00:00 mircea_popescu action flicks. no, i don't watch action flicks.
00:00 mircea_popescu Whereas historically a maliciously stupid idea might be contained by geography and manage to make one village suffer while its neighboring town dismissed it, the Internet allows the maliciously stupid to grow self reinforcing networks where they can oppose cognitive function together. << "oppose cognitive function together altogether" lol.
00:01 mircea_popescu The malpid don't have to establish that criticism of them as wrong, because they will instead insist the criticism is mean. When their favored shiny object betrays them, they will insist the criticism could not have been right as it was mean and they were doomed by some nebulous concept; perhaps they invoke "events that transpired", maybe they invoke "people were mean and that destroyed confidence in out project", but
00:01 mircea_popescu whatever they invoke will have been "outside their control".
00:01 mircea_popescu this dude sorta sits there and chats for a while, then makes a post that makes you suspect maybe he understands a lot more than he lets on.
00:01 mircea_popescu the ruminant type of thinker.

00:12 mircea_popescu ikr?
00:12 mircea_popescu hey punkman
00:13 BingoBoingo S.NSA statements are the best
00:14 ben_vulpes dang. so was last december an intentional red herring?

00:15 punkman rewriting the build chain, building pick n place from scratch, so punk
00:16 mircea_popescu totally punk.
00:16 mircea_popescu let's just hope he doesn't figure out how to make girls before he finishes cardano
00:17 BingoBoingo With all of these tools, I have to wonder what the hell is on order for the second product
00:18 * asciilifeform blows dust off '2nd product' prototype...
00:18 mircea_popescu so about... well just about five years ago i did this thing where i gave a free domain + free cpanel hosting to a bunch of romanian bloggers that seemed more or less okay.
00:18 mircea_popescu all this living on a server somewhere, meanwhile forgotten about
00:18 mircea_popescu today i went through the logs. guess how many of these blogs sitll exist today ?
00:18 mircea_popescu ~20 to start with
00:19 BingoBoingo 2?
00:19 punkman 2?
00:19 asciilifeform 1.
00:19 mircea_popescu 2.
00:19 mircea_popescu well done.
00:19 mircea_popescu one exists as a private only thing, the other not updated since 2013
00:20 BingoBoingo * asciilifeform blows dust off '2nd product' prototype... << Is it a hammer? Just a simple, heavy, old fashioned breaking shit hammer?

00:22 asciilifeform BingoBoingo: the armour made of ceramic floor tiles is a real winner
00:22 asciilifeform BingoBoingo: how did you even find.
00:22 mircea_popescu wait. isn't a piece of armor made out of floor tile actually going to SHARPEN the blade on its way in ?
00:23 mircea_popescu i know i sometimes crack a tile to make a sharpener if in a pinch
00:23 asciilifeform as far as i can tell, it was suggested against small arms
00:23 BingoBoingo asciilifeform: Season 3 episode 4 of "Doomsday Preppers" was mining show for lulz to write on in comparison to Doge et all.
00:23 mircea_popescu that ain't gonna work.
00:23 asciilifeform the odd thing here, the firing range folks are traditionally - empiricists.
00:23 asciilifeform no one thought of trying?
00:24 mircea_popescu lol
00:24 BingoBoingo mircea_popescu: Armor defeated .22 LR and 12 gauge birdshot (thanks to the plate steel used) Failed to .30-06
00:25 * asciilifeform has probably watched every readily available physical object fired upon, on 'youtube'
00:25 punkman string and phonebook would have worked better than ceramic tile
00:25 BingoBoingo This particular idiot tested this with 12 gauge again in a worn test.
00:25 mircea_popescu speaking of empiricists : 2nd guy in here http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xXitc3txlso
00:25 assbot OH thats got to hurt - YouTube
00:25 mircea_popescu "my name is ethel mormon and this is the raquetball trick"
00:27 BingoBoingo mircea_popescu> wait. isn't a piece of armor made out of floor tile actually going to SHARPEN the blade on its way in ? << You forget 'Murican series with subsequent blindspot towards sharp objects as a thing to armor against.
00:28 mircea_popescu right, because if i gotta kill some idiots on a hallway somewhere im going to take an anti tank missile launcher
00:28 asciilifeform 'kevlar' cuts great with even the cheapest knife...

00:37 BingoBoingo "The teams have all been provided with Russian T-72B tanks, except for the Chinese, who apparently came with their own vehicles."
00:37 BingoBoingo ^ The Chinese working on cultivating another export market?

