pankkake: I suppose since the ads are per site, I can't have an account for a bunch of sites? it wouldn't make sense for advertisers anyway…
mircea_popescu: interesting, who knew ads have a motivational function for the publisher.
BingoBoingo: jurov: Cool, I'll try to get something new up in the next 12 hours to try to lure more people.
jurov: BingoBoingo wonders how long Coinroll contributed << it's set till september 1
punkman: TheNewDeal, got some more lulz from that scammer in the end: http://dpaste.com/2T582KP
BingoBoingo: cazalla: I'm less concerned about the news site than the product they are shilling
mircea_popescu: i'm sure it's all the rage at the mahjongg club, but again, to exist that retirement house in florida needs a lot of externalities in place.
midnightmagic: Really all you're telling me is when I mention an inconvenient truth it bothers you. You know I'm right. Regardless of whether you think I matter or not.
mircea_popescu: i don't. i care enough about the perniciously castrated "o noes, don't argue boys, cocksuckers getr more done" to point out it doesn't belong in bitcoin, or generally among grown-ups.
midnightmagic: Hush now, that silliness doesn't work on me tonight. What do you care what I say about Conformal?
cazalla: fluffypony, that too but i am referring to cryptocoinsnews
mircea_popescu: once we've hung dutta, hearn and so forth and the bitcoin republic is well established, if you're still alive, you can come back and teach at the university or w/e you can do.
cazalla: BingoBoingo, you know that scammy site is in google news, such a joke
mircea_popescu: just, don't be amazed that nobody with actual involvement cares for your nonsense.
mircea_popescu: you're more than welcome to continue livng in your imaginary blind kitten fantasyland. you're too old to be particularly useful in any political sense anyway.
midnightmagic: No, they excised themselves and left deRaadt holding the bag.
mircea_popescu: de raadt kicked all the misbehaving doods to the curb.
mircea_popescu: look at what exactly happened in openbsd once the teeth of the nsa stooges were felt.
mircea_popescu: you think you did at any rate.
midnightmagic: And yet I just pointed out an counter-example to your assertion.
mircea_popescu: it does not work in environments which have to self-maintain, especially not against significantly hostile pressure.
mircea_popescu: the misbehaviour is to display this sort of behavior.
midnightmagic: It works. When teams can't work directly together, as in NetBSD and OpenBSD, the two teams can cooperate very effectively as separate teams.
mircea_popescu: i had no idea it's yours, but at issue is the nonsensical "k. A cooperative effort where teams share ideas and cross-pollinate with less ego gets more done"
midnightmagic: 00:44 <+mircea_popescu> omg fu derps. they're NOT behaving badly. you are.
mircea_popescu: you'll need to supply some context.
midnightmagic: mircea_popescu: I'm not a bitcoin core dev. Are you saying *I* specifically am behaving badly, or are you using me as a bitcoin core rep to make comments about them?
mircea_popescu: problem fixes itself over time.
mircea_popescu: when in shit, much more important than finding saints, is steadily applying nooses to the worst behaved.
midnightmagic: mircea_popescu: Bitcoin Core devs behaving badly does not preclude the Conformal team behaving badly. This is not a binary condition.
mircea_popescu: i spend most of my time that way.
fluffypony: nubbins needs to make that into a t-shirt
mircea_popescu: but no difference, the gallows hold.
mircea_popescu: karpeles was too busy to obey too, there's a never ending string.
mircea_popescu: then six months down the road let's wonder why the asshole's stretched and there's no path back to innocence.
fluffypony: because that's funny, right guise? guise?
fluffypony: Gavin is very busy dressing up like a mad scientist to accept awards on behalf of Satoshi Nakamoto
mircea_popescu: people have this idiotic attide whereby "whatever, i do what i want"
mircea_popescu: because gavin not listening to what i told him to do when i told him to do it.
fluffypony: this whole thing has barrelled into such aggression and anger
mircea_popescu: omg fu derps. they're NOT behaving badly. you are.
mircea_popescu: Since Conformal doesn't act this way, either they have a like-minded funder who enjoys watching strife, or their funder doesn't know how badly they're behaving."
mircea_popescu: "Investment banks don't like people acting in ways that make them look bad. Image is everything when your customers are rich elites. The antagonism going on with the Conformal team is not maximizing the dollar value they are being paid to do work. A cooperative effort where teams share ideas and cross-pollinate with less ego gets more done.
mircea_popescu: justusranvier is all over it too.
assbot: GAWMiners' Hashlet Sells More in Bitcoin Sales Per Day than Overstock
BingoBoingo: This has to be the shadiest thing with glossy ads http://www.cryptocoinsnews.com/news/gawminers-hashlet-sells-bitcoin-sales-per-day-overstock/2014/08/28
BingoBoingo: Vexual holds either 0 or all of the coins
cazalla: unless zhou and tradefortress stole that many
assbot: Bitcoin might become money, says Tax Office
cazalla: http://www.brw.com.au/p/business/bitcoin_might_become_money_says_PWgFfk3KR80TEaWuRLQ52I "There are 13 million Bitcoins in circulation around the globe, with a market value of $US6.4 billion ($6.9 billion). About 7 per cent of the coins in circulation are believed to be held by Australians." I wonder how they figure that?
