mircea_popescu: in fairness,
that's more in
the vein of "well... i got
this here chunk, but hard
to
tell what it actually is, bring me a selection of hammers
to hit it with see if it sings."
a111: Logged on 2018-07-24 15:09 mircea_popescu: i might get
this inept slut a blog
though... what'd pizarro
think about giving my stupid whores slots on
the mp-wp megaserver ?
mircea_popescu: but yes, if you've got a competent spy you're not going
to make her a competent kbd monkey -- for approximately
the same reason people don't usually eat
their children. acceptable substitutes for flesh can usually be found.
☟︎ mircea_popescu: i expect it was more along
the lines of "you manage yours, i'll manage mine,
tyvm."
mircea_popescu: "use
the log" doesn't just mean, read here. use it, as
the
tool it is, in
the sense of permit referentiality.
mircea_popescu: that's
the overawing important point --
the reason we are so damned good
today has a lot
to do with what lispers call repl and biologists call genetics. if you can get a recurring loop going you'll probably win.
mod6: I appreciate
the advise here.
The management end here has
to get better.
mod6: *nod*.
The file I've got in front of me is a good start
to such a reoccring information passing. It's genereated dozens of questions from me; once I have
them answered, I'll send it around.
This will also help BB get up
to speed on what is what early.
mircea_popescu: also has
the advantage
that it puts
the patters right under your eyes, so
to speak. you get organisational audit for free with it.
mircea_popescu: possibly have a file with all
the stuff you want
to send people (because
this process of --
think of it -- do something about it! has a lot of merit
to it). but if you just >> alf.txt and
then once a day or once a week or w/e >> gpg -aer alf and >> p.bvulpes.com
then you get it all.
mod6: Which, conflicts with
the notes. And
to your point, mircea_popescu, we need
to get better at comms & note sharing.
mod6: yeah, forgive me. i'm just getting up
to speed on all of
the particularities of what is going on here. I only ask ben
to confirm because alf said earlier
that it expired at
the end of
the month.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform i saw
two
the past hour and i recall at leasta coupla yest which is why i said.
mircea_popescu: "one single interrupt is worth 15 minutes of labour" or how did
that
tale go.
mircea_popescu: you know, far be it from me
to hassle you folk about your fine organisation ; but it occurs
to me, on
the butress of experience,
that you're running a very wasteful process in
that every.single.god.damned.thing produces an interrupt.
there should be some queues and some batching, you can't ping someone every.single.time.anything.occurs. yes ?
mod6: <+asciilifeform>
ty BingoBoingo . mod6 plox
to confirm exact
time. << according
to
the notes about
the accounts
that I received last night from ben_vulpes, his rockchip is rented
through August 19th.
mircea_popescu: if i
take
http://trilema.com/2018/it-came-out/ cutie for a sea
trip and it has
the misfortune of coming
to life 500 miles out, it'll still fly over
the ocean looking. and so must you, because until you're dead you don't know you're dying.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform
the nigerians were looking for a stupid.
there's a fundamental difference between self-limiting and self-expanding
things ; and i propose
the nigerians aren't a relevant model at all.
mircea_popescu: less
than 1% of 1% of
the material of interest
to
the ox is of interest
to pieris rapae ; but
the field provides for all.
mircea_popescu: as
the cattle goes browsing on
the pasture, so does
the white butterfly go looking for cabages.
mircea_popescu: but whether you can or you can't, you don'tr know until you
try.
mircea_popescu: if i can select one usable nude floorwasher in 250k imperial "accounts",
then probably so could you* (*conceivably, you don't want nude floorwashers, but ~necessarily~ it doesn't matter what you want,
the foregoing applies)

mircea_popescu: moreover,
these are different items.
the chick with
the emoji and
http://btcbase.org/log/2018-07-24#1837516 are not
the same. i don't expect you
to care about
the difference, but i do.
to me it's meaningful, and in
the end
that's all it
takes, yes ? exactly mirror case of
the mats discussion above.
☝︎ mircea_popescu: asciilifeform consider eg
that pizarro doesn't need
to undertake
the (significant, and unbounded) cost of writing "code of conduct" or "terms of service" or any of
the other nonsense.
things have changed. nude bitcoin is dangerous in
the sense discussed in 2012, but bitcoin-as-currency-of-the-republic eminently usable
today.

