BingoBoingo: diametric: Why did they just go for
a board and not
a workstation?
Naphex:
a lot of interest in tutorial videos
pankkake: call it
a guy who made commits
punkman: mike_c: altcoin has
a core dev?
fluffypony: pankkake: I'll have you know, it was created by
a CNBC contributor, so therefore.
fluffypony: "Step 1. Build
a Community. Step 2: Merchant Acceptance. Step 3: Oh, this is where we hire developers."
BingoBoingo: moiety: Tell them you are looking forward to football this season and finish with
a chant of M-I-Z. They should respond with Z-O-U. If they don't offer that response it is
a reportable offense.
fluffypony: "I can’t tell if the altcoin people are trying to deliberately scam people or just not thinking ahead to the logical conclusions of these schemes. They’re trying to hit another bubble. They regret not buying Bitcoin when they could have. So they want to replay it. It’s like replaying
a childhood trauma to overcome it but you just make it worse."
☟︎ diametric: in fact, I got
a whole 5k satoshis free with my account
BingoBoingo: I still can't believe the SEC implicitly offered MPEx such
a glowing endorsement today.
Naphex: it will rape 2 days max of your time and insure you have
a stable performant solution
moiety: :D i may need
a bit of help from asciilifeform buti have
a feeling it says "pet the OS, bitch"
mike_c: cool. thanks. didn't there used to be
a way to get 30day vol?
BingoBoingo: Naphex: Basically, taking the "micro cloud" concept and adding
a dash of shop class. Then when it's down to one functioning board and/or disk replacing the unit.
BingoBoingo: xmj: Why would adding happen at the same data center. "Rats Nest" is
a perfectly defensible infrastructure strategy.
xmj: BingoBoingo: seriously. i'm sure it's cheaper to have the server sent to the datacenter and hooked up by
a technician
BingoBoingo: xmj: You drive there yourself so you can see if the place is somewhere you can comfortably park
a server.
xmj: get
a minion to do that for you.
BingoBoingo: xmj: Well, it is
a little hard to weld
a VPS shut before you drive it to the colo rack.
BingoBoingo: xmj: I'm also contemplating dedicated hardware for
a simple wordpress blog.
assbot: The First 'Bitcoin 2.0' Kickstarter-like Campaign Was
A Wildly Successful $7 Million Disaster - Forbes
midnightmagic: our discussion centred on how you thought he was using
a coinjoin'd transaction (re: "I taint the rich!" bitcointalk thread) to steal peoples' money or use the transaction as
a historical proof that he had "access" to it in some form and thereby mislead less enlightened people for the purposes of loans or business shenanigans.
moiety: totally fine! I'm sure i have
a couple spare lying around
moiety: jurov: 1. can i skip the personal drive and just have
a manul instead? 2. was it me you were looking for earlier?
mike_c: i don't know why everyone is so worried about women in bitcoin. the number of foreigners in bitcoin seems like
a much bigger problem.
fluffypony: I think it's quite funny that
a subreddit will end up becoming the center of the new financial reality. In
a couple of years we'll have goldman sachs execs making sure to post all their bitcoin related announcements here. ;)"
nubbins`: i did
a portrait of pankkake once
princessnell: i used to think to myself "well, these women are at least promoting the tech in
a way that other women can understand." but they're only thinking of it as
a consumption tool, which is worse than doing nothing at all.
pankkake: nobody should know if you're
a dog
pankkake: I had no idea chetty was
a bitcoin woman until
a few weeks ago, which is how things should usually be on the internet
danielpbarron: part of my argument comes from my belief in The Bible which clearly says that all women should submit to
a man (whether their father or their husband) and they should only do something (like coding, for example) if their man ordered them to do so; it's not
a very responsible man that delegates his programming needs to
a woman (who is probably better suited for things like child-rearing (although exceptions may apply))
princessnell: pankkake there's
a whole cottage industry of bitcoin lady #brands
pankkake: you're supposed to have
a unique name
bitstein: My issue is even if we were to assume that to be true, whining about it on Twitter and on blogs does nothing to solve the problem. If you want to address that, write software that makes Bitcoin easier to use and accessible to more people. If you can't code, learn
a language and help translate. Essentially, do anything *but* whine on Twitter and your blog.
nubbins`: i'm not fully sure that that's
a sound premise
danielpbarron: it's not stupid facebook where all replies are
a big wall of tldr; under the original post
artifexd: danielpbarron: Thanks, but I just notice that conversation is over 3 months old. Probably
a little late to get into it with her.
nubbins`: "The SEC’s investigation was conducted by Daphna
A. Waxman, Daphne P. Downes, and Philip R. Moustakis of the New York Regional Office. Ms Waxman's contribution was particularly unimpressive; she has left the SEC to pursue other ventures."
chetty: The shares of SatoshiDICE were listed on MPEx,
a assbot: The worst thing is there's actually
a case to be made. But this is extraordinarily ignorant.
