Mon Mar 14 17:39:26 UTC 2016 <asciilifeform> i must agree with phf. and i think this is how nubbins` ended up killfiled by mircea_popescu, for the 'i speak for trees, for the trees have no tongues' thing.
Mon Mar 14 17:38:37 UTC 2016 <phf> nubbins`: that's not the meaning of the paragraph. not "what" you did, but "how" is the focus., and the sentence you're pointing at is an exposition that frames my perspective, in a form similar to "some of us here are shoemakers and we blah blah blah". whatever blah blah blah is, it's not usually about how shoemakers can not shoemake anymore, but is more like "i speak for shoemakers"
Mon Mar 14 17:38:25 UTC 2016 <asciilifeform> nubbins`: or was the idea that it ~ought to be~ successful enough to be able to cover any loss with simply the profit from any particular month ?
Mon Mar 14 17:38:00 UTC 2016 <asciilifeform> nubbins`: was it really meant to live only until the first disaster, however small? e.g., stolen server ?

Mon Mar 14 17:31:55 UTC 2016 <nubbins`> what, you can't fuck around with novel ways of doing things because s.bbet imploded?
Mon Mar 14 17:28:00 UTC 2016 <nubbins`> <+phf> nubbins`: it's a shame that you chose this approach for your denouncement. some people are here (myself, maybe ascii) not to make money, but to fuck around with novel ways of doing things <<< nothing about what i did prevents this from continuing.
Mon Mar 14 16:33:30 UTC 2016 <phf> nubbins`: the core of the issue (the way i understand it) is whether or not mp can use personal funds to pay out bets, and whether he can later ask for those funds back from shareholders. that seems to contradict the contract, so the accusation goes, he's in breach of contract. seems simple enough.
Mon Mar 14 16:33:27 UTC 2016 <phf> nubbins`: i think it's a pointless to discuss (and takes away from the core of the issue) whether or not miners are conspiring against bitbet. ascii's been known to say that lizard hitler personally disconnected his node, nobody cared to pipe in then, because it's an established local way of talking and thinking (?? ?????? ????? ?? ??????). miners are a cartel, they can collectively decide what the protocol behavior should be
Mon Mar 14 16:33:26 UTC 2016 <phf> nubbins`: it's a shame that you chose this approach for your denouncement. some people are here (myself, maybe ascii) not to make money, but to fuck around with novel ways of doing things. it would've been nifty if, as a "lord" if you will, you picked up the game and made your accusations formal, maybe solicited a judge from the wot, made it interesting somehow! you don't have to obviously, but the approach that you chose was basic and
Mon Mar 14 15:50:33 UTC 2016 <assbot> Logged on 14-03-2016 14:35:55; nubbins`: hey, do you guys remember yesterday when MP said he'd steal 750 BTC worth of outstanding bets if he can't find a receiver for bitbet?
Mon Mar 14 15:26:41 UTC 2016 <asciilifeform> nubbins`: we had this thread ?
Mon Mar 14 15:25:10 UTC 2016 <nubbins`> You weren't caught in some occult and unknowable coincidence that was out of your hands [when you chose to send a 0-fee tx and you got bitten as a result]. You either didn't make sure you understood the basics of using bitcoin, or else you decided not to care.
Mon Mar 14 15:24:34 UTC 2016 <nubbins`> i'll leave you with one more nugget of applicable advice from hanbot
