mircea_popescu: so when i first landed here i kept a hotel room for about a week. my across the hall neighbour was this ukrainian dude. we met in the elevator and well, at the time the ukr stuff was just blowing up and so i was curious, and he was as happy as anything to speak to someone... wise.
mircea_popescu: i dunno that there's anything but comic relief in keeping track of ver's activities.
asciilifeform: retarded, sure. just wondered if there was some actual plus to the st kitts thing. because i distinctly recall that 'passports of convenience' are mostly good as wall decorations and nothing more.

BingoBoingo: mircea_popecu / hanbot https://twitter.com/Beautyon_ is prolly going to try to navigate Freenode and contact you while I sleep. If they disappoint... My bad.
davout: i saw that when i tried to explore this deeds thing, but i also understood (from a log bit I can't seem to find) that the thing has been/is being re-implented two or three times

BingoBoingo: <mircea_popescu> this in case anyone wonders why i "have to" call gavin an idiot. same reason you have to beat the donkey. only way it groks. << People don't deal with donkeys, they make Abbos sell them mules.
mircea_popescu: this in case anyone wonders why i "have to" call gavin an idiot. same reason you have to beat the donkey. only way it groks.
mircea_popescu: i did leave them a splendid link to that great scene in miller's crossing, but i guess when you're an idiot it's easy to miss the more subtle messages.
mircea_popescu: but i somehow don't like to think we're being opposed by people this thick.
BingoBoingo: I don't think he can propose until March, then Fork block before may.
mircea_popescu: and if he had a year, do you think he'd have spent xmas and new year's "filling his hdd with blocks" while i was on vacation ?
BingoBoingo: But he has to take a year, because I got Chicoms reading Stan!
tsoulus: Oh I'm just lurking about, had some interest in bitcoins for a while
cazalla: i still wanna know how much fraud bitpay, coinbase etc are processing, they won't give me a clear cut response
cazalla: undata: my gf tells me I talk about code in my sleep, so what's the difference <<< while asleep, i would chuck my pillow into the baby's crib, grab the beside lamp and bring it in the bed, wake up screaming to call an ambulance, shit like that, she doesn't really miss my sleeping in otherside of the house
cazalla: mircea_popescu: I HAVE A GREY BEARD YO! <<< i noticed this.. while using tweezer to pluck the 10 or so grey hairs i began sporting this year, i thought well at least not as grey as mp
ben_vulpes: have i ever been aught but the court clown?
ben_vulpes: and i respond.
BingoBoingo: <asciilifeform> ben_vulpes: i like to imagine that you'll get the thing into a shape where i can ask nubbins` to print it << This
asciilifeform: ben_vulpes: i like to imagine that you'll get the thing into a shape where i can ask nubbins` to print it
BingoBoingo: <asciilifeform> ben_vulpes: ... to hear about how my slave time should qualify me for the satoshi codebase << ben_vulpes had better be qualified... just as artifexd had better be qualified for his part. << I enjoy that unlike onions disqualifying contributions are illuminated. Because not over engineered.
ben_vulpes: because i honestly don't think that you see it.
asciilifeform: if i recall
ben_vulpes: asciilifeform: you claim some sort of knowledge on how things i did once qualify me for things i do now. i'm curious to know what precisely you think qualifies me - on what sort of (shaky?) foundation those assumptions and guesses rest.
BingoBoingo: I mean John Wayne, original draft dodger
asciilifeform: ben_vulpes will probably find it an interesting detail, that when i shopped around for certain parts for my pcb assembly apparatus, quite a few vendors turned up who offer bits'n'pieces of what was once the u.s. semiconductor industry
ben_vulpes: i...escaped.
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: Because I may not like that it was a thing, but... True Grit was apparentlyt remade
BingoBoingo: <asciilifeform> aha, process man << I'm just maintaining a list of Loper machine prospects with insufficient chance of death before your complete demo.
asciilifeform: ben_vulpes: i used to do something like actual work, long ago.
asciilifeform: ben_vulpes: but i think i already described this onece
ben_vulpes: but go on asciilifeform, i wait nigh on tenterhooks to hear about how my slave time should qualify me for the satoshi codebase maintenance.
asciilifeform: ben_vulpes: as for me, i mostly reverse-engineer things for money. but occasionally i build something to make other things more reverse-engineerable.
BingoBoingo: I mean it took a fuck ton of beating to get former classmates to recognize this https://twitter.com/aaronrogier/status/524368864692293634
ben_vulpes: i've ne'er cranked out nozzles for anyone.
ben_vulpes: i'm having trouble imagining in which ways my mine work resembles spelunking through the satoshi codebase.
asciilifeform: BingoBoingo: last i recall, he cranked out nozzle skirts for maneuvering jets, for someone or other
asciilifeform: the funny thing is, that ben_vulpes almost certainly has considerably more truck with projects akin to the one in this thread, than i do
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: The hard problem I see if why you are right about UDP, mircea_popescu right about not signing everything, etc is that the new world is complicated. We aren't slaying mere aztecs anymoar
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: i believe: trowel
ben_vulpes: magically condenses the codebase into something fathomable by mortals like i?
asciilifeform: i actually got as far as to marshal most of the thing into my head
ben_vulpes: my imagination is impoverished, asciilifeform. i know not what i know not.
BingoBoingo: ^ At that deviation from filmed version I come cheaper and more authentic than actual Duran Duran
ben_vulpes: i just...
mircea_popescu: "at least... that's how i feel about it."
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: To my knowledge the irony of ironies is that ben_vulpes has a day job while I merely chse worms away from plants fruiting seasonal delights.
cazalla: yeah, i youtubed it but google gave me a scene from Casino Royale instead..
mircea_popescu: now i gotta check casino
BingoBoingo: FU Hank, WHY can't you fix this Hank https://i0.wp.com/i.minus.com/iPydduaC5I5sr.gif
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: So the terrapins that run your library... deny you journals. In this job I would take PDFs and basically be in charge of posting them online for students.
undata: hahaha, I will relay that message verbatim.
mircea_popescu: tell her i said she should finger your butthole when you do that.
undata: my gf tells me I talk about code in my sleep, so what's the difference
BingoBoingo: I hope I get it. BTC has never been cheaper for adopted value.
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: I've got a lot of red skin under my black beard after I prepped for fiat job interview Tuesday.
undata: I should've just gone to the valley to suck dick until I had enough to expatriate

