mircea_popescu: not really my cup, but
then again we can't all gaggle in
the same spots.
mod6: Beautiful land out
there. At least,
to me anyway.
mod6: Yeah,
the modern city/area of Vail is just north of where
the historical ranch is located.
mod6: if Vail, AZ (the city/surrounding area) is named after him, I used
to live right by
there.
mircea_popescu: it's very interesting
to me from an anthropological pov, because you see, at
the
time everything was "empire", from film studios
to pond shops.
mircea_popescu: probably
the source of all
the cowboy and indian stories. and, notably,
the first ranch where
the queen bee woman actually settled down on
the premises.
mircea_popescu: anyway, "In its heyday, Empire Ranch was one of
the largest in Arizona, with a range spanning over 180 miles, and its owner, Walter L. Vail, was an important figure in
the establishment of southern Arizona's cattle industry."
mircea_popescu: i
tell you, i look at
those guys, i kinda wanna be friends.
kakobrekla: that only allows for up
to 2gb of css.
joecool: kakobrekla: aw man you mean
they didn't choose godaddy shared hosting?
mircea_popescu: i'm paying 2btc (once) in return for a single btc stolen from bitstamp's aws cloud after
today. comes with a signed certificate.
☟︎ mircea_popescu: well, let's verify
this most secure computer environments claim.
kakobrekla: * Bitstamp is now running on Amazon’s world-class AWS cloud infrastructure, architected
to be one of
the most secure and reliable cloud computing environments available.
kakobrekla: We are happy
to announce
that we are back open for business
ben_vulpes: actually
thestringpuller you can use docker
to compile c on whatever and ship
the resulting binary
to
the raspi
mircea_popescu: apparently bitcoin isn't half as revolutionary as we had
thought. internet scammers had
the exact same problems long prior.
mircea_popescu: "You can't
tell
them anything
that will change
their minds. You have
to show
them
that money can be made online by actually doing it yourself. Don't be influenced by
the nay-sayers, just prove
them wrong."
Apocalyptic: I don't
think so, not qualified nor
time for it
Apocalyptic: in
the bitcoin space not much, just keeping
track
mircea_popescu: no, in reference
to some derp
that implemented
the first version and made an utter mess of it.
Apocalyptic: "molokization" // in reference
to Moloch ?
mircea_popescu: for
that matter, if i find out
the molokization of deedbot v2.0 actually has anything
to do with your meddling, i'll negrate you
too.
mircea_popescu: you're not welcome
to keep pestering people in pms, and deedbot will be reimplemented for
the
third
time.
mircea_popescu: punkman is off
the deedbot project after
the horrid failure of
the past month, and i've only not neg rated him yet because gribblewas off.
mircea_popescu: RagnarDanneskjol no, it is not going in
the right direction.
mircea_popescu: i hope hje's partenering with kenna
to start a moon printing program

gribble: What do you

davout: i'm
the richest of my living rool!11
adlai: and i'm among
the 50 richest people from my army unit
davout: Merlak, 28, and his colleague Nejc Kodric, 25, both computer experts, founded Bitstamp in 2011. According
to
the Slovenian media
the
two had earned about 23 million euros ($27.2 million) from
the enterprise which places
them among
the 50 richest Slovenians.
adlai: yes
this is a document, it has been published,
there are no risks because nothing is for sale yet
jurov: "The Core Developers or other programmers could propose amendments
to
the Bitcoin Network’s protocols and software
that, if accepted and authorized by
the Bitcoin Network’s community, could adversely affect an investment in
the Shares." huehue
adlai: this is OK, when
they attain self-awareness we should start worrying
jurov: he's looking forward
to
the day someone does DPA on his brain
thestringpuller: you make a great point. just have
to word
the bet correctly.
davout: srsly,
that could be one of
the very few bets
to be automatically solvable
davout: the same source
that makes us all agree on who owns which coins
davout: i dunno lol, i'm just saying you don't need an intermediary
to source
the resolution data,
the data is by definition public, right?
davout: why would you need bc.info
to count blocks and count hashes?
thestringpuller: how do you resolve? blockchain.info I personally wouldn't
trust as a resolution source
assbot: Logged on 09-01-2015 09:00:04; davout: i'd word
the bet "there exists a block > 1m, building on main net, with block index <= ARBITRARY_TRESHOLD ,
that gets more
than 2016 confirmations, in less
than a month"
thestringpuller: davout: yea I don't know how
to word it. i know how
to bet on exchanges going down.
[]bot: Bet placed: 1 BTC for No on "Light Sweet Crude Oil (WTI)
to drop under $40 before Mar 2015"
http://bitbet.us/bet/1096/ Odds: 45(Y):55(N) by coin, 47(Y):53(N) by weight.
Total bet: 2.35388047 BTC. Current weight: 92,212.
punkman: seems like it was Pieter Wuille's
thing at first
punkman: so
they'll stick
their noses in many places
punkman: probably someone else started it,
they are
trying
to be relevant by doing "core" development now
mircea_popescu: so
they made it for
the vc backed firm by recycling some older stuffs ?
punkman: I
think
that lib predates blockstream
fluffypony: the ecp functions and
the ecp curves are ~3400 lines of code
mircea_popescu: i mean,
tests, sure, provable code, sure, random
tests, sure.
mircea_popescu: but yes openssl is warty. especially for
this use. and heck, more
tests... never hurt.
mircea_popescu: anyway, i very much doubt nullc actually has any idea as
to what's going on, apart from being in
the room when it was explained and now
typing words on reddit. and i doubt wuille actually did anything deliberately nefarious
there.
mircea_popescu: so if you had
to guess, how many previously innocent reddit read your comment and figured "hmm...
there's something here" ?
mircea_popescu: but i do respect
the sort of idiot
that will actually go in
there and do
that sort of
thing.
fluffypony: I applaud
the
test coverage, and I do agree
that OpenSSL is shitty, but I don't understand
the logic in writing from scratch
mircea_popescu: you know, i despise reddit, and
that
thing's a fine example, like are many others.
mircea_popescu: fluffypony
that you in
there, pointing out gmaxwell's idiocy ?
assbot: nullc comments on On why 0.10's release notes say "we have reason
to believe
that libsecp256k1 is better
tested and more
thoroughly reviewed
than
the implementation in OpenSSL" ... (

assbot: On why 0.10's release notes say "we have reason
to believe
that libsecp256k1 is better
tested and more
thoroughly reviewed
than

http://bit.ly/1BThrna )
davout: yeah, but if it manages 2016 confs in a month it has at least half
the hashpower
davout: i
think it missed
the
timeframe bit amirite
mircea_popescu: davout
there exists something like
that already, "gavin's orphan chain won't die before 50 block long"
davout: there's also
the work part
cazalla: My apologies
to any and all annoyed by my drunken spamming of
the channel last night..
davout: mircea_popescu: defined by
the first block's hash
