  16 2010-12-08 00:10:07 <lfm> I think Diablo-D3 has sed the two logical gpus will probably work better with two separate miner processes instead of the two threads. use command line to select just #1 or #2
  17 2010-12-08 00:10:30 <lfm> 0 or 1?
  18 2010-12-08 00:11:16 <Diablo-D3> lfm: nope.
  19 2010-12-08 00:11:20 <Diablo-D3> threads are threads
  20 2010-12-08 00:11:33 <lfm> oh you never said that?
  21 2010-12-08 00:12:33 <redengin> anyone know of a btc'er thats registered as a commodity broker?
  22 2010-12-08 00:12:41 <Diablo-D3> no xel is trying to say that with no proof
  23 2010-12-08 00:13:38 <lfm> redengin, like a US govmnt register currency trader?
  24 2010-12-08 00:15:02 <redengin> mostly in the US, for these off-exchange commodities you only need an instate registration
  25 2010-12-08 00:15:26 <lfm> redengin, is bitcoin a commodity or a currency tho?
  26 2010-12-08 00:15:40 <redengin> its a commodity under this state's definition
  27 2010-12-08 00:15:46 <redengin> washington state
  28 2010-12-08 00:15:53 <lfm> interesting
  29 2010-12-08 00:16:05 <lfm> anyway, no I dont know of any
  30 2010-12-08 00:16:43 <redengin> $6k of volume a day is getting pretty attractive
  31 2010-12-08 00:17:28 <lfm> ya mtgox volume is up there but Im not even sure if he is in USA

  38 2010-12-08 00:29:33 <Kiba> Very interesting
  39 2010-12-08 00:29:40 <schmooo> Why is it not needed?
  40 2010-12-08 00:29:43 <Kiba> the bitcoinmarket exchange follows mtgox, but on a higher level
  41 2010-12-08 00:30:32 <tcatm> You can use both GPUs without inter-GPU-communication.
  42 2010-12-08 00:30:40 <schmooo> Aha okay.

  47 2010-12-08 00:35:42 <tcatm> Those 50 mature after 150 blocks.

  76 2010-12-08 01:32:41 <chaord> it would resonate much better with mainstream consumers that way too

  91 2010-12-08 02:31:44 <jc_toronto> it becomes harder to create new bitcoins
  92 2010-12-08 02:33:00 <jc_toronto> the bitcoins at the beginning didn't take that much to create, but they are worth more than the ones that were just created
  93 2010-12-08 02:33:09 <jc_toronto> sore worth the same

 106 2010-12-08 02:48:10 <jgarzik> Kiba: no cryptography mentioned, and I think he would have used GNU autotools, if Satoshi were that person
 107 2010-12-08 02:50:56 <AAA_awright> Why do you say that?
 108 2010-12-08 02:51:50 <Kiba> Satoshi licensed his project under MIT, no?
 109 2010-12-08 02:52:17 <AAA_awright> Let's ask about making it public domain
 110 2010-12-08 02:52:46 <AAA_awright> I'm that against software licenses now, it's an arcane practice that restricts freedom no matter what terms it has in it
 111 2010-12-08 02:53:15 <Kiba> anarchists are only plurity

 127 2010-12-08 03:16:43 <MT`AwAy> Kiba: forget japanese people, Satoshi is /not/ japanese
 128 2010-12-08 03:17:15 <MT`AwAy> AAA_awright: the only real license is WTFPL, public domain only has meaning in north america
 129 2010-12-08 03:17:19 <AAA_awright> Kiba: If you think it's a promising idea you might want to say something to that effect, but you don't know anything about cryptography to say
 130 2010-12-08 03:17:46 <AAA_awright> MT`AwAy: Citation needed... I don't know any court that just says "you can't use the software at all because it's public domain" not a single case.
 131 2010-12-08 03:17:55 <AAA_awright> Name one.
 132 2010-12-08 03:18:01 <Kiba> AAA_awright: yes, I don't know anything
 133 2010-12-08 03:18:17 <Kiba> I am your Joe Smosh average programmer
 134 2010-12-08 03:18:47 <AAA_awright> Right, say /that/ now I think other people will think I paid you off to say that or something (with 50BTC, let's say)
 135 2010-12-08 03:20:12 * Kiba shrugs
 136 2010-12-08 03:20:24 <MT`AwAy> AAA_awright: simple, because no non-american court would ever know what "public domain" is
 137 2010-12-08 03:21:01 <AAA_awright> MT`AwAy: It's defined with American definitions, that's what language is for
 138 2010-12-08 03:21:29 <AAA_awright> If I say "I want a doughnut" I don't have to describe the production process just because I'm ordering it from China
 139 2010-12-08 03:21:46 <AAA_awright> Judges aren't stupid
 140 2010-12-08 03:21:59 <AAA_awright> Lawyers might be, but that's why they aren't judges (that's my theory)
 141 2010-12-08 03:22:39 <AAA_awright> MT`AwAy: Also, without an injured party, it's unlikely a lawsuit could even be filed
 142 2010-12-08 03:23:40 <Zarutian> AAA_awright: "public domain" is "almenningur" in Icelandic. An very old concept not originating from America. (I think it was defined by a german published iirc)
 143 2010-12-08 03:24:08 <Zarutian> s/published/publisher/
 144 2010-12-08 03:25:03 <Diablo-D3> Zarutian: yes, but modern american law often predates even the british shit we stole from them
 145 2010-12-08 03:25:39 <Diablo-D3> a lot of it does come from germany
 146 2010-12-08 03:25:52 <Kiba> If the American didn't recongnize copyright law, America would be over run with British literature
 147 2010-12-08 03:25:56 <AAA_awright> Zarutian: Copyright law didn't even exist prior to what was it, the 1600s? Public domain is simply the state of your work not being copy-limited by the state.
 148 2010-12-08 03:26:03 <AAA_awright> As it was before copyright law.
 149 2010-12-08 03:26:18 <Kiba> AAA_awright: copyright laws exist before that as simple monopoly privillage
 150 2010-12-08 03:26:20 <AAA_awright> I don't see how Iceland plays in
 151 2010-12-08 03:26:35 <Kiba> in the 1600, they just make better "justification" for it

 153 2010-12-08 03:26:43 <AAA_awright> Kiba: This is true
 154 2010-12-08 03:26:55 <Kiba> which is plainly bullshit.
 155 2010-12-08 03:27:22 <AAA_awright> But that's besides the point anyways, "public domain" has an actual meaning. You can't define a word in another country to mean something it doesn't.
 156 2010-12-08 03:27:43 <Zarutian> AAA_awright: copyright is the right to publish a spefic work, that right print publishers of old bought from writers of the texts
 157 2010-12-08 03:28:42 <AAA_awright> Zarutian: Right
 158 2010-12-08 03:29:37 <andrew12> so wait, when solving a block, aren't you basically bruteforcing the hash algorithm in order to get the target hash?
 159 2010-12-08 03:29:42 <Zarutian> AAA_awright: so, iirc, it is slightly younger than the printing press
 160 2010-12-08 03:30:51 <Zarutian> and the Icelandic connection? I am an Icelander and just wanted to put in a word or two ;)
 161 2010-12-08 03:31:40 <AAA_awright> andrew12: A number lower that is lower the required difficulty, yeah
 162 2010-12-08 03:32:25 <andrew12> wait, it has to he lower than the target hash? that makes a bit more sense in terms of 'difficulty'
 163 2010-12-08 03:33:21 <tcatm> andrew12: Yes the check is hash <= target
 164 2010-12-08 03:33:34 <andrew12> has the hash ever been the target?
 165 2010-12-08 03:35:04 <tcatm> I don't have a searchable block database handy. You could ask theymos when he's around.
 166 2010-12-08 03:35:41 <tcatm> My guess would be that was never the case as it's highly unlikely.
 167 2010-12-08 03:35:51 <andrew12> yeah
 168 2010-12-08 03:36:05 <andrew12> what does bitcoin use for the hashes? sha1?
 169 2010-12-08 03:36:13 <tcatm> SHA256
 170 2010-12-08 03:36:13 <AAA_awright> sha256 iirc
 171 2010-12-08 03:36:25 <tcatm> Actually a nested SHA256
 172 2010-12-08 03:36:29 <jrabbit> http://crooksandliars.com/karoli/right-wing-declares-war-poor-kate-obeirne-c/#
 173 2010-12-08 03:36:32 * jrabbit swears
 174 2010-12-08 03:36:42 <andrew12> so then it's like a 1/2^256 chance that you'll get the hash == the target
 175 2010-12-08 03:36:46 <andrew12> but it's possible
 176 2010-12-08 03:37:27 <tcatm> Of course, but 1/2^256 is a very small chance.
 177 2010-12-08 03:37:36 <andrew12> :D
 178 2010-12-08 03:39:41 <Kiba> MT`AwAy: did you as a person to translate page into Japanese?
 179 2010-12-08 03:42:49 <anarchyx> good deed for the month: inform your friends and family about jury nullification, and tell them to spread the word
 180 2010-12-08 03:43:03 <Ry4an> jury nullification++
 181 2010-12-08 03:44:32 <doublec> what is jury nullification?
 182 2010-12-08 03:44:47 <Kiba> let nullify the law!
 183 2010-12-08 03:46:49 <anarchyx> basically it allows any juror to rule not guilty, because he does not agree with the law, or because he really thinks hes innocent, or whatever reason (even false) - and on top of that hang the jury if the rest dont agree - so basically 1 jury member can rule someone not-guilty and let him off the hook
 184 2010-12-08 03:47:15 <anarchyx> even if all the others think hes guilty
 185 2010-12-08 03:48:00 <anarchyx> so if you are part of the jury and think the government shouldnt tax people, and you need to judge on some tax evador, you can let him free
 186 2010-12-08 03:48:28 <Kiba> the presecutor will surely be selecting pro-tax people
 187 2010-12-08 03:48:29 <anarchyx> its pretty powerful and highly controversial - if a defendant tries to mention it he will be punished severely
 188 2010-12-08 03:48:47 <anarchyx> Kiba: both sides can decide on jurors right
 189 2010-12-08 03:49:01 <anarchyx> you only need 1 anti-tax guy whos aware of nullification and you will have won
 190 2010-12-08 03:49:33 <anarchyx> (but you cant ask if they know about nullification, cause they fucked up the system and supreme court wont rule on it yet)
 191 2010-12-08 03:49:56 <tcatm> how does that work?
 192 2010-12-08 03:49:56 <Kiba> now, that will throw an an axe into the system
 193 2010-12-08 03:50:05 <Kiba> just say "not guilty"
 194 2010-12-08 03:50:08 <anarchyx> thats why you hvave people handing out pamphlets to jurors sometimes
 195 2010-12-08 03:50:10 <anarchyx> yep and stick to it
 196 2010-12-08 03:50:14 <anarchyx> its that simple
 197 2010-12-08 03:50:41 <anarchyx> other jurors can try to convince you otherwise but you just dont cave
 198 2010-12-08 03:50:53 <anarchyx> =hung jury=end of trail
 199 2010-12-08 03:51:21 <doublec> so juries need to be unaminous?
 200 2010-12-08 03:51:44 <anarchyx> http://fija.org/
 201 2010-12-08 03:51:52 <anarchyx> yeah
 202 2010-12-08 03:51:54 <doublec> can't they just retrial with a different jury?
 203 2010-12-08 03:52:01 <Kiba> double jeapordy
 204 2010-12-08 03:52:07 <anarchyx> yes
 205 2010-12-08 03:52:12 <anarchyx> wont work
 206 2010-12-08 03:52:17 <Ry4an> It's a mistrial and they can retry.
 207 2010-12-08 03:52:18 <anarchyx> kiba said it
 208 2010-12-08 03:52:26 <doublec> in NZ they retrial
 209 2010-12-08 03:52:28 <Ry4an> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hung_jury#United_States
 210 2010-12-08 03:52:32 <Ry4an> in the US they do too
 211 2010-12-08 03:52:50 <doublec> one high profile case they retrialed 4 times till they got a jury to convict someone
 212 2010-12-08 03:53:01 <doublec> so much for 'reasonable doubt'
 213 2010-12-08 03:53:03 <Ry4an> "A hung jury does not imply either the defendant's guilt or innocence. The government may retry any defendant on any count on which the jury could not agree."
 214 2010-12-08 03:53:58 <lolcat> Are we discussing bitcoin and tax evasion?

