mircea_popescu: asciilifeform
thing is, i could prolly sell
the girls for
their quite literal weight in gold, if it came
to it.
mircea_popescu: thing with gold is
that it doesn't
take altogether much (volume)
to get a kg or
two
mircea_popescu: so it
turns out i own much more gold
than
teh proponent ?
mircea_popescu: let me put it
the proper way : one can not forbid mel from using his craft ; mel can not be required
to "learn fortran"
to "upgrade" and "keep with
the
times".
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform
the item was very much as described, ~"handwritten asm"
mircea_popescu: whenever oen
tries -- it doesn't. for as long as one does not
try -- "it does just fine".
mircea_popescu: irene_yvonne not at
the moment, but conceivably. how did you end up on it anyway ?
irene_yvonne: mircea_popescu:
the article said
that
this isn't one
time offer. So, any other photo ideas?
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform i very honestly dun see
the difference (talking here of ancient opera, not hte ipadization)
mircea_popescu: irene_yvonne be a few hours
till
trinque gets around
to it.
irene_yvonne: i'm setting up electrum wallet as we speak, give me a few minutes and i'll give you
the address
mircea_popescu: irene_yvonne quite ok. i
take it
this;d be irene
then ?
ben_vulpes: nice lipstick graffiti in
that first one
mircea_popescu: totally forgot about
the french

they will strangle
the lot of you like kittens'
a111: Logged on 2015-04-07 00:10 mircea_popescu: just like having a car doesn't alow having gasoline. it's
true
that often people who have cars also independently have gasoline, but
the
two are fundamentally unrelated, and
there is such a
thing as
the fool's breakdown, ie, car's outta gas on
the side of hte road.
mircea_popescu: i dunno how
the original ibn saud
tolerated
the schmucks
tbh.
mircea_popescu: it just boggles
the imagination. why ? what ELSE are
they doing with
their
time ?
mircea_popescu: i very honestly can't begin
to understand how one goes about calling self "saudi prince", but doesn't have
to
type in code every few hours or else riyadh is flat.
mircea_popescu: if
they had enough fucking sense
to a) rocket field and b) bitcoin,
there'd have been no hotel.
a111: Logged on 2017-12-05 19:33 asciilifeform: 'if some government decides
that Bitcoin is not its friend, it can simply ask you, nicely at first,
to relinquish your cyberwallet
to it. I doubt
that
too many of
the Saudi princes
that were recently disencumbered of much of
their net worth while being
tortured by Prince Mohammed bin Salman at
the Ritz-Carlton in Riyadh ended up playing coy '
mircea_popescu: what, it's going
to stay irrational EVEN LONGER
THAN FOREVER ?
mircea_popescu: but
the baked in assumption is
that big ape stays rational ~forever~, and
this still doesn't sum up
to anything good for it.
mircea_popescu: other
than flying in
the face of both logic and evidence, sure.
apeloyee: asciilifeform: just
that 5 positional arguments is a bit
too much
to remember, and I was asking why, say, Count is fourth, and not, e.g. second, so it would be easier
to remember which is which. alternatively, can use named arguments.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform words are "no matter how clever, because
they use far less
technical means"
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform it's not beyuond
the realm of
the plausible
that i fuck some chick and she delivers 3kgs of solid gold 9 months later, by
the same measure of realms.
a111: Logged on 2017-12-05 19:33 asciilifeform: representative sample, 'bloodsucking bankers and governments are unlikely
to be defeated by an algorithm, no matter how clever, because
they use far less
technical means
to enforce
their interests: security agencies, criminal investigators and prosecutors,
tax auditors, courts and prisons'
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform what portion of
this dogecoin is reality ?
mircea_popescu: i
think ~every businessman in luxor center for businessmen made moar
than all my creations summed
together also.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform didn't we do
that
thing about young male's "business wet dreams" ?
mircea_popescu: lulzy : between feb 14 and may 15
the price dropped 90%.
ben_vulpes: question
then arises, how do you know from cunt alone whether
to fuck a la brunette or redhead
mircea_popescu: if your problem is
that you want fuck(brunette) and fuck(redhead)
to be pretty much
the same
thing, how about calling it fuck_brunette() and fuck_redhead() instead.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform honestly, i had no idea what
the argument PRO overloading was.
a111: Logged on 2017-12-02 18:08 asciilifeform: diana_coman: you do have a point ,
though, an ffa
that is an ideal mathematical description of every relevant bound, would look slightly different from
the ffa i actually have,
that has
to actually run on idjit cmachine iron in something like real
time.
