mircea_popescu: i suppose the results should be informative, for normally socialised individuals. we're dealing with idiots coming out of urbana however, so he's prolly still in denial about just how utterly he got humiliated over the past six months
mircea_popescu: but anyway, to make the point plain : the real world, practical value of a libertard, such as a liberal with a phd from urbana & his firends, is just about epsilon.
BingoBoingo: Urbana has to have one of the highest per captia populations of aspies in the world
mircea_popescu: one of my esl slavergirls can influence the future more than the entire troop of 'em.
BingoBoingo: slavegirl > Urbana Aspie > Andresseeeeeeeeen
BingoBoingo: Slavegirl is made to develop skills and competence. Urbana Apsie fumbles until he gets paper then pretends to be french. Andreeseeeessnsnesnsnensnes made netscape, got money, and spend the time after that accindentlying himself.
mircea_popescu: so basically the progression is an approximation of "how many lashes"
BingoBoingo: Right. Urbana's dissertation is '05 so likely that is the last time he felt anything close to a lash. Anndruserrren Has well...
mircea_popescu: "They spoke about the other students in Nerzhin's class, who had graduated on the day the war started.

benkay: you take the blue pill, you go to sleep, you wake up and everything continues as normal.
chetty: red or blue, its up to you
mircea_popescu: well that doesn't halp. apparently some reddit libertard brigade doesn't like me because, i quote, "I ignored it because I thought the article was terrible, un-self-aware TRP crap, but it wasn't worth replying to."
benkay: in the context of the pososphere, it refers to the set of notions rejected by mainstream/academic america
benkay: oh gosh again, talk to princessnell about that
benkay: but roughly speaking, the groups constantly pushing egalitarianism and rights and all the socialist claptrap
benkay: so who are the libertards?
benkay: fuck me i'm young/clueless

benkay: i just say 'progressives'

mircea_popescu: that's unexpectedly explicit. are you allowed to do that ?
benkay: TRP is also shorthand to those people for "racist/misogynist/classist"
mircea_popescu: o wait, so the libertards have decided the matrix is racist ?
benkay: because obviously if you think there's a difference between men and women you must be some kind of evil human
benkay: no no the matrix is good, thats what TRP is
benkay: libertards are failing to grasp the metaphor

nubbins`: (furtively checks finger for ring)
benkay: libertards reject that the red pill takes you out of the consensual hallucination.
benkay: or maybe that there is a hallucination
mircea_popescu: at any rate, can we say that "self aware" is a compliment (devoid of actual content) or just "un-self-aware" is a dig ?
mircea_popescu: benkay so the matrix is a good film with a bad ending in libertard fanon ?
benkay: no no it's a great movie with a great ending in libertard canon
benkay: they just fail to connect the dots.
mircea_popescu: but if it is then the fact my article is trp can't be "crap". he should be eating it up.
benkay: this is the libertard in full cog-diss mode.
mircea_popescu: what are these people, the internet mental dissonance club ?
nubbins`: the red pill is an unbearable downer.
nubbins`: it just wipes the shit off their glasses
ThickAsThieves: I'd explain it as,"TRP crap" means conspiracy/bullshit that doesnt really exist
nubbins`: so they get to see they're standing in a field of shit stretching as far as the eye can see
mircea_popescu: is that what it's based on, the fiction/reality cleavage ?
chetty: but they never know they took it, how can that be unhappy about taking it?
nubbins`: whereas being oblivious would be a preferred alternative
mircea_popescu: tbh i buy nubbins` explanation most readily. in libertard fanon "nobody cares what the truth is, merely convenience matters"
mircea_popescu: all should skip it, and maybe isps should put TW all over it
nubbins`: i don't sleep better at night for the knowledge i've gained

BingoBoingo: You've never once hinted at these things doing anything.
ninjashogun: to tell you a bit about me, I'm 31, and previously was an early-employee at a YCombinator-backed startup that made an exit (no windfallf or me, but I got to see the whole process)
ninjashogun: YCombinator is the incubator that backed: Reddit, Dropbox, AirBNB
ninjashogun: I can tell you a bit about the companies, of course, but I'm not selling an idea, so much as a pipeline
ninjashogun: I've been programming since I was 15 (or earlier) and quite technical as well.
BingoBoingo: You suggested someone take a wired security device and make it wireless because WPA is so much more secure than not intentionally broadcasting seekrits
ninjashogun: The two companies are: 1) a proprietary hardware company (totally unrelated to bitcoin in any way)
ninjashogun: BingoBoingo, so I was in here seeking financing for the second company, which was a services company. As part of that I also sought to sell services, which didn't materialize
ninjashogun: btw I've repeated this recently. I was in touch wtih Nxt selling services to them. But they failed their reference check completely, utterly.

ninjashogun: BingoBoingo, it was just a simple offer. Recently, Nxt was very interested, but they failed (bombed, totally bombed) my reference check on them.
ninjashogun: anyway if you are just going to want to troll I have other options for my time.
BingoBoingo: ninjashogun: People in here buy services all of the fucking time. They simply buy services from people who know what they are servicing. Not fucking cold callers asking for payment up front.
benkay: BingoBoingo: would you make a tweet for me?
ninjashogun: I will say that asciilifeform's conclusion was totally wrong. WPA or whatever is not needed for secure communication over a device. You could flash a LED and have a webcam read it, and vice versa (it can read flashing of a monitor). There is absolutely no outside channel that exposes.

benkay: that's what you sent me.
benkay: that's not references.
benkay: i am asking for references now.
ninjashogun: Fine, you can call Paul Graham (pg@ycoombinator.com) and ask about Robert Viragh.
benkay: and as tuxebo is apparently out of business, that's not good enough.
ninjashogun: I also mentioned that I had no personal windfall from it.
ninjashogun: Meanwhile, I'm a startup founder (2 right now).
punkman: ninjashogun, why the hell are you turning down the $200k to raise $30k in #bitcoin-otc
ninjashogun: I will make my offer and then if nobody is interested that's enough. It's the same offer that's happening elsewher.
benkay: and what can mr graham say about you, ninjashogun ?
benkay: acquired by whom, ninjashogun ?
ninjashogun: it's $200K with a boatloat of strings, and I couldn't do the other (earlier) startup.
ninjashogun: The earlier startup is actually much farther along but it is a harder play.
ninjashogun: Look, I recommned you read "Venture Deals" by Brad Feld.
ninjashogun: there are other resources as well. There is a ton of information.
ninjashogun: I realize that startups are quite different from the bitcoin-related assets, etc.
punkman: ninjashogun: business is business
benkay: it laid out the current american approach to fundraising pretty cleanly.
benkay: ninjashogun: who acquired tuxebo?
benkay: ninjashogun: what will graham have to say about you?
ninjashogun: benkay - that is the approach that I'm following. I'm an American, and the first (earlier) company is registered in the US.
ninjashogun: benkay - why don't you write him and find out.
ninjashogun: the new president, Sam Altman, knows me vaguely as well.

mthreat: benkay: for now, just try teh search from the web interface
benkay: wow paul graham doesn't appear to have published a pgp key.
BingoBoingo: I'm wondering what happened to the one he posted on the loper site, should have bookmarked it.
