00:53 ave1 Concratulations on the most pantsuits solution: http://btcbase.org/log/2018-02-13#1783596
00:53 a111 Logged on 2018-02-13 23:19 mod6: Alright, the Bitcoin Foundation has been discussing all day about using funds to support the bbisp. We are ready to make that commitment.
00:54 mod6 lol pantsuits?
00:54 ave1 Now if it is a success, we have this powerfull *foundation* (with rules and bylaws etc etc)
00:55 ben_vulpes thanks, ave1
00:55 ben_vulpes remind me of what these rules and bylaws are again?
00:57 ave1 If it is a failure, no one is to blame
00:57 ben_vulpes how does that follow from my and mod6 personal responsibility for everything the foundation does
00:58 ben_vulpes what, we release a trb that steals your coins and somehow nobody is to blame? get real
~ 52 minutes ~
01:50 lobbes yeah ave1, I'm not sure how you arrived at that conclusion. Foundation is two guys who each have a distinct identity that can be impaled by the forum's punishment gazette at any time. I fail to see the pantsuit properties of the solution
~ 50 minutes ~
02:40 ave1 color me embarrassed and properly chastised
02:40 ave1 I seem to have tripped over the name *foundation*
02:40 ave1 I hereby apologise to lord mod6
02:42 ave1 I hereby apologise to lord ben_vulpes
02:44 ave1 I will reread the charter and all other relevant documents

Well, while I'm not opposed to having lobbesbot take over jhvh1 functionality, I still have much in the hopper already (e.g. getting archive bulk-download into production).

05:06 a111 Logged on 2017-02-21 22:44 mircea_popescu: ben_vulpes speaking of house, the BEST THING father can do for his daughter, aged 9 to 19, is make sure she has abundant, clean protein available. no meal without salmon, fine beef, shrimp, pump her full of 100g of protein a day.

