assbot Hai sa studiem gramatica impreuna on Trilema - A blog by Mircea Popescu. ... ( http://bit.ly/1JsAvMQ ) [01:40]
mircea_popescu the important bit for this convo being "nimeni nu are timp sa citeasca textele de specialitate cu ochi, uimiri si viteza de incepator, cu atentie si migala si "oare ce-a vrut sa spuna autorul" la fiecare cuvant. Nu-i fictiune, nu-i roman, e text stiintific, si se citesc cate zece mii de pagini pe an minim. Pentru a sustine eficienta muncii in stiinta se folosesc anumite cuvinte si structuri fixe ale caror sensuri se de [01:41]
mircea_popescu zbat amplu, se fixeaza definitiv, si apoi toti participantii la discutie le folosesc exact. Folosiri creative creeaza confuzie, si sunt de fapt principala bariera intre profesionisti si amatori in orice domeniu. Atunci esti admis ca profesionist in orice disciplina cind lumea considera ca ti se poate oferi increderea ca nu vei folosi niciodata, nicicand, niciunde, nici un termen de arta in sens impropriu. De asta se fa [01:41]
mircea_popescu c patru ani de scoala la drept si opt ani de scoala la medicina, creativitatea prost aplicata poate costa vieti, darima poduri, nenoroci destine. E INTERZISA." [01:41]
mircea_popescu nobody has time to read specialty text with beginner's eyes, wonderments and speed, with care and dedication and "i wonder what the author meant" every word. it's not fiction, it's not a novel, its science, you read ten thousand pages a year minimum. [01:41]
mircea_popescu to support work efficiency in science there are employed certain words and fixed structures, whose meanings are amply debated, definitivwely fixated and then every participant uses them exactly. creative usage creates confusion, and are in fact the main barrier between the pro and the amateur in any field. [01:42]
mircea_popescu at that point you are admitted as aprofessional in any discipline, when people consider that you may be trusted to never, ever, anywhere, use a term of art improperly. this is why they do four years' law and eight years' medical school, creativity malaplied can cost lives, topple bridges, destroy destinies. IT IS FORBIDDEN. [01:43]

