mircea_popescu: hm. we could then correctly say your real life hasn't begun yet ?
mircea_popescu: no, not utterly trivial shite. the stuff that you are proud of and pointedly accept as the superset of your capacity and abilities.
mircea_popescu: so other than waiting generations, we and so forth, what is it you do ?
mircea_popescu: so you have a fundamental objection to syntactical convention and a syntactic convenience objection to a fundamental solution.
mircea_popescu: or what exactly is the purpose here, i dun rightly follow.
mircea_popescu: what's wrong with shutt's expansion, if you absolutely want reflectivity
mircea_popescu: sbp you got a prototype of this fexpr compiler thing somewhere ?
mircea_popescu: the problem of how to prevent the failure mode is of course still open.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform (it was old norman, a marginal dialect of french, disused in france due to paris ascendancy, that survived as a very intricate technical language via oxford law uni.)
mircea_popescu: sbp the cardinal sin of writing is to not know why you chose a style.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform however the reverend of nyssa's mockery is quite on point you know :D
mircea_popescu: sbp> why not of ecc? <<< it's in the logs! but in summary : direct equivalent of the obscurantist practice of "whitening" except with math rather than rngs.
mircea_popescu: meanwhile, can you actually translate that comment yourself ?
mircea_popescu: sbp bot seems to be in a smashed state. maybe can'\t get outbound connections, we'll see in a bit.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform did you give him a bunch of links or is he this lively by nature ?
mircea_popescu: sbp infrastructure just got re-built a coupla weeks ago, ironing out bugs still.
mircea_popescu: phf odds are that was because people were yet not relying on it for work process ?
mircea_popescu: sbp for my curiosity, you familiar with the state of republican debate on items such as utf and ascii generally ?
mircea_popescu: and holy shit is life impossible without the log. phf when's it 2pm already omaygerd.
mircea_popescu: sbp if you do you'll be able to maintain a presence here / participate in wot etc.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform> 'look we did our j0b!111 check box in 3ring today' << seems altogether likely, this.
mircea_popescu: phf kinda curious how you'll solve the various byzantine problems of a multibot setup.
mircea_popescu: gets restated periodically, hence mircea_popescu: anyway, freenode does not enjoy any degree of tmsr trust afaik.
mircea_popescu: im sending you your walking papers if you're going to insist playing the idiot, how about that ?
mircea_popescu: i think for some reason you got the idea that if mp gets phuctor server it's ok to come in, redefine it as "trb node" and move on.
mircea_popescu: (i imagine you took out the house bet proceeds from liabilities because kakobrekla whined. characteristically for the "partnership" mentality, he forgot to mention this other part.)
mircea_popescu: so : it's true that i don't have to keep the proceeds. it is not however true they're free money.
mircea_popescu: or alternatively, if you prefer, came out of bettor's funds.
mircea_popescu: these 0.1 btc came out of my own pocket, as a credit towards bitbet, that now has to be unwound.
mircea_popescu: that is entirely besides the point. for every bet currently open, the "house" put in 0.1 btc.
mircea_popescu: my idea is that while it's true that the proceeds from house bets shouldn't be counted against the shareholders - it is at the same time the actual sum of those bets as made should count as a credit for me.
mircea_popescu: alrighty, this is then the correct figure, pending the house bets issue which afaik is the last item.
mircea_popescu: right. so it's the correct basis there. and the hw is indeed already counted.
mircea_popescu: so right right, that's the right number then, 199.45047737, ie owed bets + refunds - hw.
mircea_popescu: now im lost as to why the fuck i had a 199 figure which matches netiehr of these ;/
mircea_popescu: the entirety of my responsibility here is the sum of bets.
mircea_popescu: i see no value in using either 1040 or 841 value of unknown provenance.
mircea_popescu: davout meanwhile, accounting points out another snag. specifically, while it's correct that the proceeds of house bets go to shareholders ; it's incorrect that the bets themselves come out of thin air. the bitbet house bets were not a personal gift of mp to the bitbet shareholders, they were an expense undertook by said shareholders, which i generously (and perhaps ineptly) floated for them. so should be on liability side.
mircea_popescu: anyway ; marissa o'hare was a party girl 15-20 years ago. always lulzy to see gals still clinging on to their "29" pix.
mircea_popescu: look at those fabulous pagely.netdna-ssl.com/wp-content/blabla delays.
mircea_popescu: (wenner media, rolling stone magazine publisher, they used to sort-of matter in 1982.)
mircea_popescu: didja know wiener media is a thing ? hired some chick that shoulda been a stripper to "senior director of something or the other"
mircea_popescu: i've been chuckling and smirking all morning ; their treat.
mircea_popescu: fucking CAREERS at here today gone tomorrow no model no revenue no hope vc inflatatrons
mircea_popescu: they have a page with obscure executivs from anodyne shitshows providing social proof. CAREER, hombre.
mircea_popescu: and in yet more lulz, whoa BingoBoingo can you fucking believe the commenter interest in changetip ?! mindboggling.
mircea_popescu: not far away is the day "guarantee 80% uptime" will be an actual sales point.
mircea_popescu: in other lulz, this bitly thing is out of the www fantasy lmao. " 24/7 Security Were looking out for you. We have a dedicated IT team monitoring your account 24/7 and guaranteed 99% uptime. Were always on the lookout, so you dont have to be."
mircea_popescu: davout so i'm thinking this is all good. getting back to
http://btcbase.org/log/2016-04-08#1448430 i guess we rectify it to i owe you 199.45006789, you owe me 4.83378422 hw credit + 50 for mpex shareholders + 15.00178846 my share (i'm taking it you'll be paying kakobrekla's directly ?) which leaves a net of 129.61449521. that right ?
☝︎ mircea_popescu: davout but speaking of which cent, you're not seriously going to make all the payments in one single txn are you ? who knows what other unworking bit of the unspecified protocol that "everyone knows" in retrospect but only after it happens we'll end up discovering.
mircea_popescu: davout doing the shareholder math only for verification, it comes out they should receive 86 BTC from auction - 13.37 your fee + 3.35043347 (1% of 335.04334737 winnings ) + 1.21 (donations) + 2.82314231 (house above) which then with the tx fees comes out right.
mircea_popescu: davout ok, so going through third report : as to note 2-3, so you took out 2.15+0.67314231 = 2.82314231 out of liabilities seeing how the house needn't pay itself, i reckon ? this makes sense.
