lobbes: In other news, I wish this mp-wp-bot already existed. I've been trying to locate a Trilema piece for this post I'm working on, and I must've gone through a few dozen by now with no luck. [03:48]
lobbes: I believe it talks about the limit of existence in a socialist world. There's a specific phrase in it that goes something like "You'd better make sure you negotiate for what you want, because that is *all* you are getting. Ever." Any Trilema-ologists in know it? [03:48]

mircea_popescu: http://logs.nosuchlabs.com/log/trilema/2019-09-11#1935529 << there's about zero chances i'll tell someone what to do with things that don't interest me. i mean it's not even fucking possible, altogether, by reason of logical inconsistency : if you're not interested in a toy, how the fuck can you summon the basis upon which to tell others what to do with it ? if you're interested then the same thing upon which that interest [04:40]
mircea_popescu: is based will inform the ought discussion, sure but absent that... just, how ?! [04:40]
snsabot: Logged on 2019-09-11 09:23:33 diana_coman: there is always (and still available and I'd like to see it taken by phf, yes) the place in other castles so I suppose, if one must answer the question, the threshold as I see it atm = reaching to ban from *other* castles. [04:40]
mircea_popescu: in fact, breaking this distinction is truly the one deep problem with all sorts of "religious" thinkers in their own view, aka unmitigated morons in reality : the traditional position of the mula, intellectually impossible as it is, stands as "i'm not interested in sin therefore here's what you must do about it". [04:43]
mircea_popescu: this shocking bit of imbecility unites across all times and all geography idiotic old women from george fox to cioran's hag with dirty feet. [04:45]
mircea_popescu: notwithstanding its manifest popularity among the most perdurant and pervasive type of hostis humani generis, it's still impracticable insanity. [04:46]
mircea_popescu: if i'm gonna want to learn about sex ima ask rapists not "careerwomen", and if i'm gonna want to learn about war ima visit hitler not "pacifists", "global hunger fixers" an' the rest of that very sad lot. [04:52]

mircea_popescu: anyways. [04:54]

ossabot: Logged on 2019-09-11 00:43:20 asciilifeform: trinque: orig. contention, which i disputed. phf was 1 of the very, very few people whose hands grew from right place, and it will take very long time to replace , not even speaking of the full functionality of the orig. bot ( still not had ) but of e.g. the vpatch viewer, which i use erry fucking day of the week [04:55]
snsabot: Logged on 2019-09-09 05:21:49 mircea_popescu: imagine, all this flurry of exciting new development could have been occuring in 2017, if i had the sense to kick phf out on his rear in 2017, rather than let him sit his dumb ass on us for two years. [04:55]
mircea_popescu: holy shit cascading references! neato! [04:55]
mircea_popescu: but yes, to say it plainly : i don't agree phf was some kind of technical monument or example to be followed. making things that work does not enact one into such observe that every frog makes things that work, extremely fine things that work extremely well, viz the very fucking frog in question. yet a frog that can breathe is an ordinary frog, not an exceptional engineer. [04:57]
mircea_popescu: there's http://trilema.com/forum-logs-for-03-oct-2014#1449805 / http://btcbase.org/log/2014-10-03#856338 distinction bearing here : if one's notion of technical acument doesn't include "describing the things", every dog's an engineer nonpareil for having fleas. [04:59]
mircea_popescu: one can't quite make fleas in the lab as things stand right now, so in this utterly jeffersonian view the ploughsman's the only true scientist. [05:00]

asciilifeform: d00d was ( and past tense, seems to have stopped twitching ~mo. ago? ) strangely phobic of posting progs [05:07]
mircea_popescu: (incidentally, for the linguist interested in the natural evolution of alphabetic language into hieroglyphic, such as both egyptian and chinese naturally ended up in the shit [damn][after being used as languages for long enough], tironian notes provide the necessary bridge) [05:08]

