BingoBoingo: I can'
t wait till the end of season baseball bitbets pay out. I don'
t think I have anything outstanding there as amazing as the S.BBET vs S.DICE wager I placed, but I don'
t care enough to look that shit up.
BingoBoingo: Google Translate seems to beat Bing translate in most languages except romanian. Bing translate knew climbing up the mountain was uploading, but I didn'
t trust it.
BingoBoingo: After next week I might be able to GPG or address sign a kill switch statement to that effect, if I won'
t publically connect my identities by XX date Lex pressure is probably a contributing factor, but I should be in a moar tolerant jurisdiction by then as everyone is a tourist nowadays.
mircea_popescu: obviously judging the other side is your domain, but i don'
t see why i'd want to live in a world wherein i can'
t say my name on my own blog. either such a world doesn'
t exist or i don'
t, and the sooner we find out the better.
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: I have the IRL identity on the blog planned on a roughly 1-3 year timeline. Doing it in less than 1 year Might be sudden, but if it isn'
t out in 3 then why the fuck am I blogging. I don'
t plan pseudonymity forever, but I am actively considering more favorable jurisdictions to settle in.
BingoBoingo: Hmmm... I don'
t see having written that yet...
benkay: as for Diablo_D3, he got his feelings hurt one day and hasn'
t been terribly around
BingoBoingo: I swear the funniest are the lower division college athletes who get insulin needles,because those don'
t fo deep enough to spread the roids right round
jcpham: mircea_popescu needles aren'
t free that's why i live on $1 ramen every day
benkay: isn'
t that part of the point of the lethality of such bad habits?
BingoBoingo: benkay: and needles aren'
t that cheap when the pharmacist has the DEA breathing down their neck
benkay: needles aren'
t that cheap
mircea_popescu: no, they aren'
t. dudes are buying by the hour a particular sort of entertainment

t companies tho. this is the vc freakshow circuit.

