  10 2011-01-09 00:13:50 <nanotube> MT`AwAy: well... i guess just post your thoughts and we'll go from there. if you think the stuff is better off in a separate page, 'for people who want to know what's behind the curtain'... that's fine i'll make a separate one.
  11 2011-01-09 00:17:31 <MT`AwAy> well, the "getting started" page was supposed to be a getting started, ie all you need to know when you're really new and want to start fast

  13 2011-01-09 00:26:55 <nanotube> MT`AwAy: well, separate page it is, then. :)
  14 2011-01-09 00:27:30 <MT`AwAy> sounds better to keep a place where we can direct new users
  15 2011-01-09 00:27:43 <MT`AwAy> without throwing too many informations to them at once

  17 2011-01-09 00:31:37 <da2ce7> The bitcoin.org site should have a Tor Hidden Service address...
  18 2011-01-09 00:31:51 <kupo> it eo3w
  19 2011-01-09 00:31:56 <kupo> does*
  20 2011-01-09 00:32:04 <da2ce7> ah, what is it?
  21 2011-01-09 00:32:25 <kupo> well it has starter bootstrap coin addresses
  22 2011-01-09 00:32:32 <kupo> da2ce7: check the hidden wiki
  23 2011-01-09 00:34:00 <da2ce7> iy6ni3wkqazp4ytu.onion is just for bitcoind.
  24 2011-01-09 00:34:05 <da2ce7> not the website.
  25 2011-01-09 00:34:32 <kupo> you can make a mirror
  26 2011-01-09 00:35:38 <da2ce7> that would be silly, it would be good to be able to access the bitcoin forum throogh the hidden service.
  27 2011-01-09 00:36:06 maazu has left ("Konversation terminated!")
  28 2011-01-09 00:36:33 TD has joined
  29 2011-01-09 00:36:40 <kupo> whats wrong with just accessing it through the web?
  30 2011-01-09 00:36:44 <kupo> via tor
  31 2011-01-09 00:38:03 <da2ce7> not heaps, other than hidden services are more secure and take load of the exit nodes.
  32 2011-01-09 00:39:36 <kupo> and go down far more frequently
  33 2011-01-09 00:40:47 <marioxcc> da2ce7: that depends on the hidden service
  34 2011-01-09 00:40:53 <marioxcc> *kupo, sorry
  35 2011-01-09 00:41:13 <marioxcc> there are long-lived and short-lived, just as with any other site
  36 2011-01-09 00:42:05 <kupo> I`d say there less reliable over time that a normal website
  37 2011-01-09 00:42:18 <marioxcc> why?
  38 2011-01-09 00:42:27 <kupo> I`m not gonna be willing to defend an argument over it
  39 2011-01-09 00:42:52 <da2ce7> kupo, there i no technical reason I can think of why they should be less reliable
  40 2011-01-09 00:42:55 <da2ce7> *is
  41 2011-01-09 00:43:04 <marioxcc> da2ce7: he don't want to discuss, not worth insisting
  42 2011-01-09 00:43:09 <kupo> ty
  43 2011-01-09 00:43:22 <marioxcc> i don't have time for do so, anyways
  44 2011-01-09 00:43:32 <da2ce7> kk
  45 2011-01-09 00:43:52 <kupo> but bringing back the idea da2ce7 you could grab some freehosting and created a mirror as a hidden service
  46 2011-01-09 00:43:57 <ThomasV> did anyone develop a mtgox applet for gnome ?
  47 2011-01-09 00:43:57 <marioxcc> but da2ce7, you don't need a hidden service in order to get the trafic directly instead of by an exit relay
  48 2011-01-09 00:44:17 <marioxcc> you could use exit enclaving for instance
  49 2011-01-09 00:44:17 <kupo> marioxcc: oh ? explain
  50 2011-01-09 00:44:35 <marioxcc> hold a moment
  51 2011-01-09 00:44:38 <kupo> ok
  52 2011-01-09 00:46:04 <marioxcc> i can't find it
  53 2011-01-09 00:46:30 <marioxcc> but there is an option to say, if you run a relay (exit or not) and other service to send the traffic to your service directly by you
  54 2011-01-09 00:46:41 <marioxcc> instead of by an exit realy and then to you
  55 2011-01-09 00:50:55 <marioxcc> it is called exit enclaving
  56 2011-01-09 00:51:05 <marioxcc> and people in #tor tells me it is automatic
  57 2011-01-09 00:52:56 <da2ce7> well I think that it is inportant for the bitcoin community to develop good tor infranstructure.
  58 2011-01-09 00:53:17 <marioxcc> there are other anonimity networks
  59 2011-01-09 00:53:24 <marioxcc> I support tor, but it isn't the only option
  60 2011-01-09 00:53:30 <marioxcc> also, we don't depend on a particular page
  61 2011-01-09 00:53:46 <marioxcc> is not like the cliet looks up for other clients in the forums or so
  62 2011-01-09 00:54:16 <da2ce7> I'm working on that also... I have made the bounty for the feenet-bitcoin client
  63 2011-01-09 00:54:45 <marioxcc> ¿bounty?
  64 2011-01-09 00:55:04 <marioxcc> could you reformulate the phrase without "bounty".  i'm unable to undestand "bounty" at this time.
  65 2011-01-09 00:55:13 <da2ce7> http://www.bitcoin.org/smf/index.php?topic=2312.0
  66 2011-01-09 00:55:15 <bitbot> Bitcoin over Freenet (350BTC in total)
  67 2011-01-09 00:56:07 <da2ce7> My goal is to connect the bitcoin/freenet netowrk to the web network with tor
  68 2011-01-09 00:56:38 <da2ce7> this will allow us to have 100% firewalled freenet bitcoin.
  69 2011-01-09 00:56:48 <marioxcc> I don't like freenet (Java BS IMHO)
  70 2011-01-09 00:57:03 <marioxcc> there is however, alredy support for a SOCKS proxy
  71 2011-01-09 00:57:04 <da2ce7> well it works.
  72 2011-01-09 00:57:23 akem has quit (Ping timeout: 240 seconds)
  73 2011-01-09 00:57:27 <marioxcc> of course, you can't have incomming connections by tor (other than a hidden service or exit enclaving)
  74 2011-01-09 00:58:10 <marioxcc> BTW: why freenet and not tor?
  75 2011-01-09 00:58:35 <nanotube> why not both?
  76 2011-01-09 00:58:41 <da2ce7> Both are inportant
  77 2011-01-09 00:58:48 <nanotube> the more avenues for access, the better.
  78 2011-01-09 00:59:01 <nanotube> someone's already made an i2p mirror, iirc
  79 2011-01-09 00:59:06 <marioxcc> both is double effort and less than double GAIN
  80 2011-01-09 00:59:08 <marioxcc> *gain
  81 2011-01-09 00:59:13 <marioxcc> sorry, aciddentally locked caps
  82 2011-01-09 00:59:16 <marioxcc> hehe
  83 2011-01-09 00:59:29 <nanotube> remap your capslock to ctl :)
  84 2011-01-09 00:59:36 <marioxcc> i did
  85 2011-01-09 01:00:00 <nanotube> so how did you lock caps then...
  86 2011-01-09 01:00:07 <da2ce7> they should accomodate and build upon eachother.  Bitcoin on Freenet still needs to conenct to the real web.  Tor will supply the way to do that connection.
  87 2011-01-09 01:00:24 <marioxcc> nanotube: finger mistrake for C-N
  88 2011-01-09 01:00:36 <marioxcc> (note difference to C-n)
  89 2011-01-09 01:01:12 <marioxcc> da2ce7: why not only tor?
  90 2011-01-09 01:01:24 <marioxcc> you want to use freenet as a gateway for tor?
  91 2011-01-09 01:01:43 <da2ce7> no, the other way arround.
  92 2011-01-09 01:02:10 <marioxcc> uh?
  93 2011-01-09 01:02:10 <da2ce7> each block will have its own CHK addresss
  94 2011-01-09 01:02:19 <marioxcc> let me see
  95 2011-01-09 01:02:25 <marioxcc> you want to store the blocks in freenet?
  96 2011-01-09 01:02:33 <da2ce7> yep.
  97 2011-01-09 01:02:45 <marioxcc> interesting
  98 2011-01-09 01:02:51 <da2ce7> and tor can allow you to download the chk lists quickly
  99 2011-01-09 01:03:05 <marioxcc> i'm not familiar enough with freenet
 100 2011-01-09 01:03:20 <marioxcc> apart from storing, do it routes general TCP traffic?
 101 2011-01-09 01:03:44 <da2ce7> it is a inderpendant network. there is no connection to the real internet
 102 2011-01-09 01:03:51 <da2ce7> there are no freenet 'exit nodes'
 103 2011-01-09 01:04:03 <marioxcc> nevermind, I will read the docs
 104 2011-01-09 01:04:11 <marioxcc> tell me more about your idea
 105 2011-01-09 01:04:25 <marioxcc> why do you want to store the blocks in freenet instead of in all clients?
 106 2011-01-09 01:04:28 <marioxcc> (as currently)
 107 2011-01-09 01:04:46 <marioxcc> and how do you know which freenet address the next block (or any other given one) is stored in?
 108 2011-01-09 01:05:16 Diablo-D3 has joined
 109 2011-01-09 01:05:52 <da2ce7> that is the hard part... we make specal 'lists' that cointain all the addresses to the blocks stored on freenet.  The bitcoin client then download's the blocks.
 110 2011-01-09 01:06:42 <da2ce7> when a new block is made, every client that is conencted to the real world and the freenet network insets the new block into freenet.
 111 2011-01-09 01:07:22 <da2ce7> the hard part is announcing it to the bitcoin clients that are only connected to freenet.
 112 2011-01-09 01:08:08 <da2ce7> the other part involves sending 'transactions' arround the freenet network, untill they reach a client that is conencted to the real world also
 113 2011-01-09 01:08:33 <marioxcc> i think you're going to get a complexity problem
 114 2011-01-09 01:08:39 <marioxcc> complex software is more error prone
 115 2011-01-09 01:08:51 <marioxcc> you can almost solve it splitting into layers
 116 2011-01-09 01:08:57 <marioxcc> but let's see
 117 2011-01-09 01:09:06 <marioxcc> exactly, what problem do your model addressesssess?

