mircea_popescu: can as well lose btc for playing games.
erlehmann: asciilifeform djb never replied to my emails as well. i asked fefe about it and he was like “that guy has tenure, he does not care, people had to pester him for years to make his stuff public domain”
mircea_popescu: at least the kgb 2.0 is as bumblingly self-absorbed as the original.
erlehmann: phf i have worked on existing protocol. the grammar codifies the assumptions that you as a programmer make. take an ENUM in the input, for example. grammar should only contain values you know you can process right.
mircea_popescu: so far this seems ~same as what led eulora to having open bots. they are programed in... literal c.
asciilifeform: make cannot handle much of anything; i use it as a multi-knobbed bash, essentially
erlehmann: experimenting with a medium-size C++ project (liberation circuit) i found that there can be as much non-existence dependencies as “normal” dependencies
erlehmann: as always, make is shit and can not handle this
mircea_popescu: actually in my youth i deemed as the highest achievement in literature a situation where multiple parties participated in a conversation that admits an interpretation for each.
erlehmann: full recognition before processing, as they say
erlehmann: i understand the “many small independent implementations” idea, but does the republic have a grammar for vdiff output? i am sure this is faulty somehow, as it contains neither a recognizer nor an unparser http://news.dieweltistgarnichtso.net/bin/vdiff
mircea_popescu: the guy strikes me as dumber than rocks, but what do i know.
deedbot: http://qntra.net/2017/05/fiat-wraps-up-miserable-may-as-malaise-reaches-new-lows/ << Qntra - Fiat Wraps Up Miserable May As Malaise Reaches New Lows
gabriel_laddel_p: trinque: there is no error to paste. Nothing is missing, nothing shows up as missing when I strace it.
mircea_popescu: but the supposed "fear" merely translates a desire, which is the desire to be not-different from the rest. which... hey, everyone's entitled to be plain, boring, lame an' as ordinary as their wife can stand.
mircea_popescu: you know how it goes when you get the flu and ancient cold sores also flare up ? bitcoin climbs, as a result all sorts of http://btcbase.org/log/2017-05-17#1657609 / bs "feel involved" and relevant and whatnot. ☝︎
asciilifeform: imho idea is approx as realistic as the space ship in same -- but entertaining yarn nevertheless.
a111: Logged on 2017-05-30 20:48 asciilifeform: could be that academic sees letters from plebe as 'hey, a talking goat'
mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2017-05-30#1663444 << eh, what difference does it make. as i tell derpy girlies at least weekly, "you had your chance." was there more to it than that ? ☝︎
pete_dushenski: asciilifeform: thx for looking into the problem from your end as well. s.nsa with the custom-o-service!

jhvh1: BingoBoingo: 'The Choom Gang ': 9 juiciest details from Barack Obama's days as a ...: <http://theweek.com/articles/475179/choom-gang-9-juiciest-details-from-barack-obamas-days-pothead>; Obama and His Pot-Smoking ' Choom Gang ' - ABC News: <http://abcnews.go.com/blogs/politics/2012/05/obama-and-his-pot-smoking-choom-gang/>; A User's Guide To Smoking Pot With Barack Obama - BuzzFeed: (1 more message)
lobbes: Although, he does paint the accurate picture of the us population being destined to become slaves of nobody-in-particular. Just labeled as "UBI"
BingoBoingo: Police have opened investigation because opium deaths are now treated as murders by drug dealer. For some reason though I have a feeling Hussein Bahamas will not be taken into custody by Trenton, Illinois police for his role in growing Afghan opium imports.
mircea_popescu: just as good.
asciilifeform: meanwhile völkischer beobachter does not disappoint , https://archive.is/ja4zY >> 'At Brown University, more than half the 49 allegations of academic code violations last year involved cheating in computer science. ... At Stanford... as many as 20 percent of the students in one 2015 computer science course were flagged for possible cheating'
mircea_popescu: be that as it may, human female will be fifty something to seventy something or thereabouts. if you like big tits and big asses you'll be at the 70s side of it. 100kgs is really excessive even for adult males.
asciilifeform: but i have nfi what mircea_popescu keeps as 'inpatient' pets.
mircea_popescu: the problem is not really "carrying capacity" in any objective sense, but carrying capacity of pretense, as discussed in http://btcbase.org/log/2017-05-24#1660840 ☝︎
asciilifeform: even a soap seller could be portrayed as 'defrauding the crown with inferior soap' etc
mircea_popescu: so if it was the pile of wealth that "bent space and time", you'd have had swiss cucks cca 1810, rather than have them provide vatican guards as the respectable manly troop the us marine core tried to copy.
asciilifeform: as for 'pecunia non olet' countries, how about panama.
asciilifeform: as described on snsa www.
asciilifeform: iirc mod6 you posted a few dd outputs, it was always 7-8 as per spec.
pete_dushenski: "The researchers investigated two fossils of Graecopithecus freybergi with state-of-the-art methods and came to the conclusion that they belong to pre-humans. Their findings, published today in two papers in the journalPLOS ONE, further indicate that the split of the human lineage occurred in the Eastern Mediterranean and not - as customarily assumed - in Africa."
a111: Logged on 2017-05-30 04:38 pete_dushenski: mod6: openbsd commands worked! thx muchly. though i'm still getting crazy low bitrates with fg. consistently under 1000b/sec and some runs as low as 100b/sec.

