The20YearIRCloud: Why do you assume I don't have one, nor one could be easily armed/developed?
gernika: I don't work with low wage people.
ben_vulpes: i don't really buy that part decimation. the people who do rounds easily understand the problems of shitty software, and are loath to hire zeks at sub market wages.
asciilifeform: after several weeks of 'doctor it hurts when i do that / don't do that' i threw in the towel.
mike_c: i don't know how resistant yandex is to black hat seo.
kakobrekla: <mircea_popescu> what i don't get is the partial russian translation here and there < my guess is it wants to justify its legitimacy by providing translation service.
mircea_popescu: what i don't get is the partial russian translation here and there
The20YearIRCloud: I don't think saying walter white wasn't an adult is kind of stupid
mike_c: i don't like circle's look. not as good as ethereum.
mike_c: i don't think package is the issue there. more the parimutuel/weight system.
The20YearIRCloud: Which is why i brought it up with you now, as I don't want to give a few away and then them yell at me saying they couldn't claim their 0.1btc
mike_c: hehe. "I don't have time" 'then use space' "I don't like space!"
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform sadly i don't need it very precise, but it hastabe 0.3% or so.
mircea_popescu: i misspoke., i don't care about that, it just has to be in a range
nubbins`: i don't know why people think big-time drug logistics and btc overlap in any significant way
thestringpuller: additionally as property if you own said property for X amount of time (i don't know the exact figure in this state), you get the capital gains waived.
thestringpuller: yes but that's not included if say you pay me X BTC to mow your lawn all year and I don't convert BTC to fiat
mircea_popescu: fluffypony i was thinking, "prolly fluff, he uses all the weird things" but then i was like, give the guy a break, don't say anything
mats_cd03: i don't get it.
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo "I've at this point given up at editing any of the text at all. " << this is often a clue the whole thing is not worth publishing, as painful as may be. ie, if one guy can't be bothered to spend an extra minute on the strength of the material, there's cause to believe a thousand readers shouldn't be asked to spend that one second it takes them to decide they don't want it.
mircea_popescu: i don't see the problem, she could just as well be 16 or w/e
mike_c: interesting. thankfully i don't do my company's books.
TheNewDeal: I just don't like the lag periods
TheNewDeal: I don't care what 3rd quarter for S&P500 is either. All I care about is bet closing and even resolution date (not necessarily when bitbet resolves it)
kdomanski: "my slaves don't seem to be able to determine who their master is. i confirmed they can talk to zookeeper just fine."
BingoBoingo: I still don't understand why Yarvin fucking did "Jets" as his fallback to x86 derivatives sucking
X-Rob: mircea_popescu: I don't think I used the word suck.
nubbins`: the fonts in the .ai file weren't outlined, and i don't have the fonts on my system
qq1932: This project is discretionary for me and if I don't find a backer based on this pre-qualificaiton then it is not happening. I have two other outside commitments that are very serious.
qq1932: mircea_popescu: I don't know how else to put this. I want to pitch just someone who has the level of physics understanding that they would have understood and funded the Watt engine (as an IP play, which is what it was) in 1700 (70 years early.)
qq1932: mircea_popescu: there is no "secret" component to this, I don't need to hold anything back. Of course, that only matters to those self-qualifying as having enough understnading to discriminate between the Watt's steam engine 70 years early (1700) and snake oil.
mircea_popescu: that's ok, i don't do private anything with people i don't know.
hanbot: mircea_popescu i don't think it's that simple, most people "beating their children" would likely result in the kids hating their parents rather than hating fucking up
mircea_popescu: (i don't mean the techs that made it were idiots, they were competent. i mean their managers were idiots)
kdomanski: mircea_popescu: I don't know about the cams, but the driver's front window is an array of mirrors, usually
mircea_popescu: i have nfi what to do here, i mean the town is hooker central, but i don't imagine people would much like the italian arrangement
mircea_popescu: i don't mean other places don't have good food, but if you're european/(french-italian branch), there's just nowhere to go.
mircea_popescu: decimation: TheNewDeal: i've heard that black bears aren't so aggressive as long as you don't corner a cub << bears generally aren't aggressive at all. felides&canides are aggressive if very hungry or during mating season, but otherwise you can get out and people have for ages. animal aggressivity is a cost/benefit consideration, they';re not the convenient antichrist retarded human shamans preach.
decimation: TheNewDeal: i've heard that black bears aren't so aggressive as long as you don't corner a cub
mircea_popescu: nubbins` you know i don't get this general conspiracy to stuff monkeys down kids' throats
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo: X-Rob: I've rented hash and pointed it there for 48 hours. Hopefully this drives the pool diff up or... << i don't get it, the pool diff can't be arbitrarily set ?
kdomanski: I don't think so
PeterL: (and sometimes if I am using webchat and don't log in fast enough I have to come up with a different username)
thestringpuller: then i the merchant decide "well i don't feel like refunding you"
Apocalyptic: I don't even...
mircea_popescu: everything is an iteration, yes. i don't personally care what anyone does, but the thing that distinguishes me from your run of the mill amoeba living on my penis
qq1932: (hi, thanks. I'm the same startup founder as before previous, don't have anything specific to say but connected with a couple of people here.)
mircea_popescu: tbh i don't care specifically what they did, they're not paying me to consult. i just care i clicked a link in an article and it doesn't go now where it go when i put it there, so that's that : out goes the link and the venue is banned
mircea_popescu: well i don't have the good hats.
jdanks: that's what i hear, but what can ya do really? people don't like poop
asciilifeform: decimation: i don't see it.
mircea_popescu: "so i call the suicide helpline and they don't want to fucking help. they keep going about how they're there to help people NOT kill themselves. fucking scam. call it suicide fail line dudes!"
