11:45 mircea_popescu !!up Reuel
11:45 deedbot Reuel voiced for 30 minutes.
11:46 Reuel http://wotpaste.cascadianhacker.com/pastes/TNoAl/?raw=true
11:46 Reuel is the game idea
11:46 Reuel where do I find more about your Eulora suggestion?
11:47 mircea_popescu how do you mean ?
11:48 Reuel you suggested the Eulora text mode conversion, could you tell more about it
11:49 mircea_popescu Reuel your description is badly phrased. for instance in the first paragraph : i encounter the symbol "the best outcome for their nation", but it's not defined nor obviously supported by the introduction. leaving aside that going from "x is defined" to "x is measurable in an algebraic group which permits ordering" which is what "best" implies -- your perspective is globalist and there's no fundamental solution for a national
11:49 mircea_popescu perspective in that context.
11:50 mircea_popescu to put it bluntly it's either that "people vote" or that "their nation". denied middle between these.
11:51 Reuel yeah the introduction can be ignored, this was a work in progress which should become the manual
11:51 Reuel That was more meant to set the tone, and the target audience would be people who vote irl
11:51 mircea_popescu mkay lessee.
11:52 Reuel I hope you can grasp the game cycle from this
11:52 mircea_popescu A job influences what salary a player receives << where's the salary come from ?

11:55 Reuel payout at the start of the turn
11:55 mircea_popescu but ~where~ does it come from ?
11:56 Reuel socialist magic :)
11:56 mircea_popescu you don't grasp the problem with this.
11:57 mircea_popescu consider all the rest of your magic numbers. where does the one in "they can veto the outcome of one national ballot per round." come from ?
11:57 mircea_popescu why is it not 0.984 or 1.1022 ? how do you knwo it isn't ?
11:57 Reuel it;s a in game resource, like ehm... mana? where does it come from
11:58 mircea_popescu "it's a supermarket item like frozen chickens, where do those come from"
11:58 mircea_popescu just because a bunch of irrelevant games are utterly broken means jack. a) eulora isn't broken and will kill them ; and b) nobody wants to play them anyway
11:58 mircea_popescu which is why and how they ended up the equivalent of stripper joints.
11:58 Reuel hmm
11:58 diana_coman Reuel, I suggest you read & a play eulora for a while - it will help you with this
11:59 Reuel I did, and I get the idea, but this is way smaller in scope
11:59 Reuel well youll probably tell me i dont get the idea
12:00 diana_coman what idea do you say you get? (it seems quite likely you did not get it: scope has nothing to do with it)
12:00 mircea_popescu what does size have to do with whether something works or doesn't ? a broken engine is broken at any scale.
12:00 Reuel that nothing in the game is free
12:00 mircea_popescu not exactly. the point is that ~everything's balanced~.
12:00 mircea_popescu salaries come from a social negotiation, not from the fucking white house.
12:01 mircea_popescu when they do come from the central planning committee the country's broken, and collapsing.
12:02 Reuel Yes I agree, irl, but this would be a small time waster, are you saying that any game that gives you "free" resources is bad?
12:02 diana_coman fwiw it sounds to me that Reuel precisely wants to implement the planning committee possibly as a fantasy where he thinks he can *make* it work
12:02 Reuel lol no, but close
12:02 Reuel I hoped to see it crash and burn
12:02 Reuel haha
12:02 mircea_popescu well, i dunno, this may be something you might enjoy but i have no advice about
12:02 mircea_popescu not something i engage in / think about.
12:03 diana_coman Reuel, unbalanced means broken; do you mean you want to implement something broken on purpose to then see then that it...breaks?
12:04 Reuel I would say the meat of the game is in the intrigue around selecting laws that benefit groups or individuals
12:04 Reuel the salaries. locations, jobs, are more of a setting
12:04 mircea_popescu that usually works when there's a solid underlying reality.
12:05 Reuel my idea was more in the sense that, democracy leads to corruption and gaming the system
12:05 mircea_popescu yes but you need some sort of bounds for this to ripple back. otherwise it's just a free expanding system
12:06 mircea_popescu tomorrow i vote to give myself more salary than your platform can support. i mean this literally, 1024! shall be my salary. what then ?
