mircea_popescu | "Gail insinuates that Albert Bates is an environmentalist hypocrite because he flies a lot. Albert does travel a lot but goes to great personal effort to physically mitigate carbon from his travel footprint, and this is obvious from even a cursory glance at his website. Overall, he is very much carbon-negative, while Gail goes on aimless drives through the countryside in her gigantic, gas- | [02:01] |

mircea_popescu | asciilifeform what the fuck is going on in this guy's head, engaging in a debate on these terms ? | [02:01] |
mircea_popescu | what happened to "who the fuck even cares" already. | [02:01] |
mircea_popescu | "Her blog's comments section is a sort of Land of the Lost: people who inhabit the comments sections of unmoderated blogs, and who are perpetually miffed that no half-decent blog will post their comments." | [02:02] |
mircea_popescu | fuck him. the pretense that liars & scammers, which is without exception anyone who fucking "moderates" are somehow ethically superior to actual people is morally offensive. | [02:02] |

asciilifeform | mircea_popescu: orlov is an incorrigible believer in an impending pollutionocalypse. | [02:04] |
mircea_popescu | even if he were. | [02:05] |
mircea_popescu | it's still not germane to the discussion. | [02:05] |
asciilifeform | actually it is. he started censoring comments when noticed that 99 out of 100 are 'wake up, climatocalypse is a sham' | [02:06] |
mircea_popescu | soo ? | [02:07] |
mircea_popescu | of course he started censoring once he didn't like what he was hearing. | [02:07] |
asciilifeform | right | [02:07] |
asciilifeform | he's one of the folks who only like conversation on their own terms. | [02:07] |
mircea_popescu | that can't be a matter of content. | [02:09] |
* | assbot removes voice from iluvfedoras | [02:09] |
mircea_popescu | This is why every successful community I've looked at knows how to exclude (shun, expel) people. Every successful community jealously safeguards its separateness from the surrounding society. This is critical to their survival and for achieving much better outcomes for their members than the surrounding society. | [02:10] |
mircea_popescu | see, on some level he understands this. expel PEOPLE. | [02:10] |
mircea_popescu | you can't fucking expel ideas. | [02:10] |
* | assbot removes voice from moiety | [02:10] |
asciilifeform | i'm not even 100% convinced that orlov actually believes in anthropogenic climatocalypse. what is more or less certain is that he wants industrial civilization off the gameboard, asap. and is willing to support just about any ideology which promises to help the process along. | [02:10] |
mircea_popescu | kinda naive approach. there's nothing worse than winning with the wrong people for the wrong reasons. | [02:11] |
mircea_popescu | that's how all the "worse than before" stories work. | [02:11] |
asciilifeform | his 'collapse' writings are excellent in many ways, but one gets an inescapable feeling that the 'doctor' is not really interested in curing the 'patient.' instead, he would like to see the patient - and his children, and his children's children - croak asap. | [02:11] |

asciilifeform | even with an incurable patient - the approach is rather irritating. | [02:12] |
asciilifeform | orlov's 'patient' is all of technological civilization, roughly steam age and up | [02:12] |
mircea_popescu | also kinda naive. | [02:13] |

asciilifeform | mircea_popescu: i suspect that orlov's personal wank fantasies have clouded his mind. e.g., he proclaimed, gleefully, that the uninhabitable wastelands of russia will become arable land due to warmocalypse, and the era of anglo-yoke will give way to a russian mega-hegemony | [02:16] |

BingoBoingo | fallout prolly ought to get its own category for its inconvenience | [02:24] |
mircea_popescu | what inconvenience exactly ? suppose the current level of radiation in japan becomes worldwide. | [02:26] |
mircea_popescu | first off, that'd take very much fissile material. | [02:26] |
mircea_popescu | second off, it's fucking difficulkt to achieve uniformity. most likely you'll have to get peaks and lows, needing even more fissiles. | [02:26] |
mircea_popescu | and the result ? not even 1% culling of the herd ? | [02:26] |
mircea_popescu | some of the weak and shitty die, life expectancy a little shorter ? | [02:27] |
mircea_popescu | sounds hardly threatening. | [02:27] |

