pete_dushenski: "…teacher pay in the United States seems more like something from Soviet-era Russia than 21st century America. Wages for teachers are low, egalitarian and not based on performance. We pay phys ed teachers about the same
as math teachers despite the fact that math teachers have greater opportunities elsewhere in the economy.
As a result, we have lots of excellent phys ed teachers but not nearly enough excellent math
pete_dushenski: which is pretty much the ideal balance of signals
as far
as ustards are concerned
ben_vulpes: using "password"
as a password should be mandatory.
pete_dushenski: thestringpuller: you're not alone
as a black-dude-with-an-affinity-slash-respect-for-the-non-black-dude-fro. when i let my hair down, everyone from the ethiopian immigrants here to the locals in jamaica all be like "yo man! hao cum yoo iz gott hayur like mee?!"
mircea_popescu: so, how about : you show me you can in fact live like a man, rather than
as a welfare child, and then i show you where there are partisans, to believe.
mircea_popescu: ascii_butugychag> incidentally, ~nobody~ noticed that i used an ancient vdiff that shat out timestamps << no, i noticed,
as well
as the "false" string.
ascii_butugychag: my first attempt was a very dirty hack, i re-did it
as a properly vtronic thing (to preserve pedigree linkage to classical tinyscheme)
jurov: plus,
as the database/datastructure (both in-memory and on-disk) implementations in C/C++ are retarded, they may be replaced by scheme ones (don't take that
as promise on my part)
danielpbarron: >> Historically Bitcoin is far from "reliable"
as we have all experienced. For instance, we had a ValueOverflow incident on 2010/08/15 in which billions of Bitcoin were generated in 1 single block. << bitcoin didn't even really exist in 2010
mod6: will update the build script that we've all been using (
as referenced by wiki.bitcoin-assets.com) too.
mircea_popescu: the verb, a fila, describes the careful, discreet look a poker player gives his card,
as well
as transitional and usually undesired processes in diodes.
mircea_popescu: what happened is - we used gribble wot. then gribbe was offline unexpectedly, and its maintainer wasn't talking. he was traveling at the time,
as we later found out. nevertheless, for those few days the situation was indistinguishable from an attack and so we made a replacement.
☟︎ danielpbarron: the b-a WoT is the same
as the one in that post; the fork happened afterwards
punkman: "The government agency in turn gives Vigilant access to information about all its outstanding court fees, which the company then turns into a hot list to feed into the free ALPR systems.
As police cars patrol the city, they ping on license plates associated with the fees. The officer then pulls the driver over and offers them a devil’s bargain: get arrested, or pay the original fine with an
adlai is "in the logs" describing the full episode, it's too long to fit in the margins of these. tl;dr: police visited, invited me along so nicely i couldn't refuse, but went home the next day.
as danielpbarron pointed out, jail /= prison
ascii_butugychag: adlai: is this a reference to how i'd like my lisp machine to be brought
as weight to me peine forte et dure ?
ascii_butugychag: but he ~could~ have derped on,
as many do, despite knowing that the perceptron is provably useless
ascii_butugychag: (gotta have some way of keeping folks from simply busting people out.
as usg famously failed to do in iraq.)
ascii_butugychag: works best
as an institution at the heart of an evil empire with massive standing army, etc.
adlai: s/an inmates remain/
as long
as inmates remain alive, paying out their btc/
ascii_butugychag: but
as with the old pit dungeons ('zindan') of bukhara, etc. the 'escape' part is optional
ascii_butugychag: how to price the meals,
as i said, is a case-by-case matter, it will depend on the suspected net worth of the inmate, whether he has someone on the outside to supply ransom, etc.
adlai: not that i'm much of an expert on torture, but my guess is that you want to "break" the victim
as quickly
as possible, get
as many high-value keys in one messy week, then release spent shell
as positive example for next victim
adlai: do you insert the btc buyers who paid power bill until today
as the new victims?
ascii_butugychag: for so long
as a certain address has a positive btc balance, prisoner gets to eat.
adlai leaves the inside scoop to brave men such
as chuckles shroom
ascii_butugychag: interestingly, it is possible to arrange the pieces in such a way that there is no voting circuit
as such (
as central point of failure)
mircea_popescu: hope
as they might that they'll get a certification to substitute absence of actual skill, the world still runs on physics rather than metaphysics.
mircea_popescu: soviets had a russian > cecen thing going,
as a matter of course if not
as a matter of law.
ascii_butugychag: it gets away with whatever in exactly the same way
as the usg it is a tendril of
ascii_butugychag: (there was a spiffy talk at shmoo, which mentioned how nn used in image recognition usually imprints on what - to a human - would be an entirely accidental cluster of pixels, and if you flip'em, it will recognize an obvious, e.g,. cat,
as a refrigerator, etc)
☟︎☟︎☟︎☟︎☟︎☟︎☟︎☟︎ mircea_popescu occasionally runs into midrange business derps who emit things such
as "unlicensed computer"
mod6 pictures alf bashing cars out of his way
as he traverses the beltway
pete_dushenski: "Interestingly, countries in the developing world differ substantially in the amount of know-how they receive through business travel. For example, countries such
as South Africa, Bulgaria, Morocco, and Mauritius receive much more know-how than countries at similar levels of development such
as Peru, Colombia, Chile, Indonesia, or Sri Lanka." << probably time to reassess what "development levels" mean then eh.
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo the "every" thing is not part of the argument
as presented tho. how about "give it to just McCue". "i want it too" "get in the wot"
BingoBoingo: There's people who have lots of time they can spend nothing, and other people for whom managing time is
as critical an optimization problem
as their budget/hodl
mircea_popescu: dude, i tell you truly - i fucking hate argentina, these people are
as dumb
as the delicious cows they raise. nevertheless, sitting here atop a grassy knoll, chowing exceptional beef and homemade apple pies and watching rome burn is a delight for which i am ever thankful.
thestringpuller: Well digital marketing is a dying field, Facebook tried to pull the "Google route" which helped boost their shareholder confidence but
as a long term monetization policy it will fail.
mircea_popescu: apparently those actually eventually paid off, who knew a whole generation of idle retards was going to be educated by them. hollywood raped moscow just
as mosfilm raped san mateo.
mircea_popescu: b) the derps in question thesmelves however are VERY careful
as to how they state the nonsense. it's important that even through the usual muck of pravda it comes through ~how much they worked~ and how ~they vanquished an uncaring, cruel, cold world~, the two pillars of... well basically of socialist realist movies of the 60s.
mircea_popescu: g that "while it may be vulgar and offensive, distasteful content on its own does not violate our policies".[84] It decided to take action on May 29, 2013, after it "become clear that our systems to identify and remove hate speech have failed to work
as effectively
as we would like, particularly around issues of gender-based hate."[85]
AdrianG: mircea_popescu:
as seen where?
BingoBoingo: jurov: Not with cryptological certainty, but he gradually transitioned from using #bitcoin-assets
as he social media identity to this bitcoinerrorlog thing. It's likely him.
mod6: Another round of live-fire tests after building deedbot.org/build-bitcoind-99997K.sh [ with a change to line 61 to: './v.pl p verbose TEST2 asciilifeform_malleus_mikehearnificarum.vpatch'
as to include the mod6_der_high_low_s.vpatch and alf's latest two ] -- the full orchastra builds and works
as expected:
http://dpaste.com/1S8GVD9.txt PeterL: my prediction for republicans: Trump will win several early states, but
as various candidates drop out trump will stay at that 25-30% and one of the other candidates will beat him in the later states
polarbeard: if the map allows it, you may go for cannons and almost surely kill the rush, otherwise you better move those zealots damn well,
as you move the drones out of the way
thestringpuller: yes
as in thing you put in computer with flashing lights and stuff that you play for fun
mircea_popescu: anyway, re nuclear. while it is dirty in a certain way, it has an advantage nothing else does : it would work just
as well with the sun turned off. this is a big deal, fundamentally. whether it means anything in practice or not... well...
assbot: Here's where you forget about "wind power"
as an alternative source of power. on Trilema - A blog by Mircea Popescu. ... (

