down an extraordinary system of rules for his children.
mircea_popescu: and just because you can't see where this problem breaks shit
down from where you sit doesn't mean it's not gonna. it will.
v_diddy: if you want the systems to behave sanely, you have to rewrite everything
down to the wire protocols
trinque: seems like it creates an immediate market for hack tools like what they use to take
down drones
mircea_popescu: "college trains libertards" simmer
down, there isn't anything for kids to read that'd yield any other result!
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"
assbot: Logged on 29-10-2015 17:05:20; davout: which conveniently boils
down to "we need safe spaces to stop these micro-agressions"
mircea_popescu: there's a difference between getting to see the koh i noor and knowing lord x owns it. or, to quote popfictionikia, "Another consideration was education. Before the late 1950s and the advent of the stately home business, very few working-class people had seen the upstairs of these great houses; those that had were there only to clean and serve, with an obligation to keep their eyes
down, rather than uplift them and be

☟︎ phf: i like this one, Personality and learning FORTRAN. (1985), i almost want to trick that one
down mircea_popescu: don't look back in anger (look forward ; and kill someone) and don't look
down in envy (look upward ; and kill someone).
pete_dushenski: upper class too inaccessible, so what's left ?
down.
down's what's left.
pete_dushenski: though since he's firmly in the middle class, he ends up looking
down to the LOWER class in envy
punkman: cryptome's title entry: "DoD escaped detainee blimp with limp rudder
down near Bloomsburg, PA"
mircea_popescu: "Finally, in every conflict, the ones you can win and the ones you can't, unless you really want to fight you must always give the other person a saving-face way to back
down. No one, especially nowadays, wants to walk away in shame, they'd rather die, or kill you. Angry Mom stupidly made this public, and so she has no way to back
down unless you, as the more powerful person, the one with understanding, give her one
phf: jurov: making llvm eat the whole is a better way to preserve sanity, because then you're dealing with fixing source, rather then hunting
down opaque binary issues.
mircea_popescu: "WHEN Mr. Wallerstein started at Thomas Jefferson, he was in no mood for austerity. He borrowed so much that before the start of his first semester he nearly put a
down payment on a $350,000 two-bedroom, two-bath condo, figuring that the investment would earn a profit by the time he graduated. ...Mr. Wallerstein rented a spacious apartment. He also spent a month studying in the South of France and a month in Prague --
mircea_popescu: they have that much in common with
down syndrome sufferers, it is true.
mircea_popescu: for the record, using the original latin phrases over their vernacular "just as good" later "equivalents" is not merely and not just talking
down to some (the "intellectual" equivalent is nonsense, but let's ignore it).
pete_dushenski: "the point is Latin hasn’t been in common use for a long time outside of the Holy See. using a Latin phrase for which there is an exact equivalent English term is little more than the intellectual way to talk
down to someone."
ascii_field: 'Yes, I know about source-based distributions, you can pipe
down now. First, they’re too tiny a minority to affect my thinking. Secondly, it would be trivial for their build scripts to include a clone and pull.' << there are a few gentoo packages that actually do this. banned from my box.
ben_vulpes: i have never successfully run
down what heresy chevron puts into their techron
mircea_popescu: except ss knows enough about this to not want to touch it, so the aspirational
down kids over at dod get a chance to shine.
mircea_popescu: "Just a piece of advice. If you are ever arrested, make sure to ask for a jury. As for two juries. If your lawyer says the words "bench" and "trial" at any point in the same paragraph, flee to Argentina. Those 12 idiots, imperfect as they are, are one of the only things protecting you from a top
down, hierarchical, classist, flow chart wielding government clusterfuck that has no time, interest, or money to deal wit
jurov: lxr

BingoBoingo: punkman: I think they got the season long storyline thing
down now after trying it last year.
BingoBoingo: <mircea_popescu> there's a huge gap between the split and agriculture. you're missing the voice, pastoral life, a lot. << A lot, but fuckers didn't write shit

down for that flick.
mircea_popescu: <mthreat> search is
down because linode is rebooting due to a Xen security thing <
ascii_field: so this is more like the 'pay' you pay in auschwitz, work until you drop with the hope that you get moved
down, and not up, in the chimney queue ?
mircea_popescu: <funkenstein_> But oh, I saw 100million written
down so, lets just believe that shall we? << that's not even it. the tlp article has the story, and it's rather obvious : they ACCEPTED to be extras in HIS movie. that's what it is. rihanna, of course (of course ? madonna didn't do that for ritchie, not really ; angelina jolie didn't do that for brad pitt ; moreover nobody told them to get the fucking crazy out of their
funkenstein_: and related later, how many people do you know that paid for a recording of Jay Z? But oh, I saw 100million written
down so, lets just believe that shall we?
mircea_popescu: it's really hard to go through america's main cultural product and not come to the notion that the country was born with
down syndrome.
mircea_popescu: what are they gonn a do, ask the us navy to shoot
down the harasser ? :D
mircea_popescu: now, how many times have you heard of something like this going

