pankkake: http://mining.thegenesisblock.com/a/d1afeb43fa if I'm not mistaken, at 0.01 a share of 32 mhash, it's a loss
mircea_popescu: bejesus, 320 gh/s makes 1 btc a day.
pankkake: I'm pretty sure no one is going to sell it at a good price for you anyway
mircea_popescu: pankkake actually that;'s a pretty nice link.
skinnkavaj: Hey doesn't anyone think ADDICTION on bitfunder is a great buy? The kncminers are arriving, they just posted news. Has anyone done any calculations how much those shares can make in divends lately?
pankkake: anyway, it certainly be a manual of "what not to do" for the next silk roads
Diablo-D3: that isnt even a lot of money when it comes to the government
asciilifeform: didn't say it will be a government official inserting the iron
pankkake: yes, he seems to make it a point of doing everything wrong
dexX7: ThickAsThieves: is there a cutoff date for transfers?
asciilifeform: no need to 'discover' anything when a stoolie is in fact doing the forgeries.
asciilifeform: inevitably some moron succumbs to the temptation of buying false papers, he buys from a stoolie; and game over.
pankkake: > trusting a piece of paper
pankkake: I'm still trying to reverify my bitcoin-central account, they seem to want a new document every day
ThickAsThieves: Just found a couple bitcoins in an old BitStamp account, they won't let me withdraw until I do AML
pankkake: ah well, I thought about it a few days ago
asciilifeform: pankkake: does a spoon come with professional support? believe it or not, it is possible to build an artifact which functions as described, until it is physically destroyed.
pankkake: make it some easy php thing, and it's going to be a lot of failures
asciilifeform: pankkake: more like a spoon. the latter is guaranteed not to stab you in the eye spontaneously, if used as prescribed. by pure physical fact of it being what it is.
pankkake: so, a home email server, for example?
mircea_popescu: the idea is to make objects which depend on no externality. as long as they function, they function securely, and this as a matter of fact rather than convention.
mircea_popescu: and for the other, take lavabit as a convenient example. the theoretical privacy offered by the service depended on a godaddy ssl cert and the owner's resistance to fbi court orders.
pankkake: anyway, we know all that is needed is a name and a logo
mircea_popescu: pankkake a manufacturer of crypto items
mircea_popescu: i plan to make a post tomorrow detailing what the plan is,

kakobrekla: 6% a month, new PIBOR rate
mircea_popescu: i do not think i have seen a more braindamaged piece of software since the days of windows 3.1
mircea_popescu: ThickAsThieves it's a liability anyway, all the scammers paying you five btc or w/e to have the airs of respectability... not so good.
mircea_popescu: well here's to hoping there'll be a bunch of these and that's tyhat.
ThickAsThieves: got to participate in a few days of meetings between Neo and partners, etc
ThickAsThieves: i promise i won't keep it a secret ;)
pankkake: there's a forum I've been on for 10+ years, I think I have been banned for 3 of those years
ThickAsThieves: everyone sucks in a forum
jcpham: rumor is eligius is working on a new forum
ThickAsThieves: <mircea_popescu> and incidentally, how come there's not a half dozen bitcoin busionessmen starting their own retardstalk ? <<<< I was pondering this while on the shitter this morning
pankkake: every time I see a + on labcoin… http://totoz.eu/img/flu12345678
mircea_popescu: and incidentally, how come there's not a half dozen bitcoin busionessmen starting their own retardstalk ?
pankkake: but I get it - there are a lot of myths of money growing on trees
mircea_popescu: People on board burned a sheet to attract the attention of rescuers, starting a fire on board.
mircea_popescu: they started a fire to get people's attention
mircea_popescu: what's the "real story" ? the movie of how some boy in ghana couldn't afford to buy his sweetheart shoes so he hatched a plan to build an internet paper empire ?
pankkake: doesn't matter. even if everything labcoin says is true it is still a scam
LorenzoMoney: is labcoin a scam or what?
mircea_popescu: picostocks thing is such a website masquerading as an exchange.
jcpham: does the asset exchange really make it less or more of a scam
mircea_popescu: jcpham they had the 100th scam ipo and a bunch of others. par for the course.
jcpham: "picostocks is a scam"
mircea_popescu: rather than spend a lot on making the windows impenetrable and the doors unopenable.
