trinque: my how the fruits of this land entice
trinque: speaking of the fiat world, I recently spent an obscene amount of bezzlars working on granting a fella shares in a garden variety llc
trinque: as for getting sucked back into the fiat world, bot runs on my oath, or passed to someone who can.
trinque: most of this bot is still intended to be vpatched and released
mircea_popescu: then again, i would also really hate fucking with a man's work ; so find something that works for you while it doesn't expose us to that downside.
mircea_popescu: i would ~really hate~ having to redo the whole deedbot stack (deeds, wot AND payments) in the manner we had to redo btcalpha when mike got sucked back into fiatlife.

mircea_popescu: and in other important california contributions to world-everything, https://elaineou.files.wordpress.com/2014/04/drugrabbit.png
mircea_popescu: "worst case", sorta like the memory checker patterns
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform the series is used in some graphical engine testing
mircea_popescu: this is a gfx thingee
mircea_popescu: but w/o the implicit underside protection of options. if you're lucky they expire worthless.
mircea_popescu: owniong many toothpics is exactly equivalent to owning an option.
asciilifeform: troo, they takeupspace.
mircea_popescu: toothpicks with demand are worth 20 bux per 500, and without demand are worth negative 100 dollars per ton to store.
asciilifeform: lessay each is worth a tenth of a penny,
mircea_popescu: prolly not toothpicks, but a lot of thin pens works well.
asciilifeform: i suspect 2bil toothpicks , if actually possessed and wielded, would buy something above this nonsense
asciilifeform: not even 2bil toothpicks
mircea_popescu: he's worth not enough to buy me a drink irl.
mircea_popescu: in the sense of hooli having put 2bn worth of bezzle through this particular set of papers.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform but note that the evan spiegel response is not "so ? do you have a sister ?" but "oh im so ashamed of having pissed into lilly's butt-mouth"
mircea_popescu: all other behaviours allign around this.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform the object of the anal child is to prove to the world that there is no such thing as his father taking him behind the shed and killingh him with a blunt shovel.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: sounds almost as if their object were to catch a stray bullet here an' there and then blame hunters
mircea_popescu: "oh, property is not a fundamental right ; but not forcing randos to give it away to our friends may create problems of a most ethereal nature!!11"
asciilifeform: we have (had?) these folx here in usa. they're the reason why there were armed guards at the rat house at asciilifeform's old lab.
mircea_popescu: overpowering in that earlier piece re stealing people's money to promote ideas of social engineering that the govt doesn't actually have the guts to put in the budget and tax for.
mircea_popescu: hooting but to make sure everyone is safe. Please read our legal guide to understand the laws and stay within them." << teh strong scent of anal childhood, "lalala we are calling it something else!!!"
mircea_popescu: "Our intention is to patrol the cull zones and using Cree LED torches and noise disrupt the illegal shooting of badgers, We will assume that all shooting is illegal until we have been notified by a government body that a farm is licensed. When we have been notified of which specific farms within the zone are legal we will monitor the cull & using Cree LED torches and noise notify marksmen of our presence, not to disrupt the s
asciilifeform: reminds me, did they ever unban the fox hunt over there ?
mircea_popescu: well this was a 2012 item
asciilifeform: 'buy this domain'
asciilifeform: http://www.badger-killers.co.uk << the site in question .
mircea_popescu: the TWIST however, is that the bad guys (uk govt) are trying to protect not "officials" but private individuals, from a crazed online campaign by the usual pantsuit. at stakle is the culling of badgers, which are common pests, and as animals have no rights.
mircea_popescu: liz taylor.
asciilifeform: what's the other one
mircea_popescu: (yes, that's nancy pelosi.)
mircea_popescu: yeah, that's right. "leadership". of the batshit insane rather than risk averse, utterly scandalous nonsense rather than not ego-driven.
mircea_popescu: pro tip : guess what the mousy walflower with no tits and 0 sexual market value did with her life ?
mircea_popescu: meanwhile as alf actually points out, whenever one makes the mistake of promoting female to irl leadership position, the result is overambitious ineptitude as perhaps best depicted by https://c1.staticflickr.com/7/6134/5978837887_1b76b0e92e_b.jpg
mircea_popescu: as it turnsd out this is instinctual female behaviour, seeing how it's equally in the mind of egyptian subsistence nobodies and chinese immigrant to us.
mircea_popescu: EXCEPT, of course, that those "studies" were done on sophomoric psychology students from cheapo colleges, who were told to pretend they're leaders. except they're ~actually~ housewives, and only there for exactly the reason described in https://elaineou.com/2014/06/16/100-percent-men/
mircea_popescu: and in other lulz, "That’s not very nice. Studies have shown that female leaders are less ego-driven and more risk-averse than men. So a woman-led corporation may be less likely to take over the world, but also less likely to go the way of Enron."