 120 2011-01-09 01:10:16 <da2ce7> storage of the block chain, annoymous connection to the bitcoin network.  Bitcoin over darknet.
 121 2011-01-09 01:11:24 <da2ce7> I suppose that the best way would be to have some 'trusted' block addresss list sites.
 122 2011-01-09 01:11:34 <da2ce7> then use FMS for transactions.
 123 2011-01-09 01:11:34 <luke-jr> what is the return code from 'sendfrom'?
 124 2011-01-09 01:11:39 <luke-jr> how can I see my transaction?>
 125 2011-01-09 01:11:47 <marioxcc> da2ce7: so in a higher abstraction level, it is to improove the resistance of the BTC network to censorship and to improove anonimity
 126 2011-01-09 01:11:48 <marioxcc> is that?
 127 2011-01-09 01:13:18 <marioxcc> oh, BTW
 128 2011-01-09 01:13:32 <da2ce7> well my long-term goal is to develop the infrastructure to do commerce  with anonymity
 129 2011-01-09 01:13:46 <marioxcc> it is alredy possible to do so
 130 2011-01-09 01:14:05 <marioxcc> just using the existing SOCKS interface and a trustworthy proxy (custom or tor)
 131 2011-01-09 01:14:08 <marioxcc> (for instance)
 132 2011-01-09 01:14:37 <marioxcc> i think for the project to be sucessfull you should define clearly a simple set of goals and then have any action justified
 133 2011-01-09 01:14:52 <marioxcc> some ideas may be great, but they may not fit there
 134 2011-01-09 01:15:11 <marioxcc> for instance, why do you want to store blocks in freenet instead of in each client HD?
 135 2011-01-09 01:15:20 <da2ce7> you need more than just bitcoin... you need a whole network of trusted peers, data sharing, communication, etc.
 136 2011-01-09 01:15:40 <marioxcc> trusted? well, no really
 137 2011-01-09 01:15:46 <da2ce7> a dark net is the natural model
 138 2011-01-09 01:16:14 <marioxcc> but you're lefting some questions unanswered
 139 2011-01-09 01:16:34 <da2ce7> no, your client will have the blocks on the HDD just as before.
 140 2011-01-09 01:16:34 <marioxcc> you will have to answer them, for yourself at least
 141 2011-01-09 01:16:53 <marioxcc> then why to duplicate data in freenet?
 142 2011-01-09 01:17:11 <da2ce7> why not?  It is a very good place to store data.
 143 2011-01-09 01:17:37 <luke-jr> http://blockexplorer.com/tx/f5c7e8ae481662ffd15fa28a7193b00e6a200c38627c9c5a02610f4d91ea316c#i595590
 144 2011-01-09 01:17:42 <da2ce7> it is a distiubuted file system
 145 2011-01-09 01:17:46 <luke-jr> where did my input go? -.-
 146 2011-01-09 01:17:52 <marioxcc> why not? -> because if there is no real justification for do so you just increase resource usage both by freenet contributors and those which will have to use it
 147 2011-01-09 01:18:31 <marioxcc> luke-jr: strange, are you using the default bitcoin client?
 148 2011-01-09 01:18:40 <luke-jr> no, I modified it to not round
 149 2011-01-09 01:18:53 <marioxcc> that may be the problem
 150 2011-01-09 01:19:17 <marioxcc> well, those 0.02 are takenth as transaction fee
 151 2011-01-09 01:19:17 <luke-jr> …
 152 2011-01-09 01:19:26 <luke-jr> there should be no fee
 153 2011-01-09 01:19:32 <luke-jr> I didn't authorize a fee
 154 2011-01-09 01:19:35 <marioxcc> luke-jr: you did
 155 2011-01-09 01:19:40 <nanotube> marioxcc: the idea is that even if the plain-net bitcoin network gets ddos'ed or banned by isps, it would still be able to run entirely on freenet.
 156 2011-01-09 01:19:43 <marioxcc> by not including a output=input
 157 2011-01-09 01:19:48 <marioxcc> output-input= free
 158 2011-01-09 01:19:57 <marioxcc> there is no explicit "fee" field AFAIK
 159 2011-01-09 01:20:00 <luke-jr> marioxcc: I didn't do that. -.-
 160 2011-01-09 01:20:25 <nanotube> marioxcc: that is correct. no fee field.
 161 2011-01-09 01:20:44 <marioxcc> luke-jr: check your client
 162 2011-01-09 01:20:54 <luke-jr> perhaps more importantly, 'sendfrom' took the moneys from the wrong account
 163 2011-01-09 01:21:07 <marioxcc> i think it is worth to remind you the computer don't does what we want it to do, it does what we tell it to do, which isn't always equal to the first :)
 164 2011-01-09 01:21:22 <marioxcc> there may be a bug on your modified version of the client, please check it
 165 2011-01-09 01:21:36 <marioxcc> nanotube: ok, thanks you for confiramtion :)
 166 2011-01-09 01:22:16 <marioxcc> regarding the freenet idea, it is useless by itself, i think, you need running nodes to have a bitcoin network
 167 2011-01-09 01:22:35 devon_hillard has quit (Read error: Connection reset by peer)
 168 2011-01-09 01:22:36 <marioxcc> if you have running nodes you can store data in them, then freenet becomes useless in this case, from my viewpoint
 169 2011-01-09 01:23:25 ThomasV has quit (Ping timeout: 240 seconds)
 170 2011-01-09 01:23:43 <da2ce7> you will always need to bootstrap new nodes, having all the data on freenet allows nodes to bootstrap without leaving the darknet.
 171 2011-01-09 01:23:53 <nanotube> right
 172 2011-01-09 01:24:00 <nanotube> i think it would be nice
 173 2011-01-09 01:24:03 TD has quit (Quit: TD)
 174 2011-01-09 01:24:05 <marioxcc> da2ce7: but you need to conect to live nodes, one way or another
 175 2011-01-09 01:24:11 <nanotube> though i'm not even a freenetter. :)
 176 2011-01-09 01:24:33 <marioxcc> freenet won't do that because as you said, it don't routes traffic
 177 2011-01-09 01:24:56 <nanotube> marioxcc: it does, afaik... but only within freenet
 178 2011-01-09 01:25:10 <marioxcc> nanotube: of course, I mean general purpose TCP trafic
 179 2011-01-09 01:25:13 <marioxcc> like tor for instance
 180 2011-01-09 01:25:32 <da2ce7> no, however there is nothing stopping new blocks being insterted very qickly into freenet.
 181 2011-01-09 01:26:08 <marioxcc> uh?
 182 2011-01-09 01:26:45 <marioxcc> all what you do by using freenet is to transfer some load (block transmission) from BitCoin nodes to freenet nodes.
 183 2011-01-09 01:27:29 <marioxcc> which I find to be a artifficial and avoidable load and dependency (read software dependency) on freenet
 184 2011-01-09 01:27:51 <da2ce7> well in essence yes, but this isn't bad thing.  all we are doing is placing data into the darknet.
 185 2011-01-09 01:28:07 <da2ce7> that is the entire purpose of a darknet.
 186 2011-01-09 01:28:13 <marioxcc> you didn't got the point...
 187 2011-01-09 01:28:22 <marioxcc> :/
 188 2011-01-09 01:30:10 <dsg> marioxcc: Not every bitcoin client will be inserting into freenet. Probably very few people will run such clients. How does that negatively affect you if you decide not to do so?
 189 2011-01-09 01:30:30 <dsg> I don't think anyone has proposed adding freenet-depending code into mainline bitcoin.
 190 2011-01-09 01:31:02 <marioxcc> dsg: I don't mean that
 191 2011-01-09 01:31:16 <marioxcc> just there is no need and no benefit to use darknet to store blocks
 192 2011-01-09 01:31:21 <dsg> da2ce7, for what it's worth, I really like your idea. bitcoin blocks are a good fit for freenet, and it would give bitcoin a boost with freenetters :)
 193 2011-01-09 01:31:42 <marioxcc> that's what you have live nodes, and in the first place, you alredy connect to them, use them"
 194 2011-01-09 01:31:47 <da2ce7> when client A (who is connected to both freenet and tor), gets a new block from tor, it inserts that block into freenet.
 195 2011-01-09 01:32:03 <dsg> marioxcc: No need, sure. There is a benefit in adding a new, difficult-to-censor way to connect to the network.
 196 2011-01-09 01:32:19 <marioxcc> dsg: no, because you anyway have to connect to live nodes
 197 2011-01-09 01:32:35 <marioxcc> you don't delete the need to connect-to-live-nodes
 198 2011-01-09 01:32:43 <marioxcc> you just add the need to connect-to-freenet-nodes
 199 2011-01-09 01:32:45 <dsg> marioxcc: No, someone does. But not all freenet clients.
 200 2011-01-09 01:33:05 <marioxcc> yes, I undestand this is a separate system
 201 2011-01-09 01:33:27 <dsg> bitcoin is easily blocked
 202 2011-01-09 01:33:38 <dsg> freenet not so.
 203 2011-01-09 01:33:41 <marioxcc> ...
 204 2011-01-09 01:33:56 <marioxcc> there isn't worst deaf than the one don't wants to hear
 205 2011-01-09 01:34:13 <dsg> I do not think you understand :)
 206 2011-01-09 01:35:16 <dsg> But I see others have tried to explain to you already, so I won't bother.
 207 2011-01-09 01:35:27 <marioxcc> nevermind, I alredy lost enought time trying to expose the uselessness of storing block in freenet network
 208 2011-01-09 01:36:32 <marioxcc> just think by yourself: if you trade the need for bitcoin-node connectivity for bitcoin-node connectivity AND freenet-node connectivity, what's the gain
 209 2011-01-09 01:36:33 <marioxcc> (don't tellme)
 210 2011-01-09 01:44:40 <da2ce7> well cya guys, :)
 211 2011-01-09 01:56:58 <Diablo-D3> man
 212 2011-01-09 01:57:01 <Diablo-D3> fucking palin
 213 2011-01-09 01:57:15 <Diablo-D3> I hope she goes to prison for the rest of her ugly little life
 214 2011-01-09 01:57:28 <Diablo-D3> fucking whore
 215 2011-01-09 01:57:41 <AAA_awright> ...
 216 2011-01-09 01:58:12 <Diablo-D3> dude, she tried to have a congresswoman assassinated
 217 2011-01-09 01:58:14 <AAA_awright> What was it this time? Did she go on a rampage and shoot a dozen people?
 218 2011-01-09 01:58:30 <AAA_awright> Diablo-D3: When was this? I think I missed that story
 219 2011-01-09 01:58:40 <Diablo-D3> AAA_awright: its funny you say a dozen
 220 2011-01-09 01:58:45 <Diablo-D3> thats how many people were shot
 221 2011-01-09 01:59:02 <Diablo-D3> http://www.boingboing.net/2011/01/08/congresswoman-gabrie.html
 222 2011-01-09 01:59:15 <AAA_awright> Oh yeah that's right, it wasn't her it was someone COMPLETELY UNRELATED TO HER
 223 2011-01-09 01:59:38 <Diablo-D3> AAA_awright: it was someone working for sarah palin and/or the tea party
 224 2011-01-09 02:00:05 <Diablo-D3> sarah palin doesnt actually know how to fire a gun
 225 2011-01-09 02:00:20 <Diablo-D3> so obviously she couldnt do it herself
 226 2011-01-09 02:00:36 <AAA_awright> Funny because the reported videos he published sound just like that IRS bomber
 227 2011-01-09 02:01:03 <Diablo-D3> AAA_awright: read boing boing's writeup
 228 2011-01-09 02:01:27 <AAA_awright> Diablo-D3: What about it?
 229 2011-01-09 02:02:02 <Diablo-D3> dont you think its a little coincidental?
 230 2011-01-09 02:02:21 <AAA_awright> I saw her website during the campaign season
 231 2011-01-09 02:02:23 <AAA_awright> No, not at all
 232 2011-01-09 02:02:44 <AAA_awright> "In conclusion, reading the second United States constitution, I can't trust the current government because of the ratifications: the government is implying mind control and brainwash on the people by controlling grammar. No! I won't pay debt with a currency that's not backed by gold and silver! No! I won't trust in god!"
 233 2011-01-09 02:02:44 <AAA_awright> Yeah, that totally sounds like someone who works for "sarah palin and/or the tea party"
 234 2011-01-09 02:02:46 <Diablo-D3> so its okay to name 20 people and put gun sights over their congressional districts?
 235 2011-01-09 02:03:06 <Diablo-D3> AAA_awright: actually, that sounds EXACTLY like tea partiers
 236 2011-01-09 02:03:31 <AAA_awright> Diablo-D3: The government is brainwashing us with grammar, gold, and god?
 237 2011-01-09 02:04:12 <Diablo-D3> yes, look how nonsensical that sounds
 238 2011-01-09 02:04:24 <Diablo-D3> thats clearly a tea partier at work
 239 2011-01-09 02:04:32 <kiba> it's true that public schooling is not about educating the people
 240 2011-01-09 02:04:35 <AAA_awright> Diablo-D3: I wasn't aware of the controversy when it was published six months ago... It sounds like people looking to blame people they disagree with
 241 2011-01-09 02:04:38 <kiba> it's about control
 242 2011-01-09 02:04:49 <AAA_awright> What is that called again? Some fallacy
 243 2011-01-09 02:05:28 <alowm> ad hominem? attacking the person and not the argument
 244 2011-01-09 02:05:44 <Diablo-D3> kiba: yes, and gabrielle giffords was controlled.
 245 2011-01-09 02:06:17 <AAA_awright> She was on Fox News just yesterday saying how we need to cut Congress's salaries, in addition to the budget cuts
 246 2011-01-09 02:06:29 <AAA_awright> If you're looking for an extremest to go shoot up, she wasn't it
 247 2011-01-09 02:06:51 <kiba> Diablo-D3: obviously, that was not what I meant
 248 2011-01-09 02:07:00 <kiba> it's not a conspricy that public schooling is not about education
 249 2011-01-09 02:07:04 <AAA_awright> alowm: Yeah
 250 2011-01-09 02:07:26 <alowm> kiba: look up "the six lesson schoolteacher" unless you are already familiar with it :)
 251 2011-01-09 02:07:29 <kiba> what kind of idiots assume the worst?
 252 2011-01-09 02:07:48 <Diablo-D3> Im sorry, but when I see sarah palin going after 20 democrats who backed up the american people when we needed it the most
 253 2011-01-09 02:07:51 <kiba> alowm: I would say public schooling is a mythology
 254 2011-01-09 02:07:56 <Diablo-D3> and one of them ends up dead shortly after the election
 255 2011-01-09 02:08:07 <Diablo-D3> and shes from AZ, which is known for their tea party terrorism
 256 2011-01-09 02:08:21 <alowm> she died? last i saw she was in the hospital and expected to recover
 257 2011-01-09 02:08:26 <kiba> Diablo-D3: it far outside the norm
 258 2011-01-09 02:08:40 <Diablo-D3> alowm: shes not dead, but that just means it was a botched job
 259 2011-01-09 02:08:41 <kiba> for a politican to use assassination tool in American politic
 260 2011-01-09 02:08:50 <Diablo-D3> alowm: usually a shot to the head from point blank == death
 261 2011-01-09 02:08:51 <AAA_awright> Diablo-D3: I wouldn't quite call her a tea-partier, not by any means... blue-dog?
 262 2011-01-09 02:08:59 <alowm> yeah, generally a headshot isn't intended to maim
 263 2011-01-09 02:09:22 <Diablo-D3> they intended to send a clear message
 264 2011-01-09 02:09:25 <kiba> we don't know why the shooter
 265 2011-01-09 02:09:27 <Diablo-D3> help the american people, and you will die
 266 2011-01-09 02:09:37 <kiba> did what they did
 267 2011-01-09 02:09:39 <kiba> yet
 268 2011-01-09 02:09:45 <kiba> Diablo-D3: there you go, jumping to conclusion
 269 2011-01-09 02:10:01 <kiba> we still don't know what the fuck is going on
 270 2011-01-09 02:10:03 <AAA_awright> Diablo-D3: Meet your congressman to express conserns, and you die?
 271 2011-01-09 02:10:14 <Diablo-D3> AAA_awright: they were just in the way
 272 2011-01-09 02:10:25 <Diablo-D3> and some of those people were her staff too, btw
 273 2011-01-09 02:10:37 <Diablo-D3> and to a tea partier "well, thats the same thing, auyp"
 274 2011-01-09 02:10:43 <AAA_awright> Diablo-D3: If you just want to take out a person that's the wrong way to do it... He was suicidal, if anything
 275 2011-01-09 02:10:44 noagendamarket has joined
 276 2011-01-09 02:11:02 <Diablo-D3> AAA_awright: shooting someone in the head is usually the most effective way of killing someone
 277 2011-01-09 02:11:17 noagendamarket has quit (Changing host)
 278 2011-01-09 02:11:17 noagendamarket has joined
 279 2011-01-09 02:11:19 <kiba> he probably spray and shoot
 280 2011-01-09 02:11:22 <kiba> he hit 15 other people
 281 2011-01-09 02:11:24 <AAA_awright> Diablo-D3: You don't then proceed to fire 18 rounds in 6 seconds
 282 2011-01-09 02:11:45 <Diablo-D3> of course, gotta make it look like a crazy man
 283 2011-01-09 02:11:59 <Diablo-D3> I wonder if he was paid enough to make it worth it
 284 2011-01-09 02:12:05 <kiba> we still don't know what this "crazy man" did
 285 2011-01-09 02:12:09 <kiba> err
 286 2011-01-09 02:12:10 <kiba> motive
 287 2011-01-09 02:12:20 <alowm> you don't need to pay someone if they're doing it for idealogical reasons
 288 2011-01-09 02:12:27 <kiba> very little information is avaiable beside the usual political bashing
 289 2011-01-09 02:12:28 <Diablo-D3> kiba: I dont particularly trust the meida on this
 290 2011-01-09 02:12:37 <alowm> they guy could just as well have shot up an abortion clinic
 291 2011-01-09 02:12:41 <Diablo-D3> no one is reporting on the palin connection
 292 2011-01-09 02:12:43 <noagendamarket> what are they saying about ti?
 293 2011-01-09 02:12:43 <alowm> that*
 294 2011-01-09 02:12:53 <AAA_awright> Diablo-D3: WHAT PALIN CONNECTION
 295 2011-01-09 02:13:03 <luke-jr> argh, more $ wasted
 296 2011-01-09 02:13:15 <luke-jr> which the stupid client would let me test w/o actually doing it
 297 2011-01-09 02:13:38 <Diablo-D3> AAA_awright: PALIN WANTED GIFFORDS "REMOVED" FROM CONGRESS
 298 2011-01-09 02:13:43 <kiba> I see Padlin connection
 299 2011-01-09 02:13:44 <AAA_awright> Forget Palin, what about Obama, Bush, and Pelosi!?! They clearly caused this too, because without them, we wouldn't have people worried about the government!
 300 2011-01-09 02:13:47 <kiba> what utter bulshit
 301 2011-01-09 02:13:52 <kiba> s/bulshit/bullshit
 302 2011-01-09 02:14:02 <AAA_awright> There would be no government to complain about!
 303 2011-01-09 02:14:08 <Diablo-D3> AAA_awright: actually, lets drop the first and the last there
 304 2011-01-09 02:14:09 <AAA_awright> But NO, No one is reporting on that
 305 2011-01-09 02:14:14 <Diablo-D3> AAA_awright: YES WHAT ABOUT NUSH
 306 2011-01-09 02:14:17 <Diablo-D3> BUSH
 307 2011-01-09 02:14:22 <Diablo-D3> the guy is a fucking criminal
 308 2011-01-09 02:14:26 <Diablo-D3> why wasnt it him getting shot
 309 2011-01-09 02:14:35 <Diablo-D3> hes the one that tried to pull is NWO shit
 310 2011-01-09 02:14:37 <Diablo-D3> *his
 311 2011-01-09 02:14:50 <Diablo-D3> the NWO shit will NEVER work
 312 2011-01-09 02:14:59 <Diablo-D3> Bush and his ilk will never be the kings of the world
 313 2011-01-09 02:15:01 <Diablo-D3> why the fuck do they bother
 314 2011-01-09 02:15:03 <AAA_awright> ...And Obama isn't?
 315 2011-01-09 02:15:06 <AAA_awright> Or what
 316 2011-01-09 02:15:11 <noagendamarket> its probably going to brign in gun laws
 317 2011-01-09 02:15:13 <Diablo-D3> Obama is being lead around by his dick by Congress
 318 2011-01-09 02:15:24 <Diablo-D3> noagendamarket: yes, which the people must resist
 319 2011-01-09 02:15:35 <noagendamarket> not if it keeps happening
 320 2011-01-09 02:15:37 <AAA_awright> I mean talk about New World Order, you have an actual White House FILLED with revolutionaries
 321 2011-01-09 02:15:48 <AAA_awright> Who ACTUALLY LITERALLY BOMBED GOVERNMENT OFFICIALS
 322 2011-01-09 02:15:53 <kermit> ##politics
 323 2011-01-09 02:15:56 <Diablo-D3> AAA_awright: bullshit
 324 2011-01-09 02:15:58 <noagendamarket> all al quaeda would have to do is a couple of mass shootinfgs
 325 2011-01-09 02:16:02 <kiba> can people discuss this more rational
 326 2011-01-09 02:16:06 <kiba> ly>
 327 2011-01-09 02:16:11 <noagendamarket> then watch what happens
 328 2011-01-09 02:16:23 <kiba> one nutjob can cause a massacre
 329 2011-01-09 02:16:25 <Diablo-D3> noagendamarket: it just means every single person able to carry a gun should be armed at all times
 330 2011-01-09 02:16:26 <AAA_awright> kermit: ##politico the troll-free politics channel
 331 2011-01-09 02:16:33 <kiba> I don't see how Al Queada can't do the same
 332 2011-01-09 02:16:36 <kiba> but obviously
 333 2011-01-09 02:16:37 <noagendamarket> they only had to fly two planes half well
 334 2011-01-09 02:16:37 marioxcc has left ("ERC Version 5.3 (IRC client for Emacs)")
 335 2011-01-09 02:16:51 <noagendamarket> to cause an over reaction
 336 2011-01-09 02:17:07 <kiba> Al Queada like "daring" plans
 337 2011-01-09 02:17:22 <kermit> AAA_awright: if thats true, then i stand by my suggestion for the discusssion at hand :
 338 2011-01-09 02:17:26 <AAA_awright> Also, unless someone wants to start talking about BitCoin I would say it's open season, short of crapflooding
 339 2011-01-09 02:17:31 <kiba> mass shooting is a great way to take a hundred of people out
 340 2011-01-09 02:17:54 <noagendamarket> yes and then they brin g in bodyscanners at the local mall
 341 2011-01-09 02:18:02 Zarutian has quit (Quit: Zarutian)
 342 2011-01-09 02:18:03 <kiba> noagendamarket: which does nothing
 343 2011-01-09 02:18:04 <noagendamarket> at football fields
 344 2011-01-09 02:18:06 <kiba> just shoot the guard
 345 2011-01-09 02:18:09 <kiba> shoot the guard...
 346 2011-01-09 02:18:16 <noagendamarket> thats not the point
 347 2011-01-09 02:18:21 <noagendamarket> its theater
 348 2011-01-09 02:18:31 <kiba> security theater
 349 2011-01-09 02:18:47 <alowm> an article mentioned that the dhs wants to add body scanners to buses, subways, etc.
 350 2011-01-09 02:18:53 <noagendamarket> How many people the guy shot had guns?
 351 2011-01-09 02:19:02 <kiba> we're scared of a terrorist attack more than a car accident, which is the leading cause of death for people under 45
 352 2011-01-09 02:19:03 <noagendamarket> I bet none did
 353 2011-01-09 02:19:31 <kiba> alowm: you can simply blow up the bus
 354 2011-01-09 02:19:43 <noagendamarket> thats how they disarmed australians
 355 2011-01-09 02:19:46 <kiba> blowing up bombs seem to be rather hard though
 356 2011-01-09 02:19:50 <noagendamarket> one guy shot 31 people
 357 2011-01-09 02:19:56 <noagendamarket> now no one can have them
 358 2011-01-09 02:19:57 <kiba> of which have no gun?
 359 2011-01-09 02:20:15 <noagendamarket> yes
 360 2011-01-09 02:20:18 <alowm> you can add as many layers of "security" and checkpoints as you want, there will always be a large grouping of people to attack outside the "secure" area
 361 2011-01-09 02:20:45 <kiba> real security had to be done like an intelligence gathering operation
 362 2011-01-09 02:20:46 <noagendamarket> just do a suicide bomb at the checkpoint
 363 2011-01-09 02:20:57 <noagendamarket> after all thats where all the people are waiyting
 364 2011-01-09 02:21:07 <noagendamarket> its a choke point
 365 2011-01-09 02:21:31 <noagendamarket> why get on the p[lanme at all?
 366 2011-01-09 02:21:39 <kiba> it's DARING
 367 2011-01-09 02:21:55 <kiba> terrorist theater
 368 2011-01-09 02:22:24 <kiba> haha, we can blow up your most guarded transportation system
 369 2011-01-09 02:22:31 <kiba> and crash them into building
 370 2011-01-09 02:22:34 <noagendamarket> how come all the supposed terrorist keep showing up alive?
 371 2011-01-09 02:22:55 <kiba> hmm?
 372 2011-01-09 02:24:12 <kiba> well
 373 2011-01-09 02:24:17 <kiba> all I am going to say
 374 2011-01-09 02:24:30 <kiba> there's going to be another intelligence failure, and US will suffer an attack
 375 2011-01-09 02:24:49 <noagendamarket> probably a cyber attack
 376 2011-01-09 02:24:51 <kiba> and all the TSA security measure will be moot if they used the planes again
 377 2011-01-09 02:25:31 <kiba> if you have a cop on there who can use force...maybe it will be stopped
 378 2011-01-09 02:25:32 <kiba> who know
 379 2011-01-09 02:25:37 <kiba> err
 380 2011-01-09 02:25:44 <kiba> I don't think passenger is going to be passive
 381 2011-01-09 02:25:45 <kiba> anymore
 382 2011-01-09 02:25:49 <kiba> they're going to be aggressive
 383 2011-01-09 02:26:03 <alowm> the only changes that have increased security since sept. 11 are strengthening the cockpit doors and the fact that passengers will attempt to stop hijackers now
 384 2011-01-09 02:26:19 <alowm> because they know they're not going to land at an airfield and be ransomed, they're going to die
 385 2011-01-09 02:26:51 <alowm> the days of leila khaled are over
 386 2011-01-09 02:26:52 <kiba> yeah
 387 2011-01-09 02:27:02 <kiba> that's the biggest security measure you have right there
 388 2011-01-09 02:27:20 <kiba> it ain't going to be a cakewalk anymore
 389 2011-01-09 02:27:20 <alowm> my goal is to abscond from this country before it's made illegal
 390 2011-01-09 02:27:35 <kiba> forget all the TSA security measure
 391 2011-01-09 02:27:59 <luke-jr> abscond?
 392 2011-01-09 02:28:28 <alowm> ehh... fancy word for departing quickly and secretly
 393 2011-01-09 02:28:33 <luke-jr> where to?
 394 2011-01-09 02:28:34 <alowm> with minimal fuss :)
 395 2011-01-09 02:28:38 <luke-jr> everywhere else is already worse
 396 2011-01-09 02:28:47 <kiba> off to some island
 397 2011-01-09 02:28:58 <luke-jr> lol sure
 398 2011-01-09 02:29:05 <luke-jr> like there's unclaimed islands still
 399 2011-01-09 02:29:07 <alowm> probably a top five country on the human development index
 400 2011-01-09 02:29:20 <luke-jr> alowm: already worse
 401 2011-01-09 02:29:30 <luke-jr> maybe someday we'll make it into space
 402 2011-01-09 02:29:36 <luke-jr> lots of room to hide out there for a while
 403 2011-01-09 02:29:52 <alowm> how is a country like denmark/sweden/norway worse than the US? O_o
 404 2011-01-09 02:30:00 <kiba> and then we will have our first interstellar war!
 405 2011-01-09 02:30:00 <alowm> unless you're a conservative, etc.
 406 2011-01-09 02:30:01 <luke-jr> MUCH worse
 407 2011-01-09 02:30:16 <luke-jr> alowm: um, yes. liberalism is the problem
 408 2011-01-09 02:30:29 * kiba get all giddy invading the US capital as a drop trooper
 409 2011-01-09 02:30:32 <alowm> can you give an example?
 410 2011-01-09 02:30:38 <alowm> i've been doing research and not seen too many cons
 411 2011-01-09 02:30:48 <luke-jr> alowm: … everything the US is heading toward?
 412 2011-01-09 02:30:53 <kiba> liberalism, conservatism?
 413 2011-01-09 02:30:59 <kiba> naw,
 414 2011-01-09 02:31:01 <luke-jr> everything all those other countries have already fallen into?
 415 2011-01-09 02:31:04 <kiba> they're both statist idealogy
 416 2011-01-09 02:31:09 <noagendamarket> new zealand
 417 2011-01-09 02:31:11 <noagendamarket> lol
 418 2011-01-09 02:31:17 <alowm> i don't see scandinavian really heading towards serfdom
 419 2011-01-09 02:31:18 <luke-jr> IIRC NZ is one of the worst
 420 2011-01-09 02:31:23 <alowm> -n
 421 2011-01-09 02:31:34 <luke-jr> serfdom would be an improvement
 422 2011-01-09 02:31:47 <alowm> serfs paid less taxes than the US middle class currently do

