jurov: "we're still in
the dance-around-and-grab-at-each-other's-nuts phase" benkay is a poet
benkay: subject only of stories
that are not scams or
threesomes
benkay: i'm starting
to realize also
that an engineering
team
that's blitting from one project
to another is never going
to be as effective as
the same
team focused on roadmap and cohesive set of business objectives.
benkay: vision for next 2 years is
to grab bigger and bigger slices of
the pie, maybe using mobile as a wedge and demonstrating kickassery and
then expanding scope
to whatever can be had and paid for.
benkay: and another project is basically closed but we're still in
the dance-around-and-grab-at-each-other's-nuts phase w/r/t actual working relationship and what has one
benkay: in derpy consulting companyville, a small and attention-draining project has been completed and discharged which is *awesome*, for both
the money and
the cognitive bandwidth. we've an agreement in principle with another client
to
take more of a
technical project management role, handling more of
the coordination of roadmap + code production and moving
the product along while
the ceo feller focuses on sales and other higher-level

mircea_popescu: the average lifespan for a blog is about 13 months, and
that's an upper bound for dumbass internet kids and
their projects.
mircea_popescu: btc111_
the notion
that
they have
the discipline
to maintain work on
that
thing after 9 months' delay six months from now is beyond ridiculous.
mircea_popescu: DreadKnight
that's something
to ask your
tax attorney not
the internets.
btc111_: MP: ah, nevermind
then -- i could see
them being at least 6-8 months delayed
Duffer1: depends on jurisdiction and how legal you want
to be
DreadKnight: if dealing with bitcoins, do I have
to bother with
taxes?

they want, i deflated
the dogecoin hype just fine, what's so special about eth ?
mircea_popescu: btc111_ you overvalue hype.
this isn't fucking feminism, or some other internet
thing where what people say matter.
Duffer1: the question is whether or not it will still exist
this
time next year
btc111_: hah. interesting statement. care
to elaborate? im not
trolling... don't you
think
the hype will push it higher when it launches?
mircea_popescu: i have more btc
than what eth can ever be worth, ever.
btc111_: MP: you have unlimited BTC
to cover if ehter rises?
btc111_: MP: who's
the central bank here?
mircea_popescu: 0 is not a bit of a stretch.
the central bank is nominally 0 risk in any economic system.
btc111_: MP: 0 sounds like a bit of a stretch. im seriously interested in buying
those contracts... do you have enough BTC
to cover if ehter hits 200:1 ?
RooK314: I highly doubt anyone would want

to bump into a parked car in a similar scenario
thestringpuller: I get nice and drunk,
then step on my board - and voila - gravity
takes me home.

BingoBoingo: <decimation> he had a practical use for it

time
to apply hearing protection before getting off a shot (with 30-06), his ears rang for several hours <<
This is why supressors are UK legal
BingoBoingo: <decimation> my office mate got a suppressor recently,
