asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: i suppose it is because preteens etc. still have eyelashes
a111: Logged on 2017-01-26 15:41 mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2017-01-26#1607087 << this is actually not half-bad an idea, and it goes nicely in the direction of phf 's literate code, which i still think should be a distant, but present goal.
a111: Logged on 2017-01-26 15:47 mircea_popescu: there isn't a better approach to this. in particular "creating a semi-permeable membrane" is not one of them.
a111: Logged on 2016-12-31 19:29 mircea_popescu: are you familiar with the von neumann set ?
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: afaik it is part of the strange 'let poor schmucks Feel Like They Have Servant for 5min' thing americans have going
Framedragger: mircea_popescu: names of women you fucked. i know the names and there aren't too many of 'em. and for some strange indefensible reason i think this applies to many folx here. but this is a tangent
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: argument, seems to me, is that 'keeping track of subpersonalities is free, because mircea_popescu never had problem with it, on account of not ever having to actually do much of it'
asciilifeform: this is exactly the 'we don't need versionatron!' thread but with asciilifeform's and mircea_popescu's speaking parts reversed.
Framedragger: (something tells me that mircea_popescu's latest example does not work amazingly well here)
a111: Logged on 2015-08-05 13:38 mircea_popescu: one is USE. specifically - hanbot must be able to put into work the theoretical advances b-a produces. and ima use her as a stand-in for "intelligent and willing to work, but not able to grow a beard".
asciilifeform: the reason why asciilifeform listened to mircea_popescu , and actually wrote the tool, is the very real human limitations that exist, http://btcbase.org/log/2015-08-05#1225522 ☝︎
asciilifeform: v, for instance, is a classica intelligence amplifier. (if mircea_popescu recalls, asciilifeform resisted actually ~writing~ it, and said, approx., 'a reasonable person ought to be able to Do All Of This In His Head')
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: i don't do ai. i do ia.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: plox to elaborate
a111: Logged on 2016-12-02 23:36 mircea_popescu: and for this reason ratings can't have to be signed - they can never be opposed to the maker.
asciilifeform: iirc mircea_popescu did not like idea of signed wot ratings.
asciilifeform: (and i will also note, mircea_popescu's method puts serious mechanical stress on a part of tmsr that is at present time not well-developed -- navigation of elaborate, deep, and TIME-VARIANT relationships between wot inhabitants) ☟︎
asciilifeform: in this vein mircea_popescu's answer '1 man, 1000 keys' is probably the closest thing to practical solution proposed, but imho it does not eliminate the problem, it is still something that must be lived with
asciilifeform: iirc mircea_popescu still does not use trb to touch actual megacoinz
asciilifeform: trinque: now consider mircea_popescu's objection to the way i structured shiva patches.
a111: Logged on 2017-01-26 07:07 mircea_popescu: To be clear re ^ : dude's been trying to attack the republic for over a year by now through the remarkably idiotic procedure of speaking as if he has some weight. Because who knows, maybe we're all dumb dumb and this contextual approach actually works, we'll end up thinking he's somebody because he's been acting as if he were for so long, everyone forgot he isn't.
Framedragger: mircea_popescu: i suppose so, at least the latest concept iteration as developed in the comments
deedbot: mircea_popescu updated rating of adlai from 1 to -10 << Deliberately useless idiot.
deedbot: mircea_popescu rated adlai 1 at 2016/02/17 21:22:20 << alf's bff. nolispo.
asciilifeform: and mircea_popescu would not hold any of the signers answerable for its defects
asciilifeform: why does trb-genesis get special treatment in mircea_popescu's scheme ?
asciilifeform: except mircea_popescu is not doing without milk, he (and i, and the lot of us) is drinking the pus from syphilitic whore.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu also tends to ignore the very real risk of 'no concubines, no children'
asciilifeform: this was, recall, before mircea_popescu's gordian knot cut of 'use multiple keys'
asciilifeform: and i entirely agree with mircea_popescu that working with such a thing is terrifyingly poor discipline.
asciilifeform: i get it, mircea_popescu really hates blue colour, and thinks that merc engine should light eggog light an' stop immediately if it detects blue paint on chassis
asciilifeform: i get that mircea_popescu really, ~really~ hates multirooted vtrees. this doesn't make'em '1==2'
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: i disagree that multiple-roots should be a mechanical eggog.
asciilifeform: ( mircea_popescu's dictum of 'have 1 root' cannot be enforced mechanically, vtron has no business deciding arbitrarily which root is 'the' root)
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: recall, i actually had a wholly separate shiva-bridge
asciilifeform: btw mircea_popescu's criticism of shiva-genesis was 100% deserved, it ~does in fact~ logically depend on trb, but did not indicate said dependence vtronically
mod6: <+mircea_popescu> either it builds in its own independent tree, or else it declares an antecedent in the trb tree. << so in the latter part here, should my 'foobar.vpatch' that just adds one file without any antecedents or descendants actually inherit an antecedent, in this case 'genesis.vpatch' ? just trying to understand ...
asciilifeform: it's a second root and mircea_popescu really, really hates'em.
asciilifeform: iirc there was a spiffy mircea_popescu article about the costs of letting 'harmless' idiots live (makes idiocy seem acceptable)
a111: Logged on 2017-01-26 01:06 mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2017-01-25#1606709 << is that vintage idiocy or novel ?
ben_vulpes: mircea_popescu: how about http://trilema.com/2009/pe-scurt-despre-analiza-tranzactionala/ ☟︎
ben_vulpes: ugh mircea_popescu how do i find the qualia thread in your blog
a111: Logged on 2017-01-24 06:43 mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2017-01-24#1606322 << you'll have to one day sit down and explain to me exactly what you mean by "optimization strategy".
ben_vulpes: mircea_popescu: brain scans are phrenology, not astrology
ben_vulpes: mircea_popescu: http://trilema.com/2009/exceptionalismul-feminin/ << translation candidate?
