artifexd: Does anyone else read !up and !down
as "not up" and "not down"?
dignork: "no such thing
as taint" ?
dignork: fluffypony, you can, but then you'll have to treat your wallet
as non-deterministic
BingoBoingo: I like the Multibit interface more for handling multiple wallet, but I'm liking Electrum more and more
as I play with it. I just wish there was a good solution for handling both Deterministic and random generation wallets.
fluffypony: benkay: not for mining, just
as a spare electrum server
BingoBoingo: Really this is just the case of doing something already know yet forgotten and presenting it
as a new scoop.
thestringpuller: mircea_popescu: "If I believe at any point there is value or use in them I can just… take… them. If experience is any guide, I shall take them the next day" << do you reccommend that
as a general strategy?
mircea_popescu: even things the russians mistake for "slav spirit" are about
as chinese
as it can be.
benkay: everything oscillates. there is no such thing
as steady state in natural systems.
bounce: interesting to see the differences.
as an up-and-coming empire they're occasionally serious about appearing to be a functional government (
as well
as not that respectful of human life; they feel they have too many people running around already), where the US, er, works a bit differently.
mircea_popescu: "The magazine couldn’t afford moderators,
as many news organizations can’t." herp.
bounce: you really need no "sniper" people (or just people with a fork lift driving into a high voltage mast,
as happened elsewhere) for an unstable grid. politicians will do just fine.
kakobrekla: >API calls are returning a captcha page. Regular visits to the site do so
as well, but unlike me, my bot is unable to solve the captcha on its own.
dexX7: probably not
as shiny
jurov:
as in, the dildo must actually be used when signing the tx?
mircea_popescu: "I'll be making money in the form of a small percentage of grid income, since I will establish myself
as an active and effective grid owner of one of the most advanced grids out there. Maybe I'll also have a few DA's that are easily supported by the Bitcloud platform, too."
BingoBoingo: If only Waco was pronounced
as a homophone for Whacko
danielpbarron: no, the people there are pretty much the same
as anywhere else
BingoBoingo: I'm just thinking that this thing started with one dude and cows
as opposed to an entire group of dudes.
mircea_popescu: inasmuch
as i've run 90%+ of all option volume on btc/usd i nthe history of btc, i would say yes.
mircea_popescu: los_pantalones i was hoping for something more along the lines of a set of numeric examples, or in any sense some math analysis. opinion based we've had already, such
as for instance :
los_pantalones: i started a math optimization
as well, prob best not to share that though
bounce: notice how you can s/hacker/boogieman/ and you'd make about
as much sense. in fact, you'd be more honest.
bounce: could be a TLAgency front. then again, why go through all the trouble? might
as well set up one anew.
TestingUnoDosTre: showed up for me
as well, after I viewed at least one of your articles
artifexd: urthermore, putting bitcoins on your phone is probably the goddamn stupidest thing that I've ever heard of. Bitcoins are going to be the world's reserve currency4, and
as such fated to rise to prices per coin that dwarf even the outlandish Winklevoss' most media-hungry "predictions". To leave such a precious commodity within reach of anyone with a USB cable5
benkay: baron must do his lords work or be stripped
as i understand it
artifexd: And yet, every time I talk, he gives me the time of day. When I question him, he responds reasonably. I guess that encourages me to treat him
as an equal.
artifexd: I think my (possible?) mistake is in thinking that he has access to the same information
as the rest of us (specifically, me). He may have more people to pour over it and analyze it, but the raw information is available.
benkay: not that i'd know. derpy kid
as myself.
benkay: so an entity with an intelligence arm claims a thing is true and says 'get stuffed' when you ask 'but how ams u knooooow?'. how
as a prole in -assets are you going to ever verify something the entity spent an unknown amount of money discovering?
ozbot: BitBet - Bitcoin to surpass Berkshire
as an investment
mircea_popescu: because what appears "close" is way the fuck out over there.
as in the original graph, midway. the thing's all over the place.
mircea_popescu: cgcardona_ their job was easier,
as they prolly hadn't invented the adversarial system either, so they could actually reach some sort of a decision.
mircea_popescu: cgcardona_ things degrade naturally, the same vicious circle
as exhibited by used car markets that lemon laws try to fix : any seller with above-average value is disincentivised from participating.
mircea_popescu: TestingUnoDosTre because the server bleeds memory, in principle you can decrypt their 2fa challenge
as well
as anything else.
cgcardona_: now I'm picturing sean parker
as the maitre d'.
mircea_popescu: by now they're on tap
as a "free trial" on every budged webhoster out there. gimme a break.
cgcardona_: yes I'm glad I found this room MP. the bitcoin forum is the bottom of the barrel and reddit is mostly memes and flamewars
as well. (though don't ge me wrong. I enjoy a good meme and/or flamewar)
cgcardona_:
as in 'this room isn't a room where anyone can talk about shoes. it's a room where shoe makers can talk about anything.' ?
mircea_popescu: cgcardona_ but technically it's like... "i'm in the club",
as in, "i am a barber"
mircea_popescu: aren't these a bitch to properly discharge, have to handle the tube
as itlaunches ?
mircea_popescu: if you're going to humiliate, might
as well humiliate in detail.
mircea_popescu: sure, just
as long
as the scammers pushing it own 99.99% of it all.
