asciilifeform imagine such a thing in anglo world [00:01]
asciilifeform last was what, bbc circa 1950s ? [00:01]
mircea_popescu even 1980s [00:01]
asciilifeform possib [00:01]
asciilifeform bbc foreign service. [00:01]
asciilifeform for ru listeners. [00:01]
asciilifeform and probably not that either. [00:01]
mircea_popescu "White female managers usually end up with nervous breakdowns and are not as effective as men, but are 100% loyal and never steal, ever. This is the backbone of any retail food staff, white chicks. Work her until she breaks and get another." [00:03]
mircea_popescu this is a PARTICULARLY insightful piece from lafond guy huh. [00:03]
mircea_popescu might be the most competent thing i read all week on the open wwwbs. [00:03]
mircea_popescu "Black female managers are rarely effective and steal at 50%—fully half of the ones I have worked with being confirmed thieves." << lioness hunting for the clan as opposed to the ball busting harpy gioving herself and everyone else aneurisms. makes sense, huh. [00:05]
mircea_popescu "Women, white and black, who do not qualify for management, are usually not worth anything on the staff, and generally steal at about 20%, with lower paid working black girls less than half as likely to steal as their management counterparts, and white girls on staff infinitely more larcenous than the white girls in management. I won’t even try and explain this, as it boggles my mind." it doesn't boggle my mind any. [00:07]
mircea_popescu seems pretty obvious. [00:07]

mircea_popescu i guess it boggles his mind because it makes a point he doesn't wish to hear. anyway, race has exactrly nothing to do with it : woman can either be my slave, out to carve your empire into the dust, or one of the empire's own aspirationally-vacuous wastes of flesh, brigading social media so that maybe it has some effect on reality.

The journey has been beautiful, exhilarating, exciting with lots of learning for all of us." [00:53]
mircea_popescu dude... get the fuck out already. [00:53]
mircea_popescu you hung around shitty office space and derped on the internet. learned ~nothing. [00:54]
mircea_popescu so intel reports that medium.com is headquartered at 760 market st, sf. just like "dropbox" and pretty much every other ycombinator scam / "entreprenize" to date. so therefore "why are all these derps with failed 'business ideas', 0 experience, 0 awareness, 0 clue on medium.com ?"

asciilifeform this re: stitches [12:16]
mircea_popescu no. it's that a lot of [actual] rapists have uncomfortably large penises, but also the oversexed traits to go with them [12:18]
mircea_popescu which is why functioning brothels kill rape [actual rape]. [12:18]
mircea_popescu but anyway, back to castrato issues : "Waiting for customers, waiting for customers to make a decision, hoping a customer will say yes, waiting for the customer to sign the check after saying yes is a very long process. During this time, your company has to pay for expenses, costs and salaries." <<< jesus christ these people. why the fuck would you think a start-up is even a business at all if those customers are doin [12:18]
mircea_popescu g anything but begging you to take their money ? here's a simple rule of thumb : if your start-up is not in this position where someone somewhere perceives he can't afford NOT to pay you, it's not a start-up. it might be a business idea, perhaps, but it can not be a start-up. [12:18]
mircea_popescu the difference being that businesses happen at the tip of a large pushing force, such as the airbnb scam pushed by paul graham-madoff, or such as "green energy" scam pushed by president bahamas-madoff. to be a start-up is exactly opposite to this, you're alone. [12:18]
