mircea_popescu: asciilifeform very much what it says on the tin, you go out with tools and materials, find natural resources, develop them and get minerals.
Framedragger: (only worx for URLs that had already been archived on archive.is (doesn't matter if by scriba or not))
shinohai: That's one of the biggest `Signal+Tor makes you invincible!!!!!` guys too.
BingoBoingo wonders if Monsanto has found a mesotrione resistance gene
mircea_popescu: actually no, lessee. a try's about seven seconds, and then if something's found that's about another 10. you don't always find something, but if skilled enough you mostly do, so say you gotta make 4 steps a minute. each step calls for a random radian value, which meaningfully is about 9 bits but nevertheless comes as a double which iirc is 64 bits. so you're doing 256 bits ie 4 bytes/minute.

deedbot: fromphuctor voiced for 30 minutes.
shinohai: "I got voice, better leave without speaking!"
mircea_popescu: in random lulz, "**UPDATE- 4/10 22:21 EST** I mentioned in this post that it was hacked, that was incorrect of me. The person who created the list simply exploited Fetlife’s code to release information."
Framedragger: this means that next time i provide paginated and nicely indexed access to relational data to a customer, i can call the feature "HACK THE SYSTEM"
mircea_popescu: alternatively it should be standard defense of every "hacker" : dude, i didn't hack anything, i simply exploited code to release information
mircea_popescu: isn't this quite literally the definition of the term among the illiterate yet contemporaneous monkeys ?
mircea_popescu: it's funny, at least to me, the evolution towards fetisization. coupla decades ago, hacking meant that party a informatizes whatever system, say its satellite network, and party b hacked into the said system through the novel avenue ~and used it~ to i dunno, whatever, make itself a plate of french toast.
mircea_popescu: today, hacking means that "o noes, we discovered stratfor was being hired to spy". dude...
mircea_popescu: and in other randomness, let there be shed a tear today for the poor wedding photographers. i mean the expensive ones, catering to an "upper class clientele" consisting of women slightly uglier than the average with fathers slightly richer. dear god these poor people, they try. they ~try~.
mircea_popescu: so much effort put into making the 30yo gorgons look like 16yo fragaria vesca
mircea_popescu: to quote, "but my son and my daughter came out of the water and said papa, you promised you'd play!"
mircea_popescu: anyway, turn towards fetishization continues. in another decade "hacking" will be collecting software tools which ~could be used~ to explore directorry structures in which commands ~could have been run~
mircea_popescu: whereas scholarship will be i dunno, screenshots of "discussions" including no equations but a lot of "concepts" and lolpics. perhaps full of comrpession artefacts ot the point of unreadability.
mircea_popescu: and we'll look back on the age of the "idea man" as a great again focus.
mircea_popescu: who the fuck wears socks with actually nevermind who the fuck wears flipflops!
phf: i'm pretty sure that look is permanent. i've seen it while they negotiate with a shopkeeper, while they cary bags, while they decide where to go, etc.

trinque: asciilifeform: curious, by "consless lisp" did you mean basically a Forth with parens? or in other words, sexps of funcs, params, and a stack, and that's about it?
trinque over here farting around in amd64 asm, wondering if the above is enough to say done with ASM, time to move up to implementing lisp atop the forthylisp
trinque has very little interesting code yet, just a learning project.
trinque: rather, not solely the above, but implementing the lisp primitives in it.

deedbot: chatter voiced for 30 minutes.
chatter: sun is not doing allah is doing
Framedragger: ^ (not saying it's not a lost cause while working for one of those "tech" "leader" companies, in the way that applying adhesive to a bursting pipe is not fixing a water problem)
chatter: to accept islam say that i bear witness that there is no deity worthy of worship except allah and muhammad peace be upon him is his slave and messenger
Framedragger: oh yeah, i've seen quite a bit of this on various tor irc channels
shinohai: There is but one god, and Muhammad is his faggot
trinque: oh, some kind of community outreach going on?
Framedragger: hm, i guess so. seems to be the case. apparently it's a US tech company employee thingie (with some springs of PR by the companies)
phf: hmm if chatter wasn't just randomly spewing scripture it would be mildly entertaining if we had two competing fundamentalists with matching knowledge of their respective books
Framedragger: indeed, that's be pretty interesting. (chatter came from leaseweb, so unfortunately prolly just a bot. but a polite-enough bot.)
mircea_popescu: Framedragger if they weren't dipshits it might even matter.
Framedragger: and in other "socpsy" newz,
http://journals.sagepub.com/doi/full/10.1177/0956797616673193 << "When given two scenarios: one in which an individual reacts to his girlfriend’s infidelity by beating her, and the other, by beating her cat, participants judged that the cat beater had worse moral character than the woman beater, even though the act of beating a woman was judged to be more immoral."
mircea_popescu: there's no immorality involved in this for the love of all that's holy.
mircea_popescu: nobody actually knows what anything is, do they. not anymore. just word word word word word noun verb adjective numeral whatever the fuck no meaning whatsoever to be found anywhere ; complete and total anomie.
mircea_popescu: anomie is NOT "a condition in which society provides little moral guidance to individuals". for one thing, because it's not a ~condition~, it's a situation. no, these aren't the same thing. for tyhe other, becaue individuals provide guidance for society, not the other fucking way around. the "individuals who are guided by society are called children.
Framedragger: one day i fear of mircea_popescu going into recursive loop by being outraged by wikipedia definitions, using other terms to show his point, and then finding those terms to also be ill-defined on wikipedia. :)
mircea_popescu: anyway ; the cat situation evaluates to worse quite explainably, because if woman misbehaves and woman is beaten then 1 norm is breached ; whereas if woman misbehaves and cat is beaten then 2 norms are breached. the way reptile brain works, the sum of two variables is larger than either one no matter what happens ; and larger by a fraction of the largest of the two, not by the smaller of the two.

mircea_popescu: but hey, idiocy doesn't hurt ; if it did wikipedia'd be larger than silk road.
