as well.
dub: same
as 'key M has traded with pirateat40 and imsaguy'
dub: sure there are instances where its broken but you apply the same process
as teh gribble wot
mircea_popescu: you go ask those you trust from that list
as to the what and decide
as to trust.
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: Should people really still be using PGP
as an acronym. I figure it is better to bury it with GPG references.
mircea_popescu: musicians
as a group will need a dude who can testify to their reputation among plumbers
jurov: i'm tired and decided not to do stuff at such ungodly hour
as 5am
bidji: You realise it's share in a trading exchange? So more people on it, more fee revenue. Simple
as that
KRS-: kleeck: puppet
as in puppet labs?
ThickAsThieves: stinkavag, when i say ponzi, all i mean is that they are not making
as much profit
as are gicing out
bitesak: it smells like and until proven otherwise, it shall or should be treated
as such
kakobrekla: it just wouldnt look
as good with only 60k on the bill.
mircea_popescu: “There is a cult of ignorance in the United States, and there has always been. The strain of anti-intellectualism has been a constant thread winding its way through our political and cultural life, nurtured by the false notion that democracy means that “my ignorance is just
as good
as your knowledge.”
mircea_popescu: in a sense, the tech creates the ontological limits of the discourse. this is not visible
as much in "classical" applications, because somehow it's obvious that your particular abilities to deal with weak nuclear force are involved.
mircea_popescu:
as the implementation becomes less centralised (for instance through the workings of democracy, and lawmakers pushing agendas etc),
mircea_popescu: this distinction doesn't work in bitcoin
as you'd expect.
lurker: anyway, the centralization/decentralizatio n"issue" in bitcoin always struck me
as ironic.
jcpham: in areica there is no such thing
as an adviser
mircea_popescu: kakobrekla the problem is centralisation + security
as a combo.
nubbins`: how many interviewees see it
as yet another test that they must figure out how to pass
KRS-: a degree at the very least shows that someone can stick to something and complete it..for that, comes some value.
as a hiring manager i'd rather see a degree.
nubbins`: "The Brutor takes pride in the troubles of their life because it all adds to their stature. They marvel at failure, such
as bad grades in school, or getting hassled by cops who tell them only to move along. ... Any punishment for his actions becomes a badge and holds no real consequence because jail is holding him back from nothing but killing time"
nubbins`:
as compared to spending time figuring out what you want from life
the20year: I hate hourly pay, so what I typically offer is contract pricing, pay-for-performace models, so
as they get better ,their wages automatically increase, and then if they don't work well they'll quit on their own without dragging down the company too much
nubbins`: completely avoiding the fact that they're
as useless now
as a HS diploma was not long ago
jurov: nubbins`: i'd reject such advice before my 3rd uni year
as outright blasphemous
Vexual: i'd like to imagine they are selling it
as a feature, and teaching the less relevant party to fail at chess in their first and only game
pankkake: do you support Armory signatures for widthdrawal? it seems they are not the same
as the main client
mike_c: hehe. metrosexual is
as fashionable
as gpg.
jurov: well, that gives me a pause... iirc it is not supposed to house very valuable gpg keys such
as mpex accts, cuz no backup and it's too easy to erase
mircea_popescu: sorry for teh delay. the problem with this sort of shit is once the slightest not-working-
as-expected thing pops swaths of things have to now be checked
dexX7: well, they are already looking for investors
as it seems. i filled out the "i'm interested form" and promptly received a mail with a request for a telephone call
mircea_popescu: and
as far
as to the "were traded there" : i can put up a website tomorrow which claims to be trading your mom. this does not imply anything about the actual lady's probity.
mircea_popescu: also it looks scammy
as all fuck, what the hell is that ?
mike_c: er, not that its response is invalidly signed. it doesn't recognize me. (Unrecognized signature. Please email your public key first.) which seems to be same
as you guys were seeing 4 hours ago
mircea_popescu: i will not trust an industrial process, such
as gmo, on the grounds that in centuries of practice it NEVER failed to make the world dangerous for me.
mircea_popescu: benkay i will trust a natural process, such
as viral transfer, on the grounds that in millenia of practice it failed to make the world dangerous for me.
