pete_dushenski: "Not only can it not be trained, not even to the modest degree bravery and valor could be trained into the knight, but it exhibits
a very active antieconomy of scale!" << applies to 'art of forgetting rubbish' just as well.
BingoBoingo: pete_dushenski: Maybe you should try building
a non-Euclidian memory palace
pete_dushenski: BingoBoingo: looks like i was indeed off my
a single letter on that fb piece.
BingoBoingo: ;;later tell pete_dushenski no mention of how Vox.com forbid him from owning Bitcoins in the lulzfest where Ezra Klein backtracked on his promises to Lee and Lee just took it like
a bitch?
ascii_butugychag: this is trivial for, e.g., otp, but - i suspect provably -
a no-go for anything else, esp. anything asymmetric.
mod6: <+ascii_butugychag> mod6: i actually re-sent
a correct one last night, it vanished. << oh the entire message was snarfed?
mircea_popescu: <jurov> not impossible, if you change the clearsigned text, it's ok << put
a tab instead of space somewhere :D
thestringpuller: bitsko: This brand of Mircea type misanthropy and elitism is pretty funky, luckily the garbage is hot enough that most people keep it in
a pile downwind usually.
thestringpuller: coinoperated-rob: MP is
a major handicap for Bitcoin. He's like unremovable training wheels, necessary early on, but now they just get in the way and make it look ridiculous
ascii_butugychag: the only vpatches that have any business exceeding
a few dozen kB are genesis loads
assbot: Logged on 28-01-2016 13:43:29; mircea_popescu: the trend is definitely unamerican, in fact it may well have been what produced despondent turds
a la orwell and overall sunk the british empire, too.

assbot: Logged on 28-01-2016 15:16:15; mod6: asciilifeform: when you get
a chance tonight or whatever, try to send through
a correctly named sig for: 'asciilifeform-programmable-versionstring.vpatch' plz
mod6: i think it will, as long as I can get it tested. i haven't played with that one at all, other than compiling and running with it -- gives
a version of 99999 by default.
mod6: asciilifeform: when you get
a chance tonight or whatever, try to send through
a correctly named sig for: 'asciilifeform-programmable-versionstring.vpatch' plz
☟︎ jurov: or was there
a recent case the names in email are different from archives?
mircea_popescu: the trend is definitely unamerican, in fact it may well have been what produced despondent turds
a la orwell and overall sunk the british empire, too.
☟︎ mircea_popescu: asciilifeform dude predicted NOTHING to date. not
a single thing. the shit he "predicts" is generally 3rd hand restatement of stuff first restated in the 70s.
mircea_popescu: it's
a combination of multisecular trends. one is
a hate of plastics, that has been brewing for at least five decades. the other is
a hate of self, that;s been brewing since ww2, and that expresses itself variously, but for instance in current "carbon"-ecology.
☟︎ mircea_popescu: asciilifeform actually the problem is consumption fell off
a cliff.
mircea_popescu: you want to take possession of
a billion or so barrels, amoco is more than happy to cool you off, get in touch.
mircea_popescu: anyway, his discussion of oil is pretty much afield. for one thing, inventories are way the fuck up (tho i don't expect he has an inkling of
a clue as to how to look it up, and besides - so much easier to pronounce stupid shit), and deliveries are actually stalled by the buyers!
mircea_popescu: really should be taught in highschool. "Objectivism -
a class on how to object. It's mandatory unless you figure out how to get yourself out of it."