09:14 mircea_popescu gmorning #trilema
09:14 * mircea_popescu wasn't going to read the logs ; but then hanbot insisted. all the better.
09:15 mircea_popescu mod6 i'm not against you taking over ; but mind that as you also mention, BingoBoingo 's problem wasn't lack of access to capital (i dunno why this keeps being the expectation, as it's scarcely yet been the case, we're drastically overcapitalized is the entire fucking problem to begin with). BingoBoingo 's problem was lack of access to middle management, and it nigh on killed him. so for this to work, that's the key element.
09:18 mircea_popescu that aside, i don't necessarily want to be paid cash or anything ; carry the same http://btcbase.org/log/2018-02-11#1783243 on the books alongside whatever you're adding via the foundation and it'll be fine.
09:18 a111 Logged on 2018-02-11 13:57 mircea_popescu: alternatively, i have no problem taking say 1.5 worth of absolutely senior convertible equity in your continuant venture, however you call it.
09:21 mircea_popescu http://btcbase.org/log/2018-02-12#1783451 << very much that exactly. the pantsuit rides on a high and mighty horse of "oh, capitalists don't account for ALL the externalities", hence its trojan horse of "environmentalism", because mind you that people making the civilisation run haven't in their ledger of costs and benefits a line for the obscure pondfish of extinction, and this, while epsilon, IS TILL NOT ZERO!!! concerntrol
09:21 a111 Logged on 2018-02-12 19:55 lobbes: http://btcbase.org/log/2018-02-12#1783439 << this thread puts much in perspective. In all my arguments with socialist aquaintances, it always seems like it boils down to "well, if there's failure that just means we haven't tried xyz magical configuration of policies yet!". I.e. "goal posts" can be moved ad infinitum (in their eyes, that is)
09:21 mircea_popescu olol.
09:22 mircea_popescu MEANWHILE, however, they have 100% unaccounted for the time externality. so basically it's a contest consisting of a guy without legs going about finding fault with people's fingers. because he's decided "legs don't count", and so as he has much better hands than the rest of those losers he should be captain of the football team.
09:23 mircea_popescu somehow we're asked to forgive the plain fact that pantsuit's socialist paradise will NEVER come, because let's all focus on how some species got extincted for sucking bad enough to need the measure.
09:23 asciilifeform ohai mircea_popescu
09:23 asciilifeform typo in your mice, 'pard' - 'part' ?
09:23 mircea_popescu a ty
09:25 asciilifeform mircea_popescu: wb btw. i for one thought that mircea_popescu was tired of teaching his kindergarten..
09:25 mircea_popescu no, im gonna make it a coupla times a week. and even read logs now and again.
09:27 asciilifeform i'ma not spoil the bisp surprise tho, will wait till its new commander wakes up, speaks.
09:27 BingoBoingo ben_vulpes might be able to supply middle management if he takes an active interest in this venture. But as per http://www.thedrinkingrecord.com/2018/02/13/a-summary-of-bbisp-activity/#comment-114709 I would like to see new management present at least one plan where they envision keeping the corpse warm for a month and pulling the plug if they find it unfeasible in a way that allows BingoBoingo to survive in a position no wosre than
09:27 BingoBoingo after his recent attempt to fly to the sun.
09:27 mircea_popescu how you hodling up ?
09:28 BingoBoingo mircea_popescu: One day at a time. This has been good for my AA basics even if the local AA seems more cargo cult as my spanish improves.
09:29 BingoBoingo But with the IspWish... With a mircea_popescu venture I had a good idea I was playing with a knife. I have a lot of uncertainty what a mod6, ben_vulpes, alf coalition offers that mircea_popescu didn't other than padding and yet to be determined quality of middle management. If they present an escape plan it would provide a lot of comfort.
09:29 mircea_popescu it's funny what parts turn out rotten/unreliable huh. you'd think there's nothing intrinsically orc about AA, it's a fundamental human thing, how could they botch it ?!
09:29 mircea_popescu then you discover muslims don't know how to fuck, either, and realise that no, being an orc is a very substantial thing. it's not just foreign / neologistic items they fuck up.
09:30 mircea_popescu they're fuckups altogether, as a substance not as a coincidental, environment-driven property.
09:30 mircea_popescu sure as waterlillies nobody put an import tax on AA, there or anywhere else. and yet.
09:30 BingoBoingo Seriously.
09:31 mircea_popescu orc can't be honest. not because doesn't want to or anything, but because honesty requires a live intelligence.
09:32 asciilifeform this particular observation ( mircea_popescu had a 'liars can't invent' article ) i found fascinating and tried several times to write a piece in application re particular historic charlatans , but failed to say anyffingnew
09:33 BingoBoingo Finding someone here to do Step 5 with here was a challenge for that reason.
09:35 mircea_popescu can't you call any of the old time folk in the us ?
09:36 BingoBoingo I have been doing that, but for Step 5 it doesn't seem right if you can't look the other person in the eye
09:36 mircea_popescu there is that.
09:36 BingoBoingo Gotta have a live intelligence to reflect against, to get the relief outta being honest
09:43 mircea_popescu http://btcbase.org/log/2018-02-13#1783476 << crowdsourced middle management is a rather terrible idea ; are you familiar with say the potemkin rebellion, or generally the early (properly soviet) phase of russian revolution ?

10:02 mircea_popescu BingoBoingo something like that.
10:03 mircea_popescu but yes, the fundamental reason i didn't say no to uy (in preference of say, hk) is specifically that asia has a bw problem.

