THEREFORE you lack

this nonsense"
BingoBoingo: <mircea_popescu> incidentally BingoBoingo : it ~would~ be fair
to say
that
the bitfinex failure as presented by bitfinex amounts exactly

mircea_popescu: asciilifeform honestly i don't comprehend why you entertain
the
tards above and beyond "honey, close your eyes and

mircea_popescu: incidentally BingoBoingo : it ~would~ be fair
to say

phf: mircea_popescu: "рубить", "топор" has a very nice sound
to it in russian, which is
that of something crude, rough, but also
to
the point. can string a few of
those
together with a lot of breaks and pauses
to get a feeling of "honest" crudeness or somesuch
shinohai: Oh wait
that's
the Director of Community and Product Development for Bitfinex.
mircea_popescu: hatchet in romanian, yeah. except
there's also "om din
topor" ie "man of
the hatchet", which just means a crude fellow.
phf: he was really good at playing working class revolutionary, in
the old
tradition of "going native", just look at him
https://c2.staticflickr.com/4/3385/3635935907_817fa1e408.jpg. his whole style is
that of мужицкий топор and he used his refined ear

the топор just kept chopping on its own

tone by
the obama. what, he made melanin ?
mircea_popescu: and note
that naming
the
tolkien for
tolkien isn't blaming him for
the gulag. merely recognising his intricacy in
the civilisation-masquerading-as-a-culture
that spawned him.

that enumeration :
the
tsyan, intelligence measure. named for
the... militsyan

the deed bundles in here now ? << sho nuff
mircea_popescu: shinohai it's a
toss-up whether it can't produce great stories because no ads or because being mean.
shinohai: "Ads are being blocked. For us
to continue writing great stories, we need

trollage.
