| Framedragger: | i want to try trinque's bot, too, but setting up sbcl etc and making sure things are reliable will have to wait for laters | [08:06] |

| mircea_popescu: | btw, i'm writing a mega-piece on clinical psychiatry. so save yourself an hour this evening. | [09:05] |
| asciilifeform: | mircea_popescu: i.e. 'ideological' #b-a perma-resident. | [09:05] |
| mircea_popescu: | eh. | [09:06] |
| * asciilifeform | allocates hour. | [09:06] |
| mircea_popescu: | what's the ideology. | [09:06] |
| mircea_popescu: | "we hate X guy" is politics, not ideology. gotta have an idea for to ideology. | [09:06] |
| asciilifeform: | then none. | [09:06] |
| Framedragger: | asciilifeform: thanks for putting words into a person's mouth, i'm sure that did great justice. you call this ideological? http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=16-08-2016#1453186 << i call this just being more critical and reflective | [09:07] |
| asciilifeform: | Framedragger: this is exactly it though. | [09:08] |
| asciilifeform: | kakotronic. | [09:08] |
| Framedragger: | you know, i recall shitty philosophy students dissing entire philosophical works by just calling them "platonic". can't really do justice by generalizing like that, can you now | [09:09] |
| Framedragger: | (in truth, not the best of analogies) | [09:10] |
| mircea_popescu: | anyone mind quoting the source material ? | [09:11] |
| Framedragger: | 16-08-2016 | [09:16] |
| Framedragger: | asciilifeform:pankkake: the 'can't admit being wrong' thing is quite true, and whether you can afford dealing with mptronics, is very personal matter. so i do not actually disagree, as such, with pankkake. | [09:17] |
| Framedragger: | "i'm more curious re kakobrekla's motivation for withholding any of the info." | [09:17] |
| Framedragger: | "the only possible explanation is that not all of it contributes to the narrative he wants to build." | [09:17] |
| Framedragger: | punkman:flimflams: "oops flushed the orderbook again", "oops mispaid dividends again", "HELLO I AM THE CEO OF BITCOIN, HERE IS THE BITCOIN EXAM, oh what do you mean btc addresses don't keep a balance?" "it's not socialized losses, it's btc cartelisation research" "you were being an asshole so I banned your mpex account" | [09:17] |
| Framedragger: | quotation with right-handed text is fucked | [09:18] |
| asciilifeform: | it was lulzy, kako promised 'proof that mircea_popescu is really nigerian' or similar | [09:19] |
| Framedragger: | ftr i haven't made up my mind and a man is more complex than just a binary state machine | [09:19] |
| mircea_popescu: | i am what ?! | [09:19] |
| Framedragger: | haha | [09:19] |
| mircea_popescu: | anyway, so what's the problem ? guy thinks he's on to something, this is the bread and butter of a life of the mind. | [09:20] |
| asciilifeform: | i've tried and failed to convince the fella to write up his 'something' | [09:20] |
| Framedragger: | my frustration with kako is that he doesn't think it's worth the time to write up a coherent narrative from his point of view. i'm sure it'd be useful to have it. maybe it's because it's impossible to have one in that case maybe not i for one don't fucking know | [09:20] |
| mircea_popescu: | yeah well, these things take a while. go have einstein write up "his something" the year prior his writing it you know ? | [09:21] |
| asciilifeform: | and hey, i might learn that i also was always nigerian? | [09:21] |
| Framedragger: | :D | [09:21] |
| mircea_popescu: | this is fucking absurd, not like guy never saw me ? wtf. | [09:21] |
| mircea_popescu: | is the idea here that "whatever, we've already fucked ourselves with anyone with a clue, might as well say things that'd perhaps persuade a fraction of anyone else" ? or what, is "nigerian" more of a state of mind than a state of pigmentation ? | [09:22] |
| asciilifeform: | mind | [09:22] |
| Framedragger: | totally sure it was meant with "mind". it's kinda gotten out of hand and is imho not constructive i mean, to keep to this narrative but not put it into (coherent stream of) words | [09:23] |
| asciilifeform: | as i understand, he now disbelieves in all of mircea_popescu that he had not personally seen | [09:23] |
| mircea_popescu: | heh sure, anyone can be anything etc. whatevs. | [09:23] |
| mircea_popescu: | to get back to it, "i am suspicious of this mp fellow" is not an ideology nor in itself much of a problem. | [09:23] |
| thestringpuller: | later tell diana_coman RE: our conversation of engines >> http://www.gamasutra.com/blogs/KevinNormann/20160412/270186/Game_Engines_Past_Present_and_Future.php | [09:24] |
| asciilifeform: | the really depressing bit about kako is that he floats in a vacuum now. | [09:24] |
| mircea_popescu: | Framedragger it's trauma, dude. he did what he earnestly believed was right at the time turns out to have been entirely and unmitigatedly wrong. this is catastrophic, and especially so in poorly socialized, introverted, intelligent males. now gotta reevaluate everything, the evaluations often don't come out meaningful, the correct alternatives are frequently perceived as alf-impossible, it's a mess. | [09:24] |
| asciilifeform: | i suggested various constructive lines of work to him, and (mega-unsurprise) it did not help. | [09:24] |
| Framedragger: | mircea_popescu: don't disagree with your characterization. but i don't think the "entirely and unmitigatedly wrong" is objectively / necessarily the case. mining konspiracy, i don't know, mircea. but at this point i'm too out of the loop for the "i" to be mean anything here. | [09:26] |
| mircea_popescu: | ftr : my "fuck you, you may not be poor and be here" is not (as i'm certain oft perceived, because why the fuck not, it's easier) simply mp-superby. it is a strict and absolute necessity for one's own mental health. | [09:26] |
| Framedragger: | to mean* | [09:26] |
| mircea_popescu: | this is BECAUSE people who are poor often lack the specific sort of sophistication that will keep them from falling in that exact hole. | [09:26] |
| asciilifeform: | eh the fella is richer than , e.g., asciilifeform | [09:26] |
| Framedragger: | asciilifeform: this is prolly again one of those "mind" things | [09:27] |
| mircea_popescu: | i dunno what it is but the risk is certainly there. | [09:28] |
| asciilifeform: | Framedragger: in case you didn't know - kako sits on a tall pile of earlyadoptronium (and also bbetronium) | [09:28] |
| mircea_popescu: | asciilifeform as a model, i propose to you that there's no substantial difference between this and say your bizarro position re llvm yest. | [09:28] |
| mircea_popescu: | not in its substance, MIND YOU | [09:28] |
| mircea_popescu: | in its expression. | [09:28] |
| asciilifeform: | he doesn't work for money and doesn't, as i understand, ever intend to. | [09:28] |
| mircea_popescu: | i have slaves who also don't so has the welfare state. this doesn't makethem "richer than x". they are the 0 of poor. | [09:29] |
| asciilifeform: | mircea_popescu: my position came from a substantial stint of actual study and experiment with llvm. | [09:29] |
| mircea_popescu: | so yes, in this sense, it IS a "mind thing" | [09:29] |
| mircea_popescu: | asciilifeform yes, but your expression of that position came from five minutes of being a teenage boy alone. | [09:29] |
| Framedragger: | http://log.mkj.lt/trilema/20160907/from:569/to:569#569 << interesting - but i agree with mircea_popescu here that it's not entirely relevant, as it's not meant in that sense. but, interesting | [09:30] |
| scriba: | Logged on 2016-09-07: [13:28:09] <asciilifeform> Framedragger: in case you didn't know - kako sits on a tall pile of earlyadoptronium (and also bbetronium) | [09:30] |
| asciilifeform: | mircea_popescu is invited to write article where llvm is described eloquently .. | [09:31] |
| mircea_popescu: | yeah sure, soon as apple's check clears. | [09:31] |