mircea_popescu | radiation produces more random. | [02:28] |
asciilifeform | BingoBoingo: except in extreme cases (fissiles concentrating up the foodchain, zapping anything more interesting than a slime mold) what you get is precisely 'more stupid' - that is, a population heavy on the young. | [02:28] |
mircea_popescu | basically nuclear weapons, as well as tomahawks, aircraft carriers and so on are further elements in a class of weapons inaugurated by the byzantines, with their greek fire : | [02:28] |
mircea_popescu | the weapons which the eventual loser uses. | [02:29] |
mircea_popescu | asciilifeform a population heavy on the young is not more stupid, it's more strippers. | [02:29] |
BingoBoingo | The eventual loser doesn't always allow the winners victory unscathed | [02:29] |
mircea_popescu | and better strippers, at that. | [02:29] |
mircea_popescu | BingoBoingo the winner wins specifically because doesn't care about scathing. | [02:29] |
asciilifeform | mircea_popescu: mostly because they tend to get discovered close to an empire's peak complexity (i.e. collapse prelude) | [02:29] |
mircea_popescu | that's what makes greek fire et all the weaponry of the losers. | [02:30] |
mircea_popescu | asciilifeform debatable which is the chain of causality. imo it's just because they promote a wrong approach to fighting. | [02:30] |
mircea_popescu | think of the young russki kids and their street culture. who is going to be respected who doesn't know to take a punch ? | [02:30] |
asciilifeform | greek fire << interestingly, i recall that opponents captured siphons, couldn't figure out how to work them, threw them out | [02:30] |
mircea_popescu | no matter how many he may throw. | [02:30] |
mircea_popescu | "didn't care enough to use them" | [02:31] |
mircea_popescu | germania and gaul are still fucking germanic, notwithstanding all the genocides cesar & co drove there. | [02:31] |
asciilifeform | zulus, amerinds, etc eagerly picked up rifles, however. so this tells us something. | [02:32] |
mircea_popescu | and the latin influence comes from the veterans that settled there, much like a us army guy retiring to vietnam | [02:32] |

kakobrekla | i dont know and i cant test it now. due to lack of space its not in operational mode. | [04:12] |

cazalla | i don't know how anyone can have animals in their house tbh | [04:39] |
cazalla | then again, i eat my pets | [04:40] |
BingoBoingo | moiety: I was going for a walk at about 2 in the morning and some stranger yells "Is this your dog". The dog in question is a brown bull mastiff puppy about 24 inches tall at the withers. Dude has it leashed to his belt says it ran in front of his truck.... | [04:40] |
moiety | @disqualifications: Any dog that attempts to bite the judge.<< lololololololol | [04:40] |
artifexd | Different strokes for different folks. My wife feels the same way. She deals with it though. | [04:40] |

cazalla | rabbits, manuls, anything | [04:41] |
artifexd | Manuls!?!?! | [04:41] |
artifexd | lol | [04:41] |
moiety | BingoBoingo: omg that man needs eaten imo | [04:42] |

cazalla | moiety: seriously though, rabbits | [04:42] |
moiety | cazalla: GASP manuls would leave you bald bfore you had a mouthful! | [04:42] |
moiety | rabbits really? | [04:43] |
artifexd | When I was growing up, I had a pet rabbit named Ghost. One day I come home from school and we have soup for lunch. It was different. After dinner I asked what it was. My dad replied "Ghost soup". Sure enough. I had just eaten my pet. | [04:43] |
moiety | theres nmillions round here but people just dont eat them anymore | [04:43] |
BingoBoingo | moiety: Lol, I considered saying yes that's my dog, but... way too friendly for a bull mastiff. Such a dog allow some stranger to leash it with a belt without a fight. | [04:43] |

benkay | 80 pounds of high-efficiency dog engine. | [04:45] |
benkay | oh yeah. | [04:45] |
benkay | lol i can't give g a soccer ball - he'd rather destroy it than anything else. | [04:45] |
artifexd | Oh, the ball has a 100 punctures in it, but it is still her favorite. | [04:45] |
artifexd | Is your dog 80 lbs in the video? | [04:46] |
BingoBoingo | moiety: Well, it is a guard dog breed and I have nothing for such a dog to guard, especially while not being so friendly | [04:46] |
benkay | this group of hipsters plays dodgeball in the tennis courts you can see behind me in that video every monday, and frequently leave deflated dogeballs behind. rubber sacks the miniature dragon in question would rather rip to shreds than chase. | [04:46] |

BingoBoingo | Well, Sounds like the cap on this then is well under 0.05 | [07:42] |
danielpbarron | I'd rather do it on the DEX so it gets tracked on the top assets graph, but I'm not gonna turn down BTC if you send it here: 1MbPpiePrxuQLMeGZZJiYPbuta5farHyto | [07:43] |
danielpbarron | I can send the MEAT to any BTC address, but it's probably best if you get an address from counterwallet.co if you want to trade them easily | [07:43] |
danielpbarron | unless you're already running counterparty on one of your machines | [07:44] |
BingoBoingo | danielpbarron: Send the meat to Atruk 947952eaf8724b41837f490a6e8049810399651cb2725c383a28f822b2350929 I want the actual meat | [07:44] |

danielpbarron | :p | [07:45] |
danielpbarron | alright well i'm just gonna donate for some more meat to cover it again | [07:45] |
danielpbarron | that's a deal if you want; I'll send you 27`000`000 actual KoL meat for 0.05 BTC | [07:46] |

