BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: likbez
takes
time unless a less ruminant
thinker
than myself writes likbez... (hint)
gernika: If
that is correct, how does
the cycle repeat? Or does it?
gernika: So Buterin's Waterfall works like
this: Buterin announces scam coin sale. Chumps give him btc, bringing down
the price of BTC which he
then sells for fiat. Weak hands
then sell btc for fiat on
the market out of fear. Correct?
supay: interesting.. will have
to go
through
that as well
BingoBoingo: People with Bitcoin pay Overstock.com for schlock and Overstock sells
the BTC automagically, feeding Buterin's waterfall
gribble: Bitstamp BTCUSD

supay: there was another mention of a reason for
the price drop - a lot of companies now accepting bitcoins. but how does
that work?
BingoBoingo: Seriously BTC is a hard business
this year. Jurov is surviving, barely, on 10 customers
BingoBoingo: In Bitcoin you have
to realize
the
thing shortly went from soft adversaries (Trendon Shavers)
to hard adversaries (Obola and Ebama) very quickly
supay: the logs you linked me
to have a mention of how
the FBI seize of
the SikRoad BTC might be a cause.. i've heard a lot of people saying
the same, would
that be nearly
true?
supay: oh, okay..
thats seems sad considering a lot of people were expecting it
to jump up all of a sudden..
supay: haha, im only here
to get your opinions and possible explanations for
the same.. i dont have
the know how
to write a paper etc
BingoBoingo: <supay> what do you guys
think about
the speculations?
that 1btc will value anywhere between $10k
to $40k or even more by
the end of
this year? <<
This year questionable, Next year possible, but work on your knife fighting skills
BingoBoingo: Yeah, I'm working on a summary, if you can beat e
to it submit it for publiccation
supay: what do you guys
think about
the speculations?
that 1btc will value anywhere between $10k
to $40k or even more by
the end of
this year?
supay: okay,
that seems understandable.
BingoBoingo: <supay> and what
the reasons might be for
the drop << Buterin's waterfall
supay: and what
the reasons might be for
the drop
supay: i was wondering if
the bitcoin price will really rise again..
decimation: but also after
the first world war, when
the same population was starved and forced into debt slavery
decimation: after
the war was over, but yeah firebombing counts
too. Of course
the source for
that is "slaughterhouse five"
decimation: gernika: I guess I was more referring
to
the intentional policies of starvation and mass population displacement
BingoBoingo: Anglos Firebommed and scared defectors with
the "Russian
threat", Russians at
the
time offered "Stalin"
gernika: I would not be surprised at
the gap in my knowledge given my public education.
gernika: interesting -
the movie I saw was more about what
the russians did
to germany after
the war. Wrt anglos are we
talking firebombing?
assbot: Logged on 19-10-2014 04:55:38; asciilifeform: what
the anglos did
to germany, will be remembered as -the- 20th c. crime.
assbot: Logged on 19-10-2014 04:50:50; asciilifeform:
there were fully-functional german hamlets in, even, kazakhstan
assbot: Flight and expulsion of Germans (1944–50) - Wikipedia,
the free encyclopedia
gernika: decimation any good sources
to read about it? Seen some german movies about
the immediate post ware period.
decimation: most folks
today never learn about
the complete Apocalypse
that faced german people after wwii
cazalla: i dunno full story
tbh, opa was in
the wehrmacht and we have photos of him as an officer but my father reckons he wasn't an officer despite
the photos and shit
decimation: cazalla: were
they fleeing
the post-wwii misery of germany?
cazalla: well, his family being his parents at
the
time and not me obviously
decimation: I've heard
that
there is quite a large number of germans in australia
BingoBoingo: <decimation> what I find interesting is - why do
these poor indian kids with a 'work ethic' really want
to come
to
the us? as I posted here a few days ago, odds are
that
they will end up in some kind of debt slavery (aside from
their indentured servitude) << Because
the previous generation used
their surplus income
to establish petit dynasties

