mircea_popescu: this is directly contradictory to how the world works, and specifically because your abstract objects tend to be contextless, which requires too large an expenditure of "meaning" for them to exist.
mircea_popescu: you have politics/current affairs, which are mostly a bunch of who we're calling the bad things this week, putin "doesn't understand how the world works" for having dared to humiliate our beloved leadership bimonthly for the past year, and israelis are whatever and on and on
Namworld: Regulating people usually involve punishment after the fact, since altering how the world works isn't really a possibility.
mircea_popescu: how do you suppose the brave new world works ?
mircea_popescu: no, it's how the aml crap works. world's noobliest bayesian filtering implemented by janitors and congressional aides.
mircea_popescu: fluffypony yes man, that's how it works. take dr foreskin : he does something stupid. he's publicly told just how stupid he is. he moves on to claiming that THE WORLD IS BROKEN

mircea_popescu: i guess may account for why putin "doens't understand how the world works".
antephialtic: and to that I say, that's just how the world works
dub: meh its too hard to explain how the world works to someone thats never had a job
cazalla: cads my point is this, a bunch of black teens driving around in an 82 corolla (thinking it's a 64 impala) blasting some rap music is going to attract the wrong type of attention, white man was stupid to react to it but this is how the world works
mircea_popescu: i mean sure, i'm convinced he's just some random guy who's been operating on some common misrepresentations of how the world works
mjr_: from my perspective, what survives is what should have survived, a little tautological i know, but that is how the world works
mircea_popescu: into a thread of dicussion where they inform the presumably mouth-agape site ops of how the world works.
evoorhees: I mean... all this stuff, how it works now, is great for hackers and tech people, but unfortunately the world will not be using privacy and ITsec when they work like this
mircea_popescu: ya well, this isn't how the world works.
