mircea_popescu: but does that actually correctly include the same thing as the bitcoincharts includes.
mircea_popescu: so put it as a screenshot.
mircea_popescu: put the page as a pastebin somewhere ?
mircea_popescu: actually he's widely known as "mr warmth"
pankkake: widely known as an insult comic
ozbot: Labcoin crashes as news reveals lies : Bitcoin
mircea_popescu: http://www.reddit.com/r/Bitcoin/comments/1mcyrb/labcoin_crashes_as_news_reveals_lies/
asciilifeform: as in, everybody's metro
nubbins`: take that as a compliment or a slight
mircea_popescu: cheaper, faster, just as good.
nubbins`: while sacrificing nothing in the way of security, as long as it's done properly
dexX7: are you doing this as hobby?
ThickAsThieves: lemme see, i was, as an american, of course only looking at USD
ThickAsThieves: thestringpuller, bitcoin IPVOs as funding is not new trend, it is the vast majority of offerings, no?
AndChat|52500: No I'm more interested in seeing how it plays out as I think this could be the start of a trend.
ThickAsThieves: as no one is asking you to buy anything you don't want
mircea_popescu: this is fact. as explained by kuhn et all, scientific endeavour is impossible absent some sort of paradigm.
benkay: but only in as a joke about your long-running schtick about "shutting up and doing as one's told by one's betters"
benkay: well as soon as i realize i'm studying tactics i generally stop
benkay: nominally the doing away with space and time as different things is new
benkay: "pysicists must also prove that the new geometric formulation applies to the exact particles that are known to exist in the universe, rather than to the idealized qft they used to develop it called maximally supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory. this model, which includes a "superpartner" particle (gotta look at that) and treats space-time as flat, "just happens to be the simplest test case for these new
kakobrekla: i see there is X as futures
mod6: oh, that works just as well.
kakobrekla: as you wish
kakobrekla: what do you mean as long as its not mpex?
mod6: just as long as its not from mpex
mircea_popescu: there's no such thing as push-helping people.
mircea_popescu: and then whine as to why it's 300 bitcoins worth 10k usd each by then
Namworld: On a side note, another cash transaction just completed. Smooth as ever.
benkay: to call shenanigans on such respected community institutions as btct
benkay: when it comes to profit, i'm laser-focused on building software for others and as a moon shot doing some quant work
benkay: you can abstract it a layer above that and point at the role of school in america as state-sponsored daycare
Duffer1: and who would be in there to enjoy popcorn with me as labcoin goes to da moon/ground?
assbot: The eagle never lost so much time as when he submitted to learn from the crow.
dub: annoying as it is
imsaguy: those are weighted from amphi as well
mircea_popescu: which is exactly the problem with "washing" data, such as trying to extract temperature records from soil samples.
mircea_popescu: lewicki it's a sampling problem. the same problem you eschewed earlier, as i was about to ask you if you know enough math to model the average concentration of gas A in the top tenth of a recipient holding a mixture of A and B where A is 10x as heavy as B.
dub: lewicki: I thought they are pointing to a warmer than average day 150 years ago as being proof postiive oslt
mircea_popescu: guess what ?! CFC became very bad a thing just as patent on them was expiring.
dub: I discounted it as irrelevant
mircea_popescu: and dense that little, if any, ever made it into the upper atmosphere. In fact, chlorides from wind-driven salt spray are a far larger constituent of atmospheric chlorine than CFCs ever were. Also, over the US where much of the CFCs were being released the amount of UV reaching the ground was decreasing during the same period (as the “ozone hole” was being fear-mongered).
topace: as a "display" version of the symbol
mircea_popescu: "As soon as AGW mutated to Anthropogenic Climate Change the whole show should have been laughed off the stage and all the players terminated (tenured or not)." < now this is the case.
VanCleef: as long as we get rid of the jews life will be good again
kakobrekla: we might as well be discussing nazis
mircea_popescu: pankkake inasmuch as that is emphatically not science.
kakobrekla: anyway i can remove it as easily as i have added it, if we have a problem with it
dub: I know for experience as soon as teh mainstream media stop talking about somethign it ceases to exist
dub: my estimation is the ozone layer is still inconsistent as fuck
mircea_popescu: dude get out. even saying "carbon" is about as illiterate as it gets.
mircea_popescu: fortunately i have access to actual scientists, as opposed to us govt stoogies.
mircea_popescu: it's kind of shocking to me someone can sit there and posture as if "science", on the basis of fifty years worth of geological measurements thart were extrapolated backwards to create a dataset that's then extrapolated forwards in time.
mircea_popescu: herp. i knew i was gonna run into that. refusal to submit to an attempt to create a larger market for the mafia interest through liberal application of bad science should be disclosed as a liability!!1
mircea_popescu: "Denial of emerging hazards such as global warming. ☟︎
mircea_popescu: well since we're doing this entire "let's teach mp vintnery terms in english as if the english speaking world even makes wine",
pankkake: those lists are usually useless as they don't factor success rate, time to effect, or price
random_cat: but it's so rare that we might as well be talking about accidently being struck by lightning in the eye
mircea_popescu: lsd has neither as far as anyone knows.
mircea_popescu: seeing how it's about as harmful as aspirin.
kakobrekla: ;;later tell topace recheck what you are sending in as type, i see some errors (bonds as shares..)
kakobrekla: ;;later tell burnside recheck what you are sending in as type, i see some errors (bonds as shares..)
