Mocky: i was trying to figure out what madness was behind an stl <set> not having a 'contains()' method, and turns out designer isn'
t dumb after all
mod6: Mocky: it's a wonder isn'
t it
mircea_popescu: just because your intermediate-new country lost most of the traditions of old country in its quest to be acceptable by the god-on-a-hill dun mean they weren'
t there.
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo yeah, seriously, eat well but work out. don'
t turn into one of the local married galz.
BingoBoingo: Seriously Imma have to put myself on a diet or get serious about fitness. I can'
t outwalk all the choripan... which is somehow more fattening when I make it myself
mircea_popescu: i don'
t think i ever talked to a brazilian male, thinking about it.
BingoBoingo: The Brasileros manage to have a different accent every kilometer, but can'
t have sounds that aren'
t gayboi
BingoBoingo: I really don'
t know how they manage to flirt and reproduce when they lack linguistic sexual dimorphism
mircea_popescu: my perl can'
t even locate xml/simple.pm in @inc, how about that.
mircea_popescu: they're always very "creative", with their nonsense, the monkeys, aren'
t they. little baskets to comemorate Goddess in basket form can always be found. they can'
t add, of course, and don'
t wash between the toes. creative math or creative hygiene, where they self-improve in actual fields where they're marginal, this NEVER happens
☟︎ trinque: mircea_popescu: yeah. I have to say this floopy-typing of functions in lisp isn'
t something of which I *ever* make constructive use.
mircea_popescu: trinque i wouldn'
t fucking bother. people can learn to use proper paste.
xdeller: e.g. one link which hasn`
t dissolved yet had non-text content-type
xdeller: afaics voice/devoice doesn`
t work on myself
trinque: haven'
t found it in logs yet
trinque: asciilifeform: I don'
t have any nick like that registered
diana_away: myeah, I gave it a thought but it wasn'
t the right thought as it turns out
mircea_popescu has also thrown diana_away 's kid in the pool, something the kid didn'
t like any.
mircea_popescu: haven\'
t really been paying any attention, but as a matter of principle.
BingoBoingo: I don'
t see how the allegations are any different from using a "Game shark" on a Nintendo
a111: Logged on 2018-06-19 16:55 mircea_popescu: douchebag looky, the place's not for you. you're not smart enough to be here. what's so hard to grok about this ? some people are smart, some people aren'
t smart, you're not smart. what, you have to be dragged out, your legs don'
t work, what is it ?
BingoBoingo: Sure, the subcontinent doesn'
t really have a strong mestizo equivalent
mircea_popescu: because they hallucinated freedoms they didn'
t have, therefore they went from hero to zero.
mod6: warez the mirror at? agree, didn'
t see the links to it in articles. bunch of MP & trilema quotes tho.
mircea_popescu: so do you. it's after all how fg ended up named fg, isn'
t it. and how we got rid of, eg, pete_douchenski
mircea_popescu: certainly. but we also don'
t need weak ones for any purpose (or, in that sense, already "have")
mircea_popescu: but the nonmarginal doesn'
t have the problem here discussed, as part of the definition of nonmarginal.
mircea_popescu: i don'
t hold it against the males that manage to make it
BingoBoingo: Precision clocks aren'
t too expensive if you aren'
t trying to fly them, but it's yet another thing to power
trinque: before aggression, I saw long periods where it wasn'
t doing a damned thing
ben_vulpes: asciilifeform: i don'
t actually know of this deformity
ben_vulpes: the problem isn'
t your /posture/, kids, it's your /lifestyle/
ben_vulpes: haven'
t even heard a peep about putting trans rights into the corporate handbook in at least three years!
mircea_popescu: an' i betcha it's because they "don'
t feel" it "fair" to ~exclude~ anything. rendering any count impossible. which is very much the point.
mircea_popescu: also no guarantee it doesn'
t spark who knows what in who knows who's head.
mircea_popescu: tbh i don'
t think anyone at all familiar with the functioning of hardware init can propose the tradition is worth continuing with a straight face.
mircea_popescu: it's easy to read fast when you don'
t understand anything.
mircea_popescu: tu quoque, have spent time and effort doing all sorts of things with your life, none of which are bad or wrong per se. yet it never occured to you "must learn language" in any effectual sense. this'd be a natural occurence though, wouldn'
t you say ? what disocurred it for you ? how come you went in all the rooms in the palace but one ?
Mocky: sounds like a bill murrray, dan aykroyd "don'
t cross the streams" item
mircea_popescu: to be perfectly clear, girly wasn'
t impaired, she just spoke what it happens to be she had heard. not of within, but of without, which is the point.
mircea_popescu: HOWEVER... none of them can remember his name. because, see, he can'
t have one, because, see, he fails most of the handshakes. but nobody notices, because... he speaks italian.
mircea_popescu: language isn'
t innate, but acquired, is the fundamental point really.
mircea_popescu: you fished some name from teh scholarly tradition, which i now don'
t recall.
mircea_popescu: actually, i very much don'
t think someone respectable who ~doesn'
t~ have a train of weeping instagram whores "accusing".
