shinohai: Slow news day for J.P. Buttlix I guess
shinohai: This appears to be mostly "Social Media" I guess. I didn't know anyone actually used Google+
mircea_popescu: i guess so lol
shinohai: If I ever make a success in adult services and get listed on mpex, can I have S.EX as my symbol ?
mircea_popescu: i guess everything's worth trying once.
asciilifeform: i have nfi what'd be the point, even from 'psychiatric' pov, in the head on on the other end.
mircea_popescu: i mean, i was playing eulora all of yest etc.
mircea_popescu: point being, there's lag and then there's "lag" and i have nfi what sort of mactard / cloudhead / rubyonkubinetes "developer" one'd have to be to not know the difference.
asciilifeform: my sageprobe setup (amd g-series mobo, probe, cables, lcd, keyboardmouse) fits in briefcase. and with plenty of room to spare (for, e.g., battery if i ever put one)
asciilifeform: http://btcbase.org/log/2017-02-05#1611580 << i'd be mighty curious to see answer for this riddle ☝︎
a111: Logged on 2017-02-05 14:57 mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2017-02-05#1611468 << because task is secret because eyeballcorp revolutionizing involved, i generally assume.
phf: meanwhile, using my laptop is like playing battleship. where would the cursor jump&click next? i will have to make a trip to the city tomorrow
mircea_popescu: i have seen the set-up, it's basically a truck with generator mod for engine + spare generator in bed + satellite dish.
phf: right, i think i used to think that grownups had everything that they need to perform whatever function inside their briefcases
phf: http://btcbase.org/log/2017-02-05#1611523 << actually goes further back, to neuromancer and such. i always thought that proper equipment for a "cyberjockey" is a portable, self-contained "deck" ☝︎
ben_vulpes: i was working to minimize dns dependency there.
ben_vulpes: if i could back slowly away from the entire internet in horror i would
mircea_popescu: i mean that i noticed connection to cloudflare while loading your site
mircea_popescu: and in the latest news, i just discovered i can't fit even my pinky finger inside girl's nostril. WHY DO THEY MAKE THEM SO TINY!!11!!1
ben_vulpes: pete_dushenski: i have nfi what code you're working with, but all of those commands have an 'if fhelp' check that renders the help text instead of doing whatever the command asks for
pete_dushenski: budgeted. i'm in no rush. it's a satisfying and edifying exercise in its own right. c is new waters.
pete_dushenski: though i did have the pleasure of using vdiff for the first time. very neat tool, that. 10/10 would use again.
mircea_popescu: http://logs.bvulpes.com/chainstate?d=2017-2-4#449b44ba-038a-4615-aa58-408f46c356b3 << tbh i was waiting for the moment when the graph people are going to show up trying their craft at eulora, to meet a very http://trilema.com/2016/multivariate-calculus-for-experts/ fate.
a111: Logged on 2017-02-05 05:36 ben_vulpes: i am *still* working through it lol
mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2017-02-05#1611489 << dudes... i sorta half read the linked ocmment, didn't interest... ☝︎
a111: Logged on 2017-02-05 05:18 phf: i don't grok job offers that specify language, but not task. "my employer is looking for a couple of pistoleros"
mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2017-02-05#1611468 << because task is secret because eyeballcorp revolutionizing involved, i generally assume. ☝︎☟︎
mircea_popescu: i think by now the rootless youth (tm), well advanced post-irony as well as well disenfranchised by "putin's electoral college" don't necessarily mean anything in any particular direction.
shinohai: I'd certainly drink champagne out of them.
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: Thank you. I figured "our community" needed some venom. It's been a while.
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo i lolled at the "death cult", but i lolled more at the observation that the ~only article of interest to the "our community" anon commenter is... something about obscure shitcoins. that... that touches close to home.
a111: Logged on 2017-02-04 08:06 phf: so i was inspired by tmsr in 2014 to send out my gpg pubkey to a bunch of services that i use. most places simply ignored it, but today it paid off with the epic uptime machine. all i had to do was to point at an old email, pubkey in /root/ and send a signed request for a ssh pubkey replacement to recover a machine in barely amount of time it took to send three emails
mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2017-02-04#1611353 << sounds like this ip should be advertised, i wouldn't mind getting a box or two there. epic uptime + gpg awareness = win ☝︎
mircea_popescu: kinda a half-step against the idiocy of iron today, build remote services. of course this also has the drawback that it may encourage a very retarded view where every lord vies for pushing his own walled garden above the others, but i'm hoping thinking people can innoculate themselves against that idiocy for long enough
shinohai: I second that, when I finally get jurov's scheme to work on my client it may prove useful.
mircea_popescu: i would say things are progressing nicely.
shinohai: No big deal, I was just afraid I accidentally put in wrong addy.
phf: i think of him as one of the archbishops of scientism, enough legitimate research to lend credibility to things like https://arxiv.org/abs/1108.1791v3
asciilifeform: 'i like getting megabux to fantasize about quantum comp'
phf: "i like things they way they are"
ben_vulpes: i am *still* working through it lol ☟︎
ben_vulpes: i've never seen eg shop staff who were so narrow minded as some software folks.
ben_vulpes: hm, i suppose
asciilifeform: 'i'm a stoker'
asciilifeform: ben_vulpes: same thing as 100yrs ago, 'i'm a brake man'
ben_vulpes: i cannot fathom what is going on in the mind of somoene who is a <lang>"dev"
ben_vulpes: phf, asciilifeform: pretty standard recruiting tactic, appeal to identity. "i am a python/rails dev".
