danielpbarron: heh so not child abuse but "hey! stop
trying
to get my farm equipment pregnant!"
mircea_popescu: "how old does he have
to be before
the risk of punching you out, burning your house and fucking your wife and daughter outweighs whatever useful labour you may extract out of him" is scarcely a cogent basis for discussing how old must be
the girl before you can buy her.
mircea_popescu: since
they weren't about
to start castrating boys (mostly because
the crown wouldn't let
them ; otherwise us southerners very much DID, and would again if could)
they had
to give up on
them at some point and let
those "indentured" servant "contracts" expire.
mircea_popescu: the magic number 18 has a lot more
to do with historical extraction. people wanted
to get work out of children ;
there's a soft spot where
the uncastrated animal becomes more
trouble
than it's worth.
ben_vulpes: hence
the magic number (18!!!) with exceptions (unless you're both under 18! except if we want
to
try you as an adult!)
trinque: that's actually
the claim dangerous fag guy made which causes
teh scandal
trinque: pedo
tends
to mean quite a bit younger, eh?
mircea_popescu: pedo marriage still
the norm, go
to india,
the middle east, wherever.
mircea_popescu: at
this point it is strictly impossible
to distinguish between us "progressive" and a woman
that's been locked into a house with preteens for
too long and simply snapped and lost her mind.
mircea_popescu: it's not just a case of "it's our democracy when we do it and corruption when russia does it" ;
the linguistic shenanigans are at
the very core of libertard program. "it's denying victim
their living experience when you
tell susan j fowler or whatever other coreboot-broad-of-the-day
that she's just not very birhgt and didn't work very hard ; but it's nothing when dangerous homosexual etc"
BingoBoingo: Well, what can
they do without vocabulary?
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo and funnily enough
they don't CALL IT
THAT, either.
mircea_popescu: hence all
the discussions re "fags got
their weddings, pedos are next".
☟︎ mircea_popescu: a good chunk of
the "psychological damage" of what's known in
the us as "child molestation" and in
the rest of
the world, both geographically and historically as nothing in particular has
to do with
the batshit insane reaction of
the environment. substantially
the EXACT same cause driving psychological damage in "abused children" as used
to drive psychological damage in "mentally ill" aka homosexuals. it did get
turing
to kil
BingoBoingo: Still, big media
that hates frat-rape is denying victim his lived experience!
mircea_popescu: oh and
to get back on
the qntra
topic :
that
the molested child enjoys
the experience is neither shocking nor
that uncommon.
BingoBoingo: Then he let his politics flag fly. Should have
the money
to do it.
BingoBoingo: He started some
tech rag "The Kernel" he sold
to DailyDot
BingoBoingo: 4srs, about
time Milo went independent again
trinque: I suppose next
they'll egg George W's house
trinque: left is on
the move, people!
trinque: lol, first flynn, now
teh 'dangerous faggot'
mircea_popescu: but anyway,
the sheer insanity of
this, you know, dork who supposedly "is a ceo" and "we something or
the other billions of dollars something or
the else other companies corporate business like real men and with suits!!!1" nevertheless has
the fucking
time
to go on campaign
trail. and
the absence of mind
to do it AFTER
the election.
mircea_popescu: ben_vulpes depends who you ask. according
to
the average 2oish yo "stem" imbecile, he's a role model.
mircea_popescu: who would, upon hitler winning unexpectedly, drop everything he was doing and start "talking
to people" ? wernher von braun or joseph goebbels ?
ben_vulpes: i
thought he was a blogger scraped off some other vc firm's shoe
mircea_popescu: btw, check out what altman does with his
time. does
this look like
the job of an engineer or
the job of a politruk ?
mircea_popescu: apparently one bad usa is africa"
track
they listened
to back in '85 constitutes enough basis
to ignore scientific research for
these schmucks.
a111: Logged on 2017-02-21 19:58 asciilifeform: in other lelz, 'The White House repeatedly refused
to mention Jews in its Holocaust remembrance, and had
the audacity
to
take offense when
the world pointed out
the ramifications of Holocaust denial.'
mircea_popescu:

to graduate
the You Are Not
The World 101 class at
the School of Hard Knocks. probably signals
the need for special ed,
they've been stuck on
this entry level subject for years now.
☝︎ mircea_popescu: this directly links into
the "garage chemistry =
the fundamental articulation of western world", or, give everyday fellow powerful
tools
that
touch
the root of
the world.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform>
to continue: what portion of cpu
time is spent verifying ultimately invalid blocks? <<< yes, yes and yes, altogether a proper STATs module should very much be part of stock
trb, and very helpful if it were.
mircea_popescu: ben_vulpes lulzy pieces.
they kind of remind me of 1980s items.
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: Bastard 0.7 ish node corrected will patch
trb nodes at convenient
time,

a111: Logged on 2016-12-05 16:54 mircea_popescu: i can't even recall who was in cadsoft prior
to sale.
ben_vulpes: i don't mind
the arcana, it's what a holistic understanding's made of
ben_vulpes: it should be doable
to 'getpeers' from
the nodes from which a
trb gets a block and
then attempt
to
traverse upstream, no?
ben_vulpes: asciilifeform: what's
the alert
they're
trying
to send?
mircea_popescu: originally, miner code got split off
the main satoshi base sometime in 2011.
there was a lot of back and forth between pre-trb prb node code and
the node code miners used, but not
that much in
the past few years.
ben_vulpes: no but no
trinque miners run cutting edge stuff only
trinque: seems
to me you'd end up closer
to miners
ben_vulpes: in re "nobody over
there even does anything"?
ben_vulpes: neato asciilifeform, i will get
this into rotation
mircea_popescu: trinque can't hurt, if it knows its
txid at
that point
trinque: for other folks
to note
time until seen
trinque: I wonder if it'd be useful for deedbot
to say a
txid when sending.
ben_vulpes: heh hadn't gotten
to "who hears
tx first",
that'll need umpteen nodes
to do properly unless i misread
the situation.
mircea_popescu: but he was benchmarking "who hears
tx first" and
that
type of
thing
trinque: I just keep
tabs on it and give it a restart when
trinque: deedbot does lag
time
to
time
mircea_popescu: ben_vulpes do
try
the above patch, may actually bring you back above waterline.
mircea_popescu: trinque should be more interesting
to see what it does
to mimisbrunnr
trinque: we'll see what it does
to deedbot
trinque: lel, was just building
teh snip-snippy myself
mircea_popescu: if you recall during
the original blackhole debate,
this was
the argument in favour of "at fault is
the broken node code"
mircea_popescu: this is (at least by my lights)
the result of running node on vps. interface optimizes

turned, now
they hafta survive winter of dorks. dun look so well for
them, but we see.
mircea_popescu: hantomcircuit") find it harder and harder
to cling on
to
their pretense actively.
mircea_popescu: as
the "business" (in
the sense of pretending
to sv vc,
that sorty of
thing) portion of
the larger prb ecosystem is running into a very marked bitcoin winter (recall, bitpay axed most of
the crew a year ago),
the ramen support for
the "tech" side of prb (various mendacious scumbags like luke-jr, assorted imbeciles like
taaki or

the entire customer base

mircea_popescu: the poor situation of
the shambling abomination is
the deep reason for repeated humiliations delivered recently
to blockchain.info for instance.
mircea_popescu: the shambling abomination started life as
this "optimization" by blue mat
that others (esp
the ones
trying
to have shit work, rather
than engaged in pure github livejournalry) clung on
to. but
then it got discontinued
