asciilifeform: unrelatedly, mircea_popescu do ya think you can muster 30-40min this wk to eat the 14a maffs ? i'd like to know asap if there's typo or other hole.
mircea_popescu: fortunately they speak uncharacteristically roman (ie, clean) italian for the period.
mircea_popescu: and let me underscore, the original dialogues are pure poetry, watching it dubbed or trusting subtitles is like reading bowdler's shakespeare.
mircea_popescu: put it on top, it's one of the few masterpieces of that aspiring art.
mircea_popescu: superb film, the wife's an archetype. "me sono cascata anche io...", golden words.
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: Well, rotating bridge in Carmelo got beat up over the weekend by a roaving gang of feral boats.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform in my experience, never wants, sometimes grudgingly has to because morons.
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo : "morningRebel 18F Switch Pest, Hungary orientation: Pansexual active: Curious And Want To Try is looking for: A mentor/teacherFriendshipA MasterA Mistress" original blurb bot recorded.
asciilifeform: it always 'wants' to grow a shield, in same way as bridge 'wants to fall'
mircea_popescu: attempts to fashion one, (out of the powers of imagination, of course), is what ultimately distinguish the west and the east franks.
asciilifeform: (at least some of the time)
mircea_popescu: did i recount the lulzy story of female waterbugs having developed a cunt shield, and so male waterbugs holdsing them on water close to frogs and jumping ?
mircea_popescu: because if it didn't, you understand, we'd have the problems of waterbugs
asciilifeform sometimes to pet, 'pause feeming for a moment and think through $item' 'ok..'
mircea_popescu: well so then. she can be as smart as you wish, a cunt she's still got, and that hole in the body comes with a hole in the mind.
a111: Logged on 2018-12-15 18:13 asciilifeform: sorta how i've met runners, even competition-grade ones, but they did not run all day, erry day, to kitchen, to toilet, etc
mircea_popescu: it has not to be dumb at all. it has to be ~FEMALE~.
asciilifeform: how dumb does critter have to be, to buy this ?
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: i heard before this phrase. what does it mean? 'this here is safe, but that there is where crocodile will emerge from your terminal and bite' ??
mircea_popescu: stupid, yes, but nobody said sexuate reproduction comes at 0 cost. seduction has to occur ~somehow~, the ship has a hole for a purpose.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform the whole gambit of the "safe space" internet is that women will generally put their pics in on the strength of some superficial assurance of friendly environment.
mircea_popescu: end up doing with themselves.
mircea_popescu: kinda how 16yo schoolgirls coming from overcomfortable family circumstances (overambitious, overindulgent & overattentive father, overtolerant mother, overflowing dinner table, overisolated [no, no reason for girls to get own room wtf is this])
asciilifeform: i dunno that i've ever thrown anything but rng into 'your age' 'location' etc. crapola survey
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform it's fashionable among a certain set of opinionated female morons, to be 90s and from antarctica.
mircea_popescu: this is universally the boon of the internet.
BingoBoingo: 98F... Seems like the window on that one closed a while ago
asciilifeform: if only merely 'spun in desert'. these are the folx who gave us 'i lost mah keyz' zimmarman, who then pupated into 'rng, what rng' koch, et al
mircea_popescu: these fucktards, spinning around in the desert for 30 years, then aiming to enact moses a fucking statue for his trouble.
asciilifeform: ( for ~what~ one might want this, is separate q , who the fuq needs voice )
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: for added lulz, given http://btcbase.org/log/2018-12-07#1878844 , one actually ~could~, in principle, bake 'rsa pnoje' ( in the sense that, e.g., 2048 * (1/.296) ~= 7kbit/s , moar than enuff for voice ) ☝︎
mircea_popescu: meanwhile in today's fetlife, http://p.bvulpes.com/pastes/Ug2hz/?raw=true : the first reported ~marginal~ failure. (not the first encountered ; but i figure maybe someone has some use for almost-smart-enough female, so why not publicize.)
mircea_popescu: " There is an ad hoc demonstration of a new product, an AT&T "secure" phone, supposedly the first conversation-scrambler that's as simple to use as a standard-issue phone." << the kanzure mickey mouse club still doing this btw.
mircea_popescu: sadly, the field actually had to wait for us. but anyway, nice try america, you'll be remembered by the five or so people born there. of which i hear one just died.
