assbot: Logged on 19-05-2015 00:56:48; justJanne: mike_c: kinda. But corruption makes discussion always useless.
mircea_popescu: all the shoulding and oughting and wanting is outright criminal.
trinque: is that like, paying people to do things?
trinque: fucking evil
mircea_popescu: me persuading people to betray uncle sam = corruption!111 ; congress coming up with fatca to FORCE people into betraying their own customers = rule of law
trinque: they're incredibly obedient, which is probably fine under sane circumstances
mircea_popescu: corruption is commerce that dares work against one's ideological goals. the mere fact that this could happen invalidates that one's thinking, and the fact it happens i npractice, and not even exceptionally but to the degree it can no longe be ignored even by the wilfully ignorant ...
mircea_popescu: basically if corruption is a problem you're hitler.
mircea_popescu: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=19-05-2015#1137586 << yes, it is. so is germany. the situation here is that a leper and a phtysic point at each other.
assbot: Logged on 19-05-2015 00:59:33; justJanne: Because the US is a reference point as worst case civilized country.
mircea_popescu: yes, yes, the one with tb will die first and the one with leprosy stinks worst. big whoop.
mircea_popescu: "Doubtless the danger of infection is exaggerated to-day in its sociological dangerous manner."
mircea_popescu: century ago, same problems.
mircea_popescu: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=19-05-2015#1137583 << yes. and it only works for as long as there's free herring in the scania straight, or for as long as kennedy is ein berliner and airlifts food for free, or for as long as the north sea oil lasts, or for as long as insane luck rolls keep going. otherwise, fuckall, german peasants were the most unfortunate wretches throughout the intermediate period between first

mircea_popescu: there's no rule that "everyone must has", be it equal chances or whatever else. there's also no rule that everyone's just as good as everyone else.
mircea_popescu: not everything has to be preserved. some shit dies, thanks fucking god.
mircea_popescu: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=19-05-2015#1137652 << this is true. famine is what made eastern european girls such hotties the past 2-3 decades. it's fading, of course.

assbot: Logged on 19-05-2015 01:15:30; justJanne: If you have small narrow streets, distances between 10 and 15 km, and a huge amount of people on tiny space,
BingoBoingo: The natural order of things is you walk around town and drive (car, horse, rocket) between towns.
BingoBoingo: A bicycle is just dead wait that's going to get stolen as soon as you have to go inside a building
mircea_popescu: "on this point, there can be no debate!"
BingoBoingo: And if one can't walk with leisure to all places of import in the town, the town sucks
trinque: driving alone on a road being a close second
trinque: I used to get a lot of thinking done driving between the major cities in TX; past a certain hour there's nobody out there

justJanne: BingoBingo: the issue is that you can't walk around in larger towns anymore, and that's where bikes become useful. And no, people don't steal it. Hell, I've left my laptop hundreds of times on random park benches in heavily frequented parks, never stolen. In my neighborhood most people don't even lock their doors.
ben_vulpes: <justJanne> danielpbarron: unless you lose it all, and have no money and are starving << people who should starve should starve
justJanne: And that's where you are wrong.
ben_vulpes: justJanne: there are simply too many people on this planet
justJanne: Nope.
justJanne: Currently the food production of the world could support 10 billion people.
justJanne: But about 40% of the produced food is wasted.
ben_vulpes: were it all dispersed evenly across everyone, rather than proportionately to their ability to pay.
trinque: "at this rate of emptying the tank we could support infinite trucks"
justJanne: Not really.
ben_vulpes: suuuure, if all the food were spread really thinly across the whole population base, we could all live on gruel!
williamdunne: Waste is a fact, there is no real way around it
ben_vulpes: this contradiction routine wears thin, justJanne.
williamdunne: We could have more people if people wanted to fuck ugly chicks
williamdunne: But they don't
justJanne: I am saying: just the food you let go to waste would be enough to feed the starving people in Africa.
trinque: justJanne: bringing things places costs money
ben_vulpes: i literally give zero shits about starving people in africa.
justJanne: And that's the issue what's wrong with this world.
justJanne: Or rather, how to get wars.
ben_vulpes: show me how to save my wot from impending doom, and i'll give a shit.
ben_vulpes: but saving randos on another continent? idgaf.
williamdunne: Africa might actually stand a chance of doing something if it weren't for various restrictions placed by EU, USG and co
justJanne: True.
williamdunne: Feeding them is useless
trinque: justJanne: does europe now think it is "beyond" war?
ben_vulpes: "war is interested in you"
justJanne: War might be interested in Europe, as an entity
justJanne: But the wars inside of EU are history.
justJanne: For the first time in the past 3000 years we have no wars between EU countries.
ben_vulpes: bwahaha
trinque: fascinating...
ben_vulpes: for this brief period
trinque: does germany own the EU politically now?
justJanne: Nah.
trinque: justJanne: you're german right?
justJanne: The EU council has actually no say.
trinque: whoever has money has say
justJanne: The power is in the commission and the parliament
ben_vulpes: heh, cute
ben_vulpes: not those who buy the votes. no never that.
justJanne: You can't pass a law without either bribing half of them,
justJanne: Or changing the constitution first.
ben_vulpes: in what world are all of the politicians in any situation not wholly owned by capital?
ben_vulpes: this Janne babe's doing a number on the chan, smack in the middle of the keymageddon.
williamdunne: A magic world without capital
justJanne: The EU commissioners, albeit getting lobbied to by many companies to pass TTIP just leaked all secret treaties they are working on.
williamdunne: TTIP seems like an interesting idea, IMO
justJanne: They might be corrupt, but they aren't that corrupt.
williamdunne: Keep governments liable for damages
ben_vulpes: !rate justJanne -1 some girl with notions
assbot: Request successful, get your OTP: http://w.b-a.link/otp/b29f6c168dbf9900
justJanne: We've seen what happened before.
justJanne: Romania reduced subsidies,
justJanne: And had to pay 250 million in damages.
justJanne: Per suing company.
justJanne: Subsidies can't be what you want, right?
williamdunne admittedly only read about the "er mer gerd evul cerperatshuns rapin guv"

