  99 2011-04-13 01:21:59 <Lycurgus> it's a 12 tone calendar?

 133 2011-04-13 01:34:19 <luke-jr> CUDA is even more worthless

 223 2011-04-13 02:22:25 <phantomcircuit_> sgornick, there's like 4k nodes, of which about 1k are connectable
 224 2011-04-13 02:22:32 <Kiba> I think the map of bitcoin nodes

 247 2011-04-13 02:33:06 <Lycurgus> which can only lag the latter by so much

 263 2011-04-13 02:41:20 <Lycurgus> well it's lending, usury, whatever you want to call it
 264 2011-04-13 02:41:31 <Kiba> lending itself is not bad
 265 2011-04-13 02:41:37 <Lycurgus> no it isn't
 266 2011-04-13 02:41:49 <Lycurgus> it's just a service
 267 2011-04-13 02:41:59 <Lycurgus> in principle it's neutral
 268 2011-04-13 02:42:21 <Kiba> anyway
 269 2011-04-13 02:43:20 <phantomcircuit_> Lycurgus, it's neither lending nor usury
 270 2011-04-13 02:43:24 <Lycurgus> but the fundamental source of value is that people accept the money commodity as a generalization of value in exchange for things of real value
 271 2011-04-13 02:43:48 <Lycurgus> such as their labor power
 272 2011-04-13 02:44:20 <phantomcircuit_> and they do so because....?
 273 2011-04-13 02:44:21 <Lycurgus> phantomcircuit, lending is not lending?

 283 2011-04-13 02:48:50 <Lycurgus> just apply a contract structure for such a transaction to the existing mechanism
 284 2011-04-13 02:49:10 <Kiba> the risk is that rumors will go around that your bank is insovlent
 285 2011-04-13 02:49:15 <Kiba> which can lead to a bank run

 302 2011-04-13 02:58:38 <Kiba> if it were, than the difficulty of exchanging no longer become the chokepoint for adoption
 303 2011-04-13 02:58:43 <jgarzik> There is nothing fundamentally wrong with fractional reserve.  Almost every mutual fund out there could be considered fractional reserve (with the reserve being the 1% or so they keep on hand for redemptions).  Fractional reserve just means you handed your money to someone, who is investing it.
 304 2011-04-13 02:58:55 <jgarzik> Banks just need to come with a disclaimer "risky investment"
 305 2011-04-13 02:59:13 <Lycurgus> what's important is that participants accept the money commodity as a store and measure of value
 306 2011-04-13 03:01:36 <Lycurgus> once there are large numbers of users in different currency jurisdictions the transition can be precipitous
 307 2011-04-13 03:02:36 <Lycurgus> i would expect that extant finance capital is already looking at this though with a view to coopting it

 321 2011-04-13 03:12:54 <Lycurgus> so it's of the essence that there be a single system that no one owns
 322 2011-04-13 03:13:04 <noagendamarket> yep
 323 2011-04-13 03:13:23 <Lycurgus> hence no "bankcoins"
 324 2011-04-13 03:13:26 <noagendamarket> well
 325 2011-04-13 03:13:48 <noagendamarket> if they created a new genesis block and all the banks used it
 326 2011-04-13 03:13:49 <Kiba> everyone owns their own copies
 327 2011-04-13 03:13:52 <midnightmagic> it is almost certain that coopting it would either be denied, or would destroy the currency.
 328 2011-04-13 03:14:07 <midnightmagic> banks won't use a deflationary currency.
 329 2011-04-13 03:14:19 <noagendamarket> just saying

 335 2011-04-13 03:14:57 <Lycurgus> the general phenom is cryptocurrency, there could be a proliferation of networks with objective flat exchange between them
 336 2011-04-13 03:14:58 <midnightmagic> that would be a huge mistake.
 337 2011-04-13 03:15:17 <Kiba> huge mistake?
 338 2011-04-13 03:15:23 <midnightmagic> Lycurgus: that also wouldn't make much sense, because we all conceptually are quite aware of how hard it is to mine each one.
 339 2011-04-13 03:15:30 <Kiba> as a profit-oriented CEO, I would

