punkman: also, wasn'
t LC_ALL=C needed for consistent ordering in diffs? I have it in mine
jurov: why shouldn'
t i be able to diff files with extended characters?
mircea_popescu: at the time the paris university was starting the entire university thing, the king of france wouldn'
t have traded a middling french province for all of england ; which also he didn'
t.
punkman: asciilifeform: a tenured prof is prolly the closest thing that presently exists in the western world to ~titled nobility~ << I don'
t buy it. Back when tenure was a thing, they wanted to keep professors around until parts started falling off. Now there's an endless stream of "professors", and gotta hire them so they can say "our PHDs get jobs"
mircea_popescu: i don'
t get this : not like you can'
t put encryption on top of a clear channel
trinque: v_diddy: wait this wasn'
t a place I worked with the lotto tickets was it?
v_diddy: he won'
t be able to resist!
v_diddy: farmer who has 10 children 6 of which survive, 3 of which are useful on the farm doesn'
t calculate either.
mircea_popescu: "You will observe the Keisha does not even have the enthusiasm to know what is written on the most important economic documents of her life. "I don'
t know, bipolar, panic attacks, whatever they put on there." She can'
t be bothered to handle those papers, someone else is in charge of that. How attentive will she be to the frier? McDonalds doesn'
t want to find out."
v_diddy: no, don'
t send kids to school. make them put up molding in the remodel. they learn something, the thing increases in value.
assbot: Logged on 18-10-2015 16:46:39; asciilifeform: 'this problem will not be solved for you personally, pray that your grandchildren get to live like people' <--> 'but i don'
t want to have children, i want to live like people ~myself~'
v_diddy: asciilifeform: doesn'
t this thread devolve into "there's precious little market for anything not supported by usg"?
mircea_popescu: Ferrari and now it's only a Honda, but either way, not much time for absences and no time at all for Keisha's learning curve. Keisha isn'
t just unemployed, she is completely unemployable. We can argue whether auto plants should pay $20/hr or $50/hr, but for certain there is no market for unskilled labor at all."
mircea_popescu: also these guys don'
t teach anything whatsoever. they mostly try to be carrie from sex and the city, except without the sex.
v_diddy: i don'
t think pete's actually interested in /building/ the skoolarium
☟︎ v_diddy: BingoBoingo: funny, hadn'
t heard that one.
shinohai: I shouldn'
t kvetch. That shell is really reliable and it isn'
t even my box.
mircea_popescu: basicallt they had a woman in tech. anonymous, as we don'
t know who came up with this "idea", but the cuntcheese stinks through.
ascii_field: data to lower quality so you can'
t see the high-quality data.'
gabrielradio:
http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=29-10-2015#1310923 << tbh, i'm completely oblivious of the indivual players. i don'
t watch the games i bet on. i often place bets on teams i haven'
t heard of. i trust the people doing the analyses, our incentives being aligned. i like to view is as an investment and detach myself emotionally from the games
☝︎ mircea_popescu: "college trains libertards" simmer down, there isn'
t anything for kids to read that'd yield any other result!
mircea_popescu: "Here's an example. Say your essay question is, "describe the causes of the American Civil War." Ok, so far everything the kid knows he learned from Prentice Hall, but something inside him thinks the answer is: LABOR COSTS. Hmmm. Insightful and unexpected, let's see what he does with it. But there's not much he can do with it, there aren'
t many obvious resources to pursue this "feeling" he has. He does what he can.
jurov: but then you won'
t have data integrity checksums, either
mike_c: ;;later tell adlai yeah, I don'
t see why not. I'll take a look at posting it somewhere.
☟︎☟︎ adlai: guy didn'
t even realize it was a sudonim!
adlai: mats isn'
t the one serving a public alphaseeker...
assbot: Logged on 13-11-2014 22:09:24; mircea_popescu: don'
t bother with the wot, i'll neg you anyway.
