mircea_popescu: i don'
t do it personally, and the mods just get to have fun. i hold no particular audit of their success. i guess some try to beat the game or w/e, i personally don'
t care, and that's where the incentive structure starts.
punkman: but besides that, wouldn'
t it be more work to approve 30 single bets than 1 30-way bet?
mircea_popescu: there's no corectness involved, bitbet doesn'
t make any effort whatsoever to split the seed correctly.
punkman: considering a 10-way or 30-way bet, that is sure more work for bitbet mods to seed correctly. So I guess we won'
t see multibets until there's just too many single bets covering the same events
mike_c: i wouldn'
t kill too many brain cells trying to figure it out.
punkman: tried the logs for previous discussion but couldn'
t locate

Naphex: Apocalyptic: but isn'
t ECDH safe from shor's attack?
mircea_popescu: Apocalyptic, the question is more subtle than that. perhaps a better rendering would be "which of rsa, ec is more likely to have tiny pores we don'
t kjnow about"
Naphex: picking out the good from the bad should be a skill everyone has, but that ain'
t gonna happen
mike_c: c'mon, you know ascii knows and just won'

t happen, i have a whole department working on it.
mircea_popescu: nubbins`: BingoBoingo: i actually had wondered why $15k plus damages -- didn'
t realize until you pointed out that they didn'
t touch s.dice << yeah, funny how that worked huh.
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: It isn'
t that there is benefit derived from it. It is that when we can beat the Coindesks to the aggregators, it injures them in ways only they can rationalize. << wow that's an unexpected point.
gribble: Error: User doesn'
t exist in the Rating or GPG databases. User must be GPG-registered to receive ratings.

t see much interest in xrp anyway and all the news i bet didn'
t help
Naphex: i don'
t care about ripple, but kept noticing it and wondered if they pump the volume on exchanges that accept XRP or what
mircea_popescu: a) it myust be 1024 wide ; b) i don'
t own the copyright
Naphex: so.. if the difficulty adjusts itself to do sha256 for 10 minutes, isn'
t bitcoin backed by TIME?
mircea_popescu: alternatively, most of them can'
t read trilema because it is painful.
Naphex: i wonder all the people who think you don'

t reconsiders her new maintenance fees perhaps we need to any of this:
mircea_popescu: (i;m an asshole, i can'
t tell most people apart. also i'm famous for thinking most women are blonde etc)
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: Arethra doesn'
t look Oprah bad
mircea_popescu: i guess since there are no famous or remarkable women in history, women can'
t do the same thing. wtf is bitcoinmarymagdalene.
mircea_popescu: at least derpy guys understand that bitcoinman doesn'
t work, so they go for bitcoinjezuz instead
mircea_popescu: nubbins`: if she got it, she wouldn'
t work for motherboard << isn'
t this sexist ? shouldn'
t it be fatherboard ?
mike_c: don'
t call it small, you'll make it mad
diametric: is this guy for real, i can'
t recall that nick before.
danielpbarron: mike_c, everyone is disgusting; I hate everyone. I wouldn'
t do business with anyone if that were my criteria
mike_c: good thing, can'
t be giving more money to tim cook.
pankkake: lol I didn'
t know about the employee and the coupon. golden
danielpbarron: <+mike_c> hehe. i think we are talking about limits on freedom. you think people should be free to be racist/homophobic. i'm not sure i agree. << you think people should be free to commit acts of sodomy; I am *sure* I don'
t agree. Which one of our sensibilities is more valuable? My solution is: you enforce your anti-racist w/e on your property, and I'll enforce my anti-homo w/e on mine.
mircea_popescu: nubbins`: "the sec is pleased to announce that it suffered a net loss of only $150,000 in securing mr voorhees' conviction" << it wasn'
t a conviction. more like "the sec spent 150k for bitcoin people to go "here's a dime go buy something nice for yourself and stfu""
☟︎ mircea_popescu: for that matter, am i the only one old enough to remember the reason we don'
t use linode ?
Naphex: but don'
t just go about hosting bitcoins on vps's
xmj: in other words.. don'
t ask me
xmj: Naphex: because it's not part of the "core business" and you don'
t get seed-funded to do that.
Naphex: and also, storing private data on hypervisors you don'
t control
mircea_popescu: mike_c, i told them they suck while there, too. you don;
t know about it because i told THEM
mircea_popescu: this is why there shouldn'
t be a greater power than a baker in the first placre.
mircea_popescu: god help us if i happen to think xmj is stupid and xmj happens to think i shouldn'
t happen to think that. what's that gonna yield, a law against thinking xmjs are stupi ? enacted by ycombinator ?
mike_c: what's the other option? you don'
t get to assign meaning to anything?
mircea_popescu: anbd you get to decide which objects carry meanin and which don'
t and what it is ?
mike_c: sure, i can'
t count it. but fuck those 20 guys who did it for dumb reasons too.
mike_c: that doesn'
t mean there was no meaning to any of it.
danielpbarron: because the lgbt movement isn'
t about rights; it's the opposite: it's about forcing acceptance on others
mircea_popescu: so she's going to 4ever be remember as that nigger that didn'
t need em to have em :D
mircea_popescu: mike_c, my point is that you can'
t pretend like meaning is immanent. it's not.
mike_c: so what's your point? that I shouldn'
t care about other people's idiocy? or is it that it isn'
t stupid to be racist/homophobic.
mircea_popescu: if this isn'
t a sad exercise into becoming everything you've hated about the stupidity of your parents
danielpbarron: <+mike_c> well, relatively serious. is there some other reason you would refuse to use black figurines? << there needn'
t be any other reason; is it my business or not?
mike_c: some people "hate americans" and act accordingly. I think this is retarded, but it doesn'
t upset me. some people "hate homos" and act accordingly, yet this does upset me.
mircea_popescu: mike_c, i dunno dood, maybe you don'
t like the ingredients that have to be used to make it be black.
davout: i mean, the whole baker thing sounds pretty retarded anyway, if i went to a baker that refuses jews i wouldn'
t insist on giving him business
danielpbarron: yeah, clubs in NYC turn you away for having the "wrong shoes" which some argue is vailed racism (they are basically saying, blacks don'
t have nice shoes)
danielpbarron: mike_c, I am pro-slavery and I don'
t argue it from a racial point of view
davout: danielpbarron: in france we have this "refus de vente" offense, you can'
t just select your customers if you're selling to the general public
mike_c: "so what" is that a lot of people don'
t find racism/sexism/homophobia something to simply be ignored.
danielpbarron: just to clarify, I don'
t have a problem with blacks, but so what? if you don'
t like that someone hates blacks then don'
t do business with them
benkay: "don'
t transact with the masses"
danielpbarron: how is that discrimination? the rule isn'
t no black customers; it's no black figurines
TomServo: Isn'
t the real humor re: the gay cake the fact that this ruling occurred in a state in which gay marriage is illegal?
mircea_popescu: <benkay> re: gay bakery - don'
t ever tell anyone why you're refusing to do business with them. 'this just isn'
t a good deal for me. thanks for your interest. << hyou know this is how the VC circus was born right ? bankers thinking it imprident to laugh in the face of "businessmen"
