06:25 mircea_popescu "The Bitcoin community is not just overwhelmingly larger but of overwhelmingly better quality as well.

06:28 mircea_popescu Thus, the altcoin communities are not just embarrassing, but dangerous.

06:46 mircea_popescu Nu exista in principiu o diferenta de tratament ideal < tratament ideal is, "ideal treatment", in the sense of normative, prescriptive treatment.
06:46 BingoBoingo Ah
06:47 mircea_popescu "nu exista in principiu" means there doesnt exist (nu exista) for absolute reasons (in principiu, roughly, following from principle, for reasons derived from prime principles)
06:47 mircea_popescu so, "the ideal treatment of one does not differ from the other for reasons that are derived from prime principles".
06:48 mircea_popescu the point being that while you're welcome to disagree in practice, your doing so is arbitrariety not reason.

11:33 thestringpuller is it best to throw it away
11:33 thestringpuller or would their be a way to recycle the components in some kinda "liquidation event"?

11:34 thestringpuller I was just wondering because I used to do IT for a company that would buy large amounts of old CPU's, and sell them to recyclers who would extract precious metals from them.

13:58 Kamuela thank you kakobrekla
13:58 kakobrekla what is the project about?
14:00 Kamuela briefly, a bitcoin work market a la odesk. development team ready
14:02 kakobrekla and you need capital for ?
14:03 Kamuela kakobrekla: MVP development
14:05 kakobrekla who are you/your team?
14:05 Kamuela I'm in talks with differential to do it in the meteor framework
14:06 Kamuela http://differential.io
14:06 assbot Differential | We Build Big Ideas
14:06 Kamuela lol
14:06 kakobrekla so you wanna be the ceo and pay someone to code something up?
14:07 kakobrekla but to pay you need get capital.
14:07 kakobrekla am i missing something?
14:07 Kamuela i could attempt to develop it myself, but my skills there are really crap. i have designs and nearing full use cases for the MVP
14:08 Kamuela yes, you've got it
14:08 thestringpuller so you come to us #b-a this the day of our daughter's wedding
14:09 Kamuela i'd like to keep it within bitcoin's community and equity based because everything else is a crock of sh** honestly. it's not fair to give people merchandise and coupons for something that's going to generate revenue
14:09 kakobrekla ok so who are you and what makes you think you are theoretically capable of running such a thing?
14:10 Kamuela and for it to be truly competitive to something like odesk, it will need to be flexible enough to establish itself in an overseas jurisdiction only when completely necessary. meaning dealing in USD first and setting up a bank account makes it legally complex from the getgo
14:11 Kamuela someone who shares the interests of many for a Bitcoin work market, a go-to for both supplemental and potentially off-grid lifestyles
14:12 Kamuela why am i the one? because i'm committed to keeping it useful for people as far as it can be taken. i'm not looking to grow and sell out. my interests are aligned with keeping it one of the most decentralized ways to act in the BTC economy
14:12 kakobrekla how is it decentralized?
14:13 Kamuela initially it isn't, it's a single-server application. but ultimately i will seek to develop many methods of access via alternate and distributed networks
14:14 Kamuela the technology isn't decentralized first, but the idea that anyone can offer services and receive Bitcoin as compensation is the most decentralized of all exchanges, imo
14:14 Kamuela you're always subject to a bank at a cash exchange
14:15 Kamuela you also need to solve the problem of "what is Bitcoin useful for"

14:15 abathingape kekeke
14:16 Kamuela speculating? that's it? one of the biggest uses of currency is in transaction and the building of capital. we have some stock markets and that's great and will continue to grow along with 2.0 uses, but as a currency it needs to facilitate real trade
14:17 Kamuela the superniche initial target market are just Bitcoin supporters and enthusiasts, but ultimately it can compete with something like odesk by undercutting its fees especially as in many places getting into Bitcoin is getting ridiculously easy, meaning obtaining it
14:17 Kamuela getting out is a bit harder, but something the initial contractors will shoulder voluntarily
14:18 kakobrekla still dont know who you are.

