mircea_popescu: i don't mean, it exists a little. i mean it exists like sevastopol.
mircea_popescu: well here's the beauty of it : this item does exist in russian, according to romanians.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform do you know of any russian item more or less like здреанца ?
mircea_popescu: aand in other wtf, i just ran into an unexpected wall.
mircea_popescu: of course now i can't find the whole classification. do you recall where it sez there's two types, the type that prices her cunt to work and the type that prices it to not work ?
mircea_popescu: trinque young Martial walks into the office of the Odessan Poet Combine, explains to the man at the desk behind the typerwiter that he wants to be a poet. "are you sad, young man ?" "no." "then what do you want ?!"
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform incidentally that line sounds SO very odessan.
mircea_popescu: not to mention, a minor bureaucrat with maxed out credit cards
mircea_popescu: aaaand caesar was weeping at his grave for being too old to matter.
mircea_popescu: and gengis was what, getting lipstick rainbows on his tiny dick from austrian "students" ?
mircea_popescu: this is your error here : when you say "they still have years of catching up to do" you imagine a theoretical construct that has no bearing to reality. just because you're far away doesn't mean you're far ahead. as it happens, you aren't, western women will survive much better than western men.
mircea_popescu: look here : in physics (which is a practical matter), you can have such a thing as a set with a measure and yet thereby not obtain an ordering. in mathematics, your ring (set + idempotent/unit items) also thereby has an ordering.
mircea_popescu: if your definition includes an or it is not a definition.
mircea_popescu: women are better equipped than you are to adapt in this sense. plus it self-lubricates.
mircea_popescu: taught the masses their chief marketable skill of today -- the copy/paste.
mircea_popescu: not specifically. that was mostly a 90s item, resulting from the uneven development of broadband and the uneasy interaction between society and internet.
mircea_popescu: (ie yes, the boneheaded fucktard is also incapable of learning from her own experience, but whatever, it's what the us politruk class is all about)
mircea_popescu: the time when people with better access to superior technologies ruined her inept shit precedes this event.
mircea_popescu: that was the whole thing. that's all she had to communicate, when all is said and done.
mircea_popescu: andreicon yet consider : when the pantsuited hilarity was aiming to somehow establish herself as actually real and existent as opposed to merely imaginary fiction (in the face of trump's onslaught) her argument was ... "i was in the situation room!!!". she was saying, basically, that while she formally appears a redditard like any other, let them not forget that nevertheless she has... priviledged access to... special technol
mircea_popescu: trinque back then the gray was soot. it's apparently antiseptic and anti-stenkik.
mircea_popescu: just as the black worker on the plantation thought he is a slave because god made him stupid ; just so the redditard of today thinks he has easy equal access to everything.
mircea_popescu: andreicon the illusion of "~easy~ access to ~same~ technology" is universally and i find without exception the macula of the modern slave.
mircea_popescu: diana_coman amusingly enough, i recall a few... dozen moments of this "advent of technology" spring. like you know, Коммунизм = советская власть + электрификация всей страны.
mircea_popescu: i guess there's a lot of new things in the world for you huh :)
mircea_popescu: anyway, why do you think you've got something to train others ?
mircea_popescu: you're allowed to to whatever the hell you please, at least for now.
mircea_popescu: phf for my curiosity, don't you find it to work better when the girl's looking for them ?
mircea_popescu: that's the problem with me, i'm seldom actually doing what i'm say i'm doing.
mircea_popescu: if you need engine people get 'em, don't redesign around 'em.
mircea_popescu: phf i dunno what you've been doing with your life to this point, but let me point out to you in no certain terms that adjusting what you do by what's available is the child's lot.
mircea_popescu: of course for maximal artsy i'd make your gliders asymmetrical. give it some nutty spin.
mircea_popescu: would be one hell of an art item, steampunk or no steampunk
mircea_popescu: but that said, a large baloon with a string of gliders underneath that detach bottom first like some sort of strange technofruit losing its seeds like some sort of anemochorious epiphyte.
mircea_popescu: glider bs is ww2 reich wunderwaffen (and i hope you read german for they did explore this to death)
mircea_popescu: if you are destroying the targets the solution is rocket engine, which by now are cheap and easy to make. if you are merely diddling the target the solution is flying lawnmower. (although if you only want to do it monentarily, such as picture taking as opposed to eg van ecking the solution really is satellite).
mircea_popescu: fwiw balloon-glider is a solution to this problem in the sense straight razor and barber's bowl is a solution to flebotomy. it does work, as it did long ago, but it does also kinda ignore the more recent past.
mircea_popescu: for instance : if i were solving this for military purposes i would have the machine list all targets it can visit such that it can still reach one landing spot, and then choose one to visit RANDOMLY. this offers some very strong guarantees : a) each machine will touch one target ; b) the algo can be recursed at ANY point (such as power failure) ; c) if you make a fleet of them you get coverage at no communication expense.
mircea_popescu: phf but necessarily you won't have a closed form solution to an ill defined class of a known hard problem.
mircea_popescu: "and thus they bid farewell to carnal dishes and solid meats, and highly spiced ragouts to live for fortry days on ill-dresses fishes, because they add no sauces to their stews."
mircea_popescu: you probably also forgot shitwater existed. easy to forget if you're not served it every day.
mircea_popescu: would have been great if we had a service that had already been open, tested and could be advertised ; but it'll be useful even to have it new, not like the dorks have much memory or mental consideration space anyway.
mircea_popescu: finally, after mature consideration, china. and my money's not on the anglotards.
mircea_popescu: so - germany, first. then japan. upon jealous consideration of japan, russia. these tried to actually band together and strangle anglotardism once and for all. they fucked it up, like the idiots they are.
mircea_popescu: well yes, that's exactly what we're discussing, ru went 1910-1940 about same way china went 1975-2005.
mircea_popescu: the simple country boy is loyal, the problem is the town boy is nutty.
mircea_popescu: and then the japanese copied it. to also great success. which is why both japan and russia allied with germany.
