nubbins`: "hey bru, know

mircea_popescu: yet he somehow magically doesn't understand why satoshi ain't
talkin'
to him no more.
mircea_popescu: "He was
the kind of person who, if you made an honest mistake, he might call you an idiot and never speak
to you again," Andresen says.
mircea_popescu: you gotta ? really ? how about
the press and all
that learns
to irc instead. not like bitcoin is here
to _adapt_
to anything now is it.
mircea_popescu: kinda shocking how stupid
this character is, seriously.
mircea_popescu: "If you come out as
the leader of Bitcoin, now you have
to make appearances and presentations and comments
to

that didn't really fit with Satoshi's personality,"

mircea_popescu: From
that moment, Satoshi Nakamoto stopped responding
to emails and dropped off
the map.
mircea_popescu: Then he
told Nakamoto he'd accepted an invitation
to speak at
the Central Intelligence Agency headquarters. "I hope
that by
talking directly
to
them and, more importantly, listening
to
their questions/concerns,
they will
think of Bitcoin
the way I do - as a just-plain-better, more efficient, less-subject-to-political-whims money," he said. "Not as an all-powerful black-market
tool
that will be used by anarchists
to ove
mircea_popescu: Andresen responded: "Yeah, I'm not happy with

gribble: chaang-noi was last seen in #bitcoin-assets 3 weeks, 3 days, 4 hours, 25 minutes, and 40 seconds ago: <Chaang-Noi> might have
to sue em
mircea_popescu: moustakis
tried
to finesse it out of
the
testimony, and absent any sort of competent defese it will probably wash away just fine
mircea_popescu: anyway,
the one - pretty much
the only one - barb for
the sec in
the pirate story is
that indeed
the facts seem
to support pirate's allegation
that he actually paid out
the newest investors first.
ozbot: Is Bitstamp going
the same way as Gox?
ozbot: As a European
this is how I imagine Americans have breakfast - Imgur
mircea_popescu: actually correct quote : “The BTC is
the only
thing in
the world worth working for, worth fighting for, worth dying for, because it's
the only
thing
that lasts".
kakobrekla: i bet we will see him on 'major'
tv stations
this year
mircea_popescu: btc,
tits. btc is
the only
thing
that matters,
the only
thing
that lasts.
tara!
kakobrekla: isnt
taaki still herp derping around, why are you
talking like he is history, i mean he might be, but he doesnt know
that
gribble: You rated user Vandroiy on Sat Sep 1 23:00:35 2012, with a rating of 1, and supplied
these additional notes: Risked 5k of his own bitcoins
to help a bunch of forum retards see
the light..
mircea_popescu: that's all it's
there for. costs
the rest of us a prett ypenny,
too
reeses_: since
they hold
the coins,
too
mircea_popescu: i guess
that's why
the sec claiming
the current price is a good
thing
reeses_: ok I'm sure he is doing
that now
mircea_popescu: otherwise it'd be all "o fuck me, 160k for 80k btc ? i did
that ? srsly ? "
reeses_: the mentally impaired generally lack
the ability for introspection
mircea_popescu: like shavers, like
taaki, like maxwell, like you know,
the lengthy list of idiots
that were "involved" early on
Diablo-D3: mircea_popescu: look in
the mirror! dohohohohoho
reeses_: I mean, sure,
that's real money in shitholes like
texas and romania
mircea_popescu: i fucking wonder, you know, what
the
thought process of
the mentally impaired is.
reeses_: what a sad amount,
though :-)
reeses_: mircea_popescu: it just means his average spread was $2, which was ok at
the
time :-)
kakobrekla: in
the sense any other orphan would be an evil block
to bc.info at
the
time
dexX7: but
there was only one block in
the network and
two on blockchain.info due
to
the fail, right?
kakobrekla: they had a fail and had
to manually fix it
thats why its not in
the standard orphaned blocks page
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo did it actually say "Michael Marquardt" or
theymos or what ?
mircea_popescu: kakobrekla which is why i say let cary explain it, how
the fuck would we know.
kakobrekla: not necessarily, you dont know what
the bug was
mircea_popescu: if you go "block 200344, here's
the hash (from block 200344') and here's
the
txn, from block 200344" you got a problem
mircea_popescu: kakobrekla
that if
they had an orphan it would show its own hash and root, not
the correct block's.
kakobrekla: i havent checked anything but whats
the problem
kakobrekla: afaik
the
txes listed
there were from an orphan
dexX7: maybe blockchain receives
the complete blocks from it's backend in some way and had a small blackout while post-processing and adding
the
txs
to
their db ... well, who knows.
they seem
to be aware
though.
mircea_popescu: (i don't keep much of an eye on blockchain.info since
there exists blockr)
mircea_popescu: well
then i suppose you'd better blog about it, or post or somthing.
dexX7: the hash and merkleroot was
the same
mircea_popescu: this would necessarily result in
them listing a different set of
txns from
the actual set as found on
the actual chain
mircea_popescu: if a service like blockchain.info goes down (ie, stops listening
to
the chain) it may end up with
the impression a meanwhile discarded block is still valid
dexX7: and everything was correct except
the number of
transactions +
the missing ones were indeed not listed
mircea_popescu: you mean
the hash of
the block as reported
then matches
the hash as reported now ?!
kakobrekla: well i dunno,
thats
the word i got and i dont
think its made up
dexX7: well, good
then
that it's known
dexX7: oh really? but
the blockhash etc. was correct?
kakobrekla: they had an orphan in
the list instead of
the real block
mircea_popescu: Duffer1: big one and number
two.. anyone
taking bets one of
those was goat? << yes. how much you wanna bet ?
