ascii_butugychag: mircea_popescu: the funny part is that technically it does not require computer. i am free to attempt the project with
a pencil.
mircea_popescu: only gets one half at
a time of all things. depending on context, the one or the other half.
trinque: and "fuck you I wont work on this shit" passes for
a guy moving rectangles around in
a web browser.
☟︎ mircea_popescu: he works for something that requires computers but is not
a computerist thing! alf is that fabulous creature from ro folklore, "half man riding half
a limp rabbit"
ascii_butugychag: shoot yourself in the head every morning until you wake up as
a mircea_popescu ?
assbot: Logged on 18-01-2016 16:47:45; punkman: uppercase verbs for #b-
a RFC: MUST, MUST NOT, FUCK YOU
mircea_popescu: the choice between whipping up ten desktops in fixed positions and having you spend
a week dicking around with shittops should be obvious,
ben_vulpes: if chance, it's
a poor gamble. if it's
a promise, why can't they buy
a box for your haus?
mircea_popescu: ascii_butugychag can't you just mount
a proper computer somehwere and...uhh... ssh into it ? or i guess telnet lol.
ben_vulpes: ascii_butugychag: this is what you get for trying to do s33r1ous wurk! on
a portable
mircea_popescu: alf should star in
a modern married with children, "i work on computers for
a living"
ben_vulpes: lol mircea_popescu is using
a box with ready access to emacs 25?!
assbot: Logged on 18-01-2016 20:15:48; mircea_popescu: nah it'll end up like "true because there in principle can't exist
a system in which you could formulate
a contradiction".
mircea_popescu: "you don't buy
a car - you merely acquire the right to transport yourself according to the tos etc".
☟︎ ascii_butugychag: imagine if your car came with
a list of all possible streets it can make left turns into
☟︎ mircea_popescu: i wish to know what other definition for immaturity can be had, than
a subjective expectations of others to accommodate your feelings.
BingoBoingo: ascii_butugychag: Interested in doing
a rant for Qntra on the "code of conduct" phenomenon and poetteringization?
ascii_butugychag: i am only speaking of this here because it turns out to be
a PERFECT example of poetteringization
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo i recall the "currently only bitcoinica and blabla" expert opinions of years past. anyone old enough to remember shtylman, the genius-boy-expert with
a funny hat of 2013 ?
ascii_butugychag: flymake was very simple, it just ran your makefile, which was required to have
a check-syntax line in it (see, e.g., my block extractor program for example)
BingoBoingo: It's
a clear candidate for not Qntra as writing it would be for my personal development rather than reporting of Bitcoin news. Because deep intellectual failings presented by other outlets is not news in itself
ascii_butugychag: in other nyooz, HOLY SHIT is 'flycheck' (the supposed replacement, pushed everywhere one meets shithub types, for 'flymake')
a piece of shit !!
BingoBoingo: Hegelianism though refers to
a specific Anglophone phenomenon unrelated to actual Hegel
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: In the United States "Hegelianism" was for time
a derpy populist movement among the class that would birth Clitler. These are the people who would latch on to John Dewey.
mircea_popescu: there's
a delicious mockery of this, century+old. sadly, in romanian,
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: Perhaps historical hegel would. Hegel as used by derps that spz popular socialist conception of hegel can eat
a dick.
mircea_popescu: nah it'll end up like "true because there in principle can't exist
a system in which you could formulate
a contradiction".
☟︎ mircea_popescu just realised we're actually in danger of falling into
a unified theory of everything with all this, and nobody'll even understand it.
mircea_popescu: the saussure - derrirda debate prolly
a good starting point.
mircea_popescu: if i were
a sapper i'd have long ago moved on to relaxing by the maker's pool.
mircea_popescu: (indicative and dispositive are used here, ftr, as classical legal concepts. something's indicative if it contains or procures
a means to evaluate the truth of
a claim. something's dispositive if it is the means to resolve
a claim.)
mircea_popescu: (not in the sense that the post-structuralist blabla is even indicative, nor that the original structuralist view dispositive. but even in
a much more restrained, conservative view, the concept carries water.)
assbot: The Art of Lawrence Supino-Zaporozhian Cossacks of Ukraine Writing
a Mocking Letter in Reply to the Sultan of Turkey ... (

mircea_popescu: fun fact : # comes from
a quick scribble of lb, which comes from libra pondo
BingoBoingo: ngness, or in
a mood of vertiginous amazement at
a meaningless infinity."
