decimation: Adlai: I use 'jedi' http://tkf.github.io/emacs-jedi/latest/
asciilifeform: (and i hope i don't have to explain the thermodynamic folly of trying to run waste heat through it)
BingoBoingo: <asciilifeform> this is why i suggested small 'naval mines' with steel capsules in water pool. << plus side you can grow Tilapia further north
asciilifeform: this is why i suggested small 'naval mines' with steel capsules in water pool.
decimation: PeterL: I would suppose that the first step would be to use a fluid heat exchange cooling system
asciilifeform: am i the only one who stayed awake in first grade?
decimation: heh I know
BingoBoingo: <decimation> re: argon datacenter << I suspect dry nitrogen would be cheap << I suppose radon because heavy
decimation: re: argon datacenter << I suspect dry nitrogen would be cheaper
decimation: I'm dubious that there is much real coordination of these things, more just random entropy in various usg departments
decimation: heh I think usg still pays for highly-enriched uranium from soviet bombs
PeterL: decimation no, I would get the government out of the healthcare business, but I am resigned that will never happen
PeterL: but I might be a bit biased, all my girlfriends before I was 20 were immigrants
PeterL: Speaking of bezzle, I just did my yearly health insurance signup. makes me mad how much I have to pay now, about 4 times as much as two years ago for the same crappy plan
decimation: PeterL: no doubt there are bright foreigners working in the us. I would suggest that they are here despite the existing immigration policy, not because of it
BingoBoingo: <PeterL> speaking of visas, the group I work in is about 1/3rd immigrants, these are really smart people and the US is better off with them here. << This was the case when I TA'd pharm school. No AMericans apparently want to study/teach med chem
PeterL: speaking of visas, the group I work in is about 1/3rd immigrants, these are really smart people and the US is better off with them here.
BingoBoingo: I'm just supposed to keep his brain from breaking

BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: I'm going to put in on qntra. List the steps under it, as list you as the author so you get the shares for the text.
dub: then I'd be slumming on exec money
mircea_popescu: nanotube btw, give deeds.bitcoin-assets.com a spin sometime ? i think it may well be ready.
mircea_popescu: dub i dunno, what am i, the micromanaging tyrant of a cult ?
dub: not sure i've read gawker before, its buzzfeed isnt it
Adlai: something like "I negrate the person known as ABC and/or XYZ, holder of passport number 123456789"
Adlai: "outside the law" and "sue" now take on tiered meanings, with each transgression offering up a new avenue of redress. i like this.
mircea_popescu: the contemporary equivalent of "i'll send a bunch of rogues to stab you in the throat"
mircea_popescu: then it is quite clear what it means. i'll sue.
mircea_popescu: Adlai at the very least that i'll negrate you if you do ?

mircea_popescu: i need tougher regulation to be able to do mai business. also mary jo attached to my cock.
mircea_popescu: jurov: ^ how can i comment on such nonsense? <<< vitriol.
mircea_popescu: thestringpuller: how they convinced the masses to contribute millions...i just will never understand <<< the same way they convinced the masses that russia invaded atlanta, georgia.
mircea_popescu: thestringpuller: If the day ever comes where you want to switch professions from engineer to gangsta, I'm totally down to ride or die with you. Lets just hope it never comes to that ;) <<< if you two do that, a film is guaranteed.
mircea_popescu: decimation: most folks today never learn about the complete Apocalypse that faced german people after wwii <<< i hear berlin chicks had a lot of fun in '45.
mircea_popescu: besides, i thought bugpowder bought a tesla.
mircea_popescu: punkman shit how the f do i know which one ?
gribble: http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=crankbait | crankbait. When screwing a man/woman doggy-style, you fish hook her mouth to one side so that she must look at you, then, you nut in her eye. Ohh, I just had to ...
asciilifeform: i'd be surprised if it were in 'ud'
cazalla: asciilifeform, yes, that is what i mean :)
thestringpuller: oh i see.
jurov: "i wont ramble here, have other stuff to do... to ramble on inkedin and twatter"
cazalla: i just wanted to get this up now http://qntra.net/2014/11/who-is-blake-benthall-aka-defcon-aka-veteran/ it's a work in progress
jurov: maybe wehn i'll sleep on it
jurov: ^ how can i comment on such nonsense?
