No way. Our generous but lazy admin haven't even show up today :-)
Yeah, note the UK part ;-)
Well, ok then. |

Are you trying to sell some of your virtual hosts on the Super Dimension Fortress (sdf.org) ?
If so, this is not cool, man.

Well, it's not that great once you make a zoom on specific areas. There is only one node in London, for instance.
I actually think that those marks are way too big on the global mark. This gives a false feeling.

Why not, go ahead.
SDF would be neater through.
I don't like talking on SDF actually. Anyway, I can't use freeshell.org for this project, since it has only openssl 0.9.8q and I don't have arpa rights that I may need to compile a more recent version. It's also possible that even with arpa rights I couldn't compile. What can you suggest ? I'm on IRC right now, on freenode #bitcoin-dev |

So OK, write me to rider at SDF e-mail, we'll see what can be done.
Can't we do this here ? |

We just need to develop a resource intensive checkers game.... wait. WTF were we talking about?
OMG yes we could create a "chesscoin" : it would be a cryptocurrency where the proof of work would be the victory in a quick chess tournament between all nodes of the network. In order to have the tournament last only ten minutes, the speed of each games could be adjusted to the number of players. This would be so cool. |

énorme.
je pense que ce serait cool si c'était les rôles de l'homme et de la femme étaient inversés.
aussi une adresse correspond à une clef publique, pas privée.
Ouais je me suis aperçu de l'erreur pour l'addresse bitcoin. Corrigé sur mon site mais pas sur Dailymotion. J'ai mis un erratum en commentaire. Pour le rôle des genres, vu le sex ratio sur ce forum, je crois que le casting actuel est approprié  |

I don't think teenagers like chess very much.
Yes. We have disgressed a bit. And you don't need a graphic card to play chess anyway. |

Anybody read lesswrong.org?
Thanks for letting me know about this site. I've just read the article about Simpson's paradox. I didn't know about it, but it confirmed my feelings about medecine making poor use of statistics as a inference tool. |

Wait, in the chess thing, what happens if an AI plays? I mean, I could simulate easily all possible moves and do a treemap choice maker which only highlights the suggested move for winning and then just act if I was the best of all. :/
Yes you can. When playing chess on internet, you can never assume your opponent is a human being. |

The messenger brings good news! The Great Creator, Satoshi, speaks though His chosen disciple on earth, Gavin Andresen, to tell us that He exists!
lol |
|
|

Satoshi could meet the movers and shakers of the financial and cryptographic worlds while enjoying the beautiful beaches of St. Lucia.
If for some reason Satoshi doesn't want to go, I'm ok to take his place  I could use some time on the bea... on conferences. |

Wow. So your SW is pretty UNIX-wayish, huh?
Good. I may get it to you. Any special requirements? What about bandwidth?
I don't think I need much bandwith. I doubt I'll have many clients at the beginning. |

I may offer you hosting for the project. What do you need?
I need a web server which accepts bash CGI script, and which have tools such as bc, dc, sed, awk, xxd. And also a recent version of openssl. I know openssl 1.0.0c works fine. openssl 0.9.8q doesn't. |

This seems backwards. The stronger player should bet more money than the weaker one as he is more likely to win (hence, losing should cost him more). This is what happens with the ranking systems: if you're 2000 ELO and you lose against a 1500 ELO, your rank drops more than if you lose against a 2500 ELO.
I know from experience that strong players usually don't accept to play against weak players. You need some incentive to convince them. |

Anyway I have already written a bash CGI that does what I wanted. Basically the owner of an asset is identified by a bitcoin address. Thanks to dirtyfilthy, it is possible to extract a bitcoin private key from the wallet, and thus to sign a transaction using openssl. Using a bitcoin address as an identifier makes it much easier for stocks (dividends just have to be paid on this bitcoin address). Unfortunately I have to wait until I get a better web hosting solution to show it to the world. The source code is already available on github though : http://github.com/grondilu/bitcoin-bash-tools |

Money is a way to transfer value.
You give a service or goods to someone, and you receive money which you expect to be able to give back later in exchange for some other good or service. It's nothing but a convention between people. Therefore, all money you own is some kind of a debt society has towards you.
If you lose money, you relieve society from this debt. It's just as if what you did to obtain this money, you did it for free.
I don't see how people working for free could hurt society.

On my website, I have a formula for my offer : the smaller is my stock, the higher is my price.
I don't know if that's the best solution, but it works and it makes sense economically.
