ThickAsThieves: how long til someone makes blockchain-based DRM?
asciilifeform: ThickAsThieves: care to elaborate?
ThickAsThieves: well DRM seeks to identify an owner and allow it to access a property
ThickAsThieves: like mp3s
ThickAsThieves: i was half-joking half wondering honestly
ThickAsThieves: in the case of mp3s, like all drm
ThickAsThieves: it's obv a waste of time
ThickAsThieves: i havent put much thought into it otherwise
ThickAsThieves: i suppose people would just share their keys
BingoBoingo: ThickAsThieves: Well most DRM is pki based anyway. I don't see what adding a blockchain to it might do other than maybe allow rights transfers. I don't think many people interested in DRM though are people interested in making rights transfers easier though.
ThickAsThieves: it'd allow for a decentralized spotify?

BingoBoingo: ThickAsThieves: Well, blockchains have limits on their usefulness. It works in Bitcoin because everyone values having a distributed consensus ledger and enough people have a vested interest to maintain this ledger. I dunno if anyone other than Spotify is particularly interested in spotifies ledger when they would rather store music than an account of the music everyone has.
KRS1: you can really send digital content via blockchain? crazy
BingoBoingo: KRS1: Well, namecoin. If it didn't suck so much and miners wrote transactions with lots of data to blocks...
ThickAsThieves: you could also do it with a superficial service
ThickAsThieves: using wallets as keys
ThickAsThieves: like a web browser that was keyed to you or such

assbot: [HAVELOCK] [AM100] 166 @ 0.00410003 = 0.6806 BTC [-] {4}
BingoBoingo: The problem with blockchains for trivial uses is that block chains have a large cost in terms of storage required. Bitcoin's blockchain is small because the number of bitcoins transactions is small. A blockchain based however off of the iTunes catalog and all of the iTunes users however would not be small.

Namworld: Havelock rejected Coinroll's IPO because the structure of the IPO (5% raising funds, 5% investors monetizing their investment) was too complicated and they didn't see how investors would benefit if their funds go to previous owners (nevermind that they they're buying out their shares and right to profits/the business)

mike_c: they are only serving US "to start". of course, they can't start until they finish their website. yet they are projecting 21 btc profit next month.
Namworld: They refused Coinroll's IPO because previous investors selling their shares and funds not going to develop a business is too complicated and doesn't offer anything to investors. Nevermind that Coinroll is already running and would be issuing bigger dividends than any other fund on Havelock right away.

BingoBoingo: benkay: You might as well. Blogging is like Brussels sprouts. No matter what you expections are something about the venutre is going to taste kind of bitter until the frost sets.
pankkake: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=401481.msg4350881#msg4350881 for example, it gets me to the top of the page anyway

