pankkake | I'd certainly like a bounty system for open source devs, but I'm not very convinced "tips" can work and reward the right people | [00:23] |
* | punkman1 has quit (Ping timeout: 260 seconds) | [00:24] |
pankkake | https://www.gittip.com/ for a fiat version | [00:25] |
ozbot | Gittip | [00:25] |
pankkake | lol to receiver "I am making the world better by facilitating conversations about diversity, inclusivity and social justice in the hopes of promoting empathy and equality within the tech community." | [00:25] |
pankkake | top* | [00:25] |
mircea_popescu | pankkake tips are exactly the wrong thing in that they would split the community into two types, the actual devs and the people who make a living pretending to be devs. | [00:26] |
mircea_popescu | it's bad enough with fucktards a la maxwell or hearn hanging on to the thing just for the "fame" | [00:26] |
mircea_popescu | god forbid they start making a living at it, it'll be the death of os. | [00:26] |
pankkake | it's often working that way in the circles I know, tip or not | [00:26] |
mircea_popescu | myeah. | [00:27] |
pankkake | some excellent devs have no social media presence, almost no existence besides posting enormous git patches on mailing lists ;) | [00:27] |
kakobrekla | shrooms. | [00:29] |

ThickAsThieves | the new blockchain.info logo looks lame | [00:30] |
ThickAsThieves | it was better before | [00:30] |
ThickAsThieves | it was also better in blue | [00:31] |
pankkake | they're fixing the css instead of fixing the real bugs :/ | [00:31] |
assbot | [HAVELOCK] [PETA] 3 @ 0.04899999 = 0.147 BTC [+] | [00:31] |
kakobrekla | but css is the real bug | [00:31] |
pankkake | sometimes it multiples the btcs by a random number that makes no sense and adds a $, is that css? | [00:32] |
kakobrekla | hehe | [00:32] |
mircea_popescu | it's c$$ | [00:32] |

