asciilifeform: as i understand gabriel_laddel has 3-5 yrs to live, if typical dose.
asciilifeform: i betcha the d00d know what he got into.
asciilifeform: now i'm curious
gabriel_laddel: BingoBoingo do tell since clearly you know more about clean mexican meth than I do.
gabriel_laddel: or something. but I know I've not seen it yet.
BingoBoingo: <gabriel_laddel> but beyond that, I was applying to accelerators with this company because I don't want a real job << Sometime at a "real job" would be good for you. Work at BingoBoingo store, call it "field research" if that makes Brian in the head feel better. Show up, bust your ass, eat shit, THEN ask yourself "Why wasn't I working this hard for myself before?" ☟︎
gabriel_laddel: asciilifeform palintir is right around corner from me. if I hear them discussing how to track down someone from btc addy over lunch == axe time sword time
asciilifeform: let's rewind a bit back to the last reich -- picture 'i dun wanna hold any diamonds, gold, until the nazis go away'
gabriel_laddel: Oh I think I'll hear fear / desperation in the voice of one of these government people while getting a coffee.
asciilifeform: i'm a connoisseur meself, would like to hear his ver.
gabriel_laddel: asciilifeform anyway I respond it'll boil down to "gut instinct". And that's fine, because we've all got different T levels, peni lengths, brain structures, heights and this determines what you're up for / can do.
asciilifeform: or the 'dpr' d00d, who may as well be dead for all i know
gabriel_laddel: I specifically have no intent to hold btc until after some people get murdered for it
gabriel_laddel: asciilifeform wait what. I intend no such thing
asciilifeform: i'd like to hear where gabriel_laddel intends to put the castle
trinque: not that I see any point in the 300th rehash of gabriel_laddel
asciilifeform: beaten for usd ? check, every 2 wks, every time i get a cheque lol
ben_vulpes: all i see is the same old same fuckin old excuses for not having the readies and willingness to do what it takes to operate a full node
gabriel_laddel: ben_vulpes I'm not afraid, just not particularly adept with guns/poison
ben_vulpes: eh i don't care to engage in these hallucinations
gabriel_laddel: I aim to use btc AFTER that whole ugly period
ben_vulpes: asciilifeform: he doesn't extract cash as far as i can tell
gabriel_laddel: I don't want to hold btc until the inversion happens
gabriel_laddel: but beyond that, I was applying to accelerators with this company because I don't want a real job
asciilifeform: not sure when i last did something where kbd speed was remotely the bottleneck.
gabriel_laddel: I switched from colemak back to qwerty
gabriel_laddel: or maybe neato allows more fine-grained control than I am aware of
asciilifeform: there's an ancient and now-unsupported closed warez turd. and a buncha open sores that dun work ~at all. ( on linux, i dun give a fuck what exists for microshit )
gabriel_laddel: afaict, the lack of a CAD program to input the clean routines is the only reason I get interrupted by cleaners in whatever lounge I happen to be working in
gabriel_laddel: totally hypothetical, I'm just sticking this on the end of "gimme job plz" emails along with some connective tissue
asciilifeform: i dun get it
asciilifeform: i have several, in various places
asciilifeform: and i must disagree, 'neato''s vacuum cleaner worx pretty great.
a111: Logged on 2017-11-28 12:58 mircea_popescu: and speaking of which, http://btcbase.org/log/2017-11-28#1743518 prolly needs to be addressed better than the original "i wouldn't give a shit" : i'm ready to take over the governance of the entire world from the hands of the inept pretenders of today, as of yesterday. the result would be very ~different~, yes, but that's irrelevant.
ben_vulpes: "sekuhara" being the noise little japanese girls emitted in storms of arousal when i played in japan as a youf
asciilifeform: and do i even want to find out
asciilifeform: ( srs q. i have nfi nor have any notion of why i should )
BingoBoingo: <asciilifeform> this is a ssd box, on very reasonable fiber, no less. << I am very glad/sad that asciilifeform's sync from wild experiments are concordant with my own ☟︎
diana_coman: hm, here I have one at 429437, started on 4th October; kind of got almost full data day by day, lol
mod6: <+asciilifeform> 461874 currently. << 492622 :: I'm gettin' closer!
