mircea_popescu: by
the
time it has
to be defended cby
this sort of principle backtracking...
there's nothing
there
to defend.
mircea_popescu: original linux as a subversive device had
the same property.
mircea_popescu: it's deeper
than
that, imo.
the point here is
that bitcoin is not making any attempt
to limit ownership of its
tokens by say, usg agents.
mircea_popescu: in ~principle~
the fact i can't compile
the kernel with any random compiler i wrote myself is an argument
that linux = windows, ftr.
mircea_popescu: i would guess
they'll hurry up
to pack it up before ben_vulpes' nude amazon charge shows up
BingoBoingo: This one's waiting while I watch Oregon
to see if
this morning brings news
BingoBoingo: I might get something on
that out later
today.
mircea_popescu: and because
they're all bound by
the same ideology, it is
trivial
to produce
the i
they can never print ; whereas because
they are all subject ot
the same pressure, it is nigh on impossible for dA vs dB
to be anywhere as large as i.
mircea_popescu: gadfly
the fucktard ointment, by
taking
their stories and
taking
them apart, adding details
they don't wish circulated, stuff like
that.

Turns out it is likely a not uncommon router chip
that
they all got excited over. Non story.
mircea_popescu: keep all
these
three heads of doom away, it is plain impossible
to not make money.
mircea_popescu: exactly what
the fuck is going
to be "fixed" in
this necessary situation ?
time
to face
the music : a large number of people is NOT a business value. it is a business cost.
assbot: Logged on 11-02-2016 13:55:43; PeterL: would
this be an interesting bet for bitbet? No candidate for
the 2016 republican presidential nomination will receive a majority of pledged delegates before
the republican national convention?
mircea_popescu: "The startups move
to our private compound for 3 months, during which
time we work intensively with
them
to get
the company into
the best possible shape and refine
their pitch

they apply
the bivolaru

☟︎ punkman: I bet
they have 3
teams of "usability" experts.
punkman: they have volume control on soundcloud.com, but
there's
this radio show I listen
to,
they started embedding soundcloud recently and
there's no volume control on it. and of course
there is no way
to find
the embedded
tracks on
their soundcloud profile.
kakobrekla: volume control?
that wouldnt look cool.
punkman: all
that money and
they can't put a fucking volume slider on
their audio player
danielpbarron: i bet on
there being a brokered convention last
timme
BingoBoingo: PeterL: Brokered convention? Could be very interesting. I won't pledge
to bet it without seeing
the form it
takes
punkman: asciilifeform: .. <<
turing-complete vtron or bust << I'll get
there eventually.
Though, I
think
the standard unified-diff representation is useful even if patchons consisting of script are available.

though. Uses
two AA batteries so not ruined when internal nicd or li-ion battery quits
BingoBoingo: My Remington MB-20 beard
trimmer is plainly essential #b-a infrastructure
assbot: Logged on 11-02-2016 06:56:52; punkman: in other nyooz, made some progress on punkdiff. I added file deletions without including
the deleted lines in
the diff. Now working on sane renaming, but I'm
thinking it might be better
to have renames represented as (copy a
to b)+(delete a).

The Sharing Economy, Fetal Leaning In, Disrupting Solid Foods, Open Source Debtors Prison, 3D Printed Drugs, Deepest Learning, Compostable Neural Networks, Cybersecurity, Ayn Rand, Edible Electronics, Virtual Reality (For Babies)"

☟︎ ben_vulpes: punkman: i wish i remembered more, or could effectively dig up
the
thread
danielpbarron: i rememer
that one, and it related
to mining needing
to
take up enormous physical space in order
to scale
ggggg: about 200k coins right now ... max 250k will
take 300 odd years
to mine
the last 5th
punkman: is UNO
the unobtainium one?
ggggg: true, but
there is $ backing it
