mp_en_viaje: and what sense does this make, the us is so way the fuck behind in biotech it could just as well be eritreea, but it nevertheless infected the heartland of chinese manufacture, notwithstanding that the chines aren'
t quite as backward nor is that place so easily accessible [as others would have been] just to get to some utterly obscure and very deeply isolated community of predictably self-selected geriatrics ?

http://logs.ossasepia.com/log/trilema/2020-03-05#1958950 - still worked, though that was on a musl gawk, perhaps it's special in a sufficiently different way. I don'
t have a drepper box around with that much disk atm. I'll believe it once blew up in some environment though.
diana_coman: and sure, one can still branch (effectively on the manifest file), but again, I don'
t see the situation where the leaves are not obvious even in a huge tree.
diana_coman:
http://logs.ossasepia.com/log/trilema/2020-03-06#1959017 - if you mean the branches from before the manifest was introduced in that specific tree, it's not that much "with a manifest" really; but in any case, regardless of how many leaves there are, they are still obvious enough in a tree text dump so that I don'
t think it's needed separately as such.
mp_en_viaje:
http://archive.is/7LwE5 << not that the other side is any better. imagine, all the "socially well adjusted" morons who can'
t add managed to re-do the same trite nonsense 50000 times, NOT ONE thinking to mention... i dunno, any of the self-obvious points, from "it depends on what is is" and onwards.
diana_coman: ahaha, that's the list of "we didn'
t push, they just jumped"?
ossabot: Logged on 2020-03-03 12:40:10 mp_en_viaje: jfw, well, i plan on maybe going to rio late may ; other than that i'll be mostly around. pick a day, i don'
t specifically care which and it doesn'
t make any sense for you to try and coordinate with large groups at large distances -- if indeed there's a gathering you can take the hourish trip down again, at the considerable cost to you of a lunch out or w/e it is.
mp_en_viaje: bvt, i think a large part of it is that indeed this tool is evoloving ; and has been, but deliberately under the specific sort of pressurte, which comes with usage. you're not under some great weight of "having to get it perfectly & forever right" now, just as mod6 or ben_vulpes or anytone else wasn'
t 3 years ago.
mp_en_viaje: so you don'
t like lexis texas... fine, take her out. you wanna put
eleni mitzali there instead ? fine, copy/paste it in, or instead. or change the order, or whatever the fuck. it's your fucking file. what the fuck.
ossabot: Logged on 2020-02-21 01:58:17 mircea_popescu: jfw, tell mom to come in sometime, i wouldn'

t you know awk can load its own file directly by itself ?"
jfw: perhaps there is in any language of interest, but won'
t be the same comment
jfw: mp_en_viaje: well a signature can'
t sign itself, yes? so there is some transformation from clearsigned file to hash input.
diana_coman: well, the pics I really wish I had would cover the '80s rather, so dunno; but anyway, since can'
t take them in past, might as well take them when there next, what else to do.
mp_en_viaje: "people shouldn'
t lie" "motherfucker, I WAS TELLING A STORY!!!" what, "nevertheless!!!" what is this, jeffersonian democracy ?
dorion: yeah, let them talk, watch them do and don'
t let what they say really affect what you do.
mp_en_viaje: if i do check it out, and in a week return, "bitch, i know five guys that've done you" she'll ask me "so ?" and if i go "you lied" she'll leave because "you're a fucking idiot". she has a point, doesn'
t she.
mp_en_viaje: right. one day i met a girl, we fucked, then she told me i am her third. this
happens ; what do i care ? i didn'
t refrain from anything until her claim checked out (nor did i bother checking), what difference does it possibly make.
dorion: I didn'
t mean it as how I treat them, but what my expectations are.
mp_en_viaje: doesn'
t even have to be as harsh as all that. literature is not history nor history literature ; no ought yet flew from any is, in other words... you recall bacon ?
dorion: mp_en_viaje discount what they say until they've executed on an offer ? act as if the check isn'
t going to cash until it does.
mp_en_viaje: the other's illustrated in glengarry glenn ross, "I want to show you something. It might mean nothing to you...and it might not. I don'
t know. I don'

http://logs.ossasepia.com/log/trilema/2020-03-01#1958708 Apologies, I had responded to this without having +v and didn'
t realize the message didn'
t go through. (thankfully jfw pointed out I had missed the msg) I'm in Playa Junquillal, a beach in Guanacaste (the nearest city is Santa Cruz) . It's pretty close to billymg's location. I am game for the 28th.
billymg: mp_en_viaje: i didn'
t mean to invite myself to anything though, if it was meant to be only for a smaller group i'm happy to wait until called upon
jfw: I admit I haven'
t seen.
mp_en_viaje: jfw, well, i plan on maybe going to rio late may ; other than that i'll be mostly around. pick a day, i don'

dorion apologizes that wasn'

