mp_en_viaje: granted, my old style library i grew up with was two to three degrees of magnitude larger than 9mb ; but it sure as fuck took
a bunch of people way the fuck more than 15 hours to stitch it all together. and there's 60 seconds in
a minute, not 10, and there's 60 minutes in an hour, not ten. and so the fuck on.
mp_en_viaje: takes 13 seconds and
a working box to acquire
a library these days ; whole thing can be done while coffee brews.
mp_en_viaje: incidentally, this is both the traditional as well as
a quite effectual way of learning things.

a new box? here's
a buncha toothpicks and glue'
spyked: diana_coman, tbh I'm not sure, so I'm posing it as
a question. there's also prolly some merit to the idea of each bot having, optionally,
a logotron attached to it (since it's already listening...)
Mocky: no but working on my own team is pretty much
a cake walk so I'm branching out to helping other teams and meetngreeting across business units making myself generally well liked and enjoying new friends

PeterL: proof-reading welcom, I included

mircea_popescu: if, in the flow of that work, we discover something important enough that it requires
a change of direction significant enough to actually use
a new name, it's still improper to say the work put into finding the something was either lost or "not put into ultimate product".

a scripting language to turn whatever snippets of c into object code that we haven't yet thrown away ; and for quick prototyping, where one's stuck getting

'Monster,' 'terrorist,' 'evildoer,' public enemy number one - the media calls him, led by its disdain for all that is envigorating (and, on top of it all, foreign), and pushed by false information supplied by CIA... ...his very existence is

mp_en_viaje:
a forty-something galivanting about the world having girls strip naked in the middle of the mall to try on slutwear and kneeling in supermarkets is very unlike an eighty-something visiting new york in his tent.
BingoBoingo: Then there's the decades the Colonel had getting comfortable because the thought Europe wanted him to keep Africa in Africa. Maduro's always had the US beast bearing down on him, entire regime has had to be kept on
a war footing.
mp_en_viaje: very unexpected at mp central ; wouldnt have made the book this way in
a mn years.
a111: Logged on 2019-04-24 16:40 BingoBoingo: The old Pantsuitist Party the Colorados have
a nearly 90 year old former President running even in their polls with some young derp. Colorados don't ever break 15% in intention to vote.
mp_en_viaje: at which point the olteni are
a little taken aback, and one guy in the 2nd rank whispers in boss' ear
mp_en_viaje: "but do you understand there's more than
a billion chinese people living in peace bla bla bla ?"
mp_en_viaje: chinese folk spend
a while trying to figure out wtf happened, eventually manage to spot this Oltenia on german wehmacht maps from the 1800s.
mp_en_viaje: there's
a small ethnic group in sw romania, "olteni". one day they declare war to china.
mp_en_viaje: the whole "i just want to" item is just an artefact of this same problem ; examtaking is just
a manifestation of the same behaviour. the
principal-agent problem is the same damned thing. the brokenness of domestic arrangements in the us flow from the very simple "it
a111: Logged on 2017-06-30 18:04 asciilifeform: ecl is
a 'black art' incidentally. for instance, it runs 'backwards' voltagewise, with ground-as-positive, and needs negative supply
mp_en_viaje: possibly because for
a long time the optic modems slow.
mp_en_viaje: pump as you will. as
a factual matter, conncted gpu fucks your board like
a solid drinking habit fucks your slavegirl.
mp_en_viaje: even
a 30w one has terrible effect on mobo lifetime.
mp_en_viaje: anyway, to sum up this thread before it runs away from us : i expect that if you design your own gpu, and we compare it (through what, who knows, maybe by then phf comes up with
a magical differ that woerks on circuit designs) to the top of the range efficiency gpus (~100% of them nvidia products, tho not 100% of the nvidia products) you'll discover they're very similar.
mp_en_viaje: but the thing i interpreted that "tumour mass" you talked about to mean was this specific pattern,
a sorta circular bundle.
mp_en_viaje: (note, i'm not even remotely saying 100% hand-made. but they had ~something~, that afaik was never found. and it sure as fuck wasn't just
a software layer on whatever off the shelf verilogizer.
mp_en_viaje: not so hard to decap
a 1070 or w/e and looksee.
mp_en_viaje: and admittedly nvidia also had some shittier chips in this vein. but they also had
a skunkworks core that did something that i dunno what it is.
mp_en_viaje: asciilifeform, nah, listen to me, there's
a lot of ways to prove this, including the massive gap in efficiency between the competition and nvidia's chips
a111: Logged on 2019-04-17 19:49 asciilifeform: asic is
a high enuff risk biz that the people who do it, are conservative to the point of 'if this exact thing hasn't been done before, fughetaboutit'
mp_en_viaje: and what i'm saying is that any meaningful gpu will be very similar to extant items. i do not expect there is ~any meaningful overlap, from
a purely graphical pov, between extant cpu and sane cpu.
mp_en_viaje: asciilifeform, not necessarily
a matter in those practical terms.
a bike / ride-on lawnmower "suffices" as automobile, but it is still ~ridiculous~, specifically by the very poor fit of design to usage.
BingoBoingo: Talvi has
a campaign office
a block and
a half away. The campaign office is topped by
a billboard selling Luis
BingoBoingo: Then there's about 20-40 fringe candidates spread across the major parties, their subdivisions, and the "why are they trying to compete on
a national scale" parties

a nearly 90 year old former President running even in their polls with some young derp. Colorados don't ever break 15% in intention to vote.

a111: Logged on 2019-04-23 23:12 asciilifeform: imho the so-called 'civilized' world ought to have to answer re why it failed to produce
a product like this.
mp_en_viaje: the ~exact same process~ through which an acceptable republican artefact is constructed is the ~exact same process~ through which
a mind grows into republican form. the way you convince us to use your proggy is the way 15yo learns how to write
a proggy we'll use. and so fucking on forever.
mp_en_viaje: but it is doubtless worth commenting upon how design-with-
a-view-to-wot automatically resolves the "work/education '''disparity'''". ie, they "become" the same exact fucking thing that they were all along.
a111: Logged on 2019-04-23 23:06 asciilifeform would luvvv to read 'ffa-style' incarnation of such
a work, where the chip is 'built up' from empty space in ~hour-long chunks. but prolly this won't exist until asciilifeform writes 1..

mp_en_viaje: asciilifeform, or as buffett put it back in the day his brain still worked, "when
a manager with
a reputation for success attempts to tackle
a problem with
a reputation for intractability, it is the manager's reputation that ends up tarnished"
mp_en_viaje: the "let there be
a javascript interpreter for c, call it tcc or w/e, people can play with if theyr'e bored" is really the outmost of concession i can make to what is, ultimately,
a shameful, abortive and utterly reprehensible outgrowth on human culture = the totality of everyone involved in computer systems design and implementatio nfor the past few decades.
mp_en_viaje: thus therefore, i do not see the need to continue supporting c as
a mental construct. even having to reimplement "everything" (ie, practically, nothing at all) from outside is preferable to an attempt at continuing c.
mp_en_viaje: if i make someone work with c, it's perceived as
a punishment.
mp_en_viaje: asciilifeform, in general, i do not see there's any need for having
a musl gcc in the first place.

☝︎☟︎ mp_en_viaje: the whole point is to turn c into what it actually is --
a sort of javascript the niggers to rakim'd in the head to use computers keep pissing out.
