mircea_popescu: anyway, the kenyan's legacy is one of the lulziest lulzfests in lulzhistory. so, he came to power on a mandate to close down gitmo, which he didn't do, and to roll back bush era power grabs which he didn't do. instead of doing what he promised he decided to do other things!
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform anyway, let's sit down and make something sane for this guy. peterl i mean. what's his message supposed to be like ?
mircea_popescu: all comes down to "what are you gonna tattoo, world too complex"
ben_vulpes: tee so the thought police cracked down on the dood behind the (entirely wackily formatted) http://gizmodo.com/exclusive-heres-the-full-10-page-anti-diversity-screed-1797564320 : https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2017-08-08/google-fires-employee-behind-controversial-diversity-memo
mircea_popescu: 1. phf is walking down the road ; 2. phf perceives something in river ; 3. phf goes to help ; 4.a. phf discovers it was scarecrow, unloads helping module ; 4.b. phf discovers it is muscovy and he's from lvov, unloads helping module ; 4.c phf discovers it's his brother AND CARRIES ON.
r0nin-: mircea: ever going to settle down and set roots somewhere? or ever forever the jewish digital nomad

asciilifeform: extra infuriating detail -- i dun specifically need x86 for this , trb runs ok on arm. BUT all extant arms have soldered down (and insufficient) ram.
asciilifeform: also problem is the soldered down ram.
asciilifeform: ( they clock it down to sata2 )
asciilifeform: looks like we're down to exactly 1 ~working os, folx...
asciilifeform: eventually they shrunk ~whole thing down to 1 die ( + crapple mac 'quadra' for support ) and bankrupted to dead in the process.
mircea_popescu: but this is a node further down the tree.
BingoBoingo: Hard to tell till the accumulation of cold bodies start slowing down.
trinque: will have a few things to chew on re: trb once this walletbot sits down.
trinque: maybe they're down atm
phf: perhaps if it was my only thing to do, but i would still probably find myself staring down a barrel of a nagant at some point
phf: i know trinitr0n personally, and i also spent time on #bolix a year or so ago, but snr went down, and now it's mostly tr0n's personal shit talking place, so i just communicate with a handful of people from that channel who i think are useful by other means
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: there's a substantive function, in transistor-poor era , to break down high level lang into the type of ops realistically fittable into silicon
ben_vulpes: iirc i pulled the whole shebang down with a wget --give-me-everything-no-seriously-recursive-too so it's a big ??? for me
mircea_popescu: that + olive oil pretty much the only way to make tomatoes go down the throat in quantity.
asciilifeform: ( nfi why went down, linux is 'helpful' as always )
asciilifeform: well, say somebody sat down an'... wrote one
mircea_popescu: and tha tschmuck, what's his name. the fat kid, "son of boss" whatever. he's a terrible actor and drags the whole thing down.
phf: the translation could be "what the hell. you guys lost it? why did you build so much stuff? break it down no matter what. - no way, why? it's not such a bad work, why break it down?"
a111: Logged on 2017-07-14 16:47 mircea_popescu: aaand trinque, incidentally, as it just occured to me -- can you get deedbot payments online by the end of the month ? seems somewhat likely usg is gonna turn off its "webwallet" bullshits from blockchain.info down.
finitemaz: Not sure if I fell down a rabbit hole
a111: Logged on 2016-08-12 16:05 asciilifeform: 'suppose you drive down the highway and you suddenly want to go some nice place you saw just before you pass a forest. you veer off the road, plunge into the wilderness and promptly decide that you need four-wheel drive, a huge cutting device in front of your car, much better shock absorbers, a bigger engine that could actually run on swamp water instead of getting all drowned, and then need an amphibious vehicle to get across the r
ascii_wtf: zoolag ( same box ) also down until i can physically get to where it lives.
mircea_popescu: so, if dude is running down the street throwing benji confeti, you pick up ?
a111: Logged on 2017-07-06 15:09 mircea_popescu: which is how every god damned kid that was sexually abused through the process of socialist schooling (which is all of them -- education is education, and socialist school is definitionally sexual abuse of all children involved) ends up with the idea that newton sat down TO discover whatever he did (unimportant, really) and THEREFORE he did.
asciilifeform: trilema down?!
asciilifeform: 'Homeland Security Investigations is strongly committed to tracking down criminals who seek to strike at the foundations of global financial security through complex money laundering schemes' didjaknow.
mircea_popescu: phf the noise isn't even the subject. there's two kinds of girls : those who go, and those who do not go. this is established afore the fact, and NOT at the party. now, a party with the later, no matter how timed or where established, be it "night of the demons"-like or simply a rural "community center" church dance, will NOT yield fucking. period and full fucking stop and jack slow down and etcetera.

