mircea_popescu: maybe if he took teh red pill ? do you think wikireddit could help him ? if he were more... less... i mean... if he where the fuck's that gunwitch dood.
mircea_popescu: diana_coman i think it's evident women are to blame!
diana_coman: ah, "sorta girlfriend", can be; onth I did stumble upon all sorts of reports from the other side: "my bf is all the time on his xbox, wut do" and so on
mircea_popescu: i don't think she knows.
mircea_popescu: relieve. So even the idea of having to sell everything is killing me inside and stressing me. This is unfortunately causing problems with my (sorta) girlfriend since I just can't bring myself to get into anything sexual while it's on my mind. I feel bad that I am letting my personal problems affect her, but I don't know how to get myself into a better situation."
mircea_popescu: in related lulz, "Financial Struggles & Relationships, Journal Entry | 3 minutes ago : So I'm moving soon and am trying to scrape together enough money to pay for the move and for school fees so that I can get enrolled and back to classes. In order to do this, I basically have to sell all my gaming stuff since I don't qualify for any loans. The problem with that is that gaming is my life and pretty much my main form of stress
diana_coman: I never heard it; dic says it's same as "a capitula"; possibly in a sponge-fight I'd gather
diana_coman: but I suppose it's about the same thing by now anyway
mircea_popescu: it's not merely a shame that "such problems" are continuously "identified" by idiots, but that the scream for help universally goes unheeded. if you think ~about~ such things as upspin.io, i don't mean if you're "working" at them or anything like that, if you merely think ABOUT them you're certifiably SUTO. get the fuck out, completely, right now, it's a worse addiction than krakadil. parts of your body are falling off!
a111: Logged on 2017-10-06 06:06 mircea_popescu: btw, is that the new "african american" pc term ? i seem to recall chapelle making a big deal out of wanting to be called a "custodian" in one of those hennifer-lopez level horrifyingly bad flicks he keeps churning out.
cazalla: i imagine that would get struck down on account of it being a NATO state
cazalla: BingoBoingo, who knows, time will tell i guess, not sure what else to do with myself besides this idea anyway
cazalla: not that poland would be some paradise but step up from here, and i think kids would benefit from another language, young enough to pick up polish as first language instead of english
cazalla: will be easier getting it for the kids, i'm thinking convince missus we go for 6 month holiday, then buy and just stay
cazalla: the leaving part... i had downed almost a bottle of vodka, would like to buy a place there and take the kids with me but leaving them would be a bit much
pete_dushenski: "At some level, the $450 million number is so big as to be meaningless. If I told you that the painting was bought for 60,000 bitcoins, would that make it easier to stomach?" << lulzomatic commentary on said auction from felix salmon https://tinyletter.com/felixsalmon/letters/nota-bene-10
pete_dushenski: aha you sneaky chemist you. making me recall my organic chem from uni! i actually really enjoyed that class. it was one of my better marks in first year. b!
BingoBoingo: pete_dushenski: I am pretty sure most of us thing "levo"
pete_dushenski: http://btcbase.org/log/2017-11-19#1740754 << am i the only one who can't read "dex" without thinking "dexedrine" ? phf ? ☝︎☟︎
a111: Logged on 2017-11-20 00:56 asciilifeform: btw, for my fellow rotakus ( shinohai , pete_dushenski , ben_vulpes .. ? ) grep -i '^foobar' ro_eng_ascii.txt finds word foobar.
zod_: i mean https://moronlab.blogspot.ca/2010/01/urbit-functional-programming-from.html?showComment=1263570771214#c6454142774827414532
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform it can't do the right thing if i changed the explanation.
asciilifeform: but i'd be curious to hear what various folx ( phf , say ) have to say re optimal data structure for dicts.
asciilifeform: i dun see it as a blocking operation
asciilifeform: i find it interesting, entomologically, what the anglotards did with the idea of dictionary. they turned instrument ~for learning language~ into one ~for avoiding learning language~ -- the result is google's 'translate'
mircea_popescu: i like this.
mircea_popescu: anywauy, i didn't mean "same treatment" in the sense of ipaization, i meant same treatment in the sense of translaty/explainy flatfile.
mircea_popescu: i can't think of one ; except for imports (see eg http://trilema.com/2010/care-sunt-iq-tau/#comment-123116 margot, read in ro in the french manner).
