(this is a significant problem. consider a model : there's what, ten-twenty millions of bernsteins, kanzure , fyr and what have you on one hand ; and only a hundred or so of us. even if we were to work a full 200 hour's week, if on average one needs 1k man-hours of constant whipping to redress into humanity, we encounter the following birthday paradox : either the whipping is undirected, in which case every tard gets 15 minut |
| 14:51 |
mircea_popescu |
es and nothing happens ; or else the whipping is directed, in which case we pick the 3-sigma cases and get 0.03% of 10mn ie 3k people who could be fixed in a few days each. |
| 14:51 |
asciilifeform |
bryan ( kanzure ) is in asciilifeform's meat l2 for many yrs, but imho remains a border case |
| 14:52 |
mircea_popescu |
now the problem with this is that the stupid beast ~quite deliberately~ (even if uncomprehended by the elements, subhuman as they are, composing that beast) presents them partially. so as to avoid you know, actual results, much like an octopus would touch a stove.) |
| 14:52 |
mircea_popescu |
asciilifeform hence the sigma comments. |
| 14:54 |
trinque |
g_l for example can absorb an astonishing amount of whipping with nary a budge. I don't even mean that as an insult. |
| 14:54 |
asciilifeform |
i have genuinely nfi re g_l , what he spends his time on, after seeing the film |

trinque i have no clear view of what he's doing, so i can't measure, so i wouldn't even call it that. |
| 15:00 |
mircea_popescu |
anyway, the in-character which is to say fictitious name for "the stupid beast presents them partially to avoid phase transitions" is that much-celebrated (in stupidistan) "freedom of choice", ie the batshit insane notion that the unknowing may be involved in decisions as of what to do with themselves. |
| 15:00 |
mircea_popescu |
ie http://trilema.com/the-practical-costs-of-hallucinated-freedom |
| 15:01 |
asciilifeform |
mircea_popescu: it #includes<> an even nuttier notion, that the unknowing can transform ~selves~ into the knowing, without external prod |
| 15:01 |
mircea_popescu |
heh. |

sorta whole point of apprenticeship ( and later, in moar decayed times, schools ) is to ~inflict~ this transformation |
| 15:05 |
mircea_popescu |
indeed. |
| 15:10 |
mircea_popescu |
heck, why not, if there can exist (as in principle can) individuals who need any arbitrary amount of whipping, there's no reason to elide the extreme case. maybe somewhere somehow there exists this jeddi that actually needs 0, is a natural. |
| 15:11 |
mircea_popescu |
can't say i've encountered that many ; and can say that from actual lived experience, the "thinks he's jeddi" heuristic is a fine indicator for "head so far up ass the net result of sufficient whipping will be soap", ie http://trilema.com/2015/the-anal-child/ |

jackdaniel so a major item of curiosity for me is how do you calculate the bounty values ? |
| 15:46 |
jackdaniel |
I work a bit with code. I asses how hard it will be to fix it, how beneficial fixing it will be and how much resources we have |
| 15:46 |
jackdaniel |
then I consult with guys on #clim if my assesments are okaish |
| 15:46 |
mircea_popescu |
let me put this question into the model of interest : |
| 15:47 |
mircea_popescu |
would having more money at your disposal put an inflationary pressure on bounty levels ? ie, for "same work" (admitting for a moment there's such a thing as work-needed scalar) more money ? conversely, encountering headwinds/making little progress over time/decelerating would deflate bounties ? |
| 15:49 |
jackdaniel |
it's hard to read what you write. could you rephrase? |
| 15:50 |
mircea_popescu |
let's try. so at the moment you have $1,429 for bounties ; let's say the average bounty pays 10 dollars per quanta of "computer work", however defined. |
| 15:50 |
mircea_popescu |
had you $1,429,500 for bounties, would the per-quanta payment increase ? maybe to 11 ? 20 ? 100 ? |
| 15:51 |
jackdaniel |
I don't know, I don't think so though |
| 15:52 |
mircea_popescu |
hm. are you familiar with bitcoin at all ? |
| 15:53 |
jackdaniel |
yes, a tiny bit |
| 15:54 |
jackdaniel |
sorry, I'm quite busy now. I've read the log – yes, bounties are arbitrary, or as someone nicely put it "pulled out of ass" by me |
| 15:55 |
mircea_popescu |
the question is, are you familiar with the mechanisms which render bitcoin unassailable by alt coins (such as detailed in http://trilema.com/2014/the-woes-of-altcoin-or-why-there-is-no-such-thing-as-cryptocurrencies/ ) ? because EXACTLY the same processes are at work tearing apart small independent efforts such as your own, and ultimately are the reason usg ended up as the sole employer in its domains. |

