mircea_popescu: anyway, to be perfectly clear, i don't think kakobrekla did anything wrong at any juncture, nor am i privately holding anything against the man. while the outcome is miserable, i dun think there's necessarily much that could have been done to prevent it. ☟︎
mircea_popescu: and in spite of being uncharacteristically verbose for a human being... apparently i don't write everything either.
mircea_popescu: i invent things by degrees and i can't always and on the button answer as to the logic of things. they go in a context. i know for a fact the arrangement make sense in 2012, but entirely hazy as to the reasoning.
mircea_popescu: ascii_field> bbet long pre-dates my study of mircea_popescutronics, and i have nfi <<< it's not terribly clear to me either, after all these years.
mircea_popescu: ascii_field it's how it's normally done, yes.
mircea_popescu: course not, cuz if you're going to you're best not be seen.
mircea_popescu: so then no, mp isn't learning any ada. if mp wanted to learn ada, he would have.
mircea_popescu: that i'm perpetually going to pick up the pieces. i'm not.
mircea_popescu: ascii_field let me disabuse you of that notion right now.
mircea_popescu: i must say the experience has been rather sobering as to all sorts of naive assumptions as to value, wealth and economics in the bitcoin world.
mircea_popescu: in other news, bitbet headed into receivership : http://trilema.com/2016/the-greatly-anticipated-bitbet-sbbet-february-2016-statement/#comment-116766
mircea_popescu: nice work with the html parser, how's it going ? ☟︎
mircea_popescu: heya lexborisov
mircea_popescu: they apparently didn't realise this going in. no ai in pr, yet.
mircea_popescu: fluffypony> danielpbarron: it's his strategy <<< well, makes perfect sense. 3-2 win looks a lot better than 5-0 win, sez google pr. ☟︎
mircea_popescu: but as a sidepoint, this "style" thing is a lot like make-up. most young women look great without it ; in some cases, when well applied, can turn even mediocre women into total knockouts. but by the time it's measured by the lb, it ain't doing anyone any good.
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo i have nfi what's going on with those two articles. they don't even make sense.
mircea_popescu: http://www.cleveland.com/open/index.ssf/2014/05/what_the_john_kasich_profile_t.html << 2014.
mircea_popescu: it's like the hot topic of electoral derpitude. where pruny old ladies from ohio copy/paste stuff from the reddits.
mircea_popescu: john kasich 5.0!
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo guy's pretty lulzy. piece pumping him, large lulz potential. jus' sayin'. ☟︎
mircea_popescu: put it on eulorum, should be fine.
mircea_popescu: shinohai jusy make one.
mircea_popescu: Kasich: Women 'left their kitchens' to help him campaign
mircea_popescu: and they "coined a term" to "help him breakout", something like kasichwhat was it
mircea_popescu: do you know he's the "light of hope" or some nonsense ?
mircea_popescu: dude, he's something else. such a mine of unintentional comedy has rarely been seen.
mircea_popescu: do you know about the derp from ohio, btw ?
mircea_popescu: aha
mircea_popescu: maybe have a 1:10 rule or something.
mircea_popescu: yeah. you also don't want it to get tedious.
mircea_popescu: the embattled self-styled "us president", for one.
mircea_popescu: i was thinking wtf.
mircea_popescu: how about 10mn for the rest of the year.
mircea_popescu: ahahaha wut!
mircea_popescu: yeah something like on the sidebar.
mircea_popescu: how much for an eulora ad ?
mircea_popescu: cool.
mircea_popescu: how's blogging going btw danielpbarron
mircea_popescu: it's on their fucking heads. when i'm not willing to pay as much as a farthing for the continuance of the world they built, this'd be why.
mircea_popescu: so far, the various forefather derps have failed to produce ANYTHING
mircea_popescu: nah, i didn't ask you to maintain one. i asked for one to exist.
mircea_popescu: it won't make a difference.
mircea_popescu: which explains why madam aisha is writing to you.
mircea_popescu: "and do this in the manner everyone else is, so developers aren't too surprised"
mircea_popescu: this job, being eminently unspecifiable, is thus highly fashionable. so we add a codicile :
mircea_popescu: let me enlighten you : it's "take a string that is definitionally misformed html, aka html soup, and transform it into sufficiently well formed html to render". ☟︎
mircea_popescu: i don't think you understand what "parse html" means.
mircea_popescu: i dunno how one could refuse widow of comrade huh.
mircea_popescu: this shit's becoming ever more arabic isn't it. ☟︎
mircea_popescu: MUST I DO EVERYTHING MYSELF!
mircea_popescu: why me ?! she's enlisted already, neh ? what are you doing!
mircea_popescu: just like you know, the elector of saxony being konig im as opposed of konig der. for as long as he stays home he can pretend he's king.
