benkay: and the bearings themselves are actually pretty small - they're just races attached to the frame
benkay: har not a consideration for this hog
benkay: tiny small control surfaces at the top
benkay: it prevents control inversion
benkay: 6" id if i recall correctly?
benkay: like
benkay: big fucking bearings too
benkay: it's a "student group" mostly made up of area professionals
benkay: was at one point
benkay: cut, hardened and packed our own bearings
benkay: we reverse engineered that from other rockets controlled with canards
benkay: but its got some sweet mechanics too, you'll note that the fins spin independently of the rocket body
benkay: basically built by ee's as a flight platform for their electronics
benkay: rocket is a hilarious hog
benkay: built a roll control unit, doing cool stuff with imus and measurements
benkay: i nominate portland state aerospace society for their open source rocketry work
benkay: 14.5% on jd investments eh?
benkay: s/money/btc

benkay: scuse me 8 programmers
benkay: what do you call 8 bankers jumping out of a plane?
benkay: mircea_popescu: that's what made me think about cold-calling DC intl law firms.
benkay: banking's just a side-bennie
benkay: it's really a membership fee to the cigar and wine vaults
benkay: "it's just a fantasy, office! this is totally consensual!"
benkay: privileged to rape one feminist?
benkay: you keep it in your encrypted privelege wallet
benkay: the richness of today is the more richness of tomorrow
benkay: except in bitcoin, mircea_popescu
benkay: mircea_popescu ^^
benkay: you and i are both using "impossible" in the sense of "impossible for you or most other people"
benkay: except that fixing the world is impossible except randomly from time to time as in the satoshi case.
benkay: in that the former chase profit and the later abhor it.
benkay: people who can build web applications while derpy as fuck are significantly less derpy than people who burn their hours trying to fix the world.
benkay: 3!
benkay: i'm pleased that 'fractional reserve' is now an insult.
benkay: au contraire, not nearly short enough
benkay: i need something btc to do that's not this damn parser
benkay: i'll go bike around town wheatpasting 'em
benkay: ship some to me
benkay: today in -assets, mircea_popescu catches up to 2012
benkay: ahahahaha
benkay: much readong
benkay: such work
benkay: A : I thought - what would attract young users to Linux? So I created this idea after a lot of reading and work.
benkay: Q : How/why did you make such a great OS?
benkay: not yet
benkay: no time to explain. ask the channel.
benkay: also WillTablet you're going to want to ditch that Microsoft habit. gonna get you in trouble.
benkay: Bugpowder: maybe an alt PMB
benkay: maybe, but channel that into focus on important things and learn how to handle humans. it /is/ a learnable skill.
benkay: WillTablet: you're probably young enough for it to make sense the first time you read it. consider it a blessing!
benkay: shoes too, some of 'em.
benkay: yummy.
benkay: welfare state lemming.
benkay: goldstain was pretty good
benkay: the coin is a lie
benkay: asciilifeform: context?
benkay: asciilifeform: what is this from which you're quoting?
benkay: save the houries for chaang-noi
benkay: i hear and obey
benkay: it's nice seeing y'all hash through the requirements of launching an altcoin
benkay: .bait
benkay: so how do we get the atc ticker in -assets?
benkay: yeah hey mircea_popescu give the kid some atc
benkay: acquire more, don't burn the ones you have.
benkay: sit on your butts
benkay: but kid listen
benkay: and you won't need it to learn the important stuff about not losing your shirt.
benkay: it's not that bad :)
benkay: e^-iπ?
benkay: ^1/5 etc?
benkay: WillTablet: have you worked with exponentials?
benkay: the most complicated thing you'll ever encounter in most practical investment problems is time discounting of money WillTablet
benkay: nope.
benkay: WillTablet: far more difficult than when we were taught, but hey this is the real world.
benkay: WillTablet: learning is free these days. take advantage of it.
benkay: WillTablet: yeah get u some pdfs
benkay: mircea_popescu: you have recommendations?
benkay: if you can't make it through them, you're not ready for the markets.
benkay: yup.
benkay: and Buffett - the Making of an American Capitalist
benkay: The Intelligent Investor by Benjamin Graham
benkay: WillTablet: there are two books for you to read before you put any money into the market
benkay: hang on WillTablet i have a book for you
benkay: keep your btc
benkay: the internet isn't going to teach you anything about investing except via exceptional losses.
benkay: WillTablet ^^
benkay: irony
benkay: mine were burning retirement capital until 6 months ago
benkay: good man
benkay: yup.
benkay: have fun, kid.
benkay: *sigh*
benkay: more likely -100%.
benkay: they'll take it from you when they're old and dying anyways.
benkay: why are you doing that?
benkay: sounds like a rat fuck of bad decisions, WillTablet
benkay: some into us treasury bonds
benkay: if you want to learn investing, borrow some money from your parents WillTablet and put it into Tesla.
benkay: your alternative is to throw it away on scams that don't have fees because they're not really businesses.
benkay: WillTablet: http://coinbr.com, although i think fees would eat you alive
benkay: 0.007'd get et by jurov's fees instantly right?
benkay: kiddo doesn't know mpex
benkay: eh semi serious
benkay: the fundamental assumption is that a given operation will grow in value faster than btc.
benkay: it's a really good question, WillTablet.
benkay: if you want to actually invest it, put it into MPEx.
benkay: if you expect to lose it, why bother?
benkay: without any risk due to lending it out.
