mircea_popescu | nah, cause mole. | [00:32] |
BingoBoingo | benkay: The anti-fungibility and other stuff | [00:32] |
mircea_popescu | pretty much what he's doing is trying to fuck up bitcoin. | [00:32] |
ThickAsThieves | i barely know him though | [00:32] |
mircea_popescu | not sometimes. always. | [00:32] |
jcpham | oh lolololol is MNW | [00:32] |
jcpham | can't take that guy seriously | [00:32] |
benkay | oh he's behind the antifungibility song and dance? | [00:32] |
mircea_popescu | hearn is the guy that answered experimentally the usg's question as to "what happens in case of major bitcoin fork ?" | [00:33] |
benkay | sounds like assume bitcoinj is trash, in that case. | [00:33] |
mircea_popescu | by creating one. | [00:33] |
ThickAsThieves | Hearn is the kinda guy that tells Amazon they should do drone delivery system | [00:33] |
mircea_popescu | ThickAsThieves no, that's what he pretends to be. | [00:33] |
mircea_popescu | otherwise, he's the anti-snowden. | [00:33] |
mircea_popescu | benkay worth a read in any case. | [00:34] |
benkay | doubtless | [00:34] |
ThickAsThieves | Hearn at least hates Mastercoin | [00:34] |
ThickAsThieves | he has that going for him | [00:34] |
ThickAsThieves | is Mastercoin and Open Transactions the same guy? | [00:34] |
BingoBoingo | benkay: You may be able to fork and earlier version of BitcoinJ. Whatever runs Multibit 0.5.11 seems... The least bad SPV option. SatoshiDice had been running off of an older BitcoinJ for quite some time. | [00:35] |

benkay | this punk thing was cool when kdrake put his together. auctionpunk is just shameless derping. | [00:36] |
mircea_popescu | this will be a trending topic. "hey guise remember me ? i donated 0.35 btc to your project in 2010. | [00:37] |
mircea_popescu | meanwhile i lost all my btc playing dice sites and being scammed on cantina marketplace | [00:37] |
mircea_popescu | but since btc is now 100000000 billionz | [00:37] |
mircea_popescu | can i have my donation back and be like a rich guy ?" | [00:37] |

mircea_popescu | "cocksuckers coming to bitcoin" more like it. | [00:39] |
BingoBoingo | ThickAsThieves: Basically the difference is Open Transactions guy started his thing in 2012 and pretty much only knotwork uses it. Mastercoin guy announed his thing in 2013 and... Profit! | [00:39] |
ThickAsThieves | why dont they just mate? | [00:40] |

kakobrekla | but i guess the collateral damage is too great. | [01:43] |
herbijudlestoids | to draw a normal distribution youd need to eliminate points from the dataseries, to kill off the tails | [01:43] |
kakobrekla | but i can make up any arbitrary new center of the gauss | [01:44] |
herbijudlestoids | and lets say whatever plan you come up with has an unintended consequence which leads to a vol spike, fat tails again :P | [01:44] |

