echelon: i worked for hbo, setup
their forensic watermarking service
echelon: for automated deployments and integrated
testing
mircea_popescu: "echelon hi, i need
to read a structured spreadsheet
type of file
that's in binary, basically involves reading
the record which is
the header information as
to how
the records are structured, and
then reading
the records. how would i go about doing
this?" and so on ad infinitum.
mircea_popescu: lol. srsly, other
than hipstering about, do you actually do anything ?
mircea_popescu: "[04:17] <echelon> so has anyone
tried launching a rocket from a balloon?"
echelon: mircea_popescu: i was
the one
that originally did
the documentation for setting up hidden service fallback nodes, before
the client had built-in support for it
mircea_popescu: not really so much wanting
to "transform" anything other
than
the misfortunate situation where
the system doesn't seem
to recognize
their mental picture of
their own station. in
the sense
that why does it see
them so low!!!

trinque: we are a media publication. our power and capital comes from
the number of visitors we have
to
the site. we aim
to
transform
through culture. if normal people cannot visit our site we are not accomplishing our goal
echelon: well, i dunno anything about
the interchannel politics
mircea_popescu: nanotube is
the dood
that was going
to fix gribble
to work with deedbot,
then didn't. used
to have some clout,
then a little clout, by
today indistinguishable from w/e last months; crop of wanna-bes, fluffypony, josh garza, whatever.
mircea_popescu: the reason you can't up yourself is
that nobody here cares about
the people who rated you
there (indeed, some are known scammers, some are entirely unknown nobodies etc).
mircea_popescu: echelon deedbot imported gribbles ratings back in
the day.
trinque: you are not rated.
try introducing yourself first.
mircea_popescu: in
that obvious is just as obvious as any other obvious.
a111: Logged on 2018-11-01 17:44 asciilifeform: i had
to algebraize
the
thing , and have just
the right rng bits flip in head ,
to get
the 'ceiling
tiles' ( why didn't mircea_popescu get'em in '15 ? )
mircea_popescu: bullcosby suppose you just read all of
trilema as a goodboi, and let it change what you are, rather
than expect you're important enough for your malformed desires
to be gratified.
echelon: how do i identify myself
to deedbot, it says my key is already registered
mircea_popescu: and
this does not apply
to
teaching bois math because ? math also won't fix
the underlying problem
that resulted in
their having
to learn how
to
think properly in
the first place.
mircea_popescu: bullcosby
that's my slavegirl on my roof of my buenos aires residence a few years ago.
mircea_popescu: if you're willing
to
teach bois math, why aren't you willing
to sew girls a new coat.
mircea_popescu: the articulation of
the comparison is (brains as in w/e makes males valuable) vs (whatever makes females valuable). as a gender construct.
mircea_popescu: you wanna fix
the brains
that are, or replace
them with some other brains
that aren't ?
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform anyway, do you see how
this relates
to
the ia/ai discussion ?
mircea_popescu: well in practice i havent ; in
theory i dunno, cuz we're believers in
the human spirit and haven't yet
turned down someone because he's black or whatever ?
mircea_popescu: the body ain't linear, a certain % works one way
then... exactly.
mircea_popescu: the pnw is where
the liberal mares are "outta school", no moar patriarchy
to beat
them until
they either die or perform at
their own liberal option.
mircea_popescu: ellajanex 23F Undecided "You wrote a whole message in
the header? I can’t even read
that shit." LordMPofTMSR "Think of it as an intelligence
test.
That you're failing." ellajanex "I’m out of school i don’t need
tests or games lmao" <<
there, might
that substitute ?
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform you know, where
the liberal mares run free
trinque: Mocky: getting
to it right now
BingoBoingo: Even if
the source material is blurry, incomplete, and associated with very strong feelings however inconsistent
they are.
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: Well, gotta
tell
the history with fidelity
to
the memory.
mircea_popescu: good fucking
thing
these morons "progress&civil rights for women". because
totally, living in a concrete box @"the beautiful" as a sex slave so much beats being a 1950s housewife
Mocky: trinque, is
there anything wrong with my pending withdrawals from a few days ago or do you just need
to hand crank em?
mircea_popescu: in fairness,
there's also
the occasional gem. "Forced conduct prohibits genuine relationships" no shit. it's like reading
the charlie chaplin version of carnegie.
a111: Logged on 2018-11-03 22:38 mircea_popescu: Mocky so i guess next step is make an appointment with
their minister of
technology, industry, or whatever
the fuck, explain
to
the secretarial overseer you end up seeing
that
the republic is in principle willing
to do some
tech
transfer help
them become a real country, exchange confused nods and handshakes and set
the bozo bit on
the ball of faux carpeting yarn pretending
to be a country ?
mircea_popescu: "Mircea_popescu made
the point
that, useful people are useful and not useful is useless" ; "Qatar has no sense about opportunity" ; "Bingoboingo provided an update on qntra
that, Canada has no bud
to sell"
this shit is fucking histerical.
ben_vulpes: provided
the shit getting done is largely
the same
time and again.
ben_vulpes: one of
the
things dbs are good for is
the shared spreadshit and enforcement of only one way of saying
things. razoring off places
to get creative is a boon
to getting shit done.
BingoBoingo: ben_vulpes: What I've mostly been running into is archaeology,
three people saying
the same
thing
three different ways.
ben_vulpes: BingoBoingo: i certainly will on both points, although not
tonight. i don't see sticking subscriptions into a db as a particularly difficult
thing at all.
lobbesbot: BingoBoingo:
The operation succeeded.
BingoBoingo: ben_vulpes: Also let me know if you have any questions about how
the clarifying notes were cut from
the listing of customer accounts should you have
the
time. I would like
to kill
the idea of a pile of clarifying notes being something every account has and restrict account particular notes
to being a rare
thing noted for eventually bringing an account into concordance with standards, however
they fall.
BingoBoingo: ben_vulpes: Let me know if
ther is anything I can do
to help
ben_vulpes: asciilifeform: i will let you know if i need more
time
to finish
the august audit by
tomorrow eve.
ben_vulpes: mod6: i ask for your corroboration of a log line in
that letter.
☟︎ lobbesbot: ben_vulpes: Sent 3 days, 4 hours, and 59 minutes ago: <asciilifeform> didja find
the eggog ? you estimated 'wednesday', and
the day is nearly at end..
