(trilema) mike_c: bitbet does nothing with the money. it's a zac
(trilema) mike_c: it's true. i'll put it on the list
(trilema) mike_c: WoL doesn't have any magicians
(trilema) mike_c: i think of it more as a playground.
(trilema) mike_c: or Altcoin!
(trilema) mike_c: bitcoin is what you put in. bitcoin is what you get out.
(trilema) mike_c: the irs explicitly said bitcoin isn't money
(trilema) mike_c: "money". you can get bitcoin back.
(trilema) mike_c: redeem tickets for stuffed animals.
(trilema) mike_c: ^ like TaT said. put your tokens in, get little tickets.
(trilema) mike_c: more like a cryptocurrency playground
(trilema) mike_c: don't be silly
(trilema) mike_c: minigames are bets against the house
(trilema) mike_c: join the club. i'm working on that.
(trilema) mike_c: WoL does need capital. hence the loan from mpif
(trilema) mike_c: i generally am disappointed when ninjashogun gets upped, but he is a gold mine.
(trilema) mike_c: oh man. bash is improving. there is some funny shit in there.
(trilema) mike_c: confirmed fixed.
(trilema) mike_c: but if it could!
(trilema) mike_c: ok, it doesn't *really* see the future
(trilema) mike_c: it sees the future
(trilema) mike_c: WoL is on 310802 because it is awesome
(trilema) mike_c: blockchains are hard
(trilema) mike_c: raccoons will do it too

(trilema) mike_c: yeah, i got your gribble. it's an interesting idea, I'll think through it.
(trilema) mike_c: nice, war is heating up.
(trilema) mike_c: ;;calc 1048/152506
(trilema) mike_c: benkay: you stuck an extra 0 in there
(trilema) mike_c: lol. cellular automata gets all the chicks
(trilema) mike_c: mircea_popescu:dub hm, what do you hate about it ? that there's not really any "you lose 100%" ? << sometimes there is: https://atc.waroflife.com/gow/11/
(trilema) mike_c: Duffer1: if you are concerned the machine is compromised you should pull the network cable and never plug it back in.
(trilema) mike_c: thx
(trilema) mike_c: that will do nicely
(trilema) mike_c: it's hard to have a "your bets" thing, because it's all on the blockchain. but i could let you mark arbitrary bets as yours and then track those.
(trilema) mike_c: ;;later tell punkman yes.. something in that area is needed.
(trilema) mike_c: did you ever spend any time in there?
(trilema) mike_c: i've thought of a couple different chat mechanisms. JD's chat box always seemed like a negative to me
(trilema) mike_c: i could drop in an iframe with freenode web chat :)
(trilema) mike_c: and i do handle it, not like the game blows up
(trilema) mike_c: srsly, the world will be invaded by aliens a billion times over before that happens
(trilema) mike_c: 2.07 x 10 ^ -27
(trilema) mike_c: indeed gribble
(trilema) mike_c: ;;calc 0.04633 ** 20
(trilema) mike_c: rehash on edge case
(trilema) mike_c: well, more like why even bother worry about it. the odds of that happenning are zero.
(trilema) mike_c: no
(trilema) mike_c: blame the miners
(trilema) mike_c: the blockchain is scamming, not me.
(trilema) mike_c: just for the record, sometimes the supervison sucks.
(trilema) mike_c: it can be helpful, but it is sharp.
(trilema) mike_c: i meant the bitcoin-assets stake currently being applied.
(trilema) mike_c: speaking of sitting on stakes, how you enjoying your stake BayAreaCoins? :)
(trilema) mike_c: "a human mine-able crypto currency" you know some people around here think BTC is human mineable.
(trilema) mike_c: still looking good for Monday? i'm getting an idiff itch.
(trilema) mike_c: ;;bc,stats
(trilema) mike_c: good luck, it's a crowded field. got a website up?
(trilema) mike_c: automated drop shipping of what? you got warehouses or connections to suppliers?
(trilema) mike_c: what are the nerdos working on?
(trilema) mike_c: wow
(trilema) mike_c: what's bigger?
(trilema) mike_c: and a gentleman
(trilema) mike_c: benkay: you can acces everything through python
(trilema) mike_c: BingoBoingo: lol. people like spielberg are the reason dinosaurs are EXTINCT now.
(trilema) mike_c: scammers be scammin'
(trilema) mike_c: yeah, here it is at 13:30 gmt: https://twitter.com/KingJames/status/487634726736646144
(trilema) mike_c: the bet is logged at 16:26 today, i assume that is GMT? Lebron tweeted a link to the sports illustrated article at 16:31, I assume it had been published more than 5 minutes earlier.
(trilema) mike_c: it was 2.9 : 1 before that last scammer bet. the underdog won again
(trilema) mike_c: i wonder what would have happenned if this was advertised on espn.com http://bitbet.us/bet/960/lebron-james-to-take-his-talents-elsewhere/
(trilema) mike_c: it has held up because the exchange rate has been so stable. the guy doesn't seem like a scammer, or even incompetent. it would be a good investment if bitcoin didn't exist.
(trilema) mike_c: how the hell am i supposed to make any money.
(trilema) mike_c: those odds actually seem pretty good
(trilema) mike_c: might also wash your dishes, not sure.
(trilema) mike_c: random aside: I am now a 0MQ fanboy thanks to kako. fast, versatile, easy to use in any language. solves all your pubsub, message queue, and lonely nights problems.
(trilema) mike_c: only 0.5 BTC for version 2 kit. i am tempted, but know i have no time to play with it.
(trilema) mike_c: asciilifeform: no wai. the facebook oculus rift is 3d!
(trilema) mike_c: i figure that is how simpleminded psychopaths have fun.
(trilema) mike_c: omg i remember that commercial
(trilema) mike_c: i need the paper with holes cut out in the right spots.
(trilema) mike_c: i tried reading letters down the edges, but nothing.
(trilema) mike_c: this trilema post needs a OTP to decode, yes?
(trilema) mike_c: uh, did you read the links he posted?
(trilema) mike_c: you do seem to get into it with benkay's staff. doesn't xmj work for him?
(trilema) mike_c: i peer review people that use too many footnotes.
(trilema) mike_c: if we wanted such a process, which afaik nobody does.
(trilema) mike_c: b-a peer review process: put an ID on each blog entry in blogs.b-a. if you have voice you can !rate a blog post. then bash-like page with best rated posts, etc.
(trilema) mike_c: will do.
(trilema) mike_c: oh. fine, make me look stupid. now it's logging.
(trilema) mike_c: but he is here now. and i don't see logs.
(trilema) mike_c: yes?
(trilema) mike_c: logs are busted?

