mircea_popescu: " I would rather trust my funds with Cryptostocks than MPEx" well that's a winning proposition for sure. i would say he should, and that'll be punishment enough.
mircea_popescu: i knew i should have put "who gets lucky" in there too
mircea_popescu: i don't think mine are even translatable in the first place. maybe by someone that's mentally ill and quite drunk.
mircea_popescu: DreadKnight it's an absolute cesspool. i doubt 4chan could make a worse one if they tried.
mircea_popescu: lol "a professional" ==== "someone who gave <tips> on a forum populated by retards"

mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo so, accident at the distillery in edinburgh. one dead. work safety inspection follows. inspector interviews eyewitness workers
mircea_popescu: o no, gotta express oneself. here we are after just a few short month on the campus, with something to say on all topics and we always wanted to try the swamp out!
mircea_popescu: i have no fucking idea how all these murican types mange to get through college. seems to me the most, the BY FAR MOST difficult thing for them is sitting the fuck down, keeping quiet and paying attention.
mircea_popescu: ;;later tell coinfire how about i give you a bitcoin in exchange for not being retarded anymore.
mircea_popescu: 0 backers pledged 0.00090000 Ƀ 38 days to go << how the fuck does that work.
mircea_popescu: "Here we are just a few short months later and we’ve heard from various people in the industry that we are quickly creating one of the most reliable cryptocurrency news sites and we’ve gathered up a team of kick ass volunteers to help us grow this madness out."

mircea_popescu: "Mike (Executive Editor) - Mike has been following Bitcoin for the last several months and got fed up of sites that are full of advertisements and didn’t provide the latest news"
mircea_popescu: ah cool. well it's the first time i see this thing, seems it appeared sometime last week. what's it, like some sort of internet radio show basically ?
mircea_popescu: but yeah, kinda surpriosed not more people are trying to arbitrage it, short brk bet on no sorta thing
mircea_popescu: as far as i'm concerned, when the luminaries of the previous generation are careful to avoid playing you, more recognition is not really needed. it'll come, of course, but it's moot.
mircea_popescu: yes. i mean they claimed to want to invite someone who's short their thing, but to not be able to find one.
mircea_popescu: it already paid lulz in spades. buffett held his yearly meet, supposedly "couldn't find any short". just the embarassment of that...
mircea_popescu: well, the brk bet had the major advantage of 1k zeroconf. that has ~0% chances of being rejected.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform: ;;google senior executive service pay << these folk get options. whole different story, as bubbles happen 3-5 times in a lifetime.
mircea_popescu: otherwise they may end up bamboozled by the nonsense fetishism of pseudo-power the ycombinator swamp is pusing, "in order to interact with power acceptably you must give it away in exchange for the trappings of it". tlp discusses the matter extensively and well.
mircea_popescu: more importantly, gotta show the kids what it means to be the boss and what a boss does.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform:they aren't rich, in the customary sense - but not paupers. << compare what'd happen to the us bureaucrat pauper vs the russian bureaucrat once someone in a hostile nation put the kaibosh on them. they're paupers.
mircea_popescu: it's the easiest skill to recognise, too. so... not much hope. they're hiring people, sure, but people only google/microsoft/apple/amazon would hire if they didn't.
mircea_popescu: decimation: at any rate it's not clear to me that clowns like Hayden or Alexander would even recognize skills if they saw them << precisely. suppose they DO recognise them, like, "this chick looks like she could suck a golfball through a gardenhose." now what ? the last guy that recognised that skill lost his job.
mircea_popescu: decimation: Hayden emphasized that the personnel problems are far less significant than the technological ones << well, i disagree. now, from a bureaucrat pov, sure, they generally can fill any jobs they want filled, according to their selection process. this however does not mean they are gaining any sort of valuable human capital.
mircea_popescu: and the idea was only boring women get married anyway.
mircea_popescu: dude. lordosis just like that is usually a pathologic curvature of the spine. teh lordosis ~behaviour~ is different.
mircea_popescu: step 1. set down bottle without looking. part 2. set it down on usb stick. step 3. bottle overturns and falls over, exactly cork down. part 4. nothing further happens.
mircea_popescu: ben_vulpes if you mean the lordosis ~behaviour~ it's this female mammal response to being hawt.
mircea_popescu: kakobrekla you're doing it wrong. kbd should be in front of monitor not behind
mircea_popescu: all these noobs going join/part are kinda lulzy by now
mircea_popescu: there should be a new constitutional amendment. "no one may run for elected office, be it presidential, as member of congress or senate or any other, who can not recite the entirety of all laws, regulations etc"
