mircea_popescu: the over 50% that sent todd in a tizzy was also what's published.
kakobrekla: yes but its not a problem until you are at 50
kakobrekla: they supposedly turned off 20% of their power and total network is +11%
mircea_popescu: in fact, it's 11% over TWO WEEKS, when two days ago it was up 5%
mircea_popescu: but quite in line with the presumptious ignorance of redditards. they also think they know things about politics, and even imagine they influence it.
thestringpuller: do the redditards think they influenced the hash distribution?

thestringpuller: it seems beneficiary for people to see no? Is that more of a "Misc"?
mircea_popescu: not a matter of that dude, it just depends on how the bond is structured. as the bond is structured, so it is reported.

mircea_popescu: davout the supreme court does not offer advisory oppinions. it'll only consider cases where there's a real controversy.
davout: mircea_popescu: so you're saying there's no way to ask for clarification regarding a bet wording?
fluffypony: take him out for supper first before asking for his opinion
mircea_popescu: there's no way to pull clarification. mods might push it, but you can't rely on that
mircea_popescu: the only approach is to make bets clear an' stick to it.
davout: aren't mods supposed to enforce bet clarity?
pankkake: well then, why would anyone bet on the bet now?
mircea_popescu: but if i manage to hire some transcendents i might change it.
mircea_popescu: pankkake because they have a theory as to what it means.
davout: take this for example : "or if 30-day volume drops under 100 BTC. "
davout: volume taken from where ?
davout: refusing to clarify this, when asked well in advance doesn't really constitute best effort imo
mircea_popescu: "refusing to make me tortoise soup, when asked well in advance, doesn't constitute good mothership"
fluffypony takes out his list and crosses mircea_popescu off as potential mother figures
mircea_popescu: but srsly, the bet is not up for resolution. there's no effort to be put in.
davout: mircea_popescu: i'm not asking anyone to make me something, i'm asking how the bet resolves, clear resolvability is a desired property is it not?
mircea_popescu: desired it may be. it being desired does not by itself make it possible.
pankkake: but bitbet mods clarified bets in the past
davout: is it impossible today to decide whether the volume source will by X, Y, or Z ?
davout: "First and foremost, statements that can not univocally be established as either true or false at a certain point in the future are BadBets and as such unacceptable on BitBet."
mircea_popescu: davout well if you were to propose that bet now it'd get rejected im pretty sure.
davout: without a source for the "volume" information, it is not possible to univocally establish (vol > 100)
davout: i wouldn't really propose such a bet
pankkake: I can create a source for volume info, from the raw trade data
davout: mircea_popescu: so if it'd get rejected now, why do you insist it is not clarifiable?
mircea_popescu: that awkward moment when you write to a estudio de abogados named X, Y, Z and K and the next morning a reply awaits from Gonzalez X.

mircea_popescu: davout because it's not dude. what the fuck do i know what you'll be doing next. if you were going to change the thing';s name why da fuck did you bet on it as it is etc.
mircea_popescu: in any event, bitbet comes last in the sort. you don't change your actions by what bitbet says it's gonna do. you do what you do, then when the time comes bitbet looks at it and calls it something.
davout: well, because i'm like the bitbet mod, i didn't really realize it wasn't clear enough
mircea_popescu: that's unfortunate. but you're not like the bitbet mod, in that... well, in that you aren't.
punkman: davout, you could just keep bitcoin-central.net running until 2015 :P
davout: i'm just curious about the point behind not clarifying bets when their wording leave some space to ambiguity
davout: especially when it's brought up long in advance
mircea_popescu: because you gotta limit your touching the things. all business runs on the principle of limiting responsibility.
davout: what do you mean by "your touching the things" ?
mircea_popescu: bitbet reviews bets exactly twice : when they're entered, and when they're resolved.
mircea_popescu: can't follow around constantly reviewing and clarifying the wording every time reality twists some way or the other.
mircea_popescu: davout anyway, this is a solidly established principle of law, that a court won't review possibilities and implications,
davout: i don't know about other countries, but the law in france has this mechanism where whenever you need clarification on the law from the taxes administration, you can ask them to make a binding answer
mircea_popescu: you can definitely ask the king to tell you wtf it intends to do. because the king is a sovereign, and thus an agent, and thus can have intent.
pankkake: so the king is the bet author?
davout: apparently there's no king, bitbet is a court, in some sort of quantic superposition state
mircea_popescu: pankkake well strictly speaking davout's the king here lol.
davout: i'm simply asking whether there's milk or poison in the vial
mircea_popescu: you made the vial dood, what do you want from me. when the time to open it comes i'll feed it to a cat and let you know.
mircea_popescu: fluffypony hey, when were you talking about the summarizing thing ? was it the 12th ?

mircea_popescu: you tell me that you were here, and saw a local knockoff of a tin of camembert and you wouldn't have paid the $2.80 to see wtf is in there.

davout: when i saw it on your picture i was all like "such meat art de vivre"
mircea_popescu: in general you have to do a lot of customisation to make restaurant food fit for human consumption. in their view, serving a two pound steak with three ounces of sweet potato fried in oil, and then a pound of chocolate with dulce de leche mixed in is perfectly adequate asd a meal

mircea_popescu: they must not eat at home like in the restaurant or something.
davout: that's not very surprising, is it?

pankkake: the bitbet discussion was more painful
punkman: davout: (and i also wonder how aged beef tastes like, never had it) <- you can let a steak sit in your fridge a few days (or more if you are careful), it's usually an improvement
punkman: haven't tried that, sounds good
davout: pankkake: if it isn't painful it means it's probably not very useful either
davout: punkman: no, by aged, i mean really aged, like you have to cut the green parts off
mircea_popescu: it's not too hard : boil liver, grind it into a paste with butter and spices ; sear a steak, cover it in sauteed mushrooms and the liver paste ; make a dough, put the whole thing in it, seal and oven.
mircea_popescu: aging beef in dough is exactly thesame, sans liver (and mushrooms) and with much thicker dough : sear the steak, put it in a dough envelope, cook this and let it sit.
davout: it'll turn to ham right?
mircea_popescu: davout you can make a ham-y thing this way, if you add curing stuff inside, but just by itself it turns to...

Mostly though bacteria aren't adapted to combinations of them and it might take centuries for Bactrims list of vulnerable organisms to thing appreciably.
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo perhaps on the grounds of my ignorance, i see little value in the bacteriostatic / bactericide distinction
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: The distinction is -cidal actually kills the bacteria. -static keeps them from reproducing long enough to have enough die of old age or allow your immune system to catch up. When it comes to adpatation and resistance it matters quite a bit.

Then the tech or pharmacist scans a bottle of inventory, THEN shakes, quakes, and does a little magic dance to estimate how much is left in the bottle, be it 10%, 20%, etc., and then scans that barcode, hence the QUAKE-n-ZAP! Th
BingoBoingo: is is done multiple times until the tech either dies of boredom or it gets busy again. Usually this means about 50 zaps. THEN the computer compares what was scanned to the inventory on hand, and if it is off by a certain percentage, it updates the inventory on hand..."
BingoBoingo: "But here's where it gets insane. No one can accurately "estimate" how much is left in the bottle to any degree of accuracy, so we end up mostly only zapping full bottles."
