BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: Just dug up the filing. Working on a write up.
mircea_popescu: money works the same way, there's us and there's reddit, and there's no real path for the redditard to get in the wot. sure, he could, but as the article says, "The small chip camera owner cannot cross the forbidden zone for 30 BTC reasons, and even if he did, he wouldnt have the necessary skills."
mircea_popescu: computers have worked exactly that same way, too. there's people who cli and then there's the hopeless horde looking for the any key. there's nothing in between, nor should there be, and kids learning to "program for the web" aren't ever going to become professionals.
mircea_popescu: this is how things naturally evolve, and it also happens to be the right way.
mircea_popescu: this is absolutely the rule of the world. why do you think there's monkeys and humans, and nothing in between ? author ever heard of punctuated equilibrium ?
mircea_popescu: at are so expensive that even professionals cringe. Its like owning a jumbo jet: you cant afford not to fly it, hence the constant references to workflow in the marketing. Alas, in between these two types we find the equivalent of a valence band or forbidden zone." << this has nothing to do with marketing.
mircea_popescu: "Digital photography today is another victim of the dead hand of marketing, where short term gain overrides any other concern. Broadly speaking, marketing has created two types of camera. There are those with small chips that are cheap increasingly incorporated into a cell phone have a rubbish lens, need no skill to operate and therefore teach the user nothing. And then there are those cameras with big chips th

bounce: nah, that's remolding the argument in a clash of wills when availability makes lazy. different mechanism.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform conversely, the fault of people who think they can so misapply their will.
asciilifeform: but that is what the fate is of people herded into using the tool against their will - defaults everywhere and always.
asciilifeform: thing is, nobody forces you to use the default '80s crud font/layout
mircea_popescu: the "profession" of photography is not evolving towards going back to film cameras. it's evolving towards drone cameras. they find the right spot on their own, fly around, take a bunch of photos for you etc.
mircea_popescu: afore the computer each sort of drawing was its own profession, with its own tools.
mircea_popescu: yeah. pure forms. writing, words or numbers. but not drawing, either.
mircea_popescu: generally the computer revolution has killed the outskirts and "empowered" the pure forms.
asciilifeform: sometimes the death of a profession is not all smiles. i once saw a rant lamenting the invention of LaTeX as a terrible calamity for mathematics. argument was that, whereas it was once possible for mathematicians (and physicists) to remain entirely innocent of typograpy and its brute labours, now the typographers gave up and went home. and now you (maths folks) also are stuck being typographers - and generally, no
jurov: then...does any distiguished profession exist anymore?
mircea_popescu has a penchant for watching notions dieing a grizzly death in the field.
mircea_popescu: bounce i'd much prefer you taking them apart.
bounce: "criteria" is plural, by the by. my takeaway is that I'm running into a bunch of preconceptions that make the discussion quite meaningless, so I'll yield while disagreeing.
mircea_popescu: just like the plumber using silicone curing isn't a silicone professional in any sense.
mircea_popescu: nor are they professional.
asciilifeform: there is another 'secret' - and that is, that most folks who actually need 40+MP photographs in real life - astronomers, spies, biologists, weirdos like yours truly, etc. - own and operate own hardware. and don't actually need photographers.
mircea_popescu: professions die all the damned time.
mircea_popescu: it wasn't so dead at some point in 1920, of course, but that only to us. i'm sure in 1920 some similar dispute raged, either about draughstmanship or some other sort of engraving.
mircea_popescu: bounce anyway, so stated our dispute boils down to me saying that it is upon you either to present an outside criteria or else yield. (which is why i assumed your criteria is presented, and summarized it as "pre digital"). my point generally is that you can't present any meaningful criteria anyway.
jurov: professional photographers must have difficulty finding their ilk, too
mircea_popescu: jurov i bring as proof the difficulty real fags have in dating.
mircea_popescu: but by definition it can not. whatever it comes up with is actually the marketing-approved photography and all is well.
jurov: your argumetn feels to me like saying since homosexuality is marketing-trending there are no real fags anymore
asciilifeform: re: photographers: situation is rather like bulldozer operators. machine costing half of a plebe's yearly pay. you rent it, and it happens to come with operator who is mostly certain not to break it, and knows approximately which knobs to turn to dig the ditch, err, snap the photo.
mircea_popescu: bounce what is this market for "professionally done photographs", wherein the definition of "professionally" is coherent with pre-digital photography ?
bounce: there's a market for hand-painted portraits just as there is a market for professionally-done photographs. the argument re the latter is that the marketeering is busily making the required machinery unaffordable. my point was the mechanism at work.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform yes yes, all the benefits of being a prince in terms of the harem girls' awe, none of the risks in terms of the other dudes beheading you. i know all about the mental processes supporting adolescent frottage
asciilifeform: 'responsibility sink' is simply my shorthand for any apparatus which lets you 'make a decision' without putting your arse on the line as decision-maker.
mircea_popescu: but i thought we were talking about the fact.
asciilifeform: claim is not a fact << when talking about a scam, the claim is the fact (that is, the fact of the scam being set up as such or other)
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: it cannot die for so long as so-called decision makers want their 'responsibility sink' mechanism.
mircea_popescu: bounce anyway, to summarize : the discussion as to whether a profession is doing ok or not, or even is still alive, can not rely on a discussion on they who call themselves followers.
mircea_popescu: i suppose since nancy reagan was hiring court astrologers the argument can be brought that the colonies were slower on the uptake, but be that as it may...
mircea_popescu: heck, i can probably find people soliciting to protect the us from alien invasion.
bounce: similarly, plenty people snapshotting and not producing anything good, yet there's still a few who manage to produce decent photographs.
mircea_popescu: bounce why do you think "people calling themselves artists and asking for money" is an argument ?

