decimation: 100 years ago people who owned
a house could also afford at least one or two servants to help with childcare/home
williamdunne: pete_dushenski: Not yet convinced, while he is responsible I do think there must have been
a malicious third party involved which I suspect to be the USG
pete_dushenski: asciilifeform: it's
a contagious condition, this eyes closing = tikkun olam shtick
williamdunne: Latest board resolution contains
a line similar to the one in
a couple of MPEX contracts that goes along the lines of "The company deems this contract valid, regardless of the opinion or declaration of any person, regardless of what title that they may choose to fashion themselves with" lol
☟︎ BingoBoingo: pete_dushenski: Not
a useful one, and it would be poor form to expose it if it was.
williamdunne: Reaching into the pocket his audio cable was coming from was
a clear display of threat
pete_dushenski:
a channer would've brought up details about an article... in chan.

a thread to pull on from his nebulous ball of rastayarn.

a guy in HS that had comparable encyclopedic knowledge of porn stars
assbot: Logged on 03-06-2015 04:39:24; asciilifeform: BingoBoingo: this is the reason you can't buy so much as
a square metre in, e.g., patagonia. that is, if you and i can afford it, ted turner can afford 1,000,000+ of it and at 1000x bid
trinque: looks like
a great place to live; I can't imagine why
trinque: chick's got
a great expression there
williamdunne: On
a similar note, just got tipped 0.3 BTC on reddit
mircea_popescu: just... fucking usg numbers. they make as much sense as
a pancake rabbit with
a peanut on its head
mircea_popescu: e entered Congress in 1987 with
a net worth of no more than $270,000 and then exited worth somewhere between $4 million and $17 million [...] alleged, unspecified “past misconduct” against an unnamed person to whom he agreed to pay $3.5 million to keep concealed.
BingoBoingo: The extent of the lymphatic system has always been
a bit nebulous because it tends to deflate more destructively in the un-alive. Still since most people manage to go through life without hydrocephalus it can be assumed to interact with the CNS.
decimation: "In the indictment, the DOJ made the decision not to expressly specify the ?past misconduct? Hastert sought to conceal. Nonetheless, federal law enforcement officials apparently spent the day running around leaking to media outlets what the indictment worked hard to insinuate: that ?Hastert paid
a man to conceal sexual misconduct while the man was
a student at the high school where Hastert taught.? "
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo read the piece, it's like kindergartners wrote it. not
a single fact in there.

a previously discussed #b-

BingoBoingo: "As for your opinion that they have
a ‘right’ to safely meet, I disagree. I do not believe in rights.
A right is
a privilege that is enforced by
a violent third party action. Rights are by definition cowardice as social artifice. "
http://www.jameslafond.com/article.php?id=1974&pr=0 << Tis like
a Traimatic brain injury MP
BingoBoingo: <asciilifeform> srsly one can't take so much as
a shit without some 'coder' building
a 'career' on it << Coders are like asparagus in this way. They love their easy nitrogen and phosphorous
mircea_popescu: let's stick to considering things that have
a shot at making sense.
mircea_popescu: practically, this might put
a dent in dice type services, in the sense that it'd slow them down by ~10 minutes
mod6: B is recieved before
A, so B is 'orphan'
mod6: so [A_tx]<-[B_tx] are both sent
mod6: more over, is there
a "normal" situation that arises where
a guy is trying to create
a transaction and it becomes an orphan? his system time is off? many things i suppose...
mod6: asciilifeform: ok. i'll have to think on that
a bit more. i wanna be sure of what these changes imply. anyway,
a guy can always patch his own if he wishes in the mean time.
mod6: yeah, i think just in here, we can discuss. be better for me to spend
a bit of time thinking about it for
a day or two.. sometime this week maybe.
mod6: <+asciilifeform> mircea_popescu: and must nitpick, but it isn't the current therealbitcoin yet. not until patches are ratified. << we'll get there. I'd like to have
a discussion at some point about the possible negitive effects of at least the TX Orphanage Amputation patch.
mircea_popescu: i do not think i have seen
a full sync with 0 pagefaults yuet
mod6: BingoBoingo: eh, i think it was about the same, just
a minute about to create charts and push to web.
thestringpuller: ascii_field: maybe it's
a well kept secret. asciilifeform master artist, with some pseudonym none of us know.
trinque: thestringpuller: my dell inspiron waffle iron was on purpose, fell
a couple stories
trinque: nah my gameboy did alright, but I've shattered
a few game controllers
thestringpuller: trinque: you were that kid who managed to break
a gameboy weren't you?
trinque: yeah, their strategy seems to be make something fragile, call it
a tool, laugh arse off when the customer realizes it's not
ascii_field: thestringpuller: 'fill out PO's until they find one they like' in my case resulted in
a mountain of garbage
trinque: was
a retina mac, and I dropped it and smashed the shit out of the screen
trinque: ascii_field: wasted way too much time getting
a gentoo tuned on
a mac
trinque: and I'd be happy to replace it with something that was basically
a terminal emulator with
a nic

a usable laptop is (or was) sold by apple

a winblows box just to edit

trinque: mircea_popescu: may have been the first time I encountered
a lispy thing in the wild
mircea_popescu: trinque imagine my surprise when i discovered that gimp actually uses scheme as
a scripting language.
ascii_field: 'random' in the strict sense of -not- being
a product of carefully selected long primes p and q passing various tests
trinque: I have
a vague inkling that CLOS can be used for things I use RDBMS for, but I am not there yet
thestringpuller: trinque: yup. Puppet did an "okay" job of managing the config scheme among multiple machines in
a single environment.
trinque: course it runs into every problem anyone ever made
a terrible XML thing for
thestringpuller: ah. well even on
a lower level, like for instance going from
a local Apache instance (running on iface 127.0.0.1) then running it on prod.
trinque: thestringpuller: "show me all the config items which make reference to
a hostname"
trinque: thestringpuller: needs something with
a declared schema, referential integrity, other fancy things from rdbms land
thestringpuller: docker does this in
a way similar to floppy drive press enter to boot kinda deal
trinque: amounts to building
a pillow fort in your living room
thestringpuller: the security theatre part is
a nuclear bomb waiting to go off.
trinque: but it's actually several features of
a sane *operating-system, not some bolt-on to linux
trinque: thestringpuller: he's actually
a local buddy of mine; we've chewed on that one
a couple times
mircea_popescu has
a lengthy bin of "must have" stuff he successfully waited out.

a piece of siht
thestringpuller: davout: you heard Fat Zuckerberg! Paymium is
a disaster waiting to happen!
