(trilema) ben_vulpes: once i was a child, i extended them as much rope as i thought they'd need to hang themselves
(trilema) ben_vulpes: i don't extend the robert viragh s of the world nearly so much rope as i did before
(trilema) ben_vulpes: should punindented come back, it must be on his knees.
(trilema) ben_vulpes: BingoBoingo: 'twas so banal as to be entirely unremarkable
(trilema) ben_vulpes: how quickly do the rest of you feel like burning your identities?
(trilema) ben_vulpes: so that's one of the four new faces
(trilema) ben_vulpes: !up punindented
(trilema) ben_vulpes: punindented: you may continue this conversation here
(trilema) ben_vulpes: !v assbot:ben_vulpes.rate.punindented.-1:fdd8264a25a95bfb8946055ada53326a3a54a99c6cf8594b6f5effcaae04d145
(trilema) ben_vulpes: !rate punindented -1 unwelcome here
(trilema) ben_vulpes: one of those interesting $50 now or $2500 in three week problems i can solve due to hilariously checkered background
(trilema) ben_vulpes at office, fixing fancy couch $bzprtnr bought a year ago
(trilema) ben_vulpes: more new faces?
(trilema) ben_vulpes: literal bottom feeders.
(trilema) ben_vulpes: so they're a glorified waste-processing plant.
(trilema) ben_vulpes: plus costs of molds, does it cast? forge? roll?
(trilema) ben_vulpes: steel mill doesn't make sense to operate unless operated continually, no small-batch fabber is going to do so.
(trilema) ben_vulpes: even $robofab i worked for one time had their castings done by a casting company.
(trilema) ben_vulpes: hard to make a small steel mill. the things tend to be huge and dominate the area or go out of business.
(trilema) ben_vulpes: lovely highway driver, though.
(trilema) ben_vulpes: i can hear the damn thing depreciating just driving around town.
(trilema) ben_vulpes: 'twas built for glass-smooth late seventies roads.
(trilema) ben_vulpes: this is actually my greatest lament about the corvette
(trilema) ben_vulpes: far better to be useful helping mod6 than to waste time like me on deadlang impls that don't even work
(trilema) ben_vulpes: i do not buy this "they're all turing complete, so what's the aggro?" line.
(trilema) ben_vulpes: did we do the hundred and forty line node version of kill -9 yet?
(trilema) ben_vulpes: punindented: please no js
(trilema) ben_vulpes: please no node
(trilema) ben_vulpes: i think i understand what you're driving at
(trilema) ben_vulpes: yes this i get
(trilema) ben_vulpes: mod6: im still a bit unclear as to what "precedence levels" refers
(trilema) ben_vulpes: pete_dushenski: weev's tracker
(trilema) ben_vulpes: pete_dushenski: "we'll give you a zillion dollars provided you spend it all designing and producing our next generation of home routers"?
(trilema) ben_vulpes: the effect is rather beautiful.
(trilema) ben_vulpes: monochrome + color inversion
(trilema) ben_vulpes: heh relatedly i coerced my ipnohe into gothmode last night
(trilema) ben_vulpes: someone might figure out that nothing's gotten any better since then
(trilema) ben_vulpes: pete_dushenski: lolno
(trilema) ben_vulpes: what do you mean "precedence levels"
(trilema) ben_vulpes: mod6: press of a given head should result in the *exact same* tree under all V's, as i understand it
(trilema) ben_vulpes: i have to redo its press algo to recurse up the parents chain
(trilema) ben_vulpes: last i checked did not produce trees that matched yours
(trilema) ben_vulpes: mod6: eh it probably doesn't work anyways
(trilema) ben_vulpes: because rEFInd does not work on the ancient mbp and the ready ways to get rEFIt onto the damned thing is to...install it from os x first.
(trilema) ben_vulpes: hey pete_dushenski you may be entertained to hear that my openbsd adventures have led me to download 10.6 and dd it onto a usb
(trilema) ben_vulpes: makes for low snr is what is does
(trilema) ben_vulpes: of the suburbs of soi-disant cities in provinces nobody visits anyways
(trilema) ben_vulpes: seriously, vagrants publishing pamphlets in the far flung outskirts
(trilema) ben_vulpes: > js << lolwutwho
(trilema) ben_vulpes: punkman: a right
(trilema) ben_vulpes: (and ty, jurov)
(trilema) ben_vulpes: even if you don't move the coins around, would you show your charge and account for its not moving in donations?
