kuzetsa: feel free
to downrate me or whatever on
the way out
danielpbarron: the losers can complain about
this.. and maybe
they'll catch a beating for it
danielpbarron: the legitimacy is enforced by
the better by virtue of him being better
kuzetsa: that's not a
thing I believe in
kuzetsa: killing someone because
they didn't do as
they were
told is pretty dickish
kuzetsa: Genesis 19:26 ~~ But Lot's wife looked back. When she did, she became a pillar made out of salt. <<< like I said, inconsiderate, I can't hardly undersatand
the idea of natural disaster being an act of god, and for something as innocent as looking over your shoulder
to be cause for death is p much overkill no matter who you are (deity or otherwise)
danielpbarron: Job 11:11 For He knows deceitful men; He sees wickedness also. Will He not
then consider it?
kuzetsa: IDK,
the poetry sections of scripture aren't easy for me
to
take literal in a serious way
kuzetsa: "Blessing of Moses"
too allright
danielpbarron: Exodus 33:13 Now
therefore, I pray, if I have found grace in Your sight, show me now Your way,
that I may know You and
that I may find grace in Your sight. And consider
that
this nation is Your people."
kuzetsa: ah ok,
that's out of "The Song of Moses"
danielpbarron: Deuteronomy 32:39 'Now see
that I, even I, am He, And
there is no God besides Me; I kill and I make alive; I wound and I heal; Nor is
there any who can deliver from My hand.
kuzetsa: I don't personally believe gods
to be
that jerk-ish
kuzetsa: well
that's awfully inconsiderate of a deity
kuzetsa: "always carry a shovel and be sure
to use it
to bury your poo so god doesn't step in it" <<< any
translation you want is fine,
that's my own paraphrase (I compared several
translations for
this particular passage, and
the meaning is always
the same)
kuzetsa: lack of a modern sense of sanitation wasn't
the cause, it was god being angry
kuzetsa: if
taken literally
though, god was angry and made you sick
kuzetsa: Deuteronomy 23:14-15 ~~ always carry a shovel and be sure
to use it
to bury your poo so god doesn't step in it ... if
taken literally, I'm
thinking at best
the understanding of germ
theory wasn't going
to be around for over a
thousand years so
the beliefs were genuinely held,
though not literal
danielpbarron: you got any money on sanders
to win?
there's a bitbet!
kuzetsa: literalist or do you understand some of it
to be metaphorical / superstitious in nature?
danielpbarron: yeah and I'm
the only one in here
that believes
the entire Bible
danielpbarron: well I knew who he was
too, but I guess
that's because I'm in close proximity
to Vermont
kuzetsa: my political views are frowned upon in here by a few people (at
times, loudly)
kuzetsa: danielpbarron: one of
the main reasons I didn't seek
to figure out why I could no longer !up is because I'm legitimately a left-wing democratic socialist and knew who bernie sanders was before he announced
the POTUS run
kuzetsa: well you highlighted me several
times, and even
though
the content wasn't anything I immediately understood and related
to,
the friendly
tone seemed welcoming and I appreciate
that --
the impression stuck, if nothing else :D
adlai goes back
to spam
that costs money
adlai: i'm just
throwing links around and hoping something will stick.
danielpbarron: oh wait, who runs double-hash-bitcoin ? I assume
this is different from
the one gmaxwell or whoever banned me from
phf:
http://log.bitcoin-assets.com//?date=29-08-2015#1255346 << not sure if you noticed
that 4.4bsd vi had lisp mode (and nothing else language wise). man page claims
that some indent commands would actually do proper lisp indentation. sometimes i'd like
to
track it down and see what exactly
the had
there..
☝︎ kuzetsa: adlai: I don't disagree, but I don't understand your point either -- idioms aren't my
thing :(
kuzetsa: in ##bitcoin
the best conversation I recall lately ... nothing memorable actually
adlai: kuzetsa: eventually jargon can wag its dog, shaping
the mother
tongue more strongly
than
the other way around
kuzetsa: *just lurking in
there, mostly -- [...]
kuzetsa: danielpbarron: lurking in
the mostly -- more conversations happen in ##bitcoin in my case because I prefer not
to have non-otc / non-trading
talks in -otc
adlai: some professions employ jargon, and
there's a reason for it
kuzetsa: adlai: well I read
that (skimmed) and couldn't glean any useful heuristic or philisophical insight
adlai wonders whether we'll ever hear back from DrWoT,
the PhD-to-be...
there is definitely some spinnable bullshit in
the wot fork
adlai: that's nice of him
to do!
