mircea_popescu: "These are
the Functional Kingdoms, including Haskellia, Ocamlica, Schemeria" ok
that's not bad.
ben_vulpes`: mircea_popescu: regarding
the north american indians - is
their land
theirs? is it not granted
to
them by
the arms which surround, and worthless even at
that?
BingoBoingo: jurov:
that would be advice for BingoBoingo, jurov: hire doppelganger, walk out << I'll decline
to comment on whether
this option has been considered already...
mircea_popescu: ben_vulpes: but only
those who committed
the crime can be held liable for it -
there's no sense in holding "a people" or "a community" liable for actions of
their ancestors, is
there? << in
that case what makes
the indians' land
the indians' ?
they can't be held liable for
their ancestors appropriations.
mircea_popescu: ben_vulpes: (also horrible is how os x handles new windows for application a when application a is full screen on a monitor somewhere: nondeterministically!) <<< i'd be happy if people just came

treatment of focus
mircea_popescu: boo hoo racism, horribru how
they hired

bounce: (which is of course
the embodiment of
the white man's evil nature
that needs urgent atonement, and nevermind
that
the scary brown people down in africa practiced it just as much if not more... and
to an extent still do)
bounce: happens all
the
time. like "compensation" for slavery
that happened hundreds of years ago.
ben_vulpes: ;;later
tell pete_dushenski but only
those who committed
the crime can be held liable for it -
there's no sense in holding "a people" or "a community" liable for actions of
their ancestors, is
there?

two monitors and osx is crazy with window management
decimation: yeah I've been eyeing
the useless 'super' binding
decimation: I did
take your suggestion of switching caps lock and ctrl, makes my 'emacs pinky' go away.

decimation: ben_vulpes: using emacs on a mac - I find
the most fustrating
thing is
the "C-up arrow"
ben_vulpes: try working with a
text editot full-screened, nubbins`.
decimation: Note
that even in
the 'dark ages',
the employer accepted her skills and hired her.
nubbins`: hard
to beat osx app expose for workflow
decimation: mircea_popescu: Your "a woman's story" link is a nice story, but it does not present a picture of usg employment law
today.
ben_vulpes: i read
too much about lisp machines
this weekend
TheNewDeal: windows usability is just going
through
teh roof
TheNewDeal: I found it mildly convenient
that you could drag and smash
the windows
to
the edge and get it
to cover half
ben_vulpes: just enough
to uncover
their wholesale inadequacy and go back
to
the miserable rodential dragging and resizing of windows around monitors
ben_vulpes: "but
there are
tools for manipulating your workspace!"
ben_vulpes: i started playing with
tiling window managers recently,
to
the horror of
the golden cage people surrounding me
ben_vulpes: i'm coming
to
the conclusion
that i'm an alien

ben_vulpes: asciilifeform: do you have background for naggum's "Free Software is a protest movement. Open Source is just a weapon." comment in
that "business plan"
thread?
TheNewDeal: At my old job, got
to see a manufacturing process for high strength power lines (for longer spans
than normal, like a wide river).
They had
to extrude
these extremely fine

that died from smoking cannabis
mircea_popescu: none of
this
to propose smoking is healthy or anything
mircea_popescu: keep a diet for a month,
then eat all
the food you didn't eat in one sitting. course you'll burst your stomach. etc
nubbins`: probably need an ambulance around
the
third pack
mircea_popescu: no, but
the damage in smoking 700 ciggs in one go has more
to do with
the one go
than with
the ciggs
mircea_popescu: then after a month have all
the radiation you missed out on
