mircea_popescu: lots and lots and lots of mommy-hos nobody's ever said no to.
mircea_popescu: o shit. you're right aren't you. rnadom mommy-ho in costa rica had NEVER before experienced sexual rejection, had she. and like her...
mircea_popescu: yeah, perfectly possible my select works better for slits than pipes.
mircea_popescu: it's unworkable, but only nowadays that tmsr is here. before its invention, it was just as workable as pulling plow by hand.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform understand, that's ~strictly how "civilised" life "in a civilised society" works. "everyone's out there playing monopoly, but a lawyer is the only guy who read the inside of the top of the box" and so following.
mircea_popescu: ben_vulpes in general i find select women infinitely more dependable than select men ; this may be an artefact of my very female focus tho.
mircea_popescu: which interpretation, confucianism readily supports, for instance.
mircea_popescu: and similarly i could see myself having a problem with "the expansion of their commercial influence" if it's essentially aiming to make the world safer for old women.
mircea_popescu: there's something missing here. what exactly is being softly powered ?
mircea_popescu: "omg my future! it is ruined!" "wtf do you think futures are, like orgasms ?" "yeah... as a matter of fact... i do!"
mircea_popescu: anyway, the us went through this thing, middle class kids worried about "their future". is that what you mean by soft power ?
mircea_popescu: if their naked slut on heels scene sucks, they suck ; if not, we can talk. that's kinda the table ante for civilisation.
mircea_popescu: mats depends what you mean by "Soft power". if by soft power you mean something as seen in the graduate, or for that matter in that lulzy thing with a 19yo tom cruise pimping out de mornay & friends, ie what teh parents are doing, i'll tell you tis outright despicable.
mircea_popescu: and i've no problem whatsoever with china in the political sense. nor much clue as to actual life there, who knows, maybe they're great.
mircea_popescu: and btw : i'd like to watch a porno called "dilda das vegas".
mircea_popescu: imagine, $icon fo all people being spared the specialness of your snowflakeitude for a whole fucking hour! THE HORROR!\
mircea_popescu: exactly. "what would you do if you were in a train compartment with einstein ?" "i'd stfu"
mircea_popescu: very popular with comedians, aspiring niggers, etcetera.
mircea_popescu: "randomtard could ask meaningful question to $interesting person, who could in turn give out an answer that's both a)something he'd sing and b) something redditard could decode".
mircea_popescu: "i am so and so, ask me anything". final development on the whole "we are all one" nonsense.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform> the funniest bit is that it dun even need a saboteur << not one with an ama, at any rate.
mircea_popescu: well because 3rd gen is so overwhelmingly easy to fuck up.
mircea_popescu: or as ballas put it, "jobs other than science and medicine seem unreal to you"
mircea_popescu: but yes, the situation is not symmetrical -- western orcs produced mcmansion where eastern orcs produced very respectable math and literature, which is truly 2nd generation in shoes fare
mircea_popescu: separation seems to work splendidly on own power, just as soon as alternative is perceived.
mircea_popescu: but, as teh old article says, "but then again nothing in the world harder & more obdurate than the limits a brain sets for itself"
mircea_popescu: moreover, the issue is purely cultural, which is why the 1st gen in shoes keeps cropping up. trinque manifestly COULD meaningfully learn human lang once separated from his culture, as the logs bear testimony, and this is 1/1 ie 100%.
mircea_popescu: note that for all their "handed everyone their ass, flew to space" accomplishments, neither tribe is remembered today for anything.
mircea_popescu: this could have similarly been said of any of the other examples of history (the selgiuk turks, and the manchuko, readily come to mind)
mircea_popescu: and the recourse to inflation is rather plainly obvious, "we call it Joe's Principle because nobody could have possibly read Kant".
mircea_popescu: a whole cacophopnic symphony of little john smiths. what am i to do with this large collection of hardy country folk running around with their ummims and thurims ? EVEN IF THEY DO FLY TO SPACE!
mircea_popescu: they can't say anything that's worth remembering for the obvious reason that they can't read anything that's already there.
mircea_popescu: and that's a minor example. consider rothbard's utter failure to mean or matter, as sadly chronicled on trilema. yes, he's intellectually negligible, but the chief problem that renders him moot is the extreme poverty and ineptitude of his references! which is not his problem, but the 1st gen in shoes folks' problem, and the deep reason us can't and hasn't spoken in the forum of human thought.
mircea_popescu:
http://btcbase.org/log/2017-09-17#1715336 << this is very much not so, in that presence of euro buildings is still the standard by which you distinguish urban from rural agglomeration ; whereas "going to space" has managed to become the standard of nothing whatsoever.
