ben_vulpes: my local-
as-in-my-ten-foot-bubble requires it.
 ascii_deadfiber: jurov: i find it at least 
as sinful to ~eat~ an 'i agree, signed - X' 
as to ~shit~ it.
 a111: Logged on 2016-03-28 15:41 asciilifeform: y'know, 
as a boy, i was playing with other boyz in the yard and mentioned съезд кпсс , and they laughed. i learned lesson - for life.
 mircea_popescu: this, 
as the foreign women stuck helping me out here readily confirm, is just about representative of the derpitude of the local mind.
 mircea_popescu: there's obviously no stable solution for this problem, inasmuch 
as it's the nonsensical issues of a bunch of parochical derps. nevertheless, i wouldn't properly call it "corewars" either, there's no core involved. periphery wars ?
 mircea_popescu: The DOA event caused a dumpocalypse on them forcing them to absorb even more losses.  This single entity that controls the ETh price is underwater 
as fuck now and probably desperate to rid himself of some of those scamtokens.  I have a feeling the only reason it made it that high of value in the first place is the Eth devs themselves sent a bunch of Eth to Poloniex, then used those coins for collateral to margin long it to th
 pete_dushenski: dollies, other boy's bumholes, own bumholes, video games, dronez... all more 'fun' than being 'slave' 
as understood from social studies textbook
 mircea_popescu: and at least the hookers actually deliver, 
as opposed to that dummy "bitcoin chamber of derpitude" what's her face.
 mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo seems dubious this guy got the stones, but anyway. their fear is not unjustified. 
as you say - gotta happen.
 mircea_popescu: buildiong a wall, what diff does it make. just 
as long 
as they die in 6 to 9 months.
 gernika: trinque: it's not just the libtards that loathe him.  I think the libertarians 
as well, and they might hate him more.
 mircea_popescu recalls with some amusement the certain certainness of various derps, "professional" 
as well 
as amateur, ritously explaining how trump won't get the nomination.
 BingoBoingo: <mircea_popescu> o look, meanwhile paul ryan is actually quitting ? << Indeterminate, but 
as I suggested "backup GOP"
 ascii_deadfiber: '...when your civilization is collapsing, civilized people become a liability. It may not even be just a question of culture or society; it may be a question of breeding. Just 
as you can breed hunting dogs to specifically disable certain instinctive behaviors—pointers don't attack the prey but stupidly stand there pointing; retrievers stupidly carry the prey back instead of eating it on the spot—you can also breed a race 
 mircea_popescu: Bugpowder see, that's the problem : if the aspie 14% ended up in  south western version of auschwitz, with 3% survival rates, ~nobody with a us passport would 
as much 
as raise an eyebrow.
 BingoBoingo: Johnson-Weld 2016! At least they aren't 
as fat!
 trinque: "encourage him to check his testicles regularly for lumps -- or check them yourself 
as part of foreplay"
 ascii_deadfiber: and apparently i was wrong, it has ~same throughput 
as the genuine article.
 mircea_popescu: this means :1. illiterate and 2. mentally dim. i'm not sure 2 can be understood by anyone who has never interacted with the subhuman population of the 3rd world, but it is this bizarre situation where speech does not serve 
as a condensed version of the future.
 a111: Logged on 2016-06-21 20:56 thestringpuller: its usually to cut down on spam, 
as I won't respond to recruiter inquiries unless they show up on IRC
 mircea_popescu: in general, all prb soft forks will be unwound, at such a time 
as judged most inconvenient to non-tmsr participants.
 a111: Logged on 2016-06-21 19:49 ascii_deadfiber: that the buildout of old folks homes etc will be re-used 
as психушкаs when the generation currently occupying them expires
 ascii_deadfiber: not so strong that can be used 
as crowbar and then expect the clockwork to work.
 ascii_deadfiber: i would ask 'is it instead designed 
as a blunt weapon' but no, because aluminum

