gernika: And
this is actually ok because
the contents of
their devices is *worthless*.
pete_dushenski: and in still other news, "Apple has published a workaround after some iPhone and iPad users were left stranded in
the middle of
the iOS 9 update process.
The Cupertino giant has acknowledged multiple complaints
that devices were unable
to progress past
the "Slide
to Upgrade" screen when moving
to
the latest version of iOS. Apple's remedy: wipe your device and hope you made a backup."
pete_dushenski: "AMD's
top microprocessor architect Jim Keller has walked from
the chip vendor, just months after
the company unveiled a shift in strategy
to reinvest in high-end FX CPUs. Keller quit on Friday, having returned
to AMD in 2012 after most recently working at Apple."

to rot your brain. even socialists agree.
☟︎ pete_dushenski: it's like
trying
to read straight
torah right out of
the scrolls without ever having seen a layperson's
text
that distinguishing 'bet' from 'vet'
assbot: Logged on 10-09-2015 02:07:13; mircea_popescu: hm you know i
think you're right,
this is an older
thing
assbot: Logged on 17-09-2015 00:37:40; asciilifeform: over, for
the
time being. zoolag @ 173.73.235.152:8333.
davout: jurov: is mpex dead for you
too? (empty stats)
funkenstein_: Them footnotes made me
think for a moment
Ted Nelson's vision is finally springing
to life :)
davout: VariaVarietatis:
to me it's just a confusing way of saying exactly
the same
thing
VariaVarietatis: but discount comes from owning it after
the money is already in.
VariaVarietatis: davout:
think got it. was getting mixed up
thinking only 800k went in
davout: VariaVarietatis: when it's said peter owns 20% of
the million after
the deal, he owns it indirectly
through richard's company
that owns 1mn, he now owns 20% of
mircea_popescu: so he paid 1mn for 20% of fish + 20% of million. so he paid in
the end 800k for 20% of fish, so he got fish at 1mn with 20% discount.
mircea_popescu: dude. richard has a fish. peter has a million.
they make a deal, now peter has 20% of (fish+million).
VariaVarietatis: mircea_popescu: so
the company only gets 20% of
the 1mn, what about
the other 80% where does
that come in?
kakobrekla: which one is
that, does it have a name?
VariaVarietatis: mircea_popescu: so he gets 200k cash 800k goes into
the company account richard gets 80% peter gets 20% going from PP1
to PP2 here? also how does
the note part work I
thought notes didn't get converted into equity until
the company investors or is he filling his own note? still lost.
mircea_popescu: kakobrekla but
there's also my unnamed one as well as bucephalus or w/e
the recent one got called.
mircea_popescu: he doesn't
trade 1mn for 20% of richard's company. he
trades 1mn for 20% of richard's company and 20% of 1mn.
mircea_popescu: anyway, 20% discount because he gets
to own 20% of
the million he brought himself, as well as of richard's company.
VariaVarietatis: mircea_popescu: I got a question about one of
the footnotes in
that article vi if peter is
trading away 80% of his company
to Richard for 1m at a 5m valuation?(number she used) but selling it at a 20% discount does
that mean
the
term value is 4m and
the valuation is 5m how does
that work?
kakobrekla: i lost
track of node, are dulap, zoolag and incitatus still in game?
assbot: Logged on 21-09-2015 09:01:16; punkman: "There is an accusation
that current British Prime minister David Cameron 'put his genitals in
the mouth of a dead pig' in a frat style initiation ceremony.
The book was co-written by one of his former colleagues and one of
the biggest donors
to Cameron's political party."
mircea_popescu: it now occurs
to me
this is maybe not even coincidental.
punkman: could be some kind of spamtweet exchange
too.
tweet shit, get credits, spend em on other
tweets
mircea_popescu idly hoovered over
the faces, saw various VC minded folks, didn't realise retweets are a different rubric.
cazalla: i get
the impression charlie lee and bobby lee are brothers in
the sense some white american couple bought
them from an orphanage or something
danielpbarron: speaking of social media, allow me
the first
to mention
that #BaeOfPigs is a
thing, and probably
the best hashtag ever conceived
mircea_popescu: because new chick on
the block (social media expert in civil life) insisted
to make a bunch of
those shits YESTERDAY
shinohai: How have I been here ~6 moths and never found
the
trilema
twitter account.
mircea_popescu: you know who else liked it a lot ?
twitter, apaprently!
jurov: or it's waiting on mircea
too?
davout: also pls
to x.eur, we're
the 21st...
davout: mircea_popescu: liked
the "You know what gets no airplay ? Unflattering
truth." a lot
mircea_popescu: shinohai not bad but wrong proportion. i need landscape
that's portrait.
davout: every single
time I
think reddit has hit
the bottom, it out-stupids itself
mircea_popescu: how about banks start experimenting with fitting my cock up
their uvula.
davout: "if we don't have a plausible scaling story soon, banks are going
to start experimenting with permissioned blockchains."
shinohai will attempt
to find women
that aren't sjw's and insane on deviantart
mircea_popescu: anyway, i don't really want line art. i want stuff more like
that yeah
mircea_popescu: but i'd rather give some guy a chance
to strike a conversation with deeply disturbed 16 yo girls first.
shinohai: I'll
trawl some and see what I find.
That artist
that drew your bitcoin collage can't draw "death" ?
mircea_popescu: if i like em, ask
the author if he'd like
to have it featured in game, bring him over here, he gets some btc dust, all is well.
mircea_popescu: specifically : i need a large drawing
to illustrate "death" in eulora.
the job is
to
trawl
the entire fucking site until you find GOOD, gothy-like drawings of at least 2k px wide, and show
them
to me
assbot: You rated user Anduck on 22-Dec-2014, with a rating of -5, and supplied
these additional notes: idiot. does not understand how bitcoin works..
mircea_popescu: hm, anyone with a bunch of
time on his hands wanna do some social media work for me ?
cazalla: "SABR monitors multiple blockchains
to identify and locate criminal activity."
shinohai: sabr.io is
that new venture
that promises
to help LE
track down bitcoin criminals.
mircea_popescu: im
trying
to
think what'd be more irrelevant
to bitcoin
than "bitlicense".
shinohai: Or "Congrats, you passed! Here's some VC monies
to get started."
cazalla: half expected
to get some CPA offer at
the end of
that quiz shinohai
shinohai: 21 friggin scripts just
to view an article. Fuck you coindesk.
mircea_popescu: except
those schmucks don't have friends in
the printer house.
mircea_popescu: the irony being
that all
this is EXACTLY like silicon valley vc / generally vc.
cazalla: Invested:0.17 BTC.. almost like scammers
trying
to out-invest fellow scammers but get scammed
themselves
punkman: "How many investments did auto-invest make for you?" "About 30 on BTCJam. I'm hoping
to
turn
the loss into profit with
the Law of Big Numbers
though I'm not optimistic."
