ben_vulpes: My Dev environment here on this laptop consists of NGINX, some php-fpm, some apache/mod_php, uwsgi and even some manage.py runserver (all at the same time) |
00:10 |
xmj |
ben_vulpes: this setup is a bit ... shall we call it legacy inspired. But yes. NGINX and uwsgi <3 it works. |
00:11 |

ben_vulpes: fwiw, I much prefer nginx to apache. saner configuration, much faster speed -by default. |

you can create the port...since it compiles out the box it shouldn't need anything except fancy except pkg-descr, which I have already done |

lmao romanians are total fuckwits. so : in 2008, the pressure on local journalism university programmes was 6-7 teenagers per place. five years later, two thirds of local media outlets went out of business, aggregate local media audience dropped to a third (not by a third!) and virtually all professional journalists that were clueless enough to have been left started streetwalking on the side. |
08:56 |

the result ? pressure increased to 8 kids per place. |

BingoBoingo is mvp a purely technical measurement like batting average or is it a voted/popularity contest ? |

It's a voted thing the people with the best measurements usually win, but some years it gets controversial |

Usually it is the guys with better numbers beating popular guys |
10:00 |
mircea_popescu |
well in that case injury after solid performance is by far the best he could do |

i'm confused about this silk road bet |
10:50 |
ziggla |
when do we find out? |
10:50 |
ThickAsThieves |
never it seems |
10:50 |
mircea_popescu |
a that sore spot. well ideally we find out once the usg finally and publicly admits to having been owned, painfully and humiliatingly. |
10:50 |
ziggla |
lol |
10:51 |
ThickAsThieves |
see you shoulda just let me make the schrodinger bet |
10:51 |
ThickAsThieves |
at least that wouldve resolved |
10:51 |
ziggla |
when will they admit? |
10:51 |
mircea_popescu |
but unideally, i will just unilaterally decide one side, and that will be what happened, |
10:51 |
mircea_popescu |
irrespective of what the usg may falsely or accurately claim afterwards. |
10:51 |
ziggla |
you will just decide? |
10:52 |
mircea_popescu |
yea. |
10:52 |
ziggla |
why don't you just cancel the whole thing if we don't find out? |
10:52 |
ziggla |
seems like a big risk |
10:52 |
mircea_popescu |
because the bet exists. |
10:52 |
mircea_popescu |
the risk exists, but it lies with the usg. |
10:52 |
mircea_popescu |
if it doesn't want to have to lie later, it better tell the truth now. |
10:53 |
ziggla |
i don't get it |
10:53 |
ziggla |
what would it lie about/? |
10:53 |
mircea_popescu |
what price it sold the btc. |
10:53 |
mircea_popescu |
after i make a decision, if their claims contradict that decision... they're lieing. |
10:53 |
ThickAsThieves |
ziggla needs to know your version of the truth here |
10:53 |
ziggla |
but i don't see the purpose of them lying |
10:53 |
mircea_popescu |
well i don't have one. |
10:53 |
mircea_popescu |
last fucking thing i want is to play the oracle for bureaucracies |
10:53 |
mircea_popescu |
ziggla that's kinda what they do, tbh. |
10:53 |
ziggla |
ha |
10:54 |
ThickAsThieves |
<+ziggla> but i don't see the purpose of them lying /// are you like 11yo? |
10:54 |
pete_dushenski |
mircea_popescu: can you normally tell what's wrong with you, if something's wrong, and what food item was the cause, if you're sick ? << hilarious when people get food poisoning, blame it on last meal they ate, ignorant of bacteria with >1 week incubation periods (e. coli, listeria, etc.) |
10:54 |
mircea_popescu |
