bitcoinpete:
i watched around the world in 80 days last night and
i coulda sworn they used perimutuel betting
benkay: but
i didn't have to work for it
benkay: oh hey
i capitalized it
benkay:
i was relying on my readers to interpolate scare quotes.
benkay: also w/r/t tax it's criminal. those bonds were tax free until now,
i believe.
benkay: shoulda
i put it in scare quotes?
BingoBoingo: jurov:
I just think it is the only way this "cloud" concept can be saved
benkay: but
i never owned the keys for it, so
i guess
i never really owned it.
benkay:
i'm already resigned to losing this number.
benkay: "
I'll let that sink in."
mircea_popescu: "She was lucky to get away with only a broken foot, but
I guess thats what happens when you dont listen to something a millionaire tells you to do."

I used a "all obtuse angles are straight angles" lemma. blazed through the geometry section with it.
mircea_popescu: here's an anecdote : back when
i was in school tho, we did this "thesis paper" each trimester, which accounted for half the grade, in select subjects.
mircea_popescu: ThickAsThieves: Chrome was freezing so
i went to uninstall it and
i think
i unistalled the whole os ui << MP on ubuntu fresh install. "Why the shit does this have internet ? Take it out". Ubuntu proceeds to mark everything as "to be uninstalled", all the way up to the kernel. Why ? BECAUSE FUCKTARDS MARK EVERYTHING AS A DEPENDENCY.
fluffypony: tbh
I haven't spoken to him in months,
I should actually find out if he's still alive
mircea_popescu: fluffypony:
I'd rather not say to protect the guilty - he mismanaged stuff badly after that and the whole thing spiralled into recklessness and infamy << the company you keep.
jborkl: sorry
I misread the name Coinkike
mircea_popescu: thestringpuller: "compare it to the known losses of non scammor companies" <<ya, not sure if there are any of these around << you could count the 2012 mpex cdos
i guess.
mircea_popescu: there's obviously a nonzero chance that bitcoin has a -50% diff event during its lifetime.
i wonder if it'll also be during our lifetime.
mircea_popescu: fluffypony
i only coupla days ago found out what swag ACTUALLY means.

I could pick them up- since they are in "stock" 15 minutes away. no response
ThickAsThieves:

i already own 97% of the net
kakobrekla:
i bet you cant do it with a static html!
mod6:
i was just thinking... 'remember when the diff was like 5mn'
jborkl: bitcoinpete , nice -
I am trying to keep the data very small and as few requests as possible - under 200kb for a new visit and around 10 requests and a half second load time
fluffypony:
I'd rather not say to protect the guilty - he mismanaged stuff badly after that and the whole thing spiralled into recklessness and infamy
fluffypony:
I have a friend who ran a successful Kickstarter a while back
fluffypony: bitcoinpete: the funny thing is
I did a cost analysis of the OpenRigs frames vs. China (at scale) and it ends up being cheaper to manufacture here, but they win on direct shipping costs
fluffypony:
I think
I'm overly liberal with the labelling sometimes
thestringpuller: bitcoinpete: so my idea would be to do what mircea_popescu did but additionally, compare it to the known losses of non scammor companies (
i think most losses from non scamming companies have been covered somehow). Thus there is like a two-side criterion based on BingoBoingo's observation of a BTC company that incurs losses it can never cover as "scammors"
benkay: thanks jurov.
i saw that link but hope springs eternal
danielpbarron:
I'm waiting for the bitcoin-days destroyed chart to have a spike today
danielpbarron: what services are using node.js?
i tried searching around but couldn't get definitive answers
bitcoinpete:

mike_c: <+thestringpuller> bitcoinpete:
I have a story for you.
mike_c:
i'm still waiting for thestringpuller's story.
davout: that'll make a nice first post, a nice second post too if
i'm lazy
davout:
i can see the use,
i'll use the opportunity to publish a coupla stats too
davout: which one should
i take? last trade before settlement (which could be days behind) or last active bid before settlement?
davout: that
i can imagine others will see as well
mircea_popescu: "
i will pay joe 1.5 btc for this car on may 16th, provided x.eur settles under 0.03. otherwise, 1.2 btc"