ben_vulpes: trinque: i don't think that anyone's using the sexp
asciilifeform: phf: i tried to get the d00d to cough up the truth re 'what task'
phf: i don't grok job offers that specify language, but not task. "my employer is looking for a couple of pistoleros" ☟︎
trinque: but yeah, I can see that being more useful
trinque: ben_vulpes: was somebody using the sexp? I can't remember now.
rg: I can leave tits and ass...
shinohai: See the log first, I left an offering earlier but jurov informed me it was unacceptable
rg: I see
rg: i want to ask mircea if he knows any skilled c++ coers that nened work
shinohai: These days I'm happy to look at any pic that doesn't have a goddamned snapchat filter on it.
jurov: i'd say too 'shopped
shinohai: I see what you did there.
trinque: lel! I have known this pain
Framedragger: bad news, i overestimated my grub skillz.
asciilifeform: http://btcbase.org/log/2017-02-04#1611355 << dun think i've ever ~used~ that trackpad, outside of crowded trains ☝︎
jurov: because i'm not doing small withdrawals directly from mpex?
shinohai: I'm in no particular rush, just wondering why he gave me that tx id
shinohai: (Because I always use new addy)
shinohai: nah the withdraw address. I had 14iD6wJY4DFaaDnEkcjd66JWe3dabU2Fv7
shinohai: I was trying to figure out which address I put in on coinbr. The tx id mircea_popescu gave me isn't an address I control
phf: fwiw, i also opted out of a travel gpg key, because i realized my infrastructure is not sufficiently developed to support that mode. i have a hopefully reasonable alternative that i'm relying on, but rather not explain till i come back
phf: in yet other tmsr vs rest of world. things that i built with the correct mindset work perfectly on a dodgy cell connection in the middle of nowhere. not so much VC produced monstrosities. so much for "bitcoin in africa"
phf: so i was inspired by tmsr in 2014 to send out my gpg pubkey to a bunch of services that i use. most places simply ignored it, but today it paid off with the epic uptime machine. all i had to do was to point at an old email, pubkey in /root/ and send a signed request for a ssh pubkey replacement to recover a machine in barely amount of time it took to send three emails ☟︎
mircea_popescu: i guess as per your "i can trivially pretend to have a 1TH man through employing 1k 1GH chickens" but still.
mircea_popescu: i have nfi why they're permitted to still exist.
a111: Logged on 2014-02-15 19:34 asciilifeform: i can make 1TH look like 1,000 1GH lamers. and so can you, and so can any spammer.
mircea_popescu: http://log.mkj.lt/trilema/20170203/#220 << pussy offering itself up for grabs, eh ? and then we're supposed to buy into this whole "i'm totally angry" narrative ? aww.
shinohai: Since I came to #trilema, I trust few people who can't speak more than one language.
mircea_popescu: is chinese better than romanian in terms of symbological ethnicality though ? I GUESS TIME WILL TELL!
mircea_popescu: it certainly follows that if my pet takes a liking to someone else i'll shoot it, wtf is it my pet for ? there's no pet divorce.
scriba: Logged on 2017-02-03: [19:20:50] <asciilifeform> http://btcbase.org/log/2017-02-03#1611054 << i'd be curious to read what a hypothetical 'nonparticipation' would look like -- carmack no-shows, judge awards default? carmack burns own factory, a la 1918 ? or which.
mircea_popescu: i imagine they have a dentist specializing in bucktooth palleatives with a fabulous practice
mircea_popescu: i do not use this box for any other prupose.
ben_vulpes: i don't really want to know any more about the irc protocol than i already do
mircea_popescu: i dunno, i guess i should be impressed or something ? in any case i aren't ; grow a pair, come be slaughtered like pigs already wtf.
asciilifeform: While Krypton-Dev and I disagree on fundamental ideologies (Me: “America First”, He: “I trust China more than the US.”) I understand that they are paying him well and I wish him the best of luck.' << lel!

shinohai: http://btcbase.org/log/2017-02-03#1611199 <<< tis mine mod6, but that's a good idea. I haven't changed much of the historical gribble functionalities. ☝︎
ben_vulpes: huh turns out the individuals are on the hook for damages, i missed that on the first pass.
ben_vulpes: or did i miss out on yc making bank from all of the devs the rights to whose work they now own a fractional slice of
asciilifeform: i've nfi. but would be surprised if he is not 'made example' of, to remind other carmacks that anal virginity can be sold ~once~
ben_vulpes: i'm not the kind of guy who "just wants to keep making video games", so i'd never have stuck around in the first place.
asciilifeform: ( and since mircea_popescu is asleep, i will quote my robopopescu, 'carmack should not have been in this position to begin with, should have been making rockets for hezbolla, instead of 3d goggles' )
asciilifeform: (or, in some cases, a pig -- raised for the table to begin with. i do not know enough re carmack to say which type of farm animal he was groomed as)

asciilifeform: 'I love how when you scrape away the “reality-based community” and “I fucking love science,” all you’re left with is “the Republic has no need of savants,” or possibly “please continue talking after I shove you in this locker.”'
mircea_popescu: i guess we know who the faggots are then huh.
asciilifeform: the one 'quantum comp' that is a reasonable possibility is the perpetuum mobile sort. where, e.g., a class of weak (i.e. cheaply breakable from birth, or from a few published signatures) rsa keys is discovered in the dungeons, and dressed up into a 'we haz magical rsa breaker box, go switch to $shitcrypto' ☟︎
mircea_popescu: i dunno ; the "two weeks to take mosul" worked even better than that.
asciilifeform: every other week, a crackpot, 'i broke!'
asciilifeform: 'i haz rsa breaker' 'so here's this key, go break?'
mircea_popescu: i am unsure about that part ; left to their own devices female gender expression is what you see in 1970s pornos.
