mircea_popescu: smickles you know, it was driving the romanians insane cause romanian incomes are really small and i was making
a ton with the blog
smickles: clearly, he made his monies as
a blogger
smickles: what is that 2weiX going on about anyway? 5% cut? 10% cut? do they not realize you essentiall have
a 95% cut?
smickles: lol, wtf is
a 'satoshisecond'?
smickles: "The free-float method is seen as
a better way of calculating market capitalization because it provides
a more accurate reflection of market movements."
smickles: mircea_popescu: unless, of course, you have made
a statemtent that you don't intend to ever sell some of that available 50% (the remaining 45% iirc)
smickles: yeah, taking
a strict definition, only 50% of shares are 'locked in'
chippewa: I'm Rodrigo with
a new nick name
smickles: but considering that you own (and presumably won't sell) ~95% of shares, those 95% wouldn't be considered for
a lot of market cap valuation purposes
mircea_popescu: if i sell you one acre out of
a 10 acre plot of land would you propose the value of the plot is based on your acre ?
jcpham: it was
a slip, i swear ;p
thestringpuller: its inspired from
a blogpost you wrote on bitinstant during the brazil conference.
evoorhees: thestringpuller: is this
a good suprise or bad suprise?
Ukto: and changes the text box background color to
a light red of the price, or share amount field thats in the wrong
Ukto: i think I will also put
a light red background color in the text box
EskimoBob: is there
a "round" or some crap like that for formatting the final number?
EskimoBob: OK, i see, this is
a display problem
Ukto: since people type decimal format into
a price box
EskimoBob: Ukto: wht do you even fuck around with decimals? Not
a good idea in any financial system
EskimoBob: jurov: i have
a feeling, you have never ever participated in any real life IPO and you are way outside of your area of competence. :)
Ukto: for
a year and
a half
jurov: for example users can resell the promotional MPBPT shares and thus make us sell less... but I don't believe it will be significant part nor give
a shit about that.
EskimoBob: this is
a simple fix to broken IPO market.
mircea_popescu: The top 5 percent of households in Washington, D.C., made more than $500,000 on average last year, while the bottom 20 percent earned less than $9,500 -
a ratio of 54 to 1.
Ukto: I woudl do OHLC & Candles... but as I said before.. its
a 24hr market... seems that open/close is pointless data
Ukto: any use for
a polar chart... mebbe
a nifty pie?
Ukto: until he decides to go on
a drive bomb run
Ukto: though
a 2~4% gain, with the risk of that nasty looking possible-pirate month scares alot of ppl it seems
Ukto: well, the bonds have
a reasonably good history
mircea_popescu: kind of
a hard sell for btc veterans. i imagine it must be attractive to new ppl.
Ukto: pigeons: did you see the new depth graph? kinda crappy, but not bad for
a first start
Ukto: anyone with
a BF account happen to be awake?
mircea_popescu: i thought it was moar like, 1. you beat up on naked girls ; 2. you do magics with money ; 3. you're pretty fucking scary ; 4. you have the biggest beard i ever saw outside of like,
a deceased patriarch
smickles: i'm going to go have
a smoke instead of continuing this list
thestringpuller: most bank apps are web based and connect to
a webpage based ap
thestringpuller: but i feel you it is
a pain not having
a place to store the private key
thestringpuller: also it's nearly impossible for
a rogue app to read from memory
mod6: So... I'd like to put something in place thats non-native in
a way I guess. Another layer to the onion so to speak.
iz: yeah, i took
a quick look and it seems like the android DRM is about playback restriction and doesn't really have
a pub/priv key that is used
mod6: iz: hm, I really wish! if they do, I'm missing it. I'm not super well versed in Android though,
a lot of stuff is new to me here.
mod6: iz: so in the mean time, I have
a AES256 class that I wrote that will utilize AES and enc/dec the key... at least that way, its protected by the symmetric key
iz: encrypt it w/
a password
mod6: iz: yeah, i know, but im trying to come up with
a clever way to store the users private key incase the device is stolen or hacked, you don't want to lose thatkey.
thestringpuller: iz: so for things that are "private" it stores them locally in
a weird fucked up way
iz: you shouldn't be storing priv keys on
a pgp (or gpg) keystore
mod6: i had to get the public key packet, secret key packet... extract the private key from the secrete key spec then create
a x509 cert and construct that with the pub and priv keys.
thestringpuller: I assume pgp will be similar since the android keystore is
a little weird
mod6: lol, i just saw
a picture of
a kowala eating
a guys face
mod6: Right now i have
a nuts-o day job, thats more like an everyhour job. I am looking forward to making 2013 the year I can leave that behind :D
mod6: I can work out something in the form of small btc payments on
a per-diem basis or something...
thestringpuller: I'm
a Java EE developer and spent
a few years doing Android Dev
mod6: If you're really serious, I do have quite
a bunch to do. It sounds like you know what's up.
mod6: So in the future, I really hope to get to revise
a lot of stuff that I've already learned on the alpha project... but its sort of too late to turn around.
thestringpuller: like for instance I was reading in JSON from
a server that had data on it
mircea_popescu:
a magazine is one of those pointless things whores employed by rich men fill their time with.
mod6: well, i started
a #BitOTTer channel for technical discussions.... but basically how this works is it doesn't persist anything at this time
mircea_popescu: <thestringpuller> lol Bitcoin magazine charges 100 bucks for
a 12 issue subscription? <<< yes, they will deliver the 12th issue in 2044
thestringpuller: lol Bitcoin magazine charges 100 bucks for
a 12 issue subscription?
dub: I was looking at some property in
a 100-year flood plain the other day, supposedly expected to flood every 3-5 years
EskimoBob: Namjies: James told me he sent out (or promised to send)
a updated list and assured me that my name is on the list
Bugpowder: Does Black-Scholes have
a ponzi correction term?
mircea_popescu: Bugpowder shoulda not been in
a market where self-aggrandizing idiots put 5% of the m3 into ponzis
Bugpowder: shoulda used
a Lorentzian instead of
a Gaussian price movement model...
jcpham: like
a survival fire starter
jcpham: i have not started
a fire with my firesteel yet
mircea_popescu: "The Real Skin All-American Whopper measures 7 inches with an insertable length of 5.5 inches, 1.25-1.5 inches in width and
a circumference of 4.5-5 inches, and is realistically sculpted for the size, feel, and pleasure of the real thing."
thestringpuller: no one believes in EskimoBobs dream of creating
a BTC-based art studio?
mircea_popescu: Buy our FireSteels and you'll never worry about being able to start
a fire.
