mircea_popescu: get say the foundation bitcoin, do it yourself.

mircea_popescu: yes.

mircea_popescu: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=01-06-2015#1149524 << pretty much exactly. argentine housing bubble is supported by the fact that locals can't get their money out, so they buy real estate "for investment", ie, way overpriced. ☝︎

mircea_popescu: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=01-06-2015#1149518 << obviously, you can't use the scam bitcoind versions for this purpose. ☝︎

mircea_popescu: atm the whole chain still verifies if you care to.

mircea_popescu: but they were disallowed from actually taking the next step, ie, make blocks unverifiable.

mircea_popescu: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=01-06-2015#1149517 << as ruined by gavin & co, yes. ☝︎

mircea_popescu: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=01-06-2015#1149466 << yeah, they were useful. ☝︎

mircea_popescu: !down bitcoinalpha

mircea_popescu: i think reddit awaits you.

mircea_popescu: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=01-06-2015#1149468 << clearly they were armored o.O ☝︎

mircea_popescu: bitcoin has no shortage of satoshi impersonators trying to push scamcoins.

mircea_popescu: same thing i did about doge, keisercoin, auroracoin, younameitcoin

mircea_popescu: not give a shit ?

mircea_popescu: herp ?

mircea_popescu: noobs.

mircea_popescu: lol ddosing trilema etc, srsly ?

mircea_popescu: ;;google 1 exahash

mircea_popescu: i said coanda

mircea_popescu: decimation o, they would, would they ?

mircea_popescu: in this case, henry coanda.

mircea_popescu: decimation the jet is merely a derivative work off hobbysts stuff

mircea_popescu: and someone somewhere still naively proposes the nist be taken as anything but the goskomstat ?

mircea_popescu: "In a short notice published last month, the National Institute for Standards and Technology (NIST) announced it was retiring a number of Federal Information Processing Standards (FIPS) because they were obsolete. Notably, that list of retirements includes FIPS-185."

mircea_popescu: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=01-06-2015#1149360 << nothing worth the mention was ever done by anything but hobbysts. they do flight. "industry" and so on does the f-35. ☝︎

mircea_popescu: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=01-06-2015#1149357 << you must have missed the story about the powerless airbus because java. ☝︎

mircea_popescu: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=01-06-2015#1149352 on one hand, they're talking to a crowd, and for that particular crowd talking sense means you lose. why the fuck they imagine against plainly obvious reality that it still matters or can help them is besides the point here. on the other hand, they don't want to help. formulating cogent criticisms is helping. ☝︎

mircea_popescu: whatcher doin' these days yo ?

mircea_popescu: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=01-06-2015#1149292 << /me greps for ben_vulpes in there, finds entry in title ☝︎

mircea_popescu: jesus the internet's a riot.

mircea_popescu: bwahahaha wait, there's derps actually writing on tardstalk like all seriously and naively and whatnot ?

mircea_popescu: used to be russia, amusingly enough

mircea_popescu too.

mircea_popescu: the entire french language is, in the us, a sort of marketing ploy.

mircea_popescu: country of fat stupid people with government issued money. of course everything will end up marketing.

mircea_popescu: <Adlai> who needs documentation when you have live support << what's this, camwhoring for geeks ?

mircea_popescu: bbl

mircea_popescu: you could have asked THAT , it's not uknown.

mircea_popescu: Adlai yes.

mircea_popescu: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=31-05-2015#1149172 << that is always and without exception the sign of a vps being sold as fake "dedicated" ☝︎

mircea_popescu: http://oglaf.com/business/ << shit. my lyf ;/

mircea_popescu: asciilifeform at the time the 4096 ounce bag should have been enough for everyone.

mircea_popescu: Adlai are you looking for his github ? same name.

mircea_popescu: and someone coding in windows and without much of a clue about programming as a theoretical discipline.

mircea_popescu: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=31-05-2015#1149145 << you have to appreciate the situation at the time. not that many nodes alive or expected, and a certain desperation to "make it work". ☝︎

mircea_popescu: what are you trying to do ?

mircea_popescu: that's a point.

mircea_popescu: or w/e you spell it.

mircea_popescu: im not gavinue aendreaessaen

mircea_popescu: i'm not proposing "This by itself and right now"

mircea_popescu: well yes.

mircea_popescu: how else do you think me and you is born ?

mircea_popescu: yes.

mircea_popescu: not yet, no.

mircea_popescu: "it's bad from my pov so fuck you."

mircea_popescu: biology works in this manner alf.

mircea_popescu: in the case of the world, the existence of people that pump out stupidity.

mircea_popescu: in the case of the blockchain, the existence of nodes that pump out bad info.

mircea_popescu: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=31-05-2015#1149136 << the latter point is correct, for now. but, much like us being here makes live marginally harder for now, yet the presence of punishment for idiots provides them an incentive to either get killed or get fixed, just so putting that in there pre-pogo provides an avenue for the network to purge itself of idiocy. ☝︎

mircea_popescu: and gold standard != deflation for the record. not anymore than diarrhea = transpiration

mircea_popescu: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=31-05-2015#1149130 << notwithstanding that the dudes in question are probably illiterate, gold standard does in fact not work for a large array or reasons. this exercise is not unlike an attempt to deride qm on the grounds that the various twerps making money out of govt grants in physics academia could not explain it. ☝︎

mircea_popescu: as to the bastard situation, http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=31-05-2015#1148935 ☝︎

mircea_popescu: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=31-05-2015#1149112 << i was talking about the mixed moduli situation yo. ☝︎

mircea_popescu: it's a complicated problem tho.

mircea_popescu: yeah.

mircea_popescu: somebody should write a better estimator sometime.

mircea_popescu: ;;bc,stats

mircea_popescu: yeah its weird

mircea_popescu: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=31-05-2015#1149080 << special interest politics, from gay to womens to minorities to what have you is fraud, run on ambition, high hopes and bad numbers. i am so shocked i think ima become a vegetarian nao. ☝︎

mircea_popescu: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=31-05-2015#1149054 << the particular example in question just looks like an older mpex key somehow related to the various people who signed it. ☝︎

mircea_popescu: not worth the time

mircea_popescu: asciilifeform eh, whatever, random derp trying to sell books or whatever by "being controversial"

mircea_popescu: seks!

mircea_popescu: myeah

mircea_popescu: !up btcdrak

mircea_popescu: this is fairly odd

mircea_popescu: i assumed it was because he had signed them ?

mircea_popescu: so how come jurov and old mpex keys are in there ?
