fluffypony: decimation: I don't get what's lol about that, .NET faces the same issue (as have many high-level abstractions / languages), whereby trying to force GC collections or modify GC behaviour invariably ends up being messy. Frankly, handing off to a reference counting system is way, way better than GC bullshit.
decimation: yeah I have read. what I don't understand is why anyone would think that the compiler is the weak link in the C software stack
nubbins`: but y'know what? i don't have to lie in bed every morning wondering whether i'll call in sick
nubbins`: i don't /really/ think i need to tell you guys that tears are a necessary ingredient to un-fucking your situations
asciilifeform: so far i don't disagree - the problem i described could indeed be magicked away entirely and semi-permanently by judicious application of ~100k usd
mircea_popescu: sadly i don't see too well inside teh golden crescent. no real interest for me there.
mats: as i understand it, they don't want to wade into shia sunni violence and catch some political fallout in the process
BingoBoingo: <mats> i don't believe the kurds will actually fight inside mosul << There's a time and place the Kurds will fight, but first the need to go through the motions of leveraging all of the phree stuff they can from Obola
mircea_popescu: i don't see it either.
mats: i don't believe the kurds will actually fight inside mosul
cazalla: i don't know if i could hit him in the fashion my own father hit me
cazalla: which makes me contemplate.. mp and physical discipline.. i couldn't imagine hitting my kid.. yet, if my own father didnt flog me with jugcord and leave countless bruises.. i don't think i'd be here today
cazalla: with the weight of others clingingin to it unware i'm trying to carry them so that they don't fucking starve
cazalla: i don't blame em, for a young australian, there is fucking nothing unless you are prepared to work 40 years in a make work job to pay off an inflated piece of shit block with no back yard 2 bedroom pos
cazalla: i don't think you can even buy a home in the shittest areas of australia at the price RENT is paying for homes
cazalla: fwiw, use to run 10km a day, so not like i don't know what it takes to be comitted rocky balboa righter champion of the world beat anyone in a tussel
cazalla: i don't even buy new clothes in like 2-3 years
cazalla: but i don't have nice things anyway
cazalla: Adlai, i don't think shrem is in the lock up yet anyway
ascii_field: fortunately i don't need it for anything
cazalla: jurov, and i don't mean your use of it as a metaphor but the thing itself has me interested
ascii_field: ^ did i miss any other folks who live on atomic dirigibles and don't 'depend on paycheck'
NewLiberty: I don't imagine that they are alone in that effort.
danielpbarron: i don't get who would actually type in his password at gunpoint -- or, yet another reason to not do bitcoin from a smart phone
thestringpuller: i don't see how this point is irrelevant due to cannabis being a physical good and bitcoin being a digital good
mircea_popescu: i also don't see how email will ever get enough interest if the only problem it solves ios "we'll save you the 9.95 a plastic maibox costs"
mike_c: mircea_popescu: not teleology, I just don't see how a poker site gets enough traffic if the only problem it solves is "we'll host your weekly poker game".
danielpbarron: i don't see how it's any ddifferent; i wish i could play online with my weekly poker buddies
mike_c: i don't know that wot solves it all. so we start neg-rating on suspicion of bot use?
danielpbarron: dignork, i don't see what the problem is with a bot that doesn't collude
ben_vulpes: i don't trust it
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform then they wonder why they have to pay people immense sums to keep secrets that still don't, and i don't have to pay them anything other than "yeah, yeah, i'll stick it to those dudes".
asciilifeform: because i didn't. and i don't believe a word out of the usg shills that is south kr.
decimation: "I can be a slut - it's okay as long as I don't fuck a nazi!"
ben_vulpes: i don't think you've seen beer prices around here lately.
ben_vulpes: i don't even drink beer anymore
mircea_popescu: PeterL: so I'm looking at houses near some of the jobs I'm applying for, I know I really don't want to live inside Detroit, but 15k for a 4br/2ba house seems tempting << it's the end of days i tell you, idiots here think 2br/1ba apts are 150k
danielpbarron: i don't know how to use computers because i'm actually good at it; it's a matter of necessity
thestringpuller: mircea_popescu: http://qntra.net/2015/02/vermont-bitcoin-atm-cease-and-desist-requested/#comment-10900 << I don't think that will work. Cause you are exchanging government scrip for Bitcoin so it involves transfer of that...
PeterL: so I'm looking at houses near some of the jobs I'm applying for, I know I really don't want to live inside Detroit, but 15k for a 4br/2ba house seems tempting
pete_dushenski: which i why i read burke and don't bleed when i shit
danielpbarron: ben_vulpes, i don't recall that; could you cite chapter/verse?
NewLiberty: I give the benefit of the doubt, most don't control where they are born
mike_c: jurov: yeah, the ones i am looking at don't require that. eurodns is offering them for sale, I have just never heard of them.
cazalla: in my experience anyway, i don't doubt that some guys killed with it
punkman: although I don't see how it's worth Lenovo's time
danielpbarron: i don't buy that at all; if your kid has the stupid thing then he should be safe
danielpbarron: fwiw i probably have all the vaccines you guys are harping about; my parents don't share my views in this regard
BingoBoingo: <danielpbarron> because of the uncomfortably high chance of acute brain infection leading to permanent damage << Why I don't get measles chickenpox comparisons "But they both itch"
ben_vulpes: i don't get it, nor do i want to.
asciilifeform: if you don't have your $185k, you can't vote, because you are literally a bum << i've never seen, felt, smelled, 185k and don't expect to live to
asciilifeform: i don't get this.