mircea_popescu: incidentally, i had the most ustardian experience in argentina yet. so i want planters. small shop
down the street, mostly closed, someone's house. finally it's open, i pick the planters, they're 90 each. i say i want 5, they only have 3. i scratch my head and leave.

pete_dushenski: " Al, I didn’t know Betty had any relatives in town. I saw her with what must have been her nephew
down at the bar. They look like they have a very close relationship."
pete_dushenski: "If you say you are an artist, but you make little money from selling your art, can your work be considered a profession in the eyes of the Internal Revenue Service? In a ruling handed
down late last week by the United States Tax Court and seen by many as an important victory for artists, the answer is yes."
mircea_popescu: When it came
down to it, they saw their choices as either telling the truth and risk me being sent home or filing fake incident reports to keep me placed there. I was an easy check every month. The only work they had to do was write false incident reports and fill out some paperwork in order to get paid. If I were to be sent home I'd be replaced by a kid that would most likely have real and serious behavior issues. If
pete_dushenski: mircea_popescu: aww, ethereum only
down 1% today ? << sun's barely up.
mircea_popescu: so let me get this straight, you want to give people too poor to litigate, too stupid / desocialized to talk to the landlord and too scared to act the option "you can either pay 100 to the landlord as deposit or 300 to me and unlike the landlord I PROMISE to give it back (maybe), except im not anywhere near you and you can't burn my house
down" ?
☟︎ pete_dushenski: i set my screens at 5`500k in the daytime and dial it back to 4`100k before bed to wind me
down mircea_popescu: "This generation, this, The Dumbest Generation Of Narcissists In The History Of The World, they hate heroes-- except dead ones, they're ok, and superheroes are ok too, people with magic or from other planets-- but human heroes are anathemas, they want to tear them
down and show them to be regular mortals, flawed-- and the best is if they can catch them being hypocritical, nothing brings an impotent narcissist to orgasm

BingoBoingo: If widely deployed this change would eliminate the last remaining known vector for nuisance malleability on SIGHASH_ALL P2PKH transactions. On the
down-side it will block most transactions made by sufficiently out of date software."
mircea_popescu: "The force for this change isn't coming from safety or ethics. Neither is it activism. If you see any group advocating influentially for change in a media they don't own or control, you can double
down and split the 10s, the dealer is holding status and quo. No change is possible on someone else's dime, and if what looks like a supermodel approaches you with a microphone and a camera crew, you should run like she's Joh
mircea_popescu: when they can be compared, z80 loses. where they be meaningfully compared, common ground breaks
down.
mircea_popescu: but back to our point of interest : your expectation that "z80" and "pentium" costs can be meaningfully compared breaks
down.
mircea_popescu: but outside of your pinning it
down, it does not exist.
pete_dushenski: might as well get it over with, burn the mess
down already. but no, too stupid. too much 'hope'.
mircea_popescu: "Most of that development is iterative rehashes of what everyone else has already done, though. This is a red flag to me. Social networks, messaging systems, click analytics, GIS frameworks for click analytics, and lots of other things called "analytics" but really boil
down to adtech, adtech, adtech, adtech, and some more adtech, and marketing campaigns about campaigns about adtech."
mircea_popescu: what the everliving fuck. closing
down "status of women" offices is a fucking must for women's rights.

mircea_popescu: "If this seems implausible to you, which it must-- that's exactly the point of it-- consider the following extreme analogy, which surprisingly will be easier to understand, which is also the whole point: Say your father raped you repeatedly for a decade. Hold on, slow
down, it gets worse: now you're 40, and he shows up asking you for $2400 because, and I quote, "you have a responsibility to take care of me." There h
ascii_field: 'Here's the other side's example: when they talk about raising taxes on the rich, why do they pick a "low" point and push it higher? Should the highest rates be at $250k/yr? $300k? Another way of doing it, which is precisely why they cannot do it, is start at the top and move
down. "We need $1T. Ok, top five guys pay 90%. Not enough? How about top ten guys pay 90%. Not enough? Top...." I'm not advocating this or
