mircea_popescu:
as if your don't undertstanding is an extenuating circumstance, that somehow makes anything better, like salt and blowing up the whites.
mircea_popescu: and disciplines of the ass, such
as being a sumo wrestler.
mircea_popescu: there's a major difference between disciplines of the mind, such
as NOT BEING STUPID
Atomicat: lol yeah but MPEX is not
as big
as NYSE.;p
mircea_popescu: Atomicat yeah. but there are brokers, such
as for instance jurov's coinbr.com that are less onerous.
Atomicat: mircea_popescu: "Make sure you include verbiage to reflect that you are aware you will be required to pay 50 BTC
as fees for registering the account, and are prepared to do so. "
mircea_popescu: and ugly
as fuck, but the hottest fuck in paris. at least if you ask the sluts.
thestringpuller: seems dope
as hell: "His career spanned the regimes of Louis XVI, the years of the French Revolution, Napoleon, Louis XVIII, and Louis-Philippe."
assbot: Logged on 14-01-2016 15:24:47; thestringpuller: DerpUnion: bitcoin mining is a black hole,
as in you'll never get the BTC out you put into miners unless you can do some voodoo. Even if electricity cost was 0, you'd still have trouble paying off the miners themselves unless you have direct access to $foundry
mircea_popescu: "old miners" do what you say in cases such
as saudi arabia cutting prices to sink obama's hopes of reindustrializing the us, sure. but note that there's a strong "god-given" element to this : the saudis didn't BUILD those oil deposits.

☟︎ mircea_popescu: and kakobrekla - how about assbot getting a !seen which returns "timestamp of last successful !v response" ? so
as not to have to use gribble's.
PeterL:
as far
as we know, we are the only people using trb?
PeterL: Atomicat, it would be a mining pool run using the same rule
as TRB (the real bitcoin)
mircea_popescu has no idea who any of these people are, googles the latter, he looks about
as black
as wesley snipes wtf.
mircea_popescu: "Star Wars was released theatrically in the United States on May 25, 1977. It earned $461 million in the US and $314 million overseas, totaling $775 million. It surpassed Jaws (1975) to become the highest-grossing film of all time; its gross was later surpassed by that of E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial (1982). When adjusted for inflation
as of 2013" << check it out, there was inflation since the 80s ?!
BingoBoingo: trb behaving
as expected so far, no forgetten gold in the wallet.dat yet
mircea_popescu: however more importantly b) there is NO WAY for neutral-S miners to profit from T2-Tn
as-is.
mircea_popescu: a) the expectation is,
as you've seen, that i'll get an accountant out of bed and on my own dime fix the mess power rangers made because hey, why not, it's a decentralized protocol which means some idiots break it and the world fixes it
mircea_popescu: all miners, whether they be S-indiscriminate or S-selective can mine T1 necessarily. the latter
as is ; the former
as T1 in 50% of cases and
as T1' in the remainder cases, where T1' = C-T1
mircea_popescu: their version of bitcoin is not actually valid
as per the bitcoin protocol.
mircea_popescu: hard forks are a change of the protocol.
as the change is NOT valid by everyone's rules, it is definitionally an alt coin.
mircea_popescu: they can be applied by convention.
as the chance is still valid by everyone's rule, no changes are needed.
mircea_popescu: there isn't a "you do yours and i do mine" thing here. IF we decide to mine
as much
as one single high s block, this INVALIDATES all further work of all noncompliant miners. forever.

as modern portland etc, after a seattle blueprint)

mod6: shinohai: see if you can get the same
as me ^^ (see dpaste)
pete_dushenski: "Wences: Okay, I agree with that, friend ; I don’t want to offend you, so I am going to use my mom
as an example." << can you spot the three tell-tale scammer hooks here ?
assbot: Logged on 14-01-2016 00:01:18; kakobrekla: also unrelated, ex asseteer wences is now on board of director
as paypal it seems
mod6: you should be able to sync the whole thing now and get those ones
as well.
shinohai: I got
as far
as pressing, but code doesnt change mod6 :/
mod6: you should be able to drop those patches into your patches directory for V, and then also put the seals in your seals dir -- once that's complete doing `./v.pl f` should show you a flow with those patches in there with 'asciilifeform'
as the signatory.
mircea_popescu: "wavelength

ascii_butugychag: (note that the proofs don't need to be about a commonlisp program per se, but anything that can be expressed
as one)
mircea_popescu: The noise that was observed
as random structure was not itself random. It contained topological order, a universal scale-free recipe for fitting together. Supercomputer simulation of 24,000 cerium atoms plus 8000 aluminum atoms with or without the topological footnote added is enlightening. Plot respective structure factors against the reciprocal space vector for each case. The curves are identical! Where is the inform
mircea_popescu: "Memory cannot be found because it is not localized, nor does it exist
as such. One felicitous memory model is the amorphous glassy metal alloy Ce3Al. Melt-spun alloy passes all local and global tests (HRTEM, ED, XRD, 2D XRD) for random order. Load a diamond anvil cell with a 50x40x15 micron3 sample. At 3,539,000 psi it remains amorphous. At 3,626,000 psi it is a single crystal. Science 332(6036) 1404 (2011), "Long-ran
ascii_butugychag: (and not,

