mod6: There are maybe a few others that will help
as well; maybe a rawtx signing function, and maybe something that decodes rawtxs, maybe also some script decoding?

as a state mechanism, with grants etc came about.
mircea_popescu: and this is how "science"
as a state mechanism, with grants etc came about.
☟︎ mircea_popescu: this observation is strengthened by noticing that if what passes for idealists such
as yourself or me
as "legitimate" science (say, qm) chokes, ~science itself~ will produce "science" at the same rate, but of the "earth sciences and climatology" ilk.
mircea_popescu:
as you can see, there's deep reasons why the socialist state (ie, the social machinery of lies) to depend and pretend from the "scientific progress" ie the theoretical machine of lies.. the whole arrangement is predicated on "we eat and science guy will come by later and settle the bill" for this very reason.
mircea_popescu: i suppose we start calling nigger assets masquerading
as "scientists" trickers from now on, on the basis of you know, "a trick" being "slang" for "a clever and legitimate technique". you know, "in science".
mircea_popescu: breaking global temperatures, the email was widely misquoted
as a "trick" to "hide the decline"
as though it referred to a decline in measured global temperatures, an accusation made publicly by the politicians Sarah Palin and Jim Inhofe" << the wikipedia unhappening of the original global warming fraud is nothing short of astounding.
mircea_popescu: "The most quoted phrase took words from an e-mail of 16 November 1999 written by Phil Jones which referred to a graph he was preparing
as a diagram for the cover of the World Meteorological Organization (WMO) statement on the status of global climate in 1999.[203][204] Jones wrote: "I've just completed Mike's Nature trick of adding in the real temps to each series for the last 20 years (ie, from 1981 onwards) and from 1961 fo
phf: right, trivial
as specified, unrelated to shooting self at foot
ben_vulpes: "fixed peering"
as in "connect to these and only these IPs"?
phf: card works
as good
as chinese caliper. cut to GOST 7114-54 within +-0.7mm of allowed error margin.
trinque: point is projects
as evaluations rather than that kind of baseline shit
mircea_popescu:
as in eg, king has seven sons, who shall inherit the throne.
mircea_popescu: phf ikr ? but for my peace of mind, it's about
as special
as apricot's a special fruit, right ?
ben_vulpes: i'll take a look at where it is in the list of phucked ips later and make a call
as to whether its worthwhile to kill it and start over
mircea_popescu: just
as allowing python-3 out of experimental was the wrong move.
mircea_popescu: reviewing yest log for articlization i realise we'll probably not see pete_dushenski anymore ; he may or may not return in two week's time
as a dessicated airfoil to say his goodbyes to his former club, pre burial in an cremation urn.
mircea_popescu: (also why so many of the moribund modernist world take refuge in "coding"
as they understand it rather than much more obviously productive, satisfiying and accessible venues)
mircea_popescu: so no, the peasant didn't blame the boyar because the boyar did something. the peasant doesn't care about that (nor was the doing actually verifiable
as such, nor did it likely happen rather than the opposite). the peasant blame the boyar because the boyar was the wrong thing, a do-er rather than an is-er.
mircea_popescu: ah. the inflexible 29 yo had this very obnoxious penchant for trying to restate any problem in specific terms
as per his textbook.
mircea_popescu: old folks
as in bio age i usually have an easy enough time with ; young folks who aspire to be employed however are aged beyond their age, like touched by the fucking vorlons.
ben_vulpes: and the old folks who bear them, occasionally
as well.
a111: Logged on 2016-12-09 01:55 pete_dushenski would very much one day like to see what these bdsm clubs are all about, preferably with mircea_popescu
as guide, for he presently has nfi what he's missing out on.
mircea_popescu: am i nuts or something ? wtf "I think Fizz-Buzz is "hard" for some programmers because (#1) it doesn't fit into any of the patterns that were given to them in school assignments, and (#2) it isn't possible to directly and simply represent the necessary tests, without duplication, in just about any commonly-used modern programming language." (
as per

pete_dushenski would very much one day like to see what these bdsm clubs are all about, preferably with mircea_popescu
as guide, for he presently has nfi what he's missing out on.
