undata: mircea_popescu: I use the same for code review, even if it's a matter of emailing myself
kakobrekla: mircea_popescu is that verboten here?
kakobrekla: <mircea_popescu> asciilifeform: the non-classical version strings are interesting << the first time i said ppl alter their strings ppl hgere were "oh, mp is just making shit up to win an internet argument" < i can see how someone running v0.9 would set the string to 'ducky duck' but not v0.1.
decimation: mircea_popescu: it appeals to the un crapolade
BingoBoingo: <mircea_popescu> best tomatoes! << We still have tomatoes ripening...

kakobrekla: as promised i have setup a mirror for ze logs - http://log1.bitcoin-assets.com - hosting for the mirror gratuitously provided by mircea_popescu
thestringpuller: mircea_popescu: that's what I thought but based on these numbers...($2491 for ~13mn shares doesn't add up to the published market value as it looks like the ask value is ~ 8 cents a share)
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu> best take people at their peak << Great value of a WoT system as here has is you can know what their bottom is
thestringpuller: mircea_popescu: All officers and directors voluntarily agreed to the Company's redemption of an aggregate of 12,750,000 shares of common stock for an aggregate payment of $2,491. In doing so, the Company will have further flexibility in continuing to strengthen its balance sheet and ultimately add shareholder value. << could you help me decipher what is going on here accounting wise?
cazalla: mircea_popescu, the reminder emails will probably get bitpay flagged for spam too
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: Cazalla as head of qntra was a gift that keeps giving. Dude knows tone.
BingoBoingo: The New Reno region mircea_popescu wants to playground eventually as new world hantaviruses, keep your distance from the mice...
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: it would be, if it were simple to mirror. and every post signed.
undata: mircea_popescu: haaaa
BingoBoingo: <mircea_popescu> mod6: me too, that threw me off. but maybe i did something silly with the install by creating a root account? i'm not super clued on deb... but it asked me to make a root account first, then a user account. so that was kinda bizzare to me. << no that's how debian did it for what, 10, 15 years ? << I thought it was just Ubuntu that only made a user account they'd turn into a super sudoer
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: congrats
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: naive idea. they unplugged this, to avoid ru proper being swamped with the entire contents of kazahstan, ua, baltics, all the provinces
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: you were born there. what more << ussr kaput
jurov: mircea_popescu: odessa changed country meanwhile
pete_dushenski: mircea_popescu "either you renounce ALL your laws or we burn you to the ground." << now here's a radical concept. probably the same one that was invoked at parliament hill today
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: but you were born in odessa ? then you do have ru citizenship no? << lol! the whole city would've emptied in '92 or even earlier, if this were so.
undata: mircea_popescu: that's that suicidal streak I was talking about
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: White kids from ladue studying with Black kids from Ferguson and North City?
pete_dushenski: mircea_popescu i'd be highly surprised.
pete_dushenski: mircea_popescu did you see piketty's letter about gw?
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: Qntra already has n=1 bikeshed http://qntra.net/2014/10/cryptocoinsnews-is-anything-but/#comment-120
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: It's Just a Q and an n
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: yes
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: Looks like the Seargent at Arms
nubbins`: <+mircea_popescu> <asciilifeform> my mental concept of freedom is more or less synonymous with never setting an alarm clock again. << ha! not even for say, a comet ? <<< i'm down to one alarm a week
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: but - yer not an inmate.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: again, you. not us inmates.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: was 6 << easy then
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: that only works if you're caesar - or at least, a free man.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: it wasn't an intellectual breakthrough of any kind whatsoever - but is apparently 'canonical' among the community of the Officially Sad.
BingoBoingo: Oh mircea_popescu was slow this time, probably becaus more age
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu is wallowing with the eagles? mega-lol though
undata: mircea_popescu: was born in florida; this checks out
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: You know invisible illness like schizophrenia of HIV++

asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: http://www.butyoudontlooksick.com/articles/written-by-christine/the-spoon-theory
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: http://i.imgur.com/8XqmkJM.jpg << ever read the infamous 'spoons' essay?
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: Kuhn is the one who tried the versioning things with science http://www.amazon.com/The-Structure-Scientific-Revolutions-Edition/dp/0226458083
los_pantalones: mircea_popescu you may get gavin & co to ethereum mode sooner rather than later
nubbins`: mircea_popescu am i even better in person?!
cazalla: mircea_popescu: cazalla by the way, intel sez that the reason you've not heard from sgornick nor will you is that the guy meanwhile figured out i'm involved, and doesn't like me either because i said nigger or cunt at some point in the past. <<< what a fucking cunt
mircea_popescu: <FabianB> mircea_popescu: ^^ fixed < ty!
FabianB: jurov: mircea_popescu: why is http://mpex.co/mpex-vwap.php and http://mpex.coinbr.com/mpex-vwap.php different?
FabianB: mircea_popescu: ^^ fixed
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: I know local host, but didn't qntra.net point there at one point?

