10:22 mircea_popescu exactly what the fuck is going to be "fixed" in this necessary situation ? time to face the music : a large number of people is NOT a business value. it is a business cost.
10:23 mircea_popescu NOT having many users is as valuable as NOT having a fucktarded US-like VC on your board, or NOT having a fatass woman with a history of USG employment in "human services" roles in your staff.

10:26 mircea_popescu perfectly legitimate and certainly useful behaviour - not least of all because automated systems as well as most people will select X out of a set of A=B=C=D, X = A+i.
10:26 mircea_popescu and because they're all bound by the same ideology, it is trivial to produce the i they can never print ; whereas because they are all subject ot the same pressure, it is nigh on impossible for dA vs dB to be anywhere as large as i.

10:57 mircea_popescu in ~principle~ the fact i can't compile the kernel with any random compiler i wrote myself is an argument that linux = windows, ftr.
10:58 asciilifeform in the same way that me slipping on the pavement is = to being run over by a bus, yes.
10:59 mircea_popescu it's deeper than that, imo. the point here is that bitcoin is not making any attempt to limit ownership of its tokens by say, usg agents.

17:15 assbot ... ( http://bit.ly/1KewmSd )
17:16 mircea_popescu to explain : on one hand the slave is put in circumstances (be it clothing, or accoutrements, or whatnot) that make it the focus of attention, necessarily. you can't do most of those things permanently, as a thing. to understand why, imagine you'd make a silo full of puppies. how long before it is a silo full of rotting meat ?
17:17 asciilifeform ugh
17:17 mircea_popescu nevertheless, on the other hand the theoretical structure of the relationship is exactly opposite to this reality.
17:17 mircea_popescu and hence, there's a problem!
17:17 asciilifeform eventually ~everything~ is a silo of meat.
17:17 asciilifeform only question of timescale.
17:17 asciilifeform thermodynamics takes mercy on no one.
17:18 mircea_popescu sure, but that's a consideration on a different timescale.
17:18 asciilifeform how's that
17:19 mircea_popescu what do you mean how. yes all puppies eventually die, but that's not what we're talking about.
17:19 mircea_popescu you have a maximal puppy density that allows the biomass in question to stay puppy-shaped
17:23 asciilifeform hard to argue with this
17:23 asciilifeform but how does it tie to the thread..?
17:23 asciilifeform am i thick?
17:24 * ben_vulpes would appreciate slightly less heavyweight metaphors too

17:24 asciilifeform ah!

17:24 asciilifeform and here i was breaking my brain.
17:24 mircea_popescu anyway. maximal density is the killer. yes, obedient slave takes whipping. there's a maximal % of her time she can spend being whipped.
17:26 mircea_popescu "In a rare bid for sanity, the Harford County School District had cancelled all field trips for students into Baltimore, as it is clearly an unsafe environment.

17:26 mircea_popescu ere else, but in Harm City."
17:26 mircea_popescu such hate speech.

17:27 mircea_popescu asciilifeform i don't believe in externalities. so, no.
17:27 mircea_popescu or mebbe we're not talking about the same thing. hm.

17:28 asciilifeform if she requires more whipping than is readily available
17:28 mircea_popescu ah ah. but i was discussing recreational whipping not educational whipping.
17:28 asciilifeform ah!
17:31 asciilifeform i can't even tell, what is she doing

