dooglus: I'm not a manager, don't know what I'm doing, do have the 1300 coins, and don't run fractional reserve - guess that's all?
mircea_popescu: i do i do i just don't understand wtf im doing wrong
thestringpuller: It was sarcasm foo. When you make sound effects in a game you either make foley or synth that shit. Given you AREN'T paying for studio sound I don't see how foley artists would even begin to do their job. So I assume the latter. Or perhaps you're going to buy a pack of prepackaged sound clips.
Rulother: O I really don't and I think it's reasonable either way
TradeFortress: Apocalyptic, after thinking about it more, I don't think it's exactly scamming. it's like the gox rollback
thestringpuller: FabianB_: I guess you don't use alt+arrow-key very often XD
jurov: mhm.. i don't get your conclusions about doogle's loss
mircea_popescu: i don't think you're ready for this convo yet Namworld. take my word for it or don't, what can i say.
Namworld: I'm not... I don't quite see how that would offer a side channel attack.
Namworld: I don't ask for entry fees or anything, just offer a prize.
Namworld: I don't think there's even a preview yet for MG
Namworld: I don't remember. Because Nefario is slow as heck.
Apocalyptic: but i don't have time to chill 5 hours a day on a irc chan
thestringpuller: I don't have the original code you gave me
thestringpuller: gesell that I don't know but I know that it had a lot to do with the price drop
Rulother: I would switch over, but frankly I make too much money off BTCT and I don't see enough traffic to make the switch
ThickAsThieves: I don't think you'll find manty BASIC-MINING owners in here
mjr_: that i don't
mjr_: i don't know of a bigger mpex broker though
ThickAsThieves: i don't like looking at reddit
mjr_: oh, you aren't at your home computer I CAN PICTURE MYSELF BEING IN THAT SITUATION, sure it's ok that you don't authenticate
mircea_popescu: "I'm calling to report 'bout my neighbor Virgil Smith....He's hidin' marijuana inside his firewood! Don't quite know how he gets it inside them logs, but he's hidin' it there."
cosmo: keep in mind i have no experience in any of this so i don't know what i'm talking about 90% of the time
jurov: i don't know, maybe they are AIs
stayingayou: i don't care about it being toxic or not, as long as i can profit
stayingayou: i don't understand this amc stuff. i hold some amc-pt shares at btct and there is a huge wall sitting on 0.0025 and one on 0.002499. i have the option to transfer my shares to bitfunder and convert them so "am" shares, which are traded for ~0.002. so essentially trading on btct is locked down and i'd loose value if i transfer to bitfunder. i'd be very pleased if someone could brief me with a tl;tr what i'm missing here..
parseval: I hope we don't get any more exchanges popping up, that makes 5 to keep track of..
mjr_: and i don't claim to know better than him, by any means, i haven't written a lot of options and he has
mjr_: anyways, financial engineering should allow me to abstract away whatever risks i don't want, and focus on the risks i do want, and then collect on those risks
mircea_popescu: just like i showed the SDRs as the exact equivalent, and people ignored it because well... they never had one so it don't exist. ☟︎
Bugpowder: but I don't trust gox
rulother: I don't know about that, I would say with the seo easily a 1000
rulother: Its a site I developed, but don't really have time for anymore
emptyeddepended: almost every word of friedcat ends up on reddit's bitcoin frontpage, followed by another price increase.. i don''t care about the reports, but it's effects
mjrIII: anyway, it was interesting to get scammed in a controlled way, but i don't think i'd find that interesting
mjrIII: and i def don't live in chicago
mjrIII: so, i personally don't like assets
Chaang-Noi: <mjrIII> but i honestly don't understand why it is valued so low this i 100% agree with, you really do not understand... :(
mjrIII: but i honestly don't understand why it is valued so low
mjrIII: so, i really don't know, all i know is that the implied vol of those prices is 6 times higher than the greatest vol i've observed in any given month
mjrIII: since i don't have much capital
mjrIII: but i don't want to speculate on the rise and fall of btc prices, i just want to arbitrage
cads: yeah, I don't want to put negative words to lisp, mostly since I don't have the experience to have that right
benkay: i use what i feel like using when engineering req's don't clearly dictate alternatives, and when they do?i follow their directives.
cads: I don't think it existed back then
cads: I don't think that store has any particularly challenging engineering
cads: I don't want to innovate for now
cads: to be honest I don't really see many reasons to swing one way or another at this point
cads: sites like tagstand.com have been successful (I don't know how successful) offering an inventory of NFC tags at low volume/high cost, at the same time as offering a free NFC based task manager app
cads: benkay: I don't think they'll have much room to complain, as long as I don't link customers from the ebay store to my store
benkay: I imagine eBay won't be terribly pleased to hear that you accept payment methods they don't get a slice of...