(trilema) ben_vulpes: i'd really rather the books show the expected expenses, jurov.
(trilema) ben_vulpes never understood the 'broomstick' line
(trilema) ben_vulpes: but also the startup short requires tending to the egos of those being shorted.
(trilema) ben_vulpes: one of not crossing bezzle and bitcoin streams.
(trilema) ben_vulpes: not his problem though
(trilema) ben_vulpes: "web techmologies!"
(trilema) ben_vulpes: and eating of capital
(trilema) ben_vulpes: this margin/time/spend way of looking at things is very illuminating
(trilema) ben_vulpes: foundation spend << not to date
(trilema) ben_vulpes: aaand that was actually indonesia, so i'm probably thinking about the wrong thing.
(trilema) ben_vulpes: those were hdds
(trilema) ben_vulpes: cars are an insane deployment of capital and parking an insane deployment of re
(trilema) ben_vulpes: phf: and in those cities the cars park for 4+ hours and the trucks doing actual work double park next to them
(trilema) ben_vulpes: so then why are we engaged in this exercise at all? some future derp will just flip out over the bit being flipped in the opposite direction.
(trilema) ben_vulpes: unrelatedly, is it more difficult to malleate to low-s from high-s?
(trilema) ben_vulpes: ive nfi what bb and pete were thinking
(trilema) ben_vulpes: just because i'm not complaining about the moronic voicings in real time doesn't mean i'm not getting annoyed reading the logs elsewhere.
(trilema) ben_vulpes: after all the noise in the logs from last night i certainly have no more patience for it.
(trilema) ben_vulpes: heck, that's how the city was set up pre-interstate
(trilema) ben_vulpes would be entirely happy with horses and trams
(trilema) ben_vulpes: no more megabuxx for fixing all the damage cars do to the entirely serviceable tarmac designed originally for bikes
(trilema) ben_vulpes: no more megabuxx for interstate
(trilema) ben_vulpes: it's going to end up that way, mircea_popescu.
(trilema) ben_vulpes: sure, nobody'd blink.
(trilema) ben_vulpes: i don't fucking /park/ them, that's for damn sure.
(trilema) ben_vulpes: call a car, it's what i do
(trilema) ben_vulpes: no dirigible parking anyways.
(trilema) ben_vulpes: your oddball habits don't really bear on cascadian city planning problems.
(trilema) ben_vulpes: this particular thread is old yes
(trilema) ben_vulpes: noobsRus: NOBODY CARES
(trilema) ben_vulpes: but no, reseller of pink plastic chinese crap, you do not get more parking just for the asking.
(trilema) ben_vulpes: parking is for megacorps who can afford to waste the space in that way. generally supermarkets which are dying anyways.
(trilema) ben_vulpes: nevertheless this is my town, and more parking is not what i want.
(trilema) ben_vulpes: mircea_popescu: ofc
(trilema) ben_vulpes: phf: there aren't really "car people" in town. the closest thing is the various merchant groups owners all live in the suburbs and operate a variant of the quiznos/arbys/starbucks franchise, and so want 'moar parking!', because that's all they understand.
(trilema) ben_vulpes: noobsRus: nobody gices a fuck about r/t/hn
(trilema) ben_vulpes: phf: it's not "low car concentration" it's high people concentration. the concentration of cars in an area is nigh-meaningless given that a car takes up > 8 m^2 of space for typically one user, and this imposes a hard upper bound on a) the number of cars in a space and b) the number of people you can cram into a space.
(trilema) ben_vulpes: lotta new faces this past week.
(trilema) ben_vulpes: !gettrust noobsRus
(trilema) ben_vulpes: who are you though
(trilema) ben_vulpes: regardless of what the merchants want, tight on-street parking is both the prime indicator that and a core driver for a neighborhood being worth going to and living in. merchant complaints entirely aside (what do they know, they've forgotten the import of "foot traffic" and "location location location"), sacrificing car parking for bike access is the utter best way to get more people trafficing past your dumb shop.
(trilema) ben_vulpes: welcome noobsRus, no thanks necessary
(trilema) ben_vulpes: "because the city decided that on-street auto parking directly in front of the stores was more important than all-ages bike access to the future of those districts." << heh, andersen with the subtle shiv
(trilema) ben_vulpes: !up noobsRus
(trilema) ben_vulpes: asciilifeform: for the gentoo novice, what are the major de-poetteringizing flags to be aware of and set?
