00:39 assbot Logged on 28-08-2015 02:14:58; moonpunter: well this thing that just happened in ferguson, where the cops showed up with overwhelming force and the kid decided to shoot at them before he died. it's like at what point are you allowed to defend yourself if you are reasonably certain you're going to die.

01:12 thestringpuller ben_vulpes: funny story you may enjoy.
01:13 thestringpuller So at work I'm migrating a web property from an agency to my company's control. So I have 3 environments: dev, staging, production.
01:13 ben_vulpes what's dev other than your laptop?
01:13 ben_vulpes nm carry on
01:13 thestringpuller The code is so poor it works differently on all three environments, so the only way to truly know if it works is to test on production.
01:13 thestringpuller how you write code this poorly configured, I do not know.
01:13 ben_vulpes "suit up kid. we're putting your laptop into production."
01:14 thestringpuller p. much.
01:14 thestringpuller it's like some college dropout went through github and chose every web technology that seemed "fun" at the time regarding php.

01:17 phf we had this girl in the country house area, who every summer would be into the most pop thing of the time. we'd play a game, end of may when you get there, ask her if she's into whatever trashy thing at the time, "oooh, i love it how did you know". can do same with full stack developers by scanning hackernews frontpage
01:18 thestringpuller ben_vulpes: when you say rescue project...you mean rescue them from those technologies right?
01:19 ben_vulpes bulk of the project is a mongo -> postgresql conversion

09:27 kakobrekla later on he downgraded it to 'boiled down to soap'.
09:27 asciilifeform kakobrekla: that's starvation, vs gassing
09:29 asciilifeform re: pankkakeing: the basic process is, i think, that someone shows up here, plays for a while, then understands that rocket will not come, will not take him to mars. and leaves - unless he had some entirely other reason for sticking around, such as having become embroiled in actual projects with other people here.
09:30 cazalla 91 advert views.. 1 response to which no additional response was forthcoming.. you'd think asking for $20 an hour (with room to negoiate for those able to muster the courage to ask would get some work but meh)
09:30 asciilifeform adlai, unlike various idlers, actually had a very spiffy project. one which very much resembled something i've attempted to write myself.
09:30 asciilifeform it was his tradebot thing, in common lisp.
09:31 asciilifeform but iirc he was unable to find anyone who would dare to connect it to live btc, on terms that both could agree to.

13:37 mircea_popescu which i suspect is 50% of how "mtgow" got started)
13:38 PeterL "If I follow these steps, the girls will want to date me" sort of thinking?
13:38 mircea_popescu not EXACTLY.
13:38 mircea_popescu it's a fundamental expectation that a) world is reasonably constructed and b) the reasons are accessible. to him.
13:38 trinque hm.
13:38 mircea_popescu now, a may or may not be true. but b ? fuck you lmao.
13:39 mircea_popescu the last time things made sense to me i was 5 years old.
13:39 trinque sounds like female expectation is fundamentally irrational then.
13:39 trinque magical, even
13:39 mircea_popescu trinque how you figure ?
13:39 trinque well how far does this "accessible to him" go?
13:39 trinque I've heard lots of moaning about "make the world the way I want" from women
13:39 trinque generally repulses me
13:39 mircea_popescu think about it for a second. in any game, the "rational" player is the defeated player. rational in this context merely means "that which has been intellectually dominated by the other side".
13:40 mircea_popescu "women" may be "dumb". but they're not this dumb.
13:41 trinque hm, why is rationality on the side of the defeated?
13:41 mircea_popescu (and yes this is also why the state urges the individual to "be rational". oooofcourseitwould. the only rational thing to do is to preserve the 5th amendment, which is to say : i reserve the right to unilaterally shoot any and all policemen on my say so. because that's what fucking independence is.)
13:41 mircea_popescu trinque well think about it. what does "rational" mean ? that YOU can understand it, right ?
13:41 mircea_popescu if the soviets think the germans are being rational and are right, the soviets win. if vice-versa, vice-versa.
13:42 trinque yes, something like I have a model of reality (even if incomplete) and act coherently within that model?
13:42 trinque that makes sense
13:42 mircea_popescu the demand to rationality reduces to "act in a manner i can understand"
13:42 mircea_popescu dominating your environment reduces to ... understanding it.
13:42 mircea_popescu ergo...
13:42 mircea_popescu "why can't you be more like plants, said the sheep to the wolf"
13:42 trinque perfectly clear.
13:42 mircea_popescu "be more rational!"
13:42 ascii_field eh, a man with his head off also 'acts in manner his opponent can understand'
13:43 mircea_popescu obviously.
13:43 ascii_field but so does executioner
13:43 mircea_popescu and this is why "incomprehensible" and "evil" are so deeply entertwined throughout the history of thought.
13:43 mircea_popescu it's very plain game theory at work.
13:43 mircea_popescu why do people think whosoever they don't grasp is inspired by satan himself ?