mircea_popescu: trying to find it i discovered http://logs.nosuchlabs.com/log-search?q=%22a+b%22&chan=trilema [05:08]
mircea_popescu: why's the http://logs.nosuchlabs.com/log/trilema/2019-07-06#1921930 returned, it has no "a b" in there and why's it not bolded ? [05:08]
snsabot: Logged on 2019-07-06 04:42:12 BingoBoingo: The particular election rabbit hole I've just about completely explored is how "book club" party with an uncontested internal managed ~50 kilovotes for recently fired former commander in chief Guido Manini Ríos Stratta whose only firm platform position seems to be no "reform" of the military retirement system and softer position declaring "Army on streets is good" [05:09]
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform, didactica aside, i dunno any of his production was even vaguely visible. i mean, you realise trilema still runs to this very fucking day on code published in what was it, 2015, [05:10]
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: i'ma have to see when i'm awake, possible oddity [05:11]
mircea_popescu: whatever, just as soon as it was even vaguely possible one might've had some use for it. and this is ~deeply unsexy~, mind, i ain't publishing boihood-conventional "cool stuff & frank zappa" here. i'm publishing the most shameful thing known to the wankastery collective, and then end up having to "battle" nonsense of "oh, mp is intellectually stunted, can't install linux" because of it [05:11]
mircea_popescu: not that i mind, but there IS a difference. [05:11]

asciilifeform: np [05:13]
asciilifeform: ftr i cannot, try as i might, understand the publication-phobiac folx. when you sit on the proggy, all yer doing is making sure that others will spit on your grave, 'grr, fucker, because of him i have to write the 17th logotron nao' [05:19]
mircea_popescu: people never thing properly of anything. [05:21]
mircea_popescu: the reason so much misdesign exists in the world is the imbecile puritan "think positive" nonsense. [05:21]
asciilifeform: http://logs.nosuchlabs.com/log/trilema/2019-09-14#1936012 << 'describe' is very difficult. or maybe i'm thick. but i wrote pieces that were >50% commentola by weight and when rereading still sad, 'this is not properly described'. [05:21]
snsabot: Logged on 2019-09-14 01:42:47 mircea_popescu: there's http://trilema.com/forum-logs-for-03-oct-2014#1449805 / http://btcbase.org/log/2014-10-03#856338 distinction bearing here : if one's notion of technical acument doesn't include "describing the things", every dog's an engineer nonpareil for having fleas. [05:21]
mircea_popescu: correct thinking consists of thinking ~about the negative space~. not about the positive space. not "oh hurr durr it works", ffs. [05:22]
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform, standard wasn't ~properly~ described. standard was described at fucking all, i don't need to explain the difference between your logger which diana_coman 's running now and phf's alleged logger which, for all anyone knows, consists of one mechanical turk who meanwhile got sad / ran away. [05:23]
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: when wrote 'm', actually spent many days rewriting the commentary. but today when looking at it, 'who can read this? why?' and sad. [05:23]
mircea_popescu: don't be. [05:23]
asciilifeform: it was enheartening tho when diana_coman ate ffa 1-19 and commented. apparently it was edible by at least 1 . (even if took a maffs doctor ) [05:25]
mircea_popescu: to continue "publication-phobic folks" thread : difference between mouse and man is that moue will eat itself into overweight to the point where can't, famously, get back out through the hole it came in. [05:25]
mircea_popescu: man will consider, "oh nice, there's nine pies here, i'm still going to have ONE SLICE". [05:25]
mircea_popescu: and like this in everything -- man will say "i can't fucking sit on all this, people will spit on grave IF ONE DAY IT HAPPENS i'm incapacitated". [05:25]
* asciilifeform writes proggies as a kind of will / seppuku haiku. 'friends, here is how to operate, for i am not among...' flavour. [05:27]
mircea_popescu: man will say "i can't sit about pretending to myself i've a gf, if in case something should happen this Maddy Humphreys woman doesn't know enough of me to mention the circumstance in the one place that matters in my life" [05:39]
mircea_popescu: man, generally speaking, WILL THINK OF THE NEGATIVE SPACE. [05:39]
mircea_popescu: wtf, how hard is it and how the fuck could it not be obvious. [05:39]
mircea_popescu: not "do i want a jetski" but "what will i do with a jetski in akron, ohio" and "how will i pay the cc bill or why should i have to". [05:41]
mircea_popescu: negative fucking space ffs, it used to be called thinking back when my grandfather could barely read now that all everyone does all day is "read" facebook somehow magically nobody can think anymore ? [05:42]
mircea_popescu: well why the fuck not@ [05:42]

