09:28 mircea_popescu was the #1 topic back in romanian-trilema days, due to the readership being primarily interested in it.
09:31 mircea_popescu all these "successes" would make more money in plain prostitution in 1995 than they do with their "successful" internet bullshits today. but hey, people would much rather "disbelieve" and carry on with their idiocy than stop and reconsider whether "women's issues" and "pop culture" are a decent use of their productive time.
09:32 mircea_popescu "Platforms like YouTube mirror the U.S. economy’s yawning wealth gap, and being a part of YouTube’s “middle class” often means grappling daily with the cognitive dissonance of a full comments section and an empty wallet. Journalists kvell over stars like Swedish gamer Pewdiepie, whose net worth is around $12 million, or comedian Jenna Marbles, who’s worth around $2.5 million. On the other extreme, fan-funding
09:32 mircea_popescu sites like Patreon (a Kickstarter-type site that allows for ongoing funding) are at the center of a communal movement to fund “smaller YouTubers.” But that definition gets blurry. Is someone with 50,000 subscribers worth supporting financially? How about 200,000? What if people assume you’re too successful to need money, and you’re too proud to tell them otherwise?"
09:33 mircea_popescu that's not the question. the question is why is mp worth a billion and kim kardashian worth 10 million. when did death threats > nice ass, by 3 degrees of magnitude ? is this allowed by Obama ?
09:33 mircea_popescu "Nobody knows all this better than me. I’m 27 years old and have been building an online following for 10 years, beginning with a popular Livejournal I wrote in high school." << and yet the notion doesn't go through his head that maybe http://log.bitcoin-assets.com//?date=09-09-2015#1267054

09:34 mircea_popescu and maybe a whole raft of "choices" he "made" by "himself" are the cause of his poverty, through the proxy of his indescribable stupidity.
09:34 mircea_popescu "The high highs and low lows leave me reeling. One week, I was stopped for photos six times while perusing comic books in downtown L.A. The next week, I sat faceless in a room of 40 people vying for a menial courier job. I’ve walked a red carpet with $80 in my bank account. Popular YouTube musician Meghan Tonjes said she performed on Vidcon’s MainStage this year to screaming, crying fans without knowing whether she
09:34 mircea_popescu ’d be able to afford groceries."
09:34 mircea_popescu so much win.
09:39 mircea_popescu "She likened trying to get famous through social media to shelling out money for college—in each case, one suffers through hard work and zero-to-negative income in the hopes of a later payout. The difference, Beggs said, is that YouTube is more accessible “because there’s no admissions committee.” The technical term for this is the Dunning Kruger effect, where unskilled individuals believe themselves to be more
09:39 mircea_popescu adept than they are."
09:40 mircea_popescu heh. and alf blames colleges. looky here alfie : without the college scams, these schmucks would go to youtube to be fleeced.

