Namworld: I don't see hashing having much of an impact.
benkay: just because fpgas and gpus don't burn up implies nothing about quality of current bitcoin hashers
benkay: i don't play in the space, but i thought they were like 15k
smickles: kakobrekla: i hadn't seen those charts of yours before. Would it be tough for you to add a 1 month chart?
smickles: jborkl: Thanks for the instructions. The only thing is that you shouldn't need pympex to get the MPEx gui to work, otherwise I'd be breaking pympex's license
unbalanced: Namworld: I agree, I don't know where it'll be in a year or 5 but I can't see it back at 2.50.
Namworld: I'm waiting for the price to go down. Even if it doesn't... well I have a fair amount of BTC even if not much.
smickles: also, people have been scammed b/c i didn't rate people
benkay: but while we're on the topic, what was the actual point you were trying to make? i can't read it through all the funny.
benkay: need is such a strong word. typically used by people who don't really understand what it is to need a thing.
pigeons: i don't know, he ownse some options on his own shares and some JAH mining shares
mpexbot: i wasn;t,no
smickles: jurov: the broken link thing happens when the bot hasn't seen someone start a line with the given word
jurov: would move it to bf and sell there, if g.sdice wasn't ghost town :(
kakobrekla: >I don't do finance
iz: getting the tag isn't
ThickAsThieves: scamming isn't a crime?
BitHub: isn't gox being pressured into this deal with coinlab?
BitHub: wasn't it a lie? Their press release
Bowjob: "It's okay, looks aren't everything."
BitHub: but looks aren't the most important
Bowjob: I told her, looks don;t matter
jurov: http://www.theregister.co.uk/2013/03/19/carna_botnet_ipv4_internet_map/ seems 420000 node botnet isn't so hard to build after all
jurov: wtf, they don't have detachable cord?
Bowjob: well, if they really are greedy, they wouldn't have shipped asics to the public
mircea_popescu: i dion't get this part
pigeons: which shouldn't violate my agreement not to post it publically, bu i dont know
mjr_: i don't think so...
mjr_: i can't do the bitcointalk forum
mircea_popescu: person can't spell fund, is big time mover and shaker with experience and etc.
Diablo-D3: blockchain.info doesn't have a json api does it
Diablo-D3: the problem with SD is it doesn't do a huge pot
Diablo-D3: pci-e slot SSDs don't magically get more performance
Diablo-D3: but BDB uses so much disk IO to just read the db, that your CPU isn't the bottleneck
Diablo-D3: BingoBoingo: I think you didn't listen to what I said
BingoBoingo: BDB tends to lock into the single smallest discrete uniti it can find to run it, BDB probably wont't use all of those cores Bulldozer is offering, but I would believe reputable benchmarks that say otherwise...
BingoBoingo: Diablo-D3 the single integer ALU BDB will try to lock into probably won't keep up either...
Diablo-D3: but it just doesn't matter, with bdb, your disk cant keep up
Diablo-D3: BingoBoingo: its that 0.7.x and earlier doesn't use threads to check the chain in parallel
Diablo-D3: BingoBoingo: anyhow, what I was saying is, its not that BDB doesn't do parallel thats the issue
Diablo-D3: and the reason I say ext4 over ext3 is ext3 isn't optimized for TRIM
BingoBoingo: sure Diable-D3, but BDB doesn't scale over multiple cores very well
Diablo-D3: Chaang-Noi: the problem is it can't do automatic TRIM on its own
BingoBoingo: The old 0.7.2+ would probably load fastest on an i7 because BDB doesn't parallelize well, 0.8.X and later on an AMD chip I imagine; an SSD makes a bigger bifference than any processor though
Diablo-D3: it doens't need to have a lot of raw throughput
pigeons: if we don't get these tu.silver books maybe we can get a scammer tag
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu Do they sell silver that small or is there a swing people aren't showing... Coinabul shows 0.5 BTC for an once of silver... I think Usagi is awfully bullish or lubed numbers up to extract them from a convenient place
mircea_popescu: so unless someone is willing to reserve a shitton of btc i can't buy my puts ?
