BingoBoingo: Landgull: Dude, if you don't have a good answer, you're a lot better off just admitting it and asking for advice. Not just with finance, but in life as a whole. << Wait,
there is now an aeronaut ninjaspamzor???
danielpbarron: ;;later
tell nubbins` could you make a few dozen business cards for me and have
them arrive at my house by
the 20th of
this month? and what would
that cost?
williamdunne: Well I
think
the essence, is if what you're currently doing isn't working, fucking change it
assbot: Logged on 02-06-2014 15:57:38; nubbins`: ;;sell 1.0 "OFFICIAL #bitcoin-assets

to nubbins`
menahem: debating if i should add a quote
to it
menahem: what do you guys
think of
this
tee ?
thestringpuller: i'm quitting
the code life soon
to pursue my dream of being a rapper
williamdunne: And more recently Meteor, although
thats not a personal choice (but does have a great package manager)
williamdunne: We had less
than $10,000 in
the bank. We had no legal counsel
to speak of."
williamdunne: "That’s when we received an inquiry from
the SEC. And
then a subpoena demanding a court appearance and all our documents and communications since
the beginning of last year.
williamdunne: "25 days into our experiment, activity on
the site was parabolic. Users were writing
their own algorithmic
traders. On most days, Sand Hill Exchange saw more
trading volume
than
the New York Stock Exchange (circa 1840). Behind
the scenes, we mapped out
technology infrastructure
to decentralize
the exchange."
chetty: williamdunne, it best if you compile yourself from
the source, but its a breeze on ubuntu
williamdunne: They're doing it by issuing smart contracts so
they're not
the issuers
technically, supposedly
williamdunne: Press release says
they were fined $200k, email subject says $20k
williamdunne: For full details on everything
that
transpired please check our blog.
williamdunne: Sand Hill Exchange has always been strongest as a site focused on education and community.
The paper
trading version of our site preserves
these values while providing a safe, fun experience.
williamdunne: We never had any intention of operating in a regulated industry, nor do we have
the resources required
to do so. We reached a settlement agreement with
the SEC and are reverting
to
the uncontroversial free version of Sand Hill Exchange.
williamdunne: We started Sand Hill Exchange as a fun game
to let people bet on startup valuations. It is an enjoyable experience, but when we pushed aggressively
to monetize we received a cease and desist from
the SEC.
williamdunne: mircea_popescu: Lol, yeah. Apparently
they hedge
theirs
though rather
than bear
the risk
mircea_popescu: i actually got it
to run on an old laptop
too, but it was like 2 fps
chetty: for
the record I have gotten it
to run on a laptop, but its very slow
mike_c: mircea_popescu: yeah, i saw
that. still not so easy without a clean box
to get all
those specific versions on
jurov: i'll forward or return
the funds when someone picks up
jurov: diana_coman will
try on windows,
too
jurov: also, my windows/osx dude said he's away
till 12th. so
the position is in fact open
pete_dushenski: the frenchies (lausanne in particular) were coming up with all sorts of creative ad campaigns
to encourage people
to pick up
their fucking
trash
mike_c: mircea_popescu: didn't know
that, i could
try
that
jurov: mircea_popescu:
that's not nvidia drivers, but some library crystalspace depends upon
mike_c: i
tried
to compile windoze version, didn't go so well
assbot: Logged on 01-06-2015 18:37:26; williamdunne: A new study has officially proved
that French are smelly and Dutch, Germans and Scandinavians are
the cleanest ones."
jurov: mike_c: best if you compile yourself
then
mircea_popescu: mike_c i put nvidia drivers in
the binary bundle just in case.
pete_dushenski: doubt anyone will bother
to show up at aantop's gravestone with oranges and braided bread for provda
mike_c: jurov: not
to be an ass since you just
took
the job, but do you have an idea for ballpark on binaries? my ubuntu box has
trouble running eulora due
to gfx card issues.. just wondering if it's days, weeks, or months.
