PeterL: you don't seem to grasp the must pay first/can pay first difference
PeterL: solrodar they didn't say all suppliers must be in the same class, the receiver has the option to classify suppliers as urgent/non-urgent
solrodar: I have only 0.2 BTC of outstanding bets, so this isn't really a conflict of interest for me
solrodar: yes, and I don't see where you responded to that point
davout: solrodar: which is why i haven't written it in stone, in case you did not notice
mircea_popescu: that's why black people aren't "naturally thieves" irrespective what black people you can personally summon to mind.
mircea_popescu: you can't base your judgement about what to do with a category on the basis of what you know or "can imagine" in terms of examples from that category.
solrodar: if that is rejected or haircut, it doesn't impede the liquidator's work
mircea_popescu: solrodar bills are senior because in general for the same general reason. you don't pay electricity, bankrupt or not, you can't have the lights on. receiver still has to work.
mircea_popescu: i don't credit the "sybils quam sybils" theory.
assbot: Logged on 18-03-2016 02:20:52; asciilifeform: 'we are entitled to everyone's plain text data, and if Congress won't give it to us, we'll use our 27.1 billion dollar budget, and army of 100K lawyers to take it in court. Your tax dollars at work.'
mircea_popescu: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=18-03-2016#1435685 << except 27 trn doesn't begin to matter in this discussion. ☝︎
mircea_popescu: also, it wouldn't be "bucks", it'd be gyeuros.
pete_dushenski: ecb wanted to keep up with feds but weren't nearing election (or selection) so they transgendered the poor sob
mircea_popescu: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=17-03-2016#1435633 << i don't use heretic conventions. /n ftw. ☝︎
ben_vulpes: i don't see how it can continue without mods and hosting on the books.
asciilifeform: i can't speak for the farmers, but i would take the bull over boredom.
asciilifeform: 'we are entitled to everyone's plain text data, and if Congress won't give it to us, we'll use our 27.1 billion dollar budget, and army of 100K lawyers to take it in court. Your tax dollars at work.' ☟︎
BingoBoingo: punkman: Don't get what?
asciilifeform: (it isn't useless, but a whole chunk of fs for them?!1)
asciilifeform: you can't magic away the 'metadata' thing just by closing your eyes to it.
jurov: can't we have the signature just slapped to the end of payload?
mircea_popescu: the problem with safewords isn't that they're in-band to any degree. the problem with safewords is that they pretend to recast s/M relationships into a circus approximation. the submissive partner may not pretend to option as to when, or as to how the dominant partner extracts his pleasure out of his hide ; nor may (ipso facto inept) third parties purport to misrepresent any sexual relationship in terms other than stuf
mircea_popescu: if it weren't for the pesky armed insurection, iraq would be "cleanning up corruption" as we speak.
asciilifeform: ^ i can't help but wonder how this reads to peanut gallery !
mircea_popescu: wasn't this incident specifically. just, buying off rural/urban poor votes with refined sunflower oil / sugar / bla bla has been going on for decade plus.
mircea_popescu: a) i've on many occasions said, "this is stupid but will be instructive, proceed" ; b) you think this is about production, which it isn't, it's educational.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform> what's easier than soldering a plug into a pre-prepped landing pad ? << ANYTHING that doesn't involve "pre-prepped". what's easier than marrying this girl your mommy splayed out on the bed for you ???
mircea_popescu: phf methinks you may be alone in that interpretation. i for instance don't do the whole "accept as fairitale" thing.
mircea_popescu: i'm going to power 100x 12 v transformers because wut, "i can't make things - gotta use chinese made!!1"
asciilifeform: and it isn't as if these don't come with a civilized 12v regulated brick.
mircea_popescu: if one in 100 shorts you get a 1% increase, which they don't care anyway.
asciilifeform: 'don't eat from dumpsters' (tm) (r) (mp)
mircea_popescu: well, since alf doesn't want to engage the failure modes of "we know what stupidity is", let's just leave reference to perhaps the best folkloric work of all time, https://archive.org/stream/operecompletedig301pitr/operecompletedig301pitr_djvu.txt
danielpbarron: pogo really shouldn't be used for this purpose :< ☟︎
asciilifeform: or is there some ~other~ wotless 'proven practice' i don't know about.
