mircea_popescu: asciilifeform allow me to quote from the prophet moar!
mircea_popescu: that enough bar is necessarily higher in eastern societies, that aren't quite as fucktarded as anglotwerps, and so here we go.
mircea_popescu: islam is not specifically oppressive of women. it is merely opressive of INDIVIDUAL women enough so that the men may be persuaded to swallow socialism.
mircea_popescu: which goes right back to a much older thread re arabs and women and how it all works.
mircea_popescu: Do you not see that Allah knows whatever is in the heavens and whatever is in the earth? Nowhere is there a secret counsel between three persons but He is the fourth of them, nor (between) five but He is the sixth of them, nor less than that nor more but He is with them where ever they are; then He will inform them of what they did on the day of resurrection: surely Allah is Aware of all things.
mircea_popescu: ‹Ø«ÙŽØ©Ù إلاَّ Ù‡ÙÙˆÙŽ Ø±ÙŽØ§Ø¨ÙØ¹ÙÙ‡Ùمْ وَلاَ خَمْسَة٠إÙلاَّ Ù‡ÙÙˆÙŽ Ø³ÙŽØ§Ø¯ÙØ³ÙÙ‡Ùمْ وَلاَ أَدْنَى Ù…ÙÙ† ذَلÙÙƒÙŽ وَلاَ أَكْثَرَ Ø¥ÙÙ
mircea_popescu: Ù… أَلَمْ تَرَ Ø£ÙŽÙ†ÙŽÙ‘ اللَّهَ يَعْلَم٠مَا ÙÙÙŠ السَّمَاوَات٠وَمَا ÙÙÙŠ الْأَرْض٠مَا ÙŠÙŽÙƒÙون٠مÙÙ† نَّجْوَى ثَلاÙ
mircea_popescu: but this is not a matter of parties per se. it is not a matter of conviction, it is a matter of biology.
mircea_popescu: now im stuck reading another mile long pile of yarvinesque nonsense ? ;/
mircea_popescu: but... he speaks of minorities. minorities are not women. what's the logic ?
mircea_popescu: i don't see how this sawed off grenade made for the purpose of convincing kids not to make or use grenades you linked has anything at all to do with the bomb above, tbh.
mircea_popescu: anyway. to continue the thought - the usg and its ephemera are deeply and fundamentally antifeminist. they hate women as individuals and aim to exploit them as a mass. this is EXACTLY the situation of black people in the antebellum south : hated as individuals, exploited as a group.
mircea_popescu: for the same reason - army could have overthrown soviets, tech can overthrow soviets etc.
mircea_popescu: much like the 1st soviets would have said "have more politruk/comissars in the army", the 2nd soviets want more women, unspecified, in tech.
mircea_popescu: note that it is not said "have more WOMAN, as in, have more of the romanian chick at mit who wrote the ai guy's eulogy"
mircea_popescu: women, not in the sense of individuals but in the sense of the mass monster they constitute in aggregate, are always and everywhere in favour of the state and the statu quo.
mircea_popescu: which is why i put the question in asciilifeform , the is is actually thoroughly nailed down for this scope.
mircea_popescu: all "produces" reduce to "ought to", easier for people who comprehend enough physics to know time is not a thing, but even for more pedestrian minds.
mircea_popescu: "i do x because x OUGHT TO y" < wrong. non-thought. towards purpose.
mircea_popescu: "i do x because x IS y" < correct. thought. from cause.
mircea_popescu: more generally, and for extensibility & standardization purposes, the canonical form :
mircea_popescu: they end up baking in untested because unknown assumptions.
mircea_popescu: this is the problem with forward-looking attempts at thought.
mircea_popescu: "i do x because x produces y" is fundamentally THE forward-looking statement.
mircea_popescu: nevertheless, try an actual reasoning (ie, from causes) rather than a faux-fiatesque monstrosity (as to purposes)
mircea_popescu: once red hat can not also pay, for the printing press was smashed, then yes. not before.
mircea_popescu: if this thing is constructed on that process, we've therefore got nothing.