 216 2010-12-08 03:54:47 <doublec> lolcat, did you see my note about running bitcoind on the N900?
 217 2010-12-08 03:54:56 <doublec> lolcat, (I think it was you asking about it?)
 218 2010-12-08 03:55:04 <andrew12> we're discussing replacing USD with BTC
 219 2010-12-08 03:55:28 <lolcat> doublec: No, I did not see it. And yes it was me asking about it. I had some computer trouble earlier so I must have missed it.

 229 2010-12-08 03:56:55 <lolcat> doublec: Do you know what the adress to the bluetooth folder is?
 230 2010-12-08 03:57:13 <lolcat> Is the block chain big?
 231 2010-12-08 03:57:27 <lolcat> I only have 500MB download a month on it
 232 2010-12-08 03:57:38 <doublec> best to do the block chain over wifi

 240 2010-12-08 03:58:52 <doublec> lolcat, running bitcoind on the phone probably isn't that useful since there's not much you can use with it, and there's no gui so you have to type bitcoind commands in the terminal
 241 2010-12-08 03:58:55 <doublec> but it's a start
 242 2010-12-08 03:59:11 <andrew12> oh, and N900 == ?

 244 2010-12-08 03:59:29 <andrew12> I meant to ask that but my PC was being slow :<
 245 2010-12-08 03:59:39 <andrew12> doublec: android? or just linux?
 246 2010-12-08 03:59:47 <doublec> just linux - runs maemo
 247 2010-12-08 04:00:00 <andrew12> i'd like to see a real bitcoin app for android
 248 2010-12-08 04:00:16 <doublec> tcatm is working on one
 249 2010-12-08 04:00:21 <andrew12> yay!
 250 2010-12-08 04:00:31 <tcatm> well, not a real one. More a frontend.
 251 2010-12-08 04:00:46 <anarchyx> hung jury/mistrial might lead to aquittal - the prosecutor will not always do another trial - and if we have lets say 10% of population against taxes, and aware of their jury rights, noone will ever get convicted
 252 2010-12-08 04:00:47 <andrew12> tcatm: have you managed to get bitcoind running on it?
 253 2010-12-08 04:01:03 <tcatm> No, I don't even have a android phone.
 254 2010-12-08 04:01:15 <andrew12> hmm
 255 2010-12-08 04:01:22 <tcatm> http://bitcoincharts.com/media/stuff/androidclient1.png
 256 2010-12-08 04:01:39 <andrew12> do you know how one would get bitcoind running on android?
 257 2010-12-08 04:01:51 <doublec> tcatm, nice!
 258 2010-12-08 04:02:16 <doublec> andrew12, one would need to use the android NDK and go through much pain
 259 2010-12-08 04:02:24 <andrew12> damn :p
 260 2010-12-08 04:02:33 <doublec> it'd probably be easier using the latest android version, gingerbread
 261 2010-12-08 04:02:38 <andrew12> wat
 262 2010-12-08 04:02:38 <tcatm> Real bitcoind on android would require a major rewrite.
 263 2010-12-08 04:02:41 <doublec> since they have a more up to date C++ library
 264 2010-12-08 04:03:00 <lolcat> Me feels royaly stupid
 265 2010-12-08 04:03:14 <andrew12> whoa never heard of gingerbread before
 266 2010-12-08 04:03:17 * lolcat can't even use the me command correctly
 267 2010-12-08 04:03:19 <andrew12> sounds interesting
 268 2010-12-08 04:03:38 <lolcat> doublec: I can get it to run :S I get premission denied with ./bitcoind
 269 2010-12-08 04:03:46 <doublec> lolcat, chmod +x ./bitcoind
 270 2010-12-08 04:03:50 <doublec> to make it executable
 271 2010-12-08 04:04:46 <lolcat> Still permission denied
 272 2010-12-08 04:05:25 <doublec> where did you download it to?
 273 2010-12-08 04:05:32 <doublec> move it to your home directory
 274 2010-12-08 04:05:35 <lolcat> MyDocs
 275 2010-12-08 04:05:48 <doublec> MyDocs is probably set to not allow executable's
 276 2010-12-08 04:07:17 <lolcat> Ahh
 277 2010-12-08 04:07:47 <andrew12> MyDocs?
 278 2010-12-08 04:08:04 <doublec> it's a folder holding your documents
 279 2010-12-08 04:08:23 <andrew12> you mean My Documents?
 280 2010-12-08 04:08:24 <andrew12> lol
 281 2010-12-08 04:08:34 <doublec> No, it's MyDocs on the N900
 282 2010-12-08 04:08:42 <andrew12> oh
 283 2010-12-08 04:08:43 <andrew12> lol
 284 2010-12-08 04:09:05 <doublec> Try typing long words like Documents on a cellphone and you'll appreciate the shorter names ;)
 285 2010-12-08 04:09:16 <andrew12> I wish there was a simple cross compiler for android
 286 2010-12-08 04:09:21 <lolcat> There it started!
 287 2010-12-08 04:09:28 <andrew12> or arm i guess
 288 2010-12-08 04:09:29 <doublec> great!
 289 2010-12-08 04:09:50 <andrew12> I could probably get cmake to compile for arm
 290 2010-12-08 04:10:10 <tcatm> Android doesn't work well with "normal" applications.
 291 2010-12-08 04:10:36 <andrew12> yeah... cyanogen added htop and irssi and neither work properly :D
 292 2010-12-08 04:10:51 <andrew12> they might work properly over adb shell but idk
 293 2010-12-08 04:10:58 <lolcat> Oh well, it is late. I will set it up tomorrow. See ya
 294 2010-12-08 04:11:07 <lolcat> doublec: Thanks for compiling
 295 2010-12-08 04:11:13 <doublec> np
 296 2010-12-08 04:12:08 <andrew12> the ndk has cross compilers in it

 300 2010-12-08 04:13:27 <andrew12> s/then/them/
 301 2010-12-08 04:13:39 <doublec> you can write simple libc based apps and run them using adb shell
 302 2010-12-08 04:13:42 * tcatm is thinking about getting a motorola milestone. I think that's the same hardware.
 303 2010-12-08 04:13:52 <doublec> but the android libc is quite limited
 304 2010-12-08 04:13:59 <doublec> which makes porting difficult
 305 2010-12-08 04:14:04 <andrew12> libc?
 306 2010-12-08 04:14:15 <andrew12> I was thinking of just compiling the whole thing :p
 307 2010-12-08 04:14:24 <andrew12> that's probably what you meant...
 308 2010-12-08 04:15:25 <doublec> bitcoind requires a number of dependancies which don't have a show of working on android
 309 2010-12-08 04:18:49 <andrew12> this is true

 312 2010-12-08 04:21:34 <andrew12> I've gotta try that
 313 2010-12-08 04:21:34 Lysacor has joined
 314 2010-12-08 04:28:21 <Ry4an> so with the block count ever growing does that mean the time to start generating coins will always go up too?
 315 2010-12-08 04:28:47 <Lysacor> yep
 316 2010-12-08 04:28:56 <Lysacor> recalculated every 2 weeks isn't it?
 317 2010-12-08 04:29:13 <Lysacor> difficulty I mean?
 318 2010-12-08 04:29:17 <doublec> the time to generate is based on the amount of computing power generating
 319 2010-12-08 04:29:18 <Ry4an> Lysacor: that's the difficulty, but I'm talking about initial start-up/download time unless I'm missing something
 320 2010-12-08 04:29:27 <Lysacor> aaah
 321 2010-12-08 04:29:29 <doublec> so it will take longer to generate as more people generate
 322 2010-12-08 04:29:44 <Ry4an> yeah, that I get. but I'm talking time-to-first-hash going up too.
 323 2010-12-08 04:29:47 <Lysacor> Ry4an: you are right, depends on how long you have been off
 324 2010-12-08 04:29:49 <doublec> yes, initial time to download the block chain will get longer
 325 2010-12-08 04:30:01 <Lysacor> yep, that is right Ry4an
 326 2010-12-08 04:30:05 <Ry4an> I started bitcoind 7 hours ago and it's still downloading blocks.
 327 2010-12-08 04:30:38 <Ry4an> and is that also part of the intentional cost of generating coins, or just a result of how long it takes to get blocks
 328 2010-12-08 04:30:55 <Lysacor> Ry4an: I have found if the block download seizes a bit and you aren't at current count, I close my client, wait a second, and reopen
 329 2010-12-08 04:31:40 <doublec> Ry4an, time for the initial block download depends greatly on the speed of the node providing the blocks to you
 330 2010-12-08 04:31:40 <Lysacor> Ry4an: that is the result of having a large block chain, and a distributed network. Sometimes distribution of the historical block chain can be slow.
 331 2010-12-08 04:31:48 <Ry4an> it's not siezed.  It's been a steady march forward on a good net connection.  I'm at 91979.. 91999.. 92009,
 332 2010-12-08 04:32:03 <Lysacor> definitely right then :P
 333 2010-12-08 04:32:06 <Ry4an> Doublec: ahh, so I must've initially connected to a dud sender
 334 2010-12-08 04:32:16 <doublec> there's been some discussion about providing some of the block chain as part of the client download
 335 2010-12-08 04:32:20 <Ry4an> and with 96355 out there I can see I"m getting close.
 336 2010-12-08 04:32:30 <Lysacor> Soon!
 337 2010-12-08 04:33:00 <AAA_awright> I'm looking for a hashing function that produces an output with a constant number of bits of each value (say, "take this input and produce a binary number with 100 1's and 100 0's)

 348 2010-12-08 04:39:18 <Ry4an> AAA_awright: It's just pointing out tha tif you want a 200 bit bash that has 100 zeros and 100 1s you, use a 100-bit hash and then append the inverse of that initial hash.   It meets the requirements, but if anything shows they're odd requirements.

 356 2010-12-08 04:41:48 <AAA_awright> I need such a hash for something else too
 357 2010-12-08 04:45:40 <nanotube> Ry4an: fwiw, i recently started a bitcoin node on my vps, and it took less than an hour to download the 95k+ blocks... so it all depends on your net connection, and your luck in what nodes you get.
 358 2010-12-08 04:46:05 <nanotube> Ry4an: further, it's possible to download a file containing most of the block chain to get you started - as long as you trust the source. (e.g., you could get it from a friend)
 359 2010-12-08 04:46:12 <AAA_awright> Even an hour is prohibititive
 360 2010-12-08 04:46:45 <AAA_awright> The client does verify the transactions right?
 361 2010-12-08 04:47:47 <Ry4an> yeah, I must've had a dud node.  I'll just let it finish out, but perhaps it could sample other connections and download in parallel or switchoff.  No big deal.  I'm up to 19 connections, so once this finishes out I should be good to go.

 385 2010-12-08 04:59:51 <andrew12> AAA_awright: is 302 an actual HTTP code?

 426 2010-12-08 05:04:07 <AAA_awright> Diablo-D3: It would certainly be better than having massive pages for donations and ads
 427 2010-12-08 05:04:34 <AAA_awright> Just because no one uses it doesn't mean no one wants it... anyone who wants it simply hasn't produced the product that needs it

 461 2010-12-08 05:42:38 <echelon> just need enough money in the bitcoin economy

 469 2010-12-08 05:48:12 <nanotube> it's probably easier to do a cash swap.

