Bugpowdurr: thestringpuller: I have a MATLAB based mpex bot
ThickAsThieves: mp, i was only joking on that link because while you dont care about the knitting circle, you are indeed looking for press nonetheless right?

mircea_popescu: yeah, specify something i can follow.
ThickAsThieves: i wanna be able to lose money and make moneyt
mircea_popescu: well yes, it does. if i had a better way i'd be doing it.
mircea_popescu: ya, see, this doesn't work as an approach. i mean it's prolly fine in middle school or w/e, but i'm not 14.
mircea_popescu: but i'm pretty darned certain will save everyone a shitton of sweat, blood and tears in five years.
jurov: they have something to bootfstrap from. but for bitcoin best i can find is some google spreadsheet of past difficulty values
mircea_popescu: what'd you want me do ? i can't increase it.
mircea_popescu: i admit the 2.9x is just some number i took out of my ass.
jurov: i mean, buffett can say "2.9x last settlement value" and everyone can easily look up authoritative source
