jurov: lol...somebody should add
that
to
those porn accusations on btctalk "beware, mpex is owned by assassin and pornstar"
dub: hope
the pillars aren't load bearing
mircea_popescu: i used
to shot fuckers in
the head and bury
them in concrete pillars when i was his age, never was as much as charged.
dub: so what was
the deal with roger ver?
dub: well yes, I
think I would enforce a single penis policy but I guess you never know
dub: though she has hinted at
the possibility of shared vagoo
dub: im a one gf kinda guy
these days
jurov: at least
these integers.. would save me(if not anyone else) some work
mircea_popescu: (yes, i literally have nasa alumni on
the
team,
they are ruining everyone's weekends with ideas such as "well what if
this is used in outerspace")
mircea_popescu: think about
the "larger integer
than expected" case for instance.
jurov: i'm okay with fractional numbers as strings,
that may be necessary
to preserve accuracy. but wrapping integers into strings is overkill.
mircea_popescu: jurov and iirc
the idea was
that "everything as string" is
the best choice for universal compatibility
mod6: (13:12) <
thepulledstring> XML ftw
mircea_popescu: jurov : you're prolly better off using
the
time string
jurov: i do use
that date at least for unit
testing
dub: I
think answers might be in 1pt blue on purple (can you do flashing marquee in m$ office?)
dub: according
to
this PM questions are best posed in bright green capitals with yellow fill
mircea_popescu: jurov :
the header isn't really intended for your use
tho
jurov: and "Header:" is valid, i don't
take issue with
that. just
that you have
to iterate over it
to find date/time
jurov: for example javascript Date('Sunday
the 28th of October 2012 at 07:11:07 PM') actually does work ... except
that it
thinks it's local
time
thepulledstring: jurov: we can perform an experiment for
the non standard dates
mircea_popescu: jurov everything's strings, what dates you
talkin about ?
jurov: my spine just shivered when
trying
to imagine what kind of xml would mircea come up with
jurov: someone pls kick him,
that was outrageous flamebait
jurov: so... i'll appreciate donations of jsonstat samples (can be redacted, i'm just interested in format of all
the parts)
dub: we could infer
that EskimoBob find pirate
too
tight
jurov: and i wonder whether
they actually
tested parsing with misc clients or he just said "do it so"
dub: on
the forum, he continually rants about stuff
that is less
tight
that he is apparently comfortable with
dub: I
think its safe
to say EskimoBob is well endowed
thepulledstring: "Overhormonal pubescent boys sometimes conjure
this imaginary girl
that has no family, no emotions, no expectations, needs no food or water, spends her entire day nude in a closet somewhere eagerly awaiting
the amorous attentions of
the young magician.
The Bitcoin-killing quantum computer seems
to share most of its
traits with
that magnificent dream of early
teen years. Maybe it’s actually
the same
thing."
knotwork: Bankers ought
to love bitcoin because being limited in supply it lets
them control markets by with-holding medium of exchange as usual plus also possibly unlike gold it can be bubbled
to any arbitrary value for use as "reserves" and might be cheaper
to store
too
sgornick: >
This article is available for a fee.
thepulledstring: erry is nice and resets my password for me because I have short
term memory problems
knotwork: on reconnect if old connect is still present your client appends a number
to distinguish new connect, evidently also making sure
the number falls into
the 9 character nick limit some IRC servers (used
to?) enforce
knotwork: well now you also know a kid who once called his friends from number
ten downing street switchboard
too :)
thestrin1puller: I knew a kid once who smoked with Snoop. Apparently snoop carries a qp with him at all
times? Anyhow he rolled like 9 cigar style blunts.
knotwork: Maybe once usage
tokens are working in Open
Transactions I'll sell some and buy a beer
to celebrate
knotwork: hmm around here its
tobacco
that is free, grams of it lying around in public in ashtrays free for
the
taking
knotwork: oh sure I didnt
tell judge I would not smoke it! but weed is more or less as expensive an indulgence for a starving datacentre-operator as beer is
knotwork: hmm actually maybe
there is no commonwealth anymore? I recall in 70's
there was
talk of getting rid of it
knotwork: I am a Brit,
this is a commonwealth country I should not have
to flee it!
knotwork: hmm or maybe permits werent actually available quite by
the
trial date
they were in
the works for sure
knotwork: well not while its still illegal anyway. if I'd gotten a permit before growing it would have been fine. if I'd had
the money I maybe even could have bought a bale of legal weed
to put on his bench
to claim gee sorry I am late filing for a permit
knotwork: unfortunately I
told judge I would not cultivate again :(
knotwork: brewing attracted
too many fruitflies landlord made me stop
knotwork: I am running so far
two Open
Transactions servers,
the only public OT servers so far set up
knotwork: No I am
taking over
the world (as a loyal subject of King Linus, of course)
knotwork: Did I mention
the
time I called my friends from number
ten downing street's own switchboard and plugged
them into what's on in London in six diffrent languages and
the speaking clock?
knotwork: (See what I did
there!!?! Its implied its me
that worked in CIBC datacentre! <<<<======== !!!!
knotwork: yeah I almost did my shameless self-promoting blurb
there but figured here would be more apropos
thestrin1puller: but in all srsness i
think i may fork over money for an mpex account
knotwork: I'd have
to swear allegiance
to
the Queen of Canada, which would be an insult
to me as a subject of
the Queen of Great Britain and Northern Ireland
knotwork: it'd be an insult
to ask a Brit
to swear allegiance
to
the Queen, hance my not even considering becoming a Canadian citizen
knotwork: Maybe part of it is simply
that it is personal.
They have personal individual person
to person responsibility
to people
knotwork: or hey, maybe actually respecting
them even
knotwork: abe its about mollifying
the masses by pretending
to respect some of
their idols
knotwork: or, comparing Kirk
to Picard for example, its about proper British behavior. (Oops lets forget Sir Mick a moment
there)
knotwork: OneMiner re fans, maybe
the economy is so bad
that selling a few platinum albums or popular movies is all
that holds up
the entire exchequer
OneMiner: Anyways. If
the queen is only good for ceremony and drawing in
tourists...
then let her do
that.
They can be as royal as
they want, just don't use any public monies or lands. Let
them follow
the same rules as everybody else if
these rules are so good. Full disclosure: I'm not a UK citizen.
OneMiner: mircea_popescu
then
the idle are on
top? You've confused me with your list.
knotwork: Because its British! It doesn't have
to make sense it just has
to have a stiff upper lip! Sheesh!
OneMiner: Also what does being a knight have
to do with fans? And why is pop culture grounds for kinghthood?
OneMiner: He was.
Talks about how serious he
took his roles.
knotwork: Hey wait, Captain Kirk didn't get one? Hmm? Wasnt he
too a Shakespearan real stage actor once?
OneMiner: mircea_popescu is
the order right? Homeless on
top?
OneMiner: Though I'd love
the idea of being a knight..... I may have
to refuse.
knotwork: OneMiner you'd insult
the fans by refusing a knighthood if you were Mick Jagger or Captain Picard?!?!
