decimation: mircea_popescu: it was more like "what china is doing is okay because we do it too!"
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: the funny part is that there are various limits, in fact, because actual civil servant gets pension, health cover, holidays, statutorily
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: try 300 mn
assbot: Logged on 25-06-2015 00:19:40; mircea_popescu: is blondy swallowing a casino chip ?
ag3nt_zer0: mircea_popescu: yes, I still have to learn the ropes in these ways... don't fret, my inner psychopath is learning
ag3nt_zer0: mircea_popescu: yes
ag3nt_zer0: mircea_popescu: the principal said that I have a choice... but it was just a sidelined statement really
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: 'hangout' != fiction
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: which pile
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: i think he plays a role similar to what hanbot once did on tardstalk
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: doubt it. he's switched 'discuses' a couplea times in the past few yrs, it looks like

asciilifeform recalls the ordeal of convincing mircea_popescu that al schwartz isn't a 'timecube'
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: he's a compulsive ant-stomper. went where the enviro-whiners congregate
asciilifeform: 'Anyway, it is my considered opinion (along with, I wager, most everyone else's) that positively the ONLY way that's getting show to be inconsistent is by some intoxicated kids during having sex or somesuch. Everything else was tried to death.' (from mircea_popescu's www) <<<< 'ftl drive will be discovered by an ee student on the verge of flunking, designing stero amps.' (al schwartz)
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: y'know, all kinds of folks spent whole lives 'lala i can't hear you' to cantor's diagonal.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: didja know that paul erdos had a story about these ?
asciilifeform: back to the miners, i say that if money were the handy iq test mircea_popescu suggests it is, this kind of situation would be quite impossible.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu has it
asciilifeform: life of miner is a life of a soldier, disposable, as mircea_popescu reminded us last night
asciilifeform: which is the item mircea_popescu is describing as not existing? and which - not ?
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: my contention was that you describe will as a spectrum, perhaps between 'spineless clerk' and 'napoleon'
asciilifeform: will is not a scalar. perelman has will, mircea_popescu has will, i have will, and napoleon had will, and comparing magnitudes alone is rank nonsense
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: well, the impression i get is that you think 'will' is a scalar
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: fire away
mircea_popescu: !v assbot:mircea_popescu.rate.lobbes.2:81f948807d830af41e59c4726108dd6ddae1f995b52730f156735b2897c1a68b

assbot: Logged on 20-02-2015 03:34:05; mircea_popescu: In addition, anti-fascism was never to have as cheap as today. Previously, he could cost you your life, today it costs no more than lip service among peers - and heard to this, the exclusive circle of the upright, decent, brave. The fighters against law form the peerage of enlightened society. Or even a shot polemical: Here is an indulgence trade takes place; the moral superiority can be acquired sim
thestringpuller: ;;later tell mircea_popescu On Qntra you said, "This is a resource war and you people are poor." Well some poor redditard was venting this morning and in his rage said, "I wish I had the money to...do xyz". Ironic how denial turns to anger, almost like stages of grief.
assbot: Logged on 09-07-2015 03:21:46; mircea_popescu: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=09-07-2015#1194169 << i didn't misunderstand it. i simply do not credit it at all, just like i don't credit that an object could be arbitrarily pink but shapeless.
asciilifeform: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=09-07-2015#1194583 << would like to see this expanded if mircea_popescu has time. ☝︎

assbot: Logged on 09-07-2015 03:18:58; mircea_popescu: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=09-07-2015#1194158 << bitcoin actually has enough power structure to enforce a uniform rejection of usg leap second.
asciilifeform: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=09-07-2015#1194577 << if mircea_popescu has figured out how to 'reject usg time', i'm all ears. ☝︎
BingoBoingo: <mircea_popescu> ... << the going rate in that market is a few hundred. << I read the original message as hope for a winning "ticket"
assbot: Logged on 09-07-2015 01:22:46; asciilifeform: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=08-07-2015#1193979 << mircea_popescu misunderstood my point entirely. which was, that it is possible to have arbitrarily original ideas in, e.g., mathematics, while being certifiably worthless at 'making phriends and influencing people'
assbot: Logged on 05-07-2015 21:44:22; mircea_popescu: that's really the tension here : usians currently use the us like inept argentines: they huddle around the coast and pull their cocks.
assbot: Logged on 08-07-2015 23:39:06; mircea_popescu: http://polymatharchives.blogspot.in/2015/01/the-inappropriately-excluded.html << this thing is such bs. if the intelligent need to whine on an obscure blog, and for "society" to GIVE THEM shit they're about as intelligent as a mensa chapter. which isn't all that flattering.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu's intel dept. - possibly
asciilifeform: for that matter, 'you' may be one of mircea_popescu's pogopregnated chixxx
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu et al were contemplating a surrender to ntp even.
asciilifeform: not from under the bed of the gurlz mircea_popescu picks up and pogopregnates ☟︎
assbot: Logged on 08-07-2015 23:32:00; mircea_popescu: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=08-07-2015#1193615 << this is a hollywood fiction. "the strong, silent type". not found in nature.

