bounce has much, much less trouble with people that do have some unixy background. such people don't end up lying through their teeth "nicing up" word documents all day.
mircea_popescu: bounce hm, it really shouldn't be that hard.
bounce: if there's any recruiter in the IT space doing better than that, I haven't seen'em.
mircea_popescu: if tomorrow it becomes fashionable for them to pretend like they're car salesmen, that won't be the #1 reason car salesmen suck
bounce: yes, well, not quite the same as being on the phone to some guy, getting fobbed off because you called them and they didn't call you. (literally, yes)
BingoBoingo: CheckDavid: Well sure. Doesn't mean they aren't delicious though. What better way to fight an endangered species than with cornbread stuffing and a pad of butter?
CheckDavid: Aren't rabbits a plague in Australia?
bounce: HR in general is fantastibad at handling candidates. recruiters amazingly aren't better, though it's what they do all day.
BingoBoingo: At some point their paper requires information that isn't readily googleavle
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo maybe i'm way off the mark here, but if you ran a university wouldn't you hire your own cocksucker as a librarian ?
mircea_popescu: this is why you don't get your certificate from the same party you get the goods.
punkman: because I didn't write the verifier script yet
nubbins`: because i don't have any tools with which to verify it
nubbins`: so it doesn't matter how many extra statements the other party created.
nubbins`: that's why we all keep our own files, and we don't use ;;gettrust or ;;ident, right?
nubbins`: okay. so why don't i just plug the text of my deed into brainwallet.org, and send the money there?
hanbot: oh you mean you don't want to actually do the work of verifying and would rather rely on the website's claim?
nubbins`: as it is right now, i register a deed, some bot sends a few satoshis to an address, and i just sort of hope that this isn't just a random tx
mircea_popescu: punkman tho says this doesn't work and molokodesk hasn't been back to clarify.
mircea_popescu: can't we worship mammaries instead ?
mircea_popescu: jurov: then next transaction won't require pin << lmao such security.
Dimsler: no you didn't, you went and agreed with it
jurov: then next transaction won't require pin
pete_dushenski: "If you can imagine it, you can create it with Headway Themes Framework (http://semperfiwebdesign.com/headway/) . The intuitive drag and drop visual editor makes it easy for a newbie or a hobbyist to custom build a great design but also doesn't get in the way of a more experienced designer or developer!"
jurov: !t m f.mpif
bounce: doesn't "datacoin" try and allow for arbitrary chain storage?
nubbins`: technically you don't eat beer
mircea_popescu: maybe the context ain't as virtuous as you think her.
nubbins`: i didn't even think anyone did. it's 2014
mircea_popescu: they can't learn. they gotta try again. until mashed into pulp, old fizz caking on their ragged tshirt, redditards gotta try their redditardation again.
Azelphur: indeed, that's one of the reasons I haven't done it yet
mircea_popescu: bounce:tablets aren't that mobile. but it certainly goes big on stupidity. it's trying to reinvent the web as some sort of "interactive broadcast", ie mainly one-way "interaction". the warm fuzzy feeling of teh intarwebz without them actually listening to you. not that you'd have anything to say, or that they'd listen in any case, but, you know. << EXACTLY fucking that omfg. exactly.
punkman: didn't take long, did it
cazalla: yeah, pagewash wasn't like that and refreshed quickly
Duffer1: i just couldn't get into it, the story was not bad, but the main actor i just couldn't relate or believe in

bounce: call it a kick in the teeth over and above requiring "browser features" that don't actually add anything to the content. dunno if that's "3.0" or "4.0" or whatever.
bounce: namecheap looks like bog standard tabletisation to me. that's not "2.0", where everything is ajaxified for no reason. this is that plus big large buttons for fat fingers and super-duper js-reinvented scrollage that may be nice for tablets but seriously doesn't for (non-fullscreen) browsers on the desktop
Duffer1: fringe wasn't bad either (fox no less)
Duffer1: oh i agree, but i don't trust fox to do it right or well
BingoBoingo: As far after two episodes the thing isn't non-sensical
Duffer1: well i'm worried they'll do that, and it will suck, if it's good i wouldn't mind so much :P
BingoBoingo remembers fuckers Spz. AMD APU's would be the mining be all and end all and they don't even register seriously for the weird alt hash functions
BingoBoingo: But I don't actively dislike the CPU/GPU combo
BingoBoingo: I actually don't actively dislike the E-350 in my X120e
asciilifeform: (no you can't buy it from intel)
asciilifeform: decimation: you don't get it. likely the folks who wrote the presentation, gave results of supposed tests, etc. never even saw the chip.
asciilifeform: phun phact. traditionally, the folks who write cpu manuals (how many people here have seen them alive? dead tree manuals) don't have access to original design specs. ☟︎
decimation: asciilifeform: surely you aren't suggesting that intel allowed some swarthy intern design their cisc instructions with some dumbass matlab script?
devthedev: I haven't spoken to him since last year
devthedev: I haven't spoken to him for about 2 weeks.
devthedev: I'm not sure what I'd do if someone followed me into the stall, probably wouldn't be too pretty though.
