The Economy: Edification & Education As Economic Freedom Arts




From a dialogue on Libera in ##politics overnite ⸻ I am `lakitu`:

{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) am 12:44’48”} <violetjewel> hopefully, there will be some leader/movement in palestine/gaza who/that lead palestinians out of this notion that a one-state solution (aka genociding israel) is not a viable option and that a peaceful two-state solution is the only option while every other muslim nation to the north-east has realized that israel isn’t going to disappear. hamas, the governing body of palestine, would in theory

{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) am 12:44’50”} <violetjewel> attempt to preserve the lives of the people they govern, and yet they constantly pressure the palestinians into intifadas while indiscriminantly firing rockets over the border and then weaponizing the deaths of their own “people” (if you can even call palestinians that) as martyrs while engaging in guerilla terrorism and operating out of civilian infrastructure and storing their weapons under

{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) am 12:44’52”} <violetjewel> schools, mosques, and hospitals. I’m not saying the Likud is perfect, but the only way forward is a peaceful 2-state solution, and that starts with Palestinians reclaiming their government from guerilla terrorists who want them to be dead martyrs and constantly push for intifadas and genocide.

{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) am 12:57’05”} <violetjewel> After a pandemic, if you don’t deficit spend (aka stimulate) then you’re going into a recession / economic collapse. COVID-19 has been hard on us all, and yet that’s hardly Biden’s fault. Investing in the chips act was a wise long-term economic investment. although I do believe there was a bit too much stimulation, america survived far better than many other countries. I do understand that blue

I think parts of Harris’ plan to support small businesses, startups, and families are wise, while potentially other aspects such as her economic plans for housing and potentially categorical price caps may be a bit aggressive.

{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) am 01:32’25”} <violetjewel> yeah — is also interchangeable with —

{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) am 01:32’46”} <IndyJoenz> lakitu: Either the client (irssi), terminal (iterm2 on macos), or both. Or maybe gnu screen is mucking with it, who knows

{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) am 01:32’49”} <IndyJoenz> there are so many layers to these things

{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) am 01:33’09”} <violetjewel> terminal renders the font. I use st with FiraCode and a few ligatures.

{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) am 01:33’09”} <IndyJoenz> layers that need wide character support retrofitted in

{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) am 01:34’01”} <lakitu> it is either your font or your IRC client (or both). I am in `hexchat` which renders the three-em dash.

{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) am 01:34’40”} <violetjewel> screen and irssi just throw bytes and escape codes at the terminal that renders them. it’s the terminal. Perhaps non-monospace font clients (eg hexchat (yep- guessed it :D)) fair better

{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) am 01:34’46”} <lakitu> or as you’re saying: the terminal / other ‘layers’

{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) am 01:34’48”} <IndyJoenz> I need to get my head better around how variable width unicode characters work, especially with unix terminals

{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) am 01:35’33”} <lakitu> I’m in a Palatino Lintoype small-caps font in `hexchat` . . .

{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) am 01:41’09”} <IndyJoenz> violetjewel: You would think that screen and irssi just throw bytes unmodified at the terminal. However, in my experience, that is not always the case. I have seen newer unicode characters not render correctly inside of screen, and various ncurses programs. I think it has to do with being compiled against something for Utf-8 support, but using an older Unicode standard.

{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) am 01:41’21”} <IndyJoenz> but they render in the terminal fine otherwise

{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) am 01:41’42”} <IndyJoenz> Something about screen being aware of every character it prints

{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) am 01:43’34”} <violetjewel> IndyJoenz: you have to use a font and a terminal that supports them. I’m using FiraCode Nerd, which supports them, and I patched st to support ligatures.