00:39 Vexual military tank was a valid search term
00:39 BingoBoingo Interesting
00:40 ben_vulpes what does "cryptocurrency" mean?
00:40 ben_vulpes the best i've come up with isn't even complete
00:40 ben_vulpes "a cryptographically-secured distributed record of transactions"
00:41 mircea_popescu ben_vulpes it doesnt mean much.
00:41 ben_vulpes "transaction ledger"
00:41 mircea_popescu it's just the current label for bitcoin and bitcoin-forks
00:41 ben_vulpes bitcoin is defined by implementation
00:41 ben_vulpes what the fuck is bitcoin then
00:41 Vexual bingoboingo: it was the drones that started the emails flying
00:42 ben_vulpes "a cryptographically-secured transaction ledger"?
00:42 mircea_popescu a lot more thought will have to go into SPECIFYING B ITCOIN
00:42 mircea_popescu before terms can like have definitions and whatnot.
00:42 ben_vulpes mkay.
00:42 ben_vulpes still a cool thing to hack on for anyone who wants to write hard software but not make any more.
00:42 ben_vulpes s/more/money
00:43 ben_vulpes but consider ripple
00:43 ben_vulpes one can run a ripple client. it's not a bitcoin fork.
00:43 ben_vulpes or ethereum for that matter.
00:43 ben_vulpes (someday)
00:43 Vexual benkay, why not shell into your neighbours dishwasher if you need your dishes done?
00:43 mircea_popescu how is it not a bitcoin fork ?
00:44 ben_vulpes *mind blown*
00:44 mircea_popescu yw come again
00:44 mircea_popescu don't forget to tip the girl downstairs.
00:45 mircea_popescu and with that, i'm off!
00:45 ben_vulpes no but no but no

13:35 chetty I like the big ones better
13:35 * mircea_popescu crafitly stops himself before saying something dumb like "about the same texture, too" and inadvertently giving the whole charade away
13:36 chetty hahahahaha
13:38 BingoBoingo chetty> lmao, that magic serum they are testing for ebola, made from tobacco << Mouse antibodies made inside a tobacco plant!
13:39 chetty BingoBoingo, yeah it actually sounds pretty yucky, but I suppose if you are about to die of ebola ...
13:40 mircea_popescu it'd be too late, then
13:40 BingoBoingo The serum's basically 3 different antibodies for three different targets on the Ebola virus found by giving mice ebola until they could create clonal lines for the cells producing these antibodies and then making tobacco grow it all
13:40 chetty mircea_popescu, apparently not, this serum appears to be curing it
13:41 mircea_popescu o wow.
13:41 BingoBoingo Generally though if you get a monoclonal antibody that targets something, it's going to kill it. The remarkable thing is they went ahead and found three just to be safe.
13:41 mircea_popescu this is sick, so basically they're inserting the missing antibodies thus allowing macrophages and whatnot to clear it ?
13:42 BingoBoingo mircea_popescu: The antibodies bind to the virus and... Boom
13:42 ben_vulpes and here i was hoping for a new global pandemic
13:42 ben_vulpes guess the biologists are useful after all
13:42 BingoBoingo Virus torn apart, no longer viable.
13:42 mircea_popescu impressive thing tho.
13:42 BingoBoingo ben_vulpes: Problem is scaling up production is a pain...
13:43 mircea_popescu tbh i think this throws a monkey wrench in the future viability of "big pandemic" scenarios.
13:43 mircea_popescu it's vanishingly improbable for an antibody to not exist. thus finding it becomes a matter of... well... how much hashing you're doing
13:43 mircea_popescu so if it comes to it... ten trillion mice. why not.
13:44 BingoBoingo Well, this stuff takes time, but yeah... One thing that makes this easier on Ebola and harder on say the flu though is... Ebola doesn't stay latent in cells
13:44 chetty dont dispair, there are always prions
13:44 BingoBoingo Also why there's no Aids serum working on this principle
13:44 mircea_popescu chetty prions you gotta ctually eat.
13:44 mircea_popescu BingoBoingo afaik there was.
13:45 mircea_popescu actually, im glad i got you pinned here bb, cause i wanna run this by you see what you think.
13:45 BingoBoingo K
13:45 mircea_popescu so, aids "had no cure" for a while in the disco era. but then, late 80s/early 90s a certain thing was found that'd slow down its rate, adding 5 maybe 10 years le if well managed. after much hand wringing this was released to the public,
13:45 BingoBoingo mircea_popescu> BingoBoingo afaik there was. << Problem is living cells (where antibodies don't go) harbor the pathogen in the case of AIDs
13:46 ben_vulpes (topical: .hiv pre-registration went up today)
13:46 mircea_popescu only years later a 2nd thing was found. the magic involved was pretty evil, however :
13:46 ben_vulpes (<Pilate> .hiv pre-registration up this morning... apparently i reserved spread.hiv, spreads.hiv, super.hiv, and selling.hiv)
13:46 mircea_popescu if one had never taken pill 1, then a cocktail of 1+2 would stop the virus for them, pretty much resolving the problem. it'd never clear, but it'd never advance.
13:46 mircea_popescu however, the people that had taken pill 1, then a cockail of 1+2 would be significantly less effecual.
13:47 mircea_popescu basically making it a case of "fu for having taken our medicine".
13:47 mircea_popescu recently a 3rd one was found, which actually clears it
13:47 mircea_popescu and like last year something that works as a pre-emptor.
13:47 mircea_popescu ~ fin ~
13:47 BingoBoingo Yeah. AIDs and the resistance it develops is weird.
13:48 BingoBoingo <mircea_popescu> and like last year something that works as a pre-emptor. << Truvada is the trade name, but this pre-exposure prophylaxis thing has been common for exposed medical workers for years. The new thing is someone let the secret out of the bag.
13:48 mircea_popescu i think the biggest problem bar none of modern society is that average derp can name a dozen "puas" or "important feminists" or whatever th fuck
13:49 mircea_popescu yet i have no idea who even came up with those things.
13:49 mircea_popescu who the fuck led the research effort that made ebola strain '#2 ?
13:49 mircea_popescu who's in charge of the lab that raises the tobacco growing it ?
13:49 mircea_popescu FUCK YOU MAINSTREAM MEDIA.
13:49 mircea_popescu i don't care who obama is.

