asciilifeform: selling minerals is exactly same 'lottery winner's disease', this was known long ago
mp_en_viaje: so you know, how did whore "lose a trillion" ?
mp_en_viaje: russia, saudi arabia, or a random streetwalker are in the same position : the cunt they sell has little relation to the money people make in an economy they're no tpart of.
asciilifeform: nao i gotta see this
mp_en_viaje: ben_vulpes, it is to me unclear how orcistan (mineral producerI could be said to have realised losses.
mp_en_viaje: you understand bogota is 2x the size of ny ? you've not seen traffic jams this good in ny. not since.... well never, back when it still mattered they didn't have the cars.
ben_vulpes: likely a large factor in this "corruption" witchhunt even "omfg blew trillions trying to put the us shale market out of biz, need to recoup from somewhere"
mp_en_viaje: eh bs. there's 300mn usians not going anywhere and 2bn orcs going around in circles
shinohai: for me it worked on premise that "private messages" were always gpg encrypted
asciilifeform: the americans indeed have the cars; they sit parked on the street; but lacking work to commute to, they dun eat petrol so much. hence orlol's 'destruction' observation.
ben_vulpes: yup, they blinked
mp_en_viaje: ben_vulpes, yeah, the saudi genius dood's plan worked as wel las if nuland made it.
asciilifeform: i'm unequipped to comment, because i do not consider the sources accessible to me on www, to be anything other than disinfo; and having no line to petroseekritz meself, leaves ~0 ; so cannot add to this.
shinohai: yeah thats a point mp_en_viaje
mp_en_viaje: you should see fucking $200 a month clombia. it is SO BAD they have two colors of plates, and yellow (normal people) can only go every other day
ben_vulpes: also US shale producers "walking and chewing gum" at the same time; many squeezed operations down into productivity despite opec production increase and still managed to borrow and open up more reserves
mp_en_viaje: asciilifeform, wtf demand for oil is supposed to be destructed ? more cars on road than ever in history.
mp_en_viaje: i suspect everyone's waiting for that global warming to melt the rich north. canada, russia, there's where to find
mp_en_viaje: eh gtfo, smallest test drill bugdet since 1950
asciilifeform: for the obvious reason.
asciilifeform: afaik 0 of the required info is at all public.
asciilifeform: pretty sure it was only ever 'mainstream' among the folx who were 'imminent remonetization of gold' etc.
mp_en_viaje: eh, at some point it was a major mainstream item, late 00s or so. kinda bicoin of the period, $item every office drone hasta know about / if you don't have "formed your own oppinion
asciilifeform unequipped to refute or confirm the notion
asciilifeform: mp_en_viaje: pretty much every orlol post, lol. tho he has an epicycle to explain why it dun push up price of barrel monotonically : demand destruction
mp_en_viaje: shit, peakx reminds me, what the hell happened to that whole peak oil craze.
asciilifeform tried, for machine tool control. rubbish.
a111: Logged on 2018-01-03 16:05 asciilifeform: but in very unrelated lulz, https://archive.is/bON1p >> 'It’s a bit absurd that a modern gaming machine running at 4,000x the speed of an apple 2, with a CPU that has 500,000x as many transistors (with a GPU that has 2,000,000x as many transistors) can maybe manage the same latency as an apple 2 in very carefully coded applications if we have a monitor with nearly 3x the refresh rate.'
asciilifeform: although they very much have a point, i.e. http://btcbase.org/log/2018-01-03#1763155 . ☝︎
asciilifeform: the discussion of latency reminds me of the 1990s bebox enthusiasts
mp_en_viaje: omg caught up with logs within the hour ? this was way less painful than i had feared.
a111: Logged on 2018-01-30 19:19 shinohai: yes emmylark is encouraged to contact me with mircea_popescu 's permission
mp_en_viaje: http://btcbase.org/log/2018-01-30#1778242 << nah, for one if you set up her bouncer you can read her logs, and for the other it breeds bad habits. she can do it herself once i get around to putting it on her menu ; meanwhile if enough folk complain ima just have her not chan till then ☝︎
mp_en_viaje: but since i did x therefore y follows and so on.
mp_en_viaje: this entire tower is built ou tof things that "i had no idea i was going to make before".
asciilifeform: i'ma have to pass this message.
mp_en_viaje: conversation isn't waiting for the other speaker to finally shut up so you can speak your piece.
mp_en_viaje: so ? maybe i have something to say to her.
asciilifeform: iirc the exact eggog was 'dun have anuffingtosay yet'
mp_en_viaje: asciilifeform, why's she all shying out anyway ? nobody ate the emmy lark character, whats the worst that can happen!
mp_en_viaje: http://btcbase.org/log/2018-01-30#1778230 << all they got here are butt implants. and how! ☝︎
asciilifeform: meanwhile, from asciilifeform's tortureroom, http://www.loper-os.org/pub/mpboard.jpg
mp_en_viaje: http://btcbase.org/log/2018-01-30#1778217 << word, the useless pinoy kid pens spun content re viagra while his exact equivalent from the white horde pens spun libtard interes titems. they're closer than they realise -- including the involuntary celibacy. ☝︎
asciilifeform: eh castration cults have existed in the past.
mp_en_viaje: (the transsexual army is not a rhetorical flourish. think : what is a transsexual ? one a) unoccupied enough to question something as fundamental as his sex and also b) dumb enough to get the wrong answer. meanwhile what is army built of ? a) people who obey orders. so...)
