decimation: considering scholars 500 years ago would transcribe the professor
as he lectured, and then take turns reading the only copy of the course text, kids today have it great
mircea_popescu: no it's not. your future ability to obtain work here,
as well
as your ability to benefit from the positive exposure you worked for today strictly hinges on you having a wot acct.
mircea_popescu:
as per
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4z0WmWUT2rM : Plutesc purtat de tate-naripate cu aripi din vata de zahar pe spate ma poatra-n ceruri roz cu nori pufosi pe care fac bule dinozauri somnorosi. In zbor trec buci cu lungi siraguri de margele si-un cartof rustic rastignit pe acadele. Mai trece si un peste de otel si-un urs din muci cu degetel dar iata, hiii, acolo-n zare marea vulva cum rasare.
midnightmagic: ben_vulpes: A user put a forced garbage collection at the wrong spot in Conformal's btcd, and Go segfaulted for no good reason. The code is not
as high-quality
as everyone thinks it is.
MolokoDesk: I was considering that the other night, having a web of trust data structure
as a graph, then different algorithms to assess inheritance or diffusion of trust, various wieghtings of different endorsements, graph topology analysis to detect mutual endorsement cartels, that sort of thing
mircea_popescu: * asciilifeform sees 'golang'
as a mild misbehaviour, but won't try to convince people << be fgucking thankful it's not ruby.
mircea_popescu: we're not getting too far here, lemme write it out
as a formal spec.
mircea_popescu: what one woman takes
as violence another takes
as courtship, a point the state is desperate to hide from the more unfortunate of youze.
mircea_popescu: no ppl i r not insane tyvm stop pming me. i am aware that through the process
as described signatures never get in fact verified and one could create a colision and sign for someone else. this is not a bug, it's a fucking feature. you ARE supposed to check YOURSELF the fucking sigs if you intend to rely on the signed documents. it's the only way to implement this correctly.
MolokoDeck: I think that use of "now" requires a comma in the first sentence, since it's used
as a colloquialism or interjection.
MolokoDeck: at least to do what I'm already doing with it. If this is easier than that then it's
as good
as done.
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo "Now this wasn't particularly notable at all. Now a lot of mining companies are crawling" << you are not allowed to use now
as the first word in two consecutive sentences
MolokoDeck: if security concerns are de minimus I'm ready to finish it
as planned.
MolokoDeck: ok. so you want to use gribble
as an open agent.
MolokoDeck: since the idea of a cryptocontract is that it's unenforceable and the value of performing
as per the contract is one's reputation, it seemed important to make sure the claimed signatories are probably the signatories.
gribble: Nick 'mircea_popescu', with hostmask 'mircea_popescu!~Mircea@pdpc/supporter/silver/mircea-popescu', is identified
as user 'mircea_popescu', with GPG key id 8A736F0E2FB7B452, key fingerprint 6160E1CAC8A3C52966FD76998A736F0E2FB7B452, and bitcoin address None
assbot: Logged on 12-08-2014 03:25:41; gribble: (gpg info [--key|--address] <nick>) -- Returns the registration details of registered user <nick>. If '--key' option is given, interpret <nick>
as a GPG key ID.
MolokoDeck: simply having valid signatures doesn't guarantee that the people who made the contract signed it. which is why I'm using wot
as an authority to find the registered keys for the parties asserted to have been signatories.
MolokoDeck: then the bot would return an SHA256 hash of the document, encode it
as a bitcoin address and make a minimum non-spendable transaction, and log to a repository or blog the document with the sha256 hash and the transaction ID containing the encoded hash, and the block number it's in. It would wait to get a confirmation before doing this so the transaction would be in the blockchain.
MolokoDeck: end of september seems easily doable to have a working version going and available
as source in a GIT repository.
mircea_popescu: MolokoDeck hey. so
as i was telling RagnarDanneskjol, i have no problem covering you if you can deliver the thing by what was it, end of sept ?