16:30 Kamuela and a better question would be: why would I be crowdfunding if i didn't see marginal success somewhere else? it's usually cheaper to get funding within your own circle
16:31 Kamuela far from being combative, i'm looking to understand where you're coming from
16:31 Kamuela it must be that every member of ethereum has a long history of proven success right?
16:32 Kamuela many less tangible projects have gotten ridiculous levels of funding, and i am DOING the legwork to make this happen. so when you ask what qualifies me, well, it's because i'm the guy DOING something

16:38 Kamuela punkman: lmao, i don't exactly follow
16:38 Kamuela certainly as a competitor to existing odesk businesses, the project will shape itself around the interests of its customers. but what initially or conceptually is wrong with the odesk style?
16:39 punkman everything
16:39 Kamuela for example, it seems so far from my interviews that something people really like is the guaranteed payment... something that this project would NOT be offering for at least a while. it certainly would not be part of the MVP
16:40 Kamuela of course that's a bit of laziness on the part of vetting your customer, but i understand that what i call laziness other people call serving needs, which I completely respect the need to do
16:44 ThickAsThieves people always enjoy promises that cant be kept
16:45 TomServo Pff. Schneier says "Matthew Green has a good post on what's wrong with PGP and what should be done about it." (with link of course)
16:46 TomServo First comment: Did you have to fight the urge to call it a "pretty good post"?
16:47 punkman ThickAsThieves: it'd be nice if there was someone playing matchmaker, vetting both sides, guaranteeing whatever he can afford to
16:47 punkman don't even need a website
16:47 ThickAsThieves well agents arent cheap
16:47 ThickAsThieves nor sclable
16:47 punkman odesk takes 10%
16:47 ThickAsThieves scalable
16:47 Kamuela and offers no escrow
16:47 punkman don't need to scale
16:48 Kamuela and addresses an $80 mil market
16:48 ThickAsThieves surely bigger than $80m no?
16:48 Kamuela with inferior financial technology
16:49 ThickAsThieves "Cops found this wanted Nebraska man after he posted his Ice Bucket Challenge on Facebook."
16:50 Kamuela the first couple thousand users on a Bitcoin-powered odesk are going to be BTC enthusiasts and folks looking to play around, meaning a release valve for pent-up demand for use of coins, and of course a dedicated following of people who want to try to make supplemental or full-time income doing btc freelance work
16:50 Kamuela but after that there's a real competitive advantage to 10% and a couple days turn around time and <10% and 1 hour turnaround
16:51 Kamuela especially when you factor in the fact that a bunch of the initial contractors are going to underprice in an attempt to gain customers, there's a real value proposition to a competing network
16:51 Kamuela and odesk "just accepting Bitcoin" is a bigger deal with any real thought
16:52 Kamuela meaning there's a whole lot of inertia to fight to make that happen
16:52 Kamuela and how are they going to address a cheaper and lower-hassle competitor even with Bitcoin? will they openly say jobs paid in bitcoin are discounted? i don't think they could do that
16:53 Kamuela ThickAsThieves: I don't know about the actual total market, but just odesk takes in $80mm
16:55 ThickAsThieves isnt someone already working on this?
16:55 ThickAsThieves Hearn, Popescu, etc
16:55 punkman there's a few dozens of them
16:55 punkman Kamuela, I think your plan is to make it prettier and with more javascripts?
16:57 Kamuela there's a real potential to help me out in one way or another, but isn't it boring to make words and contribute nothing?
16:58 punkman you can help yourself by reading teh logs
16:58 Kamuela i don't mind the real questions, kakobrekla addressed a serious point of "who are you?" that's a real question that has to be answered

17:09 nubbins` TheNewDeal yeah. buy with a friend to save on shipping ;D
17:09 mircea_popescu half the value of b-a is taking the entire layer of would-be ceos out of business completely, as there's nothing really they can usefully contribute.
17:10 TheNewDeal nubbins what would it be for 2+shipping?

17:12 TheNewDeal no frameage?

17:16 Kamuela mircea_popescu: you seriously just said that?
17:17 mircea_popescu Kamuela yes.
17:17 Kamuela if you're working with them directly, doesn't that make you CEO?
17:17 Kamuela have you contributed nothing useful?
17:17 Kamuela all you just said was "hey same concept, but let me start it"
17:17 mircea_popescu only in a very distant sort of manner. not in the traditional sense the term is used.
17:17 TheNewDeal I thought he was the funding
17:17 mircea_popescu Kamuela no, it wasn't "let me start it". it was "let the coder start it, and run it"
17:18 Kamuela mircea_popescu: the coder doesn't want to do that. the coder wants to run a development shop
17:18 mircea_popescu if i wanted to "start it" i'd have started it in 2012. but i don't, because i can't nor should i do everything.
17:18 Kamuela are you anti-capitalist? seems like you're running counter to specialization and trade
17:18 mircea_popescu well then fuck him, he can go die in a fire.

