| asciilifeform: | mircea_popescu: they are locals. | [13:21] |

| asciilifeform: | mircea_popescu: substantial costs in car windows alone | [13:22] |
| phf: | well, if you have a cause, by up a whole block, put a fence around it, reinforce windows, have a nice workshop space or whatever. as long as nobody's bicycling in you're solid | [13:22] |
| asciilifeform: | (idiots smash first, look for valuables later) | [13:22] |
| mircea_popescu: | phf this is a monopoly trade. if you're not in the right lawyer club you'll end up in the middle of a scandal. | [13:22] |

| mircea_popescu: | asciilifeform it is ev, just, not for everyone. | [13:22] |
| asciilifeform: | and not for the others either, apparently | [13:23] |
| mircea_popescu: | lafond correctly shows that the whole "race riots" is just demographic rearrangement after some dudes decided to reclaim 1920s buildings downtown | [13:23] |
| asciilifeform: | judging by the 0 uptake among the dirigible dwellers. | [13:23] |
| phf: | asciilifeform: speculators sell in to markets, some things just don't have easily identifiable markets | [13:23] |
| mircea_popescu: | asciilifeform why would i work for the us ? | [13:23] |
| mircea_popescu: | one needs a sort of patriotic dweller to engage in this sort of thing. | [13:23] |
| asciilifeform: | and they've run out, apparently. | [13:23] |
| asciilifeform: | anyway asciilifeform will not be building baltimore fort. | [13:24] |
| mircea_popescu: | phf maybe particular pufferfish may get away with it if small and exceptional. | [13:24] |
| mircea_popescu: | but as a for-profit thing, you need your own army. | [13:24] |
| asciilifeform: | i would buy one for a workshop but it'll get emptied as soon as i drive off. | [13:25] |
| asciilifeform: | if i wanted to give my gear to scrap iron thieves, i could do it FOR PHREE, without paying 10k for the container | [13:25] |

| phf: | mircea_popescu: oh i agree, but i'm not telling other pufferfish how to do things, i'm talking from my school :> i'm not even saying it's somehow special. it's just very cheap to put a workspace area in ghetto if the people working it are basically ok with manual labour, "community building" all that jazz | [13:25] |
| mircea_popescu: | nah, jackals are essentially cowardly. | [13:26] |
| asciilifeform: | if i wanted to replay waco, could also do it for free, without buying any real estate. | [13:26] |
| mircea_popescu: | phf and are mostly men. | [13:26] |
| mircea_popescu: | you go, put a "designer etsy girl" community in ghetoo. take pix. | [13:26] |
| mircea_popescu: | asciilifeform correct response to waco buildup is thermobaric not atomic bomb. | [13:27] |
| phf: | etsy designer girls have downtown coworking spaces for $100/mo/person | [13:27] |
| asciilifeform: | mircea_popescu: flechette mortar rounds. | [13:27] |
| mircea_popescu: | that's actually kinda cheap | [13:27] |
| mircea_popescu: | are downtown blowjobs like $15 or something ? | [13:28] |
| phf: | for a chair? | [13:28] |
| asciilifeform: | everything's is cheap to the folks who already have it. and $maxint for those who don't. | [13:28] |
| mircea_popescu: | asciilifeform hey, they do have it. work a day, get a grand or so. who ever heard of this, rent < 1 day's honest work ? | [13:28] |
| phf: | that's not for a room, that's essentially "club membership" | [13:28] |
| asciilifeform: | mircea_popescu: which they | [13:28] |
| mircea_popescu: | ah like a gym, but w/o fat shaming ? | [13:29] |
| asciilifeform: | or is this on mircea_popescu's ammonia-breathing planet | [13:29] |
| BingoBoingo: | <asciilifeform> everything's is cheap to the folks who already have it. and $maxint for those who don't. << I did not have a pipe wrench yesterday morning and yet $2 got me one before bed time on the same day. | [13:29] |
| phf: | yeah, basically. you get a floor of a building, put a bunch of tables, a few "closed door" closets for people who are willing to pay $400/mo, a printer, a coffeemaker, and then you charge people $100/mo to have a place to sit and chat all day | [13:30] |
| mircea_popescu: | oh incidentally, all this has stimulated me, ima go write a follow-up to http://trilema.com/2013/nobody-could-have-foreseen-their-using-a-plane-like-a-rocket/ | [13:30] |