X-Rob: I don't know this part of the code, but apparently in work.py, there's ' target = 2**256-1' which you can change to target = bitcoin_data.difficulty_to_target(2048)
X-Rob: I don't think you understand the problem.
X-Rob: mircea_popescu: I don't know. The pool shouldn't be requesting a hard reset that often. It means that the pool thinks the block time is 20 seconds-ish.
mircea_popescu: chetty: jurov, well the premise probably not but the goal I suspect he would approve of << not really. i don't mind the bulk of male derpitude, just as long as my women insulate me from it. actual extermination tho is an iffy proposition, you'd end up with a huge bulk of marginal and nul women with nothing to occupy them. best not alter nature's balances.
mircea_popescu: i don't need everyone to be an idiot, i just need a few to make my case.
mircea_popescu: suppose i don't multiply 5 x 7, but i do a fft over a large domain.
mircea_popescu: you don't need the quotes i dont think
asciilifeform: jurov: 'doctor, it hurts when i do that.' 'don't do that.'
artifexd: I don't think it is claiming "deep wisdom". It is an attempt at extracting a chuckle. Maybe a laugh. That's it.
artifexd: Yeah. I see the rss feeds for resolved and new bets. I don't see an rss feed for bets placed.
ziggla: i don't think any credit agency or bank would take my funds on bitbet as a securely held asset of mine.
ziggla: i also don't agree with that methodology either way
mircea_popescu: ziggla the difference is that you perceive this theoretical 3rd way, of "cancelling bets". i don't.
ThickAsThieves: <+ziggla> but i don't see the purpose of them lying /// are you like 11yo?
mircea_popescu: well i don't have one.
ziggla: but i don't see the purpose of them lying
ziggla: i don't get it
mircea_popescu: anyway, yes, im entertained. and riga looks great, nobody thinks of it as a vacation destination, but i don't recall ever hating it there.
ben_vulpes: which, as others have said, "i don't care about how many characters per minute my programmers can type, but whether they type the *right* characters"
mircea_popescu: jurov hey, i don't mind, by all means, go ahead.
mircea_popescu: but it's not what i said. i merely remarked on a particular mental complex, wherein the western agitprop calls things they don't like and can't derride "inexistent" a certain way
mike_c: i don't know about stand alone, but it is when combined with the exchange rate in any fashion.
punkman: I don't see the purpose of their algorithm
mats_cd03: what is with you and this magic 15 number. i don't get it
mircea_popescu: i mean don't get me wrong, active experimental research in "o yeah, those asics are that cool ?" is quite valuable and a good use of one's time.
decimation: well, I don't deny that resolution is important too
asciilifeform: don't be so quick to say 'never.' i went recently to a junk peddler, he has a sealed in box 'vic-20.'
X-Rob: decimation: I feel that I'm always at the bottom edge of the market of rig hire. I don't want to appear to rip people off
decimation: I was thinking to myself this evening: what if Washington DC were washed into the sea tomorrow? usg's contingency plans would probably be to move the government west, in the middle of the kulaks they have been harassing for decades. I don't think that 'contingency usg' would survive as an entity that we would recognize.
KRS-1: I don't publish anything.
mircea_popescu: i dun credit this. you kill a guy, you've killed some guy. there's no "i had to kill him", is there ? there's no "i had to eat this icecream". you eat it, you get fat, you don't, you don't.
mircea_popescu: i don't see it. so in both cases you don't feel like sleeping that week
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform> irregular schedule because you don't feel like sleeping in a given week is rather different from because phone rings and you have to get in a wheeled coffin because otherwise starve. << I prefer to think of my car as an ablative Iron Man suit that protects me from exertion and damage at high speeds
mircea_popescu: i don't get it. shouldn't 2 th breeze through ?
The20YearIRCloud: there's areas where I live that they don't care what you put up or what you live in (Sheds included), but those aren't areas I want property in
mircea_popescu: i don't think sleep improvement is impossible per se. but i do think what's herein contemplated is of the level of improving cpu caching with drills, lathes and other mechanical tools.
mircea_popescu: but anyway. i don't expect improvement here.
artifexd: I don't want anybody to feel bad. If I lose the 2btc it is not going to come close to affecting my net worth at all. As tat says, the risk/reward seems about right.
pete_dushenski: don't gut your foot now, i imagine it'd hurt
ben_vulpes: call me a poorfag, but i don't get the risk.
BingoBoingo: Fuck me, this could resolve as no the time I don't have money on it.
guruvan: lucky for you, I don't earn money in USD, so it's not so much an issue as it could be
BingoBoingo: ;;later tell strtp`fndr This hangover has lead me to a decision. I won't be investing in flappy airplane, so don't worry about that test.
mircea_popescu: dude goes to doctor, "hey doc, if i do this it hurts" "so don't do that"
mircea_popescu: i guess these known affectations are overpopulated and so don't hold as much perceived cachet,. huh. random tramp invited for her tits and drunken antics at some party wouldn't get away with claiming she's the real niece of napoleon's first wife quite as well.
fluffypony: oh no, I don't have boost...building boost is going to take a few hours
justusranvier: BingoBoingo: Don't care about disk space. I'll switch cold storage clients once btcgui (from btcd) is out of alpha
jurov: i don't think bot can write this