(trilema) mike_c: ah, more fuel for BingoBoingo's summer heat theory.
(trilema) mike_c: once a year the mpex raid array goes on summer vacation.
(trilema) mike_c: interesting.
(trilema) mike_c: there are better ones?
(trilema) mike_c: i don't mind no macros, and i'm surprised you like them. macros are the death of readability.
(trilema) mike_c: that's a herp and a derp.
(trilema) mike_c: the real answer is worse: "A quick poll during my keynote presentation at PyCon 2007 shows this proposal has no popular support. I therefore reject it."
(trilema) mike_c: sort of end. they are still going to buy bonds with interest on their existing bonds.
(trilema) mike_c: ;;bcregister
(trilema) mike_c: isn't that what you're doing here?
(trilema) mike_c: still, very little.
(trilema) mike_c: er, * percentage they do own i mean
(trilema) mike_c: negligible
(trilema) mike_c: 1% * (percentage they don't own) - expenses.
(trilema) mike_c: BingoBoingo: you got a position?
(trilema) mike_c: thx. i don't know anything about emacs yet.
(trilema) mike_c: nah, i seeded with MPIF funds :D
(trilema) mike_c: looks like its breakeven so far!
(trilema) mike_c: if you do want a blog platform I'd be happy to post things for you on btcalpha with appropriate attribution.
(trilema) mike_c: thx
(trilema) mike_c: can anybody recommend an irc bouncer.
(trilema) mike_c: if you're not working 120 hours/week you're lazy.
(trilema) mike_c: not acting like a tough guy on twitter.
(trilema) mike_c: if my engineers were working 120 hours a week I would be saying "we're fucked. what happened? how did we plan so poorly?"
(trilema) mike_c: i'll tell you what to do. stfu, crawl in a corner, and die.
(trilema) mike_c: "i wouldn't know what to do with myself if I couldn't bench press 500 pounds"
(trilema) mike_c: nobody works 120 hours a week. that is retarded.
(trilema) mike_c: ThickAsThieves: agreed.
(trilema) mike_c: are you suggesting I show the current BTC block for games that haven't started yet? i can do that.
(trilema) mike_c: ^ Year 272 out of 1000
(trilema) mike_c: chetty: see the current game: https://btc.waroflife.com/gow/16/
(trilema) mike_c: just saw that.. it's caching based on game year. will fix now.
(trilema) mike_c: chetty: (starts 310,523)
(trilema) mike_c: i think i'm getting paywalled. can't see it
(trilema) mike_c: ThickAsThieves: it looks like it is working to me
(trilema) mike_c: 1 year seems to be the tipping point, so he's got two months to go.
(trilema) mike_c: at least he's still going.
(trilema) mike_c: kakobrekla, last man standing.. http://www.btcalpha.com/income/
(trilema) mike_c: heh. it can try.
(trilema) mike_c: i feel like we are back in a zone where BTC price is below its current value. i thought the auction might pop the inertia bubble on the price.
(trilema) mike_c: excellent
(trilema) mike_c: ThickAsThieves: there's a bug on therealaltcoin.org. the Casino link is pointing to satoshijack ;)
(trilema) mike_c: looks right
(trilema) mike_c: and that should do it
(trilema) mike_c: 2) "ns1.seeds.therealaltcoin.org A 54.197.241.190
(trilema) mike_c: need: 1) "seeds.therealaltcoin.org NS ns1.seeds.therealaltcoin.org"
(trilema) mike_c: ok. so here's what we did wrong.
(trilema) mike_c: yeah
(trilema) mike_c: let's try again :) let me get a picture.
(trilema) mike_c: well, my end is. i don't think we ever got the dns right
(trilema) mike_c: what did he cap it at?
(trilema) mike_c: there are fiverr people who specialize in shit like this. you could easily pay $5 for 5k retweets.
(trilema) mike_c: not arguing that. i certainly have some fliers in my portfolio. that's just not my particular cup of speculation.
(trilema) mike_c: GS pushes you one way, JPM another
(trilema) mike_c: yeah, but it's all hype-wagon. who knows which way the wind will blow.
(trilema) mike_c: feels like forum investing :)
(trilema) mike_c: i don't like playing with stock of companies that don't make money.
(trilema) mike_c: bagholding what though? btc or fiat?
(trilema) mike_c: or no news as the case may be.
(trilema) mike_c: pics or gtfo
(trilema) mike_c: 30k btc sells in a day and the market don't care.
(trilema) mike_c: i gotta say, i am surprised draper didn't have an effect.
(trilema) mike_c: hehe
(trilema) mike_c: TaT, wtf? i thought we were about to rally?
(trilema) mike_c: thx
(trilema) mike_c: asciilifeform: NJD?
(trilema) mike_c: TheNewDeal: probably cuz the last germany bet pulled in 13 BTC in like an hour.

