mircea_popescu: down
the fucking drain of public spending,
that's where. stop spending money, it is like giving kids candy.
mircea_popescu: fucking lalaland where
the govt is spending
trillions,
the populace
turns into lazy & stupid cattle whose only aspiration is a govt college certificate for a govt "job" doing nothing and spending its
time on reddit.
then we wonder where did america go.
mircea_popescu: fucking idiots, anyway.
the only correct
thing is
to fire
the entire civil service, keep
the
thing closed for
ten years,
then
tentatively put out half a bn or so see what happens.
mircea_popescu: people, stop making stupid women.
there's enough of
them around as-is.

☟︎ ascii_field: (and certainly no public
trials or other circuses)
trinque imagines
the system freezing due
to winblowz 2022 as one pounds
the
touchscreen begging it
to
take input
ascii_field: usg knows
that f(x) == y, you get locked into an edgar-poe-esque contraption until you cough up x
ascii_field: this is precisely
the condition needed for
the coke machine
☟︎ trinque: ascii_field:
the govt is not forcing confession; it's forcing you
to
tell it
the
truth it already knows!
ascii_field: 'nobody expects
the spanish inquisition', but only a fool at
this point would not expect
the Coke Machine.
ascii_field: 'Orin Kerr, a constitutional scholar and former federal prosecutor, suggested
that
the "Fifth Amendment issues raised by
the content of
the passcode could be addressed by having
the defendants just enter in
their passcodes rather
than handing
them over
to
the government."'
☟︎ mike_c: that's going in
the
toolbox.
thanks.
punkman: mike_c: yeah you just pipe
the diff
to it
mike_c: ooh, i like

pete_dushenski: “Women are
telling us
that if
they reported pain during a study
they were
thrown out of
the study,” Dr. Zuckerman said.
pete_dushenski: ls400 was
the luxury sedan
that launched
the brand and
turned
the segment on its head, showing
that high-end cars could be built
to last, comfortable, and as boring as wallpaper paste
assbot: Logged on 05-07-2015 21:29:41; mircea_popescu: kakobrekla how about you do
this specifically : a) make assbot make an hourly report with prices and volumes for each
traded commodity ; b) make assbot spot a line
trade for each
time
trade in a commodity goes > 100 btc ; c) make assbot keep a wallet for every person in l2 ; d) allow me
to order buys and sells on bit4x via assbot, just gives me a hash
to unpack like rating works now.
kakobrekla: or
the quote on eurusd for
that matter.
kakobrekla: do you
think my users define
the price of aapl stock?
pete_dushenski: just publishing
trades above X value doesn't make sense ?
thestringpuller: pete_dushenski: gigavps was known for
the perpetual mining bond on GLBSE gigabond or whatever. MP recently declassified some logs from him way back when proving it was a ponzi all along.
pete_dushenski: kakobrekla: larger
trades a la 'bigbitbets' would be neat
kakobrekla: there 10+
ticks per second, jiggabytes of garbage nobody
that isnt
trading wants
to see
pete_dushenski: that's a very vague statement. a garage full of asics could be an 'operation' and it could be in YOUR basement and
therefore about as
trustworthy as
they come
pete_dushenski: plus, what do you look for in a 'mining operation'
that would make it 'trustworthy' ?
thestringpuller: just noticed
there has never been a single
truly
trustworthy mining operation
to date.
assbot: Logged on 05-07-2015 17:25:22; kakobrekla: dunno if anyone particularity cares here, but you can now
trade commodities (oil, food..), indices (SP500, DOW...) and bezzlestocks (apple, google..) with bitcoin on bit4x

funkenstein_: "Linguistic studies have shown
that roughly
two
thirds of
the words in Papiamentu's present vocabulary are of Iberian origin, a quarter are of Dutch origin,and some of Native American origin and
the rest come from other
tongues."
mircea_popescu: who knew unemployment is
the
true fear of
the libertard.
mircea_popescu: ahahaha o god
the bitpay
thing has done such an irony
twist on buttcoin
mircea_popescu: "Ah
the old "got what
they deserved" and "should have known better" racket.
That applies
to dumbass butter cultists but not
the normal people who need jobs and happen
to land at
this company. "

mircea_popescu: did i fundamentally misunderstand what
the promotional lie was supposed
to be ?
mircea_popescu: but coming back
to
the issue, isn't "ethereum
the webthreezeroeum
technologee" supposed
to have scripted contracts or something
to be
the future of future moneys ?
mircea_popescu: these freaks really
think everything's worth money don't
they.
mircea_popescu: "Wait. So someone purchased etherwallet.org (a premium domain name worth a not
trivial amount of money most likely), put
the work into creating an actual functional wallet with a pretty decent design, spent weeks promoting it, and for what? $1400? What is
this? Kindergarten?"
punkman: "Running
the code locally is better, but I
think even
the github code could be updated
to leak keys
to an external server. Wouldn't we need audited milestones with crc checks
to be secure?"
mircea_popescu: o noes, look at
that, eth is not a coin
to
trade but a
technology ever closer
to 3
punkman: yeah just a sample of what

punkman: oh he's all over
the social media in US/UK, even Obama mentioned him. at least as long as he stays in Ghana.
mircea_popescu: they got social media
to "share ideas and stuff" just as long as
those ideas are you know, easy, self flattering and funny.
