mircea_popescu: im pretty sure
the woman is
thinking, and im pretty sure
this is what.
ben_vulpes: more along
the lines of draining
the battery, asciilifeform.
ben_vulpes: the more distracted by sexual inequality, gender inequality, income inequality, and
the more attention
they're paying
to
the management of
the epic bureaucracy so built,
the less
time and energy will be devoted
to
the impending conflicts.
ben_vulpes: i had a massive change of heart at lunch
today
ben_vulpes: "at least
the cause has been moved forwards!"
cazalla: oh i forgot
to mention, can no longer ssh
to it or anything
cazalla: while i await danielpbarron's response, anyone want
to suggest why
the pogo flashes green after following his guide after a reboot?
trinque: man
that chick... I bet she smells bad;
they always do
trinque: that's about all
the monkey-football
time I have for
today
trinque: hm, boost wants bzip2 even
though it's been instructed
to not use
that
mod6: <+jurov> my mom was using "husqvarna" <<
they make my favorite chainsaws / best chainsaws imho
☟︎ nubbins`: phun joke for people who work in offices: wander over
to helpdesk and say "man, i found
this usb stick in
the parking lot and now my computer's acting /crazy/"
trinque: nubbins`: oh yeah, big
time
trinque: an ass hair,
the same from a perspective
nubbins`: in fairness,
the work behind presenting you a bash prompt is absurdly complex 8)
trinque: I used it long ago working on a parental controls
thing at a shartup
trinque: boost is absurdly complex
tho
trinque: "...failed updating 3
targets..." BOOOOOOST.
nubbins`: heh. i'm actually just
trying
to feed in my own
tar right now
nubbins`: "By default
this override file is named local.mk and located in
the
top directory of
the Buildroot source
tree, but a different location can be specified
through
the BR2_PACKAGE_OVERRIDE_FILE configuration option."
nubbins`: <+ascii_modem> nubbins': linux with disabled mmu id... msdos!! in
the bad sense <<< omg
this is why i shop here!
mircea_popescu: that way,
the "willingness
to do exam" is less divergent.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform
the notion one even gets a choice in
that matter is pernicious.
mircea_popescu: trinque in general nature has well designed
things : junkies in withdrawal are ineffectual.
mircea_popescu: lmao! most expensive mit in
the world. also only place in
the world where mit grads can not use a battery
to light a bulb.
mircea_popescu: What does
that mean for U.S. employers hiring people born since 1980? Goodman notes
that hiring managers shouldnt overestimate
the practical value of a four-year degree.
True, U.S. Millennials with college credentials did score higher on
the PIAAC
than Americans with only a high school diploma (albeit less well
than college grads in most other countries).
trinque: asciilifeform: no, but of course all pollutants come
to
the party
trinque: one
thing I wait eagerly
to see is when
those run dry
trinque: I'm
trying
to find a figure on
the number of USAians on psychiatric meds
mircea_popescu: but when 2025 rolls around and late 30s/early 40s dumb fat fucks inquire as
to why we're fucking
teenagers
mircea_popescu: in any case, it's for
the nine year olds we're even building all
this wot bitcoin etc stack
ben_vulpes: actual problems
to cut
their
teeth on.
mircea_popescu: anyway, human populations are not linear.
the current
twentysomething/late
teens are completely discardable out of hand, like so much rag.
mircea_popescu: well... "gayness",
the faux cultural homosexuality
the us came up with
to
try and avoid facing
the actual problem
trinque: and
that is largely due
to
terrible upbringing and
terrible diet
through formative years
trinque: mircea_popescu:
the simple instructions bit is as much mental illness as it is literacy
mircea_popescu: Altogether,
the
top U.S. Gen Yers, in
the 90th percentile, scored lower
than
their counterparts in 15 countries,
the report notes, and only scored higher
than
their peers in Spain.
mircea_popescu: "Not only do Gen Y Americans lag far behind
their overseas peers by every measure, but
they even score lower
than other age groups of Americans."
mircea_popescu: When
the results were analyzed by age group and nationality, ETS got a shock. It
turns out, says a new report,
that Millennials in
the U.S. fall short when it comes
to
the skills employers want most: literacy (including
the ability
to follow simple instructions), practical math, and hold on
to your hat a category called problem-solving in
technology-rich environments.
ben_vulpes: the honor of a few at
the
top. maybe. if
they get out and come here.
TomServo: ascii_modem | canary << was hoping
this would be mentioned. So what is
the value? zilch?
mircea_popescu: what, you
think i don't like apple because of its hairdo ?
ascii_modem: canary << mega-lol, apple killed
their canary. who noticed, who remembers now ?
ascii_modem: but yeah for uniquely impoverished archs
there is mmuless linux
ascii_modem: 0 price sensitivity below 10k << false for all common parts.
try it
ascii_modem: nubbins': linux with disabled mmu id... msdos!! in
the bad sense
jurov: and conclusion was,
that any bigger c++ project needs it (or poor reimplementation of it)
trinque: I am well aware, just marveling at what I see in my
terminal
trinque: probably better
to snip boost
trinque: probably lots
to be snipped out of
the boost config
trinque: jurov: just running
the auto.sh
jurov: it may be
the default
trinque wonders what
the fuck python headers have
to do with boost
mircea_popescu: "what's
the most important
tool in
the arsenal of
the security consultant ?"
mircea_popescu: TomServo incidentally,
they being your machines, you can
take a hammer at parts.
jurov: overall, being able
to learn on cheap older stuff is nice
to have
