mircea_popescu: im guessing there's no real need to have the rss bot melded into deedbot rly.
mircea_popescu is sitting here watching 11MB/s transfers... what a pleasure.
mircea_popescu: btw, do you have the rss feed for that article via deedbot ?
mircea_popescu: <input type="file" multiple=""/> << apparently this exists now.
mircea_popescu: hanbot a moment's meditation reveals that i dun really want to clickl a bunch of boxes. ideally, i'd click once, and shift-select a set of files. does php even support this in any sense ?
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo it's spam. you can tell because it shows up on abandoned "blogs" that've meanwhile been added to the spamchurn etc.
mircea_popescu: myeah. at least the local lindora morons have the excuse that well, their "office job" being call center for us corps...
mircea_popescu: i dunno. i actuallty dun think anyone ever asked that "clasa muncitoare" anything.
mircea_popescu: diana_coman you know, even in commie time, they had more sense than this latino same hour idiocy. i distinctly recall various large factory bosses in cluj agreeing how to interleave their hours so as to not jampack the conveyances
mircea_popescu: basketball even ok girl sport. gotta make the bitches jump, what's so hard about the concept ? it's the ass, stupid.
mircea_popescu: play the sports femtards vs the sitting femtards, that's something.
mircea_popescu: anyway, now there's possibly the ~upper limit~ of usgistani resonance.
mircea_popescu: right, cuz femorons gotta sit in the basement and listen to mommy.
mircea_popescu: i dunno, haven't been in a long time. was never much of a problem historically, but then again back then only cool people had cars anyway
mircea_popescu: they certainly ~never~ so worked in romania, to the point of notoriety.
mircea_popescu: i am willing to swear no traffic systems work as intended in any orcistan.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform they work until replaced. they're not "kept working" anymore than the earth's "kept rotating". guess what -- once it stops rotating there'll be a new set of gnats and motes. there's no "keeping", "fixing" etc.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform no but the problem here isn't even "write software", which even ALLOWS for something like an ooda coupling. the idea here is to somehow magic trends and events, splice them together into resonant actionables ?!
mircea_popescu: how ? how is this miracle supposed to occur ? random girl that lacks the werewithal to skip past "oh, how would any girl do that" into the "wow, apparently this guy actually has had this occur before ?", by the act of being hired by who ? goldman sachs ? magically becomes so finely intelligent she can somehow distil things i don't see into effectual "oscillators" ?! then how the fuck did things like
http://trilema.com/2012/la mircea_popescu: literally, lacking the intellectual sophistication to a) put together items GIVEN TOGETHER ; or else b) realise their tools are broken to this degree.
mircea_popescu: you want "magical goldman sachs" to "resonant frequency" a system of the complexity of tmsr ; and then these people go hiring, and the hiring pool has SERIOUS TROUBLE going past banal "oh, would any girl do that keks"
mircea_popescu: i tend to diagnose this by simple measures such as "well, i published x and y, and then 0.k% of sample is aware of both x and y" sorta thing. vast majority of "linkiedin contacts" of miss piggy have yet to see miss piggy article, vast majority of other side have yet to conceptualize "oh, what do you mean OUT IN THE OPEN", and then there's
http://btcbase.org/log/2018-11-18#1873320 stuff, with all the pics sitting right the fuc
☝︎ mircea_popescu: no, basically what's going on is that "EVERYONE!!! has read this vice article me and two other girls read (of which one wrote it)". there's this expectation of exposure that is entirely unsustained in practice.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform i doubt 22 yo fetlife moron has the werewithal to reference anything that happened last week, let alone years ago.
mircea_popescu: this whole "social media" thing looks a lot broken-er than anyone realises.
mircea_popescu: i'm actually curious if anyone manages to find it. because i dun see it, and i got fucking telescopes.
mircea_popescu: in deeply unrelated lulz, "masochisticslut1 22F sub 8m 1. stop sending the same message to multiple girls. youre being blasted on social media by someone else." << can you believe this shit, whereby "social media" is so opaque, this "blasting" can actually NOT BE FOUND, i mean at all, even if specifically looking for it ?
mircea_popescu: this for the practical. the theoretical still stands as well : bitcoin valuation in any other currency will fluctuate, because new cunts come out of the skirts every day and they have to be sorted somehow.
mircea_popescu: do you think less of the man with no shed, or the man with the leaky roof shed ?
mircea_popescu: certainly not instantaneous. for that matter, no propagation is proven at all or anything. but rather than "mysterious alien forces", how about you know... "in 2017 we hadn't started building a house which meanwhile we did build, leaky roof y compris"
mircea_popescu: it's the currency of the republic, you're so surprises it follows the flow and ebb of the very republic in question ?
☟︎ mircea_popescu: what ~did~ you expect bitcoin/usd will do, if we're retreating on foundation, still not solved pizarro market communication a full year later, etcetera ?
mircea_popescu: i'm just saying, there's both practical and theoretical views trhat are both more parcimonious and do not need it.
mircea_popescu: "singing" in this manner isn't nearly trivial, which is why say dogs don't do it. dogs do all sorts of things, but understanding glass as a system to the degree needed here is rather tall a fence.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform sure, but that requires a few joules kinetic and a few terrabytes gnoseologic. as in your quote with "needed dollar to turn screw and million to know whcih one"
mircea_popescu: for the ~same money you could say "bitcoin is realligning to its true value driven by systematic failure of tmsr.
mircea_popescu: and this is a necessary premise of your theory, so i'm not introducing anything here.
mircea_popescu: whole point of "bumper crop" is that A.dorks arbitrary value for a is divergent from market value of a. nothing more than that.
mircea_popescu: do you see how the only outcome of this is B expanding its borders into A ?
mircea_popescu: so at the coming time, they declare they shall trade a for b at the specified ratio. and B had a bumper crop, and so B buys a lotta a.
mircea_popescu: suppose now that for whatever reason, A.dorks decided "they will know in advance" "when a/b ratio is high and when a/b is low.
mircea_popescu: suppose there's two countries, A and B. suppose they have their repsective currencies, a and b. obviously through trade there's at all points going to be some b in A and some a in B.
mircea_popescu: no mata haris, fine, sure. think of it in game theoretic terms, if you will ?
mircea_popescu: and i dispute natural (and necessary) fluctuation can ~in principle~ serve as indication in that direction.
mircea_popescu: in fact, one of the principal signals of a dead (ie, divorced from reality) monetary system is...
mircea_popescu: even without those, there'd still have to be drops. it's just unsanitary not to.
mircea_popescu: "oh woe to me, of course mp is rich, he spent a summer with bitcoin at $2" "and what were you doing late nov 2018 ?" "oh, bitcoin didn't look good anymore ; i'll be back to woe my whine once it comes back up".
mircea_popescu: how do you propose to reconcile monotone valuations with cyclical populations ?
mircea_popescu: or of the "it's unfair that guy is a lord just because he read the call back when i wasn't born yet". or however you turn it, it's the same fucking thing.
mircea_popescu: consider for a moment bitcoin valuation in fiat was a monotone function.