VanCleef: is php a scam?
zoinky: i use php and nodejs in pretty much all my projects, im a huge fan of laravel
mircea_popescu: deizel it's a scam since day one, this is well known, not much to see hiar.
deizel: i'd like to know before putting money into a hacked exchange written in cakephp that doesn't even have the securitycomponent enabled on the login screen
pankkake: pretty much. and I've used it a lot - this is why I hate it
mircea_popescu: only worse in ways and areas its userbase doesn't give a shit about.
mircea_popescu: php is intended to make the date show in a html page.
pankkake: I'm with mike_c. PHP is a language for nihilists
ozbot: PHP: a fractal of bad design - fuzzy notepad
mike_c: http://me.veekun.com/blog/2012/04/09/php-a-fractal-of-bad-design/
jcpham: in today's internet a preprocessor scares me
mircea_popescu: maybe not necessarily clear to the average 27 yo muppet who thinks building php code out of stack exchange snippets makes him a businessman,
mircea_popescu: yeah, it's quite clear that the bitcoin foundation is constructed according to a desgned specification, not unique to it.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: interestingly, the 'tor foundation' is a lot like the 'bitcoin foundation' but more so. they have a list of 'authority' nodes that every client prefers by default.
mircea_popescu: but in general, it's a clerical error, you owe them
kleeck: So, if you have time to remove any amount of that do you get charged or does it qualify as a banking error and they eat the cost?
kleeck: He needed to get Burnanke to say it, then we'd see a sell off.
ozbot: Wall St. wonders if Obama wants a selloff
gribble: This order would exceed the size of the order book. You would buy 58928.026 bitcoins, for a total of 763585337.8132 USD and take the price to 1793300000.0000. | Data vintage: 13.7287 seconds
plambert: it just seems like a strange number for the limit
topace: plambert: a lot of exchanges have limits
plambert: why does campbx have a price limit of 1111.11 dollars? They don't let you put in asks for higher than that amount?
mircea_popescu: hey topace Ukyo http://trilema.com/2013/so-whos-running-the-courts-circus/ give a coin would you ?
Rannasha: So someone just lost 7000 BTC in a single bet at 96% on JD
asciilifeform: see, don't misunderstand, nato doesn't formally own all the oceanic fibers, etc. but if someone can cut your fiber and weld it back with a magic box inline, and you can't do squat about it... you don't own said fiber.
asciilifeform: for example, it now is (or soon will be, depending on what document you believe) to sell a car in the u.s. without a remote-disable radio.
mircea_popescu: and that binall guy is a retard.
asciilifeform: my suspicion is that the inquisitor (the fellow who actually ran the show) - and definitely the judge - weren't really prepared for the 'we don't have a backdoor already' statement by L
mircea_popescu: and then in court the judge was confronted with a different request from what was agreed in advance.
asciilifeform: the judge review site is a real gem
mircea_popescu: or pehraps a not wholly digested sense that they are interacting with their enemy
asciilifeform: I imagine there was a precedent where it didn't fly. That, or L and all of his predecessors had uncommonly drunken lawyers.
asciilifeform: might want to ask a real live lawyer about this one
asciilifeform: threatening, yes, but AFAIK this was technically a civil case.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: IANAL, but i don't think you can do that in a civil action
mircea_popescu: send his wife some email about how he had shoplifted or run a red light or w/e
mircea_popescu: for instance a warrant for the search of all cars in new york "to see if there's anything fishi going on" is not general as long as there;s a dept of transportation rule against people being assholes on the road.
mircea_popescu: according to this nutjob a search is not general if it is objectively general as long as there's some sort of theoretical limitation on the generality.
asciilifeform: I do wonder why anybody bothered with the 'lettre du cachet', the wiki crap was the equivalent of a winamp playlist
mircea_popescu: dude this is certainly a novel argument.
mircea_popescu: if abused Contrrary to law, could constitute a general search."
mircea_popescu: "It cannot be that a search warrant is "general" merely because it gives the government a tool that,
asciilifeform: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:NSA_Suite_A_Cryptography
mircea_popescu: actually here's a great idea to troll wikipedia
mircea_popescu: yeah they got a letter of cachet
asciilifeform: btw I find it interesting that the names, brief histories, and approximate purposes of the 'Suite A' ciphers (nsa proprietary) used to be on wikipedia
mircea_popescu: they probably heard the exact same thing a thousand times so far.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: you're probably right that this is a crackpot hypothesis, it presumes competence where, as far as we know, none is left
asciilifeform: if you were the fuhrer of NSA, and your minions have not yet found a pill against rsa/etc., what would you do?
Vexual: its a big job
