mircea_popescu: didn't adacore itself release a bare arm gnat ?

mircea_popescu: "An advertisement costs $250/month or $1250/6 months, plus an extra $50 if you want me to design it for you. Ads can expect about 10,000 to 20,000 impressions per day. Past ads that were interesting and well-targeted have gotten about five hundred clickthroughs in their first week, followed by a steady fifty clickthroughs per week thereafter." jesus christ, and ~nobody reads it on top of everything else. how the fuck do you g

mircea_popescu: he's not technically on the level of the literate-since-yesterday redditard, but he's very much on the level right above that -- zero intellectual curiosity (in spite of a lot of meta herp derping about it), absolutely no critical ability whatsoever, a complete inadherence to humor, metaphore, rhetorical device, subtext, any sign of an intellectual life whatsoever.

mircea_popescu: try to leverage technology to convince the political power to give you some decidous leaves inscribed with flattering but ultimately hollow words such as "glory forever!" which will stick around for a season before turning to dust.

mircea_popescu: "I would love to make a billion dollars ; Between a few people, I have $3.5million that investors are willing to invest ; and I have a team of people who are extremely skilled"

mircea_popescu: BigTexasBingo i don't want to read that, can there be a one line summary ?

mircea_popescu: think about it for a second, it's dubious if there are one thousand human beings alive today. the total monetary mass is well past the trillion mark.

mircea_popescu: you could, if you were a "tester". or an "influencer". or whatever.

mircea_popescu: douchebag anyway, i'm not saying the options you're taking aren't on the table. they are. i am however saying that the table won't last ; which of course is about as interesting in the direct as telling a brontosaurus happily chewing on a fern that a meteoir's coming. "so... what does this mean ~TO ME~, should i switch to chewing palms ?"

mircea_popescu: everyone involved in "technology", especially if the only language they speak is english and even more especially if their general philosophy is in the "I think medical science is still pretty healthy, and that the consensus of doctors and researchers is more-or-less right on most controversial medical issues." vein of above-illustrated jwzism are strictly speaking subhuman, and a great and needless burden to the planet.

mircea_popescu: whole pile is actually a lot of wank in the general vein of, "r jwz, how to survive the coming of mp"

mircea_popescu: "So Peterson wants to ensure we don’t get to the point where that’s the only choice left; he advises his acolytes not to destroy society (which leads to the chaos/authoritarian dilemma), but to recognize that they’re going to choose to follow some order of some kind, and that they should therefore intentionally follow even a flawed societal order, because it’s better than gas chambers and ethnic cleansing. The reality

mircea_popescu: asciilifeform no, the moneyshot is, "I'm going to need a source on that. the doctor dude seems to know what he's doing. also the ballistic gelatin is kinda hard to argue against"

mircea_popescu: a yeah!

mircea_popescu: meanwhile in local news bulletin : took slut out shopping yest, bought her a mostly see through and very ass-flattering dress at a shop which identifies itself as : "Punt. San Jose, centro al frente de la puerta principal del Colegio de Senoritas."

mircea_popescu: 2.7k lines between 8 and 10 this am, that's like... more interest in the ro language than the romanian government ever managed to generate in the entire history of a romanian government, spanning 1866-2018

mircea_popescu: aaand closing channels. #lesswrong is spectacularily retarded. i mean wikitardia levels of inane wank. #clojure and #bash are mostly dead, 99% join/part and the rest hi guise, i got a dumb question. startup and gaygeeks are dead.

mircea_popescu: in other lulz, /me joins #lesswrong. there's a "* Loaded log from Sat Sep 20 11:53:02 2014" ; then /me joins #startups. there's a "Loaded log from Sat Sep 20 11:52:17 2014". apparently... i did this once before ? ☟︎

mircea_popescu: in other world wide webs, "* Topic for #gaygeeks is: Welcome to #gaygeeks, a PG-rated social channel for geeky LGBT people and friends."

mircea_popescu: anyway. extended attributes is this ~dead standard that got implemented anyway, basically a kludgy extension of chown.

mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2018-04-03#1792736 << it's not that big. but, if indeed it is that big this is a reason to find more storage space, can't really cut them off. ☝︎

mircea_popescu: there's by now a large and visible class of dweebs who considered the "should i learn github or get boobs" dilemma and came out with "better get boobs -- govt pays for it."

mircea_popescu: basically "liberation" and "4th wave feminism" consists of a bunch of male dweebs with no utility that nobody wants appropriating feminity and taking over boobs.

mircea_popescu: and "default" is not a perfectly reasonable variable name holy shit. is this guy going to name his daughter "Cunt" ?

mircea_popescu: "in natural languages, we are used to context. indeed, contextual meaning is what makes natural languages natural. we have `list' as a verb, and we have `list' as a noun. we have `listless' as an adjective describing something (like a programming language) that does not have lists, and an adjective describing someone who is sort of permanently tired. when we need to disambiguate, we do so with more words."

mircea_popescu: epic contributions from "paul nakata" (hey, nobody on a stick but has a keybase key), some dork who "programs in cl every day" and the whole menagerie of "nobody told us to shut the fuck up like, ever"

mircea_popescu: oh, and : lobbes other than the design review, consider lifting the whole of gutenberg into your archive ? the idiots already have a https that is broken, so far http only works but who knows how long. ☟︎

mircea_popescu: spyked a good move at this point i guess would be patching trinque 's bot to be all cll.

mircea_popescu: a it does ?

mircea_popescu: phf still though, losing out on threading on a quad machine is a little dumb.
