apeloyee: but strictly speaking, if you just want mod-exp you don'
t need "an adder". you need operations "add X", doble and "subtract modulus"
mircea_popescu: wtf did that accountant or w/e do, "oh, i can find you a house mr bb, it just won'
t have any walls..." ?
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: And thus my increasing annoyance with the locals. They aren'
t ustards, but their slow speed to anything is grating.
apeloyee: and you think internals of 'ice' won'
t be switched?

BingoBoingo: <phf> heh "1992 vintage italian shoe. the sole i head to replace out of hand carved wood, but leather is literally like nothing you can get anymore!!1" << Old leather always is something you can'

shinohai: I don'
t expect drastically different results than from first pass, but never hurts to poke these things with a stick some.
phf: my grandfather (and his generation) spent their leisure time working on cars (also billiard and preferance). i can'

danielpbarron: furthermore, out of principal i shouldn'

shinohai: All the eucrypt stuff seemed to press fine with last changes you gave me mod6 btw, didn'
t know if you got the msg
mircea_popescu: mod6 i just meant that "rf" the utility doesn'

BigTexasBingo: This isn'
t Lafond presents Baltimore. Here the youth in trendy clothes yeild when the find themselves in my way.
BigTexasBingo: It isn'
t much leverage, but gets the next batch of girls for you while you have been flirting with other girls.
BigTexasBingo: Well, after leaving the mall it pings myself and the girlies I didn'
t notice to flirt with that we were in roughly the same place.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform didn'
t he get all ptsd after interacting with canadian academia, or am i conflating
BigTexasBingo: The earlier adventure wasn'
t just "say hi to my mom on vidya" so mom believes in the Gringo
mircea_popescu: the difference between linear and superlinear scams is that the former aren'
t actually "social reform movements".
mircea_popescu: "there's two kinds of scams : those who work on honest man, and those who don'
t. we call the later superlinear for reasons"
mircea_popescu: just putting it in teh plain that it works exactly opposite from most items, where it's rather "do it right so i don'
t have to have it redone"
a111: Logged on 2018-01-10 20:29 BigTexasBingo: Story later, but short is find a Dominican for language immersion and get introduced to the mother at a time I would call too soon if it wasn'
t how every chica seems to operate here
mircea_popescu: can'
t run around changing ~your~ v to match obscure config expectation of userbase ; high time userbase gets literate and walks out of the "i just wanted to" mindset.

mircea_popescu: "maybe taleb has been on a monster bender since 2014, hasn'

