I'd be impressed. Looking around
I'd usually prefer most of them to just die already
mircea_popescu: the 18 so it's 180 now, comes to 520.
i point this out. she proceeds to add them again correctly this time, and comes to 488.
i refuse this alt-arithmetic too. she does it once more, hands me 82 pesos in change for my 400.
i refuse this once again, hand 40 pesos back to her and leave.
☟︎ mircea_popescu: in any case asciilifeform, thius is the primary driver for the stupidification of everything, and it's genuine. people are stupid. either you build your cash register as the mcdonals iconographic abomination, or they stick to doing it "by hand". like idiot argentine woman yest.
i buy a carton of cigarettes, four litersd of milk and two lighters. she does the addition on paper. first she adds 80 + 260 + 18 but misplaces
mircea_popescu:
I mean, who in the marketing industry is able to decode a 15K€ Web graph even if it contains loads of useful informations? And that was our number #1 feature. Now,
I acknowledge the graph data was essential. We should have delivered them in an more effective and practical way: spreadsheets, data views (who are the influencers, how can
I contact the websites owners, recommended keywords for Facebook/Twitter/newsletter
mircea_popescu: "
I think we had too much hesitation in the decisions about what we were able to do and on the delivered product as well.
liquidassets: Birdman
I say not in our lifetime because from my point of view, we win, we already won, it's just the matter of convincing Alf of this fact
mircea_popescu:
i suppose on a 20 to 50 year timeframe, it's drastically improbable anyone with a 1337 satoshi a day in income can possibly starve.
Birdman: These are interesting times to be alive, that is for sure. And
i have a bezzle bag so if
i do somehow keep my imediate freedoms through the crash of fiat and rise of sound money my mouth will be fed.
☟︎ liquidassets: trinque true, better not to worry about what is or is not, did
I really need to put an IMO?
mircea_popescu: trinque in fairness,
i only imagine there's gonna be camps for black ppls.
Birdman: Thing *seem* to be pretty bad, but ive only been around 20 years so
I i see it all with that bias. Why do you say not in our lifetime?
liquidassets: <heavy sigh>
I'm not sure what my next move is
mircea_popescu: (in other news, okcupid's "ai" matching system is an utter useless pos. my own network creates usable hits with a 50% probability or better, by the 100s/day - and
i didn't even KNOW
i know chicks on okcupid in the first place. their crapolade made me click no about five hundred times in a row.)
Birdman:
I guess the man hating isn't there, but you know, the crazy feminists who think a guy eyeing a hot girl is somehow violent and un just. They just know all too well that their sexuality is empowering, so those who lack it are intimidated. Sort of like the beta male crying for fairness with socialism or communism, but really just knows his weaknesses and cant compete in the true fair system.
mircea_popescu: (the counter doth actually exist - men that genuinely hate women.
i suspect the driver is that men are, for some inexplicable reason, actually petrified of cunt. it seems innate.)
mircea_popescu: but that unicorn, the woman that actually hates men,
i've not encountered myself.
mircea_popescu: honestly,
i've yet to meet a woman (not mayo-gendered abominations,
i've really not met any nor do
i intend to) that actually hated men. there's a very mean streak in women generally, but visible with the naked eye in just some, where they truly and irationally haet beta boys, for some definition of beta that may be at first confounding.
Birdman: Ehh maybe
i mean misandrists then, feminazis. Or that you've accomplished an incredible feat.
mircea_popescu: what's "pussy crushing" anyway ? simply getting laid ? or some bizarre fetish
i never heard about ?
liquidassets: LOL yeah probably...never felt too proud about them, even though
I "should" because of how they look
Birdman: If you are proud of your accomplishments you wont be threatened by anothers
i guess.
liquidassets: Birdman natural as in
I felt it before when in a 'menial' job taken AFTER accomplishments
I was proud of and some surecock comes waltzing in telling everyone how mommy and daddy OWN a grocery store back in Minnesota and so blah blah...And
I let him get under my skin
Birdman: Natural as in most people will end up like that?
I dont intend to grow into that situation.
I cant speak for anything outside of my own experiences, but as the world with open arms accepts socialism, you can expect more unfounded entitlement.
liquidassets:
I think Birdman that it's a natural thing to want respect as you get older, especially FROM the younger. Because most younger are worthless anyway and they never got respect from their peers either
liquidassets: Birdman and this is where
I think there's an actual generational difference, the younger doesn't just automatically give it
liquidassets:
I'd prefer to eat and not think of it as shit..?
liquidassets: Don't care really,
I'd be impressed. Looking around
I'd usually prefer most of them to just die already
☟︎ mircea_popescu: here's a fun fact : about half the actual rapes (not hurr durr
i'm on social media and bored) require a fourchette stitch.
liquidassets: Thanks funkenstein_
I tried to dpaste it. the youtube must be an abridged version
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform
i suspect that a lot of the leaks are chained
liquidassets:
I like to think that
I'm blowing her mind right now
liquidassets: so
I disappointed her, because that's what she was
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform
i think the love and hate part are mixed in about even proportions
liquidassets: LOL did he say that?? If not
I'd like to see THAT one
mircea_popescu: "Barcelona’s Mobile World Congress 2012:
I remember seing nice pictures of nice cocktails and nice restaurants from the business developers;
I remember seing lots of appointments with potential customers;
I remember it ended up with no customer but a partnership;
I still do not know the cost of the operation, even as a cofounder." awww.
