    ThickAsThieves: daytrading btc got too gambley for me
    
    KRS1: well the thing is, an incorporated business is its own legal entity and any money it makes doesnt get taxed until its withdrawn as salary or whatever..you can figure out how to spend it tax free from there..max the ira's and what not..make tax free "investments" into the "company" that get sspent on this and that

    Bugpowder: I assume you have all seen this now
    
    
    
    KRS1: wow it seems that exploit could lead to rootshell
    
    KRS1: wonder if gox got rooted

    andreas: I said: in the middle of bigger towns, like munich,hamburg,berlin etc.
    
    mircea_popescu: you mean like, downtown ?
    
    andreas: in my hometown, you can find an appartment with no problems...
    
    mircea_popescu: a. then i misunderstood. obviously city centre is a limited supply.
    
    andreas: and you have to consider, that the economy still works quite well in germany.
    
    andreas: that's why so many young folks from spain etc want to come here...
    
    jurov: apparently finding a rent in vicinity of s-bahn outside city center is a problem, too
    
    andreas: yeah...

    jurov: threw some more iDiff-Os for 0.115 in, we'll see
    
    Chaang-Noi: am is growing fast, s dice is falling fast
    
    Chaang-Noi: lets see where we are in 6 months
    
    mircea_popescu: in 6 months we will be at the realisation that am is a mining stock, and consequently it's capped.
    
    ThickAsThieves: erik is still making branding and mktg mistakes
    
    Chaang-Noi: and mp AM has [aid bak the ipo prioce like 3 times.    s dice has not even once yet
    
    mircea_popescu: won't take 6months either, 2 will be plenty.
    
    mircea_popescu: Chaang-Noi that is just a result of friedcat's woeful financial management.
    
    Chaang-Noi: yeah 2 will be plenty
    
    mircea_popescu: he sold 50% of asicminer for 20k btc worth like 150k usd
    
    Chaang-Noi: yeah, he needed 150k
    
    mircea_popescu: eric sold 10% of sdice for ~40k btc, worth like whatever, 4mn
    
    mircea_popescu: this is why people with a clue list on mpex.
    
    Chaang-Noi: lol
    
    ThickAsThieves: mp, the problem with those stats
    
    ThickAsThieves: is they have nothing to do with the actual business
    
    mircea_popescu: ThickAsThieves tell you what. as an entrepreneur
    
    ThickAsThieves: just the operator's front loaded income
    
    mircea_popescu: would you rather sell half your business for 0.15 or 10% of it for 4 ?
    
    Chaang-Noi: long term am is going to kill s dice as an investment:) no doubt
    
    ThickAsThieves: thats not the argument
    
    mircea_popescu: it ias.
    
    ThickAsThieves: you arguing for an individual
    
    mircea_popescu: because only an idiot will take the worse deal.
    
    ThickAsThieves: not a business
    
    mircea_popescu: and this means deals select : idiots there, sane people here.
    
    Chaang-Noi: friedcat was late int he game, his company was a long shot...   s dice was already established
    
    ThickAsThieves: friedcat is seizing the moment
    
    ThickAsThieves: erik is seizing hooker's asses
    
    mircea_popescu: nah. his time to seize the moment was when the girl said
    
    jurov: there's no reason am's tech lead will stay more than few months
    
    mircea_popescu: actually erik is engaged to this girl he;'s beeb with for what, 7-8 years now ?
    
    ThickAsThieves: mp, so you think erik is managing his business better?
    
    ThickAsThieves: as in, currently
    
    mircea_popescu: ThickAsThieves no, i think he's just not as financially clueless as friedcat.
    
    Chaang-Noi: jurov in 2 months we should have 200 th or more    bfl cant get close tothat
    
    mircea_popescu: the hard working farmer who didn't understand banks ended up poorer than the lazy guy who never worked.
    
    ThickAsThieves: so on one hand erik is better at making money for himself, and the other friedcat is running his business better
    
    mircea_popescu: not quite.
    
