t president
Duffer1: they didn'
t want states rights, they wanted the north to stop telling them what to do
Duffer1: macro economics isn'
t as eye catching as the horrors of slavery
mircea_popescu: that vision has meanwhile been realised, and unsurprising anyone with a clue, you mostly don'
t like it.
Duffer1: slavery laws weren'
t modernized until the 50's and 60s, i believe you're underestimating southern racism
the20year: And slavery today isn'
t very popular at all , outside of sexual slavery which is a whole other ballgame
Duffer1: even if they didn'
t intend to keep them, southern laws forbade their existence outside of any context that didn'
t revolve around a white master
mircea_popescu: if the slavery question were allowed to die out rather than used as a pretext for a war, you wouldn'
t still be fighting over the mason-dixon line in 2013 ffs.
TomServo: a fair point, I wasn'
t intending to misconstrue
TomServo: folks claim he made a killing on doge, but won'
t admit it

t that bad for his chi?
KRS|Gotyawallet: well...mt gox isn'
t designed like that. Between bad trades, fees are supposed to eat up your moneies anyway so getting fiat out isnt a problem.

t understand it either pankkake
pankkake: I'm not confortable investing in real estate where I don'
t know the market, too

t think of buying the thing otherwise than "buying an us future with a built in interest rate"
mike_c: it's turning btc into housing. i don'
t see how that will work out.
mircea_popescu: it's not loose money policies that cause those, and loose money policies don'
t cause them in the eu.
Duffer1: wouldn'
t matter even if we did use such a system, housing as you pointed out is is obscenely expensive
mircea_popescu: not to mention you idiots - as there's no better name - still don'
t use torrens.

t mind sparking up some fine herb though..pass the j

t mean you have to
KRS|Gotyawallet: You know what, I analyzed this article but i actually applied critical thinking this time..initially, I didn'

t our design
nubbins`: i can'
t stop staring at that poster
nubbins`: super last minute job, almost didn'
t get it done on time
Vexual: reading popescue is like nos, theres that numbing confusion that might be funny, but you don'
t know where you're sitting, a fruity dry nose of old wood and nosferatu, and a defined sense of nostradamus lingering on the palette.

t have enough time to make a rainbow vomit

t Be Nirvana

t they censored yet?

t want bitcoin to live
the20year2: If that was the case there'd be no problem and i wouldn'
t give a care about listing anywhere
the20year2: We've very seriously looked at doing a DPO but I can'
t round up enough investment to justify it
the20year2: Our lawyer has made me aware of the requirements, the issue here is that I don'
t know of any US investors that we have, SEC allows me to file a PPM if/when I'm notified of US investors ,and since startup we've barred US investment
Duffer1: sorry i haven'
t followed rental starter at all, are you registered DPO or did you ipo?
the20year2: in this case, you have to have teams of workers to do the rehab work , qualify tenants. Sure, you can spend more money to 'just get it done', but if you do that you pay retail for everything, and you can'
t make money by paying what everyone else does
the20year2: mircea , i send out cashflow reports to all our investors now , i don'

markedathome: I don'
t suppose anyone knows of how to extract private keys from the satoshidice desktop app that was around a year or so ago?
davout: but from what i understand, simply adding an order id to the reported executions isn'
t really trivial on your end
davout: heh it doesn'
t, just trying to think about whether there are edge cases that your solution doesn'
t cover, because you know, that's what i do :)
davout: i see a 'Track' field in the statjson that i don'
t have in the regular stat but it doesn'
t look like an order id
davout: mircea_popescu: so i did a quick test but i couldn'
t find an order id in the stat or statjson for me to know which order the reported execution is related to
xoinfinityox: mircea: isn'
t that the whole point of this channel? :)

mircea_popescu: xoinfinityox well apparently they don'
t anymore, not in india.
benkay: nubbins`: but rational market participants won'
t buy if their investment never returns, so how does unprofitable mining work forever?
xoinfinityox: @mircea_popescu other news outlets and tech blogs pick up gov'
t regulation / seizure of btc events
mircea_popescu: xoinfinityox other news outlets don'
t practically exist. what's out there ?

t quite understand that, mircea_popescu.
xoinfinityox: im curious why other news outlets don'
t pick it up
xoinfinityox: i don'
t doubt mircea's veracity, but one source does not a fact makee

benkay: didn'
t your name once only have one trailing 'o', toffoo?
monolithik: (I don'
t think we are disagreeing with eachother) the best technology doesn'
t always win. The one that is first to market that is un-shitty enough to provide some value wins.
mircea_popescu: but yeah, Duffer1 has a point, trilema isn'
t exactly a manual, more like that one asshole instructor in karate that just beats the shit out of you and then laughs.
mircea_popescu: monolithik exactly. also, if there's going to be improvements to the concept, they may be discovered this way. atm we don'
t really know what utterly sucks in bitcoin.
mircea_popescu: xoinfinityox hit the bitcoin category, can'
t hurt anything.
monolithik: I don'
t know about most of the other people involved, but Amir Taaki is a talented engineer.
mircea_popescu: the wilson guy definitely means well. i don'
t see he;s delivering any value yet, but it's way too early. the other thing sounds like it means well, same situation.
mircea_popescu: moving on, did i mention body stockings are kinda cool ? they should put this in seventeen or w/e kids read, "if you don'
t own a coupla good ones you're no woman"
