mircea_popescu: certainly the btc musl thing is
a major cornerstone in that vein.
mircea_popescu: but i confess it'd still be
a great thing if i actually had
a canned answer for "oh, eulora doesn't run on my system". and it'd be lovely if it'd just happen to consist of you know, $item tmsr actually wants to take over.
mircea_popescu: that's how things go. first, cynical fraud. then,
a generation grown up on cynical fraud -- all mongoloids.
mircea_popescu: i credit watching "women behind bars" right before fading off for
a nap earlier.
shinohai: Perhaps they will find bright minds to repair their replacement DNS, which broke in
a day.
Framedragger: ^ re above, last noob note, so [citing HN so grain of salt, etc.] this one gene (Cas9) has two functions: locating
a dna sequence matching given chunk of rna, and cutting dna at that location. this substr() and insert_at_location().. together with some other genes it probably makes the whole thing turing complete. (~known, but particular demonstrations are interesting.) (also probably in the logs heh.)
a111: Logged on 2017-02-24 17:52 mircea_popescu: ahaha oh this is delishious. "My work has appeared in LA Weekly, Vice, Curbed, Complex, ANIMALS, The Daily Dot, and LosAngeles.com" << dork quit law school because tucker max said to and is now
a relationships advicerist.
a111: Logged on 2017-03-22 00:29 mircea_popescu: asciilifeform no, that's my point, OUT OF THE FUYCKING QUESTION she can, or that any one who was actually
a lawyer would even consider trying.
mircea_popescu: aged female with countess gargauni on
a third world income.
adlai: on further inspection there are
a few small pieces of scotch tape holding the mailing labels in place. if you didn't put these there, then maybe the entire envelope was replaced?
mircea_popescu: the conclusion being that i'm pretty sure they no longer ~actually manufacture~ the quartz tuning forklets, but instead just produce
a soup of the things and then filter the functional ones out or some such
Framedragger: "Note: Both RNG-TW (Analogue) modules must be present and in working order during power-up, or FUCKGOATS will remain in
a SAD state (steady RED lamp.) When performing basic tests, start with
a powered FUCKGOATS, with BOTH RNG-TW (Analogue) modules installed. "
adlai: following the instructions to the letter results in
a fully-sad FG until the final stage
adlai: aha, i can fool it: if
a module is removed while it barfs, then it keeps barfing as half-sad
shinohai wonders if he should build
a Russian-style palace with tit-shaped domes .....
shinohai: !~later tell jurov Could you have
a peek at my order #14214 when you haz time plz?
mircea_popescu: (this may sound like it's
a joke. it is not
a joke. review your standard issue systems design manual (don't tell me they forgot to issue you one!))
mircea_popescu: by the time she's 18 she ~absolutely~ must be working at
a profit. no matter the fuck what.
Framedragger: when compared, it *is*
a clear KPI cf. "uni performance" etc. heh.
mircea_popescu: but the solution is relatively simple anyway. "honey, you're not going to """college""", you're going to either riadh or beijing, and if by the time you're 20 you're not either married or coming back with
a million you're not my daughter.
Framedragger: anyway it's
a fucking trend. 'professors' jacking off on fucktrumpianism in "unis"
shinohai actually still has
a bitcoind with shiva baked in on
a lab lappy but is still learning the schema bits ...
ben_vulpes: shiva might be
a better tool for wiggling random code paths anyways
a111: Logged on 2017-04-02 22:22 mircea_popescu: i very much doubt it. the time for unsolicited manuscripts was sometime in between the summer of 90something and the autumn of the same 90something. nobody can tell you precisely when, but in any case "i made
a book" is precisely the same as "i made
a used condom"
a111: Logged on 2017-04-02 22:14 phf: i suspect saifedean is pitching various audiences to create
a buzz for his upcoming book, because the way he opened seemed like
a cold call. "normies" "bezzle this bezzle that" every phrase felt like it was lifted from
a "wake up sheeple" video with that matrix soundtrack
ben_vulpes: all you need for "wallet interoperability" is to make transaction scripts with OP_PUBKEY or OP_PUBKEYHASH followed by...
a pubkey, or the hash thereof.
danielpbarron: in tucker max's defense, his are the only books i have ever purchased in "e"lectronic form. and I did get
a kick out of them. But that was before I discovered trilema so who knows how they'd read to me if i tried again
phf: sitting down to "write the great american novel" as
a the pure case of that
mircea_popescu: "selling" 1k copies of
a book is
a)
a fine way to spend
a thousand hours of your time to earn about
a hundred dollars and b) sufficient of an achievement to make you
a "best selling author" and allow you to "lord it over" the utter fucktards populating that particular hobbist space.
mircea_popescu: phf evidently not. he wasted
a coupla years of his life, now in 2017 is in same position as he was in 2014. but it's ok, he's unwilling to review this, so he'll die as he lived.