 342 2011-04-13 03:16:16 <midnightmagic> perhaps over time, but all at once? you'll crash it.
 343 2011-04-13 03:16:34 <Lycurgus> i'm ignoring the details of the particular crypto setup and it's ancillary concepts such as "mining"
 344 2011-04-13 03:16:47 <Lycurgus> *its
 345 2011-04-13 03:17:20 <Kiba> I mean...I don't give a damn about controlling the people
 346 2011-04-13 03:17:20 <midnightmagic> then what do you mean by "flat exchange"?
 347 2011-04-13 03:17:23 <Kiba> I just want money!
 348 2011-04-13 03:17:29 <Lycurgus> that's irrelevant, the real value comes from the real world just as in existing money
 349 2011-04-13 03:17:41 <Lycurgus> s/existing/conventional general/
 350 2011-04-13 03:18:10 <midnightmagic> Kiba: those are public companies. you can't just spend $1mil in a public company without divulging what you're doing. and if you are a private investor, then you bubble the currency rather than grow it (as happened recently) and your value is recoupable for years.
 351 2011-04-13 03:18:32 <midnightmagic> is => isn't
 352 2011-04-13 03:18:52 <Kiba> whatever how I can invest 1 million dollars
 353 2011-04-13 03:19:03 <Kiba> without destroying the economy
 354 2011-04-13 03:19:03 <sacarlson> I was hoping to try a test bitcoin that had a fixed number of coins from start to finish with no growth that would be shares of an entity, how would that be done?
 355 2011-04-13 03:19:06 <midnightmagic> meanwhile, you could've put smaller investments into it over time and grown the currency as a currency, thus encouraging much more rapid growth, and made more.
 356 2011-04-13 03:20:04 <midnightmagic> sacarlson: let us know when you build the code, i'll help you test it, unless testing it requires I pay you money, in which case I won't.
 357 2011-04-13 03:20:12 <sacarlson> then the currency won't grow just the number of currency in this case would grow
 358 2011-04-13 03:20:54 <sacarlson> midnightmagic: I have now compiled the code or just the bitcoind part of it, and I'm looking at it now
 359 2011-04-13 03:21:17 <phantomcircuit> sacarlson, that's basically how bitcoin works after 2015 or is it 2016?
 360 2011-04-13 03:22:18 <sacarlson> phantomcircuit: yes but I want this to be fixed from start to finish,  why would you need to grow the currency in this case?
 361 2011-04-13 03:22:55 <phantomcircuit> sacarlson, what?
 362 2011-04-13 03:22:59 <phantomcircuit> there isn't a finish
 363 2011-04-13 03:23:06 <Lycurgus> Kiba, are you saying that placing a buy order for 1million$ at current BTC exchange rates would destroy bc?
 364 2011-04-13 03:23:16 <midnightmagic> Kiba: you make a 25% mining farm which adds enough mining infrastructure over time to ensure you always stay at 25%; you build infrastructure capable of handling bitcoins, and you get it in the hands of merchants. you supply direct currency exchange markets so merchants aren't frightened away. you use your mined coins as secret backing and you don't tell anyone you're mining. this necessitates being a private company.
 365 2011-04-13 03:24:24 <sacarlson> phantomcircuit: well in this case there could be a finish, when someone or a group buys all or a mojority of all the coins then they can decide to desoulve or liquidate the entity
 366 2011-04-13 03:24:27 <midnightmagic> Lycurgus: I'm saying it would hurt the BTC economy to disappear those coins and sit on $1mil. the biggest market (mtgox) doesn't do anywhere near those volumes, as far as I can tell.
 367 2011-04-13 03:24:51 <[Noodles]> sacarlson: how would you distribute the fixed number from the start? who owns them at start?
 368 2011-04-13 03:24:51 <Kiba> 40 K dollars on a good day..
 369 2011-04-13 03:25:10 <midnightmagic> well we don't know what the dark pool stuff does.
 370 2011-04-13 03:25:13 <[Noodles]> you own them all and everyopne that comes after you has to buy from you?
 371 2011-04-13 03:25:17 <midnightmagic> who knows the limits there..
 372 2011-04-13 03:25:40 <midnightmagic> [Noodles]: that doesn't make any sense, because miners still mine.
 373 2011-04-13 03:25:56 <[Noodles]> huh?
 374 2011-04-13 03:25:57 <sacarlson> [Noodles]: you would sell them for other coins or currency from the start
 375 2011-04-13 03:26:11 <[Noodles]> miners will still have to mine when all 21m are in circulation
 376 2011-04-13 03:26:21 <[Noodles]> so its not a matter of mining at all
 377 2011-04-13 03:26:24 <luke-jr> buy buy buy
 378 2011-04-13 03:26:30 <midnightmagic> ah, you're talking about distant future then.
 379 2011-04-13 03:26:44 <[Noodles]> sacarlson: i got that, but who is "you"?
 380 2011-04-13 03:26:52 <Lycurgus> yeah, you shouldn't have to "mine" to attach value from the real world to the currency
 381 2011-04-13 03:26:54 <midnightmagic> [Noodles]: ah, you're not even talking to me are you. :)
 382 2011-04-13 03:27:10 <midnightmagic> Lycurgus: that's not the purpose of mining.
 383 2011-04-13 03:27:29 <midnightmagic> Mining is the backbone of the security of the currency.
 384 2011-04-13 03:27:30 <sacarlson> [Noodles]: remind you it starts from something not nothing,  someone invest in buying a thing say 1 once of gold and says that now sell parts of this 1 onunce of gold as parts in the form of gbitcoins
 385 2011-04-13 03:27:46 <Lycurgus> but it's also necessary to attach value?
 386 2011-04-13 03:27:53 <luke-jr> …
 387 2011-04-13 03:28:00 <luke-jr> without mining, nobody can transfer coins
 388 2011-04-13 03:28:13 <luke-jr> without significantly high mining, anyone can take over the network
 389 2011-04-13 03:28:31 <Lycurgus> understood
 390 2011-04-13 03:28:43 <sacarlson> midnightmagic: see that's what I didn't understand mining is the backbone of the security of the currency
 391 2011-04-13 03:28:52 <Lycurgus> but that shouild be distinct from the function of general money
 392 2011-04-13 03:29:04 <midnightmagic> how so?
 393 2011-04-13 03:29:33 <midnightmagic> it's how the cryptography allows for the currency to begin with. it's intrinsically linked. one doesn't exist without the other.
 394 2011-04-13 03:29:48 <luke-jr> if you can't spend it, it can't function as money
 395 2011-04-13 03:29:53 <Lycurgus> with general money, it's of the essence that if I have of thing of arbitrary value, I can give a money price for it
 396 2011-04-13 03:29:59 <luke-jr> if someone can spend it twice, it functions poorly
 397 2011-04-13 03:30:02 <Lycurgus> that's why it's called the price system
 398 2011-04-13 03:30:14 <Kiba> mining enable that "price system"
 399 2011-04-13 03:30:17 <luke-jr> Lycurgus: only if you can transfer it to someone else
 400 2011-04-13 03:30:25 <luke-jr> if you can't transfer ownership, you can't sell it
 401 2011-04-13 03:30:30 <luke-jr> thus, no value
 402 2011-04-13 03:30:31 <midnightmagic> Lycurgus: right, go on.
 403 2011-04-13 03:30:53 <sacarlson> luke-jr I didn't relise that part,  so my Idea is somewhat trashed then I think,  otherwise how could you desolve a currency that is being mined?

