Mon Jan 11 00:27:32 UTC 2016 <mircea_popescu> incidentally, this seems a deeply ignored point, all sorts of okcupid chicks honestly expect they'll be entertained just because well... they exist. ridoinculous.
Thu Jan 07 01:12:02 UTC 2016 <mircea_popescu> no because you just update it
Thu Jan 07 01:11:08 UTC 2016 <mircea_popescu> annoying problems don't go away just because we don't want to have them.
Thu Jan 07 01:10:26 UTC 2016 <mircea_popescu> jurov dun hate on me just because i'm an asshole!
Mon Dec 28 01:30:14 UTC 2015 <mircea_popescu> doesn?t involve trying to derive probabilities at all, but rather asks the user to just ?produce your best-informed guess.? << and you'd love this precisely because of who you are, and where yo ulive, and what you want to be true.
Thu Dec 24 19:10:04 UTC 2015 <mircea_popescu> "Why did we launch with 12 million variants? Because we thought we needed to. Would the market have been happy to customise just the length? If we’d done proper validation, we would have known, that yes, it would have been happy?—?thrilled even. It only became apparent, too late, that 90% of our orders were for very typical jeans from atypically tall women. Stonewashed stovepipes with a 36-inch leg, anyone?"
Tue Dec 22 13:15:36 UTC 2015 <mircea_popescu> here's a rough rule of thumb : if the guy bringing you your donut is making below minimum wage, he is BY DEFINITION of the terms "minimum wage" and "waiter" NOT a waiter. because being a waiter IS A PROFESSION, just like being a computer engineer or a driver. meanwhile minimum wage is reserved for UNSKILLED!!! labour. like webstack developers and singer-songwriter-tablewaiters.
Tue Dec 22 13:13:17 UTC 2015 <mircea_popescu> bahwhahahahaha. random douche who thinks "waiters" = the douches just like him moving around tgi tuesdays is going to TEACH something, by repeating it over and over. an' thart something ain't gonna be "this fat poor sucker's also a jerk". it's gonna be something else. because he's the not so little train engine that can!
Mon Dec 21 10:09:53 UTC 2015 <mircea_popescu> "I won't comment on the account ban for privacy or regulatory reasons. But I can say that the ban has nothing to do with this person's hackerone reporting. And unfortunately, we cannot be more lenient on him just because he has previously helped us. The 2 issues are independent. And plus, the team that works with banning has no access or knowledge of the hackerone cases. This separation protects our customers' privacy."
Mon Dec 21 09:54:46 UTC 2015 <mircea_popescu> rought and disposed of (either accepting it or rejecting it) because both sides are present. Conversely, if you set a boundry for Amy in the terms of "don't try and think honey, that's for men, just sit there and be pretty" she might listen, especially at 7, but you've set a boundry for her that has no upside. "Men" doesn't even exist per se. So this isn't an argument that can be considered, it only has one side to it.
Mon Dec 21 00:26:01 UTC 2015 <mircea_popescu> "Sadly, that is not an undesirable result. Bloated code does not just keep programmers employed, but managers and whole companies, internationally. Compact code would be an economic disaster. Because of its savings in team size, development time, storage requirements and maintainance cost."
Mon Dec 21 00:02:55 UTC 2015 <mircea_popescu> <asciilifeform> http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=20-12-2015#1348882 << i said this because a GB of c source IS NOT ANYTHING-IFYABLE << it's a starting point. you know, just like bitcoin-shitcore.
Sun Dec 20 18:53:36 UTC 2015 <mircea_popescu> just because you can pump the shit uphill doesn't mean you should.
Sat Dec 19 22:22:59 UTC 2015 <mircea_popescu> now look : you can't dismiss that thing just because it exists.
Sat Dec 19 17:52:06 UTC 2015 <mircea_popescu> "i got this here aileron, just like the f1 ferrarris use. on my ford truck. because sometimes five ton ford trucks take off the road under their own speed."
Fri Dec 18 03:57:49 UTC 2015 <mircea_popescu> so intel reports that medium.com is headquartered at 760 market st, sf. just like "dropbox" and pretty much every other ycombinator scam / "entreprenize" to date. so therefore "why are all these derps with failed 'business ideas', 0 experience, 0 awareness, 0 clue on medium.com ?" "oh, because ycombinator told them to".
Thu Dec 17 13:38:59 UTC 2015 <mircea_popescu> in other news, chick on okcupid : "porque no me escribis en castellano, soy argentina" mp on okcupid : "It's not your fault you're Argentine. It is however your fault you're a dumbass. That's what I wanted to see, if you're just Argentine because your parents were dumb, or whether you are actually dumb yourself. Having established that point, a bon entendeur, salut."

Tue Dec 15 19:42:10 UTC 2015 <mircea_popescu> ascii_field the difference between "not work for competition" and "capital control" is inexistent - the us is a centrally controlled economy just like the su. and so, the soviets couldn't leave because "the state invested in their education", right ?
Tue Dec 15 19:05:56 UTC 2015 <mircea_popescu> mno. i just answer to random idiots derping on in here, because of a naive and perhaps misplaced notion that they'll learn something from the experience.