13:27 mircea_popescu iirc that ugly fat woman whatever her name is that rules his germans still hasn't obtained the slightest satisfaction for being gangraped by the ustards.
13:28 ascii_field speaking of mass rape,
13:28 ascii_field 'We give special attention to whether an AV should save lives by sacrificing its owner, and provide insights into (i) the perceived morality of this self-sacrifice, (ii)the willingness to see this self-sacrifice being legally enforced, (iii) the expectations that AVs will be programmed to self-sacrifice, and (iv) the willingness to buy self-sacrificing AVs.'
13:28 mircea_popescu but hey, maybe one day germany improves enough to be russia.
13:31 ascii_field it is no surprise of any kind that usg is obsessed with 'automatic car'.
13:31 nubbins` just think of all the extra shit you could buy/eat while travelling
13:32 nubbins` struck a ped? better blame the mfg/gov
13:32 ascii_field not to mention the wonderful detours
13:32 nubbins` win/win scenario
13:32 mircea_popescu all this wankery. "oh, should it self-sacrifice ???"
13:32 ascii_field (everybody gets to go through the mw radar arch. and if you're flagged, your car will go straight to the crematorium)
13:32 mircea_popescu let's discuss things of import! to be prepared in case a windfaul reaches us, with a game-plan! to save africa!
13:33 nubbins` for whom the booth tolls!
13:33 ascii_field not to mention the low-tech beauty of 'self-driving car accident' as a means of removing troublesome folk
13:34 mircea_popescu ascii_field the problem with this is that nobody in the Housbroken universe actually owns a car.
13:34 ascii_field wawat
13:34 mircea_popescu seen that film btw ? pretty great indictment of ustardian/white youth
13:34 pete_dushenski ascii_field: owns as in outright, no outstanding loan.
13:34 ascii_field EVERYBODY in usaschwitz (with very few exceptions) spends a good chunk of the day in a car
13:34 nubbins` "wild tales" seemed a great indictment of modern argentina, mp might like it
13:34 ascii_field how the car is gotten - is another matter
13:35 pete_dushenski oddly, only the poorest 'own' car. ($500 beater)
13:35 nubbins` ^
13:35 mircea_popescu coupla 20something kids that anyone simply wants to see raped to death. they're the couch surfing, biking, "creative" minds of the tomorrow / "economies of scale of being youtube famous meaning not famous"
13:35 nubbins` general idea is to "buy" new car before old car is actually owned by you
13:35 ascii_field that marvel of precision engineering, the car that promptly falls apart after the last credit payment, is a fairly recent invention
13:36 ascii_field but sop for something like a decade now, yes
13:36 nubbins` mp you know the 20somethings are the antiheroes in that movie yes?
13:37 nubbins` i.e. the target audience is rooting for them and against mean old dad?
13:37 nubbins` !up ascii_field
13:37 nubbins` because why we gotta get a job man this sux
13:37 mircea_popescu nubbins` that's exactly my point. none of those schmucks has a car.
13:37 nubbins` well it's also a danny devito movie
13:37 mircea_popescu more importantly, none of those schmucks is the intellectual equal of "car ownership"
13:37 mircea_popescu forget owning their own women.
13:37 nubbins` which is literally the button right next to "big mac, upsize fries" on the big machine
13:38 mircea_popescu actually playing out a penitentiary inmate irl is a bar they have to prepare for.
13:38 ascii_field mircea_popescu: most u.s. folks have (in some sense which involves driving it) a car. of some description.
13:38 pete_dushenski mircea_popescu: waitwut THAT'S the hierarchy ? easier to own woman than car ?
13:38 mircea_popescu ascii_field you don't fuck teens alf. you have nfi what your country's like.
13:38 nubbins` heh
13:38 mircea_popescu pete_dushenski mno ?

13:39 pete_dushenski got it.
13:39 ascii_field but where i live, i see even street beggars get into at least a toyota at the end of a long hard day shaking a cup of coins
13:39 mircea_popescu but none of these beggars are 22.
13:39 nubbins` street begging earns ok money
13:39 mircea_popescu the 22 yo beggars are "working hard" at "their social media presence" and don't have access to a car.
13:39 ascii_field mircea_popescu: aha. these tend to be old grizzled folk
13:39 mircea_popescu and so they're going to the crematorium anyway.

