mircea_popescu: diana_coman cluj suprareal cca late 1990s had exactly ONE girl in
the set of 8 people
that were accepted on merit, and about 14 in
the set of 17 others who were accepted
to pad
the class so it may be made.
ben_vulpes: mircea_popescu: and you know
that public school in america is just daycare.
mircea_popescu: PeterL "nobody kept in
touch with
the smart women
they met so
they have no proposals
to make so
the list is mostly guys"
mircea_popescu: ben_vulpes you know for everyone from europe public school = best school. private school is where people with money send
their retarded offspring
to keep up
the pretense.
ben_vulpes: i have a completely unbacked
theory
that
the further you go down
the american income/class ladder
the more girls you'll get in
those classes.
PeterL: meh, i don't
talk with any of
them,
that was like 15 years ago
phf: shinohai: Can any asseteers
tell me if
this is a worthy SSD? << i've been using it's precursor, 250gb 830, as my primary drive for
three years now, have nothing
to complain about it. unless samsung fucked something up, an 850 will be my next purchase
diana_coman: ^^^ ftr I can't remember ANY setting later
than nursery in which I wasn't in a setup of at least 1:2 female:male
mircea_popescu: also, i
thought kakobrekla was a girl ? no ? because -a ?
mircea_popescu: either
that or more women
that went
to school for purposes other
than
talking about boys.
PeterL: only one female on
the lordship list? you guys are so sexist! Clearly we need some affirmative action around here?
ben_vulpes is open
to being sold, grew up in america after all
ben_vulpes: legendarily long lead
time for feedback here, just getting ahead of
things.
mircea_popescu: in any case we're early here,
two months
til april, and
then all of april.
diana_coman: I am honoured
to be proposed
to
the list; I might add
that I am quite likely
to be of
the silent
type indeed at least for
the
time being
mircea_popescu: and if one isn't a lord... well... why would
they want it ? fucking milstone around one's neck of
the first degree.
mircea_popescu: my doctrine is
that it's
the simplest
thing in
the world for a lord
to get his seat.
ben_vulpes: ;;later
tell artifexd yo it's going
to be much harder
to get back in
than it will be
to preserve your seat now
gribble: artifexd was last seen in #bitcoin-assets 41 weeks, 5 days, 16 hours, 46 minutes, and 35 seconds ago: <artifexd> I'm comfortable calling it a review. Not just of what it is but what it was and how it got
to where it is.
mircea_popescu: then he came back
there was a bit of
trouble, but nothing we can't handle.
mircea_popescu: hey, when richard was gone
to
the crusades forever
they put john on
the
throne.
ben_vulpes: more
to
the point with artifexd he bit off gossipd, claimed progress, and
then vanished.
mircea_popescu: understand,
this "different files" is flimsy as fuck. for all you know
the "same files" are not really
the same at all -
their content changed.
mircea_popescu: you necessarily and always specify
the order when you write
the patch, because it includes
the hash of
the
thing you want it applied on
top of.
PeterL: so even if different files are affected, you have
to specify
the order?
mircea_popescu: thye chain you see, X is applied on "that patch with hash h1", ie G ; and in
turn Y is applied
to "that patch with hash h2", ie X
PeterL: well,
trying
to decide order of patches
to apply, if
they affect different files
then it does not matter which order you use?
mircea_popescu: well i have nfi what you mean by "same level", but
to my eyes and from graph
theory considerations it would mean "patches applied atop
the same one patch"
PeterL: if
they affect different files,
they could be
the same level?
mircea_popescu: PeterL> or am I
totally confused? << a patch can only be safely applied
to its antecedent.
two patches at
the same level CAN NOT be both applied by definition.
☟︎ mircea_popescu: you can
thank ben_vulpes for making work for everyone!

http://trilema.com/2016/the-lordship-list-third-year/ PeterL: so we should not need
to alphasort anything?
ben_vulpes: draw
the graph, it's a useful exercise.
PeterL: or am I
totally confused?
PeterL: meh, I guess
thinking about it, I guess if
two patches are of equal level,
then it does not matter which order
they get applied?
PeterL: I guess alphasorting is a cheap way
to ensure consistency between presses of equal sets?
ben_vulpes: if instead a v implementation presses each patch in
the flow...
ben_vulpes: from
the desired head
to press, it doesn't.
ben_vulpes: if a v implementation recurses up from
the pressed head, it doesn't.