15:47 trinque I love the way the german language sounds.
15:48 trinque was trying to learn; the myriad articles still kick my puny english ass
15:48 trinque though their specificity, I'm sure very useful
15:49 mircea_popescu what myriad dood, there's 3.
15:49 trinque "this particular one of the set" which is what, dieser?
15:49 mircea_popescu you should see fucking romanian or russian if german is myriad
15:49 trinque that stood out as glaringly absent in english
15:49 trinque oh, I admitted my english puniness
15:49 mircea_popescu trinque depends on gender.
15:49 trinque lol
15:50 mircea_popescu but just because english makes a mess of vocative case / demonstrative pronoun / possesives etc doesn't mean much.
15:50 mircea_popescu (demonstrative is what got boiled down into this/that/these/those)
15:51 mircea_popescu most languages also have a posessive, which in english is conflated in his/hers/theirs.
15:51 mircea_popescu like in romanian you can ask "ale cui is pizdele astea ?" (whose are these cunts ?) and the anser come "ale aceluia" (that guy's) or ale aceleia (that gal's) etc.

15:52 assbot Seeed - Dancehall Caballeros (official Video) - YouTube ... ( http://bit.ly/1PDw4S6 )
15:52 mircea_popescu so you have the seemingly confounding a/al/ai/ale + acesta/acela aceasta/aceea acestia/aceia acestea/acelea. for a grand total of omfg it's romanian - the gathering!
15:53 trinque yeah, I can begin to see how a particular language can limit the specificity of expression
15:53 mircea_popescu (these three males) + (belonging to that guy) = ai aceluia ; (this single female) + (belonging to that group of females) = a acelora.
15:53 mircea_popescu etc.
15:53 trinque will have to dedicate some later part of life to improving my grasp of other languages.
15:53 mircea_popescu just study latin.
15:53 mircea_popescu pretty much all structure of language at the outset of possibility is in there. once you learn it it's just "fill the colors" for any other.
15:54 mircea_popescu which is why it used to be mandatory for learned gentlemen.
15:54 trinque makes sense.
15:55 ascii_field ru works also.
15:56 ascii_field (for illustrating the above.)
15:56 mircea_popescu classic education in russian puts one at no disadvantage.
15:56 mircea_popescu certainly nothing like english does anyway
15:56 ascii_field no pluralgenderedpossessive though
15:57 ascii_field (it is not given to any one language to have all the jumpers set)
15:57 mircea_popescu incidentally the little card trading game illustrated above is the romanian #1 class distinguisher.
15:57 mircea_popescu "are you a pleb or did your parents have enough spare food in your childhood to have the time to teach you the fucking cases"
15:58 mircea_popescu and yes, about half the population doesn't get them right on the first try.
16:00 trinque !up ascii_field
16:02 trinque I've suspected due to the way russian speakers speak english, "a" and "the" might be absent or expressed differently
16:03 ascii_field trinque: ru lacks articles
16:03 mircea_popescu it declines and you're supposed to guess from declension
16:03 mircea_popescu very...chinese, really.
16:06 trinque IRC seems to have influenced me to drop certain subjects, certain articles

16:07 mod6 hm i dunno, maybe it'll come back
16:07 mircea_popescu but the main problem english faces is that it fails to make the complemet distinctions. in romanian : la baieti (to the boys) ; baietilor (to the boys). first tells you where, the 2nd whom.
16:08 ascii_field aha you can't 'homo homini lupus est' (tm) in english
16:08 mircea_popescu quite.

16:09 mircea_popescu ascii_field no you can, check it out : man is the wolf of men / man is wolf to men.
16:09 mircea_popescu english, as spoken by the fucking queen, before they got the current crop of hamburg tavern wenches, was in point of fact an actual language.
16:09 trinque is that "homini" like "upon other men"
16:10 ascii_field mircea_popescu: that's an explanation, i dare say, not a translation
16:10 mircea_popescu trinque one's "to whom ?" the other is "to where"
16:10 mircea_popescu ascii_field much like the british empire was a pretension, not a reality.
16:10 trinque right, takes much more verbosity to convey similar, but not the same meaning
16:10 trinque as with git vs V
16:12 mircea_popescu it is perhaps not an idle topic of inquiry to find how much of the rotten-ness of extant software stack mostly comes from the unfortunate happenstance that it was written by people who spoke english with their women.
16:12 mircea_popescu a language clearly intended to be spoken to horses.

