as the spam "business".

punkman: I don't think they usually add alcohol, just ferment
as usual

as a blog post
mircea_popescu: i do not know there is anyone more incompetent alive today than people posing
as lawyers for the us federal bureaucracy.
mircea_popescu: When the target of satire complains that it is defamatory, the relevant question is whether the satire can reasonably be taken
as a statement of fact about its subject. Dr. Berkley, by saying that "of course" the satirical articles do not reflect the actual words of the subjects, has just proclaimed that the satire he is complaining about cannot be taken
as a statement of fact.
mircea_popescu: ThickAsThieves: Chrome was freezing so i went to uninstall it and i think i unistalled the whole os ui << MP on ubuntu fresh install. "Why the shit does this have internet ? Take it out". Ubuntu proceeds to mark everything

thestringpuller: aren't those people labeled
as scammors until those obligations are paid of per the contract?
thestringpuller: bitcoinpete: so my idea would be to do what mircea_popescu did but additionally, compare it to the known losses of non scammor companies (i think most losses from non scamming companies have been covered somehow). Thus there is like a two-side criterion based on BingoBoingo's observation of a BTC company that incurs losses it can never cover
as "scammors"

Naphex: or have the irc client use utf8 decoding
as default
Naphex: and you can spend bitcoin on pp shops
as USD, without ID
Naphex: well he's been soundbiting it on bloomberg
as well
mircea_popescu: mike_c was
as high
as nyse, practically. back when btc went over 1200
fluffypony: mircea_popescu: it's quite funny - the Twitter exchange earlier led me to stumbling across MPEX's AngelList profile around the same time
as the conversation in -otc
fluffypony: "The most expensive inflation-adjusted seat was sold in 1929 for $625,000, which, today, would be over six million dollars. In recent times, seats have sold for
as high
as $4 million in the late 1990s and

mircea_popescu: fluffypony yeah. except mpoe is incorporated

mircea_popescu: Or that more attractive people are judged
as more trustworthy, or they arguments they give
as more intelligent. << this is actually not that bad a bias.
mircea_popescu: fluffypony: I don't get the Ohio thing << ohio is the shithole state. i used it

as an mta for outbound mail when sendmail would be fine

mircea_popescu: why would a bunch of dorks with nary a clue
as to the workings of the actual tools of their trade be even for a second taken seriously
as "journalists" ?

as effective
as conventional policy, but if the Fed is less willing to use it then the ZLB still represents a constraint. " LoL sentence

as fat it gets metabolized into energy for third worlders
mircea_popescu: pain without humiliation does not work
as an educative device.
mircea_popescu:
as it is, it simply moves some pizzas from idiot us people to famished third worlders, and persuades even more us idiots that "crypto = scam"
davout: mircea_popescu: sure, i could add a check, but imo a RAND() quantity would count
as unspecified, not a X where X may or may not be larger than my available cash

as derpy ?

mircea_popescu: if they could do anything even remotely useful at all, they;d be there doing it. like, probably dating and getting drunk with their friends,
as higher marginal utility activities than "solving hunger in this one block"
mike_c: because theoretical science isn't
as fun
as engineering.

CheckDavid: Don’t go out and start trying to offed people, but do reframe criticism not
as a bad thing but
as a trigger for growth. - hey mircea_popescu
mircea_popescu: (don't tell me the black man dressed up
as a vallet isn't really one and i just made a horrible gaffe offending our funny friends in the colonies)
HeySteve: completely invested in her candidacy. Opposition to her is going to be depicted
as misogynistic, like opposition to Obama has been depicted
as racist. It’s going to be this completely symbolic messaging that’s going to overshadow the fact that she’ll do nothing but continue everything in pursuit of her own power. They’ll probably have a gay person after Hillary who’s just

mircea_popescu: kakobrekla you have a point tho, iu don't think davout is registered
as a texas political promoter
mircea_popescu: thus begins your career
as a ... texas legislature political promoter ?
Apocalyptic: "and for some reason the ticket was marked
as solved without any response"
mircea_popescu: "After all, this is a dude with a lot of industry exposure and investments
as it is. He could basically build a closed-loop bitcoin ecosystem himself via his roles
as both investor (BitAngels, LA Bitcoin Accelerator) and executive at companies ranging from mining (KNCMiner), ATM hardware (Robocoin), payment processing (GoCoin), consumer wallet (ExpressCoin), and bitcoin exchange (Mt. Gox?). "
mircea_popescu: he's here trying to establish a noob
as "early investor" ? orly ? gtfo.
mircea_popescu: amusing
as 3) is, considering how utterly trampled he got for all the pompous bullshit he was trying to pass back then,
mircea_popescu: and
as to why now rather than earlier : nobody gives a shit about the foundation. nobod yreads what they do. nobody cares.
mircea_popescu: >Pierce called Egan “a pathological liar” and told BuzzFeed that he has charter flight records that prove that Singer and the other defendants were never in Hawaii with Egan,
as the lawsuit alleges. He said that he could not immediately release those records.<
mircea_popescu: Let’s be clear here: Brock Pierce considers his previous work with IGE to have been a positive contribution to virtual currencies
as a whole and he holds the delusion that his work in the field was instrumental to paving the way for Bitcoin. He wishes to be “The Godfather of Bitcoin”... It means what you think it means, especially in Hollywood.
princessnell: Apocalyptic i am fond of many ideas. and often the people who propose them
as well.
