ben_vulpes: link, mircea_popescu ?
BingoBoingo: <pete_dushenski> ;;later tell cazalla "sum" of money, not "some" in your last article. << fixed

mircea_popescu: ben_vulpes from ritholz site : "Please use the comments to demonstrate your own ignorance, unfamiliarity with empirical data and lack of respect for scientific knowledge. Be sure to create straw men and argue against things I have neither said nor implied. If you could repeat previously discredited memes or steer the conversation into irrelevant, off topic discussions, it would be appreciated. Lastly, kindly forgo all
trinque: ben_vulpes: heh that one had me roaring
pete_dushenski: ben_vulpes: lols
asciilifeform: <mircea_popescu> spend more than it costs to run an african/southeast asian village... << it is not clear to me that this is so. they aren't being given actual solid money, note. they are given bezzlars, most of which come back to the loop immediately
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: as for the 2nd, the idiot flailing re: 'cyber attack'
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: what's noteworthy... << the sheer lameness of the dissertation titles
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: we might have a case of the proverbial 'randomly wired neural network, close your eyes and the room is dark' on our hands. these N were not crapped our by dice, but are permuted versions of properly-generated N. and could have interesting mathematical properties
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: also looks like you did the 'magic' and non-magic keys together
mircea_popescu: pete_dushenski myeah.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: afaik the distribution of factors in random large N is an open problem
asciilifeform: ;;later tell mircea_popescu in other news, http://nosuchlabs.com/gpgkey/7382BEE1309329B35A14D11394BC4068C4491033B855ED56B7CBE15AE0EB9A2A and http://nosuchlabs.com/gpgkey/709FF94FF727A8490E99459EEC2989C1EB80FE9A03DF0F1DA6911EB4D5497907

thestringpuller: mircea_popescu: Geldreich was a kind of GPU savant/whisperer iirc. And an advocate of Unix/Linux gaming.
mircea_popescu: pete_dushenski :p
pete_dushenski: mircea_popescu: a novel !
pete_dushenski: Pierre_Rochard: ha, classic show and classic scene !
Pierre_Rochard: ;;later tell pete_dushenski clarifying that I am indeed not GBANGA! ( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rREGbLdOzfg ) and that I would’ve thought a greyhound bus would be a great way to launder money, but events proved otherwise
wyrdmantis: mircea_popescu i know him, never met IRL, debated with him about blocksize change :)

asciilifeform: ben_vulpes was at some point surprised ?!
asciilifeform: ben_vulpes: can only be (easily) measured indirectly

assbot: Logged on 27-01-2015 05:02:36; mircea_popescu: "The system not only pays poor people, it employs lots and lots of almost poor people. I'm not saying this is a good thing, or a desirable thing, I am simply stating a fact. Some of these are direct government jobs (e.g. staff down at the SSI office) and some are pretend private sector jobs. If you're a psychiatrist at an inner city clinic, you may think you're an independent contractor, but you're r
asciilifeform: because, as described very clearly by tlp (that piece cached on mircea_popescu's www) - they either carry out work directly for usg organs (official or otherwise, e.g., microshit) or perform services for the former
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: the one thing they know how to do is arson
assbot: Logged on 05-06-2015 03:23:52; asciilifeform: pete_dushenski: pre-nups, as a general rule, don't work in usa
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: printing press scam is directly analogous to carnot engine. it is the closest shave one can give the sheep without skinning them
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: sure!
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: to grasp this, it is necessary to look through the porthole glass on the atomic dirigible, down to the planet below - where most folks are so thoroughly wedded to their meal ticket that they do not really perceive themselves as having a choice of what sort of system to be part of, aside from the abstract choice of eating one's pistol
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: you're there because you were born and raised there and door is welded shut ?
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: they would have, if they could be sure of 'blink back' when 'blinking eyelashes' up the chain of command
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: half a mil in usd is not 'i-can-give-it-to-isis-money'
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: the quantities are not co-measurable
asciilifeform: pete_dushenski: there is a long list of idiocies not yet surfaced. for instance, a usg stooge will eventually propose 'wallets' keyed to passport chips or the like
decimation: mircea_popescu: those agents investigating dpr apparently 'switched sides'
pete_dushenski: mircea_popescu: upon reflection, alternative is either a) have one person do everything, or b) 'multisig'
assbot: Logged on 05-06-2015 03:05:28; pete_dushenski: so one person does funds, one person does other things ? you might excuse me for being suddenly reminded of magicaltux's recent 'decentralise the exchanges' essay
decimation: mircea_popescu: I don't get your point re: <--->
asciilifeform: pete_dushenski: again, they 'work' like patents 'work'
asciilifeform: pete_dushenski: pre-nups, as a general rule, don't work in usa ☟︎
williamdunne: pete_dushenski: heavily implied ;)
asciilifeform: pete_dushenski: who the hell cares what a transparent shill does
williamdunne: pete_dushenski: THE COP WAS JUSTIFIED, DO YOU WANT THE TERRORISTS TO WIN
williamdunne: pete_dushenski: Indeed. Outside of fiat which is impossible to keep sole control of, I am responsible for funds. If something were to go wrong it would be my head on the pike.
williamdunne: pete_dushenski: Not yet convinced, while he is responsible I do think there must have been a malicious third party involved which I suspect to be the USG
assbot: Logged on 02-06-2015 17:22:10; mircea_popescu: magicaltux, and you're comment as ot whether "he's to blame entirely"
decimation: pete_dushenski: heh
assbot: Logged on 05-06-2015 02:03:53; *: mircea_popescu is confused by this contradiction

