a111: Logged on 2018-10-18 17:09 mircea_popescu: it's a thing like "prescience" or "telepathy" : only exists through the process that sufferer's more likely to notice sustaining examples than disproving examples.

asciilifeform: imho biggest surprise re mircea_popescu's fetlife dig is that any actual chix turned up at all. i wouldn't have expected there were any.

"files" as in ~the fucking thing REFERENCED~ in the "file"system names aren't even first class abstractions! the drive's a BYTE device! there's no fucking files ANYWHERE except in the imagination.
a111: Logged on 2018-10-15 19:24 mircea_popescu: s a file system AT ALL, and the "all things are files" is just a thin wraper on a turd sausage made out of "we have no data model beyond ram and our disk doesn't actually work".

asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: observe that a TB of ecc ram costs approx same as tb of quality ssd.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: i wrote about this on my www in the past, whole concept of 'file system' is consequence of the nonvolatile memory poverty that gave us the orig ram/disk split
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: observe that current subj is a classic '4 ring binder' . we arent actually looking for file lock, file lock simply happens to be the only available ~working tool for machinewide-semaphore
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: it's broken in a dozen major ways and definitely noticeable

asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: massive userbase in east coast usa
asciilifeform: interesting, possibly what mircea_popescu saw wasn't even an actual 'uber' cabbie, but just some d00d with the sticker for no reason
a111: Logged on 2018-10-12 23:36 mircea_popescu: asciilifeform it meanwhile dawned on me. why the fuck would wu even be part of this conversation.

a111: Logged on 2018-10-15 17:54 mircea_popescu: "In spite of the frequency with which the practice of rolling joints is carried out, skill in rolling remains rare." << this will be the written epitaph on this whole sad world. sorta like Abdulkhakim Ismailov's twin watches the epitaph of previouis reich.
a111: Logged on 2018-10-08 17:21 mircea_popescu: as i say -- the young hussies already are looking for slavery and abjection, in contrast to their stupid mulas and stramulas. from rotherham to anytown, usa, the 15 yo is saying "please, beat, rape and light me on fire -- anything whatsoever but having to talk with my kinmorons."
a111: Logged on 2016-07-11 12:11 mircea_popescu: hilary should really be a very informative example for all teenaged girls today : NOTHING slavery inflicts upon you is quite as bad as what "being a successful" mainstream derp does to you.
BingoBoingo: <mircea_popescu> in 1980, you'd pop in an entirely random porno vhs and kinda know what you'd get ; and similarily light up and similarily know. << The classic 'pot' pot is still readily available in Uruguay. Pressed, consistent, shelf stable Product of Paraguay is available from most fellows in vests helping people parallel park
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: I am going off one fellow's account of why he went full bore on some "Bubba Kush" his hookup had duly warned him about
a111: Logged on 2018-10-15 17:19 mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo it does go pretty faint, the respiration. which yes, can definitely panic the more medically-informed.
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: Not at present. I am too stretched for time at the moment. It is more of a dump information of of my head to consult it later without keeping it in an active workspace portion of the head piece.
BingoBoingo: <mircea_popescu> lmao the drug on wars. ok, i was entertain't. << Intentional
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: There have been a number of times in Uruguay where I walked through what could have been "opium den" scenes, except without anyone being in danger of acute respiratory cessation

a111: Logged on 2018-02-14 14:22 mircea_popescu: MEANWHILE, however, they have 100% unaccounted for the time externality. so basically it's a contest consisting of a guy without legs going about finding fault with people's fingers. because he's decided "legs don't count", and so as he has much better hands than the rest of those losers he should be captain of the football team.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: btw for completeness strictly, note that there exists a ~third~ crc32 : division normally, but optionally generates table and then continues with table
a111: Logged on 2018-10-15 03:55 mircea_popescu: the leaves downstream from EACH n1 needn't be identical, nor needn't be different. in effect, the tree now has TWO groups of maintainers : those who maintain type 2 tree, for embeds, will not === those who maintain type 1 tree, for general use.
a111: Logged on 2018-10-15 10:15 mircea_popescu: specifically what i mean : if a process creates/deletes file on a very narrow schedule ; and another checks for file's existence on very narrow schedule, their respective pictures of when they think file exists and doesn't fails to match up.
ave1: mircea_popescu, I'm doing packet sniffing (with wireshark and netsniff etc) and I see different ethernet frame sizes reported
a111: Logged on 2018-10-15 04:14 mircea_popescu: asciilifeform in the end we could phrase it as "some rewriters -- deeper than others".

asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: i'ma switch to issuing cuntoo for new pilot rk folx as soon as trinque is finished birthing it
asciilifeform: funnily enuff , i have 2L bottles of both water and kerosene, dun rely on purely size to distinguish. but mircea_popescu can write his proggy however he wants.
asciilifeform: trinque & mircea_popescu specifically introduces manifests to prevent this scenario.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu specifically barfed , tho, and nobody any moar does this. so for nao yer stuck with cut&pasteism, as i understand.

a111: Logged on 2018-10-14 01:09 mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2018-10-13#1862164 << yes ; cuz all 1470s go to one process and all 1472s go to a different one. eventually as a scalability thing could even go to diff box altogether. there's not so muchrelation between the two types.
a111: Logged on 2018-10-14 01:10 mircea_popescu: diana_coman 14721 or 14702 BITS long, not octets yes ?
