" rnadom dope dealers because this guy was a dope fiend" |
| 11:13 |

no, you arrest random dope dealers because x number of people are dope fiends and it has a net negative effect on the society in which the dope dealing takes place |
| 11:13 |
mircea_popescu |
well this doesn't in practice work. |

nubbins`: i think its very easy to not bring anything back to flatland...hard work to "bring something back"...to learn a lesson |
| 11:45 |
mircea_popescu |
ow fuck me. there is no lesson |
| 11:46 |

^ that's the lesson |
| 11:46 |
mircea_popescu |
incredible what a broken fucking tool the mind is. |
| 11:46 |
nubbins` |
on that we can agree |
| 11:47 |
nubbins` |
herbijudlestoids: well, it's just as easy to have a bunch of fun than to learn something |
| 11:47 |
mircea_popescu |
romanian makes the distinction between fun and diversion |
| 11:47 |
mircea_popescu |
in that it calls both "diversion" |
| 11:47 |
mircea_popescu |
i think it actually serves better than calling both "fun" |
| 11:47 |
nubbins` |
just because you're in your desk, in school, doesn't mean you're doing math problems instead of doodling monsters |
| 11:48 |
nubbins` |
just because you can no longer distinguish the border between your mind and the outside world doesn't mean you're having an epiphany |
| 11:49 |
nubbins` |
but, y'know, some kids actually do the math, and are sort of confused when someone tells them "school is just for horsing around anyway" |
| 11:49 |
herbijudlestoids |
mircea_popescu: i learned about many personal flaws and managed to correct some "in flatland", permanently. other flaws, still there |
| 11:49 |
nubbins` |
mircea_popescu: well sure, lots of diversions aren't particularly fun :D |
| 11:50 |
mircea_popescu |
herbijudlestoids lemme tell you a story. a freind of mine had a dumbass father. |
| 11:50 |
mircea_popescu |
one day that dumbass father destroyed the family car, by the process of pushing the gas all the way with the hand brake engaged. |
| 11:50 |
mircea_popescu |
over about half an hour. |
| 11:50 |
mircea_popescu |

Furthering on will you be hedging anything into BTC or all directly into USD as your company for you unfortunatetly missed the $120 -> 1000 price hike and could have already had a million dollar investment plan. |
| 18:23 |
the20year |
We've got quite a few BTC Hedging strategies, the msot up front one is the fact that we're only cashing out on a as-needed basis |
| 18:24 |
the20year |
We also had a $120>$65 price move when we started :D So unfortunately we're kind of used to it |
| 18:24 |
theo__ |
the20year: as the only thing that is stopping me as a investor looking to diversify into your company is the key fact that I believe the US could be on a potential melt down, and would mean that if you hedged to much into USD I am exposing myself to to much risk |
| 18:24 |
the20year |
Personally i'd like to save a little back to invest into some type of btc/only investment |
| 18:25 |
the20year |
Well, it would be tied to real estate, and in the past under hyperinflationary periods, real estate has typically done well (Yugoslovia/serbia, zimbabawe, Weimar Germany) , so I feel a little bit safe against that |
| 18:25 |
theo__ |
the20year: have you also taken into consideration the potential risk of if a housing collapse does happen again or a market collapse in america? as in your compaines Manifesto ( i know not the right word but i am tired) you did not mention this is a potential risk to investors |
| 18:25 |
the20year |
Additionally we're not overloaning properties, or going for absurdly low incomes, we could theoretically lower rents by 30% or more and still provide somewhat decent yields to invesors |

Well , during the 2001-2005 run up in prices, we increased maybe 30% |

From the 2006-2011 collapse we decreased by around 25% |

your risks are that if btc reaches 10k in a year or two you're left with 1/10 of what you'd have had if you held on to the btc, and if the guy splits with the cash you're left with whatever people buying into asset-based btc corps are usually left with |

Nearly impossible to intercept with another missile, try hitting a moving target that's incoming at mach 15 to mach 20 |

