mircea_popescu: JERRY: (Scolding) George. (To salesman) Sorry, we’re just waiting for David Puddy.
mircea_popescu: GEORGE: (Threatening) Hold it! One more step and we’re walkin’!
mircea_popescu: GEORGE: Look at these salesmen. The only thing these guys fear is the walk-out. No matter what they say, you say, "I’ll walk out of here right now!"
mircea_popescu: kakobrekla yea but what did you say to get that email ? "hello" ?
mircea_popescu: Dimsler some make their way here and then contribute significantly.
mircea_popescu: who knows, maybe among them are some who can add value, and will.
mircea_popescu: why's this surprising to anyone (other than those derps) is beyond me.
mircea_popescu: or, for that matter, in the horizon of the conference derps.
mircea_popescu: petty crime is perhaps (with the exception of an academic career) the worst fucking choice someone could make
mircea_popescu: criminals don't matter here for the same reason they don't matter irl. if they had any sense they'd find better use of their time.
mircea_popescu: meanwhile, the same sort of bullshit was being peddled about silkroad
mircea_popescu: anecdotes are worth about five satoshi each. get a million, maybe it matters.
mircea_popescu: forum "investors" keep investing, fiat consumers keep fiating... it's uncanny.

mircea_popescu: and it also goes to jurov's q as to the diff between pki and nanowot.
mircea_popescu: but my point is narrower : that no wot can stand on its own. one of the manyt reasons pki is broken by design, not the most visible one but quite fundamental.
mircea_popescu: well yes, now they can, because you've leveraged the public forum to strengthen the wot.

mircea_popescu: jurov afaik he has been working (for the past two years) towards a distributed system
