10:40 pete_dushenski "Michael Norton, a psychologist at the Harvard Business School, has found that on average, whites now view discrimination against members of their own race as a larger problem than discrimination against blacks."
10:40 pete_dushenski ""What Trump is tapping into is the mindset of a zero-sum game," Norton said, which he called an "intuitive" way of looking at the economy and society."
10:40 pete_dushenski ""It's hard to imagine that if we're eating a pizza, that adding more people would somehow give us more pizza. It takes a much-longer-term perspective," Norton said."
10:42 pete_dushenski haha mkay. low-class whiteys don't have enough 'long-term perspective' and fear for their own survival in the face of a DIMINISHING trough from which MORE cattle are to eat. and this is what passes for 'harvard research' ?
10:42 pete_dushenski https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/wonk/wp/2015/10/15/i-asked-psychologists-to-analyze-trump-supporters-this-is-what-i-learned/

10:44 pete_dushenski "New York is by no means Mafia-free. But the mob isn’t what it once was, enfeebled by decades of police crackdowns, media attention and old age. The Mafia has been relegated largely to the realm of entertainment, just as Manhattan’s Italian culture has become a tourist attraction."
10:45 pete_dushenski heh. even the mafiosos in american 'go metatard' at some point.
10:45 mircea_popescu incidentally, re the eventual republican reimplementation of pgp : other than the -a armored mode, i want it to also have a -w armored mode. in this mode, it should load a list of lines from a file, modulo the message by the line count of that file, replace every numeric unit with the respective line,
10:45 pete_dushenski just how toxic is that place ?
10:45 mircea_popescu meh this is getting too complicated. ima trilema it.
10:45 mircea_popescu pete_dushenski except it doesn't grow the god damned pizza.
10:45 mircea_popescu adding more people not only reduces the available slices through them eating it,
10:45 mircea_popescu IT ACTUALLY REDUCES THE QUALITY OF THE PIZZA ITSELF.
10:46 pete_dushenski this, trumpists/trumpets deeply grok.
10:46 mircea_popescu the options are either hand-made pizza out of wheat flour with actual anchovies, olives and proper cheese, split in 8
10:46 mircea_popescu or else a slab of wonderbread dipped in palm oil with petrocheese and some fenyl-flavouring split in 32
10:47 mircea_popescu yes, arguably the individual wonderbread slice is slightly larger in some measurement than the pizza slice.
10:47 pete_dushenski in calories !
10:47 mircea_popescu the only problem with this "abundance perspective" being thgat the measure often is something as retarded as "how large the grease spot on the paper is"
10:47 mircea_popescu shit, i never even knew pizza went in paper in the first place.
10:48 pete_dushenski "you need xxxxx calories per day to be happy, so that's what yer gettin' "

10:52 assbot Logged on 28-11-2015 16:33:08; mircea_popescu: anyway, my data seems to suggest that the enemy will be pushing a fork before the decade's out. whether we at that time have a counterfork ready or not is pretty much what decides the fate of the free world.
10:53 mircea_popescu it's complicated.

11:23 mircea_popescu as long as she sucks the cock and you buy her food, who the fuck cares what you call it.

11:35 mircea_popescu there is absolutely no reason for gossipd to work on a push model of data transfer.

12:23 mircea_popescu i answered even
12:23 * ascii_field reads
12:23 ascii_field ahahaha
12:24 ascii_field imho stego by its very nature ought to be a personal and various thing
12:24 ascii_field rather than standardized in any sense
12:24 mircea_popescu we gonna talk here or there
12:24 ascii_field hm
12:24 mircea_popescu i suppose here wins. anyway : the proposed scheme has exactly the advantage of alphabet
12:25 mircea_popescu which is to say : it provides a clean, standard interface that preserves personal and various thing entirely.
12:25 mircea_popescu in so doing it actually promotes both personal-ness and variety.
12:25 ascii_field my ancient version of this used a modulated shannonizer
12:26 mircea_popescu one could in principle do exactly what FM does to radio waves.
12:26 ascii_field where the input skews the probabilities
12:26 ascii_field aha heterodyne
12:26 mircea_popescu have an underlying markov process as carrier wave
12:26 ascii_field that was how i did it
12:26 ascii_field pretty obvious, no ?
12:26 mircea_popescu apparently.
12:26 ascii_field good student project btw
12:30 jurov i'd do it like - with every party agree on a different corpus to be fed to shannonizer