13:40 ascii_field the 'social media' maggots tend to gravitate to conurbations with good train service, etc
13:40 mircea_popescu just about the magical car you discuss may be at the earlierst delivered
13:40 mircea_popescu they simply tend to gravitate to places where their dismal means to life are sufficient to survive. "oh i couldn't live in kentucky"
13:40 mircea_popescu indeed you couldn't. baby turtles would eat you.
13:41 ascii_field kentucky is not a magical enclave of the economically +ev
13:41 ascii_field (afaik we don't have any such)
13:41 nubbins` in fairness, taping up a couple photocopies around the city isn't a great way to recruit specific talent
13:41 mircea_popescu no, but it is a magical enclave where you gotta be able to find your way out of a paper bag
13:42 mircea_popescu nubbins` a) couple HUNDRED ; b) if i taped up not a couple, a single "jeans and chewing gum" ad in soviet blok, i'd have needed the canadian mounties to keep order.
13:42 mircea_popescu that this shithole doesn't admit it's one step away from poland 1985 doesn't mean it isn't actually one step away from poland 1985
13:42 ascii_field but afaik it has an ordinary cross-section of ameri-bezzle. i.e. you can just as easily warm a chair at lockheed in kentucky as in dc.
13:42 mircea_popescu ascii_field none of these dudes get warm chairs of any kind.
13:43 mircea_popescu they're the leah goodmans of this world. the people you think are what they wish they were, while meanwhile they starve while thinking somehow they're too good for my ten bitcents.
13:43 ascii_field ah - them
13:43 * ascii_field doesn't spend much time around the certified economically-dead folk
13:43 mircea_popescu yes, them. most everyone that's white and under 30. them.
13:44 thestringpuller mircea_popescu: well specific modelling talent is hard to recruit since it's in high demand.
13:45 thestringpuller particularly in this field.
13:45 mircea_popescu not here.
13:45 mircea_popescu argentina is about as economically dead as you'd expect of a soy & other cash crops exporter.
13:45 nubbins` wtf does argentina have to do with it?
13:45 nubbins` you're on the internet, not on the argentina
13:45 mircea_popescu nubbins` the ads were in argentina doh.
13:46 mircea_popescu ...
13:46 nubbins` well yes
13:46 nubbins` that's the problem
13:46 ascii_field mircea_popescu: might ar be a candidate to become 'an india' - in the sense of coolie labour on warm chairs with keyboard ..?
13:46 nubbins` i know two argentinian artists. know where they live?
13:46 mircea_popescu so wait, let me get this straight. when i want ascii to move here he can't because HE needs meatwot.
13:46 nubbins` not argentina
13:46 thestringpuller But it's not really an economics problem. Game artists are borderline cultists...a game artist will work for free for say Nintendo just cause it's nintendo...
13:46 mircea_popescu when i want to hire the useless shitsacks perambulating in buenos aires, they don't need me. becuase... internet.
13:46 mircea_popescu let's play this game where I use the argument both ways and nobody uses the counter-argument both ways against me
13:46 mircea_popescu because I am the capitalist.
13:47 ascii_field mircea_popescu: laugh all you like, but i went & found a new gig the 'mainstream' way, sans meatwot
13:47 nubbins` you want to hire useless shitsacks?
13:47 mircea_popescu so ; ascii moves because internet ; argentine shitsacks are stuck because meatwot.
13:47 mircea_popescu not vice-fucking-versa.
13:47 mircea_popescu nubbins` i did advertise to argentines, right ?
13:47 ascii_field (but new gig is still a bezzlatronic thing that doesn't exist in ar)
13:47 nubbins` not really, you taped a bunch of flyers to outdoor walls.
13:47 mircea_popescu ...
13:48 mircea_popescu you ever been here ?
13:48 nubbins` close
13:48 nubbins` but not
13:48 mircea_popescu yeah well, then on what basis to you propose to put forth subtlety-based arguments such as that ?
13:48 mircea_popescu for all you know the two are identical. in point of fact they are identical.
13:48 nubbins` on the basis that nobody anywhere in the world advertises for a position more involved than daycare in this manner
13:49 ascii_field also iirc mircea_popescu didn't hire people ?
13:49 nubbins` and while i've not lived many places, i've visited plenty
13:49 nubbins` talented people don't bother reading wheatpasted "help wanted" ads
13:49 thestringpuller I think mircea_popescu underestimates the amount of effort that goes into tayloring game art skills.
13:49 nubbins` that's how the penniless search for help
13:50 mircea_popescu ascii_field thestringpuller allow me to drag in the stalin and other people's fat thing.
13:50 nubbins` the simple fact that you advertised in that manner means nobody qualified is gonna bother reading to the contact info
13:50 mircea_popescu nubbins` again, how the fuck would ytou know ?
13:50 nubbins` because i'm a self-aware adult who lives in the world?
13:50 mircea_popescu don't tell me YOU're the one that's fucking argentine art school majors ?
13:51 mircea_popescu no, you aren't.
13:51 nubbins` but hey, it's not like you need my advice. you seem to have a good handle on advertising for all your ventures O.O
13:51 mircea_popescu the bar for "self-aware adult who lives in the world" is so fuycking high i don't think i'm necessarily there.
13:51 nubbins` MP punching a loaf of bread with a quarter ham: "these idiot ingredients don't make a good sandwich"
13:52 mircea_popescu you're an above-average canadina living in canada. readily granted, but the world is not canada.

