mircea_popescu: considering the alternative is reading the logs, 200mn might not even be a bad deal.
mircea_popescu: i can't see how ? prolly should put a notice to bid in the right place ?
mircea_popescu: ahaha bidding on own auction ? i gotta import this in eulora totally.
mircea_popescu: and yes, the concept of multiple "channels" is entirely user-powered, you can make lists of the people you listen to any way you want.
mircea_popescu: trinque> seems the voice model pairs with gossipd rather well, where voicing is a matter of message forwarding rules << it doesn't even pair, it IS it. substance of the universe, not even protocol.
mircea_popescu: ah. yeah you would. i don't think they can maintain ircd loose network and have it do that.
mircea_popescu: phf you can ghost arbitrary nick no matter what you'rte called.
mircea_popescu: seems to me xor is just as un-immediately defined on abstract types.
mircea_popescu: more importantly, if there's no assumption of machine register underlying, how exactly is it that they can always xor but only sometimes mod ?
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform so how is this wonder of a mod defined so it works on vectors ?
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform basically they lazily decided "even" is to be tested by "mod", which is unacceptable if they're going to make mod randomly unavailable ; seeing how there are purely bit-logical ways to test for even-ness.
mircea_popescu: "and, in addition, a call of a Boolean logical operator and, or, xor, not whose operands are such static predicate expressions, and, a static predicate expression in parentheses." << right there. a xor maxint-1 > 0
mircea_popescu: "So we see that the predicate in the subtype Even cannot be a static predicate because the operator mod is not permitted with the current instance. But mod could be used in an inner static expression."
mircea_popescu: which reminds me of my indignation in 9th grade. THERE ARE TWO COMPLEX CONJUGATES!!11
mircea_popescu: wasn't by any means a practical consideration. more of a "thinking about the compiler of the wetware future"
mircea_popescu: i can't write sentences with a count at the end saying how many times you have to read them until you get them.
mircea_popescu: a more general and unrelated problem : why should the specific number of compiler passes be set down in the standard ?
mircea_popescu: seems altogether easier for you to not shit where you stand than for us to create a new reality.
mircea_popescu: now i understand why you expect the foundries to cost billionz! you're outsourcing!
mircea_popescu: and if it's a shitty analogy blame yourself - you brought it in!
mircea_popescu: "as long as these are securely fastened, an absolute guarantee to no pants shitting can be offered by manufacturer". and yes i used such thjings, but for very peculiar purposes.
mircea_popescu: do you propose "not shit where yo ustand" should be a property of earth and standing ?
mircea_popescu: the problem is that it being unbounded, it can't really be hardware.
mircea_popescu: poorest village public toilet still had water implement in working condition.
mircea_popescu: and fwiw most arabs'd be horrified at the notion of not actually washing bunghole after defecation.
mircea_popescu: your idea of basic hygiene differs from the medieval french only in form, not in substance.
mircea_popescu: "all of the same checks, and more, in hardware". what now ? miner core in every cpu, to check for primality ?
mircea_popescu: hey. is it a thing or is it not a thing! stop giving me jam!
mircea_popescu: and yeah, i get the "doc it hurts when i do this" "so don't do it then" thing. but ...
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform> [...] you can declare a variable, where, say, assigning a prime number to it is an error condition in the runtime. which means, yes, a check on EVERY assignment. <<< now imagine the converse type :D
mircea_popescu: if idiocy screamed in the forest where there's no alf the bee-dog to hear it,
mircea_popescu: and yes, the more i hear about ada the more i like it, or properly speaking the more it sounds like right thing.
mircea_popescu: and it is good that the good tools, derived from 1st, get some battle experience.
mircea_popescu: consider what i'm actually saying : it's one thing to solve correctly a well defined problem ; it is another thing to solve well a nebulous one.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform that is utterly besides the point, isn't it ? most well made statues were kept in temples, in the dark, untouched and unseen. this doesn't mean they had ergonomic spoons in mass production!
mircea_popescu: but oh, no, "you gotta make this hacky flagging scheme to show us what to paralellize!"
mircea_popescu: and srsly, what, it's my job to tell the processor how to process ? that's why it's a processor, let it process!
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform were you gonna explain how the grocery thing relates ?
mircea_popescu: phf fwiw i believe "threads" are a miserable kludge, so i can see the angle.
mircea_popescu: brits had a very similar problem, "our tank is very well made" "how does it do in the sand ?" "WHAT?!?!?!"
mircea_popescu: without importing all the battlefield lulz on the topic : it is rather important for lisp to be used in ACTUAL applications, as opposed to conceptual.
mircea_popescu: let's also put this in teh record "S.MPOE": {"1d": {"avg": "50504.3351821","min": "50143","max": "51211","vsh": "437407","vsa": "22090949739","cnt": "15"}, "7d": {"avg": "49898.0738545","min": "49008","max": "51211","vsh": "1288832","vsa": "64310234322","cnt": "95"}, "30d": {"avg": "49515.8488864","min": "41707","max": "53882","vsh": "22173235","vsa": "1097926553583","cnt": "1517"}}
mircea_popescu: possibly might be an idea to eschew counting references to a log line made by the same author ?
mircea_popescu: did a woman you cared about ever manage to get a satisfyingly loud and wet quarrel witcha ?