mircea_popescu: right, the law became complex as interest in legality plumeted.
mircea_popescu: to my eyes that's still a match : inasmuch as there's no actual terrorists actually bothering with it, the "dept of homeland security" may continue to departmentr of homeland securitize about.
a111: Logged on 2017-05-25 14:05 mircea_popescu: danielpbarron you gotta have a talk with your client, it's not ok to cut your overlong sentences, must send as multiline.
mod6: ymmv as far as the device name... just thought this might help someone
mircea_popescu: consider the more obvious / discussed in the logs case of "nuclear war preparedness". if you model the us cca 1960 as the existence of two tribes, type a which didn't believe there's imminent risk of nuclear winter and type b which did believe there's imminent risk of nuclear winter, the fact that type b doctrine included "no need to separate from type a, we can just have some shit bolted on" allows random population member X
Framedragger: (see as you scroll, it adjusts the location of the blur. genius)
a111: Logged on 2017-03-27 19:31 asciilifeform: as ben_vulpes knows well, in usa bureaucrats have personal immunity for ~everything they do on the clock (unless they get purged by the party, in which case they become liable for anything and everything, but this helps you 0 )
mircea_popescu: judging by the weapon, i take this was a white man opressing innocents as opposed to black man righteously punishing dnc defectors ?
mircea_popescu: the notion that someone somewhere takes the rappaports & "allies" seriously is so fucking alien it fails to even register as obscene. but it fucking should, because it fucking is.
diana_coman: I still read that thing as one of the 10001 atrocious "story - advertisement" shit that I can't stand
mod6: I read through ffa, and it 'makes sense' to me as far as what you're doing in most cases -- as I understand the intent of the expressions. but i stand in awe, especially after trying my own hand at Ada, at what you've produced.
mircea_popescu: as it happens, dumbalf wishes to spend all its time, and if possible everyone else's time, engaged in the following infantile game : it will spend about half a second to come up with some strong statement that's evidently false, entirely predicated on ignorance, pure nonsense. then he'll defend it tooth and nail, for hours if need be, exploring every nook and cranny of stupid shit that could be said to defend stupid shit. thi
asciilifeform: (given as inside we have Z : Words(0 .. Optional) ! )
asciilifeform: mod6: somewhat relatedly, chased bug in ffa for a ~week : wanted to make FZ.Z a trimmable ( e.g. length set as optional param ) so as to enable karatsubaization (which does 0 useful without being able to, for it and nothing else, constrain the lenght of FZ)
mircea_popescu: anyway. the problem with wine is that better wine and expensive wine do not well correlate. for the past 40 or so years europe sat on a lake of wine. you can have perfectly fine wines for the cost of the bottling, you can also spend as-much-as-you-want for idiot veblen americana.
ben_vulpes: that's about as much thought as ive put into disposing of my spoils
asciilifeform: and it isn't as if the original golden toilet of this genre, 'segway', had not bombed
asciilifeform: BingoBoingo: walking on new street not long ago i saw an old tin shed that looked as if it had ~imploded~
IamAGirlsoInever: I'm testing various implementations and social networks as well. Trilema is definetly interesting.
IamAGirlsoInever: ok, spam then, don't know what will happen though, prolly get ignored as it should.
phf: all three of mine are in book boxes (i just moved) but they definitely have cyrillic (as well as all the other friends of the people, e.g. al khwarizmi spelled in arabic, japanese etc.)
phf: tex is like a handful of carefully crafted tools with gb's of liquishit™ on top. "we have this elegant vpatch of a carefully crafted solution" "can i use it?" "lol nobody uses it, we have a modern option with unicode! and lua! and packages! comes as a GIT REPO!111"
gabriel_laddel_p: and also to demonstrate that "oh no, FG can't be sold" is in the same bucket as http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=22-01-2016#1381606 ☝︎
asciilifeform: ( http://btcbase.org/log/2017-05-24#1661136 is probably as close as anybody could hope to get, to it ) ☝︎
jurov: idea: what about providing fuckgoat output in realtime, as tcp stream. maybe i'll do when i get some
trinque ranks "I live in an arena where men stand on their names." as only dream
asciilifeform: cryptocompromise as a 'manageable risk' under any scenario is imho lunacy.
