to
them. forcibly. i do mean, at
the point of
the sword, rape
them with it.
snsabot: Logged on 2019-09-07 07:26:50 mircea_popescu: chuck moore can be famous when he meets
the bar
to existence. when you can fucking LINK
to
the god damned "famous"
things.
snsabot: Logged on 2019-09-07 07:18:44 mircea_popescu: i don't specifically care if
they become
things or not -- but i'd much rather not be asked
to foot
the bill for
their becoming. let
them do
the work
themfuckingselves, which is why i say : piggybacking even more stupid shit atop a
tower of stupid shit we're allegedly
trying
to clean up is... well ? it's stupid!
snsabot: Logged on 2019-09-07 07:17:58 mircea_popescu: forth is not a
thing. lisp is not a
thing. on in
this vein.
snsabot: Logged on 2019-09-07 07:12:55 mircea_popescu: and just so, "great lang"
that does nothing IS nothing.
snsabot: Logged on 2019-09-07 05:01:18 mircea_popescu:
thinks asciilifeform should also get something ;
though it's unclear how exactly
to figure
this out. but -- lacking a better idea, i guess he can have 10% of
the winning bid in royalties and we see.

the line where it was mentioned as
text and
the url
to
the logotron ; and c) deploys
this
to pizarro box (should be getting one presently i'm understanding) --
this step will also include putting a
trilema clone in
there (i'll provide
the mp-wp install/db dumb, all
that's needed is a mysql glue such
that local myql server slaves
trilema.com mysql server ; i intend
to make a one line edit
to
the forms, such
that
snsabot: Logged on 2019-09-07 01:28:50 mircea_popescu: anyway, biosacks only need names if
they're about
to log here. both hanbot an' nicoleci are on, and so far what you lot wanna use
them for is rather punching bags, from experience, so i don't see
the urgency in naming anyone else.
snsabot: Logged on 2019-09-07 00:55:08 mircea_popescu: call
that P. meanwhile output, or productivity, is expressed as a different scalar, call it W.
snsabot: Logged on 2019-02-03 12:27:29 mircea_popescu: in other news, mp's own bash grenadiers regiment suggests an ad interim solution for
http://btcbase.org/log/2019-02-02#1891951 in
the shape of ls | grep ^x..$' | while read line; do curl -Ls -o /dev/null -w %{url_effective} -X POST -F "pastebox=@$line"
http://p.bvulpes.com -w %{url_effective}; done
trinque: I'll stick it on
the page here in a bit, gonna snag coffee and be back
hanbot: btw, since i have your ear: is
the harappan reference a nod
to all its extant scripts being very short?
hanbot: 'cause it seems you reliably get exactly
the kinda "camp follower"
that goes along with girls; some angry old dude comes
to
trilema like *once*, leaves rambling comment, dissipates back into
the biomass.
mircea_popescu: aaanyways, uk is dissolved almost entirely, yes 1980s
thatcher's uk would have fucking imploded if we did something like
this ; whereas 2020s may uk... well... just look at
the whole eu debacle,
they're a joke.
diana_coman: I would surely hope so;
though you know, seeing how
the bac data stuff went with
those concerned focusing on "why are you doing
this??" and ~nothing else, I wouldn't even be sure of anything.
mircea_popescu: basically, we've been diligently building vapors over
the years. looking for a spark.
mircea_popescu: and you know, if we manage
to get
this going, it
then follows, in-yo-face, angry "your college is wasting your money" billboards, 100% all in scanda.
ossabot: Logged on 2019-09-07 09:59:41 mircea_popescu: still,
this is definitely a vulnerable / sore spot in
the imperial "clothing for nude emperors" pile.
ossabot: Logged on 2019-09-07 09:50:36 mircea_popescu:
the idea is
to fuck
them up, not
to politely ignore
them.
diana_coman: so I'll look up further and figure it out re recognised status and all
that
too.
diana_coman: I'm at least curious about it for sure; and somehow over
the years, no matter where and how I
turned around, sooner or later (usually sooner) I *still* end up
touching on
the educational sector, what can I say more.
mircea_popescu: still,
this is definitely a vulnerable / sore spot in
the imperial "clothing for nude emperors" pile.
diana_coman: mircea_popescu:
the uk has a boatload of various
tests and
things; not fully aligned (from my current knowledge of
the domain, admiteddly limited)
mircea_popescu: fucking
trivial
to make a few kids ace
those,
they're written by bugmen for bugmen.
mircea_popescu: i expect
the uk has bologna mandated standardized
testing, yes ?
mircea_popescu: then you get
to go
to regional
teacher's conferences on
the strength of "best in
the country" but on a platform of "rape and pillage".
mircea_popescu: diana_coman,
the idea is
to have
the #1 college in
the uk for whatever specialty of your choice simultaneously a) 0
tuition ; b) "we don't
take your govt scrip here" ie off
their bezzle circuit and
diana_coman: the point is
to be able
to give degrees
they can't ignore/wave away , for stuff which is ours and as such probably mostly at odds with
their ideas?
diana_coman: I have
trouble reasoning in
terms of status coming from
them,
that's where I stumbled
mircea_popescu: you ain't getting a physical building without status,
though, what sense'd
that make ?
mircea_popescu: the idea is
to fuck
them up, not
to politely ignore
them.
diana_coman: pretty much;
the only missing bit is a physical building.
diana_coman: basically: whether one has
their stamp; I'd rather NOT have it
tbh.
mircea_popescu: well, if we're not getting
that,
then we could just make a college by deedbot.
diana_coman: to cite from gov.uk "if your degree is not from an officially recognised UK university or college,
there's no guarantee it'll count when you're looking for a job" ; i.e. whether you are within
the system or not,
the way I read it.
mircea_popescu: could just as well make one of
those and make it small but excellent. use it
to
terribly disturb
the statu quo, because it obviously goes against everything
they've
tacitly agreed upon
diana_coman: mircea_popescu:
there are 2 aspects: 1. whether you want
to apply for bezzle 2. whether you want "recognised status"
mircea_popescu: the idea is
to exploit
the socialism poverty hole. all sorta community colleges / 2 year
technical colleges in ruralia would
take ~anyone, including ~any soccer mom with a degree as a
teacher.
mircea_popescu: diana_coman, my
thinking is
that if you don't apply for bezzle,
then it could perhaps be lightweight, easy
to get.
ossabot: Logged on 2019-09-07 04:33:10 mircea_popescu: diana_coman, his idea might be good, actually. what's
the uk requirements for starting a private college ?
diana_coman:
http://logs.ossasepia.com/log/trilema/2019-09-07#1934570 - after a first look, it seems
to me
that it all depends on
the degree
to which one cares about "the system"; personally I don't care and don't even want
to make
the venture "caring" but
to know what I'm looking for: are
their notions (eg of "degrees") of any interest at all?
mircea_popescu: me sitting around all day playing about
takes a lot of fucking work.
mircea_popescu: diana_coman, yeah, if she ever gets a free minute. which she currentrly does,
today, and otherwise last happened... um. pretty sure it was june
snsabot: Logged on 2019-09-06 22:48:16 asciilifeform: iirc mircea_popescu surveyed, and found
that it was some laffably small #
diana_coman: hm, I recall some illustrations hanbot made on a
trilema article - fwiw I
think she can draw actually.

trinque: heh,
this place needs a cartoonist so bad
