mircea_popescu: asciilifeform yes, and in that something it's justified.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform you don't know the result until AFTER. you gotta start building it BEFORE.
mircea_popescu: the difference between ligo and cern is that the later actually does something ; the former...
mircea_popescu: in this sense and very generally, large scale investigations of the nature of "let's see what happens to laser interference" are not substantially different from historical items such as foucault's pendulum, or the torgue balance of 1700
mircea_popescu: the fact is that the textbook is incomplete. fails to explain gravity credibly.
mircea_popescu: i always suspected the ligo nonsense was why alf had such a low opinion of eg cern cyclotron.
mircea_popescu: so obviously the trauma produced some reactions. but to outright ban photons is a little much.
mircea_popescu: i dunno if you recall, largest grant by nsf, caltech and mit (of course) spent a decade starting with post-collapse (sept 2001) trying to see how gravity influences laser beams through measuring interference. never saw anything.
mircea_popescu: i did not, because i did not like the reactive nature of it ^ above.
mircea_popescu: came up with a way to explain away laser interferometry not showing these "grav waves" by declaring photons kulaks / enemy of the solid state or such.
☟︎ mircea_popescu: "Gravitational coupling of the propagation four-vectors of matter wave functions is formulated in flat space-time."
mircea_popescu: i'm just trying to follow the conversation, clap along.
mircea_popescu: "The G4V transforms the standard DJ MIDI device into a dynamic and formidable software performance controller. Within its fully metal enclosure are 2 ..."
mircea_popescu rereads log, missed this line apparently because doing log checking in parallel with bothering ex romanian ex con ex prime minister.
mircea_popescu: anyway, the web / backend decoupling will hafta occur, it's too fragile as it is
mircea_popescu: well certainly phuctor hasn't been under massive ddos for months!
mircea_popescu: your observation suffers in all its articulations : you see seconds and imagine microseconds, you see a hundred and imagine 1001, you see regular, and reasonable referrer and imagine random, it's just not good!
mircea_popescu: there are also shitty mobile browser that "prefetch", but whatever.
mircea_popescu: and yes, i sometimes will click on a bunch of links. i imagine others too.
mircea_popescu: yes, loading the page. but maybe someone clicked the links, is the idea.
mircea_popescu: !~google "/gpgkey/7E840C2FC34B3F9B8B95E6D12E18267E717ACBE1494C34DFA9055710347573A7"
mircea_popescu: note that the items in your paste... are indexed as such.
mircea_popescu: or people read some article somewhere, tried to check out phuctor.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform i dunno that 100 lines in 5 minute can count as a dos
mircea_popescu: Framedragger something would have an ip. that which has the ip -- has the ip/
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform they seem repeated. possibly browsers retrying ?
mircea_popescu: which is why the no one in question finds itself stuck trying to MAGA.
mircea_popescu: the happenstance that the former are ~all economically useless, and the latter ~all economically useful AND collectively the whole gamut of economy interests no one
mircea_popescu: most of it, does not. like say bar of iron, or bushel of wheat.
mircea_popescu: some property comes with some y baked in, like apparently washington dc real estate
mircea_popescu: but anyway, a fine summary of modernity is "the time when middle class status went from owning $x in property to owning $x in property AND generating $y in income".
mircea_popescu: wtf is bitcoin income even FOR, one wonders. not like bitcoin inflates. if you accumulate you just increase your share in total wealth.
mircea_popescu: fine, but i find it rather lulzy that apparently i have to worry about "Bitcoin revenue", as if i can't trade fiatola for bitcoin like anyone else ; and that somehow i should be worried while sitting on technology the usg couldn't replicate in spite of trying for a coupla years.
mircea_popescu: how the fuck do the speculating somebodies pick their speculatin' substance ?
mircea_popescu: somehow "some are speculating" failed to speculate about how you know, nsa now sells pcb+ic assemblies.
mircea_popescu: by now it's ~bitbet sized, in terms of "bitcoin mp holds for other people".
mircea_popescu: i can't talk about being a pimp on the clear net ? holy shit i wrote the fucking textbook on it ?
mircea_popescu: trinque Sat Oct 7 06:37:43 CST 2084 << say, how do i get unixtime from deedbot time ?
mircea_popescu: i dunno, 've not been following, but anyway. i can't recall him doing something over the years.
mircea_popescu: and where the fuck were they with the "speculating" back when buffett had no option but to pretend like i dun exist.
mircea_popescu: dude look at that, some speculated ? who the fuck speculated, thestringpuller ?
