funkenstein_: It is not the "equality" in these threads that is bogus but the mere comparison without context.
mircea_popescu: your notion of "context" is rooted in a certain equalitarian mindset that has nothing to do with reality.

mircea_popescu: most tellingly, and the heuristic i generally recognize it by, is the inability to find the places where no context is possible.

funkenstein_: mircea_popescu, no offense taken. I have mostly explored Red Square at my own leisure, but still consider myself a stranger there.
adlai: "differenc from MRCA" itself can be measured by phenotype or genotype, using similarity of behavior or content, respectively
mircea_popescu: you show me a roomfull of 20 year olds that all supposedly have an intuitive understanding of number theory, i see both the reason poor brin looks like he sucks corcoduse his entire life and a candidate for hanging.
adlai doesn't have one of these
adlai: the friend who made 'my' (his) goban says they're pretty much impossible to buy locally
mircea_popescu: actually upon rereading that spoken poem, i notice a hole the light might perhaps be brought in!
mircea_popescu: tell me funkenstein_ what do you have "socialization" mean in there ?
funkenstein_: yeah that was pretty vague sorry.. I guess more established social behaviors..
funkenstein_: lets make a metric then: differentiation in societal roles
mircea_popescu: specifically because it was not vague at all, but both specific and a fundamental requisite of the thinking in question.
mircea_popescu: admire : you want that to be there so that you and ants are made by the same god so therefore, and i underscore, therefore, if the ants were owners of the world there still were a place in the world for you.
mircea_popescu: except, as far as the ants are concerned, there wouldn't be.
mircea_popescu: this is what derpy libertards call, for the short distance their congenital apnea allows them to run it, "critiquing the entrenched patriarchy"
funkenstein_: actually in this case I was complimenting a far more entrenched class system
mircea_popescu: but in point of fact, the whole distance is this : that you want the word unary and all the items equal. whereas the world is not even coherent
mircea_popescu: "Regardless of whether you waive the fine or not, and despite conditional terms added to reassert authority" being the point of interest.
mircea_popescu: what you call it ain't the lynchpin of this here lynch mob.
funkenstein_: i guess their socialization is superior in the sense adlai implied: more evolved

linton_s_dawson: mircea_popescu: i've seen your argument regarding the "true" value of a bitcoin where it has nothing to do with fiat. do you have a way to determine it? say, i start a community and we agree to use bitcoin as a currency. how many apples would one bitcoin (bit, satoshi, etc.) buy?
kakobrekla: the same if you exchange it on buttstamp
mircea_popescu: this is a question to be answered by that community neh ?
mircea_popescu: in general the supply side is going to be "as many btc as that community can get hands on" and the demand side will be "all the goods and services it wants to trade".
mircea_popescu: this question is a lot less theoretical than it seems, seeing how eulora.
linton_s_dawson: indeed. the community must consist of "true believers" as well, i guess, since external factors can easily screw things up. like, if 1 btc buys 5 apples in my community but 1000 apples in the outer world.
mircea_popescu: either the "1000 apples" of outer world fiction is crushed by your demand,
mircea_popescu: or else your 5 apples delusion is crushed by the outer world supply.
kakobrekla: linton_s_dawson pick a price and ill arbitrage it
adlai: if there's an "outer world", you may have violated "where it has nothing to do with fiat"?
linton_s_dawson: so disconnection from the outer world doesn't seem feasible unless i'm on another planet

mircea_popescu: "...Now I want you to remember that no bastard ever won a war by dying for his country. He won it by making the other poor dumb bastard die for his country. Men, all this stuff you've heard about America not wanting to fight - wanting to stay out of the war, is a lot of horse dung. Americans traditionally love to fight. All real Americans love the sting of battle. When you were kids, you all admired the champion marble
mircea_popescu: shooter, the fastest runner, big league ball players, the toughest boxers. Americans love a winner and will not tolerate a loser. Americans play to win all the time. I wouldn't give a hoot in hell for a man who lost and laughed. That's why Americans have never lost and never will lose a war, because the very thought of losing is hateful to Americans."

phf: just because you can do it, doesn't give it meaning. in fact that sort of attempts at ontology result in a lot of bad code. (not to mention that they are doomed to failure, e.g. semantic web)
