04:08 mats i suppose the one interesting thing from the confirmation hearing is the stated intention to put the National Guard and various branch Reserve components in a state of readiness as it was in the decade following 9/11
04:16 mats which makes sense, they've proven their effectiveness especially as DoD's operational tempo continued to go up in those years
04:21 mats and even with the augmentation from reserves, tens (if not hundreds) of thousands of folks saw 'stop-loss' orders, that is, 'fuck you, this 6/9/12 month deployment is actually getting extended until further notice because needs of the army'

09:21 mircea_popescu ben_vulpes i have words from mp's free critique services : 1. too big font, too much whitespace => way too few words in right column ; 2. single utility column => too much scrolling to get articles ; 3 no good structuring of history (and i dun care about your categories enough to want them listed) ; 4. bad idea to put whole article in archive listing, because then you have to paginate the months which defeats the whole point
09:21 mircea_popescu of having an array (which is what "archive" means, it's not a fucking list)
09:23 mircea_popescu http://cascadianhacker.com/2016/02 << check out your pagination (i'd show you exactly where but there's no way to select position in text ; scroll down to first place where there's a hash)

09:39 mircea_popescu mats yeah but if trump withdraws em it's basically a two week vacation.
09:45 mircea_popescu and in other things you had nfi about, "Northern Light Group, LLC is a company specializing in strategic research portals, enterprise search technology, and text analytics solutions."
09:58 mircea_popescu and in other lulz : the news on china today is : the guardian pretending like china's telling trump what's what ; fox news pretending like china's telling trump what's what ; abc online sanely representing the situation ; cnn pretending like china's telling trump what's what ; nbcnews pretending like china's telling trump what's what ; washington post pretending like china's telling trump what's what in new words rather than
09:58 mircea_popescu by copy/paste like everyone else AND SO FOLLOWING.
09:58 mircea_popescu meanwhile "trump is with putin". why, because he gets in the way of the fake news being with china ?
09:59 mircea_popescu i mean i get it, everyone agrees the us is a colony now, but from that it doesn't exactly follow which bits fall into which spheres of influence does it.

10:04 mircea_popescu This is unlike any inauguration we’ve seen,” said Ben Wikler, Washington director of the progressive group MoveOn.org. “We’ve never seen a counter-inauguration that dwarfs the crowd at the inauguration itself.

10:11 mircea_popescu or no wait, actually ... fourth.
10:17 mircea_popescu "Regardless of how you view Trump and his positions, his election has led to a deep, deep sense of uncertainty and that will cast a long shadow over Davos," said Jean-Marie Guehenno, CEO of International Crisis Group, a conflict resolution think-tank.

