18:01 HeySteve hello
18:06 BingoBoingo hey
18:11 mircea_popescu mike_c see, the way i've observed this to work is like this : 1) usg makes imbecile law ; 2) society is aghast ; 3) teenaged muppets make bold claim that jives with societal expectation, blatantly in contradiction with usg policy.
18:12 mircea_popescu then 4a) if society bites the bait, they "change their mind" "learn better" "unfortunately..." "they were just kids" etc, the circle / dwolla /etc playbook
18:12 mircea_popescu or else 4b) if society doesn't bite the bait, they "street cred" because were going to 4evar totally do it.
18:13 mircea_popescu seems a decent gameplan. if you're a stanford/harvard business major, or similar scum.
18:21 mike_c i'd love to be a fly on the wall in the pitch meetings though when the investor says "so how are you not going to jail?"
18:21 mike_c because in the game you described, the VCs are getting taken for a ride. which happens of course, but this just seems so obviously illegal.

19:12 scoopbot New post on Qntra.net by thestringpuller: http://qntra.net/2015/03/digital-hawala-for-the-poor/
19:13 mircea_popescu anyway, "society" is broad. the vc game is just to flip the ponzi to larger fools. they succeed 55% of the time or so.
19:13 mircea_popescu otherwise, the pension funds end up hodling anyway, and the fed rescues them, and here we are.
19:14 saifedean my working theory is that any "entrepreneur" who engages in any form of 'event' about start-ups or entrepreneurship is not an entrepreneur, and has nothing interesting to offer the world. if they did have something interesting, they wouldn't have time for wankery
19:14 thestringpuller ;;later tell pete_dushenski you're referenced in latest qntra article
19:14 gribble The operation succeeded.
19:15 thestringpuller mircea_popescu: that sounds like a great video game premise for learning purposes. "Flip the ponzi"
19:16 mircea_popescu saifedean this is the prevailing view by now imo
19:18 mircea_popescu anyway, re the "questions asked" : in a total nod to asciilifeform's "merit washing" ideas, by now the point isn't even to have any sort of product, as it hasn't been for decades, noreven any sort of plan. they "invest" in "great teams", nao. "kids will figure it out later".
19:18 saifedean there is such a giant start-up culture in lebanon these days thanks to Central Bank bezzle, everyone and their dog wants to make a start-up... nobody wants to actually do something, just pontificate on start-ups and entrepreneurship
19:19 saifedean the central bank here is probably the world's best, the currency has the highest gold cover of any currency in the world, they banned the banks from investing in any securities and compeltely avoided the 2008 meltdown...
19:19 saifedean but...
19:19 mircea_popescu what will the kids figure out later ? oh, that - to go no further than latest trilema - jared son of charles got 40mn "investment" from x and y while charles was in jale because campaign donations and other issues related to x and y.
19:19 mircea_popescu "entrepreneur".
19:20 mircea_popescu saifedean lebanon sounds more and more like romania - 10 years.
19:20 saifedean the socialistards have been pressing for start-up funding and environmental projects, and the CB has obliged with some low-interest loans and funding conferences and start-ups and publicity... what could possibly go wrong
19:21 mircea_popescu in lebanon ? nothing really, srsly nao. buncha town dwelling wasters get ot be all excited for a summer.
19:21 mircea_popescu this exact thing was a problem, written down as such, exact words, in 1914. and since forever : central government attracts town loafers, who then derp about.
19:22 saifedean oh no, there's a lot of ruin to be made in this place, and the socialist scum have been trying in vain for decades...

19:23 mircea_popescu tell me specifics ?
19:23 saifedean before civil war in 1975, currency was 91% backed by gold, almost a gold standard
19:24 mircea_popescu how can it be 91% backed ?
19:24 saifedean the entire civil war drama was basically communist-funded trash trying to destroy the central bank and currency

19:25 mircea_popescu saifedean o.O
19:25 mircea_popescu that's pretty heavy.
19:25 mircea_popescu is this factual or declaratory ?
19:25 saifedean the fact that this place has almost-hard money makes a real difference: there is no bezzle here, there has never been a stock market crash, housing crash, or any kind of business cycle
19:26 saifedean people don't really have shitty bezzle careers, they have actual productive jobs making useful things... like furniture and food