emptyeddepended: no, don''t get me wrong. i honor your opinion, but i for myself are super bullish and optimistic
cads: this is not a bad thing, don't treat me as if I'm trying to rain on some parade
emptyeddepended: do you think so? i'd say it depends on the website. if it's filled with hundreds of shady payment choices, it's not good anyway, but i see no reason to not accept bitcoin. most people don't know about it and the worst reaction which could happen might be "what? bitcoin? isn't that the internet currency? wow.. it really gets attention nowadays"
asswatch: I don't want to tell mircea_popescu how to do his job or anything, but I think it's time to lay on the hyperbole and aggrandizement for ministry of games. Does anyone have any idea how awesome the game is going to be?
assbot: I don't know those people, and they don't look very friendly.
furuknap: It was nice; the only language I've used that understood what you mean, even though you don't know how to phrase it.
furuknap: As to why that notation is such, I don't know. It's been years or maybe decades since I did anything useful in Perl.
Apocalyptic: is havelock actually a registered company ? the fact i don't seem to find any info onsite is indicating it's not
jborkl: I don't remember who has the other 3
Namworld: I don't think lecturers are there to teach anything Bitcoin related... just startups related.
Namworld: I don't think it matters. It's not like Bitcoin is hard to understand. The professors aren't bitcointalk.org morons either.
Namworld: Yeah. I don't think too much of it. But I find it fun professors have decided to make their student integrate Bitcoin as the payment system instead of something like Paypal.
Namworld: I don't see why all the criticism, that's all. Oh. So you expect we'll see a fucking thousand Bitcoin crowdfunding website clones being mass produced at Standford? That would be awful...
thestringpuller: I don't need no stinkin' traffic!
mircea_popescu: i use white superfluffy shit. i don't think white on white writes too well.
furuknap: Friedcat said it would be 65nm, but I don't know if they changed their minds of course.
furuknap: All of this, BTW, is why I don't think difficulty will keep growing for very long; the risk to large investors (ie those that need to come along to fund next-next gen chips sub 28nm) is simply too great.
Namworld: Well honestly, I don't think the halving is what makes the biggest impact on this. The insanely high price of AM and lowering USD/BTC rate does.
furuknap: The cost to go from 28nm to 20nm is very high and someone needs to risk a huge amount of money to possibly succeed in reaping a 1:4 ratio on investment. I don't think you'll find many investors willing to risk that.
cads: Namworld: after a simple search I don't find any companies that offer AMD GPU clusters, which stinks.
Namworld: True, divs and a business's state of affairs matter not for most traders it seems. It's just a random walk. I assume they don't know about poker/casinos and just trade stocks randomly for the thrill.
Namworld: Don't know what I was thinking.
thestringpuller: I don't like being devil's advocate*
thestringpuller: Dude, I don't like being a dream smasher, but this is something that I've spent a decade researching under people much smarter than I.
mircea_popescu: thestringpuller i don't think the "full play experience" will be evident period. as i imagine it'll keep on changing
thestringpuller: I don't think you're getting it.
thestringpuller: I don't remember much steam punk at all in Chrono Trigger...
mircea_popescu: i don't grok how voicing a cartoon qualifies
thestringpuller: mircea_popescu: you keep using that word but i don't think it means what you think it means
mircea_popescu: i don't think it's allowed past about 17ish
asswatch: about that blog - I guess I just asked for credits, but don't know where to send money
mircea_popescu: "Great idea and can't get shut down! But this may make the government sieze individual accounts. Taking a cash deposit directly would make us money transmitters. But I'll be using it with a bank I don't use."
mircea_popescu: i don't recall who that is.
furuknap: And of course, gambling didn't work either before 2009. What a lesson in history this has been. Well, I'm off to do some computations, which would be impossible since I don't understand basic maff.
mircea_popescu: i don't want 1bn or 1trn dollars for it.
mircea_popescu: i don't think anyone's disputing the west is pretty much soviet-doomed.
mircea_popescu: i don't think he's gay.
Namworld: Well for that I don't disagree.
deadweasel: i'm just saying these areas on the map have a hundred reasons for their status, and a hundred more we don't know.
mircea_popescu: peterl i don't think that matters. the rule of cool.
jcpham: i'm only 12 so i don't know anything about voting yet
Bugpowder: I don't think you can get cash out from cavertix to US though
jcpham: yeah dude i don't like you either
Namworld: Well I don't know. Profits can vary wildly from month to month based on usage.
peterl: I feel like there should be a sex joke in there, but I don't see it
mircea_popescu: reddit better pray i don't say "reddit is fucked" next.
__blasty: good thing I don't consider myself an investor
deadweasel: i don't think the chimp was gay
thestringpuller: I don't feel quite so old these days
