dub: i wouldnt get back
to you either
bounce: could be
the problem is
that
these are "social" people, and
think nothing of a "white lie"...
that IT people
tend
to see, in
their mind's eye, flagged in neon red and yellow, marked "untruth!"
dub: Hi im bounce, I'd liek
to be a programmer, or a bullfighter, or an ASTRONAUT!
dub: theres likely
to a be a problem right
there
bounce: anyway, I stopped
talking
to recruiters a long
time ago. just not worth
the hassle.
bounce: something ITish. programming, sysadmin, netadmin, you name it. as long as it involves a unix and not windows. (Oh yes,
the "not enough unix on
the CV" girl, when half a dozen flavours listed. sheesh.)
bounce: dunno if
the scores I contacted,
tried
to anyway, were all impostors. all in europe,
though. all over europe.
mircea_popescu: bounce
that may be a numbers game. in a workin economy
there's call for maybe 1 worker in 1k ? 10k ? doing hr. in
the us like 1/5 of
the work force is employed doing
that. prima facie your odds are 99.x% of dealing with an impostor.
mircea_popescu: course
that's easier in
theory
than in practice. i know i'm making real efforts
to not start hating gays just because
these fucktards imagine
they can claim it in
their doomed but vapid quest for appearing speshul.
bounce: if
there's any recruiter in
the IT space doing better
than
that, I haven't seen'em.
mircea_popescu: if
tomorrow it becomes fashionable for
them
to pretend like
they're car salesmen,
that won't be
the #1 reason car salesmen suck
mircea_popescu: bounce well yes but
this speaks more
to
the "seo expert/web2.0 designer/bitcoin communitard/social expert" crowd of white nigerian kids floating around aimlessly
bounce: or sending a message inquiring about a specific job
to a "hi! we're new and exciting!" bunch, never getting an answer but ending up
thorougly on
their spamlist with
their wonderful! new! exciting! candidate matching system.
they kept on spamming business intelligence jobs because in
the "profile"
they'd cooked up for me without permission was "DEBIAN" somewhere.
that's how good
they were.
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: It goes in
the evil Librarian CV
bounce: yes, well, not quite
the same as being on
the phone
to some guy, getting fobbed off because you called
them and
they didn't call you. (literally, yes)
BingoBoingo: So personal blog just got a referral from Bing for
the
term "dystopian bingo"
BingoBoingo: CheckDavid: Well sure. Doesn't mean
they aren't delicious
though. What better way
to fight an endangered species
than with cornbread stuffing and a pad of butter?
mircea_popescu: bounce all my experiences with hr are under
the sheets.
BingoBoingo: CheckDavid: You know, my
time could be pushed
to
the max if something discussed here goes
through.
bounce: HR in general is fantastibad at handling candidates. recruiters amazingly aren't better,
though it's what
they do all day.
BingoBoingo: CheckDavid: At
the moment I'm working on getting as extended as I can.
BingoBoingo: At some point
their paper requires information
that isn't readily googleavle
CheckDavid: By
the way. In
the meantime would you like
to be considered for other possibly similar positions?
BingoBoingo: Last couple weeks at
the end of
the semester when people need
to write all of
those paper
they put on
the backburner.
CheckDavid: BingoBoingo: if CoinHR is still around by 2023 we will do our best
to get you a position
BingoBoingo: CheckDavid: University wants a librarian working in
the reference Department specializing in Bitcoin information resources. Someone will be hiring for
that by 2024.
mircea_popescu: Deanna
the Cocksucking Dean and
the Mysterious Alien Fanged Pie
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: Nah, you hire
the cocksuckers as Deans
CheckDavid: BingoBoingo: just for reference. What do you understand by
the
term BTC librarian?
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo maybe i'm way off
the mark here, but if you ran a university wouldn't you hire your own cocksucker as a librarian ?
jurov: ^ not his first
time
mircea_popescu: nah, "bitcoin community" is where
the disco crowd moved, now
that
travolta's had his sex change operation.
CheckDavid: punkman: oh really? Is
the btc community so big
that it is already seen as a bunch of maniacs looks for a quick profit or something?
mircea_popescu: noun atribute verb complement in response
to your inquiry.
CheckDavid: mircea_popescu: is it bad
to be vague?
bounce: you got anything specific in mind, other
than starting your own brand new shiny recruitment agency?
CheckDavid: Any businesses looking
to hire or professionals looking for a job in
the bitcoin community around here?
punkman: BingoBoingo:
that's what it does now
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo no. private keys. so
that lazy people can at least see
the input was spent
nubbins`: BingoBoingo
that'd be quite
the
trick
BingoBoingo: Oh I
thought Deedbot was using bundle hashes as pub keys and letting privates remain a mystery
mircea_popescu: this is why you don't get your certificate from
the same party you get
the goods.
mircea_popescu: nubbins` your idea is broken because if
the site will hash $rand it could as well print
the "verification" for it.
nubbins`: my fave IDE is
the deedbot website
tho
punkman: because I didn't write
the verifier script yet
mircea_popescu: copy/paste
the code on its github in your fav ide and run it.
nubbins`: because i don't have any
tools with which
to verify it
nubbins`: mircea_popescu it's inconvenient for me
to verify
that deedbot has registered my actual deed, instead of, say, $rand
nubbins`: so it doesn't matter how many extra statements
the other party created.
nubbins`: luckily, when we shook hands, we both new which btc address was
the one we were using
nubbins`: and i'd be able
to look at
the blockchain and see you prepped a few messages
mike_c: i would be able
to look at registry and see you prepped a few messages.
nubbins`: how is
this different from just registering a few different deeds?
mike_c: i want
to prove
that in july i said X, but with your method I may have prepped a few brainwallet messages and now be showing you one of
them.
hanbot: mike_c,
that's a good point!
mike_c: brainwallet method: you could prep 10 slightly different statements and pull out
the most convenient one.
hanbot: but it could lie
to you.
hanbot: also because it's what happens
to be used.
nubbins`: just like deedbot would be convenient, if i could use it
to verify
that
the right address has been generated.
hanbot: nubbins`, why do you use gribble for
that matter, you could just sneakernet
to nanotube
dignork: why not just verifying btc address equality
to deed's hash?
nubbins`: why am i getting a bot
to do it for me?
hanbot: a random digit or
two or
three.
nubbins`: okay. so why don't i just plug
the
text of my deed into brainwallet.org, and send
the money
there?
hanbot: mircea_popescu, i guess
the
trick you're not sharing here is
that you'll be adding mining
to
this later on, huh?
☟︎ hanbot: that nubbins puts a deed
there and someone else verifies
the hashing (through, i understand, spending
the input).
mike_c: the utility is
to be able
to verify you said something specific in
the past.
nubbins`: what, in your mind, is
the utility of deedbot?
nubbins`: if i'm doing
the work of verifying, i might as well just publish my own fucking deed, no?
hanbot: oh you mean you don't want
to actually do
the work of verifying and would rather rely on
the website's claim?
nubbins`: because
there's no easy way for me
to verify
that
the priv/pub keys were, in fact, generated from
the
text of
the deed
nubbins`: as it is right now, i register a deed, some bot sends a few satoshis
to an address, and i just sort of hope
that
this isn't just a random
tx
nubbins`: only if you have no idea how
to properly give your web server access
to sensitive data ;/
nubbins`: a nice companion
tool on
the deeds website would be a small form w/
textbox and button where one can generate pub/priv keys by
the same method
hanbot: kinda cool
to have an implementation made
to be broken.
nubbins`: ah, i was looking for a bare-bones implementation of
this
the other day
