ag3nt_zer0: cazalla: yeah private tutoring is
a decent thought...
cazalla: no surprise you get sacked if you go into
a public school and throw the curve, buck the status quo etc etc
mircea_popescu: not such
a bright idea. he'll end up finding some 9 year old he really agrees with and doing
a bonny and clyde remake
ag3nt_zer0: i was going to do the world backpack thing 9 years ago... but I was working in
a pizza kitchen and this asshole was all serious about the pepperoni, and I had this image of coming back from seeing corpses on the side of the road in india and not really having much patience to take orders from some fool who gets bent by improper pepperoni placement
ag3nt_zer0: cazalla yes I reckon i could... i have allowed myself to develop
a complex I guess - used to say I want to go somewhere where I don't understand the language at all and where no one knows my name, so as not to be reminded or dragged back into the language muck and the friendship (we know who you are) imprisonment complex - so the logos can come in again
ag3nt_zer0: not that i really believe in the whole "my country" thing that much but just that whole thing about oblivion or caring and the world in
a grain of sand
ag3nt_zer0: mircea_popescu I am employed as
a substitute in 2 other local districts so for the time being I will continue to do that - I guess keeping my mouth shut
a bit more - just trying to save some money get out of this fallen intellectual hellhole for
a bit... I know it's everywhere, but not nearly as bad as here I don't think - I just want to travel 2 yrs and record music and play music, read poetry and literature and engage i
cazalla: apparently he was asking em if they were christian before lighting 'em up so we might have us
a brown shooter for once lol
mircea_popescu: <jurov> sane people either don't give
a fuck or avoid engaging idiots <<< loser people. the lack of an idiot killing instinct is
a larger character flaw than stupidity could ever be.
ag3nt_zer0: as you have. The vast world can be traveled by multiple people. I hope you have
a great time in India as you keep inspiring young people like me. Your inspired student, "
ag3nt_zer0: meanwhile, when they fucking leave me alone, and stop their premature luciferian meddling, I get letters like these, as
a trained MUSIC teacher, SUBBING for ONE DAY: "Dear Mr. G, Hello my name is [] and you have only met me once or twice. I just wanted to tell you that you have inspired me in more ways than one to continue my career in Chemistry. I hope to accomplish many goals in my life, and nobody has opened my eye
☟︎ cazalla: BingoBoingo, apparently he gave
a warning on 4chan but who knows, mebe
a troll
ag3nt_zer0: how could I have been so naive to have dedicated my time and energy to an ideal instead of just saying it was fucked, declaring it fucked like I knew it was, etc... I couldn't. At the base of my soul seemed to be choosing to "care" or "not care" way back when I decided against oblivian as
a mentality... but, and I guess you guys know, it's so fucked
ag3nt_zer0: by
a school that has
a suicided child molestor listed on its educational "philosophy" page
jurov: sane people either don't give
a fuck or avoid engaging idiots
mircea_popescu: the difference between linux and bitcoin is that gavin;s
a laughingstock and erm is invited speaker, and hearn's barely
a shitstain whereby drepper took
a decade to be worked out of the thing.
ascii_field: nah, idea is, drepper is
a real live face on the murder of linux
ascii_field: if i knew 'from whom',
a) no one would believe, why should they b) i'd hang from
a pipe somewhere 'accidentally'
mircea_popescu: right, because why confront the fact that it's
a great day when these muppets manage to find each other's phone numbers.
mircea_popescu: "Following the 2008 elections, then President-elect Barack Obama rang Ros-Lehtinen to congratulate her on her re-election. She hung up on him, believing that it was
a prank call from
a radio station. She did the same to Obama's chief of staff Rahm Emanuel when he rang to confirm the original call was genuine, and only accepted the call after Congressman Howard Berman managed to speak to her."
ben_vulpes: ascii_field: i am, btw, at
a loss as to why that box isn't responding.
assbot: Logged on 28-09-2015 06:01:54; mircea_popescu: "So those vehicles -- 11 million of them and counting -- are damaged goods. They will *never* be able to meet environmental regulations. That means either (
a) they'll need to be taken off the road or (b) environmental regulations will need to be rewritten to include
a carve-out for VW diesel owners." << or ship them to pakistan.
mircea_popescu: nd the hash of the public key (account id) and if the signature is good, it disseminates the transaction to the other rippled nodes operating on the same network that it knows about. These instances pass that transaction on to nodes that it did not receive it from and this flooding should result in it being considered for adoption in
a ledger by the validators running in the network by the process of consensus. All non
mircea_popescu: "Ripple transactions are serializable to
a custom binary format that is cryptographically hashed and then signed by one of two schemes (ECDSA and EdDSA). This signature is then inserted back into the binary serialized form which is hashed again to produce
a transaction id through which it can be uniquely identified. Transactions are submitted to
a rippled node, which verifies that the signature matches the public key