    ThickAsThieves: like apple vs google
    
    mircea_popescu: friedcat is quite apt at preventing his investors from realising their risk premiums
    
    ThickAsThieves: google is much more agile
    
    Chaang-Noi: as a share holder im happy with friedcat and would be pissed at eric, but i never bought in cuz i thought eric sold too high
    
    mircea_popescu: erik is just getting a fair deal.
    
    Chaang-Noi: i think erik sold to a bunch of suckers :)
    
    mircea_popescu: Chaang-Noi well ya, but you're not exactly famed for having a clue so.
    
    Chaang-Noi: lol
    
    truff1es: eeek
    
    mircea_popescu: selling for a right price != selling to a bunch of suckers.
    
    ThickAsThieves: i think you have to decide which merits matter now
    
    Chaang-Noi: erik did what was best for him, but in the long run i bet people who trusted him dont make their money back
    
    mircea_popescu: it's a simple matter of you trying to make your shoestring into fabled riches.
    
    truff1es: was that a general you or you being chaang?

    mircea_popescu: Chaang-Noi only if you get to sell.
    
    mircea_popescu: you should have learned your lesson with pirate.
    
    Chaang-Noi: mp i have sold some at 1.499
    
    mircea_popescu: making bank is only good if you ever get to get it.
    
    Chaang-Noi: what did i learn from pirate mp?
    
    ThickAsThieves: also not that my position in AM is temporal
    
    mircea_popescu: that making 1.5 out of .1 is ONLY GOOD if you actually take the 1.5
    
    ThickAsThieves: I am selling them after all
    
    ThickAsThieves: note*
    
    Chaang-Noi: iv collected a lot more money from AM than i put in, and still hold a large amount
    
    mircea_popescu: which is exactly what's going on here, by refusing his investors liquidity friedcat is fucking them in teh wazoo
    
    Chaang-Noi: and mp lol that you think i know what happened with my accounts with pirate :)
    
    mircea_popescu: course his investors are in general too clueless to realise, so he can manage to get away with it
    
    Chaang-Noi: you*
    
    ThickAsThieves: of course there is risk here

    mircea_popescu: ThickAsThieves that's not the contention.
    
    ThickAsThieves: its not like SDICE is less risky
    
    Chaang-Noi: most of his investers are happy with a 300% dividend and a 1500% stock price
    
    mircea_popescu: the contention is : am investors put in .1, took the risk, survived it.

    Chaang-Noi: mp AM is on like every exchange other than yours, and on some of them more than once
    
    Chaang-Noi: it also sells otc
    
    Chaang-Noi: AM is about the most liquid thing ever,

    kakobrekla: 18:57.32 ( kakobrekl ) do you have any spec written? im asking because bitcoind does not
    
    kakobrekla: 18:57.49 ( @marco ) that is a tough question
    
    kakobrekla: 18:57.57 ( @jy-p ) if you check out the godoc and comments, btcwire encodes a lot of the spec-related info
    
    kakobrekla: 18:57.58 ( @marco ) bitcoind is the spec essentially
    
    kakobrekla: 18:58.08 ( @marco ) we have documented heavily along the way
    
    kakobrekla: 18:58.18 ( kakobrekl ) so thats a no then?
    
    kakobrekla: 18:58.28 ( @marco ) it is looking like we will help getting the spec in order once development slows down a little
    
    kakobrekla: 18:58.36 ( @marco ) it's a half no
    
    kakobrekla: 18:58.55 ( @jy-p ) we obviously don't have a draft RFC :)
    
    kakobrekla: 18:59.10 ( @dhill ) if you run godoc, that will give you a lot of information

    thestringpuller: No, like mircea_popescu, I am "a difficult student".
    
    thestringpuller: I ask too many questions.
    
    thestringpuller: Question too much authority.
    
    benkay: it's a shame you didn't find a shop where that kind of spirit is encouraged
    
    mircea_popescu: yeah
    
    pgp: interesting - only 43k volume in last 24h...  VERY light trading...
    
    benkay: ready for a rollover?
    