assbot: Logged on 17-03-2016 14:05:47; mircea_popescu: (to explain my thought process to the curious bystander - i would have seriously considered the application of a fiat-based receiver with provable practice but innocent of the wot over solrodar's ; i won't consider such over davout's. this means that in the past coupla days a window for some people to actually make their corpses useful to the world opened and closed - notwithstanding their or anyone
danielpbarron: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=17-03-2016#1435136 << still having a hard time with this. Wouldn't shifting the nonce just leave you with another nonce? I don't understand how it would line up with multiple nonces.. ☝︎
mircea_popescu: anyway, impalement is what i'd do. established absolute ruler of great power and etc. isis isn't that, just a swarming mob. of course they prefer beheadings, manlier.
assbot: Logged on 17-03-2016 14:24:58; mircea_popescu: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=17-03-2016#1435045 << you';re better off with digital storage than analogic. even for the narrow cases where analogic usually wins (film archival) it's on the grounds of "preserving the original item, which was analogic rather than transform it in some manner the lossy-ness of which we can't evaluate", nothing more.
asciilifeform: doesn't everyone!??!1111
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform just because one whore was easy doesn't mean all whores are going to be as easy.
assbot: Logged on 17-03-2016 08:25:22; jurov: hanbot: it's hard to determine what is obsolete and what isn't in past logs, i'd do only new stuff from now on and go back only following explicit references
mircea_popescu: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=17-03-2016#1435055 << they should at least wear those cute see through frilly socks! if they can't go all the way to http://41.media.tumblr.com/a512c6749b02295db8b4c267a379a075/tumblr_nlayqenekm1u2r4a0o1_1280.jpg ☝︎
mircea_popescu: in fact, that's eactly how engineering ISN'T done.
mircea_popescu: i mean i know gavin-moore law will "fix this in the future", of course, but this isn't how engineering works.
mircea_popescu: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=17-03-2016#1435045 << you';re better off with digital storage than analogic. even for the narrow cases where analogic usually wins (film archival) it's on the grounds of "preserving the original item, which was analogic rather than transform it in some manner the lossy-ness of which we can't evaluate", nothing more. ☝︎☟︎

davout: well i did get that and read it, but i don't have any particular assets or connections other than my wot and history that put me in a particularly better position than others to do the job
mircea_popescu: there's a list there. don't have to go through it as is, read it, think it through also works.
assbot: Logged on 15-03-2016 00:55:05; mircea_popescu: i don't think you take my meaning. have you for instance ever auctioned a domain name successfully ? are you well known in those circles ? anything ?
assbot: Logged on 17-03-2016 02:54:43; asciilifeform: why isn't he here, again?!1111
mircea_popescu: doesn't tell me much.
mircea_popescu: this is the fundamental problem of ethics, that you can't have an intelligent justification of will, merely a willful justification of intelligence.
mircea_popescu: will may give restrictions of domain upon which an intelligence function may be constructed so it's coherent, but this then doesn't provide a method to justify the will upon which the whole construction is based.
mircea_popescu: davout i wouldn't, in principle.
punkman: !t m s.mpoe
jurov: i can't think of any possible serious objections
jurov: hanbot: it's hard to determine what is obsolete and what isn't in past logs, i'd do only new stuff from now on and go back only following explicit references ☟︎
punkman: "We didn’t see any of this happening,” Ramos said. “They’re saying Michael wanted to kill himself. We just don’t know.” She said that Michael Ford’s mother suffered a heart attack after police in Prince George’s burst into her house to search it following the shooting and that she is now at the same hospital as her son." << we just don't know, lol
asciilifeform: why isn't he here, again?!1111 ☟︎
asciilifeform: t barely touch the skin of the hand. The repetitive rhythms of changing operational codes, as an application for example initialises its opening state, are translated into the hypnotic, up and down movements of the needle (making use in the second prototype of a CD-ROM ejection mechanism), appearing somewhat like the slowed, jerked motions of a sewing machine.'
asciilifeform: i can't be arsed to figure out presently whether this eats start/stop-bits correctly.