13:52 nubbins` in fairness i've only been to maybe a dozen countries
13:52 mircea_popescu in fairness.
13:52 nubbins` but nowhere approaches talent recruitment with this level of retardation
13:52 mircea_popescu "been to" is when you live there, with local women.
13:52 mircea_popescu tourist bs dun count for shit.
13:53 nubbins` but again, keep trying yr current approach
13:53 nubbins` it'll eventually work
13:53 nubbins` and if not, it's 100% because of everyone else
13:53 mircea_popescu heh.
13:53 nubbins` not because taping a flyer to a wall is the shittest way of doing what you're trying to do
13:53 nubbins` :D
13:53 mircea_popescu looky, you don't get to misrepresent what you hear on the basis of how stupid the parts of it that you understood seemed to you.
13:54 nubbins` you know mp is running out of patience when he gets to "looky" and "you don't get"
13:54 ascii_field can we do stalin and fat before mircea_popescu forgets why ?
13:54 nubbins` you don't get to pretend taping shit to a wall makes sense.
13:54 nubbins` "the people will notice it's not the turd it seems"
13:54 nubbins` uh huh
13:54 mircea_popescu taping shit to a wall has a longer history than canada.
13:55 nubbins` that's the qualifier now?
13:55 mircea_popescu not that that particular stupidity is too well related to the other stupidities.
13:55 mircea_popescu ascii_field sure. what about it ?
13:55 nubbins` usa has a longer history than canada, see where that's got em
13:55 mircea_popescu nubbins` this is where you notice that you said something dumb and realise that maybe the other things you said come from the same place.

13:56 nubbins` hey, that's the next best thing to actually claiming that yr approach to recruitment makes sense
13:56 nubbins` remember when leah goodman chose dorian nakamoto because he was the only satoshi within driving distance?
13:56 mircea_popescu there exist people in this world who are economically worthless because they are argentines. giving them an opportunity to starve so as to work for me, a guy that isn't economically worthless for being argentine, is a -ev play for most and a +ev play for some.
13:57 mircea_popescu exactly the stalin approach.
13:57 ascii_field nubbins`: where i live, posters on telephone poles are pretty much exclusively for classical scams (ponzi, 'sell house quick', 'work to save the earth!111', etc)
13:57 nubbins` remember when you put up a bunch of flyers in b.a because it was the only city within driving distance?

13:57 nubbins` despite being worldly
13:57 ascii_field but i do not think this is true in ba
13:58 nubbins` mircea_popescu so..?
13:58 mircea_popescu ascii_field whart do you mean not true in ba! all places are the same places! all peopel are really the same as nubbins!
13:58 mircea_popescu EVERYTHING IS THE SAME!
13:58 nubbins` i lived in seoul, 21mn people in metro area. know who's advertising on the poles?
13:58 * ascii_field saw a great many things on placards in ba
13:58 mircea_popescu sure makes thinking one "self aware of the world" a shithell of a heck easier.
13:58 nubbins` strip clubs and diet pills
13:58 mircea_popescu nubbins` seoul is a motherfucking rich place omfg.
13:58 nubbins` lule

13:59 nubbins` is it?
13:59 ascii_field but (afaik) perfectly honest ones
13:59 mircea_popescu i don't think you actually understand how poor these people are.