    benkay: << doesn't know what he's saying
    
    pgp: yes, I think so
    
    thestringpuller: benkay: I did find a shop where that is encouraged. Too bad capitalist countries don't condone true entrepreneurship
    
    thestringpuller: I think mircea_popescu is one of the flagship authors on the subject of "pop-culture entrepreneurship in the land of capitalism"
    
    benkay: what is 'true entrepreneurship'?
    
    benkay: and how were you fucked for practicing it?
    
    truff1es: are you libertarian should be the 1st question
    
    thestringpuller: the key to true entrepreneurship means solving a legitimate problem
    
    thestringpuller: pop culture entrepreneurship involves creating a problem that really doesn't exist and marketing a solution to it, to grab the next round of funding from the daddy figure you never had growing up
    
    pgp: yes...  not an "invented" problem...
    
    jurov: ThickAsThieves, I would use some other word than "fractional".. it may have unwanted associations :D

    benkay: see: New Relic
    
    jurov: but it would be rather clever, selling same asicminer shares on multiple places :D
    
    thestringpuller: who was that guy who sold matches...
    
    benkay: Heroku
    
    benkay: Github
    
    benkay: Tesla
    
    benkay: all these all also fall into the bucket of "bullshit we do to make more bullshit for idiots"
    
    thestringpuller: Github is technically useful, but I see where you are going.
    
    thestringpuller: Tesla is still too young.
    
    benkay: "technically useful" bro has you ever done the distributed teams thing?
    
    thestringpuller: Yup. Using SVN
    
    thestringpuller: we begged for github
    
    benkay: github eliminates massive comms overhead
    
    truff1es: what are we talking about?

    thestringpuller: you could either build the automation yourself, or buy it from someone else.
    
    truff1es: -ian
    
    thestringpuller: That's how Atlassian became so big in under a decade.
    
    benkay: I'm missing the last pieces in how you got fucked for practicing some sort of atypical entrepreneurship.
    
    truff1es: if i ask 3rd time does that mean im really really really interested in the answer hmm
    
    benkay: if you ask infinity times does it matter?
    
    thestringpuller: I'm not very political.
    
    mircea_popescu: <thestringpuller> pop culture entrepreneurship involves creating a problem that really doesn't exist and marketing a solution to it, to grab the next round of funding from the daddy figure you never had growing up << amazinglty apt summary
    
    truff1es: it does for our lil discussion here
    
    benkay: liberal, democrat, libertarian are all moronic simplifications
    
    benkay: no human with opinions worth paying attention to is a strict any one of those
    
    benkay: except maybe MM with his "reactionary" thing
    
    truff1es: <thestringpuller> I'm not very political.>>> what does this even mean, u dont vote?
    
    truff1es: MM?
    
    thestringpuller: My political discourse usually involves: allowing people to have a choice, vs. not allowing them to make a choice.
    
    thestringpuller: which is oversimplified
    
    benkay: mencius modbug. if you can't handle MP, you really can't handle MM.
    
    benkay: derp of derp course it's derp over derplified

    benkay: now, MP, what if the borgs are so thoroughly programmed that their filters just escape anything that threatens the binary?
    
    benkay: (to get excessively nerdy with the metaphors)
    
    benkay: sure honesty is great
    
    benkay: but if you need to break through a firewall...
    
    asciilifeform: benkay: moldbug doesn't work on the masses. and he never intended to. his "red pill" is for the intellectually-curious/adventurous, by his own admission.
    
    benkay: who are nonetheless *thoroughly* programmed.
    
    asciilifeform: nowhere on this planet are the unprogrammed to be found en masse.
    
    truff1es: maybe some tribes?
    
    asciilifeform: hence his "red pill" analogy. you need to be someone whose programming is already hickupping to benefit from the pill.
    
    truff1es: he's too verbose and repetitive..
    
    benkay: sure. i hold that "honesty" is incompatible with his goals, which are to further derail already degrading programming.
    
    jurov: he seems to go into lengthy elaborations only to end each article "usg will kill it anyway"
    
    benkay: I don't know that MP cares about convincing a small slice of the American technocracy that the USG is broken and/or dying.

    mircea_popescu: from a certain equitable perspective to present valuer you lose the same.
    
    mircea_popescu: this because the difference between ownership and promise is nil