 550 2010-12-08 06:05:05 <donpdonp> DemeGeek: there is a lot of relevant info in http://www.bitcoin.org/sites/default/files/bitcoin.pdf
 551 2010-12-08 06:06:28 <Ry4an> DemeGeek: as I understand it the short answer is "the crypto provides an involatile, aritificial scarcity, and anytime you have something fungible, non-counterfitable, and scarce you have a currency"
 552 2010-12-08 06:07:35 <DemeGeek> But Bills can be conterfited.
 553 2010-12-08 06:07:54 <Ry4an> right, so they're not a very good currency. :)
 554 2010-12-08 06:08:55 <joe_1> i see the price has rebounded back into the 20s today
 555 2010-12-08 06:09:54 <DemeGeek> Isn't Crypto hackable as well?
 556 2010-12-08 06:09:59 <Lysacor> pretty volatile, peaked at .24, definitely a trend developing, we will see where it goes
 557 2010-12-08 06:11:21 <Lysacor> even if it is hackable, the rest of the network keeps a distributed database of the comings and goings on the network

 559 2010-12-08 06:11:46 <Lysacor> so one compromised node in theory cannot easily affect the others if I read it right
 560 2010-12-08 06:12:22 <Lysacor> it might compromise one account, but all accounts on the network would be a much more difficult task
 561 2010-12-08 06:13:24 <Lysacor> the only weakness is if the local PC's are compromised, and an application were written to interact with the bitcoin server/GUI and force a transfer of all BTC assets to another account, centralizing it to one account eventually
 562 2010-12-08 06:14:18 <Lysacor> something like that I forsee could still endanger the network, but it would not bring it down unless it was done to every active node all at once, or distrubted through the block chain (wild imagination here)
 563 2010-12-08 06:14:36 <Lysacor> or done gradually in a way no one easily noticed
 564 2010-12-08 06:15:08 <DemeGeek> Lysacor, since crypto is involved why not after stealing BTC just keep sending it around fake accounts?
 565 2010-12-08 06:16:08 <Lysacor> The potential intruder could also be a victim of his/her own intrusion
 566 2010-12-08 06:16:40 <DemeGeek> How?
 567 2010-12-08 06:16:49 <Lysacor> spread a disease, and you could eventually get it yourself
 568 2010-12-08 06:17:01 <Lysacor> Someone figures it out on their own
 569 2010-12-08 06:17:08 <Lysacor> and performs the same attach

 572 2010-12-08 06:17:37 <Lysacor> regardless of the crypto involved, a compromised client is a compromised client
 573 2010-12-08 06:18:20 <Lysacor> but, the compromise could be limited to the domain of operating systems it works on
 574 2010-12-08 06:19:02 <Lysacor> considering though that the majority of PC's hashing today are using one of four different processing platforms (Intel, AMD, AMD Radeon, Nvidia GeForce)
 575 2010-12-08 06:19:23 <Lysacor> Intel and AMD use a common instruction set in the x86 architecture
 576 2010-12-08 06:20:03 <Lysacor> AMD Radeon, and Nvidia GeForce use a different instruction sets, but a common language in OpenCL
 577 2010-12-08 06:20:06 <Diablo-D3> instruction set isnt really a meaningful comparison
 578 2010-12-08 06:20:48 <DemeGeek> bc,calc 1470
 579 2010-12-08 06:21:07 <Diablo-D3> Lysacor: and, arguably, opencl is an instruction set as well
 580 2010-12-08 06:21:08 <DemeGeek> ;;bc,calc
 581 2010-12-08 06:21:09 <gribble> (bc,calc <an alias, 1 argument>) -- Alias for "echo The average time to generate a block at $1 Khps, given current difficulty of [bc,diff], is [time elapsed [math calc 1/((2**224-1)/[bc,diff]*$1*1000/2**256)]]".
 582 2010-12-08 06:21:21 <DemeGeek> ;;bc,calc 1470
 583 2010-12-08 06:21:21 <gribble> The average time to generate a block at 1470 Khps, given current difficulty of 8078.19525793 , is 39 weeks, 0 days, 4 hours, 13 minutes, and 58 seconds
 584 2010-12-08 06:21:33 <Lysacor> Diablo-D3: that may be, however compromising the way a particular instruction set works is possible, though extremely unlikely
 585 2010-12-08 06:21:42 <Diablo-D3> Lysacor: C has been often called "portable assembly", and OpenCL's language is a minimal version of C
 586 2010-12-08 06:23:30 <Lysacor> Diable-D3: I don't disagree with you at all, and my expertise in this area is limited, but would you agree with my assertions as I stated earlier, or is it just my own fantastical delusions?
 587 2010-12-08 06:24:14 <Lysacor> wow I am mistyping a lot... I may need to go to bed soon :P
 588 2010-12-08 06:25:18 <DemeGeek> You can generate BTC correct?
 589 2010-12-08 06:25:34 <Diablo-D3> Lysacor: also

 595 2010-12-08 06:26:32 <DemeGeek> The miner.
 596 2010-12-08 06:26:40 <DemeGeek> They have harsh jobs
 597 2010-12-08 06:26:54 <DemeGeek> Hope you were nice to them in the letter

 606 2010-12-08 06:30:29 <Lysacor> the market I generally use, mtgox, shows the last trade being around there
 607 2010-12-08 06:30:50 <DemeGeek> How do you buy? Can you use paypal?
 608 2010-12-08 06:31:00 <Lysacor> the charts I looked at show that the price at this stage could rise or fall, but I would say rise is more likely
 609 2010-12-08 06:31:27 <Lysacor> you can wire, or use third-parties to get LibertyReserve dollars
 610 2010-12-08 06:31:44 <Lysacor> I am not sure about the PP part though you could ask mtgox I am sure
 611 2010-12-08 06:31:47 <Lysacor> www.mtgox.com

 613 2010-12-08 06:33:06 <jgarzik> DemeGeek: you can negotiate PayPal on #bitcoin-otc (OTC == over the counter).  you can buy with credit card at https://www.bitcoingateway.com/
 614 2010-12-08 06:33:49 <jgarzik> DemeGeek: easiest is mtgox.com as Lysacor noted, but obtaining Liberty Reserve USD is difficult.
 615 2010-12-08 06:34:28 <jgarzik> DemeGeek: other places like nanaimogold take Western Union or money order

 622 2010-12-08 06:39:21 <davux> how would you, in python, wait for new transactions and react when there's one?
 623 2010-12-08 06:40:17 <jgarzik> davux: with gavinandresen's monitor patches, you receive an HTTP request.  in mainline bitcoin, nothing to do but poll repeatedly, and notice new output.
 624 2010-12-08 06:40:55 <davux> jgarzik: do you have any more information about that?
 625 2010-12-08 06:41:45 <jgarzik> davux: which "that"?  :)
 626 2010-12-08 06:43:59 <davux> about that feature
 627 2010-12-08 06:44:38 <jgarzik> davux: which feature, (a) gavinandresen's monitor or (b) polling?  I listed two.
 628 2010-12-08 06:45:27 <davux> jgarzik: the monitor patches, sorry
 629 2010-12-08 06:45:36 <davux> i'm a bit tired

 631 2010-12-08 06:47:53 <jgarzik> davux: and a bit outdated forum post http://www.bitcoin.org/smf/index.php?topic=1319.0
 632 2010-12-08 06:48:20 <davux> thanks
 633 2010-12-08 06:48:25 <jgarzik> davux: that change will cause bitcoin to send an HTTP POST request to a specified HTTP server, with details on the transaction
 634 2010-12-08 06:49:32 <Lysacor> Could someone remind me again if the ATi 5870 is a stable card for mining, and worth buying? or just stick with 5770 for value?
 635 2010-12-08 06:50:08 <Diablo-D3> why wouldnt it be stable?
 636 2010-12-08 06:50:23 <genjix> what's wrong with this command?
 637 2010-12-08 06:50:40 <genjix> gpg --decrypt encryptedfile --output unencryptedfile.png
 638 2010-12-08 06:50:50 <genjix> usage: gpg [options] --decrypt [filename]
 639 2010-12-08 06:51:08 <jgarzik> Lysacor: it's stable, yes
 640 2010-12-08 06:51:13 <Lysacor> not sure, each card has it's quirks from what some have said, I just don't want to spend money on a card that isn't going to perform decently (even though anything compared to what I have now would be an improvement...)
 641 2010-12-08 06:52:43 <grifferz> genjix: the --output unencryptedfile.png needs to appear before the --decrypt encryptedfile
 642 2010-12-08 06:52:49 <jgarzik> Lysacor: if you're spending money get a 59xx :)
 643 2010-12-08 06:52:50 <genjix> aha thanks
 644 2010-12-08 06:52:53 <genjix> :)
 645 2010-12-08 06:53:40 <Lysacor> yeah... I will probably have to buckle down for one of those...
 646 2010-12-08 06:54:50 <davux> jgarzik: thanks for the info – i don't think it's that usable in bitcoIM's context, but it'll probably be useful to know about that patche someday
 647 2010-12-08 06:55:03 <davux> patch*
 648 2010-12-08 06:56:42 <jgarzik> davux: then I guess you're polling with listreceivedbyaddress
 649 2010-12-08 06:59:32 * jgarzik heads to bed
 650 2010-12-08 07:01:03 <davux> yes it looks like the best approach
 651 2010-12-08 07:03:58 <DemeGeek> Is Radeon any good for mining?
 652 2010-12-08 07:06:06 <Lysacor> definitely it is
 653 2010-12-08 07:06:16 <Lysacor> much faster than Nvidia cards
 654 2010-12-08 07:06:40 <DemeGeek> I have an ATI and Radeon which should I use?
 655 2010-12-08 07:06:59 <Lysacor> ATI makes the Radeon series
 656 2010-12-08 07:07:04 <Lysacor> what model of Radeon card

 660 2010-12-08 07:07:47 <Lysacor> I don't know what that card puts out to be honest
 661 2010-12-08 07:07:59 <Lysacor> if it is capable of mining, I am also unfamiliar
 662 2010-12-08 07:08:09 <DemeGeek> 256 md DDR and 128-bit
 663 2010-12-08 07:08:18 <Lysacor> anyone else have insight into that?
 664 2010-12-08 07:09:12 <DemeGeek> guess I could try it and see if it blows up.
 665 2010-12-08 07:10:30 <Lysacor> well it depends on if it supports ATi Stream SDK, or OpenCL
 666 2010-12-08 07:10:48 <Lysacor> I just know ATI miners get huge numbers compared to Nvidia ones
 667 2010-12-08 07:11:02 <Lysacor> CUDA versus Stream, you can read about it on the bitcoin forums
 668 2010-12-08 07:15:17 <DemeGeek> I also have a MSI

 672 2010-12-08 07:16:16 <DemeGeek> yeah
 673 2010-12-08 07:17:08 <Lysacor> what card is it?
 674 2010-12-08 07:17:14 <Lysacor> what is the model?

