01:19 BingoBoingo "To put specific numbers on this, the report notes that studies consistently find that more than 90% of prison rapes are inter-racial and racially motivated. Blacks are found to be some 80% of the perpetrators, and whites are the vast majority of victims. Again, this is easily accessible in a peer-reviewed report published at a mainstream outlet. (So how are desegregated prisons working out for us now, huh?)"
~ 8 hours 9 minutes ~
09:28 mircea_popescu BingoBoingo i'd say they're working great.
09:29 mircea_popescu contrary to pretense, under 1% of those are actual rapes, as defined by the only proper measure : "did you fight first ?"
09:29 mircea_popescu whiteboy gets what he always wanted and was too scared to ask for.

10:20 diana_coman ahahaha "like mircea popescu or whatever his name is, but even with him i suspect he's not anywhere near as rich as he wants people to think he is - it doesn't add up; poorly fitted suits, average looking hotel suites/condos, spends all his time living in cheap shitholes which is precisely what white people who have money to live abroad but aren't rich do)" ; from ^^
10:24 mircea_popescu sure
10:25 mircea_popescu though mostly quoted for the fundamental prpblem -- these are college educated or educating esltards (maybe not ALL at MIT, but if you're on the internet.en you're either out of or currently in college) WHO DO NOT KNOW HOW TO BECOME MILLIONAIRES.
10:25 mircea_popescu can this be underscored enough ? i doubt it.
10:26 mircea_popescu the only fucking reason, point and selling characteristic of anglo college is "making money", and there's no quantum below 1 million dollars.
10:26 mircea_popescu yet... they do not know how to do it. AVERAGE salaries in the collegiate fields are about 100k/year, that means a 1mn income EACH DECADE, for AVERAGE performance
10:26 mircea_popescu and these kids dunno how to be millionaires.
10:26 mircea_popescu wut gives ?
10:27 mircea_popescu complete and utter failure of the "social contract", at that. it's like a sailing school that fails to produce sailors, this ourdemocracy that fails to produce millionaires.
10:27 mircea_popescu why the fuck else was anyone even watching the vhs tapes ?!

10:43 asciilifeform http://btcbase.org/log/2017-11-23#1742442 << much smaller than this, if you count what % they get to ~keep~. end up with '3rd world' figure.

10:45 asciilifeform 'LEGIT TESTOSTERONA OF HIGH QUALITY POWEDER DOESNT LEAVE YOU NO OPTIONS' << lol!!
10:46 asciilifeform hey BingoBoingo wtf is a 'testosterona' ? boiled goat balls, straight from 1950s quackeries ?
10:47 asciilifeform 'just be female theory strikes again'
10:47 asciilifeform what am i even reading, 'looksmax.net' ?!?
10:48 asciilifeform 'You can also try to solve one of the 7 millennium math problems for 1m each.' << hey there's a neglected get-rich-and-famous scheme!
10:49 asciilifeform 'If you want to make real money in crypto, you don't get attached to one coin and you don't hodl, you also don't put all your money in bitcoin either, instead you do coin hopping' << didjaknow!!
10:57 mircea_popescu asciilifeform no but that's the very point!
10:58 mircea_popescu the complaint re mp's perceived lifestyle neartly folds into the general problem : "i think mp might be a millionaire as usg defined that term for me, but it seems in a sense fake, because he doesn't display the markers usg trained me to recognize. i wonder, if usg controls my perception of my own wants in the sense of defining how their perceptible form looks, why i don't get to be a millionaire ?"
10:58 mircea_popescu the discussion is readily mappable to its perfect equivalent which we oh so often rehash here : "i wonder what microsoft issued extension makes my operating system secure ?"
10:59 mircea_popescu "tmsr claims to be more powerful than the us, but i have my doubts, because their software doesn't even unicode."
10:59 mircea_popescu yes, schmucky mcschmuckersson, the REASON your software can't be powerful is EXACTLY that your software unicodes. not for the unicode itself, but for what the unicode IS.
11:01 mircea_popescu and so on and forever until we fall over, "how could i get everything i need and it'll only ever be something i wanted ???".
11:01 mircea_popescu hurr.
11:08 asciilifeform moar perplexing is wtf that forum is to begin with
11:08 mircea_popescu exactly like reddit, a website someone made in the hopes of becoming a millionaire.
11:09 mircea_popescu on it, the future of that country gathers.

