mircea_popescu: oh, obviously : there's no possiblity of name conflicts, either. the fact that my key defines "usg"
as x and trump's key defines "usg"
as y allows us both to live our respective delusions happily.
mircea_popescu: no more need to run javascript (ie, unsecured remote code) ; no more need to "ask people to upgrade" ; no more anything of the idiotic sort. if i want a cuntoo/mp-wp/we it is now i have to ask here, and maybne someone produces one. this could just
as well be handled by the machines, it's a machine task.
trinque: it also leaves space for *multiple* hypertext document viewers, many
as you like.
mircea_popescu: 5. client proceeds to build what it can (if set to, and
as per signatures again) and present the pile.
☟︎ mircea_popescu: 3. open link to machine, explain what it is it wants, get an answer in the form of "here's a list of document containers, which do you want". it explains which it wants (such
as "all" or w/e) and it gets a container containing them. maybe it's gzipped or whatever.
mircea_popescu: 2. the client queries whichever gns it is configured to, and inquires
as to contacting machines which hold data related to this item. it receives a list of them, on the basis of what signatures mircea_popescu told it to trust signed.
mircea_popescu: there's no obligation on anyone to maintain any particular portion of it, or to communicate it to anyone -- can be run locally just
as well (in practice, equiv rto "only trust my signature").
mircea_popescu: let's put this in different terms : the happiest life is, empty planet, where man can go picking berries / quals/womenz
as he feels inclined. everything fits well and all is good. the necessary correlate is that the petri dish slowly fills, at which point incompatibles will result in perpetual war and strife. all is not so good.
mircea_popescu: then it could tell you "well, here's that thing you wanted in a browser, because that's where it says it goes, and we couldn't process the song part because nobody you trust signed an implementation of anything on the list of song things, but the text is there
as per so-and-so-textizer signed by x y and z"
mircea_popescu: basically, technocucks so fucking petrified of their emotions and the structure of power, they will retreat into bikeshedding
as a comfortable substitute for sanity.
mircea_popescu: i know why this is, obviously, but the important point is that this is a miserable, second hand knowledge, of ENTIRELY the same substrance
as shilbert's.
mircea_popescu: but note that i don't give anyone the address to said bookshop if they seem confused
as to who they're talking to.
mircea_popescu: anyway, but
as to the matter at hand, they had a falling out over holocaust social game proper rules!!1
mircea_popescu:
as if there's a set of recipes to choose from or what ?
mircea_popescu: in any case, the history of interwar germany is interesting
as a topic of study, rather than a topic of conversational macguffins.
mircea_popescu: usual anachronism, "this toe sock works great
as a soup starter so that's what it was". not THEN it wasn't lel. then it was a complicated thing. such
as for isntance, a desire of the new socialist strep to make "culture just

as the guys they were trying to replace, landeschnekt and ritters dominating the army.
mircea_popescu: and i find it superlatively dubious that "i have made a study" relies on having reviewed no original materials but read chomsky's
as cliffnotes. this is no way to get anywhere, and i suspect a large portion of chomsky detractors are actually almost-intelligent folk who tried to use him in this manner, got hurt in the process, and decided to assign blame, if possible to the tool they misused. chomsky is fine, but not if you're
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform you know, i can't miss that for someone who read and traveled and so on
as you say, naggum has a lot of trouble destructuring nubbinisms.
mircea_popescu: a) germany won ww2, which is why us is trying to be alt-germany not alt-britain ; and why hitlers' goals (anihilation of british empire) were delivered upon ; b) the war was by very far the best thing that couldf ever have happened to russians,
as individual people.
mircea_popescu: let the ~actual~ 15yos be in the position where they have to explain themselves, and receive in exchange clarifications of the rules and punishments
as appropriate.
mircea_popescu: there's this observation that "the dumb woman's ideal is to live in K-selected society so there's no infibulation or tit pounding ; but that then she personally defects to pursue r-selection". this may or may not be true
as applied, but it exists
as a trope, the forever wank of the insufficient, be it a dumb woman, a dysfunctional adolescent (the neil simon type, that then "goes to city and becomes his TRUE SELF writing for n

mircea_popescu: there's no magic number
as to WHICH past. but in point of fact past is all there is.
mircea_popescu: but when i have to tell the machine ~what I want~,
as opposed to ~what the world is~, we're lost for sanity.
mircea_popescu: the ~NECESSARY~ correlate of "don't say faggot, so the dumb that are also gay do not feel excluded" ; "don't say stuff like
http://trilema.com/2017/the-boundless-burden/ lest you discourage the dumb bulk of womanhood from participating" etc is that EVENTUALLY you will come to "change the language every third year so

as a general-purpose 'self-describing data' -ikr? - horror , and idea was that it would be edited ~with appropriate tools~ - which unsurprisingly never were invented )
mircea_popescu: which is why discussion with electrum (or any other such tardism) isn't (
as the pantsuit aggitators try to make it) carried "on the technical merits". it will be carried in the terms of "those involved are not people, may not touch keyboards, cut their hands and gouge their eyes out".

a111: Logged on 2018-01-07 14:23 asciilifeform: gzip was never purpose-built for this. nao picture if it were. naggum,

mircea_popescu: would have realized the insanity of requiring the verbose end-tags and the stupid syntax. XML-RPC and SOAP and the like could have been fairly inexpensive things. But, alas, people prefer buggy text formats that they can approximate rather than precise binary formats that follow general rules that are make them

mircea_popescu: "By the way, the SGML Document Interchange Format (ISO 9069) uses ASN.1 to ship SGML documents around. I wrote an implementation of SDIF in three days.

mircea_popescu will pay 2 bitcents to the first l2 (not l1) that produces timing data, to the same standard
as teh graph, + machine spec.
mircea_popescu:
as a general rule : if you publish a graph, which is continuous, and based on empirical data, do the world a favour and color-dot the datapoints on there.
mircea_popescu: yeah, i'm also quite pleased with the very good style of the items. readily doubles

mircea_popescu: get a grip man, you have this strange reactive mr hyde portion, thoroughly anxiety driven,

as opposed to the "buck never stops" only possible alternative.

PeterL: nah, simmilar layout but about twice
as many buttons
PeterL: and how do I know if I take random patch from you and stick it in my different patch tree that it will not break something? wouldn't I want to have the same world
as you before adding your patch?
PeterL: and I don't see it
as cut-and paste, you would just be changing the one line in the patch to merge it into your own flow?

as part of the discussion, or else go discuss in the sense of, talking to yourself.
mircea_popescu: second off, this approach where you take some vague fragment of what was said, respin it into some bit of nonsense meaningful to some random other interest in your own head and proceed
as if that's what's said is not a game anyone in my experience willingly entertained.

a111: Logged on 2018-01-05 19:01 mircea_popescu: in any case, here's the logic : the proximate cause of the failure of "computer science" to amount to 0 (not epsilon, 0) since its inception is strictly due to poor treatment of comments
as 2nd class item in code.