trinque: the lizards don'
t have any other moves these days, than to "scandalize" and then pout impotently when it does nothing, or backfires
a111: Logged on 2018-08-15 21:49 mircea_popescu: and since i'm doing "strategic superiority in review" for some reason, do we count
http://trilema.com/2017/lets-put-one-and-two-together/#selection-145.0-149.12 as having protected trump / fizzled the "impeachment" lulz ? or "coincidental" in the sense man who says he's going to do x doesn'
t do it not because "if you do it ima fuck you up" but for ~coincidental reasons altogether~.
mircea_popescu: and so, to bring this around, i always said that
http://btcbase.org/log/2018-04-30#1806663 ; here's a fine example of what is meant -- the guy with "plaque is the result of infection", like the guy with "homosexuality is biological", like the guy with "guns kill", like the guy with "don'
t tell women how to behave, tell men how to behave", like the guy with "stupidity isn'
t stupidity, but a thing of reason" are in the end the
☝︎ mircea_popescu: the "ideas", if you can call them so, that people in caves "develop" aren'
t in any sense discoveries. john smith's uncomprehending mimicry of catholic dogma isn'
t "inspired" by scholastic writings. he just reproduced the twat cheese, much like shepherd "talking to the stars" in
http://trilema.com/2012/luomo-delle-stele/ rediscovers presocratic wankery.
mircea_popescu: but filth sure as fuck isn'
t infectious ; and the cvasi-religious beliefs of the subhuman horde neither. they don'
t end up dirty and stupid because transmission, but because nature.
mircea_popescu: honestly, this seems the correct representation. "filth is part of the human body" "whence ?" "if you don'
t wash it shows up" "so ?" "and it's somewhat predictable in form and substance. and odour" "so ?"
mircea_popescu: but we don'
t normally speak of "the spread of the disappearance of hot water in progressive europe".
mircea_popescu: if there existed a different (cheaper!) universal solvent with low polarity and immense thermic innertia living things would perhaps consist of mostly that, rather than mostly water. but this still wouldn'
t be a contagion, nor would be the "alternative" "preferred" in any meaningful sense.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform exactly the idea. "not washing hands" isn'
t contagious. nobody "not washes hands" because "something they read".
mircea_popescu: idiots will want for "nothing bad to happen" and will trade "nothing to happen altogether" for it, if need be. this isn'
t because something they heard, or because something someone said.
mircea_popescu: this, of course, is false. atp is not "a virus", it just happens to be the cheapest item with those properties that can be had. living things are made predominently of water, but this isn'
t a contagion. this is a necessity.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform yes! example : "As a non-Universalist, I can'
t help but admire the success of this particular replicator. It is brilliantly designed, like the smallpox virus. The fact that no one actually designed it, any more than someone designed the smallpox virus, that it is simply the result of adaptive selection in a highly competitive environment, heightens rather than detracts from my awe."
mircea_popescu: it doesn'
t in fact "transmit" anymore than the adenosine triphosphate cycle, or the carnot cycle. it's either there or not, schelling point of reality.
mircea_popescu: you can'
t imagine just how fucking cute they are, btw.
mircea_popescu: but anyway, should i see one with signs be sure i'll squish it. if the gekkos don'
t get to it first.
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: Well, Argentina won'
t take em. They won'
t fit or be escpecially welcome in Uruguay... They are kinda stuck waiting in New York, California, and Chicago
mircea_popescu: the sad part being that now that i found what i thought i was looking for, i discover that much better reference would be something else i turned up in the search, that i wasn'
t specifically looking for.
mircea_popescu: i imagined this is behind the temptation to "fix" loggers, but it totally can'
t be fixed there.
a111: Logged on 2015-05-11 00:08 mircea_popescu: This would also be why I don'
t think so very much of the libertards, and why I find myself so often in contradiction with people who view them as either powerful or in any sense a threat (usually both) : they aren'
t, either, nor could they really be, either, because the only tool they know actually works for them only a short distance of its run, and for us the entire length of that same run. The libertard's gambit is
mircea_popescu: incidentally, since we're doing lost arts, where the fuck did i state the pantsuit's problem of integration (ie, that pantsuitism doesn'
t stand a chance in the republic because the republic integrates it) in the terminology that "this sword cuts for them a portion of the way and for us the whole way" ? ie, that they're always dependent on state, whatever shit they come up with gotta be carefully ~stopped~ on various slippery
☟︎ mircea_popescu: in the end, meaningful socialism depends on this, yes ? if it weren'
t the [injust, btw] "control of the means of reading", anyone could be a factory owner. no ? are not all people born capable of reading ? it is only the envious piling up of glasses by ~some~ that prevent ~the rest of us~ from reading. especially the young.
mircea_popescu: problems being that a) i already linked it and b) doesn'
t even say "name"
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform what happens to be iyo the cannonical piece re "mp explains non-wot items can'
t properly be said to have a name" ?
a111: Logged on 2018-08-14 21:11 mircea_popescu: the necessary correlate to "no, you can'
t have your lunch and eat it too, just as you couldn'
t when you asked me earlier, and just as you won'
t later on", ie, "you won'
t get the answer you wish to hear no matter how many times you ask", ie, immutably in front of idiocy -- there's not that much to lose, not really, out of public conversation.