asciilifeform: ( granted i could've filled it up with eatblock in <2days. but it's been some years since i synced 'from wild' and thought 'why not test..' )
asciilifeform: ... looks liek exactly what i thought, most-recent-reorg
asciilifeform: ignoring for a moment the folly of formulating btc-usd as a scalar ( picture if somebody were to show up with a million-btc buy or sell, say ) -- i have nfi what the actual, honest number is , nor any clue as to where such a thing might even be hidden
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform leaving reality aside, i can readily show in a snowglobe model how it's a problem. so, some indians (by which derrogatory term we denote genetically stunted, phenotypically inferior apes with some superficial semblance of humanity) had their "land" token inflated by events into great value cca 1600.
asciilifeform: ( potentially -- lethal, potentially -- uninteresting, i have nfi )
asciilifeform: i'm not equipped to say whether this is a problem
mircea_popescu: all i got for 1k btc was averting this 2017 happening in 2014, let's call it.
asciilifeform: lol at least mircea_popescu had some cuffs for a spell. all i got for 5btc was losing to alphago and watching hitler cackle...
mircea_popescu: one could live comfortably out of all the hazard-for-6-yos items i lose apparently.
mircea_popescu: also managed to misplace a 2ct diamond i used to wear in mah lapel... utter puyi operation i'm running over here. ☟︎
mircea_popescu: you know i managed to lose the pair ?
asciilifeform: lol i half-expected the cufflinks to read 'btc'
asciilifeform: and i'ma save some wear on ye olde kbd, and leave a http://btcbase.org/log/2017-08-11#1697191 . ☝︎
mircea_popescu: na i meant specifically re curl
mircea_popescu: i recall reading this a while backl
asciilifeform: i suspect it's retarded in other ways tho, and will have to be cured in the end
mircea_popescu: http://trilema.com/2016/liberals-what-liberals/#footnote_1_70002 << in which i discover idiocy even has a name. apparently it was CEDR, back in 2016!
a111: Logged on 2017-11-29 07:17 mircea_popescu: i just hope 100k doesn't happen before new year's.
asciilifeform: ( i also haven't fully verified that the self-building mode is able to insert ~no~ spurious deps, in stock gnat )
asciilifeform: there is a mode ( see also log ) where it doesn't insert anything, that is used traditionally to compile gnat itself. but there it hard-enforces adacore's weird style scheme, and cannot be forced not to. i'ma have to patch.
asciilifeform: including the oblig 'hey, i get away with it' 'because you ain't under the microscope'
asciilifeform: i dun need a barrel of green for anything ( the only place i can spend it here, is the veggie market. and at airport they confiscate any over 10k . ) nor is depositolade in usgbank of any use, obummer immediately claims half
asciilifeform: http://btcbase.org/log/2017-11-29#1744060 << lol mats why would i want it in a usg-transparent bank ? ☝︎
a111: Logged on 2017-09-14 17:24 asciilifeform: ^ which does mean that i'ma have to a) audit the binary when ffa built for use in the field b) patch gcc/gnat not to emit DIV
mircea_popescu: i just hope 100k doesn't happen before new year's. ☟︎☟︎
a111: Logged on 2017-11-18 16:02 mircea_popescu: i would much prefer to have a v-root for whatever bios, with the binary clearly laid out, so people with the competence can take it apart.
asciilifeform: and dafuq do i need a suitcase of green for inside usaschwitz.
mod6: i like that better
asciilifeform: anyway i'ma bbl.
ben_vulpes: heh verily i do not remember, 'twas not a concern
ben_vulpes: unrelatedly asciilifeform i saw you mention 'goxlag' a few times recently, is bitfinex not releasing btc?
asciilifeform: granted it's a standard lib, and contains various items like the ( spiffy, but i dun use it in p !!! ) threading system
asciilifeform: i'ma have to do it after ffa/p tho. but really this is ridiculous, the built binaries are not auditable until we extirpate the ball of nonsense.
mircea_popescu: trinque did i mention how great eg http://wot.deedbot.org/0FC17787D364466DC5686B4F31AF6822CA3B400F.html is recently ?
mircea_popescu: rather i expect new name ?