17:32 mircea_popescu but the idea is see, he's hanging out, the mistress sleeping (as if any woman sleeps in garter belt and high heels) and the slave doing doing houseworkl
17:32 mircea_popescu with a fucking wrecking ball attached.
17:33 asciilifeform i immediately thought that this picture was not intended to represent 'typical day in the life' but rather is a boschian thing
17:33 mircea_popescu leaving aside the cramped environment : yes, woman can be made to do either. but it wouldn't be fucking sleep or fucking work. it'd be THIS. and this is not life, this is THIS.
17:33 mircea_popescu it is very mujch a boschian thing, specifically because of this tension.
17:34 asciilifeform aha, that much was clear
17:34 mircea_popescu it has the unmistakable immaturity of virginal youth, unaware that pegs are round, holes are square.
17:34 mircea_popescu you know, people who never kept slavegirls could conceivably dream up this alt-reality where slave girls go like this.
17:35 mircea_popescu i suppose if we must have an aesop, someone who wasn';t ever gavin might imagine things about how being gavin is.
17:35 mircea_popescu but still ... the pegs and the holes.
17:35 asciilifeform it did not even occur to me that anyone would think this.
17:35 mircea_popescu i know plenty of people who think exactly this.
17:35 mircea_popescu ~exactly~ this. and very much don't want to think otherwise, either.
17:36 asciilifeform if i show a picture of, e.g., chess players, what , viewer will assume that they play from dawn to dusk until they drop, and while cleaning the house, eating, shitting ?
17:36 mircea_popescu it is possible.
17:36 mircea_popescu if shown a cheesecake picture, they DO in fact imagine that the woman looks like that from dawn to dusk, while shitting, etc.
17:36 asciilifeform i don't even sadomasochate but i always assumed that it was a hobby like any other
17:37 mircea_popescu what shitting! cheesecake chicks don't even fart.
17:37 asciilifeform you do it for some time and then do other thing
17:37 mircea_popescu not quite.
17:38 asciilifeform well sure, there is a certain amount of 'like sledding? like pulling sled too!'
17:38 asciilifeform gotta set up household for the pets, etc?
17:39 mircea_popescu not what i meant. depends on what variant one entertains etc, but there is such a thing where the slave's the slave throughout the day, do what she may.
17:40 asciilifeform aha but still this involves more housework than walking with weights, i'd imagine ?
17:41 mircea_popescu yeah i dunno why you'd be walking with weighs, big calves aren't particularly in demand.
17:41 asciilifeform but i think i see where mircea_popescu is going, this is the old 'thirsty man thinks he can drink the sea' theorem
17:42 mircea_popescu well... i guess. more akin to "boy sees no use for veggies, they're getting in the way of cake"
17:43 asciilifeform more of how the boy might have problems grasping why his parents do anything other than eating cake
17:43 mircea_popescu quite!
17:43 mircea_popescu that does it.
17:43 mircea_popescu i suspect every youthful generation's conviction the previous people are dumb and generally suck has a lot to do with this.
17:43 asciilifeform and it does not take a heroic amount of introspection to find oneself int his picture
17:44 asciilifeform i, for instance, am fixated on free time and escape from workschwitz
17:44 asciilifeform can't imagine what i might possibly want, if had that
17:44 mircea_popescu that's not bad caker.
17:45 asciilifeform imagine if all the cake you ever got to eat was, say, 20 grams max
17:45 asciilifeform so you know what it tastes like and that's it.
17:46 mircea_popescu aha
17:47 * asciilifeform had not done what most folks think of as 'vacation' since 2011
17:48 mircea_popescu i never did that.
17:48 mircea_popescu vacation fucking sucks.
17:49 jurov when i was a kid i have imagined adults fulfill their desires in some secret magical way, so that they don't eat cake all the time
17:49 asciilifeform mircea_popescu was never a slave, so probably can't even conceptualize it
17:49 mircea_popescu no but seriously... spend some time doing SOMETHING OTHER than what you're doing ? dude, if i thought this is a good idea... i would just stop doing what i;m doing. that day. forever. wtf.
17:50 mircea_popescu jurov not a bad working model for a preteen huh
17:50 asciilifeform aha because mircea_popescu has a choice !

18:08 mircea_popescu most software is never fucking read.
18:08 BingoBoingo Depends where you are how many doctors notes get read by lawyers
18:10 asciilifeform mircea_popescu is still thinking like a normal person in some honest non-soviet economy
18:11 asciilifeform where things such as doctors and accountants exist
18:11 mircea_popescu i did say civilisation.
18:11 asciilifeform i'd like to visit civilization.
18:11 mircea_popescu for the record, the us is an example of nothing and a measuring stick for nothing,
18:11 mircea_popescu ghana is more relevant to any discussion than the united states.
18:11 asciilifeform iirc ghana, like many abject shitholes, is 100% usgtronic
18:12 mircea_popescu ghana existed long before the british were invented.
18:12 asciilifeform iroquois also existed
18:12 asciilifeform but modern usa is not them.
18:13 asciilifeform ditto ghana.
18:13 mircea_popescu well technically... the arabs conquered them.
18:13 mircea_popescu but anyway, one of the few and far between actual cultures in africa.
18:14 mircea_popescu (ftr, the camel is not native to africa. was introduced, with an effect similar to the introduction of metalworking in europe)
18:14 asciilifeform but mircea_popescu is right, the sheer phantasmagoric disconnect from physical reality in usaschwitz has no analogue anywhere else in known spacetime
18:15 mircea_popescu a dream, no matter how shared, is not a thing, nor could be a thing, and so does not matter to any actual thing.
18:15 asciilifeform interestingly, camel was introduced to the americas in early 19th c
18:15 asciilifeform and even took hold
18:15 asciilifeform but for some reason nobody rides them
18:15 asciilifeform (i am told that there are places where they can be.. hunted)
18:16 mircea_popescu camel needs a lot of training to be ridden
18:16 asciilifeform more than horse ?
18:16 mircea_popescu think bronco busting, and then think camel is roughly 2x the size.
18:17 asciilifeform ah this yes
18:17 mircea_popescu much more than horse. for one thing, horse loves people.
18:17 mircea_popescu camel, like mule, doesn';t really give a shit.
18:19 mircea_popescu incidentally, the third person in the monty python sketch was whistler. "I shall be born when and where I want, and I do not choose to be born in Lowell." whistler.
