mod6: <+phf> the feature has been there for a while.. i really should document all the different flags that you can pass to message listing << aha. this would be great as I know the thing does a lot of things, i can just never remember what they are :]
phf: i need to figure out how to persist it better. for example i think that the flags should be passed on through <- and -> page changes. or perhaps you should be able to store them in cookie ☟︎

BingoBoingo: All I know if Kars4Kids ads are a cancer
BingoBoingo: Oh do they. I though chairty watch just told you every so called charity was a scam and too keep all your jools4you
BingoBoingo: Seriously though, I am in the midwest. Here the shit they should be putting on windows is closer to $40 and up for a full sheet

mircea_popescu: i was vaguely curious if anyone'll confess, tbh.
mod6: have to use Interfaces.C to exec gpg and things. which, I don't love. but eventually, will need to be rebuilt to work with 'p'.
mircea_popescu: andhere i'd have thought ~today's~ ehader is shinohai 's favourite.\
mod6: i feel like it wasn't that long ago that I had to start doing the apt-get install sshd thing on boxen
asciilifeform: i ran into it when trying to replicate the classical 'dead rng' debian setup
mod6: this started about a hear ago where i think they just figured "if we don't ship with ssh, then they'll just go back to using rlogin"
asciilifeform: i presently have nfi how anyone considered or even today considers, e.g., ubuntu, to be a workstation os

pete_dushenski: "i even asked my nerdy cousin but he said he'd never seen the sun either, though he claimed that a wow-head buddy had years ago back when the sun was only a little tyke, but i can't be sure how accurate that account is"
pete_dushenski: what's more entertaining is watching usg.xxx struggle internally with pretending the sun isn't really rising but wouldn't it be neato if it did and i bet you it would follow this calculated trajectory along the sky.
PeterL: heh, wait, I guess I want a non-obsolete
PeterL: ok, found this https://keccak.team/obsolete/KeccakKAT-3.zip , I will work on setting up tests against it
PeterL: I was about to ask, is there a good source of in:out pairs to compare against?
PeterL: ah, what I mean is now I can actually get an output

mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2017-09-07#1711376 << i'm very curious where hungary actually lives up to the nationalist pretense of the past decade and tells them where to stuff it. ☝︎
mircea_popescu: and since i linked that, how about http://trilema.com/2012/fact-of-the-matter-is-the-infrastructure-was-not-ready/#comment-91305 in re http://btcbase.org/log/2017-08-18#1699949 ☝︎
mircea_popescu: the difference between altcoin and bcc is that i stopped supporting altcoin after losing some dust ; whereas the idiots are still pushing the dead cat uphill in spiute of losing milions. which is, again, why http://trilema.com/2012/fact-of-the-matter-is-the-infrastructure-was-not-ready/#selection-27.0-53.592 ie you SHOULD NOT give ANY money to children and imbeciles. and that includes governments, which are always and everywh

PeterL: umm, that was all I got
PeterL: so I have been cleaning up bugs, and I ran into the error "raised constraint_error : s-expint.adb:65 overflow check failed" any idea what that would come from?
PeterL: I threw together http://p.bvulpes.com/pastes/JWVm6/?raw=true so that I could test out my keccak by hashing a file

asciilifeform: 'I assumed that a company as well known as Coinbase must have phone support. So I googled “coinbase phone support” and a number popped up. I gave this number to Rita. It turns out that this number was a fraud. When Rita called it, a man identified himself as a Coinbase support rep and asked her to go to a special Coinbase support website where he had Rita enter her username, password, and the confirmation code texted to her phone

mircea_popescu: but no, i was watching dolly parton not like stallone.
mircea_popescu: anyway, pretty close to villahermosa, which i've been to.
mircea_popescu: not much of a concern that i dun think.
mircea_popescu: ben_vulpes i expect < 15 minutes yes.
mircea_popescu: trinque that, i felt. very slight shake.
mircea_popescu: how the fuck didn't i feel ANYTHING ?
ben_vulpes: i recall this being a useful feature once upon a time

mircea_popescu: whether she conceptualizes this sexual mutilation as "i hate the man and so i bit off his penis" or "i rly LUV!!1 the man so much i... cut off his penis" is irrelevant. yes the latter is the sort of perversion (in proper terms, cognitive dissonance) "civilised" individuals tend to come up with to explain their own choices to themselves. nevertheless, a cut is a cut, it has no philic component.,
ben_vulpes: those bussed refugees are going to receive just the most cordial welcome in the ethnically homogeneous states that didn't want them in the first place, i bet
fromloper: ben_vulpes I remember having read em now - got it!
fromloper: ben_vulpes no, but I certainly will - thanks!

