schwartz wrote about the roofs, iirc it was. semiconductor firms replaced cathedral roofs all over europe, for 0 cost. just to get the valuable pre-hiroshima metal.

schwartz to blow rather than inhale when organometallic fireball's going on.
a111: Logged on 2019-03-14 14:32 asciilifeform: ( i dunno if al
schwartz drank, but may as well )
mircea_popescu: and no, there's nothing wrong with saying "universally, except for the morons". car tanks are universally filled with gasoline (except for the morons -- such as those who try straight toluene, or those al
schwartz speaks of, or etcetera -- there's no "consensus" escape from reality, and so in plenty of cases there's no difference between divergence and idiocy)
mircea_popescu: al
schwartz's "believe it or not ketamine dun work" has a lot to do with "well... you've been to the dentist all these many years ?"

mircea_popescu: and i've quite enjoyed reading al
schwartz. in peristaltic news, wikipedia thinks there's a dozen al schwartzes out there, NONE of which this one, and none of which worth any kind of mention.
mircea_popescu: (
schwartz above is laurent
schwartz, provided an elegant translation of the non-functional nature of dirac's delta by using distribution limits to model it)
mircea_popescu: sooo are we sticking to pre
schwartz notions of "physicists are talking nonsense" ?
mircea_popescu: al
schwartz is such a treasure of specific information.
mircea_popescu: tons of retardedness with morgan freeman, aaron
schwartz, what have you.
mircea_popescu: same reason al
schwartz doesn't make his way here ; and same exact reason i dunno, lew rockwell can't pass my idiot filter.
mircea_popescu: this being a large part of why i'm not impressed with, eg,
schwartz ; or naggum ; etc.
mircea_popescu: i am not even discussing the
schwartz fellow at all, i dun really know him.
mircea_popescu: what,
schwartz got named in schroedinger's testament or what is it.
a111: Logged on 2014-07-27 19:05 asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: in 2010 i concocted a variant of the test that could be carried out for approx. 50k USD, from scratch.
schwartz answered that, in his estimation, the test would work to spec, but results would not be accepted by the field unless carried out on one of the two existing eotvos balances. one - adelberger's, one - chicom.
mircea_popescu: well, principally
schwartz has power to prevent
schwartz. usually through variations of imgur thing.

☟︎ mircea_popescu: basically in that space you'd just cauchy-buniakowski-
schwartz the fuck out of everything
ascii_field: 'can't have police state without police !' (tm) (r) (al
schwartz)
mircea_popescu: at the very margin, this discussion reduces to the discussion of al
schwartz' lack of access to measuring processes, if you recall it.
gernika: mircea_popescu no he seemed to make eye-contact, connect, etc. Aaron
Schwartz, who I met at a similar such party (possibly even the same one) struck me as being much more of an autist.

schwartz. you get invited, and then some rotter throws shit in your face
