ThickAsThieves: jurov wasnt it addressed that front-running would be a fireable offense?
jurov: or i can be accused to at least
jurov: in order to extract more profit
fluffypony: "Hello. my name Ewelina S. iam from Poland. in 25 of march i make order for Terra miner 2tgh/s for 5.999$ +1.108$ shipping. I am a single mother who raises two children.I borrowed these monay from family and friends for the development of investment btc.At the moment, my financial situation has changed for the worse, and I was forced to resign from the ordered equipment.Please help me recover my money.If I lose these money i dont know what
FabianB: mircea_popescu: yeah, just that, already bought into the big ask and still wanted to have bids below
FabianB: so mpif invested after the loss?
mircea_popescu: but yeah i get it, you wanted some numbers to put in a formula
mircea_popescu: FabianB you expect panacea to lose 1.78 twice in a row ?
fluffypony: asciilifeform: it takes me a few hours to catch up when I miss stuff (including reading posted links, researching stuff I don't understand, etc.), I don't always have a few hours loose every day, and you know how it goes once you let it slip for a few days - it's easier to just skip the few days you missed
mircea_popescu: a) that was for april and b) panacea is like 20%ish of mpif
FabianB: mircea_popescu: just a funny way to make a bid order in f.mpif
ThickAsThieves: <+BingoBoingo> ThickAsThieves: Were you the buyer?
ThickAsThieves: <+BingoBoingo> ThickAsThieves: Well, that is in the statement
ThickAsThieves: <+ThickAsThieves> i interpreted it as you forcing things
ThickAsThieves: <+ThickAsThieves> well i was pretty sure the 400k ask was you
asciilifeform: fluffypony: what do you plan to get caught up in, that leaves no possibility of reading log? polar expedition?
fluffypony: asciilifeform: I don't need a digest, I have the time to parse the forum, but if I get caught up in things I can imagine I simply wouldn't have the time for it on an ongoing, daily basis
mircea_popescu: bounce who that ?
ThickAsThieves: how do classify the allowance of the practice of your fund manager soliciting trade info from others?
asciilifeform: fluffypony: have you hired someone to chew your food? why not?
mircea_popescu: ^ fluffypony on the topic of how good design begets business.
fluffypony: ThickAsThieves: so why don't we find someone who can spend 2-3 hours a day parsing the logs and making an overview/digest and putting it up, and then put that up on a paywall'd site, the proceeds of which pay their salary? ☟︎
ThickAsThieves: but back to soliciting trade info
mircea_popescu: if you mean it removes the possibility of expecting to meet the performance of professionals on the budget and investment of an amateur, yes, this is correct.
pankkake: perhaps the unexisting Trilema TL;DR should also be assets TL;DR
mircea_popescu: ThickAsThieves this is precisely why being a financial professional is... you know... a profession.
mircea_popescu: o that.
pankkake: no, just talk too much :)
mircea_popescu: i thought you hated the +m originally >D
mircea_popescu: so wait, we're letting TOO MANY people talk ?
ThickAsThieves: and that not all info here is relevant
kakobrekla: mircea_popescu he means too many people have voice
asciilifeform: 'what do you mean i have to dip them!'
ThickAsThieves: having to parse this log all day is relatively shitty a requirement, no?
fluffypony: but not on the regular forum
fluffypony: it's still there
ThickAsThieves: it removes possibility of being a passive investor in any regard, which i suppose is okay with the right support systems in place
mircea_popescu: who's they ?
asciilifeform: (long time, no turds!)
ThickAsThieves: it's not a question of whether this is public
mircea_popescu: ThickAsThieves this channel does serve as the info distribution for all bitcoin finance.
asciilifeform: in what sense is the channel anything other than public ?
mircea_popescu: mpif is also not obliged to put ALL its capital into pcs, it can keep a reserve
ThickAsThieves: regarding my previous comments on bingoboingo soliciting trade info from others, i guess i kind of see it as the MPEx as the purported/aspiring to be SRO in the space. in that sense i think the long-term view might be to consider whether this is really a best practice, and further whether this channel would ultimately serve as fair info distribution to shareholders
mircea_popescu: mike_c i think it varies a lot over time too. for instance, pc4 is currentl;y very little exposed. but as a lot of bets are med term, 6 months, 1 yr
mike_c: seems like if you raise more funds it will turn into the panacea/JD fund. the other pcs can't handle much more capital.
