nubbins`: because they quickly alienate themselves from the locals
as well
as the other foreigners
jurov: nubbins`: you can use these
as illuminations for alf's book
Adlai: my pet theory of late is that satoshi intentionally built 0.1 on winblows
as a red herring
mircea_popescu: "Iran will emerge, whether we like it or not,
as the central power in their sphere," said Aaron David Miller, an analyst at the Wilson Center and former State Department official.
assbot: Logged on 24-03-2015 07:14:17; cazalla: mircea_popescu: why let everyone think beauty and brains don't mix ? <<< get those eyes checked, perhaps same time
as indiancandy gets that nose seen too
assbot: Logged on 24-03-2015 07:00:23; brendafdez: This brings us to another issue which is the way the 'foundations' present themselves
as as sort of official representation of bitcoin. That way they are better able to get funds from companies which want to be advertised and from membes of the community who want to 'be part of bitcoin'. It's what the FBA was/is doing and what the BF was/is doing on a much larger scale.
brendafdez: but for quite a while there's been a trend to sell 'decentralization of your grandma through smart contracts in the blockchain'
as the next big thing, that's maybe just smoke and meaningless bullshit to appeal to the vcs

brendafdez: but also it was always open to people who wanted to come with us.
As generally we weren't even covering the costs, having more poeple participate usually meant each one had to pay a smaller fraction, usually less money.
ben_vulpes: hence the startup
as flamethrower fueled by bezzlars metaphor.
brendafdez: it was awesome for us
as an experience I must say, getting to know the local communites, to travel so much, also to be able to promote one 'real use case' for bitcoin to local service providers
brendafdez: When we presented our project
as an independent bunch of guys it wasn't the same.

brendafdez: well, i don't have plans, but it may happen. The last trip we made
as part of the Giras Bitcoiners project was Asunción in Paraguay last December. The funding issue wasn't getting better. Only one of the trips allowed us to break even.
ben_vulpes:
as far
as the wot goes, you are actually the newest member.
ben_vulpes: kind of only insofar
as it might get me lower price tickets
brendafdez: ben_vulpes I could put you in contact with people who may want to do it, but I think they have their issues with customs too, not
as stringent
as argentina
ben_vulpes: full fingerprint, marteen. "long",
as they say.
brendafdez: mircea, in all honesty what wasn't working was life to the point I didn't want to go on (should've put an ad on gofundme but didn't occur to me). That was solved: social intereaction now is a whole different thing and it's much better. The fact that I still don't get to have the sex I like with the people I like is a minor issue compared to social interaction being broken
as a whole.
brendafdez: Anyway, I don't think claiming it and presenting female so
as to x would be a good strategy at all, if you don't prefer it, you'll end up changing your mind, because it's hard to put up with all the attached issues to being perceived a woman if you were only doing it for a specific purpose
mircea_popescu: well maybe you miss the barn of a difference between "guy who is a girl because he prefers it" and "guy who claims to be a girl so
as to [...]"
mircea_popescu: i like 69
as much
as the next girl, but it never occured to me to pretend i'm a tupolev airplanewhile doing it.
mircea_popescu: social justice warrior posing
as transgender lesbian female to get cooch ?
mircea_popescu: meanwhile in idiot us discourse, because of all the "care" being "expended" to "protect", nobody can talk to anyone about anything, and
as a result everyone hates everyone else for no reason.
danielpbarron: do you have an old computer lying around that you can use
as your offline machine?
trinque: danielpbarron: yeah I find that to be true
as well
trinque: indiancandy1_: it's literally
as simple
as what I typed
danielpbarron: well yeah, you can register nick with nickserv
as you are now
danielpbarron: indiancandy1_, because winblows is insecure malware masquerading
as an operating system
brendafdez: I never had much success
as to dating/sex/relationships, so I mostly learned languages through porn. One of my language learning resources for German back in 2007 was
http://www.pantiesparadise.de/index.php i was an awesome place, and there was even another similar site, which must still be around. I never saw anything like this in English- or Spanish-land. There are som subreddits for used underwear and some girls sell theirs on eb
brendafdez: I don't think it sucks too badly, but maybe
as compared to being mp... ;)
trinque: mircea_popescu: if it's the same handle
as IRC, got suspended
mircea_popescu: plus if you suck a cock once in a blue moon you'll be popular
as all hell.
mircea_popescu: shit that was a long article. almost
as long
as the dong.
jurov: the decoder will either reover the artifacts
as intended
mircea_popescu: somehow they're not
as emphatically knowledgeable on that topic. good that they know how to posture about "confidence" re bitcoin instead.
mircea_popescu: i'm personally waiting for the credit suisse article about the loss of confidence in swiss banks
as a result of them selling out their customers to usg & friends.