ThickAsThieves: the software agency is considering an office bnearby
as well
jurov: imho these are suitable for established bank, not
as a first thing after they got investment
ThickAsThieves: they have a software consulting co that is handling it all i think,
as a long term partner
jurov: no i understood it
as they creating new team from scratch
ThickAsThieves: I understand. We went through several measures to manage that concern. Surely we could have done more, and we can never prevent outright failure of the business, but we do have a contract with Neo directly that defines our role
as well.
mircea_popescu: i wonder how many of the retarded vcs (defined
as any vc who's not been talking to me, no matter what their mommy told them about how smart they are) realise that the new mo of the start-up scamscene is, get a "seed round", turn it to bitcoin, walk away with the wallet a year later.
mircea_popescu: ahem. so basically all future bitcoin incvome of the us will be reported
as allegedly confiscated from this guy ?
nubbins`: the great thing about self-publishing is that you can be
as obscene
as you want, and nobody cares
nubbins`: and i spent 5 years working
as a web dev
kakobrekla: CVM recognizing btc
as currency cause borred.
kakobrekla: Yesterday the acting president of CVM, the securities regulator for Brazil, signed a decision ordering the administrator of “Grupo de Investimento Bitcoin” to suspend what the regulator describes
as an investment fund.
ChaangNoi: i think he means the hoover dam
as in the complex, if you did not know they produce hydro electric powere there. saw it myself 2 weeks ago.
dexX7: hehe yeah, i wonder when bitcoin or bitcoin mining will act
as innovation driver
mircea_popescu: long long ago on a planet far far away, known only
as "this spring"
pankkake: now most of them have bitcoin options, some
as the default donation option
pankkake: The Somaliland shilling is the official currency of Somaliland, a self-declared republic that is internationally recognized
as an autonomous region of Somalia.[5] The currency is not recognized
as legal tender by the international community, and it currently has no official exchange rate.
Diablo-D3: bob____:
as long
as he allows americans and american companies to list
jurov: um, i last daytraded on mtgox maybe year ago. there are more interesting things (such
as attempts to tape paint s.nsa)
BingoBoingo: Pragmatism in the tradition of James (and Pierce would distinguish himself by surrendering pragmatism to the label or pragmaticism) isn't quite the utilitarianism of Hume or Dewey
as it is often presented though. So long
as you stop reading James before he goes all Jebus, and spz world peace.
mircea_popescu: and i don't think dewey ruined anything. i think dewey just "cut through the cuts that were there"
as the old azn story goes.
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: I took a seminar on the Kritik der reinen Vernunft where after covering the transcendental aesthetic and analytic the professor just stopped. The transendental dialectic, pure reason, and the doctrine of method remained. In a graduate seminar where physical hunger ought be expected of the students. Thus I stopped taking academic philosophy seriously
as covered in the program.
mircea_popescu: it's funny, they go to all this trouble to make school
as much like a prison
as possible, but then fail to take advantage of any of the implicit benefits.
BingoBoingo: Once I finally got internet access programming the computers fell into the backseat and finding pr0n on the computers moved to the fore. A failure of education may be one factor. There is probably also a failure of inflicting hunger
as well though.
mircea_popescu: in point of fact asm is quite transparent and quite transparently used by actually competent programmers, such
as malware creators.
BingoBoingo: Of course.
As are people trying to substitute interpreters for compilers a la the Lisp machine.
BingoBoingo: Yeah. I've only ever dealt with C++, Fortran, and Python in that order. C++ I remember
as fast, fortran was verbose, and I never wrote anything important enough to feel slow though other people's .py programs have.
mircea_popescu: lisp started doing the same thing strictly out of frustration, like the geek that's now wearing a new jockstrap each week maybe he gets to be
as popular with the young ditzes
as the jock
mircea_popescu: retards imagine "all new code" is better,
as if code rusted.
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: A form of Eulora is available. I wonder how many people might want to buy 5+ Demigod or Lich characters in Eulora versus people who might see a need for
as many Cardanos.
BingoBoingo: dub: Most MDMA isn't pure though. It actually gets less pure when powdered and refered to
as "Molly"
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: Ketamine
as well
as Molly test rather well for that purpose in limited studies.
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: Maybe you send some federal magistrates Cardanos
as a promotion?
mircea_popescu: dub i could swear they used it
as antihistamine here in the 90s
mike_c: i.e. your mind still remembers nicotine
as a great way to relieve stress
VanCleef: my dad died
as a terrorist show some respect
mircea_popescu: (
as sooner or later you begin forgetting your earlier patterns)
