mircea_popescu: so : if you're EVER GOING TO BE an adult, the idiocy outside doesn'
t matter. and if the idiocy outside matters, you weren'
t ever going to be an adult anyway. entirely disjunct sets
mircea_popescu: and i'm not about to stand for any "it doesn'
t counts because".
trinque: it didn'
t take me longer than 5min to copy the openbsd emacs makefile and remove everything I didn'
t want
mircea_popescu: so the point is essentially moot. yes, if anyone gave a shit "they'd form their whole worldview through watching cnn". the problem is that the people watching cnn aren'
t goingto ever form a worldview anyway, and the people who will ever have formed a worldview don'
t watch it.
mircea_popescu: point is - either you're an adult or you aren'
t. if you're an adult you don'
t find out where your asshole goes from googling assholes. if you're not an adult there is no hope for you anyway, no matter what.
mircea_popescu: "for as long as you weren'
t born yesterday, not being born yesterday worx".
whaack: i asked for one a long time ago but i never got the game working and didn'
t save the dpaste message unfortunately
a111: Logged on 2017-01-14 01:28 mircea_popescu: aqnyway, the "hive mind" is fucking comedic already. FIVE YEARS with the subverted python, got them nowhere. close to five years pushing rust, nothing to show for it. systemd is still mostly a joke, and the hatred is growing exponentially while the pustule is growing logarithmic at that. meanwhile the republic cracked open the heartbleed in quite the painful fashion, no matter how much effort went into "rehappening" it. not
t mircea_popescu: all the bad hbo productions cranking up to 11 a theoretical future in which everything is "mobile" and "intelligent" by default ain'
t gonna make the fad not be a fad.

t ☟︎ mod6: i don'
t know how the mechanical hash matching would work otherwise.
mircea_popescu: well yes but this isn'
t necessarily a criterion is it ?
mod6: and removal of one doesn'
t, in my current implementation, ensure it's removal, as there are three other antecedents for this.
mircea_popescu: and if that's not pressed (as you removed its seal), then this shouldn'
t either.
mod6: His graph doesn'
t show all of the edges, and as this correctly highlights, I believe to be less than perfect.
☟︎ mod6: You see, when I've tested this in a single edge graph system -- a simple test vpatch set, this problem doesn'
t occur. a->b->c->d->e, remove 'c', and you just have a->b -- my current implemntation does this fine.
mircea_popescu: such bizarro notions. really, because dork can'
t think it then follows that mp can'
t be right and nature will go out of its way to accomodate ?
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform random nonsense aside, i also don'
t believe fusion is +ev in a practical sense. obviously if you can be arsed to gather together enough hydrogen you get your own star for free. but that's about it.
mircea_popescu: at issue isn'
t whether they're systematic or systemic ; but whether they're projective.
mircea_popescu: we might mean different things by organised. i don'
t mean what is meant by "systematizing" in eg "systematizing delusion"
mircea_popescu: i don'
t care about stupidity per se ; organised stupidity of any kind however is a different matter.
mircea_popescu: anyway, it's impossible to hide the albright from any of this. but then again they don'
t specifically aim to hide it from us, secure in the knowledge that the orcs it's addresses to entirely lack the receptors in the first place. which is true.
mircea_popescu: re the soros book : it's not terrible, there's a certain political bent to it but i expect you're immune. like how human doesn'
t catch most rat viral strains.
mircea_popescu: "why didn;
t they do it sooner!" "cuz they didn'
t feel like it!" "but why did they do it at all!" "cuz they felt like it!"
mircea_popescu: as good a statement as any re why moore law can'
t ever produce ai.
mircea_popescu: this is also how banking works, "you can have all the money you don'
t need you could wish -- but don'
t ask for money when you need it!"
