FabianB: pasted his nickserv pw into -otc
cazalla: topkek
ninjashogun: lol yeah, luckily they're nice people and changed it for me rather than troll. can't imagine what would have happened in tihs channel.
ninjashogun: it's kind of weird how you guys have all the money, and they're the ones who are serious.
dub: nice password
chetty: actually someone did the pw thing yesterday and it was nicely pointed out they should now change their pw
FabianB: !up Dekker3D
Dekker3D: Thanks, FabianB
moiety: hello all
moiety: quite scared to look at the logs
FabianB: why?
Dekker3D: Why are the logs scary? Strange things going bump in the night?
FabianB: don't think so
ninjashogun: who wants to make a multiple return on $30K. You're welcome to bid or ask questions. Low multiple bids likely to win. http://pastebin.com/gMF5WRuP
assbot: Ninjashogun prospectus - 04-07-2014 Key facts: Through Saturday, July 5, 2 - Pastebin.com
cazalla: today has been quiet
ninjashogun: cazalla, welll, here you go then :)
cazalla: where do i send the money?
ninjashogun: I mean "low-multiple bids", e.g. not something crazy like a very high number of x. However, I realize that the istuation may be seen to include some risk, so bid whatever you want.
ninjashogun: cazalla - we can talk about it. We can actually escrow it, you can send it straight to some of the legal services involved, when I meet with VC's (you can come!) you can pay for some of the costs, and legal review of the closing docs we're given. These are the major expenses.
FabianB: 1 dogecent for 20%
ninjashogun: Oh, no the bid is on $30K, what multpile covers your risk (and a timeframe). I can tell you more about both comapnies of course - and feel free to PM.
ninjashogun: For some reference, to set expectations, in the other channel (-otc) I've gotten bids on part of the money as low as 1.6x. However, the starting bid for the whole thing was something crazy.
Dekker3D: Could someone voice indiancandy1 again?
Dekker3D: She's the same one from last time.
Dekker3D: FabianB, could you voice her?
cazalla: !up indiancandy1
Dekker3D: As far as I know, mircea's "anyway, drop your address" means that she should put her bitcoin address in here, anywhere. I'd write it for her, but it's more trustworthy if I just vouch for her and she writes it
indiancandy1: 1C2GHDcNxzZfnVBD9EyY95WPuhXtatJDfa
Dekker3D: By the way, if I may ask: is the whole "0.1 btc for a pic of tits" thing like a promotional stunt to get hot chicks in here, or is it just what it says it is?
chetty: Dekker3D, I think only MP can answer about the true purpose of what he does
assbot: #bitcoin-assets log
indiancandy1: ask chetty
indiancandy1: shes chool
Dekker3D: Ah. She knows more about mircea's shenanigans then?
chetty: ninjashogun, I cant see why anyone would put money into "Both businesses are stealth, however a bit can be discussed publicly:"
FabianB: asciilifeform: did you have a look at https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/mycelium-entropy ?
assbot: Mycelium Entropy | Indiegogo
punkman: !up ninjashogun
Dekker3D: It seems I can register on the web of trust using a bitcoin address instead of a gpg key?
FabianB: yes
Dekker3D: How would I do that? Do I need to extract my private key from my wallet to sign something? because I'm using Mycelium.
FabianB: if you have bitcoin-qt for example and can sign with the address
FabianB: dunno mycelium
Dekker3D: It doesn't do message signing
Dekker3D: But at least I suppose it can make things easier for indiancandy1. She has a blockchain.info wallet
cazalla: are you her pimp or something?
Dekker3D: I'm her tech dude
ninjashogun: thanks. They're both high-tech startups, albeit of two different kinds. The public pastebin doesn't include too much informatoin but of course I expect you to learn about both. They're both just doing their seed rounds now - the first acutaly already has assigned IP, etc, and has developed (the basics of) interesting technology. As it's hardware, it's quite hard to seed and we need to keep vigilant about stealth but I c
ninjashogun: an tell a bit more to anyone who's interested.
Dekker3D: Here on the internet, the difference is tiny :P
ninjashogun: The second one is in a really huge market - even before it had a NAME it had offers at high six-figure valuations, however I wanted to be able to pursue both of them.
ninjashogun: The second is a services / consulting company in the field of jobs. cf. hired.com
Dekker3D: She'll need to exchange bitcoin for gbp at some point, which would likely require #bitcoin-otc. Which requires registration in the web of trust, afaik. And if she wants to earn more with shenanigans, as this other girl did, then she'll also likely need to be in the web of trust.
Dekker3D: So I'm trying to find an easy way to get her into the web of trust.
cazalla: ninjashogun: can you call me to discuss further?
ninjashogun: cazalla - yes, absolutely. For cost reasons we could start by skype first. (You'll also see the name of one!)
ninjashogun: PM me your skype name and we can talk in 5 min.
cazalla: i don't have skype but i have a landline for you to call
FabianB: !up Dekker3D
ninjashogun: cazalla, have you ever invested in anyone/anything? if we proceeded, would you be able to give a reference?
ninjashogun: (Assuming you became interested.)
cazalla: ever heard of a lil company named labcoin?
ninjashogun: I have now. Google results don't look great :-D :-D
FabianB: Dekker3D: gpg is probably easier if you're not already using bitcoin-qt
ninjashogun: Check Google :-D
cazalla: if you're unable to afford to call me i'll assume you're not a serious player
ninjashogun: I didn't need a reference now.
assbot: [MPEX] [S.MPOE] 18700 @ 0.00081624 = 15.2637 BTC [+]
