mircea_popescu: mike_c, o wow, how is bitbet negastive ? she lost a bet meanwhile ?
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: the usual reply of audience is 'why ought we give $bignum to you and not the 9,999 other wankers'
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: why would you phrase it that stupidly << the answer is, because i haven't the titanic brain that would be needed to come up with a 'smart' way to phrase it. so generally i don't bring the subject up, unless asked first. 'basic research' is a fundamentally... unreasonable proposition from the ROI standpoint. i'm not particularly good at justifying unreasonable things.
jurov: mike_c no you are foreigner xD
BingoBoingo: Chris_Sabian: Burning the last of the venture

jurov: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/One_Laptop_per_Child#Open_source_vs._dual-boot_systems apprently it did not go very well for microsoft
mircea_popescu: mike_c: pankkake: ipo USD/share: $0.33, 2po: $0.345, current: $0.227 << o wow srsly ? for some reason i had it in my head they started at a 25cents
mircea_popescu: mike_c: like hunter s. thompson needs fucking BI to improve his writing. << where would hts be w/o bi!!1
asciilifeform: mike_c: it wouldn't be too far off the mark to say that i like common lisp because 'slime' is possible for it, rather than vice-versa.
asciilifeform: mike_c: http://common-lisp.net/project/slime
asciilifeform: mike_c: lisp (of whatever variety) without emacs (or quite similar auto-indenting editor) is unthinkable.
Naphex: mike_c: i doubt ZF had anything to do with mtgox vulns
benkay: <Mats_cd03> benkay: http://www.lispcast.com/clojure-web-security // i read that quite a while ago. a few kinda boil down to 'don't be retarded'.
Apocalyptic: mike_c, $0.227 is 50% of $0.345 ?
moiety: ;;later tell mircea_popescu tshirts?

nubbins`: mircea_popescu: best description of a vulnerable mess with cool features you ever heard, too. this is because i both used to be into chicks with bunches of piercings, and also write code
mircea_popescu: i have no idea why exactly, as mike_c aptly pointed out size and especiallyu outsize is the worst enemy of good financials,
mircea_popescu: jurov:<mircea_popescu> [00:33:27] jurov, i see you +0.3 btc or so. << so i should value fmpif position at current offering sell price? << i've used the 30day average. seems reasonable valuation for a held security, but it's not mandatory, you can value whichever way you think reasonable.
mircea_popescu: !up ET__
benkay: random_cat_: get together again on Tuesday? i'll stick around this time, i promise
jurov: <mircea_popescu> [00:33:27] jurov, i see you +0.3 btc or so. << so i should value fmpif position at current offering sell price?
asciilifeform: ;;later tell mircea_popescu this'd be the pill against your smoking hdd controllers, as i gather.

benkay: <Mats_cd03> clojure is a vulnerable mess // specifics?
BingoBoingo: I have a feeling mike_c already curses the existence of f.mpif
decimation: mircea_popescu: "the pitch of despair of the Franks and the Goths and whatever other barbarians by far and quite widely exceeded the bitterness of actual Roman Romans " So you are saying that Argentina is roughly upper Germania ca. 700? Sounds legit.
BingoBoingo: For people who want firepower and a $200 colonoscopy http://www.stltoday.com/news/local/crime-and-courts/st-louis-police-to-auction-gangland-era-tommy-guns-to/article_e44a4553-e50f-5ec4-ab9c-3cfb3e9ecf65.html
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: That car anology explains sucinctly why I stay with automatic transmissions. I respect the limits of my ability to control a motor vehicle and anything that reliably saves me cogitive overhead is welcome.
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: Looks like we might have to call it 200 satoshis
thestringpuller: mircea_popescu: unfortunately usagi doesn't keep comprehensive records like yourself so I have to guess
thestringpuller: mircea_popescu: the funny thing is usagi claims you copied his NYAN fund. But in actuality you took the concept and did it correct. Despite how many scammers were parading as "asset issuers", you managed to recoup ~52% of the original capital invested. MPCD.A based on your statements actually made a profit (since MPCD.A got paid out before B and C of course), etc.
bitcoinpete: fluffypony: mircea_popescu kakobrekla since i'm still not 100% clear on the pirate insurance thing, i've updated the usagi article to include the milk story, since that seems to be more solid footing
BingoBoingo: Naphex: Not from me atm. mircea_popescu has some issues with it when he needs to log in.

fluffypony: mircea_popescu: how's your Spanish coming along?
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: Yeah, likelyhood of the outcome is pretty even, but weight is finally keeping late bettors in check.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: as for what the germans did there - if i recall, they built self-contained villages and had little to no contact with the locals.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: where, as a boy, right before leaving, i traded a shoebox full of toilet paper money for 1 usd.
