pete_dushenski: ;;later
tell mircea_popescu are you paying
the lovely folks over at qntra ?
pete_dushenski: actually,
this raises a question i might've missed in
the logs...
pete_dushenski: kakobrekla: ah so we are measuring
traffic now? whats next, installing windows on our servers? << next is paying people
to write for qntra instead of assuming
they gangsta like us ;)
pete_dushenski: kakobrekla: so
the 1.2k a month guy wont be coming back? << rip little dude.
pete_dushenski: nubbins`: ask an albertan what he
thinks of a quebecer << albertans
think
that quacks have
the super duperest most corrupt construction industry and
the
the highest
taxes imaginable. both of
these are
true, but only relative
to
the rest of canada.
mthreat: if so, you can probably go by
the law library of
the school and ask
the person behind
the desk
to help you learn how
to research what you're
trying
to research.
mats_cd03: but it might be helpful for me
to learn more about it, so i appreciate
the advice
mats_cd03: my understanding of
the digest system is shallow, and i've been hesitant
to do any serious filtering in
the event i miss something
mthreat: not sure if
this helps... maybe you already figured it out.
mthreat: You can
then
take
taht west key number, and it cross-references other cases relating
to
that same issue.
mthreat: right. So let's say you have a case
that is relevant
to whatever
topic you're researching, for example, search and seizure of a vehicle or something. At
the start of
the case, it lists all
the west key items, and 1 or more of
those will be for
the search and seizure aspect.
mats_cd03: i'm currently using westlaw, which is referenced
to
the west key system
mthreat: so anyway,
the west key system is a classification system.
These days it's like 'tagging'. Each case is
tagged with a set of "west keys", which are numbers
that indicate what aspects of law
the case relates
to.
mthreat: first, it's been 15 years since I did
this. I was in prison, so books only, no computers. But I'm 99% sure
the west key systems is still
teh same, it's just online now. (It was online
then, actually, but I wasn't).
mats_cd03: i'd welcome any advice you have
to offer
mats_cd03: i suspect i'm overlooking something simple, but i guess ill figure it out after i get
through a few more judges
mthreat: mats_cd03: ok.. I asked because I did legal research and wrote briefs for 4 years.. maybe I can give some advice on legal research methods. Like using
the West Key system,e

xanthyos: frustrating when annihilation can be seen coming and is still allowed
to happen
xanthyos: it's an example of an implementation of bureaucracy happening "in
the field"
xanthyos: in
the empire it's more important
to be polite
than safe
xanthyos: political correctness has gotten so out of hand
that
they'd rather risk having ebola spread worldwide
than risk being called a racist by restricting a couple flights from west africa
BingoBoingo: Have
the outer shell of
the mechanical bull be
the musculature of a bull and issue
the same challenge
BingoBoingo: If
the animal rights people get worried about
the bull developing ptsd because it killed or mained a crowd on
television, substitute a mechanical bull.
BingoBoingo: One
ton of well muscled bovine fury versus scared members of
the genus homo?
BingoBoingo: Probably not.
The boll probably remains intact.
BingoBoingo: I am
tired and on
the verge of a food coma, but I wonder... When in
the name of extremitude and derp will a cooking reality show feature competitors

tenderloin filet steak off of a live bull.

mircea_popescu: cazalla if you don't have a static ip it will, yes. how badly unstatic is it ? if it's a.b.*.* locking it down
to just
those is reasonably useful anyway
mircea_popescu: meanwhile chinese made (and generally, better)

the
trick you're not sharing here is
that you'll be adding mining
to
this later on, huh?
ben_vulpes: further research indicates
there was actually onboard control.
ben_vulpes: if i recall correctly, japan's orbital vehicle got into orbit with no onboard control, just a gravity
turn.
ben_vulpes: in
the classic sense of
the word,
though.
ben_vulpes: they had plenty of computers back
then!
ben_vulpes: you can do some amount of
trajectory planning by hand,
too.
mircea_popescu: how ?
they didn't have good computers in
the 50s,
they weren't much inclined
to use
them, etc. im betting
they used
the artillery method
ben_vulpes: i suspect
trajectory planning had lots of sims run. fuel combinations, maybe a few.
ben_vulpes: i never got a good answer on how much monte carlo work went into
the 60's space programs during
the design phase and how much was back of
the envelope estimating.
