furuknap: It's stll not fuzzy, it's just that people put their feelings of having made the wrong choice into the mix. If I always felt that 2+2=5 and people point out that I'm wrong, it doesn't help if I'm hurt by their words.
furuknap: You could say the same thing about 2+2=4. Can that be wrong if you don't factor in parameters?
furuknap: I couldn't because those factors aren't relevant and doesn't change the math.
furuknap: This math isn't fuzzy :-)
furuknap: :-) They don't hurt, you know.
furuknap: It doesn't even slow down...
furuknap: I'll be out for dinner, feel free to yell at me while I'm gone, I won't be recording anything...
mircea_popescu: zebedee_ reference doesn't work. if you quote the text i can prolly tell you.
zebedee_: Namworld: would do, but need to renew my visa, otherwise I get kicked out. Won't be able to do that with a BTC job, sadly. In a couple of years maybe...
Namworld: We aren't getting paid is the issue, other than attributing some of our owners stake based on work done.
ThickAsThieves: if you don't like it, leave
jurov: so i strated to be neglectful too... but don't mind it much
jborkl: yeah, t least the bots don't bitch on the forum
imsaguy: I can speak assholish too, but I don't think my above comment was structured as such.
imsaguy: he doesn't want to manage them all
TomServo: mircea_popescu: Doesn't Minecraft (only example I could think of) exist outside that model?
mircea_popescu: electronic arts doesn't CREATE games. it just manages the studios that do.
pixilatedbtc: Chaang-Noi, if you don't mind me asking, what are you involved in with BTC? I saw you are quite active on the forum too, but I did not yet read too much there
pixilatedbtc: isn't it new though?
pixilatedbtc: hmmmm, isn't that (the silver guy/game guy thing) about believing he has a certain set of skills in addition to basic "trusting" he will essentially not run away with the money?
mircea_popescu: Isn't civilisation wonderful.
Chaang-Noi: You can't give feedback to yourself!
imsaguy: I haven't listed any trust ratings
imsaguy: and he doesn't trust you
imsaguy: oh right, I have theymos's trust because I haven't done anything
imsaguy: Chaang-Noi: why wouldn't they? any new trust system takes bootstrapping, thus isn't very useful in its early days
thestringpuller: Success doesn't exist.
furuknap: Indeed. Or that, simply, the stuff you see survive aren't the things that died :-)
furuknap: If you do get satoshis but your address isn't on that list, then the mystery is solved.
ThickAsThieves: isn't this a No and closed?
ThickAsThieves: don't even have to go that far
Namworld: I don't think it's really worth it without the trade-in
Namworld: 55 BTC for 15 Ghs... Can't it be traded for the ASIC rig?
Neil: I note with amusement that "nielsio" of youtube "Don't by bitcoins" fame has now disabled comments on all the three videos. I guess it's his way of eating humble pie...
Neil: mircea_popescu: You didn't sleep last night? Or not in Romania?
mircea_popescu: Neil just because you're paranoid dones't mean the network isn't out to get you.
mircea_popescu: since the spring fork i can't see 1 hr blocks w/o thinking omfg don't tell me, again ?!
kakobrekla: money that he didn't have deposited in his account. Because of this I
kakobrekla: credited from him 150.000 USD, that he didn't deposit in his account,
jurov: .. as long as you don't try to exchange bitcoins. ic.
orkaa: it doesn't change anything
jurov: actually fox news doesn't, too. afaik
orkaa: eyetalian, so girls shouldn't wear short skirts 'cause they give guys a reason to rape them
furuknap: And then I told him, "you can't put that there!" and then just walked away. It was hillarious.
jurov: it doesn't matter if they are randoms. they have a right to trial, usg denies it
mircea_popescu: do you have complete and indisputable proof they aren't ?
eyetalian: LR wasn't *just* a paypal for crooks
jurov: obv MPEx doesn't have an api for that
deadweasel: i don't even want to know canadian
mircea_popescu: you didn't say FISSION NUCLEAR REAKTORS
Scrat: can't expel heat fast enough
Scrat: didn't work well
ThickAsThieves: those aren't real bids, just a bot
mircea_popescu: no they didn't go to me lol.
mircea_popescu: im sorry, i don't see much more than "how dare other people offer what i'm trying to sell for less than i want for it".
mircea_popescu: the world doesn't start and end when you move.
ThickAsThieves: !t s.bbet
mircea_popescu: $t s.bbet
mircea_popescu: i don't snoop nearly to the degree everyone assumes.
mircea_popescu: i still don't see how 10k shares is a lot
ThickAsThieves: and i assume this asset won't see any divs for quite a while
deadweasel: i thought that for a split second, but when I didn't get it, I was sure it was just trollin ;)
deadweasel: usagi, no idea what you're talking about, totally don't care. but how is the silver biz?
mircea_popescu: this is niot how it works. they who are worth millions hire a consultant. those who aren't worth millions pray.
mircea_popescu: but as a general rule of thumb, if they don't speak english they probably don't have the english brain rot either.
thestringpuller: I can't get out of this country fast enough...
saulimus: just noticed btcjam doesn't show APR for the listings, annoying.
saulimus: hmm, I didn't find it
deadweasel: depends on that cost, I don't think it's been discovered yet. Historically it's probably too high to pursue.
mircea_popescu: realistically i don't imagine he can justify the costs of so doing.
mircea_popescu: KRS1 fwiw i don't buy his entire "had the tab open must have acciodentally typed in" theory.
ThickAsThieves: at first i though OneFixt wasn't worth following, but he's turning out to be pretty good at this
KRS1: Yeah I send spam but I'm often thanked for it. I'm a sysadmin 14+ yrs..I touch everything from web servers to SAN's and switches, virtualization, I.T. security.
mircea_popescu: which is why this is important : proof that no, they don't just want the data.
mircea_popescu: this latest event is clear proof this ain't the case. the guy was meticulously keeping track of customers.
ThickAsThieves: i don't wanna deal over a forum
mjr_: no matter what, there is no way to guarantee that there isn't another copy
mircea_popescu: but this isn't how it works. you don't abstractly create relations between unrelated in fact items
mircea_popescu: and i can't even remember his name or anything
mircea_popescu: and then wasn't heard from again
mircea_popescu: i mean literally, exact same design. and then PRETENDED HE DIDN'T CLONE IT
Namworld: You can't
thestringpuller: I was more livid I didn't get to cash my calls before the huge "crash"
furuknap: Whoops, sorry, didn't realize the rest of the world was still semi-sane.
jurov: you can say it here, we aren't banning you :D
usagi: I don't think theymos abuses his power, I just think he is naieve. He's young.
jurov: so, i should do "imo", "imho" but you don't need to?
jurov: i don't feel much need to defend myself. i wanted to understand.
jurov: where did i say mpex isn't a third party?
jurov: as i said, no mood to flame, especially when i don't see your point.
jurov: mpex is the solution for me. so for me it has a solution. for you it doesn't have a solution. problem solved.
jurov: you could clearly write that *you* don't trust him. that was what i actually understood, but it was very unclearly written
jurov: i don't get you. of course mp is the third party. and?
jurov: so mpex can't be trusted either, how else should i understand it?
ThickAsThieves: I'm American, all systems of measurement revolve around us, haven't you heard?
jurov: ThickAsThieves: you really can't give utc times?i had minor mindfuck from the combination of murican timezone and pm suffix
furuknap: AMC is a mess. There really aren't any prettier ways to say it.
ThickAsThieves: eric, it is and it isn't
ThickAsThieves: although, don't you invest in cognitive?
furuknap: Wheee! Sadly, due to moving expenses, I don't have any freely available fiat to buy.
