy are.
00:02 mircea_popescu but vice-versa : money and the economy decide what people are.
00:11 mircea_popescu !up bagehot
00:11 mircea_popescu you should prolly get in the wot.
00:12 bagehot Thanks! First, re: one interesting idea: Can you clarify 'decide'? One sort of sociological argument I've heard is that social systems cause specific behaviors to be present in people.
00:13 bagehot Another argument I've heard is that thing like 'money' and the 'economy' exist as they are because of some constraints that are present in the natural world and so those constraints, eh, cause certain behaviors
00:14 bagehot Its definately the case that some social systems cause behaviors in practically all people, although I suspect once in a while people manage to commander the board for a bit.
00:14 mircea_popescu the latter.
00:14 mircea_popescu just like gravity causes fishes to swim and birds to fly, just so money and the economy cause black people to be poor and jews to have long noses
00:14 mircea_popescu or thereabouts.
00:17 bagehot I suspect so, although, it'd depend on the natural constraint thats being put forth
00:17 bagehot aside on the wot, is this the resource to read for wot? http://cascadianhacker.com/blog/2014/04/11_bitcoin-assets-new-wot-and-voice-model.html

03:52 mircea_popescu im sure if someone burned down reddit loads of future intellectuals will be all "o noes, the treasures lost". because they don't exactly know.

04:20 ben_vulpes hm wait wrong construction
04:21 mircea_popescu srsly.
04:21 ben_vulpes cazalla: please run 'getblockhash 233764' and report
04:21 ben_vulpes if you have 0.8.6 available for inquiry.
04:22 ben_vulpes 67.70.13.210 << in 10* seeds?
04:22 ben_vulpes and to tag this with the 'block download' thread: nodes that misbehave like this must be booted from the dl candidate list.
04:23 ben_vulpes pronto.
04:23 mircea_popescu dude, we went over this. the list is strictly made out of wot nodes. nothing else.
04:23 mircea_popescu stop filtering badness.
04:24 cazalla ben_vulpes, can't at this time, chain and client i have half done here atm is 0.10.0 from when i got frustrated and decided to see if this work, it didn't get to that blockheight
04:24 ben_vulpes not the hardcoded list, but the list of candidates constructed at/during runtime from which a node may consider downloading blocks.
04:24 cazalla i actually have older chain here on external hdd so im copying that over, it isn't a full one either though, i believe it is from other day when trying 0.8.6 so will try soon
04:25 mircea_popescu ben_vulpes ideally it'd have a performance based model, where it sorts the connections according to a "value", periodically kicking the bottom one and taking a new one in
04:26 mircea_popescu just assign costs to cpu/bw usage, and price to information obtained, and there you go
04:26 cazalla anyway, point i was trying to make last night was drunk, bad decision or not, i have done this many times over past year and it would always get a full chain after a day, but can't since 0.10.0 came out
04:26 ben_vulpes this is the obvious solution, yes.
04:26 ben_vulpes well codified, thank you mircea_popescu.
04:26 * mircea_popescu waives any merit.
04:26 cazalla not that i was trying to use 0.10.0, that was just a last resort past few days
04:27 ben_vulpes cazalla: this needs proving and reproduction.
04:27 ben_vulpes nailgun for the shitgnomes.
04:28 ben_vulpes eg does it wedge reproducibly, etc.
04:28 ben_vulpes jesus fuck the qa.

04:30 ben_vulpes heh probs.
04:31 ben_vulpes twould be real funny if there were privkeys in that log statement.
04:31 cazalla nah i checked

04:34 cazalla ben_vulpes, confident nothing in there, but even if there was, i have nothing more than bitcents on machine connected to internet
04:34 cazalla no
04:35 ben_vulpes was that a fresh sync or using an old blockchain?
04:35 cazalla it's about 8gb of blocks which i downloaded using 0.8.6 the other day
04:35 ben_vulpes 132587 << fresh sync i'm betting
04:36 cazalla so i copied em over into blocks dir here now and ran 0.8.6

04:40 cazalla well that's why i have a pogo otw
04:40 ben_vulpes aws bill was insane for last three months
04:41 cazalla i'll fuck around with the pogo and hopefully learn a thing or two, that but that aside, what are odds shitty ram is cause of my problems.. memtest86 cites errors and i actually did have a couple blackouts a month back
04:41 ben_vulpes well i have non pogo tasks for you
04:41 mircea_popescu cazalla that may have corrupted a db then
04:42 cazalla mircea_popescu even on fresh o/s with new install of bitcoin-qt?
04:42 ben_vulpes i will not accept 'may have'.
04:42 mircea_popescu cazalla if memory corrupts then yes, on anything.
04:42 cazalla i'll go buy a cheap stick of ram tmw and try again
04:43 cazalla ben_vulpes, unfortunately, i need a lot of hand holding as i can only get so far myself so i would likely cause you more trouble than be of help

17:50 ben_vulpes the local airport is nominally 'international', but only to select destinations and not many into s.a., much less efficiently over to the south atl.
17:50 mircea_popescu i guess this is a point. istanbul is a major airtraffic hub. the us... not.
17:50 ben_vulpes i'm probably going to spend 28hrs traveling both ways, and spend 1.1k
17:50 mircea_popescu kinda like cccp was a "major airtrafic hub" for internal flights only.
17:51 mircea_popescu ben_vulpes crazy.
17:51 ben_vulpes i imagine the forbidden city is a bit more well trafficked.
17:51 ben_vulpes perhaps next year i'll take two weeks off and spend a few days in nyc with friends