snsabot: Logged on 2019-09-11 09:52:19 diana_coman: http://logs.ossasepia.com/log/trilema/2019-09-11#1935464 - hm, this sounds to me like the fundamental difference causes/purposes all over again you are looking at what is needed (work done and done well!) and that's your start, so you build backwards, ending up with basically "too needed to fail" sort of thing. [05:55]
snsabot: Logged on 2019-09-09 11:53:01 mircea_popescu: it'll solve all the world's problems regardless : either through zeroing, or else through solving. [05:55]
ossabot: Logged on 2019-09-11 00:49:58 asciilifeform: it is very easy to say 'they were weak, fughet'em'. but fact remains, they were not replaced , of yet . [05:55]
mircea_popescu: http://logs.nosuchlabs.com/log/trilema/2019-09-11#1935544 << yes. theirs. [05:55]
snsabot: Logged on 2019-09-11 11:19:51 asciilifeform: diana_coman: let's reformulate. it takes a very long time to produce 1st class people. (as a pedagogue, you know this.) if they burn up faster than they are produced -- this is a problem. [05:55]
mircea_popescu: no solving problems through group. [05:56]
mircea_popescu: http://logs.nosuchlabs.com/log/trilema/2019-09-11#1935554 << it's not like it's fucking arbitrary, might as well ask sums to "moderate themselves", why not, write letter to factorial, "dear factorial, your results are computationalyl challenging, and it is unfair to most numbers above 10 or so that they can never feel safe in being followed up by an exclamation point like their single-digit bretheren. why won't you moderat [05:58]
mircea_popescu: e ryour output ?!" [05:58]
snsabot: Logged on 2019-09-11 11:52:55 diana_coman: asciilifeform: for the other thing, the situation you describe can indeed very well happen and yes, a problem, but the solution can never be "restrain your adverse reaction" [05:58]
mircea_popescu: the only law is this : that if you don't want to have to write 3600 digits, don't fucking start with 1337! [05:59]

mircea_popescu: Yes, obviously, as per long standing republican doctrine (and standing as such since long before this particular republic was even declared) the lord can get away with bloody murder. Of course he can. But this doesn't mean it's not murder, or not bloody." [06:02]

[06:02]
mircea_popescu: http://logs.nosuchlabs.com/log/trilema/2019-09-11#1935561 << unlike phf, holding a torch of oneitis for some pantsuit chick that likely couldn't pick him out of a line-up, i should hope the texan has enough fucking sense to actually manage his household as his own. [06:02]
snsabot: Logged on 2019-09-11 12:15:28 asciilifeform: for that matter, we still have a system like this -- deedbot. is trinque doomed to same fate as phf, if he ever 'gets lucky' and trapped on cannibal island , and it takes him a week to knife his way out ? [06:02]
mircea_popescu: and if he doesn't, yes, very much exactly beheaded in the same way for the same reasons. [06:03]
mircea_popescu: but until we find out, WE DO NOT CARE. [06:03]

