00:01 mircea_popescu seems to me like someone likely ran off with a wallet.
00:01 mircea_popescu curious if this ends up going the way of btcxchange
00:02 cazalla well, the wallet that was last audited has been empty since early dec
00:04 decimation the bid/ask spread on eur/usd spot runs about 3 to 4 mili-cents (w/comission)
00:05 decimation for mar 2015 Euro Futures, price 1.1949 with a 32k volume
00:08 decimation to buy a call that expires 15 jan on the mar 2015 future, for a strike price of 1.19 costs $0.0096
00:09 mircea_popescu don't do options on futures, do spot options.
00:12 Fun mircea_popescu: whats the difference?
00:12 mircea_popescu that one is an option on the future and the other on the spot o.O
00:12 mircea_popescu what's the difference between apple pie and pineapple pie ?
00:14 decimation yeah I'm trying to find the options on spot (seems it would be easier) but I am having trouble
00:15 decimation lol
00:15 mircea_popescu irrespective of widespread belief to the contrary, im pretty sure no entity currently can value options on forex futures
00:16 decimation they certainly exist
00:16 mircea_popescu the catholic church also "exists"
00:16 decimation are you implying that markov chains are doing what they do?
00:16 mircea_popescu in the sense that one can hang himself from it.
00:17 decimation actually options on spot probably don't exist, come to think on it
00:17 mircea_popescu look at the math involved sometime in an idle hour, but from a fundamental perspective, none of that "this is hw it's done because it's how it's done" circularity.
00:18 decimation like, why would you pay to deliever something that's only valued today?
00:18 mircea_popescu uh ?!
00:19 decimation I guess my point is that a promise to deliver a euro tomorrow isn't a spot price
00:19 * BingoBoingo kind of really wants kakobrekla to write an "I told you so" piece on Bitstamp
00:19 mircea_popescu this is true
00:20 thestringpuller http://bitcoinobituaries.com/
00:20 thestringpuller Bitcoin has died 23 times
00:20 mircea_popescu but an option to deliver tomorrow an euro deliverable next week is a whole other layer of nutso.
00:20 decimation yeah fair point
00:21 decimation so weirdly my brokerage doesn't appear to have spot (freestyle?) forex options, only options on futures
00:21 decimation it does appear that forex is a very specialized thing that varies widely with brokerage
00:21 mircea_popescu yes but use an option for mar on the mar future.
00:21 decimation !up Fun
00:22 Fun they package stuff to confuse people imo
00:22 mircea_popescu rather than a jan option on the mar future.
00:22 Fun derivative on top of derivative
00:22 mircea_popescu Fun noobs have a reputation of wishing to get involved in the most complex end of any matter first thing.
00:22 mircea_popescu this is no different.
00:23 assbot [MPEX] [S.MPOE] 17250 @ 0.00064849 = 11.1865 BTC [+] {4}
00:23 Fun I was watching RBK today, chairmain of Russian Commerce Chamber was going on that some russian companies need to refinance tons of mid term debt soon in what I presume usd :) I was thinking here that sounds fishy how come they havent hedged FX risk from the start
00:23 Fun :)
00:23 mircea_popescu Fun because a) it costs money and b) they don't care, because it's not really their problem.
00:24 Fun more of b they hope gov will tell some bank to bail them out
00:24 decimation k. a Mar 15 call for a march euro strike 1.19 costs 0.0221 and a put costs 0.0172
00:24 Fun 0.02 is cheap
00:24 mircea_popescu uptrend huh.
00:25 Fun those are 125,000 lots so say 1% move is 1,250 gain?
00:25 mircea_popescu no dude.
00:25 mircea_popescu if it goes to 1.2121 you break even
00:25 Fun but it may well outperform strike price
00:26 mircea_popescu if it outperforms it by 2 cents and 21 hundredths you make money.
00:26 Fun atm 1.1939
00:26 Fun I see
00:27 Fun there is some vol on 11800.0
00:28 Fun march 2015
00:30 Fun so say 0.10 gain minus 0.0281 thats 0.7 approx * 125.000 right?
00:30 Fun 0.0281 option cost
00:31 mircea_popescu i like people who pretend their convenient misunderstanding is more powerful than reality.
00:32 decimation the bid/ask spread on that mar 15 call runs about ~0.007
00:32 Fun mircea_popescu: what do u mean? feel free to correct calculations
00:33 mircea_popescu i have, above.
