think
mircea_popescu: davout oh also, did you put your
trip in
the blockchain ? so
the btc community can be really
tight kniggit it seems ?
davout: i do have a movie of fanny being attacked by clownfish
tho
xmj: somehow
the BTC community is very
tightly knit, it seems.
xmj: fluffypony: for lulz, did you see
the couple getting married "on
the blockchain" ?
xmj: youre alive again
too
Vexual: immma ut
that in my little popescue journal here
Vexual: did vulpes mom really
turn off his computer?
mircea_popescu: now
this is a point. decoupled risk and reward => moral hazard
ben_vulpes: it's not
that software doesn't smack
the operator, but
that
the operator smacked is rarely
the one who wrote it in
the first place.
ben_vulpes: <asciilifeform> ben_vulpes: if software were
to start behaving like metal cut, most of
the extant practitioners would fellate
their pistols. << ask
the maintainers of legacy software how
they feel
ben_vulpes: what is
this point of socrates' re marriage?
decimation: lol really
the 'chipper' in
that case should be labeled 'justice 'system''
decimation: "I swear on my magic
that I will not put Hermione Granger into
the Asplundh in
the courtyard," Harry said solemnly, << lolwtf
mircea_popescu: and where
the gates
to careers are, how
they look and how
the ywork
mircea_popescu: notrly. interns generally learn how
to stop drifting aimlessly around
BingoBoingo: I might play with
the archives again if
their quarentine page gets
too big...
assbot: Harry Potter and
the Wonderful Wood Chipper, a harry potter fanfic | FanFiction
mircea_popescu: still
takes space and loads
the page with a lot of html
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo
the only
third option i ever saw
that made sense was on pg's site. J F M A M J J A S O N D line under line under line
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: Yeah it's been a year. I also
tried
the dropdown
thing, but... I rather like
the comprehensive page of its own
thing.
mircea_popescu: if
the archives bother you you can just make a dropdown
decimation: asciilifeform: when Kalman Reti mentioned
that
the CADR had 'loadable microcode', is he implying
that
the early stuff (not ivory) had an underlying 'risc' like core?
mircea_popescu: "Marketing is hard. We wrote an ebook." fucking shot
these idiots already
mircea_popescu: ben_vulpes: le
travail, c'est le
travail << i like how philosophical marriage makes one. socrates had a point.
mircea_popescu: one of
the biggest promises of hard ai is
the computer
that slaps
the human upside
the head
decimation: it is difficult
to imagine a symbolics user in
the late '80s with his persistent global namespace watch someone using DOS

ben_vulpes: homegrown software hacking
thinger:
tools make imaginative, creative engineers regret career choices.
ben_vulpes: homegrown low-budget machine shop:
tools will refuse
to stay in
true for any significant period of
time.
ben_vulpes: <asciilifeform>
TheNewDeal: Feel like I working in a chinese sweatshop for
the last half hour << i am glad
to learn
that i am not
the only one who ended up constructing his own personal chinese sweatshop
to
toil in... << and how is
this different from
the making of a computer useful for software development?
decimation: the other
thing
that interested me about
the symbolics video was
the fact
that
the machine had a global namespace
decimation: it's amusing
that
the solder paste machine is pretty much just a giant squeegee, but all dressed up
decimation: yeah I was reading about how
they ditched laser cut designs for photoetching
BingoBoingo: <asciilifeform> peristaltic pump also stretches
the
tube if
the business end is clogged (as it inevitably becomes) << In
the prototypical models Magnesium citrate
tends
to clear
this well.
decimation: yeah I suspect as
the ID of
the
tube approaches
the size of
the balls weird stuff would happen
decimation: couldn't you construct a really
tiny paristaltic pump?
BingoBoingo: <asciilifeform> (then i'd have
to explain how
this doesn't work, sadly, and for nonobvious reason) << it could work if instead you went for living fabrication machines as
the Flinstones did.
TheNewDeal: hahaha I hardly constructed one. Just borrowed a
tiny screwdriver from
the
tools
that ship with
the machine
decimation: is it because it would smash
the solder balls?
nubbins`: read
that earlier, i have no dial
test indicator ;(
TheNewDeal: use
them for a few
things at work. One is
to make sure
that gears are meshed well enough
nubbins`: odd coincidence, my dial
test indicator showed up
today
TheNewDeal: may have just fixed my dial indicator. Feel like I working in a chinese sweatshop for
the last half hour
decimation: looks
to me
that a likely leakage path would be
the upstroke phase - air could leak around
the piston
decimation: yeah I guess
there is no air in
the chamber, so it's all incompressible
decimation: So if you can control
the fine pump pressure dynamically you might be able
to prevent
the 'drool' problem
