02:42 mircea_popescu "a woman that can not use her own body to extemporaneously exemplify grace has scant changes to sexual fulfillment".
02:43 punkman chick was pretty good, most derps on youtube try to hold on using only their hands
02:43 mircea_popescu yup.
02:43 mircea_popescu the reason she's so good is because she puts no work into it whatsoever. just absorbs the bull with minimal friction.
02:43 mircea_popescu this happens to be a perfectly fine (if negative) definition of gracefulness, and thus a fine way to measure it.
02:44 punkman plenty of friction between bull and vulva
02:45 mircea_popescu notrly.
02:45 mircea_popescu (the reason the thigh gap exists, anatomically, is exactly to provide insulation from work friction as seen there. her cunt's in the air throughout)
02:47 mircea_popescu also the mechanical bull is specifically designed to defeat men, which is to say, humans who use force to compensate for a lack of gracefulness.
02:47 mircea_popescu the thing with using force is that your muscles are dual controlled, there's a fine and a gross motor innervation.
02:48 mircea_popescu as the muscle grows tired it becomes unresponsive to fine control
02:49 mircea_popescu (whosoever fucked a woman properly could readily verify this by laying on back and trying to slowly move knees up. the jerky motion is due to lack of fine control)
02:49 mircea_popescu and as the rider becomes unable to exercise fine control, he becomes unable to maintain balance.
02:49 mircea_popescu as errors compound.

02:57 mircea_popescu "On 23 August 1927, Sacco and Vanzetti were executed; in response, a 24-hour general strike was proclaimed in Buenos Aires, as well as many other capitals of the world.

05:05 davout mircea_popescu: tbf i'd probably advertise x.eur a bit more if i didn't have to wait days for x.eur holder statements
05:06 mircea_popescu you never had to wait all that much once you asked for 'em!
05:06 mircea_popescu i'm ... mefiant of too automated systems.
05:07 davout the point is i really shouldn't have to ask
05:07 davout i'm not saying it has to be automated
05:07 mircea_popescu i can't in good conscience propose that the contract may be renewed when i've not even heard from you.
05:08 mircea_popescu this may even be ridiculous, but it's still what i'm stuck with.
05:08 mircea_popescu there must be a minimum of attention available. it is perhaps true that if you didn't even have to show up once a mnonth for it you'd have more attention available to promote the thing. it is an unpersuasive theory.
05:10 davout nobody is proposing the contract should be renewed, the contract itself is here, stands and describes the instrument, that's how i read it
05:11 davout "2.3. Settlement. Upon the Settlement Date, which shall be the 15th day of every month at noon GMT,"
05:11 davout "(a) The Exchange will compile a list of all contract holders, identifying their registered GPG signatures and the number of contracts held, encrypt this list and forward it to the Market Maker."
05:13 mircea_popescu you seriously propose that going "oh hai" once a month is too much service here ?
05:14 davout is that what i'm proposing?
05:15 mircea_popescu best i can tell.
05:17 mircea_popescu for instance : last month, the stuff went unrenewed for about two weeks. two weeks during which you didn't complain about the matter. this, not because I didn't notice. i had noticed. i was actually getting ready to announce that the x.eur thing is discontinued.
05:17 mircea_popescu the moral of that experience isn't to complain at me that you weren't around for a while. the moral of that experience is to be around. it is after all your flagship product as far as i can tell. treat it like it were.
05:18 mircea_popescu and yes this includes scheduling your vacations, divorces and funerals around the 15th of the month. it's that important.
05:24 mircea_popescu and since we're talking about things : http://www.newsbtc.com/2015/09/07/bitcoin-startup-paymium-raised-e1-million-in-seed-funding/ << this i read about in "newsbtc" ? because why ?
05:24 assbot Bitcoin Startup Paymium Raised €1 Million in Seed Funding - NEWSBTC ... ( http://bit.ly/1KR8dLN )
05:27 davout what i'm proposing is that the contract is pretty clear, and that me hanging around #b-a and keeping up with it, is important, but nonetheless absolutely orthogonal with it.
05:28 davout if you want to make me requesting x.eur holders list a part of the process that's fine, we'll update the contract
05:29 mircea_popescu i don't want anything specific. but i will be keeping track of a large ammount of tiny indicators, because anything else results in exam-taking-training.
↖
05:30 mircea_popescu so if you're wondering where the X is, as you should be wondering at any point after noon on the 15th, and it occurs to you we've prolly not heard anything from you in weeks, one of the simplest solutions is to fix it ad hoc, and one of the better solutions is to fix whatsoever fundamental problems that led to your misallocation of time towards reddit or w/e the fuck. because otherwise the rift this allows is bound to
05:30 mircea_popescu grow, and eventually tear things apart.
05:30 mircea_popescu maybe i got special mental needs or something, but to me all this seems obvious.
05:32 mircea_popescu and i still dunno why if im friends with the cto of some company i gotta read from random spamsite about financing events at some company.
05:32 mircea_popescu i can't even follow how or why this seemed like a good idea.
05:38 davout thought i had talked about it in-chan, guess i didn't
05:40 mircea_popescu i love you but dun go tramplin' on my feelin's!!!

