jurov: mp's thinking is too branched out, i often lose the point even if he tries to compensate using strong language
mike_c: yes. nice to have more examples of companies that have done it successfully.
chetty: lot of good stuff in that article, but then it is pretty much what mp has been saying for ages
mike_c: great article. chetty, do you have a wiki account? if not I can throw it up on http://wiki.bitcoin-assets.com/governments_and_regulation
chetty: Furthermore, companies shouldn’t ask a lawyer. Expecting a lawyer to find a loophole in the law and to state it on paper simply won’t happen.

fluffypony: yeah, the Bitcoin Foundation loves me
bitcoinpete: not even the various and sundry foundations
pankkake: I guess that's why I hate everyone
pankkake: you get snubbed because they don't talk about you?
bitcoinpete: kinda lulzy, after making the theme of our upcoming local meet-up "burying the foundations," i was accused of not liking them because I was "snubbed" by an irrelevant press release i'd never read.
bitcoinpete: now, we see if he takes my free bitcoin so i can collect mircea_popescu's bounty!

BingoBoingo: TomServo: The thing starts in an hour. Just now learned about it.
TomServo: BingoBoingo: Thanks for the heads up, looks interesting.
Apocalyptic: anyway I believe it was Azelphur that noticed the weird rounding of the streamed data
davout: but i guess that would explain their rounding practices
davout: Apocalyptic: probably in the same way there exist dogs that can count to 4
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: Of course. Even since before the pound sterling ceased to represent the material good behind the name.
Apocalyptic: <davout> if it touches anything javascript-y it can't be anything else than a shitty float // I heard JS had some Decimal object
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo, in fiat too.
davout: if it touches anything javascript-y it can't be anything else than a shitty float
Apocalyptic: are usually a tell-tale of float
davout: no, what i'm trying to tell you is that it might simply be cast to float at some point after the data gets out from the engine
Apocalyptic: I may try to find the logs re that
Apocalyptic: (i haven't done the actual study)
davout: not sure you can draw conclusions from there
Apocalyptic: davout, some streaming data from the pusher app
davout: "afaik bitstamp works with floats" <<< what makes you say that ?
davout: well, that's if you assume that having slightly more than what you should have isn't ok
Apocalyptic: I guess, but that would flag any engine rounding defficiency or such
davout: depends how they implemented it
mike_c: my beach reading was warren buffet's letters to shareholders from 1965-1991. So now I know 50% of everything.
Apocalyptic: <davout> [17:34:45] it's more that he didn't check for the presence of negative balances // that's still not enough, you have to make sure total = current + in orders for each account
mike_c: hello. i am back from the beach.
punkman: must be that "proactive compliance" thing
mircea_popescu: this worked exceedingly well in the case of mtgox too.
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo, you don't understand, bitstamp is trying to reassure people that the reason they can't withdraw isn't the obvious one.
BingoBoingo: The immediate problem for Bitstamp users before even looking at balances is the colonoscopy required for withdrawals though.
mircea_popescu: <punkman> what a whiny little twerp << pretty much the consensus among humans.
TomServo: Is this the equivalent of the "Roger Ver investigates MtGox" video?
davout: it's more that he didn't check for the presence of negative balances
davout: We ran a SQL SELECT SUM(btc_balance) query on the user_profiles table to determine the total outstanding balances.
mircea_popescu: !up tokyopotato
pankkake: I believe it will be fixed in the newer releases
pankkake: it fetches only from one node at a time
