mircea_popescu: apparently if you sign up to star in one usg.blue production, you're stuck doing all the sequels also.
mircea_popescu: watch them lose, get gutted, etc. anyone recall ALL THE OTHER pantsuit vehicles, meanwhile gutted in exact same manner ?
mircea_popescu: apparently the dogs can learn to give it a berth. great perfume too
mircea_popescu: i'm not proposing a reign of terror, merely intolerance.
mircea_popescu studiously and quite deliberately ignored the whole thing as a wikitarida/reddit of its time.
mircea_popescu: actually when Mocky_ is done with qatar history, maybe he regales us with a summarized java history ~from inside~ on his blog.
☟︎ mircea_popescu: they failed to identify the victims, and failed to victimize them.
mircea_popescu: as long as the tim swansons of the world remain an oppressed minority, the world can be sane ; and not futher.
mircea_popescu: it shouldn't be difficult to notice that the "gcc plugging wrong end of funnel" is not simple coincidence, but the necessary result of the feelings and
optionalities these idiots perceive themselves to be having without actually having them.
mircea_popescu: otherwise what, every useless 30something female with crotch rot under fluorescent lighting, also "is doing a lot of work" because she "feels" so ?
mircea_popescu: i don't give a shit some insane nonsense "feels like" it's doing "a lot of work". the work done is measured at the useful end.
mircea_popescu: that "% of horse power" is entirely not % of horse power ; the measure of horse power is at the torque end, not at horse's feelings end.
mircea_popescu: imo is the perfect approach to "you wish to use insane hw, you pay cost for it".
mircea_popescu: whether that can be remedied in a group or not remains, i suppose, to be seen.
☟︎ mircea_popescu: maybe 98. but in any case, the only discernible reason anyone uses it is that everyone is, individually, too lazy to write a proper one.
mircea_popescu: "it worked for free and open plant!!!" "yeah ?" "UNFAIR!"
mircea_popescu: now we're left with all those bleaters with livers, that are also spurious. "but mp, why won't you go into the liver ?" "wut ?"
mircea_popescu: their window's closed, nobody cares what they think nao.
mircea_popescu: they should have built an army in the 90s, rather than go for weakass jwz-catering.
mircea_popescu: the computing 90s are soon to be just a memory, as these artefacts of sheer wtf slowly disappear.
mircea_popescu: at the worst this'll get us a nibler notion of the gcc tree.
mircea_popescu: trinque did you ever see the guy irl lately ? say this year or something ?
☟︎ mircea_popescu: well what the fuck. like on earth turns out to be just as philosophically and cognitively unsound. which it is.
mircea_popescu: "as a language, it requires you to specify in great detail what you do not know in order to obtain the experience necessary to learn it."
☟︎ mircea_popescu: this sounds quite persuasively elegant and so on. but then,
mircea_popescu: "C++ is philosophically and cognitively unsound as it forces a violation of all known epistemological processes on the programmer."
mircea_popescu: nevermind "open source". honor the same lordship, therefore have well explained things, therefore have compatibility.
mircea_popescu: from now on, "compatibility through doing things a ~certain~ way, for good and ~well explained~ reasons".
mircea_popescu: the "compatibility through software length" thing has gone on long enough.
mircea_popescu: the mister god point is pretty fucking lulzy, not to mention accurate.
mircea_popescu: basically there's not much room for middle here. either rk or else monster -- even things such as shared hosting are better off on large x86 server than a bunch of mid ones
mircea_popescu: yeah, but... if you'rte gonna beef-server, might as well get a 32 core monster.
mircea_popescu: doesn't seem like the end of the world to "can't thread properly" on a 4 core box.
mircea_popescu: well, doesn't seem like the end of the world, then, to say "this is the rk, has so and so list of advantages as before discussed (truly independend box, etc) and the one drawback meanwhile discovered that you can't really do tmsr-like threading in ada on it, which may be fixed later"
mircea_popescu: possibly at the time of trump's washington dinner "humiliation". by whom, by this crop of the barn-born ?
mircea_popescu: i was looking for that pic a whole ago, you know. "where's the one with the bunch of them huddled together like so manby peasantsa"
mircea_popescu: if bitcoin were moar entrepreneurial we'd see stock price movement in pizarro whenever such events happened lol.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform your problem's open tho, what the heck are you gonna do, put up more arms we can't compile for ? put up something else ?
mircea_popescu: and i somehow still don't see the only item of any import in there, which kinda makes the whole list derisory.
mircea_popescu: this is a good idea. put the hashes somewhere and there you go.
mircea_popescu: mccain, seriously. why not have him embalmed, "everliving emblem of roosocialism!!!" etc.
mircea_popescu: problem with all this is -- the option's always between trust and knowledge. since we've discovered we can't trust gcc, it follows not only that we now have to write our own ; but that we must maintain the people who know how to write one.
