mircea_popescu: xm2hi> yeah, and about the ecosystem that Mircea has created. impressive records. << - >> ascii_field> << there will be maxint of these now won't there.
adlai must admit that before reading this latest article, he wasn't sure which party kasich celebrates; and that is still the case
punkman: seems like S.MPOE holders didn't like the bbet announcement
nubbins`: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=13-03-2016#1431596 << i can't imagine any good-faith receiver honouring these terms, no. ☝︎
ascii_field: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=13-03-2016#1431776 << there will be maxint of these now won't there. ☝︎
BingoBoingo: !t m s.bbet
mircea_popescu: well, it gotta produce monthly statements. currently we can't do that. mpex wasn't historically very strict with this, but it certainly won't last forever.
mircea_popescu: i don't specifically care. as long as the person seems competent... hey.
ascii_field: doesn't this permawedge?
mircea_popescu: well who asks me anything ? i won't like it, but...
mircea_popescu: but let's not talk of things being moot and sad stuff like that. instead : bitbet isn't actually missing any bettor funds, the whole receiver thing could be done in a week.
pete_dushenski: ben_vulpes: i'd open a perimutuel bet that nassim who play receiver, but i don't trust betmoooose
ben_vulpes: elementary questions like "wtf -- paid twice?!" are dismissed with "you just don't understand how bitcoin works".
assbot: Logged on 13-03-2016 20:51:27; mircea_popescu: anyway, to be perfectly clear, i don't think kakobrekla did anything wrong at any juncture, nor am i privately holding anything against the man. while the outcome is miserable, i dun think there's necessarily much that could have been done to prevent it.
pete_dushenski: then don't get hit !
pete_dushenski: this obviously couldn't strictly be true, but was a more of philosophical consideration to my mind
mircea_popescu: anyway, to be perfectly clear, i don't think kakobrekla did anything wrong at any juncture, nor am i privately holding anything against the man. while the outcome is miserable, i dun think there's necessarily much that could have been done to prevent it. ☟︎
mircea_popescu: and in spite of being uncharacteristically verbose for a human being... apparently i don't write everything either.
mircea_popescu: i invent things by degrees and i can't always and on the button answer as to the logic of things. they go in a context. i know for a fact the arrangement make sense in 2012, but entirely hazy as to the reasoning.
mircea_popescu: so then no, mp isn't learning any ada. if mp wanted to learn ada, he would have.
ascii_field: i didn't think so.
ascii_field: jurov: in usaschwitz, it is enough to be sued, to be driven into penury immediately, you don't even need to lose.
fluffypony: well you can build iOS apps on just about everything, so you can't get away from that
BingoBoingo: <mircea_popescu> BingoBoingo i have nfi what's going on with those two articles. they don't even make sense. << I'll get to cutting
ben_vulpes sings https://youtu.be/4N7VK7vHwnw?t=37
mircea_popescu: they apparently didn't realise this going in. no ai in pr, yet.
mircea_popescu: but as a sidepoint, this "style" thing is a lot like make-up. most young women look great without it ; in some cases, when well applied, can turn even mediocre women into total knockouts. but by the time it's measured by the lb, it ain't doing anyone any good.
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo i have nfi what's going on with those two articles. they don't even make sense.
nubbins`: i admittedly DGAF about sedol vs alphago, but wasn't the series best 3 out of 5?
adlai: !t m s.mpoe
shinohai: i am running an abe but it isn't fully synced.
phf: but i don't have a complete blockchain, and since i'm not using any sql type stuff, i need to look into how much space various hashes take up when loaded into memory
danielpbarron: man it's way easier to prepare qntra articles with my blog draft setup, and if you don't like it i'm already all set to publish it myself :D
ben_vulpes: i looked at main's imports and didn't see it including any other bitcoind namespaces pulling in the openssl/sha files
mircea_popescu: http://www.cleveland.com/open/index.ssf/2014/05/what_the_john_kasich_profile_t.html << 2014.
BingoBoingo: I might start playing with that, but can't run it until Monday. If it drops has to be fresh for Tuesday's votings
mircea_popescu: yeah. you also don't want it to get tedious.
phf: ben_vulpes: also dood wtf you stop in the city, swing through powells, and can't go 2 mi out of the way to get your eyes on my fp and mine on yours? << i'm guilty as charged, but it was not intended as a slight, so please don't take it as such. i needed to clear my head, and while i thought i should reach out, i didn't have it in me. this is not the last time i'm in Oregon this year, so i promise to not make the same mistake again :)
mircea_popescu: nah, i didn't ask you to maintain one. i asked for one to exist.
punkman: well you use a browser don't ya
mircea_popescu: it won't make a difference.
mircea_popescu: "and do this in the manner everyone else is, so developers aren't too surprised"
mircea_popescu: i don't think you understand what "parse html" means.
asciilifeform: the correct way to parse html is either a) don't
mircea_popescu: this shit's becoming ever more arabic isn't it. ☟︎
asciilifeform: and didn't reagan murder his other daughter?
mircea_popescu: she also sued nato for you know, bombing a building and killing her brother and daughter. nato however wasn't sent to jail, because also reasons.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform eh couldn't be arsed.
