mircea_popescu: this is why all the ridiculous military failures of the us since vietnam : it built an army which is only useful
as an army if NOT fighting.
mircea_popescu:
as to van : people like a congressman or an ex ciadirector are very poor examples, because a key part of the cure is maintaining very hard counter-terrorism measures on the ground. no colby, owens, petreus etc ever said "you will have to shoot me, and expect to fail unless you bring armored units, and to lose a score of operatives in any case."
mircea_popescu: (protip : "onlyallfours" is a very bad idea, especially on hard floors. bursitis is at thing, if you give a horse shoes to protect hooves from hard pavement, might
as well give the slavegirls kneepads.)
mircea_popescu: then, once that worked
as well
as you'd expect, moving on to "oh, nothing notable, many things just like it" ?
mircea_popescu: moreover, "n confirmation doublespends" still needs you to produce mined blocks of a proper difficulty, which is just
as hard
as on the main net.
mircea_popescu: the idea you are going to "monopolize" connections to a node is laughable,
as they are all implemented to have hardwired connections you don't get to touch, in a pedestrian, difficult and unwieldy reimplementation of a wot system.
assbot: Logged on 26-11-2013 16:54:13; nubbins`: floor. vast communities of bulky orderlies. rowhouses of nurses. all rooms are hospitals now. the firmament, a massive inferno of blue-black gods. judges pouring time
as the piss of Dionysus. insects dripping honey and pulling wax upon my ears. says, 'All the angels can dance on the tip of a pin. all thoughts can jig upon the point of a pen'
nubbins`: put another way, do not solder a battery holder into your pogo and use it
as a wallet, either 8)
nubbins`: (what's up with the CV
as a footnote?)
nubbins`: while ostensibly pink eye has business using a gpg key around these parts, it's hard for me to justify "signing foundation code releases"
as a relevant business activity
mod6: It'd be nice to have it in there anyway, signed by yourself. And then I can mention it in this months address
as well.
danielpbarron: do miners even sell in there? or is it all people acting
as coinbase pass-throughs?
nubbins`: nod, the ".ub" confused
as the gunzip'd file had no ext
assbot: The murder of US journalist David Rosenbaum,
as he investigated corrupt US judges - questions remain ... (

nubbins`: or
as westy likes to pronounce, "sole"
mike_c: path 1: engineer each product perfectly and ship 20 months late (sorry s.nsa). path 2: push it out, make sure it works
as advertised, if it gets popular and sticks around, smooth out rough edges.
mike_c: davout: re s.mg. I think the problem there is that it is speculative whether they will be able to generate enough revenue to move the needle on the share price. so you might have your capital frozen in a stock that is basically valued
as a pile of cash.
nubbins`: i guess this is
as good a time
as any to call it a night
nubbins`: i read it
as pallet earlier. i can store pellets.
trinque:
as is debtors prison without real money
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu> how exactly is this strat supposed to go : i couldn't make the "preponderence of evidence" standard but i'll make the "absolute proof" ? << That or make preponderance of evidence standard use
as proof in criminal case
mircea_popescu: someone needs to tell him this civil-criminal thing is
as close
as it gets to double jeopardy in the us
mircea_popescu: i broadly agree, but imo veblen-ness behaves strangely,
as in : window. from about 100 to maybe 5 or 10k a bottle.
decimation: the problem with open source is that the source code might
as well be on mars if nobody can read/use it
mircea_popescu: i'm not going to go
as far
as to say "date a french somellier chick that can actually tell you what you ate after you squirt her palate"
mircea_popescu: this is about
as sustainable
as a tower of liquid piss in the shape of roosevelt's wheelchair.
trinque got ass-bit by a brown recluse once, didn't bitch
as much
as the story
mircea_popescu: mp lights cigarette, cab turns in immediately, mp is revered
as god by the kid in question.)
danielpbarron: it sounds like a very hard thing to do if you've never soldered before, but think of it
as a good excuse to learn a new skill
nubbins`: it's just off-label usage
as far
as we're concerned.
nubbins`: <+trinque> what if the seed list was encoded directly
as transactions? <<< how you gonna get those transactions?
trinque: what if the seed list was encoded directly
as transactions?
mircea_popescu: it does not work. might
as well grab the moon with a tweezer
ascii_field thought that mircea_popescu was asking why the machines are offered for purchase rather than,
as often happens with such equipment, for lease
mircea_popescu: 'We
as a company own all of the machines. There is no outstanding balance and we've already had the tech come out to unlock them."
ascii_field: 'We
as a company own all of the machines. There is no outstanding balance and we've already had the tech come out to unlock them. Due to some business changes, we want to move the machines around the shop floor to reconfigure our machining cell however
as we've done more research, we've found that there is a small board in the electrical panel of the machine that houses a gyroscope so that if the machine is moved/tilted,
trinque: "I've always felt
as if my brain was always wired for a short circuit or at least in a way that wasn't too appealing for anyone else but me.
mircea_popescu: if you b-a her name it's all in there because she's one of those (unfamous, anon irrelevant people that appear suddenly and on one topic.
as opposed to say lenin.)
ben_vulpes: and shouldn't this discussion be looking at ipv6
as well?
ascii_field: and i disagree with mircea_popescu's hypothesis that 'enemy is stupid'. he is not stupid. he is being slow, so
as to show off his sprezzatura.
nubbins`: my ip address will be fine to use
as a seed node, but it /may occasionally change/
ascii_field: likewise physical delivery is expensive. (witness kakobrekla's attempt to buy so much
as one pogo and still have it 'feel disposable')
ascii_field: danielpbarron: i'd like more specific info on how to make my own u-boot << i have a u-boot built from official source. the buildroot thing -also- builds a u-boot,
as a matter of course, but i have not yet tested that one
nubbins`: ourlibs is where things get put
as they're compiled
nubbins`: incidentally, coffee is up there with wine
as far
as variety of chemical compunds goes
nubbins`: but that's about
as close
as it gets
mircea_popescu: at any rate : most actual foodstuffs, such
as pickles, cheeses, cured and aged meats etc aren't even flora-enumerated, in the sense that we don't even really know what all grows on them
assbot: Logged on 21-03-2015 04:52:20; mircea_popescu: but to belabour the point : one of the principal reasons "measuring iq"
as it were height is so ridiculous, is because nobody has yet had an off day for height.
danielpbarron: that is, blocks are only accepted
as valid if they meet the difficulty requirement *and* are blessed with the magic key
chetty: <mircea_popescu> According to the 2002/2003 census, 143,167 farms had plum trees bearing fruit covering a total area of 554 km². According to the same census, about 75% of the crop ends up
as țuică.//only 75%?

mircea_popescu: well i was talking of the traditional process
as used, not of whatever random strange one may try.
cazalla: well, if one is going to eat plastic food, may
as well drink plastic too
cazalla: i suspek gypies sell non-alcoholic wine to young romanian men
as american's sell oregano to the teens :P
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: Pretty much, so long
as you offer me an identify that does not have a history of long term use of lamotrinine of chloro-amphetamines
BingoBoingo is sure most people's best chance at passing the bar is hiring me to ident
as them through law school
cazalla: i can just see you
as the romanian vers of it's only smellz
mircea_popescu: fun fact : most large felines don't know how to shit
as infants, so the mother licks their asshole to stimulate bowel movements.
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: I am totally fine with the En language space surrendering except
as a pidgin used in trade. If you let a single slant language into the acceptable trading space though. I sense trouble. Don't know of, but anticipate
