mircea_popescu: just
this kindergarten level bar, "the server held no plaintext whatsoever".
mircea_popescu: i wouldn't mind
the dood who hacked off rsa from koch pgp and made a server
that just passed encrypted comms.
that's it.
mircea_popescu: except for
the one
that does, but a) is
too ineptly proud
to be here and b) nobody can possibly hear about him
through
the biofilm before he gets dooglus 'd out of
the market.
mircea_popescu: phuctor got seized and so what ? nobody messaged me
to ask if i'm a doctor.
mircea_popescu: i don't comprehend what
the "seizing of server" did for a pgp phone service.
mircea_popescu: lol
this is proof
that users are not jew-eligible for jew-marriage with
the "criminology phds" over at "dutch authorities" ?
mircea_popescu: phf you never commented on how dumb/palatable
the `tag:url
thing is
to your eye.
mircea_popescu: i remember very clearly who i am, and for very good reasons can't recall
that schmuck whatever his name was.
mircea_popescu: and
the fact
that conclaves of idiots and imbeciles, however you label
them, wired and wikipedia and etcetera won't gush about how "mp is famous about writing
the definitive work on "bazaar" style development" is simply an argument here, and no further consideration.
mircea_popescu: and in fact
the
term is deeply descriptive.
the result of
the approach is very strictly an open defecation field with some colorful plastic affixed
to randomly distributed, rotting wood poles.
mircea_popescu: so no --
the "bazaar" does NOT fucking work. not in
the slightest bit, not at all whatsoever.
mircea_popescu: kinda why i
took
the
trouble. it is exactly
the picture afaik.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform
this is exactly what
this is. we're making own by eating away
the dumbass snail at ant's pace.
mircea_popescu: meanwhile why
the fuck would i build on
the insanity of uncontrolled basis.
mircea_popescu: and
to preempt
the "why are you using
this" naive question : it is BY FAR, in its sorry state significantly worse
than described and likely worse
than couldf be described, STILL and BY VERY FAR way
the4 fuck better
than anything else out
there.
mircea_popescu: it's more likely
they had schooling
than it is
they had food.
mircea_popescu: evidently
the principal value of engineer school is
to
teach
the veal where he hasn't
the fucking liberty
to
tinker -- which is ALMOST EVERYWHERE.

think is
the right size, it crashes!111'
mircea_popescu: who
the fuck approves "threading"
to not do
threading with.
mircea_popescu: yes, but rather
than have an a-b-c
threaded
thing where if b dies a immediately follows, you might as well have a cleanner and neater abc.
mircea_popescu: but yes, it's roughly
the equivalent of "oh, you want
to have your monitor display your wedding pics correctly ? guess who's rewriting linux."
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform it's not merely graphics lib. does ~everything except
the actual game mechanics.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform i just can't grasp wtf is going on in
the rakim skulls.
mircea_popescu: i am vaguely amazed
they don't have a "special"
thread
to handle what x does anyway, ie kbd buffering./
mircea_popescu: which is ~safe, because
the os doesn't need help anyway.
mircea_popescu: so basically
they made a
thread
to "replace"
the work
the os does with
the
tcp stack, for instance.
mircea_popescu: a) none of
these are respawned if killed ; b) all of
these die within
the second if any dies ; c) none of
these are capable
to multispawn under load.
mircea_popescu: so, idiots made "threads" because hey,
they read on expert-sex-change
that
threads are better.
the server
thereby has a networking
thread, an event manager
thread, and a db
thread.
mircea_popescu: quite on point, let me
tell you about
this "threading" model minigame is currently battling with.
mircea_popescu: "a software engineer is
the person solving a problem you didn't know you had in a manner you don't understand."
mircea_popescu: happens
to me
to
this day. drives
teh girls up
the wall in angry shame, but i dun hold it against
them.
a111: Logged on 2017-10-09 07:02 mircea_popescu: earlier
today i heard from soem guy complaining about "how his job sucks", because he got moved
to a new projkect for 3rd
time past month, and it's such a waste because now he has
to reload whatever.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform
there's a
trivial case where
the observed property would be necessariyl
true, what.
mircea_popescu: well, if your detective work occurs in
the us advertising market...
mircea_popescu: "a boyscout is a kid dressed like an idiot under
the orders of an idiot dressed like a child."
mircea_popescu: "an architect is someone who wasn't man enough
to get an engineering degree, but also not gay enough
to go into fashion design."
mircea_popescu: also
there's not a huge crime rate driving "inseguridad", also
there's absolutely no market for uber, and so fucking following.
mircea_popescu: also
there's no "global warming" happening in orcistan, and also pedophiles didn't suddely become interested in highschoolers.
mircea_popescu: but for
the record,
the notion of "a full rack" WITHOUT a c block is laughable.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform ahahaha /29 Subnets ?! what
the fguck is wrong with
these people.
the dead dulap had a c block.
the dead other server idem. what
the fuck already.
mircea_popescu: romania never actually had a guild in
the sense seen now in
the us ; not even during
the ceausescu
times.
spyked: yeh,
this was re. scabs
mircea_popescu: ftr :
the "bus depot jokes" are not an equivalent here.
they are crass, which is
to say employ a certain drastic sort of romanian. but otherwise "balada pizdei" was written by
topirceanu, "povestea pulii" by creanga,
these are all "intellectuals" ie of
the literary canon.
mircea_popescu: spyked
trilema stands far outside
the following abilities of any single man! but yes, we eknow each other for years nao.
mircea_popescu: the brits are pretty lulzy with
their statist hallucinations aren't
they.
spyked: mircea_popescu, re comment, had no idea
this happened. I'll admit I haven't followed him (digested a few, such as
the "ma fut in ea de ploaie" piece), so will review.
mircea_popescu: phf it's good
that wired uses
https to protect its readers. for instance it protected me from reading or archiving it, which i estimate
to be a value add.
☟︎ spyked: mircea_popescu, will drop him a line when I have some
text
to show him (will ofcourse ask for your gracious feedback first)
mircea_popescu: he's perhaps
the best example in
this vein, even if not as well known as say MGM cartoon division.
