http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=09-08-2015#1231871 <<< what is with (i assume) americans and no banking under 18? one of
the first
things we did at school was open a junior saver account whereby each friday
the local banker rep would come by
to collect our bank books and our $2 deposit each week, every week, each year without fail
☝︎ phf: i'm pretty sure once i manage
to build eulora on someone else's machine i'm just going
to retire from computing altogether
☟︎ ben_vulpes: clearly i don't understand how
the world werkz
Guest96371: Sounds like fun! Just figured I would
tune in and see if anyone had anything interesting
to say!
pete_dushenski: asciilifeform: "copy my rotor_buildroot_dot_config
to
the now-untarred buildroot dir as '.config'" << speaking of which, i seem
to be snagged up here. can't find 'rotor_buildroot_dot_config'
phf: ben_vulpes: i have fresh formulas for
the brew. also i've verified
that eulora indeed builds with gcc-4.9
ben_vulpes: anyways, do you insist on refusing
to see
the hysteresis in
the system?
ben_vulpes: oh i'm aware, have written at least one
taludic entry
mircea_popescu: we should be in a syncronised swimming
team ben_vulpes
ben_vulpes: patches and submissions
to
the ml must stand on
their own.
mircea_popescu: anyway, i suppose
this is when we say
that
the log is both free and good reading and call it a day.
ben_vulpes: asciilifeform: and what happened with
that db locks patch of yours
trinque: lots of people were wrongly recognized as all kinds of
things in
the past.
onlooker: Ok so alternative medicine, homeopaths are where generally recognised as doctors prior
to
the AMA and big pharmas
takeover of american medicine. If I'm
telling you something you don't know I'll feel special :)
ben_vulpes: unless you're apple and can forcibly cram your changes down
the world's
throat, you have
to wait for
the world
to catch up
to your releases.
ben_vulpes: <asciilifeform> i STILL don't understand why just about everybody insists on building stator. << adoption
takes a few weeks, have you seen
the android numbers?
ben_vulpes: <phf> re was explained in grant morrison's INVISIBLES series. get your facts, straight son, straight from
the source. fnord. << i
think
there are characters missing from
this line but i can't
tell
mircea_popescu: this idea seems
to be borne by your
talk of vast arrays ?
mircea_popescu: i
thought homeopathy was
that
thing where diluting
things makes
them work.
onlooker: mircea, homeopathy is practiced by a wide variety and includes a vast array of alternative medicine, I'm not suggesting it all works or doesn't. I'm just pointing out
that it's difficult
to investigate alternative claims when I have
to hack around paywalls
that I don't respect
assbot: Logged on 09-08-2015 03:47:30; mod6: so it wouldnt be a waste of my
time
to proceed in
that direction?
mircea_popescu: onlooker how did you get
the idea homeopathy does something, anyway ?
mircea_popescu: srsly, you need what, 15 minutes of her
time
tops ? she's got
the whole day.
onlooker: I said I had a son, anyway 15 hey, I guess my grammar and smaller vocab could be an excuse
to
think
that
mircea_popescu: you know what's also fascinating in
the same vein asciilifeform ? not everyone's courting
the most beautiful girl in
town! in a frictionless infospace
they would! nevertheless...
mircea_popescu: expect a millenium of actual slavery for
the plebs and not be disappointed by
the events.
onlooker: I wouldn't even
try
to argue morality, math is
the only morality I respect, if you can call it
that
mircea_popescu: onlooker nah,
the pendulum is swinging
the other way.
the poor had it way better
than anyone would have expected, after
the ww2 carnage. it is going away, it is perhaps never coming back
to
this degree.
onlooker: mircea popescu, "the poor" is arbitrary anyway, I'm not suggested
they even need rescuing rather
they
the playing field will be leveled whether
the rich or elites help
them or not
mircea_popescu: well because for a moment
the slave
thing and a previous comment sort-of made it look possible
that you were 15
onlooker: old enough
to remember when
the POTUS was admired as
the leader of
the free world, and young enough
to hope I live
to see
the last POTUS haha
onlooker: mircea popescu
they will only be
the cheapest if you stop asking lol
onlooker: because despite excellent job adults have done conditioning young people
to be slaves,
there are some who just won't submit
mircea_popescu: wait. someone seriously imagines
they're missing something by not reading random homeopatic
tracts ?
mircea_popescu: in any case,
there's no rescuing
the poor (and it's a morally dubious proposition
to even
try). let instead
those of
the poor
that are
there undeservedly claw
their way out. over many generations of belaboured effort, ideally.
onlooker: asciilifeform
thanks for asking, I guess a lot of
the ideas I'm interested in homeopathic and medical stuff.
There's a lot of "cures" out
there, and so much of it is behind paywalls. I don't really have a plan for how
to change it, I just expect it change for
the same reason I expect
the money
to end.
mircea_popescu: onlooker you're missing
the part where i'm not sharing ideas with you. because who are you.
onlooker: ah,
they are old idea lol...
they are a good start no doubt, but it's not really my point. Anyway I don't expect
the world
to see
things as I do, if everyone agreed with me I'd be worried anyway lol
onlooker: I just feel
that if we actually shared ideas instead of hiding
them from one another
the world would be a smarter place. I realise
the
thinking required
to get from here
to
there is a gargantuan leap
mircea_popescu: they played some modern shit. fucking insult
to civilisation.
mircea_popescu remembers in horror
the one and only boston symphonic orchestra session he went
to
mircea_popescu: the horse's still not slow just because all
these donkeys
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform no, i know where he's coming from. but what do you want me
to say.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform mayhap you have
the upper hand with
that yeah
onlooker: so you don't
think copyright, patent's or
the legal system are antiquated?
mircea_popescu: there's articles about
this on
trilema, you'll get
to
them in due
time.
mircea_popescu: onlooker i don't
think
the antiquated legal system being retained was at any point contemplated.
onlooker: let me
try another angle, would bitcoin work if it wasn't copyrighted? And if
the answer is yes, does it follow
that
this means we can share ideas while keeping a record of who owns what without requiring
this antiquated legal system?
