HeySteve: right, I get it. I am trying to finetune the WoT system without fixing what ain'
t broke. this is a definite point of improvement
fluffypony: DrewHorne: not really in any centralised/managed fashion, this isn'
t a /r/jobs4bitcoins :-P
fluffypony: pankkake: yeah - to a large degree, investors don'
t *necessarily* have the knowledge to be in the space the business is operating in (otherwise they'd be in the space), so they're just proffering an opinion
mircea_popescu: DrewHorne im really not interested in carrying private conversations. we don'
t know each other, we have nothing private to discuss.
pankkake: I like the point where you'd have to trust other shareholder's opinions. I certainly wouldn'
t want that
mircea_popescu: because you couldn'
t afford to let a physical tractor go to waste, as a society.
mircea_popescu: history has shown that their opinions weren'
t worth holding.
fluffypony: mircea_popescu: getting pushback from 1 person who can'
t understand why we aren'
t giving VertPay investors voting rights
fluffypony: what's the rationale behind investors getting voting rights if they cumulatively own like 10% or 20% of a company? doesn'
t that seem redundant?
fluffypony: won'
t they lack context if they do that?
mircea_popescu: well so in that case don'
t oppose what he said to me eh!
mircea_popescu: fluffypony you didn'
t get shot down ? i supported it, what did you think "fluffypony on the topic of how good design begets business." meant ?
mircea_popescu: i don'
t think there ever existed or could ever exist a functioning society in which nursing jobs are to be discounted because too little demand and too many people wanting to do it.
fluffypony: mircea_popescu: if she speaks English, why doesn'
t she look at the TEFL stuff and similar? I have a friend in Cape Town who teaches English via Skype to foreigners, she doesn'
t have to speak a foreign language, just has to be able to speak English
mircea_popescu: couldn'
t pay for my fucking coffee. not all the coffee i drink in a week, either, just, one time.
fluffypony: TheNewDeal: I'm a poor gambler, and don'
t know enough about it to make a commitment

t think that is where the mpoe action is going

t think those were possible any more
benkay: if i don'
t respond within fifteen minutes i'm offline.
benkay: well, you can'
t talk in here

t register until you've blown it away and restored it from backup at least twice.
benkay: <Drew> but while buying an idaho bun may taste different than a florida bun, a meyer subwoofer rented from idaho would be the same as one rented in florida << the tastes and social mores differ wildly across the different regions. f'r instance, you'll have a mighty hard time displacing red cube in portland (but again don'
t ever do anything in this town)
Drew: in all likelihood we won'
t need the whole 1.25 million but there is a cushion of about 300,000 built in
mircea_popescu: yeah, seriously, it is so very difficult to understand. couldn'
t have even predicted it, either. o.O
mircea_popescu: casual examination would indicate otherwise, but hey. you're a millenial aren'
t you ? got plenty of time.
mircea_popescu: of course, the us college hasn'
t been giving people thinking tools in 50 years, but anyway.
mircea_popescu: Drew the problem of not having completed formal education is that you don'
t end up with a structured thinking process. this is not so bad for people like engineers, who don'
t really need it quite to the degree, but you're trying to go into business.
mircea_popescu: airbnb to this day doesn'
t realise that it's much more successful in canada than in the us, or why.

t the result of throwing darts at a highschool map

T (Tomorrowland / Tomorrowworld) - $100,000,000 - 75% ownership
benkay: "doesn'
t bleed coins"?
BingoBoingo: The point though is to continue demonstrating you aren'
t an idiot
benkay: i can'
t trust you without it though.
Drew: thats ok, politeness isn'
t something i came looking for. I have a thick skin and would prefer constructive brute criticism to beating around the bush senseless politeness any day
benkay: if your brand = your corporation, i don'
t see how that's addressing the concern.
Drew: while they own many venues and are able to throw larger shows and more frequently than most people, they don'
t directly throw any festivals or 5000+ person events that i am aware of
benkay: also, you can'
t up yourself, i don'
t think.

t watch any TV really

t a business, it's a hobby.
mircea_popescu: you won'
t make money from making sound any more than a girl will make money taking selfies.
mircea_popescu: funny, i can'
t tell whether my heater fan is working from here.
mircea_popescu: tbh, unless you got some turboprop shit going on here, a properly soundproofed garage shouldn'
t care anywya.
benkay: because heating water isn'
t dead simple to begin with.
benkay: can'
t tell if 'design' or just derps lifted out of someone else's DC for their 2 years in aws.
mircea_popescu: and i coulnd'
t make it out because obviously it's tjuna
mircea_popescu: In the 80's it merged with Éditions J becoming Éditions Vaillant-Miroir Sprint (VMS) (by then i wasn'
t paying attention anymore)
benkay: mircea_popescu: if they can'
t figure out where the money is i don'
t want to meet them.
pankkake: Pif was edited by l'Humanité, the communist newspaper (still active). though surpringly there wasn'
t much propaganda

t read much Pif either
mircea_popescu: what's gals in french again ? can'
t be you guys go around saying copine or some shit
pankkake: I remember the day I got free drinks thanks to GitHub. Gave the tip to a bunch of people, most of them didn'

t understand the party culture.
pankkake: millions invested, can'
t even pay for real DDoS protection or servers

t hear anything like that. Could also be dumb UK stuff?
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: I don'
t think twitter really bans.
mircea_popescu: and moreover, why the d is rendered as n in a double n, wtf, this isn'
t even a documented consonant migration afaik
ozbot: Nicolas
T. COURTOIS' research in cryptography
mircea_popescu: JorgePasada well you know, if one can'
t reach eventual intellectual consistency through logical means, the only method available is not asking questions.
mircea_popescu: bitcoinpete: eventually, i see fewer people walking into bitcoin (and assets) like they own the place << kinda what i'm trying to get with the trouting various clueless twits a la courtois. "it ain'
t yo momma's btc, yo! show some respek!"
JorgePasada: and the worst part is they don'
t even try to question their own understanding and/or more accurately drill down on meaning
fluffypony: JorgePasada: I see our friends in the Neo&Bee thread don'
t understand that when you and I say "creditor" we mean "creditor" and not "investor"
mircea_popescu: yes, this is true, money changers didn'
t traditionally run like banks.

t bring myself to finish it
