mircea_popescu: for
the ovule
to manage
to come out it needs
to pass a bunch of checks.
mircea_popescu: so you'll still be ovulating, esp as a young woman, no matter
the dose.
mircea_popescu: <asciilifeform> once you see
the flash, gonads are well-done <<
this is quite not
true, actually.
mircea_popescu: i guess
the ideal underdesk packing would be butt, head,
then
torso atop and limbs atop
that
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform seems
that way
to me. you'd want your butt over your head, not your head over your butt
chetty: what, no more hide from
the nukes under your desk???
mircea_popescu: "At
that point I
took all
the phones away and we had a little reminder chat about when it was appropriate
to use your phone and when it was not. Also
that it was rarely appropriate
to hide under
the
table." chetty check
this out : no longer appropriate
to hide under desk in
the us school system.
mircea_popescu: anyway, stupid for spaceball
to not market itself as "magic wand"
mircea_popescu: i imagined surely
they must have smartphone accelerometer as an interface
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo iirc he said something or
the other about some stadium accident. beautyon has
the story.
mircea_popescu: but
teh beating of single digit aged ppls is dysfunctional.
mircea_popescu: i mean, i
think we know i'm no priss, and so im not speaking from some locus of nonsensical ideology.
mike_c: +1 i can stop my son in his
tracks with my warface.
mircea_popescu: children are born cowardly, if your preschooler can't be controlled by scowling you need
to work on your warface.
mircea_popescu: but a garbageman does something useful. a kindergarten
teacher perhaps, some places. NOT in ussr, and not in ussa
tho. most emphatically not.
mircea_popescu: "Today was
the first day in a long
time I actually
took phones away. I have no idea what all was included in
the update, but you would have
thought it was crack.
They seriously could not keep away from it. I even had one girl crawl under
the
table with her phone."
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: I didn't hear anything like
that. Could also be dumb UK stuff?
thestringpuller: For quite awhile now, kids have had a real anxiety about being separated from
their phone, but
today it was near panic. I am hoping by
tomorrow some of
the novelty will have worn off and we can get back
to business.
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: I don't
think
twitter really bans.
mircea_popescu: twitter : "25 hedge fund managers earned more
than double every kindergarten
teacher combined. But who created more value?" mp : "Definitely no kindergarten "teacher" ever created any value. Just
trying
to claim
the workings of nature for
themselves."
mircea_popescu: MP :
The point of womanhood is for
the woman
to start a new life, as a new person, once she sexually matures.
mircea_popescu: it'd seem
to me
the principal utility of ripple
these days is so
that banking idiots who wish
to spend longer with
their head in
the sand can pretend like
they're not.
mircea_popescu: "Join me & meet
the old & new in payments (@AmericanExpress, @Visa, & @RippleLabs)"
mircea_popescu: Members Online Now : Atruk, hyperiond, bitkill, jurov, coinminer69er, bertani
Total: 68 (members: 6, guests: 57, robots: 5)
mircea_popescu: i'd have
to spend weeks with recordings of ethnology and folklore
to listen for
the double n construct
tho, and i obviously have not
the
time for it.
mircea_popescu: and moreover, why
the d is rendered as n in a double n, wtf,
this isn't even a documented consonant migration afaik
mircea_popescu: if it's indeed arrendar, one's
to explain how
the hell vulgar latin yielded
the same
thing in south italy and in south spain
mircea_popescu: but look at
the beauty of what is (could be) in a word :
fluffypony: mircea_popescu: unfortunately
the grandparents I have
that are still alive are very peasant, so I'm not going
to get much more out of
them
mircea_popescu: fluffypony im kinda after
the root of
that arrenne magical word. i'm pretty sure it's neither
to forget nor
to be.
mircea_popescu: "oh
this opressive government and
the fucking courts which we can say we live in a
tyrannical
tyranny!11"
mircea_popescu: *suit gets rejected for lack of venue, failure
to state a claim, failure
to file and failure
to fail*
mircea_popescu: "so i contributed some equity" "to whom ?" "to someone" "so what do you want ?" "a share of
the profit" "of whom ?!" "of someone"
mircea_popescu: holy shit.
the ipo of an anon entity ? logic just got knotted into a pretzel and ate itself.
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo: I imagine we'll fill
the wiki with important points over
time << as stan'd say, i can also see another scenario, where
the wiki is still where it's now, a decade later.
BingoBoingo: It's why Hearn gets suspected of disinfo and
this guy is suspected of lazy and ignorant
mircea_popescu: the best error, like
the best entropy, is
the result of a different approach
than culture.
mircea_popescu: see, specialisation refines and improves
the quality of one's corectness.
mircea_popescu: no psyop in
the world can compile disinfo of
the level ignorance & stupidity can.
mircea_popescu: at which point you're suddenly afraid
to let
them use metal objects on your soft bit.
mircea_popescu: it's as if you were a woman, and visited gynecologists monthly, until one day when you discovered
they decided football was part of gynecology, and
then kept running into one another on
the field like drunk sperms.
mircea_popescu: and
the way he goers about it makes one fucking petrified of
these folks' general competence and ability as displayed at
the daily business of
their chosen field.
JorgePasada: :-)
Too meta for
today, I'm in getting shit done mode before
this Amsterdam
trip.
mircea_popescu puts on his metaphysician hat. JorgePasada nothing
that necessarily is could be scary, necessarily
JorgePasada: mircea_popescu:
The scary part is when
they fit data
to
their ideas/ideals instead of
the other way around
mircea_popescu: but in
the 80s i recall it being somewhat of a big deal
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform yes, i was
thinking, o look what cryptologia publishes now.
mircea_popescu: he has an entire list of derp
there. "On Subversive Miner Strategies and Block Withholding Attack in Bitcoin Digital Currency"
JorgePasada: mircea_popescu: Is
that
the Intellectual consistency
through ignorance approach?
ozbot: Nicolas
T. COURTOIS' research in cryptography
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform some random dood aspiring
to academia, i had his page somewhere.
mircea_popescu: JorgePasada well you know, if one can't reach eventual intellectual consistency
through logical means,
the only method available is not asking questions.
mircea_popescu: bitcoinpete: eventually, i see fewer people walking into bitcoin (and assets) like
they own
the place << kinda what i'm
trying
to get with
the
trouting various clueless
twits a la courtois. "it ain't yo momma's btc, yo! show some respek!"
