this 'irrespective of
their cognitive abilities' nonsense ? as if everyone in
the world were equally stupid, and
therefore equally intelligent, and
therefore had equal rights and so on and so forth ?
assbot: Logged on 14-10-2015 22:10:00; brg444: veteran scammer Halsey Minor sells 5000 BTC worth of IOUs into his fiat bank,

mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo i suppose
they could bid for a eulora copper merchant position like anyone else.
ben_vulpes: it's just
the wwe yearly belt competition
ben_vulpes: obama doesn't actually have
the mandate
to negotiate; subtle fact of us presidency
that most outsiders (and usians) miss.
☟︎ pete_dushenski: might as well get it over with, burn
the mess down already. but no,
too stupid.
too much 'hope'.
pete_dushenski: likewise, obama is smarter
than your average nignog, but he can't negotiate himself out of a paper bag, much less prevent his 'country' from spiralling from despondency on downwards. in fact, if he were smarter, he'd be accelerating
the process at every opportunity. instead, he just drags his dumb heels in
the sand his father was born in.
pete_dushenski: yes,
tlp is a smart dude, but no, he couldn't wrap his head around
the concept of independence.
pete_dushenski: while pretty much everyone is stupid is ~some~ ways,
this doesn't imply
that
there aren't vast disparities between
the shades of gray.
pete_dushenski: wtf is
this 'irrespective of
their cognitive abilities' nonsense ? as if everyone in
the world were equally stupid, and
therefore equally intelligent, and
therefore had equal rights and so on and so forth ?
☟︎ pete_dushenski: while i could
think of worse and less hilarious
topics for one's phd...
pete_dushenski: "The relationship of intelligence and intelligent behavior has been
the
topic of recent debates, yet understanding why we call certain actions stupid irrespective of
their cognitive abilities requires
the understanding of what people mean when
they call an action stupid.
To study
these questions empirically, we analyzed real-life examples where people called an action stupid."
brg444: I've lost
track of
time but it seems
this one inning has been going on for
the last hour
pete_dushenski: Frank
Thomas @TheBigHurt_35
This is
the craziest inning of baseball I've ever seen!! <<
brg444: people in
toronto going nuts
pete_dushenski: baseball update: so weird rangers run counted. jays look
to come back in bottom of 7th, bases loaded, 1 out.
brg444: that speaks
to why he was so great
though: dude had such an ego he
thought
there was nothing he couldn't do.
brg444: it's a shame he's such a doofus
though. mentality he is amateur at best. doesn't understand how
to be great
brg444: yep. was unheard of. kid was probably pulling more ratings on ESPN
then
this baseball game on now as a senior.
pete_dushenski: brg444 i remember watching him for
the first
time, while in a hotel room in mexico as it happens, during his senior year (of high school!) in
the slam dunk competition. he was simply monumental. and i remember saying "watch out for
this kid" without really knowing jack shit about pro bball
brg444: lebron
the most impressive specimen I've seen
brg444: i get
the same feelings watching Odell Beckham launch 45 inches in
the hair grabbing footballs one handed during pre-game
BingoBoingo: There was probably juice around
then
too, I mean Jose Canseco.
Thomas
though was a genetic freak.
BingoBoingo: Frank
Thomas was with
the OK Chicago
team.
pete_dushenski: now ~that~ man could hit a ball, pre-juice
too (or before widespread use at least)
pete_dushenski: ahh chicago. i remember
the days of frank
thomas like
they were yesterday.
BingoBoingo: The card's elimination from
the playoff wouldn't be so bad if it came at
the hands of any
team other
than Shitcago
pete_dushenski: that's it. not
the olympics, not
the 'world' series, nothing else. football.
pete_dushenski: @GreggZaun:
Try
to keep it classy
Toronto.
The WORLD is watching << bahaha. shut
the fuck up zaun. you're a has-been and your little world and everyone you know doth not make up any ~useful~ fraction of
the world extant. but whatever, enjoy your
time in
the sun, however brief it may be.
BingoBoingo: Tre Mason can eat a dick
though. Wasn't for
that asshole Mizzou would have had an SEC Championship.
brg444: BingoBoingo about STL sports
team, Gurley is entertaining
brg444: appeared
to have called
the play off
then awarded
the point on review. now checking out
the replay, again.
brg444: refs made a
terrible call on awarding a free run
to
the plate on a botched pitch back
to
the pitcher
brg444: people
throwing beers on
the field and stuff
assbot: Logged on 14-10-2015 21:56:25; Duffer1: g2a is
the sketchiest bullshit
pete_dushenski: see, without good ol' deedbot- i'd have forgotten entirely about
that eth bet.
pete_dushenski: "here you are officer, i
think you'll find
this correspondance regarding
the weather in peru
to be in order"
pete_dushenski: actually, if i were goldman, i'd use 'symphony chat' for 'clean
tawk' and pgp for 'dirty
tawk'.
pete_dushenski: how in
the fuck did
the nydfs even manage
to negotiate
this ?
pete_dushenski: if you're just going
to hand
the unencrypted emails over
the second
the nydfs comes aknockin'
pete_dushenski: "The four banks will store duplicate copies of
the decryption keys for
their messages with independent custodians (i.e., custodians not controlled by
the banks)."
brg444: what
the fuck does
that even mean
brg444: "22% of
the world's publicly
traded bitcoin has been
transacted on our platform in less
than 11 months"
brg444: Minor,
too, predicts
that bitcoin as a currency “will get destroyed.” He likens
the coin’s current market cap—about $3.7 billion—to “an accounting mistake or rounding error
that Bank of America makes.”
brg444: veteran scammer Halsey Minor sells 5000 BTC worth of IOUs into his fiat bank,
today claims one of "Bitcoin's biggest company"
☟︎ brg444: my bad
the recent one, would be bitreserve/uphold

assbot: Logged on 14-10-2015 00:23:57; mircea_popescu:
this is exactly what it sounds like : oil is a mix of carbohydrates, you sort
this by mass and cut it into slices.
shinohai: Jeezus mircea_popescu you weren't kidding about
the eulora wiki.
trinque: ship shinohai out on
the barge
shinohai: I can't offer any such help as I
too am under
the
thumb of
the SS.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform you can
touch it just as soon as you get out of nazi state.
mircea_popescu: im still hopeful might manage
to get a colo'd box
there.
gribble: naphex was last seen in #bitcoin-assets 5 days, 10 hours, 24 minutes, and 35 seconds ago: <Naphex> mircea_popescu: yep; i'm waiting for a mail from him should come later on
today
shinohai: keep forgetting
to rejoin #eulora, never added
to autojoin
mircea_popescu: the entire fucking point nsa even sponsored his nonsense is
that it might perhaps prevent
this manner of looking on asym crypto.
phf: and
then
there's always bitcoind source, which is infinite rabbit hole. i'm studying
the source by rewriting chunks in cl, and
the more i learn,
the more i know i don't know
mircea_popescu: shinohai A LOT of
that is needed on
teh eulora wiki, at
that.
shinohai: If help is still needed cleaning or writing some crap for
the wiki I may can help.
