mircea_popescu: anyway, to the more general point here : i'm the only entity that can't be held hostage. "oh, we won't do X until you Y" works when I say it at others, not when others try it on me. you can't say "hey mp, you gotta do it like this", because the point isn't for me to get something done, the point is for me to change the way things are done in the first place.

mircea_popescu wake me up plz when you've transmuted the x to a y'
ascii_field:
mircea_popescu: possibly the hidden gotcha is that internet hasn't been invented yet on my planet. (i.e. folks offering the sort of work that i do, demand at least occasional physical chair parade)
ascii_field: and
mircea_popescu still wonders how come i haven't moved ?
mircea_popescu: ascii_field no,

mircea_popescu forgets why ?
thestringpuller: I think
mircea_popescu underestimates the amount of effort that goes into tayloring game art skills.
ascii_field: also iirc
mircea_popescu didn't hire people ?
ascii_field:
mircea_popescu: laugh all you like, but i went & found a new gig the 'mainstream' way, sans meatwot
ascii_field:

pete_dushenski:
mircea_popescu: waitwut THAT'S the hierarchy ? easier to own woman than car ?

mircea_popescu: which is why i am not ever giving it up. the freedom to threaten is not merely my fundamental, unassailable sovereign property, but moreover essential for the construction of effectual instruments to squash the socialists and their golums.

mircea_popescu: that is the idea, yes. but the other idea is that it's not safe to use more than a few hundred words because natural language usage does not normally distribute.

"they've commited a billion they'd never pay and i'll do things i'm never actually doing". мы делаем вид что работаем а государство делает вид что платит нам зарплату for the new soviet generation.

mircea_popescu: (i did find the answer, a half hour of labour later, and exactly in the "basic science upon the software" sense djikstra was discussing. and i'm betting you don't know either. pos html omfg.)

mircea_popescu doesn't seem much problem with fucking bleeding woman. a) sex can lead to bleeding anyway and b) you're fucking hr in the ass, might as well.
danielpbarron:
mircea_popescu, it seems to me that the guy with the harem is probably the one tasked with setting the rules for the whole town. So that's that.

mircea_popescu: to comprehend how fundamental this all is, look at a leaky toilet sometime, or any flow on an incline. you should be able to observe regions moving UPSTREAM. "oh it's not supposed to do that" "said who ?" "newton".

mircea_popescu: and whatever enthusiasm may tell you about this, there's a very fucking fundamental problem here. you don't get to control backflow and complex emergent behaviours just because you don't want to think about them