mircea_popescu: "Their mutual interest is the arcane field of cryptography—the study of secret codes and cyphers. The very fact that this group exists, however, is indication that the field is about to shift into overdrive. " << yeah, such overdrive...
a111: Logged on 2018-05-04 17:15 zx2c4: mircea_popescu: oh. so. "the world doesnt care about the cool hackers on the internet, but only the assholes with prestigious positions." this has been a widely known complaint for a long time
mircea_popescu: it's always funny (for he who, being "old af" isn't born yesterday) just how 100% the "corporate success" bla bla is copied off "oh, those marginal guys whom http://btcbase.org/log/2018-05-04#1809349 " ☝︎
mircea_popescu: "A mattress is nestled in the rafters. In a hallway behind the reception desk is a kitchen laden with snack food and soft drinks." << check it out, early google office.
mircea_popescu: story of last year's grass : some died, some turned, some went old-stupid-crazy.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: near as i can tell, it was a mixture of provocateur shilling and genuinely earnest usefulidjits -- schneier, for instance, was at the time an apparently-earnest 'activist', as was djb (who sued usg at considerable personal expense, and even won in some sense iirc )
mircea_popescu: "It's the FBIs, NSAs, and Equifaxes of the world versus a swelling movement of Cypherpunks, civil libertarians, and millionaire hackers. At stake: Whether privacy will exist in the 21st century."
mircea_popescu: "Early credit also goes to Hugh Daniel (since passed) who administered some of the initial Cypherpunks mailing list infrastructure and IMHO should be considered the fourth Cypherpunks co-founder. For a good and reasonably accurate explanation of the early Cypherpunks days, see the article by Steven Levy in the February 1993 issue of Wired Magazine." << dude, remember back when wired was readable, THIRTY YEARS AGO ?
mircea_popescu: about 1/10 the capital so to speak.
BingoBoingo: Roughly the same vintage as DailyKos and Howard Dean
mircea_popescu: luxuries of the republic.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform so there you go, ima have her do the entire book, can always read it in human hand now.
a111: Logged on 2016-08-19 13:51 asciilifeform: https://pad.riseup.net/p/87Mazw3Jsdfe_pm/timeslider#11 << multistory lul tower. for instance, i had no idea what is 'riseup' until its pgp keys began to pop.
asciilifeform never heard of the subj d00d of ^ , but pictures that he was typical specimen of http://btcbase.org/log/2016-08-19#1525131 ☝︎

asciilifeform: http://btcbase.org/log/2018-12-17#1881207 << this is pretty neat. ☝︎
lobbesbot: juliankunkel: Sent 14 hours and 22 minutes ago: <mircea_popescu> would you kindly spare us the join/part spamming ? can read the weblogs just fine, no need to be connected with nothing to say.
juliankunkel: sorry. Was not aware that spams here.

mircea_popescu: this seems a good question. what did you do to i gnight tonight ?
mircea_popescu: " trust me honey, i’m intelligent. intelligent to know that it takes more than intellect to read your expansive subject line. it takes desire. desire that you did nothing to ignight & are dampening even more"
asciilifeform: regularly. and just about all day, erry day, mass bruteforce idjits. formerly i 'policed' these, iptables, ban lists, but since indices nolonger bother
asciilifeform: ( can try with 'curl' yerself )
asciilifeform: search of whole orchestra takes 200-500ms
asciilifeform: inserting a key ( of typical mass, coupla sub-FP's, etc) takes ~100msec.
asciilifeform: and, notably, ultra-stable, i planted the thing on pg in '16 and has ran at all times it had a box to run on, 100% duty cycle, no crashes
asciilifeform: i dun have much in the way of seriously deep departure from default global config ( the defaults are surprisingly sane in pg -- e.g., no 'eat infinite ram' default like apparently exists in mysql )
asciilifeform: i'ma put on the conveyor, a piece re how to index ( supposing trinque dun get to it 1st )
mircea_popescu: trinque afaik, the original champion.
asciilifeform: the only item i have that is intensely pgistic is indices
asciilifeform: is anybody other than asciilifeform using postgres currently ?
mircea_popescu certainly not against having magic postgres ver+config tested out for mp-wp. never stumbled on the magic combo, but also never looked too hard. the hooks are in though, can be switched ~effortlessly.
mircea_popescu: prolly should publish this then
asciilifeform: ( all on postgres tho, and prolly not straight-portable to others, e.g. mysql )
asciilifeform: http://btcbase.org/log/2018-12-16#1881163 << fwiw in the end i tuned phuctor so has transactions + indices + fast + sliced bread ☝︎
asciilifeform: my absolute fave to date in this genre
mircea_popescu: yeah, and it was mostly bod too, like 6k units high q.