RagnarDanneskjol: yea, btcd is the shit. only real work being done in bitcoin. i forked the day they published last year - prompted me to learn golang, which is also the shit
assbot: unsavorygarnish comments on Conformal are the Real Bitcoin Core Devs
BingoBoingo: lol at the username http://www.reddit.com/r/Bitcoin/comments/2evkc6/conformal_are_the_real_bitcoin_core_devs/ck3i8yj

gribble: http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=objectivism | The philosophical ideals populated by Ayn Rand that a man (or woman) is only entitled to what he has earned. It also promotes the right to life, a life free from ...
pete_dushenski: ye olde exercise for the alert reader
pete_dushenski: but maybe there's a flexible and subtle enough label out there for our little world eater
pete_dushenski: that is, their label rather than their utility and ability
pete_dushenski: for -isms are the professions of things.
pete_dushenski: i want to say no
pete_dushenski: good question then: does bitcoin have an "-ism?"
pete_dushenski: "Fascist propagandists also attacked cultural liberalism, claiming that it encouraged moral relativism, godless materialism, and selfish individualism and thereby undermined traditional morality."
pete_dushenski: not sure that i see bitcoin following this bit of "fascist doctrine"
pete_dushenski: "Although circumstances sometimes made accommodation to political liberalism necessary, fascists condemned this doctrine for placing the rights of the individual above the needs of the Volk, encouraging “divisiveness” (i.e., political pluralism), tolerating “decadent” values, and limiting the power of the state."
pete_dushenski: cheaper than veuve
pete_dushenski: just found a bottle NV Taittinger Brut Reserve: 40% Chardonnay, 35% Pinot Noir, 25% Pinot Meunier by my place for $55
assbot: Taittinger - Official Champagne of the 2014 FIFA WORLD CUP
pete_dushenski: i gotta get me a bottle of this stuff nao
pete_dushenski: a champagne brand that lives to this day and was, get this, the "official champagne of the 2014 fifa world cup"
pete_dushenski: in addition to his youth group, french pete also ran a little champagne bizniz
pete_dushenski: "In 1926 Taittinger declared that the primary goal of his Patriotic Youth was to “defeat the progress of communism by any means necessary,” adding that “We defend the hierarchy of classes.…Everyone knows that there will always be different social levels, the strong and the weak, the rich and the poor, the governing and the governed.”"
pete_dushenski: i think her nick was bitcoingirl
Beyond_Bitcoin: we use it to organize community events/meetups...etc.
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: Remember the journalist that quit forbes and annoys congressmen nao? What was her nick? I remember her name was Boring.
Beyond_Bitcoin: We'll be bringing on the dev from the FollowmyVote DAC that is soon to be launched
Beyond_Bitcoin: you guys really should consider stopping by the mumble
pete_dushenski: mircea_popescu he seems a bit on the religious and bloody side
Beyond_Bitcoin: btw...love the name of your bot
pete_dushenski: "De Maistre condemned the 18th-century Enlightenment for having subverted the dominance of traditional religion and traditional elites and paid homage to the public executioner as the protector of a divinely sanctioned social hierarchy."
mircea_popescu: seems a tad rich.
pete_dushenski: "Maistre, writing in The St. Petersburg Dialogues that 'all power, all subordination rests on the executioner: he is the horror and the bond of human association. Remove this incomprehensible agent from the world, and the very moment order gives way to chaos, thrones topple, and society disappears.'"
mircea_popescu: i don't recall all the others. this chick stuck because she was uniquely sensible.
Beyond_Bitcoin: damn man...that is kind of tough. almost like diane feinstein saying "bloggers aren't journalists and shouldn't have 1st amendment protections"
mircea_popescu: pete_dushenski i guess now ima have to fill this hole.
TheNewDeal: it's better than shit?
mircea_popescu: <Beyond_Bitcoin> invite crypto-enthusiasts and journalists to attend the events, record in real time without paying entry fees or having to travel long distances <<< so was there an actual journalist ?
Beyond_Bitcoin: reallly have no reason to be valuable because they cannot really be easily transferred for services of value.
Beyond_Bitcoin: sure there are a few coins that have a few interesting ways of paying for stuff, but all altcoins are relatively "ghost towns"
Beyond_Bitcoin: with that said, if you look at cryptocurrencies as towns...bitcoin is one of the only ones with any semblance of infrastructure that accepts it.
BingoBoingo: Why all of this making logs when Imma trying to read Trilema?
Beyond_Bitcoin: it is important to make that distinction
Beyond_Bitcoin: i am not only talking about bitsharesx btw..
assbot: /hashtag/BitsharesX?src=hash is proof that cryptocurrency developers have no grasp of basic economics.I'm kinda embarrassed for Larimer.
Beyond_Bitcoin: actually bitshares itself is far better than most people think
Beyond_Bitcoin: actually not bad. i personally focus on bitshares but the server is open to others who like different tech
mircea_popescu: mircea_popescu: ww2. most of the better frenchmen got shot. << i thought the point of surrendering was precisely so that this didn't happen, as it did in ww1, n'est pas? <<< maybe. who's to know.
