13:29 thimbronion I keep trying to imagine the programmer's thoughts as he was writing the code to display negative rates.
13:29 thimbronion "What a chore. Never gonna happen."
13:30 asciilifeform thimbronion: all the moar lulzy if triggers bugola.
13:35 thimbronion asciilifeform: alternatively programmer could have been thinking "Wtf why is this in the spec? Time to sell..."
13:35 asciilifeform thimbronion: re this, see also .
13:35 snsabot (trilema) 2016-12-21 asciilifeform: when v. belenko flew his mig to jp, and gave it as a gift to usa, su army ended up installing 'belenko switches' in all combat aircraft, supposedly.
13:36 asciilifeform thimbronion: you'd be surprised at 'what's in the spec' for various things.

16:42 snsabot (ossasepia) 2020-03-25 trinque: in late december I sustained a severe concussion, and didn't bring it up, because the last person to get injured on the job was phf, who was summarily dismissed.
~ 27 minutes ~
17:10 asciilifeform meanwhile in mp lulz : open admission of 'always hated the lot of you, only tolerated while ego was properly stroked'
17:11 trinque I don't agree with that interpretation.
17:12 trinque in retrospect resources could've been allocated better.
17:12 trinque g_l could've helped push cuntoo, etc etc
17:13 trinque the "because ego" explanation is easy, in that it obviously and unavoidably applies to us all.
17:13 trinque and it's also tacitly understood to be a lie for us all, hence
17:13 trinque *hence will always sound damning.
17:17 asciilifeform trinque: i expected you might disagree.
17:19 asciilifeform trinque: he's right, incidentally, in re the mirror image of this. e.g. asciilifeform put up with mp's open hatred of the folx who, unlike him, know how to build with own hands. and for far too long, and for ultimately 0 gain.
17:23 asciilifeform ftr i do not believe for a moment in 'mp is outta biz'. he's very much in biz, working double time to poison all of the remaining wells, set folx against one another, make sure the earth properly salted so that republic (the only kind possible -- the kind w/out mp, the kind 'with' is called a reich) is properly down, and his theses 'properly confirmed'
17:23 asciilifeform and ftr diana_coman is his staybehind agent in this effort.
17:23 asciilifeform she will happily assign to you, trinque , 'plans to make plans to make plans' if you bite the hook.
17:24 trinque he even admits in that thread he's frustrated as piss. why not take him at his word.
17:24 asciilifeform i very much believe that he is frustrated. but imho he aint being straight re the reasons.
17:25 trinque I think he's frustrated because there isn't a chair on earth fit for him, and I wager that comes with things I can't even model.
17:26 trinque and this isn't some kind of subservient plea out of me. I just imagine it's hell.
17:26 asciilifeform napoleon , iirc, also ended up very frustrated.
17:27 trinque and ftr I have never found diana_coman other than earnest as it gets.
17:28 asciilifeform imho she's an earnest bureaucrat. i.e. aggressive mediocrity
17:29 trinque entitled to your ratings as anyone.
17:29 asciilifeform consider -- w/out any public hints of having experience in e.g. running +ev biz, proposes to teach others.
17:30 asciilifeform ( mega-coin 'kept woman' income from mp != '+ev biz' )
17:30 trinque eh, this is not a topic I wish to carry further.
17:30 * asciilifeform not surprised
17:30 trinque the folks with whom I'm keeping contact, I keep contact for reasons good enough for me.
17:31 asciilifeform trinque: i don't propose to tell trinque 'them -- contact , them -- do not'
17:33 asciilifeform but will openly put here ftr what i think . which is, to take 'biz lessons' from diana_coman is entirely same thing as to take medical schooling from a 12yo whose 'education' consists of having cut open a stray dog.
17:34 trinque in either case, I am not.
17:34 trinque and sure, it's your channel.
~ 24 minutes ~
17:59 asciilifeform trinque: incidentally, seen this yet ?
18:00 asciilifeform imho fascinating, to watch a retired racketeer try to 'do biz' w/ folx whom he cannot intimidate, and will remember only 'recall the nut the other day'
18:06 shinohai ^ a++ link there asciilifeform, was indeed a lulzy read.
18:06 asciilifeform shinohai: the man himself linked from own comments.
18:07 asciilifeform imho very reminiscent of earlier threads w/ graphics artists
18:07 asciilifeform 'hello, here is my cock, who here will suck it and pay for the privilege' 'didja escape from nuthouse?' 'OBEY MOTHERFUCKERS' 'mno' 'aite, what an ignominious death you have died!' etc
18:08 thimbronion asciilifeform: do you have some search result alerts setup for trilema?
18:08 asciilifeform thimbronion: nope
18:09 asciilifeform thimbronion: i do occasionally read comments on various www (even mp's) tho
18:13 shinohai >tfw gets mad when ppl tell him to f=go fuck himself on gofuckyourself.com