☟︎ mircea_popescu: pete_dushenski all the warning signs are there. to wit : "(The hypothesis was advanced, more than once, that
as a foreigner who routinely travels abroad, speaks Spanish, and has money without any evidence of gainful employment, I was probably a drug dealer. I wish I were joking.)"
mircea_popescu: "When I met her mother for the first time, I brought my resume and tax returns. Her mother was not 100% keen on the match when we started dating,
as a combination of “foreigner” and “not gainfully employed” suggested that I was not exactly marriage material, but I eventually won her over."
mircea_popescu: except she is "intermediate" among the people actually making money ; not among the people aspiring to be used, which is still not the same
as making money. you could just
as well say tom cook is an intermediate manager (in the sense that bezos is clearly better and whoever they have at microsoft, that indian fellow, clearly worse), so you figure ten years after getting your degree from ohio state business school you'll be pu
mircea_popescu: this is like saying that your "sense of the market" indicates that
as an intermediate starlet in her 30s you'd probably command between 1 and 3 mn pa because hey, that's what bravo/seveteen/cosmo/whatever said christina applegate was making at some point in 2006 when she was 32 and was doing three different things.
mircea_popescu: "One’s actual salary
as a salaryman is generally rather low — about $100 per year of age per month,
as an engineer in Nagoya (set by a particular monopsonistic engineering employer near Nagoya). In Tokyo, my sense of the market is that,
as an intermediate engineer in his early thirties, I’d probably command somewhere between $30k and $60k. (In Silicon Valley, the going rate would be somewhere between $120k and $160k and
phf: "The company will mold you to their exacting specifications to do whatever form of service they require. You will happily comply, in this
as in all things. For example, if your company needs a Java-speaking systems engineer and you have a degree in Art History, this is not a problem because you can be fixed."
trinque:
As Iraqi forces advanced toward the al-Salam hospital in Mosul earlier this week, encountering only light resistance from Islamic State fighters, commanders decided to seize the facility instead of sweeping the neighborhoods along the road leading to it.
mircea_popescu:
as in, picked off the streets because anybody can anything and selected for certain attributes.
mircea_popescu: and no, i have no argument - it is EASIER to think of yourself
as "i am good at x" raqther than "brain works or doesn't work."
mircea_popescu: (arguably this is also in the past - not like i'm actually forbidding redditards to reddit, even
as i am squeezing the cream from the thing)
mircea_popescu: for
as long
as we still feel like entertaining ourselves by providing them with food and board, the derpage will last. and they'll "put women back into history at the call of bbc wikipedia.
mircea_popescu: yes, there isn't a beep-boop thing going around your livingroom. but it might
as well be - the warehouse is entirely robotized ; the production line mostly ; etcetera. even driving is going away.
mircea_popescu: ie - the visually driven notion of "robot"
as "anthropomorphised tuna can" is not particularly useful in a discussion of economics and robots.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform no, plumbing mostly comes
as part of the prefab components of construction nowadays. is not separate thing.
mircea_popescu: i suspect i might've talked to more industrial robots folks than you have over our respective careers, but be that
as it may, the trend is towards not away job destruction.
mircea_popescu: except there is no "work" in the abstract,
as a byproduct of anti-idlehandsaredevilswork. not anymore.
mircea_popescu: the belgian woman from before. "blind"
as in, no who just what. a modernist unicorn.
mircea_popescu: which is exactly why simple minded folks in third countries such
as argentina etc display the strange behaviour where they don't wish to actually work, first discussed in the article about whores
mircea_popescu: getting back to the modern/traditional thing : there's a very visible and practically relevant distinction in trade. when i hire a modernist, i hire him to do a job, and i expect him to do a job. but when i hire a traditionalist, i am essentially assigning office. and
as it is LOGICAL in that context, he may agree to any "job" specification ie burdens on the title before he gets it, while all he IS is humble applicant ; but o
mircea_popescu: hence the "useful evil minister" strategy deployed in england and france
as well
as everywhere else - get the guy to do things then behead him.
