othernubs`: can'
t go copying keys between machines
mircea_popescu: usgavin can make usbitcoin, or they can have gavin & mike's extra special bitcoin-identical flavouring "i can'
t believe it's not blockchain"
decimation: 65 pound paper is pretty heavy isn'
t it?
decimation: that's a good question, and should be answerable. Don'
t the clients identify with a string?
decimation: ben_vulpes: I donno, I haven'
t looked into that in detail
cazalla: they give each person a different address to send btc for their bro, surprised they didn'
t pump up the numbers to make it look more popular than it is
ben_vulpes: later they introduced the hyphen, that apparently wasn'
t a thing at 0.5.3
Apocalyptic: well if you don'
t I don'
t see the point in the '0',
mircea_popescu: jurov a) how is 0.01 an hour the current going price ? b) motherboard 50bux, cpu 100 bux, memory 50 bux, hdd 50 bux. don'
t need a monitor.
jurov: Apocalyptic doesn'
t matter. even if the machine may be beefy, it is unpredictably intermittent
mircea_popescu: i think the actor's an idiot that can'
t either act or sing, but that's okay : for one thing, so is timberlake. for the other : that's exactly the part.
mircea_popescu: like, if you were google, right ? wouldn'
t you be fucking impressed to see the same text from 50 profiles all the damned time ?
bounce: oh hey, isn'
t that nice. instead of some js that'll popup a "[tweet] [fb]" thingy every time you select a bit of text, this here bunch has convenient prefab tweets with url and approved text that you but have to click on to tweet.
bounce doesn'
t mention the slashes
mircea_popescu: cause it doesn'
t properly account for the world, just for what the theorizer'd like.
bounce: that doesn'
t mean that a big large fixed magnetic field will magically cushion any and all vibration, which I understand was the point
BingoBoingo: bounce: No, manul post, that way it isn'
t spamming
bounce: if you dig a little deeper, see if you can'
t find the list of NSF grant numbers known to originate at the NSA
jurov: and it isn'
t solved at all for such general purpose case
bounce: haven'
t seen it, roughly know the plot. probably should take the time sometime.
mircea_popescu: just, the fucktards that write about things they don;'
t understand, when they're not busy husslking pete in his comment section,
Adlai: well there is a missing object. malice and benevolence don'
t exist in a vacuum, they have to be directed at something
bounce: er, tcp doesn'
t do crap without ip to transport it. the layers do build on each other
mircea_popescu: no, it doesn'
t need them "to function", because it functioning is not a layer 7 thing.
bounce: I ment that layer 7 still needs the lower layers to function, it doesn'
t float in air
bounce: this doesn'
t compute. take your hand outta my brains and try again?
bounce: wouldn'
t benevolence require some sort of intelligence or something?
mike_c: on kickstarter those guys are selling a hover board for $450 that.. doesn'
t hover.
Apocalyptic: asciilifeform, to be fair it's not the newton's law that is neglected here, but the fact that you won'
t get a magnetic field even close to be powerfull enough to support that weight
xanthyos: hoverboards don'
t work on water. not unless you have power.
Adlai hasn'
t figured out yet whether any of what happens on btcjam is not btcscam
mircea_popescu: no, he prolly realised that he doesn'
t need it or want to use it and it'll just gather dust
mircea_popescu: eating some earthworms or w/e isn'
t really doing much anymore.
mircea_popescu: which in the grand scheme of things isn'
t really much at all. they've already fucked the goat in the public market long ago
Adlai: it'd be a little funny if all the devs agreed to the hardfork, got a working patch together, then went miner by miner and couldn'
t get a single one to agree to switch
Apocalyptic: <mircea_popescu> yeah, it's possible miners won'
t make the best decision. this was illustrated yesterday, when the atc miners failed to make the best decision. // btw that was pretty impressive
diametric: maybe i'm mistaken but doesn'
t the white paper basically state a hard fork will be required in the future to address scalability?
mircea_popescu: yeah, it's possible miners won'
t make the best decision. this was illustrated yesterday, when the atc miners failed to make the best decision.
mircea_popescu: because money doesn'
t think all that much of code monkeys. and definitely isn'
t going to start taking their ideas of how to manage things seriously.
