mircea_popescu: "on this set of 100 consecutive bets, the results for X behaviour are .1 and for Y behaviour are .04"
mircea_popescu: ok but it helps if you bolster that authority claim with actual data
Neil: I'll just say that, watching bitbet for a while, as I have, I feel waiting pays. It is my belief that it would benefit from faster decay.
jurov: Neil that exact case would require manual intervention "o difficulty prediction is > 16% ? drop the weight sharply"
mircea_popescu: "footwear should be made to support taller women because you should see this swede i'm dating"
mircea_popescu: no lol. i'm claiming that on the basis of picking some outliers you can't make general statements.
Neil: mircea_popescu: Are you claiming some fudge for the first 4 days would fix it? You're smarter than that.
mircea_popescu: just as long as you don't wait more than 4 days
mircea_popescu: Neil that's an outlier.
nubbins`: mircea_popescu: that's the gamble. someone with pocket change could swing it either way
Neil: Adn the 8BTC bet at the last minute of the "16% bet" just in the last 24 hrs supports my other claim of "betting at the last minute, under linear decay, pays".
chetty: would you use the same address to bet both sides?
Mats_cd03: the burden of evidence lies on the individual making the claim
mircea_popescu: evidence to the contrary of an unsupported thesis is not necessary.
Neil: OK, evidence to the contrary?
mircea_popescu: much akin to saying "i've never seen anyone in a green tshirt depositing more money in the bank than they were taking out"
Neil: Well that's 1 out of 2. So 50% sofar
mircea_popescu: this seems completely irrelevant to the discussion
Neil: I haven't seen a single example of anyone (same output address) betting on bitbet making money. There are numerous examples to the contrary.
mircea_popescu: poor advice/waiting pays/harsher than linear. pick one.
mircea_popescu: inasmuch as we're asking the same thing lol, youcan do both at a time
Neil: Which part? One at a time.
mircea_popescu: Neil seriously ? got any data to support this ?
Neil: mircea_popescu: MisterE no actually, betting both sides is the way to play. << I think, judging from the public histories on bitbet, that this is very poor advice. It seems that waiting pays; I think bitbet probably needs harsher time decay than linear.
jurov: and volume goes up then
mircea_popescu: “Assuming that insight will work with people who are unmotivated to change is a colossal misunderstanding."
mircea_popescu: month's volume is 1.7btc tho. someone could easily manipulate it
VanCleef: Is Russia ready to cut up its plastic? After Visa and MasterCard stopped processing some Russian transactions in response to U.S. sanctions, Moscow says it could launch a homegrown payment system that could be ready in as little as six months
B007: seems that price follows interest
mircea_popescu: one small akismet and that's it