 676 2010-12-08 07:19:22 <Lysacor> That won't mine sadly :(
 677 2010-12-08 07:19:39 <Lysacor> if it did I would be surprised
 678 2010-12-08 07:19:57 <DemeGeek> I was guessing it would be a little old

 680 2010-12-08 07:20:37 <Lysacor> really the video cards that can mine are going to be PCI Express video cards, the ATI HD5xxx series is what most miners I have heard are running, except for the Nvidia holdouts like myself :)
 681 2010-12-08 07:20:50 <Lysacor> then again I just started too
 682 2010-12-08 07:20:55 <DemeGeek> All mine are AGP
 683 2010-12-08 07:20:57 <Lysacor> so, I have little room to say much
 684 2010-12-08 07:21:19 <Lysacor> yep, you might have a hard time mining on those
 685 2010-12-08 07:21:30 <Lysacor> the other thing you could do is join a pooled mining effort
 686 2010-12-08 07:21:39 <Lysacor> much easier to setup (windows or linux, doesn't matter)
 687 2010-12-08 07:21:59 <DemeGeek> how does that work?
 688 2010-12-08 07:22:02 <Lysacor> It allows you to combine the power of your processors, with those of the other pool members to create a faster pool
 689 2010-12-08 07:22:21 <Lysacor> you share in the 50 Bitcoin reward if the pool solves the block first
 690 2010-12-08 07:22:54 <Lysacor> read: http://www.bluishcoder.co.nz/bitcoin-pool/
 691 2010-12-08 07:23:08 <Lysacor> or here http://www.bitcoin.org/smf/index.php?topic=2027.0
 692 2010-12-08 07:23:16 kisom_dev has joined
 693 2010-12-08 07:23:35 <Lysacor> you just need to have an address for the pooling client to send to the server, so you can share in the bitcoins
 694 2010-12-08 07:23:57 <Lysacor> you get a number of bitcoins based on the amount you contribute to the pool
 695 2010-12-08 07:24:12 <Lysacor> it might not be that 50 full bitcoin amount, but it is something

 707 2010-12-08 07:25:19 <Lysacor> nice! did you feed it your bitcoin address?
 708 2010-12-08 07:25:25 <DemeGeek> yes
 709 2010-12-08 07:25:35 <Lysacor> it has a windows and linux client
 710 2010-12-08 07:25:39 <DemeGeek> I know how to do that much
 711 2010-12-08 07:25:48 <Lysacor> the linux client you can compile
 712 2010-12-08 07:25:59 <Lysacor> lol I didn't mean to patronize ya
 713 2010-12-08 07:26:20 <Lysacor> if you have more than one core on your processor, you can run more than one miner on your computer
 714 2010-12-08 07:26:25 <Lysacor> more than one pooling client
 715 2010-12-08 07:26:31 <genjix> FreeMoney: you selling PS for BTC?
 716 2010-12-08 07:27:11 <Lysacor> and make sure to use the same address for all of the pooling clients you control
 717 2010-12-08 07:27:16 <genjix> i will do 0.2 for $500
 718 2010-12-08 07:27:18 <DemeGeek> why?
 719 2010-12-08 07:27:37 <Lysacor> because it is cumulative, it determines what you contribute based on the address it is sending the Bitcoins to
 720 2010-12-08 07:28:18 <DemeGeek> Does Graphics Card still count for this type?
 721 2010-12-08 07:28:18 <Lysacor> you can keep them all separate and give them different addresses if you want
 722 2010-12-08 07:28:28 <Lysacor> but it makes it harder to calculate what you are going to get
 723 2010-12-08 07:28:42 <Lysacor> Nvidia graphics cards can be used, but it is only half as fast
 724 2010-12-08 07:28:52 <DemeGeek> 0.00556898 BTC so far for me
 725 2010-12-08 07:29:02 <Lysacor> the total pool right now is processing as much as an average ATI card does by itself
 726 2010-12-08 07:29:09 <Lysacor> it will rise
 727 2010-12-08 07:29:13 <Lysacor> people connect and disconnect
 728 2010-12-08 07:29:19 <Lysacor> their contributions vary
 729 2010-12-08 07:29:30 <DemeGeek> I am gonna connect another of my pcs
 730 2010-12-08 07:29:44 <Lysacor> connect them all if you want
 731 2010-12-08 07:29:47 <Lysacor> the more the better
 732 2010-12-08 07:30:12 <DemeGeek> Do you know if the client is portable? I could run it at school too then.
 733 2010-12-08 07:30:13 <Lysacor> time to go to bed, go ahead and read more about it, defintiely a cool topic
 734 2010-12-08 07:30:14 <Lysacor> cya later!
 735 2010-12-08 07:30:24 <DemeGeek> cya!
 736 2010-12-08 07:30:25 <Lysacor> yes
 737 2010-12-08 07:30:26 <Lysacor> but
 738 2010-12-08 07:30:29 <Lysacor> be careful
 739 2010-12-08 07:30:44 <Lysacor> you are using other people's resources, and it uses 100 percent of the CPU
 740 2010-12-08 07:30:47 <Lysacor> it WILL be noticed

 765 2010-12-08 07:56:01 <genjix> and the new bitcoin has accounts. however there's no way to get a list of accounts that you have (yet)
 766 2010-12-08 07:56:27 <genjix> and I've sent 20 btc to one of these accounts but forgotten the name. So my those 20 btc are locked up :p
 767 2010-12-08 07:56:32 <joe_1> really? that sucks. may want to revert back to an old version that will give you access to all your money?
 768 2010-12-08 07:56:59 <genjix> nope cos its a new feature.

 807 2010-12-08 09:29:30 <genjix> no
 808 2010-12-08 09:29:35 <doublec> genjix, or are coins in accounts 'special' and never used for sends?
 809 2010-12-08 09:29:47 <genjix> in the new svn you can't do that
 810 2010-12-08 09:29:51 <doublec> ugh
 811 2010-12-08 09:30:00 <genjix> an account is like a separate bitcoin install
 812 2010-12-08 09:30:21 <genjix> but when you do bitcoind getbalance then it shows all of your money from all accounts together
 813 2010-12-08 09:30:49 <doublec> put some debug in getbalance that prints out the account name as it computes the balance?
 814 2010-12-08 09:30:52 <genjix> but there's no way to find a list of all your accounts or to send money from each account

 821 2010-12-08 09:44:25 <doublec> looks like it

 880 2010-12-08 10:37:30 <doublec> UukGoblin, there's a bill to be introduced to make online poker legal and regulated

 882 2010-12-08 10:37:37 <doublec> genjix, oh right, of course
 883 2010-12-08 10:37:39 <doublec> yes
 884 2010-12-08 10:37:49 <genjix> so no one can play online for 15 months
 885 2010-12-08 10:37:58 <genjix> except through our software :)
 886 2010-12-08 10:38:01 <doublec> to give newcomers (ie. casinos) a chance to get in
 887 2010-12-08 10:38:04 <genjix> we're getting investors hopefully
 888 2010-12-08 10:38:19 <genjix> if anyone wants to test, I run the stable server on #gondwana
 889 2010-12-08 10:38:25 <genjix> #pangaea is the development channel
 890 2010-12-08 10:38:27 <UukGoblin> doublec, presumably the gov are getting a cut on the rakes?

 894 2010-12-08 10:38:37 <genjix> UukGoblin: yes
 895 2010-12-08 10:38:42 <finnomenon> wouldn't a massive influx of poker dollars make the bitcoin pretty expensive?

 897 2010-12-08 10:38:58 <UukGoblin> kinda cool though, they finally came to their senses
 898 2010-12-08 10:39:01 <genjix> yep but we've setup an exchange with a fixed rate
 899 2010-12-08 10:39:05 <doublec> UukGoblin, it's bad for existing professional players as they will have trouble playing for 15 months
 900 2010-12-08 10:39:17 <UukGoblin> oh? they're not allowed to /play/?
 901 2010-12-08 10:39:22 <genjix> nope
 902 2010-12-08 10:39:23 <doublec> correct
 903 2010-12-08 10:39:27 <doublec> it becomes explicitly illegal
 904 2010-12-08 10:39:29 <genjix> for 15 months
 905 2010-12-08 10:39:38 <doublec> for 15 months
 906 2010-12-08 10:39:41 <genjix> after that *maybe* they might legalise it.
 907 2010-12-08 10:39:43 <UukGoblin> fuck. that's odd
 908 2010-12-08 10:39:47 <UukGoblin> oh, right.
 909 2010-12-08 10:39:48 <UukGoblin> maybe.
 910 2010-12-08 10:40:01 <genjix> worst laws ever :p
 911 2010-12-08 10:40:12 <doublec> and it's going to be a 'ride along' bill
 912 2010-12-08 10:40:19 <doublec> that is, attached to a must-pass piece of legislation

 914 2010-12-08 10:40:30 <genjix> our poker client. its free software
 915 2010-12-08 10:40:33 <doublec> same way as the UIGEA got introduced
 916 2010-12-08 10:40:42 <genjix> so if anyone wants to setup a room, then I'll help them.
 917 2010-12-08 10:40:50 <doublec> genjix, very nice
 918 2010-12-08 10:40:58 <genjix> thanks
 919 2010-12-08 10:41:42 <genjix> best of all it will be rake-free
 920 2010-12-08 10:41:51 <doublec> I'm unsure if non-US people will be allowed to play in the regulated US rooms
 921 2010-12-08 10:41:59 <genjix> they won't.
 922 2010-12-08 10:42:02 <doublec> It might be poker the French and Italian sites
 923 2010-12-08 10:42:05 <doublec> which completely sucks
 924 2010-12-08 10:42:05 <genjix> it will be like pokerstars.fr
 925 2010-12-08 10:42:13 <doublec> yeah
 926 2010-12-08 10:42:18 <genjix> i am glad though
 927 2010-12-08 10:42:24 <genjix> because pokersites are criminal
 928 2010-12-08 10:42:34 <genjix> the rake is insane and everything's so shady
 929 2010-12-08 10:42:43 <genjix> if bitcoin poker came a reality then it'll be for the good
 930 2010-12-08 10:42:46 <doublec> how will you make money if its rake free?
 931 2010-12-08 10:43:00 <genjix> fund through donations
 932 2010-12-08 10:43:03 <genjix> and if that doesn't work
 933 2010-12-08 10:43:07 <doublec> you want gamblers to donate?
 934 2010-12-08 10:43:09 <doublec> good luck
 935 2010-12-08 10:43:16 <genjix> then charge the top 10 volume players the operating costs
 936 2010-12-08 10:43:21 <doublec> maybe if the donation was tied to a lottery ;)
 937 2010-12-08 10:43:23 <genjix> erm, professional players
 938 2010-12-08 10:43:44 <doublec> Hah, it'll become a game where people try to be the 11th volume player
 939 2010-12-08 10:43:46 <genjix> it's in their interests to maintain a rake free site where they can play against fish
 940 2010-12-08 10:43:56 <genjix> also selling services
 941 2010-12-08 10:44:11 <genjix> like if you want a custom client or to open your own branded room with branded software
 942 2010-12-08 10:44:22 <genjix> i'll make the changes as long as they're GPL
 943 2010-12-08 10:44:35 <genjix> but you can also make non-GPL clients too.
 944 2010-12-08 10:45:09 <genjix> i want a kind of free poker thing. not so interested in making tons of money myself (although it's a bonus)

