canon-mpc and so on, which seems to be malicious-adversary resistant
-
waxwing
i'm just intuiting that if there's less interactivity there might be more cpu load
-
oakpacific
the website is dysfunctional
-
though
-
and NISC seems to attract nowhere near as much attention as, say, FHE
-
waxwing
they should have called it ion-cannon-mpc :)
-
belcher joined the channel
-
oakpacific
think about it: FHE maybe malicious-adversary-resistant
-
also doesn't require two inputs from two parties
-
waxwing
yep. moon math works :)
-
oakpacific
i am not interested in this just for one single reason, if offline 2pc computation can work, tls-1.2 support maybe practical
-
waxwing
of course, we all know the holy grail :)
-
anyway bithalo solved this all a long time ago :)
-
oakpacific
i keep wondering why they are not getting any VC money and on NASDAQ yet
-
waxwing
just finish the algo, but leave an empty box to insert the shitcoin
-
oakpacific
belcher: the shitshow is suitably shitty
-
tks
-
belcher
which?
-
oakpacific
tonals
-
belcher
ah
-
oakpacific
never heard the neckbeard saying stuff like that
-
waxwing
i can't find tonalcoin on coinmarketcap
-
oakpacific not sure if serious
-
yeah, i agree, it's amazing that i can't find it
-
oakpacific
it must be high above in the rank consider its weight
-
musics and so on
-
waxwing
:)
-
oakpacific
besides, using hexadecimal just makes every number big, is my math right or what
-
waxwing
euphoria is nearly at the bottom
-
every base is base 10, that's what i always say
-
oakpacific
waxwing: do you happen to know that Knuth created a complex-number base when he was in the high school
-
waxwing
i do now :)
-
oakpacific
-
waxwing
i trust belcher will transfer the info to the bitcoin-wiki forthwith
-
belcher
free bitcoin wiki accounts in #bitcoin-wiki
-
roll up roll up
-
get them before they change their mines
-
minds*
-
waxwing
interesting slip there :)
-
oakpacific starts to wonder under what occasion will bitcoin needs complex numbers
-
treat testnet balances as imaginary
-
then offering compound interest on testnet is like offering real coins
-
belcher
haha
-
oakpacific
omg waxwing it's such a honor to know you
-
waxwing
because i've discovered a new way to make money? :)
-
belcher
yeah he is a pretty cool guy isnt he
-
nah its the wit
-
i remember that one about gmaxwell not yet implementing pruning
-
waxwing
heh that was naughty
-
oakpacific
belcher: which one?
-
waxwing
oakpacific: someone on reddit commented on the beard and i just said greg hasn't figured out how to implement pruning yet
-
oakpacific
rotfl
-
rotfl is not rot13
-
it's more like the floor function version of rot13
-
waxwing
-
i remember you commented on the shirt, just to be different :)
-
belcher: did you get a chance to try purse/brawker yet?
-
or have you avoided it
-
belcher
never tried it yet
-
i dont buy much btc
-
i thought i might if i drops any lower
-
but its in a rally so w/e
-
waxwing
yeah. i tried it once but didn't work due to my location
-
i mean, i think that's what it was
-
oakpacific
waxwing: trust me, we are going back to rule of man, backed by rule of math laws, from now on, only the arbiters' opinions will be important
-
waxwing
rule of math: perhaps. it's an interesting topic.
-
oakpacific
-
belcher
waxwing were you trying to buy or sell btc?
-
waxwing
oakpacific: meh, bit onf an old story
-
belcher: sell btc/buy goods
-
belcher
i dont actually have a credit card
-
waxwing
oakpacific: that was more a 'thing' 10 years ago from what i understand
-
belcher
wonder if my debit will work
-
oakpacific
oh i c
-
where have they migrated?
-
waxwing
oakpacific: they still have them. i remember a couple years ago i met a few guys 'out on the town' there.
-
latvians get understandably upset when they piss on the national monument :)
-
so they put a 24/7 guard on it
-
oakpacific
are baltic nations attractive mostly because low cost+decent living conditions?
-
waxwing
well, they're not attractive to most people :)
-
but yeah, you could say that. being in the EU helps also
-
oakpacific
yeah that's reasonable
-
belcher
whats the local bitcoin scene like?
-
oakpacific
for small nations like this, a tourist group is probably a horde already
-
waxwing
belcher: i think there might be a group in riga, but not where i live.
-
but it'll be very small anyway
-
belcher
ok
-
oakpacific
i think there are two bitcoin full nodes, and a dog
-
there
-
waxwing
:)
-
last count i saw was 7
-
belcher
listen=0 full nodes should count
-
but they dont get measured..
-
they still help the network
-
economic majority/consensus
-
oakpacific
i found a website telling me there are about 5 millions or so IMAP servers in the world
-
waxwing
belcher: re CC I don't understand, you're thinking of buying btc via it?
-
belcher
yeah
-
waxwing
right. you'll have to mess around figuring out the gift cards, but maybe it's worth it, i don't know.
-
belcher
so you cant just buy something from an amazon wish list?
-
you have to go through giftcard first
-
waxwing
debit cards; again don't know but i guess it works
-
re: giftcards good Q, don't know, but what about the discount?
-
because they give like 20% discount to buyers right
-
prob it's all explained on their websites
-
belcher
yeah
-
bbl
-
