nubbins`: i'd say
the creator of
the document specified
the exact dimensions of
the page
uhh: i'd say
they do have an influence on how pdfs are presented on a computer screen
nubbins`: (i know,
that's a really open-ended question)
benkay: don't much care
to derp
through it
uhh: maybe we shouldn't pitchfork
the printing guys and scientists, but adobe.
nubbins`: unless you have
the option
to read
these papers in a format
that's a good fit for your screen?
nubbins`: and yet here you are, forced
to live with
their decisions
benkay: what
these academics (along with many others) want or even "think" is irrelevant
nubbins`: if
they wanted you
to not print it,
they wouldn't have made it a pdf
benkay: i was under
the impression
these humans were
trying
to communicate
uhh: only because you are a printing guy doesn't give you
the right
to promote old school
technology. who uses paper
these days?
nubbins`: you know
that's meant for print, right?
benkay: when will
the scientific community release papers
that display well on computer screens oriented normally?
benkay: on an entirely different
topic
uhh: so what's in at
the moment, now
that bf closed etc.?
benkay: and
then fuck everything
benkay: right up until you need
to do something in small units of currency

uhh: omg is
this
teh end of bitcoin?
benkay: i'm always sad at
the footnotes mouseover
text escaping
jurov: at least
there are no footnotes like on
trilema
benkay: intent is
there, but so is ambiguity.
benkay: "All future share issuance will be made only a)
through selling of new shares on MPEx"
jurov: (b) No Such lAbs solemnly promises and warrants never
to issue more shares ...etc
benkay: i'm saying it's not clear at all
that e8 is
the hard upper limit of issuance
Duffer1: so.. it's an investment i guess but one
that's guaranteed
to lose you 100% of everything you put into it
jurov: well, mircea likes
to plan big :)
jurov: up
to
the 1e8 limit
jurov: not all of
them sold at IPO, I mean
jurov: but since
they did not sell on IPO, may be sold later
jurov: benkay: it's meant s.nsa will never have more
than 100`000`000 shares ever
pankkake: but

to be done

benkay: (just
taking
the piss, asciilifeform)
benkay: the other line
that's amusing in retrospect is "I, for one, will wait for
the fully-decentralized systems."
pankkake: As I gather,
the MPEx PR department currently consists of one person, paid
to post pictures of pretty girls in Bitcoin forums.
benkay: in any event,
the dilution rules are a little hazy, and i'm a little stupid and prone
to making outrageous claims for my betters
to correct.
mod6: oh yeah! forgot
that was you.
benkay: does anyone else have any insight on
the
topic?
benkay: who just went
to bed :(
benkay: i'm just contrasting
that
to s.mpoe where
the deal is "there are 1b shares and will only ever be 1b shares"
benkay: ;;later
tell mircea_popescu please for ams
to explain how issuance of new s.nsa even at rolling 30d is not dilution of existing shareholders because ams idiots
benkay: so i'm an idiot and don't understand how
that's not diluting my holdings
benkay: hey asciilifeform why would i buy and hold s.nsa if you (pursuant
to 3.2b) can simply issue more shares?
pankkake: did
that bring a lot of
traffic?
ozbot: $100K
traded
through Vancouver's Bitcoin ATM in one week (with video)
pankkake: I love
the first comment "220 usd for
that"
ozbot: They really are Buttcoins nao pe

BingoBoingo: Nukes, like cocks require some sill for usage regardless of sice,
though size does definitely help
nubbins`: no, i
thought you were asking
the crowd, not suggesting it as a measure
benkay: steep enough power curve on
that one
to neatly disqualify most irrelevants.
benkay: no, i just don't want it
taken seriously.
benkay: what is
the quantified watt of power?
nubbins`: if only religion could sum

nubbins`: minor epiphany on

nubbins`: after some

mircea_popescu: "would you like
to fuck my wife" is really a lot more common
than generally known.
mircea_popescu: and for
that matter, so did
the redskins, and so did everyone else.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform yes, but much more limitedly
than
the stories go.
mircea_popescu: the idiocy of adding
that shit
together like scalars...
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform you know
that's about on par with
the jooz making casha out of virgin boy blood.
Namworld: Scientist is a negative points while no job is 0 and
teacher is -5
pankkake: perhaps add
that he has ~100 wives
Namworld: I don't
think
that qualifies as underprivileged...