19:27 assbot dpaste: 1FPT1XY ... ( http://bit.ly/18woNDU )
19:27 mircea_popescu saifedean impressive.
19:28 mircea_popescu lebanon, eh ? who knew.
19:28 saifedean it was 91% before the war, then the socialist scum managed to fuck shit up in the war, and destroyed the currency in 1983, it went from 3 Liras/USD to around 2,000Lira/USD
19:29 saifedean but then when the rubble settled down, the central bank set the currency at 1500 Lira/USD in 1992 and it has not budged since
19:29 saifedean the reason is that they still have sizeable gold reserves, unlike the rest of the world's troglodyte central bankers chasing returns and playing etrade accounts with their reserves
19:30 mircea_popescu so if i want to rent a flat in beirut, what'd it run me ?
19:30 ben_vulpes lebanon?!
19:31 saifedean for something really nice... $2000-$4000
19:31 saifedean and by nice, i mean nicer than pretty much anything you've seen
19:31 saifedean views on the mediterranean and the snow-covered mountains... 24 hour delivery services to get you anything you could possibly imagine
19:32 saifedean very safe and secure, friendly and outgoing happy people
19:32 mircea_popescu yeah, but they have to compete with ohio's 150 a month or w/e it was.
19:32 saifedean and some of the world's best food, women, and wine...
19:33 mircea_popescu yeah except if syria falls over it'll flatten it.
19:34 saifedean im not even lebanese, i went to university here, then lived in london and new york... the move from beirut to these anglo shit-holes was a culture shock, there is no comparison... as soon as i finished my phd and got an offer from a lebanese university, i didnt hesitate move back
19:34 saifedean yeah, the fear of the country falling over is what keeps it so wonderfully beautiful, as it keeps out all the unwanted visitors :D
19:35 mircea_popescu lol
19:35 saifedean it'd be swimming with british stag dos and russian billionaires otherwise
19:35 punkman maybe good time to invest in sailboat
19:35 mircea_popescu no but seriously, there's what, half a million muslims refugeed there now ?
19:35 mircea_popescu suppose that goes to 2mn, or 5.
19:35 mircea_popescu o look, most recent political assasination fifteen months ago.
19:36 saifedean this place went through 15 years of civil war though, everyone has had their fill, and nobody wants a repeat, and people are far, far, more careful than in other places... people hjave just learned to ignore all the drama and live their life... all the "violence" and "insecurity" after all, does not amount to half of a chicago

19:37 saifedean there's tons of refugees from syria, but they mostly come here and work, there's no welfare state to speak of so immigration is not really a problem
19:37 mircea_popescu saifedean from where i sit the only sane reason to go to lebanon would be the same as 1k years ago : to start a crusade.

19:42 saifedean yeah, the debt is enormous, and the CB keeps the government on a tight leash with it... banks are all well-capitalized and keep rolling over the debt for the government... but the government can never go crazy and do 5-year-plans or giant infrastructure projects or whatever

19:43 mircea_popescu we will once you're done playing with these ones.
19:43 saifedean i lived in DC for a summer and interacted with the residents... my theory is that DC has collected every single shitty asshole/teacher-pet/snitch/scummy loser from every single high school in the world to go live there... no matter where you were in the world, if you were a terrible piece of shit in high school, you found a way to get to DC by age 30
19:44 mircea_popescu saifedean california worked that way previously.
19:44 mircea_popescu but then they started cutting up the hitchhikers
19:44 saifedean the lawyers are the best people in DC, and that says a lot
19:44 asciilifeform saifedean: i actually went to a special school where they manufactured these!
19:45 mircea_popescu lol
19:45 mircea_popescu saifedean incidentally, being a snitch is a legal obligaiton for usians now.

19:46 mircea_popescu i dunno... the "i'm not a snitch" thing floats to the point of "what is an american' in my head.
19:46 asciilifeform distinct from the official letter of the law
19:47 saifedean i don't really understand how anyone could want to live in the US in this day and age... anybody who chooses to go live there is essentially an other-determined dweeb who cannot think for themselves and just follows what the tv tells them

19:48 mircea_popescu saifedean people generally have an inborn, deeply selected ability to only hear parts. so, through this approach "we pay you 10k in salary on the condition you spend no less than 11k a month" sounds like a good deal.

