mircea_popescu: see, you can tell the guy is genuinely 60ish not just because of his specific pre-internet use of language ; but also because of his default mental models.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform it's not a novel concept to me -- coins that are only verified on exchange.
mircea_popescu:
http://btcbase.org/log/2018-01-25#1776463 << hey, i knew a guy who didn't finance (1980s!) porn ventures because "not interested in the loose women". bought "blue chip" fucking revlon and bs instead. i'm sure there's even today ossified mind going "i'm not into tmsr because i'm not interested in terrorism". hurr durr, you never know what things are really about.
☝︎ mircea_popescu: yes, they must, but not with a view to validate theory of evolution ; with a view to expunge head cockroaches
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform sorta like "Each user must read darwin theory for himself"
mircea_popescu: i'm needling him about systems design matters because he's interested, and intelligent enough, and occasionally sparks from it.
mircea_popescu: throw darts at ben_vulpes end up tackled by mod6 ; what is this, like teamwork ?
mircea_popescu: jesus what a juggernaut this guy is. YO! that's not the sentiment.
mircea_popescu: mod6 dun take it personal ; for one thing i'm hussling him not you.
mircea_popescu: the issue is not "what is basic", but "you are too harsh" / "am not"
mircea_popescu: not because it does anything, but because...well... it burns, what.
mircea_popescu: guy exists so google can pretend to misunderstand which mircea popescu people are looking for.
mircea_popescu: oh lol. they summoned up an imperial-flavoured alt-mp. has ~nothing to do with anything, and no other claim to fame besides "hey, we can pretend THIS is relevant".
mircea_popescu: yes, but a perfectly dumb item is as respectable as the perfect woman.
mircea_popescu: there's no intrinsic reason to close the auction ; if you solve this you may have something.
mircea_popescu: honestly your coin idea isn't even bad, in theory. in practice it has a fundamental flaw. you see, bitcoin acts AS A CLOCK. this is its principal function. your thing has no clock.
mircea_popescu: hanbot hey, make a mp-wp install for the young'un ? i've a mind to publicly expose her.
mircea_popescu: what can you do ? she's not setting up any bouncers as a three day old.
mircea_popescu:
http://btcbase.org/log/2018-01-25#1776348 << this is a much deeper problem anyway. emmylark chick is like "do you have a preference" re windows irc clients. i don't, i don't run windows. "what should i run ?" "err... we'll talk of this later, slut". which is fine, she's used to "you're too dumb to be told this story yet", EXCEPT in this case it's not her that's too dumb.
☝︎ mircea_popescu: lobbes sadly thaty book is not availablew in my country ;/ i wonder if you could buy it for me and ship it!!1
mircea_popescu: you can sorta guess when exactly the "strong independent woman" will start bawing like a little girl on the basis of the displayed priors.
mircea_popescu: i don't mean it was a historical event ; just as a counterfactual.
mircea_popescu: because self-effacing "nobility" of retarded white cuck.
mircea_popescu: the thought was that this runs for a coupla hours after hours on uni computer
mircea_popescu: 2 was not actually stated by anyone, i'm just saying for the record.
mircea_popescu: both 1 and 2 seem a rather "we'll fix the car by retrofitting horse carriage to it"
mircea_popescu: 1. the idea to have "changelog only" patches as a signature device is a major departure from how v worked previously, it semanticizes an item that we only recently even introduced ; 2. the idea to have patches that are deliberately non-compliant so "they won't be mainline" is a solution to what i thought an inexistend problem -- why not maintain special "experumental" keys for the purpose instead, l;ike sane people ?
mircea_popescu: i suppose the idea here is to turn this into a semantic device ?
mircea_popescu: trinque if they don't touch changelog they'll have to be reground then
mircea_popescu: nah, that's just a reference to an old romulus vulpescu translation of decameron
mircea_popescu: hmm, where the hell is the place where i say the father's responsibility to his daughter is to shove a pound of raw prime beef down her throat every day and naught else ?
☟︎ mircea_popescu: (steam engine existed because metalworking, and the metalworking involved exists because cannons. industrial revolution is the result of having stolen gunpowder.)
mircea_popescu: much like xtians got gunpowder from china and it sparked.
mircea_popescu: and somehow THEY'RE supposed to be the uncivilised orcs.
mircea_popescu: poor arabs, they invented all this shit, we ran with it with our inept ways and nearly fucked it into the ground
mircea_popescu: this is back to the glyphs discussion all over again. "fix your printer!"
mircea_popescu: the other one does ~this same thing~ but ~to the machine~.
mircea_popescu: how i regret it! every day i mourn it! they wounded me so very deeply, these idiots, with their idiotic misbehaviour! to the very core of my being i suffer for their failure to have ammounted to a hill of beans!
mircea_popescu: awww. so that means i can say whatever and nobody has any ground to stand on and argue "his" way ?
mircea_popescu: because afaik this is a whisperer's product and it THEREFORE carries no weight.
mircea_popescu: if there were a costless thing, by all means. but "between saving for six months to afford the thing i need and "buying" this other thing i don't need on easy rates i choose the former" though ?!
mircea_popescu: i do noit dispute it does cost, but so does this other isnanity.
mircea_popescu: on every add. what, the cost of the shift is the issue here ?
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform do it shift two and carry the last bit adequately ?
mircea_popescu: the whole edifice is rotten. special order ? if they wanted this SHOULD HAVE CHANGED THE SIGN BIT POSITION OMFG
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform i don't understand the argument. so you write left to right, so what does this say ?
