_popescu> it's so weird that the "halting condition" of the "machine" so to speak is found, not in the data, not in the code, but in the... cell count. << Yeah. Only time I've encountered this in my limited forays outside english is in Mao's essays corraled under the Title "Guerilla Warfare"
BingoBoingo: <mircea
_popescu> BingoBoingo no strategist at the top. they got mostly marketing people these days. << Don't forget the Inertia people behind "Office"
BingoBoingo: <mircea
_popescu> but anyway, fwiw fbsd/obsd/nbsd seem to enjoy this 4:2:1 quadratic. << positions in the quadratic shift rather swiftly.
BingoBoingo: mircea
_popescu: It's something I've come to recently. Surprised it isn't the offical Social Justice OS. When I first played with Open Source at a summer job in 2004 I grew an immediate dislike because it didn't work as expected on maximally vanilla hardware at the summer job.
BingoBoingo: <funkenstein
_> hmm whats the proper way to register an address with assbot wot << Prolly whatever the latest incarnation of the Deedbot idea is.
BingoBoingo: cazalla> <mircea
_popescu> BingoBoingo in retrospect i suppose that's not so easily distinguished. it was just about at that time trhat i moved to amd <<< and so i ask that whatever problems there are with intel, why is AMD not affected? << My Beef was Intel imagineered this shit first
BingoBoingo: <mircea
_popescu> my boggle was related to the "you have done work, but we don't like your style of clothing, you're fired". << AH

_popescu> dude... this shit. i simply fail to comprehend how this works. << At the time there were two BSD source branches of note. Derp(free)BSD swiftly went off the rails. Herp(Net)BSD aknowledged the non-i386 world. Either way to even read the "Open" source you needed an in. Theo's WoT allowed him to read Herp.
BingoBoingo: <mircea
_popescu> "politics is a waste of time" is the sister idiocy to "i don't feel math is useful for real life". << Seriously, shares most of the same stakes as war, but minus bloodshed

_ kay, so : post a btc address, i'll send you a btc, buy logs at 333 per. should get you 300k or so. you can hold on to them for me.
mircea_popescu: funkenstein
_ so how do you feel about being my log broker ?
BingoBoingo: mircea
_popescu: Yes but it is nice to read the emails and have names Hero Adam Glass quit NetBSD because he couldn't take Theo being shitgnomed in the name of politeness. Chris G Demetriou was the avatar of politeness who contacted theo on the importance of avoiding STFU in the name of adoption
BingoBoingo: funkenstein
_: This was from back when Theo was a serf attached to a project some derps forked off of 4.4BSD lite, and the only alternative was the still less functional FreeBSD fork.

_ how much woodcoins does a btc buy me ? <-- a couple percent of them all
BingoBoingo: that you in no way annoy, ruffle, tweak, perturb, piss off, piss on, bugger, etc., any users, developers, or potential developers of NetBSD, unless they specifically ask you to. That's what got us to this point to begin with, really. Do you think you can manage
_that
_? I.e. are you willing to "just say no" to flaming people, however idiotic they may be?
BingoBoingo: For the record this is the meat of the last message on a mailing list to theo before other people started resigning around him with nowhere to go: What i am concerned about: (1) if you're going to be working on a large portion ofthe source tree, e.g. the sparc port or large amounts of code outside of it, you need to be in "reasonable touch" with us. Do you think that will be difficult for you or us to do? (2) I want to be

_popescu> sounds more like a gay spat than anything, two people who figured "they" were the embassy or something. << If this was their opening it wouldn't make the cut. But the part where it is closing isn't. Everything else is hedged appropriately.
