than 12mn in december ?
that comes
to... half what mpex made ?

to die so he can sleep quietly at night while animals enjoy Gavin's cardiac sashimi
cazalla: undata: my gf

talk about code in my sleep, so what's
the difference <<< while asleep, i would chuck my pillow into
the baby's crib, grab
the beside lamp and bring it in
the bed, wake up screaming
to call an ambulance, shit like
that, she doesn't really miss my sleeping in otherside of
the house
cazalla: mircea_popescu: I HAVE A GREY BEARD YO! <<< i noticed

the 10 or so grey hairs i began sporting

thought well at least not as grey as mp
BingoBoingo: Of all kakobrekla busted scams Garr should have busted first. But when fishing for gar you can catch more with cotton balls
than hooks.
mircea_popescu: errything's getting done eventually. pretty much
the only certainty of
teh open model.
ben_vulpes: have i ever been aught but
the court clown?
ben_vulpes: asciilifeform: why focus on me,
though?
BingoBoingo: One crack rock and a
text file can
test against an actual spec.
BingoBoingo: <asciilifeform> ben_vulpes: i like
to imagine
that you'll get
the
thing into a shape where i can ask nubbins`
to print it <<
This
BingoBoingo: <asciilifeform> ben_vulpes: ...
to hear about how my slave
time should qualify me for
the satoshi codebase << ben_vulpes had better be qualified... just as artifexd had better be qualified for his part. << I enjoy
that unlike onions disqualifying contributions are illuminated. Because not over engineered.
ben_vulpes: because i honestly don't
think
that you see it.
ben_vulpes: and further - what precisely you
think my part is.
ben_vulpes: asciilifeform: you claim some sort of knowledge on how
things i did once qualify me for
things i do now. i'm curious
to know what precisely you
think qualifies me - on what sort of (shaky?) foundation
those assumptions and guesses rest.
ben_vulpes: asciilifeform: not
terribly. castoffs from
the pre-production days are always looking for a good home.
ben_vulpes: a wealth of knowledge
that would have doomed me
to a life in
the suburbs under buzzing "lights".
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: Because I may not like
that it was a
thing, but...
True Grit was apparentlyt remade
ben_vulpes: automation
thereof and design of subsystems for machines performing high voltage wafer binning.
ben_vulpes: <asciilifeform> aha, process man <<
testing, actually.
BingoBoingo: <mircea_popescu> BingoBoingo
time for qntra
to have pictures ? << It's had a couple... Why???
ben_vulpes: but go on asciilifeform, i wait nigh on
tenterhooks
to hear about how my slave
time should qualify me for
the satoshi codebase maintenance.
BingoBoingo: <mircea_popescu> a mix not unlike "paralegal work, some pr, copywriting and sucking cock
tied naked
to bridges" << OMG It's QNtra!!!
ben_vulpes: the
topologically similar jobs - as miserable as you'd no doubt find my current line of employ.
mircea_popescu: a mix not unlike "paralegal work, some pr, copywriting and sucking cock
tied naked
to bridges"
ben_vulpes: consider
the rocketry a undergrad's self indulgence, not
too different from your lisp machine obsessions.
ben_vulpes: asciilifeform: my professional slave
time's been strictly constrained
to cross-domain systems engineering in high-voltage wafer
testing, machine shop engineering, production line automation and retarded "web" "technologies".
assbot: We might use IRC in class next semester.
That would be interesting.
ben_vulpes: i'm having
trouble imagining in which ways my mine work resembles spelunking
through
the satoshi codebase.
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform:
The hard problem I see if why you are right about UDP, mircea_popescu right about not signing everything, etc is
that
the new world is complicated. We aren't slaying mere aztecs anymoar
ben_vulpes: magically condenses
the codebase into something fathomable by mortals like i?
mircea_popescu: ah,
the drama of building a new world with hands and however you call
that little
thing
they mix mortar in
BingoBoingo: Linked example
though is exactly why world needs competent drunks.
BingoBoingo: ^ At
that deviation from filmed version I come cheaper and more authentic
than actual Duran Duran
cazalla: personally, my own feelings match gaggi's "why
take a chance" scene
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform:
To my knowledge

ben_vulpes: the satoshi codebase is so gorgeously well engineered
that it kills gdb when approaching
the wedge
cazalla: chairman of
the fucking board philip green
cazalla: ya know, every
time ya make
these story suggestions, it feels like
that scene in Casino
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: But
the qntra is a global conglomerate.
Too early for him
to have peanut butter jelly
time.
BingoBoingo drinking
tonight and writing so waiting on sobriety
to pull
the
