BingoBoingo: Let's play a game of which mine are we working today https://archive.is/joG7C
mircea_popescu: seems a rehash of the entire "it's okay for fat woman to drown you in her lard in the subway. it's not ok for male to sit comfortably."
mircea_popescu: "TLDR: Fat with knee problems. Fat mother. Fat people are a cancer. " << i wonder how come people will throw an absolute hissy fit should mother dare smoke, yet nobody seems to get too worried should mother be obese. yet smoking is not nearly as damaging as obesity.
BingoBoingo: "This kid had an injury that I’d never seen before. Instead of articulating posteriorly to the patella, his femur went lateral while his tibfib went medial. Basically, his thigh was sliding to outside while his shin was sliding to the inside. I’d seen dislocations before, but his bones were cocked out at angles that were different from typical traumatic dislocations. To me, it simply looked like his knee gave in under the weig

mircea_popescu doesn't recall the gentleman.
moldysnizz: long time
BingoBoingo: If I designed this it would use 1024 most common nudes encoding
mircea_popescu: if i designed this, the -a flag would yield a "1024 most common english words" encoding.
mircea_popescu: dumbest fucking idea. why THE FUCK would the transport layer be even aware of pgp as opposed to plaintext.
BingoBoingo: fwiw this tends to happen msot often when messages are produced with GPG v2 and the first layer included mentions of MIME types
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo it's all the result of "easy to use" tools that run automagically.
BingoBoingo: <mircea_popescu> like dioxin-free tomatoes. << or dioxin free roads/parks
BingoBoingo never ceases to be surprised by the ways people bend GPG to produce bundles inside of bundles to the point it is impossible to discern where one might begin untangling the second bundles
BingoBoingo: <felipelalli> I wrote it on Emacs, I just re-sent. << I am at a loss now for how to extract this text
mircea_popescu: there's no reason for it to be "good" when kuhn describes it as a way for scientists to keep from being too stupid and also "bad" when ayers describes it as a way for red necks to still manage to fit in with their neighbours without shooting each other too much.
mircea_popescu: love or hate it, propaganda has a role in helping undifferentiated cells digest phenomena. pure, nude phenomena are indigestible by the human cell.
mircea_popescu: like dioxin-free tomatoes.
trinque: pretty hilarious sentence by Citizenfile there, too.
assbot: Logged on 18-04-2015 02:49:04; trinque: Citizenfive | What I'm saying, if I'm saying *anything*, is that the words don't matter. << I used to think this; lately I consider it an autoimmune disorder caused by lifetime immersion in symbolic shit
phf: that seems to tie with a broader point that once something is named, it's already over. propaganda storm is kind of like grabbing onto something stationary while in a current, and realizing that there's a current to beging with, and that it's possibly strong.
mircea_popescu: ie, i'm so very proud and i tell ya : rather than english or german, french or american, you're better off moldavian.
phf: hehe that's a catchy song
trinque: to which I've been giving a great deal of thought since.
trinque: hm, this is relevant to http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=17-11-2015#1325981 ☝︎
mircea_popescu: oh where is that great song
phf: well, our rocket is made of cardboard, but their jeans are made of american dream
mircea_popescu: phf well, you know, onoculated from propaganda, what's that even. "i'm done with love" ?
mircea_popescu: i happen to think the same is true of propaganda, even though it's an ideal object. by the time it's ubiquitous, the thing's going to shit. propaganda storm is a reflection of developing propaganda resistance.
phf: same people who thought themselves inoculated from soviet propaganda, fell for western one hook line and sinker
mircea_popescu: "who needs blood when it spews from every orifice". seems like that's when you need it the most
mircea_popescu: could we say the same of blood ? air ?
trinque: watched Forrest Gump again last night with a similar morbid curiousity. in it, he's the "hero" for no other reason than he is maximally obedient. he's the perfect american.
mircea_popescu: the irony implicit being that had she watched it in 1978, she'd have thought it unspeakably great.
mircea_popescu: the flesh in the west was starting to build a new socialism, and the flesh in the east wanted what flesh always wants.
mircea_popescu: for specifically this reason : it is the direct equivalent to the set of euler's axioms.
mircea_popescu: i am sure it was the coolest movie in the soviet union.
phf: parents were telling me how saturday night was like the coolest movie in soviet uniont. nobody have seen it, but everyone talked about it. having a leisure suite from checkoslovakia was the pinnacle, etc. mom finally watched it in early 2000s, reaction was "wtf is this shit"
trinque: I just watched one of the dance scenes on youtube; Travolta is *awful*.
punkman: watched Un Prophete the other day, pretty damn good
mod6: i feel like I have to watch it now lol
mircea_popescu: for the record, mega article ^ imo
felipelalli: are you talking about \r\n e.g.?
