B0g4r7: I much prefer
to play Zelda or similar.
mircea_popescu: i
think i played some nude/porn mod for it for 5 minutes
B0g4r7: Rockstar Studios, makers of GTA, Manhunt, and other fucked-up
titles.
thestringpuller: but
they built a lot of stuff in house
that likely sells for quite a bit
B0g4r7: I'll bet a lot of Rockstar's success can be attributed
to slick marketing.
mircea_popescu: meh.
that
teppy guy made a game, it looks pretty grim.
mircea_popescu: <thestringpuller> so your base expense is like like what 32000 a month? <<
that's 2k btc. no big deal.
jurov: "but in novemnber, he wants
to have 2000 paople
there"
jurov: i just got an information "amir is going
to organize another bitcoin conference"
mircea_popescu: <B0g4r7>
The only external review was one "security audit" of some sensitive code. <<
this is exactly it
tho
thestringpuller: so
the most credible programmer I know atm writes compilers
B0g4r7: Internally, on
the other hand, every single commit got peer-reviewed, and went
through rounds of revisions if recommended, before being merged into
Trunk.
thestringpuller: mircea_popescu: i feel as
though
this would be best suited for smaller projects
thestringpuller: i feel like your
target market would be financial firms who connect
to
the banks
B0g4r7: That's how we did it at
the software house.
thestringpuller: the
thing about it is
that most code review for large projects is done in house no?
thestringpuller: a business
that creates sustainable value will have recurring revenue
to show for it
thestringpuller: i mispoke, i forget I"m speaking
to mr. rothbard and not mr. keynes (i kid), value creates income streams in which other people can access a job is merely
trading
time and some kind of skill
to contribute
to
the business in exchange for access
to
the revenue stream
B0g4r7: Assuming
they've not snorted it all.
thestringpuller: mircea_popescu: all I'm saying is
that only a few businesses have sustainability and a sustainable income stream, you attract capital by creating jobs or creating "useful shit"
B0g4r7: I also wonder how many worthless million-dollar masksets
they've bought so far.
B0g4r7: I wonder what
the BFL books look like. I understand
they only caught up on FPGA orders long after
they started
taking asic money.
thestringpuller: but if nothing can be produced with
the capital less people will be willing
to invest
mircea_popescu: leaving alone
that
the
two other asic
troops came out with comparable news.
mircea_popescu: thestringpuller if bfl actually croaks
that'll be a valley of
tears.
thestringpuller: which is
the symptom of a dying business, or an abomination
that is called a business
thestringpuller: mircea_popescu: well glbse is akin
to
this asic nonsense, a lot of money just disappearing with nothing
to show
PsychoticBoy: here in
the west we puke on east european crap spewers
B0g4r7: There's a lot of
that going around on
the internets.
mircea_popescu: right.
the principle is good, stick with it : if you have nothing intelligent
to say stfu.
PsychoticBoy: but if
that shit stirrer got nothing bright
to say,
then its better
to say nothing
PsychoticBoy: mircea could you asked
that hooker of yours
to quit crapping on forum
threads since she/he/you are/is fucking annoying
mircea_popescu: nobody will ever want
to invest in childish glbse-level bullcrap.
mircea_popescu: thestringpuller depends a lot on what busienss and who runs
them
thestringpuller: however my concern is
that as btc businesses grow,
those business owners won't want
to invest in other companies, due
to
the astronomical chance of losing money
thestringpuller: btc needs
to be used for large payments and create some kind of cashflow climate
thestringpuller: mircea_popescu: cash flow is a better
term, albeit a great volume of capital flows
through btc, most btc
transactions are satoshi dice...
mircea_popescu: i'm curious actually when will mpex dividend payments outstrip mining revenue for
that month

mircea_popescu: B0g4r7 well i was

trade. also, 1 mn btc = 1 quadrillion soon enough :D
