benkay | you're | [00:31] |
benkay | http://plantlust.com | [00:31] |
ThickAsThieves | you build carts? | [00:31] |
dub | you fuck plants? | [00:32] |
truffles | you're curious? | [00:32] |
ThickAsThieves | well i'm vegan at least | [00:32] |
truffles | oh no | [00:32] |
benkay | we dragged the frontend kicking and screaming into 2014, dragged an ancient django application from 1.2 to 1.4, delivered myriad performance improvements totalling in excess of 10x across the whole stack, and implemented distributed work queues to decrease the risk of large data processing jobs | [00:32] |
ThickAsThieves | it looks nice | [00:33] |
mike_c | why 1.4 instead of 1.6? | [00:33] |
ThickAsThieves | i wouldnt even feel scammed if i sent them money | [00:33] |
ThickAsThieves | hmm it's not even a cart | [00:34] |
benkay | the next development iteration is going to focus on putting a 'buy' button next to each plant, redesigning the remaining pages that look like they're from 2006, taking people's money when they do click buy and turning into a plant on their doorstep, using the 56+ nurseries the site owner already has relationships with for distributed development | [00:34] |
ThickAsThieves | oops | [00:34] |
ThickAsThieves | ah | [00:34] |

KRS-One | fuck plants, they are boring. | [00:34] |
benkay | distributed fulfillment | [00:34] |
mike_c | boring is good. no scooping poop. | [00:35] |
truffles | plants take work man | [00:35] |
Duffer1 | infinite scroll would be nice | [00:35] |
benkay | 1.4 was necessary for some particular features, i forget what precisely. chose to not go all the way to 1.6 to mitigate risk. | [00:35] |
benkay | oh yeah, did i mention the stack automation and rearchitecture? | [00:35] |
Duffer1 | it's a great looking sight though, i love the homepage | [00:36] |
benkay | there was enough risk in this project that 1.6 made me uncomfortable and i stopped the upgrade at the release that bought us the features we needed. | [00:36] |
truffles | they should have a subcategory "exotic plants" | [00:36] |
benkay | thanks! the owner did the wires and we implemented it. | [00:36] |

mike_c | i upgraded to 1.6 recently without many bumps. but i think i went from 1.4, so less risk | [00:36] |

ThickAsThieves | benkay, have you ever done anything in online education software | [00:39] |
mike_c | bitcointalk is unusable. if only they had thousands of btc to improve the site with. | [00:39] |
benkay | i've played with plenty. | [00:40] |
benkay | is there something specific to the online education software domain that's not applicable to general webappery? | [00:40] |
ThickAsThieves | nope | [00:40] |
benkay | what are you curious about? | [00:41] |
ThickAsThieves | just having a bad run with the team on it | [00:41] |
ThickAsThieves | and the two before that | [00:41] |
benkay | ouch | [00:41] |
benkay | what's the stack? | [00:41] |
ThickAsThieves | i'm pretty far removed from it now | [00:41] |
ThickAsThieves | it's LAMP | [00:41] |
truffles | http://plantlust.com/plants/solanum-muricatum/ wonder how this tastes , looks interesting | [00:41] |

ThickAsThieves | PHP | [00:42] |
benkay | phpbrekla's your man for that | [00:42] |
ThickAsThieves | he'd probly cry at this code | [00:43] |
dub | I heard tux might be in the market | [00:43] |
benkay | company line on php is "we're only interested in the project if the client is prepared to make a large investment in moving away from php" | [00:43] |
benkay | that said we can always manage a project and assemble a team for the right price. | [00:43] |
benkay | there is a php fee tho :( | [00:43] |
ThickAsThieves | the investment, in my eyes, would be in a team that can be counted on and is proficient | [00:44] |
ThickAsThieves | the PHP is incidental | [00:44] |
pankkake | I used to be in a php shop, but we did pass twice on a project that was simply… impossible to comprehend | [00:44] |
ThickAsThieves | of course cost determines all in the end | [00:44] |
ThickAsThieves | they are finally installing the new version of the software onto a live server this week | [00:45] |
ThickAsThieves | after like 18mos | [00:45] |
benkay | ka yikes | [00:45] |
benkay | first thing we typically do is set up infrastructure, CI and low-friction deploys. | [00:45] |
ThickAsThieves | and I had bigger plans for it, so it needs ongoing work | [00:45] |

