mircea_popescu: if i'm pissed off, it just means someone else will have
to be pissed off x2
mircea_popescu: i make it a rule
to never be
the most frustrated/annoyed/etc one in
the room.
Mocky: i've
thought about brushing up on my ebonics
to
troll some interviews. show up in brand new nike airs and NBA jersey, use gangster analogies for everything while
talking computer science like everybody knows
that shit
Mocky: for bonus points,
train a black chix
to be specialist job applier
Mocky: plus many adverise remote
to begin with
Mocky: tru, but once
they want you, some will allow remote.
They've got
to fill
those recs by
the end of
the quarter!
Mocky: i'm past most of my frustration with it now, noticing
their weaknesses. if you can code A* on a white board in 10 minutes with no errors while
talking intelligently about
their beloved frameworks,
then not hiring you would be a struggle
Mocky: anyway, I don't
think specialist job applier is all
that hard
to do.
tech companies are ripe for being gamed
BingoBoingo: Well, a plumb, Most of
these "hosting" forums maybe see 20 posts a year from
the same 4 wankers spamming in a circle
BingoBoingo: <mircea_popescu> no, "handy" in
the sense of "mp already did
the work of enumerating
tghe venues so i can name one
that's handy on
those shoulders" << Out of
tophost.com, hostingdiscussion.com,
topsearch.com, warriorforums, and forums.hostsearch.com, it seems only Digitalpoint might be worth a revisit
Mocky: advice wise, i'm happy
to accept help. action wise, I'll
take
the action
mircea_popescu: Mocky you know,
there's way worse fates
than enslavement.
Mocky: not looking for help
to solve my own problems. I'll solve and
then contribute solutions
to other problems
mircea_popescu: diana_coman ever
thought about
taking in a 50yo male slave, mediteranean complexion ?
Mocky: when I look deeply enough into my pockets I see hunger about 6 weeks away, and my phone getting shut off and so I look for
the closest solution at hand
mircea_popescu: no, "handy" in
the sense of "mp already did
the work of enumerating
tghe venues so i can name one
that's handy on
those shoulders"

the above q is serious, btw. have someone represent you on digitalpoint / whatever hosting forums ? or you deem it premature ?
a111: Logged on 2018-12-12 19:01 Mocky: relatedly, i haven't even applied
to remote jobs yet. hand cranking
through local options still
a111: Logged on 2018-08-28 22:27 mircea_popescu: and i do mean ~every single last one~. i
talk
to every single chick on fetlife, meaning EVERY SINGLE ONE.
that's
the job of existence. nothing else passes muster.
mircea_popescu: i expect if attempted it'll immediately run into
the same problem pizarro is encountering, whereas bois will do ANYTHING WHATSOEVER, no matter how patently stupid and laughing impending beheading in
the face, just as long as it's NOT "talk
to a lot of people".
☟︎ Mocky: no mr. recruiter I don't have experience with Docker, as fun as
that sounds
mircea_popescu: obviously a dishelved incel finally pushed
to dating by desperation is going
to produce less meat
than a purpose-dedicated female, yes ?
mircea_popescu: ie, your problems, my dear farmer, come from
the fact
that you only
try
to kill cockroaches when "they get
to be
too many"
mircea_popescu: this is a facet of what i'm saying : rather
than have you "look for a girlfriend as best i can when i perceive i need one", how about you have a ~girl~ look for girlfriends ALL
THE
TIME, and you can pick one or a few when inclined.
mircea_popescu: "i have an employer" is
the substance of
the insanity here discussed. no, you don't HAVE jack. it has.
a111: Logged on 2018-12-12 19:02 mircea_popescu: Mocky i suspect "local job" is by now
thin wrapper over "social security handout"
mircea_popescu: not in
the sense of sticking with
the farm after dust bowl event.
mircea_popescu: there's exactly 0 reason
to ever care about some dollar-holding schmuck.
mircea_popescu: your issue is you keep creating
these unrequitted love relationships withj employers.
Mocky: but i'm
totally down
to give it a
try (after employed). it's gonna be hoot!
mircea_popescu: Mocky people get fired all
the
time, who gives a shit.
Mocky: my concern is
that often it
takes me a year
to build an accurate enough mental model
to be able
to solve problem which prompted
the lamp rubbing in a reasonable
time
mircea_popescu: nah. you're
the only one
that picks
those sets of
tickets.
mircea_popescu: look, "short latency", what's
that mean ? either it means you're cutting carrots one at a
time, or else it means you don't,
therefore perfectly possible
to have a specialist phone robot.
mircea_popescu: programmers are whores, but usually under a roof, not on
the street.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform nothing wrong with still providing
the bindings. what, so hard
to pick up phone ?
mircea_popescu: i know
this exists, whole outfits predicated on
this scheme.
Mocky: in
the past I've given serious consideration
to arbitraging out my own secular
tasks
to indians or whathaveyou
mircea_popescu: Mocky i suspect "local job" is by now
thin wrapper over "social security handout"
☟︎ Mocky: relatedly, i haven't even applied
to remote jobs yet. hand cranking
through local options still
☟︎ mircea_popescu: whoever feels like doing some saeculum work
that day draws a
ticket.
mircea_popescu: have a
team of specialist appliers
to jobs, dump all
the
task in some flatfile for you folks
to pass around encrypted, and
that's pretty much it.
mircea_popescu: it occurs
to me, pending how well
this goes,
that we could have a bourbaki
a111: Logged on 2018-12-12 15:10 mircea_popescu: hey Mocky_ how's
the hunt going ?
a111: Logged on 2018-12-11 20:09 BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: Also up for renewal are Mocky and nicoleci's shared hosting instances which you paid
through December
mircea_popescu: "why does joe have voucher hospital x accepts where moe does not ?" "cuz visa black platinum blalblabla" "wut ?" "his employer is in
the wot and vouches for him!"
mircea_popescu: meanwhile "money" in
the dubloon sense is going away (certainly away from
the hands of
the plebs)
to be replaced by... abstract version, plastic, db-money. so how does new man pay for doctor ? oh, he gives
to hospital ~the voucher his place of employment gave him~.
mircea_popescu: it's stupidly kept "closed", but what do you want
to know when
talking
to a doctor ? "the list of previous cases plox" right ? ie "wot ?"
mircea_popescu: think about it --
they "pay" doctors, in fredericus rex dubloons, while
they ALSO insist
they... do what ? document
their work, yes ? ie, construct
the basis of wot-based payment.

mircea_popescu: it seems
to me what has happened here was, a certain notion of money got shoehorned into evolving practice with nary a
thought given
to what works how.
