BingoBoingo: I dunno that I was the one to tell that to dooglus.
pankkake: ah, I'm not the only one!
BingoBoingo: That roughly seems to be it. I've traversed quite a bit of this handle of vodka I trekked through the polar vortex to acquire, but it sounds right. Depositors just weren't inputs.io victims yet.
benkay: ah so if i can recap
BingoBoingo: benkay: As I understand he made a deposit to Dooglus in advance
BingoBoingo: benkay: Who said holding has to be cold. I'm thinking Fidelity bonds and such. One of the few people who dealt with Inputs.io and didn't get fucked was Dooglus who made TradeFortress keep a bond with him in exchange for him accepting deposits though TF's platform. Such things seem a natural growth from GPG contracts and other crypto goodness.
BingoBoingo: I think 3 sounds like a good over under for how many line betting ventures might fold tomorrw
BingoBoingo: KRS1: I'm not talking about that. The BTC/Fiat interface is boring and overdone. I'm thinking applications of BTC tht take advantage of its function as a store of value (ie the most popular use of BTC)
BingoBoingo: KRS1: I'm more convinced that as Bitcoin matures people will progress through more and more advanced holdign styles
KRS1: im interested in moving toward an algorithmic trading style..not sure where to start and i dont want to write my own bot from scratch
KRS1: funny, some are helpless to it i noticed..darwin has a solution for them too
BingoBoingo: Wait, I though Jurov was carrying the breifcase
ArsKisS: kakobrekla, nah, i rather keep them
ArsKisS: kakobrekla, last one sounds extra shady, two first I've heard something before.
pankkake: "A consortium is an association of two or more individuals" ok I guess that works
mircea_popescu: how does it make pricing more straightforward ? i thought it makes it a nightmare
pankkake: I thought tennis was the sport for rich people. like golf
mircea_popescu: i imagine throwing away btc is a lot more painful than it used to be too
BingoBoingo: I dunno. Around here people will pay you to take a horse. We really need to get to eating them already.
mike_c: next time i beat the horse i will have a simulator in hand to show how the alternate model works.
mike_c: I agree weight of some type is important. but we beat that horse dead a couple weeks ago.
BingoBoingo: Sports betting I've come to see is kind of a niche market.
jurov: i dunno, i can easily imagine football junkies prefer betting where they know the win in advance
BingoBoingo: mike_c: I don't know if they will ever be too popular. The problem of tracking a whole season seems better suited to bucket shops and line betting operations. Marquee events and championships that can get traffic though should do better on the BitBet model though.
mike_c: i agree with mp, once football bets are popular on bitbet we will know the gold rush is over.
mircea_popescu: i love the bbet commenters every time
BingoBoingo: mike_c: I wrote this one http://bitbet.us/bet/650/florida-state-to-win-bcs-national-championship-low/
BingoBoingo: mike_c: I did the bitbet too on both sides, but they are closed
BingoBoingo: mike_c: I wouldn't take the spread though. On value bets liek this ML tends to be better in the long run
mircea_popescu: i imagine if someone sends 10k btc on their stated odds all sorts of fun ensues.
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo i love it how they never advertise their house limit, too
BingoBoingo: jurov: It means an Auburn win returns roughly quadruple your initial bet. Looks like similar odds I've been buying, but I've heard that site was scam already.
jurov: i know how it works
jurov: it's there but i never did line betting, what does this mean?
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: I've been putting money on Auburn at as many books as I can that haven't been rather conclusively labeled scam yet. Cheaper exercise than the one you did with Patrick Harnett.
mircea_popescu: i would imagine all of them strictly consist of one derp, his .5 btc budget and his dreams and aspirations
BingoBoingo: I imagine such a black Tuesday outcome would be great publicity for BitBet though.
BingoBoingo: jurov: Because so many people are betting on Auburn. Auburn is given odds that make it a great value pick. Since most BTC line betting operations pull lines off of USA Today instead of letting odds play on their own and collecting their vig, if Auburn wins I imagine at least a few won't be able to pay winnings.
