ben_vulpes mircea_popescu, Naphex: are the xotika reports living at predictable urls? [00:28]
ben_vulpes http://log.bitcoin-assets.com//?date=06-10-2015#1292987 << only gripe is with paying shareholder divs without paying tax [00:29]
assbot Logged on 06-10-2015 19:36:34; mircea_popescu: https://xotika.tv/static/report06102015.html << speaking of which, plox to give the guy's numbers a good shakedown, because im considering listing xotika this month. [00:29]
mircea_popescu ben_vulpes they should, yeah [00:30]
ben_vulpes also what constitutes expenditures? [00:31]
ben_vulpes not that anyone cares, but things i'd like to see pre-ipo: [00:33]
ben_vulpes - monthly reports [00:33]
ben_vulpes - description of expenditures [00:33]
ben_vulpes - tax payments [00:33]
ben_vulpes find [00:34]
ben_vulpes fin* [00:34]
ben_vulpes not that i'm even going to look at the blockchain on the latter, but they should at least show up on the balance sheet, even if they are going directly into naphex' pocket [00:34]
mircea_popescu that's actually kinda the idea. [00:34]
ben_vulpes ofc but for logreaders. [00:35]
kakobrekla i rather confused reading this statement but i may be thick [00:35]
kakobrekla im* [00:35]
mircea_popescu questions help. [00:35]
mircea_popescu for me for instance it is quite informative that a reasonable timespan for public consultation is ~2 mo. [00:35]
* mircea_popescu wonders if monthly reports aren't too frequent. [00:36]
* whiterock (70cccffb@gateway/web/freenode/ip.112.204.207.251) has joined #bitcoin-assets [00:36]
kakobrekla fees are taken on withdrawals? how much is that fee? [00:37]
ben_vulpes monthly is an adequate frequency for inspecting operators commitment to the project. [00:37]
mircea_popescu !up whiterock [00:37]
-assbot- You voiced whiterock for 30 minutes. [00:37]
* assbot gives voice to whiterock [00:37]
mircea_popescu ben_vulpes yeah, that's true. [00:37]
ben_vulpes see davout and x.eur [00:37]
whiterock !up [00:38]
ben_vulpes too late, whiterock, mircea_popescu beat you to it. [00:38]
kakobrekla what are these private investments? do those investors get same shares as (will be) on mpex? [00:38]
whiterock haha thanks [00:38]
mircea_popescu kakobrekla that's just the guy putting money in from his pocket. [00:39]
kakobrekla dividends are 9 from 35? [00:40]
ben_vulpes board can authorize divs of whatever size they want to? [00:40]
mircea_popescu huh ? [00:40]
mircea_popescu anyway, i dun recall what they charged, a few % but sliding scale [00:41]
kakobrekla yeah these numbers dont make any sense to me still. [00:41]
mircea_popescu somewhat unrelated, http://36.media.tumblr.com/1cc9a5d0cfe50e3ab506233f9f113a82/tumblr_mksvh7tuk11rl0d0yo1_1280.jpg [00:42]
assbot ... ( http://bit.ly/1m9vjrI ) [00:42]
whiterock hi guys i cant back read the topi. if its ok, may i know what is being discussed? [00:42]
ben_vulpes shareholder equity implies a previous investment round as well. [00:42]
ben_vulpes whiterock: find the topic with /topic [00:42]
mircea_popescu whiterock try the log eh. [00:42]
ben_vulpes but that has nothing to do with the topic [00:42]
kakobrekla > as fees are calculated on withdrawal >Dividend to shareholders 9.6487 > Withdrawals* 35.7354 > [00:42]
whiterock oh great thanks [00:42]
mircea_popescu ben_vulpes no, it's an accumulator value. everything not otherwise accounted is shareholder equity. [00:42]
mircea_popescu kakobrekla and where's the problem ? [00:43]
kakobrekla 9 btc on 35 btc ? [00:43]
ben_vulpes aok [00:44]
mircea_popescu they're not really related tho. so the site paid 35 btc in withdrawals (by performers) and 9 btc in dividends [00:44]
ben_vulpes like i said kakobrekla the 'board' can pay whatever in divs apparently [00:44]
mircea_popescu it can pay whatever it wants in dividends, up to its entire cash balance. [00:44]
kakobrekla but site generates div from fees on withdrawals [00:44]
kakobrekla aha [00:44]
mircea_popescu no, it generates dividends on board say-so out of its cash [00:44]
mircea_popescu just as long as they're paid fairly (ie, by share ownership proportion) they can be any arbitrary value between 0 and entreprise value [00:45]
kakobrekla so he paid 9to himself if i understand this correctly? [00:45]
mircea_popescu logically he put 23 in got 9 out, seems to me [00:45]
ben_vulpes ;;calc 23.8804/7.16412 [00:46]
gribble 3.33333333333 [00:46]
whiterock is punkman around btw? [00:46]
ben_vulpes ;;calc 7.16412/23.8804 [00:47]
gribble 0.3 [00:47]
kakobrekla and 'platform dev' ? is he charging the actual work needed with the site? [00:47]
ben_vulpes 30% depreciation in server value over four months and some days? [00:47]
ben_vulpes aaa fractional months [00:47]
mircea_popescu the one problem i see in there is that if there's 73 deposited and 35 withdrawn, the difference is unearned income, and improperly reported as shareholder equity. [00:48]
mircea_popescu should really be under viewers i suppose. [00:48]
* NewLiberty has quit (Ping timeout: 264 seconds) [00:48]
ben_vulpes yeah also what is platform dev [00:49]