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: well no, problem not solved, the pieces on the ground can easily have residue of key, if the zapper is mechanically damaged before it can finish zapping.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: probably there is no reason to ever bother with slow zaps.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: hey, it's what they picked for 'how to deal with pgp'
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: 'quantum communication' is golden toilet nonsense, for the cost of building the link, you can perma-sync a thousand years of OTP.
a111: Logged on 2017-01-25 12:13 mircea_popescu: o right, also need a 2T field on at all times.

ben_vulpes: based on historical record alone it is very unlikely but i put the chances that mircea_popescu dramatically underestimates the scale and scope of insanity running amok in the states at ~5%
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: 'webex' is pestilentially common in usa.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: protecting own neck from the noose, as per http://qntra.net/2017/01/the-fourth-reich-grips-berlin
Framedragger: hey mircea_popescu, you still got a bunch of ipv4 addresses available? are they under a single /16? i may be interested in purchasing/leasing them from you for a non-tmsr related project
pete_dushenski: mircea_popescu: couple other wh pages removed in addition to climate change. 'lbgt rights' also went poof. mega lulz.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: recall how the original worked.
netmonk: mircea_popescu: yes you are right, i dont know what candi_lustt relates to
a111: Logged on 2017-01-21 14:17 mircea_popescu: asciilifeform what's the problem with the lavabit relaunch anyway ?
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: got it
BingoBoingo: <mircea_popescu> srsly, the official dyi kit of the mexican footbal team ? who the everloving came up with this. << The bigger point is that company found appealing to Mexicans in America was worth alientating the other demographics. The lulz.
scriba: Logged on 2017-01-08: [15:22:41] <mircea_popescu> ( Framedragger and if you work on it, moving away from the "<name> " to the bolded-name-colon convention would also be very nice.
Framedragger: mircea_popescu: guess so. in which case that switch should be operatable by someone else as well (as i can do this myself easily already, but yes presently requires restart, and yes read-eval loop would be nice etc)
asciilifeform: also mircea_popescu if a prime q is found and m/q == p, and p is prime, p is listed as factor.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: normally they use buses
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: got it
a111: Logged on 2017-01-20 00:04 mircea_popescu: you knwo you should eat some bread and vegetables on occasion
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: lol, i ~did~ wonder what he wanted with that crate.

jhvh1: mircea_popescu: No matches found.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: in point of fact, tinyscheme does.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: it exists, i have run number crunching routines this way.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: what i wanted to establish was the ~whynot~
a111: Logged on 2016-09-17 02:57 mircea_popescu: how can you lot put up with these idiots ?
asciilifeform: y'know, this is how folx end up on a scaffold with mircea_popescu pissing down their neckstump
a111: Logged on 2017-01-19 18:27 asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: it'd get quite painful for a large proggy.
asciilifeform: i thought mircea_popescu ends up with DShK shells in pockets when comes back from roof.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: it'd get quite painful for a large proggy. ☟︎
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: and picture if it had been on your actual comp.
asciilifeform: it did, though not in the peculiar 'stick shift' way described by mircea_popescu earlier
asciilifeform: aha so mircea_popescu is simply asking for lispm, lol.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: in sane programming system (e.g., lisps) nobody gets to point to 'memory address'. they point to an item that necessarily and unseparably carries not only address (not visible to or alterable by the operator, normally) but also a type and -- when the thing is >1 machine word in size -- a size.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: for so long as memory is sold as a dumb capacitor grid, cpu can necessarily address all of it (that is, all of the connected ones)
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: ada's 'modular types' come to mind
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: nah, 'jets' were a terrifying crackpottery where he promised to 'recognize algorithms' and 'transparently' substitute in optimized/c-tronic routines
a111: Logged on 2017-01-19 16:28 mircea_popescu: yep. usg banks won't do intl wires, for a decade+ now
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: 'works' ain't their objective. area denial, is.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: the weevils do in fact leverage one another's weeviling.
a111: Logged on 2016-12-28 19:23 mircea_popescu: which i suppose warrants a general warning : DO NOT UPGRADE YOUR GCC TO 5.0! SAVE YOUR COPIES OF 4.X AND PRIOR!
a111: Logged on 2017-01-14 01:07 mircea_popescu: a patch can only apply if ALL of its antecedents are present ; not if ANY of its antecedents are present
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: https://youtu.be/BFZgOK4KIsQ?t=5m << aaaactually this came first!!
asciilifeform: i might have to use mircea_popescu's method. but it will take thousand years, because my proper pillow had 0 feather stems.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: that was actually the part i found to be the puzzler -- who exactly are these.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: afaik the 'engineers' thing is from the 'dilbertian iconography' where there is class warfare between precisely two types of being, the 'dour engineer' and 'pointy haired boss'
asciilifeform had a dream last night, that he was tending a threadbare patch of ground in afghan. and another dream that he visited mircea_popescu's house, and it turned out to be a massive derelict freighter, tastefully rockefellerized on the inside.
a111: Logged on 2017-01-17 16:06 mircea_popescu: suppose you met an ant one day, and this and told you in morse code its whole genome.
asciilifeform: woah that's the dourest looking mircea_popescu face thus far
Ingolfr_Arnarson: mircea_popescu, Is violence is so good, may I ask how much violence do you need on yourself in your life?
asciilifeform: imagine if mircea_popescu's potted datura stramonia bush ended up in power.
deedbot: mircea_popescu may not !!down phf.