benkay | my ass | [00:47] |

ThickAsThieves | benkay i was considering a business path of: 1. Implement and use it with this school, work out bugs, add anything obviously needed 2. Approach several clients in other training fields (Hazardous Goods Shipping for example) and offer hosted solutions, making the software cater to more industries 3. Convert to SaaS DIY Training Lesson Builder | [00:49] |
ThickAsThieves | it's been a while since i looked into possible competition though | [00:50] |
benkay | sounds like a great model | [00:50] |
benkay | eh i wouldn't worry about competition. instead, focus on landing clients, making them happy and taking their money. | [00:50] |

assbot | [HAVELOCK] [CBTC] 7386 @ 0.00012998 = 0.96 BTC [+] {4} | [03:33] |
herbijudlestoids | to me it looks like they have been clearing the smaller transactions | [03:33] |
herbijudlestoids | that is why the avg withdrawal transaction amount is going down | [03:33] |
sypher_ | herbijudlestoids, i'm just a noob so i may have completely wrong thoughts. | [03:34] |
sypher_ | I'm thinking that big ones are playing to make it go down so they can buy in cheaper, having it rebound later | [03:35] |
herbijudlestoids | well they can already buy it on bitstamp or other exchanges for significantly cheaper than the mtgox price | [03:35] |
sypher_ | not talking mtgox | [03:35] |
sypher_ | looking at btce and bitstamp | [03:36] |
herbijudlestoids | err no, i meant opinions on the withdrawal transactoins...nevermind | [03:36] |
sypher_ | sorry, told you, noobish. | [03:36] |
sypher_ | :) | [03:36] |
sypher_ | was just here to try and understand that pattern there ;) | [03:37] |
* | benkay has quit (Ping timeout: 250 seconds) | [03:37] |
herbijudlestoids | which pattern where | [03:37] |
* | moneycat has quit (Remote host closed the connection) | [03:37] |
sypher_ | btce, big sell orders that aren't getting fulfilled, seems to me that many are panic selling under those and thats driving it down quite a bit | [03:38] |
* | moneycat (~moneycat@206.116.3.77) has joined #bitcoin-assets | [03:38] |
sypher_ | then the big sell order gets cancelled and put at a lower price, but not getting fulfilled... doing like that since 165 earlier. | [03:39] |
sypher_ | 765 sorry. | [03:39] |
herbijudlestoids | ignore the orders in the book | [03:39] |
herbijudlestoids | real volume hits the market directly | [03:39] |

herbijudlestoids | sypher_: my guess is its much simpler and that the price on the shitty exchanges is going down to match the price on the good exchanges | [03:41] |

nubbins` | obvious answer is correct one ;D | [03:42] |
sypher_ | haha. :) | [03:42] |
herbijudlestoids | the ones clearing transactions successfully, at high volume and with no regulatory issues | [03:42] |
herbijudlestoids | check the bid/ask spread to see which has the narrowest and most liquid spread | [03:42] |
sypher_ | seems like naming them is out of the etiquette here, sorry for the question, didn't know | [03:43] |

nubbins` | i kid | [03:43] |
herbijudlestoids | its not out of etiquette, i dunno for sure so im not gonna name a name | [03:43] |
Duffer1 | the point was there aren't any to name hehe | [03:43] |
nubbins` | implication is that there aren't good exchanges, just varying degrees of shitty | [03:43] |
herbijudlestoids | like i said, you can verify quantitatively by analysis of the bdi/ask spread | [03:43] |
sypher_ | ah, got you guys, thanks for the hand holding | [03:44] |
herbijudlestoids | on mtgox right now the spread is $5, bitfinex $0 bitstamp $2, btc $1 and icbit $4 | [03:45] |
herbijudlestoids | so i would just discard mtgox and icbit for analysis, concentrate on the liquidity of the spread for bitfinex and bitstamp | [03:45] |
herbijudlestoids | err s/btc/btce | [03:45] |
sypher_ | why excluding btce? | [03:45] |
sypher_ | i mean, why only bitfinex and bistamp, not btce? | [03:46] |
herbijudlestoids | ^ | [03:46] |
herbijudlestoids | i did include btce sorry, there was a typo | [03:46] |

