Jason: blackwhite: i hear you're
the squareup man?
artifexd: That doesn't surprise me in
the least.
artifexd: mircea_popescu "Take a picture with a shoe on your head" is a
thing redditors use
to prove
that you are who you say you are.
benkay: yeah
they definitely need less programming
that's for sure
benkay: i don't know man. i
think relationship with
this client calls for a little subtlety
pankkake: oh, right. not a
thing I'd
tell my parents either
benkay: not really a good idea
to say 'fuck it' mid deploy conversation.
pankkake: benkay: why not? unless you don't have enough
to pay
the bills
benkay: i'm staring at my email, billing by
the quarter hour, waiting for someone
to drop
the ball hard enough for me
to call off a deploy on my own.
benkay: i'd rather be hacking on a bitcoin
thing and not getting paid right now.
benkay: you guys want
to hear something stupid?
joecool: mircea_popescu: many of
the girls you post in here lack shoes, i am
trying
to solve a shortage of shoes in pictures
benkay: just a motley collection of individuals, with individual
tastes and preferences.
pankkake: I didn't understand it
that way
benkay: I'm hostile
to unsubstantiated claims.
benkay: what is
this we nonsense
benkay: we're hostile
to unsubstantiated claims.
benkay: but
this zone is filled with scammers who won't substantiate
their claims.
benkay: if you hadn't made a claim,
that'd be a different story.
ThickAsThieves: if you care
to say such
things, what's wrong with proving it?
mircea_popescu: ThickAsThieves i originally asked him because i was going
to give him a 1 if he can prove it, but seems he ignored it for some reason
ThickAsThieves: <blackwhite> no we announced it
today /// you work for Square?
pankkake: and did
the order again, but with another payment method
pankkake: since
they did not read
the
text I was sending
them, I ended up sending a goatse
mircea_popescu: and perhaps, if i feel in a good mood, "get in
the wot"
mircea_popescu: pankkake since bitcoin my response
to any sort of such
thing is lol.
pankkake: I spent a week
trying
to verify my "identity" with a french paypal-like
benkay: gotta have
the business first
tho. no sense in "its gonna work 'cause bitcoin"
mircea_popescu: just
the fact
that nobody can chargeback you and pp can't hold your wallet at ransom and
that;s enough for anyone sane.
benkay: it's like consumer 'any
txn we can get' ------------------------ elite '1
tx of 5m every
two or
three months'
blackwhite: they claim
they saved more
than 10K in fees alone
benkay: either
that or he's playing some crazy game i don't understand.
benkay: in conclusion, i have determined
that
the PMs incompetence is undermining his malice.
benkay: mind you i've already sent
the executive
team
the 'deploy briefing' email i'm in
the habit of sending out before deploys...
benkay: 'HOLD
THE PHONES B I FORGOT
TO INFORM ADMIN STAFF ABOUT DEPLOY WAIT WAIT WAIT'

this afternoon

this pm who'd love nothing more
than
to get my guys fired
benkay: great
tits on
that one
bounce: can't you stuff flash in pdfs
these days?
kakobrekla: pdfs?

to read. gimme flash.
mircea_popescu: He could have
taken off with all
the money right after
the IPO but he didn't."
mircea_popescu: If Danny really wanted
to scam people, he would have done
that right after
the IPO but he didn't. He went ahead and invested money in setting up
the office, hiring staffers, media campaigns, buying POS devices, sending his hired staffers
to conferences and so on.
punkman1: how do you even IPO
twice? sounds like an oxymoron
bounce: too bad for
the US' alies
then
that
the f22 is
too advanced
to be exported even
to NATO partners
Duffer1: wasn't rent
trading halted during
that period?
mircea_popescu: in spite of it
trading around 50ish for
the entire interval ?

the same someone didn't buy 30 btc worth of rent all week
mircea_popescu: "someone" bought 105 btc worth of rent at 0.0075
today,
Mats_cd03: similarly
to how
the f-15 and -16 worked
together in a mix of relative low and high
tech
Mats_cd03: the
two are meant
to work
together as envisioned by
the usaf
Mats_cd03: anyway, a final word regarding
the f-35 vs f-22 conversation...
benkay: or are
they all
the same now?
assbot: Last
trade for RENT on HAVELOCK was at 0.0075 BTC [+]
benkay: now is
that
the old
tranche or
the new
tranche,
the20year1?
mircea_popescu: come one come all, i just kicked inactives and we're down
to like 800 members nao.

mircea_popescu: memo :
teh in-game chat systems are often abused
to move sikrits!
mircea_popescu: so i wonder if
teh numerous sikrit agents dutifully scraping
this are also dutifully scraping my in-guild rift convos.
mircea_popescu: if people's understanding of cuisine are on par with
their understanding of basic economy, suddenly food in
the us is explained.
bounce: re strangecoin, I get
the feeling I can stop reading after
this: ``Of course, when I give you a dollar for a burger
that's not really a zero sum
transaction, because otherwise we wouldn't be motivated
to enter into
the
transaction in
the first place.'' -- conflating currency-mediated
transactions with barter
mircea_popescu: artifexd i dunno, it's been illo
tempore policy
that people accidentally spamming or otherwise unintentionally misbehave contribute