benkay: in ten years that 0.007 BTC will be worth several x your dollars
benkay: hey WillTablet let me give you a bit of insight
benkay: you're only out like 12 buck
benkay: why not just learn the lesson, WillTablet?
benkay: ;;calc 623 * 0.007
benkay: ;;ticker
benkay: and?
benkay: welcome
benkay: as in rap sheet, arrest history
benkay: mircea_popescu: "bad rap"
benkay: that's intense Namworld
benkay: i thought it was mostly white with some tatooos
benkay: all as like transient guests that occasionally show up and say nonsensical things
benkay: Amir Taaki
benkay: Colored Coins
benkay: this stage musical would have GLBSE
benkay: wait i'm no heathen
benkay: you guys we need a stage musical
benkay: #musical number begins
benkay: it's sunday in -assets!
benkay: pankkake: just transfer the coins nubbins` is throwing away to my account under your mgmt plz
benkay: and then go home
benkay: get all horny
benkay: we all sit around and talk about what kind of sex we'd like to have
benkay: doncha know mircea_popescu
benkay: shut up Vexual
benkay: i'll take nubbins`' altcoins
benkay: all techno is cryptocoins
benkay: if the tools are free, why develop competence when everyone else you know hacking on them is just as incompetent as yourself?
benkay: nubbins`: that's precisely the problem. when people can't be arsed to figure out how to get their tools to make money, they don't arse themselves to grok the tools either.
benkay: "why are these tools so hard bawwww"
benkay: no investment of money, no investment of time.
benkay: nubbins`: nobody buys moog modules and so therefore has no incentive to actually learn them
benkay: mircea_popescu: ^^
benkay: can't get away with it anymore
benkay: well once upon a time
benkay: i've done too many drugs with dubstep playing to care about it anymore
benkay: eh
benkay: horrible house music
benkay: anime music videos
benkay: it was vile
benkay: he and Vexual were wanking each other off the nother night.
benkay: oh shit herbi's into some wackness
benkay: and i think into anime shit as well.
benkay: he's also a wannabe quant computer guy
benkay: and i mean the actual fucking bound volumes.
benkay: britannica or gtfo
benkay: what about men?
benkay: hear hear
benkay: so it's okay baby
benkay: i wear condoms.
benkay: and AND
benkay: reptations get built in more places than -assets
benkay: not terribly, it's the local btc irc channel
benkay: disregarded me for months
benkay: i know some
benkay: <donpdonp> i cant tell which
benkay: [18:30]
benkay: <benkay> so gox: criminally incompetent? criminals? or just incompetent?
benkay: maybe the joke is on me expecting comedy
benkay: nobody on that show can tell a joke.
benkay: awkward comedy at its worst.
benkay: show is miserable.
benkay: curb? CURB?!
benkay: get with the 2004 mang
benkay: yeah man keyword clouds are where its at
benkay: disqus*
benkay: oh yeah also while we're on the topic your discus implementation is fucking horrendous too
benkay: cushion
benkay: whoopie cushin
benkay: human belt.
benkay: if you can avoid getting scammed ;)
benkay: 300 bucks'll get you a pretty nice bottle of wine, Mats_cd03.
benkay: the upper end of skill experience and what have ye isn't but that's a vanishingly small slice.
benkay: thing is most humans are totally fungible
benkay: read it
benkay: "how many human lives is an mpex seat worth"
benkay: sounds like a deal.
benkay: that's what, less than an mpex seat?
benkay: anyways that kind of property is kind of unique and so therefore probably worth in excess of 5k
benkay: you can always imbue your replica with that property, though, Mats_cd03
benkay: you're responsible for the distractions roaming around
benkay: i begin to understand why offices work
benkay: steal*
benkay: i don't imitate, mircea_popescu i steap.
benkay: yup
benkay: ZING
benkay: yeah that in particular
benkay: ah then then the forum
benkay: sottisier needs linking to bash.*, mircea_popescu
benkay: american english teachers know neither english nor how to teach.
benkay: to bring us back to a much much earlier topic
benkay: "art"
benkay: haha
benkay: mircea_popescu: why u no bikes? how ams evil?
benkay: nubbins`: is that me?
benkay: mircea_popescu: it's got awful js and css - that's how you know REAL PROGRAMMERS built it
benkay: being a stick figure is disappointing though
benkay: rad illustration nubbins`
benkay: the inconvenience of girlslime!?
benkay: mircea_popescu: funny man
benkay: mircea_popescu: did you see the part where i said "although..." trailing off while pondering the work/payoff function?
benkay: fair 'nuff
benkay: or at least stop trying to foist your differentiation of scams on -assets
benkay: yeah so let the scammers alone
benkay: pursue personal power
benkay: make the babes happy
benkay: or alternatively accept that 99.99999 of people are going to get fucked their whole lives, throw up hands and not give fucks.
benkay: that makes like nobody that should be 'allowed' to play with these dangerous toys
benkay: and 0.01% of people that are careful
benkay: but there's 0.01% of people that are smart
benkay: they might get ripped off if they're not really smart and careful!
benkay: i suppose this is why normal humans aren't allowed to buy fancy paper in the us
benkay: not 'consumer tech'
benkay: not toys
benkay: but bitcoins is fukken dangerous.
benkay: i get where you're coming from nubbins`, really i do
benkay: great margins.
benkay: great scam!
benkay: it's not a requirement.
benkay: that's your play with the coins, certainly.
benkay: point is - life is a scam.
benkay: that'n
benkay: it's not terribly complex. it's a pmb.
