mircea_popescu: not for all of them, but you don't need to, and it doesn't work reliably either, but you don't need it to, either.
mircea_popescu: retarded, that you can fix.
mircea_popescu: the problem is that boys are retarded while girls are useless.
mircea_popescu: " It's obvious to anyone who has ever seen a boy that they appear, as compared to a similarly aged girl, completely retarded."
mircea_popescu: to quote, for truth :
mircea_popescu: the death where mp is NOT EVEN IMPRESSED. and he's from fucking romanistan!
mircea_popescu: the death where everyone runs around like a headless chicken while the economy disappears "all by itself" and every war is lost (and scarcely even worth the name)
mircea_popescu: i wonder how many people are willing to earnestly contemplate the sad truth that you HAVE TO tell small boys that they're better than small girls, and you HAVE TO construct everything to make them actually believe it. nobody wants to do this, everyone has to do this, because the alternative is, plainly speaking, death.
mircea_popescu: then people wanna know "what went wrong"
mircea_popescu: somehow the obvious "if you've not managed to sell school to boys you failed" is not getting across. "girls will stick with it because that's what girls ARE" is not even possible to contemplate.
mircea_popescu: way to go.
mircea_popescu: the result of making education "more inclusive" ? society gets tuned out by the most important half of itself.
mircea_popescu: http://thelastpsychiatrist.com/2008/10/the_graying_of_kindergarten_th.html
mircea_popescu: e girls. So the problem isn't simply that boys mature slower than girls, it is that they are required to perform the same exact skills at the same exact time. Any surprise boys hate school more, "ADHD" is more prevalent, etc? And there is more anxiety and thus pressure about the potential ineptitude of sons than daughters.
mircea_popescu: Second, one might ask why this is happening to boys more than girls. It's obvious to anyone who has ever seen a boy that they appear, as compared to a similarly aged girl, completely retarded. So it makes sense that affluent parents-- any parents-- who have the option, will redshirt their five year old boy and hope he gets another year of maturity under his belt so that-- and this is my point-- he can keep up with th

mircea_popescu: also that's probably the worst presentation for it, seeing how the shoulder articulation actually unhinges.
mircea_popescu: aha. it's particularly difficult in humans, because as ben_vulpes observes, flesh.
mircea_popescu: as opposed to the whore point.
mircea_popescu: if you measure correctly you can get her to where she's not totally murdering herself on that thing. not trivial.

mircea_popescu: ftr - you CAN get sick from too much caviar. and it's not fucking pretty.
mircea_popescu: buttsex
mircea_popescu: thestringpuller die young leave a corpse with nice tits, eh ?
mircea_popescu: lol.k.
mircea_popescu: oic.
mircea_popescu: erric raymond
mircea_popescu: to the logs! remember, we were mocking him last week ?
mircea_popescu: maybe the 3 is a 7.
mircea_popescu: but from what i hear the "cultured poor" a la ers fare not much better.
mircea_popescu: your desire to enact this difference is noted.
mircea_popescu: not germane, is it ?
mircea_popescu: seems to be working fine.
mircea_popescu: because from what i hear on your planet the life expectancy of lottery winner is 3 years.
mircea_popescu: is it ?
mircea_popescu: !up ascii_field
mircea_popescu: so i'll just discount it.
mircea_popescu: so then for all you know they smoked in a non-smoking place.
mircea_popescu: \were they your slaves ? did you know them in the penis-in-colon sense ?
mircea_popescu: and "knew others" is also bullshit. you knew others in the sense of what they chose to present
mircea_popescu: "the poor never get gypped". this.
mircea_popescu: well that's all it is.
mircea_popescu: that's the point. that nominalism never fixed anything.
mircea_popescu: herpitty-derp.
mircea_popescu: guess the fuck what ? rents are going to go up!
mircea_popescu: but anyway, all of this is nonsense. if IN GENERAL landlords keep the deposit, then IT IS JUST A COST. like part of the cost of renting. and if you somehow magically push this valve shut,
mircea_popescu: and did you not get your deposit back ?
mircea_popescu: the REASON you can't afford to litigate is THAT you are making bullshit up.
mircea_popescu: words mean nothing in and of themselves, and the pretense to the contrary is always self-serving bullshit when deployed in such contexts, "oh, i can't afford to litigate"
mircea_popescu: we don't have the contract before our eyes, but im willing to bet it reads "and renter to return place IN THE SAME CONDITION" which by tradition is interpreted in that locale that you pay for the fumigation after you're done in the shape of an upfront thing.
mircea_popescu: not my reading.
mircea_popescu: this is the process whereby it's made sure. as the guy describes. "deposit fraud". hey check it out, some dcs charge a set-up fee. "dc fraud". herp.
mircea_popescu: ascii_field yes.
mircea_popescu: trinque they just overlapped, seems fine.
mircea_popescu: yes.
