ben_vulpes: asciilifeform is the canonical "clojure suxx!" standard bearer but i don't think he has my contempt of familiarity
mircea_popescu: "Atlantic Halibut are Officially OK, but those from the Pacific Ocean are FORBIDDEN. If a halibut threatens to break your knees, especially if your fishmonger operates out of a New Jersey strip joint, enjoy dinner. Salmon is bad unless Sarah Palin shot it." lmao this guy...
mircea_popescu: also, it's "de rigueur" not "de regueur". wtf is this, regor mortis ?
mircea_popescu:
http://log.mkj.lt/trilema/20160925/#53 << and yet i bet you that a) it's "cloud" bullshit ie no relation between can and label and b) if i hit them they'll go down faster than a honest 2gb ram dual core dedicated which retails for like 100 bux.

mircea_popescu: it is pretty good. archive teh google do i qualify thing for prosteriority.
a111: Logged on 2016-09-25 02:48 phf: "Richard Stallman and GNU refused to let libreboot go, despite stating its intention to leave culture rant libreboot.org" (particularly hilarious rant in light of
http://zammit.org/libreboot-screwup.html) mircea_popescu: this is an invariant throughout human society ; and reasonable.
mircea_popescu: which historical example do you suspect of being otherwise organised ?
mircea_popescu: from classical china to pirate jamestown, the state rests on the backs of young virgin males.
mircea_popescu: therein included - vikings during their fun years ; britain throughout ; the beyazit ottomans and whatever else you may wish to think of.
mircea_popescu: how practical, well founded, sane etc the state is has no bearing however.
mircea_popescu: i don't believe the "find a strong man" fantasy he discusses existed anywhere outside of say 1500 italy etc.
mircea_popescu: even there it's dubious, as the writers of the period do not fail to inform you, from the decameron to the barber of seville.
mircea_popescu: anyway, there's two separate issues here. one of them is, "who brings food home and who eats". the fact remains that as averages and in general terms, men hunt and women nest. and this is a fact, and very much invariant throughout human society, pre or post letters.
mircea_popescu: the OTHER of them is, "who should tell who what to do". and this is - like everything else involving women - a very much on-demand thing. if you tell her what to do, she will. if you don't, she'll tell you.
mircea_popescu: this is in my eyes exactly as it should be. the contorted proposition that "because [we make the meat] therefore [we should tell you what to do]" seems pretty ridiculous. if it is already the case then it's right and proper that it should be the case ; but if it isn't the case then the obvious "oh yeah ? you and whose army ?" sinks the entire argument.
mircea_popescu: what, god should come from heavens and tell that girl elliot's been eyeing that she should go talk to him ; and otherwise gather up all the women and explain to them that they should listen to the men more ?
mircea_popescu: for example, since it's a funny one - prior to usian invasion, the traditional society of hawaii was nudist ; and women were forbidden from eating anything but tuber paste. no fruit ; no meat ; etc. this arrangement survived for millenia, but went away cca 19th century.
mircea_popescu: now, who is to say that female in honolulu SHOULD or SHOULD NOT have a grape ? on what basis ? etc.