benkay: spelling errors man. how do even english.
ThickAsThieves: albeit when it's close to the bottom it is somewhat ineffective
jurov: topace you around?
pankkake: lol coinelius/twentyseventy. just do the inverse of what he does and you'll be fine
benkay: i was reading some other derpage from him recently as well.
benkay: didn't even bother to file it.
benkay: BingoBoingo: you made me log in to wordpress. and fuck with their horrible gravatar situation. timescammer!
BingoBoingo: benkay: You shouldn't have to.
benkay: I know.
benkay: Your defaults are showing.
pankkake: wordpress.com blogs force you to log on if you have a wordpress.com account with that email
benkay: this whole "federate identity across all platforms" routine is a little tired at this point.
mike_c: yeah, but so is having 500 different sets of credentials
benkay: yeah, and if you've ever had contact with their systems they'll snarf your email out of the comment field and blapp your identity link into poor BingoBoingo's blog.
mike_c: openid for the win?
benkay: cardano for the win
benkay: all comments must be gpg signed
mike_c: until your dog hits the kill switch
benkay: well you have two, right?
jurov: what?
mike_c: yeah, with a master signing key you keep in the garden it would work
benkay: one to sign the public key of the one you carry around.
BingoBoingo: I'm pretty sure just entering nym, any email, and comment should be sufficient. I'll investigate whether or not I need to burn a bunch of PHP when I'm not so drunk.
jurov: they will be quantum entagled?
pankkake: I liked openid, but it is effectively dead
mike_c: stackoverflow tried to use it. i was surprised that didn't work.
benkay: log in with cryptotoken. it's the only way.
pankkake: at least I could self-host it… now a lot of websites throw you facebook in the face
pankkake: because, and that is truly a problem, people are too lazy to create a new account, and manage passwords
benkay: time heals all this idiocy. red queen patterns etc.
pankkake: the only thing I dislike with static blogs is the comment handling. usually, it's… disqus
pankkake: but I've seen implementations of one of my dreams: a comment-by-email
benkay: yeah. i'm thinking about how to do comments.
pankkake: plus, email already has antispams. why reinvent the wheel
mike_c: that is a good idea. identity friendly, if not user friendly.
benkay: not buying into one of these federated identity services - that'd run counter to the whole point.
benkay: sheeeit, mike_c, if someone can't handle comments by email i don't want 'em commenting.
mike_c: it's not that they can't handle, just raises the bar for doing so. you'll get fewer comments.
pankkake: that was my main reason for chosing wordpress; so many plugins, comments with working antispam
mike_c: not sure how trilema's works, but it seems a reasonable compromise.
pankkake: well some clients/webmails don't provide a good way to have multiple identities
benkay: ;;google trilema spam
pankkake: perhaps add a special tag on top of the mail to change it; and also provide a URL
pankkake: lol zerohedge

mike_c: i'm more interested in the identity side though. what's the right compromise for allowing attribution to commenters without making them create an account?
benkay: pgp signed comments.
mike_c: heh
mike_c: hardly a compromise
benkay: no way man
pankkake: use bootstrap
benkay: errybody's going to have to get at least conversant with privacy tools.
mike_c: yes, and highcharts. obviously.
pankkake: I used to dislike bootstrap because so many websites use it. but so what? interfaces are meant to be standardized
benkay: i don't want to 'use' anything - i want to deploy some capital and have some less generated by a human for me.
pankkake: and if you hate css, it's perfect

