benkay: y'all should see their new tirades about GMOs
Kleeck_: GMOs are the devil.
benkay: dat binary thinking
Kleeck_: dat assumption.
Kleeck_: :)
Kleeck_: "Agree with me or you're binary!"
Kleeck_: ROFL.
Kleeck_: The illusion of intelligence.
benkay: what ams devil?
benkay: what ams gmo?
benkay: i just want a little more subtlety in the conversation
KRS1: nothing wrong with gmo's..people just being paranoid.
benkay: f.ex: an organism identified to carry a certain set of genes bred with another organism some breeders would like to see that gene in
benkay: ams gmo?
KRS1: benkay: engineers reprogram for instance the dna of a tomato so they grow really big and feed more people..a really simple example
mircea_popescu: benkay do you understand the process behind gmo ?
benkay: (mircea_popescu: yes)
mircea_popescu: well so then that's the objection. has nothing to do with reproduction, it's just mashing things together
benkay: i'm quibbling about what it means for a thing to be a "genetically modified organism"
benkay: especially given what's coming out about the common nature of organic viral-driven lateral gene transfer
mircea_popescu: it means to have undergone this process where random bits of dna were thrown at a large number of cells just like it, in the hopes that something maybe catches.
dexX7: usually it's more like "we make the tomato resistant vs pesticide x" afaik
mircea_popescu: benkay i will trust a natural process, such as viral transfer, on the grounds that in millenia of practice it failed to make the world dangerous for me.
mircea_popescu: i will not trust an industrial process, such as gmo, on the grounds that in centuries of practice it NEVER failed to make the world dangerous for me.
dexX7: ^ +1
mircea_popescu: quite a gap there
benkay: on the same note, everything that increases agricultural output is a bad thing 'cause it leads rather quickly to more humans
asciilifeform: there's also the more prosaic fact that 99% of gmo work is for: pesticide resistance.
mircea_popescu: that's also a good point yeah.
asciilifeform: pesticide/herbicide
mircea_popescu: benkay i doubt there's much relation. famine is well resilient to dropping prices of grain
mircea_popescu: people will make ethanol out of corn or buy it to rot in govt "reserves" before feeding any starving idiots
asciilifeform: btw, when will the drug aficionados get around to the fabled 'THC tomato.' that'd be something to write home about.
benkay: why would you put those genes in a plant that fruits?
mircea_popescu: what plant doesn't fruit ?!
asciilifeform: camouflage.
benkay: actually now i'm curious what an unpollinated tomato would do
benkay: 'cause that's how one prevents a pot plant from going to seed
benkay: anyways there's decades of breeding in the pot plants that i find it hard to imagine getting around with gmos
mircea_popescu: you never know your luck
mircea_popescu: gmo is basically a game of vegas slots
mircea_popescu: except people have found a way to get investors to pay for it
asciilifeform: very much so. a place i worked went broke partly because we couldn't get a necessary transfection going.
mircea_popescu: it's basically a game of "twelve lines" or "six lines" or w/e
mircea_popescu: those lines could each be 1 in 100
mircea_popescu: or they could be 1 in 10^65
mircea_popescu: you don't know...
mircea_popescu: so you get five of the six... and that's all you're going to get.
asciilifeform: it's also a game of 'e. coli simply can't be persuaded to piss out X.' or 'croaks trying.'
mircea_popescu: that's probably the product of the future, by the way : the organic computer.
KRS1: yes
mircea_popescu: in the sense of, this programmable device capable of controlled gmoization.
mircea_popescu: sort of like a 3d printer + desktop combo, but made out of cunt tissue and capable of pissing apples.
mircea_popescu: (not whole apples, of course. apple paste)
asciilifeform: we have those already: chinese postdocs. they don't always cut it, though.
KRS1: heh thats quite a picture
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform nah, they can't actually sprout shitake.
KRS1: i would like pr0ns of that
mircea_popescu: anyway, asciilifeform, the saddest story to date is of this corp that MANAGED it. once.
mircea_popescu: they figured it's easy to do, and so didn't pay enough attention to the samples
mircea_popescu: which died.
mircea_popescu: and then could never do it again.
asciilifeform: managed what?
mircea_popescu: the whole list of combos they needed
mircea_popescu: apparently one of them being a very improbable occurence they lucked out on. once.
asciilifeform: when you're in bio business, you have to be prepared that your working capital can literally croak.
asciilifeform: one of the worst occasions is when a mouse farm dies
asciilifeform: this can happen overnight.
asciilifeform: (little buggers all catch something at once. esp. if they're immunocompromised for whatever reason.)
mircea_popescu: yeah.
mircea_popescu: afaik you can't even go into the mouse farms anymore
mircea_popescu: wholly robotic shit
asciilifeform: btw, phun phact: they're under 24/7 armed guard, in any respectable shop.
asciilifeform: i've never once been inside - didn't have clearance.
mircea_popescu: well 20 years ago it was a lot more amicable a thing