cazalla: australians really hate boat people which is amusing given so many of us actually came by boat, my parents included, 50-60 years back, it's like
they don't want
to be reminded
BingoBoingo: <decimation> I guess I just wish for a hopeless outcome, which is
that
the us will not become (or already mostly is) a
third world country <<
Twas inevitable. Blame
the WASPs
decimation: I guess I just wish for a hopeless outcome, which is
that
the us will not become (or already mostly is) a
third world country
cazalla: decimation, yeah, if you
try
to come by boat but come by plane and it's easy
cazalla: and i was not much a fan of
them until i lived with one indian guy and he made
the best hainanese chicken so all is forgiven
decimation: I
thought australia had very strict immigration rules
BingoBoingo: Networking, priveledge, reciptority,
these are old mechanics.
There were Roman Charioteers who earned more from sport
than A-Rod could imagine
cazalla: the indians come
to australia on a 457 visa
to work at places like mcdonalds
BingoBoingo: <decimation> I'm sure
the doctors, lawyers, etc would be more
than happy
to ensure
that poor indian kids learn computers and not us law << Of course, even with
the obamacare bezzel established families in medicine have a strong advantage
BingoBoingo: That is why stan doesn't atm have a ranch and
to bitches
trained in rifle-fu
decimation: I'm sure
the doctors, lawyers, etc would be more
than happy
to ensure
that poor indian kids learn computers and not us law
decimation: well,
there's little doubt in my mind
that
the reason h1b visas are 'tech'
targeted is because engineers have
the least political pull in
the us
BingoBoingo: ^ Depends on specialty. My brother who cam from
the same poor ass lineage i did is now in Dentistry with his SJW wife and adorable dog
gernika: BingoBoingo You have
to realize
the h1b
thing is USia's last defense against
the doctor, retailer, doctor pipeline << even doctors and lawyers are slaves in
the US now, due
to student loan debt.
assbot: History and
Timeline | Circle K: Convenience store chain providing quick stop services including fuel, food, snacks, drinks, cigarettes, beer and our world-famous Polar Pop
assbot: From Germany
to Mexico: How America’s source of immigrants has changed over a century | Pew Research Center
BingoBoingo: decimation: Only on paper,
the real power is
there are always poor kids in India with dreams and a work ethic
gernika: The goal doesn't have
to be meaningful. It just has
to be achieved.
decimation: BingoBoingo:
the real
thing
that enables
this are "family relocation" visas
gernika: Yes. Everything and anything for
the goal.
BingoBoingo: And I'm not
talking about
the Urban
tradition of Arab shops, I'm
talking about motherfucking Circle K, king of
the Midwestern convenience market
BingoBoingo: <decimation> BingoBoingo:
the question is - do
their children have
the same work ethic/. << For a generation at least, but
there's always more people with a work ethic who can sustain
the system.
decimation: BingoBoingo:

BingoBoingo: <gernika> Silicon valley companies are full of h1b slaves << You have
to realize
the h1b
thing is USia's last defense against
the doctor, retailer, doctor pipeline
BingoBoingo: <mircea_popescu>
the locals are haetful. because he outworks
them. << Generally
the way
this work in US is eventually Indian family produces doctor in US,
they use
their surplus
to bringing in hardworking family members willing
to put all effort into running fuelstation/convenience stores, shopkeep cousins succeed, finance next generation of doctors, pale natives bitch
that people were willing
to work at shopkeeping
gernika: I like
the h1b worker as slave idea. Everything makes so much more sense now.
decimation: they hold gym class on
the mall as I recall
mircea_popescu: imagine
this. romanian rural population, making ~2-3k a year,
thinks
themselves better.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform a slave is a slave.
the responsibility for his actions is his master's.
BingoBoingo: <decimation>
the numbers I have seen are
that ~%80 of
the 'skilled workers' brought in on h1b visas have completely phony credentials << Difference is Usians with phony credentials
tend
to get along better at work parties
decimation: they refuse
to say it, but
tacitly allow it
mircea_popescu: just, at a skill
the puritanical state refuses
to name. "slavery" say.
mircea_popescu: decimation not so.
the chinese guy in his example was well skilled
decimation: the numbers I have seen are
that ~%80 of
the 'skilled workers' brought in on h1b visas have completely phony credentials
mircea_popescu: i don't happen
to care
that usians believe sucking cock is not something
to be good at
mircea_popescu: i
think you miss my meaning. " if some sort of either efficiency or adherence
to reality"
