lobbes off to bed
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo its fight.
mircea_popescu: and therte's a missing noun in last sentence there also (ripple article)
mircea_popescu: oh yeah, and the "wrongest thing uncle al ever said" trophy goes to...
mircea_popescu: "the brain is either dead or alive, but it's never tired".
mircea_popescu: his idea that muscular fatigue results from the dual oxidation style, and that the brain doesn't have it, that it only burns glucose and it only burns it completely is correct ;
mircea_popescu: however this does not mean what he thinks it means. brain function is principally the result of neurotransmitter exchange, not simply neuronal mithochondria oxidation (it's true that muscle function is fully described mitochondrially, but this is simply because muscle function is simpler)
mircea_popescu: the process of neurotransmitter exchange DOES produce undesirable leftovers. receptors need time to re-metabolize the leftovers of a shot, and bring both the receptor and the things signalling into it to optimal potential.
mircea_popescu: which is what happens while you sleep, all those receptors are cleanned up of the debris of having been shot into, and the dendrites that did the shooting are reloaded.
mircea_popescu: sure, it also happens while you're awake, but AT AN INSUFFICIENT RATE.
mircea_popescu: so yes, brain can very well and is very often tired, and can get exhausted enough to shut down, which is what death through falling asleep driving is.
mircea_popescu: if anyone still has a tardstalk acct, plox to drop a msg to https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=193932 pointing out to him that the reason for the influx is very much http://btcbase.org/log/2018-03-11#1787563 ; and should they implement the idiocy too they'll lose the marketshare too.
a111: Logged on 2018-03-11 15:10 mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo in other lulz, other than trying to push bitcoin crash as an implicit alternative, bitpay finally dropped bitcoin payments in favour of some nonsense "payment protocol" they developed in-house.
mircea_popescu: this poor dood... around since 2013, got ~0~ tips to his bitcoin address.
mircea_popescu: tell him also if he regs with deedbot ima send him 2 bitcents wtf.

mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo btw, any embarassing follow-up on the usg golden boy doing revolution in saudi arabia ? were those people ever released from that hotel ? are they impressed with the foreign ax handle plant ?
mircea_popescu: how's "reconstruction" going in mosul ?
mircea_popescu: this is what hearst does, you understand, keeps pounding articles about fatty arbuckle and how he "raped" some streetwalker.
mircea_popescu: i'm about 5000 times more interested in reading all about how usg hasn't managed to recapture mosul years after pantsuit press stopped mentioning it than whatever the fuck pantsuit press wants to talk about.
mircea_popescu: qntra sets the public discourse aggenda, not fucking new jew times.
BingoBoingo: Thank you for the prompts. Imma followup
mircea_popescu: just bear it in mind, you know, whenever you wanna write an article and there's nothing better, followup on any of FIFTY DOZEN grand pantsuit humiliations.
mircea_popescu: why should people forget the us army doesn't exist and was fucked in the ass by towelheads with a slight russian dusting over at mosul.
mircea_popescu: the yahoos over at state fell so low, the days of condolezza rice look like a bridge too far, now. woman ate with her feet.
BingoBoingo: Baking a Mosul update now. I am going to have to start follow up rotation.
BingoBoingo anticipates substantial lulz about that bridge coming in time. Nothing USG.STATE.PANTS big, but lulz
mircea_popescu: i anticipate a whole lotta more bridges coming down in time./

mircea_popescu: drugging the top 20% of each male litter since the 80s, and now also suiciding the one in a million that somehow still gets through.
mircea_popescu: a golden future for the pantsuit dreamstate.
asciilifeform: subj best known as a provocateur/stoolie, rather than 'top' anyffing else, tho
asciilifeform: (supposing any part of the story can be believed at all)
mircea_popescu: he hacked new jew times didn't he ?
mircea_popescu: i thought that was the relation.
asciilifeform: hacked, then jailed, then turned crown witness
shinohai: Of possible interest to BingoBoingo: Progressive Pantsuit Passes.
mircea_popescu: well sure. seems the fate of functioning intellect over there is turning or insanity.
asciilifeform: rumour is, shortly prior to death, d00d was arrested and психушка'd
asciilifeform: sorta like the debian derp
mircea_popescu: teh 1984 thing, eh ?
asciilifeform: rather.