undata: BingoBoingo: I mean that force in society by which a man knows which way to go.
mircea_popescu: well yeah. i wish there was reddit spray for ants
BingoBoingo: I dunno they differ much. Vitalik though is the singular name ethereum invokes.
mircea_popescu: somehow i have trouble distinguishing all the biafra faces of these "entrepreneur" folk
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: He is, and I intend to shit in his mouth every step of the way if I can keep my dietary fiber intake up.
BingoBoingo: Eventually, probably on a reconcilliation ballot or some shit. I don't see a need for them to though. Their denial has only made his legend stronger.
mod6: I think i have a rookie card of his somehwere around here.
BingoBoingo: One economic problem I will never get is dual sports players in college declaring for the NFL draft and skipping the MLB draft (looking at you rapin Jaimis)
mod6: i was following the twins closer until a certain $100M player came down with "bi-lateral leg weakness"
mod6: *bloop* irssi just told me that i've passed my #b-a byte allotment for the year.
BingoBoingo: When I go to the cards games most I eat there is a hot dog. Gotta make hose $6 beers work.
BingoBoingo: I saw. Chicago Cunts changed managers yet again too.
BingoBoingo: Baseball, I get territorial.
BingoBoingo: mod6: Nominally. I like hockey in the way that I'd rather see a good game than follow a team.
BingoBoingo: Hockey and Baseball are the pro sports I watch.
mod6: hockey is about all i can really get into as far as pro sports.
asciilifeform: BingoBoingo: i must confess that i do not know how, and with what, the game of 'almost golf' is played; or how it relates to what is happening in the photo.
BingoBoingo: undata: I count this past new years as successful as I fot to see my bile on January second. That means this is going to be a fun year.
undata: JS is widespread, therefore good. Operating Systems are hard and people who make them are well known. I should sculpt my one shitty skill into hardthing and be well known.
mircea_popescu: i am sure.
mircea_popescu: why not ? because i won't fucking rewrite wordpress wtf.
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: I hear it can be forced.