Duffer1 | chocked full of comedy | [02:58] |
dub | lol | [02:58] |
BingoBoingo | Dogecoin and Business Insider were made for each other. | [02:59] |
mircea_popescu | Duffer1 "how to spend money you don't have to pay people nobody reads to say ridiculously stupid shit which is how they got to not be read in the first place" ? | [02:59] |
mircea_popescu | we've long solved this problem really. | [02:59] |
mircea_popescu | you take two professional joggers and dress them up in facebook polo shirts. | [03:00] |
herbijudlestoids | hey Duffer1: on your advice i made the thing into a blog post...aside from a kind word from jurov the response was pretty underwhelming :P http://bitquant.blogspot.com.au/2014/02/just-dice-kelly-criterion-sensitivity.html | [03:00] |
mircea_popescu | " That's a lot to pay for a single Bitcoin for someone just entering the market. " | [03:01] |
dub | this is why we ignore australia | [03:01] |
mircea_popescu | seriously, this is what they write now. | [03:01] |
pankkake | "Money, like every commodity, works best when the supply can adjust efficiently to the demand." that is EXACTLY bernankoin | [03:01] |
pankkake | doge is still inflating less each year | [03:01] |
pankkake | in percent | [03:01] |
mircea_popescu | pankkake it's fascinating how they completely gloss over the part where one group (the scammers behind it) stole the resources of the rest of the people involved (every idiot that bought some, mined some, or pumped it up until two days ago) | [03:02] |
mircea_popescu | this happens, of course, tol ALSO be exactly how "normal" fiat currencies like the dollar operate. | [03:02] |
mircea_popescu | fuck you granpa, so you've worked for thirty years to make the us work ? here's some inflation. enjoy your fixed income. | [03:02] |
mircea_popescu | and the fact that this will continue happening i nthe future, arbitrarily, is like... splendeed. | [03:03] |
nubbins` | lel | [03:03] |
herbijudlestoids | its worse than that mircea_popescu because not all granpas get it equal | [03:03] |
nubbins` | whenever bill nye mentions science, he makes a gesture that indicates he's talking about things that happen outside the building he's in | [03:04] |
mircea_popescu | ofcourse. | [03:04] |
herbijudlestoids | if you started on the fixed income 10y ago, much better than 5y ago | [03:04] |
Duffer1 | herbijudlestoids sorry to hear that mate, do you plan to keep up with the blogging? | [03:04] |
dignork | somebody wishes to co-rent with me seedbox account? it's 14EU/mo, but I want to pay only half of it. | [03:04] |
dignork | lol, wrong window | [03:04] |
herbijudlestoids | Duffer1: i am thinking of writing a piece on the "market implied EPS growth rate" of MPOE, but want to verify the data that i can see on btcalpha | [03:04] |
Duffer1 | i don't know if the audience for that manner of analysis is here yet in bitcoinland, but i bet it will be sometime | [03:05] |
kakobrekla | pankkake how do bailouts work? | [03:06] |
herbijudlestoids | well, i did implement one of my simple mean reversion models for MPOE too, maybe a "trade this and get rich quick" blog post will be more persuasive :P | [03:06] |
Duffer1 | yea lol that'd do it, even if your blog was hokus pokus magic it'd still be popular | [03:07] |
herbijudlestoids | im not doing this for an audience or anything, its all a matter of incidental curiosity, but i thought your suggestion was nice :) | [03:07] |
mike_c | herbijudlestoids: you have a question about the data on btcalpha? | [03:08] |
mircea_popescu | did you just stick with braindamaged blogspot and then whine that nobody seems to have noticed ? | [03:08] |

mircea_popescu | there's an entire rpc boondoogle. | [04:35] |
antephialtic | antephialtic: well, in that case I'm living in a state of sin anyway because velocity is traditionally computed from output and money supply. The idea that one can measure it empirically is not really seen in mainstream economics, as far as I can tell from a brief review of the literature | [04:35] |
ron- | it was worth doing | [04:35] |
ron- | 1.5 hrs maybe | [04:35] |

mircea_popescu | antephialtic the problem, as BingoBoingo pointed out to you, is that in your model the greatest economic activity will occur whenever a major holder moves cold wallets. | [04:36] |

ozbot | 2 Oscar winners join TV adaptation of The Book of Negroes - Toronto - CBC News | [04:37] |
antephialtic | yes, I'm still thinking about a better way to measure velocity. If a good one is found it would be possible to create an altcoin with an algorithmic central bank that adjusts the block reward dynamically to target a certain output growth. | [04:37] |
nubbins` | kakobrekla ^ | [04:37] |

mircea_popescu | think about for a minute : i could hijack your bank's printing press just by moving my coins around ? sweet moses on a stick, this is like USD 2.0 | [04:39] |
antephialtic | yes, I agree that the concept has major game theoretic issues. But a coin that solved this issue would be useful primarily as a medium of exchange, rather than as a store of value. | [04:40] |

