mircea_popescu: ah. well i wouldn't know "your" system. what you've written so far is coherent with naive nominalism, ie the ideology of all youths. occam requires it be described
as such.
nubbins`: the postal clerk filled out all the customs forms for me. pretty sure they're all marked
as "t-shirt", gift, no cash value
truffles: if only that bitcoin thing could be used
as money

as I can tell, there aren't any real good options when it comes to banks.
nubbins`: and
as a further response, i'd sooner put my eyes out than work in IT again
mod6: ahh i see your comment and reply in that article: I believe that efficiency in computer design is a false god. Give me an “inefficient” but responsive and “Seven-Laws Compliant” computer any day of the week in place of the monstrous PC, that race car which regards steering wheel input
as mere advice and so eagerly speeds off cliffs and into embankments. << hahaha
mod6: ahh,
as far
as leaking key part: Obviously should you reuse the same key to sign a different message you’ll be leaking key bits and eventually your key can be brokenii. << noted.

jurov: pankkake iirc it was revealed
as scam
skinnkavaj: It's not like LTC is going away anytime soon. LTC is here to stay

pankkake: they check
as hard
as porn sites who ask you if you are 18 I guess
deadweasel: they would probably describe themselves
as businessmen.
skinnkavaj: (15:15:57) (skinnkavaj) Will you use Litecoin
as a hedge against a falling Bitcoin in the future?

as the check clears
mircea_popescu: Not everyone in technology wants to flee, though. Catherine Bracy, director of community organizing at Code for America, criticized this genre of thinking
as reflecting a simple lack of exposure by many Valley engineers: Most of them arent confronted with or dont have an understanding of most problems regular people are facing. If they had to collect food stamps or ride the bus or send their kid to public scho

as a result of inervation of the gross motor pathways.
mike_c: then you will probably say "no" at that time
as well :)
mircea_popescu: so, in general mike_c i can see some merit for what you're saying, and in the end things are going to move that way. mpex is in no way given for all time
as it is.
mircea_popescu: let's take a case,
as a for instance. you write 1000 calls @200, deposit 1000 btc.
nubbins`:

as long
as you don't adulterate it
nubbins`:
as in "oh shit, why is this still less convenient than cash"?

as dick surgery, but ya know

as humans, we put sensible limits on things
truffles: "longstanding history
as a borrower"
Namworld: Well I'm looking to borrow BTC in slices of 25 BTC. Anyone interested? I have a longstanding history
as a borrower.

as collateral to trade EUR/USD. hopefully you make profit. you give me back 102 btc.
Namworld: He used to be around more often... Still around but not talking
as much.
Ademan: how does one use BTC
as TP? Do you have to make paper wallets first?
Namworld: It's been one heck of a trip. Mircea now uses BTC

as actual value tranasfer

as well right? Will you be doing PT conversions if that were to happen?

mircea_popescu: they don't have a job anyway, might
as well live somwehre da police ain't husslin them for pot.
mircea_popescu:
as far
as government employees, people on the government dole and unemployable youths are concerned,
mircea_popescu: i could see a situation where he doesn't know how to use it and doesn't trust anyone to. this situation, obviously, can't stand
as an explanation.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform bob____ there's such a thing
as claim analysis. if you make a claim that has about 10% chances that's a 10% chance. if you make twenty claims each with 10% chances that's 10^-18%
topace: SUPERMEGAMININGMEGACORP is pleased to announce our new IPO, to raise $5million dollars to roll out 16nm ASIC MINING in partnership with TSMC. On the 20nm front the wafers are not just in production, there are devices on the market using it that you can buy. No word on the higher performance variants but the SoC process is good to go. 16nm
as the label suggests is still in development and that is

Vexual: i want two of those nsa t's so i can not go to a party
as not something atall
Namworld: Instead of being an open-source currency, ripple is (not sure if it is yet) an open-source ledger of who owes who, with debt used
as money. If that's not an issue in your book...
nubbins`: mildly amusing that all these news stories are talking about "world's first bitcoin atm!", but in canada they're referred to
as ABMs (automated banking machines)
pigeons: ok, seriously, what I don't get. If its okay to open an exchange in the UK so long
as you comply with all Food and Drug Administration safety rules, why did he have to close GLBT?