mircea_popescu: jurov the saggy tits thing invalidates the 'argument' such
as it is.
mircea_popescu: <jurov> since the 1950s the hydropower potential of Vah river in Slovakia was almost completely developed and exactly this happened, lakes brim-full of stuff noone knows how to dispose << this may be, but on the other hand romania exists
as an industrial power rather than an argentinian farm shithole strictly because of massive hydro power developments post ww2
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform> but wunderwaffen-warfare is ~largely~ this kind of thing. << quite very much so. and tlp's "frantic activity
as a cover for impotence" explains a lot of it.
mircea_popescu: however, smaller parts of it - such
as electricity, DO in fact depend on grid.
mircea_popescu: meanwhile, the representational needs of the usg are exactly highest in MN
as opposed to say alaska. because THAT is the true fronteer atm, separating the bundys from the bahamases.
mod6: especially if you can get 4x
as much from hydroelectric
mircea_popescu: anyway. let us remind at this juncture that various blathering imbeciles, such
as that dude from coinbase, or that dude from the nsa, or that other dude from the nsa, or that other derp "supported" this raging lunacy.

as. changing gruntwork jobs (which is what power generation is), ceretis paribus, doesn't matter in the slightest to the global ecological footprint. if anything,
as bitcoin mining grows into even the double-digits of global power use, it will create a scarcity of electricity for non-mining uses, driving up prices in those other domains, thus decreasing less essential usage, decr
BingoBoingo: Well now Coindesk lives
as this undead thing entirely subsumed to Barry Silber and operated by his mouthpiece Ryan 'TwoBitIdiot' Selkis
danielpbarron: i turned down the offer to sell coin, not because of where it would go so much
as because I don't know a reliable way to replentish my stock (I haven't used coinbase in a long while)
BingoBoingo: danielpbarron: You piece is going up
as soon
as I harmonize some of the vocabulary.
BingoBoingo: pete_dushenski: There won't be an 11 or an XI. The branding isn't
as good
as X

http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=25-01-2016#1385035 << this makes no sense. if your gf is a secretary and she moves from paper company (A) to another paper company (B) of the same size and just
as far from home and for the same pay (but without that bitch midge from accounts payable), the paper industry will make no more "evil ghg", nor kill more fuzzy penguins or whatever it is you imagine anthropomorphised
