somebody caught on to the trick. dump a bunch of money in early and kill the late guys. a good move. |
00:57 |
mike_c |
oh wait, "somebody" :) http://bitbet.us/stats/1K4FswVNus5xJZJ6TYqAzWSy3tXBBFdGnM/ |
00:58 |
chsados |
mike_c: what is he doing exactly? |
00:58 |
mike_c |
you get a bunch of money in early, at a high weight. |
00:58 |
mike_c |
when more money comes in late, at a low weight, you make money. |
00:59 |
chsados |
it seems like he is betting heavy on both sides though - how does that become profitable |
00:59 |
mike_c |
if a lot of money comes in both sides it works out. if it goes heavily slanted one way the whole time, not so much. |
01:00 |
mike_c |
or if there just isn't any action, then you'll lose out on the fees. |
01:02 |
mike_c |
so it's basically a wager on "this bet will be popular" |

TAT what is your problem with me and Diablo-D3 |

anyway, nobody has to be a slave. it's a voluntary arrangement, and it has its advantages. chief among which that you're about 10x as quick to learn as a slave. |

"That feature has lead to an inflationary bubble in bitcoin-to-dollar trading, with prices fluctuating largely from one day to the next.

mike_c they do this thing where they announce a "starting bid" but it's not the actual starting bid |
14:41 |
mircea_popescu |
i've seen this. |
14:42 |
jborkl |
Mike, it does not matter if he is trustworthy- just have dooglus hold the escrow |
14:42 |
mircea_popescu |
in this parallel universe you can have an auction with a "starting bid" of 1 and a "reserve" of 10 which means that unless it reaches 10 the item doesn't sell. |
14:42 |
mike_c |
ok, thanks |
14:42 |
pankkake |
well, that's the ebay universe |
14:42 |
mike_c |
mircea_popescu: sometimes they take the reserve off if it isn't met |
14:42 |
pankkake |
secret reserves are so annoying |
14:42 |
mike_c |
so there can be value in bidding under the reserve |
14:42 |
mircea_popescu |
mike_c should be a crime if you ask me. |
14:43 |

yeah, its dumb |

i'll beat that story : a major romanian retailer bought ~100 laptops off a competitor, which the competitor was selling discounted, |
14:45 |
mircea_popescu |
to return on their own (more permissive) return policy. |
14:45 |
pankkake |
but it's also how you sell it. if you're a trusted seller, have nice pics, description, it gets higher |
14:45 |
mircea_popescu |
this was done by the actual owner packing the laptops in his own personal car. |
14:46 |
mircea_popescu |
i think the total loot for this grand scheme was around 5k or so. |
14:46 |

stephengandel if your budged is in the bitcoin range, and your technical sophistication low you are best served by a bitcoin. |

14:58 |

"By making their product or artwork display neotenous traits, designers attempt to sway people to enjoy or desire their product because it appears childish, adorable, soft or otherwise desirable. By making a product cute, the nucleus accumbens in the human brain is targeted and elicits a protective or coddling response, which encourages an individual to acquire (purchase) said item. By designing items, characters, food |
16:35 |

or anything else in this manner, product designers attempt to create the same reaction to a product that a human baby could create." |

18:24 |
mircea_popescu |
snackman it's not a nickname dood. that's my name. |
18:25 |
mircea_popescu |
jamespeerless the reason is that we're oldfags, which means rich, which means with a lot of old coinbases, which means tx are free. or something. |
18:25 |
jamespeerless |
what do you mean? why would they be free |
18:26 |
mircea_popescu |
the prioritization of txs takes into account the concept of "bitcoin days destroyed" |
18:26 |
mircea_popescu |
that's the product of a coinbase's volume with its age. |
18:26 |
snackman |
truffles: because my transaction was not confirmed in time |
18:26 |
snackman |
truffles: it was placed on the correct bet though |
18:26 |
mircea_popescu |
so if you have 1k btc that weren't moved for 3 years, you get about 1mn times the priority of a 1btc that was moved yest. |
18:26 |
jamespeerless |
got it |
18:26 |
jamespeerless |
makes sense |
18:27 |
truffles |
snackman gotta read fine prints |
18:27 |
mircea_popescu |
in principle it's good for the network to keep moving coins around, i suspect. |

mircea_popescu |
it's one of the points i don't quite grasp tbh |
18:28 |
snackman |
truffles: they weren't, they were FAQs, and i never agreed to them, also this particular clause was *surprising*, therefore not applicable for yet another reason |
18:28 |
mircea_popescu |
kakobrekla well because of the particular design, seems implicit in it. |