BingoBoingo: <jurov> i'd try to submit to qntra but am out of wits << Story's already out so whenever your wits are ready do some editorial?
cazalla: fark, someone is doing a doxx on silkroad guy same time as i am, so my article is not a copy/pasta job
jurov: i'd try to submit to qntra but am out of wits
The20YearIRCloud: At any rate, good progress. Especially when you consider the apprasials came within close margin of what i had them valued at, cementing the fact that we're making equity on each renovation we do. No equity cashout spiral problems to think of, bank is getting their LTV rate and we're making $15k per property in fanciable equity. So, I am getting the
thestringpuller: how they convinced the masses to contribute millions...i just will never understand
asciilifeform: for some reason, no one ever says 'when you suddenly switch profession to surgeon, i wanna be the first fella you cut open!' etc.
thestringpuller: If the day ever comes where you want to switch professions from engineer to gangsta, I'm totally down to ride or die with you. Lets just hope it never comes to that ;)
thestringpuller: asciilifeform: as jay-z said, "Gave my life to the block, figured I get shot 'least I die on top"
asciilifeform: thestringpuller: wanna chip in, chip in for my coffin, should i ever end up in a position where forced to attempt the above.
thestringpuller: I would pay for those tickets, and would support you!
asciilifeform: thestringpuller: in practice - i am what i am. ☟︎
asciilifeform: thestringpuller: i 'could' under same logic become an internationally-renowned violinist. or olympic athlete. or wtf else.
asciilifeform: i'm not a concert violinist either. everyone sticks to what he at least vaguely knows.
thestringpuller: xiando: the concerning issue for me is the US OTC market will become as dangerous as drug dealing. If you need a duffelbag full of cash to complete the transaction, then I'd be more worried about rival gang members.
kakobrekla: all my expenses (the little that i have) are payable in paper money.
asciilifeform: thestringpuller: point is, i could (if studied, hah) trade btc for benjies. but then what.
thestringpuller: asciilifeform: so you can't use laundered money to pay expenses (i.e. mortgage?)
kakobrekla: <mike_c> add it as a footnote < lucky i have an endless scroll
mike_c: i'm also against sarcasm.
kakobrekla: its sad i have no place to write that on bb itself. totally user unfriendly.
punkman: maybe I should make the calculator work on windows
kakobrekla: but i get where you are coming from
ilikebitbet: i would love to see the expected winning amount in the confirmed bets list
z33andO_o: Interesting: It is not just SR2, this is a coodinated. I took a brief look at the other darknet markets
z33andO_o: As I understand it they got the SR1 wallet by recovering a deleted unencrypted version of it, who knows if he learnt from that
z33andO_o: I do not see this mentioned here, honeypot Silk Road 2 finally taken down by the FBI. No effect on dark net markets since it's market share was dvindling but it does mean the US government has managed to steal more BTC
bounce: ah, this pop culture thing. too newfangled for me, I'm afraid.
bounce: not that I recall. how so?
bounce: not last I checked. my name doesn't start with an s either.
bounce: now how do I say "seelance, I keel yoo" in soviet russian?
mircea_popescu: anyway, re the thinkers : i'm pretty sure the symmetric cypher is currently the weakest link in our entire crypto stack.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform bounce anyway, i don't think we've really managed to talk of the same thing, so i guess this entire quesiton will come back in teh futures.
asciilifeform: the h1b folks are brought in mainly to churn out pseudoscientific papers (the ones i personally worked with at one point) and to crank out 'ruby on rails' and 'java' crud.
asciilifeform: to round off my argument (i'm about to drive off for a spell) the 'pliant, obedient people who gotta suck it up or the lights won't turn on' aren't the h1b folks. they're the phactory gurlz in shenzhen.
bounce: er, AIUI it ought to work just fine most of the time, but I did it more to see if I could do it than anything else.
punkman: the ssh integration seems nice, but can be hacked together on earlier version I think
asciilifeform: mats_cd03: i'm not seeing anything i actually want in there...
mircea_popescu: i have a computer here, it runs this irc session. right next to it, i have a wooden box. it is ALSO MADE OF MOLECULES. it runs nothing. they form a society of the items in my house. they're all molecules. i wouldn't fucking notice if the entire fucking wooden box went away.
bounce: I think we started out trying for find some sort of raison d'etre for a steady stream of h1b-grantees, didn't we?
mircea_popescu: i dunno what you're asking.
mircea_popescu: bounce i don't follow this logic.
asciilifeform: 'A few years back, one dreadful boy ran up to me and said, “Mr. Bradbury?” “Yes?” I said. “That book of yours, The Martian Chronicles?” he said. “Yes,” I said. “On page 92 where you have the moons of Mars rising in the east?” “Yeah,” I said. “Nah,” he said. So I hit him. I’ll be damned if I’ll be bullied by bright children.'
asciilifeform: where i'm from we have catch phrase for this, "отряд не заметил потери бойца"
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform i suspect the bulk of they shipped in are "luxury workers", which is to say cocksuckers.
asciilifeform: i'm just not seeing the 'scrapped hierarchy' thing
punkman: jurov, I just sent a mail to the list
jurov: i did not understood mailman code
jurov: i just found bug that has bit ben_vulpes, he was the first one who sent message from email actually matching his gpg pubkey :)
jurov: sigh...you yanks and canucks insist to test only when i am afk
punkman: what, I'm still authed
cazalla: and the OCD means i cannot try again until Dec 1st
cazalla: i didn't even last a day, or another day after that
