mircea_popescu: the remnants, in both cases, are
this ridoinculous us pretense, much in
the way "indians" survived
there.
mircea_popescu: the sad
truth of
the 20th century history is
that hitler did in fact succeed ; much more
than
the italian
twerp succeeded in wiping
the mafia -
the nazis managed
to actually end judaism.
phf: i'm waiting for western ashkenazim
to start embracing persecution as a status symbol, kind of like how affirmative action devalued blacks in workforce,
this is
the opposite. was a bit of a
thing in su, in some professions (anything related
to mil for example) if you were known
to be of jewish descent (you wouldn't be on paper, but "people
talk") it was also kind of assumed
that you were whicked smart
to get in
mircea_popescu: "To suggest
that antisemitism can ever be explained, rather
than condemned, is insensitive and, frankly, bizarre. AQA needs
to explain how and why
this question was included in an exam paper."
mircea_popescu: but yes, fine, fine, should be on
that biographical list danielpbarron was making.
mircea_popescu: it has a splendid statement of cauchy's binding of riemann zeta
terms among other goodies.
mircea_popescu: i do not recall a single instance of a nude or nude-tolerant place where fat people voluntarily attempted
to participate.
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: Well, with
the poor filter for keeping out undesirables USian 20 somethings are burdened with, nudity invites circus freak disaster
mircea_popescu: how
the fuck did
these beached whales survive pre wikitwittereddit i'll never know.
mircea_popescu: "Whit Stillman was born in 1952 and raised in Cornwall in upstate New York,
the son of a impoverished débutante from Philadelphia and a Democratic politician from Washington D.C."
mircea_popescu: which is unfortunate, seeing how
the whole
thing's one huge monologue.
BingoBoingo: <mircea_popescu>
they're 20somethings who seriously party dressed. << In
the US,
the hamplanet hazard means 20 somethings gotta party dressed lest people get
triggered of ham-raped
mircea_popescu: it's seriously worth seeing just
to see what i
think of us "upper crust".
mircea_popescu: chiefly because
the ustards are
too fucking dumb
to even comprehend unintentional selfbattery.
mircea_popescu: anyway, it has everything, including a fucktard who proposes
to name
themselves "urban haute bourgeoisie"
mircea_popescu: written/directed by one whit stillman. which in itself is amusing, like amateur pornographers making vhs
tapes with cardboard credits reading Rick Steele or some shit.
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: someone's gotta
take a hit for
the
team
mircea_popescu: in other news i just watched
the most ridiculous idiocy ever. i'm
talking "robot king kong from outer space" level here.
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: You gotta remember at one point I was able
to appreciate
the sports stuff
that didn't suck for a while. Now I just drink
tears as it
tears itself appart.
joecool: i read parts of
the logs from
time
to
time
mircea_popescu: gotta say i admire your patience with
the gawker stuff.
joecool: BingoBoingo:
thanks but i *could* do
that if i had much
to say at
the moment
danielpbarron: a fat picker?? mega-surprise
that went on for more
than
two weeks.
mircea_popescu: "forces one
to
think" usually works like
that - discovers just how many strongmen are
there.
mircea_popescu: the results - "1% of
the policemen are intelligent, 99% of policemen are strong."
mircea_popescu: one of
the
tests involves one of
those boxes with shapes cut into
the side and
the actual shapes made out of wood outside
mircea_popescu: after ro joins eu,
they
try
to improve
the quality of police force. send psychologists
to
test
the policemen
mircea_popescu: to date every experiment in forcing people
to
think has resulted in broken
tools.
mircea_popescu: #This
thing is made by drepper, and while it doesn't per se suck, it very likely lies.
mircea_popescu: #This
thing is made by me and it sucks but doesn't lie.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform : 0, 1, inf. if not one bit,
then why not make headers, in ascii ?

the problem is
that it adds unwarranted complexity. so now we have more bits, yay. do
they do anything ? notrly. well if you're going
to hire a fortune
teller, hire
the cheapest not
the best. but
this aside -
the problem you raise is very much a problem, and altogether
this
thing will have
to be worked on moar.
mircea_popescu: be
they what
they may be,
they are what
they are and so it goes.
mircea_popescu: the
totality of
thoughts
thought is a legitimate application of pen
to paper, is it not.

This is a Bad
Thing" <<
the
thing with
this asciilifeform is
that on
the surface i feel very moved by
the notion ; but upon examination it seems
to devolve into a sort of enumerating badness ?
assbot: Logged on 18-03-2016 19:59:21; asciilifeform: my internal mp also says 'just because you have a pistol which knows how
to fire bullets at people you don't like, it does not follow
that
there must also exist an antipistol which sucks out bullets from people you like'
assbot: Logged on 18-03-2016 19:34:15; asciilifeform: in particular, i believe
that satoshi's
turd is an abomination and is barely fit for any use at all, and ought
to be discarded as soon as a politically reliable alternative exists - but
there is no way
to infer
this from what patches i have signed.

☝︎☟︎ assbot: Logged on 18-03-2016 18:23:36; *: asciilifeform prepares a bucket for mircea_popescu
to barf into after he reads
the 'algebra' piece.

☟︎ mircea_popescu: it won't make specific forms of derpage
tolerable going forward, also, but
there was no provision
to protect
that stuff anyway.

http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=18-03-2016#1435731 < not at all - i
think
there is some merit in
the argument in
the sense
that bitbet will hardly survive
the upset its going
through now (which is actually devaluating
the asset
to be liquidated)
assbot: Logged on 18-03-2016 17:43:18; phf: other signing method is a microdot pattern, you know,
to cover all
the bases
mircea_popescu: i already am feeling
the blessings of engineeringshnu upon my humble abode.
mircea_popescu: i've just finished rewiring
this set of xmas lights
to work in parallel
trinque: asciilifeform │ he also says 'intellectualizing is evil, fuck a
turnip
today for good health' << l0l
mod6: interesting
thought
tho
PeterL: one byte commentary is easier
to package with payload, rather
than
trying
to reference commentary elsewhere
