☟︎ adlai: someday you could study the comparative damage done by almost-lisps such
as ruby
ascii_field: theodor dalrymple (british) had a piece describing a scene he witnessed
as a medic in liberia, where enraged orcs sawed the legs off, and carefully too massive shits into, a rare and very costly concert piano
assbot: Logged on 03-12-2015 14:47:46; mircea_popescu: does anyone have the line where i tell asciilifeform or someone that their love of lisp is misplaced, because a) c was just
as great before the horde got involved and b) if lisp were to become fashionable it'd be cpp in short order ?
assbot: Logged on 26-06-2015 20:37:43; mircea_popescu: anyway this looks like it's going to be an epic b-a summer. phuctor delivered, eulora came, nodes are moving, apparently cardano
as well,
pete_dushenski: "lower barriers to entry for massage parlors makes the black market for prostitution larger, but also less risky. This is due to illegal prostitution buyers and suppliers switching to the quasi-legal sector,
as well
as quasi-legal sex workers facing a reduced wage premium for high-risk behavior. Consequently, the incidence of gonorrhea and rape falls in the general population."
adlai sees 3NEH2ZA
as not even signed, and 0NMP5ZE
as bad sig

mircea_popescu: ;;google site:trilema.com. no such thing
as bitcoin taint
danielpbarron: ;;google site:trilema.com there is no such thing
as bitcoin taint
punkman: one would certainly be tempted to use kalash
as input device for current computars
thestringpuller: That's about
as far
as I can get before it looks egyptian to me.
mircea_popescu: "this makes no sense but i'm going to be insane nevertheless - anything, anything just
as long
as i stay depersonalized kthx"
phf: kakobrekla: hey, so log entry #1314006 has a handful of newlines in the entry itself. what's the convention there? \n\t\t
as line continuation?
mircea_popescu: but more broadly, it's a bid for survival. for
as long
as they still have oil reserves, the risk of oil no longer being used is much larger than the "loss" of selling it cheap.
jurov:
as for eyebleeding hacks news, naive tx deallocation from bitcoind mempool indeed has little effect on RSS due to fragmentation. currently retrying with "libumem"...
pete_dushenski: "Zuckerberg, 31, and Chan said they plan to give away 99 percent of their Facebook shares over their lifetimes to advance the initiative, which was formed
as a limited liability company controlled by the two. It will begin by focusing on personalized learning, curing disease, Internet connectivity and community building." << hurry! quick like bunnies! while the shares are still worth even a dollar a piece! must! d0n4
BingoBoingo: ascii_field: His crumbs largely consist of travel he could not otherwise undertake
as miser to said "hackathons" it seems
ascii_field: BingoBoingo: i was (and still am) at a lost
as to what, if anything, he has to do with the derps who took the money
mircea_popescu: showed up, had a chat with mod6
as to how to work together.
adlai: it's already performing a role
as a little capacitor on the profit release valve
mircea_popescu: somehow a bunch of [mostly white] kids bought into this theory that "intelligence"
as they define it is worth two shits.
mircea_popescu: <ascii_field> all i can see is de raadt's 'almost about to work
as cashier' thing << and having EARNED it, too.,
BingoBoingo: Microsoft will donate all the money in the world to OpenBSD so long
as no penny goes to keep Deraadt alive
BingoBoingo: <ascii_field> all i can see is de raadt's 'almost about to work
as cashier' thing << YEs
ascii_field: all i can see is de raadt's 'almost about to work

BingoBoingo: My impression is that Foundation pays pretty much anything that can be billed like power, conference hotels, conference food though it pointedly does not offer anyone $x
as compensation in the name of not starving.
pete_dushenski: "Yes, 20BTC would definately have you listed
as a significant foundation contributor on our contributions page, assuming you wanted to be listed there."
assbot: Logged on 01-12-2015 20:20:24; ascii_field: evidently meant
as a riddle for us
mircea_popescu: stick to explaining the absence of "real" enemies of usg
as well
as the absence of non-white swans.
ascii_field:
as described in mircea_popescu's 'problem of too much money' mega-article
ascii_field: american cpu is just
as happy to be reverse-engineered by a ru schmuck
as it is to calculate payroll for chrysler
assbot: Logged on 01-12-2015 19:11:26; phf: re "sell services give away code", clozure associates (ccl people) recently laid off a bunch of their devs. including such heavyweights
as rme and gbyers. presumably because like ascii said, nobody's buying
mircea_popescu: they don't seek "mortgage, health and dental". they seek to be "free to dedicate themselves to intellectual work,
as they define it".
punkman: "EkoParty began
as a small gathering of Argentine hackers who exchanged their discoveries over the web. Today, hundreds of Argentine hackers, ranging from 14 to 45 years old, line up around the block to show off their skills to executives from Silicon Valley start-ups like Synack, a security company,
as well
as more established consulting firms like Deloitte"
BingoBoingo: <ascii_field> i suspect now that krebs has it iptable-banned << I've noticed a few other sites seem to offer archive.is null
as well
shinohai:
as for halal ... lamb chops on the grille tonite
ascii_field: ('serious' crypto was strictly otp in su lands,
as it is today. field crypto was, often, 19th c.-style transposition derpery, relying largely on the very short useful life of the message to avoid being broken)
ascii_field: just
as perfect (or 'unusable', take your pick) today
as it was in 1918.
ascii_field: jurov: su state of the art re: crypto,
as far
as i can tell, was ~deadly boring~ - good ol' vernam otp

