mircea_popescu: ThickAsThieves all counted i would estimate there's between 100k and 500k popescus alive today.
ThickAsThieves: forum will be busy at least
mircea_popescu: Having been both a student and teacher at MIT, my personal explanation for men going into science is the following: young men strive to achieve high status among their peer group ; men tend to lack perspective and are unable to step back and ask the question "is this peer group worth impressing?"
ThickAsThieves: well, what makes an all-male peer group worth impressing?
ThickAsThieves: power?
ThickAsThieves: that theory seems flawed
mircea_popescu: power, if you seek power, money, if you seek money
mircea_popescu: knowledge, social preminence, whatever it is.
ThickAsThieves: purpose
mircea_popescu: that you can't seek.
mircea_popescu: but the entire roman republic, pre empire, can be correctly summarized as a set of benches somewhere, and people vying for position on the best bench.
mircea_popescu: all it was was a hs cafeteria, really.
mircea_popescu: all that followed followed from this simple principle, a hundred men wanted to sort out who sits where in the forum.
mircea_popescu: took seven or so centuries.
ThickAsThieves: meanwhile #b-a is hapening
mircea_popescu: so it is.
ThickAsThieves: so i could live like a king in cape town?
mircea_popescu: apparently 1mn buys you 2k sq feet of premium housing there.

ThickAsThieves: neat

fluffypony: ThickAsThieves: see, all the signs are pointing towards one place
fluffypony: well, one general vicinity
ThickAsThieves: i dunno i think this luxiry property thing i sskewed
fluffypony: well certainly for parts of Cape Town like Camps Bay and Clifton
fluffypony: R10 mil ($1 mil-ish) won't even touch sides there
fluffypony: maybe a very small apartment with limited sea view
fluffypony: and Bishops Court is also crazy expensive
fluffypony: but for the most part R10 mil will get you a pretty huge and elaborate place
fluffypony: with a fantastic view

ThickAsThieves: that last one is pretty neat
ThickAsThieves: kinda cramped lookin
ThickAsThieves: but interesting stuff
fluffypony: yeah it's not my sorta style
fluffypony: but still, $1 mil goes a lot further here than the small-ish town my in-laws are in in Germany
ThickAsThieves: it seems not too different than where i am
ThickAsThieves: you can get get a plain new house for like $180k 2000sqft
ThickAsThieves: and then if you have $1m you can look at the nice waterfront stuff
fluffypony: I wonder what criteria they used for that list
fluffypony: like maybe cities of a certain size?
ThickAsThieves: probably which places they sell real estate in ;)
fluffypony: lol
fluffypony: the wife watches this show called Mieten Kaufen Wohnen where Germans go house hunting

fluffypony: the first few times I watched it it was interesting

mircea_popescu: there's no argbument that the us-based vc-scammers are very good at what they do : faking numbers.
asciilifeform: but granted, the psychology is very reminiscent of '90s russia, when it had no formal tax code

benkay: or 'bath salts'.
asciilifeform: benkay: no actual baths involved. it appears to be the spam brand under which a thousand things are sold.
asciilifeform: and, naturally, the 'legal' crap doesn't contain delta-9 or any other thc, said substance being on the ban list
benkay: the brand i've been made aware of by a friend who once smoked three pots (!) all at once (!) is 'spyce'
benkay: important to note that just because a thing claims to be legal in the states is no guarantee of its legality or quality or anything really.
benkay: some claim it does a half-assed job.
asciilifeform: i must now confess that this is not a subject that i've any serious direct expertise in