mircea_popescu | No better test to see text mining fail, it seems, than applying it to irc logs on bitcoin-assets: a careful calibration of state of the art tools yielded only a clear case of “by the time you figure out and implement everything needed to obtain even reasonable results, you surely did the “automated” work at least 5 times if not 10, if not 100.” | [15:58] |
mircea_popescu | this is proof of intelligence i say | [15:58] |
mircea_popescu | given the enthusiasm of text mining people << this is the enthusiasm of the doomed - it doesn't reflect anything on the direct avenue, but is merely the nervous laugh of someone who just got cut in half. | [16:01] |
* | chax (~chax@162-222-103-181.webpass.net) has joined #bitcoin-assets | [16:01] |
chetty | well to mine anything you sort of need to know what you are looking for | [16:02] |
mircea_popescu | text mining people are among the few who appreciate the problem of text deluge close to its actual size, which is another way to say they actually know we're surrounded by uncontrolled wildfire. that they pretend like you know, pissing on it works is more the result of their psychological need to fit in with the rest of the crowd, that blisfully ignores the problem, than anything else. | [16:02] |
mircea_popescu | in any case the end of civilisation is here simply because we've lost control of text. | [16:03] |
mircea_popescu | chetty yeah. it becomes problematic when you provably can't know, yet you still have to. this is a macroproblem of "nobody knows wtf the tax code says" | [16:03] |

ThickAsThieves | as i read diana's post, it occurs to me how much this channel is like the Howard Stern show | [16:15] |
diana_coman | simply because of the fact that the discussions really are pretty much about everything and in all forms and shapes | [16:15] |
ThickAsThieves | mp is Stern, providing most content | [16:15] |
ThickAsThieves | while friends like Robin and baba incite it | [16:15] |

mircea_popescu | pankkake actually if i had to somehow do what she's trying to do, i'd cheat : get the words put into !s and ;;ud, look three lines prior for the sentence they appear in, build the sentence tree and then use that grammatical pattern on the whole log. | [16:19] |
mircea_popescu | extract all words which work syntactically in the same manner as the searched terms. | [16:19] |
dub | all I remember is the awful scene with that chick raping a woofer | [16:19] |
mircea_popescu | because what the search does is it says "this is an important AND OBSCURE" term. | [16:19] |
mircea_popescu | whereas you want to see important and anti-obscure words. | [16:19] |
ThickAsThieves | dub it was indeed memorable | [16:19] |

mircea_popescu | o wait, he also had a girl that fucked her mother on once ? or what was it ? | [16:20] |

mircea_popescu | "Look at how the Internet has overwhelmed opponents of pornography. Back in the 1970's, the conservatives who ruled some towns were able to wipe out pornographic bookstores and theaters. Depending on what town you lived in, pornography might have been hard to come by. | [22:48] |
mircea_popescu | Today, the Internet brings every imaginable form of pornography to every home. The Internet is too valuable for too many things to just ban, and we can't even regulate spam that nobody wants, much less a product such as porn for which enormous demand exists." | [22:48] |
mircea_popescu | ok, asciilifeform's link above is pretty sweet. | [22:48] |

asciilifeform | retired chemist (afaik), was a kind of mircea_popescu in the sense of playing designated torturer to a long-dead derp reservation on usenet | [22:49] |
asciilifeform | vanished mostly without a trace some time in the mid '00s | [22:49] |
mircea_popescu | odd. | [22:50] |
mircea_popescu | "If marriage constituted more than a hypothetical risk of getting raped, I would expect women to learn to avoid it as women have learned to avoid walking around alone at night, or at least show some reluctance to get married, as women often show reluctance to put themselves into positions of vulnerability with men they just met or men they have gotten to know and decided they don't want to have sex with." << this is ac | [22:50] |
mircea_popescu | tually verified in practice. indian women are more than a little reluctant to get married. | [22:50] |

mike_c | empirical evidence only. what people tell me they are reading. | [22:53] |
asciilifeform | mike_c: when someone makes an observation like this, usually they mean books that would still exist if they had to be hand-copied | [22:54] |
mircea_popescu | i think less than 1% of the books i ever read were published after my birth. | [22:54] |

mircea_popescu | well you won't count looseleaf documentations as "books" would you ? | [22:55] |
mircea_popescu | wtf engineer actually reads | [22:55] |
jurov | certain bestseller endorsed by Governor of Canada comes to mind | [22:55] |
mircea_popescu | THE BOOK. | [22:55] |
asciilifeform | (for those who haven't read neal stephenson's tale 'anathem' - in it, there lived folks in specially designated reservations who were permitted only to think and study, and were let out to wander around for a few weeks once in a decade, century, or millenium - depending on what order they belonged to) | [22:55] |
mircea_popescu | and if you do read the book, its prolly going to be something like knuth or whatever other exceptionally well systhematising works, which are again well in the past. | [22:56] |
mike_c | stephen hawking is worth reading. | [22:56] |
mike_c | i can't think of anyone else. you're right, 1% is good. | [22:57] |

mircea_popescu | but that's probably just me being a pompous ass. | [22:57] |
asciilifeform | mircea_popescu: that 1 book (mentioned above) is probably the only truly interesting piece of sf produced in usa in... 30? yrs | [22:58] |
asciilifeform | one of those things that screams from every page 'this was written by an encyclopaedist who gnawed through the leather straps' | [22:59] |
