mircea_popescu: but read
the fucking old ml, nobody goes "here,
try
this binary", it's always "add
this, recompile, say what happens"
mircea_popescu: at
the
time it looked like
they might go somewhere with it.
pete_dushenski: mircea_popescu: and you watched married with children ??

assbot: Logged on 09-09-2015 01:27:35; mats: not because i'm
trying

the sort of woman

the sort of sexually frustrated guy
that lives on a boat with a broken down engine
mircea_popescu: (if i actually lived
there and was doing a dc business, 100% what i'd call it.)

the word
there ?) i guess ima get another box at another dubious provider
☟︎ mircea_popescu: asciilifeform
the point of study isn't "memorize
this list of bugs"
mircea_popescu: study is just another kind OF PLAY ; and paper is just another kind of
TP.
☟︎ mircea_popescu: the notion
that "study is just another kind of work" belongs in
the same burning pile with "paper is just another kind of money"

than a day's work
to show for it.

the numbers asciilifeform ? for instance, shouldn't it be 16:9 ? so
then why not 16000 : 9000 ? 8000:4500 ?
mircea_popescu wouldn't mind using
that on a few skulls, so. progress!
assbot: Logged on 15-09-2015 13:44:58; mircea_popescu: it does not need
to serve any practical function other
than, allowing people so willing
to set
the bozo bit on
the idiot club.
mircea_popescu: (unlike adults, infants do not have a means of protection and so
the bacterium can inhabit
their gut and poison
them.)
pete_dushenski: well botulism isn't hard
to acquire when you're stuffing umbilical cord stumps with dirt

that anyone but anthropologists even conceptualize interspecies commensalism.
pete_dushenski: i knew
that public health

the rest of
the so-called linux komyooniti
pete_dushenski: i was
toiling under
the impression
that it was
the 's' was

the american
pete_dushenski: til : In many parts of
the English speaking world (UK, Ireland, Australia, Canada, and South Africa) “practice” is
the noun, “practise”
the verb.
pete_dushenski: i obviously care neither for moyle nor
two sets of dishes, but plenty of people believe in childish fractals

tovah
tikatevu" means "May you be inscribed for a good year"

mircea_popescu: [by virtue of nobody else being on
that same island] apparently nobody wants
to burn him at
the stake!
mircea_popescu: much
to his surprise,
the blowback is significantly less
thgan what he had expected!

thestringpuller: why not just build delivery into
the contract as a fail-safe...
mircea_popescu:
http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=14-09-2015#1273847 << cuz at
the
time it wasn't exactly clear how
this'd work (as
the contract is a future on a yet nonexistent pair) and cuz i wanted it
to be a negotiable instrument rather
than a specified
thing, specifically because
that sort of vague future deal requires some room
to wiggle.