mircea_popescu: not at 0.1 btc, certainly, but as mod6 points out, not 0 either.
shinohai: That entire site is a lulz farm, and was proffered as the easiest way to do gpg on reddit darknet,makets page
trinque: asciilifeform: in re beggers and target market, folks did get rich owning the world, as mircea_popescu said
mod6: i can't know who would want this, but i'd imagine i wouldn't discriminate on who would want it. just as long as they PAY.
mod6: and as far as "sample" perhaps that's not how it works. maybe like via trinque's thing or something. but i agree, there is some sort of model here.
mircea_popescu: 7393bd23794cf8175da5d2dd3f3bb47a7c340bf20cc6ef1f5dd871204119d86988e37b0e32c9b7665a05bd3912a8f83f3bebe3c2c7fc20ff177219ef35c47c25 << random number based on curl http://btcbase.org/log/ | sha512sum ; as primo as it gets!
asciilifeform: no, they get ~same amount as if paid.
mod6: maybe charge by the byte, or jiggabyte. something. have to figure out what the market is willing to bear as a price tho.
mircea_popescu: might work as a bot service. esp once trinque finishes payments.
mircea_popescu: jurov actually does request as forwarded from your ip.
asciilifeform: as soon as you mention 'regatta' you're dealing with entirely opposing engineering tradeoffs.
asciilifeform: by same logic, say, mircea_popescu drinking fine whiskey is -ev -- he ain't getting any fatter, martian farmer looking on earthlings as cattle will say 'why this fine specimen is being fed non-nutritive thing'
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform it is, yes. same -ev as feeding your pets is.
mircea_popescu: yeah, there are exceptions, such as notably "trainer items". you can buy sportscar kits these days for instancer, so rich kids can graduate from getting lego set for 6th birthday to getting a carbox on their 16th. by the time they get it together they have a permit too.
asciilifeform: incidentally pretty good analogy -- a handful of very rich ~and eccentric~ folx had personally-owned pdp8, say; but many in fact thought 'computer is neato, but only good for accounting, i'll buy one for office', just as mircea_popescu immediately went 'yacht is for whoring, wtf, idiot, to think of living in one'
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo if ever driven into land -- doubles as house.
mircea_popescu: generally this "Finish at home" thing is very much related to fan extraction (as per http://trilema.com/2013/youre-the-guy-who-wasnt-good-enough-to-sling-dope/#selection-73.120-73.157 ) in the sense that only items which are not actually ev are offered in this way.
asciilifeform: ( as was found during the prototype run )
mircea_popescu: works out in practice as well as it does. anyway -- nothing wrong with poor man's solutions, iuf understood as such and used as part of an actually figured out plan.
asciilifeform: actually i gotta agree with mircea_popescu on this last one, i do not properly grasp why it is popular as a pleasure vehicle
asciilifeform: same as ferroconcrete.
mircea_popescu: just consider the sad circumstance that you don't like x because of y property you happen to have heard of ; but you have no clue z has problem p. as a for instance, nobody seems to have ever mentuioned to you that plastic boats have a very fixed "open sea" time. and if you knew what it was you wouldn't like it. which is why rich people still buy wood yachts for pleasure.
asciilifeform: how about mircea_popescu's mental habit of believing that the gods themselves made the sea as a toy for the rich,
mircea_popescu: as i said, the principle of technical improvements isn't at issue here. your miserable discoursive and i'm starting to fear mental habits are.
asciilifeform: has mircea_popescu ever built so much as a dog house with own hands?
phf: afaik they already build boats out of abs (cheap leisure boats, entry level yachts, as well as high end competitive stuff). in all cases it's different abs, and not necessarily stuff you buy from conveyer (stuff you buy from conveyer cracks)
mircea_popescu: eh, again with this. no, boat != wood. boat AS DEFINED BY ALF, however, = wood.
asciilifeform: as for epoxy, it is same one as in everybody's toolbox.
asciilifeform: as substitute for idiot veblenwood.
mircea_popescu: as a substitute of drywall.
diana_coman: not against it as such, but as ...alternative; not the end of the world etc
diana_coman: but he is what he is and it's not as if I don't know the thing
mircea_popescu: you can't have both of these at the same time, and duck behind one or the other depending which vein of solutions for your entirely psychogenic issue masquerading orally as a "technical problem" are being suggested.
mircea_popescu: raking said "i will use nothing but wood" yourself, as such.
jurov: *sigh* i keep getting calls from an UK number, as far as I understand, he's asking something about coinbr, when I ask them to come to irc/email he just says thank you. can't even fucking text, and not possible to call back
a111: Logged on 2017-05-25 09:48 diana_coman: BingoBoingo, the cucumber plant was actually quite a hero: made dozens of cucumbers BUT it grew them to full size/ripened them *one at a time*; not an easy task apparently to make wholesome things even under rather favourable conditions as it were