assbot: Successfully added a rating of -1 for justJanne with note: some girl with notions
williamdunne: Don't want subsidies
williamdunne: Don't want taxes
williamdunne: Don't want gov
justJanne: Then you should be against TTIP
justJanne: Because it forces governments to keep subsidies, or increase them.
justJanne: It also leads to restrictions for some companies.
justJanne: And adds European IP law in the US, and US IP law in Europe.
justJanne: So no, you can't produce cheese and call it Gouda or Cheddar in the US anymore.
justJanne: Ad that's copyrighted.
justJanne: TTIP is bad for almost everyone.
williamdunne: Don't want IP
williamdunne: I just like the idea of suing government, wasn't aware that you could sue for removed subsidies
justJanne: Then you don't want TTIP
justJanne: You should read the treaty.
williamdunne: I should, I'll do that later
williamdunne: Although in this case I like subsidies, I change my mind
trinque: what I do want is other people signing contracts on my behalf.
trinque: dictating terms to me
trinque: this is freedom
justJanne: Nah.
trinque: yes.
williamdunne: ^ +1, trinque you want my GPG key?
trinque: you're too young to have ever had anything
justJanne: Freedom is when you'd get to vote on it.
trinque: williamdunne: for what
williamdunne: trinque: Signing contracts on my behalf
ben_vulpes: i'm looking forward to ttip draining medicaid for hilaribad training proggys
trinque: williamdunne: oh, I do not
justJanne: Without even the ability to vote on this, TTIP is unconstitutional.
williamdunne: Voting ain't freedom
justJanne: Nah.
justJanne: But without voting there is 0 freedom.
ben_vulpes: kakobrekla: how long do i have to wait for assbot to accept and act on my raitings?
williamdunne: Voting arguably reduces freedom
justJanne: Voting makes it 50% freedom, as at least 50% of the people gets their choice.
ben_vulpes: ratings*
justJanne: Without voting, there is 0 freedom
trinque: justJanne: 435/320mil are going to rubber stamp this thing and make me ok with it?
williamdunne: In that case with voting there is -1 freedom
williamdunne: It gives the idea of legitimacy to bad things
justJanne: Why?
williamdunne: If that is freedom, so is gangrape
justJanne: Not everything is bad, just because you don't like it.
williamdunne: Subjectively it is
ben_vulpes: but the average of opinions is good, because it includes everyone!1
cazalla: russians need to send more reds to rape german women tbh, fuck this shit
justJanne: But objectively not.
williamdunne: Objectively speaking stealing from people is bad
williamdunne: The fact that there is an organization doing it on your behalf makes it no better
justJanne: There is no stealing.
williamdunne: Regardless if you've got your popular mandate
williamdunne: *of if
justJanne: You do it voluntarily.
ben_vulpes: <williamdunne> Objectively speaking stealing from people is bad << nope, stealing from my enemies is grand.
trinque: justJanne: there is allowing the state to control the definition of money and of ownership.
trinque: the fucking end
justJanne: You could just move to Somalia.
justJanne: No taxes anymore.
justJanne: See?
justJanne: No stealing.
williamdunne: Thats not how this works
justJanne: It's your choice to live in a place with taxes.
williamdunne: No it isn't, I was born here
justJanne: We had that earlier.
ben_vulpes: lol and this is a 19yo girl
justJanne: And you said people deserve to be punished for the actions for their ancestors.
williamdunne: When did I say this?
justJanne: In this case, you deserve to be taxed because your parents were to stupid to move away
trinque: heh
ben_vulpes: and you deserve to be raped for supporting socialism then?
williamdunne: [citation needed]
justJanne: I think trinque was the one saying it?
cazalla: justJanne, hope you get raped by a gang of marauding muslims over there
trinque: I'll take it
williamdunne: Trinque's statements aren't my own, this isn't a government
trinque: yep
justJanne: So, williamdunne, you say people don't deserve to be punished for the actions of their ancestors?
justJanne: So everyone should, after birth, have the same chances?
ben_vulpes: <justJanne> mats: DS9-Star Trek is pretty much real. << aha she thinks scifi's real
justJanne: Why not?
williamdunne: Something can be without being enacted
williamdunne: The difference is the initiation
justJanne: Why should they be punished for their parents poorness?
trinque: justJanne: you use should to leap across things you don't want to have to think about.
ben_vulpes: <justJanne> Why not? << needs some context
trinque: this is nothing bad, just being young and not knowing anything
mircea_popescu: !up referredbyloper
williamdunne: They aren't being punished, they simply are
justJanne: Punishment through inaction is still punishment.
williamdunne: No, it isn't
trinque: you know, if socialists are happy in socialism, why isn't that fine?
trinque: I say sit in it
williamdunne: Because they enforce it on others, if they want to create a commune go for it
ben_vulpes: rot in your poo!
justJanne: I don't know. I have no issues with you guys building a state of anarchy,
trinque: anarchy lol
justJanne: As long as this place can stay the way it is.
williamdunne: You don't really get a choice in what happens
ben_vulpes: and how would you know how this place is, justJanne
mircea_popescu: <justJanne> Currently the food production of the world could support 10 billion people. << that's not the point. sure, food could be produced to feed 10, 100, one trillion. does not mean anyone wants more idiots running around. too many as it is.
justJanne: trinque: you guys said you wanted a place where "no man rules over other men", no taxes, no government, no controls, no streets.
justJanne: That's pretty much anarchy.
trinque: no one speaks for me
mircea_popescu: who said this and where did they say it ?
justJanne: williamdunne said it, for example.
ben_vulpes: <justJanne> trinque: you guys said you wanted a place where "no man rules over other men", no taxes, no government, no controls, no streets. << source or seriously get the fuck out
justJanne: Several others said the same before.
ben_vulpes: williamdunne does not count.
trinque: scam
trinque: ben_vulpes: provacateur!
williamdunne: Once again, my opinions are my own
williamdunne: Something I have said does not apply to others here
mircea_popescu: justJanne you will have to learn to cite.
justJanne: williamdunne Don't want taxes
williamdunne: And I am not a lord
justJanne: williamdunne Don't want gov
ben_vulpes: <justJanne> williamdunne Don't want taxes << so what and whatever
ben_vulpes: kid doesn't matter
mircea_popescu: not merely because to prevail in arguments, but because a mind that's organised without strong sourcing of propositions is windows in a skullbox.
williamdunne: justJanne: Once again, you're quoting me
ben_vulpes: can't keep an irc bot up
justJanne: Yes, and I'm arguing with you.
mircea_popescu: aww why so mean!
williamdunne: On that note, scoop will be back later today
williamdunne: for good this time
williamdunne: I swearsies
justJanne: If the others want to join the argument, they have to also measure themselves to your statements.
mircea_popescu: not how this works justJanne
williamdunne: Read the logs
williamdunne: Their positions are all in there
ben_vulpes: williamdunne: better to demonstrate than postulate.
williamdunne: justJanne: You're joining the argument, not the other way around
justJanne: I made yesterday some statements,
justJanne: That were picked out of context and attacked today.
williamdunne: What meanies
trinque: people review the logs and respond; get used to it
justJanne: By people saying they want no subsidies, but TTIP
mircea_popescu: they were taken out of the context you intended them in and placed in the wider context prevailing here.
mircea_popescu: this gives you an opportunity to explain yourself, or to go nuts i guess.
justJanne: I didn't go nuts yet.
mircea_popescu: not yet, no :)
mircea_popescu: incidentally, anyone ever tried nut-aged cheese ?
justJanne: I wonder how you guys actually think your social system will work in reality.
mircea_popescu: ever read anythng on the topic ?
justJanne: Yeah, a friend of mine was an extreme anarchist.
justJanne: So I read and learned a lot about it.
mircea_popescu: woman. your derpy friends are immaterial.
justJanne: Interesting idea, unless it is implemented, within of a dozen generations it often stops working.
mircea_popescu: i've known a bunch of german sluts, i don't go around assuming you're one, right ?
justJanne: Nah.
williamdunne: justJanne: What is implemented? WoT is alive and well
justJanne: But we talked through your topic a bunch of times.
mircea_popescu: yeah i guess time for a reading list.
justJanne: williamdunne: when you'd try to implement this system in reality, as a social system.
williamdunne: We're being social now
williamdunne: It is implemented in reality
ben_vulpes: this is why we must insist on the log-reading, regardless of how cute or female.
justJanne: Especially the "let poor people become poorer" and the "rich become richer" part.
ben_vulpes: neither of which etc etc
mircea_popescu: ben_vulpes also must give people rope to hang with, it's a tandem process.
ben_vulpes: KILL NAO

Lots of fallow fields this year.

ben_vulpes tries to imagine the wealth of nagants bequeathed after a dozen cycles
williamdunne: justJanne: I shared all of your opinions at first, thought MP was a cock etc. I then had the decency to spend ~9 months reading logs and blogs before speaking
ben_vulpes: honey read logs
ben_vulpes: stop derpin
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo from what i hear a major battle is raging in us agriculture. monsanto vs agrobiz

ben_vulpes: this handle of your'n already burtn

williamdunne: justJanne: Not about it
williamdunne: The blogs here
williamdunne: Scoopbots reading list
mircea_popescu: about something else masquerading as it.
justJanne: And it made me even more convinced it is a great system in theory. Not in reality.
justJanne: No, literally your ideas and statements.
ben_vulpes: <mircea_popescu> ben_vulpes also must give people rope to hang with, it's a tandem process. << maybe next cycle i can refrain
mircea_popescu: you've done what a hacker news reader would do, reading the usg piece instead of my piece and imagining "oh i read about crypto"
mircea_popescu: no, you have not.
justJanne: I even read dozens of logs of the chat before.
mircea_popescu: it doesn't show, somehow.
williamdunne: justJanne: No, you haven't
justJanne: Because I still don't believe it is a good idea.
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: There's always the lover's quarrels with those two. Could just be phosphorous is getting expensive...
mircea_popescu: no, not because of what you believe. because of how you proceed.
justJanne: One can have an opinion different of yours.
williamdunne: No shit
mircea_popescu: actually everyone does, is the amusing thing.
justJanne: mircea_popescu: I didn't start any process.
justJanne: Someone yesterday asked what's so bad about abolishing the Nordic model.
mircea_popescu: justJanne how you proceed means "how you go about it"
justJanne: That's how the whole thing started.
mircea_popescu: the nordic model consists of being lucky, is all.
justJanne: Since then, I'm just defending the current position.

