mircea_popescu: you know the difference between antoinette and teh populace isn't that she's richer than them, it's that unlike them she dun care if she dies.

mircea_popescu: but even that.
mircea_popescu: i dun credit this. you kill a guy, you've killed some guy. there's no "i had to kill him", is there ? there's no "i had to eat this icecream". you eat it, you get fat, you don't, you don't.

mircea_popescu: it's just this bucket shop where you can pretend like you're trading bitcoin
mircea_popescu: how is bitfinex an exchange at all ?
mircea_popescu: "Plus if you lose, you lose magic beans that were worthless anyway."
mircea_popescu: "There's another fun gotcha: the winnings are paid out in bitcoin. So if bitcoin falls, and you win the bet, the value of the magic beans you won also goes down."

mircea_popescu: duh. because bitcoin people are stupid, in both cases. why else ?
mircea_popescu: "Why not addressing one of the several elephants in the room? Why is 90% of their revenue from recruiting new investonomers? Why is the exchange owner taking such a huge role in "educating" his "investors"? Why is every single company co-owned by the exchange owner?"
mircea_popescu: lol it's from a jimmothy thread ?

mircea_popescu: The20YearIRCloud: I'd hope that driving rates below zero and seeing little inflation would be more of a sign to keneysian economists that believe that inflation is solely driven by interest rates << there's no possible significance to keynesians anymore. they're a cult by now, like the collodial silver derps.

mircea_popescu: no, i'm eusocial, and i take offense at the dilution of terminology.
mircea_popescu: in other news, http://i.imgur.com/gjnU3b1.jpg
mircea_popescu: just about zero scientific merit to it.
mircea_popescu: thestringpuller the entire "eusocial" bs is little more than socialist propaganda.
