Framedragger: form on archive.is is simple PeterL, just need to get a "sekrit id" to then include it in the POST. also don't assume that all post requests succeed / archive.is gives the same answer, as shinohai noted
mircea_popescu: wouldn't say anything.
mircea_popescu: adding a !#wws mircea_popescu for "what would mircea_popescu say" can't hurt anything
Framedragger: mircea_popescu: understand and agree. it's worth to have it be pointed out in the comments if only so that someone doesn't start assuming that the spec implicitly provides guarantees of uniqueness etc. and good to have a picture of the madness and lack of guarantee anyway. but i guess you're right
Framedragger: remains to be seen if those are actually accurate. i recall wanting to obtain ns-level timing in a small no-bullshit C program, wasn't able to, reliably. could've been my failure, tho. really wouldn't trust those values
Framedragger: i don't know. (asciilifeform?) but look, in http://stackoverflow.com/questions/2607263/how-precise-is-the-internal-clock-of-a-modern-pc there are hints of madness and inconsistency. "returns clock count" doesn't seem to be it.
Framedragger: why is Vexual banned - http://btcbase.org/log/2016-08-16#1522329 - why no bard. you know tor irc channels used to have this skruffy character who connected from some small shanty town in deep russia and spoke broken english. thing is, he found and reported on a ton of deeper bugs, i mean like delicate race conditions that don't normally appear and shit. he claimed to have used win98 and complained all the time that tor broke on win98 ☝︎☟︎
asciilifeform: don't be shy, say hello.
mircea_popescu: wut is t-a again ?
a111: Logged on 2016-03-31 01:55 phf: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i6q4n5TQnpA via jwz, an old interview with klf after they burned million pounds, for the amusement of #t-a
asciilifeform: i can't wait for the massive rocket 'new mbwebwebwe', which will be named for the first NIGERIAN to 419 around the earth.
a111: Logged on 2016-09-12 20:15 mircea_popescu: that this hasn't deteriorated into an endless battle of injunctions is even more shocking. bejewels, not even the lawyers work in the us anymore ?
asciilifeform: it isn't what it's for.
asciilifeform: don't build nuke to brag on youtube.
trinque: recoil doesn't look that bad
phf: incidently before fake-russian did that quadcopter video with guns, there ~was~ a youtube video of a shotgun mounted on a uav, which resulted in the poster being arrested. i can't find it though, was it in logs?
asciilifeform: it isn't bewildering.
mircea_popescu: and this is rather what a specification is. doesn;t allow you to produce a human ; but it allows me to reject some of your "human" products as not-human.
mircea_popescu: except i didn't.
mircea_popescu: the part where you can spec things that don't actually fit in head. for instance, i can specify "a good fuck", or "an acceptably behaved slut" or "a boring housewife"
asciilifeform: can offer item that doesn't fit + is sanely speccable ?
asciilifeform: let's revisit thread - what part of 'fits in head, and speccable, or doesn't-fit-in-head, unspeccable, t. non d.' does mircea_popescu disagree with ?
mircea_popescu: i can say "the population of argentina has a total sum IQ of 170 over ~40mn people" ; this may be so or not, whatever ; interpreted by the reader. you can ask "o yeah, if you can build things then how would you go about building folded hypercube ?". to which i won't answer. for the reason. are they both caricatures ? maybe so. does that do anything ?
mircea_popescu: i wasn't asking you a question with it!
mircea_popescu: no, but because the question is based on a presumption that doesn't hold in practice.
asciilifeform: 'i won't answer because there is not an answer that doesn't rupture my argument' lolk.
mircea_popescu: http://log.mkj.lt/trilema/20160913/#396 << if you don't do it one way, it'll have to be done the other way. either way - it'll be the other way from the other way. what can you do.
mircea_popescu: "i stand by my assertion that x" isn't terribly helpful.
asciilifeform: at any rate, i stand by my assertion that a synchronous (if you don't know what this means, look it up) carrier is unsuitable for gossipd.
mircea_popescu: doesn't matter which, pick one.
scriba: Logged on 2016-09-13: [17:16:41] <ben_vulpes> http://discuss.ardupilot.org/t/ardupilot-and-dronecode/11295 << "Due to their overwhelming desire to be able to make a proprietary autopilot stack the Platinum members staged what can only be called a coup. They removed all top level open source projects from DroneCode, leaving only their own nominees in the Technical Steering Committee."
