what kind of things could one use to measure inflation? there's the obvious gold, but I'm looking for other things, like pizzas, oil…? |
11:03 |
pankkake |
to be clearer, I'm looking for things with price feeds |
11:03 |
mircea_popescu |
the only way this was ever done was a composite basket sort of thing. |
11:05 |
mircea_popescu |
say something like 10% oil 5% gold 15% pork bellies 20% grain 20% average housing costs 30% minimum wage |
11:05 |
pankkake |
yeah, I know those ones, but first of all the ratio is usually pullet out of someone's ass |
11:06 |
pankkake |
and I'm looking for something sexy like "how many pizzas is a bitcoin over time" |
11:06 |
pankkake |
gold is the easy one, perhaps oil too |
11:06 |
mircea_popescu |
thats what i'm saying, there's not been a better solution than pull a basket out of ass |
11:06 |
mircea_popescu |
and tjere's no such thing as "a pizza" |

11:10 |
pankkake |
it's simple enough |
11:11 |
pankkake |
though they probably update it only once a year |
11:11 |
nubbins` |
alcohol is generally subject to varying levels of taxation from country to country, so it doesn't make as good a barometer |
11:12 |
pankkake |
indeed, and that taxation vary from year to year (one of our government's genius idea was raising the beer tax - yes there is a tax specifically on beer) |
11:13 |
nubbins` |
oil isn't useful as a measure of anything aside from OPEC's influence |
11:13 |
pankkake |
many political events can affect it |
11:14 |
pankkake |
and gold, well. though I can use price feeds from people who trade physical gold, it follows the rest |
11:15 |
nubbins` |
what this boils down to is that the aforementioned basket, for all its flaws, is still the best solution |
11:16 |
mircea_popescu |
inflation is not really a solved problem |
11:16 |
mircea_popescu |
which is why things like bitcoin are economically useful. |
11:16 |
mircea_popescu |
or w/e, "which is a way to explain the economical usefulness of things like bitcoin in classical terms" |
11:17 |
pankkake |
I'd like to have some sort of long term graph, in the sense that having bitcoin go up in value while the currencies it is tracked against lose value by themselves, is not that useful |
11:18 |
mircea_popescu |
fiat loss of value is a tiny fraction of bitcoin increase. |
11:18 |
pankkake |
no doubt :) |
11:18 |
mircea_popescu |
it went up 1000% since 9 months ago |
11:18 |
mircea_popescu |
in this sense fiat inflation is a rounding error, you'll never measure it. |
11:19 |
mircea_popescu |
as bitcoin settles closer to something like 1mn us whatevers, then fiat inflation will be more visible. |
11:20 |
pankkake |
I have a feeling fiat inflation is going to explode sooner or later |
11:20 |
pankkake |
but herhaps it will be a slow painful process |
11:20 |
mircea_popescu |
only in selected countries. |
11:21 |
thestringpuller |
fiat inflation is irrelevant |
11:22 |
thestringpuller |
to bitcoin, because if/when it goes out of control, there will be a different unit of account btc |
11:23 |
thestringpuller |
like gold bars or something |
11:23 |
jurov |
pizzaz |
11:23 |
jurov |
and since when was bitcoin under control? |
11:24 |
thestringpuller |
i was talking about inflation with that pronoun it |
11:24 |
thestringpuller |
if inflation goes out of control it won't be seen in bitcoin accurately because people will stop using fiat as a unit of account |
11:24 |
jurov |
oh ic |
11:26 |
pankkake |
then I could switch my system to track it directly in BTC |
11:26 |

i think it will end up more like in argentina, official rates faster and faster divorced from actual market ones |
11:26 |

theft, basically. |
11:29 |

I've read parts of http://ferfal.blogspot.com/ - scary |
11:29 |
thestringpuller |
like boiler room style? |
11:30 |
mircea_popescu |
like you know what a bailout is ? |
11:30 |
thestringpuller |
a bailout is when someone gives someone else a bunch of money to save their ass |
11:30 |

what is the inverse of that? |

a bailout is when a government spends from the tax chest to save a failed business. |
11:31 |
mircea_popescu |
a bailin is when a government confiscates third parties funds to save a failed business. |
11:31 |
mircea_popescu |
so. chryser is bankrupt. bailout : govt gives them 10bn in govt backed credit. bailin : govt orders anyone who ever bought a chrysler car to pay 1k to chruysler. |

argentina does the same about every 15 years. |
11:33 |
mircea_popescu |
amusingly enough, people STILL put money in their banks. |

maybe they're banks don't ask many questions? |

The author further criticized Elvis's "motions and gestures, like those of masturbation or riding a microphone," and added that "Indications of the harm Presley did ... were two high school girls (...) whose abdomen and thigh had Presley's autograph. ... There is also gossip of the Presley Fan Clubs that degenerate into sex orgies." The letter concluded with the assumption that, based on eyewitness reports, Presley was |