herbijudlestoids | not so much physical coins as metal (i.e. fireproof) cold storage | [03:57] |

herbijudlestoids | punkman1: advantage over...a USB key? | [03:58] |

punkman1 | sure | [03:59] |
herbijudlestoids | sypher_: if you print it, ink fades, paper burns, etc | [03:59] |
herbijudlestoids | punkman1: well lets say i put 1,000 BTC into a USB key and encrypt it securely etc and then my house burns down | [03:59] |

sypher_ | nothing, just excited to see the troll box on BTCe with all the boys shouting ... i just wanna buy back in when its gonna stop fallin; exited at a loss some time ago. | [05:10] |
herbijudlestoids | what price did you want to buy at? | [05:11] |
sypher_ | 722 would be my target | [05:12] |
herbijudlestoids | why not do a options spread on MPex? short the 722 puts | [05:13] |
herbijudlestoids | and long whatever appropriately derisks you | [05:13] |
herbijudlestoids | price goes to 722 and you get exercised, if not collect premium | [05:14] |

sypher_ | you're way over my understanding grade. I'm at the 'buy low; sell high' phase; which i could translate in 'i'm an idiot'. :-) | [05:16] |
herbijudlestoids | options give you the right but not the obligation to long/short the underlying asset at a given strike price and date ...e.g the option to long BTCUSD at 1000 regardless of the price as of Jan 2014 | [05:17] |
assbot | [MPEX] [S.MPOE] 7400 @ 0.00086849 = 6.4268 BTC [+] | [05:18] |
herbijudlestoids | option to long is a call, option to short is a put. if you sell a put, youre selling the right for someone to short at a given price | [05:18] |
herbijudlestoids | so you sell someone the contract which gives them the right to short BTCUSD at 722. they will never exercise this contract unless the price is <= 722 | [05:18] |
KRS-One | heh thanks nubbins` | [05:19] |
nubbins` | :D | [05:19] |
KRS-One | oops | [05:19] |
herbijudlestoids | if the contract expires or the price doesnt go below 722, you get to keep the "premium", the cost of the contract you sold | [05:19] |
herbijudlestoids | if it does, then they exercise and short BTCUSD at 722, leaving you long BTCUSD at 722 | [05:19] |

herbijudlestoids | i dun know if MPEX supports naked short the contracts, looks like they only allow you to do what they call a SPLIT order, otherwise known as an options spread, so you short the 722 puts and long some distant strike call, like 1000 calls. | [05:20] |
* | benkay (~user@174-25-38-9.ptld.qwest.net) has joined #bitcoin-assets | [05:21] |
nubbins` | sorry for the stupid question, but i'm exceptionally thick with this sort of thing | [05:21] |
nubbins` | that orgy of puts that was purchased the other day | [05:21] |
nubbins` | purchaser is expecting btc to fall below ~500 or whatever it was? | [05:21] |
herbijudlestoids | its impossible to tell really | [05:22] |
herbijudlestoids | they could be insuring long contracts on another exchange or other options | [05:22] |
herbijudlestoids | maybe they hold 1000BTC on bitstamp and want to insure against the price going below 500 | [05:22] |
nubbins` | slightly different question, purchaser profits if btc falls below 500? | [05:22] |
herbijudlestoids | depends entirely on implied vol | [05:23] |
nubbins` | just based on those actions | [05:23] |
herbijudlestoids | if the price goes to 500 but IV when puts were purchased was at 50% and goes down to 20% then the puts might still be worthless | [05:23] |
benkay | herbijudlestoids: no naked shorts on MPEx. | [05:23] |
herbijudlestoids | value of option includes delta, theta, vega etc | [05:23] |
sypher_ | herbijudlestoids, thanks for the explanation, I'm trying to get my head around it | [05:24] |
herbijudlestoids | nubbins`: buying puts tends to be more of a call on IV than anything else...term structure also plays a part in profit, take a look at the NYSE listed VXX ETF versus VIX for an example of what term structure being in contango can do to a rolling IV long | [05:25] |
dexX7 | huh wasn't it the other way around aka. this guy sold puts? | [05:25] |

nubbins` | afaik mpoe uses bond deposits to back options | [05:26] |
nubbins` | although i'm barely at the level of understanding what i just said | [05:26] |
herbijudlestoids | no i think youre correct, but i dont know anything about it specifically | [05:27] |

