decimation: I find the python3 vs python2 "war" amusing
decimation: several years ago the python "devs" decided to break the language "because it makes it better"
decimation: 5 years later no one has jumped
asciilifeform: decimation: the mere thinkability of this kind of thing, re: a given system, is a sure test for braindamage
decimation: reminds me of the quote from Lawrence of Arabia about hubris: Prince Feisal: There's nothing further here for a warrior. We drive bargains. Old men's work. Young men make wars, and the virtues of war are the virtues of young men. Courage and hope for the future. Then old men make the peace. And the vices of peace are the vices of old men. Mistrust and caution. It must be so.

decimation: What amazes me is the charmed path that Linux itself has taken
decimation: Linus would be nobility in another century
asciilifeform: linux sorta takes us almost to the point we were in 1972.
asciilifeform: except when you stop and think about the fact that virtually every 'linux box' is also running a number of embedded turds
asciilifeform: (disk, i/o, display controllers, etc)
decimation: everyone's too busy to worry about that ascii
asciilifeform: and then you envy the folks with the 'pdp'
asciilifeform: it isn't even, as people like to think, a 'security' itch
asciilifeform: it's about the fundamental impossibility of fully understanding wtf is actually taking place inside the box
mircea_popescu: ThickAsThieves phyrnius
decimation: Well, part of the reason is that it has become absurdly expensive to fab a chip
decimation: and the "business model" of "we own the IP" is all any company in the US has left
mircea_popescu: decimation> 5 years later no one has jumped << wait, the core devs of python, nobody gave a shit about them ?!
asciilifeform: i actually see a future for machines built of discrete (yes, 74xxx & friends) logic.
asciilifeform: perhaps the only future.
asciilifeform: 'but they say i'm mad'
decimation: yeah mircea, I think you can find a parallel in bitcoin :)
asciilifeform: perhaps after 'mad max', when a computer is no longer a cheap widget - but a _place_ - like the old church organs - people will give a fuck whether they work correctly
decimation: if Guido Van Rossum can be ignored by everyone, how much easier would it be to ignore the bitcoin devs?
asciilifeform: and whether the machine can be understood
mircea_popescu: decimation i'm just glad im not the only one aware of the damned thing.
asciilifeform: (because if it cannot be understood, it cannot be maintained)
decimation: there is wisdom in this
asciilifeform: imagine if 'la serenissima', old venice, had... a computer. what part of what we put up with, would they tolerate.
mircea_popescu: decimation btw, wasn't von rossum working with rice now ?
ThickAsThieves: mp it shows servers by country first
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform they were actually sort-of trying to get the mechanical calculator going
mircea_popescu: more like a watchmaking angle tho

decimation: as if it were controversial that some gov't bigwig were cashing out in industry
mircea_popescu: anyway, tis all for me. later.
princessnell: the dropbox ceo stood his ground i think
decimation: apparently you are only allowed to be on the board of a business if you are sufficiently socialist
princessnell: it was a university that disinvited her to speak
decimation: ah well that explains things then
princessnell: why must they drag down yet another strong woman of color?
decimation: because bush I guess
mircea_popescu: princessnell ah come on, woman is dumb as rocks.

ThickAsThieves: technically ditching the AM-PTs is what i did
ThickAsThieves: leaving the board was automatic once i no longer represented 5000 shares
skinnkavaj: But why? Didn't they make a you some money with 5% management fee?
ThickAsThieves: go add up those fees over the lifetime

skinnkavaj: mircea_popescu: Read your link, ok so they made some mistakes with exchanges.. But I couldn't care less about that, what matters is that friedcat seems to be a really good asic engineer
mircea_popescu: skinnkavaj on the strength of that answer i humbly submit that perhaps you did not actually read the link.
ThickAsThieves: here's how i see it
ThickAsThieves: (this is no investment advice)
ThickAsThieves: FC and the crew made millions on millions last year
mircea_popescu: notwithstanding that afaik friedcat was in no sense an engineer, just a pr for a team, and also afaik she said so mul;tiple times.
ThickAsThieves: then had to deal with pissant forum investors
ThickAsThieves: which got old
ThickAsThieves: so they probably began segmenting their business out of that situation
ThickAsThieves: which menifested in things like
ThickAsThieves: Rockminer
mircea_popescu: ThickAsThieves: it could be pending i guess << wait, pending for two years ? heh.
ThickAsThieves: no communciation
ThickAsThieves: pending for 1 year is normal i'm told
mircea_popescu: ahahaha MENIfested.rosenFELT
mircea_popescu: ThickAsThieves but we're approaching three.
mircea_popescu: that is not normal.