BingoBoingo: I'm kind of curious if any line betting operations are going to fold up tomorrow morning.
pankkake: why run? I'm thinking I'd do pretty much the same
KRS1: thats what its fo! i love perl
jurov: i'm doing reports in perl
mircea_popescu: me ? i don't have excel.
pankkake: though I shouldn't need porn if I have slaves. hmm
pankkake: I need slaves to sort my files
mircea_popescu: with any luck at all, i'll forget to roll the .7 bitcents into next month's report and then it'll look really bad lol
kakobrekla: well obv is all my fault cause i sign the thing on the end
benkay: i don't want to 'use' anything - i want to deploy some capital and have some less generated by a human for me.
pankkake: I used to dislike bootstrap because so many websites use it. but so what? interfaces are meant to be standardized
mike_c: i'm more interested in the identity side though. what's the right compromise for allowing attribution to commenters without making them create an account?
benkay: you'll see i have some styling to do. i hate styling.
benkay: having written on everything from friendster to livejournal to the well, blogger and yes even wordpress before attempting to roll my own this time through i decided to keep all of my data local and generate blog files from my blog.org file
benkay: sheeeit, mike_c, if someone can't handle comments by email i don't want 'em commenting.
benkay: yeah. i'm thinking about how to do comments.
pankkake: but I've seen implementations of one of my dreams: a comment-by-email
pankkake: the only thing I dislike with static blogs is the comment handling. usually, it's… disqus
pankkake: at least I could self-host it… now a lot of websites throw you facebook in the face
mike_c: stackoverflow tried to use it. i was surprised that didn't work.
pankkake: I liked openid, but it is effectively dead
BingoBoingo: I'm pretty sure just entering nym, any email, and comment should be sufficient. I'll investigate whether or not I need to burn a bunch of PHP when I'm not so drunk.
benkay: I know.
benkay: i was reading some other derpage from him recently as well.
benkay: BingoBoingo: I do. Someday I may.
BingoBoingo: benkay: Well, I dunno how much I trust RSS to propagate, or to have been read by anyone. Thank you for letting me know that I'm not the only person still using the stuff.
mike_c: hey jurov, different topic: last month I unintentionally tested out what we were discussing. and you can not lose more on a sold put than your collateral.
Namworld: I think it says it all on Havelock.
mike_c: i don't see how they could be competitive from the start. they don't have any economies of scale. do they have some magic formula for cheap customer acquisition? i don't see it.
dexX7: it's simple. want a lightweight client? electrum, otherwise i agree with armory
pankkake: I am/was tempted to use Electrum, but it seems that Armory is fixing its slowness
pankkake: I'm not sure the fiat equivalent have enough volume, how is this one going to do?
BingoBoingo: ThickAsThieves: Well, blockchains have limits on their usefulness. It works in Bitcoin because everyone values having a distributed consensus ledger and enough people have a vested interest to maintain this ledger. I dunno if anyone other than Spotify is particularly interested in spotifies ledger when they would rather store music than an account of the music everyone has.
ThickAsThieves: well, the www i guess
ThickAsThieves: like i said, justthinking out loud
ThickAsThieves: i dunno
BingoBoingo: ThickAsThieves: Well most DRM is pki based anyway. I don't see what adding a blockchain to it might do other than maybe allow rights transfers. I don't think many people interested in DRM though are people interested in making rights transfers easier though.
ThickAsThieves: i suppose people would just share their keys
ThickAsThieves: i havent put much thought into it otherwise
ThickAsThieves: i was half-joking half wondering honestly
Duffer1: i don't i'll ever see the day when i'd feel comfortable having my real name as a user nick
ThickAsThieves: i'd prefer to have my identity out there if it were safe
Duffer1: oh i know man
ThickAsThieves: if i was gonna run, it woulda happened long ago
Duffer1: that i should go get some sleep and stop trying to fuck with you
ThickAsThieves: because i like the saying
ArsKisS: i kinda see why, but it still makes me laugh
jurov: i know but this one really got me
jurov: http://i.imgur.com/VIhkDAr.gif lmao bitcoinity supposedly shown this on $1000
mircea_popescu: i always thought of that as more of a "free association" exercise.
Duffer1: MP i believe the site you're looking for is 4chan
ozbot: I Lick My Cat | My Strange Addiction - YouTube
deadweasel: i speak noop
benkay`: hey nanotube (and anyone else who's interested): does the otc application have an API for looking up key ids or should I resign myself to parsing http://bitcoin-otc.com/viewratings.php?
benkay`: plus, i think that i'd have to have the signature already imported for that to work jurov. i'm interested in sigs whose keys i've never seen before.
benkay`: i'd be happy with the keyID for what it's worth
jurov: and i also pointed out it won't be easy at all to get $38m out of exchange
jurov: i suspect it could easily be a buying one
mjr_: jurov: I was just hanging out with Oz
mjr_: but i have made a lot of progress on the system
mjr_: yeah, i haven't updated much of anything
jurov: i wish i could announce... but am waiting on havelock panamanians
