mike_c: i hatez all
the colors
mike_c: kakobrekla: please change all
the colors again,
they aren't my favorite.
trinque: kakobrekla:
thank you sir; I'll change
the URL generation on my end
to match
the previous links
mike_c: yes, he is misguided. I didn't mean
to criticize
the room, just
try
to offer him an additional viewpoint.
mircea_popescu: jurov stop
trying
to get people
to
tell you
their ideas
to steal
them
then!
jurov: kakobrekla: plz
to use perceptually uniform color space instead
jurov: mike_c it was clear he did not want input on
the idea, but only on
the investor
mircea_popescu: (which also means "a 20yos
time is NOT worth anything")
mike_c: that is probably
true.
mike_c: if your
time is worth anything.
mike_c: yeah, I just wanted
to add
the additional advice of - just because you *can* find an investor doesn't mean you should.
mircea_popescu: i just
told him how
to approach a problem correectly is all
mike_c: you're all
telling him how
to get money when you should be
telling him
to stop
trying.
trinque: wat; it was
the other way round
mircea_popescu: mike_c is
this in
the line of "whether you can find a woman or not shoul;d nopt be
the determining factor in whether you start a family" ?
mike_c: of course you can find someone
to give you some money. doesn't mean you should waste your
time doing it.
mircea_popescu: which, i wager, is 90% of
the useful reaction you've received on it anyway
mike_c: do you have any reasonable plan for beating
the umpteen existing exchanges? or any idea of what
their problems are?
mircea_popescu: but otherwise, you can just add your link
to
the scoopbot here.
mike_c: williamdunne: whether or not you can find an investor shouldn't be
the determining factor of whether or not you start
the business.
mircea_popescu: wilbns
the plantform choiuce is not a crime, i just am a very hateful soul.
jurov: kakobrekla: consider using few other bits
to color a
text slightly,
too
wilbns: wow i'm really having a problem
typing. i
think
the word and
type something else.
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: You said as much when discussing BitBet colors and
the gray side and
the blue side
mircea_popescu: kakobrekla actually 6 btes from
the nick hash -> color seems ideal
to me.
BingoBoingo: kakobrekla: Gotta remember MP only sees about a
third of all colors, but
the colors he sees are pink
kakobrekla: right now it picks colors randomly each
time, had also a variant of making color from hash of
the nick. if
that is preferred.
wilbns: re: medium,
the reason i use
that space is because hopefully something i write will be of some use
to somehow who can do something positive with it later - if i just stick it on my blog it
then i doubt anyone will ever seen it, barring a contextual keyword phrase match
BingoBoingo: <gribble> New rating | rg > -10 > maidak | owes me $10k << from
the other WoT's scroll
wilbns: that's what i was
thinking
wilbns: ah, yes -
that's a good link
mircea_popescu concludes
that medium articles with b-a present authors, while not necessarily better, at least provide one
the perhaps void feeling of having done something for
the future.
mircea_popescu: it is
the exact example case you wish for your argument, and it's a pity
to not reference it (especially because it connotes not-done-homework for
they in
the actual know as
to
the
topics you discuss re law and precedent etc)
wilbns: cool, i will - and check out
the gpg contracts article
wilbns: mircea_popescu:
thanks, i missed
that,
too
mircea_popescu: precedence is when one
thing goes above another. precedent is when one
thing goes before another. do not mix.
wilbns: punkman:
thanks, missed
that one
mircea_popescu: "The first dimension of
this complexity is
that
the area of law, in itself, is generally based on legal precedence" << no. it is based on precedent.
mircea_popescu: this sort of
thing is exactly what
the scammers involved want.
mircea_popescu: might as well
take a discussion of "dilution is medicine" and write a sci-fi work about how a universe with
this would look like.
mircea_popescu: wilbns so outright i see
the following problem : you discuss ethereum at
the maximal outskirts of what its proponents presnet it as.
this is not unlike
taking a ponzi schemer's "idea" and pretending it would be a central bank,
then discussing how "it regulates financial flows". rank nonsense.
danielpbarron: >> For anyone residing in
the United States, Ether
tokens, since
they have an implied fiat value and can be bought or sold with digital assets, like Bitcoin, fall under IRS 2014-21.
trinque: they're going
to get plenty of reuse out of
that headline
mats: rar is still in use
today
wilbns: mircea_popescu: it's regarding
the idea of a hypothesis,
theorem, manifesting it self later on down in
the line
the form of something else, not necessarily positive
BingoBoingo: Heroin addicts isn't a plural of
things. It is a singular system
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu:
They don't need
to other heroin addicts do
that for
them, until it is
the next batches "turn"
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo
they don't drag
their lifeless, smelly corpses
to a hole and pour anhudrous calcium carbonate on
themselves. do
they.
mircea_popescu: wilbns on what is
this einstein reference based, other
than "it'd be cool" ?
mircea_popescu will
temporarily suspend his disdain for medium
to read
this one. lettuce see.
assbot: Logged on 17-08-2015 18:45:12; nubbins`: it looks like
they literally copied
the /r/bitcoin header, magic-wand-selected
the background, paint-bucketed it blue,
tacked on "xt" and saved it as a jpeg
thestringpuller: ascii_field: i did and it worked. lemme
try with more memory
wilbns: ...in
the event anyone would like
to read.
trinque: kakobrekla: pls
to cname deeds.bitcoin-assets.org
to deedbot.org ?
mircea_popescu: given
that
the alternative is "raise an army", and given
that "iof you raise an army, might as well sell
the captured women into slavery and cultivate poppies", people who don't particularly like
the sight of moaning, chained women and heroin addicts have little choice.
assbot: Logged on 17-08-2015 18:37:20; danielpbarron:
the whole piece reads
to me like "this is how
to be good obiedient
tax cattle"
ascii_field: thestringpuller:
try building on a computer ..?
mircea_popescu: it never found any utility, whcih is why you've not heard of either except in
the way one hears of
the once great hittite empire
trinque: hey, btw. if someone cnames deeds.bitcoin-assets.com
to deedbot.org I'll make
that link in
the declaration work again.
assbot: Logged on 17-08-2015 18:32:48; punkman: oh it does? didn't know
that
shinohai: mircea_popescu: I was
thinking about
the declaration when I saw
that.
ascii_field: thestringpuller: looks like an oomkill
to me
BingoBoingo: In other news one interview for one job
today seemed
to go meh,
the other job's interview seemed
to go well. Hoping I can get
that regular fiat income
to start standing up srs noedz
☟︎ ascii_field: there is
this whole fiction called 'n-factor authentication' (various values of n,
typically 2)
mircea_popescu: ascii_field "natura" in
there is "the immediately observable", not
the subatomic.
there's a reason cardano rng uses electrons not whores moaning.
mircea_popescu: and
the fact
that life exists continually proves
they're really very bad passwords.
mircea_popescu: the fact
that life exists on earth is,
to me, proof
that "fuzzy passwords" are a crock.
ascii_field: (you will ~never~ get exactly same waveform into
the microphone, etc)
ascii_field: which is
to say, either it is so 'fuzzy'
that bruteforce is
trivial, or it is narrow enough
to make it non-repeatable
