BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: Looks like we might have to call it 200 satoshis
mircea_popescu: makes sense.
mircea_popescu: kakobrekla, what's it mean to mpif ?
kakobrekla: i dunno
kakobrekla: you gave me 150 now you have 150.47241
kakobrekla: dpaste is not permanent however so perhaps this needs to go someplace else
mircea_popescu: prolly ya.
mircea_popescu: start a blog!
mircea_popescu: anyway, f.mpif may performance, 4.42419221, a little over 1%. 0.5ish of it went to cover for last month's misrepresentation of atc, leaving a little 1% clear.
kakobrekla: how about you include it in mpif statement?
mircea_popescu: aite ima drop it as a comment on bottom
bloctoc: does the 1% go to NAV calculation immediately?
mircea_popescu: jurov, i see you +0.3 btc or so.
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: That car anology explains sucinctly why I stay with automatic transmissions. I respect the limits of my ability to control a motor vehicle and anything that reliably saves me cogitive overhead is welcome.
BingoBoingo also has never had a car without automatic headlights...
kakobrekla: eh? i dont even think about gears when driving
kakobrekla: comes natural after a while
BingoBoingo: gears become a hassel when you share the road with American drivers
kakobrekla: you havent been in italy
kakobrekla: possibly only india could be worse
kakobrekla: something like this
kakobrekla: cant find the one i had in mind.
mircea_popescu: omfg who are these idiots
BingoBoingo: kakobrekla: My concern is more the rural roads where I'll be cruising and then an old person in a buick or fucking red neck in a tractor interupts me.
kakobrekla: BingoBoingo once you get a hang of it its not more complicated than breaking
kakobrekla: do you have the breaks on auto as well?
BingoBoingo: kakobrekla: Yeah, but when you are barreling down an open rural highway and half to slow to 20km/h because fucking tractors you need to save mental energy for cursing and obscene gestures
BingoBoingo: clutch wastes a foot, shifter wastes a hand

benkay: if you're not in control of the gearbox, you're not driving the machine
benkay: in the same way that if you're relying on an Object Relational Model to talk to your database, you're not actually writing data to your data store.
benkay: that layer of abstraction in between you and the machine is going to either give you a headache down the road or you're not going to get the performance the machine is capable of
benkay: with an ORM you'll inevitably find yourself writing raw SQL.
benkay: and with an automatic transmission you're limited to "GIVE ME ALL THE FAST RIGHT NOW...please."
benkay: that demonic AI in between you and the gearbox will prevent you doing anything to burn fuel at a rate sufficient to eke performance out of the thing.
kakobrekla: <benkay> with an ORM you'll inevitably find yourself writing raw SQL. <- depends, but in most cases generally not specific to anyone, perf is not an issue
benkay: *shrug*
benkay: for 90% of derpy web apps, an orm is entirely adequate.
thestringpuller: Damn BingoBoingo, i feel the same exact way
thestringpuller: fucking driving
kakobrekla: even for your mobile apps.
benkay: a significant chunk of the remaining apps are going to get popular and have load requirements that rendering the abstraction layer insufferable.
benkay: well, especially for mobile apps - in my experience most of the data is local to the phone
benkay: that render*
BingoBoingo: benkay: Well automatic transmission is less gearbox and more hydaulic slush box
benkay: i'm familiar, BingoBoingo
benkay: there are still gears, however.
benkay: you're talking about the clutch.
benkay: "torque converter"

TomServo: After having driven automatic transmissions all my life and buying an older land cruiser, I have to say driving a manual really is a pleasure.
TomServo: I'm annoyed having missed out on it this long.
