- Daniel Biddle Appreciation Day? I thought that was yesterday?
- 01:02:10 [tav]
- ampheta?
- 01:02:20 [AaronSw]
- amphetadesk, tav
- 01:02:42 [sbp]
- ta da: http://purl.org/net/esl
- 01:02:43 [AaronSw]
- http://sourceforge.net/projects/amphetadesk
- 01:04:23 [sbp]
- "esl:" is the scheme that I have been working on
- 01:04:34 [sbp]
- as well as all of the others... ahem
- 01:04:56 [sbp]
- What's more, I've submitted it as an Internet Draft
- 01:05:03 [AaronSw]
- cool!
- 01:05:50 [sbp]
- I thought I'd bypass the usual "release to uri@w3.org and get some comments about how people don't think it's a good idea" step
- 01:06:06 [sbp]
- :-)
- 01:06:11 [AaronSw]
- heh
- 01:06:27 [tav]
- what's so good about ampheta?
- 01:06:40 [tav]
- it can be created in like an hour
- 01:07:00 [AaronSw]
- You've used it?
- 01:07:18 [AaronSw]
- Who said there was anything good about it?
- 01:07:21 [tav]
- no, just read http://www.disobey.com/amphetadesk/
- 01:07:23 [AaronSw]
- It's just Morbus' project.
- 01:07:49 [AaronSw]
- Apparently it takes more than an hour if you use Perl and not Python. ;-) ;-)
- 01:08:17 [sbp]
- He he he
- 01:08:35 [sbp]
- Are you implying that Perl sucks?
- 01:08:51 [tav]
- for making apps, yes ;p
- 01:09:06 [tav]
- it's great otherwise
- 01:09:21 [sbp]
- * sbp wonders about a Python vs. Befunge-93 rant
- 01:09:41 [deltab]
- rant?
- 01:09:47 [AaronSw]
- What is there to rant about?
- 01:09:56 [sbp]
- I don't come up with essays or missives, I come up with rants
- 01:10:23 [sbp]
- * sbp wonders if he should standardize his rant format
- 01:10:47 [sbp]
- rant about: both are intuitive and easy to pick up
- 01:10:53 [sbp]
- except for Befunge-93
- 01:11:18 [sbp]
- [actually, that *was* very easy to pick up, just odd to code with]
- 01:12:06 [sbp]
- you get funny programing problems like, "if I turn this subroutine that way, will I have enough space, or will I have to bridge over that other subroutine?"
- 01:12:40 [sbp]
- more often than not, you think you have enough space, and find out you don't, or that you do if you turn another bit of code another way, which effects another bit of code...
- 01:13:24 [sbp]
- s/effects/affects
- 01:14:02 [AaronSw]
- that's so weird...

- 01:48:00 [AaronSw]
- Oh, yes, that's why he's a bad writer. I remember now. He has a book with his name on it.
- 01:48:02 [tav]
- * tav slaps himself
- 01:48:17 [AaronSw]
- Don't worry, it's just one of those fake Wrox things.
- 01:48:39 [AaronSw]
- * AaronSw has an autographed copy of "Wrox: VoiceXML" that says "To Aaron: Who knew about VoiceXML a whole year before I did."
- 01:48:48 [tav]
- lol
- 01:48:56 [AaronSw]
- But yet she still got the book deal! Sheesh.
- 01:48:58 [sbp]
- Actually, it is funny; there are so many run on sentences in there, which is weird because I nenver type run on sentences, and would probably go so far as to say that run on sentences are absolutely terrible and should be avioded at all costs

