Yes, Adlai, reddit is inferior to IRC. reddit has an IRC but I haven't used it. I don't trust Facebook. I don't use it, and like to say that it steals your soul. I sort of kind of believe that, in a casual sense, not a real one. It would be blasphemous to suggest it was really true! |

08:40 |

in the bitcoin space, "matching engines" are the equivalent of crusted socks in adolescent boys' bedrooms. |
08:40 |
williamdunne |
nice |
08:40 |
mircea_popescu |
so many of them, made with an apparent firm conviction that somehow they'll bring recognition... |
08:41 |
davout |
yep, because you know, what's really needed and important is that they're able to match 1m orders/s instead a meager 10k orders/s |
08:44 |
jurov |
if someone gave $100k to alf for bitcoind development instead... |
08:44 |
mircea_popescu |
no, because alf needs actual 100k |
08:44 |
mircea_popescu |
as opposed to this kind of 100k |
08:45 |
jurov |
lol true |
08:46 |
williamdunne |
davout: Isn't the point that the in-theory number is about an order of magnitude higher than what it can handle when in actual use |
08:47 |
Naphex |
williamdunne: anyway trading engines are not that hard to write, they do require some experience to get right. |

jurov |
"measured in orders/s P.M.P.O" |
08:48 |
davout |
williamdunne: not really, if the theoretical number is that different from the actual one, you have a problem |
08:49 |
Naphex |
williamdunne: the good option is to hire the right people and develop an engine according to your infrastrucutre and needs |
08:50 |
williamdunne |
davout: Well for example, the Java one that I wrote can match 160k/s when pumping in random data directly. But when we add the overheads for actually accepting and handling orders from customers it will not do close to that |
08:50 |
Naphex |
williamdunne: you aren't doing 'real-matching'. those stats aren't really saying much |
08:50 |
williamdunne |
Naphex: True |
08:50 |
davout |
williamdunne: why? the matching engine should be the only single-threaded bottleneck |
08:51 |
davout |
you can spread order acceptation, and trade settlement, just not the matching |
08:51 |
Naphex |
williamdunne: and with binary insert it can do a lot more then tha |
08:51 |
davout |
and if you can't there's really not that much point in writing something really fast |
08:52 |
williamdunne |
Naphex: True, I still need to take a proper look at that |

Because if more people are able to keep their funds away from government tendrils, it seems like it would do more damage than a few. While a few people have a lot of money to hide, a lot of people can be turned against them (i.e "evil tax avoiders") and violence works |
09:29 |
mircea_popescu |
if violence worked, the situation wouldn't be stable currently. |
09:29 |
mircea_popescu |
what was it, 1% of world pop owns 50% of assets or what ? |
09:30 |
mircea_popescu |
besides, a little bit of violence would go a very long way towards resolving most of the western problems currently. |
09:31 |
williamdunne |
Well yeah, but the violence I'm describing is going against the people who shouldn't be receiving it |
09:31 |
mircea_popescu |
the thing with violence is that it's pretty self-explainatory. |
09:31 |
mircea_popescu |
if you're receiving it, you should have been. |

williamdunne but these aren't involved third parties. so the burned jews are too dead to say, and the burning germans are also too dead to say. at the time however it stands to reason the victims all agreed they shouldn't be victims, and the perpetrator agreed on the contrary pov. |

mircea_popescu: So the violence was just? Sorry I'm struggling to follow. |
09:40 |
mircea_popescu |
violence is always just by its own measure. that's what violence is. |
09:40 |
asciilifeform |
for instance, i regard experience with intel boxes as entirely irrelevant to what a hypothetical proper 'sommelier' would do. |
09:40 |
mircea_popescu |
you might not agree, but it doth not ask you. |
09:40 |
mircea_popescu |
asciilifeform how would you achieve this regard other than through experience ? |
09:41 |
asciilifeform |
mircea_popescu: very much through experience. but i do not know if anyone actually has this kind of experience. |
09:41 |
jurov |
i have seen numerous people stick to one thing only "because of experience" |
09:41 |
asciilifeform |
and data center procurement is the last place i'd expect to find it. |
09:41 |
mircea_popescu |
you similarly don't expect to find experience with cars and car parts at the mechanic's ? |
09:42 |
asciilifeform |
these folks can speak for cost - yes, reliability - sometimes, sure |
09:42 |
williamdunne |
mircea_popescu: So if I were to beat you, it would be just for violence's sake? |
09:42 |
asciilifeform |
but patrons of 'sommelier' are presumably interested in something more |
09:42 |
mircea_popescu |
williamdunne if you manage it, you've managed it, right ? |
09:42 |
williamdunne |
mircea_popescu: But I don't see how that makes it just |
09:43 |
mircea_popescu |
well, "just" only exists in a certain context. in the context of violence itself, there's no space for more functions than "DidItHappen()" which returns a bool. |
09:43 |
jurov |
mircea_popescu: you ever asked multiple automechanics which car is the most reliable? |
09:43 |
mircea_popescu |
if you construct more complex spaces you get "WasItGood()" and "ShouldItHaveHappened()" etc, but now you are also stuck with the complexity. |
09:43 |
jurov |
it's usually 2 people 3 answers situation |
09:43 |
asciilifeform |
mircea_popescu: i would have approached from different angle, and suggested that sommelier must have actual understanding of how the damn thing works. as well as a certain amount of reverse-engineering capability. |
09:43 |

mircea_popescu: Ah okay, right. That make more sense |

09:43 |
mircea_popescu |
asciilifeform yeah but yu're a deductive nut. whereas the job of a sommelier is ipso definitio inductive. |
09:44 |
mircea_popescu |
no sommelier "deduces" what the better wine is on the basis of watching winemaking videos or some shit |
09:44 |
mircea_popescu |
williamdunne so how do you enact that morality ? |
09:44 |
jurov |
well, imagine how would it work. i'll buy 10 kinds of various crap, observe for years how it behaves |
09:44 |
mircea_popescu |
hopefully something more substantial than "most people agree" |
09:44 |
asciilifeform |
mircea_popescu: the data center thing would be ideal, i agree, if anyone actually ran amd-only data centers |
09:44 |
jurov |
and in the meantime they are not manufactured anymore |
09:44 |
asciilifeform |
and jurov has it |