t know you were allowed to call companies that shoveled atoms "startups"
benkay: i'd make more comments about them but i think they know somebody i already don'
t get along with and this is a very small town
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: Well That's going to be my third post on the new blog. Server side AES keys... Connects to Mixing Web Wallets, can'
t send BTC to BTC addresses...
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: He took roughly $600,m he could have probably got more if his weapon wasn'
t a sandwich...
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: Didn'
t work well for the former acquaintence, but then agian he was fat. Instead of "Take the Money and Run" liek the song he said it was "Take the money and walk briskly" followed by... jail stuff
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo wait wait. this is the one with the weird serb isn'
t it!
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: Lawyer say the 5-0 did the paperwork wrong and shouldn'
t be shit, but this is the most corrupt state in the union.
mircea_popescu: a apparently us minimum security ppl don'
t get internet.
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: It isn'
t always about crushing big things... The louder things crushed should be informing the later things of the hazards of being crushed by having been crushed...
mircea_popescu: roger ver wasn'
t even the largest thing crushed by pirate. he was just the loudest/more exhibitionistic.
mircea_popescu: bad pr. people just won'
t stop doing it already, in spite of it never working.
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: I don'
t think that has as much potential for AMAZING COMPANY Memes as that SolarWIndMIning Company that materialized late last week.
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: pretty much. I especially like the idiots who interpret that as invest in Just-Dice instead of gamble on Just-Dice and get burned because they can'
t remember they read a whole paragraph (pr maybe they tried and forgot?).
mircea_popescu: i mean... kid goes to chew power cables. you go don'
t chew power cables. it goes "well i had a lot of respect for you before but now that you tell me to not chew power cables i don'
t have any more respect for you". gets killed, and then it's a case of "we (who ?!) were killing you in all respects that matter. by being dead."
BingoBoingo: Well of the two risky yet potentially scammy low profit BTC niches, Burnside chose a securities exchange that didn'
t even take half measures pretending safety.
mircea_popescu: it's sad people don'
t realise how much comedic relief they provide.
benkay_: but i don'
t tend to gamble with my working time, i prefer to sell those hours.
mircea_popescu: isn;'
t this exactly like thart earlier guy, celeste or w/e ?
mircea_popescu: like the guys living in houses they can'
t afford to match all the other "equal" guys who also.
mircea_popescu: but it seems to me the false idea that "we're all equal" is at the root of the problem. obviously in reality we aren'
t. but the pressure of confirming this ideology makes people hurt themselves.
pankkake: maybe nastyfans isn'
t but that's it
dexX7: the div payment was more about being a positive sign that they didn'
t miss a deadline again
gabridome: it's a long time I don'
t write and I have a little question to pose
phungus: I don'
t think shareholders own our assets
phungus: I don'
t see how we're connected to ltc-global
ThickAsThieves: but I'll be working from the Amsterdam coffee shops too, don'
t worry
pankkake: you don'
t have to offer all openstack services right away, right? you could do the storage part first, for example
phungus: and I don'
t think we're on lowend box
pankkake: hmm… I probably wouldn'
t use them anyway. I like EU servers with a *lot* of bandwidth
imsaguy: thestringpuller, there isn'
t?
thestringpuller: work is work, I seriously wonder why there isn'
t more sabotage in BTC world
jurov: but if we won'
t see anything from namworld in 2-3 days, then it's true
VanCleef: i haven'
t been able to get in contact wtih him for the last 2-3 weeks
benkay_: wasn'
t so hard now was it Vexual
mircea_popescu: so this is pretty good. us court finds cheques aren'
t money.
Vexual: i really don'
t know what to do with them
the20year3: Although i haven'
t seen any societial/religious breakdowns, the stats I've seen seem to indicate it's worldwide and not contained very much by boarders and people groups
mircea_popescu: and i don'
t grok the pepsi notion. you can'
t be telling me pepsi is anything but "the cheapest drink we can make" ?
mircea_popescu: that doesn'
t change the fact that "20p cheaper" is actually a criteria directing lives.
mircea_popescu: it does, sure. but i don'
t care, i have money and i don'
t believe in feeding everyone.
the20year3: Why aren'
t you consuming a diet of pure chemicals?
mircea_popescu: the20year3 i don'
t base it on anything. challenging it should be based on things.
the20year3: There isn'
t a food problem in the world, there's a corrupt government destroying agriculture problem though
the20year3: It's extremely difficult to produce quality arms in the US , unless you grease pockets the right way you can'
t develop

benkay_: reactionary isn'
t half bad, but it's not the whole picture either
mircea_popescu: i don'
t want to make more "money". i want to make actual money in an environment it's worth living in.
Doctor_Andonuts: Dang, the Activemining transfer time limit ends in a week and I can'
t get on my account because of google auth problems
bgupta: Yeah you'd have the issue of a bunch of unresolved bets, but I think that could be dealt with on the UX side. (Custom weighting could help, but it doesn'
t solve the issue, it just means late bettors would have to bet even more, which could work I guess, but makes the math required, more conplex for users.)
mircea_popescu: the problems were that this is not straightforward to do (as good notation is something maybe half the math grads understand, and wysiwyg notation of curves we don'
t have yet on computers, in spite of 50 years of efforts started at parc)
mircea_popescu: bgupta let's be abstract here. the risk over time functional is probably not a polynomial, but something more c omplex, perhaps even discrete. the weight is linear. obviously these won'
t match
mircea_popescu: you just put some btc on a side along with your bet,
t hwere's an address there
Vexual: mcafee don'
t ask his lawyers anything, he tells them
Vexual: Eventually, McAfee loses his cool. "You know, something went wrong. Fifteen years ago, I had some beautiful software and they took it over. I don'
t know what they did," he says in the video. "It was like the time I hired that Bangkok prostitute to do my taxes while he f*cked my accountant. It was terrible. The same f*cking thing is going on now."
bitcoin42: 'here, take my money, try to trade with it because i can'
t do it myself. if you lose my money, oh well!!!'
