BingoBoingo: Pretty sure that catsup bottle can be dressed up
as an MPEx dildo
bitstein: Pierre_Rochard has referred to Bitcoin
as an example of Coase theorem. Bitcoin can be allocated however... it will fall out of the hands of the stupid.
BingoBoingo: Once more,
as a reminder, we need to create a reason for people to want to buy in into Dogecoin, and for whales to hold their stash.
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: I like to think of them
as Patrons of the Derps
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: Well atm during their pre-sale they price their coins off of a timer, with 1 BTC buying less coins

thickasthieves: "I am a fan of making volume obsolete
as an indicator" ~bitcoin trader
mircea_popescu: A Black Hat spokeswoman told Reuters that the talk had been canceled at the request of lawyers for Carnegie-Mellon University, where the speakers work

as to eliminate risk for A at his expense.
fluffypony: chetty: yeah, it depends on the type of transaction
as well
punkman: xmj, I suppose that's when B acts
as escrow
pankkake: "You seem to be unaware that CoinLenders and Inputs are independent. They've always quite clearly stated that there are no warranties of any kind for coins stored there,
as such I do not owe you your claimed amount"
TheNewDeal: I'm quite fairly sure I understand the greenish vs red colors. But there's also a, perhaps, darker green line
as well.
mircea_popescu: "While from innate cowardice the upper classes turn away from a man whom the Jew attacks with lies and slander, the broad masses from stupidity or simplicity believe everything. The state authorities either cloak themselves in silence or, what usually happens, in order to put an end to the Jewish press campaign, they persecute the unjustly attacked, which, in the eyes of such an official ass, passes
as the preservation
thestringpuller: mircea_popescu: maybe this is better
as a trilema comment, but how are DERPS adjusted againt BTC volatility since they are priced in fiat?
bitcoinpete: i wonder if they get second-hand dentures from the western world in the same shipments
as t-shirts and jeans

as you do though!

as Facebook, Apple, Yahoo, EBay and Amazon have already begun implementing bitcoin transactions in their business models, in addition to Wallstreet, political candidates, and the music community."
decimation: you can buy on digikey for ~$20
as i recall, but I"m sure apple paid much less
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: Nah, you still scramble madly for a week
as you chase cesium precision
dub: 99% of people who sell themselves
as experts at this are probably trying to use 'ping'
BingoBoingo: I kind of wonder what the ruse it, seems like an overly strong emphasis on CD player much
as the headshops emphasize their glass pipes are for tobacco
assbot: Drug-resistant bacteria: Sewage-treatment plants described
as giant 'mixing vessels' after scientists discover mutated microbes in British river - Environment - The Independent
mircea_popescu: anyway. someone "like us"
as the author fills that symbol does not belong above ground anyway.
mircea_popescu: "For instance, hundreds of thousands of bacteria can form daisy-chained "wires" an inch or so long, and tap seawater oxygen for energy. Such filaments can hold soil together and conduct electricity about
as well
as standard copper wire." << wow.
mircea_popescu: dub more's to it.
as i explained to asciilifeform a while ago, it actually makes it impossible to be evil in raport to it.
mircea_popescu: compared to this, user derpage and luser derpage on -dev is about
as relevant
as fairies in the spring rain.
mircea_popescu: bitcoin has been enacted by the fiat of a few important people, a few years ago, exactly in the same manner. they weren't THAT important
as a % of the world, but that doesn't matter : bitcoin can't be un-enacted by the fiat of much larger entities. it has a cost of x to make and 1mn x aren't enough to undo it.
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: I haven't read the comments yet, but I wonder how many read it
as a proposal for linux developments
as opposed to IBM advertorial
mircea_popescu: decimation here's more. sha1 is implemented
as "sha1sum". sha256 however is implemented
as "sha256". then sha512 is... "sha512sum"
decimation: unintelligent
as possible. Stupid is predictable; predictable is learnable; learnable is usable."
mircea_popescu: obviously if one applied the same standards to quarks
as it does to bitcoins, one could never trust the fucking quark. obviously quark-nsa is behind it.
decimation: I guess I was picturing "determinism"
as "God sets the outcome of the quark-dicerolls in the way He sees fit"
mircea_popescu: and about
as close
as one can get to physically proving divinity.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform well, it COULD be designed
as a concatenation somehow, thus actually retaining 500ish bits. maybe.
mircea_popescu: "have a 4096 rsa key made out of 8 parts! it may not be
as strong
as the proper key, but that's good : if you forget your passphrase you can break the key and retreive your stuff!"
mircea_popescu: so you know... stop misrepresenting the swastika
as something bad just to serve your need to scapegoat imagery.
mircea_popescu: "Don’t depict the Magen David (Star of David)
as an equivalent to the Nazi swastika. The Magen David represents all Jews—not just Israelis, not just people who are violent against Palestinians, ALL JEWS. When you do this, you are painting all Jews
as violent, genocidal racists. DON’T." << and for that matter, the swastika represented all germans, not just the ones involved in homicide.
BingoBoingo: Pierre_Rochard: There's a lot of small shit schools getting on the doctoral train trying to escape their regional labels, so it is best not to use bachelor+masters
as a measure. That and there are Bachelors (sometimes + masters) schools that are better candidates for escaping regionalness than some shitholes like Ohio State.
mircea_popescu: "Don’t call Jews you agree with “the good Jews.” Imposing your values on another group is not okay. Tokenizing is not okay. Appointing yourself the judge of what other groups can or should believe is not okay." << omfg. this is about
as offensive
as it gets.
mircea_popescu: ima end up persecuting fucking jews
as the initiators of this "vocal minority trying to opress majority" meme.
BingoBoingo: Pierre_Rochard: It seems that list strengthens the case of it
as a regional school when it comes to Athletics.
mircea_popescu: this is the package maintainer's path to divinity : prevent all the f-students, masquerading
as women-interest, "general public" interest etfuckingc from breaking math.
mircea_popescu: so, i can argue that yes, it is just
as readily inferred
as anything else.
mircea_popescu: the rules
as they are preclude its existence. that may not mean it can't exist,
fluffypony: Virtual Cloud Enterprise Single-Sign On Management
as a Service
xmj: fluffypony: are you aware of anyone pushing Cloud
as a Service?
thickasthieves: I have more expensive ones and i dont really like them
as much

as "that movie that came out when I was 8 or 9 years old that I wasn't allowed to watch because it had a chick with 3 tits in it"
cazalla: had to do em again
as taping 2 pencils together to write 2x was too obvious
decimation: "The issue
as I understand it is that the output impedance of the iPhone 5 is around 3.7 ohms whereas the older phones and iPods are around 5.5 ohms. What is not clear is whether this has been changed by software or by hardware. There are reports that this is an issue in the EU region only. Yet some folk in the USA are also complaining."
mircea_popescu: definitely more important than derpstamp or w/e. and this is pretty hefty
as we sit now.
mike_c: this doesn't work quite
as well with companies. Lyft is testing this in NYC by blatantly ignoring all their regulations and fighting the state in court.
mircea_popescu: that's why regulation is taking over legislation
as a normative process.
mike_c: terrorist bux are
as green
as everybody elses.
mircea_popescu: hanbot no, not
as such. the traditional way is for the naive to train their submission,
as practiced in say india.
mircea_popescu: much like you know, trying to prosecute "buggery" because people who don't have sex don't want to think of sex in terms of "all holes, dp and your girlfriend".
as if.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform: mpex modem <<
as i recall, reliability of net connection is not an issue at mpex << so far that's the part that works best.
