nubbins`: the dogs got into a fight and we all started barking at
them
nubbins`: haha how drunk was i when we recorded
this
the20year: Seems like price has gone up
to me
mircea_popescu: totally infantile
these people. and i mean,
the bitcoinwife being a clueless bint is one
thing
nubbins`: well, everything's a burden
to some schmo
the20year: sell wall on bitstamp is about halfway
through
nubbins`: chetty: sometimes my mouth gets
tired, but only when it's a really delicious meal
that i feel i need
to eat quickly
nubbins`: no cowbell, heavy on
the cymbals
tho
nubbins`: because
the drums are so goddamn loud
cazalla: i had so many 4slicetoaster.com websites plastered with
their engrish
cazalla: yeah, i miss
the pre panda/penguin days
the20year: Used
to be quite profitable, I made quite a bit of c oin hiring philipinos
to blog for companies
cazalla: that is
to say i paid indians
to write barely legible shit and wrapped it in adsense
mircea_popescu: cazalla i would guess
the gimmick is
that btc/satoshi is
the husband
cazalla: too outspoken, her husband should do
the speaking yet he is silent
mircea_popescu: people with any smarts need
to be convinced
to start blogs. people who already have blogs... dun wanna use
the noggin. it's a dilemma.
the20year: Maybe we could use
that
type of
theme for rentalstarter...
cazalla: gee i hate
that bitcoin wife bullshit, if
that was my wife, i'd beat her

mircea_popescu: there's like fiddy billion of
these retards who
think
they matter in btc because
they have no life, and so
they "live for bitcoin"
mircea_popescu: i had no idea how well my follow list protects me on
twitter.
nubbins`: although
there's a shockingly high number of really good albums
that come out of it each year
nubbins`: but it's an excuse
to submit a dick surgery
to
the CBC
mircea_popescu: what's so hard about making an album in a month. 3 days/song is over
the average for pro pop
these days.
nubbins`: mircea_popescu: you're only saying
that because you haven't heard it
Duffer1: my haiku is saved
thank you MP
nubbins`: we decided
to make a Dick Surgery album for RPM
this year; listening
to it now
KRS-One: well? who else had a coin named after
them?
nubbins`: so
there's
this
thing called
the RPM Challenge, where interested parties may give
themselves
the
task of writing and recording an album of music entirely during
the month of february
mircea_popescu: fucking despicable abuse of women
to a degree not
the loweliest slave in
the most obscure african harem endures.
mircea_popescu: hunter coin is adorable and she roots out for ken
the most.
Duffer1: ah shit i went 6 on
the second line
mircea_popescu: this is what
the fucktarded activists have reduced
the matter
to.
these are "women in
tech"
Duffer1: @pbaril @bitcoin_girl IMO #MAX, #QRK & #DOGE differ from each other enough
that unless you are day-trading alts, it'd be prudent
to hold all
Duffer1: Mrs.P
TheBitcoinWife @TheBitcoinWife 4h
benkay: so dumb cannot comprehend
their own dumbness
benkay: dumbest in
the world award
ozbot: imgur:
the simple image sharer
mircea_popescu: so as a bonus exercise for he who was smart enough
to find
the important spot, write an alternative future or description of what
the prayer should hgave been
benkay: wtf no deep link
tweets?
Jere_Jones: "No, none
that
thou hast wit enough
to make." lol
benkay: oh my god bitcoinwife
tweet feed or whatever
they call is maybe worse
than btctalk?
the20year: Just say something
that could potentially be
taken
the wrong way and all hell breaks loose
the20year: Don't even have
to do
that 90% of
the
time
mircea_popescu: you call one of
these schmucks names it's like a cataclysmic event in
their little brain.
the20year: Some people can't comprehend
the fact
that
they're supid so
they want
to blame everyone else and call
them names
mircea_popescu: i mean, she
thinks it's because she's a woman, but it's merely because she's dumb.
mircea_popescu: Staunch Bitcoin purists are missing out on
the beautiful decentralization of innovation
that is manifested in altcoins. Real
time evolution!
dignork: mircea_popescu: i assume it's known since it creates a lot of media noise in russian language. media noise can be inflated as well, it just costs more
than "views"
mircea_popescu: dignork
the fact
that user numbers are like "views", ie easily and commonly faked is only known here, apparently.
dignork: mircea_popescu
telegraf app is known, apaprently only in russia
mike_c: the autonomy deal? accounting fraud
that was only found after acquistion
benkay: exits as in everything is ludicrously overvalued everyone going
to cash
this instant?
mircea_popescu: mike_c
there must be some
tax angle in all
this i'm missing.
mircea_popescu: but one can't not stop
to observe
that yo! had you spent five minutes
thinking
things
though on publicly available data,
mircea_popescu: so
they retort
that
telefonica did in fact buy some messaging app
mircea_popescu: so
then i point out
that
telefonica makes 5bn net on 70bn revenue
mircea_popescu: and
they go like o no, old money loses money
through its
teeth.
mike_c: i was reading about HP acquisition of autonomy
the other day. numbers were something like "acquired for $11b. HP wrote off $8B"
mircea_popescu: then i point out
that
this bs deal put
the bar way wya
topo high, which means
there won't be more sales, as old money has more of a clue
mircea_popescu: and armchair generals going "i wonder who's
the next
to buy one of
these. vodafone ?
telefonica ?"
mircea_popescu: this yielded
two results :
telegraf now making noises about how
they added 800k new users in
the past 4 hours
benkay: someone
tried
to compare
their shitty startup
to google at me
the other day
mircea_popescu: benkay consider
this simple point : facebook overpaid by about 99.x% for
that whatsapp
thing.
nicknode: i've always felt im part of
that club,
though i seem
to never recognize
the other members
though
benkay: plus
the mythology and cult worship around google/yahoo/msft/etc
totally
throws everyone's radars out of whack
benkay: so i just realized
the outsized returns of "startups" blind
the average street "angel"
to kelly criteria evaluation
mike_c: more complicated on variable payouts, but
the formulas are not complicated.
mike_c: kelly criterion is simple on a 1:1 payout - you bet your edge.
that is if you have a 60% chance of winning on a 1:1 payout you bet 20% of your bankroll.
nicknode: how much
to bet
then becomes a question of expected value (or rather excess value, or "edge"), variance and account size
benkay: hey guys what's
the notion of estimating how much of your pot
to bet on a
thing of known odds and payout called?
Jere_Jones: "But lend it rather
to
thine enemy, who, if he break,
thou mayst with better face exact
the penalty." lol