mircea_popescu: moving your virtual office from us to uk to avoid the impending doom is also not NORMAL
skinnkavaj: ThickAsThieves: According to latest questions it seems that they are on track on delivering 102 petahash to the network in 3 months

skinnkavaj: Why do you not think the could manage to produce a 3gen chip
skinnkavaj: They clearly have the competence
mircea_popescu: yes well, the point being that we sometimes get what we want, and sometimes don't get what we want.
mircea_popescu: and you're mostly in the 2nd class.
skinnkavaj: Its just a matter of time
ThickAsThieves: it's not that i dont think they "might" make gen3 or whatever
mircea_popescu: fluffypony you didn't just draw that up
fluffypony: mircea_popescu: I did

mircea_popescu: do you even job fluffypony ?
ozbot: gentleman | Meme Generator
fluffypony: it's a saturday
skinnkavaj: ThickAsThieves: Why couldn't it be successfull?
skinnkavaj: ThickAsThieves: Why couldn't it be worth it?
skinnkavaj: If they once again produce the best chips on the market
skinnkavaj: It will be worth it
ThickAsThieves: isnt this batch already barely on par with the market?
skinnkavaj: If they successfully manage to keep their promises now
ThickAsThieves: do you realize how long it's been since AM actually released something new?
skinnkavaj: Delivering 102 petahash over the next 3 months
mircea_popescu: more's the point, if they doi produce the best batch on the market again, why would they want to split the proceeds with you ?
skinnkavaj: I think they have a good chance of 20% of the network
mircea_popescu: what could you possibly offer them that'd make them care.
ThickAsThieves: they wont split proceeds
ThickAsThieves: thats why Rockminer exists
ThickAsThieves: and why Gen2 probly existed
mircea_popescu: so is this a purely academic discussion then ?
fluffypony: so they operate ASICMINER as a zero-sum game
ThickAsThieves: all the board cares about is their own franchises, which are all going into the red right about now
fluffypony: barely profitable, if at all
fluffypony: and Rockminer makes the money
skinnkavaj: ThickAsThieves: "all the board cares about is their own franchises" Like what franchises?
ThickAsThieves: so you are crossing your fingers that some mystery men in china give a fuck about shareholders
skinnkavaj: ThickAsThieves: They did before?
ThickAsThieves: they measured how much fuck they should give with the Rockminer IPO
mircea_popescu: https://pbs.twimg.com/media/BnRTjF8CYAAxpnM.jpg asciilifeform check out that truck! best looking truck i've seen.
skinnkavaj: Why would you assume friedcat is dishonest now?
skinnkavaj: Suddenly
skinnkavaj: ThickAsThieves: Do you think Rockminer is a better investment if so?
ThickAsThieves: well dishonesty is a different demon in china
ThickAsThieves: you measure it differently
ThickAsThieves: and whats so sudden
ThickAsThieves: AM hasnt made new shit for like a year
mircea_popescu: i am coming to this theory that there are two types of people in the world : the ones whose brain is a train engine, and the ones whose brain is a combustion engine. the former can be readily ideintified by the fact that their mental processes move on tracks, no matter the engine's horsepower.
mircea_popescu: the latter can probably be identified by how they keep crashing into poles.
ThickAsThieves: their farm maxed at like 25TH or some shit
skinnkavaj: They told that Rockminer would have to buy chips from Asicminer at the same price as everyone else
skinnkavaj: So far I fail to see why Asicminer suddenly has become corrupt/dishonest
mircea_popescu: so there's still hope for my vlog then
ThickAsThieves: skinnkavaj
ThickAsThieves: pretend Rockminer IS Asicminer
ThickAsThieves: and ask how Asicminer might profit
mircea_popescu: "Leading toilet maker Toto refers to itself as the Apple of toilet tech." mwahaha
skinnkavaj: They sell chips?
ThickAsThieves: pretend you arent pretending
skinnkavaj: They could have split up
skinnkavaj: Asicminer produces only chips
skinnkavaj: Rockminer produces something else

skinnkavaj: Yes trolling and downing people is really boring
mircea_popescu: in small enough qty, filth is actually helpful for the healthy body
fluffypony: lol ThickAsThieves
skinnkavaj: Would really like to have more dicussions
skinnkavaj: About the companies
skinnkavaj: Thats why I am in this channel
fluffypony: skinnkavaj: discussion is fine
fluffypony: asking someone for their opinion on a specific issue is fine
fluffypony: but yes/no investment advice is nonsensical
mircea_popescu: ThickAsThieves what's the 8ball say about when will the last noob try badgering you about nonsense ?
mircea_popescu: skinnkavaj no, because you eschew the actual discussion in favour of ridoinkulous formalisms.
skinnkavaj: ThickAsThieves: Do you have more information from ASicminer board meetings or are you not allowed of copy pasting that?
ThickAsThieves: skinnkavaj, if you just lurk here for a few mos, you'll be miles ahead of the forum

ThickAsThieves: this channel was so much better before you got here mp
mircea_popescu: fluffypony the problem is fucking deeper than that. see, the brain is not made to work, it's made to adapt.
mircea_popescu: these are very different, even if cyberneticists keep wanting to represent the brain as a computor.
mircea_popescu: these days most of the brains input for the lower classes is fiction, ie, entertainment.
mircea_popescu: in fiction, there's a scenario and a director, and they conspire to alter reality a certain way.
mircea_popescu: this "happiness horizon" when "everything would just fall into place in every aspect of my lyf" is a very old very common fiction trope
mircea_popescu: it happens to heroines mostly, once they take the cock, usually.
mircea_popescu: so... the lower class brain is now... adapted to this counterfactual reality.
mircea_popescu: 50%+1 of the population would do fine in "life", if only life was... the story of rapunzel.