BingoBoingo: Anyways worldstar isn't a tmsr thing, it's more an internet thing. basically If you sucker punch someone it is normally assault. If you shout "World Star" while you do it, it becomes instead a prank.
mircea_popescu: he lives in washington dc and doesn't care for term propriety.
mircea_popescu: if you do - don't come to me to bail you out when they blow up.
mircea_popescu: don't engage in activities you're ashamed of.
mircea_popescu: i don't get all these people participating in "sealed" pseudo-legal proceedings.
mod6: kakobrekla: if you don't like the weather, just wait a few days.
mod6: Work amongst yourselves to decide who's on duty when so you don't have to worry if out of town or at whorehouse or whatever.
asciilifeform: except they aren't people but catz
mircea_popescu: shinohai no more like keep the notes organised so mod6 doesn't go blind looking for where the fuck i said about knobs and where was it.
mod6: yeah, but i can't ever find shit. and these details are too important to be lost.
mircea_popescu: but i don't think SUCH hard rape is contemplated at all.
mircea_popescu: jurov how ? his hash2 won't change.
mircea_popescu: mod6 it's not entirely impossible to make the shifting a function of difficulty differential (note that there isn't a rule BOTH hashes have to be under THE SAME number. if there's two numbers, you could have an equalizer algo that does the shift moving)
mircea_popescu: except by features i don't mean "features". obviously.
gribble: Error: You haven't asked me a command; perhaps you want to see someone else's more. To do so, call this command with that person's nick.
BingoBoingo: I know places where actual food happens seasonally and mass food is recycled in the fields though the Corn Cycle. I rightly can't believe the Coast or Death phenomenon as anything other than a form of Stockholm syndrome.
BingoBoingo: I don't know anything of these coasts.
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: Any idea where the video is? I can't seem to find it on "World Star Hiphop"
mircea_popescu: if a box goes down trying to figure wtf takes 10x to 100x longer than it takes t oboot
mircea_popescu: i still don't get this. all this derpage from the early days of systemd "it makes servers boot faster"
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform inasmuch as he steal speaks of "its money", orlov doesn't actually get the turkey dollars thing. he earnestly thinks that there is ONE kind of usdollar, and PART of that one is "wasted". whereas the situation in the field is that there's two kinds, ands the bezzle part can only be bezzled with.
mircea_popescu: shouldn't this run at the beginning every time ?
assbot: Why people don't test development distributions [LWN.net] ... ( http://bit.ly/1UAbLd8 )
mircea_popescu: my meagre understanding of computing doesn't allow me to discern the intended meaning.
mircea_popescu discovers that he can't rightly say what fedora even is. is it what, a distro ? some sort of centos ?
assbot: #1183 (Don't enable prelink by default in Fedora) – FESCo ... ( http://bit.ly/1R3GSt1 )
asciilifeform: i'm kinda surprised the whiners aren't here yet
mircea_popescu: what is this. mayhap the explanation isn't that mp lives in a heat-death immune dirigible (upgraded from atomic) but simply... does not care ?
mircea_popescu: anyway, i wonder why asciilifeform is so convinced that one may only see the truth of things that don't affect them personally.
asciilifeform: and the beast can't exactly grow a new brain if environment changes and it could take the chance of moving to a new rock.
asciilifeform: 'The juvenile sea squirt wanders through the sea searching for a suitable rock or hunk of coral to cling to and make its home for life. For this task, it has a rudimentary nervous system. When it finds its spot and takes root, it doesn't need its brain anymore, so it eats it! It's rather like getting tenure.'
mircea_popescu: that you don't like the outcome is not cause to alter the definitions lol.
mircea_popescu: notreally, as it doesn't adapt.
asciilifeform: i don't have another, functional os buried somewhere
assbot: Logged on 16-03-2016 11:03:11; mircea_popescu: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=16-03-2016#1433648 << not afaik. if you don't count various people (including alf most recently) on various occasions throwing their hands up in disgust at the dysfunctional pos.
