(trilema) mike_c: kakobrekla: ping.
(trilema) mike_c: ;;later tell hanbot it's working now. looks like it was a problem talking to bitbet server. improving the error message is on the todo list. thanks for the bug report.
(trilema) mike_c: i pwned his box for kicks too
(trilema) mike_c: sry, btcalpha put coinflow out of bizness
(trilema) mike_c: ;;calc (13 + 14 + 15 + 16 + 17 + 18 + 19) / 7

(trilema) mike_c: sell to suckers, profit.
(trilema) mike_c: the only thing worthwhile is the automation. make it easy for non-programmers to put in their own methodologies.
(trilema) mike_c: if it works.. run it?
(trilema) mike_c: 20 year old bug, good luck figuring out author.
(trilema) mike_c: oh. (smacks face) I was talking about author of exploit before, not bug. sorry for misinformation.
(trilema) mike_c: if you start with security in mind, then audits can be useful process during development.
(trilema) mike_c: my point is you can't take existing turd and audit it to security.
(trilema) mike_c: gee, every single one of my ec2 servers is scheduled for a reboot now.
(trilema) mike_c: not even a keyid?
(trilema) mike_c: of course. so you have vulnerable bash. doesn't mean someone can hit it through your web server. i guess i gotta construct applicable http request.
(trilema) mike_c: doesn't mean your box is open.
(trilema) mike_c: yes, that checks if bash is vuln.
(trilema) mike_c: any good way to check if you're actually vulnerable?
(trilema) mike_c: so.. just b/c you have vulnerable bash doesn't mean you got pwned.
(trilema) mike_c: old news? asciilifeform: Stephane Chazelas is author.
(trilema) mike_c: kuzetsa: ok, thanks
(trilema) mike_c: shit, i gotta read more.
(trilema) mike_c: yes, but i thought shocky thingy required cgi/bash to chane env
(trilema) mike_c: what? how is env getting set if no cgi/bash shit?
(trilema) mike_c: but to audit existing btc wallet? forget it.
(trilema) mike_c: if i wrote a new btc wallet (or managed development thereof), it would be secure for fear of above methods
(trilema) mike_c: these methods (beating, wot, etc) could be applied to new software
(trilema) mike_c: seemed to be heading that direction :)
(trilema) mike_c: sweet, paypal!
(trilema) mike_c: !s cgi-bin
(trilema) mike_c: inurl is optimistic.
(trilema) mike_c: perhaps not. we didn't see double digits (yet) this year
(trilema) mike_c: hilarious, but i'm with BingoBoingo on BTC tshirts
(trilema) mike_c: ^ paging pankkake
(trilema) mike_c: i am a fan of the security bug bounties (if they are sizable). gives hackers a way to do their thing and get paid legally.
(trilema) mike_c: security audit is basically impossible.
(trilema) mike_c: meet behind the school at noon
(trilema) mike_c: k, i'll be around
(trilema) mike_c: mp_sails: ping
(trilema) mike_c: thx kakobrekla
(trilema) mike_c: ascii: i now have your fingerprints on file and can hack ur iphone
(trilema) mike_c: and a happy androgenous person!
(trilema) mike_c: " If for some reason I do decide to use any of the existing graphic components, a quick search on Google for 'clipart of man holding clipboard' and 'blue wiggly line for no apparent reason' should suffice." lol
(trilema) mike_c: send complaints to btcalpha design department. they deserve it. http://i.imgur.com/SIOI7Wx.png
(trilema) mike_c: i made one yesterday. it sucked, so i need to make another one.
(trilema) mike_c: says 442 BTC in bets, but 1.96 btc was income from bets resolved
(trilema) mike_c: monthly statements indicate it's when bets are resolved.
(trilema) mike_c: to put a different way, is all that brk money going out as divs this month? :)
(trilema) mike_c: efficient at examining dead bodies.
(trilema) mike_c: only 7 months for the coroner's report. efficient!
(trilema) mike_c: this is ancient news, yes?
(trilema) mike_c: Nick___: which bet was yours? hover over the 'time' column to get a link to the bet.
(trilema) mike_c: heh, yeah. i meant it will be millions plural once btc goes up and people flood into yes.
(trilema) mike_c: ;;calc 2816 * [ticker --last]
(trilema) mike_c: definitely.
