mircea_popescu: in general companies that can't finance themselves through stock issuance have little or no hope of placing bonds successfully.
the20year2: isn't it flipped in canada?
the20year2: Which was the whole idea behind doing this 2nd round of funding via havelock. So, then i've got to consider what non-share options there exist for business financing. Issuing interest bearing bonds are one of those things that many businesses do when they don't/can't apply for bank financing.
mircea_popescu: well, if you aren't in the business, the logical step would be to talk to someone who is.
the20year2: We should hit $500k in total NAV by June, which is good, but i don't know if it's enough still in order to get a portfolio lender to consider us

mircea_popescu: you don't make a big secret out of the power sockets, or the power tools in the garage

mircea_popescu: russia is very badly landlocked, they can't survive without ports.

mircea_popescu: that doesn't count.
mircea_popescu: notwithstanding that russia didn't send any tanks in the ukraine, either
mircea_popescu: CLEARLY he doesn't have to respond to such evil.
nubbins`: he doesn't recall the usa and canada being at war?
mircea_popescu: @SpiegelPeter I don't recall US ever sending tanks into Canada. Does chasing Pancho Villa = Hungary 1956, Prague 1968, Afghanistan 1979?

mircea_popescu: well no i don't mean work in the sense of doing something useful
deadweasel: i don't even know what I just, I was just mirroring you.
dexX7: you don't need the privkey, simply send it to whateveraddress+checksum
Namworld: Saying your password is a random mix of characters doesn't help much. So it's not really a hint.
dexX7: i don't know my passwords and trust keepass
Namworld: I have a mix of letters, numbers and special chars. Strangely enough, I don't seem to have a problem remembering most of them.

BingoBoingo: The right answer is obvious, but betting agaisnt it can't pay
mircea_popescu: n, and turn it any way you please there’s not going to be room for deplyoing a hundred billion in capital for the purpose of arbitraging minute differences between the 29 y T and the current T. There just can’t be.
BingoBoingo: I am the wheel, you seriously don't want to deal with me. You need to reinvent me.
BingoBoingo: Detcord isn't that bad
asciilifeform: and if so, why weren't the obligatory logic bombs set off
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: this probably wasn't the purpose of 'compendium of basic points...,' but now i'm marvelling over the ancient forum garbage
nubbins`: actually got eulora compiled! but forgot to install a ton of required crystalspace libraries... so didn't get much other than a white screen with "welcome to eulora 0.0.4"
cads: hey mircea_popescu, is there a simple terms explanation for what it means for a brownian process B(t) to be adapted relative to a filtration F_t? I understand that it means that for each t B(t) is F_t measurable, that is, B(t) is always fully measurable against the data F_t carries. In particular we do not require events available only to some future refinement F_s of the filtration.
BingoBoingo: nubbins`: Ans what if we skip the T-shirt and print on fancy bedsheets for a toga instead?

punkman1: "I barely have enough time to eat dinner, shower, and get online to research new cryptocoins to invest in. I have no social life, but this is of my choosing because I can't be bothered to socialize and waste money on a few beers and hang out with friends/women"
BingoBoingo: ;;rate moiety 1 attempted the impossible, don't think other people's money was lost

BingoBoingo: I don't see much Gox neg rating yet...
mike_c: "if we don't trust him, who can we trust? ;)" hehehe
