mircea_popescu: pankkake it seems you're labouring under the misapprehension that these ranks are sort-of like school marks
mircea_popescu: that's not what they are. they're statistical dampeners.
mircea_popescu: the only thing someone's aggregate score tells you is how likely it is for you to have someone who knows him in your network.
mircea_popescu: and the individual score is not "how trustworthy is this guy" but "how well i am acquainted with this guy", ie, how valuable my input may be to a third party asking for references.
duduqa: "misapprehension"...boy, I´m learning good English for free here. Big THANK YOU, Mr. MP
mircea_popescu: so in this sense, pankkake, i can mark as 10 someone with whom i only do 0.001 trades, inasmuch as i judge that i can 100% describe them to whoever asks
mircea_popescu: conversely i could keep someone at a 1 even if we trade millions, if it's a hit and run affair and i couldn't really tell them from adam.
nubbins`: i think the highest rating i've left anyone is maybe a 2.
pankkake: but I could trust someone I know nothing about
mike_c: thanks for rating mp. i have found wot useful even for someone like me with a small graph. you rate people you trust, and then can leech off their ratings.

TestingUnoDosTre: too much thinking. I'm going to go create a web of likes and dislikes ;)
BingoBoingo: Basically it is what LinkedIN imagined it could be
☟︎ mircea_popescu: i can cut through the chase in about ten minutes because of it,
mircea_popescu: and that's quite why i;'m so distrustful of various "Experts" and "ceos" and whatnot that don't have one.
pankkake: people accept anyone's friendship in linkedin. I always get recruiters as shortest paths, it's useless :(
TestingUnoDosTre: I absolutely hate recruits on linked in. It's like they believe their likelyhood of staying with a company depends on how many contacts they have
BingoBoingo: Basically the part where you contact the raters is why the apserzersorLords aren't keen on the WoT and default to Pirateat40 to justify their sloth
pankkake: they did some things right lately, you can *endorse* people
nubbins`: i'm suspicious of people who add me on it
TestingUnoDosTre: I've had some Indian dude that I briefly hung out with at work like 3 years ago ask for endorsements on his project management skills. I complied...
nubbins`: yeah, i've had people i worked with 3 years ago "endorse" me for skills out of the blue
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: And the wanna be Ceo aspies
nubbins`: "the hr manager at your first job out of university has endorsed you for the following skills"
pankkake: I've been endorsed for skills the people endorsing me knew nothing about. that's because it bugs you to endorse people…
BingoBoingo: The people for whom any social interaction is a greater burden then clicking button on whatever virtual BBQ retreat they go to
nubbins`: linkedin: it's like facebook, but without your friends and family
mircea_popescu: kinda why i love nanotube. he's a geek, and he's not making the wot any more social than it is
nubbins` endorsed you for the following skills: beard-growing
pankkake: I removed a lot of friends this year actually
mircea_popescu endorses you for your girlfriend. and also endorses her.
nubbins` endorsals your gf for the following skills
mircea_popescu: it's getting harder and harder to argue with that chick
nubbins`: her ignore button is no longer yellow, -1
pankkake: yes, because it slows down the server or some crap
nubbins`: so you could say that thermos has... INSULATED her?
pankkake: because that obviously can't be cached…
nubbins`: btctalk is fucked these past few days

davout: mircea_popescu: that's because you'll always be a newfag to me :D

nubbins`: anyway a garbage truck was making its way down a steep road, lost control, picked up TWO CARS parked on the curb and brought them down with it
nubbins`: finally smashed into an SUV at the bottom of the hill, saving the occupants of the adjacent house from certain death
nubbins`: for reference, that picture was taken 3pm today and the snow stopped falling YESTERDAY.
nubbins`: ah, heh, i actually know that tall garbageman in between the truck and the green car

