| diana_coman: | yes, we did have that additional downtime too; I guess I'm soon due a "4 years as cto" article too, huh. | [04:15] |
| mircea_popescu: | diana_coman, there's this magic at work, whereby the obvious manages to become invisible. in ~theory~ "nobody noticed" what a piece of shit pizarro was because they noticed it plenty, but opted not to say anything out of respect, for me. | [08:22] |
| mircea_popescu: | this is a fine and dandy theory, but then again nobody in fact did not notice we, i mean, WE, the republic, nearly obsoleted apache and php in favour of flask and python. | [08:23] |
| mircea_popescu: | and the patern continues, we, minigame, nearly obsoleted the whole data thing there discussed above WITHOUT EVEN LOOKING. | [08:23] |
| mircea_popescu: | this is a serious political issue, stupid cunts and worthless cucks look at, say, nancy pelosi without immediately repressing her, "go bake some cupcakes somewhere, alienface". | [08:24] |
| mircea_popescu: | it is not socially permissible, stupidity must be socially repressed, socialism IS in fact obscene, it can not tolerated at the table, measures must be fucking taken, what the fuck. | [08:25] |
| mircea_popescu: | there's zero pushback, generally an' socially, which is how it spreads. | [08:25] |
| mircea_popescu: | i am sitting here doubting whether in fact nobody noticed what a piece of shit pizarro was because of respect for me, ie, for a perfectly excusable reason, or because it looked to them just like the female state, which is FUCKING INEXCUSABLE. | [08:26] |
| mircea_popescu: | for my sins i didn't provide for a way to discern, but ima sure as fuck taking measures towards this in the future. | [08:26] |
| diana_coman: | mircea_popescu: re data formats in existing client, it dawned on me that in fact at least *some* looking I did and even documented, precisely as I was trying to extract something useful out of it; eg http://ossasepia.com/2019/09/14/eulora-client-data-hierarchy-v20/ - this is effectively extracting useful stuff out of "the de facto format" ; it's not complete and did not aim to document as such, but it wasn't "did not even look", no. | [08:33] |
| mircea_popescu: | well obviously, i didn't mean it that hard. | [08:34] |
| mircea_popescu: | "didn't look", in the context of what "did look" has to mean for the needs of this convo' | [08:35] |
| diana_coman: | indeed; and it will get looked at and documented though it might take a bit of digging first. | [08:35] |
| mircea_popescu: | myeah | [08:36] |
| mircea_popescu: | diana_coman, http://bvt-trace.net/2020/01/re-pbrt/#comment-110 in other news | [10:55] |
| diana_coman: | aha, just saw it | [10:56] |
| hanbot: | mircea_popescu has kicked asciilifeform from #eulora (asciilifeform) << eh, shouldn't've banned 'im, he'll love it. | [12:23] |
| mircea_popescu: | da fuck do i care. | [12:33] |
| mircea_popescu: | schmuck spent his entire tenure whining about how he doesn't have a mpex account -- carefully omitting to mention HOW the fuck did he end up without. it never was "and then, in spite of seeing the item early, i did not have the common sense to buy a fiddy bucks account, and meanwhile i'm not worth the cost of one wholesale, boots included". | [12:36] |
| ossabot: | (trilema) 2019-09-07 mircea_popescu: the matter SIMPLY CAN NOT BE IGNORED : if back in 2017, ie the very month that article came out, joe bloe took out the 20-50k in debt he could and liquidated the 20-50k in assets that he could, converting it to bitcoin at a monthly average k, he'd be looking now at either 400k to 1mn in cold hard cash, or else something like 1-1.5mn worth of liquidated assets, if he sold during the peak. (and not AT the peak, for 1.76mn | [12:36] |
| mircea_popescu: | just, you know, magically, "didn't have one". not "fucktardedly eschewed buying the first and properly speaking only thing i should've". | [12:36] |
| diana_coman: | doesn't see any problem with anyone's love (+ or - as it may be) anyway | [12:37] |
| mircea_popescu: | simultaneously spent entire tenure taking some twisted sort of moronic pride in how he... doesn't play eulora | [12:37] |
| mircea_popescu: | let him therefore spend the rest of eternity whining about how "inexplicably" he can't now get one. | [12:37] |
| mircea_popescu: | whole fucking thing is eerily reminiscent of that pupkin character, that's what it recalls in my mind's eye : that apoteotic ending of the king of comedy, where they just keep repeating over and over, And now, ladies and gentlemen... the man we've all been waiting for... and waiting for. Would you welcome home please... television's brightest new star... The legendary, inspirat | [12:41] |
| mircea_popescu: | ional... the one and only king of comedy... Ladies and gentlemen, Rupert Pupkin! Rupert Pupkin, ladies and gentlemen! Let's hear it for Rupert Pupkin! Wonderful! Rupert Pupkin, ladies and gentlemen! Rupert Pupkin, ladies and gentlemen! Let's hear it for Rupert Pupkin! Wonderful! Rupert Pupkin, ladies and gentlemen!" | [12:41] |
| mircea_popescu: | doesn't particularly want to ~do~ anything. just wants to be, and ideally could mommy look at him while he's being ? | [12:42] |
| hanbot: | diana_coman not so much a problem as...means of feeding the self-defeating "i'm fine, it's other people that're nuts!!1" (or sure, i guess, ruper pupkin) machine. not of much consequence either way by now, though, i guess. | [12:48] |
| mircea_popescu: | the only advantage of the rupert pupkin machine is that it doesn't need food. a discussion of "feeding" in this context is akin to trying to figure out if 8 / 0 is larger or smaller than 7/ 0 | [12:49] |
| diana_coman: | hanbot: it feeds itself no matter what you do. | [12:50] |
| diana_coman: | as far as I know it, its own circles are its own for a reason; if it took your input in any meaningful way, it wouldn't have been what it is in the first place. | [12:52] |
| hanbot: | sure. sometimes one loses sight of established futility for the ghosts of what could've been. | [12:52] |
| hanbot: | shrugs | [12:52] |