davout | ThickAsThieves: it looks kinda fuzzy/dirty | [00:47] |
turbo_ac100 | mircea_popescu: do people repair in Romania? | [00:47] |
davout | or maybe its just my glasses | [00:47] |
turbo_ac100 | electronics I mean | [00:48] |
mircea_popescu | notrly. | [00:50] |
mircea_popescu | why ? | [00:50] |
ThickAsThieves | davout, it's poor ability to scale and questionable typography are signs they didn't hire a quality pro | [00:51] |
ThickAsThieves | its | [00:51] |
turbo_ac100 | I have a repair business and want to find stuff in eastern europe | [00:51] |
ThickAsThieves | i should get into bitcoin business brand mgmt | [00:51] |
turbo_ac100 | *staff rather | [00:51] |
ThickAsThieves | teach these people to scam like adults | [00:51] |
ThickAsThieves | (that's a joke) | [00:52] |
mircea_popescu | wow it's still a business ? | [00:52] |
mircea_popescu | you may find decent elec engineers on the cheap, but i doubt they'd have much practice fixing stuff. tinkering on their own more like it. | [00:52] |
turbo_ac100 | well, a repair website is. Not complicated stuff, just more or less an ifixit done right | [00:53] |
mircea_popescu | interesting. | [00:53] |
ThickAsThieves | another possibility for blockchain's logo is their internal pm didn't take the advice of said hired pro | [00:53] |
turbo_ac100 | ifixit.com tries to go to europe big time but they still pretty much suck | [00:53] |
ThickAsThieves | common | [00:53] |
mircea_popescu | so what'd i repair ? | [00:53] |
mircea_popescu | ThickAsThieves they changed it once before, and it went the same way, shittier after. | [00:54] |
turbo_ac100 | appliances is the proper term I think. Phones, laptops, Xboxes and so on | [00:54] |
ThickAsThieves | sounds like they have an engineer in charge of branding | [00:54] |
mircea_popescu | i am surprised fixing your own iphone isn't against the tos. | [00:55] |
azi` | its in a way crazy that we just throw stuff when something trivial breaks off | [00:55] |
mircea_popescu | it is. | [00:55] |
Dimsler_ | lol | [00:56] |
Dimsler_ | took shrem away | [00:56] |
punkman | azi`: it costs a lot to debug modern electronics, not trivial | [00:56] |
turbo_ac100 | azi`: that's what I think, too. | [00:56] |
Dimsler_ | i honestly hate the bitcoin foundation | [00:56] |
Dimsler_ | collection of retards | [00:56] |
mircea_popescu | welcome to the club. | [00:56] |
azi` | yeah but it probably costs a lot because the infrastructure for debugging is not built | [00:56] |
mircea_popescu | thoi they're more comedic than anything. keeping other retards busy | [00:56] |
ThickAsThieves | an iphone is just an expensive integrated circuit | [00:56] |
turbo_ac100 | punkman: some things are hard to debug the obvious things we do well | [00:56] |
Dimsler_ | all those clowns do is more damage than good | [00:56] |
ThickAsThieves | replace the whole thing! | [00:56] |
punkman | though I agree, throwing away a perfectly good TV with a blow capacitor is an incredible waste | [00:56] |
azi` | its probably the same way with software if you don't put debugging capability in your code | [00:56] |
punkman | *blow | [00:56] |
punkman | *blown | [00:56] |
Dimsler_ | well i jus tdon't like how gavin has that bitcoind sourceforge key | [00:57] |
azi` | to change the topic a bit so what's this thing with shrem, was he actually a shady guy? | [00:57] |
Dimsler_ | not like it matters | [00:57] |
ThickAsThieves | yet they still make xmas lights with individually replaceable bulbs | [00:57] |
turbo_ac100 | for the non obvious things it works like this: sedn the device to some guy knowing his shit, pay a fixed amount that covers a basic fix (~20€) and get it debugged | [00:57] |
Dimsler_ | anyone watch NYS inquiry today? | [00:57] |
Dimsler_ | one of the guys totally owned charles lee | [00:58] |
punkman | turbo_ac100: does that work with big items? | [00:58] |
ThickAsThieves | who owned him? | [00:58] |
* | zoinky has quit (Quit: Leaving.) | [00:58] |
mircea_popescu | Dimsler_ not like anyone actually uses the new versions anywya. | [00:58] |
ThickAsThieves | i started not paying attention | [00:58] |
punkman | been waiting 2 months to get the damn dishwasher fixed | [00:58] |
Dimsler_ | with the highlander quote of btc being the best one | [00:58] |
ThickAsThieves | dishwashers are all disposable these days | [00:59] |
KRS1 | nothing really came of it, at least for now | [00:59] |
mircea_popescu | azi` not as far as anyone knew, he seemed the regular 20something reefer. | [00:59] |
ThickAsThieves | i got mine "fixed" | [00:59] |
ThickAsThieves | waste of money | [00:59] |
punkman | mine is expensive and nicew | [00:59] |
turbo_ac100 | punkman: difficult. It depends: for washing machines you have to have a license to repair it. The pricing is insane | [00:59] |
mircea_popescu | washing machines, at least what i've seen, contain a 20 to 50lb piece of concrete | [00:59] |
punkman | yah I'm waiting for the official repair guy to get the damn part | [01:00] |
mircea_popescu | shipping that shit around is a waste. | [01:00] |
* | elgrecoFL has quit (Excess Flood) | [01:00] |
turbo_ac100 | mircea_popescu: sure, nobody sends those | [01:00] |
mircea_popescu | besides, you should be able to fix that yourself | [01:00] |
mircea_popescu | it's an engine and three contacts. | [01:00] |
turbo_ac100 | lol I don't need romanians for that | [01:01] |
ThickAsThieves | if i fixed all the things i could fix myself myself, would i still be american? | [01:01] |
turbo_ac100 | mircea_popescu: plus assloads of planned obsolesence circuitry sadly | [01:01] |
davout | i just read that "it's an engine and three contracts" XD | [01:01] |