{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) am 11:07’24”} that question requires context for any meaningful response.
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) am 11:10’22”} * lakitu gives voice to Ragtime^
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) am 11:10’41”} life philosophy . . . ethics . . . religion . . .
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) am 11:11’23”} “happy medium, or minimally Good, or extremely Good” also, “happy” and “good” are not the same things
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) am 11:12’28”} also “better” for who?
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) am 11:12’47”} picky picky am Eye :-)
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) am 11:12’57”} happy medium is an established expression: Like “the sweet spot” . . . the middle of the road . . .
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) am 11:13’11”} * happy medium is an established expression: Like “the sweet spot” . . . *”*the middle of the road*”* . . .
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) am 11:13’28”} ** *”*happy medium*”* is an established expression: Like “the sweet spot” . . . *”*the middle of the road*”* . . .
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) am 11:14’36”} yes, but happy, not being good, is not directly comparable
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) am 11:16’17”} it is a expression that means ‘mid extreme & radical’
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) am 11:16’26”} doh
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) am 11:17’07”} if you want to say “good medium, or minimally Good, or extremely Good” those are all comparable
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) am 11:17’28”} as 3 states of good
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) am 11:17’38”} vs 2 and another thing
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) am 11:18’35”} 2 + something else needs context to connect the “not the same thing” elements
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) am 11:19’44”} if you are refering to three states of good, fine: the more good the better imho
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) am 11:24’55”} I think I have been turned to the sweet spot: the happy medium between radical Good & extreme Good . . . one reason I elect to lower diligence from radical (in the meaning stipulated) Good: imagine frugality earning wealth – that you never spend on your Wives, your Girlfriends . . . that is radicality that seems “microradical” – Like √ applied to 1/n: it exponentially goes the opposite direction;
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) am 11:26’23”} a happy medium between minimally and maximal good is also workable for comparison… “medium” is the context required to connect all three as states of good
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) am 11:26’48”} at the same time I wish to configure the mid – the radical Good – & the extreme Good on a case-by-case basis: invest in that soaring stock – & minimize that carcinogen . . . for example.
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) am 11:28’28”} I don’t see any support for your use of “radical” as meaning what you suggest
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) am 11:29’38”} “The noun, radical, comes from the Latin radix “root,” and in fact, radical and root are synonymous as technical terms in fields such as math and linguistics. In more everyday language, a radical is someone who has very extreme views, so you could say that their views are different from the root up. Similarly, a radical flaw or change is a fundamental one whereas a radical design or idea is very new and innovative.” is pretty standard
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) am 11:30’03”} I’m sorry you are misconceiving it: radical in mathematics – “√” – means a largely minimizing effect. √100 = 10; a decimation
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) am 11:30’46”} that is another misdefinition for the dictionary denotation I stipulated.
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) am 11:31’14”} I know
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) am 11:31’42”} I am not misconcieving your use of the word, I am disputing it
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) am 11:31’44”} radical carcinogen minimization – to minimize carcinogens – for example
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) am 11:32’38”} “radical” is the polar oppostie of “extreme”
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) am 11:32’43”} that is a lazy person’s definition
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) am 11:32’45”} fine as a science or math term, but in normal english radical is “extreme” (in any direction)
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) am 11:33’41”} no, it is the dictionary definition used for the common language. Specialized vocabularies are only used in certain contexts imho..
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) am 11:34’14”} it is a less philosophically mature meaning that – Like other meanings – get revealed in time
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) am 11:34’50”} I’ll stick with the dictionary, but we all have personal meanings for some words
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) am 11:35’26”} mathematical “radical” means a minimization: √100 is a decimation
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) am 11:35’34”} so if you are asking about 3 states of “good” well the more good the better
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) am 11:35’50”} d0h yes, we already discussed that
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) am 11:36’11”} the very very basic things Like mathematics getting inverted creates big problems later
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) am 11:36’34”} * mazy^afk has quit (Ping timeout)
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) am 11:36’52”} you can’t say mathematical radicals make “extreme” numbers in the same sense that quantities can be extreme meaning large
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) am 11:37’02”} happiness, not being “good” is unrelated, so “happy medium” is the place between maximum and minimum: fine
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) am 11:37’09”} * ratbeing ([email protected]) has joined
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) am 11:37’09”} * lakitu gives channel operator status to ratbeing
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) am 11:37’38”} free radicals are also under discussion here then
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) am 11:37’40”} Nuns for example live fastidiously; They are not extremists
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) am 11:38’35”} ”happy medium” works to describt the place between max and min, but it adds an emotional valence to it as well.
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) am 11:39’10”} if you are asking about 3 states of “good” well the more good the better :-)
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) am 11:39’51”} you are a artist with a “terminal” degree in fine arts . . . you are familiar with minimalism & maximalism.
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) am 11:40’43”} sure
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) am 11:40’57”} and the place in between
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) am 11:41’46”} 3 states of anything
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) am 11:42’02”} that looks Like a Good Compare: minimalism as radicalism, maximalism as extremism – & happy medium as neither minimalist nor maximalist . . .
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) am 11:42’30”} welcome back rat.
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) am 11:43’02”} minimalism os somethng else as well tho
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) am 11:43’14”} but ok
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) am 11:43’46”} little versus much.
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) am 11:43’53”} minimal vs medium vs maximum (states of good)
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) am 11:46’36”} “minimal vs medium vs maximum (states of good)” : to me the more good the better. This only relates to “good”. The choice for max good may have for example have sad personal consequences so it might not be chosen.