☟︎ trinque: how bout sell openbsd
as a fucking product, you communists
ascii_field: who will just
as readily move corpses
as dirt, if paid
ascii_field: 'The NSA's newsletter in which this report appears would never again mention that academic cryptographic community. Nor did any released Snowden-derived document discuss anything of our community. It's
as though we progressed from a band of philosophers worth a few pages of snarky commentary to an assemblage too insignificant even for that.'
mircea_popescu: this pretense that say france is a country because holy usg says it's a country, while isis is not a country because louise shelley acts
as if it weren't...
adlai: from a sufficiently detached cis-privileged cynicism, this reads
as "the only thing you have to fear is fear itself"
punkman: greek papers are attributing
as "Russian-backed Armada Collective"
assbot: Arthur Hayes of BitMEX: Chinese Exchanges Are Operating
As Shadow Banks - Bitcoin Markets Guide - Top BTC Futures Exchanges ... (

trinque: been a few complaints; I like it
as an intro to the feed
pete_dushenski: " They were probably my happiest years ever,
as the hotel was THE place to be back before the nouveau riche scum from the Middle East and the old Soviet Union polluted the place beyond repair or redemption. Visit it and weep." ~taki
pete_dushenski: "Trump was taking Obama to task for his past remarks that global climate change is one of the greatest threats facing the United States and the world. "I think one of the dumbest statements I've ever heard in politics -- in the history of politics
as I know it, which is pretty good, was Obama's statement that our No. 1 problem is global warming,""
mircea_popescu: for the needs of this conversation,
as well
as so many others.
mircea_popescu: it's true that young kids in the us aren't qualified to be toddlers, and it's true that
as a result they sheepishly accept salaries that are a decaying joke.
pete_dushenski:
as seen in www.contravex.com/2014/09/25/we-gon-party-like-its-19-hold-up-it-is/
pete_dushenski: "Now that my fellow executives and I are goddamn beverage conquistadors, we’re going to enjoy this cocaine-fueled rocket ride for
as long
as it lasts. I’m blasting off to fucking Mars, dicksuckers, and I’m headed straight through the belly of the goddamn sun!" << obligatory, if indeed it's the case that 30 years is the best case (or ideal case) scenario for the time alloted us.
mircea_popescu: by this formula current btc inflation is almost 10x
as high
as it should be.
mircea_popescu: (Registrar: ENOM, INC.
as for some reason the derps don't use their own license)
mircea_popescu: which makes about
as much sense
as anything to do with dns, really.
punkman: and believed that he was taking part in a completely legal goat-burning tradition. After Jones was released from jail he went straight back to the US without paying his fine.
As of 2006 it was still unpaid."
mircea_popescu: seeing how the only question is "what fraction of bitcoin reserves is safe to be kept
as fiat"
BingoBoingo: And my nose doesn't need to identify
as transJewMayoQueer
phf: i keep bookmarks around, per subject that i'm interested in, or mp/ascii dialogues that i might want to reread. a solution that i was thinking of hacking up in my own system is ranged highlights, basically same idea
as on trilema, but instead of point-to-point it's entries and ranges. so on subject of v the link becomes entries=333,350-380,490-492,500-505. perhaps that sort of bookmarks can be shared, to have an illuminated log
mircea_popescu:
as far
as the later thing is concerned, it's not clear it actually is any better (because you will necessarily have to read EVEN MORE), we know from experience that machines can not do this, and contemporary semiotics seems to indicate the task is intractable in principle.
mircea_popescu: one thing i can see : the conversation graph is incredibly complex. there's two practical ways to present it : either
as a flat file without any structure other than what's provided by the author ; or else
as a properly restated graph, which will do a lot of node replication
as oyu have to unwind the rat's nest of reference.
mircea_popescu: i mean, for
as long
as there isn't a solution, the best thing to do is not pretend to solve the problem
kakobrekla: it shouldnt split (although it can be) and
as it is now it cant ever split.
mircea_popescu: if it doesn't do that might
as well forget the pretense and do this.
mircea_popescu: suppose i quote two different things respondent. the thread should now split,
as a tree. it does not do that.
mircea_popescu:
as far
as im concerned the classic forum is unusable because it is perfectly unable to handle quotation. it's the same exact problem of "inline" comment display for wordpress : you end up either with an arbitrary node depth or else single character lines
mircea_popescu: have the firewall set up so it can only connect to them (deny from all accept from X Y Z)
as a way around the incredibly braindamaged way the client itself handles connections
pete_dushenski remembers learning about shift from 'gnp' to 'gdp'
as boy and apparent shadiness of this bait-and-switch even then
jurov: from what i see from the logs, foundation node rejects them
as nonstandard
pete_dushenski: that youtube would be so wetoddhad
as to pay derps posting random videos of anything 4x that is frankly inconceivable
