12:23 assbot How China's One-Child Policy Is Setting Nation Up for Economic Crisis
12:25 mats_cd03 setting up for invasion maybe
12:25 mats_cd03 an aggressive china would be interesting to see...what would they take first?
12:25 mircea_popescu doubt they really need to. besides, they're playing this game of humiliating the us,
12:26 mircea_popescu where they don't need to invade places to win.
12:26 mircea_popescu so far it's working splendidly.
12:27 mats_cd03 all those young men though.
12:28 mircea_popescu which ?
12:28 mats_cd03 i guess there are going to be a lot of gay chinese men in that generation
12:29 mircea_popescu you're using some sort of prior here im not privy to. say wut ?
12:30 chetty lots of 'extra' men makes for good wars
12:30 mircea_popescu it could.
12:30 mircea_popescu china is traditionally a sort of dog vomit (the fungus). it doesn't really war.
12:32 chetty dont think the issue of lots of extra menn has come up before, might twist traditions a bit
12:32 mircea_popescu true
12:36 chetty wow, there might actually be something new under the sun
12:36 mats_cd03 a society designed for rigor mortis, in some ways
12:37 bounce meh. I thought that china /wanted/ a smaller population which naturally includes a smaller workforce. so how that's now a problem eludes me. unless "economic growth" is part of your religion, perhaps.
12:38 mircea_popescu bounce you will have to appreciate idiot western peoples, even without any help from the propaganda machine, automatically interpret phenomena in a certain key.
12:38 mircea_popescu so you know, arab women are unhappy because they don't live in the downtown on foodstamps, which has to be better than what they got because what else is the speaker doing there ?!
12:39 mircea_popescu and certainly the chinese have "problems" they never heard of. similarly to how putin "doesn't understand how reality works".
12:43 chetty well the age spread of the population may cause some issues, even if you ignore economic growth
12:44 assbot [MPEX] [S.MPOE] 18550 @ 0.00075141 = 13.9387 BTC [+]
12:44 bounce on another note, we've had quite a lot of skillfully-hidden-in-the-numbers inflation that's well above the official growth rates. thus depleting both savings and hiding an effective economic decline
12:46 bounce also, we are running headlong into the aging workforce problem now; china has a while to fix it and by that time can steal all those smart carebots the japanese are building
12:46 chetty lmao, not so hidded, unless you tend to believe usg published numbers
12:46 bounce I think china's sitting prettier than we are.
12:47 chetty s/hidden
12:47 mircea_popescu bounce china is sitting prettier than everyone for the very simple reason that it has the absolute lead in all technology.
12:47 mircea_popescu it doesn't cost THEM fifty trillion to try and fail to build a new airplane.
12:48 bounce if by "lead" meaning "has a copy of the plans and can cherry-pick the ones that work", yes
12:48 mircea_popescu moreover if it does, it can pay cash.
12:48 mircea_popescu no, i mean the us has transferred all its technology there in exchange for cheap labour but under condition it shares the tech
12:48 mircea_popescu whereas china has not nor will ever do the same.
12:48 mircea_popescu if you pour from a to b but never from b to a, you can bet your ears b's gonna be fuller.
12:49 mats_cd03 an interesting theory
12:49 mircea_popescu quite far from a theory, this.
12:49 mircea_popescu observable phenomena for > 30 years by now.
12:50 bounce at the same time they have a serious plaggiarism problem (they copied "publish or perish" too, bwahahaha) so long term they're risking stagnation
12:50 mats_cd03 you perceive the flow isn't imperceptibly happening in the other direction, too
12:50 mircea_popescu and china is liable to continue on the course that brought it success, humbly begging for what it wants, rather than suddenly swich to the course that sunk the us.
12:50 mircea_popescu even if the us imagines that now that china has the better car it should drive it the same way it drove its own, right into a wall.
