(schwartz above is laurent schwartz, provided an elegant translation of the non-functional nature of dirac's delta by using distribution limits to model it)

00:01

the difference is also imho obvious

00:01

what's it ?

00:02

( the string orchestra not only dun give a flying fuck re parsimony, but quite the opposite , complexity cancer deliberately cultured, breeds grantolade for mediocrities )

00:02

but this is a political consideration.

00:02

should be applied against people not against things.

00:02

there is no separability of the political.

00:03

there is in this sense. if "alcohol" "leads people into sin", then those led into sin are to be hanged ; but alcohol not condemned.

00:03

i am not convinced of there being involvement of 'things' : strings have not even the reality anchor of phlogiston.

00:04

are ~= 'privilegism'

00:04

they're abstract things

00:04

unanchored abstractions, like in schizo patient.

00:04

but those are also still things.

00:04

not concrete in any sense ; and not meaningful either, but still.

00:05

and unlike in schizo patient, crafted with clear political angle.

00:05

"things that i can fuck", "things that i can understand", "things i can talk about". many kinds of things.

00:06

there is also 'things that, if loaded into a head, make it stupider'

00:06

asciilifeform dirac's delta, aslo crafted with clear political angle : to exclude non-diracians from so-and-so set of benches.

00:06

asciilifeform i put it to you, that if such a thing should exist, the head is at fault not the thing.

00:07

do also there exist "bad data" known by that fact that "if put into computer, break it" ? fix the fucking code.

00:07

obscenity laws, banned books, political correctness, antivirus corps etc are all the sorry product of the contrary view.

00:10

the basic sin in strings is same as in microshit and elsewhere: rejection of parsimony

00:10

that way lies daemonology and nothing else.

00:10

so you'll settle on "dirac's delta visibly parsimonious ; string theory not so visibly if at all" ?

00:11

aha

00:11

makes sense.

00:12

at least was obvious attempt. at parsimony.

00:12

i suppose this actually enacts a fundamental of "parsimony" in estimation of all ideal objects.

00:12

"do it or else alf won't like it and mp won't defend you and what else is there for you."

00:12

'do it or you ain't even thinking, but fermenting'

00:13

that also.

00:13

very literally true, too. the act of fermentation as a thermodynamic process is correctly modelled as an increase in entropy ie exactly "that way lies demonology"

00:14

system becomes more complex over time at a steady rate based on temperature / gates' worthless money input.

00:14

exaclty as per the above "ants doing mango pulp powered research"

00:15

they're crankin' out LPUs, wat

btw did i ever print the rated power consumption of a FUCKGOATS ?

13:44

it's 80mA @ 5v .

13:44

( average, naturally )

13:46

in practice, this means that an unpowered usb hub should be able to support 6 of'em without problems.

13:48

that's what you use to test in parallel right?

13:48

mod6: i typically use powered hubs

13:48

one of the items i am currently working on is a fully-automatic FG tester

13:48

at the moment, the process is only semi-automatic.

13:53

linux kernel ( all the varieties i've tried ) seems to have a serious ( and wholly undocumented ) problem with > 7 serial devices .

13:54

transfer rate on 8th and above, slows to a kB/s or so

13:54

( where the buffered bits go -- devil only knows )

13:54

<+asciilifeform> one of the items i am currently working on is a fully-automatic FG tester << ahh cool.

13:55

<+asciilifeform> transfer rate on 8th and above, slows to a kB/s or so << ugh.

13:56

mod6: the interesting bit is the -- afaik -- total absence of public discussion. because -- evidently -- Only A Terrorist (tm)(r) would use 8+ serial devices on pc.

who would you expect to use 8+, the usual appletard/tablethead/who exactly ?

i'm still waiting to hear of somebody other than myself, doing the yoke test

20:42

because -- unsurprise, i hope -- if yer FUCKGOATS were replaced with an identical-looking ftmeadegoats en route, it would pass (perhaps even 'prettier') the dh, ent, etc tests, as the original

20:42

even after being lethally boobytrapped.

20:43

another suggested experiment for FG owners is http://btcbase.org/log/2017-08-24#1703042 .

20:43

Logged on 2017-08-24 17:16 asciilifeform: btw you can make this right now by attaching 2 hg tilt switches to a fg , 1 on each end ( b/w the middle and the +v pins )

20:47

^ incidentally : if you can get hall-effect switches, these will work even better ( the important thing is for whatever switch to be 'bounce-less', contact-bouncing creates predictable, in theory, temporal patterns )

20:49

( back to yoke test -- it is somewhat tricky, you need ~very~ good cabling, and very short, for the clocks to sync properly )

20:51

FG-II rng will prolly have 4 pins, 1 for shifter pulse, to make yoking ultra-easy at ~0 cost.

20:54

ANOTHER useful advice to every fg owner is to verify that the cpld shitstream in yer unit, is in fact == to the one asciilifeform signed.

20:54

asciilifeform: so far, i've only gone to the extent of unplugging both RNG-TWs and ensuring that the SAD lamp does what it should.

20:54

i'd be surprised if anybody's, at this early point, isn't... but this is by far the cheapest and easiest method for enemy to tamper, and leaves 0 physical trace

Monte Carlo value for Pi is 3.141491330 (error 0.00 percent).

20:56

i see 5 ... 95 range approx. flatly.

20:56

!~calc (3.141491330 - pi)/pi * 100

20:56

mircea_popescu: (3.141491330 - pi)/pi * 100 = -0.0032252300334771494

20:57

!~calc pi

20:57

mircea_popescu: pi = 3.141592653589793

23:39

ben_vulpes: Prefab strip mall has shorter walk to coffee shop, provided a coffee data tenant rents space

23:41

it is a sad truth that all data centers i have been in have sadder coffee production facilities than even starbucks.

23:41

also use windows. also in usshitistan.

23:45

Really [coffee shop][datacenter (studio apartment carveout)][scooter dealer] is imagined layout

23:45

for the moment

23:47

If locale has enough people who feel entitled to protective road cage to justify 4-wheel dealership, locale prolly sucks for building building

23:50

under that analysis, should probably do fork/heavy equipment/rental+dealership instead of scooter dealership

23:50

Nah, the customers there are demanding and suspicious. Not to mention keeps existential threats to datacenter too close.

23:51

Re-reading of the moment http://trilema.com/2014/the-problem-of-enforcement/

23:51

existential threats, yes, but in their docile state!

23:52

ben_vulpes: Few have meaningful locks on them. Only docile because passerby have anxiety about starting up unattented equipment.

23:53

Anyways, it's hard to meaningfully lock a door when excavator sleeps within 100 yards of door. Doesn't leave much time to take position with anti-materiel rifle before it closes range

23:54

lol ok ok

23:54

While scooters produce delicious 2-stroke exhaust and help the pobre commute within their substantial means

23:54

not like it would be hard to wire keypads into them if they still don't have meaningful locks.