08:18 davout in direct contradiction of 4.1 of said contract, btw

08:20 jurov i think mp was talking about 2.4 d .. that "tacit agreement" means you being around and alive
08:22 davout i read "tacit" as "not requiring being explicit about it" not much more

09:07 funkenstein_ like, what would that even mean, "women-centric"? Perhaps that as a man you would move in at your mother-in-law's place and take their name.
09:08 funkenstein_ An arrangement that doesn't sound too bad to me, having a house given to you as well as babysitters and cooks

09:10 funkenstein_ houses being passed on to the daughters is the main reason anthropologist use the word "matriarchy"
09:10 funkenstein_ anyway the idea that any of this would have an affect on whether your kids were slaughtered by retarded orcs is oblique at best

09:16 mircea_popescu and ftr, what i mean by "women-centric" is that the sorts of concerns of women (pain avoidance) are priviledged as societal goals. this is both harmful to society's prospects of survival as it is harmful to ALL individual members, overall, of both sexes.
09:26 funkenstein_ aha, perhaps something like a "the world is a loving mother and will take care of you" attitude?

09:58 punkman mod6, can haz graph with the 3 patches I sent to ml? curious how that'd look
10:02 mod6 I might be able to throw that together. my version should be out for testing in the next week or so though if you just wanna wait. it'll build the whole graph for you with wild patches.
10:03 mod6 i'm trying to wrap up all these automated cucumber tests & loose ends on some stuff.
10:07 mod6 at this point, what it'll do is build a whole graphviz dotfile and output that to stdout or a file. the only part that it wont do (because you have to install `dot' separately) is for example: `dot -Tsvg <dotfile> > graph.html`
10:08 mod6 i guess i could add a method that'll check if dot is installed, and if it is, then will generate the svg html file for you... but *shrug*

10:17 mod6 like alf and I were discussing last week - we're going to create a release vpatch that will take all leaf edges and tie them up with a new release vertex.
10:18 mod6 then yours will be added after that.
10:18 punkman mod6, release patch means every other patch you had not in release breaks though

11:16 thestringpuller mircea_popescu: Atlanta has a lot of black folk. But Georgia as a whole is mainly rednecks.
11:16 mircea_popescu thestringpuller afaik (mebbe out of date) georgia has the largest black population of the union
11:16 thestringpuller The suburbs of Atlanta are mainly white people factory.
11:17 mircea_popescu it not being a terribly populous state, this makes the percent markedly higher than say ny or la
11:17 mircea_popescu like 30% or some shit
11:17 mircea_popescu doubt anything else is even over 20. maybe mississippi

11:27 mircea_popescu i am unpersuaded by that, either.
11:28 mircea_popescu what remains here is : a) that the usg is very vulnerable, has always been, and far from a "you can do nothing to us" a top guy is killed every few decades, and the lower agents get popped daily.
11:28 mircea_popescu in fact it's safer to be a criminal than a usg agent.
11:28 ascii_field fact is, poor whites are virtually absent from urban centers. whether martians removed them, or something else, can be debated. the demographics - not so much

11:38 ascii_field mircea_popescu: for my enlightenment, formulate example of 'usable' hypothesis here ?
11:38 mircea_popescu "usa" was the brand name a few disparate centers of population and of a few slightly more coherent centers of production used for a brief interval between two european wars.
11:38 * ascii_field is taking 'very start' to refer, as it conventionally did, to the english colonies of 17th and 18th c.
11:38 mircea_popescu it has no more substance to it than "revlon"

11:39 mircea_popescu there is no contemporary usa.

