BingoBoingo: And remember how
as the anglotards were growing up, all their schools "focused" on teaching cross cultural literacy
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform this may be ; but
as far
as i can see, chinese is 100% "insurance-against-future" by mass. specifically : if py yi shi ki comes to mean the bad, then it never meant that in the first place. but until it does -- it means!
BingoBoingo: Gotta make sure you are an honored ancestor for passing down which black spice makes the rice taste better and which black spice kills the old folks
as they drip spacekitten pig balls
mircea_popescu: yes, but i very much do not trust chinese.
as a language i mean, and
as a cultural process.
mircea_popescu: "oh, gotta get a real job". i'm sure she's rotting in some half-employment
as we speak.
mircea_popescu: (i suspect the whole reason us culture is so gender-awkward, btw, is that sometime (in the 1880s ?) older kids told younger kids "how hard it is" and it stuck
as part of the culture in that culture-less place.)
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: From my understanding and interviews the more desirable cultivars are just
as happy to live and grow. All the wank around them simply appears to be optimization problems.
mircea_popescu: so it prolly doesn't even count
as "a fifth of a pack", more like "a twelfth"
mircea_popescu: certainly something the foundation could've been advertising itself
as doing, lo these many years.
diana_coman:
as one might tell, I'm looking into using CRC in smg.comms
as per latest spec
diana_coman: aaand if I get it right, GNAT.CRC32 uses Ada.Streams.Stream_Element and it expects a String
as input so overall it really sounds like back to GNAT.Sockets style, ugh
lobbes: btw bot also accepts abbreviations such
as 'k' and 'mn' (e.g. !Qbid 366 310.08mn)
mircea_popescu: i don't have a ready list of the many varieties of items therein sold, maybe lobbes keeps it
as part of his eventual marketing efforts, but anyway. it's known diversity.
mircea_popescu: and i expect
as the thing starts getting some history behind it, time intervals can narrow out, removing most of the fx unpleasantness.
mod6: I'd love it, make me a helluv a lot less nervous --
as I was for the last 10 days.
mod6: I'm not confident that we could get that done
as quickly
as we need it. I did ask, a lot if people were interested. But no takers. But anyone is free to start up an auction now.
mircea_popescu: anyway, the only important magic number is the 10e9 ecu = 1 btc value. otherwise the whole thing's open, you can just say i dunno, "will only take BTC"
as a comment in the next line, or w/e.
mod6: yeah, i think
as people see a few of these take place, it'll make a bit more sense.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform 1bn ecu = 1 btc. 168 is hours to live, here 1 week. "wFF" is a symbol i ad-hoc'd, "wired filthy fiats". explained in the next line. q0 is just a joke
as to the poor quality of the fiats in question, has no bearing in this context.
trinque: this would look like an ideal position for pizarro,
as you'd have far more of a sense in advance what fiat you may be able to pick up.
mircea_popescu: this,
as far
as i can tell, is perfectly useful to pizarro
as things stand now, and perfecly approachable to everyone, and a permanent solution to the record and advertisement requirements people have.
trinque: and it's not
as though I can't eat +-5%, but why, when learned folks have a process for narrowing those kinds of gaps, and don't need a bot to do it.
trinque: mod6: you did ask me in private, which I appreciate, but that's not how I'd prefer to do this,
as per all the ^
mod6: I actually didn't think it was any big deal,
as previous months I had made these deals behind closed doors with jurov
as wel.
☟︎ mircea_popescu: just
as long
as we're clear "media-wannabes" includes everyone, from washpo and guardian to what have you.
mircea_popescu: i don't see a problem. maybe could be had warmer, but not clear that can be done without elongation. terseness' is a virtue,
as ~nobody reads anymore.
mircea_popescu: i don't expect the cows to sit on couches
as a resul;t of this.
hanbot: here's a question for the forum at large
as i'm thinking about the missives on my plate for today: if tbf outreach is a goal, and talking to people a primary avenue of same, given the rocky road to voice in #t these days, should the foundation host its own castle-channel?
BingoBoingo: Re: earlier fashion thread. Turns out farm country is rejecting the ole trend
as well
http://archive.is/RYM2v >> "are you OK with your psychology "teachers" getting "teaching" materials from this website? Because I'M NOT. My kid will NOT sit thru this [...] itspronouncedmetrosexual.com "
mircea_popescu: and,
as it happens to all fashions, this one meanwhile became unfashionable.
