mircea_popescu: anyway. so there's two relevant episodes of seinfeld. in one, the resident imbeciles (the fat lazy one, postman, and the hipster doofus) engage in a VERY IMPORTANT game of nothing in particular. in the other, elaine's tasked to review a book about this cockeyed optimist.
mircea_popescu: now THAT is always & guaranteed "certain degree of believe not what your eyes show you but what the book tells you"
phf: well, the book was published in 99!
mircea_popescu: if you strike the parens he still says "when book"
phf: mircea_popescu: it's also possible that he's referring to the original publication of esr's essay, that predated the book by couple of years
asciilifeform: That is the sorry reality of the bazaar Raymond praised in his book: a pile of old festering hacks, endlessly copied and pasted by a clueless generation of IT "professionals" who wouldn't recognize sound IT architecture if you hit them over the head with it.'
mircea_popescu: good soviet types in the book he wants to read.

asciilifeform: i dun consider it sin to run away from grade school. but consider opening a book
mircea_popescu: yet there she sits, and like her one billion utterly useless facebook tards. i've no doubt she votes, but not randomly -- she thinks she reasons! and in another decade she's gonna write a "book". and so fucking following.
diana_coman: asciilifeform, I suspect it's quite possible that the writer would end up with that q so... no book
asciilifeform: ( and , jaw-droppingly, just about every book 'on crypto' omits the otp proof. that very same, that constitutes the alpha and the omega of what's actually proven in the subject at all )
spyked: http://btcbase.org/log/2017-11-14#1738140 <-- ftr, I am following phf's initial advice re. reading lisp in small pieces; this, along with kogge's book. but at snail's pace (code easier to write than read) ☝︎☟︎
mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2017-11-19#1740595 << this, very muchly. most of the problem of "but mp, i have no way to search BY DEFINITION!!1" is compensated by escaping from the idiocy of book. yes there is way to search by definition, that's what log search is even used for 90% of the time! ☝︎
asciilifeform: see also the pertinent ARM , 4.3.3 'array aggregates', https://www2.adacore.com/gap-static/GNAT_Book/html/aarm/AA-4-3-3.html#I2421 .

mircea_popescu: yes, you can expect that your modulus will lead 10 more often than 11. but this is in the book already.
a111: Logged on 2017-11-12 19:59 trinque: asciilifeform: take a picture of the book spines before selling, for teh uneducated youf
mircea_popescu: but then again, humanities book needs > technical.

mircea_popescu: (entirely possible the ro commies read the book and never heard of nansen, but anyway)
mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2017-11-03#1732711 << of course. back in the z80 days the whole memory could be printed out, wouldn't even take a whole book. more like what today passes for one, ie 40-50 pages' worth. ☝︎
a111: Logged on 2017-11-01 18:34 asciilifeform: 'how Bitfinex themselves ran arbitrage with other exchanges, and displayed orders from other exchanges as their own, as if it was their own order book' etc.

mircea_popescu: by the book "we are poor and hopeless but communism rules!!!!" argentinianism.
asciilifeform: in other surprises, kidz book shop had volkov ( su d00d who made cult classic 'fanfic' of 'wizard of oz' series ) in ro trans
asciilifeform: sooooo recently asciilifeform bought a 1990s-style electrodictionary for a language . and like any 1990s gadget, it also 'is a phone book, and organizer' and other misc rubbish , and this rubbish functionality required a DIFFERENT calibre of watch battery from the 2 main 3v cells. and would whine that 'memory batt low' etc, while draining main cells in MINUTES after insertion:
mod6: There's a bunch of in-depth information in this book, I highly suggest if examining these results.
mod6: yah, i'll go grab the book, standby.
mod6: ben_vulpes: seems fine. iirc, and i don't have the book in hand at the moment, but knuth outside certain boundaries is suspect.
mircea_popescu: this one actually got killed by 98% alcohol flood. book couldn't crush it.
spyked is going through Kogge's book at the moment, incidentally. much lower level, but it should help on Lisp internals.
phf: nope, it was started by john tye, https://arstechnica.com/tech-policy/2014/08/meet-john-tye-the-kinder-gentler-and-by-the-book-whistleblower/. i suppose he should be classified as a chair shuffler
asciilifeform was about to upload crc book'o'crypto and then remembered that dulap is gone...
BingoBoingo: Well, if you send $$$ they send you book with more grainy pics
a111: Logged on 2014-08-28 02:09 asciilifeform: the book is quite like the 'rule of law is a myth' piece (http://faculty.msb.edu/hasnasj/GTWebSite/MythWeb.htm - linked here a few times) except that katz hasn't let go of his religion yet

asciilifeform: woah guiness book
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: Hillary published a book. The timing of the book's release coincides with Pelosi and Schumer moistening Herr Trump's balls.
deedbot: http://qntra.net/2017/09/pantsuits-party-reacts-to-pantsuits-book-by-capitulating-to-president-trump/ << Qntra - Pantsuit's Party Reacts To Pantsuit's Book By Capitulating To President Trump
pete_dushenski: http://archive.is/1mz8v << ""The Clinton Foundation is willing to KILL to protect its secrets. So on HRC’s book tour, try to grab a hair from her. I must confirm the sequences I have. Will pay $5,000 per hair obtained from Hillary Clinton," the Facebook post stated. Although Shkreli's lawyer, Benjamin Brafman, argued the post fell under the right to free speech, Judge Matsumoto disagreed. "This is a
BingoBoingo: So now there's all the problematizing about how halfway through the book all the kids fucked to cement a pact or something
mircea_popescu: just roll up the god damned book, lube up and shove it.
mircea_popescu: there are many proprietary shits, but they "publish" summaries in the vein of us scientism, "summaries" and coloring book pdfs.
mircea_popescu: i think latin-gone-wild may be more on the point. sort-of like that good jewess / future balabusta of http://trilema.com/2016/black-book/ trying to get as much nazi/anything cock as possible.
mircea_popescu: a language where ALL parts are orthogonal is entirely the phone book, unable to mean anything. i thought the contention was language where SOME parts are orthogonal.
mircea_popescu: and in other random lulz, http://worldofwonder.net/alt-right-childrens-book-the-adventures-of-pepe-and-pede-cancelled/
mircea_popescu: ol' mr. o was a by-the-book jealous faggot.
danielpbarron: Barbarossa_, what's the book you mentioned about?
gabriel_laddel_p: for example, are you familiar with the book "the end of error"?
mircea_popescu: not so idiots could "oh noes, typography, like in a book"
a111: Logged on 2017-08-28 23:03 kanzure: "productive results" in my book include cheap genome synthesis, the results of which are easily in reach (engineers haven't even bothered to optimize inkjet firing rate. "boo hoo it overheats and we haven't tried cooling").

