00:00 artifexd I think my (possible?) mistake is in thinking that he has access to the same information as the rest of us (specifically, me). He may have more people to pour over it and analyze it, but the raw information is available.
00:00 benkay that'd be what we call an 'assumption'.
00:00 artifexd Or rather, that I have access to the same information he does.
00:00 asciilifeform won't predict, but will show where fault line, etc.

00:09 artifexd When I was in the Navy, lower ranked officers were nothing special, but even lower enlisted (like myself) didn't have conversations with the Captains and Admirals. There was the understanding that they were "people" just like us (meaning the enlisted folk), but their concerns and our concerns didn't overlap enough to allow for everyday conversation. There
00:09 artifexd was a real caste system.
00:11 artifexd Here, mircea and I should not exist in the same caste. I'm just a normal dude. He's a Romanian Billionare. WITH A B! I can conceive of no reason that someone that high up the food chain would give two shits about what I think or why I think it.
00:11 benkay that understanding is the glue holding the democratic army of america together
00:12 artifexd And yet, every time I talk, he gives me the time of day. When I question him, he responds reasonably. I guess that encourages me to treat him as an equal.
00:12 benkay and yeah, they're probably just like you in the particulars of their lives and mistresses and dinners and base houses etc
00:13 benkay heh

00:13 benkay some day i'll get to say that to someone in all seriousness.
00:16 artifexd Honestly, I think I'm feeling a little overwhelmed that he appointed me as a bitcoin baron. http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=13-04-2014&bots=true#622843
00:16 artifexd Because, seriously, who the fuck am I?

00:18 benkay lowest of the low, artifexd
00:18 benkay baron must do his lords work or be stripped as i understand it
00:20 artifexd Do you remember the first time somebody gave you real responsibility? "Don't let me down, kid." type stuff.

01:35 artifexd urthermore, putting bitcoins on your phone is probably the goddamn stupidest thing that I've ever heard of. Bitcoins are going to be the world's reserve currency4, and as such fated to rise to prices per coin that dwarf even the outlandish Winklevoss' most media-hungry "predictions".

06:12 Namworld They have Bitcoin related website, some real estates and restaurant and random stuff. Eh...
06:12 Namworld The name seems to be a bad coincidence. An awful one even.
06:13 Namworld Doesn't look like an appropriate candidate anyway. There's no amount of duct tape that can fix MtGox.
06:14 fluffypony yeah
06:15 Namworld And own silkroad.com, which is HR related, which must be their first business, hence the name: http://www.silkroad.com/

06:15 Namworld What liabilities?
06:16 fluffypony all the money Karpeles stole, presumably?
06:16 Namworld So, basically, they are insane?
06:16 fluffypony yes
06:17 fluffypony they'll probably take the BTC pool that has been "discovered"
06:17 fluffypony and then distribute that proportionally

06:18 fluffypony yeah
06:18 fluffypony I don't think they'd be stupid enough to cover the rest, unless they never want to ever achieve any level of profitability
06:18 bounce then call it a day. then what? a rotten website and trading "engine", an unwilling user base (I mean... well, they didn't walk away before, did they?), and, trouble with nosy 'merkin regulators. what'd be in it for them?
06:18 fluffypony bounce: who knows what goes through their heads
06:19 fluffypony maybe they think the gox name is salvageable
06:19 bounce could be a TLAgency front. then again, why go through all the trouble? might as well set up one anew.
06:20 fluffypony yeah
06:20 Namworld Depends on the sort of capital they have. Gox's name isn't what's doomed. It's the code created by Karpeles and Karpeles himself.
06:20 Namworld If they don't have to pay back balances lost, just what's left, and get to have all the userbase with docs...
06:21 Namworld They could even relaunch anew with their own name
06:21 fluffypony yeah
06:21 bounce depends a bit on what you could do with that. though apparently you could've grabbed that yourself, seeing the guys that first promised not to sell the loot, then offered to sell it anyway.
06:21 fluffypony bounce: you'll be surprised who comes crawling back
06:21 Namworld That's the only thing I can imagine someone going after, the doxed userbase without having to pay balances
06:21 fluffypony also afaik, wasn't gox tightly integrated into some trading platforms?
06:22 fluffypony a lot of heavy traders aren't going to want to reinvest fresh capital and then still have to pay for compatability with whatever platform they use
06:22 fluffypony but the opportunity to keep using the tools even with only 25% of their capital that was in gox
06:22 fluffypony may be appealing
06:22 Namworld Bounce, if someone took it from the hacker and spammed the users telling them "We already have your docs, come trade on a good BTC market! *LINK*"
06:22 Namworld Well let's just say it wouldn't pass.
06:23 bounce notice how you can s/hacker/boogieman/ and you'd make about as much sense. in fact, you'd be more honest.

