BingoBoingo: Feels so good to IRC drunk again
thestringpuller: yes they do. it's not what we do, but what we leave behind...
thestringpuller: the hustle is all that matters
BingoBoingo: Second stint I picked up a Master's, first stint I picked up a sense for the hustle
thestringpuller: man i don't even know if i have the fortitude to attempt it
BingoBoingo: If I could pick two years of life to do over it would have been the first run at grad school
BingoBoingo: Honestly of all the Cardinals starters the one who is best to watch is Joe Kelly, but he is on the DL and staying ther until someone else gets injured
thestringpuller: i can't believe that guy is my age...
BingoBoingo: Sucks when you have a lance Lynn though
thestringpuller: My dad complains about that a lot about the Braves...
BingoBoingo: thestringpuller: It isn't me. It's that Matheney never skips rotation spots.
BingoBoingo: Of course with the current rotation that lines up as Lynn, Miller, Garcia for Friday, Saturday and Sunday respectively.
BingoBoingo: Of course the weekend after the Rays series the Cardinals play the Cubs.
BingoBoingo: (Math consisted of moving the mouse from day to day on the calendar and saying (Waino, Wacha... Lynn, Miller, Garcia...) in rhythm

BingoBoingo: Dude broke an aluminum bat with a pitch sometime during the state playoffs.
BingoBoingo: Odorizzi is the one thing my Highschool did right (a few years after I graduated there)
BingoBoingo: thestringpuller: I'll try to do some rotation math. The day after the last Rays game is probably the Combine demolition derby in my home town, but I dunno if you can take that much white trash.
thestringpuller: hmm sounds like it's meant to be
BingoBoingo: thestringpuller: So apparently in late July the Rays come to StL. Could be some interesting games if Odorizzi is pitching.
BingoBoingo: So picking a date for a Waino or Wacha game would be awfully feasible through the end of the regular season
Vexual: game every time
BingoBoingo: If there is one thing Matheney knows other than hating porn, he never skips rotation spots
thestringpuller: they are both fun to watch

asciilifeform: that there is no public proof of this taking place does not change the fact.
asciilifeform: the most profitable means of obtaining mining hardware remains: to sneak hashing core onto a die that is being fabbed anyway, for some unrelated purpose.
thestringpuller: all mining bonds have depreciating returns over time..
BingoBoingo: ASICminer started differently hence the 0.1BTC to 6 BTC share price, but the introduction of efficient markets knocked them down.
asciilifeform: i.e. hashing power of non-public asic projects, disguised as whatever you want (as 10,000 gpu folks, say) via means familiar to any spammer.
thestringpuller: does that make it a house of cards? one day the difficilty plummets when the cards fall?
asciilifeform: this is not even touching the subject of 'dark matter'

asciilifeform: 1) collect usd, coin, whatever from chumps 2) bake chips 3) mine for six months, boost difficulty 4) profit !!11! 5) hand over now-marginally-useless hardware to idiots
thestringpuller: ASIC's still exist tho, just piss poor managed...
asciilifeform: thestringpuller: look into how every asic run to date was paid for.
asciilifeform: that seems to be the alpha and omega of mining as a field.
