punkman: mircea_popescu: stevia extract is pretty sweet

jurov: mircea_popescu: one can get used to it

davout: mircea_popescu: yup http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coca-Cola_Life

Adlai: mircea_popescu: there's some truth to it (pretty awesome owning both sides of the lake!) but it seems like an overly narrow version of "it's just tribal hysteresia that hasn't yet settled"

nubbins`: mircea_popescu imagine hey?

BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: Still vegetables, but... Not as many.

BingoBoingo: <mircea_popescu> and so california is running out of water because while population doubled, water works have not been allowed to go forward ; and the us is ethically collapsing because hey... no useful violence to be had << Also the part where the largest agricultural use of water in California is... Alfalfa... for export to China as livestock fodder...

asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: the rnavier thing - fella went into the scorpion pit, for no apparent reason, got stung a bit. big whoop.

assbot: Logged on 27-04-2015 09:28:24; mircea_popescu: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=27-04-2015#1112293 << on one end. on the other end, it has the advantage that it can allow *everyone* to pretend like they're part of the conversation. here people know nobody is listening to them, because they have no voice. on facebook/reddit/etc, every idiot can pretend that he's being heard because he can read himself and so why not.

nubbins`: mircea_popescu do you find that argentinians mallet the fuck out of steaks?

davout: mircea_popescu: doesn't really work for some reason, also the SVG tags are embedded directly in the HTML, makes it impossible to open in new tab for example

davout: mike_c: could you make it possibru to zoom on the wot graphs?

asciilifeform: mircea_popescu finds it harder and harder to care about whatever the derps outside do. << this is the very definition of atomic dirigible.

asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: incidentally, why i suggested 'sommelier' as term for the hypothetical: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=26-03-2014#582380 ☝︎

nubbins`: mircea_popescu being a sommelier is pretty boring.

asciilifeform: ben_vulpes summarized it, http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=27-04-2015#1112386 ☝︎

williamdunne: mircea_popescu: I don't think they are actively trying to compensate, just a side effect

williamdunne: mircea_popescu: Well thats hard to summarize with a formulae as its relative. Normally I would favour the person who was most productive prior to said violence

asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: the data center thing would be ideal, i agree, if anyone actually ran amd-only data centers

williamdunne: mircea_popescu: Ah okay, right. That make more sense

asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: i would have approached from different angle, and suggested that sommelier must have actual understanding of how the damn thing works. as well as a certain amount of reverse-engineering capability.

jurov: mircea_popescu: you ever asked multiple automechanics which car is the most reliable?

williamdunne: mircea_popescu: But I don't see how that makes it just

williamdunne: mircea_popescu: So if I were to beat you, it would be just for violence's sake?

asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: very much through experience. but i do not know if anyone actually has this kind of experience.

williamdunne: mircea_popescu: So the violence was just? Sorry I'm struggling to follow.

assbot: Logged on 27-04-2015 10:29:33; mircea_popescu: because nobody knows about computer parts quite like the people doing procurement for a datacenter. so if you run your own metal and sublet to people, you're in the best position to learn these exactly.

williamdunne: mircea_popescu: I think its fair to say holocaust is bad

williamdunne: mircea_popescu: Most, although I guess thats overly democratic

assbot: Logged on 27-04-2015 09:22:40; mircea_popescu: well, they did invent them alright. they just made the mistake to make them women.

BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: It is amazing how much more productive the conversation gets when discussing logistics of dating sites instead of derping over bans

asciilifeform: <ben_vulpes> ... like that cemetary caretaker, eh? << if you know what his weapon of choice was, share - it would add some spiffy detail to the legend

asciilifeform: <mircea_popescu> usg.nsa loves "virtualization", but it's by no means the only way to skin that cube << the only reason why they so easily sell this flavour of snake oil is that virtualizator gets you 'cpu cycles by the pound' and buckets of little arm boxes - don't (why not? because we never actually invented parallel processing or, especially, process migration. apparently. at least, unix world did not.)

asciilifeform: <mircea_popescu> other than that, aglass of water is a computational machine << in the same sense as a fart, or even two electrons whizzing by in vacuum, are a computing machine. us earthlings are interested, for this reason, in -programmable- computators.

jurov: perhaps the word mircea_popescu wants is "cybernetics" in its original meaning but it kinda went the way of vitalism

assbot: Logged on 26-04-2015 03:50:42; asciilifeform: <mircea_popescu> that may be. i'm just pointing out that biology offers a very significant challenge to theoretical cs. << i must confess, that i am at a loss as to which aspects of meat we should like to replicate in machines: intransigence? toe fungus? pneumonia? schizophrenia?