Dekker3D: True.
ninjashogun: I was just asking if you would be able to furnish one.
ninjashogun: assuming you became interested.
ninjashogun: If this would be the first time you invested in anything/anyone then we might still proceed but I'd like to know this ahead of time.
cazalla: my money is no good?
ninjashogun: cazalla - the issue is, I don't know. You could waste weeks of my time. (It's happened before - that's post-closing documents. meaning, everything has been agreed and closed.)
ninjashogun: cazalla, I might still be able to work with you. Maybe if this would be a first investment for you, you can team up with someone from here and do it together.
cazalla: i'm gonna need that phone call before we proceed
ninjashogun: cazalla, I have a lot going on including raising this bridge from my exisitng network and VC network.
ninjashogun: cazalla, OK. PM me your number, I'll call you soon.
cazalla: 61+ 02 6131 3000
ninjashogun: thanks. give me 10, call you soon.
FabianB: !up indiancandy1
chetty: !up ninjashogun
ninjashogun: thanks, chetty. cazalla, I Googled your number to try to do some basic DD. https://www.google.com/search?q="61%2B+02+6131+3000"
assbot: "61+ 02 6131 3000" - Google Search
ninjashogun: cazalla, now you see why I need a reference. It's very easy to waste someone's time.
cazalla: just explain your scheme to them
chetty: ususally the one asking for money gives references
assbot: [MPEX] [S.MPOE] 6080 @ 0.00081599 = 4.9612 BTC [-]
ninjashogun: chetty - not in my world.
ninjashogun: chetty - money is easy. Finding people who are interested in building something together and have the connections to help is harder.
chetty: if I want to give money without refs there are plenty of beggars on the street corner
ninjashogun: chetty - yes, I agree. If you want to give money but have no references, they're the only ones who will take it from you.
ninjashogun: cazalla - btw the above - linking "Contact - Australian Federal Police" - is exactly why I call this channel useless trolls. It takes about 15 seconds of talking with me to determine who I am and what I'm doing.
indiancandy1: register <money1> <businessenquiriesforshanti@gmail.com>
indiancandy1: im confused
indiancandy1: dekker dissapoeared
ninjashogun: cazalla, now you also see why if you've never invested in anything or anyone, why I don't want to offer to be the first.
FabianB: indiancandy1: msg that to NickServ, not in this channel and without the < and >
FabianB: indiancandy1: and of course use a different password
ninjashogun: chetty - I will also say this. How come VC's (venture capitalists) don't get scammed - when they write six, and seven-figure checks? If you Google "vc's scammed":
assbot: vc firm scammed - Google Search
indiancandy1: where and who
ninjashogun: you get only stories about founders (like me) being the ones to get scammed by the people who supposedly hvae the money. Why is that? Because due dilligence is actually quite easy to perform.
indiancandy1: is nickserv
indiancandy1: where i find out
FabianB: indiancandy1: you can start a pm with nickserv by /query NickServ
indiancandy1: where is he
ninjashogun: nickserv is just an automated system, you send it messages via "/msg nickserv"
indiancandy1: ths is joke
indiancandy1: so i type it
indiancandy1: in here
ninjashogun: indiancandy1, go to #freenode for help
ninjashogun: they will help you
indiancandy1: so i type that here
indiancandy1: and it wil take me there
FabianB: indiancandy1: type "/query nickserv" wherever
FabianB: indiancandy1: you'll be in a tab with nickserv where you can procede with registering
chetty: ninjashogun, I dont think VC lets it make the news when they get scammed ...they get even
ninjashogun: chetty - no, it just doesn't happen. I know VC's. I know founders. Scams just don't happen after you do due dilligence.
ninjashogun: chetty, why do you think I have to spend my own money to get six-figure investments from them? Couldn't I just send a prospectus and have them wire some cash? It doesn't work like that. You need to do a TON and have a ton of meetings with them, sohw them EVERYTHING in minute detail.
chetty: absolutes are dangerous
assbot: Backing out of a term sheet | chris dixon's blog
ninjashogun: see that?
ninjashogun: "The best VC in the world, Sequoia Capital, whose companies account for an astounding 10% of NASDAQ’s market cap, has (according to trustworthy sources) only backed out on one term sheet in the last 10 years."
ninjashogun: You absolutely can talk in absolutes.
ninjashogun: meanwhile, cazalla's reference for me (unsure of releatoinship) has all of its top Google hits be about how it's a scam.
moiety: ;; later tell mircea_popescu kik is just an instant messaging app but it works across all platforms and has lots of wee add-ons. i like kik
gribble: The operation succeeded.
moiety: indiancandy1: if you need a hand registering with gribble and nickserv, feel free to PM me
FabianB: ;;ticker --last
gribble: 631.63
ninjashogun: Anyway, it sounds like nobody here has actually helped start startup-type businesses (off bitcoin), so I'm not going to waste more of my time. If someone is interested in learning more about either of the businesses I'm currently raising funds ahead of the seed round of, then you can PM me and I can give you all the details.
ninjashogun: thanks for your time.
moiety: it's been emotional ninjashogun
chetty: moiety, +1
ninjashogun: moiety - it's been a 100% explicit proof of what I've been saying for the past few months whenever I've been here. Tihs channel is useless trolls. Cazalla "gave me his number" to call and discuss further (normally, quite a normal first step!!!) Except he gave Australian's police number. Useless trolling.

