asciilifeform: BingoBoingo: girl, since you mentioned, said, approx, 'this is dumb, and tell'em to piss off'.
asciilifeform: exceedingly difficult to fit both a little clock face and my face in 1 frame. ( doesn't mircea_popescu already have a picture of my mug , lol )
asciilifeform: i'ma write an actual essay about time, when i figure out an actual rhythm worth writing of. currently all i have is a 'triage', to actually track what eats resource, and cut off deprioritized ( mainly , real-time interactions... ) items when running short.
asciilifeform: http://btcbase.org/log/2018-02-23#1785703 << some discoveries re the idiocy of the enemy are so astonishingly, riotously vexing of the very imagination, that they are difficult to believe. like the time that an ex-nsa-grunt stuck sharing an oar with asciilifeform on a slavegalley, insisted that usg until late obummer reign did not have a canonical Official implementation of rsa, and that when such was finally ratified , it was from a☝︎
asciilifeform: it is difficult to talk about waste, aha, given what is on the box already..
asciilifeform: that part makes sense. but conceptually they're different ops. and could even live inside same binary but invoked variantly to simulate being different ones, a la busybox say.
asciilifeform: the job of decoding a rsaoid and getting a hash, and the job of hashing a 100GB thing and getting the orig hash to compare to, as part of verifying a sig, are conceptually quite separate. really oughta be separate proggies, per 'unix philosophy' or even any reasonable successor to it
asciilifeform: knowing only what's been said so far by mircea_popescu , it'd seem to me as if the story would have ended similarly, even had the dope never been discovered. unless the meth was somehow the reason for the entire town having 1 surgeon left.
asciilifeform: but did it produce a sober doc , or empty hospital .
asciilifeform: well 'in charge of town' suggests a possible active ending to the story
asciilifeform: so then i cannot resist to ask, how did mircea_popescu solve the surgeons
asciilifeform: i recall the story of the addicted surgeons. was there a ro trilema on subj, or only the 1 thread here ?
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: for sake of argument, what means 'fix' ?
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu is missing out on a great career as psychoanalyst ?
asciilifeform tuned in , ate logs, unfortunately hasn't just now the time to answer the quality flameage, is in the middle of a quite intricate job atm
asciilifeform: i did not break tooth today; but on other hand the city finally showed up to fix the gas leak i reported 3d ago , and they have dug a moat around my car, on sides, to do it...
asciilifeform: i'ma play in the snow, ben_vulpes , also bbl.
asciilifeform: ( then possibly mp&friends would be more interested in a subscription..)
asciilifeform: trinque: to crib of mod6's idea earlier, you could additionally (or alternatively) buy my share of isp.
asciilifeform: diana_coman: i cannot offer anything with which to disagree.
asciilifeform: trinque: the flavour of 'emo' is unfortunate, but i for instance have an oath to mp that i have not been released from. and is the only reason i am still tuned in. the disposition of snsa after asciilifeform's pending anathemization , is a strictly practical matter, rather than 'pulled dick' thread.
asciilifeform: lobbes: but do they ? the old serene republic, of venice, died to a man. and here we are, picking up the weapons☟︎
asciilifeform: shinohai: one strength of the republic is that it will continue to exist even if there is only 1 d00d left, even in a burning tank where only the gun still worx.
asciilifeform: lobbes: my work will continue to be published in the familiar place where it was published previously. not very hard to find. and folx who wish to discuss it, will be able to do so in my 'castle' ( #loper-os if mp amicably un-squats the fleanode login; otherwise a new one, to-be-announced )
asciilifeform: diana_coman: a painfully pedantic description of the new isp will be published. and available for commentary.
asciilifeform: lobbes: i have enough respect for mircea_popescu to respect his decisions; when he does not want to coauthor with somebody, there is no reason why he oughta have to. and so when he asks for asciilifeform's resignation as snsa cto, i will give it to him.
asciilifeform: BingoBoingo has even prepared ( not quite yet unveiled however ) a public www ; with prices and other useful info.
asciilifeform: trinque: might you be interested in becoming the first subscriber ?
asciilifeform: asciilifeform, at the same time, took it upon himself to go and repair the item mp has proclaimed that he had broken, at own labour and (considerable) expense.
asciilifeform: and as you know 'customer always right'
asciilifeform: if you ask the d00d, i fail at moar or less errything, lol
asciilifeform: trinque: i enjoyed having mp as a coauthor, making phuctor, FG, various other pieces. but i cannot give the man what he wants, at the rate at which he wants it, this is unfortunate but fact.
asciilifeform: grr pastefael, 'Das war ein Befehl! Der Steiner-Angriff war ein Befehl! Wer sind Sie eigentlich, dass Sie einen Befehl, den ich gebe, zu missachten wagen?!!'
asciilifeform: y'know how it goes, 'Okay, here we go: Das war ein Befehl! Der Steiner-Angriff war ein Befehl! Wer sind Sie eigentlich, dass Sie einen Befehl, den ich gebe, zu missachten wagen?!!'
asciilifeform: ready to be anathemized with asciilifeform , trinque ?
asciilifeform: hanbot: i do not enjoy to overstay my welcome where not wanted. mp and you invited me in 2013 to the party, can just as rightfully uninvite .
asciilifeform: with this in mind : ben_vulpes + mod6 : when you reimburse me this week please do not make use of trinque's walletron. trinque is quite dear to me but it is my current understanding that my trinquewallet will cease to function when i am formally anathemized , and i do not want any coin to become trapped in it.
asciilifeform: hanbot: understand that one of the things i ~like~ about mp, is that he doesn't slide back on things. so hole or no hole , it is what it is.
asciilifeform: hanbot: is your interest in bisp as a potential subscriber ? or as backseat driver.
asciilifeform: and while i have the microphone, will say : i'ma carry on exactly same work after properly proclaimed heretic and excommunicated by mircea_popescu , as prior.
asciilifeform: at any rate i'ma to bed. and if mircea_popescu wants to subscribe a slot (or moar) in bisp, oughta say; and his biznis is appreciated; if not -- other potential subscribers invited to solicit for ben_vulpes's courier service.
asciilifeform: ben_vulpes: i like to see folx finish what they start, eh
asciilifeform: can you picture stalin 'eh go to bed, what's the hurry' lol
asciilifeform: also goddammit why so slow, mircea_popescu , i'm waiting for the 'de-lording' bullet, staying up past bedtime☟︎
asciilifeform: there comes a time, lobbes , when enzyme uncurls, stops enzyming.
asciilifeform: lobbes: as for 'submitting', apparently it's trickier than it'd appear, i 'submitted' to the fuhrer for , what, 4yrs, and still thrown out in the end like used napkin
asciilifeform: lobbes: you also want to get drummed out?
asciilifeform: wait is this a q for asciilifeform ? or for mod6 & ben_vulpes ?
asciilifeform: it so happens that asciilifeform has purchased a 50% stake in bisp. and specifically with one condition: that mircea_popescu (named, concretely) will not be a back-seat driver there.☟︎☟︎☟︎☟︎
asciilifeform: so mircea_popescu , having sold his stake, and not even yet a subscriber, wishes to decree re what is done at bisp.