 446 2011-01-09 02:37:16 <luke-jr> marioxcc: eating away at my limited funds ☹
 447 2011-01-09 02:37:24 <luke-jr> putting huge tx fees on my tests
 448 2011-01-09 02:37:39 <marioxcc> luke-jr: oh
 449 2011-01-09 02:37:48 <marioxcc> luke-jr: tellme your direction I will send you some
 450 2011-01-09 02:38:00 <luke-jr> direction? O.o
 451 2011-01-09 02:38:04 <marioxcc> sorry
 452 2011-01-09 02:38:05 <marioxcc> address
 453 2011-01-09 02:38:19 <marioxcc> they're the same on spanish, my native language and sometimes I get confussed
 454 2011-01-09 02:38:25 <luke-jr> hehe, dunno while I have bitcoind in debugger XD
 455 2011-01-09 02:38:39 <marioxcc> then how did you enter bitcoins?
 456 2011-01-09 02:38:47 <luke-jr> ?
 457 2011-01-09 02:38:52 <marioxcc> what're you spending?
 458 2011-01-09 02:38:57 <luke-jr> I'm stepping through bitcoind right now
 459 2011-01-09 02:39:00 <marioxcc> bitcoins from your address
 460 2011-01-09 02:39:14 <luke-jr> about 0.02 BTC wasted so far
 461 2011-01-09 02:39:20 <marioxcc> not so much really
 462 2011-01-09 02:39:26 <luke-jr> it's a lot for me :P
 463 2011-01-09 02:39:38 <luke-jr> that's like a day of mining
 464 2011-01-09 02:39:44 <marioxcc> lol
 465 2011-01-09 02:39:47 <theymos> What are you trying to do?
 466 2011-01-09 02:40:02 <marioxcc> luke-jr: what I mean is I can send you 1 BTC for you to expertiment for, if you need that
 467 2011-01-09 02:40:22 <luke-jr> marioxcc: sure, gimme a few mins to finish this round of debugging
 468 2011-01-09 02:40:27 <marioxcc> yeah
 469 2011-01-09 02:40:35 <luke-jr> theymos: send non-rounded tx
 470 2011-01-09 02:40:43 <luke-jr> theymos: so like 0.01234567 BTC
 471 2011-01-09 02:40:52 <marioxcc> yeah
 472 2011-01-09 02:41:13 <theymos> luke-jr: Oh. You need to disable the sub-cent automatic fee thing. Search for "CENT" in SelectCoins.
 473 2011-01-09 02:41:26 <luke-jr> theymos: I'm not sending sub-cent values though ☺
 474 2011-01-09 02:41:44 <theymos> The change is probably sub-cent, though.
 475 2011-01-09 02:41:57 <luke-jr> oh, I see :/

