that stuff SEP (Somebody Else's Problem)

The Great Robocoin Rip-off: How we lost $25,000 buying a Robocoin ATM
Vexual: those hackerspace coincollecting
thermal printing $100
things would be much better in a pub
Vexual: but i
think real atms had
that
too
punkman: "There's a working Robocoin ATM at Hacker Dojo in Mountain View, CA. Nobody uses it. Nor should
they. 15% bid/ask spread, 5% fee."
punkman: or you could do it
through a gloryhole
thickasthieves: <+punkman> I
think for $25k
they could have hired a dude
to sit
there with a laptop. - yknow
this is a great point
bounce: sit
there
themselves and badger
the vendors whenever it's quiet.
punkman: I
think for $25k
they could have hired a dude
to sit
there with a laptop.
bounce: ``In London Fields by Martin Amis, while smelling a wad of used fifties, foil Guy Clinch observes
that, "Pecunia non olet was dead wrong. Pecunia olet."'' (wikipedia) --
thus we see
the folly of paper money.
Vexual: you
this 80mm cd just has a generic usb driver
punkman: "Unfortunately, Robocoin is built on Windows XP and a complete nightmare
to configure. First,
the ID scanner doesn’t work.
Then
the webcam keeps going black.
Then
the palm scanner refuses
to work"
cazalla: well who would hold a venue for
them months on end with no income

Vexual: whats
that a more refined version of storung your 3d nudes in
the cloud?
Adlai: it's a shame
that i couldn't stay
there a bit longer, it was a great job and still left me
time free
to work on scalpl
Vexual: excuse
the interjection, but for
the love of god>>> xinxi:cazalla university of melbourne and ANU, which one is better?>>> ANU
Adlai: no relation
to
that.
Adlai: "when all you've got is a hammer, everything starts
to look like a nail"
type
thinking?
mircea_popescu: it was written in either algol or cobol i forget, and was supposed
to be a big deal for rich hippies in
the 70s
mircea_popescu: there was
this first pass of algoreism, "golf club" patternism and all
the rest of
the retardation
Adlai: what "limits
to growth" retardation?
Adlai: no, dynamo is a scripting engine for vasari/revit (BIM
tools aka CAD for architects/engineers), shapeshifter is a generative modeling library for making
things like [photo incoming...]
mircea_popescu: you're not old enough
to be
talking of
that "limits
to growth" retardation
Adlai: essentially, got paid
to learn C++ and C#. not
things i'd like
to use in new projects, but still good
tools
to have
mircea_popescu: a discussion of casts is entirely spurious.
the problem's
the approach.
Adlai would probably not get invited into
the operating
theatre just for walking around outside
the hospital with an anatomy coloring book
mircea_popescu: guy in
the hospital. adlai
talks
to doctor :
this dude should get casts. casts are cool. doctor
to adlai : did you see his xrays ? adlai umm... no. but casts are cool.
Adlai: are what supposed
to work just like how?
mircea_popescu: are
they supposed
to work just like
that, in principle, don't even need
to know what you're suggesting about or anything ?
mircea_popescu: i'm not. i'm instead kloinking you over
the head for
the add-water-and-stir suggestion dust you got.
Adlai: you probably were. i can shut up if
that's what you're asking me
to do.
mircea_popescu: wasn't i reading a bevy of suggestions from you above
tho ?
Adlai: so if i mention stuff
that's already done, please just point it out
Adlai: not really, i'm only familiar with qntra et al for what,
three days?
Adlai: you could also auction qntra credits
through a centralized system,
that aspect of my suggestion isn't dependent upon decentralized issuance
Adlai: i'm far from convinced
they're good for anything, but
the only way
to really know is by watching
them break under stress/attacks
Adlai: don't have
too much interesting
to say about it, i'd rather discuss decentralized assets
Adlai: i dealt mostly with making data accessible for my boss, so he could perform
the actual analysis
Adlai: custom stack handrolled from google bigquery and excel glued
together with mutant python scripst
Adlai refuses
to work even-numbered hours
Adlai: playscape has been burning VC money for years and downsized 33%, autodesk
terminated my employment due
to "being unable
to accomodate working from home or at odd hours"
mircea_popescu: too lazy
to dig, but how diod
they end ? acquihire ? simple burnout ?
Adlai: (the companies issuing and accepting
the
tokens are forced
to act as market makers)
Adlai: mircea_popescu: your article mainly addresses problems with decentralized security systems as a replacement for high-frequency exchanges. i
think it's still possible
to issue
tokens such as readership credits (or movie
tickets, etc) in
this fashion, since
their market is a lot less dependant upon dedicated market makers
mircea_popescu: nobody particularly cares if you stay or go, but people wil get pretty aggravated by
this sort of pr/party line approach.
the reason
this is a cool forum is exactly not allowing
that sorta crap.
mircea_popescu: mpmcsweeney: my name is Stan Higgins - Im heavily involvd in our newsroom and I can safely say we accept no payment of any kind from companies <<
that's bs, you know it, i know it, why even bother with it ?
assbot: Why I nixed p2p, colored coins and all
that jazz pe
Trilema - Un blog de Mircea Popescu.
mircea_popescu: <cazalla> Monthly Bandwidth
Transfer 21.68 GB / 48.83 GB, first day on new host, "we're gonna need a bigger boat" <<
that was at some point
the counter ran
thickasthieves: <+Apocalyptic>
thickasthieves, I guess you can remove "- Vote for ATC
to be listed at MintPal.com!" from
therealaltcoin.org /// done. removed
the hitbtc one
too
Adlai: guess who isn't going
to work
today?
Adlai: holy shit, intersection right outside my door is flooded up
to
the windshields of private cars
Apocalyptic: thickasthieves, I guess you can remove "- Vote for ATC
to be listed at MintPal.com!" from
therealaltcoin.org
decimation: asciilifeform: yeah I
think your solution is definitely better
than
the $5k machine I linked. I doubt anyone makes something like it, and if
they did it wouldn't be cheap
mpmcsweeney: and its good
to meet others who share
that enthusiasm :D
mpmcsweeney: I dunno, I do
this for story
telling, its a good industry
mpmcsweeney: I guess my point is
that
there's honestly no influence
to our reporting, at least as far as I as a reporter and editor can
tell -- and Im intimately involved in
the process
BingoBoingo: mpmcsweeney:
There's just
things people who came here before coindesk was worry about
