ben_vulpes: sounded complex and unlikely
to find a home between
traditional
turbine and rel-style multimodal rockets
a111: Logged on 2016-01-20 03:44 asciilifeform had 'tricks of
the unix masters', old maculature crud, on his shelf as a student, and an actual greybeard saw, asked 'where is your 'tricks of
the doom masters'
to go next
to
this'
trinque: ah,
thought ya meant
they were eaten by fighter manufacturers.
ben_vulpes: fwiw, intel holds
that several 'important' (i cannot evaluate
that) forth greybeards have been distracted by very strange flugencraft
ben_vulpes: you've even said
that chip speed is
trumped by coherent semantics
to
the bedrock.
ben_vulpes: well i read it as "forth chip by chuck moore" and
that's more appealing
than anything else i've seen.
ben_vulpes: and in other NICs: "A software-defined full duplex 10baseT Network Interface Controller is implemented as a
team of nodes controlling
transmit and receive signal pins directly.
The signals are conditioned by minimal electrical interface circuitry. External
transmit
timing is used.
The
team is designed
to function as a memory-mapped device but may be stripped down for direct use by other node
teams."

the igloo2 product line have something hilariously wrong with it a la apu2?
mircea_popescu: ben_vulpes "put
this OVER
THERE" except over
there 519s
mircea_popescu: what, everyone wants
to write
the bootlegger's guide
to $object, because it's such a funny recipe, you just add water in
the shape of own drool and presto, another cracked.com article ?
a111: Logged on 2017-01-10 03:30 mircea_popescu: i'd rather
try
to rescue drunks.
mircea_popescu: dude
they have a "person" page, "superintelligent shades of color blue" ?
ben_vulpes: half
the
time i bounce
through cliki i end up in a loop of
this pointing
to
that pointing
to some Person page pointing back
to
the
totally uninformative original page
ben_vulpes: asciilifeform: does
the igloo2 product line have something hilariously wrong with it a la apu2?
☟︎ mircea_popescu: you can
train a bright monkey
to do plenty of
the
things off
that list ; but
the intelligent can not be helped.
mircea_popescu: and ftr, a somebody who is or is suspected
to be smart enough
to have done stuff and hasn't isn't
thereby above someone who is
too dumb
to have done anything. on
the contrary, and deeply so.
gabriel_laddel_p: and can I substitute it with working out
the
ternary circuts I asked adlai
to do?
gabriel_laddel_p: mircea_popescu: am I allowed
to respond
to people who reference me in
the logs?
mircea_popescu: now stfu of your own accord before you have
to be stfu'd
through even more effort from people who, unlike you, do
things.
mircea_popescu: yeah
this is not particularly useful. gabriel_laddel_p you're in no position
to a) challenge anyone here ; b) hurr durr about what you've done. you've done nothing, outside of being yet another of california's loud bums.
trinque: I am not
the one begging with hat in hand.
gabriel_laddel_p: trinque: what _exactly_ have you done with your life
that makes your advice so worthwhile?
trinque: the saner and more beneficial path is
to learn.
gabriel_laddel_p: if you don't want
to hear what I've got
to say, just negrate me, !!down and be done with it.
gabriel_laddel_p: As such, I concluded
that my rating was (in your view) "teh last straw!111!
gabriel_laddel_p: trinque: I see no one could interpret my rating of BingoBoingo as crying/flailing, and
the only "ship" of mine people here have attempted
to right is Masamune.
trinque: gabriel_laddel_p: I didn't say a
thing about lisp.
phf: though apparently it's been gone from
the web for a while now
gabriel_laddel_p: you programmed atop
these machines for how many years before discovering lisp?
trinque: you should feel honored
that folks spent as much
time as
they did
trying
to right your ship.
trinque: gabriel_laddel_p:
the crying/flailing has gotten old by now.
a111: Logged on 2017-01-10 02:34 mircea_popescu: who
the fuck reads biographies of mathematicians.
mircea_popescu: i cant readily
think of any less interesting subject of a biography
than a mathematician. if
the dude spent his life in solitary confinment with pen and paper it'd make nary a difference.