 481 2011-01-09 02:42:23 <theymos> You can only redeem an entire previous output.
 482 2011-01-09 02:42:24 <xelister> in networking terms, what do we need to send to some bitcoin address? distribute "inv" command, and then distribute (on request) "tx" command?  http://www.bitcoin.org/wiki/doku.php?id=network
 483 2011-01-09 02:42:49 * xelister actuall -dev question, yey
 484 2011-01-09 02:43:17 <theymos> xelister: Right. (After you create the transaction correctly.)
 485 2011-01-09 02:43:22 <marioxcc> xelister: the first one in the day, congrats
 486 2011-01-09 02:44:34 <xelister> to make the proper "inv" + "tx" commands, what do we need exactly?
 487 2011-01-09 02:44:42 <marioxcc> what will happen if you send some coins above the account balance?
 488 2011-01-09 02:44:45 <xelister> bitcoin address of recipient is needed
 489 2011-01-09 02:44:49 <xelister> bitcoin address of recipient is /given/
 490 2011-01-09 02:44:59 <xelister> what else?  do we need to find out, like, his pubkey or something?
 491 2011-01-09 02:45:28 <xelister> and do we need to know previous blocks (either headers or entire blocks) to make payment (inv+tx) ?
 492 2011-01-09 02:46:45 <theymos> xelister: No blocks. You only need the transactions you're redeeming and the hash160 of the address you're sending to (contained in the BC address). Then you need to sign all of this with the public key specified in the transactions you're redeeming.
 493 2011-01-09 02:48:17 <xelister> so to send, basically no information needs to be downloaded from network, actually sending can be done without ever downloading from network (assuming I have proper wallet with valid BTCs in it)?
 494 2011-01-09 02:48:56 <luke-jr> hmm
 495 2011-01-09 02:48:59 <theymos> xelister: Yes, but you can't receive without having at least the block headers.
 496 2011-01-09 02:49:02 <luke-jr> so JSON-RPC API sucks
 497 2011-01-09 02:49:46 <luke-jr> it's too high-level and the implementation too dumb
 498 2011-01-09 02:49:51 <marioxcc> lol
 499 2011-01-09 02:49:58 <luke-jr> it's losing BTC for me just because it isn't smart on splitting it without a fee
 500 2011-01-09 02:50:07 <alowm> which language are you using?
 501 2011-01-09 02:50:08 <marioxcc> yeah
 502 2011-01-09 02:50:11 <marioxcc> so we agree in the bitcoin client sucks?
 503 2011-01-09 02:50:20 <marioxcc> alowm: the language bitcoin is written in
 504 2011-01-09 02:50:21 <luke-jr> not just the client, but the core impl
 505 2011-01-09 02:50:28 <marioxcc> what other?
 506 2011-01-09 02:50:38 <marioxcc> luke-jr: well, by client I mean the thing in src/
 507 2011-01-09 02:50:59 <luke-jr> marioxcc: 1HQuB7hhm8fxCEW3Wy5MdFfXGxqWSZAa6a
 508 2011-01-09 02:51:01 <alowm> marioxcc: oh, when luke-jr mentioned an API i assumed he wasn't working with the actual client but rather another language
 509 2011-01-09 02:51:14 <alowm> sorry
 510 2011-01-09 02:51:33 <luke-jr> alowm: the core 'client' is JSON-RPC
 511 2011-01-09 02:51:45 <alowm> gotcha
 512 2011-01-09 02:52:06 <luke-jr> so it sounds like I need to do this the hard way
 513 2011-01-09 02:52:26 <luke-jr> first, combine multiple old-outputs into a single large output to avoid lame fees
 514 2011-01-09 02:52:29 <marioxcc> luke-jr: just sent 1.50 BTC
 515 2011-01-09 02:52:31 <luke-jr> then split that large input
 516 2011-01-09 02:52:35 <luke-jr> marioxcc: thx
 517 2011-01-09 02:52:42 <theymos> luke-jr: In the case of http://blockexplorer.com/t/AKDH4hX3A1 , your send amount left sub-cent change. Bitcoin had no choice but to throw that away. If it hadn't have done that, your transaction would have been stuck in limbo forever.
 518 2011-01-09 02:52:47 <marioxcc> you're welcome
 519 2011-01-09 02:53:15 <luke-jr> theymos: no, it could have combined the input with more balances first
 520 2011-01-09 02:53:30 <luke-jr> theymos: and then split that larger input up into >cent change
 521 2011-01-09 02:54:39 <luke-jr> theymos: right?
 522 2011-01-09 02:55:23 <theymos> Right. Sub-cent transactions are forbidden, however, and you'll eventually end up with sub-cent amounts when you break 0.01234567 from a whole amount.
 523 2011-01-09 02:55:25 CyanDynamo has joined
 524 2011-01-09 02:55:47 <luke-jr> theymos: not necessarily
 525 2011-01-09 02:55:47 <marioxcc> theymos: why?
 526 2011-01-09 02:55:53 <marioxcc> they accumulate
 527 2011-01-09 02:56:18 <theymos> They accumulate, but what's the chance of getting the exact amount to complete it?
 528 2011-01-09 02:56:34 <marioxcc> theymos: it don't needs to be exact
 529 2011-01-09 02:56:39 <marioxcc> is same as slush pool
 530 2011-01-09 02:56:46 <marioxcc> the threshold is 0.01
 531 2011-01-09 02:57:08 <marioxcc> while it is less than that, it just accumulates
 532 2011-01-09 02:57:08 <luke-jr> so long as I actually only spend a minimum of 1 ᵗTBC, it should be fine in theory
 533 2011-01-09 02:57:38 <luke-jr> theymos: likely, if the sub-cent amounts are part of TBC
 534 2011-01-09 02:57:39 <marioxcc> also, why are < 0.01 transactions forbidden?
 535 2011-01-09 02:57:44 <marioxcc> is that hardcoded in the network?
 536 2011-01-09 02:57:48 <marioxcc> i think not
 537 2011-01-09 02:58:05 <luke-jr> marioxcc: most block generators merely won't accept the transaction unless you pay a tx fee of 0.01 BTC
 538 2011-01-09 02:58:15 <theymos> More intelligent coin selection would be great (manual selection, too), but this is not an easy change by any means.
 539 2011-01-09 02:58:19 <luke-jr> marioxcc: which means if some people start to accept them, it's a matter of time
 540 2011-01-09 02:58:47 <theymos> Generators will probably never accept all eight decimals of precision.
 541 2011-01-09 02:58:55 <luke-jr> theymos: the original core sucks. hopefully it can be replaced with a smarter one ☺
 542 2011-01-09 02:59:04 <luke-jr> the core API should be more low-level than this
 543 2011-01-09 02:59:07 <marioxcc> luke-jr: I see
 544 2011-01-09 02:59:16 <Cusipzzz> luke-jr: feel free to write your own
 545 2011-01-09 02:59:21 <marioxcc> <luke-jr> the core API should be more low-level than this <- how low-level?
 546 2011-01-09 02:59:23 <luke-jr> Cusipzzz: not trivial
 547 2011-01-09 02:59:30 <marioxcc> you mean non-JSON?
 548 2011-01-09 02:59:33 <luke-jr> marioxcc: it should allow me to write my own transactions :P
 549 2011-01-09 02:59:37 <marioxcc> oh yeah
 550 2011-01-09 02:59:48 <marioxcc> we will have to rewrite this
 551 2011-01-09 02:59:50 <luke-jr> rather than me give it a # and it tries to guess everything and spend fees w/o my permission
 552 2011-01-09 03:00:03 <marioxcc> yeah
 553 2011-01-09 03:00:07 <marioxcc> i got it
 554 2011-01-09 03:01:49 * luke-jr ponders how to split that 1.5 BTC into 8 (142 deci) ᵗTBC coins
 555 2011-01-09 03:02:45 <marioxcc> split?
 556 2011-01-09 03:02:49 <luke-jr> yeah
 557 2011-01-09 03:02:58 <marioxcc> i don't get it, what do you mean?
 558 2011-01-09 03:03:38 <luke-jr> input:1,50000000 + (output:0,01048576) * 142
 559 2011-01-09 03:03:54 <luke-jr> right now, I have a single 1.5 BTC coin from you
 560 2011-01-09 03:04:36 <marioxcc> so what do you want to do?
 561 2011-01-09 03:04:57 <luke-jr> turn it into 142 coins, each 1 ᵗTBC large
 562 2011-01-09 03:05:01 <luke-jr> (last one slightly larger)
 563 2011-01-09 03:05:20 <theymos> You can have 142 outputs in a transaction, though this is forbidden by generators.
 564 2011-01-09 03:05:30 <luke-jr> theymos: why?
 565 2011-01-09 03:05:48 <marioxcc> too big i think
 566 2011-01-09 03:05:52 <marioxcc> limit is 500 Kb
 567 2011-01-09 03:06:02 <luke-jr> 1000 bytes I think
 568 2011-01-09 03:06:06 <theymos> The maximum number of outputs is 2, which is the most Bitcoin will send normally.
 569 2011-01-09 03:06:09 <luke-jr> but then I just need multiple tx
 570 2011-01-09 03:06:20 <luke-jr> theymos: where is that stupid limit? -.-
 571 2011-01-09 03:06:30 <marioxcc> luke-jr: but what do you want it to be "splited"?
 572 2011-01-09 03:06:35 <luke-jr> ?
 573 2011-01-09 03:06:42 <marioxcc> <luke-jr> turn it into 142 coins, each 1 ᵗTBC large
 574 2011-01-09 03:07:01 <marioxcc> just think you have 142 ᵗTBC
 575 2011-01-09 03:07:08 <theymos> luke-jr: Line 633 of my main.cpp: if (GetSigOpCount() > 2 || nSize < 100)
 576 2011-01-09 03:07:17 <luke-jr> marioxcc: experimental :P
 577 2011-01-09 03:07:51 <marioxcc> luke-jr: ok, just clarifying: the client just sends what is need on each transaction, you don't have to split anything
 578 2011-01-09 03:08:00 <marioxcc> it is done automatically
 579 2011-01-09 03:08:12 <luke-jr> marioxcc: no
 580 2011-01-09 03:08:25 <luke-jr> the client can only send exact amounts it has received
 581 2011-01-09 03:08:43 <luke-jr> to send any other amount, it needs to split
 582 2011-01-09 03:08:49 <luke-jr> or combine
 583 2011-01-09 03:08:50 <marioxcc> luke-jr: i mean that
 584 2011-01-09 03:08:55 <marioxcc> splitting is done automatically
 585 2011-01-09 03:09:12 <luke-jr> marioxcc: but not ideally
 586 2011-01-09 03:09:15 <luke-jr> hence my lost BTC
 587 2011-01-09 03:09:57 <marioxcc> luke-jr: no, they has been lost because the output has been rounded
 588 2011-01-09 03:10:10 <marioxcc> not "lost", just a miner operator haves them now
 589 2011-01-09 03:10:48 <theymos> It's not really "rounded". When Bitcoin sees that it is about to send a change that is less than 0.01, it throws the amount away instead.
 590 2011-01-09 03:11:20 <luke-jr> theymos: my version currently adds the change, then adds a fee ☹
 591 2011-01-09 03:11:33 <marioxcc> uh
 592 2011-01-09 03:11:47 <marioxcc> luke-jr: any repository set up to see changes?
 593 2011-01-09 03:11:58 <luke-jr> marioxcc: not atm, I'll push in a min
 594 2011-01-09 03:12:14 <luke-jr> probably reverting that one though
 595 2011-01-09 03:13:07 <marioxcc> ok
 596 2011-01-09 03:14:06 <sgornick> FWIW: http://www.tiobe.com/index.php/content/paperinfo/tpci/index.html
 597 2011-01-09 03:14:08 <theymos> luke-jr: Why do you add the change first? Doesn't that have the exact same result?
 598 2011-01-09 03:14:22 <luke-jr> theymos: no, it's more expensive XD

 601 2011-01-09 03:20:29 <luke-jr> ok, I forged a 1 ᵗTBC transaction with gdb
 602 2011-01-09 03:20:35 <luke-jr> let's see if it gets into a block :D
 603 2011-01-09 03:20:38 <luke-jr> (no tx fee)
 604 2011-01-09 03:21:09 <marioxcc> let's see
 605 2011-01-09 03:21:10 <luke-jr>     "balance" : 4.80234567,
 606 2011-01-09 03:21:16 <luke-jr> something tells me I'll never get that fixed :P
 607 2011-01-09 03:21:49 <theymos> Did you modify RPC for more precision? I thought it rounded the balance.
 608 2011-01-09 03:22:00 <luke-jr> theymos: it rounded inputs
 609 2011-01-09 03:22:07 <marioxcc> i don't undestand why they use Json in the first place
 610 2011-01-09 03:22:16 <marioxcc> a simple SMTP-like protocol will do
 611 2011-01-09 03:23:05 <marioxcc> SEND 1HF4qGy3FX6JYzz64jexvcZaAJJf6ZRPsy 1
 612 2011-01-09 03:23:13 <marioxcc> can it be simpler?
 613 2011-01-09 03:23:52 <soultcer> Jsonrpc is a simple RPC, trust me
 614 2011-01-09 03:23:54 <soultcer> Ever head of SOAP?
 615 2011-01-09 03:24:02 <theymos> I think JSON-RPC is easier to implement for web sites.
 616 2011-01-09 03:24:10 <marioxcc> web sites?
 617 2011-01-09 03:24:19 <marioxcc> hey, this is a local program
 618 2011-01-09 03:24:27 <luke-jr> marioxcc: …
 619 2011-01-09 03:25:06 <theymos> JSON-RPC was implemented just so that websites like MtGox could function easily. The command-line interface to it was an afterthought.
 620 2011-01-09 03:25:11 <luke-jr> bzr branch lp:~luke-jr/+junk/bitcoin-tonal
 621 2011-01-09 03:25:27 <marioxcc> do you like GIT?
 622 2011-01-09 03:25:33 <luke-jr> shrug
 623 2011-01-09 03:25:39 <luke-jr> slightly more than bzr
 624 2011-01-09 03:25:47 <luke-jr> but bitcoin official is svn
 625 2011-01-09 03:25:50 <luke-jr> and bzr works better with svn
 626 2011-01-09 03:26:10 <marioxcc> there is a git svn command
 627 2011-01-09 03:26:18 <luke-jr> that's nice, I don't like such
 628 2011-01-09 03:26:22 <luke-jr> bzr works with svn transparently
 629 2011-01-09 03:26:26 <luke-jr> I don't have to know it's svn
 630 2011-01-09 03:26:37 <luke-jr> it's treated the same as any other bzr repo
 631 2011-01-09 03:27:04 <marioxcc> oh well, I guess that's why BZR is popular
 632 2011-01-09 03:27:12 <luke-jr> ☺
 633 2011-01-09 03:27:12 <marioxcc> it seems so simple to use
 634 2011-01-09 03:27:15 <luke-jr> yeah
 635 2011-01-09 03:27:25 <luke-jr> bzr supports basically all the same commands as subversion
 636 2011-01-09 03:27:33 <luke-jr> while also supporting more complex use like git
 637 2011-01-09 03:27:43 <marioxcc> however, being transparent with an incompatible thing like SVN can't lead to a good end :)
 638 2011-01-09 03:27:50 <luke-jr> it's not incompatible
 639 2011-01-09 03:28:08 <luke-jr> bzr can pull and push from/to svn like any other branches
 640 2011-01-09 03:28:21 <marioxcc> oh, sure, repository as branch
 641 2011-01-09 03:28:26 <luke-jr> although admittedly some metadata is lost bzr-side
 642 2011-01-09 03:28:26 <marioxcc> I didn't every liked that
 643 2011-01-09 03:28:35 <marioxcc> *ever
 644 2011-01-09 03:28:37 * luke-jr likes that MUCH better than git's way
 645 2011-01-09 03:28:44 <luke-jr> git forces me to have a single working tree ☹
 646 2011-01-09 03:28:50 <marioxcc> no, it don't
 647 2011-01-09 03:29:06 <marioxcc> also, it is easier that way
 648 2011-01-09 03:29:11 <luke-jr> not really
 649 2011-01-09 03:29:13 <marioxcc> branches are everyday things in git
 650 2011-01-09 03:29:27 <marioxcc> using a single working tree is only more comfortable with proper tools
 651 2011-01-09 03:29:57 <marioxcc> you can anyway
 652 2011-01-09 03:29:59 <luke-jr> no, because then when you change branches everything needs to be recompiled every time
 653 2011-01-09 03:30:04 <marioxcc> clone a local repository
 654 2011-01-09 03:30:26 <luke-jr> branches are more pain-free with bzr
 655 2011-01-09 03:30:30 <marioxcc> luke-jr: not everything, only what have changed, but that's only true if you switch branches
 656 2011-01-09 03:30:35 <luke-jr> I make branches for each and every feature or bugfix
 657 2011-01-09 03:30:42 <marioxcc> I do too
 658 2011-01-09 03:30:49 <xelister> theymos: ok, and to receive payments, and verify them, I need block headers - so I need to receive inv and then send out getheaders and receive headers?
 659 2011-01-09 03:30:58 <marioxcc> and I have no problem really
 660 2011-01-09 03:31:29 <marioxcc> still no block, hmm
 661 2011-01-09 03:31:50 <xelister> and last, if I want to also generate/mine, then I need receive inv, send out getdata or getblocks and receive block?
 662 2011-01-09 03:31:55 <xelister> theymos: ^
 663 2011-01-09 03:33:00 <luke-jr>         "comment" : "sending 1 \u00E1\u00B5\u0097TBC"
 664 2011-01-09 03:33:03 <luke-jr> this is a bug.
 665 2011-01-09 03:33:16 <luke-jr> \xE1\xB5\x97 would be correct
 666 2011-01-09 03:33:29 <luke-jr> but if it's going to try to decode Unicode, it should do it right! :P

 670 2011-01-09 03:34:36 <luke-jr> or are these comments on the network at all?
 671 2011-01-09 03:36:42 <marioxcc> i think they're only supported for IP transactions
 672 2011-01-09 03:36:50 <luke-jr> wtf are those
 673 2011-01-09 03:37:07 <marioxcc> you can pay to an IP

 686 2011-01-09 03:41:28 <theymos> xelister: Additional as-yet-unimplemented network stuff is necessary to use just headers all the time. Right now you can download headers for all blocks that you're sure you didn't get a payment in, and then you have to download full blocks after that. You can discard the blocks after processing them into Merkle trees. Getting headers is just getheaders+headers. Getting blocks is getblocks+inv+block.

