mircea_popescu: anyway, from reviewing the summaries of ~15mb of public and private conversations re this bug i'm sort-of contented that people have mostly got it,
TomServo: I think things would be rather loose in that case.
dub: yea like I said libertarian
jurov: Reminder - I'm still processing S.MPOE claims for helpful MPEx users
TomServo: Well, that's something I guess.
jcpham: I AM GETTING ANEW PUPPY
deadweasel: i like the way you horse it
jborkl: I was referring to him eating out horses
deadweasel: i'm trying though.
mircea_popescu: and for the record, i'm adding safeties to not have stale cache again. this one managed to get away!
mircea_popescu: ThickAsThieves i'm not sure there's a better source of all soviet woes in englush than stoljenitsn
smickles: all of the sudden there is an issue with the underlying toolkit i'm using
mircea_popescu: jurov oh i see the problem. the cache's sick.
mircea_popescu: jurov i just went through s.dice, failed to see a difference ?
ThickAsThieves: i saw that one dw
ThickAsThieves: mp, is there anywhere i can read about this russian intellgence as a burden stuff?
dub: ah nm, I think he's arguing against someone who thought the increasing BTC/USD was a good reason to buy AM at these prices
mircea_popescu: dub i don't see why it would be related.
dub: I know mrb isnt an idiot, so can someone explain to me why AMs costs go up if BTC/USD does?
ThickAsThieves: i, like most of here us probly, seek out control of our environment
ThickAsThieves: and i had to kind of find a zen place to balance it all
ThickAsThieves: i'm no Einstein, but I al constantly disappointed in people
ThickAsThieves: one theory i have is intelligence is a burden
ThickAsThieves: and if i were a psychiatrist i'm sure i'd be able to figure out why
ThickAsThieves: i guess you just seem extra soapboxy lately
mircea_popescu: i wrote a piece long ago, in romanian,
mircea_popescu: understand, i'm not saying there's anything wrong with the "what keeps me out of pain is right" approach in general.
ThickAsThieves: i'm gonna be careful cuz i'm, not quite the level of philospher/anthropologist you are
ThickAsThieves: i think human nature includes wanting everyone to be more like what you want
ThickAsThieves: only oneself I guess
ThickAsThieves: mp your article is kinda depressing. i think you might underestimate how many people feel like they are the only ones that see The Right Way, and separately that you could just as easily not be Right at all (life is tricky that way). You seem to care (be bothered by) so much about people that you feel are worth so little.
mircea_popescu: actually i got confused, i meant avalon.
kakobrekla: i did go about half way yea
mircea_popescu: i thought it was coming together yest. my bad.
smickles: but i do like the idea
smickles: I haven't put thought into how that would work yet
smickles: mircea_popescu: i'm testing my sales system now, since i've decided to release what I have now as a 'beta' at half price.
mircea_popescu: i know there's something wrong with your logic but unsure what exactly
mircea_popescu: i had no idea.
kakobrekla: i think
wh1t3r4bb1t: I will zig zag around the world proving that you do not need anything but bitcoin to survive.
BingoBongo: I'm afraid your best bet is to spin around in a circle... I'm afarid the price to drag my Saturn down there is a bit too steep...
wh1t3r4bb1t: Send me around the world on bitcoins only so I can document it and make a movie
kakobrekla: i am?
grubles: i feel like your nick should be bingoboingo
mircea_popescu: and also i'm having clam chowder soon
kakobrekla: i see.
kakobrekla: i couldnt find the button
BingoBongo: What they ship I don't know
BingoBongo: I think BFL might ship something, but probably miss the target
Anduck: i mean
BitHub: i liked how he rigged the recent election
kakobrekla: do i need to short eurusd?
mircea_popescu: i confess to having little clue.
BingoBongo: The problem isn't faster the problem is scalability. SatoshiDice for all I defended it against, with BDB's locking bahavior killed BDB as a bitcoin dependency
mircea_popescu: tho i think code conservatism may be more valuable. rather use something muchly used than something faster, if those are the only two data points.
mircea_popescu: okay... but i mean, it's old and stable, well tested, much deployed
mircea_popescu: i don't grok the hate. what's the big deal ?
mircea_popescu: i wonder how many people noticed that the girl's announcement ( https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=152027.0 ) actually predates the devs' announcement ( https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=152030.0 )
BingoBongo: I'll stick with practicing on established sites that maintain transparency like this http://bitbet.us/bet/302/bitcoin-standardized-protocol-approved-this-summer/
BingoBongo: I can only act so well
BingoBongo: mircea_popescu I've done bankrupt in the legal liquidation sense before. Surprisingly pleasant.
BingoBongo: Maybe I'm reading wrong which wouldn't be the first time, but it seems like a fair way to separate idiots from their coin.
BingoBongo: I've read his critique of Intrade
BingoBongo: I'm just trying to figure out how little reserves a "prediction market" needs to really operate...
BingoBongo: I like brown sugar occasionaly.
BingoBongo: Today in a moment of weakness I was tempted to register on the WOT and start cloning the late Intrade so I could supply idiots with the Bucketshop that they need
BingoBongo: Wow, kakobrekla; I thought I was planning something stupid...
mircea_popescu: i want to drive what where ?!
benkay: i think the system is multistable
mircea_popescu: but i shall endeavour to break that.
grubles: i think?
grubles: there can be alternates but they wont have the bitcoin mafia i mean foundation backing them
grubles: tom green was funny when i was in middle school
mircea_popescu: basically i can't shake this tom green image from my head.
benkay: wild west i tell you
mircea_popescu: mkay i guess i grep the logs.
BitHub: oh i thought it was mircea walking down the street
toffoo: i meant yours
mircea_popescu: i didn't even notice, what's she got ?
mircea_popescu: i guess it must remind them of their parents or something.
mircea_popescu: ya kakotrolka , i'm sure that's what it is.
benkay: i'm out
kakobrekla: I have run and started commodity exchanges. I am currently running one and would like to apply our technology and knowledge to bit coin. There is a decent possibility we may be able to list futures and other derivatives around BTC and LTC. Please whitelist me.
Ukto: [21:21] <ThickAsThieves> i think BFL will ship this month <-- I see your putting your mouth where your money is. ;)
mircea_popescu: i am considering expanding it to work both ways and fully identify trades but there's also performance issues to consider and a whole keboodle.
mircea_popescu: coingenuity i have people paid to pay attention and i have people paid to man the watchtowers for me.
coingenuity: mircea_popescu: as far as i'm concerned, there's nothing of note to read there anyway... just a bunch of bitcoin-tabloid type topics bout nothing :/
coingenuity: mircea_popescu: no idea, i work 20 hour days so i dont really pay attention to forums
benkay: and how does that manifest as a significant pain point? i haven't noticed a significant lag between when people post orders and when the pastebin goes up
benkay: i'm reading your feb 2013 "innards" post
dub: given that they have not reached out to ask upgraders to return fpgas I doubt it
ThickAsThieves: i think BFL will ship this month
ThickAsThieves: doc says i'm fine
ThickAsThieves: i'm no supermodel, but thats mostly cuz i'm on the computer too much
dub: I kicked smoking and most drugs
ThickAsThieves: just stuff i dont need or want