11:09 whaack http://btcbase.org/log/2017-11-21#1741795 << I have code to take his blocks and count up all the satoshis in the outputs that have undeterminable destinations. This is not very useful without also subtracting the coins when they are spent. This requires storing the txn hash and output index while I count up the satoshis. However ben_vulpes's api does not provide the txn hash and I have no CL code (yet) to calculate it.
11:09 a111 Logged on 2017-11-21 21:25 asciilifeform: whaack: not difficult to add up all of the various 'softfork' liquishit tho -- it shows up as 'cannot decode' on ben_vulpes's blockviewer
11:09 whaack Ultimately what I want to build is a tool to determine how much a miner can obtain by "defecting" from segwit from the current mempool
11:09 mircea_popescu how the hell could it not provide the txn hash
11:09 asciilifeform whaack: i posted an ada block eater a while back, do you have a copy ?
11:10 mircea_popescu what, it reserializes txn ?
11:10 whaack well the txn hash is provided as the inputs in the future blocks but each new txn in a block does not provide a copy of its hash as well afaik
11:10 mircea_popescu hm
11:11 asciilifeform ( mine did not process scripts and so is currently of 0 direct use for whaack's item. but it does show how to compute tx hash )
11:11 asciilifeform mircea_popescu: a tx does not carry own hash inside it ( how could it ), one has to compute it on the fly
11:11 whaack I do not have a copy
11:11 asciilifeform whaack: gimme a min
11:12 mircea_popescu asciilifeform yes but the hash is also the only sane index to txn
11:12 asciilifeform aha
11:12 mircea_popescu unless you actually go block44.txn7th, which is technically how spending goes, but anyway, i didn't expect he did that.

11:17 mircea_popescu quite.
11:17 mircea_popescu also that ballas quote re giving up the capital.
11:18 mircea_popescu "Of course the idea is to get rich-- which sounds like capitalism, if you're retarded, but observe the message that is being taught: that the necessary correlate to getting rich is to give all the capital to someone else. The power is traded for the fetish of power. That's not capitalism, it is madness, and apparently Davos and Randi think women especially will heart it."
11:19 mircea_popescu in similar news, "i don't think jakob fugger was really all that rich -- after all, he didn't even have an ipad".
11:20 phf re upstack, there's been a resurgence of sorts of gopher protocol, various hipsters spinning up personal websites, etc. whether the resurgence was shortlived or i'm just late to the game, but there's already a community of wreckers (one of them groups is coming from this federated twitter platform, mastodon) discussing all the various ways that they want to "improve" gopher, tls, utf-8, markdown renderer, "minimal subset of html", etc. but at the same
11:20 phf time "gopher is awesome, because it's so simple and pure", yeah, before you fuckers decided to show up.

11:21 mircea_popescu is no longer unrelated at all. IT IS JUST A RESTATEMENT OF THE SAME THING!
11:21 mircea_popescu "in order to get rich (as usg defines that term) in crypto you gotta trade... the crypto... for the fetish of crypto!!11". see ? the lesson's well learned.
11:23 phf the frequency at which the word "modern" is used in those conversations is making me nauseous
11:25 phf naturally every other account is pronouns sensitive, lgbt, suicidal, "anti nazi", genderqueer, etc. thanksgiving is an opportunity to talk about how their toxic parents don't understand them, etc.
11:26 phf i was initially pissed off, but now i'm just sad, that babbage quote is very apropos
11:27 mircea_popescu not much there to get pissed of AT.

11:30 phf i keep expecting another trilema executing a coordinated strategy, but once you spend a few days living amongst them, you realize that there's nothing there, so yes.
11:30 * whaack takes a look.
11:30 mircea_popescu hey, many girls are seeking and have been long seeking, and never yet found anything.
11:30 asciilifeform whaack: posted simply so that you can see how tx hashes come to exist
11:31 asciilifeform but it is in fact a complete block-eater, with the exception that it does nothing useful with scripts.
11:31 asciilifeform diana_coman and other ada n00bz may find the item interesting, it is a complete proggy ( in the bare bone sense )

11:32 asciilifeform whaack: if yer in a hurry you can skip straight to transactions.adb .
11:33 whaack asciilifeform: okay I plan to use ironclad to do the actual hashing in the cl implementation unless there is a better recommendation
11:33 asciilifeform whaack: if you have the time, why not write a sha256 from scratch in cl. it's a needed, unfortunately, piece. and afaik there isn't a proper one published.

11:33 asciilifeform phf possibly could correct me if this is not so
11:34 phf mircea_popescu: i'm still sad about that branson photo, every time i remember it, just have to shake my head

11:36 mircea_popescu this much is not actually true.

11:36 mircea_popescu flea-irritated skin is preferred by fleas.
11:36 asciilifeform ( do fleas quorum-sense ? )
11:36 mircea_popescu lice too. which is why only "Some kinds of girls" get it in school.
11:37 mircea_popescu most parasitosis works that way, actually. there is such a thing as a rich guy's tuberculosis immunity. or, for that matter, aids.

