mod6: yah smickles been afk for
a minute
DeadWeasel: nice though, might be
a good learning tool
burnside: AWS is only
a good deal if you need to compute on and off (can shutdown machine when not in use) or if you need to be able to massively scale quickly.
pigeons: and its only free for
a year by the way
kakobrekla: anywho i dont need to do any of that anymore i guess
a part of that is btcs fault.
kakobrekla: well not
a regular job, i was never employed
kakobrekla: all sorts of stuff, i was doing some 3d photography when i was 18 then i was freelancing for
a while, then building solar power plants for over
a year and lots of stuff in between
Bowjob: my bitcoin holdings arent that worth
a fortune yet
Bowjob: eh, i can live without
a job for
a few years.. it just gets boring watching bitcoins grow
kakobrekla: so you should be trying not to have
a job.
kakobrekla: to me, having
a job means you arent smart enough to live without having
a job
kakobrekla: 20:13.28 ( Bowjob ) im gonna need
a job soon
assbot: Quest for vision is
a great blessing.

a while

gribble: Error: "tocler" is not

Bowjob: buying unusuals with metal is like buying
a ferrarri with pennies. it clogs you inventory space.
Bowjob: rather you use earbuds to purchase hats and keys and
a bunny head and
a beret to purchase unusuals
Bowjob: it's
a rare scenario where peole use metal to buy hats.
Bowjob: I take
a few issues with the way he described TF2 economy though.
Bowjob: and before I was
a bitcoiner, I first had my hand trading hats... hats!
BitHub: there was
a bunch of us in #bitcoin working it out :) not sure of exact figures but it was pretty close to that
BitHub: to make 1btc
a day off the divs
mircea_popescu: actually let's see. if they mine about 15 blocks
a day consistently that's
mircea_popescu: basically, they're very convolutedly going about implementing
a mpex contract.
BitHub: 4. About the portion concerns, we believe that the evaluation of (
A+B) on IPO is fair to ASICMINER purchasers, because it's already much lower than most other startups seeking for angel investments. The investor protection clauses are also
a pro. Of course, most angels/VCs will get more information and control, but we could still debate whether this aspect can neutralize the advantages
BitHub: 3. The rest shares, when not sold, are kept and owned by Bitfountain. When they are sold, all income will be invested in our partner ship (
A+B). This is what the non-dilution privilege of ASICMINER share means. They may be sold someday when the price is right and we need really big investment costs. But now the price is not fully appreciated in our point of view and the re-investment
BitHub: re-investment costs. This is why we stated that ASICMINER shareholders are always in
a better position than any device buyers when the initial biggest risk disappeared.
BitHub: 1. One ASICMINER (
A) share is one privileged share of our partnership (
A+B) compared to Bitfountain (B) shares controlled by us founders.
BitHub: and are holding alot themselves to sell later to raise money, plus
a whole bunch of other things, friedcat just did
a upgrade recently
thestringpuller: smickles: hey gimme
a pong when you're back from vacation ;)
BitHub: i would like to earn back 1btc
a day
kakobrekla: inaba delivery confidence speaks: 100 BTC that BFL will deliver ASICs. I only put the 2013 timeframe on there so there's
a definitive endpoint to the bet, even though it will be over long before then.
burnside: I have
a basic LAMP ready client you can download and pull apart, it's linked as
a .zip on that page.
burnside: you could go 3-legged and not have to do
a central db/management
Namworld: Still, seems preferable to handle
a transfer and let each coinbr user decide what they want to do with theirs.
Namworld: But we don't have money aside for that either. Would take
a good chunk.
Namworld: I'm not broke personally, but making
a buyback at ~0.003 for all circulating shares, I can't do that right now.
jurov: can't you just hire
a $10 writer from freelancer to make
a statement... oh you're broke i forgot
Namworld:
A simple signature from the gpg key used for MPEx will suffice.
Namworld: MPEx is supposed to give us
a list of key with the amount of shares tied to it on delisting.
Namworld: I'll be accepting
a signature from the same gpg key MPEx will give us.
BitHub: i'm starting to think its better to not have your bitcoin company based where you live, better off having it in
a tax haven sort of place or somewhere
a bit protected from western laws. The biggest liability
a bitcoin business gives you is the ability for the gov to fuck you for not doing your taxes properly
BitHub: D3 we will probably upgrade from
a LLP to
a LLC if we do
a offshore company.
Namworld: The current servers are monthly rent and
a bit empty
BitHub: than
a LLC is the next best thing
BitHub: i am currently in
a partnership
Diablo-D3: BitHub: you do realize, though, an LLP is
a partnership, right?
gribble: (ticker [--bid|--ask|--last|--high|--low|--avg] [--currency XXX]) -- Return pretty-printed mtgox ticker. If one of the result options is given, returns only that numeric result (useful for nesting in calculations). If '--currency XXX' option is given, returns ticker for that three-letter currency code. It is up to you to make sure that the three letter code you enter is
a valid currency (1 more message)
Namworld: Within
a year it should turn quite profitable.
BitHub: its like
a company but not so official and you get alot of benefits
Namworld: yeah, well we're
a bit short on funds.
BitHub: i think
a LLP is better than
a LLC
BitHub: <mircea_popescu> ya but as in all endeavours, you're best off interacting with
a professional. - good advice
mircea_popescu: it's like
a hundred or w/e. you don't need
a lawyer like on retainer in any case
mircea_popescu: if the cost of registering
a llc is an issue then you shouldn't make one
mircea_popescu: ya but as in all endeavours, you're best off interacting with
a professional.
Diablo-D3: I wouldnt need
a lawyer to register an llc, would I?
Namworld: I want to try to get puts higher at the top... looks like we're still
a bit far from the top
Namworld: Yeah, I sold two blocks of 1000 puts at
a loss. I think I'll stop there.
mircea_popescu: Lyspooner right. let me see here, he's
a gimp and she's
a trophy
Lyspooner: the rumor is that she wanted to give him
a valentine's day surprise, and being
a south african, he mistook her for an intruder and shot her face off
Lyspooner: and it looks like he doesn't have
a leg to stand on
maximian: there's
a theory floating around that the recent runup may have had something to do with Reddit insiders doing
a little speculating before todays announcement.
mjr_: you could make
a mechanical computer i suppose but would be quite slow
mjr_: could you make
a gold computer?
mjr_: if all you have is btc and your 24 hours
a day
mircea_popescu: well, me, prolly they will cause im cool and all. but as
a general rule no
