a111: Logged on 2017-06-21 17:08 asciilifeform: also gotta understand what the F in 'ffa' means. it means that N**2 takes exactly same time as N**N
mod6: this is outside the spec, but just as an experiment, what kinda timings do we get if you were to do inline asm for the W_Mul & Karatsuba procedures? is this worth doing?
asciilifeform: also gotta understand what the F in 'ffa' means. it means that N**2 takes exactly same time as N**N ☟︎
asciilifeform: main thing nuking the speed is the W_Mul thing and the fact that we copy EVERY split. the latter is not avoidable given as we ban pointers
asciilifeform: mod6: understand, we're still an entire order of magnitude away from being able to so much as miller-rabin.
asciilifeform: the INFURIATING thing is that, just as with the addition/subtraction carry bit (last month's thread), the compiler DOES NOT give us portable access to the upper word of MUL reg,reg
jhvh1: BingoBoingo: pajama boy :: An insufferable Man-Child. About as threatening as Michael Cera and so nerdy he could guest-host on an unwatched MSNBC show. The purpose of Pajama Boy is not to get people to buy health insurance, but to get a rise out of more powerful personas. [ex:] Pajama Boy is an insufferable Man-Child probably reading The Bell Jar and looking forward to a hearty Christmas meal of stuffed tofurkey. If (2 more messages)
asciilifeform: in all other respects, same semantics as previously.
asciilifeform: not as nice as needed
asciilifeform: i'd be surprised if it worked exactly same in man as in mouse
mircea_popescu: afaik the slavic notion of the devil is muchly indebted to a) the observation of lyssaviri in action and b) the passage about jesus and the herd of pigs. so they mostly understood demons as rabies agents.
mircea_popescu: kinda the whole story of socialism, as it happens. what the pantsuits are doing is === voluntary apnea, and what happens to them is always "well, you ran out of money, so back to capitalism whore!"
phf: or as my mom would say "перебесятся..!"
mircea_popescu: the "uncles" ie uppity aunts don't like it anymore these days, though. too much nigger in it, not to mention a very strong vein of "things are as they are not only because that's how they are but also because that's how tyhey should be".
mircea_popescu: i preferred twain, but the problem is twain wrote enough for a coupla weeks, verne for a coupla months. every day as a 10yo i'd come home from school, stop at library, buy another jv book an' go read it.
mircea_popescu rather suspects that actually star trek figures principally as the G in that MAGA. it really was the best of times, that worst of times, for all those involved.
mircea_popescu: there's many values. value as a negotiable is different from value as a usable.
asciilifeform treats btc as something like the fabled 'write-only memory'
asciilifeform: but if asciilifeform ever ~were~ to buy boat, or plane, it ~would~ be a used one, and will pay for it not only in reichsmarks but millimorts, because new is simply not on the table -- a new, e.g., sailboat thing, may as well be a starship
asciilifeform: would mircea_popescu describe the chassis of boat as 'moving part' ?
asciilifeform: incidentally 'industrial process offers a guarantee of sameness and conformity', 'natural decay DOES NOT' is not wholly given : there exists such a thing as turdalicious production processes, and -- on opposite end -- the 'bathtub curve' of winnowing
asciilifeform: i'll be sure to buy new b0at in china as soon as i learn chinese, get into cpcn wot, and obtain teleporter.
mircea_popescu: you understand this ? industrial process offers a guarantee of sameness and conformity, such as it is. natural decay DOES NOT.
mircea_popescu: normally this happens "privately" as per usg.freenode's notion of that, but since http://btcbase.org/log/2017-06-20#1672501 i figure what the hell, we can have one public day. ☝︎
asciilifeform: as used in fighter jet
mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2017-06-20#1672706 << they do. and not forget, http://btcbase.org/log/2015-11-06#1318952 as a stand-in for shit-academia. though i suppose obama would work just as well, "constitutional law scholar". read motherfucking constitution of ghana. ☝︎☝︎
mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2017-06-20#1672689 << the other major problem with "race" as a wholly-devoid-of-meaning anglotard subcultural construct is that... well... it's a brand, see. licenseable, negotiable like any other "negotiable instrument" ie paper money. there's no substantial difference between "Black & Decker power tools hecho en Mexico" and "African with tribal tatoo made in Chicago" and finally http://trilema.com/201 ☝︎
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform for as long as there's slop trickle in stable, pig won't find truffles in forest.
asciilifeform: 'as above, so below' (tm)(r)(the alchemists)
asciilifeform: something quite like it (ww2 crunch) created, e.g., su as industrial-power, for while that lasted
mircea_popescu: anyway, but back upstack : it'd be perhaps fair to say that it wasn't porn ~per se~ that changed the world from pantsuit to breathable. it was the fortunate situation that just as the chick in every young household had been exposed to other girls outperforming her, the dude could then afford a cam and so he could go "ok, get to work bitch".
