mircea_popescu: look here : risk,
as a statistical concern, and phenomenology,
as a discrete history of the world, are entirely separate domains.
mircea_popescu: moreover, the fact that folk are "stuck" operating on windows/other tiling wm "all the time" is really no excuse to smash your stack,
as in
mircea_popescu: your calling induction "demonstration" and you pretending a nude call
as to the future counts
as either doth not actually change how reason works, you know.
mircea_popescu: the practical difference it makes is that if you stuprum definitions the results are - by definition - undefined. just like when you smash buffers, what you get is a no-longer-working machine. irrespective of what "practical" difference it makes understood
as "i still see tiled windows so all is well"
mircea_popescu: exact fucking definition of derealisation,
as in the psychosis symptom. "can't distinguish between things present and things in own head."
mircea_popescu: this qualifies
as insanity. wtf do you mean the realia-idealia is "distinction without a difference" ?
mircea_popescu: there is no such thing
as "the preferences" of the virgin. virgins have no preferences.
mircea_popescu: kid is a wonder to behold, he effortlessly succeeds at things virtually none of his compatriots ever do, such
as killing people (note how many of the "i shot a buncha losers" types are actually first generation or further
as opposed to malibu-beachouse-timesharing-lizzardkin) or keeping his nose clean (seriously, find someone in californa born 80s or prior who is not and will not smoke), and then is all bitter and butthurt o

☟︎ mircea_popescu: but yes, they do try to eat
as much
as they can of anything.
mircea_popescu: look : the entire profession of estate lawyer is this : "you want to transfer X sugar from A to B ; with ants eating
as little
as possible on the way. This is how you time-attack the ants :"
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform technically it's quite sensible
as it's deferred inheritance.
pete_dushenski: BingoBoingo: that strat works about
as well
as lonely white kids watching blacked.com in triggering crackers to get more hung.
BingoBoingo: If there were complaints though I'd expect them to actually have increased over the past two weeks
as I've taken to walking around with athletic black girl to trigger fat white bitches into hopefully eating less.

as how it's not my place and it's a very risky thing, letting someone move in. That aside, the timeframe is perfect. I will be away for more than a few months even
☝︎ BingoBoingo: "The court ruled that because the law that defines stealing doesn’t include the value of property stolen
as an element of the offense, prosecutors couldn’t charge the woman in the case with felony stealing."
phf: basically it's a choice between beta level code that is likely to do something stupid, but not
as likely to completely die and stable code that doesn't know how to reconnect dying on wednesday while i'm away
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform think of it
as sewage filter. dunno if you've seen ossessione, but anyway : the street blows by all sorts, maybe some junk you'd like to hold on for a while.
thestringpuller: asciilifeform: but not so much ho bsns,
as slave bsns. motel == office. with unpaid interns. think 1980's startup.

as a banal example that what i want to do is discern whether key X is yours or his. well, a simple solution would be to add a third i know is not involved, send the same thing to all three, and see which of the susperct two behaves like the third.
mircea_popescu: not that i'm against it. but it does not get classified
as solution

☝︎☟︎☟︎ mircea_popescu: everyting "can be construed
as trust" if one has this scalar notion of trust. "here is what body doing X thing reported its IP to be at the time it was doing the X thing" is a very different statement from "i expect to find my house at the corner of cunt street with shit creek"
a111: Logged on 2016-08-26 12:49 Framedragger: that can be construed
as trust, but yeah ok.
mircea_popescu: Their successors include Matt Blaze, a widely known cryptographer and associate professor at the University of Pennsylvania; Cindy Cohn, Ms. Steele’s successor
as executive director at the Electronic Frontier Foundation; Bruce Schneier, a security author and expert; Gabriella Coleman, an anthropologist at McGill University who writes about online activism; Linus Nordberg, a longtime internet and privacy activist; and Megan
☟︎ mircea_popescu: for the record, "The departing directors are Meredith Hoban Dunn, Ian Goldberg, Julius Mittenzwei, Rabbi Rob Thomas, Wendy Seltzer and two of Tor’s co-founders, Roger Dingledine and Nick Mathewson. Mr. Dingledine and Mr. Mathewson will remain
as leaders of Tor’s technical research and development.
mircea_popescu: ie, you trying to work on it resulted in you being mildly annoyed by what you perceived
as out of place comms, which upon actual investigation turned out to be different from what originally seemed to be, and in the process of examining difference important feature of shoreline became illuminated and so on.
mircea_popescu: phf no i know. my whole point was that it works
as intended.
mircea_popescu: (ironically, this arrangement has more historical exposure than everything that passes for "modern democracy". it's both how the ottoman empire worked ;
as well
as how the jews did middle east for five centuries.)
phf:
as a gothic stance, "if society rejects me, i will now serve the utmost evil!"
mircea_popescu: the subjective experience of loss and inadequacy is a huge underground ocean comprising most of the human bejaviour known
as art.
phf:
as a final product -- not, but
as a teaching tool?
a111: Logged on 2016-08-26 12:50 phf: it can be construed
as trust if you don't anything beyond what i said, so i also said that there's no trust. of course that's only my interpretation and asciilifeform can provide his own
Framedragger: ..iirc one of the original ideas was to "pass around ip addresses"
as things bound to some nick/identity; there is a trust component here; but i'm sure it's evolved since then, etc etc.