ThickAsThieves: it goes to fund assets
mike_c: um, doesn't that completely change the fund? what would you do with the next 200 btc?
fluffypony: well there's that
jurov: lolk.. there goes easy profit
jurov: oh, at the same price?
mircea_popescu: mk ima add another 1mn shares then.
jurov: yes, i'm going to.. but for not i have to seize the opportunity by hand
ThickAsThieves: he'll be reporting all trades at least
kakobrekla: anyone can see the your full stat ?
mike_c: ooh, the pif liquidity manager runs a brokerage.
jurov: um...is marketmaker allowed to front run the IPO?
pankkake: and that was a fund, too. don't know who
kakobrekla: what happened there?
kakobrekla: lol top ask = scam
kakobrekla: no wot yet, so let see how that goes.
kakobrekla: o yeah, we now have venzen here cause of that post, allegedly a friend of heysteve.
mike_c: ok. that's not far off from what happened anyway i believe. couple big blocks sold.
kakobrekla: so the vol should be correct, just timing a little off
kakobrekla: mike_c btw, i summed the missed ones in a single 470k trade
mike_c: kakobrekla: pif trades are flowing. thanks.
kakobrekla: so HeySteve you know this venzen guy ?
mike_c: that bit4x email is great. "You are not too bright. All Best, Matic"
mircea_popescu: lol the small amount of oppression. the oppressed don't even know about it!
venzen: ok, thanks kakobrekla
kakobrekla: you can get voiced yourself once you get some wot rating from someone close enough to assbot
kakobrekla: fyi, you need a voice to speak here
mircea_popescu: which are like, the pre-pastafarian pastafarians.
mircea_popescu: the only thing that connotes in english is rastafarian
asciilifeform: not a bad occasion to stop and wonder, what ordinary words of today will die the same death.
mircea_popescu: same here. tovarasi was so commie-imbued in romanian it pretty much died out
Apocalyptic: I heard fico likes to be called that way
asciilifeform: anyway, for the noobs, the slavic languages are almost 'plug-compatible,' just gotta bend a few pins.
jurov: not just party members, everyone was supposed to do it, like "mr." and "ms." equivalent
mircea_popescu: wouldn't you find it odd if some othrodox country actually called the priest "cousin" ?
asciilifeform: and a priest is 'father', no one thinks this odd
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform the part where they call party members bffs ?
fluffypony: NotLambchop is my favourite person on the securities subforum lately
jurov: while "družka" is more like life and sexual partner.. dunno how commies though it's appropriate
jurov: indeed. we called them "súdruh","súdružka"
jurov: how do you called comrade in russia? tovarish?
jurov: assbot does not react to ozbot? or it's only the capitals?
pankkake: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=591758.0 who's that
pankkake: the French are forbidden to work today! it's work day
jurov: no, that was tonight ;D
mircea_popescu: jurov for a moment there i thought you may be off on something ungodly like i dunno, a 1st may vacatgion or something
mircea_popescu: now someone make a forum account put that shit up there.
pankkake: they have the same photoshop skillz
pankkake: that was my thought when I saw the pic
ozbot: The Serious IPO, a moment in the life and times of forum investing pe Trilema - Un blog de Mircea Po
mircea_popescu: ok im republishing this shit.
mircea_popescu: "It involved skewing data in Google Analytics. They decided it was a good idea to alter the statistical data shown for websites. It first began with just altering data reports for Analytics account holders that also had an AdSense account, but they ran into too many issues and decided it would be simpler just to skew the report data across the board to remain consistent and implement features globally."
mircea_popescu: no soviets ever investigate teh crown jool.
mircea_popescu: punkman that's actually quite well matched to market signals. i wonder if anyone'll ever investigate these matters. seems sort-of like a probe in gazprom.
mircea_popescu: The new policy; "shelter the possible problem makers, and fuck the rest" (those words were actually said by a Google AdSense exec) when he spoke about the new procedure and policy for "Account Quality Control".
