mircea_popescu: "so i contributed some equity" "to whom ?" "to someone" "so what do you want ?" "a share of the profit" "of whom ?!" "of someone"
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo: I imagine we'll fill the wiki with important points over time << as stan'd say, i can also see another scenario, where the wiki is still where it's now, a decade later.
asciilifeform: i'd have bet, on account of the first page or two of the turd smelling of crafted disinfo
mircea_popescu: you can, but i'm taking bets against that.
asciilifeform: of course i can picture another scenario
asciilifeform: this is a sadder discovery than i expected - (expected a green grad student or somesuch)
JorgePasada: :-) Too meta for today, I'm in getting shit done mode before this Amsterdam trip.
asciilifeform: as far as i can see, this fellow's a genuine, if unimaginative crypto type. and bitcoin is now part of the mandatory 'gentleman's set' of topics such a creature must at least pretend to show an interest in. hence paper.
mircea_popescu: but in the 80s i recall it being somewhat of a big deal
mircea_popescu: i must admit i never looked at one since 2005 or w/e it moved
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform yes, i was thinking, o look what cryptologia publishes now.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform some random dood aspiring to academia, i had his page somewhere.
mircea_popescu: bitcoinpete: eventually, i see fewer people walking into bitcoin (and assets) like they own the place << kinda what i'm trying to get with the trouting various clueless twits a la courtois. "it ain't yo momma's btc, yo! show some respek!"
fluffypony: JorgePasada: I see our friends in the Neo&Bee thread don't understand that when you and I say "creditor" we mean "creditor" and not "investor"
JorgePasada: benkay: Not gonna make the meetup tonight, I'll be down later in the week though
fluffypony: benkay: yes but I want to talk to him
mircea_popescu: <pankkake> so it solves everything. twice. << 8 lines bashed. omfg i spilled. bwahahahaha
mircea_popescu: <Apocalyptic> haven't these guys given up already ? << i was kinda surprised myself.
TomServo: mircea_popescu: I seem to recall you mentioning Piketty, but don't recall the context. Was it regarding his book?
mircea_popescu: <fluffypony> ;;later tell BingoBoingo http://thedoghousediaries.com/comics/uncategorized/2014-05-05-cc318e9.png << no actually i said that. sorry.
mircea_popescu: <pankkake> besides the various forms of writing an address, I guess there are RIPEMD-160 collisions? << a ripemd-160 collision that'd make two diff bitcoin addresses out of one key is kinda improbable even theoretically tho
mike_c: i think you're missing a (* 1000)
mike_c: when I looked at the cookie it said it expired in an hour.
asciilifeform: mike_c: i would expect the results to depend heavily on the surroundings.
davout: oh, guess i was confused about what tesla's apparatus is
davout: "other - tesla's apparatus" <<< how? i would have said the second method involved some sort of sending waves through the earth and manage to use some sort of resonance phenomenon
asciilifeform: please do! i need a brick.
fluffypony: I'm a media whore and got interviewed on a podcast: https://soundcloud.com/zerofiat/zero_fiats-vertcoin-update-05-06-2014#t=11:40
BingoBoingo: I'm thinking of the stuff developed a while back for non-lethal anti personel use
BingoBoingo: I could see a sticky hardening foam interfering with the aerodynamics of non-rotor aircraft
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: I imagine the drones having hardening foams and nets, seem more likely to cripple competing aircraft.
bitcoinpete: ;;later tell heysteve i haven't seen your links on crytocoinnews so feel free to pass them along!
fluffypony: now that I would sponsor
asciilifeform: fluffypony: going to sponsor a UFC fighter << never having known of 'UFC', i assumed that it referred to an 'unmanned flying competition' - i.e. drone dogfight tourney.
fluffypony: I actually can't bring myself to finish it
fluffypony: I started typing a reply to them but ya know
thestringpuller: because i had a discussion recently on the "true n00b"
BingoBoingo: thestringpuller: That's a good question. I imagine we'll fill the wiki with important points over time, but in the long run it will probably be spread over the blogs. Maybe when it becomes a concern there might be a discussion of some sort of archive-assets for blogs that lose viability to to operator inability to continue them.
bitcoinpete: eventually, i see fewer people walking into bitcoin (and assets) like they own the place
pankkake: I guess you end up reading old, important artists with all the links
bitcoinpete: thestringpuller: this is something we've discussed before i believe… and there's no one clear answer.
thestringpuller: bitcoinpete: What do you think will be the "premiere" archive of information? I imagine all the good info in BingoBoingo ThickAsThieves Trilema your's and other blogs will eventually be archived into the "Manual for the Bitcoin n00b"
Apocalyptic: at this point the only thing that comes to mind is : "i don't even..."
mike_c: a noble goal, good luck with it :) certainly a task i don't envy.
