t mention bitcoin, because what is a computer and how do I even use it
bounce: won'
t happen. this schizophrenic one party system has a serious aversion to truth in politics.
bounce: that really doesn'
t make sense
bounce: doesn'
t say what the bond was set at
mircea_popescu: for instance, hand'
t i been a gangster when i was in my teens, i could have gone to school, where i'd have learned many valuable skills and in time maybe even ended up a major revolutionary entrepreneur.
mircea_popescu: bounce to rehash a limb of the previous discussion, you maybe heard that the best way to sink a good start-up is a bad revenue source early on. same thing with your thief : the opportunity cost of being a criminal is major in that you don'
t feel as much pressure to develop more useful traits.
mircea_popescu: it's the fact that she now can'
t plan, because lo and behold, randomly sent to jail.
mircea_popescu: bounce it's not the month in jail, just like the problem with stealing isn'
t really that omg, someone's going to miss what you stole.
bounce: the fear of it and the government losing legitimacy, yes. wasn'
t thinking just the economic side of things.
mircea_popescu: fucking oneself ain'
t all that it's cracked up to be anyway.
bounce: practicing for sainthood isn'
t that expensive really.
bounce: does mean a lot of arguing and "convincing" and other crap. doesn'

t dunnit guv
bounce: well, you won'
t find cattle rustlers in the city
bounce: there's plenty routers that do mostly the right thing but then subtly the wrong thing in some cases, and the costs doesn'
t show up as prohibitive
mircea_popescu: anyway, the implications of a call aren'
t always obvious, which is a point well understood by security analysts, especilally with all the practice of late, and also how we ended up with all that sweet greek mythology about fate.

t representative
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform you're basically looking at the cables. the cables aren'
t a machine, the transistors are th machine.
mircea_popescu: which is a sort of engineering, for people thatdidn'

t what I had in mind.
mircea_popescu: dub don'
t forget all the trolls i pay to bother random anons that forgot to take their pills on random forums nobody reads.
mircea_popescu: MolokoDesk: I should block that. << i wouldn'

bounce: this isn'
t usually a problem among the, let's call them "usenet crowd". people who're reasonably good at discussing more than one thing per email and are technically minded so don'
t take it too personally when asked to answer a technical question.
MolokoDesk: for example I deleted wordpress from this VM. I don'
t use it and didn'
t even want it there.
MolokoDesk: as 'security' best practices is mostly don'
t use certain language constructs, or coding practices that allow exploits from web input.

t have to do it constantly, cause good code never breaks :D
bounce can'
t get recruiters, hr peeps, or even first line support idjits to f'n answer their emails.

MolokoDesk: usually CSO isn'
t an honorary title. oh well.

t fix engines? news to me.
mircea_popescu: this is like complaining that the decals didn'
t fix the engine.
punkman: oh never mind, browser didn'
t know it was utf
MolokoDesk: it doesn'
t matter how the BTC is spent.
mircea_popescu: honestly i don'
t expect anything to break, since php is so stable and everything.
mircea_popescu: it's not mission critical, it's in the "can wait a day can'
t wait a week" pile.
mircea_popescu: MolokoDesk well sure. gribble can'
t be permaout of the loop :p
MolokoDesk: gribble is completely out of the loop. the logic is linear no queues or state machines needed. Nothing stops if something else doesn'
t complete.
MolokoDesk: it's tracking transaction IDs now. doesn'
t terminate.
MolokoDesk: (you won'
t see deedBot in other chan without an invite or join directive)

t give a shit about bitcoind 0.7 or .8 or .9, but CORE DEVS!!!" << sometimes the unbathed masses find glimmers of light shining through from under the door. most of them are happy to have any light at all, not even noticing that there's a door handle hitting them in the forehead. a few will see the door handle at all. fewer still will give it a twist... and end up here.
pete_dushenski: more to the point, assbot can'
t make heads or tails of twobitidiot
pete_dushenski: "The app is very good. The concept is also genius. What I don'
t care for are ma lot of people who aren'
t nice, or whose language isn'
t adequate to use when there are minors online. It's almost as if it needed a moderator in some of the chat rooms. Don'
t take me wrong p, I like the App a lot and that's why I gave it four stars."
BingoBoingo: <Vexual> imma take yo to the ballet bb << You don'
t need to use code words for strip club here
pete_dushenski: not entirely my cup of tea but if they can do escargot properly i'm sure it ain'
t all bad

t even fire them, stuffed pants << "honey, is that a revolucion in your pocket? or..."
pete_dushenski: nubbins`: then buy the
