mircea_popescu: rammy2k2 to be clear, were you working
as an affiliate manager for any of these programs you mentioned, or simply used them
as an affiliate ?
davout: asciilifeform: did they accept you
as their new leader?
mircea_popescu: cool. so. tell me about your experience
as an affiliate manager.
dexX7: <mircea_popescu> someone with 10 years
as an aff manager has to make fucking bitcoin clickbank < what is a clickbank?
mircea_popescu: then suddenly they ran out of money, the bottom fell out of the market, and the 20-30k or so idiots who really thought there can exist such a thing
as a "career in media" upon the basis of which they could like... take bank loans and buy houses and cars
mircea_popescu: one of the best examples is a fellow known
as varanul, ie dan voiculescu
☟︎ mircea_popescu: their investments fared about
as well
as neobee's, a few degrees of magnitude larger.
mircea_popescu: someone with 10 years
as an aff manager has to make fucking bitcoin clickbank
mircea_popescu: nevertheless, these are not tasks of the same nature
as mowing the lawn.
HeySteve: ah. well
as I see it, bad behaviour leads to negative rep which makes future trades less likely and the inverse is true. that's how I use the term incentives.
mircea_popescu: HeySteve i don't follow ? the wot is integrated with any cryptocurrency
as it is. i can and have rated people for say... atc deals.
mircea_popescu: Naphex but see, that's the snag : they used to do it
as a per-domain page rank thing.
bounce: depends on how the transit agreements work. some places actually liked generating more bandwidth "the other way",
as it pushed the balance a bit more towards evening out
mircea_popescu: actually upc arguably started
as astral, which you know... got started by the father of a chick i was doing back in hs
mircea_popescu: fluffypony
as far
as romanians are concerned, the 90s were spent going "da-i romaneasca ?" ie, does it suck ?
mircea_popescu: then one day i use one of their lines
as a title for a post, and i get the #1 spot by morning.
cazalla: i don't tbh
as i'm still relatively young and by the time i'm old, perhaps there will be a cure
fluffypony: best way is to get buyers to rate you on the WoT
as well
bitcoinpete: ;;later tell mircea_popescu you make a good point about the last line.
as students of history, we ain't forgettin' shit. i'm tempted to re-write it but then your comment wouldn't make any sense. it did feel a bit off
as i wrote it...
benkay`: remainder is left
as an exercise to the reader.
benkay`: perhaps you love the atoms, and perhaps once i did
as well, but i tired of the ever-present threat of digit removal.
gribble: Nick 'asciilifeform', with hostmask 'asciilifeform!~asciilife@pool-71-191-246-235.washdc.fios.verizon.net', is identified

artifexd: I would see such a rating
as reflecting positively on the ratee.
mircea_popescu: if he looked to do what he felt like it could have been subjective,
as a proxy for aesthetic i guess.
mircea_popescu: so inasmuch
as good is done, this is optimal not subjective.
bounce: "subjective"
as every user of the wot looking to form an opinion on some other user of the wot does so
as he deems good, mayhaps taking into account that raters will also use their own criteria to rate with.
mircea_popescu: if it's the kneejerk "not usg diddled" then might
as well discard it.
bounce: anyway, "good wot relations" means that you've met and dealt with a number of other people, and gathered their esteem, and in doing so gathered a total esteem enough to be deemed worthy of the community
as a whole.
mircea_popescu: god'd like to. but tis impossible, inasmuch
as the devil is human, and god is not that good.
bounce: guy posing
as "CEO" claiming to have lots of minions needs a good team. since claim made, up to him to back it up. that's not quite the same
as requiring to know his every move or his every thought.
mircea_popescu: conversely, misplaced shards of personhood ruin anonimity. such
as w/e, silk road guy.
mircea_popescu: bounce actually, misplaced shards of anonimity ruin personhood. which is why i keep having to ask derps posing
as ceos here "who's we".
mircea_popescu: there's no serious consideration of an oil-alcohol mixture being "storng enough",
as you won't drink vodka-canoia oil cocktails
bounce: or sides. you can discern both states, even if the distance between them is infinitesmal and only exists
as an idea to boot
mircea_popescu: speaking of "different" derps is like speaking of photons
as billiard balls.
mircea_popescu: the opinion of derp1 is exactly equal to the opinion of derp2 inasmuch
as we don't know anything about 'em.
davout: mircea_popescu: derps might be fungible
as anonymous entities, entities we couldn't care to name, it doesn't really impede their ability to each own a bitcent
mircea_popescu: stupid enough to not realise he can't have a "my"
as nobody, clueless enough to fail to distinguish a verb from a possessive. this is reddit.
mircea_popescu: " QR codes have been around and hyped for years, but they were never used
as much
as developers and marketing people hoped." << truth.
mircea_popescu: "Margo I have lived in the theatre
as a Trappist monk lives in his faith"
fluffypony: "A raid of his home in the wealthy neighborhood of Mexico City produced what police described
as "the largest single drug cash seizure the world has ever seen." Almost $207 million sat in the house in cash. Seven high-powered firearms were also in the house, the New York Times reported."
mircea_popescu: btw, i kinda have a bet with mpoe-pr
as to who shows up here first, asciilifeform or thickasthieves.