☟︎ pete_dushenski: heh, it's
the one year anniversary of aantop's murder !
ascii_field: 'The exorbitant membership fee, 30 BTC, coupled with
the fact
that
their
twitter account hasn’t been
touched since last June, suggests
that
the exchange is defunct, or at least no longer being actively promoted.' <<
tungsten, it melts in your mouth!
mircea_popescu: davout it's kinda amusing
to see just how butthurt "social media" gets when it
turns out nobody cares what
they
think / nothing
they could do makes any difference.
pete_dushenski: "One reason
to support increasing
the block size: Luke-Jr is against it." << lulz via redditards.
ascii_field: 'Senior officers live in large houses,
travel on
their own planes and oversee whole continents with little direction from Washington.'
pete_dushenski: the same approach
to flatness leads
to failure in
the military.
chetty: love
the char name davout
pete_dushenski: universities as places of higher learning for
the already learned, different story.
pete_dushenski: mats universities as businesses, which is what
they've certainly become with
their 20th century 'mass adoption' approach
to education, couldn't possibly lead
their students
to be anything other
than broke dicks anymore
than apple can with
the kids who buy
their iphonez
jurov: i had
to: ./configure --with-cs-prefix=/path/to/cs --without-mysqlclient --without-sqlite3 --without-postgresql --without-hunspell
mircea_popescu: screww
that im not gonna keep asking. calling everyone
their nick.
mircea_popescu: jurov if you have one precompiuled it
takes all of 10 minutes
pete_dushenski: in
the leadership failure aspect, not
the medical aspect.
mats: the navy doesn't see nearly
the same level of folks going
to medical discharge boards
☟︎ assbot: Logged on 01-06-2015 15:08:46; Landgull: Mmm, echo chambers only matter
to politicians pandering
to votes,
though. Or 50%+1 attacks via democracy, I suppose.
diana_coman: jurov not yet, as I just saw
the post on
trilema, but I will get onto it as soon as possible and I have some experience...
jurov: diana_coman: you managed
to compile
the new ver already?
thestringpuller: i really wish it was practical
to just kill
the redditards
williamdunne: Take it back, about 7 miles
to
the West for Euro welfare
williamdunne: If it was 5 miles
to
the left of its current position
they could massively
tap into European welfare spigots, which is even more hilarious
ben_vulpes: mk well
they're even
tapping into
the local welfare spigot
ben_vulpes: FLYPLYMOUTH has developed a plan
to reopen Plymouth airport, reintroducing aviation services and air passenger services
that is stepped and incrementally profitable at each stage. We believe
that
this objective is deliverable in
two
to
three years and
that by working
together with
the City around a demonstrably credible plan supported by independent feasibility analysis Plymouth will be able
to benefit from new job creation and better
williamdunne: Maybe
they can do more crowdfunding with
the latest Havelock IPO?
williamdunne: Thought
they were derpy so wanted
to discuss it on a public forum
☟︎ ben_vulpes: and what world is
this where scammers
take cash
to build out a model and
then verify it with bureaucrats?
ben_vulpes: that's what it meant in
the context of
the us banking retardation
williamdunne: For reference,
this is what
they're
talking about
Landgull: My guess is, you pay a bureaucrat
to
tell you
that your made up numbers look like his made up numbers.
Landgull: Well,
they wanted 150k for a stress
test.
ben_vulpes: but let's start with
the "how is anyone involved qualified
to derp near expensive-ass capital equipment"
Landgull: I
think
they should
take
the 150k, buy a cessna, and ferry people around as a social enterprise.
ben_vulpes: what
they will do for
their investors?
Landgull: They need
to stop
talking about what
they need and start
talking about what
they will do for
their investors.
☟︎ williamdunne: The idea I
think is actually ok, Plymouth does need
to be better connected, but
they're definitely derping around with it
williamdunne: No, nor
the advice "Social Enterprise is stupid" is
the only
thing I
think he heard
Landgull: I don't
think he liked
the results of
the stress
test.
flyplymouth: if you want
to
talk serious
then I can set it up
williamdunne: flyplymouth: Whats his number, I'll
try and get him on here.
trinque: I haven't had
to hit it with a wrench in a bit