11:39 mircea_popescu as the outermost extensions
11:42 mircea_popescu it was replaced by "the us", but much in the way things changed from the pre-brejnev soviets to the post, it is now a label to distance oneself from.
11:42 mircea_popescu nobody seriously professed a hatred of the usa, or professes a love of the us.
11:42 ascii_field nobody ?
11:42 mircea_popescu pushing a point, but no, even the teeth clenching arabs were in love with the usa.

15:08 mats if you have plans to buy things with your credit card tomorrow, should prob do it today, processing networks will be intermittently down
15:08 mircea_popescu here's the thing in my head : b-a is by now at a stage where it kinda needs its own pr agency. and you might be just the asshole to do that, if you swing that way. do you swing that way ?
15:08 thestringpuller mats: is this national?
15:08 mats yes
15:09 ascii_field mircea_popescu: pr agency, l0l! isn't that what moiety starved doing ?
15:09 mircea_popescu no.
15:09 mircea_popescu she starved doing the very scared of bombs secretary brit girl.
15:09 pete_dushenski mircea_popescu how do you imagine this agency working ?
15:09 pete_dushenski i'm at essentially no risk of starvation, ftr.
15:09 mircea_popescu and the process of her starvation was that she starved on her own devices, b-a got her a place to stay and then she ran off.
15:09 ascii_field iirc pete_dushenski even sleeps ad libitum
15:10 pete_dushenski even with infant, i do indeed
15:10 ascii_field just the man for a 'Men wanted for hazardous journey. Low wages, bitter cold, long hours of complete darkness. Safe return doubtful. Honour and recognition in event of success.'
15:10 mircea_popescu pete_dushenski a pr agency is in this day and age a very simple affair, but somewhat time consuming. in principle, it can be reduced to a lone dude with an internet connection and two lists. one, longer, of useful social media derps. the sort that are willing to do the hard work of upvoting, derping on reddit, etc. the other, sadly shorter, of actual important people can talk to directly. like say "all newspaper column
15:10 mircea_popescu ists in so and so".
15:11 mircea_popescu building these is not particularly difficult,. but it takes time. more importantly, it takes determination. and the sort of attitude of the guy that hey, the managers don't wanna see, but since the phone is here...
15:11 ascii_field mircea_popescu: can't resist the question, what is the point of having the first of the lists ?
15:11 mircea_popescu faux "consensus" building.
15:11 mircea_popescu you know, like reddit all agreed that XT is gonna take over.
15:12 * ascii_field was under the impression that this is a waste of time
15:12 ascii_field at least as per mircea_popescutronic theory
15:12 mircea_popescu depends for whom. why allow the pinoys to make this money ?
15:12 mircea_popescu starve the enemy throughout.
15:12 mircea_popescu denial is a valid strategy.
15:14 thestringpuller mircea_popescu: how is this any different than marketing?
15:14 pete_dushenski mircea_popescu i believe i grok the first list - straightforward enough really, compile those on 'social media' on 'our side' and focus their energies accordingly - it's the second list i'm less clear about.
15:14 mircea_popescu pete_dushenski arrington's success, you have to understand, is very little more than this. it's not a difficult recipe to read or follow. it just takes the hard worker to execute.
15:15 mircea_popescu one could argue that jobs genius is altogether not much above this either.
15:15 mircea_popescu pete_dushenski no, it's more like, spend all your time on fiverr and craigslist and wherever the hungry congregate, spend a little money buying their ample time.
15:16 mircea_popescu nobody gives a shit about extant social media accounts. their value is not even a fractrion of the work they put in
15:16 ascii_field notice how dog sleds exist, but not rat sleds.
15:16 mircea_popescu what you want is shannonizing meatrobots, capable of pouring out more nonsense. they're cheaper than the electric type, as of yet.
15:16 pete_dushenski aha. so basically #1 is fighting fire with fire.
15:16 ascii_field or chicken sleds.