danielpbarron: that last thing i did that made the top pops was a loss technically, but i did get a bunch of level 2 gathering skill book blueprints out of it
phf: and the introductions to eliade's book don't go into apologism (unlike evola books, all the english translations require an mandatory disclaimer, that he was a racist, but only a little!1)
mike_c: there's a decently deep book. takes 4500 BCH to get down to 6% right now.
mircea_popescu: but the order book for average start-up is 0 deep.
mike_c: well, there's only as much money as the order book is deep
r0nin-: its just a book keeping entry
mircea_popescu: "It's only a matter of time before one of the Trident submarines are lost. HMS Vanguard a Trident submarine makes an appearance in the book for the deep depth incident. The submarine exceeded 300 meters (safe depth is 65meters). They under estimated the weight of the submarine and didn't have enough speed for the Aft-planes to create raise. The further the submarine descended the more the weight of the submarine increased due
asciilifeform: she wasn't in nomenklatura book.
asciilifeform: motheFUCKER 'route: writing to routing socket: Network is unreachable' when rebooted with the by-the-book static ip config.
asciilifeform: because the shitware iron does not in fact follow anything resembling a spec. it follows a liquishit that would take up five walls of book if ever put to paper -- which it won't be -- and co-developed with winblowz shitware driver, which ~runs, and rathead shitware 'open' sores driver, which runs, and naught ever else.
shinohai: 23:53:31 --> http_GK1wmSU (~deep-book@129.232.221.173) has joined #chainstate << now he's following you ben_vulpes xD
mircea_popescu: there is a moment in frank history when this third brother raised up in rebellion because his father disinherited him. and he had... no artefacts. this was a huge fucking deal, they had not a single book to know how to organize the state/church.
f1maze: at least I dont join/part as much as the deep book^
BingoBoingo: <asciilifeform> expression not so much. readonly is attainable. << Way to make jump seems to be read a book, listen to speakers, interject, keep interjecting until you can swim in conversation
mircea_popescu: per chapter is better than per book, but evidently the correct approach is per-article, which in the antiquated world probably should translate as "per-page".
BingoBoingo: deep-book-gk: What jungle hell hole do you live in that has such poor conectivitit?
deedbot: deep-book-gk voiced for 30 minutes.
BingoBoingo: !!up deep-book-gk
mircea_popescu: in other news, i can't fucking belive nobody has made a Book of Ulterior Doom, consisting of McGonagall poems with Thomas Kinkade illustrations.
phf: for example https://mitpress.mit.edu/sicp/full-text/book/book.html is a classic book on the subject
phf: oh i was just taking a piss, because of asciilifeform's reaction. i don't think you have to go esoteric. i don't know of any books, but early lisp related research had plenty of "metaphysics of computing" papers of varied quality that will probably be easily demolished by any real philosopher. i don't know your level of knowledge but perhaps a "introduction to programming" book would do
ag3nt_zer0: anyone know of a good, or the good, metaphysics of computers or computation book?
palatine: feels strange talking to you after all reading i did, sorta speaking with a character out of a book
phf: i suspect it's more about the choice of data structures. for one there are no allocs (very much in the spirit of ascii's ada explorations), so he probably has a lot of mempools, some byte compression and possibly bit twiddling. i've not read the second book yet, because i still haven't compiled the damn thing outside of the reservation
BingoBoingo: deep-book-gk_: Who is your daddy and what does he do?
deedbot: deep-book-gk_ voiced for 30 minutes.
BingoBoingo: !!Up deep-book-gk_
BingoBoingo: "The Tesla-landian economy, worth 231 billion Coils a year, is led by the Cheese Exports industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Arms Manufacturing, and Retail. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 38,599 Coils, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.2 times as much as the poorest." << Oh my, what is this hippy stuff?
mircea_popescu: right, alf has decided "permanent book, never will rot away" and "1/10th the thickness and 1/3rd the weight of current afid traps" no features./
asciilifeform: but this book would be great, easily hold enough charge to nuke unwary thief
mircea_popescu: how is it not a book. will fucking outlats ANY paper support.
asciilifeform: except it ain't a book, it's a 1980s capacitor from su
mircea_popescu: aluminum will go down to 5 micrometers np. this means 1k pages book = 5mm = 1/5th inch thickness.
phf: but then i was at a potomac jew book club where they were discussing generation p (or one of the earlier novels anyway), and they couldn't get past THE HORROR OF THE 90s, literally entire conversations were about omg so much crime. all these people emigrated right after the collapse, where's for me the staple of 90s (oh there's a dead body on the corner, because petya shnur couldn't share the territory with vasya kulak, shrug) were the norm
phf: no, unfortunately, hardcover book picked up on a moscows trip
asciilifeform: as BingoBoingo's 'big book' reminds.
