kakobrekla in fairness he prolly never actually met something like this yet. |

danielpbarron |
the one thing the block chain can do is move arbitrary numbers between arbitrary addresses and this works because it all exists totally within itself. The problem with trying to mesh this with things not-in-the-block-chain is that they do not have to obey the rules set forth therein |

blockchain_enthu, I'd re-voice you but I can't think of anything else of interest to add here. If anyone else wants to take a turn... |

00:07 |
blockchain_enthu |
Thanks punkman |
00:09 |
blockchain_enthu |
the only counter point I'd like to make here is this: even though real world items do not follow rules like bitcoins do, but there is a whole system (read legal system) which allows people to do transactions and move things around |
00:10 |
blockchain_enthu |
and so, this would require recognition of block chain transactions as valid transactions in real world |
00:10 |
punkman |
one interesting thing would be land deeds notarized on the bitcoin chain |
00:11 |
blockchain_enthu |
punkman, how do you imagine that would work? |
00:11 |
mircea_popescu |
nobody cares about the legal system |
00:11 |

it's more obsolete than democracy / marriage / working the fields with your hands. |

if you have jurisdiction over an area of land, not a bad thing to do. |
00:12 |
mircea_popescu |
if you do you wouldn't call it that. |
00:13 |
punkman |
call what |
00:13 |
mircea_popescu |
"jurisdiction" |
00:14 |
punkman |
what's a better word? |
00:14 |
mircea_popescu |
not a matter of word picking, i'm just making the point that there's no benefit for the new lord importing the old gunk. |
00:14 |
blockchain_enthu |
isn't land deeds prepared by only one authority? |
00:15 |
blockchain_enthu |
how does block chain make it any different? |
00:16 |
mircea_popescu |
it's not yet established that "land ownership" by the torens method has any room in the future. |
00:17 |
mircea_popescu |
moreover, currently afaik most of the us runs on the barbaric title-deed mechanism anyway. |
00:17 |
mircea_popescu |
so no - no central authority whatsoever. |
00:23 |
punkman |
what if you are the king of malta? |
00:26 |

the 1/2 figure is more 2000era tho. they're better now. |

eneloop is what, 1.2v, lenovo battery 12v, so you'd need 10 of them? |
09:00 |
BingoBoingo |
<asciilifeform> ~voltage~ << 9 in series to get required voltage |
09:00 |
BingoBoingo |
punkman: eneloop is 1.2v lenovo is 10.8 |
09:02 |
BingoBoingo |
9 + charge controller could easily fit inside 6 li-ion cell battery prison's form factor. |
09:03 |
BingoBoingo |
Side effect of this is if weight is actually a concern (it really shouldn't be) AAA cell battery prison could also be offered. |
09:04 |

AAA would take more space |
09:04 |
BingoBoingo |
how? AAA is smaller? |
09:04 |

if you were to have the equivalent of 10 AA I mean |

this, for the record my dear lord mats , is entirely a constructed, deliberate neurosis. there is nothing paralyzing about uncertainity in se. the paralizing bit, much like the horse's bit, or the nail in the grenade, is the expectation of maximal outcome, often doublespoken as "responsibility", and generally internalized as "self respect" or somesuch. |
10:54 |

once you accept that human life is definitionalyl worthless, and ESPECIALLY that of those people you care about (chiefly - your own), uncertainity is no more threatening than atmosphere is overpowering. |

http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=13-02-2016#1404197 looks like you confuse hard radiation (as in gamma/roentgen rays) shielding and RF "radio frequency" shielding |
14:10 |
assbot |
Logged on 13-02-2016 01:30:18; mircea_popescu: because of the fucking impedance in thin fillaments and other considerations, your shit will never work as a straight conductor. |
14:11 |
mircea_popescu |
radiation is a continuum! |
14:11 |
jurov |
but the shielding material necessary is markedly different |
14:12 |
mircea_popescu |
understand : a very thin, insulated fillament is not a piece of shielding, but in turn an antenna. |
14:12 |
mircea_popescu |
and "insulated" is a function of conductivity, which is a function of thickness. |
14:13 |
jurov |
not if it's woven in the grid, only the holes count to RF. |
14:13 |
BingoBoingo |
As of this week gotta be concerned about leaky emissions on the million meter spectrum. |
14:14 |
mircea_popescu |
jurov that's just an engineering rule of thumb, based on some assumptions. |
14:14 |
asciilifeform |
grounded conductor is not an antenna... |
14:14 |
mircea_popescu |
asciilifeform if it is grounded. |
14:15 |
jurov |
and due to skin effect if you use thick but relatively poor conductor you'll get a surprises at > MHz stuff |
14:15 |
mircea_popescu |
an arbitrarily thin filament of an arbitrary length is NOT grounded merely on the grounds that you connected it to a pipe somewhere. |
14:15 |
jurov |
faraday cage works ungrounded either |
14:16 |
jurov |
but to shield shorter wavelength, you need smaller holes in it |
14:18 |
mircea_popescu |
yes, but smaller holes and thinner wires are unrelated items here. |