anyway, what's the purpose of not publishing it afterwards ? after all that lead-up and promissory behaviour, o noes, we will ruin btc lalal. |
10:54 |
ThickAsThieves |
there's always a purpose to lying |
10:54 |
mircea_popescu |
pete_dushenski if you stfu and listen to your body, you can generally tell. |
10:54 |
pete_dushenski |
and that they probably cross-contaminated something at home or at friend's house, not restaurant. |
10:55 |
ThickAsThieves |
and always a lie to tell |
10:55 |
ziggla |
seems easiest to not play oracle if you don't have to make any decisions about your thoughts of the usg if the bet is just cancelled |
10:55 |
mircea_popescu |
ziggla the difference is that you perceive this theoretical 3rd way, of "cancelling bets". i don't. |
10:55 |
pete_dushenski |
mircea_popescu: perhaps you can, perhaps i can, perhaps other cannot |
10:55 |
mircea_popescu |
pete_dushenski it definitely doesn't work 100%, sure. |
10:56 |
ziggla |
i'm sure bets have been cancelled on bitbet before |
10:56 |
pete_dushenski |
mircea_popescu: people just wanna blame someone or something else anyways, eg. the joo |
10:56 |
ThickAsThieves |
bets have been cancelled |
10:56 |
ThickAsThieves |
rare tho |
10:56 |
mircea_popescu |
ziggla not that many, and not usually in a contention. |
10:56 |
mircea_popescu |
generally a bet gets cancelled early on, cause w/e, it was miswritten |
10:56 |
PeterL__ |
didn't somebody submit a foia request for the price? have they still not heard back? |
10:57 |
mircea_popescu |
but there's a legitimate contention here, no way to cancel. |
10:57 |
mircea_popescu |
PeterL__ multiple people. the 30 day term has been exceeded. by 50+ days. |
10:57 |
ThickAsThieves |
the USMS acknowledged they have had many public inquiries as to the info |
10:57 |
ThickAsThieves |
and said theyd give a statement early Aug |
10:57 |
ThickAsThieves |
that never happened |
10:57 |
ziggla |
yes, so we wait for them to release this info |
10:57 |
ziggla |
but they haven't |
10:57 |
ziggla |
just wonderring how long we wait |
10:57 |
PeterL__ |
rules are for the peons |
10:57 |
mircea_popescu |
ziggla can't wait forever, obviously. but the alternative is imo worse. |
10:57 |
ThickAsThieves |
so now a few people have FOIA requests pending |
10:58 |
ThickAsThieves |
as you can see with the latet NYDFS update |
10:58 |
ThickAsThieves |
, |
10:58 |
ziggla |
it's pretty easy to cancel imo |
10:58 |
mircea_popescu |
PeterL__ it's funny you know because they walked right into it, they were all "o we hve a pr stragety, here's how we'll crush bitcoin's image lalal" |
10:58 |
ThickAsThieves |
USG isnt really giving info feedback on bitcoin anything |
10:58 |
ziggla |
sorry folks, this bet is unresolvable. usg won't release the info. it has been 3 months. we will refund the bets. |
10:58 |
ziggla |
seems easy enough |
10:58 |
ThickAsThieves |
it is resolvable |
10:59 |
mircea_popescu |
ziggla well in that sense driving into the wall is easy, just turn the weel and push the gas. |
10:59 |
ThickAsThieves |
it is merely unresolved |
10:59 |
mircea_popescu |
running a business doing that is a lot harder |
10:59 |
PeterL__ |
reminds me of interacting with the IRS "Please submit this info within 3 days or else huge fine, expect a response in 12-16 weeks, maybe" |
10:59 |
ThickAsThieves |
yeah pretty much |
10:59 |
ziggla |
yes, it is resolvable. i wish the USG would just cooperate so we can know |
10:59 |
mircea_popescu |
PeterL__ i still regret no judge made their email thing precendent. "from now on, an y taxpayer may just pretend they lost the emails" |
10:59 |