BingoBoingo: Aren't the asks on TU.SIlver all showing a hefty premium over actual silver+shipping?
pigeons: that would also be overpriced, because it doesn't include the usagi factor
mircea_popescu: bugpowder didn't say a word in here about it ?!
mircea_popescu: trade can't occur because asicminer doesn't have or understand financial management.
pigeons: the operators are all here, which one don't you trust?
mircea_popescu: anyway, 6 months, 1% per month over dividends paid, we'll have to lock it to an exchange as i don't deal in vapour
mircea_popescu: bgupta one doesn't, mostly. it's jsut the empty chatter of whatever.
mircea_popescu: everyone's like "meh. haven't been there in X years"
mircea_popescu: Chaang-Noi not in any conventional sense i don't think
toffoo: they don't charge 30 btc to join
mircea_popescu: wasn't this supposed to be 1 and etc ?
mircea_popescu: so it couldn't have been
staco: didn't the bot sell the puts?
mircea_popescu: T options expire on the 29th
mircea_popescu: yea well, let's just say i'm a lucky sort. haven't been outgunned yet.
mircea_popescu: this, incidentally, is the path towards a harem of wives who aren't particularly inclined to cheat, among other goodies.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: I argue that, just as it is better to have a wife who doesn't cheat, it is also good to not be hated. especially if this can be accomplished at reasonable cost.
mircea_popescu: people don't like capitalism ? fuck them.
assbot: I don't know those people, and they don't look very friendly.
mircea_popescu: you can't suspend action until you're 100% sure.
asciilifeform: smickles: I suppose I spoiled it already for everyone who hasn't.
BitHub: they didn't care
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: why not extract it from a PGP public key instead? can't be faked, and doesn't need armed thugs to enforce.
bgupta: wait that didn't have blanket applicability the supreme court specifically made a very narrow ruling deferring the question of patentability for a future court/case
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: bioweapons. doesn't take a world-class brain.
bgupta: at least with it unofficial they had to think twice about using info they weren't supposed to have
Bugpowder: [22:29] <mircea_popescu> created ~300 mn usd worth of bitcoin wealth. SO FAR. This isn't over yet.
bgupta: the reality is most citizens aren't technically adept to use privacy tools properly.. nor don't care, and it will be hard for those that aren't superrich to uproot their families on a (to most citizens) alarmist future view.
bgupta: You are assuming that certain states wouldn't just shut down the public telco grid to survive.
mircea_popescu: i don't think so. without a cheap and effective way to maintain informational supremacy and without control of wealth transfer there simply can't be a state.
assbot: I haven't understood a single word you've said since I met you, not one single word.
mircea_popescu: retarded kid, didn't even come up with a random name, just mashed kbd
mircea_popescu: can't it be something a little more palatable ?
mircea_popescu: helps them learn about what they can and can do and so should or shouldn't attempt.
mircea_popescu: no it doesn't.
mircea_popescu: i'd even settle for "you can't X because you suck"
mircea_popescu: show me a one case past 15 years where a kid was told "you can't do what this other kid does because he is better than you"
[\\\]: I'm pretty certain Britain doesn't tell everyone they're equal to anyone
mircea_popescu: 7500 words expended to clearly show he doesn't understand what exactly shareholders are, how they're different from founders and wtf exactly finance is
mircea_popescu: not to mention it generated 100's of k's worth of value or so for the people who didn't procrastinate/think themselves better/entitled/whatever.
[\\\]: there's several billion of them, so waht if 1 doesn't match?
mircea_popescu: a well. so our dreams are shatter't on the cold shores of jagged reality
mircea_popescu: indeed they don't look too azn do they
mircea_popescu: well that i can't say.
[\\\]: then again, many people don't
[\\\]: dust doesn't like me
mircea_popescu: "We had a good run, and we can't thank our customers enough for their overwhelming adoption and support. It truly is hard to believe that less than a month after launching we have hundreds of users and have processed thousands of dollars per day."
error4733: MP:not big diff b/t fickle et fucked. look at the book... just no way to sell if you want your money back.. :fu:
pizzaman1337: benkay: today's close? market doesn't close...
benkay: they don't have customers.
mircea_popescu: i guess smickles just can't get a cloak huh.
assbot: I haven't understood a single word you've said since I met you, not one single word.
