a persistent exposure to the core Bitcoin community?
tg2: Cause you could actually mine an x11 coin on
a phone cpu/gpu without melting it and get good hashes
tg2: Would be nice on
a rogue app with
a lot of install base
BingoBoingo:
A clever malware writer could start
a phone card bsns based on hijacked phones
Mats_cd03:
a clever malware writer would optimize certain scamcoins for mining based on the presence of
a gpu
punkman: Mats_cd03: the trick would be that only
a phone can mine the coin reasonably fast, so you can use your phone botnet to make some easy money
Mats_cd03: some smartphones have
a surprising amount of horsepower
BingoBoingo: punkman: Well, there was one coin mined and then difficulty adjusted such that
a second coin would be impossibru

a higher marketcap than litecoin?

a very good morning.
BingoBoingo: What serious Bitcoin firm would want or need
a bank account
ozbot: Americans are skipping the bank: Reconsider that career as
a bank teller.
punkman1: "However, while MtGox claimed to have lost 850,000 bitcoins due to malleability attacks, we merely observed
a total of 302,000 bitcoins ever being involved in malleability attacks. Of these, only 1,811 bitcoins were in attacks before MtGox stopped users from withdrawing bitcoins. Even more, 78.64% of these attacks were ineffective."
BingoBoingo: moiety: Well they were one of the earliest crypto-concerns I had dealt with back in early 2013. I have
a lot of notes. // Well I threw up in one or both party's residence at least once
BingoBoingo: moiety: I've met both of them, but my knowledge of each is insufficient to make
a judgment on who is likely more truthful
MisterE: benkay: most of the world is OK with
a 20 years age diff
ozbot: Errata Security: We may have witnessed
a NSA "Shotgiant" TAO-like action
BingoBoingo: moiety: Probably
a little bit of each, but I had moved on by then
benkay: mircea_popescu: except in the us where the notion of
a 'wife' in the older than
a decade sense is abhorrent to the youth.
MisterE: there's nothing wrong about being up front about the desire for security when selecting
a mate
mircea_popescu: an earnest hussy looking for
a husband'd seem
a lot more respectable than
a pretentious priss pretending she belongs in tech or government or w/e.

a finishing school for Southern hussies on the hunt for financial security
gribble: Error: "borges" is not
a valid command.

a wholly innovative, verily incisive bit of us-science.
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: It is the coloqualism for
a sleeveless undershirt
nubbins`: the other half being
a pair of pants?
BingoBoingo: They wore basketball shorts and
a wifebeater to lecture unless they had higher university business on
a particular day
mircea_popescu: don't go up and strike
a conversation with the tall woman. why not ? well...
BingoBoingo: I had
a professor like that. Octagenarian stroke survivor.
mircea_popescu: maybe what the real problem is has more to do with lions. as long as we sit put and do nothing,
a lot of pointless, small, provably impotent nothing...
mircea_popescu: his ready answer is that "The distressing possibility that the oldster agreed to be on the committee so that he would have
a venue in which people would listen to him does not occur to the youngster."
mircea_popescu: "This oldster has tenure. He draws the same salary regardless of whether he sits through those interminable boring committee meetings. Why would he agree to do it? Why wouldn't he rather be playing squash, riding
a horse, flying an aircraft, walking his dog, etc.?"
benkay: it'll be great roi, take it from
a stranger
mircea_popescu: not unrelated to "where can i read all about the english language ?" "uh... just pick up
a book ?" "what if it sucks ?" "... what do you want from me!"
chetty: the interview log has
a lot of good links
BingoBoingo: velly: So that you might in
a year know what parts are reliable
mircea_popescu: chetty i guess, if he were specifically
a journalist looking for how to behave in the new, post-fiat world.
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: I really just wanted to take
a picture of the diploma. I spent way too much on it for too little return. Having it in the Dossier at MP intel central at least makes up some of the waste
chetty: the log with the reuters interview would be
a good start
velly: but unfortunately I'm not in
a position to read long IRC chat logs
velly: you're not
a stranger :)
mircea_popescu: velly it may seem preposterous to begin with, but take the word of
a stranger in
a chatroom :
velly: thanks guys, I'll have
a look into this. I have somewhat of
a futures background, but I'd like to make sure I'm well informed before I start on this side of things.
mircea_popescu: velly not really. it's like
a monk's life, you know ? no way to separate the learning from the toil.
velly: anything more directly informative? I'm not really sure I want to read through this whole log--- even so far there's
a lot of fluff...
BingoBoingo: Was there something earlier about needing an education experienced person to contribute to
a reading list?
