artifexd: So "suspect to be sx" means "suspect to be a malicious node".
artifexd: OH! When he says sx and sy, he is referring to nodes, but more specifically, they are malicious nodes.
artifexd: I have not. A sybil attack is something that I thought I understood.
artifexd: The phrase "ignoring what I suspect to be sx" throws me.
artifexd: Can you explain what sx and sy are?
artifexd: It feels like much is missing.
artifexd: kakobrekla: Is that article from #bitcoin-assets logs or a summary of a verbal discussion.
artifexd: Groupthink is the problem, right? At least as far as it is not immediately visible as such.
artifexd: I had assumed in your example that n(2) didn't rate you at all for that specific scenario.
artifexd: If n(2) were to rate you based soley on n(1)'s rating, yeah, that'd be groupthink.
artifexd: There are multiple ratings that exist only to move aethero's rating in a specific direction.
artifexd: And in doing so, group think should be visible.
artifexd: n(2) would probably look at all the ratings given to thestringpuller and make his own jugement.
artifexd: How is that a problem? n(1) could rate you appropriately. n(2) could not.
artifexd: Well it wouldn't be just script kiddies and bots. If mircea_popescu were to rate someone as something and then everyone else in here were to rate that same person as that same thing, it would have the same effect.
artifexd: Then kakobrekla says "How does that help?" How does that help what and in what way?
artifexd: So actors A and B were good, trustworthy people until they fucked up. But actor C only sees one of them fuck up. <- Am I tracking so far?
artifexd: What does "herps derps legit things" mean?
artifexd: What does "herps derps legit things" mean?
artifexd: I got the whole "If too much of the wot acts in unison, it largely defeats the point of a wot" part. It was the last part about only witnessing half the herp derping that lost me.
artifexd: Not from investing in things I found here, but from not losing money from investing in things not found here.
artifexd: I'd be so much richer if I had found this channel a year ago....
artifexd: As for my enterprise, I endeavor to turn desires into running code.
artifexd: I'd like to be there. My wife tells me that I shall go next year.
artifexd: Why internet chat if you're in a bar chatting in person?
artifexd: ThickAsThieves: FWIW, metabyte has been booted as founder of #altcoin and now the founder is listed as freenode-staff.
artifexd: It is no hurry. It is no big deal.
artifexd: Staffers have been kinda lacking the last few hours.
artifexd: Oh. Look at you. Doing it yourself. Awesome.
artifexd: The fact that the founder of the channel is long absent and his nickserv account is expired make it much easier.
artifexd: I can point them at the bitcointalk thread. And say, "See ThickAsThieves created the project. He says I am a rep. Don't believe me? Ask him."
artifexd: If you recognize me as a rep, I'm a rep.
artifexd: Pop into #freenode. Ask a staffer to transfer control. Answer whatever questions he has. (Is it open source? Etc...)
artifexd: He hasn't authed with nickserv in 19 weeks.
artifexd: The founder is metabyte. He registered the channel over a year ago. Hasn't been in it for...
artifexd: I want to set a topic to reduce the amount of OMGBBQCoin questions.
artifexd: You have control over therealaltcoin.org, right?
artifexd: I'm trying to grab control of #altcoin.
artifexd: Can you appoint me as an altcoin representative?
artifexd: Yeah. Gotta be ident for assbot to pay you any mind
artifexd: And, fwiw, my feelings aren't *still* hurt. :)
artifexd: It absolutely does not hurt to occasionally think, "How easily could I be replaced by a small shell script?"
artifexd: I guess the programmers weren't perceived as fungible at Clinkle.
artifexd: Is ThickAsThieves in Romania yet? I need his help.
artifexd: Blockchain.info bought bitcoin.com?
artifexd: mircea_popescu`: I was too slow
artifexd: AM almost has gen 3 ready so the difficulty will probably start spiking again in a month or two.
artifexd: I am not aware of a single asic currently available that will ever make its money back.
artifexd: TestingUnoDosTre: That translates to effectively never
artifexd: I imagine it would work with any sha256 coin.
artifexd: The ice-fury usb is the one I had up when I asked
artifexd: mrstickball: Are the "in stock" statements on your site accurate?
artifexd: ;;later tell bitcoinpete You may want to increase the left margin on your ul,ol under media="all". As it is currently, it prevents your footnote labels from showing more than a single digit.
artifexd: Now if your nick matches your wot, you can pm assbot and !up yourself.
artifexd: It would prevent flailing about in public. ;)
artifexd: You can do all that in a pm channel with gribble.
artifexd: Vexual, get in the wot already
artifexd: It would be nice to be able to retroactively !b a part of the log. The conversation with Naphex about 5 hours ago was pretty interesting.
artifexd: jborkl: Dude! That is a seriously massive improvement!
artifexd: That will be a herculean effort.
artifexd: Speaking of bots, who runs ozbot?
artifexd: Does anyone else read !up and !down as "not up" and "not down"?
artifexd: I knew that. It just seemed like something you would write. Anti-CA and all.
