mircea_popescu: in fairness systemd was born sort-of like reddit was born : collecting all the scum frothing at the periphery of
a culture.
trinque: this internet thing is
a trip; cultures can go to complete shit faster than ever before
mircea_popescu: "I don't think that CoreOS registering systemd.pool.ntp.org is the best move. as to me it sounds like @poettering simply doesn't want any end-users to view systemd as some sort of
a product providing its own services and, (at least in the minds of some users), being assigned the responsibility for those services or start treating systemd as
a separate product, instead of it being an integral part of the distribution

a portable with non-ecc ram)

shinohai: You need
a blockchain torrent?
mircea_popescu: ascii_field kinda too lazy to figure out how you start
a torrent, and how the fuck am i going to serve 50gb dishes to the public ?
ascii_field: so, it is now possible to sync directly from
a sliced-up blkxxxxx dir
mircea_popescu: it doesn't matter what they say, if people use it as
a generic term that's that.
mircea_popescu: cazalla if it's ruled
a genericized term they lose the trademark.

a number of functions in it and stuff like that"
ag3nt_zer0: mircea_popescu: might you offer
a suggestion as to how to approach it in
a more forward manner?
ag3nt_zer0: mircea_popescu: but just becasue I do not consider it silly romanticism does not mean I could not be convinced if one were inclined to point out any inconsistencies in their thought... which is why I ask in this room... I suppose that if there were people able to help me peel back the layers
a bit further, or demonstrate to me my own silly romantic tendencies that lead me to think most of this thought is "true", they migh
ascii_field: ('cryptovote' is
a vastly overworked and tiresome subject in maths academia, for 20+yrs now)
ag3nt_zer0: interesting - have never heard of Mirandola referred to as
a core "traditionalist" writer - Guenon, Schuon, Evola, Burkhardt and others - but not Mirandola. From
a nothing read I can see
a similarity in their attempt to legitimize these modalities of thought but I read that his ideas were influential in renaissance humanism which guenon appears to be highly critical of... ?
midnightmagic: mircea_popescu: yeah, I know. I refuse to the signal the in-tribe, and that seems to be giving him
a reason to think I'm some kind of plant with an agenda. If he accepted the truth I think he'd calm down quite
a bit, although at this point he'd probably never believe it.

mircea_popescu: coupla monthgs ago i bought
a couple of thin wooden sticks from an art store. impulse buy, i just happened to be next to them.
funkenstein_: was linked here

funkenstein_: lol, definitely enough crack there to last
a lifetime
ag3nt_zer0: mircea_popescu: you had asked what the hell is the sophia perennis anyway... well,
a core and concise exposition of it can be found in more than
a few works - here is one that stands at 134 pages and I would really love to hear some thoughts on it if you get
a chance to sit down with it... if for no other reason than I struggle to find "holes" in it...

a bit of that around oregon

decimation: oh, here's
a c preprocessor macro to implement templates!!
mircea_popescu: in any case i regard the blkxxx scheme as
a hare brained, buggy slow and stupid reimplementation of
a filesystem in
a kernel that's trying to be an app.
ascii_field: (msdos, as we know, won't eat
a +2G fs - but doesn't give
a damn what you say to the disk controller. so roll your own.)
mircea_popescu: no fucking idea why it hasn't implemented
a from the get go incidentally.
mircea_popescu: honestly the only sane arrangement would be either
a) store each block as
a file, or else b) store blocks in arbitrary sized files, each starting at offsed 1Mb * block_count
mircea_popescu: ascii_field eh. proceeding from the other direction : not only is the need for
a bdb datastore directly indicative of allignment problems, but moreover its presence virtually guarantees them. so no, i don't think you can actually rely on "block after block" thing, but then again i can't be arsed to emacs

a major server doing all sorts of other things. it could not stand for five minutes if that were the problem.
mircea_popescu is trying to bootstrap the public interest in the matter into getting
a networking education for himself.