- 02:02:10 [tav]
- AaronSw: care to introduce me?
- 02:02:20 [Morbus]
- iv'e heard the supreme ruler bit ;)
- 02:02:35 [sbp]
- * sbp is still wondering who tav is too
- 02:02:39 [AaronSw]
- tav, Morbus is a Perl hacker who works on RSS and Amphetadesk and screws up machines at an ISP.
- 02:02:53 [Morbus]
- and don't forget disobey.com ;)
- 02:02:55 [AaronSw]
- Morbus, sbp, tav is head of ESP, makers of hundreds of esp* domain names
- 02:03:19 [AaronSw]
- as well as Espra, xena, and other fine Zope products and things that start with x.
- 02:03:29 [tav]
- .whois espterrorism.com
- 02:03:29 [xena]
- espterrorism.com - ImportError: No module named select
- 02:03:51 [Morbus]
- and he wrote some bookie thingy? or she?
- 02:04:03 [AaronSw]
- bookie?
- 02:04:16 [Morbus]
- book. you know, baby talk for ignorance.
- 02:04:25 [tav]
- we are the guys behind gift economy, a society with direct democracy, basic socio-economic rights
- 02:04:44 [sbp]
- oh, so that was you!
- 02:04:44 [Morbus]
- that sounds familiar. ever heard of the lottery of babylon?
- 02:05:01 [AaronSw]
- direct democracy fascilitated by the Internet?
- 02:05:12 [tav]
- also intend to bring about reputation servers, trust metrics, etc
- 02:05:26 [AaronSw]
- wow, and you're getting funding from where?
- 02:05:45 [AaronSw]
- * AaronSw adds espra to his list of cool places to work
- 02:06:14 [tav]
- well, we managed to get private investors to support us ;p but unfortunately, we are left to look elsewhere lately
- 02:06:27 [deltab]
- * deltab notes AaronSw's addition, and plans something
- 02:06:34 [tav]
- and, the gift market model is the answer, i'm convinced!
- 02:06:37 [AaronSw]
- ooh... what, i wonder...
- 02:07:11 [AaronSw]
- hmm, so you'll have all your programmers working for you for free as a plege to the gift economy... interesting!
- 02:07:26 [tav]
- deltab: we stopped the mass orgy ritual after your initiation you know...
- 02:07:30 [tav]
- ;p
- 02:07:30 [AaronSw]
- See also the lack of content at http://cge.espra.net/
- 02:07:37 [AaronSw]
- orgy: aww, shoot!
- 02:07:45 [tav]
- see also the lack of content on everything esp does ;p
- 02:07:50 [Morbus]
- i'm satanist! do i get some lovin'?
- 02:08:26 [sbp]
- I wonder why Satanists go to hell? Isn't that the first place they'd want to go?
- 02:08:47 [Morbus]
- no, satanists don't believe in heaven, hell, god or satan. or at least the Church of Satan doesn;t
- 02:09:08 [sbp]
- so why isn't it called the Church of Nothing?
- 02:09:29 [sbp]
- or just "Nothing"? That'd be better
- 02:09:30 [Morbus]
- becuase we could care less if you want to make asssumptions without researching. that just adds you to our idito list :)
- 02:09:48 [sbp]
- Pfffff, without researching my ass!
- 02:09:58 [Morbus]
- i'm not affiliated with the CoS though. most satanists just follow some "rules" and then branch out themselves'
- 02:10:08 [deltab]
- sbp: yes, very much without that
- 02:10:22 [AaronSw]
- lol
- 02:10:24 [sbp]
- He he he
- 02:10:33 [tav]
- heh
- 02:10:42 [sbp]
- * sbp was going to add a comma, but gave in
- 02:10:48 [tav]
- so, for the fourth channel in two days
- 02:10:49 [Morbus]
- hehehe
- 02:10:54 [tav]
- lemme pitch the gift market to you folks
- 02:11:00 [Morbus]
- alright
- 02:11:05 [AaronSw]
- I'm sold! Where do I sign?
- 02:11:11 [sbp]
- * sbp puts his "no, really, I am interested" face on
- 02:11:27 [tav]
- first off, what does gift economy say to you?
- 02:11:28 [Morbus]
- * Morbus leans meditatively and intently forward.