 ☟︎ BingoBoingo: Described in mines 
as "checksequenceverify (CSV) is a group of 3 BIPs that will enable relative time locks. This will let you lock money for a predetermined period after your transaction confirms. The time can be a time measured in multiples of 512 seconds or a block count."
 ascii_deadfiber: that the buildout of old folks homes etc will be re-used 
as психушкаs when the generation currently occupying them expires
 ☟︎ mircea_popescu: then there was the whole craig whatever incident. where the usg assets in bitcoin (gavin & all) swore 
as to the authenticity of a gross fake.
 trinque: 
as it stands, it's using indexed unique fields
 trinque: soon 
as I get to it, rating's going to get switched to foreign keys; I'll warn you first
 BingoBoingo: No, not trolling in that sense. Trolling 
as in fishing, 
as in doing the actual work of SEO.
 shinohai: "portly" meaning "wide 
as port side"?
 mircea_popescu: very different (in the sense of being opposite) to pragmatism 
as a current in anglosaxon thought. which is more like, "keep all doors and windows shut and only open something once you're sure there's nothing there".
 phf: right, i mean i'm being dense 
as far 
as how that maps to the mini rant
 mircea_popescu: phf "a house enough to sit in and land 
as far 
as your eye can see"
 a111: Logged on 2016-06-20 18:42 asciilifeform: for so long 
as 'you can't buy this video board any moar' is a thing, at ALL, there neither is nor can be such a thing 
as sane driver set.
 mircea_popescu: i have doubts, 
as an anthropologist i mean, that this was EVER actually the case. it seems altogether plausible that the ~idea~ of turdmarket driving things was perceived 
as "likely to occur" in general and perhaps circumstantially occuring in some spots, but the trends are separating not joining
 mircea_popescu: asciilifeform seems altogether improbable that 
as of today the turdmarket is the driver of anything.
 mircea_popescu: jurov is it practical to just "do the same thing 
as Framedragger " ?
 phf: well, it can be rebuilt 
as a staging platform, sort of like instead of building own city, can just use the carcass of a roman settlement. it's not rome, but with some study can understand rome nature and work towards that.

as I know that's yet to be updated with new data

 Framedragger: i.e. do the loop of for each 
as part of the query itself; but maybe you already do that
 mircea_popescu: such a worldy man 
as roger ver should fucking know what that costs.
 mircea_popescu: the cheek of the usg agents, you know. "legal system" czar gave them the note signed by hitler, they perceive responsibility 
as a thing of the past.
 mircea_popescu:  I myself used a Hole Hawg to drill many holes through studs, which it did 
as a blender chops cabbage. I also used it to cut a few six-inch-diameter holes through an old lath-and-plaster ceiling. I chucked in a new hole saw, went up to the second story, reached down between the newly installed floor joists, and began to cut through the first-floor ceiling below. Where my homeowner's drill had labored and whined to spin the hu
 phf: (also can be used 
as re-entry burn up flak on ballistics)
 phf: mircea_popescu: c'mon we are reminiscing, "in soviet union men wrought tools out of steal and built bridges that lead to god's own gates! women made pillows that were feather but light than feathers and 
as you lay on those pillows you needed to sleep for five minutes, but it was 
as if you slept ad libitum"
 phf: you had to take that little cover off to put oil in, otherwise it'd run not 
as smooth, so you kind of learn when to oil it. then periodically you had to clean it fully, because mostly wood, metal and oil would get inside make soup
 phf: i'm pretty sure i've done that, at least to prime the spot. also 
as a child that's kind of a natural inclination 
 ben_vulpes: but hey the walls are actually hand-done plaster, and the door arches 
as well.
 Framedragger: might 
as well, will see if i can / he responds :)
 pete_dushenski: turns out that ios will also auto-download the update 
as soon 
as you connect to wifi (it's a 200+ mb file) and harass you 2-5 PER DAY until you submit to installing it.
 pete_dushenski: 'dead 
as obama' may also have been the tongue-in-cheek reference
 mircea_popescu: btw, why did the ethereum people misspell "dead on arrival" 
as "dao" anyway. too much ritalin ?
 mircea_popescu: except, they charitize correcly : the giver 
as the sole arbiter of the degree, kind and type of want.
 mircea_popescu: but in that laboratory setting, they still live 
as humans, and display human behaviours, such 
as charity.
 mircea_popescu: i suppose the one point easily missed is that ~the one in need~ is no arbiter of the type, degree and kind of his need! the one GIVING is the sole fucking arbiter 
as to what the needy needs, when and how much of it.
 mircea_popescu: in fact, if the poor complain that charity 
as-is is insufficient, you're a thousand times better off simply burning them all down than trying to "optimize" it.
 mircea_popescu: denying the crap is, at least to my eyes, just 
as important if not more important than bitcoining.
 mircea_popescu: anyway, the insidiousness of christianity, 
as a jewish sect, is the whole "must take care of the poor" thing.
 mircea_popescu: this is not so universal. some places/people can't live 
as independent human beings.
 mircea_popescu: this moves the discussion to a debate 
as to the true substance of that place.
 mircea_popescu: i for instance count philosophy 
as such "differentiates" us. you apparently only count a narrow definition of math-engineering ?
 mircea_popescu: point in case : there isn't a 1% 
as much bitcoin-culture in all the usg.mit, usg.whartever sponsored "teams" and "think tanks" and etc of what's here.
 mircea_popescu: the point being - that not only is the palace economy drone incapable of living 
as an effectual human being. it is much more importantly UNWILLING TO BECOME ONE. which is the main point.