14:00 nubbins` you're struggling to string a point together here
14:00 mircea_popescu the argument here isn't that some unrelated people are poor. the argument here is that the very fucking people in question don't have fifty pesos.

14:01 mircea_popescu they couldn't get the 100k together.
14:01 nubbins` and i am saying that you've gone the polar opposite of "rounding up all the 10k".
14:01 mircea_popescu ...
14:01 nubbins` you've rounded up all the 0.
14:02 mircea_popescu and you know this because you feel things.
14:02 nubbins` i know this because nobody bothered reading your ads
14:02 thestringpuller don't think poor people are best adapted for working in 3DS Max/Maya given the time investment, plus the cost of the software.
14:02 mircea_popescu "no, i know this because i can fit explanations ex post facto as well as alf used to can"
14:02 mircea_popescu thestringpuller i don't want to work with people who pay "for software" in this sense anyway.
14:02 ascii_field thestringpuller: 'cost of the software' ?!!!! ya trying to make me die of laugh ?
14:02 nubbins` dat invention of hypotheticals as a retort
14:03 nubbins` posting flyers in b.a is about as sensible as posting a wanted at on derpstalk forum
14:03 mircea_popescu and you know this because...
14:03 nubbins` for reasons which i cannot begin to fathom, you seem to not equate these two things
14:03 thestringpuller oops meant cost of hardware to run said software*
14:04 nubbins` mp you know the opposite because, what? some random chick tells you "yeah this is how people find work here"
14:04 nubbins` thumbsup.svg
14:04 mircea_popescu this is besides the point. i am not held to justify what i do to you.
14:04 nubbins` no indeed, you're not.
14:04 mircea_popescu you wish to judge what i do, you'd god damned better have some footing to stand on.

14:05 nubbins` it seems you do feel some urge to justify what you've done
14:05 nubbins` if for no other reason than to pull some strips of cloth over the naked lameness of it
14:05 nubbins` ;/
14:05 mircea_popescu mno. i just answer to random idiots derping on in here, because of a naive and perhaps misplaced notion that they'll learn something from the experience.

14:06 nubbins` well, the saying goes: "naive in one area means naive in no others"
14:06 nubbins` you're prob right about the flyers thing