The20YearIRCloud: 0.5 was fantastically generous at the time (It was like $50 if memory serves me right), but like i said, and I could find the chat log, i was (And continue to deal with) idiots on a daily basis
The20YearIRCloud: I'll let em know. For some reason I have t his awful feeling they'll be more apt for that then to take the freebie offered years ago
mircea_popescu: but hey, 0.5 was also VERY generous ; and in general everything i do is. meanwhile the fucktards http://btcbase.org/log/2017-11-28#1743513 ☝︎
The20YearIRCloud: ha ha ha, i actually thought about that
mircea_popescu: i have paid for so many posters... what is this, the pili thing ?
The20YearIRCloud: mircea_popescu: I had someone ask about those posters if they were valid today, oddly enough
mircea_popescu: i've been making candlewax garden of late. shit's fun.
a111: Logged on 2017-11-28 13:28 mircea_popescu: i never quite understood why gardening is universally popular.
BingoBoingo: http://btcbase.org/log/2017-11-28#1743697 << I suspected it was the appeal of contest in attempting to carve out a local space where one tries to out-God the Gods ☝︎
The20YearIRCloud: Not so much, just wondered what happened to the exchange, or if i'm missing something
The20YearIRCloud: I feel special now
asciilifeform: i'm not sold that this fatty was fat. ru signals base happily churned along in cuba until '93 or so
mircea_popescu: "not overrun" but i don't see it sending agents to blow up dept of state trashbins.
mircea_popescu: i don't recall castro making any decision in the kennedy ultimatum, at any juncture.
mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2017-11-28#1743827 << a damn, i missed the big moment ? ☝︎
a111: Logged on 2017-11-27 20:42 asciilifeform: i'd naively expect that adacore's item would be the satanic one, and gcc's fork -- the functional. but so far in no case was this the finding.
asciilifeform: and i dun have any particular warm feelings for either set of derps
a111: Logged on 2017-11-27 20:35 asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: i've cut ffa into 30 pieces, each ~1 pg; -> bl0g article.
asciilifeform: ( i'm rot13 the answ to riddle : gurer vf ab xabja jnl gb thnenagrr na vavgvny jbeyq fgngr gung qbrfa'g dhvpxyl pbairetr vagb n svkrq fgrnql fgngr, be n ernfbanoyl fubeg ybbc (juvpu tvirf gevivnyyl oernxnoyr pvcuregrkg) -- vg vf rknpgyl gur fnzr vgrz nf gur 'lrf vg'f na ac-pbzcyrgr ceboyrz, ohg ubj gb thnenagrr gung n enaqbzyl trarengrq vafgnapr vf abg gevivny?' )
asciilifeform: witness the traditional 'tlp' symptoms of walking around with no inclination to ~try~ such a thing, or anything at all, with own hands, and see why this dun work with any known automaton ruleset ( do i have to say why, or readers already know ? )
asciilifeform: i'll recount an episode recently reported by asciilifeform's pet, on reconnaissance into a heathen pit . two d00dz argued re 'post-rsa crypto'. and one drew forth from his sleeve an erudite wankery, n-th generation stolen from thel0gz! : 'why not cipher using playing field of cellular automaton, say, game of life, initial state as key...'
a111: Logged on 2017-11-24 05:34 mircea_popescu: one day i'll understand how this sense-nonsense alloying works.
asciilifeform: i'll point out, for completeness, the traditional alternatives of: the bottle, and the library
mircea_popescu: all "sawing through the cage" proposals i've seen to date (and a major part of what i do is look for exactly that) consist of either idle wankery (german philosophy school etc) or else "here's how to cut a two inch hole in the wall, stick a paper bag out of there, and duct tape it to the hole from outside". ty... but... this replaces a wall with a paper bag ? "yes, but it goes FURTHER OUT!!" sure, but i still know it like my
asciilifeform: the herdemoocracy narrative is that steam power made clitler inescapable. i dun buy.
