lobbesbot: Logged on 2018-04-30 06:58:50: <mircea_popescu> well, if pinochle fellow gets around
to modeling it properly, we might even find out what
they're worth!
mircea_popescu: in
the end
the "very valuable" "premium" domain found 0 economic utility.
ben_vulpes: it has six extra days for ease of calendrical bookkeeping, let me know if
this does not suit or i misunderstand in some way.
ben_vulpes: that invoice
takes you
through
the end of april 2019
a111: Logged on 2018-04-24 18:35 deedbot: Invoiced mircea_popescu .0336 << shared hosting for s.mg april 24 2018
through april 30 2019
mircea_popescu: eh, so it's one line in response
to human agency, how bad can it be.
lobbes: word. well, if folx start
to
think it is getting
too spammy, let me know
trinque: doesn't seem
to me like
they're doing any harm as
they work currently.
lobbes: later-tell reminded me
to pose
this q
to
the court: Should later-tells go
to pm or stay in-channel?
trinque: or whatever
the magic number is. but
there is one.
trinque: ^ if it's skipping forward faster
than 6 at a
time, it's not going
to barf
them all up.
lobbesbot: trinque: Sent 5 hours and 35 minutes ago: <asciilifeform> deedbot seems
to have skipped a number of phuctor rss
ticks
today
trinque: lets people decide not
to use
the part
that's grafted
to postgres
ben_vulpes: mircea_popescu: if lobbes wants
to run ircbot separately, without
the logbot functionality, he could if he liked, and without
taking a dependency on
the logbot stuffs. 'tis why
they're separate
trees.
ben_vulpes: your listening process just needs
to 'listen log_new_message' and
then use whatever
the wait-for-message abstraction is in
the programming language for your responding service
to wait for
the primary key
to come in, read
that line out of
the
table and
then either insert a response into outbox with
the appropriate
target or not as it chooses
mircea_popescu: you know you've run
this
thing in a pretty confusing manner!
there's like... 3 roots people don't know which
to pick ?
ben_vulpes: logbot does everything
that ircbot does and in addition writes everything it sees
to
the log
table
lobbes: ah, okay, perhaps I'm doing
this wrong. I assumed
that I needed both
the ircbot and logbot
to be running and connected
to irc concurrently
lobbes: okay, so I should be able
to run
the logbot-with-multiple-channels-corrected portion as long as I run
the ircbot portion as
the original?
ben_vulpes: lobbes: iirc make-logbot still works but it is make-ircbot
that does not
lobbes: my logbot-genesis instance worx fine, but I will need
to have
this
thing sitting in at least
two channels
a111: Logged on 2017-12-24 18:26 asciilifeform: you changed 'channel' slot in ircbot class
to 'channels', but never bothered
to change
the corresponding line in make-ircbot !! ben_vulpes )
pinochle: have not read, but will now ;
that is encouraging, so lets get
to work
mircea_popescu: there's a humongous swath of republican land just waiting for a plow shaped exactly like a
trader's who studied probability in school and spends his days building predictive models.
pinochle: deconstruct, refine and communicate on republican
terms and in consumable bites ;
that is what I shall do
pinochle: there is not a word I disagree with ; so I have errored in
that way, but
the path forward is clear
mircea_popescu: which is also why anonimity is
the pantsuit-mandated mode of behaviour for intelligent zeks online.
mircea_popescu: "here's a black box", howsoever implemented in practice, "really lengthy patch you don't have
the
time
to read" or "my poker bot" or whatever, is not-this.
mircea_popescu: but
the key
to survival is working with others ; and
the key
to
the others being others rather
than just shitty clones of yourself is for
them
to be independently intelligent ; and
then in
turn
the key
to working with independently intelligent folk is... making it possible for
them
to work with you!
pinochle: I see ; a motivating factor for going off and building was, selfishly,
to learn
mircea_popescu: alright ; and you figure "hey, i implemented a poker bot" is
this ?
a111: Logged on 2018-04-29 14:58 mircea_popescu: yes, it was.
to summarize, careful what you do with your patches, in
the following sense : if diana_coman doesn't CONTINUE your patch, it will have
to be reground later. as she's a human being with other problems and interests
than folding in your alt universe, it helps IMMENSELY if you make your patches small and readable.
jhvh1: mod6:
The operation succeeded.
mod6: !~later
tell jurov Please check
the ML pipes, I
think I got one stuck.
pinochle: in
the past I worked as a
trader ; studied probability in school ; current work is building predictive models, often an exercise in futility
a111: Logged on 2018-04-20 16:38 ben_vulpes: pinochle: reg a key and build a name now, lest you build
the
thing and nobody uses it because who is
this person
zx2c4: ahh you saw
this
then
zx2c4: enjoyable
to read conspiracy
theorizing from well qualified academics
zx2c4: re:your ECC skepticism and RSA-love -- a while back
the NSA changed
the Suite B recommendations
to partially remove ECC for new crypto systems and also removed P256 IIRC.