(trilema) mike_c: this is nuts: http://www.btcalpha.com/bitbet/786/ you could drop 5,000 btc on either side and get decent returns.
(trilema) mike_c: berkshire is a constant
(trilema) mike_c: certainly
(trilema) mike_c: jborkl: totally unsolicited advice: interview format might be good for this one.
(trilema) mike_c: but the story is hot now. 1500 BTC bet short on bitcoin sounds like a juicy headline.
(trilema) mike_c: if i ran the chamber of commerce i likely have already written a dozen articles about bitbet :)
(trilema) mike_c: man, if i ran a site called bitcoin news i would be knocking down bitbet's door to get an interview about this huge bet going on.
(trilema) mike_c: ;;market baratio
(trilema) mike_c: big lol. ty for pointing that out.
(trilema) mike_c: i don't know how resistant yandex is to black hat seo.
(trilema) mike_c: depends where they get traffic from. if they are pushing seo hard maybe they will be ranking higher than you.
(trilema) mike_c: of course. you can report them to google (and maybe even yandex?)
(trilema) mike_c: my thoughts go down the path of: 1) start pinging their site, see when it updates. 2) correlate with my server logs and see where they are scraping from
(trilema) mike_c: unless you just want to put them on the ignore list.
(trilema) mike_c: depends on what they said. more communication = more opportunities for slipup/information.
(trilema) mike_c: i was thinking more like 'i c you are valuable affiliate partner, who are you?'
(trilema) mike_c: also, did you try emailing them yet?
(trilema) mike_c: must be crappy machine translation. ascii?
(trilema) mike_c: any of those guys russian? theymos, nefario, etc.?
(trilema) mike_c: oh, derp. ic on trilema
(trilema) mike_c: they get bored quickly. how did you find it? usually they don't get much traffic
(trilema) mike_c: enforced by browser ofc, like all web sekurity
(trilema) mike_c: ThickAsThieves: no.
(trilema) mike_c: aw, it's gone.
(trilema) mike_c: although i did scam BB once.
(trilema) mike_c: heh, me doing the scam site? plz. btcalpha is more up to date than that thing.
(trilema) mike_c: silly russians
(trilema) mike_c: doesn't have today's action on brk
(trilema) mike_c: lol, it's out of date.
(trilema) mike_c: this was my first experience with romania.. i launched my website and some .ro clone pointing at my server popped up a week later.
(trilema) mike_c: yeah, the above mentioned was me.
(trilema) mike_c: so the 1000 was ref free. good for shareholders :)
(trilema) mike_c: kakobrekla, anyone hit the affiliate lottery today?
(trilema) mike_c: long puts = short difficulty
(trilema) mike_c: explode upwards.
(trilema) mike_c: publicity!
(trilema) mike_c: buckle up. tomorrow when warren says it was his bet, btcusd will explode.
(trilema) mike_c: only 1k btc short now ;)
(trilema) mike_c: TaT.. fess up. this is your short.
(trilema) mike_c: wtf []bot
(trilema) mike_c: holy shit, i missed the 2nd 500
(trilema) mike_c: as is syria.
(trilema) mike_c: i guess this is true. it is only losing pieces.
(trilema) mike_c: tell ukraine that
(trilema) mike_c: big countries eat small countries.
(trilema) mike_c: bitbet says scotland will stay with the UK
(trilema) mike_c: today i believe
(trilema) mike_c: nonprofit goal is to not book a profit, but they certainly want as much revenue as they can get.
(trilema) mike_c: i don't like circle's look. not as good as ethereum.
(trilema) mike_c: i don't think package is the issue there. more the parimutuel/weight system.
(trilema) mike_c: so in this case perhaps superficial = casual gambler.
(trilema) mike_c: intel is on what, 14 nm?
(trilema) mike_c: but the implication being that BB does not currently have nice package?
(trilema) mike_c: kakobrekla: i felt like that conversation the other day started in the middle. what is your position exactly?
(trilema) mike_c: helen was a thin pretense for the launching of ships. kinda like WMD.
(trilema) mike_c: ;;ud millihelen
(trilema) mike_c: and wtf, doesn't helen have one l?
(trilema) mike_c: please, beauty. none. helen was a thin pretense.
