danielpbarron: i'm having
trouble finding
the article now, perhaps someone can help me
danielpbarron: this was explained very well by
the great MPOE-PR, or as we know her, hanbot
BingoBoingo: DPR, literally
the guy who wasn't good enough
to sling dope as a profession
hdbuck: i
think so, yea. even Karpeles had an non negligible effect on bitcoin.
danielpbarron: seriously, do you
think any of
those groups have any effect on bitcoin?
hdbuck: so whatcha gonna do when coinbase/TBF/bitpay/bitfury/KNC/ and all
the usg rapist unite
to promote
the fork?
danielpbarron: this is from a "donator." doesn't
that mean he gave
thermos 50 bitcoin or something?
danielpbarron: lol cazalla re:
the video you posted "can you define definitive?"
Adlai: hdbuck: just don't pledge allegiance
to "usg and FIAT" and you'll be fine
hdbuck: danielpbarron ahah sure, not
that i have much
to say anyway. just lurking
Adlai: although i guess
the correct plugal would be pogī
Adlai: tbh for both of
the last links
cazalla: mircea_popescu: But legal driving limit is usually .08% <<< here, 0.05, learner or provisional driver? 0! bad luck if your medication put you over
the limit!

mircea_popescu: read one police report of crime x, you've read half of
them. read
ten, you've (practically) read
them all. clinical psychology is only interesting
to
the patently insane, as a practice. otherwise all
the notes say endlessly
the same five or six
things.
there just aren't
that many
things
to say.
☟︎ mircea_popescu: a lot of neuropathy
to "explain" and justify it all, sure. but google can sort
through all
that pretty fast, especially because it being psychogenic rather
than rational it is dreadfully boring and entirely predictable.
mircea_popescu: now imagine
that,
through
technological advance,
there is actually no real job for any of
the kids
to do. so jimmy does not quit. and consequently jodi has nobody
to marry. so she does not. so
twenty years later,
they are still in
that garage, still with
that guitar.
mircea_popescu: but
this can not result in any substantial change, because more effort applied
to faulty premise.
mircea_popescu: and in fact more funding is issued by
the long suffering parents, either directly (as is
the case in romania) or
through collective buying (the state ->taxes->etc in
the us).
mircea_popescu: the process is wholly self-referential. it is in no sense different from
the goings on in any insane asylum. you are essentially asking "ok,
the sanitariums of
the world hold a supply of at least 5000 napoleons. why is
there no glorious history being produced ?"
mircea_popescu: which should be informative. i've never spent
two years planning on how
to fix a window without discovering it really is a door, at some point during all
that.
mircea_popescu: if
that happens im fucking defecting, because srsly. finding just one cockroach in
the kitchen is one
thing, but here we have found a cockroach inside
the cockroach and no sign of any kitchens.
mircea_popescu: imagine you were going
to war in afghanistan and discovered
the centcom
thought afghanistan is actually in zanzibar ?
mircea_popescu: dude i dunno, if i spend my
time planning how
to murder obama and fail
to find out he died
three years prior as a side product
mircea_popescu: he failed, at
the end of
the reporting period,
to have met
the bare minimum level of achievement of finding out
that
the girl was actually working.
mircea_popescu: one particular schmuck formulated plans for at least 24 months, at
the rate of one a week,
to
TALK
TO
this particular whore.
mircea_popescu: well im sure
they all maintained metabolic balance
throughout.
mircea_popescu: just because it's easier (and cheaper)
to
type into box
than
throw paint at canvas does not mean more anything ever gets made.
mircea_popescu: a
total of less
than 100 hours ever got put into any actually existent item
that could be burned for instance.
mircea_popescu: ok. let's put it in perspective. at some point i ended up peripherally involved in
the "Art" scene by virtue of fucking in it.
mircea_popescu: i don't
think you actually understand how
the world works.
joecool: google moved away from unique strings over
the past few years... moved
to signals, will match synonyms and areas
to a query
punkman: purpose being "find out where
that other guy spams links, so you can do it
too"
mircea_popescu: yeah. big business, giving idiots in cubicals something
to do with
their
time
that looks more srs bzns
than facebook
punkman: there's at least a dozen of
those mega-crawlers
mircea_popescu: believe it or not, google can actually recognise useful new papers from shitty new papers better
than "peer review" committees can.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform nah, in one sentence it'd be "for
the sheer frequency with which rare associations
that match
types
they only see in quality
text are seen here"
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform all motives are questionable.
that's kinda what a motive is : "he's not doing it for me, he's doing it for himself"
mircea_popescu: original of course doesn't mean what
the marginal retard "trying
to make it online" imagines.
mircea_popescu: you know all
those "how
to spam google ? ORIGINAL CONTENT!!1" advicey bits ?
they're actually quite on point.
mircea_popescu: google is a major contributor. you can do wonderful
things by sorting, word densities, etc etc.
mircea_popescu: to a large degree it's
the silent progress
that has been happening in
thefield of machine processing of human
text for
the past... 20 years ?
mircea_popescu: <asciilifeform> a few hrs ago. << yes. we dominate google mostly because we say interesting
things.
punkman: well google loves
the log apparently
mircea_popescu: i would also guess
this person owns more weapons
than remaining fingers (firecracker accidents), and
they have more
telescopes
than barrel notches.
mircea_popescu: this entirely predicated on
the very simple 'lives in argentina -> was born
there -> planet of hats'
mircea_popescu: lol in unrelated news, somebody just cussed me
the fuck out because i am a wetback piece of shit left leaning commie.
