mircea_popescu: asciilifeform both salient points (the multi-try mod ;
the divide powers of
two by p) were part of a larger discussion where you defended
tooth and nail
teh impossibility!
mircea_popescu: sounds like
the whole discussion coupla weeks ago actually found its way into actual practice.
mircea_popescu: i don't
think it can be put into words, how much of
the whole "poor people need help"
the pay-for-your-tits disabused in my mind.
mircea_popescu: there's half a billion of
them, and what, one a year manages
to find her way
to a hundy ?
shinohai: If I made
that offer on some South-American camslut site, it wouldn't last a week.
mircea_popescu: an honest man, he is ; actually functional in any proper sense,
they aren't.
mircea_popescu: i don't expect
they can fly in
this. eagle isn't a swallow.
mircea_popescu: these pair of eagles came
to say good morning erry day, nowehre
to be seen
this morn.
mircea_popescu: the avian biodiversidad is pretty fucking sad looking, i'll
tell you
that.
shinohai: mircea_popescu should hold kite-flying contest amongst
the slaves. Winner is girl who can keep kite aloft for 2+ minutes using only erect nipples.
mircea_popescu: aaand in other "global warming" lulz, costa rica has been beset by an... anti-tropical storm, with
temperatures 10 degrees below period averages and winds in
the 50kph+ range since yest.
mircea_popescu: experience is a valuable
teacher absent for most experts.
mircea_popescu: and a lot of redditors would be surprised at how bouncy
tits are.
mircea_popescu: hy not advertise honestly? Nonprofits are allowed a 3% management fee so VC firms can still afford disgusting salaries and daily crudité delivery. Maybe
that decreases
the likelihood
that endowments and pension funds allocate assets
to Silicon Valley, but LPs allocate less
than 0.5% of
their funds
to
this subset of private equity anyway. Venture capital is already a
tax writeoff." << check out who gets how
the whole pile of
mircea_popescu: "Venture capital isn’t an asset class, it’s a system
to
transfer wealth from state pension funds into
the pockets of general partners. Some of
the wealth moves into
the pockets of kids working on new
technology.
This part is important, because
that
technology can have a moonshot chance of improving
the world. Someone’s gotta fund moonshots, and it’s not gonna be banks. Venture capital,
then, is a charitable service. W
trinque: mircea_popescu: get it out for ya
tomorrow with a fresh brain; about
to retire for
the night
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform whatever, "investors displeased with key figures" if you prefer
the in-universe formulation
trinque: this urgent, or can wait
til
tomorrow?
a111: Logged on 2017-10-05 04:03 mircea_popescu: in other great news, looks like
the politruks got
together, decided
they really only have
the office space for one of
the
two, and axed
twitter.
BingoBoingo: I wonder how pissed average USian would be if
they learned large chunks of
the world gets 6%+ economic growth sustained over decades
mircea_popescu: but i'll lol, which is comparatively
the larger part anyway.
mircea_popescu: nor will
they ever raise
the acumen
to confront
the plain reality of how
they ~should~
BingoBoingo: Hey, walmart is moving
to online strategy of "Amazon 3rd party reseller market" but shittier website
mircea_popescu: all
the fucktards going around wikipediaing for
the past decade won't chase me around so i step on
their worthless bodies instead of
the pavement, of course.
mircea_popescu: not only for
the direct reason, but for
the implicit hope
that maybe... wikipedia follows suit ?
mircea_popescu: moving
towards "advertising agency" in desperation is perhaps
the lulziest fiat conceit yet.
mircea_popescu: in other great news, looks like
the politruks got

☟︎ mircea_popescu: asciilifeform character in
true romance.
thinks he's black.
a111: Logged on 2016-04-08 22:17 mircea_popescu:
this guy,
thinks he's a nigger. got a bad scar and missing eye.
mircea_popescu: kinda why any serious graduate programs in
the us should include 6 months assbatical, spent
twinking for drexl in baltimore.
mircea_popescu: the high level "fuck you, i own
this world and everything in it and you will either adapt or fucking die, bitch" is... not really accessible, mentally,
to kids with college degrees.
trinque: evolutionary
thing, where various parts of
the problem bit
them,
then
they adapted what
they had.
mircea_popescu: by
the same angular measure,
they
tried
to nearly not be v.
trinque: which, gentoo musl overlay is a git repo somewhere. whole
thing would have
to be repo'd for cuntoo
trinque: primary difference is leaning on
the "layman"
thing
to maintain a
tree of patched ebuilds
mod6: This will be quite awesome. "Here lies mod6. emerge
trb" it will say.
trinque: why not use an ebuild
to build instead of "stator"
mod6: yeah, i
think emerge a
trb would be
the
ticket, no?
trinque: whole point is
to have
total control over
the OS
trinque: why not just ebuild,
there
mod6: anyway, yeah, someday we'll get away from
this wad.
mod6: oh,.. i see what you might be getting at. buildroot doesn't come with it because yadda yadda, no kernel needs
that
to unroll.
mod6: seems
to be
two seperate
things.
mod6: i don't
think
that because
they used
to bundle up
the kernel as a bzip2
that means
that average orc-os wouldn't have
that
tool set in
the default userland,.
mod6: it looks
to me
that ya, buildroot needs it.
mircea_popescu: da fuck i care about
the extra... what is it, mb ? i got a 200gb blockchain ffs.
mod6: oh for
them? yeah, i dunno.
mircea_popescu: prolly cheaper
to re-package
the damned
thing as a
tar
than
to bake in bzip2 dependencies
mod6: i dunno. for whatever reason her OS didn't have
those
tools ahead of
time.
mircea_popescu: why is
this required
though ? is it just because random idiots decided
they need a SPECIAL rar for
their ever so special code farts ?
mod6: I believe
the package
that is required is 'bzip2'.
mod6: diana_coman, asciilifeform, mircea_popescu, ben_vulpes, et. al. ok
TRB HowTo updated with 'bzip2
tools [including bzcat]'/