Kleeck__: They were good dudes, with good ideas. Most of what they did was PR (as far as holders could see) and now they're getting a Full-time PR Firm to do that.
Duffer1: "1) Some members of the board wish to pursue other avenues within the Bitcoin world that are tied to potential conflicts of time and interest, so the ethical choice is to step-down." i read that as "we want to gamble on labcoin instead"
gesell: ThickAsThieves: why are there so many large buys? A buying force wouldn't create this. The buyer would still want to get the cheapest price, not jack it up as the current whales seem to be doing
ThickAsThieves: gesell, whether it's because of withdrawal issues on Gox or elswhere, my working theory is still that there seems to be a paced buying force. Just as, when volume was higher, there were paced selling forces. I'm guessing this drawn-out rally will not be able to avoid moving the price as much as they'd like though, particularly considering that the market is looking for a cue to manifest
gesell: dexX7: at first i thought the phatom wall could be so that you push the asks beneith that, in effect setting an upper bound forcing a lot of asks to go lower than maybe they would have normally. this would benefit you as an investor because you'd get coin for cheaper when you buy. Still.... if the play is because you want cheaper coin, or because you want to have a shock ralley... it's not because of withdrawal
dexX7: but gox still acts as market leader, so if you do want to cash out, i don't see how a ralley could hurt, because other exchanges follow usually
Duffer1: ah i suppose you're right. i'm not used to thinking of .6mil as a small amount
thestringpuller: kay he's still riggin the face I'll have him comment on Trilema and Chett can feed him some info as to how she wants to import the files
mircea_popescu: basically, the entire thing revolves around blender, which has built in support to export as what's needed (cal3d)
mircea_popescu: far as anyone can tell, america's contribution to human understanding is some sort of variation of "special-subgroup-studies"
mircea_popescu: Kleeck__ you'll be hard pressed arguing technology is an intellectual pursuit of such central relevance as to excuse the problems tho.
Kleeck__: And many fields of science are necessary to make these companies as successful as they are.
mircea_popescu: which means it has a finite lifespan as they don't have infinite bankroll.
mircea_popescu: Duffer1 as you buy in the likeliness of it actually going up goes down, you're basically ballast for its dreams.
ThickAsThieves: so this is your theory as likely the case?
mircea_popescu: as very few people are left in you can put the price way up, because there's nobody to sell
mircea_popescu: as people went out, fewer people were left in
jurov: incl. such mostrosities as .vermögensberatung
ThickAsThieves: as was .countryoforigin?
mircea_popescu: pity you can't be fired for that stupidity, as you don't really work here.
jurov: and so you will focus to things as optimizing first sync speed and introducing moar bugs in the process
Luke-Jr: jurov: yeah, something would be nice. that's progressing pretty slow though, as focus has been on end users
ThickAsThieves: yes it is related, at least in the context that we are talking to Luke, Luke wants to be on the board, and Luke sees the BF's purpose as to provide funding for these Devs
mircea_popescu: ThickAsThieves you perceive this as somehow related to the foundation thingee ?
ThickAsThieves: i just dont like the concept that the Devs pretty much act as the keepers and drivers of bitcoin software
mircea_popescu: ThickAsThieves it's a piece of shit, practically. why, just last march, just as Luke-Jr & friends were trying to mount the entire "sdice is bad" offensive, they got cut down by a sudden fork!
ThickAsThieves: maybe, i think there is something to what Joerg is trying to say, on that it will be more respected as an international organization if it is diverse,
Luke-Jr: ThickAsThieves: just as the "men vs women" is a tactic Elizabeth is using
ThickAsThieves: (as an organization)
mircea_popescu: <Luke-Jr> it can help Bitcoin without trying to run the show <<< look, you know as well as i do the foundation is essentially purposeless, but has been recently re-purposed on the fly so as to give the usg muppets some pleasurable way to waste their time.
Luke-Jr: ThickAsThieves: I want to minimise the Foundation's influence as much as possible.
dub: I like how he refers to it as 'the foundation community'
mircea_popescu: and they're gonna influence exactly you, for as long as you stick to that notion.
ThickAsThieves: Trace badmouths LukeJr for not allowing Jon Matonis as a press contact of bitcoin foundation
mircea_popescu: i would propose you yourself as anecdotal proof that no such bulslhit detector either exists or is available.
dexX7: kakobrekla: well, i'm able to parse bitstamp/btct data into a format that can be imported as historical data into nt, but it would be neat if i could submit trades via ninjatrader
pankkake: I'm asking this as I could provide an API bridge, if ninjatrader can deal with one standardized API
dexX7: the api of btct can be as good as it could be, but if they don't allow other providers than those who are partnered with, it's worth nothing
