ben_vulpes: <mircea_popescu> and yet you savages still don't have cunt basins
as a regular fixture, amirite ? << why's the shower so inadequate?
BingoBoingo: The goal in contemporary American home architecture
as espoused by HGTV is concealing from visitors the set of bathrooms used for actual bathroom functions

mircea_popescu: is to say,
as the Court does today, that all executions of the mentally retarded are so morally repugnant
as to violate our national standards of decency, surely the consensus it points to must be one that has set its righteous face against all such executions. Not 18 States, but only seven18% of death penalty jurisdictionshave legislation of that scope."
mircea_popescu: "The Court pays lipservice to these precedents
as it miraculously extracts a national consensus forbidding execution of the mentally retarded, ante, at 12, from the fact that 18 Statesless than half (47%) of the 38 States that permit capital punishment (for whom the issue exists)have very recently enacted legislation barring execution of the mentally retarded. Even that 47% figure is a distorted one. If one
mircea_popescu: only for
as long
as the concept that "people can have ideas" and "tim swhatever knows hopw normal debates work"
jurov: lol.
as if one cannot fail and write about it?
mircea_popescu: <asciilifeform> thestringpuller: also remember that the 'magic' of gavincoin was that it will work on existing hw, so long
as 'everybody agrees' to throw away blockchain history and surrender << this, especially.
thestringpuller: why again should I be convinced this computer will be "okay" running larger blocks when it can barely keep up
as is...
mircea_popescu: "I'm an 18 year old currently in my first semester of college at UNM (Studying medicine). All my life I've been a very good girl, pro-feminist all my life, I was in the girl scouts growing up, I got straight
As, I don't drink or go out to parties. I found your tumblr the other week and at first I was offended, I don't see how any woman would subject herself to such treatment. I've visited your page multiple times since
mircea_popescu: yeah.
as fiat becomes worth less and less in actual money, that problem will slowly melt.
mircea_popescu: it's about plainest morals : please consider if your duty to yourself,
as a free man worth two shits doesn't require you to publish all the shit you know.
decimation: in the usa, 'freelance computer guys' are treated by the tax authorities
as tax cheats
hegemoOn: and even getting money back
as far
as they were paying for a service to a company they owns
mircea_popescu: so it's "about 3% out of the first 100k that self identify
as female and self identify
as under 30yo". for all we know two thirds of that are all labrador retrievers.
jurov: 3.21579699 BTC minus 1.9624272 BTC substracted due to last month's credit, for a final total of 1.25336979 BTC to be paid
as dividends for MPEx(sic!) shares this month.
mircea_popescu: nobody actually knows. that pic is about
as old
as cable modems, but its context lost to the world.
BingoBoingo: Just because it doesn't compile
as offered doesn't mean and can't be beat into it.
ben_vulpes: Whenever it came time for his daily bowl of soup he would look around for the nearest "girl" and ask if she would fetch it to him. It did not matter if she was the cook, an engineer, or the president of the company. I once asked a female engineer who had just been a victim of this if it bothered her. "Yes, it really annoys me," she said. "On the other hand, he is the only one who ever explained quantum mechanics to me
as if I could
decimation: yeah that makes sense.
as I recall
as a youth in school, it was used
as kind of a proto-powerpoint
decimation: I certainly can describe a bolt
as 'Hex bolts, Stainless steel 18-8, 1/4"-20'' and have a pretty good idea of what I mean
decimation: I mean that the brain's language 'co-processor' (
as ascii desribed it) can be used
decimation: lol asciilifeform >"If this strikes you
as absurd, does it strike you
as even more absurd that people claim something to be a problem when its "solution" is
as obvious
as it is ridiculous? (Or is it really that ridiculous? Farm subsidies exist. Why not FarmVille subsidies?)"
ben_vulpes: they're not real keys,
as far
as i care.
ben_vulpes: ruby
as necessary to unfuck other people's mistakes.
ben_vulpes: <asciilifeform> use the expected values for your machine. << ahahaha "expected values" ahaha
as if
decimation: "The movement against public shaming had gained momentum in 1787, when Benjamin Rush, a physician in Philadelphia and a signer of the Declaration of Independence, wrote a paper calling for its demise — the stocks, the pillory, the whipping post, the lot. “Ignominy is universally acknowledged to be a worse punishment than death,” he wrote. “It would seem strange that ignominy should ever have been adopted
as a milder punishment
decimation: She chuckled to herself
as she pressed send on this last one, then wandered around Heathrow’s international terminal for half an hour, sporadically checking her phone. No one replied, which didn’t surprise her. She had only 170 Twitter followers."
decimation: yeah
as if people are going to pay usg to fly their 'aircraft' at 500 feet within sight of the operator
BingoBoingo: Red is one of the worst imagineable for the purpose. It does nothing to break the context of the situation and fits in too many contexts appropirate to the situation. It's like a trailer park feeding trough using icecream
as its safe word to get gluttons to leave.
hanbot: mircea_popescu not inasfar
as unactivated virii implies knowable potential
decimation: except for the part where they pass it off
as a fair election