(trilema) ben_vulpes: o gawd pete_dushenski the cxt
(trilema) ben_vulpes: ascii_butugychag: how would i know, i'm just a human compiler
(trilema) ben_vulpes: statistically unlikely events and i guess vanity addresses
(trilema) ben_vulpes: has domain over chance, mean reversion
(trilema) ben_vulpes: hipster goddes of luck, aka lady infity, lady limit
(trilema) ben_vulpes: ifni rolled me a good one.
(trilema) ben_vulpes: *and* the child may be getting it as well.
(trilema) ben_vulpes: *and* the girl is sick.
(trilema) ben_vulpes: unrelatedly, i got an entire night of sleep last night
(trilema) ben_vulpes: "maybe this" and "nop"
(trilema) ben_vulpes: cancer has scalar treatments, non?
(trilema) ben_vulpes: small pineapple, large pineapple, should not matter when sitting. idem broomsticks prolly.
(trilema) ben_vulpes: and the cops won't touch it because "be nice to the homeless!"
(trilema) ben_vulpes: the parks department won't touch it because it's not in the park proper
(trilema) ben_vulpes: there are twenty feet of tarpaulined hoarder-pile stacked along 20th avenue, just outside the aforementioned col. summers park
(trilema) ben_vulpes: related lolz that didn't make it in
(trilema) ben_vulpes: oh i'm sure i did at some point, i have a bad windmill mabit
(trilema) ben_vulpes: i can almost guarantee that i am not catching encodings right now
(trilema) ben_vulpes: \r\n for every newline
(trilema) ben_vulpes: browser also submits
(trilema) ben_vulpes: what would you expect to see there?
(trilema) ben_vulpes: to the extent it was designed, it was designed to eat ascii.
(trilema) ben_vulpes: ;;market sell 100000
(trilema) ben_vulpes: ;;market sell 10000
(trilema) ben_vulpes: ;;market sell 5000
(trilema) ben_vulpes: ;;market sell 2000
(trilema) ben_vulpes: ;;market sell 1000
(trilema) ben_vulpes: anyways, it's not amazon, it's amazon cn, and they're not buying boats, they're operating as a freight forwarder.
(trilema) ben_vulpes: wait that's stainless
(trilema) ben_vulpes: ahaha man if they're letting you keep the container you might even be able to make a profit just selling the empty boxes for scrap
(trilema) ben_vulpes: ;;calc 8377.5 * 0.24
(trilema) ben_vulpes: ;;8377.5 * 0.24
(trilema) ben_vulpes: betcha you can keep the box too
(trilema) ben_vulpes: wow 40-footers going for 1.3k from shenzen to la
(trilema) ben_vulpes: "But the idea of buying ocean freight is far less appealing for U.S. companies selling on the Amazon Marketplace. " << you don't fucking say i'm pretty sure i learned during the alcoa saga that nobody exports from the states any more
(trilema) ben_vulpes: i can see them snapping up a mess of freighters at rock bottom prices as the bdi keeps collapsing
(trilema) ben_vulpes: adlai: might enjoy it
(trilema) ben_vulpes: you should see pedalpalooza
(trilema) ben_vulpes: tallbikes, gorilla bars, swing-arms?
(trilema) ben_vulpes: pete_dushenski: are there no bike scum where you live?
(trilema) ben_vulpes: "here are ten checkpoints in the metro area. GO!"
(trilema) ben_vulpes: bike scum shit
(trilema) ben_vulpes: but yeah notrly necessary for the casual pannier derp
(trilema) ben_vulpes: helmet still recommended if yr gonna play the alleycat
(trilema) ben_vulpes has bikes at three houses around town
(trilema) ben_vulpes: BURN YOUR CAR.
(trilema) ben_vulpes: fucking interstate highway project. greatest goddamn misstep.
(trilema) ben_vulpes: goodness no, they're designed by smart people to...work efficiently as capital equipment.
(trilema) ben_vulpes: one of your favorite threads :P
(trilema) ben_vulpes: pete_dushenski: yes there's clearly something at work other than sanity
(trilema) ben_vulpes: electric drivetrain with onboard generation is entirely the way to go. the train people figured this out a looong ime ago; "diesel electric".
(trilema) ben_vulpes: they cant conceive of unbundling the good idea from the rhetoric.
