BingoBoingo: On that note I'll be headed back to the doctor soon. If I don't reappear within a few hours start praying for my testicles.
pankkake: I don't you will be able to vote for them
mircea_popescu: <mike_c> i don't keep up much on havelol, just found out they've been running in the red the last few months! << did they publish this ?
mike_c: i don't see any reason that would turn around.
mike_c: i don't keep up much on havelol, just found out they've been running in the red the last few months!
mircea_popescu: eh, the guy made headlines plenty of time, and i don't recall that bs
bounce: oh I dunno. scanned it and didn't see much of anything except all the well-known things they don't like summed up. now I read the whole thing and indeed, little substance. though I suppose that there's still plenty people out there that haven't put the should-be-obvious things together.
mircea_popescu: i don't imagine it is.
decimation: the problem with Roth plans: "I am altering the deal, pray I don't alter it further..."
mircea_popescu: taub i don't know anyone that uses hitbtc anyway
fluffypony: when I'm on it I don't nap
Azelphur: BCB: I had one for a while, but I don't have anything high resolution enough to see detail :p
fluffypony: ThickAsThieves: well atm the db is 3mb, so I don't see it growing massively - double-ish that size if every single rating was updated:-P
HeySteve: I agree it has great application to politics, yet I still don't see why incentivising people to join the WoT is bad
mircea_popescu: <davout> ThickAsThieves: i wonder if that's really a good idea << i don't think it is.
mircea_popescu: i don't think there ever existed or could ever exist a functioning society in which nursing jobs are to be discounted because too little demand and too many people wanting to do it.
fluffypony: TheNewDeal: I'm a poor gambler, and don't know enough about it to make a commitment
peterl: hmm, not a real hot seller, I don't think that is where the mpoe action is going
benkay: if i don't respond within fifteen minutes i'm offline.
asciilifeform: (i, for those who don't know, ended up here entirely by fortune. invited by mpoepr/hanbot)
benkay: i don't really care
benkay: if your brand = your corporation, i don't see how that's addressing the concern.
Drew: while they own many venues and are able to throw larger shows and more frequently than most people, they don't directly throw any festivals or 5000+ person events that i am aware of
benkay: also, you can't up yourself, i don't think.
DrewHorne: and i actually don't watch any TV really
mircea_popescu: benkay this design is nonsense, i don't care wtf.
benkay: mircea_popescu: if they can't figure out where the money is i don't want to meet them.
pankkake: I just wanted to know what was the purchase link I created a while back, I don't use the API
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: I don't think twitter really bans.
fluffypony: JorgePasada: I see our friends in the Neo&Bee thread don't understand that when you and I say "creditor" we mean "creditor" and not "investor"
TomServo: mircea_popescu: I seem to recall you mentioning Piketty, but don't recall the context. Was it regarding his book?
Apocalyptic: at this point the only thing that comes to mind is : "i don't even..."
mike_c: a noble goal, good luck with it :) certainly a task i don't envy.
bitcoinpete: and i don't mind dealing with the press

BingoBoingo: I really hope csshih's employees don't fuck up getting the package out today.
artifexd: Ick. Forums. It occurs to me that I don't care that much.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform kinda my point. i don't really think btc went up in price 10x, or mpex foe that matter.
mircea_popescu: i don't think your typical mpex holder has any interest in the bitcoin price of tyhe various fiats.
mircea_popescu: mike_c: i don't even see how you can ponzi at 50% a month. that is insane. << actually romanian ponzi thing did 800% in 3 months. it paid out for a year and a half.
jurov: i don't know how coinjohn works, and if it is compatible with reusing addies
Guest95361: Although then again you rely on the fact that I don't use a VPN for that part
assbot: I don't give a shit who saw what and who did what or who did who.
mike_c: for such an active trader, it feels like an important piece of information to give away. but the alternative is to basically say nothing each month except BTC + (atc converted to btc). so i don't know what you can do about that.
davout: kakobrekla: i don't think so
mike_c: i thought my article was positive on s.mpoe. i don't think its my fault.
mike_c: i don't even see how you can ponzi at 50% a month. that is insane.
ThickAsThieves: fluffypony huh? I don't even see Danny wanted in Cyprus on Interpol
davout: pankkake: "you can also create other altcoins in ripple <<< i don't think so or i misunderstand sthg
davout: ThickAsThieves: i don't really see anything wrong with ripple as long as you take it for what it actually is : a mechanism to transmit debt, for which you have to buy stamps from a single company
mircea_popescu: ;;later tell peterl i disagree btw. while i'm pretty sure quantum computing is the exact equivalent of perpetuum mobile, only we don't have the three rules of quantum compudynamics yet, cold fusion may or may not be in the same situation. maybe we discover something about lasers that makes containment work, who knows.

