mircea_popescu: meanwhile in fatfinger expertises, i've managed to blank my scrollback somehow, mashing keyboard. this somehow never occured before, and holy hell is it ~distressing~
mircea_popescu: in other news : Eulora server back online, new ip is 79.124.78.188 ; players on the last client will have to edit their data/servers.xml to reflect the new ip to be able to connect. have fun y'all!
mircea_popescu: that business ain't never getting off any "ground" it imaginary finds itself on, is it.
mircea_popescu: lol poor guy. why the fuck does he think a domain does anything
mircea_popescu: in the end the timeline is jan 12 2012 - mar 28 2016. introductory article just published.
mircea_popescu: lobbes, sweet. insallah trilema's gonna start spitting logarticles today.
mircea_popescu: trinque, looky here, i have a job that needs done and a bunch of people who are interested in helpinh with it. for the past month i've been considering you to run the doing, however as i sit here i still don't know if you are or are not going to. you've not yet put out a plan for it, you've not said if you will, you've not set a date for it, you're just making occasional, impredictable and ~useless drive-bys
mircea_popescu: hanbot, you know, i think that's an excellent about page.
mircea_popescu: could you replace all instances of 4byte utf with [X ((Symbolic representation of Mother Goddess / Great Inca / USG's State Corporations has been removed.))] plox ?
mircea_popescu: the social gospeltards' main instrument, crumbling into the mud, spit and bullshit it was fashioned out of. and all the righteous morons running around fixing it while denying its broken.
mircea_popescu: also you should probably replace the current <table> with a <table width=x"> where x is the implicid content column width for the blog, eg on trilema 560
mircea_popescu: it can't stand as you have it atm, the leftmost column throughout the table.
mircea_popescu: of course dude gives me a very romanian "intellectual" vibe tbh.
mircea_popescu: but yes, it's a concept from game theory, mosty as an cybernetics application, because people writing programs to power droid fights or whatever need to put something in the if statements, and that something's better be a scalar. this makes no particular sense besides serving that need, and so it became a tongue in cheek reference for "if one had to assign arbitrary scalar values to so and so thing"
mircea_popescu: later today ima put logs up to 28th march 2016 on trilema proper then, should be fun.
mircea_popescu: i understand the abstract appeal of, "look here, hash1=hash2". but what this means is things such as "it is not possible to have a timestamp. AT ALL." sure, in many cases timestamps are abused / fucking stupid. but this is not "many cases", this is AT ALL.
mircea_popescu: but yes, getting an ever clearer grasp of the shenanigans is central.
mircea_popescu: so imo the only sane way to approach that sadness is by progressively limiting variance in binaries.
mircea_popescu: it's not even clear to me, to take this as far in theory as it goes, that once we have a literal by-hand re-written compiler it'll be absolutely deterministic. at some point it becomes a question of "branch binaries by X or carry Y spare MB with each binary"
mircea_popescu: as to fixed binary output...i expect that'll take a whole lot of doing, there's mucho "intelligence" baked in even that comparatively early gcc ver
mircea_popescu: ave1, probably some selection of the build scripts is a good idea. even if we end up changing them later, afaik for all the hate nobody builds shit any other way atm
mircea_popescu: i really don't see the problem with taking anything besides c/cpp/ada out
mircea_popescu: re documentation, it's an iffy proposition dropping any, seeing how little there actually is ; then again it's an iffy proposition keeping any, seeing how dubiously unreliable it can get. what's it bother as it stands ?
mircea_popescu: ave1, it seems to me we probably want both c and c++ for systems reasons, portions of the kernel / toolset still are in c iirc ; and probably ada since we were doing work on it. fortran possibly not
mircea_popescu will now go happily to bed, having permanently ruined everyone's shit.
mircea_popescu: diana_coman, im pleased to report i buried your guy under enough material to last him the month lulz.
mircea_popescu: they're not needed on trilema, the quotes ; but if used gotta be used correctly else it fucks up the parser
mircea_popescu: incidentally, apparently i originally published an earlier draft ; early birds might enjoy a re-read.
mircea_popescu: dorion, turns out i needed a coupla fail tries before i could produce a lierate comment ; plox delete them
mircea_popescu found it through the mp-wp process of ossasepia.com/aspa aka "put in the first few letters of title after domain, mp-wp finds for you".
mircea_popescu: they got a list of like 5 things, and god help you if you're trying to find something
other than that. hey diana_coman, what's your article with the woman's difficulties, (sexy, smart) pick one ?
mircea_popescu: when it comes to the marital bed, young grooms can surprise. the barren do not.
mircea_popescu: diana_coman, there was a story recorded once, of two women that were married on the same day. one of them was married to a guy who the witness deemed too young, and the other one was sterile.
mircea_popescu: who knows, if it gets cloudy, foggy an' dark enough, conceivably even turd could shine ? or at least, you couldn't accuse it of not shining ? YES ?
mircea_popescu: and meanwhile in
cesspool news, every larger turd splashing in there sends all the lesser turds into a tizzy. who knows, maybe it's their time now ?!?!?! THE TURD'S TIME TO SHINE!!!!
mircea_popescu: gotta "actualize her concerns" or how the fuck tlp put it
mircea_popescu: and yes, it's very much a will to relevancy in the irrelevant.
mircea_popescu: and today, i turned the remainder into ro style refried beans. which holy hell...
mircea_popescu: in other household news, coupla days ago hanbot made a pot of fasole cu ciolan (ro take on franks and bean, with smoked meat instead of whatever the fuck "franks" are anymore)
mircea_popescu: yeah, but they generally understand it's performative art, they don't go home as if going to sleep. they go home as if waking up.
mircea_popescu: i suppose the future holds a whole boatload of jerry springer shows about border patrols.
mircea_popescu: somehow the imaginary "right" of retards to tell you how you should fuck their daughter was struck, but supposedly the imaginary "right" of retards to "border" remains ? what the fuck, it's like going about in tudor style gedups, beyond ridiculous anachronism.
mircea_popescu: "oh, lithuania". bitch, nobody asked you anything, move over. it's the great wasteland, you're a country like second life's a galaxy.
mircea_popescu: wtf all these leftover jokes doing thinking they're like countries and shit.
mircea_popescu: but yes, very much so re effort waste ; and VERY much so re how it has to be seen to be seen./