BingoBoingo: Kraken has been toxic almost as long as vircurex, haven't they?
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo nah, much more recent, and originally they looked legit
BingoBoingo: Well they pulled their name after your PR supposed a Pirate like thing named Craken in the famous Posting the called out Pirate
Apocalyptic: mircea_popescu, they just finished a 5 mio funding round
BingoBoingo: Well, WHat came first them or the PR saying how to clone Pirate post?
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo pirate post was april 2012, kraken was like august 2013ish
mircea_popescu: Apocalyptic except they had a 600 btc hole from before.
BingoBoingo: See, the Kraken name's jsut always seemed too toxic.
Apocalyptic: but then kinda dubious why would some potential investors want to patch that hole
mircea_popescu: Apocalyptic you saw actual paper that it actually happened ?
mircea_popescu: in general nothing keeps someone from claiming they got funded.
BingoBoingo: Apocalyptic: "Investors" patched Vircurex's 1000+ BTC hole the first time...
Apocalyptic: true, so you think it's just some PR move on thin air ?
mircea_popescu: but their pr is spiraling out of control in a certain pattern. that's usually the end sign.
BingoBoingo: Apocalyptic: You might be confusing that with the second hole in vircurex.
Apocalyptic: haven't followed that vircurex story since the beginning
Apocalyptic: <mircea_popescu> i don't think anything any particular way // your question seemed to imply otherwise
BingoBoingo: Vircurex went: 1) hole 2) Investment 3) hole boogaloo 4) scam 5) BTC-TC and Buttfunder died 6) Cryptostocks scamissance 7) Advertising "Interest" 8) Freeze Mothafucker

mircea_popescu: i originally thought they're basically stray cats that took to the wild

mircea_popescu: benkay sure, but that was never in question. if I have 5 that owe me 600 btc pay to the same one address, the fact that i can prove i have received 600 btc in that address is neither here nor there
mircea_popescu: the fact that i can't univocally resolve their claims is the problem, and decoying it doens't breed confidence.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform i imagine it's coming, but it wouldn't have worked in this case.
moiety: asciilifeform: so basically if i want a job involving manuls, i need to go to uni. sucks.
benkay: no shit they signed from an addy that wasn't that to which their 600 missing were sent?
mircea_popescu: reports surfaced that they showed the same deposit address(es) to multiple users.
mircea_popescu: the fact that they can show that some btc made it there is not relevant.
mircea_popescu: the fact that they can't apportion the sent btc to the various users is the problem
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: The way to reduce piss test fraud is to give portions of the tested at times asparagus and other times no asparagus
mircea_popescu: somehow nobody picked on "hey, one address per transaction has its issues as a model" as a result, either.

nubbins`: if there's one thing that 5 men will never agree on, it's who the best bond was
MisterE: what is his good:bad movie ratio like 1:10
VanCleef: robert rodriguez is making a latino james bond film
BingoBoingo: Bonds ranked: Connery, Dalton, Craig, Moore, the rest, Connery

nubbins`: it was the closest i could get to an infinity symbol without trying
BingoBoingo: VanCleef: You realize such a thing is basically Breaking Bad, but centered on Tuco
MisterE: who was the Bond in the one with Jaws? Moonraker?
MisterE: Breaking Bad is top 5 series ever made
MisterE: probably tied for #2 with Sopranos in my book
MisterE: Roger Moore ok he was great
BingoBoingo: VanCleef: Honestly it would be better from the Salamancas point of view
BingoBoingo: MisterE: Still only the 4th best bond though
VanCleef: bingoboingo who do you think would make a good james bond after craig?
BingoBoingo: I dunno if it is time to think after Craig yet.
BingoBoingo: Craig is so solid and I dunno that any active English actors are ready yet.
BingoBoingo: VanCleef: The thing about Craig is LayerCake sold it.
BingoBoingo: Fassbender doesn't have a LayerCake though
nubbins`: the idea of the "paleo diet" is interesting, but i can't help be suspicious that it's for fucking idiots
nubbins`: mostly based on the fact that most of the stuff i read about it appears to have been written by fucking idiots
nubbins`: "Now that you’ve been eating like a predator for some time, you are discovering that when you eat like a predator, and play like a predator, you start thinking like a predator. Stupid people aren’t annoyances: they’re profit centers. Fat people are no longer disgusting: they’re delicious."
nubbins`: "ever since i went paleo, i don't find fat people disgusting"
BingoBoingo: English enough, but too old to replace craig
MisterE: ah yes I knew I was spelling last name wrong
MisterE: I seem to like many of the movies he's in
BingoBoingo: craig's replacement will prolly be unknowable until at least two years after he's too old
nubbins`: like when dude banged his wife in the middle of a football field
MisterE: Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels he was good in that
nubbins`: not because all the HURR DURR knuckleheads who cummed at that scene in the first movie wanted to cum again
