punkman, I think that gold bet was actually structured intelligently

TheNewDeal: I'd like it more if it said "yes if gold closes at $1200 or more on friday"

anyone could have checked the date, right?

00:52

sure

00:53

I'm not sure if it was an accident, or on purpose. However, if it were on purpose, I applaud the author for a well crafted bet

00:54

because it read so similar to a lot of those other bets, but like you said, it was basically "gold closes above 1200"

well scams are mostly targetted to the scammed. it's how that game works.

so if I spend the only unspent tx in the address for a new bundle, previous tx is gonna get dropped right

oh

13:10

yeah it is. you'll have to queue but not broadcast the next tx until this one gets included.

this sounds bad but it is acutally good, because it gives us a method to manage the problem. ie, to distinguish between accidental and "we really should increase tx size"

in retrospect though i probably could have negotiated half up front and charged another 25%.

16:26

nope. there's still painters around. shit, the 'web even gave rise to a whole new generation of amateurs and among them do progress to professional

16:27

i've learned this lesson - again.

16:28

bounce your argument that "there's still deluded idiots pretending that "painter" is an adequate synonym for "bum" " fails to support your earlier assertion that "photography hasn't killed painting".

16:40

i can find even more astrologers taking comissions, does this mean astrology is alive and well ?

16:40

similarly, plenty people snapshotting and not producing anything good, yet there's still a few who manage to produce decent photographs.

16:40

heck, i can probably find people soliciting to protect the us from alien invasion.

16:41

has astrology declined in influence?

16:41

what's your measure of influence ?

16:41

it has exactly no influence as i measure it.

16:41

so it was never important to you

16:41

no, no. it was never important, as i measure it.

16:41

that's not "to me".

16:43

that's only four generations, to span 500 years. I'm impressed.

16:43

i suppose since nancy reagan was hiring court astrologers the argument can be brought that the colonies were slower on the uptake, but be that as it may...

16:44

bacon killed astrology pretty much.

16:47

mircea_popescu: astrology is alive and well - under new brands (e.g., 'economics')

16:47

bounce anyway, to summarize : the discussion as to whether a profession is doing ok or not, or even is still alive, can not rely on a discussion on they who call themselves followers.

16:47

mircea_popescu: it cannot die for so long as so-called decision makers want their 'responsibility sink' mechanism.

16:47

asciilifeform but a claim is not a fact.

16:48

claim is not a fact << when talking about a scam, the claim is the fact (that is, the fact of the scam being set up as such or other)

16:49

but i thought we were talking about the fact.

16:49

'responsibility sink' is simply my shorthand for any apparatus which lets you 'make a decision' without putting your arse on the line as decision-maker.

16:50

asciilifeform yes yes, all the benefits of being a prince in terms of the harem girls' awe, none of the risks in terms of the other dudes beheading you. i know all about the mental processes supporting adolescent frottage

16:50

this, afaik, goes back maxint years.

16:50

there's a market for hand-painted portraits just as there is a market for professionally-done photographs. the argument re the latter is that the marketeering is busily making the required machinery unaffordable. my point was the mechanism at work.

16:50

not so many. just as many as poorly managed youth existed. it's a lengthy history full of gaps.

16:51

bounce what is this market for "professionally done photographs", wherein the definition of "professionally" is coherent with pre-digital photography ?

16:51

"policy driven fact finding" (see david nutt's firing)

16:51

who says pre-digital?

16:51

you.

16:51

no,

16:52

then yes, there's a market for marketing-approved photography.

16:52

re: photographers: situation is rather like bulldozer operators. machine costing half of a plebe's yearly pay. you rent it, and it happens to come with operator who is mostly certain not to break it, and knows approximately which knobs to turn to dig the ditch, err, snap the photo.

16:52

to argue that marketing is doing this in is absurd.

16:53

hmhm yet it's doing it, as a side effect of its market research and segmentation science.

16:54

your argumetn feels to me like saying since homosexuality is marketing-trending there are no real fags anymore

16:54

but by definition it can not. whatever it comes up with is actually the marketing-approved photography and all is well.

16:54

that's another thing. does not mean the real ones died out

16:55

professional photographers must have difficulty finding their ilk, too

16:55

might mean that, actually.

16:57

bounce anyway, so stated our dispute boils down to me saying that it is upon you either to present an outside criteria or else yield. (which is why i assumed your criteria is presented, and summarized it as "pre digital"). my point generally is that you can't present any meaningful criteria anyway.

16:57

so, no, it's no longer a profession. it's dead as its own thing, no matter who does what to whom.

16:58

it wasn't so dead at some point in 1920, of course, but that only to us. i'm sure in 1920 some similar dispute raged, either about draughstmanship or some other sort of engraving.

16:58

professions die all the damned time.

16:58

there is another 'secret' - and that is, that most folks who actually need 40+MP photographs in real life - astronomers, spies, biologists, weirdos like yours truly, etc. - own and operate own hardware. and don't actually need photographers.