turbo_ac100 | in austria one big NGO has offices all over austria where they replace the µcs for better efficiency and longer life | [01:03] |
mircea_popescu | last time mine broke down it was fun, i taught teh girlz electrics. | [01:03] |
turbo_ac100 | mircea_popescu: sure | [01:03] |
punkman | mircea_popescu: do you happen to know what's the most recent Thinkpad without Intel AMT crap? | [01:03] |
mircea_popescu | i don't. | [01:03] |
mircea_popescu | is the thinkpad like the most beloved laptop design of all time by now ? | [01:04] |
punkman | possibly | [01:04] |
turbo_ac100 | I like the austrian way but prefer a real business obv. | [01:04] |
turbo_ac100 | what about romanian developers? | [01:05] |
mircea_popescu | what about them ? | [01:08] |
turbo_ac100 | Well, I heard it about Sofia that developers are often times willing to study somewhere in the EU and go back to Bulgaria despite way lower wages. Maybe it's the same in Bucharest? | [01:10] |
mircea_popescu | prolly. | [01:11] |
mircea_popescu | what do they care, internet. | [01:11] |
turbo_ac100 | Some people still want to sit in an office for w/ever reason and go local. | [01:11] |
mircea_popescu | no, actually, eastern europe has much better hdi than the rest of the world. | [01:12] |
mircea_popescu | people like the local food, the local girls, the local atmosphere | [01:12] |
mircea_popescu | and they'll be fucked if they'll live in the shithole that is the uk or w/e | [01:12] |
mircea_popescu | can't even get decent pickles. | [01:12] |
mircea_popescu | the jews and the italians resolved this problem in the 1920s ny by inventing the deli. | [01:13] |
KRS1 | The day the deli was invented in the 1920s..well, this was a sacred day. Long live the deli. | [01:13] |

mike_c | wow, there are over 1m goats in romania. | [02:18] |

mike_c | how could it not be true? | [02:19] |
mike_c | "The number of goat is about 1220000." hehe | [02:20] |
mircea_popescu | reason i ask is, recently the government was embarassed to all hell | [02:20] |
mircea_popescu | because it couldn't produce a total figure for porcines in the country | [02:20] |
mircea_popescu | notwithstanding they do expensive tagging and whatnot. | [02:20] |

pankkake | I am so many trilema articles behind | [02:26] |
mircea_popescu | one can not keep up | [02:26] |
mircea_popescu | my mother can not keep up | [02:26] |
pankkake | hm. so I should get a slave to TL;DR it for me | [02:26] |
pankkake | maybe I'll read that Asylum thing on my ereader | [02:27] |
mircea_popescu | seems to me if you pay a woman to read trilema a slave is you. | [02:29] |
mircea_popescu | she gets all the fun | [02:29] |
pankkake | anyway I liked TWoWS, weird as I both dislike movies about drugs and di caprio. technically the movies good without making sense | [02:29] |
pankkake | I wish there was more emphasis on the actual financial part | [02:30] |
mircea_popescu | dude... | [02:30] |
mircea_popescu | idiot kid is shown droping acid or w/e pre exam | [02:30] |
mircea_popescu | then he "passed it" | [02:31] |
mircea_popescu | magically. | [02:31] |
mircea_popescu | like that. | [02:31] |
mircea_popescu | what's this, like a telenovella, people are supposedly working but nobody does anything ever. | [02:31] |
pankkake | I'm not used to read long things on a computer. Except amateur porn stories I guess | [02:32] |
pankkake | actually that's how I started to learn English outside of education :D | [02:32] |

Apocalyptic | mircea_popescu, have you watched Black mirror yet ? | [02:33] |
mircea_popescu | nop | [02:33] |
Apocalyptic | some material for trilema articles in there imo | [02:34] |
mircea_popescu | i don't really do tv series | [02:34] |
mike_c | i hope you weren't saying you didn't enjoy boiler room. granted, it's not good film, but it is enjoyable. | [02:34] |
Apocalyptic | nor do I, but i'm kinda sure you'll like this | [02:34] |
Apocalyptic | it's not even a tv serie as in the episodes are completely unrelated to each other | [02:34] |
Apocalyptic | consider it a set of mini films | [02:34] |
pankkake | seems like the twilight zone | [02:35] |
mircea_popescu | mike_c marginally. | [02:35] |
KRS1 | mircea_popescu: did you at least do breaking bad? | [02:35] |

