mircea_popescu: ok so believe it or not, trilema credits just had its first hash collision. two guys with very reasonable emails + their ips hash
as the same thing. who knew.

as an afterthought "ohey, fundraising is in Bitcoin and so are dividend payments"
assbot: How to fail gracefully
as a Bitcoin business
mircea_popescu: i thought it was mostly forgotten
as a legal term cca 1898 or something

nubbins`: me going to a barber for a haircut would make
as much sense
as going to a restaurant for a bowl of cereal
bitcoinpete:
as fucking if someone takes the beat-up car instead of the coins
assbot: North America's Bitcoin Roadshow Offers Free Car
as Grand Prize
BingoBoingo: I think one of the most important moments of my development was when
as a child I learned the trophie store is an actual place
BingoBoingo: I do this pretty much
as I mention in the statements. It's a thing... I do it. I'll offer a range of more than most actual work the lowest performing civil servants do, but still less than nubbins` when he is in extreme focused art mode. (I estimate that to be between 0 and all of the hours in a week)
Naphex: how are you likeing it doing it
as a full time job?
BingoBoingo: I
as mentioned before really didn't start until I beat herbi. Before I occasionally bet substituting exchanges for bookies.
BingoBoingo: Naphex: I'm trading by hand so any moves into fiat occur only when I'm awake and ready to put in a lower bid very soon after fulfillment. <<
As this in in the chan it is an official disclosure. Nao.. Good luck figuring out my sleep wake cycle... if there is a discernable one.
fluffypony: I told him to get on here and get in the WoT
as it'll help with future ventures
mircea_popescu: up until you realise some total dork took a line off lovercraft,
as-is.
mircea_popescu: evil is traditionally used
as the catchall for anything anyone perceives
as contrarian or enmitous and isn't readily reducible.
BingoBoingo: I dunno if even a Madoff level fraudster makes it
as an officer candidate in the Evil Army
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo i wonder how they manage to shoot videos tbh. if i were living the limited lifespan of a rappar, i couldn't give less of a shit
as to what tv convntions are.
mircea_popescu: so basically society only works for
as long
as society enforces some sort of equivalent by itself. which is also why there can never be a society of "laws not men".
xmj:
as in, The Market For Lemons ?
BingoBoingo: Maybe the headline is the test? Secret Service collecting references to it
as data to feed the beast...
mircea_popescu: Apocalyptic i suspect it's only disrupted by the fact that atc has the sort of backing that makes it not go anywhere. it's nailed straight to the sun
as it were.
mircea_popescu: since they'll be counting the "high" 5k
as "low" six weeks later anyway
mircea_popescu: on top of that there's some... maybe 1-2% by now, amateurs that get to jerkoff to the thought that they're "just
as much a part of bitcoin
AS ANYONE"
fluffypony: but it serves no practical purpose
as an investment vehicle for those already holding Bitcoin (or who are buying Bitcoin on a monthly basis with their fiat earnings)
BingoBoingo: Pretty much anything not specifically designed to prevent it working, with exception
as defined by the laws of physics (mountains, clouds, the sun...)
mircea_popescu: i had no idea they used the barrett
as an anti-personnel device on the streets of the asphalt jungle
assbot: How to fail gracefully
as a Bitcoin business
mircea_popescu: the stupidity of people holding bitcoin is the one thing that can hurt bitcoin (
as evidenced by say the pirate debacle, or by the fact that a million fucktarded stoners managed to give the usg a gift of 20k ish btcs)
pankkake: "their technical skills and abilities are pretty well proven" => same was said about kslaugther, presented
as some rock star entrepreneur and engineer (when he was neither)
moiety: bupropion is given rarely here
as an antidepressant but more
as an anti smoking thing,
as its not licensed in the same was
as in the us
edlund10: this bet should be already resolved
as yes :)
chetty: I dont see tax so much the issue
as the bank squeeze
jurov: slovankia/eu. but the VAT needs not be such a big problem
as the paint it
mircea_popescu: ore disastrous,
as with the most recent one. Each attack is hugely successful, and after the cataclysm that the attack causes the attackers are hailed
as saviors of the poor, the oppressed, and the nation generally, and the blame for the the bad consequences is dumped elsewhere, usually on Jews, greedy bankers, speculators, etc, because such attacks ar
mircea_popescu: The big and easy government attacks on money target a single central money issuer,
as with the first of the modern political attacks, the French Assignat of 1792, but in the late nineteenth century political attacks on financial networks began,
as for example the Federal reserve act of 1913, the goal always being to wind up the network into a single too big to fail entity, and they have been getting progressively bigger,
mircea_popescu: Then knowledgeable people complain that the evil financial network is heading for disaster, that the government sponsored enterprises are about to cause a “collapse of the total financial system”,
as Wallison and Alan Greenspan complained in 2005, the government debates shrinking the evil government sponsored enterprises,
as with “S. 190 [109th]: Federal Housing Enterprise Regulatory Reform Act of 2005″ but they
mircea_popescu: increasingly more respectable firms will be offering btc denominated savings accounts with a fiat clause
as the cheapest most accessible way to get in the game
jurov: such
as, i asked a designer to improve colours of coinroll logo. he made three variants
BingoBoingo: I'd almost venture to say based on Opportunity costs that the F-35 might have been
as injurous to the US
as Iraq
mircea_popescu: and since we're discussing the war in iraq, let's debunk some common myths. the us has spent close to 2 trillion on it so far, which balloons to 7 trillion if you count interest payments,
as the us is flat broke (the affair will be paid for by 2055ish).