11:56 mircea_popescu well logically, wouldn't you go hold your inauguration in either a) the state where you got the highest % or else b) in the state where hillary got the greatest margin below what she expected ? say something like "there's some people in this country who think they're better than everyone else, and i don't want to hang out with them"
11:56 mircea_popescu maybe send pence's secretary to send your regards to the washington thing and thatssat.
11:56 mircea_popescu why even fucking entertain a bad restaurant where the waitresses (with singer-songwriter aspirations) and busboys (rappers!) didn't even vote for you ?
11:57 mircea_popescu fuck you washington dc, i get 4% of the vote you get 96% income slashed off.
~ 15 minutes ~
12:12 mircea_popescu so as per a) it'd be west virginia (dude got 68.63% o.o) or else the 3rd district of nebraska. as per b) i guess pennsylvania. hold it in harrisburg ftw.
12:16 mircea_popescu in any case the DC must be strangled, wtf is this, 90% hillary ? really ? that's the deep reason for all the fake news, all the unemployable idjits working as "staffers" and moonlighting as "journalists".
12:17 mircea_popescu coupla hundred thousand dorks who imagine dc is their own personal github, to write "codes of conduct" for and come up with "restricitve political stances" and whatnot.
12:22 asciilifeform mircea_popescu: it was ~90% obummer, iirc, also
12:23 mircea_popescu yeah well, look at the results, they go 60/40 to 40/60. the 90/4 thing is an outlier, evidently it'll ahve to be crushed.
12:23 asciilifeform not for the reason mircea_popescu suspected tho. being a city, in usa, it is mostly black, and they vote the democrat ticket.
12:23 asciilifeform bmore, et al, similar.
12:23 mircea_popescu the ~only way a "professional" bureaucracy may survive is if it has no particular strong preference.
12:24 mircea_popescu asciilifeform nobody in the 250k dc residents who vote there are slaves, gtfo. it's 100% middle class jewish with unwarranted aspirations and a drug habit.
12:24 mircea_popescu the pink collars vote in maryland or wherever.
12:25 asciilifeform they don't operate by voting, no. they bus the inner city professional sad sacks 'helpfully' to the polls, and let'em know for whom to vote.
12:25 asciilifeform y'know, just like in 1860s with irish.
12:25 mircea_popescu there is some substance to what you say in the sense that it gains like 10k per year.
12:26 asciilifeform fwiw the practice is conspicuous enough to be visible to the naked eye.
12:26 mircea_popescu but it was under 50% white in 2011 for the first time, mind.
12:26 asciilifeform (there are ads everywhere re 'we will help you get to the polls!' etc)
12:27 asciilifeform mircea_popescu: bureaucrat caste swelled under obummer, while the train system declined. so a decision was made to clear out some 'habitable' zones for'em in dc.
12:27 mircea_popescu myeah
12:27 asciilifeform this led to cries of 'oh noez, racists retaking their historic motherland from diversefolx' etc.
12:29 mircea_popescu in other lulz, "A Robert Emery 2007 report found that about one-third of Washington residents are functionally illiterate, compared to a national rate of about one in five."
12:29 mircea_popescu stalin would not be impressed.
12:29 asciilifeform this btw is very low bar. it means: they cannot read even street sign.
12:30 asciilifeform nor fill out own welfare form.
12:30 mircea_popescu aha.
12:31 mircea_popescu and it also hides the fact that half of those under 30 aren't qualified to be dressed in public under the "one in three" all ages bs.
12:31 asciilifeform dunno, under 30 the rotgut hasn't kicked in yet.
12:31 asciilifeform so maybe slightly less vegetable overall.
12:32 mircea_popescu nope.
12:33 mircea_popescu o look, the wikipedia article on "white flight" manages to somehow be all about "environmental racism" and other bullshit.
12:36 phf the whole point of "no child left" is to skew literacy rates through standardized multiple choice. "by the end of this course you will recognize the words dog, cat and food. this will also be in the test"
12:36 mircea_popescu yes, but it also produces a 90% majority of people who nevertheless can't "influence the elections"
12:38 asciilifeform phf: dog training for people, aha.
12:38 mircea_popescu somehow the idiocy of self-hat-stealing is never evident. and it's not just a matter of politics. single-wife marriages are generally exercises in "trying to keep the woman as stupid as possible". why, exactly ? not like she's not your woman, if you make her dumb who the fuck is going to defend you when you run into a guy with a dozen women and a fleet of battleships ?
12:38 mircea_popescu you don't fucking want to gain approval in the herd at the cost of diminishing herd quality. who the fuck runs a herd like this!
12:39 asciilifeform folx who think their 'mandate of heaven' is a permanent fixture of the universe.
12:39 asciilifeform that's who.
12:39 mircea_popescu somehow exactly nobody in the idiocratic party stood up at the convention and said "the reason we couldn't get our girl elected is that for 30 years while we had the resources, we squandered them on sucking black dick instead of spending them on whips for the same blacks"
12:39 asciilifeform notion is that it 'could not possibly matter' whether half of usa can or cannot read, because it isn't as if chimpanzees will learn to make jets.
12:39 mircea_popescu it has to be mp in #trilema, there's nobody among all those according-to-them important thinkers to have added these twos together.