ossabot: Logged on 2020-01-14 08:58:52 mircea_popescu: i will want a full release ready to go concomitantly, so if your client isn'
t liable to be around then maybe deed it prior.
mp_en_viaje: mod6, i didn'
t end up in costa rica by accident, you know ?
mp_en_viaje: trinque, the problem with your proposal is that the article isn'
t yet loaded at that point.
mp_en_viaje: i don'
t think you understand ; costa rica is austin in march/april 12 months a year.
billymg: trinque: i haven'
t looked closely enough at it yet to say but i will check out get_header and see if i can get it working that way. ty for the lead on that
trinque: mp_en_viaje: I might be able to travel in summer, don'
t mind the mugginess as long as there's beach.
BingoBoingo: mp_en_viaje: Thank you. I've been making progress fitting more of the tools in my hand and building with them. diana_coman is working me on how to plan, re-examining my relationship with time and how I budget it, and grounding myself in practicality. I've surrendered to diana_coman's mastery and the breaches in my head aren'
t completely closed yet, but I'm surrendered and working her program.
diana_coman: mp_en_viaje: thank you and no worries at all; I hope I didn'
t come across as not wanting to visit either, it's more the 12+ hours travel one way that gives me pause.
mp_en_viaje: diana_coman, i hope it doesn'
t come across as any kind of disinterest or noninviting. i very much would like to do more steaks, but i don'
t want to produce an obligation.
mp_en_viaje: then if people don'
t use the proper linking thing and the dysfunctional js one becomes too entrenched we'll be stuck with it forever and so on and so forth.
mp_en_viaje: i practically have the choice of either publishing a screamingly offensive non-patch in november of 2019, or else wait until there's a place to meaningfully add it as a patch ; which necessarily is stalled on "what the fuck is the correct cut for themes, cuz it seems evident it isn'
t what's now done", which in turn rests on a half dozen or so more nodes that are all further away from what is actually being worked now.
trinque: I don'
t have w/e patch improves the quoting mechanism apparently
trinque: if there isn'
t currently an answer, I'll host the patches.
mp_en_viaje: i don'
t recall where's included that picture with the 12yo boy looking angry from under an abundance of spurious shaving cream, but anyways.
mp_en_viaje: "Filozofii Regi si Parlamentul Perfect - Also Sprach Zamolxis" how do you like them apples! gnat can'
t survive a decade, mouthfulla big ticket items, philosophers, kings, why the hell not.
diana_coman can'
t find ofc the article on own blog though I think I did write it.
mp_en_viaje: the costa ricans wanted to know whether i visited china, iran or korea in the interval. i wanted to know how they arrived at the list. they wanted to know if i don'
t watch the news or what's my problem.
diana_coman: re flu it's all right, I'm sure there's plenty of advice and "we'll take care of it" everywhere, except I never quite bother to look and it didn'
t seem to make any difference
diana_coman: mp_en_viaje: the lanky blonde whores don'
t seem to be native to cr, lol
mp_en_viaje: can'
t even put into words the "how come", it's just simply that everyone in costa rica is stupid naturally and only to the extension it can'

billymg: from your travelog articles it seems like europe is not much different from usia in terms of cultural decay, i.e. the sysco food, the hipsters and their oh-so-cool detachment, the clerks with their "i'm sorry, we can'
t do that, it's the 'policy'"
ossabot: Logged on 2020-02-28 01:24:04 mp_en_viaje: talking about later tell, it seems the only practical usage actually is to annoy people : either they do read the log, in which case it's spurious, or else they don'
t read the log, in which case it doesn'

mp_en_viaje: i can'
t be arsed to drag out where in the log this point was made for ignoramus asciilifeform 's benefit, HEY, JUSTIFY PRICES LIKE CIVILISED PEOPLE,
mp_en_viaje: ully detached from it -- so if the person doesn'
t read that day's log, they miss out on that day's log, necessarily including the point in question.
mp_en_viaje: i guess as a concept it harkens back from an olden time, when people were comparatively more superficially equipped and more superficially involved ; today the proper avenue for making a timeline-breaching note on some topic is a comment the person's blog (and if they don'
t have one that'd cotextually-support the concern then "person" who ?) ; whereas non-timeline-breaching points obviously belong in their day's log context, as they can'

mp_en_viaje: so i dunno, maybe we don'

mp_en_viaje: i also tried out a subsidiary "send notes to self on main nick" putative utility a while back, didn'

mp_en_viaje: yes, indeed. asciilifeform has a whole lot of those. can sure take more -- the overwhelming abundance to date hasn'
t bothered anything, so definitely could double, triple, infinite-etc.
mod6: Anyway, I haven'
t even eaten today. So I'm gonna head out.
mp_en_viaje: or what exactly is the idea, erryone's gonna be so fucking impressed with the whole "oh, you know what, ye olde bitcoin has, among its many race conditions, one where you can dos it by getblock spam" that we'll just move right back on to 2015 ? it ain'
t ever gonna be 2015 again, make a blog, find a master, do some work AS THEY DIRECT YOU, and so on.
mod6: When alf alerted about this wedge on the 22nd, I was quick to point out this wave of stuff that I don'

mp_en_viaje: bvt, don'

mircea_popescu: the notion of trees as an approach to human knowledge is such alien mp-arcana not because mp came up with anything, but because everyone else failed 6th grade, can'

mircea_popescu: oddly i can'

mircea_popescu: it's quite obvious, incidentally, perusing the collection of liberated rats, that the walls are rather in their way. if there weren'

deedbot: hanbot updated rating of asciilifeform from 3 to -1 << For all his pretensions to personhood, this guy actually needed me to save him from a hotel bill he couldn'

diana_coman: well, they are certainly stuck to "resolve" through pretense of one sort or another; whether that is the easiest pretense or not doesn'
t even matter all that much, it's more like a forced move really, what *else* are they going to do since they rule out entirely addressing the root cause?
mircea_popescu: for some reason these couldn'