ben_vulpes cowers
justJanne: Ofc I know that shit.
ben_vulpes: <justJanne> If you want total anarchy, go to somalia, they live it. << lol u and somalia
justJanne: Bit that's not the case.
williamdunne: On a similar note, I considered dunne.so and thug.so as alternative to thethug.life
mircea_popescu: what do you mean "it's not the case" ?
ben_vulpes: anyways i got magical tits runnin around i'm off
davout: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=18-05-2015#1137219 <<< volunteer firemen work for the extra cunt
assbot: Logged on 18-05-2015 23:51:02; justJanne: because they are volunteers.
mircea_popescu: davout she's not figured that out yet.
BingoBoingo: <justJanne> Bit that's not the case. << Why do the Greeks and Spaniards work longer hours and yet Krautenvacations are longest vacations?
mircea_popescu: "work" vs work
BingoBoingo: Luck? The benevolent ghost of the Kaiser
justJanne: davout: and what about volunteer librarians? They too?
mircea_popescu: nah, latinos mostly do c style work (figure out the least you can get away with and do less htan that).
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: But it's all calories!
mircea_popescu: justJanne they especially.
justJanne: And volunteer garbage workers?
justJanne: They too?
mircea_popescu: you have any idea what bdsm is ?
trinque: justJanne: you cannot begin to imagine the bore of a planned out life for a male... good fucking god
trinque: seems like it sounds fantastic to you
mircea_popescu: lots of pedos volunteer to be teachers. is scarcely a proof your system works.
davout: justJanne: i don't know lol, you were talking about firemen, guess they're bored or something, but then again, you don't only see volunteer librarians in societies that "work well"
trinque: everyone has their place!
williamdunne: Some in the gutter..
justJanne: True. But it shows that people have the will and ability to do good without pay.
mircea_popescu: trinque you think it's a gender issue ? i dun think she's old enough yet.
davout: justJanne: just because you don't see what folks get out of a deal doesn't mean they're not getting anything
mircea_popescu: justJanne if it's not worth paying for it wasn't that good in the first place.
mircea_popescu: & what d said.
gribble: Error: "what" is not a valid command.
BingoBoingo: <justJanne> davout: and what about volunteer librarians? They too? << I am a librarian. Volunteering without compensation is a violation of my professional ethics.
williamdunne: Interesting, didn't realise ampersand was a gribble thing
davout: BingoBoingo: don't you get to steal a TP roll a day already?
trinque: mircea_popescu: could just as well be something taught to everyone, that risk is terrible and to be avoided
justJanne: BingoBoingo: then you'd have a hard time here, 90% of all librarians are volunteers.
mircea_popescu: gribble's a control sequence slut. CSS
mircea_popescu: trinque and yet she is here.
davout: justJanne: you underestimate the percentage of people that would do anything to merely get some social interaction, aka feel lonely
mircea_popescu: ESPECIALLY in societies that "Work well" by old woman standards.
BingoBoingo: justJanne: Seeing as the library profession here requires a graduate degree it wouldn't be sustainable here.
mircea_popescu: such as "northern countries" w/e that may mean.
justJanne: That's no issue, davout. Such immaterial payments are just what I originally meant.
trinque: so they're all already smashed into obedience, and were born there
mircea_popescu: amusingly, the only place where that model is actually sustainable is... israel.
trinque: so yeah the cell's fine whatever, sun's shining out there today
mircea_popescu: where the old woman doctrine has the nice counterpart of the freely provided fun stuff to do by the palestinians.
mircea_popescu: if those schmucks had any idea about their important place in keeping adlai happy...
mircea_popescu: justJanne do you read french ?
justJanne: Not really, I didn't take it as 3rd or 4th language in school
mircea_popescu: a, that's a pity.

