the “naming, shaming and jailing” of criminals all over Ghana – yet few people would be able
to pick him out of a crowd."
shinohai: i have one of
those light switches w/ android
mircea_popescu: "1965 hey look at
this,
they make houses out plastic now / 1985 bleh, my house is made out of plastic / 2005 i wish i could get a house not made of plastic"
assbot: Logged on 25-09-2015 07:02:45; punkman: 2005: look at
this, I can get my
toaster
to run Linux! / 2015: bleh, my
toaster runs Linux / 2025: I wish I could get a
toaster without Linux
mircea_popescu: if
there weren't a pile of
these "we"s running around, people^H^H^H^H reddit wouldn't be puzzling in
the land of
the lost "omaigawd bitcoinxt" etc.
mircea_popescu: "we" don't need random derp on youtubue
to rehash what mp says a year-two later forgetting
to mention
the source. not because mp gives a shit, but because
the sort of "we"
that actually end up
thinking
their plastics are "made in
the usa" generally get raped and can't figure out why.
mircea_popescu: to get
to
the point : it is not a valuable service
to
try and interpose oneself in front of actual power and pretend relationship. nor could it ever be. nor is it a sane or useful "strategy", nor does it ever work worth a shit.
assbot: Logged on 25-09-2015 04:36:30; brg444: cazalla, well he's wrong on a couple of
things but I
think it is a valuable service
to remind everyone of why Bitcoin is
there and how much money was wasted
targeting broken business plans
mircea_popescu: dude
the notion
that someone has a currency named "ringgit"... give 'em a carrot already an' pat
their ears back,
too fucking cute.
shinohai: BitPay has reduced
the size of its staff in an effort
to recoup losses due
to inept management
that lead
to hax.
shinohai: 'tis hilarious
though, a righteous lampoon.
cazalla: shinohai, she gives
the subtle
troll away at 1:01
punkman: "Anas Aremeyaw Anas is known for, as he calls it,
the “naming, shaming and jailing” of criminals all over Ghana – yet few people would be able
to pick him out of a crowd."
☟︎ cazalla: been
that way for a while punkman, half
the reason i never made money while i slept!
punkman: hah "Heard often on fed P25 radio in Philly
today: "Turn your encryption off. I can't hear you""
punkman: "People finding xss in sites and contacting
them
to see if
they have bounties are
the equiv of homeless people washing your dirty windshield"
cazalla: that is
the second
time
today i've seen manuls
assbot: Logged on 25-09-2015 02:29:07; mircea_popescu: !rate crescendo -1 Aka Eric Martindale. Nice job
trying
to sell me/MPEx bitpay shares a week before information was
to come out
that'd render
them worthless. Say hello
to Daphna for me.
punkman: you got a point
there, but perhaps
the movement always exists, a counterweight
to "progress"
fluffypony: no I know, I'm just saying
that
the "I wish I could get a
toaster without Linux" movement has already started :-P
fluffypony: punkman:
the "retro" crap has already started, have you seen
that Casio calculator
that was released?
punkman: 2005: look at
this, I can get my
toaster
to run Linux! / 2015: bleh, my
toaster runs Linux / 2025: I wish I could get a
toaster without Linux
☟︎ cazalla: ;;later
tell brg444 when i said
this podcast, i meant his podcast, not
that specific one you linked
to on jewtube
brg444: anyways,
thought
there was some interesting nuggets in
there (switzerland exchange and
the little bit about how Venezuelans using BTC
to escape capital control)
brg444: (although it does look funny in
the light now considering he's an investor in Bitpay)
brg444: cazalla, well he's wrong on a couple of
things but I
think it is a valuable service
to remind everyone of why Bitcoin is
there and how much money was wasted
targeting broken business plans
☟︎ mod6: asciilifeform: ok, done
this now. created 'test-release.vpatch' which has incoming edges from all current leaves;
this was a decent
test for my code
too.
cazalla: brg444, i listened
to
this podcast a little but it seemed
to be not much more
than an avenue
to market whatever junk he has invested ein
brg444: about
that, of course "there is nothing new in
this world" but I
thought
this part was particularly lulzy : dude was having lunch with
the power rangers (adam back, gmaxwell & gavin) and asked "why do we hire Bitcoin"
to which Back & Maxwell replied "monetary sovereignty" and Gavin "because I feel warm and fuzzy when I make a payment".. smh
brg444: judging by
the way he was going in on
the lad likely
the smell he refers
to is Gavin :D
brg444: (obviously
that would likely not include MPEX)
brg444: says
there is supposedly a BTC exchange in Switzerland moving more BTC
than all exchanges combined but staying on
the low because of FATCA
BingoBoingo: !up brg444 You need
the key
to up yourself
BingoBoingo: Ah, just
the orderbook looks like it moved
mircea_popescu: it doesn't show up if it doesn't
trade within
the mointh.
assbot: I
thought I
told you not
to
touch me.
assbot: Good morning, may you serve
the Lord, and may His holy dominion guide you
through your dismal life.
BingoBoingo: Just seems
to be stuck in
this range of prices
gribble: (ticker [--bid|--ask|--last|--high|--low|--avg|--vol] [--currency XXX] [--market <market>|all]) -- Return pretty-printed
ticker. Default market is Bitfinex. If one of
the result options is given, returns only
that numeric result (useful for nesting in calculations). If '--currency XXX' option is given, returns
ticker for
that
three-letter currency code. It is up
to you
to make sure (1 more message)
mircea_popescu: a) shouldn't have got fat ; b) when
the other sluts went
to
the
twerking class, you should have been
there already.

midnightmagic: mircea_popescu: Do you mind me asking how long ago he
tried
to sell
those?
mircea_popescu: "the lower price actually helps
to more evenly distribute ETH."
mircea_popescu: it's like... at some point it's gonna be easier
to specify which you're not pulling in.

cazalla: asciilifeform, i'd say someone slipped it past
the editor and it will later be removed
assbot: Logged on 25-09-2015 02:33:13; mircea_popescu: check it out,
they learned how
to link !
mircea_popescu: in other news,
the "strategic superiority rehash"
thing is like
the most read
trilema article. i don't
think
this ever happened before for a day old item.
mircea_popescu: let
them fucking explain where
the words went, what do you care.
cazalla: mircea_popescu, pdf reads better as it is clear where
the blackouts are (everywhere), perhaps i should've
taken screencaps instead

☟︎ mircea_popescu: and
this doesn't mean, pick up your hair artist best friend and promote him.
mircea_popescu: With
total accumulated investment reaching $32.7M, BitPay has now raised more venture funding
than any other bitcoin startup. <<
this is drastically false.
mircea_popescu: anyway. all
the derps
that wanna say
things about how a non-bitcoin company's management reflects poorly on anything but
the well known, amply documented and oft discussed ineptitude of
the VC circus : feel free
to suck a cock.
mircea_popescu: sciencehatesyouSorry for your loss 2 points 58 minutes ago
This is sad, and it's just a shitpost from Mircea
the Rapist's QNTRA << check it out, sciencehatesme.
mod6: appreciate
the input here, im gonna ponder
this for a bit.
mircea_popescu: Pierre_Rochard yes,
there are some passible webdevs in argentina.
mod6: am I understanding
that correctly?
mod6: ok so. release vpatch would be creating a new vertex
that has edges coming from
the current leafs.
