http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/16500874 "The proportions of trans 18:1 and n-6 FA were higher (P
<0.001) for both grain-fed beef groups than grass-fed beef. Data from the present study show that grain feeding decreases functional lipid components (long chain n-3 FA and CLA) in Australian beef regardless of meat cuts, while increasing total trans 18:1 and saturated FA levels."

mod6:
<+mircea_popescu> turns out, an aligator was trying to traverse the sewage got himself stuck.
<< woah!
benkay:
<mircea_popescu> so you get mpex-audited float every time yoyu pay a dividend.
<< wait but as in the case of mpif, a malicious broker could issue more shares and not pay to that float, as mpex doesn't enforce that divs be paid to the whole float which you say is a feature but my tiny brain still percieves as a bug
benkay:
<mircea_popescu> benkay:HeySteve: nonsense.
<< it's not nonsense in any way. naked shorts are the instrument of evil. women should be always naked, shorts always covered. the us is doing it exaclty backwards.
<< you'll note i came around eventually.
benkay:
<mircea_popescu> benkay: afaik there's no way to evaluate the float on mpex. you just gotta trust mircea_popescu.
<< no, this is why the dividend payments work the way they do. mpex will a) not let you pay fewer shares than there are and b) issue you a signed receipt which includes that number.
<< contract also spells it out.
benkay:
<BingoBoingo> mircea_popescu: I'm not sure if they are the worst... Databases suck pretty bad. // let me tell you about this magical closed source database i own...

<< es el socialismo
bitcoinpete: mircea_popescu: nubbins` canada looks scarier and scarier.
<<how so??
mircea_popescu: bitcoinpete: i would've thought he was the exact opposite
<< this, incidentally, is how you know you've buddha'd. various people reading your stuff come to exactly opposite conclusions on fundamental topics such as "what is the purpose of meaning"
mircea_popescu: princessnell: not exactly keep living, but maximize probability of the highest possible degree of genetic transmission. but you get my drift.
<< iget your drift, i just don't perceive any substance to it. can you prove your purpose is more to convey your own genetic material than to convey the genetic material of the e coli you're very comfortably keeping at a pleasant temperature deep inside, and strive to keep well
mircea_popescu: benkay: the people with the money to implement dumb crypto things are never going to select professional services people for execution who say things like "what you are trying to build is not possible to build".

<< that was a pretty shitty password.
mircea_popescu: benkay: afaik there's no way to evaluate the float on mpex. you just gotta trust mircea_popescu.
<< no, this is why the dividend payments work the way they do. mpex will a) not let you pay fewer shares than there are and b) issue you a signed receipt which includes that number.
mircea_popescu: benkay:HeySteve: nonsense.
<< it's not nonsense in any way. naked shorts are the instrument of evil. women should be always naked, shorts always covered. the us is doing it exaclty backwards.
mircea_popescu: benkay: I was thinking of starting a general shorting fund - sell shares that mimic shares in every way (pay same divs, buyback at vwap after X months). sell the shares at a discount to make them more appealing than real shares
<< mpex did this early on, but it was a political move to crush the idiots that thought they can make a glbse club. i doubt it'll be financially productive, you'll either fake volume a la btct
mircea_popescu: bitcoinpete: there honestly aren't enough hours in a day to document "all the scams"
<< he may well have a pooint.
mircea_popescu: kakobrekla: davout i dont know, why you keep making trouble and asking us to solve it?!

<< if you do that ima stop reading it altogether.
mircea_popescu: fluffypony: like the PoW is the defining factor
<< the pow is a defining factor, what you on about ?
mircea_popescu: punkman: seems strange
<< few people actually grok opsec. this is probably because most adults were once children, and most children are forced to renounce their hardline attitudes, such as "won't eat any peas ever no matter what"
mircea_popescu: fluffypony: why don't they call it a PoCathon
<< ahaha you're one step off getting your own nbc show. "the bowl is round, the mug is round, why not call it roundtine"
mircea_popescu: fluffypony: Vacathon!
<< that's when you go on a cow tipping spree all over the world.
mircea_popescu: assbot: Pigeon-feeders in Vienna to be fined 36 as part of city's crackdown on bird population

mircea_popescu: moiety: I have been on 0 business trips. I used to work in a hospital lol
<< start saving for argentina next year ? :D
mircea_popescu: i came across a test scrap today and realized that i spelled the word "redeem" wrong on every single one
<<< aaa-hahahaha. YOU NEED AN EDITOR!!1
davout: "farts at a bean soup convention"
<<< hahaha
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform: doesn't have a purpose or an intent or a role. it simply is
<< ever play the '80s game 'M.U.L.E.' ?
<< no i haven't. for my shame and to my detriment, it turns out!
kakobrekla:
<jurov> 1. they'd need to keep volume till bet closes
< can you verify the volume is true?
kakobrekla:
<jurov> and since the domain itself will be redirected to paymium where you can log in with your old creds // you have a point
< he does not. someone can hax bcentral, steal the logins, redirect it to some x site using the stolen logins. would fit description.
Apocalyptic:

Apocalyptic:
<mod6> mp: The Spy-Stuff post was awesome! The Instanbul post had great pics also. :) // pretty much
mircea_popescu:
<BingoBoingo> Oh, the many people whose departure made $100+ BTC possible

mircea_popescu: bitcoinpete: and if anyone has any office chair recommendations, shoot away!
<< aeron flux
mircea_popescu: dub: bitcoinpete: -assets official position is siding with big oil fyi
<< omg such a hater this guy
mircea_popescu: bitcoinpete: and quite possible the last
<< especially.
fluffypony: kakobrekla:hows health care there?
<- government healthcare isn't terrible, but I'd rather not risk that level of care. Mostly anyone who is lower middle-class and above has private healthcare, which is really quite affordable and quite ubiquitous among much of the working class.
fluffypony: cazalla:isn't it a bit disingenuous to say crime affects non-whites more than whites then?
<- to answer that: I mean more than you'd expect given the ratio
benkay:
<jurov> benkay you do't need persistent wallet file at all.. and even if, i guess blame is on gpg's side which is too hard to be used as a library // i was referring to bitc actually
Mats_cd03: woe is me
<< pay attention to the appropriate spelling, none of this 'whoa is [me]' shit i saw in the logs earlier

<BingoBoingo> On that note I am off for a few units of time.
benkay: CheckDavid But btc on their books are less valuable to shareholders due to the risk of.losing them and other factors.
<< this is absolutely correct.
benkay:
<Mats_cd03> !up CheckDavid [16:41]
benkay:
<CheckDavid> dignork: but can't it decide to never pay them as well and just reinvest despite its success ? // also, true.
benkay:
<CheckDavid> And I was just thinking that a business can be successful without paying dividends // this is correct.
gribble: Error: invalid syntax (
<string>, line 1)
bitcoinpete: punkman: MP goes away, the logs dry up, for shame
<< meh, he writes 300+ lines/day. if we're doing 1,000 - 1,200 in his absence, we're doing nicely