10:14 mircea_popescu kakobrekla for loose women.
10:14 kakobrekla i dont understand that device at all
10:14 kakobrekla it shines but where are the keys ?
10:15 mircea_popescu upup
10:15 mircea_popescu indabutt
10:15 dexX7 there is a nfc chip inside
10:15 bounce apparently my google-fu is lacking. anyway, $source thinks they need to go down before they manage to rake in funding. that'd be the message.
10:15 mircea_popescu bounce that didn't parse
10:15 jurov someone actually acted on the hookers+microphone proposal?
10:16 jurov as in, the dildo must actually be used when signing the tx?
10:16 jurov I APPROVE
10:16 mircea_popescu "here's this bit of plastic. make it orgasm, you may spend your bitcoin. otherwise... make someone else orgasm, spend their bitcoin"
10:16 mircea_popescu radical whoredom.
10:16 dexX7 i think it's more like "store your key, come back later, restore key"
10:17 mircea_popescu wait. to restore means to store again or to unstore ?!
10:17 bounce "retrieve coins" would be the point, I suppose. which apparently involves destroying the thing.
10:18 dexX7 :D
10:18 dexX7 it means this thing does not sign anything
10:18 mircea_popescu you know, lulz and jokes aside, a permanent insertion is fucking uncomfortable.
10:19 TestingUnoDosTre So does it generate a tx when broken, or does I have some wallet file stored inside?
10:20 mircea_popescu seems to me like it's a normal usb stick encased in a plastic frame
10:20 dexX7 replace usb with nfc and plastic with glass
10:20 mircea_popescu mine's cheaper.
10:20 dexX7 probably not as shiny
10:21 TestingUnoDosTre I can smash your usb and gain access to your bitcoins!? Now that's a true brute force

11:04 los_pantalones mike_c can you close a bet on bitbet?
11:04 los_pantalones you have to take the other side
11:05 los_pantalones and both your bets sit in escrow
11:05 los_pantalones until resolution
11:05 los_pantalones right?
11:05 mike_c right
11:05 los_pantalones so, there is opportunity cost
11:05 los_pantalones traditionally, closing your bet would give you all your money back
11:05 los_pantalones so i would venture to guess you are right
11:05 los_pantalones but in this case there is a penalty to closing your bet

11:06 los_pantalones just started looking into it and was trying to get my head around some of the bigger bets
11:06 mike_c not sure what you mean by traditionally. generally in betting you can only close your bet by taking the other side
11:06 mike_c like getting a middle in sports betting
11:07 los_pantalones i only know financial and phys commodities markets
11:07 los_pantalones in which case you have no position on and all your cash
11:07 los_pantalones to reinvest / spend elsewhere
11:07 mike_c yes, this is different because you can't sell a position.
11:07 los_pantalones right
11:08 los_pantalones so there is a big opportunity cost of taking the other side
11:08 los_pantalones wouldn't that also increase liquidity on the other side of the bet
11:08 los_pantalones perhaps incenting more players
11:08 los_pantalones thus decreasing your payout
11:08 los_pantalones is it equiv? are you still flat?
11:09 los_pantalones or can someone expose you by betting later?
11:09 los_pantalones do you have to constantly reweight the size of your other side ?
11:09 mike_c i would think that would be the case. i would welcome an analysis of that topic with numbers and examples :)
11:09 kakobrekla <mike_c> yes, this is different because you can't sell a position. < its taking awfully long for someone to code that.
11:10 los_pantalones ok
11:10 TestingUnoDosTre Oooh reselling bitbet positions, I like this idea

12:49 benkay just a mass of undifferentiated atoms banging off each other
12:49 mircea_popescu in that physicalist view you'll have trouble showing people even exist at all.

13:01 mircea_popescu i don't think they were ever anything else.
13:01 mircea_popescu buncha equal peons, and the emperor drunk out of his mind. between these, a bureaucracy, completely arbitrarily "educated" by rote.
13:01 mircea_popescu this has been china for pretty much the entire interval

16:17 fluffypony BingoBoingo: yeah, and with a sufficient number of nodes it's also good from a privacy perspective
16:18 fluffypony I really like Electrum, much more than MultiBit
16:19 BingoBoingo I like the Multibit interface more for handling multiple wallet, but I'm liking Electrum more and more as I play with it. I just wish there was a good solution for handling both Deterministic and random generation wallets.
16:20 fluffypony you can import privkeys for random generated wallets in electrum?
16:21 dignork fluffypony, you can, but then you'll have to treat your wallet as non-deterministic
16:21 fluffypony yes
16:22 fluffypony so you make sure you have the privkeys backed up/written down for your random addresses
16:22 fluffypony and the rest are all deterministic, including your change addresses
16:23 BingoBoingo There are a number of reasons to want wallets with different kinds of behavior. For some purposes different change addresses is a bug.
16:24 dignork BingoBoingo, when would you want to disable change addresses?

