asciilifeform: the only thing lacking, unless i'm mistaken, is people who actually want to pay for any of this.
asciilifeform: if i understand.
cazalla: mpmcsweeney, i saw coindesk pumping gawminer advertisements yesterday, what's up with that?
asciilifeform: i'd still very much like even a speculative picture of where such revenue might come from.
BingoBoingo: Well, the way I see it people bidding for s.qntra shares are going to be bidding for a percent of future revenue
ThickAsThieves: i think it can be nothing more
mike_c: like all of my articles, they are mostly for me anyway. but i think that one stands up. i didn't cheat either, i was surprised how close my guesstimate came to that bid on mpex.

ThickAsThieves: i hate fucking taxes
cazalla: asciilifeform, who knows, i'm just saying if i could write a bot, i'd be doing other things, i cannot so i write news, nothing wrong with that
BingoBoingo: I've thought about that too.
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: I was just imagining RSS done right over the radio.
cazalla: if i could do that, i probably wouldn't be doing qntra
ThickAsThieves: i'm not even sure the risk reward is there at all
ThickAsThieves: lol mike_c I appreciate the work, but i'm not sure it covers my concern
asciilifeform: where i'm from, it's деза. (дезинформация).

mircea_popescu: and i bet you 90% of those are actually correct uses of the term, as opposed to the common derpage.
mircea_popescu: dude i dunno.
dossierddosser: Hey i ddos u!
jurov: i mean, some word from perps. or it's "just because".
mircea_popescu: yeah, i think qntra is threatening.
cazalla: mircea_popescu, ddos back? i see static page on qntra again
HelpPlease: ok, i'll give it some more time
mircea_popescu: and all our yesterdays have lighted fools the way to dusty death. << "there but for blind luck goes I", just because you're here today doesn't mean another just like you didn't die yesterday, or the day before.
mike_c: i still haven't identified the secret message.
mike_c: you've done worse. i swear you posted a couple articles of gobbedly gook that had secret messages.
jurov: i doubt most people actually understood it. went to the theatre like it went to church (when everything was in latin)
mircea_popescu: i should do a shakespeare once just to mess with people.
devthedev: All I've seen is "dns refresh"
devthedev: I wish I could read it
asciilifeform: i get the point, yes
asciilifeform: widely known, i think.
mircea_popescu: their times were run like i describe.
asciilifeform: this is why i don't like to say 'experimentally verified' re history.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform i have an experimentally verified method.
bounce: I think you're a bit spoiled here; try and compare reddit derpage and tardery with the complete inability to even follow the simplest instructions when they're paid to do exactly that in places with real modern day rampant illiteracy
jurov: i propose using s.qntra shares as payment for trilema credits, upon which they are irreversibly destroyed
bounce: currently I think the effect is a bit midway. much larger bulk of apes, lower relative yield of persons despite much better all around education(!), still a net absolute plus, but in a sense a disappointing one
asciilifeform: perhaps. given as i'm not even sure there's a game
mircea_popescu: bounce that's a dubious theory. i don't credit it so much.
mircea_popescu: suppose i put this on trilema, right now.
mats_cd03: thickasthieves: ya but what was it. i'd like to reproduce it.
mircea_popescu: i can tell it's probably an important question.
mircea_popescu: i mean... i can see either side of it. wtf to do now.
cazalla: mircea_popescu, i'll have your article up later this morning
cazalla: BingoBoingo, nice, yet to grow them although i've considered it
cazalla: BingoBoingo, i didn't get any last year, we had hail proceeded by a 5 day heat wave, that was the end of them
cazalla: thickasthieves, because then the discussion will turn to how the logo can be improved and i'll end up focusing on that instead of content
asciilifeform: i'm not certain that an article per day of actually interesting matter happens in the world. at least, not where a reporter can get to it.
thickasthieves: cazalla, may i ask why?
mircea_popescu: yeah, i recall it.
thickasthieves: i am!
thickasthieves: would qntra be interested in some logo mockups? i wont be offended if you dont use any, i just think it makes a create letterform
cazalla: mircea_popescu: cazalla can you explain that 4plebs img thing ? i dun have the context. <<< ANZACs go off to fight for the country, ya know, cis gendered men who promote the patriarchy, meanwhile all the leftys move in to Melbourne, meh wtf do i know anyway
thickasthieves: i dont care about bluechip fiat co
devthedev: I hope it turns out okay for authors too, we'll have to wait and see.
asciilifeform: but now i strongly suspect that it is true
asciilifeform: i was very unsure re: this hypothesis prior to qntra
thickasthieves: and yknow, i'm not saying i wouldnt buy shares just to support it
mircea_popescu: well, i suspect there's a lot of unresolved questions in there.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform more to it than simply that, i suspect.
mike_c: ok, i'll write it up.
asciilifeform: i confess that i'm seeing a perpetuum mobile, but, 'this time it'll be different, we're using 6061 instead of villard de honnecourt's oak !'

mircea_popescu: Breaking : A Trilema Article I wrote about a Song I wrote about some Music I wrote.
thickasthieves: mp just write all your articles for qntra about your articles on trilema and i'll be happy lol
thickasthieves: mp i admittedely didnt put my all into the headline
mircea_popescu: thickasthieves bad title tho. i got better titles than blogger, and the big thing there is the dow manipulation
thickasthieves: if i wrote an article saying that mp wrote the article, thats news :)
thickasthieves: hey i like mp's commentary
mircea_popescu: mike_c wow i hadn't either.
mike_c: but if you have a core set of tags it is easy to have finance page, legal page, editorial page, etc. (this is what I would want, perhaps not widely desired).
thickasthieves: make people spend shares to read it i guess
cazalla: i think coindesk got to thickasthieves
