mats_cd03: people need to be specific. sexual assault, or sexual battery?!
mats_cd03: i am always confused when i read these things
bounce: I see mostly repeats about how three anonymous women got hit. nothing about context, intensity, duration, whatever. couldabeen a slap. so, I see mostly words that paint broad strokes at maximum contrast, with no grounding.
nubbins`: very popular canadian media personality beat the shit outta a bunch of women, his friend who happens to be a world-renowned composer wrote a frank essay on the subject, essay is now apparently a media item in itself
mircea_popescu: mostly run as a cheap way to find people who think they should be prosecuted.
BingoBoingo: mats_cd03: To my knowledge it seems the entire ID forgery business is pretty much a USG monopoly
thestringpuller: kk. i'll just later tell. thanks.
bounce: there's a easy fix for that. hit the sack.
thestringpuller: mircea_popescu: have you spoken with chetty today?
long-day: I kinda look like a dumbass right now, I'm aware of that and would rather contain it.
mircea_popescu: i imagine you don't really want that, so, be specific, go into detail, that's how people evaluate you.
mircea_popescu: as a rule of thumb, if you keep doing this vague bs you'll end up on everyone's shitlist.
bounce: so your trade secrets are horrible. what're you, a walking shop of horrors?
mircea_popescu: "it's too small a world to start naming names" << this made exactly zero chance.
long-day: well... all the stuff I told you guys are trade secrets and the fact that I'm doing horribly with the trading so far is just embarassing
bounce: so get'em both in here and have'em introduce themselves
long-day: it's too small a world to start naming names. I'm certain there are people reading this who are friends with them
mircea_popescu: you gotta learn to be specific.
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: I was going off of the porcfest name drop
long-day: The activist community LOVES bitcoin bigtime... the two leading female promoters of bitcoin i'm friends with, but they don't know anything about trading.
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo no lol, he's interviewed nearly everyone who pretends to be involved with btc without actually being involved :D it's how this usually works.
gribble: Error: Google says: Response Status 403: Please use Translate v2. See http://code.google.com/apis/language/translate/overview.html.
asciilifeform studied the life and times of spammers and related fauna professionally for a while
mircea_popescu: you know how everywhere in the civilised world (so therefore, not in the US, excepot for vegas) shops employ young'uns to sit outside and invite people in ?
asciilifeform when addressing colleagues, often prefixes useful tips with 'when we take up spam...'
long-day: I know basically nothing when it comes to this. I've been awake for more than 36 hours straight trying to learn though. And many hours over the last week on top of that. When it comes video editing, marketing, writing blogs, networking and getting access to good interviews I know my stuff... Bitcoin I know very little though. I want to know though. A year ago at Porcfest is when I learned about it. I've interviewed nearly ev
mircea_popescu: lol. so there you go long-day, you can make a fortune affing for bitcoin sites.
jurov: oh and coinroll too on individual basis
jurov: yes coinbr does it too (there's nothing intereesting for chumps, tho)
mircea_popescu: ah that's a point. jurov you also doing coinbr aff ?
jurov: long-day: you know there's a search for bitbet affiliate manager?
asciilifeform: mocking one idiot who shits his pants - sure. until they all shit and the world is buried.
bounce: oh and too many complaints triggered it. but anyway.
assbot: Logged on 26-02-2014 06:23:40; asciilifeform: channelling herr naggum: 'It is like going to a library full of books that took 50 man-years to produce each, inventing a way to cut down the costs to a few man-months per book by copying and randomly improving on other books, and then wondering why nobody thinks your library full of these cheaper books is an inspiration to future authors.'
bounce: nah, got kicked out. 'cuz what hot new shop fresh on the scene can possibly produce thousands of quality apps?
asciilifeform: bounce: set up a cheap shop full of "coders" in pakistan, had them churn out cookie-cutter "apps" with other people's content << lemme guess, lost out competition to the fellow with same stolen appz, but plus malware
mircea_popescu: bounce this sadly passes for "business" and "entrepreneurship" in a world populated by imbeciles running on fumes of "fairness" and "social justice"
long-day: all you do is post to the fanpage, wait 30 min, then like the post, wait 30 more min, like a comment (if someone has commented), 30 min later reply to their comment etc... paying 20 dollars for 100k youtube views is impossible. one of my youtube channels is partnered so it gets twice the adsense payout,. they pay 3-5 dollars per thousand views. 100k views on a video would make me about 400 dollars and 3 times that from the b
bounce: like this guy in -otc, set up a cheap shop full of "coders" in pakistan, had them churn out cookie-cutter "apps" with other people's content, dump on the app store, make five bucks each, sell a million before people catch on his 35k apps on the store are all crap. -- he's a real s/w house, yo.
mircea_popescu: and this of course would be round 2, because wordpress before that, you recall.
mircea_popescu: i could start a web security business just out of the fallout of that one failed ddos.
asciilifeform: and, unrelated, whoever was asking about chain-fork alarm, that's still in the turd. the thing that was nixed was the gavintron.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform here's a fun tidbit : idiot with synflood actually used a bunch of websites to do it. so after some scriptage i'm emailing the owners to fix their bs. i had to throtle it because .. too many replies.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform you don't understand how the world [of the morlocks] works.
mircea_popescu: long-day you have to meet the power of scripts.
long-day: actually there are ways to cheat the algorithims. every time you like your own post or a comment that someone made on your post or if you reply to a comment, it refreshes and shows up on all the subscribers feeds again (if they are on FB at that moment in time). She's made an ebook on how to get your posts seen and is gonna sell it in the next month (she's great at that crap)
BingoBoingo: No, they actually seem to do the later. Insert video to be viewed before video people want to view.
