ben_vulpes: <mircea_popescu> unseen you know what they say, best time to open a mpex acct was when it was free. 2nd best is now. << also, don't blow your btc stack on a seat.
mircea_popescu: jurov: the solution is to not have one global wot for everything << i don't see it.
mircea_popescu: ThickAsThieves: now you can't escape the system << this is exactly true.
rithm: apeshit crazy on one hand. moral compass and won't steal on the other
mircea_popescu: you can. which is why i didn't bitch at you when i finally beheaded him.
rithm: why can't i have a 5 for luke-jr
mircea_popescu: i won't presume to interfere in experts manner and expertise.
rithm: right but i still won't rate someone who i've not a) traded with or b) stalked because i have no knowledge of that person
mircea_popescu: mike_c: rithm: but it's only harmful if 'total points' is a thing. joe schmoe isn't going to change thhe gettrust between you and others. <<< if the wot db ends up larger than ten blockchains it may become a problem to host.
mircea_popescu: rithm: no one will document that and take it seriously << a) no you can't and b) i seem to recall footage of hruschev with his shoe.
mircea_popescu: maybe i trade 5k btc a week with someone and i can't go past 1.
mircea_popescu: it could yes. but it doesn't have to be.
fluffypony: and even though the WoT itself isn't quantitative, it doesn't mean that ratings can't have quantitatively reflect the value of dealings
mircea_popescu: mike_c srsly, think about it. if his score implies a 40% probability people you know know him and yet nobody does.. isn;'t that informative ?
fluffypony: danielpbarron: I don't disagree with genericpersona, those ratings are far from the biggest threat to the WoT
mircea_popescu: danielpbarron: i think all users should be able to give ratings; doesn't matter if they are trolls or scammers << it's not really a good idea, because spamming.
mircea_popescu: The records turther detailed that the application was installed on an Apple iPhone that was titled 'Matthew Jones iphone. << secure minded fellow, he didn't use the carrier phone #, he got a special app.
mircea_popescu: doesn't make him a beanie baby anything.
godovo: I bet he didn't see it coming, lol
mike_c: more in-depth won't get read. slapping a "insured by mpex" seal on the homepage will be seen.
jurov: still, users shouldn't keep large btc balances on coinbr. place bids, get mpex receipt
mike_c: jurov: that might not be prohibitive. can't do hft anyway.
mike_c: unseen: may I ask, any reason you don't use coinbr?
mircea_popescu: ben_vulpes well i wouldn't buy the access FROM YOU.
ben_vulpes: how much? doesn't come with access lol
mircea_popescu: fluffypony: "Me siento con suerte" sounds like the title of a poem, doesn't have the same ring to it as "I'm feeling lucky" << srsly. most shit in spanish sounds poetic.
mircea_popescu: they make sure it doesn't change while it obviously does.
mircea_popescu: punkman: what happens when Diageo buys the old family distillery? does the product change or do they make sure it doesn't? << you're new, right ?
mircea_popescu: except when it isn't, sort of thing
mike_c: "Should BitPay make dilutive issuances after June 19, 2014, D.BPAY will be diluted proportionally." << these terms usually aren't public. how are you going to orchestrate this?
mircea_popescu: <BigBitz> that is... insane. << spamworld isn't known for sanity. if the people involved could think clearly they'd do something else with their time.
mircea_popescu: "let's spam and if anyone claims say we didn't do it, but if anyone buys all the better". this passes for business strategy, there.
mircea_popescu: it wouldn't, think a moment.
gribble: Error: User doesn't exist in the Rating or GPG databases. User must be GPG-registered to receive ratings.
mircea_popescu: it ain't no phishing, it routes straight to their servers.
mike_c: !t h rock
assbot: PSA: Don't change the new Blockchain iOS wallet denomination to "Bits". When you click Bitpay/Coinbase payment links it will send the wrong amount of BTC to the payment address. : Bitcoin
BigBitz: You don't /have/ to be in nano L2 to rate.
punkman: it's still perfectly possible, but scammers don't usually have long attention spans
danielpbarron: well each account would need to have a unique address associated with it; you can't share an address between acounts.. that would defeat the purpose
danielpbarron: you don't have to charge for entry to make it cost prohibitive for scammers; just require they associate with a Bitcoin address that has a positive balance; kinda like a proof-of-stake
rithm: i don't have a solution sorry
danielpbarron: bump me from a -2 to a -3 and i can't rate anymore :<
artifexd: <rithm> some people can't behave << Especially when they are on the internet and feel like there are no repercussions
ThickAsThieves: now you can't escape the system
rithm: some people can't behave
danielpbarron: well, it sorta does make a difference at the moment, because nanotube won't let you even give a rating if your score goes negative (i think)
mike_c: rithm: but it's only harmful if 'total points' is a thing. joe schmoe isn't going to change thhe gettrust between you and others.