12:51 mircea_popescu china's parents woudn't approve, and moreover china doesn't want to be either stupid or in possesison of a car wreckage.
12:51 mircea_popescu bounce perhaps not very creative, yes. perhaps that may matter. if it will, it won't be this century.
12:51 mircea_popescu the romans lived a millenium out of carefuly implementing the greek ideas.
12:52 chetty inventiveness is not a high point of china, doubt they will come up with any new ideas
12:52 mircea_popescu careful management and patient attention is good enough for a lifetime.
12:52 mircea_popescu chetty i will tell you one new idea they came up with. they made the astoundingly daring move of organising their defense on sane grounds. china is surrounded by about a million rockets.
12:53 mircea_popescu there's no way to effectualy destroy these, and there's no way the us aircraft carriers could survive an hour in a hostile china sea.
12:53 bounce it'll be a while but it'll be stuck a goodly while too. a thousand years of stagnation they've already had.
12:53 mircea_popescu that's novel enough for their needs.
12:54 chetty well I wouldnt call it novel, but it does seem they read history better than most
12:54 assbot [MPEX] [S.MPOE] 13650 @ 0.00075146 = 10.2574 BTC [+] {2}
12:54 mircea_popescu (and europe pushing china out of their galileo thing was incredibly stupid, but then again europe is chiefly remembered in history for astounding stupidity)
12:54 mircea_popescu chetty see ? what's in a novelty.
12:54 mircea_popescu people can get by for a while just making good use of the history book.
12:55 mats_cd03 the memory of your enemy on your shores is something that stays vivid for a long time
12:56 mircea_popescu bounce stagnation isn't as bad as you may think.
12:57 mats_cd03 ive been thinking about space exploration. are we going to carve up mars into nations? or, perhaps further into the future, every nation gets its own planet
12:57 bounce in the current set-up with deliberate inflation it's... not a good idea.
12:58 mats_cd03 think of the experiments we could perform over millenia.
12:58 mircea_popescu mats_cd03 are you aware mars is inhospitable ?
12:58 mats_cd03 yes
12:59 assbot [MPEX] [S.MPOE] 14850 @ 0.00075141 = 11.1584 BTC [-]
12:59 mircea_popescu so then why mars specifically ? why not real estate 5000 feet underground.
13:00 bounce "off-site backups"
13:01 bounce also, "reaching for the stars" is much more appealing than digging hobbit holes
13:02 chetty people wont go 'to the stars' until they stop squabbling over pieces of pie on earth, ie never
13:02 mircea_popescu that may well not matter hm ?
13:03 asciilifeform off-planet is appealing precisely because of the cost, for enemy, of following you there.
13:04 mircea_popescu stotting behaviour ?
13:04 asciilifeform at least.
13:04 mircea_popescu unless there's a hospitable planet somewhere,
13:04 mircea_popescu or unless earth goes to shit to the degree of making mars look like freshly shaved virgin pussy
13:04 mircea_popescu there's no stars bs.
13:05 mircea_popescu you could live on the antarctic right now, if you fancy paying 2k for a bottle of fizz.
13:05 mats_cd03 close enough to menace earth and there might even be resources
13:05 asciilifeform antarctic - not automatic sovereign.
13:05 mircea_popescu fuck, you could live in that "gulch" real estate scam.
13:05 asciilifeform within range of derps' weapons.
13:05 mircea_popescu asciilifeform tell you what, you know what an indentured servant is ?
13:05 asciilifeform certainly.
13:05 mircea_popescu no way in fuck you're going to be a "sovereign" on a planet you just colonised.
13:05 mircea_popescu unless you make your own crops and your own space stations...
13:06 mircea_popescu think early us. what sovereign ?
13:06 asciilifeform naturally
13:06 mircea_popescu yes well, people don't undergo centuriesd of expense to fulfil a cartoon dream.
13:06 asciilifeform interestingly, no one, afaik, has mentioned the solid prerequisite of fixing RuBisCo enzyme.