16:59

nor are they professional.

16:59

just like the plumber using silicone curing isn't a silicone professional in any sense.

17:00

"criteria" is plural, by the by. my takeaway is that I'm running into a bunch of preconceptions that make the discussion quite meaningless, so I'll yield while disagreeing.

17:00

aha.

17:00

bounce i'd much prefer you taking them apart.

17:00

mircea_popescu has a penchant for watching notions dieing a grizzly death in the field.

17:02

then...does any distiguished profession exist anymore?

17:02

sometimes the death of a profession is not all smiles. i once saw a rant lamenting the invention of LaTeX as a terrible calamity for mathematics. argument was that, whereas it was once possible for mathematicians (and physicists) to remain entirely innocent of typograpy and its brute labours, now the typographers gave up and went home. and now you (maths folks) also are stuck being typographers - and generally, no

17:02

jurov writing still does im pretty sure.

17:03

... typographers - and generally, not particularly good ones.

17:03

generally the computer revolution has killed the outskirts and "empowered" the pure forms.

"Digital photography today is another victim of the dead hand of marketing, where short term gain overrides any other concern. Broadly speaking, marketing has created two types of camera. There are those with small chips that are cheap increasingly incorporated into a cell phone have a rubbish lens, need no skill to operate and therefore teach the user nothing. And then there are those cameras with big chips th

17:19

at are so expensive that even professionals cringe. Its like owning a jumbo jet: you cant afford not to fly it, hence the constant references to workflow in the marketing. Alas, in between these two types we find the equivalent of a valence band or forbidden zone." << this has nothing to do with marketing.

17:19

this is absolutely the rule of the world. why do you think there's monkeys and humans, and nothing in between ? author ever heard of punctuated equilibrium ?

17:19

computers have worked exactly that same way, too. there's people who cli and then there's the hopeless horde looking for the any key. there's nothing in between, nor should there be, and kids learning to "program for the web" aren't ever going to become professionals.

17:21

money works the same way, there's us and there's reddit, and there's no real path for the redditard to get in the wot. sure, he could, but as the article says, "The small chip camera owner cannot cross the forbidden zone for 30 BTC reasons, and even if he did, he wouldnt have the necessary skills."

the reason is that once you broadcast a tx, you no longer have control of it.

"Yes, but that's a common problem with ANY "socialist" measure to help workers, whether it be minimum wage or full blown communism, or anything in between. Global capitalism is a race to the bottom. If we keep playing that game, I see nothing but a dystopian future of neofuedalism and a regression to gilded age economic policies."

<mircea_popescu> the "profession" of photography is not evolving towards going back to film cameras. it's evolving towards drone cameras. they find the right spot on their own, fly around, take a bunch of photos for you etc. << the "red" cameras are another interesting evolution here. by my limited understanding 'filmmakers' are in the habit of blanketing the scene with them and then making zooms/pans/dolly actions happen in post

so it's a safe if not ironclad assumption

22:16

heh, "hosted bitcoin mining services", moar like 99%

22:17

>Our Bitcoin supercomputers with a quasi-opportunistic massively parallel computing model for job scheduling establish a new exascale class - well beyond FLOPS and MIPS

22:17

eh?

22:18

lol

22:18

if that's from their copy, then that nudges the probability of scam up a few orders of magnitude

22:19

lmao

22:19

the shit techcrunch will publish these days seriously...

22:19

it's embarassing.

[MPEX] [S.MPOE] 15100 @ 0.00076201 = 11.5064 BTC [-] {2}

22:20

at any rate, I think some of the miners that have delivered were working on 20 nm stuff

22:20

so it's highly dubious that a 16nm process is going to be massively better

22:21

;;later tell nubbins` did the poster ship okay? it never crossed over the border ~_~

22:21

The operation succeeded.

22:22

decimation nah, the gains are likely to come from bettere design not from better substrate going forward

22:23

heck, even intel pretty much scrapped the smaller-print plans

22:23

agreed. who knows about the existing designs, but I doubt that massive gains are available there either (more than 10x)

22:23

i would expect so.

22:23

they're currently the product of basically copy paste.

22:24

less money has gone into design than into production, imagine that. with stable silicon producers it's more like, 99% goes into design

22:24

heh I bet they are implementations of the original gpu mining code

22:24

mostly.

22:24

nah

22:25

in any case time shall tell.

22:26

firstly sha cant be endlessly optimized and my educated guess, better than sexy gingers, is that its pretty much as good as it will get

22:26

22:26

at any rate, I don't think we will see "steps" like we saw from gpu to asic, for example

22:26

lol

fury already spent some years on this

that was a fpga neh ?

22:29

did liek 350 mhash on spartan when others were doing 200

22:29

yes, but the math is the same

22:29

kakobrekla i can appreciate this view. nevertheless, from a businessman persepective, the people who don't give a shit, it's one year, five months.

22:29

that's not much. looks like plenty of room is left.

22:30

unless you improve the math how sha is calculated, not really

mebbe so.