mircea_popescu | no i know the generalities. | [14:20] |

mircea_popescu | so perhaps a correct model could be, "sports betting consists of people who lived in the 70s, had fun with bets in the 70s, continuing to do what they did then, where they did it then" | [14:31] |
assbot | [HAVELOCK] [AM1] 10 @ 0.43099999 = 4.31 BTC [+] | [14:31] |
mircea_popescu | if that's the case, a start-up hoping to get that market on a new model would be kinda doomed. the paying customer is too old to move and the young customer does not exist. | [14:31] |
BingoBoingo | Prolly and nao where it interesects with bitcoin includes you kids who wish they were in the 70's so they could sync iPods on their PDP-11 | [14:32] |
mircea_popescu | BingoBoingo but there are plenty of insane bets on bitbet | [14:32] |
assbot | [HAVELOCK] [AM1] 20 @ 0.43624848 = 8.725 BTC [+] {6} | [14:32] |
ThickAsThieves | [07:25] |
[14:32] |
mircea_popescu | perhaps not the right kind of insane. | [14:32] |
BingoBoingo | mircea_popescu: Right, but I imagine most sports bettors never had the money to make a dent in the 2B difficulty bet. | [14:32] |
Duffer1 | bets not being created doesn't necessarily mean lack of interest in betting with bitcoin, if there was a specific section dedicated to live odds sports book it just might attract more people | [14:33] |

assbot | [MPEX] [S.MPOE] 15600 @ 0.00088522 = 13.8094 BTC [+] {2} | [14:33] |
mircea_popescu | Duffer1 there's at least half a dozen diff sites that tried - and failed - to live on that model. | [14:33] |
BingoBoingo | mircea_popescu: As far as football this year goes though, the NFL has had one on its most boring years in history. | [14:33] |
Duffer1 | i wouldn't know, just a thought ^.^ | [14:33] |
mircea_popescu | the problem is this : other than the intrinsic unfairness to the bettors of the line model, it also requires VERY highly skilled people working for the hgouse, and non stop. | [14:33] |
mircea_popescu | you can't afford to pay for these without volume. | [14:34] |