http://btcbase.org/log/2018-01-09#1767519 <<< o look, when the saudis "bought" that piece of shit it ... wasn'
t "corruption" and the saudi state very much does not need to take measure to eliminate the "corruption" of giving usg money. it's only when non-usg gets dough that the idiot neets need to stand up and herpderp on social media about "corruption" amirite ?
shinohai: I wasn'
t here for those lulz was still in heathendom
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform this is likely true ; certainly the latter sophist episode in greekworld gives much support to theory. greek advantage over original gypsies is just being small and so
T manageable.
knubie: lol, what doesn'
t cost these days.. >:)
shinohai: Finishing work costs extra, those rubber gloves ain'
t gonna buy themselves.
mircea_popescu: invade. The government doesn'
t tolerate this, it doesn'
t turn a blind eye towards it, it explicitly allows it. The only thing it forbids is billing for a service not performed (e.g. ghost patient.)" and all that.
BingoBoingo: Perhaps naggumed "self" after finding bug needing fix that handlers didn'
t want fixed? Threatened defection to Republic and all?
mircea_popescu: there was a time (not so long ago!) when EVERY mark was known by ~everyone ; and not knowing one was perceived as a subjective lack not as an objective deffect ; and the whole shebang paid well. today i couldn'
t even order more of "his stuff" if i wanted to, putting in question the very possibility of "his" in "his stuff" and moreover the justification of labour or economic activity generally.
phf: this is the first time i actually got to witness the entirety of the ritual (accidentally the cafe was in front of patch of grass, and i guess it was sufficiently cold that old ladies didn'
t want to go all the way to the park)
mircea_popescu: isn'
t that the weirdest shit ? good thing democracy gave 'em civil rights an' shit, i'd take scooping dogshit over subsistence hunting any day!!1
phf: on the lulzy side i can'
t get over american thing of keeping dogs and picking up their shit. i spent new years in upper east side, and was sitting at a small cafe one morning, watching these posh old ladies in expensive furs one after another scooping up little turds after their tiny beasts
phf: oh yeah india was pretty bad, there they don'
t have any use for dogs. though cats there fair even worse
mircea_popescu knew hunt dog grower who wouldn'
t even sell to noobs. "how am i supposed to get a dog ?" "first get some experience" "doing what" "hunting" "how am i going to do that without a dog ?"
mircea_popescu: mod6 yeah, they were protected in old country most places also, it was the #1 trimmer of noob hunters. "don'
t wait to see what you're shooting, get a falcon, spend 2 weekls explaining self to forest guard"
mod6: can'
t shoot those here.
mircea_popescu: "cultural management" discussed above is in this model the curation of permissible M overload on given Sn and the construction of G such that
T is maintained.
mircea_popescu: the interpretative theory (
T) states that for all possible strings there is at most one M per present S. those which have exactly 1 for all S are called well formed ; the rest malformed.
mircea_popescu: anyway, speaking of roman numeral systems, the dumbest thing about writing is that , doesn'
t come with a symmetric-comma.
shinohai: From today's trilema update "Bear in mind that it is deemed unethical within the Republic to write code if you haven'
t actually learned how to write it first, and that orcs' claims to have taught you something often turn out fraudulent upon examination."
ben_vulpes: also the notion that technical issues aren'
t business issues simply points to the coolie-nature of the typical cpp slave likely to read such pap. certainly not the case where i'm concerned; the quality of code and systems delivered and maintained are of the *utmost* concern to the biz.
mircea_popescu: anyway, i suspect this was at the time the true problem : jwz wanted to unicode the japanese way and rms didn'
t even understand what's being discussed (which -- major fucking failure for the role, incidentally).
mircea_popescu: (the whole nihongo affair may be interesting to the student of high functioning autist idiocy because it's to my knowledge the only documented case of japanese being incredibly fucking dense in the sense of "dumber for being smart than if you weren'
t smart at all")
mircea_popescu: phf also, the split didn'
t happen around 18.59, it happened around whatever the fuck it was, 18.10. there was a period when both lucid and fsf were releasing "newer" minor versions, skipping the other's.
mircea_popescu: i can accept that terminology ; above statement becomes "of fucking course lucid didn'
t want an inanimate object seated in the chair"
mircea_popescu: this is not nothing ; even if it isn'
t the something one'd like it to be.
mircea_popescu: nevertheless, i can'
t think of any project that actually thrived under his management. systemd tard pm'd circles around a decade's worth of collected rms effort in half a year.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform i expect the political divide is 100% xemacs will only accept merger INTO xemacs, which is to say, to get rid of rms, because he's useless / other camp can'
t get over "rms is useless".
mircea_popescu: eh nfi, lucid tried to make it a qt app. except qt didn'
t exist yet.
phf: "hey man i just drive this tank, i don'
t know what makes it work" ok then.
mircea_popescu: anyway, 1990s period /me "emacs is fucked, use vi, at least it's shorter and doesn'
t do anything" very much related to all this.
phf: i don'
t know if you've spent any significant amount of time with it, but i literally got tricked into installing xemacs first (cause x means it's gui yes?? 97 me)
phf: that's because you don'
t look under the hood
mircea_popescu: phf the only contentious portion none of the cucks addressed AT ALL is that lucid also wanted to take over. which may or may not be the right move, but utterly can'
t be "the one thing we don'
t talk about".
BingoBoingo: ben_vulpes: Just because there's far less of them here doesn'
t mean they have value
mircea_popescu: deep principled inspection! does it say "non pantsuit shouldn'
t be in position of power" ? FREEDOM OF SPEECH!!11 does it say non pantsuit things ? UNFORTUNATE FREE SPEECH FUNDAMENTALISM!!!!
shinohai: They have to give themselves fancy titles since they can'
t be a part of The Most Chauvinist Serene Order Of The Holes Gloriouses
mircea_popescu: other than obvious/glaring/cosmetic issues, this isn'
t even such a terrible idea ; though the properties of the conventional padding scheme are something you'd regret losing.
mircea_popescu: oh i see now i misspoke. i didn'
t mean prng, i meant prpng
a111: Logged on 2015-07-05 23:53 asciilifeform: or that other thread, which i can'
t seem to find, where we spoke of how 'maths wot is not essential for being published, but for even having publishable ideas instead of burning your life on fibonacci sequences or some other solved/irrelevant dead end'
shinohai: vpn doesn'
t have ability to run znc obviously
a111: Logged on 2018-01-04 14:53 asciilifeform: 'hardware isn'
t easy to build therefore couldn'
t possibly be necessary, the gods would not have made this level so hard, for me, the hero' or similar.
mircea_popescu: (and always remember kids -- what doesn'
t make you stronger, kills you.)
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform not practical, but the guy said "can'
t"!!1
BingoBoingo: Or the girlies aren'
t taking you on enough walks
