mircea_popescu: ima bbl ; shinohai if moar noobs show up do pacify
them for a few hours.
ben_vulpes is not looking forward
to
the glorious blood sports of curating otpwads
ben_vulpes: what btw was
the name of
that cheapo usb sampler you linked forever ago?
ben_vulpes: and if you missed
the opportunity
to batch it up in ars, it's probably worth
the expense
to do
the rounds and collect 'em in person

true, having whole gang
together is rather appealing
tho
mircea_popescu: and
this from someone who doesn't fwis even much care for rats.
mircea_popescu: "oh your world won't work, demiurge" "no problem, i'll add ai
to it" "idiot"
mircea_popescu: which is a loud
testament of
their idiocy - much harder
to do BOTH world AND AI at
the same
time.
mircea_popescu: every other game company - makes design ;
tests game. s.mg stuck making design,
then
trying
to figure out what design is actually
trying
to do, so it can be
tested p[roperly.
mircea_popescu: anyway,
this wasn't deliberate part of
the design. it's just
that it apparently flows from
the prime principles
that design rests on and implements.
mircea_popescu: because some people (me, daniel, diana, etc) are such perfectionists, we kinda debalanced
the economy
to where it atm has high need of you know, plain old noobs.
mircea_popescu: note
that it's a very performant simulation. just like irl - "shit" is not "objectively" low value. you could, conceivably (60% shrimp world by mass) arrive in a situation where shit is in high demand ; meat not so much.
mircea_popescu: no ; it's a volume-vs-quality issue. sometimes i just need a lot of cruddy flotsam for a job ; it's wasteful
to use hand carved 1700 bedposts for it, so
to speak.
mircea_popescu: see asciilifeform if i dig up a flotsam claim, i get flotsam quality 250ish. when
they do it, quality 9.
mircea_popescu: abrr i was
talking
to shinohai ; what you have
to do is register your gpg key with deedbot and get
the game client running. you got either of
these ?
shinohai: we
talk on phone every day now lol.
shinohai: mircea_popescu well i hope you're having fun. <<< least I could do in exchange for
the #trilema girl
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform no ; question specifically was not "where is
their loop execution
time listed"
a111: Logged on 2014-08-27 01:00 asciilifeform: 'pardon my cynical
twist, but what are you doing with
that 20,000×20,000 double-precision floating point matrix you say you need
to invert _today_? If you answer "nutt'n, I jus kinda wondered what it'd be like, you know", you should be very happy
that I am most likely more
than 3000 miles away from you, or I would come over and slap you hard.'
abrr: hi i am here for 0.01 BTC bitcoin
talk
mircea_popescu: "these women seem like
they may be what i want
to fuck. any way
to know which i'd enjoy without actually fucking anything ?"
mircea_popescu: "<audrow> pipping: I see. Femlisp seems good. I
think femlisp, LLA, and GSLL meet my requirements. Do you have any idea how
to compare
the performance of various libraries, short of
trying
them all?" << ok, i must say i am deeply impressed with
those snr enforcement measures :D
shinohai: Yeah
tardstalk is a strange place, at least 5 PM's already calling
this a scam before
the
Turkish guy showed up, so now blockchain proofs.
phf: #lisp? it has pockets of activity, but
there's a decent level of signal inforcement
mircea_popescu: i suppose
the unwritten codex of
the place is "nothing exists before
the
third bump"
shinohai: Nah it's in
the same place, just finally got some attention, I went back and bumped it a few
times.
trinque: I have started lurking in #clim
to see how gabriel_laddel's climwars are going.
shinohai: mircea_popescu:
the eulora post?
phf: python is 1946,
though it stopped being at all useful past 2005 or so
phf: 450 according
to /list #lisp
phf: it worked better when i had
the patience
to exist on large channels (#lisp for example), but now i'm checking erc-lurker-state it's
the exhaustive list of all
the people i even have on all of
the channels
mircea_popescu: shinohai was it
that originally not posted in right place ?
phf: it doesn't hide, it redirects it elsewhere.
to places where i rarely ever read it..
phf: something
to consider :>
phf: asciilifeform: i have
this in my erc
http://paste.lisp.org/display/324144 erc-lurker-state is internal hash
that erc maintains on its own of people who have
talked in
the last 24h by default, people not in
that list are considered lurkers. you can use erc-lurker-hide-list
to hide certain messages from lurkers in my case JOIN/PART/QUIT,
the extra erc-display-message advice is
to send
those message
to server buffer instead of
totally
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform
there's reasons we don't condone des.
this'd be one of
them.
trinque: o hey look ma, made my own windows registry, but only for
this one proggie
mircea_popescu: ie, elliot rodger a lot more common
than previously
thought.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform but notice
the astounding design similarity with "bitcoin wallet"
mircea_popescu: hey, some ideas are hard enough
to possess even if explained
to you, rather
than having
to find on own.
phf: as my unix
teacher used
to say "i had
this idea, i read it in ..."
phf: i had some mild success with a script around gpg where on each run it would create a db in
tmp/, import all keys from ~/wot ~/systemkeys ~/randomkeys etc.,
then run
the op against
that
tmp db, and finally remove
the db
phf: if you were
to
take all
the marketing materials at face value, gpg1 is for backend work, gpg2 is client facing, for user emails and such.
phf: which actually makes no sense, since gnupg 1.4 is designed explecitly for use in
the kind of situations debian is using it. i.e. low level infrastructural verification
mircea_popescu: but yes,
the lines are certainly solidifying under republican pressure.