assbot | [HAVELOCK] [AM1] 16 @ 0.4596874 = 7.355 BTC [+] {6} | [14:34] |
mircea_popescu | if you don't pay for them, then you'll get raped. | [14:34] |
herbijudlestoids | you dont think HFT bots can handle the job mircea_popescu? | [14:34] |
mircea_popescu | herbijudlestoids on whose software ? | [14:34] |
BingoBoingo | herbijudlestoids: They those bots have openings too. | [14:34] |
ThickAsThieves | [14:35] | |
mircea_popescu | hft bots aren't a magic amulet, like "bitcoin makes me anon so i can buy drugz" | [14:35] |
herbijudlestoids | i guess ot make a good bot would require similar investment to having good people | [14:35] |
BingoBoingo | HTF bots get owned by Slow penetrating bots | [14:35] |
assbot | [HAVELOCK] [AM1] 1 @ 0.5 BTC [+] | [14:35] |
mircea_popescu | it's a war race. | [14:35] |
herbijudlestoids | good bot+infrastructure | [14:35] |
herbijudlestoids | arms race? | [14:35] |
herbijudlestoids | yea | [14:35] |
mircea_popescu | ThickAsThieves i have no idea what's going on, tbh. | [14:35] |
ThickAsThieves | it's really way simpler an explanation | [14:36] |
ThickAsThieves | you have no exposure to the sports betting audience | [14:36] |
assbot | [HAVELOCK] [AM1] 11 @ 0.51416231 = 5.6558 BTC [+] {4} | [14:36] |
herbijudlestoids | moral of the story: just like all other businesses, an appropriate level of investment is required to have a successful outcome | [14:36] |
BingoBoingo | I mean the people who claim to bitcoin sportsbet seem to overlap with the BTC poker people | [14:36] |
ThickAsThieves | they dont even own bitcoins | [14:36] |
mircea_popescu | ThickAsThieves this is factual. the question of interest however, is if such an audience even exists, and other such things. | [14:36] |
truffles | betting site but doesnt know market hmmm | [14:37] |
mircea_popescu | truffles nobody knows the market. some people admit to it. | [14:37] |
herbijudlestoids | ThickAsThieves: if you offered them a betting model that has a lower house commission, etc they might be very interested | [14:37] |
ThickAsThieves | it's like trying to sell truffles at a Patriots game | [14:37] |
mircea_popescu | herbijudlestoids what's the house comission on line betting normally ? 2-5% ? | [14:37] |
ThickAsThieves | theyll be like eww mushrooms! | [14:37] |
herbijudlestoids | yea about that | [14:37] |
truffles | haha | [14:37] |
mircea_popescu | bitbet does 1% | [14:37] |
herbijudlestoids | but is there good game coverage and high liquidity? | [14:38] |
mircea_popescu | the difference to your risk of ruin between 1 and 4% is HUGE | [14:38] |
herbijudlestoids | yep | [14:38] |
mircea_popescu | it has more liquidity than vegas and no coverage at all | [14:38] |
assbot | [HAVELOCK] [AM100] 58 @ 0.00438319 = 0.2542 BTC [+] {4} | [14:38] |
mircea_popescu | in spite of coverage being self-serve. | [14:38] |
herbijudlestoids | so then i would posit its simply a matter of marketing | [14:38] |
mircea_popescu | bitbet actually PAYS 100 dollars for every bet made, yet people don't make sports bets. | [14:38] |
herbijudlestoids | did anyone allocate $500,000 or $1,000,000 to marketing? | [14:38] |
mircea_popescu | it would seem so, but i have suspicions that it's simply a question of there not being a market. | [14:39] |
herbijudlestoids | hmm | [14:39] |
ThickAsThieves | yeah | [14:39] |
mircea_popescu | which is a question that has to be resolved bfore i throw money at marketing people. | [14:39] |
chetty | The federal agency charged with helping consumers make better financial decisions is facing questions about how it has managed its own money. | [14:39] |
mircea_popescu | i have no doubt they can spend it. | [14:39] |
ThickAsThieves | dont go marketing truffles to football fans | [14:39] |
ThickAsThieves | it makes no sense | [14:39] |
assbot | [MPEX] [S.MPOE] 13500 @ 0.00088532 = 11.9518 BTC [+] | [14:39] |
assbot | [HAVELOCK] [AM100] 90 @ 0.00438354 = 0.3945 BTC [+] {3} | [14:39] |
mircea_popescu | ahahaha chetty that's gold | [14:39] |
mircea_popescu | ThickAsThieves obviously more research is needed here. for one thing, how do we even know they're truffles. | [14:39] |
herbijudlestoids | the other option is ramp the entry costs and target high net worth betters | [14:40] |
mircea_popescu | just cause we think we're pretty cool ? | [14:40] |
herbijudlestoids | offer the 1% rate as a high net worth perk | [14:40] |
assbot | [HAVELOCK] [AM1] 5 @ 0.51677618 = 2.5839 BTC [+] | [14:40] |
mircea_popescu | herbijudlestoids i would love to target high net work bettors, strictly to hear why they think it sucks. | [14:40] |
ThickAsThieves | well what is the most popular form of sports betting, its that intrade shares shit right? | [14:40] |
mircea_popescu | i don't have a book. anyone has/knows someone with a large old style book ? | [14:40] |
herbijudlestoids | many moons ago i used to work as an ops guy for a large cable tv company | [14:40] |
BingoBoingo | You know for someone who uses shady forum advertised sports books quite a bit... I prolly ought to look harder at who runs them. | [14:40] |
mircea_popescu | ThickAsThieves intrade is ded. not sure if popular tbh, but definitely dead. | [14:41] |
herbijudlestoids | and one of the security guards happened to be extremely well off, but he worked as a guard to keep the tax offic eoff his back | [14:41] |

herbijudlestoids | mircea_popescu: what about if instead of a bank | [14:47] |
herbijudlestoids | you contacted one of the hedge funds that deals in bitcoins | [14:47] |

mircea_popescu | because i don't wish to destroy, i wish to exist. bitcoin is essential to this, and so here i am doing things i don't particularly wish to do on their own, | [14:50] |

