mircea_popescu: similarly courts won't count emancipation unless you're actually prepared to be a state.
asciilifeform: idea being that 'stateless' folk are 'victims' with 'rights' and you can't simply get that status artificially on own free will
asciilifeform: one imho interesting quirk of international convention is that most countries will not 'count' your renunciation if you don't have a spare citizenship somewhere else
BingoBoingo: Ban wasn't as perma as previously thought
asciilifeform: BingoBoingo: wasn't he formally drummed out ?
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: is this one of those 'can't be taught or described' magic juices ?
asciilifeform: in the smart folx who don't show up.
mircea_popescu: and as to the "o no, it was us in 2004"... link or it didn't happen.
mircea_popescu: anyway. the society of intelligent folk is entirely optional for other intelligent folk. he doesn't HAVE to. he may, if he wants to, s'all.
mircea_popescu: hey mod6 if you have time today to hold my hand with your T, ima move the whole "hey x plox y" thing over.
davout: imho his bubble isn't too far from sanity
davout: i enjoyed his "learn C the hard way" and tried to pay him some btc for it a good while ago, didn't really catch as far as i remember
a111: Logged on 2016-05-11 16:34 mircea_popescu: danielpbarron if you don't mind drop a note @lzsthw with a link here, tell him he can have 0.1 btc if he shows up.
mircea_popescu: danielpbarron if you don't mind drop a note @lzsthw with a link here, tell him he can have 0.1 btc if he shows up. ☟︎
asciilifeform: what can i do, even my trb hasn't restarted since december
ben_vulpes: mircea_popescu: i don't actually know him
ben_vulpes: programmer/humorist isn't bad
deedbot: https://www.reddit.com/user/RailsIsAGhetto << overview for RailsIsAGhetto | https://www.reddit.com/r/ruby/comments/3jow6q/why_arent_there_any_online_ruby_courses_coursera/ << Why aren't there any online Ruby courses? Coursera, Edx, Udacity ... | https://www.reddit.com/r/Austin/comments/37yh7u/tired_of_feeling_unwelcome_by_not_being_from/ << Tired of feeling unwelcome by not being "from" Austin. : Austin
ben_vulpes: i can't really imagine "serving the people" in any way
mod6: On the otherhand, there isn't a legend yet. Green nodes = Saga tickes, Red nodes = Defect tickets.
mod6: I've also got the graph going from L->R, i can't seem to get it to be less wide very easy. Anyway, let me know what you think:
asciilifeform: those don't spit out alpha anyway.
mircea_popescu: you don't want to tie-in to momentuous, galactic events
mircea_popescu: difference between "still works" and "still same". 100 yo lightbulbs still work, but they don't have the same resistance they had 100 years ago
mircea_popescu: ftr t lange is pretty respectable, knitting or no knitting. http://www.hyperelliptic.org/tanja/
mircea_popescu: there isn't a pill for everything.
mircea_popescu: it's not a pill, even. "how can i lose weight while eating 5-6k calories a day ???" "you can't. stop eating." "hurr durr."
mircea_popescu: also the above lines didn't happen.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform if it was it didn't last long.
mircea_popescu: also i wanna know what the fuck irl name "milfseriously" has, just in case he shows up at any social event and isn't there as a toilet slave.
danielpbarron: and yes i probably could have mentioned that znort is in WoT but znort never talks here, so it's a toss up. Chat more, get more mentions. Don't chat, get forgotten
danielpbarron: BingoBoingo, I don't mind that you add words to my articles, especially when new info comes out after i have submitted it (like a third bet) but please don't add in a way that breaks the flow. The point I made in regard to the ethereum bet is hard to follow with the trump bet listed right before it
davout: http://btcbase.org/log/2016-05-10#1465428 <<< can't wait for the "plane" version ☝︎
mircea_popescu doesn't read it. fucking derps.
mircea_popescu: why the fuck even bother with https already. it's insecure, we know this.they don't even cursory make an attempt. what's next, go on tor ?
mircea_popescu: experimentally, intelligent girls they forget to teach about how they're creative and can't learn math accidentally learn math just like normal human beings. idem intelligent boys they forget to teach they should be shy and inept do just fine. in other news, http://i40.tinypic.com/69i0dz.jpg
a111: Logged on 2016-05-09 22:27 mircea_popescu: as i age i'm simply rediscovering what i knew as a nine year old, which is, that i really can't stand "smart kids".
