<benkay> but i wouldn't build a bridge out of Al. // some people did

<asciilifeform> there is no 'cloud.' only - other people's hard disks.
<< you have to appreciate the infantile worldview. there is no "my house" as far as teenagers go, just the place other people pay the mortgage on. nevertheless...

<LadyRainicorn> It is strange how pretty much the only thing that gets upvoted is asinine jokes.
Apocalyptic:
<mircea_popescu> this is fucking weird, are we being attacked ? // it's the aliens
fluffypony: mircea_popescu:fluffypony so opened on feb 8th at 0.025, peaked at .1, then piefaced towards 0.015ish. is it dead ?
<- that's what happens when an altcoin gets put on a large exchange - all the pump-and-dumpers go ballistic, and there ends up being a huge correction. happens every. single. time.
mircea_popescu:
<decimation> the bigger story is that 37% of fed retirment money is invested in a "fund" that has returned %0.82 year-to-date.
<< and then we cuss out people for "investing" in glbse&co

artifexd: mircea_popescu:taub you need to get rated by someone in assbot's l2, then id with gribble and pm assbot !up
<- you need to be rated by someone in assbot's l1
mircea_popescu:
<asciilifeform> (one could, in principle, take its real-time published trades and attempt buy/sell, see if it is matched at a particular offer, etc)
<< fake book != fake history.
mircea_popescu:
<Hiro2> could anyone tell me why ASICMINER is no longer giving out dividends?
<< asicminer seems to be going to shit.
mircea_popescu:
<fluffypony> wasn't there a kick up recently about Havelock not actually being registered in Panama?
<< yes.
mircea_popescu:
<pankkake> try the electrified butt plugs
<< actually those are kinda bad for you. there is such a thing as electric burns of the mucosa.
Mats_cd03: i dont experience much (
<25%) cognitive decline after 24 hours when i temper it with provigil across the same period
danielpbarron: 18:40:56
<+mircea_popescu> decimation you know i just had this dispute with native speaker today ? because she said "tuna" with a plain u like in cartoon
<< in english: when there is only one consonant in-between two vowels, the first vowel becomes "long" (usually).
davout: "yes each rating ideally would be signed."
<<< this
mircea_popescu:
<ThickAsThieves> what if nanotube dies, gribble gets compromised and farts all over the ratings
<< we got teh logs ?
Apocalyptic:
<ThickAsThieves> if gribble decides to lie much more is fucked than the log // he has a point
mircea_popescu: ThickAsThieves> "Obviously, a criminal justice system that punished only those who volunteered for punishment was unworkable
<< this is what the contemporary thinks.
davout: "2nd hand textillic retinopathy"
<<< nice
HeySteve:
<DinoSaw> not vote for them today, giving them free reign to break their promises and do wtf they like / get paid to do for the next X years
HeySteve:
<DinoSaw> people's influence should rise and fall in accordance with their reputation, based on their recent actions
Apocalyptic: mircea,
<HeySteve> another issue I forsee with rating of unregistered parties, is people extending the scope of the WoT beyond its intended purpose of recording Bitcoin trades. people will use it to downrate TV characters from soap operas
mircea_popescu:
<ThickAsThieves> you see, if the WoT is a punishment gazette, since when do criminals register for such themselves?
<< since forever. read up on "peine forte et dure" ?
mircea_popescu:
<davout> ThickAsThieves: i wonder if that's really a good idea
<< i don't think it is.
HeySteve:
<+fluffypony> an alias is irrelevant unless it links to an identity
<- I disagree. someone doesn't have to know your real name to trade with you based on ratings
chetty:
<ThickAsThieves> since when do criminals register for such themselves?// great point!!
ThickAsThieves:
<+HeySteve> right, I get it. I am trying to finetune the WoT system without fixing what ain't broke. this is a definite point of improvement /// you are fixing it by making something, or fixing your brain?
mircea_popescu: bitcoinpete: just readin logs atm, looks like drew came by with quite the edm business proposal. mp's flowers must have put him in a fabulous mood because he's !downed newcomers for less
<< someone should sometime do a comparative study of how noobs fare in here.
mircea_popescu: TheNewDeal: how does it get executed
<< euro future, settles 15th of each month, can be delivered as euros on bitcoin central.
mircea_popescu: TheNewDeal: mpex drop?
<< yeah it like, plunged a few days ago. it actually does this, probably to mess with mike trying to understand the news impact.
fluffypony: mircea_popescu:lol pron anal-yzation engines is where the webmoney is!
<- quick! someone tell MRKLYE!
fluffypony: mircea_popescu:incidentally, it occurs to me someone should do a topic summary of this channel. what have we been discussing today, music, heaters, beating small children, points of history of cryptography academic publications minutia, radiobiology
<- last time I suggested I got shot down:
http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=01-05-2014#653313 ☝︎ bitcoinpete: benkay: mircea_popescu has a standing offer on the table for people to promote the cardano
<<say whaaat? colour me curious
bitcoinpete: “Spill response and clean-up creates business and employment opportunities for affected communities, regions, and cleanup service providers.”
<<true enough. the gdp-based economy is the car accident economy, which is exactly why bitcoin is so important
benkay:
<mircea_popescu> ThickAsThieves yeah. a good reason for bitcoin to start ignoring patents too.
<< bitcoin cares about patents today?!
benkay:
<Drew> i would like to think that i ended up with a structured thinking process
<< hang out here and you might be so lucky as to have one beaten into you
benkay:
<Drew> but while buying an idaho bun may taste different than a florida bun, a meyer subwoofer rented from idaho would be the same as one rented in florida
<< the tastes and social mores differ wildly across the different regions. f'r instance, you'll have a mighty hard time displacing red cube in portland (but again don't ever do anything in this town)
mircea_popescu: "Let the trolls try to collect danegeld from a hundred million consumers!"
<< this may be dangerous, in that putting too much weight on something "that will hold anything" never works. like you know, 19th century poliution and the ideas of "send fumes in the air, it can take anything" or "water will wash anyhing away"
benkay:
<mircea_popescu> why portland and not boston ?
<< generally there is only one reason to locate in portland and that is low-cost 'engineering' talent.
mircea_popescu: (Atlanta, Dallas, LA, NYC, Portland, Denver, Chicago, Miami, etc)
< the count is 8, and this stinks of poorly researcher. why denver and not seattle, for instance ?
mircea_popescu: 8-10 medium/large scale events
<< this is where you show the demographics of the area.
