gribble: Error: This nick is not registered. Please register.
mircea_popescu: and so they stop by the irc chan and have a chat ?
jcpham: but they don't have a clue what to do
jcpham: and they want to cause havok
jcpham: well let's say eric's pc is exploited and the people don't know how to use mpex
mircea_popescu: what sort of uber rootkit you'd have to have on your system for that 1...
mircea_popescu: gave a moment's pause there cause wtf, someone is signing as mpex wioth the wrong key ?!
mircea_popescu: and i guess this should be fixed, yeah. confuses ppls.
evoorhees: yeah.... see that's a problem if the link on the site takes you to python download page and 3.3 is at the top
mircea_popescu: ow shit you know what, i think it's 2.x line
mircea_popescu: jcpham but i mean tech questions ? why not ? public knowledge, or should be.
evoorhees: I uninstalled it, went back to 2.7, and then added gnupg
smickles: well, the way things are going, it might be illegal to know how to use pympex, and this "evoorhees" is a fed :o
mircea_popescu: im the only one who could give too much info neh ?
jcpham: and allow it to get worse
jcpham: nd you guys give him too much info somehow
jcpham: i wouldn't want someone to be impersonating him
mircea_popescu: jesus this -l stuff is nice. who came up with it ?
smickles: you need to install gnupg
mircea_popescu: lol evoorhees sounds like he's in the middle of a real battle there.
mod6: i would say to also check that key ring to make sure that you see this keyid for mpex: 9214FC6BF1B69921 -- in unix its `gpg --list-keys --keyid-format=long`
evoorhees: can't bloody copy text from the cmd prompt
mircea_popescu: smickles do they use " or ' on win ? i recall jurov established the right one
mod6: the windows part has me geeked out... I'm not even sure how to execute gpg on windows lol
mircea_popescu: jcpham seems mostly "how to use pympex" neh ?
jcpham: at this point
smickles: prolly easier just to run it from the folder
smickles: you can run it from that folder, or you can grab the setup file and install it
mircea_popescu: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=138988.0 seems diceoncrack ddosed too
evoorhees: now... when I downloaded the "mpex.py" file, do I need to put it anywhere?
evoorhees: will try that smickles, one min
evoorhees: mircea I have no idea what you're talking about :)
smickles: evoorhees: try with the '-l' option
smickles: oh, the newer one has a logger
mircea_popescu: if all else fails email me a clearsigned STAT and i'll have it looked at from this end
evoorhees: I've tried signing with both of the email keys I use
mircea_popescu: a ? ok then.
mircea_popescu: a different one might have been picked as tghe default
mircea_popescu: evoorhees mod6 has a point. are you signing with the right key ?
smickles: mpex-bin may have the old address coded in
evoorhees: and I get further in the process, but still an error
evoorhees: I've also tried https://github.com/ageis/MPEx-bin
mod6: and maybe since you just re-installed, make sure that all is well with the mpex public key on the keyring...
smickles: 'cause after that warning, there rest of the code is basically if reply == '': return none
smickles: what is mpex retruning to you that causes a syntax error?
mircea_popescu: clearsign a stat, then encrypt it, then paste iti nto the site
smickles: is there any output after the warning lines?
mircea_popescu: evoorhees you should try going through the thing by hand.
evoorhees: not sure.. how do I tell?
evoorhees: hmmm lemme try something, one min
smickles: either mpex is signing with the wrong key, or someone else is signing it
smickles: if you are getting a signed response, and that warning happens, something fishy is going on
evoorhees: yeah it does say that mircea
mircea_popescu: evoorhees look in mpex.py, does the 10th or so line read
evoorhees: yeah I do now... had to reformat computer so I'm going through process again
smickles: do you get it every time?
smickles: that warning means that the data from mpex wasn't signed by mpex
Bugpowder: if your default key is not the mpex one
Bugpowder: I had to change to code to specify the key
smickles: what's the issue?
evoorhees: I'm trying mpex.py STAT command, and it's not working
smickles: mircea_popescu: i've never done that sort of thing, the mac machine i have access too is too old and depreciated, and the windows macine i have access to is annoyingly slow and I don't want to use it.
mircea_popescu: or jurov or who else is in the github there ?
mircea_popescu: i think aegis' stuff is out of date.
mircea_popescu: smickles hey, any way you could recompile the windows/macosx binaries for pympex ?
mircea_popescu: it's not immediately obvious, but it ruins it more often than not.
mircea_popescu: if a company is oversold on ipo that's usually a very bad thing for the company.
smickles: I mean to get at why you're inf...oh, i read that as infuriated
smickles: so you think the method is supressing the share price?
mircea_popescu: the faster the 0-infinity window is closed the better.
mircea_popescu: market price of asset to touch real price of asset as soon as possible.
smickles: bring as much money to the company as possible?
smickles: mircea_popescu: what do you see as the goal of an ipo?
smickles: well, i meant the price chart just happens to look like a lognormal distribution
mircea_popescu: it's an entire topic in finance this, how to best do ipos
mircea_popescu: i took it to mean the variance is lognormal
kakobrekla: goes towards 0 no?
mircea_popescu: smickles totally. im so infatuated with that ipo system...
mircea_popescu: total btc traded / transaction count
smickles: average tx, 22 btc. mircea_popescu what sort of average is that?
mircea_popescu: i can tell by the feverish pitch forum hate is reaching.
mircea_popescu: a decent start to the year.
smickles: yeah, all mpex related thingies were nice this month :)
smickles: oh, and you could add in the mpbor returns
smickles: plus, with the spot on move of the other one during that rise to 19, I actually came out ahead overall
smickles: it would have if you discounted the initial testing of the short calls
smickles: I'm sure it's just confirmation bias, but I believe it's true based on first hand expiremental evidence
smickles: "Called the Ballmer Peak, it was discovered by Microsoft in the late 80's. The cause is unknown, but somehow a blood alcohol content between 0.129% and 0.138% confers superhuman programming ability"
mircea_popescu: what's that ?
smickles: i am on a puzzler of a problem to solve
smickles: hmm, do I shoot for the balmer peak, or not?
jcpham: i'm going tostart using those firewall things one day
jcpham: i'm calling that router stable
smickles: this section of code (which i am refactoring) is like that first stalker (sc2 unit) warped in which somehow lasts through 45 minutes of engagements, only to fall to the last zergling b/f the other guy gg's
