benkay: 1% on what, btc?
benkay: sounds greedy to me.
uhh: then PIF is probably a good choice for you
benkay: heck yea
benkay: ;;ud piff
gribble: http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=piff | superior to the average. Also a potent strain of weed/canibus of purple color.
ozbot: Urban Dictionary: piff
uhh: haha also not bad
benkay: on an entirely different topic
benkay: when will the scientific community release papers that display well on computer screens oriented normally?
uhh: what do you have in mind? 4 columns?
benkay: i have in mind hiring a designer
nubbins`: you know that's meant for print, right?
uhh: only because you are a printing guy doesn't give you the right to promote old school technology. who uses paper these days?
benkay: i was under the impression these humans were trying to communicate
uhh: .bait
benkay: mmm.
benkay: moar tattoos.
nubbins`: if they wanted you to not print it, they wouldn't have made it a pdf
benkay: what these academics (along with many others) want or even "think" is irrelevant
nubbins`: and yet here you are, forced to live with their decisions
nubbins`: funny, that
benkay: "forced"
benkay: funny, that
nubbins`: unless you have the option to read these papers in a format that's a good fit for your screen?
uhh: maybe we shouldn't pitchfork the printing guys and scientists, but adobe.
benkay: i have the option
benkay: don't much care to derp through it
nubbins`: what
nubbins`: 'd adobe do wrong?
nubbins`: (i know, that's a really open-ended question)
nubbins`: but pdf is great
uhh: i'd say they do have an influence on how pdfs are presented on a computer screen
nubbins`: i'd say the creator of the document specified the exact dimensions of the page
nubbins`: and, in fact, had complete control over the presentation of the content
nubbins`: because that's what pdf is for :(
benkay: we're definitely out of my domain here
mike_c: they created it like that out of habit, not out of a thought-out decision as to what would be best these days.
benkay: leastaways i haven't touched this derpy shit since high school
benkay: but we could start with absolute positioning of letters
nubbins`: there's no better way for me to guarantee that if i send you a document, it'll look exactly the same to you as it does to me
benkay: a thing about which i give zero shits
benkay: can i get that info into my brain in a more pleasantly formatted way?
benkay: it's this whole idea of ideas as opposed to aesthetics
benkay: you have this amusing hangup on aesthetics
nubbins`: you're fucked
benkay: now don't get me wrong, they're important
nubbins`: a pdf looks the same on every system
nubbins`: what else are you gonna send, a .doc?
benkay: at least that preserves the notion of a character stream
nubbins`: oh, whoops, you don't have the right fonts or they're drawn differently or your page margins are different, etc
nubbins`: you're missing the point
uhh: now i see why my last statement was kinda stupid
benkay: ("you're fucked" - erudite as always)
nubbins`: obstinate as always!
benkay: do illuminate me.
nubbins`: there are many, many occasions in this world where it's important that the recipient of the document be shown the exact thing that the sender intended
benkay: oh and don't get me wrong, aesthetics are important
nubbins`: it's not a question of aesthetics
benkay: it's how my firm makes our bread
nubbins`: it's a question of presenting information in a standard way
benkay: presenting images, i'd amend.
nubbins`: not exclusively
benkay: the information is clearly taking it up the tuchus in the .pdf "format"
nubbins`: the information is presented exactly how the creator of the pdf intended
nubbins`: if he intended to make a shit-looking document, well, too bad
benkay: the creator of that pdf didn't give two shits about any presentation beyond getting it printed and validated by the american idiot community of "scientists"
nubbins`: okay, so?
benkay: information clearly taking a backseat to arbitrary presentation guidelines written by an obsolete industry.
nubbins`: you're trying to generalize a specific case
benkay: my complaint was about a specific case
nubbins`: presentation guidelines, etc
benkay: where's my damn character stream.
benkay: embedded in some fucking layer in that monstrosity of a transmission?
benkay: i see why you left IT
benkay: you get neither information nor technology
nubbins`: creator of the doc obv didn't give a fuck how it looked on a computer screen
nubbins`: why would he?
nubbins`: it was probably being sent to a journal to be published
nubbins`: not posted on his blog
nubbins`: i doubt he gives a red fuck how it looks on a computer screen, and why should he?
nubbins`: all i see is wailing that something's not in your preferred form, like your chicken nuggets were cut up before mom put them on your plate and now you won't eat them
nubbins`: "where's my damn character stream"
benkay: it was perfectly acceptable chicken to begin with
benkay: why subject it to this ammonia
nubbins`: you're like an old man in a lineup
nubbins`: stomping and huffing
nubbins`: "why didn't this scientist realize i only read things on my computer!"
nubbins`: seriously though, keep it up. people will eventually come around
benkay: "why didn't this scientist realize i only read things on my computer! (sic)"
benkay: well because scientists generally care about behavior at the limit
benkay: a calculus thing
benkay: if i contribute to the demise of print in any way it'll have been a good day's work
nubbins`: if you contribute to anything in any way it'll have been a surprise to all
nubbins`: anyway, the document is in two skinny columns because skinny columns are easier to read.
nubbins`: that's why, y'know, newspapers and magazines and scientific journals use them
benkay: not objecting to columns
benkay: those make a modicum of sense
nubbins`: so literally just the fact that it's not a plain text doc?
benkay: nah
benkay: just getting a rise out of you
benkay: print
benkay: almost too easy
nubbins`: uh huh
benkay: night nubs