mod6: i'll y to make some steps towards getting a genesis going -- gotta get through this `t' stuff first tho
mod6: although, i haven't done enough thinking on this yet to actually have a plan or anything. just throwing that out there.
mod6: i guess i don't see much of a reason to rush this
mircea_popescu: the intimation that losing it means you've "grown up" is particularly pernicious. you don't "grow up" by going bald. you just grow old, is all.
mircea_popescu: generally this "why can't we all get along, you don't really HAVE to hold your legs crossed like that in the subway, not REALLY, do you" bullshit readily irritates me.
mircea_popescu: as i age i'm simply rediscovering what i knew as a nine year old, which is, that i really can't stand "smart kids". ☟︎
mircea_popescu: "hey, unlike everything else, at least this one doesn't have 5kb of crud prior to the interesting bit"
asciilifeform: it showed a quite 'amateur hour' telltale delta, given as the hypervisor can't move the wall clock ~on the fucking wall~ and you can see that it slows the box.
mircea_popescu: it's a wonder the 2nd para doesn't start with "it's a cold muscovite october and the snow crackles under the steps..." or somesuch shit.
mircea_popescu: yeah well... i don't like the style of the author.
mircea_popescu: что платы из Китая содержат дополнительные программные модули, прошитые в биосе, а стандартные программы анализа эти модули не увидели." so does it or doesn't it coincide to the byte ?
mircea_popescu: j-dawg which one is t again ?
a111: Logged on 2014-08-30 08:31 Vexual: there you go caz, big fat hares t whever punk is
phf: i was thinking of maybe making standalone keywords search for a word, but if you want to grep, surround it with quotes. "t" will behave as now, where's t will behave as "^t " or " t$" or " t "
mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log-search?q=%22+T%22 << check out how nicely this works
phf: http://btcbase.org/log-search?q=%22+t+%22
mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log-search?q=t :D
j-dawg: unrelated, how do i search the logs for 't'? since there's no info on ml...
mircea_popescu: i dunno mang, apparently one can't think without ideograms or something.
phf: j-dawg: right, i think that's the one that's missing genesis though. so it's sort of a hybrid, you need original v.pl and then you press with a vpatch. i don't think that's the right way
mircea_popescu: probably the reason copyrasts didn't get away with much over 30 years of trying. no, it wasn't reddit, no "raising awareness" did jack.
phf: j-dawg: btcbase secretly tracks btcbase itself, since i'm experimenting with (load-v "foo.vpatch") type thing, but that's not public. i don't think there's a proper vtronic chain of V or rotor available, so unless i generate those myself there's nothing i can track
j-dawg: phf: btcbase.org doesn't track V itself or rotor?
mircea_popescu: either you're good enough to fly or you aren't, wtf is this subway in the air.
j-dawg: i won't ever forget my first time on transatlantic economy flight. couldn't sleep due to vibrations, terminally bored and pretty close to rage even without thoughts about first class
trinque: that "google custom search api" thing does actually hand back zero results for certain queries it seemingly shouldn't
danielpbarron: and i won't bother with the faq since apparently ascii got a text version of it
mircea_popescu: well archive is doesn't see it either, that's the extent of my patience.
asciilifeform: as somebody said to a famous aircraft designer: 'FLY in it?! i won't WALK under it'
danielpbarron: https://bitbet.us/bet/1255/thedao-to-be-the-largest-crowdsale-ever/ << can anyone see this page? it works on my iPhone in chrome but it doesn't work in chromium on gentoo..
mircea_popescu: the REASON it bothered the dudes is that now they couldn't tell themselves that it's ok they're not running amok among the smiling she-herd, grabing all the tits, because "you can't get in there". manifestly you can, and a foreigned=loser to boot, so they can^2, and what fucking difference does it make HE doesn't go japanese-subway-porn-berserk, that's because he's a loser=foreigner, nevermind that part!
mircea_popescu: that you can't pee with a hard-on.