mircea_popescu ben_vulpes yes [02:11]
mircea_popescu decimation right you are. [02:11]
mircea_popescu decimation hey, guy owns it. [02:12]
decimation note that this is the opposite of the earlier defense (it's his hobby) [02:13]
mircea_popescu ben_vulpes another aproach, but entirely for someone looking to sink a lifetime into this, is examining the failures (iirc there were a couple in there). see if any way to leverage this [02:13]
decimation His boss told him he had to, you see. Everything will be better if you accept unicode into your heart [02:13]
mircea_popescu decimation they lack the proper words to express themselves. what they mean is that it his private, sovereign domain, and he does whatever the fuck he likes, and anyone who doesn't care for it can go dangle. [02:14]
decimation sure, but at the pain of making himself look like a retard when he goes off and does something retarded in the name of his domain [02:14]
mircea_popescu exactly at that pain. [02:14]
mircea_popescu "With the long transition to “Python 3 by default” still in progress, the question is occasionally raised as to whether or not the core Python developers are acting as reasonable stewards of the Python language. " [02:16]
decimation I'll hand it to him, the guy is verbose [02:17]
mircea_popescu this is a non-issue. there's no homesteading in software. some derps using X language don't acquire some sort of "rights", just like gavin, that "bitcoin chamber of commerce" pageant chick or max keiser did not acquire any sort of property over bitcoin by derping on the margins of it with abandon. [02:17]
mircea_popescu moreover, i don't get the following sort of nonsense : "One solution is to fork Python 2.7, and continue developing the language, adding features in a backwards compatible way so large, unportable (due to financial constraints) Python 2 applications can continue to evolve and improve and bring value to the people and companies that invested so much time developing them. " [02:19]
decimation ah but the implicit threat: "What would it take to make you change your minds about the current plan? An important thing to understand for anyone hoping to convince the core development team to change direction in regards to Python 3 development and promotion is to know that mere words aren’t enough, it’s going to take action. That action is defined in PEP 404: creating a Python 2.8 release (under a different name, however, since [02:19]
decimation Python refers specifically to the language versions endorsed by the core development team) and convincing people to use it." [02:19]
decimation You can't use the word Python! We have rights! [02:19]
mircea_popescu this reads very brokenly to my eye, for many reasons, such as : a) people who can't afford things get no voice. this is what "financial reasons" means : shut the fuck up and go home. if you are poor, you aren't a person. [02:19]
mircea_popescu b) why exactly is the expected "developing" ? afaik, a language should be set in stone. if this is the view entertained, what "evolution" the fuck do they wish ? if this isn't the view contemplated, why are they not on 3 yet! [02:20]
mircea_popescu c) if people and companies invested time in shit that doesn't offer them a roi, this means they are stupid and should be punished. in no case does it mean they should get some compensatory candy. [02:20]
mircea_popescu etc. [02:21]
decimation yes, the whole document reads as a retroactive justification for guido's missteps. "no no, you see it was a clever strategy to release python 3 in a way that made it seem that it sucked ass." [02:21]
mircea_popescu decimation the quote was from some "python is killing python" post. [02:21]
decimation maybe this stuff should be added to the various grounds for a google fiduciary lawsuit [02:22]
mircea_popescu anyway, i don't get it. if the language was good, who cares about a fork ? it can be ignored like gavincoin, or burned to the ground at that. if the language sucked, then well... ? [02:22]
mircea_popescu decimation if they don't have the balls to step all over the "pep" and "rights" of the "core team" and do whatever they will, they probably don't have the strength to matter anyway. [02:23]
decimation yeah this is a good point. and it gives more ammunition to the idea that if one is using python, one should consider stepping away [02:24]
mircea_popescu i dunno that it makes any difference, really. if one is using python (or anything else) correctly, they pick something, and stick with it. [02:24]
mircea_popescu for instance : ubuntu sucks ass, especially the new versions, and the early ones. nevertheless, i use 10.04 as an easement / windows halfway house for all sorts of people. [02:25]
mircea_popescu this is unlikely to EVER change. i tried to move it to gentoo but the attempt burned, toppled and sunk into the swamp. [02:25]
mircea_popescu so why do i care what ubuntu does ? i got the 10.04 burned. it's mine. forgetaboutit! [02:26]
decimation it goes back to what asciilifeform was complaining about re: drivers. You are gonna have to buy new hardware at some point, and then you are going to have to rev everything to support it [02:26]
mircea_popescu i kinda doubt i will ever again buy new hardware. [02:26]
mircea_popescu unless they make wetware cpus, stuff's good as is. [02:26]
assbot [MPEX] [S.MPOE] 57250 @ 0.00021609 = 12.3712 BTC [-] [02:27]
mircea_popescu note for instance that the various "emergency problem - update required" stuff is in NEW-ish versions. like, heartbleed ? ubuntu 10.04 was fine. 12.04 ? owned. [02:27]
decimation well, if you can live on a hardware baseline, then you have the luxury of clamping down on software upgrade shit [02:27]
mircea_popescu for that matter, gnupg 1.4.x works just fine, and come to think about it the pogos are being raped with software that's a decade old. [02:28]
decimation note, this is exactly how any 'adult' program works: they were flying 80's era cpus in the space shuttle for the entire program because that was the baseline, and the software worked [02:28]
mircea_popescu yup. i am well aware. [02:28]
decimation same with aircraft, etc. nobody feels the need to 'upgrade' how a 777 works internally. you want new avionics? buy a new plane [02:28]
mircea_popescu quite. [02:29]
mircea_popescu of course by now they prolly do java everything and upgrade weekly. [02:29]

decimation heh yeah probably do [02:29]