14:20 thestringpuller We all laugh at MIT until they create synths after the great war.
14:20 mircea_popescu <nubbins`> i've got a friend who did some 3d modelling & textures for the Ender's Game movie << and the eulora splashscreen was done by jason juta (ie, the guy that did half the wizards of the coast franchise). and yes, i could employ him (at his very reasonable rates) to do the whole thing.
14:20 mircea_popescu i won't. because i'm not spending money that way, and i don't give a shit what the needs of whatever art derp are.
14:21 mircea_popescu he can starve to serve me and then i might consider him. before that he can get fucked.
14:21 mircea_popescu i need him like i need more hair. he needs me like he needs more food.
14:21 * ascii_field sometimes wonders if mircea_popescu does the 'nail in a coffin and float'em down the river as test of faith' thing also
14:21 mircea_popescu and none of this is going to be changed by discussing around the bush.
14:23 mircea_popescu ascii_field no, mircea_popescu simply does not give a shit.
14:23 ascii_field well inspired by the 'starve to serve me' thing
14:24 ascii_field but yeah, this whole thing is kinda replay of the old 'soviet vs roman army' thread, aha
14:24 mircea_popescu <jurov> other than "busy" << mmmkay.
14:25 jurov actually now i remember he did not like any responsibility, like, gpg signing the releases
14:25 mircea_popescu <nubbins`> offer comments on why flyers are retarded if you dare << besides the fucking point, really. i don't think they're not retarded. nevertheless, to the people who fail to take advantage of this, that failure is just another added failure.
14:25 mircea_popescu i understand "we"'d "all" love to be excused from the failures list, but that's not how it works.
14:26 * ascii_field also recalls the rental agency with btc private keys on placards thread
14:26 mircea_popescu jurov> anyway. since bsas is million metropol, there surely are some "coworking" places where exactly such art derps usually concetrate <<< yes but apparently they go in there thought the window not the door ; cant read in any case and anyway - too busy doing nothing to do soemthing useful
14:26 mircea_popescu particularly because how dares this asshole to discern between useful and useless in the vast world full of possibilities which shouldn't be discriminated against or someshit.
14:27 mircea_popescu <ascii_field> perhaps they have a trade publication where work is offered <<< you're thinking europe. think kirgizstan.
14:27 * ascii_field thinks kirgizstan
14:27 mircea_popescu <ascii_field> but i'll be the first to say that i have certifiably nfi how programmerz find work in b-a! << you mean webwork. what else ?
14:27 ascii_field and mircea_popescu still wonders how come i haven't moved ?
14:28 mircea_popescu <jurov> meeting them in flesh should overcome their problems with unusuallness or whatevs << not from experience. meeting idiots in the flesh doesn't make them less idiotic, just puts them in a better position to waste your time.
14:28 ascii_field ^^
14:29 jurov well. so you want artist that is both not an idiot and reads pole pulp
14:29 jurov gl
14:29 mircea_popescu ascii_field again : i expect that all arguments work both sides for me and for me only. you, you don't need meatwot can go wherever. the argentine derp, can not use internet, may not leave country.
14:29 mircea_popescu not the other way around.
14:29 mircea_popescu jurov i don't want anything.
14:29 mircea_popescu this isn't about me selling. this is about me buying.
14:31 ascii_field mircea_popescu: possibly the hidden gotcha is that internet hasn't been invented yet on my planet. (i.e. folks offering the sort of work that i do, demand at least occasional physical chair parade)
14:31 mircea_popescu possibly.
14:32 ascii_field i could speculate re: ~why~ (short version: it's what usa has instead of a berlin wall - otherwise mass exodus of programmers etc. to cheapo banana republics)
14:33 mircea_popescu maybe.
14:33 ascii_field (another tricky bit is that one of the things employers pay folks for is ~not working for competitor~ and this is difficult to monitor without on-site chair)
14:34 mircea_popescu quite.
14:34 mircea_popescu this is probably a major factor, really.
14:34 * ascii_field has been pondering subj for many years
14:35 ascii_field but the most basic thing, afaik, is simple capital control
14:35 mircea_popescu <ascii_field> shinohai: afaik the old corpse is just that - mit is the new phoundation <<< seems that way.
14:36 ascii_field (omfg they might take their bezzle dollars and bid up the cost of turkeys in shitholistan where we need'em cheap)
14:37 ascii_field the cheapness of turkeys/whores/petro/etc in shitholistans is a ~natural resource~, like any other thermodynamic gradient. and you don't get to ride the gradient just by asking, just like a random schmuck doesn't get to ride soviet plutonium just for asking.
14:38 mircea_popescu anyway, to the more general point here : i'm the only entity that can't be held hostage. "oh, we won't do X until you Y" works when I say it at others, not when others try it on me. you can't say "hey mp, you gotta do it like this", because the point isn't for me to get something done, the point is for me to change the way things are done in the first place.
14:38 mircea_popescu ascii_field quite.
14:38 ascii_field which is why i say 'mircea_popescu wake me up plz when you've transmuted the x to a y'
14:38 mircea_popescu which is why you gotta move. always go against the gradients/.
14:39 mircea_popescu ascii_field by the time that's done, my dear alf, everyone who's still asleep ain't never waking up again.
14:39 mircea_popescu that much you can take to the wallet.
14:39 ascii_field well i'd happily move if i were 1337 enough to take the gradient, rather than BE the fuel
14:39 mircea_popescu aha.
14:39 mircea_popescu that part makes sense.
14:39 mircea_popescu it's also annoying.
14:40 ascii_field see also http://log.bitcoin-assets.com//?date=14-11-2015#1323880

