as time goes on, well, maybe buy?
nubbins`: in fact, i feel deeply indebted to the place,
as i essentially learned my trade there

as-cat

as opposed to southern canada :D
nubbins`: treating drug abuse

☟︎ trinque: I took pete_dushenski's "get shot"
as "get fucked/who cares"
trinque:
as for the dole, there's always public housing too
trinque: this struck me
as a socialist perspective.
pete_dushenski always reads 'checks'

as a small hole in your chest is a hole, whether made by bullet or meteorite
nubbins`: hmm i bought a bunch of shit at the homebrew shop yesterday, and one of the items rang in
as $0.00
mircea_popescu: yes. so the illusion that "this car made out of cardboard is road worthy" can be maintained for
as long
as nobody takes it on the road.
mircea_popescu: basically the only way this thing can pretend to exist is if nobody gives a shit, and for
as long
as nobody does.
adlai: fees race up
as you fight over block space, price moons, democracy wins
adlai: you'd still have a finite proportion of the network, other miners could print votes for themselves, or just process transactions normally, business
as usual, which still lets others print their own ballots
assbot: Logged on 07-12-2015 07:58:25; punkman: "Imagine a world where people can send money
as easily
as we send emails" << yeah sending email is such a joy these days
gmaxwell:
as there is a bug for "background update" or something
punkman: "Imagine a world where people can send money

☟︎ punkman: "President Obama's former Deputy Press Secretary joins BitFury
as new Chief Communications Officer: "Why I believe in the Blockchain and Why You Should Too""
punkman: "We implement segregated witness right now, soon. What we do is discount the witness data by 75% for block size. So this enables us to say we allow 4x
as many signatures in the chain. What this normally corresponds to, with a difficult transaction load, this is around 75% capacity increase for transactions that choose to use it. Another way of looking at it, is that we raise the block size
phf: it sounds like ascii knows exactly what he's doing where's i'm struggling with simply getting all the required elements together. i've gotten
as far
as reliably reading gpg packets from a tcp stream, but i still have too many open questions. i'm thinking that my attempt is entirely pointless, but i'll continue it
as a learning exercise. i publish code in a week or two, so that all can learn how not to write c :)
BingoBoingo: Feeding the dropped
as baby crowd greater, targeted idiocies is a form of suicide promotion
BingoBoingo: Building an XT that isn't XT movement. Dropped
as baby crowd parrots targeted idiocy. Makes not dropped
as baby people question whether world is worth saving much less living in.
ascii_field: what exactly is the point of targeting the dropped-
as-baby crowd ?
ascii_field: BingoBoingo: 'fork so that no fork' is honest idiocy in the sense that nobody could possibly begin to process the sentence
as something like a proper lie, vs. simple babble
ascii_field: it is 'replacement' in the same sense
as a penny is a replacement for a 15 amp edison fuse
BingoBoingo: <ascii_field> agents of dropped-

mod6: I think I'm just being dense here, but let's talk about that for a second. Snapshots
as in, we make our own busybox package from a previously unrolled/extracted package that we've verified?
mircea_popescu:
as far
as generation shitheads is concerned, the world ain't enough.
adlai likes the concept, but idiocy rears its head when such grants invariably come from confiscation, sometimes even suggesting inflation
as "a source of tax-free revenue for the government, which could help fund BIG"
adlai: "Work, which [Russell] defines
as moving bits of matter around at or near the surface of the earth, is not the aim of life. If it were, people would enjoy it. Yet, by and large, those who actually carry it out shun work whenever possible. It is those who tell others what to do who laud its virtues."
pete_dushenski: if the kids knew they were aping fawlty towers, i wouldn't be nearly

as opposed to 'cars with indirect human drivers' (ie. self-driving)
mitch_callahan: but all it was was a big button which called their operator, and it was business
as usual
pete_dushenski:
as to the non-web 1.0-ites, what are these, farmers market stall operators ? since we're working with your experience, let's make it concrete, ya ?
pete_dushenski: let's do one at a time, first: taxi medallions are essentially very expensive and carefully allocated driver's permits for cabbies. this permit can run $50k+++ in larger cities and gives the owner the right to operate a cab in that city. they're seen
as an investment by the cabbies because they often appreciate in value, even to the point that they're based down from father-to-son in the way a feudal lord would'
pete_dushenski:
as well
as "boomers" very strong desire to maintain, if not grow, the little patch of earth they've thus far claimed for themselves
pete_dushenski: the generational gap lies more in youth's fascination with the new and the aged man's acceptance of the status quo
as what's (mostly) worked every day in his life thus far
adlai must be spoiled
as well, in his expectations of specification
adlai: still, my wonder stands... you can build altturds, that will function on the network
as deterministically
as powerturd or phoundatiurd
mircea_popescu: PeterL the only way otp works is with prior agreement.
as alf says, there's no known alternative ot this.

AS IF IT MATTERED.
thestringpuller: buddy of mine who isn't into bitcoin (but is into crypto) said this: hat's why I worry about "widespread bitcoin adoption" - read that
as: banks/govs hijack
mircea_popescu: lost in all of this bathwater, any actual money to wash. the us is about
as poor
as argentina.
mircea_popescu: if only the soviets had "technological innovators" such
as these
ascii_field: when i woke up, thought that it would also be interesting if you could play '
as'... plague
ascii_field: speaking of this, i dreamed last night that i was playing a pc game called 'plague', where you are -
as printed on the crate - a fella trying to escape from plague, and score points also for containing the spread thereof in various ways
mircea_popescu: <ascii_field> the successes in the software world, few

assbot: Logged on 04-12-2015 17:17:39; mircea_popescu: afaik dumbass osen (such
as windoze) end up looking choppy because they handle the swap poorly and the windows manager ends up conflicted with some higher priority item on "memory" access
assbot: Logged on 04-12-2015 17:16:33; trinque: I read this guy
as saying it should drop everything and move the cursor
ben_vulpes: "
As part of the Affordable Care Act, the tax is intended to help fund expanded coverage for the uninsured and to contain health care spending by discouraging employers from offering overly generous benefits." << thou shalt not enjoy life
mircea_popescu: 1. miners are key points of the bitcoin infrastructure. unlike traditional infrastructure such
as the hoover dam or the pentagon, the miners do not have to be physically discernible.
OZmaster: i didnt mean
as advertisement was just so a question
pete_dushenski: OZmaster: there's not much in the way of btc miner representation amongst the regulars here.
as for alts, the folks here are more likely to short them than mine them.
mircea_popescu: afaik dumbass osen (such
as windoze) end up looking choppy because they handle the swap poorly and the windows manager ends up conflicted with some higher priority item on "memory" access
☟︎ trinque: I read this guy

☟︎ trinque:
as I understand it these preemption systems incur a great deal of additional complexity, and some wise folks might say keeping *that* to a minimum is of the greatest importance.
trinque:
as several bitcoin bitcoin businesses already do.
gabrielradio: does one need to send this from an address known
as his, so
as to prove his satisfaction of the obligation?
brg444: strongest tie I may have is with pete_dushenski
as fellow canuck