With visual instead of radar. Bullet spray. Very efficient considering the cost of bullets. Most expensive is probably the tracking systems. |

Remember during the faulklands, the UK ships had those and were able to intercept a total of 0 missiles |
| 19:08 |
mircea_popescu |
the missile is going about 10x as fast as your bullets. |
| 19:08 |
the20year |
eh , they're about the same |
| 19:08 |
BingoBoingo |
And bullets can only go so far up |
| 19:08 |
the20year |
they have a range of about 2mi |
| 19:08 |
mircea_popescu |
basically a steel mesh would be better than a bullet in this configuration. |
| 19:08 |
the20year |
They have those |
| 19:09 |

especially if the wind makes it vibrate. |

Mesh type missiles, that explode a large metal mesh |
| 19:09 |
Namworld |
It doesn't matter if you can shoot a volley where the incoming target will be. |

asciilifeform they keep knocking it, but ultra tensile meshes are better than all the crap they've built so far |
| 19:10 |
Namworld |
Why wouldn't you if you can visually track the incoming projectile? |
| 19:10 |
mircea_popescu |
you can't see that fast. |
| 19:10 |

on top of it all, the earth... is round. |

the 20 frames of a second cover a distance of about 3 miles say. |
| 19:11 |
KRS-One |
hypersonic is faster than radar too |
| 19:11 |
mircea_popescu |
depends on wavelength, but it IS probl;ematic for radar too yes |
| 19:11 |
KRS-One |
depending on angle i guess |
| 19:11 |
asciilifeform |
no one even tangentially involved with u.s. mil. work has any real doubt as to the actual purpose of 'missile defense' crap. |

i didn't think we did either. |
| 19:12 |
asciilifeform |
just in case. |
| 19:13 |
Namworld |
Yes, even at 3 miles per second. Is that such a problem with almost instant reaction? Enough to reach incoming target before it's close enough. It might be a bit too close for comfort I guess. |
| 19:13 |
mircea_popescu |
it's a problem in that you can't...actually...see it. |
| 19:13 |

most people who get punched out claim they never saw the fist. |

I was acquainted with someone who worked on an unclassifed project about as useful as missile defense. Essentialy the device was a hair drier large enough to accomodate a 747, because anthrax |

Namworld |
I never said a human would need to react to it. |
| 19:14 |
asciilifeform |
imagine you possess a death ray that magically zaps a rocket, from any distance. |
| |
↖ ↖ |
| 19:14 |
asciilifeform |
death ray must be physically aimed. |
| 19:14 |
asciilifeform |
so now you need a certain number of them, to cover however-many steradians sector of fire. |
| 19:15 |
asciilifeform |
a death ray can zap one rocket at a time. |
| 19:15 |

Or better yet a satellite system that has lasers built in to act as a defense over the earth creating a overlaying network of defense? |
| 19:15 |
asciilifeform |
all enemy needs to do is fire enough rockets simultaneously... |
| 19:15 |
mircea_popescu |
Namworld the human eye is much better than tech ersatzes. |
| 19:15 |
asciilifeform |
keep them coming until the death rays cannot keep up |
| 19:16 |
mircea_popescu |
asciilifeform the salmon strategy, by its scientific name. |
| 19:16 |
asciilifeform |
rocket is cheaper than any conceivable 'death ray' or other countermeasure. |
| 19:16 |
asciilifeform |
correct. |
| 19:16 |
Namworld |
The human eye can't see far and human reaction is far slower than tech ersatzes... |
| 19:16 |
BingoBoingo |
Well, nuclear weapons require less unobtanium than death rays |
| 19:16 |
mircea_popescu |
Namworld so you think, but once you factor in the various factors it's actually no longer the case. |
| 19:16 |

| 19:17 |
mircea_popescu |
KRS-One seeing how more people own a dozen rockets than a dozen laser sharks... |

