billymg[asciilifeform]: gave our thread from the other day a re-read because i felt it deserved it. having had time to review here are some additional thoughts:
billymg[asciilifeform]: http://logs.bitdash.io/pest/2025-09-28#1034977 << awt and i described how he had immense influence. he was apparently personally friends with members of the trump administration, so i don't think those were 'crocodile tears'
billymg[asciilifeform]: and it wasn't coming from 'every mouthpiece', just the right-leaning publications/spaces. the lefty rags tried to stay as quiet as possible for as long as possible and then when speaking of it tried to spin it into some form of 'he had it coming for being racist/misogynistic/hateful/etc'
billymg[asciilifeform]: http://logs.bitdash.io/pest/2025-09-28#1034997 << fags were still very much in the closet in the late 19th century, not sure what point you’re trying to make
billymg[asciilifeform]: the problem with fags and trannies is that they are anti-civilization -- they don't produce and raise healthy children. and as we've seen over the last two decades, they absolutely DO NOT 'keep it in the bedroom'
billymg[asciilifeform]: http://logs.bitdash.io/pest/2025-09-28#1035020 << i don't see why this is even a divide. right wing is simply "normal" -- peace to all men of good will. some will be leaders some will be betas, society needs both. what society doesn't need is fags and leftists
billymg[asciilifeform]: http://logs.bitdash.io/pest/2025-09-28#1035022 << as you've insightfully pointed out before, cost of living is function of proximity to orc pit
billymg[asciilifeform]: public schools would be just fine if they weren't packed full of orcs and staffed with fags and childless cat ladies
billymg[asciilifeform]: http://logs.bitdash.io/pest/2025-09-28#1035040 << megastates currently all facing fertility crisis, due to leftist 'empower women' policy, and competency crisis from trying to replace native labor with foreign scabs
billymg[asciilifeform]: if they want their megastates to continue will have to face reality that leftism eventually collapses into itself
billymg[asciilifeform]: http://logs.bitdash.io/pest/2025-09-28#1035046 << i gave one off-the-cuff answer to this, would genuinely like to hear how you would approach this. continue current soros/anarcho-tyranny algo or something else?
billymg[asciilifeform]: http://logs.bitdash.io/pest/2025-09-28#1035094 << the whites in africa, despite brutal repression, still live normal, even comfortable, lives there. had international powers not coordinated to squash rhodesia would probably be further along
billymg[asciilifeform]: and this is moving the goalposts anyway, white man going to africa doesn't need to turn africa into type I civ right away, just needs to have better life than 'child gets raped/shivved in public school due to orc infestation'
billymg[asciilifeform]: if you've got the dough to live in the US and you like it, stay put obviously. the voyage to africa would be strictly for the young males with more testosterone than $$$
billymg[asciilifeform]: and here's the thing. if they die fighting the natives at least it's with dignity and on their own terms. not hunched over in the street from a fent OD or hanging from a noose after realizing that chopping their dick off was not as fulfilling as promised
billymg[asciilifeform]: also, before even pointing these men at africa should just aim them at the violent leftists and orcs currently in the US, i was just brainstorming from the (false) premise that the US is too full for whitey
billymg[asciilifeform]: http://logs.bitdash.io/pest/2025-09-28#1035113 << eh, for the 'not white unless can sed/awk blindfolded' definition of white, sure, but i always took that as being exaggerated for effect
billymg[asciilifeform]: are whites in america struggling because "they're africans", or because there has been a war waged against them for the better part of the last century?
billymg[asciilifeform]: http://logs.bitdash.io/pest/2025-09-28#1035151 << i'm honestly not seeing this. what measure are you using for this estimation?
billymg[asciilifeform]: 65k (69k!) was a mere blip, let's charitably say it was 60k. it's spent more time now at ~110k than it did at ~60k back then. so using those numbers, 60 -> 110, that's 83% more in nominal fiat terms
billymg[asciilifeform]: how much is housing/food/healthcare up compared to late 2021? i'm seeing like 20%
billymg[asciilifeform]: if you wanna compare to 2019 that's different, btc averaged around $7k back then. so "groceries now 3x vs. pre-covid" has to be compared to btc doing 15x in that time
billymg[asciilifeform]: it definitely seems like btc has been "tamed" (somewhat, at least for now), but it's still providing increased purchasing power year-over-year to hodlers
jonsykkel[asciilifeform]: re miler rabin:
jonsykkel[asciilifeform]: here the coment coresponds to algo1 http://www.loper-os.org/?p=2978#selection-637.0-656.0
jonsykkel[asciilifeform]: -- ... and now obtain K := X / 2^R, i.e., K := X >> R :
jonsykkel[asciilifeform]: FZ_Quiet_ShiftRight(N => X_Minus_One, ShiftedN => K, Count => R);
jonsykkel[asciilifeform]: but k is determined in code by (x-1)>>r
jonsykkel[asciilifeform]: it doesnt make a difrence to corectness since u only get the wrong k for the degenerate x%2==0 cases (if x is odd, x-1 only affects the lsb, and that bit is always shifted out since r>=1, so (x-1)>>r == x>>r)
jonsykkel[asciilifeform]: whops im braindamagd again, its the comment thats worng, and algo 3 writeup
jonsykkel[asciilifeform]: ned more caffine
