mircea_popescu: and this isn'
t even getting into the whole layer of "i make a webcomic about shit i don'
t grok" "famous" retardation
BingoBoingo: I am finding similar results. Seems email isn'
t functional for anything but "subscription" market that was never subscribed to
mircea_popescu: from experience, famous doods aren'
t worth the paper they'll be buried in

t stay in touch), and fixed all kinds of weird threading issues by effective use of semaphores etc, which is nothing special, but the result is just so damn easy to read

t cover yes - yes, shame on me - hashrings). as well as coding style (yes).
Framedragger: trinque: she agreed that "yes i was quoting here because i liked the quote, didn'
t understand in depth", many times, while at the same time i didn'
t think it was all nonsense. i would have to dig up to actually provide examples, which i suppose yes would be nice.
Framedragger: i don'
t mean easy as in lazy, i mean that there was no point for the historical bad to be so clumsy

mircea_popescu: there's nothing whatever wrong with "woman took me to sushi. it was a restaurant, she didn'
t even cook it, or work there, or pay. and yes people have been having sushi far longer than they've been having hamburger but it was my first time and i'll always remember her fondly, notwithstanding she died of an overdose while trying to rob a kindergarten at gunpoint (she thought she was inside the bank next door)."
a111: Logged on 2017-06-30 15:20 Framedragger: this ad hominem (some ad hominems are completely valid, that i understand) is orthogonal to technical knowledge and its conveyance to other people. i know that there is no apolitical knowledge and you maybe can'
t separate the two, but i think sometimes it's possible, to an extent.

mircea_popescu: (as an aside, i don'
t expect any of these fucktards, gilmore, bernstein, whatever, even remotely give enough of a shit about anything not tittlating their anal orifices, BUT! it'd help me fucking immensely if they actually were in, because of sybil considerations. but they dun wanna, becausew why should the world not stink.)
mircea_popescu: it sounded like signal processor at first, but then it kinda went bent. wouldn'
t this be damned slow ?
mircea_popescu: in practice, "what's this tank worth" doesn'