fluffypony: or something

pankkake: and yet I've only commented on a few of his offerings, only to provide a link to a scam accusation or something
fluffypony: the thread he links to is hilarious
fluffypony: where they try dox you
davout: pankkake: "Given the various legal requirements, the new model will be equipped with a fingerprint scanner and a security camera." <<< wonder what legal requirements they're referring to
khersonus: it's normally AML/KYC stuff that causes problems for bitcoin<->cash machines
jurov: <peterl> jurov: how do coinbr refferals get paid? << it is added monthly, usually just after the monthly fee
davout: khersonus: my point is that the legal requirements are imaginary since bitcoin is nowhere legally defined as money
jurov: and shown in the btc account history
davout: in other words a bitcoin ATM is by no means different than any other vending machine
fluffypony: davout
davout: s/by no means/in no way/
fluffypony: if it pays out in fiat the legal definition of Bitcoin is irrelevant, no?
fluffypony: the compliance is wrt the fiat being padi
fluffypony: *paid
davout: fluffypony: nah, that's when you store fiat on behalf of third parties
fluffypony: AML would apply if you're providing a fiat dispensing machine
fluffypony: it's rife for money laundering
fluffypony: KYC not so much unless you're deposit-taking
davout: when you buy and sell X, you buy and sell X, as long as X is not defined as a financial instrument, (or a precious metal in some countries) there is no reason for KYC/AML to apply
kakobrekla: btc atm could be considered as otc trading no?
davout: the fact that "it's ripe for ML" is in no way relevant, the machine is not "dispensing cash", it could be automatically buying apples from you
fluffypony: outside of the US, sure
fluffypony: but in the nanny state there's a whole bunch of FinCEN crap around this (eg. http://www.fincen.gov/statutes_regs/guidance/html/faq060305.html)
davout: AML provisions *may* apply for some specific cases, such as scrap metal buying/selling in france for example
davout: but that's usually very clearly laid out in the law
khersonus: davout: you should setup a "Bitcoin ATM" and see what happens
fluffypony: that insist on AML being applied if you're providing a cash dispensing business, with specific exemptions for things like registered pawnbrokers
fluffypony: in the US they apply the "everything is bad, here are some exceptions" policy
kakobrekla: imo i dont hink btc atm will catch on on the long run
davout: khersonus: no i should absolutely not, because as far as I know european VAT applies on the full amount of sales unless stated otherwise
khersonus: davout: oh gosh
fluffypony: kakobrekla: I agree
fluffypony: personally I think it's just a silly way of trying to promote adoption, it's more inconvenient to use than convenient
davout: fluffypony: is bitcoin defined in the "precious Metals, Stones, or Jewels" category? i believe not
fluffypony: davout: that's why I said "eg"
fluffypony: it's an example of fincen crap
davout: fluffypony: bear in mind that i'm not really competent when it comes to regulation in the US, my field of expertise is regulation in europe
fluffypony neither
fluffypony: either way, most of the Bitcoin ATM reviews I've read have been US-centric
davout: fluffypony: the US has the advantage of not having VAT, that's why coinbase can work the way it does, and that bitcoin ATMs are actually safer to setup there than in europe
fluffypony: I don't know if the Bitcoin ATMs being dropped into Dubai will have lal this AML crap
davout: god help them

khersonus: davout: from bitcoin-central TOS "The PLATFORM allows the CUSTOMER to submit TRADE ORDERS for the purchase or sale of Bitcoins" << probably a stupid question, but how does VAT not apply to that?
davout: khersonus: it's not a stupid question
davout: we're simply not counterparty to trades
Apocalyptic: khersonus, it does apply I think
Apocalyptic: on the fees
davout: basically the way it works is that you have an account in BTC
assbot: [HAVELOCK] [SCRYPT] 14 @ 0.041 = 0.574 BTC [-]
davout: a EUR account in your name with our financial partner
davout: you're mandating us, and pay us to simply shuffle money around these accounts
Apocalyptic: they are just providing the service, in exchange for the fee, so the VAT is levied on that
khersonus: davout: so if I sell/buy on bitcoin-central, should someone on one side of the trade technically pay vat?
davout: it's your money deposited in EUR, in your name, and you give us a mandate to move it around, the mandate is the trick
davout: VAT applies on our fee, so on 0.59% charged there's a part that goes in the pocket of the motherland
khersonus: I see
davout: "should someone on one side of the trade technically pay vat?" <<< you're the first one to actually make this very good comment
davout: the answer is "technically, probably yes, but that's not bitcoin-central's problem"
jurov: yes i'm supposed to pay VAT once my company oversteps 49k EUR/365 days
khersonus: davout: interesting, thanks
kakobrekla: usually its up to end user to handle that shit with local authorities

Apocalyptic: "za poslednych 12 mesiacov"
davout: khersonus: like jurov points out, in some specific corporation setups there are thresholds for applicability
jurov: i can avoid it only by supplying an evidence that whatever landed on company account were payments for services delivered to outside EU
davout: we have the same kind of thing in france with the "auto-entrepreneur" setup, the way it works though, is that if you go over the threshold you lose the AE status and are required to create a different type of corp. which in practice results in the same thing as jurov

fluffypony: if the pedophile resigns
khersonus: davout: so for your X.EUR future on mpex, if someone wanted EUR though b-c, should bitcoin-central be paying VAT on that? (because as far as I can tell, there's no fee, so the tax wouldn't come from the fee)
pankkake: as if this guy was the real issue. and what about that booby lee fucker?
HeySteve: at least bobby lee isn't another american

