bitcoinpete: helping the poor with us gov corps isn't helping them at all
bitcoinpete: "Net neutrality, in other words, would not only keep the poorest offline, it would keep investment in poor-country telecom infrastructure down for longer."
bounce: I'm not sure that's a valid premise
bitcoinpete: "You may think that walled-garden access to Facebook or Google is inferior to neutral Internet access—and you’d be right. But if the neutralistas got their way, people in developing countries wouldn’t have better Internet access; many of them would have nothing"
pankkake: MarieLynn: you really do ALL THE THINGS!!
pankkake: it made a way more social person, for sure. that and alcohol
MarieLynn: But I was in all the committees at college, no time for class.
MarieLynn: I've dropped out of college TWICE!!
MarieLynn: I do everything in Web. I have held all the jobs!
MarieLynn: Before that I was a tour guide across North America, I started at 18. And a nanny too :)
asciilifeform: but it is not strictly necessary to attend college to learn this.
asciilifeform: there are also useful things that one can pick up, like the art of working with your head for a week straight without sleep.
pankkake: is there anything to learn in college anyway? :)
asciilifeform: MarieLynn: no time to study << at american unis, there are special fake classes for athletes. with no attendance checks, homework, or exams...
MarieLynn: I am really glad unpaid athletes are getting national attention for their cause. They get tuition but no time to study... dumb...
bitcoinpete: "Consider how the Catholic Church might have mitigated some of the deep pain caused by its abusive priests had it acted with the kind of boldness shown by N.B.A. Commissioner Adam Silver. Instead, it chose cover-ups, denial and blame shifting — the usual default modes for institutions trying to protect themselves." << default of institutions that last
assbot: Voicing tris for 30 minutes.
kakobrekla: !up tris
mike_c: i agree with naggum in a lot of ways, but i ended up in python instead of lisp. i was just writing a C module for python and it was a brutal reminder of much time and energy is spent making sure i didn't miss dereferencing something in some random error case that would cause a leak, etc.
asciilifeform: mike_c: well, eventually he got down to 0 words.
mike_c: can naggum say anything in less than 1000 words?
pankkake: it's never working the first time. you just haven't found where it goes wrong
kakobrekla: give it some time to break.
mike_c: hmm.. it's always scary when you build something semi-complicated and it just works the first time.
kakobrekla: i guess i should watch that.
bitcoinpete: more interested in drive-thrus, segregation, and surviving hurricanes than crypto
ozbot: Poor and Stupid - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
bitcoinpete: kakobrekla: a very specific subset of them, southern amuricans
kakobrekla: isnt nascar like the idiot central ☟︎
kakobrekla: well MarieLynn get them to write spec
kakobrekla: no no nevermind i said that Apocalyptic .
MarieLynn: I have decades of project and staff management experience so I do not expect to work in bitcoin as a developer. Bitcoin needs leadership and guidance for its 22 year old employees!! I have lots of experience developing talent 19-25
kakobrekla: and im John Travolta ?
pankkake: yes, well; keep the fiat jobs, buy coins / create the right bitcoin market for you
MarieLynn: Difference is people will come to me without effort for fiat jobs but I have to wheel and deal like crazy for bitcoins with 22 year olds... it's not the same market.
pankkake: perhaps getting a good paying fiat job should be your immediate priority then
MarieLynn: I need the money dude I mistakenly thought that going into bitcoin would get me bitcoins... like more than 1 LOL
pankkake: well, don't get paid in bitcoin if you don't intend to hold, really
ThickAsThieves: i think bitcoins are just millions of satoshis in disguise
MarieLynn: For me it's hard to know, there is always a fricking bitcoin dip right after I get paid!!