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: Can'
t even make this shit up
mircea_popescu: Loesser checked it. "Well, now, that's amazing. Multiplication didn'
t impress me too much because it involved integers after all, and I thought trick manipulation might do it. But decimals -"
mircea_popescu: on the other hand, stuff that isn'
t math, such as whatever, "ecology" don'
t even HAVE concepts, at all
assbot: Logged on 29-10-2015 08:32:51; mircea_popescu: this is, incidentally, a fundamental point to be considered for those inclined to interact with the scum (aka, non-qntra reporters), a point which that seduction expert (i don'
t recall which one but was in the logs - something about how he went on a "live" show where the 5 dollar audience bood him on cue) : you do want to control their codes. because you must project your own ownership of reality, an
mircea_popescu: ;;later tell schmidty please fix your connection so you don'
t do a lot of join/part
mircea_popescu: answer : a bunch of ustards will swoop in, pretending the field didn'
t end and insisting field enders are badmkay and raceys on top of everything
mircea_popescu: if i had kids there and they wanted money i would go "you can'
t have a penny until all those atrocities have been burned down"
vulpes_a_hopital: otherwise, the kids have a mother, and if she can'
t outperform the daycare you dun fukked up.
Namworld: Hmm, maybe I'm too stupid to enter a password... but this doesn'
t seem to work.
mircea_popescu: diana_coman quite exactly. "this wand doesn'
t even vibrate, what use is it!"
diana_coman: hence they don'
t like the unfamiliar, full stop
diana_coman: I'd have though it was much simpler than that mircea_popescu: most people don'
t like learning.
mircea_popescu: but other than this, to continue the prev thread, no, you do not have control, in the sense that there isn'
t a magical write-protect bit you set or unset at your will and unless you've unset it nothing can ever affect you.
assbot: Logged on 29-10-2015 17:17:00; ascii_field: is that you DON'
T HAVE CONTROL
Namworld: I don'
t mind testing the game whenever I have some free time.
Namworld: Coinroll hasn'
t seen as much development as I would have liked, but jurov and wao are now on it.
BingoBoingo: <mircea_popescu> but this isn'
t what this is. this is a doctor claiming he's being a contemporary rendition of fucking mengele because "the jews and the dogs expected it" << "Standard of care"
ascii_field: but on the other hand, they didn'
t hang all of germany
mircea_popescu: there is no "resistance through culture", you don'
t get to tell me "hey i knew all along X was a scam, i just promoted it ironically"
mircea_popescu: the mengele who knows he's doing wrong anf the mengele who "doesn'
t" are both mengele.
ascii_field: tlp's point, i think, was precisely that he isn'
t mengele and if he won'
t vivisect the screaming prisoner, he'll take his place
mircea_popescu: but this isn'
t what this is. this is a doctor claiming he's being a contemporary rendition of fucking mengele because "the jews and the dogs expected it"
mircea_popescu: obviously i have no us clinical experience. i also have an apparent inability to represent how this'd work. seriously, doctor says "nope, he's acting out because of X, Y, Z, and medications aren'
t going to fix this" and the parent argues the point ? with the doctor ? just.... how ?
mircea_popescu: "When a kid is presented to a psychiatrist, the psychiatrist is pressured, obligated, to do something pharmacological. If a psychiatrist looked a single parent a joint away from a nap right in the eye and said, "nope, he's acting out because of X, Y, Z, and medications aren'
t going to fix this" that doctor will get his head handed to him by parent or by lawyer. Justice will be done, you negligent elitist."
mircea_popescu: the angle here is that 6 months is a waste of time/resources in the present configuration to go chase that thing. pure scheduling matter, yes, it's valuable, no we can'
t fill the larder with brontosaurus.
ascii_field: can'
t prove ownership without giving it away.
mircea_popescu: not how this works. if you wanna call it nonsense, show where it doesn'
t work.
mircea_popescu: jurov why can'
t it happen you go to neighbour's wife and place an order ?
mircea_popescu: ascii_field the important thing here being that it is not even expensive. it's free. for me. which is a large part of the problem - medieval knights didn'
t get paid in cash nor did they pay cash for the fees.
mircea_popescu: see, why didn'
t I starve once my original meatwot gave out ?
ascii_field: it is a discussion of a very unlikely thing. i can'
t picture why anybody would order this.
ascii_field: 'text' doesn'
t need to satisfy a compiler.
