mircea_popescu: whatever the fuck i write on it, it's still gonna pay.
mircea_popescu: it\s a joke, this "enforcing" mechanism. consists of nothing more than me presenting a signed check to a company i own
shinohai: I didn't figure out an angle for it, therefore left it to simmer on back burner.
shinohai: ^ I almost Qntra'd that today ben_vulpes
mircea_popescu: see, if ~I~ were running the socialist state, there'd be a tax penalty and a 6 mo administrative (ie, no judge involved) jail sentence for keeping property empty a full quarter.
asciilifeform: who ever heard of a vermin thinking 'i'ma only make 8 bux but do 10,000 worth of damage, i'd better not' ?
shinohai: So airbnb acquired Changetip. I guess now when people lose 67 cents sleeping on your sofa you can convert it to satoshi right there.
ben_vulpes: portland is about as squatter unfriendly as i've ever seen a city.
asciilifeform: ^ not far from where i live
phf: i haven't but i'll add it at some point soon. didn't have a bandwidth to hack on anything non-trivial
asciilifeform: phf: the one where the logs url should behave sanely, i.e. not redirect to anything but to ~always~ point to the head of the log
asciilifeform: it reminds me of a dream i had once, where i was in charge of some kindergarten thing, and a ragged bum knocks on the door, outside - storms, rains, - 'quick, quick, i need to fry in your electric chair!' he gasps. i reply 'sorry, we only have a child-sized one here!' but he persists, squeezes himself in
a111: Logged on 2016-04-12 05:55 ben_vulpes: more like "we don't make much over here, and you don't ride bikes, so i don't think this cult is for you"
mircea_popescu: punkman i'm not advanced enough to mix my own ; generally just get premixed whatever greater minds think fit and proper.
punkman: I don't really like the sweet neem thing, definitely don't use it in currys
asciilifeform: 'Then they came to Namecheap where I have a couple of VPS servers, this account also had 2factor SMS authentication required for login. However the hacker opened up a live chat with Namecheap and requested a password reset for the SolusVM VPS panel, at which point, in a massive breach of their security protocols, they sent a plain text email to the comprised address containing both the VPS panel use
mircea_popescu: in other news, i planted something that was supposed to be "curry", which i had nfi is even a plant wtf, isn't that a spice mix ?
asciilifeform: phf: i can actually get behind 'thing needs its ~own~ scheduler, ip stack, nic driver...'
phf: but none is the answer to why cmucl, and i don't think there's one. mostly why not? it's a question of discipline for me, can i move slow and not freak out against deficiencies. i think that "looking for silver bullet" is just a waste of time, and there's no way that i can possibly explore entire cmucl solution space, until a whole new set of base capabilities is required
mircea_popescu: i thought lisp exiosts so you don't "Get a hang somewhere"
mircea_popescu: ah ok, i didn't get what you were saying.
asciilifeform: all i want is for the jit compiler's back-end to be sanely written and not married to x86, and for there to not be weird endian dependencies baked in.
phf: asciilifeform: i don't think lisps support cross-compilation in general?
mircea_popescu: suppose i don't.
mircea_popescu: this is why i'm even using arm or w/e in the first place.
asciilifeform: i still don't get it
mircea_popescu: mk let's rephrase. if i used a non-x86 box i'd want the thing to be native for that box not an addon to x86.
asciilifeform: i do not rightfully apprehend mircea_popescu's observation here ☟︎
mircea_popescu: im unconvinced multibox support is a good idea. if i am going to run on non-x86, i sure as fuck don't wantall the x86 stuff in there.
phf: i think since 2009 or so
asciilifeform: didn't, last i saw
phf: well, that's the only one that you keep mentioning, and i heard you about it :)
asciilifeform: i consider a general-purpose language without these, WORTHLESS
a111: Logged on 2016-04-12 14:46 phf: by day to day i mean non-lisp stuff, but yeah, even taking that thing live revealed a lot of annoyances in cmucl (asciilifeform will say told you so)
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: interesting idea, i'd be of more use if i knew ~anything about eulora !
phf: by day to day i mean non-lisp stuff, but yeah, even taking that thing live revealed a lot of annoyances in cmucl (asciilifeform will say told you so) ☟︎
trinque: kinda how deedbot went, decided I'd go balls deep in common lisp and see what happens
phf: it gives me an opportunity to exhaustively explore technical questions, so ironically it's a more sophisticated piece of engineering than what i write for day to day
a111: Logged on 2016-04-12 13:19 mircea_popescu: incidentally : anyone on friendly terms with cs depts at unis / cs profs, plox get in touch, i have a little scheme i could use your halp with. ty!
phf: which reminds, ben_vulpes you still need me to give you wotpaste urls? i could probably produce a daily structured dump or somesuch
phf: it is live (i.e. it's a WAL), but if someone needs to read this data at frequency, talk to me to work something out
phf: i'll shuffle things around at some point so that the folder contains pre-t-a stuff too
phf: this is only the stuff that i'm producing, in the same format as kako's original
trinque: yup, I've seen a couple of those
mircea_popescu: incidentally : anyone on friendly terms with cs depts at unis / cs profs, plox get in touch, i have a little scheme i could use your halp with. ty! ☟︎☟︎
shinohai: I love how he pays Buttnix to write articles, then pops in the comments section like he doesn't own the site.
