mircea_popescu: the retard medium is
the retard message. what
the fuck else.
mircea_popescu: dood spent a lot of
time disogranisedly fighting
the [to him, invisibly] organised morons.
mircea_popescu: the wrong approach.
The right fix is sometimes a completely different patch, and sometimes
there are several ways
to do it which will work, but you have
to pick _one_ way or
they'll interfere with each other." and so on and so forth.
mircea_popescu: "Most authors mean well, but most changes have problems. Often
they are conceptual problems,
the problem
they're
trying
to fix is real but
they
take
mircea_popescu: anyway, equally lulzy is rob langley
trying
to explain
to bellard and assorted nicks why and wherefore wikipedia is a bad
thing.
mircea_popescu: most of
these aren't.
the discussion of massaging long long etc in
the
tcc for x64 included in
that mailing list is most lulzy on
topic.
mircea_popescu: "Tinycc was once closer
to offering a serious open source alternative
to gcc
than anything else, and it's still simpler (and smaller, and faster), but part of
the definition of its development community was a willingness
to deal with development
tools from
the days of DOS." << what was his problem specifically
to
this day we do not know (beyond cvs not being able
to handle namechanges, much like ~every other wanna-be v until
mircea_popescu: which is,
truth be
told, what america was all about since day 1, over at valleyforge.
mircea_popescu: the point being, dumbphone creates an imaginary overlay over reality for dumbass
to interact with instead of reality.
mircea_popescu: whore's crack metamorphosized into pavement crack, one big government-maintained single-body whore, and
the city boi... welll.
mircea_popescu: literally
their entire collected works consist of a bunch of
them, face
to face,
tablet/smartphone clutched with white knuckles, finding pokemons.
mircea_popescu: it's a wonder
that "game" went away, it was
the game of fucking life for
these "free and open source" minds.
mircea_popescu: and
they never, ever, no matter
the fuck what EVER engage in any meaningful exchange.
two fucking ignominous
tards finding pokemons in front of each other on a subway platform.
that's all it is.
mircea_popescu: motherfucker,
that wasn't what was being discussed, now was it. "if you don't aim
to be employed by microsoft stop complaining abouyt windows crashes :)" fucktardry next, whainot.
mircea_popescu: and
the fucking :) usage,
too. "> If you don't want
to have CVS write access on Savannah, please stop complaining about your repository not being in sync :-)"
mircea_popescu: the demons people have
to conquer vary by gender, news at 69.
mircea_popescu: it makes a fucking difference, even before we stop
to consider
that
the native female ~also has different primitives~ one can leverage
to obtain satisfactory results without going
the exact same path.
mircea_popescu: and for reasons, which have
to do with
the ~ovopositor~ discussion. see ?
mircea_popescu: as a factual matter,
there wouldn't have been ww2 us bombers under any other paradigm.
mircea_popescu: in any case, let
the record reflect i find
the pompous feminity
they
titlessly assume personally offensive.
mircea_popescu: and i view esp
the drepper
thing very much in
these
terms, "we are dumb cunts deliberately and by design, and we will not excommunicate another dumb cunt irrespective of any considerations, because believe-women".
mircea_popescu: in short, it's a bunch of stupid cunts
tryna pretend like
the kitchen's
the world.
mircea_popescu: except
that pretense is obviously enough a bald face lie, if
they were ignorant
they couldn't be
this systematic.
mircea_popescu: they are ~studiously~ and systematically disrespectful of male hierarchy and patriarchy in general,
then
they evne more insultingly ~pretend
to not even be aware~.
mircea_popescu: whereas everyone else,
traditionally, will just fucking permit
themselves
to be dragged down
to
the lowest common denominator rather
than behead a misbehaving old hand.

took
the blue pill at some point prior
to
the republic, chasing
the
tenure dream somewhere lost in
the imperial wastes.
mircea_popescu: "He said
that
they have also contacted
the GNU Arch maintainer about adding GPG signing.
Though it may
take some
time
to develop,
the addition of GPG signing
to commits would be a welcome feature. " << see, because we
http://btcbase.org/log/2018-01-24#1775402 over his failure
to bring gribble up
to spec.
☝︎ mircea_popescu: "To
that end,
the compromise may actually be a good
thing in
the long run. Kuhn said
that
they have contacted
the CVS maintainers and have offered
to pay for development of features
that would allow GPG signing of commits
through CVS -- making it much more difficult for changes
to be inserted unnoticed into code held in a CVS repository." << guess how far
this made it, 15 years later.
mircea_popescu: (linux weekly news being
the qntra of 20 years ago, except much
the fuck shittier, in no small part because fucking retarded editorial
team)
mircea_popescu: bout as effectual as
the sand dollars i fished at beach last.
mircea_popescu: cuz obviously,
they still jack off under covers.
they just do it amateurish-poorly.
mircea_popescu: what ~the fuck~ prevented
them from saying "loic has
the autority
to make an alt-logger, fuck your mother." ?
mircea_popescu: anyway, it's just...
they EVEN HAVE
THE HOLE WHERE
THE GEMS WOULD GO. everything, everything, except not making it work.
mircea_popescu: but
they don't say "by his lordship's authority, gna".
