benkay: 's where
the buttsecks be,
TestingUnoDosTre.
TestingUnoDosTre: with craigslist, I can
tell someone
that my name is Joe schmoe, I'll be wearing
this or
that, and meet me at
the coffee shop
mircea_popescu: anyway,
the point being
that whether your name is or is not associated with a list of
txn is not contingent on you
typing
the name in
the gpg key gen process
benkay: diametric wants
to be buttsecksd
diametric: I would however pay handsomely for a buttsex button
that worked as advertised.
TestingUnoDosTre: If I go and buy bitcoin,
then sell bitcoin,
then buy bitcoin,
then sell bitcoin, I would much rather have no name associated with
the
transactions
benkay: consider how you might leverage a strong WoT identity
that you explictly control.
mircea_popescu: TestingUnoDosTre
this is roughly
the equivalent of someone not pushing a button because it has "buttsex" written on it.
benkay: eh, you can't afford
true anonymity,
TestingUnoDosTre.
BingoBoingo: TestingUnoDosTre: If you want
to get really fancy you can embed a photo in your public key
too.
TestingUnoDosTre: Because I don't want my name following around my
transactions or what not
diametric: It also makes no claim
to
the authenticity of
the information. You can make
the key for Doc McStuffins if you wanted.
TestingUnoDosTre: I was
thinking
that I would much rather have a higher WoT rating with a key
that did not contain my name and email
BingoBoingo: TestingUnoDosTre: Works just find if you leave
the information out as well
BingoBoingo: TestingUnoDosTre: It's just questions
that it asks, because it can put
that information in
the public key if you want it
there.
TestingUnoDosTre: okay
this will probably illustrate how niave I am, but what's with gnupg keys asking for real names and email addresses?
MisterE: TestingUnoDosTre: check out how long
they've had a ns registration
TestingUnoDosTre: yah I would feel much more confident in a face
to face situation
Mats_cd03: ill add it
to my list of
things

benkay: TestingUnoDosTre: face
to face
Mats_cd03: i
thought it was unsurprisingly mediocre
mircea_popescu: TestingUnoDosTre you gotta read
the girl's write-up on
the wot
benkay: this isn't an internet
thing where
there's a great big easy buy button.
benkay: get
to know
the humans.
benkay: if
their reputation is solid enough,
they don't really benefit from ripping you off for 1k.
TestingUnoDosTre: yes, but couldn't someone just build up a WoT with small
transactions and
then run off with a medium
transaction
benkay: another scenario, someone's committing
to sending you btc for your moneypak or whatever.
benkay: different risk profiles,
though.
Mats_cd03: i like it better
than
the original
tbh
benkay: i can't believe
that I don't have an -otc essay
benkay: see, mircea_popescu and i have rated each other. you can also look at my profile and see with whom i've
traded btc.
benkay: well,
that's
the web of
trust
benkay: go ask in -otc,
TestingUnoDosTre. have cash ready on
the spot, or else
they won't want
to bother with you.
benkay: -otc: "over
the counter".
benkay: the best way
to fund a bitstamp account is with btc :D
TestingUnoDosTre: I've been watching btc, hanging around
the forum for a couple years, but only started purchasing recently
benkay: oh i
thought you'd been around for a few months.
benkay: make your initial btc buy
the right way,
then put
those btc on bitstamp for
trading.
TestingUnoDosTre: fricken Western Union wouldn't let me wire funds
to bitstamp... not sure if
that was a good
thing or a bad
thing
TestingUnoDosTre: Ahhhh I had bought some
the other week at like 450, but I was just so squeemish
decimation: faith
that
they could make it work,? Smith said. ?And
they never did.?
decimation: ?The reports [from
the contractor] just asserted
that
they had written X lines of code. .?.?. For an executive,
that?s just invisible; you don?t know what it means,? said Curtis Smith, who oversaw retirement processing from 1989
to 1994. He was a longtime federal employee with a PhD in English literature, supervising a massive
technology project. ?I had no idea [if]
they were making progress from month
to month. And I just sort of
took it on
MisterE: TestingUnoDosTre: wait until it

the shit mpoe-pr references.
kakobrekla: easy
to compare oneself with dead horse
mircea_popescu: benkay dude you didn't scare
the woman off in private did you ?
mircea_popescu: erg. "You've got numbers of somewhat disillusioned and disenfranchised young men, who may be predisposed
to challenging authority, because
they have nothing invested in it."
mircea_popescu: By
this
time,
the city was swelling with apprentices, and
the adult population was finding
them more difficult
to control, says Barbara Hanawalt. As early death from infectious disease became rarer
the apprentices faced a long wait
to
take over from
their masters. "You've got quite a number of young men who are in apprenticeships who have got no hope of getting a workshop and a business of
their own," says Jeremy Goldb
mircea_popescu: In
the 15th and 16th Centuries, apprentice riots in London became more common, with
the mob
targeting foreigners including
the Flemish and Lombards. On May Day in 1517,
the call
to riot was shouted out - "Prentices and clubs!" - and a night of looting and violence followed
that shocked
Tudor England.
mircea_popescu: "In London,
the different guilds divided into
tribes and engaged in violent disputes. In 1339, fishmongers were involved in a series of major street battles with goldsmiths. But ironically,
the apprentices with
the worst reputation for violence belonged
to
the legal profession."
mircea_popescu: but atm i look more like
the old pic
than
this new one