| asciilifeform: | but i have nfi how to fit it in 1 line as other than 'elaborate work of evil, baited mousetrap.' | [09:31] |
| mircea_popescu: | i'm not trying to repress you! i'm just using things. | [09:32] |
| mircea_popescu: | it's not "x was wrong, bad alfie!" it's "well review how x worked and it'll offer a model for how y works" | [09:32] |
| asciilifeform: | lel | [09:32] |
| asciilifeform: | jurov: mega-disappoint! where is the vomit? | [09:33] |
| mircea_popescu: | Framedragger the miner conspiracy is in no way related to any of this however. if you recall, that disagreement as such resulted in entirely no friction. | [09:34] |
| Framedragger: | oh really? interesting. but in http://trilema.com/2016/the-greatly-anticipated-bitbet-sbbet-february-2016-statement/ there is that "Cost of doing business in Bitcoin : 17.94766149 BTC" | [09:35] |
| mircea_popescu: | if someone shouts "down with the government" and then tries to grab a policeman's gun, he will be prosecuted and he will obviously claim "it's political". nevertheless... | [09:36] |
| mircea_popescu: | Framedragger sure. businesses will on occasion run into unexpected costs. this is a fact of [business] life. | [09:36] |
| asciilifeform: | his position was, and afaik remains, ' mircea_popescu's misconfiguted btctron blew away 17+, he should pay ' etc. | [09:37] |
| asciilifeform: | *configured | [09:37] |
| mircea_popescu: | and this is, as you notice, entirely divorced from that. | [09:37] |
| asciilifeform: | i do not yet notice? | [09:38] |
| Framedragger: | wasn't the whole point of it that kako disagreed of you attempting to charge bbet money for spending money twice (ironically, zero fee tx will be more difficult with no block size increase - which i'm against, too). that this was not in the gpg contract. so he did not sign bbet statement. and then bbet proceeded to be liquidated. you also disabled his mpex account for an unsigned comment on qntra or wherever which did not breach any clau | [09:38] |
| Framedragger: | se of the gpg contract, but that's separate, too, i guess | [09:38] |
| mircea_popescu: | that it's a smoothly working machinery, where escalation was tried and failed and then tried and failed and then and failed AND THEN TRIED!!! and failed does not excuse one from pretending "the last step" is "because the first step". | [09:38] |
| mircea_popescu: | there bowls of "fuck me, i'm stupid" to be eaten at every juncture. perhaps of increasing size, it is true, but there nevertheless. | [09:39] |
| mircea_popescu: | the anal child's "you didn't buy me my toy so it's your fault i'm a junkie" only works in the mind of the anal child. | [09:39] |
| asciilifeform: | i happen to think that kako was a bloody fool for signing up for '0 asset corp' | [09:39] |
| asciilifeform: | it is like that no-fat lab mouse | [09:40] |
| asciilifeform: | if you forget to feed it just once... | [09:40] |
| asciilifeform: | or it gets excited and runs a little too long | [09:40] |
| mircea_popescu: | Framedragger not only separate, but entirely nobody's concern. i can ban anyone for any reason or for no reason and i offer no explanations. this is how, you know, your bank works, also. | [09:41] |
| asciilifeform: | i did point this to him. | [09:41] |
| mircea_popescu: | aaaanyway. | [09:41] |

