BingoBoingo: I guess I can see concern even with
that nao
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: By online I mean plugged into
the internet. Not
typed into a webapp.
mike_c: i was
trolling
tat before for his footnotes > paragraphs post
BingoBoingo: At least GPG encryption is perfectly safe
to do online.
BingoBoingo: kakobrekla: Not
that I can get
to reproduce
this stuff reliably. ATM I can't encrypt with Geany. I swear I used
to be able
to.
BingoBoingo: kakobrekla: It sucks at encryption without some coaxing. It signs and decrypts fine
though. Great for offline machines.
akstunt600: haave been using melt or diff depending on how mig
the src
trees are, any other recommendations
BingoBoingo: akstunt600: Geany,
the
Text Editor/IDE is great
BingoBoingo: There are better cross platform
tools
than GPA if you need GPG.
akstunt600: yeah like even
to decrypt pub key encrypted messages it was awkward, like
that main window should have been
the spot
to drag and drop msgs
to encrypt/decrypt
BingoBoingo: akstunt600: Well,
the
thing is it isn't a deep commandline exercise at all. It's just one where
the GUI's hide
the good options.
akstunt600: oh well its just nice
to have gui
to go off of
akstunt600: Well luckily i have used and installed PGP server for an enterprise and used gpg numerous
times
BingoBoingo: I prolly should have paused
to word more carefully, but really
the CLI is
the only way I've found
to adequately keygen with
the right options
mircea_popescu: oh.
thing read
to me as impossible
to use cli
to do it.
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: All of
the GUI
tools I
tried for Key generation suck by restricting options.
BingoBoingo: It is neigh impossible
to do good GPG key generation off of
the commandline
akstunt600: Hmm it used
to work fine for me in windows way back when, but
that was last year
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: I doubt Cardano would get
that kind of attention. Loper box might
though.
ozbot: F.MPIF, April 2014 Statement pe
Trilema - Un blog de Mircea Popescu.
kakobrekla: but but
their logo, its so professional.
Franktank_: Actually I have no idea, I do miss
the input of MPOE-PR on
the Securities subform.
kakobrekla: do you believe
that mircea is a chick or a prick wearing lady avatar or ??
csshih: why is it
that everyone I've sold btc/hardware
to has done all
the right
things and is now wealthy
mircea_popescu: idem,
these f.mpif books ain't gonna cook
themselves...
JorgePasada: mircea_popescu: I see, I
think I'm blurring
the lines and blending
two separate discussions
together. I'll re-read
that post later,
think about it and get back
to you when i've got a more concise version of what it is I'm
trying
to say.
JorgePasada: mircea_popescu: What about how an individual chooses
to allocate
their
time?t
BingoBoingo: And when
the
time
tuns out you probably won't be able
to again until someone gives you voice again
mircea_popescu: JorgePasada well
there's no economics at
the individual level
mike_c: BingoBoingo: ah,
thanks. i will digest.
JorgePasada: That's why I like
this place
though. You know how hard it is
to find people
to have conversations like
this with?
JorgePasada: We're in agreement almost completely. Figuring out
the almost is interesting
though, and productive. Being wrong is
the only way
to learn, and if I'm wrong I'd like
to know sooner rather
than later.
JorgePasada: Yep, and I agree with all of it, especially when applied
to
the market or any kind of aggregate group. I just
think I might have some differing opinions when it comes
to
the individual level.
Trying
to
think
them out and find a better way
to articulate what exactly it is I'm
thinking.
mircea_popescu: that's
the entire point
there,
to push economy from its current state of shamanism and alchemy
to actual science.
mircea_popescu: its niot like
the patient "hath brought pox upon himself, for his sins" or anything.
mircea_popescu: medicine,
the actual kind, was born once people finally realised intent don't enter into it,
mircea_popescu: the notion
that intent is economically relevant is in no way different from proposing it be medically relevant
JorgePasada: mircea_popescu: Isn't
that kind of divorcing
the act from
the actor?
mircea_popescu: JorgePasada useful, if you want ot marry
them. not economically .
BingoBoingo: jordandotdev: You are
talking about management nao.
JorgePasada: The
thing people forget is you're always analyzing intent
through, at minimum,
two very subjective biased filters. 1) Your perspective 2)
Their Actions.
JorgePasada: I'd agree with
the statement intentions are worthless in general, and always when applied
to
the aggregate.
BingoBoingo: Well, becoming married
to
their ideas is part of what makes
them idiots
mircea_popescu: circular fucking reasoning at its best.
talking
to your average schmuck on any
topic reduces
to doing marriage counselling with idiots, for free.
mircea_popescu: GS: words against him are isolating? what about
the words he said?"
mircea_popescu: "BP: discrimination is
to say
that something is apart from other
things.
The words and actions against him are isolating, hence discriminatory
JorgePasada: So,
then I guess a follow up. Would you say intent has any relevance at all in economics?
JorgePasada: and at worst, justification for some
terrible shit
JorgePasada: either way
the point remains
that all
the further down
the chain you can quantify is
the pattern
JorgePasada: That's another way of saying
the same
thing, or maybe it's
the next step down
the chain
mircea_popescu: "if being rich doesn’t buy you freedom of speech, you’re rich in
the wrong place and at
the wrong
time." << not bad.
JorgePasada: and he's
trying
to wrap it up all nice and neat and objectify it into something
that can be cold, cool and calculated and make him feel all safe and warm inside
JorgePasada: The guy who you're
taking
the excerpts from seems
to miss (or be
terrified of
the fact)
that all
the questions he's asking and
the points your making come back
to one
thing
mircea_popescu: "makes little difference
to
the
tree which way
the wind blows. all
that matters is how strongly" sorta
thing
mircea_popescu: i have no investment in your emotional investment. consequently, whether you wish or fear is all
the same
to me.it's merely
the amplitude
that interests, not
the direction.
JorgePasada: Amusingly,
there’s no difference between
these
two :)
JorgePasada: It certainly isn’t wishful
thinking, it’s rather fearful
thinking,
mircea_popescu: danielpbarron: has anyone in here ever floated
the idea of bringing
the WoT
to
twitter? << i dun
think i'd want
that really. but maybe a gpg-based ircitter may be interesting.
ozbot: A complete
theory of economics pe
Trilema - Un blog de Mircea Popescu.
JorgePasada: I
think I get what you're saying but, clarity is always good
mircea_popescu: fluffypony: is
there a firm love for sha256 as an algo? << 512.
mircea_popescu: my current
thinking is
that any approach
to economy
that's not agent-agnostic is nonsense.
JorgePasada: Buyers/speculators are essential
to market health
mircea_popescu: same
thing here, everyone with a keyboard figures he could be picking
the music, why not.
