danielpbarron: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=17-09-2015#1277523 << people were visibly irritated by my unintentionally topical choice of "Ron Paul for President" hoodie I wore to dinner last night. This was at a bar/grill; the kind with televisions on all the walls, one of which displayed the "debate" ☝︎

mircea_popescu: "But if all you have to say is that you think TOFU is a bad idea, please restrain yourself." << all i have to say is not that "i think tofu is a bad idea". all i have to say is that tofu isn't even a bad idea, and Neal H. Walfield is too stupid to even be wrong.
shinohai: It sound like laziness, but I'm still noob
punkman: there's also a slight problem when you have identical files with different filepaths, I was thinking of doing path+sha512 in my mappings
BingoBoingo: But who am I to know if BitPay sent 100,000 BTC to a 1BitcoinEater address back in 2012?
BingoBoingo: As opaque as BitPay is if we are at this moment ascribing its failures to anything I am still leaning towards its deal with ESPN, Bowl game naming right have slaughtered many a small business
BingoBoingo: I mean ESPN can do more than the Department of Education to make or break bezzle institutions

BingoBoingo: ANd disk I/O

BingoBoingo: copypaste: I love your twitter dispatches from the Islands. Keep on rolling on!
copypaste: I will PM you.
asciilifeform: unrelated (or perhaps not), i found the source of the peculiarly retarded nonstandard tx floods
mircea_popescu: but i repeat myself.
mircea_popescu: i dunno what sort of retards these people are, but it's not naturally orcuring.
asciilifeform: but why the fuck would i live out of range of a university with a maths library.
asciilifeform: yeah, i get it, grandfather lenin did say, 'intellectuals are not the nation's brain but it's starfish'.
asciilifeform: i thought it was a kind of starfish klein bottle
BingoBoingo: I'm kinda starting to think the more I read that Tanzania might not be joke for too long. Seriously looking like hardware #b-a candidate
asciilifeform: (~that~ particular topologist would work great in tanzania. on his atomic dirigible ! for all i know, it is parked there ~right now~)
mircea_popescu: http://trilema.com/2015/lets-address-some-of-the-more-common-pseudo-arguments-raised-by-the-very-stupid-people-that-like-the-gavin-scamcoin-proposal/#comment-115361 << i am suspek this will be one of those articles where people come to cry their hurt butts long after anything.

