mod6: last year i had 22 tomato plants. this year im rotating the spot and probably will only do 10. but im gonna do a ton of cucumbers.
mod6: so might hvae a new version of `t' for ya to look at sometime this weekend. i've been cleaning up the graph. trying to get the sagas colorized (which is complete), but I wanna get all the disconnected graphs printing in a certain wa.
mod6: Yeah, it's real nice here too. I've actually gotta do a bit of yard work here in just a few mins.
mod6: hi, how goes it? are you in the wot yet? might be a good place to start.
BingoBoingo: Apparently a DHS officer broke today, writing up the story
BingoBoingo: I'll pm it for the time being. If we don't replace stats and ticker though it will be a pain not being able to link them in the logs from qntra when a story calls for it.
mod6: had a good laugh about all of this craig stuff lately.
asciilifeform: 'The /bin vs /usr/bin split (and all the others) is an artifact of this, a 1970's implementation detail that got carried forward for decades by bureaucrats who never question _why_ they're doing things. It stopped making any sense before Linux was ever invented, for multiple reasons...'
danielpbarron: a dozen or whatever fits in a reasonable box
danielpbarron: ya, you were gonna get me a quote on shipping cost
asciilifeform: danielpbarron: i forget, did you ever give me a place to send shirts to
danielpbarron: later tell worked for me a coupla hours ago ; turns out nubbins` intends to return my t-shirt payment
trinque: yep, gonna stand up a disposable box for this kind of thing
trinque: asciilifeform: can you think of a reason why passing $calc back to bc would be dangerous?
asciilifeform: i bet alikim picture mircea_popescu on a 'harley' even.
mircea_popescu: programming has for a long time been talent starved ; likely to continue indefinitely ; and you're certainly talented.
mircea_popescu: alikim i have a life and 5 live-in slavegirls. lost track of how many actual computers, but prolly close to a megawatt any given day. yet if i said "o btw i lost my key" i think everyone'd just stop breathing.
alikim: I have 4 computers and a life and I live with normal people, if you go on them like "I lost my pgp key, I lost my life" they suggest you visit a doctor.. or get laid and drunk in any order
mircea_popescu: alikim> ideal client would be a console app, it doesn't need 3d engine or visuals << word. jurov was sort-of working on this, actually.
alikim: I need to dig into how to run a copy of geometry on the client and that's too much for me, otherwise I could reuse network classes from the package and other stuff
danielpbarron: although that won't always be true, but certainly for the time being all that's needed is a console
alikim: ideal client would be a console app, it doesn't need 3d engine or visuals
mircea_popescu: trinque why's more than a coupla needed ?
phf: pretty safe bet, if a111 is missing, logs dead, but no worries they are still being recored with my bouncer. i'm almost done with a better logger, that reconnects. will take it live over the weekend
trinque: incidentally, the WoT may be the only social system capable of operating at the scale of a planetary system.
jurov: planning a family?
trinque: how many humans does it take to own a solar system?
trinque: this idea that we depopulate the earth down to a million individuals or something is not unlike the nerd fantasy that he'd really like his brain to live in a jar in some robot than in his body
trinque: how many humans on earth does it take to raise an army worth a shit? obviously there is not a single answer to that question because then the other guy gets n+1 and it runs away until you're back at now.
trinque: it means to have your species as the dominant predatory species in a given area
asciilifeform: (there was once a (3) - plow, but i prefer tractor)
asciilifeform: i obviously can't speak for mircea_popescu , but personally even cunt is not a get-out-of-biodiesel-free card as far as i'm concerned.
mircea_popescu: and this is exactly how it goes with "we just want to ask you a few questions", which is why you don't talk to the police, and everything else.
asciilifeform: just as mircea_popescu said, it was a pointless exercise.
mircea_popescu: it's not a matter of "build better mouse trap" only.
asciilifeform: then when i and a buncha blokes opened a co that offered thing that would analyze crapware WITHOUT USING VM, that is, on ordinary x86 (but with some hardware magic),
asciilifeform: likewise a large fraction of samples on vt don't even ~run there~
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: a very large share of the samples on vt are 'not detected'
mircea_popescu: obviously, a wikipedia page.

trinque: yeah, not to be a broken record, but had we a gossipd, I'd just give people I trust access to dangerous tools.
mircea_popescu: trinque nah, just put it in here, with a 1kb limit.
mircea_popescu: so a very limited sort of bash access.
mircea_popescu: yeah speaking of which, anyone of the botmasters, young or old, wanna make a gribble replacement ?
mircea_popescu: that's what you get for being a terminal blessed with the daily touch of a gomided such as myself!
mircea_popescu: that's a red herring. aptly displayed on my terminal in red font.
asciilifeform: well, not being a demigod like mircea_popescu , i actually rely on other people to want to.
mircea_popescu: cuz this "i want FOR X to Y" ain't a want, it's a voodoo.
asciilifeform: with that in mind, i am good at a reasonable breadth of things, but again 99% of the employment in them, in as far as i can access, is usg.
mircea_popescu: lol. "the sewage goes into this pond i live in" "you need to live in a better pond" "didn't we discuss the whole i'm not walking on land again thing???"