phf: i think i'm being misunderstood. i'm saying that fake-tzars were cases of "emperor asking of you", because both tzar and barin (i.e. immediate supervisor) were seen
as fundamental good. peasants consistently and historically allocated blame on various random hangerons. boyars, traders, foreigners, etc. in fact in fake-tzar cases the narrative was consistent "evil boyars have deposed our tzar-father and we won't stand for it"
mircea_popescu: socialist] state
as a persuasive and credible justification for the need to rebalance administratively imbalances induced administratively. same exact problems psychology resolves."
mircea_popescu: i suppose even something
as simple
as curl $item would work really huh.
diana_coman: mircea_popescu> diana_coman for some reason it decided i'm anonymous lol. <- fixed; weird though,
as I can't seem to be able to reproduce whatever the issue was
ser: but grandchildren are not being asked if they like it,
as they are usually unborn
mircea_popescu: i'd kinda like to see all these "engineers" (who,
as per some random douche working for microsoft, can not be found because most "relevancy engineers"
as if that's a thing already work at google) would run phuctor on.
mircea_popescu: all about making "other people's" lives better - well! Should anyone claim they failed they can just change the "other people", can't they! The socialist electorate, always and everywhere ein anderes. That enchanted, imaginary public which supports you (from a safe distance) in your quest
as you destroy the little you actually have."
mircea_popescu: verbatim from article : "And others type in what they think of
as normal queries for their day-to-day work even if they seem weird to you (e.g., a biologist might query for GTGACCTTGGGCAAGTTACTTAACCTCTCTGTGCCTCAGTTTCCTCATCTGTAAAATGGGGATAATA)." here's that search :
https://archive.is/oB6U3 mircea_popescu: holy shit, people can barely type out their name without reaching for a napkin to clear the drool, i'm going to index the 5 billionth prime number
as such.
mircea_popescu: to some degree "society" needs them to for its definition of them to be fulfilled ; to a larger degree the currently fashionable notions of self require them to
as well. but anyway - people will lvie everywhere, and historically have.
BingoBoingo: Not sure what that was exactly. Kinda looks like "shopping center" being shopped
as warehouse
mircea_popescu: anyone can make "a prediction" (what=equivalent) but it really matters WHO makes it,
as per the pro idiotas article.
mircea_popescu: the major problem of contemporaneous, post-modern, post-structuralist whatever world is that the practical equivalency class is the what, not the who. such
as for instance :
as long
as the product is a web app, you know what shit it will be and all you care about is WHO. which is why we have the entire who structure of code inheritance, much to the chagrin of the "oh noes, wasn't invented here syndrome" belated modernists.
mircea_popescu: married woman in brunei, a traditionalist society, expects to be fucked, in the way which fucking goes (ie, indifferent), by her husband but not by another man. and if her husband fucks with a stick, or with electrified vaginal pears, it's none of her business ; much like the belgian woman might fuck another woman, or a cat or a bit of plastic, just
as long
as it DOES the right thing - the brunei woman will fuck in whichever
mircea_popescu: and which is why traditionalist societies guilty pleasure is genealogy,
as in heraldics or vtronics ; whereas modernist societies guilty pleasure is "self improvement"
as in miracle diets and college degrees. (no, the two aren't different, the notion that you will BECOME at the college is entirely like the notion that you'll go to heaven through not cursing.)
phf: huh, it's unknowable, so either presented
as a joke, or
as complete hostile aliennes. sort of texas chainsaw massacre kind of stuff. russian equivalent would be narratives about "деревня"
mircea_popescu: it's ever only used
as a cheap mocking post, see. gotta frame the modern story in some sort of context,
phf: i'm not sure i get it. perhaps the idea is that the plot is constructed from conclusions backwards, rather than
as a chain of causes and effects resulting in an outcome, then conclusion. so the setup is restricted by what actions hero must perform or what other kind of allegory
mircea_popescu: my idea is that it being an ontology (
as distinct from and very much opposed to a technology) such is entirely out of the question.
mircea_popescu: phf asciilifeform
as per your understanding of folk logic, could Кощей have kept the needle anywhere ?
mircea_popescu: i have no interest in the misguided speculations of reddit
as such, they're not a demographic
as much
as a random number machine.
