frb: a dangerous
terrorist organization, apparently
frb: oh, hehe. i'm not new, i idle in here for a long
time.
mircea_popescu: frb i generally up new names, see if
they're going
to say something stupid or not
frb: because if you have questions i can answer
them
frb: uh,
thanks for
the voice, is it because you know i'm admin. of 8chan.co or is it just random mircea_popescu ?
mircea_popescu: and
they have
this
tendency
to imagine
that pretending about pretending is going
to solve all
their problems.
mircea_popescu: jurov oddly it said nothing back
to me. otr's a fucking mess ;/
mircea_popescu: "I would like
to start by saying
that in context of
the below, my identity is irrelevant. My identity becomes relevant if I break
the law, which is something
that neither myself nor my employees have done. " herp. "i am resigning. who is 'i' ? don't ask! and
take my anon claim at face value as
to everything else"
jurov: oh now i see ... an complaint from otr plugin
that you sent unencrypted msg :)
bounce: then again, it's not as bad as
that.
the socialists build
their own old boys club and pass cushy jobs back and forth. well-paid jobs "helping" various
types of
the needy with plenty of
taxpayer money. all
the elitism, now with extra pretense.
mircea_popescu: i got "* [jurov] is away (Auto away at
Thu Oct 16 00:16:03 2014)"
mircea_popescu: RagnarDanneskjol: dayum. so has redundant domains like mpx been considered? .co .us .biz, etc <<
the domains aren't
the problem.
jurov: mircea_popescu:i see you sent punkman's 10000 s.bbet shares
to coinbr?
bounce: actually, wasn't
there already an app for
that?
bounce: artificial creaking device for unbreakable beds. kickstarter,
take it away!
ben_vulpes: i dunno man i expect my
tools
to stand up
to abuse
ben_vulpes: and now
the damn
thing squeaks abominably during any vigorous motion
bounce: thus we conclude
that successful socialism is a good way
to bring down society
mircea_popescu: i guess
this is what you get when you adapt
the schooling
to "the needs and capacities" of
the students.
mircea_popescu: as opposed
to all
the failure modes in history prior
to
that, which resulted from failing
to follow
the educational paradigm
mircea_popescu: idual, institutional, and societal). " << ironically,
they got
there by actually FOLLOWING
the education system
mircea_popescu: "Citizens capable of contributing
to
the development of a sustainable society must first develop empathy.
This empathy will be developed
through an advanced awareness of oppression and inequity
that exists at a local and national level. Students will become aware of inequities, examine why
these inequities exist, understand
the concept of institutionalized privilege, and recognize systematized oppression (e.g. indiv
mircea_popescu: meanwhile
they multiplied
to
the degree
they're
the premier failure mode of
the young adult.
mircea_popescu: (and
that "back
then"
time is probably captured in road
trip.
tom green is
the stereotypical libertard, 1990s version)
mircea_popescu: but by now, with half a million of
them choking reddit and "social media"...
mircea_popescu: bounce yeah, it worked fine back when
there was one of
these idiots per university. at 1k unis and 400 seats it was still feasible.
mircea_popescu: <ben_vulpes>
the notion
that anyone's getting signal out of
the market
ticking up or down is absurd. << you know
the interestin
thing about humans is,
the
talented musician/painter/we can
transform
the brownian motion of
the atmosphere into signal.
bounce: should run for senate
then, eh.
mircea_popescu: considering how much
they spent implanting
the nonsense in
the skull, it ain't never coming out.
bounce: depends. was
there quite a while but left. apparently
the spammer doesn't remember.
mircea_popescu: anyway, if it's anything like
this dude, it'd basically lesswrong/meatballswiki/somethingawful hivemind. unemployable graduates with fixed if erroneous ideas "about
the world"
☟︎ ben_vulpes: the notion
that anyone's getting signal out of
the market
ticking up or down is absurd.
moriarty: ben_vulpes, noise is
to
those who are unable
to understand
the signal
ben_vulpes: ##econometrics has its moments, but it's mostly people arguing about noise in
the signal
bounce: that isn't an answer
to
the question
mircea_popescu: kakobrekla .de, .fr, early version of gpg keys. hope
they can't decode ? :D
kakobrekla: hm, i just emailed instructions for my host in de
to my host in fr.
bounce: moriarty: do you have a script messaging everybody in
the channel about ##econometrics or something?
ben_vulpes: but
touching colored spots (to
the
tongue) for an excuse
to rub
together
assbot: Twister (game) - Wikipedia,
the free encyclopedia
mircea_popescu: or w/e
that
thing is called where
teenagers
try
to
touch colored spots in order
to have an excuse
to rub
together
bounce is still groping for
the reasons why
the ruli^Wpoliticking elite likes it so much
ben_vulpes: humans can't handle statistics. big disaster with 0% likelihood freezes
the brain in its place.
mircea_popescu: but i'm rooting for
twister being introduced by
the
tsa
mircea_popescu: and "terrorism" is a fantastic driver of behaviour. i have all
these reports about adults, ADULTS!!11 mind you, freezing in
their
tracks because
the kindergarten caregiver has said so.
bounce: let's assemble a pop band out of $improbable_ethic roughnecks and float
them on
the stock market
bounce: well, yeah, "terrism" is keeping our rulers busy but realistically
the risk is less
than getting raped
then murdered by $improbable_ethnic
moriarty: and you don't need
to consider meta anything
moriarty: think of perception as inputs
to
the machine
mircea_popescu: and for
the single woman with no contacts,
the situation is fucking
terrifing. so
this guy asked you out. well ?
mircea_popescu: humans are meta machines,
the PERCEPTION of
the danger is
the driver, not
the actual danger.
bounce: the serial killer statistics are
too marginal
to really drive
this
though, so it'd have
to be perception or something else. can't be
the sole driver.
mircea_popescu: unless it wasn't worth
the hassle because her friends did and meh
mircea_popescu: right. and speaking of
the victorians,
they most definitely didn't have
the current highschool/college situation, where pretty much every girl has fucked pretty much every guy,
bounce: well, assuming so,
that'd mean
they're becoming more independent. less excuse
to hide behind a strong man and so on.

