asciilifeform | 'Looking at this broad landscape of failure, there are two ways to interpret it. One is that the US officialdom is the most incompetent one imaginable, and can't ever get anything right. But another is that they do not succeed for a distinctly different reason: they don't succeed because results don't matter. You see, if failure were a problem, then there would be some sort of pressure coming from somewhere or other within the | [01:11] |
asciilifeform | establishment, and that pressure to succeed might sporadically give rise to improved performance, leading to at least a few instances of success. But if in fact failure is no problem at all, and if instead there was some sort of pressure to fail, then we would see exactly what we do see.' | [01:11] |

mircea_popescu | "Egypt has been democratically reformed into a military dictatorship. " | [01:39] |
mircea_popescu | lol. then again, egypt was a military dictatorship under the mubarak dude, who wrested egypt in a coup from the... previous military dictator. | [01:40] |
mircea_popescu | place's gotta do what it's gotta do. | [01:40] |
decimation | what about $bil's of bezzle? that helps too | [01:40] |
decimation | http://www.andreas-unterberger.at/2013/05/buecherverbrennungen-damals-und-heute/ < good quote "Johannes Gross, einer der klügsten deutschen Journalisten, schrieb: „Je länger das Dritte Reich tot ist, umso stärker wird der Widerstand gegen Hitler und die Seinen.”" | [01:41] |
assbot | Bücherverbrennungen damals und heute ... ( http://bit.ly/1wNUqyP ) | [01:41] |
mircea_popescu | uh. | [01:42] |
mircea_popescu | im not even sure what that's supposed to mean | [01:43] |
decimation | Johannes Gross, one of the smartest German journalists, wrote: The longer the third reich is dead, the greater the resistance against hitler and his ilk becomes" | [01:43] |
decimation | the point is that being anti-nazi is easy and super popular today | [01:43] |
mircea_popescu | but i mean... | [01:43] |
decimation | not so much in 1943 | [01:43] |
mircea_popescu | this is patently untrue. | [01:43] |
mircea_popescu | being anti-nazi was the thing in 1943. today... would you not fuck a nazi ? | [01:44] |
decimation | heh | [01:44] |
decimation | in berlin it's otherwise | [01:44] |
mircea_popescu | you know, berlin women got raped by the soviets mostly. | [01:44] |
mircea_popescu | and that's quite similar : the soviets were impopular in 1990, more so than in 2010. | [01:45] |
mircea_popescu | asciilifeform it's at least rethorically seductive, this theory. "the us is basically emo, it wants to fail." | [01:45] |
decimation | yeah but I don't think it 'wants to fail' because of a secret cabal of financiers | [01:46] |

mircea_popescu | thestringpuller not open. | [01:46] |
decimation | I think it wants to fail because it cannot imagine otherwise | [01:46] |
mircea_popescu | well... being emo, right ? | [01:46] |
mircea_popescu | failure is oddly satisfying. | [01:47] |
* | assbot removes voice from deedbot- | [01:47] |
thestringpuller | mircea_popescu: what about the future assets pipeline? that going to be rolled straight into beta server? | [01:47] |

ben_vulpes | mircea_popescu: 'eulora accounts' << "isambard vulpes" sil vous plait | [01:48] |