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform> and this is considerably cheaper than getting a hold of a climate-controlled space where lathe, mill, won't rust in winter. << Wait how much does a climate controlled storage locker cost on your left coast?
asciilifeform: and this is considerably cheaper than getting a hold of a climate-controlled space where lathe, mill, won't rust in winter.
asciilifeform doesn't know what the box for that looks like, but imagines slightly larger
devthedev: I don't have access to my OTC keys at the moment to auth.
asciilifeform: 'there wasn't ebola when bush was president, thanks obama'
mircea_popescu: devthedev didn't you work for something like that at some point ?
asciilifeform: if time for 'the holiday' - they don't need excuse.
BingoBoingo: devthedev: Well I haven't found library work so...Maybe I'll work X-mas at the mall and get back to you in January.
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: So... We're prolly all stuck now. Ebola diagnosed in the US. Outgoing border controls can't be far away.
cazalla: i can't think of any notable website starting with tr
BingoBoingo: cazalla: Doesn't really get simpler. And as you get ideas about the look, you build from it.
BingoBoingo: JuliaTourianski: That's why I don't do video
BingoBoingo: cazalla: Weren't there like 50 yesterday? Make an executive decision.
assbot: "Don't trust circle. Keep your own private keys" : Bitcoin
mircea_popescu can't be bothered to video. what's in pornhub link ?
hanbot: <mircea_popescu> hanbot: lol punkman. financial aid dorm, now with free cams. << shit, didn't i come up with that idea like 5 years ago ? << but you forgot to make intellectual property dorm :D (srsly tho, i'd forgotten meanwhile)
jurov: and won't try to jump off even after lid is taken away
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu> best scam ever would be for this priest in this small village to register births under arbitrary names << Isn't this why you commishun'd Deedsbot?
dignork: mircea_popescu: with group sex, let's say you had 4-way, so you get 5 signatures with at least 4 to redeem, but only one claims rape against another one - you don't have enough keys
mircea_popescu: nubbins` doesn't nubbins sound like he just got some.
mircea_popescu: dignork: doesn't scale to group sex though <<< course it does.
nubbins`: <+mircea_popescu> don't be the person that you came with! << !
mircea_popescu: hanbot: lol punkman. financial aid dorm, now with free cams. << shit, didn't i come up with that idea like 5 years ago ?
mircea_popescu: don't be the person that you came with!
nubbins`: you should see the rest of the pictures the guy took. not sure if drunk or couldn't find flash button
nubbins`: this is a trial run, wanted to make sure the guy didn't suck before i get him to post larger ones
BingoBoingo: %t
asciilifeform: fortunately, dying trying doesn't cost anything.
bounce: just dying isn't really allowed, no
hanbot: eh i guess they didn't (searching turns up some delightful headlines however, incl. "Rx Generic Viagra - The Parrot Liberation Front"). anyway, i suppose he's free to die trying.
asciilifeform: notice that 'wait to be lifted' isn't on the list. no one steals a cheetah except to place in another zoo.
mod6: %t
BingoBoingo: %t
hanbot: asciilifeform incidentally this has left me wondering what free time is worth if you don't perceive that you're free. if you can still do all you want to do, though, great!
xanthyos: haven't heard from stander since nitrogensports.eu opened and had a promised 5 btc freeroll on opening night, then was conveniently ddossed, and promises a 10 btc freeroll that has yet to be scheduled
danielpbarron: i don't think the price will go much lower than 380
hanbot: ah, so not an issue of "can't" then, but of not being worth it? well that's perfectly sound. most people i talk to about leaving the us are on the "can't" wagon.
asciilifeform: hanbot: it isn't really a 'profession structure' in my case. yes, for some people, 'i'm a lawyer and without that i'm nothing, where's my pistol' etc. these folks dropped like flies in '90s russia, say. but i'm more of - 'if i can move across the sea, but have to work as shoemaker in a cellar for 12h day, instead of 'turning the right screw' here in usa, why do i need to buy plane ticket? i can do the shoemaker th
bounce: the state doesn't seem quite dead yet. crumbling, grasping, but not quite dead yet.
asciilifeform: hanbot: i suspect that it isn't leaving with suitcase that bothers people, but for the most part a rational calculation of whether leaving would in fact give them increased freedom - or not - to do the kind of things they actually want to do.
hanbot: and it may not be the place per se, love for a certain avenue or whatnot, but fear of what's left when x certification or y language mastery doesn't matter so much anymore.
hanbot: eh, it's hard for people not to take it personally. i won't eat their sammiches, ergo i despise them!
asciilifeform: hanbot: with the exception of hereditary peasants, bound to the soil, etc - can't picture who is attached to the 'place' per se
hanbot: food and shelter are a lot easier to acquire when you let go of stuff you don't need. that latter part tends to be harder.
asciilifeform: punkman: i personally don't know anyone in love with the geography. but people do get attached to food, shelter.
hanbot: never been stuck in a gravity well, but i find escape from most anything hinges on ability to recognize and part with things that aren't needed. escape based on what one'd rather keep/is fond of mostly consists of waiting afaik.
asciilifeform: problem of escape is also usefully divisible into two distinct sub-problems - how to get out of X, and how to find Y such that you can eat there and avoid whatever it was that you weren't so fond of at X.
dignork: doesn't scale to group sex though