mircea_popescu: first, they buy o'brien's book on revolution ; then they get room 101 ie http://trilema.com/2015/one-flew-over-the-cuckoos-nest/#selection-155.0-155.34 ; thjen they get released so they can meet some chick and go "i betrayed you" as if it's normalcy now ; and hang about and act as if they were people a little bit. and by the time everyone at chestnut cafe believes the philosophical zombie is actually what people are... well..
mircea_popescu: . dulaptime.
mircea_popescu: executive summary : a) don't buy any books from o'brien ; b) fuck your mother, today. preferably tie her up and rough her up after you're done.
mircea_popescu: and in other lulz, black chick that counts to 197 fastest : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A5t5k6u5cVw
asciilifeform: BingoBoingo: generally speaking in modern en. 'cadaver' is a 'prepared' corpse, i.e. for anatomical study...
deedbot: http://trilema.com/2018/woman-did-we-pay-those-people/ << Trilema - Woman! Did we pay those people ?!
jhvh1: mircea_popescu: The operation succeeded.
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: The selection was intended. I anticipate emergent details of bridgefail to bear out that kind of gross negligence.
mircea_popescu: what, no details yet ? happened yest ffs.
mircea_popescu: pantsuit in there, cooking up the books, "omfg if this gets out qntra will murder us, let us instead say..."
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: Bridge had a concrete CEILING for aesthetics, mentioned in the Qntra. There's also a bunch of process wank in the media discussions so far. Right now it's a wait for the hen to stumble sorta deal. Pantsuits get leaky in the blame passing game.
mircea_popescu: i see you know how this goes.
mircea_popescu: "questions swirl over FIRM that built", sez google. i'm sure, it's the bad implementation of socialism that's to blame.
BingoBoingo: Girlie architect/engineer lead/designed the project. FIU oversaw the project. Has a big program on this type of bridge construction they SWEAR was not involved in this particular bridge. So many places for shoes to drop.
mircea_popescu: women can mechanical engineer bridge too!
BingoBoingo: Sure some women can. But can snowflake redditymn?
mircea_popescu: well, mechanical means it moves, right ?
mircea_popescu: stationary bridges are racist because they priviledge station over movements that are much more important to us.
BingoBoingo: Plenty of canals have such things
mircea_popescu: yes, but those move horizontally, symbolizing patriarchy.
mircea_popescu: this one moved up/down. cowgirl bridge!
mircea_popescu: "Florida Bridge Woke"
BingoBoingo: Well, failed on upmove
BingoBoingo: Too much mass for joints, common #fatgirlproblem
mircea_popescu: don't you judge her!
BingoBoingo: Damn all those fatshaming orthopedists
mircea_popescu: last time one of these went down, minitruth found some bums to blame if memory serves ?
mircea_popescu: pvc pipe doesn't burn hot enough to melt steel reinforcing concrete, you remember.
BingoBoingo: AHA, bums, crackpipes, and PVC pipe
mircea_popescu: first time us snatches defeat from the jaws of victory, passes india for bridgedown count!
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo i-35 2007 collapse, btw, recall that ? whole lanes of zeks going to meet the river.
BingoBoingo: AHA, into the COLD river
mircea_popescu: some actuarial data can't hurt. us most dangerous place to cross a bridge by far, both overal and per capial.
BingoBoingo: Anyways, it shouldn't be long before shinyness and newness become leper's marks in old country
mircea_popescu: ENGINEERING FEAT CAME TO LIFE!
mircea_popescu: pantsuit can engineer too! building socialism of future works!!! etcetera
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo but i suppose it'd be fair to say the new generation of fucktards simply revolutionized bridges.
mod6: <+mircea_popescu> don't you judge her! << lol
mircea_popescu: so i idly ran diff on the double indemnity source as compared to what i published. the original is 193082 bytes. my version is 193976 bytes. the diff file is 395838 bytes.
mircea_popescu: i'm giving up on the notion publishing that is useful.
mircea_popescu: !~calc (193082 + 193976) / 395838
jhvh1: mircea_popescu: (193082 + 193976) / 395838 = 0.9778192088682744