decimation | ben_vulpes: if you ever end up in london you can visit Herr Brunel's tunnel | [01:49] |
mod6 | trinque: heheh. np. | [01:49] |
mircea_popescu | "Now, supposing a financial oligarchy has seized control of the country, and, since it can't control its own appetites" such nonsense. what appetites ? | [01:49] |
mircea_popescu | i got more harems than horowitz. | [01:49] |
thestringpuller | mircea_popescu: you ever heard of TurboSquid? | [01:50] |
mircea_popescu | nop. | [01:50] |
ben_vulpes | decimation: next time i'm in london i expect to see all sorts of historical engineering bits | [01:51] |
mircea_popescu | "Military success is unimportant, because failure is even better for maintaining order by forcing through various emergency security measures than success." << this is known as the "north korea" versio of us future. because obviously best kim is in a state of imagined war with an imagined world. | [01:51] |
mircea_popescu | it seems improbable, but hey. | [01:51] |
ben_vulpes | mircea_popescu: now for to find some time to 'play' 'games' | [01:51] |
mircea_popescu | ben_vulpes consider it gambling. | [01:51] |
mircea_popescu | Political collapse will be resisted, and the way it will be resisted is by starting as many wars as possible, to produce a vast backdrop of failure to serve as a rationale for all sorts of “emergency measures,” << i said this a number of times, but it bears repeating : if this happens every usg employee, past or present, hangs by his guts. | [01:53] |
mircea_popescu | that is a literal rather than metaphorical description. | [01:53] |
thestringpuller | mircea_popescu: pretty sure you've described the bitcoin version of it here: http://trilema.com/2014/smg-april-2014-statement/ | [01:54] |
* | DreadKnight (~DreadKnig@unaffiliated/dreadknight) has joined #bitcoin-assets | [01:55] |
mircea_popescu | thestringpuller "bitcoin version of it' what ? | [01:55] |
decimation | you know after the national convention took over and started calling for massive troop levies, the Vendée rose up with pitchforks and starting executing anyone who appeared to be a revolutionary | [01:55] |
thestringpuller | " strategically speaking I intend to create a digital services marketplace, and would very much like to use the large and varied needs of Eulora acquisition to seed that platform" | [01:55] |
thestringpuller | That pretty much is turbosquid just, with USD. | [01:56] |
decimation | this happened mere months after the revolution was proclaimed to be 'of the people', 'for human rights', 'freedom', etc | [01:56] |
mircea_popescu | thestringpuller aha. | [01:56] |
mircea_popescu | unless turbosquid guy shows up in wot turbosquid dun exist. | [01:57] |
ben_vulpes | mircea_popescu: well that doesn't sound like any fun now | [01:57] |
mircea_popescu | decimation this is true. | [01:57] |
mircea_popescu | ben_vulpes im tryin to help. | [01:57] |
decimation | so my question is: why doesn't this happen in the us - all sorts of crazy 'reforms' are pushed down by the center | [01:57] |
ben_vulpes | "don't put yr pennies down, kid. you'll just lose 'em". | [01:57] |
mircea_popescu | decimation probably because no instructive website yet ? | [01:58] |
mircea_popescu | same reason dating's so hard | [01:58] |
decimation | and another question: is it possible for a universal suffrage democracy to tolerate actual dissent? | [01:59] |
assbot | [MPEX] [S.MPOE] 61826 @ 0.00040895 = 25.2837 BTC [-] {4} | [01:59] |
thestringpuller | mircea_popescu: this raises and interesting question, hypothetically TurboSquid is WoT endorsed company. Would the artists be required to be WoT endorsed too? | [01:59] |
mircea_popescu | well yeah. | [02:00] |
asciilifeform | a 'turbosquid' ought not to be anything but a powered, peristaltic, multi-tentacular autodildatron. | [02:00] |
mircea_popescu | why hate the celenterate! | [02:00] |
asciilifeform | pet: 'i agree with this statement' | [02:01] |
ben_vulpes | peristaltic! | [02:01] |
ben_vulpes | ? | [02:01] |
ben_vulpes | turbo?! | [02:01] |
ben_vulpes | no.d | [02:01] |
mircea_popescu | peristalsis is a bowel movement. | [02:01] |
ben_vulpes | a million times no. | [02:01] |
asciilifeform | mircea_popescu is not thinking of the rest of anatomy | [02:02] |
asciilifeform | not only bowel | [02:02] |
asciilifeform | anyway, travelling-wave dildo doesn't seem to exist, and i never knew why | [02:02] |
mircea_popescu | well just like infarction without further specification is cardiac infarction... | [02:03] |
ben_vulpes | traveling wave dildo? | [02:04] |
asciilifeform | (much unexplored design space in dildonics. for instance, a cylindrical/topologically-toroidal 'conveyor' with belt that recirculates through inner hollow, could product impression of infinite length) | [02:04] |
asciilifeform | *produce | [02:04] |
ben_vulpes | i think augur designs exist approximating this. | [02:05] |
asciilifeform | ben_vulpes: auger ? | [02:05] |
ben_vulpes | but you'll have to tell me how effective they are, asciilifeform. | [02:05] |
ben_vulpes | yes, yes. | [02:05] |
mircea_popescu | asciilifeform amusingly, i actually had this design made, and tried on live girls. | [02:05] |

