mike_c: this is
the problem with relying on robots
to serve our needs.
mike_c: silly bots.
thx bingo.
adlai: or just sum all
the
transactions during
that day
to get an upper bound, and assume
that bitpay account for X%
adlai: crowdsource stats, collect a bounty
to distribute among all entities providing valid signatures for
transactions during black friday. pay
the consumers for
their data!
cazalla: if anyone remembers .au police
taking a bitcoin atm.. cops have revealed
the inventory from
the bust, no info on actual bitcoin amount so nothing newsworth but
this paragraph is lulzy "The cash haul was more
than $313,000, with property seized including vehicles, mobile phones, computers and a rare Bitcoin ATM."
[Namworld]: Since ads are not direct link but a FB link
that
tracks and redirect, I guess bots just click and never request
the page
they're asked
to redirect
to.
[Namworld]: Aye, should have at least 500 clicks once it's done. At least FB side. Apparently most don't even get
to have a request sent
to
the actual website.
mircea_popescu: [Namworld] pretty much all. but it'd show in
the log for merely asking for
the page, anyway
[Namworld]: Easier
than copying from elsewhere. I doubt it's hard
to come up with a lot of FB credentials on black market/from a botnet.
[Namworld]: Because
the photos on
those suspicious accounts have pictures of same person posted over and over. Yet
they don't act like humans. Especially when you start
tracking
them once on your website.
[Namworld]: Hmm, I guess
there's other smaller social networks, especially in non-english countries. I guess facebook botnets could crawl and use info from profiles elsewhere.
adlai: they use it
to suggest
tags
[Namworld]: Either way
there seems
to be rampant networks of click-happy bots ramping up costs. At least on low bids/global audience.
adlai: facebook would probably catch onto copied accounts quite fast,
they run facial recognition on every photo
[Namworld]: So hacked accounts or copied info/posts from account with privacy settings set
to public.
[Namworld]: Yet when it's clicks for fanpage,
they result in a fan, and randomly selecting fans gives you a realistic profile.
[Namworld]: Facebook ads shows 50 clicks. So instant bounce/no wait for loading. How many of
those 21 bounced?
[Namworld]: I'll
try raising
the bid a bit I guess.
[Namworld]: Yes, well it's started. For some reason, it seems slow
to work on getting website clicks. It gets you clicks faster for fanpage like button.
[Namworld]: I read something about some FB users just liking
tons of stuff like
they collect likes and using FB in odd ways.
[Namworld]: For some reason,
they just like
tons of random pages. If I had
to guess, hacked accounts/people not bothering
to remove liked pages.
[Namworld]: If facebook likes are from bot...
the bot accounts are pretty impressively well made. Photos of same person over years, often multiple years of Facebook usage, conversations
that somewhat make sense when
translated, although not sure if it's issues of
translation or just gibberish. Just doesn't look like gibberish.
adlai: jurov: what happens when a coinbr account has assets but no btc when you need
to charge
the management fee?
adlai: looks like somebody needs
to upgrade
their log parser
to LALR
xanthyos: oh, breaking bad season 6,
this site is all hoaxes.
xanthyos: no wonder
the price hasn't moved much since
xanthyos: gotta find a pose
that's close
to
this mugshot
to make a cute meme
adlai: it'd be cool
to watch a gold pop correspond with a bitcoin rally

adlai: you heard it here first:
the next reward halving is an appropriate occasion for a 420 celebration
adlai: it's kinda
the opposite of obama's
cazalla: jurov, have you not seen putin's
thumbs up for
titties?
jurov: i once read somewhere abou soviet culturai influence on east germany and
they wrote "even some people had slavic facial features"
mircea_popescu: lol mk. what could happen ? a lot of fucking, and
then...
the end.
jurov: i mean invading
the whorehouse
mircea_popescu: berlin is
the story of a 50 year enclave
THAT REDUCED
THE PINCER
mircea_popescu: tell you what,
the us can't make a missile shield, and europe doesn't need any shield atop its cuntshield.
mircea_popescu: yeah, right. because he's dumb enough
to repeat charles' mistakes, and send country boys under arms in whoretown.
jurov: if
that's gonna happen, i fully expect putin
to set on
to properly and for once get rid of such moral depravity
mircea_popescu: (and fwiw,
the notion
that a young woman won't readily bare herself on request strikes me more like a quaint anachronism of
the islamic world & western colonies
than anything. of course she would.)
mircea_popescu: europe is going
to be pretty much naked in public as
the norm in a decade or
two.
jurov: and
there are plenty windows
to see into each other,
too
jurov: actually i don't need imgur for it. around here
the flats are so densely packed
that
there's hot inside (at least since
they're wrapped in eurofoam) and most people run around naked
jurov: that will be revelaed in
time and all will be well
mircea_popescu: apparently guy doesn't know how
to write out "I'd like
to exchange you for my wife. You game ?" in less
than eight paragraphs.
jurov: still.. maybe either of
them has cool ass
tattoo
jurov: you've seen
their butts?
mircea_popescu: jurov sure, plenty of asocial fat
trading card game nerds are in it for being famous.
jurov: i don't see how being a famous << i stopped reading
there,
that may be what he's for anyway
zaht: its nothing more
than a counterpoint
to
the idea
that his comeuppance is due
mircea_popescu: what exactly makes you
think you're in a position
to have an opinion, either about
that general point or about
the particular we were discussing ?
zaht: my point is
that until
the liabilities are in fact reconciled, he is getting away with it, he just might be able
to for
the rest of his life
mircea_popescu: he didn't walk off with any money, but with a
ton of liabilities.
zaht: well
the loot is all
that matters
zaht: you have
to hand it
to mr. karples, he *is* getting off scott free with his crimes
mircea_popescu: no, it just doesn't meet
the "entirely vc-fraud and shitvapour" profile of f.derp
thestringpuller: MTGox would be
the historical
textbook example of
the characteristics of DERP.
adlai: so you're scared
to short it? :P
mircea_popescu: i guess
that's a summary, but really plenty of room left for
tons of indepth analysis.
thestringpuller: cazalla: yea lilyhammer is almost like norway's
take on
the sorpranos.
adlai: whether
the helix is "cauterized" at one end by linking
the
two strands is irrelevant for
this specific point
zaht: crypto stocks leave a lot
to be desired
adlai: so you get
two strands of DNA, but you also get
three reading frames per strand
adlai is referring
to "you know how real live beings' genetics work, right ? You get
two strands of DNA.
Two, not one.
Two"
cazalla: thestringpuller, any good? i miss
the sopranos

thestringpuller: i just like
to make sure
there is non-repudiation for my submissions, ie.e
the editors know it came from me
cazalla: it wouldn't hurt,
thestringpuller has a habit of clearsigning his submissions
PeterL: do I need
to gpg sign it or anything like
that?
cazalla: PeterL, email
to cazalla@fastmail.com.au,
ty btw, weekend has been quite slow
PeterL: cazalla: I have an article for qntra, how