Framedragger: (in truth, can't compare to *actually great* moving long shots etc, not in the same league at all, admittedly)
asciilifeform: if it doesn't , it is a dire problem
asciilifeform: Framedragger: i won't touch a tcp 'gossipd'
Framedragger: asciilifeform: answer't answer't
shinohai: im happy it didn't this time
Framedragger: (deedbot not in room, and so bots don't self-voice) ☟︎
Framedragger: http://trilema.com/2016/gossipd-design-document/#comment-119079 s/DZ/SD/ i don't know why i wrote DZ, very unclear freudian slip
ben_vulpes: asciilifeform: i don't think the big-endianness is even in the protocol is it?
asciilifeform: at least i don't.
asciilifeform: and it isn't as if we did not go to highschool and did not learn how an ODE is solved.
asciilifeform: i'd say yes. but ask mircea_popescu when he wakes up, iirc he doesn't even like the idea of a scoopbot
ben_vulpes: http://discuss.ardupilot.org/t/ardupilot-and-dronecode/11295 << "Due to their overwhelming desire to be able to make a proprietary autopilot stack the Platinum members staged what can only be called a coup. They removed all top level open source projects from DroneCode, leaving only their own nominees in the Technical Steering Committee."
asciilifeform: sahara ain't getting smaller, aral sea - wetter.
mircea_popescu: nah. listen, the way these "spanish dominions" worked was that the spanish kind simple claimed the land. there wasn't a 1 spanyard per billion acres.
mircea_popescu: but argentina is mostly built out of the italians that couldn't find us army tit to suck in europe. ie, the rejects of rejects, it's dubious italians are people at all.
mircea_popescu: these weren't ever people.
mircea_popescu: if carrots become scarce, rabbit doesn't start a carrot farm.
mircea_popescu: incidentally, i suspect this is the whole recipe of south amercan socialism : "we're just as much a bunch of idiot subhuman iron age farmers ; unlike lenin we won't fuck with proletkult"
mircea_popescu: eh, the soviets looked good in the 50s/60s only, and strictly because the old austro-hungarian empire was ground to dust by hovitzer fire, literally, and france/low countries etc had been bombed pretty badly. so west europe starved which it hadn't done for 3 centuries while russia starved which it had done each other decade.
asciilifeform: also won't notice that papier-mache.
mircea_popescu: "i think the machine gun works by stabbing its victims ; but you won't notice because tits."
mircea_popescu: maybe they're all nude and the media can't report on 'em
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform no, more like "i don't care about what you think enough to not rob the place ; but god damned i care what you may say about my genitalia"
mircea_popescu: pretty sure a) those neurotic ceramic salesgirls don't matter-of-factly expose their cunt as seen there and b) they've no guns.
mircea_popescu: one can't talk to girls because sex ; the other can't talk to girls because sex.
asciilifeform: also the 'thief isn't asking anything' model is quite a bit off. the 'dindus' of bmore are as actively managed and externally fed as the animals in any other zoo. no less so than the white suburban folk. neither sows, nor reaps, etc.
mircea_popescu: usg couldn't care less.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform and you know why, yes ? thief isn't asking anything from usg.
mircea_popescu: i will daresay that if your women can't be trusted in front of enemies you've been wasting your time.
mircea_popescu: of course, now i don't like his idiotic position on women, but this is now on the exact opposite side of before.
