aha. well a lot of the options on the page atm are just an attempt to offer...more options to folks, lol. typically when i have the missing article problem with trilema it's along the lines of "what was that piece about korea, there was some history in it and a picture, and it was after 2015". not exactly an exhaustive list of checked parameters |

BingoBoingo the problem with books in a library isn't even that terrifying, seeing how they usually pick a topic. trilema article picks like a dozen, ikt's all about the interlinks. |
| 12:32 |
mircea_popescu |
(incidentally, the argument may be brought that dewey was a terrible cost upon human culture and ~the reason us never amounted to anything : the tendency to pick a topic is not unlike the tendency to pick a gender. "i can't think now, since i'm a girl" sorta bs.) |
| 12:32 |
BingoBoingo |
Right, but the insanity gets worse with the Library of congress system |
| 12:33 |
mircea_popescu |
it does. |
| 12:34 |
BingoBoingo |
And then there's OCLC which ends any attempt at sense and soley exists to keep catgenders employed |
| 12:35 |
mircea_popescu |
in any event hanbot 's attempt actually suggests an approach to quantifying the "That the republic readily exceeds the literate production of the combine of "modern democracies" should be unsurprising ; that they sorry shelters of the stunted ever manage to reach its quality is altogether dubious." claim. |
| 12:35 |
mircea_popescu |
just write out the exhaustive topiclist per item and then count links. |

the data model of period emacs painfully reminds one of original eulora. |

what period. emacs today ( genuine emacs, that is ) worx exactly same as 18 |

discussion is what's under the hood not how the gui feels. |

that's because you don't look under the hood |

mebbe because it actually works |
| 17:50 |

i don't know if you've spent any significant amount of time with it, but i literally got tricked into installing xemacs first (cause x means it's gui yes?? 97 me) |

the gui focus of their endless flamewars was dumb and not particularily flattering, netiehr for the gabriel/jwz side nor for the rms+retarded eurobois side |

but i then used it for a years, and learned elisp with it, and they were clearly making changes to elisp to make it not suck |

yea the other 3 asciilifeforms prolly looked, ate nagant |
| 17:54 |

anyway, 1990s period /me "emacs is fucked, use vi, at least it's shorter and doesn't do anything" very much related to all this. |
| 17:54 |

it also helps that i dun actually ~like~ emacs. i use it 'через нехочу' |

asciilifeform; first class characters like in common lisp for one, proper defstruct implementation, also they clarified significantly the buffer structure |

it's like that mircea_popescu article re running dishwasher from tank water |

mircea_popescu: to be fair both xemacs and emacs of that vintage are the height of readable elegance, compared to emacs of any later period |

so whatever lucid did on top of emacs code was probably an improvement |

mircea_popescu |
pick one ? |
| 18:03 |
phf |
actually i'm not sure i can, it's been a while since i've seen xemacs internals (i.e. >10 years). the point i was trying to make is that emacs ascii is talking about is a wholy different beats from the 1990s items, which were at the very least not cancerous |
| 18:04 |
mircea_popescu |
ah. i dunno, i guess not cancerous in the "but i got id saying im female" sense ; but very much had the clap. |
| 18:04 |

this is tempting me to excavate ancient emacses.. |

| 18:05 |
phf |
so emacs had some architecture, lucid took that architecture and tried making it more of a lisp machine (i.e. better foundation for writing elisp applications), then they tried pulling google.vs.linus and failed |
| 18:05 |

and rms saw ~no value in supporting x, especially if that was going to break any more of the thoroughly broken bag of fractures they were tending as emacs 18 |

phf also, the split didn't happen around 18.59, it happened around whatever the fuck it was, 18.10. there was a period when both lucid and fsf were releasing "newer" minor versions, skipping the other's. |

anyway, i suspect this was at the time the true problem : jwz wanted to unicode the japanese way and rms didn't even understand what's being discussed (which -- major fucking failure for the role, incidentally). |

phf which is the fucking problem with the sort of mind. by avoiding to correctly order output (ie, most significant byte first!!) and ESPECIALLY by failing to correctly filter output (least controversial part is filtered, least copacetic part is passed, NOT the other way around!!!) is what mires technical discussions altogether. |

i think somehow lisp symbols tie into this, i'd call it sanskrit thinking, because you also see that a lot in sanskrit. let's attach as much meaning to this symbol as we possibly can, but when we speak the correct meaning will be communicated because the other person is also a vedic god |

| 20:17 |
mircea_popescu |
asciilifeform the doctrine that "alternative interpretations fall off as the tree is built" has two major weaknesses : a) you'd be surprised how often there's an unexpected fault in the dielectric and b) you'd be surprised how often people get caught in emo insanity. |
| 20:17 |
asciilifeform |
plox to expand? |
| 20:17 |
mircea_popescu |
let's formalize. |
| 20:19 |
mircea_popescu |
suppose you have a set of symbols S1..Sn each with meanings Mij, i in n j in k. suppose you have a grammar G which has one function : if adding element Sx to a string made of q S, it permits you to discern which Sij are thereby invalidated. |
| 20:19 |
mircea_popescu |
the interpretative theory (T) states that for all possible strings there is at most one M per present S. those which have exactly 1 for all S are called well formed ; the rest malformed. |
| 20:20 |
mircea_popescu |
the PROBLEM with this constructive view of hermeneutics is that a) often G fails in its function and that b) just as often people fail to correctly apply it, impredictably and unreasonably. |
| 20:20 |
mircea_popescu |
"cultural management" discussed above is in this model the curation of permissible M overload on given Sn and the construction of G such that T is maintained. |
| 20:23 |
mircea_popescu |
a very strong ideal property of this is given in http://trilema.com/2014/the-romanian-language-for-other-people/#selection-245.1-238.5 ; which is a large part of the problem and also serves as illustration -- who the fuck knew that random whore story from 2014 is actually an expose on generative grammar. |