dub: he needs 30 grand to setup meetings with vc's
moiety: unsure but he has an incredible skill for answering thingswith such long convoluted answers, you dont care by the end
dub: because as an OG startup entreprenure, he doesnt have $30k or a credit card

Dekker3D: "white knighting". Ow, right in the ego. But, I'm legally considered to be handicapped so I don't really have a job.
Dekker3D: It's a psychological thing where I quite literally can't get started on certain types of stuff.

mircea_popescu: Dekker3D i'm asking
mircea_popescu: punkman yes.
Dekker3D: A psychologist and a neurologist agreed that I won't be able to find a job because of that psychological thing. So, they declared me "unfit for work".
Dekker3D: Hard to translate.
mircea_popescu: Dekker3D not that hard. let's see here.
Dekker3D: I get 70% of minimum wage. If I take up a job, it fills in the reminaining 30% until I get more than 100% minimum wage, at which point the ... allowance thing drops away

Dekker3D: mircea_popescu, I've read almost all of it by now. The main distinction here is that SSI is assumed to be poor people who receive money because otherwise they'd riot, and SSDI is assumed to be people who have worked and who simply can't anymore.
mircea_popescu: "The Post is making a bet that you won't know the difference between SSDI and SSI, and you wouldn't, no one does, it's deliberately obfuscated and frequently conflated. They are totally different in terms of origin, budget and consequence, but both rely on "disability." The only person who does know the difference is a guy actually on SSDI, so that when you ask him, "how long have you been on SSI?" he will freeze, pu
mircea_popescu: ll out a knife, place it calmly on the table, and say, "listen lung transplant, I'm not on SSI, I'm on SSDI. I worked.""
mircea_popescu: the man says.

Dekker3D: C++, some Java and C#
Dekker3D: I've been doing a tiny bit of Python lately, though I absolutely loathe everything about it.
Dekker3D: It lacks curly braces and instead uses indentation. That's the main thing I hate.
mircea_popescu: i think most everyone here loves python and loathes perl
mircea_popescu: except for the weirdo frenchies into ruby and other appalling shit.
Dekker3D: you can't visually tell the difference between spaces and tabs, in sufficient amounts, and it complains if you use tabs in a piece of code that uses spaces elsewhere. For obvious reasons, but some people use tabs and some use spaces.
mircea_popescu: well python is trying its best to be like lisp
Dekker3D: It's interpreted and weakly typed, afaik. You can even add stuff to classes on the fly. That allows a lack of structure
mircea_popescu: and that means copying all the idiocy.

