mircea_popescu: the way
this guy cuts down on all
the dumb idlers
that imagine whatever, b-a is just another channel, can autopilot in is so fucking great srlsy.
cazalla: i wonder if it's a psychological
tactic
to release his name at
this
time, maybe he feels media gives him recognition and being
tired, is content with
that and gives up
cazalla: looks like
that was used for Preet Bharara

the authorities)"

that dedicated
to
the cause if he didn't even have his own flag

to be made, and made often and made well.
cazalla: he won't
talk
to em, not a chance, heads are gonna roll either way by looks of it
mircea_popescu: his case is unexceptional. obama couldn't argue why
the usg should even exist either.
mircea_popescu: australian prime minister basically is admitting de facto
that a) he stands for a lie and b) he's
too stupid
to be able
to argue for it persuasively.
mircea_popescu: or is he going
to *pretend* like he gives a shit about anything but his fantasy ?
mircea_popescu: so is

then some freenode bot instantly removes it
davout: since
the cloaking doesn't work
davout: mircea_popescu: seems like
the welcome-ddos is another barrier
to entry

the matching engine has seen from an order book query
adlai: where you can have an order placed/cancelled message processed by
the API server, but a subsequent order book query shows
that
the order matcher hasn't yet seen
the order
adlai: bitfinex seems
to have
the same kind of uncertainty as mpex
davout: well, actually it's
the cloak
that doesn't actually work with webchat
davout: looks like it prevents anyone from webchat
to connect
davout: the ddos on connect
thing seems
to still be going on
fluffypony: why would you not just use curl
to send
the RPC commands?
ben_vulpes: is anyone aware of interesting hiccups around using bitcoin
to send rpc commands
to a bitcoin daemon running on a different host?

their brush with IStralia?

the land as belonging
to any particular man?

than

the loan. It's like "really"? << when are car loans not ever underwater?

the first coinbase yet?
ben_vulpes: leastaways i've yet
to see
that work out for anyone. more often
than not hiring leadership is a cover for
the sharks
to move in and kick founding
teams out.
ben_vulpes: <thestringpuller> instead he says, "You people don't know how
this works" in reference
to criticism of his poor decision making process. <<
thestringpuller clearly doesn't understand how
the world works
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: Have some sort of windows install for crapware. Maybe not for archeological purposes, but everyone with a Windows box seems
to use it for
the purpose of running crapware.
They just aren't usually aware of it.
ben_vulpes: <BingoBoingo> It would be interesting if a large portion of humanity couldn't make it

badon: That's important USA history
that is not in USA history books.
badon: So,
the government started doing other
things
to encourage farmers
to farm without making
them fear losing
their livelihood if
they have a bad crop or experience a depression.
badon: "bought
the farm" became a euphemism for death after farmland seizures by
the government and banks during
the USA's Great Depression.
The seizures led
to food price increases and starvation. When
the government
tried
to undo
the damage
they caused by reselling
the farms, no one wanted
to buy
them.
decimation: my understanding is
that
the price of agricultural land has been rising due
to
the influx of wall st. money
decimation: yeah "bought
the farm" is generally an aviation expression
BingoBoingo: "bought
the farm" I mean maybe I've heard it, but it isn't
too common
BingoBoingo: I haven't heard it and I'm in
the US surrounded by farms
badon: There is no such
thing as private land ownership in jurisdictions
that
tax ownership of land.
badon: "bought
the farm" is an idiom for death in
the USA.
decimation: BingoBoingo: and of course
the farmers are paid by usg
to farm or not
