ThickAsThieves: "BitAngels,
the angel investment group which was helping out with
the crowdsale, expected mastercoins
to comprise no more
than 25% of
the overall investment. Instead, Lambert explained,
they ended up making up roughly half of
the investment
total."
ThickAsThieves: "All you do is plug it into a printer's USB port, and
the device uses specialized hardware
to create a random number with 256-bits of entropy."
ThickAsThieves: could work out
this round for people, since
the money may have been spent when BTC was worth %800+
davout: ThickAsThieves: yeah, when i
take
the chart of currently available hardware and do
the math against
their cost (disregarding $/kwh) $1mn/PH is
the lowest i get
gribble: Bitstamp BTCUSD

ThickAsThieves: altough
the costs
to set
that much gear up and run it for a bit would surely add up fast
davout: ThickAsThieves: i see, i'm not really
trying
to be very precise here, just a ballpark estimate for
the recent ~47PH/s increase
ThickAsThieves: 1PH would surely be cheaper if you contacted
them
to make arrangements
ThickAsThieves: i imagine it'd be hard
to just buy 1PH, everyone does preorders, isnt Rockminer selling units for ASICMINER around now?
davout: closest i can
think of is
take
the current best rig
that actually sells and use
that as basis
davout: still wondering how i could get
the closest
to reality when calculating how much it'd cost
to bring an extra PH/s
to
the network
jurov: S.WOL added
to coinbr
davout: pankkake: what's your best way
to estimate?
davout: thanks, i want
to do a rough back of
the envelope estimate of what kind of investment
the recent diff increases imply
davout: or
to state
the question a bit differently, what's
the current market price of mining power?
davout: what's currently
the best non-scam mining rig one can buy
these days ?
davout: pankkake: i don't see no

xmj: I wonder, how do you heat
the
truck version.
punkman: xmj, dunno maybe 10-20kg in small portable mixer, more if you get
the
truck version :P
xmj: punkman: how many kg are we
talking?
punkman: fun
tip: if you have a shitload of octopus, cement mixer is a good way
to
tenderize
them
mircea_popescu: mkay, in sum :
this problem is an artefact of using butter knife
to mix concrete rather
than any problem of
the concrete.
mircea_popescu: (not
that you couldn't call getdents by yourself bypassing
the 16kb buffer or whatever fucktarded limit readdir does)
punkman: dunno what
that is, but it's reading all
the entries in a dir
that's slow
punkman: mircea_popescu:
too many inodes makes ls quite slow
benkay: 40k iirc, and it was on a shitty cloud drive
to boot.
mircea_popescu: unless
the drive is shitty and unraided
that shouldn't really happen. besides, you shouldn't have
the kernel volume shared with userspace anyway.
benkay: apropos of
the bash bombs discussed earlier, my favorite part about computanium is how ls'ing in a directory with lots of
things will cripple a server
benkay: mircea_popescu: mebbe later - in
the meantime i'm enjoying
the luxury of going
to sleep at midnightish
mircea_popescu: <benkay> mircea_popescu, mike_c: cool stuff <<< :D
try it out!
punkman: BingoBoingo: OMG No pool hoppers. << actually
there's an extra
TH on coinminer
punkman can't wait for MP's Naked Chess
Tournament
mircea_popescu: <bitcoinpete>
that'd definitely cut down on
the spammy number of
the wc/other sport bets << yeah.
punkman: "regarding décolletés (in
the US "cleavage"): "the second from
the
top button may be opened." And skirts may be no shorter
than 5-10 cm above
the knees"

bitcoinpete: if mp had created a rolland garros bet for every single player + halep it would've been
the same problem
bitcoinpete: the problem with
the wc is simply
the number of
teams
bitcoinpete: that'd definitely cut down on
the spammy number of
the wc/other sport bets
bitcoinpete: so
the world cup experiment was fruitful, if costly
bitcoinpete: fluffypony: likes reddit. maybe he'll volunteer
to coral 'em
mircea_popescu: i need someone
to herd
the naked girls for bitcoin subreddit for me
bitcoinpete: titcoins
thinks
there's a market for butts AND
tits
bitcoinpete: not
that btcjam had any reputation
to speak of here, just
that
the word is getting out
bitcoinpete: i've been getting
twitter spammed all day over btcjam doing what btcjam does
peterl: not
that I would know, I
try
to avoid it
bitcoinpete: kakobrekla: bitcoinpete did like 30% in less
than an hour ? <<
take
that buffett ;)
mircea_popescu: Vexual> neato, I like how
there isn't an eplilepsy warning << lmao
gribble: Error:
That's all,
there is no more.
Vexual: neato, I like how
there isn't an eplilepsy warning
TomServo: Is
there a
target date for
the grand opening?
TheNewDeal: most definitely. I
think it will appeal
to
the btc crowd
TheNewDeal: and GoL would
turn into a minigame or something
TheNewDeal: just confused me with
the name Game of Week,
thought
there might be a
totally different game next week
TheNewDeal: what I'm wondering is
this. How many 1000 block games will be played?
mike_c: yeah. game 8 on left/top is last week's game. below
that, game 10, is next week's game.
assbot: War of Life - Cellular automaton
to
the death!
mircea_popescu: <TheNewDeal> seems like a very advanced way
to... lose money << bout 1%.
mike_c: home page on
the left is a link
to next week's game
mike_c: Game of
the Week restarts every 1000 blocks
TheNewDeal: I'm wondering if
the Game of Life just restarts every "week", or if some other cellular automata game will replace it
TheNewDeal: I'm not worried about
the price of ATC, already checked up on
that
mike_c: easiest way
to get into is
to
try it. ATC are cheap.
TheNewDeal: what happens
to GoW once 1000 blocks are
through?
Turns into a Mini Game?
TheNewDeal: should pay someone
to put up some signs at MIT advertising
this WoL
mike_c: but i will link
that line
too. good feedback.
TheNewDeal: Watch some of
the old games
to get a feel for
things, and
then dive in!
TheNewDeal: looking for previous games
though, can't find
them
TheNewDeal: seems like a very advanced way
to... lose money
mircea_popescu: well people can just pm you. with
the voice rules, it';s unlikely anyone can bother anything
mike_c: if channel so desires. didn't want
to impose without asking.
