mike_c: ah,
that is above
the new share block.
ThickAsThieves: so all he has
to do is keep himself in his band and wait
assbot: Rio Mayor On World Cup: "Were Latins, Were Not Used
To Deadlines"
jurov: just soliciting ideas, i may feel ineffective if
this keeps going on for longer
time
mike_c: at some point a significant holder will want
to get out, or a significant buyer will want
to get in. jurov will be
there waiting.
jurov: and
this can stay so for several moths
jurov: yes.
the problem is, overpriced order end up above
the 1m offered
mike_c: BingoBoingo watched paint dry last month. it was
the right
thing
to do.
mircea_popescu: ThickAsThieves, it's always dangerous
to imagine
things will forever go
the way
they went
the past month.
ThickAsThieves: you're left basically waiting for your over/underpriced orders
to fill
mircea_popescu: anyway,
take
the ethical end of it : would you rather have drug addicts use clean needles or w/e
they can find in hospital garbage ?
jurov: okay, so.. if
the orderbook/volume keeps staying like
this, i'll just get long
mike_c: 40 years worth so far. 10 more
to go.
mike_c: <back on soapbox> if you have good shareholders, why do you want
them leaving? (i.e. selling)
ThickAsThieves: fwiw, it's common for very little selling
to happen on mpex
jurov: mike_c you're free
to discuss ofc, volume goal stems from me wating
to get something out of it
ThickAsThieves: you have plenty info, but i'm guessing
there is no action on
the books outside 1%
ThickAsThieves: hmm i havent paid attention
to it, but i will say i
think your goal is
to make money while following
the rules, nothing more
mike_c: not
to keep sticking my nose in when you keep asking
TaT, but i don't
think more volume should be a goal.
diametric: He loves you more with ever
toss of a stone.
jurov: "what would
TAT do"
diametric: there we go, at least you're acknowledging
the brutality of your all loving god.
danielpbarron: diametric, yes; homosexuals should be stoned
to death
diametric: danielpbarron: well I should say,
they'll go
to heaven.
jurov: ThickAsThieves i just asked you
to look
to f.mpif order book and some ideas
diametric: danielpbarron: so at
the
time, when being gay was a capital offense, and killing a gay person was legal, if a Christian killed a gay person in Uganda, and believed,
they're in heaven right?
jurov: ok, it's not "well" outside, i
take it back
danielpbarron: diametric, you aren't saved by enforcing
the law.. if you enforce
the law without believing, you are like
the hypocrites Jesus scolded for
trying
to kill
the prostitute
diametric: danielpbarron: up until
that point, it was cool right?
assbot: Uganda Anti-Homosexuality Act, 2014 - Wikipedia,
the free encyclopedia
mircea_popescu: mike_c,
there's also some interest
to allow people be served.
diametric: danielpbarron: killing gays in uganda is legal, so people slaughtering
them still have a
ticket
to heaven?
mike_c: you profit when people want
to
trade away from
the asset's intrinsic value and you allow
them
to.
mike_c: this being
the goal of a good market maker, not a wall street huckster.
mike_c: lots of
trading volume is not a good
thing, or
the goal of a market maker. goal of a market maker should be
to keep
the price near
the intrinsic value of
the asset.
danielpbarron: diametric, because Jesus said
to submit
to
the government authorities, and
they made stoning illegal
diametric: danielpbarron: why are you not out stoning atheists and raping
their wives right now.
jurov: not if
their grandma came from
there
diametric: danielpbarron: its still
the law, and jesus says you should follow
the law, how is
that not clear?
danielpbarron: diametric,
the law has not be abolished; it has been fulfilled. It is still
the law, but salvation is achieved
through belief, not strict enforcement
diametric: I wonder what Jesus's
take on Bitcoin would be.
diametric: danielpbarron: i
think you're in a bindh ere.
mircea_popescu: the correct conclusion being
that a bystander is insane and
the police officer cowardly.