12:40 mircea_popescu asciilifeform the bankruptcy of this approach would be evident to anyone functionally literate. or for that matter vaguely numerate.
12:41 asciilifeform recall the old observation about how 'communism must expand and destroy healthy tissue, or die' ?
12:41 mircea_popescu same thing with fucking apple, "we'll make tools that make the users dumb but happy". really ? and who will defend you, when the guys who made their users smart but uncomfortable come seeking your head ?
12:41 mircea_popescu dude they don't have to be stupid just because they're stupid.
12:41 asciilifeform europe was (theoretical) threat, so now it will be converted into exact copy of usa.
12:41 asciilifeform with ~50% violently illiterate halfwits, etc.
12:41 asciilifeform and real estate racket in the now-so 'valuable' exclusion zones.
12:42 mircea_popescu i very much doubt it needed any help with that ; by churchill's time england was entirely that already. started in manchester cca 1800s.
12:42 mircea_popescu at a time the usian methodists etc were trying hard to resist that tide all over east coast mill towns
12:42 mircea_popescu what with all the nunneries.
12:43 mircea_popescu phf it's interesting how un-alphabetic their approach is, also. "you will learn these three hieroglyphs ; and shame on mp for using longer words than 4 letters, it's not really writing when you do that!"
12:44 phf "multiple choice" is sop for everything here
12:45 mircea_popescu i can 60% a 4-choice test on any topic in klingon.
12:45 mircea_popescu so can most everyone.
12:45 mircea_popescu worst fucking cypher ever.
12:46 asciilifeform mircea_popescu: at one point they tried to abolish the obviously-comical 'multiple choice', in favour of... worse thing, can you picture:
12:46 asciilifeform machine-scored freeform essay !
12:46 asciilifeform (i shit thee not)
12:46 mircea_popescu actually (evidently nobodyu's done this, because hurr, experts, hurr, cryptographers, hurr durr) but it would be amusing to run simple word length averaging on random selection of multiple choice tests, see how often you can crack it with no other measure
12:47 mircea_popescu "we created ai that can pass any college exam. it... counts letters."
12:47 asciilifeform aaactually
12:47 asciilifeform this was done for the old entrance exam ('sat') in 1990s, and turned into a 'THEY dun want YOU to KNOW!!111' b00k, and fixed.
12:47 mircea_popescu heh
12:47 mircea_popescu i take the nobody back then. impressive enough.
12:48 asciilifeform in the old dayz, there was a somewhat more 'turkish' system in usa, when the snake had not yet shed its vestigial legs, and 'merit' still had to be faked into existence for the children of the anointed.
12:48 asciilifeform so the exams had 'magic tricks' built in, like this.
12:49 asciilifeform then -- fixed, because nobody gave any longer half a shit about exams.
12:49 asciilifeform 'holistic', see, admissions, nao.
12:49 mircea_popescu holy sticks.
12:52 asciilifeform 3 types of meatstock are bred for the college racket in usa: the slum bunnies ('diversity admit', they bring in usg payola), the eloi (actual future mandarins, small numbers, they zuckerberg around, you will find'em on rowboats, yachts), and the peasants (most of the chumpers. their purpose is to service nondischargeable debt for the rest of their natural lives.)
12:54 phf missing the quarterbackers from your list
12:54 asciilifeform where i went, they were mostly in first category.
12:54 mircea_popescu hey, for as long as the fathers of peasants buy into the nonsense dissected in http://trilema.com/2014/a-practical-exercise-for-people-who-cant-afford-airfare/#selection-89.0-93.622 that arrangement is sustainable, i guess.
12:54 mircea_popescu phf i was thinking, wtf, college for any other purpose than slut magnet ? where's he live.
12:55 asciilifeform mircea_popescu: they fall into the 3rd category -- they exist so that male chumper has TWO sets of nondischargeable loan to service, vs 1.
12:55 mircea_popescu us college exists principally to make young women comfortable with being naked in public and such basics, as far as anyone can tell.
12:56 mircea_popescu nudist beaches would do ~same service, but whatevs.
12:56 asciilifeform i am looking at this farm through the lens of the farmer, rather than the cow.
12:56 phf well, umd campus is large, and tech buildings are, as is usually the case, are in the remote corner. you have to track all the way past the student center, to the other side, where poliscy and sociology are
12:56 asciilifeform to the cow -- yes, farm exists to supply tasty snacks and warm place to moo.
12:56 mircea_popescu and "communications" and "arts" and "multimedia" and "drama" and the list goes on
12:56 mircea_popescu wtf is communications anyway.
12:56 asciilifeform mircea_popescu: phf is quite right, the place was astonishingly physically segregated
12:57 asciilifeform almost like 2 separate unis.
12:57 asciilifeform mircea_popescu: intro to journawhoring
12:57 phf right, there's a very distinct continuum, with compsci building on one end and rhsmith of business on the other
12:57 mircea_popescu label entirely bereft of any meaning, it's like going to cooking school called "alchemy"
12:58 mircea_popescu and the ~only "media" they study in this "multimedia" is youtube shorts.
12:58 mircea_popescu which are worse than ads ffs.
12:59 phf actually, this is pretty hilarious. because you can walk a reasonably straight line and get: compsci, electric engineering, chemistry, math, student center, political science, cultural studies, arts, business buildings in that order