brendafdez: "Even if distribution
as a means of payment continues to increase, the system's advantage – decentralization – is also its biggest drawback. Unlike legal tender, there is no authority that guarantees the value of the currency, and bitcoin does not benefit from the resulting confidence. In the end, this confidence is crucial for any currency whose usage extends beyond the exchange of goods."
https://www.credit-suisse.com/ch/en/ne mircea_popescu: bitstein inasmuch
as you want a central repository, you're stuck with a central repository. if you look into the design papers / discussions around gossipd, this is also a well solved problem, just,
assbot: Logged on 23-03-2015 16:29:55; Adlai: still a little silly for the platform bandied about
as turing-complete to lack actual bignums
bitstein: mircea_popescu: you would have the hash of the db timestamped, so you can verify that the rating is current
as of a certain point (given you have the data to recreate the hash)
bitstein: mircea_popescu: b is an important point, thanks.
As for old rather than current ratings, that's where shasums and deedbot could come in to help.
mircea_popescu:
as pere the entire "wot is not an oilfield with trust
as oil".
bitstein: mircea_popescu: I am under the impression that if they wanted to, kako or nano could publish ratings under any name
as they please. Is this correct? If so, how can someone viewing the WoT db have certainty that information they see is
as the rater intended? GPG signing would be one solution.
mircea_popescu: lol at the fluffypony businessoutsider link. EXCITING! may become the new AMAZING,
as a new generation of idiots moves into bitcoin scam pushing.
BingoBoingo: "called a Jew" scapegoat isn't
as sticky nao
ascii_field saw phoundation and gavinatronics
as mostly synonymous
mircea_popescu: anyway, gavin showed up pretty quick o nthe original lists. to no one's suprirse, nsa does read the stuff,
as amply documented.
mircea_popescu: you for some reason seem to think scam foundation and bitcoin are cogenerational. this is about
as true
as saying you and your mom were born the same week
ascii_field believes when mircea_popescu says that it -will- explode if used
as printed on the crate
ascii_field: mircea_popescu: measure the txn bytes/minute you receive from them << won't work for 0.5.3
as presently exists. bastard blocks -get transmitted- before rejected
ascii_field: i'll sum it up here. 1) sane node -always, without exception- connects to
as many wot nodes
as are up 2) then possibly connects to others from cache
mircea_popescu: And
as far
as the delays are concerned, he says, “is it really a failure if we land our first crew two, four, six, or even eight years late?”
mircea_popescu: the projects will multiply,
as time goes by, for the obvious economic reasons. the lulz will increase. lulz must be mined!
wsbtc: The more I read that page, the more I realize I didn't know nearly
as much about Bitcoin
as I though I did.
danielpbarron: yeah idk what the best filter is, but the idea is it works well
as a single color
BingoBoingo: <danielpbarron> maybe apply the "photocopy" filter to the rabbit image and use
as logo << probably would work cleaner
as lineart bunny
cazalla:
as for ads, i've wanted to run them for a while, but credible advertisers are lacking
nubbins`: anyway, a good next step would be for people who intend to receive these cards to put some thought into what info they'd like on them,
as well
as a general idea of how they'd prefer them to look
danielpbarron: maybe apply the "photocopy" filter to the rabbit image and use
as logo
nubbins`: today,
as i'm watching them eat supper, older cat tires of her food and just starts eating from younger cat's dish; younger cat retreats and waits for her turn :0
assbot:
As a reminder, you'd have to hack into my Windows 8.1 desktop behind NAT to get my ssh key & use the right IP to access my AWS hosts.
ascii_field: trinque: esp. if she was (
as you appear to suggest) a pet
Adlai: that can be distributed
as a separate patch, with sample files to verify that it does what is said
Adlai: in this case, wouldn't it be
as simple
as diddling a single routine to always return false?
PeterL: but still not worth it
as the bet currently stands
punkman: Adlai, and for extra fun "Short strings, given simply in quotes
as above, are treated
as numbers; long strings, surrounded by the text keyword
as above, are treated
as array-like objects"
Adlai: still a little silly for the platform bandied about
as turing-complete to lack actual bignums
danielpbarron: It has been reported that generating a false negative is easy, perhaps
as simple
as using images of two notes, side-by-side, rather than just one. << LOL
danielpbarron: bitstein, thestringpuller why should we be signing everything but the kitchen sink? you shouldn't use assbot's return
as gospel -- the WoT lets you know who and what to ask about a person before doing business
nubbins`: Adlai "20x raise" generally makes people VERY suspicious
as to the absolute value of your starting salary
danielpbarron: not the most scientific experiment
as I didn't start them at the same place or same time, but it might be worth noting that the debug.log for the solid state drive pogo is smaller than the other one
mircea_popescu:
as in, random derp w/o gpg installed wants to send mp stuff encrypted to mp's key, there's page on mp's site with javascript
mircea_popescu: winner1 thanks for pointing this out, it's suspicious
as fuck. dunno what happened there yet but will look into it.