empyex: mircea_popescu: Want a bash? http://bash.bitcoin-assets.com/?quote=86 Or use a valid MPSIC!
fluffypony: mircea_popescu: ikr
Plaxant: mircea_popescu agree, if you have no negativity in your life you skate and just don't care about doing better.
punkman: mircea_popescu: yeah should be up by friday
jurov: mircea_popescu: but iirc it signs the diff, not just commit message
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: i rarely if at all run openbsd tho << now we know, he has personal os and btc apparatus! with alien technology.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: care to upload a favourite and signed openbsd installer? then we roll tonight.
mod6: mircea_popescu: ok thanks, good point.
mod6: <+mircea_popescu> ben_vulpes mod6 so draft a charter, then we can bitch at it. << okay :)
The20YearIRCloud: mircea_popescu: thanks, although you're a few weeks late :D
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: the term you're looking for is 'non-orthogonality' - ancient lament on my site
The20YearIRCloud: mircea_popescu: - I've passed out a few, not to all tenants though due to the baby being born on last rent cycle
othernubs`: mircea_popescu> draft a charter, then it gets gpg signed and that's it ? i'd donate <<< me too

Apocalyptic: <mircea_popescu> sooo.... why military bases then ? // didn't get that either
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: ISIS invading, hell of a thing to wake up to.
cazalla: mircea_popescu, i remember hearing about this kid, nfi if he actually was part of lulzsec or not
thickasthieves: <+mircea_popescu> being a miner is notoriously a "nobody's business" type of affair. there's nothing to be gained really. /// well, what if we picture the future 10 years out? are representatives of large hash more communicative? or is there 'political' position on bitcoin technicals more known?
thestringpuller: ;;later tell mircea_popescu I'm glad you can still be young at heart re: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=18-10-2014#882514 ☝︎
pete_dushenski: mircea_popescu: romania was for a while on par with somalia. << but romania got "aid"
pete_dushenski: mircea_popescu: this is also quite right. either russia or china can in fact raise interest rates causing a collapse. << their own rates? or just dump some us bonds and trigger us rate increase?
pete_dushenski: mircea_popescu: a quarter bn in 2014 ? seriously ? all into shit ? << lol. tip of the derpberg.
pete_dushenski: mircea_popescu i'll repent by updating my "how to run a node" article with ben_vulpes' final work :)
ben_vulpes: http://search.bitcoin-assets.com/?q=mircea_popescu&start=5000 << mthreat wouldja be so kind as to expand how far back the search goes?
ben_vulpes: <mircea_popescu> 0.5.6rc3 works << enhanced sync speed?
artifexd: <mircea_popescu> how the fuck it is code never shrinks ? << Code does shrink sometimes. But not due to concentration on features or bugs. If it happens, it happens because the developer grows and improves. One of my favorite days was deleting 60k lines of code that I had written and replacing it with 100 lines. Simpler. Faster. Easier to understand.
pete_dushenski: mircea_popescu lol will do. i remember that article well.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: incidentally, you probably know who 'mitre' is a shill for.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: typical, actually
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: care to drop even a small hint of what you're using? gizmo of own authorship? it isn't like you keep it hotwalleted, anyway
mircea_popescu: <ben_vulpes> <mircea_popescu> anyway, the consensus seems to be 6.3 ? << i've yet to hear a compelling argument for anything past 0.5.3 << ok, so 5.4
asciilifeform still puzzled that mircea_popescu won't pick a favourite here
ben_vulpes: <mircea_popescu> anyway, the consensus seems to be 6.3 ? << i've yet to hear a compelling argument for anything past 0.5.3
decimation: mircea_popescu: it strikes me that if rates are hiked both stocks and bonds would take a hit
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: but i have about the same amount of use for the information as a chimp does for pentium
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: no need for muppetry, i get same notes from ru armchair generals
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: even plausible that usg permitted this to avoid hastening axe-time, sword-time, bitcoin-time
decimation: mircea_popescu: stupid on whose part?
BingoBoingo: <mircea_popescu> the bug is not so much of a concern, nobody is typing the book into a machine. << Wait, then what was the purpose again?
TheNewDeal: mircea_popescu: there's not enough lsd in the world... << agreed
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: pipe << popular in usa in certain circles, in the '70s, i'm told
othernubs`: mircea_popescu, so you're spilling your seekrit code fork or what?!
othernubs`: decimation, mircea_popescu bibles are like fine cigarette papers, made from rice
