mircea_popescu: The state will ask for jail time for Alvarez and prison time for Caballero. "We gave them a reasonable offer, what we felt was reasonable, and they decided it wasn't something they wanted to accept responsibility for," Dafonseca said. "Despite the video, despite all the witnesses."
mircea_popescu: "Video played in the courtroom during the 1- 1/2-day-long trial showed Alvarez moving on top of Caballero in a sexual manner" << does this actusally mean he pegged her ?
mircea_popescu: used to be someone being an alleged rapist was a big deal. these days, it just mean kid went to college and wasn't entirely autistic
mircea_popescu: that "sex offender" thing suffered as badly on the libertard threadmil as rape. nobody cares anymore.
mircea_popescu: now if anyone should know the importance of culture...
mircea_popescu: ascii_field to be perfectly honest, i suspect a dark eminence over at google had something to do with it too
mircea_popescu: i have no idea how the hell one fashionable language managed to do it, but i am definitely curious.
mircea_popescu: ascii_field shockingly enough, i suspect he actually has a point re the culture. somehow golang has this, whereas java or ruby do not.
mircea_popescu: it'll be valuable later on, and you'll regret not doing it sooner.
mircea_popescu: you two seriously should tkae a few minutes and register your keys.
mircea_popescu: jurov "everyone". there's stuff the pedos in charge like. that stays.
mircea_popescu: punkman danube delta's pretty sweet spot. heck, 500 different migratory tribes tried to get it.
mircea_popescu: i know i know. i'm just being managerially helpful over here.
mircea_popescu: cron and init. more like sex than you'd have ever guessed.
mircea_popescu: (obviously aws the corp owns the servers, but i mean... random employee could totally do this, could they ?)
mircea_popescu: jurov can you verify they actually inject your key rather than one of theirs for to mitm you with ?
mircea_popescu: davout i imagine alarms went out all through fort derp.
mircea_popescu: mod6 dude my heart goes out to you. all this shit that works until you try it...
mircea_popescu: "It's pretty easy to have blocks of arbitrary size with no commercial disadvantage to miners-- and doesn't require fancy relay protocols; just all use a single large pool and a mining protocol like stratum that conceals whats being mined from the miners. The more data/cpu required to synchronize state, the more advantage there is in centralizing the function."
mircea_popescu: gotta love gavin's move from his blog to this thing where there's no comments. clearly, the man has a lot of support o.O
mircea_popescu: hey power-rangers : nothing changes because it's a year away. if you put this in now, i will STILL attack your pathetic shit once you diverge from bitcoin, and i will still sink it. and you will probably try to pull a "nobody could have foreseen", except in your case, like in the case of the bfl scammers, i have the record pre-made, it's right here.
mircea_popescu: why, on the grounds that "it's a year away so nobody can think about that" ?
mircea_popescu: pete_dushenski i have nfi why the guy even imagines himself to be involved in bitcoin still.
mircea_popescu: so when it's been working correctly for months without needing all sorts of suddenly needed fixes, i'm as happy as i can be.
mircea_popescu: jurov people have fucking serious problems doing well simple jobs like this.
mircea_popescu: ben_vulpes it ends up pulled through glibc which is the source of this poison
mircea_popescu: so xoom (some derpy bitcoin exchange thing) : 1. pays google to advertise on pages where it gets 1st slot organically anyway ; 2. fails to even fucking load the landingpage :
http://dpaste.com/306CZPS mircea_popescu: Pierre_Rochard nothing wrong with that, you know ? be the fucking treasurer, nobody died of it yet sorta thing.
mircea_popescu: really, the immensity of cultural decay in the west is not something people can appreciate off the street.
mircea_popescu: course school doesn't do that anymore, they just take the tuition, so now business is stuck doing primitive on-job training like it were 1700 all of a sudden.
mircea_popescu: im saying you shouldn't really put people in positions where they have to cope in production
mircea_popescu: im not saying that accountants trying to cope with being officers by being bland are better or worse than those trying to cope by being insane.
mircea_popescu: now maybe you live in the magical land over the rainbow where people making 75-150k a year with an accountancy degree under their belt somehow actually come up with strategies and organise departments and whatnot. in practice, you'll get a whole lotta copy/paste, shannonization of varous recycled material (what they got from "books" / overheard at conferences etc) and so on.
mircea_popescu: it's leadership not followship. you gotta have much better reasons to do anything than "erryone else's doing it"
mircea_popescu: in fact whenever an officer of any kind justifies anything by "it being industry standard" that officer should be therewith fired and sent back to the staff position he belongs in.
mircea_popescu: Pierre_Rochard what i've seen in practice is a lot of "industry standards" and "nobody could have predicted", neither of which do a cfo make.
mircea_popescu: at which point hte poison suddenly runs out, and now you have a critical reactor and not enough time to moderate it (because those rods take time to move, being mechanical in nature).
mircea_popescu: nothing happens, of course, because the poisons are still sucking up the particles. so they pull the moderator even further, not getting any feedback.
mircea_popescu: a very dangerous situation can develop in practice (especially in "manually operated" reactors) where the core is well poisoned, which makes it look like it is working way way under 1, which prompts the techs to remove the moderator further.
mircea_popescu: now, some particular fuels have the unfortunate property that if the reaction is ever decelerated, they produce nuclear poisons. nuclear poisons are usually gases (like xeon) that absorb particles and decay.