as it did not have totalitarian apparatus attached)
mircea_popescu: "Economists do the economy
as psychologists do the mind. A watershed of data is statistically manipulated. Miserably intricate deeply parameterized speculative theory is fit to data, protected from criticism by complexity. Extrapolations are made. Official predictions are absurd versus observed reality. Economists scream "heteroskedasticity!" and demand multi-$trillion Federal bailouts. Psychologists disdain irrelevanc

assbot: Logged on 13-01-2016 01:14:54; gabriel_laddel: No lisper to date has produced a distro that DOES NOT CHANGE so one may use it
as a platform for application development. Lisp solves a well-specified set of problems - ensuring that your algol reproducibly builds is not one of them.
gabriel_laddel:
As for why a lisper didn't write his own OS from ASM? Well, you've read Stan's blog.

☟︎ mircea_popescu: yeah well... this logic is broken. so lisp is good because, and i quote, "Because Lisp,
as a tool, is to the mind
as the lever is to the arm. It amplifies your power and enables you to embark on projects beyond the scope of lesser languages like C. Writing in C is like building a mosaic out of lentils using a tweezer and glue. Lisp is like wielding an air gun with power and precision. It opens out whole kingdoms
phf: everything talks to xlib, win32, carbon/cocoa and on top of that to opengl, directx. there are parts of that stack implemented in lisp (either
as clients or
as hosts). there's no opengl in lisp, there's opengl client in lisp. there's both xlib client and server in lisp, etc. there's not enough lisp code to run the whole graphics stack from the lisp machine to the video card end to end
phf: mircea_popescu: here
as in in #b-a
phf: mircea_popescu: i think that there's a bunch of people trying to chuck moore their way out of "modern computing" here,
as such there's not native anything
phf: gabriel_laddel: i'm saying that it's only worthwhile to bring in zen if you want to ultimately do x11 support for foreign code. right now your problem is clim+xlib, you want your problem to be clim+xlib+zen+cl-opengl+glx. if the ultimate goal is drop x, then might
as well try and retarget clim to framebuffer. the two (adding zen and framebuffer clim) or at 100% identical in the amount of effort
phf: also zen doesn't support most of the modern x11 extensions, that you might want for running something like firefox. in fact last time i checked it didn't support xrander, which is an old image composition extension that might
as well be standard
phf: main problem with zen right now is that it does rendering, but it uses opengl (glx specifically)
as the framebuffer. i've not looked at the implementation bits, but i assume that it goes beyond simple blit, so you might be able to retarget it to other opengl, but not necessarily straight to framebuffer, without implementing your own blit level rendering primitives
mircea_popescu: but be all this
as it may, for
as long
as gossipd.pop | print yields ((1,2),(2,3)) for me while gossipd.pop | mathgraph yields whatever ascii wants it to yield, we're happy.
mircea_popescu: jurov there's a difference between a proper existing ast, such
as we have with words, unless we're idiots ; and a random gcc barf product.
ascii_butugychag: but somehow this turned into 'let's do maths
as euclid did, with WORDZ!111'
mircea_popescu:
as long
as what we do is we take ((1,2),(2,3)) and either print it
as such or else draw it for your benefit
as seen there, if you run a plug in everyone's happy.
mircea_popescu: nothing,
as long
as you don't expect me to run the program
mircea_popescu: do you understand that your computer is broken by design for
as long
as you allow the conceptual possibility of adding symbols ?
ascii_butugychag: mircea_popescu prolly writes his electrical schematics
as netlists every time, etc
mircea_popescu: ascii_butugychag you know that thing
as displayed is actually meaningless.
mircea_popescu: currently what alf counts
as "notation" for math is roughly speaking a sort of c++
trinque:
as for music I prefer a tracker, or yes, writing code to produce it
jurov: symbolic shorthand is very useful for a mathematician who want to pack
as much stuff
as possible into his viewport/chalkboard

trinque: the comment about syntactic barriers was this, that if the hieroglyphs keep dummies from mauling the field (even
as a happy accident), there are much better ways to push them out

☝︎☟︎ ascii_butugychag: 'Councilman Clinton J. Olivier... ...asked Dyer a simple question: “Could you run my threat level now?” Dyer agreed. The scan returned Olivier
as a green, but his home came back
as a yellow, possibly because of someone who previously lived at his address, a police official said.'
ascii_butugychag: '
As officers respond to calls, Beware automatically runs the address. The searches return the names of residents and scans them against a range of publicly available data to generate a color-coded threat level for each person or address: green, yellow or red.'
