talking head is just a former station chief
thestringpuller: mircea_popescu: at least you are managing demand, reminds me of

to worry about new customers off
the blocks.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform don't
throw out your draft letters! will have

the benefit of

fluffypony: I don't disagree with
their decision
to call it "nodejs", I
think
the nodejs developers are
the issue - htf do
they call
the binary "node" when clearly
that's a word
that may occur on
the command-line, being common in computin' circles
thestringpuller: maybe "babysit"? essentially
treating
the children as children, much babysitting

to
talk you out of your alcoholism

☟︎ mircea_popescu: i dunno how it goes in
the us, but eu folks are more
thna happy
to oblige, and also because humans are generally lazy most machinery mostly sits idle

to university
to "pay for" grad students etc.

tiger.
thestringpuller: i like how mircea_popescu is more cheerful during
the holidays
mircea_popescu: fluffypony: so now you have

the sould of
the unworthy with
the fire of a
thousand hells + 1 matchstick.

mircea_popescu: "my cock is
the right
tool for everything! it can fuck
things up, mess
them up, screw up and everything else i normally do!"

the poor entropy in kbd mashing. who knew!
nubbins`: if we do a fast phone number

mircea_popescu: the dispute (in
typical redditesque retardom) was whether 7 is "less likely" or "more likely"

mircea_popescu: nubbins`: way
to argue
the null case ;p << no but it was relevant in context.
mircea_popescu: nubbins` yeah, what part contradicts your
tender youthful mind ? :D

think he's kidding based on his comment history
