02:20:06 <gingeropolous> im aware of anaconda jwinterm
02:20:33 <gingeropolous> id bet they are prolly the most popular python distribution platform for sciency stuff
02:24:03 <jwinterm> PyNE not working gingeropolous :/
09:15:19 <msvb-lab> sgp: The course where you will speak is sold out and looks really good, congratulations.
09:16:22 <msvb-lab> I don't know UZH, but rather ETH (in Zuerich as well) which is where more hackers and network engineers (while students) hang out. Maybe UZH is more relevant for this topic however.
12:37:38 <msvb-lab> How do we know what the proper 'brrrr' ending is for folks like Mr needmoney needbrrrrrrr90?
12:37:57 <msvb-lab> Is there a particular number of 'r' characters that is correct and others not correct?
12:41:30 <midipoet> 42
12:57:06 <msvb-lab> midipoet: By the way, I was slanting lines yesterday for graphic design. Do you know the angle of line that the Monero M requires? It is close to 45 degrees but not quite.
12:57:30 <msvb-lab> I found that out by chance, of course as soon as I saw it was almost 45 but not quite, I knew which new value to try. And it was right.
12:57:36 <midipoet> LOL
12:57:48 <msvb-lab> Whoever made our logo is a total nerd.
15:41:43 <lithiumpt> msvb-rtc[m] what's the angle?
15:57:54 <sarang> Is it 42 degrees?
16:00:00 <niocbrrrrrr> finally some good news
18:34:29 <sgp_> Canada now has more competitive retail trading platform for Monero than the United States https://web.newton.co/api
18:39:13 <xmrmatterbridge> <cankerwort> How is this "more competitive" than Kraken etc?
18:41:17 <sarang> Is the Canadian regulatory landscape much different than that of the U.S.?
18:41:23 <sarang> Or is it merely perceived as such?
18:47:21 <sgp_> different landscape. was more permissive, now is getting more restrictive in some ways
18:47:44 <sgp_> cankerwort: no deposit or withdrawal fees
18:49:16 <tevador> do we know which exchanges still use integrated addresses?
18:50:41 <sgp_> tevador: good question. I'm not sure
18:56:18 <sarang> sgp_: restrictive in what ways?
18:56:43 <sarang> I guess what I wonder is if/how Canadian regulated entities might view interacting with privacy-focused assets versus their American counterparts
18:56:58 <sarang> I know basically nothing about Canadian financial regulations
18:57:07 <sgp_> for example, they want the equivalent of a SAR to be filed by next year for all crypto transfers from customers over 10k CAD
18:57:22 <sarang> Is that unreasonable, given global standards today?
18:57:36 <sarang> Or even, given U.S. standards today?
18:57:43 <sgp_> they're earlier than other jurisdictions to clearly apply that to crypto
18:59:01 <sarang> I assume that, for example, U.S. entities already have some kinds of standards for filing SARs, whether or not they interact with digital assets
18:59:20 <sarang> Does the Canadian regulation simply provide a concrete number for digital assets?
18:59:29 <sgp_> yeah if they started as a FI with other assets and are moving into crypto
19:00:31 <sgp_> yeah I guess. they need to file now already if transactions of any amount are suspicious
19:00:58 <sarang> OK, so this just provides more specific guidance than they had before?
19:01:24 <sarang> (whether or not you agree that "any crypto transction over $X is automagically suspicious"...)
19:01:35 <sgp_> no there's another enforcement that basically says anything 10k+ is automatically suspicious
19:01:44 <sgp_> it will be a slightly different form
19:01:51 <sarang> Oh, so this just puts them in line with existing regulations?
19:02:02 <sgp_> yeah, similar to the treatment of cash
19:02:24 <sarang> Do you think this might help regulated entities be more confident in their operations?
19:02:41 <sgp_> not really since this is Canada haha
19:02:45 <sarang> e.g. instead of getting out of the market, they might expand due to a better understanding of how to comply with the law
19:02:50 <sarang> I mean in Canada
19:02:54 <sarang> not the U.S. or elsewhere
19:03:04 <sgp_> the same players will stay there afaict
19:03:18 <sgp_> they already needed processes to fill out SAR-equivalents
19:03:22 <sarang> On one hand, onerous regulation is onerous... but on the other hand, less uncertainty could lead to more confidence
19:35:50 <xmrmatterbridge> <cankerwort> If crypto transactions have the same quantity  threshold to be considered "suspicious" as cash then that's at least sane
23:44:31 <msvb-web> lithiumpt sarang: I think the angle is indeed 42, but it would be good to have a second opinion. I was working quite fast and hard for certainty.