mircea_popescu: meanwhile in grainy black-and-white teenage interest, http://78.media.tumblr.com/38ddc93cb51ebedb94df8d46d637847f/tumblr_nqmypnYnWn1u3sqw6o1_1280.jpg
a111: Logged on 2014-08-27 05:22 mircea_popescu: vaununu doesn'tr get nearly enough airplay. imo he's the most important jew to have ever been produced by israel.
a111: Logged on 2017-10-03 02:43 mircea_popescu: iirc this was even broken on ro trilema at some ancient point, to usual chorus of "but what proof do you have this proof you have is proofing" and other theguardianisms.
mircea_popescu: again and again it goes back to that http://btcbase.org/log/2017-10-03#1719978 ; for as long as you read beobachter it will be a case that groupon is a great victory of socialism and nobody heard of http://btcbase.org/log/2014-08-27#811981 ☝︎☝︎
mircea_popescu: no, "those" "sank into swamp" whereas every last hoaxtoshi, ripple, women's rights and black lives matter is "worth" all the moneyz.
mircea_popescu: what, the loud nonsense of http://trilema.com/2015/you-know-what-gets-no-airplay-unflattering-truth/#selection-159.66-159.71 and well-placed spammers/fraudsters like http://trilema.com/2012/lets-have-fun-with-paul-graham/ changed something ?
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform> ...they sank into a bog? really, all of'em ?? << yeah ; meanwhile "uber is worth 100 bn". because why ? it's still the same shitty groupon of no margins in a rtight market as it was back when the principals were stealing cereal from supermarkets and people said https://elaineou.files.wordpress.com/2014/06/uber0.png
asciilifeform: 'BaseN, established in 2001, is the inherently scalable computing Platform for hosting billions of spimes, the core objects of the Internet of Things'

asciilifeform: or, take more recent : where is ladar levison ?
asciilifeform: where did this 'community of goals' go. the one from those days.
asciilifeform: after, i mean, his thrashing by usg
asciilifeform: speaking of olden days, whatever happened to the anon.penet.fi d00d ?
asciilifeform puts this item on conveyor.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform that look there's this tmsr thing and why isn't he in there and look how well his things fit to our things.
a111: Logged on 2017-10-03 03:06 asciilifeform: when it finally rots to unusability -- and it will -- it will be an epic sad to asciilifeform .
mircea_popescu: ~only pill, dubious as it is, against the "and it will" part of http://btcbase.org/log/2017-10-03#1720015 ☝︎
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: what do you suppose i should say to him ?
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: possibly. 1st i gotta figure out whether i already did this, lol
mircea_popescu: it's hard to deny the community of goals, and dood's been doing this since bbs days
asciilifeform: and iirc we also had thread re how crapple is not in business because asciilifeform reads trb coad and 1970s 'химия и жизнь' on a crappad
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform incidentally, as a long term customer maybe worth your while to write heartfelt letter to jdw character ?
asciilifeform: ( i suspect this is an exact rerun of the ebay thread, so i'll stop here for nao )
asciilifeform: and yes lolazon et al are in business because folx order twinkies, not because asciilifeform orders cr1220.
mod6 orders twinkie
asciilifeform: the instrument you have is the one you have, and it wants a 1220 batt. nao wat.
asciilifeform: not everything is fungible, esp if budget is made of something other than rubber
asciilifeform: 'don't keep machinery that wants 1220 ' lol goodluck
asciilifeform: what part of this is optimizable ?
asciilifeform: example. recently asciilifeform needed a cr1220 battery. they keep - theoretically - for decade on shelf. in practice, few yrs ( chinese ). 0 source of these within a day's drive . so ordered, and next day it was in.
mircea_popescu: no research is involved in any of this. FMCG, 100% of it.
asciilifeform: but the house ain't infinite.
asciilifeform: which is what asciilifeform more or less tends to do.
asciilifeform: the only way to optimize a ~research~ conveyor, rather than production, is to simply stock massive qty of everything under the sun
mircea_popescu: if i actually needed so many different kinds of screws as to make keeping stocks untenable i'd review the whole process and take out some screw types.
asciilifeform: vs what, vs having servant fetch whole thing for you and serve on silver tray ?
mircea_popescu: terrifyingly inconvenient way to live wtf.
mircea_popescu: if these were delivered individually by as many cars i'd be shooting someone.
