asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: i don't know for a hard fact, but there was that ukr.
mircea_popescu: i'm not about to hire any convicted child rapists to run my kindergarten, shock and awe.
mircea_popescu: i fail to see what this has anything to do.
mircea_popescu: i don't see how this is any kind of problem.
Framedragger: http://btcbase.org/log/2017-04-21#1646829 << i should review logs, but -- assuming we're talking about the same internet / ip aspce -- i've been sceptical of this. there's always an upstream that can cut you off, neh? if no upstream, you gotta somehow be tier 1 - how. ☝︎
Framedragger: (i.e., yeah okok.)
Framedragger: mk. i see. optimisationz
Framedragger: asciilifeform: oh shit. i looked at snipped of code, thought, gcc wouldn't catch this, that's all. sorry.
asciilifeform: i.e. is effect of 'optimization'.
asciilifeform: Framedragger: and if you read the linked item, 'On Linux, I tested GCC 4.9, 5.4, and 6.3, as well as Clang 3.6, 3.8, and 4.0. None were affected. ' << applies strictly to recent clang, seems.
asciilifeform: no, i meant the use of shitflare per se.
shinohai: http://pagesix.com/2017/04/21/no-caitlyn-jenner-is-not-posing-nude/ <<< The most relieving headline I've seen all week.
mircea_popescu: i didn't get nuttin.
a111: Logged on 2015-04-07 02:35 asciilifeform: 'From my conversations with Ubiquiti, I have found that they claimed that it's alright to refuse to provide source code to GPL-licensed software if "This decision was taken with the security of the users in mind". Furthermore, my conversations were endlessly delayed by the supposed necessity to forward my query to another, unnamed, team.' << now we can probably say what.
mod6: I'm also running ent/dh against 1.2Gb of collected fg entropy, but this time I did it with: `dd iflag=fullblock if=/dev/ttyUSB0 of=fg1.fg4.bin`
mircea_popescu: and i thought they were trying to arrest the dude since day 0, what.
asciilifeform: thread started with 'does one pilot v. two pilots matter as much as i suspect it does' tho
asciilifeform: and i dun think you can even GET a 'cessna' with 1 set of controls.
a111: Logged on 2017-04-21 05:50 davout: yeah, i can't think of any multi-crew single piston engines
davout: i was told that the risk of flying non-commercial single engines was roughly equivalent to motor-biking
pete_dushenski: i guess i like my pilots like i like my kidneys. not 'rational' or 'efficient' but what can i say. then again, it's not like i'll be flying anything other than commerical for the forseeable future
davout: i think single engine turbo prop could be multi-crew
davout: yeah, i can't think of any multi-crew single piston engines ☟︎
davout: i don't think it does matter that much, there's usually two pilots because there's more buttons
pete_dushenski: davout: does one pilot v. two pilots matter as much as i suspect it does (ie. quite a lot) ?
davout: i don't think it makes any difference from a safety pov
mircea_popescu: eh, i dun specifically care. just leaving it in the log for the next time usg goes "oh usg.twitter has 4398573498759834795 users"
mircea_popescu: i hear that';s the ancient spelling of "china"
mircea_popescu: and in other "holy shit i love this place" lulz : i bought three fresh coconuts for a thousand colones today ; and half a dozen superb riple mangos for two. this comes to almost 10 kgs of produce for six dollars total. then further down the street proceeded into telas tienda, selling authentic silk brocade, five bux the double-length metre. and it is silk, straight from the worm's ass. it burns, the grain feels right, you nam
asciilifeform: i never quite understood why american motorcyclists wear'em
pete_dushenski: i'm also cheap ukrjoo so not really saying much
asciilifeform: i gotta ask : would pete_dushenski actually pay 60k $ for that rusty truck ?!
a111: Logged on 2017-04-20 21:19 mircea_popescu: i know i'd pay a premium to wipe my ass with argentina for years to come.
a111: Logged on 2017-04-20 20:16 pete_dushenski: http://btcbase.org/log/2017-04-20#1646492 << very much enjoyed this thread, even though (because) i needed to re-read it a dozen times before it ~almost~ made sense
mircea_popescu: i know i'd pay a premium to wipe my ass with argentina for years to come. ☟︎
a111: Logged on 2017-04-20 13:52 mircea_popescu: yes. it doesn't mean "money-as-property" in the sense of "old destroyed world, i get to keep my money". it means money as property in the sense of, money IS A PROPERTY of other objects. like being the color red.

ben_vulpes: i'll take one busted 20-year old f350 tyvm
asciilifeform: can't speak for others, but i find it difficult to take such a fella seriously.
BingoBoingo: I have no idea why flashlight spam, also recieve said genera in spades.
asciilifeform: for a supposed enemy of the empire, to host that liquishit ( incidentally it is produced in concert with traditional spammers, i have an entire mailbox that has become unusable because it takes in flashlight spam faster than it can be removed ) is a disgrace.
trinque: there's a decent store 10min away that stocks about as well as newegg, can go get something once I have the apu2 and see what will fit nicely in the case.
asciilifeform: i disrecommend the use of the sd card hole, it is (unsurprisingly) agonizingly slow.
trinque: also have an apu2 on the way which will be a dedicated gentoo+musl. I'll write up the unboxing and gentooing of that guy when it arrives.
trinque: I dug a glibc trench for now while I fiddle with musl+X
mircea_popescu: i guess so. 80yo by now ?
mircea_popescu: yes. it doesn't mean "money-as-property" in the sense of "old destroyed world, i get to keep my money". it means money as property in the sense of, money IS A PROPERTY of other objects. like being the color red. ☟︎
asciilifeform: i dun see any finery, but only 2 symbols of which mircea_popescu seems to say i do not know the meaning.