12:33 BingoBoingo fxd
12:33 ascii_field iirc i even left one of the chaps with a suitable plug
12:33 ascii_field (i think it was mircea_popescu )
12:33 mircea_popescu they got parrots in argentina you know
12:33 ascii_field btw i had a fella ask me about rng at a job interview thing
12:34 mircea_popescu BingoBoingo now there's no paragraphs ?!
12:34 ascii_field he asked 'i get 7.9999999 bts/byte from urandom, why not from yours' and we had a chat about the idiocy of whitening
12:34 mircea_popescu he could get 8.5 bts/byte from urandom for the same money.
12:34 ascii_field aha
12:35 ascii_field i told him 'try feeding nulls through aes with null iv and pipe into ent'
12:35 ascii_field b3st 3ntr0p1
12:35 ascii_field of same kind, aha.
12:35 BingoBoingo fxd, I think
12:40 ascii_field http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=29-11-2015#1333508 << this borders on the genius of the proverbial 'polish space program' - 'we will fly to the sun, not the moon! -- but sun is hot! -- we will fly at night'
12:40 assbot Logged on 29-11-2015 16:36:02; mircea_popescu: what ddos ? your node works exactly like your home nat router, only allowing outbound connections.
12:40 ascii_field ~somebody~ has to permit inbound. and he's the ddos target.
12:40 ascii_field ~connections~ are idiocy and ought to be dispensed with entirely.
12:40 mircea_popescu ascii_field why ?
12:40 ascii_field single-packet messages, with no ack.
12:41 mircea_popescu so ? i dun follow.
12:41 ascii_field because a node of whom you are not a friend ought not to be distinguishable in any way whatsoever from an empty wall socket.
12:41 mircea_popescu exactly.
12:42 ascii_field ANY node
12:42 mircea_popescu quite.
12:42 ascii_field then to whom do you intend to make outbound connection ?
12:42 mircea_popescu that's your business.
12:42 ascii_field whoever accepts tcp connections is ddosable.
12:43 mircea_popescu so... every website on the internet. ok. so ?
12:43 ascii_field regardless of why or form whom he accepts them.
12:43 ascii_field aha
12:43 mircea_popescu so what's the problem you see ?
12:44 ascii_field that tcp is retarded ?
12:44 ascii_field because stateful
12:44 ascii_field and permits all-comers to cost you memory (for however short a time) and not only cpu cycles.
12:44 mircea_popescu looky. a gossipd based on the concept that you keep firewalled clients at home and they connect to a random pile of websites, which simply respond with pgp -w text
12:44 mircea_popescu is both a lot more feasible and way cheaper than the alternative "we'll lay our own cable fu"
12:44 ascii_field no need to lay own cable
12:45 ascii_field (see old thread)
12:45 mircea_popescu link ?
12:45 ascii_field but 'handful of servers' is what we have today, and it falls over when enemy so much as sneezes at it.
12:45 ascii_field 'server' is a braindamaged concept, period
12:46 mircea_popescu leaving aside the theory. the model here contemplated is actually workable.
12:46 mircea_popescu nobody cares if "fall over" because there's so damned many of them.
12:46 mircea_popescu you can use fucking twitter for all the difference it makes.
12:46 ascii_field not to mention the www stack (apache et all) is a massive turd
12:46 mircea_popescu you don't run it yourself.
12:46 mircea_popescu make a subreddit.
12:47 mircea_popescu make a facebook account.
12:47 ascii_field aha i see where mircea_popescu was going
12:47 mircea_popescu bleed tghem dry.
12:47 ascii_field this is baked
12:47 ascii_field malware c&c machinery uses this method.
12:47 mircea_popescu right.
12:47 mircea_popescu !up ascii_field
12:47 ascii_field one of the caveats is that 'pull'-anything is susceptible to engineered slowdown
12:48 mircea_popescu to put this morning's set of realisations in a simple, clear package : making a battleship is nowhere near as good as making a battleship out of ustard decapitated heads.
12:48 mircea_popescu sure, it is.
12:48 mircea_popescu the alternative is susceptible to filtering on infrastructure you don't own.
12:48 ascii_field this is sorta like blockchain telegraph - works great if you don't need frequent/real-time updates
12:49 ascii_field and the passive nodes are kept abreast of the 'drop site' list
12:49 mircea_popescu seems the b-a works just fine with logline refs.
12:49 mircea_popescu if anything real-time is truly DETRIMENTAL, if my mpex and our ba experience has taught us anything.
12:49 mircea_popescu should be there in days rather than yerars, yes. should be there in microseconds rather than seconds ? mno.
12:50 ascii_field aha usenet
12:50 mircea_popescu aha.
12:51 mircea_popescu thinking about it twitter is particularly apt for this job.
12:51 * ascii_field actually prefers usenet-style conversation, and was resistant to b-a-ization initially because of it
12:51 mircea_popescu what's the difference you'd say ?
12:51 mircea_popescu line rather than paragraph ?
12:51 ascii_field mircea_popescu: sorta like the difference between meat chess and epistolary chess
12:52 mircea_popescu the only problem with that thing is that IT makes emotion unreadable
12:52 mircea_popescu no, it's not "the internet". it's the usenet/bbs/forum model.
12:52 ascii_field aha
12:55 ascii_field deedbot- has been unhappy lately ?