benkay: no, i got shot of actual physical fucking atoms a year ago
benkay: nearly a year and a half!
benkay: the cloud robots.
asciilifeform: i still can't bring myself to call a widget that pushes only electrons a robot.
benkay: the widgets for which i'm responsible ultimately move atoms around
benkay: but only after shunting lots of electrons and making lots of api calls and getting the odd human involved
benkay: far more fun to play with than the industrial type
asciilifeform: there's an undeniable sportsmanship appeal to programming a computer that might kill you, however.

dexX7: mircea_popescu: did secondmarket ever contact you?
mircea_popescu: i don't recall on the spot. what would this be about ?
dexX7: secondmarket.com/fund/bitcoin-investment-trust
dexX7: i heard they are looking for people with many coins
dexX7: i was just curious :)
mircea_popescu: not afaik
mircea_popescu: also it looks scammy as all fuck, what the hell is that ?
dexX7: it's not a scam
mircea_popescu: how do you know this ?
VanCleef: bitcoin is a scam so yeh its a scam
dexX7: hm i don't know what it is exactly, but it's a plattform for accredited investors. afaik some big companies like twitter were "traded" there
mircea_popescu: no, i have specific things in mind. for instance, how come i can't find a name ion the about us page,
mircea_popescu: but instead find a sales pitch intended for people with a financial iq corresponding to about the age of 15 ?
mircea_popescu: and where's the finra etc regs.
dexX7: i don't know ;)
mircea_popescu: and what are all those llcs being held by incs i never heard about.
mircea_popescu: so yeah. now you know kinda how the mental process goes.
mircea_popescu: and as far as to the "were traded there" : i can put up a website tomorrow which claims to be trading your mom. this does not imply anything about the actual lady's probity.
mircea_popescu: it just means some kid with a html editor was bored
dexX7: i'm just saying what i read and i have no reason to believe that it's not true
dexX7: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SecondMarket
mircea_popescu: no, see, this is the problem. you don;'t start by believing what you read is true,
mircea_popescu: you start by believing what you read is false.
mircea_popescu: this isn't school.
dexX7: fine, but how do i verify something then?
mircea_popescu: well that's where it gets complicated. give an actual example.
VanCleef: mp will verify it for you
mircea_popescu: lol that only works if you trust me.
VanCleef: i only trust mp
dexX7: i can't trust what i read, so i can't trust mp obviously :p
mircea_popescu: but i said "start".
Kleeck_: ROFL.
Kleeck_: THis is hilarious.
Kleeck_: TIL Secondmarket was written by "some kid with an html editor"
Kleeck_: http://dealbook.nytimes.com/2011/03/10/beyond-facebook-secondmarket-opens-its-doors-to-thousands/
Kleeck_: It's a well known alt market.
mircea_popescu: not secondmarket dood.
mircea_popescu: some fund
Kleeck_: Their ETF?
zoinky: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SecondMarket
mircea_popescu: it's their etf ?
Kleeck_: Yes.
mircea_popescu: dude i gotta relook at this site now.
Kleeck_: Similar to the winklevi, but without the need for SEC approval.
Kleeck_: Because it's limited to accredited investors only.
Kleeck_: I read an article about it a month or two ago
Kleeck_: I'll find it.
zoinky: secondmarket did privates stock for groupon, facebook and twitter
zoinky: before they went public
mircea_popescu: $25K
mircea_popescu: Min. Investment
mircea_popescu: 332
mircea_popescu: Days Left
Kleeck_: Here it is: http://blogs.reuters.com/felix-salmon/2013/09/26/the-bitcoin-bug-bites-secondmarket/
mircea_popescu: seems to me it's some random item on their platform anyone could have created, much like the other "open platforms" of the sort
Kleeck_: Yeah. It's not for your everyday Joe. That's what the Winklevii are trying.
pankkake: zoinky> secondmarket did privates stock for groupon, facebook and twitter <= so, scams
Kleeck_: ROFL
zoinky: i guess so
Kleeck_: YES! The "scam" label has reached an all time low.
zoinky: scams rule the world
pankkake: companies who have no intention to make their investors richer would be a more explicit label ;)
mircea_popescu: well what can i tell you. yes silbert is well known, no we've not talked, yes that fund looks dubious to me.
mircea_popescu: i guess judging by the site is a superficial approach to life.
Kleeck_: Sometimes I don't read book because the cover looks like shit.
pankkake: people judge mpex by its appearance
mircea_popescu: Kleeck_ i do that all the motherfucking time. i am fortunate to have people who love/hate me enough to insist on the topic.
Kleeck_: ^
mircea_popescu: in fact, i did *the exact same thing* about bitcoin, it took commebnters on my blog ~3 months to get me to look again
assbot: [HAVELOCK] [AM1] 1 @ 0.8099 BTC [-]
Kleeck_: It help to have a circle of intelligent people that you respect.
Kleeck_: And who can be challenged and challenge you.
Kleeck_: Then when you say, "That's bullshit." They say, "No it isn't... Look at this!"
mircea_popescu: o, people love to challenge me. because i'm such a snotty asshole see ?
mircea_popescu: works out.

