cazalla_: mircea_popescui don't drink shit these days, i've had a bottle of port tonight, but this is a first for months
mircea_popescu: if this doesn't prove that it is practically impossible to govern stupid people, i have no idea what would.
cazalla_: i dunno what day and age, can't be much worse than the current year
cazalla_: meh, i am just angry as i let my guard down the other day and mentioned to someone that considering suicide is a logical and rational thought in this day and age
ben_vulpes: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=18-02-2016#1408995 http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=18-02-2016#1409002 << omfg am i really the only one who saw this? ☝︎☝︎
ben_vulpes: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=18-02-2016#1408981 << why precisely do you think i've been making such a stink about vtrons lately?! ☝︎
ben_vulpes: http://dpaste.com/31SYN3T.txt << i love these devil-may-care statements
danielpbarron: well i'll probably unrate in a year next time i'm cleaning names out, unless she comes back in the interim
kuzetsa: that's not a thing I believe in
kuzetsa: Genesis 19:26 ~~ But Lot's wife looked back. When she did, she became a pillar made out of salt. <<< like I said, inconsiderate, I can't hardly undersatand the idea of natural disaster being an act of god, and for something as innocent as looking over your shoulder to be cause for death is p much overkill no matter who you are (deity or otherwise)
danielpbarron: Exodus 33:13 Now therefore, I pray, if I have found grace in Your sight, show me now Your way, that I may know You and that I may find grace in Your sight. And consider that this nation is Your people."
danielpbarron: Deuteronomy 32:39 'Now see that I, even I, am He, And there is no God besides Me; I kill and I make alive; I wound and I heal; Nor is there any who can deliver from My hand.
kuzetsa: I don't personally believe gods to be that jerk-ish
kuzetsa: "always carry a shovel and be sure to use it to bury your poo so god doesn't step in it" <<< any translation you want is fine, that's my own paraphrase (I compared several translations for this particular passage, and the meaning is always the same)
kuzetsa: Deuteronomy 23:14-15 ~~ always carry a shovel and be sure to use it to bury your poo so god doesn't step in it ... if taken literally, I'm thinking at best the understanding of germ theory wasn't going to be around for over a thousand years so the beliefs were genuinely held, though not literal
danielpbarron: yeah and I'm the only one in here that believes the entire Bible
danielpbarron: well I knew who he was too, but I guess that's because I'm in close proximity to Vermont
kuzetsa: danielpbarron: one of the main reasons I didn't seek to figure out why I could no longer !up is because I'm legitimately a left-wing democratic socialist and knew who bernie sanders was before he announced the POTUS run
kuzetsa: well you highlighted me several times, and even though the content wasn't anything I immediately understood and related to, the friendly tone seemed welcoming and I appreciate that -- the impression stuck, if nothing else :D
adlai: i'm just throwing links around and hoping something will stick.
adlai: kuzetsa: ahh, i don't have a point.
danielpbarron: oh wait, who runs double-hash-bitcoin ? I assume this is different from the one gmaxwell or whoever banned me from
assbot: Logged on 29-08-2015 14:22:28; asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: every sysadmin loves vi and nano, even. but programming in common lisp in an editor which doesn't automatch parens and autoindent is an example of something i might do in hell
phf: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com//?date=29-08-2015#1255346 << not sure if you noticed that 4.4bsd vi had lisp mode (and nothing else language wise). man page claims that some indent commands would actually do proper lisp indentation. sometimes i'd like to track it down and see what exactly the had there.. ☝︎
kuzetsa: adlai: I don't disagree, but I don't understand your point either -- idioms aren't my thing :(
kuzetsa: in ##bitcoin the best conversation I recall lately ... nothing memorable actually
kuzetsa: danielpbarron: lurking in the mostly -- more conversations happen in ##bitcoin in my case because I prefer not to have non-otc / non-trading talks in -otc
kuzetsa: adlai: well I read that (skimmed) and couldn't glean any useful heuristic or philisophical insight
kuzetsa: I just stopped in 'cause danielpbarron noticed I hadn't been around and took the time to figure out what happened
kuzetsa: I'm content to remain ignorant
kuzetsa: I don't know what a darc is, and parenths don't bother me either way
assbot: Logged on 17-02-2016 21:07:31; asciilifeform: hey i specialize in uselessly predicting crapocalypses years before they happen.
kuzetsa: and then do :q to get out after you're done looking at whatever that's the only command I ever bothered to learn
assbot: Logged on 29-08-2015 14:22:28; asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: every sysadmin loves vi and nano, even. but programming in common lisp in an editor which doesn't automatch parens and autoindent is an example of something i might do in hell
kuzetsa: in the vi/emacs debate, I'm in the nano/scintilla camp being clueless about the substance of the argument
kuzetsa: oh ok yeah I don't use emacs so I don't know wht alist / plist / elist is
danielpbarron: i updates once a day
kuzetsa: I blame you so hard
danielpbarron: yes I admitted this already
kuzetsa: well yeah, but I think maybe originally I was only able to self-up because of nanotube having uprated me
kuzetsa: <an op or two who uprated me> ~ specifically I mean #bitcoin-otc and #bitcoin ones... at some point I think people in here had a falling out with them
kuzetsa: it wasn't anything I personally did or caused
kuzetsa: and I think maybe an op or two who uprated me ended up neg-rated by enough people who were 1-degree coupled to assbot or ... IDK really
phf: there are parts by the waterfront where on weekends you can see an assortment of underclasses and weirdos. mexicans fishing, blacks riding dirt bikes, white trash drinking. kind of cool, i'll take that anytime over the overdeveloped DC ☟︎
phf: i agree though, i like that philly is a no mans land, since there's no developers or Control or particularly strong presence of usg.