danielpbarron: rithm, joe schmoe isn't in my L1.. what's the problem??
danielpbarron: scammers aren't in my L1; I don't care what ratings they give..
danielpbarron: anyway; the WoT isn't harmed by scammers or trolls; it harms nothing to let anyone give a rating
rithm: *can't
rithm: <danielpbarron> +i think all users should be able to give ratings; doesn't matter if they are trolls or scammers
danielpbarron: i think all users should be able to give ratings; doesn't matter if they are trolls or scammers
BigBitz: points aren't prizes.
danielpbarron: Blazedout419, they can't crush your L2..
gribble: Error: User doesn't exist in the Rating or GPG databases. User must be GPG-registered to receive ratings.
asciilifeform: but if you do, don't screw up the polarity...
pankkake: I don't understand the question, but you should use pool.sks-keyservers.net
fluffypony: "Me siento con suerte" sounds like the title of a poem, doesn't have the same ring to it as "I'm feeling lucky"
fluffypony: if you try ;;bg in -otc it won't work, but ,,bg will
punkman: what happens when Diageo buys the old family distillery? does the product change or do they make sure it doesn't?
punkman: dub, if you have old stock you probably don't need to come up with shit like "al capone's favourite hooch"
pankkake: many language-specific package managers don't check anything either
BingoBoingo: http://t.co/PaSE9njT1X
cazalla: don't copy that floppy?
pankkake: perhaps. I keep the last update log but not the previous ones. that's why there's a cache but it can't update properly because of the delay of posts appearing in the feed
mircea_popescu: ah i see it. maybe it didn't answer timely something like that ?
BingoBoingo: %t
cazalla: http://youtu.be/JABN4e4YwuA?t=33m45s
mircea_popescu: kakobrekla: anyway, he seems to be authed << you srsly brokt it, this isn't how it's supposed to work.
mircea_popescu: RetroUpriser: but they wouldnt be coming into assests << then they wouldn't be getting paid.
benkay: <pete_dushenski> benkay: she just doesn't have moosedickpete's heteroboner for mircea_popescu << give her time. << last week was big black dicks in the ass, this week is moose dick, next week is she-dick.
pete_dushenski: mircea_popescu: omg popescu and rescue don't rhyme. << says mur-see-uhh
BingoBoingo: <asciilifeform> who knows, perhaps insurers now believe, as some ww1 soldiers did, that 'shell doesn't ever drop into the old crater' << Old crater is perfect target to shell if you can't see enemies outside of it.
RebeccaBitcoin: the ukranian one doesn't appear to be entirely malaysian's fault
asciilifeform: who knows, perhaps insurers now believe, as some ww1 soldiers did, that 'shell doesn't ever drop into the old crater'
RebeccaBitcoin: odds are there won't be a third
pete_dushenski: benkay: she just doesn't have moosedickpete's heteroboner for mircea_popescu << give her time.
cazalla: can't believe bitcoinpete gave in :\
RebeccaBitcoin: isn't that the safest place?
Duffer1: i don't believe my comp was infilitrated, they attacked my services
Duffer1: they didn't get anything except a piece of pride :P
BingoBoingo: <bitcoinpete> Duffer1: but weren't you using windows ? << People can screw the pooch on Linux too
bitcoinpete: Duffer1: but weren't you using windows ?
RebeccaBitcoin: Now only if it wasn't so complicated to get on here
bitcoinpete: mike_c: bitcoinpete is a pretty good bitcoin-assets marketer. << well don't mind if i do :D
bitcoinpete: "please to call, read your blog, didn't know you felt that way…"
RebeccaBitcoin: I can't find anything shady
bitcoinpete: for those who don't know, anthony is one of the spokesman/financiers/doods behind ethereum
Duffer1: i wouldn't worry about it at all
RebeccaBitcoin: and since I paid with bitcoin, I can't call my credit card company and claim my card was stolen like I usually do
RebeccaBitcoin: its a good hypothesis but I haven't seen any proof
decimation: eh, it's all word-games anyway. the main point is that at least texas (and to some degree the IRS) recognize that they can't regulate bitcoin, but they can regulate usd, which is more-or-less the truth
RebeccaBitcoin: are you sure you don't mean coinforum
benkay: i don't see it, i tell ya
benkay: well /msg just sends the message to the recipient, doesn't broadcast to channel
danielpbarron: +z makes it so ops can see devoiced user's messages, but i don't think assbot would cooperate
benkay: danielpbarron: you can't !up yourself, but you can /msg assbot !up from #bitcoin-assets.
benkay: you won't be able to send from this one.
