asciilifeform | There was a discussion about this on the OpenBSD misc mailing archives back in 2012: http://marc.info/?t=133961305400003&r=1&w=2 Theo's initial response to the thread, which may help illuminate the situation, was: "Except for the fact that it is bullshit. They started the fork because they got kicked out because one developer (Marco) hired 5 other developers for his startup company, and attempted to hire around 10 other deve | [01:20] |
asciilifeform | lopers in a sneaky and underhanded way. They were told, oh i forget they were "asked", to not tell anyone else in OpenBSD that this was happening, probably because people "including Theo" would be upset. Funny thing is, I've never been upset about the 20+ OpenBSD and ex-OpenBSD developers who now work for google. Previously, many of those developers were in critical positions in the development team. As they were suddenly hire | [01:20] |
asciilifeform | d with such terms and conditions, they became more scarce in OpenBSD --perhaps because they suddenly got real busy with work, but also to avoid telling others that this was happening. Various projects lagged. To avoid telling a lie, they instead chose to not tell the truth. It had effects. It was dishonest of them to not tell their co-developers that they were creating vacuums in the development process. So because of those de | [01:20] |

And it is directed by the guy who hired them in the first place. From where I stand, that is the truth. Yet none of that is in that article, because the truth hurts, doesn't it guys?" | [01:21] |

decimation | asciilifeform: my impression upon listening to police helicopter chatter is tha a majority of the calls for a helicopter come when either a kid wonders off or some perp tries to run from the po-lice | [02:06] |

asciilifeform | don't forget the traffic jobs. | [02:06] |

BingoBoingo | ben_vulpes: Tase is part of why the UNHCR is shitting on USG atm | [02:10] |
ben_vulpes | 2 turbines perpendicular to long axis, with piping adequate to vector the thing around any of its axes. | [02:11] |
decimation | ben_vulpes: was this a remote-control aircraft? | [02:11] |
ben_vulpes | adequate, but also wicked performance gained by virtue of being able to control angle of attack. | [02:11] |
ben_vulpes | decimation: it'd have to have the controller onboard. | [02:12] |
asciilifeform | BingoBoingo: are you familiar with china's reply to 'why did you roll up the (tiananmen) students (molotov-armed, by some reliable accounts - also with grenades) with tanks ?' | [02:12] |
ben_vulpes | probably flight planner too. | [02:12] |
decimation | kinda like the 'osprey' | [02:12] |
asciilifeform | BingoBoingo: indignant (spontaneously or compensated, either) foreigners asked, 'why didn't you tase them, use tear gas' | [02:13] |
Vexual | asciilifeform: is it beacuse they didn't have swarms of irritant devlivery drones? | [02:13] |

Vexual | fair answer, they weren't expecting it | [02:14] |
ben_vulpes | decimation: still gotta get from point a to b - i'd like to see a thing that eschewed flaps for ducted turbine exhaust. | [02:14] |
decimation | ben_vulpes: well, personal jet packs are fun, but not exactly fuel efficient | [02:14] |

assbot | Logged on 26-01-2014 19:43:38; asciilifeform: for instance, they see their country as having 'sat for the same exam' as the ussr, and passed, while the latter flunked. | [02:15] |
ben_vulpes | decimation: that's why i've always advocated going straight up with jets and then drifting sideways for as long as possible | [02:15] |
ben_vulpes | decimation: imagine a really high aspect ratio diamond | [02:15] |
* | assbot removes voice from Vexual | [02:15] |
decimation | that's an interesting idea | [02:15] |
decimation | well, ultimately you could build a rocket that propels you to the high altitude winds of the stratosphere and unfolds massive delicate wings | [02:16] |
ben_vulpes | two turbines aligned perpendicular to the long axis, with vent outputs from the turbines outputs all the way out at the tips of the diamond. | [02:16] |
ben_vulpes | that way you have full control over pitch, roll, yaw | [02:16] |
ben_vulpes | plus your main thrusters for "oomph" | [02:16] |
ben_vulpes | with this kind of design it's trivial to turn end over end and stop extremely quickly. | [02:16] |
decimation | isn't that kinda what the f-117 does | [02:17] |
asciilifeform | ben_vulpes: answer then (i haven't any idea) - why is 'vtol' uncommon today ? | [02:17] |
decimation | my understanding is that it wastes alot of fuel | [02:17] |
ben_vulpes | decimation: not a "thrust reverser": flip the whole beast around its long axis | [02:18] |
ben_vulpes | thrust is now reversed | [02:18] |
ben_vulpes | asciilifeform: vtol requires ducting thrust orthogonally to operating thrust vector | [02:18] |
decimation | ben_vulpes: would the diamond shape generate much lift? | [02:18] |
ben_vulpes | wasteful | [02:18] |
ben_vulpes | decimation: "diamond" << wave hands | [02:18] |
decimation | 'osprey' is attempt to fix that | [02:18] |
ben_vulpes | you can have a symmetric wing | [02:18] |
ben_vulpes | so long as it has ducted thrust at the tips of both the long axis and short axis, you can arbitrarily dictate its angle of attack. | [02:19] |
decimation | yeah I kinda see what you are getting at | [02:19] |
ben_vulpes | (almost needless to say that the vectoring needs to go in both directions) | [02:19] |
ben_vulpes | no gimbals | [02:19] |
ben_vulpes | nothing but exhaust valves and delta-f control systems. | [02:20] |
decimation | no but the thrust control would be complicated | [02:20] |
ben_vulpes | what part? | [02:20] |

ben_vulpes | asciilifeform: that's the only kinda vtol that'll work | [02:21] |
ben_vulpes | decimation: active stabilization. | [02:21] |
decimation | asciilifeform: that's neat, would be useful to have stowed in your submarine | [02:21] |

decimation | apparently they kicked the guy off the project because of his refusal to commit a pronoun patch | [23:53] |
mircea_popescu | decimation you understand what's at stake there right ? | [23:54] |
decimation | now this guy forked node.js | [23:54] |
mircea_popescu | guys like hearn, gmaxwell etc , as well as guys like poettering etc, as well as guys like that derpy chick whatever her name is | [23:54] |
mircea_popescu | are "core contributors" because people count patches | [23:54] |
mircea_popescu | but nobody looks at WHAT THEY WERE. | [23:54] |
mircea_popescu | astroturfing to the max. | [23:54] |
mircea_popescu | so the guy prevented a politruk from getting his "contributions" count up. | [23:54] |
jborkl | Well one of the core contributors for bitcoin flipped hamburgers not too long ago | [23:55] |
mircea_popescu | which is a major problem, because the us nomenklatura is fighting real hard to get "scientific" credetnials. | [23:55] |
decimation | right, but the guy wasn't an employee of joyent | [23:55] |
asciilifeform | nobody looks at WHAT THEY WERE << nobody but a hatecriminal aha. | [23:55] |