mircea_popescu: davout: it's a non issue for non-corporate customers, but it might technically be one for corporate ones << im not so sure about that. afaik, most jurisdictions require the provider to collect vat for the customer.
mircea_popescu: which is why when you buy a pencil in a shop, the vat shows up on your bill. even if you should have paid it, the shop is not legally allowed to just sell you the pencil
mircea_popescu: they have to also act the tax man, and collect and pay ~for you~ the vat ~you owe~ for the government's convenience.
assbot: [MPEX] [S.MPOE] 3603 @ 0.00088079 = 3.1735 BTC [-]

mircea_popescu: HeySteve: re: bitcoin foundation again, members are resigning: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=603590.0 << lmao you know the BF's desperate for attention when they're actually begging for people disgusted by them to actually leave comments on their otherwise dead forum
mircea_popescu: "please guys, spit on us, urinate, anything anything as long as we're involved in any way!"
mircea_popescu: davout i mean as a corporation selling to natural persons, you may or may not end up in hot water with whatever local tax authority if you don't give them a vat.
mircea_popescu: because, logically, they will wish to be paid, and will lean on whatever is available.
davout: mircea_popescu: didn't really think about it this way, if the corp. selling coins on BC gets audited they'd be the one getting in trouble, i hear your point though
mircea_popescu: especially seeing how france works with regards to tax and its budget,
mircea_popescu: i wouldn't count on them not doing something such as changing the tax code mid exercise and then insisting you comply.
davout: mircea_popescu: but one thing to keep in mind is that contrary to all the other exchanges, we never actually touch the fiat being moved aroud, me merely trigger a transfer between accounts that do not belong to us legally
mircea_popescu: such stuff has been seen in romania, poland, the czech republic and if memory serves the uk
davout: mircea_popescu: retroactive tax law changes are something that has happened in france as well AFAIK
mircea_popescu: so a bit of a dubious terrain, is all i'm saying.
mircea_popescu: this, of course, in stark contrast with the 100% non illegal certs better people are getting.
davout: our defense here is simply "we never touch the money", we're simply mandated to trigger the move between accounts :D
mircea_popescu: yes yes i get that, there isn't a third reich because you live in the poznan forest, rather than on the warta field
davout: at least, if that ever happens and we get fined into nothingness, the customer funds are safe because they don't sit on our corp. accts
davout: phew
Apocalyptic: <davout> mircea_popescu: retroactive tax law changes are something that has happened in france as well AFAIK // oh yeah it did
Apocalyptic: like the PEA taxation recently
mircea_popescu: davout im not even sure how it works there, but if memory serves you can't even bankruptcy if you've been fined
mircea_popescu: ThickAsThieves so are you concerned that by going to amsterdam you may end up on teh interpol pedo watch list ?
davout: mircea_popescu: never heard about that, the taxman is a privileged creditor for sure, but how would that work?
Apocalyptic: heh mircea
assbot: [MPEX] [S.MPOE] 2295 @ 0.00087876 = 2.0168 BTC [-]
mircea_popescu: davout well, you file for chapter 11 or w/e equivalent, the da intervenes and objects
mircea_popescu: civil suit (ie, the bankruptcy) is suspended during penal proceedings
davout: ya, guess you mean it becomes personal liability at that point
mircea_popescu: there's no strict limit on how long they may take, so it can be 25 years.
mircea_popescu: davout no, he doesn't have to actually prosecute it.
davout: but, penal against whom ?
mircea_popescu: doesn't matter.
mircea_popescu: suppose there's company x. it owes 110 euros and has assets of 100 euros. right ?
davout: penal as in surprise penis in butt
davout: right
mircea_popescu: at this point general manager or w/e party the executive power is vested in is legally required to file for bankruptcy or supervised reorganisation/reconstitution/we
davout: okay
mircea_popescu: this is a civil suit. the judge receives an objection from the state's tax attorney, stating that they consider they're owed five eurocents in fines.
mircea_popescu: and - importantly - that they intend to prosecute the matter.
mircea_popescu: the judge sets the file aside.
mircea_popescu: end of story.
davout: to me it works in the following way
davout: assets 100, liability 110
davout: taxman takes whatever is owed to them, other creditors take the rest
mircea_popescu: not how this works
davout: i'm not finished
mircea_popescu: IF the taxman claims they intend to prosecute the matter.
jurov: taxman must do an audit first
mircea_popescu: but you never get that far. i know how it goes on your branch, but youy never get to tyhat branch
jurov: and ask you whatever they want... that can take time
davout: someone may object (taxman or whoever else) may object that the bankruptcy was fraudulent and that there was deliberate actions made to diminish the assets, in this case the general manager can get prosecuted personnally
davout: heard about this a few times already
mircea_popescu: the taxman;'s objection is priviledged
davout: yea, i know
mircea_popescu: it's not of the same nature as everyone else's (those are resolved part of the civil suit)
davout: people actually get barred from managing corporations
mircea_popescu: the situation you find yourself in, practically, is that the 100 euro assets are now locked up, and deteriorating, under court "supervision"
mircea_popescu: and you can't touch them. and everyone waits.
mircea_popescu: since it's a small corp, nobody cares, and it can wait forever.
mircea_popescu: that's the particular fissure of a kafkaesque nature i wish to draw your attention to.
davout: in france, there's usually a "suit" if the bankruptcy is fraudulent, a liquidation process goes in front of a judge as well tho, but it's not really a lawsuit
mircea_popescu: but that's what im saying. it doesn't have to get that far.
davout: in france, as far as i know, if a company is not solvent, there *must* be a liquidator appointed
mircea_popescu: davout sure.
davout: i may be dead wrong here, never had a company liquidated :D
mircea_popescu: no, you're right. hes appointed. he takes a hoinorary.
mircea_popescu: and waits for the da to finish its investigation.
davout: pankkake: fucking classical
