asciilifeform: https://bitbet.us/bet/1249/alphago-will-defeat-lee-sedol-overall-in-march/#c5867 << there is what, dozen of these, and i dun think they're all nubbins`..
mircea_popescu: possibly the one place for ai in intelligent discourse.
mircea_popescu: it occurs rto me - someone should get google to make googlebot author a collection of jokes.
asciilifeform: and yeah eclipse is this thing where there are 10,001 plugins, prolly one of them eats it.
mircea_popescu: might as well use vi then, equally unaware of the world.
asciilifeform: i wouldn't dream of using it for a project tho
mircea_popescu: da fuck is the point of an ide that doesn't support things.
mircea_popescu: soooo then....
mircea_popescu: so then you DO know what it is!
asciilifeform: (rotor invokes boost's jam thing but trb, recall, builds with ordinary gnumake)
asciilifeform: very bulky thing, written in java
asciilifeform: it is text editor
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform now i'd rather fancy to see this thing. pic it sometime.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform uneven ? bordered by some concrete margin of no apparent utility than to ensure it turns into a river if it rains ?
assbot: Povestea celor trei imparati smecheri si a celor trei negustori fraieri - fabula in versuri ilustrata on Trilema - A blog by Mircea Popescu. ... ( http://bit.ly/25dHZjf )
mircea_popescu: (speaking of which, http://trilema.com/2011/povestea-celor-trei-imparati-smecheri-si-a-celor-trei-negustori-fraieri-fabula-in-versuri-ilustrata/ << about the most insulting to romanian sensibilities thing out there.
asciilifeform: and i have grass like this right here in my backyard!11
mircea_popescu: everything, EVERYTHING screams it. the odd attire of the brunette walking away. the facade of the apartment building. that ugly monkey bar set ; the thin grass, the inconvenient walkway. absolute item.
mircea_popescu: oh and also : the definitive romania http://36.media.tumblr.com/d3e5c0ad09bffa6f2cc89a0cd749c032/tumblr_n8vifxwcK91sd6qo9o1_1280.jpg
asciilifeform: l0l! what is the old man wearing ?!
mircea_popescu: (if you think about it, worst cinematic villain line of all time, most insulting to "the gods" of the viewer ? "you will never be as good as me." o noes!)
mircea_popescu: so of fucking course modernity would be unthinking, for which reason sterile, and centralizing, for which reason boring. it has to be, its aims require it, its basic tenets imply it.
assbot: Logged on 17-03-2016 21:09:58; mircea_popescu: anyway. by and large, the "cleanning out corruption" narrative is what happens to a colonized place, ie, after the top leadership was defeated.
mircea_popescu: (it wasn't good enough anyway - it was, don't you know, ~corrupt~!!!!. see http://log.bitcoin-assets.com//?date=17-03-2016#1435480 for what "corruption" means and how that narrative plays.) ☝︎
mircea_popescu: going to church, just as good as living well ; and then when going to church is too much trouble, going to protestant church "inside oneself" just as good as going to the proper one.
mircea_popescu: so then, in this perspective, balabusta (fat jewish housewife), who is absolutely the apotheosis of bourgeois society, will make clam chowder (just as good as) out of whatever it is she finds in her pantry, such as for instance beans.
mircea_popescu: no wonder and no explanation needed that darwin became such a religious lightning rod. theory of... "evolution". there's no evolution involved in darwinism, per se. a wasp today has "evolved" just as much and for just as long as jane austin "evolved".
mircea_popescu: going to unversity, just as good as thinking. fast food, just as good as food.
mircea_popescu: reading dickens, just as good as having a life. reading age of exploration crud, just as good as having travelled.
mircea_popescu: phf the whole premise of bourgeois society is "me too". apprentice wizard "becoming" "just as good" as wizard. sons becoming just as good as fathers. seedling becoming just as tree as the tree.
deedbot-: [» Contravex: A blog by Pete Dushenski] The Brothers Grimsby - http://www.contravex.com/2016/03/20/the-brothers-grimsby/
asciilifeform: you gotta remove the crud first.
asciilifeform: but this is a half-truth.
asciilifeform: for some reason many folks focus on ~synthesis~ as the main act of productive thought
asciilifeform: see also the 'inventors - cut things' thread.
asciilifeform: aha, this removal is imho ~the~ business.
phf: very little thinking is going on, most of so called thinking is integration and regurgitation of past thinking, that trickles from occasional pockets where thinking happened. by the time one integrates that thinking one is disinclined to further think (for one is a ph.d. or whatever at that point). but any question can be grothendieck-ed if you're so inclined, to reveal and remove your systemd's and kdbus's
phf: i have a hunch that this is not a conspiracy of incompetents, but rather an aspect of the whole knowing the unknown in relation to yourhead. i.e. stupid is not obscurantist for your benefit, but for own
asciilifeform: phf: the mega-discovery (at least to me) last month is that this is ~still so~ for 'official' crypto
phf: as manifest in every "my first crypto", this is so convoluted i can't grok it, surely nobody else can
asciilifeform: the 'unknownity' of which is not an attribute of ~them~ but of the ~system~ of them+yourhead
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu et al: incidentally, this edges into the definition of 'random', as per the 1,001 threads on subj. specifically, solving a problem ~you already know the solution to~ is O(1) in all cases!111
mircea_popescu: un minimo respecto por el trabajador, i say.
asciilifeform: see also the idiocy of 'nothing-up-my-sleeve constants'
mircea_popescu: then i get incensed when derps start with the "~~~~~I~~~~~ don't see how..."
mircea_popescu: "i kept no records of the presumptions i made in constructing the subclass, therefore no such presumptions exist!"