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo speaking of which, perhaps it's time to start referencing usg as "the government IN washington" ? not like it's legitimate or anything.
mircea_popescu: i dunno, someone's supposed to buy this shit or something ? oh, if nato invades some place and then calls it a civil war then totally ?
mircea_popescu: you know, the "civil war" between the government there and the government away.
mircea_popescu: funny that the official name of the nato invasion of lybia is "the libyan civil war".
mircea_popescu: jewish name, too. rachel, hannah, something
mircea_popescu: ah 1980s bombing or somesuch
mircea_popescu: nfi
mircea_popescu: well no, i suspect most of the theft actually happened in uae.
mircea_popescu: she also sued nato for you know, bombing a building and killing her brother and daughter. nato however wasn't sent to jail, because also reasons.
mircea_popescu: this is how it works now.
mircea_popescu: then banks decided to steal all her money, because reasons.
mircea_popescu: anyway, but speaking of the madam : aisha gaddafi is a rather interesting case. about our age, guy's only daughter iirc, ex un something-or-the-other.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform eh couldn't be arsed.
mircea_popescu: epic.
mircea_popescu: lmao, check this out : apparently sometime cca 2008, one oleh soskin said that nato membership [for the ukraine] is favoured by women, they being... the more intelligent part of the electorate.
mircea_popescu: apparently i'm a very important fellow.
mircea_popescu: Madam Aisha M.GaddafiThu, 12:29 pm 5 KiBGreetings From Madam Aisha: Pls Get Back To Me So...
mircea_popescu: Mr. Bernard Madoff2:33 am 3.4 KiBHello dear ☟︎

mircea_popescu: in other lolz :
mircea_popescu: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=12-03-2016#1431121 << that guy looks like he's doing god's work, ask him to come over ? ☝︎
mircea_popescu: (yes yes, not possibru, jane'd never, yadda yadda. i know, i know.) ☟︎
mircea_popescu: lem.
mircea_popescu: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=12-03-2016#1431095 << a) who the fuck do you imagine owns cattle and pretends they're women ; b) srsly now, this isn't how it works, you redefine the context. i own the women you'd be proud to call girlfriend, as cattle. and yes, they have exactly nothing against this arrangement, in fact, they bluntly prefer being owned by me than being your girlfriend. now you're lookin at the prob ☝︎
mircea_popescu: really, dice type sites (and no, pure chance is nothing but dice, no matter how you package it) should be happy with 0.1% or less. bitbet WORKS for that 1%.
mircea_popescu: nice font o.O. who's scws. where's the provably fair link ? why would i play roulette, i don't want to give you 5% or w/e the fuck the edge was. 1% is generous, this is not 1750.
mircea_popescu: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=12-03-2016#1431086 << that's not how things work, "oh, minor typo in the torah, it meant dwarves are the chosen people". ☝︎
mircea_popescu: (for a reasonably well documented case of this, see the various middle eastern deals that didn't include the derp)
mircea_popescu: not even the secret services of the various powers can be bothered anymore. ~nobody cares what obama says in any sense.
mircea_popescu: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=12-03-2016#1431071 << guy's a complete imbecile. reading obama is more or less like reading reddit, i dunno who could possibly be arsed. ☝︎☟︎
mircea_popescu: you can now spend this lulz in any of the affiliated lulzshops ☟︎
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform your lulz deposit has been received and credited to your account.
mircea_popescu: if derpy site is going to print numbers, might as well print the same ones. one'd think.
mircea_popescu: either totally wrong or totally right or w/e. i guess mods will see to it.
mircea_popescu: i suppose the site's totally borked, huh.
mircea_popescu: there's a graph, it doesn't touch 1bn. ☟︎
mircea_popescu: i just looked ?
mircea_popescu: ponzi ahoy, should be funny to see what next week brings. 1 trn ? 1 bjln ?
mircea_popescu: not that it's not ridoinculous anyway.
mircea_popescu: link says ~800mn
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo "sfly & piot" is a pretty good find!
mircea_popescu looks at qntra article, sees chorus of derps going "pay fee!!1". i'm so glad bitcoin evanghelism dragged in the webizens srsly.
mircea_popescu: in other rebar hooks and crumbling concrete news, http://41.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lp3f4xtbeZ1qc5bcno1_1280.jpg
