mircea_popescu hey thanks :) came mostly to keep an eye on the conversation here, I enjoy your website.
trinque:
mircea_popescu: I remember you talking about whether Stalins rust; I understand him to have succumbed to a great deal of paranoia about underlings coming after him
trinque:
mircea_popescu: is this the classic paranoia that the underlings are all out to get the leadership, as manifested in tech?
BingoBoingo: <
mircea_popescu> whereas an ozarks duchy seems improbable on the face. << A singular Ozark Dutchy yes, but a collection of Ozark hamlets that in confederation raids Kansas with some regularity is possible
trinque:
mircea_popescu | that place where you hear things that then restructure your perception. << I went to a shitty public institution, found it a waste of my time, departed early. I would've loved to experience such a place, glad I stumbled in here.
BingoBoingo:
mircea_popescu: My personal interpretation of the filing is that Preet want the record to reflect objecting to Andreas, while not successfull preventing the zombie's testimony.
BingoBoingo:
mircea_popescu: I was mostly interested in linking the zombie's name to the NeoBee thing yet again. There's little left in the Ulbricht case capable of being interesting until appeals are filed.

mircea_popescu: 'cum se suge pula' << can't help but associate this in my head with the finnish proverb, 'Pillu se on pulullakin'
☟︎ BingoBoingo:
mircea_popescu: Either a British Officer/Administrator who fought America in 1812 or the lead singer of Modest Mouse
PeterL:
mircea_popescu:a federation, like the us ? << nominally US is a federation, but between the FedGov usurping power from the states, free movement of people between the states, and the mass-produced commercialized 'culture', the US is pretty homogenous; we think of ourselfs as USians rather than $myState-ians.
cazalla:
mircea_popescu, take a guess!
cazalla: <
mircea_popescu> cazalla nice month yo. <<< hopefully february will dwarf it
ben_vulpes:
mircea_popescu: no way. it respondes to ./bitcoind -datadir=. -port=... -rpcport=... stop, but not to kill $BITCOIND_PID
decimation:
mircea_popescu: for 'well qualified' folks in 'conventional' mortgages, you can get 3.5% for 30 years!
pete_dushenski:
mircea_popescu: i'm guessing that they go to special schools
BingoBoingo:
mircea_popescu: I think it was some sort of Pro-Brewster agitprop
BingoBoingo:
mircea_popescu: I think he was if my memory works, but... confirming involves wading way deep into the bitcointalk altcoin section
punkman:
mircea_popescu: going by log height #590953 to #1001132 (now), it's a lot of time

mircea_popescu: phillipsjk: The captures are 5.0GB each. Just a little too large to fit on a DVD:P << last time we diagnosed this it was mostly unpnp pwnt routers that yielded it.
mats:
mircea_popescu: would you consider records and other business documents (e.g. tax filings) within the scope of the courts-circus parameters?
BingoBoingo:
mircea_popescu: Well, that just makes him a shoulder
teward:

mircea_popescu: bitcoin op, perhaps, not freenode staffer :)
cazalla:
mircea_popescu, what i don't get is that on reddit, you see the idea of a paywall and microtransactions always discussed as bitcoin's killer app and yet when they come across it being implemented, they cry scam

mircea_popescu, BingoBoingo :)
cjc:
mircea_popescu, I did not apparently catch the news with regard to NSA infiltration.
cjc:
mircea_popescu, The node I connect to in Chicago has been down inconveniently quite a bit in 2014, morgan.freenode.net. My observation of #freenode staffer availability in the past two months has been it is hit or miss for new users requesting cloaks and such.
BingoBoingo: <
mircea_popescu> BingoBoingo that is actually the theory i've "come up with" myself. << I've accepted that the American conditioning to remove all the flavors if it isn't explicitly done to cultivate stupid, continues with stupid accepted as a positive side effect.
cjc:
mircea_popescu, thank you :)
BingoBoingo: <
mircea_popescu> BingoBoingo you know it's tenis not penis. << Ah, phonics gets me again

mircea_popescu, twice i believe
jurov: midnightmagic:
mircea_popescu: i don't see the bash as place to put mollification statements, they need to be funnier. it's in the log already, just have the url handy at all times
pete_dushenski:
mircea_popescu: that's a point i suppose. but "stupid people" are subject to the same
BingoBoingo: <
mircea_popescu> lmao this is the eve online "protection" scam irl ?! by teenagers with about the same linguistic ability ? << wHERE?

mircea_popescu: something simple like, "whenever a parentless block is handed over the retaining of which would cause memory pool for holding parentless blocks to be overrun, a) drop the handed block ; b) close the connection and ban that peer for half hour ; c) discard all chains of parentless blocks longer than six items ; d) connect again"

davout:
mircea_popescu: yeah well, if honest cartels don't make it we can only hope about "maybe assurance contracts, maybe bonded identies tied to transaction fees"
trinque:
mircea_popescu: doesn't what someone is paid quantify it ultimately anyway?
BingoBoingo: <
mircea_popescu> BingoBoingo yeah, you're right. qntra was a bold step into the darkness, perhaps too bold. trying it with coding is taking a bold ~train trip~ into the wilderness. << Well with Qntra and prose having editorial controls helps to level the problem. I can not imagine a similar arbiter existing for code.
BingoBoingo: <
mircea_popescu> with something private like you know, coding work, this may prove unfeasible. << Also as unequally as prose may be weighted, code is especially unequal when it comes to volume versus value.
cazalla:
mircea_popescu: cazalla: well that was short lived.. "you have been banned from posting to /r/Buttcoin" << what sort of low quality shilling have you been engaging in! <<< i criticised the jews :\

mircea_popescu: oh certainly!
BingoBoingo: <