asciilifeform: this is actually much harder than it appears, because there must also be a proof that the PARTICULAR INSTANCES of the problem you make use of are ~likewise~ of the worst AVERAGE CASE complexity
mats: am posting in reference to thread
asciilifeform: mats: see old thread;
assbot: complexity theory - Why hasn't there been an encryption algorithm that is based on the known NP-Hard problems? - Computer Science Stack Exchange ... ( http://bit.ly/1nZDTcK )
thestringpuller: i'll have to grep it for when it stopped
asciilifeform: thestringpuller: post your debug.log tail ?
thestringpuller: damn. this stuck node thing.....
mircea_popescu: in other news, i had never discussed theology on a blog before. dat republic!
asciilifeform: could marry six times before breakfast.
asciilifeform: ok now this makes sense.
mircea_popescu: just like not recognizing the institution of marriage doesn't mean you never marry. it means that you randomly and entirely unreliably marry.
mircea_popescu: if you think that you can in any manner or for any purpose distinguish any bitcoin from any bitcoin we can't be friends.
asciilifeform: would that not mean ~refusing~ to use secret addrs?
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform << undisclosed addresses? unprincipled-exception from 'no such thing as taint' ?!! << very principled. "no such thing as taint" means that i do not recognize the concept, or any reasoning that relies on it. it very pointedly does not mean i will behave in such a manner as to protect the taint assumptions of third parties but just the opposite.
asciilifeform: soo it goes in the kbd. luckily ps/2 is very simple to talk in, you can use , e.g., a 16f84
mircea_popescu: good thing they implemented orc glyphs tho.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: i use coreboot, and would put in what i want, but the ~hardware~ makes no provision
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform> iirc gimp once used it, but now has the latter << yea.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform> hell i'd put it in bios if x86 had any provision for this <<< odd that the bios has provision for any and all retarded shits, including "power saving" but not for defining the buttons.
assbot: Logged on 20-03-2016 15:31:18; phf: there's a very vocal minority trying to get it into emacs as a replacement for elisp, you'll have an elisp emulation layer, but you can also have javascript emulation layer!!1
asciilifeform: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=20-03-2016#1436666 << elisp , and emacs as a whole , suck donkey balls. it is in many ways a microscopic model of how linux sucks, a turd for which NO replacement is available, so it is kept on life support at all costs . ☝︎
asciilifeform: and bacterium eats coward and hero just the same at the end of the war.
mircea_popescu: hey, aggressive mediocrities ALWAYS fuck over neurotic geniuses / lazy talent.
asciilifeform: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=20-03-2016#1436599 << 'us too! if usg can hand out $B to aggressive mediocrities, so can we!111' ☝︎
phf: i assume it can be built with qt3, but it still hard depends on dbus? or you mean that it just requires patching
asciilifeform: and anything that fails to build after that, is not respecting the flag, and has to be either discarded or patched.
asciilifeform: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=20-03-2016#1436653 << you gotta ~mask~ and flag. what this does is to guarantee that the thing won't be pulled, but at the same time allow other things that might be severable from the dependency to still build. ☝︎
phf: there's a very vocal minority trying to get it into emacs as a replacement for elisp, you'll have an elisp emulation layer, but you can also have javascript emulation layer!!1 ☟︎
asciilifeform: i have nfi what the upside of guile was supposed to be
phf: right, even hardcore schemers (of the mit/scheme48 background) think it's pos
asciilifeform: very heavy relativly to ts
asciilifeform: it is a turd incidentally
phf: guile is the old warhorse of the "scheme in emacs!!" agenda, pretty sure even naggum ranted about it ☟︎
asciilifeform: iirc gimp once used it, but now has the latter
asciilifeform: used as a tinyscheme of sorts
asciilifeform: i started actually making a systematic list of exclusions, then barfed, really we want to enumerate ~good~ parts, they are few
phf: also i learned that gnutls depends on guile :o
phf: seems like the kind of thing that would be worthwhile to diff against chicken
assbot: Logged on 20-03-2016 13:53:13; mircea_popescu: ;;later tell koinplug a) mpex also uses undisclosed addresses in special cases ; b) we have some old fixed-price contracts with some users who renew their key periodically.
asciilifeform: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=20-03-2016#1436602 << undisclosed addresses? unprincipled-exception from 'no such thing as taint' ?!! ☝︎
assbot: Logged on 20-03-2016 14:54:42; *: trinque has a similarly neutered personal recipe
asciilifeform: but yes, kernel needs to have key rebind, to make laptop behave sanely
asciilifeform: so it ends up going in the keyboard.
asciilifeform: hell i'd put it in bios if x86 had any provision for this
asciilifeform: i don't EVER want capslock to not be ctrl.
asciilifeform: prior to whatever else
assbot: Logged on 20-03-2016 15:04:05; phf: also anyone tried doing a kernel level key rebind before? is that just in config or you need to patch source. i want to switch some keys around, but i don't want to have to do it for every single userland environment
asciilifeform: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=20-03-2016#1436625 << afaik there is no provision for this, because retardation ☝︎
assbot: Logged on 20-03-2016 15:02:08; phf: asciilifeform: did you manage to get emacs to build on musl gentoo? (i.e. does the musl patches overlay include a solution for temacs dump process)
asciilifeform: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=20-03-2016#1436624 << not tried yet. but expect this to fail. ☝︎
phf: also anyone tried doing a kernel level key rebind before? is that just in config or you need to patch source. i want to switch some keys around, but i don't want to have to do it for every single userland environment ☟︎
phf: asciilifeform: did you manage to get emacs to build on musl gentoo? (i.e. does the musl patches overlay include a solution for temacs dump process) ☟︎
asciilifeform: the point of my config was to stop the crud from getting pulled in by portage at every turn, which it otherwise does.
asciilifeform: danielpbarron made same thing earlier? ( no dbus, etc. ) ? neato.