a year with regular news updates, the site began to grow and started to employ talented journalists. After more than 2 years with 4 million unique visitors, 8 million sessions, and 18 000 000 pageviews, it is time to find
a new strategic owner that can develop and push CCN.LA even further."
cazalla: plus the fact you have
a new born baby to fawn over might do
a lot for pain relief
mircea_popescu: i never had to step on claymore mines when i went over to
a woman's place.
ascii_field: the most relevant thing, imho, is that swedish herring thing. europe had
a good 600 years, but the nordicsystem herring is running out. but it sees this gigantic tub full of Phree Stuffz but with some annoying aboriginals crawling on it
mircea_popescu: maybe, at age 16, you imagine this is an idea. otherwise, it isn't. it's much better to have at least
a few dozen dudes you can go drinking with.
mircea_popescu: ascii_field ok, lemme take it this way. suppose you move to
a new apartment building. there's say 100 flats there. in them, unsurprisingly, 100 men and 100 women, on average.
thestringpuller: mircea_popescu: you're
a woman << LOL. well played. I just don't want to deal with the whole process of baby-momma birthing child from my end.
mircea_popescu:
a wellsure, stalin was
a pretty efficient butcher, granted. but no, efficient at ringing up the score, so to speak.
mircea_popescu: anyway, contrary to what mostly russians (perhaps in retrospect understandably) fear, nobody really gonnen nicht-s
a strong russia.
assbot: Logged on 03-12-2014 06:12:02; mircea_popescu: asciilifeform take the earlier point re "stalin made an experiment of making peasant life suck more". it's
a construction.
mircea_popescu: there's
a husband thatthe wife deeply loves, and will die for ; tthen there's
a husband that makes
a lot of money.
ascii_field: it is more like pumping water from
a ship's bilge
ascii_field: mircea_popescu: might have to wait
a while. fella's not esp. old.
mircea_popescu:
a new strategic owner that can develop and push CCN.LA even further." << aka it's folding up
mircea_popescu: <thestringpuller> I couldn't deal with the anxiety related to pregnancy and child birth. << you're
a woman ?
assbot: Logged on 01-10-2015 16:12:44; mike_c: and I know you're bored with BA already (not b-
a), but is there not going to be
a conf4? We could do it in NYC if you all can get in the country.

☟︎ mike_c: pete_dushenski: working on stealth (hehe) project. want to get it
a bit further along before announcing.
pete_dushenski: mike_c i could survive
a trip to nyc, couldn't be worst than my last. closer too.
mike_c: and I know you're bored with BA already (not b-
a), but is there not going to be

☟︎ mike_c: generally fixes itself with
a refresh
mike_c: perhpas
a faulty proxy?
mircea_popescu can't believe that he just had
a discussion about the statistics of childbirth with
a woman that has kids and is otherwise
a statistician and survived untussled.
ascii_field: 'I am member of
a 7 pumping groups that entering costed me 15BTC+.' << ahahahaha
diana_coman: lol fertile like
a ticking bomb or something
mircea_popescu: shush i am
a male, with the patriarchical doctor mindset. women are presumed fertile!
mircea_popescu: depends, had
a friend in timisoara, chief nurse for county hospital, did upwards of two dozen emergency c sections
a day
mircea_popescu: (yes generally means "most women". but if you add the fact that only about half or so are even allowed to try to the fact that about
a third (afaik ~40% but w/e) of the ones that are allowed to try fail, you come to the generally, or at least i do.)

diana_coman: "Almost two-thirds of women who attempt
a natural delivery after having
a caesarean section for their first birth are successful, according to
a study published in BJOG: An International Journal of Obstetrics and Gynaecology."
diana_coman: and in some cases nature is just
a huge idiot
mircea_popescu: but the forceps is more of
a turning/alligning instrument
ascii_field: phun phakt: the invention of the obstetric forceps was originally
a trade secret of some (iirc british) schmuck.
diana_coman: it didn't use to be the practice/allowed so kind of hard to tell (as far as I know in Romania for instance you'd still be directly set up for
a c-section) so kind of biased numbers as to what the body can/cannot
diana_coman: I was out walking after
a solid sleep (which was the one and only thing I needed like crazy)
pete_dushenski: the victims can't lift
a teacup for several weeks, limited to one flight of stairs per day, etc.
assbot: Logged on 01-10-2015 13:55:17; pete_dushenski: Julia Cordray and Nicole McCullough, ftr, you both suck. that you've raised $350k is
a testament to the problem of too much money, not the worth of your unoriginal ideas. don't quit your dayjobs and/or give your rich husband's feet
a big smooch when you get home.

a text that you were the person to start their profile and that they should check out what you said about them on our app." << surely, this can't be gamed! it's 100% certified fresh dummyproof!
mircea_popescu: or alternatively, like it wouldn't make for
a great fucking story, "and then i said hey if i weren't leaving for this uberimportant reason i'd totally marry you while coming all over him, and then he said the hell with reason, marry me, and that's when i said yes"
mircea_popescu: rich guy pays money for having
a meal brought to him by some dude.
mircea_popescu: tho he packs
a disproportionate load of "nice guy with great sense of humour
A++ would treat nice again"