mircea_popescu: that doesn't really enter into any of this. you asked for a disjunction i gave you the genus and specific difference.
asciilifeform: money-is-property, as i understand , is the old, demolished civilized world.
mircea_popescu: and i don't mean "cultural pockets" as in, people from chicago talk funny. i mean isolated cultural pockets as in, the jefferson-hamilton debate of 1700 is still live and kicking in 2000, argued in the sense of dumb rehashing by the same people in different costumes.
mircea_popescu: what can i tell ya.
asciilifeform: i picked it up because afaik it is quite accurate. the 4 stages are quite distinguishable .
mircea_popescu: i really recommend against using yarvin's mental models for anything, they're well broken.
mircea_popescu: i ended up with both mapping to "orlol" in my head now i can't distinguish irl.
asciilifeform: first time i hear of a rotblatt.
mircea_popescu: i thought carter was a drunk.
mircea_popescu: can anyone dig up a contact for the fellow ? i'd actually do an interview.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform you know i've been thinking about the conway thing. it's nigh on fascinating, a perfect case of "aging engineer falls into female culture" to use the terminology of http://trilema.com/2017/menstruation-lulz/
ben_vulpes: by which i mean a testbed for hooligans with GPUs, bad attitudes, and a cursory interest in adversarial image generation.
danielpbarron: http://i.imgur.com/VnfAvHih.jpg << text linked above came from this
a111: Logged on 2017-04-19 20:24 mircea_popescu: danielpbarron it's funny how there's always a "we" ; and it's also funny the thing's always structured in the same manner. brings to mind say http://trilema.com/2013/in-which-i-discuss-things-i-have-no-idea-about/
asciilifeform: i'd imagine at this point in the neverending 20th c. it'd be obvious at least to literate folx, that this type of 'power grab' is about as great an idea as grabbing live hv cable .
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: possibly ~now~ you can picture why asciilifeform's picture of conway switched , at that time, from 'hmm, but vlsi!' to 'i wonder where conway stole the credit for vlsi'
danielpbarron: i just watched Brazil the other night, maybe the reference is not as obvious as i thought
asciilifeform: danielpbarron: what am i looking at
danielpbarron: http://i.imgur.com/aaRxUD1h.jpg << for asciilifeform, i snapped this yesterday near Williamsburg MA. also possibly interesting to BingoBoingo (can you identify the vehicle i was driving)
mircea_popescu: i was just observing that intel dug out stuff in your linkpile making my earlier position that less tenable.
mircea_popescu: no i know.
mircea_popescu: danielpbarron it's funny how there's always a "we" ; and it's also funny the thing's always structured in the same manner. brings to mind say http://trilema.com/2013/in-which-i-discuss-things-i-have-no-idea-about/ ☟︎
asciilifeform: i dun have a 100K$ injection mold.
mircea_popescu: i've no idea, not much of a fan
ben_vulpes: "trees", but to answer the first question i suppose a resounding "no"
ben_vulpes: here i was thinking that rooting around in the dirt for grubs was for teh poors
asciilifeform: the immense difficulty of 'human' getting small qty. of just about anything that doesn't live in lolmart, is why i piss on people who piss on 'ebay' etc.
asciilifeform: (why ? i have nfi. maybe americans never learned how to grow it..? srsly? 19th c. process )
ben_vulpes: asciilifeform: i'm really enjoying the notes from scintillator quest
asciilifeform: HfO2 << lol, where do i buy.
mircea_popescu: i guess this is why sci-fi is pulp rather than literature.
mircea_popescu: then again i did no math for this expect.
mircea_popescu: anyway, run it at 70 C or so, i expect electron cloud will just eat it up, no crystal lattice deffects induced
asciilifeform: same reason, i found, using ZnS is a mistake
mircea_popescu: i hear drupal has a library for it.
asciilifeform: traditional geiger tubes, i rejected for this ( they 1) wear out quickly 2) require ~1kV dc, which has to come out of an oscillating boost converter 3) need very energetic photon to work, which means collecting radioactive crud locally, you typically won't be able to post it )
mircea_popescu: last time i looked at this it wouldn've been 1k+
asciilifeform: i was floored
asciilifeform: in other noose, i have a quote from chinese crystal grower, 3x3x10mm LYSO crystals @ ~8 usd ea.
mod6: I'm doing that test next.
mod6: Framedragger: alf's discovery of the padding flag wasn't found until after i had started this collection.
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: I haven't seen cat since last year. Crediting kill to cat based on there being parts not eaten.
asciilifeform: ( then again, i have no accurate idea, perhaps without cats it would be wholly unmanageable )
asciilifeform: i have half dozen living in the underbrush here and they dun seem to make any palpable dent in the tree rat problem
asciilifeform: i gotta borrow this d00d's cat
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: in related news, Last night I saw a baby bunny hopping through the yard adorably darting in and out of cover. This morning I find bits of baby bunny fur scattered in a narrow open area between structures. Cat 1 Breeders 0
asciilifeform: i dun need to know what lincoln had for breakfast every day of his life, to say 'scum'.
mircea_popescu: i'm not proposing you should do anything. i am pointing out a mechanism you describe is a) part dreamdust and b) not workyirl.
asciilifeform: incidentally this was the very substance of , iirc, nixon's argument to somebody re why he ought to bow. 'you don't have access to the mega-seekritz, how can you know that i am scum'
asciilifeform: i ain't gonna. period.
mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2017-04-19#1646126 << this, incidentally, is SHOCKINGLY false. when polling the rat in the box, his clue as to how the empire is being run is very very nil. i get this is counterintuitive, but get this : romanians thought the same "common sense" nonsense and ended up with http://trilema.com/2011/procesul-ceausescu/ ☝︎
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: in point of fact i dealt with mice for years and have plenty of respect.
