ThickAsThieves: <+mircea_popescu> ThickAsThieves http://www.therealaltcoin.org/ << how abouit link to bitcointa.lk instead ? // wish granted
mircea_popescu: what are these footnotes, like car pedals ?
mircea_popescu: <mike_c> i could write faster but I'd have to use footnotes <<< ahahah
asciilifeform: 'the attack requires sophisticated tools to extract the encryption keys, making it practically impossible for most people.'
BingoBoingo: mike_c: You must use footnotes the worng way then
mike_c: i could write faster but I'd have to use footnotes
benkay: and don't talk to me about quality nigga i don't buy that shit for half a second
benkay: mike_c's talking shit and posting 1/(2 mos)
bitcoinpete: mike_c: think of it as a worthwhile skill to be acquired
kakobrekla: mp sets the fashion, if i had a blog it would only be footnote but no note.
asciilifeform: bitcoinpete: not sure why they should talk to me. instead, they should talk to the poor schmucks who buy the closed turd. and apologize to them.
BingoBoingo: bitcoinpete: Maybe there are two cups and the average of the two is "half full" yet the cups can grow to greater volumes.
mike_c: easier to write perhaps, but not to read :)
bitcoinpete: mike_c: used to write sans footnote, kinda prefer this way
mike_c: benkay: yeah, other people (bitcoinpete) should take note.

benkay: ;;later tell JorgePasada <JorgePasada> That's why I like this place though. You know how hard it is to find people to have conversations like this with? << why the fuck do you think i dragged your ass in here?
asciilifeform: (cookbook being entirely wrong term here - they studiously avoid teaching how to prepare anything useful in actuality)
bitcoinpete: never did get the grignard reaction to fly
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: I never took American uni Ochem. Now... without any uni Ochem I sat on most of the PharmD curriculum. Secret is... TA while doing gradschool in an unrelated field
asciilifeform: ends up being taught as a compendium of cookbook crap
benkay: good luck learning anything but how to memorize the pretty pictures.
asciilifeform: i highly recommend against (american) uni for undergrad ochem. there, it is used as a 'weedout' test for pre-med kids
benkay: anything, the20year ?
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: Honestly programming confounds me more than arranging carbon
assbot: Voicing the20year for 30 minutes.
BingoBoingo: !up the20year
BingoBoingo: Got highered as a Pharmacy school TA because I knew how to proctor tests.
benkay: <JorgePasada> mircea_popescu: because what they're really saying is "I just want to be able to sell this thing for value without actually having a market to determine what that value is" << DO YOU HEAR THIS the20year ?
benkay: asciilifeform: i would too, were the school of hard knocks so much more to my taste.
asciilifeform: i actually went back to uni for ochem as an adult.
mike_c: holy shit BingoBoingo, you tore it up in Feb.
benkay: no i did not because mechanical engineering in the us apparently doesn't care about ochem
BingoBoingo: benkay: So you know how there are alcohols that aren't proper ETOH?

benkay: mike_c: it's trakking kraken and coinbase
benkay: BingoBoingo: more lectures on topic of organic chemistry plz

BingoBoingo: benkay: You know things that are organic an -OH without being ETOH
mike_c: mircea_popescu: the bloomberg terminal? and it's tracking kraken?? nice.
BingoBoingo: benkay: It gets you all of the nice fusile alcohols, for a better hangover
benkay: kakobrekla: the infernal space between !b and how many
BingoBoingo: Corn has the high protein content necessary for whiskey distillery

mike_c: panacea is back in the game! JD's worst month was -24%.
benkay: fluffypony: my fartner in this entreprederpship exercise
BingoBoingo: There have to be better sources of heat.
BingoBoingo: "Finally, you'll need a source of high heat like an electric hot plate or a propane torch."
asciilifeform: 'Two researchers had made a diode with a very thin, heavily doped n-layer. When the diode was reverse-biased to the point of avalanche breakdown, a small fraction of the avalache electrons actually shot through the n-region and into a vacuum. They made this the e-beam source in a CRT and it worked pretty well. I am surprised that it has not, to my knowledge, made it out of the laboratory.'
mircea_popescu: "totally agree. What dev will do for a sample, if chain will have some bug and he still not got profit to pay real developer for fix?"
benkay: ThickAsThieves: my first big boy gf was a virgin too and blamed me for turning her into a nymphomaniac
benkay: ah, excusemebitch did you just say i can't offer things?
asciilifeform: cuprous oxide, to be exact
BingoBoingo: benkay: In that case can't you offer "Sup' Bitches"
benkay: HEY LISTEN IF I WANT TO USE A TRADITIONALLY GENDERED NOUN FOR A GROUP OF PEOPLE IMMA GON DO THAT MKAY

asciilifeform: 'In the game of chess you can never let your adversary see your pieces.' (zapp brannigan, 'futurama')
kakobrekla: anyway, if anyone is looking for comment, april was a bit hectic, 9 trades actually happed, details are here http://bit4x.com/panacea/history/
BingoBoingo: These things may become more fluid, but...
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: Well, I'm wary of letting people know where I think natural Bid and Ask borders for ATC lie and what price I consider the border between sellable and buyable.
mircea_popescu: ThickAsThieves http://www.therealaltcoin.org/ << how abouit link to bitcointa.lk instead ?
asciilifeform: what's too quantable?
BingoBoingo: With this and the ending balances of the Mid April statement, the ATC/BTC thing should be quantable, but hopefully not too quantable.
ozbot: So… History, the First ATC/BTC statement (Remember Historical) | Bingo Blog
BingoBoingo: So... I bring historical ATC trading results sans commentary
kakobrekla: so now that everyone bought into mpif, i bring to you, by popular demand (mostly mike_c really) a losing month for panacea: -1.78%
asciilifeform: S.NSA to buy its own foundry << just came back from taking exact dimensions of new flat. not quite big enough for foundry. gonna have to be when i che guevara with mp in jungle.
BingoBoingo: Yeah, if anything the limiting factor is that only 5 pcs made sense
mircea_popescu: i'd love more pcs rather than more in these pcs atm
mircea_popescu: tbh i think for now everyone's got enough
mike_c: some profit centers could handle more than others (panacea, JD)
ThickAsThieves: til the report i was wondering if you were gonna through more btc at the managers to play with

BingoBoingo: I wonder if I should post past ATC trading statements stripped of commentary.
ThickAsThieves: just the 200 or so btc and that's that
ThickAsThieves: i like the style of mpif, not too big for its britches
mike_c: i guess the market has decided on a price!
mike_c: kakobrekla, mpex trade socket isn't reporting f.mpif. is that temporary or intended?