asciilifeform | how'd it go?! | [02:05] |
asciilifeform | and which - toroidal, or wave ? | [02:06] |
mircea_popescu | best intro to fisting. | [02:06] |
mircea_popescu | basically a flatish torus, looks like a cylinder from outside | [02:06] |
asciilifeform | don't suppose a photo was published ? | [02:07] |
mircea_popescu | was not. fucking complicated even without involving the cameras. | [02:07] |
mircea_popescu | its main advantage tho, is that it reduces any need for friction. | [02:08] |
asciilifeform | damnit, here i was, thinking i'd actually invented something useful, l0l | [02:08] |
mircea_popescu | well what, invented a geometric shape ? | [02:08] |
mircea_popescu | it's not 500bc anymore, you know. | [02:08] |
asciilifeform | neh | [02:08] |
asciilifeform | the idea of toroidal 'belt sander' as dildatron | [02:08] |
mircea_popescu | more like track than belt sander rly. | [02:09] |
mircea_popescu | unrelatedly, http://31.media.tumblr.com/657bb727d9237bf557266ca15de00fa5/tumblr_n8uf9fngfP1qb139no1_400.gif | [02:10] |

pete_dushenski | Since our blockchain has a number of important differences with the Bitcoin blockchain (mainly in transaction density), stemming from the extremely short 12s block time we’re aiming for, we would have to use not the blockchain data itself like Hashimoto but rather an artifcially created dataset, done with an algorithm known as Dagger (yes, some will remember it as Vitalik’s first and flawed attempt at a memo | [04:10] |

ben_vulpes | and on the other hand, well, nominal equity in a thing? | [05:40] |
ben_vulpes | shit like... | [05:40] |
ben_vulpes | I don’t believe payments to owners in professional services firms are the residual profits. And why should they be, when the employees can leave and set up shop across the street with almost no need for equity capital? In the implicit negotiation over distribution of revenue, the employees have all the bargaining power. The equity will be paid a fair return, but will not receive any structural | [05:40] |
ben_vulpes | increases in revenue. On the other hand, | [05:40] |
ben_vulpes | the equity will continue to bear the majority of the variability in profits. This view, while not the standard economic view, has the advantage of being supported by reality. (It also accounts for why non-partner-owned professional services firms tend to conglomerate, but that’s another post.)” | [05:41] |
ben_vulpes | just rings too true for comfort though. | [05:41] |
ben_vulpes | perhaps i'm insane or a particularly good scammer, but i can close deals that none of the programmers on staff could ever dream of. hilariously, because they're on staff. | [05:41] |
ben_vulpes | but at the same time, because i'm not a nightmare to work with, i have a near-infinite sell wall of talent. | [05:42] |

ben_vulpes | mk let's try again | [05:43] |
ben_vulpes | "when the employees can leave and set up shop across the street with almost no need for equity capital" << this is absolutely true, except for the part where they have to close deals. make friends with checkbooks, convince checkbooks of non-retardation, etc. | [05:43] |
ben_vulpes | "the equity will continue to bear the majority of the variability in profits" << painfully true. | [05:44] |
mircea_popescu | how is it true ? | [05:44] |
ben_vulpes | devs clock time, get paid hours. simple maffs. | [05:44] |

mircea_popescu | it seems a rehash of "i could code mpex in an afternoon. you kidding, it has no css even" | [05:45] |
mircea_popescu | if THAT is what is meant by "equity" the speaker is a retard. | [05:45] |

mircea_popescu | ben_vulpes essentially, i don't think you're proceeding on actually defined (or even considered) symbols. | [05:46] |
ben_vulpes | that's certainly possible. | [05:47] |
mircea_popescu | unrelatedly : the article does the valuable service of reminind people of volcker's potion. yes, interest rates WERE 20% in 81. | [05:47] |
mircea_popescu | and yes it did work. and no, the bezzle wasn't as bad then as it is now. | [05:47] |
mircea_popescu | and yes that's what i'd do as fed chairman : interest hike to 35%. | [05:47] |
ben_vulpes | what's a reasonable set of symbols? | [05:48] |
mircea_popescu | ben_vulpes these can be fine if you can actually explain them. so, how is it true ? | [05:48] |
Vexual | everything mariio bros | [05:48] |
ben_vulpes | so equity being ownership stake in derpy consulting co. | [05:49] |
ben_vulpes | profits being that which is left over after paying out contractors, staff, rent etc. | [05:49] |
mircea_popescu | i don't think you understand what equity is. | [05:49] |
Vexual | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yBjbHZrjckk fuck snow | [05:49] |
mircea_popescu | equity is the accounting term for the philosophical notion of fairness. | [05:50] |
ben_vulpes | ah. | [05:50] |
mircea_popescu | so for instance : if you go fishing in my boat, | [05:51] |
mircea_popescu | i have an equity interest in your fish. because it was my boat. | [05:51] |
cazalla | Vexual, no idea, some people are pinning the theft on friedcat and provided a supposed chinese police report but turned out it was a .. random birth certificate | [05:51] |
mircea_popescu | that equity is not the ownership of the boat, but an effect thereof. | [05:52] |
Vexual | yeah busininess breed paranoia | [05:52] |
mircea_popescu | this should readily resolve the apparent dilemma : if i do in fact have equity in your firm, it means i did something useful. | [05:53] |
mircea_popescu | this means that if i hadn't the equity, it wouldn't be "the same thing". | [05:53] |
mircea_popescu | right ? | [05:53] |
Vexual | done and done | [05:53] |
Vexual | verily | [05:53] |