(trilema) mike_c: well, a valid question would be: how much user friendly would be required to pull in 500 btc in bets.
(trilema) mike_c: physicists are probably looking for a 3rd option, but might take awhile.
(trilema) mike_c: hehe. "I don't have time" 'then use space' "I don't like space!"
(trilema) mike_c: um, what about what everybody else does. lookup table.
(trilema) mike_c: this activity is hurting kakobrekla's theory that bitbet need moar user friendly
(trilema) mike_c: i sent the link to warren, we're tight.
(trilema) mike_c: i can confirm that a 1 yr old is terrible random number generator. they focus on a small subset of keys and bang.
(trilema) mike_c: ^ 50% above mkt price..
(trilema) mike_c: that's pay date.
(trilema) mike_c: interesting. thankfully i don't do my company's books.
(trilema) mike_c: but tax year is calendar..
(trilema) mike_c: well then i'll shut up
(trilema) mike_c: dub: actually for some stupid reason many US companies use July 1 as start of fiscal year
(trilema) mike_c: i have to point it out quick before the data turns against me.
(trilema) mike_c: so last two days 37 btc ain't bad, i'm still insinuating a causation ;)
(trilema) mike_c: 3 day = median 26.6, avg 41.7
(trilema) mike_c: 2 day = median 18.7, avg 28.15
(trilema) mike_c: avg is 14.5
(trilema) mike_c: mircea_popescu: median since July 1 is 6 btc
(trilema) mike_c: so.. do that?
(trilema) mike_c: it's a tough way to make an easy living
(trilema) mike_c: well, if you are focused on return/day you should only bet on things that are going to close early.
(trilema) mike_c: about 5 weeks
(trilema) mike_c: i could put timestamps, seemed redundant.
(trilema) mike_c: there's weight :)
(trilema) mike_c: note that higher weight had significantly higher ROI
(trilema) mike_c: you can make bets with different weight. i used to make sports bets that ended at 90,000
(trilema) mike_c: what would you change?
(trilema) mike_c: well i am rooting for bitbet. tired of building tools that are obsolete a few months after i ship them.
(trilema) mike_c: last 48 hours have been busiest two days for bitbet this month.. right after btcalpha launched the analyzer. coincidence?
(trilema) mike_c: perhpas the bettor is not considering this period only.
(trilema) mike_c: ;;calc [echo $rand] + 512 / 1024
(trilema) mike_c: he means bit4x.com folks.
(trilema) mike_c: worst. marketer. evah.
(trilema) mike_c: multiplication?
(trilema) mike_c: most slanted bitbet out there, starting to look better. http://bitbet.us/bet/1041/euro-sinks-against-usd/
(trilema) mike_c: The20YearIRCloud: so why don't they just put in bids..
(trilema) mike_c: mircea_popescu: see? why else care what the stock price is.
(trilema) mike_c: kakobrekla is. he is president of bitstamp fan club.
(trilema) mike_c: small claims court ftw.
(trilema) mike_c: no way. if you use a lawyer to sue your clients you end up losing money.
(trilema) mike_c: i like it :)
(trilema) mike_c: asciilifeform: I'll try it on my son tomorrow night and let you know how it goes
(trilema) mike_c: elmo had four ducks
(trilema) mike_c: kakobrekla: is toshi what was/is powering blockr?
(trilema) mike_c: page2 used to be really good. then the good writers died and it turned to crap.
(trilema) mike_c: ralph wiley i think
(trilema) mike_c: there was another good guy who died.
(trilema) mike_c: BingoBoingo: is this a new discovery for you? I used to love it when HST was writing for page 2
(trilema) mike_c: yup, makes sense
(trilema) mike_c: <+mircea_popescu> mike_c btw, make yourself a banner << hm? a banner for what?
(trilema) mike_c: sweet. i think any changes that involve giving mike some stuff is a good idea.
(trilema) mike_c: ok, stupid bug squashed, close bets list working.
(trilema) mike_c: close bets is broken on that page atm.. will be fixed shortly. some fucking python 2.6 decimal bug.
(trilema) mike_c: in the middle
(trilema) mike_c: yeah it is
(trilema) mike_c: no, that's the hottest on the analysis page. it just missed the publishing deadline.
