mircea_popescu: "The #4890 pull-req in question had no ACKs at all, and only two untested utACKS, which

jurov:
i remember we talked with mircea about more direct access, he was like "nah, not needed anymore, we have it covered"

davout: from what
i understand, it's usually the case that the N and N+1 contracts trade simultaneously during a few days at least

i don't see what problem this solves
davout:
i guess that what
i'm trying to clear up is the question: "why do you want to distinguish them?"
davout:
i could understand the "it's actually two different assets" point if at some point you had to sell the old one and buy the new one
davout: because the way
i see it, it could perfectly make sense to say "if you want delivery, email me before cutoff minus 24h, push the asset, email receipt, and you get delivered on the settlement date"

i would expect things to crawl over xmas period too

i want to read a "press" that publishes by permission ?
ben_vulpes:

I had a coworker who bought a car, and is still underwater on the loan. It's like "really"? << when are car loans not ever underwater?
ben_vulpes: leastaways
i've yet to see that work out for anyone. more often than not hiring leadership is a cover for the sharks to move in and kick founding teams out.