davout: srsly, catching up with log, you guys have been going for like 8 hours now?
mircea_popescu: she's insatiable.
davout: haha
mircea_popescu: we're reduced to taking turns and losing sleep.
justJanne: I have no issue explaining people why removing the Nordic model would be bad.
mircea_popescu: which is thefundamental problem with manhood.
justJanne: I've slept 3h and skipped 2 lectures -.-
mircea_popescu: justJanne so far you've not considered the part where it is already collapsing on its own, bnecause it doesn't work, because it's strictly based on getting lucky.
mircea_popescu: VERY lucky.
BingoBoingo: No wonder the Greeks are taking over the EU's jools
justJanne: True.
mircea_popescu: well, you need a system that works without assumptions.
justJanne: Germany can only have a positive state household by exploiting southern Europe.
justJanne: Which is not a good thing.
mircea_popescu: sure, if you get a shitton of oil when oil's valuable / fish when fish is valuable etc, the "nordic model" is a great way to share it.
mircea_popescu: what do you do when you don't ?
williamdunne: I'm impressed with how quick shes climbing the stats
justJanne: So, like you said, we need to reduce it.
williamdunne: mircea_popescu: Share the dead bodies
mircea_popescu: williamdunne people generally don't wish to accept that nazism was absolutely unavoidable, FOR THIS REASON
justJanne: mircea_popescu: the Nordic model is possible without any valuable resources.
justJanne: As seen in places like Switzerland.
mircea_popescu: purely economic. as hitler actually pointed out : we don't have enough land to exploit. either we fight or "the way of life" has to change.
justJanne: And the solution for that was:
mircea_popescu: justJanne are you kidding ? switzerland is exploiting a resource
justJanne: High tech industry.
williamdunne: mircea_popescu when you're willing to accept that theft is okay, how many more steps is murder? Europe and the US already murders vast quantities of people in Africa
mircea_popescu: banking, mostly. but the us raped them.
justJanne: True.
mircea_popescu: williamdunne "murder". in the immortal words of butch, "if he were a better boxer he'd still be alive"
justJanne: I'll brb
mircea_popescu: justJanne don't die over b-a hon. it's eternal, will be here when you're 69, too.
williamdunne: mircea_popescu: I largely agree, Africa doesn't have much going for it but I do think it stands a chance of doing a helluva lot better without various EU/US laws.
mircea_popescu: williamdunne one of the most amusing things, to me, is that the entire "black domination" subtrend in porn is driven almost entirely by white men.
mircea_popescu: it's like... we're so far ahead of the curve, we will PRETEND to be playing all others' hands, too. because... w/e.
williamdunne: cuckold too
mircea_popescu: certainly.
williamdunne: But do you not think that without various shitty laws preventing any African from doing something other than eating dirt?
williamdunne: i.e AML bullshit, trade sanctions/restrictions etc
mircea_popescu: you vastly overrepresent their reach.
mircea_popescu: pretty much everyone in the civilised world (us and eu excluded) lives fine without ever touching those.
williamdunne: Sure, but they put someone without money at a disadvantage
williamdunne: *further
mircea_popescu: but anyway, to round off the "social marketplace" thing : if one is to reclassify slave labour as "voluntaryism", which is undoubtedly erroneous but nevertheless coherent with the presupositions proposed, then sure, i am a champion of "the northern model"
williamdunne: Don't think we all should be equal in fairyland but creating additional barriers is about the equivalent of kicking a man while he is down
mircea_popescu: williamdunne someone without money has the disadvantage of not what to spend and the advantage of not having what to protect.
mircea_popescu: you ever play cards ?
williamdunne: Only in the drunken manner, not the competitive
mircea_popescu: mkay. so take poker. a very simple description of poker is that you can either play hooker or bluffer. to play hooker you need card superiority, and try to trick your opponent into paying.
mircea_popescu: to play bluffer you nbeed card inferiority, and try to trick your opponent into folding.
mircea_popescu: now, if one's afore-decided they will be bluffing, a) they won't make very good poker players and b) any hand they get can "put them at a disadvantage".
mircea_popescu: because it's not what they expected / wish to play / etc.
mircea_popescu: why should this matter ? play the fucking hand. you adjust to fit it, not the other way around.
assbot: [MPEX] [S.MPOE] 81200 @ 0.00028126 = 22.8383 BTC [-] {2}
williamdunne: In this case its more like the bluffer having to play with a different set of superiority rules
mircea_popescu: how would that work ? does being rich change thermodynamics or something ?
mircea_popescu: rich man's bridge will collapse just like poor man's bridge will.
mircea_popescu: but yes, the set of rules that control the game are different for hookers and bluffers. for hookers, the rules that control are "A > K > Q" etc.
mircea_popescu: for bluffers, "you don't get to see my cards if you fold"
mircea_popescu: so yes, different. necessarily so.
williamdunne: Sure, but I don't think it's a very controversial idea that various rules such as the AML set put entire regions of people at a disadvantage
mircea_popescu: depends in what terms.
mircea_popescu: obviously, if you refuse to trade with putin, this puts "putin as seen through our trade with him" at a disadvantage.
mircea_popescu: but then putin turns around, alligns with china economically in exchange for support for his "regions of eurasia" political model
mircea_popescu: and you're well fucked.
williamdunne: If I want to start a business in the UK, I can pretty easily sell my product wherever the fuck I want. Banks are willing to work with me, that will be fine. If I was from random-istan not so much
mircea_popescu: or, alternatively, you discontinue support for israel and so the saudis no longer have what to fear so they dump your alliance.
mircea_popescu: no, you can't.
mircea_popescu: try this.
mircea_popescu: you can't sell in randomistan anymore than randomistan can sell in the uk.
williamdunne: Well, various African shitholes don't help themselves and won't allow foreigners to open accounts
williamdunne: But this is their own fault
mircea_popescu: but you see how this is entirely you calling things names ?
williamdunne: mircea_popescu: Well yes, thats what I'm talking about but the reverse
mircea_popescu: from their pov it's backwards.
mircea_popescu: "oh, that's because uk shithole won't help itself and won't allow foreigners to whatever"
mircea_popescu: why do you think the empire's been going to shit for a century ?
williamdunne: Okay I see what you mean, but the UK needs it less
mircea_popescu: africa at least is more or less where it was in 1880.
mircea_popescu: the uk... god help it. no country in memory sunk as bad as they have.
mircea_popescu: germany's pretty much recovered, the uk will never recover.
williamdunne: Probably, then again we are largely responsible for modern socialism, so what do you expect?
williamdunne: London subsidises the rest of the country anyway
mircea_popescu: i dun expect, just putting things in perspective :)
williamdunne: Well, that was more directed at an onlooker
williamdunne: rather than you
williamdunne: But yeah
mircea_popescu: yeah they do, lmao, which is outright ridiculous. all good things are supposed to flow TO the city, not from it.
mircea_popescu: and even WITH all that huge expenditure, scotland wants more and nearly seceded.
mircea_popescu: which was one of the lulziest things i saw that year.
williamdunne: Precisely, I've been ranting far too often recently about how London should tell the rest of the UK to fuck off
williamdunne: I hoped they would do it
williamdunne: Remove one of the parasites
mircea_popescu: well, it can't. because the one remaining hanging nail on the historical uk is the coupla nuke subs the us allows them to keep
mircea_popescu: and they're in glasgow.
mircea_popescu: just pay the dizzy sluts more :D
mircea_popescu: which you know... scotland's going to oh so judiciously use
williamdunne: I would imagine that they'd be moved to Plymouth or Bristol or summin
mircea_popescu: btw, you familiar with the hilarious history of the scottish new world settlement thing ?
williamdunne: Nope, shall I have a google?
mircea_popescu: by all means.
mircea_popescu: top keks in there.
mircea_popescu: "darien scheme"
justJanne: Meh.
justJanne: I hope the UK leaves the EU.
justJanne: It would finally kill their economy
mircea_popescu: if they leave the eu they join the us.
justJanne: As their economy right now is "European companies open an Ltd in London"
williamdunne: "Returning to Edinburgh, the Company of Scotland for Trading to Africa raised £400,000 sterling in a few weeks (equivalent to roughly £46 million today),[b] with investments from every level of society, and totaling about a fifth of the wealth of Scotland.[7][8] It was, for Scotland, a massive amount of capital.[9]"
mircea_popescu: uk as an independent state is about as ludicrous today as the kingdom of scotland was in 1715
williamdunne: justJanne: London actually matters
williamdunne: justJanne: Rest of the UK... not so much
justJanne: That's noticeable.
williamdunne: But it likely won't matter nearly as much outside of EU
mircea_popescu: only matters because it's a relative tax heaven from the patently insane french (and german) communists.
mircea_popescu: 50% my foot.
justJanne: Outside of London, the average waiting time for an ambulance is 4 hours.
justJanne: Exactly.
williamdunne: Currently if you set up a financial company in the EU, the standard procedure is London
justJanne: Wait until the UK leaves, and their tax-haven-economy breaks down.
mircea_popescu: justJanne you know i pay 3% in romania.
mircea_popescu: also eu member.
justJanne: Yes.
justJanne: See?
mircea_popescu: there is NEVER going to be a way for the bs taxation of socialists to be enforced. ever.
justJanne: The tax haven will move to Romania, or Liechtenstein.
justJanne: But London will be piss poor.
williamdunne: mircea_popescu: Wrote another article about that the other day, not too good though
williamdunne: justJanne: Yes, I agree if it leaves the EU
williamdunne: Gibraltar might be good
williamdunne: I could imagine a fair amount moving there
justJanne: Gibraltar is UK, would also leave.
mircea_popescu: might just as well move here.
justJanne: I hope the UK leaves the EU.
mircea_popescu: b,tmsro~ only charges 0.1% after all.
justJanne: So the Brits see the shit Cameron is doing.
williamdunne: justJanne: It could probably work its way in there either way, IoM for example is not EU dependent
williamdunne: justJanne: We can choose between Cameron or Labour, at least Cameron doesn't want to remove our main advantage.. being a tax haven
justJanne: Yup. FPTP sucks.
williamdunne: Proportional representation sucks worse
williamdunne: Thats how you get communists
justJanne: And?
justJanne: You also get right-wingers,
williamdunne: And I like the current availability of toilet paper
justJanne: Liberals, and communists.
justJanne: At the same time.
williamdunne: My hand might be as soft as loo roll, but its not too hygienic
justJanne: At least parliament debates are fun with all of them at once.
mircea_popescu: she has a point there.
mircea_popescu: that's how the shoe incidents happen
williamdunne: Indeed
justJanne: And more democratic, cause the government won't risk ignoring the 7% people who voted liberals, nor the 7% who voted communist, as if they'd ignore them, those parties would just start a fight in Parliament.
williamdunne: The problem is the UK is mostly shit, as we have discussed. And the shit areas would be far more likely to vote Communist
assbot: [MPEX] [S.MPOE] 95396 @ 0.00027971 = 26.6832 BTC [-]
williamdunne: justJanne: Ignoring is the right action
justJanne: Nah.
mircea_popescu: depends which %.
justJanne: Let liberals and communists fight in parliament.
mircea_popescu: 99% of the 1%s you can ignore. the other 1%...
justJanne: The winner of the box fight gets to make a paw.
justJanne: *law
trinque: so you get an incomprehensible society
mircea_popescu: justJanne that there is an apparent need for new laws already invalidates the entire proposition of having a state in the first place.
mircea_popescu: either come up with a contract and stick to it, or go home.
justJanne: mircea_popescu: not really — most of the laws are adapting existing situations.
mircea_popescu: im not going for these ARM bankruptcy mortgage deals.
justJanne: Yes?
mircea_popescu: either you have the whole contract written down, or i'm not signing.
mircea_popescu: and you don't get to have a state.
mircea_popescu: no parliament has the authority to make new law. ever.
justJanne: Again, if you want, you can move out.
mircea_popescu: no, you move out.
justJanne: Unless the majority is for a law.
williamdunne: If you don't move out of Germany I will rape you
mircea_popescu: i don't care if it's unanimity.
mircea_popescu: you're taking your stupid shit to somewhere not near me.
justJanne: Then the minority can decide if they want to move out or accept it.
mircea_popescu: the majority can make sense or get lost.
justJanne: So start a rebellion.
williamdunne: In which case you get shot
mircea_popescu: and here we are.
justJanne: We'll see how it works out. Hint: it won't.
mircea_popescu: i've been in open rebellion for years now.
justJanne: Meh.
mircea_popescu: works just fine.,
mircea_popescu: and if it doesn't, fuckall and i dun care.
justJanne: Open rebellion?
justJanne: So, you don't pay taxes or anything?
williamdunne: Public in other words
justJanne: Or do you support the parliament that, according to you, never should make new laws?
williamdunne: He pays taxes to the most serene republic IIRC
williamdunne: And then GPG contracts
williamdunne: Kinda explains the no-laws thing
justJanne: Ah, that kind of "I question your authority" letter.
mircea_popescu: but anyway : i, personally, pay no taxes. agents i own pay taxes in the jurisdictions i've incorporated them in, as you'd expect.
mircea_popescu: which is what the deal is.
mircea_popescu: and if the deal changes, they dissolve an' that's that.
justJanne: So, are you using roads? Water supply?
williamdunne: Pisses in rivers
mircea_popescu: i am buying access to anything i feel like.
justJanne: Do you use any public roads?
justJanne: I ask again.
mircea_popescu: certainly.
justJanne: Then you are committing theft.
mircea_popescu: according to whom ?
justJanne: As you stated before you aren't paying for them.
williamdunne: Retard
mircea_popescu: are you commiting theft when those volunteer firemen come put your hair out ?
williamdunne: "Who will build the roads!11"
mircea_popescu: but you were extolling the virtues of not paying for their work a moment ago.
justJanne: But the roads in the country you live in are for you to use, in return you pay taxes.
williamdunne: If private companies can't build roads, they shouldn't exist
mircea_popescu: i don't recall signing this deal.
williamdunne: The state removed the market for them
justJanne: Ofc private companies can build roads.
justJanne: They do all the time.
williamdunne: Ok, well state enforced monopoly doesn't justify theft, no more than my ejaculate justifies rape
mircea_popescu: the notion that some govt owns the roads, seriously...
justJanne: A danish private company just builds a tunnel to Germany right now.
mircea_popescu: listen, is merkel paying you for using the public space ?
williamdunne: justJanne: Right, this is the point. We didn't choose for Gov to build roads and would pay tolls if owned by private companies
justJanne: See?
williamdunne: Well, I would
justJanne: Taxes are just tolls, too.
williamdunne: No, they aren't
justJanne: Yes.
mircea_popescu: GOTTA SIGN A DEAL!11
mircea_popescu: you don't get to foist some random "law" on me.
justJanne: There are implicit deals.
mircea_popescu: you come up with a deal, if i agree you get away with it.
justJanne: Like ToS.
mircea_popescu: no such thing.
williamdunne: I click "I agree to the ToS"
justJanne: Not always.
assbot: [MPEX] [S.MPOE] 19050 @ 0.00029061 = 5.5361 BTC [+]
williamdunne: I don't click "I agree to give up 40% of my income"
mircea_popescu: there.is.no.such.thing.as."implicit".deals.
justJanne: Did you click "I agree to Freenode"'s ToS, ever?
williamdunne: I drive onto a tollroad, pay them for that
justJanne: And still you are subject to them.
mircea_popescu: justJanne listen, you agree women that dress sluttily should be fucked byu whoever feels like ?
mircea_popescu: because hey, implicit deal.
mircea_popescu: they don't want the cock, they shouldn't have clicked the short skirt tos.
justJanne: Oh, THAT argument again.
mircea_popescu: we had it befoar ?
justJanne: Your argument is retarded.
williamdunne: Comparing freenode to government is a little ridiculous, don't you think?
justJanne: Please try to find another one.
mircea_popescu: looky : there are no implicit deals. ever.
justJanne: williamdunne: not really.
williamdunne: justJanne: yes, really
justJanne: How?
williamdunne: Freenode asks for nothing from me
justJanne: Yet.
williamdunne: And if they do I will move
williamdunne: If the deal changes..
justJanne: See?
williamdunne: But moving from freenode is a click
williamdunne: Not a flight, not leaving family etc
justJanne: Same with countries. If the deal changes, you can move.
williamdunne: These two things are not the same
justJanne: Moving from Freenode isn't easy either.
williamdunne: Yes it is
mircea_popescu: whoever changes the deal moves.
mircea_popescu: not he who stayed true.
justJanne: You have to convince all your peers to move, too
mircea_popescu: government wants to change the rules, IT HAS TO MOVE.
justJanne: All your friends, channels, etc.
justJanne: Or leave them behind.
williamdunne: I have to convince people to make some clicks, not hard if freenode implements a tax
justJanne: depends.
justJanne: Look at whatsapp.
justJanne: They introduced a "tax"
justJanne: And people still stayed there.
justJanne: It's a similar situation.
williamdunne: Very different userbase
trinque: the fuck whatsapp is a government now
trinque: stahhhhhp
williamdunne: Apparently
mircea_popescu: the fact that someone did something stupid does not make the stupid thing right.
justJanne: You want governments to sign contracts with all citizen, what's more realistic?
williamdunne: Apparently moving IRC servers and tos are equivalent to the violent rule of gov
mircea_popescu: and what "the people" do or don't do is no basis for either law or sense.
mircea_popescu: justJanne it's not a matter of "realistic"
justJanne: It is the only basis.
mircea_popescu: according to whom ?
justJanne: According to every not-retarded politician, ever?
mircea_popescu: the only realistic thing is to eat raw meat and dress in dead children.
mircea_popescu: nutty bs. who ever asked any politician anything for crying out loud.
justJanne: All politicians who said the opposite ended up as dictators.
williamdunne: mm kinda

