benkay: but they're <h1>IMPORTANT</h1>
benkay: use a feed reader.
benkay: what's the point i say
benkay: but your eyes aren't bleeding now!
benkay: that's a *wholly* new claim.
benkay: I had this figured out from the first day or so of looking seriously at Bitcoin. It takes you guys including MPOE a while to catch up.
benkay: if you squint, lean your head sideways and don't work with other javascript developers javascript can be written fairly lispily.
benkay: lisps can be found that sit atop most other languages too, ThickAsThieves. there are python lisps, java lisps...
benkay: salut!
benkay: maybe.
benkay: might be tho
benkay: or a gerbil.
benkay: my money's on hamsters deep in the enemy rear.
benkay: doubtless.
benkay: "deep in the enemy's rear"
benkay: nubbins`: functional? it's got a list of posts. whaddaya want?
benkay: bah
benkay: !b 4
benkay: ;;google trilema conference
benkay: duh?
benkay: and still find time to post nudes constantly
benkay: can stand up, operate, diddle wp blogs, options bots, automated gpg airgapped systems (!) , post all day on btctalk and maintain a presence in here
benkay: mp as total wizard
benkay: i like the theory
benkay: mpoe-pr's salary getting cut
benkay: best indicator of btc market tops
benkay: wow wow wow

benkay: toffoo what is this "last week's mess" referred to below your link?
benkay: additionally, this is visible on the 796 "exchange"
benkay: gracias, toffoo. apologies for mispelling your name.
benkay: 796
benkay: ;;later tell toffo link to asicminer missed div dox pretty plox?
benkay: forehead reduction, though
benkay: mulhauser
benkay: ;;later tell mircea_popescu hey if you have it on hand i'd appreciate a link to where dr forehead claims that since he outperformed the scams he made money for his clients
benkay: does anyone recall the post where dr. forehead claimed that since he outperformed the scams he made money for his clients?
benkay: stahp chetty stahp i cannae take na more
benkay: are you a slackware guy, BingoBoingo?
benkay: more derpy responsive horror: http://imgur.com/WEz8xpi
benkay: that's as may be, but the link i posted is derpy as hell on its own.
benkay: ah
benkay: you don't have to have an account to read
benkay: (twist: it's goat!)
benkay: a video?
benkay: what's the wpm on a podcast?
benkay: low information density to boot.
benkay: i suppose that presumes being able to put one's thoughts into coherent words instead of babbling into a microphone.
benkay: it's downright baffling, chetty. take, for instance, the podcast noted above. how much more work is it to do that thing than to just write out one's thoughts?
benkay: implicit due to previous conversations is the notion that america doesn't produce worthwhile comedy.
benkay: upshot was "honey, if there's no text, and it ain't comedy, i ain't interested."
benkay: babydoll wanted me to watch some maddow thing about god i don't even remember
benkay: mhm.
benkay: teh horror: http://imgur.com/Xxhskor
benkay: oh yeah the bitcoin podcast
benkay: oh? i must've missed this.
benkay: "gentle".
benkay: and i appreciate that you all let me fix it in my own time, with only the occasional gentle suggestions.
benkay: i also knew it then.
benkay: i know it sucked before.
benkay: thanks, man!
benkay: their os is utter shite, but their dev tools make it possible for the averagely-intelligenced to participate in the big corporate software development dance.
benkay: microsoft's dev tools are pretty good is the funny thing about that statement
benkay: har
benkay: exceptional technical manager
benkay: brilliant man
benkay: i worked for one of the perl greybeards who built and ran the place for a while
benkay: and slashdot ca. 2014 at that.
benkay: slashdot, though.
benkay: first principles maybe?
benkay: old man
benkay: "traction". silly-con valley horseshit, i say.
benkay: here today, gone tomorrow.
benkay: slashdot, hacker news, metafilter
benkay: what's the rush, anyways.
benkay: linked 'counterparty selection' again today BingoBoingo.
benkay: asynchrony!
benkay: the current trend in behavior is to just toss your two cents in as you read through the logs, directed at the people making interesting comments
benkay: maturation process etc.
benkay: they probably won't allow me to make commits on the clock for much longer anyways.