BingoBoingo: pete_dushenski: Not a useful one, and it would be poor form to expose it if it was.
BingoBoingo: pete_dushenski: Not channer as in this chan, channer by the classical definition: an imageboard enthusiast
pete_dushenski: i had thought it might've been Pierre_Rochard at first, but after today, i gotta rule him out.
decimation: pete_dushenski: your jaron lanier post was amusing
decimation: mircea_popescu: that patagonia is overvalued?
mircea_popescu: on the same great expression trend, http://36.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_mcaqbjOfzi1qkcds1o1_1280.jpg

BingoBoingo: <mircea_popescu> oh help me rwanda. some shithead is willing to pay 90% of his networth to some fucktard whose feelings got hurt ? << He left office to lobby his networth expanded fast then.
decimation: mircea_popescu: read the indictment
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: I've read it and 3 others, some of which bring up what the publication contained. Basically boils down to "OMG When CSF dries up it goes the same place every other fluid does!!! OMG this connection works both ways!!!" The only thing newis is they managed to image this system, because soft tissue imagine is hard
decimation: http://www.eurekalert.org/pub_releases/2015-06/uovh-mlf052915.php < apparently it has only just been discovered that the lymph system is connected directly to the brain
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: if running tests, consider the igprof patch
mod6: so [A_tx]<-[B_tx] are both sent
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: this is a statistical certainty
mod6: ben_vulpes: should read up on this too ^^
mod6: <+asciilifeform> mircea_popescu: and must nitpick, but it isn't the current therealbitcoin yet. not until patches are ratified. << we'll get there. I'd like to have a discussion at some point about the possible negitive effects of at least the TX Orphanage Amputation patch.
asciilifeform: http://thebitcoin.foundation/test/perf/v0_5_3_1-RELEASE-Plus-OrphanageThermonuke-And-TXOrphanageAmputation/20150604/Memory.png << reasonably flat. but the 'whole machine' stats thing is a terrible kludge imho
mod6: yeah, previous test with only OrphanageThermonuke did have at least one spot where a "major pagefault" was detected: http://thebitcoin.foundation/test/perf/v0_5_3_1-RELEASE-Plus-OrphanageThermonuke/20150512/Page_Faults.png
asciilifeform shudders that this set of graph axes exists: http://thebitcoin.foundation/test/perf/v0_5_3_1-RELEASE-Plus-OrphanageThermonuke-And-TXOrphanageAmputation/20150604/Page_Faults.png
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: and must nitpick, but it isn't the current therealbitcoin yet. not until patches are ratified.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: ^ better how?
assbot: Logged on 05-06-2015 00:11:22; mircea_popescu: impressive dude. i think the current foundation bitcoin is actually better than mine o.O
mircea_popescu: http://thebitcoin.foundation/test/perf/v0_5_3_1-RELEASE-Plus-OrphanageThermonuke-And-TXOrphanageAmputation/20150604/Process_Switches.png esp that coupled with the 0 faults omg.

BingoBoingo: !up ascii_field
thestringpuller: ascii_field: maybe it's a well kept secret. asciilifeform master artist, with some pseudonym none of us know.
thestringpuller: ascii_field: wait you're a professional artist?
trinque: ascii_field: yeah ask me how my wifi behaved
thestringpuller: mircea_popescu: the starbucks hipster is usually the unemployable art school student. the employable ones don't complain about tools since they just fill out PO's until they find one they like.
trinque: ascii_field: wasted way too much time getting a gentoo tuned on a mac
mircea_popescu: in other news, http://41.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_mdrr7acbEl1ruwje9o1_1280.jpg
ascii_field: just ask ben_vulpes
ascii_field: mircea_popescu: the closest approximation to a usable laptop is (or was) sold by apple
thestringpuller: mircea_popescu: that's because logical competency and art don't go together. better trying to mix oil and water.
ascii_field: mircea_popescu: it has 'guile' baked in, yes
trinque: mircea_popescu: may have been the first time I encountered a lispy thing in the wild
ascii_field: mircea_popescu: essentially the results of random integer n
