mircea_popescu: but why stop
there. make doom coin :
the proof of work is sat-proving
the actual coin codebase. all of it. including
the pow part.
jurov: and miners would decide if
they want
to do it
jurov: so, i'd broadcast a special
transaction "whoever sat-solves
this input will get
these coins"
jurov: then one would spend coins
to specify desired input
to be combputed by solver
jurov: heh, reading
that scrollback.. got an idea
that maybe specifying sat solver itself as work function could work
mircea_popescu: anything short of programmable workfunction will lead
to a cat'n'mouse game rather expensive and unproductively unpleasant for all involved. << i
think you underestimate
the prevalence of masochists in
the bdsmitcoin community.
Vexual: jurov if youve got youy hearing aid in
this is outta
time
truffles: this is
the beginning of decline for
todays links isnt it
truffles: music must
take u somewhere imo
truffles: to convince some1
to go
to her concert stead of metallica hmmm
truffles: ill
try
to avoid hearing her speak, she was a good student if she learned
that at skool
truffles: ive never had a
type, i feel lucky
ozbot: Amy Winehouse - Back
To Black (Live Acoustic) - YouTube
ozbot: Amy Winehouse - Back
To Black - YouTube
ozbot: QUEEN IFRICA / Lioness on
the Rise - YouTube
truffles: oh nm
tis is
the one without jz
truffles: i only like
the chorus for
that
ozbot: Bob Dylan -
Thunder On
The Mountain - YouTube
truffles: did u understand
the words she sang?
truffles: i see
the quote about
the bell
tolls, but
the wording is different ldo
truffles: i see no contradiction with
the "no man is an island"
truffles: "His images of sickness, vomit, manure, and plague reflected his strongly satiric view of a world populated by all
the fools and knaves of England."
truffles: Donne argued
that it was better
to examine carefully one's religious convictions
than blindly
to follow any established
tradition, for none would be saved at
the Final Judgment, by claiming "A Harry, or a Martin
taught [them]
this."
Vexual: yeah you're not authorised
to drink
Vexual: its not all eyeshadow and pussy, ill asure you
that
Vexual: i dont
think most arceaologists interested in egypt could answer
that with any certainty
truffles: and
tombs got raided on
top of it
Vexual: how did a pharoah
think?
truffles: i was going
to use his quote but
that hemingway version was better
mircea_popescu: doesn't understand jack shit it's saying, but
that's not part of
the scoring card anymore.
mircea_popescu: yes, well, google is probably able
to read and write
too,
these days.
truffles: which meaning are u
trying
to go for
then
mircea_popescu: how fascinating
the world of ephemerides, seriously now.
mircea_popescu: look at
the beauty of
that, literate means educated, illiterate means "unable
to read and write and strictly
that".
mircea_popescu: i'm not changing it. i'm simply not acquiescing
to
the change you propose.
Vexual: im defo gonna buy
that old italian storybook now i hear
there is a newtranslation
truffles: if u want
to change
the meaning of predefined words go ahead
mircea_popescu: being able
to read or write doesn't make you literate any more
than being able
to css makes you a programmer.
truffles: hmm i
think we need
to learn english
truffles: il·lit·er·ate a person who is unable
to read or write.
Vexual: its all
the female hormone
mircea_popescu: and
the world will exist just fine long after we won't even remember your shitty republic ever was
truffles: bob dylans voice i dont like
too much
truffles: why not look for quotes like
that
talking about empathy
Vexual: my cigarette packet
tells me australia is
the smallest continent
truffles: No man is an island, entire of itself; every man is a piece of
the continent, a part of
the main. If a clod be washed away by
the sea, Europe is
the less, as well as if promontory were, as well as if a manor of
thy friend's or of
thine own were. Any man's death diminishes me, because I am involved in mankind; and
therefore never send
to know for whom
the bell
tolls; it
tolls for
thee.
VanCleef: so i just hope he finds someone
to
truely love oneday
VanCleef: sometimes we just want someone
to hug
truffles: why r u wanting him
to find love now
mircea_popescu: im starting
to understand why romantic comedies sell so well.
they really managed
to create
their own captive market huh.
VanCleef: i dont want
the sickness
to completely
take over
that sweet young man i use
to know before all
this bitcoin stuff
VanCleef: just promise me you'll keep an open mind and when
the
time is right a open heart?
mircea_popescu: it;s supposed
to be a good feeling for me, not for you.
truffles: i believe in moderation, i dont recognize
that view ure posing
VanCleef: i hope its something you get
to experience oneday
truffles: a world where every1 just
takes
mircea_popescu: truffles nope. i dislike
the sort of lazy fuckwit who imagines magic works. which is what you're
trying
to do with "Empathy" and
this guy is
trying
to do with "twu wuv", create some sort of magical amulet
that'll save you from having
to, you know, live.
truffles: i managed
to get
to sentence 2 , so basically u hate empathy?
mircea_popescu: yes, well, when you were
three you probably ate your own shit,
too.
VanCleef: if i was mp id jerk off
to myself in front of
the mirror
too
VanCleef: are you in love at
the moment?
Vexual: yeah and when
there was nothing
to do
they built pyramids
VanCleef: not as rich as MP
tho who could buy and sell your family 10
times over
mircea_popescu: thanks
to all
the inequality fightin', bout one in
ten us folk are homeless, one in
three yurepan kids are unemployed or unemployable and so on.
VanCleef: since you bought all
their houses ya
mircea_popescu: that wouldn't be very practical. i can only get it up what, a few
times a day ?
truffles: ur flow of
thought often seems disconnected, i dont usually get it
mircea_popescu: VanCleef i only help homeless people if
they're female, kinda young, kinda cute and really, really into it.
Vexual: i don't
think he'd give away a kidney, it might be a drain on
the economy
truffles: i dont like reading ur blog, it seems u dont put much effort into
the grammar
VanCleef: he use
to go around helping homeless people and even gave a kidney
to his best friend
truffles: money seems
to change ppl, but i suspect not him heh