16:14 BingoBoingo cazalla: We share a business. It's survived nearly a year. Also the particular numbers next to ratings don't exactly mean much.
16:15 BingoBoingo Oh, I did the WoT clean up just a little bit ago
16:15 BingoBoingo Sober, my weekend doesn't start for a few more hours
16:15 mircea_popescu "how representative of this person i consider my experience with them"
16:16 mircea_popescu and yes this discussion of structure does merely belie much deeper divergence in the actual usage, which i suspect is driven by fundamental divergence in phylosophy.
16:17 cazalla BingoBoingo, yeah i understand the numbers thing only has value to you, so i am sure you will not be offended that i don't rate higher than a 4-5 for anyone i've yet to share a meal with.
16:17 mircea_popescu for instance, in english : "they found the body" (ie, corpse) ; "smoking is bad for the body" (ie, mechanism) ; this is the body of christ.
16:18 mircea_popescu in romanian : au gasit ~corpul~ [neinsufletit] ; fumatul face rau ~organismului~ ; acesta este ~trupul~ lui hristos.
16:18 BingoBoingo More than anything I use the numbers as a rough combination of interactions and "bus factor"
16:18 mircea_popescu three fucking words. because one's the mechanical body, and the other the biologic body, and the third the metaphysical body.
16:18 shinohai corpus Christi
16:18 mircea_popescu hence "hot bod" = femeie trupesa. ie, transcendental.
16:19 mircea_popescu whereas the idea of body as in "body politic" is all but dead in english, today.
16:19 mircea_popescu (that'd be the third there)
16:20 trinque hm, yeah. I have trouble with that one.
16:20 trinque might've used "soul" there in the past
16:20 mircea_popescu trinque can you explain the difference between cosmos and universe ?
16:22 trinque causes me to think, but I'll first suppose that the former includes the multitude of things within, and the latter refers to the structure within which those things exist
16:22 trinque but I'm by no means happy with those definitions
16:22 mircea_popescu but can you explain the difference between graph and set ?
16:22 ascii_field mircea_popescu: trup, l0l, труп == corpse
16:23 mircea_popescu ascii_field aha.
16:23 mircea_popescu ascii_field which in romanian is cadavru, mostly.
16:23 ascii_field trupesa <<< ahahahahaha gold
16:24 mircea_popescu literally.
16:24 mircea_popescu it is perhaps antiquated by now. but it's what rubens' good looking women were.
16:24 trinque well, a set would be a rigorously defined category of things sharing properties
16:24 trinque set of real numbers
16:25 assbot [MPEX] [S.MPOE] 3200 @ 0.00071552 = 2.2897 BTC [+]
16:25 trinque a graph is a web of relationships
16:25 trinque I don't know that the relationships need be between things which would be considered to be in the same set
16:25 mircea_popescu trinque quite exactly : a cosmos is the graph of perceptibles. a universe is the set of perceptibles.
16:26 trinque very interesting.
16:26 mircea_popescu and as you might realise, cosmos-focused cultures write fundamentally differfent software from universe-focused culturesa
16:26 mircea_popescu the latter are preoccupied chiefly with entrance barriers, and are debating, predictably, if building a wall across colorado is worth the hassle.
16:27 trinque is this sort of phenomenological thinking vs thinking in terms of theory and structure?
16:27 mircea_popescu as if you know. but hey, the sets are rheaaallly very important to them i tell you.
16:27 mircea_popescu maybe
16:27 mircea_popescu it makes [some kinds of] science easier
16:27 mircea_popescu but those kids are pointedly nothing "social".

16:29 trinque mircea_popescu: hell, my old boss before I struck back out on my own used "cosmic" constantly
16:29 mod6 ascii_field: ok np, seems to be happy again
16:29 mircea_popescu trinque in any case "phenomenological thinking" is a void concept. thinking is not described by the subject it's applied to. you said something roughly like "lighting electrictiy". sure, it can be used to bring light.

16:31 trinque forgets about sessions after a bit, I guess
16:31 trinque mircea_popescu: makes sense. collecting sea shells on a stroll is not thinking
16:32 * trinque happens upon a crab next
16:32 mircea_popescu not the point. the point is that "phenomenology" is directly equivalent with "which discusses things that happen"
16:32 trinque point is that one may think about phenomena, and not with?
16:33 mircea_popescu you can contrast it with ontology, or gnoseology for that matter. and obviously you can build other quite clever sturctures. but yours didn't mean anything is all.
16:33 mircea_popescu well certainly not at the same time
16:33 trinque rather, I suppose I am thinking with phenomena
16:33 * trinque knocks on head
16:34 mircea_popescu whatcha mean ?
