mircea_popescu: THREE MONTHS of doxycycline ? AS A PROPHYLACTIC ?

davout: mircea_popescu: tbf i'd probably advertise x.eur a bit more if i didn't have to wait days for x.eur holder statements
mircea_popescu: you never had to wait all that much once you asked for 'em!
mircea_popescu: i'm ... mefiant of too automated systems.
davout: the point is i really shouldn't have to ask
davout: i'm not saying it has to be automated
mircea_popescu: i can't in good conscience propose that the contract may be renewed when i've not even heard from you.
mircea_popescu: this may even be ridiculous, but it's still what i'm stuck with.
mircea_popescu: there must be a minimum of attention available. it is perhaps true that if you didn't even have to show up once a mnonth for it you'd have more attention available to promote the thing. it is an unpersuasive theory.
davout: nobody is proposing the contract should be renewed, the contract itself is here, stands and describes the instrument, that's how i read it
davout: "2.3. Settlement. Upon the Settlement Date, which shall be the 15th day of every month at noon GMT,"
davout: "(a) The Exchange will compile a list of all contract holders, identifying their registered GPG signatures and the number of contracts held, encrypt this list and forward it to the Market Maker."
mircea_popescu: you seriously propose that going "oh hai" once a month is too much service here ?
davout: is that what i'm proposing?
mircea_popescu: best i can tell.
mircea_popescu: for instance : last month, the stuff went unrenewed for about two weeks. two weeks during which you didn't complain about the matter. this, not because I didn't notice. i had noticed. i was actually getting ready to announce that the x.eur thing is discontinued.
mircea_popescu: the moral of that experience isn't to complain at me that you weren't around for a while. the moral of that experience is to be around. it is after all your flagship product as far as i can tell. treat it like it were.
mircea_popescu: and yes this includes scheduling your vacations, divorces and funerals around the 15th of the month. it's that important.
mircea_popescu: and since we're talking about things : http://www.newsbtc.com/2015/09/07/bitcoin-startup-paymium-raised-e1-million-in-seed-funding/ << this i read about in "newsbtc" ? because why ?
assbot: Bitcoin Startup Paymium Raised €1 Million in Seed Funding - NEWSBTC ... ( http://bit.ly/1KR8dLN )
davout: what i'm proposing is that the contract is pretty clear, and that me hanging around #b-a and keeping up with it, is important, but nonetheless absolutely orthogonal with it.
davout: if you want to make me requesting x.eur holders list a part of the process that's fine, we'll update the contract
mircea_popescu: i don't want anything specific. but i will be keeping track of a large ammount of tiny indicators, because anything else results in exam-taking-training. ☟︎
mircea_popescu: so if you're wondering where the X is, as you should be wondering at any point after noon on the 15th, and it occurs to you we've prolly not heard anything from you in weeks, one of the simplest solutions is to fix it ad hoc, and one of the better solutions is to fix whatsoever fundamental problems that led to your misallocation of time towards reddit or w/e the fuck. because otherwise the rift this allows is bound to
mircea_popescu: grow, and eventually tear things apart.
mircea_popescu: maybe i got special mental needs or something, but to me all this seems obvious.
mircea_popescu: and i still dunno why if im friends with the cto of some company i gotta read from random spamsite about financing events at some company.
mircea_popescu: i can't even follow how or why this seemed like a good idea.
davout: thought i had talked about it in-chan, guess i didn't

mod6: i'm trying to wrap up all these automated cucumber tests & loose ends on some stuff.
mod6: at this point, what it'll do is build a whole graphviz dotfile and output that to stdout or a file. the only part that it wont do (because you have to install `dot' separately) is for example: `dot -Tsvg <dotfile> > graph.html`

mircea_popescu: i am unpersuaded by that, either.
mircea_popescu: what remains here is : a) that the usg is very vulnerable, has always been, and far from a "you can do nothing to us" a top guy is killed every few decades, and the lower agents get popped daily.
mircea_popescu: in fact it's safer to be a criminal than a usg agent.
ascii_field: fact is, poor whites are virtually absent from urban centers. whether martians removed them, or something else, can be debated. the demographics - not so much

mircea_popescu: "usa" was the brand name a few disparate centers of population and of a few slightly more coherent centers of production used for a brief interval between two european wars.
ascii_field is taking 'very start' to refer, as it conventionally did, to the english colonies of 17th and 18th c.

