mircea_popescu: (where sound good = "i've heard it a lot, and the context seemed to me positive")
mircea_popescu: "But... the most delicious part of this is that on at least two separate occasions, the board pressed /u/ekjp to outright ban ALL the hate subreddits in a sweeping purge. She resisted, knowing the community, claiming it would be a shitshow. Ellen isn't some "evil, manipulative, out-of-touch incompetent she-devil" as was often depicted. She was approved by the board and recommended by me because when I left, she was the
mircea_popescu: pretty sure i saw the guy before.
assbot: Logged on 22-04-2015 22:11:24; artifexd: Bottom line, I expect to have something to share for testing in 4 weeks.
mircea_popescu: ben_vulpes i just use a desktop.
ben_vulpes: i would like to know how mircea_popescu operates the computer machine healthily if he does not suffer from this affliction, or fear it
ben_vulpes: "i have been typing a lot and my hand hurts"
mircea_popescu: i got a better idea.
cazalla: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=15-07-2015#1202061 <<< vancouver may as well be on another planet for all i care tbh but point taken all the same ☝︎
trinque: I wanna build a bastard lisp for the webasm thing
trinque: in particular what I like about the approach of just editing the db is it doesn't try to say this is a "customer" action or an "order" or so on
ben_vulpes: i guess this is the "small teams and discipline" approach
trinque: I think that's the right way.
trinque: I still don't see how I'd use CLOS like I use view composition in the db ☟︎
trinque: I tend to think Table is an object, not Customer
trinque: so far I tend to think the object system is for UI doodads, not for the data model
trinque: with a chick I hooked up with on the trip
trinque: heh, I did the same on a school trip's flight back from colorado
ben_vulpes: the funny thing about my stator is that i have a binary called bitcoind-7-11-patched-with-dumpblock
ben_vulpes: perhaps i do not intend to 'own the space' as mircea_popescu describes the act
ben_vulpes: i for one have fondled and been fondled on many a flight with zero harrasment from either other passengers or flight staff
ben_vulpes: <pete_dushenski> "A flight attendant testified Lander and Jason George Chase, a co-accused, used a coat to cover their laps to fondle each other." << on air canada flight. both 'criminals' now under house arrest and/or probation. << i can't figure for whom this is a problem
ben_vulpes: after which i mused to myself about vibrating handles and mircea_popescu's computer use wisdom
ben_vulpes: although i'm going to miss my new ergonomic keyboard
ben_vulpes: i have a whole weekend of plane flights and insane fambly ahead
ben_vulpes: <trinque> another website I've snapped up in entirety << have you pared it down to just text yet?
ben_vulpes: and yes asciilifeform - i do
ben_vulpes: * danielpbarron prefers to use cash whereever possible so as to give merchant the option of keeping it "under the table" << where i come we call this the "cascadian discount"
ben_vulpes: <asciilifeform> ag3nt_zer0: splendid, went to a kind of groceries shop where pr0l3z are not permitted (costs a hundy/yr to enter) << the things you find entertaining, i swear
ben_vulpes: <phf> ben_vulpes: eventually, aha. i'm not even sure yet that i can repeat the process. for example part of build process is a script that chooses between gcc-4.6 and clang based on whether it's .c or .mm. the fact that the result links i think is a miracle << bwahahahahahaha
asciilifeform: pete_dushenski: the 'factories better' thing is the specific item i meant by 'an india'
danielpbarron: asciilifeform> i actually have no idea what their colours were prior. << someone archived it -- was red in 2012 https://archive.is/iLdQ
asciilifeform: to round this off, in as far as i understand, india is the last remaining 'india'.
pete_dushenski: i'm... busy.
pete_dushenski: and i can't seem to source an explanation for the bloody thing
asciilifeform: i actually have no idea what their colours were prior.
pete_dushenski: or mebbe i'm a johnny come lately cynic. also possibru.
pete_dushenski: "hey u guise, i have a capital idea ! mebbe no one will notice that we've inflated trillion of worthless rmb into our 'markets' if we change the colours of the stop lights at the intersection !"
ag3nt_zer0: I am interested
ag3nt_zer0: no I appreciate it!
asciilifeform: i'm about to go to sleep, actually
ag3nt_zer0: asciilifeform: I am guessing not in the way that you might be about to tell me?
pete_dushenski: not that i really give a shit about vancouver, mind you, but it's sorta kinda not really in my backyard atm.
ag3nt_zer0: yeah I hear you. ftr I didn't mean to imply that I concluded anything...
pete_dushenski: http://news.domain.com.au/domain/real-estate-news/china-doubles-down-on-australian-real-estate-20150715-gicgju.html << don't imagine this'll cheer up cazalla but i might be wrong.
pete_dushenski: that it's already in the logs... i dun really give a shit about ag3nt_zer0's hormones !
ag3nt_zer0: fair enough, maybe I am a gland junkie but I still find some of this stuff mildly shocking
asciilifeform: pete_dushenski: i believe it is in the logz
pete_dushenski: i sorta doubt that many 18-20 year olds today are up on chinese 'democratic' history from before they were born
mthreat: search is back up. I'll be moving it to another server soon.