ben_vulpes: what can i say, i muck stables for room and board.
ben_vulpes: more like "we don't make much over here, and you don't ride bikes, so i don't think this cult is for you" ☟︎
phf: i have a bunch of work i want to put in into logs, just waiting for schedule to clear up
felipelalli: can I make a "gettrust" using deedbot?
phf: felipelalli: search is still not quite there yet, because i had a bandwidth limits, right now does straight up case-sensitive grep
felipelalli: there are a URL that keep the log of this channel? (please don't say "read the logs to know it") - and how can I search something in the log with deedbot? Is that possible?
felipelalli: o.o I just sleep some days and when I wake up... wow
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: i only asked because a few of the discussed items in the past were from your mailpile iirc.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform nope. it's public anyway, i wouldn't really do anything but point to the thread in private.
asciilifeform: i find it interesting that the enemy did not see it fit to try to sell us a clever dud
asciilifeform: ;;later tell mircea_popescu i take it no one again wrote in re the block cipher thing ?
mircea_popescu: o hey look at that, season two. I R ARLY EADOPTOR for once! ty #trilema!
mircea_popescu: then people wonder wtf i say trilema readership ~= 2x all of conde nast
mircea_popescu: "where i live we have no moneys no gear and do nothing all day long and my apt has cockroaches"
asciilifeform: i also recall the one with the buggery.
mircea_popescu: "in the us the nsa has powers and bla bla bla. why are you crying, little boy" "I WANT TO GO TO THE USA!!11" ☟︎
mircea_popescu: i suppose!
asciilifeform: l0l i suppose all warfare is 'vaguely homo'
mircea_popescu: yeah, and then you go into a tizzy when i consider how fat women on etsy "see themselves".
phf: there's 3 stores that sell sprats, beluga caviar, kefir, etc. within max 20 minutes of walking from where i am
asciilifeform: i kinda wonder now, what % of folks around here are su exiles
asciilifeform: in related nyooz, i go out of my zoo and think 'i will march in random direction', and lo and behold, a few km away, ru shop, sells sprats! etc
mircea_popescu: o i r wondert, wut is balabusta!
asciilifeform: i ~suspected~ l0l
mircea_popescu: I AM ON TO YOU
mircea_popescu: i dunno, deedbot got a lot of that too
phf: this job posting is ridiculously bad, and i wouldn't know about it if these "vital labs" people didn't have such poor taste to post it to lispjobs
asciilifeform: and if even mircea_popescu does not get car bomb, what hope do i have.
asciilifeform: i, for instance, have yet to even merit a traffic ticket
asciilifeform: i'm not certain that anybody cancelled the 'license to kill'
phf: i'm just failing to grok how that article warrants an "A-ha!" moment, when there's basically an endless stream of ineffectual aha-s for 90 some years (as far back as i read about this stuff)
phf: i don't know ~who~ you're explaining this to, but you're missing my point. nsa/gchq ideology is out in the open, so there's no need to read it into any random event. if a policeman beats up a nigger one day and saves a kitten from a tree another, there's really no reason to read "reinforcement of hegemony" into the second action, since there's the first one
asciilifeform: i have seen these folks in the flesh
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: one time, long ago, i pwned a sp4mz0r's box and it turned out that one of his pw's was 'balabusta'. i had the word in the back of my head ever since
phf: "I note from the IPS address template that certain parties – quite possibly of the Jewish persuasion – attempt from time to time to break into the site and destroy it."

mircea_popescu: i don't think you understand how teh world worx!
asciilifeform: it beat the shit out of the actual job i was doing previously !1111
asciilifeform: the korans were of a very spiffy edition that does not exist on our planet, every 'key phrase' was annotated in 6 languages, but only one of them was arabic, the 5 others i did not recognize as earthling scripts at all.
asciilifeform: in not entirely unrelatez nyooz, i had a dream that they passed out korans at the office, and bearded blokes walked around to inquire, regularly, how much each schmuck has read and understood.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: except the thing i 'all nutso' ~about~ was the very notion.
mircea_popescu: he did not. i asked him if he'd take you, as a personal favour. because you were going all nutso.
asciilifeform: but if i ever must build particle accelerator, i will very much study mircea_popescu's notes!
asciilifeform: http://btcbase.org/log/2016-04-11#1450020 << i can't help but wonder if mircea_popescu actually thinks the inside of his harem is relevant to other people. i find it interesting, yes, but it is rather like the inside of a particle accelerator - not particularly related to any situation i am likely to ever encounter imho. ☝︎
asciilifeform: i grasp how mircea_popescu might enjoy hunting idiots for sport from safe height of dirigible, and he has plenty of leisure for this, like medieval lord - but the time budget ~i~ have for idiots, is 0.
asciilifeform: i said ~interact~.
asciilifeform: hey i did not say i dun want them in my fuel filter
asciilifeform: just as i don't need mosquitoes
asciilifeform: i literally don't need them for anything
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: i am into not-interacting-with-imbeciles, of either sex, in any capacity whatsoever, if it can be at all helped.
asciilifeform: http://btcbase.org/log/2016-04-11#1450009 << literally 5min ago i got yet ANOTHER call from one of these imbeciles ☝︎
mircea_popescu: in other news, the article i'm writing now is titled "the fagspital"
asciilifeform: jurov: not mega-seekrit, iirc i explained it
