BingoBoingo: mp_en_viaje: This is a project I could start warming up again and
structuring as I work on building my toolset and working towards some sort of actual rather than UStarded level of literacy. If I break these particular mid-19th century retards up into bite sized chunks and publish indictments/annotations on the blog in a structured way, I would be filling a gap in documenting how intentional the failure of US "education" was.
trinque: and why are you soviets so damned allergic to
structuring things *like a business*
mircea_popescu: israel getting sanctioned should provide 6mo+ of dnc de
structuring "journalism" wank back at home.
mircea_popescu: poor communication with the exterior and poor
structuring of the internal process. no, it's not AT ALL the same fucking thing, oh, x is vaguely related to y so let's call it all z." the point isn't to make stu over here.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform, contention here is the
structuring of activity as theoretically summarized, it's not driven by events but by the need to produce the structure trees needed by indefinitely scalalable summaries.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform you know, i can't miss that for someone who read and traveled and so on as you say, naggum has a lot of trouble de
structuring nubbinisms.

https://archive.is/ZuzvO << from same rag, 'They accused him of “
structuring” — depositing money in increments of less than $10,000'
mircea_popescu: "memory", what's that. he got a bit of memory out of his own body through
structuring the environment.
mircea_popescu: actually proper english
structuring of mat would be a fine exercise for learning either. though more in the phd level of things.
mircea_popescu: what fits in head depends also on the
structuring of the head.
mircea_popescu: prisons have this very interesting fermentive effect for democracies. basically, it's easy enough to pretend like "our democracy" while the bread's still flowing ; once that stops, as it always does -- suddenly it's impossible for the "our democracy" pretense to insulate itself from the authoritatian re
structuring the prison drives into society.
ben_vulpes: mircea_popescu: bezzle land corporate
structuring is just sad on every axis
mircea_popescu: ben_vulpes i have words from mp's free critique services : 1. too big font, too much whitespace => way too few words in right column ; 2. single utility column => too much scrolling to get articles ; 3 no good
structuring of history (and i dun care about your categories enough to want them listed) ; 4. bad idea to put whole article in archive listing, because then you have to paginate the months which defeats the whole point
ben_vulpes: asciilifeform: i had a complaint about this a while back, reindenting for multiple-value-bind and de
structuring-bind and friends
ben_vulpes: in specific grading a lisp 'c' for 'prototyping support' (review panel completely ignorant of repls i suppose) and 'c' for 'high level
structuring' (macros don't exist i guess?)
phf: ben_vulpes: if you were to use bind everywhere you can use it (e.g. as a replacement for let, de
structuring-bind) your code is going to look sufficiently different that it's not clear if you're even programming in common lisp at that point. makes the result less readable for other cl programmers, and code becomes harder to future proof. the tradeoff is generally seen as not worth it (too intrusive for little payoff)
mircea_popescu: there's a reason medieval empires always included sumptuary laws, which prevented the margins from benefitting from the discoveries/technologies. yes this has a cost in terms of aggregate productivity, BUT that cost can, and in practice usually is, offset by the benefit in political
structuring.
mircea_popescu: in short, i oppose the socially de
structuring, anti elitist and equalitarian nature of signatures.
mircea_popescu: usg nightmare scenario is exactly this, highly defensive "everything's a fortress and with gun ports" bourgeois re
structuring of the town.
mircea_popescu: perfect ; ima spend the rest of the day
structuring this and we see!
mircea_popescu: mike_c> yeah. well, how long could mpoe have survived without mpoe-pr? << in fairness... mpex listed itself by reverse-merger with the then-listed mpoe ; which continued operation as a distinct profit center but that has meanwhile discontinued. it's such a historical layering of evolutions etc that some re
structuring years later seems inevitable.
phf: once i bootstrap entire cl you mean? (define-macro (de
structuring-bind ...
phf: my impression of traditional education is that when everything doesn't fit in your head, you continue cramming it, until in the flash of insight, a way of re
structuring the tree comes to you. in this case notation allows for a caching mechanism. somewhere on a blackboard there's a cluster of meaning, that you no longer have in your head, because head is full, so having that cluster contain higher density of information allows for a more
ascii_field: anything could be. could be that i turn up a crate of penis dope and then end up re
structuring whole personal economic life around getting moar.
pete_dushenski: "Twitter has said it is cutting 336 jobs, roughly 8% of its global workforce, as part of a re
structuring of the business. The job cuts will cost between $10m (£6.5m) and $20m in severance pay, while the re
structuring will cost between $5m and $15m, the company said." << sex sells. except when it's a platform for sex.
mircea_popescu: "The foundation is currently in the phase of re
structuring its communications activities. Several members of our current communications team in London are soon leaving or reducing their involvement in the Foundation in order to pursue for-profit ventures on top of the Ethereum ecosystem; we wish them the best of luck. And so, we have both the necessity and a unique opportunity to “reboot” that side of the organizat
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform it worked, too. the us managed to get yet another ally for isis, at the cost of de
structuring its mideastern holds.
mircea_popescu: 1. full rsa. 2. proper signature encapsulation. 3. sane
structuring of the keys. 4. etfc.
mircea_popescu: deep re
structuring of the pgp implementation is required anyway.
ascii_field: 'For the first time in the century or so of history of this particular human endeavour, text was deliberately structured with due consideration given not only to its meaning, but also to its source, and to its context. Prior attempts at
structuring software, at first consisting of a naive approach focused on meaning only, over time added a half-hearted consideration of context, very unequally and rather haphazardly. The
mircea_popescu: "It is, therefore, essential that the great capital bestowed upon our government by the splendid NO vote be invested immediately into a YES to a proper resolution – to an agreement that involves debt re
structuring, less austerity, redistribution in favour of the needy, and real reforms."
