mircea_popescu: and no, you CAN NOT establish if X is or is not "master" by reading the orders.
mircea_popescu: there is some value in the "go reinstall windows for the 11th time". the only issue is, who gives the order.
mircea_popescu: a vast majority of the great she-cooks i know (younger than me) started their cook life by being made to cut cabbage, and beaten for cutting it badly. and made to cut more.
mircea_popescu: if you equivocate between master and idiot, don't expect me to be able to say much
mircea_popescu: i have no idea. are they or aren't they ?
mircea_popescu: i blame the whores that fucked the drunks to spawn them.
mircea_popescu: they usually do not, which is indicative of just how badly brought up they are.
mircea_popescu: in many a young man's life, it's the first time when someone says "DO X!"
mircea_popescu: prolly the principal value of #b-a.
mircea_popescu: jurov your "older dudes" are simply idiots. what he meant was "people who know this"

mircea_popescu: trinque this is exactly it. to use my spiffy new js quote, http://trilema.com/2014/patriarchy-is-a-thing-because-nobody-likes-living-in-a-world-populated-by-little-girls/#selection-115.29-119.225

mircea_popescu: "finding one's way" and whatnot. all the way through the 90s
mircea_popescu: ascii_field i'd say "wow, check out the weird divide between eastern europe and the us", but it's not it. tons upon tons of livresque reference to this exact thing, in english too.
mircea_popescu: what, you thought it wanted to be pots and pans ?
mircea_popescu: biodiesel.
mircea_popescu: weird.
mircea_popescu: trinque well entirely different consideration, this. i was looking at it from the subjective perspective. nevermind what the world tells you to do. why the fuck are you telling yourself to do things you're clearly no good for ? it's as if at the orchestra auditions everyone wanted to play the instruments they sucked at.
mircea_popescu: not in your experience ?
mircea_popescu: ascii_field for as long as i can remember, the entire point, of school, and of intellectual activity of young people, was to find wtf they're good for.

mircea_popescu: who was here from conformal, i forget ?
mircea_popescu: contrary to what the guy claims, the bugs he found appear to be in the power rangers "consensus" library, not in conformals'.
mircea_popescu: "TLDR I ran afl-fuzz against libbitcoinconsensus to discover interesting Bitcoin scripts and used them to search for Bitcoin reimplementations vulnerable to forking. This discovered two bugs in btcd by Conformal. See the bitcoinconsensus_testcases repository for the discovered Bitcoin scripts." ☟︎
mircea_popescu: it looks so badly like water poisoning you can't imagine.
mircea_popescu: ascii_field dude i must have missed some memos here. last i recall, that was pretty much the only point of interest. i blinked and now everyone seems to be running around trying to pretend like they can do things they most obviously can't.
mircea_popescu: trinque how you mean ?
mircea_popescu: "why do you think you're an olympic athlete ?" "~~~BECAUSE~~~ I'm a quadriplegic. If I weren't, I wouldn't give a shit about the olympics, like everyone else."
mircea_popescu: nobody goes "you know what ? maybe this shit's really supposed to be done by someone who, unlike me, is not actually an imbecile."
mircea_popescu: guy in the oval office'd be best suited to carry heavy loads. stuff like that.
mircea_popescu: just because some twerp is in the doctor's room at the hospital doth not mean he's a doctor.

mircea_popescu: it's just elbrus for the rest of us.
mircea_popescu: (obv null and undefined each get their own special equalities)
mircea_popescu: that's what i like about "typed" languages, you know ? if (i = "" or i =="" or i === "" or i = 0 or i == 0 or i === 0 or i &= null or i ^= undefined) fuck your mother.
mircea_popescu: and 0 and "" ?

mircea_popescu: ascii_field the only reason you're not walking through walls is also, that you're pushing with the strength of a child.
mircea_popescu: "gold standard for everything else"
mircea_popescu: bitcoin is the gold standard for everything else. that's actually what the word bitcoin means.
mircea_popescu: o, they be pushing.
mircea_popescu: you don't want the hard sort of thing you're thinking about. you just want an impredictable sort of tandem.
mircea_popescu: ascii_field fuzzily, is the point.
mircea_popescu: clearly the largest use of tandem computing in the history of humanity, by any measure, by a very fat margin.
mircea_popescu: orly ? so how do the bitcoin nodes tandem ?
mircea_popescu: intent being the general mark of impending failure.
mircea_popescu: ascii_field success comes from a very patent absence of intent.
mircea_popescu: it's so stupid it can not be expressed in other words. "x86 sparc"
mircea_popescu: right.
mircea_popescu: anyway, you KNOW most elbrus will be running excel in govt offices. so yes.
mircea_popescu: (this is not as lulzy as it sounds. there MUST be a fractal pattern somewhere that also makes a machine)

mircea_popescu: you use a 0day now, you burn it.
mircea_popescu: give it a coupla years, they won't even be able to fix anything anymore because of deployment
mircea_popescu: ascii_field they're prolly looking atm.
mircea_popescu: but i suspect too early yet
mircea_popescu: there is some residual interest in exploring this thing, because it will definitely become the standard in ru bureaucracy, and knowing its holes will allow us to complete our collection of michelle obama cockinmouth.jpg with all the random hos putin manhandles.
mircea_popescu: so basically they can only sell to rug.