BingoBoingo: jurov: Because so many people are betting on Auburn. Auburn is given odds that make it a great value pick. Since most BTC line betting operations pull lines off of USA Today instead of letting odds play on their own and collecting their vig, if Auburn wins I imagine at least a few won't be able to pay winnings.
BingoBoingo: I imagine such a black Tuesday outcome would be great publicity for BitBet though.
mircea_popescu: interesting point.
mircea_popescu: i would imagine all of them strictly consist of one derp, his .5 btc budget and his dreams and aspirations
mircea_popescu: in which case some nice bandwagon effect would probably do what you say sooner or later
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: I've been putting money on Auburn at as many books as I can that haven't been rather conclusively labeled scam yet. Cheaper exercise than the one you did with Patrick Harnett.
mircea_popescu: yeah well... it's easily forgotten that at the time the replacement cost of 500btc was like five grand
BingoBoingo: Well... Yeah. As the years go on though the relative impressiveness of the story will grow simply because n00bs can't remember single dollar digit btc.
assbot: [HAVELOCK] [CFIG] 1 @ 0.12699999 BTC [+]
mircea_popescu: perversely, a good investment in more ways than one
mircea_popescu: noobs also don't remember the entire "btc rating agency" bullshit coming out of his inflamed brain, and consequently don't remember reason #5498045986 why bitcoin didn't go to shit before they had a chance to hear of it.
BingoBoingo: Well, yeah. Breaking one of the "big guys" and firmly placing yourself as the bigger and more solvent guy
jurov: it's there but i never did line betting, what does this mean?
jurov: there's 4.2BTC bet on?
mircea_popescu: jurov line betting vs mutual betting is like bucket shop vs stock exchange. in the line model all trades are against the house.
jurov: i know how it works
mircea_popescu: it's as if anyone buying shares bought from the nyse itself, and anyone selling sold to nyse itself
mircea_popescu: and nyse came up with an arbitrary price each morning
jurov: but am interested how to read the stats
mircea_popescu: stock generation style
BingoBoingo: jurov: It means an Auburn win returns roughly quadruple your initial bet. Looks like similar odds I've been buying, but I've heard that site was scam already.
mircea_popescu: basically it's what you make in each case
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo i love it how they never advertise their house limit, too
mike_c: 11 point spread and 4.2 money line? that does sound attractive.
mircea_popescu: i imagine if someone sends 10k btc on their stated odds all sorts of fun ensues.
jurov: they certainly have some limit
mircea_popescu: link to it :)
BingoBoingo: +320 on Auburn means you would win 320 dollars on a 100 dollar ticket. -380 on Florida State means you would win 100/380 on your 100 dollar ticket
mircea_popescu: such ignorant notation too. negative and fractional, same thing. blergh
BingoBoingo: mike_c: There are much better probably scam sports books out there
mike_c: hah. the vegas line is +295.
BingoBoingo: mike_c: I wouldn't take the spread though. On value bets liek this ML tends to be better in the long run
mike_c: no bitbet
mike_c: too many nerds on bitbet for football
BingoBoingo: mike_c: I did the bitbet too on both sides, but they are closed
ozbot: BitBet - BTC will hit $1000 without dropping to $100
mircea_popescu: i love the bbet commenters every time
mike_c: so looks like it got one bet other than you
mike_c: i agree with mp, once football bets are popular on bitbet we will know the gold rush is over.
mircea_popescu: certainly not this silliness where bitbet lays a quarter million bucks on any diff bet easy,
mircea_popescu: and you struggle to get 1k together on football prime time events
BingoBoingo: mike_c: I don't know if they will ever be too popular. The problem of tracking a whole season seems better suited to bucket shops and line betting operations. Marquee events and championships that can get traffic though should do better on the BitBet model though.
jurov: i dunno, i can easily imagine football junkies prefer betting where they know the win in advance
BingoBoingo: Sports betting I've come to see is kind of a niche market.
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo ideally it evolves as an exchange (ie, a myriad actually honest operators do line betting and promotion, and then meet on bitbet and hedge in a liquid market)
jurov: even if mutual may be more profitable, effective, intelligent etc.
BingoBoingo: Maybe even more navel gazing than bitcoin.
mike_c: yeah, all those prop bets with terrible odds at the bookie would be much better on bitbet like "team to win the championship" or super bowl props.
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: Sure, but given how often the gambling type (the kind who are so quick to forgive SealswithClubs for their hack) go for the familiar over the good it might be a decade. At least Bitcoin has plenty of time to fix this.
mike_c: and bitbet is welcome for the audit :) my fee is 0.061 btc.
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo no but the idea is, the ops themselves have more of a clue. obviously as it is now, every failed seo expert/14 yo running his own site this won't be the case
mircea_popescu: but these will lose their shirt within months, not decades.
mircea_popescu: to survive people will have to use the tools.
mircea_popescu: mike_c >D
BingoBoingo: They might stretch it out a while. People can be irrational longer than we expect as Usagi being able to list a silver instrument of some indeterminate form on a scam exchange illustrates.
