TheNewDeal: I've got a lot of my stake invested in the Bastille Day, starting to make me sweat
TheNewDeal: I haven't the slightest clue
TheNewDeal: so I skipped that
TheNewDeal: I'm pretty noobish at modeling a random walk though
TheNewDeal: I'm updating TheNewDeals estimate to 4.8% increase
BingoBoingo: I'd be thrilled if it stalled out until Bastille Day
smickles: they are tired, i did it too late in the day
smickles: ah, speaking of that. I have to give them a bath. bb in 20 min or so
smickles: so much to read, no way i'll get current hehe
smickles: oh my, can I even type words properly anymore?
mircea_popescu: haha. i don't even recall, where you here when logs were introduced ? the bash ?
TheNewDeal: like when I look up my betting address
TheNewDeal: MP i've got a question about reported results for btc companies
mircea_popescu: mike_c well amusingly enough i actually am holding tons of paper. just, it's to a large degree my own.
mircea_popescu: this is why i introduced the bitcoin gambling thing. to point out that the world is a snowglobe whether you are big enough to notice or not.,
mircea_popescu: like you know, a dribblet of cum i spilled on the floor is something my well sated slaves ignore
mike_c: i am failing to map that metaphor onto our financial discussion.
mike_c: why would i expend effort on something that may significantly increase 1% of my base instead of something that will only moderately increase 20% of my base? it would be unprofitable.
mircea_popescu: i don't follow this logic, even if it is a sidepoint
mike_c: not sure i give you that. different deals are exposed. some are removed.
mircea_popescu: this is precisely why i said earlier 200bn isn't the concern. the bigger you grow, the more deals are exposed to you.
mike_c: mircea_popescu: and i mean of course not on the betting or investing side.
TheNewDeal: i know
TheNewDeal: i just read your article about kelly the other day
mike_c: plus, i'm back.
mike_c: i am of course.
mike_c: i gotta pop off for 30 mins. back in a bit and will continue if you're still around.
mike_c: i wouldn't want to be him because he's trying to grow a capital base of $200B.
mircea_popescu: i wouldn't want to be in his shoes. he's saved by old age, and by the fact that business cycles used to be slow.
mike_c: so i should diversify into "bad returns". hmm..
mircea_popescu: and by fashionable i actually mean "good returns"
mike_c: i propose doog and kako would still return funds.
mike_c: i'm not saying put 95% of your cash in pirate. or in a variety of investments that are all actually putting their money in pirate.
mircea_popescu: i'lltell you why
mircea_popescu: anyway, what i had in mind just got shot because i wasn't expecting you to be this reckless :D
mike_c: to be clear (for the last time) we aren't talking about me, but what I would recommend.
mike_c: ok. seems like a broad definition, but then yes, i suppose the theoritcal me is invested in securities.
mircea_popescu: mike_c hey i wanna argue with you some more. you busy ?
benkay: i discovered this with http://dumb.domains
mircea_popescu: i think this may be scam ;/
mircea_popescu: frankenmint: why couldnt i simply pass on the link directly to the cli << you could open the link in a browser and past the contents directly to the cli
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: Generally in the US baseball caps are used to hide bald spots and thinning hair. I kind of though tthe concept was cribbed from the Jews.
benkay: leastaways that's how i've always read it. odds of me being wrong on a thing are like 9:1
BingoBoingo: I'm guessing the first Secretary of crypto is probably going to be Jay-Z or Ashton Kutcher, because VC celibrities in the flea circus like to imagine celberities in the Hollywood circus care for them.
BingoBoingo: I mean they've been hinted at, but some people probably won't believe until they are wearing an breathing aparatus and hoping it holds so the Radon doesn't asphyxiate them.
mircea_popescu: i guess.
mthreat: ^ that's what I was trying to do
mircea_popescu: i had no idea they did that, moreover, pretty sure they didn't USE to do it.
mircea_popescu: bitcoingirl: i think Kraken and circle are the drivers of the operation << SV "Bitcoin" VCs are quickly becoming this place elephants go to die.
bitcoinpete: mircea_popescu: i've been had!