mircea_popescu: what are you, going through the non sequitur book in order ?
justJanne: Guys, please take some college courses in economy, politics, and philosophy.
mircea_popescu: "ima call anyone that doesn't promote socialism a dictator and then say that not being socialist makes dictators"
mircea_popescu: sure, it does. well done.
mircea_popescu: might as well have the same argument about believing in christ and move to 1555 to be a nun.
williamdunne: I want no leaders = dictator
justJanne: It's hard to argue with you when you ask the same questions over and over again, and just goalpost all he time
davout: justJanne: you sure have lots of stamina points
williamdunne: davout: she's burning mana for the energy regen spell
mircea_popescu: justJanne the reason it is hard to argue is because the list of places where your ideas fail is about eighteen entries long by now, and you're not directly interested in examining the holes and fixing your head, but instead would prefer us to somehow accept the nonsense.
mircea_popescu: try the other tack, it'll go a lot easier.
justJanne: There are holes, but the result still works better than any alternative.
justJanne: Again, I have no issue with your system.
justJanne: If you want, you can try it as a state.
justJanne: Declare independency, make your own laws.
williamdunne: We're already doing so
williamdunne: *Have done
mircea_popescu: this is kinda old by now, but yes.
justJanne: We'll see in 30 years how it ends.
williamdunne: I say we, I'm not involved
mircea_popescu: if there's still a germany in 30 years, it may see how itshould behave and copy us, yes.
mircea_popescu: if there isn't, a well. you're lucky enough to have come in early.
justJanne: In other news,
williamdunne: justJanne: Declaration of sovereignty
justJanne: Denmark stopped printing cash last week.
mircea_popescu: williamdunne quick : what's the difference between "Declaration of sovereignty" and "Declaration of independence" ?
justJanne: From 2017 on, Denmark plans to do everything via digital money transfers.
trinque: where's danielpbarron, it's the mark of the beast
justJanne: No matter how, or using what currency.
williamdunne: mircea_popescu: No clue, tbh
mircea_popescu: the latter recognises the sovereignty of the entity it secedes from. the former does not.
williamdunne: Ah, well I prefer the former in this case then
mircea_popescu: which is how it got to be htere.
mircea_popescu: justJanne you know i use cash almost exclusively ?
mircea_popescu: funny to do here, too, a brick is worth like 800 bucks or so.
davout: justJanne: btw, how did you end up here?
williamdunne: mircea_popescu: Wondered, can you not get a lot more for your money if you pay with USD? Or would that get you shot?
justJanne: davout: discussion about RSA, tbh.
mircea_popescu: williamdunne official dollar is 8.6 pesos, unoficcial like 13.
mircea_popescu: amusingly enough, they pay like 10% less for 20 dollar bills. only want 100s.
mircea_popescu: which iirc don't even exist in the us.
williamdunne: Wait what?
williamdunne: Are they official mintage or..?
williamdunne: Sorta like the £1,000,000 note in the UK I guess
justJanne: mircea_popescu: in Denmark, almost all transfers are digital anyway. As the official system is cheaper, faster, and easier than bitcoin even.
BingoBoingo: <mircea_popescu> which iirc don't even exist in the us. << 100's still exist here
mircea_popescu: and reported. i would never use it.
williamdunne: justJanne: well ofc
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo forcing a point.
williamdunne: justJanne: bitcoin isn't that cheap or fast
williamdunne: Well, it is currently pretty cheap and fast
williamdunne: But it shouldn't be compared to centralized systems
mircea_popescu: the idea that i'd allow a third party to look into my accounts... what the fuck is this, the future ?
williamdunne: Thats just the derpery of governments
BingoBoingo: It prolly won't bee too long before they bring back 100,000 bills with the Woodrow Wilson and everything
justJanne: They aren't really centralized either.
justJanne: More like a web of hundreds of central points
mircea_popescu: that's centralized.
justJanne: While bitcoin has millions of nodes.
williamdunne: Central bank decentralized now?
justJanne: Denmark has no digital central bank — the money flows from node to node.
trinque: the point is the fucking records
justJanne: I can send money to another merchant without it ever touching a bank
trinque: not how many buildings they have
mircea_popescu: i don't think you understand what centralized-decentralized mean.
justJanne: Just because my money is only a cryptographic signature on my credit card.
williamdunne: justJanne: How is current issuance handled then? Banks trusted to issue their authorised balance?
williamdunne: I know in the UK it works with central bank reserve/payment accounts
williamdunne: Which all settlement systems are built on top of
justJanne: Kinda.
justJanne: The thing is, the reason why German debit cards don't work in any other place,
williamdunne: Just another meta layer
justJanne: Is because they store the money as a cryptographically signed transaction history on the card.
trinque: how about less this bullshit and more on the definition of centralized vs decentralized
mircea_popescu: im really curious what'll come of this.
mircea_popescu: clever chick with a head fulla stupid meets #b-a. anyone care to bet on the linecount total ?
trinque: been all day
mircea_popescu: what is it, 1k by now ?
mircea_popescu: 545. nevertheless a record i think ?
williamdunne: From the frequency of messages don't think she even read the GPG contracts etc, let alone historical logs
justJanne: Hmm.
justJanne: I wonder how much calculation power it would take to break 4096-bit RSA.
mircea_popescu: williamdunne skimming, it's how intelligent kids end up coping with school.
mircea_popescu: horrible habit, but what are yo ugoing to do.
mircea_popescu: can't shoot the retards amirite.
williamdunne: I've been trying to break that habit, think I'm about there
justJanne: I mean, a startup in my city sells FPGA clusters that can be used for that (or for crypto mining), and the NSA bought 256 clusters, each should be enough to break AES256 in 2 weeks.
trinque: we're not gonna get a definition of centralized/decentralized
justJanne: decentralized is a system where all nodes are equal.
williamdunne: Too much effort for her to google
justJanne: It's as easy as that.
mircea_popescu: it's not, no.
justJanne: Yes, it is.
williamdunne: Are all nodes in bitcoin equal? News to me
mircea_popescu: justJanne da fuck do you mean "yes it is".
assbot: [MPEX] [S.MPOE] 36164 @ 0.00027707 = 10.02 BTC [-]
mircea_popescu: what do you take yourself for, some sort of equal or something ?
justJanne: Any homogenous graph is decentralized.
mircea_popescu: that's true for graphs.
justJanne: Every web of nodes is just a graph.
mircea_popescu: but in graph theory, decentralized is a term of art.
mircea_popescu: no, it's not. because the map is not the territory.
justJanne: A web of nodes is a graph, as a graph, per definition, is just a set of nodes, and a set of relations between nodes.
mircea_popescu: do you understand what "the map is not the territory" means ?
trinque: what's the command structure of the society within which your decentralized banks operate?
justJanne: The banks aren't either fully centralized, nor fully decentralized. Anyone can just open a bank, the question is if other banks will accept money from your customers as payment, as they don't know if they can trust your cryptographic signature.
trinque: the fuck is this where they're both or neither
williamdunne: "anyone can just open a bank" < or rly?
justJanne: It's the same as minimum and smallest, two completely different definitions.
mircea_popescu: so what is "Danmarks Nationalbank" then ?
justJanne: I'm currently talking about northern Germany, as I don't know the internals of Denmark, it's the same, though.
justJanne: There is a difference between the printed money and and the way digital money works.
trinque: the whole EU sounds like what they do in portland tech companies
trinque: where everyone smiles and no one's like, your boss, man
justJanne: GeldKarte is one example.
mircea_popescu: you don't know but it's the same ?
justJanne: Person A can pay person B, person B can pay person C
trinque: the banks are totally decentralized because they've got various sub-departments of some huge central authority
justJanne: All this while they are completely offline.
mircea_popescu: trinque depends who's describing it ya know ?
justJanne: Okay, again, please listen.
trinque: of course
trinque: mircea_popescu: ^
justJanne: Imagine we have 3 people, completely offline.
justJanne: A pays person B money.
justJanne: Person B pays person C money.
justJanne: (All through GeldKarte)
mircea_popescu: which is offline throughout.
justJanne: yes.
justJanne: Person C now goes online and can spend the money.
mircea_popescu: what happens in the following scenario :
justJanne: You can transfer money offline, and it is valid.
mircea_popescu: b has no money. a gives him 100 moneys. b sends 100 money to C and 100 money to D.
mircea_popescu: can c and d each now spend 100 ?
mircea_popescu: because ?
justJanne: They can't spend anything, as the last two statements are invalid.
justJanne: You have at the beginning 0 money.
mircea_popescu: show, don't tell.
williamdunne: Thats pretty impractical
justJanne: Your card stores a list of cryptographically signed money from the sender.
justJanne: So, I send you money, by sending you a cryptographically signed info "I sent you n money"
mircea_popescu: justJanne yes. so i copy that list and send money to 500 people
justJanne: You can't.
mircea_popescu: because why not ?
justJanne: Copying is prevented through unique salts for each transaction.
mircea_popescu: if i can send money to either a or b
mircea_popescu: then necessarily i can send to both. so i do. what now.
punkman: justJanne: I mean, a startup in my city sells FPGA clusters that can be used for that (or for crypto mining), and the NSA bought 256 clusters, each should be enough to break AES256 in 2 weeks. << lolwut
justJanne: Then the last person receiving it won't be able to use it.
mircea_popescu: i'll tell you what now : whoever gets first online spends it.
williamdunne: justJanne: Do you have a paper or something for this?
punkman: GeldKarte > "This system is protected against double-spending by not allowing the user to read the keys from their smart card."
mircea_popescu: the other fails, the bank gets alerted that this was copied and the police shows up
mircea_popescu: denmark has got a stupid, centralist bitcoin.
justJanne: Yup.
justJanne: It existed 10 years before bitcoin, though.
mircea_popescu: it will never work. the only reason its not being raped wide open is because atm nobody gives a shit about swine country.
williamdunne: Nevermind, I'll ignore the paper that is derpy
assbot: [MPEX] [S.MPOE] 69050 @ 0.0002832 = 19.555 BTC [+] {2}
williamdunne: Can you use this card for luxury purchases?
punkman: " Funds cannot move freely within the system. They can move from a bank account (or cash) to a Geldkarte. From there, they can only be moved to a merchant's card and from the merchant's card, they can only go to the merchant's bank account."
mircea_popescu: punkman because this can be done now.
justJanne: that's an old article then.
williamdunne: i.e cars, jewellery etc
justJanne: Or it was a different system.
justJanne: Because we have so many different debit card companies >_>
mircea_popescu: justJanne odds are you just had a superificial understanding of it.
williamdunne: Which surely rely on banks
justJanne: GeldKarte, EC Karte, etc.
justJanne: so, williamdunne, your question:
mircea_popescu: anyway, denmark is probably the best example of usistan. "The worlds largest public sector (30% of the entire workforce on a full-time basis) is financed by the world's highest taxes."
assbot: [MPEX] [S.MPOE] 28350 @ 0.00028957 = 8.2093 BTC [+]
justJanne: The company is SciEngines GmbH (they have a Wikipedia article)
trinque: man... justJanne you have recalibrated me for tolerating canadians
justJanne: mircea_popescu: the Nordics still pay about the same taxes as the US, but you get free healthcare, free college, welfare, and an almost unregulated market.
justJanne: You pay like 6% more.
mircea_popescu: justJanne how much have you travelled ? outside of the eu i mean
justJanne: Definitely worth it.
justJanne: I haven't travelled outside EU yet. Never had the money to do so.
justJanne: Parents aren't exactly rich xD
mircea_popescu: aha. well the thing is, the books you read are kinda deliberately written so as to make you think you're in the best possible place.
mircea_popescu: what are you doing this summer ?
justJanne: (And no, without free college I couldn't go to university.)
justJanne: This summer? I'll work on several open source projects, like the IRC client I use right now.
mircea_popescu: ben_vulpes trinque hey lot, if i buy her plane tickets do you show her portland ? a week or so ?
mircea_popescu: i don't imagine she takes up much space.
trinque: ha sure why not
mircea_popescu: justJanne you wanna go ?
justJanne: Nah thanks, don't wanna go into a country where anyone can be declared terrorist and stripped of their rights
williamdunne: justJanne: Don't need university
trinque: portland would be too capitalist for her
justJanne: (Yes, the laws in Germany apply to all "people", not just citizens)
trinque: there should be a lot less citizens.
justJanne: Already happening.
justJanne: Germany has a child per family rate of 1.4
mircea_popescu: interesting.
justJanne: So far below the replacement rate of 2.25
justJanne: All the Nordics have 1.4, too
mircea_popescu: clearly the system works and is sustainable.
justJanne: Automatically shrinking the population to a point where it is sustainable.
mircea_popescu: perhaps.
williamdunne: Yes, plenty of children to pay for their communist parents
trinque: I don't buy it
mircea_popescu: or to a point where the muslims can just come in and rape you stupid lot into shape.,
mircea_popescu: either way
