to be around someone
that always projects negativity. But isn't
there something
to be said for honesty?
assbot: Logged on 07-09-2015 00:41:34; mircea_popescu: either don't be stupid, if you can, or if you can't,
then don't be negative. sorcerers in
the celestial city. zombies in
the zombie horde.
assbot: Logged on 07-09-2015 00:33:26; mircea_popescu: on
the plus side, you won't have any actual work
to do,
that sort where you could encounter and might have
to overcome your own stupidity and general human limitations.

the misdirection and denial work Peter Gutmann pgut001@cs.auckland.ac.nz sinks into

assbot: Logged on 06-09-2015 23:07:59; mircea_popescu: i dunno. oddly
the stan brood never
talks.
assbot: Logged on 06-09-2015 22:31:55; pete_dushenski: ;;later
tell asciilifeform also, 'order id 22472' would indicate
that you have more available btc
than rothschilds. who's poor now ? (and yes, i understand
that no one will ever actually offer you 'taig' via -otc)
assbot: Logged on 06-09-2015 22:31:46; mircea_popescu: incidentally /me hates
that
trait more
than any other.
assbot: Logged on 06-09-2015 22:22:48; pete_dushenski: asciilifeform: unless you already have dark market connex, you might have
to wait for mircea_popescu/trinque's new buy/sell board ;)
assbot: Logged on 06-09-2015 22:22:10; mats: in fact i
think alf does?
assbot: Logged on 06-09-2015 21:18:13; anton_osika: So long.
Thanks for
the voice until I can become friends with phunctor.

pete_dushenski: "Eugenie Bouchard has pulled out of
the US Open with a concussion.
TSN has learned
that Bouchard sustained
the injury on Friday night when she
tripped while walking from
the
training room
to room where
the ice bath is located." << go canada ;/

pete_dushenski: the equivalent being jurov
telling qntra
to put up a paywall because "make more skrillz!"
pete_dushenski: shinohai: sure, but i didn't see jurov seeking advice here. maybe i missed
this in
the logs ?
shinohai: I may be
totally wrong, but I
think it is foolhardy *not*
to seek advice and varied viewpoints.
pete_dushenski: dunno where BingoBoingo gets
the idea
that he's jurov's business development advisor now
assbot: Logged on 07-09-2015 00:13:24; jurov: and
the % .. maaybe someday
mircea_popescu: all
this derpage
to assuage
the fears and
terrors of
the 14yo mind already... it's kinda sad.
mircea_popescu: so you know, if his product sucks
tell him in such a way
that it doesn't come out you're better
than him, and he won't
think you were "being negative"
mircea_popescu: negative reinforcement is what your superiors do, and
they can't have any.
mircea_popescu: that's not even
the main point.
the main point is
that
they abhor hierarchy, and want
the world
to be flat.
shinohai: If someone
tells me my product sucks, and it genuinely sucks, perhaps I can use
that feedback
to not suck.
shinohai: No one wants
to be around someone
that always projects negativity. But isn't
there something
to be said for honesty?
☟︎ mircea_popescu: either don't be stupid, if you can, or if you can't,
then don't be negative. sorcerers in
the celestial city. zombies in
the zombie horde.
☟︎ mircea_popescu: but
to be fair : i also won't hire
them if
they've been stupid online.
shinohai: I'd last about a week before I burnt
the place down.
shinohai: Ironically mircea_popescu,
the hashbang guys wanted me
to come
to San Fran and work lol
mircea_popescu: on
the minus side, if you can do it for a year and not want
to kill yourself every night, you'll know you're dumb. not even "not smart". outright dumb.
mircea_popescu: on
the plus side, you won't have any actual work
to do,
that sort where you could encounter and might have
to overcome your own stupidity and general human limitations.
☟︎ mircea_popescu: hiring in
the
traditional sense has no bearing on all
this. it's "hiring", as in, usg "hires" you
to lap up
the welfare faucet drippings.
mircea_popescu: however if you want
the best of
the best cafeteria food -
that's level
two! be positive online, move
to san francisco!
mircea_popescu: <shinohai> What kind of poppycock is
that? Won't hire me if I have been negative online. << it's not hiring as much as living wage layer
two. do you want
to be like
the niggers, getting free pills and welfare checks ?
that's living wage layer zero. move
to
the ghetto. are you instead happy with
the minimum wage,
tax rebates, etc bullshit ?
that's layer one, move
to suburbia.
☟︎☟︎ jurov: and
the % .. maaybe someday
☟︎ jurov: monthly/withdrawal fees already cause enough friction, pple made
themselves heard
shinohai: One day when I actually have btc I need someone
to show me
the ropes on coinbr
mats: well, if its any consolation,
there's a btc for your
troubles when coinbr is up, i know you do a lot of pro bono work around here
jurov: sometime during
the recent lull
jurov: not just
that, mpex added a misfeature of randomly rejecting orders
mats: i guess it worked because i was
the only one with any volume for
the longest
time
jurov: and
trade between
themselves :)
jurov: and at
the same price
mats: is it because multiple customers put orders in at
the same
time?
jurov: that kind of bug one wonders how
the whole
thing worked at all
jurov: coinbr progress report:
there's light in
the end of
tunnel, analysis of last
two mixed up orders left
shinohai: I'd like a browser
that doesn't break every
time it updates every 3 days
punkman: well yeah
they had important "Features"
to work on first
punkman: "According
to
the FAQ, a
total of 185 secret bugs leaked. Of
those, Mozilla categorizes 53 as "severe vulnerabilities."
The oldest of
those went unpatched for 335 or more days"
shinohai: What kind of poppycock is
that? Won't hire me if I have been negative online.

☟︎ pete_dushenski: nothing irks me quite like holier-than-thou bellboys
though, once had one in nyc who flat-out rejected $2. "not enough". because 0>2 in his fucking sandfilled head
pete_dushenski: i'm pretty sure
there are even 20-25-30 ones about, which is lunacy on a stick
pete_dushenski: to
the point where i've seen credit card and debit card
terminals
that ask if you want
to
tip one of
three pre-selected amounts : 15%, 20%, or 25%.
punkman: you do a good job, or maybe your ass looked good, or I just felt like it, you get a
tip
pete_dushenski: the kitchen always gets a cut, so a server might only see 3-4% of a 10%
tip, so she won't be
too pleased
pete_dushenski: though here, 'tip splitting' is
the de facto food insdustry standard