00:35 assbot [MPEX] [S.MPOE] 7009 @ 0.00064576 = 4.5261 BTC [-]
00:35 Fun there is option cost per lot
00:35 Fun and strike price
00:35 Fun ok u think price wont change that much?
00:38 Fun decimation: 0.007 is fine imo
00:43 thestringpuller "You know you've done things right when people don't think you've done anything at all"
00:44 mircea_popescu http://blog.khersonus.com/2014/first-bitcoin-otc-rating/ meanwhile gone ?
00:44 mircea_popescu i fucking hate webrot.
00:44 mircea_popescu ;;seen khers oh what's the use
00:44 thestringpuller more precisely "When you do things right, people won't be sure you've done anything at all."
00:44 Fun :)
00:44 ben_vulpes wah jesus that's a scrollback
00:45 Fun ;;gpg eregister Fun 1E42DA89AA22D605
00:45 thestringpuller wow there isn't even a google cache
00:45 thestringpuller Fun: gribble is on vacation
00:45 thestringpuller blame nanotube :D
00:45 Fun lol
00:45 Fun so how do people register to talk here? ":
00:46 Fun :)
00:46 thestringpuller as of now you don't
00:46 Fun cool
00:46 Fun makes sense
00:46 * thestringpuller screams nanotube like Kirk sceams Khan.
00:47 Fun decimation: which broker do u use?
00:47 decimation td ameritrade
00:47 Fun thats a big one
00:47 Fun strange they dont offer whole range to you
00:47 Fun decimation: also options prices seems so cheap
00:47 Fun maybe I am missing something?
00:47 decimation they are known for their platform
00:48 Fun yes
00:48 Fun canuck bank :D
00:52 ben_vulpes !up fun
00:52 ben_vulpes man how long can we keep this juggling act up?
00:53 Apocalyptic it's gonna be a while
00:56 Fun or change assbot rules?
00:56 Fun :D
00:57 thestringpuller Apocalyptic: you think gribble won't be back for a few days? Weeks?
00:57 thestringpuller This is personally the longest I've ever seen gribble AWOL.
00:58 Apocalyptic same here
00:58 ben_vulpes pretty impressed that single point of failure went this long without failing.
00:58 ben_vulpes i hope everyone's been taking backups of the db.
00:59 decimation it's odd that gribble died the same time that bitstamp was hacked
01:01 Fun not odd related
01:01 thestringpuller ben_vulpes: the back up is on OTC website
01:01 thestringpuller it's pretty redundant
01:01 ben_vulpes fun and how would you know?
01:01 Fun logic
01:01 ben_vulpes thestringpuller: and how would you know if the db'd changed?
01:01 thestringpuller That I cannot verify!
01:01 thestringpuller OH NOES we have a dilemma
01:02 ben_vulpes Fun: try again, that kind of statement doesn't hold any water with me.
01:02 Fun decimation: so yes about forex dont u think those options are kinda cheap
01:02 decimation I donno man, I don't really daytrade fx options
01:02 ben_vulpes <mircea_popescu> [] i like people who pretend their convenient misunderstanding is more powerful than reality. << an amusing thing to cross at this moment
01:02 thestringpuller ben_vulpes: in all srsns single point of access == single point of failure
01:03 Fun decimation: nor do I however in light of recent geo political events it seems neat thing to do
01:03 danielpbarron kakobrekla> any bitcoin poker site already struggles for existence or is half dead or completely dead << because they don't use the WoT
01:03 Fun :D
01:03 mircea_popescu <thestringpuller> This is personally the longest I've ever seen gribble AWOL. < same here.
01:03 mircea_popescu <ben_vulpes> pretty impressed that single point of failure went this long without failing. << same here #2
01:03 Fun as to reality if drunk person mistakes tree for say a monster he will hack it
01:03 thestringpuller but what is the alternative? nanotube would have to trust someone else to maintain gateway into WoT?
01:04 Fun so no matter how reality is perceived human action does alter it :D
01:05 ben_vulpes meanie
01:05 thestringpuller that was quick.
01:05 thestringpuller damn, I guess we just pray nanotube isn't locked up in some mexican prison somewhere
01:06 ben_vulpes where does extraordinary rendition happen these days?
01:06 mircea_popescu ben_vulpes weren't you complaining bout the endless log an hour ago ?
01:07 ben_vulpes watching the thing scroll by as my bouncer replays it makes things look longer than they are
01:07 ben_vulpes !up kermit
01:08 thestringpuller instead of just reading log.bitcoin-assets.com ?
01:11 ben_vulpes what, you think this is the only channel in which i do biz?

