mircea_popescu: <asciilifeform> ben
_vulpes: speaking of rockets and small arms, familiar with american invention, 'gyrojet' ? <<< isn't this really that french invention ? the rocket powered grenade that regularly gets stopped in branches etc and kills the shooter ?
mircea_popescu: <ben
_vulpes> nevermind that the sane person will never answer that question in a way useful to the questioner. << yeah but then if they get in an altercation with that person later not answering usefully usually makes the difference between a dismissed case and a felony convicion.
ben_vulpes: <mircea

_popescu: so what do you think about Orson Welles? Yea it's cool you can get a RED camera and press the easy button, warranted it makes shit cheaper. But it's a cheap replacement for "the real thing"
thestringpuller: ben
_vulpes: like seriously get a fucking dolly or steadicam.
thestringpuller: ben
_vulpes: dude RED camera's are so annoying and pervasive.
ben_vulpes: <mircea
_popescu> the "profession" of photography is not evolving towards going back to film cameras. it's evolving towards drone cameras. they find the right spot on their own, fly around, take a bunch of photos for you etc. << the "red" cameras are another interesting evolution here. by my limited understanding 'filmmakers' are in the habit of blanketing the scene with them and then making zooms/pans/dolly actions happen in post

BingoBoingo: mircea
_popescu: Just dug up the filing. Working on a write up.
mircea_popescu: ben
_vulpes point remains, when you have a buy wall you increase the price, rather thna flatten yourself against it.
mircea_popescu: ben
_vulpes depends, maybe the 240 a month goes into creating a relationship with the provider or w/e. at that level, the skill of the manager is much more important than technical considerations. think of it, most embasies cost more than they have to.
ben_vulpes: mircea
_popescu: granted, 300/mo is a piddling amount.
mircea_popescu: ben
_vulpes:... $8500 << ... in excees of 300 dollars a month << you have to understand, 300 a month may well be the threshold of "minimum we'd pay for servers". because it's a tiny sum.

_popescu comment gets eaten by contravex's spam filter << just happened again lol

gernika: mircea
_popescu So in a case where two parties have no information about each other (which is essentially the same as when one party is in the WoT and one isn't, or when one party wants to do a trade they're not rated for), a nash equilibrium allows a way to incentivize both parties to complete the transaction faithfully by forcing both parties to risk the value of the item being traded contingent on the trade being completed
gernika: mircea
_popescu Would a nash equilibrium based exchange in THAT case be of use? Or would it nullify the donation to the wot?
mircea_popescu: mats
_cd03 in fairness, i dun think it's sluttiness, i think its simple use. you should see the chicks here, it rained two days ago, it was like... i dunno, 18 instead of 23 celsisus ? COATS! shivering! everyone destroyed omg it's so cold.
gernika: mircea
_popescu So in order for someone to get rated for a more valuable interaction than they have ever participated in before, someone else always needs to take a risk, correct?
