decimation: the problem is that many of the promises of ada cannot be kept by the underlying hardware
asciilifeform: in being tremendously unpleasant to work in
asciilifeform: it is more or less the antithesis of the 'hip language'
asciilifeform: i advise folks to learn enough ada to understand why something quite like it is necessary.
BingoBoingo: ^ most good things are architecture agnostic
asciilifeform: (no big surprise to folks accustomed to gcc)
decimation: I doubt they use x86 for such purposes either
asciilifeform: or rather, the ada component of gcc is based on the ancient usg-commissioned thing
asciilifeform: decimation: actually - they do
decimation: presumably they do not use gcc
BingoBoingo: Also sun when they were monied enough to bezzel up Java
asciilifeform: avionics, power plant controls, the like - systems whose failure reliably produces piles of corpses and messy 'pr' - are still very heavy on ada.
asciilifeform: decimation: usg, interestingly, did not entirely abandon. but under pressure from microshit (primarily) relaxed the ancient laws
asciilifeform: (pet peeve of mine - 'lisp' (or worse, the '60s-ism LISP) is a hopelessly nonspecific term that encompasses languages that differ from one another far more even than 'algol' differs from 'c')
decimation: but not because it failed to serve a purpose
asciilifeform: two and only two.
asciilifeform: who wants to laugh, but there are precisely two programming languages in existence which are 1) standardized and 2) you can -actually write complete systems- using -the language described in the standard-
BingoBoingo: about decay yes. WFT "fix" was important enough to kill this
decimation: asciilifeform: what are you trying to compile that is written in ada?
asciilifeform: if not about gnat, the overall state of decay.
asciilifeform: ^ does anyone other than me care
asciilifeform: re: gnat: 4.6.4 builds but actually attempting to use yields 'gnatgcc: fatal error: -fuse-linker-plugin, but liblto_plugin.so not found'

ben_vulpes: bb's trollin.
mircea_popescu: no condensation around the hose ?
decimation: for one thing, venting into a closed box means that there's no venting
decimation: that pretty much the dumbest thing I've ever heard
asciilifeform unable to think of, much less find on net, any possible justification for this
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: Silver hose come out of wall goes into freezer. Snake sent throug hose strikes over stove fan.
mircea_popescu: i guess it must be good for the economy.
mircea_popescu: the land of the free, where stupidity creates a whole industry!
decimation: throw some yogurt < yes you can actually: http://www.walgreens.com/store/c/rephresh-pro-b-probiotic-feminine-supplement-capsules/ID=prod6003401-product
asciilifeform: BingoBoingo: who sells this? and can you describe that it looked like ?
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo so what happens at the joints ?
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: Rental house in southern Illinois. When there I am frequently drunk but been there enough times to verify this sober while cleaning.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform honestly i just skipped over all that, it's too insane.
mircea_popescu: yes, but you can't just throw some yogurt into your cunt.
asciilifeform: BingoBoingo: wai wat !?! where did you see a freezer with an air inlet hose, and can you swear that you were sober ?
decimation: mircea_popescu: they also ruin the gut fauna
mircea_popescu: ben_vulpes this is more like management than execution.
danielpbarron: there's this commercial they keep airing about a product for women who have "swagger" which is apparently code for "fat smelly vag"
ben_vulpes: i am not accustomed to being responsible for female cleanliness!
mircea_popescu: decimation i suspect you lived (as in, with women) long enough to know exactly what antibiotics do to their bits ?
decimation: or they hand out antibiotics
mircea_popescu: the rest prescribe windex or w/e the fuck.
mircea_popescu: every usanistan obgyn that is not insane treats sporadic uti in healthy females the same way : "get a proper shower woman!"
decimation: I like the 'shower with a hose' because it makes it simple to rinse off the shower after cleaning
mircea_popescu: "bend over and get it wet with stuff that washes off your arsehole"
mircea_popescu: if you think about it for a second, you realise what a fucking scandal this is.
ben_vulpes: i've always been amused by the "bend over and get it wet" approach, but i'm a total noob.
mircea_popescu: it's self-soaping, the vagina.
mircea_popescu: so how exactly is a woman supposed to wash standing while being rained upon ?
BingoBoingo: <decimation> those can be retrofit into us showers but are definitely 'out of fashion' << Plenty of them in Nursing homes and higher end hotels (i.e. the ones foreigners can afford)
[]bot: Bet placed: 2 BTC for No on "Gold to drop under $1000 before April 2015" http://bitbet.us/bet/1119/ Odds: 24(Y):76(N) by coin, 25(Y):75(N) by weight. Total bet: 5.0401 BTC. Current weight: 98,721.
mircea_popescu: but instead the civilised model with 3 meter's worth of flexible chord.
