% of the time for an overpaid "service" job waitering / barristaing / whatever coyote ugly fantasy nonsense.
BingoBoingo: ben_vulpes: But does it do this ALL the time? How many nines in your 99.X
% does it take to make the idea uncomfortable?
mircea_popescu: hangovers are unknown in civilised lands, such as transylvania. getting immensely drunk on the local stuff makes one's heart not in the slightest hurt. there's just this extremely pleasant mellowness the day following imbibing a liter of 52
% tuica.
mircea_popescu: other than the lulz implicit - let's do some math here. so - hillary won, as the progretards don't fail to mention, the popular vote. hence... 92
% of 50.5
% = 1/3 of 100

% with 10
% left ; and az (11) by another 4
% with 25
% left. that's 265. he leeads by 1
% in my (16), which is very enough. he also leads in penn (20) 2706146-2680667 with ~3
% still to count.
mircea_popescu: the point being that it's not as reliable as car, not even close. if you gotta show up in the morning unexpectedly (meaning, you partied with two hos till 3 am) and then the weather's bad, your survival rate dropped to like 60
%.
trinque: ohio 89
% in with him up by about half mil.

% to win, last updated 14hrs ago. bahaha teh butt-tears.

% is what they mean.

% of the money is on the other side...
pete_dushenski: i bet a few different meatwotters on the us election outcome. shillary was shoe-in for 95

mircea_popescu: once that's done, 98 to 99.9
% of all "costs" suddenly vanish, and suddenly you get a sane health system.

% BingoBoingo: PeterL: 25
% is the least it is going up depending on your ZIP code

ben_vulpes: oh and in other glorious socialist republics of oregon, a 2
% tax on corporate sales made it to the ballot this year.
mircea_popescu: amusingly, a 51
% attack doesn't even have to skin the lamb. it can just fleece it (respend all the segwit coins up to point x, retroactively invalidating any txn that ever rely on their proceeds) AND THEN agree to "never to process counter txn" for the future.
mircea_popescu: because rarely they get to skim as much as 10
% of a public works contract, this is from an economic perspective a much better deal. unfortunately it doesn't scale - but in the end days of the empire scale is the last of the concern of the scurrying rats.
mircea_popescu: add to this the usual technological 15
% (you'll need hallways too, right ?) and suddenly you're talking 1k sqm / 10`000 sqfeet as an absolute minimum. going all the way up to multiple acres of floorspace.

% gas, so connection over butt is almost as good too.

mircea_popescu: and also pushing the "college can charge whatever it wants - but it will never get more than 10
% of the student's future pay, so whatevs" is pretty much the only way out of the mess.
mircea_popescu: they have ap oint though : this debt holds "all of us" back - if college numbers were released from this peg in reality the gdp could go as high as 500
% the first month.
