this is scarce consolation to the poor schmucks sent to die in the trenches, of course, but we're here discussing the larger problem |

"The other model Hariezer lays out is that magic lies on a single recessive gene. He reasons squibs have one dominant, non-magical version, and one recessive magical version of the gene. So of kids born to squibs, 1/4 will be wizards. In this version, you either have magic or you dont, so if wizards married the non-magical, wizards themselves could become more rare, but the power of wizards wont be diluted. C |

there's places with 30+ genes, of which multiple are dominant. |
03:50 |
mircea_popescu |
if the gene for being a total fucktard has genes A through P and a through w, where upcase ones are dominant, it may be the case that the AD kid is the geniusest of them all and the BG kid is the total fucking retardest of the lot, way behind ww or ft or whatever the fuck other recessive combo |

and it is unlikely but technically possible that you actually require a TRISOMY to get the topmost performance. |
03:53 |
mircea_popescu |
which may put it in the billions to one odds of happening, which means that we know enough about genetics since the genome has been sequenced to make judgements about on par with the quality of the pseudoscience that gave us "global warming" and "carbon" |
03:54 |
mircea_popescu |
(trisomy is usually a copy of one or the other gene, but it doesn't actually have to be - it could be a mix of them, which ~could~ be a legitimate new gene, if mindbogglingly improbable) |
03:56 |
mircea_popescu |
(conversely, it's usually the case that you do require a trisomy or other polysomy to get the actual worst performance available - kids with such genetic defects are almost universally retarded and sterile) |

Contrary to popular opinion within the false Christian world (2 Timothy 3:1-5 & 4:3), God is a Man, as Exodus 15:3 plainly declares. Not corruptible (Romans 1:23; 1 Corinthians 15:50), not created (Psalm 90:2), not a man who progressed and "achieved his exalted rank" as Mormons teach (see the report on Mormonism). But nonetheless, the Lord is a Man. He is a Man of war. |

mircea_popescu: if asking about the 'second kbd controller as jammer' - the small physical differences (esp. in the quartz oscillator) add up to a distinguishable 'fingerprint' which lets enemy pull a particular kbd signal out of a room full of'em |
13:05 |

mircea_popescu: if about hypothetical purpose-built jammer - keyboard scan matrix in particular is a moving target, as the frequency of the telltale signal will vary considerably depending on which key(s) are pressed |

make a sort of cyclotron in your living room, all electrons end up on the plate. |
13:34 |
chetty |
ouch, worse than having a fan run while you sleep |
13:34 |
mircea_popescu |
asciilifeform let's forget optical fibres for a second and consider this : on a standard keyboard, making a spoke portrude from each key so that from a width-long perspective each spoke is separated by any other is trivial mechanically. lighting one width and sticking a camera on the other width then resolves the problem, |
13:34 |
mircea_popescu |
you now have optical keypress |
13:35 |
mircea_popescu |
chetty i guess so does all your dust plus the cats, huh |
13:41 |
asciilifeform |
mircea_popescu: faraday cage is not (if correctly constructed) a radiating element at all |
13:42 |
mircea_popescu |
hence passive. it is still a radiator in my theoretical view of things, because it COULD |
13:44 |
mircea_popescu |
anyway, make mesh of two wires, so that on each hole you have at least one spot of wire at - potential and one spot at + potential. then the size of the hole and the intensity of the emission tell you how much potential you need in the cage. |

asciilifeform is this factually true, that you had the wrong part in there for a while, then switched it out to the right part and ordered immediately ? |
17:08 |

well hopefully they fixed it. |
17:11 |
mircea_popescu |
so let me ask you this composite question : |
17:12 |
mircea_popescu |
if the world was working as it did before computers, ascii would have been one of the few people with pen and paper, and wrote a description to one of the few people who made what he needed, and by virtue of that fewness they'd have actually been friends. the letter took a week to get there, the work took a week to be done, and so a month later alf has his peas or w/e he's needing for alchemy. |
17:12 |
mircea_popescu |
as the work works now, software makes everything much easier and faster. errors especially. |
17:12 |
mircea_popescu |
as a result... a month later alf does not have his peas. |
17:12 |
mircea_popescu |
please to progress on the dotted line. |

17:15 |

if you're in the 1% that did then as it does now, the fact that there's a further aspirational 19% added to the pot does not help you |

17:20 |
mircea_popescu |
it's not a simple matter of money, as money's not invariant over the cases we discuss. |
17:21 |
asciilifeform |
'money' in the allocator sense (see old mircea_popescu thread about subsistence vs capital-allocator) |
17:21 |
asciilifeform |
or the 'percent of pie' sense discussed in possibly same thread |
17:21 |

but you don't need that. you merely need to be deemed by a major capital allocator worthy of the allocation. |

for those also reading this email dump, 53 is where Hannum finally addresses Theo |

54/55 is Theo's response which is quite funny |

"Charles, i feel your answer to be a rather virtiolic flame." |

danielpbarron |
"i'm somewhat unhappy to hear you say what you are saying, or the tone |