mircea_popescu: till 2028 or w/e
davout: afaik the fact that a liquidator is appointed doesn't mean there's an investigation
mircea_popescu: dude you're refusing to see what im saying. again from the top.
davout: the way i understand it, is that there's two cases, either the bankruptcy is considered "normal", or "fraudulent", in the former it's liquidator, in the latter it's liquidator + investigation
mircea_popescu: company is insolvent. management has to report this. management does.
mircea_popescu: court takes note. court starts insolvency proceedings.
mircea_popescu: taxman takes note. taxman notifies court.
mircea_popescu: court sets all proceedings aside pending result of taxman investigation.
mircea_popescu: investigation takes forever.
mircea_popescu: insolvency is never resolved.
davout: aah, i guess the part i missed was that it was a taxman led investigation
mircea_popescu: so now you can sit and look at your 100 euros turning into dust in a warehouse somewhere.
davout: i'll have a look at that
jurov: well, i fail to find anything such in slovak law practice
mircea_popescu: now, if it's a big company, it can perhaps push for this to resolve.
jurov: in fact, the opposite thing happened
mircea_popescu: but considering the state of the dockets, all over the "civilised" world, a < billion corp stands zero chance to be even noticed.
davout: but from what you say, the taxman, if he has a claim against the company has an actual incentive to speed things up, assuming he's paying himself *after* his investigation, which would make sense in a somewhat sane system
jurov: taxmen delayed VAT returns fdue to "ongoing investigation"
jurov: so some companies bankrupted
mircea_popescu: davout he has a perverse incentive : he knows that you're a sucker, and would rather pay him than wait.
mircea_popescu: so he waits so you pay.
jurov: regardless of tax investigation
mircea_popescu: jurov that's vat returns stuff, an entirely different piece of related nonsense.
davout: mircea_popescu: how can i pay him if my assets are frozen during the investigation?
mircea_popescu: davout take your wife to amsterdam ?
jurov: but it was the same kind of investigation
davout: i don't see how it would make sense to drop a tax-related investigation on frozen corporate assets by having a shareholder, or general manager, paying money out of his pocket
mircea_popescu: one of the many many COUNTLESS reasons a businessman absolutely must have a well read blog at his disposal.
mircea_popescu: once that sort of shit starts, you start publishing the lolz.
mircea_popescu: davout because if w/e they calculated is owed is paid, then they have no further grounds to investigate.
mircea_popescu: pankkake: "Chinese-American, he was born in Africa; his entrepreneurial parents ran a flip-flop factory in the Ivory Coast" << for some reason that immediately sent me to http://trilema.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/nigerian-scammers.jpg
davout: so what were they investigating about in the first place if it wasn't "calculate exactly how we're being owed" ???
mircea_popescu: davout right.
mircea_popescu: you are starting to understand bureaucracy, the legal system and how states work.
davout: if they weren't investigating about that, they were investigating about fraud, and you don't get out such an investigation by simply throwing money at them
mircea_popescu: davout it's simpler than that : they don't have to be specific before they finish the investigation
pankkake: French fisc agents are allowed to offer "deals" btw
mircea_popescu: this is a game-theoretic asset : they won't say. maybe they are. maybe they aren't. what do you want ?
davout: so you just pay them some random amount ?
mircea_popescu: no, you pay them what they ask you. then they make the paperwork read that's what you were supposed to pay.
davout: i *never* heard about such a thing
mircea_popescu: yes, but you never spent a million on consel in any fiscal year either.
davout: true, have you ?
mircea_popescu: yes, actually.
mircea_popescu: pankkake: I'd rather fuck the Bush daughters << but those were sluts
pankkake: what's wrong with sluts?
mircea_popescu: i don't have to get skinnkavaj to ask his magical "i can't see why not" device to bed those
mircea_popescu: principle of magical economy : only use the really powerful delusionist spells when really needed.
davout: mircea_popescu: are you implying that a million needs to be spent in legal counsel to have something like that explained ?
mircea_popescu: davout the implication is that particular malfunctions of a broken system are only visible at a certain height, nothing else
mircea_popescu: i just explained it to you for free, after all.
davout: that was the implied question :-)
mircea_popescu: your objection that it doesn't fit with your experience, unsound as it may be in theory, is also easily dispatched in practice.
davout: i don't object reasoning on the basis that it doesn't fit my experience
mircea_popescu: <davout> i *never* heard about such a thing << what's that then ?
davout: not an objection, simply the expression that it didn't fit my experience :)
mircea_popescu: i am sure, if you go to the chamber of commerce or w/e people gather in paris these days and ask, you will find at least one or two people caught in something of the sort.
davout: what i'm saying is that it is not comprised in the set of the things i know about how the law works
davout: look, the french tax code has this concept of "abus de droit"
davout: from there, anything becomes possible
mircea_popescu: well yeah but we're here to expand it :D
mircea_popescu: and yes lol.
mircea_popescu: "you have a right, provided you don't use it in a way we didn't foresee or don't like"
mircea_popescu: ancient german law nonsense.
davout: for those who don't speak french, "abus de droit" means that you're "overusing" the law to your advantage, and that, in itself is unlawful
davout: my dad's an accountant, when he told me about this thing, i was like "no fucking way"

mircea_popescu: dotcoin you mean about the vat again or just in general ?
davout: Apocalyptic: my daughter pretends the cushions are castle walls
dotcoin: jurov does amf also view coinbr?
benkay: dotcoin: is there a way to see what paper is trading on bourse without signing up?
dotcoin: yes of course
mircea_popescu: davout little does she know that the snow is the actual castle walls.
davout: dotcoin: maybe, tell them to ask me if they need a referral code
jurov: dotcoin, they are welcome to view it
benkay: dotcoin: where can i see that list?