16:52 BingoBoingo !up bad_duck
16:55 ben_vulpes ascii_field: i believe that to be major-mode dependent. see 'backends'.
16:56 ascii_field ben_vulpes: which ones have you tried ?
16:56 ascii_field ctags is worthless
16:56 ascii_field (if i can't define a symbol and have it IMMEDIATELY typecompletable, it's shit)

16:58 phf ascii_field: i believe if you want to get company mode working with C++ you have to muck around with either clang or CEDET

17:02 ascii_field and that what we have now makes the same amount of sense as having a separate gas and brake pedal for each of 4 wheels in a car.
17:02 ben_vulpes ascii_field: only the clojure mode.
17:04 phf ascii_field: i don't know about company mode, but builtin dabbrev-expand will pull from current buffer, other buffers or else TAGS, so it sort of satisfies your request for "what i just typed should be available". but your point stands, this is not to run things

17:05 ascii_field for another thing, i don't ever want to have to think about the 'tags'

20:28 kakobrekla http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=29-11-2015#1333627 < the thread is all over the place. for certain, not all, things i find this worse than the shape of a classic forum.
20:28 assbot Logged on 29-11-2015 17:51:30; mircea_popescu: line rather than paragraph ?
20:34 mircea_popescu as far as im concerned the classic forum is unusable because it is perfectly unable to handle quotation. it's the same exact problem of "inline" comment display for wordpress : you end up either with an arbitrary node depth or else single character lines
20:34 mircea_popescu suppose i quote two different things respondent. the thread should now split, as a tree. it does not do that.
20:34 mircea_popescu if it doesn't do that might as well forget the pretense and do this.
20:36 kakobrekla it shouldnt split (although it can be) and as it is now it cant ever split.
20:36 danielpbarron that's what i liked about twitter-- the forking of threads and chaining of replies. These days it's been ruined with some algorithmic sorting
20:37 kakobrekla here have b-a, 100 megs of text thread. yay.
20:38 danielpbarron irc is an old favorite of mine. Been using it since 2004 (although i took a several years break from 2008 till i found this place)
20:39 danielpbarron still have all my old logs burned on a cd

20:40 assbot dpaste: 1102V9J: qntra, by jurov ... ( http://bit.ly/1TmaKmA )
20:41 kakobrekla it was acceptable in the old days of b-a when we werent actually been doing anything. now theres n projects being juggled and its a pain.
20:41 * mircea_popescu kinda likes it.
20:41 kakobrekla yeah i know you like pain.
20:41 mircea_popescu i mean, for as long as there isn't a solution, the best thing to do is not pretend to solve the problem
20:41 kakobrekla especially inflicted on others. :p
20:41 mircea_popescu lmao
20:44 kakobrekla before a solution is found, the problem needs recognition, no?
20:44 mircea_popescu certainly.
20:45 mircea_popescu i confess i dunno what the problem is. this certainly should not mean no problem exists.
20:46 mircea_popescu one thing i can see : the conversation graph is incredibly complex. there's two practical ways to present it : either as a flat file without any structure other than what's provided by the author ; or else as a properly restated graph, which will do a lot of node replication as oyu have to unwind the rat's nest of reference.