Keep doing what you're doing, or do what we're doing. Either is wonderful" etc.
11:38 asciilifeform mircea_popescu: afaik proper aids immunity is a vanishingly rare item, and poorly understood yet
11:38 asciilifeform phf: lol tolerasts
11:39 mircea_popescu phf the difference in tone from the exact same item pushing bitcoin forks is that the gopher forks people have no one to fear in gopher.
11:39 mircea_popescu asciilifeform i didn't mean proper immunity, i just meant...
11:40 mircea_popescu actually, here's what i meant : vai de omu' sarac, nici boii nu-i trag, ii cade pita-n cicat si cind fute da de cui.

11:40 asciilifeform pretty sure i get it

11:45 ben_vulpes whaack: i hastily stripped the cl i use behind mimisbrunnr for block parsing and transaction extracting into this tar for you: cascadianhacker.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/11/blockparser.tgz
11:45 ben_vulpes it is some very embarassingly java-flavored CLOS, read it with a skeptical eye
11:46 ben_vulpes i figure you can stitch it into a fare-friendly (asdf) form, if you have trouble or its missing bits let me know, 'tis a very hasty rip job
11:47 * ben_vulpes will also read asciilifeform 's ada cutter
11:48 asciilifeform ben_vulpes: it's pretty simple, makes use of ada's programmable stream
11:48 phf asciilifeform: i recall their being tight hashing code, but every time i do the same thing and discover that it was sb-md5 (and there's a corresponding cmucl prior art), so no proper shasum
11:48 phf *there
11:48 asciilifeform phf: iirc the sha256 in 'ironclad' is simply a c wrapper around turdssl
11:48 ben_vulpes ironclad needs a 'libressl'ing imho
11:48 phf asciilifeform: no! you keep saying that, ironclad is 0 ffi
11:48 asciilifeform hm
11:49 asciilifeform so it has a working sha2 already ?
11:49 asciilifeform and incidentally if phf knows this, possibly he studied it and is ready to genesis his personal copy ?
11:49 phf src/digests/sha1.lisp
11:49 phf src/digests/sha256.lisp
11:49 phf src/digests/sha512.lisp
11:50 asciilifeform if 'ironclad' is a worthy thing , it oughta be genesised
11:51 asciilifeform !~later tell whaack when testing 'horse', verify that the bin turd produced as file 'out' is identical to the input block. this means that the parser worx.
11:51 jhvh1 asciilifeform: The operation succeeded.
11:51 phf maybe, but only as "presented as found". froydnj said in a few places, that he doesn't think ironclad is there yet as far as being used for production crypto. and we had a thread (with ben_vulpes) where we discovered that sha512 (!!!) had a bug
11:51 ben_vulpes phf: do you know anything about the 'sharplispers'?
11:52 ben_vulpes phf: bug was also fixed at some point
11:52 phf yeah, was fixed in master, but not in quicklisp production, my point is mostly "what other wonders are there". like you said needs libressling
11:53 asciilifeform i gotta ask, what means 'libressling'
11:53 ben_vulpes also ironclad rsa padding is notquiteright, trinque i believe knows a bit more
11:53 asciilifeform iirc 'libressl' was an attempted whitewashing of openssl turd by the usual suspects.
11:53 asciilifeform ben_vulpes: nobody's rsa padding is worth two shits
11:54 ben_vulpes asciilifeform: did not actually work i mean.
11:54 ben_vulpes created messages that were undecipherable iirc
11:54 mircea_popescu asciilifeform yes buit it ended up not being needed, the "community" "consensused" that "openssl is okay" np.
11:54 mircea_popescu the libre bs was in case of orange revolution.
11:55 asciilifeform backup prong aha.
11:55 ben_vulpes i mean an ideal republican gutting.
11:55 mircea_popescu then what's wrong with tmsrizing.
11:55 ben_vulpes perhaps shoulda said "needs a stan/mpi style gutting"
11:55 ben_vulpes sure, tmsrification
11:56 phf ben_vulpes: sharplispers i believe is the #lisp crowd who maintain "abandoned" packages (mostly for the purposes of xach having somewhere to git clone things from for his quicklisp). i know xach, luis oliveira, and nikodemus siivola, the last one being a proper hacker