liquidassets: Stubborn creatures but
I cannot blame them...dealing with bullshit their entire lives
liquidassets: Not sure where
I first found it/read it, it wasn't on the internet, but wasn't a book either...
mircea_popescu: liquidassets very good. good enough to sign on, actually, even though
I've not written it myself.
liquidassets: Wheels turning...The only lease
I have that
I'm aware of is to myself
mircea_popescu: "The dating continued a couple of times more:
I was definitely attracted by the innovation of the product (mining and mapping networks of Web content)."
mircea_popescu: right-o. because the one thing we're truly committed to, beyond anything and everything else, is that there MUST NOT BE any god in the god damned machine. what if there were and he started spewing death warrants and whatnot! no, no, gimme lukewarm mediocrity as a prior and let's see how well
i do!
mircea_popescu: motherfucker. "this stupid shit
i did never works - clearly
i must do more of it. surely if 5 grand worth of advertising is a waste, 5 mn is just the ticket. obviously every article in every "media outlet"
i ever read that fell within my field of competence was below stupid, but clearly the way to inform oneself is to read more fishwraps."
mircea_popescu: "oh,
i've went to all the witch doctors
i could find, none of them knew anything" "have you tried the hospital ?" "wut"
mircea_popescu: "
I really would have needed a critic who said:" /me points out to Michal Bohanes that he has published no ready means of contact. not that it matters, you'll see your name in google next you look for it. anyway : next fucking time, ask #b-a.
mircea_popescu: "Although
I would say that
I am reasonably well connected, have many startup CEO friends, go to events and am regularly speaking to mentors, no one ever sat down with me and systematically challenged me about the Dinnr concept."

I begin to believe they're just targeting the intelligent outright as a matter of.. what do you call it... full spectrum domination?
mircea_popescu reviewed them in 2012. the answer was, come to think of it, very much like monero's. (oh hurr durr we're visionarily important and lalaal). so
i decided to give them all the time they could possibly need to figure shit out and well...
mircea_popescu: ditch the idiots and come here on his own fucking motor power.
i'm not going to ask him anything, the most
i might do is nod.
assbot: Logged on 29-05-2015 23:16:21; mircea_popescu: ;;later tell sipa if you want to join #b-a and actually work on bitcoin for a change,
i'll rate you so you can voice.
BingoBoingo: "
I wish the devs were as active as they were in beta. Things got out of hand one time and all active players, save two, were permabanned over the course of a 40 day ban spree. The two remaining players survived due to a workaround and built the community back up."

☟︎ danielpbarron: with any luck they'll program those cars to move out of my way when
i come up behind them in the passing lane
renart: it'll never come down,
i tell you
mircea_popescu:
i guess it boggles his mind because it makes a point he doesn't wish to hear. anyway, race has exactrly nothing to do with it : woman can either be my slave, out to carve your empire into the dust, or one of the empire's own aspirationally-vacuous wastes of flesh, brigading social media so that maybe it has some effect on reality.
mircea_popescu: "Women, white and black, who do not qualify for management, are usually not worth anything on the staff, and generally steal at about 20%, with lower paid working black girls less than half as likely to steal as their management counterparts, and white girls on staff infinitely more larcenous than the white girls in management.
I won’t even try and explain this, as it boggles my mind." it doesn't boggle my mind any.
mircea_popescu: "Black female managers are rarely effective and steal at 50%—fully half of the ones
I have worked with being confirmed thieves." << lioness hunting for the clan as opposed to the ball busting harpy gioving herself and everyone else aneurisms. makes sense, huh.
mircea_popescu: might be the most competent thing
i read all week on the open wwwbs.
mircea_popescu perceives absolutely no value in any of these. last
i had any interest, it was a winamp install. 20 years ago or so ?
mircea_popescu: yeah
i know,
i'm just deploring my own sad situation here.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform this is particularly a difficult industry for me because
i never listen to the radio ;
i never commute ; if
i do
i use a towncar and have live people to talk to ; etc.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform
i'm certainly not hiring you wtf. that'd be sad.
mircea_popescu: no. it is not possible to hire nonstupid people. the very definition of hiring includes "
i am too dumb to live"
mircea_popescu: "There is no requirement to buy ten, but raising retails from 89-cents to 10 for $10 increases sales from a case to a pallet on most items, when you have the right customer base..." << which reminds me of a point
i wanted to make. yo ben_vulpes it's pretty dumb to offer grunt 30. offer 28.75. for one thing, it makes it look like real thought went into all that precision, and the sort of dickless imbecile he is will spe
mircea_popescu: e her tits melt in the kitchen, did you?" <<< aaactually... yes,
i did.
assbot: Logged on 15-12-2015 19:39:41; ascii_field: well
i'd happily move if
i were 1337 enough to take the gradient, rather than BE the fuel
mircea_popescu: <asciilifeform> but
i don't get how living there gives you an edge << obviously you never lived in new york. ask mike_c
assbot: Logged on 17-12-2015 23:48:37; BingoBoingo: Murican Poverty: "Big Mamma is your ideal customer. Yes, she might eat an entire rotisserie chicken while her children devour a box of snacks. But not only will
I look the other way,
I’m willing to pay some retarded white guy $10 an hour to clean up her mess. She is the cash bomb. No customer, not Bill Gates or the Dyke Queen of West Germany spends as much money on retail food as Big Mamma. This is not
renart: ah jesus
i thought freenode's nick grouping actually worked
mircea_popescu:
i would estimate liberalization takes the peso to 25ish. that's 30% up not 40% down.
