<< Scripture teaches that a person can believe in vain (1 Corinthians 15:2), receive the grace of God in vain (2 Corinthians 6:1), and even be sanctified by the blood of the covenant (Hebrews 10:29), and still end up in hell (Revelation 21:8). If a person's life questionably matches wh
danielpbarron:
<+handsomesally> so in So the Pharisees said to one another, "You see that you are not doing any good; look, the world has gone after Him." John 12:19 everyone in the world went after him?
<< the key words here might be, "the Pharisees said"
danielpbarron:
<+handsomesally> thats a lie, John 3:16 greek is kosmos and it dosent mean everyone

<ThickAsThieves> but the alternative would be to advertise x-bt more
<< this can't hurt.
mircea_popescu:
<ThickAsThieves> you heard it here first, Kate-Craig is gonna default on the ciphermine.b1 bond
<< such a successful business-ex-man ?!
mircea_popescu: face the 'bitterness of loneliness' in old age"
<< this is quite true, he has a point.
ThickAsThieves:
<+fluffypony> ThickAsThieves: what you doing with Cryptsy? getting ATC listed? /// well i'm emailing support for the seconf time about it, but this time to see if they'll add it to a special page they have for letting community vote on what to add next. this mechanism also has a way to pay for votes (i havent done the math)
mircea_popescu: fluffypony: IRC meets blockchain technology
<< actually if you want to do something useful, provision a server (ie, the actual hardware), donate its use to the freenode people (they have a special page)
mircea_popescu: mdev: he may try and make nice nice to get voice then drop his link
<< so what if he does lol. bitcoin is backed by lulz.
mircea_popescu: TheNewDeal: are you a bot?

<< what's wrong with 1.0011^x like sane people ?
mircea_popescu:
<pankkake> what's more unfortunate, is that things where it is actually useful, like domain names and certificates
no one cares
<< this IS sad.
mircea_popescu: mdev: makes it hard to sell them, considering their increased value over time
<< this is the point where it stfus and goes read the log for the rest of 2014.

mircea_popescu: Mats_cd03: north koreans shouting ones and zeros into telephones have better uptime
<<< yes well, there's a reason i've not seen three digits on a bill for years and years.
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo: EFF seems to suffer from the librarian view of technology, hard to tell if they are stooges or unaware.
<< eff is a large donation based org. it has the limitations and blind spots that flow from that. it's useful for what it's iuseful, it's not the pope of electronic freedom. juust a tool.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform: hope there are no btc sniffing dogs
<< laugh, but i bet some bozo is working on ferreting out 'kulaks' through pheromonal sensing of one kind or another. fellow who walks around knowing he's loaded, probably can be smelled, in principle
<< women can definitely smell me.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform: ^ mircea_popescu, chetty: can you comment?

mircea_popescu: asciilifeform: a kind of 'soft' deindustrialization.

mircea_popescu: mdev: the public key argument thing, about it being exposed after the first transaction, not sure why that's an issue, RSA is based off handing out public keys, I know bitcoin uses ECDMA or whatever, but still if the public key can't be trusted
<< because cargo cult sekoority.
mircea_popescu: benkay: bitcoin "devs" are idiotically and self-destructively committed to this "no reuse" idea, ever since implementing the braindead wallet schema that creates new addrs for your change
<< it's not that bad of an idea. the problem is that they misrepresent it as a central point of protocol, when it's merely a marginal helper tool thing. sorta like people thinking all carpenter tables must also have a vase on them
mircea_popescu: pankkake: though it is definitively a weird idea
<< no argument there.
mircea_popescu: benkay [...]
<< i only ever found 1 acceptable cup in bsas

<BingoBoingo> Especially all of the "craft beers" that are born the same place place as Busch lite, Coors, and Miller. It's also a field where... Neigbhors producing fould products in the basement is increasing. // in the beer case, that 'fould' is far superior to that coming out of the mass-produced garbage
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: "I have a suspicion that the entire scheme is vulnerable to Gödelization."
<< I like how you raised this in 2010 and the problem of this in Urbit has only grown...

<< let me ruin your day for you. coffee in argentina ? comes PRE SWEET$ENED. and i don't even mean the bags. i mean the MOTHERFUCKING BEANS;. they sugar-cook them.
<< i only ever found 1 acceptable cup in bsas
benkay:
<xmj> i'll subtly neg them by asking about their company's economics. "so... are you cashflow positive?" is king. // the subtlety's always lost and generally pointless. their feelings aren't worth protecting. go for the jugular.