herbijudlestoids | yea | [05:27] |
dexX7 | soo.. if i understand correctly, when the price goes up, this guy wins, right? | [05:28] |
dexX7 | just to be sure hehe | [05:28] |
nubbins` | no idea anymore | [05:29] |
herbijudlestoids | so the trader is shorting BTCUSD 500 puts | [05:29] |
herbijudlestoids | the trade is a bet on IV being high and leveling off or going down, and that they wont get exercised (i.e. the price wont go below 500) | [05:29] |

herbijudlestoids | if BTCUSD goes to 1200 in 1s then IV will go up and the value of the puts will increase commensurately...when puts are fare OTM (out of the money) then their intrinsic value is mostly comprised of IV | [05:30] |

herbijudlestoids | am i making sense? | [05:31] |
herbijudlestoids | the value of the option isnt dependent just on price | [05:32] |
nubbins` | you're talking about a foot above my head here, but the failing is mine, not yours | [05:32] |
sypher_ | nubbins`, think about how i feel; knowing that you're a whole 2 legs over my head. :-) | [05:33] |
nubbins` | i'm a tall man :D | [05:33] |
herbijudlestoids | there is no set in stone method to calculate the value of an option. there is the black scholes model which has its proponents and detractors. regardless of which model you use, there is a bunch of standard inputs called the greeks | [05:33] |
nubbins` | sure | [05:33] |
* | kyle_torpey has quit (Quit: Leaving) | [05:34] |
herbijudlestoids | delta, vega, theta, rho | [05:34] |
herbijudlestoids | there is also some others like lambda and gamma, depending on your model | [05:34] |
* | koin3d (3246306d@gateway/web/freenode/ip.50.70.48.109) has joined #bitcoin-assets | [05:34] |
herbijudlestoids | now aside from all of this, there is the current market price that the options are worth | [05:35] |
herbijudlestoids | lets stick with the example of a JAN 2015 $2000 BTCUSD CALL | [05:35] |
nubbins` | okay | [05:35] |
* | truffles (~truffles@dsl-vsabrasgw1-54fb64-140.dhcp.inet.fi) has joined #bitcoin-assets | [05:35] |
herbijudlestoids | the market price of the options "imply" what the market is considering the value of those greeks will be at settlement | [05:35] |
nubbins` | the greeks are seismographs, for lack of a better analogy, correct? | [05:36] |
herbijudlestoids | does that make sense? the market price of any given option might be very far away from what your model reckons it should be | [05:36] |
assbot | [MPEX] [S.MPOE] 10050 @ 0.00086849 = 8.7283 BTC [+] | [05:36] |
nubbins` | yes, sure | [05:36] |
herbijudlestoids | so the market is implying, forecasting, trying to get the best price for what they think the options are worth | [05:36] |
herbijudlestoids | the forecast isnt just for where the price of BTCUSD will be relativeto $2000 in a years time | [05:37] |
herbijudlestoids | its also forecasting vega, delta etc | [05:37] |
herbijudlestoids | some of the greeks are numeric values that you can simply calculate, like theta, which is the time value of the option. | [05:37] |
herbijudlestoids | depending how far ITM/OTM (in the money or out of the money) the option is depends on what the market price of the option actually consists of | [05:38] |
herbijudlestoids | for example, if the option is far OTM (e.g. the price of BTCUSD is $1 and the call is for $2000) then the value of the option will consist mostly of vega and theta (which is decaying as time goes on) | [05:38] |
* | CryptFox has quit (Quit: Leaving) | [05:39] |
nubbins` | is it fair to say that the price of a given option indicates not only an expectation of price, but of volatility? | [05:39] |
herbijudlestoids | like i said, depends how far ITM/OTM | [05:39] |
* | nubbins` nods | [05:39] |
benkay | yes. that is a core valuation principle. | [05:39] |
benkay | sometimes a heavier factor than other times. | [05:39] |
herbijudlestoids | now options have some synthetic equivalency | [05:40] |
sypher_ | uhm. | [05:40] |
sypher_ | herbijudlestoids, nubbins`, got an account at gox? | [05:41] |
herbijudlestoids | i.e. shorting a $2000 call has the same/similar payoff profile (at settlement) to long $2000 put | [05:41] |
herbijudlestoids | sypher_: no | [05:41] |
herbijudlestoids | i own 0.02BTC | [05:41] |

