jurov: my brain is shutting down,
too late
jurov: no it was 0.1->1.5 btc
that's "lessthan 4000" with win odds of 6.1% ...still
jurov: winning 0.1->12.5 btc is equivalent
to "lessthan 512" with win odds of 0.7813%
smickles: last i checked i had less
than 5
mircea_popescu: but if you apply l'hospital you can calculate
the odds
jurov: what are
the odds
to
turn 0.1 btc into a lunch
three
times in row?
mircea_popescu: but anyway, i don't
think
there's any bug, just variance.
jurov: or if rg's broken arithmetic is paying him lunches, i wanna some
too
jurov: so
this is what i have. or am i really a conspiration nut?
jurov: right below
that is link
to "shareholders on welfare" article
that is dated October 22
smickles: was
this b/f or after rg learned simple arithmetic </jk>
jurov: dunno which day
that was, should be sometime in october
jurov: <rg> [21:13:48] and
turn it into 1.5
jurov: <rg> [21:13:44] i
take like .1 btc
jurov: <rg> [21:13:39]
that's what i use satoshidice for now
jurov: <rg> [21:13:00] it was meant
to send me .8 btc if it was a winner
jurov: <rg> [21:12:37] hm i
think satoshidice just messed up
smickles: heh, scumbag memory, well, if you do come across something like a money losing bug, i'd like
to know :)
jurov: scumbag memory.
there isn't anyhing in logs.
jurov: dunno. my memory
tries
to convince me
there was some sd leak last month
smickles: 'cause i don't
think
that bug cost
them any money
smickles: jurov: are you
talking about
the delay payment of winnings bug?
smickles: didn't it lose (hundreds|thousands) each month for a couple of months straight at
the beginning?
smickles: seems
to me
that
this recent dividend shows it's all going according
to plan
jurov: mircea, i remember rg boasting he is getting some bitcoins off sd
that shouldn't be
there
jurov: no,
there was a bug
FabianB: too many ppl won at s.dice
this month?
jurov: he should made a raffle for
that 1 satoshi
mircea_popescu: there's no practical way
to do better
than
that
tho, so.
mircea_popescu: if you had enough shares
to qualify you got one (or more) else you got nothing
mircea_popescu: so we
talked and he sent 100. 94 of
these were actually distributed, 6 were lost in rounding
jurov: mircea_popescu, just
to nitpick, who got
the recent s.dice dividend ? it wasn't exactly divisible number :)
mircea_popescu: myeah. kakobrekla you'll have
to make an answer
to
that
thing, it's ruining you.
jurov: but i did not suspect such wholesale scam,
then
jurov: since he wasn't able
to clearly explain me here how can one
trade currencies with pure BTC balance and without need for any hedging, maybe you remember
jurov: i wasn't going
to invest
there anyway
jurov: dunno, maybe
they rolled 'em
together with carpet and hauled away, ya know
jurov: that was
the reply
jurov: <kakobrekla> [00:14:01] i showed
that posts
to my superior,
teh boss, he was rolling of
the floor.
jurov: and I put myself
the FSA Registration# from bit4x site into FSA form and it was assigned
to some other company
that went defunct in 2004
smickles_: < jurov> so, did kakobrekla at least
to
try
to shed some light on
the accusations somehow? <<< whatnow?
jurov: so, did kakobrekla at least
to

the accusations somehow?
FabianB_: standards bodies are usually
too slow
mircea_popescu: yeah. anyway
the only one with a prayer given
that
there's no standards body and compliance is voluntary
FabianB_: earlier protocols like smtp were(are) very easy
to use for humans
too
FabianB_: wondering if
there are papers on designing protocols for both computers/humans
mircea_popescu: that's not forbidden. but it would be weird
to require exchanges
to accept both json and xml imput
mircea_popescu: FabianB_ moreover,
the spec is not restrictive. some exchange might decide
to implement STATXML
too
FabianB_: well, yeah, by hand it's nicer
than json
FabianB_: even if with so few commands and payload it's easy
to parse |foo|bar|baz
FabianB_: just doesn't seem polished enough
to qualify as standard yet
FabianB_: yeah, am fine with
this being mpex protocol
mircea_popescu: otherwise
this exists as internal stuff for about a year now
mircea_popescu: well yes, since it was being discussed on
the forum i wrote up a proposal
FabianB_: mircea_popescu: why are you standardising now
that you start using json with one returning json and all other non-json?
dub: which can be applied
to 'act of stupidity causes loss'
Chaang-Noi: same with intersango and
their bitcoinica stuff
Chaang-Noi: it is hard for me
to
think he acidently so much
Chaang-Noi: with nefario it is really hard
to dell
the differance between criminal and just being so fucking retarded...
dub: thats where netardio was building
the future of bitcoin right?
PsychoticBoy: should have kicked some guys in
the nuts when I had
the chance in London
gribble: DeadTerra was last seen in #bitcoin-assets 1 week, 3 days, 20 hours, 9 minutes, and 56 seconds ago: <DeaDTerra> but I agree
there are
to much drama and BS
jurov: 17 Feb 2004 Final Dissolution Notice.. so venetfx's FSA number is completely fake,
too
jurov: it belongs
to some completely different entity with defunct website, dates of registration 2001 and 2003
jurov: tried
to research venetfx's FSA registration #194835
thestringpuller: some guy on
the forums said he'd promise
to buy btc's at 11 back in july
jurov: but
then, what's your point?
jurov: oh i misunderstood you. i
thought you're
talking
that "FIX also encloses numbers in quotes"
jurov: mircea_popescu, i just did random research and it appears not
true
mircea_popescu: jurov : did you know
the FIX protocol also uses string representations of integers btw ?
jurov: interesting
that practically everyone who wants
to sell s.mpoe put
the order below 0.0005
jurov: am i
the only one in
this whole mess who has unit
tests AND audit script
to backward-verify
the balances?
Diablo-D3: a payout script like
that would
take
three seconds
to do
thestringpuller: the halloween futures changed
the market conditions yesterday
mircea_popescu: realyl,
the only month it lost money was
the pirate august
thing.
thestringpuller: mircea_popescu: if
the annual gains out pace
the annual losses wouldnt it be a net gain? so
the bot breaks even annually?
mircea_popescu: i used
to
think
the mpcd series was, but
that blew up.
mircea_popescu: well, mpoe bonds can make a loss, so
they're not really safe in
that sense.
thestringpuller: and
the last bond i bought defaulted because people are idiots