ben_vulpes and why is that reported as an asset value increase [00:49]
* whiterock slaps punkman around a bit with a large fishbot [00:49]
mircea_popescu that i recall the discussion of. i asked if it has resale/license value, and he said yes. [00:49]
ben_vulpes !down whiterock [00:49]
* assbot removes voice from whiterock [00:49]
mircea_popescu so in principle, it could be sold. [00:49]
ben_vulpes some hand-wavey value of the software? [00:50]
mircea_popescu i would expect it's a historical value of the software [00:50]
mircea_popescu "this is what we spend developing it" [00:50]
ben_vulpes i thought Naphex wrote it [00:50]
mircea_popescu i thought it was a one man show originally too, but apparently there's at least another guy (this CoraCrisT fellow) doing something in between ceo and pr. [00:51]
mircea_popescu and i guess more people. [00:51]
mircea_popescu !up CoraCrisT [00:51]
-assbot- You voiced CoraCrisT for 30 minutes. [00:51]
* assbot gives voice to CoraCrisT [00:51]
ben_vulpes also "software" should be depreciated on a goddamn 2 year schedule it rots so quickly. especially these single-page angular things; they're exceptionally more expensive to maintain as time goes on. [00:51]
mircea_popescu !gettrust CoraCrisT [00:51]
assbot Trust relationship from user mircea_popescu to user CoraCrisT: Level 1: 0, Level 2: 0 via 0 connections. | http://www.btcalpha.com/wot/trust/?from=mircea_popescu&to=CoraCrisT | http://www.btcalpha.com/wot/user/CoraCrisT/ [00:51]
mircea_popescu ben_vulpes afaik their major weakness is an inability to run in anything but chrome atm [00:52]
ben_vulpes that has nothing to do with depreciation schedule. [00:53]
mircea_popescu no, but it has a lot to do with future cost. [00:53]
ben_vulpes and think what you will, constraining the operating environment to just chrome is a pretty sensible cost-reducing move. [00:53]
mircea_popescu i didn't veto it or anything. [00:53]
mircea_popescu jus' saying. [00:53]
ben_vulpes you can make the consumers "come to expect" anything, unless mgmt insists pigheadedly on cross-browser support chasing "lift" or "conversion" or some such, chrome should be adequate. [00:54]
ben_vulpes ofc this buys also the risk of google ripping the sheets out from under one. [00:55]
mircea_popescu i dunno that anyone's downloading a browser to run your spunk app. [00:55]
mircea_popescu moreover, unless google;'s paying for this, why the fuck am i dirving their dumbass product on my dime. [00:55]
ben_vulpes everyone already has chrome, there is no "download". [00:55]
mircea_popescu i don't know anyone running chrome. [00:55]
* ben_vulpes rolls eyes [00:56]
mircea_popescu o god damned it [00:56]
mircea_popescu o.O [00:57]
mircea_popescu i stand corrected. [00:57]
* mircea_popescu looked in trilema's last month, it's actually mostly chrome. http://dpaste.com/2VEQBEC [00:58]
assbot dpaste: 2VEQBEC ... ( http://bit.ly/1m9wpne ) [00:58]
mircea_popescu so i guess there's a new microsoft huh. [01:00]
* ben_vulpes nods [01:00]
mircea_popescu sad. [01:00]
mircea_popescu god forsaken species that never in its history produced anything but stupid. [01:01]
ben_vulpes welcome, mircea_popescu, to the new new new new web [01:01]
mircea_popescu "oh i know, we've never done the stupid thing THIS WAY before!" [01:01]
ben_vulpes what was it before? [01:01]
ben_vulpes lynx? [01:01]
mircea_popescu "drop everything! there's another same-way to do the stupid!" [01:01]

mircea_popescu that sciencemag bit is hysterical tho. idiots who buy into the whole "ip is needed for to creativity with!" hook line and sinker are displeased when it turns out "ip only exists for people to arb the process, and make money out of the money intended to support creativity". but it never occurs to them what the problem is. because hey, why should scientists be any better at thinking than random five year old, "dog bit me [08:13]
mircea_popescu , dog's bad" [08:13]
mircea_popescu it's not like their own unsufferable personalities ever bite them. it's just these damned dogs everywhere all the time! [08:14]
mircea_popescu anyway, so the point of the "is random derp X ?" (no) article was so that reuters could run a piece saying "Australian police raided the Sydney home and office on Wednesday of a man named by Wired magazine as the probable creator of bitcoin and holder of hundreds of millions of dollars worth of the cryptocurrency, Reuters witnesses said." [08:16]
mircea_popescu which is great, i guess, if you're at that level of stupid, but otherwise would seem kinda damaging. [08:16]

asciilifeform 'The primary design goal MUMPS was to create code that, once written, can never be maintained by anyone ever again. The syntax is somewhat reminiscent of FORTRAN and SNOBOL (no, not the toilet cleaner), only much, much worse. Ironically, being inflicted with mumps (the disease) is much more pleasant that actually working with MUMPS (the language). A more apt name for the language certainly would have been EXPLOSIVE-DIARRHEA; I [22:21]
