mike_c: the point being, i am not investing in the code. i am investing in dooglus. and he returned 4% in april.

pankkake: I was thinking of a gambling system where the key is the next block hash

mike_c: so dooglus is skimming (which he's not i'm sure). who cares?

ThickAsThieves: or maybe I'm missing how dooglus has already done this somehow?

fluffypony: I agree with ThickAsThieves - I think "provably fair" often means "proving that there are winners and losers"

mircea_popescu: i don't follow.

BCB: ThickAsThieves, that was a hoot. I was shocked someone so stupid was so successful at his scam

ThickAsThieves: i found the shavers testimony to be a fun read

BCB: US has control of Gox DB, Trendon Shavers Transactions, SR DB, I'd imagine they have would would like to add Satoshi Dice data to their collection.

BCB: mircea_popescu, I never followed it much. But the Voorhees SEC inquery is interesting

asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: 500 bucks ... open land in patagonia << once i crack the puzzle of what to eat - and where to plug in - at patagonia (or timisoara, or antarctica, or mars) - there i'll be.

kakobrekla: so i dunno what confused him.

asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: build a succession of spacious yurts... when full, build a new one a little off, carry whatever pieces of the old << this is 'cheney's algorithm' for semispace garbage collection. i've always wanted to implement it in meatspace.

kakobrekla: well, not to go into full detail, but my previous email did include: > I am a member of local cheese making club, I am interested in free cake and no taxes.

Apocalyptic: I should hire him to do some ux improvements for x-bt

Apocalyptic: <mircea_popescu> you're a very ux minded fellow aren't you. // I concur

mircea_popescu: i couldn't need a dns less : you know where to send funds becasuse yu get a gpg signed deposit slip.

mircea_popescu: and i wonder if sukrim ever sat down and calculated how much he has lost to date, since his derpy "hai i r glbse investoar" days.

mircea_popescu: i wonder what that means.

jurov: you are already, and i hereby anoint you to the Most Noble MPEx Trolls Order

fluffypony: pankkake is "Popescu's co-troll"? I didn't know it was a shared position

fluffypony: VanCleef: well I won't be plugging any funds into SeedCoin, but I do think that the TagPesa guy at least has some idea of what he's doing

fluffypony: TagPesa responded well to my criticisms. I actually hope they accomplish what they want to in spite of their involvement with SeedScam.

mircea_popescu: Naphex what happens if i replace both records ?

mircea_popescu: punkman a, i c. well, can't hurt.

punkman: mircea_popescu: I'll give it some thought then, I have like 9-10 years of experience in aff things

Naphex: so here is a working version of what i talked about earlier

mircea_popescu: punkman if i had any idea how to make it so it doesn't suck i'd be looking for it people not domain experts.

mircea_popescu: jurov: i guess they shorting was "omitted" from mastercoin protocol << lol. because anyone can do anything they set their mind to. including design of stuff they never used irl.

fluffypony: fair enough, I get your point

BohemianHacks: so if you can't see that anything dealing with that topic would be subjective, I can't really help you.

mircea_popescu: BohemianHacks im not trying to prove anything really, i'm just exploring where exactly we differ.

BohemianHacks: meh, this is a waste of time. I get you are trying to prove a point about safe investing, but thats the definition of the word. Buying tons of lotto tickets is dumb, but it IS investing.

mircea_popescu: well sure, i guess in the sense of, "good dentistry" is what happens at the dentist's office, and plain dentistry is what happens at the bare