assbot: Re: "Well, I want to switch over to replace EMACS LISP with Guile." - Naggum cll archive ... ( http://bit.ly/1KrizFw )
asciilifeform: i had to use my brain, this is obscene
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: I just rip the lid off and stopped doing that when I cracked the lid
asciilifeform: i feel like i'm mangling it every time i pull that lid off.
pete_dushenski: i read 'quant-tra'
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: Mentally I pronounce it Cunt-Raw ☟︎
asciilifeform: BingoBoingo: incidentally, how is 'qntra' meant to be spoken? i will confess that to me it is 'kvantra', rhyming with 'mantra'
pete_dushenski: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=17-09-2015#1277129 << i can't read 'ivanovich' without thinking of anna karenina, but there was no ivan there iirc. where's this from, mircea_popescu ? ☝︎
mod6: that's one of the next things i have to tackle, aside from the cleanup of some stuff: press
asciilifeform: btw this is the picture i needed to finally say clearly how 'v' ~was meant to work~
mircea_popescu: mod6 i take it that the idea of making V the epicenter of bitcoin releases going further is aprpoved by the foundation ?
asciilifeform: i officially take back the thing i said re: things not getting done until i do them ...!
mircea_popescu: i wanna send this guy a cookie or something i like him so much
BingoBoingo: <asciilifeform> i suspect that ~this~ magical apogee is not reached until you get to 'too big for the crematorium' max level. << Apparently not even that big
asciilifeform: more or less what i pictured when http://log.bitcoin-assets.com//?date=15-08-2015#1238291 ☝︎
asciilifeform: works ~exactly~ as i envisioned
asciilifeform: i suspect that ~this~ magical apogee is not reached until you get to 'too big for the crematorium' max level.
BingoBoingo: <mircea_popescu> i bet the author is this stupid fat kid that's "a feminist" and also "really supports" womenz. << You forget the FUDA: Fat Usurped Dick Area... Basically when the pubic fat is too much for the dick to be externally visible
mircea_popescu: i bet the author is this stupid fat kid that's "a feminist" and also "really supports" womenz.
mircea_popescu: i think the bitcoin xt might have did the died.
asciilifeform: ah now i vaguely recall this.
asciilifeform: i do confess, i expected them to get away with it
mircea_popescu: http://i.imgur.com/STvv9k2.jpg << and the end of bitfinex
asciilifeform: at one point i had a thought: that one might win from logging monstrous tx-en
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: Depending on how this bet goes I may get planned node Quantrill running sometime next month.
asciilifeform: is that thing actually relayed by somebody, or cooked special-order for my box, i wonder.
asciilifeform: i suppose this is the opposite magnetic pole from chicks throwing panties at you
BingoBoingo: <asciilifeform> but somehow i don't think this applies to most folks afflicted with 'one-eyed' aim << The reason for closing one eye is reaction speed and avoiding "noise" that emerges in binocular vision when eyes are disparate in their image quality.
asciilifeform: but somehow i don't think this applies to most folks afflicted with 'one-eyed' aim
BingoBoingo: Up until that summer I used to be able to get all but the last line on the snell chart without effort. Last line could get about 75% nao cursed with 20/20 ish vision
mircea_popescu: i have perfect vision, in spite of being on computers since about age 9. nevertheless, that distance is still uncomfortable for the purpose.
BingoBoingo: <asciilifeform> mircea_popescu: the advent of crt ruined eyes << First summer after high school when exposed to computer monitors daily for extended periods of time first... Eyesight measurably worsened, kept myself to panel display only as much as I can after that
mircea_popescu: i bet they didn't even need glasses aged 12.
BingoBoingo: <asciilifeform> BingoBoingo: is this observation qntra-worthy? << If you want to write it up or just drop it as a comment I have no reason to deny you that.
asciilifeform: i shit thee not, official communique
BingoBoingo: <mircea_popescu> is that tonite ? Yeah but I dun have cable, refuse adobeFlasherast, and can't torrent a livestream so must wait.
asciilifeform: https://pbs.twimg.com/media/CPCYHKzVAAAJG6w.jpg:large << close-up photograph. if i could bet on this, i would bet a few coin that he ~busted open an ordinary alarm clock~ to make this ☟︎
BingoBoingo: I am ingnoratish in some matters. Also drinking anxiety vodka hoping my horse Rand can get the seven minutes.
kakobrekla: “I told them no, I was trying to make a clock.”

mircea_popescu: wife of "big daddy wanted me to become a lawyer, I became a lawyer. he said get married, I got married. he said have kids and i had kids and now he can't stand them. so he never loved me. fine! but I appeal to your common decency! gimme some money!"
mircea_popescu: check me out, i'm poetic!
asciilifeform: i shit thee not
assbot: Logged on 19-10-2014 03:19:21; asciilifeform: main danger, as i understand, is that their combustion will: create a visible plume of smoke. or, the ultimate catastrophe, 'auschwitzy' smell.
mircea_popescu: (i also do not hold the view that indians EVER made scholarly anything. nor do i believe people like bharara or the raj schmuck recently mentioned are part of the western tradition, in spite of doing a passible job of masquerading it. the DA's office with bharara in it simple ceased to be much akin to the US DA and more like a fetid indian "institution", just like state with rice was more like state hence than like sta
ag3nt_zer0: no offense but I actually think one would have to explore him a bit more than less than a chapter to really offer up a viable criticism... but maybe that's just because I don't know what you have read and so do not know by what criteria you judge something as true or not true (some people hear voices, others echoes of dead philosophers)... at any rate thanks for taking the time to look and for sharing your thoughts at all
ag3nt_zer0: phf: are you just referring to that east vs. west chapter? I ask because though he explores eastern esoterism he was actually a practicing sufi
phf: another point i'll make before checking in for the night, is that eastern mystical tradition is experiential, a lot of ideas of the nature of ultimate reality and such are not even worth contemplating until you go through whatever the lineage prescribes, meditation, purification practices, breathing exercises, physical exercises, that are supposed to bring you towards understanding of ultimate reality. talking about it or presenting second

trinque: and looking back I couldn't tell you wtf he was trying to say
trinque: closest I ever came to reading any "theosophy" was Jiddu Krishnamurti