11:12 asciilifeform quasi-relatedly, seems like BingoBoingo has already not 1 but 2 working and synced trb nodez
11:12 asciilifeform i somehow missed this
11:13 BingoBoingo asciilifeform: It is one bitcoind instance talking outta two ips.
11:24 mircea_popescu pretty vool.
11:24 mircea_popescu cool*
11:29 BingoBoingo It turns out trb doesn't bind to a port. Thusly if you change the myip parameter other boxes will talk to it on the old ip out of habit in addition to the new.
11:33 asciilifeform BingoBoingo: at the risk of pedantry , it binds indeed to a port, http://btc.yt/lxr/satoshi/source/src/net.cpp?v=makefiles#1174 , BUT! , does not bind ~to one ip~ , http://btc.yt/lxr/satoshi/source/src/net.cpp?v=makefiles#1206
11:33 asciilifeform prolly oughta be fixed.
11:33 BingoBoingo Ah
11:33 BingoBoingo The pedantry in this case is appreciated.
11:33 asciilifeform BingoBoingo: congrats incidentally on uncovering the must-fix-itude of this
11:34 mircea_popescu not so clear why it needs to be fixed ?
11:34 BingoBoingo Not necessarily a must fix. We have a cheap and easy hack to fill a fuckton of ip space if necessary.
11:34 mircea_popescu i've been usinfg it for years.
11:34 asciilifeform i also using for years. but suppose you wanted to run two instances of trb on one box, on separate ips.
11:35 mircea_popescu why ?
11:35 asciilifeform (why, is separate q : perhaps a testing trb, and a classical trb ? )
11:35 mircea_popescu the concept of separation here is meaningless.
11:35 mircea_popescu even if you do so run two, you still want both to see the whole "pool"
11:35 asciilifeform fact of the matter is that all reasonably well-behaved socket proggies take a config as to where to bind
11:35 asciilifeform rather than 'bahahaha i'ma take up whole box'
11:35 mircea_popescu apparently not.
11:36 mircea_popescu the concept of "separation" is not useful.
11:36 asciilifeform what's the use of plugging >1 ip addr into a box, if all the proggies get served on all of'em
11:36 mircea_popescu that the heathens can't discern how many boxes
11:37 mircea_popescu strictly, STRICTLY that.
11:37 asciilifeform but in this case , observe, they ~can~
11:37 mircea_popescu you didn't.
11:37 BingoBoingo Only because it has been mentioned
11:37 asciilifeform ( i didn't bother to. but eventually would notice that when one is hanging, so is other )
11:37 mircea_popescu maybe bad switch
11:38 asciilifeform similarly a heathen could get himself malleused and notice that both 'separate' nodes simultaneously disconnect him
11:38 BingoBoingo Ironically when I tried to force bitcoind onto one ip through an iptables rule that did make it hang. Since I stopped trying that it hasn't hung.
11:39 asciilifeform at any rate this is an easy patch if somebody finds a reason to patch it.
11:39 BingoBoingo <asciilifeform> similarly a heathen could get himself malleused and notice that both 'separate' nodes simultaneously disconnect him << At this point heathen is expending effort
11:40 BingoBoingo Anyways patch might be to introduce a bindip= param in the .config
11:48 ben_vulpes http://btcbase.org/log/2018-02-14#1783842 << BingoBoingo needs supervision and tasking at a (micro-)scale that mircea_popescu understandably has zero interest in providing. now this may be a case of http://btcbase.org/log/2018-02-10#1783173, but if building an isp for tmsr isn't worth bleeding for i don't know what is and so this is the breach into which i intend to step.

11:53 mircea_popescu so good for you.
11:54 mircea_popescu wasn't this your previous employment also, iirc ?
11:54 ben_vulpes ayup.
11:54 mircea_popescu how bad can things possibly turn out.
11:55 ben_vulpes ave1 seems to think i'll need a new key
11:55 ben_vulpes but i dunno about that
11:55 mircea_popescu you do ?
11:55 ben_vulpes oh i'm just ribbing him for last night
11:55 mircea_popescu if you're a smart guy, you just use this to prop castle ben_vulpes into existence. you two need a place to confer, and it doesn't properly belong here unless there's some kind of larger problem, so for day to day ops... you gotr a fodder.
11:56 ben_vulpes aha
12:01 BingoBoingo mircea_popescu: It was the thought behind suggesting ben_vulpes for that role here, after the results of send a Librarian to South America... some decisions probably gotta get more conservative http://btcbase.org/log/2018-02-14#1783781
12:01 a111 Logged on 2018-02-14 14:27 BingoBoingo: ben_vulpes might be able to supply middle management if he takes an active interest in this venture. But as per http://www.thedrinkingrecord.com/2018/02/13/a-summary-of-bbisp-activity/#comment-114709 I would like to see new management present at least one plan where they envision keeping the corpse warm for a month and pulling the plug if they find it unfeasible in a way that allows BingoBoingo to survive in a position no wosre than