 710 2011-01-09 03:44:49 <luke-jr> if it works, you have a dir named bitcoin-tonal
 711 2011-01-09 03:44:53 <marioxcc> or magit
 712 2011-01-09 03:44:57 <marioxcc> yes, I have it
 713 2011-01-09 03:44:59 <luke-jr> cd there, qmake and make

 718 2011-01-09 03:47:10 <marioxcc> the important thing is i have the code

 721 2011-01-09 03:47:31 <marioxcc> haven't you used gitk?
 722 2011-01-09 03:47:34 <luke-jr> no
 723 2011-01-09 03:47:35 <marioxcc> i'm looking for that

 725 2011-01-09 03:47:47 <luke-jr> oh
 726 2011-01-09 03:47:51 <luke-jr> qbzr does that
 727 2011-01-09 03:47:53 <marioxcc> and you can click them
 728 2011-01-09 03:47:54 <marioxcc> then get the diff

 735 2011-01-09 03:49:53 <marioxcc> it has a gitk-like log
 736 2011-01-09 03:49:56 <luke-jr> if you install qbzr, the command to see that stuff is: bzr qlog
 737 2011-01-09 03:50:15 <marioxcc> hmm, maybe later
 738 2011-01-09 03:50:21 <marioxcc> it is a bit late just now

 815 2011-01-09 07:26:10 <kartofeln> is there a version field in the protocol?
 816 2011-01-09 07:26:24 TheAncientGoat has joined
 817 2011-01-09 07:32:31 <newsham> there is
 818 2011-01-09 07:32:52 <newsham> hmm. does the std bitcoin client let you include messages in transactions?
 819 2011-01-09 07:33:03 <tcatm> no
 820 2011-01-09 07:33:23 <newsham> the protocol itself allows the possibility
 821 2011-01-09 07:33:28 <newsham> it would be a useful feature.
 822 2011-01-09 07:33:53 <tcatm> the address is the message
 823 2011-01-09 07:34:01 <freetx> I believe messages are only supported on 'ip transactions'
 824 2011-01-09 07:34:26 <newsham> "It's possible to add arbitrary data to any transaction by just adding some data along with OP_DROP (or ommitting OP_DROP and allowing the value to sit on the stack unused)."
 825 2011-01-09 07:34:31 <Diablo-D3> yes, its only on ip transactions
 826 2011-01-09 07:34:35 <Diablo-D3> and PLEASE dont use ip transactions
 827 2011-01-09 07:34:53 <Diablo-D3> its something that should have never been included in thei protocol
 828 2011-01-09 07:35:00 <freetx> moreover, all messages would be completely public
 829 2011-01-09 07:35:08 <Diablo-D3> btw, all messages in the chain are public
 830 2011-01-09 07:35:25 <kartofeln> I'm not even how one *would* use IP transaction in a not-completely-contrived scenario.
 831 2011-01-09 07:35:57 <Diablo-D3> send 50btc to newegg.com
 832 2011-01-09 07:35:57 <Diablo-D3> ding.
 833 2011-01-09 07:36:33 <newsham> public messages could be very useful.
 834 2011-01-09 07:36:46 <Diablo-D3> https://failblog.files.wordpress.com/2011/01/6ae56459-2456-4b08-9a05-c5ad49698491.jpg
 835 2011-01-09 07:36:48 <kartofeln> ah.. sounds like it would benefit from being replaced by a dns extension that'd return a bitcoin address for a specific record type.
 836 2011-01-09 07:37:47 <Diablo-D3> yup
 837 2011-01-09 07:37:52 <Diablo-D3> it'd be much better
 838 2011-01-09 07:38:04 <newsham> for example, if you sent a specific message to me with payment, and i sent a 0.01btc payment in return that said "ack transaction number", it would be on public record that the two of use agreed to some message with some payment.
 839 2011-01-09 07:38:12 <newsham> that is a useful feature in some situations
 840 2011-01-09 07:38:20 <newsham> s/use/us/
 841 2011-01-09 07:39:06 <freetx> but couldn't that be done outside the protocol....just post that series on your website
 842 2011-01-09 07:39:25 <kartofeln> if it's in the block chain, it's pretty much cast in stone though.
 843 2011-01-09 07:39:27 <newsham> are there any open source bitcoin implementations in language other than C/C++?
 844 2011-01-09 07:39:52 <newsham> freetxt: it wouldnt be bound to the payment, nor would it be guaranteed by the cpu power behind the hash chain.
 845 2011-01-09 07:40:00 <kartofeln> could be good for contracts.. sign your message with pgp when you include it, other party signs it too, provides payment.
 846 2011-01-09 07:40:03 <newsham> also the protocol already supports the ability.. its just not in the client
 847 2011-01-09 07:40:33 <freetx> good point, but the side effects of messages is going to be a huge increase in database size
 848 2011-01-09 07:40:58 <kartofeln> trim the merkle tree?
 849 2011-01-09 07:41:02 <newsham> 0.01 exchanges could parasitically use the bitcoin block chain for publishing information w/ good guarantees
 850 2011-01-09 07:41:03 <kartofeln> when is that supposed to happen anhow?
 851 2011-01-09 07:41:20 <newsham> freetx: right, but i can do that already... possible attack point on btc?
 852 2011-01-09 07:41:26 <newsham> tons of small tx's with huge scripts...
 853 2011-01-09 07:42:23 <newsham> basically the block chain is a unspoofable way to publish information bound to a time (or at least an ordering).
 854 2011-01-09 07:42:38 <newsham> and its used for one purpose (eliminate double spending0 but could easily be hijacked for other uses
 855 2011-01-09 07:45:20 <freetx> yes, it would eventually devolve into people sending .01 btc back and forth, using bitcoin protocol as unspoofable chat method
 856 2011-01-09 07:45:50 <newsham> so lets do it! ;-)
 857 2011-01-09 07:46:20 <newsham> whats the purpose for a powerful scripting engine in the protocol, btw?
 858 2011-01-09 07:46:29 * kartofeln seconds the question.
 859 2011-01-09 07:47:56 <newsham> is that to allow for transaction fees ?
 860 2011-01-09 07:50:12 <newsham> "bit-twitter"? :)
 861 2011-01-09 07:51:06 <freetx> Ha. at least people would need to pay to announce what they had for breakfast to the rest of the non-interested world
 862 2011-01-09 07:51:36 <kartofeln> they could be paying themselves :-/
 863 2011-01-09 07:52:32 <freetx> yes, in which case BTC would grind to a halt via American Idol fans.
 864 2011-01-09 07:52:47 <newsham> is there a separate test bitcoin network?  or is the same infrastructure used for both test and non-test stuff?
 865 2011-01-09 07:53:04 <kartofeln> would it? do we have an idea of the scale of tx/seq BTC could handle?
 866 2011-01-09 07:53:16 <kartofeln> probably as a function of the current active node count.
 867 2011-01-09 07:53:22 <newsham> is there a current limit to number of TX's per block?  if so, there's a natural rate limit to bittwitter
 868 2011-01-09 07:53:29 <newsham> (and a DoS attack I guess)
 869 2011-01-09 07:53:51 <newsham> i guess since the net is based on cpu voting, the majority of clients could just be reprogrammed to reject the messages
 870 2011-01-09 07:54:11 <kartofeln> but what if they didn't? how much would be too much?
 871 2011-01-09 07:54:18 <newsham> also TX fees could mitigate
 872 2011-01-09 07:54:47 <newsham> if there's spamming of TXs, you could just reject messages that didnt have enough tx fee
 873 2011-01-09 07:55:00 <newsham> at soem point spamming would be too expensive
 874 2011-01-09 07:55:01 <kartofeln> newsham: there's a -testnet switch on the bitcoin client that may or may not enable a separate test bitcoin network.
 875 2011-01-09 07:55:12 <kartofeln> I think it does, but I'm not positive.
 876 2011-01-09 07:55:22 <newsham> kart: ahh.  do you knwo if it uses the same pool of hosts or if it uses a diff one?
 877 2011-01-09 07:55:40 <kartofeln> I think you end up with a pool of whoever else started their clients with -testnet.
 878 2011-01-09 07:56:01 <kartofeln> aka a tiny tiny pool, in all likelihood.
 879 2011-01-09 07:56:21 <kartofeln> https://www.bitcoin.org/smf/index.php?topic=363.0
 880 2011-01-09 07:56:24 <bitbot> TEST network, for experimental development and hacking
 881 2011-01-09 07:58:24 <kartofeln> hmm. I think I'm going to go generate a million bitcoins on the test network. that'll sooth my nerves.
 882 2011-01-09 07:58:41 <newsham> hmmm soon test net will be the new bittwitter! :)

 886 2011-01-09 08:29:09 <xelister> and after some time we make decission which blocks-chain is the longest and throw out other blocks?

 974 2011-01-09 15:00:01 <T_X> Diablo-D3: just to let you know, debian has now added the 260 nvidia driver packages for i386 as well (and not only amd64), so I upgraded from version 256 now. and after doing a "echo 0 > /proc/sys/net/ipv6/bindv6only", everything works now for the first time :)
 975 2011-01-09 15:01:06 <T_X> in fact, with m0mchil's miner, I had 100% cpu usage on one core and about 1.8Mhash/s. with your miner I have ~4.5Mhash/s now and about 50% cpu usage on average on one core (somtimes only 30%, somtimes 100%)
 976 2011-01-09 15:01:24 <T_X> an X is lagging as hell :)
 977 2011-01-09 15:01:56 <ArtForz> sounds like mining alright ;)
 978 2011-01-09 15:02:04 <T_X> hehe, yep :)
 979 2011-01-09 15:03:17 <T_X> didn't expect to be able to more than double the hash rate and getting to 4.5Mhash/s with that  stupid nvidia 8600M GT
 980 2011-01-09 15:03:37 <T_X> :)
 981 2011-01-09 15:04:00 <ArtForz> thats not too bad
 982 2011-01-09 15:04:51 <T_X> (ok, still not comparable with those high end cards, but ok). I'd be interested in getting the Mhash/s / Watt value, but don't have the measurement thingy here right now
 983 2011-01-09 15:04:54 <ArtForz> my spreadsheet says 4.58Mh/s
 984 2011-01-09 15:05:10 <ArtForz> so getting 4.5 is quite decent
 985 2011-01-09 15:05:13 <T_X> ArtForz: ah, the one in the wiki?
 986 2011-01-09 15:05:30 <ArtForz> yep
 987 2011-01-09 15:05:32 <T_X> the last time I looked at that the 8600M GT was not included
 988 2011-01-09 15:05:36 <ArtForz> well, it's what the wiki numbers are from
 989 2011-01-09 15:06:31 <ArtForz> wikipedia says 20W for that 8600M GT
 990 2011-01-09 15:06:52 <ArtForz> so... about 0.23 Mh/W

 992 2011-01-09 15:07:19 <ArtForz> not bad for nvidia, thats on par with a GTX580
 993 2011-01-09 15:07:49 <ArtForz> and about 1/8 of a HD5970
 994 2011-01-09 15:08:39 <ArtForz> and yes, 1/8, as in, a 5970 does 8x the hashes per kWh :/

 999 2011-01-09 15:17:29 <ArtForz> that data is based on a oo calc spreadsheet I'm keeping

1001 2011-01-09 15:19:05 <T_X> ah, ok, so the current version of your spreadsheet is not public?
1002 2011-01-09 15:19:23 <ArtForz> nope
1003 2011-01-09 15:19:29 <ArtForz> easy enough toi replicate though
1004 2011-01-09 15:21:53 <ArtForz> 6640 clocks/alu/hash is a good estimate for nvidia and ati 4xxx, 4330 clocks/alu/hash for 5xxx
1005 2011-01-09 15:23:06 <ArtForz> so 8600M GT has 32 ALUs @ 950MHz; 32 * 950M / 6640 = ~ 4.58M
1006 2011-01-09 15:24:59 <Diablo-D3> [09:56:25] <T_X> Diablo-D3: just to let you know, debian has now added the 260 nvidia driver packages for i386 as well (and not only amd64), so I upgraded from version 256 now. and after doing a "echo 0 > /proc/sys/net/ipv6/bindv6only", everything works now for the first time :)
1007 2011-01-09 15:25:13 <Diablo-D3> that bindv6only thing is basically needed for all java apps that use the network on broken javas
1008 2011-01-09 15:25:22 <T_X> yes, I know
1009 2011-01-09 15:25:36 <ArtForz> the 6640 / 4330 ops/hash numbers are pretty much just made up to agree with the real world
1010 2011-01-09 15:25:39 <T_X> I have to do the same for eclipse for instance
1011 2011-01-09 15:25:53 <Diablo-D3> T_X: HOWEVER
1012 2011-01-09 15:26:00 <Diablo-D3> I wasnt aware java still needed that

1166 2011-01-09 20:03:19 <gavinandresen> hey tcatm
1167 2011-01-09 20:04:25 <tcatm> Did I already ask you why sum(accounts) != server balance?
1168 2011-01-09 20:04:57 <gavinandresen> Nope.  If it really does, then there's a bug.  sum(listaccounts) should always equal getbalance
1169 2011-01-09 20:05:15 <gavinandresen> (... just don't forget the "" account)
1170 2011-01-09 20:05:36 <ThomasV> perhaps it's doing fractional reserve accounting ?
1171 2011-01-09 20:05:38 <edcba> maybe rounding at display ?
1172 2011-01-09 20:06:09 <gavinandresen> edcba: that'
1173 2011-01-09 20:06:17 <gavinandresen> edcba: that's a good hypothesis....
1174 2011-01-09 20:06:38 <gavinandresen> edcba:  I didn't test sub-0.01-cent transactions.