Well we have defense system that are far more accurate and quicker to react than humans already... |

| 21:04 |
theo__ |
jurov: in your experience with this being the case would you invest into first there IPO's and 2ndly would you trust them with your BTC |
| 21:05 |
the20year2 |
And yet havelock is much more organized then BF was |
| 21:05 |
the20year2 |
they have alot of good stuff going for them |
| 21:05 |
jurov |
i don't have enough btc to divest in such way, after all |
| 21:05 |
theo__ |
What happened to BF? did they just up and run? or get hacked or something? |
| 21:05 |
jurov |
so i hevn't not look closer into rentalstarter |
| 21:06 |
jurov |
theo__: they "talked to lawyer" |
| 21:06 |
theo__ |
jurov: i meant in regards to havelock not Rentalstarter |
| 21:06 |
theo__ |
So they closed because they didn't think they had the legal grounds to stand on? |
| 21:07 |
jurov |
maybe. ukyo isn't disclosing anything concrete |
| 21:07 |
Duffer1 |
i believe btc-tc and bitfunder were likely shutdown by some manner of US federal gov intervention |
| 21:07 |
Duffer1 |
neither will talk about it |
| 21:08 |
jurov |
and what' worse, ukyo hasn't paid out 92% of btc, again due to undisclosed problems |
| 21:08 |
Duffer1 |
likely a funds seizure |
| 21:08 |
Duffer1 |
at best, fractional reserve loss at worst |

I honestly want to meet you guys, but wtf so high price? |
| 21:10 |
assbot |
[HAVELOCK] [CBTC] 1483 @ 0.00013418 = 0.199 BTC [+] |
| 21:11 |
b0n1 |
I am one of the early adopters as you all are, but 10 btc for a meeting? |
| 21:11 |
jurov |
b0n1: afaik you can come as non-vip, you'll pay everything yourself |
| 21:12 |
jurov |
and it isn't 10btc, but $1000 anyway (converted by current rate) |
| 21:12 |
assbot |
[HAVELOCK] [RENT] 22 @ 0.0055 = 0.121 BTC |
| 21:12 |
jurov |
oh and since it's buried in comments, especially if you book intercontinental flights, |
| 21:13 |
b0n1 |
I really dont know why the price... this just smells bad |
| 21:13 |
randomcloud |
Hey, is BingoBoingo here? |
| 21:13 |
jurov |
look into Budapest destination |
| 21:13 |
jurov |
instead of Timisoara |
| 21:13 |
b0n1 |
give me a good reason for the price? |
| 21:13 |
jurov |
me? ask mp |
| 21:14 |
b0n1 |
mircea_popescu` |
| 21:14 |
b0n1 |
? |
| 21:14 |
jurov |
yes |
| 21:14 |
b0n1 |
why such a high price? |
| 21:14 |
Duffer1 |
price is $1k, like 1.2 btc not 10, includes shuttle service, rooms at 4star hotel w/ breakfast, free drinks everywhere |
| 21:14 |
b0n1 |
what is this? 10 girls doing a lapdance for everybody taking part? |
| 21:15 |
assbot |
[HAVELOCK] [DEALCO] 40 @ 0.00448164 = 0.1793 BTC [+] {4} |
| 21:16 |
Duffer1 |
oh 1740$ since it's 2014 already >.< |
| 21:16 |
chipug |
you would end up paying more, breaking it all down and paying yourself |
| 21:17 |
chipug |
weren't they all clubbing in for the germany party too? |
| 21:17 |
b0n1 |
I know that meeting people is important... and I also know that meeting important people is more important... but what the fuck should I think about a 10btc meeting? Honestly, I dont understand it... |
| 21:18 |
Duffer1 |
b0n1 = jimmothy |
| 21:18 |
jurov |
just register as non-vip, the hotel rooms and meals are not very expensive |
| 21:18 |
Duffer1 |
it's not 10btc |
| 21:18 |
b0n1 |
how much? |
| 21:18 |
jurov |
i'm trying to exaplin it's in usd, too, but b0ni is already freaed out |
| 21:18 |
Duffer1 |
1740$ usd |
| 21:20 |
jurov |
^ yes, paid in btc by current market rate |
| 21:21 |
chipug |
b0n1: it's not like that's the price of doing it yourself. that's the price of a nice package with it |
| 21:21 |
mod6 |
b0n1: its 10 BTC to get on the VIP list. you should read the article again. |
| 21:22 |
jurov |
and there are hostels in timisoara. i was in one after missing my train, was nice, can't complain |
| 21:23 |
b0n1 |
If I read the article there are 2 options: |
| 21:23 |
b0n1 |
1. I dont go |
| 21:23 |
b0n1 |
2. I go as VIP |
| 21:23 |
jurov |
3. register |
| 21:23 |
jurov |
4. show up |
| 21:23 |
mod6 |
oh, maybe Im wrong actually. i read it like a year ago. |
| 21:24 |
jurov |
mod6 stfu |
| 21:24 |
jurov |
I paid only 5 because the rate went up |
| 21:24 |
mod6 |
lol |
| 21:25 |
jurov |
you're causing unnecessary outrage :D |
| 21:25 |
b0n1 |
I really cant believe davout paid 10 btc to go there... |
| 21:25 |
jurov |
who knew |
| 21:25 |