 946 2010-12-08 10:45:19 <doublec> UukGoblin, http://forumserver.twoplustwo.com/57/poker-legislation/reid-pushing-plan-legalize-u-s-online-gambling-summary-op-read-if-you-have-questions-930754/
 947 2010-12-08 10:45:23 <genjix> that's my RFC for the protocol so far
 948 2010-12-08 10:45:24 <doublec> UukGoblin, for more info
 949 2010-12-08 10:46:13 <genjix> cliffnotes, http://pokerati.com/2010/12/03/reid-online-gambling-bill-inside-the-draftuigea-strengthened-foreign-sites-wanting-us-license-must-obey/
 950 2010-12-08 10:46:59 <genjix> so if anyone here is interested in setting up a bitcoin poker room, then contact me.
 951 2010-12-08 10:47:15 <UukGoblin> genjix, it's server-based, right? and you'll kindly host the servers?
 952 2010-12-08 10:47:18 <UukGoblin> doublec, thanks
 953 2010-12-08 10:47:32 <genjix> no you host, I provide software.
 954 2010-12-08 10:48:16 <UukGoblin> and I presume the players have to trust the server?
 955 2010-12-08 10:48:24 <genjix> yes
 956 2010-12-08 10:48:42 <UukGoblin> hippich (or whatshisname) made his betco.in software available
 957 2010-12-08 10:48:53 <UukGoblin> it was a bit buggy though
 958 2010-12-08 10:48:59 <genjix> i know
 959 2010-12-08 10:49:07 <genjix> it's based off the old poker server software
 960 2010-12-08 10:49:10 <genjix> poker-network
 961 2010-12-08 10:49:13 <genjix> but it's shit.
 962 2010-12-08 10:49:27 <genjix> my protocol is the best.
 963 2010-12-08 10:49:40 <UukGoblin> 'course it is
 964 2010-12-08 10:49:46 <genjix> it runs over IRC so it's federated. I can show you now if you want.
 965 2010-12-08 10:49:58 <UukGoblin> oh
 966 2010-12-08 10:50:03 <UukGoblin> psyc is cool for stuff like that too
 967 2010-12-08 10:50:14 <UukGoblin> does it have an IRC frontend interface as an option? :-O
 968 2010-12-08 10:50:24 <genjix> yep join #gondwana
 969 2010-12-08 10:54:34 <jaromil> for a running PSYC setup and links to web frontends and other software see http://hinezumi.im
 970 2010-12-08 10:55:33 <genjix> hey jaromil
 971 2010-12-08 10:55:46 <genjix> jaromil: hinezumi doesn't let me login with my nickname genjix
 972 2010-12-08 10:56:14 <genjix> the reason I've made it so verbose in irc is because I want it to be easy to build clients
 973 2010-12-08 10:56:25 <doublec> what is psyc?
 974 2010-12-08 10:57:17 * doublec googles
 975 2010-12-08 10:57:33 <genjix> it's like a universal gateway for lots of protocols
 976 2010-12-08 10:57:34 <doublec> ooh, interesting
 977 2010-12-08 10:57:36 <genjix> a bridge
 978 2010-12-08 11:01:18 <doublec> genjix, what language did you use to write the server?
 979 2010-12-08 11:01:39 <genjix> https://github.com/genjix/kartludox/tree/master/serv
 980 2010-12-08 11:01:44 <UukGoblin> genjix, you will have problems with flooding
 981 2010-12-08 11:01:56 <UukGoblin> genjix, if you want to make it easy, make it send JSON ;-)
 982 2010-12-08 11:02:00 <UukGoblin> people can read JSON
 983 2010-12-08 11:02:03 <finnomenon> easy to build clients = easy to build bots?
 984 2010-12-08 11:02:20 <jaromil> doublec: for the theory behind: http://psyc.eu
 985 2010-12-08 11:02:43 <jaromil> it's also a "push" approach to news distribution as opposed to the pull approach of RSS
 986 2010-12-08 11:03:00 <jaromil> so it has programmable room publication to protocols like JSON
 987 2010-12-08 11:03:24 <doublec> jaromil, thanks. are you involved in development?
 988 2010-12-08 11:03:27 <jaromil> you can use normal IRC bots on it, but you can also program rooms in a simil-C language
 989 2010-12-08 11:03:28 <genjix> UukGoblin: what if the irc server has flood control though?
 990 2010-12-08 11:03:42 <UukGoblin> genjix, well, if it does, that's OK
 991 2010-12-08 11:03:57 <UukGoblin> not all of them do though, depends which one will get used
 992 2010-12-08 11:04:04 <jaromil> doublec: i'm a user, i know developers and admin the hinezumi instance, but i couldn't contribute to its code so far
 993 2010-12-08 11:04:18 <jaromil> admin is a big word, i'm not even the only one there
 994 2010-12-08 11:04:45 <jaromil> we were trying to get its development into google summer of code, to have some money to continue, but nada
 995 2010-12-08 11:05:29 <jaromil> did you register your nickname already and forgot the pass? i've seen you on the server...
 996 2010-12-08 11:06:27 <doublec> jaromil, me? Not that I recall.

1073 2010-12-08 14:11:05 <MT`AwAy> if wikileaks accepts btc, there's a handful of websites to get closed to make btc non-exchangeable

1075 2010-12-08 14:14:01 <[Noodles]> well, exchanges could be set up through TOR, i2p and such, but even if, the btc-economy is just to small, i'd think wikileaks needs some real money, our biggest bounty so far is about 2500bucks, petty cash for WL
1076 2010-12-08 14:15:09 <[Noodles]> eceonomy isnt even 1million-usd, if lots of btc are sold, we've seen it yesterday
1077 2010-12-08 14:17:18 <MT`AwAy> [Noodles]: anyway it was a wise answer from wikileaks to say "no"

1125 2010-12-08 16:22:36 <davux> I have an ATI Radeon Mobility M6 LY, what GPU miner should I use on Linux?
1126 2010-12-08 16:22:53 <Keefe> sounds old...
1127 2010-12-08 16:23:08 <davux> it is :)
1128 2010-12-08 16:23:21 <Keefe> probably can't do opencl then
1129 2010-12-08 16:23:48 <tcatm> Yup. No OpenCL on that card...
1130 2010-12-08 16:23:55 <schmooo> One of my GPUs is 90oC... o.O
1131 2010-12-08 16:24:17 <tcatm> schmooo: That's critical. You should really cool them better.
1132 2010-12-08 16:24:47 <davux> what other solution do I have?
1133 2010-12-08 16:24:58 <schmooo> mm they're gtx 460s. Thermal limit of about 110oC, even then probably safe till about 115oC.
1134 2010-12-08 16:25:05 <tcatm> davux: Get a recent GPU :)
1135 2010-12-08 16:25:14 <schmooo> It is very hot yes, but it's the bottom card of SLI.
1136 2010-12-08 16:25:21 <schmooo> Top card is at 78oC.
1137 2010-12-08 16:25:27 <davux> the problem is I only have a laptop
1138 2010-12-08 16:25:35 <tcatm> schmooo: Can you measure VRM temperature?
1139 2010-12-08 16:25:35 <Keefe> davux: you need at least something in the HD series
1140 2010-12-08 16:25:52 <schmooo> tcatm: No.
1141 2010-12-08 16:26:09 <tcatm> It's likely higher than GPU temperature.
1142 2010-12-08 16:26:36 <schmooo> yeah especially since these cards are the Palit's without the vram heatsink.
1143 2010-12-08 16:27:06 <schmooo> Might give them a bit of a rest...
1144 2010-12-08 16:28:23 <Keefe> davux: actually, it appears you need at least HD 4xxx or better
1145 2010-12-08 16:29:31 <davux> :/
1146 2010-12-08 16:29:45 <davux> ok so i guess i won't mine anytime soon
1147 2010-12-08 16:31:56 <Keefe> a gpu as old as yours wouldn't be any better than your cpu, even if ati had made it capable of gpgpu (opencl)
1148 2010-12-08 16:32:32 <Keefe> it's only in the last few years that the concept of gpgpu has taken off

1165 2010-12-08 16:50:32 <genjix> cool how do you do that?

1168 2010-12-08 16:51:15 <MT`AwAy> notices is the elegent way to send a private message to someone without opening a chat
1169 2010-12-08 16:51:18 <davux> it would be great to have a listnewtransactions <txid> JSONRPC method: would return all new transactions since txid
1170 2010-12-08 16:51:48 <MT`AwAy> davux: you can post this on my forum so I remember it :p
1171 2010-12-08 16:52:02 <davux> MT`AwAy: sure I will
1172 2010-12-08 16:52:21 <finnomenon> if all transactions are stored,  what keeps bitcoins useable for people with slow connections in 5 years?
1173 2010-12-08 16:52:39 <genjix> davux: pay me btc and i'll make you a patch
1174 2010-12-08 16:52:42 <MT`AwAy> finnomenon: we'll have to think of something by then
1175 2010-12-08 16:52:50 <genjix> :)
1176 2010-12-08 16:52:51 <finnomenon> the data every client needs in order to work is going to keep groing, right?
1177 2010-12-08 16:53:04 <MT`AwAy> finnomenon: yep
1178 2010-12-08 16:53:12 <davux> or maybe <txid> can be an additional argument to listtransactions
1179 2010-12-08 16:53:21 <MT`AwAy> it will grow even faster if more people use bitcoin
1180 2010-12-08 16:53:28 <[Noodles]> you dont need the data to use MyBitcoin, some ligh-weight clients might be available by then
1181 2010-12-08 16:53:58 <finnomenon> that also makes the system susceptible to people trying to disturb it
1182 2010-12-08 16:54:04 <finnomenon> ah, ok
1183 2010-12-08 16:54:11 <MT`AwAy> [Noodles]: I'm already thinking of this kind of thing
1184 2010-12-08 16:54:30 <MT`AwAy> server handles the chain, client handles the wallet and generate outgoing transactions, and only receive the transactions it needs from the server

1189 2010-12-08 16:55:13 <MT`AwAy> will be great for mobile devices too
1190 2010-12-08 16:55:31 <finnomenon> since right now somebody could set up scripts that generates many transactions a minute with another one of their wallets
1191 2010-12-08 16:55:33 <MT`AwAy> just need a server you can trust (and even if you don't, the server can't send bitcoins on your behalf)

1200 2010-12-08 16:57:49 <finnomenon> I hope it will be possible to keep it free
1201 2010-12-08 16:58:06 <genjix> yep should be possible
1202 2010-12-08 16:58:29 <MT`AwAy> I think chains will in priority include higher amount transactions
1203 2010-12-08 16:58:54 <finnomenon> sounds good

1206 2010-12-08 17:00:19 <genjix> generating should be on by default in the clients
1207 2010-12-08 17:00:23 <genjix> and run at 10% speed
1208 2010-12-08 17:00:59 <MT`AwAy> genjix: nah, generating may have some really bad impact on some hosts, even at 10%
1209 2010-12-08 17:01:18 <genjix> they can always turn it off
1210 2010-12-08 17:01:47 <MT`AwAy> if they are intelligent enough
1211 2010-12-08 17:01:53 <genjix> i would generate but it makes my laptop go crazy
1212 2010-12-08 17:02:16 <finnomenon> I would generate  but my average block would take 5 years

