mircea_popescu: commentary is the heart of the european intellectual tradition ; originally it seemed like such a step forward to have this commentary sorted by subject rather than, in the old style, by author. and the technology allowing it seemed genuinely revolutionary for this reason, exactly in the vein of plumbing.
mircea_popescu: spyked, the first portion is interesting imo. why shouldn't anyone be able to live comments ? something in the vein of "if every tree was carved any time anyone on the trail thought about some girl, we'd have toothpick forests" ?
☟︎ mircea_popescu: yes. his intuition is correct, eventually will grow into gns.
mircea_popescu: in other news, toasted almonds, black chocolate and milk coffee ftw.
mircea_popescu: anyway, item is going to be delivered below the original estimate you had anyway, from what i gather.
mircea_popescu: how the fuck to these assholes manage to reconstruct stalinism without stalin!
mircea_popescu: whole fucking pile also incidentally providing a vehicle for that moron dancer girl what's her name, to pretend like a name can possibly be wasted on her dumb ass. "condition of women" holy shit, she's a poor immigrant dancer already.
mircea_popescu: it could happen to you too! and if it didn't, it's because you're nopt as cool as hebe shit-fleck, doing inept "check me out, mom, i have sex fantasies with harvey keitel" monologues in laundromats.
mircea_popescu: so he makes this piece of shit thing, "gigli" right ? and it's "mobster" (because he's cool, right ? like, cool kid ?) meets retard and discovers how cool retards really are!!!
mircea_popescu: in other items of little interest, holy shit ben affleck is a repugnant, fucktarded enemy of human civilisation.
mircea_popescu: anyway, likely problem is trinque's blog doesn't neatly redirect changed names ?
mircea_popescu: though it turns out it was during the time of qntra forced silence
mircea_popescu: Despite criticism that the legislation risks curtailing civil liberties because it codifies measures such as stop and seizure and house arrest without judicial review, most of the provisions are expected to stand."
mircea_popescu: Some of the emergency measures, notably beefed up police powers, are to be made permanent under a bill that has been approved by the lower house of parliament, the National Assembly.
mircea_popescu: "The incident came as France remains under a state of emergency declared after the 2015 Paris terrorist attacks.
mircea_popescu: so reading historical qntra or should i say hysterical qntra is quite the fucking riot, but, BingoBoingo or anyone, where\s the article about the moronic french "agents" that texted to their "jihadist" suspect ?
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform, we didn't sell/pay anything this month, did we ?
mircea_popescu: it's symptom of "every biosack has will to live" nonsense. what, they're all gonna be entrepreneurs. pshaw.
mircea_popescu: what, i should write the same god damned thing every six months, like those idiots doing "cms solutions" for "Web development" "tech firms" ?
mircea_popescu: from experience, the more solid code delivered, the more demand for further solid code.
mircea_popescu: man... this is like proposing fucking a slavegirl well is a bad idea, what'll she need you for if you do.
mircea_popescu: "you fuck it, it only gets heavy, and you still not hit largest side of barn"
mircea_popescu: or to quote the unknown russian, "you have disease of capitalist"
mircea_popescu: the same idiots always enhance cunt the same god damned way, a good dose of the clap.
mircea_popescu: and i don't believe www is dead tech. it may need some changes, but as such, the convenience is there, girls reading logs on gym exercise machine mounted tablets.
mircea_popescu: i'm just saying, it's not ~just~ mp-wp that's an eyesore here. in truth it's our whole relationship to the www that's at issue.
☟︎ mircea_popescu: and we don't even have a formally declared tmsr-html spec.
mircea_popescu: and here we're looking at a html pre-processor scripting lang
mircea_popescu: there's no such thing as a proper scripting lang in general, though. that's why it even is ~a~ scripting lang, because it's by the task
mircea_popescu: and if it is, then what's wrong with php, and delineated specifically. or what, we're gonna use lua ?
mircea_popescu: the other problem still remains : if it is not republican doctrine to have a scriptable webatron with a separable but not separate dbsystem, then ~what is it~.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform, in theory this is a theory, but in practice his comments are still weird looking.
mircea_popescu: anyway, there's also the 2nd order effect, whereby by interacting with heretics you find out stuff like "hey, i have a memory leak"
mircea_popescu: to be clear, i'm not for a second disputing that such piles of lines of "code" are a scandal and an outrage before god. but i wish to know what we're to do.
mircea_popescu: considering his blog still doesn't win any beauty contests mine participates in.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform, this is quite what i'm saying, a web publishing platform we will want, and phf is in a prime posityion to appreciate the gargantuan task of "make it from prime principles", i think.
mircea_popescu: because it is not directly evident to me what portion of the 162k loc (granted -- insane count) is due to the tower of chairs arrangement.
mircea_popescu: will you go as far as to say that writing a general purpose scriptable webatron (apache) and a "separate" (notrly) db system (mysql) is the wrong solution, and one should just write his blog software in c directly ?
mircea_popescu: phf, it also has the advantage that it works, and VERY well. which to my knowledge is not true of any other piece of web software (alf's complaints notwithstanding, phuctor emergent codebase may qualify)
☟︎ mircea_popescu: this'd be my reasoning. just because you shouldn't doesn't mean you should couldn't.
mircea_popescu: the alternative process (as displayed by some spiders etc) is very limited.
mircea_popescu: first step of any digestion is, gotta stuff it in the gullet. enzymes afterwards.
mircea_popescu: how are they to be digested, if we deliberately make the tools we use unable to grab them ?
mircea_popescu: and we do have some such blobs in the process, so far.
mircea_popescu: see, it rests in between "here's a blob of strange, 100mb long" and "here's a sane genesis"
mircea_popescu: is the idea here that code should never be that long, basically ?
mircea_popescu: phf, part of the reason i keep having things sit on other things is to find out what the fuck we need to do.
mircea_popescu: <lobbesbot> --- end of auction list, 372.264mn total bids ---
mircea_popescu: and i have this friend who's been working on making a portable computer
