mircea_popescu:
as more an' more cases of idiot women "in tech" blowing things up float to the surface like
as many turds, the actual women in actual tech have increasingly more problems they don't actually need.
mircea_popescu: so i find that veronique chick
as the first source of the ghost vulnerability, im all about to go into a rand
as to how see, THIS is the sort of actual women in actual tech
trinque: asciilifeform: I'm considering jumping ship to a BSD soon
as I feel like it's an informed decision
mircea_popescu: anyway, if you want to hang someone for the horrible state of publishing and/or us business culture these days, she's
as good
as anyone.
punkman: "blocked from the network by their peers for
as a little
as a day for minor infractions such
as slowing down SNet with file-sharing outside prescribed hours, with lifetime bans for violations like distributing pornography."
mircea_popescu: <asciilifeform> 'the actual rich'
as a monolithic whole is, i dare say, a fictional trope
as well << what, and i suppose the island of beautiful women doens't exist, either ?!
assbot: Logged on 16-01-2015 04:45:19; mircea_popescu: decimation it's
as fucking unbriliant
as a lump of coal. at the end of the week, instead of having a decent steak and a game of bridge with intellgient people,
decimation: heh yeah might
as well buy personal town for his toys
assbot:

mircea_popescu: mats: its hilarious that anyone wanted to pay so much
as 1mn for blockchain.info << you are thinking money
as in, someone earned / saved these. that's not what's happening there : they're spending money that was simply created by yellen / conjured up by accounting fraud / etc.
mircea_popescu: because back then the average american understood himself
as a peniless tramp, that's fortunate to even be allowed in europe at all.
BingoBoingo: The Rum fountain. No author appears to be a forensic pyschiatrist
as he self describes.
TheNewDeal: BingoBoingo this definitely is one of the article I was reading > I remember seeing the receptors lined up
as a fountain
mats: i was under the impression most here believed the fracture of the Internet
as it is now is inevitable
trinque: it's not
as though they confine those things to a single state
mircea_popescu: <ben_vulpes> can't say
as i get it. either one owns btc or one doesn't. << one either owns real estate or doesn't. where does that leave the teenagers, inhabiting comfortable middle class homes they can't afford, and not even having to suck cock for it, like they will a decade down the road ?
ben_vulpes: can't say
as i get it. either one owns btc or one doesn't.
ben_vulpes:
as experiment, go try getting a randomly selected semi technically savvy person to take a bitcoin.
gribble: mrstickball was last seen in #bitcoin-assets 18 weeks, 4 days, 10 hours, 47 minutes, and 8 seconds ago: <Mrstickball> they are
as well, AFAIK
ben_vulpes: <mircea_popescu> it's the only way to do time. << i've been saying there's no such thing
as time for a while now, only the length of the longest chain...
trinque: in my experience the rpi skews clock
as some function of cpu load
mircea_popescu: mod6 yeh just
as soon
as bitcoind-unbraindamaged is ready... in it goes!
mircea_popescu: <gurlwest> its possible but there is such a thing
as responsibility, and i feel its mine to point out that Zyklon B is highly offensive and brings this place into disrepute
mircea_popescu: if you
as much
as sneeze it all comes crumbling down, and yet he's stupidly put all that effort into it... like a blind seal or something.
mircea_popescu: "Your statement that the new fork won't succeed is nothing but speculation, your guess is only worth
as much
as anyone else's. No one can claim with any certainty that they know what's going to happen." << late to that party.
mircea_popescu: danielpbarron funny hpw that doomad dude neglects to consider the point that "we can all use it"
AS IT IS. unless we ALL agree to use it a different way, it is NOT HAPPENING.
mircea_popescu: "social and political revolution" = more of the same shit ; "worshipping at the altar of money" = actual social and political revolution. in the proper sense,
as in, the opposite of evolution.
mircea_popescu: "There are those whose only concern is worshiping at the altar of money and turning a profit, whereas others see Bitcoin
as a tool for social and political revolution."
gribble: Nick 'TheNewDeal', with hostmask 'TheNewDeal!~TheNewDea@unaffiliated/thenewdeal', is identified
as user 'TheNewDeal', with GPG key id DFBEC17DF96DFB77, key fingerprint 468950118F292A0AA73BCCC3DFBEC17DF96DFB77, and bitcoin address None
mircea_popescu: Adlai: in case it fell between the cracks - i'm always interested in 'alpha testers', especially if they see it
as a service rather than a freebie that a sucker on irc will walk them through for his own warm fuzzies << heh the problem of "contests" and "giveaways" etc.
thestringpuller: hanbot: "Lets be nice
as possible to the girl and maybe she'll touch me even though I'm an awkward neck beard who needs more rejection"
hanbot:
as though being turned down to your face is something to be avoided at all absurdities
hanbot: mats> dunno that it has anything to do with shyness. more like... people have become more alone in spite of glowing rectangles supposedly networking us together << it has everything to do with shyness tho, so long
as what tinder's doing is removing the basic requirement of walking up to someone and asking if they'd like to drink/dance/fuck/whatever
assbot: Facebook: Android users in developing countries can now use "Facebook Lite"
as a simplified version of the social media networking app. ... (

