mircea_popescu: i expect most didn't even know why the fuck they're there.

mircea_popescu: well, judging by the fact that it was socialist war not imperial (as the historical term) war, i would conjecture the latter.

asciilifeform: based on the type of man that at the time existed, and ~came out~ of the war -- i would conjecture : the former. rather than 'for her demoocracy'

mircea_popescu: and in turn neither can i.

asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: unfortunately i can't answer this, my ouijatron is broken...

phf: esthlos: i was wrong, i remember looking at knuth&plass implementation in elisp a decade ago, but it's not in mainline. incidentally you could wire own k&p into normal-auto-fill-function..

mircea_popescu: "i shouldn't have to strip to get an A, i shouldn't have to suck cock to get a job, i shouldn't have to fuck the customer to keep it, i shouldn't have to..."

asciilifeform: that last one , refers to 'HULP, i'ma gurl, fix this..'

mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2018-01-04#1763687 << the example used notwithstanding, i suspect this is a large portion of what goes on in, eg, http://btcbase.org/log/2018-01-04#1763821 "minds". ☝︎☝︎

mircea_popescu: no, i know girl that thinks this is odd.

asciilifeform: notice how most drawn human figures even today -- unless, i suppose, drawn by streicher -- have smaller, than in life, nose. but nobody thinks this is odd.

shinohai: Now I am left wondering if there were ads all over ancient Greece selling dick-shrinking pills.

mircea_popescu: well, i thought it was being proposed as a forward looking heuristic.

mircea_popescu: asciilifeform that many problems admit retrospective solutions is not at issue here ; the whole content of "i suspect the notion of "shouldn't even be having" is 100% pantsuit wank." is that "alien problems" are an artefact of the retelling of history (esp if with a purpose) rarther than of the making of history.

asciilifeform: i can't speak for the good doctor newton. but asciilifeform specifically ~did~ target , for extermination, 'git' & related idiocies. ☟︎

phf: i thought kahn topo sort is trivially extendable with cycle detection? you just put another flag on the node for which you check

mircea_popescu: i will.

mircea_popescu: i understand how the ideal model is supposed to work.

asciilifeform: 'i gotta pay people to stand and hold this wall up'

mircea_popescu: well since you squeeze me, here it is : i suspect the notion of "shouldn't even be having" is 100% pantsuit wank.

phf: wait, are we talking about the same thing? i thought conversation is about pairing patches with seals, how did cycles come into the picture?

mircea_popescu: consider the greater problem here asciilifeform : i give you a set of 1mn units of blockchain. you are to reconstruct their order.

esthlos: ah I realized a fucked up the seal handling, thanks mircea_popescu

mircea_popescu: (not a great lisper myself, but it seems to me here he got caught in the "since i won't be implementing the posix and gnupg bs yet, im not going to put the thing dependent on tyhem at its right place either, because i wanna fuck myself over")

mircea_popescu: nevermind that, i'm asking about his algo

phf: well, i for one love his sicp-ish captured context lambda classes!

asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: nope. it was resolved in the correct way ('give the vtron the obvious hint , i.e. sanely named files , that turns the problem from o(n^2) into o(n)' )

phf: asciilifeform: i'm not sure you can even scheme without a bunch of srfi's, the first dozen establish a subset of common lisp standard

a111: Logged on 2016-01-18 15:58 ascii_butugychag: the O(N^2) instrinsic runtime of unknown-patch-bag+unknown-sig-bag is something i realized from the start

mircea_popescu: am i the only one who doesn't deem n>1k improbable ?

mircea_popescu: because yes, normally i have the above linked mask applied on the inanity the world produces.

mircea_popescu: asciilifeform many things i use are deliberately set up so either it works or it fails. in thsi case "couldn't make text flow sanely - aborting".

