_popescu: for example "TimSwanson: I work doing market research for Bitcoin companies" << He studies mosses and Lichen
BingoBoingo: mircea
_popescu: Nah, this Tim Swanson is totally an environmental derp, but English is a sloppy language.
ben_vulpes: thestringpuller: <asciilifeform> mircea
_popescu: i don't believe 90%+ of the derpage emitted by "advertising industry" << precisely this. as i understand, cargo cult.
mircea_popescu: ben
_vulpes welcome to the empire of good design, where most customer requests get a "no need for new code, you're doing it wrong" from management.
BingoBoingo: ben
_vulpes: What evidence suggests that...
ben_vulpes: asciilifeform, mike
_c, mircea
_popescu: seems like there's some demand for an ad slot that's invisible unless paid for with a venue-specified minimum bid per day.
ben_vulpes: <mircea
_popescu> eventually. once ben
_vulpes figures out the basics of how to install servers and stuff << i've got the basics down pretty well. sifting through the midden without bringing the whole heap down on oneself is far beyond basics.
BingoBoingo: I dunno mircea
_popescu you're being awfully harsh on downs syndrome patients comparing them to the economist
mircea_popescu: mike
_c: BingoBoingo: bah, nvmnd, sorry. they all suck. <.
mircea_popescu: mike
_c your adhominem religious leadership aside, this whole discussion dovetails neatly into the converse, ascii's curiosity as to why am i giving bitdimes to random sluts.
BingoBoingo: <mircea
_popescu> to get back to fucking, ever left money on the nightstand of a woman that ~wasn't~ a whore ? << SUre, I wanted cigarettes when I came to
mircea_popescu: mike
_c gotta appreciate trilema runs a custom string of hacks off 6 yo wp
mircea_popescu: mike
_c one of the things i did was have ppls prepare code so i can show ads to non-cookied users only.
mircea_popescu: mike
_c it's more like, van is a piggy bank. if i start pulling money out rather than pushing money in it'll prolly debalance it.
mircea_popescu: mike
_c: you're probably already smoking it. you need to have a valuable audience. << the proposition that tardstalk has a valuable audience is outrageous.
mircea_popescu: mike
_c: or, more to the point, say trilema was actually running an ad slot (hint hint). << i'd rather buy, honestly.
mircea_popescu: eventually. once ben
_vulpes figures out the basics of how to install servers and stuff
BingoBoingo: mircea
_popescu: Nah, the thing I posted today is a toad, has warts
BingoBoingo: mircea
_popescu: That's for others. I like the "Bold Text, Bold Claims" approach to ad buying myself
BingoBoingo: mircea
_popescu: thestringpuller: That doesn't seem to be implemented yet...
nubbins`: mike
_c paste a link to the pdf when you're done, yes?
mircea_popescu: <mike

_c hey, how about a bitcoin mud platform ? << zork for bitcoin? the grue ate your coin? << more like a platform, so people can make their own muds but have some basic tools (btc payments, [blockchain based] random dungeon generator etc)
AdrianoOliveira: pete
_dushenski: I follow a link posted on a comment in one of the topics at bitcointalk
BingoBoingo: mike
_c: If you need someone to proofread your Latex file...
pete_dushenski: ben
_vulpes: the twitter will get the fro when the right picture comes along :)
assbot: /jasiri
_x FAA restricts aviation over /hashtag/Ferguson?src=hash...read the reason. I found this on the Federal FAA website
http://t.co/cgIGlFPWWf nubbins`: ben
_vulpes checked her out on facebook, studied "graphic design" at local college
BingoBoingo: mike
_c: So are you still blogging something today about how they all suck then?
nubbins`: mike
_c the grue ate everyone's coin D;
BingoBoingo: mike
_c: That's a good question. Prolly Cloudbet or Nitrogen sports. Maybe Anonibet? All I really do sports betting wise any more off of BitBet is penny bets on baseball and bigger bets against Serena according to the bet against Serena algorithm
BingoBoingo: <asciilifeform> mike
_c: but who and why would spend actual money on it, is a mystery << Pretty much all I'd spend money on is "lol, cocks" or "White Africa Future" (link to interracial gangbang) or perhaps some other mischeif...
thestringpuller: ben
_vulpes: the venues arent customers. catering to a small intelligent audience and having them as your customer is not mutually exclusive
BingoBoingo: ben
_vulpes: Suppose the venue's perspective where it's in the venue commits space X by Y pixels already. Seems bidding from people confident in a text ad and properly sized images would, eventually be a desirable situation. I imagine for you as well since... with a 1% house edge you've eventually got to get volume.

_popescu:mike
_c hey, how about a bitcoin mud platform ? << zork for bitcoin? the grue ate your coin?
jurov: ben
_vulpes do you have an example of an ad that is stylistically adapted to various publishers?
BingoBoingo: ben
_vulpes thestringpuller: These are the important questions which are probably better debated now than when you throw a beta label on it
thestringpuller: ben
_vulpes: you're really bad at advertising. if you want text only you'd need support a inconography. The disney font is synonymous with the bran.
jurov: ben
_vulpes: what is that your service everyone is talking about? i'm 10 days behind with the lawgs and your blog is dead
princessnell: mircea
_popescu that's a good idea. get some synergy going. it will take some easing into.
BingoBoingo: jurov: There's that coinroll ad that shows up on BitBet and othe places. Atm ben
_vulpes's network would be incapable of supporting it
mircea_popescu: yeah ben
_vulpes has a point. i think the entire appeal of the tomb raider chick was her being subversive.
BingoBoingo: mircea
_popescu: Earlier today it was... missing
princessnell: hey mircea
_popescu. scholarship has given way to subversion at the moment, which is an improvement. how's bitcoin baronship?
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo: Where's this comment mircea
_popescu left on Tim Swanson's blog? << it just said "how about you come to b-a" with a webirc link
BingoBoingo: mircea
_popescu: Kid got shot. Was unarmed, going to college this week if he wouldn't have been shot.
HeySteve: mircea
_popescu it'll be all text
BingoBoingo: ben
_vulpes: I think the point is he wants to expose people to his logo
mircea_popescu: so in the end, ima count pete
_dushenski 's summary as accurate : "Serious scholarship of a work is merited if and only if that work is itself a piece of serious scholarship."
BingoBoingo: mircea
_popescu> "so when the police approached you, why did you open fire ?" "i thought we were being invaded by aliens" "i see. fair enough. case dismissed" << THought it was the Chicoms invading
BingoBoingo: mircea
_popescu: PGP appears once, in a footnote in his second PDF, GPG appears not at all
BingoBoingo: mircea
_popescu: Some people should not self publish, because they can't understand "bookness" especially when it comes to presenting "bookness" electronically
BingoBoingo: mircea
_popescu: the footnote 891 Interacting with fiat institution, a guide by Mircea Popescu, SEC Charges Bitcoin Entrepreneur With Offering Unregistered Securities, SEC charges bitcoin entrepreneur for share offering from MarketWatch and SEC Alleges Texas Man Ran $4.5 Million Bitcoin Ponzi Scheme from LexisNexis
BingoBoingo: mircea

_dushenski: that's the china book
punkman: pete
_dushenski: didn't see a mention of the colored coin treatise in your post
punkman: pete
_dushenski: I don't think younger people are that much better at troll detection
ben_vulpes: <mircea
_popescu> kyuupichan the eth scammers pretty much admitted it was all wash trading in some blogpost recently << links, anyone?
