mircea_popescu: consequently there's no way to outcompete dust txs, cause you don'
t pay a fee to be relayed
mircea_popescu: as in, it's extremely unlikely you won'
t find a debrittleing additive
mircea_popescu: and brittleness doesn'
t sound undefeasible either. maybe you add some guar gum or some shit
mircea_popescu: but locklin doesn'
t strike me as much better honestly.
cads: the worst part is that if you talk to the open 3dp community about setting up defensive publications, they're all like "heck naw. ain'
t gonna be no centralized IP control on open 3dp tech"
cads: I may _need_ a gantry, but I couldn'
t pay more than $800 for it, and this would likely be an insult.
jurov: oka, i did no research and seems i had luck on guys that don'
t think very highly on oral
benkay: "don'
t fuck up my beer now"
benkay: "maybe i'll come down! maybe I won'
t!"
cads: mircea_popescu: I don'
t mind talking about my substance problem - I'm amazed and embarrased - I kicked speed and heroin to the curb back in 2007, but I thought pot and booze were fine. It's shameful that those brought me lower than anything else has. It's... refreshing to finally be in a spot where I can say _no_ drug is _ever_ going to be a good
copumpkin: I could, since my job doesn'
t check, but not particularly interested
cads: not that it's of any consequence (I had to quit, but I don'
t judge)
copumpkin: oh I meant that had I known how harsh their laws were, I wouldn'
t have dreamt of doing that
zebedee_: If you want to sell THB then I'll buy some off you. If you don'
t it's cool.
zebedee_: Oh I thought you had too many. I don'
t have any.
mircea_popescu: or if it is, it's personal rather than cultural. i couldn'
t care less what some japanese dude finds beautiful.
cads: mircea_popescu: now wouldn'
t that have been a sight? two stoned college math students, disproving ZFC
cads: nd C_k to C_k', and for some reason just wasn'
t getting that _forall_ C_k there is an x_k, and that even any C_k' that she could concoct would also have its own fatal x_k'.
cads: it was strange, like a cognitive blindspot - I tried what you suggest, and a few other approaches that I invented just during that conversation (which have been useful in similar situation). I lost a lot of faith in her as a mathematician, but regained it in the morning - she was chattering like a bluejay about how she now sees why she was wrong in her reasoning and why I was right: her intuition was that you can'
t just infinitely exte
mircea_popescu: and when i say most i don'
t mean 51%. i mean 99.9999addnines%
mircea_popescu: why doesn'
t the rape victim "Deal with it" while all the marketing bullshit is punished by 20 to life.
mircea_popescu: i don'
t understand why rape is illegal and marketing is not ffs.
cads: perhaps an incentive structure that doesn'
t force the search engine firm to degrade its search quality in return for profits
cads: thestringpuller: remember when pinkman is in rehab, convincing others to go back out and use? Yeah, I don'
t think I was ever that bad off, lol
mircea_popescu: incidentally, wasn'
t that the most adequate role for pitt ever ?
cads: mircea_popescu: I wasn'
t in a mental state to attempt to compute rational expectations at the time.
cads: still, there is something rough, vulgar, and thriving about this city that I don'
t feel when in, say, pittsburg, or saint louis, or miami
cads: just.. don'
t learn any lessons that are not profitable
cads: hehe, truff1es I hear what you're saying, but surely even you draw limits at a certain point: consider, one may choose not hang out on 4chan. This is the same as ignoring every single member of 4chan. If you believe you have the capacity to filter out all information by directly reading it, then why aren'
t you plugged into every chat in the world, filtering?
cads: mircea_popescu: this is common here in upper management in mid to large scale businesses. My understanding is that when the amounts of money are that large, it becomes profitable to remain private about them. People say "I got the raise!" but don'
t say how much the raise was.
mircea_popescu: i don'
t see where exactly you'd be making 100k a year and have coworkers in the same office making 80.
mircea_popescu: actually i don'
t know anyone nearly as good as her on those forums.
