diana_coman: what puzzles is a. why would someone buy it from nsa to then sell it cheaper (admittedly it is possible though, anything is possible) b. if it's underpriced how is it worth it to spend *time* in order to get somehow possibly (not even surely) a slightly cheaper price

diana_coman is genuinely rather puzzled on this one
shinohai: Longest click I have ever done was for

diana_coman yeah there's also no "catching up with the chain", one can turn eulora off for five years, turn it back on (maybe have to get a new client, till we freeze that down) and be ready to go. but then again the cost of having to check the blockchain isn't THAT terrible, we bring up back new nodes all the time.

diana_coman: well, some might of course, but it's again a matter of...hoping they will, sort of thign
mircea_popescu:
diana_coman aha. most of anything left standing were parts of that. "greaua mostenire a epocii ceausescu"
spyked:
diana_coman, but giumale retired. btw, I know he made a Lisp machine clone back in the 80s. the hardware might be lying around somewhere in the faculty.
spyked: hi
diana_coman. somewhat. I resigned a year ago, but I'm around for various teaching stuff and wasting time on PhDing.

diana_coman: neah, it says it can't even see it then; will try another time with the adacore 4.9
mircea_popescu:
diana_coman amusingly enough, i recall a few... dozen moments of this "advent of technology" spring. like you know, Коммунизм = советская власть + электрификация всей страны.
deedbot:
diana_coman rated andreicon 1 << actively searches for more exciting things in his life
mircea_popescu:
diana_coman and what are the dead but just a dream we dream.

diana_coman: well, I can't see how slow accumulation of concession to shit leads to anything other than "chemically bonds to it" at some point
andreicon: i'll meet you guys and gals later. ofc
diana_coman, i will also register a key as soon as i reach my home office
mircea_popescu:
diana_coman so let her father bring men home rather than write inept shit (which nevertheless was better than whatever europe had, or kamchatka for that matter, peninsulae nobody heard of)
mircea_popescu:
diana_coman indians tho, these aren't wanna-be anglo muslims.
mircea_popescu:
diana_coman i know of no culture outside of the chtonic-inspired anglos who deemed pregnancy as a negative.
mircea_popescu:
diana_coman when i was about three, they took me to a doctor. it was like a kinda mysterios affair, and it made no sense as i was not sick. the doctor asked me what do i do if i'm hungry ? and i told him i eat. he then asked me what do i do if i'm sleepy, and i said i go to bed. that was it, and everyone was impressed because apparently no fucking kids ever have any sense left.
Framedragger:
diana_coman: yeah, not too geographically ambitious for the time being, i'faith, hm
trinque: recalling the thread with
diana_coman the other day, this'd be the difference between competent women finding places of authority and female culture saturating social arrangements.

diana_coman: the only trouble with the emerging image of academia as "the land of how opressed" is the fact that...I knew some old real academics too; and they...had fun; also! lol

diana_coman: and yes, some of them were dead

diana_coman: fwiw I talked to former army pilots; they had lots of pictures of lots of males as you might imagine; the punchline was...WHAT FUN WE HAD
erlehmann:
diana_coman of course, the goal of war is not do die for your country, but to make the other basterd die for theirs
mircea_popescu: anywya, maybe we can talk
diana_coman into borrowing us a manager class.
diana_coman: <mod6>
diana_coman is a warrior; nice post <- out of the saddest necessity really; thanks!
mircea_popescu:
diana_coman s/oh-so-funny comments/ever sadder epitaphs/ ?
mircea_popescu: dude this
diana_coman poem thing is pretty fucking epic.
mod6:
diana_coman is a warrior; nice post
mod6: speaking of ada stuff. i did get horsecocks to compile just fine with the changes that were discussed previously with
diana_coman ☟︎ mircea_popescu:
diana_coman yeah, and that whole "because fuck your race" thing.
trinque:
diana_coman: girl's also part cherokee; apparently they'd solve the cognitive dissonance by saying "ah, her? she's got a man's spirit!" and leave it at that
shinohai: Perhaps because
diana_coman is equal to any 10 other women I know.
shinohai: !~later tell BingoBoingo Saifedean Ammous (The guy ripped apart by
diana_coman one Sunday in logs ) is upset that my latest Qntra did not attribute his quote. Please advise how to proceed.

diana_coman: oooh, yeah, did that playing with water and ~all pots and pans and anything else we could find, yeah; and he plays a LOT with water & ice, pouring&smashing etc
mircea_popescu:
diana_coman yup. also in the strange properties of materials. i once spent a half hour pouring water from one reciipeint to another.

diana_coman: BingoBoingo, the cucumber plant was actually quite a hero: made dozens of cucumbers BUT it grew them to full size/ripened them *one at a time*; not an easy task apparently to make wholesome things even under rather favourable conditions as it were

diana_coman: and yes, 4 year old child routinely helps in the kitchen too, not a big deal; cutting stuff, mixing dough etc
a111: Logged on 2017-05-25 09:35
diana_coman: fwiw I have yet to meet someone who cooks for themselves who doesn't consider they cook "very well" (or better); it's when cooking for others that one can really tell whether they are good at it or not
diana_coman: mircea_popescu> the parallels with
diana_coman eating away at the ps atrocity for minigame are striking, by the way. <- ha, catching up with the logs and I wanted to say precisely that!

mircea_popescu:
diana_coman you know, ~everyone there wears their rucksacks in front like total fucking retards (the REASON that type of bag was invented by zee germanz, and the reason it became popular esp for schoolkids, is that it leverages the weight to improve posture. IF you weart it correctly.)

diana_coman: it's ok, I hear they got now a CS conference in Buenos Aires and they get therefore to steal participants' laptops,it's all a craze
mod6: how's it goin
diana_coman?

diana_coman: I saw this thing in action; and brighter kids effectively perking up when they finally find someone sane to laugh at such idiocy, call it by its name and actually help them understand something; in eternal words "it actually MAKES SENSE now!!"
a111: Logged on 2017-05-17 13:47
diana_coman: it certainly fits it perfectly, yes; and overall it also fits the more general pattern: the moment everyone gets to do it, one can tell that "it" is a. only a pale shadow of itself, b. going to shit full-speed ahead anyway
hanbot:
diana_coman i got myself up to date just to quote my last problem with the character in the logs, ha. thanks for asking, and i'll see to it this week for sure. meatland has been fairly crazy these past months, i'd love to have a software problem (she said naively).
phf`:
diana_coman: i think smell of food is different in home kitchen vs industrial kitchen like at a restuarant
mircea_popescu:
diana_coman let's distingush "smell of food" as in ie mp cooks for three and "smell of kitchen", as in, restaurant. it's not the smell of any specific food just like the sewer is not the smell of any specific ass. yes some people like some asses, but that's as far as it goes.
mircea_popescu:
diana_coman seems entirely likely the item is onlyt there because in their experience ustards perceive its presence as "professional"-ing.
