mircea_popescu: you ever been at
those gangster weddings in
the 70s where

to go find satoshi and kill him myself
ben_vulpes: or a fucking if statement downstream
that doesn't serialize a magic number
ben_vulpes: trinque: I DON'T WANT
THE MOTHERFUCKING ZEROS
mircea_popescu: ben_vulpes see,
the problem is
they have no sense of humor. why
the fuck make JUST "remove_copy_if" when you could have had a whole suite. "if_copy_remove" "remove_if_copy" AND "copy_if_remove" plus removeif_copy and __remove_ifcopy for good seizure.
ben_vulpes: so what,
truncate
the array, however
the fuck
that works in
this baroque hellscape?
ben_vulpes: > returns an iterator
the
the end of
the copied range
ben_vulpes: if i knew how many
there were i'd probably also know which
they were
ben_vulpes: how am i supposed
to know how many elements
to allocate for
the array which will receive
the filtered elements?
☟︎ trinque: what's
the one where you push it with feet out bottom
trinque: no no
this was
the bottom
tier shit nissan; I'm cheap as fuck
ben_vulpes: i figured
those shits called alexa all polite like

two
ben_vulpes: you can buy
the frame but
they still own
the engine
trinque: arm wrests

trinque drove a nissan cock cage for 3hrs

mircea_popescu gets 16 inch solid iridium spiked penis cage with a little handcrafted machine gun on

ben_vulpes: can't have anyone dancing
to well, now
mircea_popescu: wasn't implying any gender discrimination or inferiority or racism or anything of
the kind!
ben_vulpes: trinque: i've dreamed of waking up and being able
to see for decades at
this point
☟︎ mircea_popescu: ben_vulpes oh, i just happen
to not need any.
those girls who need eye correction, get same
thing you're discussing, a-weighted soft contacts/
trinque probably needs
to go get eyeball compensators soon, getting old
ben_vulpes: what, praytell, is so manly about
the rigid lenses
trinque: man I just figure
that pair of blurs in front of me on
teh highway is something I don't want
to drive into
ben_vulpes: soft lenses are a
thing, i've been using
them since
they came out with astigmatism weights.
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: You also have
to consider
the marketing rape of "impact resistant" from "doesn't break"
to implications of "shock resistant"
ben_vulpes: mp looks at std issue consumer item for first
time since leaving .ro more like it
mircea_popescu: anyway, i guess
this gets classified as /mp finally figures out what
top loading washer is, likes it.
mircea_popescu: well i guess
that shows how much i know about washers ;/
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo well
that i dunno. but shatter contacts are a major and growing part of serious eye injury.
☟︎ ben_vulpes: "new
tax" as in
tax for buying goods new
BingoBoingo: In other news: US "Occupational Safety" politruks are about
to approve IMPACT RATED CONTACT LENSES!!!
ben_vulpes: also i suspect
the energy efficiency numbers are
twisted by shrinking load size which is
total bullshit
ben_vulpes: no idea why anyone would buy
this sort of
thing with
the new
tax in place
ben_vulpes: plus asymmetric load due
to gravity during centrifuge cycle
ben_vulpes: why would you put a door seal in place when you could simply seal
the agitator axle
mircea_popescu: nah, it's what
the ro washing machines all were cca 1985
ben_vulpes: threw me,
this is a novel invention in
the states
to speed up parts wear and mildew growth
ben_vulpes: you say "stupid rotating faraday cage
thing, horizontal", as in a front-loading washer?
ben_vulpes: i do not
think i have ever seen
this wonder
mircea_popescu: it dun have a centrifuge, it sucks
the water out inertially. ie, as it lifts
the clothes
they lose water.
☟︎☟︎ ben_vulpes: does your drum still spin
to do a pre-dry extraction?
mircea_popescu: basically it convects your
textiles
through
the water/air border, repeatedly.
mircea_popescu: no, no.
the washer, it doesn't have
that stupid rotating faraday cage
thing, horizontal.
mircea_popescu: speaking of, i'm a huge fan of
the
tower arrangements.
ben_vulpes: well
there's
the washer, and
the dryer, and
the latter's probably a 'high efficiency' model
that doesn't actually get anything dry on
the first run
a111: Logged on 2017-05-07 23:25 phf`: from where i stand, same people who supported pim fortuyn and
theo van gogh, i.e. anarchists, leftists, etc. 15 years later are supporting multicultural europe and nodick values. etc.
mircea_popescu:
http://btcbase.org/log/2017-05-07#1652728 << yup. because violence works. if you notice a coupla pretty chicks in a group of libertards, you go break
the nose of a coupla dudes "for no reason" / "that was
totally uncalled for and not necessary!!!1" and
they'll all beeline
to suck your cock :
the chicks, and
the dudes.
☝︎ ben_vulpes: now i have
to make a pair or a struct or something and
then another function
that eats
that and returns a bool
ben_vulpes: this was
two lines of code with a lambda
mircea_popescu: ben_vulpes it's not required
to actually work
to be
THE IDEA, is it now!
a111: Logged on 2017-05-07 22:34 asciilifeform always wanted
to do
this
ben_vulpes: remove_copy_if
takes a unary predicate
ben_vulpes: is it just me or are
the c99 array mutation semantics just woefully lacking
a111: Logged on 2017-05-07 22:23 asciilifeform: aha, i've been
to professors' houses,
typically very spartan, 1 b00k case at most.
BingoBoingo: Anyways
the long
term recovered addict
tends
to usually be higher
than average quality homo sapien, but..
that recovery rate suffers from
too many social services preventing abject rock bottom
ben_vulpes: junkies, minorities groups imported as refugees within
the last decade, whatever.
ben_vulpes: asciilifeform: a 'city' in america doesn't 'win'. it 'brings more voices
to
the
table'.
ben_vulpes: way
the heck upstack; BingoBoingo i have determined
that "crack-o-my-ass" county late summer county fair has a
talent competition, gospel competition, but as far as i've bothered
to look so far, no amateur ag competition
