would-liquify: for whatever value of tank
mats: sappers had worst job in theatre for a decade
would-liquify: decade?!
mats: relegated to route clearance instead of hunting enemy
would-liquify: when did sappers hunt anything
mircea_popescu: would-liquify calculate the blast nbeeded to launch tank those 10 meters high
mircea_popescu: tank, generously, 10 tons.
mircea_popescu: rather than 45.
mats: i don't know all that much about sappers historically
would-liquify: mircea_popescu: standard 20kg charge ?
mircea_popescu: um.
would-liquify not sapper
mats: i was personally trained to fight in urban environments and handle demo
mircea_popescu: nope. a 20kg charge will lift a single 10 ton slab about a foot.
mats: and some mine clearance here and there
mircea_popescu: fracture it, if it fractures, yes. but lift it 10 meters ? hardly./
would-liquify: it would be interesting to calculate the optimum here from first principles
mircea_popescu: it would.
mats: no crawling around trenches, emplacing c wire, wutever
would-liquify: but i do not know enough about the energy transfer
mircea_popescu: because you realise, most of the pressure escapes to sides
mircea_popescu: less resistance
mircea_popescu: and the higher it gets - exponentially more so.
mircea_popescu: by the time you're a meter up, you're looking at a small projection on a circle.
mircea_popescu: (crater hole is also inside circle, so your radius is not the 1 m you lifted the tank

would-liquify: afaik modern antimateriel mines emphasize shaped-charge and jet of hot metal rather than brissance or overpressure per se
mircea_popescu: mats did you ever get any good at it ?
mircea_popescu: i assume so, seieng how you're here to tell the story
would-liquify: but i will let mats and the folks who dug them in & out for a living, answer
mircea_popescu: unlike a bunch of others.
mats: i spent a few hundreds hours in a shoothouse
mircea_popescu: would-liquify but you can make armor so that no jet of hot metal cuts it, period.
mats: i think so, yes
would-liquify: mircea_popescu: nope. unless you are thinking of reactive armour
mircea_popescu: i am.
mats: never deployed tho sadly
mircea_popescu: what i said : ceramics sandwhiched in steel.
would-liquify: (shaped charge can exceed bond energy for whatever substance)
mircea_popescu: the idea here being : us has the capacity to make purpose built item : too heavy armor for available weapons.

williamdunne: Looks good; I hope next year I may come.
williamdunne: ;;later tell mircea_popescu small CSS issue on trilema. header image is being prioritized over white background for text which sucks on my small-ish screen. On my system managed to fixed by changing position to initial rather than relative
gribble: The operation succeeded.

williamdunne: seals?
BingoBoingo remembers when seals wasn't that shitty
williamdunne: I've never used it, but I appreciated what the owner did
williamdunne: Seemed roughly equivalent to MPs response to the SEC
williamdunne: danielpbarron: Is that being worked on?
williamdunne: Wonder what the userbase size would be for that..
BingoBoingo: Back in early 2013 you could find tables full of people who weren't botting or otherwise engaging in computer assisted play.
williamdunne: BingoBoingo: Would that not be a problem with any sufficiently large platform?
BingoBoingo: williamdunne: Well yes. Once Bitcoin started getting its value up, Seals started sucking really fast.
williamdunne: Sucks seems like it should be relative when talking about a specific company in an industry, wouldn't it be fairer to say "online poker sucks"?
BingoBoingo: Well sucks compared to my early experiences with the platform.
williamdunne: Didn't look at it from that angle, good point
williamdunne: !up SquirtPrincess
BingoBoingo: Early on after I discovered it full or near full tables at any stakes, sometimes long but reasonable wait times. Some of the dumbest people would play any stakes giving a reasonable chance to make some bank. One night drinking with some friends they wanted to see Bitcoin Gambling and I acidentalied my way from 0.25 BTC to 4BTC on seals in about 45 minutes. Cjust changing stakes as I had the bankroll to do so.
SquirtPrincess: thxs <3
BingoBoingo: Later... Empty tables... Tables nowhere near full... Some stakes not being plaid at all. The generous marks replaced by botters not given to trashtalk.
williamdunne: SquirtPrincess: Welcome
williamdunne: BingoBoingo: Thats a profitable evening
BingoBoingo: It was. Seals for a brief period of time was a fun frontier shithole. Then Bitcoin went up and... Suddenly it wasn't the frontier no more.
BingoBoingo: Anyways back then it was like making $80 on $5
williamdunne: BingoBoingo: What is a $? ;)
BingoBoingo: fuel

williamdunne: Watching some show about drug enforcement, the woman is quite insufferable. They keep discussing how dangerous drugs are and talking through how some of the worst things happened like cutting etc and each and every time it has been some sort of government action. Still can't put one plus one together.