There was a great paper analyzing what
the possible motivations could be, i
think called 'an enigma inside a riddle' or something goofy like
that. Let me find it...
lobbesbot: asciilifeform:
The operation succeeded.
zx2c4: mircea_popescu: by
the way ive wanted
to dig
this up for you
the last
two weeks and keep forgetting
trinque: my pizarro node's about 90k from
the
top, getting
there
mod6: The foundation's is nearly caught up as well, adding another
to
the list.
a111: Logged on 2017-12-24 16:11 asciilifeform: kurchatov, supposedly, sat and
thought, and few minutes later answered, 'perhaps from philosophical pov
this'd be consistent. but
then we will have
to forget about obtaining
the bomb.'
mircea_popescu: meanwhile
the pantsuit notion of "girl" is relevant in
this world, or attaches
to my chattels, exactly in
the sense and
to
the degree cate blanchett is relevant
to elizabeth
the 1st.
mircea_popescu: sort-of like how soviet library would offer you "lenin's writings on
tensors" if you were looking for anything done by imperialist-burgeois authors in
the field.
mircea_popescu: "heart opening" fucking yoga jesus f christ. essentially
the future function of google will be as pantsuit-rappropiation-engine, "here's spurious associations of our irrelevant crap
to actually interesting
things you may understandably be interested about".
mircea_popescu: very fucking
totally "girl",
ty wikipedia, merriam-webster and indistinct jumble of entirely unrelated messes. AI PREVAILS!
mircea_popescu: back at reality ranch, pie dough out of a pound of butter
takes like 2kgs of flour, and is enough
to feed a whole regiment
two days.
mircea_popescu: and in other "holy shit
these people", flour bag comes with apple pie recipe. which is just as well cuz gals just baked one.
the flour bag recipe calls for... 3-4 apples, HALF A POUNT OF BUTTER and
two.5 cups flour.
BingoBoingo: Anyways,
turns out Irish girls are getting fat like estadounidense girls circa 2010
BingoBoingo: Their answer
to
that point is
that "the company" cares.
They aren't very clear on
that leading me
to suspect
they are human
trafficking chattel brought in on a sort of year long vacation package which gives
them an allowance while "the company" milks
the money from
the "teaching" on at least a couple sides.
BingoBoingo: Turns out
the answer is a bunch of Irish potato nigger "English
Teachers" doing a visa run from Argentina.
BingoBoingo: In other news
the hostel
this weekend is full.
The staff helpfully let me know in advance so I could prepare. Given it is Autumn and
the weather
this weekend is biased
towards
torrential downpours I wondered "Who would be vacationing here at a
time like
this?"
BingoBoingo: If only
there were still a prediction market
that could be used for evaluating
the proposition "Schengen Exit Visas When?"
mircea_popescu: the whole "copyright" bs is very much equivalent
to "los malvinas son argentinas", and other commercial claims
they do not have.
mircea_popescu: us has succeded in its aspiration
to be argentina. it exists as a pretend-country on
the basis of foreign capital markets.
ben_vulpes: i'm curious who's going
to pay
the 48MM
mircea_popescu: nobody is poor because
they're fucking stupid and generally worthless ;
they're poor because i'm mean or some dumb shit like
that.
mircea_popescu: well, in
their alt-universe poverty is also someone else's fault.
mircea_popescu: i'll grant it's a little difficult
to guess what's going on from far away. if you don't say anything people are going
to eventually assume something random.
zx2c4: and
then got super busy
mircea_popescu: especially. minigame is working on adding some fg code
to eucrypt as it is, she'll prolly include your stuff if she can, so
there you go. make it small, make it readable, start with one
thing at a
time and so on.
esthlos: mircea_popescu: I will watch for
that. Last
thing I want
to do is
to waste anyone's
time
mircea_popescu: contrary
to
the counterfactual reality us shyster constructed, "copyrights" bs.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform, hard
to pick
the relevant
transforms from
the box, what can i say. if
this weren't
the case "computer security" would be more akin hygiene.