pankkake: darov is just the child of jurov and davout
benkay: o.O
jurov: dotcoin and what about publishing order book and volume?
mircea_popescu: pankkake that'd be juout
dotcoin: i guess pankkake is the child from them
dotcoin: login to see order book
Apocalyptic: why not make it available for everyone
mircea_popescu: dotcoin do you at least show diff order books to each login, icbit style ?
mircea_popescu: or php === not advanced yet ?
jurov: and volume is not available even on login...
Apocalyptic: the "at least" is somehow not shocking
mircea_popescu: Apocalyptic it'd be entertaining lol
dotcoin: but what you critic this time jurov? the order book? last time was the dividends, next time is what ? should i go to your site and start searching
jurov: oh and did i mention that you can issue standing orders for fixed expiration of 3 days or market orders and nothing else?
kakobrekla: LAST TIME IT WAS THE DIVIDENDS
BingoBoingo: has dotcoin orderbooks that ========= something legit each inlog

mircea_popescu: <dotcoin> but what you critic this time jurov? the order book? last time was the dividends, next time is what ? should i go to your site and start searching << this approach is fundamentally broken. even should you prove everyone else is stupid, that'll still not make you smart.
dotcoin: @mircea i want to be smart for you nor i search friends here
ozbot: Threats to extort and blackmail BCT companies by the user 'pankkake'
mircea_popescu: look at that, 1k atc volume. amusingly, it's displaying the bitcoin hoarding behaviours too!
Duffer1: how did it go with the internet police dotcoin?
mircea_popescu: dotcoin that's also fundamentally broken. if you have friends here, you'll be ok. if you do not, you will fail, even should the entire world come to try and rescue you.
mircea_popescu: as karpeles found out through bitter experience, as vessenes will, etc.
BingoBoingo: need dotcoin friends no
asciilifeform: world tried to rescue karp?
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo kickass lol.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform yes.

jurov: http://live.coinbr.com/images/bbsbook-fs8.png dotcoin, so let's talk about order book. you (and everyone) don't see anything untoward here?
mircea_popescu: jurov basically, he's hacked a time auction package, sort-of adapted it for "bitcoin stock exchange" ?
jurov: looks like that.
dotcoin: hm you needs now what jurov a order book?
dotcoin: and after
jurov: no you need one

mircea_popescu: kakobrekla yes but im not gonna down him because i do not wish to be the evil tyrant
davout: kakobrekla: no, fuck that, the laugh is worth it
dotcoin: lol
kakobrekla: fine have him but i pay for logs server.
kakobrekla: running low on packets.
dotcoin: the script kiddies here even have no plan to shut down a wordpress site
jurov: kakobrekla: you can offset it by offering assbot ad slots
davout: jurov kakobrekla that'd be a complementary business model for this guy -> https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=603670.msg6658822
dotcoin: but ok i see there is no serious discussion here everyone accuse other of scam thats all
jurov: dotcoin because you evade the questions
davout: dotcoin: what about bitcoin-central and the french association ?
jurov: i am asking, how can you consider the order book usable?
jurov: for example you can't easily find lowest offer
mircea_popescu: <dotcoin> but ok i see there is no serious discussion here << i lolled.
dotcoin: you not can find lowest offer?
jurov: it's confusing whether it's about bid/ask side
mircea_popescu: i not can find word order in soup!
davout: dotcoin: also your buy and sell are backwards
davout: Buy: 338.00 € Sell: 301.00 €