1206 2011-01-09 21:18:50 james_ has joined
1207 2011-01-09 21:19:20 <nelisky> I have a linux bitcoind with all the blocks downloaded... if I swap the wallet.dat file, it doesn't appear to parse the existing blocks against the new wallet
1208 2011-01-09 21:19:38 james__ has quit (Ping timeout: 272 seconds)
1209 2011-01-09 21:19:47 <nelisky> leaving me with 0 balance, even though there is one deposit in one of the (already in blkindex) blocks
1210 2011-01-09 21:20:03 <nelisky> is  this normal, and if so is there a way to force the re-parsing?
1211 2011-01-09 21:20:14 <nelisky> without having to download all the blocks again, of course
1212 2011-01-09 21:21:37 <sipa> did you restart bitcoind?
1213 2011-01-09 21:22:25 <nelisky> sure
1214 2011-01-09 21:22:32 <nelisky> stop, cp wallet, start
1215 2011-01-09 21:22:57 <nelisky> listreceivedbyaddress 0 true shows the address
1216 2011-01-09 21:23:03 <sipa> hmm, it worked here
1217 2011-01-09 21:23:05 <nelisky> so the wallet file should be good
1218 2011-01-09 21:23:39 <nelisky> block explorer shows the transaction
1219 2011-01-09 21:23:42 <ArtForz> yeah
1220 2011-01-09 21:23:49 <ArtForz> yeah, iirc it's not picking up transactions from already downloaded blocks
1221 2011-01-09 21:24:26 <nelisky> so my option is re-download everything...
1222 2011-01-09 21:24:27 <nelisky> darn
1223 2011-01-09 21:24:40 <ArtForz> iirc theres a patch so you dont have to re-dl blocks
1224 2011-01-09 21:24:41 <nelisky> I need to keep copies of blk* at several time points
1225 2011-01-09 21:25:03 <nelisky> ArtForz: thanks, I'll look up the forum, I do remember reading about it

1311 2011-01-09 22:27:38 <fabianhjr> dovout weed comes from colombia; ask them ;3
1312 2011-01-09 22:27:47 <lolcat> I accept any weed in the mail for bitcoins...
1313 2011-01-09 22:27:53 <lolcat> Like, smokable weed

1316 2011-01-09 22:28:29 <davout> i went on the dutch forums to suggest weed for bitcoins

1321 2011-01-09 22:29:53 <davout> i wish i could generate some weed on my 5970 instead of stupid bitcoins
1322 2011-01-09 22:30:13 <fabianhjr> dovout do you have an atomic level 3D printer?
1323 2011-01-09 22:30:15 <fabianhjr> xD
1324 2011-01-09 22:30:37 <fabianhjr> That would be hell hilarious if you could print anything on a common printer.
1325 2011-01-09 22:30:44 <lolcat> lfm: It is more like 140 in Norway
1326 2011-01-09 22:30:58 <marioxcc> society will just get used to it, then it won't be longer amanzing
1327 2011-01-09 22:31:13 <marioxcc> *amazing
1328 2011-01-09 22:31:13 <davout> yea... i would totally print a babysitter for my daughter
1329 2011-01-09 22:31:24 <lolcat> I would print a slave
1330 2011-01-09 22:31:28 <lolcat> And real coins
1331 2011-01-09 22:31:36 <newsham> dev question, the IsStandard() check in script.cpp prevents the majority of bitcoin clients from accepting/working on transactions that have embedded messages, yes?
1332 2011-01-09 22:31:37 <davout> i would print a printer
1333 2011-01-09 22:31:43 <lfm> lolcat just that I like the 5770s, not sure what you could get for less
1334 2011-01-09 22:32:04 <davout> newsham: i reckon the check only prevents them from working on them
1335 2011-01-09 22:32:36 <fabianhjr> lolcat: the ATI GPUs are the best for mining. They are more cheaper per MHash/sec than Nvidia's
1336 2011-01-09 22:32:39 <ArtForz> iirc it also prevents them from passing em on nowadays
1337 2011-01-09 22:32:51 <newsham> but in effect, that means the bitcoin network wont allow messages, barring any large-hps box which does allow them, right?
1338 2011-01-09 22:33:03 * luke-jr modifies his client to avoid sub-cent change
1339 2011-01-09 22:33:08 <davout> ArtForw: but they'll recognize blocks who have them, amirite?
1340 2011-01-09 22:33:14 <ArtForz> yep
1341 2011-01-09 22:33:16 <lolcat> fabianhjr: I know, but I almost want to get a computer without a gpu, I could just vnc into it, and I'd not have have to move to use it...
1342 2011-01-09 22:33:41 <davout> so somehow you should send your txs to slush's pooled miner
1343 2011-01-09 22:33:52 <luke-jr> lolcat: wtf?
1344 2011-01-09 22:34:04 <newsham> how common are transactions with transaction fees?
1345 2011-01-09 22:34:04 <ArtForz> yep, you pretty much vae to directly connect to a decent miner or a bunch that accept nonstandard tx
1346 2011-01-09 22:34:05 <davout> or any large miner for the matter
1347 2011-01-09 22:34:20 <davout> yea that does accept them
1348 2011-01-09 22:34:27 <luke-jr> lolcat: 1. you can't have a local monitor at all without a GPU; 2. you can VNC to a computer with a GPU
1349 2011-01-09 22:34:41 <newsham> do any of the large pools or gpu farms filter out tx's that dont have tx fees?
1350 2011-01-09 22:34:42 <fabianhjr> lolcat: in that case get the sempron from AMD(1-core) a 1 GB DDR3 stick(Which here in mexico are cheaper than the DDR2 or DDR ones 0_o) and a mobo with integrated graphics.
1351 2011-01-09 22:34:46 <lolcat> luke-jr: I am planning on building a computer, 8GB ram, i7-2600K, 3x 2TB, 60GB ssd, and so on. But a gpu is expencive
1352 2011-01-09 22:34:59 <ArtForz> ?
1353 2011-01-09 22:35:04 <luke-jr> lolcat: not as expensive as all that
1354 2011-01-09 22:35:16 <lolcat> I know, but I dont know what I would remove
1355 2011-01-09 22:35:17 <luke-jr> heck, you can get a GPU cheaper than the RAM
1356 2011-01-09 22:35:19 <lfm> newsham If you add up all the transaction fees ever paid on bitcoin you still wont get as much as one 50btc block finders reward
1357 2011-01-09 22:35:22 <ArtForz> yep
1358 2011-01-09 22:35:24 <fabianhjr> lolcat: you want to get it for mining?
1359 2011-01-09 22:35:27 <luke-jr> lolcat: wtf do you need an i7 for?
1360 2011-01-09 22:35:30 <ArtForz> compared to 16GB ECC ram even a midrange GPU is kinda cheap
1361 2011-01-09 22:35:37 <lolcat> fabianhjr: Fileserver and leetness
1362 2011-01-09 22:35:44 <newsham> lfm: can you submit miner blocks that have no txs in them (other than the 50btc reward)?
1363 2011-01-09 22:35:54 <ArtForz> beauty of AMD, desktop CPUs with ECC support
1364 2011-01-09 22:36:08 <lfm> newsham yes
1365 2011-01-09 22:36:24 <newsham> lfm: so a large pool could reject all no tx-fee txs and still be just as profitable.
1366 2011-01-09 22:36:27 <lolcat> The i7-2600K overclocked to 4,8GHZ beats any AMD cpu...
1367 2011-01-09 22:36:33 <ArtForz> I'm kinda paranoid since a latent bit error wiped out my win2k box half a decade ago or so
1368 2011-01-09 22:36:39 <lfm> newsham pretty much ya
1369 2011-01-09 22:36:44 <fabianhjr> lolcat: get the cheap opetrons from AMD and less RAM(2-4 GB) install something that is not failpache(Apache) and you should be fine.
1370 2011-01-09 22:36:48 <ArtForz> okay, show me a intel desktop cpu/chipset with ECC ram support
1371 2011-01-09 22:36:51 <newsham> artforz: how were you able to dtermine the cause?
1372 2011-01-09 22:36:52 <tcatm> jgarzik: ping?
1373 2011-01-09 22:36:56 <newsham> (i'm all for ecc)
1374 2011-01-09 22:37:01 <jgarzik> tcatm: pong

1377 2011-01-09 22:37:16 <lolcat> fabianhjr: What would I need apache for on a fileserver? I want files, not webpages...
1378 2011-01-09 22:37:17 <newsham> oh, it was a permanent bit error.
1379 2011-01-09 22:37:24 <luke-jr> ArtForz: that's what backups are for
1380 2011-01-09 22:37:25 <fabianhjr> xD
1381 2011-01-09 22:37:28 <tcatm> jgarzik: is your QR code sepcification still "valid"?
1382 2011-01-09 22:37:28 <lolcat> Also, I like to cache files in the ram
1383 2011-01-09 22:37:30 <ArtForz> yes
1384 2011-01-09 22:37:36 <newsham> luke: bit errors can wreak havoc with backups too
1385 2011-01-09 22:37:37 <fabianhjr> Ok then just get 1-2 GB ram xD
1386 2011-01-09 22:37:47 <jgarzik> tcatm: it seemed like people wanted to use bitcoin URIs
1387 2011-01-09 22:37:47 <luke-jr> newsham: not really
1388 2011-01-09 22:37:48 <newsham> corruption is a bad failur emode
1389 2011-01-09 22:37:52 <ArtForz> yes really
1390 2011-01-09 22:38:08 <luke-jr> not incremental backups
1391 2011-01-09 22:38:13 <luke-jr> I use git
1392 2011-01-09 22:38:15 <luke-jr> :D
1393 2011-01-09 22:38:21 <ArtForz> trying to figure out which file got damaged when is a PITA
1394 2011-01-09 22:38:29 <newsham> luke: you still have to identify which part of yoru backups are not corrupt.

1396 2011-01-09 22:38:45 <fabianhjr> lolcat: I suppose you are going to use the HDDs in a RAID 5 configuration, right?
1397 2011-01-09 22:38:46 <newsham> and there still might be more recent data which has gotten messed up that is important
1398 2011-01-09 22:38:49 <lolcat> fabianhjr: Yes
1399 2011-01-09 22:38:52 <newsham> yo may not notice corruption for a while
1400 2011-01-09 22:38:53 <lfm> all backups are corrupt
1401 2011-01-09 22:38:59 <luke-jr> newsham: git log is useful
1402 2011-01-09 22:39:01 <fabianhjr> is this for backing purposes?
1403 2011-01-09 22:39:04 <newsham> *sigh*
1404 2011-01-09 22:39:06 <jgarzik> git fsck --full
1405 2011-01-09 22:39:07 <lolcat> Going down to 1GB ram saves me $60 USD, that won't make any diffrence
1406 2011-01-09 22:39:16 <tcatm> jgarzik: I'd like a mix of both. Do you think we could merge bitcoin:$address, x-btc and your spec?
1407 2011-01-09 22:39:19 <fabianhjr> lolcat: get the AMD Sempron
1408 2011-01-09 22:39:19 <luke-jr> lolcat: LOL?
1409 2011-01-09 22:39:21 <lolcat> fabianhjr: Yes, mostly non-vital stuff
1410 2011-01-09 22:39:24 <newsham> I give up..   why do i argue with lukejr?
1411 2011-01-09 22:39:29 <newsham> arguing on irc is so much fun
1412 2011-01-09 22:39:29 <luke-jr> I only have 2 GB RAM, and I use 5 GB memory

1415 2011-01-09 22:39:47 <ArtForz> anyways, gotta love AMD for supporting nonreg ECC in "desktop" CPUs
1416 2011-01-09 22:39:58 <luke-jr> ArtForz: sure, but I still don't see the point :P

1418 2011-01-09 22:40:02 <jgarzik> tcatm: yes, definitely
1419 2011-01-09 22:40:34 <ArtForz> run anything remotely important with any remotely important data
1420 2011-01-09 22:40:43 <lfm> some say ecc compilcations just increase the chances of failures
1421 2011-01-09 22:40:50 <luke-jr> ArtForz: again, incremental backups
1422 2011-01-09 22:41:03 <lolcat> fabianhjr: The i7-2600K is faster
1423 2011-01-09 22:41:28 <luke-jr> and yes, let the local machine do the git logic. just have your remotes refuse any history changes
1424 2011-01-09 22:41:32 <fabianhjr> lolcat: why do you need processor speed? mining while not using it?
1425 2011-01-09 22:41:42 <luke-jr> then you get the added benefit of being warned when something is screwy

1429 2011-01-09 22:42:28 <ArtForz> false positives wouldnt exactly cause data corruption
1430 2011-01-09 22:42:57 <fabianhjr> lolcat: is this for backup/fileserver uses or are you going to use it with a screen? Compiling what? 3D apps?

