danielpbarron: is it still an article if they tapped out?
danielpbarron: Update: BTC-e admins have reached out to Coin Fire to state that withdrawals have been re-enabled and that they have no further comments regarding the situation moving forward regarding this or any other security issue.
mircea_popescu: "how about you fill in the paperwork while i keep on being in charge."
nubbins`: you can't be in charge until you fill out this paperwork!
mircea_popescu: much like you know, "you can'tr fuck this woman until this old man has sprinkled water on her"
mircea_popescu: but this is exactly it, usg trying to insert itself into the process by "blessing bitcoins"
nubbins`: actually, that'd be an interesting trace.
nubbins`: by my count, guy's got a hundred bucks belonging to me
nubbins`: i wonder will they halt withdrawals when draper's stolen SR bitcoins start moving to exchanges?
mircea_popescu: this is a capital offense. mass arson, rape and murder is a tea party by comparison.
mircea_popescu: no one ever will survive trying to make one bitcoin unequal to another bitcoin.
mircea_popescu: in any case this "we attack bitcoin fungibility and expect to remain in business" angle has to be dispelled.
danielpbarron: and the only thing it hurts is themselves
danielpbarron: it's a horrible reason to stop withdrawals
mircea_popescu: doesn't seem a terribly legit reason to stop withdrawals, who knows if they're piggybacking on it to excuse their own failure.

mircea_popescu: etrade only exists because that model's practically dead.
mircea_popescu: Tetra113 seriously, this isn't etrade in a different color scheme.
Tetra113: so nubbins` where did you buy them?

nubbins`: generally, one gets in on shares by buying them
mircea_popescu: Tetra113 so then find them and buy chunks.
mircea_popescu: the crash is only important if it can be used to poison the stack. otherwise... it's just annoying.
Tetra113: chetty, yes obviously there has to be some company generating the value??
nubbins`: on the surface, it looks like a plain kettle-stitch binding, with the addition of those stress strips
mircea_popescu: ahh, the sweet innocence of presnowden.
mircea_popescu: random spectacular crash due to bad locking."
mircea_popescu: should be glorified or cared about as being any more "special" than a
mircea_popescu: there's a lot more of them. I don't think some spectacular security hole
mircea_popescu: "In fact, all the boring normal bugs are _way_ more important, just because
mircea_popescu: well that's all i had :D
nubbins`: have seen that video
mircea_popescu: ie, we've built a much larger % of the computers that could be than there's been people alive as a % of the people that could be.
nubbins`: remarkably hard to find solid info on
mircea_popescu: i wonder idly if anyone even realises that the turing machine space has by now been explored MUCH more in depth than the human genetic space, for instance.

mircea_popescu: nubbins` noit that amazed, history of internet.
mircea_popescu: what's that one trying to achieve ?
nubbins`: (you'd be amazed how many people who don't know what DNS stands for know what it does these days)
nubbins`: given that more people are familiar with changing DNS servers as a result of wanting to watch american netflix, you'll see the turnaround on these things get shorter
mircea_popescu: kakobrekla used to work in china. for the first coupla years.
kakobrekla: idk imma guess they just change the native dns and using an alternative one fixes this
mircea_popescu: nubbins` you know just like who ? just like putin, except not the real one, the factitious version that "is holding country back" jurov was talking about.
mircea_popescu: nubbins` i dunno man, to me it's the crowning achievement of a particular sort of technopunk, which is what 50 years of soviet industry really is.
nubbins`: they're apparently running all of them 8)
mircea_popescu: kakobrekla i don't get it, is the french govt running an isp ?!
nubbins`: if so, why in the world did she think her ass was a good place for that to happen?
Tetra113: mircea_popescu, mostly sites that appear written by you lol
nubbins`: specifically, had she ever seen the release valve opened on a full one?

mircea_popescu: they have no users. just because the whatsapp scam was pushed by fb on the grounds of "users" (by the way, did the fantabulous "growth rate" continue after the acquisition ?) does not mean that the same sort of fraud will either work again in the future or is in itself any sort of value.

mircea_popescu: more interesting is, why did he get away with it for long enough to become a prolbem
asciilifeform: (no modern recoillness cannon works this way)
asciilifeform: and retained the unwieldy bulk
asciilifeform: went with 'conversative' design where he took ordinary cannon of whatever kind, and sawed off the breech, replacing with funnel.
asciilifeform: (built in vast numbers, apparently all maldesigned, head engineer goes from hero - at one point, monopolizer of virtually all cannon factories - to zero - shot in the head - within 7 years)
asciilifeform: incidentally, any serious amateur historian of political engineering skullduggery will enjoy an account of the life and death of the recoilless rifle in '30s ussr.

asciilifeform behind the times
asciilifeform: wai they made a prediction ?