diametric: danielpbarron: 17"Do not
think
that I came
to abolish
the Law or
the Prophets; I did not come
to abolish but
to fulfill. 18"For
truly I say
to you, until heaven and earth pass away, not
the smallest letter or stroke shall pass from
the Law until all is accomplished.…
mircea_popescu: "In
the months of fear and shame
that followed my being charged with contributing
to
the delinquency of a minor, I continuously analyzed my own mind-set
that day,
trying
to understand how I did something
that both a bystander and a police officer considered criminally dangerous, and
the best I could come up with was
the
theory
that I’d been lulled by nostalgia into a false sense of security."
mike_c: jurov: how are you
trying
to make it move? more volume isn't really a goal is it?
diametric: danielpbarron: oh so now
that
the old
testament is hard
to justify in modern
times, you just
throw it away? except you can't, because matthew 5:18 clearly says, from Jesus,
that until heaven and earth are gone, you need
to follow
the law of
the old
testament.
mircea_popescu: all
the many
things
that are STILL not dangerous
today.
mircea_popescu: ious banks, schools and offices, he was left alone in
the front passenger seat of a convertible Mustang for a good portion of his childhood, primarily because he was shy and wanted
to not have
to meet new people. For people of our generation, living a suburban childhood,
the car was central
to our lives, not simply a mode of
transportation but in many ways, an extension of our home.
mircea_popescu: in
the
trunk of
the station wagon on long road
trips. I remember standing up in
the back of my father’s LeBaron convertible while he cruised around
the neighborhood, or spending an hour lying low on
the seat of our station wagon, feet against
the window, daydreaming or reading in crowded parking lots while my mother got groceries or ran other boring errands. One friend
tells me how, from 7-Elevens,
to Kroger,
to var
mircea_popescu: My friends and I sometimes play
this game,
the did-our-parents-really-let-us-do-that game. We recall bike ramps, model rockets, videotaping ourselves setting
toys on fire. Many remember
taking off on bikes alone, playing in
the woods for hours without adult supervision, crawling
through storm drains
to follow creek beds, latchkey afternoons, monkey bars installed over slabs of concrete. My husband recalls forts built
pankkake: you managed
to fuck a billion women and had no kids?
mircea_popescu: i do not wish
to be involved with anything
that annoying.
mircea_popescu: well if i had no other reasons
to not have kids,
this'd be sufficient.
danielpbarron: diametric, it is not a requirement of salvation
to enforce
the law of
the old
testement, but it isn't a bad idea if you can do it
diametric: maybe
the only solution is
to stone yourself
then.
Mats_cd03: lets change
that statistic and gun some children down
danielpbarron: diametric,
that would violate Romans 13:1 Let every soul be subject
to
the governing authorities. For
there is no authority except from God, and
the authorities
that exist are appointed by God.
mike_c: more kids die from
the pool
than from guns.
assbot: Deuteronomy 13:10 ESV - You shall stone him
to death with - Bible Gateway
mircea_popescu: "I know
that a home with an unfenced swimming pool is as dangerous as one with a loaded gun."
diametric: you guys are sure he's not a
troll?
Mats_cd03: you have
to be pretty gullible
to believe in
the bible
jurov: ThickAsThieves:
there?
diametric: danielpbarron: doesn't
that kind of fuck you in
the end, you're going
to hell whether you like it or not
diametric: danielpbarron: but doesn't
the bible also say honoring wicked people is a sin?
danielpbarron: but anyway;
to answer
the question: yes I would honor my parents even if
they are wicked (mine happen
to be currently)
diametric: danielpbarron:
the bible says it should be
mircea_popescu: do you acknowledge you now have
to obey him and so on ?
diametric: acknowledging
the legitimacy of
their marriage.
diametric: danielpbarron: so
then you agree since
the law in
the US allows gays
to marriage, you must submit?
danielpbarron: stoning someone
to death is against
the law in
the US, and
the Bible says
to submit
to
the governing authorities
mike_c: a
true father would advocate
the stoning
to death of a christian son.
danielpbarron: chetty, it's all one;
the whole Bible is essential
mircea_popescu: talks back
to quite ancient
tradition. 6 millenia or more.
mircea_popescu: but for
that matter,
the catholic contemporary instistence on "raising
the children in
the church" and promising
to do so