(trilema) mike_c: now it's second
(trilema) mike_c: it was until 5 minutes ago
(trilema) mike_c: worth the wait
(trilema) mike_c: to the sending address though, that can cause problems too. it is better, but not great.
(trilema) mike_c: but refund where?
(trilema) mike_c: hm, it does sound wrong.. tough problem to get right.
(trilema) mike_c: and now the merchant is responsible for returning the coins.
(trilema) mike_c: thestringpuller: so they say "send 1 btc to stringpuller in the next 10 mins to buy this book", and if it gets sent in 20 mins they still send along the coins?
(trilema) mike_c: they cancel a tx?
(trilema) mike_c: it's the default font. what's wrong with blue? it's soothing.
(trilema) mike_c: he hasn't quit yet
(trilema) mike_c: also, that you actually need the hash to deliver, which is difficult because you have to keep adding power to be relevant.
(trilema) mike_c: interesting
(trilema) mike_c: you report block solutions that aren't good enough but close.
(trilema) mike_c: this is solved with shares, yes?
(trilema) mike_c: they banned assbot too! :)
(trilema) mike_c: you think they put in a mod_rewrite for trilema that redirects to homepage? that makes little sense.
(trilema) mike_c: are you doing more issuances?
(trilema) mike_c: the lower the price goes the higher the yield! :)
(trilema) mike_c: ;;calc -.00085027 / 0.0055
(trilema) mike_c: -0.00085027
(trilema) mike_c: !t h rent
(trilema) mike_c: i printed out the source code 3 years ago and i retype it into each server i want to run nginx on to ensure no problems.
(trilema) mike_c: i like hiding behind nginx. igor is smart.
(trilema) mike_c: more like shit that can go wrong while making sense of the request itself. grep nginx changelogs for the last four years for plentiful examples
(trilema) mike_c: still gotta process the http request.
(trilema) mike_c: sure you are
(trilema) mike_c: http is kinda hard. you're exposing yourself to untrusted input from the wild
(trilema) mike_c: the atlantic is trying to steal my bitcoin
(trilema) mike_c: da fuck with that atlantic article. i tried it in 3 browsers and it crashed them all.
(trilema) mike_c: the only surprise to me was just how low the correlation was.
(trilema) mike_c: tea leaves came up empty
(trilema) mike_c: but it was stupid
(trilema) mike_c: looking at any reasonable timeframe it is nothing. I tried to force it. took just the last few months, removed some of the recent dip/spikes, and got it up to 0.5
(trilema) mike_c: i don't know about stand alone, but it is when combined with the exchange rate in any fashion.
(trilema) mike_c: ThickAsThieves: by the way, i did some rounds of correlation analysis. s.mpoe continues to defy explanation. there is certainly no correlation to the exchange rate.
(trilema) mike_c: oh, wait, this is what happenned
(trilema) mike_c: and what do you do when the biggest exchange goes apeshit and has a price that is 50% different than the others for weeks?
(trilema) mike_c: ah, excellent
(trilema) mike_c: RagnarDanneskjol: did you mention awhile ago that you were involved with a new ATC block explorer? or did I make that up in a dream?
(trilema) mike_c: he is not related to magicaltux
(trilema) mike_c: his buddy is also big into prop bets (and has a few more twitter followers) https://twitter.com/MagicAntonio
(trilema) mike_c: although i think he recently fucked himself up in an atv accidant
(trilema) mike_c: he has an audience, haven't checked for a blog.
(trilema) mike_c: if you're looking for somebody smart i'd try to reach out to phil laak. he's a famous poker player who is really into prop bets and has a very smart/analytical mind.
(trilema) mike_c: i.e. are you looking for coindesk or ascii?
(trilema) mike_c: well, what are you looking for? somebody with a random blog that you could pay to write an article? or somebody important who will write about it if it interests them?
(trilema) mike_c: probably some of the big time poker players would be good targets.
(trilema) mike_c: hm.. prop bets.
(trilema) mike_c: gambling is a bit broad for a blog. you interested in sports, poker, other?
(trilema) mike_c: 2+2 is the best gambling forum. not so much blog.
(trilema) mike_c: twoplustwo
(trilema) mike_c: ^ like money
(trilema) mike_c: hm, asicminer actually releases a product and stock price sinks?
(trilema) mike_c: your tea leaves think it will keep sinking?