mircea_popescu: why the fuck am i scrolling 2.5x

esthlos: haha i used 55

mircea_popescu: i never had a problem with trilema!!11

mircea_popescu: i don't get it, if your ;; is followed by 8kb of text this breaks something ?

mircea_popescu: but hey, baby-did-its-first-travel folk think going from france to spain travel! similarily to how "i crossed state lines! went from upstate ny back to city THROUGH VERMONT!!!11)

asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: i dun even know if it is 'good sportsmanship' to count individual langs. oughta count families, perhaps ? slavic, germanic , roman

ReadErr: i only know english, was never motivated to learn another

ReadErr: I dont doubt that either, ive seen many esl speakers out perform americans/brits

mircea_popescu: shit, there's no orc, there's no fu, i gotta ediut this

mircea_popescu: phf i thought it meant "toxoplasmosis is a kind of meeting of the minds also!" tbh.

mircea_popescu: phf i can't understand why this would be, after all ubuntu came about as an attempt to bring linux to the masses.

phf: ag3nt_zer0: there's a general lean against ubuntu here (i mean it's a piece of shit), but it should work, though you're going to run into pointless library conflicts and such, that an expert can resolve on sight. need sight though

ag3nt_zer0: it was a month ago so don't have the specifics anymore but system was telling me that i needed a number of libs... I dl'ed and installed but the libs later in sequence were telling me they needed the earlier libs which were already supposedly installed. I tried the process several times and am happy to do it again if you think this is the best way but I was thinking maybe ubuntu isn't the most pragmatic for this?

mircea_popescu: asciilifeform this "i gots to see what goes on in engine" thing is very present, though. /me watched a half hour of "mad max, the version with the crazy south african hottie who got black gangraped so much in that beautifully democratic country, she's all about cutting out her tits and painting her face into wall-like appearances, EXACTLY like the native girls of the accursed africa -- and just like them, will NOT think of ty

ag3nt_zer0: ok in my attempts to set up trb node I encountered a snag trying to install gpg keychain to verify sigs... tried a bunch of troubleshooting tips but no luck. i'm using ubuntu 14.04 - thinking of starting fresh. what is best linux dist for trb node?

mircea_popescu: i'd like to meet this esl tard who reads jezbel and works on his car himself.

ReadErr: i would love 20/20 foresight lol

mircea_popescu: for instance when i linked you to http://btcbase.org/log/2017-12-31#1761560 i specifically meant you to read the whole thing lol. it explains why "why an enterprising individual hasnt come along and made it more accessible, or rather go for the volume game". ☝︎

ReadErr: mircea_popescu: ohhh it highlighted the first line i didnt think to keep reading

a111: Logged on 2018-01-03 17:58 mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2018-01-03#1763108 << i had to google the name, ran across principally the picture of an ugly orc thug in one of those university bonnets. why the fuck is a 18yo monkey wearing collegiate apparel, not nearly old enough ?

ReadErr: but I wonder why an enterprising individual hasnt come along and made it more accessible, or rather go for the volume game

mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo which, believe it or not, is why i said veyron!

ReadErr: I suppose money does open any door at some point

BingoBoingo: <mircea_popescu> ReadErr when's the last time a veyron/fighter jet etc was advertised TO YOU ? << The last time a Buggatti was marketed to me was about ~45 minutes ago when I went to Tienda Inglesa for Chocolate milk. Here Bugatti markets... High end asado tools.

ReadErr: mircea_popescu: I dont deny that it happens but rather wonder why its not advertised and sold

BingoBoingo: 4SRS!!!!! Who could have predicted I'd move to ALTgentina

ReadErr: I could send them $ and it would be here

ReadErr: if I wanted a kidney tomorrow

ReadErr: BingoBoingo: I mean in the sense that

phf: mircea_popescu: i was trying to do a quick likbez on why the linked article might be funny, i believe we used to do a disclaimer, for expert entomologist only

mircea_popescu: i know what's in the paste lol.

mircea_popescu: towards the end i wanted to link a primer, much in the vein of "here's how to eulora" or gentoo or etcetera : "here's why you are intolerably dumb and how to stop being intolerably dumb ; a guide for pantsuit chickies".