15:17 mircea_popescu ascii_field which it isn't.
15:18 pete_dushenski mircea_popescu and #2 is a list of journalists who may require quotes from time to time, which i would then provide directly or send them here to ask b-a directly ?
15:18 ascii_field then beautiful.
15:18 mircea_popescu pete_dushenski as to the 2nd list : you want to build raport with those people. make a habit of taking one to lunch every week, if at all possible.
15:18 mircea_popescu (very fucking possible, they travel on starvation budgets)
15:20 pete_dushenski not to put too fine a point on it, but when and how is 'finance' or 'tech' journalist coming to buttfuck edmonton ? afaik they stay at home, work in nyc, or go to 'conpherences'
15:22 pete_dushenski mircea_popescu but that's really just a practical matter, there are other ways to build rapport. the bigger question is 'why a pr agency' and 'why now?'
15:23 pete_dushenski it's surely more than just a make work project for me in your mind
15:26 mircea_popescu you familiar with all the alf parachute talk ?
15:26 pete_dushenski don't wait until you're falling from plane to build parachute ?
15:27 mircea_popescu that stuff. and besides, YOU travel now and again don't you ?
15:27 mircea_popescu you'll be going to a lot more conferences i guess.
15:31 pete_dushenski mircea_popescu i certainly traveled plenty pre-monstre, though this will be decidedly diminished for at least 6-12 months. also, such trips only once coincided with a conpherence. going forward, as most traveling i do is personal touristing, these are unlikely to coincide again.
15:31 mircea_popescu because why ?
15:31 assbot [MPEX] [S.MPOE] 7100 @ 0.0006799 = 4.8273 BTC [-]
15:31 pete_dushenski furthermore, the expense of just taking trips to conpherenes seems prohibitive
15:32 mircea_popescu besides, i wouldn't expect this to get anywhere within 12 months. if it does within 36 i'll be impressed.
15:32 pete_dushenski well that's all you needed to say :)
15:33 pete_dushenski if 36 months is mp='impressed', then 48='so-so' and longer than that is 'pete wasn't the right man for the job'

15:36 pete_dushenski ima mull it over and research a little further into this 'pr' business
↖
15:36 mircea_popescu the only true drawback is that unlike real estate, this is a constant maintenance racket. everything you have at any point won't be useful in 5 years, or even 3. things move too fast. so its not one of those "do this right once it's done forever" stories like alf likes. it's more of a "hold this lamp up".
15:37 pete_dushenski that does sound a bit annoying
15:37 pete_dushenski i quite enjoy my time for reading, writing, etc... hmm.
15:38 mircea_popescu don't use up old age activities while you're young.

16:31 thestringpuller and sometimes golf
16:32 pete_dushenski country club sports. as you do.
16:32 thestringpuller I would expect the midwest to have baseball as the top sport.
16:32 phf mircea_popescu: you know it was just b-a of the 1800s. << i think of b-a as more of a stonemasone guild, then a fraternity. maybe in a couple of hundred years when b-a has hereditary wot ratings and ceremonial pgp keys that are not otherwise used for anything. the way i read that joke is that one has the trappings and the other has a trowel that is used for its direct purpose.
16:32 mircea_popescu i dun think i'd encourage any kid to play "professional" school sports. they don't get paid (no, 'scholarship' is not pay like coupons are not refunds) ; b) it's really fucking unhealthy. i mean being in shape is one thing. being "an athlete" is about as unhealthy as being a diabethic.
16:32 mircea_popescu phf well sure.

16:49 BingoBoingo The big problem with American Football is that it is actually a combat sport, but a polite consensus has developed around not referring to it as such
16:51 mircea_popescu lafond has a pretty good point re the "yo mamma's gonna cash out on being the mother of a got-shot".
16:51 mircea_popescu this is like that except with less shot. technically a step up
16:55 BingoBoingo At least boxing was more honest about the crippling yourself for others amusement there. If you work hard enough and get good enough your head doesn't get hit as much. American football hitting your head against things is kinda mandatory.
16:56 BingoBoingo Recently they've been introducing new rules to football to penalize you from hitting otherpeople's heads in certain ways, but hitting your head is still mandatory.