justJanne: They are already here.
justJanne: 19% of the population are foreigners and migrants
mircea_popescu: how's the female circumcision factor ?
justJanne: Approx 0
justJanne: You don't get it without a degree and a guarantee for a job, and the circumcised people rarely have the qualifications anyway
justJanne: *don't get in
assbot: [MPEX] [S.MPOE] 55299 @ 0.00028957 = 16.0129 BTC [+]
mircea_popescu: Germany is home to at least 24,000 women from African countries who've undergone female circumcision (as reported by DW in 2004)
mircea_popescu: prolly 100k by now ?
chetty: ouch, you makes me squirm
justJanne: Not really.
justJanne: Almost no immigration since then.
justJanne: The largest wave of immigration was in the 70s and 80s
justJanne: So, 24 thousand immigrants are mutilated.
justJanne: And we pay them free healthcare to fix it.
williamdunne: How do you fix it?
mircea_popescu: o you're gonna fix it ?
mircea_popescu: damn i like the nordic model more and more
mircea_popescu: williamdunne shut up they're fixing it.
justJanne: That's no a problem.
williamdunne: Sorry Charles about hacking your head off, I'll stitch it back on in just a jiffy! Universal healthcare ftw
mircea_popescu: chetty imagine, that's like a quarter ton of bits ?
justJanne: Ofc it is shit.
mircea_popescu: justJanne maybe it's good for you, how do you know ?
mircea_popescu: i thought all people should have equal chances.
justJanne: But again, those are immigrants — they moved here decades after they were mutilated.
mircea_popescu: and you know this the same way it was 0, right ?
justJanne: But I know this because your quote and your article say it.
justJanne: People, immigrants, from African countries, who got mutilated and then moved here
justJanne: So no, it's not a German issue. We still try to do our best to fix the mistakes someone else did.
davout: the logs are soon going to be harder to catch up on than the very fucking blockchain
williamdunne: Have you looked at name-first log synchronization?
mircea_popescu: davout we just made larger logblocks, how you like it ?
mircea_popescu: justJanne didn't you say all people should be equal ?
davout: well, adoption is on the rise, so what can i say
mircea_popescu: how are these migrants any worse than you ?
mircea_popescu: maybe you should try the mutilation thing.
williamdunne: Socialism to me does seem a lot like the "no kid left behind" school bullshit that appeals to the lowest common denominator and lowers the median
justJanne: You got it wrong.
mircea_popescu: in any case the poor girls without the bits can't grow them back up, so in order for everyone to have equal chances at an orgasm, off with your clit!
justJanne: It lowers the average, but increases the median
mircea_popescu: and because the government can alter the deal, here, it's a new law now.
mircea_popescu: enjoy socialism!
williamdunne: justJanne: Median is average
justJanne: Average is the sum divided by the amount.
mircea_popescu: she has a point. it does lower the average but increase the median
mircea_popescu: which is EXACTLY what the problem is.
justJanne: Median is the middle person.
mircea_popescu: places with high medians are places not worth living in.
justJanne: That's what you think.
mircea_popescu: the entire point of life is diferentiation from the median.
mircea_popescu: of course it is, that's why i say it.
justJanne: I think places with low median aren't worth living in.
mircea_popescu: the difference being that this isn't what you think,
mircea_popescu: just what you've been told to think.
justJanne: williamdunne: please take stochastics 101 at a university,
justJanne: You'll know what mean and average are.
mircea_popescu: stochastics 101 o.O ?!
mircea_popescu: this actually is a thing ?!
williamdunne: Sounds like a musician "Stoch"
justJanne: Introduction into stochastic, yeah.
williamdunne: And he's German most likely
williamdunne: So it fits
justJanne: Theoretical statistics.
mircea_popescu: but this in physics ? as in, stochastics mechanics ?
williamdunne: "Did you see Stoch's latest concert? It was Stochastic!"
mircea_popescu: so statistics 101 ?
justJanne: Statistics is different.
mircea_popescu: can you link the course ?
justJanne: I'm on mobile, sadly no.
justJanne: Also, it would be in German anyway.
assbot: 0 results for 'kiel' : http://s.b-a.link/?q=kiel
mircea_popescu: you may not speak french, but i do read german nooblet.
justJanne: Nah.
justJanne: That's a master module.
justJanne: Uni Köln has a nice transcript.
justJanne: The mathematicians in Kiel still refuse to use calculators or computers.
mircea_popescu: i thought you went to kiel.
justJanne: I do.
justJanne: But Kiel's mathematicians refuse to put anything on the public web.
justJanne: You can get it if you are in their intranet, though.
williamdunne: setup a proxy to the intranet
justJanne: They have.
williamdunne: No a public one
justJanne: Nope.
mircea_popescu: what, you want her to end up in aaron schwartz's cell ?
justJanne: As access to the intranet is bound through X.509 to a user account
williamdunne: A university dedicate to not sharing information, not very socialist of them
justJanne: Anyway, we are going way off topic.
williamdunne: Yes, we should be discussing bitcoin assets
davout: justJanne: for like 12 hours now...
justJanne: Not that far.
justJanne: Anyway, why are we still arguing? I said I have no issue with you trying to build your state system, I just don't believe it will last, and you guys spending 14h trying to convince me the system I like most is shit.
mircea_popescu: the problem isn't that we're going "off topic", as there isn't a topic. the problem is that you very badly suck at most verbal and cognitive tasks. but hopefully we've run the gamut by now.
chetty: I havent read the whole log but I am curious, is anyone trying to convince, or just stating facts?
justJanne: Mostly stating facts.
davout: *ahem*
justJanne: Mostly.
mircea_popescu: most of the discussion flows as "comonly held belief 1" "why" "because 2" "why" "because 3" why" "because 1.1" etc
mircea_popescu: anyway, nothing a summer's worth of lurk moar can't fix.
justJanne: The largest issue is that many people discussed with me, each having different opinions.
williamdunne: Thats what happens when you talk to a group of people
mircea_popescu: we suck at being a cult.
justJanne: And combined, these people's opinions would cancel each other our.
justJanne: *out
justJanne: Yes.
trinque: we are all different forces on different vectors and we cancel out?
justJanne: Some people said, before, people should be held responsible for the decisions of their ancestors, they can even be punished for them.
justJanne: Some others said taxes are bad, because you personally aren't responsible for them.
justJanne: Combined, the statements are nuts.
williamdunne: Some people said, before, people should be held responsible for the decisions of their ancestors, they can even be punished for them. <<< who actually said this, I'm curious about the justification
mircea_popescu: justJanne the impression you get comes from you observing what's being said with too broad a brush.
justJanne: williamdunne: it was used as defense against my argument that "children should have equal chances, no matter if their parents are poor or rich"
mircea_popescu: for instance, i didn't say people should be punished for what ancestors did. you conflated two statements : 1) that you can't expect me to pay for the poor behaviour of one's ancestors and 2) that i punish people by what they are rather than they wish to be.
williamdunne: What was the actual answer, because not giving them equal chances is very different
justJanne: Because I said "people aren't responsible for the actions of their ancestors"
mircea_popescu: these have precise and rather subtle meanings, is all.
justJanne: So, people should be held responsible for the actions of their ancestors.
williamdunne: Yeah thats what I expected
mircea_popescu: there's a difference between punishment and responsibility.
justJanne: But they shouldn't.
mircea_popescu: moreover, the situation where you're poor because daddy was a drunk is neither your punishment nor your responsibility.
mircea_popescu: it is, merely, YOUR SITUATION.
mircea_popescu: improve it and that's that.
williamdunne: We're not all equal, but I don't want to make it worse for you
justJanne: Okay, so, mircea_popescu, taxes are the same
mircea_popescu: the same needs two operands.
justJanne: The situation that you live in a place with taxes is neither your punishment nor you'd responsibility.
justJanne: It is, merely, Your situation.
williamdunne: Yes it is
mircea_popescu: i don't live in a place owned by someone else.
williamdunne: Its a punishment
williamdunne: Its an active force
justJanne: How so?
mircea_popescu: what do you mean "how" ?
williamdunne: If you don't pay someone rapes you
justJanne: Where is the difference between having to pay the debts of your parents
williamdunne: If you're poor.. you can't do something, but nothing actually happens
justJanne: And having to pay taxes.
williamdunne: Who says you pay your parents debt?
mircea_popescu: the debts of your parents is a novel development, wasn't discussed before.
justJanne: It is part of the poor debate.
mircea_popescu: apparently it's not.
williamdunne: No it isn't, no one should inherit debt
justJanne: May those debts be monetary, or indirect.
mircea_popescu: you don't get to call any negative number "a debt"
justJanne: williamdunne: and what is with indirect debt?
mircea_popescu: the word has a specific meaning.
williamdunne: What are we calling indirect debt?
justJanne: When your parents are so piss poor you have to work as a child to not starve.
williamdunne: Thats a lack of a think
williamdunne: Debt is a thing you have
williamdunne: Not a lack of a thing
justJanne: Debt is a responsibility of having to pay, yes.
justJanne: But for the person, it is the same.
williamdunne: No, it isn't
mircea_popescu: so a bottle and a penis are, for a flatworm, "the same"
mircea_popescu: doesn't mean you can run around sticking bottles up your ass.
justJanne: Okay, back then.
chetty: <justJanne> When your parents are so piss poor you have to work as a child to not starve.// some might consider that an advantage
justJanne: If you think so.
justJanne: Thing is, of you have to work and can't go to school,
justJanne: You lose something due to the bad choices of your parents.
williamdunne: Did me good
mircea_popescu: justJanne you lose something, gain something else.
justJanne: williamdunne: it shows. It shows very much.
mircea_popescu: that's the way it goes. if you have children, you lose your juvenile figure.
mircea_popescu: if you don't, you don't have children.
justJanne: It's not the same.
justJanne: The question here is:
justJanne: Why is inheriting debts different?
justJanne: You said inheriting debts shouldn't be a thing.
mircea_popescu: because debt flows from a contrat.
justJanne: But inheriting money is okay?
mircea_popescu: and a contract can only be enforced by its parties.
mircea_popescu: what problem do you see with it ?
trinque: also a contract
justJanne: And what about inheriting stocks?
williamdunne: No one enforces inheritance, its not a contract
williamdunne: give it away
williamdunne: justJanne: Stocks with liability?
mircea_popescu: stocks don't carry liability, nor have they ever.
justJanne: Most stocks are a contract saying that you pay money, in return get a part of the profits and the power over a company.
justJanne: But the contract is specifically signed to you.
mircea_popescu: no. stocks are a contract saying that you PAID money,
mircea_popescu: and forevermore get a share of the company.
justJanne: Yes.
williamdunne: derp on my part
justJanne: But the contract is again bound to you.
mircea_popescu: they are negotiable instruments, just like any other.
justJanne: So, the question is, should inheriting these contracts be possible?
mircea_popescu: the contract is not inherited.
mircea_popescu: it is conveyed.
justJanne: And if yes, why are they so different from debt contracts?
williamdunne: Liability
justJanne: And what about inverse debt?
justJanne: You lend someone money. You die.
mircea_popescu perceives the deep, faint marks of ancient saxon legal strictures in the girl's attempt.
justJanne: Can your children force the person to pay?
mircea_popescu: fascinating what cultural nationality turns out to be.
mircea_popescu: justJanne depends how the contract was worded.
mircea_popescu: is it assignable ? have you assigned it to them ?
justJanne: So, then debt is only inheritable in some cases?
mircea_popescu: debt is never inheritable.
justJanne: This creates an issue with williamdunne's comment.
justJanne: Because either contracts are inheritable, or they are not.
williamdunne: justJanne: No it doesn't, you know I meant debt as if in the liability not the asset
mircea_popescu: the fact that i convey a claim against you to him does not mean he inherited it from me.
mircea_popescu: it merely means i conveyed it to him.
justJanne: Debt as a liability and debt as an asset have to be treated the same.
williamdunne: No, they don't
mircea_popescu: i'm not even sure what that aims to mean.
justJanne: So, again,
justJanne: We have a contract between two parties.
justJanne: One party can give the contract to another person,
justJanne: But the other party is always bound to it?
justJanne: That sounds very unfair.
mircea_popescu: if the contract is so phrased, yes.
mircea_popescu: hey, lex pacta. you can make a contract say whatever you wish it to say
justJanne: No, you can't.
mircea_popescu: the counterpart being that you can never impose a contract on anyone.
justJanne: If the contract is worded so that it provides and obvious disadvantage for one party, it is void.
mircea_popescu: well obviously i can.
mircea_popescu: not here.
justJanne: In most of the world, yes.
justJanne: For good reason.
mircea_popescu: irrelevant.
mircea_popescu: in most of the world (defined as africa), females must have their bits cut off.
trinque: dear god europe allows "it's not fair" to dissolve contracts?
mircea_popescu: so what of it. the most of the world can go hang.

