BingoBoingo: Maybe it is more common for you to see men use RIGID brand drill presses to accomplish even the most humble hole drilling tasks?
jurov: ah that. had to look 3 times to get it.
BingoBoingo: jurov: mod6 mebbe, but linked mostly for the picture alf singled out.
jurov: BingoBoingo: does anyone in the chan actually need a truck on regular basis?
assbot: What Does Your Work Truck Say About You? ... ( http://bit.ly/1Rmz9tI )
asciilifeform: 'The benefits he has derived from his collegiate experience have been strictly formal, and of no further substance.' << i thought mircea_popescu knew that the usaschwitz 'college racket' has ~0 to do with education, but rather is the only usg-permitted iq test (roughly what grade school was once used for)
assbot: Young Educated Urban Anglophone Male. on Trilema - A blog by Mircea Popescu. ... ( http://bit.ly/1RmyCrq )
mats: (fwiw, got 95 rationale and ref manual in the mail yesterday)
asciilifeform: (you ~can~ use heap. but its presence is not presupposed by the language constructs.)
asciilifeform: on a happy note, appreciate how much ~aggressive sanity~ is baked into ada. it is routine, for example, to program ~without a heap~ !
asciilifeform: anyway who exactly frces you to use weird backend.
shinohai: That looks gross, no thanks.
asciilifeform: i vaguely recall a dark age jvm backend for gcc, perhaps it turned into this.
shinohai: "JGNAT is a version compiled from the Ada programming language to Java bytecode." <<< srsly?
asciilifeform: ben_vulpes et al: believe, if i had another, tastier antidote, i would say. but until then, we will drink this castor.
asciilifeform: antidote to http://log.bitcoin-assets.com//?date=24-01-2016#1384565 . ☝︎
asciilifeform: using the language really feels like 'penance' for lifetime of bug-creation in c/cpp
asciilifeform: no 'aggressive mayogendered' as far as the yes can see...!
assbot: Logged on 27-03-2016 10:24:02; asciilifeform: incidentally, gnat is actually written in ada. and is quite readable... (in as much as such a thing can be called readable)
shinohai: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=27-03-2016#1440538 <<< spoke briefly to mod6 about gnat, still trying to wrap head around ada ☝︎
asciilifeform: because items like 'no overflows, fuck off', 'standard and rationale books', 'i can compile this by hand', or 'i can saw the binary open in ida and it is pretty clear what chunk of asm corresponds to what line of src' are NOT NEGOTIABLE.
asciilifeform: i've been struggling with my gag reflex for > year now, the language is pascal-ugly. but ~there is no sane alternative~ known.
asciilifeform: incidentally, gnat is actually written in ada. and is quite readable... (in as much as such a thing can be called readable) ☟︎
asciilifeform: (the other choice, if trying to escape from ada, is to ditch the c-machine silicon, but i just checked my sofa cushion and still did not find a spare $10m in it with which to do this.)
asciilifeform: (i considered and rejected ml and haskell for this reason. go and explain how they work! can spend a fucking career on that. ick)
asciilifeform: ben_vulpes: ada sucks in 1,001 ways, but unlike every other known non-c, introduction of mystery meat layer between the source semantics and resulting binary is not one f them. which unfortunately makes it the ~only~ sane choice for critical realtime system.
assbot: Logged on 27-03-2016 08:32:09; ben_vulpes: asciilifeform: can you speak to why ada's usgenesis shouldn't set off klaxons?
asciilifeform: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=27-03-2016#1440527 << because motherfucking 1980?? or if you prefer, because it's an ancient gcc frontend? or, if neither satisfies, because its the only compiled lang with knobs to ease binary auditing? ☝︎
shinohai: > tfw 24 hours of logs fits in a single screen now.
davout: ;;later tell kakobrekla http://dpaste.com/1YPJKPS.txt
ben_vulpes: asciilifeform: can you speak to why ada's usgenesis shouldn't set off klaxons? ☟︎
BingoBoingo: ben_vulpes: What about just positioning them relative enough?
asciilifeform: than take any part in wwwistic miseries.
ben_vulpes: asciilifeform: i'd certainly rather feed racoons with food taped to my body than figure out how to position elements relative to each other
ben_vulpes: holy shit does browser positioning fail to respect the right hand rule?
mats: looks like a text to speech thing
assbot: Qntra | Reporting the Intersection of Bitcoin, Technology, and Politics ... ( http://bit.ly/1ZEFpPs )

asciilifeform: danielpbarron or other biblical scholar wants to answer this riddle ^ ?
assbot: Logged on 25-03-2016 20:48:10; pete_dushenski: this 'protection'/extortion business model could be just the gravity well extractor that guys like asciilifeform need. it can even be done from laptop on beach!
asciilifeform: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=25-03-2016#1440358 << i wonder why pete_dushenski did not likewise suggest spamming. it has exactly the same 'hollywood tournament market' profit distribution. ftr i was a malware hunter and exterminator for some years. 99+% of ransomware artists made ~0. ☝︎
assbot: Logged on 25-03-2016 20:41:44; jurov: you see - they are used to pay for licenses. whether to m$ or to extortionist, makes a little difference

assbot: Logged on 14-01-2016 15:11:05; mircea_popescu: ;;later tell mike_c here's a thought, in http://www.btcalpha.com/wot/ might be a good idea to hide users not seen in i dunno, a quarter ? a year ? something ? explained, and with link for "full list".

jurov: - good only if you want to sweeten a bit
jurov: yes i like stevia too.. but for someone who is used to high sugar concentrations, stevia has unsavory taste
cazalla_: i bought a stevia plant last year, not bad to nom nom on a few leaves when wanting something sugary
jurov: they will switch to *blergh* sweeteners
cazalla_: don't see how teh tax will change anything anyway, consumers will just pay it as no other option (sif they're gonna drink water)
BingoBoingo: jurov: Here I don't know that fountain sodas under a liter are sold anywhere
jurov: cazalla_ is prolly surrounded by health-minded canucks.. but the cocacola revenue must have come from somewhere
pete_dushenski: bucharesti kid i know, bout my age, drinks 2l of coke per day. smokes pretty heavily too.
jurov: dunno about indonesia, in eastern europe very common. even my dad can't be convinced not to buy it ☟︎

pete_dushenski: cazalla_: better ice cream for breakfast than at midnight
BingoBoingo: The idiocracy guy was wrong here in the states. In future 'Murica carbonation will be "what plants crave"
jurov: i knew people who drank liter or two of coke daily
cazalla_: i imagine obesity is more the result of icecream for breakfast than occasional coke

phf: (jeff k is of course a something awful spoof of a teenage script kiddie culture of late 90s, that in turn spun off 4chan culture. old fags remember, that early /b/ was essentially a bunch of snarky mofos pretending to be jeff k style idiots, which in turn eternally september into actual idiots acting like idiots, etc)
