mircea_popescu: preferring instead to write plaintive missives of no value ten years later, like the netbsd derp.

mircea_popescu: otherwise, i could probably make an audiotrack of obama confessing his erotic dreams of stalin.
mircea_popescu: if it is worth anything, it is worth anything only through the sheer ignorance / ample cupidity of the jury.
mircea_popescu: i dunno what value a 3 year old audio testimony produced by a media company with ample access to recordings of the person's voice could be worth in court.
mircea_popescu: http://news.yahoo.com/dursts-letter-helped-prosecutors-bring-murder-charge-071512902.html << so is this "the dekulakization is proceeding apace" or is it "insane criminal accidentally confesses" ?
mircea_popescu: hahaha
mircea_popescu: and utterly stupid.
mircea_popescu: that article should have been dripping invective. but of course, such is not possible. so random internet imbecile reads it and moves on, unbothered. HE IS LESS WRONG
mircea_popescu: http://su3su2u1.tumblr.com/post/96861298768/on-reliable-guides-and-bayesianism << the trouble with the world is that the well informed are weak and the ignorant headstrong.
mircea_popescu: in other news, tithat. http://40.media.tumblr.com/a8d148fd90a47d247323ab5c2cb81c7b/tumblr_mh2pkwkHTk1r7r92mo1_500.jpg
mircea_popescu: i just picked myself off the floor
mircea_popescu: "Your LinkedIn account says you’re in Sweden, so perhaps English is not your native language. That’s cool. Spanish was my first language, so I feel you. However, your generalization about women is a reprehensible bromide."

mircea_popescu: (this is why birds hang out in trees while reptiles hang out on rocks - birds need the shade, lizards need the heat)
mircea_popescu: that's expensive at rest (it's also the only reason they can fly, larger buffer to absorb the heat they can't dissipate)
mircea_popescu: ben_vulpes birds maintain 42 degrees body temperatures, vs your 36.5
mircea_popescu: generally birds are inefficient because of the 42 degrees problem. but also, polar bears eat a lot more than lions, per body kg.
mircea_popescu: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=17-03-2015#1055519 << by and large, this depends on how you measure efficiency. rabbits are larger than chickens, but more efficient, under the "food to usable foodstuff" conversion paradigm. turkeys are larger than chickens and less efficient. etc. ☝︎
mircea_popescu: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=17-03-2015#1055504 << not really, no. they had a little less preditors than hippos would if there were no humans. ☝︎

mircea_popescu: and in fact it goes as far as to work for a sign. does he look like he's having a good time ? he has no power.
mircea_popescu: the people who try to have a good time are generally 2nd or 3rd echelon,
mircea_popescu: it is my understanding.

mircea_popescu: are you just pursuing this for the sake of the theoretical purity or do you actually hold this view ?
mircea_popescu: orly.
mircea_popescu: this is a very small amount of stalin to not have.
mircea_popescu: etc.
mircea_popescu: they don't have as much of a stalin as a uni professor that goes " all women, stand up and strip naked or go the fuck home".
mircea_popescu: in fact, they don't even have the vague approximation of a stalin where a guy says to his golddigger harpy "if you fuck another black man i'm going tyo hung you both by your toes, and if you struggle i won't let you go", and then does it when she fucks another black guy.
mircea_popescu: they don't have a stalin.
mircea_popescu: they could, if they had a stalin.
mircea_popescu: but i appreciate the opportunity to check this out experimentally - gangrape is fun for a majority of those involved.
mircea_popescu: if they don't let THEIR boys rape and i do, when it comes to war my boys will rape their boys and that's that.

mircea_popescu: ascii_field it is not a secret to anyone except the completely imbecile "experts" the usg has historically and continues to "use" in it's quest to build itself as a bitcoin power independent from mpex.
mircea_popescu: ascii_field what is "Are ‘we’—the Americans I have lived and studied and worked with for years" and "who once made a living hell out of our fresh, green and naïve college days" iuf not direct translation of "we the workers" ?
