BingoBoingo: Top Comment: "They diagnosed him as having a viral infection and gave him antibiotics (which only work on bacteria). Jesus."
midnightmagic: usually that's to prevent secondary infection, they're fully aware that antibiotics don't work on viruses
BingoBoingo: midnightmagic: But when you are already suffering a viral infection... Unless that infection is GRIDS you are often never better prepared to slaughter bacterial hordes on your own.

midnightmagic: we don't really know the diagnosis. there may have been indications for antibacterials; a differential may have been puzzling, and it may have been a precaution: shotgunning it
BingoBoingo: decimation: Well I keep a lot of info on paper anyways. Need tinder to get the flames ready to recycle drives.
decimation: I recommend the fujitsu scansnap for a scanner, it is awesome
midnightmagic: anyway, yeah, without some good reason for it, and apparently since there are no new antibacterials being researched, over-prescribing that nonsense is bad for everyone. :(
BingoBoingo: <midnightmagic> we don't really know the diagnosis. there may have been indications for antibacterials; a differential may have been puzzling, and it may have been a precaution: shotgunning it << But a good number of broad spectrum antibiotics can actually hamper immune response. Methotrexate is a good example.
decimation: they can also encourage fungal infections

mircea_popescu: the liver is not very well designed (or perhaps couldn't have been better deisgned), which is why it fails so frequently.

mircea_popescu: i know plenty of people smarter than me, and plenty of people better than me, and the overlap is pretty much zero.
decimation: some of the people I know who scored very well on standardized tests made rather poor life choices
mircea_popescu: like when the third engine dies we can make a prediction about the plane's future. *that's* a prediction.
decimation: it predicted that they would succeed in bureaucratic schoolwork, which was mostly true
mircea_popescu: similarly the one engine plane is very successful at being a one engine plane.

BingoBoingo: Aluminium also clogs the shit out of grinding wheels
BingoBoingo: TheNewDeal: It isn't necessarily that Aluminum is flamable enough on its own. Nearly any grinding equiptment usually put upon it will have already cut iron and have various Iron oxides in it...
Vexual: i always thought it was more about the heat
BingoBoingo: Also about things that generate heat... like thermite.
TheNewDeal: I'm not saying it isn't possible, but I'm pretty sure I've cut the shit on a band saw, while lightly spraying some lubricant, and had no problems of ignition. That band saw was for sure used in cutting other things (not sure how much iron)

mircea_popescu: heh, that's actually exactly right. god fucking help you if i'm displeased.
mircea_popescu: the controlling point here being that just because no toddler should be in control of the world, it doesn't follow that nobody should be.
mircea_popescu: that's how it works : for things to exist you gotta have some people whose screams can scourge the very mouth of hell.
Azelphur: that just made me imagine MP having a temper tantrum, that'd be funny

mircea_popescu: danielpbarron: my problem with seals is that the admins are in denial that they cannot possibly ban their way to a collusion-free poker environment, and refuse to integrate the Web of Trust to allow users to control who they play against <<< this being a two year old business idea i had that nobody i talked to wants to implement because whatever, too busy chasing the "retainer" 1200 dollah a month sort of thing.
mircea_popescu: but you happen to be exactly correct, that's the only way to fight it.
mircea_popescu: artifexd well i dunno it;'s an actual subreddit, but the sheer volume of people that know various details, had ready trilema quotes etc.
mircea_popescu: kakobrekla: that guy that is talking to micon is pure scammer << the us talkspace is pretty much populated by scammers by now.
mircea_popescu: just like the porn space is populated by strippers and whores, who figure they can charge more / will get better custom if they are now "pornstars", just so would-be scammers in the us feel the overpowering need to have a tv show/radio show etc.
mircea_popescu: it all started in the 80s with those god awful late night cable channels, and thirty years later it pretty much took over "mainstream"
mircea_popescu: which is why as carlin/carson/stern etc are going out of old age, there's nobody to replace them. you get stuck with cancerous filth a la that oliver douche.
mircea_popescu: course when it comes time to collect they still need a scammer to shill for (and many just spend their time shilling for the biggest scammer of all, the govt, in exchange for whatever scraps), but still. a poisonous atmosphere.

