mircea_popescu: "I work for the United States Digital Service." oh ok.
mircea_popescu: so how is it misleading ? usg stole some money from lybia post invasion.
mircea_popescu: anyway ; back in 2013, pre-republic, when idiots with their hissy fits actually got people "teaching moments" ; compare and contrast with 2016, post republic, where francis rowe is about on par with roadkill for reputation.
mircea_popescu: shinohai note that the whole "talk privately" bullshit is VERY much how usgtardism spread. they know that openly pushing the koolaid will get them excruciated. but apparently esltards are VERY vulnerable to 1 on 1.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform not terribly far off. node.js is ~same crud by ~same people.
mircea_popescu: it's a miserable anchor for identity, this "ways we do things" ; and for that matter the sort of brain that doesn't take well to public discussion of technology is fundamentally broken in ways that should be addressed long before any technological involvement.

mircea_popescu: nse and it’s hard for them to learn in this state which is why a private consultation is more effective."
mircea_popescu: offering them benefit of the doubt. Often they aren’t being malicious they just don’t understand why something should be done a certain way. Why not teach them? Put yourself in their shoes and ask, “What do I know that this person doesn’t know, which would cause me to act like them in this situation if I didn’t know it.” That’s the very definition of empathy.

mircea_popescu: i dunno that the screen to insulate operator from "iron-that-might-emit-literally-anything-in-response-to-literally-anything" was ever baked. in nuclear physics or theoretical math.
mircea_popescu: well so far this matches screen, you can ctrl-alt-k iirc to pill it.
mircea_popescu: so you want a tmux that has all the ease of handling of screen / a screen that has all the scripting inclination of tmux + an ascii filter.

mircea_popescu: here's a lulz : all extant implementations of html have A FIXED SPAN BUFFER.
mircea_popescu: actually it seems to convert <font color=lightgray> into <span style="color: #000000;"> ; as none of the font tags are actually ever closed, it results in span overflow and death.
mircea_popescu: now why the fuck does the wp output <p> <br /> is anyone's guess.
mircea_popescu: ironically, i think the <p> <br /> style construction overwhelms some sort of secret buffer in "process html soup" render engine, resulting in the spwer seen in firefox/archive.is
mircea_popescu: so far also getting multiple DIFFERENT page renders on the same god damned basic html in various browswers

mircea_popescu: i thought that's what made the sad thing you used before
mircea_popescu: thestringpuller the definitions involved are at variance.
mircea_popescu: in other lulz : gcc 5 produces eulora binary that works normally ; gcc 6 produces eulora binary that inexplicably works at 0.5 to 1.5 fps.
mircea_popescu: that's the one fucking thing that never seems to be human nature.

mircea_popescu: !!rate kaustin -1 Really, scamming for five bux ? Get a job.
mircea_popescu: civil rights ? give me a fucking break, giving the average joe any rights is no different from dressing up a sow.
mircea_popescu: i don't think one can properly appreciate how broken "thought process" is in general population unless they do such. or try to teach. or try to tech support. or practice law. or so following.
mircea_popescu: in other news, this whole "noobs meet bitcoin, rsa and deedbot via eulora" thing is so very instructive.
mircea_popescu: (and in general - it is always and everywhere A LOT more work to be poor than to be rich. it's just idiots are REALLY dedicated to being stupid, much moreso than the other group.)
mircea_popescu: not so many 5k bills laying on ground, so 100k folks don't get this opportunity.