BingoBoingo: Even though I already treat the phone
as tainted by design
BingoBoingo: So my phone just got a bunch of MMS messages from phone numbers in Chicago which are registed
as "landlines"
pankkake: the /./ is rewritten
as / by most software, but I'm not doing any special processing to the url
pankkake: oh, that's nice. I was expecting some blurry image
as a result
TomServo: danielpbarron: Not a bad example I suppose. Hard to relay the context in which it was asked..closest I can come to is: Was previously balls deep in the bezzel economy and rejecting of bitcoin and has since 'saw the light',
as it were.
midnightmagic: It works. When teams can't work directly together,
as in NetBSD and OpenBSD, the two teams can cooperate very effectively
as separate teams.
midnightmagic: mircea_popescu: I'm not a bitcoin core dev. Are you saying *I* specifically am behaving badly, or are you using me
as a bitcoin core rep to make comments about them?
pete_dushenski: "De Maistre condemned the 18th-century Enlightenment for having subverted the dominance of traditional religion and traditional elites and paid homage to the public executioner
as the protector of a divinely sanctioned social hierarchy."
Beyond_Bitcoin: with that said, if you look at cryptocurrencies
as towns...bitcoin is one of the only ones with any semblance of infrastructure that accepts it.
mircea_popescu: mircea_popescu: ww2. most of the better frenchmen got shot. << i thought the point of surrendering was precisely so that this didn't happen,
as it did in ww1, n'est pas? <<< maybe. who's to know.
pete_dushenski: Beyond_Bitcoin: the barrier to entry isn't
as low
as it used to be
mircea_popescu: the better explanation is that continental bureaucracy went from inept to able, and so the charles that once was content to just fuck the best whores in venice
as a prize for his winnings
pete_dushenski: mircea_popescu: inasmuch
as bitcoin is a lot more fascist than stalin ever got... i guess prepare for a helluva lot o' love. << cuddles and hugs for everyone!
pete_dushenski: mircea_popescu: ww2. most of the better frenchmen got shot. << i thought the point of surrendering was precisely so that this didn't happen,
as it did in ww1, n'est pas?
pete_dushenski: ben_vulpes: all hail the benevolent socialist state of oregon << ontario, biggest province, has this
as well. since gm and ford went to mexico this is the only thing keeping their head above water.
assbot: Were Going To Enjoy This Cocaine-Fueled Mason Jar Rocket Ride For
As Long
As It Lasts | The Onion - America's Finest News Source
pete_dushenski: "now that mason jars are on top, now that my fellow executives and I are goddamn beverage conquistadors, we’re going to enjoy this cocaine-fueled rocket ride for
as long
as it lasts. I’m blasting off to fucking Mars, dicksuckers, and I’m headed straight through the belly of the goddamn sun!" - James E. Lillie, CEO, Ball Mason Jars
mircea_popescu: *BingoBoingo wonders
as a lifelong USian what professions might exist in actual economies <<< here's one. while sitting idly after a dinner of delicious empanadas, i did the math with the girls. the profit selling them in the street (like people do)'d have been 5 to 10 pesos a pop. any one of them could have easily cleared 2-3-5k pesos a day, more than enough to live by.
decimation: extreme cheapness that strikes many accustomed to old-school industry dealings
as disrespectful."
mircea_popescu: <decimation> the us is too poor to afford leeches who climatederp all day << they doin';t really cost
as much
as all that.
BingoBoingo: <asciilifeform> ^ was used at least
as much for academwankage
as for any military purpose. << Academewagen
BingoBoingo: To most Norte Americanos even UK English is
as foreign to them
as any Romance Language
as the vocaulary on its own is an insurmountable barrier even before approaching grammar
decimation: asciilifeform:
as in machining a plate carrying said bits, or the bits required to control the machine?
BingoBoingo: <mircea_popescu> BingoBoingo inasmuch
as you know that there's a phase 4, you also know your addressing didn't work. << You know sometimes this works a la Dallas. Sometimes this doesn't like Dennis Rodman.
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo inasmuch
as you know that there's a phase 4, you also know your addressing didn't work.
ben_vulpes: i mean i have no clue. perhaps communism is just a thing that the us progpagandacrats came up with to point at to distract the proles from that
as what was going on on the daily at home
BingoBoingo: ben_vulpes: I'm approaching this problem though
as someone dropping into a culture
as a full time n00b
ben_vulpes: BingoBoingo: best
as i can tell, my business' sole selling point is "we're not fucking retarded and won't flake on you
as soon
as something more shiny comes along"
BingoBoingo wonders
as a lifelong USian what professions might exist in actual economies
ben_vulpes: no gold's bullshit
as an index due to its captivity in government vaults and its absurd inflation via notes
mircea_popescu: inasmuch
as bitcoin is a lot more fascist than stalin ever got... i guess prepare for a helluva lot o' love.