Namworld: I knew I shouldn't have invested more than I could afford to lose. That's why I put my savings and took a small loan to buy 900 BTC for 7000 USD back then.

assbot: Get Educated About Homosexuality - YouTube
mircea_popescu: so the argument towards homosexuality not being subjective is that well, twins are both homosexual in 70% of cases (unaudited, just what it claims) which then they compare with "being left handed".
Dekker3D: "christian" thinks homosexuality is a choice. Yep. This is starting perfectly.
mircea_popescu: except... being left handed is not a behaviour. homosexuality is.
mircea_popescu: if one of two twins eats at mcdonalds, 90% odds are the other does too.
mircea_popescu: so mcdonalds is thus genetic ?
mircea_popescu: no, it's just pervasive cultural norm. behaviours spread from trusted sources, and a twin has better thances than a guy on youtube to persuade.
Dekker3D: Well, if it were a choice.. why wouldn't everyone choose to be bisexual? More options!
chetty: left handiness can be cured, just ask the nuns with rulers
mircea_popescu: oddly enough, this is supported by practice. slavegirls are bisexual.
Dekker3D: That's sarcastic, right?
Dekker3D: Heh.
mircea_popescu: Dekker3D no, it actually can be cured. it's just painful.
mircea_popescu: but anyway, let me in passing register my displeasure with "scientists have". is it so fucking hard to say " McGee and Jonk have " ?
chetty: but consensus is a new law in science, hadnt you heard?
mircea_popescu: yeah right.,
mircea_popescu: anyway this female antibody theory has got to be the laugh of all time
Dekker3D: Yeah, the antibody thing looked silly
mircea_popescu: chetty get a load of this : female body perceives male foetus as foreign, and generates unspecified "antibodies". the more boys a woman has, the more adept she is at this
mircea_popescu: and so the more she "feminizes" the fetus. intrauterine-ly.
chetty: omg, thats ridiculous
mircea_popescu: nothing to do with sexualisation pressures among groups of boys, or anything.
mircea_popescu: here's a simple solution : in any large population of males, some will be gay because the other want something to fuck.
mircea_popescu: someTHING to fuck.
mircea_popescu: problem solved.
chetty: well since women have fewer children these days the number of gays should be going down if this is true, pretty easy to check :P
mircea_popescu: definitely works a lot better to explain prison homosexuality, unless prison buildings ALSO secrete hormones.
mircea_popescu: chetty funny how many ways there are to show broken "scientists agree" is broken.
chetty: if it wasn't so easy it would be fun
test532451243214: "scientists agree" is pretty useless if you can't link to actual results
test532451243214: I mean.. two rocket scientists could agree that homosexuality is or isn't a choice.
test532451243214: Scientists would be agreeing, but it would prove absolutely nothing :P
mircea_popescu: test532451243214 even more useless if those "scientists" are people being paid a salary by a government, as an idle exercise in trying to create jerbs.
Dekker3D: Wanted to find out some nickserv stuff
Dekker3D: I suppose so.
Dekker3D: "creating jobs" seems like the wrong goal anyway. More and more jobs are being replaced by robots. We should be focusing on a society that can handle mass automation
mircea_popescu: that society is selective.
mircea_popescu: democratic structures wish to promote inclusive societies.
mircea_popescu: there's no solution to this problem.
chetty: buggy makers found ways
mircea_popescu: chetty automotive society is inclusive. that part was easy.
Dekker3D: Ah. You're saying that those who aren't smart enough to be irreplacable would always find themselves left out, in a world where automation runs rampant?
mircea_popescu: chetty the idea was "everyone a car" see ?
mircea_popescu: Dekker3D exactly.
chetty: everyone a robot :P
mircea_popescu: selective. must be this tall to ride.
mircea_popescu: inclusive. everyone's invited.

Dekker3D: The same argument applies to bitcoin: nobody really believes it'll kill off half of humanity if left unchecked.

thestringpuller: you can pay off a miner in about 140 days (given consistent difficulty increases and no extra capital investment)...
Dekker3D: High price = lots of miners buying equipment = lots of hashrate; low price after that = lots of miners who can't afford to run their equipment = lowering hashrate