personally, i'm waiting for the drama bubble to pop. |
11:01 |

11:01 |

dont the losers deserve to know? |
11:01 |
mircea_popescu |
totally. |
11:01 |
ziggla |
mircea, just curious what you think the price was in case you decide to resolve the bet rather than an official release from USMS |
11:01 |
ziggla |
i'd like to know if i stand to win or not |
11:01 |
ziggla |
i also don't agree with that methodology either way |
11:01 |
mircea_popescu |
ziggla i have nfi yet. i deliberately avoided the topic, because why prejudge |
11:02 |
ziggla |
justc curious |
11:02 |
mircea_popescu |
anyway, if you're curiuous re precedent, the bfl scammers put 500 btc on a delivery bet early on in bitbet's history |
11:02 |
ThickAsThieves |
i used to be sure he overpaid, but he was so fukn tightlipped to every direct question on the price |
11:02 |
mircea_popescu |
then they failed to deliver but tried to claim that "it's unresolvable" |
11:03 |
mircea_popescu |
some scamsites working with them to help them skewer noobs aquiesced, which ruined their reputation. bitbet did not. |
11:03 |
ThickAsThieves |
its just "off", this auction |
11:03 |
mircea_popescu |
ThickAsThieves if nothing else, there's going to be an investor report, not like he's mp spending his own money. |
11:03 |
ThickAsThieves |
does that other bet site exist anymore? |
11:03 |
mircea_popescu |
arguably. |
11:03 |
ThickAsThieves |
or did they just reskin to betmoose? |
11:03 |
ziggla |
500 btc is different than like 7 btc. the silk road bet isn't for much. don't think tim draper or the usms is scamming newbs on bitbet here |
11:04 |
mircea_popescu |
ziggla its not really germane, when discussing precedent. and yes, i do think usms is scamming. |
11:04 |
ziggla |
so if they are going to lie and scam, you think they will try to inflate the price they received? |
11:04 |
mircea_popescu |
ThickAsThieves afaik betmoose is the attempt to "prove me wrong" of some guy that was pissed that i despise the "marketplace model" |
11:04 |
ziggla |
that's the only point of lying i see |
11:05 |
mircea_popescu |
ziggla it's complicated. |
11:05 |
mircea_popescu |
originally it was going to be "nobody wanted to bid so we just gave it to our friends to help us "enforce" price policy" |
11:05 |
ThickAsThieves |
they also have an asston more coin to sell |
11:05 |
mircea_popescu |
but then that fell through. now, how exactly it fell through... it's not clear. |
11:05 |
mircea_popescu |
ThickAsThieves so they claim. |
11:05 |
ziggla |
interesting |
11:05 |
mircea_popescu |
so far, it's unclear they've even delivered this batch |
11:05 |
ThickAsThieves |
they did at least transmit coins |
11:06 |
mircea_popescu |
maybe. |
11:06 |
mircea_popescu |
someone moved some coins. |
11:06 |
ThickAsThieves |
right |
11:06 |
ziggla |
pretty sure the transaction to tim draper was confirmed |
11:06 |
mircea_popescu |
ziggla confirmed, how ? |
11:06 |

i thought i saw articles |

ziggla your standard of proof may be weak. |
11:06 |
ziggla |
i guess i haven't looked into it too closely |
11:06 |
ThickAsThieves |
not that he has an identity to prove it |
11:07 |
mircea_popescu |
that's kinda the problem, noobs wanna pretend like they're playing this crypto currency game. |
11:07 |
mircea_popescu |
except they want to do it with clay pots. |
11:08 |
ziggla |
at the end of the day, rather than wait potentially forever for a small profit or loss, i'd prefer to just receive my bet money back. it's just a long wait and i have no other bitcoins to bet so i can't even place more bets that i'd like to right now. |
11:08 |
mircea_popescu |
i hear you. |
11:08 |
mircea_popescu |
if you will, take solace in the concept that a fiat investment arrived in contention can trivially lock your funds for a decade+ |

when was the auction again ? june wasn't it ? |
11:10 |
ThickAsThieves |
announced may i think |
11:10 |
ThickAsThieves |
i forget |
11:10 |
mircea_popescu |
yeah they announced draper like 1st of july |
11:10 |
mircea_popescu |
so they should have responded by 1st of august |
11:11 |
mircea_popescu |
thern they said they'll break the law, but do it by end of august |
11:11 |
mircea_popescu |
and here's semptember. |
11:11 |
mircea_popescu |
anyway, it's also possible someone sued, which is frequent in these auctions |
11:11 |
mircea_popescu |
the auction won't be settled until all claims are resolved. |
11:11 |
asciilifeform |
only way the truth (tm) comes out is if more than a few of the players involved are thoroughly pwned, rooted, results trotted out. |
11:11 |

11:12 |

and even then only if the culprits hanged upside down, wired to the mains by the balls, and admit the data genuine. |
11:12 |
ziggla |
OK. well maybe if it's not solved for like 5 years and i end up winning it will be worth a lot more at that time |
11:12 |
ziggla |
bitbet is like a bank |
11:12 |
mircea_popescu |
ziggla this was said before. |
11:12 |
ziggla |
but i guess then i have to trust bitbet will remain solvent and hold my coins securely |
11:13 |
ziggla |
which is kind of worrisome, no offense |
11:13 |
mircea_popescu |
in principle, if your credit / wot ratings are good, you should be able to use the proof of holding the bet you made as collateral with a gpg contract |

11:29 |
pete_dushenski |
fiberglass has applications and uses outside of insulation |
11:29 |
mircea_popescu |
it's not relly toxic, more like noxious. the glass itself is harmless silica, but the shape it has allows it to mechanically breach the skin, |
11:29 |
mircea_popescu |
and cause lung and respiratory tract serious issues |
11:29 |
asciilifeform |
