ben_vulpes: Pierre_Rochard:
there's really not much similarity between js/lisp and mongo/datomic
Adlai: HIMYM and BrBa were great for wasting hours in
the army but i
try and waste
time productively
these days
Adlai: i'd actually rather read, which is why i don't like
tv series
that last for dozens of hours
Pierre_Rochard: ben_vulpes:
thank you,
this looks like a sane version of
the node/mongo stack, I’ll dig in
mircea_popescu: can i be an asshole just
this once and bother people ?
mircea_popescu: Adlai are you one of
those unfortunate souls
that prefers
to watch
than
to read ?
ThickAsThieves: check out
The Fades
too if you like creepy stuff Adlai
mircea_popescu: mats_cd03 exposure
to kids
that make all sorts of claims, of having banged a bunch of chicks, of having bought a bunch of fish etc idem.
ThickAsThieves: it was actually recommended
to me by someone else here, and
then when i watched it, i realized i had already seen it when it aired
Adlai: thank you
ThickAsThieves :)
Adlai: ah lol your nicks are
the same length
mats_cd03: exposure
to doods is inevitable on irc :(
mats_cd03: i know a few doods
that 'invested' in eth because 'its a good idea' and 'i want
to hedge if it becomes huge'
Adlai: mircea_popescu:
thank you for recommending a
tv series which i can finish in a single weekend
mircea_popescu: the only
thing certain in
this world is
the death of governments.
mircea_popescu: "IMO developments since March show
that
the concerns put forward
then
mircea_popescu: but
then he'd be stuck quoting
trilema instead of pretending like he's his own
thing, so...
ThickAsThieves: so it's basically a list of women
that are safe
to rape?
mircea_popescu: rather
than
the castrated "mother mary who
thoust be in heavens in all glory and power, ready my letter of what i would like
to see and DO IT"
mircea_popescu: ben_vulpes and i'm sure he's saying "here,
this is
the registry i made, contribute"
mircea_popescu: not even sure
there's enough bile in
the world
to wash it all away
mircea_popescu: incredible
the sheer amount of slime bitcoin attracts, jesus.
ThickAsThieves: “If people use bitcoin in a lazy, easily censorable way where
they are reusing addresses – which were always intended
to be one-time in
the design of
the system –
then
this creates a serious systemic risk in
that someone might
try
to order nodes, developers, and/or miners
to censor
the system.” ~Maxwell
mike_c: on
the other hand, he's all over
the bfl forums
mike_c: we should get
this ivan frimmel guy in here, i like
the way he yells at bitcoin devs.
Adlai: "kiss my cheek" :* "no
the other one"
mike_c: "Not
the place for neither profanity nor a discussion on profanity."
ben_vulpes: for API's we use liberator, which neatly
takes all of
the functions in a namespace and
turns
them into rest-y endpoints
Adlai: Apocalyptic: yes,
timberlake and seyfried iirc
ben_vulpes: Pierre_Rochard: clojure's mostly libs, less frameworks.
the stack we use is
http-kit for serving web apps, and datomic on postgres for data persistence.
Apocalyptic: <Adlai> In
Time was a fantastically bad execution of an interesting idea // pretty much
assbot: A complete
theory of economics pe
Trilema - Un blog de Mircea Popescu.
assbot: What
the WoT is for, how it works and how
to use it. pe
Trilema - Un blog de Mircea Popescu.
mircea_popescu: "it drops local connections like a whore
that's lost her crack pipe. something is badly broken and needs
to be fixed urgently."
ThickAsThieves: "This is well known, but swearing won't do anything except insult people and elicit responses like: If you
think you can do better
then do better."
assbot: over 50 hours
to sync localy Issue #3953 bitcoin/bitcoin GitHub
Adlai: isn't currency just a fungible
trust system
though?
Adlai: no, you just have
to beg for food in a different irc channel
Adlai: but action movies should have an ending
that ends, period
mircea_popescu: that should probably be redone, but with a sexploitation cast and perhaps
tarantino in charge.
Adlai: yes it's well-produced, lots of effects and sexy young actors. still a
terrible movie.
mircea_popescu: ThickAsThieves is
this
the one with
the cubical universe ?
Adlai: In
Time was a fantastically bad execution of an interesting idea
mircea_popescu: when enough people
trust you (people!!! not fucktards/slaves) you emancipate.
mircea_popescu: Adlai something like
that, but not exactly money based.
Adlai was
toying
the other day with an alternate world where everybody is born into indentured servitude, but can buy
their way
to freedom once
they've saved up enough
mircea_popescu: they should find a master when old enough
to interest anyone, and live
thus, as slaves.
mircea_popescu: they shouldn't have money, or
the vote, or for
that matter be able
to read at all.
Adlai: we'd just call it "that company
that handles my health insurance", or "that company
that pays
the garbage guy"
mircea_popescu: the solution is
to remove all
the means
to choice from
the mass.
Adlai: well we probably wouldn't call it "government" at
that point
mircea_popescu: but anyway, alkl
this aside, let's put
to bed
the "if government were structured as a business selling services
to citizens,
they could choose what
to "invest" in" idiocy.
Adlai: practically speaking, it doesn't matter if
they're pencildicked or horsecocked,
they're still raping our children
ThickAsThieves: <+mircea_popescu>
that's what "chomksy" means. "disappointed over how
the people running his ideology apportion
the proceeds of
the
theft
that ideology entails" /// i like
that
Adlai: they're not just attempting
though,
they're vastly successful at it
mircea_popescu: Adlai
that's what pencil dicks are :
those who attempt
to fool people as a means
to existence.
ThickAsThieves: well how can we social media and seo while making important choices about
the past?
Adlai: although i must say,
they're not really pencildicked if
they've managed
to fool so many people so much of
the
time
mircea_popescu: that's what "chomksy" means. "disappointed over how
the people running his ideology apportion
the proceeds of
the
theft
that ideology entails"
Adlai: my
takeaway from it is
that he's disappointed with how [his] government has mishandled
tax money over
the past decades, and disappointed in how "intellectuals" have been unable
to steer government
towards benefitting anybody other
than aforementioned pencildicks
mircea_popescu: he's not yet come up with a way
to ask people how intelligent
they are. what
the fuck.
ThickAsThieves: sounds like a horrible drunken philosophy conversation, inventing moments of choice in
the past
mircea_popescu: what is
this, senility day, buffett structures his business so as
to avoid
tax
then derps
that he pays less
than his secretary so his middle management shouild be
taxed more
ThickAsThieves: i gotta agree, if
thats
the
TLDR of Chomsky's
thing, it's useless babble at best
mircea_popescu: what
the fuck, "the answer was". chomsky conveniently forgets all
the problems inherent in FORMALISNG
these problems, in speech ?
mircea_popescu: Adlai we readily agree, provided by "current way government is conducted" you mean "pencil dicks who chiefly need
the government
to steal from others and give
them part of
the proceeds as a means of support derp about how
to formalise choice"
Adlai: if government were structured as a business selling services
to citizens,
they could choose what
to "invest" in
Adlai: eh, i don't
think it has
to be bullshit, it's just bullshit in
the current way government is conducted
mircea_popescu: they had all
the choices
they can meaningfully have. go
to work or don't. read or don't read, beat your wife or don't beat your wife, whatever.
mircea_popescu: this idea
that "people" should have "a choice" is bullshit of
the first degree.
Adlai: have an answer because
they never had a choice.