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform let's try this. make up a girl's name and i'll tell you how it sounds in romanian. then diana_coman spyked alex_c whosoever else can confirm or infirm.
mircea_popescu: i suspect it is. no proof until code written of course.
asciilifeform: i'd settle for getting the orcograms back in 'ro_eng'
mircea_popescu: so i guess we can skip the ipa bit for now
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform anyway, for some reason i thought dex included a pronounciation guide, but it seems mostly absent/unreliable.
a111: Logged on 2017-11-19 02:00 asciilifeform: caveat x2 : no îțâșă . but it was missing in the original, i did not remove it. ascii-only, in the derp's original, e.g. 'uşă' turns into 'usa'.
asciilifeform: this also. but i was speaking of http://btcbase.org/log/2017-11-19#1740588 ☝︎
asciilifeform: the one i genesised ? it's been de-orced, so to ipaize gotta be re-orced
mircea_popescu: now, i would much appreciate if you took the current bs and ipa'd it properly (it's not THAT hard, ro ipa set is narrow and unambiguous) ☟︎
shinohai: Would be greatly appreciated to have plaintext item, asciilifeform .... I also prefer to simply grep word I am looking for whilst studying.
asciilifeform: btw, for my fellow rotakus ( shinohai , pete_dushenski , ben_vulpes .. ? ) grep -i '^foobar' ro_eng_ascii.txt finds word foobar. ☟︎
asciilifeform: oh hah i can finally read that.
asciilifeform: i was stuck on a plane with that d00d, pretty far gone case
mircea_popescu: well, archeologists of the future are welcome to resolve this, i ain't digging.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform i thought that was re me de-backing altcoin once it become obvious can't work
mircea_popescu: i don't recall that part ?
asciilifeform: yea that was when i learned it
mircea_popescu: i remember that, cuz i was liek "burn down all ms employees" and he was like "shit, i'm in trouble"
asciilifeform: i suppose compared to, say, microshit -- yes
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform and that helps anything ? i'd rather marry the whore the brothel uses to advertise than a different, "secret" one.
asciilifeform: i guess.
mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2017-11-20#1740838 << i dunno, what explaining'd be there ? "they offered a job and i... took it". pretty sure his previous spot sucked arse, guy was getting stress blisters. family man, gotta provide, what. ☝︎
mircea_popescu: good to have a blog, i routinely forget shit i did, then i end up confronted with it and im like... hey. pretty cool!
asciilifeform: i nearly forgot the item with the diff trick.
asciilifeform: i assume sumthinglike 'bear trap'
a111: 2017-09-11 <mike_c> congrats! I did that a long time ago too. Good luck with it.
mircea_popescu: can conceivably mix into paradise i guess
mircea_popescu: this is insufficient, i saw molasses before, not paradise.
mircea_popescu: in other wtfs, girl opens jar, a scent of paradise fills kitchen. i go over to investigate. the item is helpfully labeled : melaza. ie, molasses.
mircea_popescu: besides, im pretty sure i saw all of these in ro printed matter.
asciilifeform: i meant it was prolly considered 'unprintable' by the '80s prudes
asciilifeform: i suspect it's an ancien-regime work
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform lots of good ones missing. "i-a picat fata" (his face fell off) ; "a dat cu mucii-n fasole" (he snotted the refried beans) ; "iti pica fisa ?" (does the coin inserted into your coinslot actually fall through the spuriously complex machinery inside your otherwise empty skull to make the necessary contacts ?) ; "a freca menta" (mintrubbing, absent ?! gimme a break!) ; "ai morcov [in fund] ?" (to have a carrot [up
asciilifeform: oh btw i cut some truly egregious nonsense from orig item : it had a coupla dozen 'dates of life of great people'
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform how many lines the expression item ? (tech i will asume worthl;ess sight unseen -- bot didn't write a ro tech dictionary and ~nobody else was qualified to)
asciilifeform: in other pipeline, the 'proverbs' item is hopelessly bitrotten, i'ma jettison it. the 'tech' and 'expressions' otoh are ready, dedupped, and flipped ( so as ro->eng )
mircea_popescu: i presume you want ?
mircea_popescu: so now, upon proceeding with this item of yours, i obviously reopened that 7 year old directory. wherein i found...
shinohai: Apparently I missed that one
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform here's a lulz for you : before making the fain@polimedia item discussed in logs recently ( http://btcbase.org/log/2017-10-28#1730110 etc) i actually attempted a... ro dictionary full rewrite. was called "adex". ☝︎
asciilifeform: fwiw i'm not wholly convinced re 'whole spittoon'
a111: Logged on 2016-11-29 14:43 phf: we had a thread when diff was first discussed as a way to do patches (i think maybe before even v), where i was erring on the side of no unicode support on the grounds that if we decide to support unicode we have to, to borrow asciilifeforms, drink the whole spittoon
a111: Logged on 2016-11-29 14:36 mircea_popescu: speaking of above article, can i get a commitment to never signing any V material which includes any non-ascii characters ? BingoBoingo diana_coman hanbot trinque mod6 danielpbarron mircea_popescu mike_c asciilifeform davout ben_vulpes phf jurov
a111: Logged on 2017-07-22 21:51 mircea_popescu: so i joined the whores going to the gym. my first time in a gym at that! it was discovered that yes i'm a lot more powerful than they are, but i have neither the flexibility nor the endurance.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform amusingly my next line being http://btcbase.org/log/2017-07-22#1689192 way down. i dun ask anyone to promise nething do i ? ☝︎
mircea_popescu: btcbase.org/log/2015-01-30#998185 dissidence, ie i will raise arms and kill not just your standard, but your children along with it. literally.