trinque: also btc-e still down, massive wad of coins on the move?
mircea_popescu: ir lawyers to arrive. That’s actually why it’s so filthy. I was just looking to “troll” a big studio. Then, as I began editing the radio play and boarding it, the two characters ended up becoming something different than just a bad impression of Doc and Marty from BTTF. They slowly became two of my favorite characters that I’ve ever voiced. I backed down on the cease and desist bait and changed the spelling of their
asciilifeform: now cut it down the middle vertically, and walk left to right, and you get the 32 bytes.
mircea_popescu: but the point : there's always winds. whether men blow the winds against the mechanisms, and create the prison card playing world ; or whether mechanisms blow the winds against people, and create the "company policy" and us office, there'll still be wind, and there'll still be some towers, and some ground down mounds were other towers could have stood.
asciilifeform: it nicely illustrates the down side
mircea_popescu: aluminum will go down to 5 micrometers np. this means 1k pages book = 5mm = 1/5th inch thickness.
mircea_popescu: if you will. happens everywhere though. divine boy will make the girl let all her articles of clothing go down the river one by one, and spend the rest of the weekend naked among the trees. base boy will be struck with the girl's beauty, marry her and raise her children.
mircea_popescu: as the wise jew once said, "here's a bunch of pennies, let god keep what he needs and let the rest fall back down"
mircea_popescu: it's not "most eager whores". it's whether 15 yo is "i will burn down the fucking house while you sleep rather than not follow these guys".
mircea_popescu: !!down daffadil
asciilifeform: ave1: consider writing down the recipe for this
mircea_popescu: all the usg experts, from gavin down, were from the get-go paid in fiat to see what they can do to further fiat interest in the republic ; no more.
ag3nt_zer0: might anyone help me with this question? I created a paper wallet using bitaddress.org transferred to little airgapped raspberry pi... not wanting to print on my wifi capable printer, I chose to write down the numbers. Now I am wanting to get my coins the hell off coinbase before the nonsense and am concerned that my private key is legit. so, I learned that I could go back on bitaddress.org, offline of course, and click "wallet de
mircea_popescu: o we're down to "most people know" ? i thought usg shares were firmly at "everyone knows" ?
mircea_popescu: "put down the fork and eat no more... eat no more..."
erlehmann: (conceptually, at least. non-scalable 8x16 / 16x16 glyphs all the way down.)

BingoBoingo: http://trilema.com/2011/marea-afacere-cu-tuns-iarba/#comment-56455 << Lawnmower blades usually come from factory painted dull for our safeocracy. Idea is paint wears down and deck gets disgusting which discourages curiosity by the time sharp edge is exposed.

asciilifeform: what happened to 'learn langs even if you gotta hang upside down, like odin'
andreicon: looked down on by a very skeptical observer