17:18 Kamuela you're asking for a CEO
17:19 Kamuela you just want it to be the build crew as well
17:19 mircea_popescu im running counter to some very particular, bad implementations of capitalism.
17:19 mircea_popescu this being a recurring discussion these days it seems.
17:19 Kamuela are you the type who thinks that
17:19 Kamuela Apple would have been a better company without steve jobs
17:19 Kamuela that he contributed nothing
17:19 mircea_popescu but anyway : specialisation is not a good thing just for the mere fact that it's specialisation.
17:19 mircea_popescu jobs was not the ceo in the sense you use the term.
17:20 Kamuela CEO's contribute vision, investor and customer relations, executive decisions, accountability, etc. could all of these things be "in-sourced," sure, and they are in a lot of cases
17:20 punkman "Specialization is for insects"
17:20 Kamuela punkman: Heinlein
17:20 mircea_popescu Kamuela you know you're just calling it "vision" to avoid saying "ceo is the guy who wants money for nothing and thinks this wil wash"
17:20 mircea_popescu there's no value in "ideas" and rebranding them as "vision" won't wash.
17:21 mircea_popescu money comes through work.
17:21 Kamuela who says i'm asking for money?
17:21 Kamuela i'm asking for capital
17:21 mircea_popescu asking is not the problem.
17:21 Kamuela i don't make money on a crowdfund, this is completely development and marketing runway
17:22 mircea_popescu what i'm trying to impart to you is that this "take capital from idiots of type A and labour from idiots of type B" that silicon valley was built upon is dead in the water.
17:22 mircea_popescu i
17:22 mircea_popescu i
17:22 mircea_popescu damn.
17:22 TheNewDeal but MP, don't you remember the cyperpunks thought up PGP before it was implemented?!?!
17:22 mircea_popescu i'll support the idiots of type b directly tyvm
17:22 TheNewDeal they had the power to think, and not do
17:22 mircea_popescu and that means the only way you'll be able to give them a worse deal is for as long as this elephant in the room stays secret.
17:22 mircea_popescu TheNewDeal right right.
17:22 nubbins` TheNewDeal: about a week-ish to ship
17:23 Kamuela the thing is, if it were easy for builders and maintainers to be owners and operators, it'd be the rule instead of the exception
17:23 Kamuela there isn't some mass scheme of exploitation going on
17:23 Kamuela it's a rational choice between employment and entrepreneurship
17:23 mircea_popescu it only isn't the rule because up until now there didn't exist this chan, and this ideology.
17:23 mircea_popescu it will be the rule within your lifetime toh.
17:23 assbot [MPEX] [S.MPOE] 22500 @ 0.00064572 = 14.5287 BTC [+]
17:25 Kamuela so what will happen in my lifetime, you're saying, is that the profit motive will go away, all marginal cost will go to marginal benefit, and unicorns will come back from extinction
17:25 mircea_popescu Kamuela no. i say that within your lifetime, you'll starve with this model of trying to ceo that i perceive you're trying to impl;ement
17:25 Kamuela even if we are all managed by artificial intelligence, that artificial intelligence is still the capitalist
17:25 mircea_popescu much like you'd have starved cca 1920 trying to be a buggy manufacturer.
17:27 Kamuela something for nothing is what drives the world. it's what causes both its prosperity and its problems
17:27 mircea_popescu Kamuela approach it from another angle, perhaps it's more digestible that way. suppose the worker's work was no good. you know this because the code doesn't compile. suppose the capital's no good. you know this because the check bounces.
17:27 mircea_popescu now suppose your "vision" is no good.
17:27 Kamuela i understand trying to eliminate that, but i think that will be done through solving information asymmetry rather than through eliminating... ideas?
17:28 mircea_popescu you can'rt ever know this, can you ? that means you're not part of the pie, not adding value.
17:28 mircea_popescu not eliminating ideas, but the brand of "ideas", or whatever it reforms as. this concept that one's personally important for no reason whatsoever.
17:28 mircea_popescu "i thought of it first!!11" or w/e.
17:29 Kamuela so... because i want to organize a bunch of people who don't know each other, because i interview potential customers, because i will continue to direct operations of both the MVP and later pivots, I am contributing "nothing?"
17:29 mircea_popescu none of this is to say you personally are a bad guy or anything.
17:29 Kamuela You're getting arbitrary and it's almost disrespectful
17:29 Kamuela you act like i'm just trying to take something to a patent office
17:29 mircea_popescu !up Kamuela
17:30 Kamuela i acknowledge i didn't think of it first
17:30 Kamuela and i'm not trying to cash in on that
17:30 mircea_popescu don't get all bristly lol. anyway : there's tools to organize all that, use 'em.
17:30 Kamuela well let's put it this way
17:30 Kamuela i'm a manager
17:30 mircea_popescu irl you mean ?
17:30 jborkl good afternoon
17:31 Kamuela in this project, and that's not some kind of a euphemism
17:31 Kamuela i have to manage the programming team every day
17:31 mircea_popescu you ever been a manager irl ?
17:31 mircea_popescu ello jborkl
17:31 Kamuela for brief positions of over 1700 employees actually yes
17:31 mircea_popescu okay. so you know what an office manger is. sorta like a glorified receptionist, hires the cleanning crew, takes a weekly salary.
17:32 Kamuela you're looking at me and saying that my skill in knowing how to accomplish EVERYTHING involved but simply not DOING everything involved is meaningless
17:32 mircea_popescu pretty much, yeah.
17:32 mircea_popescu i also know how the plumber should fix the pipes.
17:32 Kamuela so do it yourself
17:32 mircea_popescu i guess i could be the plumber's manager for as long as i stfu and don't go much in the way.
17:32 Kamuela or you live a meaningless life
17:32 Kamuela according to your own logic
17:33 mircea_popescu as far as plumbing is concerned, i'm a negligible entity.
17:33 jurov Kamuela, 90% of freelancer is web scraping and php plodding stuff. You can't combine this model with bitcoin economy, it needs something fundamentally else at this stage.
17:33 Kamuela so if a task requires more than yourself, are you actually saying that hiring someone is being some kind of lazy ass
17:33 jborkl yeah, or you are just me
17:33 mircea_popescu Kamuela no, but you're welcome to that strawman if you wish.
17:33 Kamuela mircea_popescu: how is that a strawman?
17:33 Kamuela i have preplanned the MVP
17:34 Kamuela i have design work done
17:34 Kamuela and yet having the build done by a team that's better and uses time more effectively than i can
17:34 mircea_popescu you have design done pre-product ?
17:34 Kamuela is suddenly wrong in one person's eyes
17:34 mircea_popescu this is like having painted the wall of the unbuilt house innit ?
17:34 Kamuela no, this is like ensuring a house doesn't fall down by having blueprints drawn up before you put the pieces together
17:34 Kamuela sorry, a 0-value activity
17:34 Kamuela lol
17:35 mircea_popescu o you don't mean what is normally meant by design online, ie, drawing up mockups of webpages. do you ?
17:35 Kamuela you're just a little bit of a marxist... that's cool... i mean, i don't prefer it, but you are welcome to your own opinion
17:35 mircea_popescu you designed, as in, software architecture. db models and whatnot. tho you don't code ?
17:35 X-Rob mircea_popescu: I think it's fair, looking at the outage, if you just make it 0.2 rather than 0.22 for this week.
17:35 Kamuela who told you i didn't code?
17:36 mircea_popescu X-Rob im not going to bother with a coupla cents, just make sure the thing stays online.
17:36 mircea_popescu Kamuela im just sorta following along. do you ?
17:37 Kamuela well another way I'm contributing, I suppose, is moving resources to their highest valued use
17:37 mircea_popescu how would you know ?
17:37 Kamuela and mine may not be foregoing seeking a project's funding by getting into a pseudo-intellectual marxist debate
17:37 mircea_popescu myeah. point in case i guess.