they say "phylosophycally!!!!" which is a keyword with
these functionally iliterate morons, and it's a keyword for specifically "this is where real republic instrument would go, if it existed as it does but we heretically deny"
mircea_popescu: i mean, understand
this fucking nonsense : on
the very savannah gnu org/maintenance/WhyChooseSavannah/ page
they list "Gna!:
http://gna.org/ - philosophically compatible with Savannah, run independently by other people; located in France" ;
this is
there BECAUSE his lordship loic
the schmuck is doing it.
mircea_popescu: if
the "there really wasn't anything
there
to begin with" was at all controversial, such banal yet obvious yet
disavowed matters would sink it anyway.
mircea_popescu: o, you guessed it!!! "securedrop, for
to journalists wanting
to wikileaks"
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform
the lulziest
thing is how all
these born-in-65-foss-blabla
tards end up ALWAYS on
the fucking forefront and speartip of usg.blue isms.
mircea_popescu: menalone, a very expensive bioengineering project aiming
to emulate
two ounce mice in 200lb hominid hardware.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform of course. and yet IT STILL DID BETTER
than fucking "savannah",
the cvs pharmacy in 31401 georgia.
mircea_popescu: somehow
the lesson
that "anomie-freedom's worse
than ANY KIND of slavery" still unlearned, 20 years later. "why did savannah fail ?" "dunno" "but you said somethings about it, dorky. where's
the review of
them ?" "
not me!"
mircea_popescu: "Some months ago I helped
to launch Savannah for
the GNU project because I felt
the need of a collaboratively run platform. With friends and co-developpers we are now re-writing and packaging distributed development hosting software.
The idea is
to be able
to install and operate a SourceForge-like site within hours. Savannah will run
this software at
the end of
this year. At first it may have less functionality
than SourceFor
mircea_popescu: and so fucking following until we fall
the fuck over, how can
this dork live with himself.
mircea_popescu: ed it with real people, but instead permitted a buncha weasels
to run with it, not even under
the supervision and signature of an established lord, because my mother dropped me repeatedly on hard floors during breastfeeding]."
mircea_popescu: ker data /export/sf_tracker_export.php. Few people are aware of
the later because it is undocumented.
The export page explains how
to use scripts
that don't exist anymore; implementation of facilities
to ease project extraction was stopped.
The developer community is exclusively made of VA Linux employees and a few people who are asked not
to disclose
the current code [and I didn't declare
this a strategic objective, nor fill
mircea_popescu: "The move
to non-free software was
the culmination of a series of steps designed
to lock users in.
There never was a way
to fully extract projects from SourceForge [and I never said anything about
this because I, rms, am a moron unfit
to lead a L-shaped ambush, let alone an entire world], but efforts were made in
this direction--then
this year
they were removed. At present
the only
things you can get are

mircea_popescu: RM and in May 2009, Augustin was appointed as
the chief executive officer."
mircea_popescu: ber 9, 1999, during
the dot-com bubble, VA Linux became a public company via an initial public offering and Augustin,
then 38-years old, became a billionaire on paper. In August 2002, Augustin left VA Linux and from September 2002
to December 2004, he was a partner at Azure Capital Partners, where he helped lead Azure’s investments in Zend
Technologies and Medsphere. In 2005, Augustin joined
the board of directors of SugarC
mircea_popescu: anyway, for
thread completeness : "In 1993, Augustin founded VA Research (later VA Linux and Geeknet), while a Ph.D. student at Stanford. Augustin was a Stanford colleague of Jerry Yang and David Filo,
the founders of Yahoo!. Filo and Yang introduced Augustin
to Sequoia Capital, which provided Augustin with venture capital. In November 1999, he launched SourceForge, a collaborative development environment or "forge". On Decem
BingoBoingo: If
the
town custom was fucking dogs... convenient, features, might as well!
mircea_popescu: "might as well
this as
that, it's all
the same anyway."
mircea_popescu: fucking beautiful. "it
turns out we weren't about anything in particular, so when convenience rears its ugly head..."
mircea_popescu: "Because of
the convenience of SourceForge, many Free Software developers have come
to
take
this collection of features for granted, and would be reluctant
to go back
to
the old way of doing
things. Unfortunately,
this means
that when SourceForge itself
takes a
turn for
the worse, it
tends
to pull Free Software developers down with it. "
mircea_popescu: meets future wife on bus, doesn't go over (BECAUSE HAS OPTION NOT
TO, SEE ???), never meets her again.
mircea_popescu: all
these zero-cost options dorks keep writing
to
themselves.
mircea_popescu: so, where's all
the rms "hey folks, make blogs, rms-wp is over
there", is what i wish
to know.
mircea_popescu: the foregoing has
the disadvantage a very good man is still smarting from it ;
the latter however IS FUCKEN POISON.
a111: Logged on 2018-09-29 23:35 mircea_popescu: but as far as
the foundation is concerned -- if all it does (ALL IT DOES!!!) is stand up
to
tell me "oh, we can't follow
the keccak because reasons" ima put an end
to it in short order.
mircea_popescu: get
the fuck out of here. in adult world
there's such a
thing as "this
tall
to ride".
mircea_popescu: you know,
the items discussed, "efore SourceForge, such
tools (bug
tracking, cvs, web, support, forums, polls, news, etc.) were available individually, but few developers used many of
them
together"
