mircea_popescu: unbalanced_
the sexual barrier is
there
to repel
the unthinking adults, not
to cater
to
the
teenagers.
mircea_popescu: it is
the investors it repels and
the speculators it attracts.
mircea_popescu: huge volatility is exactly
the same : in spite of
the fact it mostly burns
the speculators,
unbalanced_: I respect
the math/investment opinions, so I'm not going anywhere. I could just do without you playing
to
the mentality of
teenage boys while you simultaneously express distaste for unsophisticated noobs (a high proportion of which are likely
that same demographic).
mircea_popescu: in spite of it being mostly
the mobsters who are getting murdered, it is
the peasants who move out of
the
town, and
the mobsters who move in.
mircea_popescu: now, with
the mob
there comes sudden and striong social mobility, and also a bunch of murders.
taub: i mean your job should be
to run
the exchange, not really worry about volatility
mircea_popescu: let me illustrate
this point, and i won't even use
tits.
taub: never heard
that before mp
unbalanced_: I want
to see bitcoin and sophisticated discussion of BTC assets get more widespread.
This channel is
the best
their is but cuts off half
the population.
mircea_popescu: even so i am more worried by
things such as sdice going
to 75
then
to 29 for no apparent reason
taub: mpex has
the highest volume in bitcoin stocks already doesnt it?
mircea_popescu: unbalanced_ everyone, as in,
the people who
took btc
to 260 when i
told
them not
to go over 130 ? why does one want
this everyone muddling
throuhg ?
unbalanced_: Aw I said
true before I knew we were going
to sextown.
mircea_popescu: stretchmarks are actually worse
than no growth at all.
mircea_popescu: the surest way for her NOT being a successful fotomodel at 19 is if her
tits grow
too fast.
mircea_popescu: take
the case of
the
twelve year old as an illustrative example.
mircea_popescu: there is a problem of growthspeed which is not
too well understood, especially not by
the average (which is
to say business illiterate) entrepreneur
these days.
unbalanced_: Agreed, I
think you're just one $15 home page
template away from being at
the
top of everyone's lists when it comes
to BTC assets.
pgp: not
that MPEX isn't real life...
mircea_popescu: and hopefulyl
they get some sense/advice in
the package.
pgp: idiots go
to members
to
trade, where fees get marked up but no upfront fee - it's how it work irl
pgp: non-trivial up front fee for exchange membership (which should be limited
to non-idiots), but also low marginal costs for
trading...
mircea_popescu: (not
the
time spent learning,
the
time spent making
the proofs
that you'cve learned)
mircea_popescu: when you go
to get your degree you are basically paying a fee for
this priviledge, equal
to
the value of your
time you put into making
the papers
pgp: I
think
that model is correct.
mircea_popescu: it's an exam. yet another of life's exams most fail
to pass.
mircea_popescu: i havce no idea why people represent
this in
terms of
them buying something.
taub: i'd
take one for 10 maybe
mircea_popescu: just so
they can cringe when it's $500k+ in a year or
two.
mircea_popescu: haha something
tells me people cringing at $7500 membership a week ago are still not running
to get it at 60% discount
pgp: but
then again MPEX exchange membership for $1000 USD would be reward enough...

ThickAsThieves: just watched a few min of mtv video awards, wow
that channel really fell apart huh?
mircea_popescu: whether it scales or not will decide how large a community can get, not whether it will be
the norm or not.
mircea_popescu: this hidden-ness and
the lack of systematic solutions are exactly why
the "virile fucktopia" is
the only solution.
mircea_popescu: global warming is a useful "abstraction" if you're using it
to get a dumbass neighbour
to stop smoking out your pool.
mircea_popescu: there's no proof you have
the mandate of heaven. nopr can ever be.
mircea_popescu: moreover,
the original branch where we got lost is
the proving.
mircea_popescu: the pretense of
the "educated"
to access it is as fraudulent in
today's cathedral as it was in
the druid circle obviously.
mircea_popescu: even so.
the subtle structure of
the world remains inacessible. even if
the girl does it with enthusiasm and art.
thestringpuller: did I really just come back
to "getting a girl
to suck your cock is no proof you're loved.
mircea_popescu: getting a girl
to suck your cock is no proof you're loved.
mircea_popescu: what people do is no proof of what people are, in
this sense.
mircea_popescu: no, my objection is
that form is no substitute for function.
mircea_popescu: anyway, not so sure sepukku is such a bad example. you have one chance
to do yourself in as one of us now
that you can't continue living as one of us.
mircea_popescu: a,
that's a pity. probably
the best
thing
tyo come out of france
mircea_popescu: maybe go
the whole japanese mile and have him cut his own guts out
mircea_popescu: perhaps you just do it because it becomes clear
the guy's a fuckwit.
mircea_popescu: nevertheless, plugging
the other guy has
the virtue of keeping
this putative aristocracy from complacency
mircea_popescu: perhaps. it does come out a rather vulgar
thing as reduced by our conversation.
mircea_popescu: get moar gold but can't
throw a party cause
there's nobody
to invite.
mircea_popescu: "get double
the gold" da fuck is
that.
to do what, carry it luis de funes style ?