13:06 mircea_popescu unless the planet is naturally hospitable, unless there's an angle somewhere, not happening.
13:07 * asciilifeform has eyes, sees that it isn't happening, quite a few missing pieces with nowhere to come from
13:07 * asciilifeform but definitely grasps the appeal
13:08 chetty unless of course some friendly aliens drop in and give us a ride :D
13:08 bounce notice how india got there for less budget than that movie. and less than a third of a single "cheap, reusable" shuttle launch
13:09 asciilifeform mircea_popescu: the inescapable moral of story is that it is much cheaper to launch the rockets - horizontally - and clean up earth from pests
13:09 mats_cd03 i wonder if they used duct tape.
13:09 mircea_popescu bounce right, "<mircea_popescu> it doesn't cost THEM fifty trillion to try and fail to build a new airplane."
13:09 mircea_popescu asciilifeform no need for rockets. you don't kill cockroaches with a .5
13:10 mircea_popescu even if you have one.
13:10 bounce nobody's complaining that dollars are buying so much less in the developed world, though
13:11 mircea_popescu orly ?
13:15 mats_cd03 http://www.ibtimes.co.uk/vatican-paedophilia-scandal-archbishop-jozef-wesolowski-stored-over-100000-child-porn-videos-1467410
13:15 assbot Vatican Paedophilia Scandal: Archbishop Jozef Wesolowski Stored Over 100,000 Child Porn Videos
13:15 mats_cd03 highest ranking pedo ever
13:19 bounce there's some outsourcing (and grumbling the work coming back is sub-par) and some grumbling about "jobs lost" and such. but the spacex thing is relatively recent, and I haven't really noticed much drive to cut the costs of the various wars being waged, for example. it's just... lower taxes, spend more, run up a bigger debt bill.
13:20 mircea_popescu so nobody is complaining. like, i can hire someone for 2k a month because they won't complain.
13:20 mircea_popescu i'll just say hey, 2k a month was plenty 20 years ago
13:20 mircea_popescu and they'll say sure, ample.
13:23 bounce what does the walmart employee make, across their three separate jobs minus the transport costs to get from one job to another? also, why do they have three jobs and still need food stamps?
13:23 chetty http://dailysignal.com/2014/09/27/michelle-obama-wrong-trash-america-un/
13:23 assbot Why Michelle Obama Was Wrong to Trash America at the UN
13:25 chetty The next time Michelle Obama stands before an audience of countries where women are truly discriminated against—some forced to cover their entire bodies or have a male guardian with them in public—and complains that America struggles with “harmful cultural norms that tell women how they are expected to look and act,” forgive me if I’m a little embarrassed.
13:25 mircea_popescu how could michelle obama have been wrong ?!
13:25 mircea_popescu don't these people know she';s black ?
13:25 mircea_popescu AND a woman ?

22:44 asciilifeform (other than 'stay in castle, don't use portable electronics at all')
22:44 ben_vulpes an acquaintance of mine was recently derping on his girl's phone, as there was a hilarious loop where her old phone had 16G of stuff and was utterly full, bought a new phone with...16G of storage, connected it to her 'iCloud' account, and watched as the thing immediately filled up and bricked itself
22:45 ben_vulpes DURING the hacker fix process for this (which ultimately entailed deleting the iCloud account in question), my acquaintance and sometime colleague was browsing through the lady's photos to find...
22:45 ben_vulpes pictures of *his* cat
22:45 ben_vulpes from *his* nexus 1
22:45 ben_vulpes that had never been mailed anywhere
22:46 ben_vulpes his hypotheses: she'd plugged his phone into her computer at some point and "sure whatevere"'d all his photos onto her computer, and thence to apple
22:46 asciilifeform lol

22:48 Diablo-D3 that sounds wrong
22:48 ben_vulpes well "immediately" per the local pipe throughput
22:48 Diablo-D3 even if you restore a backup from icloud, it doesn't restore your photos into your local photo storage
22:48 Diablo-D3 it keeps them in the icloud storage
22:49 Diablo-D3 you have to manually go into the photo app and tell it to copy selected photos to local
22:49 ben_vulpes there is also a "sync my data" thinger for new phones.
