mircea_popescu: pankkake, well so that you need to tell yourself then :D
mircea_popescu: pankkake, i've noticed there's a hard wall where people who are trustworthy and well known but who don't do anything major are about 1.x on average, even if over 100 raqtings
mircea_popescu: well, i would argue it is not spamming it in that it actually reflects both trust and political intent. which is what the wot does.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform: doesn't have a purpose or an intent or a role. it simply is << ever play the '80s game 'M.U.L.E.' ? << no i haven't. for my shame and to my detriment, it turns out!
mircea_popescu: this is absurd, calling a woman on the phone is jerky ? that's the anti-jerky.
mircea_popescu: meanwhile it's... 16. the wind is moreover pleasant. i don't even wear an overcoat.
mircea_popescu: you should see the chicks huddled up in heavy duty winter wear
mircea_popescu: they don't do skirts here either, they think it's winter and muy muy frio.
mircea_popescu: apparently i found the only decent connection in all of ba
mircea_popescu: trilema feed only publishes articles 15 mins after trilema blog

mircea_popescu: <BingoBoingo> Oh, the many people whose departure made $100+ BTC possible << this. very very much this.
mircea_popescu: Goat owe me 3740.35 BTC. This is a serious scam and he is playing rich with MY money. 2012 I invested a lot in his Tygrr-bot. I thought it sounded like a cool arbitrage bot. It was hard to go profit and a lesser amount was lost to exchange failure.
☟︎ mircea_popescu: bitcoinpete: and if anyone has any office chair recommendations, shoot away! << aeron flux
mircea_popescu: dub: bitcoinpete: -assets official position is siding with big oil fyi << omg such a hater this guy
mircea_popescu: oh btw, fair warning : i got about two day/'s worth of logs backlog over here. prepare to be spammed to all hell.
mircea_popescu: bitcoinpete: and quite possible the last << especially.
mircea_popescu: anyway, gave him a shot of romanian spirit, apparently the ukraine is fucked.
mircea_popescu: i just ran into a completely destroyed ukrainian in the elevator. i'm like "5th floor ?" he's all paranoid "how doid you know!!1"
mircea_popescu: nor is there room for human purpose, or human goals. kinda the point of bitcoin, after all. kinda why all the "equalitarian" coins and mental devices, and all the preoccupation with accessibility or w/e are so funny.
mircea_popescu: princessnell: economies are aggregations of human actions << and in that they become unhuman. basically a major point of that article is that this desperate clutching at straws, people trying to retain their people-relevance in economics is a little lulzy. there's no room for politics in economy.
mircea_popescu: moiety, ask him to take you next they do something in his area :D
mircea_popescu: princessnell: i think it's bizarre to call it non-teleological personally << this opens up a large debate as to whether life has purpose. i happen to hold that it doesnt, which informs the choice of vocabulary. it'll have to be translated (apolitic ?) to avoid linking that dependency in there.

mircea_popescu: asciilifeform: penguirker is bog-slow << it's actually broken pankkake. it sometimes publishes 2nd article in list when the 1st shows in rss.

mircea_popescu: asciilifeform, was transparently obvious what it was doing to anyone with two neurons to rub together neh ?
mircea_popescu: alternatively the polish guy, wywliam or what was it. dba numeristrade
mircea_popescu: also ask princessnell for tutoring, she's actually competent in this field.
mircea_popescu: ThickAsThieves: i want to make sure i'm not inventing ideas someone else has already << the problem here is that you're looking at reading by the bookshelf, not by the book. there's an immense load and no directly obvious way to even systematize it. hayek tho may be a good start if you've not read him fully.
mircea_popescu: experience shows the most successvful (as measured by gross intake, of course) scams are never the intellectually respectable ones.