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: as result, i suspect, of missing the 'silver age' etc, asciilifeform never imprinted on the various kabukis of the genre
erlehmann: (spoiler: goebbels was an angsty wimp, despised other nazis, described hitler as “his only friend”)
mircea_popescu: moreover, the internet as a not-apple-paysite even exists in the first place because it allowed its silver age ; and in so allowing also destroyed, of course, but different discussion.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform consider, if you're curious, the shift in the implicit social attitudes as reflected by mid 80s and late 90s sit coms.
mircea_popescu: erlehmann i don't think anyone alive made as much money per time, at the time. so in this sense i guess i was a fully professional... banker ?
mircea_popescu: (and, afore anyone asks, the porn ~~~PRODUCER~~~ ie what i did is the one who fucks when feels like, rather then as a group behaviour.)
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: hey, no need to even go as far as beijing, we have this right here in northern gringolandia
a111: Logged on 2017-06-20 18:20 phf: michael jackson rode on a tail wave of that, and really i would say that "everyone" wants to be michael jackson, but michael jackson wanted to be david bowie (not cause bowie is somehow good or superior, but because bowie was happening as jackson was rising)
trinque: I employ someone who was drummed out as "terrorist!!!!"
phf: situationists actually were very sensitive to that subject, and notoriously trolled anyone who would imply there is such a thing as "situation-ism"
asciilifeform: ( chinese folx are observably clever enough to sometimes signal 'we kowtow' without actually ~doing~ any such thing -- as per the infamous july '15 forklulz
phf: no, fashion as in fashion
erlehmann: phf fashion as in moral fashion?
phf: i think these fashions are a balance between youthful rebelling and popular things that are normalized as time passes. but the present "race" narrative has nothing to do with anything, it's simply a fashion conversation.
phf: michael jackson rode on a tail wave of that, and really i would say that "everyone" wants to be michael jackson, but michael jackson wanted to be david bowie (not cause bowie is somehow good or superior, but because bowie was happening as jackson was rising) ☟︎
mircea_popescu: yes, but this marks you as a minority.
mircea_popescu: i don't mean weird as in bad. i mean weird as in alien.
BingoBoingo: "No wonder the genetically superior brahmanas considered it the worst sin to so much as even lay their hands on obc gutter swines"
mircea_popescu: "if i can't get one to be mine in private, maybe we could get them to be ours as a group ???"
mircea_popescu: creoles (which is the name for two-ethnic mixtures, unless you prefer mongrels) are significantly more variant as a group than either antecessor group.
mircea_popescu: * deedbot gives voice to hanbot << somehow this struck me as quite funny :D
BingoBoingo: "Back then I looked at me being born as a good thing." << Lol
BingoBoingo: BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH Apparently Elliots are organizing themselves as a demographic! "How is that better than being ignorant? In some ways knowledge is more evil. Like the Asian women who write these “progressive” “feminist” articles about how they know its so bad being an Asian man, but sorry they also married a white man. Is that the model you are looking to, when you say you will be a WMAF who acknowledges racism against As
phf: building wot for all comers will suffer the same fate as pgp. since nobody's using it, it turns into an arms race of easy to use, or "innovation" also known as masturbation over technical minutiae. i sort of realized this when i tried applying tmsr solutions to my cypherpunk friends: "no we don't need to research the difference between signal and telegram, just encrypt it to my gpg key and post it on dpaste or whatever." eliminated all the technical di ☟︎☟︎
mircea_popescu: yet the difference between us, whereby when he asks for a difference i provide the difference, but when i ask for a difference he has nothing to show, is entirely lost on him. and this DOESNT suggest to him that perhaps he's not yet up to the task of comprehending such intricacies as might not be obvious even to thinking folks.
mircea_popescu: this is exactly what d-k is all about. think for a second : years ago when i specced this, i could just as well ahve specced it that way. what, you think the-people-who-matter need you to come by ten years late and show them the wheel ?
sn0wmonster: i was hoping to hear that it was decentralized, as in, nodes connect together to disperse and allow submissions to the reputation database without needing IRC or the website
sn0wmonster: in what ways (please name as many as possible) is deedbot patently different than #bitcoin-otc's gribble in terms of GPG/user ratings?
mircea_popescu: doubles as either garbage propeller or garbage disposer ?
mircea_popescu: people love to think their dumb shit is their own, yet a kid who's never been touched will "by itself" behave exactly the same way as an adult all the time no exceptions.