20:46 mircea_popescu as far as the later thing is concerned, it's not clear it actually is any better (because you will necessarily have to read EVEN MORE), we know from experience that machines can not do this, and contemporary semiotics seems to indicate the task is intractable in principle.
20:47 kakobrekla the problem is poor separation of threads. i have been actually thinking about this a few weeks ago and though i might add forward linking to the logs, along with the existing back linking
20:47 mircea_popescu if you recall we were toying with the idea of getting someone to summarize the logs. fluffypony even offered to finance it. nobody could be found.
20:48 mircea_popescu the recent experience of gabrielradio trying on the (imo easier) task of translating trilema articles makes me think it will NEVER be done.
20:48 kakobrekla not all problems are solvable by slaves.
20:48 mircea_popescu but the idea of forward links is good i think
20:48 kakobrekla unless 'rabotnik'.
20:51 mircea_popescu the thing is tho, from my own experience reading logs, every time i try to jump forward in time i end up with a mess. works much better for me to read them serially and think about it that way. which is why i parse the logs to this day, years later.
20:51 mircea_popescu but who knows
20:53 mircea_popescu anyway, slaves schmlaves. i tried to do it myself, the summarization of logs, gave up in anger.
20:54 kakobrekla summary isnt really the cure here
20:55 kakobrekla say i wanna reread everything that was said about 'v', i have two options;
20:55 kakobrekla 1. read last 30 megs of logs
20:55 kakobrekla 2. go fuck myself
20:55 kakobrekla 2 is actually 1 in another words.
20:57 mircea_popescu if you had a summary you would in principle be able to.
20:57 mircea_popescu think the old system of "library cards" or "study notes"
20:57 mircea_popescu which is how intellectual life organized the large conversation back when people still had an intellectual life.
20:57 kakobrekla id be able to tune it down to 10 megs instead of 30. out of 100k needed.
20:57 mircea_popescu no, the idea is you keep your own lecture notes, which are not necessarily equal to another's.
20:58 mircea_popescu uni professor comes before the class of 100 kids, reads the 30mb of log,
20:58 mircea_popescu this results in 100 mutually incomparable sets of 1-3 mb notes.
20:58 mircea_popescu the total size has balooned but each person has their own comfortable paths cut through the field, like so many mice.

20:59 mircea_popescu but so stated (say i wanna reread everything that x), the problem is obvious to me too. we're in danger of losing it.
21:02 kakobrekla better comparison than professor seems to me a giant book that contains everything without any order or index or chapters or ...
21:02 kakobrekla not even the professor can use it!
21:04 mircea_popescu myeah.
21:04 mircea_popescu certainly all sorts of buried gems in there by now that all of 3 people maybe know about.
21:05 mircea_popescu pete_d has been trying in his own way to fight this i gather, with mixed results.
21:08 assbot [MPEX] [S.MPOE] 11550 @ 0.00050121 = 5.789 BTC [-] {3}
21:12 phf i keep bookmarks around, per subject that i'm interested in, or mp/ascii dialogues that i might want to reread. a solution that i was thinking of hacking up in my own system is ranged highlights, basically same idea as on trilema, but instead of point-to-point it's entries and ranges. so on subject of v the link becomes entries=333,350-380,490-492,500-505. perhaps that sort of bookmarks can be shared, to have an illuminated log
21:20 kakobrekla the best way to keep a house tidy is not messing it up in the first place
21:20 assbot [MPEX] [S.MPOE] 28002 @ 0.0005096 = 14.2698 BTC [+] {4}
21:21 kakobrekla second best is to have a house keeper, but that has failed.
21:24 mircea_popescu kakobrekla in general the housewives that succeed in their life's work of "getting everyone to stop messing up the house" are ~a year away from having to decide if they wish to file for divorce or just come to terms with the fact that the husband lives with a younger woman now.
21:26 kakobrekla you dont have to get married, you can just pay.
21:26 mircea_popescu i don't mean you!
21:27 mircea_popescu heck, are you even a woman ?!
