mircea_popescu: who the fuck even came up with the idea the concept of "career" is meaningful in a space which mostly aims to hire 20yos.
kdomanski:
mircea_popescu: you know there's software outside of what the silly con valley does

mircea_popescu: and ftrr, what is a "career" ? who do you know that has "a career" ?

mircea_popescu: (that said, i very much doubt any fallout whatsoever can ever occur. so he lost a job ? gets another one. or gets welfare. big whoop.)
trinque:
mircea_popescu: I was thinking of releasing a script that you hand a doc, and it farts out the address
midnightmagic: pete_dushenski,
mircea_popescu: thanks, I'll re-read.
midnightmagic:
mircea_popescu: I'd like to start pointing people away from proofofexistence and other incompatible nonsense and IIRC, deedbot is careful/efficient in how it stores stuff in the blockchain. If that is so, I'd like to point newbs at.. like a website or something, if it exists.

mircea_popescu: people who depend on welfare should learn to suck the cock of their patrons better.

mircea_popescu: so based on mike_c's discussion last night, i think i have a very good addition to b-a kako. it'd go like this :

mircea_popescu: <shinohai> What kind of poppycock is that? Won't hire me if I have been negative online. << it's not hiring as much as living wage layer two. do you want to be like the niggers, getting free pills and welfare checks ? that's living wage layer zero. move to the ghetto. are you instead happy with the minimum wage, tax rebates, etc bullshit ? that's layer one, move
kdomanski:
mircea_popescu: I understand is is colorful metaphor for "if you can't take the fallout, STFU and keep your opinions to yourself"?
kdomanski:
mircea_popescu: then again, you aren't most people

mircea_popescu: getting people fired
kdomanski:
mircea_popescu: the problem is, they actually manage to impact relevant stuff with their bullshit

mircea_popescu: i don't solve problems. i just throw away other people's solutions.

mircea_popescu: either don't be stupid, if you can, or if you can't, then don't be negative. sorcerers in the celestial city. zombies in the zombie horde.

mircea_popescu: on the plus side, you won't have any actual work to do, that sort where you could encounter and might have to overcome your own stupidity and general human limitations.

mircea_popescu: ml also interesting for all the misdirection and denial work Peter Gutmann pgut001@cs.auckland.ac.nz sinks into the matter.

mircea_popescu, the hashbang guys wanted me to come to San Fran and work lol

mircea_popescu: so wait, what happened here is i just profited 3 btc off this guy's backup failure ?!
trinque:
mircea_popescu: can vote however she likes; that's just a different chick

mircea_popescu: nah, she's got a few screws loose and doesn't see fit to let me handle 'em with a screwdriver

mircea_popescu: must kill because can.
punkman:
mircea_popescu: punkman this approach is fundamentally at odds with the "lord over a domain" concept of software development prevalent here. << myeah, last attempt didn't work out too well, and I'd rather make my yearly sysadmining allotment shrink than grow

mircea_popescu: very easy to implement.
ag3nt_zer0:
mircea_popescu: what do you mean by this? "he can "win" 315 mn, but he sure as fuck may not turn that into 1mn turkeys."
punkman:
mircea_popescu: sure, but can't sysadmin the box it lives on (and don't want to fight ddos other than making application cache better and whatnot)
punkman:
mircea_popescu: orphaned is not the right word there, consider that if the last two patches in your V set create two branches, you can't choose a branch. V will try to apply both and doesn't check filehashes during the patching process.
anton_osika: And again, my physical embodiment is openly registered, if you are in the neighbourhood
mircea_popescu. And I might not be as dumb as it seems from the backup policies ..
anton_osika: That's why I'm harassing
mircea_popescu until I make him smile.
punkman:
mircea_popescu: very common with mysql folks
anton_osika: Well I believe
mircea_popescu would honor a contract where the couterparty has no competition at identifying himself. It would be pleasant to extend the notion of trust to identity in the physical domain however.
anton_osika:
mircea_popescu: I liked your piece on formalised identity based trust system (WoT). Are there any attempts at extending it to our physical existances such as property?
anton_osika: shinohai: Excellent. Could you also advice me on how to successfully invite
mircea_popescu for dinner at my home in Stockholm?

mircea_popescu: <asciilifeform> the other interesting thing is that the market is segmented in such a way that anyone who doesn't want mcfood ends up paying for ~all~ the alt-crackpotteries, not merely the logical ones << this is a very valid point, and the one spot where alf's ideas re meta-lizzards sound most persuasive. i do not believe the market is gerrymandered as it is by accident.

http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=05-09-2015#1263340 << the proposition that the library of alexandria has anything to do with a bunch of bronze-age derps is ridoinculous. that event was a clear cut case of the elites of one culture wiping the elites of another culture it had defeated. this happens to be right and proper. the solving of the indian problem is nothing of the kind, but simply the elit