12:03 diana_coman I've written the steps on the wiki
12:03 mike_c oh

12:53 mircea_popescu well how do you know X is allowed to speak for me ?
12:54 mircea_popescu unless the server is actually using my own keypair. which it conceivably could.
12:54 davout GPG-signatures?
12:54 davout ok
12:54 davout server keypair
12:54 mircea_popescu basically, program has one, you have one. you can if you wish use the same. don;'t have to.
12:54 scoopbot New post on Trilema by Mircea Popescu: http://trilema.com/2015/open-a-better-ircd-rfc/
12:55 davout so if i understand correctly the daemon has its own keypair, the "for" keypair would be the user's
12:55 mircea_popescu yep
12:57 kakobrekla i dont get this scoopbot 30 min delay + fetch command. when i setup rss feed for herr vulpes jenkins (which is now offline for some reason) i hit it once a minute cause i give no fucks. no need for this -fetch nonsense if you change the interval to something saner.
12:57 kakobrekla its not like we gonna run out of internets anytime soon.
12:57 mircea_popescu kakobrekla trilema rss is 15 minutes delayed anyway
12:57 davout makes sense, the hash, salt and nonce fiddling is to prevent against replay right?
12:58 kakobrekla set it 5min for trilema, 1 min for qntra etc
12:58 kakobrekla forget the fetch nonsense.
12:58 mircea_popescu davout no, it's to make mitm and masquerading much harder.
12:58 davout apart from replaying i can't think of an example where GPG isn't enough a protection already
12:59 davout s/enough/enough of/
12:59 mircea_popescu a replay "attack" coming from a trusted host carries a very large cost. they'll get banned.
12:59 mircea_popescu tbh the l2 list etc has been a revelation in computer security for me.

12:59 assbot The Six Dumbest Ideas in Computer Security ... ( http://bit.ly/1DaYro4 )
12:59 davout i was thinking rely on GPG and simply encode a nonce in the message
13:00 mircea_popescu davout suppose i send spoofed ip messages.
13:00 mircea_popescu i can encode to your public key.
13:00 mircea_popescu what now ?
13:00 mircea_popescu in the design as is, now you reject my junk because i don't know the salts.
13:00 davout i discard your messages since it doesn't bear a valid GPG signature
13:00 mircea_popescu messages don't need to be signed.
13:01 mircea_popescu and this deliberately.
13:01 davout if they were wouldn't that remove the salts requirements?
13:01 mircea_popescu it would but it's moot, because i'm not about to require people to sign everything they say.
13:01 davout because if you know the server's key, you're probably aware of the salts etc
13:01 davout ic
13:01 mircea_popescu how does that work ? you know my ip and his gpg pubkey.
13:02 mircea_popescu how does this make it probable you have root on my box ?
13:02 davout i meant if you raped the server for its key, you may as well have the salt and stuff
13:02 mircea_popescu pubkey ?
13:02 davout both
13:02 mircea_popescu o you meant in your signed alt-spec. mkay.
13:06 davout i didn't think of the requirement to sign as an issue actually
13:08 mircea_popescu actually, it occurs to me this needs some padding.

17:25 diana_coman I never got why are people supposed to prove that they are not computers/bots, really
17:25 mike_c before that captcha the wiki was swarmed with thousands of fake accounts and pages
17:25 mike_c they were creating hundreds of users and pages a day
17:26 diana_coman uhm, so you're saying that effectively for all behaviour, there really ARE more bots (be it blood and flesh and bones ones) than people around on the internets
17:26 diana_coman could be, I guess
17:28 diana_coman I confess I did not really look into it, but I'd rather look for some way to block bots away without the expense for actual humans - dunno, maybe some kind of timestamp check thing or something similar
17:28 mike_c Trilema tries that
17:28 diana_coman and doesn't it succeed?
17:28 mike_c and it is not unusual for it to catch humans
17:30 diana_coman hmmm, I guess then the question remains on how often that happens
17:30 diana_coman I mean: if you ask by default humans to prove, than it happens each and every time, really, no choice there
17:31 mike_c only each and every time you post a link.
17:31 diana_coman really? how is that?
17:31 mike_c idk, the thing has some smarts. but that's why it worked sometimes and not others.
17:31 diana_coman do you mean posting a link on trilema or on the wiki>
17:31 diana_coman ?
17:31 mike_c the wiki
17:31 diana_coman a, ok, I don't know about that
17:32 diana_coman at least it did not ask me to identify cats and dogs...
17:32 mike_c the thing is, the trilema one is extremely frustrating when it misfires.
17:32 mike_c because you don't know even know why
17:32 diana_coman well, so you go and yell at the owner, lol
17:33 diana_coman that must at least let some frustration out
17:33 mike_c yes, but this is hardly a good solution for a wiki. you, for example, did not go yell at the owner
17:33 mike_c you just didn't post
17:33 diana_coman true, because I thought that well, if there is some interest in the thing, they will come asking on eulora /irc and then we sort it out
17:33 diana_coman no need to sort it out earlier
17:33 diana_coman and there you came asking, so it worked
17:34 diana_coman I did raise the problem on eulora channel
17:34 mike_c yes, but it took six weeks. picking some cat photos seems like less of a pain.
17:34 mike_c but, this is religious debate.
17:34 diana_coman on some days I admit I might send the cats and dogs and site to all hell and as a result not post
17:34 mike_c hehe
17:34 diana_coman but then again, that might be just me, I admit it
17:39 diana_coman btw, out of curiosity: why is this eulorom site apart entirely from mingame.bz? I thought eulora was essentially made by minigame so I don't quite follow the different sites/lack of links or is there something I'm missing?