mircea_popescu: there can't be a professional painter anymore. the last professional was godward ( http://trilema.com/2010/lumea-nu-i-de-ajuns/ srsly). he killed himself, because the world was taken over by marketers
mircea_popescu: there are, of course, still prohpets around. doesn't mean religion ain't dead.
mircea_popescu: bounce your argument that "there's still deluded idiots pretending that "painter" is an adequate synonym for "bum" " fails to support your earlier assertion that "photography hasn't killed painting".
bounce: nope. there's still painters around. shit, the 'web even gave rise to a whole new generation of amateurs and among them do progress to professional
ben_vulpes: in retrospect though i probably could have negotiated half up front and charged another 25%.
mircea_popescu: ben_vulpes point remains, when you have a buy wall you increase the price, rather thna flatten yourself against it.
bounce: try and read the thing without assuming there won't be a professional photographer. there will be, just like photography didn't kill the painter.
mircea_popescu: ben_vulpes depends, maybe the 240 a month goes into creating a relationship with the provider or w/e. at that level, the skill of the manager is much more important than technical considerations. think of it, most embasies cost more than they have to.
mircea_popescu: bounce state the point ?
ben_vulpes: but when the codemachine could run just as easily on 60/year...
bounce: that is to misunderstand the point completely
mircea_popescu: "evolutionary path from amateur to professional has been economically closed off by marketing." <<< there isn't going to be a professional photographer anymore than there's going to be a professional dresser.
mircea_popescu: ben_vulpes:... $8500 << ... in excees of 300 dollars a month << you have to understand, 300 a month may well be the threshold of "minimum we'd pay for servers". because it's a tiny sum.

mircea_popescu: this sounds bad but it is acutally good, because it gives us a method to manage the problem. ie, to distinguish between accidental and "we really should increase tx size"
mircea_popescu: yeah it is. you'll have to queue but not broadcast the next tx until this one gets included.
punkman: so if I spend the only unspent tx in the address for a new bundle, previous tx is gonna get dropped right