ReadErr: i figured it would be become/sell/dispose

mircea_popescu: i expect things are going to only get better, for us. for everyone else -- http://trilema.com/2016/i-am-firmly-against-universal-franchise/

mircea_popescu: ReadErr the funniest bit, to me, is that this lets-call-it-challenge to empire comes from the exact area fallout predicted, "drugs and slavetrade" (to not say i predicted, mexican cartels finally strong enough to take usg apart). the reason this is funny is because the collapsing roman empire was challenged over -- "the right to counterfit"!

ReadErr: thats why i was curious how an ideal world would work

ReadErr: mircea_popescu: i wasnt thinking about it like that, more so how much overreach does the current bighand have over the little hand

ReadErr: https://twitter.com/i/web/status/948934683408072704 The attorney general will scrap Obama-era rules that mandated hands-off approach to states' marijuana-friendly laws, source says http://cnn.it/2AozLtv

mircea_popescu: i thought it leaked days ago, "keep open drm bank via one address at max cycle" ?

mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2018-01-04#1763664 << i dunno man ; stuffed slut has a lot more to do with real woman than the unstuffed pantsuit version. ☝︎

BingoBoingo: BWAHAHAHAHAHAHA https://www.insidehighered.com/views/2018/01/04/professor-learns-student-reading-book-he-finds-reprehensible-opinion << "So Al had read the Bible at my suggestion and also, I remembered, my bible, Anna Karenina, and now he was reading Mein Kampf. Our happy reunion had gone down the sewer."

ReadErr: but if i sell you a loaf of bread for a dollar

ReadErr: i would have thought it would be a redistribution

danielpbarron: yeah i don't know how else to put it

danielpbarron: i can see a world in which local banks print notes backed by bitcoin, but the bitcoin itself is not backed

ReadErr: i am not yet, no

ReadErr: nah i didnt until now

danielpbarron: ReadErr, i don't know that we want to "overthrow" the usg. more like, do our own thing in opposition to them, and eventually hang the bureaucrats

asciilifeform: http://btcbase.org/log/2018-01-04#1763557 << at this point i'm quite convinced that you can't 'fix clim'. any more than 'fix' winblowz ☝︎

asciilifeform: the funny bit is that gabriel_laddel came pretty close to building something like cuntoo (i.e. a sanely depythonized gentoo) ; which would've been useful and respectable

a111: Logged on 2018-01-04 02:12 gabriel_laddel: FTR: what I bring to the table is the closest thing to LISPM available, and direction + productive discussion for those already down the rabbit hole. Non-alices need not apply.

lobbes: (I figure this is because most here, already own one or more)

lobbes: I think that may have been the first non-game item auctioned with an actual sale

lobbes: k. should I set up a new invoice or just resend the !!v ?

trinque: lobbes: give it another crank; I've updated him to the casing he uses

ReadErr: ohh I see

phf: "doctor, will i be able to play violin after surgery?" "i don't see why not" "are you sure?" "i'm certain" "that's odd, i couldn't play violin before"

ReadErr: I need some LSD to be able to read this

gabriel_laddel: I did. Nobody grokked. ARSTTEP.

gabriel_laddel: ticket is like240 so I'll see about signing bonus and then first weekend of job

danielpbarron: i'll even buy you dinner

danielpbarron: but i can meet wherever as long as you give me some notice

danielpbarron: i'm in westbrook

danielpbarron: no assurance i'll be in ct in 6 months

danielpbarron: i'm in connecticut

gabriel_laddel: danielpbarron where are you located? I'm in cincy getting a job now to pay for some flights to see people like you

gabriel_laddel: thats a damn good idea, I was referring to DanG who hosted the youtube video tho