asciilifeform: and yeah it took a few rehashes of contract.
mircea_popescu: do you tell them during interview that a) everything you agree to will have to be presented in writing ; b) you will not do x y or z and soo n ?
asciilifeform: just as well that i am leaving rupture farmz, because a few honest folks there finally informed me of what i already knew, which is that i was being 'warehoused'
asciilifeform: but in point of fact there is a tool.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform yes but he has a point, the derp brain is memetic not rational. "the x of y"
asciilifeform: in bitcoin addr there is a ~hash~
asciilifeform: thing is, no sane person WANTS a vanity - that is CONSTRAINED SPACE - rsa key
asciilifeform: found a somewhat more modest but 'you get xxxxx done, we pay' sort of deal.
mircea_popescu: you're not only a stakebunny, but also a total stake slut! keep changing them.
mircea_popescu: pity usagi is not here to generate some keys for later. iirc he had a service to generate long rsa keys for people.
trinque: asciilifeform: key still identifies a point in time if it produced any signed material
asciilifeform: how often does somebody show up with a '90s key here
mircea_popescu: andre "what happens when enemy gets wind" 1. this is a very valuable canary for such a wonderous change in the enemy ; 2. time offers a natural breaking point, we're protected well by the configuration of the field.
mircea_popescu: note that ~all us "Science and Engineering" consists of young men doing homework in a poorly managed, ineptly driven manner collectively known as "phd"
mircea_popescu: (in retrospect, from my very instructive republican experience, im discovering that the principal job of management actually is to decide when to and when not to duplicate work. it's a much deeper point than it seems.)
trinque: it heads towards deedbot being a keyserver too, already sorta is with $key
trinque: I'm gonna need to upgrade the box, but that's been on my list for a while anyway
mircea_popescu: in any case, the driver for this thought process in my head is, believe it or not, the messing around with phf re beefy few days ago. seems a deeply valuable learning experience, to be exposed to large sets in this sense.
asciilifeform: anyway it's doable, but you gotta think about what happens when enemy gets wind and generates a quintillion crud keys.
asciilifeform: the big deal is that a db that gets ~added to~ is not so simple as 'tree of 40 levels'
mircea_popescu: seems to me it'd be a tree, 40 deep. whats teh big deal
asciilifeform: 'there aint no such thing as a free lunch'
mircea_popescu: on some level it seems one shouldn't be precluded in rating a key merely because the owner of that key failed to register it with teh republic.
asciilifeform: and when i say 'show me a place ~not~ ruled by usg muppets where a cultured man might want to live' mircea_popescu laughs.
a111: Logged on 2016-05-06 04:46 mircea_popescu: he's competent, economically. better, what's that. he's a faithful usg muppet, working to make the place more in line with washington's interest.
mircea_popescu: what is it, a sort of orc ?
mircea_popescu: like a meme ?
felipelalli: I think Theymos made the right choice to censor (what lead to a split) the subreddit. Now /r/btc is filled with a bunch of derps; it's amazing how they attract each other! <amazing company>
mircea_popescu: hm, i wonder if a portuguese qntra section'd be worth it.
mircea_popescu: the guy from kentucky has half a dozen broken cars on plastic foil in front of his house ; the guy from brazil has half dozen broken rights on plastic foil in front of his house.
felipelalli: the rich are anti-comm but they are more "statits" than anyone. They really love a strong strong State
mircea_popescu: do you know what's the difference between a guy from brazil and a guy from kentucky ?
felipelalli: we have a *lot* of "rights
mircea_popescu: i bet if you torture dilma in like a medieval dungeon to tell you the truth, why the fuck she did it,
felipelalli: because Dilma made a lot of voluntaryists!!
felipelalli: I am a voluntaryist, and we are "splited" about the situation here.
mircea_popescu: fuckall, i'd much prefer living in a city among civilised folk. but this isn't on offer.
mircea_popescu: most annoying dilemma, do you want to live on a farm, or do you want to live in a republic of farm animals ?!
felipelalli: I was only once in Argentina, in a Bitcoin event
mircea_popescu: he's competent, economically. better, what's that. he's a faithful usg muppet, working to make the place more in line with washington's interest. ☟︎
mircea_popescu: well, ran out of venezuela one way or another, needed a job.
felipelalli: Hi mircea_popescu ! yes, you are right!! ahahh. It's incredible that she doesn't renounce. That kind of people is always a dog with a bone.
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo that "boatoshi" thing has a future methinks :D
mircea_popescu: it's a pleasure to read their fishwraps.
a111: Logged on 2016-05-05 19:05 asciilifeform: where a chick is no longer appealing to pipe runners and looks for office bag
mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2016-05-05#1463753 << wtf, nobody wants a noob cunt anymore than a noob computer science expert. ☝︎
asciilifeform: i am off to - so help me satan - a golf field.
BingoBoingo: But this is 'Murica. If she thinks she can bag a hard working trades man god damn it she will spend a good chunk of her week in that pursuit.
asciilifeform: same thing employer's opinions have to do with a stinking bum's behaviour ?