i'm not understanding the second half of that sentence |

asciilifeform doesn't support it because he doesn't like the outer case limits of the design, esp re speed. i am not supporting it because i do not have any faith whatsoever in its financial soundness. you aren't supporting it because hm. |
| 16:12 |
mircea_popescu |
i guess i never knew. why weren't you ? |
| 16:13 |
mircea_popescu |
(if you're interested by the literalism, "for merit" is one of two ways in which a case can be adjudicated. the other one is on form, such as through lack of standing, lack of jurisdiction, etcetera.) |
| 16:13 |
phf |
aah, now i get the whole thing |
| 16:16 |
asciilifeform |
mircea_popescu: 'outer case limit' is somewhat of an oversimplification : the thing fitsinhead so poorly, that to this day i am not fully certain why so abominably slow ( other than the abstract fact of 5-6 layers of complexity doing their impedance-mismatch thing together ) |

well, i had space for five words, what do you want from me. |

it's actually pretty small. 150k or so if you don't count the dependencies. i believe that the mcclim team has pulled a bunch of builtin compatability layers and replaced them with portable "community" versions i.e. closer-mop instead of builtin mop facility (metaobject protocol for dealing with CLOS classes), etc. |

first concrete step towards sane computing is a tsmr gentoo that is A) self contained B) infectious / replicates as described above C) uses CLIM for all graphics. |
| 17:22 |
gabriel_laddel_p |
all existing CLIM implementations have problems. it is an annoying, irritating, but utterly straightforwards process to fix any of the extant CLIM implementations |
| 17:22 |
gabriel_laddel_p |
this means that all of the Unix tooling can essentially be dumped in favor of lisp + CLIM. |
| 17:23 |
gabriel_laddel_p |
no emacs, but rather a CL editor & so forth. |
| 17:24 |
gabriel_laddel_p |
this is essentially what masamune is, admittedly in a ragged & impoverished form, right now, today. |
| 17:24 |
trinque |
and how does having a lisp userland atop a massive C kernel help? |
| 17:24 |
trinque |
understand that the kernel defines the ways in which userland shall interact with it, and thus shapes userland? |
| 17:24 |
gabriel_laddel_p |
trinque: because lisp/s-expressions/incremental compilation means that you don't have to make decisions about everything right away. |
| 17:25 |
gabriel_laddel_p |
an entire, sane lispm-like (which yes, ascii disagrees with) unix can be had, and then this can meet the hardware implementation "in the middle" |
| 17:26 |
gabriel_laddel_p |
specifically, when I say "meet in the middle", a fixed CLIM will run just fine on new tsmr hardware reverse engineered fpga lispm with a minimum amount of fuss |
| 17:27 |
gabriel_laddel_p |
it is unclear at this point what the hardware, real lispm implementation is going to look like & I have months of logs to catch up before I begin to even comment on this |
| 17:28 |
gabriel_laddel_p |
there are however, a number of issues, such as a how to get rid of floats & what to replace them with that can be safely engineered on the unix-not-even-lispm |
| 17:28 |
gabriel_laddel_p |
for example, are you familiar with the book "the end of error"? |

you know as well as i do that the reason your log lives on .log files is because all of you lot think you could, but none of you lot actually can make a sane log. that's what the random package a low effort search returned does, and that is what you get. same is true of all other items, either you found it at the walmart in the "diy" section or you don't have it. |

yuep that's what we spent $27 million on. browsing walmart. k |

kanzure dja have any idea how dumb you look going in with an attempt to impress by EXPENDITURE, and then on the flimsiest of examination appearing unable to explain WHAT you bought ? tell you what, the usg you seem so keen to emulate spent a trillion and similary "wait for plane catalog day". or alternatively, has some littoral cardboard models that can't float. |

the correct approach is, "see this great car ? and i only paid 50 bux for it". certainly not "oh, i spend 5 mn on cars and uhm, disregard the donkey" |