feedbot: http://danielpbarron.com/2018/i-guess-well-know-for-sure-at-the-judgment/ << Daniel P. Barron -- I guess we'll know for sure at the judgment.
mircea_popescu: remembering arbitrary random associations is not enough, gotta now remember their order, also. what -r is recursive and -v is version, grep wants -v to be invert match and curl wants -r to be "range", whatever the fuck yahoos come up with you're stuck learning.
mircea_popescu: ANOTHER three years.
mircea_popescu: meanwhile in trilema throwbacks thursday, http://trilema.com/2015/a-lunatic-with-a-bloodied-axe-could-be-ringing-at-your-door/
mircea_popescu: these are contrary, and the contrast is unresolvable, either you go for tall girls or you go for light girls. there's no tall light girls.
a111: Logged on 2018-12-01 21:21 mircea_popescu: "the notion that airplanes could reproduce through laying eggs is merely a naive extension, in the vein of 'object A has properties a and b ; object B shares property a and therefore it is reasonable ~~~on a first approximation~~~ to expect it exhibit proerty b'. nevertheless, artifacts differ from nature in that one fundamental aspect, that they're inefficient, and therefore to achieve same ends end up heavy, and in the case
mircea_popescu: ie, we're straight back to a http://btcbase.org/log/2018-12-01#1877543 : when it comes to flight, the strategy must include separating the egg laying part out of the airplane. whereas when it comes to fit-in-head or what have you, elegance, self-containedness, the egg laying part must be included in the airplane. ☝︎
mircea_popescu: and speaking of the db issue, because yes i've been mulling it though, it is ~probably~ an unresolvable conundrum. things like trilema laughing at http://trilema.com/2014/mircea-popescu-is-an-asshole/ slash 2014 douchebags entirely depend on its underlying database (and its usage thereof) being very well flattened into vanishing nothingness. meanwhile items like the search discussed last time, support for transactions (which
diana_coman: but re articles on trilema in general I'd say that they certainly build a LOT on pre-existing stuff so yes, on one hand better and on the other hand more complex
diana_coman hasn't yet read the Post Malone thing
mircea_popescu: i'd say my articles are getting better, or rather that it seems to me there was a quality jump sometime this year. but this is to me, from outside i suspect the complexity just exploded (again).
mircea_popescu: "The article is short, its embedded references are a den of rabbit holes. " << this last one has, (i counted), 22 links. half of which (exactly) are linked to-reference inside, and most of the reference indices are three digits. one's 4 digits (2781!). the average is 427 (exactly!) and considering that thing counts objects...
diana_coman: corrections added with links in a comment too
diana_coman: and thank you for all the feedback!
mircea_popescu: but yes, pretty good both as to time taken and as to content produced!
mircea_popescu: "five dollars -- knob ; five grand -- the time it took to learn which"
diana_coman: ah, ah, re time; well, it's the 3 hours after ..how many years
diana_coman: anyway, this is mainly because of this repeated "oh, this was around for ages; uhm, no, actually since ~2 months ago"
diana_coman: I thought she was anyway moving on to doing the ocr thing?
mircea_popescu: and nicole is not in the slightest jealous at all.
diana_coman: this is not to say that any week would take the same, as I don't expect it would
diana_coman: ftr the whole thing took a bit less than 3 hours including some re-reading of stuff just-because
mircea_popescu: there's two basic salutations, anthropo-objectively speaking : "i'm with you" and "may you be ok".
mircea_popescu: http://ossasepia.com/2018/12/16/a-week-in-tmsr-3-9-december-2018/#selection-263.110-263.118 << salve is the other one, from salus ("health", really though more like "indemnity"). cons rom reg phyrrh ~salutem~.
diana_coman: right, no ways to improve the algorithms rather
mircea_popescu: http://ossasepia.com/2018/12/16/a-week-in-tmsr-3-9-december-2018/#selection-211.1-211.257 << maybe a bit of an overstatement. eg, turning off the checks will improve it still.
