mircea_popescu: but otherwise
the css/html difference is not unlike
the "food division" and "detergent division" difference at unilever.
ben_vulpes: hah yeah i mean you have
to learn 3 different chodes at
the same
time
mircea_popescu: i explained a little about
the difference between imperative and notation, i
think she got
the gist.
mircea_popescu: you know, for a cult
this chan is one of
the most diverse places in
the world.
mircea_popescu: nubbins`: what's a young anti-consumerist
to do ;/ << shit look at
that, "mother earth news" is actually a
thing.
mircea_popescu: most common, of course, is spending some
time in jail, but hey.
mircea_popescu: inasmuch as i understand it, his chief complaint was, "no criminal empire footprint". easiest way
to get into
that, from memory, is dating
the whores.
jurov: you
too mentioned obama daughters and so explicitly
mircea_popescu: but
this is a quantitative discussion and he was making a qualitative challenge
mircea_popescu: nubbins`: you know i
took a ninety per cent pay cut
two years ago? << you actually made money at some point ?!
mircea_popescu: ben_vulpes: now *that*s
tears. << i met a chick
that quit her previous job, is learning
to program in html nao.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform: what's
the equivalent of
the 'stop gluttony and exercise' here << start dating whores.
ben_vulpes: mircea_popescu: just appreciating
the pun
mircea_popescu: nubbins`: why do i get
the impression [...] << because you're an asshole. just like me.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform: danielpbarron: in other news, i got netbsd ramdisk
to build. << o hey wd. what was
the catch ?
ben_vulpes: <mircea_popescu> [] it's really not hard
to block. but domestic isps = blockheads. << hurr durr
decimation: out,
that we should
think very carefully about eliminating or demonizing genetic engineering."
decimation: "Guest: One, we could feed
the world without GMOs;
there are other practices
that we could follow. So
the idea
that we are prisoners of
this
technology I
think is something
that should be dispelled. On
the other hand, I don't
think we should
try
that. I
think if our water is precious, if our
topsoil is precious, if we really care about
the hydrocarbon footprint
that we have in
terms of
the amount of cultivation
that we need
to carry
decimation: I didn't even know cargill was
the biggest private company in
the us
decimation: actually
the cargill guy was not super-pro gmo
decimation: yeah,
the next episode he interviews
taleb on gmos
ben_vulpes: decimation:
thanks for
the econtalk recommendation
jurov: til about
the " fresh ready
to eat" salads
jurov: remind me
to revisit
this back in 10 years ...whether fluffypony will still endorse such changes (or apple at all) by
then
decimation: asciilifeform: does
this mean you installed on
the pogo's nand flash?
ben_vulpes: because seriously sudo install libs
to system?
ben_vulpes: i am
tempted
to make a vm for
this ruby project.
decimation wishes
to shun nobody, but is somewhat mystified about how
to discern between
tidbits of data
that relate
to long-running discussions and 'boring' 'preaching
to
the choir'
fluffypony: it becomes a circlejerk when "preaching
to
the choir" devolves, and here we are
fluffypony: asciilifeform: precisely, but *everyone in
this room already knows*
decimation: it's an interesting specimen for folks
to study
fluffypony: hey I know, let's complain about how Coinbase is ruining Bitcoin with
their centralisation!
decimation: the world's greatest
thing
that solves all
the problems becomes
the 'deprecated feature' 3 years later
decimation: fluffypony: apple has been pulling
this kind of
thing for decades
danielpbarron: my portugese speaking american samoan born connecticut raised friend apparently had an aunt
that owned land in rodesia (phew what a mouth full)
fluffypony: so Apple is saying -shit- about a language, and fuck, it's
their language (inasmuch as
they're
the only ones still using it)
decimation: he's getting kinda old and
tired frankly
fluffypony: my mum was born in
the
then-christened Rhodesia
decimation: but it is understandable why apple would want it on
their c-machines
decimation: my original 'lol' was because I see 'centrally imposed' memory management as worse
than garbage collection
punkman: fluffypony: don't
tell us you love systemd now :P
fluffypony: the rejection of every abstraction, every high-level language, simply because it makes
things slightly easier
fluffypony: sure, GC -> ARC is changing
the label on a knob
fluffypony: yes, let's all decentralise all of
the
things
fluffypony: API stability != complete API freeze forever, and
the same goes for patterns and practices
fluffypony: also
their
transition doc has a 2013
timestamp, so if developers have
taken 2 years
to cotton on
to changes
then wtf,
they should choose a different career
fluffypony: decimation: I don't get what's lol about
that, .NET faces
the same issue (as have many high-level abstractions / languages), whereby
trying
to force GC collections or modify GC behaviour invariably ends up being messy. Frankly, handing off
to a reference counting system is way, way better
than GC bullshit.
danielpbarron: s/black/purple/
they are both black; one has blue logo, other has purple logo, which is removed with
the cap
that covers sata port
nubbins`: asciilifeform
this'll work on purple and blue units, yeah?
danielpbarron: asciilifeform> danielpbarron: in other news, i got netbsd ramdisk
to build. << yay! in related news, i got some links from a guy in #olimex who
tackled
this problem back in 2013; haven't checked it out yet / just got back from stocking up for
the impending snow storm
decimation: yeah, it sounded
to me like he was mostly helping
to 'sell'
the machines
to academic
types
decimation: also
the link
that ben_vulpes dropped about feynman working at
thinking machines was interesting. I didn't know he worked
there
decimation: well, certainly it could be
the case
that
the compiler is untrustworthy, but much higher on my list of concerns is
that some combination of new-jersey syscalls I'm using in my code will stab me in
the back
