mircea_popescu: ) that he's very much
a son of his country and
a man of his age. there is still
a very strong vein of "guide literature" from wild west in us fiction writing to this date.
mircea_popescu: unrelatedly, it occurs to me looking through tucker max's sad history past decade (random guy on the internet, thinks "he invented
a literary genus" because wrote some bland, unoriginal "debauchery stories" ; burned out of that [the tucker max makes
a movie in hollywood shit was pretty lulzy] then moved on to... being an investor! burned out of that, now writing advice books on how to be the perfect mate for some woman

a very good can.
assbot: You rated user adlai on 08-Nov-2015, with
a rating of -1, and supplied these additional notes: As best as I can tell, the individual is either mentally retarded, or else expends significant mental power to emulate mental retardation..
mircea_popescu: amusingly, there's actually
a trilema about that derp.
ben_vulpes: then followed

ben_vulpes: asked

a full rest-full API while the angular js is static html that just connects to the backends
adlai: ben_vulpes: see, that guy just got
a better price. i wouldn't call him an opponent.
adlai: positive-sum wonderlands do not involve carcass-treading; they are instead eaten in
a feast, with portions rationed by participation; but "everybody has
a share"

adlai: he could ECDSA sign
a message saying "any further coinbases were mined by impostors, frauds, and early adopters, or all three simultaneously"
assbot: Logged on 09-12-2015 14:48:29; mircea_popescu: my guess is that it's more of

A file used to preserve the state of the internal random pool." any clue what this thing is?
Naphex: ben_vulpes:and think what you will, constraining the operating environment to just chrome is

mircea_popescu: this is actually indicative of the very fucking problem : ethics means, how to live. such as for instance, how to drive
a fucking airplane i nthe tax office if you live in the us. that's ethics. meanwhile the carefully-debilitated ustards actually think ethics means the exact opposite of what ethics means. to them ethics is "the ways to inconvenience your life".
mircea_popescu: average ustard is, i would guess,
a 110 to 115 iq college graduate whose 110 to 115 iq is composed of 150+ iq in beating himself up, 25 iq in establishing relationships and so on and so forth.
mircea_popescu: punkman so it does huh. except it's
a weird thing, i've seen this lots in us-born slavegirls. woman could be well above 100 iq, think herself stupid, and indeed exhibit ~30-50 iq in selected fields.
mircea_popescu: oh right, and i forgot, "c) there's
a shortage of you suckers [and really, alot of money you can give right back to us is "chasing" this deal. totally.]"
mircea_popescu: yeah, totally. what you want when doing
a start-up is to "raise"
a lot of money so you can pay the people who you "rose" it from rent so their real-estate sidelines do really well (in exactly the opposite fashion of what's preached here), while "not optimizing for your size of the pie".
mircea_popescu: "here's the things we want you to think :
a) that you need us ; b) that you shouldn't look out for yourself".

adlai: leaving your mark on the world, like
a pissing mutt, rather than breathing life into
a new one
mircea_popescu: there's something very appealing to idiocy about this process of "invention" through kidnapping
a princess and dragging her through the mud of one's orcish abode.
mircea_popescu: the crayfish, frog and pike story counts in romanian as "wholly original content by al donici", notwithstanding it's
a plain as day translation of previous generation ru material.
mircea_popescu:
https://angel.co/syndicates << in other news, every proprietary scamsystem/kickstarter out there will be sooner or later building
a bug-ridden, half-baked, ad-hoc implementation of the common wot.
adlai: "College is
a place where
a professor's lecture notes go straight to
a student's lecture notes without passing through the brains of either" - Samuel L Clemens
mircea_popescu: "i don't have
a name and i was born without
a face, here's some salmon background" evaluates to p-bignum.
mircea_popescu: anyway, so the point of the "is random derp X ?" (no) article was so that reuters could run
a piece saying "Australian police raided the Sydney home and office on Wednesday of
a man named by Wired magazine as the probable creator of bitcoin and holder of hundreds of millions of dollars worth of the cryptocurrency, Reuters witnesses said."

a joke
mircea_popescu: <adlai> just phrase it as pinpointing the nature and inception of the anthropocene era, their eyes will glaze over and they'll back out of your territory instead of pretending to understand the issues <<< this is an exceptionally retarded approach to keeping idiots in check. it has
a lengthy history of being deployed by "white" people ever before white people were invented, and it always failed. nevertheless, it's stil
adlai: "as

☟︎ adlai: reasonable people do themselves
a disservice by stooping to the language of simpletons
adlai: (from comments) "Please add
a "+1" button to each topic post. It doesn't have to and probably shouldn't do anything except maybe flash once if you push it." << reminds of the crosswalk impatience vents
BingoBoingo: punkman: I just saw it. Writing up
a note.
liquidassets: These Usian Disney chicks keep using 'love' like it's this thing one gives to another to substitute for what one lacks, or
a tool for filling
a void or getting what one wants. Maybe the word they're actually looking for is cock! Do you cock me? Well sure I do baby.
ben_vulpes: also vimeo is
a reprehensible operation who caves unconditionally to baseless dmca notices from SORORITIES
ben_vulpes: dear victoria valentine, she who studies/d film and made an entertaining video about cults and sororities, do drop me
a line.
BingoBoingo: <asciilifeform> iirc

mircea_popescu: i dunno that anyone's downloading
a browser to run your spunk app.
ben_vulpes: and think what you will, constraining the operating environment to just chrome is
a pretty sensible cost-reducing move.
ben_vulpes: also "software" should be depreciated on
a goddamn 2 year schedule it rots so quickly. especially these single-page angular things; they're exceptionally more expensive to maintain as time goes on.
mircea_popescu: i thought it was
a one man show originally too, but apparently there's at least another guy (this CoraCrisT fellow) doing something in between ceo and pr.
mircea_popescu: i would expect it's
a historical value of the software
whiterock slaps punkman around

ben_vulpes: shareholder equity implies
a previous investment round as well.
mircea_popescu: anyway, i dun recall what they charged,
a few % but sliding scale
mircea_popescu: for me for instance it is quite informative that
a reasonable timespan for public consultation is ~2 mo.
mircea_popescu: I wrote
a new book, and it’s out now. But–it’s not funny stories of getting drunk, hooking up and yelling curses at people (though it’s sort of related,
a little). It’s different than that. It’s called “Mate: Become the Man Women Want,” and it’s the definitive guide that will help guys understand women and dating"
mircea_popescu: one could say
a cock-eyed optimist that got mixed up in the high stakes game of world diplomacy and international intrigue
mircea_popescu: "by Taboola Sponsored Links " da fuck, this nonsense model of "advertising" took over the dead media to the point it's even on ap now, but always
