mircea_popescu: and
they BOTH did it, hurray for us-style "competition" ==== "industry best practices"
mircea_popescu: basically
they picked a solution
that fell out of
the fail
tree and hit every branch down
mircea_popescu: brothel1 : if you fail
to spend in 10 minutes,
there's a surcharge. brothel2 : if you fail
to spend in 3 days,
there's a... nevermind.
mircea_popescu: and supposedly
these
things hire engineers and have ceos and market value. psssssst
kakobrekla: too complicated for _people_, better
to
take
the exchange risk for a few min
mircea_popescu: then you can just send 1 even for a .75 invoice if you absolutely must have it filled, and
take .2whatever in change when it happens
mircea_popescu: "here is
the address
to pay
to. if you pay in
the next 10 minutes, you need
to pay
this much. if you don't and
the price moves in your favour expect change in your originating address ; if it moves against you expect a new invoice generated for
the difference"
kakobrekla: well, its hard
to pay for 90% of
the car
decimation: asciilifeform: I suspect nearly all brands have such controllers,
the fun part is learning how
to access backdoor
mircea_popescu: kakobrekla
the implication being
that what exactly ? your weight is
their fiat.
kakobrekla: dunno why
that needs
to be pointed out.
kakobrekla: <mircea_popescu> but i mean, bitbet works just fine without expiring addresses < cause bb has
to do with fiat as much as well.. with fiat.
decimation: asciilifeform: yeah if one is going
to play with uC on a usb stick, might as well hack a usb storage card use
the controller, because cheap
chalbersma: mp I'll
take a look at it but I'm not entirely sure how
to do it. I'll have
to read more into
the procedure of generating
that coinbase.
decimation: all
that being said it looks like a fun little
toy
decimation: also if you are using an adc you are going
to want careful signal separation and shielding like asciilifeform implied.
decimation: diametric: I agree with asciilifeform re:
that FST-01 device for
TRNG -
there are just
too many potential gotchas with a low-quality ADC, why bother when a much simpler circuit would suffice?
mircea_popescu: it's nice supporting foss authors and everything, but i doubt
the guy can or would spend atc.
mircea_popescu: chalbersma suppose you just re-write it so it gives
that
to
the highest ranking address.
chalbersma: It gives
the donation address a satoshi and any leftover satoshi's after dividing between
the active shares
to
that address
too.
mircea_popescu: yet
there's a whole collection of reddit wailers derping about how bitbet is a scam and
ty bitpay for having fixed your X error
that cost me my business you're such a great company.
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: Craetes room for
them
to be scammy fucks
mircea_popescu: someone has
to explain
to me why both coinbase (10 minute) and bitpay (15 minute) use
this idiotic "expiring invoice" model.
chalbersma: mp. I've been looking at
the bit
that donation
transaction
that generates
the donation
to forrestv's address. I've found one alternative p2pool implementation
that had a different coinbase script but I'm not sure how
to generate it. I'll have
to look more into it
tomorrow.
mircea_popescu: it is difficult
to store, because if air gets
to it
they make phosgene and hcl ; however it can be
trivially washed in a solution of baking soda, which removes
the decomposition products safely.
mircea_popescu: by
the way : chloroform can be
trivially manufactured out of either acetone (nail polish remover) or ethanol
through addition of chlorine bleach.
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: You sold all of
the cock cages
nubbins`: yeah, PR wrote a
tell-all book
BingoBoingo: Wait, now we know how MP retired
the first
time with all
the money.
mircea_popescu: actually a lot of men get off on not getting
to get off frequently
Diablo-D3: everyone should know what
they get off
to, and get off
to it frequently
mircea_popescu: anywhere between all and each and every last one of
them.
DiabloD3: there are many women who get off on men with power, and it is not our right as a society on who is allowed
to get off on what (outside of bestiality and pedophilia and catholics
DiabloD3: so
to
tell me women aren't willing participants in
the whole office
thing is bullshit
DiabloD3: the upper brass would just shut
that whole
thing down
ben_vulpes: they know we're saying
the same
thing.
ben_vulpes: mircea_popescu:
that's
the point of using "poorly engineered"
DiabloD3: before all
this fucking "women's rights" shit ruined it for everybody
ben_vulpes: yeah but only when
the contractors arent around
mircea_popescu: generally, whenever someone complains whatever
they complain about should be replaced by something
that's about a degree of magnitude more likely
to bother
them personally.
DiabloD3: Im
thinking, like,
the 50s style office maidens
mircea_popescu: seems
to me "female" is a good substitution for "retarded" for
the company of females
that
think retarded's retarded.
ben_vulpes: so
to pique
them we now say "poorly engineered"
ben_vulpes: the office brides have asserted
that "retarded" is not okay
ben_vulpes: what is
this reference mircea_popescu ?
ben_vulpes: <ThickAsThieves> we're waiting
to
take off and
they are milking me? << lol you should hear lady v on
the
topic
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform i srsly never met a us born/bred woman
that had
trouble with good chocolate.
assbot: Logged on 20-07-2014 08:41:26; mircea_popescu: maybe i visit after
the fall. play fallout in new reno irl or some4thing.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform us "belgian" chocolates are pretty awful
too.
mircea_popescu: why not go
the other way wtf is with
this puritan hate of pleasure and enjoyment for crying out loud.
BingoBoingo: McDonalds Food, but in a venue purporting
to be a restaurant
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: Fast Food, but
they make you wait for it.
mircea_popescu: "TGI Friday's (often shortened
to "Friday's" in most countries, previously stylized as "T.G.I. Friday's", and stylized "FRiDAY'S", or "T.G.I.s" in Ireland and
the United Kingdom) is an American restaurant chain focusing on casual dining."
mircea_popescu: a bucket list being
the list of
things
the assholes in question were hoping
to do before i got
to
them.
assbot: BitBet - BTC
