08:08 mircea_popescu http://btcbase.org/log/2017-12-09#1749146 << here's something perhaps of interest re all that : loper-os beat btcbase for referrals for the first time in history (and harshly, 2:1 sorta thing) this month.
08:08 a111 Logged on 2017-12-09 22:55 asciilifeform: does it ? i dun recall last time e.g. trilema was '#1 on tardcombinator'
08:08 mircea_popescu so we could say the ycombined parameciums are moving, knocking about the walls of the petri dish. nevertheless, they don't feel at liberty to derp in comments there like they do on your site -- notwithstanding the bar to comment on loper-os is actually too high what with the google captcha thing.

08:09 mircea_popescu so you might actually be right, i'm scary (or at least, scary-er).
08:10 mircea_popescu the ~other~ explanation, however, might well be that i don't write on topics about which they're trained to think they have an oppinion. it's easy to forget the parameciums are not actually people, and to imagine human process impels them ; this isn't however the case, they just go where they were trained to go and do what they were trained to do, no more.

08:10 BingoBoingo <asciilifeform> err << Tis airport handle made for device that can't be trusted with bouncer credential, nothing important may come out of there, merely fresh annecdotes from safari
08:11 mircea_popescu and consequently one continuously runs the risk of having produced an inadvertent bike shed, because according to inscrutable alien logics the aliens will land and disrupt rock concerts but not country music concerts ; or vice-versa. cuz the aliens think they can rock or whatever.
08:11 BingoBoingo <danielpbarron> even when i paid almost 100 USD to ship to that UK guy i still profited quite well for the effort << If you want to drop some off personally in montevideo, you will likely avoid customs charges.
08:12 mircea_popescu "oh, are you writing about $item ? this is in my bayesian list, here's five things i selected from the database of things to be selected when this $item is mentioned! #metoo".
08:12 mircea_popescu meanwhile for all values of $item not in empire_db... silence.
08:13 BingoBoingo Customs when I arrived worked out as so: 1. See declarations paper work outside duty free shop exit in front of baggage claim 2. Fill out for for networking gear. 3. Wheel bags to customs gate around corner, holding paper in hand 4. Get waved through into Uruguay in name of speed
08:13 BingoBoingo This process may not hold when tourism season ends
08:14 mircea_popescu it'll hold, dude. i went illegalyl from mexico into guatemala for literal lack of anyone to give a shit.

10:41 asciilifeform http://btcbase.org/log/2017-12-10#1749266 << asciilifeform has been chewing on this conundrum for a while. the inevitable pill is a minimal ( see also e.g. http://btcbase.org/log/2017-11-12#1736844 ) but reasonable microscopic interpreter ( likely schemelike ) in asm; and from it, to climb back up.

I built i386 (which is the NetBSD name for x86, even though it does not support i386 CPUs any longer) and sun3. The reason I choose them is that they represent two extremes of architectures — sun3 is a hardware platform that was obsolete already in the mid-nineties, so software size "should not" increase for it unless new functionality is added, while the
14:23 asciilifeform i386 hardware is still used, and it has got more features, bigger caches etc., during this time, which may increase code size.'

19:29 danielpbarron http://btcbase.org/log/2017-11-20#1741325 << obvious false church. Bible says women are to remain silent in there
19:29 a111 Logged on 2017-11-20 17:03 mircea_popescu: in other news, ended up in local church after walk this morning. had to leave once priest showed up and the womenz starting "singing" an hymn
19:29 mircea_popescu catholics have female choirs, but much more musical than this.
19:30 mircea_popescu weirdo neoprotestant garbage, "find teh jaysus within" and "participate" negrochurch nonsense.
19:30 danielpbarron catholicism is a false religion for many other reasons besides letting women speak in church
19:30 mircea_popescu sure. tho of interest to me is the cultural tradition. like skateboarding or w/e.
19:31 danielpbarron any church that let's strangers walk into the service is at question in the first place, on the grounds that the Bible says you shouldn't pray in public
19:31 mircea_popescu http://btcbase.org/log/2017-12-10#1749293 << isn't it fucking interesting how these keep happenhing ?!

19:32 mircea_popescu danielpbarron maybe they're sub-praying.