mircea_popescu: tom van dyke
mircea_popescu: (the basic guy)
mircea_popescu: that's what were you asking wasn't it ?
Ademan: ah, yeah indeed
Ademan: Well, the bitcointalk thread claims he's "Eric Corlew"
mircea_popescu: ;;later tell benkay well i can't explain why x thing isn't y thing. why do you think it is in the first place ?
gribble: The operation succeeded.
mircea_popescu: Ademan ya well, who's who in the bitcoin scamspace is always an iffy proposition.
mircea_popescu: this is why people invest on mpex rather than fucking themselves over on the play-pretend "alternatives".
Ademan: mircea_popescu: can you give me a full disclosure on that statement? ;-)
mircea_popescu: i run mpex.
Ademan: was joke, attempted joke anyways
mircea_popescu: sorry sir, we here at internet house are proud to say no joke.
mircea_popescu: no joke at all.
Ademan: haha
Ademan: from a purely marketing standpoint, have you ever considered throwing a stylesheet on there?
mircea_popescu: in the same way a four star michelin restaurateur has from a purely marketing standpoint considered throwing a drive-in in there.
mircea_popescu: mostly to go "hahahahahaha-hahahahaha"
Ademan: lol somehow I knew that was a dangerous question to ask
mircea_popescu: no but seriously, most interaction with mpex is programatical.
mircea_popescu: the last thing people want is more cruft.

mircea_popescu: asciilifeform: a decentralized SR would live still. etc <<< it couldn't possibly, in that it'd have been made by the guy that hired his cocaine buyers to kill his cocaine curiers.
mircea_popescu: ;;later tell benkay: so "authorized float" means "that as what we sold at ipo", or pre-ipo as described on cryptome << no, it means the total # of shares actually having been issued. this starts as that which was sold at ipo, increases every time someone executes a stock warrant and every time the company issues more shares.
gribble: The operation succeeded.
mircea_popescu: jurov: up to the 1e8 limit << actually mpex is on 64 bit systems, there's no 1e8 limit. iirc it's 1e42 or something
Ademan: mircea_popescu: 30 BTC is steep as hell, is there anything against pooling and/or "reselling" access?
mircea_popescu: nope. jurov runs a full service broker
mircea_popescu: with css.
mircea_popescu: other people do the same thing privately. which is how exchanges fucking work in the first place.

jurov: mircea_popescu iirc benkays' original question was "aint it stock dilution?"
jurov: i'd like to see some hard limit on that in the contract(even if 1e8 shares), too
jurov: ;;bc,stats

mircea_popescu: if at time t the stock is worth more than what it's trading for, people should buy it. if they can't buy it, it's not worth more.
mircea_popescu: if it's not worth more, issuing more at that price is not dilution.
jurov: i personally don't have big issue with it, we'll see how it will work out. It's much much better that S.DICE was, with evoorhees throwing stuff in randomly without any announce/approval needed
mircea_popescu: s.dice never issued more stock.
jurov: yes, but there were huge pools of shares not on the market and arriving all at once, which s.nsa is so far avoiding
jurov: and the contract even makes some stipulations about the price
mircea_popescu: that's really the empire of the holder. if asciilifeform decides to convert his warrants in a bulk and dump them on the market for instance it'd be similar a result
mircea_popescu: afair the major problem with s.dice was that at some point erik arbitrarily decided to reclassify an asset class in his accounting,
mircea_popescu: but that only lasted about two days and he backed off.
mircea_popescu: so it's only "major" in a theoretical sense, otherwise innocent mistake and all.

pankkake: I have been very successful at this :/
benkay: so when there are new shares how does the amount of equity i'm entitled to not decrease?
benkay: mircea_popescu:
mircea_popescu: because new shares are sold for at least as much as your current shares are worth
mircea_popescu: which means equity increases at least at the same rate as the float.
benkay: and that btc hits the book as an asset
benkay: roger
benkay: god i'm phenomenally dumb
mircea_popescu: well, the idea that dilution = more shares is somehow very intuitively easy.
mircea_popescu: it's not correct, but in order for this point to become important some progress has to be made.
mircea_popescu: as far as forum investing is concerned... that first approximation is great really.
benkay: it's a product of the SV "investment" model
benkay: new shares are issued, new cash hits books, value of existing shares remains stable, but then burn that cash on kegs and giant bags of refined hfcs
