| ben_vulpes: | and gcc --version ... 4.7.3 | [00:27] |
| asciilifeform: | looks like it came from gnat2017 tarball ? | [00:28] |
| ben_vulpes: | when run without the bootstrap use flag, gnat-gpl still unpacks a few gcc-6 gzips and bz2s | [00:29] |
| ben_vulpes: | ah shoot that's probably it | [00:29] |
| asciilifeform: | tbh the retardation of gcc5+ dun affect , in any known way, ada -- the rotters rotted c/cpp frontend strictly | [00:30] |
| asciilifeform: | and per the comments in ffa ch1, 2017 actually fixed inlining | [00:31] |
| asciilifeform: | so i refuse to fatwa gnat17. | [00:31] |
| asciilifeform: | but all of my works do and must build on 16 and prior. | [00:31] |
| ben_vulpes: | isn't it defacto fatwad if it won't work with 4.9? | [00:31] |

| asciilifeform: | ( i dun think usg coin-operated scamola works outside reich ) | [08:44] |

| mircea_popescu: | in which context, http://btcbase.org/log/2017-12-08#1748557 is not at all coincidental. google isn't worth anything in any proper sense but it has a brand, which is now being "monetized" in the classic IAB sense of the term (spamola for the rest of the world). | [08:47] |

"We will continue the growth of our teams, with the goal of bringing the total number of people across Google working to address content that might violate our policies to over 10,000 in 2018," YouTube CEO Susan Wojcicki told Britain's Daily Telegraph in an intervie | [08:47] |
| mircea_popescu: | ie, the fundamental problem of the worthlessness of ugc is being plumbed by usg at the wrong end : by abusing the power of the state to create imaginary value (a "creator" on etsy/patreon/etc might just be ye olde myspace band worth 0.00 but a "moderator" on reddit/youtube/etc is DOING GODS WORK and therefore how do you dare say priest time is worth 0 terrorist!!!) | [08:48] |
| mircea_popescu: | there's a large contingent of useless neets who can be "hired" (job creation! yay!) and who for the past decade had it hammered into them at the thanksgiving table that "why don't you work for google! that's where the smart kids and all the money is! check out their playroom!!!1" | [08:49] |
| mircea_popescu: | so now they DO work for google, in the only sense that matters to the ustard : "being able to say so". | [08:49] |

| BingoBoingo: | effectively due to shittiness of moderation system). That is unless the news is Google is taking the contractors on as direct hires | [08:56] |
| mircea_popescu: | i expect they want to turn as many of their cogs as possible with it. so yes, hired through manpower, mandatory-complimentary "id protection" from equifucks and so on. | [08:57] |
| BingoBoingo: | AHA, but yeah. Historically google had done this quietly. Then sometime earlier this year a pansuit rag did "expose" on practice which simply removed google's shame about the whole thing. | [09:04] |
| asciilifeform: | BingoBoingo: dunno if you knew , but actual-work-doing ( yes there is some prolly even today ) arms of usg, hire exactly like-so : through contract peonage agencies | [09:07] |
| asciilifeform: | everybody from 95% or so of r&d, to mop men, to guards, same thing | [09:08] |
| asciilifeform: | long ago asciilifeform worked on just such a contract, for many years. | [09:08] |

| asciilifeform: | mircea_popescu you never liked seasons ? | [10:05] |

| mircea_popescu: | asciilifeform i like seasons ok, but the thing with this particular spot is that it's ~perpetual spring. | [10:07] |

| asciilifeform: | mircea_popescu often writes about the degenerately slothful italians. why do you suppose they are so ? could be the 3 harvests they get ? | [10:07] |
| * asciilifeform | has never lived in a perpetual spring. but pictures, possibly naively, that if he were to, would have to take occasional break and go on trip to the arctic, say. just for contrast. | [10:08] |
| asciilifeform: | otherwise -- habituation, addiction, 'luxury ratchet' as in the old mircea_popescu article re chix with caviar | [10:09] |

| asciilifeform: | i read 'ukr chickie dun wanna costa rica' as 'import pet', possibly. | [10:15] |
| mircea_popescu: | nah. you know how most people do "one night stands" whereby they meet some chick in the evening and are out of her dorm by noon next day ? | [10:16] |
| mircea_popescu: | my implementation involves jet flight and goes for a week at a time, but otherwise... | [10:17] |

