mircea_popescu: (for the esl folk, a flap is an affectionate term for a prepubescent prostitute, also used for uppity, vivacious girls in general, as a testament to the traditional positive social view on tween prostitution)

mircea_popescu: it's almost as if being a scientist consisted entirely of beating the cheap boarding houses and asylums to select out of the pox ridden old hags "the paragons of beauty"

mircea_popescu: probably publishable as a paper if you can be bothered to run in that threadmill

mircea_popescu: (which approach probably would improve the original paper a lot too, just re-do it but not counting totals, merely counting cases of backstabbing)

mircea_popescu: punkman prolly also drop the guy a link to the logs

mircea_popescu: as a matter of principle.

mircea_popescu: women being a... consumable commodity, which once consumed has very strong incentives to stick

mircea_popescu: and for that matter, this scam has a history older than steam. entreprising young american fellows used to canvass old world ads for girls looking to marry, then forward the details to old rich american to pay for thepassage

mircea_popescu: which is a degenerate form taken by sybil attack in the degenerate wot that escrow is

mircea_popescu: and by now yuour defense has reduced to trying to implement a broken sort of wot anyway

mircea_popescu: that's the most you get here, a sort of up and down and all around maybe.

mircea_popescu: and they think this is fine and "a community"

mircea_popescu: now how many "escrows" on the "market" have the sense to include a "Issued for use of X" thus defeating this mitm ?

mircea_popescu: thus creating a one million btc headache for me and everyone else seriously comitted to making btc the end of western style government.

mircea_popescu: think of it, this is a space where fucktarded "community members" aptly represented by the "bitcoin foundation" and well catered for by the power rangers a) gave half a million btc to trendon shavers and then b) gave half a million btc to silk road

mircea_popescu: x has a multitude of ways to fake it, too.

mircea_popescu: escrow deals are easily defeated by triangulation, which is why wot is still a thing where escrow is a noob toy.

mircea_popescu: Even though the measures acquit themselves well in this particular tournament, it’s admittedly easy to construct scenarios where the prescriptions of eigenjesus and eigenmoses alike violently diverge from most people’s moral intuitions. We’ve already touched on a few such scenarios above (for example, are you really morally obligated to lick the boots of someone who kicks you, just because that person is a saint

mircea_popescu: incidentally his definition is both a) quite strong and b) what i actually use

mircea_popescu: i aspire that one day the taxpayer should spend more on this than on finding a cure for cancer.

mircea_popescu: Vexual i have no idea how one can go through a lifetime and fuck less than a coupla dozen people.

mircea_popescu: those 5% lied and it's a neat 25-50-25 i bet

mircea_popescu: "A 1994 study in the United States, which looked at the number of sexual partners in a lifetime, found that 20% of heterosexual men had only one partner, 55% had two to twenty partners, and 25% had more than twenty partners."

mircea_popescu: lol that thing was even odds for a while

mircea_popescu: back when she had only fucked a regimen and snorted a pail

mircea_popescu: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jxpe1oSp_sg << anyway, here's blondy back before she had fucked a truck and snorted a barge

mircea_popescu: lol that blondie vid is the tits. by her face you'd think she thinks she's singing inside a huge churning blender.

mircea_popescu: bitcoinpete well she actually does have a point. the shreds of data people are making a big deal about are likely statistical noise.

mircea_popescu: most of the stuff they write is practically chinese (ie, doesn't follow romanian topic conventions (as in most latin languages you can order the words either plainly or meaningfully in romanian), they layer an abundance of cultured reference in between common metaphor (which is a process of significating that goes one step further than the idiom, roughly used to be known in english as conceit back before the us was a t

mircea_popescu: benkay: there are some gems. some. << well of course. but the guy didn't say "there's going to be A total knockout born somewhere in the US"

mircea_popescu: punkman that's a direct (ie, word-for-word, idiom-blind) translation of a highly tensed romanian text.

mircea_popescu: mjr_: what a treasure trove of fun memories << werd.

mircea_popescu: it's a process much akin to inclusive franchise - more likely to yield better ballot results.

mircea_popescu: i certainly use a lot of sex analogies in work fields specifically because people [english speakers] so deliberately compartimentalise the two

mircea_popescu: sort-of like the teenage slut born to wealth that skips a lot of school, and gets herself knocked up. not only is she getting some candy to "compensate" her for the abortion, but she also gets to blame her cocaine habit on the bad boy that "seduced" her.

mircea_popescu: and obviously, there's no prize for the people that ran safe stacks. there's a prize for those who didn't, who now get to a) bundle a lot of unrelated responmsibility and blame it on this known cause and b) ask for more money.

mircea_popescu: people doing "navy manuals" and whatever the fuck use decent software stacks for a limited time only.

mircea_popescu: woman is 16 and a half.

mircea_popescu: im wondering if they have a pedo story in the drawer about him too. i wasn't able to find one.

mircea_popescu: i'll tell you, it's your emotional investment in said media, and more generally the notion that the whole establishment is a positive thing "taken together" that irks you.

mircea_popescu: now he thinks himself a bitcoin expert, without having spent his year humbly reading here.

mircea_popescu: then went on a spending spree, which left him bankrupt last year.

mircea_popescu: well basically guy sold out for about half a bn (back when us dollars were still worth something)

mircea_popescu: no, generally it's not. goebbels didn't go "please write me a bullshit anti-jew speech again"
