mircea_popescu: put it in teh rss.
mircea_popescu: works.
mircea_popescu: hopefully lasers are involved.
mircea_popescu: supposedly it'll also need small soul eventually. aanyway.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform i am somewhat unsurprised the immediate reaction is to take the matter outside of the computer.
mircea_popescu: but this discussion would definitely benefit from clear domain definition and numeric measurements, as trinque well points out.
mircea_popescu: worx.
mircea_popescu: gotta solve this dispute somehow. the correct somehow is to start bolting down parts. first we check this, then we can see if it's a matter of cl implementation is fine, ui is bad.
mircea_popescu: but yes, whatever.
mircea_popescu: the whole machine.
mircea_popescu: hey, he said benchmark, i proposed a benchmark. lotta branching lotta iterations, some memory allocation. should be plenty obvious.
mircea_popescu: alf's touchy-feely notions of "slow" aren't particularily interesting, but it would be worth noting if it takes 10x or 100x the cycles to deliver the same result.
mircea_popescu: ie, "how slow the stack is"
mircea_popescu: trinque q was more as to how long it takes.
mircea_popescu: bad connection generally.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform interestingly, the only time i ever encountered such delays before was on ssh sessions.
mircea_popescu: say, yest.
mircea_popescu: trinque run mp hash for 512 bits on a day's worth of logs, report ?
mircea_popescu: there's an impedance mismatch between description and labeling though. i expect my wine bottle to say "wine bottle" rather than the more accurate "dubious suspension of tanic acid salts in water"
mircea_popescu: i dunno why i was under the impression it was 210 + laptop.
mircea_popescu: you know, usual silicon valley.
mircea_popescu: something something battlestarship something something new decentralized something intertwat.
mircea_popescu: in other bottle news, http://68.media.tumblr.com/92ca59abba19da3ab9de9e5341c07250/tumblr_n8cwr0PqdI1snitl1o7_1280.jpg
mircea_popescu: same either*
mircea_popescu: i can't evaluate same ever ; after some cursory attempts to help the evaluation i'm resigned to let it evaluate itself.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform aty, fixt.
mircea_popescu: i know but why would you use the ssh client as a text editor
mircea_popescu: why would i type ?
mircea_popescu: i feed it prepared lines.
mircea_popescu: who the hell types into the ssh ?
mircea_popescu: that it crashes your ssh client, gains control of your box as the user that ran it, escalates it to root privilege, installs a rootkit that you can't take out without throwing out the mobo + hdd and disappears in a puff of smoke.
mircea_popescu: the new decentralized internet huh.
mircea_popescu: anyway. the note is somewhat sour.
mircea_popescu: this is readily the more promising lulzatron of the period.
mircea_popescu: https://intelligence.org/2015/12/11/openai-and-other-news/
mircea_popescu: or did yuko merely get cast off
mircea_popescu: o hey check it out, rats merged ?
mircea_popescu: im telling you it's the same one
mircea_popescu: !~google peter thiel openai
mircea_popescu: this is it.
mircea_popescu: ha-HA! ?
mircea_popescu: !~google elon musk openai
mircea_popescu: iirc it was musk's
mircea_popescu: (ftr, the musk "friendly ai" thingee had NINE employees. to medium's 150.)
mircea_popescu: i fail to see this potential. looks entirely like "hey guise, let's agree on definition of ai that allows the pretense of sv technologee to survive a little longer plox "
mircea_popescu: my only regret is that it's not written in javascript.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform you seen openai gym btw ?
mircea_popescu: aha.
mircea_popescu: i'm hard pressed to see anything in the "65bn" worth of vaporware that ycombinator counts for itself. they did what, a bunch of groupons/mediums ? ie, shareholder fraud of the cooked books version and shareholder fraud of the pie in the sky version ?
mircea_popescu: plus the occasional actual item finds its way out of there.
mircea_popescu: yes but when greater fool went from being microsoft to being us fed, the standards relaxed.
