mircea_popescu: BlueMeanie4
this is basically like smbc's
technicality club. you can easily end up hammered into
the dirt for having used
the wrong adjective.
BlueMeanie4: ok so we still
think anonymous assassinations are great?
mircea_popescu: precisely because of
the protection of
the duke of
toscana
BlueMeanie4: everyone knows
that if you keep sailing west you will fall off
the edge of
the world and dragons will eat you
BlueMeanie4: especially
the part about burning heretics at
the stake
chetty: haha I can see it now,
those who want one alive bidding against
those who want one dead, what fun
mircea_popescu: "you can speak whatever you wish as long as
the duke of parma protects you"
BlueMeanie4: it would?
the lords are
the ones with
the money remember?
los_pantalones: quantifying stuff like
that usually
tends
towards looking at willingness
to pay for insurance and other similar protections
BlueMeanie4: every person can have an entry on
the block chain
that indicates
the current value of
their life
mircea_popescu: mod6 i dunno,
they failed.
the blockchain seems just fine of itself.

this endeavor is not 'real danger'

to use chain API and join
the VC shill rtevolution amirite

Time since last block: 6 hours, 55 minutes, and 34 seconds <<
this can't really be right is it?!
BlueMeanie4: if you cant see
the obvious problem with
that im not going
to run down
that road with you
mircea_popescu: los_pantalones well cause it's still cheaper
to kill a guy
than
to annimate a corpse.
BlueMeanie4: seems
these perpetual adolescents who browse 4chan
think an anonymous assassination market would be real swell
BlueMeanie4: there are some real dangers were facing with
these
things
mircea_popescu: you're familiar with
the legal concept right ? "court will see
through
the veil" device in bankruptcy, probate and so forth.
BlueMeanie4: it should be calculated according
to
total market cap , no?
BlueMeanie4: the
truth has been written down many
times,
the
technology we used
to write it wasn't
the problem :)
BlueMeanie4: ppl
think
they are
the last word on anything
mircea_popescu: you need a wot account and
then a rating from someone in assbot's
trust list
to be able
to self voice.
mircea_popescu: BlueMeanie4 well i wouldn't imagine it'd be
the entire opinions
BlueMeanie4: wasnt
the internet supposed
to relieve us of
this sort of
thing?
BlueMeanie4: its someone frightening
that we form our entire opinion of someone
these days by what shows up on google

trollin for info on bluemeanie and came across
that
mircea_popescu: ::rate los_pantalones 3 public accidents in
tight pants