mircea_popescu: admire the cast iron heating element, and all the stale memes. my adolescence screaming from the dusts of time!
mircea_popescu: omfg. "users by lines, last 7 days 1.) asciilifeform 1490 2.) mircea_popescu 1276" << NOOOOOOOOO
mircea_popescu: roughly speaking the equivalent of a man who married a street whore, had a daughter with her somehow, and now that the girl's of age being almost 11and a half he is very fond of demonstrating to random passerbys in the street just how unlike her mother the youngun is, through the age old process of stuffing bills in her various articles of clothing as "see, she doesn't even take the stocks off!"
mircea_popescu: then the SOPS goons wanna wonder why people don't give a shit about their nonsense.
mircea_popescu: roughly speaking the equivalnt of a shelf of make-up in the workshop or "i wanna watch tv on my computor" sorta things. get a husband / get a tv set if that's what you're trying to do and get out of everyone's way.
mircea_popescu: it's really one of those things that should never have been.
mircea_popescu: i've been spending the ~week since the various selectatron discussions meditating on the problem. i do not believe javascript is rescuable. not withstanding all the effort derps put into it, javascript is fundamentally a broken idea that for this reason can never be useful.
☟︎ mircea_popescu: and speaking of "good things that ruin other good things", is it generally obvious to the esteemed b-a WHY the movement to "more women in tech", "more women in army", "more women in bla-bla" trends ? i thought it is, but then again maybe i'm the only one to whom it is.\
☟︎ mircea_popescu: d if it WERE addressable it'd just be shittier text. much like the uniform for a whore, some good things ruin other good things.
mircea_popescu: you may think that "hey, so you just found your solution, have the machine put a ¶ or a § before each paragraph and an anchor on it", but no. flat text is fundamentally different from ADRESSABLE text in general, the "paragraph-addressable" is a least-offensive kludge. and yes trilema is written deliberately, and constantly, with a view to breaking addressability from outside. because that's the sort of text it is, an
mircea_popescu: fortunately btcbase does not actually need it as much as flat text. (there's a difference between text that's line-addressable and text that's paragraph-addressable.)
mircea_popescu: so goes my faint, if generous but doomed attempt to rescue javascript.
mircea_popescu: from what i hear lisp is "already standardized". i personally am not terribly persuaded by this claim, but will entertain it on a technical basis as the cases may come. who knows, maybe gabriel was right and it is.
☟︎ mircea_popescu:
http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=28-02-2016#1417192 <<< current shiva is two steps away from even ~beginning~ the process of standardization. people with lisp experience will supply common but ultimately inconsequential conventions (hyphens plox!), but in general speaking, shiva's usage and lisp's general lack of practical usage or utility means that our work here will actually standardize LISP just as much as bitco
☝︎☟︎ mircea_popescu: ing parts than replacing by conceptual unit, which is why it's more apt to be contemplated) and will soon overwhelm any "easier" benefits early on.
mircea_popescu:
http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=28-02-2016#1417175 << i support this. the problem with the "easier" approach of "we don't cut whole parts but arbitrary fragments" is that now you not only baked in the fragmentator, which becomes one of your dependencies, but also have to keep track of arbitrary fragments, which are numerous (this is why replacing one file at a time, while dubious, is at least not involving MORE mov
☝︎ mircea_popescu: Оборонно-массовая и патриотическая работа, ie what the whores (see То знай: за честь должна считать Знакомство юнкерского хуя!) and their litter does.
☟︎ mircea_popescu: phf> i think ascii short term plan is specifically rewrite of rpc, because it's an easily achievable low hanging fruit, which when done completely will let us get rid of json/
http << quite.
☟︎ mircea_popescu: by 2020 or so, if i do at least 10-20k a day, we might be caught up
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo i guess i'm just going to add "this is good for fiat" comments from now on.
mircea_popescu: lol. may be a long while, eulora took the crown for "most broken republican codebase" sometime this year i think
mircea_popescu: guy's actually pretty good, found/fixed small cracks in the wiki etc
mircea_popescu: sometimes i suspect i might be the most tolerant of women fellow that ever lived or something.
