mircea_popescu: "richest guy on planet" could not afford tanks and missile launchers enough to dispose of "new anti-corruption unit" ?
mircea_popescu: not specifically. can reside wherever, but not much interest in country girl chained-to-the-land mentalities.
mircea_popescu: spend the usual 200 hours/week connected to irc and doing whatever clerical tasks provided. must be native chinese speaker with a reasonable command of english, she's not expected to take calls or anything in it.
☟︎ mircea_popescu: i can't say i've had the experience. but... sounds like they're trying to overperform to impress ? not a bad trait it itself.
mircea_popescu: definitely acceptable for first month anyway, i'd say.
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo item is markedly better in that it contains factual details ; still not great in that the details there present are disorganised, not evidently sorted into a complete tree with branches clipped by an obvious importance criteria and so on.
mircea_popescu: get the specific item, corp reg for sale by lawyer with no activity.
mircea_popescu: in juristidctions where that is the case, saner lawyers have pre-regd corps ready to be sold.
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo srsly, takes months to reg a corp in brazil ?!
mircea_popescu: whjat happened to teh brazil prospect ? sounded reasonable enough ?
mircea_popescu: and in other presentation suggestions, homemade pate on homemade bread with chilera de jalapenos and/or pickles. followed by a nice cigar with a rum.
mircea_popescu: reports are to the past, and are definite. they are not concerned with either the future or "possibilities"
mircea_popescu: apparently the redditards are taking very seriously their "become the hot topic of the 2010s" mission.
mircea_popescu: not enough sense to handle own gender, not enough sense to contribute to public conversation.
mircea_popescu: just about the item i thought was under discussion all along.
mircea_popescu: in entirely unrelated lulz : the "womenz in tech" dynastry of aparatchicks over at wikipedia is pretty lulzi : sue gardner's lengthy tenure ended (she was recycled to nsa honeypot "tor project") to be replaced by lila tretikov, two bit russki scammer gal who got sent off (over the whole "knowledge engine" failed wikimedia
http://btcbase.org/log/2017-10-26#1729324 attempt) to be replaced by katherine maher.
☝︎☟︎ mircea_popescu: gaussian is a decent "middle of the way" representation ; but not so useful when discussing specifically stuff to the extreme one side.
mircea_popescu: yes it's true that heat in a rod, or whatever diffusion phenomena are relatively smooth in this sense ; nevertheless em is the least smooth of the entire series.
mircea_popescu: anyway, i suppose the correct reference i sohulkd have given re smoothness was weierstrass.
mircea_popescu: it's not indefensible to suspect juche sparkplugs still fucking sparkplugs. perhaps.
mircea_popescu: ie, the very substance of the "fox can be found" argument. yes, if he uses sparkplugs you yourself sold him ; yes, if he lives in a space of gaussian noise ; yes if etc.
mircea_popescu: i suppose. though really the problem as far as interests here is this : presented with an "aberration", in natural noise you really can't tell whether relevant ; whereas in gaussian noise you generally can guess.
mircea_popescu: perhaps not the best term for it, as it's metaphorical rather than descriptive.
mircea_popescu: or for that matter, dja remeber that old "encrypted" penguin logo ?
mircea_popescu: apeloyee let me take the matter this way : are you familiar with how every "be a graphics artist" software package out there has a coinvolve-with-gaussian "effect" ?
mircea_popescu: not ~entirely~ passive, he makes some assumptions on the nature of "using hunter-provided equipment"
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform certainly ; but this would then match my criteria for "not by purely passive em methods" above.
mircea_popescu: however you define your function, the principal distinction between gaussian and natural noise is that the former is smooth.
mircea_popescu: the problem with "natural noise" is that there's so many local maxima.
mircea_popescu: (imo the best model of "real noise" in this sense is perusing the SETI reports, or else any major, indiscriminate dataset of radiotelescopy. THAT is how natural noise goes. with the occasional neutron star and the occasional "holy shit" scribbled in pen)
mircea_popescu: ie, it establishes maximum rate, not some kind of "minimum rate of relevancy"
mircea_popescu: apeloyee but this is relevant if you already know there's a signal there
mircea_popescu: if i actually transmit fg output, do you expect you'll ever find ?
mircea_popescu: apeloyee suppose what is transmitted is an equivalent of the "number stations" of old. minus, of course, the girly voice.
mircea_popescu: if you use wide spectrums, you get back to the problem of, "nature has more energy to burn than you do"
mircea_popescu: (no, ic was not made for ocmputers. ic was made for naval comms.)
mircea_popescu: apeloyee narrowness of band was the original attempt to get out of this. the narrower the band the "better" the reception in the sense of fewer natural perturbations. which is what drove the move to diodes and then ic.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform then i guess foxes use hunter-provided equipment.
mircea_popescu: apeloyee ammo is always expensive even if free, for a purely ecological reason. you don't want your space too filled with ordnance.