davout: yea, i probably suck at such estimates
williamdunne: “Just to be clear, I’m not a professional ‘politician’. I’m just a german teenager who greatly values her intelligence and political fact over any silly idea conjured up some years ago. This being said, I am open to any and all criticism.
williamdunne: ‘In this moment, I am euphoric. Not because of any popescu’s blessing. But because, I am enlightened by my intelligence and state-funded education system.’"
davout: i have like less than half this for may
mircea_popescu: and, in a fascinating turn of what sexism really is, remember that one time when ben_vulpes had a friend over, about the same age, about the same ideas and i bit his head off ?
mircea_popescu: apparently it pays being female.
mircea_popescu: williamdunne wait wut ?
justJanne: The issue is that most women prefer social stability over the chance to get rich.
mircea_popescu: this is not an issue, for as long as they understand that this is ok for them and unpleasant for others.
mircea_popescu: and they wear heels.
justJanne: Most people here agree on this, though.
justJanne: The stuff most women prefer in general,
mircea_popescu: dun make those statements, they're stupid things for stupid people. here, this, blah.

justJanne: Is preferred by most of society here.
justJanne: Anyway,
justJanne: Interestingly, you should read about the veil of ignorance.
justJanne: It's a nice thought experiment.
mircea_popescu: justJanne "most of society" that gets a voice, which is bored women.
justJanne: And, interestingly, this thought experiment almost always ends in the Nordic model.
justJanne: The thought experiment is:
mircea_popescu: you seriously contemplate teh notion i'm not aware of "veil of ignorance" etc ?
justJanne: Oh, cool.
justJanne: So, assuming this experiment, how can you be for an anarchist society,
justJanne: When you yourself might end up a piss poor person?
mircea_popescu: you think i care ?
williamdunne: I'm not familiar, give me a mo'
justJanne: Okay:
williamdunne: When you yourself might end up a piss poor person? << being well off isn't left to chance
mircea_popescu: i built more fortunes thjan you had boyfriends to date
mircea_popescu: and burned just as many.
mircea_popescu: being poor is only a problem if you belong there. otherwise, it's like being dirty.
mircea_popescu: washes right off.
justJanne: How would you design a society, assuming you have to live in it later, you can be any person in it, it is random.
mircea_popescu: i don't believe in this cultural warfare bs.
williamdunne: justJanne: Everyone executed except the rich
mircea_popescu: people are not "random", leaves in the wind at the mercy of 1984-esque government.
justJanne: Of course most people end up designing a society where everyone has enough to live, but also has chance to become rich.
mircea_popescu: you don't follow the important point.
justJanne: Which is the Nordic model.
mircea_popescu: again : people are not rootless, leaves in the wind of "society".
mircea_popescu: to propose that you can randomly switch people around as if they were interchangeable parts is already to introduce socialism as a given
mircea_popescu: socialism is not only not a given, it is the system of organised stupidity.
mircea_popescu: and no matter what happens, you can't be me. maybe being you is still cool and worth being. maybe it isn't.
mircea_popescu: if it isn't your'e fucked, because that's what you'll ever be.
justJanne: The idea is to create a society where every person has an acceptable life.
mircea_popescu: that idea is about on par with "i wonder if superman could beat batman"
mircea_popescu: idle masturbation for the infantile mind.
justJanne: The difference is, it works.
mircea_popescu: like collodial silver works :
williamdunne: mircea_popescu: Thats actually becoming a film I think
mircea_popescu: if you take the vouches of idiots seriously, it works, sure.
mircea_popescu: williamdunne im sure.
mircea_popescu: teh lady doth say no too much.
justJanne: Take for example my father, no money, piss poor. Would have had no money for studying. But also not able to work heavy work.
justJanne: Thanks to free education, he studied law.
williamdunne: justJanne: Don't mistake this for being a channel where everyone had rich parents
justJanne: Without free education, he couldn't have ever afforded it.
mircea_popescu: justJanne so he studied law and you still need the state to put you through college ?
mircea_popescu: apparently with education he never got very far ?
williamdunne: Too many lawyers, education diluted the market I'm guessing
mircea_popescu: williamdunne nah, in germany being a lawyer is like being a clerk.
justJanne: No, the issue is a different one.
mircea_popescu: they make jack shit.
mircea_popescu: none of that 10mn / year + benefits.
williamdunne: Gender Studies a better option?
justJanne: Also, there are different kinds of lawyers.
mircea_popescu: williamdunne socialism, so: everything an equally shitty option, but
justJanne: There are also corporal lawyers working in companies writing legal terms for contracts all day long.
mircea_popescu: "hey, be thankful for the little you get" and all that jazz.
mircea_popescu: justJanne corporate.
williamdunne: It’s not an endlessly expanding list of rights — the ‘right’ to education, the ‘right’ to health care, the ‘right’ to food and housing. That’s not freedom, that’s dependency. Those aren’t rights, those are the rations of slavery — hay and a barn for human cattle.
justJanne: He could have worked as legal attorney,
justJanne: But he preferred the stable job in a company over the risk of having to depend on clients.
mircea_popescu: well, don't you think he should be ashamed of himself, in front of you ?
justJanne: Nah.
mircea_popescu: other people's dads did a lot better, unlike his lazy ass.
justJanne: He did the right thing.
mircea_popescu: i'd hold him up to task.
davout: aaand we broke 1000
mircea_popescu: you wanna be ~my~ father, you shoulda done a shitload better than this stupid shit.
williamdunne: Being risk averse isn't a good idea generally speaking, if you want to be succeeding at anything.
justJanne: Being risk averse is a very stable solution, though.
mircea_popescu: i can't stand it in people, and especially not in men. imagine the unbearable conversation of someone who prefers the stability of bureaucratism and "not having to depend on clients"
mircea_popescu: aka im too lazy to do a good job.
williamdunne: 'Conversation'
justJanne: This is Germany. The place where people will wait at an empty crosswalk at 3am on Sunday.
mircea_popescu: justJanne i'm just forcing a point.
justJanne: Stability and safety über allies.
justJanne: *alles
mircea_popescu: the signs of a dead civilisation.
mircea_popescu: you ever read nietzsche btw ?
williamdunne: Safety is the precedent for anything dystopian
justJanne: Ofc I did.
mircea_popescu: since in her world sartre never happened, as didn't voltaire.
mircea_popescu: justJanne so what do you make of it ?
justJanne: Meh.
mircea_popescu: care to be specific ?
justJanne: I don't like most of it.
mircea_popescu: you know, that's how rich men dump young girls ? "what did you think of the film" "meh" "specifically ?" "i just didn't like it"
justJanne: But it was 3 years ago, and in school, so I don't remember much more except for getting in an argument with my teacher.

