BingoBongo:
mircea_popescu I might have, I'll recheck her post history.
midnightmagic:
mircea_popescu: the bootstrapping itself is still going on.
midnightmagic:
mircea_popescu: blockchain-destroying events tend to set back adoption progress amongst people who are afraid of what everyone else will think.
BingoBongo:
mircea_popescu the difference is probably how much they will try to reiforce their canon against sense...
BingoBongo: And
mircea_popescu many will probably try to sweep it under the rug as LevelDB is broken, because it isn't BerkelyDB. You're on the right track, but I think this was probably the wrong error...
BingoBongo:
mircea_popescu Not at all. Maybe tie the definitive switch to standards only to the next halving? God is gone so let's send things to committee.
kakobrekla:
mircea_popescu he wants to do these meta bets

benkay: what's this referring to:
mircea_popescu: maximian if the idiots hadn't put in the 250k limit it would have jhappened and been resolved in 2011
smickles:
mircea_popescu: i only have a self taught understanding of technicals and i see it, so people who trade on technicals probably see it too and are taking action
benkay:
mircea_popescu: what are you calculating there?
smickles:
mircea_popescu: we had a double top and a crisis. we're going to 2

smickles:
mircea_popescu: 23 minutes on the .7 chain
smickles:
mircea_popescu: they do do a little on the testnet, it's just that the queue of stuff to test is long, and noone want's to help out
smickles:
mircea_popescu: look at blockchain.info, the major pools are mining an orphaned chain
smickles:
mircea_popescu: it mined a block sized larger than 250k
smickles:
mircea_popescu: some arn't, the largest pools are
mpexbot:
mircea_popescu: your blog fails to load
smickles:
mircea_popescu: isn't it off by about 8 digits?
smickles:
mircea_popescu: what's up with that?
smickles:
mircea_popescu: is that unchanged on the 7day?
smickles:
mircea_popescu: i also have those p310t's i bought a while back
smickles:
mircea_popescu: i bought them, if the bc,24hprc moves to the current spot, they break even
smickles:
mircea_popescu: no, this was clearly the time to <@assbot> [MPEX] [O.BTCUSD.P750T] 10 @ 0.79079695 = 7.908 BTC [-]
gesell:
mircea_popescu: even if it is, it will take time for everyone to get on the proper chain, no... since apparently some versions will have to upgrade
smickles:
mircea_popescu: i know, but how would you be careful about it. seems binary to me
gesell:
mircea_popescu: shorting possitions on mpex?
pizzaman1337:
mircea_popescu: have you considered hiring people to work on it?
dub:
mircea_popescu: at least for the next 100 years
dub:
mircea_popescu: its obvious they don't want adoption
dub:
mircea_popescu: because 'not ready for primetime'
dub:
mircea_popescu: you know the answer right
dub:
mircea_popescu: loving the WTC ref
Ukto:
mircea_popescu is correct
dub:
mircea_popescu: big blocks are the problem here
dub:
mircea_popescu: well no, dice fucked up the blockchain
dub:
mircea_popescu: its a previously unheard of issue with BDB, the block size triggered it
gesell:
mircea_popescu: havent no
gesell:
mircea_popescu: i cant wrap my head around how that would all play out. just assume before running any bot one would make comfortable limits, and some way to guage when things are getting out of control so you know when to turn off
gesell:
mircea_popescu: what do you mean by fake trades? I think on btc24, unlike mtgox, if you buy your fiat gets locked and you cant make another order. same on sell. of course their own local bots could fake, but i could not prove this. and actually they wouldnt have to fake, if all they really want to do is some moderate protection from arbitrage
mpexbot:
mircea_popescu: No new messages received.
gesell:
mircea_popescu: not sure. i think i just dont explain abstract thoughts well.
smickles:
mircea_popescu: that mpex gui i'm developing is nearly functionally complete
pigeons: basically,
mircea_popescu does not care how it "feels"
gesell:
mircea_popescu: hobby web dev for aesthetics. serious code and hardware hacker for the $
gesell:
mircea_popescu: for lack of a better comparison... say for instance that some brokerage firm was had their own interface to nyse showing trades and tickers. this would "feel" decoupled from the excchange itself so people would not associate the two. if nyse decided to change how they present themselves that brokerage face would not be percieved as, i dont know, a quick crutch to fill the gap. where as when it is mirroring nyse so closely
gesell:
mircea_popescu: well its also strange that the proxy seems to be a mirror. as apposed to it being it's own form of interface.
gesell:
mircea_popescu: it's the face. but is interesting to contemplate what that means and reshaping it.
gesell:
mircea_popescu: are those feeds not effected by the ddos?
gesell:
mircea_popescu: not in bit. checking again
gesell:
mircea_popescu: well i would be happy to make some spreadsheets to pull the order books but this would require some sort of mpex api (json or xml or whatever) for that and again, leave you open to ddos. but if you pushed the data onto your own public spreadsheet you would avoid any ddos on your public facing graphs and orderbooks
gesell:
mircea_popescu: why not use google spreadsheets for graphs and orderbook review?
FabianB:
mircea_popescu: it's just the conversation of MPEx.rb with the irc bots, not of this channel
FabianB:
mircea_popescu: also proxy discovery included now :)
gesell:
mircea_popescu: yes mail is but using google as a trusted host gate, not sure
gesell:
mircea_popescu: thanks for the link
jcpham:
mircea_popescu when does rota get paid
jurov:
mircea_popescu, pretty much. except keys and such
gesell:
mircea_popescu: the questions are natural for investors. and also natural to want more details...
gesell:
mircea_popescu: proxy is fine. just curious the logic. seems that loosing the face of mpex (which the web presense is part of) would make some question
jcpham: that's not good enough
mircea_popescu jurov:
mircea_popescu perhaps not fully in this situation
smickles:
mircea_popescu: do you recall what was in that bag?
MJR_:
mircea_popescu: what was the bond interest rate last month?
