02:10 punkman "Last February, Greek authorities took the extraordinary step of issuing an international arrest warrant for a CIA official the Greeks believe was a key figure in the operation while based in Athens. Unnoticed by the U.S. press, the warrant was a nearly unprecedented action by an allied country. The intelligence official, identified as William George Basil, was accused of espionage and eavesdropping."
02:15 punkman "“The Greeks identified terrorist nets, so NSA put these devices in there and they told the Greeks, OK, when it’s done we’ll turn it off,” said the source. “They put them in the Athens communications system, with the knowledge and approval of the Greek government. This was to help with security during the Olympics.”"

03:41 mircea_popescu BingoBoingo his approach is fundamentally broken, fwiw. "oh, be in shape and you'll..." you'll what ? you'll die, just like everyone else. what's it gonna do, exactly ? he keeps spinning these... what they are is basically "believable superman strips". self-contained submarine-jetfighter except you know, not actually THAT capable, so the weakness of the "self-contained" fantasy is a little harder to put under fire.
03:42 mircea_popescu there's nothing wrong with it, obviously. and the freshness of perspective is welcome, certainly. and i enjoy reading them, generally.
03:42 BingoBoingo Oh his approach is broken as fuck

03:54 mircea_popescu his method works for any arbitrary number, providerd of course they never exist in groups larger than a few hundred and those groups are strictly separated.
03:55 mircea_popescu which is amusingly biographical : fighter circuit consists of groups of a few hundred people (the boxer, his team, people at his club, his social acquaintances etc) that come together under very strictly controlled setting (matches) and otherwise are very strictly separated.
03:55 mircea_popescu this way of life can obviously only exist for as long as you know... it's not universal.
03:55 mircea_popescu but the fantasy is alive and well, hence "hunger games" and whatnot.
03:56 mircea_popescu i expect ~half the various anarcho-this and that, so-and-so-punks etc are pretty much equal to that when it comes to social organizing. "let's all live as dunbar number communes in the desert, inaccessible from one another like."
03:57 mircea_popescu hence the interest of things that are predicated on breaking that imagined wall (say - madmax ?)

05:28 mircea_popescu The following, which gives the flavor, is from Andrea Dworkin, who I gather is a sort of museum-piece siege howitzer for feminism. It's pretty much how they all talk. Listen:
05:28 mircea_popescu "Men use the night to erase us...The annihilation of a woman's personality, individuality, will, character, is prerequisite to male sexuality, and so the night is the sacred time of male sexual celebration, because it is dark and in the dark it is easier not to see: not to see who she is. Male sexuality, drunk on its intrinsic contempt for all life, but especially for women's lives, can run wild, hunt down random victi
05:28 mircea_popescu ms, use the dark for cover, find in the dark solace, sanctuary, cover."
05:29 mircea_popescu incidentally - dvorkin happens to be pretty much correct. male sexuality IS fundamentally contempt for all life. not for life in particular, but for life in the universal, for the life of maggots and cockroaches and everything else teemingly and indistinctly alive. and as such it is both fundamentally important and functionally required,
05:29 mircea_popescu it keeps women from devolving into the wasp nest dvorkin'd live in, of her own devices.
05:30 mircea_popescu that's the gender role since the begining : woman spits out maggots from her maggot hole and man figures out which she may get to keep.
05:34 mircea_popescu "Why is schooling so poor for black children? To begin with, because blacks have little enthusiasm for academics. Blacks have demonstrated for an end to discrimination, more welfare, less brutality by police, greater rights, more pay, and greater respect. They do not march for more homework, harder courses, thicker texts with larger words and smaller pictures."
05:34 mircea_popescu ahaha ok.
05:34 HeySteve ah Fred on everything, he's a very enjoyable read

05:38 HeySteve haven't seen his new stuff on WordPress, think my morning plans just changed
05:38 mircea_popescu it is an astonishingly beautiful point. it generally takes a ~bright~ and very talented slavegirl 18 months or more before her desires go from more chocolate and less beatings to being given harder tasks. and she finds herself in an incredibly powerful, carefully engineered self-improvement-atron.
05:39 mircea_popescu so why are blacks marching for "respect" which can not be given, instead of marching for "more homework" which would instantly, and absolutedly, deliver that respect ? EARNED respect ?
05:39 mircea_popescu "we're poor, hungry and tired" "so what do you want ?" "more work."
05:39 HeySteve perhaps the concept of earned has been destroyed by handouts
05:40 mircea_popescu concepts can't be destroyed.
05:40 HeySteve well, in their minds
05:40 mircea_popescu i guess handouts rot the brain.
05:41 HeySteve "what you subsidise you get more of, what you tax you get less of"

