benkay: mircea_popescu Hirethestache i'm suggesting using the user-specific inbound address.
benkay: mircea_popescu Hirethestache doesn't CB allocate users a specific receipt address?

asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: a turd that port scans wantonly would appear to be uncommonly poor workmanship even for usg.
khersonus: mircea_popescu: for example?
khersonus: mircea_popescu: why not run your options system with your own pricing index? it seemed to me that your two complaints about bitcoincharts were that an exchange pushed doge data, and they didn't remove mtgox. Couldn't you do better yourself?
khersonus: mircea_popescu: btw, been reading through your blog, good stuff (and some... weird stuff)
khersonus: mircea_popescu: that there have been a large number of scams in bitcoin as a result of the "owner takes all the coins" thinking
freeroute: mircea_popescu: cool, I'll give them a read.
freeroute: mircea_popescu: hmm, I was under the impression that OT was still being developed

freeroute: mircea_popescu: difficult. I'd say both, I wouldn't trust it more then I would trust security through obscurity
joecool: mircea_popescu: makin it rain
bitcoinpete: mircea_popescu: maybe the "yes" bettors figure bitbet can keep their coins safer than they can?
joecool: mircea_popescu: yeah iknorite?
ThickAsThieves: <mircea_popescu> i'm really blown away by the yes bets. /// why's that?
mircea_popescu: Mar 05 03:06:20 <mircea_popescu>when i do hidden in plain sight, it's hidden. when the usg tries it, it's snowdened.
mircea_popescu: Ansgar John @ErikVoorhees @WarrenBuffett @Mircea_Popescu a year is a much too short amount of time to say much. Bet him 15 years and he might take it.

moiety: mircea_popescu: mew! sorry i passed out and forgot to put this off. had to sleep off potential hangover before babysitting a giveaway today to preserve calmness. Nope, that's not me... is that >thing< supposed to be a forum?!
FabianB: mircea_popescu: (regarding idfiff) yes, but my guess is they weren't created directly after last excercise, probably in february, but who knows

moiety: it was a link that benkay posted a few days ago, saying bout time. streaming movies from torrents mircea_popescu just heard just now it went down already
copumpkin: mircea_popescu: weird
bitcoinpete: ;;later tell mircea_popescu: I should check out the film, I've only seen the mainstage production :) I'm not sure how very strange my naiveté is. I'm less naive than I was 2 months ago, prior to the commencement of my IRC yeshiva, but hardly deserving of expectation. Either way, and as always, thx for reading and the feedback.You're like having a younger Taleb as a personal tutor...
dignork: mircea_popescu, historically we might be, but it was too long ago
dignork: mircea_popescu, just a popular language
dignork: mircea_popescu, let's say from USSR
dignork: mircea_popescu, complicated question, but not from India :)

nubbins`: mircea_popescu: provide pantone colors ;)
nubbins`: mircea_popescu: not a big deal if you can't also calibrate the client's monitor
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: 'write levelling' will give you a good 5+ years of life.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: swap it for 'ssd' - but specifically, one several times larger than necessary
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: they don't sell 'raid5' boards where you live?
BitChrista: mircea_popescu Haha!
BitChrista: mircea_popescu were you really? I feel like that would weather someone down fast
BitChrista: mircea_popescu thank you for introducing me to this chat room. I completely agree, once Bitcoin is in politics it'll be untouchable.
BitChrista: mircea_popescu, I've been doing some research. I have a solid list, mostly of those running for congress. People are starting to come to us though which is nice
BitChrista: mircea_popescu, what wuestions do you have about CoinVox?
BitChrista: Thanks Mircea_Popescu
pLambert: mircea_popescu: you seem to hate on NEOBEE much, you think they will fail?

asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: 'six fucking months to break down the male blocks on killing, and even then it only works sorta 50-50' << i've yet to see this confirmed for homo sapiens vs. homo americanus circa 1940s
Neil: <mircea_popescu> Neil since you mentioned jtd, you ever read the original mpoe prospectus ? << I have, probably twice. What's the connection?
davout: ;;later tell mircea_popescu deposits pl0x
cads: mircea_popescu: I concur
cads: mircea_popescu: we'll have an epsilon for each target problem, and maybe the cost of solving al the target problems starting from A must be greater than or equal to solving B, C, D... seperately.
cads: mircea_popescu: to formalize this completely we'll have to assume something like a polynomial time algorithm that converts the output of algorithm A into a solution for problem B.
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: Well, most minds have their head splints set to promote that nowadays.
cads: mircea_popescu: I feel the same here, for the opposite side
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: Your lemma is sensical so long as it is restricted to hard POW's
cads: mircea_popescu: I think we should be able to test the hypothesis directly against the primecoin if we try hard enough
cads: mircea_popescu: I don't feel it mathematically yet but I feel why we'd like this to hold, economically
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: Once they hit the crystal... It's just safest to assign them the pronoun that inspires the least sexual interest.
cads: mircea_popescu: it's without question that anyone can look at the outputs of the two algorithms and verify that ~2^k energy was expended. Perhaps the problem happens when we require the second algorithm to also guarantee a useful output relative to the third party.