14:42 mircea_popescu ascii_field the difference between "not work for competition" and "capital control" is inexistent - the us is a centrally controlled economy just like the su. and so, the soviets couldn't leave because "the state invested in their education", right ?
14:42 ascii_field aha precisely same mechanism
14:42 ascii_field 'yer meat and you stay in this here fence'
14:43 mircea_popescu well, in order for the system to collapse it must be made to bleed.
14:43 mircea_popescu in order for it to bleed ions need to go against gradient.
14:43 mircea_popescu that's all.
14:47 BingoBoingo !up ascii_field
14:47 ascii_field http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=15-12-2015#1343805 << for my education: what would such 'bleeding' look like ?
14:47 assbot Logged on 15-12-2015 19:43:10; mircea_popescu: well, in order for the system to collapse it must be made to bleed.
14:48 ascii_field (or, in other words, what precisely is it that said system could not afford to lose ?)
14:48 mircea_popescu every time i talk to one of my chinese bankers here, moving some dollar bits against peso bits, both the argentine government and the us government bleed a little.
14:48 mircea_popescu every time you leave the us, and continue to extract dollars from the us which however the usg can't tax, and spend them in kirgiztan, but so the kirgiztan also cant' tax, both bleed a little.
14:49 mircea_popescu every time you take a 19yo that'd have made someone a great wife and you make her a great whore, the system bleeds a little.
14:49 ascii_field eh there remain many megatonnes of fat to be trimmed from plebes like asciilifeform , ben_vulpes , et al before the usg ruling caste bleeds
14:49 mircea_popescu the more you live, the less life's left for them.
14:49 mircea_popescu so go, live.
14:49 mircea_popescu the rest doesn't really matter.
14:50 mircea_popescu everytime some derp is "offended" at who knows what offensiveness yet his offense rings impotent, the system dies a little.
14:50 ascii_field this looks quite like folks who explained their gold/watches/dollars bootleg ops in moscow as 'help sink the stinking su faster !111'
14:50 mircea_popescu aha.
14:50 mircea_popescu exactly what it was.
14:51 * ascii_field not convinced that the gnats killed the elephant
14:51 mircea_popescu every shot policeman, every dollar embezzled, witheld from the irs, every subpar item delivered to the usg, everything.
14:51 mircea_popescu they all add together and then one day, suddenly, the "old way of life" is an impossibility.
14:52 mircea_popescu and nobody knows which gnats killed the elephant. "it was just meant to be".
14:52 mircea_popescu historical imperative, as they say.
14:52 * ascii_field cannot deny that sufficiently many straws will break camel's back. but this might take a while.
14:53 mircea_popescu for as long as you're part of the solution, it taking a while is no detriment.
14:53 mircea_popescu this is in fact how you know that you're part of the solution.
14:57 ascii_field meanwhile, at the l0lfactory,
14:57 ascii_field 'Which makes me suspicious, and I have no evidence, just an opinion that there seems to be a powerful force behind these guys like btcdrak, petertodd, etc., like perhaps that jdillon guy, who seems to be directing their actions. If you read some old leaks of jdillon chat with ptodd you can see that all/most of the stuff they are now publicly pushing were suggested by him, including the flexicap nonsense which gmax tried
14:57 ascii_field to suggest in the 2nd [censored] conference.'
15:03 ascii_field oh, unrelatedly,
15:03 ascii_field 'A C++ module that generates maps procedurally is required for Eulora. In this first iteration, the idea of a "map" reduces to "a folded corridor 3 x 3 units in square section". Folding means that the corridor may curve however you please (provided it's continuous, contains no volumes smaller than 3x3 units and no inclines over 10%) and run into itself (not necessarily at right angles).' << this is in SWAG !!!
15:03 ascii_field classical algo

15:38 nubbins` http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=15-12-2015#1343790 << oh, i get it. so you're trying to bring job recruitment into the photocopy-taped-to-wall era