| asciilifeform: | possibly the chix see themselves as candidates for perma-move, and evaluate under it. | [10:18] |
| asciilifeform: | hence the 'i wouldn't want to lose seasons' thing. | [10:18] |

| BingoBoingo: | In other news yesterday's 7 argentine roommates were replaced by a smaller crowd of Brazilians | [10:21] |
| asciilifeform: | BingoBoingo: equally invisible as the 7 ? | [10:22] |
| BingoBoingo: | So far two distinct types of Brazilians have been observed | [10:22] |
| BingoBoingo: | asciilifeform: more visible | [10:22] |
| BingoBoingo: | 1. Speaks spanish with the clearest accent possible 2. Terrified of Spanish, vastly prefers English language | [10:22] |
| BingoBoingo: | asciilifeform: But less of them. | [10:23] |
| asciilifeform: | lol BingoBoingo type1 sounds like yer personal nsa stoolie attache | [10:23] |
| BingoBoingo: | After retiring from la oficina last night mananged to socialize a bit | [10:23] |
| BingoBoingo: | asciilifeform: Nah, 1 is not found in useful contexts for that | [10:24] |
| BingoBoingo: | I suspect the clarity of the Brazilian spanish accent is related to my own previous aural experience. When I studied a bit of portugues the accent was far easier for me to produce myself. | [10:26] |
| mircea_popescu: | asciilifeform yeah but matter of quality. | [10:26] |
| asciilifeform: | if mircea_popescu says his personal pr0n is of high quality -- why should i not believe. | [10:30] |
| asciilifeform: | and there's nothing outrageous or even remarkable about not publishing something, asciilifeform dun publish and dun intend to 99.999..% of his various attempts, folx routinely make cake of arbitrarily good quality to eat by themselves, whatever. | [10:31] |
| asciilifeform: | it wouldn't surprise me, for instance, if one day mircea_popescu said that he made fine shotguns, but only hunted with'em himself. mendeleev made... suitcases. etc. | [10:34] |

| mircea_popescu: | aha. | [15:25] |

| BingoBoingo: | Similarly toilet seats are uniformly lightweight molded particle board painted white. | [15:28] |
| BingoBoingo: | And the sinks while uniformly shiny often are showing early signs of valve failure. | [15:29] |
| asciilifeform: | BingoBoingo: so far this matches the description of typical flat in usa | [15:29] |
| asciilifeform: | ( at least east usa ) | [15:30] |
| BingoBoingo: | asciilifeform: In middle west toilet seats usually molded lightweight plastic resin, and sinks/doors tend to be more routinely maintained | [15:31] |

| asciilifeform: | in the oldest houses, strictly. | [15:31] |

| asciilifeform: | dun tell me this is played outside of 3rd grade tho | [15:39] |
| * asciilifeform | at this point ready to expect just about any infantilism from 'games world' | [15:40] |
| mircea_popescu: | of course it is. 100% of "discussing" "events" "news" and "politics" is this. what else is orlov, moldbug, wha have you ? | [15:40] |
| mircea_popescu: | this and this only, from al-jazeera to cnn. what else ? | [15:40] |
| mircea_popescu: | anyway. so there's two relevant episodes of seinfeld. in one, the resident imbeciles (the fat lazy one, postman, and the hipster doofus) engage in a VERY IMPORTANT game of nothing in particular. in the other, elaine's tasked to review a book about this cockeyed optimist. | [15:41] |

| mircea_popescu: | anyway, back to the topic upstream : | [15:55] |
| mircea_popescu: | the manson apocalypse goes as follows : 1. he makes a really happenin' record. 2. all the she-sluts of california swarm him. 3. all the black dudes who used to fuck these bunnies get really pissed off upon coming home and discovering the cumdumpster's ran off. 4. so pissed off they get, they riot and burn down some of the white man's shit. | [15:56] |
| mircea_popescu: | 5. the white man gets really fucking pissy about it, and like, does really mean things to the blacks. 6. the ~millitant~ black secret police uses this to provove a war between the "racist" and "non-racist" whites, which are conveniently dumb and also evenly matched. | [15:57] |
| mircea_popescu: | 6. everyone dies but!!! meanwhile manson was like underground with all the sluts from 2 7. they come back out, kill the like three white people left 8. the black dudes discover they suck anyway, and joyously submit (to, literally, balin' cotton.) | [15:58] |