mircea_popescu: decimation: well, the idea is that you are investing in the equipment required to build other products in the future, thus making the NRE "recoverable" << conversely, he is contributing a scary amount of value to the company.

dub: get paul graham in here
dub: he's your bff remember
strp: dub, well I did just write him an emial let me check... literally a 1 hour and 16 minutes ago.
strp: he's trolling me on my YC relationships.
strp: dub, if you weren't trolling --- you would have a lot more luck getting Sam Altman (the current YC president) in here. He has taken a HUGE liking to crypto currencies.
mircea_popescu: mats_cd03: seems i'm wrong, i need someone that knows more finance than me to chime in << what is the q again ?
mircea_popescu: strp if we didn;'t think him an idiot that argument may hold more value.
strp: thickasthieves, anyway you said I was wrong that you owuldn't like to introduce yourself in a public, logged channel. So, go ahead.
mircea_popescu: strp free "equity" in reddit is worth abut the same as free equity in ethereum,
thickasthieves: strp i'm talking about you, i;m simply asking you to state your business
strp: thickasthieves, if (as anyone normal) you would prefer to do it privately you can also PM me an introduction. I don't know anything about you other than that you hang out in -assets and were recomended as responsible and level-headed.
thickasthieves: who are you though? i dont talk to strangers privately
mircea_popescu: davidlatapie what, were you going to count the pies flying ?
dub: someone set you up tat
diametric: strp: nice weather we're having in fort meade today
strp: mircea_popescu, well, I was connected with a guy who I think made heavy coin on ethereum. I didn't verify.
mircea_popescu: you and your retarded boy groups. im sure you're connected to someone who you think has had sex.
strp: if you guys don't prefer to scam today I can share the email I got from the ethereum investor, in wihch he talked aobut some of his returns. (removing his name.)
strp: I meant to say "troll" not scam, sorry.
thickasthieves: strp, here's the deal, you have until your voice in this channel runs out to make your case for talking to me after that dont speak to me again
mircea_popescu: strp yeah, we're totally going to care about some ethereum pr copy. it's like, in short supply.
strp: no thanks, thickasthieves. I don't have to justify talking with anyone else I talk with.
davidlatapie: mircea_popescu: Well, this is what happens when one wants to join interesting conversation and can't accept to just let it go because he doesn't have time to answer. So yeah, watching pies flying
mircea_popescu: thickasthieves what the fuck is that anyway ? ringworms ?
davidlatapie: mircea_popescu: how should I understand "#monero-mew ? srsly ?"
mircea_popescu: davidlatapie i didn't manage to get that one. come again ?
davidlatapie: mircea_popescu> davidlatapie what, were you going to count the pies flying ?
davidlatapie: I assume you were resentful because I'm lurking even when voiced
mircea_popescu: yeah, as in, came in here as rpietilla to see if we bite head off and how many times.
assbot: Lui Hua the man with world's largest hand - Facts | Sorry I Can

davidlatapie: ouch, yeah, I really have to fix this WoT things. Entirely my fault.
davidlatapie: mircea_popescu: the rpietila part was purely technical. I was setting up an IRC account for Risto, nothing else :)
mircea_popescu: has the guy been in the hospital since his stay after that hotel mishap ?
mircea_popescu: thickasthieves: ol, Circle's login suggests what email you might be trying to enter< omfg ?! NOT by quering their userdb i hope beyond hope ?!
mircea_popescu: kakobrekla you know how often that was said, in human history ?
thickasthieves: i can type any addy with this tld and it suggests .ca instead with same addy
mircea_popescu: "In one case, they showed that the infected USB can impersonate a keyboard to type any keystrokes the attacker chooses on the victim’s machine. Because it affects the firmware of the USB’s microcontroller, that attack program would be stored in the rewritable code that controls the USB’s basic functions, not in its flash memory—even deleting the entire contents of its storage wouldn’t catch the malware. Other
mircea_popescu: firmware tricks demonstrated by Caudill and Wilson would hide files in that invisible portion of the code, or silently disable a USB’s security feature that password-protects a certain portion of its memory."
mircea_popescu: or why is this surprising to anyone, or what exactly ?