herbijudlestoids | :P | [04:48] |

mircea_popescu | nubbins` did you dyslexia there ? | [04:49] |
nubbins` | er, sorry, yes | [04:49] |
nubbins` | the opposite | [04:50] |
mircea_popescu | aha k. | [04:50] |
nubbins` | :( | [04:50] |
nubbins` | i don't get it | [04:50] |
herbijudlestoids | mircea_popescu: try this one on for size, his articles are quite long but IMHO absolutely worth it (there is a part 2 if you find it interesting enough) http://fofoa.blogspot.com.au/2011/11/moneyness.html | [04:50] |
mircea_popescu | kay. | [04:50] |
nubbins` | inflation refers to good increasing in price | [04:50] |
nubbins` | not necessarily because of an expansion of the money supply | [04:50] |
nubbins` | although that's usually the cause | [04:50] |
asciilifeform | nubbins`: or, more subtly, failing to decrease in price. | [04:51] |
* | Nadia_Comaneci has quit (Ping timeout: 245 seconds) | [04:51] |
nubbins` | sure, yes. | [04:51] |
mircea_popescu | nubbins` inflation has nothing to do with price. | [04:51] |
asciilifeform | (when applicable - 'moore's law' and sequelae, etc) | [04:51] |
nubbins` | but x bitcoins buys more goods over time | [04:51] |
mircea_popescu | inflation is a discussion of monetary base. | [04:51] |
mircea_popescu | if tomorrow i invent a new way to make cakes, and cake prices drop 95% | [04:52] |
mircea_popescu | this does not mean there's been inflation in the currency | [04:52] |
mircea_popescu | (perhaps in the cakes, i guess) | [04:52] |
herbijudlestoids | ^ | [04:52] |
nubbins` | sure, but inflation refers to the general increase | [04:52] |
chipug | asshole scams me for 1.6btc > denies it > emails for the new website url = areyoufuckingshittingme? feel like emailing back saying sure thing fuckwit, url costs 1.6BTC | [04:52] |
nubbins` | not any one specific item | [04:52] |
mircea_popescu | of the monetary base. | [04:52] |
asciilifeform | but if the crown decides to crank up the printing press until cakes cost the same... | [04:52] |

mircea_popescu | prices aren't a reference point for inflation tho, this is like saying she's a good lay cause she's a redhead. | [04:53] |
herbijudlestoids | nubbins`: the modern definition of inflation is bullshit, its hedonistically adjusted and the general price includes all sorts of nonsense, which is completely disparately defined across countries | [04:53] |
mircea_popescu | people say it all the time, but what of it. | [04:53] |
nubbins` | sure | [04:53] |
nubbins` | i can't speak to past definitions, but everything i'm reading says that the thing which is inflating is the price of goods | [04:54] |
herbijudlestoids | soooo...defining inflation as a general price level increase is extremely fuzzy | [04:54] |
mircea_popescu | well you're reading business insider then | [04:54] |
nubbins` | heh | [04:54] |
nubbins` | hey now | [04:54] |
* | Kushed has quit (Ping timeout: 250 seconds) | [04:55] |
nubbins` | okay, so if inflationary/deflationary is out | [04:55] |
nubbins` | how do you verbally differentiate between a currency where purchasing power increases over time, and one where it decreases? | [04:56] |
nubbins` | (no saucy answers plz) | [04:56] |
mircea_popescu | purchasing power in what sense ? | [04:56] |
mircea_popescu | as opposed to another ? | [04:56] |
nubbins` | say, herpcoins where it's cheaper to buy an apple tomorrow than today | [04:57] |
nubbins` | or derpdollars where it's cheaper to buy the apple today | [04:57] |
herbijudlestoids | also purchasing power is a better proxy than inflation, because you can have inflation where the purchasing power of a dollar goes up, but also inflatoin where the purchasing power of a dollar goes down | [04:57] |
mircea_popescu | nubbins` what's wrong with just saying "herpcoins has increased ppp and derpd's has decreased ppp ?" | [04:58] |
nubbins` | i don't know how much apple i get, that's what's wrong | [04:58] |
herbijudlestoids | ^ | [04:58] |
mircea_popescu | wait what ?! | [04:58] |
nubbins` | haha | [04:58] |
mircea_popescu | these are macro discussions | [04:58] |
mircea_popescu | why do you expect they do anything to any one apple ? | [04:58] |
nubbins` | how many apples are in the bag i'm buying, whatever | [04:59] |
herbijudlestoids | then what he is saying is correct nubbins` | [04:59] |
herbijudlestoids | because you are only asking about PP, not inflation! | [04:59] |
nubbins` | sure | [04:59] |
mircea_popescu | for that matter, how do you know it's the currency ? | [05:00] |
herbijudlestoids | ^ | [05:00] |
mircea_popescu | maybe derpland has a bumper apple crop and herpfields a shortage. | [05:00] |
mircea_popescu | maybe the one yearly boat taking apples from d to h sunk that year | [05:00] |
mircea_popescu | i mean wtf, how did you end up pinning the world on the currency ? | [05:00] |
nubbins` | well until five minutes ago i laboured under the impression that a 'deflationary currency' was one where the purchasing power increased over time (i.e. the cost of goods decreases) | [05:00] |
herbijudlestoids | i wonder if i invited FOFOA to chat here he would come | [05:00] |
mircea_popescu | ok, but this is a very naive approach | [05:00] |
nubbins` | but i think i've just never thought this through | [05:01] |
mircea_popescu | herbijudlestoids so invite him | [05:01] |
nubbins` | who's to say purchasing power is constant over time, etc | [05:01] |
mircea_popescu | nubbins` do you think on average bigger cars are faster ? | [05:01] |
nubbins` | hm | [05:01] |
herbijudlestoids | nubbins`: it is not constant. varies in a nonstationary path | [05:01] |
mircea_popescu | i mean to some very general degree this'd perhaps be true... | [05:01] |
mircea_popescu | at least within some margins... | [05:01] |
mircea_popescu | but srsly. they're not that related. | [05:01] |