12:06 Reuel well salries are set at the start, there is a national budget which is divided over all players, but certain laws can change the balance
12:06 mircea_popescu "oh you won't be allowed to do that ?" "why not ?" "Ad hoc!" "congrats, you exported the job of designing your game to an os which was not designed to do this"
12:07 Reuel but to get others to vote for laws that increase your groups salariy, you will probably have to either give something else up or promise to
12:08 mircea_popescu how's "let's fuck the gameserver" as a promise ?
12:08 Reuel good point
12:08 mircea_popescu meta will kill you every time BECAUSE if your design is uncompelling people will btod.
12:08 diana_coman Reuel, let me see if I get this straight: you want to implement a "small" scale model of democracy in order to test whether it works; at the same time, you propose to implement it on a model of reality that is purposefully broken because..."scope is too small for it to matter"?
12:09 Reuel hmm, the model might be totally of but the reality of human interaction and bargaining is present, and grouping, deals, promises
12:09 Reuel but yeah
12:10 diana_coman ugh, and you don't see any problem with that?
12:11 Reuel I see the concern, yeah
12:12 Reuel However I do think it would be a game people would enjoy, maybe not bitcoin people though :)
12:14 Reuel I agree the money coming in is like magic, it mirrors gibmedats a bit actually, lol
12:14 Reuel Going to think on this
12:14 diana_coman there will be some people who enjoy X for any X really, not sure what does that do
12:15 diana_coman as to the trouble there: it's more than a concern - it invalidates your "test"
12:15 Reuel In the end art is to make people feel, some art makes sophisticated people feel sophisticated things, some art makes simple people feel simple things, and I guess as a starting artist, Im not that picky yet
12:16 asciilifeform in other lulz, https://archive.is/zcVbY
12:16 Reuel The democracy thing is not the main goal, just a funny side thought
12:16 mircea_popescu !!up Reuel
12:16 deedbot Reuel voiced for 30 minutes.

14:11 asciilifeform in yet-other recent hannobocks, http://archive.is/wqu4J >> 'A coalition of some of the globe’s top researchers and cryptographers are pleading with The Guardian to retract a story it published last week in which it suggested the encrypted messaging app WhatsApp contained a backdoor.'
14:11 asciilifeform coalition!
14:11 asciilifeform didjaknow.
14:11 asciilifeform refuted!
14:12 asciilifeform and of course closed-source-remotely-updated-turd-on-closed-remotely-updated-os-sitting-on-usg.ssl-pki is not 'backdoor', didjaknow also.
14:13 asciilifeform '“The behavior described in your article is not a backdoor in WhatsApp. This is the overwhelming consensus of the cryptography and security community. It is also the collective opinion of the cryptography professionals whose names appear below. The behavior you highlight is a measured tradeoff that poses a remote threat in return for real benefits that help keep users secure…” the letter
14:13 asciilifeform reads.'
14:14 asciilifeform 'A long – and growing – list of respected cryptographers, including Matthew D. Green, a professor at Johns Hopkins University, Bruce Schneier, a fellow at the Berkman Center for Internet and Society at Harvard University, and Matt Blaze, a professor ....'
14:19 mircea_popescu ahahaha what ? consensus ?
14:19 asciilifeform aha! konsensoooos!!
14:19 mircea_popescu well, they're helpfully writing their names down, can't hurt/
14:20 asciilifeform moar names inside.
14:20 asciilifeform and all of them incidentally part of ye olde rogue's gallery of 'security community'
14:20 mircea_popescu aha
14:20 asciilifeform unfailingly appear every time.
14:23 mircea_popescu respected by who the fuck anyway.
14:23 mircea_popescu "respected" "trusted". why ? "because we say so" "but you only say so so as to have said so" "exactly"
14:30 asciilifeform in related lelz, http://wotpaste.cascadianhacker.com/pastes/aDb8c/?raw=true >> d00d who kept massive shed stuffed full of s33kr1tz while working in nsa for 20y denied bail
14:30 asciilifeform some comedic arguments on both sides of the court
14:31 mircea_popescu dun tell me he's an imminent danger
14:32 asciilifeform 'flight risk'
14:32 asciilifeform and 'could have hidden goodz somewhere'
14:33 mircea_popescu heh
14:34 asciilifeform 'So, when Mr. Wyda noted that the Court has already ruled, I'm ruling in accordance with the Bail Reform Act and the fact that the Government has not indicted under more serious offenses. So I am limited by what I can make a determination, and here, I'm limited on the issue of risk of flight. I've listened to both sides carefully, and I think that Mr. Wyda has made some very persuasive arguments.
