mircea_popescu: omg all teh hate.
kakobrekla: you horse shit can be turned into btc
adlai: good thing the chart scraper was turned off, it would've captured a cartload of horseshit
kakobrekla: mats it seem they are right this time. dik, get a real client or smth.
jurov: i remember we talked with mircea about more direct access, he was like "nah, not needed anymore, we have it covered"
adlai: mpex web-side totally fucked eh
jurov: (it's our incumbent railways reaction to competition)
jurov: http://www.zelpage.cz/news_n/zssk_aeer_nove_wc.jpg someone who projected this toilet prolly got some fumes, too
BingoBoingo: mats: You are now qualified to operate BTC mine
mats: wouldn't have noticed if i hadn't went to poop
mats: nah a cloak won't take precedence over the irccloud one
jurov: slight correction: they don't open accounts for USians they only said to me "our customers use usd" .. i just misextrapolated
jborkl: heh, too hard to scrape exchange rate and divide by BTC
BingoBoingo: What the fuck. "I am near you would like to be customer" "Fuck you, our customers are Americans so we can scam them with impunity"
jurov: i was like wtf how they imagine offering usd coupon codes to muricans when everyone else was forced to stop doing it
jurov: "nooo that would be difficult"
jurov: so i asked them about the calculator instead of just saying go to xe.com
jurov: already i got into argument with these coinmates.. since their czech ass is close to eurozone and they offer sepa/czk
BingoBoingo: Is .inmate a tld yet?
kakobrekla: we sincerely apologize but our site was under a massive Distributed Denial of Service attack. We have reconfigured our servers for full protection by one of the world's best DDOS protection providers, so there will not be any downtime in the future. Our service has now world-class security.
jurov: later read it as co.inmate, had double take
jurov: btw, i was invited to coinmate.io
jurov: argh, every github hipster now wires travis ci to their project
kakobrekla: cant you put cloak on top of that?
mats: would you make it three dots?
BingoBoingo: I liked assbot PM though. Made it easy to say !up while typing less
thestringpuller: "We choose to bitcoin company in the bitcoin way" - some derp CEO of some coinderp company. These quotes are getting ridiculous.

mats: heart dun mean shit when you've got to march 20mi in a 30 pound iotv, with a 45 pound pack, and 15 pounds of weapon and magazine
BingoBoingo: Depends on the size of the payload the tank demands
asciilifeform: http://wurmhoudt.blogspot.com/2012/08/anti-tank-dogs.html << chihuahua could work just as well in this job.
mats: but, hey, israel allows chihuahuas to serve in their infantry units!!!
mats: its already been done for chihuahuas going through Airborne and Air Assault school
mats: don't worry BingoBoingo, trainers will lower requirements so the chihuahuas can graduate
BingoBoingo: !up t4nk
ben_vulpes: ask punkman. nominally some progress was to be made this weekend.
kakobrekla: seems to be dying off
kakobrekla: recording now, unable to access the box for the while
asciilifeform: once posted in the open, the chumps begin to get 'overgrazed'
asciilifeform: ddos aficionados scan the net for these boxes, and then sell (or sometimes simply post) the resulting chump list
asciilifeform: for the impatient: the way this particular type of ddos works is called 'amplification.' certain kinds of misconfigured consumer routers will send several packets to victim ip for every packet received from the diddler's. hence amp.
scoopbot: New post on Trilema by Mircea Popescu: http://trilema.com/2014/teenage-boys-the-premier-source-of-comedy-gold/
davout: asset transfers will happen when MPEx gets back
asciilifeform: http://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:L1ay4bsEJyIJ:www.hackforums.net/showthread.php%3Ftid%3D4427786+&cd=1&hl=en&ct=clnk&gl=us << from same snakepit, explanation for the thickest
davout: mircea_popescu: so you're using mysqlol on the proxies
asciilifeform: interestingly, they do not publish the ips, but did post this graphic: https://ssdpscan.shadowserver.org/all/ssdp_hilbert_4096_current.png << from which you can easily derive them!
asciilifeform: kakobrekla: if you can be bothered, try the experiment again, with tcpdump log. and post or send privately (i only need packet payloads and originator ip)
asciilifeform: ;;later tell kakobrekla when you measured the 1+gb/sec or whatever of ddos, didja log incoming packets ?
mircea_popescu: davout lol well, they have a split issue. the proxies are online, just... no data.