that chickens are just as cognitively, emotionally and socially complex as most other birds and mammals in many areas, and
that
there is a need for further noninvasive comparative behavioral research with chickens as well as a re-framing of current views about
their intelligence."
a111: Logged on 2017-01-10 00:44 BingoBoingo: pete_dushenski: Well gotta keep
the record of excellence in
the log so we can point gabriel
to a minimum viable residence
phf: (this is
totally unrelated, i just don't feel one way or another about subj. when i was in my early
twenties i also adopted mannerisms. i agree
though, is not becoming of ~adult~)
phf: seems like a math grad
thing. i know a handful of people who do shit like
that
mircea_popescu: now
this said, more in
the general he does have a
tedious self-promoting
tone. i expect it's scar
tissue from years spent in us corps, among idiots disinclined
to naturally bow
to
their betters.
mircea_popescu: just, he doesn't know how
to speak, because not educated [in
this field] and consequently
trades
the offending of
the many for
the offending of
the few. obviously a bad deal.
mircea_popescu: but
the piece says "dumbass does NOT have a say in how her daughter is used."
a111: Logged on 2016-08-18 13:58 asciilifeform: y begin
to understand
that a hacker is someone who resembles Eric Raymond. Dave Winer has recently and mercifully moved his essays off
to audio, but you can still hear him snorfling cashew nuts and
talking at length about what it means
to be a blogger[7] .
These essays and
this writing style are
tempting
to people outside
the subculture at hand because of
their engaging personal
tone and idiosyncratic, insider's view. But after a whi
mircea_popescu: lol "same neuroanatomical substrate". nobody knows anything anymore do
they. "cpu and beach are made of
the same granularoabrasive substrate so
there may be a secret place
to plug in every beach. more non-invasive searching for
the beach power cord is in order."
pete_dushenski: asciilifeform: i'll save
that story for another
time. it's a gooder.
pete_dushenski: ben_vulpes: eh
theory prolly wasn't unique
to byron anyways. greeks likely had it.
ben_vulpes: the memory fabricator is in full swing over here. wants
to say
that it was a
tome
that fell out of a moldbug piece but i really have nfi.
pete_dushenski: ben_vulpes:
that conclusion only lives here, ie. between
the lines.
ben_vulpes: the one, but
that's probably not right.
ben_vulpes: pete_dushenski: and somehow
the conclusion
that "most humans are barely over
the cognitive
threshold of a farm animal" never presents itself
ben_vulpes: i can't remember who it was (byron? meep, no clue), but held
that "before long,
they'll be wanting rights for cats and dogs, cows and hogs"
pete_dushenski: "In particular,
the avian forebrain (the part of
the brain involved in problem-solving and other higher-order cognitive capacities) is actually derived from
the same neuroanatomical substrate as
the mammalian forebrain, providing more potential evidence for similar cognitive capacities in
the
two groups (Jarvis et al. 2005)." << see ? just like you and me.
☟︎ ben_vulpes: animal rights has been
the funniest joke about progressivism since before women were even up for
the franchise
pete_dushenski: "My overall conclusion is
that chickens are just as cognitively, emotionally and socially complex as most other birds and mammals in many areas, and
that
there is a need for further noninvasive comparative behavioral research with chickens as well as a re-framing of current views about

☟︎ pete_dushenski: inb4 'birdbrain' becomes a compliment in
the 4th reich
BingoBoingo: pics coming after sobertime.
This was
the
teaser.
BingoBoingo: In other news, adventures in furniture making have begun. Bookshelf started and completed in ~2.5 hours. 47"
tall 23" shelves, plantation raised monterey pine, held with 2-1/2" construction screws.
ben_vulpes: handcrafted benzo, cheap
to maintain fuckinlol
pete_dushenski: ben_vulpes: you could surely get a deal on a dirty, beat-to-shit g-wagen. from what i hear
they're not cheap
to maintain