mircea_popescu: yeah, ye olde "sam altman is the repository of the human decency of being a trite fuckwit just like sam altman"
mircea_popescu: a decade ago there was some cursory but detectable ranking by sense. much more gimmicky today.
mircea_popescu: it doesn't matter. there's no "supposition of competence" for handpuppets.
mircea_popescu: competence is the only criterion.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform stoya is a competent fucktoy. altman is not a competent anything.
mircea_popescu: https://archive.is/NbEAj << in other lulz.
mircea_popescu: of course, the woman vastly outperforms him, but whatevs. weirdos abound.
mircea_popescu: 50something. the altman handpuppet is iirc stoya's age.
mircea_popescu: anyway, he's young enough. plenty of maga-time.
mircea_popescu: neither did hitler. lived rest of life in "bunker", very different.
mircea_popescu: evidently not so waterproof.
mircea_popescu: i don't care. there's no need for each individual item to be discussed. guy exists today because of the yahoo marketing ponzi scheme pre 2001 bubble. nfi why he's not in jail, but it is a shameful macula on the usg "justice" system.
mircea_popescu: im not quoting that scammer.
mircea_popescu: ty
mircea_popescu: right
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform recall who we quoted re the "where are all the 5000 rubensen" argument ?
mircea_popescu: working, not working- what's important is what's inside.
mircea_popescu: or no, wait. it might have not worked. but whatever, same difference.
mircea_popescu: hey, worked for the hearnia.
mircea_popescu: a... "presence storm" ?
mircea_popescu: check it out, dita von teese voted most likely to future.
mircea_popescu: lmao
mircea_popescu: in other lulz http://akimg2.ask.fm/4b1/a6cac/da24/4cb1/b70d/57cea84b2f6d/normal/693913.jpg (brought to you by radu photography)
mircea_popescu: piles of asusen will eat the phenoms.
mircea_popescu: block reward!
mircea_popescu: to compare and contrast, http://btcbase.org/log/2015-12-16#1344279 ☝︎
mircea_popescu: rather curious how trump will navigate the dire straights of maga absolutely requiring a repeal of 20 years' worth of "harassment" business.
mircea_popescu: https://web.archive.org/web/20041207225119/http://www.courttv.com/archive/legaldocs/government/packwood2.html << in other "can do whatevers", packwood, a 1980s powerhouse (singlehandedly fucked up clinton's own obamacare, among other highlights), chased out of senate because he may have kissed a girl at a party and stuff of that nature.
mircea_popescu: those damned foreigners dun understand how the world works properly, desk fliers stuck doing it in garage.
mircea_popescu: they had a whole "military operation planning" thingee with a map and errything, just like in the movies.
mircea_popescu: lulz of all time.
mircea_popescu: !~google joint task force for the national capital region
mircea_popescu: in other lulz, schumer now crying over the "great victory" of "nuclear option" because guess what ? taking headcount to confirm from 60 to 51 mostly helps... trump.
mircea_popescu: quite.
mircea_popescu: since when the fuck does the whore get to score the john. get up on the stage and flash the goods.
mircea_popescu: eh dorks with delusions of self importance.
mircea_popescu: i imagine beyonce + rap band was the menu, neh ?
mircea_popescu: we're discussing obama here. i assume it must be something akin to the man - stole a name, ran with it.
mircea_popescu: "inauguration won't include yo yo ma, an obscure act trying to capitalize on random phrase spoken by cosmo kramer 20 years ago"
mircea_popescu: and in butthurt today, http://edition.cnn.com/2017/01/05/politics/trump-inauguration-performers/
mircea_popescu: yeah amd went the way of gaddafi even as intel went the way of obama.
mircea_popescu: what next, cisco networking hardware ?
mircea_popescu: i don't think anyone is seriously proposing intel makes cpus.
mircea_popescu: what was it, raid controller ?
mircea_popescu: slowly building the "tmsr hardware" thing. iirc there was another item also ☟︎☟︎
mircea_popescu: aha
mircea_popescu: say a name alfie.
mircea_popescu: but yes, i was thinking for domestic desktop.
mircea_popescu: which ?