22:21 thestringpuller mircea_popescu: we may never know. just thought it was relevant when I saw it on r/bitcoin
22:21 mircea_popescu pretty great.
22:22 mircea_popescu the fact that it's one of the lamest "superheroes" (ghost something i dun recall) of one of the lamest "brands" (hanna-barbera, makers of utter age of crap atrocities like scooby doo and the jetsons) only bolsters the point
22:22 mircea_popescu by like > 9000
22:23 thestringpuller lol mircea_popescu never saw space ghost coast 2 coast
22:23 thestringpuller Space Ghost had a night show before Colbert did you know...

22:39 assbot Logged on 08-03-2015 19:31:23; decimation: http://techcrunch.com/2015/03/08/on-secretly-terrible-engineers/ < mostly rambling but has an interesting point "The difference between finance, management consulting, and engineering is that the first two fields have status hierarchy, and the third one doesn’t."
22:40 mircea_popescu all fields have hierarchy. good fields like finance, consulting and [good] engineering have competence based hierarchy. bad fields like women in tech, women in blabla have derpage based hierarchy.
22:42 mircea_popescu props to the idiot women running tech crunch nowadays tho, going to town with their typically idiotic "we claim nonsense as fact, because bois are generally too shy to tell us to stuff it"
22:45 mircea_popescu "I’ve always been curious what all these people have been up to in the Valley. Where do they go all day? What do they do? If we are so surrounded by lackluster talent, how do we build all of these companies that seem to be taking over the world?"
22:45 mircea_popescu ooookay.
22:45 mircea_popescu taking over my penis already.

23:13 danielpbarron i guess it wasn't bitcoind that caused the power cycle; just happened again just now and it wasn't running..
23:16 mircea_popescu <asciilifeform> so perhaps it was -that- rappoport << seems entirely plausible
23:18 decimation ben_vulpes: lol, maybe we can 'seo' the brains of prospective hires
23:20 mircea_popescu i knew that church idiot wasn't the only cockroach in the kitchen
23:20 mircea_popescu i suppose this is going to be the next personal trainer.
23:21 decimation actually he is making exactly the same error that you claim the iq testing guys are making
23:22 mircea_popescu aha ?
23:22 decimation the ability solve random puzzle games probably has nearly nothing to do with being a productive employee
23:23 decimation it might yield interesting patterns across large demographics, but the bridge of causality has yet to be constructed
23:23 mircea_popescu something like that
23:23 mircea_popescu just like the pizzeria that gives you a cute plushie isn't necessarily going to be the best pizza for your buck.
23:24 decimation there is a mystery: plenty of folks sit around all day playing WoW, etc for hours, and yet cannot find a productive 'real job'
23:25 mircea_popescu the job thing cuts so low that it is absolutely NEVER the case ANYONE couldn't find a job. it's just they do not wish to do the jobs available to them.
23:26 mircea_popescu the 2nd and 3rd degree losses from this far outstrip the 1st degree.
23:27 mircea_popescu ie, random imbecile 20something figures it's ok for him to forego employment as the guy bagging my groceries on the grounds that he can do without the 380 a week that job pays, and besides, he's a college grad! so he plays wow.
23:27 mircea_popescu this does not cost him just the 380, but also the ease of interacting with people that job would have forced upon him. so he has no girlfriend.
23:27 mircea_popescu and also the sort of self discipline that job forces on him, so he is now also fat.
23:28 mircea_popescu these are 2nd degree. then the town he lives in goes to shit, because no servants can be found, so smart people leave and usg moves in.
23:28 mircea_popescu that's the 3rd degree. soon enough the whole charade collapsed.
23:28 decimation then he's lowered into peasant-hood and has to work to eat?
23:28 mircea_popescu nope.
23:28 mircea_popescu he gets killed by a "terrorist" who proceeds to rape his corpse and boil his pet.
23:29 mircea_popescu there's no easy ways out.
23:29 decimation heh. others of his kind post on reddit about how terrible this is
23:29 mircea_popescu for all the difference that'll make...
23:30 mircea_popescu i suppose the terrorist can then wipe his bloody tool on reddit screencaps printed on archival paper
23:32 mircea_popescu a normally functioning economy would incentivize him to get out of the loop, by for instance starvation. however... all this desire to "help people" the wrong way, and the overpowered and hyperactive mothers that overprotect the squirrulous fruit of their womb makes any sort of meaningful rescue impossible.
