mircea_popescu: the world is not a us subject. the us is a subject in this relationship. an incredibly cheeky one, to boot.
mircea_popescu: they want the border open ? lube up and moan with the music.
mircea_popescu: you don't likle us citizens betting on bitbet, put fucking dildos in their chairs.
mircea_popescu: this is like pretending that ranchers must register with one another because the cattle strays on their land and eats their grass.
mircea_popescu: i will NOT register with anyone ever on the guise that they can't keep their cattle in line.
mircea_popescu: thickasthieves: " Whether one is a US-based exchange or not doesn't decide whether one needs to register. The question is whether a company has clients in the US or not. If so, they are subject to regulations of that jurisdiction." << utter bullshit.
mircea_popescu: "i can't convince you people that 3 = 4 it's like talking to a wall you're a cult wah wah"
mircea_popescu: "It’s like talking to a wall. There’s no use arguing with a cult."
mircea_popescu: nubbins`: it's like having a part-time job where you get paid to not show up <<< you're like one step away from being a mobster don. which is what that job is.
mircea_popescu: <asciilifeform> why are we polishing turd again...? << only way there is.
mircea_popescu: thickasthieves lol but i have 30+ year's experience at it!
mircea_popescu: punkman: so pack of tobacco from corner store, 4-5eur from 17gr, bag of tobacco from guy I know, 20eur for 1kg. << srsly, you're too useful to be smoking by the kg.
mircea_popescu: <thickasthieves> oldest trade org <<< check it out, they're aware bitcoin foundation is going to destroy bitcoin scamfoundation.
mircea_popescu: we're here in the process of reimplementing the world because we don't trust one set of turdmeisters, you expect code will be reused from an even derpier set ?
mircea_popescu: punkman: yeah I love that I'm running "develop" versions for all major pieces (supybot, electrum) <<< real manhood.
mircea_popescu: in the sense that braindamaged implementations of nothing in particular are similar to actually useful implementations on the same basis, then yes, all c code reminds one of all c code and deeds of colored coins
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform there's at least two holes still extant to this day, i thought i said at some point
mircea_popescu: kakobrekla: want wot? fix python. << want food ? invent deer!
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform anyway, as you well know, easy to make small holes while writing c++. in fact, the best use of c++ might be irrigation systesm.
mircea_popescu: punkman: I've always thought the drainholes under keyboard in Lenovo machines were a great idea, haven't had a chance to test it though <<< this is the train of thought that ends up with keyboard rats.
mircea_popescu: thickasthieves: So if the SEC is enabling some traders to get early info, will the SEC fine the SEC? << funny how that works eh.
mircea_popescu: but in russian : США и Европейский союз ввели несколько раундов санкций против Москвы парализует себя. / США и Европейский союз ввели несколько раундов санкций сокрушительный Москву.
mircea_popescu: russians : "The U.S. and the European Union have imposed several rounds of crippling sanctions against Moscow" ; nato : "The U.S. and the European Union have imposed several rounds of crippling sanctions against Moscow".
mircea_popescu: also this is why english is the international language whereas russian is not : english allows two parties to reach a "mutual conclusion" which they can both live with.

mircea_popescu: "The U.S. and the European Union have imposed several rounds of crippling sanctions against Moscow" << lolmkay.
mircea_popescu: adlai: "The system, akin to an X-ray machine for the stock market" Here we see the useless metaphor in its natural habitat, a NYtimes article << lol, quite. at least salon and the rest of the sew crowd make their metaphores pointedly wrong, rather than useless.
mircea_popescu: anyway, anyone willing to work with an incredibly intricately documented ad-hoc algol is more than welcome to be a lawyer. all it takes really.
mircea_popescu: course "loophole" doesn't have the same sound to it as "bug" does.
mircea_popescu: but i like how bounce's legal mind works. seriously, contrary to all the pretense of the entrenched "profession" to the contrary, being a lawyer is EXACTLY being a coder, nothing different at all, let alone substantially different is taught in law school. the ONLY difference is that the hardware is very limited and the api incredibly old and terribly buggy.
mircea_popescu: bounce: so, is there any data anywhere of the efficacy and efficiency of KYC and AML reg implementations? << nope.
mircea_popescu: mats_cd03 no, not that one. the one where you kiss a girl while the other sucks you off.
mircea_popescu: mats_cd03 whatever you do, don't do the bj kiss. it'll ruin "traditional" life for you.
mircea_popescu: thickasthieves i had a bet with a younger, entrepreneur friend, which went that if automatic "make clone of your own penis" and "test yourself for all diseases" kits appear at the same time, the former'll oversell the latter.
mircea_popescu: 'll just be for cheap toys, nightstand knobs that sorta thing.
mircea_popescu: adlai and what it means is, "even cheaper furniture and finishings for the us mortgage mouse"
mircea_popescu: (am i the only one into toothpaste art around the age of 5 or so ?)
mircea_popescu: bounce well 3d printing is mostly toothpaste sculpture, except with plastic.
mircea_popescu: well no, but there's airplanes where you ppls live neh ?
mircea_popescu: speaking of which, i have a metal hand press, and a pile of oranges. so im going to make myself some freshly squeezed orange juice and douse it in the local cognac.
mircea_popescu: because i never noticed as many flaws an dproblems in a woman as when sitting with a coupla camhos watching her.
mircea_popescu: bounce just a little defensive, because not erryday gets to discuss his headpenis, and in public to boot!
mircea_popescu: it's a matter of methodology not of scope. the how, not the what.
mircea_popescu: thickasthieves obviously i can appreciate thinking is a process, and one has to make sense of one's [intellectual] history, etc.
mircea_popescu: but the particular definition you gave indicates to the compiler, were the compiler human, that a) you hadn't considered it before using it and b) as defined prolly doesn't serve you in any sense.
mircea_popescu: now, it's entirely your privilege, as the human in this relationship, to define function x any way you please
mircea_popescu: you say "hyper abstract". this is like in code, calling function X. compiler (me) goes wait, wut ? so you go "function X () { random banal shit; }"
mircea_popescu: thickasthieves not at all. i mean something quite specific :
