mircea_popescu: meanwhile in unexpected lulz, LordMPofTMSR "How about you drop whatever it is you're doing and dedicate your life to serving me ?" PetiteGoddess21 21F Dom "Yes sir" LordMPofTMSR "Nah, meanwhile had a look at your profile. Not interested."
mircea_popescu: pretty sure it's partial here, and i'm on the wrong side of teh hill momentarily.
mircea_popescu: fat people can't find their feet ; but i'm so overweight i can't find my fucking stories.
mircea_popescu: anyway, i was looking for the story of the mouse chewing at the jar lid hole with his tiny teeth
mircea_popescu: could a very shitty battery meltdown and fuck the rk then ?
mircea_popescu: the expectation that a breakdown in communication is a stable state better come with a baked-in expectation of 0 financial flows, wtf.
mircea_popescu: vaguely reminescent of occasional fetard going "i don't know you" / occasional moron going "this trilema article is too long and complicated for my understander".
mircea_popescu: this is pretty fucking amusing to me, too. "oh, i don't understand the kids... and this is my problem". bitch... if i don't understand them i don't feed them, this "you don't understand me" is just about "tomorrow, i die", naught else. let them fucking work ass off to be understood, wtf, you want me to do it ?!
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform nah, generally parents content to "not understand" offspring and "feed, anyway"
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform are you kidding me ? the species is found anywhere samsung put "smart"phones on layaway.
mircea_popescu: principally because they're so easy to filter them out.
mircea_popescu: rapidly becoming the social pariah, this cosmetologist princess-psychologist.
mircea_popescu: but for instance i have standing orders for 0 tolerance and active harassment / belittling and sabotage of them by my girls, whenever encountered (which mostly is receptionists, but hey)
mircea_popescu: as it is... i dunno, i suspect they'll starve, orange man doesn't seem inclined to continue the slop.
mircea_popescu: well, if hillary had her way they'll all be "social "workers" coming up with rules an' regulations for each other.
mircea_popescu: can't say that there's what to dispute this view with, that they've failed to meaningfully individuate.
mircea_popescu: so i guess i switched historical priviledge for social priviledge as i aged.
mircea_popescu: i do recall in youth was a lot less selective/priviledged, whichever way you look at it ; but somehow inexplicably stupidity not nearly as organised or militant in same youth. i mean, fuck, girls back then were ASHAMED to sit with the mainstream, jesus fuck.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform this particular one entirely unfuckable, tiny tits an' a belly. but in general, idiots have ~no chance of making it through anyway, so can't say as i have.
mircea_popescu: sui generis. there's a whorde of these cosmetologists with aspirations, populating what's left of the human side of usg's "ugc" lines, filling up the "journalist" pipelines, camwhoring etc.
mircea_popescu: sadly, their way to their butugychag is blocked by a bunch of shriveled old prunes decked in star trek paraphenalia.
mircea_popescu: meanwhile on the other side, "About me I love the X Files and Criminal Minds. I'm studying Cosmetology right now but next semester I am transferring to Psychology. "
mircea_popescu: by the time your evening's entertainment is screwdriver-juggling neutron reflectors, you've got some pretty serious pretentious issues going. i mean aestheticism is one thing, but by the time that's all that's left...
mircea_popescu: yeah... you know i used to do the old thumb-stopper thing... until i noticed i got spots.
mircea_popescu: you telling me slotin was a sort of curie jr, had "no idea what could occur" ?
mircea_popescu: while the former is actually true, the latter doesn't follow, it's not like he had to use the beryl for a soup bowl.
mircea_popescu: i don't get why they can't simply use a mirror / scintillator / something.
mircea_popescu: let all the bright minds monkey swing from the fucking thing until they fall over.
mircea_popescu: i tell you honestly, if i ran a lab where such a compound was seriously important, i'd spend the 100k or w/e it is to have a model welded out of steel balls and rods, and place it in the lab gym.
mircea_popescu: your head will fall out through your arsehole if you attempt to meaningfully interact with something as large as to make that thing collapse into degenerate matter through a "3d visor" color interferer thingee.
mircea_popescu: to protest its carnality is as protesting cunt's sliminess. it's "unwieldy" specifically because it works well.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform no, see, what you call "unwieldy" is the very quality of the item in question. that is it's true value.
mircea_popescu: turns out there's NOT THAT MANY possible atomic states.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform at the same time, we had very good quality 3d chemistry modeller. it consisted of a bunch of sacks, with colored spheres with holes correctly planarly inclined, and plastic sticks.
mircea_popescu: at least the french socialists entirely dedicated themselves to "aesthetics" ie masturbation, rather than "science" and "engineering"
mircea_popescu: in fact, that publication enduringly shook my confidence in german intelligence. included ALL SORTS of utterly retarded shit -- say a "boat" consisting of a piece of paper with a cut inside, you pour oil there and it "propels" it
mircea_popescu: (frosi, teh magazine of teh ddr's own pionierorganisation iirc, included a pair in one of the editions i got. i even played with them.
mircea_popescu: was all the rage when i was in school. alongside the period "GREAT DISCOVERY" of "3d glasses".
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform and "russia" sells "own processor". "only worx" etc.
mircea_popescu: "want". so far that thing only keeps "researchers" mortgages paid.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform only "revived" as a money sucker, afaik deployments still on off the shelf micro
mircea_popescu: in principle, for as long as that's not run out, the disk won't lose sectors. but then again, a definitive answer to this turns into debug-ssd-fw+kernel, which...
mircea_popescu: afaik ssd realloc counter starts turning ~the day they're deployed.
mircea_popescu: instrumentation to hunt for this is by now in the vein of "debug bdb". which im not particularly inclined to do, marked for complete removal anyway.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform disk afaik fine ; probably bdb itself shat it at some prior point, tho atm dunno a mechanism.
mircea_popescu: apparently 200 reqs ~per 100ms~ (that's how long it takes to complete one) is not enough to bring it down.
☟︎☟︎ mircea_popescu: nah, just, if you're multipling (for simplicity) 01 x 01, it won't do 0x1 0x0 0x1 parts
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform ie, splits the ints in bus width chunks and only does all 4 quadrants depending on results from the others.
mircea_popescu: i suspect double-wide mul might be implemented by lookup tables.
mircea_popescu: there's that old joke re "i read good books twice but bad books i don't read at all" which very much applies : if only one knew before looking whether an algo is fast or slow!
mircea_popescu: i suppose you might say "it shouldn't be x2, my expectation would be it's x2^1/2", but w/e.
mircea_popescu: bvt if you think about it, it has to be slower, because operations are fast and allocations slow.