davout: mircea_popescu: whaddaya mean
mircea_popescu: jurov definitely, i tell you. he's taken a software package intended for a penny auction site and hacked it together. it's so fucking obvious. that pseudo "book" could no other way be explained.
mircea_popescu: davout backwards.
davout: in the butt?
jurov: dotcoin, also, how you set a order expiration of 100 days for yourself? why no one other can set it?
mircea_popescu: buttwards
davout: we do it backwards but it looks forward, think moonwalk
dotcoin: order expirations of 100 days are for merchants only, if you want list shares you can do and your orders will be run as long you want
jurov: "shares merchant"?
dotcoin: yes
jurov: that kind fits
jurov: :D
dotcoin: there are no bitcoin orders longer than 3 days
mircea_popescu: why not ?
mircea_popescu: what if im going on vacation ? what if i just met a highschooler with nice tits ?
mircea_popescu: either usually takes me > 3 days
davout: mircea_popescu: because he uses an evaluation copy mebbe
dotcoin: i guess it makes no sense, when bitcoin price jumps up and down
mircea_popescu: why not 2 days then.
dotcoin: you sell bitcoins and go vacation?
kakobrekla: i think 10 min is more appropriate.
dotcoin: you can cancel your order when you need
mircea_popescu: am i fucking confused ? is this bourse thing a bitcoin exchange or a bitcoin stock exchange ?
jurov: no. it's bitcoin stock merchant
davout: mircea_popescu: stock exchange + P2P bitcoin exchange, amirite dotcoin?
mircea_popescu: so then wtf has the price of bitcoin to do with anything
dotcoin: it was started as bitcoin exchange, now we focus to going full to bitcoin stock exchange, as we not want competition with the big ones like bc
mircea_popescu: bc became big at some point ?!
davout: haha, i knew it was coming
dotcoin: in what point
bounce: relative, I'm sure
mircea_popescu: pankkake seriously, you feel like articulating wtf you hate about altcoins quite so viscerally ?
davout: dotcoin: don't you also have a P2P exchange, sort of like localbitcoins?
dotcoin: maybe but this is not my problem i am not jealous of other people
mircea_popescu: im sure nobody'll be like, "o, we no like pankkake anymoar now", even if they think your idea is dumb
jurov: davout yes it's everything on bitcoinbourse, both btceur and stocks
pankkake: yes, I started a blog article. and it should start with "I don't hate altcoins, "hate" is a word used by faggots, I just think they are a fraud"
davout: pankkake: wai u hate faggots?
dotcoin: yes read @davout, told here we have p2p like localbitcoins but now we focus on stock exchange, so the french market is free for you enjoy we don't need that
kakobrekla: i think the just hates hate
pankkake: davout: yeah they make noises with their bikes
jurov: oh and bitcoincard is there too, never dared to try that
mircea_popescu: pankkake kay, i'll read it. ping here when done
dotcoin: bitcoincard yes
dotcoin: you can try

davout: mircea_popescu: i was actually thinking about the alternative of not getting mad, in either case
davout: but i can perfectly understand that if you perceive the person you are arguing with as intelligent, it makes the arguing exercise different
pankkake: well. if you argue in public with someone dumb, your objective should be completely different
pankkake: you're not necessarily trying to convince him
davout: the sanest attitude in such a case is double: make other readers hear your point, have some fun
pankkake: yeah
davout: if some fucktards end up calling you a troll you can count it as a success
davout: to get back to the dotcoin case, it's slightly weird, because he doesn't display the usual bitcointalk scammer attributes
mircea_popescu: i always cunt it as a success
davout: lel
mircea_popescu: davout maybe his mastery of the english language doesn't permit him to ?
davout: mircea_popescu: no i was thinking more about the fact that he's not anonymous
mircea_popescu: intentionally ?
davout: no, i sense no intention of hiding his identity
mircea_popescu: and for that matter, neither is dr foreskin anonymous
mircea_popescu: he's just well known to be a fucktard irl too, so what's he got to lose.

jurov: dotcoin you ever use any stock exchange? every one of them publishes what trades were done

jurov: dotcoin "public has no right to any information" is a scammer attitude

davout: dotcoin: you need to show offers to buy and sell, publicly, not who is posting these orders
Apocalyptic: in a nice table
davout: dotcoin: https://bitcoin-central.net/page/stats/orders <<< this is an order book
dotcoin: there are offers to buy and sell, of course, the only one not is there are not showing sold shares thats correct
davout: dotcoin: http://mpex.co/?mpsic=S.MPOE <<< on the rigth side of this page is also an order book
dotcoin: yes guys think like taht is under development
BigBitz: "under development"
BigBitz: how do you close books/trades/orders if you don't know who buys/sells what?

BigBitz: You don't think not publishing trade information on a trading platform is a positive?
davout: dotcoin: this does classifies you as completely unqualified to run a stock exchange, that's all
dotcoin: thats not correct as i tell you already there is all to see
bounce: it's on. likely some js lib ruthlessly breaking backward compatability.
pankkake: bitcoin-central.net actually requires requests to google to work
pankkake: so much for not using cloudflare!
Apocalyptic: that's bothersome
dotcoin: @davout and you are qualified to run a bitcoin exchange?
bounce: just so you know, this is not twittar.
davout: pankkake: you serious about the google thing? shame on me
dotcoin: hosting on 1&1
pankkake: I think so, unless it's only for the font
dotcoin: using cloudfare
dotcoin: bravo
pankkake: I have a RequestPolicy authorization at least
BigBitz: What do you want him to do? use SFTI? :)
Apocalyptic: <dotcoin> hosting on 1&1 // they are on online afaik
Apocalyptic: and no cloudfare
davout: pankkake: it's only for the font, nothing remotely comparable to cloudflare
Duffer1: !up twizt_
assbot: Voicing twizt_ for 30 minutes.
twizt_: dotcoin: you dont have to reveal customer information
twizt_: you can just show the last market trade, by symbol, price quantity
davout: dotcoin: as a matter of fact i am, i am also certainly not using cloudflare or hosting with 1&1
dotcoin: @twizt yes and we don't do
pankkake: I see a request to recaptcha too, weird
dotcoin: @davout or ovh
twizt_: y not
twizt_: cuz for all anyone knows ur hiding true volume
twizt_: which is hella illegal
davout: dotcoin: get a clue before spouting nonsense
twizt_: if you are a 'public venue'
davout: dotcoin: also get an order book
twizt_: how are u p2p decentralized with all 'customer doesnt need to know' attitude
twizt_: dafuq
davout: pankkake: because pre-load
assbot: [MPEX] [S.MPOE] 54780 @ 0.00087656 = 48.018 BTC [-] {2}
dotcoin: we hidde nothing thats is do anyone from you go inside the bourse and take a view and read all? than you see there is nothing hidden there is all transparent
BigBitz: dotcoin what is your reason for not providing volume information/trade information?
twizt_: to hide volume lol
BigBitz: ( other than the obvious )
davout: pankkake: if you want to not make the requests you can use teh API :D
dotcoin: we provide them so why you talking that when it's not true
davout: dotcoin: URLs?
dotcoin: example company 1 list 100k shares
dotcoin: than you see how much shares are on sold left
twizt_: what about after
twizt_: what about secondary trading information
twizt_: after primary quantities are sold off
dotcoin: if you see only 80k tomorrow on sale means 20k are sold you need a calculator for that
BigBitz: Christ...
davout: dotcoin: seriously, shut up and get cracking
BigBitz: !down dotcoin
davout: !down dotcoin
twizt_: so after all ipo shares sold, the secondary trading goes dark? lol
davout: LOL
BigBitz: ;;gpg info dotcoin
gribble: No such user registered.
twizt_: poorly designed exchange
BigBitz: and people wonder why Bitcoin gets a bad name.
davout: poor guy is probably still talking in the chan
BigBitz: Probably...
Duffer1: lmao
BigBitz: U GUYS DONT NO NETHING
BigBitz: this is best way 2 run things
BigBitz: buy 100k sell 80k means 20k left
BigBitz: dumb dumbs
BigBitz: ETC.
davout: dotcoin: we can not see what you type, go do your homework and come back when it's ready, if ever