decimation:
as long
as your obscure research "proves climate change", you will avoid "problems"
decimation: "?I believe that the problems in the Heliophysics Division are dominated by the continuing actions of Dr. Madhulika Guhathakurta,? Chenette wrote. ?By her actions she chooses not to work
as a member of the Heliophysics Division team. More than any other person she has been an unusually divisive and polarizing presence in the heliophysics community.?
decimation: ascii,
as long
as USG is able to keep the bezzle going - joining the bezzle wot is going to be profitable. Ivies are the traditional entrance to the bezzle wot
BingoBoingo: SLAC ends tend to be the same but the means are subtler than Ivys
as always
mircea_popescu: “Admissions officers pay
as much attention to students’ choice of essay topic
as they do to the details in their essays,” Motto told me.
mircea_popescu: Michele Hernandez, another prominent admissions counselor, runs one or more sessions of an Application Boot Camp every summer in which roughly 25 to 30 kids will be tucked away for four days in a hotel to work with a team of about eight editors on what she told me were
as many
as 10 drafts of each of three to five different essays. The camp costs $14,000 per student. That doesn’t include travel to it, the hotel bill
BingoBoingo: decimation: You have to realize what I say about methodism is purely
as an outside observer.
mircea_popescu: "Then he got to her essay.
As he remembers it, she mentioned a French teacher she greatly admired. She described their one-on-one conversation at the end of a school day. And then, this detail: During their talk, when an urge to go to the bathroom could no longer be denied, she decided not to interrupt the teacher or exit the room. She simply urinated on herself."
mircea_popescu: no but there's no difference between avoiding a debt and making a gain. inasmuch
as the offer is there, it's indifferent who you buy from. if you buy from me you prevent someone else from doing so, who will in turn have to buy from the "Founders"
mircea_popescu: peterl perhaps. suppose some guy comes to your town and starts seelling bottled water
as "magical healing elixir"
mircea_popescu: that's an unbeatable service, pretty much everyone is shady
as fuck
BingoBoingo: Seekrits... FPGAs
as user interactive platforms.
mircea_popescu: rarely will someone kill the queen to die to the bishop
as it were
mircea_popescu: seems the one thing a woman can do to make sure she won't be remarkable, or remembered, is stay in school
as a teenager.
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu:
As long
as the beef accompanies it.
benkay: moiety: i read something you wrote earlier
as "5-speed manul"
buanz0: the national drink is a herbal infusion known
as mate
buanz0: i drink it
as a stomach med
BingoBoingo: Then again
as mircea_popescu pointed out last month... I probably need to target a cleaner class of girl...
bitcoinpete:
as far
as i can tell hairdressers drive hyundai elantras
moiety: my uncle refurbed one for my mum
as her first car before minis had their revival and panels were still £15 each. great wee car.
BingoBoingo: I could see having a "fun" car, but probably
as a third car. First car is blending in car. Second is moving shit car. Third car can be fun car.
BingoBoingo: Apocalyptic: The thing is for this purpose he is to... not what I'm looking for. I'm looking for someone
as lost with the English Language
as I am reading Romanian Trilema articles.
BingoBoingo: Maybe we should start the rumor that Ghash.io is Government has, and refer to it
as G-Hash and its operators
as the G-men
gribble: Nick 'trinque', with hostmask 'trinque!~trinque@trinque.org', is identified
as user 'trinque', with GPG key id 42F9985AFAB953C4, key fingerprint FC66C0C5D98C42A1D4A98B6B42F9985AFAB953C4, and bitcoin address None
BingoBoingo: trinque: SO you're a 'Murican afraid of the gasenwagen
as well
assbot: Those who don't ignore history are just
as doomed to repeat it
as those who ignore history. Because both will have the same history.
mircea_popescu: exact fucking time to mess with this, when russia is pushing
as hard
as it can and iraq all but became an official al-quaeda state
mircea_popescu: (their only limiting factor is that human cells don't have a defense either, and rarely do you get a bonanza like tpi that's 5k
as afine to bacteria folic process
as to human for unknown reasons)
mircea_popescu: so the pre-existing defense theory doesn't really hold
as well
as all that.
mircea_popescu: in principle bacteria would have
as good a chance to develop immunity to tpi
as it would to penicillin. they're both antibiotics (granted, one static, the other cidal, whatever)
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo this is approximately correct, especially if you focus on things such
as penycilin. not quite
as true with substances such
as say trimetoprim
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: Well, the reason we've found any substanital antibiotic this far is because some other microbe produced it
as a defense and before we produce the chemical on an industrial scale, there are minority bacterial populations carrying genes for resistance.
mircea_popescu: still an open question
as to how much iathrogenic pathogen virulence is due to you know... better hospital techniques.
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: Hypercard is great Mouse Practice
as well...
mircea_popescu: "Speaking
as an insider, I can tell you that most HFT firms playing around with FPGAs are doing so because of slick-talking FPGA marketing hucksters. The more that perverse incentives change, the more they stay the same" << flanagan has a point.
mircea_popescu: "Go with a straight-dataflow paradigm, where all operations are part of a dependency graph (and if your chip is large enough, exist at all times
as physical objects which wait for their inputs to become available, and signal their successors within picoseconds of their output becoming ready.)" << tbh, this is not only grand in theory
BingoBoingo: punkman:
As I play with it I'll prolly think of things