14:34 asciilifeform No investigation is perfect, and no seizure of evidence is perfect, and there is always this feeling on the Government's side of maybe they've missed something, or maybe they haven't
14:35 asciilifeform gotten all of the information.
14:35 asciilifeform '
14:35 mircea_popescu this is going to be so painful on internal review
14:35 asciilifeform how is it that anyone gets 'bail' in usa again..? ain't there ~always~ 'maybe they haven't gotten everything' ?
14:35 mircea_popescu i don't think bail is intended to exist anymore.
14:36 asciilifeform btw in case anyone forgot: the d00d was arrested right after the rootkit leak. quite likely brass knew about his shed for years, and finally needed scapegoat, and flushed him.
14:36 mircea_popescu the "holds in pocket keys to own cell" doctrine (that, if you recall, superseded habeas corpus in the us "legal" system) has meanwhile pushed through and it's "plea bargain!"
14:36 asciilifeform torquemada alive an' well in usa, aha.
14:40 asciilifeform '...the nature and seriousness of the danger to any person in the community that will be posed by the release, it's clear that the Government sort of paints the Defendant as a walking encyclopedia of classified information. I don't know if that's completely correct, but I do know that he had access to all of this information, and I credit him, and I certainly am glad we're not sitting here talking
14:40 asciilifeform about dissemination of information to foreign powers. But, at the same time, he is a serious risk to the public.'
14:40 asciilifeform risk to the public! didjaknow.
14:41 mircea_popescu how exactly
14:41 mircea_popescu this bizarre nonsense where it's enough to state something
14:41 mircea_popescu what is this, an ivy league "college" ?
14:41 asciilifeform it's a usg court.
14:41 asciilifeform all entirely same thing.
14:42 asciilifeform and 'ivy league college' is where they make the freislers for said courts.
14:42 mircea_popescu pretty sad display in any case.
14:44 asciilifeform btw it'll be a lulzfest if one of these 'shed hoarders' turns out to have deadman switch.
14:46 asciilifeform (prosecution) '...if he ends up in the hands of foreign powers, whether or not it's with his consent, an ankle monitor is not going to prevent him from going down the road and ending up in territory that we can't recover him from.'
14:46 asciilifeform then defense : (approx) 'this applies to everyone in this court room who saw the evidence'
14:47 asciilifeform judge (approx) 'but this man is lawbreaker and we are not'
14:48 mircea_popescu awww, there's territory outside of the territory ?
14:48 mircea_popescu i never knew.
14:50 asciilifeform only exists for this purpose.
14:51 asciilifeform (and certainly not for, e.g., 'oh we won't send cut-throats to nail or kidnap undesirables there')
14:51 mircea_popescu so then the tax is not a tax eh ?
14:51 mircea_popescu riveting.
14:56 asciilifeform mircea_popescu: recall a d00d called vasili mitrokhin ?
14:56 asciilifeform lead archivist of 1st directorate of kgb. also made a shed full of goodies. but in his case, the shed made it through the border, with usg help.
14:57 asciilifeform he got a pension out of it from the reich.
14:57 mircea_popescu vaguely
14:57 asciilifeform lives in, iirc, england, writes trashy pulp b00kz.
14:59 asciilifeform the 1 publicly known 'juicy' tidbit therein was that it contained coordinates for a number of 'buried treasure' arms chests.
14:59 asciilifeform (incl. in usa.)
14:59 asciilifeform plus the usual lists of stoolies.
15:01 mircea_popescu i don't think anyone seriously believes this dude's stuff is not already held by everyone interested in triplicate.
15:03 asciilifeform there are always fresh 'whom to shoot' lists. but not at the bottom of dusty 20 yrs. of shed.

16:50 BingoBoingo ben_vulpes: rust is cancer, but sealing it with paint may slow progesion. prolly safer to stick to "rustoleum" paint over a plastidip/rubberseal product

17:02 BingoBoingo ben_vulpes: If your mission is stopping rust what you want is to seal the area against air and moisture. A thin layer of oil based paint does this. A think rubber or plastic glop is more likely to break its seal because soft. If thin paint breaks seal it should be noticable.
