phf: nah,
tmsr is like situationists, has
the anti-spectacle protective mechanisms builtin. recurepation will be in form of artisanal log excerpts and "Collected
Trilema" and such for a special kind of hipster
phf: *dear, but
the other one works
too

til,
there's a "Knuth Prize"
that doesn't actually involve knuth. "The Knuth Prize winner is selected by a Prize Committee consisting of six individuals selected by
the SIGACT and
TCMFC Chairs. In selecting
the Knuth Prize winner,
the Committee will pay particular attention
to a sustained record of high-impact, seminal contributions
to
the foundations of computer science.
The selection may also be partly based on educational accomplishments and contrib

http://btcbase.org/log/2017-06-22#1673634 << i'm dying, but i'm not surrendering. goodbye, motherland. 7/20/41. fwiw ascii is smart not
to
translate it, english verbiage doesn't do it justice
phf: utions such as fundamental
textbooks and high-quality students.
The award is not based on service work for
the community, although service might be included in
the citation for a winner if it is appropriate."

TomServo: asciilifeform: what does it say?
TomServo: Also, if someone could share a copy of mp-wp,
that'd be swell.
whaack: (not sure whether or not
the unfilled buy orders on
the way down occurred in
this case)
whaack: from what I remember reading about shitfinex,
the people with pending bitcoin buy orders at X did not get
theirs completed, while at
the same
time people were forced
to sell ("margin called") because price was officially "X-E"
erlehmann: i'll read
the log again
to maybe get a clear picture
trinque: put usually around here as "I just want
to"
trinque: "I don't care" is
the correct answer.
trinque: in a place
that clearly worships
this "following
the rules of decent discussion"
trinque: then I ask you what
the output of all your "the community" and "class not race" noise has been, in your own judgment?
trinque: the republic's forum is not "I will posture on whichever
topics don't make me uncomfortable"
BingoBoingo: Eh, German's well on it's way
to becoming Far-East-East Saint Louis
trinque: you couldn't have come
to a worse place
to
tell us what it "means
to you"
erlehmann: trinque i don't actually want
to have a conversation about invasion, because i don't particularly care. i came here because of
the v versionatron and because i liked
the attitude behind
that.
trinque: anyhow lets all just
tweet now, eh?
erlehmann: ben_vulpes i
think identifying as
trans-black or something might
top it, depending on circumstances
erlehmann: Framedragger it is
the one where vampires can't do VR because
they have autism and see
the pixels.
ben_vulpes: trinque: oh hey while on
the
topic, best way
to wind up modern genderbenders, blacklivesmatter et al feebs is
to "i mean sure, but isn't
that all just embedded in
the class struggle?"
trinque: "I don't want
to have a conversation re: invasion, so lets instead belabor whether we're all behaving ourselves."
Framedragger: erlehmann: it's
the one where (logreaders, spoilers) alien intelligence which is actually intelligent is not conscious, right?
trinque: erlehmann | asciilifeform you mean conflict is classist, not racist. <<
the fuck kind of grandmother-pleasing behavior is
this?
Framedragger: actually, i had started reading
that one,
too!!
erlehmann: vice forgot
to include
that ethereum
transactions are indeed reverseable, but only when core developers lose money.
BingoBoingo: <asciilifeform> you probably would not want bottom 10% of arkansas moving in , either. << FUcking peckerwood
trash
Framedragger: oh
there's a .de
translation apparently, but can't attest
to quality
Framedragger: 'tis not bad, but read only small part. decent ru->en
translation by a guy on livejournal (not joking, promise)
BingoBoingo: <asciilifeform> and
then 4th stage is
the 'gentrifying' sections of detroit,
that are being rebuilt into masses of cardboard condos
that sell for $1M. << St Louis appears
to want
to go from 3
to 4, but uncertain if
three can really be moved past
Framedragger: and how
the elves with gandalf conspired
to rewrite story ("written by
the victors" and all
that), and ring was actually a side plot
to distract people
Framedragger: you may be interested in "the last rinbearer" by a russian geologist (iirc),
tells ring
tale from perspective of mordor on a brink of industrial revolution
trinque: I'm still eagerly awaiting a description of
these roving gangs of car burners.
☟︎ BingoBoingo: <trinque> or is it
the invaders
that are actually
torching cars in
these
towns << Yes, so "not crime"(TM)(R) because "honored guests
erlehmann: Framedragger i actually meant “i had not noticed
to
that extent until now how
tolkien
tells a story
that can be seen as a race war”
erlehmann: e.g. i rarely encounter black people when going
to
the supermarket
erlehmann: fact of
the matter is i have not enough reference points
BingoBoingo: <Framedragger> plenty of folks quite content living
their frugal lives (in e.g. leipzig, from what i hear,
to be particular), i guess #t doesn't
think much of
them, i happen
to have friends, what do. if bitch at 5% rent increase, sure, not much sympathy from me << Better
to be frugal and not poor
trinque: fact of
the matter is
that he is not permitted
to say.
erlehmann: asciilifeform i enjoy
turkish and kurdish food, but otherwise, no idea.
erlehmann: asciilifeform i spent years of my youth in a remote boarding school inside an old monastery building. not many
turks or africans
there.
Framedragger: erlehmann: "blatant racism" is an empty label here, and won't carry
the same "prescriptive power" as elsewhere.
that said, maybe you meant "heuristic generalisations are dangerous" (my (overcharitable) interpretation)
erlehmann: well, i
think when i arrive people often
tend
to
think i want
to convince
them of something. i often do not want and do not care as much as other
think i do.
trinque: I
think when I arrived I
thought
the place was a bunch of red-pillers
trinque: maybe
they still will get worked out
Framedragger: rehashing *conclusions* of
tmsr dogma does not do much good. (i guess counter
to
that is "we don't have
time for proper free education", which is fair).
☟︎ ben_vulpes: 'new blood' from
trinque and mircea_popescu
trinque: who
the hell is
this guy, even
erlehmann: i
think it is fairly plausible
that
the description of “orcs” can be read as some kind of blatant racism – “black-skinned”, “brutish”, “slant-eyed” …
☟︎ erlehmann: berlin is special, partially because both east and west used it
to show off.
☟︎ erlehmann: trinque it is about
the specific history of berlin.
trinque: you
think
the same stupid arguments aren't raised every
time someone improves a neighborhood anywhere else?
trinque: "I chose
this" is I suppose one way
to cope with
the dick buried in your ass.
erlehmann: they have skin in
the game, so
to say
erlehmann: trinque refugees intend
to become residents, not
transients.
trinque: or is it
the invaders
that are actually
torching cars in
these
towns
trinque: erlehmann: please bridge
the gap for me between "country
that is welcoming a flood of foreign invaders" and "omg haet
tourists, I'll
torch your car"
☟︎ lobbes: ben_vulpes: if
the "community" can't soak people who want
to come
there and spend money adequately
to make
tourism +ev for
the hosts incl. cities, how can
they even justify continuing
to live << I grew up on
The Cod in Massachusetts; "working class" locals were always bitching about how much
they hated
tourists, but
that
tourism $$$ is
the ~only~
thing sustaining
that particular sandbar. Fishing is dead, and retail and landscaping indus