benkay: effective iSP is much greater than that of tradiitonal rockets, even exotics like RFNO which have been abandoned due to engineering concerns.
benkay: bonuses in preheating the h2 by cooling incoming air
jurov: mircea_popescu: since the fiber is very light, major factor will be air drag (should be minimal in case first 100km of takeoff is vertical takeoff)
benkay: these things stack.
jurov: and acceleration
mircea_popescu: nono.
mircea_popescu: shear.
jurov: caused by?
mircea_popescu: caused by the medium going harmonic.
mircea_popescu: let me tell you a story from my youth.
assbot: [HAVELOCK] [AM1] 1 @ 0.48200001 BTC [-]
mircea_popescu: when i was younger i used to fuck this young opera singer chick. she did this trick whereby she'd sing into a glas
mircea_popescu: and the glass popped
mircea_popescu: great ice breaker at parties.
mircea_popescu: at any arbitrary point 100km worth of air can decide to sing traviata into your fiber and there's jack shit you can do about it.
jurov: neds to be simulated/computed. but i hope for such thin fiber, the air is viscouous enough so that it will dampen it
mircea_popescu: so do the math. calculate the the maximum shear force that can occur in a taut fiber of arbitrary length ?
jurov: like, you can't play guitar with silk threads
artifexd: Reduce the quality control on the fiber productions in order to introduce random variations in the fiber thickness and thus harmonic frequencies.
mircea_popescu: artifexd this leads you to the problem of the rope. do you know the problem of the rope ?
artifexd: No
jurov: don't forget the length (and harmonic freq) will change dramamtically over time
mircea_popescu: do you know what was the first industrial product, and the one thing that started the industrial revolution ?
artifexd: Rope?
mircea_popescu: jurov that doesn't help you. air isn't my gf.
mircea_popescu: artifexd exactamundo.
mircea_popescu: it works like this : the quality of the rope (ie, its uniformity) establishes the longest length of rope that can be operated credibly
mircea_popescu: as a % chance it breaks.
assbot: [HAVELOCK] [PETA] 5 @ 0.06638802 = 0.3319 BTC [-] {3}
mircea_popescu: that longest length of rope valueestablishes the largest ship you can build, i nthe age of sail
mircea_popescu: and since the ships use cannons, the larger ship always wins.
mircea_popescu: and so, for about a century, making better rope was more important for each country than making better ipads is today.
mircea_popescu: the first serious capitalist building was... a rope factory.
mircea_popescu: so no, making it resistent to harmonics by making it shittier just means it'll be shittier.
artifexd: I would think that the minimum diameter (given similar materials) would determine the breaking point, not whether the diameter of this cross section is the same as the cross section 100 ft away.
mircea_popescu: but you need to have it random.
artifexd: Within limits
asciilifeform: the only elevator scheme described to date, afaik, that stands a chance of working, is... 'tower of babel.'
mircea_popescu: otherwise your harmonics problem simply reduces to the new limits
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform whic is a cone.
artifexd: Truly random would mean that at some point the diameter would be 0.
jurov: but i insist. make your hair taut
jurov: and try to play it
artifexd: And in others it would be 100km across.
mircea_popescu: jurov arbitrary length.
mircea_popescu: that means i pick the length, not you
mircea_popescu: artifexd that's excessive, but a cone works well to resolve this problem.
mircea_popescu: course, that cone has to have a basis
jurov: yes arbitrary length. i'm gertain you have chick to pull it off.
asciilifeform: (note what shape the world's talles buildings were prior to structural steel.)
jurov: it will *not* oscillate because the air is viscouous and the fiber too light
mircea_popescu: the weight of the fiber doesn't really have much to do with it
jurov: it does. lightweight fiber gets dampened more than heavier rope
jurov: as i computed above, whole fiber will weight only grams.
jurov: you are telling me something that has few grams and 100km will be shaking violently in air?
asciilifeform: let's imagine unbreakable fiber, spherical horse. what's on the other end?
asciilifeform: i.e. how are you to convert the light into usable thrust.
jurov: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beam-powered_propulsion
ozbot: Beam-powered propulsion - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
jurov: when you use fiber instead of laser, receiver should be much simpler
jurov: and again, i'm not sure the pull stress on fiber will end up so big. fiber is already in use for to communicate with mother ship