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) am 11:49’42”} radicalism and extremism are in normal english very similar in meaning so I have to take them out (as part of describing opposites)
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) am 11:49’46”} I think radical Good (meaning minimalism) cp. extreme Good (re maximalism) is better understood by a tradeoff between the two: quantity for radical Good versus quality for extreme Good. the happy medium means half quantity & half quantity.
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) am 11:50’24”} * I think radical Good (meaning minimalism) cp. extreme Good (re maximalism) is better understood by a tradeoff between the two: quantity for radical Good versus quality for extreme Good. the happy medium means half *quality* & half quantity.
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) am 11:50’37”} strike that
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) am 11:51’18”} “happy medium” is fine as a slang expression between minimum and maximum. It adds an unrelated emotional valance however.
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) am 11:51’22”} hmmm
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) am 11:52’08”} “medium /mē′dē-əm/
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) am 11:52’08”} noun
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) am 11:52’09”} Something, such as an intermediate course of action, that occupies a position or represents a condition midway between extremes. “
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) am 11:52’28”} the word medium refers to the place in the middle
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) am 11:52’51”} happy is a describtion of an emotional state
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) am 11:53’23”} ** I think radical Good (meaning minimalism) cp. extreme Good (re maximalism) is better understood by a tradeoff between the two: *quantity of Life* for radical Good versus *quality of Life* for extreme Good. the happy medium means half *quantity* & half *quality*.
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) am 11:53’51”} this: “minimal vs medium vs maximum (states of good)” is fine tho to describe 3 positions on a continnuum
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) am 11:54’11”} *** I think radical Good (meaning minimalism) cp. extreme Good (re maximalism) is better understood by a tradeoff between the two: *quantity of Life* for radical Good versus *quality of Life* for extreme Good. the happy medium means half *quantity *of Life** & half *quality *of Life**.
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) am 11:54’56”} ok so you are not referring to “minimal vs medium vs maximum (states of good)” in your initial inquiry?
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) am 11:55’25”} **** I think radical Good (meaning minimalism) cp. extreme Good (re maximalism) is better understood by a tradeoff between the two: *quantity of Life* for radical Good versus *quality of Life* for extreme Good. the happy medium means half *quantity **of Life*** & half *quality **of Life***.
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) am 11:55’29”} that is more what I mean
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) am 11:56’02”} radical Goodness / quantity of Life & extreme Goodness / quality of Life
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) am 11:57’15”} no comment then
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) am 11:57’24”} I see.
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) am 11:58’04”} fabulous rainbows of well-roundedness.
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) am 11:58’18”} for the “happy medium”
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) am 11:58’28”} I can’t compare those: for example what is “quantity of life”?
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) am 11:58’59”} quantity of Life? decades you live?
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) pm 12:00’32”} so what does lifespan have directly to do with quality of life?
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) pm 12:01’22”} how are they on a continuum?
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) pm 12:02’51”} and how would doing the least amount of good create a longer lifespan?
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) pm 12:03’12”} you can imagine ‘living it up’ – ‘party hearty’ – & similar expressions – costing you years from your life. consider alcoholism for example
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) pm 12:03’55”} radical Good is achieving Goodness thru minimization `efex`.
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) pm 12:04’06”} * radical Good is achieving Good** thru minimization `efex`.
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) pm 12:04’33”} that is again somethig differnt
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) pm 12:04’44”} * Ragtime^ has quit (Ping timeout)
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) pm 12:04’51”} heh – that is what I am describing
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) pm 12:05’36”} minimal good is achieved through doing the least good
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) pm 12:06’14”} radical Good is achieved thru minimalism. cutting carcinogens for example
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) pm 12:07’16”} Are you are referring to getting maximum good results from doung the least actual good, vs the same from doing the most good mthen?
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) pm 12:07’38”} from minimizing wrong
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) pm 12:07’55”} in achieving radical (minimalist) Good
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) pm 12:09’06”} ok so are you asking “which is a better approach, minimizing bad or emphasisiing good”?
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) pm 12:09’27”} very loosely yes
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) pm 12:09’38”} fine!
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) pm 12:09’40”} haha
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) pm 12:09’48”} 20 minutes later!
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) pm 12:09’58”} those to me are the same thing
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) pm 12:10’12”} yes: words are verry specific :-)
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) pm 12:10’46”} * Ragtime^ ([email protected]) has joined
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) pm 12:11’38”} I think configuring radical (minimalist) Good – happy medium Good – & exterme Good on a *case-by-case* basis might be best
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) pm 12:12’19”} this is a soaring stock: buy a lot. that is a known carcinogen: minimize it radically.
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) pm 12:13’13”} both those things create a result moving (something being measured) into a state of having more good and less bad.
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) pm 12:13’46”} but sure they are two methods
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) pm 12:13’57”} well imagine cooking: you add the most for your favorite flavor . . . this does not include removing the unhealthy ingredients from it. those two are separate.
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) pm 12:14’56”} flavour vs health are not the same thing tho
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) pm 12:15’39”} costeffectiveness versus splurging
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) pm 12:15’42”} they are two methods. I can agree on that ok?
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) pm 12:15’59”} they both contribute to how Good the food is
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) pm 12:16’43”} * costeffectiveness versus *indulgence*
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) pm 12:17’08”} in most any circumstance the method the get the most good will be different.. so your case by case approach is imho the norm.
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) pm 12:17’22”} “they are two methods. I can agree on that ok”
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) pm 12:18’02”} I worry phenethylamines have sullied our diligence . . . creating mimickry diligence & creating too much stridence . . .
