mircea_popescu: soon enough
they unionize
themselves out of class,
then
they show up for jobs and "force"
the "evil capitalist"
to you know, hire
them
to randi zuckerberg all over
the office.
assbot: Logged on 19-11-2015 14:59:25; mircea_popescu: <DianaComan> heh, I have some coming
to me
to figure out some Maths really - about 50% run after a few lessons complaining
that it is
too hard and I'm happy with
that
mircea_popescu: so, yeah.
the herd has won
through
the age old
tactic of "we'll just stick
together". because you
thought
that unions and "collective acton" was good.

mircea_popescu: <mircea_popescu>
the only
thing i'd pay
them
to do is slit
their own
throats.
mircea_popescu: <mircea_popescu> DianaComan have you met any of
these brave young fellows populating reading ?
mircea_popescu: <lobbesbot>

mircea_popescu: <DianaComan> incidentally mircea_popescu is
that Eulora poster available in some format
that can be easily printed? guess it can't hurt
to get some copies pinned around
the uni campus here
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform elemetary i was going
to
turn down his first babble.
mircea_popescu: so
they just hire
the scum, and hope and pray. and hey, if
the customers are displeased what ever
the fuck, it's "best business practices", ie, "all
the other shops intown are hiring from
the same group of perambulating monkeys. you want
these shoes or not ?"
mircea_popescu: the simple point of fact is
that
the kids are idiots. not some of
them. all of
them.
the class arrives already
thrown, and nobody can be arsed
to put
their foot down/
mircea_popescu: so now
tell me a little more about ddos and basic bojums and whatnot.
assbot: Logged on 19-11-2015 11:05:17; jurov: i more deeply comprehended why mircea disdains "progress",it's eloquently explained
there
adlai: if satoshi cuts down an entire forest
to print out leaflets, but nobody reads
the whitepaper, did he still make sound money?
mircea_popescu: even if you're not a fan of
the foundation of rome/end of
thebes mythology, even if you don't particularly enjoy
the jewish sodomah/gomorrah stories, what do you
think would be
the stable solution here ?
assbot: Logged on 19-11-2015 11:02:11; jurov:
the civilization will just get addicted
to more and more stuff
kakobrekla: i have been using xylitol instead of
the usual sugars lately and i am still kicking
jurov: societies where wars are fought on honor instead of satisfying
the cravings don't need it, also
they scarcely need
to manage "delayed consumption" so much
jurov: adlai it's
the addiction
that enables accumulation of capital and its use in business
☟︎ adlai: i'm not sure
the
thing being fueled here is capitalism. i want
to say consumerism, but it seems more
towards consumptionism, packaged and sold
to
the consumer as consumerism
jurov: i more deeply comprehended why mircea disdains "progress",it's eloquently explained
there
☟︎ jurov: and
then invent expensive 'solutions'
to side effects
adlai: too much money,
too much sucrose... so we blaze across
the petri dish, gobbling up agar until we smack into plastic
jurov: the civilization will just get addicted
to more and more stuff
☟︎ adlai: it's a rather inevitable progression,
the only sure way
to avoid it is
to learn from
those who didn't
jurov: adlai read it. asians who ate brown rice were completely fine. until
the "invention" of white rice
adlai: ~10kya. agriculture lets
the greedy algorithm compound upon itself
jurov: basically, capitalism is fueled by sugar addiction, instead of removing sugar we "invent" cures
that can be sold - again
this is known but
to what degree and how long ago it started!
jurov: i enjoyed
the
tidbit about coca-cola being a criminal organization since 120 y ago (as decreed by US judge, it got largely ignored)
davout: sugar is eval, better switch
to cocaine amirite
jurov: tl;dr: it corrupted every civilization
that
touched it, back since crusades
BingoBoingo: So qntra's down but
there seems
to be a law enforcement crackdown on
the reddit clearnet markets. "btc is not
the future anymore it's really becoming
the only option."
https://archive.is/Mcerz mircea_popescu: must be great
to inhabit reality-free world. as alf says,
the commonplace, sane constraint of being economically +ev - isn't
there.
BingoBoingo: Ah,
that. I must have fucked up
the copypasta
BingoBoingo: So Dr. Oz did a segment about
the "dark web"
today and an image like
this was part of
the imagery describing
the dangerous stuff going on
there:
https://i.sli.mg/5mOHmZ.pngPNG Nothing about
the drug
trade, scams, hacking, killing for hire, etc.
The real reason for
the existence of
the dark web is "bullying" and fat shaming."
mircea_popescu: in some ways she reminds me of indian candy. how's life
treating ya Cristina_ ?
mircea_popescu: the cluj museum of geology's analytical balance, ftr,
to be used with
their 4.1 carat yellow diamond, is actually all mechanical. made in like, 1920.
mircea_popescu: well, seeing how
they were supposed
to deliver in 2014,
the more likely scenario is
that
this was someone's future kickstarter.
mircea_popescu: the finest
tolerance motors i know of are in
the 0.0x% range of consumption.
mircea_popescu: this notwithstanding, i did spend SOME
time in
the lab
mircea_popescu: my penis is 12 inches long, fits vaginas up
to 11.624 inches !
mircea_popescu: who
the fuck specifies one value
to
the decal and
the other
to
three decimal points ?!
mircea_popescu: "Power consumption: @full duty cycle : 45,000 Watts (all on). " wtf do
they use 40kw for loads of 50kgs max ?!
mircea_popescu: that's probably
the most effectual anti-"seo"
thing google came up with. leverage people's laziness, if it's easy for "expert"
to claim success and for empoyer
to "verify" it, everyone's happy.
mircea_popescu: there's some rock band and whatnot. i guess
there's just about 0 overlap between search results by now.
mircea_popescu: anyway fwiw i never saw
that conveyance
thingee, ever.

the interesting.
phf: these bigend wannabees got
trolled by w.gibson
mircea_popescu: come join me past
the emerald river, in
that lovely field where

than failure
phf: heh, guy spent paypal money
to start
http://osfund.co. two of
the companies were
trashed on
that chem blog, ginkgo bioworks and emerald
therapeutics.
phf: pete_dushenski, i haven't followed
the whole scene since
the
time when i had
to research
the question for a project, but it was apparently acquired by paypal in 2013. hxxp://techcrunch.com/2013/09/26/paypal-acquires-payments-gateway-braintree-for-800m-in-cash/
