mircea_popescu: seems evident
the correct solution is
to get
that proper lisp bootstrap i was discussing with phf and
then re-write emacs in it.
mircea_popescu: "The number of people aboard who can matter-of-factly hack
the Emacs internals on
the C level is consistently going down, and is already so small
they can be counted on one hand. We must make Emacs depend less on people from
this small and diminishing group, if we want
the development pace increased or even kept at its current level." <<
this is a very solid point.
mircea_popescu: it also makes 0 sense for it
to be a c piece of code, but
that's a discussion for another
time
mircea_popescu: well, from a system design perspective. it makes 0 sense for emacs
to actually save c machine state.
mircea_popescu: actually from what i can grok from
that piece,
the proposed solution (dump unexec, move on
to saving elisp stack) is actually an improv meent
jurov: asciilifeform: iirc anything past 0.10.x won't speak with
trb
trinque is humoring, yet n00b must be encouraged
to start at
the beginning
trinque: yalehasaquestion: various creatures of ill repute have been bolting all kinds of insane shit
to
the codebase formerly known as bitcoin for years now
shinohai was about
to ask
the same question.
yalehasaquestion: I am interested in understanding what
that is, however I'm not much of an expert on such
things
jhvh1: shinohai:
The operation succeeded.
yalehasaquestion: would it have something
to do with
the fact
that I'm running core 0.13.1?
yalehasaquestion: hey, I'd like
to know, I've been running a listening node, and I added 46.166.165.30 as a peer -- but I don't look like I'm connected
to it
mod6: jurov:
thanks for pushing
that one
through and
taking care of mailman.
shinohai: I've used --data-raw
to good effect and didn't get newlines stripped
mircea_popescu: well,we had
this
thread (iirc you brought it up), came out it was fault of machine.
mircea_popescu: all
this
to see george monbiot
try his best
to sell
the "our fake citizens groups are for real and everything else is fake" line.
mircea_popescu: meanwhile according
to reddit,
theguardian.com is a respectable source and qntra.net is
the spamsite. because
totally.
mircea_popescu: meanwhile
the idiots at
the guardian made a begging banner which has an X
that is not connected
to anything, just drawn on
the banner itself.
mircea_popescu: i have no idea why. shipping for isntance
takes 3mo + and apparently
they prefer it
that way.
jurov: such slow process is anathema
to anything industrial
jurov: i have read
that
tobacco must be dried slowly (like, a month) otherwise it retains more sugar which burns nastily
mircea_popescu: re water pipe -
the liquid is infrequently changed, certainly not often enough
to maintain co2 solvency
BingoBoingo: jurov:
the linked eclipse
thing is cigarette shaped fiberglass reinforced paper
tube
tipped with charcoal. Is a lulzy
thing best not stuck in mouth.
jurov: so, it all looks
to me one part of
tobacco industry FUDdind an other one
jurov: i'd prefer
that all way
than burning sugar, menthol and zillion other additives
they put
to classical cigs
jurov: ever seen water pipe? it uses charcoal puck,
too. and CO isn't very well absorbed by water (unlike CO2)
BingoBoingo: Last major incarnation of
this was stick full of
tobacco where small charcoal disk burned for maximum carbon monoxide exposure
jurov: though
they do make smoke, but smells good, unlike classical cigs
jurov: nope, e-cigs are a
thing here
mircea_popescu: ahahah warren called mnuchin
the forrest gump of
the financial crisis.
mircea_popescu: so it is vaguely possible hillary&friends actually have some sarin in say new york subway, not just at
the bases of
their jenissary in syria.
mircea_popescu: to be perfectly fair :
the dems
tried
to set up bush
the bomb in exactly
the same manner in 2000 ; and
then
the democrat-alligned osama set bush
the bomb fo reals.
mircea_popescu: the odds of
the syrian situation blowing up into actual war ru+tk vs us+iran (but without nato) are actually non-trivial by now.
mircea_popescu: whatever his plans, desires, choices whatever, it seems absolutely certain
trump will have a major depression on his hands ;
to
the
tune of "70% of
this country's wealth evaporated overnight ; wut do ?!?!"
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo not just inflation. yields are higher and growing rapidly ;
the dollar is strengthening and stocks are going up.
this is
the classical desperation run-up
to black
tuesday.
mircea_popescu: srsly,
the world is now a us-iran partnership
trying
to stand up
to a russian-turkey alliance while a very horny europe is drooling cunt juice on one side and a rather geeky china is holding its distance on
the other side.
mircea_popescu: (iran,
the us's only apparently remaining ally in
the world, decided not
to participate)
mircea_popescu: basically now
that obama's out,
the saudis finally agreed
to cut
the flood ; oil jumped like 10% after
they announced.
mircea_popescu: <BingoBoingo> Seriously not a single attempt
to read any of
the linked content
to develop context on
the venue << i dunno dood, "the serene republic of somalia" etc.
they be
trynna.
mircea_popescu: mailman rose up in arms against
the very list it was supposed
to return ?!
jurov: mod6: looks like mailman crashed, after restarting it delivered fine. Last
thing logged was:
BingoBoingo: Anyways,
the best part of light satire is
trolling
the people who in
their hearts want
to believe with us but can't because idiot redditards.