BingoBoingo: To the extent honor code exists in my reading of lafond, the lynchpin is Lafond won't give up his wallet to muggers and the people who do have deep failings in their attunement to reality.
mircea_popescu: i sure as fuck am not about to go watch di maggio pitch with him ; nor drink the beer-flavoured-sprite he guzzles. and i'll fuck his woman, without any concern for him ; while he can't fuck mine, because she won't put up with his dumb head. life is so unfair.
asciilifeform: http://btcbase.org/log/2016-09-13#1540907 << it doesn't, strictly speaking, good chunk of it is frag ullage ☝︎
mircea_popescu: or maybe not, anyway, doesn't seem unbounded.
ben_vulpes: i haven't leveled the aws banhammer, so my node's likely collecting all sorts of hilarious crud that yours isn't
asciilifeform: http://btcbase.org/log/2016-09-12#1540772 << am i the only one who habitually #t's on boxes with no www browser ? ☝︎
pete_dushenski: phf: hehe i don't have a bot atm. though by xmas i'll be in better shape to take that on.
phf: pete_dushenski: don't you have a bot running? maybe a way for you to reclaim that lordship ;)
pete_dushenski: it came to me not in a dream but just as i was falling asleep. i didn't write the 'bot directory' idea down because... same reason einstein didn't carry notebook
trinque: then later we're on gossipd and "online" doesn't mean anything
trinque: would if freenode weren't a lying sack of hanno
mircea_popescu: that this hasn't deteriorated into an endless battle of injunctions is even more shocking. bejewels, not even the lawyers work in the us anymore ? ☟︎
mircea_popescu: that this affair hasn't spontaneously degenerated into about 500 different, vaguely connected camps is testament to the sheer and amazing lack of testosterone in that population.
mircea_popescu: we didn't stay anyway, i have a very short tolerance for pompous idiocy these days. but i imagine the whole "ticket to go to desert camp" must be very much the same thing. what, they got chicken wire around the perimeter and watchtowers ?
mircea_popescu: apparently - didn't need id anymoar. dem rules.
trinque: dunno how or if they police it. I don't go.
asciilifeform: it isn't a thing in english quite yet.
mircea_popescu: trinque you mean you can't just drive there ?!
trinque: they don't get to apply the filter of cost and then deny it!
trinque: shouldn't it be free because wealth is bad?
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform at a young enough age though, it easily passes for "age specific idiocy" and you don't notice.
mircea_popescu: anyway, the problem is evidently that the few were afraid of the many ; and the many smelled this and fucked them. wealth isn't actually involved, tis a matter of fear.
mircea_popescu: and this doesn't suggest anything to you ?
asciilifeform: now i gotta ask, would mircea_popescu bust into 'disneyland' to remind the childrenz that there aren't actually any such thing as friendly gigantic mice ?
mircea_popescu: funny - they didn't burn THAT.
mircea_popescu: you don't get to say what the point is once money walks in.
thestringpuller: except that isn't _the point_
mircea_popescu: for the same money they could try to become a cat-dragon or w/e. try with all their might, they still don't get to.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: eh you can club'em over the head, if can be bothered, but they won't quit trying to not care - why would they.
mircea_popescu: "except my wife really doesn't" also.
thestringpuller: mircea_popescu: except in burn land you really don't...
mircea_popescu: poor people don't get to not care i'm rich.
asciilifeform: fwiw it isn't the 'cooked rat' that puts asciilifeform off the fest, but the '9 people in a bathroom'
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: as i understand, the tension comes from burningman having once been a 'poorfag resort' where folks pretend that mircea_popescu doesn't exist, etc.
scriba: Logged on 2016-09-12: [18:31:52] <thestringpuller> 70k people go to burning man and establish camps. a small few who aren't really burners just, SF-folk who wanna do drugs and "party" would buy rvs and stuff
mircea_popescu: http://log.mkj.lt/trilema/20160912/#761 << yeah well tell you what, when i go to http://trilema.com/2016/lxs-ninxs/ i ALSO don't go to eat cooked rats and live with nine other people in a bathroom. i go to enjoy the cheap local cunt while preserving my luxurious lifestyle.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: in case this wasn't obvious from the comment, the 'lighthouse' scheme is a variant of 'd-c', rather than 'sh', but with some of the advantages of the latter.
phf: asciilifeform: well, i don't know the details of "white ocean" camp in question, but it usually involved souped up rv's, a staff of paid employees to do your cooking for you, often direct flight from wherever to black rock city airport, etc.