mircea_popescu: fine, 10 grams, takes you down to 30 gigajoules for the trip.
shinohai: as opposed to going down ~3-4 times a month as it does already?
andreicon: that site is gonna go down may 2018
asciilifeform: maybe right place is 3 doors down
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform consider the following point : girl confronted with http://btcbase.org/log/2017-07-02#1678254 and my plain and clear isntructions broke down in tears, because, in her own estimation, couldn't understand what she's supposed to do. because had no idea whatsoever how toilet works, imagined it has something to do with electricity, so of course it can't flush if there's no power. ☝︎
andreicon: !!down andreicon
mircea_popescu: it is the standard all other brews measure up (or more often, down) to
BingoBoingo: <mod6> apparently. although, i recently read that illinois just had to shut down their lotto service ... and powerball pulled out of there? << It's back now. The General Assembly had to suck a lot of other state's dicks, but it's back
mod6: apparently. although, i recently read that illinois just had to shut down their lotto service ... and powerball pulled out of there?
asciilifeform: even if you cut the problem domain down to simple storage - turns out, tricky
mod6 sprays down the whiteboard
asciilifeform: phunphakt -- if you nail down, to a fixed bitness, the N-arity of the arithmetic, you can unroll all of the loops.
asciilifeform: relatedly, after adatronic 'p' is fully nailed down and flying, i'ma bake one in x64 asm.
mircea_popescu: the problem is again one of synthesis, someone gotta sit down and write that scary text. not the one to which there's nothing to add, but the one from which there's nothing left to remove. "here's how a discovery protocol goes".
asciilifeform: ( the other detail, of course, is that the idea of standardization went along with a distinct odor of 'lion and lamb sit down to agree on dinner' in those days . or consider microshit-led 'opendocument committee' etc in more recent times. )
asciilifeform: naturally you can still stuff these down a wire. and the box, of course, did so ( to disk, tape, 'chaosnet', etc.)
mircea_popescu: i dun have a general suggestion, perhaps just sit down with the whole thing and make an actual data diagram thing ?
mod6: oh yeah, those are the hardest to track down. i find myself having to search for very specific words and hope i find it.
asciilifeform: is mel is the fella from the old poem, who 'we buried him face down, nine-edge first' ?
sina: ok, thanks for validating mircea_popescu, tearing down the shithost
sina: 'ma tear down the shithost
mircea_popescu: to briefly revisit http://btcbase.org/log/2017-07-07#1680050 : the fact that us cattlehead consumption power dropped about 80% in the past three decades (ie, since the 80s, ie since http://trilema.com/2015/other-peoples-money/ or in other words since the political decision was made to simply give up, lay down and die) is ALSO remarkably absent from the fanfics. ☝︎
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform it just sits there. there's no transition on a roof. if anything, the lack of transitions is calming, which is why jumpers can notoriously be talked out of it. make no sudden gesutres, let him take in the outdoors, he';ll climb down.
mircea_popescu: have you ever seen an idiot stop in a doorway ? because his brain simply shut down confronted with the transition ? "oh, room. outdoors. whoa!"

mircea_popescu: revisiting the above "progress" great lie of socialism : just as eg wikipedia parasithizes (see alf/naggum re how this works) the encyclopedia space, turning whatever it can steal into "wearenotbegging for donations", just like github tries to accrete "wild" work into something they can sell down the road to the bezzlevestor, just so school in the socialist state (as designed by trotsky, stealing from bismarck) works also on
phf: asciilifeform: there's different kinds of optimizations. you can nail down the types and get a complete type signature of your code. i don't think there's any shame in it
mircea_popescu: haven't yet managed to pin down what teh absolute requirement list for a cycle is though.
phf: yeah, this version is straight spec implementation (in fact if you search for (fhf mp ...) that part should directly correspond to spec wording). only optimization i did was to keep the S reallocations down
lobbes: mircea_popescu, hehe. I was thinking of implementing that once n00bs start using the thing. Make it Wot-based at some level; disabling auction service for people lower down in WoT once delinquent x amount of time

sina: from reading https://stackoverflow.com/questions/12593768/how-is-lisp-dynamic-and-compiled it looks like GNU CLISP compiles down to bytecode, which I guess will be probably performance equivalent to pypy
mircea_popescu: i suppose i could break down and put in... SOLAR PANELS. dun dun dun
mircea_popescu: of course it still gets wet when it rains, and sandwiches still fall butter face down
mircea_popescu: i dunno anyone who'd turn down her rsvp.