(trilema) mike_c: <+mircea_popescu> ok, so you telling me that if hockey was offensive to every woman you knew << he still watches porn.
(trilema) mike_c: mircea_popescu: yes.. part of the "gawker media group". bingo is addicted. probably worse for his liver than drinking.
(trilema) mike_c: given that I have been more exposed to american odds than anything else, I don't think I am biased when I say decimal odds are by far the best method.
(trilema) mike_c: * 100, but he'll get it
(trilema) mike_c: who the hell can understand american odds
(trilema) mike_c: +141 and -213
(trilema) mike_c: hey, what about american odds?
(trilema) mike_c: ^ could be said about any gawker article
(trilema) mike_c: i think i'm paying $3.50, unfortunately out of my own pocket and not some VC
(trilema) mike_c: kako can turn off the logger
(trilema) mike_c: BingoBoingo: looks like somebody got into life real low.
(trilema) mike_c: kyuupichan: what was this mystery mpex conversation you had with daniel?
(trilema) mike_c: rota did not need to decide things for the good of rota. bitbet has a vested interest in making good decisions.
(trilema) mike_c: doesn't help to add a 10 page rider to every bet
(trilema) mike_c: what clarity is missing? when the bet will resolve? obviously it will resolve when the price is known. if it becomes clear the price will never be known, BB mods will do something appropriate.
(trilema) mike_c: (is he angry yet?)
(trilema) mike_c: bitstamp is awesome

(trilema) mike_c: convenience
(trilema) mike_c: and yet can be a convience in some situations. which is why i like having multiple options.
(trilema) mike_c: um, do you find it offensive if the form is just an option? alongside other contact info?
(trilema) mike_c: call it the tx fee in the UI, and don't actually pay tx fee (or reduced fee). difference goes to author.
(trilema) mike_c: jurov: your most is a very small sample size
(trilema) mike_c: benkay: it is a secret plot to give bingo all the ATC

(trilema) mike_c: china = fed? how so?
(trilema) mike_c: the fed isn't the sole buyer, they aren't entirely fake. there are others with vested interest in keeping us propped up.

(trilema) mike_c: hehe. well good bet whoever it was :)

(trilema) mike_c: there have been some good fights for the bombs, but death's have been more effective.

(trilema) mike_c: <+ThickAsThieves> yep, like GS unloading all their NFLX this week << no no, there's an invisible wall between the trading desk and the rating guys. they have NO IDEA what each other are doing. really, they promise!
(trilema) mike_c: i had to check. of course, it exists. babycoin: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=389832.0
(trilema) mike_c: hehe. sock puppets can have day jobs
(trilema) mike_c: i am just a lowly merchant wishing for something closer to actual stabilization. but that is unrealistic for a baby coin.
(trilema) mike_c: yeah, it's close to 0 now because (2 weeks slow) + (1 day really fast) = little change
(trilema) mike_c: pool hoppers might be back.
(trilema) mike_c: stabilization is a bit strong. it's been running slow the last couple weeks, and is now running quite fast.
