williamdunne: Its pretty good, all ties in really well with various meta-db layers
williamdunne: Ah sorry, well it depends. Obviously its a pretty lose spec but I'd probably go for something that has all the basic functionality built on a probably ASP stack, rather than doing anything too fancy with pretty colours everywhere
williamdunne: Well dependent on the business model it could be easy or complex
williamdunne: mircea_popescu: Well either I'd make it so it almost completely handles itself, or let someone else run it after I build it
williamdunne: mircea_popescu: I can do it, but I'm not hugely interested in running it as a business
williamdunne: mircea_popescu: Was the name of an exchange I am working on
williamdunne: Okay, so scoopbot's concurrency now definitely works. Yay.
williamdunne: pete_dushenski: Would you have preferred it had he worded it as your choice is based upon the choices of those superior in your WoT? i.e if BitPay is at the top of my WoT (lol) and they are on newcoin, I'll be on newcoin
williamdunne: Seems like a fair statement, if there is a change everyone agrees on the only issue is those too lazy to update
williamdunne: Pierre_Rochard: Thanks for the link to his personal blog, I'll have a read
williamdunne: pete_dushenski: Oh yes, I remember the article now. What did you object to in it?
williamdunne: pete_dushenski: Don't suppose I could have a link?
williamdunne: Pierre_Rochard: Sure thing, I won't add it then. It doesn't really use any resources in particular to add it but your call
williamdunne: pete_dushenski: Technically I can filter by author, but I know I personally like all of their writing
williamdunne: Awesome, yeah, I've been hoping for more articles. Anyone got any objections to adding the nakamotoinstitute to scoopbot?
williamdunne: Pierre_Rochard: Lottery winning janitor annoyed new lottery ticket didn't win
williamdunne: Yeah, that'd be the easyish way, don't have a blog I can use to test it on atm
williamdunne: Well, I could but it would be more difficult than it is worth, so I'll just wait until a post comes up
williamdunne: Can't test until there is a new post unfortunately
williamdunne: OK, I think ScoopBot should behave himself now
williamdunne: Yeah, but that one guy isn't going to be betting all his money on Just-Dice, collectively there is a lot of value to exploit
williamdunne: lobbes: In terms of bitcoin? no, in terms of potatoes? yes
williamdunne: lobbes: Sure, but it alters things massively. Just-Dice with 7 billion potential customers is better than Just-Dice with 2,000,000 potential
williamdunne: pete_dushenski: Well that depends on what you are doing
williamdunne: But in return you have more potential users of your XYZ business, and more potential to operate profitable businesses that are less-than-possible in the fiat world
☟︎ williamdunne: Because I don't have to talk to everyone using bitcoin at the same time nor put up with their noise (in particular, anyway)
williamdunne: Yep, but seems like a relatively invalid comparison
williamdunne: mircea_popescu: That seems counter-intuitive, I'm not trying to over-value the poor and stupid here.
williamdunne: mircea_popescu: Sorry not entirely sure what you mean
williamdunne: ben_vulpes: Yes, its very useful. But the value of your coins will inflate fast if its just 12 people using it over and over.
williamdunne: ben_vulpes: Of course it matters, its a network. More people = more useful. I don't see how that can be anything but an objective truth.
williamdunne: ben_vulpes: Hypothesis; if we ever get to the point where we are completely filling blocks and fees start going through the roof, either growth will halter or it will fork - and the 1mb version will be virtually barren
williamdunne: The blocksize is a limiting factor of its usage, 21m doesn't thanks to 8 decimal places
williamdunne: It wouldn't be bitcoin of today but it would still be bitcoin
williamdunne: trinque: Bitcoin currently worth x potatoes, bitcoin in the future to be worth y potatoes
williamdunne: trinque: Sure, thats what I would advocate too
williamdunne: I definitely agree that too large blocks would break it, but I also think that if bitcoin is to grow we will need bigger blocks
williamdunne: I don't see why you're saying that you'd want the transaction capabilities tied to the number of coins issued though
williamdunne: trinque: I agree, but thats different to a permanent cap
williamdunne: pete_dushenski: Ah so you actually want it permanently at 1mb or lower?
williamdunne: pete_dushenski: From what I can tell the objection you all have is that Gavin's suggestion is constant inflation, as opposed to the block-size being anything other than 1mb
williamdunne: mircea_popescu: Complete rewrite, but needs some fixing. Found some bugs
williamdunne: Yeah 15 seconds for testing purposes, I'll change that on next restart
williamdunne: But I think he had it loaded up before he started because I stopped when you released :/
williamdunne: Had to make him multi-threaded to get the IRC library work -.-
williamdunne: Generally natural escalation seems like a better idea
williamdunne: Easiest way to get a girl naked is to stick her in front of a camera, no?
williamdunne: chetty: Sounds like she was expecting to be photographed
williamdunne: Its definitely 'iffy', but people are particularly sensitive about their sensitives
williamdunne: If I didn't go there for a prostate exam, yeah I'd guess so
williamdunne: mircea_popescu: Yeah I'd say that probably counts as some form as rape. In the same way that stealing a handbag from inside a locked house is burglary
williamdunne: mircea_popescu: I can understand that position, but equally someone walking home, being dragged into a hedge and raped is certainly, most definitely rape - but I don't know that backstory of what you're talking about here
williamdunne: I can understand being upset at being raped as-well, assuming it wasn't one of the new-fangled versions of "rape"
williamdunne: lobbes: Hope for the best - looks like it should be working. On the first parse manages to pull his articles
williamdunne: Perfect, just found a bug I will need to fix which will take about the same
williamdunne: Ok, ScoopBot should now be working, won't know until someone makes a new post though
williamdunne: Well, I don't know where to find it, happy to just use the old list though
williamdunne: Okay, what blogs would you guys like to see in scoop? Currently thinking Contravex, Qntra, Trilema, btcalpha. Probably missing a few.
williamdunne: Would it be possible to give scoop some rep so he can !up himself?
williamdunne: mircea_popescu: Would you mind sharing it with me?
williamdunne: ;;later tell mircea_popescu do you know how long each encryption/decryption takes on MPEX for submitted orders?
williamdunne: ascii_lander: There cannot be infinite escalation, and I would bet on the police being on the losing end. Shoot first warrants would end up with the neighbours making potshots at the police
williamdunne: mircea_popescu: The men bursting through doors are men like any other, if they think they will be met with a chestful of lead they are going to want a little more compensation for doing their job..
williamdunne: ben_vulpes: Alternatively people need to start shooting so that its too risky for them to continue running into houses
