jurov: so now we know what stan's fapping
to
jurov: but you imply he needs
to pull strings in addition
to
that
jurov: how would
the graybearded dude be able even remotely comprehend all
the intelligence?
mircea_popescu: imagine if you went
to hibernate like a bear, and when you came
through all your shit was broken and unresponsive.
mircea_popescu: the sadest fate in
the world would be for such a set
to exist, ina bunker somewhere.
jurov: that falls into mastermind definition
too, you know
jurov: is
there a historical example of such a mastermind?
mircea_popescu: the gods shall strike us down
thing is mere eschatology.
mircea_popescu: it somewhat shares
the fate of "frustration" in
the hands of popidiocy. but outside of what
the reddit horde
thinks, frustration is a major psychological process,
the fundament of all volitive activity.
mircea_popescu: the notion
that
there exists an unseen reality behind
the seen reality, whether right or wrong, is
the very substance of mysticism.
mircea_popescu: i foresee
that when you;ll be old you'll write a great kids book.
mircea_popescu: you're possibly
the most mystically inclined engineer i know.
mircea_popescu: so
that people couldn't like, you knoiw, steal his selfies from his plaintext gmail acct ?
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform let me put it some other way. wouldn't you expect
that if mp is conversant in pgp, so would be obama ?
mircea_popescu: you'll find much less pituitary cells in a random biopsy
than muscle
tissue
mircea_popescu: the stuff you want
to know about,
three people know. unless one of
them is
the source, it's not leaking.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform
the stuff
that was leaked so far mostly follows
the "brain percentage" criterion.
diana_coman: mircea_popescu how do I get my crafting prize and is
there a
time limit for
that (to know how much
time I have
to figure out
the basics of altcoin)?
mircea_popescu: right now,
this is faster
than blockchain propagation. Basically, it will be amazingly difficulty for
the coin
to agree on a valid chain, because
there will be any number of chains
that are almost
the same length.
mircea_popescu: For
those
that are unaware, Unattanium is a newish limited-number-of-coins SHA coin.
They've recently had
to fork
the chain, because
the difficulty calculations were broken, and it went far
too high. Sadly,
they've now broken it in
the other direction, and
the dev seems intent on ignoring
this, and abusing or hand-waving
the problems away. It's now running at an 8 second block
time. For everyone who is NOT facepalming
mircea_popescu: you're
trying
to sell
this conceptual model where in alt-nazi germany one can be hung for being a jew ONLY IF working as a clerk.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform
that's provably false : if
they did, you'd know what
the definition of aryan is.
mircea_popescu: mod6 he has 6 of em.
they're rated 280ish
to 310ish ea
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform because
they can't afford
to pay smart people enough.
mod6: I guess I could just put a line in
there
to set
the % est. diff change
to -75% of less
than
that number is received from
the source.
X-Rob: anyway,
toodles 8-)
X-Rob: mircea_popescu: use
the link I pasted
X-Rob: and
the kids are now up and want
to play minecraft on
the laptop
mircea_popescu: so like 2.269 satoshi/day or did i just broke
the maths ?
X-Rob: I'm actually away at my inlaws
this weekend
assbot: xrobau Reputation
thread.
X-Rob: I have a reputation
thread
mircea_popescu: X-Rob well, i dun know em, i dun
trust em, and we have a similar problem : you're not in
the wot.
X-Rob: nah, I just rent my gear
through
there
X-Rob: We can do it all
through leaserig so you can control where it points
X-Rob: I'm happy
to lease for
that
kakobrekla: if
there isnt a significant discount you are better off
to rehire every diff change hehe
mircea_popescu: but i guess
the lower one would work. how'd you feel about a longer
term deal ? willing
to move on
the price a little ?
X-Rob: That's meant
to be 13, but a couple of S2s are running slow
X-Rob: however, you can look
through my bct ('xrobau') profile for me
trying
to argue with idiots. I gave up, however.
X-Rob: (that was
the correct answer)
X-Rob: Let's just leave it like
that
then
X-Rob: However, full disclosure, etc, I'm
the guy who caused all
that shitstorm with
that new unattainum scamcoin