BingoBoingo: It isn't an actual property of Bitcoins. It is a failing of the social
structuring of the stupid.
trinque: having too much btc will have a word like "
structuring" pretty soon
gabriel_laddel: ^ It appears that I should properly make the business case. If the unix in question had a sane substitute for portage (clearly specified set of systems guaranteed to build for a specified set of versions, no cyclic dependencies when you try to enable the USE flag for docs globally, sane CLOS
structuring of the systems, `build' builds, `test' tests
mircea_popescu: then people jump at the fundamentally antiscientific re
structuring of science the americans did (and many places copied) after 1950 as a sort of noivel phenomena
jurov: overhead compared to what?
structuring/trading bonds?
artifexd: <asciilifeform> speaking of which, did artifexd follow mircea_popescu's prescription and use a hacked gpg for 'gossip' ? << No. I'm using go's openpgp code. However, I'm
structuring the code so that I can later add the option do the crypto via a shell out to gpg. Then you can use whatever version of gpg your heart desires.
mircea_popescu: otherwise if you could skirt reporting by
structuring instruments nobody'd own anything anymore.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform: ^ #b-a search is broken. why am i seeing text that does not contain the literal word '
structuring' ? <<< mthreat's thing has a stemmer.
assbot: 336 results for '"
structuring"' - #bitcoin-assets search
mircea_popescu: so... yeah. de
structuring society -> deskilling economy.
bounce: those civil forfeitures for people "
structuring" their deposits so their bank has less paperwork to do is clearly an effect but not, as far as I know anyway, a publicly stated purpose of the reporting rules
mircea_popescu:
https://www.r3.org.uk/ "R3, The Association of Business Recovery Professionals is the leading organisation for insolvency, re
structuring and turnaround specialists in the UK." but meanwhile www.r3.org.uk/styles/list.cfm?id=221 nike blazar
ben_vulpes: <ThickAsThieves> i'm like, you now i'll have to pay taxes on those too right? << dude stop letting the wimmins make important decisions like dietary and financial
structuring decimation: "A U.S. District Court has ruled that Argentina can't pay holders of restructured bonds until it compensates the holdouts, who have sued for full payment on bonds the country defaulted on in 2001. Some investors accepted discounted bonds in re
structurings in 2005 and 2010. The bonds fall under New York jurisdiction because they were issued in New York."
Vallance: Thinking of re-
structuring our business affairs
hdbuck: mircea_popescu hello MP, thx for the voice up, i came here with the hope you could help me apprehend that blockchain size issue (& considering it is an issue). been reading tons of articles about that and people talks about 'industrial' supernodes and/or 're
structuring' Bitcoin.. cant make up my mind whether thats good or bad tho. any inputs? :)
BingoBoingo: benkay: The economic grabass in the US will probably follow from this and the already documented economic mal
structuring mircea_popescu: perhaps amusing an exercise would be re
structuring the argument, except directed at them.
mike_c: yeah, so, i believe all the hairiness would be in implementing what goes on in those states anyway. i'm not sure
structuring the high level stuff around states would neccesarily make it much cleaner.
mircea_popescu: so the us is re
structuring its foreign debt after all huh
BingoBoingo: pankkake: So how are you
structuring this poll?
mircea_popescu: i am saying that numerous concepts are employed in a way which belies unfamiliarity with the field, and the general
structuring of the narrative is such that you suspect the author does not have a birds eye view of the topic.
mircea_popescu: most people buy by price, with tiny fluctuation re
structuring their consumption. this pushes producers to control costs, which leads to substitution, of actual ingredients with chemically derived erszatz.
bgupta: Another example would be
structuring a sports bet that closes for betting at the beginning of a season, but resolves at the end of a season. I think enabling these kinds of bets would bring in more betters, at the cost of holding onto their btc for a long time, and dealing with a potentially large book of unresolved bets.
ozbot: ActiveMiner, the crowdsourced re
structuring of AMC(mining) and VMC(sales) just paid 0.00001830/share
bitcoinbust: well id even go as far as 100% of idiotic ideas of
structuring government came from germany
benkay: mircea_popescu: what is the risk distribution and capital structure of afk banks you avoided with the MPEx
structuring?
mircea_popescu: Thank you all for checking us out. We are currently working on re
structuring our payment backend to be in full compliance with all government regulations. We will be back up as soon as all our ducks are in a row.
coingenuity: mircea_popescu: actually, he's high on my priority list- the manufacturer of the product he ordered has been doing a total re
structuring of their supply chain so i'm having to work with their delay