mircea_popescu: so the model for sports is, there are say 10-12 respectable bookie type sites, which do all the forum spamming and general dicking around with the punters,
mircea_popescu: then they actually trade their takes on bitbet. say one got 50 btc on yes 12 on no, the other 5 on yes 64 on no etc
mircea_popescu: they can't sanely hold on to this, so they all bet on the yes/no bitbet according to their book
BingoBoingo: Sure, like the cloning intrade but actually backing it on BitBet which is real
mike_c: that would work better with bitbet v2 without a linear weight
mircea_popescu: best of both worlds.
mircea_popescu: allows people to be entrepreneurs, allows risk to be correctly handled, allows punters to not have to think and be fleeced for it.
mircea_popescu: everyone's happy, and the market grows
mircea_popescu: at least that's the model
BingoBoingo: mike_c: BitBet now works fine. Just when you write a sports bet make sure to not end the weight at 1
mircea_popescu: mike_c they're all in the same timeline so they really don't care about the weight
assbot: [MPEX] [S.MPOE] 10946 @ 0.00091265 = 9.9899 BTC [+]
mircea_popescu: 5 minute differences or w/e may be the round-trip time for "x got injured" among the bookies won't show up in the bitbet weight anyway
BingoBoingo: mike_c: Sports bets do benefit from some sort of attached weight though, especially in hand egg because of injuries, arrests, and fat athletes having heart attacks
assbot: [HAVELOCK] [AM1] 1 @ 0.4643 BTC [-]
mike_c: I agree weight of some type is important. but we beat that horse dead a couple weeks ago.
mircea_popescu: some horses need to be beaten many times
mike_c: next time i beat the horse i will have a simulator in hand to show how the alternate model works.
mircea_popescu: the previous horse hath not died in vain
BingoBoingo: Horses are cheap
mircea_popescu: whorses too
ozbot: BitBet - BFL will deliver 28nm before Jan 6 2014
mircea_popescu: who the fuck laid out on yes
BingoBoingo: I dunno. Around here people will pay you to take a horse. We really need to get to eating them already.
BingoBoingo: Inaba probably laid out for yes, but obviously doesn't have the capital he had last year...
mircea_popescu: i imagine throwing away btc is a lot more painful than it used to be too
mircea_popescu: once it sprinted from 30 to 1k people see 10k with different eyes
ozbot: BitBet - Simona Halep to win Roland Garros
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo you're better at this than me, can you get me what the bookies say on this prop ?
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: A lot of fiat books are showing longer odds that Halep wins. This is the sort of bet though where outcomes other than yes/no might make BitBet more interesting (meaning for example a single French open bet with the option to bet on each competitor, ie you run bets like the pony track does for some events)
pankkake: not enough nerds on bitbet for starcraft
mircea_popescu: longer like how long ?
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: 15-17.5 to one
BingoBoingo: Bitcoin tennis fans aren't rich enough to balance your love for her tits though
mircea_popescu: how is a single bet for 6 people better than 6 yes/no bets ? cause larger pool ?
assbot: [MPEX] [S.MPOE] 7750 @ 0.00091285 = 7.0746 BTC [+]
pankkake: I thought tennis was the sport for rich people. like golf
mircea_popescu: pankkake old money = stupid = btc poor
pankkake: old money is btc zero
pankkake: btc poor is teenagers with gpus
mircea_popescu: that's a point
BingoBoingo: Well, consider a futures bet for X wins championsip of such and such league. Where the teams competing are fixed well in advanced of the seasons start. 30 baseball teams for example, you can bet on anyof them to win the world series. Maybe the pot isn't bigger, but having all of the options in one pool makes pricing risk more straight forward.
ArsKisS: wutwut
BingoBoingo: Close that bet when the season starts and as the season progresses let bets open for the outcomes of individual teams.
mircea_popescu: how does it make pricing more straightforward ? i thought it makes it a nightmare
ArsKisS: they pay some good looking dividends and then skyrocket
kakobrekla: again vritual mining?
ArsKisS: yup
kakobrekla: virtual mining of virtual currency
kakobrekla: virtually scam.
KRS1: lol
ArsKisS: virtuous
pankkake: consortium!
pankkake: "A consortium is an association of two or more individuals" ok I guess that works
BingoBoingo: Well, depending on how you approach the problem of pricing in that situation it could be more of a nightmare of it could be a glorious consilodated market.
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo let's try and model. three teams, a, b and c. a has 20 btc on it to win, b 15, c 27.
mircea_popescu: what's the odds a wins ?
mircea_popescu: cause if the bet is "a wins" y/n, then you deffo know what the odds are.
ArsKisS: hmm
ArsKisS: is there a way you can see whole cryptostocks history somehow
ArsKisS: this is silly that the history is just couple of pages long
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: Roughly 1/3
mircea_popescu: ArsKisS perhaps you are missing their wisdom there.
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo 20 / 62 ?
ArsKisS: mircea_popescu, err?
mircea_popescu: and isn't y/n more straightforward ? not that a lot of adding shit is impossible to do.
mircea_popescu: ArsKisS they know their history won't ever look good, so why publish it too much.
ArsKisS: mircea_popescu, but it's about MY history
BingoBoingo: Break that into three yes/no bets though a b and c can all have bets such that all teams are favored to win. That creates an opportunity for great arbitrage, but... This is Bitcoin and people still buy "mining"
ArsKisS: mircea_popescu, talking about Account -> Legend

