transportation modes further.
shinohai: Speaking of South American countries, should I suspect Columbia
to be a horrid shithole?
mircea_popescu: who
the fuck
told
these idiots
that
their soul is worth anything or presents some sort of interest
to anyone.
shinohai: Thanks Stephan for
taking
the
time
to use your new crayons

a111: Logged on 2014-02-02 03:29 herbijudlestoids: has anyone come up with any useful use cases for urbit? all i could
think of was a mutt clone lol
ben_vulpes: hrm. can't find
the canonical ox and flies link
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform hey, got a link
to
the original discussion re merits of urbit right before you sold your whatever it was, battlestarisland
BingoBoingo: <mircea_popescu> BingoBoingo send
the man a congratulatory email ? since it
turns out you linked him first. << Gotta catch up on log
to figure out who I am congratulating on what.
mircea_popescu: if soviet us were any good,
they'd just replace it with a normal china
teapot
jurov: but you'll be vindicated
they have blown
the exact shape specially for you
jurov: it will be non destructive. unless usg exchanges
the
teapot for non-borosilicate in
transit, in what case you don't need it after all
mircea_popescu: (seriously guise - buy bohemian crystal flutes ;
then have fun with
the girl making literal music
together.)
mircea_popescu: i guess i lived in
the swarovski prince of bell air's mansion.
mircea_popescu: one of
the hugest scams of all
time, my parents' house hosted numerous clear and colored bohemian glass pots, most a few lbs in weight
jurov: yes it never broke due
to heat/cold
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform his argument is
that it fits
the spec for performance. which it does.
mircea_popescu: jurov believe it or not

that.
jurov: asciilifeform you forgot i have several actual borosilicate
teapots, bohemian glass

to conform
to ISO for borosilicate glass. and
they sell
to da US. it's in
the logs
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.'
mircea_popescu: by "cattle not pets", for
the record ;
there's a difference between
the people who actually understand
the problems involved and
the inept clowd of usian aspie 14%ers who wish
to pretend like
they have big
town problems, who knows, maybe someone gives
them a big
town salary.
mircea_popescu: So reactions
to Docker are not necessarily based on
the
technology itself. Most haters are not really reacting
to Docker’s solutions
to important and complex problems. Mostly,
this is because
those problems are ones you might not have noticed if you haven’t spent
time scaling big systems. If you don’t intuitively and deeply understand what’s meant by “cattle not pets” << it is directly obvious
to me what is meant
mircea_popescu: html5 had a fighting chance as "not just
text" ; it lost.
this shit is dumber still, with a larger ground
to cover still, with less
talent and intellectual capacity involved ; and with
the corporate nonsense
that formed
the original impetuus, from apple "app store"
to cisco via intel/amd fritzchips etc dying left and right.
the bottom's already fell out of apple store,
there's no revenue made, and all
these idiots can go back
mircea_popescu: there's no space in any conceivable future for "that whole docker and cointainer
thing" ; nor actually for "apps".
mircea_popescu: to be perfectly clear, none of
that stupid shit is "the future", nor even much of
the present.
mircea_popescu: way
the fuck better
than "polite" derp jamming hbo or whatever
the fuck.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform guy's very representative ; got nothing
to stand for and nothing
to stand with.
