mircea_popescu:
i'll be more than happy if
i have a compile within a week heh.
Jere_Jones:
I'm about to take my daughter to art class.
I'd be happy to when
I get back. It'll be about 3 hours.
Jere_Jones:
I don't think
I've ever mentioned the os that
I use.
mircea_popescu: ;;later tell bitcoinpete the cannonical form of that where
i'm from is "pasare ca porcu' nu-
i."
davout: ThickAsThieves:
i might whip something up quickly
davout:
i'm not saying it's absolutely impossible
ThickAsThieves:
I don't think you're ever gonna see exchanges fully publishing cold wallets
jurov: Oh
i see. First time there something completely unrelated flashed so
i closed it.
jurov: What transparency thing?
I thought it't for ads.
MisterE: no
I got it, the tree of democracy must be regularly watered with the blood of tyrants and patriots and all
BingoBoingo:
I think
I've found a fake book [Prolly scam]//www.betcoinsports.com/faq
chetty_:
I doubt even 'oldtimers' here really grasp what bitcoin is .. or where it might go
BingoBoingo: Well, in 2004 freshman year of college
I put extra financial aid dollars into buying Sun Microsystems stocks, so
I have little room to criticise anyone.
bitcoinpete: If you could call Bitcoin a technology, it would be the 3rd after Apple and Twitter that
I was in the first 1%. Not on my CV,
I swear
bitcoinpete: True.
I'm glad
I moved when
I did.
I look around at the "successful" people in my community and none of them are even close to getting it
BingoBoingo:
I first hear of it in 2009 and mistunderstood it as some Derp distributed computing project.
bitcoinpete: 1.5 years later, after reading more economics, finance, philosophy, risk management, and
I finally got it
bitcoinpete:
I first heard about BTC in late 2011 at $0.90 and misunderstood it as a PayPal competitor
BingoBoingo:
I hang out here because during the great fork of March 2013 people here made more sense than people in -dev did.
BingoBoingo:
I made decent BTC through early 2013 abusing altcoins and betting, but seeing how fast shit was rising made the mistake of cashing out too readily because
I wasn't as read in trilema as
I could have been.
BingoBoingo: So late 2012
I started trying to get some without buying it (huge mistake when they were trading for $4-6)
BingoBoingo:
I was lucky to come into the space when ASIC in general looked like scams but GPUs didn't look promising either.
BingoBoingo:
I blog some too, but
I've been neglecting the blog for two long (a few weeks)
BingoBoingo: Swatted it and smashed it into the covers (only evidence it was a scorpion was the parts intact. Didn't completely wake up then, but... When
I woke up
I couldn't sit.
BingoBoingo: My introduction came though when
I was going to Mizzou and one of those fuckers came into my apartment in the middle of summer while
I was sleeping, and
I guess
I tried to swat it off my ass or something.
bitcoinpete:
I'll visit St Louis after
I visit Savannah GA, Washington DC, Nashville, Cincinnati, maybe even Detroit.
bitcoinpete: Chicago's great to visit,
I hear it's terrible to live in
BingoBoingo:
I'm going to take a wild guess. Are you an Aussie or a Brit bitcoinpete
BingoBoingo:
I just needed PE credits and
I did power walking and though how hard can badminton be?
BingoBoingo: Seriously, if it wasn't for the electric line
I would have taken down the rest of the thing myself, sunroom be damned.
bitcoinpete:
I also played badminton in college, scholarship and everything
BingoBoingo:
I am rather poor at badminton, but
I took a class in college, like most college classes it probably only served to make me worse at the pursuit.
BingoBoingo: And yesterday (Thursday) morning after passing out from a mix of Vodka, instant coffee, and concussion
I also had that older debris to clear as well.