09:45 |
asciilifeform |
attempted to solve, even. |
09:45 |
williamdunne |
mircea_popescu: Well thats hard to summarize with a formulae as its relative. Normally I would favour the person who was most productive prior to said violence |
09:45 |

mircea_popescu |
this "most productive" approach is how you got eminent domain. |
09:47 |

anyway, violence has the marked ethical advantage that it removes people from the goop where they imagine they are in control of their environmenty and the future. |
09:48 |

makes for much more pleasant people. |

"got a chance to look at a bunch up close in a gallery in hawaii, the ink was caked on and cracked all over. He used a bunch of different printers. the actual production of the art was no biggie, he just found images with halftones already and blew them up in a camera, or if he took the polaroids when he was doing all the portraits, he added a halftone small, then blew them up to make them go ratty. rubies were cut (or stencils) for b/g, |
10:43 |

and many times the printers were just given a bunch of colours and combos to work through." |
10:44 |

basically more of the same "warhol is this whore who made a lot of money and we being from america think this is art" |

10:47 |
nubbins` |
if you ever wonder why "grunge texture" got so popular in gig posters and silkscreened art prints |
10:47 |
nubbins` |
it's because the creators didn't know wtf they were doing and were unable to pull clean prints |
10:47 |
mircea_popescu |
lol |
10:47 |

so they added "grunge texture" in photoshop to cover up their shit technique |

20:10 |
BingoBoingo |
mircea_popescu: Josh Hamilton: great but not-elite baseball player relapsed into his booze and blow habit. Started sucking at baseball right after Los Angles's other baseball team signed him for 125 million dollars over 5 years. They are trading him to Texas and eating 90% of the remaining payroll. |
20:11 |
BingoBoingo |
Texas gets him for 7 million dollars over 3 years, The other Los Angeles team pays the remaining 76 million dollars so he can play for this other team. |
20:11 |
mircea_popescu |
ahaha |

20:12 |

Quite a bit older than Mutu. Hamilton also played for the Texas team before, in his past life when he was good. |
20:13 |
mircea_popescu |
aha |
20:13 |
BingoBoingo |
But when he went to LA coach made him quit chewing tobacco in the dugout and... It's hard to smash a baseball at an elite level while in the throes of nicotine withdrawal |

"he followed industry standards" so immunity. |
20:15 |

Well the whole ownership group of that team is fucked. They have about a Billion dollars tied up in contracts of people they signed just as their careers had peaked. |
20:15 |
mircea_popescu |
heh |
20:16 |

Seriously they sign Albert Pujols to a quarter Billion dollar contract and the next year... Their best player is a cost controlled rookie. |

Four years later, Rookie isn't quite as cost controlled and still their best player |
20:21 |

Josh Hamilton though is basically the Carl Mark Force IV of Los Angeles Sports. Devil couldn't pay enough to secure his love and clean living. |
20:22 |
BingoBoingo |
The Trout kid they got the cheap MVP years out of is still ok. They haven't broken him. Seems like he has staying power when the wikipedos say: "On April 17, 2015, Trout became the youngest player in MLB history to reach 100 home runs and 100 stolen bases.[100] He was 23 years and 253 days old when he reached the milestone, passing the previous record-holder, Alex Rodriguez, who had achieved it at the age of 23 years and 309 days |

the block inclusion is the closest thing you get to synchronous comms |
23:15 |
asciilifeform |
mempool is a fart in the wind |
23:15 |
ben_vulpes |
what's so important about synchrony? |
23:15 |
asciilifeform |
having the slightest reason to think that the message made it to other end ? |
23:17 |
asciilifeform |
and other thing is, clients have tremendous incentive to drop mempool tx that is an obvious non-candidate for block |
| |
↖ |
23:17 |
asciilifeform |
the fact of currently-existing clients doing this half-heartedly, changes little |
23:17 |
ben_vulpes |
what is the incentive for a client to maintain anything in the mempool? |
23:18 |
asciilifeform |
what is the incentive to run a node at all ? |
23:19 |
ben_vulpes |
seriously, because i'm retarded: what is the incentive to keep a tx in the mempool that will be included in a block but not one that won't? |
| |
↖ |
23:19 |
asciilifeform |
one that won't - is garbage |
23:19 |
asciilifeform |
that is to say, something not properly 'of bitcoin' |
23:19 |
asciilifeform |
and sooner thrown out, the more room for legit tx. |
23:19 |
asciilifeform |
this is not a 'moral judgement' but clean observation re: what makes for an effective node |

asciilifeform |
just as rejecting obvious ddos is part of same |
23:20 |
ben_vulpes |
hm |
23:20 |
asciilifeform |
my sketch for 'telegraph' was based on the axiom that only that which is irrevocably part of bitcoin proper, is worth building on |
23:21 |
asciilifeform |
whereas items that are 'poorly bolted down', and could tear loose, esp. in the face of tremendous pressure by enemy to disable telegraph - are not a foundation for anything |
23:21 |

and the sooner they die, in fact, the better. |
