mircea_popescu: well, moar of a "if you can't use
time band for signalling you're stuck with a stitched
together in-band signalling monstrosity"
mircea_popescu: back in dos days was even pentix, if you recall, and
then
that arbitrary
tetris generator in space, you saw it ?
mircea_popescu: because, i guess, socialist poison, "in all
things we do must be one
thing where all
things are equal!"
mircea_popescu: funny, nobody
to my knowledge leveraged multi-cell plane fills.
mircea_popescu: combinatoric explosion -- always on your side.
that's fucking how.
mircea_popescu: in entirely unrelated news, here's a simple idea on how
to leverage computing power
to generate "game" content : create a hexagon filled with hexagonal cells ; cut an arbitrary number of partitions
to it, present
the pieces
to human
to "solve"
the problem.
a111: Logged on 2017-08-24 14:41 asciilifeform: ( why
to do
this ? just as in other cases of 'i can't believe it's not X!', dram is not actually random-access -- all currently sold drams only achieve
their rated speed in 'burst mode'; and from
that it follows
that
they are only ever read
to fill a cache line; and from
this,
trivial
timing leak etc. and
the joys of 'rowhammer', bonus. )
mircea_popescu: not
tenable
today because "zek + cellphone" is more like "nsa contractor"
than zek
mircea_popescu: nah, 1970s
timesharing is an outgrowth of "zeks are not persons", was fine.
mircea_popescu: absolutely was not proposed
that imperial idiocy is now "limited
to cloud". no, imperial idiocy is imperial idiocy.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform yes ; just picked a point at
the core of
the cloud of idiocy.
mircea_popescu: what next, "african proverb", what is
this,
the pantsuited hilarity radio show ?
mircea_popescu: and in fucking general -- idiot's failure
to register with
the republic "for a really long
time" doth not somehow enact idiot into anything else, what
the everloving fuck.
mircea_popescu thoroughly ignored "cloud" since
the day it was invented.
the fact
that
they failed
to address
this for a decade does not somehow enact a special sovereignity for
them, and make cloud a
thing. it is still not a
thing, as it NEVER FUCKING WAS. hurr.
mircea_popescu: what
THEY are
trying
to solve, "how
to perpetuate empire-on-your-box???" is not a problem
that needs any solving.
mircea_popescu: anyway,
to revisit
the upstack problem :
the solution
to rowhammer, 3.0 as 1.0, is not
to "make kernel flush all
the
time, 50% performance penalty" nor
the original "solutions" nor any of
that crap.
mircea_popescu: especially
the
tiny dop of a woman
that
took over when he was sacked (ie, next year), and who "ce pizda ma-sii!!!1"
then noticing completely frozen/silent bunch of 13yo went "what, you never heard
that before ?!"
mircea_popescu: 50yo women much better at
the... roman, shall we call it, approach
to education.
a111: Logged on 2017-12-29 16:01 asciilifeform: but moar like victorian
typhoidal 'nedeflorena' or who was it
mircea_popescu: ~only 25yo male we had in
the crew was ro lit dork, who refused
to explain what "oftica" (=
tuberculosis, but in ro folklore "disease of unfulfilled love") meant, and when pressed "you'll see in
the army".
mircea_popescu: in retrospect
the whole fucking point of
the "game" is evidently "take girl outside of her own safety margins as she herself imagines
them" ie fundamental maturation step.
mircea_popescu spent a while in junior high getting girls
to spin legs extended and
then pull
them in. "o noes!111"
a111: Logged on 2018-01-02 17:20 mircea_popescu: if you study
the dynamic equilibrium of liquid you notice first off
that most kinetic energy is
transferred
to wobbly vessel at
the peak ends not at
the center of movement, and by
the fringe liquid not
the central mass
mircea_popescu: seems reasonable. "Dear zek, do your part in building of
this great state as we define it".
mircea_popescu: i suppose
they could have had a shitty curve for instance,
train went off
track half
the
time anyway, zek
thought "button -- connected!"
mircea_popescu: moreover, resonance is not exactly
the problem here. whiplash, slightly different item
mircea_popescu: bridge
that doesnt -- can sit undisturbed for century.
mircea_popescu: nah.
train car
that doesn't have major safety factor over resonance is
taken out within first 10 miles.
mircea_popescu: ie, one comes "not from a good life" unlike
the other, so higher de facto standard baked in
mircea_popescu: no, because if
train car was as marginal as bridge, you couldn't drive it with fucking grain.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform
that bridge was marginal ;
train car is not marginal.
mircea_popescu: clip
those, you lose disproportionately in
the effect.
mircea_popescu: if you study

that most kinetic energy is

the peak ends not at
the center of movement, and by
the fringe liquid not
the central mass
☟︎ mircea_popescu: (the matter is often specifically lampshaded -- yes
the lady owns
the land, but watch de funes interact with her in, say, hibernatus. yes
the accountant is
there for HER
to sign
the expense sheets, but "ou, selon vous, est votre grand pere!!!11")
mircea_popescu: (and it behooves me
to point out
that
the antique arrangement is
transparently evident in
the domestic affairs of
the french, (and slightly, somewhat,
the italians) as late as
the 60s.)
a111: Logged on 2017-07-17 19:23 asciilifeform: but mircea_popescu himself had observation where 'not
the fault of
the spring, for being springy, if
the ratchet broke'
mircea_popescu: sorta like
the conversation in submarine, "why did you put grenade pin ?" "it was
there
to pull!" "but now we're all going
to die" "sorry"
mircea_popescu: this isn't a discussion about how "delilah cut some hair and sold it at
the market becoming rich and happy".
the fact of
the matter is,
they fucked each other over, and irrecoverably.
mircea_popescu: well,
the arrangement is psychoting in many numerous ways, what
the hell, forcing any given female into "venus genetrix" matrix is going
to hurt.
a111: Logged on 2016-11-20 23:49 mircea_popescu: all
through
this seeking my approval in
the sense of
trying
to verify if im all
that impressed. i... wasn't fucking impressed, because why
the fuck would i be impressed with
the male nurse.
mircea_popescu: do you see
the logic of "well -- if landwoman better perform, lest it finds a better performer ?", aka
trilema's "wtf, ~I~ should work
to entertain
the slaves ?!"
mircea_popescu: consider
this major point : in ancient greece, people were depicted with small penii ; large ones were considered bestial, comedic and insulting.
☟︎ mircea_popescu: so
then. as
the demographic pressure increases,
the conceptualization (the MALE conceptualization, as
the only kind
there is) of
the environment switches from land, cowoman separate
to landwoman.