15:39 mircea_popescu nubbins` wouldja stop trying to salvage the "i'm derpy from derpland and i know of things i've never seen because totallies" ? it's dead.
15:39 nubbins` be sure to tape all 4 sides so they're harder to rip down
15:40 mircea_popescu some other interesting datapoints : back in the 90s, cluj, a 400k ish inhabitant city, had three dedicated ad papers, printed weekly. together ~200 pages, for a yearly thoroughput in the 1mn ads range. so like 2.5 per capita.
15:40 mircea_popescu buenos aires, a thing worth 30x that many inhabitants, has no dedicated ad paper, and never detectably had. the thoroughput is negligible, as in not even 0.001 per capita.
15:40 mircea_popescu they also don't exist on craigslist or backpage.
15:41 mircea_popescu and in general... the point here is that argentines are retarded, in a very palpable, amply demonstrable sense.
15:41 mircea_popescu not that nubbins is in the poster printing business and in the self-loathing mental space, so he thinks posters are a bad idea.
15:41 nubbins` posters are a great idea for me, not so much for others

15:48 mircea_popescu sounds like they got the right idea.
15:49 mircea_popescu "Does anyone get positive feedback on their looks on the Internet but not irl?" heh.
15:49 mircea_popescu "I am a downer most of the time, I'm not outgoing, not funny, not talkative. The only thing I have is my average intelligence. Being depressed makes you not want to do anything. The medication I'm taking doesn't even make me feel better sometimes. I hate that when you're unattractive or below average you have to wield so many positive traits just to get someone to like you. Attractive people get to be mediocre."

15:50 BingoBoingo "Last time I went I saw a few beautiful girls (something I'd never see close to at home) and it made me so extremely depressed that it ruined the whole trip (I went with family).

I even had some hot friends in school. It's different when the girl is ethereally b
15:50 BingoBoingo eautiful. Some of them literally look photoshopped in person."
15:50 mircea_popescu why does she think feeling like a completely inferior subhuman is bad ?
15:51 mircea_popescu "I'm FA everywhere. When I lived in a big, glamorous city, I was too ugly and fat for anyone to even consider dating. Now that I'm in a smaller place, with lots of fat and/or unattractive people, I'm more highly educated than the vast majority of men, so I'm still FA."

18:43 mircea_popescu the irony being that bitcoin going to shit wouldn't resolve all the numerous problems all the shitcoins have
18:43 mircea_popescu it WOULD however resolve the only problem the shitheads involved ~perceive~
18:43 mircea_popescu so very ustardian, their approach.

20:32 nubbins` hardforks are the new altcoins
20:33 nubbins` i can't believe it's not bitcoin
20:34 asciilifeform i'm still waiting for the 'dekulakization' altcoins
20:34 asciilifeform i.e. 'bitcoin but i get to move satoshi's coin' etc
20:35 mircea_popescu you don;t properly grok how the ustardian mind works. you see, it's gotta be meta to be real.
20:35 mircea_popescu it can't be something pointful, meaningful, "i get to move satoshi's stash".
20:35 mircea_popescu it's gotta be some sort of useless, pointless derpage.

20:38 mircea_popescu think of it in terms of, being a very mediocre, fat woman that was writing code. lotta goto's, the ocasional for-loop-by-hand, and no passing by reference.
20:38 asciilifeform funnily it is (or at least once was) entirely legal in usa
20:38 mircea_popescu the kids internalized the "what would it happen if EVERYONE did that" playground "adult" thinking, and now live by it.
20:39 mircea_popescu so they won't make an altcoin that makes YOU be able to do something, because "you" is undefined. instead... make an altcoin that "saves africa". that, ANYONE could do.
20:40 mircea_popescu and since anyone could do, everyone should do, so why aren't you.
20:41 asciilifeform i still cannot properly grasp what moves these folks
20:43 mircea_popescu same thing that moves the dust.

21:15 mircea_popescu anyway, "hacking" is not a thing, it's the byproduct of knowing how to program computers. which you can learn, like anything else, provided you got the patience.
21:16 indiancandy1 ur right
21:16 TheNewDeal I think they're unconvered some equipment from the mines
21:17 TheNewDeal they're trying to reverse this whole bitcoin economy