BingoBoingo: <mircea_popescu> i can't remember wtf "truffles" was. << I think you figured it
as girlgendered at some point
mircea_popescu: anyway, naked pics outliving in the public sphere the woman pictured seems morally dubious, exactly in the vein of old margo channing acting a "25 yo, age's unimportant -- [
AS LONG
AS SHES TWENTYSOMETHING!!!]".
mircea_popescu: kinda lulzy how june 2014 gets to count
as ancient in my head some point on or about july 2015. year-and-a-month!
a111: Logged on 2015-07-05 22:31 mircea_popescu: if that 1% doesn't feel the state like a glove, the state's gone. kinda like my ancient "the state may exist inasmuch
as and for
as long
as i can't tell it's there."
mircea_popescu: thereby the personal incentive3 to great wot ("but mp... why should i work my ass off and stay up nights to get good ratings from good people?!?!?!") is precisely so
as to turn #eulora into #trilema.
mircea_popescu:
as long
as "engineering" and computer pseudoscience and tesla and deeply dysfunctional entirely-not-a-chance-in-hell-of-ever-working-why-don't-you-talk-of-hp-anymore "electric" cars get money... on what grounds can you deny it to irigaray and her brood ?
BingoBoingo: <mircea_popescu> asciilifeform because the "science" just
as much on the dole, and consequently the main reason the "grievances field" (i kinda like the term tbh) even exists. << I didn't realise until today that I am one of the leading indepenent scholars in greviances studies
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform because the "science" just
as much on the dole, and consequently the main reason the "grievances field" (i kinda like the term tbh) even exists.
BingoBoingo: Mind that
as recently
as 2010 one of the centers there had just been inaugurated and the older one was opening satellite facilities at Chinese universities
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: Not
as much getting
as they used to get. Today the SIU department of Philosophy has 7 faculty members. Since I was there were five promotions to emeritus (some rather young) and at least three other departures. In the intervening decade they have ONE new face on their faculty web page.
mircea_popescu: the notion that the 1920s produced a whole lotta churchgoers is exactly of the same cloth
as the notion that the 2000s produced a whole lotta academics, "discourse", "awareness" and what have you.
mircea_popescu: so the notion that somehow it could be undone by meaning... item exists economically. all the women "liberated" from depending on a male are still just
as dependent. much like all the slaves "liberated" from slave owner are just
as much slaves.
trinque: isn't
as though they get real food out of it either, just velveeta and fungal breadlike. what's to care about?
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo they have a point, only sane way to look at the orcs is
as what they are -- a primitive culture.
mod6: Hopefully it won't be that bad this time, but I'm having to learn all of this stuff
as I go.
mircea_popescu: girls don't think what you think they think, not least of all because ~the only fucking reason~ you lie to yourself about thinking that's what girls think is so
as to save your lazy ass the effort of ever talking to one.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform entirely their choice to make, copyrwriting or journalism. i dun care. but the choice must be made, by them, and
as such.
mod6:
http://btcbase.org/log/2018-10-03#1857624 << I did hear about this bug, of course. I had considered perhaps sending out something about this, but before I even dared to speak, I wanted to investigate the problem in prb-shithub,
as well
as the CVE. I haven't even had a spare moment yet.
☝︎ BingoBoingo: Now, If Trump makes Maduro sink a USG aircraft carrier the derp squad might try a run at US embassy, but I doubt they would have the commitment they do when serving
as hinchas de Peñarol
diana_coman:
as for ideas, dunno what/how you ruled out i.e...new zealand?
mircea_popescu:
as a factual matter, did random "bitcoin news" crapola know or didn't know mod6 represents tbf and can be reached foir comment ?
diana_coman: uhm, but somehow packages were received with the switch
as source ?? and actually it IS extra packages
as it were, since adding them does result in more than were sent...
diana_coman: asciilifeform, I can tell at least some of them, yes, because they got reported
as "errors" because not what expected
a111: Logged on 2016-04-12 15:09 asciilifeform: it always struck me
as a kind of 'bsd 4' - yes, 'hackable', yes, 'small', but the ~wrong kind of small~, the kind that will balloon into the same megalith
as sbcl if you were to add all of the missing but necessary pieces.
mircea_popescu:
as almost anyone in the republic can well attest, 2 weeks is pretty much the most constrained time can ever get.
lobbes: (obligatory pizarro pitch to log readers: where else can you have 100% context on -why- service is being done on your box,
as well
as watch it unfold real-time? Compare and contrast with, say, this example from heathenlandia (Edis) >>
http://archive.is/NVpIR) a111: Logged on 2018-10-03 00:38 asciilifeform: diana_coman , lobbes : your old drives are currently in dulap, lemme know when you're ready to have'em reformatted ( so your boxen dun try an' boot from'em instead of the primary ) and reissued to you
as secondary disks.
a111: Logged on 2018-10-02 18:53 diana_coman: asciilifeform, keccak can spit out
as many or
as few bits
as you want it to, not sure what is you q there re keccak
a111: Logged on 2018-10-02 18:17 mircea_popescu: ok. 1 and 6 we ignore,
as they're trivial for our exercise.