05:50 HeySteve it's related to what you said about gender roles, with no father to do quality control you get bad outcomes
05:51 mircea_popescu so why do you propose to fix what's working ?
05:51 mircea_popescu those women on welfare, with a dozen kids, ARE doing their job, right ? and splendidly at that, natality ain't easy.
05:51 mircea_popescu (and if you think it is - go ahead and try it.)
05:52 HeySteve it's population inflation
05:53 mircea_popescu "inflation" only makes sense in a fungible space.
05:53 mircea_popescu humans aren't fungible.
05:53 mircea_popescu to put that objection in more practically comprehensible terms : if you live in a village of 100, the prettiest girl you ever see in your life will be ugly.
05:53 HeySteve well, dominant ideology says there fungible
05:53 mircea_popescu if you live in a country of 1mn, you'll see some passible ass.
05:53 HeySteve they're*
05:54 mircea_popescu in a world of a billion, you will never ever reach the end of breathtaking.
05:55 HeySteve well, debt-based system requires endless growth, of population and everything else
05:55 mircea_popescu that's a whole other conundrum
05:56 HeySteve so if middle-class aren't reproducing like they used to, subsidise reproduction of lower class
05:56 HeySteve but this debases the "population supply" eventually
05:57 HeySteve I guess you can bring in waves of immigrants too and hope they take out a load of home and car loans
05:58 mircea_popescu reproduction and class are strictly unrelated considerations. in fact, they do not even share any common space at all - there isn't a way to define "class" so that reproduction can be made meaningful or vice-versa.
05:58 HeySteve but the ultimate result is Idiocracy world
05:58 mircea_popescu specifically : do you know how many ottoman sultans had wives ?
05:58 HeySteve no idea, weren't they more about harems?
05:59 mircea_popescu exactly. with the exception of roxy the kidnapped ukrainian, two centuries of high class progeny was carried on the bosoms and thigs of SLAVES.
05:59 mircea_popescu lowest caste women could perfectly finely spawn highest caste men. there's absolutely no relation between class and reproduction.
06:00 HeySteve hmm roxanna, I've heard that story somewhere. I think in an old Sean Connery movie...
06:00 mircea_popescu and she BECAME a free woman. in her lifetime. which is barely lowest -1.
06:00 mircea_popescu roughly equivalent to "naturalized illegal alien" or somesuch today.
06:00 HeySteve mircea_popescu, ok well what I mean is that birth rates are low or negative in developed countries
06:01 mircea_popescu like what, china ?
06:01 mircea_popescu is china developed ?
06:01 HeySteve erm, partially I'd say
06:02 mircea_popescu well then i dunno what you mean. the us has had low birth rate since before it was "developed", ie a century ago. england has had low birth rate throughout it's four centuries of being developed. china had lower birth rate in its undeveloped 80s than it does today.
06:02 HeySteve I think they only hit demographic problems around 2030 or so whereas EU, USA and Japan are already there
06:03 HeySteve well low birth rate is ok imo, it's when it falls below replacement level that ponzis like social security start going bust
06:03 mircea_popescu some races compete on spawn. western european folk (not to be confused with white folk, or for that matter with caucasians) do not.
06:03 HeySteve true, they're more about education
06:03 mircea_popescu there's even a line delineating the "poorly productive females" half of europe, and it was drawn in the 1800s
06:04 mircea_popescu it's not clear that "they're more about education" , or that their cunts just don't work worth a crap.
06:05 mircea_popescu that given, gotta figure something out to survive, and hey, education may be it.
06:06 HeySteve well, there are physiological factors relating to ease of childbirth
06:06 HeySteve and also developmental differences in the offspring
06:06 mircea_popescu yeah. but even the western yurpeans favour narrow waists and wide butts.
06:06 HeySteve also cultural differences in the emphasis placed on parenting and education
06:07 mircea_popescu those differences drastically favour the jews, india and china. perhaps in that order.
06:07 HeySteve of course, state has gotten into the parenting and schooling game in a big way, so things are distorted there
06:08 HeySteve well, it's hard to say how the world will go and which reproductive strategies will be selected for
06:08 mircea_popescu which is perhaps why it's a big idea to stop pestering people.
06:08 mircea_popescu woman has 12 kids and feeds them off 2k income ? good for her.
06:09 HeySteve in a nasty war situation for eg. all that education and child-rearing effort is likely to come to nothing on the battlefield
06:10 mircea_popescu who knows. the venetians spent all their time training the girls to be whores, lost to charles on the field then won in the bedroom.

08:32 mircea_popescu let there be a monotonous measurable system S. let Mi be measurements made at moments-in-time Ti. let average-per-unit-time delta values be reported for each Ti as Ai = (Mi - Mi-1) / (Ti - Ti-1). let an arbitrary "reporting unit" R be defined so that a finite count of Ti fit in each such unit Rj. Let Ais be plainly averaged so that A' = (Ak +...+ Am) / (m-k) where k, m are the first and last i's for Tis fitting in Rj.
08:32 mircea_popescu what would you say the "intuitive meaning" of A'j is ?
