gabriel_laddel: but must be willing
to put up with having your stuff
taken from
time
to
time / "the knockout game"
mircea_popescu: in other nuts, someone should
totally write a universal program improver, which
takes any legal code, unrolls all for loops and reimplements
them as if clauses ; and unrolls all if clauses and reimplements
them as for loops.
mircea_popescu: will need
to
talk
to phf for css
though, i never went
to
that class.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform i could
teach you php and you could make rent money on fiverr in no
time.
mircea_popescu: they could have like an itinerant seminar of luby
transforms, functional analysis and convexity.
mircea_popescu: and next year mod6 could come
to alf's garden/basement.
mircea_popescu: in fairness, i sometimes do
this, except never send pet
to live with HER mother. i send her
to live with
the more sane female cousins of mine, learn
the ropes of female sanity.
gabriel_laddel is currently shopping around for a USB drive
that will hold all
the masamune sources, as
the current one is
too small
☟︎ mircea_popescu hadn't even seen
the "and pet has
to live with mother" part. EPIC.
gabriel_laddel: because wtf, it isn't
that difficult and somehow I manage
to be fed + sleep indoors shave and whatnont?
mircea_popescu: don't mind me,
this convo reminded me of spirited not-yet-lawyeress many years ago. she, similarly, "i don't want your charity!" "fine,
take your clothes off
then and you'll have earned it."
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform how are you going
to make a boyfriend with
that sort of attitude ?!
mircea_popescu: shinohai virgins usually do poorly
the first
time in
the dungeon. naive cunt petrifies readily.
shinohai: After 35 years I'd wager it was as mushy as a virgin's vagina after a night in
the mircea_popescu dungeon.
gabriel_laddel: Look, I don't have your personal ledger in front of me, but wouldn't paying ZERO in rent save you a lot, even if you only do it for a year and your pet has
to go live with her mother?
mircea_popescu pictures 35yo woman waiting patiently for
that damned pasta for
the past ~20 years
mircea_popescu: hey, wadda ya want! alf is ~still~ making his original gf from back when he was 15 a pasta dinner. he just had
to go
to college first, find another woman, and other details.
a111: Logged on 2014-11-08 01:50 mircea_popescu: dawg, just make
those cardanos so we can sell em and
that's it, let some other unfortunate soul extract himself with bountee.
thestringpuller: asciilifeform: you can live in
the guest house. it's like a shed but with windows, and a kitchen, and a bathroom.
a111: Logged on 2016-06-17 20:36 Framedragger: asciilifeform: yeah so i'll prolly end up dumping 10M ssh keys on phuctor's ass, via its web interface. i wonder if phuctor can handle parallel requests,
to a point :P i won't be an asshole about it.
mircea_popescu: honestly i can't complain. as
the saying goes on shittycustomers.com, "it's easy if you know what you're doing".
gabriel_laddel: $s People generally wish
to be rich for all sorts of reasons and mental constructions
that scarcely survive
the
transformative process which becoming rich entails
gabriel_laddel: asciilifeform: if I buy you a shed like
the one in
timasora, and mod6 installs it on his property, will you please just go live
there and save money?
mircea_popescu: why not you knwo, "an unspecified specification has eggoged. please retry
to abort."
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform holy shit what is wrong with
this crap. who. WHO!!!! can
think ls may say
that.
a111: Logged on 2016-06-28 03:38 mod6: <+asciilifeform> mircea_popescu: i lived in a ~hole for 20 yrs. << you can come live in my basement if you're
tired of paying rent. i've even got a garden. :]
a111: Logged on 2016-07-04 10:24 mircea_popescu:
http://btcbase.org/log/2016-07-04#1496683 << i'm not even sure
that's
true, ftr. php is actually a fine language FOR ITS INTENDED PURPOSE. hypertext preprocessor ffs! it's not even a language, as such! just a preprocessor, like an early scripting language.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform wasn't
the Framedragger_ lot ~20mn keys ?
mircea_popescu: in fairness, once bailing begins,
the details are forever being worked until everyone is dead.
mircea_popescu: but yes,
the whole
thing's dead, we're debating which dead cell's at fault in
the dead
tissue.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform
this is not legitimately
their concern in capitalismus.
mircea_popescu: (business closes as acceptance of
tender - so between a
tenderer and an acceptor)
mircea_popescu: hey, business is business.
the fool's never on
the
tender side of any bargain.
mircea_popescu: reason scamcoins / forum scams always go
the same way is, basically,
this woman. stupid people are all stupid
the same.
mircea_popescu: the woman is
trying
to convert bondholders on a lossy entreprise into shareholders, because of course she would.
mircea_popescu: anyway,
to bridge
this
to finance :
this is
the fundamental difference between shares and bonds. a bond is owed on irrespective of how
the business does ; shares only fraction of what
the business did.
mircea_popescu: that part, of course, needn't be mentioned, because "who cares more about sanity
than '''people
themselves''' is
the bad
thing mkay!"
mircea_popescu: she was more
than likely offered life insurance for
the kid, declined it
to save 25 bux a month or w/e
mircea_popescu: anyway, sane people, which is
to say business people,
take insurance in such a deal. whether
the principal is a dumb kid or a warehouse, you insure against it's destruction specifically so you don'tend up in
this "guarantor pays
through no fault".
mircea_popescu: "let's break
things for stupid people". recurring
theme of "modern democracy" altogether ; so much so it's obviously at
the core of
the stupidity involved.
mircea_popescu: but as far as any possibility of working anything is concerned,
there's nothing remarkable here. "i made my bed on highway, got run over".
mircea_popescu: that's what a guarantoor does : "give x
this much, and if he won't pay, i will". it's an ancient institution,
the piece of shakespeare i butchered revolves around it.
mircea_popescu: default for
the purposes of cosigning means
the cosigner pays.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform not remarkable, woman cosigned on a loan.
this is
the point of cosignature.
mircea_popescu: incidentally, re
teh state of
the bitcoin - lettuce not allow all
the countless
things we're doing distract. even if
the summer of forks was defeated politically, so we blessfully didn't have
to fight
the battle on
the
technological field, mod6 still needs all
the help he can get.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform brontosaurus gotta graze. can has hay ? no ? can has grass ? no ?
then can has hay ? no ?
then can has grass ? no ? how about lettuce ? fern ? hay ? grass ? lettuce ?
mircea_popescu: nicely mirroring
the situation a year+ ago, when i couldn't find any owners
to borrow from for
the life of me.