(trilema) ben_vulpes: ecoshits aside
(trilema) ben_vulpes: nono not the hybrid part, i dgaf abt that. the electric motors with onboard generation.
(trilema) ben_vulpes: but that low end torque!
(trilema) ben_vulpes: it looks like the least stupid thing to come out of the ecomovement from over here
(trilema) ben_vulpes: pete_dushenski: so is there something wrong with the volt drivetrain that it's not showing up in pickups etc?
(trilema) ben_vulpes: but are you really that swole yet?
(trilema) ben_vulpes: btw BingoBoingo i did not miss the brodin line, chuckled
(trilema) ben_vulpes: hey, nobody's going to know what you're talking about unless you go so far as to talk about it
(trilema) ben_vulpes: o this is the sr thread again?
(trilema) ben_vulpes: although asciilifeform probably does the sme thing with esoteric computer hardware. how would i know...
(trilema) ben_vulpes: and yes, the likes of asciilifeform and i gather punindented boggle at the notion of doing h2h's with marginally-known parties with kilobuxx on the barrel
(trilema) ben_vulpes: and yes i took a goon, but who doesn't?
(trilema) ben_vulpes: i bought a car for 6kusd from a man i found on craigslist who...sent me his address.
(trilema) ben_vulpes: but hey, posit a specific case and let's proceed from there
(trilema) ben_vulpes: punindented: real life interactions have just about epsilon need of geocoding to proceed
(trilema) ben_vulpes: lol dirty how?
(trilema) ben_vulpes: me? nothing, just pointing out features of the way addresses already work.
(trilema) ben_vulpes: yes, one must know how to read them. the universality, plus the randomness of hashing completely buries the location signal.
(trilema) ben_vulpes: addresses increment from known points, streets are in locations known to natives. addresses encode 'where', legibly.
(trilema) ben_vulpes: did you catch my point about proximity info embedded in the way things are done traditionally?
(trilema) ben_vulpes: dunno that im into geocoding at all nearly so much as legibility
(trilema) ben_vulpes: dont mention it
(trilema) ben_vulpes: !up punindented
(trilema) ben_vulpes: re sks thread signed bundles of keys on everyone's websites is probably the best way to go
(trilema) ben_vulpes: i don't really see that in 3w
(trilema) ben_vulpes: one of my favorite parts of addresses is how they indicate relative proximity to someone who knows the map
(trilema) ben_vulpes: neato, trinque. i'd love a copy.
(trilema) ben_vulpes: danielpbarron: do you still have a copy of trinque's gentooizer?
(trilema) ben_vulpes: keep looking
(trilema) ben_vulpes: since sks is on the chopping block next, i imagine !register will eventually eat plaintext pubkeys.
(trilema) ben_vulpes: ui programmers are especially prone to this, imho because the smalltalk MPI style of MVC and data marshalling through layers is very much not a paradigm that lends itself to simplicity of code design.
(trilema) ben_vulpes: i do not see the point at all in differentiating between txnen-which-are-relayed and txn-which-are-mined
(trilema) ben_vulpes: pay for your gravestone today!
(trilema) ben_vulpes: death comes for us all
(trilema) ben_vulpes: work for clients, get fired by clients
(trilema) ben_vulpes: > and only two years remain before they will be having a layoff << work for other people, get fired by other people
(trilema) ben_vulpes: FIGHT ME IRL UNCLE AL
(trilema) ben_vulpes: "you're not a man until you can get a girl off just by tickling her with your whiskers"

(trilema) ben_vulpes: i have farcial hair now, total game-changer
(trilema) ben_vulpes: that cuspy "ohmigaerd the fun times are about to be oooover" age
(trilema) ben_vulpes: > "GREATLY EMBOLDEN ONLINE CR1M1NALZ"
(trilema) ben_vulpes: make nothing, no more than mircea_popescu makes gurlz enslave themselves to him
(trilema) ben_vulpes: you've seen the handwritings
(trilema) ben_vulpes: asciilifeform: i actually enjoy my carbon units
(trilema) ben_vulpes: youthful architectural mistakes on one hand
(trilema) ben_vulpes: i have yet to build the partial-differential-equable-actuator-standing-on-ball to haul computer along on the walk to the office
(trilema) ben_vulpes: now /that/ is luxury
(trilema) ben_vulpes: asciilifeform: computes on commute?