14:18 |
mircea_popescu |
you don't get an out of jail free card re wires just because "but officer, i needed smaller holes" |
14:24 |
jurov |
ofc, you're welcome to shield your walls with 2mm solid metal. the salesman prolly won't tell you that only first few micrometers count for the nastiest stuff like GSM anyway |
14:24 |
jurov |
these requencies don't penetrate deeper |
14:25 |
jurov |
hence, wowen thin wires work, too. |
14:26 |
mircea_popescu |
the problem of penetration isn't the only consideration here. what you're saying is akin to the proposition that a cpu is only hot on the surface, so only a fool would connect it to 5kg of copper. |

you have to be able to drain the flow. |
14:27 |
BingoBoingo |
connect to buried brine |
14:27 |
jurov |
the EM field induces currents in the conductors, which cancel it. no need to drain these anywhere |
14:28 |
mircea_popescu |
by which logic faraday cage no longer needs to be grounded. |
| |
↖ |
14:28 |
jurov |
of course it does not need |
14:29 |
mircea_popescu |
gee. |
14:29 |
BingoBoingo |
probably best to ground anything that isn't used for explicitly vexual purposes though. |
14:30 |
jurov |
ungrounded faraday cage tends to get charged, which is not easily detectable from within, untill you open it, get out, and touch the ground |
14:31 |
mircea_popescu |
what is the difference between ungrounded faraday cage and dipole antenna ? |
14:31 |
jurov |
but otherwise it does not allow radio frequencies in (when built to spec) |
14:31 |
mircea_popescu |
and plox don't tell me it's the shape. |
14:32 |
jurov |
faraday case encloses you so wellthat it allows currents induced by external RF to cancel it |
14:33 |
mircea_popescu |
so i can not cut a hole into a faraday cage with a proton beam. |
| |
↖ |
14:34 |
jurov |
proton beam !=== RF |
14:34 |
mircea_popescu |
it'll just melt wholesale. |
14:34 |
mircea_popescu |
and how do you make this distinction ? |
14:34 |
jurov |
RF is pulsating electromagnetic field, i.e. photons |
14:34 |
mircea_popescu |
photons have no charge. |
14:36 |
jurov |
the field does. for example the tesla coil causes strong electromagnetic field, which causes surrounding matter to ionise and get electrically charged |
14:37 |
jurov |
at the same time also radiates electromagnetic waves as photos |
14:37 |
jurov |
beause the field isn't DC but AC |
14:38 |
mircea_popescu |
as king arthur once said to trusty sir belvedere, "This new learning amazes me" |
14:38 |
jurov |
but we're going rather far. the original discussion was about shielding microwaves from radio transmission, cellphones etc. |
14:39 |
mircea_popescu |
and you were going to distinguish between far uv and close x-rays on some sort of a basis. other than "cuz i say 3*10^16 and fu" |
14:40 |
jurov |
? |
14:40 |
jurov |
you mentioned yest nuclear cross-sections, they do apply to EUV and x-rays |
14:40 |
mircea_popescu |
anyways. the original discussion was about how you can't make a mesh arbitrarily fine and expect it to still shield anything. |
14:40 |
jurov |
but are utterly irrelevant for microwaves |
14:41 |
jurov |
oooh that, you want to shield these. oook. |
14:41 |
mircea_popescu |
there's a minimal thickness as a function of the material involved that can be used. |
14:42 |
mircea_popescu |
well that's what it was, some derps came out with what struck me on first sight as a sort of "gasoline saving magnets", ie these superthin meshes that'll "protect your monitor from nsa spying" |
| |
↖ |
14:42 |
mircea_popescu |
as a matter of faith working miracles or somesuch. |
14:43 |
jurov |
and you imagined your monitor emits x-rays for nsa to spy on and started considering shielding foir these? |
14:43 |
jurov |
point taken. |
14:43 |
mircea_popescu |
no, i just said that i would expect on the basis of guesswork for indium -group metals to work out as the thinnest functional mesh |
14:44 |
