mircea_popescu: Dr. Gleason eventually came, and, in the presence of Caronia, had a discussion with Dr. Charno about off-label uses for Xyrem (insomnia, restless legs, etc). Is Caronia responsible? Should he have stopped Gleason? The court said yes, and convicted him.

mircea_popescu: they're all complex porrige of many things.
mircea_popescu: compare basic and lisp. there is NOTHING basic about any one basic instruction

mircea_popescu: asciilifeform true, true
mircea_popescu: Apocalyptic so let the mass think it has power, and then get indignant whenever mpoe-pr shows up.
mircea_popescu: adding to that : generally at the fruit stand, the peaches which have all the bugs swarming in are the best.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform in the same sense using bitcoin "written" by the sadly famous taaki doesn't bother me.
mircea_popescu: also, i'm with Mats_cd03. asciilifeform's ideas are tailored for the 1%. nttawwt, but kind-of dangerous if you're not in.
mircea_popescu: Mircea Popescu Pity the US wasn't keeping it all in #Bitcoin.

mircea_popescu: imagine, you know ?
mircea_popescu: but the cock is going in.
mircea_popescu: make it pleasant on yourself or not, lube up or not, whatever suits

mircea_popescu: "Partly this is because lawmakers and regulators, spooked by early hype and the Mt. Gox disaster, are never going to afford Bitcoin services the kind of autonomy they'd need in order to flourish. Partly it's because there are conceptual problems with the Bitcoin architecture itself.