herbijudlestoids | needs moar brand yo | [16:20] |
ThickAsThieves | the need to educate your customers is such a burden | [16:20] |
mircea_popescu | for some odd reason in romania "brand" denotes the thick of one's arm | [16:21] |
herbijudlestoids | thats essentially the technology premium toh | [16:21] |
ThickAsThieves | particularly in that you are teaching them something they REALLY dont want to believe | [16:21] |
herbijudlestoids | s/toh/tho | [16:21] |
mircea_popescu | so that whole discussion is extra funny to me | [16:21] |
BingoBoingo | herbijudlestoids: No need to own a still. Time spent operating a hypothical or alleged still could be better spent on other ventures. | [16:21] |
herbijudlestoids | i work in large scale IaaS and its the same, you gotta educate everyone | [16:21] |
ThickAsThieves | it gets extra fucked up too, | [16:21] |
ThickAsThieves | in that they are soo persistent | [16:22] |
ThickAsThieves | you start to wonder if they are right | [16:22] |
ThickAsThieves | and whether the whole thing is a joke | [16:22] |
ThickAsThieves | (it kinda is) | [16:22] |
herbijudlestoids | justuwait, the next gen kiddies will know all our secrets by the time theyre 12 and work for minimum wage to do the same thing | [16:22] |
mircea_popescu | this is starting to sound a little too much like popular bitcoin finance. | [16:22] |
mircea_popescu | herbijudlestoids what rattles me is this : how can you sit there and propose democracy as anything but a horror, with this experience ? | [16:23] |
ThickAsThieves | i also began to feel guilty manipulating customers to not shoot themselves | [16:23] |
herbijudlestoids | mircea_popescu: i think there is a lot to be said for systems with high friction | [16:23] |
BingoBoingo | Didn't even have to read Plato | [16:23] |
mircea_popescu | why would you want more democracy at all, or any democracy whatsoever in anything you care about at all ? | [16:23] |
ThickAsThieves | you dont | [16:23] |
mircea_popescu | well i don't. | [16:23] |
ThickAsThieves | thats the big joke in entering the graphic design field | [16:24] |
ThickAsThieves | kids get into it to express their talent | [16:24] |
mircea_popescu | god forbid they start making democracy steak. | [16:24] |
herbijudlestoids | complex systems "complicate away" friction and make the system less robust | [16:24] |
herbijudlestoids | depart from equilibrium | [16:24] |
ThickAsThieves | but that job is all about doing what everyone else ssays | [16:24] |
herbijudlestoids | simple systems are robust and do not depart from equilibrium | [16:24] |
mircea_popescu | ThickAsThieves this is a good point actualy. | [16:24] |
herbijudlestoids | easiest way to ensure robustness is friction | [16:24] |
mircea_popescu | herbijudlestoids so make them simple rather than open. | [16:24] |
ThickAsThieves | then, | [16:25] |
ThickAsThieves | even if you make it, to be, say, a Creative Director | [16:25] |

mircea_popescu | herbijudlestoids there's a subtle point involved here : back when information cost money you had a bunch of ignoramuses clearly labeled as such and lots of educated people. | [16:30] |

ThickAsThieves | predicting, lol | [16:31] |
herbijudlestoids | excuse my colloquialism | [16:31] |
mircea_popescu | herbijudlestoids if you take the whole predictive discourse of economy in 1913 and compare to 2013 | [16:31] |
herbijudlestoids | forecast | [16:31] |
mircea_popescu | you will find a marked decline in the average quality. | [16:31] |

mircea_popescu | this is BECAUSE a democratic view to specialist fields is harmful for everyone involved : | [16:32] |
mircea_popescu | the idiots, the professionals, society at large. | [16:32] |
herbijudlestoids | mircea_popescu: as someone who actually sits on SSRN in his free time reading research old and new i kind of disagree | [16:32] |

mircea_popescu | maybe someone takes the time to settle this. | [16:32] |
herbijudlestoids | i dunno about your view but i am just saying predictive discourse was worse in 1913 than now | [16:32] |
mircea_popescu | tho it's a huge task, you can't even read all the deluge of today | [16:33] |
BingoBoingo | herbijudlestoids: Maybe subscribe to some more interesting stuff than SSRN | [16:33] |
mircea_popescu | herbijudlestoids worse, in what measure ? | [16:33] |
ThickAsThieves | is it really a prediction if it was the plan all along? | [16:33] |
herbijudlestoids | in resolution, accuracy, understanding, etc | [16:33] |
mircea_popescu | i strictly mean, average quality went down, in the sense the understanding displayed dwindled. not in the sense better predictions were done | [16:33] |

mircea_popescu | nubbins` i guess it depends whose. | [16:54] |
nubbins` | that's like almost half a house! | [16:55] |
nubbins` | "sez here you lost an incredible amount of money to some website. do you know who runs it?" "some guy named doug, i think" | [16:55] |
herbijudlestoids | in aus the house price to avg salary ratio is double the US, so 100BTC is like, 20% at best for the value of a house here :P | [16:56] |
nubbins` | herbijudlestoids: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=29-01-2014#465989 | [16:57] |
mircea_popescu | this would imply aussies avgt salary is 2.5x us | [16:57] |