mod6:
as you just proved, it'll make it past it sometimes, and sometimes not. im sure there is some sort of reason for this, but we dont know what it is at this time.
mod6: aight. so yeah, stay tuned.
as soon
as I get anything working with static libs and static linking of the output object files from the bitcoin source base, I'll give an update.
thestringpuller: if it gets current blockheight, i'll open up ports and run this
as my full node instead of 0.8 version was tricked in to using.
thestringpuller: it's also slow
as molasses and they want to increase the size of these blocks?
trinque: redid the thing with the bootstrap torrent on the server, and it's on mid december
as of now
cazalla: danielpbarron: he's never worked for a living in his life <<< maybe he can get a job
as a postman because he never fails to deliver
Adlai: think of the sarcasm
as a barrier of entry against butthurtion
benjamindees: I've seen a couple of people say similar things. It seemed natural that if you are for a 1MB limit, you would be for sidechains
as an avenue for growth or at least to keep the alts at bay.
Adlai: note that for the "real bitcoin", this just has the effect of further distinguishing it
as such, if the current mess didn't do that well enough
mircea_popescu: which is fine, they can struggle for
as long
as they can gather the energy.
xanthyos: i am only in bitcoin
as a hobbyist poker player, i love obama
Adlai was just discussing death threats yesterday... they are
as effective against humans
as they are ineffective against superhumans
Adlai: it's an interesting idea, although i must say that -
as i understand it without having read the entire paper - it's too deterministic for my tastes. i kinda like the idea of deliberately random behavior.
mircea_popescu: maybe better take it
as "this man won't give me for free stuff that people might get if they pay upwards of six figures in fees. my feeble attempts to defeat his defences through 9yo discoursive tactics are probably going to fare about
as well
as 9yos generally fare against multi million dollar concerns."
Adlai: mircea_popescu: i'll take that
as a "haven't heard/cared about it", which is still a datapoint
Adlai: when you designed mpex's 'quantum' matching engine, did you consider proposals of the "frequent batch auction" persuasion? i have no stake in this idea, just collecting opinions on it,
as i form my own
mircea_popescu: more like, "saving the environment" is just
as silly
as any one thing a bunch of useless, stupid and ignorant entities that only exist because nobody ground uncle sam into the ground yet could ever do.
Adlai: the tl;dr is that "saving the environment" is silly because the environment exists with or without its "savers", and that the real meaning behind "saving the environment" is "keeping this environment
as hospitable
as possible to us"
Adlai: i'm not convinced that "nature"
as a whole can be considered an "econ"
mircea_popescu: it's simple : inasmuch
as your definition of "human" difers from "econ", it doesn't exist.
mircea_popescu: rational incentives don't enter into it.
as far
as derpy social studies types are concerned, all effort available should go into that.
mircea_popescu:
as far
as bitcoin is concerned, there's no point to energy other than mining.
BingoBoingo: The point of this project is to provide a full node that has an explicit goal of supporting the needs of SPV app developers,
as well
as a place to try out more experimental changes in general. Through the course of 2013 I feel that the upstream Bitcoin Core project has become a relatively unpredictable place and I no longer feel sure that we can improve SPV mode or even that they will continue to support it at all. Bitcoin XT will

danielpbarron: and if it sees such a drive, it won't try to boot from the attached sata drive; so you can then fdisk
as needed
danielpbarron: so uh.. it comes
as little suprise to me that my pogo using a solid state drive is significantly faster than the one using a regular laptop hard drive
Adlai already bookkeeps in btc, but he lets the bot mostly do
as it sees fit, which means it travels across the entire range of all-in-btc to all-in-fiat, should the market take it there