a111: Logged on 2016-02-25 17:12 phf: i've been mulling over that question with logs. fwiw, entire log can be kept in memory for analysis, annotation, whatever, 180mb as utf-8 byte arrays. with unicode strings takes up twice the memory on 16-bit cmucl, and ~~4 times on 32-bit sbcl. i'm not yet convinced that transcoding everything you get into string and then transcoding it back to a bytearray onto the wire is the best strategy
asciilifeform: it's why i haven't genesisated the 15MB of new item yet
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform aw shit, did i just entice you to break form ?
mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2017-11-19#1740662 << it is as best i can tell a ~complete~ list. which yes, it's how romanian sinonymy works, you get 1k for whore etc. ☝︎
mircea_popescu: also, my policy re "diacritics" as they're called is that i don't write them, but i don't actually bother to take em out from text i touch. so there's all sorts of ro literature i fixed on my blog, where it's quite evident what the original author contributed and what i put in, because the rotards are very much into this "currently correct romanian notation is alphabet + 5, down from alphabet + 12 a century ago, and THIS MATT
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: i extracted 4 other ro dicts from the turd : 2 'technical', 1 'expressions', 1 'proverbs'
a111: Logged on 2017-11-19 05:19 lobbes: Currently going down the headless-browser path ben_vulpes suggested. Looking into phantomjs atm, which seems like it could do the job. I have an old craptop I'm thinking of using as the proverbial 'public toilet' to house it on. (This is the same craptop I was planning to put a trb node on. I put a spanking-new ssd in there but then realized that the ethernet dun work anymore; wifi only. May be a good use for the thing to just be a turd server in
asciilifeform: there were a few others in same spirit, but i've misplaced'em
mircea_popescu: no, sitting around derping about "the future, man" with a buncha self-professed "lesbians" (cuz its easier than admitting you're too lazy to put out) dun cunt. i mean count.
mircea_popescu: when's the last time someone who HASNT engaged in "inappropriate sexual behaviour" twenty years ago actually got laid ? that's what i wanna know.

lobbes: http://btcbase.org/log/2017-11-18#1740385 << thing is, if I wget the archive.is page with the -pk option on, I get turd-soup in many cases. For example, "wget -pk --user-agent="" -e robots=off --wait 1 http://archive.is/MiJ5U" yields a handful of .pngs and nothing else. Versus just wget-ing the actual trilema item with the same options yields a perfectly usable local copy ☝︎
asciilifeform: http://btcbase.org/log/2017-11-19#1740613 << if sumbody posts a ro-to-en ( or i'd much prefer a ru, say ) dict that is less radiationdamaged -- i'll use that , and throw the current one out. until then -- it's ~the~ dict. ☝︎
mircea_popescu: quite exactly. "i dunno if there's any difference, but if i weren't slutty enough to be a whore my marriage may have not ended". doh.
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: I dunno if there's much difference, but if I was not drunk to be ex-drunk the grad student retardation may have been stickier
mircea_popescu: i prefer to think of you as an ex-drunk than as an ex-gradstud
a111: Logged on 2017-11-19 02:06 asciilifeform: and you can use it offline, with grep. which is why i even wanted one.
mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2017-11-19#1740595 << this, very muchly. most of the problem of "but mp, i have no way to search BY DEFINITION!!1" is compensated by escaping from the idiocy of book. yes there is way to search by definition, that's what log search is even used for 90% of the time! ☝︎
asciilifeform: i deduplicated it and reversed ( sorted by ro ) before posting , 148469 lines . but some of the 'words' can be only with difficulty called words.
asciilifeform: and you can use it offline, with grep. which is why i even wanted one. ☟︎
asciilifeform: caveat x2 : no îțâșă . but it was missing in the original, i did not remove it. ascii-only, in the derp's original, e.g. 'uşă' turns into 'usa'. ☟︎
asciilifeform: caveat : it's a spoil of war, i cannot guarantee the contents, could have some qty of any degree of nonsense in there.

pete_dushenski: lol art school was almost 20 years ago now, but i guess not never
shinohai: Well certainly better than *some* things I have seen. I at least didn't go "wtf am I looking at?" lol
pete_dushenski: ya, i was thinking of desk scenario
