palmfrond_: don't know if this is the right place to ask, but how crowded is market-making for btc or derivatives? saw some guy on reddit asking about a colocate
palmfrond_: kinda freaked me out, didn't think it was that serious
BingoBoingo: It's a mixed bag.
BingoBoingo: There's some very crowded corners, but they tend to be higher risk
palmfrond_: in what sense?
BingoBoingo: Well, it depends on who you are trading with/against
palmfrond_: do you get that kind of information? I was under the impression it was all largely anonymous
BingoBoingo: Well there's a very crowded space full of people who aren't anonymous at all, because they are more interested in making fiat
BingoBoingo: I mean if you trade on Bitfinex they are perfectly happy with making you feel like a market maker, but... Bitfinex is awfully scammy. Also all that information they collect.
BingoBoingo: fuck, its early in the morning
palmfrond_: by scammy do you mean that they allegedly force margin calls/stop hunt? i'm pretty uninformed and that's all i've found on them from a cursory google search

BingoBoingo: ;;later tell GamerSg Hello
gribble: The operation succeeded.
GamerSg: sure, but i might not be on later. Will check logs incase its discussed
GamerSg: so thus far i suppose u guys have not settled on any change
mats: have you read gavin's single interaction here, GamerSg?
BingoBoingo: As far as I know they aren't supporting and current proposal. It will prolly be at least 2018 before they even consider opening up an rfc on the matter.

BingoBoingo: Fuck that was January already.
mats: moving up the block size at this time is premature.
BingoBoingo: Seriously, so many memory handling issues first
BingoBoingo: Then CPU locking behavior along with fixing sync.
GamerSg: mats: Is this the one time when he came on here asking why a large blocksize is bad? Like back in Julyish
mats: then there's the problem of validating signatures in 1+nMB blocks.
GamerSg: other than that no, but i think he is an idiot
GamerSg: yes, ive read that
GamerSg: the guy is clueless about security
GamerSg: plain reckless or possibly adverserial
GamerSg: mats: I can tell whenever i sync up on my laptop, syncing 3 weeks can take well beyond an hour
BingoBoingo: too a certain kind of reckless for too long to not be unintentional
mats: i can't parse this
GamerSg: im kind of concerned now that nullc has taken a backseat that Core might give way to idiots and populist demands
BingoBoingo: <GamerSg> mats: I can tell whenever i sync up on my laptop, syncing 3 weeks can take well beyond an hour << Blocking the AWS IP space on 8333 can help with this
GamerSg: BingoBoingo: O? Why would that be the case
mats: freeloaders.
BingoBoingo: gamer bunch of nodes running on AWS are spammy XT microinstances with their own blocking problems. Saves you CPU cycles trying to talk blocks out of them
GamerSg: i tot vast majority of XT nodes were spoofs, i mean of all ppl id expect freeloaders arguing for free stuff the
GamerSg: to be least inclined to run a node
BingoBoingo: Yeah, lots of pseudo nodes with XT user agent strings
BingoBoingo: Or actual XT nodes on AWS micro...
GamerSg: personally i think block size can wait atleast until fees are 10x higher
BingoBoingo: I just use a flat fee of 0.001 on my outgoing transaction now, it like spring 2013 all over again
BingoBoingo: It's the same fee (or maybe I'm using 0.00025 for this) to determine if a transaction is relayable

BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: Of course. There is no actual antidote to butter.
mircea_popescu: which, incidentally, reminds me of an ancient story. long, long ago in a galazy far far away there lived this fellow, who was the best anesthesiologist in town. and consequently, by the meritocratic workings of the "people's equalitarian democracy" he could have had ANYTHING her wanted. literally, you can't imagione this. as the "best of" guy in a socialist state, you can commit a triple rape with murder and arson on t
mircea_popescu: he side and walk. i kid you not.
mircea_popescu: so he could have anything he wanted, and what he wanted was... ustardian miracle cures.
mircea_popescu: he paid, uncountable treasures, to be supplied with the idiotic if glittery productions of a scam industry across the sea.
mircea_popescu: it boggled my mind.
mircea_popescu: he eventually escaped, to berlin, with wife. was nearly shot in the process. the year ? 1988.
ascii_butugychag: esp in 90s
mircea_popescu: and he was never a doctor again.
ascii_butugychag: aha like my mother

mircea_popescu: it's a particular problem for people who had a good spot in "the bad empire" moving on to "the good empire". they don't get a BETTER spot and rarely can cope.
mircea_popescu: hard to explain to doofus that the ONLY reason he has the good spot is that the bad empire sucks, and so he has no competition.
ascii_butugychag: why should he care?
mircea_popescu: he should care if he aims to become an international actor.
mircea_popescu: or more generally : if he wants control of his future.
ascii_butugychag: but that's the thing, he didn't 'aim'
mircea_popescu: yes, he did.
ascii_butugychag: just dropped without parachute
mircea_popescu: the moment he purported to make the decision of "where to go", he defined himself as "equivalent to the politburo"

mod6: the main problem here is going to be tagging the MANIFEST file, like i did in the 'test-v054-REL-wLayout.vpatch' -- because it'll be a clearsigned file. no way to 'tag' a file like that.
mod6: But I don't need to tag every file in the 'test-layout.vpatch' to tie it in, just one file will suffice.
mod6: *shrug*
mod6: here's a look at the 'test-v054-REL-wLayout.vpatch': http://dpaste.com/312TB48.txt
mod6: I put all of this in here as I think that this way forward with the new layout generated from vpatches could work.
punkman: I still don't get why the version tagging is needed
mod6: ok -- so in this scenario (before the introduction of 'test-v054-REL-wLayout.vpatch') the 'test-layout.vpatch' is a disconnected node - its own root/leaf if you like
mod6: the idea of the release vpatch is to tie all of the leafs together to a single node.
punkman: ah yeah this was in the logs