asciilifeform: wolf never seems to stop thinking he can digest wolfsangel, also
mp_en_viaje: giraffe that imagines it too could digest lions makes lion's favourite giraffe brand, i expect.
mp_en_viaje: but hey, the fantasy that it works for them is a large part of why bitcoin corrupts so well.
mp_en_viaje: "there's nothing intrinsically political about corectness, we could make armies out of transsexuals and scientists out of reformed scammers, why not!"
asciilifeform: 'we can have exactly #trilema but out of aryans and to serve clitler.' aka 'servantleaderz'!11
mp_en_viaje: "we, too, could have things" "how the fuck could you ever have anything ?" "well, if we did, then we would" "certainly."
mp_en_viaje: lol.. the "one could take republican and brainwash" is essentially the imperial fantasy
asciilifeform: mplement a more reasonable syntax and notation while keeping the same range checks, contract checks, safety checks, stack abilities, separation of concerns (type declarations, arrays vs pointers to pointers, by reference vs by value or in/out params, modules, high level threading abilities, sub modules, packages).'
asciilifeform: meanwhile, in entomology, gem , 'Ada is arguably more successful in its domain not because of its ridiculous verbosity, but because it has higher level features, separation of concerns, safety checks, development teams focused on embedded programming, aircraft specialists and programmers working on the compilers, etc. One could still take all of these same Ada experts, brainwash them, and have them (or another team with more sense) i
mp_en_viaje: in the quaint words of the virgin mary, oh im totally going.
a111: Logged on 2018-01-29 17:54 asciilifeform: considering that half the point of hardware debugger is to debug heavily-antidebuggistic shitware...
mp_en_viaje: http://btcbase.org/log/2018-01-29#1778097 << maybe even slightly more than half lol ☝︎
mp_en_viaje: somehow i had like an inkling tou'll say that
asciilifeform: from this, flows apache etc.
asciilifeform: the fundamental disease is that c is retarded.
mp_en_viaje: indeed. threading major problem even on modern apaches.
asciilifeform: fwiw ada's built-in sane threading and non-semaphoric thread-to-thread info passing features make it an inviting idea.
a111: Logged on 2018-01-29 17:24 BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: Contract start date is Feb 1st, but I am about to poke them to check the wire and see if the racking can start.
asciilifeform: i have not tried, could not get past the gag reflex last time
mp_en_viaje: apache is a terrible mess even today ; you might recall my regular meltdowns whenever tryin g to get it to work.
asciilifeform: certainly easier problem, algorithmically, than e.g. bignum
asciilifeform: http server ? fwiw adacore distributes one. ( i dun like it, for same reason as apache -- it's a megatonne of gnarl . but, it does in fact work, and benefits from the language guarantees etc )
asciilifeform: let's consider this puzzler
a111: Logged on 2018-01-29 17:10 asciilifeform would like to see a complete wwwtron in ada. but does not have any spare arms presently for such a thing.
mp_en_viaje: http://btcbase.org/log/2018-01-29#1778035 << an ada lamp would need you know, the a and the m. it may be possible to write a sqlizer in ada ; but i have my doubts an ada apache is actually possible. ☝︎
mp_en_viaje: iirc this is exposed in the admin gui, settings something
asciilifeform: even nao they're pretty light on the algo mechanics . ( asciilifeform does not know if there's 0 complaint from readership because everybody-grasps-anyway, or because ~nobody reads... )
a111: Logged on 2018-01-29 17:06 ave1: Hmm, I'm using mp-wp and I cannot find a setting that is supposed to scrub links or allow them. I am looking into it...
mp_en_viaje: http://btcbase.org/log/2018-01-29#1778033 << it has a tags allowed for comment. if you put b user can bold, if not no. you may not have a on the list. ☝︎☟︎
mp_en_viaje: there's just no way the smallest logical cuts are longer than weeklong.
asciilifeform: can be broken down into the smallest logical cuts, but not smaller.
a111: Logged on 2018-01-29 16:01 asciilifeform: thinking of switching to a 2week interval; these are not coming out quite the way i want'em
mp_en_viaje: http://btcbase.org/log/2018-01-29#1777970 << infiniely better to keep time discipline and adjust material than to lose time discipline to adjust it to your disease. ☝︎☟︎
mp_en_viaje: i can sadly report that ye olde days of raping the chambermaids and somon fumee buffet breakfast are all gone.
asciilifeform: oh hey iirc bogota was a runner-up in the castle-popescustein race, wasnnit.

trinque: could do some amount for free, then chick has to pay. it'd be good for her
trinque: why import the empire's "everything's free, gotta beg for tips"
shinohai: there is a surfeit of tits, years of znc in btc
trinque: shinohai: might even consider making them pay. gotta be years of znc in a pair of tits
BingoBoingo: I am about to find out. But I recall seeing some sorta carts chilling in the human habitble zone.
asciilifeform: BingoBoingo: do they have a console on wheels, or how is the after-the-screws-tightened config usually done nowadays ?

asciilifeform: BingoBoingo: didja meet the rack yet ?
BingoBoingo: In other WTFs, the bank Account one is setting me up with... is finally taking an interest in processing my application only six or seven weeks later.
jhvh1: shinohai: The operation succeeded.

BingoBoingo: We will see how it looks once I manage to get back to the hostel and shower off the loose hairs, but I had to do something while I awaited compiling.