http://btcbase.org/log/2016-08-26#1529496 << just curious - does the gossip spec
as it is place any trust in ip addresses? this iirc was one of the points criticized by asciilifeform, i would think it to be a valid one. sorry if this, too, was extensively discussed in the logs.

BingoBoingo: <asciilifeform> if mircea_popescu had written that rodgier ought to have ~been buggered~, or enslaved by arabs, or similar, i would have no dispute. but it is just
as fantastic to posit schmuck going into pederasty willingly,
as to picture him growing taller by effort of will << He probably would enthusiastically have embraced getting buggered if he was a level 70 chocolate elfhole while recieving buggery
phf: asciilifeform: right, but if he recognized them
as his betters, he could learn from them is my point, by talking to them, by "serving" them, etc.
mircea_popescu: motherfucker "corrected himself" in the sense of admitting his original idiocy has no possible subject ; and then gleefully proceeds to act
as if he said something.
trinque: and in that case they hold only
as much credence
as your trust of peered nodes
adlai: mod6: reminds me of some article that tl;dred to "i should have procrastinated my phd for
as long
as possible, finishing it was a mistake"
mircea_popescu: "bitch... i'm not gonna pay more for her
as she's older and dumber"
mircea_popescu: it is possible to eat shit,
as an individual. it is not possible to enact a shiteating diet.

mircea_popescu: trinque petrified
as you represent it and
as it actually works are pretty disjunct. ask a proper rape victim - she'll recall EVERYTHING in great detail except what she did. because she did nothing. because petrified.
phf: BingoBoingo: i have no idea what their endgame was, i think that they had some old fashioned notion of bad student, that they were committed to living out for
as long their livers last. to be fair a "brilliant", but "misunderstood" alcoholic student is a european stereotype (it used to be mocked, but then there's a handful of books, where their genius is recognized type deal). i think u.s. philosophy majors carry alcoholism

as philosophy. if i were teaching them cooking i'd be interested in their own fucking contribution and whatever. but the point of philosophy is to shut the fuck up and LEARN. what "the text makes you think" and what "you feel about X" is entirely uninteresting, bec
mircea_popescu: the current us fashion of asking kids for "their opinion" is
as good a proof
as needed that there exist no qualified philosophy teachers in that country, for instance.

http://btcbase.org/log/2016-08-25#1529080 true; at the same time and funnily enough in this particular case, the parents of this guy actually called the police on him and apparently tried to get him out of the way -within the confines of what was acceptable- but essentially everybody else disagreed with the parents' own view that he wasn't fit to live among others
as he was at the time.
☝︎ BingoBoingo: "My parents shocked me with very horrible news. They were planning on sending me to Taft High School. Taft had five times
as many students
as Crespi, it was a public school, it had girls in it, and it had a bad reputation. I had never been so scared in my entire life. How could they do this to me, after knowing what I went through at Crespi? Taft High School would eat me alive and spit me out. I felt so betrayed by my parents." << AHA, I
mircea_popescu: experience shows it is exceedingly difficult to build 4X games that don't die thus (more recent players will know this
as "zerging")
phf: stealth computer games are best suited for ai problems, because the algorithms fall under a very specific category of differential blind search games with mobile hider studied and analyzed since the 60s
as part of differential games subfield of game theory (DoD likes to throw money at stuff like that, and the first treatment of subject is by a RAND corporation guy). there's no known optimal strategy for >2 node networks, but there are
mircea_popescu: i'm not even sure the case of breach was yet born when the problem truly was "nobody could have predicted". virtually all go "o hey, if we
as much

mircea_popescu:
as evidenced by the fact that once you stop to consider it, a minute's all it takes.