1219 2010-12-08 17:07:21 <genjix> cool
1220 2010-12-08 17:08:18 <gavinandresen> genjix: By the way... my python bitcointools  has an --accounts  flag that'll dig out the account names from the wallet. I think your patch misses accounts that are destinations of "move" that haven't received any coins yet
1221 2010-12-08 17:08:27 <davux> MT`AwAy: http://www.bitcoin.org/smf/index.php?topic=2151.0
1222 2010-12-08 17:09:16 <genjix> not sure what that is.
1223 2010-12-08 17:09:37 <genjix> ah this move command is very useful!
1224 2010-12-08 17:09:43 <gavinandresen> genjix:  For example:   ./bitcoind move ACCOUNT1 ACCOUNT2 50    ....
1225 2010-12-08 17:09:46 <genjix> i've been sending coins to myself before :p
1226 2010-12-08 17:10:10 <gavinandresen> genjix:  your patch won't list ACCOUNT2 if there's no address associated with it (which there might not be)
1227 2010-12-08 17:10:28 <davux> genjix: what's a possible use of moving coins from one account to another?
1228 2010-12-08 17:10:53 <gavinandresen> I'm using move with ClearCoin to keep track of fees paid-- I move the coins to a FEES account.
1229 2010-12-08 17:10:58 <genjix> davux: this is the problem I had was lots of coins spread over many diferent accounts
1230 2010-12-08 17:11:17 <genjix> davux: and when you want to send coins you *must* specify an account
1231 2010-12-08 17:11:30 <genjix> so if I have 10 btc in 3 accounts then it's a pain in the ass
1232 2010-12-08 17:11:39 <davux> genjix: what about sendtoaddress?
1233 2010-12-08 17:11:43 <gavinandresen> genjix:  actually, you can still use sendtoaddress
1234 2010-12-08 17:12:05 <genjix> ah i didnt know. i asked about this on the forums and irc :p
1235 2010-12-08 17:12:07 <genjix> nice
1236 2010-12-08 17:12:15 <davux> genjix: http://www.bitcoin.org/wiki/doku.php?id=api
1237 2010-12-08 17:12:32 <genjix> yep i use bitcoind help but somehow missed that
1238 2010-12-08 17:12:49 <gavinandresen> genjix:   sendfrom ''   is also allowed to "go negative" -- you can always send from that account, if you have enough coins in your wallet.
1239 2010-12-08 17:13:05 <davux> gavinandresen: really?
1240 2010-12-08 17:13:09 <gavinandresen> Yup
1241 2010-12-08 17:13:11 <genjix> thats weird
1242 2010-12-08 17:13:28 <davux> so that it will "steal" from other accounts if the one you want to use doesn't have the coins?
1243 2010-12-08 17:13:38 <gavinandresen> sendfrom ''  == sendtoaddress    : Every send has to be debited from SOME account
1244 2010-12-08 17:14:03 <genjix> that sounds undesireable
1245 2010-12-08 17:14:16 <davux> it could just assume there's not enough coins and fail, just like when you don't have enough coins in your wallet
1246 2010-12-08 17:14:34 <gavinandresen> The rule is:  Sum(all account balances) == wallet balance
1247 2010-12-08 17:14:45 <davux> or at least accept an option to control that behaviour
1248 2010-12-08 17:14:53 <gavinandresen> So if I had 100 coins in ACCOUNT1, and I sendtoaddress 100 coins...
1249 2010-12-08 17:15:15 <gavinandresen> Balances would be:    ACCOUNT1:  100,   empty-string-account:  -100
1250 2010-12-08 17:15:55 <davux> if you use sendtoaddress it's another matter, but I thought we were talking about sendfrom
1251 2010-12-08 17:16:12 <gavinandresen> davux:  sendfrom '
1252 2010-12-08 17:16:23 <gavinandresen> davux:  sendfrom '' == sendtoaddress
1253 2010-12-08 17:16:43 <gavinandresen> If you don't want that behavior, never sendtoaddress and never  sendfrom ''
1254 2010-12-08 17:17:08 <davux> gavinandresen: oh, sorry, I didn't notice the '' in your initial statement
1255 2010-12-08 17:17:17 <gavinandresen> I've actually been tempted to create/experiment with a patch that disables both sendtoaddress and sendfrom ''
1256 2010-12-08 17:17:47 <davux> so sendfrom foo is *not* allowed to take coins from another account, right?
1257 2010-12-08 17:17:49 <gavinandresen> (note the '' empty-string-account at the end of that last message....)
1258 2010-12-08 17:17:51 <genjix> please don't :p sendtoaddress from all accounts is very useful
1259 2010-12-08 17:18:07 <gavinandresen> davux:  right, sendfrom foo will fail if account foo doesn't have enough coins.... EXCEPT:
1260 2010-12-08 17:18:08 <genjix> i thought '' was just another account
1261 2010-12-08 17:18:24 <genjix> so it seems kind of weird that '' is treated as a special case
1262 2010-12-08 17:18:32 <gavinandresen> ... if the sendfrom generates a transaction fee, the 'foo' account may go negative.
1263 2010-12-08 17:18:44 <davux> gavinandresen: fair enough
1264 2010-12-08 17:18:58 <davux> what's the tx fee rule?
1265 2010-12-08 17:19:07 <gavinandresen> genjix:  agreed, it is weird.
1266 2010-12-08 17:19:08 <genjix> are fees only generated when you allow a transaction to have a fee?
1267 2010-12-08 17:19:41 NOTtheMessiah has left ("Leaving")
1268 2010-12-08 17:20:17 <gavinandresen> Transaction fee rule is:   sendfrom ACCT N  will always succeed if the account has N or more coins in it.
1269 2010-12-08 17:20:28 <gavinandresen> ... and transaction fees are always charged to the account.
1270 2010-12-08 17:20:56 <gavinandresen> genjix:  no, you can't control when fees are generated, and right now there's now to say
1271 2010-12-08 17:21:03 <gavinandresen> "don't send if there will be fees"
1272 2010-12-08 17:21:04 <davux> *after* the "N or more coins" rule is evaluated
1273 2010-12-08 17:21:24 <genjix> but i dont want to pay fees for sending bitcoins
1274 2010-12-08 17:21:38 <gavinandresen> davux:  yup.  So if account contains N coins, and there F in fees, then after the send account balance would be -F
1275 2010-12-08 17:21:55 <gavinandresen> genjix:  generally you won't.
1276 2010-12-08 17:22:01 <nanotube> gavinandresen: somehow i was pretty sure it was up to the client whether to send a fee or not...?
1277 2010-12-08 17:22:33 <gavinandresen> nanotube:  mostly.... but if you work hard, you can generate transactions the require fees
1278 2010-12-08 17:22:48 <genjix> like if I have a business and person X deposits
1279 2010-12-08 17:22:53 <davux> gavinandresen: isn't there any way to predict the value of F and do the transaction only if the account has (N+F) or more coins in it?
1280 2010-12-08 17:23:03 <nanotube> gavinandresen: a client that is not generating doesn't even have information on whether a fee would be required to be included in the block... because it doesn't know how many outstanding txns there are?
1281 2010-12-08 17:23:06 <genjix> I don't want them to be charged fees
1282 2010-12-08 17:23:08 <gavinandresen> Example of a txn that would require a fee:  Send 1,000 bitcoins, when you had nothing but bit-pennies in your wallet.
1283 2010-12-08 17:23:17 <gavinandresen> davux:  no
1284 2010-12-08 17:23:53 <gavinandresen> nanotube:  right, the fee (can) depend on what prior transactions are chosen from the wallet.
1285 2010-12-08 17:24:17 <nanotube> ah well, those yes... but though there is a fee rule, there could be generators that take no fees, so a client could send 10k bitpennies out with no fee...
1286 2010-12-08 17:25:20 <gavinandresen> nanotube:  Sure, could be, but you'd have to hack your bitcoin to generate a large-transaction-with-no-fee.
1287 2010-12-08 17:25:37 <nanotube> gavinandresen: ah i see
1288 2010-12-08 17:27:10 <gavinandresen> genjix:  if the person is depositing (sending you coins), then the send/fees happen on their side.
1289 2010-12-08 17:27:53 <genjix> yep but not good for confidence if it looks like im scamming their 0.3 btc for 0.05 btc without telling them...
1290 2010-12-08 17:28:52 <gavinandresen> genjix:  For ClearCoin, after a send I check to see if a txn fee was paid (using gettransaction <txid>, sendfrom gives me the txid) and, if it was, reimburse the account for the fee (using move)
1291 2010-12-08 17:29:16 <genjix> ok
1292 2010-12-08 17:32:43 <genjix> gavinandresen: where is your bitcointool located?

1297 2010-12-08 17:33:50 <zerwas> I am trying to use bitcoin 0.3.17 beta GUI on Ubuntu 10.10 64bit, but the statusbar stays empty
1298 2010-12-08 17:34:14 <zerwas> Does it just take some time until i get connections?
1299 2010-12-08 17:34:22 <genjix> how long?
1300 2010-12-08 17:34:26 <genjix> maybe 30 secs at most
1301 2010-12-08 17:34:30 <davux> gavinandresen: how do you check if a fee was paid?
1302 2010-12-08 17:34:35 <genjix> does it show any blocks
1303 2010-12-08 17:34:40 <zerwas> genjix> had it running like 15 minutes or so
1304 2010-12-08 17:34:43 <genjix> davux: check the tx id
1305 2010-12-08 17:34:51 <gavinandresen> davux:  call gettransaction <txid>  and look at the "fee" :  field
1306 2010-12-08 17:35:04 <genjix> For ClearCoin, after a send I check to see if  a txn fee was paid (using gettransaction <txid>,  sendfrom gives me the txid) and, if it was, reimburse  the account for the fee (using move)
1307 2010-12-08 17:35:21 <genjix> zerwas: does it show any blocks in the bottom?
1308 2010-12-08 17:35:25 <genjix> or nothing
1309 2010-12-08 17:35:29 <davux> i can't wait for 0.18 to be released
1310 2010-12-08 17:35:31 <zerwas> genjix> nothing at the bottom
1311 2010-12-08 17:35:46 <zerwas> should i just wait for 0.18?
1312 2010-12-08 17:35:48 <genjix> weird. that's not normal
1313 2010-12-08 17:35:54 <genjix> no it should work fine
1314 2010-12-08 17:36:19 <gavinandresen> zerwas:  tail -f ~/.bitcoin/debug.log      .... will show you what bitcoin is up to
1315 2010-12-08 17:36:42 <davux> getbalance <account>, gettransaction and listtransaction will be just perfect for bitcoIM
1316 2010-12-08 17:36:51 <davux> listtransactions*
1317 2010-12-08 17:37:18 <gavinandresen> davux:  cool. 0.18 should be out soon
1318 2010-12-08 17:37:41 <davux> gavinandresen: do you have an idea how soon?
1319 2010-12-08 17:37:48 <gavinandresen> Next day or three.
1320 2010-12-08 17:37:59 <genjix> oh nice!
1321 2010-12-08 17:39:27 <davux> !
1322 2010-12-08 17:39:34 <zerwas> gavinandresen> it's going crazy with many messages.. "received: block (216 bytes)" .. SetBestChain: ...ProcessBlock: ACCEPTED ..
1323 2010-12-08 17:40:00 <genjix> looks like its downloading blocks but you say there's nothing in the status bar... idk
1324 2010-12-08 17:40:01 <gavinandresen> zerwas: that's normal, it is downloading all 90,000-some blocks inthe block chain
1325 2010-12-08 17:40:13 <zerwas> gavinandresen> log file is 8 MB already... 8,2 ... 8,3
1326 2010-12-08 17:40:20 <zerwas> ah, okay
1327 2010-12-08 17:40:33 <genjix> gavinandresen: but surely it should show show in the status bar the block count?
1328 2010-12-08 17:40:55 <nanotube> yes, it should...
1329 2010-12-08 17:41:19 <gavinandresen> Yeah, seems like it aught to.  Although I admit I almost never run the GUI bitcoin, I'm an old crufty command-liner
1330 2010-12-08 17:41:39 <genjix> im forced to run command line cos I dont have wx 2.9 :p
1331 2010-12-08 17:42:39 <gavinandresen> I'm going to be quiet now and go write more AJAX code

1392 2010-12-08 19:25:11 <Teppy> And they define money very carefully.

1431 2010-12-08 19:44:45 <kiba> because bitcoin are divisible to 8th place
1432 2010-12-08 19:44:56 <kiba> which is plenty enough for economic transaction in the future
1433 2010-12-08 19:45:51 <kiba> you have to understand, bitcoin are just integers...they are not atomic

1487 2010-12-08 20:07:49 <kiba> are using economic anaylsis on a daily basis
1488 2010-12-08 20:08:31 <tcatm> I also noticed an increase of visitors on my site.
1489 2010-12-08 20:09:40 <kiba> reddit?
1490 2010-12-08 20:09:42 <genjix> tcatm: which site?
1491 2010-12-08 20:09:55 <kiba> bitcoincharts.com?
1492 2010-12-08 20:10:04 <tcatm> genjix: bitcoincharts
1493 2010-12-08 20:10:56 <genjix> oh very nice
1494 2010-12-08 20:11:18 <kiba> volume for Japanese yen is picking up
1495 2010-12-08 20:12:36 <tcatm> I added USD/currency volume to the order book today.
1496 2010-12-08 20:13:23 <kiba> what that supposed to mean?
1497 2010-12-08 20:13:35 <tcatm> sum(volume * price)
1498 2010-12-08 20:14:54 <kiba> where is that?
1499 2010-12-08 20:15:16 <tcatm> http://bitcoincharts.com/markets/mtgoxUSD.html
1500 2010-12-08 20:15:39 <tcatm> Column BTC and USD are accumulated volume.
1501 2010-12-08 20:15:53 <tcatm> I.e. you can see how much the price will drop if you sell 5000 BTC
1502 2010-12-08 20:16:06 <tcatm> and how much USD you'd get
1503 2010-12-08 20:18:00 <kiba> price sure can drop so easily
1504 2010-12-08 20:18:56 <kiba> I wanna go home.