then , BingoBoingo : plox
to power down rk 'A' and insert its stick into dulap , for reimaging, when subscr expires
mircea_popescu: "oh but mp, accurate glyph for lol would have
to include sound" "so ?" "so we can't do
that" "you can't do any of
the other shits you're doing either..." "but a limit must be drawn!" "no, motherfucker. a limit must be drawn alphabet existed already. you're
the no limits may be drawn crowd. fucking hang by your own petard, lol is a face emitting sound as glyph!"
mircea_popescu: motherfuckers managed
to "make
the LOL" have
tears in eyes.
mircea_popescu: i don't suspect she'd be in
the slightest malicious ; but i also don't expect she ever controlled a box. for all i know it's an open relay.
mircea_popescu: cuz i
thought
the idea was
that
there's some security concerns.
mod6: mircea_popescu: I don't see any problem with it as long as it's all paid up and we can you or
them directly for it.

☟︎☟︎ mod6: ok
thanks, mircea_popescu. noted.
mod6: np mircea_popescu, just
trying
to make sure we're keeping pizarro's house clean. cheers
mircea_popescu will unrate, i suspect
the point is made and i really don't give
that much of a shit.
mod6: asciilifeform: mats is a pizarro customer, he has paid
through july. however, we need
to consider letting him stay a customer since:
mircea_popescu: why
the fuck would i. strikes me a lot like "breaking up". who
the fuck does
that, what, i'm monogamous now ?!
a111: Logged on 2018-07-24 09:13 ben_vulpes: "i was wrong, and
the new piece lives at XXX" didn't pass muster or what
mircea_popescu: the puritan low-volume-comms
thing is generally a losing strategy, both socially and personally, but ESPECIALLY so here.
mircea_popescu: "i am
the guy who was going
to go
to
the republica oriental but
then went
to rural oklahoma instead and 2018 is
the year i explained nothing about
this on my blog".
a111: Logged on 2018-07-24 09:02 ben_vulpes: i'd dearly like
to hear what arguments were so compelling as
to
turn you from
the path of wifebeating, danielpbarron
mircea_popescu:
http://btcbase.org/log/2018-07-24#1837476 << more generally, actually :
that you're so fucking private about what's doubtless a public point of concern, namely
the strange case of
the conversion of a member of
the republic's lordship smells
to me of a colossal wasted opportunity.
☝︎ ben_vulpes: otherwise one implies
timeless energy-dragon crystalline perfection of self, which is a falsehood.
ben_vulpes: to point at your evolution as a human being over
time, for one
danielpbarron: i have
the article marked private, maybe when i have a new one
to link i'll ask about doing
that. but i
think
their point was if you don't believe it anymore why even have it
there?
danielpbarron: i'll have
to write up
the arguments made re: wife beating
ben_vulpes: "i was wrong, and
the new piece lives at XXX" didn't pass muster or what
☟︎ danielpbarron: yeah i'm not a huge fan of
the deleting part, but it was a point of contention among
the fellowship
ben_vulpes: i'd dearly like
to hear what arguments were so compelling as
to
turn you from
the path of wifebeating, danielpbarron
☟︎ ben_vulpes: oh neato, /me looks forward
to reading
trinque: thanks mircea_popescu; glad
to see it working out.
BingoBoingo: Well, going for a hash fork would be an obvious
troll
lobbesbot: asciilifeform:
The operation succeeded.
mircea_popescu: in other news, s.mg is definitely issuing warrants for
trinque & ave1
diana_coman: trinque,
that sounds
the right approach
to me
trinque: the "profile" is a giant wad of optionality about global portage state. I
think
the right move
to make
the portage-tree genesis as small as possible is
to select *one*
thing from
the optionality, and
then re-introduce options atop
that as we see fit (for arm support, for example)
trinque: diana_coman: glad
to hear your success with it. what's left on my end is
to smash
the gentoo profile we're using into a single dir. you can find
these at /usr/portage/profile , which weighs about 20mb iirc.