assbot: [HAVELOCK] [HASH] [PAID] 3.75949896 BTC

mircea_popescu: well you have
the excuse you're not an anthropologist, so not really your job
to do
that anyway.
bounce: eh, can't be arsed
to
try and make a nice graph out of serial kills /
total pop over
time
mircea_popescu: at any rate, my argument here is
that
the very reason "we" are more open about it is because WOMEN are more open about it, and
they are more open about it because
their safety requires it and
they finally figured it out

to 16`255 shares, 7183 satoshi per share
bounce: sheesh,
that's some
tortured english.
that's what you get for discussing killing and raping, eh
mircea_popescu: but
they had no half'n'half, which from what i hear from other people's wives is
the standard fare
these days
mircea_popescu: i don't
think what
they did would meet my definition of fucking, dunno about yours
bounce: right enough about
the population growth. and
the mores. at
the same
time we're also opener about having
the sex;
they still fucked around in victorian england, just everyone pretended it didn't happen in public
mircea_popescu: if you read sexus, half
the stuff in
there would be prosecuted
today, it was all good fun and in
the spirit of sportsmanship at
the
time.
mircea_popescu: even without accounting for
the inflation of rape brought
through redefinition.
mircea_popescu: if
today
the average woman fucks 12 men
this decade,
that's 1.8bn fucks. if you have 15k rapes
that
mircea_popescu: if
the pop was 100mn in 1944, and
the average woman fucked 0.1 men a decade,
that's 5mn fucks
that decade. if you had 500 rapes
that's 100 rpm
bounce: dunno. peak of incidence seems
to've bean
the 80s
mircea_popescu: recent prices you can query
the bots or
the jsons. historical gotta
talk
to someone who has been doing
the querying.
wywialm: by
the way, how one can obtain historical data of MPEx stocks, as well as
the most recent prices?
bounce: not going
to happen,
that with its vendor lock-in
mircea_popescu: if it gives
that up it simply becomes yet another protestantism.
mircea_popescu: wywialm
the only notable innovation islam a sa christian sect brings is
the hard (and somewhat antiquated) requirement for a certain split of
the gender roles.
mircea_popescu: (in
the narrow definition
that she doesn't go with one, abducions aren't in our universe here)
mircea_popescu: bounce nope. of course not. however,
the incidence per sex act is lower, for one, and
the woman
that cares
to
think can pretty well avoid
them.
wywialm: mircea_popescu, can you elaborate futher on
the islam part?
mircea_popescu: this is why we can't be both rich and pure, and
this is why islam in its present state has no future.
mircea_popescu: this simple fact :
the only solution is a wot, and when most men have fucked most women
the serial killers stand out like sore
thumbs.
mircea_popescu: this is, incidentally,
the
true driving force behind
the "impropriety"
trend,
that
took skirts from
the ankle
to
the hip and women from no partners
to a dozen a decade.
mircea_popescu: to make it plainer, how does a single woman distinguish a suitor from a serial killer ?
they both approach her.
mircea_popescu: in fact, making
that difference is
the absolute best form of charity
bounce: didn't quite follow
that, but one might surmise
there's a fine line between stupidity and malice
mircea_popescu: "r3wt: alright, did you have coins on OpenEx maybe? r3wt: but anyone here who may have invested in openex or be owed some money, i got you. i got a real job now so i'm on
the ascent again"