herbijudlestoids | bitcoin does not have a fixed supply, i am sure if the price goes up to $1,000,000,000,000 some supply will come out of the woodwork | [05:22] |
mircea_popescu | there's a Department of Retarded Quotes somewhere, fucking shit up. | [05:22] |
jborkl | Ha, ripple is now some type of retarded charity now | [05:22] |

chipug | thats the one! thanks! | [05:23] |
mircea_popescu | bash.bitcoin-assets.com ye heretic | [05:23] |
asciilifeform | if by 'out of the woodwork' one means 'ECDSA crypto-break using Advanced Magic'... | [05:23] |
mircea_popescu | herbijudlestoids HOW do you adjust for average iq | [05:23] |
mircea_popescu | there's no iq. | [05:23] |
herbijudlestoids | asciilifeform: i just meant, higher prices can entice supply | [05:23] |
jborkl | Well you have to divide IQ by # of sock puppet accts | [05:23] |
jborkl | So it is almost 0 | [05:23] |
herbijudlestoids | therefore the supply is not fixed, its just constrained by price | [05:24] |
herbijudlestoids | (like gold :P) | [05:24] |
mircea_popescu | herbijudlestoids they really go over the deep end with this "fixed" bs. | [05:24] |
mircea_popescu | as if the total heat differential i nthe universe weren't ALSO fixed. | [05:24] |

