ascii_field here's the model i propose to you : current debit is 1mn units/day, say, call this t0. "world ends" event, t1. prices spike 40-50% and social support wanes. demand drops 80%. this is t2. production stops, and the pipeline gets diverted to storage, this is t3. |
16:03 |
mircea_popescu |
the good now moves from pipeline to sotrage pricing, and as a result it will slowly dwindle as price goes exponential and demand collapses. |

[MPEX] [S.MPOE] 9341 @ 0.0007116 = 6.6471 BTC [-] |

so, sales of 100 units/day, at 100x what they cost a day, some point at t5. |
16:05 |
mircea_popescu |
that 1% total sale volume is the last sustainable place for it, after price increases past 100x demand collapses entirely and the good either becomes monetized or disappears outright, in the hands of collectors. |

mircea_popescu |
price doubled. (price doubled specifically bnecause it wasn't all the way, incidentally) |
16:20 |

mircea_popescu: it is actually the best example. of a proggy which naive folks suggest 'will do all the same things' |
20:12 |
mircea_popescu |
that's not the suggestion. what's said is that gimp is like lisp : if what you want to do can't be done in gimp iot's because you're either stupid or stupid. |
20:12 |
mircea_popescu |
ie, want to do something that shouldn't be done, or can't figure out how to find someone's pre-made lisp script |
20:13 |
mircea_popescu |
(yes, gimp trivially works on lisp) |
20:13 |
asciilifeform |
mircea_popescu: go and tell this to a pro artist who has a 14-bit pressure and gyroscopic sensor 'wacom' drawing tablet that pays his rent. |

that does not work with gimp. |

20:13 |
mircea_popescu |
it's current;ly the only practical application i (or ANYONE ELSE, given that eulora challenge) have for lisp |
20:13 |

it or the 1,001 affine transform items it needs |

"artist" using "drawing tablet" is retarded by definition. |

but "vector is hard" is an argument pro ps ? |

it is for the man who doesn't program device drivers. |

how about backwards! |

and you can't vectorize a pencil |
20:15 |
asciilifeform |
not via machine anyway |
20:16 |
mircea_popescu |
fact that wacom doesn't work with software means you can go fuck it, and fact that vectors are hard means you're still better off with gimp |

anyway. yes usg can be rejected just by rejecting it. no, there aren't places where this actually hurts one. yes if one perceives to be hurt it's because one did something stupid in the past he'll have to undo. no this isn't anyone else's problem and no this calls for no sympathy. |

this is entirely true |

20:31 |

or spectrometer user. |
20:31 |
mircea_popescu |
neither. |
20:32 |
asciilifeform |
mircea_popescu: be so kind as to describe what the mass spec user ought to be doing |
20:32 |

20:32 |

20:32 |
mircea_popescu |
buy spectrometer, 2nd hand. reverse it or pay for it be reversed. run it on sane computer. |
20:32 |
asciilifeform |
let's work this gedankenexample? |
20:32 |
asciilifeform |
mircea_popescu: and pay to have sane computer produced ? |
20:32 |
mircea_popescu |
useful life of the tool is 30 years +, so. you get to "break it in" for a few months first. |
20:33 |
mircea_popescu |
a "sane-indistinct" computer can be had for the task as defined, out of shelf parts. |
20:33 |
asciilifeform |
mircea_popescu perhaps did not think that usg could be any moar retarded than it looks already, but here is a mega-secret: a great many (most?) u.s. laboratories have personnel empowered to purchase materiel (e.g., spectrometer) but not ever hire anyone. |
20:34 |

hence no reverser. |

asciilifeform would like to know - but does not expect mircea_popescu to say - why mircea_popescu believes the 'cheap' coinz are fictional, rather than panic-sold by the usual folks |

normally the price goes 10 / 11 |
22:48 |
asciilifeform |
mircea_popescu: apparently not? |
22:48 |
mircea_popescu |
when the price goes 10 / 7 it is because the people selling the fake btc do no wish to run their meagre offering into the bids of 10 |
22:49 |
mircea_popescu |
so they fix the "exchange" to not serve bids anymore. |
22:49 |

but serve some, for show ? |

mircea_popescu |
yes. |

so as to get the fraudulent price signal out |

so that maybe others panic. |

22:50 |
mircea_popescu |
unless the sec particularly wants me to run an investigation into IT., |
22:51 |
asciilifeform |
10 / 7 is sufficient evidence for this hypothesis? and bitfinex alone originates this gambit ? |
22:51 |

with the caveat that i run my investigations with people hanging by butcher hooks. |

'Due to the ECI relationship, the technicians for AT&T had to possess a Top Secret security clearance to actually just access the fiber, because they might "accidentally" discover the tap, or discover data being diverted out of the fiber optic multiplexers.

rint has one, and so on. The ECI codename for AT&T is "FAIRVIEW" and also US-990, but pay attention to the US-990 SIGAD code and it tends to indicate when a code and alias was initiated. US-990 dates from the day AT&T was broken up. On that date, each of the "baby bells" was given a ECI codename and SIGAD code name in the manner of that of AT&T.' |
