thestringpuller: !s qntra dos
thestringpuller: mircea_popescu: how big is the dos that is hitting qntra?
BingoBoingo: <asciilifeform> BingoBoingo: i rejected three entirely different designs (different as in the diff b/w dataflow and von neumann) that did not even bother describing. perhaps archaeologists (or the vultures) can get something from my notes. << Now you are touching my view of qntra realized. Not as "news" but as cabinet of microfiche
BingoBoingo: Qntra shares really aren't a problem so long as they remain countably infinite
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform: mike_c: wsj, like nyt et al is an organ of the crown. << so is qntra.
mircea_popescu: there, that's a value of qntra approach.
mircea_popescu: jurov: FTFY: build enough audience and capital to buy ukraine <<< here's a simple calculation : someone somewhere judges it worth his time to try to attack qntra for like what, a day ?
thestringpuller: qntra down again?
ThickAsThieves: if qntra wants to task me
asciilifeform: qntra, that is
ThickAsThieves: qntra provides content of a certain portion of the spectrum
nubbins`: as opposed to qntra, where investors will expect diminishing returns
mike_c: um, then investing in qntra is not a good fit for you anyway
asciilifeform: but qntra is meant to be a chopping block for them, not a cafe
BingoBoingo: Well, the way I see it people bidding for s.qntra shares are going to be bidding for a percent of future revenue
mpmcsweeney: qntra down?
BingoBoingo: Ah, qntra is throwing me 403's nao
BingoBoingo: ThickAsThieves: Who's to say there won't at some point be a "numbers station" that broadcasts Qntra?
cazalla: if i could do that, i probably wouldn't be doing qntra
ThickAsThieves: make a qntra ticker bot
mircea_popescu: yeah, i think qntra is threatening.
thickasthieves: mp is liability to qntra
cazalla: mircea_popescu, ddos back? i see static page on qntra again
asciilifeform still puzzled on how adding a trilema post to qntra fixes the broken concept of 'news.' but perhaps is simply not the target audience ?
penguirker: New blog post: http://qntra.net/2014/10/after-defeating-it-in-the-bitcoin-market-la-serenissima-bleeds-the-usg-all-over-the-dow/
jurov: i propose using s.qntra shares as payment for trilema credits, upon which they are irreversibly destroyed
mircea_popescu: suppose qntra buys mtv, and obama is shown back to back doing that, 18`994 times over two weeks.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform to follow that model. qntra isn't a seller of 0-dioxin, 1814-equivalent tomatoes, but a greengrocer where they don't hire retards and don't mix shit in the fruit sala.d ☟︎
asciilifeform: another observation re: qntra. recall mircea_popescu's point about synthetic tomatoes? ☟︎
thickasthieves: would qntra be interested in some logo mockups? i wont be offended if you dont use any, i just think it makes a create letterform
asciilifeform: i was very unsure re: this hypothesis prior to qntra
mats_cd03: it sounds like mp has implicitly agreed to be the hearst/murdoch of qntra
thickasthieves: mp just write all your articles for qntra about your articles on trilema and i'll be happy lol
thickasthieves: possibly, the only ways for qntra shares to go up in value would be divs becoming great, or somehow closing the loop by having a way to 'spend' shares.. but at that point all you did was make an altcoin
assbot: 2 results for 'from:peterl qntra' : http://search.bitcoin-assets.com/?q=from%3Apeterl+qntra
mike_c: !s from:peterl qntra
thickasthieves: so while qntra has the least income, and needs the most from few (as in it's founders will work for equity only at start) it's founders and groundfloor employees get the most equity
cazalla: qntra authors are compromised because yesterday mircea_popescu organises hosting, today he wants to be an authour!
BingoBoingo: <thickasthieves> maybe i'll submit an article about the problem with qntra share dist model << Qntra shares embody MP view of wealth as % of math rather than number ot tokens
asciilifeform: qntra reads just like ordinary newspaper! 'company c now selling turd t.' 'company s having supply chain problems with their shit.' 'politician p derps on topic t.'
thickasthieves: maybe i'll submit an article about the problem with qntra share dist model
cazalla: well see, qntra is titled news, views and commentary so thickasthieves, you are quite welcome to submit an article in response to mircea_popescu's
Apocalyptic: <mike_c> if you want to know all the stupid shit that is hapenning, not told to you by idiots, read qntra. // that's probably the best definition of what it does
mike_c: if you want to know all the stupid shit that is hapenning, not told to you by idiots, read qntra.
