andyfletcher: dexX7, you would have to tell us which direction you were looking
[\]: neo pr was active for a week after their last post
mircea_popescu: (i'm just being very sarcastic because that thread's too funny to do anything else)
mircea_popescu: this dude can lay down the webhurt lawl.
mircea_popescu: "Some men enjoy dancing with other men without their tops on while others prefer the company of a woman two KFC family buckets away from upsetting the planet's rotational axis."
mircea_popescu: has a twitter or an email or something im sure ?
bocobit: I'm just trying to find out some info on him like where he's from/ past work ect.
mircea_popescu: nubbins` in point of case, it's a major improvement over the previous stuff
nubbins`: just found a wart on my finger. turns out it's dough.
nubbins`: give up the facade
mircea_popescu: dexX7 you just think so because you're a one man band that never leaves his appartment.
mircea_popescu: [\\\] they were the guys that spoke out of turn on the topic and then never brought it up again.
dexX7: "Danny doesn't need to talk directly to shareholders and customers." ... wow, reaching that point was faster then i expected (i didn't at all)

mircea_popescu: poor finley already said he's not it. actually, what he said was, "i could claim it and go to my grave a celebrated inventor. it'd be sweet. however... i did not do it, sadly. stop hounding me."
TestingUnoDosTre: at least that's what one redditor claimed
TestingUnoDosTre: it says bitcoinwisdom uses a mix of 2016 long term linear and 504 short term linear to estimate
mircea_popescu: [\\\] da fuck is that supposed to be
TestingUnoDosTre: ahhh thank you
mircea_popescu: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=289730.msg5978604#msg5978604 check out this epic shit. apparently i'm a bad person because i don't suck now.
[\]: I'm glad we pay these people: http://www.whitehouse.gov/sites/default/files/getcovered/10.gif
TestingUnoDosTre: scratch that, it looks like no one answered
TestingUnoDosTre: ahhh yes. There was some lag inbetween when I was checking it and disconnected
mircea_popescu: TestingUnoDosTre perhaps check the log ?
TestingUnoDosTre: alright I've asked this before, but I got disconnected. Why does gribble have such a lower prediction for next difficulty compared to bitcoinwisdom. Is one sampling way more or way less blocks than the other?
tg2: Eventually it'll take over in the us
xdotcomm_: tg2: kijji > craigslist thats y in Canada its #1
xdotcomm_: 5 to 10x better for early adapters and 10 to 20 for the masses
mircea_popescu: wait, the theory is that these people bought an office building too ?!
mircea_popescu: "The trading is simply frozen; unless they tore down the building and sold the rubble Im pretty sure that NEO's offices will be open come Monday."
xdotcomm_: its tough because you gotta make it so much better then craigslist + ebay ... otherwise no go.. they already have the masses
nubbins`: xdotcomm_, tg2: those are problems?
tg2: That and their code is from 1999
nubbins`: just pasting things here
xdotcomm_: problem with craigslist is there is no rankings
nubbins`: so there's that
nubbins`: on the bright side, a bunch of people in cyprus got several months worth of salary that they wouldn't have had otherwise
tg2: I have a model which would be great for this kind of transparency
tg2: Who is keeping the company truthful about their earnings
mircea_popescu: tg2 that didn't parse.
Apocalyptic: nubbins`, thanks for the link, i'm reading
tg2: Unfortunately there is no reprimand even declaring profitability
mircea_popescu: as far as i know every pdf-ipo to date has done this sort of thing
mircea_popescu: i guess this is why no gpg contract = scam, pretty much.
nubbins`: but that's 28.x% for free
mircea_popescu: the figures seem to be 68.4x% and 40%.
ThickAsThieves: only the 31% wouldve been eligible for the initial divs
mircea_popescu: the net effect of this change is for lmb to gift itself a significant portion of the equity.
ThickAsThieves: basically the unsold shares sat unsold afaik
mircea_popescu: Public investors will hold 9,600,000 LMB Holdings shares (60% of the profits), whilst LMB Subsidiaries Limited (UK) shall hold 6,400,000 shares (40% of the profits), for a total of 16,000,000 LMB Holdings virtual shares, which represent 100% of the global profits of the LMB Subsidiaries Limited (UK).
mircea_popescu: this is an update of the previous version, which read :
mircea_popescu: Public investors currently hold 5,042,638 LMB Holdings shares (31.5164875% of the profits), whilst LMB Subsidiaries Limited (UK) shall hold 10,957,362 shares 68.4835125% of the profits), for a total of 16,000,000 LMB Holdings virtual shares, which represent 100% of the global profits of the LMB Subsidiaries Limited (UK).
mircea_popescu: ThickAsThieves well, here's the problem :
ThickAsThieves: there was a portion seperately allocated for employee program of some sort I think, not tradable
ThickAsThieves: <mircea_popescu> so apparently lmb gifted itself a hefty 28% equity stake post-ipo /// To my knowledge LMB never gifted itself anything nor moved shares to Havelock
nubbins`: Apocalyptic: might as well read the whole day
tg2: It feels like the irs just said "here's our stance" and left the door open to an overriding ruling from a larger authority
Apocalyptic: too bad TAT is mixed up in this
tg2: If there was a landmark supreme court case
tg2: one might assume that those remain attainable for somebody
MisterE: yea but challenging those regulations is not possible for mere mortals
tg2: And IRS Revenue Rulings, which I would assume the btc guidance fell under
tg2: Federal court ruling sits higher than agency interpretive regulations
tg2: They have their irc code
Apocalyptic: damn i need to sleep
MisterE: might take public comment
tg2: There should be an avenue to have those rules revised
MisterE: no they made powerful administrative rules too
tg2: Ergo they should be susceptible to change
tg2: Not the irs
tg2: Well who votes on tax rates
chetty: get the IRS to change? you ARE joking?
tg2: They basically made it a paperwork disaster to actually tax it