1433 2011-01-09 22:43:40 <lfm> artforz also kinda depends what you do when soft fails are reported. if you dont fix em then you get exposed to hard fails anyway
1434 2011-01-09 22:43:42 <marioxcc> fabianhjr: compiling some software can take very long if you don't have a good CPU
1435 2011-01-09 22:43:51 <ArtForz> yep
1436 2011-01-09 22:44:04 <ArtForz> ignoring soft fails isn't a too good idea
1437 2011-01-09 22:44:04 <fabianhjr> marioxcc: I am aware of that. :P
1438 2011-01-09 22:44:08 <lolcat> fabianhjr: I would prefer the option of having a screen, but at 150$ I am not sure it is worth it
1439 2011-01-09 22:44:29 <fabianhjr> lolcat: get a mobo with integrated graphics then.
1440 2011-01-09 22:44:39 <fabianhjr> There are many AMD ones.
1441 2011-01-09 22:45:14 <ArtForz> fails when the ram seems otherwise ok are very rare anyways
1442 2011-01-09 22:45:21 <lolcat> fabianhjr: The i7-2600k has a gpu built in, do any AMD cpus have built in gpus?
1443 2011-01-09 22:45:34 <fabianhjr> The issue would be 3D gaming. You could get an old ATI card for 50 bucks and play MW at lowest 480*640 if you want.
1444 2011-01-09 22:45:40 <lfm> you gotta run X anyway (if its linux) so why have another vid adapter?
1445 2011-01-09 22:45:43 <ArtForz> whats the point of poutting a fucking anemic GPU in a CPU?
1446 2011-01-09 22:45:52 <marioxcc> ArtForz: markething
1447 2011-01-09 22:46:05 <fabianhjr> ArtForz: that you must not buy a GPU at all.
1448 2011-01-09 22:46:17 <ArtForz> well, okay... except completely getting rid of a northbridge
1449 2011-01-09 22:46:18 <fabianhjr> Just use the shitty 2D graphics included.
1450 2011-01-09 22:46:19 <lfm> artforz same as putting aneimic gpu on motherboard

1454 2011-01-09 22:47:38 <fabianhjr> marioxcc: can compilers benefit with more cores?
1455 2011-01-09 22:48:02 <ArtForz> not directly, thats what we usually have parallel make for
1456 2011-01-09 22:48:04 <marioxcc> fabianhjr: mostly not, you just compile in parallel
1457 2011-01-09 22:48:04 <lfm> fabianhjr use parrallel make
1458 2011-01-09 22:48:07 <lolcat> fabianhjr: if you compile seceral things at once
1459 2011-01-09 22:48:10 <marioxcc> make -j 4
1460 2011-01-09 22:48:12 <ArtForz> make -j fuckload = fun

1464 2011-01-09 22:49:09 <ArtForz> especially with g++... "what do you mean, OOM on box with 8G ram"
1465 2011-01-09 22:49:16 <lfm> also gcc can be piplined to use more than one process
1466 2011-01-09 22:49:32 <marioxcc> lfm: really worth it?
1467 2011-01-09 22:49:40 <lfm> not a lot
1468 2011-01-09 22:50:34 <fabianhjr> Ok then, lolcat the Sempron is then perfect the 145 runs at 2.8 GHz(Same as my i7 930)
1469 2011-01-09 22:51:36 <marioxcc> fabianhjr: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Megahertz_myth
1470 2011-01-09 22:52:07 <lolcat> fabianhjr: But the 2600k runs at 3,4ghz and you can overclock it to 4,8ghz if you replace the fan with and icecube and use the computer fast
1471 2011-01-09 22:52:25 <fabianhjr> lolcat: LOL
1472 2011-01-09 22:52:30 <luke-jr> lfm: wtf? why would you need to run X? why would running X require a vid adapter?
1473 2011-01-09 22:52:38 <marioxcc> icecube? bah, use liquid nitrogen
1474 2011-01-09 22:52:41 <ArtForz> btw, S1366 i7 kinda feels like a marketing stunt
1475 2011-01-09 22:53:00 <lfm> luke-jr the opencl and cuda support are in the X drivers
1476 2011-01-09 22:53:08 <lolcat> fabianhjr: I think it can be run at 4,8ghz with air cooling
1477 2011-01-09 22:53:22 <luke-jr> lfm: proprietary drivers means not Linux
1478 2011-01-09 22:53:48 <lfm> luke huh?
1479 2011-01-09 22:53:48 <lolcat> fabianhjr: Asian overclocker windwithme has published benchmarks with an Intel Core i7-2600K CPU overclocked to 5.12 GHz with regular air cooling.
1480 2011-01-09 22:53:53 <ArtForz> with correct phase of the moon, maybe
1481 2011-01-09 22:54:35 <fabianhjr> lolcat: hehe, how much did it last and which aftermarket cooler?
1482 2011-01-09 22:54:47 <luke-jr> lfm: Linux is free software. A non-free kernel (such as one infected by nVidia or ATI's blobs) is not Linux
1483 2011-01-09 22:55:07 <lolcat> fabianhjr: No idea, doesn't intrest me much, but if he can do 5,12 I can do 4,8
1484 2011-01-09 22:55:23 <ArtForz> or 4.3
1485 2011-01-09 22:55:32 <davout> luke-jr: meh

1487 2011-01-09 22:56:03 <fabianhjr> lol no way. You will end up killing the cpu at a 50%+ increase xD
1488 2011-01-09 22:56:09 <ArtForz> sometimes CPUs are really downbinned because they're bad OCers

1496 2011-01-09 22:57:11 <marioxcc> it WAS _patented_, not non-free format

1498 2011-01-09 22:57:22 <davout> thats why the "if" couldn't be fucked looking up a non free one ;)
1499 2011-01-09 22:57:22 <luke-jr> marioxcc: patents are how formats are non-free
1500 2011-01-09 22:57:52 <marioxcc> luke-jr: well, depending on your interpretation of "format"
1501 2011-01-09 22:58:06 <ArtForz> yes, it's nowadays patent-free, it's also 8-bit with simple 1-bit mask transparency = teh suck
1502 2011-01-09 22:58:16 <lfm> yes software patents suck but theyre still out there

1523 2011-01-09 23:03:01 <ArtForz> you can get a patent the use of a algorithm in hardware
1524 2011-01-09 23:03:15 <davout> because i wanted to have some advance in opening the first european exchange
1525 2011-01-09 23:03:20 <ArtForz> which kinda makes sense
1526 2011-01-09 23:03:38 <davout> like in "but mummy, if i share my pie... does it mean i have less pie?Ã"

1529 2011-01-09 23:04:09 <ArtForz> it gets weird where you can also patent use of said algorithm in general-purpose hardware
1530 2011-01-09 23:04:11 <davout> kinda silly i know
1531 2011-01-09 23:04:24 <nanotube> davout: nah it's fine... was just curious. :)
1532 2011-01-09 23:04:27 <ArtForz> = now you got a sorta-but-not-quite SW patent
1533 2011-01-09 23:05:03 <davout> isn't the mp3 encoding algorithm patented?
1534 2011-01-09 23:05:10 <ArtForz> yes
1535 2011-01-09 23:05:22 <davout> zee germans again
1536 2011-01-09 23:05:30 <ArtForz> has been for like ages
1537 2011-01-09 23:05:31 <luke-jr> that's why most distros can't encode MP3s
1538 2011-01-09 23:05:58 <luke-jr> at least patents expire half-sanely
1539 2011-01-09 23:06:20 darsk1ez has joined
1540 2011-01-09 23:06:29 <lfm> ya seems mp3 should expire soon
1541 2011-01-09 23:06:36 <ArtForz> and again, it's weird
1542 2011-01-09 23:06:51 <davout> it's weird it hasn't been successfully challenged
1543 2011-01-09 23:06:57 <ArtForz> notice they never went after SW encoders
1544 2011-01-09 23:07:31 <ArtForz> not in EU at least
1545 2011-01-09 23:07:35 <marioxcc> any advance in general purpose timestamping with bitcoin network?
1546 2011-01-09 23:07:38 <lfm> just threats to bully peole into licences mosty
1547 2011-01-09 23:07:42 <davout> the whole concept of patenting a-particular-way-of-doing-something is so retarded
1548 2011-01-09 23:08:00 <sipa> marioxcc: how do you mean?
1549 2011-01-09 23:08:15 <ArtForz> didnt IBM patent patenting a while back?
1550 2011-01-09 23:08:22 <davout> lol
1551 2011-01-09 23:08:25 <lfm> davout isnt that what most inventions are?

1553 2011-01-09 23:08:39 <davout> i dunno
1554 2011-01-09 23:08:57 <davout> like to me, patenting an algorithm is like patenting a recipe for cooking sthg
1555 2011-01-09 23:09:02 <marioxcc> sipa: to use the bitcoin blocks to timestapm information in general
1556 2011-01-09 23:09:13 <ArtForz> dunno, patent standards in general seem to have... deteriorated
1557 2011-01-09 23:09:19 <sipa> marioxcc: referring to BitDNS/BitX ?
1558 2011-01-09 23:09:29 <marioxcc> sipa: uh? no
1559 2011-01-09 23:09:39 <sipa> can you give an example then?
1560 2011-01-09 23:10:08 <davout> marioxcc: timestamping is easier done on 4chan
1561 2011-01-09 23:10:10 <ArtForz> what got patented used to be novel and sometimes even useful inventions, nowadays it seems to be 'doing X, on the internet'
1562 2011-01-09 23:10:36 <marioxcc> davout: could you please elaborate?
1563 2011-01-09 23:10:43 <davout> marioxcc: nvm
1564 2011-01-09 23:10:52 <davout> i wasn't being serious

1566 2011-01-09 23:11:00 <marioxcc> ok
1567 2011-01-09 23:11:10 <lfm> artforz ya a lot of them sound like combining pancil and eraser which was not spozed to be patentable
1568 2011-01-09 23:11:15 <davout> anyway, to me, patents negate one of the fundamental things in human nature, imitation
1569 2011-01-09 23:11:37 <marioxcc> davout: i think they were originally meant as a artifficial right to promote invention
1570 2011-01-09 23:11:43 <davout> i like the way my 1.5 yo daughter puts the laundry in the dryer, just like mummy :)
1571 2011-01-09 23:11:43 <marioxcc> (and limited in time)
1572 2011-01-09 23:11:58 <davout> yea i know
1573 2011-01-09 23:12:35 <ArtForz> SW patents are just fucking crazy sometimes
1574 2011-01-09 23:12:44 <marioxcc> most the time, I would say
1575 2011-01-09 23:13:04 <ArtForz> especially when they patent fucking obvious things
1576 2011-01-09 23:13:09 <sipa> the idea for patents to give a limited-time monopoly to inventors, to stimulate research... when it is used to legally encumber solutions for problems that any expert in the field can come up with himself, its purpose is lost
1577 2011-01-09 23:13:14 <marioxcc> also when they patent impossible things
1578 2011-01-09 23:13:19 <lfm> worst is when they patent stuff that everyone has been doing for years
1579 2011-01-09 23:13:23 <ArtForz> yep
1580 2011-01-09 23:13:31 <marioxcc> ArtForz: http://gailly.net/05533051.html
1581 2011-01-09 23:13:37 <davout> lfm: well, theoretically thats not allowed
1582 2011-01-09 23:13:41 <marioxcc> Patent 5,533,051 on compression of random data, wtf?
1583 2011-01-09 23:13:52 <ArtForz> lol
1584 2011-01-09 23:14:02 <ArtForz> perpetual motion machine of SW patents
1585 2011-01-09 23:14:09 <marioxcc> sort of :)

1597 2011-01-09 23:17:04 <ArtForz> nice
1598 2011-01-09 23:17:10 <marioxcc> ArtForz: that makes me wonder, do they actually read the patents they approve?
1599 2011-01-09 23:17:12 <marioxcc> probably not

1601 2011-01-09 23:17:47 <ArtForz> yeah, I think there's plenty "rubberstamp em all, let the courts sort em out later" patent reviewers
1602 2011-01-09 23:17:50 <sipa> someone probably reads them
1603 2011-01-09 23:18:07 <marioxcc> ArtForz: seems so :/
1604 2011-01-09 23:18:16 <sipa> just to make sure something with typo's doesn't get accepted :D
1605 2011-01-09 23:18:24 <marioxcc> lol
1606 2011-01-09 23:18:46 <ArtForz> I think I remember finding quite a few typos and flat out wrong stuff in patents
1607 2011-01-09 23:20:27 <marioxcc> luke-jr: but it is > 0.01, would it require a fee anyway?
1608 2011-01-09 23:20:32 <ArtForz> as in, used formula with example inputs/outputs as given in patent produces completely different results from what the example in the patent says
1609 2011-01-09 23:20:58 <luke-jr> marioxcc: it would require a fee to output the change
1610 2011-01-09 23:21:12 <luke-jr> marioxcc: by adding a 3rd input, the change is ALSO >0.01
1611 2011-01-09 23:21:56 <marioxcc> weir

1614 2011-01-09 23:22:31 <marioxcc> dumb the one who designed the fee system for which there is a workaround, in the first place
1615 2011-01-09 23:22:35 <nanotube> luke-jr: seems like a good patch to suggest for inclusion into the client. to avoid unnecessary loss of subcents to fees.
1616 2011-01-09 23:22:48 <ArtForz> yep
1617 2011-01-09 23:23:07 <nanotube> marioxcc: you misunderstand the purpose of fees and specifically their requirement for <.01 tx outputs.
1618 2011-01-09 23:23:32 <marioxcc> nanotube: could you please elaborate?
1619 2011-01-09 23:23:54 * marioxcc adds a keybinding to insert that phrase in emacs
1620 2011-01-09 23:24:02 <luke-jr> nanotube: go ahead and merge :P
1621 2011-01-09 23:24:08 <ArtForz> imo fees on < 0.01 outputs is to avoid accumulating millions of unspent 0.00000001 transactions
1622 2011-01-09 23:24:08 <luke-jr> or pull
1623 2011-01-09 23:24:21 <ArtForz> doing that with >= 0.01 outputs is a lot more costly

1628 2011-01-09 23:24:58 <nanotube> said
1629 2011-01-09 23:25:06 <sipa> what's <.< ?
1630 2011-01-09 23:25:13 <marioxcc> but what's bad with such millions of 0.00000001 transactions?
1631 2011-01-09 23:25:16 <nanotube> it's a smiley, sipa
1632 2011-01-09 23:25:23 <marioxcc> can't you meld them?
1633 2011-01-09 23:25:31 <ArtForz> errrr... you have to keep em around
1634 2011-01-09 23:25:34 <nanotube> marioxcc: block chain bloat
1635 2011-01-09 23:25:57 <marioxcc> no, let's see
1636 2011-01-09 23:26:01 EvanR has joined
1637 2011-01-09 23:26:12 <marioxcc> if you get paid one base BTC (0.00000001)
1638 2011-01-09 23:26:49 <marioxcc> as soon as it gets confirmed you can do a transaction of X+0.00000001 back to one of your address
1639 2011-01-09 23:26:56 <marioxcc> (you or the client)
1640 2011-01-09 23:26:59 <ArtForz> and?
1641 2011-01-09 23:27:08 <sipa> nanotube: obviously, but what does it mean :)
1642 2011-01-09 23:27:09 <marioxcc> then what's the loss?
1643 2011-01-09 23:27:11 <ArtForz> that output is spent, I can forget about it if I want to
1644 2011-01-09 23:27:38 <ArtForz> I can prune a long chain of TX ending in one output to... that last TX
1645 2011-01-09 23:28:00 <ArtForz> if I have a million TX with unspent outputs, I have to keep em around just in case they ever get spent
1646 2011-01-09 23:28:33 <ArtForz> and disallowing "too small" outputs nicely reduces that problem

1648 2011-01-09 23:30:08 <marioxcc> ArtForz: my point is you can merge these milion tx into a single one to yourself
1649 2011-01-09 23:30:15 <marioxcc> then you only have to keep that one
1650 2011-01-09 23:30:23 <marioxcc> if i'm not missing anything
1651 2011-01-09 23:30:35 <marioxcc> or, do I?
1652 2011-01-09 23:30:36 <marioxcc> hmm
1653 2011-01-09 23:31:29 <ArtForz> you can't