KRS1: BingoBoingo: yeah the markets have to calm down a bit
KRS1: everyones complaining of manipulation
BingoBoingo: KRS1: I'm not talking about that. The BTC/Fiat interface is boring and overdone. I'm thinking applications of BTC tht take advantage of its function as a store of value (ie the most popular use of BTC)
BingoBoingo: Oh, Auburn is leading the handegg BCS thing 14-3 right nao
benkay: Just what /can/ one do with BTC held cold, BingoBoingo? Soundslike one o yer classic FR scams.
BingoBoingo: I think 3 sounds like a good over under for how many line betting ventures might fold tomorrw
BingoBoingo: benkay: Who said holding has to be cold. I'm thinking Fidelity bonds and such. One of the few people who dealt with Inputs.io and didn't get fucked was Dooglus who made TradeFortress keep a bond with him in exchange for him accepting deposits though TF's platform. Such things seem a natural growth from GPG contracts and other crypto goodness.
benkay: TF put btc on reserve, or promised to pay?
BingoBoingo: Million dollar BTC doesn't happen because Bitcoin is a better gum buying tool than a quarter at the gumball machine. It happens through a lot of BTC being tied up in contracts.
BingoBoingo: benkay: As I understand he made a deposit to Dooglus in advance
BingoBoingo: Well before his collapse.
pankkake: that was a very smart move :)
benkay: those coins have to be 'cold' until that contracts terms are invoked, correct?
BingoBoingo: Because such a deposit existed Dooglus was able to extract exactly what he was owed as opposed to submitting himself to the arbitrary fractional repayment/settlement mess TF devised.
BingoBoingo: benkay: Of course coins in such an arrangement have to stay cold.
BingoBoingo: The value of the coins though is as a store.
benkay: the Dooglus property in question being just-dice?
BingoBoingo: benkay: Yup.
benkay: BingoBoingo: why did j-d have a dependency on inputs.io in the first place?
BingoBoingo: benkay: They didn't have any dependency. They just wanted more deposit options and TF was willing to deposit a fidelity bond to cover deposits through inputs.io
benkay: ah so if i can recap
assbot: [HAVELOCK] [SFI] 2090 @ 0.001 = 2.09 BTC [+]
benkay: j-d made themselves an inputs.io account to which IIO victims could send btc without blockchain confirmations or such, and the fidelity bond was to cover however that account
benkay: however *much* that account *was holding when IIO went down
BingoBoingo: That roughly seems to be it. I've traversed quite a bit of this handle of vodka I trekked through the polar vortex to acquire, but it sounds right. Depositors just weren't inputs.io victims yet.
assbot: [MPEX] [S.MPOE] 2117 @ 0.00091285 = 1.9325 BTC [+]
mircea_popescu: benkay there was no depending, tf was in search of adding value to his otherwise not particularly useful service
benkay: all webwallet users are victims, they just don't know it yet.
BingoBoingo: Well, yeah
mircea_popescu: associating with things like jd made sense in that perspective. doog had enough sense to keep it at arms length
BingoBoingo: Every year a new batch of people makes that clear.
assbot: [HAVELOCK] [AM1] 1 @ 0.465 BTC [+]
Duffer1: yea :(
benkay: mircea_popescu there were dependencies if j-d had to have a surety bond

