mircea_popescu: these are very different, even if cyberneticists keep wanting to represent the brain
as a computor.
mircea_popescu: anyway, i guess the one true gain from this discussion is a lesson
as to how downing people may be bad for debate and the marketplace of ideas.

as fucktoys, giving away free cool nipple piercings would not be giving away any product either

fluffypony: Naphex: so push it
as a BIP and get comments on it
mike_c: fluffypony: leave it
as is, and tell TaT to comment on it if he doesn't like it
ThickAsThieves: with the convenience be speed, false sense of security, or ignorance
as bliss
ThickAsThieves: yeah my point wa a customer can make
as many sacrfices
as they like to protect their own convenieneces
ThickAsThieves: also, yknow your Coinbase thinks America is Important section mostly serves
as data showing how US is important
mike_c: kinda like if you treat bitbet
as a last-second bitcoin faucet.
BigBitz: This, too, is antithetical to Bitcoin, but also flies in the face of all logic. Why layer the fees on to ordinary users that could be sending Bitcoin to their mom or their sick cousin? Why not let the merchants carry the cost, since they can write the fees off
as a cost-of-doing-business?
fluffypony: BigBitz: ah ok - I'll add that in
as a sidebar
pankkake: jobs sold the ipad to the press,
as the thing that would save them
fluffypony: I actually don't know how mpoe-pr/hanbot lasted
as long

fluffypony: "robot servant in channel responds
as follows"
fluffypony: mircea_popescu: you mean the crowd that self-identify
as "ibankers" ? :-P
mircea_popescu: muisti = cocksuckers in romanian. a very economic language, needs fewer letters for the concept. also reflective of the fact that romanian women are on average better trained & moar experienced with it so it doesn't take
as long.
mircea_popescu: time to start seriously discussing the irrelevance of the world bank. perhaps it's time it just goes away,
as it has little chance of being folded into mpex.
pankkake: eh, you have the same success rate
as me yesterday

as "fixed income" and the whole class is nonsense.
mircea_popescu: ::rate fluffypony -1 has no inkling of a clue
as to what time management is

fluffypony: "FEC, in ruling 6-0, says Bitcoin contribs to pol committees will be treated
as in-kind contributions--same
as stocks, other items of value."
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform only select trades tho.
as he said, it trade mags are a joke
fluffypony: yeah I faked the BitcoinBourse listing
as well
mircea_popescu: pankkake divers industry publications are still run
as if it were 1970
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform not
as much
as used to be the case, the craft is slowly dieing.
mircea_popescu: davout do you know what's the last thing going through a fly's head
as it crashes on the windshield ?
fluffypony: mircea_popescu: initially, it's architected for other coins, so they'll be added
as time progresses
fluffypony: mircea_popescu: yes - we structured it
as: I own 50%, Peter owns 50%, we've diluted our shareholding (equally) for the IPO. he does all the work, I operate
as chairman of the board (which currently consists of me and me alone, that will change later)