fluffypony: kanzure: try ghosting yourself
as a test :-P
bounce views nickserv
as rather fascist already, nevermind nick enforcing. it's the thing to do on here, but, you know. can also argue that with only gribble it'd give more incentive to check with gribble first and foremost, and to accept no substitutes.
cgcardona_: someone joining btc-otc
as me on 2014-04-20 07:34:38 CDT and 2014-04-20 07:34:24 CDT
fluffypony: cgcardona_: I'm reading his name
as Manus Porny from now on
benkay: ;;later tell BingoBoingo Where
as Ruby was born with "lol, suck cocks" << it's more like "lol i suck cocks" but yeah right idea
mircea_popescu: he who does not puts ze puzzle together is known
as... a putz.
benkay: generalizing concepts. sounds like someone heard about 'general solutions' from someone else with a lil bit o programmery experience and decided it was important to do for their ideas
as well.
fluffypony: "Bitcoin itself can be viewed
as an early form of DAC. We are generalizing the concept for use in the open source community, building on Bitcoin's proven technology. Bitcoin could be reimplemented
as a full open standards-compliant DAC. Perhaps someday it will."
mircea_popescu: "Having spent more than two decades,
as an option trader and book-runner (~ 650,000 trades), I have always been leery of inexperienced academics talking about "prediction markets" when we have organic, spontaneously formed markets, and have had them since civilization started --my reaction is that of an old plane engineer and pilot being lectured by a high school English student who never flew a plane. You can't tell t
exchange01: I know, well, i am wondering if you guys have any suggestions
as you know finding financing for that kind of business is impossible
fluffypony: mircea_popescu: wrt making Sybil attacks harder, isn't there/couldn't there be a GPG-like system that uses a common private key for a single owner, but also hash some sort of easily identifiable GUID
as part of the pubkey/signature to indicate which machine it is on? that way an attacker's work becomes slightly more complex,
as they need to not only create profiles but have a fresh VM/install/whatever for them
☟︎ mircea_popescu: you should have long by now learned that you're not really worth two shits
as you are, and until and unless you change to be more useful.
mircea_popescu: on that note, often manufacturers explicitly forbid to install updates and servicepacks since it might well break the app. << since heartbleed i'm going to forbid any upgrades
as part of the contract in all cases, always and forever.
mircea_popescu: bounce "the odd dos-only application that's critical to the business and irreplacable" << this should be ridiculous but isn't. most "tools" of today aren't actally
as good
as the tools of the 90s.
BingoBoingo: I have yet to see anything
as beautiful
as the original accutron movements.
mircea_popescu: oh oh. yeah some swiss makers actually tried using quartz oscialltors
as an error limiter at some point
BingoBoingo:
As white I'd play the queen's gambit.
As black responding to E4, the pirc, to d4 the slav, and to anything else a spanking.
BingoBoingo: Diablo-D3: Python is great
as a modern alternative to BASIC
BingoBoingo: In this way PHP was at least born with a purpose. Where
as Ruby was born with "lol, suck cocks"
bounce: so if you're looking for an embedded type project, that's
as a good an angle
as anything
BingoBoingo: bounce: I like the Z80
as an example to suppose.
BingoBoingo: bounce: Did I ever offer Z80
as an only option? I would kill for a multicore gigahertz class Coldfire dev board rated for server use
bounce: anyway, mind sticking to the topic and present some viable engineering choices that'll work on z80? (
as distinct from your personal preferences that work plenty fine on your desktop)
BingoBoingo: fluffypony: Why advertise it
as that? Posit the thing
as a student architecture.
Diablo-D3: I prefer removing
as many irritants
as possible
BingoBoingo: I try to keep my immune system in a state
as close to total war
as possible
BingoBoingo: Diablo-D3: Honestly I really dun give a shit about that anyways, detergents are just surfactants that aren't derived from fatty acids,
as a class detergent is a meaningless designation
BingoBoingo: Webmail
as a substitute for Pine is another.
BingoBoingo: Not even that. The You Can Message Someone on Facebook,
as a replacement for email is a catalyst of suck.
fluffypony: well, they're fine for the front-end bits,
as long
as they don't do any actual work
Apocalyptic: asciilifeform doesn't strike me
as the kind of person that would release a shitcoin
BingoBoingo: bitcoinpete:
As a great man once said "No bastard ever won a war by dying for his country. You won it by making the other poor dumb bastard die for his country."
cgcardona_: is argentina 100% for sure the locations (
as 100%
as anything can be of course)
fluffypony: artifexd: the problem is that this particular server will always be discoverable,
as it runs a bunch of altcoin wallets, so anyone traversing nodes to DDoS a particular scamcoin will come across it
fluffypony: *
as long
as an attacker doesn't know your IP
cgcardona_: so I would need to pay a friend to do it for me in SF and that seems like a hassle
as well.
bounce: on that note, often manufacturers explicitly forbid to install updates and servicepacks since it might well break the app. gotta love brittle "engineering" (by certified engineers!) like that. I don't suppose there's embedded software consultancy houses that'll do stress testing on the programs to see they'll stand up to such outlandish weirness
as running without admin rights and still function after hotfixes get installed and such.
fluffypony: the business logic stays
as a 16-bit DLL/tray app
benkay: ;;later tell bitcoinpete hey didja know that if you have an avatar.png at the root of your domain it'll show up on trilema
as your avatar?
TestingUnoDosTre: There was another person who's bet was submitted at the same time
as mine. Most likely them
kakobrekla:
as i said, a 'fuck you' clause must be added.
ThickAsThieves: "So bitbet joins the list of sxam sites. Moderators arbitrarily declaring in-time bets
as late."
