Ukto: WOOH, I just made $500!
burnside: Ukto, I'm it will. I'm not sure how much, but the assets that don't have asic plans are going to get kind of ugly
Ukto: good enough for me, whre do I invest?
Diablo-D3: kakobreklaa: and remember, I also burned the shares I had in DMC as well
jurov: lmao i already got several times my initial btc investment back...
kakobreklaa: Ukto i thought it would be : "how about 3?"
Diablo-D3: kakobreklaa: I could sell the 240 btc and not have to worry about money for awhile.
Ukto: I simply told him its already in the works
Ukto: my 7yr old son just came to me takling about plant vs zombies. and says "I wanna be a game designer when I grow up. You know what game I wanna make? Plant vs zombies 2"
jurov: kakobreklaa i can re-rate you for the fsa stuff, no problem
Diablo-D3: kakobreklaa: I have about 240 btc in my wallet thus far
Diablo-D3: EskimoBob_afk: because I usually dont take programming jobs
Diablo-D3: kakobreklaa: I dont trust anyone, to be honest
kakobreklaa: fuck i need to scam one or two to lower my rating
Ukto: i hate having to pay $200 to have them do a hard loopback in other countries jsut to test a fiber
Ukto: Diablo-D3: depends on where I think
Ukto: burnside: besides, if its the carrier the cusomer chooses to pay for, I am happy making money on it. ;)
Ukto: Besides, being a firmware issue, I can understand their expectancy the issue being on my side
burnside: I love their free ipv6 tunneling service
Bowjob: No, I mean the profits.
Ukto: I told them "that, or just overnight another older module"
burnside: I was graphing the weighted price per Mh on several of the leading mining assets on GLBSE using it
burnside: I used that same engine for charts on a previous project
burnside: yeah, I love the bitfunder charts
burnside: <jurov> i can write funny summary of happenings between ukto and burnside :D
mircea_popescu: i could do five simultaneous master's degrees on it
jurov: but they came late i think
mircea_popescu: im not that drama worthy am i
mod6: I thought it was gonna be the asics too.
mod6: but yeah, I'll really need the help with some of this stuff if they're serious. I'll let you guys know more when I do :)
mod6: so... im not sure. gotta talk to 'em and see what makes sense. I think they're starting to see that BTC is the way of the future. Imagine all of the old ladies and their iPad's playing slots at home...
mod6: i know huh?
mircea_popescu: i wouldn't mind listing a poker site if it were any good.
mod6: I'll let yall know what's up, I'm certainly gonna need dev help.
mod6: awkorama: well, I guess im gonna be meeting with some of these guys to see if they wanna put their money where their mouth is.
mircea_popescu: i'm just guessing it's a waste of effort to reimplement something that already exists and works.
mircea_popescu: micon is marginally relevant. i mean, he's the site's stuffie. who cares whart he does ?
mod6: i played there a few times when coins were like $3
mod6: haha. i dunno. i liked seals with clubs.
mod6: ya! i told 'em about seals with clubs
mod6: I mean these guys are not IT people or anything, just poker guys who are dying to play online again.
DeadWeasel: Bugpowder: that's what I expect. Fortunately I've realized no gains as I've sold nothing. I only hold BTCs, not assets, I'm here trying to figure out if I want to.
jcpham: i'll make a video for you
imsaguy: jcpham, I'm pretty long ;)
mircea_popescu: imsaguy sure. i don't even think it'll hit 30 tbh.
imsaguy: mircea_popescu, you know as well as I do, that things won't run away forever
Bugpowder: I hope
jurov: (disclosure: I have bet No)
mircea_popescu: i imagine with btc over 20 pretty much everyone turned on everything they could.
mircea_popescu: i had just about zero faith in any of them people producing working asic miners.
mircea_popescu: i must confess, i am pretty blown away.
mircea_popescu: that;s about what i figure.
DeadWeasel: well, they can't prove I own shit.
JohnGalt1337: http://i.imgur.com/36xaw6e.jpg
DeadWeasel: can anybody point me to a guide on how to pay taxes on my BTCs? Do I need to?
mircea_popescu: i win internets.
