mircea_popescu: seems to me you've managed to work yourself into a hole.
mircea_popescu: not a matter of "well, when coming from out of town pizzeria is closer, whereas when going out of town trattoria is closer, so whatever, depending on how hungry i am i sit where it happens"
mircea_popescu: let's try different terminology : why would you want to be one of the dozen-or-so "apostles" of this pizzeria owner by the name melchisedec, if you believe the other jesus guy, in the trattoria down the street, is the true pastafarian in town ?!
mircea_popescu: danielpbarron you keep bringing it to this "involved". the discussion is not at the level of "being involved", as the lowest possible standard. the discussion is being part of the lordship, as the highest possible standard.
mircea_popescu: sorta like "well, i should diet, in principle. meanwhile, this profiterol is the only dessert that doesn't suck, so give me another" ?
mircea_popescu: so then the contention is essentially that your other religious notions are in the end irrelevant to you ?
mircea_popescu: i'm rather curious what goes on in your own mind, which is why i said i don't follow the logic. "i wanna be in the lordship though i don't think the republic makes sense". well ?!
mircea_popescu: i don't even know it's a requirement. for that matter, it's not clear how precisely the republic would even come to notice something as ridiculously trivial as whatever religious belief (unless i suppose you end up doing dumb shit "because of it", but even then, 0 difference between "religion" and "but then i got high" or w/e).
mircea_popescu: danielpbarron nevermind involved, that's not the topic. you say you want to be in the lordship, but that you disagree with the fundamental premises of the whole thing. well, how do you reconcile these ?
mircea_popescu: in fact, as the only sovereign, it is literally the superior node of god in general, and of any statement of divinity, whether it originates with some guy in rural oklahoma or rural canaan.
mircea_popescu: but i mean... it's not "build on biblical principles". nor is it going to be.
mircea_popescu: danielpbarron i'll confess trying to follow the logic of your articles fails here. do you even want to be in the lordship then ?
mircea_popescu: whatever, ima go have profiterols and lol at teh issues.
mircea_popescu: and i could keep on going in this manner, but the fact remains : the wooden sword cut no heads.
☟︎ mircea_popescu: gnu managed to drive directx into the ground, on the strength of naive if well meaning contributors, and then managed to give the advantage back to windows, and snatch defeat from the very jaws of victory, on the strength of imbecile management.
mircea_popescu: and in this like manner, that "pirate party" thing was even cool, for the negative time interval between when it was formed and when it was suborned.
mircea_popescu: sort-of like if cows were surgeons. before cow even started building operating room, the dung-carried bacteria'd be everywhere. because expensive for cow to be surgeon, and cheap for e coli to move along with flying dung.
☟︎ mircea_popescu: a ok then. whatever, the raccons not worth the buckshot at this point.
mircea_popescu: could these muppets be any more ridiculous through liberal application of deliberate effort ?

☟︎ mircea_popescu: there's two dead sites and a bitly link. why the fuck would you "bit.ly". unless, of course, you're nanotube, and your brain long ago ceased to work.
mircea_popescu: i don't even recall, rando hanger-on from the -otc days.
mircea_popescu: "It must by now be the experience of most people that computers develop hardware faults, and also that there are often software issues causing unexpected things to happen." << legal precedent in pantsuit lands nao :D
mircea_popescu: "A disclosure of information in respect of which a claim to legal professional privilege (or, in Scotland, to confidentiality as between client and professional legal adviser) could be maintained in legal proceedings is not a qualifying disclosure if it is made by a person to whom the information had been disclosed in the course of obtaining legal advice." << ie, your lawyer's receptionist dun count.
mircea_popescu: tl;dr : your company owns whatever information is left after any employee discloses whatever ~that employee~, in ~his own judgement~ deems ~might~ ber interesting to mother inca.
mircea_popescu: "Hoang also emailed associate ops director Darren James to say her personal phone "may potentially have some kind of breach as it has been acting peculiarly," telling the tribunal under cross-examination that "it was intuition" which led her to believe this."
mircea_popescu: i don't want that moron touching my food. restaurant is for subbie sluts anyway, who the fuck needs this item.
mircea_popescu: at least in clinton's day they made supernumerary lawyers, not supernumerary nothings.
mircea_popescu: as fucking if there's room for another adwords consultant in this world. someone's gonna pay for thius ?
mircea_popescu: you know what nicole's moronic age peers do for "schooling to better themselves in marketplace" ?
mircea_popescu: i suppose, by the above logic, 400 years ago she'd have asked the lord of the mannor, parish priest, and passing royal messenger "plox help, my cows udders seem to be growing, wut do, wut do". helluva milk maid.
mircea_popescu: femtards can code would like to know "what process to follow" when her windows laptop dun work.
☟︎ mircea_popescu: oh this is precious. "If it were just a one-off I wouldn't mention it... but if I do notice it happening again it would be good to know what process I should follow."
mircea_popescu: femtards, they got time and, sadly, a smattering of resources these days.
mircea_popescu: "rabbit births" only became a thing with diderot's idiocy.
mircea_popescu: im so fed up with the whole attention whore tech industry...
mircea_popescu: whatever, there's lots of these "could've, but didn't".
mircea_popescu: well, he was tech for the ~only exchange worth two shits, back in the early days. then that thing got subverted into aml crap, he bounced around a while, "transition phase" or w/e you'd call it, then he did the bitbet receivership and that was ~last anyone heard.
mircea_popescu: i imagine that'll be spyked's next thing, bot-driven vtrees mirror service.
☟︎ mircea_popescu: asciilifeform myeah. though in fairness, those corner cases rarely in the ffa or ffa-lite deployed.
mircea_popescu: (i gotta recall to say /vulˈpɛs/ to the man's face, see what he says)
mircea_popescu: (amusingly, he also pointed out to me that it's not de fun, it's funES!! he's spanish!)
mircea_popescu: we could also call a fox "da029c11e6b1" ; but instead we say vulpes vulpes for some reason.
mircea_popescu: wouldn't it be ~nice~ if you used some kind of sane naming convention ? trb.adding-ffa.alf ? something ?
mircea_popescu: i suppose in the end we can't end up worse off than with hashes or something.
mircea_popescu: and your preference is not groundless, and soon enough we'll be left with a messy patchwork of nonsense.
mircea_popescu: there's somewhere i explain the problem with small children, that they take a look at world around them, which creates a snapshot in their mind that's static, and then they fall over because they don't natively understand that just because the fulcrum's left side is up like the chair next to it is up, nevertheless, the load bearing capacity of the fulcrum is less than a percent of the chairs'.
mircea_popescu:
http://btcbase.org/log/2018-11-27#1875158 << this is rapidly becoming an (ill-specified) unsolvable problem. how the fuck is the program supposed to pick the word in the basket that "best goes with the rest of the novel" ? there's a fucking reason for naming conventions.
☝︎ mircea_popescu: check it out, the imperial process in full display. 1) introduce bugs ; 2) decade later turn them off ; 3) use md5 hashes for it all.