justJanne: Also, you often don't need laws or regulations, as they are often ignored, if you use society or physics, it works better. Example: the streets in my city. If you have no parking lots anywhere in the city, people will have to use public transport. And private investors are happy too, because they can build parking lots and charge moon prices. 8$/h

justJanne: The current nordic model was already discussed and partially implemented in the 1800s
mircea_popescu: lol. what is with socialism and its desperate need to a) pretend it has a different name now and b) pretend it has historical roots ?

mircea_popescu: riiight.
justJanne: Yes. Read Marx.
mircea_popescu: i'd have to borrow your glasses
mircea_popescu: an' i dun think they fit my head.

mircea_popescu: how about, i have the money, i make the rules ?
justJanne: And there are many successful Nordic startups and companies.
justJanne: Money is a thing invented by people.
mircea_popescu: so are rules.
williamdunne: What do you mean "Invented"
justJanne: Yes.
williamdunne: Its sort of not invented but pretty much inherent to humans
mircea_popescu: gravity is also a thing invented by people.
williamdunne: Hence why the Indians die and Europeans rule the world
mircea_popescu: doesn't mean rocks didn't fall before, but it does mean it wasn't called gravity.
williamdunne: doesn't mean rocks didn't fall before, but it does mean it wasn't called gravity. << this is exactly what I mean
mircea_popescu: so, yes, the idiocy of socialism, no matter how named, and the superiority of la serenissima, etc, are rules of the world, and drive it whether named or unnamed.
justJanne: Money is invented just like laws, or countriez
mircea_popescu: but other than that, money was invented and reinvented by people, most recently being called bitcoin.
williamdunne: Money has existed since before government was a concept that meant anything other than some tribe leader with a bone through his nose
mircea_popescu: justJanne was the number 7 invented by people, iyo ?
williamdunne: And it has been "invented" god knows how many times independently

mircea_popescu: sucks that most of the kids are online geeks / webexperts i guess.

mircea_popescu: eslewhere where, in the "democratic" republic of germany ? (following kruschev's revelation on stalin!)
mircea_popescu: Since the massacre, police have announced that there is “credible information about threats toward law enforcement.” Waco police issued a bulletin at 10:13 Sunday night that announced: “Our agency has recieved (sic) information that the Cosaks (sic) and Banditos (sic) have issued an order to kill anyone in uniform.”