| * asciilifeform | bbl, off to get teeth drilled sans anaesthesia | [13:32] |
| phf: | 1776 is the biggest one, they have daily talks on how to succeed as a woman ceo, workshops on how to learn ruby. probably a good subject for a blog post, a tour of 1776 on an average day.. | [13:33] |
| phf: | i'm not even exaggerating to pander, the whole thing is a parody of itself | [13:34] |
| mircea_popescu: | phf very good, i'd check it. | [13:35] |
| phf: | everybody's talking about how they are going to be bought, who got bought, who has an opportunity to get bought. we have our support team there, because they are in their 20s, need external stimulation, etc. but on the flip side they periodically come back with grandiose plans "for the company" | [13:36] |
| phf: | one guy (support) got it in his head that he's going to open a london branch of the company, he regularly arranges meetings with random uk business representatives to discuss along these lines. i heard he had some kind of meeting with richard branson as part of a small select group, etc. etc. mind you this has long been shot down by the owners as utterly insane and shut the fuck up. doesn't deter him. | [13:38] |
| phf: | it's like they are cooking in the 1776 delusion soup, completely detached from reality | [13:39] |
| phf: | that's definitely not the types i would want anywhere near a baltimore ghetto workshop. not only are they useless, they are also going to do something stupid, get shot or raped and next thing you know we're in the middle of scandal | [13:41] |
| mircea_popescu: | lmao | [13:41] |
| BingoBoingo: | I think it would be good for their morale | [13:42] |
| mircea_popescu: | phf well, depends if you're looking to monetize the scandal. | [13:43] |
| BingoBoingo: | If they can't leave their hug bubble because James Lafond presents, then they get to build up all the delusion still hotter | [13:43] |
| mircea_popescu: | ironically, you'd be in a dark cone of immunity because the derps can't quite argue that YOU are responsible by putting kids in harm's way, because they can't say black people are the harm. | [13:43] |
| mircea_popescu: | so ... who knows. | [13:43] |
| mircea_popescu: | go there and compassionately offer them rape kits, or something. | [13:44] |
| BingoBoingo: | Who knows, maybe startup culture has a tin pest sort of effect on the hood? | [13:45] |
| BingoBoingo: | Gangs obsessing over their London and Rotterdam expansions and whatnot | [13:46] |
| phf: | pretty sure The Wire made fun of the whole "gangs trying to play white people games" | [13:59] |
| trinque: | I recall a hilarious "board meeting" in an episode, I think. | [14:00] |
| mircea_popescu: | BingoBoingo should be lulzy in any case lol. | [14:00] |
| mircea_popescu: | phf this'd be that in reverse neh ? | [14:01] |
| phf: | oh that was in response to BingoBoingo's idea | [14:04] |
| mircea_popescu: | theoretically the millions upon millions of pointless white kids that tear down the universities each year and the nation's finances would utterly dilute the hood into meaninglessness. | [14:04] |
| mircea_popescu: | in practice, they're much too passive to matter. | [14:04] |
| thestringpuller: | mircea_popescu: uh. white kids who move to the hood tend to "gentrify" it... | [14:05] |
| mircea_popescu: | nah, not to gentrify. they're not gentry. just, to scumiffy in a different direction. | [14:05] |
| thestringpuller: | oh. i don't even know if those white kids could even AFFORD to live in the hood. | [14:06] |
| thestringpuller: | that's why they move back home with mommy and daddy rent free | [14:06] |
| mircea_popescu: | well, slumlord phf buy the place for them, then charges them 100 a month for a dildo to sit on | [14:06] |
| thestringpuller: | i think you're accurately describing brooklyn | [14:07] |
| mircea_popescu: | lol | [14:08] |
| mircea_popescu: | word huh | [14:08] |
| shinohai: | Afternoon #trilema folks | [14:12] |
| phf: | so i've lived on the gentrification line before and it's never "white kids", they move in when after the whole thing is named "gentrification" and by then there's already a whole foods in the works. gentrification is brought about by utter misfit john waters crowd, and they prime the area for couple of years by throwing parties and making things happen, large portion of them is gay and otherwise insane. | [14:15] |
| phf: | once landlords or developers are involved the area has long been considered "interesting" by suburban types and "done" by the gentrification avant guard | [14:16] |
| trinque: | that happened in montrose, area of inner-loop houston | [14:17] |
| trinque: | "the gayborhood" | [14:17] |
| phf: | you get a balmore workshop not because it's a conan thing to do, but because you're insane and need to paint astral vaginas whether or not there's market for it, and you can afford to pay $90/mo (sometimes late) for your apartment and $100/mo (mostly late) for your studio | [14:17] |
| phf: | yeah, the non space eventually actualizes into a named thing, and it can be "hipsters" like what happened to brooklyn or "gays" like what happened to dupont circle | [14:19] |
| phf: | the insane borderline chick that was my radar for these things wanted to move to williamsburg in 2002 or so cause that's where here friends were, by 2005 they had awesome parties there, by 2008 everybody knew they had awesome parties there, by 2012 the rent started to climb, by 2014 yuppies moving in, 2015 it's a joke that everyone's in on | [14:21] |

| phf: | well, that's an opinion. a proper exploration of this subject would answer questions like what was revenue sources, what were the expenses, and then go backwards from there, figuring out where and how those were compromised or failed to correct. smbx burned through something like 10mil 80s cash in 2 years. and they burned through them by being locked into real estate, that lost value post crash. so can explore how the internal culture contributed | [17:01] |
| phf: | to bubbling debt, etc. not saying that either of us could do it in a few sentences, but that's what i would expect from proper paper on the subject. real estate is not even mentioned in the above hack job | [17:01] |
| asciilifeform: | phf: that the market consisted ~100% of usg, and that it stopped buying, and the commitments smbx was locked into spending-wise remained, and bankrupted it - is not mega-seekrit. | [17:02] |
| phf: | asciilifeform: not at all 100% usg, that's why there was the west coast symbolics media lab, also government didn't stop buying, the contracts were bringing revenue well into the endof90s (i mean still do, but now it's life support peanuts) | [17:04] |

