mircea_popescu: by now this shit's roughly as complex as counterparty trade on any prop desk in london
mircea_popescu: but inasmuch as both you and your referrer get 5 btc, it could be argued the new account only costs 20 with a referrer. anyway.
theo: I don't have an opinion as of yet and am asking questions from those who seem to be knowledgeable
theo: But right now i am not sure as i am still researching
theo: Well to be honest i don't think he has done amazingly well what with the securities options someone in a post said that he had to pay out pretty much his whole years profits as people bet on the rising price and he had to pay / she
theo: jurov i think thats a bit backwards as they do have standards. Otherwise they would have a fuck load more IPO as they reject a lot as well.
theo: Yawn. I came on here looking for good info and maybe a nice convo, all your providing is arguments and yes you did make a "jab" Now we are arguing semantics for no reason. I asked your's / anyone elses advice on havelock and MPEX and all i got was a hey you should use my company as thats a hefty fee
theo: I used the IPO of SFI as reasoning and side noted that there companies had recieved mass media.
theo: I didn't use that as any reasoning idiot read back
jurov: i took that almost as joke
theo: that to me is a jab at me, and many would take it as such
theo: in the end i am a mid-long term investment. Dont usually have time for short term trading as i have a family
theo: Well currently i am quiet happy with havelock the only thing is that they don't have a large selection to choose from, well at least a large selection i believe could do well as buisness
theo: yeh i have already seen that site with the referall and manuals. Tis what got me more interested in MPEX Though i am not sure that they really offer anything i would invest into other then the derivatives scheme they offer as a baseline
theo: coinbr is that the company that lets you trade on them through them as a proxie? and only charges a fee
theo: Alright thank's i have been looking at it as an option to trade on, just hesitent as 25 BTC is not so smaller investment nowdays
Namworld: But as far as business goes, it's been solid.
theo: this is my favorite band at the moment (though i am bias as its one of my best friends band)
theo: Yeah the build up and just the lyrics "the hands of the many must join as one. and Together we will cross the river"
theo: KRS-one: they really are, i am amazed they haven't gained the famity of Tool as of yet. But time will tell. Got to see them live last year best experience ever
KRS-One: so like my nephew has huge email list he wants to use as email addresses for submitting forms to some websites-he says i would need thousands of ip addresses and spoofed browser info so the servers dont get filtered/banned, wants it to look legit. he says we just gotta repopulate the email address and automate the click process..
mircea_popescu: the people responsible very much going around talking about things as if.
mircea_popescu: as not all people can smell it.
mircea_popescu: fun fact : mercaptane actually is a natural byproduct of asparagus digestion in mammals. for a long time people imagined the ability to excrete it in urine is genetically dependent, as apparently not all people did it.
jurov: Jere_Jones use this as escrow: bitbet.us/bet/751/mtgox-out-of-business-in-2014/?ref=1EteoRKNYbNhhmFfsKnUSWRF3JUpKCcMnc
mircea_popescu: hopefully more of that stuff can go in as more of your profession start being available for the corps to do the stuff.
benkay: ah, sorry? as in taking the burn for not spending btc at the right time?
mircea_popescu: moreover, an important point to be considered is that the real assets of btc corps act as an absolutel bottom in the btc exchange.
Jere_Jones: I'm looking to swap some real btc for gox btc as I believe that, eventually, I will be able to withdrawl.
benkay: nasty mining is still a thing, innit? can't say as I've gotten much past april 2012
mircea_popescu: a sort of kraken of 2012 as it turns out.
mircea_popescu: pmbs were generally recognised to be dog turds back then about to the degree hearn is recognised as a dog turd today.
mircea_popescu: very disruptive, especially as nobody readily imagined such a thing can even exist.
mircea_popescu: any of this in proper form (ie, as pgp signed ?)
nubbins`: humidity as well
B007: which doesn't flucuate as much
nubbins`: not as fun as mixing metric and imperial units, but hey
benkay: i'm thinking sample frequency as indicator, nubbins`
herbijudlestoids: this channel is as bad for my sleep habits as GTA5 was
ThickAsThieves: solve the problems independently, as in
ThickAsThieves: as far as the wot distribution problem, i think i have an idea, outside services that integrate with it
herbijudlestoids: i mean as a method of distributing the WoT
herbijudlestoids: but only gribble is the arbiter for WoT right? like gribble connects to same backend as -otc website?
asciilifeform: the wot as we have it now is perfectly sybil-able
mircea_popescu: the only thing is... it has to be done well, as opposed to just done so someone can go to conferences herpderping about 3d printed wots
mircea_popescu: that's ambiguous. do you mean as in otaku or do you mean as in, still being underage.
mircea_popescu: it's almost as if they have no business training at all.
mircea_popescu: jesus. so i go check trilema awstats. i find out that TO THIS DAY my 2nd most read article is a 2012 romanian language guide for women as to how you suck cock.
ThickAsThieves: start selling as necessary to business
mircea_popescu: what the fuck, are we stupid or something ? been using this thing for years, i promote it as the solution, something;'s missing ?