1506 2010-12-08 20:22:10 <albatross> tcatm...did you move the order book below order history or is my browser acting up?
1507 2010-12-08 20:22:31 <tcatm> oh I hoped that wouldn't happend. Which browser are you using?
1508 2010-12-08 20:22:56 <albatross> firefox 3.6.8...winxp...
1509 2010-12-08 20:23:08 <tcatm> hm. Did you try to refresh the page?
1510 2010-12-08 20:23:13 <genjix> winks-p OS
1511 2010-12-08 20:23:43 <albatross> hmmm...that fixed it. weird
1512 2010-12-08 20:24:11 <tcatm> There really should be a way to force a reload of stylesheets in such cases.
1513 2010-12-08 20:24:36 <albatross> stylesheet was cached i take it?
1514 2010-12-08 20:24:39 <genjix> There really should be a way to force a reinstall of operating systems in such cases.
1515 2010-12-08 20:24:50 <tcatm> yep
1516 2010-12-08 20:24:58 <tcatm> genjix: oh, that's pretty easy with exploits

1523 2010-12-08 20:32:41 <kiba> the discussion about DomainChain is still ongoing...
1524 2010-12-08 20:33:06 <kiba> hopes people will agree on it soon so we can finally beat those .p2p folks
1525 2010-12-08 20:41:19 <genjix> why do you want to "beat" them. we're all writing free software together.
1526 2010-12-08 20:42:36 <kiba> for the glory and strength of the bitcoin tribe!
1527 2010-12-08 20:45:17 <tcatm> It doesn't matter whether you are first or not if you have good marketing.
1528 2010-12-08 20:46:27 <kiba> ugh

1533 2010-12-08 20:57:22 <mikegogulski> in case anyone wants nearly 20GB of the original wikileaks site: magnet:?xt=urn:btih:IQE4E7OYK7FDXHWIF4KKE4GDBBW52RFX
1534 2010-12-08 20:58:20 <CarlFK> .00000001 is the smallest unit. http://www.bitcoin.org/faq#How_divisible_are_Bitcoins   so call that a unit.   6.8 bil people, 21mil max BTCs.   21/.00000001/6800 = 308823.  so each person will have an average of 300k units.
1535 2010-12-08 20:59:16 <CarlFK> add companies into the equation, (no clue the number) it seems like it cold drop the average pretty low
1536 2010-12-08 20:59:38 <CarlFK> not sure how to deal with the millions that have 'nothing' right now
1537 2010-12-08 20:59:45 <genjix> lol 6 bil people using bitcoins
1538 2010-12-08 20:59:58 <genjix> dont be too ambitious
1539 2010-12-08 21:00:06 <kiba> no currencies was ever that widespread
1540 2010-12-08 21:00:16 <CarlFK> but isn't that kinda the point?
1541 2010-12-08 21:00:35 <kiba> what is our point?
1542 2010-12-08 21:00:41 tech9iner has joined
1543 2010-12-08 21:01:26 <altamic> a decentralized monetary system with builtin integrity?
1544 2010-12-08 21:03:11 <nanotube> CarlFK: same way you deal with other currency conversion - people can exchange $anything for bitcoin.
1545 2010-12-08 21:03:15 <kiba> waste too much time online
1546 2010-12-08 21:06:15 <lolcat> If we run out of bitcoin we make bitcoinv6
1547 2010-12-08 21:06:37 <lolcat> Then everyone have billions of bitcoinv6'es
1548 2010-12-08 21:06:43 <lolcat> Like ipv6
1549 2010-12-08 21:07:28 <CarlFK> heh
1550 2010-12-08 21:07:32 <Diablo-D3> lolcat: no
1551 2010-12-08 21:07:37 <Diablo-D3> the internet would be unable to route that
1552 2010-12-08 21:07:40 <lolcat> Diablo-D3: No?
1553 2010-12-08 21:07:47 kiba has quit (Ping timeout: 265 seconds)
1554 2010-12-08 21:08:02 <lolcat> Well, we could just make a new internet...
1555 2010-12-08 21:08:22 <jgarzik> sirius-m suggests #bitcoin-talk
1556 2010-12-08 21:08:30 <jgarzik> for non-dev discussions
1557 2010-12-08 21:08:34 <Diablo-D3> meh, we dont need more bitcoin channels
1558 2010-12-08 21:08:36 <Diablo-D3> just use this one
1559 2010-12-08 21:08:51 <tcatm> so we have #bitcoin-discussion, #bitcoin-talk and #bitcoin for non-dev?
1560 2010-12-08 21:08:59 <genjix> jgarzik: #bitcoin
1561 2010-12-08 21:09:11 <genjix> because when i hear of a new free software project
1562 2010-12-08 21:09:20 <genjix> i just go to #whatever on freenode
1563 2010-12-08 21:09:36 <jgarzik> genjix: http://www.bitcoin.org/smf/index.php?topic=2154.msg28257#msg28257
1564 2010-12-08 21:09:44 <tcatm> there are often users who get redirected to #bitcoin-dev in #bitcoin
1565 2010-12-08 21:10:03 <jgarzik> tcatm: #bitcoin-discussion would be retired, presumably
1566 2010-12-08 21:10:12 <Diablo-D3> we dont need more channels
1567 2010-12-08 21:10:12 <genjix> contact freenode
1568 2010-12-08 21:10:14 <jgarzik> #bitcoin is IMO best name... but ownership is difficult
1569 2010-12-08 21:10:16 <genjix> they will restore the channel
1570 2010-12-08 21:10:27 <genjix> get gavinandresen to help us
1571 2010-12-08 21:10:42 <tcatm> jgarzik: we could ask all users to leave the channel
1572 2010-12-08 21:10:54 <jgarzik> tcatm: how do you ask a bitcoin client a question?  :)
1573 2010-12-08 21:11:07 <tcatm> wasn't there a script bug?
1574 2010-12-08 21:11:37 <lolcat> does the bitcoin client have a irc client?
1575 2010-12-08 21:11:45 <tcatm> those clients should be upgraded anyway
1576 2010-12-08 21:11:55 <jgarzik> lolcat: yes
1577 2010-12-08 21:12:01 <lolcat> Oo
1578 2010-12-08 21:12:09 <tcatm> or another idea: would it be possible to gain op during a netsplit?
1579 2010-12-08 21:12:20 <jgarzik> tcatm: well sure.  only ancient clients connect to freenode #bitcoin anyway.
1580 2010-12-08 21:12:34 <genjix> just get gavin to contact freenode. they will restore the channel to him.
1581 2010-12-08 21:12:39 <lolcat> jgarzik: What do new clients connect to?
1582 2010-12-08 21:12:44 <Diablo-D3> we do NOT need another damned channel
1583 2010-12-08 21:12:48 <Diablo-D3> Im already in three
1584 2010-12-08 21:12:53 <jgarzik> lolcat: irc.smutfairy.net or somesuch
1585 2010-12-08 21:13:05 <lolcat> I thougth it was p2p...
1586 2010-12-08 21:13:08 <Diablo-D3> no other project whos community I belong to am I in three channels for
1587 2010-12-08 21:13:11 <Diablo-D3> jgarzik: no
1588 2010-12-08 21:13:13 <nelisky> we should open #bitcoin-channels to explain which channels bitcoin has
1589 2010-12-08 21:13:13 <nelisky> :p
1590 2010-12-08 21:13:16 <Diablo-D3> its lfnet
1591 2010-12-08 21:13:24 <lolcat> nelisky: Good idea
1592 2010-12-08 21:13:28 <jgarzik> heh
1593 2010-12-08 21:13:33 <lolcat> Diablo-D3: Most have two
1594 2010-12-08 21:13:35 <Diablo-D3> which is arguably just as bad
1595 2010-12-08 21:13:40 <Diablo-D3> lolcat: no
1596 2010-12-08 21:13:44 <Diablo-D3> we really dont need the irc at all
1597 2010-12-08 21:13:55 <jgarzik> lolcat: you cannot P2P without first knowing at least one network address of a P2P node
1598 2010-12-08 21:13:57 <nelisky> well, except for -otc
1599 2010-12-08 21:13:59 <nelisky> and -dev
1600 2010-12-08 21:14:07 <nelisky> and -discussion
1601 2010-12-08 21:14:08 <lolcat> jgarzik: Azerus does that
1602 2010-12-08 21:14:14 * tech9iner wonders off to #bitcoin then.. 
1603 2010-12-08 21:14:17 <Diablo-D3> az does it through the tracker
1604 2010-12-08 21:14:21 <Diablo-D3> and its not az
1605 2010-12-08 21:14:26 <Diablo-D3> its bittorrent in general
1606 2010-12-08 21:14:27 <nelisky> I'd agree with Diablo-D3, no need for irc, except for what we use in irc
1607 2010-12-08 21:14:37 <Diablo-D3> most bittorrent clients share peers with other peers
1608 2010-12-08 21:14:49 <lolcat> nelisky: Diablo-D3 DHT
1609 2010-12-08 21:15:02 <Diablo-D3> yes, DHT.
1610 2010-12-08 21:15:11 <genjix> < Diablo-D3> we really dont need the irc at all  <--- says the guy who's spamming IRC 24/7 :D
1611 2010-12-08 21:15:16 <jgarzik> lolcat: sorry, it's impossible.  it is a fundamental bootstrapping problem.  You MUST have a bootstrap method, in order to get first P2P address.  bitcoin has compiled-in seeds, and IRC seed.
1612 2010-12-08 21:15:20 <genjix> whatevr dude.
1613 2010-12-08 21:15:27 <nelisky> oh
1614 2010-12-08 21:15:37 <jgarzik> and -addnode
1615 2010-12-08 21:15:41 <nelisky> Diablo-D3: that's what I get for trying to be funny, heh
1616 2010-12-08 21:15:42 <lolcat> jgarzik: Hard-coded?
1617 2010-12-08 21:16:01 <lolcat> jgarzik: I would think it would be safer with DHT + decentralized trackers
1618 2010-12-08 21:16:15 <Diablo-D3> genjix: I am?
1619 2010-12-08 21:16:17 <jgarzik> lolcat: yes, bitcoin has a list of hardcoded addresses compiled into bitcoin.  And, most of those seeds are now down / unreachable.
1620 2010-12-08 21:16:40 <genjix> Diablo-D3: joke. but you chat a lot so its funny hearing you say you "dont need irc"
1621 2010-12-08 21:16:43 <lolcat> jgarzik: Wouldn't an easy configurable file be desirable?
1622 2010-12-08 21:16:45 <genjix> irc = best. i hate forums
1623 2010-12-08 21:16:50 <Diablo-D3> the client doesnt need irc
1624 2010-12-08 21:16:56 <Diablo-D3> and using lfnet for this isnt really useful
1625 2010-12-08 21:16:59 <appamatto> I've been listening to econtalk based on recommendations from here
1626 2010-12-08 21:17:00 <Diablo-D3> it should be done via a freenode channel
1627 2010-12-08 21:17:10 <Diablo-D3> say, #bitcoin-peersearch
1628 2010-12-08 21:17:12 <appamatto> Russ Roberts doesn't seem particularly libertarian
1629 2010-12-08 21:17:15 <jgarzik> lolcat: against, bootstrapping.  you need at least one address to contact DHT and get other nodes.
1630 2010-12-08 21:17:39 <jgarzik> lolcat: DHT buys us nothing, and just gets in the way.  once you have bootstrapped, bitcoin P2P network gives us plenty of addresses.
1631 2010-12-08 21:17:56 <jgarzik> s/against/again/
1632 2010-12-08 21:18:14 genjix has left ()
1633 2010-12-08 21:18:24 <Diablo-D3> DHT does nothing
1634 2010-12-08 21:18:25 <lolcat> jgarzik: I understand that. If you have a "tracker.conf" or whatever. And a tracker daemon anyone can run on a server. Then you can connect to any trackers you feel like, and add or remove them when they go down.
1635 2010-12-08 21:18:29 <Diablo-D3> we already have an equivilent, lolcat
1636 2010-12-08 21:18:37 <Diablo-D3> bitcoin clients tell other bitcoin clients of other bitcoin clients
1637 2010-12-08 21:18:48 <jgarzik> lolcat: as for configuration file, that's what we already have.  You can add 'addnode' addresses to bitcoin.conf today.
1638 2010-12-08 21:18:53 <Diablo-D3> its the tracker that we dont have a good equiv of
1639 2010-12-08 21:19:03 <lolcat> Ok
1640 2010-12-08 21:19:07 <jgarzik> all command line parameters can be used in bitcoin.conf.
1641 2010-12-08 21:19:10 <lolcat> But trackers is a good idea?
1642 2010-12-08 21:19:11 <Diablo-D3> and the client->irc thing is as good as it gets for such an application
1643 2010-12-08 21:19:16 <Diablo-D3> it just needs to be removed from lfnet
1644 2010-12-08 21:19:17 <jgarzik> lolcat: no trackers are pointless
1645 2010-12-08 21:19:22 <Diablo-D3> and moved to a major irc network
1646 2010-12-08 21:19:42 <lolcat> I would feel like it would be safer to use several decentralized trackers
1647 2010-12-08 21:19:46 <jgarzik> lolcat: as soon as you connect to a single node on the P2P network, you have all the addresses you need.  it is it's own tracker.

