turn out
to said executor)

that debacle,
mircea_popescu: which is currently
the only asset some new zealand executor has
to
try and repay
the creditors
mircea_popescu: and in no case was he authorised
to "make open source"
the codebase
mircea_popescu: they were (illegally) leaked by amir
taaki, who in he process exposed sensitive passwords
mircea_popescu: is built out of
taking
the leaked bitcoinica sources and running
them
mircea_popescu: bitfinex (the
thing which now is misreported as > 30% of
the bitcoin average usd price)
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: Can
they build any other way?
bitcoinpete: Which was a strange mental default I had
to correct
bitcoinpete: Hardly revelatory, but it's a reassessment of sorts of my previous notion
that one should ever
try
to make "bitcoin more accessible"
mircea_popescu: mart specifically refers
to
the loss in backgammon when you lose without having
taken out any of your own pieces.

BingoBoingo: Well, one
thing I remember vividly from undergrad is
that
the nepali students were some of
the chillest people on campus, but woe unto
the football player who
took a fancy
to a Nepali girl and was
then introduced
to a cricket bat.
cads: I
think I could see
that
the family of stopping
times of a given process might let us create a filtration
that other processes could be adapted
to.
cads: I'm wondering where does
the filtration come from
to begin with.
cads: hey mircea_popescu, is
there a simple
terms explanation for what it means for a brownian process B(t)
to be adapted relative
to a filtration F_t? I understand
that it means
that for each
t B(t) is F_t measurable,
that is, B(t) is always fully measurable against
the data F_t carries. In particular we do not require events available only
to some future refinement F_s of
the filtration.
mircea_popescu: hehe writing an article right now, knee deep in
the clouds and whatnot.