12:59 mircea_popescu and where's the best parties ?
13:00 phf left of the line
13:00 mircea_popescu immediately outside campus ?
13:00 pete_dushenski mircea_popescu: yup, ready to rock in 60 mins for the auction.
13:00 mircea_popescu pete_dushenski nice, your stuff is all laid out for you.
13:01 pete_dushenski cool thx
13:02 phf left of the line it runs on campus housing, the three bars where everyone gets shitface and then sororities (i suspect fraternities are also there, but no idea)
13:02 * pete_dushenski is such a noob at eulora...
13:02 phf so yeah, it's immediately outside campus
13:05 mircea_popescu is the "charitable" pretense that was going on in the 90s still going strong or is it starting to go away ?
13:06 phf "charitable" pretense?
13:09 ben_vulpes and in other ai herpderps: https://www.inverse.com/article/26054-google-home-bots-falling-in-love-on-twitch-is-the-best-romance-of-2017
13:09 ben_vulpes mircea_popescu: ack
13:09 mircea_popescu you know, sororities supposedly existed not to get the members deflowered but to "service the community"
13:10 mircea_popescu so it kept pushing teenage ditzes into old people's homes and whatnot.
13:11 phf i'm pretty sure that whole angle is never going away, at least it was as strong while i was there. one sort of complements the other.
13:11 pete_dushenski http://www.tinhouse.com/blog/45211/ask-a-librarian-whats-the-strangest-thing-youve-found-in-a-library-book.html << heh, can BingoBoingo top a whole cooked shrimp ?
13:12 mircea_popescu at some point in the 60s/70s it was mostly about personal achievement
13:12 mircea_popescu pete_dushenski well there is that nice video of the girl sticking dildos inside etc
13:17 mircea_popescu anyway, this shift from "spend your free time getting better and let the others acquire that as best they can" to "spend your free time giving yourself for free and forget improvement" is very much the reason america even needs to be made great again. r&d ended up cut out of the loop as it were ; who wants the time of some dork "as she is".
13:18 mircea_popescu "somebody who has no other options, evidently" "oh yeah, and HOW did they end up not having other options ?" "ikr! SOCIALISM FOREVAR!!1"
13:18 phf umd is a public school, there's not necessarily "tradition of excellence" when it comes sororities/fraternities. it's the least common denominator herding kind of thing, with corresponding activities
13:18 mircea_popescu but in the late 60s there was :)
13:19 phf i have two or three friends who were proud of their ivy fraternities, and i checked, umd had a chapter for one of them, stopped qualifying sometime in the 80s
13:19 phf other two would never even consider
13:21 phf so it's a divergent process, you have mediocrity taking over, while excellence retreating
13:25 mircea_popescu aha.
13:25 mircea_popescu retreating where exactly is an open question, but sure.
13:29 phf i want to believe that there's a dusty attic somewhere on upenn campus, grandfathered in of course, with a library and a secret liquor store, where boys wearing ascots meet to discuss their progress at becoming men
13:29 mircea_popescu this somewhat in the vein of "i want to believe these eggs weren't actually shat by the dumbest thing on the farm."
~ 19 minutes ~
13:49 phf actually funniest "charitable" pretense is some years ago kate michaels raising money for underprivileged kids so that they can play polo. every time i remember it i crack up
13:51 mircea_popescu cargo cultism all the way.
13:53 pete_dushenski mircea_popescu: where does the eulora client hide the in-game logs ?
13:53 mircea_popescu pete_dushenski $home/.Eulora/logs/
13:54 pete_dushenski cheers
13:56 pete_dushenski another dumb q : the auction convo just happens in the 'auction' tab, yes ?
13:56 mircea_popescu no.
13:56 mircea_popescu come to the town up teh hill
13:56 mircea_popescu yer supposed to lay out the merchandize and so forth
13:57 pete_dushenski uhh hm.
13:59 mircea_popescu wouldja join #eulora eh.
13:59 mircea_popescu pete_dushenski ^
14:05 Framedragger unrelated to anything, just a nice writeup by djb about his conference trip to st petersburg: http://cr.yp.to/conferences/russia.html
14:06 Framedragger " The phone rang shortly after I drifted off. No more jet lag; I jumped out of bed and picked up the phone. Now I'll find out who's been calling, I thought. ``Would you like beautiful Russian sex girl?'' a woman asked. ``No, thank you,'' I said. Couldn't you just hand out forms at the front desk? I thought. I went back to sleep. "
14:07 mircea_popescu who doesn't want beautiful russian sex girls ;/
14:08 phf the kind of people who think that the only better way to say no to a beautiful russian sex girl is to do it over a form
14:08 mircea_popescu for srs.
14:08 mircea_popescu YOU DONT EVEN HAVE TO FUCK HER
14:09 Framedragger that's a good point. why not a good late night chat with beautiful russian girl.
14:09 mircea_popescu i certainly spent way more time chatting with whores than fucking them. no regrets.
14:10 Framedragger another film recommendation by association - documentary: "whore's glory" - by one glawogger (who died from malaria or somesuch while filming in liberia or somewheresuch), a bunch of interviews with whores in bangladesh, thailand etc
14:10 Framedragger nice rapport, nice camera work.
14:11 mircea_popescu well an interview may be too formal, but yeh
14:11 Framedragger (it's more like them just talking in the film, i must say it is really a nice watch)
14:12 Framedragger some of his films are available as media download on archive.org iirc

