mircea_popescu: felipelalli prolly ask fluffypony i
think he's
the only one here keeping an eye on monero.
mircea_popescu: ftr, for
the new souls :
torrents were originally dismissed on
the strength of how bad
the shit / code was originally, as "this'll never work"
nubbins`: so... shrug. maybe it's like
the rtc --
there for
the user
to add

the rings of saturn

to see a complete re-write of
the client
nubbins`: there's no mounting holes on
this pcb for

mircea_popescu: but
there's a vague possibility whole shebang's
there and disabled in software
nubbins`: altho it looks like
they're connected

mircea_popescu: now on
the other hand if
they happened
to you know, do
that unspeakable crime aaron schwartz kid's guilty of...
mircea_popescu: "Sat across from a serious man. He’s sunken himself into
the soft underbelly of a woman. A fox,
true 1960 pussy. Her silver hair knotted in a fat bun, loose upon her neck. "
ben_vulpes: anyways, point is
that it's difficult
to learn
to lead from followers.
assbot: Logged on 28-03-2015 11:54:19; nubbins`: "that's such an /american/
thing, hey? 'mentoring'? movin'
to a big city and getting yourself a mentor or five?"
mircea_popescu: ben_vulpes
their wot died under consumerismo-socialism & peron.
ben_vulpes: first, you had
to learn
to lead by following at
the leads practicas,
then
they'd
teach you
to lead,
then eventually you'd get
to go
to
the milongas.
ben_vulpes: nominally, at one point in history, you weren't allowed
to lead at a milonga until you'd been more or less given permission from
the other leads in
town.
ben_vulpes: i was actually musing on
the absence of any leads-only
tango practicas in
town
mircea_popescu: dude your line's not even been
to any masculinity conferences.
ben_vulpes: somehow i doubt you're going

to see you do
this
to some poor cabbie

to guess
the name of
the street my office's on ? its a food item.
ben_vulpes: it's
the only word where
the l's are pronounced?
ben_vulpes: by
the way what is up with billinghurst
mircea_popescu: ben_vulpes
that's nothing, he's permeating harem speech. yest i was waffling over whether
to go
to icecream place, girl goes "well not like we gotta go and get
the imensatron necessarily". ie, we could get a smaller
tub. but no - imensaTRON!!1
funkenstein_: somebody was
talking about a "hosed bus" when i needed
to pick one
funkenstein_: actually
that is how
that username was born :)
mircea_popescu: funkenstein_ ftr, since im here my brain has decided
to multivocalize all j's as h's
too, for good measure. and as you logged in it just proposed "hosed" as a possible interpretation of your user.
mircea_popescu: nubbins` blame does not attach
to fault, blame attaches
to agency.
nubbins`: mircea_popescu it's not his fault
that conspiracy
theory concepts are good metaphors for
the actual missed points
Chillum: a hand crafted index of
the internet?
ben_vulpes: yeah, let's bring back
the directories!
mircea_popescu: ben_vulpes
they still use algorithmics for
the outskirts. which is why
the "long
tail" revolution happened in seo.
