asciilifeform: this database is part of a regulatory push that the EU got rolling after the Paris November 2015 terror attacks, and which it officially put forward in February 2016, and later approved at the start of July 2016. Legally, this is an attempt to reform the Anti-Money Laundering Directive (AMLD).'

BingoBoingo: Serious problems. Scarcity is a thing.
mircea_popescu: somehow the dot became so deeply "concat strings" that i'd first check "who the fuck is regexping this" perhaps ; but it'd never occur to me to say "you know what - it saw a dot it's now looking at a class"
asciilifeform: picture a pistol that shoots 'implicit object'.
lru: is there a way to extract help from the deedbot?
lru: a.b is the same as a['b'], since nearly everything in javascript is an object
lru: a.b is asking for the 'b' property in the object a, which is undefined (the type, not the string), but since types can be automatically converted, and you're working with strings, the undefined type may have been turned into a string depending on use
mircea_popescu: in other holy shit javascript, a.b where a, b are strings results in the STRING "undefined" ; whereas a.concat(b) results in a string that's a followed by b.

mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo crazy, i get a blocked page
ben_vulpes: never underestimate the pain of having to scrape a bumper sticker off your 2015 wrx
BingoBoingo: Which is why if one owns a Ranch one must always include "no fat chicks" on their brand. Otherwise horses take quick trip to factory of glue
mircea_popescu: trump's having such a marked advantage so early, on top of a campaign entirely predicated on flattening everything and everyone (and implicitly "the man") draws that chunk of idiots in like shit draws flies.
mircea_popescu: anyway, the truth of the matter is that us citizens have no intellect or spine. a good third of the electorate just wants to vote with whoever's winning so as to then have voted for the winner. that's it.
mircea_popescu: you know, the low information voters and assorted clueless idiots take a week longer than the rednecks to form an opinion. hurr.
BingoBoingo: Or kinda turns Nato into a subscription sorta deal.
BingoBoingo: Anyways I guess that's the other thing from selecting a midwestern nowhere I forgot to offer asciilifeform, if it took the world wars to get the local paper to print in English the town is probably better than others.
mircea_popescu: fucking hillary clinton, all of them. "very important" and a big deal and "informed" and bla bla for the five fucking minutes the show's on. just like any stripper cum tv anchor / us "corporation" etcetera.
BingoBoingo: <mircea_popescu> and wtf is with the "up to" menu. really, 400 dollars buys me "up to a steak" ? fuck that, how about his steak gets him UP TO 400 bucks, whatever i happen to have in my pocket. << German settlement can not prevent every UStard idiocy from intruding

mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2016-07-26#1510108 << this is altogether not such a bad idea. if halon gotta pay hazmat to fly, fatass sure as fuck gotta pay hazmat to be in airport. ☝︎

asciilifeform: then the matchstick chariot i made as a kid, pulled by beetles, is competition for ferrari.
asciilifeform: if this existed in my locale, i'd be hard-pressed for a reason to switch to it
asciilifeform: incidentally it would appear that BingoBoingo's isp ^ costs, ~to a penny, what verizon costs.
asciilifeform: so far my working hypothesis is that there is no fiber because it dun work on a yacht.
asciilifeform: i am at a loss for how this adds up to 'no fiber'
BingoBoingo: Coastiness is a problem because it breeds unwarranted self importance due to proximity to bigger cities
asciilifeform: how's that a problem ?
asciilifeform: and incidentally i am pretty sure that at this very moment i am in a town where the nearest foodstamp recipient is a full day's walk away.
BingoBoingo: And nearest food stamp, HUD, Social Services office, is either a half hours drive away or a full day's walk away
asciilifeform: what's a rhonda
asciilifeform: and would be quite busy, e.g., buggering dead badgers to the tune of a banjo, or whatever it is that one does there. ☟︎
BingoBoingo: I mean if you move to small town midwest you could probably get such a rule done on your own in 18 months
asciilifeform pictures BingoBoingo building himself a house, then licensing with the city as 'grade A abbatoir' just-in-case...
asciilifeform: (the 100 is a minimum)
BingoBoingo: Because 'Murica. Every now and then a disgruntled customer is going to shit on the floor. That's how food service works. ☟︎

BingoBoingo: <mircea_popescu> now go qntra it. << Working on a draft already
mircea_popescu: such is the wonderful if suicidal power of hard forks, and stephen tual pretending like he's a person, who may speak and have opinions, rather than admitting he's cattle, and should be sold by the pound off hooks in butcheries for a discount over pork bellies.
mircea_popescu: it's that the whole scam ecosystem went from 4298.0+164.7 = 4462 to 3529.7+523.3=4053 ie a ~10% loss of interest overnight.
shinohai: like a steam engine, has paid out dao attacker it appears

mircea_popescu: those blogspot "websites" ? 0 comments. here's a fine sample : https://archive.is/BarC2
mircea_popescu: they actually think this is a country. somehow.
mircea_popescu: in other news, out of 496 highschools in the city of buenos aires, 80 have a website. the rest do not have a website. about two thirds offer "IT" in some shape nevertheless.
mats: what a misleading headline
asciilifeform: Link That we send it to you and run it and extract it in a safe place on your computer
mircea_popescu: judging by the way dao CLASSIC worked, that'll end up a fine way to kill the us president.
shinohai: Your death by drone may well be a smart contract on the dao 2.0
asciilifeform: 'Furthermore, my own personal opinion is that allowing ETC trading indirectly funds a criminal organization. With no way to know what these funds will be used for in the future, I find this behaviour careless and dangerous.' << gold
BingoBoingo: Just because ethereum is rolling in lulz we can't be saying corn futures are up when in fact they have fallen like a rock because "What the fuck are we going to do with all this corn?
mircea_popescu: now, numerically, he's pretty scandalous, i'm taller than him and more than 50lbs lighter. and i'm not "skinny", and i very much doubt he has "bigger bones" than me, partly because every time i broke something the doctors were "wtf, is this a horse bone ?"
mircea_popescu: well, spectrum, spectrum, but not like autism, like anemia. there is a spectrum, but it doesn't start at the gate of normal.
BingoBoingo: Obesity is like Autism. THere's a spectrum
mircea_popescu: well yeah, he's chubby, sure. but obese is a thing.
mircea_popescu: seems a little nutty.
asciilifeform had nfi that this was a thing

mircea_popescu: oh and in other news : http://blog.bestamericanpoetry.com/the_best_american_poetry/2016/07/my-entry.html << someone wrote a poem about corn. someone else read it. in a windy cornfield. DRAMATICALLY.
