pete_dushenski: fucken eh this greek yogurt is the bomb. screw all the 0
% fat hippies. 11
% or fuck off.
phf: 40
% of Pycon talks by women!
mircea_popescu: 90
% of everything he said past 12 months he said past 2, but this isn't something to inwardly consider.
mod6: we're pretty close to the first testing of it in here -- have some loose ends to tie up (the remaining ~20
%). if history is any guide, there will be more to do as change requests, etc. but at least we'll have somethign that works.
mod6: people will be expected to interact {add,edit,remove,view} tickets through tbot - which is probably .. eh, 70
% complete.
Framedragger: but mircea_popescu you of course know that lithuania is like 169
% US's bitch. this was confirmed with drug market raids etc etc, but it's a generally known fact anyway. that being said, heh, cool.
Framedragger: i think i once contacted them about running a tor exit node there, they had said well if you put in your own reverse dns info for the ip block we give you then we 100
% don't give a shit
mircea_popescu: (in other unrelated lolz : an item pompously styled "european parliament" has been meeting since 1979 ; it was elected through the european equivalent of clipping cereal coupons for a magic decoder ring ; participation has been dropping EVERY TIME CONSECUTIVELY SINCE THEN, and has been under 50
% for about two decades by now).
mircea_popescu: well, you know how it is, anotha day anotha dollah. how's they supposed to find a gcd implementation, if they give some internal pm the task it'll be 5 years and $250 mn for a mostly working library consisting of a stolen 50
% of the windows calculator.
mircea_popescu: mine usually just go "running into last 10
% of magic space, change this pos plox"
mircea_popescu: in other news, france saw over 500k arrests in 2007, which is to say 1
% of the population was arrested THAT YEAR, or, if things continue at the same rate, ~everyone then alive'd have a better chance to be arrested rather than not be, during his lifetime.
mircea_popescu: and we'll be bitching about how nominal equality, ie, 3 mn each, hides the fact that there's 2
% more women so there should really be more, exactly in the manner they derp today about how women don't work as long, so they make less.
jurov: he had 25
% that was not on mpex thus not possible to sell. then he got another 25
% which was *supposed to be sold to public*
mp_at_olivos: but it plays the role of single quote, much like
% is a question mark.
mircea_popescu: someone who has even an inkling of a chance of getting within 1
% of succeeding here, doesn't need your piddly "what barrista makes" income.
mircea_popescu: meanwhile 2 obama, 2 bush, 2 clinton and a bush sr back, the share buybacks were 5
% that.
a111: Logged on 2016-05-19 15:03 mircea_popescu: as the maximal leverage avaialble to the individual increases, the
% of things crawling out of cunts (which, recall, run perl) that may ever individuate decreases.
Framedragger: approx 4.2 GB of bandwidth used for 14.6k sshd-running IPs, hit rate ~= 0.02
% (these are rather random, not guaranteed-to-be-used (only definitely not in reserved blocks) subnets it's possible zmap just doesn't flush to file that often at all - will check later wtf's happening). $0.155 per GB of bandwidth (first 15 GB free). running for 72 min
mircea_popescu: to take a simple illustration : make this matchstick exactly 1 mn thick within 0.1
% tolerance throughout it's length and i'll pay you a dollar is hard. make this rod of molybdenum 1 mm thick within 0.0000001
% tolerance and i'll pay you a billion is easy.
mircea_popescu: you'll be lucky if you ever release 1
% of a rather large inmate population.
mircea_popescu: i also count all SORTS of things, including 3
% corp tax in romania, for instance. wasn't there in 86
mircea_popescu: by 1160, which catches us in paris, we're up to a leverage of maybe as high as twenty, and so "most men" is good enough an approximation. about 60-70
% really.
mircea_popescu: so, year is 160 ad, we're in rome. maximally, a man can replace the work of about fifty or so men, give or take. the mean of this is say 25. about 10
% of the population can reach this, and lo and behold - about 10
% of the empire's population is citizens!
mircea_popescu: as the maximal leverage avaialble to the individual increases, the
% of things crawling out of cunts (which, recall, run perl) that may ever individuate decreases.
☟︎ mircea_popescu: then #trilema, it's like mechaworld. 95
% computer by mass.
mircea_popescu: dude... i dunno. complete (romanian style, 5 course) meal at the "university house", ie, restaurant for high ranking profs etc, ~20 lei. which was the 3rd largest bill, 1
% or so of average salary.
mircea_popescu: phf he has a point, if you consider that have you saved the money back in 86, put it in apple shares, and then use it to bid now 4k would be what, 3
% ?
mircea_popescu: anyway : as i watched the woman be in 50
% of the shots and never ever win anything, it occured to me that maybe she's doing the same thing, only much better ?
a111: Logged on 2016-05-15 14:32 asciilifeform: BingoBoingo: similar situation with 'jew quota' in su. 'officially' it never existed. in practice, any serious institute where the management did ~not~ quietly implement one, would rapidly turn ~80
% jew and the brass would have to confront party official asking 'why are you running a synagogue here'
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform depends. i am not convinced by this theory because i've seen the
% vary very wildly across culutres.
mircea_popescu: fact is that where you needed 10
% of the population before you need 0.1
% now. and, economy being what it is and human nature being what it is, this "saving" did not get passed on. it just went into lazy, inefficient and wasteful.
mircea_popescu: ben_vulpes i'll have you know that s.mg is/was ever since forever 100
% girl tech corp.
PeterL: so are you saying you wouldn't lend money at less than 5
% because you have better things to do with it?
mircea_popescu: (yes - that's the point of sending kids to school. to get them from where their average capital productivity is < 0
% to where they get at least even with average. which should be within reach for an iq 100 fellow ; which is the only meaningful definition of iq available in the first place.)
mircea_popescu: PeterL even if they do, if you can't use capital more productively than 5
% a year it's time to go back to school.
PeterL: so, I bought a house, I figured it is a good time to lock up a loan at 3.5
% interest for 30 years
BingoBoingo: <asciilifeform> what, 3
% boost. << If the margins for running them are <3 then win if work
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo it's gonna be so fucking lulzy when trump ends up at the white house and he does exactly what obama did. remember, the nigger was gonna be entirely 100
% not like bush, and like close down guantanamo and get out of iraq etc ?
