mircea_popescu: avenue B : it's good enough, he gets the task of making fifty game sprites
as so and so, and how much would he like to be paid for this ?
mircea_popescu:
as far
as i can see, it's trivial do distinguish C from B. seeing how teh B need me to become A... no brainer.
mircea_popescu: i will at least be able to say (
as so many times before), hey community ? you had your opportunity.

jurov:
as opposed to us, where the gold just went *poof* and can't be replaced by paper easily

jcpham:
As a proof of concept we used this approach to control
Gizmo: Yes, I was a believer until i seen a post where someone in his are asked to visit him and he said he could n a number of weeks

as long
as anyone's paying any attention
dub: rly, locals are plain dumb
as fuck
mircea_popescu: tbh i think it's convincing proof
as it is. most agencies wouldn't sneer at a few mn extra budget.
Neil: I wonder if $100m is stealable money is incentivizing anyone to try and crack ECDSA (the old coinbases are stealable,
as are addresses with non-zero balance that have been spent from at least once).
Neil: Point is, only Satoshi has the key, and the whole network won't accept it
as it's not in the tx-hash network wide.

as a mix between a giant human, an octopus and a dragon, >>> and i thought u were just hitting buttons
mircea_popescu: personally i would prefer "You suck."

mircea_popescu: except if you contemplate your software ever beeing used by low information idiots (such
as for instance govt employees)
dub: mircea_popescu: I've been playing a bit of PoE again, much more fun
as a witch
Diablo-D3: inhies: bootstrap and foundation are equally

jurov: hah, it's registered
as reality company
jurov:
as full KYC is required.
mircea_popescu: teh site itself doesn't strike me
as the actual thing, but hey.
mircea_popescu: the idea is wtf is wrong with people, they don't have a business but imagine organising conferences is the solution, they don't have a clue (
as to the history, for instance) but they imagine being loud is the solution etc
jurov: and i didn't seemed
as scammer to them :D

as it's easier, and then you get better quickly. At the start it's hard because your language is so shit no-one wants to talk to you in Japanese.
zebedee_: Seeing
as I've spent a large proportion of my adult life here, and still not feeling like I belong somewhere else.
furuknap: Heck, we even pay women to fuck here,
as long
as they get pregnant after a while. It's silly, really. they get tens of thousands of US$ to have a kid. Who the fuck can afford such ridiculousness?
furuknap: [23:35] <zebedee_> I think the west is fucked. The future is Chile, Vietnam, Norway, Singapore, Thailand, etc. At least relatively. >
As a Norwegian, I sadly concur, but it's due to luck, not skill. Norwqy is the fucking luckiest place on earth.
zebedee_: I wonder how long it'll be until I'm accused of being Satoshi, seeing
as I speak good English, live in Japan, and am a C/C++ programmer interested in BTC :)
