mircea_popescu: shit that only happened on planet "i'm a fat fuckhead and i will daydream an alt-history in which women actually did shit" ?

mircea_popescu: meanwhile "wtf is cogburn" "it's a reference to a film you stopped because wtf is this stupid shit."

mircea_popescu: also, i am not a cryptographer.

mircea_popescu: pete_dushenski original deal was for a dozen, you;'d prolly make it

mircea_popescu: methinks institutionals got told a few words ?

mircea_popescu: iirc we had a guy in here who claimed 546805806 years of precious metal guruism

mircea_popescu: cazalla write to the author and to forbes editor, tell them they can either publish a fix or else i sue. ☟︎

mircea_popescu: "My, that is an effective manipulation. You are a dangerous man"

mircea_popescu: basicaly... these are kids whoise main feature is having sat through a bunch of bad marketing seminars.

mircea_popescu: ham fisted, Hariezer is consistently telling us about all the manipulative tricks they are both using. Its less a conversation and more people who just sat through a shitty marketing seminar trying to try out what they learned. WITH RAPE. "

mircea_popescu: "So, Hariezer is joking about the murder (its made clear later), but WHAT THE FUCK IS HAPPENING? These escalating friendship-tests feel contrived, reciprocity is effective when you don’t make demands immediately, which is why when you get a free sample at the grocery store the person at the counter doesn’t say “did you like that? Buy this juice or we won’t be friends anymore.” This whole conversation feels

mircea_popescu: hey, does wikiquote have a page of quotes from my cat yet ?

mircea_popescu: there was a very apt summary in that physicits's criticism. i suppose i should look it up.

mircea_popescu: im starting to notice a pattern here, he reads exactly like yak guy, once i read yak guy

mircea_popescu: his mantears over bitcoin existing coupled with a certain need for "Expertise" in certain quarters...

mircea_popescu: so i guess two can't admits make it a mindblowing evil thing.

mircea_popescu: for the other it's not ok to admit urbit exists strictly because a) yarvin's chumpatron attempt failed just at the time b) usg was looking for a particular tool

mircea_popescu: well for one thing it's not ok to admit yarvin is orlov in a different color scheme

mircea_popescu: As a development methodology it's often useful to write hoon that tracks an existing C routine rather than the other way around, but even this needs to be done quite carefully to avoid jet discrepancies."

mircea_popescu: "Writing an empty stub is an extremely bad practice and should only be done in desperation, because at the urbit level it produces a system event log that is nonrepeatable, or at least noncompliant with the nock spec. Discrepancies propagate rapidly in any kind of replay. You should be able to turn off all jets and get the same result. This is not practical, but it is practical if you disable everything but a few ba

mircea_popescu: nobody is disputing it's a very useful tool for many things.

mircea_popescu: well yes. im chasing the culprit. i wish to know who the fuck thought this is a good idea.

mircea_popescu: so far, i'm a) chasing whoever the fuck broke the world by making an idiotic libnss and b) unconvinced the problem's more than that dns bs.

mircea_popescu: but that's a different discussion.

mircea_popescu: how do you distinguish a bug in the os from a bug in the emulator from a bug in the code ?

mircea_popescu: you essentially have managed to divorce a new academia out of engineering

mircea_popescu: inb short : it'd be great if emulators as you conceptually represent one existed and work. they do not. what we need is a distro to set in stone.

mircea_popescu: asciilifeform anyway, granted, it's "a better hypervisor". still runs on another os.

mircea_popescu: pete_dushenski "The teens are the sons of Roxanne Dubé, who only recently assumed the role of consul general in Miami. A former Fulbright scholar, she has extensive diplomatic experience, having worked as an aide in Parliament and as the ambassador to Zimbabwe."

mircea_popescu: asciilifeform a minor point, but anyway.

mircea_popescu: so far this is a hypervisor.

mircea_popescu: look, qemu is essentially a hypervisor.

mircea_popescu: but pretending like magic works isn't a solution to it.

mircea_popescu: this is a problem.

mircea_popescu: but yes, the execration has occured to me a number of times.

mircea_popescu: well how the fuck was i to know a year later ima be all the way up in thompsoncpp

mircea_popescu: http://log1.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=02-04-2015#1084286 << this is a correct approach, the problem seems to be however that compilers don't work properly.

mircea_popescu: not sure about yours, mebbe worth a shit

mircea_popescu: with its own. it's a whole complete universe.

mircea_popescu: you're fighting shit with a taller tower. of shit.

mircea_popescu: it's a bad idea.

mircea_popescu: emulators are seriously a very bad idea for this.

mircea_popescu: what, "posix" ? that's not a thing

mircea_popescu: i suppose it's targeted at folks who think the usg is a good idea and windows an operating system.

mircea_popescu: any random string being hashable, any random string could be used as a pubkey, in principle. may take some work to mine a usable privkey to go with it, but...

mircea_popescu: btw, anyone ever got rms' new autoreply ? the one where he goes "i'm on a 48 hour delay like mpex" ?