ThickAsThieves:
as suspected in the past, they may be satsisfying an urge to gamble, not invest
mircea_popescu: first off, you don't need fractions, you could just
as well increase the max for same effect
kanzure: so i should read this
as '10 trusts'?
benkay: can't say
as i have any intention of taking style cues from linkbait article titles.
bounce: "es leuchtet blau" -- which for some reason is not nearly
as funny in the original
benkay: well it sounds
as though he's progressed to calling /you/ a fraud. that's progress.
mircea_popescu: it's like "please don't kick us out of here, we know we don't belong, can this count
as a getoutof kicking ?"
Azelphur: fair enough then I suppose, not
as bad
as I thought, only thing that would be nice is having it automate the entire process :)
bounce: and I have no idea what google is up to now. so if you do site:example.com it'll substitute that
as it sees fit? -- getting results out of them is getting fuzzier and fuzzier so that's no surprise, but it is annoying for those cases where I really want this exact search query and not the "properly spelled" one or whatever those US-based barbarians think I should've typed
fluffypony: can we cast robwhizz22
as court jester?
pankkake: I'm thinking of hoarding tobacco,
as a doomsday currency
only: any tobacco smokers in here? I want a rating
as well :)
Apocalyptic: <Anduck> !up gribble // he's already upped...
as you are
gribble: Nick 'cgcardona_', with hostmask 'cgcardona_!~cgcardona@cpe-75-85-131-223.hawaii.res.rr.com', is identified
as user 'cgcardona_', with GPG key id 0F1225CA7384131A, key fingerprint B591A80F8DF61ACAC58C806A0F1225CA7384131A, and bitcoin address None
cgcardona_: "they will jump through all sorts of rationalizations
as to why their burn was a good idea." - couldn't you say the same thing about most people who have a vested interest in something succeeding?
benkay: do it, now you have this tiny network of people who need to see the value of their coins increase. they will jump through all sorts of rationalizations
as to why their burn was a good idea.
cgcardona_: fluffypony: more accurately if you *produce* a massive single. writers/performers get screwed
as well
fluffypony: because they keep advertising things
as "hands off"
cgcardona_: right - and satoshi's quote says "Lost coins only make everyone else's coins worth slightly more. Think of it
as a donation to everyone."
cgcardona_: ok then can I spin it
as all of the burn in coins will just remove btc from the blockchain thus driving value to the blockchain a la' "Lost coins only make everyone else's coins worth slightly more. Think of it
as a donation to everyone."
fluffypony: I also don't see what's wrong (fundamentally) with an exchange being a central point of issuance/authority/failure,
as long
as it's not built and run like mtgox or litecoininvest or whatever
benkay: fluffypony: these initial burns are just
as much a crime
as premining.
cgcardona_: i'm wondering how the alt coin scene will change w/ the arrival of mastercoin and/or colored coins and/or sidechains. If I understand correctly these will layer abstractions upon bitcoin which will use a satoshi
as a level of abstraction to represent anything (stock option, gold bar, keys to a car, deed to a house, etc). If that's the case then all that value should be driven back into the bitcoin blockchain right?
kakobrekla: robots use mankind
as computing elements come on
cedivad: they are using third parties to claim to be bankrupted (using it
as an excuse for the delay in shipping)
cedivad: and ship it
as a MPP in a few months
jurov: yea, and it strives to avoid evil ASICs but
as presumably they can't think of one, it will start with a placeholder one
jurov: such
as, turing-complete computations are bounded and paid for by "gas" allocated
bounce: ``[Erik Naggum] disliked C++, though not
as much
as he hated Perl, but he generally thought that C++ was too difficult to understand to such a degree that only about 5 people on the planet truly understood it and hence was of little value for humanity.'' (wikipedia) -- how's that for an elitist language, eh. jealous much? *gdr*
jurov: context for poor logreaders: *** [\\\\\\\\\\\\\\] is now known
as [\\\]
mircea_popescu: khersonus wanted to do options just
as the spot market is disintegrating.
mircea_popescu: the incentive to do it is actually negative. if you run a site
as a us business, and they can directly steal your data this way, they will.
mircea_popescu: well, they didn't exist in brabant
as such, nor in northern italy, nor in england
mike_c: BI is (
as usual) blowing shit out of proportion for headlines. 6 people were pissed they got evicted and made a sign. who cares.
