mircea_popescu: that's a for instance. i know enough about
the guy
to
tell you
that if you're using
the wot you're implicitly
trusting him.
gribble: You rated user nanotube on Wed Aug 3 15:08:50 2011, with a rating of 10, and supplied
these additional notes: owner of otc and all around reasonable guy.
wywialm: mircea_popescu, is
the rating of 10 appropriate
to reflect
the fact
that I operate numerisTrade account? Or should I set
the rating
to 1 not
to prop up "total
trust" (I'm aware
that
total
trust should not be
taken into account heavily, but still..)
mircea_popescu: it sounds great but you want
to have it looked at by multiple pairs of eyes.
Naphex: i will prolly document it after i have a full working example, prolly with some client front end
to demo it
Naphex: could
throw
that all in cold wallets and just do realtime processing
Naphex: then it can just derive xN payments for
that specific user while reusing addresses each
time
Naphex: you could encode pub key
to specifiy user_id on a deposit system
Naphex: mircea_popescu: regarding DNS2address resolve for bitcoin, i am setting up an updated example
that includes support for BIP32 xpub keys for address derivation
random_cat_: are
there any search engines
that work any more? :|

mircea_popescu: magistrate judges.
they aren't judges in any sense, but
they
think
they may opine on matters.
fluffypony: mircea_popescu: it's not ready for prime
timez yet
mircea_popescu: televisions are more
than 100% cheaper nao, don't you know.
mircea_popescu: ;;later
tell peterl i disagree btw. while i'm pretty sure quantum computing is
the exact equivalent of perpetuum mobile, only we don't have
the
three rules of quantum compudynamics yet, cold fusion may or may not be in
the same situation. maybe we discover something about lasers
that makes containment work, who knows.

there is no command named "peterl" in it.

Naphex: danielpbarron:
to clarify, when you do ECDSA signatures you do need 1 random integer (required
to be different) called K, but even in most bitcoin implementation it is generated deterministcally d
mircea_popescu: myeah. since 2012,
the exact sort of nonsense has been field by
the exact sort of people involved in pmbs.
bawse: so im ok with
this. others are not ok.
bawse: im just saying if my 1583gh cointerra only makes 32 or .09 in
this market, i can make $60 with .09
bawse: im only selling hashing power
through cex in
the hopes of selling 1gh for
the price of 2, hoping
the person signs up under my link so i can make 3% of what he buys in
the future. and also initially buy 1gh with
the extra $3.31 i charged. Plus PMB's are
tales of people who do not know how
to cash out BTC at $165 more
than
they are worth like I do.
jurov: ;;rate PsychoticBoy 1 one of
the first coinbr users
dub: mine
tells
the same
tale
ozbot: The problem with PMBs, ie “Perpetual Mining Bonds” pe
Trilema - Un blog de Mircea Popescu.
dub: you just invent
the PMB
danielpbarron: don't you also need cryptographically secure RNG
to do
the signing?
Naphex: the point is, you can get
the smart card
to just sign
transactions
Naphex: if you want you can do SmartOS auth before writeing a key, or just burn it down
to read only
Naphex: danielpbarron: you realize you can lock
the card down in lots of ways after
danielpbarron: if
the infected computer can just write
to
the card
Naphex: you can if you want use
the rng
to generate a priv key, but you can just as well upload one
Naphex: danielpbarron: nah
the card can sign
the
transactions
danielpbarron: i assumed
that a built-in RNG on
the card meant
that
the key was generated on
the card
Naphex: danielpbarron: if i'm bored i'd roll
the dice and upload it on
the card using a clean linux/busybox boot ;]
random_cat_: anyone know
the software (i
think meteor based) developed at MIT (i
think, maybe at cambridge) which allows for data protection against a hostile server operator?
Naphex: anyway regarding smart cards and rng, for bitcoin is not
that much worry-some cause you can just store your private key on it and use
that
to sign
the
transactions
danielpbarron: is hash-selling still a scam, or did someone figure out a way
to make
that a legit business?
bawse: Thats nice of you, I really wish you
the best and was
touched when you accepted my apology.
danielpbarron: do you mean
the individuals who should just stay in FIAT?
Naphex: normal people, who want
to use bitcoin
Naphex: still wouldn't store 10000000 bitcoins on it, but its pretty safe and secure for
the regulars
Naphex: desfire3 / rfid cards are a bit more secure imho, but
there you go
danielpbarron: i didn't realize it has a random number generator built in; I find it hard
to believe it's cryptographically secure
ThickAsThieves: "Prosper has originated more
than $1 billion in unsecured personal loans. “We will hit our second billion
this year,” Mr. Vermut said."
ThickAsThieves: "The investment –seven months after a $25-million infusion by Sequoia Capital, BlackRock and other investors—underscores a growing appetite
to fuel a fledgling but fast-growing disintermediation of conventional banking."

the once a month s.mpoe sale is in effect
mike_c: or wait a few days and I'll have a script
that you can include in

mircea_popescu: not
to do with skin color, but with
this 1500s political divide.
mircea_popescu: "I use "sign" in
the widest sense of
the definition. It is a wonderful case of an almost popular use of a very broad word in almost
the exact sense of
the scientific definition." <<
this may actuallty be
the only case where popular use actually coincides with scientific use.
mircea_popescu: you've gotten nustso socialist over
there btw. i mean wtf is
this, community service ? i wouldn't have graduated.
mircea_popescu: isn't
that a substitute punishment for poor people
that can't pay fines ?
mircea_popescu: i *think* it's based off some comment of mine from x years ago
that being an admin is being a superservant not a superuser.
cazalla: benkay: we have public safety warnings here in australia
to warn people not
to sleep on
the road
benkay: nobody can move fast enough
to save
the retarded and drug addled from
theyselves.
mircea_popescu: Still en route, police received a
third call reporting
that
the man had been struck by a vehicle.
mircea_popescu: While police were on
their way
to
the scene,
they received a call stating
that
the naked man was now doing pushups in
the street.
mircea_popescu: Portland police first received a call at 4:04 a.m. reporting a naked man was running
through
traffic near Columbia and Portsmouth Ave.
benkay: someone got run over in
this
town because
they were doing pushups in
the middle of
the street at 4 am.
bounce: then again, it'd mean campaigning. I'm not
that fond of lying
through my
teeth.
bounce now regrets not cozying up
