BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: More
toxic yes, but mostly from combustion byproducts.
The bicarbonates
that make
the crack a rock generally don't stay very benign when
they burn.
mircea_popescu: that's not
the whole story
there. crack is significantly more
toxic.
BingoBoingo: Well,
the speed at which you can reach a decent serum concentration generally makes a difference on end effect.

that has not been heard of since 1921.
The entire House and Senate, all of Capitol Hill will close for
the funeral of a Representative. However unlike
the 1921 Congress Closing, all members are being flown
to Florida for
the funeral by
the United States Air Force."
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform if you
toss a coin you'll get something like 1% over
the machine in 1000
tries
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: But
they have a dream
team of engineers whose owners won't be named...
mircea_popescu: sooo, in
the latest installment of "libertards are owned by
technology", it'd seem
the uncompromised obamacare will in fact be delayed after all. because websites are hard.
mircea_popescu: it's not
too hard
to beat
to shit provided you have infinite memory.

KRS1: oh i missed
that ok

the drunkest guy in an empty bar.

to appreciate it was on very narrow base

think when
the btc would be 100% mined
to figure

to retape my passenger side mirror on before I
try returning
to
the Interstate Highways.
KRS1: cool next month i get
to start
throwing my asic miners away..useless.
mircea_popescu: there certainly exists
the sufficient cause and backing for it.
BingoBoingo: This just looks like
the same process
that started last winter where
the new $100 normal was discovered. Maybe we are in for Bitcoin's
trek from being
the internet's crisp hundred dollar bill
to being
the crisp 500 euro note.
pgp: i wish charts like
that were plotted against log10...

to control quality
mircea_popescu: here, i'll
trade you : "the writer here has something interesting
to say and a few useful ways

mircea_popescu: mod6 i'll
tell you later, in
the shape of a future nsa product :D
mircea_popescu: if
the gear costs 100k per
terahash and it has
to be amortised in 6 months however,
the cost of electricity would have
to be under -7 dollars/kwh or so.
mod6: so could a hardware device
that measures
the decay of a certain isotope be contrived
to obtain a reliable source of random numbers? and if so, what would be
the best isotope
to use?
mircea_popescu: so yeah, if
they pay less
than 1.75 dollars / kwh and
the gear was free
they're making a profit.
