as- known for SCUBA diving yet :)
mircea_popescu:
as the romanian expression goes, "men need to be a shade prettier than the devil gurning."
mircea_popescu: decimation: now, why do you suppose those who work in the bezzle economy are showered with special favors while those who work in the "real economy" are treated
as serfs? <<< here's the thing : real estate agents are certified, and have to be bondend in many places, and have to follow best practices, and can and are put to the coals ifthey do not.
punkman: mircea_popescu: no no I need hanbot
as a signal :P
mircea_popescu: mike_c: but even that was better tested. hypothesis was formed before the analysis, not
as a result of the analysis. << not to mention independently tested etc. more's ther point, mpif wants unalligned risks, which is 90% of thy that even makes sense
mircea_popescu: Mats_cd03: assets search engine? already exists << no, it doesn't, because google is doing a shit job of indexing each log page, which my experts establish is because bad titling shceme, but rather than fixing that (
as proposed about two weeks ago, it's in the logs, SEARCH FOR IT :D) and hjoping google fills in the holes (which experts say it never does once they're in, no matter what happens), a complete solution is m
mircea_popescu: but odds are he might
as well go "fuck this shit, we're dropping that vendor. standby"
mircea_popescu: ce Oracle when it's ready, so long

mircea_popescu: benkay << i can't believe the guy actually proposed an inability to remember wtf he's doing and why
as a sort of intellectual manliness.
decimation: now, why do you suppose those who work in the bezzle economy are showered with special favors while those who work in the "real economy" are treated
as serfs?
decimation: Congress took away the presumption that engineers can work
as independent contractors, thus reducing their ability to be self employed.
decimation: "Introduced by Senator Daniel Patrick Moynihan, Section 1706 added a subsection (d) to Section 530 of the Revenue Act of 1978, which removed "safe harbor" exception for independent contractor classification (which at the time avoided payroll taxes) for workers such
as engineers, designers, drafters, computer professionals, and "similarly skilled" workers."
TheNewDeal: I will happily trade my constant position location
as long
as I don't have to have another one of those updates. Do you hear me Big Brother? You've finally won
decimation: MLAT In some regions with coverage from several FR24-receivers we also calculate positions of aircraft with the help of Multilateration (MLAT), by using a method known
as Time Difference of Arrival (TDOA). ... That means that MLAT coverage can only be achieved above about 10000 feet
as the probability that signal can be received by four or more receivers increases with increased altitude.
mike_c: understood. i just see you
as a good potential customer for coinbr, so I was trying to dig into why you were hesitant. i think i get it.
mike_c: but even that was better tested. hypothesis was formed before the analysis, not
as a result of the analysis.
mike_c: TheNewDeal: last comment from me, i'm really not trying to sell you. But that 'tiny percentage' you were talking about from hedge fund managers is usually 2%. which is the same fee
as coinbr in your 10 BTC example.

as bitcoin was $1000+ at the time

mircea_popescu: since we're doing affidavits, prosecutor is welcome to an affidavit
as to how he himself bought.
mircea_popescu: ThickAsThieves: conveniently occurring just
as the price topped << anything having taaki involkved and not being a scam ?
mircea_popescu: so basically, for
as long
as other people cook, crowdfounding can continue to make the tomato roses.
mircea_popescu: In retrospect, the situation was laughable because here I was living on peanut butter and bread (or Ritz crackers when I could afford to splurge) for months at a time. When I got to know this poor figure and heard her story I felt worse for her plight than for my own (I, after all, I thought I had everything to in front of me). I was genuinely appalled at one point,
as we exchanged stories and commiserated with each

as such a fractional reserve
BingoBoingo: Eh, the ATF is probably going to go after them when one of their customers fills a sock with their quarters and uses the product
as a weapon.
Apocalyptic:
as you wouldn't trust someone in finance dressed in a tshirt supposedly
BingoBoingo: It's sad to have to say this, but
as bad

BingoBoingo: moiety: They said they will. I think some things attractive about the job to me (odd hours, duties from four other people's jobs) are going to come out
as turnoff in the other interviews.
bitcoinpete: "The company known for computer chips on Thursday plans to announce the availability of an app that lets people leave offbeat animated messages using smartphones. It exploits the device’s camera and microphone to capture a user’s facial movements and voice, which are used to control cartoon-like figures known
as avatars in recorded sequences."

danielpbarron: i've never been either; it's gonna be teeming with what MP refers to
as "libertards"
danielpbarron: i don't think i'll go to any future porcfests; i kinda regret buying the ticket for this one but i might
as well use it at this point
mircea_popescu: or in otherwords, if you're willing to kill
as many subhumans
as it takes

decimation: yeah it's a civil case,
as opposed to criminal
decimation: Everyone at our school knows who Dylan is. He comes and goes to lessons
as he pleases, habitually swears at teachers, and is an accomplished playground bully. ... I was surprised to hear Dylan?s name announced. He had collected one of the largest amounts of ?reward stickers? in year seven, and was due to collect a prize. Many teachers, it turned out, had taken to bribing him with these stickers in a desperate attempt to appease his
BingoBoingo: Well, the right combinations of lights and sounds can be
as dirorienting
as the drugs
BingoBoingo: TheNewDeal: Sure I offered a discount, and I tried offering you the same
