mircea_popescu: people WILL tell you what ails their mind. it's why it's an ailment in the first place.
mircea_popescu: but, to do a third, mp's linguistics class : the sufferer does put the signature of his sufferance in his utterances. which is why they're so easy to identify (and how they manage to find each other and clump together like dogvomit.) dodo bird will say dodo bird things, such as "consensus" and "it is hard to lose money hiring mit graduates" and on it goes, lengthy list.
mircea_popescu: and as to the parallel mp school of philosophy :
http://btcbase.org/log/2017-05-03#1651269 << no, regression is NOT a functional means to salvage. not your childhood, as the psychiatric defense ; not nonsense, as the "philosophical" bullshit deployed here, not dead notions of citizenship as seen in the cancer eating the legal system, not bad software through the "magic" of "a framework" and "Abstracting away" etc. regression
☝︎ mircea_popescu: except it's not a boeing, it's a woman, and the flipping and licking by children does not get her going. even if i doing the ~exact same thing~ end up with an ex-lesbian in my living room.
mircea_popescu: children don't get to run things, or in his own words "like watching a group of nursery school children who've stolen a Boeing 747 and are now flipping all the switches trying to get it to take off"
mircea_popescu: except he doesn't think he can do this, because, essentially, he does not think he can be an adult. he is a child, and his name for daddy is "mit".
mircea_popescu: now then, once they already told him they were lying to him, through having made a "consensus", it was his fucking job to decide which way they're lying. if they're overvaluing he should have sold ; if not he should have shown all of them the door.
mircea_popescu: there are two ways in which polling agents results in the same string. the first is, if the item considered is banal, you show a cup to three people and get "it is a cup" back. the second is, when they have agreed among themselves to, basically, lie to you. "we call this rape", and the subtle difference already says it. "it's sex, the kind we call rape, much like if it were a cup the kind we call grail"
mircea_popescu: "The terms we'd been offered from the three other serious venture capitalist bidders were similar."
mircea_popescu: nevertheless, the dodoism is apparent WAY the fuck sooner, much like the castle actually became das schloss way before the casual reader noticed.
mircea_popescu: phf eh, the whole satanism thing is all about mock-catolicism. "oh, it's a cross, but it's BLACK!!1 oh it's a mass but it's DARK!111".
mircea_popescu: seems the transition to graveyard culture will be indeed smooth.
mircea_popescu: if you take her in heels might as well make her leave the dress at the entrance. go for the whole nine yards!
mircea_popescu: (yes yes the actual paris is a smelly boil. but how's a girl to know ?)
mircea_popescu: paris in may though... i guess if i were a girl i'd be trying to suck up to you right about now.
mircea_popescu: lmao this guy. i think the lord globetrotter may have been more apt.
mircea_popescu: she was in women in cages and whatnot, i'm sure tarantino jacked it to her loads.
mircea_popescu: (oh btw -- it's MELANIE (for reasons, the dark one, see disgrace also) not natalie. nfi what i was thinking)
mircea_popescu: otherwise it'll be nothing but "hey guise, some bits flipped because cosmic-rays and that's how the deed got deeded" all over the place.
mircea_popescu: whole world of crypto is based, fundamentally, on the rejection of this naivite.
mircea_popescu: but otherwise, it's really fucking simple : standard bitcoin node either has a transaction in its mempool or does not have it in its mempool. if it has it then it can't keep it secret from you, which in standard bitcoin is anyone. if it does not have it then it does not have it. that's the whole story of mempools.
mircea_popescu: not like said relativism CAN have a footing anyway, so the whole difference is moot in any sense.
mircea_popescu: what he's saying reduces to "the bitcoin nodes run non standard code which keeps two mempools - one to tell you, a different one to use for their own, not transparent reasons". this is exactly what i was saying also, but restated in such a way to give some appearance of footing to the usual tardstalk "oh, guise, you can't know for sure" nonsense.
mircea_popescu: not that i have any doubt one examples may be forthcoming for the indefinite future.
mircea_popescu: and in general - nobody will care about you enough to shoot you for you.
mircea_popescu:
http://btcbase.org/log/2017-05-03#1651278 << there's an absolutely phenomenal scene in jackie brown (the tarantino movie) in which nigga explains "you can't trust natalie, but you can always trust natalie to be natalie." he entirely speaks of the whole dreamer generation, white cocksucker of the male or female persuasion indifferently. dodo bird goes "dodo", reliably.