| mircea_popescu: | this is actually not bad. | [11:22] |
| asciilifeform: | phf: neato | [11:22] |
| phf: | unless you post a mutually recursive url (one that contains both links at the same time and references another one that contains both) | [11:22] |
| mircea_popescu: | if you do that i'll ban you, how about that. | [11:23] |
| mircea_popescu: | the problem is that as discussion progresses, there will be genuine references that are very long./ | [11:23] |
| mircea_popescu: | i think best would be if phf Framedragger and everyone ever running a log bot limits the number of lines the bot will read without interruption from human to three. | [11:23] |

| mircea_popescu: | nra's existence is not mega seekrit, among numerous other such things. much like sa's existence was not secret, but also not relevant. the commies had bigger and for that reason supposedly better paramilitaries. | [20:20] |

| mircea_popescu: | lmao | [22:33] |
| asciilifeform: | i disagree that they are wholly a snore. rather, valuable entomological specimens. they rode the libertard train to its logical final stop. e.g., EMULATED people are posited to exist, in the future projecting (yes) into the past which 'created' them, and have 'rights.' | [22:35] |
| asciilifeform: | just like the regular kind. | [22:35] |
| mircea_popescu: | "No. I am asking: Where do rationalists come from? How do we acquire our powers?" | [22:35] |

| asciilifeform: | dunno that more than ~handful of biological womenz are involved in any of this. | [22:40] |
| mircea_popescu: | i mean what the chick describes, "you dumb slut, when your master tells you to go the fuck outside you go the fuck outside, what arguments" is very basic slavegirl experience. the cruft she builts all around it though... | [22:40] |
| mircea_popescu: | what "imagine future self" for crying out loud. how about imagine your future butt. with welts and all. | [22:41] |
| asciilifeform: | none of these folk are getting arse welts any more than they'll be dragged on a rope under dirigible. | [22:42] |

| asciilifeform: | hm | [22:45] |
| mircea_popescu: | anyway, re "handful of biological women" : there was at no point in the history of porn that im aware of, a differential lower than three degrees of magnitude between the chick count and the dork count. | [22:46] |
| mircea_popescu: | so.. handful of girlz, yes, and a bunch of dorks, yes. numbers check out. | [22:46] |
| asciilifeform: | about same % as in, e.g., mining camp ? | [22:47] |
| mircea_popescu: | naa | [22:48] |
| asciilifeform: | or whatever other meatgrinder-for-supernumerary-males-with-chix-audience | [22:48] |

| mircea_popescu: | perhaps because it's true. | [22:50] |
| asciilifeform: | btw - ~why~ was it that the peasant gurl could not go to the sea ? | [22:51] |
| asciilifeform: | i never grasped | [22:51] |
| mircea_popescu: | by herself ?! what, as a 12yo or w/e ?! | [22:51] |
| asciilifeform: | or as older etc | [22:51] |
| asciilifeform: | folks dun stay 12 forever | [22:51] |
| mircea_popescu: | as older wouldn't be relevant to the story, being later. who knows, maybe she grew up to worship my footsepts. | [22:52] |
| mircea_popescu: | but in any case : you couldn't just BUY a hotel reservation. you had to get tickets. | [22:52] |
| asciilifeform: | ro is what, 900km wide ? and iirc it's got trains | [22:52] |
| mircea_popescu: | which were distributed by workplace | [22:52] |

| mircea_popescu: | if you tried to camp on the sea you'd have been arrested and sent to work. | [22:52] |
