a warning
trinque: just something you see in translations, not that
a NY company's manual would be
mircea_popescu: wever, it is always to be avoided to use numbers as instructions. Since an instruction word is indistinguishable from
a number word, some means must be provided to avoid using numbers as instructions. How this is accomplished is described under "BUILDING
A PROGRAM". Also, how we convert from
a 2000 to the binary representation shown is discussed later."
mircea_popescu: "The computer has no way of knowing by examining the word itself, whether
a word is intended as
a number or an instruction. Under most circumstances it is the numbers which are operated on and the instructions which are followed as instruction. The LGP-30 has the ability to operate on instructions as numbers. This ability is not only valuable but
a feature which makes for the great power of stored program computers. Ho
mircea_popescu: punkman the best way to test that sort of thing is on
a local testnet with low diff.
mircea_popescu: as opposed to, whole thing occured to him this morning as he was sitting on shitter and contemplating what
a laughingstock he is
nubbins`: "i am so rich that 5000 btc is
a mere pittance, but
a bunch of forum scamzors will have to collectively shell out ~$10k in airfare in order to unravel the mystery"
mircea_popescu: t clue you will need to posses and have all 10 coins in the same physical location. The clues in the coins were crafted in
a fashion that you will never find them let alone figure them out via photographs, with x-rays, or in any fashion other than having all the coins in the same location at the same time to solve the puzzle."
mircea_popescu: "I have made and sold 9 2015 wooden physical bitcoins listed below. Each one of those coins has hidden in or on it
a part of the puzzle. The key to decoding the first part of that puzzle is coin #10 which after much though is being given to someone whom i already chose from this forum. In order to decode each individual wooden coin you will have to have #10 in its physical presence and in order to solve the entire firs
nubbins`: forged in
a time when men were men and haters left wood carvers alone
nubbins`: asciilifeform i don't think he can produce
a good story -- that much is obvious -- but it'd be nice for him to condense his stupidity into
a single volume that could be burned
mircea_popescu: because
a) even if the cd somehow failed it shouldnb't fail like this
mircea_popescu: "The Gentoo minimal installation CD is
a bootable CD which contains
a self-sustained Gentoo environment. It allows the user to boot Linux from the CD."
mircea_popescu: look. whatever whatever may be built as or not, i have two basic expectations. one is, for fucking machinery to behave the same way from night to next evening. the other, albeit weaker, is that if i get
a "minimal work" thing i actually have to do minimal work.
☟︎ mircea_popescu: i make
a bootable gentoo cd. system boots fine on it. this was last night. today, i go to work on it again, IT NO LONGER BOOTS.
mircea_popescu: the neverending fountain of weird shit... so alf get
a load of this!
cazalla: nothing gets me more riled up than
a stupid bitch who doesn't match colours.. autism rages
nubbins`: i will probably be doing this as
a general rule going forward
mod6: this works "as designed" on deb6 - so you might wanna put
a note in there what platform this is intended for.
nubbins`: should have
a patch on the ml in an hour or so, probably poison but feel free to give it
a look
mike_c: search.b-
a issues
a known problem? doesn't seem to have indexed the last few days
assbot: Logged on 26-10-2014 21:21:38; decimation: I've always imagined what would happen if I were marooned in pre-history with
a few choice textbooks
mircea_popescu: the point asciilifeform doesn't appreciate here is that i'd much rather spend 10k to sue forbes over
a missatributed story than spend 10k to buy "clicks" on facebook or w/e.
cazalla: i looked for
a legal contact, not finding anything, might have to be sent to time inc as they appear to own fortune.com
mircea_popescu: they don't as much as have
a fucking legal address on the site, anything.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform it's not
a matter of i expect to get that head. i am getting that head.
cazalla: mircea_popescu, i got
a response from fortune, not the one i was hoping for either
trinque: seems like isis is just good kindling for
a larger middle eastern war
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform danae fucked
a (pee) puddle was pregnant.
trinque: maybe they're respectable like one respects
a forest fire
mircea_popescu: consider the matter in terms you're better equipped to handle. if, upon breaking up
a girl with her former boyfriend, you institute
a policy that she may fuck him whenever,
Chillum: If I was involved in the formation of
a new regime I would institute
a policy of mercy on the old regime. If only because any new regime is likely to be taken over by the next
mircea_popescu: it's one thing to be
a thief, it's another to pretend not to be
a thief.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform i can see
a plan to have everyone who ever worked for
a government shipped to the salt mines until the whole sum is made back.
mircea_popescu: anything anyone owns on the grounds of having interacted with
a government is to be taken outright.
assbot: Logged on 03-04-2015 13:48:47; mircea_popescu: jurov the idea being that putin didn't write himself
a piece of paper saying "hey if i don't like you it's ok to take your stuff". or if he wrote, he didn't sign. or if he signed, he didn't publish. etc.
nubbins`: unless there's
a pressing need to use non-boost types, it's prob fine to just explicitly use the boost ones. not like the libs aren't being included anyway
nubbins`: but i can imagine this'd be
a bit of
a task
mircea_popescu: "The complaint said Siddiqui had been in contact with al Qaeda members and Velentzas was Facebook friends with Tairod Pugh,
a U.S. Air Force veteran charged with attempting to aid Islamic State,
a militant group that holds territory in Iraq and Syria. Pugh, 47, of Neptune, New Jersey, pleaded not guilty last month."
nubbins`: anyway, i actually went into cstdint.hpp and replaced
a few uint32_t instances with boost::uint32_t
nubbins`: i think all this uint stuff is just
a symptom of our boost installs being totally hosed
trinque: probably inhaling sand would make you
a bit dizzy
trinque: asciilifeform: I knew
a kid in junior high who was convinced the banana peel thing was real
mircea_popescu: "Mr. Theocharakis never characterized the technical teams of the institutions with the phrase attributed to him," the ministry said in
a statement. "On the contrary ... he referred to them as saying they include 'top-notch people with impressive skills.'"
mircea_popescu: from
a greek perspective, switching bases every 10 years would be the best outcome, they can hire poor polacks to manage for the construction work.
mircea_popescu: unless they can find
a way to run them in
a vms or something.
mircea_popescu: anyway, i think putin is having string orgasms. imagine, greece in
a compact with russia! sub bases ALL THROUGH THE ISLANDS.
mircea_popescu: there is after all
a difference between farmer burning his own crop and guy going and burning other people's things.
mircea_popescu: universal ip, as
a sha512 hash. no more of this "os doesn't know its ip" bs.