asciilifeform | (horrified author) | [05:45] |
mircea_popescu | disqus is nullrouted onthis system | [05:46] |
asciilifeform | Amit Sahai • a day ago | [05:46] |
asciilifeform | I am a co-author of the research quoted in the article. I realize it is likely pointless to write this comment in an Internet forum, but let me attempt to clarify the situation, in the hope that some thoughtful participants will find it useful. Please note: I will not be monitoring this forum in the future. If you are a researcher, please feel free to contact me. | [05:46] |
asciilifeform | 1) The title is misleading: secure obfuscation does not necessarily create "unhackable" software, whatever that means. | [05:46] |
asciilifeform | 2) Secure obfuscation is a mathematical term of art. It is unfortunate that the word "obfuscation" has an ordinary meaning that is very different than what we mean. An analogy might be the word "countable" which for mathematicians usually refers to infinite sets, while lay readers would likely not think this way. | [05:46] |
asciilifeform | 3) The right way to think of what secure obfuscation allows is to create, *under many technical conditions*, software that has secrets built into it. These secrets are used by the software to compute output, and yet the secrets remain hidden even if an attacker obtains the entire machine-level code of the software, which of course the attacker could run and analyze. Thus the attacker would be able to *use* the | [05:46] |
asciilifeform | secrets only in the way that the software allows, but not recover these secrets in any way beyond that. | [05:46] |
nubbins` | but how do you have disqussions? | [05:46] |
asciilifeform | 4) In no direct way does secure obfuscation have anything to with DRM, software copy protection, etc. | [05:46] |
asciilifeform | 5) Obfuscation is really a terrible name, but unfortunately it is the mathematical term that has become widely used in the academic (non-hacker) community. | [05:46] |
asciilifeform | 6) All of this is based on mathematical computational assumptions, which may be proven false by future algorithmic advances. | [05:46] |
asciilifeform | - end quote | [05:46] |
asciilifeform | naturally, we have the boojum: '...the attacker would be able to *use* the secrets only in the way that the software allows...' | [05:47] |
mircea_popescu | turns out it wasn't pointless! | [05:47] |
asciilifeform | so let's say you have a homomorphic turd that signs arbitrary giblets with your key (which, for the sake of argument, assume cannot be extracted, as claimed) | [05:48] |
mircea_popescu | ok | [05:48] |
asciilifeform | and on top of that, is only willing to sign giblets beginning with 1. | [05:49] |
asciilifeform | so fine. i extract the turd and feed it whatever i like | [05:49] |
herbijudlestoids | giblets? :D | [05:49] |
mircea_popescu | it's a term of art. | [05:49] |
herbijudlestoids | no, i meant, would he like to feed his turd giblets :P | [05:50] |
asciilifeform | there is already a hard impossibility proof of turing-complete computation in a homomorphic turd. | [05:50] |
mircea_popescu | that there is. | [05:50] |
mircea_popescu | however! | [05:50] |
mircea_popescu | you wouldn't be necessarily running a compiler there | [05:50] |
asciilifeform | so you're stuck with some special-case exotica, that idiots will inevitably embed in conventional code. | [05:50] |
mircea_popescu | and the case of futzing non-recursively with data is not covered. | [05:50] |
asciilifeform | the whole field appears to be funded by the desperate 'media' conglomerates, who dream in their opium haze of unbreakable copy protection. | [05:51] |
mircea_popescu | that'll never work. | [05:51] |
asciilifeform | i live right outside of a big uni, whose comp sci dept. pisses out a never-ending supply of this crud. | [05:52] |
mircea_popescu | what may work tho is indeed code that does the function of cardano in software. | [05:52] |
asciilifeform | then the code is the key. | [05:52] |
mircea_popescu | well yes. | [05:52] |
asciilifeform | lift it, accomplish the same purpose. | [05:52] |
mircea_popescu | same is true of the hw cardano. | [05:52] |
asciilifeform | correct. | [05:52] |
mircea_popescu | so inasfar as that, it may be the case homomorphic software can be in fact written that protects the key say | [05:53] |
asciilifeform | anyone who wants 'software cardano' can grab 'gpg' today. | [05:53] |
mircea_popescu | but w/o a pw. | [05:53] |
mircea_popescu | make it be automated. | [05:53] |
mircea_popescu | i'm not saying this is practically useful. | [05:54] |
mircea_popescu | but it is mathematically interesting | [05:54] |
mircea_popescu | or properly said, computer-scientifically. which is math anyway but w/e | [05:54] |
asciilifeform | the building blocks of homomorphic crypto (say, the 'millionaires protocol') are certainly interesting, not only in the mathematical but practical sense. | [05:54] |
mircea_popescu | well ya | [05:54] |
asciilifeform | but for the subject of the article, one is left to wonder what problem is actually being solved | [05:55] |
mircea_popescu | the article is in wired. | [05:55] |
mircea_popescu | forgeddaboutit. | [05:55] |
mircea_popescu | the problem itself tho, "make me gpg which keeps my key safge and uses no pw", is not trivial. | [05:55] |
mircea_popescu | anyone solving this'd feel that particular elation. | [05:55] |
* | bloctoc (~bloctoc@c-50-168-9-127.hsd1.ca.comcast.net) has joined #bitcoin-assets | [05:55] |
asciilifeform | if it 'keeps key safe' via the whole proggy becoming the key, you haven't accomplished much | [05:56] |
mircea_popescu | if the whole proggy is the key then it;s not safe ipso definitio | [05:56] |
asciilifeform | i venture to say that the actual goal of general-purpose (or whatever approximation is possible) homomorphic crypto is quite different. | [05:56] |
asciilifeform | but nobody seems willing to say it publicly | [05:56] |
asciilifeform | so i'll mention it here. | [05:56] |
asciilifeform | certain people would /love/ a mathematically-impenetrable boobytrap. | [05:57] |
asciilifeform | that is, code with genuinely-hidden functionality | [05:57] |
mircea_popescu | herbijudlestoids if you care, http://fofoa.blogspot.ro/2010/07/debtors-and-savers.html is formally incorrect on the listing of romania | [05:57] |
mircea_popescu | ask the guy what his research is for that list he made sometime. | [05:58] |
mircea_popescu | asciilifeform both people could use this. | [05:58] |
asciilifeform | so, worked example: | [05:58] |
asciilifeform | a 'soft pgp' that appears to work fine, but when you encrypt a message to a certain pubkey, the message becomes 'eat shit and die' | [05:59] |
asciilifeform | and this fact not being deducible from the code. | [05:59] |
mircea_popescu | or a soft obamacare, which appears to work fine, but when your name is obama an email is sent to a certain address with your vaginal probe pics. | [05:59] |
mircea_popescu | technology helps neither side. | [06:00] |
asciilifeform | correct. ideally one should like to be on the 'correct end of the barrel' for this one. | [06:00] |