1655 2011-01-09 23:31:48 <gavinandresen> marioxcc: the person generating the million 0.000000001 transactions isn't you, it is some jerk that just wants everybody, for all time, to have to carry around all those unspent microbitcoins.
1656 2011-01-09 23:31:56 <ArtForz> yep
1657 2011-01-09 23:32:32 <ArtForz> they're microbitcents ;)
1658 2011-01-09 23:33:07 <ArtForz> = creating 1M and leaving them unspent forever costs the attacker... 0.01 BTC
1659 2011-01-09 23:33:21 <gavinandresen> Cheap thrills.  If they're allowed to do that...
1660 2011-01-09 23:33:29 <ArtForz> doing the same with 0.01 tx ... 10000 btc
1661 2011-01-09 23:34:02 <marioxcc> ok
1662 2011-01-09 23:35:01 <sipa> there must be some better criterion to discourage that
1663 2011-01-09 23:35:27 <ArtForz> so 0.007 + 0.006 + 0.008 -> 0.01 + 0.011 is perfectly ok
1664 2011-01-09 23:35:59 <Diablo-D3> ArtForz: heh
1665 2011-01-09 23:36:15 <Diablo-D3> microbitcents is about right
1666 2011-01-09 23:36:22 <Diablo-D3> 6 places give us ubtc

1668 2011-01-09 23:36:38 <nanotube> gavinandresen: did you see luke-jr's earlier post about the patch that automatically ads inputs to prevent microoutputs and thus save on fees?
1669 2011-01-09 23:36:44 <ArtForz> and we have 8 places, so we have microcents ;)
1670 2011-01-09 23:36:54 <ArtForz> which kinda sounds somewhat cool
1671 2011-01-09 23:37:02 <sipa> if you have a transactions which use a lot of very small inputs, to create the same amount of very small outputs, there is no permanent damage to the block chain
1672 2011-01-09 23:37:05 <Diablo-D3> well, this makes little sense as possible, so...
1673 2011-01-09 23:37:08 <Diablo-D3> *cough*
1674 2011-01-09 23:37:14 <ArtForz> mixing prefixes is fun!
1675 2011-01-09 23:38:24 <ArtForz> sipa: yep
1676 2011-01-09 23:38:24 <gavinandresen> nanotube:  yup.  I didn't catch the start of the thread-- how did he end up with sub-0.01-cent transactions in the first place?  Is one of the shared miners creating sub-cent transactions?
1677 2011-01-09 23:38:37 <ArtForz> iirc the old one does
1678 2011-01-09 23:38:38 <nanotube> sipa: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_emoticons
1679 2011-01-09 23:39:01 <nanotube> gavinandresen: possibly. i don't think that was part of the conversation. :)
1680 2011-01-09 23:39:15 <ArtForz> slush's just internally accumulates shares until a miner gets >= 0.01
1681 2011-01-09 23:39:33 <ArtForz> the old pool created coinbases with sub-cent outputs
1682 2011-01-09 23:40:00 <ArtForz> slushs still produces stuff like 0.0123456 outputs though

1685 2011-01-09 23:40:36 <ArtForz> it used to
1686 2011-01-09 23:40:49 <marioxcc> but not any more
1687 2011-01-09 23:40:52 <ArtForz> so he now limits to whole cents?
1688 2011-01-09 23:40:59 <nanotube> ArtForz: yes..
1689 2011-01-09 23:41:05 <ArtForz> good
1690 2011-01-09 23:41:13 <marioxcc> wait
1691 2011-01-09 23:41:13 <nanotube> he hasn't sent microtx for a while now. maybe only at the very start.
1692 2011-01-09 23:41:15 CyanDynamo1 has quit (Quit: Leaving.)
1693 2011-01-09 23:41:26 <marioxcc> so every node have to keep the whole list of unspent transactions?
1694 2011-01-09 23:41:31 <ArtForz> yes
1695 2011-01-09 23:41:37 <nanotube> marioxcc: it's in the block chain. that's what the block chain is.
1696 2011-01-09 23:41:43 <ArtForz> well, kinda
1697 2011-01-09 23:41:57 <nanotube> well, currently it also keeps spent tx :)
1698 2011-01-09 23:42:24 <ArtForz> you also have to keep a DB of unspent TX so you can look em up quickly
1699 2011-01-09 23:42:32 <marioxcc> hey, didnt blocks just stored the merkle tree?
1700 2011-01-09 23:42:36 <gavinandresen> disk space is cheap, there's no real reason to try to delete old spent transactions.
1701 2011-01-09 23:42:57 <ArtForz> yeah
1702 2011-01-09 23:43:13 <ArtForz> but keeping em around in a DB so you can index by TXhash is a bit more costly
1703 2011-01-09 23:43:38 <gavinandresen> RE: subcent transactions in general:  I agree it all needs more careful thought.  davout had a related issue: https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/issues#issue/18
1704 2011-01-09 23:43:41 <ArtForz> especially as you have to do a bunch of lookups in that DB for every new TX you see
1705 2011-01-09 23:44:13 <marioxcc> oh, ok
1706 2011-01-09 23:45:24 <nanotube> gavinandresen: well, davout's problem is unsolvable, since he didn't have any extra bitcoins to throw in. right?
1707 2011-01-09 23:45:39 <nanotube> gavinandresen: he was sending 50 out of 50.00x total in wallet...
1708 2011-01-09 23:46:11 <luke-jr> I wish it did
1709 2011-01-09 23:46:15 <luke-jr> (slush's payouts)
1710 2011-01-09 23:46:31 <ArtForz> yep, whats the client supposed to do then?
1711 2011-01-09 23:46:33 <tcatm> I remember having that problem without those subcent becomes fee code. That's even more annoying.
1712 2011-01-09 23:46:40 <luke-jr> ArtForz: exactly what it does now with my patch :P
1713 2011-01-09 23:47:20 <luke-jr> tcatm: I fixed that
1714 2011-01-09 23:47:31 <ArtForz> so if you have 5.00 and 1.001 and send 6 it does... what exactly?
1715 2011-01-09 23:47:41 <luke-jr> ArtForz: then it loses :P
1716 2011-01-09 23:47:54 <luke-jr> bnt if you have 5, 1.001, and .999, then it uses all 3 and has 1 change
1717 2011-01-09 23:48:02 <ArtForz> unless we consider "just send more than requested" acceptable ;)
1718 2011-01-09 23:48:09 <gavinandresen> nanotube: perhaps the JSON-RPC api shouldn't be rounding... if you have 50.006 bitcoins, you should be able to send 50.006 bitcoins somewhere.
1719 2011-01-09 23:48:23 <luke-jr> ArtForz: you mean *un*acceptable?
1720 2011-01-09 23:48:30 <luke-jr> ArtForz: I see no reason it shouldn't be acceptable
1721 2011-01-09 23:48:30 <ArtForz> no, acceptable
1722 2011-01-09 23:48:46 <ArtForz> = I have 5 + 1.001, I want to send 6, recipient gets 6.001
1723 2011-01-09 23:48:58 <luke-jr> ArtForz: that's lame
1724 2011-01-09 23:49:10 <ArtForz> well, you lose the 0.001 anyways
1725 2011-01-09 23:49:19 <luke-jr> gavinandresen: my branch also does not round
1726 2011-01-09 23:49:26 <nanotube> gavinandresen: yea the forced rounding has been ticking me off for a while now. :P
1727 2011-01-09 23:49:30 <luke-jr> ArtForz: not if you have extra 1 BTC to throw on
1728 2011-01-09 23:49:32 <luke-jr> err
1729 2011-01-09 23:49:34 <luke-jr> 0.01 BTC
1730 2011-01-09 23:49:37 <ArtForz> yeah
1731 2011-01-09 23:49:42 <ArtForz> my personal branch hasn't been rounding for ages
1732 2011-01-09 23:49:47 <luke-jr> nanotube: gavinandresen: http://blockexplorer.com/tx/45e3fa0263155459f12ad8a24fd48e3731061eca918b81e1f89af8b0efd4857e
1733 2011-01-09 23:50:05 omglolbbq has quit (Ping timeout: 240 seconds)
1734 2011-01-09 23:50:08 <ArtForz> it also never produces fee-required transactions
1735 2011-01-09 23:50:16 <luke-jr> ArtForz: mine either, using ifndef :P
1736 2011-01-09 23:50:33 <luke-jr> it refuses to even *create* the transaction with a fee > what I explicitly set
1737 2011-01-09 23:50:47 <luke-jr> including sub-cent "fees"
1738 2011-01-09 23:50:48 <ArtForz> mine just creates it without fee
1739 2011-01-09 23:50:57 <luke-jr> ArtForz: how does that affect it?
1740 2011-01-09 23:51:14 <ArtForz> the netwrok wont pass on the TX, no other miner will include it
1741 2011-01-09 23:51:35 <ArtForz> which doesnt really matter all that much if you're producing about 1 block/hour
1742 2011-01-09 23:51:47 <luke-jr> wait, the network won't even pass it to miners?
1743 2011-01-09 23:51:52 <ArtForz> yep
1744 2011-01-09 23:51:57 <luke-jr> ew
1745 2011-01-09 23:52:46 <ArtForz> see the changes in r199 main.cpp
1746 2011-01-09 23:52:47 <nanotube> ArtForz: haha yea, the benefits of being a miner.
1747 2011-01-09 23:52:49 <luke-jr> so I need to connect direct to you, if I want to send sub-cent values w/o a fee? ;)
1748 2011-01-09 23:53:15 <ArtForz> actually I won't include "underfeed" tx from anyone else
1749 2011-01-09 23:53:25 <gavinandresen> luke-jr:  why do you want to send sub-cent transactions?
1750 2011-01-09 23:53:31 <ArtForz> benefits of being a miner ;)
1751 2011-01-09 23:53:36 <luke-jr> gavinandresen: because BTCents are too big
1752 2011-01-09 23:53:37 <nanotube> heh
1753 2011-01-09 23:53:43 <gavinandresen> too big for what?
1754 2011-01-09 23:53:48 <ArtForz> dunno, imo they're pretty small
1755 2011-01-09 23:53:53 <luke-jr> gavinandresen: real-world adoption
1756 2011-01-09 23:54:02 <ArtForz> how often do you want to give someone < $0.003 ?
1757 2011-01-09 23:54:13 <luke-jr> ArtForz: when there are over 21 million users, fairly often
1758 2011-01-09 23:54:30 <ArtForz> when there are 21 million users we'll change the limit
1759 2011-01-09 23:54:37 <luke-jr> :p
1760 2011-01-09 23:54:46 <gavinandresen> Hmm.  I'm pretty sure PayPal doesn't let me send $0.003 to somebody, and last time I checked PayPal fit the definition of "real world adoption"
1761 2011-01-09 23:54:56 <luke-jr> until then, I'm working in 0.01048576 minimums
1762 2011-01-09 23:54:57 <nanotube> gavinandresen: well consider that 1 btc is now .3+ usd, which is say... 9+ rubles. which means 1 bitcent is bigger than 1 kopeck. i'm sure there are other cheaper currencies, where 1 bitcent is larger than the smallest denomination.
1763 2011-01-09 23:54:58 <gavinandresen> (and I KNOW my bank won't allow sub-cent sends)
1764 2011-01-09 23:55:12 <luke-jr> gavinandresen: there's far more USD than 21mil
1765 2011-01-09 23:55:43 <Cusipzzz> agree...not an issue unless BTC hits 1:1 USD, then everyone can crib about it
1766 2011-01-09 23:56:00 <sipa> gavinandresen: but the problem is not that you're not able to send very small amounts to someone, the problem is that splitting small amounts in your own wallet may eventually lead to things that are very small
1767 2011-01-09 23:56:05 <nanotube> Cusipzzz: usd is not the only fiat currency out there :P
1768 2011-01-09 23:56:08 <luke-jr> if "everyone"  has to do something, "everyone" can just as easily adopt a new cryptocurrency :P
1769 2011-01-09 23:56:12 <gavinandresen> luke-jr:  I started a thread on the forums a while ago asking when we should "move the decimal points" ....
1770 2011-01-09 23:56:18 <ArtForz> and even then we'll probably wont care (yet)
1771 2011-01-09 23:56:26 <luke-jr> gavinandresen: I'm anti-decimal.
1772 2011-01-09 23:56:30 <nanotube> gavinandresen: and as you recall, i answered "just stop rounding right now"
1773 2011-01-09 23:56:32 <Cusipzzz> nanotube: agree, but .01usd is pretty worthless just about everywhere :p
1774 2011-01-09 23:56:33 <nanotube> :)
1775 2011-01-09 23:56:52 <gavinandresen> nanotube:   we can't ignore the transaction spam problem.  It won't just go away.
1776 2011-01-09 23:57:11 <luke-jr> gavinandresen: rounding != minimum
1777 2011-01-09 23:57:19 <gavinandresen> nanotube:  but the right answer might be "disallow very small transactions, but allow high-precision transactions that are greater than 0.01"
1778 2011-01-09 23:57:21 <luke-jr> 1.00000001 is not a problem
1779 2011-01-09 23:57:29 <ArtForz> yep
1780 2011-01-09 23:57:35 <ArtForz> I/O rounding is stupid
1781 2011-01-09 23:57:40 <gavinandresen> I think we might be in violent agreement.
1782 2011-01-09 23:57:43 <lolcat> When bitcoin gets 10 billion users won't every user need ALOT of bandwith?
1783 2011-01-09 23:57:45 <luke-jr> gavinandresen: 0.01048576 BTC = 1 ᵗTBC ☺
1784 2011-01-09 23:57:50 <Cusipzzz> agree w/that, still think it's a non-issue at this point
1785 2011-01-09 23:58:10 <nanotube> ;;google calc 1 phillipine peso in usd
1786 2011-01-09 23:58:11 <gribble> 1 Philippine peso = 0.0226 US dollars
1787 2011-01-09 23:58:30 <lolcat> If each person have 10 transactions a day, how much bandwith are we talking about?
1788 2011-01-09 23:58:36 <gavinandresen> Gotta go cook dinner, talk to y'all later
1789 2011-01-09 23:58:42 <nanotube> gavinandresen: exactly. i'm not saying that we should remove the <.01 fee requirement. just to allow more precision beyond, for the moment.
1790 2011-01-09 23:59:02 <luke-jr> nanotube: at least not yet
1791 2011-01-09 23:59:07 <ArtForz> yeah, people should be allowed to send 3.14159265 if they want to
1792 2011-01-09 23:59:09 <nanotube> luke-jr: right, not yet
1793 2011-01-09 23:59:14 <sipa> gavinandresen: if i'm mmining in a pool like slush'es, and i'm receiving money from him as soon as my balance there goes over 0.01 (which isn't the case for me, but maybe it is for some), i will be getting many tx outputs only slightly above 0.01
1794 2011-01-09 23:59:20 <luke-jr> minimum should be 0.00000256 in the future :P
1795 2011-01-09 23:59:34 <nanotube> sipa: i don't think slush sends subcent bits.
1796 2011-01-09 23:59:39 <sipa> nanotube: no he doesn't
1797 2011-01-09 23:59:40 <luke-jr> sipa: nope, unfortunately
1798 2011-01-09 23:59:57 <luke-jr> sipa: that's the circular balance slush scams