decimation although boeing is a famous 'ada' shop. but they probably outsource that shit too [02:29]
decimation http://www.puritangift.com/en/blog/2013/01/14/boeings-dreamliner-aircraft-in-serious-trouble-just-as-we-predicted-on-page-7-of-the-puritan-gift/ < "In 2005 and 2006, a former Great Engine company, Boeing, sold 350 of its Dreamliner aircraft straight off the drawing board, with the intention of ‘out-sourcing’ the manufacture of 80 per cent of its structure and components to forty-three suppliers on three continents. We await the [02:30]
decimation outcome with unease. Until then, the company had always made the fuselage and wings for its planes; that is what Boeing was all about." [02:30]
assbot BOEING’S DREAMLINER AIRCRAFT IN TROUBLE, JUST AS WE PREDICTED ON PAGE 140 OF THE PURITAN GIFT! | The Puritan Gift ... ( http://bit.ly/1ReYIvH ) [02:30]
decimation I've got mixed feelings about this book, but it does talk about the decline in american managerial culture [02:31]
mircea_popescu decimation so for my own education (not following python much) is the 2/3 split primarily centered around unicode vs posix ? [02:32]
decimation yeah pretty much [02:32]
mircea_popescu seems like an excellent reason to fork. [02:32]
mircea_popescu make 2.8, zero unicode support. ascii or bust. [02:32]
decimation python 3 supports 'a better text model to support unicode' rather than 'posix with unicode bolted on' [02:32]
decimation apparently there are some folks who want to do exactly that [02:33]
mircea_popescu " It should be at least possible for users to start learning the basics of Python without having to first learn English as a prerequisite (even if English remains a requirement for full participation in the global Python and open source ecosystems)." << this is pretty retarded. [02:33]
mircea_popescu why the fuck would anyone even contemplate this. [02:33]
mircea_popescu you don't speak english, you don't get to use computers. back to the cave. [02:33]
trinque that's the condescending democratic notion of "them" [02:33]
trinque that you have to help [02:34]
trinque guido built a language for "them" [02:34]
mircea_popescu seems bizarre seeing how the earlier stuff was predicated on "we want to make the language WE enjoy using". what, guido doesn't speak english ?! [02:35]
decimation apparently guido's hobby is to convert python into a trojan horse for derpy utopianism [02:37]
decimation you know the next step... anyone who doesn't buy into python 3 is a racsis... [02:39]
mircea_popescu so how do you denote zhe in armenian ? [02:46]
mircea_popescu One key consequence of this is that the interpreter core in Python 3 is far more tolerant of paths that contain Unicode characters on Windows (so, for example, having a non-ASCII character in your username should no longer cause any problems with running Python scripts from your home directory on Windows). [02:50]

decimation http://www.econtalk.org/archives/2015/04/scott_sumner_on.html < "One of the things that disturbs me about the current world--and this is irrational, I suppose--but it bothers me that my children are growing up in a time when the return to setting money aside for the future is close to zero. So, when you say to them, 'You could save some money and don't have to buy everything with the money you have,' their response, which is correct, [23:30]
decimation is, 'Well, what's the point?' They look at their savings accounts, they are getting pennies. Pennies. And it's a fool's game." [23:30]

decimation "Guest: Let's think about how strange that observation is. You're absolutely right. But just to drive home the point of how strange that is, this worry the people have, you and many others, is occurring at exactly the same time that Thomas Piketty has become famous making exactly the opposite claim--that the capitalists are doing better and better and the workers are doing worse and worse" [23:31]

mircea_popescu unrelated >> http://newsru.com/world/01may2015/mexico.html << (possibly) zetas shoot down a chopper << how convenient for the us that mexico is actually going through the motions ahead of it. [23:41]

mircea_popescu who would have thought, the us copying mexico. except, of course, everyone aware of history. [23:41]

mircea_popescu too late to improve on tails. [23:48]
mircea_popescu decimation "worry" eh ? it's a worry now. [23:49]
mircea_popescu bitch, i don't "worry" about the future. i know what capital formation is, and what ownership is, and so on. these kids will never matter, because they will never own anything, and because they don't even know what that means. [23:50]
mircea_popescu this isn't a worry. this is empathy. i understand how fucked the bug is, even as i crush it under my boot. it is, after all, a bug. [23:50]
BingoBoingo Yellow Dog linux similarly could not improve. Was PPC Mac linux, when PPC Macs faded and other *nic found the platform faded [23:53]
mircea_popescu i guess so huh. [23:56]
mircea_popescu anyway, to round off the capital thing : without ownership you can not force anyone to care about you. whether you can or can not force me to care about you, i will force you to care about me. the illustration of this narrative are the sufferances of young gavin. he drank the "piketty" aka libertard coolaid, and now here he is, wondering what the fuck happened. [23:57]
mircea_popescu welllll... what else could have happened. "it's easier" is the siren song of the "you will NEVER matter" siren. [23:58]