benkay: oh if only i had the time
benkay: i have too much to do before i mature
benkay: hush you
benkay: went from 'scruffy *nix hacker' to 'well-groomed software shop operator and smug lisp weenie-cum-*nix-hacker'.
benkay: maybe not, though. i did a complete 180 on my personal image over the past four months as our firm has gained traction.
benkay: (my colleagues would gasp in shock if they heard me opining about design)
benkay: for good reason, too. while it's now free of the cruft, it lacks any actual aesthetic.
benkay: nubbins` hates it, though.
benkay: need to deploy some capital against the design to get it just right, but i've finally ripped out all the modern garbage.
benkay: not quite there yet.
benkay: thanks
benkay: there wasn't much.
benkay: that's what i'm rolling with.
benkay: BingoBoingo: is it bitcoins pl. noun and Bitcoin proper? or Bitcoins and Bitcoin?
benkay: ;;later tell mircea_popescu is it bitcoins pl. noun and Bitcoin proper? or Bitcoins and Bitcoin?
benkay: ;;later tell bitcoinpete or, you know, my name.
benkay: ;;later tell bitcoinpete hey frere if you need pronouns for me feel free to use my actual handle in the future
benkay: Mats_cd03: google "i am satoshi nakamoto"
benkay: no no it was much better the first way
benkay: not even gzipping, i'll bet.
benkay: bonus side effect of ripping out the css and js from my site is how much more snappy it is.
benkay: mircea_popescu: may i post a copy of the s.dice contract on my blog?
benkay: hue hue hue
benkay: although now the linespacing issue with footnotes is just that much more apparent.
benkay: mircea_popescu, BingoBoingo: blog updated. look, ma! no bootstrap!
benkay: Ademan: you missed the secret sauce with that one-liner.
benkay: what's going on Orion__?
benderp: robertmcmillan: welcome
benderp: mircea_popescu: i know. kinda why i bring it to the sages.
benderp: "IP bad" an argument doth not make, Ademan.
benderp: so copyright and patents. do these survive the bitpocalypse?
benderp: Shakespeare: what was the slippage on that one?
benderp: fed?
benderp: goodness.
benderp: modern impalement.
benderp: "hardest target in bitcoin", to quote a guy.
benderp: or as I say to my staunchly little-d democratic friends "everything is born, matures, ossifies and dies. governments are no different."
benderp: ninjashogun: you also owe me 5btc for my time this afternoon ;)
benderp: horrible creatures
benderp: oh ho ho garzik's slipping protobufs back into bitcoin
benderp: list on cryptostocks
benderp: can we buy them already in a butt?
benderp: ;;ticker
benderp: blow stamps to be had for cheap
benderp: yeah?
benderp: i think i'll be getting my babe and my pit another puppy here soon.
benderp: babby puppieeeeees
benderp: hers?
benderp: your bitch?
benderp: your dog?
benderp: mircea_popescu: pits and tits!
benderp: ninjashogun: i begin to understand your grasp of software development.
benderp: ninjashogun: luck?
benderp: if it's only going to take a weekend, ninjashogun, go do it and stop yammering.
benderp: wrong again, ninjashogun.
benderp: ninjashogun: how did mircea_popescu fund his site?
benderp: don't see what all the rush is about
benderp: plain ol gpg should suffice
benderp: .bait
benderp: .bait
benderp: .bait
benderp: interesting over useful?!
benderp: interesting!?
benderp: hardware wallets are actually more complex and a greater pain in the ass. users must understand transactions, how to generate one, how to sign one, and how to transmit one.
benderp: even moiety's in on the game now
benderp: ThickAsThieves: don't encourage him.
benderp: it's sekyure, doncha no.
benderp: over wifi!
benderp: ninjashogun: ^^
benderp: how is an offline wallet going to know its balance?
benderp: no but no
benderp: ninjashogun: how could an offline device know its balance?
benderp: to hold btc.
benderp: ninjashogun: the rational thing for long term btc holders is...
benderp: ninjashogun: another challenge is the backup and restoration problem.
benderp: the thing with the people who buy things with bitcoins, is that eventually they will run out of bitcoins.
