trinque: ascii_field |
as in, picture a town with no decent place to have a footrace << starving for a real challenge; I think so
ascii_field:
as in, picture a town with no decent place to have a footrace (too many hills? swamp? use imagination)
ascii_field: (which in my own mental habit i usually think of
as 'peacocking', because it is an even more obvious animal to illustrate the concept with)
ascii_field: may I live to see all these valley fuckheads impoverished << optimist. i expect to have my skull used by them
as ashtray, rather than vice-versa
☟︎ davout: question mainly being: can some random derp take already notarized deeds, and clog the pipes with them, because i assume deedbot will listen privately to deeds being submitted,
as long
as they're signed with a proper key amirite
☟︎ trinque: that's what I'm using
as the private key to generate the address
trinque: soon
as I find a moment for sanding
☟︎ nubbins`: or,
as he knew them, the dread PRETZELCOATL
ascii_field:
as al schwartz put it, 'don't invest if the conveyor has to be staffed with ph.d.'s'
nubbins`: stationary ones much less useful
as offensive weapons
nubbins`: while i reserve the term "elegance" for things much, much simpler in execution than the flaming turdball of code, it completely applies to Bitcooin
as a concept
nubbins`: marriage consummation
as a service
ascii_field: encryption-
as-a-service << that has to be a piece from 'the onion'
Adlai: so, seeing
as hpmor even got mentioned here, i eventually ventured over to read a bit of it... all else aside, the writing itself stinks just like the canon
dignork: Adlai: also free food, and place to sleep,
as for any proper slave.
cazalla: if anyone does have suggestions
as to what type of content they would like to see on Qntra, i'm all ears
cazalla: the past week has been quiet which is why so many of the other sites turn to altcoins stories to use
as filler content
mircea_popescu: basically, poor but smart chinese boy has figured out that if he uses dumb but prideful white boy
as his own hand puppet, he can let HIM get all the "certifications" which are worthless anyway, then let HIM underwrite all the credit, which is what the investors want to do anyway,
mircea_popescu: the way foxconn is using apple
as a detachable glove / investment point is exactly copied after the manner some chinese guys used "friedcat" / asicminer.
mircea_popescu: in the same vein, it would be interesting to know how much of computing expertise lies in ibm
as opposed to its gates contractors.
ben_vulpes: the position strikes me
as simply trading government intervention in free markets in one form for another form.
mircea_popescu: i don't think the usians were going to use the same chips
as europe no.matter.what.
mircea_popescu: while i expect your 90% figure of ee's working for govt is only met if you actually count every us public company
as an agency of the usg (a position not exactly undefensible, people still do the same to stuff like gazprom etc, notwithstanding the ru oligarchs actually have a lot more independence than the us "ceo"s of public corps),
mircea_popescu: or moreover : hardware has lengthy history, hard to undo by a bunch of libertards. the person doing hardware css is known
as "the cleaning lady" and doesn't get much pay.
assbot: Logged on 15-03-2015 16:54:59; decimation: " There were 1.235 million people working
as software developers last year, and 271,000 electrical engineers, according to unpublished U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics data. "
decimation: " There were 1.235 million people working

☟︎ decimation: " The number of people working
as electrical engineers declined by 29,000 last year, continuing a long-standing trend, according to government data. "
mircea_popescu: i wonder if all of this will be
as hysterically funny in the sober light of day.
mircea_popescu: "if she weighs the same
as her tits she's made of logs, and therefore.... A WITCH!"
BingoBoingo: The devil only knows which BSD Cisco corrupted into IOS or that MS uses
as the Windows network stack anymore
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: It's something I've come to recently. Surprised it isn't the offical Social Justice OS. When I first played with Open Source at a summer job in 2004 I grew an immediate dislike because it didn't work
as expected on maximally vanilla hardware at the summer job.
mircea_popescu: i am not proposing it
as normative, we were just sharing tales from youth.
BingoBoingo: <mircea_popescu> "politics is a waste of time" is the sister idiocy to "i don't feel math is useful for real life". << Seriously, shares most of the same stakes
as war, but minus bloodshed
mircea_popescu: but it's not at all what i meant. i just meant, it's to be expected, and
as far
as possible excused, that people old enough wouldn't immediately see where the fox is at.
mircea_popescu: but of intel for intel's own sake,
as an independent thing. not of intel for usg-intel, something intel itself could never, ever fix.
mircea_popescu: in fairness, i suppose the burning hatred of usg and its many agencies (such
as apple) that informs us is really a very novel thing.
cazalla: mircea_popescu, the neighbour of cousins i use to play with often
as a kid owned 2 of them.. inevitably when playing cricket, a ball would go over the fence and we'd have a discussion of who was going over the fence to get it
assbot: Logged on 15-03-2015 03:16:26; danielpbarron: "I would do but I don't really have time for IRC tbh. . and
as a communication vehicle find it too inefficient."
danielpbarron: i have mixed feelings about the price going up, but generally i'd rather it not seeing
as how I'd like more opportunity to get it cheap
danielpbarron: "I would do but I don't really have time for IRC tbh. . and
as a communication vehicle find it too inefficient."
