BingoBoingo: Poettering on Linus: "But more importantly, I'd actually put some blame on a certain circle of folks
that play a major role in kernel development, and first and foremost Linus
Torvalds himself. By many he is a considered a role model, but he is quite a bad one. If he posts words like "[specific folks] ...should be retroactively aborted. Who
the f*ck does idiotic
things like
that?"

mircea_popescu: speaking of which, "The
term "palimony" is not a legal or historical
term, but rather a colloquial portmanteau of
the words pal and alimony coined by celebrity divorce attorney Marvin Mitchelson in 1977 when his client Michelle
Triola Marvin filed an unsuccessful suit against
the actor Lee Marvin."

mircea_popescu: ie, want
to sell for 20, sell anywhere between 17 and 23.
mircea_popescu: still
the major problem will be
that while on average say it's an ideal market, 0% bias,
that average has a poisson distribution of maybe 15% each way, so any individual buyer could see a price fuzziness as close
to 30% as his luck gets.

Naphex: and
there is just
this php
tat would IPC with it using shmop lol
Naphex: punkman:
the deamon which parsesd bitcoind data dir, uses shmop as IPC
punkman: from coinspark server
thing, sounds safe "PHP compiled with
the --enable-shmop option, since
the PHP script communicates with
the compiled C process via shared memory."
dignork: Naphex: still, as far as I can see
they fail
to provide any usefull functionality besides what already done in counterparty. Impossibility
to spend/destroy assets by dumb wallet is a nice
touch, but
that's it.

that's moderately interesting. do you

dignork: mircea_popescu: bias was mentioned as part of explanation on why arbiters will act as random oracles,
thus making risk split 50/50 on buyer and seller.

the link, I will read it.

Trilema - Un blog de Mircea Popescu.
mircea_popescu: which is a matter of
the wot. lettuce find
the relevant article.
mircea_popescu: but anyway, conceptually similar
to your
thing, sure. people agreeing on a
trade and exchanging
the money and signing
the contract in a pseudonymous manner.
dionyziz: mircea_popescu:
The problem I am
trying
to solve in OpenBazaar is in particular how
two pseudonymous agents can
trust each other without knowing each other.
mircea_popescu: dionyziz it's not personal in any sense. signatures are pseudonyms for
this purpose
dionyziz: I'm familiar with
the concept of GPG-signing a personal contract.
mircea_popescu: dignork you can't have bias in a decentralized market. you will instead have volatility. bias happens in central markets like ebay deciding
to side with buyer
dignork: dionyziz: Another potential problem: decentralized arbitration will act as random oracle. If arbiters will keep bias
towards buyer, sellers will increase prices
to compensate. Bias
towards sellers will make buyers
to seek discount >= bias rate. Assuming sellers will have
to maintain
their ratings, risk will mainly be on
the seller side,
this risk will be priced in. Do you have any estimates on
the
mircea_popescu: dionyziz don't
take
things
the wrong way,
there's plenty of work
to do for people wanting
to be useful. it's just important not
to waste
the enthusiasm of youth on dead ends.
dionyziz: And
thank you for
taking
the
time
to address
these issues with us.
dionyziz: Thank you for sharing
this with me :)
dionyziz: mircea_popescu: OK, I will read
this.
thickasthieves: shit remember
that lot jutarul sold on
the forum at 5btc?
mircea_popescu: (and here's a riot, 1.2k asicminer full shares ? aka 6k btc at
the peak ? history!)
mircea_popescu: pseudonymous parties agreeing on a
trade, exchanging money and signing
the contract.
dionyziz: Can you explain why you
think it's a solved problem?
dionyziz: I don't
think it's a solved problem.
mircea_popescu: anyway :
this already exists, it's a solved problem. why are you resolving a solved problem ?
mircea_popescu: these
two are not
the same in any sense, stop using
them as synonyms.
dionyziz: The delivery is
their own problem.
dionyziz: We want
to allow people
to agree on a
trade and exchange
the money and sign
the contract in a pseudonymous manner.
dionyziz: in OpenBazaar we want
to maintain anonymity at
the point of
trade.
dionyziz: In
the same way
that cryptography isn't
trying
to solve all
the problems of security,
dionyziz: As I said, in OpenBazaar we don't
try
to solve
the problem of shipping.
brianhoffman: hey all i have
to run. very busy day but i am enjoying
the convo. i will be back.
dionyziz: thestringpuller: I live in
the EU :)
dionyziz: And I'm interested in
these ideas, but OpenBazaar is not
trying
to find solutions
there.
mircea_popescu: but yes, for
that
thin sliver where carders and snowden wanna pass along secrets,
there's something.
brianhoffman: well i’d like
to say we’re working on a decentralized drone delivery network as part of
this
dionyziz: There are ideas
to make shipping more untrackable.
