mircea_popescu: you have to "interpret" and "read it with feeling" and" this isn'
t what liszt meant" and bla bla.
adlai: there's no a-priori reason why fork proponents can'
t stake their reputation on pgp-signed contracts to buy up their alt after it's launch... reminscent of the $20 XPY floor
☟︎ adlai: psztorc: the problem with basing this rather-necessary tool on TC/HM is that the latter doesn'
t exist yet...
adlai: mircea_popescu doesn'
t own woodcoin, either.
adlai: "hard limit" = MAX_BLOCK_SIZE === "I don'
t accept a block larger than X", soft limit = relevant only for miners === "I produce blocks up to X"
adlai: thestringpuller: compare to shakuhachi tradition, where a song isn'
t "yours" until you've a) tweaked out your own version, and b) taught it to your students
thestringpuller: it wasn'
t until someone was bored enough to write the thing down that you got Fake Books and stuff of the "American Song Book"

assbot: Logged on 12-01-2016 13:32:43; mircea_popescu: "f course, a full charge won'

Good fucking luck with your new disposable car!"

mircea_popescu: "i know... we'll offshore everything to china and live off a '''service economy'''. then we won'

mircea_popescu: he did, yes, but i won'
t count it because at his time (40s) he had no other options.
mircea_popescu: the difference between a thinking man and a hack is that a hack goes "hey, i can'
t explain this without a blackboard"
mircea_popescu: don'
t idly suppose you're better than the greeks just because you have more maggots eating more cans of spam.
BingoBoingo: Tomiii: Well, the general downsides of ECC. At least in Bitcoin the public key isn'
t even public unless an address has spent a transaction.
danielpbarron: "If it's worth upgrading, it wasn'
t worth using in the first place." (TM)
BingoBoingo: Generating GPG keys that don'
t suck is hard because RSA encryption is decrypted by division. Too easy to divide, falls. ECDSA in Bitcoin gets more breathing room for now because not as straight forward.

☟︎ pete_dushenski: though in all seriousness, if the dumb bitches pretending to be 'drop-in daycares' and 'nannies' don'
t start returning phone calls and text in a timely manner, IF AT ALL, i'm a seriously cut their useless lives short.
pete_dushenski: BingoBoingo: the kid knows his ashtanga from his saatva and not a lot besides. trudeau's as innocent as a butterfly, which is why chix dig him and dudes couldn'
t care less. he's nowhere near as much of a strong retard as the commie premier cunt running alberta for the next 3.5 years
pete_dushenski: BingoBoingo: at least i don'

pete_dushenski: "GM has put a 60-kWh lithium-ion battery that weighs just just 960 pounds into the floor of the Bolt. As previously announced, the Bolt's 288 cells will be able to go over 200 miles on a full charge. That full charge takes nine hours on a Level 2 EVSE thanks to the onboard 7.2-kW charger. Of course, a full charge won'

☟︎☟︎ mircea_popescu: the computer ain'

phf: bringing this into char discussion makes no sense whatsoever because spec explicitly says you can'
t phf: you can'
t make any statements about chars using eq. eq is a special beast used to test ~von neumann~ identity. and all the comments in the spec are related to that. sometimes (eq 1 1) but (eq 123123 123123) is not
mircea_popescu: i don'
t see why you think this answer is not retarded.
mircea_popescu: isn'
t this contrary to everything you been saying to date ?
mircea_popescu: while the idea that "letters aren'
t numbers, sit down" is sound,
phf: the only redeeming quality in this case, that there aren'
t better standards available, except for maybe Ada (i've not looked). you end up with trade offs, or hard constraints that make the result non-portable. a positive aspect of cl standard is that you get reasonably similar behavior on very wide range of hardware, but i agree that things could always be better
mircea_popescu: and no, i won'
t be looking for the beatles records past the why records.
mircea_popescu: the fucking point of having an alphabet is that no, it couldn'
t move.
mircea_popescu: they aren'
t ordered ? so "a" > "b" returns undefined ?
mircea_popescu: the secret to winning the war isn'
t to make the other motherfucker die for his country. it's to discourage this motherfucking from thinking he can walk up the wall.
mod6: I guess this does actually effect us a bit -- i mean, lets say we wanna do some math modeling or expound upon some properties of something fourier whatever, and send it to the ML... now you gotta have it in ascii otherwise you can'
t sign it.
mircea_popescu: i couldn'
t care less you use sigma or the integral. what matters is the foreword
mod6: i dunno? sig = [
T(e1)
T(e2)
T(e3)]
mod6: and then when it doesn'

mircea_popescu: i don'

mircea_popescu: my brain doesn'

mircea_popescu: i don'

mircea_popescu: if i see void alfun (1, 2, 3, 4 .. 26); ima think you can'

BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: I haven'

mircea_popescu: which by now is so pervasive even ged-educated nigger in the ghetto knows enough to scream "you don'
t know what it's like"
mircea_popescu: the only reason she exists is the perhaps well intended, but also castrated inclination of educated males to go "oh, i wonder what the hyeroglypsh mean, can'
t be discarded out of hand"
mircea_popescu: i don'
t think the postmodern symbological deluge has any sort of match or point of comparison.

phf: my impression of traditional education is that when everything doesn'
t fit in your head, you continue cramming it, until in the flash of insight, a way of restructuring the tree comes to you. in this case notation allows for a caching mechanism. somewhere on a blackboard there's a cluster of meaning, that you no longer have in your head, because head is full, so having that cluster contain higher density of information allows for a more

☟︎ mircea_popescu: now : i do not propose that this is either better, or obligatory for anyone else. whoever can fuck whatever bottle they most like. but i also can'

ascii_butugychag: mircea_popescu doesn'