| asciilifeform: | and various folks ( mircea_popescu ? ) pointed out that it is 2000 ln of unaudited crud, that ought not be used in battlefield | [17:11] |
| asciilifeform: | then again it is 1) unaudited crud that predates bitcoin | [17:11] |
| asciilifeform: | 2) never touches input from outside world if properly operated. | [17:11] |
| shinohai: | No but I see the benefits of having rpc commands use it, as I would love to see those commands separated from daemon | [17:11] |

| asciilifeform: | (or your own scheme) | [17:33] |

| asciilifeform: | sellers of derelicts that are a few $k of new carpet away from habitability. | [17:49] |

| mircea_popescu: | sooo, ethereum "soft fork" due to go in, about 60 hours left. i hope everyone's ready for the lulzpocalypse | [19:40] |
| * shinohai | puts popcorn on his shopping list. | [19:43] |
| mircea_popescu: | (one of the lulziest parts - they made their criteria be < cost. in non-scamcoin-head terms, this is not unlike making a soft fork dependent on mempool being < x.) | [19:44] |
| mircea_popescu: | ethereum being "smart", it's not just mempool, but also cpupool. and the "soft fork" being essentially a "enumerate badness" attempt, you still gotta check and make sure tx isn't on the verboten list. which computation you do for free, because you believe in mit, socialism and buterin. | [19:46] |
| mircea_popescu: | cold equations be damn' cold. | [19:46] |
| asciilifeform: | mircea_popescu: which is why imho you oughta have made the 'bad' addr list a few GB. | [20:00] |
| asciilifeform: | not a few hundred bytes. | [20:00] |
| mircea_popescu: | hm ? which ? | [20:11] |
| asciilifeform: | the list of verboten eth addrs | [20:11] |
| asciilifeform: | or hm iirc there was some timelock thing | [20:12] |
| mircea_popescu: | but then the problem'd have been obvious ? | [20:12] |
| asciilifeform: | which | [20:12] |
| mircea_popescu: | the above discussed | [20:12] |
| asciilifeform: | not really problem if each node only has to verify tx against list of length 1 | [20:13] |
| mircea_popescu: | they wouldn't have discoverd it exists week-and-a-half after "having a solution" and buolding consensus etc | [20:13] |
| mircea_popescu: | mmm. if only. | [20:13] |
| asciilifeform: | what am i missing | [20:14] |
| mircea_popescu: | tx can be pretty cpu intensive. | [20:14] |
| asciilifeform: | yeah but how much more cpu intensive can ONE verboten-addr make it | [20:15] |
| mircea_popescu: | hugely so. | [20:15] |
| mircea_popescu: | all you need is one | [20:15] |
| * mircea_popescu | sings | [20:15] |
| asciilifeform: | isn't it a constant-time op ? | [20:15] |
| mircea_popescu: | nope. | [20:16] |
| mircea_popescu: | i don't think you fully appreciate just how braindamaged this "laughing gas of the future" actually is. | [20:16] |
| asciilifeform: | in bitcoin, it would be: if (addr == eviladdr) return fuckyou | [20:17] |
| asciilifeform: | approximately. | [20:17] |
| asciilifeform: | http://wotpaste.cascadianhacker.com/pastes/68bd5d9a-3dac-49f6-9c36-d2a98a459a65/?raw=true << moar miscellaneous lulz | [20:25] |

| mircea_popescu: | " Things are probably going to get worse before they get better." << ahahahaha. | [20:27] |
| asciilifeform: | 'It's tempting to wonder if there's some cointelpro-style attack going on. Realistically, we likely do have the attention of governments who are well-funded to attack us. But first, this really doesn't look like a cointelpro op. The complaints come from people both inside and outside the Tor community, and I know some of them. And second, in this case it really doesn't matter. It's no excuse for not taking responsibility for our acti | [20:27] |
| asciilifeform: | ons. Tor, and our broader freedom movement, are about communities, and about how we want to interact with each other. Let's handle this situation as an example of how we want to do it right.' | [20:27] |

| asciilifeform: | mod6: i need 4 walls. | [23:39] |

| asciilifeform: | trinque, mod6, et al: wikis work when folks actually bother editing.. | [23:44] |
| trinque: | I don't see how it's better than html shat in a folder somewhere | [23:45] |
| asciilifeform: | how to edit ? folks get shell on the box ? | [23:45] |

| mircea_popescu: | mod6 leave it for now, i'll bitch when | [23:57] |
| mircea_popescu: | trinque tbh, i think wikis are a (braindamaged, dysfunctional, uncomprehending) response to the html-is-broken / transclusion issue discussed yest and etc. | [23:58] |
