ughlol: mircea_popescu: Now you understand why I wanted to pm?
ninjashogun: i wanna be a billionaire - and a programming job can't even make me a millionaire - id have to struggle hard just to make ends meet
ninjashogun: ctrl-f "i wanna be a billionaire" - http://pastebin.com/iTLNPmmq
ninjashogun: I think his idea is perfectly fine.
ThickAsThieves: now i'm putting you both on ignore for when you come back in a few weeks with your hands out for some other bullshit
ninjashogun: nubbins`, no I just introduced ughlol
ninjashogun: So it's really all the same to me, but I would prefer if you'd do the noble, proper thing and take a few seconds to do that.
ThickAsThieves: i dont have to do shit for you
ninjashogun: Well given that you have just taken it upon yourself to accuse me of being a scammer with ughlol it's up to you to take about 35 seconds to scroll through that and determine that, in fact, I have just met him, and you're a fucking troll who should either stop trolling and apologize or (obviously) eat shit or die
ThickAsThieves: i'm already feeling woozy
ninjashogun: I'd like you to read through it and apologize. no way would I fabricate this, with timestamps, just for some 'scam'. I also don't know him personally.
ughlol: jurov: I would love to read, can you give me a link?
ThickAsThieves: but i cant respect you either
ThickAsThieves: i cant stop you
ughlol: ThickAsThieves: can I at least discuss the idea?
ughlol: I want to create a social network that completely revolves around location services
ninjashogun: BingoBoingo, I would forget about that portion. It's very germane in India where it is a big problem. If he were from Detroit he would put in bullet tracking information based on echolocation - how far away is that shooting? :)
ughlol: mircea_popescu: Interesting indeed, but ofc, I am looking for investment.. You can call yourself a venture capitalist, investor, angel investor or whatever you like :)
ughlol: jurov: I think you can understand that it is difficult (not impossible, but difficult) to create something from nothing.
jurov: i don'thave a vulture capital access, too and i'm fine
ninjashogun: In addition I've seen some of his skills in pentesting and security, and think he is the real deal in terms of what he can program. Here is his site, where you can see his photo and full name as well:
ninjashogun: Another example I can think of is let's say two people are both open source developres. If they put that, then they'd be notified if they're at the same bar - very cool.
ninjashogun: I'd like to introduce ughlol based on my conversations with him.
ninjashogun: I was talking about how many billionaires/millionaires I know as an American (just 1-2 of the former even if we include mirceau) :)
ninjashogun: guys, I'm watching htis channel as actually in talking with ughlol I'm the one who mentioned mirceau as being high-net-worth. he's from India and has access to a much poorer network of investors than some western countries
ughlol: i mean, i dont want you hiring a hitman with btc to take me out right? :P
ughlol: i did
mircea_popescu: you had ? i hadn't noticed.
artifexd: I can state with certainty that Ecuador has rules requiring notrized documentation from the not-present parent for taking a child out of the country. The US doesn't.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform when i crossed there it was like... lolk.
mircea_popescu: i thought that was a major issue in the us because of kidnapping concerns
artifexd: She won't, but mom and I will.
mircea_popescu: i mean for one thing you can't even get one till you're 18 in many places
mircea_popescu: i wonder how many of the internet haxxors ever had a passport made in the first place.
dexX7: he's never sarcastic and i'm serious
bitcoinpete: did I go too far?
mircea_popescu: i get that. hence the pine comment.
asciilifeform: actually i admit i've always been curious about ion migration in sram cells, but the literature is mostly silent on the subject.
asciilifeform: my apologies if i'm the only one who finds this interesting.
asciilifeform: (yes, i know, they're almost certainly in the $10K american gizmo that my unit is a chinese copy of.)
mircea_popescu: i imagine they would be.
steven-__: I think she said this recently in an effort to stay relevant
steven-__: http://www.reddit.com/r/Bitcoin/comments/20nequ/leah_mcgrath_goodman_i_have_learned_this_about/
asciilifeform: benkay: i thought that's what btc 'testnet' was for.
benkay: "ya i guess you're right el oh el oh el"
benkay: from the local bitcoin room: "omg i broke my doge-wallet"
benkay: okay i have found a use for the alts
benkay: i think you mean in two weeks
midnightmagic: I think this is the paper here: http://arxiv.org/abs/1204.0354
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: if you recall, i found you in the first place because of a letter from mpoepr. she was never anything other than impeccably polite to me.
