a whole in many private torrent trackers
boolcrap:
a rabbi
a priest and little boy are sitting at
a table, the little boy is kind of bent over the table getting something
mircea_popescu:
a guy in the required sunglasses joins the 4th grade to help with their political educaiton
deadweasel: we're certainly trying over here, only we've managed to learn in
a poorly to not-at-all fashion. and we're great at it.
mircea_popescu: and well... you can't have
a society of nothing but that.
mircea_popescu: they're there to force people to also do some work in
a day. at the very least to pay for the credits.
Asa9: sir - I wish you were around when I was
a teen. I would have had my shit together way before now.
ozbot: Why Dogecoin is
a scam, why the people pushing it are assholes, why Business Insider is
a contemptib
jborkl: I noticed almost 0 of the advertising slots have been filled for about
a month, I read about vaporware every few days
jborkl: I thought Activemining was resolved as
a fat guy in the trunk of
a 67 skylark 6 months ago
mircea_popescu: why the fuck are all these people without
a clue involved in stuff.
mircea_popescu: "We are being blocked, even in
a startup the owners can move their ownership to another investor, we can't even do that."
topace: correct i am no longer
a majority stakeholder in havelock (the exchange)
pankkake: seems to be
a bit stronger than the others
mircea_popescu: it's clearly
a fraudulent construct and will be pierced by any court, but hey.
pankkake: and the first one was sold out very quick, it traded much higher for
a short time, like the older havelock IPOs
deadweasel: glad you took them to task. that is
a very scammy venture judging by their post.
mircea_popescu: deadweasel maybe they can laungh
a poll so that 2013 comes before 2011 in their personal history.
deadweasel: Hey, they launched
a poll to confirm their beliefs about their upcoming growth spurt... what other evidence do you need?
mircea_popescu: more abstractly : for things to be unique it's not enough for them to be different, it's also required for that difference to be meaningful in some sort of actual system. it's not enough that
a system may exist in which the difference may be meaningful. it has to be actually meaningful in an actual system.
pankkake: and I think CBTC is the least worst havelock security :) (I sold mine as soon as I could make
a profit, because fuck havelock, but anyways)
herbijudlestoids: i might try to pop in occasionally for
a rematch against bingoboingo
mircea_popescu: dun worry too much, as exciting as it may seem and as fleeting it may appear for that reason, bitcoin will still be here in
a decade, and so will this chan.
herbijudlestoids: aside from reading bash and trilema, any advice for someone who has to take
a gap?
herbijudlestoids: i been thinking tonight, i might have to force myself to not come in here for
a while. in
a week or so big things coming and i need to make sure all my focus on it. this place is just too distracting :P ...hopefully when i come back ill be rich.
mircea_popescu: this is actually not
a bad idea. kakobrekla would it be hard for !b to also pass the link to the first line ?
Jere_Jones: mircea_popescu Feature request for bash.bitcoin-assets.com:
A link to the part in the relevant part at log.bitcoin-assets.com so that context is easier to find.
mircea_popescu: boolcrap it's
a bot. it does various useful things like
Apocalyptic: people seem to use it more as
a wallet than an exchange though
Vexual: do you have
a notebook?
herbijudlestoids: just
a bit of fun, i originally wanted to get some and sell them on -otc to establish WoT, but nobody wanted to buy the small amount i initially had and someone (i think benkay) mentioned sturles to me anyway as someone who helps newbies to get rated on WoT...so not really necessary for much anymore
herbijudlestoids: i got the ASICs from
a friend who didnt want them anymore, i was using them to mine
a small amount of BTC
a while ago but then the USB hub died and were just sitting around on my desk until ATC
herbijudlestoids: iam, but they dont hold any implicit value to me and it doesnt cost more than 0.00000001 ATC to ping
a bid and set the last price ;)
Vexual: yeah m,y head say buy
a fuckload at 125
herbijudlestoids: if you buy at market you get them now, if you put in
a bid you gotta wait for someone to sell into the bid
herbijudlestoids: well you can either buy ATC at market for 499s or put
a bid in above 300s
Vexual: bingoboingos' trades i meant, not
a dial in board
Vexual: i wasn't going to offer the answer without
a 1 atc prize
Vexual:
a decree or
a passing fancy?
ozbot: How
a Web Design Goes Straight to Hell - The Oatmeal
ozbot: M.I.
A. - "Bad Girls" (Official Video) - YouTube
Vexual: but id put it on
a post and get out of the snow
herbijudlestoids: KRS-One: someone should go stand there with
a sign saying "ONLY DUMBASSES PUT ALL THEIR EGGS IN ONE BASKET"
Vexual: even his tie looks like
a police car
MisterE: well I guess hosting
a site for drug dealing doesn't make you
a thief
Bugpowder: dunno. I just don't want to send
a deposit and have it go to limbo
Bugpowder: if only I had gotten this to work
a few months ago
gribble: Error: 'sexysosexy' is not
a valid integer.
herbijudlestoids: ok, well Luke-Jr i pantspledge to you that i will look unto the lambda business and try to make
a useful patch, so that you dont feel like all of us people in the community are cunts who never contrib (altho iv never used eloipool)
benkay: engineering can never be
a copy/paste affair.
herbijudlestoids: Luke-Jr: ok i just took that example from the altcoind code where they have
a constant COIN = 100000000 and constant CENT = 10000000
benkay: learning the lambda business is
a good idea anyways herbijudlestoids
herbijudlestoids: Luke-Jr: ill make you
a deal, if you think my patch is correct for all cases where its int, then i will spend some time on the weekend and try to understand the lambda business
herbijudlestoids: Luke-Jr: no i understand the basics of lambda, what i was asking is why use it in this case. i emailed you
a thing, if its wrong pls feel free to reply and let me know
Luke-Jr: except abc might be some.object.property instead of just
a word
Luke-Jr: herbijudlestoids: def abc(
a, b): return
a + b
Luke-Jr: herbijudlestoids: abc = lambda(
a, b):
a + b
mircea_popescu: because if there's
a config and then down the line this happens again in some other point people will curse.
Luke-Jr: and complex altcoins could always define
a full function in the config if they had to :p
Luke-Jr: I'd think
a simple config var with
a lambda type would work
Luke-Jr: herbijudlestoids:
a patch would be handy
Bunnyh: that could be made configurable but then users would have to input the reward algorithm, which might be
a bit convoluted with some coins
herbijudlestoids: Luke-Jr: can we help with
a patch? or its just
a discrepancy for altcoins?
herbijudlestoids: Luke-Jr: give us
a clue and we might be keen to contribute
a patch? ;)
Bunnyh: Luke-Jr: can you think of any reason why eloipool would suddenly generate
a 50 coin block reward instead of the actual amount that should be generated?
Bunnyh: it was just
a continuous run and those 50 ATC blocks happened randomly, spaced with dozens of normal blocks
agorecki: What's the reward for mining
a block in terms of fees? It's .2 bitcoin, isn't it?
MisterE: there's
a thousand pundits waiting to say the whole thing is b0rked
Bunnyh: they were just miners pointed to
a pool that was pointed to altcoind
Bunnyh: Vexual: sure, i just thought i'd point those asics to
a new coin for
a night, it's not like that "too much hashpower" really makes much btc nowadays
MisterE: too much hashpower is
a good problem to have
