mircea_popescu was considering making a similar item too, it's a pretty good idea.
☟︎ mircea_popescu: spyked phf uses a similar (handrolled, unpuiblished) item ; meanwhile lisp languishes in a sad marsh of unusability.\
mircea_popescu: you ever hear that russell butade, "the problem with the world is that the idiots are cocksure while the smart people are full of doubt" ?
mircea_popescu: there's a subtle difference in drivers ; both claim to be the same one but are not
mircea_popescu: it's such a pleasure to see half a dozen people work as a team without needing to blather.
mircea_popescu: my god these people, when they're on point they're on point. 4 new tyres + 5 new pneumatic tubes, off and emplaced, alligned and everything, like 20 minutes including the drive there.
mircea_popescu: what, am i to surmise we're not as cool as snowden and strauss-kahn ? or rather that the empire sunk to such a depth it is not even capable of finding mendacious prostitutes/chambermaids anymore ?
mircea_popescu: it's a wonder the rape accusations aren't flowing, come to think of it.
mircea_popescu: how about you know, truly ancient lulz, anyone recall tiberius angry canadian dood ?
mircea_popescu: oh, you mean other than the "i have my spurious "bitcoin is scamming" verbiage all over reddit " guy ?
mircea_popescu: in any case -- as long as 1) "own www", the whole approach just failed.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform cuz there's no evident link from trinque to michael trinque for idiots who don't understand what gpg is, too lazy to click to your blog or read enough log to see stanislav, there's ~nothing "interesting" on mircea popescu besides a bunch of butthurt idiots complaining of ~same nonsense, and so on.
☟︎ mircea_popescu: kinda what tranny-ism, as a pars pro toto representative of pantsuitism, is all about : an undefensible pile of ineffectual bullshit.
mircea_popescu: !~later tell spyked "Note that this article is not meant to replace the actual thing. If you want to understand FFA properly, go read FFA. And just so that we understand each other, that DeGrasse Tyson guy is an imbecile" << no links ? what did links ever do to you!
☟︎ mircea_popescu: joy doth not appeared to be killed any ; but the "hey, things that occur must conform to my mental model" look on old hag's face is fucking typical.
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo dun worry about it ; sign the contract, explain about the cash, all is well. what gear did you have physically present i forget ?
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo yeah, a) go sign contract ; b) did you actually get to see our rack yet ? if not now's the time to insist ; c) explain to them that money's coming in coming week one way or another, iirc they understand why ?
mircea_popescu: aite, anyone wanna do the above 3.5k wire and pocket the bitcoin implied by current lulzexchange ? before i give it to rando latino via bb's meatwot.
mircea_popescu: this is a whole rack being discussed here, i dunno if you realise.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform so you're here managing trinque's quotes ?
mircea_popescu: eh, it's unlikely they do it any other way. alright then, so the draft plan here is, get the rack, 900 + 900, and the 20/200 option to start with, for a total of $3223 payable i ncash which you can actually raise by going in the local market ?
mircea_popescu: so either i'm misunderstanding some4thing or there's a typo in this post : 20/200 mbps (downlink/uplink) ie the server can RECEIVE 10 times as much as it can SEND ? this is backwards from practice.
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo well ok, and what came of the bank sweep ?
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform dude... first off you're looking at symmetrical for some reason, nfi why, second off no bw is free, contrary to what "cheap vps" outfits might've advertised to you and thirdly didn't we do this a few times before already ?
☟︎ mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo what's the trade situation there, can you get a pile of cash for btc locally ?
mircea_popescu: hey, they paid me i dun recall how many mns exactly to fuck their mit boobs, what's another fraction.

mircea_popescu: so how do they explain stephen, afaik he's like, object of cult there.
mircea_popescu: the insanity of using two different letters for the exact same item ... but anyway.
mircea_popescu: thje logical step was to just get rid of it altogether.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform damn, tyou got it backwards. ~î~ is to turn into the previously never used â inside words. (previously, only usage of â was for România. but rather than JUST TAKE THE DAMNED THING OUT ALTOGETHER they ... contrived to "make use")
mircea_popescu: "so as tyo make it moar latin". as fucking if, and etcetera.
mircea_popescu: i had no idea this is how you say horse gallop in russian. it's same in romanian too!
mircea_popescu: nepenthe, you know, the one item that was ever in true demand.
mircea_popescu: onward hops the plastic horse, and there's a circle of dirt under its feet on the wooden square...
mircea_popescu: it's a very third worldy thing, to want to be the sad horse turning around the peg. so much so they actually sell this insanity here, as toys.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform yes, one is good and the other not so good. no argument.
mircea_popescu: but yes, once they invested in the aproiori fixed point, they can only walk around the room.
mircea_popescu: or, for that matter, fg. it's how it fucking works, on, off, on...
mircea_popescu: apparently did some work on smoothness, i had nfi, but anyway.
mircea_popescu: speaking of which, recently /me introduced briefly phuctor to whitebeard, mentioned bernstein smooth integers speedup, got very confused headshake and an invitation to point to where did this wonder happen ?! in s. n. bernstein book. "not that one, a newer one, american" "oh."
mircea_popescu: whereas most serious math people of my generation are from topology and the rest of the doomed attempts to resurect the beauty of geometry.
mircea_popescu: can prolly tell by the very functional-analytic and numeric methods bent ; and by the set-theoretic underlying representations.
mircea_popescu: possibly also i'm like... hey, i recall this idiocy from 2012, seriously rando just discovered bitcoin today, is retracing 2012 with all the ingenuity of virgin at the altar ? how fucking endearing, /sarcasm
mircea_popescu: just different levels of lazy, as i'm not done with log yet and you are lol.
