mircea_popescu: anyway, it's mostly "cloud" bullshit anyway, so don't regard any of this
as peculiarly reliable info.
mircea_popescu: this, incidentally, is EXACTLY what technology debt means. apply bullshit "fixes"
as MIT & co bright minds produce,
a111: Logged on 2016-06-23 14:30 Framedragger: (e.g. i agree with chomsky's "There is a notion of success ... which I think is novel in the history of science. It interprets success
as approximating unanalyzed data." which does indeed suck.)
phf: maybe i should see if i can get it working on cmucl and adopt it
as my default server, hmmm. it does look hell of overengineered
trinque: there was the same "multiple shooters" chatter around orlando
as many other events
mircea_popescu: anyway, the whole thing is a "gun control" ie, make the us
as "immigrant"-friendly
as rotterham, uk. bullshit.
diana_coman: well, my first experience
as an employee, while still studying: something goes wrong and I'm the only one to make a fuss about it
mircea_popescu: girl explained this to me
as to the amorous life of teenagers. they don't want sex
as much, she said, with its icky dirty scary reality,
as they want the possibility of having it, which is endorphin ladden goodness.
diana_coman: heh, I guess I'm saying the same thing
as mircea_popescu there
Framedragger: mircea_popescu: hmm; but you did supply her with some "aesthetics" feedback, maybe even a floating point value,
as in, "better/worse than before", perhaps
diana_coman: that thing when it *works*
as in...now, this particular thing, don't change anything or it might all fall down
a111: Logged on 2016-06-23 14:26 mircea_popescu: now, it is real easy to grant that "machine can't resolve because irl it takes more neurons than there's atoms in the cpu". but this is a total cop-out, i can string together an infinity of computers,
as bitcoin has shown.
mircea_popescu: diana_coman more importantly : they are tools, programmed
as tools, expected to deliver untool likethings.

☟︎ mircea_popescu:
as in the joke with the romanian police and the bear, "give me this djinn for a week"
mircea_popescu: (ftr, this school of "Slave should be tool - simple
as possible" exists, and its product is outrageous and ridiculous by turns. they do think themselves "the real" bdsm people though, against the method-acting larger set (hint : if the word "scene" is mentioned - method actors))
mircea_popescu:
as proven by the fact that the girls in question start acting like one even if not specifically trained to be one.
Framedragger: the case with rsa keys - it would be very difficult to write it up / interpret it
as per your idea though, i think? unless the case was explicitly declared before, and that would break the whole idea (negative meaning, not (only) positive/exhaustive meaning)
mircea_popescu: if a software project did
as much importing
as the average trilema article does, it'd be openssh.
mircea_popescu: diana_coman irl it worked
as, to quote famous wilde tidbit, "i leave it to you to to fix the here's and there's".
Framedragger: (in paraconsistent systems, they try to "contain" cases when `p && ~p`. normally by principle of explosion you can prove anything (`1. p. 2. p || q [from 1, disjunctive addition.] 3. ~p [given.] 4. q [from 2. and 3.]`). these systems remove one or another inference rule (e.g. that p || q may follow from p, or double negation, or something else), or *suspend* it, in the fashion that some equations may have complex numbers
as intermediary
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform
as an ideal output, i would like a debian distro that says "you can't possibly mean to make these keys out of 32k sets ?!"
mircea_popescu: (and in this sense, i view eg the debian key disaster thing
as collapse, exactly like the tay bridge failure say)
mircea_popescu: they sure
as fuck haven't before the greeks or w/e, that's not millions opf years.
mircea_popescu: but then... there's no such thing
as "speech", and children of random parents can learn random unrelated language.
mircea_popescu: but i meant in the general,
as a theoretical possibility. how the fuck...
a111: Logged on 2016-06-23 12:27 asciilifeform: proggy does not compress. head does not have the handy lossy compressor,
as for human text.
mircea_popescu: ~exactly how it went for rome~ also. and byzantium
as well.
mircea_popescu: it will pay ransoms even
as it can't pay to import grain
mircea_popescu: i dunno, i'm wrong all the fucking time, at least
as far
as i can see. i guess not usually on thosethings people'd much rather i were wrong on
a111: Logged on 2016-06-23 11:13 mircea_popescu: and b) a RICO-worthy criminal conspiracy, replete with fraud etc, to marginalize, intimidate and if need be assassinate "opponents"
as defined by a group of nuts
Framedragger:
http://btcbase.org/log/2016-06-23#1487858 << this i agree with! however, be it
as it may i've never seen mp graciously accept to being wrong on some point. now, that *may* be because mp isn't wrong a whole lotta times, i contend, yes; but it's still hilarious to me (in a stimulating kind of way, fwiw). e.g. the chinese konspiraci thing, it was posted on qntra by mircea_popescu, and then later mircea_popescu says the theory is legit becau
☝︎ diana_coman: in my book programmers are exactly those who write code
as a rational creation
hanbot: "ftr when he joined this place, it was purely about business and so was he. later he was wrapping business in propaganda, which is tolerable,
as the core is solid. now he is wrapping propaganda in business wrap, at which point it becomes intolerable for any reasonable mind." << i don't, for example, seem to remember the same thing. at all.