Vexual | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zQ6FhS8jMHE | [05:55] |

ben_vulpes | let's try again. | [05:56] |
ben_vulpes | i could freelance, at some rate - let's say 2BTC/hr | [05:57] |
ben_vulpes | (impossible, but for rounding errors) | [05:57] |
mircea_popescu | ok. | [05:58] |
ben_vulpes | instead, i coordinate work of the type i could perform on my own. that work costs me, let's say .8B. i bill at ~1.8. on volume, my take home is ~1.5B/hr (assuming 40hrs/wk, 50wks/yr. salary equality assumptions, etc.). | [05:59] |

mircea_popescu | " They also remember the high-tech crash of 1984, and the screams of pain up and down Wall Street." << heh it nearly killed gaming altogether, and is responsible for killing consoles. (yes they still exist, but gaming is essentially a pc item) | [06:02] |
ben_vulpes | the linked article on one hand doesn't make a terrific amount of sense to me because for whatever reason (perhaps i'm a particularly well-doing con man), i can sell into the buy side of "professional services" at rates that my "bankers" can't touch on their own. | [06:03] |
ben_vulpes | on the other hand, during those thing months, the "bankers" walk with hours*rate, and i lose money. | [06:03] |
mircea_popescu | that reason having a lot to do with the equity of your position, which you don't account for. | [06:03] |
mircea_popescu | " my take home is ~1.5B/hr" [+ ??? B/hr in equity] | [06:03] |
ben_vulpes | right, so we come back around to equity which i clearly don't understand formally. | [06:04] |
ben_vulpes | yeah i have no idea how to account for that. | [06:04] |
mircea_popescu | you do, yes. " except for the part where they have to close deals. make friends with checkbooks, convince checkbooks of non-retardation, etc" | [06:04] |
mircea_popescu | those are all examples. | [06:04] |
ben_vulpes | ouch. | [06:06] |
mircea_popescu | hence my comment about "redoing mpex". the proposition that any two things are the same thing has serious problems in the marketplace. | [06:06] |

ben_vulpes | i can think of fifteen utterly moronic doodz doing running precisely the same hustle and making vastly more money at it. | [06:07] |
ben_vulpes | 99% of that is likely attributable to simply how much longer they've been doing it for. | [06:08] |
mircea_popescu | cash basis is a very poor accounting principle. | [06:08] |
mircea_popescu | it's fundamentally what makes people chase college degrees instead of being plumbers ; and the impulse that makes people quit their job and take up gambling after a neighbour strikes the powerball., | [06:09] |
ben_vulpes | ugh yeah and ofc shartups. | [06:11] |
ben_vulpes | so here's the thing about shartups: | [06:11] |
mircea_popescu | you're better off with equity than with cash, provided you can distinguish good from bad | [06:11] |
mircea_popescu | cash has this advantage, that it's all the same. | [06:12] |
mircea_popescu | currently, that all the same means equally bad. | [06:12] |

mircea_popescu | but otherwise, the bit of history they're trying to purge is that vessennes was the head and treasurer of the thing, in total outrageous breach of common practice, and he got all the early bitcoin donated to it in his own name and used it for his own purposes. | [19:55] |
ascii_field | if anyone actually gives a fuck about these, cache'em - archive.org can and has been prevailed upon to do the 'polite society' thing before | [19:55] |
mircea_popescu | the current foundation is an embarassing shell, nothing but obligaitons for them so they're trying to shed it. | [19:55] |

ascii_field | at this point they need to pray to the gods, possibly no amount of naggum will suffice | [20:10] |
mircea_popescu | entirely besides the point. | [20:10] |
ascii_field | the very concept that software could actually work in the sense in which other engineered objects work, is nearly forgotten | [20:11] |

ascii_field | (see today's log for example) | [20:11] |
mircea_popescu | they have nothing. this is proof positive that the cia is as worthless as the vassar feminist book club. | [20:11] |
mircea_popescu | think about hassling beria in that manner. | [20:11] |
ascii_field | kryuchkov had nobody either | [20:12] |