☝︎ mircea_popescu: (the measure for "industrial civ" here used is, the type of answer to the problem of "i need three times the force". if it's "hire three times the coolies/horses/etc then pre-ind civ ; if it's "build bigger machine" it's industrial civ ; if the question not even conceptualized as such then it's not a civ, like say africa/polynesia/other subhumans)
mircea_popescu: heck, the swedes are so advanced in germansystem they don't even need money anymore!
mircea_popescu: europe has been an industrial civ for ~3 centuries now.
mircea_popescu: i'm not proposing the euroidiots aren't ; but this simple fact dun make non-euros anything else.
mircea_popescu: much like the russkis, what these other marginal orcs have to show for "their great empire" is a barely functional bezzle scheme. i don't even mean the financial part, intellectually speaking the whole us can be comfortably sat down in two lines' worth of "don't say nigger and state-god will provide", which is what, somehow different from "quote marx and wait for moscow" ?
mircea_popescu: broken lightbulb temporarily sits on shelf next to working lightbulb, "oh, did you miss the time i burned so very bright it was like 1`000 lightbulbs ?!?!?" suppose i did miss it. what came of it ?
mircea_popescu: but no, i don't think the item as described is useless. if you need a new key in less than a week / if your message lag is mostly this you've other problems to attend to.
mircea_popescu: tbh i liked my "all items are 4096 bit" world way better and wtf is this "multiplication doubles width" bs anyway!
mircea_popescu: precalculating 4k mods of 4 to 8kb single-bit items is a pain in teh arse even in simple space terms, what, ima have 16MB worth of ram/disk dedicated to just this PER mod ?
mircea_popescu: but no, this dead branch has been fully explored, nothing here.
mircea_popescu: yes, but as long as you do rsa, a ^ b mod m = either a ^ b or else, a ^ b - m. that's the complete story, there are no other cases. there's specifically no k * m parameter to be explored there.
mircea_popescu: fine. and the reason your mod does not reduce to "At most one substraction op" is "because i believe the product of two prime numbers 2kb each can in fact be less than 2^4095". that it ?
mircea_popescu: so then! calculating a ^ b mod 2^4096 is 0.26s ; calculating a ^ b mod m is 51.3s. that it ?
mircea_popescu: cuz your production does not fit the requisite form. produce item in requisite form, will gladly use that.
mircea_popescu: i dunno what you think the behaviour preserves, but i can assure you it doesn't.
mircea_popescu: you will refuse to be useful how many times in a row ?
mircea_popescu: soooOOOOooooOOOO.... calculating a ^ b is 0.26s ; calculating a ^ b mod m is 51.3s.
mircea_popescu: sooo.... calculating a ^ b is 0.26s ; calculating a ^ b mod m is 51.3s.
mircea_popescu: so, calculating a ^ b is 0.26s ; calculating a ^ b mod m is 51.3s.
mircea_popescu: is it or is it not true a modular exponentiation in current gpg takes, on your chosen machine, 0.26 seconds.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform so to try and extract actual reality from this : a ^ b mod m takes 0.26 seconds in koch writing ; same a^b mod m takes 51.3 on your box, notwithstanding a ^ b without any modding takes 1s ?
mircea_popescu: "it's ok, science will progress so fast nobody will ever wear shoes again!!!". yeah, i'm sure. and then it'll "progress" even faster than that huh.
mircea_popescu: in this sense, the perpetual "we don't deal with problems, we try to inflate them away" is a forced mistake of the socialist mind, brought about by its deffective tech stack. what the fuck else are they going to do, the only people to which "french culture" in its jimbo diderot reformulation appeals to are first generation in shoes functional illiterate tards.
☟︎ mircea_popescu: which is why it's always poor immigrants, and "3rd world" shitholes. cuz if you approximate a non-closed form solution by the number five, you get a certain set of perked ears, and they're going to always be in the back of the class.
mircea_popescu: obviously, it won't be as good, in the obvious sense that you don't need frenchmen to do it, can have it done in yugoslavia cheaper. and by yugoslavia i mean poland which is to say china.
mircea_popescu: the whole fucking POINT of french revolution was "we can make things -- soldiers, arms for those soldiers, culture for their fathers and wives, CHEAPER and MORE ABUNDANT if we chinese it." "but will it be as good ?" "i can't hear you over the kanzure of my superficiality"
☟︎ mircea_popescu: also arguably some of the ugliest tits ever to meet lens.
mircea_popescu: what this means in practice being that "the 4096 bit modulus of a 4096 bit number is obtained through at most one substraction op".