PeterL: but why should
the alphasort matter?
ben_vulpes: PeterL:
the list of patches gets alphasorted before
toposorting in all implementations i've seen
to date.
☟︎ PeterL: they should be in
the order
they get applied?
ben_vulpes: this alphabetical sorting of patches in v flow grates on me for some reason i'm struggling
to articulate.
mircea_popescu: ;;google
the mailman always petes
the door
three
times
mircea_popescu: i never expected him
to not show up under his PROFESSIONAL names...
☟︎ ben_vulpes: doesn't
that get you on some kind of vile criminal list in canada?
☟︎ gribble: pete_dushenski was last seen in #bitcoin-assets 5 days, 13 hours, 38 minutes, and 24 seconds ago: <pete_dushenski> off
to pickup new specs. if i'm not back
this evening, i'll be around under 'pete_d_out' over
the coming days. cheers!
ben_vulpes: ahaha mircea_popescu yours is funny
too!
ben_vulpes: in other news we call
this occasionally-accumulating infant smegma "neck cheese" because mothers milk comes back up as ricotta
mircea_popescu: in other news of no particular interest, long sloppy blowjob
the night before means you'll be picking red hairs out of your crotch for
the rest of
the morning.
mircea_popescu: as you can see my dear vulpes, it's not
that we're BORN any better. it's
that we've been doing something about it since
then.
ben_vulpes: paging mod6
to
the preactor control room
mircea_popescu: it's just
the plastic wanna-be crap, has nothing
to do with bitcoin
mircea_popescu: eh, wipe all licenses.
tmsr does not honor agreements between parties not attached
to
the wot.
assbot: Logged on 09-02-2016 13:21:54; asciilifeform:
this is sold by... one vendor.
ben_vulpes: who is john w. wilkinson and is
there any reason
to keep his json spirit license around?
mircea_popescu: it's all fine and dandy, makes up
the very characteristic weird we've come
to love under
the label alf, but do not expect it's a consideration (or even meaningful) for anyone else.
☟︎ mircea_popescu:
http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=09-02-2016#1400259 <<< i'm with ben and
the whole rest of
the world on
this. you display a very entrenched form of stockholm syndrome. not just here - but in all points of confort. can't move out of dc because it's
the only swamp in
the world with lid suspension and hotplugging something or
the other, gotta use apple because insanoarcana, etc.
☝︎ mircea_popescu: which i suspect is
the proximate reason no blame attached
to buzzdave
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo yeh. course, fpga
thing even
then counted more like amateur hour
than anything.
mircea_popescu: anyway,
the winds have pointedly
turned against apple.
the
time when
they did
that "we'll brick your device if you used other parts in it"
thing i'd arbitrarily pick as
the jumping
the shark moment. but in any case : apple is for
the next decade a company
to sell, not
to hold and CERTAINLY not
to buy.
☟︎ BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: I believe so. Isn't he
the one who did
the FPGA
thing with BuzzDave and professed
to be doing
the ASIC
thing?
assbot: Logged on 09-02-2016 12:14:06; BingoBoingo: Blame for
the failure went
to
the venture's major partner
Tom
mircea_popescu: oddly enough,
the io constraindness of
the bitcoin makes for better ssd fit.
mircea_popescu: write endurance is notably not a major point of interest for bitcoin node ssds.
the way it works is
that most of
the files are stable forever, and you have a hot end you keep adding
to.
this is a match made in heaven for ssds,
they can use
the spare capacity
to compensate for your rewrites and once done it's done.
BingoBoingo: shinohai:
The price amazon is selling
the evo for is about
the price amazon is selling
the pro for.
The difference between
the
two is apparently pro gets bigger warranty, hotter running controller (potential point of failure) and derp about longer write endurance
mircea_popescu: how about you vouch for your spanish. pick any of my articles
that discuss argentina and show me!
shinohai: mircea_popescu: nope I'll do my best
to undercut anyone. pussyfreak can vouch for my Spanish if he comes back, being from Spain and all lol.
BingoBoingo: A bit over, but as cheap as I've seen
them
shinohai: Will do. Also anyone needing me for menial
tasks such as proofreading or Spanish-to-English
translations contact me plox
mircea_popescu: shinohai for
that reason! 500gb is enough for now. 1tb in a few years, will be cheaper.