mircea_popescu: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=12-03-2016#1431095 << a) who the fuck do you imagine owns cattle and pretends they're women ; b) srsly now, this isn't how it works, you redefine the context. i own the women you'd be proud to call girlfriend, as cattle. and yes, they have exactly nothing against this arrangement, in fact, they bluntly prefer being owned by me than being your girlfriend. now you're lookin at the prob ☝︎
mircea_popescu: nice font o.O. who's scws. where's the provably fair link ? why would i play roulette, i don't want to give you 5% or w/e the fuck the edge was. 1% is generous, this is not 1750.
mircea_popescu: (for a reasonably well documented case of this, see the various middle eastern deals that didn't include the derp)
fluffypony: punkman: that doesn't work anymore, with iOS 9 it does reasonable voice recognition
funkenstein_: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=11-03-2016#1430662 <-- TXID or it didn't happen ☝︎
asciilifeform: like the various ethederpium meetings 'you' didn't see mircea_popescu at, etc.
asciilifeform: can't help but love the 'you don't see him in any of these meetings' thing
mircea_popescu: there's a graph, it doesn't touch 1bn. ☟︎
mircea_popescu: i don't get it, who has spare rebar hooks ? what ?
mircea_popescu: but you really have to be retarded to imagine a ploy to claim industrial production is bad isn't obviously transparent and deeply ineffectual.
mircea_popescu: i suppose in another decade there won't be a way to buy soap.
mircea_popescu: (actually, amusingly enough, swift docs date from just about the era ada was fashionable. there was such a time - just like that time in the 90s when everyone was eager to implement linux-y things and you didn't really have to sell it at all, whole cities just switched for no reason) ☟︎
asciilifeform: ~i~ don't get to reverse it !
asciilifeform: anyway i don't do amulets, much as mircea_popescu is convinced of this. i ~might~ entertain laughably inaccurate hypothesis about whatevers, when i have no access (unlike to the inside of a computer) to the priors.
mircea_popescu: that is not a question i can actually answer, i don't know you well enough
mircea_popescu: "but you did take the thing and put it up your ass" "yes but no it wasn't a thing not my ass not me"
mircea_popescu: "why did you steal ?" "i had to i didnt really steal it wasn't me"|
mircea_popescu: because you aren't in control of the cognitive process that involves it.
asciilifeform would liek to visit mircea_popescu's world but it doesn't sell tickets afaik.
asciilifeform: 'you are wrong and your picture of universe is retarded but i won't say why' ?
assbot: Logged on 11-03-2016 20:37:55; asciilifeform: fiat isn't btc, nobody walks away with irretrievable 100m.
mircea_popescu: yeah wel lyou don't work at webstack firm.
asciilifeform: i will be very surprised if clitler doesn't get 90%.
shinohai doesn't have a spare nic :/
asciilifeform: frolicking with the spmalkyries in spmalhalla, isn't he.
gribble: strp was last seen in #bitcoin-assets 1 year, 23 weeks, 0 days, 0 hours, 6 minutes, and 34 seconds ago: <strp> no thanks, thickasthieves. I don't have to justify talking with anyone else I talk with.
jurov: i have not seen anything that can't be explained by gross incompetence
asciilifeform: jurov: if i knew how to rob hitler, i wouldn't be poor.
jurov: you don't need 100m, i hope
asciilifeform: fiat isn't btc, nobody walks away with irretrievable 100m. ☟︎
jurov: asciilifeform: you don't like to see the beast bleed?
jurov: Well, as it turns out, Bangladesh doesn't agree that the Fed isn't ultimately culpable. "We kept money with the Federal Reserve Bank and irregularities must be with the people who handle the funds there," Finance Minister Abul Maal Abdul Muhith said on Wednesday.
jurov: !t m x.eur
asciilifeform: but i can't fathom why to do it voluntarily.
pete_dushenski: people don't need to be paid. pee-ple. not redditards, now.
pete_dushenski: reddit is like a pseudo-stake for people who don't otherwise have one, but care to dip their toes in now and again
asciilifeform can't be bothered to read any
thestringpuller: Pure unsupervised learning I don't think is possible which I guess ascii and I both yearn for...
pete_dushenski: specifically, that the nsa doesn't leave ~everyone alone as a matter of practical necessity ?
jurov: didn't he go further? like, upload your genome to eth, and let it procreate
BingoBoingo doesn't understand what was so wrong about lye soap
jurov: I don't like laureate-contining stuff because it's hard to wash off.
asciilifeform: i don't have a proper place for this.
asciilifeform: 'nsa could force us to capture packets' -- at&t
mircea_popescu: http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/worldnews/11414064/How-Europe-is-slowly-dying-despite-an-increasing-world-population.html << great map there. who doesn't have the problem ? oh, the uk, because
mircea_popescu: irl, "romania, poland et all didn't have the problem - until they joined eu".
mircea_popescu: wouldn't work, no.
mircea_popescu: well, it cares, because that 500mn europe has a 1.x children per woman, and 90% of them are made with idiots, and the 5mn are... also idiots. once you start looking at the actual demographic breakdown, it couldn't really take 50k of the derps.
mircea_popescu: there is ~no way europe doesn't turn into africa.
assbot: Logged on 16-02-2014 22:04:18; asciilifeform: they pass an old man who says, 'don't drown this fellow. i'll feed him dumplings, he won't have to do any work but to dip them'
mircea_popescu: then the female drive to reproduce is finally balanced, and i frankly wouldn't care if they want or don't want to get pregnant, make your own choices.
ben_vulpes: also dood wtf you stop in the city, swing through powells, and can't go 2 mi out of the way to get your eyes on my fp and mine on yours?
