mircea_popescu: http://37.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m5235pmE481qlne6uo1_500.jpg << simple test to discern the pros from the amateurs : lordosis behaviour. inward curved butt ? someone's wife. outward curved butt ? party girl.

assbot: Test de cultura vizuala 16 pe Trilema - Un blog de Mircea Popescu.
mircea_popescu: http://trilema.com/2011/test-de-cultura-vizuala-16/ btw.
BingoBoingo: This particular idiot tested this with 12 gauge again in a worn test.
mthreat: mircea_popescu: if I can make it, i'll be there. Ya, just working in the afternoons right now, for a month test
mircea_popescu: "A woman's test is material. A man's test is a woman...if a man could fuck in a cardboard box, he wouldn't buy a house." - Rabbi Dave Chappelle.
BingoBoingo: justusranvier: There are many reasons why homeopathy is a scam, mircea_popescu: but yeah, i suppose it's a good proof they don't grok objective reality. << Homeopaths make their cheddar on conditions that test well against placebo
ben_vulpes: <The20YearIRCloud> I hope that this test proves conservation of motion in space wrong << i think you mean conservation of momentum
The20YearIRCloud: I hope that this test proves conservation of motion in space wrong and they can produce drives with the thrust possibilities as they believe are possible
The20YearIRCloud: Which either disproves the test or disproves newton's law of motion
thickasthieves: Most impressively, the NASA team specifically built two Cannae Drives, including one that was designed to fail, and instead it worked. As the scientists write in their paper abstract: "thrust was observed on both test articles, even though one of the test articles was designed with the expectation that it would not produce thrust." That suggests the drive is "producing a force that is
BingoBoingo: Nah it is a test of memory
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: Maybe see if a neighbor girl can offer an explanation as a test?
jurov: test it on TaT
RooK314: True. Maybe I will do a blind taste test with a couple of girls.
kuzetsa: ThickAsThieves: since you're niot likely to guess what that sound is for --- it's a bunch of frequencies which can be played on nearly any speaker, headphones, etc. and be used to demonstrate what the frequency response is for that particular equipment... except it's quick (VERY fast) compared to an audio test CD or something (doesn't require multiple seconds)
DreadKnight: erm was close to typing "nigger black nigeria" for another test run
DreadKnight: DeusCerehling, test
mircea_popescu: "a test ?!?!" wtf happened to omfg on your knees bitch bring the birch switch this ain't washing.
assbot: Trojan Condoms -The Test - YouTube
DreadKnight: they're kinda like branches of software, so a bit of experimentation is good to be done in "test areas" rather than on the popular blockchain everybody is using
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: in 2010 i concocted a variant of the test that could be carried out for approx. 50k USD, from scratch. schwartz answered that, in his estimation, the test would work to spec, but results would not be accepted by the field unless carried out on one of the two existing eotvos balances. one - adelberger's, one - chicom. ☟︎☟︎
asciilifeform: (short version: adelberger tested all variants of crud, including left- and right-handed machine screws (!) and gleefully pronounced - no parity violation. refused under any pretext to test schwartz and petitjean's 'chiralane' molecule.)
asciilifeform: good litmus test - anyone involved with 'strings'

asciilifeform: decimation: what little (semi) automation i have in mind, is simply to eliminate problems with prototype assembly quality (vs design) from consideration during test.
DreadKnight: mircea_popescu, I'm a jack of all trades, designed the project, I manage the thing, make abilities, made the website, look for contributors, code, sketch, test it with fans, whatever it needs to be done; I'm working with quite a bit of people, constantly looking for fresh blood, that's the beauty of being open source
ThickAsThieves: <+dub> i've a perverse need to test newphones waterproofyness /// maybe you should go to running of the bulls

assbot: [MPEX] [Q.TEST] 987654321 @ 1.23456789 = 1219326311.1264 BTC [+]
benkay: just addressing your mischaracterization of me. just because i have opinions about mpex agent's test suite doesn't mean i don't do manual data munging (or have people do it) when appropriate.
dub: I like how you can gauge just how stupid your average HR/HS peon is by the time they expect it to take for the test
dub: you're missing the point, make your dudes prove the test suite
decimation: if only you could harness bacteria to grow onto circuit-board test points...
decimation: although, the first practical test of any source of random numbers is to get a large quantity of them and see if there are any repeats

mircea_popescu: ok so re mpex : the best news, really. the whole shebang is deployed and actually works, as best as anyone can determine. running a final swathe of test-all-the-edge-cases which i expect to pass 100%. bar some improbable unforeseenness, mpex should be back this weekend.
asciilifeform: decimation: to make this clearer: the digits of 'pi' pass every test of 'entropic quality' you can think of. except, naturally, the fact of them being the digits of 'pi.'
mircea_popescu: No better test to see text mining fail, it seems, than applying it to irc logs on bitcoin-assets: a careful calibration of state of the art tools yielded only a clear case of “by the time you figure out and implement everything needed to obtain even reasonable results, you surely did the “automated” work at least 5 times if not 10, if not 100.”
kakobrekla: i dont know and i cant test it now. due to lack of space its not in operational mode.
decimation: re: rolling dice to generate RSA keypair << this is not straightforward at all, and in general you are going to end up seeding some kind of RNG to produce your primes to test
Mats_cd03: cant protect any x64 browsers...qa didnt even test it
asciilifeform: Rassah: 'we are physically reading it' << how do you know this? that is to say, if both the reader and the sram are on one ic die, how can you substitute, e.g. a fake sram that never flips bits, to test ?
ThickAsThieves: i suppose you could chemically test it
pankkake: I should test it before :p
Azelphur: oh, that's easy to test
benkay: well i've worked through these provisioners from top to bottom, and now it's time to test them all against some freshness
mircea_popescu: mike_c so far. you never know with these things until you get to test them

mircea_popescu: ThickAsThieves: chetty think of it this way, do you believe that mp thinks women should literally be raped? I assume you'd answer No. In that case, what is he really trying to say? Or, at worst, what point can be extracted from the trolling. This is the nature of most mp rants and provocation. Each a test of your filters. << y u trolling me1
pankkake: "a test of your filters". eh, I guess this is one of the best descriptions so far

mircea_popescu: thing else? A few new medicines have come out, though none of them appeared on the test either. There's money to be made on the west coast using giant magnets, (fortunately) also not on the test. So? Was the ABPN worried I'd forget how to use MAOIs? I'm never going to use them, I have enough problems monitoring Xanax. The astonishing truth is that despite millions of dollars and hundreds of academic careers psychiatry
mircea_popescu: The logic of a 10 year MOC exam is to keep us up to date, so it's fair to ask: what in psychiatry has changed in ten years, what are the major advances? Depakote was discovered to be the default maintenance mood stabilizer despite no evidence supporting this, but that fell into disuse at a time oddly coinciding with its patent expiration, which is suspicious but I'm no epidemiologist. Anyway, it wasn't on the test. Any

asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: i'd love to see how these folks intend to paint india without triggering nuke 'test'
mircea_popescu: ThickAsThieves probably. turing test mostly verifies predictability.
ThickAsThieves: i wonder if vexual could pass a turing test
benkay: test it on a babe...
moiety: not at all mircea_popescu it's actually a good test for me, tells me how someone would be to work with. if the argument is articulate, it makes a huge difference right?