danielpbarron: i don't know very much about smart cards
mircea_popescu: bounce i don't really believe in half measures. im either sending in people with automatic rifles, or not at all.
GAit: bitcoinpete: i don't really know anyonw in bitcoin-dev that is pro address reuse
mircea_popescu: i am saying that the entire "don't reuse addresses" campaign is exactly the equiovalent of "pls to use openssh" or "pls to use tor before that"
GAit: i wasn't sure this was appropriate for the channel, as long as others don't mind
pankkake: does it? perhaps because I'm blocking everything - javascript and cookies, I don't seem to have it
danielpbarron: bitcoinpete: heh, i'd "favorite" your tweet, but I don't want to give twitter a reason to set my account to "login required to read" mode
bitcoingirl: I don't know who john carvalo is - never heard of him
bitcoingirl: i don't know hat irc nick means
bitcoingirl: i don't know what thickastheives is
danielpbarron: I don't need to know, but i'm confident MPEx could figure that one out
BigBitz: mircea_popescu I get the impression I don't even need to be here for you to converse...
mircea_popescu: BigBitz what i don't get is, why the fuck would local bitcoins hold any bitcoins. just run it like craigslist, what do you want to hold on to the risk for.
bounce: static only content only, obviously. I'd set it up if aws let me sign up (which they don't--need phone and cc and then the derping really starts. what do they want now, my first born?)
mircea_popescu: anyway, to come back to some track. i don't believe in forcing people to pay, my idea of peddling games is not modeled on peddling heroin.
fluffypony: I don't think BingoBoingo is minerpart, BingoBoingo is too rational
mircea_popescu: i don't believe in forcing people.
mircea_popescu: ThickAsThieves i imagine you should be able to. it may be complicated but i don't think so. it's defionitely not deliberately obfuscated.
mircea_popescu: ThickAsThieves i don't see why niot. the client is open source anyway.
KLYE: As it sits at this current moment I am looking into exactly what Cameras I'd like to invest in.. I need PTZ technology built in. But I also don't want to invest in cheap hardware and have it break quickly
mircea_popescu: but i don't believe the best way to achieve that is through half-assing the marketplace design.
fluffypony: pankkake: I also start typing replies to him and then give up, I don't actually have the time to waste
fluffypony: I don't think he's done anything except make circuitous, confusing arguments and accuse everyone of being part of a cult
BingoBoingo: fluffypony: I don't like to comment much on the pending case other than, allegedly some political speech was said.
thestringpuller: i don't trust femme fatales
Micon: For me personally, coming from the poker world, being insanely google-able and IRL verfiable, and especially because I spend every June at Rio since 2006, being on bitcointalk and doing btc trades here in Vegas since 2011... most ppl don't have any issue if they need to trust me.
cgcardona: ok i've removed all my previous wot ratings from the cgcardona_ account and rerated w/ my new nick. If i had previously rated you and you don't see it now w/ the new nick let me know and I'll fix that. thanks
danielpbarron: cgcardona: i think that's possible, or I don't see why not
danielpbarron: i don't think it's nearly as easy to get that changed
fluffypony: mircea_popescu: I don't have the knowledge or connections to do set that up in the Northern African countries
ThickAsThieves: "There are ~230 little girls in Nigeria getting sold for around $12 each. I have one bitcoin. I don't know how to do hostage escrow and I don't know anyone in Nigeria, scams notwithstanding. It wouldn't be enough for all of them even if I could try to buy them back."
moiety: also i like how we don't have to re-up! when assbot takes a break kakobrekla :D
pankkake: I wouln't be considered old, I don't really like being old, but I feel old
fluffypony: kakobrekla: somehow I don't think bitcoinpete is profiting off his blog ;)
asciilifeform: 'web 3.0' << 'i don't know what weapons ww3 will be fought with, but ww4 will be fought with bow and arrow'
CheckDavid: I don't get why they are so skinny though
mircea_popescu: i dunno dood, i don't even run a studio. chances are, it'll never get made anyway
mircea_popescu: i don't write for audiences.
CheckDavid: Ok I will test myself if you don't want to answer
TestingUnoDosTre: what rate should I pursue (I realize I don't have a control in it), for the two returns to be "equal"
mircea_popescu: btw, i don't know if you realise this, but we're fucking up most insects something fierce.
mike_c: artifexd: yeah, i don't know which way that bet is going to go, but it will be a bumpy ride.
bounce: I don't see it?
mircea_popescu: <bounce> I don't particularly like the model, but if above assumptions hold it's not acutally an outright bad idea. << what's that then ?
bounce: I don't particularly like the model, but if above assumptions hold it's not acutally an outright bad idea.
bounce: no, no I don't understand. but I don't think I want to understand either. esp. since I'm all out of drink.
