benkay: mircea_popescu: i
thought lispers were all bitter losers
to begin with
ThickAsThieves: ;;later
tell nubbins` Anyone know anything about
Titan Bitcoin silver & gold coins?
benkay: hey you
think i leave details out of stories you should have seen fluffypony earlier
mircea_popescu: so
then, maybe you're running
the local bitter loser group, and
the fleet sailed long ago. who's
to know.
ThickAsThieves: ;;later
tell nubbins` [16:11] <+ThickAsThieves> Anyone know anything about
Titan Bitcoin silver & gold coins?
benkay: it's not
that bad a move from
their perspective, mircea_popescu. if
they want
to chase milli+ contracts
that run only on .NET and POJ,
that's a legit business move.
ThickAsThieves: ;;later
tell nubbins [16:11] <+ThickAsThieves> Anyone know anything about
Titan Bitcoin silver & gold coins?
mircea_popescu: ThickAsThieves i never saw proof
they scammed anyone, if
that helps.
ThickAsThieves: Anyone know anything about
Titan Bitcoin silver & gold coins?
mircea_popescu: "you dumb fuck, i have
to hear from random passerby';s how utterly you suck at your job ? go fuck a goad in
the market, you're never working in
this line again"
benkay: asciilifeform: i had no intention of giving
that impression. i'd love
to own a machine shop but I need a pile more capital
to make
that happen. ergo...software.
mircea_popescu: sane boss approached with
this, if it can be documented, cans
the underboss
that same day.
mircea_popescu: benkay gotta give
the boss' boss
the opportunity
to make his own mistake.
benkay: well back up a sec - just what does
that get me?
benkay: just 'cause
their boys want
to hack with me doesn't mean i get
to
tell
their old firm what
to do.
mircea_popescu: so at
this juncture you send
the boss's boss a link
to
this log
benkay: and i'm sitting over here not exactly swimming in work but definitely a bit busy helping people who
trust me
to run
the
technical side of
their businesses, and definitely overwhelmed by
the
talent seeking work with me.
benkay: separately, a local company'd killed off
their division of programmers who work in
this particular stack due
to
the 'difficulty' of finding
them. several of
these devs left
their employers due
to
the boss' unwillingness
to put steel behind
the right
technical decisions with clients.
mircea_popescu: cazalla: BingoBoingo: didn't you know
that
the biggest Australian export after resources are bitcoin scams? (inputs.io, hair dresser ipos, kenilworth and on it goes) << i've often
thought of
this. add patrick harnett and a whole other bunch of new zealand folk
benkay: so last night i'm at
the user group
thing, making friends, introducing people
to each other,
the usual shit necessary
to keep a user group's momentum up, and not one, not
two but
three people on whose skills and capabilities i've been sold for a while come up
to me gently asking about opportunities
to contract
mircea_popescu: im sick of reading nothing but my own stories in
the logs
mircea_popescu: anyway, yes, please, by all means, even
the story cunt a bit
benkay: ha so my
time for story
mircea_popescu: in spite of which she did everything all night long, i
took her
to breakfast and
then dropped her off in
the arms of her mothar.
benkay: i also had nothing
to bring
to
the
table for
those years. arguably still don't.
assbot: [HAVELOCK] [PETA] [PAID] 132.20522660 BTC
to 77`492 shares, 170605 satoshi per share
mircea_popescu: past desperate attempts at cockblocking by
the entire collected "alpha" population. apparently my chick's unstoppable and really fucking scary
to boys.
mircea_popescu: with
the kitten. who, mind you, gets up in a cab and drives away with
two guys who are clearly foreigners, barely speak
the language, and she's just met
two hours prior in a bar at a bdsm munch.
mircea_popescu: meanwhile unattached in-their-own-oppinion dom guys
tell me all about how alpha really
they are, and
then we leave.
mircea_popescu: tells us all about how she's
tried being a 2nd subbie in a relationship and it was ok but
they ended it amiably and she's not looking for anything
mircea_popescu: there's
this chick
that looks just about 12 (and later confirmed her weight as 43 - !!! - kgs)
that
takes a liking
to my girl,
they chat, i buy
them wine,
mircea_popescu: i
take girl
to local bdsm brunch yesterday. bout fiddy local people, all very nice and friendly, some bar somewhere
that you'd
think you've died and it's greenwich village in 1980 all over again
benkay: not
that i found any worth my
time
to begin with, so i don't even have a sample of potential masters
to compare
to each other.
benkay: i spent my early
twenties looking for a man worth my loyalty and
then gave up.
benkay: someone
talked us into
trading leadership for democracy, with predictable results.
mircea_popescu: the why is
that for an entire generation now
they've been
trained
to falsely believe
that hierarchy is arbitrary and evil,
that submission is against human nature and forcing
the inferior
to submit inhuman etc scl.
mircea_popescu: 'More interestingly, many Americans no longer even understand
the concepts of loyalty and
treason?again, not surprising, since for a few generations now
they have been ruled by
traitors, whose routine acts of betrayal are designed
to benefit just about anyone?from Israeli arms smugglers
to Afghani heroin dealers?except
the people who supposedly elect
them
to office.' <<
that's not
the why.
mircea_popescu: later
that day wikileaks gave up and actually dumped it
too.
assbot: Why didn't Julian Assange use PGP properly when handing over
the US State Department cables.csv file
to David Leigh ?? - WikiLeak
benkay: i can't wait until my
taxable dollar amount is negligible
mircea_popescu: decimation: "you want
to get paid? well, you better write your
TPS reports in MS so we can give you
tax dollars" << "yeah but how about you don't have
tax dollars
to give in
the first place"
mircea_popescu: by
the way, re
the intel
thing and atari : in 1983, game consoles sold like 3bn dollars' worth (in 1983 dollars, like
ten
trillion
today). by 1985, it was 100 mn (9x% drop)
ThickAsThieves: google hangouts are recorded in 8 hour sessions
too, and able
to be live broadcasted on youtube, so we've had some dialogues and such as 'entertainment'
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform
to argentina, australia and everywherew ?
ThickAsThieves: so i've been getting lost in
the world of day
traders lately, found some google hangouts where people do screen shares and voice chat about charts, etc
mircea_popescu: it's like... might as well consider
the problems of
the amiga universe.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform: so gotta keep x86/winblows relevant somehow << can't imagine how
that'd work. by now
the stack is quite ample : x86 running windows
to connect
the owners of bitcents
to reddit.
ThickAsThieves: interestingly, in a WoT/BTC/Mircean world, all bad
things are permanent record
Blazedout419: Sad how overly sensitive
the USA is
these days
mircea_popescu: indians are now going
to be erased from written record and culture
too
mircea_popescu: so after having
their land stolen and later
their population exterminated,
ThickAsThieves: The Chicago Blackhawks declined
to comment about
the Washington Redskins' loss of
trademark protection Wednesday
ThickAsThieves: other
than
the expense of
the change, i bet it works out well
ThickAsThieves: the gov gave
them an easy revival, rename, rebrand, cool new name and jerseys and fans
moiety: i'm still running intel celery because my laptop broke so back
to an old one. it's dire!
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform i've not bought anything intel
the past 20ish years.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform: (intel never once in its entire life published anything but a mockery of 'open source.' see
their 'open' bios, for example.) << sadly. which is why everyone's on amd, really.
moiety: very well, been snowed under but getting
through everything :]
mike_c: BingoBoingo: cancel
the celebration party.
kakobrekla: its been so long since i used
that cmd.
danielpbarron: but i don't see how
the blockchain reveals any info
that definitively associates
the funds with you
