a server as well then stole it back

mircea_popescu: nubbins` in point of case, it's
a major improvement over the previous stuff
nubbins`: just found
a wart on my finger. turns out it's dough.
nubbins`: someone should just IPO
a series of magazine ads and six months salary and get it over with
mircea_popescu: dexX7 you just think so because you're
a one man band that never leaves his appartment.
[\]: NeoBee has pulled
a runner?
mircea_popescu: poor finley already said he's not it. actually, what he said was, "i could claim it and go to my grave
a celebrated inventor. it'd be sweet. however... i did not do it, sadly. stop hounding me."
TestingUnoDosTre: it says bitcoinwisdom uses
a mix of 2016 long term linear and 504 short term linear to estimate
TestingUnoDosTre: alright I've asked this before, but I got disconnected. Why does gribble have such
a lower prediction for next difficulty compared to bitcoinwisdom. Is one sampling way more or way less blocks than the other?
nubbins`: #bitcoin-assets: where $150m/y is
a problem
tg2: Like
a decentralized craigslist

a bunch of people in cyprus got several months worth of salary that they wouldn't have had otherwise

a model which would be great for this kind of transparency

ThickAsThieves: there was
a portion seperately allocated for employee program of some sort I think, not tradable
ThickAsThieves: <mircea_popescu> so apparently lmb gifted itself
a hefty 28% equity stake post-ipo /// To my knowledge LMB never gifted itself anything nor moved shares to Havelock
tg2: It feels like the irs just said "here's our stance" and left the door open to an overriding ruling from
a larger authority
tg2: If there was
a landmark supreme court case
nubbins`: pretty sure he's
a paid shill for whoever has
a buck
mircea_popescu: so apparently lmb gifted itself
a hefty 28% equity stake post-ipo ?
tg2: They basically made it
a paperwork disaster to actually tax it
dignork: asciilifeform, it's
a complex device containing OTP, so not
a strict match

a problem with. because who'd you have
a problem with ? they're not here.
mircea_popescu: "I stumbled upon this brilliant piece of journalism written by one “Mircea Popescu”. The title of the article reads “Why Dogecoin is
a scam…” and the contents are amusing."

a systematic approach to compensation that makes it very difficult for anyone to get
a better offer"
decimation: to compensation that makes it very difficult for anyone to get
a better offer"
kanzure: e.g. it's not just qtwebkit but it's
a qt-release that includes
a release of qtwebkit which includes
a release of webkit. but the real thing you care about is webkit!
kanzure: even when phantomjs2 comes out in the next few months i would recommend caution because the dependency on qtwebki from
a qt release means that you're waiting multiple months for bugfixes to get into phantomjs (so far webkit updates are so far behind it's sad)
kanzure: tg2: technically no, webkigtk+ requires X unless you find
a way to get gtk running without x.. there used to be
a way with cairo but nobody seems to care anymore.
tg2: it makes one hell of
a sick crawler
tg2: It renders css and JavaScript without
a ui.
tg2: you'll always get
a sincere response
tg2: drop by any time and ask as stupid of
a question as you want
dexX7: the "next diff" algorithm is only
a simple linear projection (hashrate-now/hashrate-last = hashrate-increase%) and bitcoinwisdom uses something more sophisticated
☟︎ dexX7: haha reddit about friedcat: "I don't know, anonymous according to /r/bitcoin means "will steal bitcoins in future". How do we know the ASICs don't have
a function that sends your mined bitcoins to some address at some point in the future or installs
a virus on your computer? Is the hardware opensourced?"
truffles: there are
a few other bloggers itc
ThickAsThieves: that will transform our understanding of currency and credit, this book will help you engineer money. You're about to unlock the API to
a new economy. This book is your key."

a bitcoin wallet to buy
a cup of coffee, to running
a bitcoin marketplace with hundreds of thousands of transactions, or collaboratively building new financial innovations
truffles:
a pr person that is total pr nightmare, only on internet
jurov: chetty maybe you can make
a little development detour?
Namworld: Someone, please do
a retro parody of

a good bunch of merchants
tg2: fk its taking
a long time to generate
a gpg key with 9 matching characters in it's long ID lol
lnovy: the whole pc architecture is
a big matrix, it looks and behaves pretty much nothing like you see it

a ponzi lol

a gay club ?
mircea_popescu: "I have read your website and it is obviously that your
a foggot."
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform im sure it's perfectly fine for hosting
a blog etc.