BingoBoingo: decimation: The paranoia shapes the discourse though,
as well
as the range of possible public discourse. A the end of the Cold War the Soviet block got to purge that, but the "West" had to redirect it to prop their system up.
mircea_popescu: ben_vulpes but anyway, the point was that inasmuch
as she's not published her cunt her education is quite appalingly poor.
mircea_popescu: yes, on a first listen. but i'm culturally rigid enough to generally regard the entire thing
as you know... little more than children babbling.
ben_vulpes: the gypsy dubstep fusion is about
as close
as it gets right now
ben_vulpes: do you understand black american music
as sung/read/rapped?
mircea_popescu: decimation "scam" only inasmuch
as boeing is tbtf anyway, so without this scam it'd have had to be a different scam.
decimation: I find this to be
as likely
as darth vader abiding by his verbal contract
decimation: asciilifeform: I find it amusing that folks with retirement accounts work so hard to 'shelter' them from taxation under the latest rules,
as if usg would allow one to accumulate wealth without taking it
mircea_popescu:
as an ~urban~ institution mind you. it has nothing to do with italians, other than in the sense italians were at the time the most urban ethnic group in the us
assbot: Romania Joins
As First Bitcoin Foundation Chapter Affiliate in Eastern Europe - Coin Fire
BingoBoingo: cazalla: The GAW thing smells so much of scam and marketing Y
as X
decimation: mircea_popescu: Italians generally have become 'integrated' to the degree that they are no longer looked upon
as minorities
mircea_popescu: power, money and a disinterest in "theory"
as pencilnecks misrepresent it.
mircea_popescu: <decimation> re: yarvin's OV-BDH model: I'm not so sure the mob would count
as Dalit, I was thinking more underclass non-black minorities << why not ?
BingoBoingo: any firearm
as well
as to keep and carry any firearm on your person or vehicle at any time, anywhere. These permits cannot be obtained at Mexican customs and immigration when entering Mexico. They must be obtained in advance and in possession of the bearer before any gun enters Mexico. Once entering Mexico with a gun without previous authorization from the Mexican government, a crime has been committed.[36]""

pete_dushenski: of course, in the winter, the subie is better at everything
as the 350 is parked.
mircea_popescu: so you smell... rotten cum,
as a passing waft. you figure... whatever, my mind's brokt. then you smell it again. eventually you tear the whole house upside down, nothing nowhere. to eventually find it comes from.... an older avocado.
mircea_popescu: pete_dushenski sadly i can't evaluate your contribution because youtube considers it dangerous for minors such
as myself.
mircea_popescu: they're doing some pathetic recouping of old-and-senile buffett now, mostly predicated on denouncing
as heresy his actually useful contributions, two decades prior.
mircea_popescu: most don't get to serve
as cultural reference points. for this reason.
BingoBoingo: <pete_dushenski> twas available on all gm vehicles and even some volkswagens, such
as the phaeton << In undergrad our College's president had a phaeton
as his College supplied vehicle.
pete_dushenski: twas available on all gm vehicles and even some volkswagens, such
as the phaeton
pete_dushenski: mircea_popescu:<asciilifeform> (what's it about in reality? real-time tracking of all meat inventory. and, with a little more magic - your car is own gasenwagen when time comes.) << they already had a pilot for this. amusingly, it was sold
as an expensive ad on for luxury brands. northstar or something. << northstar was the name of a fairly awful gm v8, onstar was their tracking device
BingoBoingo: I've never really liked his argumentative style
as he tries to put forth the grand societal argment relying on mush that seem reminiscent of Urbit "jets"
BingoBoingo: Maybe he works
as a "convenient highlighter"
mircea_popescu: be that
as it may, he's a reasonably useful tool, and in a utilitarian world his idiocy does not define him
as his utility does.
mircea_popescu: so to come round circle, i guess he could be just incredibly fucking stupid,
as dignork proposes. perhaps.
BingoBoingo: Or that H and D are specifically "Blue"
as though he has never been to this "Middle America"
mircea_popescu: but that aside, the relative success of b-a
as compared to every other dickless-shithead run channel on freenode and beyond speaks directly to the superior cultural achievements and ability of the structured society.