☟︎ cazalla: i mean, there are other shops around but they charge an arm and a leg for half
as much
ben_vulpes: "earlier versions of the popular to edit so
as to make your own ransomware." << parser failure
Adlai: callsigns aren't a good example, being assigned for uniqueness (and sometimes other properties such
as perceived cleverness or snake-oil information hiding
mircea_popescu: funkenstein : id
as funkenstein_ and you can self voice.
mircea_popescu: "The amazing thing about the platform is that it is a flat fee. This means that although our traffic has grown 350% year on year our costs have not changed. The depth of their out of the box features plus ecosystem of plugins ensured that we did’t have to worry about commodity features such
as SEO, site maps and editorial workflows
as someone else had built and open sourced an approach."
mircea_popescu: "We also migrated to the hosted platform
as a service provided by Automattic on vip.wordpress.com. This enabled all of our costs and resources to be focused on growth
as they didn’t have to worry about caching, servers or anything that didn’t improve experience for our readers or editorial users. "
mircea_popescu: leaving aside the "reddit principally exists
as source of pre-spun spam text, because the cult of bayesianism really does work", jesus christ check out that life history.
mircea_popescu: "We don’t think of bitcoin
as being [...] an alternative currency [...]. We think of it
as a medium for exchange"
cazalla:
as long
as it doesn't blow it to over say 100gb, i can help, i have some older machines here too if of any use
cazalla: ben_vulpes, unfortunately, i need a lot of hand holding
as i can only get so far myself so i would likely cause you more trouble than be of help
cazalla: over the past few days i've tried a fresh install with 0.8.3, 0.8.6 and 0.10.0 and all have problems, and yes fresh
as in fresh
as i wiped hdd each time
mircea_popescu: did you shutdown your pc uncleanly ? such
as for instance power fsailure ?
ben_vulpes:
as a side note, it's lovely to see pastebin die the good death.
ben_vulpes: <bagehot> [04:12] Another argument I've heard is that thing like 'money' and the 'economy' exist
as they are because of some constraints that are present in the natural world and so those constraints, eh, cause certain behaviors << it's called thermodynamics
bagehot: Another argument I've heard is that thing like 'money' and the 'economy' exist
as they are because of some constraints that are present in the natural world and so those constraints, eh, cause certain behaviors
decimation: bagehot: do you think the supply of money must expand
as an economy 'grows'?
mircea_popescu: but, the discussion is in the logs, you can traverse it by searching. prolly a good start
as any :
cazalla: asciilifeform, even if Ts wasn't proprietary, it'd be pointless to download
as you can't just connect and chat with them
BingoBoingo: <danielpbarron> and come to think of it, bingo's laptop might also now be illegal to export << So long
as Open Source perfectly reasonable to export.
danielpbarron: i duplicated the results on the cheaper model
as well
assbot: Logged on 13-03-2015 13:51:02; nubbins`: tl;dr schizophrenia isn't
as romantic
as you think
assbot: Logged on 13-03-2015 13:35:44; gabriel_laddel: my point is that chinese
as is must go away if they want to work with computers
assbot: Logged on 13-03-2015 13:18:07; nubbins`: because it lets you ignore yourself
as the cause of all your problems?
mircea_popescu: what really burns them is the football team issue. they don't wish to not be cattle per se. they're just pissed that they were "come to expect" that THEY were the chosen people on account of, why the fuck not eh. and whenever it doesn't work
as they "came to expect", it is clearly the case that really it works, but for someone else, so... whoddunit ?!?! (not them!)
mircea_popescu: carusu is the sicilian word for boy. it derives off latin carens (missing)
as in, inexperienced.
mircea_popescu: t know,
as aptly butch has observed : their names don't mean anything.
mircea_popescu: some profile pics, let it go. not everyone's
as socially awkward / sexually repressed
as you, to use their feet in etsy shoes / anon ducklings
as an avatar.
mircea_popescu: "The Bitcoin protocol, when implemented correctly, has a degree of sybil resistance when it comes to partitioning and double-spend risk
as an attacker must get _all_ your connections for those attacks, but this kind of activity can really violate user privacy since privacy attacks don't need to get all your connections; especially for SPV nodes which liberally broadcast their wallet addresses to nodes that they're usin
assbot: Logged on 13-03-2015 12:34:36; cazalla: worse, TaT masquerades
as bitcoinassets on it and is a mod to boot
assbot: Logged on 13-03-2015 12:33:18; cazalla: b) some random cunt is talking about launching an altcoin whereby he "destroys an oz of gold on webcam"
as proof of burn for creation of his altcoin
davout: make form, use requestbin
as action, *poof*
mircea_popescu: weird. "for your convenience, we have packed five half-resistence resistors separately, to bring the average to a 5% tolerance
as you required"
nubbins`: cazalla:worse, TaT masquerades
as bitcoinassets on it and is a mod to boot <<< ...
nubbins`: gabriel_laddel:Does anyone take issue with me describing the lordship
as "the peerage" and #-assets
as "earth's premiere commercial forum"? <<< ...
☟︎ danielpbarron: even using the sd card for os << not necessary; the whole thing can go on the same hard drive
as the blockchain
nubbins`: it's a lesson disguised
as a novel 8)
nubbins`: i've thought about release above-quoted tome
as an ebook, but it's such a pain
nubbins`: tl;dr schizophrenia isn't
as romantic
as you think
☟︎ nubbins`: but it was too late for all that, the buggers held full control, so all rooms are now hospital. the candy cart of medication wheels behind me, manacled by psychotic chains. lines of divison have been dissolved. this letter is also spoken live in the minds of all others. medication is food. Rx is smoked. food is smoked. all useless
as light dripped from bulbs into splashing puddles of light on the floor. vast communities of bulky orderlies.