BingoBoingo: <mircea_popescu> long-day 100k youtube views cost like 20 bux or so iirc. << Basically this is the thing that pays for decent streaming tv
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform the former.
asciilifeform: same idea here. word takes arguments - none given.
asciilifeform: aha. to burn like forest fire among barbarous primitives, and slowly worm into civilized world in onesie-twosie cases, to flare up one day in apocalyptic pandemic ?
ben_vulpes: the feed is a facebook curated thing - not something anyone outside of their revenue extraction machine has any say in.
ben_vulpes: long-day: doesn't mean either that any of those posts make it into the feed.
BingoBoingo: Shame I'll never see any of them since I ended Facebook.
long-day: well... 20 million people reached a week just means 20 million people total scroll past her posts on her feeds - doesn't necessarily mean they all click on her posts :-/ but if the blog/video is good enough and she posts it, it will go viral
mircea_popescu: the problem is you russian folk can't say the woman had tea without specifying if she was sitting down and how hot was it!
mircea_popescu: punkman standard mpex practice too.
asciilifeform: gotta love modern spamatronic engineering terms like 'efficiency', 'reach.' they take arguments! but somehow always implicit - you can say 'reach' without saying 'reach what' ??! it's as if we were writing perl.
long-day: my pages don't have that huge of a reach but my gf is cofounder of some big organizations and is admin on about 30 pages, half of which have about half a million subscribers each
bounce: it's the network effect, see?
mircea_popescu: long-day how do you figure a facebook page has any reach, and how do you quantify it to 20mn people a week ?
BingoBoingo: There's also a log of the logs if the logs go down
bounce: promises, promises. good thing the logs are patient. and usually there, too.
mircea_popescu: o.O. the endless variety of us peoples, or how did that quote go.
mircea_popescu: James George Janos (born July 15, 1951), better known by his stage name, Jesse Ventura, is an American politician, actor, author, naval veteran, and former professional wrestler who served as the 38th Governor of Minnesota from 1999 to 2003.

BingoBoingo: long-day: The last serious market, MPEx, pulled out of BTC Options after the Putocolypse.
ben_vulpes: that burning feeling of imitating thy fathers failures.
long-day: because I wanna buy my mom a new roof for her house and take care of her.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform which is why they got a problem. shat all over their entry point.
long-day: some of the fb pages I manage are "end the fed" and "jesse ventura 2016" about a dozen more. My gf's reach is crazy (about 16-26 million people a week). Idk why I'm desperate.. maybe because my dad failed at the stock market and and I don't like him very much...
asciilifeform: best starting point is utter shame << lol! how, then, to shame the already shamed?
mircea_popescu: yeah ben_vulpes has it. there's excellent reason why i ask girls to camwhumiliate themselves. best starting point is utter shame.
bounce: what's with the desperation?
ben_vulpes: probably the best thing you could do is enter at this low point and then demonstrate the abilit to learn, long-day.
ben_vulpes: 'cept mebbe long-lost right here as he ain't got a key to speak of.
ben_vulpes: Pierre_Rochard: well by that token we're all "real people"
long-day: this is ttnews by the way-- i'm a journalist and my wish is to learn this and to promote it on my news network/podcast/websites/facebook pages. I know this is the future and I've got quite a large reach so I know I can do a lot of good. I'm obviously desperate coming on here. And I take it trading margin on bitfinix is not suggested by you guys... and I didn't put all my eggs in one basket but I do learn from my mistakes and
Pierre_Rochard: ben_vulpes: the opposite of gribble, not a bot. Generous on thestringpuller’s part, I’m probably somewhere in between a bot and a real person
long-day: exactly - it's not which why I don't see how most can't see that it's great that bitcoin is giving the fiat $ competition
bounce grapples with the concept

ben_vulpes: my position on trading's an open secret.
ben_vulpes: undata: it's the forum, you can speak, you don't need any permission from me.
Apocalyptic: mircea, but it's TA ! it must be working
undata: ben_vulpes: is that an invitation?
mircea_popescu: he got the charts right lol
Apocalyptic: "if I were a little more patient I'd be doing great now..." // the noob fallacy, as it there was a way to perfectly time the bottom
ben_vulpes: roast the poor squeezed longs in the forum as an example.
los_pantalones: and with that
