mircea_popescu: they will all burn at the same level.
mircea_popescu: so here's a bizarre matter of fact : if one were to buy a dozen candles and emplace them on a windowsil, so that they're at different heights (say two inches differential tallest to shortest) and let them burn for a half hour or whatever it takes to finger a girl to exhaustion,

mircea_popescu: copying what works is so high up on the "never EVER do" list it might as well be racism.
ascii_field: why not? it would taste especially great with google's reintroduction of factory dorms
mircea_popescu: the only thing you may expect groups of muricans to do is a) whine and b) ask for govt money.
ascii_field: (if it did, one might expect to see it copied by other firms)
mircea_popescu: no thinking / respectable person would run the farm of muricans any other way.
mircea_popescu: besides the point, really.
ascii_field: mircea_popescu: from my distant perch i cannot say whether the butugychag school of thought has given amazon any advantage vs the other great halls'o'humancompilers.

mircea_popescu: if they were human beings this sort of thing wouldn't be needed. they aren't.
mircea_popescu: they exist because of the worthless peasants.
ascii_field: 'fire bottom x%' decimations; 'promote top y%, defined in asinine quantitative metrics', misc. sovietisms
mircea_popescu: jurovconsider i have there one cdg with q 465, storage shows 240 << grass is 60, q 100, and cft is 180, q 100. no idea why it shows 240, atm. but we KNOW that the prices shown are broken atm, and chetty was going to fix them, but then got some health problems. it's still on the list to fix, and will be fixed asap.
ascii_field: mircea_popescu: i only met a few of these folks. but they all said strictly same things, described something quite like the practices that breathed life into the labour unions of 100 years ago...
mircea_popescu: until then, work conditions are too soft.
mircea_popescu: as you say, wake me up when inept woman is stripped, whipped and left tied to the office door over the weekend.
mircea_popescu: ascii_field i am willing to bet the complaints are ALL "oh we were defrauded, landlord kept our deposit and we didn't really piss on the parquet. it was not our fault!"
ascii_field: (nor really tried, afaik.)
ascii_field: amazon has not, for most of its existence, turned a profit in the customary sense of the word.
ascii_field: 'Bezos runs a company, not a playground for millenials. He runs it to make a profit...' << the last bit is technically a mistake...
ascii_field: but, as i understand, they come in, and soon come out of the other end.
ascii_field: rather than packed into vans and forcibly pressed, yes.
ascii_field: well the interesting part is that people go to work there.
mircea_popescu: not bezos' fault they're essentially rus empire peasants.
mircea_popescu: that's the only way you can run something with muricans.
ascii_field: ben_vulpes: every escapee from 'amazon' i've personally spoken with, said essentially same thing: 'run like sov uranium mine'
mircea_popescu: but, i dun want you to walk away poor from the exercise either, so post an address an' i'll send you a bitdime or something.
ascii_field: ah and there is ben_vulpes himself
mircea_popescu: but also, you shouldn't take this as a bad light on yourself, i think you did a reasonable job, just, the requirements are insanely tight.
ascii_field: ;;later tell ben_vulpes re: article: usg won't 'hand out cash' for the same reason that comcast et al doesn't actually promise 1Gb/s at 100% dutycycle. (the rest of it, i have failed to make sense of)
mircea_popescu: well, sadly, i can't use any of the stuff you produced so far. going through this latest one, it's still easier / faster for me to do the whole translation than to correct it.
gabrielradio: what say you mircea_popescu? am i suited for translating the old testament of trilema?
ascii_field: 'spermatozoa, those lonely noahs!' (tm) (r)
ascii_field: gnarly ball o'shit language, doesn't want to rhyme at all.
ascii_field: english is perhaps one of the worst things to translate them to, though.
ascii_field: there are a few of my attempts in the logz.