BingoBoingo: felipelalli: With <a> tgs
felipelalli: Another question: strong, em etc. are HTML tags?
felipelalli: BingoBoingo, I did not understand the item 4, how can I create a link?
jurov: for the record: igprof won't work with stator, must change STATIC=all to STATIC=1 in stator.sh to get dynamic executable at final link time
felipelalli: BingoBoingo, thank you! I'll read.
assbot: Lacessiveram editor on Trilema - A blog by Mircea Popescu. ... ( http://bit.ly/1Io4Efa )
felipelalli: BingoBoingo, I just sent you an email with my first Qntra article. Good luck to me :)
phf: in this case "broken because of boost" is more like a description of an OSI layer, i.e. uknowable things are happening somewhere in the datastructures level of things
phf: one thing that i see happening here is a subtrate problem, i.e. oh boost is crap gotta use std c++, oh c++ is crap gotta use lisp, oh lisp is hosted on unix, gotta host on bare metal, oh bare metal is crap gotta vhdl our own cpu, oh can't do our own cpu because 3 factories. i'm not sure where that leaves us exactly
mircea_popescu: gotta distinguish these cuz the second's no good.
mircea_popescu: anyway, there's a valid and an invalid thing that i can readily see going under the same mantle. the valid side is an outgrowth of "no, we're not putting up with any shit, because shit reproduces itself, if you're going to make a sterile environment it gotta be sterile". the invalid part is well, paranoia, basically. "world is out to get itself!!!"
mircea_popescu: not all tumours are operable, is the sad fact of biology.
ascii_field: (and it HAS to be cured before pogo can be a thing)
ascii_field: presently i do not even know how to cure the far more straightforward 300 bytes/block thing, without walking into this
ascii_field: phf: in this particular case, there is also another thing - whether the problem is solvable without committing 'power rangerism' and mutilating the patient beyond recognition into a monstrous chimera
phf: what i meant to say is that sometimes ascii talks precise, but sometimes with a certain amount of flair, which roughly translates into "the problem is nasty, with many unknowns, and requires excessive amount of investigation and work, if it's even solvable at all." this was the second case, i.e. not literally clear(), not necessarily boost, needs further independent investigation
mircea_popescu: !up TwinWinNerD
ascii_field: ^ the hero, svyatogor
mod6: anyway, i need to give the IgProf hooks another try in a different, nongentoo env and see.
mircea_popescu: ascii_field you knwo the oglaf variant ?
mircea_popescu: !rate CheckDavid -1 Too young yet. May reconsider this in a year.
gribble: Error: For identification purposes, you must be authenticated to use the rating system.
mircea_popescu: ;;rate CheckDavid -1 Too young yet. May reconsider this in a year.
mod6: <+jurov> igprof won't work with stator, i guess? << i'm trying to recall the details... but i think it compiled ok iirc, but when I ran it (on a gentoo amd64 env) I couldn't get any thing to dump out for some reason.
ascii_field: until he ended up buried entirely in the earth.
ascii_field: and most tried, grunted, gave up
ascii_field: and a sign, telling strong men 'pull with all your might'
ascii_field: where there is a little iron ring in the earth
ascii_field: there is a dismal ru version of the 'sword in the stone' sorta legend
CheckDavid: ANy ideas from the great minds in here?
CheckDavid: So Gyft has a 25% discount on giftcards? How can one take good advantage of the offer?
ascii_field: but right now there is not a process, no.
ascii_field: the process used to be me elaborately chronicling my travails on the ml
ascii_field: consult the docs
ascii_field: jurov: i don't recall now if there was any actual reason it had to run with dynamic libc
mircea_popescu: yeah, we kinda lack a process for this.
ascii_field: because there is actually not a good record of the last thing i did
jurov: the patch adds -l dl to LIBS
ascii_field: actually the only reason i logged on presently was to help jurov
ascii_field: jurov: gotta compile in the hooks
mircea_popescu: anyway, point remains, if someone [such as jurov] decides to spend a day on this he should have to use as little as possible hunting the history as that leaves as much as possible to actually doing work. ☟︎
ascii_field: at one point i considered bolting on stroustrup's 'smart pointers' thing but gave up in disgust
mircea_popescu: i never tried.
mircea_popescu: a nude yes is guaranteed to miss things.
mircea_popescu: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=27-11-2015#1332526 << for the record/future and as best practice : mod6's style of doing these, with pastes etc is much better, because it allows later effort to build upon previous effort. deedbot- is also not a bad venue to store this sort of thing, seeing how it's just code atm. "when i do so and so this is the bt resultant". ☝︎
mircea_popescu: nevertheless, im not equal to that task today
mircea_popescu: yeah, one of these days we'll make a sore point list of things, as a necessary [early] step towards printable btc.
ascii_field: where ~isn't~ the sore point
mircea_popescu: the usage of statics in that pile is still not understood [in its implications]. stands as a major sore point to this very day, six years later.
assbot: Logged on 27-11-2015 22:46:25; jurov: just found there are several static maps and sets tucked in misc functions, too...
assbot: Logged on 27-11-2015 21:57:56; phf: jurov: you know how it is here, there's one small problem, gets elevated to shitgnomes in all the things!!1 status
ascii_field: i am always astonished when folks ask question like this
assbot: Logged on 26-11-2015 20:20:07; thestringpuller: ;;later tell asciilifeform is it legit?
mircea_popescu: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=27-11-2015#1332451 << bonus points if it turns out lone gunman was reading the logs ? ☝︎
mod6: i think mine compiled ok with it.
mod6: if you get that igprof patch working jurov, let me know.
jurov: ascii_field: you meant this? http://therealbitcoin.org/ml/btc-dev/2015-May/000095.html