18:39 asciilifeform punkman: [fpga thread] would MIPS be easier than x86? or does the problem lie in connecting the thing to outside world (fast RAM, peripherals, etc) << problem is that you can't make so much as a barrel shifter on any extant fpga without using a closed turd from the vendor - actually, two turds: one in the logic library part itself, other - the synthesis toolchain
18:40 asciilifeform punkman: one can attempt to work with just the synthesis toolchain (no escape from it) and use netlists of 'raw' logic - i.e. simple universal constructs like 'nand gate'. the result - go try it - a very simple kindergarten-level circuit fills up the entire chip, with glacial performance (gate delays measured in msec!)
18:41 asciilifeform this is because the entire fpga concept, as imagined by n00bs to the subject, does not actually work.
18:41 asciilifeform folks doing actual work with fpga make very light use of the general-purpose routing matrix
18:41 asciilifeform and of the LUTs
18:42 asciilifeform mostly they hook up vendor 'library' parts together. these usually (though not always) correspond to miniature 'islands' of asic present on the chip
18:42 asciilifeform e.g., an adder, a shifter, uart, 500 other kinds of part.
18:47 asciilifeform punkman: but back to original question, mips is vastly easier to implement in programmable logic of whatever kind than x86. this ought to be obvious to anyone with even an evening's familiarity with both.

20:29 kakobrekla ok
20:29 kakobrekla fasten your seatbelts
20:29 kakobrekla [02:23:50] <svetlana> cloaking is NOT the solution to the problem.
20:29 kakobrekla [02:24:05] <kakobrekla> how is it not?

20:29 kakobrekla [02:25:27] <kakobrekla> freenode is broken by default as it will show your ip plainly
20:29 kakobrekla [02:25:49] <svetlana> it is rather trivial to look through cloaks (chanserv can, and anyone can query chanserv with various cidrs and ask whether people match).
20:29 kakobrekla !up svetlana
20:30 mircea_popescu ...
20:30 mircea_popescu let's start with something simple. who is svetlana.
20:30 svetlana Hi.
20:31 mircea_popescu ello
20:31 svetlana I might suggest not using cloaks as the solution here. Using cidr entries in access list, and /cs why, it's quite trivial to look through them. We don't want to "teach" whoever is ddosing here that -- he'd keep doing his thing.
20:32 asciilifeform what is the suggested solution (other than '+i' which was discussed at one point, bitter pill)
20:32 svetlana Instead, get affected people to check their router logs and get more details about the attack.
20:32 asciilifeform svetlana: i got a massive packet dump, and so has kakobrekla
20:33 asciilifeform svetlana: standard ntp and ssdp 'amplification' attack
20:33 mircea_popescu and "more details" will do what ?
20:33 svetlana asciilifeform: It is not rather dumbly from a single IP, is it?
20:34 asciilifeform svetlana: not familiar with term 'amplification attack' ?
20:34 svetlana No.
20:34 BingoBoingo svetlana: It is some asshole herding wayward machines
20:34 BingoBoingo routers, servers, the occasional 10 kilo wordpress sites
20:34 asciilifeform svetlana: perhaps you know it under another name. attacker sends spoofed packets to a series of machines, usually misconfigured routers and embedded systems of other kinds
20:35 asciilifeform these reply with N bytes for each spoofed byte sent, hence term 'amplification'
20:35 asciilifeform but they reply to the spoofed address (victim's) rather than attacker's.
20:35 svetlana If the details that you have are not sufficient (which is somewhat often the case), we have to apply discretion and judgment to figure out who it is (before +i, it might make sense to use +r and see if it makes things stop).
20:36 mircea_popescu svetlana so far, we still don't know who you are.
20:36 asciilifeform aha, suggestion is that we occupy ourselves with a permanent game of whack-a-mole.
20:37 svetlana I am from another channel where wc- was complaining about the issue. Couldn't suggest anything but not perceiving cloak as the solution, to him.
20:37 mircea_popescu this is all nice and good, however...
20:37 mircea_popescu the parcimonious approach is to regard you as grossly unqualified to comment on that topic.
20:37 mircea_popescu so far you're not doing much to change that.