mats: if you have plans to buy things with your credit card tomorrow, should prob do it today, processing networks will be intermittently down
mircea_popescu: here's the thing in my head : b-a is by now at a stage where it kinda needs its own pr agency. and you might be just the asshole to do that, if you swing that way. do you swing that way ?
thestringpuller: mats: is this national?
mats: yes
ascii_field: mircea_popescu: pr agency, l0l! isn't that what moiety starved doing ?
mircea_popescu: no.
mircea_popescu: she starved doing the very scared of bombs secretary brit girl.
pete_dushenski: mircea_popescu how do you imagine this agency working ?
pete_dushenski: i'm at essentially no risk of starvation, ftr.
mircea_popescu: and the process of her starvation was that she starved on her own devices, b-a got her a place to stay and then she ran off.
ascii_field: iirc pete_dushenski even sleeps ad libitum
pete_dushenski: even with infant, i do indeed
ascii_field: just the man for a 'Men wanted for hazardous journey. Low wages, bitter cold, long hours of complete darkness. Safe return doubtful. Honour and recognition in event of success.'
mircea_popescu: pete_dushenski a pr agency is in this day and age a very simple affair, but somewhat time consuming. in principle, it can be reduced to a lone dude with an internet connection and two lists. one, longer, of useful social media derps. the sort that are willing to do the hard work of upvoting, derping on reddit, etc. the other, sadly shorter, of actual important people can talk to directly. like say "all newspaper column
mircea_popescu: ists in so and so".
mircea_popescu: building these is not particularly difficult,. but it takes time. more importantly, it takes determination. and the sort of attitude of the guy that hey, the managers don't wanna see, but since the phone is here...
ascii_field: mircea_popescu: can't resist the question, what is the point of having the first of the lists ?
mircea_popescu: faux "consensus" building.
mircea_popescu: you know, like reddit all agreed that XT is gonna take over.
ascii_field was under the impression that this is a waste of time
ascii_field: at least as per mircea_popescutronic theory
mircea_popescu: depends for whom. why allow the pinoys to make this money ?
mircea_popescu: starve the enemy throughout.
mircea_popescu: denial is a valid strategy.
thestringpuller: mircea_popescu: how is this any different than marketing?
pete_dushenski: mircea_popescu i believe i grok the first list - straightforward enough really, compile those on 'social media' on 'our side' and focus their energies accordingly - it's the second list i'm less clear about.
mircea_popescu: pete_dushenski arrington's success, you have to understand, is very little more than this. it's not a difficult recipe to read or follow. it just takes the hard worker to execute.
mircea_popescu: one could argue that jobs genius is altogether not much above this either.
mircea_popescu: pete_dushenski no, it's more like, spend all your time on fiverr and craigslist and wherever the hungry congregate, spend a little money buying their ample time.
mircea_popescu: nobody gives a shit about extant social media accounts. their value is not even a fractrion of the work they put in

ascii_field: then beautiful.
mircea_popescu: pete_dushenski as to the 2nd list : you want to build raport with those people. make a habit of taking one to lunch every week, if at all possible.
mircea_popescu: (very fucking possible, they travel on starvation budgets)
pete_dushenski: not to put too fine a point on it, but when and how is 'finance' or 'tech' journalist coming to buttfuck edmonton ? afaik they stay at home, work in nyc, or go to 'conpherences'
pete_dushenski: mircea_popescu but that's really just a practical matter, there are other ways to build rapport. the bigger question is 'why a pr agency' and 'why now?'
pete_dushenski: it's surely more than just a make work project for me in your mind

mircea_popescu: that stuff. and besides, YOU travel now and again don't you ?
mircea_popescu: you'll be going to a lot more conferences i guess.
pete_dushenski: mircea_popescu i certainly traveled plenty pre-monstre, though this will be decidedly diminished for at least 6-12 months. also, such trips only once coincided with a conpherence. going forward, as most traveling i do is personal touristing, these are unlikely to coincide again.

mircea_popescu: this is one of those things "anyone" could do except anyone is a socially awkward fuck and anyone lacks the focus and discipline for doing thigns more complex than microwaving.
mircea_popescu: but other than that, anyone could do it!
pete_dushenski: this may well be the right kind of b-a 'contribution' for me, given that i can't code worth a damn.
pete_dushenski: ima mull it over and research a little further into this 'pr' business ☟︎
mircea_popescu: the only true drawback is that unlike real estate, this is a constant maintenance racket. everything you have at any point won't be useful in 5 years, or even 3. things move too fast. so its not one of those "do this right once it's done forever" stories like alf likes. it's more of a "hold this lamp up".
pete_dushenski: that does sound a bit annoying
pete_dushenski: i quite enjoy my time for reading, writing, etc... hmm.

trinque: ;;later tell funkenstein sadly, new parser ripped up your last deed. happily, the part it ingested included the signature. I've since sent the whole thing back through, and it should pop out shortly.
gribble: The operation succeeded.
trinque: I will keep the torn-off signature up there under block 376696.
trinque: it seems that ply parsers are one-shot, or I've missed something. So far my observation is that if you call parse successively on the same parser object, it misbehaves ☟︎

ascii_field would rather read his spam box than anything pertaining to football, and doesn't foresee this ever changing
punkman: trinque: well you can't get nested structures by parsing the same string twice, it's gotta go in the grammar?
trinque: punkman: grammar wasn't the problem, as I did not change it to fix his deed
trinque: just started instantiating whatever ply object it is every time I go to parse
trinque: seems stupid, yet I don't have the time currently to discover why
trinque: grammar's just looking for headers, footers, and whatever
BingoBoingo: * ascii_field would rather read his spam box than anything pertaining to football, and doesn't foresee this ever changing << Oh just highlighting the other aspect, something not meaningful which people are directed to rage about instead of their cattle pen

asciilifeform: nor does football or not have anything causal to do with 'becoming hamplanet' (it is virtually impossible without 'fast food')
BingoBoingo: Or guide the kid into tennis et al