mircea_popescu: but i also didn't pretend i'm a woman or anything. just, you know, these sorts of rules, psshh. they're lulzy because the pretense is always one way (protect teh modesty of teh ladies, o noes, as if), whereas the actual cause is exactly opposite (dudes can't fucking piss with women there).
shinohai: http://www.cnn.com/2016/05/09/politics/north-carolina-hb2-justice-department-deadline/ <<< Preet: Why can't everyone just shit together in the street like back home in India?
mircea_popescu: change.org is, by and large, obama's personal blog - except he doesn't write much and the comment section's self moderated. how is this relevant, his 8 years are up.
mircea_popescu: so : these tgps "traded" traffic with one another like crazy, on the idea that hey, there's a guy here with cock in hand, best sort him out to something he can get off to asap. so very much reminiscent of the egyptian shopkeepers who, if i inquired for an item they didn't have, would run off to a friend/cousin/competitor that did, then take me there and get a small cut of baksheesh.
mircea_popescu: shit bro, that's what, half hour's work a la http://trilema.com/2016/files-from-the-war-on-the-web-today-literotica/ or about four dollars' worth, provided twitter traffic is actually as productive as blind click skim. which it probably isn't.
asciilifeform: so first chopper didn't break you. fine, 2nd, 3rd, 4th.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform note that they very carefully don't go places lenin went w/o a thought.
mircea_popescu: no idea why they didn't go full takn and add the gunports, but w/e.
mircea_popescu: pete_dushenski don't forget armor.
pete_dushenski: 'boomtown' isn't growing at 10-20% per annum, tis true, but it's pretty resilient at these oil price levels. $20 would be a massacre, $40+ is more than liveable
pete_dushenski: BingoBoingo: lol i won't even try to guess what you think i should think about the alberta wildfires, but it's pretty damn lulzy to watch the reigning socialist party flail impotently as they attribute the projected 1/3rd loss of ~the country's~ economic growth for the quarter to "karma" because "karbon"
asciilifeform: it isn't in the logz prior to now, either.
mircea_popescu: it doesn't illustrate all pressables that are, but a sort of all pressables that could ever be.
mircea_popescu: and don't say stuff like <- either. time goes ->
mircea_popescu: well then don't say stuff like Z->Y.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform understand, it's not just that "if we can't get v to be easily intuitive it won't see mass adoption". it's moreover that if v isn't reducible to crystal fucking clear, we fucked something up.
phf: well, there's no issue with that graph presentation, because it produces correct press. it's just that graph is "meaningless" without the toposort. visualizing it doesn't answer any question beyond "this and that share a hash"
mircea_popescu: phf the thing remains, it's risky to take tmsr prototypes and extract meaning as if they were definitive canonical implementations of concepts. they aren't, yet.
phf: (i don't really know how mod6's vtron operates, only speaking of mine and asciilifeform's)
mircea_popescu: he couldn't have had, since he gave examples.
a111: Logged on 2016-05-08 14:15 phf: that's the behavior of the original v where the graph doesn't communicate any additional information beyond "shares a hash"
mircea_popescu: so ? this doesn't prove "not a bug"
phf: that's the behavior of the original v where the graph doesn't communicate any additional information beyond "shares a hash" ☟︎
phf: mircea_popescu: i don't think that's a bug, that's more of a conceptual thing.
ben_vulpes: http://archive.is/637lm << unrelatedly, don't you want to stay at the cow cave? the akita house? perhaps the host of the kangaroo treehouse's beguiling pose will entice you into a rental. if none of those appeal, consider pug palace, cow boat, or the cottage cheese cottage
mircea_popescu: i got as far ; but i don't see where or how, and his example is broken
mircea_popescu: or at least i can't seem to reorder it into something that seems reasonable.
mod6: if you grab this, and it didn't get munged, you should end up with this hash: 6eaa543333746c11069ff9ca85aaa6330419d0be95de21fafcdbd500e1bc6df2ef10c2dc1d104b15cb50da7b362eac6bf1ddf3830329367b31c1e59e1dc3c6a9
mircea_popescu: this can't be right.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform lulzy. "oh we can't brute force because reasons"
a111: Logged on 2016-05-08 03:06 mircea_popescu: phf i don't think polysemy is actually desirable in this context. edge should really mean one thing reliably.
