that's a separate
tinyscheme

to
that.
mircea_popescu: "hey guise, is seattle legit ? my girlfriend got a job here but i dunno... i looked on
the itnernet and it seems like a real
town and whatnot, but how can i be sure ?"
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo i always
thought someone should just
take all
the bs "hey guise is bitcoin legit ?" noob questions,
take
them
to craigslist, replace bitcoin with name of city and go all concerned-like
mircea_popescu: this is one
thing.
the other is
that you could have said in
the docs.
BingoBoingo: I catches
that as well as commedy redfish and bluefish.
BingoBoingo: <asciilifeform> instrument of
trolling >> a
trawl? << A
Trawler, like
the boat. It puts out lines
that catch lulz.
☟︎ Reydev: tortilla refers
to
the pietila guy?
polarbeard: I certainly shaked
the
tree a bit, will recheck
mircea_popescu: the 1st symptom of a well written guide : author knows exactly what
the user did wrong.
mircea_popescu: punkman mine ? just poking fun at
the guy, nothing really. linked for
the vids.
punkman: tldr of
the article you linked?
mircea_popescu: i guess i missed
that boat, what with digg and myspace banning me and all.
mircea_popescu: punkman what's he up
to
these days ? can't be poker, can it.
BingoBoingo: * mircea_popescu reads punkman's article by some lawyer. 1.st line ? "Bitcoin, a peer-to-peer electronic cash system, is intended
to allow" <<
Tis of immense value as an instrument of
trolling
PeterL: I went
to school with Crystal Champagne
mircea_popescu: Reydev you have nfi lmao. look up into uppity
tortilla.
mircea_popescu: i guess
that can happen... i once knew a chick Dusty Diamond. she was a... ahem. cough. coder.
Reydev: i guess
there will be Athenes enough in
the BTC space
that love
to show off
their holdings
punkman: Athene is not
that obscure
mircea_popescu: Reydev i was actually in
the wow closed beta. it... sucked.
mircea_popescu: (iirc she ended up a candidate for some derpy party somewhere in
their nordic system
there. denmark perhaps)
Reydev: he was kind of a celeb
there
mircea_popescu: notably, i have NEVER seen a woman so deeply humiliated as
that chick obviously is
fluffypony: mircea_popescu: he said he wanted
to be famous, so I was namedropping his name like he's famous :)
Reydev: there was something highly entertaining about
the guy, in all its cringeyness
fluffypony: I was joking - he wanted
to be famous, so I was name-dropping
mircea_popescu lives in
the sort of cave where even kardashian is more of a starlet
than a celebrity.
Reydev: actually
there are many "celebrities" by now only known by
their internet persona
mircea_popescu: where's myspace,
the first billion dollar interwebs "corporation" ?
Reydev: But
the internet offers
the possibility of pseudonymity
Reydev: You know
there are people who like
to hide
their fortune and
there are
those who love
to be on
the cover of Forbes
mircea_popescu: then
the answer is yes, all
that's left
to establish is if
the community in question is as close
to you as your wife.
Reydev: Hi all. For
those holding a decent amount of BTC or other crypto, would you ever consider (pseudonymously) self-identifying on a richlist-like site purely existing
to flaunt your riches?
mircea_popescu skips
this nonsense. derp does not have
the first clue as
to bitcoin.

assbot: Logged on 12-02-2016 08:01:06; punkman: "AFAIK Mark Karpelès hasn't been allowed any visits, not even contacts with his family and is not allowed
to use a computer either. He already lost 35 kg but still hasn't accepted
to be
the scapegoat, which seems
to be why he's still detained after more
than 4 months, without any
trial or official charges…"
punkman: '"Oh, you wanted
to *increment a counter*?! Good luck with
that!" --
the distributed systems literature'
BingoBoingo: punkman: And now
the devils have
to confront it
BingoBoingo: <mircea_popescu> BingoBoingo wait, are
those NAVY seals ? << yes

☟︎ ben_vulpes: "talking
to
the community about my “analysis paralysis loop” caused by
the excessive amount of available
tools
to choose from and
to investigate resulted in
the community suggesting
to
try out, spend
time, learn and investigate four more
technologies
that I haven’t even considered in
the first place. Good job, Javascript!"

assbot: Logged on 24-01-2016 15:00:13; asciilifeform: perhaps she had
the face of a human, rather
than ruminant, nfi
mircea_popescu: kids should just go snipe hunting like
their grandfathers instead.
mircea_popescu: i have nfi idea who even entertains
the nonsense of
the "internet
trader" mind, but it's beyond fucking ridiculous.
mircea_popescu: danielpbarron> would it help if
there weren't any expectation of speedy order matching? I don't really care about sniping so much as setting long
term orders and letting it sit for a while << kinda
the entite fucking point of a broker in
the first place.
shinohai: I'm not sure, more r/btc drama I haven't read
through yet. I had
to stop reading and help a buddy fix his broken core wallet.