- 02:11:39 [Morbus]
- it reminds me of those sites that give gifts for people for no reason
- 02:11:44 [Morbus]
- kinda like a two way camgirl thing
- 02:12:06 [sbp]
- two way camgirl? sounds fun
- 02:12:11 [AaronSw]
- It reminds me of monks with wrapped boxes and bows.
- 02:12:13 [Morbus]
- heh. have you heard of that, sbp?
- 02:12:38 [AaronSw]
- It also reminds me of agorics, and potlach, etc.
- 02:12:58 [Morbus]
- quickly: chick with cam puts up wishlist. desparate men "pay" her off with gifts to do favors on cam.
- 02:12:59 [sbp]
- I haven't, but I'm interested
- 02:13:05 [tav]
- jej
- 02:13:07 [tav]
- heh
- 02:13:11 [Morbus]
- its been on salon and somewhere else recently.
- 02:13:16 [AaronSw]
- jej?
- 02:13:29 [Morbus]
- heh+1
- 02:13:29 [tav]
- it 3 am
- 02:13:33 [sbp]
- h>j
- 02:13:36 [tav]
- i'm allowed to make typing mistakes
- 02:13:44 [sbp]
- No, it's quarter past 3
- 02:13:50 [Morbus]
- actually, its 10:15
- 02:13:58 [AaronSw]
- 9:15!
- 02:14:01 [sbp]
- 3:15AM, I tell you!
- 02:14:11 [Morbus]
- ok. get out our swatch synchonizers
- 02:14:15 [AaronSw]
- Anyway....
- 02:14:24 [Morbus]
- this is that cam girl thing: http://www.salon.com/tech/feature/2001/08/13/cam_girls/index.html
- 02:14:29 [sbp]
- There's another Iridum Flare tonight sometime... a really bright one
- 02:15:32 [tav]
- those satellites coulda been something
- 02:15:39 [AaronSw]
- I thought those satellites dropped into the atmosphere.
- 02:15:52 [sbp]
- Wow, kick-ass
- 02:15:55 [sbp]
- perhaps literally
- 02:16:08 [AaronSw]
- You know Motorola headquarters is right around here.
- 02:16:32 [AaronSw]
- I went to the Motorola Museum for my birthday once.
- 02:18:00 [AaronSw]
- anyway, tav was telling us about the gift economy
- 02:18:08 [sbp]
- Anyway, Gift Econ... yes
- 02:18:22 [tav]
- hmz
- 02:18:35 [tav]
- so, in all seriousness, what does it say to you? ;p
- 02:18:56 [AaronSw]
- It's people donating things to each other for the improvement of society.
- 02:19:15 [Morbus]
- ok. kinda like those book trade things i've been seeing recently
- 02:20:11 [tav]
- well, one aspect of the gift economy is the system of exchanging commodities under the principles of voluntary payment and unrestricted distribution
- 02:20:59 [tav]
- distribution mechanisms such as freenet, bring down the cost of distribution to negligible levels
- 02:23:04 [tav]
- ehm
- 02:23:10 [tav]
- people still there?
- 02:23:24 [sbp]
- I think so
- 02:23:24 [Morbus]
- yuppers
- 02:23:46 [sbp]
- aren't "yuppers" people who carry mobile phones and bark?
- 02:23:52 [Morbus]
- bwahahaha.
- 02:24:01 [tav]
- right, so, with distribution costs so low, the question is one of renumerating the content creators
- 02:24:01 [sbp]
- :-)
- 02:24:27 [AaronSw]
- renumerating? i.e. paying back?
- 02:24:33 [sbp]
- why does Freenet bring the cost of distribution any lower than the rest of the WWW?
- 02:24:54 [AaronSw]
- Because with the Web you need to host a server.
- 02:24:58 [AaronSw]
- With Freenet you only need a client.
- 02:25:19 [tav]
- AaronSw: yes
- 02:25:44 [tav]
- ehm
- 02:25:47 [tav]
- remunerating even
- 02:26:00 [AaronSw]
- remunerating?
- 02:26:03 [tav]
- to compensate the content creator for the effort they have put in
- 02:26:19 [xena]
- xena has quit
- 02:26:37 [AaronSw]
- bye bye, xena
- 02:26:47 [AaronSw]
- ok
- 02:27:01 [xena]
- xena has joined #swhack
- 02:27:07 [tav]
- .webster remunerate
- 02:27:08 [xena]
- Remunerate defined as:
- 02:27:09 [xena]
- (-?t), v. t. [imp. & p. p.
- 02:27:10 [xena]
