mircea_popescu: asciilifeform suppose he lowers the tail and rolls over. "this is the inventory, please, take some, take any, for any price, save my chitlins, my wife's going mad with the hunger moans of the chitlins!!!"
mircea_popescu: anyway, if i for some reason walk into dnc office odds are stupid fat woman will similarly misbehave ; and the "bitch, i diselected your ur-whore" isn't gonna happen there more than in messipissland.
mircea_popescu: (the spanish reference comes from a famous incident in argentina where mp was trying to buy real estate, and idiot woman at desk's idea of the process was that she's now going to "assess" me. that blew up spectacularily if predictably.)
mircea_popescu: and i do not mean that in the negative, art all. literally, let them try, get to know us, figure things out, break their "assesorando" toolchain in the process....
mircea_popescu: republic "can be fleeced" far in excess of their parent company's hallucinatory "market valuation". let them try.
mircea_popescu: what exact % -- numeriuc application from those priors.
mircea_popescu: incidentally, this bitmistake/milcost is the exact reason human genome is some % garbage.
mircea_popescu: moreover, very 1820s steam engine airs hang about the entire barn
mircea_popescu: if i wanted the center caret of z80 rotated 90 degrees and printed, i could not get this done.
mircea_popescu: yes well. how about we bake out of this, rather than into this.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform you realise "soviets imported windowze" was precisely s. s. sovietovski saying "this is how industry works" in 1980.
mircea_popescu: no bit. byte, of 4096 bit size. make n-byte adder, sure.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform yes alf, that's what's always the crutch. "give just a little spring in yoru step for insurance against toads in the roads." that's precisely the crutch.
mircea_popescu: now, a 4096 bit native fpga, specifically for rsa-ing and rsa-likes-ing, THAT might be very useful, because there the s-o-d item is major win.
☟︎ mircea_popescu: the third is technological -- you learn to walk with crutch.
mircea_popescu: neither do you -- the minuses of the linux-c stack were actually not thortoughly understood until tmsr either.
mircea_popescu: i'm not particularly invested in being right about it ; but i'd better not be right and we end up with the wrong thing.
mircea_popescu: well, this dispute will have to be resolved cuz it's fucking important.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform there's better approaches to hanging moles than putting an ok button on every movement of every rifle.
mircea_popescu: because no, "every picture comes with crayons now" is not very smart ; and it's perversely, recursively nonsmart ("can't make polaroid, no way to produce attachable crayons -- maybe 3d print them ???")
mircea_popescu: but anyway, for my own use, fpga=wrapper around industrial poverty, somewhat like a painting that came with crayons.
mircea_popescu: there's two possible reasons you don't have a definition for a fpga you're happy with : either we're not yet enough advanced for one (to use, to make, whatever), or that it is ouytright an escher object.
mircea_popescu: i can well define a hammer, one of the simplest devices.
mircea_popescu: a universal tsmr cpu, even if nothing more than miniaturized/updated z80, would prolly be the one gain here. so we end up with a commodity part to put in things.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform what, the phb is supposed to come up with what ? you come up with three things let me pick, how about that!
mircea_popescu: the fundamental issue is that linux acts "as if" it's in friendly territory ; which is eminently false.
mircea_popescu: phf i dunno that it's set as "something we do" ; but it's certainly something we do in preference of "/tmp" much like we do things in preference of /dev/rand and other such bs.
mircea_popescu: eminently NOT discussing "here's how to not discuss what we're discussing".
mircea_popescu: what you really need to do is take on an apprentice, to cut down on that year.\
mircea_popescu: in any case asciilifeform : i am sure nsa would have no problem spending a coin or two on prototyping this.
mircea_popescu: o look, 700 per 25. tell you what, if we find actual chinese supplier this'll be so fucking feasible...
mircea_popescu: (imagine -- item's been loading this entire interval, still not loaded).
mircea_popescu has serious trouble reading that ; and would absolutely not buy anything from a french company anyway.
mircea_popescu: much like we'll have the luxury of paying taxes (it IS a luxury, if they're correctly used it's way the fuck better to pay a twenny and snow mover to come in than for each to keep in shed, oiled and repaired, own minimover for own driveway) once there's tmsr.gov somewhere. and so on.
mircea_popescu: about" with a view to "decide" "how it should be". we'll find out the natural way, there's no need for badly written fanfic.
mircea_popescu: up to you whether to make a dir or not ; eventually these will end up in that
http://btcbase.org/log/2018-10-23#1865314 -- but the only way that happens is if you try things and then productively disagree with people. i've nfi at the moment whether we do or we don't want single temp files in a tmp dir nevertheless, or anything else ; and i absolutely do not wish to ever do (or will ever permit anyone to) sit around and "think
☝︎☟︎ mircea_popescu:
http://btcbase.org/log/2018-10-24#1865707 << ./tmp is the "cannonical" place for putting "temporary" files ; but only in the sense that ./<label> is the place one'd expect <label> files to end up. it's only cannonical in the sense of cockblocking idiotic unixisms and other moronnicals.
☝︎☟︎☟︎ mircea_popescu: IF your program puts something in /tmp, your . is /, and live with that (i for instance will never sign such a monstrosity, unless it's the os/kernel itself)
mircea_popescu: "Intelligible and Unitelligable" << bwahaha. it's still unintelligible, what, the root changes if you derive it ?
mircea_popescu: there's a reason crabs never discover zanzibar and nigerians in a pot never get out. the reason is -- THAT VERY FAMBLY.
mircea_popescu: "if i tell truth -- moron cousins back home laugh at me ; if i tell lie, they also come over -- i laugh at them."
mircea_popescu:
http://btcbase.org/log/2018-10-24#1865590 << one time, a moron/filipina/african/whatever got $500 together, and in preference of buying indoor plumbing, or a gf/goat/whatever, bought miami ticket. once there, discovered it sucks terribly. first impulse was to leave a very scathingly honest review on miami.yelp ; but in the 18 minutes the page took to load (hurray for "modern" ux2.0 pid eins!) they changed their mind, left ver
☝︎ mircea_popescu: portability via vtree rather than ifdefs/wrappers/etc.
mircea_popescu: re-doing this every few years seems eminently 'dammi tempu ca ti perciu'.
☟︎☟︎ mircea_popescu: asciilifeform so let them get to know you ; nothing wrong with derps hearing of the most serene republic.
mircea_popescu: not wasted effort even if we don't end up baking it, logs will reflect a dated pricepoint, which is soemthing.
mircea_popescu: aaactually, ill tell you what i can do : im going to teh beach. back thurs or some shit!
mircea_popescu: yeah. i guess a history of c cultural sadness is showing in my preoccupatons huh.
mircea_popescu: diana_coman i can see it ; i like octet also, but yeah, can't start forcing this cultural issue on people. a one line define i guess only reasonable approach at this point.