kuzetsa: I just stopped in 'cause danielpbarron noticed I hadn't been around and
took
the
time
to figure out what happened
kuzetsa: I'm content
to remain ignorant
adlai: obviously
this doesn't have
to be read in one sitting.
adlai: kuzetsa: don't
take
this
the wrong way, but you may find
the logs interesting for a month or six of logged-time. will save you lots of questions, such as "why all
the parens" or "did you really need
to write your own darcs"
assbot: Logged on 17-02-2016 21:07:31; asciilifeform: hey i specialize in uselessly predicting crapocalypses years before
they happen.
kuzetsa: and
then do :q
to get out after you're done looking at whatever
that's
the only command I ever bothered
to learn
kuzetsa: in
the vi/emacs debate, I'm in
the nano/scintilla camp being clueless about
the substance of
the argument
adlai: emacs isn't necessary, although it helps
to have an editor
that understands your AST
assbot: Logged on 27-01-2016 02:52:19; mircea_popescu: what happened is - we used gribble wot.
then gribbe was offline unexpectedly, and its maintainer wasn't
talking. he was
traveling at
the
time, as we later found out. nevertheless, for
those few days
the situation was indistinguishable from an attack and so we made a replacement.
kuzetsa: according
to
the link you posted (btcalpha)
there's zero connecting ratings
kuzetsa: but
the other person (for
the 2nd point required) was you?
kuzetsa: the nanotube rating was still
there, unfettered or something
kuzetsa: well yeah, but I
think maybe originally I was only able
to self-up because of nanotube having uprated me
kuzetsa: <an op or
two who uprated me> ~ specifically I mean #bitcoin-otc and #bitcoin ones... at some point I
think people in here had a falling out with
them
kuzetsa: and I
think maybe an op or
two who uprated me ended up neg-rated by enough people who were 1-degree coupled
to assbot or ... IDK really
kuzetsa: my coupling
to assbot was always 2nd level before
today
kuzetsa: danielpbarron: ok
to answer your question legit like... uh...
assbot: Successfully added a rating of 1 for kuzetsa with note: for
the voice
adlai: beautiful red hot economy, until
the guy with
the pickup
truck shows up (existing bike rental companies do
this backwards)
adlai waits for
the sharing economy (bike rental)
to make sweet decentralized love with
the service economy (relocating
to meet expected demand)... lard and lazy pay swole
to pump
phf: there are parts by
the waterfront where on weekends you can see an assortment of underclasses and weirdos. mexicans fishing, blacks riding dirt bikes, white
trash drinking. kind of cool, i'll
take
that anytime over
the overdeveloped DC
☟︎ phf: i agree
though, i like
that philly is a no mans land, since
there's no developers or Control or particularly strong presence of usg.
phf: on
the other hand you have fishtown and north, forther industrial centers (long out of business companies
that used
to make ship and locomotive engines and such) are now either ghettos or white
trash areas.
pete_dushenski: phf:
trust me when i saw
that it's even worse when
the arivistes come rampaging
through
town in a flurry of nownownow-ism and
tear
the whole lot down right before your eyes.
phf: on one hand you have areas past art museum, which are basically abandoned lands of early american aristocracy. donated
to "the people"
to
take care of, now
they exist as ghetto bordering no mans lands.
pete_dushenski: but with no economic pressure
to
tear down
those monuments in philly,
they're not going anywhere either. and good bones on a city can always find new uses, even if
there are fits and starts between 'ideal' (ie. high cultural) uses.
assbot: Phys. Rev. Lett. 116, 052501 (2016) - Candidate Resonant
Tetraneutron State Populated by
the $^{4}\mathrm{He}(^{8}\mathrm{He},^{8}\mathrm{Be})$ Reaction ... (

pete_dushenski: of
the dozen or
two us cities i've visited in
the last decade, i couldn't agree more.
phf: i
think philadelphia as a whole is a particularly painful monument
to america's past.
☟︎ pete_dushenski: really,
this is every bit as
tragic as swapping sons before eating
them.
pete_dushenski: phf: from
the pics at least it looks rather beautiful. reminds me
that
the us once had great people building great monuments
to culture and success. it's easy
to forget
that on
the detritus-filled web.
BingoBoingo: You need
the study cages
to have graduate studies
phf: i used
to live couple of blocks away from frank furness library at upenn
adlai used
this library primarily as dvd rental, preparing his blog's filler material a decade in advance
pete_dushenski: which, at
this point, have exactly
the same demo, so i can see it
BingoBoingo: Also real libraries put
the desks in cages
pete_dushenski: BingoBoingo: no such
thing as waste in a personal library
