pete_dushenski doesn'
t recommend wasting 80 mins of precious life watching gavin derp on podcast. just for historical reference and record.
☟︎ pete_dushenski:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B8l11q9hsJM << “I don'
t think any of us—especially those five people—want to be the high priests of Bitcoin. We need to find a new way of governing—a new way of coming to decisions and have everyone be happy with the process and the decisions that are reached.”
☟︎ trinque: I can sync them from assbot only if they're on SKS, and that one didn'
t appear to be, unless I'm coffee-deficient at the moment
pete_dushenski: obscenely regal proportions on that thing. 'pontoon fenders' doesn'
t begin to describe that delahaye. and those running boards !
shinohai: I am of the mind this isn'
t pure technical gremlins at work, considering the project.
fluffypony: I reported it as a hardware error 4 times, they kept telling me it can'
t be, it must be my configuration
mircea_popescu: ;;later tell Belxjander you haven'
t actually fixed your connection.
mircea_popescu: but that's all gone now. people aren'
t willing to kill each other so they'll get packed.
☟︎ mats: i don'
t abhor it like you do, will prob do it willingly well into late 20s
trinque: yeah, but you just don'
t run into them.
mircea_popescu: isn'
t "Found extra rooms in house" kinda like "found extra procedures in code" ?
mircea_popescu: re that "blame shift" : i wouldn'
t even say it's blame shift or anything. pure "us vs them" mentality. obama bombs some schools ? YAY! schools organise and shoot some us terrorists ? BOO!!1
assbot: Logged on 07-09-2015 00:45:54; shinohai: No one wants to be around someone that always projects negativity. But isn'
t there something to be said for honesty?
assbot: Logged on 07-09-2015 00:41:34; mircea_popescu: either don'
t be stupid, if you can, or if you can'
t, then don'
t be negative. sorcerers in the celestial city. zombies in the zombie horde.
assbot: Logged on 07-09-2015 00:33:26; mircea_popescu: on the plus side, you won'
t have any actual work to do, that sort where you could encounter and might have to overcome your own stupidity and general human limitations.
pete_dushenski: shinohai: sure, but i didn'
t see jurov seeking advice here. maybe i missed this in the logs ?
mircea_popescu: so you know, if his product sucks tell him in such a way that it doesn'
t come out you're better than him, and he won'
t think you were "being negative"
mircea_popescu: negative reinforcement is what your superiors do, and they can'
t have any.

☟︎ mircea_popescu: either don'

☟︎ mircea_popescu: but to be fair : i also won'
t hire them if they've been stupid online.
mircea_popescu: on the plus side, you won'
t have any actual work to do, that sort where you could encounter and might have to overcome your own stupidity and general human limitations.
☟︎ mircea_popescu: <shinohai> What kind of poppycock is that? Won'
t hire me if I have been negative online. << it's not hiring as much as living wage layer two. do you want to be like the niggers, getting free pills and welfare checks ? that's living wage layer zero. move to the ghetto. are you instead happy with the minimum wage, tax rebates, etc bullshit ? that's layer one, move to suburbia.
☟︎☟︎ shinohai: I'd like a browser that doesn'

shinohai: What kind of poppycock is that? Won'

pete_dushenski: the kitchen always gets a cut, so a server might only see 3-4% of a 10% tip, so she won'
t be too pleased
pete_dushenski: but in the united states of workerdignity, you can'
t leave a tip. unless you do.
mircea_popescu: you hear that nuland ? you ain'
t got the resources to compete. not good enough.
mircea_popescu: but anyway, enough of this pestering guy into a discussion of things he didn'
t particularly care to discuss.
trinque: mircea_popescu: nah, she's got a few screws loose and doesn'
t see fit to let me handle 'em with a screwdriver
punkman: mircea_popescu: punkman this approach is fundamentally at odds with the "lord over a domain" concept of software development prevalent here. << myeah, last attempt didn'
t work out too well, and I'd rather make my yearly sysadmining allotment shrink than grow
trinque: I don'
t suppose they'd offer enough space for one?
trinque: correct; haven'
t done that yet
trinque: yeah, that doesn'
t sound too hard
punkman: mircea_popescu: sure, but can'
t sysadmin the box it lives on (and don'
t want to fight ddos other than making application cache better and whatnot)
punkman: mircea_popescu: orphaned is not the right word there, consider that if the last two patches in your V set create two branches, you can'
t choose a branch. V will try to apply both and doesn'
t check filehashes during the patching process.
mircea_popescu: the one point nobody seems to have noticed re that : use mp style fonts (14 point bold) you won'
t have a problem.
punkman: PSA: print your ascii-armored keys out. don'
t use a xerox.
anton_osika: antonosika has to sign a document stating the location of delivery. He however involuntarily lost his hands. So he can'
t sign documents anymore.
mircea_popescu: im not even talking one exceptionally well trained gf. that won'
t cut it.

mircea_popescu wasn'
t there, hasn'
t seen, everyone on internet ~= dog.
mircea_popescu: all it can conceivably achieve is form minor dismissals in the minds here that hadn'
t prior bothered to consider
mircea_popescu: anyway, fwiw, i don'
t readily see a way to construct this "existentialism is fail because its idea of reality precludes itself" into meaningful criticism.
ag3nt_zer0: from my perspective, which may or may not matter, he doesn'
t seem to be one to be lightly dismissed
mircea_popescu: well he totally missed it and doesn'
t even have the excuse of not speaking the language.
ag3nt_zer0: which? sorry I don'
t follow... good day btw
andychase: Basically make your opinion matter by proving that you aren'
t sock puppet accounts and are actually unique and valuable memebers of the Bitcoin ecosystem
mats: core devs don'
t decide anything.
andychase: Well BIP66 fixed a consensus fork for miners running 32-Bit and 64-Bit computers, the shitshow happened because miners weren'
t validating blocks
andychase: Although to be honest I had a hard time understanding fully what you were talking about in regards to the flaws in the BIP process. Was it just that the Core Devs hadn'
t really talked to the miners or understood what was going on?
assbot: Logged on 03-09-2015 02:08:18; mircea_popescu: <asciilifeform> the other interesting thing is that the market is segmented in such a way that anyone who doesn'
t want mcfood ends up paying for ~all~ the alt-crackpotteries, not merely the logical ones << this is a very valid point, and the one spot where alf's ideas re meta-lizzards sound most persuasive. i do not believe the market is gerrymandered as it is by accident.
ben_vulpes: i don'
t think i understand their use well enough to complain in detail.
trinque: ;;later tell funkenstein_ If only Cortes hadn'
t destroyed the Mesoamerican time machine, you could travel back and set everything right.