mircea_popescu: anyway, for argentine
as well
as any derps who have nfi what "night life" means : follow along the fucking pictures
http://www.clujlife.com with the knowledge that a) the nudes aren't published, by convention, but girls go naked all the time ; b) it's a tiny fucking town, half a mil population if the school's in session.
mircea_popescu: and b) a RICO-worthy criminal conspiracy, replete with fraud etc, to marginalize, intimidate and if need be assassinate "opponents"
as defined by a group of nuts
☟︎ mircea_popescu: a) a model that you could put anything in, such
as the weighs or the ages of your past girflriends, to take out the same exact pattern
mircea_popescu: what they had done was, take ~50 years of atmospheric data, "reconstruct" on its basis about 100k years of imaginary history, then show on the basis of this projection rebranded
as "data" that TEMPERATURES ARE RAISING!!11\
Framedragger: "LGBTQ2 refers to people who identify
as lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer/questioning or two-spirited."
mircea_popescu: i don't get it. gun shop refused selling to alcoholic wifebeater, he identifies
as "journalist" and butthurts all over ?
mircea_popescu: just because the comment-out is communicated in-band rather than explicitly given
as // or whatever doesn't mean it's strongly typed.
BingoBoingo: Because you can quarentine nonsense
as isolated strings and lol about them. If you can't do that they'd eventually start making you stupid.
BingoBoingo: alf failed to pars the "just want to" and made a point of the statement not parsing. It's not made for parsing though because jwz just wants to. Nothing wrong with tossing around the "just wants to"
as a string like any other though.
BingoBoingo: alf tried to parse the jwz "just want to"
as an instruction whereas you treated it
as a antifact of the broken jwz
mircea_popescu: and for anyone who deludes himself into fucking thinking that "women voting" and "divorce" is "what made '''america''' ungreat again", seriously, come to fucking argentina. they're just
as dickless
as you are and women here don't get to divorce anyone.
a111: Logged on 2016-06-22 18:46 mircea_popescu: how THE FUCK do they get away with it. i mean, they still give the bums the sort of stuff bums misrepresenting tghemselves
as "students" and "With potential!" get all over the world
phf: there's a "mail client" which is a modality, can be inline, can be a popup,
as long
as everything's kept in same modality. "now i interact with electronic mail, what pray is this pdf document??"
mircea_popescu: but this is a deeply broken manner of thinking about terminals,
as if one's forever stuck on ONE
phf: no, no, not mine, i explicitly use "in"
as a windowism, because it's a thinking thing
phf: when i started using emacs there was an almost ideological aversion to DWIM in the community, instead of having say smart context "search" thing you'd have a dozen search-foo-in-bar combinations, and that was thought The Right Thing. emacs has long been dragged in the dwim direction by the usual suspects, but the vogue elsewhere is now dwiw, i.e. do what i want.
as explicit/"want" gap gets bigger, you're going to have all kinds of attack vectors o
mircea_popescu:
as well
as to the fortune teller who importantly prophesizes "things will occur and phenomena will happen"
mircea_popescu: mno, that's not the right equivalency. the right equivalency is "you could just
as well say dangerous day" means nothing.
mircea_popescu: but no, it turns out that it stands for "Hot Body",
as a sort of you know, scoring systems.
mircea_popescu: how THE FUCK do they get away with it. i mean, they still give the bums the sort of stuff bums misrepresenting tghemselves
as "students" and "With potential!" get all over the world
☟︎ mircea_popescu: they wanted THIRTY EIGHT PESOS for the thing. this is
as much
as it costs in the poshiest cafe i go to.
mircea_popescu: quite the kalash of its own, that thing,
as it turns out.
trinque: jurov: there, be
as floppy
as you want, puny human
☟︎ a111: Logged on 2016-06-22 12:04 ascii_deadfiber: and it isn't
as if usg BUYS btc anyway
ascii_deadfiber: i had a gigantic bag full of such keys
as a boy to play with.
ascii_deadfiber: i'd bridge the 2 lans and avoid the ascii_misc_rubbish gymnastics but will need mechanism to switch off zoolag so
as not to exhaust the gsm bw quota
