mircea_popescu:
i don't like the stench of socialism wafting from that "dictates of basic"
DeaDTerra: oaky yea,
I guess what
I mean is more ambition, some kind of drive to perform and do well, to do something good.
DeaDTerra: Maybe
I should say ambition instead
mircea_popescu: well yea. greed
i suppose would be the vice of excessive appetite
EskimoBob:
I used to work in finance for long time. Got bored and left. Never looked back
DeaDTerra: your not jewish?
I thought you were xD
mircea_popescu: and
i don't think there's something wrong with banking.
i think the problem is us banks aren't doing any banking.
mircea_popescu: well
i don't run a bank nor am
i jewish, but
i'm a finance type.
mircea_popescu:
i don't see how it can be avoided. us banks currently have no legitimate way to turn a profit.
mircea_popescu: so 80 in 10 minutes. >100 minutes, bout couple hours.
i win :D
DeaDTerra:
I would rather support Bitcoin as a whole and not only the IRC channels

I saw some kind of charity thing for convincing companies to accept Bitcoin
usagi:
I'm currently supporting development of bitcoind, you could donate to me :p
DeaDTerra: hm
I was thinking of streaming some gameing on Saturday, and
I was thinking of maybe doing some charity event. Is there any good BTC charities you can donate to?
smickles: and, afaik, you haven't messed w/that since
i wrote it
smickles: the parts of it
i use most often only need the market depth data
smickles: yeah,
i like all the new data, but
i still haven't updated the relavent parts of my 'opteron' program
copumpkin: mircea_popescu: at least
I didn't get screwed too badly :)
smickles:
i'm proud that
I wrote it as a one-liner :D

mircea_popescu: a flatline the next.
I covered most of the deficit from the hack on the
mircea_popescu: Speaking of that, Zhou
I wanted your thoughts on the financial situation.
mircea_popescu: it does reject the 2nd. what
i meant was ppl just save the pgp'd stat and just keep piping that. arguably more comfortable.
smickles: and if
i double send an idendical stat to mpex, from what
i remember, it rejects the second
mircea_popescu: that's what
i said, afaik pretty much the only place that isn't.
smickles: iirc,
i've send duplicate STATs to mpex
smickles: because
i'm tired, and wrong,
i guess
smickles: if they are just trying to f with you,
i don't see why it being encrypted would matter
mircea_popescu: well as
i said,
i'd consider it for new mpcd if they seem worth doing in nov.
smickles:
i remember the function, but not the label
copumpkin: what will stat tell me?
I ran it and it gave me a bunch of info
smickles: heh, well,
i wrote up that contract based on what splatster wanted to make
mircea_popescu: dub hey,
i made it long enough for bet to come live :D
mircea_popescu:
i dunno, imo for bitcoin nonvoting divcarrying equity is way better than the other way around.
smickles:
i kinda want s2 to issue a bond
smickles:
i'm not going to work on improving my algo on that stuffs until
i get smex done
smickles: yeah,
i suppose
i assume put-call pairity or w/e
mircea_popescu: smickles while it's true that 0.9x is dim,
i don't think 0.9x is a requirement. pretty much 2-3 strikes away from atm is dim afaic.
smickles: mircea_popescu:
i'd like that, right now you don't offer a deep in the money put
mircea_popescu:
i was considering getting maybe up to 30 strikes next month. esp if we keep climbing or at least hold
smickles: mircea_popescu:
i ignore your bot in my calculation
mircea_popescu: but anyway,
i can only change symbols on month ends and if you recall back on july 28 it didn't look so sure we'd hit 13. it was more like 9.x
mircea_popescu:
i can't use my own bot to decide what the market says now can
i.
dub:
I'm dolly parton next to taht
smickles: mircea_popescu: well,
i think that the P200T delta is fair, but the fact that it's not -0.999 or lower would seem to imply market demand for options striking higher
copumpkin:
I know you're calculating the required amount to show me that message
mircea_popescu:
i can change them any time so it's not such a big deal either way
i don't think.
mircea_popescu: seems a tad confusing.
i dunno, maybe
i made a bad choice but it seemed to me more comfortable / intuitive esp for beginners.
sgornick_: Well,
I mean does my holdings of T become holdings of N on the last Friday of the month?
mircea_popescu: sgornick_ in general the symbols stay the same. due to the explosion of btc
i retired the halfdollar symbols and added 11 through 20 dollars instead.
i have the ability to do this as needed.
smickles: anyway, what
i meant is that
i read about using computation time sidechanel attacks in relation to cracking some crypto