ThickAsThieves: golden turds
MarieLynn: do you guys think bitcoins are golden eggs or turds?
kakobrekla: the story of golden turd
MarieLynn: Kinda goes with the story..
MarieLynn: well, yes, technically, these birds have only one hole so they are either turds or eggs LOL
mike_c: no, that goose is definitely shitting bitcoin.

kakobrekla: golden turdmeister is what i see.
MarieLynn: I made a t-shirt
MarieLynn: Hey you guys, can you pause calling eact other pussies to look at another animal? :P
mike_c: pankkake: i know. the thought process of whoever wrote those.. it's painful to think about.
kakobrekla: yeah, well the stigma did not create itself
pankkake: mike_c: that whole campaign… ugh :(
ThickAsThieves: is there poster for that?
kakobrekla: yeah well tell that to lampelina when she wants me to remove a spider or such.
mike_c: tsk tsk kakobrekla. http://i.huffpost.com/gen/1755239/thumbs/o-YOU-DONT-SAY-570.jpg?2
ThickAsThieves: is there an iority for meta?

pankkake: I just want to rotate it for some reason
thestringpuller: let me tell you a story about a henchman named speedy
MarieLynn: Bacău mostly this one is my favorite piece of Romanian Art https://www.dropbox.com/s/i1pfi2vnfuhizl6/2014-05-02%2015.36.54.jpg
pankkake: "let me tell you a story…" contradictor falls asleep, win by default
pankkake: I thought your technique was to drown in words
mircea_popescu: but I try to make my statements harder to contradict while keeping them absurd enough
pankkake: what's pussy about that?
mircea_popescu: http://pankkake.headfucking.net/2014/05/02/yo-bitcoin-assets-i-put-contrarianism-in-your-contrarianism/ << here's pancake trying to rebrand being a pussy as being a gadfly.
mircea_popescu: pussies have a big heart because all the cocks coming in and out enlarge it in the end.
MarieLynn: Mircea, thanks for the Tweet. I used to buy a lot of art from Romania, I kept the cute export papers in French :)
kakobrekla: i was accused of same, then told pussies have a big heart. so go with that.
mod6: im slow typer too :/
mircea_popescu: everybody fucking types faster than i can
kakobrekla: you mean you like to sound like a pussy
pankkake: I try to make my statements harder to contradict while keeping them provocative enough
fluffypony: thestringpuller: depends on the product, but for personal loans we get shafted here :/
mircea_popescu: <kakobrekla> pankkake most = any << defo. there's what, like a dozen girls here.
mircea_popescu: <pankkake> if the second ones get something out of the company, even at the expense of the firsts, I'd be happy << need a company first.
kakobrekla: prolly same goes for mps conf, but that is saved cause of the low attendance count overall :D
mircea_popescu: ;;rate MarieLynn 1 she's been failing at succeeding for decades now. that takes mettle.
pankkake: I'd think b-a has a higher female ratio than most bitcoin channels
pankkake: Missouri Securities Division sending the issuer a letter. not much more is known
fluffypony: pankkake: what's this 4 year investigation thing? playing catch up

pankkake: and by expense I mean that when the first ones sue, there will be nothing left, not that they would have gotten anything by playing nice
pankkake: if the second ones get something out of the company, even at the expense of the firsts, I'd be happy
ozbot: [ActiveMining] Official Shareholder Discussion Thread [Moderated]
pankkake: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=462370.2720 is getting interesting. there are still some strongly delusional people, but some others are actually considering doing SOMETHING (next page)
fluffypony: which is why everyone checks the logs - http://log.bitcoin-assets.com
fluffypony: but we're all on different timezones
MarieLynn: Is this a 24/7 thing or do you have mneetup times?
pankkake: I learned truly nothing by altcoining. My code even made GCC emit warnings and I didn't care
MarieLynn: Wouldn't that put you above the average alt coin developer Fluffy? :)
fluffypony: I'm much better at being an A to all the Ds on the forum
ThickAsThieves: 1 altcoin is already stretching the attention span
MarieLynn: Do any of you want to co-found a 100% new coin concept? It's going to be super fun. Right now we need a crypto-educated developer (wallets) but the rest we have already written.
fluffypony: that should tell you everything you need to know