Adlai: 'want' is a strong word. i'm suggesting it
as a possibility, to an intrepid [General] Manager
BingoBoingo: Adlai: Well, SPV
as the powerrangers say it now tends to mean the Bloom filter derp. If enough space is budgeted for the nodes though "address history" type arrangement like electrum server could work if electrum server did not rival bitcoind itself
as a hog.
Apocalyptic: I don't know there is such a thing
as "ethical spying", the whole formula must be a joke
assbot: Logged on 13-11-2014 16:38:23; asciilifeform: Adlai: darcs <<
as a military man, perhaps you are familiar with systems that could be automated easily, but aren't? e.g., ru nuke sub controls
Adlai: in case it fell between the cracks - i'm always interested in 'alpha testers', especially if they see it
as a service rather than a freebie that a sucker on irc will walk them through for his own warm fuzzies
Adlai: in a sense, it's currently offered
as a service for some fee - my time in dealing with your (not personally anybody in this channel) bullshit
jurov: why not just offer scalpl
as service for some fee?
davout: i see it
as a problem in the sense that they're not really fungible
davout: if you take a bond out of circulation you refund it
as (amount in exchange acct)/100
Adlai: by structure
as a bond, you mean - anybody deposits the amount they want, and has p/l tracked (and dividends paid) for that amount?
davout: unless i'm mistaken equity would be irrelevant if you structure that
as a bond, amirite
Adlai: i'd rather the accounts belong to the financier(s). they lend reputation - people trust them not to run off more than they'd trust me, and they lend their credibility to account statements. my role would be setting up scalpl, possibly maintenance, analysis, development - but on a case by case basis,
as seen fit by the financier(s) and/or shareholders
Adlai: there are a bunch of variables in this arrangement, such
as - who has what control of which accounts
Adlai: re IV - art is neither dead nor dying, but tastes change, and the financial incentives about them... maybe if it becomes less profitable overall, there'll be less crap commercialized art such
as pop music or koons balloons
Adlai: i wasn't bringing this up
as "look at coinbase, they're doing something!", but
as "maybe i can help your thing do its stuff better" (setting aside the bit about deedbot doubling
as a faucet, which works fine in the current method)
assbot: gloomdoom comments on Poverty Inc. argues that Wall Street and the banking industry’s portrayal of "business
as usual" is undermining our democracy, shattering the lives of working class families and the poor, while endangering the very environmental balance of the planet. ... (

Adlai says, deedbot can spend half
as much coin and create zero
as much pollution; if there's interest, he can review and sign the code doing it
punkman:
as per asciilifeform's suggestion ^
hanbot: anyway, ludicrous
as the entire thing is, the usnews version irked me with subrug sweeping. there are ways to handle agents, and there are ways to set them on the vendetta path.
hanbot: i somehow doubt it's
as much a piece of hay in the stack
as all that. you piss someone off enough, they'll find what with to beat you.
decimation: mentally prepared for tens of thousands of pushy New Yorkers (I’m also one) or overly emotional Miami Cubans who think they are returning royalty. Waves of carpetbaggers will pour in trying to buy everything that isn’t nailed down with their gringo dollars. Every Cuban exile sees himself
as the next El Presidente."
decimation: "The story also reported that 2014 was the hottest year on record, according to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration and NASA, but did not include the caveat that other recent years had average temperatures that were almost
as high — and they all fall within a margin of error that lessens the certainty that any one of the years was the hottest."
decimation: "
As a result, GISS’s director Gavin Schmidt has now admitted Nasa thinks the likelihood that 2014 was the warmest year since 1880 is just 38 per cent. However, when asked by this newspaper whether he regretted that the news release did not mention this, he did not respond." < lol daily mail
mats: its hilarious that anyone wanted to pay so much
as 1mn for blockchain.info
ben_vulpes: mlol i was talking to BingoBoingo, but same goes for you
as well
pete_dushenski: ideally, from their perspective, cars would crap out
as soon
as the warranty expired
thestringpuller: which I admit is tempting, but in the same sense
as candy is tempting ~_~
thestringpuller: I was thinking of that story I put in the comments of your post. ANd was like "Why not get a volvo? It's gonna outlast most bitcoin businesses while being 30 years old
as is."
pete_dushenski: might
as well complain to the troika that they're pwning the periphery
mircea_popescu: maybe woodcollector should carve a block of boron carbide next,
as a super-show of his super-talents.
mircea_popescu: His mastery of the skill comes not from his ability to "cut around the lines" but in that he can from start to finish carve on some of the most difficult woods in the world to work with. Wood that 80% of your so called "master carvers"
as they claim on youtube and the woodworking forums would not touch in a hundred years because it takes some serious talent to carve them.
jurov: lxr is same incredibly warty crufty stuff
as mailman.. but seems i got it working somehow