mircea_popescu: it's
a joke, new york times best seller = not enough to pay for
a night in
a hotel.
mircea_popescu: anyway, the whole "i write books" aspirational occupation is
a macula of dumb just all of itself. i keep mentioning tucker max because he tried (and claimed to succeed) and utterly failed at the thing.
mircea_popescu: "i want
a guy who will love me for me" but in the male color scheme, as it were.
mircea_popescu: "you mean, with
a girl ?" "no, by myself. but it'll get all the girls interested! after all my used condom maker works!!11"
mircea_popescu: i very much doubt it. the time for unsolicited manuscripts was sometime in between the summer of 90something and the autumn of the same 90something. nobody can tell you precisely when, but in any case "i made
a book" is precisely the same as "i made
a used condom"
☟︎ phf: this is not the right audience for that sort of club footed approach, but i'm sure he'll get
a good response on bitcointalk or whatever
phf: i suspect saifedean is pitching various audiences to create
a buzz for his upcoming book, because the way he opened seemed like

☟︎ a111: Logged on 2017-04-02 07:26 diana_coman: lobbes, I'll gladly pay for the auction services in Eulora; Foxy's currently in
a days-long craft so will have to wait for that to finish first though
danielpbarron: might have been
a trilema article, i don't recall exactly
mircea_popescu had camwhoring on "list of things girl must do" extremely briefly. went right the fuck out, it's
a scandalous abuse of the human body to compare with, eg, the "sulphur mine children".
danielpbarron: plus all karaoke djs tend to be
a little weird in
a way particular to that profession; i don't care to become like that
mircea_popescu: it being fundamentally an azn thing, i expect it works just like star wars etc. can be pro, but it means
a certain thing.
danielpbarron: yes that too.
a few days ago someone was saying "oh you should be on america's got talent!" and i'm like "haha no way"
danielpbarron: you found
a good venue of the dj is willing to download songs on the spot. my favorite place is
a portugese bar where the guy will play from youtube if he doesn't have the song. that's the only way I can properly sing Lil Wayne -- find the instrumental version and read lyrics from my phone
danielpbarron: people tell me i should do it professionally, but to me it's just
a fun thing to do. i think it would not be fun if i tried to make money with it
mircea_popescu: anyway, my driver's crazy about karaoke. he admits he wanted to be
a singer!
danielpbarron: ooo you do karaoke!? i do that several times
a week
mircea_popescu: everyone was very... living up to the occasion of the sacred language blessing their venue. then i explained what the lyrics said, and i think they were
a little aghast
mircea_popescu: she did "don't take your guns to town", which was teh only english thing done, and apparently was
a challenge to download etc, but the dj was very proud to manage eventually.
mircea_popescu wonders if asciilifeform has 10,000,001 on
a hotkey, and if so, which it is
mircea_popescu: the only objection is that
a happy life is not actually impossible.
mircea_popescu: "first of all there appeared the idiots, then next transport landed some thieves. as all women were already ladies
a platoon of whores was parachuted from the sky. the danger being real the idiots spontaneously invented the first courthouse."
jurov: BingoBoingo: i have
a comment on qntra monthly report, it awaits moderation
mircea_popescu: i imagine 50% of rats exist so random wankers can watch the girl in 8a work as
a camho without having to pay for the "credits"
shinohai: Lulzy morning when some smacktard on twitter sends one of my girls
a .uue file. When that didn't work, sent files as
a .zip in email.
Framedragger: asciilifeform: ^ (but i don't have
a point to prove, just that i didn't see much to blame there, however i could just be my usual naive)
mircea_popescu: chronos, the god time, who devoured all his sons, was wounded by
a diamond sickle borne by his own creation. it happens.
mircea_popescu: sadly there isn't such
a thing as "brilliant trader" in nature anymore than there is "masked crime figther wearing
a cape".
mircea_popescu: well worship is
a complex topic. for one thing, why'd you worship anything that dun fuck you.
mircea_popescu: the problem is the rope frays at the other end : bama dillert's father, who plows, does not appear in any james hones novels ; bama dillert himself, who figures if
a man's gonna gamble anyway, might as well do it without plowing, does.
mircea_popescu: very similar reaction in
a certain sort of mousy librarian brain (like for eg the population of something awful) wrt yours truly.
mircea_popescu:
http://btcbase.org/log/2017-04-02#1635912 << i don't personally find taleb objectionable. this position my be significantly bolstered by my disinclination to actually read him. anyway -- i suspect it might be
a case of anaphylaxis. you can't stand specific antigens which he expresses mostly to protect himself from the idiot soup he bathes in, the twitter world etc.
☝︎ mircea_popescu: (in other words : males tend to put up all sorts of inept acts because, literally, manhood is
a practical impossibility.)
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform it's hard out there for
a pimp, yo, when he trynna make da mony fo da rent.