kakobrekla: ;;google machine that goes ping
kakobrekla: ah yes, the ping machine!
davout: jurov: the patient is dead but the heart monitor self-test reports 100% success phew
thestringpuller: go to #freenode "Hey can I have cloak"
mircea_popescu: if they just wantr to idle in 500 "bitcoin related" channels fuck them.
mircea_popescu: ben_vulpes if they're actively trying to stick, they can triviallydo so.
ben_vulpes: <mircea_popescu> the way this guy cuts down on all the dumb idlers that imagine whatever, b-a is just another channel, can autopilot in is so fucking great srlsy. << too strong of a noob filter imho. more spport for the casuals!
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform you don't understand how the world works!1111!!
asciilifeform: at first it works, but then some freenode bot instantly removes it << wtf is the deal with the 'cloaking' thing anyway. why the idiocy of displaying ip by default ?
mircea_popescu: if they're specially denominated, yeah.
davout: from what i understand, it's usually the case that the N and N+1 contracts trade simultaneously during a few days at least
mircea_popescu: yeah well, the time granularity here is closer to the day than to the second
davout: absolutely, but at any point of time there can't be only a single contract type trading, unlike what i understand from the usual future contracts where at some point both contracts are trading simultaneously
mircea_popescu: but these aren't two dollar bills. one is a dollar bill of your paycheck today. the other is a dollar bill of your paycheck next month. they aren't fungible.
davout: well, just because two dollar bills have a different serial number doesn't make it very useful to distinguish them, likewise it does not seem very useful to me to want to distinguish between these, maybe it's just me but i don't see what problem this solves
mircea_popescu: because they are actually different things.
davout: i guess that what i'm trying to clear up is the question: "why do you want to distinguish them?"
davout: if one automatically turns into the other one at some point they sure look like the same to me
mircea_popescu: i can see people doing that.
davout: i could understand the "it's actually two different assets" point if at some point you had to sell the old one and buy the new one
mircea_popescu: anyway, you'll get the new set later today, nottin' to get too excited about.
davout: because the way i see it, it could perfectly make sense to say "if you want delivery, email me before cutoff minus 24h, push the asset, email receipt, and you get delivered on the settlement date"
mircea_popescu: this works ok if therer's some time separation.
thestringpuller: N's would eventually turn into T's
thestringpuller: mircea_popescu: is this why there were options appended with T and N
davout: could you elaborate on the settlement spot ?
davout: mircea_popescu: old and new can be distinguished by the current timestamp, after cutoff all "old" contracts turn into "new"
davout: mircea_popescu: so, why does it not make sense according to you that x.eur could trade continuously?
mircea_popescu: davout will happen today :)
thestringpuller: does anyone sleep that much in this channel?
davout: thestringpuller: ah thx
cazalla: thestringpuller, yeah, those articles are good for the weekend
assbot: You had the last Philistine. This one's mine.
mircea_popescu: me too yeah
cazalla: nb considering things have been slow past week, i would expect things to crawl over xmas period too
mircea_popescu: anyways, nice going. it's fun to have the ath yest.
cazalla: who are all these asians though
mircea_popescu: but whenever reddit or whoever pours in, there's a huge upsurge in traffic visible for quantcast.
mircea_popescu: i think part of this might be that most of qntra stable readership are computer savvy folks and so invisible,
mircea_popescu: funny enoughy, awstats doesn't see the same sort of jumps
cazalla: not bad considering i was drunk at the time, just ask BingoBoingo
thestringpuller: to quote "I came for the bunny" so you should actually be thanking cazalla 's bunny
assbot: Ford Motor Company: Bitcoin A Trend For 2015 : Bitcoin ... ( http://bit.ly/1GHCSsy )

mircea_popescu: larger than the previous peak.
mircea_popescu: you seen that c?