13:41 mircea_popescu ben_vulpes i don't get ~anything about how the brains of these people work, so far. asking questions didn't get me much further, moved on to proposing prototypes, which... is going nowhere.
13:41 ben_vulpes i don't want to try reimplementing emacs shittily for the browser, server-side.
13:42 mircea_popescu just the parens highlight thing doesn't seem that gnarly. am i naive ?
13:44 ben_vulpes shouldn't be that bad, no. i still don't understand the why of it. after five minutes of working with lisp the parens should disappear into background bookeeping on any usable brainsubstrate
13:44 mircea_popescu myeah.
13:45 ben_vulpes like if you need colorized parens whatever you're working on has definitely escaped your ability to hold it in your head.
13:46 mircea_popescu tbh an ~hour later my patience with teh #lisp is waning fast. yes it's not cohesive a la catv-org or whatever other dorkitudes we examined prior, which means there's no specific failure mode. but this doesn't mean much, it vaguely flails like an ooze and well...

13:58 mircea_popescu "room has no owner, therefore evidently no possible utility." and so on.
13:58 asciilifeform to have ideology is sorta like the coherence of laser light.

14:07 mircea_popescu not an idle consideration
14:08 asciilifeform imho it is an approachable thing. but i haven't yet the pill.
14:08 asciilifeform could restate as the q of whether 'distance from ideal otp' is a quantifiable matter .

16:14 phf ok, i have some idea why http://btcbase.org/log/2017-11-23#1742652 because i've done it in the past. when you're debugging issues for complete newbs, you basically instinctually looking for two things, imbalanced parenthesis and misuse of intrinsics. yeah you could copy paste that stuff to your emacs buffer, but if what you're doing is essentially social service work, you get burned out on doing deep help pretty fast, hence you want to keep it in the p

16:38 mircea_popescu the idiot author of the linked piece is too fucking dumb to answer emails to his god damned own contact email as provided by patreon, notwithstanding he evidently is fucking starving. ho the fuck even told these schmucks they're at liberty to you know, "make own decisions" such as not pick up phone from god ?
16:38 mircea_popescu but anyway -- does anyone want to go through all of deviantart until they find either something like that or something that doesn't suck ? for the purpose of helping the first tmsr appointed artist get his appointment ?

16:40 shinohai oh ill bug the oc artist above intensively
16:40 mircea_popescu lmao no no
16:40 mircea_popescu OTHER ones is the idea.
16:40 mircea_popescu this one... whatever, learn to answer.
16:40 shinohai u just want to look @ similar ones?
16:40 BingoBoingo Not picking up phone from God is disqualifying via character defect
16:40 mircea_popescu i don't even care if they're similar per se, just as long as they're good.

17:02 phf misplaced parenthesis is tricky to debug from the error messages, in fact i usually can't. i can usually intuit that the error is probably a result of misplaced parent, but then i still have to go an track it down
17:04 phf i mean, a _misplaced_ parenthesis will result in a valid parse, but the error is going to be something along the lines of "error while parsing arguments to special form" or "argument x is not a number" or "function call with n arguments, but wants exactly m"

23:39 phf heh, we now also have a heathen logger.
23:39 mircea_popescu i invited him, actually.
23:42 * phf nods
23:42 mircea_popescu possibly the most logged channel on freenode, by now.
23:43 phf i like some features that he has, live updates, also the convention of <date>#<id>;<filter>
23:44 phf so, e.g. https://irclog.whitequark.org/trilema/2017-11-24#20622825;heathen
23:44 phf err, wait that actually made no sense..
23:44 mircea_popescu seems to work, like a search.
23:45 phf well, right, it highlights a specific post, but also filters, so ...#;foo works as a whole day filter
23:47 mircea_popescu not a terrible idea, imo.
23:51 mircea_popescu in fact, a per-day filtered-histogram could conceivably be very fucking useful hunting down large topics.
23:51 mircea_popescu put one pixel line per day, from top to bottom, counting the occurences of $filter.
23:53 phf that would be a useful feature, that's almost like a part of search functionality
23:53 mircea_popescu sorta numerically enhanced topic finding.
23:54 phf because #; in question is a javascript and for a specific day. since we use links for xref, i'm not sure what the semantic value of linking is going to be in that case. also mandatory javascript
23:55 mircea_popescu not mandatory js at all, can do this server side
23:55 mircea_popescu make a call like histograph?derpage, puts out a png with the histograph for that item
23:55 phf oh you mean your example, not what whitequark has
23:55 mircea_popescu well yes.
23:57 mircea_popescu i don't think the functionality as such is particularly useful, i prefer the search. however the perspective actually is, filters would prolly empower the searching mind.
23:57 mircea_popescu some kind of noun density or such.
23:59 mircea_popescu phf you know what you could do, add it to search pages. would that be a lot of cpu ? to spit out a png maybe 2k x 200 tall, and link it from a compressed version on the search page.