mircea_popescu: it's not clear to me that any engineering issues are in fact involved. all i see are purely psychogenic issues improperly welded to the foregoing. you don'
t need nor can have any meaningful implementation of "public servicves", not ever. getting oneself to believe the contrary is a strange exercise in contorsionism
phf: asciilifeform: there are two incompatible eating methods, "eat" function and the ^( mode. i added the latter for my own convenience, because number of times i want to type a sexp is way higher than a literate string that opens with paren. obviously doesn'
t scale to a channel full of people, who have much less need for a repl bot
mircea_popescu: ben_vulpes the idea is for this to be a toy-level learn-lisp item ; can'
t add a "AND IF YOU DO ARCANE THING YOU DIE" coda.
ben_vulpes: can'
t the lords be trusted to shut her up when they're done playing?
mircea_popescu: ben_vulpes i don'
t want her to do anything specifically, but she also can'
t answer to a single-open-parens control sequence
BingoBoingo: And why weren'
t you using nitrile gloves?!
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform comments don'
t allow < semantically because it's the start of a html tag ; articles have problems parsing (( and )) because it's footnote convention
mircea_popescu: speaking of which : ben_vulpes would you join candi here and set everyone in l1 to its eat list ? i deem you've satisfied contractual obligations re support ; if you'll be kind enough to bring it back within a day or two should it get knocked off that's entirely fine by my lights. and everyone else : have fun with the lisp repl, but don'
t abuse.
mircea_popescu: naggum evidently intends restrictions as to shape AND USAGE. this you don'
t see because you opt to, but in his world, as constructed from his words, it is legitimate for someone to come and tell you "this isn'
t a proper use of the public service", and it is illegitimate for you to retort "tough"
mircea_popescu: and otherwise, anyone recall the link to the big array/list discussion cuz i can'
t fucking find it
mircea_popescu: so i tried to watch naked (2013). the most i can say is that the atrocity is a fine explanation of why there isn'
t such a thing as english philosophy.
pete_dushenski: asciilifeform: wasn'
t the question. care to answer it ?
ben_vulpes: but wtf who isn'
t 2 jumps away from a dentist
mircea_popescu: i dunno, some bit about how the chinese emperors din'
t have covers on their beds, slept covered in women
ben_vulpes: Framedragger: are you sure you shouldn'
t be using olegdb?
mircea_popescu: phf to quote from a film i don'
t recall, "niente coveri, solo corpi di tinere donne"
mircea_popescu: fwiw i wasn'
t terribly impressed with that particular statement.
mircea_popescu: and yes i plant my own lovage, in buenos aires, because the plant doesn'
t exist and "soup condiment mix" doesn'
t satisfy.
mircea_popescu: don'
t tell me all this nonsense now makes sense to you ?
mircea_popescu: the computer doesn'
t in the slightest mind running in a for loop from now until the heat-end of history. however, it would humbly request you actually write its death sentence deliberately rather than by uncomprehended accidenty.
davout: asciilifeform: the reason some of the string primitives aren'
t included, e.g. "substring" is that they're O(n)? In other words, that the convenience comes at the cost of incentivizing operator idiocy?
davout: mircea_popescu: i'm afraid i don'
t see that particular ambiguity
mircea_popescu: not so. i can go from everything i do in an infinite string of correct whys to prime logic. broken shit can'
t do that.
mircea_popescu: well, a large part of the problem is that strings aren'
t something.
davout: mircea_popescu: i didn'
t "pour a bottle on your head", i accidentally'd a wine ~glass~, at least that's what i remember!
mod6: <+ben_vulpes> waiwut i don'
t remember this wine event << great steaks at this place. Mr. P. had to leave and change his suit.
ben_vulpes: waiwut i don'
t remember this wine event
mircea_popescu: i don'
t mean the punters, i mean the site administration.
mircea_popescu: you don'
t buy it on credit in the first place, i guess.
phf: yeah, i'm just building a typing laptop. probably going to take it to india with me instead of main machine. can'
t really afford getting it stolen, and don'
t want to bother with proper compartmentalization