dub: maybe s.nsa could release a patch
mircea_popescu: dub how are you going to patch the fact that the microcontroler is a... microcontroler ?
kakobrekla: taking shareholders interest into an account, best would be to sell usb condoms.
ben_vulpes: how did that bitbet hack attempt play out?
mircea_popescu: no but srsly, is this 2016 "tech" press material, omfg we discovered you could make malicious hard drive
mircea_popescu: and all your dumbass "encrypted partition" stuff is worthless therefore ?
davidlatapie: mircea_popescu: how should I understand your "#monero-mew ? srsly ?" Funny name, stupid initiative, such idea much wow, else?
mircea_popescu: davidlatapie i have nfi idea what monero is because in spite of being invited fluffypony doesn't want to give the group a presentation. the comment is just as to the improbable nature of the name. why mew and what's someone not in on the jokes to make of it.

fluffypony: mircea_popescu: I'll totally do a group presentation...one day...when I have time...promise...
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform which is my point. if you're going to play evil govt you're better off doing it with hdd.
mircea_popescu: mostly because the usb "standard" looks like something gavin, taaki and that other guy put together.
mircea_popescu: in fact, i've seen computors w/o usbs. not seen any w/o hdds for > 20 years now./
fluffypony: you've seen the USB stuff that was released over the last 24 hours right?
thickasthieves: mp is just saying there was no reason to think usb was secure
mircea_popescu: thickasthieves that's one half. the other half is, these megadiscoveries suck. o, rly, you can make it be fake kbd ?! wow nelly!
Dimsler: can you wear it like a hat?
assbot: adamcaudill/Psychson GitHub
Dimsler: mircea_popescu, bitbet hacked yet?
kakobrekla: hm, i have a 'fake' keyboard intentionally.
davidlatapie: OK so if fluffypony plans a group presentation, I should not encroach on his turf, mircea_popescu
mircea_popescu: anyway, the whole usb reads like so much media whoring to me, possibly with the malicious twist of trying to drown legitimate stuff like THE BASH HOLES!!! AFTER THE SSH HOLES!!!
mircea_popescu: "o look, this car can go in reverse! which is exactly what the manual says! YO COULD KILL PEOPLE!!!"
thickasthieves: probly just a ploy to get everyone to buy new usb sticks
Dimsler: what are you going to do? hack someones cat picutres and selfies?
mircea_popescu: more like a ploy to get people to better learn helplessness.
Dimsler: must get money through internet
mircea_popescu: which incidentally makes me realise, this is an excellent reason against a trilema book.

thickasthieves: why make a book when you could just continue curating trilema
mircea_popescu: anyway, this euro devaluation business is the absolute worst news conceivable for the us.
mircea_popescu: seems obama's fucktarded "sanctions" on russia have backfired monstrously. now the eu is sanctioning the us.
chetty: maybe its what he intended tho, might not be a backfire at all

The20YearIRCloud: the real problem is finding quality programmers that won't rob you blind. His former company was chock full of guys pulling $100k/yr , yet when it came to business sense there wasn't much to go around.
The20YearIRCloud: of course, but from what i've seen video game developers are even worse. So many pseudo-artists deciding that it's all better than a lotto ticket. They spent several million on a game that made something like a hundred dollars
The20YearIRCloud: All while ben, their senior data anylist told them it was a failure waiting to happen, and to spend more effort on advertising their games that were already cash positive
The20YearIRCloud: The company had a patent on some pretty amazing software dealing with getting html5 to convert old PC games to online play. Some were even phone compatible I guess. but instead they wanted to spend a bunch of VC on some pie in the sky, get rich quick game that flopped massively