☝︎ mircea_popescu: Framedragger what do you mean you don't agree, you just did it ?
mircea_popescu: somehow even more credible in having been disavowed by its original author. people with constructed negative credibility, how about that!
☟︎ mircea_popescu: (the difference between mp and pg being that mp is not a dodo bird. pg meanwhile -- deleted the item from his own site. how about that, to lose a company is one thing, but to lose THE HAVING LOST IT ?!?! the actual part of your own personal history ? fuck me sideways, these idiots.)
☟︎ mircea_popescu: one of the first large companies to be sunk by "other side" nonsense.
mircea_popescu: that's, after all, the principal tool of neoteny. "all opinions are just opinions and bla bla". you ever read the ars digita bit ?
mircea_popescu: the whole rota debacle -- exactly the same thing, as well. "oh, but that was something else". no, not really.
mircea_popescu: but that something else is always going to be the same exact thing -- the realisation that the world as dreamed is not the world as is, and the incapacity of the child to metabolize this fact.
☟︎ mircea_popescu: Framedragger it's always going to be "something else".
mircea_popescu: the point is that this nonsensical construct where "oh, we'll avoid having our balloon worldview pricked by not doing anything -- hey, this guy is doing something, how come he can't give less of a shit about all the pricks we fear ?!?!" is wholly psychogenic. i get that the man-child abomination really truly fears the imaginary pricks he perceives to exist. but it can't be allowed to stand, this notion, that his nonsense is s
mircea_popescu: to quote the true avatars of this "our democracy" retardation, "we could build a cabin like that!" "well... not us. but two men could."
mircea_popescu: Framedragger it is infantilism, through and through. "the only people who can do things are the parents, and we're not parents. the only thing we the children do is talk shit about mom's pie."
mircea_popescu: and if mp organises a conference there's going to be a conference and if he does not there's not going to be one and if we need an isp how about mp makes it and so on and so forth up the fucking wall.
☟︎ mircea_popescu: nevermind that if mp does the accounting then the accounting is done and if he does not IT IS NOT DONE!!! no matter fucking what! what was the response to mp showing up in 2012 and showing the tardstalk crowd how to do the accountin g ? they didn't start doing accounting, they STOPPED it altogether. no more reports now, were all the rage back then but now it's no longer "something new to say", as discussed in the logs.
mircea_popescu: and they will continue to, for the indefinite future, hide behind "oh, i can't say fuckgoats and THAT is why my brain doesn't work -- it's my principles!!1"
mircea_popescu: mp then told them where to stick it, they're STILL struggling to digest the matter, a year later.
mircea_popescu: Framedragger bitbet ended up short ~same btc, idiot chorus went "well since mp happens to be doing the accounting for it, and he's rich anyway, he should make whole our delusions as how the world works. because we have parenting issues from a bad childhood and also are so fucking speshul."
mircea_popescu: he's going to tell you if your bits are random!!! because randomnesity is a property of the actual bits. this is sanity nao.
mircea_popescu: o look, " luke macken has created a systemd startup script"
mircea_popescu: "Get an array of 64 bytes from whatever source of cryptographically-secure randomness you are using. Encode them as hex, and make a REST query to the randomsanity service. The service will return ‘true’ if it those bytes look random and nobody else has submitted the same stream of bytes; otherwise it will return ‘false’."
mircea_popescu: could be just some random env stupidity, which from experience can eat a dozen dev hours for entirely n ogood reason. "nobody'd have thought of that"
mircea_popescu: mod6 try on a vps or something standard ? just to get a comparison point ?
mircea_popescu: you'd have to be mp, and to have read at oxford before trafalgar, to know such things.
mircea_popescu: besides, who even knows the ancient hick-hock joke anymore ?
mircea_popescu: it's a very good catechism of the thing, really. honest toil and honest cunning. very square jawed.
mircea_popescu: the mockery itself was not bad, notwithstanding the sad situation of the dorks somewhat in the vein of you know, that fat annoying kid with a hot older sister. "why should i wash, have you seen the boobs on Jane ?!?!"
mircea_popescu: Framedragger a decade ago, some dorks got some money together paid some english speakers to mock romanians' efforts at translating shakespeare, and everything else.
mircea_popescu: i expect asciilifeform and no one else would well enjoy it.
