07:29

the three major problems that beset bitbet were (a) mp was involved with it, (b) it had zero room for contingencies or unexpected expenses and (c) train-wreck PR

http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=14-03-2016#1432301 << i also didn't think it was a worthwhile conversation to have, but i wasn't about to just watch mp make the ludicrous claim that bitcoin has been forked by a chinese mining cabal, ostensibly with the intention of tranferring all the suckers in this chan over to MPCoin, just because his 0-fee tx got bogged down.

07:50

Logged on 14-03-2016 16:33:27; phf: nubbins`: i think it's a pointless to discuss (and takes away from the core of the issue) whether or not miners are conspiring against bitbet. ascii's been known to say that lizard hitler personally disconnected his node, nobody cared to pipe in then, because it's an established local way of talking and thinking (не веришь прими за сказку). miners are a cartel, they can collectively decide

Logged on 14-03-2016 16:33:28; phf: into a controversial protocol behavior, mp called it "miners are conspiring against bitbet". you can personally call mp stupid for that, but there's no "crime" there.

07:52

http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=14-03-2016#1432303 << agreed. however, mp was going to be content to simply just /let things continue from this point/, and that was scammy, and that's why i called him out.

07:52

Logged on 14-03-2016 16:33:30; phf: nubbins`: the core of the issue (the way i understand it) is whether or not mp can use personal funds to pay out bets, and whether he can later ask for those funds back from shareholders. that seems to contradict the contract, so the accusation goes, he's in breach of contract. seems simple enough.

07:52

http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=14-03-2016#1432304 <<< i disagree, given that bitbet is now in receivership

07:52

Logged on 14-03-2016 16:33:32; phf: i think this question is receiving far less attention then the alleged miner collusion. i would've liked to see it approached through a judge (perhaps moon is a harsh mistress style "would you be our judge?"), a carefully constructed paper, an investigation, rather than bickering in logs. i think the question is also separate from receivership and is about ensuring that the rest of tmsr maintain a shared vision

yes, each one has a voucher for 0.1 btc, at mp's direction. he later rescinded the offer

incidentally, it may not be obvious to the alert reader why the power downclocking thing is pertinent

12:40

from the pov of the 1970s central planner lizards, the turn from 'pay per cpu cycle' timesharing phyootoore to personal comp was a mistake

12:40

which will now be corrected.

BingoBoingo: i've not read the article yet, but truth is, i'm yet to meet a teacher at a conference who's at all qualified to teach computing to kids. at best the approach is entirely experiental, "when you see a tiger^W^Wa popup, you should run away^W^Wcall a teacher" or "https stands for secure!", and the educational tooling is at best an inferior rip off of Scratch but more likely a scattershot gamification of hodge podge algorithmic

16:39

concepts "IF you see a wall THEN turn left!"

16:40

when i was a kid, computing class consisted of prince of persia.

16:40

i am unpersuaded better curricula could have been devised.

16:40

phf: The qntra is actually being written on a medical topic, but I was googling the "war on computing" link and was pleasantly surprised when qntra was #1

16:40

of course, meanwhile usability and friendliness and utf and reddit happened, so that no longer works.

16:41

prince of persia would be a step up from the "haaweeey kids i'm ratty the friendly rat and i'm going to teach you, 15 year old adults, about long division. it's haaaaard!"

16:42

~1/3 of the kids figured out how to give themselves infinite lives by trashing the ram.

BingoBoingo in k-12 watched computer training degrade from turtle graphics on Apple II, to adobe dreamweaver/flash on Crapple OSuX

16:42

INCLUDING a variant which worked on peek and poke in gwbasic.

16:43

i guess the point i'm getting at is that teaching technology is always and everywhere a secondary concern to the human quality of they being taught.

16:44

i've been coding gwbasic on my libretto. i remember a bearded su closed research facility forth guy was telling me "basic rots the brain, man, we get these developers who are forever ruined, i tell you" that was in 96. i wonder what he thinks of present crop...

16:44

yeah peeps really hated the gotos.

16:44

only to implement gotos by another name in everything all the time

16:45

the purity of scheme continuations! so they let you move execution context into an arbitrary location in the past? yeah! congratulations, you just implemented haf a goto

16:47

like it or not - the prince of persia curricula is how a country the size of oregon ended up providing half the engineers hired by microsoft.

16:49

BingoBoingo incidentally, since you're maybe the only guy here that actually gas re us politics : admitting for the sake of this argument that trump really is the you know, tell-it-how-it-is, fight back against the system independent bla bla : what does the fact that he isn't making "electronic votes are not a sufficient way to settle this election" a central part of his campaign ?

16:50

i started my purposeful computing education by accidentally nuking windows 95 install while trying to get rise of the triad to work!

16:50

you'd expect the anti-lizard fellow to be anti-diebold definitionally and before anything else. "either paper trial or no vote took place",

16:50

mircea_popescu: My position is and continues to be that Trump is merely and agent of Clinton

16:50

phf you and ~everyone else.

16:51

He's not anti-lizard by any stretch

16:51

BingoBoingo on the basis of that tidbit alone you'd be logically correct.

16:51

paper trail* i meant.

16:52

lol so then my education was started by trying to free conventional memory by moving a virus to the highmem

16:52

Anyways I cast my ballot on paper that was machine read.

soviet joke. americans purchase a sukhoi airplane from soviets, comes in parts, there's assembly instructions though. so they go through the process, result is a working tractor. wtf. they break it down, assemble again, tractor again. so they call russian, "wtf, tried assembling all we get is a tractor", su responds "please read fine print, `the product needs to be finalized with a judicial application of hammer and file`"

in other news, i'm kinda curious what comes of this danielpbarron blog in the end.

19:02

"Yea so you are an idiot. Theres no need to comment and make these shitty articles. Who are you to determine what false churches are? Religion is something an Indevidul believes in. It is what the said person puts their faith and trust in. I just think you should read up and do your research before posting nonsense. Thanks."

19:02

so far seems to be right on track

19:05

I suspect it will have to graduate from a pogo to an "edgerouter lite" sometime in the next few months.

19:06

Or he'll have to graduate from Wordpress and lead #b-a to a new blogware planet

19:09

i'm kinda waiting for the lulzy moment when "the community" decides he's you know, religious nut bla bla, then it's revealed he hangs out just fine with flaming iconoclasts such as yours truly, famous stake-in-butt practitioners like alf, sunni muftis like yourself, cascadians and what other scandalous outrages there be in this here menagerie

19:10

it's only THEM that don't get along, it's not about him.
