mircea_popescu: asciilifeform the main program loop, basically.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform i just can't grasp wtf is going on in the rakim skulls.
mircea_popescu: i am vaguely amazed they don't have a "special" thread to handle what x does anyway, ie kbd buffering./
mircea_popescu: which is ~safe, because the os doesn't need help anyway.
mircea_popescu: so basically they made a thread to "replace" the work the os does with the tcp stack, for instance.
mircea_popescu: a) none of these are respawned if killed ; b) all of these die within the second if any dies ; c) none of these are capable to multispawn under load.
mircea_popescu: so, idiots made "threads" because hey, they read on expert-sex-change that threads are better. the server thereby has a networking thread, an event manager thread, and a db thread.
mircea_popescu: quite on point, let me tell you about this "threading" model minigame is currently battling with.
mircea_popescu: "a software engineer is the person solving a problem you didn't know you had in a manner you don't understand."

mircea_popescu: they spend too much time on curated usgardens.
mircea_popescu: also there's not a huge crime rate driving "inseguridad", also there's absolutely no market for uber, and so fucking following.
mircea_popescu: also there's no "global warming" happening in orcistan, and also pedophiles didn't suddely become interested in highschoolers.
mircea_popescu: no.
mircea_popescu: but for the record, the notion of "a full rack" WITHOUT a c block is laughable.
mircea_popescu: failure is not a possible end result here.
mircea_popescu: aha.
mircea_popescu: orlando, florida co. and exactly biofilm not dc, as a separate concern.
mircea_popescu: also, hostdime is not on the list.

mircea_popescu: romania never actually had a guild in the sense seen now in the us ; not even during the ceausescu times.
mircea_popescu: ftr : the "bus depot jokes" are not an equivalent here. they are crass, which is to say employ a certain drastic sort of romanian. but otherwise "balada pizdei" was written by topirceanu, "povestea pulii" by creanga, these are all "intellectuals" ie of the literary canon.

mircea_popescu: he's perhaps the best example in this vein, even if not as well known as say MGM cartoon division.
mircea_popescu: spyked silviu gherman could do it, if anyone ever told him to. and by told i mean a certain thing, which brings us right back to "cow's milk will be wasted without management with enough sense to milk it"

mircea_popescu: iirc, they've all been struggling for economic relevancy in the past decade, if this even vaguely proves itself as a mass movement the whole shitshow's canned overnight.