mircea_popescu: jurov the weight has very little to do with oscillation.
mircea_popescu: the only place where it'd matter would be if the part of wire with high mommentum was lighter than the parts surrounding it. this isn't going to happen.
mircea_popescu: missiles are only in air a few seconds.
mircea_popescu: and missiles fail at an impressive rate for "no reason".
jurov: this will be too
jurov: i'm *not* talking about suspended operation
mircea_popescu: well then i don't follow.
jurov: the fiber is just a means to supply energy to the thruster
jurov: after 100km or whatever it will be snapped off
jurov: to save fuel
mircea_popescu: uh
mircea_popescu: you have any idea how slow ion/beam engines move ?
benkay: mircea_popescu: it's for superheating a real ejection mass
mircea_popescu: ...
jurov: maybe it can be done in such way it will have enough velocity to switch to ion
mircea_popescu: is this some sort of insider joke im not privy to ?
mircea_popescu: what the fuck, how many lux are needed to boil a mol of water ?
jurov: but even if it can replace only 30% energy that is otherwise needed to get by burning fuel
jurov: the saving would be disproportionally big
benkay: oh but mp you can do fun things with rectifying the photons and making of the hotness
mircea_popescu: well ok, but still!

mircea_popescu: "fairies did it"
jurov: hmm I found 4.0 MW/cm-2 fiber power density
mircea_popescu: well your fiber is mircometer.
jurov: i see, trying to convert properly
mircea_popescu: and that 4mw figure must be some sort of maximal for shorter distances, i can't imagine putting 4mw through 100km of fiber.

mircea_popescu: an exact mirroring of the infinite hitpoints problem : society strictly exists because of the trolls.
mircea_popescu: nevertheless, there's an infinite supply of pompous idiots, and an infinite supply of fecal "consensus" these shitheads readily adhere to.
mircea_popescu: so please, everyone with half a brain cell : if you've not trolled someone this week, do so.
mircea_popescu: preferably someone with a large ideological support structure : a feminist, a race warrior, something.

dub: one of my guides was a teenage guy with some english, works 7 days a week for a french operated tour for 5 months to pay for 1 month of 1 hour a day of schooling
mircea_popescu: cool kid. so did you take him out ?
dub: thats almost all of the kids
mircea_popescu: so pick one.
dub: thats not how it is supposed to work
dub: he's supposed to be able to get out right?
mircea_popescu: nope.
mircea_popescu: not on his own.
dub: his parents survived meaning they farm rice
dub: probably only enough to sustain their 9 kids
mircea_popescu: well yeah.
mircea_popescu: his parents failed to die fighting pol pot to protect the cool people of cambodia
mircea_popescu: which means their kid now has to depend on random people's charity.
mircea_popescu: sucks for him, too, seeing how the random people in a position to be charitable are trained not to be.
dub: they probably fought for pol pot, it was a chinese backed communist coup
mircea_popescu: so then the kid definitely should not be able to get out.
dub: (which the UN and international community continued to back 20 years after the genocide)
mircea_popescu: which is why rather than paying tax you'd be better off picking kids off the street in cambodia
dub: its not a solution
dub: the majority of his peers have inhereted their parents placitude meaning he's isolated, he can't build useful networks or get much help from anyone
dub: they also suffer the usual religious crippling with extra helpings of ancient superstition
dub: and now their former overlords (frenchies) or western capitalists own all the means of production and basically work the native population to death
mircea_popescu: you keep being fixated on this self-made thing.
mircea_popescu: that works in a different sort of society, one that's not made out of fuckwits.

mircea_popescu: According to court documents, the second amended Joint Chapter 11 Plan, approved on December 13, 2013 allows for the liquidation of hundreds of billions of dollars worth of homeowners’ mortgages to legendary business billionaire magnate—the fourth richest man in the world, according to Forbes, Warren Buffett’s Berkshire Hathaway, Inc. and Ocwen Loan Servicing, L.L.C.
mircea_popescu: The bankruptcy terms allows Berkshire Hathaway and Ocwen to purchase over $400 billion worth of mortgages and RMBS trusts for less than $5 billion. Once these mortgages are sold, Berkshire Hathaway and Ocwen will be bankruptcy remote. That means that once the mortgage assets are sold to them, American homeowners, like Morse, will not be able to obtain, through discovery, in judicial proceedings, the documents pertainin
mircea_popescu: g to their mortgages to determine if there is an issue with their property’s chain of title or verify if there is a free, clear and legally traceable ownership of their homes.