mircea_popescu: http://logs.nosuchlabs.com/log/trilema/2019-09-11#1935562 << he has this weird approach to discussing all approaches to problem that'd pass for offensive anywhere else. here it's just weird -- but yes, it is fucking weird. [06:08]
snsabot: Logged on 2019-09-11 12:20:12 diana_coman: asciilifeform: that wasn't at all the issue and it has been already pointed out to you several times, here and on trilema.com [06:08]
mircea_popescu: i suppose it is also terse, missing out on about 2/3 of the introductions does save some space. [06:09]
mircea_popescu: i don't expect anyone can actually talk to alf who isn't both very intellectualyl lively and has a lot of experience talking to alfs. which technically is the definition of autism, i guess. [06:09]
mircea_popescu: come to think about it ... yo asciilifeform , do you realise about 9/10ths of trilema the blog by mass is spurious introduction, which i could very well "do without" by employing a similar tironian process, except then nobody in the whole fucking world could follow what the fuck's being said anymore ? [06:11]
mircea_popescu: not that very many manage even as it is -- but i'll be fucked with thistlestalks before i make that 9/10ths 19/20ths, holy hell, i'll need spare wrists. [06:12]
mircea_popescu: http://logs.nosuchlabs.com/log/trilema/2019-09-11#1935581 << of course the trigger was the trigger. what's in a trigger ? my neighbour has this eight year old dog. it's a large dog, and in large dogs eight is pretty much the end of the line. it's coming for her, too, three or four times already she passed out running / fell over, sat there squirming in desperation. heart's giving out. [06:18]
snsabot: Logged on 2019-09-11 12:56:02 asciilifeform: diana_coman: the trigger for the entire episode. was the loss of the logger . [06:18]
mircea_popescu: it's how large dogs die, as this one'll die. and when it dies, whatever the fuck will have been ~the trigger~. whatever the fuck inconsequential event, a car honking, a cat jumping, a bad dream, things that happen daily to other dogs to no ill effect. [06:19]
mircea_popescu: it's a dog, though, it has no fucking idea it's walking about looking for that final trigger. [06:20]
mircea_popescu: it doesnt' even understand what the fuck's happening to it when it passes out, seems rather like a ~momentary~ inexplainable nonsense / witchcraft best not ever considered past the moment, forgotten as soon as it passed as part and parcel of what being a dog even is there's no anxious dogs because dogs have no memory in this reflexive sense. [06:21]
mircea_popescu: men do. [06:21]
mircea_popescu: in fact, the whole http://trilema.com/2013/for-lack-of-a-nail/ thing is exactly this : a succession of triggers. [06:22]
mircea_popescu: in any case, let's just say that trigger avoidance is a comparatively poorer strategy [06:24]
mircea_popescu: http://logs.nosuchlabs.com/log/trilema/2019-09-11#1935593 << traditionally the process in dealing with personal failure is 1. "here's what i did wrong" 2. "here's what ima do to not do that again in the future". [06:26]
snsabot: Logged on 2019-09-11 13:17:36 asciilifeform: diana_coman: changed how ? grow extra pair of hands ? a tree-proof arse ? [06:26]
mircea_popescu: coversely, the process of being an imbecile is 1. "here's what i don't like about you" initiating half of the retard's handshake. [06:27]
mircea_popescu: which of these two would you propose was followed here ? [06:27]
mircea_popescu: dood to this fucking day imagines himself a "basically decent" fellow who "was oppressed" by the meanies of this world for "his bad luck". because idiocy comes in layers, lucifer went straight to hell thinking himself i nthe right on the same exact process also. it's a thing. [06:29]
mircea_popescu: as a sure-fire heuristic, only dumb cunts discover "they were abused" as a disavowed result misrepresented as driving cause of contemplating how they fucked up. [06:42]
mircea_popescu: and THIS is what's meant by "if you hang out with retards you'll become retarded" : dude spent so much time with the ustards, he is now behaving like a stupid cunt. his discovery of having fucked up doesn't lead to "omfg, i fucked up SO BAD". it leads to "oh, republic is abusive". [06:43]
mircea_popescu: and it's self-perpetuating, too. if i take the trouble to actually write a trilema piece for his dumb ass, something absolutely nobody's entitled to expect, the result's more elaborate disavowal and general cuntery, rather than an awakening to sense. [06:45]
mircea_popescu: because duh, "nobody ever got hanged for being a stupid cunt", the foundational myth of the inca state. [06:45]
mircea_popescu: unrelatedly : hey trinque, now that there's actually multiple functional castles the time's prolly come to update the deedbot voice model into awareness of this situation. so how about a patch making voice in #trilema dependent on ~my~ wot, rather than deedbot's own and similarily in any castles that ask for it / you come to an understanding with the lords thereof, so they can use the voice model there if they wanna. [07:07]
mircea_popescu: this way the ad-interim imaginaria of a bot's wot can be put back on the shelf where it belongs. [07:08]
diana_coman: http://logs.ossasepia.com/log/trilema/2019-09-14#1935997 - makes sense and it's precisely why I'd see it as a sign of disease btw because it... is. [07:08]

mircea_popescu: will run into the usual problem, when will want to insert thing between 4 and 5 and there's no number there.' [07:33]
mircea_popescu: i guess it can be revised, like all conventions / indirection layers. [07:33]
diana_coman: well, the roles are what matter, no? ie it's peers talk if today peers are marked with 9 and tomorrow with 11, such is history [07:33]
mircea_popescu: myeah. [07:34]
mircea_popescu: and i can see the "hey diana_coman if you dun wanna rate johnny 9 then don't knight'him" ? [07:34]
diana_coman: splitting into separate key doesn't yet make any sense to me [07:34]
diana_coman: aha, precisely. [07:34]

mircea_popescu: the quote in particular is misleading -- it discusses a stupidity of young women, whereby they very much as discussed above misrepresent their "needs" as "support for escaping the consequence of their idiocy without needing to substantially review theyr cunthead". [07:50]
mircea_popescu: this ain't a proper need and will get no support. it's what the "need" in there denotes, rather than the plain need. [07:50]
mircea_popescu: that's the big problem with "helping", teenagers especially, but not just : they dun wanna be helped, they just wanna be insulated from the consequences of their idiocy. [07:55]
mircea_popescu: #metoo and all that is merely contemporaneous expression of ~same eternal thing. [07:55]
diana_coman: fwiw I always end up scratching my head at this "mircea_popescu won't help" because I haven't seen more people that are more helpful than mircea_popescu the only way that "won't help" makes sense to me is if it's fully qualified as in "won't help your stupidity" [07:57]