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform there's
a difference between this and that.
mircea_popescu: only someone who has never sailed in his life would describe that abomination as
a boat.
mircea_popescu: so hu the manatee says : in chinese pigdin, english vocabulary is used to cover chinese grammar. consequently she the cow of
a pig, ie
a sow, had kittens ie young ones ie pigglets.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform there's
a fucking reason "basic money" appears to basic kids. that's why they basically have parents!
mircea_popescu: (ftr, for they innocent of history - the entire cromwell debacle originally started with disputes over whether charles can or can't ask for
a few measly thousand pounds in tax)
mircea_popescu: what, does anyone know or does anyone not know that they're currently not getting anything even remotely like
a college education, for more money than charles tried to raise but got instead
a civil war ?
polarbeard: I'm
a 'basic income' supporter, the earlier the govs default the better
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform they do not WISH for there to be
a hierarchy.
danielpbarron: >> This is
a strange label when you consider than all personal computers << consider *that ?
pete_dushenski: 's nothing quite like
a hoffnung berlin belt and i can't delay ~all~ gratification forever.
pete_dushenski: speaking of germany, i was actually just looking at this leather belt i bought in berlin last time (ok, the only time) i was there, found myself admiring it (it's defo my fave), noticed that the shop's url was stamped on the inside of the belt, realised that i actually need
a new black leather belt, and so ordered one from the same shop... only to be assraped by the woeful cad-eur and shipping costs. alas, there
pete_dushenski: klm has direct yeg-ams flights now. so. cool. and
a big loss for air canada. (and even iceland air, who recently opened up routes to europe through rjekjavik instead of toronto or london, which was
a big deal until this new klm route stole its thunder)
pete_dushenski: "no one could've predicted 100x inflation after we gave everyone
a million free sign-up miles and
a million more every time they filled up with gas!"
pete_dushenski: in related currency news, i'm thinking that
a stop in poland (after
a stop in amsterdam) is
a more cost-effective european destination than germany this summer. fuck this cad-eur rate, i'll take the eur-pln even if it means
a plane instead of
a train.
BingoBoingo: It's jsut

mod6: and again, i have no way of telling if they were named correctly in the first place or it was the ML. but... its certainly something that should be in
a log file or something, you may wanna have
a look.
mod6: mircea_popescu: yah, im more inclined to just wait until
a new sig, properly named is sent.
jurov: i'm fully aware it's infuriating but i don't see
a way how to prevent repeated posting of stuff that changes only by unsigned data (like, attachment names)
mod6: well, we've got
a well-named sig for malleus
mod6: thought it was just
a oversight or something.
assbot: Logged on 27-01-2016 20:23:36; mircea_popescu: ascii_butugychag put
a pic up ?
mod6: i have fixed it in my forthcoming v99996, and this shouldn't be
a problem any more.
mod6: so yes, if I drop those into my patches dir with
a full sync with V [v99997] it does indeed break my seal validation.
mod6: I just noticed this now. And the sig verifies just fine, but yah. mis-named in the email so that threw me off
a bit.
mod6: here we got,
a few thins
BingoBoingo: Lots of things are dangerous.
A value underflow bug in
a polar bear routing daemon though would be dangerous in the awesome way.
BingoBoingo:
a daemon for routing polar bears would be far more useful
BingoBoingo: But its history shows that it is good for amplifying the effect of
a defensive force in battle. Santa Anna might not have tried taking it if he had to pay out life insurance...
BingoBoingo: trinque: I'll take that comment back if you can get together
a freedom loving militia to liberate the Alamo. I'll need something to write about after Obola goes Janet Reno mass murder in Oregon Waco style.
BingoBoingo: pete_dushenski: Well there's
a lot of NFL/College back and forth on all coaching positions. In the lower levels of the coaching heirarchy high school coaches often make it in.
BingoBoingo: pete_dushenski: Phys ed egalitarianism though backstops
a tournament market. Not every PE teacher/coach can be Nick Saban, but they all want to be.
pete_dushenski: "…teacher pay in the United States seems more like something from Soviet-era Russia than 21st century America. Wages for teachers are low, egalitarian and not based on performance. We pay phys ed teachers about the same as math teachers despite the fact that math teachers have greater opportunities elsewhere in the economy. As
a result, we have lots of excellent phys ed teachers but not nearly enough excellent math
