mod6: You see, when I've
tested
this in a single edge graph system -- a simple
test vpatch set,
this problem doesn't occur. a->b->c->d->e, remove 'c', and you just have a->b -- my current implemntation does
this fine.
mod6: However, when I
try
to press, I realize
that
this is actually incorrect, or I ~think~ it is incorrect.
mod6: I expected "asciilifeform_dnsseed_snipsnip.vpatch""asciilifeform_zap_hardcoded_seeds.vpatch", and "asciilifeform_zap_showmyip_crud.vpatch"
to be removed from
the flow.
mod6: So basically,
the deal is,
that when using
TRB, I have one user in my wot, say "mod6", and I drop out a vpatch from
the flow, say "asciilifeform_dnsseed_snipsnip.vpatch" by moving it's seal
to "asciilifeform_dnsseed_snipsnip.vpatch.mod6.sig.foobar",
then I expected a few
things
to happen.
mod6: I've created some new
tests and all of which have been looking good. But
then I noticed what seems like a problem on
the last, new
test,
to implement. In fact, it was
the last step of
the last new
test.
mod6: While implementing automated
tests for
the wot-variant changes for V (99994) last night, I ran into an issue.
mircea_popescu: i figure if he sticks
to it people will slowly migrate
their schedules.
mod6: <+mircea_popescu> "weds 14:00
to 16:00, phf's lisp class". <<
this would be pretty cool actually. i'd attend if I could get
the
timing right...
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform i
think your reading
there maps more
to feeling
than
to history.
mircea_popescu: why did you get
the idea ru peasant spent
time "indoors" ?
mircea_popescu: i seem
to recall early modern ru having one of
the lowest capita per area of all
the world.
mircea_popescu: such bizarro notions. really, because dork can't
think it
then follows
that mp can't be right and nature will go out of its way
to accomodate ?
mircea_popescu: because why,
the only pick-up line he knows comes from dunne ?
mircea_popescu: it's funny how each little churchlet of
the "reason&science" persuasion has a very carefully not named devil or
two.\
mircea_popescu: the cnn-made alt-"putin"
that
the us invaded itself by ?
mircea_popescu: there is ~no source of energy available in any sense outside of
that.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform random nonsense aside, i also don't believe fusion is +ev in a practical sense. obviously if you can be arsed
to gather
together enough hydrogen you get your own star for free. but
that's about it.
mircea_popescu: usg came up with idea of hiding
the
tax burden under spurious headings, dorks imported it somehow.
then
ten years later "obamacare is not a
tax". sa mori
tu ?
mircea_popescu: what's with all
the idiots counting "regulatory cost" as a
thing in
the first place ?
mircea_popescu: at issue isn't whether
they're systematic or systemic ; but whether
they're projective.
mircea_popescu: we might mean different
things by organised. i don't mean what is meant by "systematizing" in eg "systematizing delusion"
mircea_popescu: and fwiw my reading of orlov is very much in
this vein, which is how he keeps evaluating
to below 0 in my hands. perhaps counterintuitively for more neutral readers.
mircea_popescu: that right
there is
the whole shebang in one reference-ladden sentence.
mircea_popescu: there's intelligentsia and intelliglantsia. both equally bankrupt pseudointellectual endeavours, although on superficial examination "opposite".
therefore, lettuce
teach
the controversy!
mircea_popescu: afaik it spawned actually straight out of
the whole "hide caches of $stuff in yurp" programme.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform yes ; moreover i'm
talking about a very specific "intellectual"
thing. not in any sense intended for mass consumption. intended for perenity.
☟︎ mircea_popescu: i find it quite amusing
that esr
tried
to do ~exactly what i just did, except with much more rudimentary
tools and with much less interesting results. idiots living among idiots ALSO has a cost eh.
mircea_popescu: anyway, it's impossible
to hide
the albright from any of
this. but
then again
they don't specifically aim
to hide it from us, secure in
the knowledge
that
the orcs it's addresses
to entirely lack
the receptors in
the first place. which is
true.
mircea_popescu: well, it's complicated. and obviously nonsensical on
the face of it, which is why it's being approached very gingerly. and also why
the poster child of
the whole movement, its sam altman if you will, is
this ex physicist
turned "philosopher".
mircea_popescu: roughly speaking
the gambit would be described as "knowledge is evil in
that it bestows power, only
through neutering
the power element may it be rendered pure", something after
this fashion.
mircea_popescu: not exactly ;
there's a particular vein of competent orc being developed here.
mircea_popescu: re
the soros book : it's not
terrible,
there's a certain political bent
to it but i expect you're immune. like how human doesn't catch most rat viral strains.
mircea_popescu: a decade ago
this shit used
to be a bad joke at best. now it's all
the maga
that's left.
mircea_popescu: the same fucking BEIGE. everything gotta be beige,
that's how you know it's
the future.
the same inept fucking "actors",
the same literotica-level scripts,
the same blergh.
mircea_popescu tried
to watch "her", which supposedly is a movie. it is not. it's a fucking "movie 2.0". it's like
these contemptible imbeciles agreed everything in cinema must have rounded corners now.
the same inept muzak, a dude on a cello or a piano or a single instrument going SINGLENOTE SINGLENOTE SINGLENOTE SINGLENOTE SINGLENOTE.
this is now music.
ben_vulpes: wyrdmantis:
that's
three reconnects
today, stoppit
mircea_popescu: "why didn;t
they do it sooner!" "cuz
they didn't feel like it!" "but why did
they do it at all!" "cuz
they felt like it!"
mircea_popescu: london sewer was not by any means first in world ; but how do you distinguish between
the l1 of london building sewer and ben_vulpes making me slut bot ?
mircea_popescu: yes. but i
think it's very informative
to examine it from angles.
mircea_popescu: the price for its light is a definite limit in
time ; it will eventually grow hot.
mircea_popescu: what do you mean why. because you want
to exclude items
that match it.