- - {Remunerated} (-?"t?d); p. pr. & vb. n. {Remunerating}.] [L. remuneratus, p. p. of remunerare, remunerari; pref. re- re- + munerare, munerari, to give, present, from munus, muneris, a gift, present. Cf. {Munificent}.] To pay an equivalent to for any service, loss, expense, or other sacrifice; to recompense; to requite; as, to remunerate men for labor.
- 02:27:13 [xena]
- - Syn: To reward; recompense; compensate; satisfy; requite; repay; pay; reimburse.
- 02:27:24 [tav]
- there ;p
- 02:27:41 [AaronSw]
- fine
- 02:27:43 [tav]
- sbp: w/ freenet, there is no cost of hosting a server as AaronSw pointed out
- 02:27:51 [tav]
- the cost is distributed evenly amongst all the users
- 02:28:03 [AaronSw]
- Which is how the Web was supposed to be...
- 02:28:59 [AaronSw]
- but caching fizzled out.
- 02:29:02 [tav]
- yup
- 02:29:08 [AaronSw]
- http://www.w3.org/Propagation/
- 02:29:13 [tav]
- read it
- 02:29:40 [tav]
- so, let's say AaronSw puts up his shower music
- 02:29:50 [AaronSw]
- Aww, thanks tav.
- 02:29:57 [tav]
- i love it, and give him $$$
- 02:30:12 [tav]
- that's the simplest form of transaction within the gift economy
- 02:30:12 [AaronSw]
- Aww, thanks tav.
- 02:30:17 [sbp]
- and the persistence of the resource is given by how often it is accessed?
- 02:30:34 [tav]
- sbp: in freenet?
- 02:30:45 [sbp]
- yep
- 02:30:58 [tav]
- yes, less accessed resources tend to drop out, but we intend to fix that
- 02:30:58 [Morbus]
- Morbus has quit
- 02:31:50 [tav]
- now, enter gift market
- 02:32:02 [sbp]
- fix: great!
- 02:32:03 [tav]
- this takes the simple transaction and makes it slightly more complex
- 02:32:42 [tav]
- we perceive AaronSw's collection of shower music as a product
- 02:33:12 [tav]
- and, he puts it up on the gift market and specifies two things..
- 02:33:31 [tav]
- - for how long people can "buy into" his product
- 02:33:39 [tav]
- - how much of his product people can buy into
- 02:33:53 [sbp]
- definition of "buy into"?
- 02:34:05 [AaronSw]
- gift market stocks?
- 02:34:06 [tav]
- e.g. he says people can buy into 20% of his product until the next three months, after which the opportunity closes
- 02:34:28 [tav]
- sbp: into future potential revenue through gift economy transactions
- 02:34:42 [sbp]
- cool
- 02:34:51 [tav]
- e.g. after the three months, someone comes along and gives AaronSw $50
- 02:34:57 [AaronSw]
- Money from future transactions?
- 02:35:07 [tav]
- yes
- 02:35:40 [tav]
- of that $50, $10 (20%) gets split between those who bought into his product
- 02:36:00 [AaronSw]
- What about non-cash dontations?
- 02:36:08 [AaronSw]
- Like free server hosting? ;-)
- 02:36:38 [tav]
- well, that adds a level of complication that isn't being tackled by the implementation yet
- 02:36:40 [tav]
- but will do
- 02:36:55 [AaronSw]
- So you're actually implementing this market?
- 02:36:57 [tav]
- i want the whole commerce layer to be a complex bartering system of sorts
- 02:37:12 [tav]
- but, that's more of a medium term goal
- 02:37:24 [tav]
- yes, the gift market is something we want to make reality now
- 02:37:41 [AaronSw]
- Thru a computer implementation? (Espra?)
- 02:37:42 [AaronSw]
- I thought all you guys did was make IRC bots and beautifult but vapid websites. ;-)
- 02:37:51 [tav]
- heh
- 02:39:26 [tav]
- we do all that too
- 02:39:37 [tav]
- whoa major lag
- 02:39:37 [sbp]
- * sbp installs JRE
- 02:39:39 [AaronSw]
- wow
- 02:40:04 [sbp]
- * sbp installs Freenet
- 02:40:15 [tav]
- sbp: which one?
- 02:40:22 [sbp]
- Freenet_setup0.3.9.2.exe