mircea_popescu: the whole "stigmatize criminal gang pretending to enforce law" is a true conceptual revolution, much more so than piddly efforts such as "destigmatize faggotry"
mircea_popescu: requires, however, actual judges, as in, white men, not obamas.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform as discussed, 100% of the whole "let live" ie, keep all the 8 males around is simply socialism support pillar. to have equality, gotta fetter manhood.
mircea_popescu: of course they won't, but reality is not part of the lincoln thought process. as alf says, studiously not.
shinohai: Ironic he writes this post as one of the biggest proponents of ETH out there
asciilifeform: incidentally 'будут приниматься на сопровождение в качестве воздушных целей' could read more accurately as 'will be tracked as aerial targets', which can mean anything from 'shoot on sight' to 'we'll make angry faces'
mircea_popescu: anyway. the (vehehehery unlikely) alternative is that the usoviets blather in a warlike direction and as a result the russians beat the chinese to the punch of "first usoviet aircraft carrier sunk".
shinohai: Also appears they shut down the communication line to coordinate airstrikes as well.
asciilifeform: ( 'from this moment on, in the sky of syria, ru aviation will treat any aircraft belonging to the west's international-coalition, such as are found west of euphrates, as aerial targets'
shinohai: Yeah was just discussing ups with mod6. I haz generator for extended outages" but ups would be nice as well.
shinohai: I view it as another "what not to do" moment .... add research better surge protection to my todo list
shinohai: Tree fell across power line AND cable as well
asciilifeform: STILL NOT IN CONSTANT TIME because apparently mother dropped him as a child
asciilifeform: same reason as china
mircea_popescu: which has succeeded in one aspect : i see india, generally speaking, as a sort of latrine. probably because of these.
asciilifeform: 'lilavati' seems to translate simply as 'she-playful-one'
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform yes because the human cattle aspires to one thing above all, and that is to be relieved of the downside of agency while getting to keep on the sly as much as possible of the upside.
diana_coman: I kind of doubt the story is *true* as such, so there is that
mircea_popescu: diana_coman i know of no culture outside of the chtonic-inspired anglos who deemed pregnancy as a negative.
mircea_popescu: but let the record reflect that it strikes me as the height of batshit insane psychosis to fail to fuck and then misappropriate mathematics into one's psychosis.
asciilifeform: afaik the ancients actually bought the 'propitious time' thing. it was as real to them as 'launch at the right transit time of the orbits' is to modern rocketeer
mircea_popescu: diana_coman when i was about three, they took me to a doctor. it was like a kinda mysterios affair, and it made no sense as i was not sick. the doctor asked me what do i do if i'm hungry ? and i told him i eat. he then asked me what do i do if i'm sleepy, and i said i go to bed. that was it, and everyone was impressed because apparently no fucking kids ever have any sense left.
diana_coman: might as well say people who cared.
asciilifeform: enlarge hole in chassis as needed
asciilifeform: as in weekly
BingoBoingo: There's still reel mower as long as you can get traction on your turf
mircea_popescu: great for your back, and from experience as fast as the crapomachines
asciilifeform: ( they are right here, as we speak, devouring )
a111: Logged on 2017-04-30 13:58 asciilifeform: 'If I employ a gardener, I have to earn £3 for every £1 he can actually spend, because everything is taxed twice, first as my income, then as his.' << not only still true in today's reich, but today it'd be 10 : 1 .
mod6: post, most seem to now use this "dex-cool" stuff which is pink or orange. you are not supposed to mix them, no. and as bb says, can introduce rust into the water jacket of the block.
asciilifeform: btw iirc this is an ~actual~ exercise in knuth -- to show that you still need karatsuba on a box where add(word,word) takes same time as mult(word,word)
mircea_popescu: if single - word mult is same as add, there's no benefit to not simply multing the parts.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: actually it remains relevant even if single-word mult is (as it is on some boxes) 1 cycle, same as add
mircea_popescu: mod6 because (a + b) * (c + d) = a (c + d) + b (c +d) = ac + ad + bc + bd. now, in our case, we were doing 11 * 11 and so a = 10 AND c = 10, while b = 1 AND d = 1, and so if you replace you yahve 10 * 10 + 10 * 1 + 1 * 10 + 1 * 1. because 10 * 1 = 1 * 10 you can just write it down as 2 * 10 * 1.
shinohai: http://btcbase.org/log/2017-06-16#1671180 <<< 'tis correct, though I am still working on switching it to lispbot as time permits. ☝︎
asciilifeform: receiver samples at the carrier freq (typically 40 or so kHz), and then processed as serial bits.
asciilifeform: concept is usually taught in re radio but applies just as readily in optics -- say, the common infrared remote button
mircea_popescu: which, as i told sina, certainly fixes something : it makes it so that common people can't spy, but nsa still can.
mircea_popescu: whereas as alf aptly points out, the waywards of the world attempt to spit-fix this after the fact.