 415 2011-04-13 03:34:06 <Kiba> the market don wanna touch .90
 416 2011-04-13 03:34:09 <Kiba> it's taboo
 417 2011-04-13 03:34:46 <midnightmagic> it's the stopper people putting the chunky buy/sells in the open where people can see them.
 418 2011-04-13 03:34:54 <Kiba> so we're at 700 GH/s
 419 2011-04-13 03:36:27 <midnightmagic> 652 @ 91099.83582564
 420 2011-04-13 03:36:47 <midnightmagic> that's not really that much computing power.
 421 2011-04-13 03:38:02 <Kiba> well, it's a kinda a supercomputer I guess

 423 2011-04-13 03:39:07 <midnightmagic> kiba: it's about the equivalent of 1086x5970s..
 424 2011-04-13 03:39:19 wolfspraul has joined
 425 2011-04-13 03:39:57 <Kiba> that's a lot of 5970s though
 426 2011-04-13 03:40:04 <midnightmagic> if 1100 people were all mining with one 5970, that's not very many people. say on average there are 4 per person. that's only 271. or, 8: 135. That's a small handful. :(
 427 2011-04-13 03:40:58 <Kiba> we're a really small community
 428 2011-04-13 03:41:07 <midnightmagic> that to me is fragility.
 429 2011-04-13 03:41:07 <sacarlson> midnightmagic: well there are a total of 2900 people on the total network that I can see so what percent of those are mining?
 430 2011-04-13 03:41:50 <midnightmagic> if there are on average 4 cards per miner, then that's 270 miners. total number of people in the network is almost irrelevant. but, 270/2900 = 9.3%

