mircea_popescu: where is the official place to trade monero ?
mircea_popescu: fluffypony is this poloniex thing your folks' ?
mircea_popescu: seems it only exists to trade xmr this thing, since https://poloniex.com/exchange#btc_str styill spends 90% of the page listing the xmr market. weird.
mircea_popescu: so according to poloniex, 10 cents worth of stellar (at 0.004) and 64 bitcoins' worth of same (at 0.00whatever) sold in the past what is this, day ?
mircea_popescu: STR0.003871110.080+0.10Stellar
mircea_popescu: STR0.0000165463.358-2.88Stellar
mircea_popescu: a no str
mircea_popescu: is stellar xmr ?
mircea_popescu: oh inside network ?! nobody i know would touch it. inside of what ? got its own wot ?
mircea_popescu: well of coruse you'd assume, no doub on that socre.
mircea_popescu: where does it even trade these days ?
mircea_popescu: can you even sell 10mn "stellar" without ruining the market permanently ?
mircea_popescu: that's whence the 1250 comes from
mircea_popescu: ;;calc 2000 / 21340 * 134
mircea_popescu: ah now i see his logic. so
mircea_popescu: see above.
mircea_popescu: you got 10k ripple seconds and bitbet got 31536000 bitcoin-seconds
mircea_popescu: if someone puts 1 btc for 1 year on bitbet, and someone puts 1000 ripples for 10 seconds on your site,
mircea_popescu: nonono. wagers-time.
mircea_popescu: how do you figure significantly less ?!
mircea_popescu: plus perhaps a little something for the missus ?
mircea_popescu: let me guess, it would roughly repay what you think the valuable value of your time spent on it so far
mircea_popescu: how about 1250 ripples ? or 1250 stellars ?
mircea_popescu: that's cool, but wh ydo you think the site's worth something in bitcoin ? neither ripple nor stellars are worth anything in bitcoin
mircea_popescu: and limited to ripple and "stellar", ie, two dead scamcoins ?
mircea_popescu: so what do these do, exactly ? some sort of coin flip thing ?
mircea_popescu: you know, kinda different story.
mircea_popescu: market-valued.
mircea_popescu: ripp, lef and lip
mircea_popescu: i up noobs anyway ya know.
mircea_popescu: !up BigBitz
mircea_popescu: !up Rippleflip_
mircea_popescu: To see the cast list for Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat scroll down to the bottom of the page and click on the attatchment.
mircea_popescu: haha check out the almost-mscomic font.
mircea_popescu: motherfucker. the cheek.
mircea_popescu: place for a bunch of derps to go and be all weird and pretend it's jesus' fault amirite.
mircea_popescu: "christisn school campus" wtf is that even
mircea_popescu: lol
mircea_popescu: http://www.tennessean.com/story/insession/2015/02/03/swingers-club-council/22813945/
mircea_popescu: computers are evil, there's no two ways about it.
mircea_popescu: sarcasm tag's one history!
mircea_popescu: PeterL i hope for the sake of your soul that you're being kako-level sarcastic.
mircea_popescu: not even medicine. not even religion.
mircea_popescu: i dunno of any "profession" "industree" etc ever in history of mankind to be so fucking... i don't even know. inconsistent ? mixed ?
mircea_popescu: jurov o.O ?!
mircea_popescu: like 5k over a day ?
mircea_popescu: anyway, that's all for me. nighty!
mircea_popescu: whichever's not 2gb is the one you're working on
mircea_popescu: mod6 they become full at 2gb
mircea_popescu: ben_vulpes have a logwatcher trigger ? renice everyything ?
mircea_popescu: there should also be a bdb based method but it probably would take longer to untangle
mircea_popescu: also blkindex.dat
mircea_popescu: if the worst comes to worst diff blk00x.dat pre and post
mircea_popescu: right.
mircea_popescu: well is it the same ?
mircea_popescu: but no one else ever ehard of this, and so we wish to see his block
mircea_popescu: ben_vulpes the idea with the native cruftery is, he found a reliable way to wedge the bitcoind at a certain heright which just so happens to be the checkpoint
mircea_popescu: a damned sight more optimistic than you, this pessimist
mircea_popescu: g when their decks are awash. It is only that the other element in man, the lazy, cowardly, debt-bilking adulterer who is inside all of us, can never be suppressed altogether and needs a hearing occasionally."
mircea_popescu: sentiments make no appeal. Nevertheless the high sentiments always win in the end, leaders who offer blood, toil, tears and sweat always get more out of their followers than those who offer safety and a good time. When it comes to the pinch, human beings are heroic. Women face childbed and the scrubbing brush, revolutionaries keep their mouths shut in the torture chamber, battleships go down with their guns still firin
mircea_popescu: here asciilifeform : "I never read the proclamations of generals before battle, the speeches of Führers and prime ministers, the solidarity songs of public schools and left-wing political parties, national anthems, Temperance tracts, papal encyclicals and sermons against gambling and contraception, without seeming to hear in the background a chorus of raspberries from all the millions of common men to whom these high
mircea_popescu: an' tbh it wasn't much more than a passing remark anyway, so we've made more of it than its frail back can carry
mircea_popescu: kinda my point.
mircea_popescu: wasn't this improved out of it ?
mircea_popescu: you'd normally expect the opposite
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform the original point wasn't that there don't exist profilers, but that it's rare for a language to put the bytecode in the programmer's face, and especially for a new and (at least in my perception) hip one.
mircea_popescu: moar like the evil one's used to
mircea_popescu: incidentally this is a shitty asm!
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform that asm code breaks on https << unknown instruction
mircea_popescu: i never said otherwise!
mircea_popescu: well obviously profilers exist. just, people seem sorta shy to put the bytestream in your face so.
mircea_popescu: adlai what about the profiler ?
mircea_popescu: practically, closer to bash for that matter.
mircea_popescu: the sorts of tediums i have machines do is generally seen as closest to c
mircea_popescu: im {un/}fortunate to be in this position where thje actual business end of my mental life can in no manner by done by machines. so lisp is entirely useless to me.
mircea_popescu: perforce.
mircea_popescu: !s lisp
mircea_popescu: still, this is like the first thing i've seen in nigh on 20 years making me almost feel like trying to code in it.
mircea_popescu: so they are.
mircea_popescu: ianae.
mircea_popescu: supposedly faster than c
mircea_popescu: this would be the first compiler brave enough to expose itself to programmer scrutiny thus
mircea_popescu: You can see the compiled assembly code for any just typed in function ☟︎
mircea_popescu: actually julia sounds very interesting, have we discussed yet ?
mircea_popescu: it takes them ~3 y.
mircea_popescu: i think it's ripe for a revolution then
mircea_popescu: i think node.js was like 2011
mircea_popescu: yeah, what IS the web crowd doing these days ?
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo that was the lulziest thing ever. "we'll break with 2.x but still have 1.x issues"
mircea_popescu: decimation other people's could haves you know...
mircea_popescu: i actually use it on occasion, when bash is gnarly.
mircea_popescu: ^
mircea_popescu: decimation except ruby came to peak and then withered before python managed to get a new major version out :D
mircea_popescu: pure us capitalims i tell ya
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo no, it just wants to go on doing what it's best at!
mircea_popescu: cool.
mircea_popescu: well... biggers, at any case.
mircea_popescu: decimation but it's being held captive ?
mircea_popescu: can't say i dislike his approach.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform basically, this thread is about new guy trying to make sense of the batshit insane that is b-a.
