mircea_popescu: the first 'portal' would allow users to run read-only sql queries.
Framedragger:
mircea_popescu: yes, if by pipe you mean, bulk-import into VPS, not torture phuctor's own db 24/7.
Framedragger:
mircea_popescu: by db i mean a postgresql populated with phuctor data.
Framedragger:
mircea_popescu: asking for advice - should i include a note that should additional hosting resources be needed during the 12 month period, an additional grant (it'd include supporting data of course) may be sought? just to be transparent?
Framedragger:
mircea_popescu: i plan to set up a "phuctor results investigation dashboard". (iirc trinque or someone planned to do sth of the kind, but since this overlaps with the "check distinct banner amounts etc", i may as well do it properly). nothing fancy so as to keep it actually deliverable, but i have a plan.
Framedragger:
mircea_popescu: yeah, ok - i guess my point was that it'd be very horrible, but i suppose the chief horror is in the learned-unthinking-ness of masses. the rest is just aftereffects

mircea_popescu: anyway. the republic isn't poor. but it is very fucking difficult to get proper leverage applied.
Framedragger:
mircea_popescu: hmm. okay, i guess i get that this implies a wholly different approach.

mircea_popescu: Framedragger hey, i paid a grand via paypal for like 60 btc back in 2012. back then bitcoin was still enjoying the benefit of not having been popularized.

mircea_popescu: you have any idea what happened to vragnaroda ?
mod6: <+
mircea_popescu> hence the whole "i want time magazine to tell me how the shutdown relates to me" ie, "i don't want any data (ie, anything about objective reality, outside) i just want commentary, entirely baseless if possible." << haha
BingoBoingo:

mircea_popescu: pete_dushenski they seriously made that domain ? i thought was just bingo being memetic.
ben_vulpes: protests now outside congress and not casa rosada so that
mircea_popescu cannot debunk by stretching and walking outside
Framedragger:
mircea_popescu: it is actually nice to consider that all that paypal moneys i received for bitcoin in -otc were not chargeback'd. it's a nice feeling. but i suppose that's chiefly because 1) i hadn't done that many transactions, and 2) amounts were low...
jhvh1:

Framedragger:
mircea_popescu: i checked when gpg keys were registered
Framedragger:
mircea_popescu: well you did rate me "old timer" at first :p
Framedragger: interestingly, i believe that i first discovered this insane asylum by reading loper-os (presumably same as gabriel_laddel). it appealed to me straight away because i could relate on a purely technical level (inasmuch as a youngling can 'relate', etc.) [also, registered nanotube's WoT key before

mircea_popescu: this is all very time-convenient though. because : SEE Framedragger ? SEE ? how about now ? huh ? hm ?
gabriel_laddel:
mircea_popescu: sure, but I'd be generating a key on something that regularly connects to the internet.

gabriel_laddel:
mircea_popescu: 1. he can fly 2. he can do something useful for tsmr~ == get the CLIM-web thing up and running inbetween here and gossipd
Framedragger:
mircea_popescu: ties into (naive or not) hawala discussions, i guess...
gabriel_laddel:
mircea_popescu: no passport, but that sounds like a plan.
gabriel_laddel:
mircea_popescu: We're talking about masamune I presume (which sure, isn't really separable from CLIM)?
Framedragger:
mircea_popescu: noted. (that's actually a problem i'm always easy to be set off on a stupid rant, but it's harder to be constructive etc. not that this is a unique trait. and there's a superficial connection to the whole rant-y nature of things, that is:
Framedragger:
mircea_popescu: regarding the "let's do cicada" objection - there probably are several angles which one could counter with - is the main one basically what trinque said, i.e., it's a form of (dishonest, to boot) bait-and-switch, which selects for some $random_criterion and the latter may not at all translate into what's actually useful?

mircea_popescu: but it is reassuring to see that a century later, the menshevik-bolshevik debate is all happily chugging along.

mircea_popescu: read more like "i'm not smart enough for this one, try next door" to me :)

mircea_popescu: the attractor is the futility. the plain and unescapable certainty that if they succeed NOTHING WILL HAPPEN. the point about "yes white racism exists - it's white people hating themselves" isn't just some superficial flurry of rhetoric. it informs the deepest recesses of subconscious thought and minute behaviour, "if nothing happens then nothing bad can happen" is not just why sane kid chooses for himself "a goivernment job"
Framedragger:
mircea_popescu: objection against current republic outlook, or objection against being all snore-ful and despiseful while at the same time grumbling about republican efforts being slow and the republic being poor? :)
Framedragger:
mircea_popescu: i'm off home from work. will try to formulate sth constructive later

mircea_popescu: Up until recently it was practically impossible to become embroiled into any sort of dealing with the subgroup, their ownership being strictly assumed and their lives strictly subsumed by the corporations competent at dealing with the human cattle : fastfood providers, supermarkets, the government. Both as employers and providers these specialised bureaucracies have the necessary tools, including cattle prods (or what
Framedragger:
mircea_popescu: re. bdsm board, sure it could be, the latter, as i understood it, would be a general e2e encrypted forum board (permanent post) solution with signatures etc.
Framedragger:
mircea_popescu: curious - harder in terms of management, or in terms of technical implementation, or combination thereof?
Framedragger:
mircea_popescu: i don't know just how interested you are to find inexpensive modellers etc, but just fyi peopleperhour.com may produce...better results. (but yeah, not for five bux.)