BingoBoingo: AH, here's the thing the inspired feminine linux https://gitorious.org/c-plus-equality/c-plus-equality/source/cefcfb4276889bd3833c539225a9cdfd3eb16d33:
decimation: supervising the design and construction
decimation: the real estate chumpatron in the us is finely tuned to prevent any actual person from being involv[\
ben_vulpes: <asciilifeform> ben_vulpes: post your x86 auto.sh on the listserv ? << any reason to not run with -xeu?
BingoBoingo: decimation: Nah when you open the freezer while using the stove at a friend's place you get a definite fog of steaming out of the freezer. The only justification I can thing of is the hope freezing smells sequesters them?
decimation: BingoBoingo: sounds like they were 'supposed' to install an outdoor vent, and ended up installing nothing
ben_vulpes: <mircea_popescu> and yet you savages still don't have cunt basins as a regular fixture, amirite ? << why's the shower so inadequate?
BingoBoingo: decimation: a few places I've seen the kitchen stovetop vent fan pipes air in the the neighboring fridge's freezer compartment because... Who fucking knows anymore
ben_vulpes: my stovetop vent vents into the apartment.
BingoBoingo: decimation: I find it lulzy when I encounter stovetop vents that pump air into the freezer
BingoBoingo: <mircea_popescu> holy shit why, because stray pubic hairs ? << That and lingering urine smells, because "Clean when I moved in" is good enough to not justify cleaning ever again for the more degenerate Pindos
decimation: the reason they lack them is apparently because the builders could be liable for the kitchen fires that happen when nobody cleans out the air vent pipe
mircea_popescu never liked kitchen air vents. they generally favour infestations.
mircea_popescu: decimation but you can just open the window neh ?
decimation: the 'replacement' is a recirculating fan with a 'filter' that doesn't work at all
mircea_popescu: so the 3rd is actually for guests ?!
decimation: mircea_popescu: it's now common in modern us 'tract' homes that the build has no air vent in the kitchen
BingoBoingo: The goal in contemporary American home architecture as espoused by HGTV is concealing from visitors the set of bathrooms used for actual bathroom functions
mircea_popescu: s/"what could one possibily need THAT for"/"what is oral sex???"/
BingoBoingo: Indeed, that would make each bathroom more expensive.
BingoBoingo: Nah, It's American style. Bathrooms are the new show of affluence
mircea_popescu: i suppose this is Departamentos Diarrhea then ?
assbot: LifeIsSoSweet comments on Using Mike Hearn's Bitcoin XT instead of Bitcoin Core as full node took just a couple of minutes. ... ( http://bit.ly/1At6koP )
mircea_popescu: then again, i don't see any of the "Global Warming ? opps!" "QE ? oops!" etc posts from the libertards, so i guess a slightly cleaner toad is still the prettier princess.
mircea_popescu: https://freereiser.wordpress.com/2008/07/11/whoops/ << this IS pretty lulzy
BingoBoingo: Google does't act generally anymore though
mircea_popescu: would be contrary to what they do generally, anyway.
mircea_popescu: it mines them for info, yes, but it doesn't actually give the users any power.
mircea_popescu: i don't think google actually honors those.
cazalla: i guess that is no unexpected from a bunch of idiots who ban me from commenting in their subreddit but upvote qntra anyway
cazalla: lol trilema is do not link on buttcoin?
ben_vulpes: <thestringpuller> asciilifeform: random question. If someone paid for you to take Buterin's C4 (Certified Bitcoin Professional) exam, would you do it? << wait, CBP is a Buterin project?
decimation: asciilifeform: that 'intel boot guard' is scary
mircea_popescu: think about that for a minute : google bombing through a google separator.
mircea_popescu: but since they do not wish to o may gawd promote my stuff with their impotent brownian motion, they use some sort of google juice filter (no idea if it works).
mircea_popescu: so : the powerless have decided that the way to attack me is through... google bombing.

mircea_popescu: http://www.reddit.com/r/Buttcoin/comments/2uek9v/famous_bitcoin_shill_andreas_anontopolous_will/co7x5om <<< this is possibly the lulziest thing i saw all day.
mircea_popescu: the libertard is a particularly insidious totalitarian, in that he doesn't even admit his outright enmity to liberalism.
mircea_popescu: is to say, as the Court does today, that all executions of the mentally retarded are so morally repugnant as to violate our national “standards of decency,” surely the “consensus” it points to must be one that has set its righteous face against all such executions. Not 18 States, but only seven–18% of death penalty jurisdictions–have legislation of that scope."
mircea_popescu: "The Court pays lipservice to these precedents as it miraculously extracts a “national consensus” forbidding execution of the mentally retarded, ante, at 12, from the fact that 18 States–less than half (47%) of the 38 States that permit capital punishment (for whom the issue exists)–have very recently enacted legislation barring execution of the mentally retarded. Even that 47% figure is a distorted one. If one
mircea_popescu: http://www.law.cornell.edu/supct/html/00-8452.ZD1.html << apparently consensus has been poorly understood by the supreme court no less, as early as 2002.