17:38 mircea_popescu o you have GOT to be kidding me.
17:38 Kamuela look, doing for the sake of doing. just expressing. building. being steve wozniak. it's beautiful and i completely agree with you
17:38 mircea_popescu nah, this convo is over, srsly.
17:38 jurov what's pseudointellectual in asking you to show the world the MVP before asking anyone anything?
17:38 Kamuela you accuse me of strawman, and what did you just do?
17:39 Kamuela bring up a character assessment based on your perception
17:39 Kamuela at least hold yourself to the same standard
17:39 mircea_popescu mkay.
17:39 mircea_popescu Past : simpleminded psychotic. Currently, cult leader.
17:40 Kamuela i apologize for not knowing all the terms, but you are committing the fallacy known as "name-calling"
17:40 Kamuela may be ad hominem, not sure
17:41 Kamuela though i suppose no one agreed this was a debate. you're just talking
17:41 Kamuela contributing, i suppose. although not by your own measure. but by mine for sure
17:41 jborkl mircea- some interesting stats top 10 visits us,ca,hk,nl,au,by,gb,fr,de,ru,cn
17:42 Kamuela you're making me realize, for example, that the road to finish this is an uphill one
17:42 BingoBoingo <Kamuela> may be ad hominem, not sure << Every label sounds like an ad hominem unless you have read and digested the historical context.