ThickAsThieves: as usual
herbijudlestoids: ThickAsThieves: i was thinking of something like that, maybe you can model existing WoTs as nodes in the graph
herbijudlestoids: *you*, mp, not you as in the hypothetical you
ThickAsThieves: what i want is basically like a openID or sign in with Facebook kinda thing but as a WoT
herbijudlestoids: yea i get that feeling as well
herbijudlestoids: sans? as in without?
herbijudlestoids: i was thinking it would be interesting to throw small increments of gold up as offers and see if any takers
herbijudlestoids: benkay: the way i figure is iv already missed the initial wealth transfer...so why bother? if BTC takes over, i will be able to sell my human capital in BTC just as i now sell it in AUD
herbijudlestoids: im very rarely a daytrader. i trade almost entirely EOD and dont like to keep turnover as low as possible for tax considerations
benkay: okay, so how do we get from that graph to "that vol spike would be very hard to handle as a trade"?
benkay: would you be so kind as to explain a little?
herbijudlestoids: benkay: that vol spike would be very hard to handle as a trade
herbijudlestoids: volatility on MPOE, http://imgur.com/MixUdTD ...otherwise known as "why intraday mean reversion is probably not safe"
herbijudlestoids: this isnt the exact one i saw, but yea, sold as new http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/Prospero-X-1-100Gh-s-Bitcoin-Mining-ASIC-Miner-New-In-Box-/111270548942?pt=AU_Components&hash=item19e83dd5ce
herbijudlestoids: ah, as in difficulty rising faster than expected will mean it cant ROI? i guess so, the calculation i used assumed 50% increase/month in difficulty
herbijudlestoids: that is the plan, weve had a few buyout offers already but have to keep pushing them back as we grow
benkay: virtualization as a service?
benkay`: as in someone drops it at your residence
Perlboy: cause there's conjecture as to whether the bitcointalk thread actually understands correctly
ThickAsThieves: In Buddhism, alms or almsgiving is the respect given by a lay Buddhist to a Buddhist monk, nun, spiritually-developed person or other sentient being. It is not charity as presumed by Western interpreters. It is closer to a symbolic connection to the spiritual realm and to show humbleness and respect in the presence of the secular society.
chipug: i'd be as well using a calculator than this laptop mircea_popescu lol
mircea_popescu: makes about as much sense as the goverment on a good day.
chipug: a gathering as opposed to a party then lol exciting all the same
mircea_popescu: b0n1 you don't have to anything. you've made a claim as to having been an old timer. if you want that taken seriously you'll have to offer some corroboration.
Duffer1: idiocy and coincidence are certainly options as well
mircea_popescu: <b0n1> I am one of the early adopters as you all are, but 10 btc for a meeting? << what have you done ?
b0n1: 2. I go as VIP
jurov: just register as non-vip, the hotel rooms and meals are not very expensive
jurov: b0n1: afaik you can come as non-vip, you'll pay everything yourself
b0n1: I am one of the early adopters as you all are, but 10 btc for a meeting?
mircea_popescu: ;;later tell thickasthieves see, you may be 12 and have no idea what you're doing, but at least you don't fail quite as bad as max keiser :D
mircea_popescu: ;;later see thickasthieves, you may be 12 and have no idea what you're doing, but at least you don't fail quite as bad as max keiser :D
mod6: ;;later tell nanotube i want to buy 500 btc from you at 0.25, as per your outstanding offer. << this comment from the OTC wiki lol
BingoBoingo: KRS-One: If you have farm raised sharks with certifiably low mercury levels, I am pretty sure there are worth much more as food than guards
theo__: Or better yet a satellite system that has lasers built in to act as a defense over the earth creating a overlaying network of defense?
BingoBoingo: I was acquainted with someone who worked on an unclassifed project about as useful as missile defense. Essentialy the device was a hair drier large enough to accomodate a 747, because anthrax
asciilifeform: no one even tangentially involved with u.s. mil. work has any real doubt as to the actual purpose of 'missile defense' crap.
mircea_popescu: the missile is going about 10x as fast as your bullets.
BingoBoingo: the20year: The problem with the F-22 as a universal fighter jet is it is too big for an aircraft carrier. (Apparently noone considered making the smaller version)
asciilifeform: or boat. great lakes, as suggested by V. N. Chelomey.
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: At the current rate it looks like the F-35 takes the cake. Does nothing well as an airplane, because the Marine corps insists they need a fighter jet that works like a helicopter
mircea_popescu: tracking missiles from a satellite isn't quite as trivial as all that.
theo__: Perfect, the only thing i could see with being the problem is, do the top 5 share holders want a say in the company as in being a director as i think a lot of the investors (especially early IPO) would of just been using it to invest there BTC into real world without the proper understandings to be able to help run something such as this
the20year: Or maybe a 5 top shareholders + 5 shareholders as voted by the body
theo__: the20year, i think stay away from mpex as well. Not user friendly unless high level computer user, and i personally believe its tied into a giant drug laundering scheme
the20year: As it is right now, i have control and can do essentially what I want, but as I had stated in the past , i want to do like a board of directors type of thing
theo__: ok, and is each share = to 1 vote in the company? so at the end of the day with you retaining 60% stock you always have the winning vote? or will you have your's as a vote of absence and decided only in deadlock?
Duffer1: the panama fund is shady as fuck
theo__: So the new company who owns havelock you haven't had any problems with? as this was something i noted on the bitcointalk.org forum that people were complaing / being weary of
theo__: Can i ask a bit deeper as in are you currently still working outside of this company?