mircea_popescu: i was thinking more along the lines of, hey dear pentagon, if you're looking to start a research project into how to give people physical pain over the wire... i got the only documented case of this happening working for me.
mircea_popescu: "Every post from MPOE-PR I read gives me physical pain"
asciilifeform: i recall she had lands/estates or something?
mircea_popescu: which is how i conclude silicon valley ain't got much more life left in it.
mircea_popescu: i wish some of those "business leaders" or w/e they are actually came forward to plainly state that they don't care, they'll never care, and the peons can get back to the mine.
asciilifeform: yeah i read this even, but i still don't 'get' it. what does the woman want?
asciilifeform: i read the first turd, and my puny brain was utterly unable to determine wtf the deal was.
mircea_popescu: i pray they have the wisdom to choose correctly.
midnightmagic: mircea_popescu: No I'm trying to find the link now, it's a really weird little paper that nobody I mention it to has heard of.
midnightmagic: where "enough" is smaller than I ever expected it to be
asciilifeform: as i gather, you'd want to covertly connect two nodes (in 'distant') parts of graph with leased line
midnightmagic: ^^ probably running more-connected nodes than I am.
mircea_popescu: i've never seen proof of one happening either.
midnightmagic: bitcoinyeezus: I have heard of them. I have never personally witnessed one happening.
lopp: that's the direction I seem to be headed :-)
lopp: gotcha - I keep hearing that it's trivial but I guess I'd prefer to see actual numbers regarding, say, how many SPV client requests the average node is handling / how many historical block and tx lookups it's handling, how many invalid txs it's deciding not to relay, etc
midnightmagic: there is virtually no load. i run an experimental node that deals with a few dozen transactions a day on an eeepc 701 just for fun.
lopp: as yeezus noted, we don't really know enough to say whether or not these numbers should be underwhelming. I'm of the opinion that we don't have enough insight into the load that the nodes are bearing.
artifexd: loop: At the bottom of that page " Bitnodes uses Bitcoin protocol version 70001 (i.e. >= /Satoshi:0.7.x/), so nodes with older protocol version will be skipped."
lopp: i do
mircea_popescu: i only bring gifts to chicks that dress properly.
mircea_popescu: i guess in the end people do suck.
bitcoinpete: benkay: I coulda sworn I went through that rigamarole once before… hopefully this is the last public flailing
mircea_popescu: heh i guess they covered it by calling it "digital currency"
ThickAsThieves: whwn i share who wrote it, you'll understand why i'm questioning it
ThickAsThieves: just lookin for some insight on bitcoin, i'll leave the wars to the media
Dimsler: i dont' think its actually named
ThickAsThieves: i prefer a response from someone i think knows what;s up
Dimsler: i don't think it matters
ThickAsThieves: wow, i didnt know that the owners of about 130,000 properties are without their title deeds in Cyprus
ThickAsThieves: ironically i probly used it to determine i should ask for a refund on my BFL
ThickAsThieves: bitcoinx is pretty old, i doubt anyone here runs it too
mircea_popescu: "The controversial owner of MPEx is" o look, i r controversial nao.
asciilifeform: i last heard of it ages ago, might have vanished.
asciilifeform: Apocalyptic: various hedge funds; and some consumer bank in france, if i recall
asciilifeform: i thought this was old news.
asciilifeform: for some reason i thought that the slow cooling of the 5k background hum was already 'smoking gun.'
Mats_cd03: i do love me some mangosteen
Mats_cd03: i wonder what a crashed airplane with mangosteens in hold would look like
wao-ender: > i don't see how they can make that up from shipping 3-4 tons of mangosteens
chetty: I wonder have radar setups gotten lazy? that is only bothering to look for transponders?
Apocalyptic: I suppose you could achieve that with a special setup with multiple coordinated radars
Apocalyptic: mircea_popescu, I have no knowledge of a radar indentifying how long an object is or whatever
wao-ender: I think mh370 flying at different altitude
Apocalyptic: that i would be more likely to believe
wao-ender: also, I'm reading, there was 50 seats blocked for some special cargo on the plane?
Apocalyptic: I did
wao-ender: I think for upthrust is one km still safe
cazalla: i breed NZ whites for meat, some of them would do the exact same thing or even bite if i harassed them as in that video
isthisreallyreal: Sorry to bother..! but where do i find the "log" ?:)
