mircea_popescu: from the corp pov, "it's a scam" to "it's a legit business" roughly maps their honesty. in this sense, shit badly mismanaged by honest but clueless people is "not a scam"

mircea_popescu: in most of the us the state involves itself anyway, provided you spend more than a few years together. or have kids.

locksmith: for all the shit that Cyprus is, our police here is very mild
locksmith: you can go about the island and you only see police in their cars going around
locksmith: the most terrifiying thing about cyprus police is if you do a traffic violation
locksmith: that's their strong department, traffic
mircea_popescu: anyway, my car's here so ima split. if the bitcoinshop.us tards show up, have them make an appointment. nothing before 8pm gmt.
locksmith: ok, also if you guys see ThickAsThieves let him know I'm his alt-ego
locksmith: no, this guy in reddit thinks that my username there, sherlocksmith, and my nick here, locksmith, is ThickAsThieves' alt identity
pankkake: lol, they're never out of sockpuppet conspiracies

jurov: that fred quimby trilema stuff got me thinking
jurov: Looks if i want to have more people around, I have to actually and mercilessly use them
jurov: not play toward their creative side
jurov: only then they stay in my company
jurov: But I don't want to surround me with people I secretly despise!
jurov: it's closely related to the fungibility
jurov: and quimby did not buy his animator espresso machine or bean bags
Apocalyptic: the way you behave towards people is in no way related to their potential fungibility
Apocalyptic: the way you consider them however is something else
jurov: Quite the opposite. And they worked for him and the results were excellent.

Shakespeare: a team does need a leader jurov, but a leader doesnt despise his men
Shakespeare: he merely does not need to totally understand what they do
Apocalyptic: jurov, I saw the point as a real life exemple of the value of management

Shakespeare: look at the hiring lockout thing between apple/google etc
Apocalyptic: and that is shouldn't be underestimated, as it tremendously often is
Apocalyptic: (re the salary argument, "does this guy really deserve to be paid xxxx ? he does nothing...")
jurov: Do you think Jobs and Schmidt did not despise(or had similar feeling) the underlings?
Apocalyptic: now that's beside the point, maybe they did, maybe they don't
jurov: There just *had* to be some feeling of superiority in them to do what they did
Shakespeare: Jobs and the underlings he despised were probably several layers of mgmt removed
Shakespeare: it's not thaty they felt superior, it;s that they ARE superior
Shakespeare: so when inferior beings frustrate your plans how does that make you feel?
Shakespeare: we're getting away from the spirit of the Quimby article i think though
jurov: you're right, i'd be upset
Shakespeare: it was mostly about running a tight ship, regardless of your experience performing the art
jurov: Dunno. If I want to have company and attract and keep talent, that's what i need to become
jurov: That was what tfa was about.
Shakespeare: or, maybe your decision as a good boss, migth be to hire a better manager
jurov: Well, I could barely stand being an employee since I remember.
Shakespeare: he didnt build the thing without intigation
jurov: And I can't do the travelling,freelancing and squatting nomad either, attractive it may be.
jurov: So the only option left is to have own company.
[KS]: mircea_popescu: I see your point, but it's an improper use of the word "scam". A scam is a fraud. A good corp in a bad market is just that. You made a bad investment and calling it a scam is just shifting the blame. Of course, don't try to explain them word things to "investors".
jurov: Yes. Just discussing some difficulties with leading people.

Shakespeare: do you wish they didnt lose interest? or was it indicative of their likely performance anywya?
Shakespeare: kinda seems you might be worrying too much about being super boss this early
jurov: Seems they wanted guaranteed salary and I did not feel like bullshitting them.
jurov: And once you pay full salary, you have to be super boss...
Shakespeare: it could even be their own desire to see the work done
jurov: Or their mortgage.
Shakespeare: yeah if they hard up, just the promise of moneymight do
jurov: I have coinbr + 3 other projects in various stages...need mostly sysadmin(s).
Shakespeare: i have only bad experience with such people and staffing, i'm no help...
Shakespeare: maybe merge with some other co that offers good ones?
jurov: Yeah, with niggers.txt
jurov: they failed to deliver too, btw.
Shakespeare: was your intent to be a net-based workplace?
Shakespeare: in my own experience, online thing is much worse and harder to manage employees/quality
jurov: Trying the first one, maybe I should do the second instead
Shakespeare: if you hire online people, they need to have super track record of delivering
Shakespeare: and any of those guys probly dont need you
chetty: jurov, you dont need to that hard on employees. what you need is their respect.

danielpbarron: there is a demand for scammers and individuals like that simply supply it
thestringpuller: but then what happens when we find out the new person is actually an old known scammer?
twizt: and how is being unable to use handle or gpg key preventing anything?
twizt: well if they are taking 500+ bitcoins everytime
twizt: better than minimum wage job right?
danielpbarron: heh, unless my math is wrong here.. i think it would take exactly 3 years, thestringpuller
danielpbarron: twizt: if you can pull then off then by all means, do it
twizt: nah i dont have the patience to be a sociopath
thestringpuller: some people are willing to tarnish their WoT reputation, but that makes the non scammers that much more trustworthy
twizt: losing my trust is not worth 500+ bitcoins
kakobrekla: twbt wot is a tool, like a map, it wont do the job by itself, you have to know how to read it, then it helps.
twizt: who cares how long someone has trust
twizt: if that 1 time they fuck up after 3 years
danielpbarron: all the trust in the world doesn't make up for woefully incompetent business plans, which describes almost all Bitcoin scams
twizt: my bet would be against the most 'trustworthy'

twizt: if wot had peoples names and addresses
twizt: and only doxed on fuck up
twizt: then maybe i see y wot would be great
twizt: yea but we cant have that now right, cuz people gotta stay anon lol
