mike_c: <+kakobrekla> making people think. always
a dubious idea. << also, minigames require no thought :)
mike_c: it's like an option.
a guy who buys the option early is buying time value.
kakobrekla: making people think. always
a dubious idea.
mike_c: in any case, point is that there is
a shifting balance that rewards paying attention at multiple points through the game as opposed to rewards just decreasing over time.
punkman: mike_c, is there
a reason it doesn't have any sort of time weight when buying shares?
mike_c:
a recognized one. it's currently
a polling architecture. i want to switch it to sockets, which would speed it up.
mike_c: well that's
a problem!
punkman: is it one minigame at
a time for everyone?
mike_c: punkman: well, bids are based on what makes it into
a block. could you describe what you mean
a bit?
BingoBoingo: mike_c: Yeah. I'm noticing the bomb mechanics seem vulnerable to last minute sniping with
a bid one unit higher. I dunno if time weight or maybe making bomb type
a chance based on the size of life or death pools might make things more interesting
BingoBoingo: ;;later tell mircea_popescu mp_on
a boat To experiment with blockchain bloat. Thankfully NMC miners don't like big transactions

a few states start accounting for the black market in their GDP?
benkay: <mp_on_a_boat> benkay:fucking disgusting, and yet. <<< i guess you never told
a girl "if you throw up im going to make you fucking eat it up" and then carried through ? // lol no sir
mp_on_a_boat: "Every time
a new startup launches, or
a new software project announces, ask one question: “Does this new thing improve the black market?”
mp_on_a_boat: anyway, excellent point from justusranvier. at this rate ima end up
a negligible voice in this space or some shit.
mp_on_a_boat: the bezzle economy is
a crime against humanity.
mp_on_a_boat: Those of us who do not participate in the underground economy are often unaware of its breadth: it grew to include one half of the world’s workers by 2009, and is projected to include two-thirds of workers by 2020. << this is important. i make it
a point to contribute whenever possible. my cards here for instance ? paid cash, no paper trail, 20% discount for me and so another hundred bucks added to the free world.
mp_on_a_boat: benkay:fucking disgusting, and yet. <<< i guess you never told
a girl "if you throw up im going to make you fucking eat it up" and then carried through ?
mp_on_a_boat: ThickAsThieves: davout, i forget what we ended up guessing, but i have
a more recent info-share that says 1PH cost more like $500,000 now. Not sure if that was for chips only though... << sounds like chip only.
mp_on_a_boat:
a) puts it on reddit, to gain redditard fame worth 0.00x ltc ; b) bets on bitbet, mto gain whatever it is by now
justusranvier: mp_on_a_boat: There are always outliers. Imagine
a hypothetical experiment where you start 100 companies with the goal of capturing growning shares of shriking markets, and another 100 companies that try to gain market share in growing markets, and at the end see which group ends up better on average.
fluffypony: mp_on_a_boat: nah, she just wasn't one of those fun pornstars, she was one of those still-at-the-bottom-looking-for-
a-rich-boyfriend types
fluffypony: oh speaking of which, there was
a cheap porn star / photographer at the conference
mp_on_a_boat:

mp_on_a_boat: justusranvier: It's
a simple matter of math. If you want to run
a successful venture, then target the potential customer base that is growing rather than the one that is shrinking << complex. take one of the largest scams out there, the LVHM conglomerate.
mp_on_a_boat: BingoBoingo: For
a couple months I made it my mission to shove as much video into the NMC blockchain as possible << why ?
benkay: subject of dogs, my monster was just eating breakfast when something happened outside that caught his attention. he howled at it but with
a throat full of food so it came out in this hilariously muffled "wooooOOoOooOOoo", after which he coughed his food up onto the floor, 'cause naturally the body doesn't like doing all of those things at the same time.
benkay: <BingoBoingo> Brother and wife babysat
a "puppy (80 lb pitbull mix)" // lol some puppy

BingoBoingo: For some 80 lb pitbill puppy to lay teeth on F.... I regert not being there to treat him as one does
a coyote.
BingoBoingo: I dunno why I think this is important (or do I WANT) the CIA/NSA/OMGWTFBBQ to think I am

BingoBoingo: In other news justusranvier My brother's dog gets its stutches out tomorrow. My brother isn't
a synthetic of you is he???

a conversation I was supposing wherein for some people the most profitable market might be
a synthetic grey market against themselves
justusranvier: It's
a simple matter of math. If you want to run
a successful venture, then target the potential customer base that is growing rather than the one that is shrinking

a talk about WoL
BingoBoingo: For
a couple months I made it my mission to shove as much video into the NMC blockchain as possible
BingoBoingo: Honestly my biggest problem with
a lot of the cryptocoin derps isn't that they don't know the history, but that they don't know how many corners the history has.
BingoBoingo: How much effort and time goes into the pretense of happy accidents is
a test of one's tolerance for rectal heating.
BingoBoingo: And the ancient coins slumber again for
a while.
BingoBoingo: You move the ancient coins in
a way that feigns
a rougue BTC sports book, withdraw as apportunity presents and record that for the soldering iron.
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: of course if it is indeed
a bet, but what if one wants to turn ancient, yet heretofore deniable coins liquid?
BingoBoingo: Between the lines I never suppose
a necessary second ot third party asciilifeform
BingoBoingo: But, due to name, anytime line betting operators give Serena William's opponent decimal odds less than 10, there is opportunity to either have or create
a "happy accident"
BingoBoingo: How to cover such
a thing is an exercise for people who study these things.
BingoBoingo: There is exactly one sort of happy Accident I can suggest happens with some certainty if anyone needs such
a thing.
BingoBoingo: My greatest hope for the week is that I find I can begin working at
a library for dollars, cutting the BTC burn rate to below zero
BingoBoingo: Mar 20 21:52:16 <ninjashogun>On the other hand for text analysis reasons I don't think he should post even anonymized quotes. Most people's writing is extremely characteristic << The UnSavory Garnish reveals he is indeed
a Vegetable

a day or so, don't panic, i still love you.

a ninjashogun we can be very poor indeed. To anyone we enter an OTC trade with we can have
a bit more than exactly enough to trasnact.
mircea_popescu: <BingoBoingo> Little do they realize that this channel is largely
a bunch of happy paupers << it wouldn't surprise me if stoics were indeed the majority.
mircea_popescu: <benkay> i need
a caning << talk to moiety, she's gotta unionize after this