herbijudlestoids | nubbins`: need more or make sense now? | [05:44] |
nubbins` | herbijudlestoids, that clarifies things a bit, but i think what i really need is to visit the library | [05:44] |
herbijudlestoids | nubbins`: there is this awesome blogger bill luby, he does vixandmore.blogspot.com ...hardcore options geekery explained for the masses. | [05:45] |
herbijudlestoids | mostly for regular markets but its all the same maths | [05:45] |
nubbins` | ah, like the Scientific American of finance | [05:46] |
herbijudlestoids | i actually got a kickass long vol model for NYSE index ETFs, probly wouldnt work on MPex | [05:47] |
mike_c | nubbins, options are entirely about volatility. option pricing is "known", with volatility being the only variable in the equation. | [05:47] |
herbijudlestoids | nubbins`: one last point is that you can build positions that are much more dependent on IV than price, for example if i buy a call and buy a put for the same strike and expiry | [05:48] |

nubbins` | what one is to do is to suggest that the head gets cut off it before it gets out of hand | [18:12] |
mircea_popescu | in a more general sense : as tempting as it may be, you can't allocate responsibility to actions by the "effect" they have on people. | [18:12] |

mircea_popescu | " rnadom dope dealers because this guy was a dope fiend" | [18:13] |

mircea_popescu | nubbins` i'm saying that the interest in otherwise uninteresting subject matter is driven by otherwise underemployed, bored and inept kids. | [18:36] |

herbijudlestoids | nubbins`: i think its very easy to not bring anything back to flatland...hard work to "bring something back"...to learn a lesson | [18:45] |
mircea_popescu | ow fuck me. there is no lesson | [18:46] |
nubbins` | ^ that's the lesson | [18:46] |
mircea_popescu | incredible what a broken fucking tool the mind is. | [18:46] |
nubbins` | on that we can agree | [18:46] |
nubbins` | herbijudlestoids: well, it's just as easy to have a bunch of fun than to learn something | [18:47] |
mircea_popescu | romanian makes the distinction between fun and diversion | [18:47] |
mircea_popescu | in that it calls both "diversion" | [18:47] |
mircea_popescu | i think it actually serves better than calling both "fun" | [18:47] |
nubbins` | just because you're in your desk, in school, doesn't mean you're doing math problems instead of doodling monsters | [18:47] |
nubbins` | just because you can no longer distinguish the border between your mind and the outside world doesn't mean you're having an epiphany | [18:48] |
nubbins` | but, y'know, some kids actually do the math, and are sort of confused when someone tells them "school is just for horsing around anyway" | [18:49] |
herbijudlestoids | mircea_popescu: i learned about many personal flaws and managed to correct some "in flatland", permanently. other flaws, still there | [18:49] |
nubbins` | mircea_popescu: well sure, lots of diversions aren't particularly fun :D | [18:49] |
mircea_popescu | herbijudlestoids lemme tell you a story. a freind of mine had a dumbass father. | [18:50] |
mircea_popescu | one day that dumbass father destroyed the family car, by the process of pushing the gas all the way with the hand brake engaged. | [18:50] |

mircea_popescu | yeah, but these are enthusiasts we're discussing here. | [21:58] |
BingoBoingo | Rpi might actually be an interesting thing if maybe they would have went MIPS (or FPGA and pick a core of choice) and offered ECC Ram | [21:58] |
asciilifeform | ras.pi, for anyone who doesn't have one lying around, is a (relatively) cheap arm box. | [21:58] |
mircea_popescu | better ship a version w/o case and w/o daughterboard. | [21:58] |
asciilifeform | commonly sold at hobby electronics outfits | [21:58] |
pankkake | 1MPGRCrbib3aFGtTCLF5nADZcLEAgdTu7E just got 500000.00 ATC! | [21:58] |
asciilifeform | broadcom inc. tempted them with at-cost cpu offer | [21:59] |

punkman1 | well tiny computers, open source, it's kinda connected | [22:00] |
mircea_popescu | yeah, but what i'm saying is : in this particular case probably cheaper and better for the free world to subvert than to replace | [22:00] |

[22:00] |
asciilifeform | most of the boards coreboot supports are full-size pc mobos | [22:00] |
