I be looking at ada 2012 flavour?
a111: Logged on 2019-02-05 14:37 asciilifeform: diana_coman: fwiw
i didn't end up on 2012 blindly, actually walked the feature ladder and consciously picked.

i guess ima put this in the report, "lost cto to binge reading ancient html site"
mircea_popescu: this doesn't map directly, but if diana_coman were a noob that'd be the time
i'd be like, "btw guise..."
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform:
I suspect it would do you well to carve out some time this week or next to take in the tract on America. The off season devolution models this very much and can't fairly be summarized.
mircea_popescu:
i dunno what that was, very livresque reference to elliott, the whole foot thing.

I'm in AT&T Hall of Fame
BingoBoingo: <asciilifeform> also tru.
i have nfi for instance re whether e.g. Framedragger , halted << iirc hooked on socialism?

i have quite a few items in own notebook similar to yours, from decade+ ago. lemme guess, were you stuck on uninhabited island ?

i highly recommend it, right now you're in approx the position of that random fella who sat down in a cargo plane and took off on a lark
phf: it feels more sophisticated with an "
i" in there
lobbes_field: Fwiw when
I first started reading logs/trilema in 2014,
I alternated between lost/confused/disturbed/intrigued. Then
I stopped reading entirely for almost 6 months. Then finally it "hit me like a shit ton of bricks (tm)" and
I realized
I -had- to start doing (
i.e. there was no choice if
I wanted to actually make a mark on the world)
mircea_popescu: but still, by the time the one important thing, important to the exclusion of all others, was NEVER mentioned... something's wrong.
i mean, just like
http://trilema.com/2018/the-republic-without-mp/ except in the flavbour of... the republic without republic ? what possible sense does this make ?
mircea_popescu:
i happen to prefer excluding hard and early, but it's entirely my business, not some kind of universal model.
lobbes_field: asciilifeform
I did rate, but away from any keys atm
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform
i honestly don't think poor success rates with clinically relevant levels of self absorbed morons is necessarily something you'd be too worried about.
mircea_popescu: but anyway, on the other lobe, if it does make a difference
i will declare that
i'm absolutely not wilfully persecuting alf descendants.
mircea_popescu:
i don't even see the problem with this. though
i must confess midly curious as to why it manages to occupy your time.
mircea_popescu: so, ultimately, the logic here goes thusly : 1) of all the parts of living animal,
i choose spleen to be defined as "only relevant part", arbitrarily. because
i really like spleens and
i don't really understand anything besides them nor do
i wish to or see why
i should have to ;
mircea_popescu: education is this process whereby people are sharpened, not changed. if girl has it in her to outwrite your ffa, she conceivably will, and if not, she will not. why's this something
i'm to fret about ?
a111: Logged on 2018-09-19 16:22 mircea_popescu: think of the whole opposability angle, will you. 1. alf : "your summaries suck" 2. bimbo "master, is this true ?" now
i'm stuck.
i'm not going to do a 3.b. "yes, because
i like him" and
i can't do a 3.a. "yes, because ~SOMETHING~" as the something's an undefined symbol.
mircea_popescu: in the sense of, "the only surviving island of non-(engineeridiocy) is this here harem, and further, as part and parcel of my continued and systematic efforts to ensure failure, not only do
i perceive this as a substantial lack of everyone else, but instead
i'll propose that taking a sufficiently narrow view of the matter, it could almost be said the lacking parts don't even exist" ?
mircea_popescu: educable as in positive delta over time, not educable as in, reaches ishtar gate before
i get bored waiting.
mircea_popescu: eventually you have to compare the marginal gain from "1 of maybe coupla thou noobs with working hands alive" with the marginal cost from "if
i read one more redditline in the tmsr log ima tune it out".

I must admit
I fail to see *what* did the guy actually contribute; moreover he asked as far as
I can see signalling questions, nothing more; granted, they were related to Ada but that's about the only positive
I can find in the whole log
I had to go through; perhaps it's simply too early for him to be here? maybe first have something done and only then come and show it?
mircea_popescu:
http://btcbase.org/log/2019-02-05#1892739 << this is no small matter ;
i ~expect~ a number of my own slaves to read each and every fucking line of this here log. it "takes nothing" to read a line until you start multiplying the lines and the readers. but what choice do they have, right, they're my slaves, if
i order them that's an end to the matter.
☝︎ mircea_popescu: hey phf ben_vulpes and,
i guess Framedragger : can
i prevail upon you to have (just one) logotron recognize [url][anchor] syntax and render it as <a href=url>anchor</a> instead of the literal ?
a111: Logged on 2018-11-30 04:52 mircea_popescu: next shit out of your dumb mouth fails to string match apologizing for being quite so fucking stupid,
i'ma fix the negligence whereby you can still speak here.
mircea_popescu: #trilema is the forum of the most serene republic, not "an irc channel" or whatever other
http://btcbase.org/log/2018-11-03#1869074 -bred nonsense / "consumers have come to expect", and
i don't give shit one whether the yokels think they have or think they haven't one in "their" town.
☝︎ deedbot: lobbes rated lobbes_field 1 << my handle for when
I'm in the $saltmines
diana_coman: well,
I really started with 2005 but then
I had to upgrade, hence my "
I need". It's not blindly,no.
diana_coman: and at any rate if it needs stating:
I'm talking for myself here, not for mircea_popescu
diana_coman: asciilifeform, mno; quite sure we already had this thread already though so
I'll let it rest
diana_coman: not suggesting there might not be other cases or anything but so far that's what
I see
a111: Logged on 2019-02-05 01:40 verisimilitude: Let's seque to a related topic: What do you think of the Suckless crowd, asciilifeform?
I read their mailing list and it's interesting to see how everything UNIX already provides is good and natural and how anything that violates the sacred tenants whatsoever is evil and bloat.
diana_coman: asciilifeform,
I must admit
I fail to see *what* did the guy actually contribute; moreover he asked as far as
I can see signalling questions, nothing more; granted, they were related to Ada but that's about the only positive

☟︎ verisimilitude:
I'm looking through more of these Ada links you provided earlier, asciilifeform; do you not use Ada 2012?

i wonder if lobbes has a portal where
i can feed, say, 2k urls for archival?