mjr___: i built that first example but it didn'
t have all the backend functionality i wanted
mod6: Yeah it doesn'
t write it self.
mjr___: yeah, but it doesn'
t make a difference
mod6: lol, sorry if I deleted that first one. I didn'
t know that [X] would do that.
mjr___: if anyone else is looking, order updates don'
t work yet
ThickAsThieves: audit of transactions doesn'
t match quantities held in account
Jambo_: i can'
t. i'm engrossed in bitcoin at the moment :P
mjr___: i think version 1 will be rough, but then we can add geolocation, so if someone isn'
t there, their orders will be grayed out (as they couldn'
t be acted upon anywy)
mjr___: so bots can'
t really do well
mircea_popescu: luke clearly isn'
t, and the effects are about the same give or take.
copumpkin: "they're probably trying to mellow me down so I don'
t think they're after me anymore"
copumpkin: poor aethero, honestly. I feel bad for someone that paranoid, although I wouldn'
t wish dealing with them on anyone
damientrog: okay I'm not gonna go further into it, don'
t need to prove myself
damientrog: already co-founded a company worth something close to that, don'
t worry :)
mircea_popescu: there was a screenshot floating about but i don'
t recall where
Namworld: Or a preset issued amount, like x million total. Issuer can sell any portion he wants. That's usually for pre-established businesses that don'
t need to fund acquisitions or whatever.
Tritonio: So if the operator is the one with the right to issue more shares, he could issue them without asking, and possibly decide to keep them all to himself if the contract doesn'
t prohibit that. Of course he would fuck up the company and everyone would probably sell their shares and leave but I mean if the contract doesn'
t stop him, he would be basically running away with the shareholders' money.
mircea_popescu: if the shares vote, then the shareholders do it. if the shares don'
t vote then the operator does it
mircea_popescu: basically i don'
t see anything to set it aside from the whatever, 50 others ?
Namworld: But doesn'
t bring much that SD wasn'
t already providing.
Namworld: 0 confirmation, but semi-account based. You don'
t actually register.
Tritonio: So, as a noob in asset markets I come back with a few questions. 1. Isn'
t the purpose of an IPO to see how much the market is willing to pay? You list for example 1000 shares and then you wait 2 weeks or so for offers. When the IPO is over you start fullfilling orders starting with the highest price per share and going towards the lowest. Did I say something wrong till now?
Diablo-D3: [03:15:58] <nanotube> Diablo-D3: sup. you can use the ;;
t command, to grab title of the last url posted in chan.
nanotube: Diablo-D3: sup. you can use the ;;
t command, to grab title of the last url posted in chan.
jambo_: I wouldn'
t be surprised if they counter-sued
jambo_: they couldn'
t deliver, couldn'
t even get coins for people trying to pay...
benkay: source on the claim that coinlab didn'
t have infrastructure sufficient to handle gox handover?
jambo_: they dont need to, they make mad money and they just went around them because they couldn'
t deliver.
jurov: nyse is bucket shop then, too you can'
t even access IPO directly without going through some intermediary bank
davout: haven'
t bought any yet :-)
mircea_popescu: ThickAsThieves why surprised ? we know they don'
t jhave a business strategist.
davout: dunno, if you take an average 1% fee on the volume it's like 30M USD volume, there's lots of room to cover the costs, don'
t think so?
davout: and that might be because the msb license itself isn'
t enough, but hey, just my opinion
sturles: My guess is that CoinLab wasn'
t ready, but don'
t see themselves as beeing in breach of contract. Transferred customers wouldn'
t be able to transfer funds or trade.
sturles: Those licences aren'
t cheap.
imsaguy: and more importantly, how do you know they hadn'
t started the process for that?
davout: if they aren'
t counterparty to transactions they are an exchange and hold fiat on behalf of third-parties
mircea_popescu: so no, this lawsuit is not ending in a settlement. you can'
t settle egos.
sturles: Obviously CoinLab didn'
t tell him.
davout: well, it's sensible but it's still funny he doesn'
t know shit