12:48 ben_vulpes i have one 1U slot open in my next courier run to .uy, if anyone wants their machine couriered down speak NOW or i'm going to fill it with a box of my choice
12:48 ben_vulpes asciilifeform: also hilarious was the wank in pantsuit news recently about omfg nk made so much money evading sanctions and who would evade sanctions!
12:49 asciilifeform ben_vulpes: this 1 slot, this is after 2 (of 3 queued) snsa crates ?
12:51 ben_vulpes well you've got the 1 machine that's ready to ship right now, dulap yhes? and then of the 2 remaining diskless gotta a) get disk in 'em and b) get mircea_popescu to okay their installation
12:51 ben_vulpes so it's 1 slot after 1 of 3 s.nsa machines; let's fill it with another s.nsa machine.
12:52 ben_vulpes mircea_popescu: you ordered these boxes from asciilifeform and then threw hands up over the whole thing; still want them disked and racked any preference on which?
12:54 asciilifeform 1 (dulap) disked; other 2 want disks ( can be filled within 2-3 days after mp writes in re what he wants in'em )
12:55 ben_vulpes so asciilifeform you see why i'm advertising the slot?
12:55 asciilifeform and additionally if he wants FGs in the 2, how many in each ( the max that fits comfortably is 2 ) , and they must then be subtracted from the inventory.

12:56 ben_vulpes ohai jurov
12:56 jurov_moving hi!
12:56 asciilifeform dare i to ask, where'ya moving to, jurov_moving , and from where ?
12:57 jurov_moving Bought a house for btc back in october, this week we're finally moving.
12:57 asciilifeform aa neat
12:57 ben_vulpes settled in btc even?
12:58 jurov_moving Yep.
12:58 ben_vulpes what a time to be alive
12:58 ben_vulpes hey would you be so kind as to push 3.3 btc of foundation funds to mod6's deedbot account?
12:59 jurov_moving Yes, will try to get to my wallet asap. Please make signed request, btw.