BingoBoingo: view of the world which make infinity and continuity to be its sessence, and that pessimistic or optimistic attitudes pertain to the mere accidental subjectivity of the moment; finally, that the identification of contradictories, so far from being the self-developing process which Hegel supposes, is really
a self-consuming process, passing from the less to the more abstract, and terminating either in
a laugh at the ultimate nothi
BingoBoingo: Getting high never changes: "My conclusion is that the togetherness of things in
a common world, the law of sharing, of which I have said so much, may, when perceived, engender
a very powerful emotion; that Hegel was so unusually susceptible to this emotion throughout his life that its gratification became his supreme end, and made him tolerably unscrupulous as to means he employed; that indifferentism is the true outcome of every
mircea_popescu: i suppose blockheight with no almohadilla is
a better notation
danielpbarron: what good is
a pgp from God? He can phuctor all keys
BingoBoingo: America's chance of having
a philosophical tradition though died between 1910 and 1920 when James died, Dewey was lionized, and everyone treated James as fringe religious thinker and not rebuttal of the Hegelian.
mircea_popescu: ironically enough, nobody is such an enemy of black achievement as the political party using color as
a lever on the public treasury.
assbot: Logged on 18-01-2016 16:10:17; ascii_butugychag: has anyone
a position on whether patches oughta be broken into atoms ?
BingoBoingo: ascii_butugychag: It's build on
a generic thing forked and genericized from evangelical group refugees. Influenced heavily by William James. WHo would have though studying "Classic American Philosophy" would have been useful for understanding anything.
ascii_butugychag: danielpbarron: this is
a mega-point, and my original was to have
a wwwtronic thing where you could point to an individual place in timespace
ascii_butugychag: the 'talmudic' view (of which my summary is by no means an expert one) is that the margin notes are like
a map of
a mine field
BingoBoingo: Mebbe this really is more of
a jew project for pete_dushenski or another member of the tribe
assbot: Logged on 18-01-2016 15:59:27; ascii_butugychag: after
a certain point, there oughta be
a new genesis.
BingoBoingo: danielpbarron: But consider v or
a piece of v software like Bitcoind as
a bible analogue. What language describes things that go around
a bible.
BingoBoingo: danielpbarron:
A guide to bilical/religious terms useful for understanding software
danielpbarron: i don't get it; you want me to write
a bible or something?
ascii_butugychag: ty BingoBoingo. and i'm
a little surprised that nobody (not even pete_dushenski) mentioned talmud yet
BingoBoingo: danielpbarron: If v is used to handle
a canon, what sort of language accompanies things that surround
a canon
mircea_popescu: #b-
a can always be trusted to ferrer out crushingly impossible tasks for people more or less alligned with their interests.
BingoBoingo: ;;later tell danielpbarron Given your proclivities... perhaps you can do
a draft manifesto for using language to describe relations between v-ified software and the things that surround it.

BingoBoingo: <mircea_popescu> ... << technically the ml is
a soft fork on v chain ? :D << I think of it as more
a concordance for the v chain
mod6: <+mircea_popescu> mod6 you wanna write the [implementation] part and i bitch at you ? seems
a better approach than the reverse. << haha, ok. i probably wont get
a start on this until later tonight tho. hope that's alright.
assbot: Logged on 18-01-2016 16:08:48; jurov: mod6 if it can validate
a signature (by name, NOT by scanning all files), it will add to its v mirror
mircea_popescu: here's an idea : there's an enormous amount of crucial data coming from all arab speakers that muricans should sit on
a fucking pike from now on. because satan and such reasons.
mircea_popescu: it hasn't happened yet! there's
a pile of data about how people UNINVOLVED in bitcoin in ANY capacity want to "improve" it, preferabvly in such
a manner that their continued uninvolvement is less to their own detriment.
ascii_butugychag: on account of that schmuck at shmoocon who was peddling
a group-theoretical crypto algo, quasi-proprietary and patentalicious, that was more or less stolen verbatim from maslennikov's book...
☟︎ mircea_popescu: >I have
a long history of having
a keenly skeptical eye, I have solid critical thinking skills, and I bat away wacky theories all day long. I have NEVER, in any forum, posted any comment of any type in regards to bitcoin, this is my first one- I believe in speaking humbly, thinking deeply and acting bravely.
ascii_butugychag: my first and probably last encounter with
a mechanical proofatron that isn't immediately barfalicious in any way
mircea_popescu: one just has to correctly make the statement of their incorectness in
a proper formed T.
ascii_butugychag: mircea_popescu: what would such
a proof look like, do you suppose ?
BingoBoingo: loller "Hi Mike. ... If I was
a handler for an organization that wanted to insert an asset into the bitcoin community, someone like you would be the ideal candidate. Someone that young people, new to the community, naturally respect and will listen to. Strange how you've spent so much time cultivating your standing with people like that, while your reputation plummeted among the people that understood the network (and had far more
mircea_popescu: mod6 you wanna write the [implementation] part and i bitch at you ? seems
a better approach than the reverse.