17:24 indiancandy no one asked u sir
17:24 indiancandy kol

17:26 asciilifeform 'Even in March 2016, when a full IT modernization had already started (see below), Obama said that the pop-culture depiction of presidential-grade technology and the real world are far apart: movies and TV shows "make it appear as if I’m in the [Situation] room and moving things.

17:26 asciilifeform ng to get a connection."'
17:26 shinohai One girl I know on xhamster has a regular that plops down 1000 tokens at a time for her to print out pics of him and piss on them.
17:26 shinohai had to help her set up a goddamned printer.
17:26 ben_vulpes how much does a token cost?
17:27 indiancandy not sure
17:27 mircea_popescu lmao
17:27 indiancandy 500 is 45pound
17:27 indiancandy is xhamster good
17:27 indiancandy i might join
17:28 shinohai 1000 tokens is roughly $100
17:28 mircea_popescu actually at 100 bux or whatever this isn't the worst way to get at people. have woman print dude's pic, take a shit on it, then keep rickrolling him with the video.
17:28 mircea_popescu cost of a half-decent meal.
17:29 indiancandy idont doo insertion

17:29 indiancandy not bad
17:29 shinohai The only old part for me was translating filthy messages from English to Spanish and back again
17:29 mircea_popescu indiancandy wouldn't you be better off if you simply went to every house in london, knocked on door, asked them if they want to move you in the closet and use you sexually for a coupla grand a month ?
17:30 mircea_popescu you could call it "au pire"

17:30 mircea_popescu you don't eat beef, don't take the cock, what do you do, play wow all day ?
17:31 mircea_popescu if you shot a guy they'd put you away, in ~the same conditions, for free. why even hussle, just go shoot a neighbour and be done.
17:33 indiancandy i know im weird

17:36 * mircea_popescu looks... social media bots handled 41k messages this week.
17:36 shinohai Any mixture of that
17:36 mircea_popescu shinohai sounds like a consultancy biz right there.
17:36 asciilifeform 'President Obama talks on the phone with president Petro Poroshenko of Ukraine about the Malaysia Airlines plane crash in eastern Ukraine, July 17, 2014. Here we see the new phone in gray, and as Obama's finger is covering the red light, and the green light is off, it seems a secure call.'
17:37 shinohai Yeah I think the universe has been trying to tell me to work with camwhores ever since I found trilema
17:37 mircea_popescu there's worse bunnies.
17:38 shinohai I'd really like to have a few nice girls for more long-term profitable relationships. I hate the one-off emails.
17:38 mircea_popescu that's where the problems begin.
17:39 shinohai I still do work for Paula sometimes, she's great to work with.
17:39 mircea_popescu postmodern age === age of insanity. average individual is incapable of either forming or maintaining relationships much like a decerebrated pigeon is incapable of building a nest.

17:46 indiancandy is it how
17:46 indiancandy teach me o wise one
17:48 shinohai What's my end if I turn you into a successful findom queen? I mean, that's quite a lucrative gig I'd just be turning over ....
17:48 mircea_popescu anyway, there's definitely a living in... well, pimping the girls, i suppose. most cam talent is utterly incapable of about half the stuff it has to do and entirely unmotivated to do the rest. if you do for them what shop management does for mcdonalds ewelets a la http://trilema.com/2013/compliance/ you can in principle increase their income 10 to 100 and eat half to two thirds of that.