mircea_popescu: (also, fb IS a motherfucking scam. not at all in the same sense, of course)
dexX7: next question: people on reddit say theymos is a scammer, why?
mircea_popescu: well, better question would be "why this time" i think
mircea_popescu: at some point they were incensed about his reading pms on the forum, earlier about his poor manageemnt of forum donations,
mircea_popescu: earlier about his promiting pirate, earluier about his glbse stock dealings,
mircea_popescu: it's a list
dexX7: yeah, "this time" is about pirate again
dexX7: http://www.reddit.com/r/Bitcoin/comments/1p4shj/founder_reflects_on_the_closure_of_bitcoin_stock/ccyz2c4
ozbot: theymos comments on Founder reflects on the closure of Bitcoin stock exchange GLBSE
mircea_popescu: a ok. many of these recur.
mircea_popescu: anyway, you're too new to know, but the way glbse croaked was like this : theymos announced a private sale of his glbse stock (+ some aussie scammer's)
mircea_popescu: a week later glbse just closed
mircea_popescu: the girl accused him of insider dealing, he swore he didn't have a clue wtf nefario was doing
mircea_popescu: the matter was dropped, as i believed him,
dexX7: was this before or after the "internal shareholder discussion2ß
mircea_popescu: but it left a lot of animosity between them
mircea_popescu: this was just about at that time
dexX7: ah okay
dexX7: i remember very vague that many had "bitcoin doesn't care about the sec" or so in their signatures. was this after glbse?
mircea_popescu: also, re the earlier discussion : sm is a marketplace for illiquid assets. it's not that it just magically gets past the hoops winklevoss have to jump through, it's a very specific thing
mircea_popescu: lest some bright young mind reads the log and gets confused.
mircea_popescu: right after.

dexX7: Total Amount Sold $2,542,818 USD
mircea_popescu: i don't think they're doing anything bad, and heck, bitcoin can benefit from the attention of more people with financial expertise

mircea_popescu: so, good for them
