shinohai prepares

mircea_popescu: and now i shall proceed
to put
to electronic paper my definitive solution for global warming - both
the current hallucinated kind as well as any other.
trinque: clearly was just
testing her new FUCKGOATS

thought it was weird
that english speakers use 'daddy' but not 'mommy'
jurov: venus colonization is most feasible in
the atmosphere,
there's a layer with ~20C
temperature, ~1atm pressure, breathable N2-O2 atmosphere is lifting gas, you can have 30hour days by surfing jet streams ...

there's not much discipline on unix with stderr/stdout. particularly gpg seems cavalier with it. so i wouldn't even bother with error/output separation. i'd make it always return a single value, string
that's combined stdout/stderr, and fail when status code is not equal
to zero. maybe add a key argument,
that splits
them if need be, but only once
there's need.
mats: huh, upon closer inspection, it looks like rent and housing prices are declining in
tw and hk
too
mats: its not really specific
to hk or
tw, and
tw is actually more affordable comparatively
mats: davout: well, its actually getting cheaper
to live in, say, sf or boston, in
the short-term, due
to high rises going up

http://btcbase.org/patches/hashes_and_errors#L118 you don't really want
to do
this. you're subseq'ing
there
to strip
the a/ b/ but
that's not at all a guarantee! i have a vpatch with `diff -ib -ruN /Users/pf/cmucl20d-build/src/hemlock/abbrev.lisp src/abbrev.lisp` in it for example. at
the very least you want
to abstract it away into its own function.
that would correctly operate on a hashed-path datastructure.
davout: mats: hows
that specific
to
these places?
mats: i'd like
to move
to hk or
tw before i'm 30 but it seems
to be getting more expensive all
the
time
mats: its not as bad in
the city
mats: eyeballs on me all day when i'm on
the cape
ben_vulpes: chinese moms control
the purse strings
mats: but now i miss it, funny how
that works
ben_vulpes: well i was going
to ask if you were in
the boston cn wot
mats: if i'm being honest i wanted
to get away from
the massive numbers of asians
ben_vulpes: dunno
that's
too far outside of
teh bubb
ben_vulpes: old money moderately interesting if you're
trying
to marry into it
davout: "In addition
to
the headline finding,
the study also discovered
that
the more women earn,
the greater say
they have over
the family's financial management." <<< such finding
mats: didn't
turn out
to be
that different,
the new money here is just young white dudes
that wear brooks brothers instead of uniqlo
mats: i gtfo soon as i was an adult,
to live outside of
the reality bubble
ben_vulpes: also are
talking fathers, husbands, sugar daddies or 'beta buxx'?
ben_vulpes: mats: does 'mommy'
typically hold
the purse strings among yr people?
mats: i've always
thought it was weird
that english speakers use 'daddy' but not 'mommy'
☟︎ davout: go
to
the salon, get some other woman
to do it for her
ben_vulpes: i have utterly nfi how women put up with all of
the ornamental crap
ben_vulpes: in retrospect,
the expensive part is having mismatched nail lengths
davout: yeah, googled it, got "Reticulating splines |
The Sims Wiki | Fandom powered by Wikia", wtf levels increased :D
davout: i don't get it,
the expensive part for me is "finding
the nail clipper", not
the "clipping nails"
ben_vulpes: sounds like davout
thinks "just
trim your hands evenly, weirdo"
ben_vulpes: compulsive nail
tidying is 2x as expensive if you do both hands
davout: what do you need your nails for
then? get yourself a pick or something
a111: Logged on 2016-12-28 05:20 ben_vulpes: guitarists who
type a lot: do you always
trim both hands?
ben_vulpes: mats: what kinda
timeframe are you biting your nails over?
mats: betting on btcusd not going
to 1k is
turning out
to be quite
the nail biter
phf: yes, but you never do, also it's (run "foo" nil) or if you insist (run "foo" ())
though
that last one looks funny
BingoBoingo wonders how many hamplanets need be flung into Venusuvian orbit in order
to make a credible moon
that spins
that bitch around faster.
ben_vulpes: still means one has
to (run "foo" `())
phf: in
this case, if you want
to avoid
the warning and not fuck with muffling, i'd stick with (cmd args &key input). fwiw
that's what sbcl's run-program does already
phf: ben_vulpes: i
think best way
to answer
that question is
to read a lot of existing code from different backgrounds (pre-2000s code, famous people code, etc.). my rule of
thumb is
that you use optional if ~at call site~ it's still obvious what
the argument means. otherwise you promote it
to keywoard. (run "foo" `("-p" "bar")) makes sense, but (run "foo" `("-p" "bar") stream) you start guessing. is it input stream? is it output stream?
BingoBoingo starting
to
think
that mebbe Venus just needs a moon
ben_vulpes: which brings me
to: "when positional, and when keyword?"
ben_vulpes: asciilifeform: aha and
the isis men kept
trying
to fuck
the goats :D
ben_vulpes: a shit i'm going
to have
to rewatch
this.
phf: not enough reverb. i always
thought baliset being a 70s instrument, considering
that
they had
those portable source of energy in
their shields, would be a kind of guitar moog
BingoBoingo: <asciilifeform> mircea_popescu: iirc
the longest-enduring venus probe croaked after 1h. from overheat. << Or corrosion. Place requires ph balancing
ben_vulpes: some 1.5 years back i leapt off
the couch and demanded a hand-held instrument
to awaken dormant pathways
ben_vulpes: i play at least 30 minutes 4
times a week
ben_vulpes: guitarists who
type a lot: do you always
trim both hands?