BingoBoingo: benkay: It is the bottom post on that page
benkay: well, in ffox anyways.
pankkake: ah, I'm not the only one!
mircea_popescu: mp grins at BingoBoingo's link, knowing full well he was the original investor that insisted dooglus use a gpg scheme to certify investment movements.
mircea_popescu: apparently it caught on. win.
BingoBoingo: I dunno that I was the one to tell that to dooglus.
ozbot: BitBet Stole ~$7,000 from me (10 BTC)

benkay: then nsa's name will be trashed on the forums forever
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: I'm looking through my investment records (ie staring wistfully at my vodka) and dun see any record of me having invested in just-dice
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo me not you
pankkake: don't forget mp talks in the third person
mircea_popescu: sometimes :D
mircea_popescu: lol they're still derping on that topic ?
BingoBoingo: pankkake: I've tried translating MP a few times. Talking in the third person is the least tricky thing MP does.

mircea_popescu: sometimes he talks in french. other times he talks in odd words only.
pankkake: that bitbet think will never die
pankkake: thing
benkay: more like if you think its too long you probably don't have it in you to actually read it ;)
benkay: what, it's 10K!
mircea_popescu: i thought he was doing more like a public service thing
benkay: kid probably makes 2x that a year.
benkay: he can yell for six months at that rate before
mircea_popescu: benkay i thought it's diff kids carrying the torch. perhaps not.
benkay: a self catalyzing bitchfest?
benkay: it's like a smouldering log - but whence the o2?
mircea_popescu: maybe it's just fascinating.
mircea_popescu: i would guess a large section of the us poor has never encountered this situation where an entity pointedly doesn't give a shit about them
pankkake: isn't it all the time?
pankkake: unless they get enough retweets
mircea_popescu: no, see, there's a difference
mircea_popescu: case 1 : you go to an interview, they never call you back. you apply for a loan, they never call you back. you give a girl your number, she never calls you
mircea_popescu: case 2 : you got to an interview, they tell you you're fucking retarded and get lost
jcpham: f that
jcpham: +1
mircea_popescu: you apply for a loan, they tell you you're a fucking prole and you may never ever have a loan
mircea_popescu: you give a girl a number and she laughs her ass off
mircea_popescu: very different things these
pankkake: once I went to an interview, they never called me back, but it was mutual
CuWireBeard: Oh no rejection, however will a person press on!
BingoBoingo: Oh, Auburn is still winning at half time 21-10. However will line betting survive.

ozbot: FBI Drops Law Enforcement as 'Primary' Mission
benkay: they see the writing on the wall w/r/t drug seizures funding their operations, i gather.
mircea_popescu: benkay more like, "what law".
asciilifeform: 'national security' might as well 'lettre de cachet enforcement'. wonder why they bothered formalizing it.
mircea_popescu: i doubt there's any intent involved
mircea_popescu: 3rd rate paper writer wrote a word he liked.
mircea_popescu: According to a recent Pew Research Center survey, more than five-in-ten members of the public and roughly six-in-ten members of the Council on Foreign Relations (CFR), a nonpartisan membership organization and think tank specializing in U.S. foreign policy, agree that the United States plays a less important role around the world than it did a decade ago.
mircea_popescu: jeez, and here i thought i'm a lone prophet in a sea of denial
mircea_popescu: where's pew find these members of the public ?!

benkay: will fuck with not legacy js for btc
benkay: feed a poor bitfag who wants only to work and some btc for his efforts
pankkake: that is true of any code really
benkay: will fuck with not legacy * for btc
benkay: save me
benkay: js is somehow worse though - if tests are guardrails, ecma is like the salt flats
pankkake: do you get coding jobs in btc?
benkay: 900 MPH GO DON'T WORRY ABOUT SURFACE ROUGHNESS
benkay: i want to book all revenue in btc
pankkake: who wouldn't want that? :)
benkay: don't really want a job though - want more to have projects to deliver for fixed bids.
pankkake: have you done this before?
benkay: here and there.
benkay: heh and what is "this"
pankkake: I fear, even more in the btc world, that you'd have to be very specific about the deliverable
pankkake: "this isn't what i asked for"
benkay: o ya
benkay: huge risk in that style of development.
benkay: *sigh*