Hey MP, how bout a compromise, put "Late Bets Will Be Retained" or such on the Send Bitcoins page of bitbet |
| |
↖ |
18:28 |
snackman |
mircea_popescu is only not returning them because he assumes that it is unlikely that i will sue him in romania |
18:28 |
truffles |
so ur situation was outside of terms ? |
18:28 |
mircea_popescu |
ThickAsThieves the problem with this approach is that 1. it empowers nonsense and 2. it bloats pages. |
18:28 |

faqs are accepted to form contract |
18:28 |

18:28 |
dub |
interestingly educatoin in .us and .ro sucks somewhat equally |
18:29 |
mike_c |
i always took the priority the opposite, that is - it is discouraging moving coins too much by giving recently spent coins lower priority |
18:29 |
kakobrekla |
mircea_popescu not like you can mitigate it |
18:29 |
snackman |
Vexual: yes, if they explicitely ask you to confirm them, which they didnt |
18:29 |
dub |
though dumb romanians are smarter than dumb americans |
18:29 |
snackman |

18:29 |
mircea_popescu |
mike_c when i say move coins around i mean, not have very old coinbases. |
18:29 |
ThickAsThieves |
so you dont think "reasonable man" is a concept to consider? |
18:29 |
snackman |
? |
18:29 |
ThickAsThieves |
a reasonable man would likely assume his bet would either be valid at the time of sending, or refunded at a fee |
18:29 |
Vexual |
a reasonable man reads the contract |
18:30 |
snackman |
mircea_popescu has forgotten the current btc price, making my loss around 12000 usd, making it more than worth pursing a lawyer. also for the satisfaction of seeing this bastard lose in court |
18:30 |

snackman i get what ure saying, id already have refunded u if it were my biz though, gl |
18:30 |
ThickAsThieves |
a reasonable contract typically wouldnt have snares |

mircea_popescu |
ThickAsThieves a reasonable man would not send bitcoin on the basis of his assumptions. |

19:45 |

it was the plan, or it became the plan |

19:48 |
mircea_popescu |
asciilifeform originally this started as a hobbyst project. |
19:48 |
mircea_popescu |
people don't have 10k laying around the house. |
19:49 |
mircea_popescu |
consequently, the first fpga's were pretty much a potluck affair |
19:49 |
mircea_popescu |
that system worked |
19:49 |
mircea_popescu |
(everyone delivered, even bfl) |
19:49 |
mircea_popescu |
it was stretched past its usability into insanity by a desperate desire and need for stability. bitcoin doesn't offer much of that, |
19:49 |
mircea_popescu |
so people naturally tried to stick to what works |
19:50 |
mircea_popescu |
that's pretty much the story of how we ended up with the insanity. |
19:51 |
mircea_popescu |
Kleeck_ people fail to correctly value reputations. |
19:51 |
Kleeck_ |
There is some truth to that, mircea_popescu. |
19:52 |
mircea_popescu |
there's a lot of truth to it. let's lay it out : bozo comes in when bitcoin is 1 year old, can start a reputation within a week and be doing business within am onth. |
19:52 |
mircea_popescu |
he imagines the value of this is 1 month. |
19:52 |
mircea_popescu |
two years later, he needs to be 1 year+ old to be even considered, because now bitcoin is 4 years old. |
19:52 |
BingoBoingo |
Seems for Litecoin devotees this insanity is going to be magnified as CoinDesk has just reprinted so many people's "press releases" about impending litecoin ASICs and if a single manufacterer delivers it will have meant Litecoin skipped that awkward FPGA adolescence while still staying a fraction of a fraction of bitcoin |
19:53 |
mircea_popescu |
he goes on forum as a week old and is shocked at how mean people are, telling him to do 6 motynhs + of reading before he opens his mouth again |
19:53 |
mircea_popescu |
somewhere in there he failed to account for the fact that having kept his reputation intact for those two years is just about as valuable as having kept his bitcoins for two years. |

still seems like a rather larger collision space than some well known short domain names |