22:42 mircea_popescu i lol because, well, in typical style of the earlier quoted clueless "businessman" in his own head, they came up for sale once, in late 2009. they wanted x. i made an offer, roughly 0.15 x
22:42 mircea_popescu they had an aneurism.
22:42 mircea_popescu then it came up for sale about twice a year, i never bothered to make offers again, but i have little doubt it'll continue indefinitely.
22:43 TestingUnoDosTre where are you talking about?
22:43 TestingUnoDosTre still china?
22:43 mircea_popescu i was talking of timisoara, right now, and asciilifeform of some northeast us i guess
22:43 asciilifeform incidentally, tomorrow is celebrated the greatest american bezzle holiday - tax day
22:43 mircea_popescu i know, because http://bitbet.us/bet/802/bitcoin-to-drop-under-300-before-june/#c2775
22:43 asciilifeform where miscreants who minimize their bezzle radiation exposure get to pay double
22:44 asciilifeform (in usa, mortgages, for instance, are deducted from taxable income - rent isn't. etc)
22:44 mircea_popescu asciilifeform rent is, if you're renting as a company.
22:44 mircea_popescu which theoretically you can't do for living space (must be commercial)
22:44 mircea_popescu except you can if it's a perk for employees,
22:44 mircea_popescu except regulations apply.
22:44 mircea_popescu etc.
22:45 BingoBoingo mircea_popescu: It's msot of the us, but in different ways. Sometimes condos, sometime subdivisions (probably a part of what makes the rentalstarter thing possible-ish)
22:45 asciilifeform if you try to get it 'as human' you generally get your arse handed to you.
22:45 TestingUnoDosTre was just talking to a self proclaimed business man at the bar today, telling me I had to be creative while filing my taxes
22:46 mircea_popescu asciilifeform in fairness : if you tried to get anything "As a barbarian" 2k years ago, also.
22:46 asciilifeform mircea_popescu: i rent commercial space also, and know this.
22:47 asciilifeform another interesting fact about tax in usa (perhaps everyone already knows) - income above a certain sum is taxed at 40-50%
22:48 asciilifeform but that's enough about our national holiday.

23:22 Duffer1 ;;rate twizt 1 hexs and hotsauce
23:22 twizt need like 30k for process schedule
23:22 gribble Rating entry successful. Your rating of 1 for user twizt has been recorded.
23:22 mircea_popescu the idea is this : flavoured edible lube. basically, clumps of gelatin,
23:23 twizt and fda nonsense
23:23 mircea_popescu you could make beacon lube, kentucky fried chicken lube,
23:23 twizt organic cert
23:23 mircea_popescu mcdonalds milkshake lube
23:23 twizt lol y
23:23 twizt that sounds disgusting
23:23 mircea_popescu don;'t be silly, it'd sell like crazy
23:24 mircea_popescu all the fat useless hogs that never date'd buy it to pretend like they do a lot of fucking,
23:24 mircea_popescu and then guzzle it straight from the bottle while posting on reddit
23:24 twizt lmao
23:24 twizt nah the hot sauce is better then flavored lube
23:24 Duffer1 ha
23:24 mircea_popescu you laugh but i'm dead serious. this could be the #1 thing sold in the states.
23:25 Duffer1 i dunno if you made it alcoholic i'd agree
23:25 twizt im trying to get next to that bottle of ketchup and A1 sauce thats standard in most restaurants
23:25 mircea_popescu Duffer1 you could make a butterscotch flavouring, an old whiskey flavouring etc
23:26 twizt nah lube isnt defensive enough play for me
23:27 twizt condiments index beats overall index usually by 4x+
23:27 mircea_popescu dude you keep throwing numbers and shit into my clearly brilliant idea.
23:27 mircea_popescu i should have just kept it secret like ninjashogun advised
23:27 twizt lmao
23:27 mircea_popescu </sarcasm>
23:29 TestingUnoDosTre could it be spicy bacon lube?
23:29 mircea_popescu defo.

23:30 Duffer1 MP did you ever get a hold of crazy_rabbit about that cold storage device?
23:30 mircea_popescu Duffer1 nope
23:30 mircea_popescu well... "cold"
23:30 mircea_popescu i've never met one with a cold snatch yet.
23:30 mircea_popescu i'd prolly be worried she's sick, like a dog with a warm nose.
23:31 mircea_popescu twizt see above, teh power of good ideas.
23:32 twizt maybe u should try it
23:33 mircea_popescu if i knew someone who could mix the shit i would.
23:33 twizt what do u need lube and mcdonalds?
23:33 twizt lol
23:33 mircea_popescu well i dunno how to make edible lube, for one,