trinque: that question is effectively "please sell yourself short so I don't have to"
PeterL: a couple jobs ago, when I interviewed the guy grabbed a random coworker and asked "don't you like working here", they were like "ummmmmmm, sure?" that should have been a sign, but I took job anyway
pete_dushenski: and alan "not a us agent" silbert is already pleading ignorance: "I don't recall- has the market ever gone down AFTER these auctions occur? B/c I don't think anybody buying at auction would dump them on mkt"
mircea_popescu: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=18-02-2015#1023516 << i don't uinderstand... why making a statementy and signing it with the key in question is no good ? ☝︎
thestringpuller: nubbins`: MP is more trusted than all random forum muppets and Gavin combined. Like parent to child, "I don't have to explain myself to you."
nubbins`: "The thing is, I don't think there will ever be mass adoption of the system as it exist today. The 'average Joe' will be using some payment processor and not the blockchain directly. So the blockchain will have transactions from payment processors and early adopters/enthusiasts. The rest will be in closed systems and/or side chains that can solve a lot of the volume issues."
thestringpuller: ben_vulpes: My keys are airgapped, as in I am physically separated from access cause I don't have something secure to shuttle them en-mobile. I.e. cardano....
danielpbarron: i don't know much about systemd except that it's hated in here, and in "top" *everything* is a subprocess of it..
ben_vulpes: don't listen to me, i failed to sleep last night.
brendafdez: I was wondering if the Wordpress pingback DDoS is still an issue, or was it fixed in more recent versions? I'm running 4.1 and my xmlrpc.php (http://pastebin.com/6s78Hh5c) doesn't even have a reference to $linea. I don't speal PHP at all, so I'm not sure if I should still paste the replecement code somewhere.
decimation: I don't see how one could 'shrink' a fab into anything smaller than it is (as it currently exists)
asciilifeform: mike_c: i don't -want- aws
mike_c: yes, i know. but i don't think you're disagreeing that colo will have lower reliability?
mircea_popescu: (i don't care either way, each works, but i was lulz'd at your militant stance)
mircea_popescu: lobbes nah. io should stop spamming. Xuthus i don't actually code worth a shit.
ben_vulpes: mircea_popescu: what, you think i don't get this?
Vexual: I think if brussexels had a look at northern Australian, they would say 'don't bother'
BingoBoingo: I don't recall. I'm still deep in the libations that are getting me over the meat odometer rollover.
decimation: eh, I don't see how the tech is getting cheaper either
BingoBoingo: I don't understand either. XFCE straddles the line of minimum/maximum desktop I can tolerate given my small screen size and clumsy fingers keeping me off of leaner solution.
decimation: I don't get the general preference for gnome over kde
asciilifeform: BingoBoingo: unless you know something i don't, they're $maxint years out
mircea_popescu: i still don't see the wisdom of allowing diddling of firmware via data bus.
PeterL: no pete_dushenski, I still don't know why yours are failing
PeterL: I am still on 10.5, I don't know anything about the new versions
thestringpuller: so you don't like plants? I knew you were a 100% carnivore.
mircea_popescu: i don't really think "2nd wave" feminism was ever important enough to engender noticeable reaction.
PeterL: I just don't understand how the world works?
danielpbarron: "I remember a time when those barely visible bumps around August 2012 and February 2013 filled the whole screen with their rollercoaster-y appearance. I remember that time because I was there and saw it, but to anyone looking today they don't matter and could as well have never existed. This will happen again, in the future."
danielpbarron: (i assume by TBF you don't mean the real one -> http://thebitcoin.foundation/ )
mircea_popescu: i don't think you actually understand how the world works.
thestringpuller: http://www.mtv.com/news/2069307/old-man-bald-haircut-bad-kids-children/ << i don't know why I think this is so funny.
punkman: ben_vulpes: I don't get it
mircea_popescu: then again, i don't see any of the "Global Warming ? opps!" "QE ? oops!" etc posts from the libertards, so i guess a slightly cleaner toad is still the prettier princess.
mircea_popescu: i don't think google actually honors those.
thestringpuller: mircea_popescu: THEN ruin them utterly, so that everyone involved still, to this day, can't get work like Strateman. << MagicalTux falls in this category. I don't think any of the DERP lists have management with WoT identities.
thestringpuller: I wonder what discoveries you've made we don't know about <.<;;
mircea_popescu: "I'm an 18 year old currently in my first semester of college at UNM (Studying medicine). All my life I've been a very good girl, pro-feminist all my life, I was in the girl scouts growing up, I got straight As, I don't drink or go out to parties. I found your tumblr the other week and at first I was offended, I don't see how any woman would subject herself to such treatment. I've visited your page multiple times since
asciilifeform: 'i don't care if they're stoking up the ovens, they'll go in'
decimation: apparently in new york the situation is a little more harsh: "In New York, people have given up on equity. I hear this time and again in the NYC tech scene - building a company is hard in NYC because people don't believe equity is worth anything because of the bullshit that happened in the first bubble. In New York especially, there were a lot of shenanigans with equity in 99/00 bubble/crash era where companies got sold and employees
punkman: I don't want it to fix things, that's nonsense
asciilifeform: it's one of those few interfacing problems that i don't really think is suited to a textual abstraction << depends on what is being drawn. see 'openscad' etc.
ben_vulpes: it's one of those few interfacing problems that i don't really think is suited to a textual abstraction.
ben_vulpes: well, i don't know.
decimation: nah I don't think I can write good.
thestringpuller: i don't think it will if its running 0.9.8 ssl
benjamindees: I've read everything you linked so far. It seems mostly sarcastic, which I don't really follow since I don't read your logs anyways.
Adlai: benjamindees: wait, let's back up a bit, if not for your then my sake. what's the point of sidechains? i don't think it's "paying for bitcoin mining"
