mircea_popescu: but think about it. suppose i loan you one of my slavegirls, and you bring her back, except you bring me back a different woman.
mircea_popescu: ben_vulpes but none of these are the core of the matter. suppose you buy one, and i give you another.
mircea_popescu: mkay, let's take something else. why does buying a russian bride online suck ?
mircea_popescu: <ben_vulpes> did anyone ever do a static compilation libkez? << there's room for one.
☟︎ mircea_popescu: Killing Awlaki unfortunately did not prevent his propaganda from influencing the minds of people who killed innocent people after he was gone. "
mircea_popescu: polarbeard "I'd get it one piece at a time. And it wouldn't cost me a dime..."
mircea_popescu: which is why "well breed" old guard products don't usually carry much value with the treason that just prospered.
mircea_popescu: but generally, as an aspiring young lord, you don't have either the time or the resources to spend any time or resources with any women that would settle for anything but the best they can possibly get.
mircea_popescu: yeah. the requisite behaviour of the wife of the king.
mircea_popescu: ie, "i say whore because she won't fuck me" vs "i say whore because whatevs"
mircea_popescu: i see it lots with online hos, you'd think that if you got easy money once, you'd never leave that place. but not so if you KNOW you're not worth anyone's time, deep down.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform i personally don't. there's a common disease of whores (and no, programmers aren't fundamentally anything else). it manifests like so : should a wolf find a delicious morsel, it will neglect it oft to the point of just letting it sit while it draws a perimeter around and inspects for whence it came for and MOAR. meanwhile, a mouse that found a morsel will grab it and run, never to return.
mircea_popescu: nevertheless, these must be decisions people take for themselves.
mircea_popescu: "she would never take a left on west 83rd at 6pm on a tuesday. i know this on the basis of her $word starwars."
mircea_popescu: "we both say $word about heavily advertised meaningless franchise". hurr.
mircea_popescu: but the list of things he presents is enough to deduce they have nothing in common.
mircea_popescu: "About a week ago, this pretty girl messages me out of the blue and we hit it off. We talked that night up until 5 AM and we have so much things in common. > She loves Star Wars > Plays video games > All other super nerdy shit > Never met a girl like that" << holy shit, this "all that much" evaluates to almost 0. wtf is wrong with people.
☟︎ mircea_popescu: phf i dunno man, i've been trying to unravel in my head what the issue is/was, can't say i've got very far. the only thing i can say is please, insist.
☟︎ mircea_popescu: anyway, do i get the impression you got the impression your patches aren't welcome or something ?
mircea_popescu: in random good unix news : shuf -n 1 $file will pop out a random line from that file.
mircea_popescu: lol derp, "this thing that happened shows that this thing i presume is correct because reasons so ergo!"
mircea_popescu: suppose you think about what you wanna say, say it, and then let it be ?
mircea_popescu: and if you write "shoez rulez" today and then change it to "shoez sux srsly" next week, people's idea of your idea of shoes also breaks.
mircea_popescu: and references break if guy goes back and adds pages in the middle of his book wtf.
mircea_popescu: ben_vulpes the gf-nordstorm graph is pretty cool, you made it ?
mircea_popescu: which is why nobody uses datadir, because wtf you do with munged 200kb logfiles.
☟︎ mircea_popescu: "never go to sea with two clocks. take one or three. so we're taking two but one has a special button to press to ask it if it's really sure. if it is it squaks audibly."
☟︎ mircea_popescu: seriously, MEDIAN ? seriously, this is three ? fuck me.
mircea_popescu: "// "Never go to sea with two chronometers; take one or three." Our three time sources are: System clock ; Median of other nodes's clocks ; The user (asking the user to fix the system clock if the first two disagree)"
mircea_popescu: and so if it can\t find 200k contiguos this actually fucking crashes ?
☟︎☟︎ mircea_popescu: incidentally, if something like char pch[200000]; is inside an if, what does the compiler usually do ? allocate it at program start or not ?
☟︎ mircea_popescu: fwiw i have a lot more faith in code someone read than in code someone wrote.
mircea_popescu: polarbeard you'll still have to sign it. there's no way out of this.
mircea_popescu: to put it in you'll have to sign it. if it turns out later to have a hole, people will negrate you.
☟︎ mircea_popescu: asciilifeform nothing converges if the path to convergence is expensive.
mircea_popescu: understand mod6 : the thing that scared me above isnm't per se the fact that now we need 4, but that well... it grew. might be we're sitting on some unbounded complexity / a loose recursion tail.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform so you added tinyscheme to have sexpr rather than json, and now you telnet into scheme ?
mircea_popescu: mod6 in the end we'll need a v thread for the source, one for the manual, one for linux make one for bsd make etc ? like 4 ?
mircea_popescu: but riddle me this : how does user know his openbsd make process isn't satan's own ?
mircea_popescu: so basically my tentative takeaway here is that we'll mostly try to maintain broad linux-compatibility and try and help interested parties keep the wheels oiled and turning on stuff like bsd.