a111: Logged on 2017-09-07 17:52 trinque: tangentially, but I was taken aback by the beauty the moment I realized that the consonant sound in "ad" was closer to me than the one in "ab".
mircea_popescu: now, forcing a point : if complex numbers are notated as a + bi, then it is a correct approach to describe a sum as x (= a + a') + y (=b + b') i rather than x' (= q + p i + r + t i) + y' (=q' + p' i + r' + t' i). the former notation would be a normatively correctly stated theorem (elements are orthogonal) whereas the latter would, while still equivalent, nevertheless be normatively incorrect (it mixes up the lemmas!).
mircea_popescu: i much prefer this categorical expression of the notion to the copacetic "statistically independent variates" approach.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: i suspect that we dun have same def of the word
mircea_popescu: i think latin-gone-wild may be more on the point. sort-of like that good jewess / future balabusta of http://trilema.com/2016/black-book/ trying to get as much nazi/anything cock as possible.

asciilifeform: i thought they were mutilated latin lol
mircea_popescu: a language where ALL parts are orthogonal is entirely the phone book, unable to mean anything. i thought the contention was language where SOME parts are orthogonal.
mircea_popescu: note that i'm not saying ~your notion~ of up and left can't be orthogonal. of course they can be, in fact they'd better be. but the WORDS thatr denote them, can't be, at least not while staying words.
asciilifeform: i dun get at all how. but possibly requires moar lsd.
mircea_popescu: but i think the point transpires, if metaphorically : the fundamental reason language even exists in any usable, useful form is the rejection of orthogonality as a possibility.
asciilifeform: if that ain't orthogonal i have nfi what and where is
a111: Logged on 2016-12-21 18:32 mircea_popescu: because no, words don't "have meanings". your meanings for ANY WORD are a function of ALL THE OTHER WORDS YOU KNOW. which is why my definitions regularily blow out english dictionaries, wikipedia and other sources of "wisdom" out of the water - i know more words, and in this knowledge i know all the words i know ~better~. infinitely and irreproducibly so.
mircea_popescu: a fine example in that very same paragraph : "I don't expect I've done" is very much different from the "plain english" "equivalent" "I don't think I've done" : as there is no relation between expectation and reality, saying "i don't expect i've done" is a perfectly fine sendoff on a masterpiece. not same in the case of the latter
asciilifeform: http://btcbase.org/log/2017-09-07#1711138 << a yea i put up flag on my human www. it bringeth traffic, believe or not ( to what end -- is other q entirely ) ☝︎
shinohai: If you need copy of mp-wp PeterL I can accomodate
PeterL: ok, I'll look into getting something set up
mircea_popescu: i second the blog idea. PeterL you have a healthy output phi, you should not leave it at the mercy of archive-bot-saved-a-paste.
PeterL: well, my next step was going to be actual testing, right now I just got it to not have any compile errors! :)
PeterL: ok, I will look forward to your comments!
asciilifeform: i'ma read whole thing before emitting any moar nonsense
PeterL: keep in mind I am just learning ada as I do this, I feel like there might be a more efficient way to do some of the things (like the type conversions)
asciilifeform: i find it strange that mircea_popescu forgives the pseudophysicists the same sins that he correctly unforgives the pseudocryptographers
asciilifeform: upstack re physicists : i could've sworn we had the unifications thread
mircea_popescu: let god judge his internal state, i care little past the deeds.
mircea_popescu: but anyway, i think i said it before. and if i didn't, here it is again : curtis yarvin may be stupid, or else he may be evil, but in either case he's done more to ruin his country than quisling did to ruin his.

asciilifeform: and fwiw the 1 serious open question i know of , that could be answered with costly machine -- is the al schwartz eotvos test. pretty low energy, at that.
asciilifeform: the sad thing is that money pretty much begs itself to be spent on fancy machines. because neither mircea_popescu nor i nor anybody else could transform arbitrarily large bag of money, into another schrodinger.
mircea_popescu: nevertheless, if i were allocating fundamental research funds, i'd spend most of it on high energy particle research.
mircea_popescu: i'm entirely unsure why these two items (string theory ; high energy particles) are so strictly welded together in your head.
BingoBoingo: lol, I have a physical one of those!
mircea_popescu: wait, i thought it was dropping. what'd i miss.
