mircea_popescu: that stock answer is, join here, build the relationship you seem to imagine you already have, talk after.
mircea_popescu: robwhiz22 i didn't see it. i just have a stock answer to all those that insist to aproach me personally as if we have some sort of a relationship.
mircea_popescu: therer you go asciilifeform. "is mp a psychopath ?!?!?!" "definitely! he aims to destroy our shit!!1"
mircea_popescu: " If you deny people the opportunity to defend something they feel is under threat, however, some people go completely insane with rage and actually believe that you threaten them on purpose and that you willfully seek to destroy something very valuable to them."
mircea_popescu: ce you have nothing to defend, your self-preservation instinct will not activate hitherto unused parts of your brain to come up with reasons and rationalizations for what you have done, you will not be aware that you have been taken for a ride before it is over and you "lost".
mircea_popescu: and get through such experiences. Most people are not willing even to /listen/ to arguments or information that could threaten their comfortable view of their own existence, much less think about it, so when you cannot answer a C programmer's "arguments" that his way of life is just great the way it is, it is a pretty good sign that you let him set the agenda once he realized that his way of life was under threat. Sin
mircea_popescu: Getting C programmers to understand that they cause the computer to do less than minimum is intractable. They would not /use/ C if they understood this point, so if you actually cause them to understand it in the course of a discussion, you will only make them miserable and hate their lives. People are pretty good at detecting that this is a likely outcome of thinking, and it takes conscious effort to brace yourself
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform hate to break it to you but crotch levels vary
mircea_popescu: anyway, please everyone don't read my supersikrit business idea
mircea_popescu: so the morning after her nails are white, and two weeks later it's bleedin' purple
mircea_popescu: they should totally make these nailpolishes to react to whatever fuck hormones chicks have,
mircea_popescu: fluffypony at the rate you're ghoing she's going to be here to cuss us all out in person.
mircea_popescu: you hate girls that are too scatterbrained to buy nailpolish so they end up with hands in different colors ?
mircea_popescu: this obnoxious pretentiousness where "you" have an idea and x has money and you're now equals is like... dream on, you'll be on sex and the city
mircea_popescu: then, maybe, perhaps, possibly, you actually have a name
mircea_popescu: then maybe they give you the great opportunity to give the manother one. also for free.
mircea_popescu: dude get out. you got no money you're giving your entire idea away entirely for free to the people who have money.
mircea_popescu: and i do mean great, not in the sense of "tinker joe thinks this rocks after two beers".
mircea_popescu: fluffypony if you stick around here you'll see great ideas being given away for free multiple times a week
mircea_popescu: nobody notices what the bums do in the holes they inhabit, nobody notices what "ideas" anon ppl "have" etc.
mircea_popescu: moreover, the anonymous enjoys perfect secrecy of their ideas anyway.
mircea_popescu: if you keep pretending like you call the shots i'll simply ignore you.
mircea_popescu: robwhiz22 no, i merely pointed you out to here. i'm still not going to pm with you, and that's not likely to change.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform noob nagum. he thought security theatre was taking too much time in 2000
mircea_popescu: <mike_c> yes, it's not like france where they just take your whole paycheck and give you a few dollars a week for coffee and cigarettes. << zing lmao. what you say nao pankkake ? huh ? huh ?
mircea_popescu: <mike_c> visual inspection of code is a crappy way to test anyway. << it's good for some things, bad for others, not really optional imo
mircea_popescu: jurov the payout must involve truly heroic effort << no, i'm just being blonde most of the time
mircea_popescu: thestringpuller bitbet ain't paying cause it overpaid last month :D
mircea_popescu: doth not exist in any other language. except, of course.... murican.
mircea_popescu: keonne you can always ask teh people after the conference.
mircea_popescu: here, i gave up trying to post the shit in irc, made a blogpost instead.
mircea_popescu: not much. romania changes incredibly fast, it's almost azn.
mircea_popescu: actually, if anyone cares to explore this topic, i've wtf'd my foreign slaves with "filantropica", a romanian movie of the 90s. pretty much a slice of life, could as well be a documentary.
mircea_popescu: which goes back to my original genderless soup comment : they're not better about the problems, they just avoid them more.
mircea_popescu: well, that part can even be set aside. raping babies does not actually cure aids.
mircea_popescu: kinda have my doubts of this weird construct's chances of survival, but we see.
mircea_popescu: well "women" in the traditional sense hardly exist in the newer generation. it's pretty much a genderless soup
mircea_popescu: well most people alive, or historically existing had the same view.
mircea_popescu: just a huge workload for very little pay that prevents a fork.
mircea_popescu: so not exactly a race thing as much as a gender thing ?
mircea_popescu: " IRC may not seem very asynchronous, but it is" << actually, it's ... multisyncronous. pretty much the only mental space that readily comprehends irc flow is the sort that spent a lot of time doing debugger stepping.
mircea_popescu: "I the spirit of #heartbleed is anyone else interested in -assets fantasy baseball on yahoo?"
mircea_popescu: they don't work, but unless we build a huge broom somehow...
mircea_popescu: i would say the same thing explains the longevbity of the thing as explains the longevity of soviet satellites : they're still in orbit.
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo lol. i hope they make a name for it and put it in wikipedia. something like a DAB, or something.
mircea_popescu: this is an implant not an error. at what level in the process the implanting starts and cluelessness takes over is still unclear.
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo funny factoid : the sun fusion is not unlike mining. it could in principle be the case a finite interval goes without any emission.
mircea_popescu: how likely is it that you're really my wife and are currently pregnant with twin bald eagles ?
mircea_popescu: it's larger than the cookie monster, and that thing had the advantage of there only being about 50 computers total.