22:50 ben_vulpes you got upped for this?

22:52 assbot AMAZING COMPANY!
22:52 Diablo-D3 and theres only about 12.3gb of usable storage on said 16gb phone
22:52 ben_vulpes the displays system preference gives one two radio buttons:
22:52 Diablo-D3 so you need 1/3rd of your ufcking phone
22:52 Diablo-D3 to upgrade
22:52 ben_vulpes "best for displays"
22:52 Diablo-D3 to fix THEIR bugs
22:52 ben_vulpes "scaled"
22:52 asciilifeform Diablo-D3: well, to upgrade without a connected computer, yes
22:52 Diablo-D3 ben_vulpes: best for display just selects the correct scaled for retina
22:52 ben_vulpes selecting "scaled" gives you 4 options
22:52 asciilifeform Diablo-D3: it downloads a turd, needs space to decompress it
22:52 Diablo-D3 asciilifeform: no, tried through the itunes usb shit too
22:52 ben_vulpes "larger text"
22:53 ben_vulpes jesus Diablo-D3 let a guy tell a story ffs
22:53 ben_vulpes "Best (Retina)"
22:53 Diablo-D3 asciilifeform: and it gets even better
22:53 ben_vulpes an unnamed option (WTF)
22:53 ben_vulpes and "More Space"
22:53 Diablo-D3 asciilifeform: the icloud storage was filled almost completely with an incomplete backup
22:53 Diablo-D3 asciilifeform: because the phone tried to backup to 5gb of storage
22:54 Diablo-D3 asciilifeform: and my neighbor just said icloud was broken and she never used it
22:54 Diablo-D3 it was broken because it was full with a backup that ios should have never tried making
22:54 Diablo-D3 asciilifeform: I mean, thats even the bigger fucking problem
22:54 Diablo-D3 apple ships phones with icloud backup automatically enabled
22:54 Diablo-D3 and only gives you 5gb of space
22:54 Diablo-D3 unless you pay for more
22:54 Diablo-D3 so, out of the box, your phone is broken
22:55 asciilifeform lulzies.
22:55 Diablo-D3 asciilifeform: and itunes's UX is so insane that theres no way to backup the photos
22:55 Diablo-D3 asciilifeform: they expect you to use icloud for it independently of the make backup thing in itunes
22:56 Diablo-D3 asciilifeform: so I had to go and fucking copy them out of the DCIM folder on the phone
22:56 asciilifeform yet can you picture a talking head, or newspaper, asking question 'should a new os always use more space?'
22:56 Diablo-D3 asciilifeform: so what I did do is
22:56 Diablo-D3 convince her to just fucking pay
22:56 Diablo-D3 for the $2/mo option
22:57 ben_vulpes there is iPhoto. it copies photos from the i* pretty trivially.
22:57 ben_vulpes no wait
22:57 ben_vulpes just trivially
22:58 Diablo-D3 ben_vulpes: no
22:58 Diablo-D3 only if you're on osx
22:58 Diablo-D3 said victim was on windows
22:59 Diablo-D3 why she has an iphone? no clue
22:59 ben_vulpes don't try to leave the cage.
22:59 decimation imagine if ios/osx/windows had a new release that was smaller than the previous turd
22:59 decimation people would be outraged because "you are stealing our new features"
22:59 ben_vulpes well she's on the right track. have you seen technical incompetents try to use android phones?
23:00 ben_vulpes the android platform does a magical job of implementing software-accelerated phone aging.
23:00 ben_vulpes apple's done a decent job on the software jailing, so the phone operating system doesn't rot quite as quickly as its counterparts, so they're forced to release new "operating systems" that consume ever more resources.
