ben_vulpes: nsf grantee produced a odd little video of a chrome browser running under programmatic control solving captchas and 'brute forcing' passwords

ben_vulpes: if your time has no value :D
ben_vulpes: thing is terrifyingly long-lifed
ben_vulpes: > break into the community

ben_vulpes: origin story of this particular side quest is that i wanted to remove things from a list without having to jump through the hoops of remove and erase by using std::list remove_if

ben_vulpes: first step towards slicing boost, if that's even possibru

ben_vulpes: the spaces gcc wanted for Real True C++11 Standard Compliance appears to have not affected node behavior
ben_vulpes: asciilifeform: nominal nsf grantee
ben_vulpes: kicker is that they're nsf funded
ben_vulpes: wiley hackers, i tell you! they could be trying to get in, right this minute, through the window! or maybe just by talking to their wife, they can learn enough to put into their artificial intelligence hackery machines to make guesses at your password! you need this thing! that we sell!
ben_vulpes: "You can then add some data protection by remotely encrypting data during the closed business hours when data could be exposed to wiley hackers."
ben_vulpes: sheeeeit i do say this is some highly refined snake oil: http://www.spotcyber.com/
ben_vulpes: ho ho ho si se puede indeed
ben_vulpes: none of it much larger than "cottage industry"
ben_vulpes: asciilifeform: printing of tshirts and stickers, leatherworking/seaming, i believe the glass fabrication folks are in on it as well
ben_vulpes: even funnier is the "car lease"
ben_vulpes: i think this gets the rest of the gcc bitching: http://p.bvulpes.com/pastes/k9CNE/?raw=true
ben_vulpes have stale strange in tooling
ben_vulpes: although wtf, perhaps this vpatch does not nuke all barfage
ben_vulpes: one sec, brain liquifier running
ben_vulpes: i can reproduce up the specific barf if you'd like
ben_vulpes: something along the lines of string literals next to template macros
ben_vulpes: gcc's c++11 mode began complaining about such

ben_vulpes: 1% compiler flags, 99% syntax gynmastics
ben_vulpes: unrelatedly, /me testing a node compiling under c++11 rules, wild vpatch for anyone who wants to play along: http://p.bvulpes.com/pastes/p2A0L/?raw=true
ben_vulpes: something something also "involved in 'porn'"
ben_vulpes: glorious socialist republic, at the forefront of socialist innovations claimed and actual, from right to die to filthy black-brigaders messing up all of our lovely peaceful protests
ben_vulpes loled at an old local liberal spitting on the ground when having to discuss "eugene anarchists"
ben_vulpes: who could've predicted that a transportation system designed to give every schmuck their own car for driving as far as they can would be so expensive in the long run. who could've predicted the automatic transmission would accelerate the trend, or that robocars idem.
ben_vulpes: aaaand because the rail system is nonexistent, freight weight will not change and continue to rip roads up.
ben_vulpes: mitigation actually runs in two directions; reduction in wear on road from lighter vehicles and reduction in wear on lighter vehicles from their own asses bouncing around. human-mass will keep going up, though, which will also eat the savings.
ben_vulpes: bridges still fall down in the great again
ben_vulpes: there's a very real lower bound on the savings to be delivered with this vehicle though, and they're probably going to get burnt down by the poor folks who can't afford any better than the plastic having to drive further because must ams cities.
ben_vulpes: plastification of typical vehicle mitigates against wear and tear from ever more degraded roads. less mass, less demand on the shock absorption system.
ben_vulpes: the naive counter that "cars and more land area covered with rapidly-depreciated asphault solve nothing either!" is stupidly ignorant of path-dependent processes. america is the land of cars (thanks eisenhower) and will remain so for as far out as i can see.
ben_vulpes: tar me not with their wailing!
ben_vulpes: relatedly, light industry in p-town is gearing up for some serious wailing on the topic of how all of the cheap housing for their cheap labor is ~gone and now cheap labor has to buy a car and fuel/maintain/operate/park it instead of biking ten minutes to the shabby-chic warehouse from their squalid shared living setups
ben_vulpes: craigslist for the maga demo?
ben_vulpes: i'm halfway curious about the cl it poops out
ben_vulpes: i am making very serious faces of 'no fucking idea'

ben_vulpes: asciilifeform: pretty good reason to stay in florida
ben_vulpes: little 'lisp os' doesn't have its own c compiler, author makes "transpiler": https://github.com/froggey/Iota
ben_vulpes: "vip" rates are "30 us per song with no touching", "ultra vip" rates are "100/10 min and maybe we let you touch something", ben_vulpes rates are "just sit down and tip like normal and we'll writhe all over you for reasons"
ben_vulpes: well from the cause of "i was just watching but okay" and not towards the purpose of "how much for how little"
ben_vulpes: mircea_popescu: not really a squeeze, "no, come on. we'll grab a side stage. you've been great just come along."
ben_vulpes: and this is why i don't play eulora
ben_vulpes: i got two of the established girls to clear one of the minor's booths for the three of us this evening! for a whole set! for less than the cost of a single song in the vip room!
ben_vulpes: i'm playing with how much they'll do in the club for how little this year
ben_vulpes: i should ask i suppose
ben_vulpes: no idea
ben_vulpes: upon consideration it's probably just observation bias from asking "so whose dancing do you like"
ben_vulpes: sure!
ben_vulpes: anyways, this particular club of its own accord mandates bottoms at all times. result is that the dancers are of markedly higher dancing quality than girls in the clubs up the street, charging 5x cover.
ben_vulpes: glorious socialist utopia of pac nw: best water, bare cunts and right to die
ben_vulpes: rather
ben_vulpes: also 2 decades of right to die, but that's neither here nor there
ben_vulpes: nudity is free speech in oregon
ben_vulpes: nono, bare cunts
ben_vulpes: mircea_popescu: commodity pdx strip clubs have an utterly inane rhythm. 3 dances: first sorta-clothed, second no top, third no bottoms.
ben_vulpes: i mean heckle subtly, from the booths. with eyes and conversation.
ben_vulpes: i found the strip club where bottoms stay on and hey what do you know, average dancer expertise is through the roof
ben_vulpes: hey you know what's great fun at the strip club? find the girls whose rodeo this is not their first and heckle the noobs.
ben_vulpes: http://btcbase.org/log/2017-04-13#1643059 << aye, concede. can we move on to the failures of "culturing * populations and rubbing them across the sensitive mucous membranes is a bad idea" now?
ben_vulpes: oh shame, cohen got embroiled in shit?
ben_vulpes: make friends with girls in nursing school is probably the only mitigating strat
ben_vulpes: you pay a shitload of money and then try to never make a claim
ben_vulpes: we have health insurance
ben_vulpes: we don't have healthcare
ben_vulpes: well there's a whole world of coordination i've never really explored
ben_vulpes: hm swimming
ben_vulpes: hey who wants to tell me that biking fucked my back up
ben_vulpes: i biked by a gaggle of old women doing precisely this a few weeks ago
ben_vulpes: i watched some related lols play out with 'poly' friends this year. $girl couldn't bring herself to break it off with her wikipedia editor, $guy didn't offer the platform to which to jump or demand the jump, tension built and $girl doubled down on the socialistoid anxiety production machines to everyone's dismay