thickasthieves: you can tell when qntra is trying to be cold, and when it's catering to b-a readers
asciilifeform: qntra lifted the choice of subjects from the turdmeisternews
thickasthieves: we have blogs, we have shit news, now we want qntra
BingoBoingo: qntra prolly ought to grow to include editorial eventually. cazalla's decision as to when
asciilifeform confesses that he isn't terribly fond of the qntra articles to date. nothing against the folks who wrote them! but because the entire 'bitcoin news' sphere - not only reportage, but the subject matter per se - is permeated with spam oil.
bounce: you're rooting for the tin foil hats that speculate you'll get paid to not write for qntra?
mircea_popescu: bounce think about it, if i never submitted anything to qntra wouldn't ppl want to know why i don't ?
bounce: well, why do you submit something to qntra that would do peachy fine on trilema?
bounce: does qntra have those?
mircea_popescu: i imagine like qntra
TomServo: I'd like to see qntra stick to the (published!) facts, personally.
thickasthieves: or is qntra to be like zerohedge
thickasthieves: mp, qntra being a news site, shouldnt you include some sources for your USG accusations?
mircea_popescu: i think ima submit my first qntra article. this should be fun.
assbot: The Register: Man Hunts Insufficiently Random Nonces, Blockchain.info Wallets Vulnerable | Qntra.net
mircea_popescu: <penguirker> New blog post: http://qntra.net/2014/10/the-register-man-hunts-insufficiently-random-nonce
penguirker: New blog post: http://qntra.net/2014/10/the-register-man-hunts-insufficiently-random-nonces-blockchain-info-wallets-vulnerable/
devthedev: I'm slightly worried about the Qntra shares. If the amount of S.QNTR shares double monthly wouldn't the revenue have to double as well to keep up with the inflation?
devthedev: I still can't access Qntra from over here for some reason.
ben_vulpes: jborkl wants qntra shares
assbot: Vietnam: Prosecutors Reject Charging Bitcoin Traders | Qntra.net
BingoBoingo: realzies: http://qntra.net/2014/10/vietnam-prosecutors-reject-charging-bitcoin-traders/ << Interesting to see the Prosecutors recognize of tool of great use in their personal business
BingoBoingo: danielpbarron: You considered producing any text for qntra yet?

`jurov`: i'm trying to figure out a way for poor qntra writers to have their shares, too, while avoiding freeloading
mike_c: not sure if this is part of fighting attack, but feed is returning 403. http://qntra.net/feed/
mike_c: i got srsly weirded out there. went to qntra.net/feed/ and the btcalpha rss feed came up.
mike_c: uh, qntra.net is resolving to localhost?
mike_c: those guys must be really bored. get mp kicked off twitter! ddos qntra!
mike_c: has the responsible party taken credit for the qntra harrassment?
Vexual: qntra comments: leah:source? cazalla:snarky sunt!
pete_dushenski: mircea_popescu: assbot: The Great Robocoin Rip-off <<< eagerly awaiting the qntra write-up because docs.google is too js-y for me. << i know two guys who bought these. one of them actually pgps. maybe an interview can be arranged by cazalla or bingoboingo?
mircea_popescu: assbot: The Great Robocoin Rip-off <<< eagerly awaiting the qntra write-up because docs.google is too js-y for me.
pete_dushenski: now that qntra has brought wp and hosting to top of mind, and after i changed hosting platforms, i noticed something odd on my stats page...

wyrdmantis: qntra down for me now
wyrdmantis: qntra is up for me
fluffypony: qntra down?
`jurov`: i'd check what caching http headers qntra sends
assbot: The Fall of Moolah.io | Qntra.net
`jurov`: http://qntra.net/2014/10/the-fall-of-moolah-io/ linked from front page gives me 404
punkman: can't even connect to qntra.net here
RagnarDanneskjol: this may already be known - didn't see in teh logs: http://qntra.net/cgi-sys/suspendedpage.cgi
Adlai: not really, i'm only familiar with qntra et al for what, three days?
Adlai: you could also auction qntra credits through a centralized system, that aspect of my suggestion isn't dependent upon decentralized issuance
thickasthieves: i assume ya'llready know qntra.net is down
cazalla: and qntra is suspended again
Adlai: is market analysis welcome on qntra?
Adlai: we folks are a strict superset of the qntra team
mpmcsweeney: you folks are the qntra team no?