ag3nt_zer0: danielpbarron: is that your booklist? I would be happy to see your list, the ones that cater to or inform your self-identification as a religious thinker, if you ever have the inclination to share...
trinque: another website I've snapped up in entirety
decimation: The basic problem is that the robber-barons of Silicon Valley, unlike their Victorian forebears, do not realize that, if they want all this science, they will actually have to pay for it - themselves. Instead, they look at their tax forms and think: I gave at the office."
decimation: heh I forgot that paragraph from yarvin: "
trinque: I've got a 2tb I can dd all the drives to
trinque: however I do find mention of these model HP servers being donated
trinque: I'd much rather automate things than have help
BingoBoingo: <asciilifeform> to cook my dinner, i suppose << Janatorial duties
asciilifeform: this is one of the ways i differ from mircea_popescu
asciilifeform: to cook my dinner, i suppose
asciilifeform: what do i need the derps for ?
asciilifeform: i specifically asked dks for those
BingoBoingo: turns out in original I had helpfile line wrong
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: Build on OpenBSD with flags I use and missing from 0.5.x atm like getpeerinfo
asciilifeform: BingoBoingo: i'm still burning to learn why you're maintaining 0.7
asciilifeform: (for completeness, i will note that i will not maintain code mit undergrads wrote in '89. or '99. or '09. or at all.)
trinque: https://i.imgur.com/7zzMNgv.jpg << tramp stamp
asciilifeform: i've said it before, and will say again - smbx is a dead end. i will not maintain crapcode that mit undergrads wrote in 1979.
mod6: let's see if i can break diff...
asciilifeform: a local scrap dealer i will not presently name, sells retired usg contractors' boxes, often with whole shebang still in.
mircea_popescu: no but i like how he thinks
trinque: BingoBoingo: I did!
asciilifeform: decimation: there's no shortage of this kind of thing, as i understand
asciilifeform: i certainly have no interest in it now.
asciilifeform: ag3nt_zer0: it wasn't especially viable then. and after adoption as official usg policy in a mildly perverted form, i can't think of who might voluntarily work with such a thing today
asciilifeform: ag3nt_zer0: the 'atomic bomb' is - now, as when i wrote the piece- -- the mega-holdings under a sole key, which never move.
ag3nt_zer0: asciilifeform: could be wrong but I thought he was addressing the tx volume with that statement
decimation: asciilifeform: yeah it is lulzy. I've heard from some small time merchants that amex dropped their transaction fees below visa/mc
decimation: re: costco amex < yeah I posted about this awhile ago. turns out amex didn't want to 'make a deal' to keep costco, and instead steer their business toward servicing poor folks at walmart
BingoBoingo: <mats> dunno, i see plenty of lumpens coming in for rx and alcohol << Rules for this happen on a state-by-state basis. Normally the "shame" keeps all but saviest lumps out
asciilifeform: why this was - i can't recall. might like to ask him.
asciilifeform: ag3nt_zer0: i don't recall mircea_popescu ever devoting a whole article to specifically that one. his position, iirc, is 'satoshi lost the keys' ☟︎
ag3nt_zer0: Today I was looking at LoperOS and one of the things I read was his article about the kill switch... searched the logs for commentary but didn't find too much. But I thought maybe I had read something addressing it on Trilema... is that right?
asciilifeform: i can't think of a reason to suspect that this was ever public, but doesn't hurt to look.
mats: i'm looking for a pdb to 'vwififlt.sys', for an intel wifi card i believe
asciilifeform: BingoBoingo: the operative distinction is 'no chargebacks', i think
mod6: i have serached forward to SSL
mod6: so i've got the two binaries recompiled, not stripped. not exactly sure what i'm looking for in here. doing a diff with objdump.
mats: and i hear their entire back-end is mostly paper
mats: never seen one like that. but i have been tempted to get a 'costco amex', the rates are good and amex has historically had great customer service
ag3nt_zer0: I was following then got all paranoid and been stuck on researching what GCC is, whether or not it can compromise system, and whether this is all an elaborate scam to get my non-existent bitcoins
asciilifeform: mats: the one i went to had a bouncer.
mats: they can't exclude plebs for those particular purchases i believe
mats: dunno, i see plenty of lumpens coming in for rx and alcohol
asciilifeform: mats: i kinda wonder how many subscribers are paying not to see the lumpens
ag3nt_zer0: well, I would love it at any rate
mircea_popescu: in other news : i am satisfied that the 363730 fork and the 363730-363736 dead chain contain nothing remarkable from a "hey guise they switched out the blokchanin" perspective. so i'm letting this rest.
danielpbarron: funny too because I have tail -f ~/.bitcoin/debug.log going 24/7 but as a way of monitoring it
danielpbarron: yes I now see why that would be better and feel foolish for the way I had been doing it
danielpbarron: also i've been saving up debug.log between restarts via cat .bitcoin/debug.log >> debug.log