asciilifeform | in principle, 'all blades have two edges,' etc. but in practice, the one and only objective of the folks funding homomorphic is a kind of satanic opposite of my purpose outlined in 'don't blame the mice' | [06:11] |
asciilifeform | they would like to create (and then mandate) computing machinery that cannot be audited for security even in principle. | [06:11] |

mircea_popescu | Dimsler__ no actually these are good. | [06:13] |
mircea_popescu | asciilifeform true. | [06:13] |
herbijudlestoids | so the inflation rate went from >40% to <10% | [06:13] |
herbijudlestoids | err <20% | [06:13] |
mircea_popescu | herbijudlestoids yes. and the early spikes aren't exactly easy money either. | [06:13] |
mircea_popescu | romania had no consumer sector at the time | [06:13] |

dudesir | mircea is the 30 BTC fee going to change eventually? | [07:12] |
mircea_popescu | yeah. | [07:12] |
mircea_popescu | it was 20 up until glbse croaked. | [07:12] |
mircea_popescu | it'll go to 50 eventually. | [07:13] |
dudesir | lol I was assuming downwards, I suppose MPEX is only for those who are already rich... | [07:13] |

chipug | everything increases with time, even waistlines | [07:14] |
herbijudlestoids | dudesir: its an exchange, do you have an account with the CME or NYSE? you have an account with your broker, who has a seat (or equiv) at the exchange | [07:14] |
Namworld | MPEx doesn't need more members and doesn't offer much support. | [07:14] |
Namworld | It's designed to work like any stock exchange. | [07:14] |
Namworld | Not for everyone to sign up on. | [07:14] |
Namworld | Only large brokers and large institutions. | [07:15] |
Namworld | People with lower investments can use a broker like CoinBR to trade MPEx | [07:15] |
dudesir | Does it cost 30000$ to get an acct at nyse? | [07:15] |
Namworld | Much more than that. | [07:15] |

dudesir | Ok, I think I understand, NYSE is like an underlying exchange and brokers are on top of it? | [07:16] |
mircea_popescu | herbijudlestoids was about 1.5mn per year iirc. | [07:16] |
herbijudlestoids | and not just that but its not like you can just buy a seat at the NYSE, someone has to die or want to sell their seat | [07:17] |

ThickAsThieves | Former Minnesota governor and pro wrestler Jesse Ventura is currently on the press circuit around the launch of his talk show Off the Grid, but only from an undisclosed location in Mexico, safe from the prying camera-eyes of drones.

ThickAsThieves | or whatever | [17:53] |
mircea_popescu | yes, but here's the problem : | [17:53] |
mircea_popescu | he could say something intelligent that'd work just as well | [17:54] |
mircea_popescu | bar that, he could say something unstupid that worked just as well | [17:54] |
ThickAsThieves | if he werent pandering to anti-intellectuals maybe | [17:54] |
mircea_popescu | his choice to say something retarded i HIS | [17:54] |

mircea_popescu | punkman1 this is true. | [18:00] |
mircea_popescu | the thing is, one of the fundamental business strategy mistakes google fell into is | [18:00] |
mircea_popescu | that it picked "fast" rather than "correctly" | [18:01] |
punkman1 | like I wanted to put commoncrawl data on AWS and run my own queries, but fuck it if it's gonna cost me $20 per query | [18:01] |