Apocalyptic: hum i see cryptorush was discussed this morning
bitcoinpete: and i don't mind dealing with the press
thestringpuller: bitcoinpete: i like tho how people are following trilema-esque articles now in relation to bitcoin with the big push from your blog
pankkake: besides the various forms of writing an address, I guess there are RIPEMD-160 collisions?
pankkake: fluffypony: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=358820.msg3876565#msg3876565 I'm not sure I was the first though
pankkake: perhaps leave a donation address, as I would definitively donate if it earned me something
mike_c: i kid, i kid.
mike_c: pankkake: just 0.1%. i'm not greedy
pankkake: https://i.imgur.com/SOMC0BA.png
asciilifeform: a decade later, i still recognized those 3 thermal vias
asciilifeform: i fixed at least 3 as a student, for various folks
mircea_popescu: ThickAsThieves nah, i suspect it's a cognate of arrender
fluffypony: dialect, I'd have to ask my nonno
ThickAsThieves: we'll see if i get a Murck-y responde
ThickAsThieves: i emailed legal@bitcoinfoundation.org
ThickAsThieves: I'll see it when I believe it.
mircea_popescu: dude what the fuck have i been sayinbg for a year over here already!
mircea_popescu: ThickAsThieves hehe i thought so.
ThickAsThieves: i totally misunderstood what you were asking bitcoingirl to do
ThickAsThieves: and when i said "mah job!"
ThickAsThieves: btw, i reread the logs yesterday
ThickAsThieves: if so i can have my wife get them
ThickAsThieves: i do, never tried the whores thoughh
ThickAsThieves: and i'll end up chasing them down in the red light district
ThickAsThieves: i have this feeling none of the people i will want to ask questions will have a Q&A session
ThickAsThieves: yeah i think it's kicking off the conference something
mircea_popescu: ThickAsThieves i wonder if matonis actually does get the custom-tailored award thing
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform just a guess i suspect. the processors weren't hot enough to smoke.
Naphex: mircea_popescu: yeah i know, was just asking why not, for just html you'd get a lots of plus
ThickAsThieves: i like how Matonis is retweeting an article that says "Take whatever the Core Devs say and do the exact opposite."
asciilifeform: since you said 'bios', i wondered how this conclusion was reached.
mircea_popescu: Naphex i have had so many things happen for mpex that i never had happen before i couldn't begin to tel lyou
jurov: heh i got notification too, but was afk
mircea_popescu: funny thing is, i got the notification from you about half a second before from tech.
Naphex: from bacau i think
mircea_popescu: that reads "after 24 calls and 7 emails i can finally breathe somewhat"
mircea_popescu: i dont think it was ever on the girl's list
ThickAsThieves: maybe i'll write a pando hate article and steal all their lovers
mircea_popescu: wait i make claims to fame ?
ThickAsThieves: substance i guess
ThickAsThieves: how is it i find mp's claims to fame palatable, but not theirs?
mike_c: http://i.imgur.com/kUY9nJk.png
ThickAsThieves: "What I love about Pando is how quickly it's exposing itself to be ego-stroking spin machine for its investors and their interests." ~ me
jurov: heh now i wonder why i just said myself "prolly it should be so" and not investigated further
jurov: ^ pankkake this. i have did it myself, i got back fees from the bet i linked directly but that was all
pankkake: the referal? I doubt it. or I would have gave myself fees forever
mircea_popescu: i meant specifically, the referral, as in, the guy you referred.
pankkake: jurov: no it works, the cookie expires at session though. that way I got myself fees by mistake
jurov: i don't know why it did not stick
ThickAsThieves: i accept this compromise, thank you for negotiating
jurov: well, i always got some satoshi in few hours following the link was published
ThickAsThieves: i see Enky is boycotting Bitstamp
ThickAsThieves: i wanna OWN my affiliations
ThickAsThieves: i dont like calling them redditers cuz it feels like an insult to editors
jurov: bitbet affiliation sucks, i have tried a bit
ThickAsThieves: i dunno man, you really think their will to surive is that strong?