23:00 ben_vulpes on android, the users saw their *own* feet off.
23:01 decimation ben_vulpes: agreed, my android phone magically rots, even despite my attempts to trim shit
23:01 ben_vulpes the only people happy with androids are those with the budget to replace them every 8 months
23:01 ben_vulpes or the technical savvy to wipe the things, ibid
23:01 TomServo Where are all the phones with hardware keyboards, is what I'd like to know.
23:02 ben_vulpes i was just pining for my n90
23:02 decimation I have hardware keyboard on my android
23:02 ben_vulpes i'd settle for a startac
23:02 TomServo decimation: How old is it?
23:02 ben_vulpes my father sent me out with his startac when i was a wee one, for 'supervision'.
23:03 ben_vulpes i forgot i had any electronics on me, went romping through a fountain, fried a legendarily high quality phone.
23:03 ben_vulpes i cannot atone for all my sins.
23:03 thestringpuller software accelerated phone aging?
23:03 thestringpuller you mean the phone's hardware can't keep up with the updates?
23:04 decimation it was released in 2012 http://www.gsmarena.com/samsung_galaxy_s_relay_4g_t699-4914.php
23:04 assbot Samsung Galaxy S Relay 4G T699 - Full phone specifications

23:17 mircea_popescu decimation the advantage of owning the factory.
23:17 mircea_popescu work a third shift, make yourself a bunch of ipads too.
23:17 decimation when everyone wants an ipad that works well, but it appears apple's sexy has worn off a bit
23:18 ben_vulpes they still go for a decent markup in ars
23:20 decimation !up Diablo-D3
23:21 Diablo-D3 yay

23:22 Diablo-D3 evne though I knew it years ago
23:22 Diablo-D3 and nuked all the bfl threads
23:22 Diablo-D3 and lost my bitcointalk modship over it

23:26 decimation it will be depressing to watch google slowly merge into usg
23:26 asciilifeform slowly? lol
23:26 mircea_popescu why depressing ?
23:27 decimation it rings the bell labeled "no escape" for all to hear in us-land
23:27 mircea_popescu http://www.bitcoinprivilege.com/cazalla_forum_posts.html << gotta commend cazalla for his honesty lol.
23:27 assbot Forum Posts
23:27 asciilifeform as if it is possible to have independent existence from usg while being 'the #1 xxx' in u.s. media organs ever.
23:27 asciilifeform no escape << what evidence they ever tried to 'escape'
23:28 decimation none
23:28 mircea_popescu asciilifeform incidentally, ever seen the lives of others ?
23:28 asciilifeform nope
23:28 mircea_popescu a, maybe worth sometime.
23:28 decimation in fact the evidence we have is that they have tried to merge with usg since it became thinkable
23:28 * asciilifeform puts on list
23:28 mircea_popescu very good rendition of east berlin life and times.
23:29 mircea_popescu mid 80
23:29 mircea_popescu s
23:29 asciilifeform east berlin mid 80s << aha, where i live now but with better people.
23:30 asciilifeform when this kind of thing comes up, for some reason all i can think of is a fellow who worked in a lab across the hall from my old place of work - who fessed up to playing 'call of duty: iraq' while... in iraq
23:30 mircea_popescu it's gets enough very subtle things exactly right for me to call it an passible teaching substitute for actual experience
23:30 mircea_popescu also check out what butchery i made of english in that phrase!
23:30 decimation asciilifeform: lol
23:31 decimation he was probably in some air conditioned bunker "in the field"
23:35 asciilifeform likely.
~ 22 minutes ~
23:58 decimation asciilifeform: have you taken the CADR verilog design published by Mr. Parker and run them on your own chip?
23:58 asciilifeform decimation: nope.
23:59 asciilifeform decimation: i'm not really enamored of the cadr as such