13:50 BingoBoingo !b 6
13:52 BingoBoingo AIDs though is weird because of how the virus adapts to drugs in situ. Maybe part of this is just drugs that fight it do so by fucking with DNA/RNA expression... Maybe it is just that much of a natural asshole.
13:53 BingoBoingo At least it isn't in the human genome like Herpes
13:53 mircea_popescu technically it could be
13:53 mircea_popescu if it's fragmented.
13:54 BingoBoingo Well, the it is definitely in particular person's genomes now, but... not across most of the species
13:54 BingoBoingo yet
13:54 mircea_popescu think of it : monkeys don't suffer much from it, so it's been around for a while. sure yurpeans "discovered it" but it can't possibly be the first case of interaction.
13:54 mircea_popescu for all you know it was part of the ancient egyptian genome, now extinct.
13:55 BingoBoingo Well, that could be.
13:56 BingoBoingo Imagine if Khan swung through Africa before hitting Europe and introduced diseases other than "classic" plague
13:56 mircea_popescu in fact, it COULD be that aids-as part of genome is what makes niggers niggers. as unpleasant at that sounds, it's at least possible, scientifically. yet none of the speculative fiction folk with an axe to grind are using it.
13:56 mircea_popescu testament to the sad ignorance of everyone involved.
13:57 BingoBoingo Lack of historical Small Pox exposure made Americans vulnerable to distilled spirits?
13:58 mircea_popescu and why not ?
13:58 mircea_popescu that's the halmark of speculative fiction. it asks science "and why not" an' science dunno.
13:59 chetty well these days most science seems to get the answer it wants first, then work backwards to the question
14:00 mircea_popescu i think that's been sop for a while.
14:00 mircea_popescu newton got hit in the head by a falling apple... "hmm how could i turn this bump into a research grant"
14:00 BingoBoingo Speculative historical virology... Lots of ground for rich fiction.
14:01 mircea_popescu yup
14:01 mircea_popescu i mean, the trope itself, "eschatological contagion" is like what, 1/3 of all of it ?
14:01 mircea_popescu yet they never fucking bother to do anything with it, just rehash the same crap.
14:01 * BingoBoingo remembers first discovering that Malaria, the exotic tropical disease was once endemic to the temperate Middle West
14:01 mircea_popescu well yes ?
14:02 mircea_popescu malaria is not exotic.
14:02 mircea_popescu let me tell you something : 1950s romanian fiction about the life of romanian peastants cca 1900 includes malaria as a common disease.
14:02 BingoBoingo Well, in places corn grows it has become exotic... DDT did some work
14:02 mircea_popescu surely.
14:03 mircea_popescu (and yes these were corn growing ppls)
14:03 BingoBoingo One of the University of Illinois's rare closures came to malaria ~100 years ago. But since the corn growing people here now lack history... Once endemic disease is now exotica
14:05 chetty lack of history is a problem all across the spectrum

14:14 TomServo mircea_popescu: On that topic, I've been meaning to ask for a while... I thought Gox was deemed to be of ill-repute well before the shutdown. So why was still seen as a viable price indicator until it's bitter end?
14:14 TomServo And why are the current exchanges any less so?
14:15 thickasthieves if i recall, i think mp thought they had removed gox, though that wasnt til close to the end
14:15 thickasthieves i could be wrong
14:15 TomServo I mean as far as the options market goes.
14:15 mircea_popescu TomServo well it's a complex matter, like all history. for one thing, mtgox was a (diminishing, constantly diminishing) part of the total pool. it looked for a while like the problem may solve itself.
14:16 mircea_popescu moreover, you gotta read the article in question, i'm not going to do random interpretations off the cuff at any random point it may happen to be discussed. at no point in there is it said "closing options because of mtgox's poor repute".
14:18 thickasthieves oh i recall, you wanted to cover your ass and discovered that wasnt so easy

20:06 pete_dushenski commenter: "currently the people most likely to end up as the new aristocracy would be the likes of Zuckerberg, people with nary a clue but lots of money, thus influence, and a strong incentive to please their backers, which inevitably ends up selling out the plebs. I don’t think I would particularly like to end up stagnant in such a pool. There is very little benevolent about mob rule, no matter the kind of mob."