assbot: [HAVELOCK] [B.MINE] 5 @ 0.03120572 = 0.156 BTC [-] {3}
BigBitz: davout perhaps he is making iceberg/dark pools his important developmental opportunity.
BigBitz: trading volume isn't important, right?
davout: i'd be very interested in an explanation about why it is that bitcoin attracts two radically opposite demographics
davout: smart people
davout: and the terminally retarded
BigBitz: Sadly I don't think I am either of those.
davout: there doesn't seem to be a lot of the average
assbot: [HAVELOCK] [B.MINE] 5 @ 0.03115904 = 0.1558 BTC [-]
BigBitz: wooooo!
pankkake: bitcoin has this image of free money
pankkake: you can make them with your computar
davout: which it is
davout: but somehow i feel like a lot of people come to it with the wrong idea o "fair money"
davout: "fair" in the sense of "democratic" or "equal"
pankkake: well, they realize it doesn't grow on trees and are upset
davout: there's this too
jurov: actually many smart people are repelled first.. especially these that expect thing working properly according to rules
jurov: *things
davout: i think that's more the retarded that act as a repellent to the smart
pankkake: yeah, I stayed away from bitcoin because it seemed full of teenagers
pankkake: that had no idea what they were doing
pankkake: I guess I shouldn't have
davout: radium, discovered by highschoolers indeed
benkay: ;;ticker

pankkake: the success stories, i.e. bitcoin prices, or asicminer in the past, made people want to throw money at it
benkay: ;;calc 0.004 * 456
gribble: 1.824
davout: bounce: the info in there is accurate
bounce: says you, why?
benkay: not bad pricing on these
davout: bounce: because i know
bounce: you suck at the coughing man in a raincoat act
BigBitz: BitVPS best VPS, benkay!
davout: bounce: that's because i'm more like the cop that's looking up his cop DB
jurov: BigBitz: they pay you for it?
pankkake: benkay: so who are they? many *fiat* vps do not live for long. I've experienced one disappearing for example
bounce: so you did whois and got the same info
BigBitz: jurov nobody pays me anything.
pankkake: it was real cheap, though :D
benkay: BigBitz: rly?
davout: bounce: look, if I did that i would say "i did a whois", it just so happens that i have more information, and of much better quality than you do, what's so complicated about that ?
pankkake: http://lowendbox.com/ is a pretty good source of info on vps hosts
jurov: BigBitz: did bitvps regain any referral? i don't see any
BigBitz: davout you're a cop? :o
bounce: says you. to me that's all claims and refusals to back'em up
davout: BigBitz: hehe in some ways i'd say
pankkake: well, usually you just check they have been in business for a while and not high schoolers
davout: bounce: i seriously don't give the slightest shit about you believing me or not
BigBitz: That escalated quickly.
pankkake: I see they were active in 2012 at least
jurov: pankkake: talking about bitvps?
pankkake: no, bitronic
benkay: davout: wish i were there
davout: benkay: i'll send you the CD :D
benkay: such a gentleman
jurov: I worked with ordering materials and grading terrain for masonry/construction.
jurov: :)
BigBitz: Ah.
BigBitz: You're not a cop.
BigBitz: You're the bitcoin-central guy.
jurov: he can still be undercover
BigBitz: I would be surprised.
BigBitz: You know how the French are.
jurov: hmm..i do not?
BigBitz: nor do I but it seemed like something to say :/
BigBitz: work shy, etc.
bounce: who's french now?
davout: BigBitz: yes, that would be me :)
BigBitz: davout, I guess.
bounce: <insert obligatory joke here>
jurov: <insert raunchy clarification>
BigBitz: <escalate with intent>
BigBitz: <witty retort>
davout: <express scorn for other non-french people>
[\]: mircea_popescu, I'm a scammer?
BigBitz: I doubt that.
jurov: don't zing him, he's fucking