http://t.co/BCWxgWZKLp /ARStrasser /Antiwar2
nubbins`: "The shares were listed on an entity known as the Global Bitcoin Stock Exchange (“GLBSE”), which purported to run
a Bitcoin stock exchange."
chetty: for
a total of 45,500 bitcoins
chetty: res from investors at
a price of 0.0035
nubbins`: more lose in the sense of "we paid
a bunch of shitbags their wages for doing pointless work, and they blew their money on nail painting and chicken bowls"
nubbins`: "the sec is pleased to announce that it suffered
a net loss of only $150,000 in securing mr voorhees' conviction"
chetty: yeah it almost reads like
a joke
mike_c: that must have been
a great phone call. "Mr. Voorhees, give us 50 btc and it all goes away". "Uhh, seriously? Ok!"
benkay: and in other, slightly related news, the creator of satoshi dice's daughter died in
a plane crash
fluffypony: "giving up the profits of $15,843.98 and paying
a penalty of $35,000"
nubbins`: "Voorhees agreed to settle the charges by giving up the profits of $15,843.98 and paying
a penalty of $35,000."
artifexd: You'd need over 25k shares to cover
a 50% arb. There aren't that many shares for sell under .00009 on havelol.
mike_c: Mats_cd03: dunno, but i think less than
a day in general.
mike_c: artifexd: so where does that leave the shares. owning
a share of s.mg on havelock is only worth 50% as much as
a share on mpex. crazy, huh. they are way overpricing those havelock shares :)
mike_c: does nobody in here have
a havelol account? i guess it's not worth picking up the bit-dime in arbitrage.
fluffypony: so really they'd only be doing themselves
a favour
fluffypony: I think it's
a great idea - your private key is made from your fingerprint. That way if you don't put your finger down *just* right you get
a whole new privkey and can't access the old one till you figure out how you put your finger down previously
bitcoinpete: mike_c: didn't know that about altcoin… i don't know why i thought it was
a costlier project
fluffypony: so I think we should do IPOgen - it can create
a website,
a logo, an IPO forum post, and list you on CryptoStocks
bitcoinpete: fluffypony: heard of things like that. $50 for
a coin or w/e
fluffypony: as
a KNOWN SCAMMER I should've known better
assbot: Silk Road as
a Self-Regulating Black Market | The mlaut
princessnell: bitcoinpete i almost did the same and went into law. dodged
a bullet there!
fluffypony: code has failed in production we'll shut the startup down, start
a new one, buy the old one out, and then repeat. We call this Multi Startup Synergistic Prefailure, and it's inspired by the work of Tsukino Usagi.
fluffypony: ok so let me tell you about my new startup: it's going to be
a one-click backup service called iWalletBackup. It will let you use Siri via raise-to-talk to back all your wallets up to iCloud. It's being written in Swift and will use mongoDB as
a backend. It can scale nearly instantly because it will just fire up new AWS instances on-demand. Our development methodology is fail-fast-fail-often, where we'll write an iteration, and then once that
bitcoinpete: princessnell: from your rt: my wife works in the same field as her dad and my mother works in
a related field to hers.
mike_c: well, i'm not looking to reignite that silly argument. "bootstrap lean fail-fast pivot" is
a joke.
mike_c: xmj:;;rate mircea_popescu -2 has no idea about lean startup strategy << wait, shouldn't that merit
a positive rating?
mike_c: hm.. all the #b-
a blogs should charge the same credits, spend them to read the other blogs, get them when people read your blog. talk about
a circle jerk.
fluffypony: I haven't even told you that I'm
a Nigerian prince yet
fluffypony: ,,rate fluffypony -1 obviously I'm
a well-known scammer
fluffypony: "Did you know fluffypony is actually
a well-known scammer who has ripped off dozens of people with his openrigs scam? I know -- what's he even doing here?"
mircea_popescu: And despite people saying "RAID is not
a backup"" << "... i classified it as off-site so it is in
a sauna somewhere which is the highest security level there is."
Naphex: "This" makes me seem totally irresponsible. But here's the deal; we had regular, weekly, off-site backups. Even if someone got
a hold of the backups they would be unable to take money out of the wallet without the password. And despite people saying "RAID is not
a backup""
fluffypony: thestringpuller: "Don't be
a "fucking" retard, and watch your language with me." - lol, you have incurred the wrath of usagi!
Naphex: "Actually I have to admit I am
a little suprised at the negativity I'm getting over this, it's as if people automatically assume every failure is intentional."
Mats_cd03: dude's sipping mai tais and lolling at
a laptop somewhere in bermuda
bitcoinpete: fluffypony: i got
a kick out of those later comments on the bitcointalk thread
Naphex: 16:07 <+mircea_popescu> xe4l, nobody is going to drop such
a valuable exploit on such
a shitty thing << you don't burn exploits
mircea_popescu: xe4l, nobody is going to drop such
a valuable exploit on such
a shitty thing
chetty: I guess we all could use
a refresher every now and then
xe4l: if anyone has
a desire for strong anonymity, pm me, someone I know is setting up something interesting