davout: k i'm off, night all
mthreat: ok, as long as you know what I meant ;)
davout: mircea_popescu: i guess i you regexp you're good
decimation: I would do exactly what a monk in 1300 would do - make a concordance of each day's logs and then make an index of the concordance
gribble: What do you think I am, a shell?
thestringpuller: perl -p -i -e
mthreat: davout: ok. I'll make it open so folks can submit pull requests or whatever.
davout: ideally a bit smarter than a grep, but i'd beware of fancyness
mthreat: ok i'll look at it. it's easy to change the ranking function
mthreat: I was going to use something like log(poster's WoT score) as the "pageRank" equivalent for ranking the results
mircea_popescu: cause we all have flatfile logs and well... lazy i guess
mircea_popescu: i was going to ask you in a few days but then i ated it.
punkman: I was working on a log search thingy but then I forgot about it, ask me again in a few days
decimation: So I'm on vacation in Maui, and I find the local "Hawai'i" culture amusing. Mostly it's white people and the descendents of Korean slaves pretending to have something in common with war-like primative tribes who used to live here.
mircea_popescu: but anyway, this will become a serious problem, already i spend too much time searching the logs
mthreat: mircea_popescu: I've been thinking about making a log search. A handy search-as-a-service might come in handy there.
kakobrekla: i can see ascii breaking it.
mircea_popescu: actually i imagine the logs'd be in a db anyway rather than in files
mircea_popescu: but i mean, just run grep and report the results on a page
cazalla: clearly i've been looking at the wrong alex jones
decimation: I have a suggestion for content aggregation - use NNTP (usenet)
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: Of course I am.
mircea_popescu: i guess BingoBoingo is stuck doing it by hand
pankkake: pretty much any irc bot with rss feed support could, but I planned to write something like that. anyway, for now: no
mircea_popescu: "A person essentially help to make seriously articles I’d state. This is the first time I frequented your website page and thus far? I amazed with the analysis you made to make this actual publish amazing. Magnificent activity"
Mats_cd03: benkay: i like it
pankkake: I guess I'll tone down my Parisan pride tomorrow and pack an umbrella
Swadq: I'm afraid I don't know, that's not the sort of bot I run :p I hope someone else can help you
frankenmint: because this looks like its one bot that works across several markets I was going to spend time to build my own bot from scratch that only uses cryptsy
frankenmint: and I was going to change out gox for something like coinmkt or cryptsy
frankenmint: uh okay i was looking at thishttps://github.com/maxme/bitcoin-arbitrage
Swadq: I do frankenmint, what's up?
benkay: wait hang on i thought the Shavers case established that they don't care if it's money or not raising funds is raising funds
bitcoingirl: i was just trying to get some information on the voorhees case. very interesting subject.
benkay: i'm sure we'll see it in the next 'this week in bitcoin' from what is it - Forbes, bitcoingirl?
fluffypony: "Whats Dannys real name? is it really Daniel Brewster or what? I hv investors who want to buy the business how do i get hold of him?"
bitcoingirl: thanks. i think I'm finished here for now.
frankenmint: why couldnt i simply pass on the link directly to the cli
frankenmint: not knowing that I need to save the link into a file
frankenmint: i have gpg and i could register but I can't figure out the proper usage with the challenge link
frankenmint: how do I decrypt the challenge question in dos?
Apocalyptic: pankkake, I think I saw Enky point out that hitbtc is faking volume
davout: pankkake: i'm told sometimes the hitbtc orderbook empties all of a sudden, the mm who whas telling me that assumes it's their own bot that sometimes goes offline
benkay: ah, any eurozone account? i don't know much about your banking situations.
jurov: benkay nope, i'm using slovak acct
benkay: also (and correct me if i'm wrong davout) but if a user ever wants to sell btc via paymium, even if not withdrawing cash, they have to have a french bank account.
pankkake: benkay: I don't remember, either no paid wager or bad source (bitcoincharts)
davout: i don't know about kraken, but the paymium approach is that we skip the issue entirely, we verify everyone, if people were only depositing and withdrawing btc they could do it anonymously, but we don't really want that kind of users since we make no money being a wallet
davout: ah i see
benkay: naively, "why do i have to show docs if i'm just showing up with btc and leaving with btc", but i get it.
