davout: BingoBoingo: you're drunk aren'

mircea_popescu: davout no. you get a track id in all executed orders. if it matches the hash of an order of yours then that hit the book and disappeared. if it doesn'
t then your order was on the book and got hit by someone else.
davout: so if it isn'
t in your next stat you conclude it executed
davout: i didn'
t say it wasn'
t possible, i said it was handled in a way that qualifies as "a little weird" in my system
davout: mircea_popescu: iirc the stat doesn'
t tell you about executions for orders that never hit the book
davout: the basic reason to this iirc is that executions that are immediate don'
t appear in stats

t conform.

t that more arbitrage?

t know about this "incident"
chetty: storing value is actually a bet isn'
t it? That there will be a future to use it in.

t spend "knowing how to make an engine", but knowing that I can do that (and having the plans/information to do so) stores value
benkay: greenspan_fan: you don'
t need credits for comments.
greenspan_fan: mircea_popescu as you say, not a problem for reasonably wealthy individuals, but it means that if you don'

t think so. i've been around for a couple discussions on the topic.
benkay: mike_c: did you see mircea_popescu's point a few days ago about the flipside of "you can raise it but you can'
t spend it"?

t want to bother serving locally. but i will probably change that b/c their server is down more than mine.

t support mac