BingoBoingo: Well,
I did mean Firday literally. Yesterday and today's winds left a good portion of one of those Woody bastards on my roof.
bitcoinpete: especially since
I need to stay nimble for a badminton tournament tomorrow
bitcoinpete: They were going to a "show" and there's only so much hearing damage
I can take
bitcoinpete: The houseguests have departed and
I'm back
greenspan_fan:
I'm thinking that counts as extremely taboo for muslims
BingoBoingo:
I don't think
I've actualy shaved, rather than merely trimmed my face in the past year, but
I have shaved my head probably 10 times more frequently than
I have hard my hair trimmed.
Duffer1:
i'm sure it could be, but if you're not doing it yourself then it would be overlly expensive
greenspan_fan:
I'd try using a straight razor but tv has made me think that they will peel off my face
BingoBoingo: Ah. Here we have Pacific farmed salmon and Atlantic mostly wild salmon. Usually though
I prefer putting up with cooking to enjoy the local freshwater fish though.
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu:
I like that Salmon doesn't live long enough to accumulate the weird shit tuna does.
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo pretty much my favourite.
i used to get premium tuna but now
i dont trust it.
mircea_popescu: Duffer1
i used to do that,
i had a barber using a how you call the things, like a knife
Duffer1: r/wicked_edge
I would actually recommend
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform:
I imagine if
I ran a cube farm somewhere
I'd have everyone's terminal set up to report that it was running Windows 95 release and Netscape 4.0
mike_c:
i'm on it right now.
i looked at compiling it, but gave up reasonably quickly. looked like
i would have to modify jamconfig pretty heavily.
mircea_popescu:
i recall someone saying they run windows at some point
mike_c: anyways,
i'm the boss :)
mike_c:
i tried, but since it crashed
i had to work..
mike_c: otherwise
i would be crafting, not chatting :D
BingoBoingo:
I think all of the incentives are to favor releasing unintelligent things.
mircea_popescu:
i don't remember the last time a bank released something intelligent.
lnovy: mircea_popescu: prague,
I think
I know even where...
BingoBoingo: According to the Serena Williams principal
I'm going to suggest an interesting sweat tomorrow might come from betting Sara McMann to beat Ronda Rousey, IF you can find an appropriate venue to do so (Sorry for dropping the ball on proposing a BitBet)
Duffer1:
i'm not sure
i'm prepared to click that
BingoBoingo: That, might be more painful than the sauce, because liquid is going to stimulate a bowel movement in short order. Probably before they can get a picture. Then it is done. A peeled pepper is going to get crushed by an anus and
I imagine would linger longer than the sauce would have.
mircea_popescu: right. well...
i guess you'll have to peel the peppers.
BingoBoingo:
I know mircea_popescu suggested peppers, but with skin intact, much of the entertainment isn't going to leave the pepper.
BingoBoingo: kakobrekla: Sure.
I've got coin from Betting against Serena to devote to some lols.
BingoBoingo: bitcoinpete:
I think you've got your Middle America metaphore flipped around. Buffet chooses Omaha for a reason.
Duffer1: "
I can’t separate out the signal when there’s that much noise."
i had that exact conclusion a couple months ago
pankkake:
I didn't know that when
I started creating bets though!
pankkake: well,
I guess it depends on the gamble.
I'd agree that most things gamblers and traders think as skill isn't
benkay:
i just doubt
i'd do much better than stochastic bouncing around, pankkake - much like gamblers or traders. up one day, down the next; cognitively biased against tracking returns etc. it's a goddamn emotional shitshow is what it is.
BingoBoingo: benkay: It's less learning how to gamble and more trying to spot pricing errors and finding patterns. One pattern
I have found profitable is if betting against Serena Williams would multiply your bet by 12 or less in a certain match, there's prolly a fuckton of money to be had.
benkay: some days
i wonder if learning how to gamble effectively is +ev or not...
BingoBoingo:
I really need to start paying more attention to MMA matchups. There's a decent fight tomorrow and
I totally missed the chance to submit a Bitbet.
MisterE: mircea_popescu:
I'm not waiting to get in at 500
I'm wanting to see if support at 500 is broken how low it can go
