asciilifeform: in exactly same sense as 'gunpowder' means krupp and not chinese fireforks from 1500s

asciilifeform: 3 is not a solution if you don't give a fuck about 'next generation' and would rather experience some sanity yourself, or die trying

asciilifeform: but yes, generally correct statement.

asciilifeform: there are strictly two 'solutions' i know of, 1) get born as mircea_popescu and stay on dirigible as much as possible 2) go perelman and live in the forest with bears and lynx

asciilifeform: 1) 'the major problem...' and 2) 'which is what... even mean'

asciilifeform: this possibly needs to be expanded ?

asciilifeform: not so much. but will, when bot is portable and 'griefers' start connecting it to igs, the way chess asshats do

asciilifeform: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=09-03-2016#1427755 << 'don't love anything - it could die' ? ☝︎

asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: the folks who work on bots, largely don't play (with any degree of seriousness)

asciilifeform: looks like he's throwing the match ?

asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: i was just about to say

asciilifeform turning in. sznore.

asciilifeform: waits, waits.

asciilifeform: and yes it's a flytrap

asciilifeform: and whats with the derps walking hunched in front of the camera

asciilifeform: i am nearly through

asciilifeform: the box plays very conservatively and waits for meat player to slip

asciilifeform: but somebody (adlai?) noted that earlier games were similar

asciilifeform: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=09-03-2016#1427534 ☝︎

asciilifeform: i said.

asciilifeform: srsly it feels like an american election crud vid

asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: i could not endure them, cut the audio.

asciilifeform: if that is the word.

asciilifeform: machine is playing timidly ☟︎

asciilifeform: the game is ~dozen mov. in.

asciilifeform: adlai had link earlier if someone wants to see.

asciilifeform: i will be for anoher few min, falling asleep

asciilifeform: or hm, now switched to sane picture...

asciilifeform: fucktardedly, the talkingheads of alphago are prattling in front of an ~empty~ vertical go board. The game per se is a small corner inset !

asciilifeform: nubbins`: this clearly comes next!111

asciilifeform: the miners, the imbecile komyooonity, the faux nodes, the lot.

asciilifeform: they should ALL burn.

asciilifeform: nubbins`: txid in pm. but this is sad.

asciilifeform: so i go and send on another box and guess what, it had previous trb, and tx is high-s.

asciilifeform: that trb chokes on, during rescan, and quits.

asciilifeform: 9 times of 10 it gives 'corrupted wallet'

asciilifeform: how the FUCK does anyone use 'pywallet.' ☟︎

asciilifeform: https://github.com/bitcoinclassic/bitcoinclassic/pull/138 << prb lulz

asciilifeform: https://bitbet.us/bet/1249/alphago-will-defeat-lee-sedol-overall-in-march << match starts in, iirc, 20 min.

asciilifeform: (if ~win~ !)

asciilifeform: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=08-03-2016#1427352 << why would i put in 1 btc to get 0.99 out !?!??! ☝︎

asciilifeform: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=09-03-2016#1427419 << he bought it to play games, and told the story in the logz, it was lulzy ☝︎

asciilifeform: monstrous thing, it was.

asciilifeform: client AND server.

asciilifeform: y stand to hear it mentioned !

asciilifeform: ;;later tell mircea_popescu http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=09-03-2016#1427413 << my brother was once a game programmer, for a co. that has died many years ago, and they had the contract of producing the 'official' mtg client. he had to learn the rules of the game, with much loathing, and play it for year+ straigh, all day, every day, with loathing, possibly more hours than just about anyone alive in total. still can barel ☝︎☟︎

asciilifeform: makes sense.

asciilifeform: ah

asciilifeform: that must be a refrigerator-sized crate??

asciilifeform: ty nubbins`

asciilifeform: you forgot the actual cost.

asciilifeform: nubbins`: for the crate.

asciilifeform: nubbins`: i need the quote

asciilifeform brb

asciilifeform: you haven't seen the post in my town...

asciilifeform: nope

asciilifeform: e.g., palantir, has higher priority than post office, literally

asciilifeform: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=08-03-2016#1427354 << when pigs fly to orbit ☝︎

asciilifeform: also lulzy, from same rag, http://arstechnica.co.uk/business/2016/03/report-elon-musk-tim-cook-and-larry-page-meet-to-halt-trumps-ascendancy

asciilifeform: http://arstechnica.co.uk/tech-policy/2016/03/gchq-uses-mit-speech-to-get-chummy-with-tech-industry-over-crypto-backdoors << l0ltr0nic

asciilifeform: wtf would anyone bet when the dial says '0.99...' ??

asciilifeform: let them first have however many shirts

asciilifeform: also nubbins` iirc someone else wanted some

asciilifeform: nubbins`: no worries, i will send it to you again when i get home.

asciilifeform: it represents the side of usg mircea_popescu likes to bring up, the threadbare zimbabwe side.

asciilifeform: posters on the walls, faded so far that you cannot read even, what they were.

asciilifeform: inside ~smells~ of 1972.

asciilifeform: phun phakt, it is a dilapidated post office, where the letters on the sign have fallen off, it is a 'p s ffic' now i think.

asciilifeform: (they will go to the same place as the last crate, if you still have the addr)

asciilifeform: nubbins`: l0l, meanwhile send my an addr plox, i have been away from home.

asciilifeform: or he will pop aneurism.

asciilifeform: but i do recommend to nubbins` , to take a breather

asciilifeform: and my rating - stands.

asciilifeform: i like nubbins` .

asciilifeform: !rated nubbins`

asciilifeform: ^

asciilifeform: so what is astonishing, nubbins` ?

asciilifeform: and it would greatly surprise me if most of mircea_popescu's personal coin was not 1 step from mpex

asciilifeform: from the point of view of nubbins`

asciilifeform: it would look exactly the same if ~i~ had paid the bet winners.

asciilifeform: nubbins`: did you miss the part where i point out that ~all of MY coin is just as 'mpex'y

asciilifeform: nubbins`: fwiw pretty much all of my own coin would appear as 'mpex funds' per your analysis.

asciilifeform: nubbins` what's that

asciilifeform: fluffypony: blatant rip of http://www.loper-os.org/?p=405

asciilifeform: iirc it does.

asciilifeform: permitted elsewhere.

asciilifeform: cali, aha.

asciilifeform: 3 mo. of wage, is typical.

asciilifeform: lotta crud.

asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: variable. but there is a boojum! typically you have to sign 'noncompete' to get the severance. and you have to be sacked, can't leave on own free will. and the sacking can't be 'for cause', etc, etc.

asciilifeform: and also try to understand mircea_popescu's very valid observation re: how turning people into salarymen lowers them into pederasty.

asciilifeform: which i'd mostly have to spend looking for new work.

asciilifeform: for one thing, usg would take ~half. and that would buy, wahat, a month of time.

asciilifeform: nubbins`: do you think it would have made a difference to me, if i had been paid $12k ?

asciilifeform: nubbins`: all shares are fish-hooks? you're a 'jam today' kinda fella ?

asciilifeform: so prolly not dead.

asciilifeform: http://btcbase.org/patches << still up.

asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: he's been gone for longer, before.

asciilifeform: hm

asciilifeform: nubbins`: you had bbet stock, no ?