nubbins`: popular in some places apparently
thestringpuller: Dekker3D: "equal opportunity" << this isn't socialism...
kakobrekla: weird. i cant even produce that sign with my keyboard.
thestringpuller: hustle for the fruits of your labor
Dekker3D: True, but it beats having a worse opportunity than the rest.
thestringpuller: ```````````````
thestringpuller: why because of "fairness"?
thestringpuller: that's knocking the hustle because you can't make the same connections other people make...
Dekker3D: If I can choose between having the same opportunities as everyone else, or being behind a group of others, I'll choose having the same opportunities
Dekker3D: Hence why I mined Scrypt, not SHA
nubbins`: kakobrekla, it's shift-` for me
kakobrekla: no, i know where it is suppose to be, i just have it remapped.
Dekker3D: I have no connections in ASIC producing companies, no. Making connections has always been one of my weaker points.
indiancandy1: dekker
indiancandy1: holland are through
indiancandy1: in the world cup
Dekker3D: Neat.
Dekker3D: One more team to beat and they're the world champion for the first time in.. 4 decades or so? I don't really even keep track of football.
thestringpuller: Dekker3D: that's cause you aren't chinese and have access to workers who will fab chips for < $2 / hr
thestringpuller: and don't have*
thestringpuller: but as well Dekker3D people have found away around the memory wall on SCRYPT and alas are producing parallelized chips for that algo...
Dekker3D: I know
thestringpuller: are they not entitlted to their hustle?
thestringpuller: their hardwork?
indiancandy1: HUP HUP HOLLAND !!
Dekker3D: I used to mine Scrypt. I don't anymore
Dekker3D: I'm not saying they're not. I'm just saying I'm getting the fuck out, and mining something that hasn't been ASIC'd yet
thestringpuller: haha I'm trying to find a way around that, hustle with the asics
Dekker3D: ... Well, as soon as I get around to replacing a water pump. I did some silly things in setting up my mining rig. It wasn't all that serious anyway.
Dekker3D: Cool. If you find a way and don't mind sharing, I'd love to hear about it
thestringpuller: i dunno how mature the market is: people liek lunaminer and petaminer are making it a bit...difficult
Dekker3D: But until then, I'm going with GPU/CPU-only coins over ASIC-minable coins.
thestringpuller: like the days of GIGAMINING
Dekker3D: Hm. You were planning to actually make connections, targetting a specific company?
thestringpuller: seems within mining infrastructure there is always a scam on some level...
kakobrekla: <thestringpuller> are they not entitlted to their hustle? < no., cause http://bash.bitcoin-assets.com/?quote=194

thestringpuller: point taken kako ~_~
thestringpuller: when you're hustlin' to scam, it ain't really hustling now is it?
Dekker3D: Yep, thestringpuller
Dekker3D: Always some scam
mircea_popescu: <kakobrekla> you get ticks there. << i think you only get ticks if does live thre.

mircea_popescu: i don't think i ever had a tick

mircea_popescu: Dekker3D> I'm not saying they're not. I'm just saying I'm getting the fuck out, and mining something that hasn't been ASIC'd yet << this is like saying you'll farm a product that's not globalized yet.
mircea_popescu: the only reason it's not been globalised is that it sucks.
mircea_popescu: <thestringpuller> seems within mining infrastructure there is always a scam on some level... << quite.
Dekker3D: Or because it takes a while to develop ASICs and would only be started when it looks profitable enough?
mircea_popescu: which means...
Dekker3D: That you can use the gpu you already have to make a bit of profit mining some new algorithm before ASICs show up
thestringpuller: dogecoin anyone?
Dekker3D: And when ASICs show up, you can just go to the next big thing.
Dekker3D: Litecoin was before Dogecoin. Dunno about other Scrypt altcoins before that
Dekker3D: Darkcoin attempts to do the same thing again, though I know another altcoin had the same algorithm earlier

benkay: hey my imagination counts
benkay: despite all my rage, i am still just a derp in a cage
mircea_popescu: 'Yes! I have!' Ruska groaned in agony, lying on his back tightly clutching the pillow to him. He breathed into it, and the pillow returned the warmth of his own youth, condemned to spend itself in the bitter sterility of bringing to a white heat his young, caged body which begged for release and found none. He wanted to believe that he had a girl, but he had nothing at all to go on - not even a kiss, or a promise. Ther
mircea_popescu: e had been nothing more than a look of sympathy on a girl's face as she had listened to him, earlier that evening, telling his story. And for the first time, seeing himself mirrored in the girl's eyes, Ruska felt there was something heroic and out of the ordinary about his life. There was nothing between them yet, but he felt something had happened that gave him the right to say he had a girl.
Dekker3D: !up indiancandy1
mircea_popescu: 'Who is she?' Gleb asked.
mircea_popescu: Raising the blanket just a little Ruska answered from the darkness: 'Shhh - Clara-'
mircea_popescu: 'Clara? The prosecutor's daughter?'