DeadWeasel: I have no clue.
DeadWeasel: I'll OCR that shit and sell it for 5BTC, of course I'll only sell one before it's a torrent, and we're both screwed.
jurov: i'll write a book "MPEx: The Missing Manual" and sell it for 10BTC. dead trees only.
smickles: I think i can get dooglus to present information tailored to shareholders, rather than just the curious
jurov: i can write funny summary of happenings between ukto and burnside :D
smickles: I'm launching it
mircea_popescu: i would say someone somewhere is hashing on asics
gesell: i really find that site stupid
smickles: DeadWeasel: i think you're wrong, a few people have already said that they'd pay 1 btc per month
jurov: these "technical anal" dudes get paid quite nicely i heard
mircea_popescu: honestly, i think the only way that idea will work is owner-operated
pigeons: i pastebinned the letter i got from the sec, i verified it was from the sec, i know lots of people who talked with the sec and they wanted to know, "how did you get your glbse account?" "who promotes glbse?" etc
gesell: I'll retweet Bugpowder for 0.03btc
Bugpowder: I will tweet for 0.3BTC / tweet
jurov: maaybe somethign short. when i'm in mood
gesell: mircea_popescu: yeah i guess i should understand how sdice works
smickles: jurov: you can be a subscriber, i'm the boss here
jurov: bugpowder, i can throw in another 0.3
Bugpowder: I saw a paste bin thing
mircea_popescu: smickles there were rumours of some actual glbse investigation, i was never able to obtain anything whatsoever
smickles: well, i have a hunch I could produce 1 article per day, if only I had the writers
gesell: i dont know the internals yet but i assume the calculations on winning nubmers depend on some randomness
mircea_popescu: i have no idea what prng is
gesell: the analysis sdice is nice but i'd like to see someone reverse engineer the blockchain to try to determine the PRNG sdice is depending on, then explore potential weaknesses or just confirm there are none. Maybe show where in the history the PRNG changed. but thats more hacker type of analysis
mircea_popescu: i doubt you could get him to go for a scheme like that
gesell: i think you just find the people doing it and pay them a little to do it as a collective. you guide them in how to give enough information publicly but have more privately. for example dougles could put half the detail he does on his analysis of sdice and still provide huge value publicly and the rest privately
gesell: smickles: i'd expect it to cover options, dirivitives, cover some hot topics ("why 21 without huge influx of new users?", with data) and have code to pwn blockchain analysis. I'd pay a BTC a month at the moment
mircea_popescu: gesell i suppose the alternative would be to just invest in a fund, and let the manager worry about daily news
mircea_popescu: i think tbh, most people on mpex are btc addicts, reading it all multiple times a day
mircea_popescu: DeadWeasel i imagine something like a blog would be great.
mircea_popescu: i suppose they might maintain an emergency mail list
mircea_popescu: in general i'll say something here and mpoe-pr will make an announcement on forum
gesell: where do you anounce, on blog (with a certain category i can monitor) or here, or twitter, or?
gesell: no, i wasnt. left the scene for a while until dec last year
DeadWeasel: I don't think bitcoin needs 'aggressive expansion'.
gesell: mircea_popescu: is any part of the process and application for ipos public, posted as news, by you or them? or is it pretty much until it happens. i mean, even knowing when a new company will release ipos there might be a nice way to get an alert
smickles: lol, that image.. the "why did I get this?" link
gesell: by coming into the fold i mean, ipos
gesell: mircea_popescu: do you see any new companies coming into the mpex fold? also i assume you just avoid including all the miner pools, correct?
mircea_popescu: http://i.imgur.com/mXGnpvK.png
thestringpuller: i read in fortune in 2011: we dont know of it is a bubble until it pops
mircea_popescu: smickles well it's only dead to the point that i wouldn't currently trust it with a case involving my or mpex's interests
smickles: mircea_popescu: oh, i was confused. I thought that blockchain chart was one of those thinkercharts you used earlier
mircea_popescu: i considered it but passed. my loss.
