mircea_popescu: between 2 and 4 the difference simply is "2 was a linux kernel, 4 is treasonable atrocity built atop 3, which is how you say '''mike hearn''' in linux"

mircea_popescu: (among teh great advantages of ye log import : sql search for "power" "rangers" now yields 94 rows in set, all of the Forum logs for X format. yippee! i kinda do vaguely regret however not bothering to immortalize the original gushing fan on tardstalk, "oh, you guys are like power rangers!!!" in excited response to the perceived great acumen displayed by hearn fucking up bitcoin while everyone else was watching manga)

mircea_popescu: hearn-something

mircea_popescu: anyway, satoshi did weigh in on the first "fork". back in 2015. http://trilema.com/2015/the-news-in-brief-hearn-is-a-shitstain-mp-is-right-fuck-reddit-love-satoshi/ has the details.

mircea_popescu: btw, BingoBoingo do you happen to have anywhere saved the original reddit "you guys are power rangers!!!" idiocy ? iirc was during hearn's wrecking fork.

mircea_popescu: kinda informs the change of the tenor here, since his http://trilema.com/2015/the-news-in-brief-hearn-is-a-shitstain-mp-is-right-fuck-reddit-love-satoshi/ declaration a few years ago.

mircea_popescu: asciilifeform pacepa ~= mike hearn.

mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2017-09-10#1711757 << you don't understand : the deprecated lib is part of th ewallet, because the mike hearn / power ranger imbeciles "updated" the db scheme of prb in order to INCLUDE a new db dependency, and one made by google, but DID NOT remove the old one. ☝︎☟︎

mircea_popescu: and the list keeps going and going. gavin or mike hearn were (their moral turpitude aside), ~technically~ qualified to participate back in 2012.

mircea_popescu: if memory serves hearn was also merit washed as "something or the other" engineer at google.

mircea_popescu: for as long as one entertains even faint delusions that who knows, packard is maybe a person too, that "coreboot" retarded, what's her name, is maybe human like we are, that gavin or hearn have mothers and fathers and children and smell roses rather than you know, dwelling in rats nests like the rats they are and come out of ootheca like any other kitchen cockroach - for as long as that delusion is even vaguely present it's n

mircea_popescu: http://log.mkj.lt/trilema/20160919/#534 << not since we drove stake through hearn-gavin shambler heart. but "in the future" of retardation, i'm sure there will be.

mircea_popescu: there's ~no value in considering the individual "people" as people. take mike hearn. he's not as much "mike hearn" as he is "lemme break this while right solution" + x + y.

mircea_popescu: well, at first there was http://trilema.com/2015/the-news-in-brief-hearn-is-a-shitstain-mp-is-right-fuck-reddit-love-satoshi/

mircea_popescu: ironically i fucking warned the idiots when they fired the hearn toothpick. but, too dumb to figure it out.

mircea_popescu: what exactly is the logic of keeping a blog to feed dead tree book publishing business when a) the publishing business is really trying to sell pdfs for 5 paypalbux and b) the blog is read by fewer people than ever heard of mike hearn ?!

mircea_popescu: http://qntra.net/2016/03/hearn-cant-quit-maxwell-declares-maxwell-bitcoins-leader/#comment-49899

mircea_popescu: note that hearn and gavin were "there" since year 2.

mircea_popescu: i dunno that the question was ever settled, or seriously considered. but it'd be expected prb begins with the famous "you are like power rtangers" nonsense, during the original hearn-induced fork.

mircea_popescu: hearn is more of an outsider than most outsiders.

mircea_popescu: anyway, what's the true truth of truthiness BingoBoingo, is hearn quitted or did he quit like stolfi ?

mircea_popescu: i was half hoping hearn would get together with the bitcoin wife and that impossibly named, horsefaced washington staffer chick and create a hot love triangle of "How I created Bitcoin successfully, a guide" "Level your DB" etc.

mircea_popescu: maybe it was all because of hearn!!1

mircea_popescu: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=15-01-2016#1370649 << you are very much correct, upon meditation. mike hearn is pretty much the amir taaki of 2014-2015. ☝︎

mircea_popescu: reading mike hearn is like reading timecube without the humor, writing skill, grounding in reality, variety and aesthetic appreciation.

mircea_popescu: " Mr. Hearn, until recently one of the most prominent leaders of the Bitcoin project, became so disillusioned that in December he sold the few hundred Bitcoins he had left and quietly took a job at a new start-up."

mircea_popescu: "Two years ago, Mr. Hearn quit a cushy programming job at Google’s Swiss headquarters" << dude gtfo, cushy gofer job.

mircea_popescu: https://archive.is/bHGp3 << o look at that, the new-xt bs no longer has hearn ?

mircea_popescu: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=16-12-2015#1344822 <<< apparently the death of wuille coming so soon after the public rape of gavin and hearn really stung the monkey brain. ☝︎

mircea_popescu: pre hearn&fail-bip, the standard was pretty high. by now it's a lot easier to argue "hey, at least it's not as bad as THAT dumb shit"

mircea_popescu: i suspect the google hiring of turds a la hearn and a whole raft of others to be specifically intetional.