asciilifeform: solrodar: might wanna ask mircea_popescu if he will award the prize for this item, which is not what he asked for, before putting in serious effort
asciilifeform: solrodar: tell you what. i'm not the one who put up the bounty (that was mircea_popescu) but i was the one who asked for the chart. if you can produce a dependency graph in s-expression format, embodying the info in this graph, ~and~ show me how to get same using open source utils, i will say the job is done
solrodar: mircea_popescu: one of your blog readers
punkman: mircea_popescu: close enough
punkman: mircea_popescu: I liked the toilet analogy
punkman: mircea_popescu: does romanian have a word for sociopath?
assbot: Logged on 20-06-2015 19:29:12; mircea_popescu: the notion that human agency is ever "effectual" is such rank nonsense to begion with, that a pretense of "saving action for optimal effect" can only be regarded in psychogenic terms
assbot: Logged on 02-02-2015 23:03:08; mircea_popescu: "I've noticed certain repeating characteristic in the writing of many members of this forum: they construct grammatically correct sentences but absolutely disregard the underlying semantics: incoming vs. outgoing, local vs. remote, source vs. destination, etc. Here in regards to TCP/IP ports, but I observed that in regards to pretty much any technical issue."
assbot: Logged on 02-02-2015 23:04:03; mircea_popescu: it was highlighted by intel about two weeks ago, and we're generally tracing it to philippines "top quality" content farms working for a number of (mostly ct and wash based) pr firms.
trinque: ascii_field: reminds me of mircea_popescu's recent comments to the effect of roughly "We've done it! I exist!"

ascii_field: as described in mircea_popescu's tale
ascii_field: anyway, since this thread came back to life, i will point out that mircea_popescu is right re: the notion of time being necessary for a bitcoin net. but it doesn't have to come from a clock as traditionally understood
ascii_field: mircea_popescu chronically links the two, but they are entirely independent
ascii_field: mircea_popescu: guess where i'm posting from
ascii_field utterly fails to grasp what mircea_popescu is speaking of
ascii_field: mircea_popescu: from what i can tell, the 'hackteam' folks were paid hundreds of thousands of euros to do things that i consider a weekend's work
williamdunne: mircea_popescu: Some are pretty enthusiastic about it
ascii_field: mircea_popescu: usg was a major client
ascii_field: mircea_popescu: no, it isn't 'greatest leak ever' - but certainly the most complete gutting of a usg contractor in history
assbot: Logged on 08-07-2015 17:07:03; mircea_popescu: hackteam
ascii_field: mircea_popescu: let's have the finale of http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=08-07-2015#1193367 ? ☝︎

ben_vulpes: i think mircea_popescu designed something like that for eulora

asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: you want them on the other side, aha
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: many, many more people who can 'commandeer' a broom closet with ethernet
asciilifeform takes mircea_popescu's advice, hushes
assbot: Logged on 08-07-2015 02:03:34; mircea_popescu: decimation the problem of fitting real time to blocks is in fact going straight to the root of the world. solve it, get nobel.
ben_vulpes: <asciilifeform> so much as opening pogo and touching inside multiplies the cost of the operation. << and yet mircea_popescu had this done
williamdunne: mircea_popescu: I guess. At the very least the cause of it is good though
williamdunne: mircea_popescu: 530 is pretty ideal, no? Sign of difficulty growth
assbot: Logged on 07-07-2015 21:14:04; jurov: mircea_popescu: is the ftp server in the vicinity of your bitcoin node? it went full speed for minutes, then it suddenly throttled to 6kbps
