mircea_popescu: but yes, Framedragger has it,
the
topic was whether engineer, not whether "good" or "bad" or whatever.
Framedragger: asciilifeform:
that's
true, it's "rough around
the edges" is an understatement for now. and in general, a ~very~ problematic position
to be in.
there is
that...
mircea_popescu: this is like observing
that not-particularily-bright kid who evidently likes cars is probably a driver.
Framedragger: anyway,
the point is, she did lots of
technical work after gender change.
mircea_popescu: ftr, prostitution is in point of fact
the single most common occupation of
transsexuals of any description, as well as of "sex activists" of whatever flavour.
Framedragger: asciilifeform: i disagree. in
their mind, it is completely consistent
to do activism as
they are 'suppressed', etc.; so i don't see how
that would necessarily follow
mircea_popescu: lol
this shit. "The book especially defames
trans women who are attracted
to men, calling
them "homosexual
transsexuals" as if
they were men
themselves." ... which...
they aren't, because... reasons ?
Framedragger: asciilifeform: from skimming her bio, she went into activism after
tech career retirement, which followed ~quite a bit after~
the change. inferring cause-effect
there is imho stretching it ~very~ much. but
then, i haven't met her, etc.
mircea_popescu: now im gonna have
to read
that crap. why do i get involved in
these
things!
Framedragger: aha rightright.
that's about as much as i know,
tho
Framedragger: from initial skim of her bio, after gender change,
too
Framedragger: she's been quite productive
tho, neh? can't deny
that?
a111: Logged on 2014-02-21 23:57 asciilifeform: conway became
the personal nemesis of
the author
Framedragger: one lynn conway..
this name was mentioned here wasn't it..
mircea_popescu: Framedragger you know who was
the original
transgender engineer (and of course
the smegma stains don't mention her, because why would
they!) ?
Framedragger: used
to shy away from generalising based
this, i have
to admit. but it's such an accurate signal (what are
the chances
that
trans-crypto-engineer-sjw will be posting stuff related
to
the crpyto-engineer part?), it's mindboggling
Framedragger: > hm,
this other person rants about something-politics, can't even be arsed
to read. no content
Framedragger: > find interesting post; follow
to interesting person's
twitter; get suggestion whom
to follow, on
the surface it looks good (e.g. "also a hardware engineer", etc.)
mircea_popescu: group of dorks complains about
the rest of
the dorks doing
the guy a fucking favour.
mircea_popescu: dude, not going
to
their shitty "conferences" is
the best way
to a) get some work done and b) eat well.
mircea_popescu: i guess latest
trilema should be right up
their... alley.
Framedragger: (current convenience simply allows for "type message, give recipient, get back url
to send
to", and any additional stuff is ben_vulpes' et al. 'programm0rs like
to masturbate with complexity')
Framedragger: 1. it's why i asked, re. convenience, 2. yeah it's a
terrible idea, hm, and 3.
there was no intention
to do any encrypting/signing on
the server - god forbid
a111: Logged on 2017-04-19 10:47 Framedragger: asciilifeform: just fyi i am unable
to download /sadmods. i am using curl with no retry. no biggie, and i know you have more important
things
to do :)
a111: Logged on 2017-04-19 12:39 Framedragger: is
there a more convenient way of organising and/or sending pgpgrams
to irc folx? i have
http://p.bvulpes.com/pastes/iCXI2/?raw=true which is ~fine. (it'll complain about unsigned key if
target is such, and gpg will ask y/n
there. add `--trust-model always`
to gpg command if you don't like
this and like
to live dangerously)
a111: Logged on 2017-04-19 12:43 Framedragger: i could add www endpoint
to scriba which would
take in encrypt pgpgrams, and scriba would PM
them
to
target.
to avoid abuse etc., messages would need
to be signed,
tho. not sure how useful. (i'd maybe use
this. could pgpgram while not connected
to irc. maybe overthinking
this before impending gossipd)

☟︎ Framedragger: (then, just do `ep frame`
to encrypt
to my key e.g.,
type msg as per gpg, get paste url)

☟︎ ben_vulpes: odd because in what world is
that a "proof of concept", unless
there's some bass ackwards msft-trained IT snotrag 'ethics' line
that somehow justifies
the pretense
to proof of a video a
twelve-year old could have faked
ben_vulpes: where if i read correctly, chrome udp's passwords
to such services as gmail in such a way as
to 'encrypt'
them but still reveal
their length
ben_vulpes: "The Bindmans LLP law firm, acting on behalf of (green party, house of lords rep) Jones, contacted six of
those listed
to verify
their passwords...In response, five of
the six gave passwords
that matched
those given in
the letter and
the sixth was nearly a match."
mod6: grab
this quick, because I probably won't leave it up
there long.
mod6: this
time with ProcessBlock
took (time val) ms; db write wait (time val) ms; db read wait (time val) ms
mod6: alright, mircea_popescu & asciilifeform ; full offline eatblock
test is running again
mircea_popescu: nono, some beauty contest reject
that
then failed
to find her cocksucker career, went into congressional aide pretense.
mircea_popescu: i wonder how long
till we cycle back
to
that brunette fucktard, what's her name.
ben_vulpes: getting 51% signatures for each
trade? or...?
ben_vulpes: this implies
they'll run
their own rsk central bank
thinger?
