mrjr: there's edge cases with malleability etc, but
the benefits are
that bitcoin operations can have
their coins kept in a
tx form, not as
the information of
the privkey
mrjr: multisig is useful
to protect access
to privkey, by splitting
the power of moving funds
to 2+ entities. we pre-sign
transactions, nlocked in
time, and discard
the private key.
mrjr: thestringpuller: never had
the need for it :)
mrjr: one of
the first services we're providing (closed beta now) is keeping your nlock'ed
transactions for you, until
they're ripe for confirmations on
the blockchain
mrjr: los_pantalones: i run LedgerLock, we're working on a product called
time-vault,
to secure your bitcoins in nlocked
transactions rather
than protecting
the priv key
☟︎ los_pantalones: mrjr why don't you
tell
them a bit of what you are doing w/ ntimelock
nubbins`: how in
the fuck is
this a functioning business
nubbins`: guy made me wait 15 minutes while he struggled
to determine if
they actually sold 6-packs
nubbins`: you know
this is
the second
time i've gotten dicked around over bulbs?
nubbins`: thestringpuller so now i say fuck
that company and order
the gd bulbs online
thestringpuller: nubbins`: so instead of 18 bulbs,
the guy pulls...
three. << so now you have
to wait another 10 weeks
to get
the next 15 you need?
nubbins`: ;;later
tell ben_vulpes ^^
tell us what you know
nubbins`: i was getting
there but my virtual disk was
too small, ran outta space, weird disk error ;/
nubbins`: anyone besides alf actually
tried and failed loading blockchain on 0.5.3?
thestringpuller: asciilifeform: know
thy enemy << enemies are only relative. yesterday's allies easily become
tomorrow's enemies. (perhaps maybe a one way street).
☟︎ nubbins`: each of which is 6x more expensive
than i'd previously
thought.
nubbins`: so instead of 18 bulbs,
the guy pulls...
three.
nubbins`: soooo,
the fluorescent
tubes
that
took
TEN WEEKS
to get here?
turns out "F20T12/BL 6PK" is
the item number not of a 6-pack, but of a single bulb
assbot: Dilbert comic strip for 02/05/2001 from
the official Dilbert comic strips archive.
thestringpuller: yes yes. but if
this is case should we not remove nlocktime altogether?
thestringpuller: its a pretty neat feature for say senior
to give jr. allotments of capital at guarenteed future date
thestringpuller: but yes I do see
the new opcode as sorta crufty on "cruft"
nubbins`: surely
the coar devs have spoken on
this point
thestringpuller: nlocktime gives spender power
to double spend before nlocktime occurs
assbot: Logged on 13-11-2014 01:46:06; asciilifeform: BingoBoingo: bip-0065 << classic 'relevance farming.'
the phoundation will
take any excuse
to add cruft
to
the gizmo. in
their fantasy, folks will use it, and
those who have resisted
their
turds will be forced
to merge in.
Adlai: would you automate
the following system: a car
that self-destructs (killing
the intruder) when it detects
that it's being accessed without
the owner's permission? where ownership is determined in an arbitrarily advanced way, ie, physical
token, password, biometric, whatever you fancy.
Adlai: i'll admit
that my feeling
that darcs could be appropriate for
this purpose is based more on speculation from darcs's
theoretic background
than on familiarity with
the actual working software
assbot: Cloud&Heat is putting servers in homes and offices and
the heat from
them is free.
Adlai: in my experience, all systems can be automated, and it's only a matter of deciding at what level you're willing
to lose a human's judgement/"moral compass", but gain
the benefits of automation

mike_c: hm,
this deserves more study. with pictures.
xanthyos: i sent
to my bc.i from coinbase. i am no longer anonymous.
mircea_popescu: turns out
there's a lot of predictive power in
this
tits like math
thing.
mircea_popescu: if you don't feel like doing it, you can always ask a
ta.
mike_c: you know what i like about math? i recently had a difficult math problem
to solve, and didn't feel like dealing with it. so i had a math
TA do it for
total cost of 0.
xanthyos: it's a counterweight
to
the ass
xanthyos: is it selection by males or did women with larger breasts simply have more milk
to feed
their young?
mircea_popescu: xanthyos monkeys don't have any
tits
to speak of.
the female breast is clearly
the result of selection.
the only way
that works is for women with
tits
to have money while women without not
to.
bagels7: no, women with large breasts make more money causing poor women
to mainly be small
tit owners
xanthyos: their big-titted mothers still provide
their adolescents bras right?
xanthyos: so children with underdeveloped breasts now shop for
themselves?
mircea_popescu: Singles Day—the annual Nov 11 online shopping frenzy in which Alibaba saw as many as 2.85 million
transactions a minute at its peak, and a
total of $9.3 billion in sales
mircea_popescu: yeah,
totally, young women have less purchasing power
than older women.
mircea_popescu: "Besides
the possible reasons for
the
trend— namely
that younger women with less purchasing power may be
the ones buying smaller-sized bras"
xanthyos: wow coinbase is WAY cheaper
than stander
xanthyos: use

Trilema - Un blog de Mircea Popescu.
xanthyos: now i see it

them
to send btc
mircea_popescu: what's even
the point of buying fractions of bitcents ?
xanthyos: stander is

mircea_popescu: figure it out,
the only customer of
the bank is
the govt.
mircea_popescu: <xanthyos> if a bank calls me up suspicously i will
turn it on
them. how dare you bother a long standing customer! << lmao
this works, yeah.
thestringpuller: coinbase is a lot of work. I have
to keep my accounts separate and can't have money fluctuate
too high or low without suspcicious phone calls.
mircea_popescu: <bagels7> What do you expect from
this WoT, Is fraud a concern <<
that didn't parse. say wut ?
