languages go to shit for two reasons. the main one is, elite being humble. the secondary one is, no nation. |

(anyway, lest the esl reader acquires the wrong impression from the logs - at issue is not that the thing was done, per se. at issue is HOW the thing is done. which is to say : shockingly unexpected, which requires a) a large body of work against which to expect pre-existend and b) a language strong enough to shock against that. these are plain impossible requisites in "reasonable" languages, and they can't be met by p |

mircea_popescu: to be clear, i won't recommend esperanto as a literary language. but will point out that it plays somewhat of the same role morse plays for 'hams', or sign language for the literate deaf. i.e. a ~shield against mainstream cultural poison~ |
10:25 |
mircea_popescu |
wrong kind of shield. |
10:25 |
asciilifeform |
lets you have a little 'usenet' going. for a spell. |
10:25 |
mircea_popescu |
corporate job is idem "a shield" for usian fucktards, like working "for the govtr" was a shield that still got germans hung and soviets spat on. |
10:26 |
mircea_popescu |
i suppose the greatest mysetery of life is that there are shields you want and shields you do not want. |
10:26 |
asciilifeform |
castle != jail |
10:26 |
asciilifeform |
(though a jail can be inside a castle, yes) |
10:26 |
mircea_popescu |
all castle contains a jail. |
10:26 |
mircea_popescu |
and for that matter versailles (which is how and why french died) was not a castle, but a jail. |

some shields may cost more than they are worth. but i argue that not-having-britney-spears-in-your-language is worth ~something~ culturally |
10:28 |
mircea_popescu |
nononon |
10:28 |
mircea_popescu |
not a matter of cost. |
10:28 |
asciilifeform |
just like not having had tumblr pheminism in a language yet, is a great cultural asset |
10:28 |
mircea_popescu |
some shields are simply not worth having. period. for any cost. they mostly cost "0" anyway. |
10:28 |
mircea_popescu |
asciilifeform not so. |

thing is, if something is alive inside an impenetrable bubble, it is not alive. |
10:40 |

the 'real programmerz' are not in such a bubble, in that you are interacting with them every time you flip the light switch or turn on the tap, or get into a '747' |

10:40 |
mircea_popescu |
and if you wish you can say the same re programmers, and i'll buy it |
10:41 |
mircea_popescu |
but it also illustrates just how strained the melted cheese is |
10:41 |
asciilifeform |
mircea_popescu: they aren't - as far as i can tell - talking |

asciilifeform |
'spartan speaks with his sword |
10:41 |
asciilifeform |
' |
10:41 |
mircea_popescu |
risky argument. |
10:41 |
asciilifeform |
because talking with the 'fresh grads' (much less the public at large) is increasingly a pearls/swine proposition |
10:41 |
mircea_popescu |
spartan may well speak with his sword, but this does not promise an easy translation. |

14:10 |
mircea_popescu |
let me formalize this for reader's benefit. |
14:10 |
mircea_popescu |
1. take a complex situation C about which propositions may be formed Pi which are decidably correct or false through a T(Px) function. |
14:12 |
mircea_popescu |
2. take a list L of actors Lj , who decide (D) on which P to rely, and are scored by function S(Lx), according to the impact of their reliance on false P (which is uncomputable at all points before running S) |
14:12 |
mircea_popescu |
3. create a set S of twobitidiots Sk, who put forth statements Q about various P, so that the actual T(Q(Px)) is normally distributed over the list S. |
14:13 |
mircea_popescu |
in this model, the fact that Sy displays any score on the basis of his past emitted Q is no proof of anything. |
14:14 |
mircea_popescu |
in particular no trust or crediblity may attach to that record, for the simple reason that THAT IS HIS FUCKING JOB. |
14:14 |
ascii_field |
'stopped clock' |
14:14 |
mircea_popescu |
the entire list S exists so that "credible" S's can appear so that selected Ls can be fucked over. |
14:14 |
ascii_field |
like our german ? |
14:14 |
mircea_popescu |
which one ? |
14:15 |
mircea_popescu |
in any case : i am not valuing nor even reading "opinions" of anon folk ie Qs. |
14:16 |
ascii_field |
mircea_popescu: the 'phuctor debunked' german |
14:16 |
mircea_popescu |
specifically because if one of these is not open to challenge, he is ipso definition an S. and anons are ipso definitio not open to challenges |
14:16 |
mircea_popescu |
ascii_field like the whole swathe of "bitcoin experts", and also like "cryptography experts" of the ilk of some nobody in particular running "socklpuppet.org" |
14:17 |
mircea_popescu |
anyway. this argument is both too complex to be readily "intuited" by the children and also its results are deeply inconvenient to their wants and expectations (mostly of playing the spy and generalsly speaking "mattering" in their own head), and so i don't expect the S process to go away. it's prolly going to be productive enough to become a mode of "culture" on the interwebs. |
14:19 |
mircea_popescu |
at the very margin, this discussion reduces to the discussion of al schwartz' lack of access to measuring processes, if you recall it. |
14:19 |

because yes, if science were "open to all comers" in this sense, it'd just get ddos'd into the shit by S's. |

so it's a living, best of luck. |
14:23 |

but derived from it, a decent pseudo-AI project would be to make a long list of propositions, sort them in a thousand or so lists (ie blogs) and "publish" "articles". |

oh, on a somewhat related note: the reason I even met Fare was because I suspected that he was friends with one of my assassin targets (turned out to be false intel) so I struck a conversation with him to confirm or deny my suspicion |

(i met a LOT of people this way) |

i had tracked one of my targets down and found him in the main assembly space, and was prepared to follow him out (as you cannot kill someone under the roof of an offical event) but then I saw Fare walk in and I didn't want him to see me following the guy, so I walked up to him instead, and in so doing, lost my actual target :/ |

23:58 |
mircea_popescu |
the ml process needs some reviewing. it's sort of grown organically to a point where it's troublematic. |
23:59 |
ben_vulpes |
say it again. |
23:59 |
mircea_popescu |
for one thing, most everyone but us has a stable and a testing list. |
23:59 |
mircea_popescu |
i can appreciate the heroism of "fuck you, it's all stable". but then that comes at a cost. |
23:59 |
mircea_popescu |
the more common cop out is "fuck you, it's all testing". |
23:59 |
mircea_popescu |
that stance may come with a cost to the ego. |