mircea_popescu | gdp/capita is a poor measure of salaries, anyway. | [16:58] |
herbijudlestoids | but in both cases very close to the avg salary | [16:58] |
nubbins` | well, what's in an average | [16:58] |
mircea_popescu | ro gdp/capita is like 8k. average salary is like 500, minimum wage is a whopping 150 dollars. | [16:58] |
nubbins` | know the average income of the city bill gates lives? | [16:59] |
herbijudlestoids | some form of aggregate understanding? | [16:59] |
nubbins` | s/understanding/data | [16:59] |
mircea_popescu | like 2/3 of the population makes that minimum wage. | [16:59] |
herbijudlestoids | just checked to confirm US avg salary is $52k USD and AUS avg salary is $73k AUD, evens out to be about 50/70 on a PP basis | [17:02] |

mircea_popescu | point remains, there is a LOT of variance in both housing prices and salaries in the us. | [17:03] |
mircea_popescu | the "half a house" comment probably references older discussions re the housing market in central ohio | [17:03] |
nubbins` | nah just going on my own house | [17:03] |
nubbins` | only one person who regulars this chan cares about central ohio ;p | [17:04] |
ThickAsThieves | it's like $2800 for 1000sqft in San Francisco and $800/mo for a 1700sqft house in north Florida | [17:04] |
nubbins` | so many people from around here own houses in florida now | [17:04] |
nubbins` | imagine, the descendants of fishmongers from what is historically canada's poorest province, scooping up florida real estate like monopoly properties | [17:06] |
nubbins` | not sure if it says more about here or there | [17:06] |
mircea_popescu | The “True Love Tester” bra can’t be masterfully unhooked by some skeevy player who hit on the wearer at a club. No, this bra only comes undone when sensors embedded inside it that are connected wirelessly to a smartphone app detect a particular heart rate | [17:07] |

mircea_popescu | get on the stairmaster, tits go out | [17:08] |
nubbins` | keep your heart rate up OR ELSE | [17:08] |
herbijudlestoids | the house price to income in aus is about 4 atm and about 3 in the US | [17:08] |
mircea_popescu | dude that's a gread idea | [17:08] |

mircea_popescu | just don't start with any thermos bs. | [17:22] |
nubbins` | well i was thinking about banning everyone by default | [17:23] |
mircea_popescu | lol | [17:23] |
nubbins` | (srsly) | [17:23] |
nubbins` | hence the original question ;D | [17:24] |
mircea_popescu | well then if you ban everyone what do i care ? i'll never know. | [17:24] |
nubbins` | you'd probably get an honorary membership | [17:24] |
nubbins` | i mean, uh, un-baning | [17:24] |

mircea_popescu | well no, you can't do that. | [17:25] |
nubbins` | aha | [17:25] |
mircea_popescu | why do you want to make a pay forum anyway | [17:26] |
nubbins` | (a) to cover costs and (b) to get paid | [17:26] |
nubbins` | justifiable if the content is there | [17:26] |
nubbins` | for instance, gigposters.com forums costs $20/year for "premium" membership | [17:26] |

nubbins` | not required, but you're mercilessly browbeaten if you leech too much good advice without buying one. | [17:27] |
nubbins` | and the real nice stuff, like plans for equipment, is hidden inside the premium members subforum | [17:27] |
assbot | [HAVELOCK] [AM1] 2 @ 0.63 = 1.26 BTC [-] | [17:28] |
mircea_popescu | but listen, if what you want is to get paid, you should do something else than a forum | [17:28] |
mircea_popescu | forums are god awful for this purpose. do something that pays. | [17:28] |
azi` | so weird.. if you want to withdraw funds from mtgox and send them to another BTC you are faced with "invalid BTC address" error multiple times and it only works after a random amount of "submit clicks.. | [17:28] |

gecko_x2 | so how can he access the btc? | [22:28] |

pankkake | what is this second password thing? | [22:28] |
deadweasel | the eagle flies at midnight | [22:28] |
ThickAsThieves | until the bitcoins are in your own private wallet, you dont have them | [22:28] |
pankkake | blochchain.info derives the private key from the password IIRC | [22:28] |
