phf: if you're buying your schemes from supermarket, sure, but my point is that technique is available as part of the dictionary. can do
a hybrid from there, i.e. compiled subtrate
phf: why perverse? it's pretty standard for scheme to be compiled to C, it's
a classical cps technique, sort of
a couple of next chapters away from how tinyscheme is
a classical interpreter
mod6: i've only used one clojure application and it was
a very haphazardly implemented docker-like thingy.
mod6: ugh. so wait, instead of
a general lisp interpeter its compiled into jvm byte code? what abortion is this?
mod6: what is the black magic behind the scenes? is it not based upon
a lambda calc?
ben_vulpes: going up to clojure/west to acquire
a few more problems
mod6: im tinkering around with lexical parsing with scheme for
a sec here.
gernika: If asciilifeform ever accidentally ends up at the same hotel as
a rails convention, I expect to see
a lot of shattered teeth on the floor.
jurov: "In my experience, software bloat almost always comes from smart, often the smartest, devs who are technically the most competent. Couple their abilities with
a few narrowly interpreted constraints,
a well-intentioned effort to save the day.."
phf: haskell's answer was to pretend like von neumann machine doesn't exist,
a goal at which it failed in various interesting ways
trinque: davout: no way in hell I'd run such
a thing without it involving the airgap dance.
davout: trinque:
a hot wallet is absolute heresy
mats: i initially started with ~15btc in my coinbr piggy
a little more than two years ago, deposited another 15
a year later. today, i'm walking away with 60btc in profit and
a 30btc stake in s.nsa
mircea_popescu: i don't see hospitals using bags of "saline" that come with
a "warning : not suitable for use" on them.
mircea_popescu: the thing clearly says "no guarantee not even for fitness to
a particular purpose". if you use such items in your "safety engineering" you're liable.
davout: hehe, precisely
a soft-fork indeed
davout: re
a better specified auction deadline, i think it's best to precise it to "the end of wednesday the 6th of april, in whatever timezone this event happens last"
mircea_popescu: someone pretending to do dev work and not being in wot is ipso facto saying "i am
a fraudster trying to sell my shit as software".
davout: like
a changetip inside deedbot?
davout: deedbot acting like
a wallet
phf: auction seems like
a slow day feature for deedbot
davout: apperently, according to condesk it got shut down after
a 15 btc theft
davout: asciilifeform: there was,
a long time ago
davout: ;;later tell pete_dushenski you have
a point, i did not specify
a timezone for "the end of wednesday the 6th of april"
mircea_popescu: but the way mpoe happened was that basically i threw up the idea in chan and
a bunch of the people then-active commented and so on.
mircea_popescu: davout yeah, was
a guy active in 2011/2012 that then disappeared.
mircea_popescu: for most of the land barely even had
a census mechanism.
mircea_popescu: i dunno. who in 1900 had
a large bureaucracy ? the chinese, and they got raped.
mircea_popescu: gotta appreciate - the us started exactly as
a sort of tmsr of rich smugglers in an england province. conceptually it still sees broadly as this "gentleman's agreement" things etc.
danielpbarron: i wouldn't mind cutting them
a check so much if they came and asked for it; I can't stand this whole "you do our work for us" ritual americans do every april
mircea_popescu: course, i suppose
a wife could be found for the govt to cut the deal with.
mircea_popescu: of course unlike that guy you don't have either millions in assets nor
a wife more than happy to get it all in exchange for paying tax on it
mircea_popescu: ironically i linked
a piece about some other famous tax quarrel guy, who said the same thing (from jail)
mircea_popescu: actual young man goes into unrepayable debt, spends altogether maybe
a year or so on the thing ?
mircea_popescu: mmmno. you're thinking of
a young man that doesn't exist.
mircea_popescu: we know for
a fact it's no crime to be poor, and what follows is that the law doesn't apply to you, just be poor.
mircea_popescu: anyway. the way society works is that it's either
a crime to be poor ; or else ity's
a crime to be rich. alternatives do not exist, it's
a strict switch outside of the capacity of convention, like gravity : either motor force or splat.
mircea_popescu: PeterL he has
a peculiar notion of poor as "under the weather / skilled immigrant / etc"
mircea_popescu: why would poor people have
a job. that's the parole officer's problem.
davout: PeterL: yes, it's
a good point, i'll move my comment and keep an eye open to move those that ended up commenting the wrong post
PeterL: (but I claime
a very high number of dependents)
mircea_popescu: in particular " Me: He was convicted on fraud charges; not tax avoidance. The prosecution made the case that he knowingly offered false advice in exchange for customer’s money." is
a distinction without
a difference. writing "extempt" when "you shouldn't have" is exactly what "fraud" means in that context.
PeterL: how to make
a million dollars: sell
a million things for
a dollar or sell one thing for
a million dollars
mircea_popescu: considering the alternative is reading the logs, 200mn might not even be
a bad deal.
mircea_popescu: i can't see how ? prolly should put
a notice to bid in the right place ?
mircea_popescu: trinque> seems the voice model pairs with gossipd rather well, where voicing is
a matter of message forwarding rules << it doesn't even pair, it IS it. substance of the universe, not even protocol.
trinque: if one wanted
a #trilema on the thing, that would perhaps be
a matter of there being
a #trilema node distinguishing official vs heathen chatter by what it bothers to send along to other nodes?
trinque: seems the voice model pairs with gossipd rather well, where voicing is
a matter of message forwarding rules
trinque: right, my func is
a hook for the welcome message
phf: trinque: nah, your nick will autochange before the nickserv authentication. it's entirely broken, basically if you reg
a, and
a is already logged in, you get changed to
a` and nickserv goes "why you giving me password,
a` is not registered"
☟︎ phf: mircea_popescu: yeah, but then you have to write that logic into
a bot. i was hoping that using login/password just kicks the previous account off
phf: trinque: nope, there's no free lunch. irc force changes the nick, before there's
a chance to ghost
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform so how is this wonder of
a mod defined so it works on vectors ?
trinque: where I (think I'm) headed is the bot being
a separate module. code using the bot would pass the appropriate generic function to call for commands into make-bot
trinque: maybe we can collaborate on getting
a bot that, y'know, stays connected to an IRC channel
mircea_popescu: "and, in addition,
a call of
a Boolean logical operator and, or, xor, not whose operands are such static predicate expressions, and,
a static predicate expression in parentheses." << right there.
a xor maxint-1 > 0
mircea_popescu: "So we see that the predicate in the subtype Even cannot be
a static predicate because the operator mod is not permitted with the current instance. But mod could be used in an inner static expression."
mircea_popescu: wasn't by any means
a practical consideration. more of
a "thinking about the compiler of the wetware future"
mircea_popescu: i can't write sentences with
a count at the end saying how many times you have to read them until you get them.
mircea_popescu:
a more general and unrelated problem : why should the specific number of compiler passes be set down in the standard ?
mircea_popescu: seems altogether easier for you to not shit where you stand than for us to create
a new reality.