so what? 2 years ago that was like $0.10 |

<Duffer1> i believe btc-tc and bitfunder were likely shutdown by some manner of US federal gov intervention << people believed the same of glbse. |
| 21:28 |
Duffer1 |
am i wrong? |
| 21:28 |
mircea_popescu |
<b0n1> I am one of the early adopters as you all are, but 10 btc for a meeting? << what have you done ? |
| 21:29 |
mircea_popescu |
Duffer1 yes, you are wrong. for instance when the govt closed down the sr, you knew this because... they said so. |
| 21:30 |
assbot |
[HAVELOCK] [B.SELL] 1 @ 0.127 BTC [+] |
| 21:30 |
Duffer1 |
if not govt intervention why would btc-tc shutdown? |
| 21:31 |
mircea_popescu |
because every person involved was an imbecile ? |
| 21:31 |
assbot |
[HAVELOCK] [B.EXCH] 1 @ 0.19376446 BTC [+] |
| 21:32 |
Duffer1 |
well sure, but that doesn't adequately explain why they'd shutdown at their most profitable |
| 21:33 |
mircea_popescu |
... |
| 21:33 |
mircea_popescu |
really ? |
| 21:33 |
Duffer1 |
what am i missing? |
| 21:34 |
mircea_popescu |
i can't begin to guess. what do you mean it doesn't adequately explain ? idiocy is adequate explanation for ANY behaviour |
| 21:34 |
mircea_popescu |
that's pretty much its only redeeming quality. |
| 21:35 |
Duffer1 |
that's a degree of idiocy i'm not willing to assign burnside lol |
| 21:36 |
mircea_popescu |
which is the entire thing that powers conspiracism. easier to believe glbse was shut down by aliens than the gaping psychologic chasm of an alternative |
| 21:36 |
Duffer1 |
my lemonade stand is making more money than ever, i think i'll shut it down |
| 21:36 |
mircea_popescu |
how do you know how much money it was making in the first place ? |
| 21:36 |
theo__ |
Whats with the Cbtc having such huge buy orders? https://www.havelockinvestments.com/order.php?symbol=CBTC most other shares don't have anywhere near that amount. Anyone provide some guidance at all? |
| 21:36 |