benderp: with the bells
benderp: asciilifeform: link the goats again!
benderp: mo users, mo problems.
benderp: ninjashogun: if you can't be bothered to respond to private conversations that you start, I don't see why I should arse myself to respond to your PMs.
benderp: yeah derpin hard
benderp: users' is the nickel-and-dime chumpatron where these folks pay
benderp: <asciilifeform> afaik the only software today 'specifically targeted at mac
benderp: bash script on an ordinary computer
benderp: $20/each for a hundred little gui utilities that'd be a 1-line
benderp: can you provide an acceptable example?
benderp: what are these professional things the macintosh consumer software enables?
benderp: everyone i know who can afford a macintosh pays an accountant if they're not on salary, ninjashogun.
benderp: uh
benderp: it tastes great!
benderp: der fuhrershitcake?
benderp: what was it asciilifeform was going on about?
benderp: and yet ninjashogun those are the 'architects' out there in the wild, delivering value by your standards.
benderp: ah davout thou art a scholar
benderp: no, you're a budding Jobs, right ninjashogun?
benderp: i blame the incompetent teachers.
benderp: ninjashogun: all the reading in the world, and look at the shitshow that's resulted.
benderp: workers = fungible
benderp: fungible labor is fungible.
benderp: mircea_popescu: more credence accrues every day to the notion that consumer organizations accepting bitcoin only do so as they begin to circle the drain.
benderp: nonsense ninjashogun. a vanishingly thin slice of everyone is competent, and everyone else is constantly justifying their incompetence to themselves and each other.
benkay: he's no troll - 100% authentic!
benkay: Luke-Jr?
benkay: BingoBoingo: just the best troll this channel has ever seen.

benkay: (re: "who runs this": http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VBmMU_iwe6U)
benkay: if he straight up ignored the girl she'd probably go bonkers
benkay: on the topic of non-sentient-beings: http://amultiverse.com/comic/2010/07/19/sentient-gardens/
benkay: i informed him it'd make for a downright wacky marketplace.
benkay: a man once spoke to me about explicit collateralization of options.
benkay: anyways, cheerio
benkay: bitcoinpete: you're likely in a better position to more thoroughly dox me than mp already has
benkay: i was just headed out, figured i'd spooked ya ;)
benkay: oh there's the pete
benkay: night moiety
benkay: and we didn't even make it to disneyland!
benkay: theme park for nominally adult people.
benkay: it's just not polite to say to the babe's family that their part of the world will be delivered unto the ocean along with them and all of their systems of belief and we'll all be much better for it.
benkay: in a 'wheels come off society everything headed for oblivion and everyone singing blithely' sort of way
benkay: the place is kinda fascinating
benkay: honestly rather glad i was traveling.
benkay: voof
benkay: soft underbelly etc
benkay: ya
benkay: ;;calc 100000*123
benkay: yeah my eyes widened slightly for a second before reason kicked in
benkay: total losses, moiety?
benkay: o yikes.
benkay: chetty: mcdonald's is delicious if you've never had a hamburger.
benkay: ah that's where you've been. too bad to hear, moiety. what happened?
benkay: baha moiety
benkay: chetty: convenience and idiocy?
benkay: the BSc in Immunology might not be a bad place to start, bitcoinpete
benkay: ah its neat to see lifeboat folks in here
benkay: do you know mardlin?
benkay: ah goodness you're a lifeboat guy
benkay: so bitcoinpete what's your background?
benkay: probly purt darn near
benkay: hey moiety troll all the freaked out webwallet users with me
benkay: you might be able to troll the blockchain.info operators into putting 100B on "we totes have your butts"
benkay: LordPutin: have you tried hedging your losses on bitbet?
benkay: just...imitate those who get it?
benkay: mireca_popescu already figured out out to monetize backlogs of content.
benkay: .
benkay: no. credits
benkay: oh wait Shakespeare see above
benkay: i'm kinda amazed that Scenes from a Multiverse doesn't have a first button
benkay: their authors generate epic backlogs of work (some of them) and the fans are slavish fans who will pay for anything
benkay: oh hey bitcoin payments for comics
benkay: dexX7: where'd you get that? it's excellent.