pete_dushenski: phf: trust me when i saw that it's even worse when the arivistes come rampaging through town in a flurry of nownownow-ism and tear the whole lot down right before your eyes.
pete_dushenski: of the dozen or two us cities i've visited in the last decade, i couldn't agree more.
phf: i think philadelphia as a whole is a particularly painful monument to america's past. ☟︎
phf: i used to live couple of blocks away from frank furness library at upenn
pete_dushenski: which, at this point, have exactly the same demo, so i can see it
BingoBoingo: pete_dushenski: I just though since you were in the big city you had that kind with the hobopiss
pete_dushenski: you remember the season ? i can add it to the list of shows i pretend that i'll watch one day
pete_dushenski: i also can't stand the texture of mashed potatoes, which doesn't seem to be derived from scum-sucking bottom-feeders, so i probably shouldn't blame the good book too much
pete_dushenski: though i do blame kashrut (at least partly) for turning me off shellfish quite entirely. though i suspect that most of it is the unsavoury texture of the shit.
BingoBoingo: I mean when the choice is polish ovens or not chosen...
BingoBoingo: I dunno, member of the tribe seem to have a poor track record when it comes to getting chosen for things by other groups
BingoBoingo: I don't keep track of that stuff
pete_dushenski: mircea_popescu: i call photochop on that last tumblr
pete_dushenski: just because you're not a ~billionaire~ with x-ray vision, i forgot to mention that part. and if you tell me that you're also a billionaire, that's ok too because there are more parts i haven't mentioned yet!'
assbot: Logged on 17-02-2016 16:20:50; mircea_popescu: i shall now be quiet while alf, who has never set foot in california, proceeds to explain to people who live there how the place is.
pete_dushenski: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=17-02-2016#1408407 << you don't understand dirigible fantasies. it's like every comic book fan's overactive imagination telling him that 'if i only has x-ray vision i'd get so much pussy'. and then mousy radiologist (as they tend to be, in my experience), asks comicfan 'have you ever seen something with x-ray vision ? i'm not quite sure it's how you imagine.' 'nonsense, that's ☝︎
pete_dushenski: i'd almost bet against alphago just on his word alone.
pete_dushenski: that guy, despite apparently not having much of a stomach for money or finance, is a pretty respectable little investor, i'll give him that
pete_dushenski: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=17-02-2016#1408301 << brush off one ddos and 'to the moon' ? did i miss a meta-qntra memo here or what ☝︎
pete_dushenski: obviously, this afternoon, and the fact that i'd be nutso to enter into a 20-year contract with a non-entity is why i will under no circumstances, and quite to the contrary of 'every is doing it' advice from the whole peanut gallery of well-meaning busy bodies, be starting an 'resp' account (registered educational savings plan) for my kid(s). if they want to go to law or something, i'll pony up, but if i sure as
assbot: Logged on 17-02-2016 15:25:47; mircea_popescu: but, fortunately for it, the us has nothing to offer. it'd be an active safari grounds for live slaves, if the women weren't generally ugly and universally fat. it is being raided to shit by indian/chinese people for whatever shreds of prestige it may have left, tho from what i hear us diplomas are becoming 2nd rate in beijing these days.
pete_dushenski: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=17-02-2016#1408267 << /me can't believe how much worse this exact phenomenon has become in just the last decade. i was in the new engineering 'innovation centre' on campus today (mostly materials engineering) and every single last motherfucking dude was straight off the boat from india or china. i don't think there are two white dudes per floor at this point. ☝︎
adlai: trinque: you should collect the deedynickles, i haven't swept in a while
adlai: and i feel really bad that it's not working yet. thus, i go back to my 'uranium mine'
asciilifeform: i don't think my cpu thermistor even is at 42c on most days!111
adlai: so i 'promised' a dude a blockchain spamatron, and he gave me 3btc after insisting that we not sign anything, not even a gpg contract
adlai never jokes: http://i.imgur.com/BJHVP9i.png
asciilifeform: i am not in the habit of prodding people, but can't help but prod adlai. it is almost as if he were put upon the earth by the gods themselves just to add to shiva.scm.
adlai: well, i'm overbullshitting my familiarity with build systems... but the fact that i can run make doesn't mean i'm benefitting from any of the Vification.
adlai: shiva is an A1 tease but i still need to build the damn thing!
adlai: asciilifeform: patches are a ways aways. i'm still figuring out this whole C++ mess... last time i dealt with these shits i had MSVC+CLR to back me up, never touched the keyboard. click click click.
adlai: who says i hain't?
asciilifeform: adlai: when i wrote shiva, i very much expected adlai in particular to pick it up
trinque: I shall back up the wallet for dissection and rescan, I suppose
adlai: so i'd actually say it's a move in the right direction, regardless of the authors's's position
BingoBoingo: K, the bitbet affliate link thing probably has a place, but likely as part of a larger monetization effort when that time comes. I'm uncertain on this matter at this moment.
adlai: but at least i lose to better people on this one
asciilifeform: adlai: i normally play on igs
BingoBoingo: I gotta catch up on logs

ben_vulpes: today i cover staff desks in black post it notes with pentagrams drawn on them

jurov: "I see this as a best proof point for Microsoft showing that Windows 10 is certainly more secure than its predecessor and stable enough to be rolled out to millions of people," said Pat Moorhead, analyst at Moor Insights & Strategy.
trinque: I'm happy to be human search while there isn't one
mircea_popescu: you know i just searched the page source for deedbot.org, deedbot.org/bundle-393434.txt not in there