| 21:38 |
Duffer1 |
actm/labcoin trading was a huge increase in trade volume, i'm assuming that would translate into increase revenues, but there is the idiocy factor |
| 21:38 |
mircea_popescu |
Duffer1 labcoin was a scam, in which burnside participated, by faking volumes. |
| 21:38 |
mircea_popescu |
they didn't manage to actually make money on it. |
| 21:38 |
mircea_popescu |
which is why all teh butthurt. |
| 21:39 |
Duffer1 |
i've heard that accusation, i haven't seen support for it |
| 21:39 |
mircea_popescu |
fascinating. |
| 21:40 |
Duffer1 |
i wasn't around for the labcoin ipo |
| 21:40 |
mircea_popescu |
so closing down the "profitable" thing in the middle of its profit is unexplainable, and the govt did it ? |
| 21:40 |
Duffer1 |
i don't know what happened there |
| 21:40 |
chipug |
mircea_popescu: how many you having at your conference? |
| 21:40 |
b0n1 |
mircea_popescu do I have to tell you? |
| 21:40 |
mircea_popescu |
chipug not that many. |
| 21:41 |
Duffer1 |
just a hypothesis that could explain both btc-tc and bitfunder closures |
| 21:41 |
Duffer1 |
idiocy and coincidence are certainly options as well |
| 21:41 |
mircea_popescu |
b0n1 you don't have to anything. you've made a claim as to having been an old timer. if you want that taken seriously you'll have to offer some corroboration. |
| 21:41 |
ThickAsThieves |
i wanted to go, but personal life does not allow |
| 21:41 |
chipug |
a gathering as opposed to a party then lol exciting all the same |
| 21:42 |
chipug |
are they still doing the 1k party? or has that passed even |
| 21:42 |
mircea_popescu |
chipug teh list is more or less on the bottom of the post there. but yah, i dun believe in these conference things like they do. |
| 21:43 |
chipug |
a lot of people still like to nod 'n' hand shake in person mircea_popescu |
| 21:43 |
mircea_popescu |
indeed. |
| 21:44 |
mircea_popescu |
Duffer1 wait, bitfunder was closed by the government too ? |
| 21:44 |
mircea_popescu |
dude god forbid the government goes away, what will we do without it ;/ |
| 21:44 |
Duffer1 |
lol i never said that, i said i believe it likely |
| 21:44 |
Duffer1 |
or more likely than idiocy + coincidence |
| 21:44 |
mircea_popescu |
oh motherfucker, government just elbowed my glass of milk over |
| 21:44 |
mircea_popescu |
now there's milk all over the floor |
| 21:44 |
mircea_popescu |
fucking government. |
| 21:44 |
ThickAsThieves |
i was gonna get high but then i had to close down because of the government |
| 21:45 |
b0n1 |
mircea_popescu I dont want to talk about it in public... I think you should at least have a small piece of understanding of this being part of the early community |
| 21:45 |
mircea_popescu |
i have exactly no understanding for it, being not only part of the early community but quite open about things. |
| 21:46 |
b0n1 |
why? |
| 21:46 |
mircea_popescu |
because it's ridiculous ? |
| 21:47 |

so what do you think of "alms" for satoshis |
| 23:28 |
BingoBoingo |
asciilifeform: Last I checked nethash on alt roughly on par with December 2012 Bitcoin |
| 23:28 |
ThickAsThieves |
In Buddhism, alms or almsgiving is the respect given by a lay Buddhist to a Buddhist monk, nun, spiritually-developed person or other sentient being. It is not charity as presumed by Western interpreters. It is closer to a symbolic connection to the spiritual realm and to show humbleness and respect in the presence of the secular society. |
| 23:28 |
punkman1 |
ThickAsThieves: should call your satoshis "litecoins" |
| 23:28 |
asciilifeform |
BingoBoingo: a tad bit late for the js miner then. |
| 23:28 |
chipug |
ThickAsThieves: i prefer this to the other name.. i think it's nicer when there's a meaning behind names for things. |

was it alters or something |

alter = change = fractions of an altcoin |

it means change LITERALLY |

if so, was it explained what it meant? Some peeps in another channel are confused and just trying to determine if i should go back track through my logs rather than repeat the same thing over and over again |

BingoBoingo, punkman1 is this based on the Bitcointalk thread or actual confirmation from mircea_popescu? |
| 23:57 |
punkman1 |
duduqa: no big deal, just keep your GPG keys private |
| 23:57 |
Perlboy |
cause there's conjecture as to whether the bitcointalk thread actually understands correctly |
| 23:59 |
punkman1 |
Perlboy: might be a good exercise to do the math yourself |