17:49 jborkl yes, I got something wrong there

17:54 pete_dushenski "Korean bitcoin exchange Korbit has raised $3 million in Series A funding led by SoftBank Ventures Korea and Pantera Capital, with participation from BAM Ventures, and returning investors Bitcoin Opportunity Corp., Tim Draper, Pietro Dova, and Strong Ventures."
17:55 mircea_popescu they're fucking quotes. the point here being that i comfortably define myself in the terms of the would-be insults various folk tried to tack on over the years. the years of me being and their coming and going. whereas you're stuck aspirationally trying to add labels to yourself. it's a fundamental difference at work.
17:55 mircea_popescu jborkl i think everyone gets more traffic from yandex than bing.
17:55 Kamuela well, I mean you attacked my philosophies, ideas, accomplishments, and character in about 20 nonstop minutes, man. i'm sorry i didn't pass another test of yours by remaining fully collected...
17:55 mircea_popescu you're doing ok.

21:09 asciilifeform see also feynman's 'lectures on physics' vol. 1, sect. 6-3.
21:10 asciilifeform (unrelated) gold and silver also stored in the IC << they get the Au out - chemically. in just the same way miners do. melting point of Si never plays into it.
21:11 mircea_popescu "He was so sad. You know what Winchell was doing at the end? Typing out mimeographed sheets with his column, handing them out on the corner. That's how sad he got. When he died, only one person came to his funeral: his daughter."
21:11 mircea_popescu ahahah pretty good.
21:11 mircea_popescu hey all ye michael moore wannabes out there ? see winchell. he was the original libtard.
21:12 asciilifeform mircea_popescu: i thought sinclair lewis was the original
21:12 mircea_popescu hard to beat a dude pushing a telex key randomly to "impart a sense of urgency"

21:16 mircea_popescu i was being a doctor at that age.
21:16 asciilifeform lol
21:16 ben_vulpes i was hustling my classmates
21:16 ben_vulpes and siblings
21:16 ben_vulpes and parents for that matter

21:17 asciilifeform lol rng

21:17 mircea_popescu asciilifeform fun factoid : one of s. lewis' stories (bongo) was stolen & rewritten by a romanian author a decade later
21:18 mircea_popescu you should see this thing. i mean, there's this vast tradition in romanian of making incredibly sad and outrageously depressing stories the only fare kids are allowed up until about puberty
21:18 mircea_popescu but this probably takes the cake.
21:18 asciilifeform mircea_popescu: (you probably knew) soviet 'fanfic' of devil knows how many famous works - e.g., 'wizard of oz', 'pinnockio', - was hyper-bestselling
21:18 asciilifeform to the point that virtually no russian-speaking folks ever read the originals
21:18 asciilifeform or even know they existed
21:19 mircea_popescu yeah. well romanians never went that far.

21:24 * asciilifeform when read the original finally, and saw the famous film, thought it was a cruel mockery of the Real Thing
21:25 mircea_popescu "it's not stealing if you make it better"
21:25 asciilifeform vol. 1 was mostly a barbaric rip
21:25 mircea_popescu oldest defense to copyright infringement, seems to me perfectly valid.
21:25 asciilifeform but from that point, it's almost a 'real' sf trilogy
21:25 asciilifeform complete with aliens, death rays.
21:26 asciilifeform the russian 'pinnockio' - 'буратино' - is an almost totally different thing. a kind of parable about chumpatronics (esp. in the animated musical rendition)

21:53 mircea_popescu and went.
21:54 BingoBoingo mircea_popescu: I dunno yet. Maybe it's an abuse of Kant taking the imposition of time upon the manifold by intuiting and assuming that gives them... power?
21:54 mircea_popescu either that or a wishful extension of the school environment. you know, "when the time for the exam comes". by definition that will be later.