1649 2010-12-08 21:19:53 <jgarzik> lolcat: bitcoin P2P network already does that.
1650 2010-12-08 21:20:07 <tech9iner> so mates.. is there a 'central' or 'main' forums for english bitcoin with more than '5 posts' re http://www.bitcoinme.com/discussion-forum.html#/ perhaps please?
1651 2010-12-08 21:20:23 <Diablo-D3> tech9iner: yet, its on the bitcoin website
1652 2010-12-08 21:20:26 <appamatto> bitcoin.org
1653 2010-12-08 21:20:29 <jgarzik> ...but you need some method of bootstrapping, so that you find the bitcoin network.
1654 2010-12-08 21:20:33 <lolcat> jgarzik: So if I want a private tracker, I just run bitcoin on the server and do an addnode to its domain?
1655 2010-12-08 21:20:43 <appamatto> or just google search for "bitcoin forums"
1656 2010-12-08 21:20:47 <tech9iner> Diablo-D3: ty muchly..

1658 2010-12-08 21:21:07 <appamatto> Pretty amazing that you found the irc channel but can't find the high traffic forums
1659 2010-12-08 21:21:12 <jgarzik> lolcat: every bitcoin node is a "tracker", in the sense that ALL bitcoin nodes store ALL addresses for the entire network.
1660 2010-12-08 21:21:28 <lolcat> Thats sounds a tad impractical...

1675 2010-12-08 21:23:25 * tech9iner never joined new found irc channels sans the atypical 'idiot' refs .. seems every irc group has least 3 such sods.. 
1676 2010-12-08 21:23:41 <Diablo-D3> tech9iner: what, total faggots pissing in the public pool?
1677 2010-12-08 21:23:48 <Diablo-D3> its roughly 1 for every 50 people
1678 2010-12-08 21:23:55 <shortcircuit> jgarzik: Sure, but I don't trust a generic noun like 'paper' to give me a relaible result. A domain to restrict the search to, or even a name of an author, would be more useful.
1679 2010-12-08 21:24:00 <shortcircuit> I'll try it, though.

1681 2010-12-08 21:24:02 <tech9iner> rofl.. indeed
1682 2010-12-08 21:24:33 <appamatto> I wasn't trying to insult you, I just genuinely thought it was funny that you could find an irc channel but not the bitcoin forums
1683 2010-12-08 21:24:45 <albatross> is it possible to run multiple bitcoind per machine? i don't see a setting to vary the port (other than the rpc port)
1684 2010-12-08 21:25:07 <jgarzik> albatross: you have to hack the source to run multiple bitcoind's on same IP address
1685 2010-12-08 21:25:12 <shortcircuit> k, found it, I assume. (Bitcoin: A Peer-to-Peer Electronic Cash System. Authored by Satoshi Nakamoto)
1686 2010-12-08 21:25:22 <appamatto> Yup, that's it
1687 2010-12-08 21:25:32 <albatross> jgarzik: ok, thanks
1688 2010-12-08 21:25:42 <Diablo-D3> best line ever spoken: "I drew an all-girl orgy because I didn't want to draw some guy's butt."
1689 2010-12-08 21:26:00 <jgarzik> albatross: you can create multiple virtual machines, on the same physical machine, each with an instance of bitcoind
1690 2010-12-08 21:26:13 <shortcircuit> FWIW, My preferred search engine, DuckDuckGo, didn't show it at all with those keywords.  Google found me the FAQ, where I then found the relevant paper.
1691 2010-12-08 21:26:15 <jgarzik> albatross: http://yyz.us/bitcoin/patch.bitcoin-bindaddr
1692 2010-12-08 21:26:25 <shortcircuit> Anyway, have what I came for. Thanks.
1693 2010-12-08 21:27:16 <tech9iner> Diablo-D3: ie iphone's 'there's an app for that' perspective.. i actually created a factoid for such '''irc types''' in my home channel of many yrs for our SUSEhelp bot hehe..

1695 2010-12-08 21:27:54 <tech9iner> appamatto: no worries btw.. you'll note my immediate ''rofl'' heeh
1696 2010-12-08 21:28:29 <appamatto> shortcircuit, how do you like DuckDuckGo?
1697 2010-12-08 21:28:31 * tech9iner is too thick skinned for petty pompASSness on irc.. 
1698 2010-12-08 21:29:12 <albatross> jgarzik: there are two ports total in use, right? 8333 for everything and 8332 for json-rpc. the patch you pointed me to seems to only affect the json-rpc side, no?
1699 2010-12-08 21:29:52 <shortcircuit> appamatto: It works incredibly well for me.
1700 2010-12-08 21:30:04 <jgarzik> albatross: crapola.  you're right.  sorry about that.  I had another patch for 8333, but it disappeared.  oh well, it's easy enough to grep for 8333 and 18333.
1701 2010-12-08 21:30:11 <tech9iner> btw re the bruce wagner podcast listened to from last wk or so mates.. he was on bout new retailers etc adding bitcoin acceptance to dozen + a day.. yet his bitcoinshop site's fugly spreadsheet doesnt mesh..
1702 2010-12-08 21:30:18 <appamatto> shortcircuit, I'll have to try it.  It didn't even occur to me to find a privacy-focused search engine

1705 2010-12-08 21:31:05 <shortcircuit> appamatto: That's not even why I started with it. It just tends to give me better results, given the right keywords.
1706 2010-12-08 21:31:23 <appamatto> shortcircuit two birds with one stone, then :p
1707 2010-12-08 21:32:29 <shortcircuit> appamatto: Right. :)  I'm not sure exactly how it does it, but it tends to come up with the most authorative page for the keyword, for each of multiple possible fields of interest.
1708 2010-12-08 21:32:34 * altamic uses DuckDuckGo too
1709 2010-12-08 21:33:15 <albatross> jgarzik: also, i don't want the clients to connect to either the real net or test net. '-connect' makes sense for all nodes. but how about the first one to be started? -connect to itself?

1730 2010-12-08 22:29:24 <jgarzik> tcatm: a pittance.  maybe $1-2/day
1731 2010-12-08 22:29:58 <tcatm> That's better than my projectwonderful adbox at $0.01/day
1732 2010-12-08 22:30:30 <tcatm> + I hope adsense won't slow down the rendering as much as pw does
1733 2010-12-08 22:30:55 <jgarzik> tcatm: they pre-size the box to speed up layout
1734 2010-12-08 22:31:20 <tcatm> that's not the problem. the problem is javascript in the middle of <body>
1735 2010-12-08 22:32:11 <tcatm> It's delaying rendering by 122ms even with adblock enabled.
1736 2010-12-08 22:37:21 <jgarzik> tcatm: JS will always slow you down a bit.  that is unavoidable.  faster servers (google vs. some tiny guy on a VPS) and faster network help a lot too, of course.

1767 2010-12-08 23:26:07 <altamic> real coders implement their own serialization routines with C++ templates and recursive functions

1777 2010-12-08 23:36:26 <davex__> altamic, but java is a good thing?
1778 2010-12-08 23:36:53 <davex__> i'd concede the jvm is a good thing, at least.
1779 2010-12-08 23:37:11 <Diablo-D3> altamic: c++ was never a good thing
1780 2010-12-08 23:39:27 <AAA_awright> You say that as if C++ isn't a good thing
1781 2010-12-08 23:39:46 <altamic> davex_: the answer is ... it depends on you
1782 2010-12-08 23:39:46 <altamic> java as the language I mean
1783 2010-12-08 23:39:51 <altamic> the platform is quite good
1784 2010-12-08 23:40:13 <ArtForz> java the language is decent, maybe a bit explicit
1785 2010-12-08 23:40:58 <Diablo-D3> nothing wrong with explicit
1786 2010-12-08 23:41:14 <Diablo-D3> java doesn't quite make it to "too verbose"
1787 2010-12-08 23:41:16 <davex__> unless it gets in your way too much
1788 2010-12-08 23:41:16 <gavinandresen> The older I get, the more I appreciate duck typing.
1789 2010-12-08 23:41:33 <ArtForz> yep, duck typing is fun
1790 2010-12-08 23:41:45 <Diablo-D3> gavinandresen: you can do a limited form of duck typing without magic in java
1791 2010-12-08 23:41:46 <altamic> gavin: I do agree
1792 2010-12-08 23:41:57 <davex__> plus i want closures.
1793 2010-12-08 23:42:03 <Diablo-D3> java has closures now
1794 2010-12-08 23:42:09 <davex__> it does?
1795 2010-12-08 23:43:27 <xelister_> c++ > java
1796 2010-12-08 23:43:57 <gavinandresen> #int(int,int) plus = #(int x, int y) x+y;   ..... yeah, I'm too old to type 'int' five times....
1797 2010-12-08 23:45:10 <Diablo-D3> davex__: 7 added them
1798 2010-12-08 23:45:19 <davex__> hmm, will look into that
1799 2010-12-08 23:45:32 <Diablo-D3> gavinandresen: meh, technically I dont even have to type int
1800 2010-12-08 23:45:35 <Diablo-D3> I could type T
1801 2010-12-08 23:45:40 <Diablo-D3> and then have fun with generics

1805 2010-12-08 23:58:07 <davux> weird... on the testnet, listtransactions shows me transaction 44fda78ccccf28abeb93d782eb987fe159b79063536ba1b9a6887341b07401e8 that has an amount of 4500, but gettransaction says the amount is 0
1806 2010-12-08 23:59:00 <theymos> Would there be any interest if I created a patch that removed all non-network-enforced restrictions on transactions, allowing miners to collect more transaction fees?
