asciilifeform: BingoBoingo: one of these days, you ought to write 'n00b guide' to sports bets. for instance, i grew up thinking of the whole concept as a chumpatron (lusers bet, the sports meisters throw matches & pocket the chumpatronium)
mircea_popescu: or alternatively i could hire twenty cocksucking "masseuses" for like 12 btc a season and have the porniest pro sports team in da werld

ThickAsThieves: in the headline at least
ThickAsThieves: precedent at bitbet is to say 'above x rate at any time, or by a specific time' etc

mircea_popescu: course, it IS possible the leaked thing is not actually their code.

decimation: well, at the very least with OTC damage is limited and healing
Bugpowder: little did I expect OTC to be the SAFE routh
TATrilllaInTehMi: I think u gotta take 'ends up' as 'when this bet closes'

kakobrekla: i dont think forum is still on kalyhost
joecool: mostly scheduler stuff, because nobody can make up mind how how to schedule tasks for 64k cpu's vs. a typical desktop
mike_c: what's wrong is they make the code less readable, thereby making it harder for the 2nd programmer who has to touch the code.
decimation: what's wrong with commenting out lines of code? they are crumbs for students
joecool: used to have a tracker for that
mike_c: commented out lines are pretty bad (or at least a pet peeve). that's what source control is for.
joecool: mircea_popescu: still does, i need to see how many uses of "fuck" they still have in source
mircea_popescu: anyway, commented out lines in production software are more common than web designers.
mike_c: bank software is probably terrible. i highly doubt they have good programmers.
