cazalla: your spambot clearly works if it labels pivoting
to incubating startups as spam
pete_dushenski: cazalla not only did i not realise
that, but your comment was definitely caught up on
the spamhole so
thx for
the heads up !
cazalla: pete_dushenski, not sure my comment went
through but fyi,
the bitcoin center ny is getting into incubating startups if you didn't know already :)
mircea_popescu: heh if only. in fact,
the state doesn't pull all choice into becoming public.
that's an insanely optimistic view of
the process.
the state pulls public choice into meaninglessness, and
then ruins all alternative.

http://www.econtalk.org/archives/2015/02/michael_munger_1.html < "Guest: And
that--I do want
to keep defending Buchanan. What Buchanan's worried about is a monolithic Leviathan. Because he
thought, once you have a state, it will just eat all of
the other choices. It will pull all of
them inside, like a sort of great vortex. All of
the choices will become public because
that's
the way
that states work.
That's
the logic, is
to expand.
mircea_popescu: ironically,
those people like me about as much as us democrats like ron paul.
mircea_popescu: "You beast! You will pay hand over fist, you and
the [Romanian political party]'s newspaper
The Power
that allows you
to shit your dirty shit!
This
time you're fucked! See you in court garbage!"
ben_vulpes: this also entails delegating projects of various scope in different domains
to
them and
then carefully reviewing delivered code and user-facing features.
ben_vulpes: i don't know about
that. generally working with any given individual for a few months is enough
to suss out
their competence.
decimation: I suppose
that part of
the problem really is
that humans need a few more generations
to sort out how
to have a 'status hierarchy' for programmers
ben_vulpes: decimation: all i know is how
to google shit.
kakobrekla: BingoBoingo> Studying CS would be a fine path if only
the studiers would accept being deprived of computers until
their 30's < hehe my old man was writing code years before he first saw a computer.
decimation: punkman: yeah
that's a good point.
the outside visibility on a superficial level is somewhat obscure
BingoBoingo: Studying CS would be a fine path if only
the studiers would accept being deprived of computers until
their 30's
ben_vulpes: thestringpuller: "OMG I can make money programming compooters, i'd better jump on
the CS bandwagon" << you
tell me
thestringpuller: now people drop out in 1st year and go
to SF and work for start up after start up
ben_vulpes: that is, if you really lack
the kind of mind
that hungers for something beyond "money".
thestringpuller: it's
the first cad software I used so I guess it's kinda "mainstream" now
punkman: thestringpuller: everyone knows autocad, doesn't need
to be in list
ben_vulpes: i still
think CS is
the worst way
to make money programmering.
thestringpuller: "OMG I can make money programming compooters, i'd better jump on
the CS bandwagon"
thestringpuller: most of
the undergrads coming in had never seen a programming language in
their lives so...
thestringpuller: asciilifeform: i
think brainfuck was
the only
thing
that fits
that criteria during my undergrad at least
thestringpuller: i don't
think
the undergrads are smart enough
to implement lisp
thestringpuller: only LISP use in my undergrad program is in
the AI courses
thestringpuller: I will be interested in seeing what happens when you
throw a key generator from here into
the mix
thestringpuller: "Yes, it is as safe as generating your keys using a local application.
The key generation on our website is done client-side only.
This means
the key pairs are generated entirely in your web browser and
they never leave your computer. Our website never sees any key related data or
the key itself."
ben_vulpes halfway expects 'node' 'gpg'
to shell out
to platform bins
punkman: I
think
they had openpgp.js before
ben_vulpes: "please compromise and brute force
this juicy
target."
thestringpuller: which causes more braindamages cause "consumer has come
to expect"
punkman: but it's an option
that shouldn't exist
punkman: thestringpuller: no
the encrypted key backup
thing is optional
thestringpuller: punkman: keybase is forcing users
to
trust in central authority rather
than forcing users
to learn "their lessons"
☟︎ ben_vulpes: punkman,
thestringpuller: a "better keyserver"'d not be a bad
thing
to do.
punkman: thestringpuller:
they more wanted
to make a "better" keyserver,
that linked
to your
twitter/github/whatever.
thestringpuller: i
thought keybase held your keys for you cause people are stupid
thestringpuller: how about we store private GPG keys in
the javascript portion of
the browser!
punkman: I don't mind
the CSS, but
the javascript situation is ridiculous
ben_vulpes: what's
the graphical www browser story over on le bsds?
jurov: what's
the problem with firefox?