- 02:40:26 [tav]
- urgh
- 02:40:38 [tav]
- your network won't work quite so well
- 02:40:51 [tav]
- use espSetup
- 02:40:52 [sbp]
- from SourceForge... what one do you recommend?
- 02:40:57 [sbp]
- URI?

- 02:41:34 [tav]
- so... sbp / AaronSw: comments on the model?
- 02:42:07 [AaronSw]
- Of the gift economy? well, it's pretty much what I expected... rather simple right now
- 02:42:21 [AaronSw]
- What does jim (the potlach guy) think?
- 02:42:27 [sbp]
- What are your next practical steps for implementing it going to be?
- 02:43:25 [tav]
- well, i can expand on the complex models if you wish
- 02:43:44 [tav]
- creating digital cash, etc
- 02:43:54 [tav]
- but, they are medium term goals
- 02:43:57 [sbp]
- ooh, digital cash, go!
- 02:44:13 [tav]
- jim likes what we do
- 02:44:52 [AaronSw]
- I mean the idea is all great, I've always felt that. I just want to see it happen!

- s/sex/discussions
- 02:46:29 [AaronSw]
- sex? Really?
- 02:46:47 [tav]
- no ;p
- 02:46:56 [tav]
- megan would kill me
- 02:47:05 [tav]
- well, probably jim first
- 02:47:33 [AaronSw]
- megan your gf? so? wife?
- 02:47:41 [tav]
- re: comment, i want to hear of what you see as flaws in the model
- 02:47:53 [tav]
- jim's wife
- 02:48:02 [AaronSw]
- i see
- 02:48:12 [AaronSw]
- Freudian slip?
- 02:48:35 [tav]
- my humour... ;p
- 02:48:49 [tav]
- * tav sighs and gives up
- 02:49:10 [AaronSw]
- Why would I see flaws in such a model? it's rather plain and simple.
- 02:49:21 [AaronSw]
- It's an implementation I could nitpick
- 02:49:39 [sbp]
- Freenet is totally smegged for some reason...
- 02:50:06 [AaronSw]
- Works for me.
- 02:50:15 [tav]
- sbp: what's the problem?
- 02:50:42 [tav]
- AaronSw: good ;p
- 02:50:57 [AaronSw]
- have you gotten flak from other people?
- 02:51:49 [sbp]
- it says it can't find javaw
- 02:52:54 [sbp]
- Aha, I fixed it manually
- 02:53:32 [tav]
- sbp: run minifindjava.exe

- 02:53:49 [tav]
- ehm
- 02:53:56 [tav]
- pigdog is still accessible?
- 02:54:09 [tav]
- didn't even realise it was being updated
- 02:54:10 [sbp]

- 02:54:51 [sbp]
- It's churning...
- 02:54:56 [AaronSw]
- on what parts, tav?
- 02:55:45 [sbp]
- no, it's not getting it
- 02:56:12 [sbp]
- wow, it's using port 19114... that's not normal, is it? What's the default?
- 02:56:22 [AaronSw]
- I think that's it
- 02:56:39 [tav]
- major objections were on the gift economy itself... why would anyone cough up instead of freeloading
- 02:56:43 [tav]
- sbp: that's the default
- 02:56:54 [sbp]
- Heh, interesting: This page will load content from the world wide web. This could be an error on the part of the page creator - or it could be used to compromise your anonymity.

- 03:10:40 [tav]
- MSKs aren't realy
- 03:10:41 [tav]
- MSKs aren't real
- 03:10:48 [tav]
- just a figment of your imagination ;p
- 03:11:05 [tav]
- it's date based redirect powered SSKs basically
- 03:12:55 [sbp]
- is there any documentation for them? I can't seem to find anythin that explains it clearly
- 03:13:41 [AaronSw]
- How does freenet protect against me stealing someone's future update?
- 03:16:58 [tav]
- SSK@public_key/object

- 17:33:07 [AaronSw]
- <AccordionGuy> I wonder what they're going to do with upcoming movies that prominently feature the WTC. Namely, the Spider-Man movie (where he webs a bank robber's helicopter between the towers)
- 17:35:40 [lilo]
- [GlobalNotice] Just a note. Pasting information on flights, need for blood donors and similar things on wallops. To listen, /mode <yournick> +w
- 17:35:58 [sbp]
- Yes, and there's an episode of The Simpsons with the WTC towers... they won't be showing that for a while
- 17:37:44 [AaronSw]
- How're things with you?
- 17:38:27 [AaronSw]
- Wow... "We have suspended our service out of sympathy to the victims and families of this National tragedy. Our heartfelt thoughts and prayers go out to them." - X10.com

- They didn't collapse for a while, so hopefully, most of the people got out

- 17:51:35 [AaronSw]
- Yeah, no nuclear weapons yet.
