benkay: I am not following at all, mp.
jcpham: or do i have to keep waiting
mircea_popescu: tbh, it probably could be said that unlike the moldbug fellow i have the advantage of not reallty giving a shiot avbout the us government
mircea_popescu: benkay i don't care.
benkay: jurov, I think that's a meta-joke. "none of this matters anyways because the thing I'm trying to tell you ruins your life regularly will ruin your life about this as well."
benkay: I don't know that MP cares about convincing a small slice of the American technocracy that the USG is broken and/or dying.
benkay: sure. i hold that "honesty" is incompatible with his goals, which are to further derail already degrading programming.
jurov: "I promise - this is my last Bitcoin post. I fear it attracts low-quality traffic."
truff1es: i guess i cant be too hard on mp, English is his 2nd language right
mircea_popescu: i push the submission/dominance trip in those fields where people are totally off the deep end with the "i can do everything" and "agreement makes it real" nonsense
benkay: sorry, mp, I don't understand what you're getting at.
mircea_popescu: benkay only in those parts where "common agreement" diverges too much towards "lalala i can make it so"
thestringpuller: best investment advice ever: http://i.imgur.com/aRZvMZ6.jpg
mircea_popescu: i like honest people.
benkay: he's marketeering new paradigms to undermine the legitimacy of the USG. I can get behind that.
mircea_popescu: kinda why i don't like the guy's blog.
mircea_popescu: if it's not clear, what i was saying is obvious is the observation that "he's trying to implant viral ideas into"
truff1es: i appreciate good writing...
benkay: understanding (again, I think) that there's an infinite well of humans who might receive your ideas.
benkay: you, I don't think, care terribly about keeping the systems you operate on intact.

truff1es: <thestringpuller> I'm not very political.>>> what does this even mean, u dont vote?
thestringpuller: I'm not very political.
truff1es: if i ask 3rd time does that mean im really really really interested in the answer hmm
benkay: I'm missing the last pieces in how you got fucked for practicing some sort of atypical entrepreneurship.
truff1es: i am if i know what it is
thestringpuller: Github is technically useful, but I see where you are going.
jurov: ThickAsThieves, I would use some other word than "fractional".. it may have unwanted associations :D
thestringpuller: I think mircea_popescu is one of the flagship authors on the subject of "pop-culture entrepreneurship in the land of capitalism"
thestringpuller: benkay: I did find a shop where that is encouraged. Too bad capitalist countries don't condone true entrepreneurship
pgp: yes, I think so
thestringpuller: I ask too many questions.
thestringpuller: No, like mircea_popescu, I am "a difficult student".
thestringpuller: I'm in limbo yo!
thestringpuller: I'm forever in school.
thestringpuller: I'd love to see mircea_popescu write an article on operating systems, or HLSL
thestringpuller: Trilema is a differenet subject than I'm studying.
truff1es: i dont even do that now since im blocked
benkay: I hope that Mencius Moldbug engages with you on this one, MP
truff1es: i make it a sentence or 2
benkay: i ams, mp, I ams.
thestringpuller: reading trilema when I should be studying: Priceless
benkay: as I said to a lady last night: "banks offer returns. students don't. end of story"

Chaang-Noi: kako that is what i told you
kakobrekla: i thought it was fishy.
mircea_popescu: sorta ontopic : the weirdest thing i know of is this miner who encased the boards in clay
ThickAsThieves: i see
ThickAsThieves: i could swear he said more
ThickAsThieves: but i might be reading into it
mircea_popescu: i think lots of people do
Chaang-Noi: 50 would be3 awesome, i want more coins
Chaang-Noi: i sold at 134 230 and 255 then 135 again, i want 70 or 80
mircea_popescu: i've not sold any in a while, the volume is lower but the price is on a definite uptrend
mircea_popescu: i am shocked and amazed how rapidly all that got resolved.
ThickAsThieves: i do think caution is important with AM
mircea_popescu: Chaang-Noi i own millions of s.mpoe. it went from 2 to 70
Chaang-Noi: its the only stock i hold at this point and its held direct with friedcat (other than some day trading with the pts)
Chaang-Noi: thing is, if it was listed on yuor exchange i would never buy it, no account
ThickAsThieves: i have a much harder time profiting from my sdice position
ThickAsThieves: i think many investors are investing in the people
Chaang-Noi: and mp lol that you think i know what happened with my accounts with pirate :)
Chaang-Noi: iv collected a lot more money from AM than i put in, and still hold a large amount
ThickAsThieves: I am selling them after all
Chaang-Noi: what did i learn from pirate mp?
Chaang-Noi: mp i have sold some at 1.499
Chaang-Noi: buying AM at 1.5 is not the same as buying at .1 i think AM was a long shot and might not have done as well as it did, but it did, and is turningout to be best btc investment evar
Chaang-Noi: he was able to sell it, and that is great for him, im glad he did, but as some one who was looking to buy, i think he sold too high and the people who did give him money wont see it back, i could be wrong but i doubt it
mircea_popescu: and in general, there's always going to be this wild eyed "o, i will invest 100k into btc i expect 3475786895 billion"
Chaang-Noi: erik did what was best for him, but in the long run i bet people who trusted him dont make their money back
ThickAsThieves: i think you have to decide which merits matter now
Chaang-Noi: i think erik sold to a bunch of suckers :)
Chaang-Noi: as a share holder im happy with friedcat and would be pissed at eric, but i never bought in cuz i thought eric sold too high
mircea_popescu: ThickAsThieves no, i think he's just not as financially clueless as friedcat.
mircea_popescu: pretty much the only metric i care about.