Adlai: miners are people too, and people don'
t always make the best decisions. even if they act rationally, they might not be aware of all the information about an issue.
mats_cd03: and... they won'
t let themselves get shit on.
Adlai: as much as the timecube's four days revolve around the WoT, I wouldn'
t be surprised if most of the people who have heard about the hardfork proposal haven'
t heard any competing argument against it
ben_vulpes: it'd be neat if he'd differentiate between Bitcoin the reference implementation which is bug-ridden and shitty, and Bitcoin the protocol which doesn'
t exist.
mircea_popescu: try to not do that so you don'
t ned up like the 62c5186b@gateway/web/freenode/ip.98.197.24.107 retard.
undata: mircea_popescu: what makes you like Argentina? Things like wealth taxes don'
t convey a sense of respect for private property, though I can see how that'd be irrelevant to BTC wealth
mircea_popescu: "Many people spent a big chunk of their lives investing in this dream and it didn'
t pan out quite as we wish."
decimation: that bitcoin-0.1 turd definitely depends on db_cxx.h, which seems to be bdb, but that isn'
t a full answer
AdamIR2: I realise now you were talking about Michael Go, and his involvement with MMADX several years ago. I don'
t know the details of his involvement with that, but it is not connected with Independent Reserve.
AdamIRAway: Sorry they haven'
t been to your liking, I will be happy to leave if it's not welcome.
AdamIRAway: Secondly, we aren'
t using any software from Admiral Markets or MMDX, not a single line of code, I don'
t know what systems they've used previously. Our systems have been developed in-house over the past 15 months.
AdamIRAway: First of all, I'm not involved in any waay with MMDX - I hadn'
t heard of them until you mentioned it.
mircea_popescu: now my thinking is that you couldn'
t have spent very long making a dedicated platform, seeing how this just happened this year, so you're either reusing one or the other. i somehow doubt it's admiral's platform, so prolly im guessing mmdx's ?
mircea_popescu: anyway, since michael go doesn'
t seem on the menu, how did you get Admiral Markets's very own Lasanka Perera ? or what exactly is the arrangement there ?
decimation: AdamIRAway: that pretty much sounds to me something like "we plan to float bitcoin and hope we don'
t get screwed"
AdamIRAway: decimation... Pwc will be auditing our finances, and we will make their report available. We are looking to engage them to audit our XBT reserves as well shortly. We aren'
t currently transparent day-to-day regarding our reserves/balances, but it is obviously something we will be looking to do shortly after our launch.
decimation: AdamIRAway: are you going to be transparent to your customers w.r.
t. actual daily balances?
AdamIRAway: 4. Most people, particularly Australians (but other nationalities also), can verify themselves online within minutes, usually without having to submit any identification documents. In some cases we can'
t automatically verify that, we can still verify manually.
mircea_popescu: AdamIR get in the wot. actually why aren';
t you in there already ?
BingoBoingo: Why can'
t a datacenter be protected similarly?
cazalla: mike_c, which pete linked to but it's a commentary and as news alone, i don'
t think anyone cares what someone said regarding bitcoin so it could only be commentary on qntra
mike_c: i don'
t mean to poop on pete, but his is the one i just read.
mike_c: or, to rephrase. a news article shouldn'
t have as much of a slant as a blog post.
bounce: that isn'
t really an answer.
morgan-freeman_: bounce: I don'
t spam! my friends told me to put it on #bitcoin-assets and #bitcoin-otc - I've never seen these two channels so I tried
morgan-freeman_: well, I don'
t know but there is only a horse manure as a choice.. once I saw an elephant shit on one site, but no bitcoins
dr_love: kakobrekla: ye, I like the way his movies aren'
t intended as message films. it's more like art, really