13:11 lobbes http://btcbase.org/log/2018-02-14#1783926 <<  I'd say this one is more of a personal preference. I guess if you're going to start fresh now would be a good time, but personally I've never seen  "handle=realname" as so important as to warrant breaking wot continuity.
13:11 a111 Logged on 2018-02-14 17:37 TomServo: http://btcbase.org/log/2018-02-14#1783810 << Coincidentally, this is my real name, aha. Which is also on the list, getting new key under real name.
13:11 lobbes Can always just state realname in logs/blog and point to it when asked. (speaking of which, I realize I never have done this. So, for the logs, my real name is Eric Benevides)
13:15 TomServo lobbes: Continuity break? As I understood there was a (perhaps annoying to trinque) process for renewing keys.
13:15 ben_vulpes TomServo: you're talking about updating the nonsense "name" field on your kochrsa key?
13:16 TomServo ben_vulpes: I'm talking about changing my irc handle, such as yourself.
13:16 asciilifeform a number of folx changed handles, it doesn't break anything
13:18 TomServo Wouldn't a FG powered kochrsa be preferred over no FG?
13:19 ben_vulpes what do *you* prefer, TomServo
13:20 TomServo That would be my preference, but if you're telling me there is no benefit in it, I wouldn't bother.
13:21 lobbes For some reason I had the delusion that handle and key were inexorably linked in deedbot. I stand corrected
13:23 lobbes So I guess only "breakage" here would be in log only, which wouldn't be a breakage at all to those paying attention
13:25 ben_vulpes TomServo: not saying no benefit, would actually be a great thing to do and write up: "so you want to fuckgoats your gpg"
13:26 trinque there is no process for changing the key-nick relationship other than asking me pretty please
13:26 trinque and the volume of these does not merit automation, and there are significant downsides to automating it.
13:26 trinque wise folks will pick both a nick and key they can live with.
13:28 asciilifeform fwiw i never felt any urge to change nick. it is short enuff and if someone laughs at it it does me no harm. i sign my posts with human name fwiw.
13:30 TomServo I think a new key is neccessary in my case and figured if changing nicks, that'd be the time.
13:31 TomServo ben_vulpes: Surprised this has not been done. I'll add to the (geological!) list.
13:31 trinque ah, in which case can just register it
13:32 TomServo trinque: and forego any existing ratings?
13:34 trinque well, I open that up to the forum. they rated "TomServo" with key K1. TomServo comes along and demonstrates to me that he controls both K1 and K2, and wants to transfer ratings to K2 under $newNick.
13:35 TomServo Perhaps I misremember, didnt' asciilifeform renew a key and maintain ratings?
13:35 asciilifeform TomServo: i still have same modulus as when first tuned in
13:35 TomServo ah
13:35 asciilifeform no fewer than 3 times submitted 'updated' gpg pub with new date ( finally got tired of this, put in a null date )
13:35 trinque TomServo: I have so far made an exception for the fig-leaf expiration field, with the understanding that this exception goes away when P
13:36 trinque they're not of the same form though; this is "trinque is now trusted to do arbitrary swaps between keys and ratings"
13:36 trinque and I'm dim on wanting to make that a "feature"
13:37 TomServo Makes sense.
13:37 trinque undermines that you are *THAT MODULUS*
13:37 asciilifeform trinque: imho it would be reasonable for you to charge something, for the labour of modulus swap
13:37 trinque isn't the labor involved
13:37 trinque it's what the meaning of holding a particular key is.
13:38 TomServo exception goes away, meaning folks are generally expected to make a new key when P exists?
13:38 trinque oughta be able to import parameters neh?
13:38 trinque I pgpdump the db and extract them on my end, seamless transition
13:39 trinque TomServo: not saying people are expected to do any particular thing yet
13:39 asciilifeform i for one intend to retire the modulus i made on kochian prng.
13:39 trinque that's what "open that up to the forum" means
13:42 trinque TomServo: how will folks that rated you under one nick and key know that I (hypothetically) moved your ratings to another nick and key
13:43 trinque I think when you start enumerating those kinds of cases, there are many, and it's the sort of systemd hair we're familiar with.
13:43 BingoBoingo !~ticker --market all
13:43 trinque I am now damned to manage every exception
13:43 asciilifeform trinque: consider one possible cut of the knot : people to rate moduli, not nicks
13:44 asciilifeform ( i.e. the pov that nick is merely a convenient method of referring to a key . )
13:44 trinque I'm clearly leaning towards that they rate keys, yes
13:44 asciilifeform it seems to me to be The Right Thing
13:44 asciilifeform nick is clothes worn by a key.
13:44 trinque indeed. and moving them to another meaningless. your friends like you, they'll rate you again.
13:44 trinque if not, what was the point of the rating? a merit badge?
13:45 asciilifeform well the friends who still live.
13:45 trinque can keep the historic key too and tell the grandkids remember when
13:45 asciilifeform ( there was an old mp thread tho, about this, where he convincingly argued that only live people matter in re ratings )
13:47 trinque there's also the interesting question of what wot ratings look like in a gossipd world. yes, I will still warehouse my repository of wot data, but I'd also be happy to chatter ratings to other nodes.
13:48 trinque that can either be a simple protocol, or a complex one with key history and whatever other nonsense gets dreamed up.
13:48 trinque I think simple's right.
13:48 asciilifeform whatever else is done -- simple protocols are best.
13:49 asciilifeform ( but trick is, simple ~when seen as a whole~, rather than 'html-simple' where the building block is simply very dumb and to do anything even slightly complicated on it, requires herculean effort )
13:49 asciilifeform think back to the 'commonlisp vs scheme' wars.
13:49 trinque indeed, only so simple as completeness allows.
13:50 asciilifeform relatedly i burned much time on graphics-generators but in the end threw all out, ended up writing ch10's physical diagrams in ordinary htm
13:51 asciilifeform ( as painted 'table's)

14:46 jurov Or whatever addy ben_vulpes/mod6 send me signed, ofc.

14:48 mod6 Alright. I can do that a bit later.
14:48 ben_vulpes jurov will then send the exact quoted amount to that addr and bob's your aunt we should be fine
14:48 mod6 Probably will have to wait until tomorrow for Jurov to make the actual tx since it's probably getting late there for him.
14:48 ben_vulpes we can run it async, just paste him the deets encrypted
14:49 jurov I'm ready to do it now