 432 2011-04-13 03:41:51 <Kiba> the bitcoin creature is compelling us to buy 5970s
 433 2011-04-13 03:42:06 <Kiba> and compelling us to spread its memes

 435 2011-04-13 03:42:18 toffoo has quit (Client Quit)
 436 2011-04-13 03:42:45 <midnightmagic> so, maybe 1 in 10 "nodes" is mining at 5970 rates, but that's not even accurate because not everyone mines with 5970s.
 437 2011-04-13 03:43:06 <midnightmagic> there's not a lot of point in speculating about that.
 438 2011-04-13 03:43:55 <Kiba> so
 439 2011-04-13 03:43:58 <Kiba> the economy is small
 440 2011-04-13 03:44:00 <Kiba> what else is new?
 441 2011-04-13 03:44:08 toffoo has joined
 442 2011-04-13 03:44:39 <sacarlson> seems the weakness I see in bitcoins is there is that it depends on a single irc chanel, it that server failed would bitcoins still function?
 443 2011-04-13 03:44:47 <noagendamarket> yes
 444 2011-04-13 03:45:18 <noagendamarket> the irc just lets it find nodes quicker
 445 2011-04-13 03:45:18 <midnightmagic> it's pretty fragile. mtgox pricing isn't high enough to grow it fast enough. prices won't increase until more people use it. people won't use it until we convince them to. work harder at convincing people to use bitcoins in legal, reputable endeavours. try to convince people not to use it for shady idiotic gambling/money laundering schemes by scaring them about the damage it does to the currency as a whole.
 446 2011-04-13 03:45:27 <midnightmagic> sacarlson: sure.
 447 2011-04-13 03:45:59 <jgarzik> sacarlson: no, that's not a weakness
 448 2011-04-13 03:46:09 <jgarzik> sacarlson: bitcoin has plenty of weaknesses, but IRC is not one of them
 449 2011-04-13 03:46:23 <Kiba> I thought one gal was scared by heroin dealing
 450 2011-04-13 03:46:29 <Kiba> turns out she thought it was very novel
 451 2011-04-13 03:46:36 <Kiba> and I misintrepret what she said in the tweet
 452 2011-04-13 03:46:44 <midnightmagic> or, better, create a better market than mtgox..
 453 2011-04-13 03:47:06 <nanotube> noagendamarket: haha fwiw, i find the client actually gets connections faster when i run it with -noirc
 454 2011-04-13 03:47:10 <midnightmagic> i mean right now, the graphing and markets in EVE:Online are better, and that's just some lame game.
 455 2011-04-13 03:47:21 <nanotube> so s/find nodes quicker/find more nodes/ maybe :)

 459 2011-04-13 03:48:32 <Kiba> keep the momentum growing and we will get where we want to go
 460 2011-04-13 03:48:34 <midnightmagic> just that i think it could be done better.

 466 2011-04-13 03:49:38 <nanotube> and add other game currencies too. L$, WoW, etc.
 467 2011-04-13 03:49:51 <nanotube> midnightmagic: hasn't stopped wow gold trading. :)
 468 2011-04-13 03:50:23 <Kiba> they could ban accounts all they want...
 469 2011-04-13 03:50:41 <midnightmagic> nanotube: CCP is actively disincentivizing it with mechanisms that have stripped most of the value away from the gold farmers' old heydays.
 470 2011-04-13 03:51:01 <nanotube> midnightmagic: mmm, it's almost like they /want/ to kill their game
 471 2011-04-13 03:51:04 <nanotube> heh
 472 2011-04-13 03:51:30 <Kiba> all the MMOs have inflationary policies..
 473 2011-04-13 03:51:37 <midnightmagic> nanotube: no, they just know that time-in-game is worth more to the game's inherent value than money-to-3rd-parties. :)

 476 2011-04-13 03:52:03 <midnightmagic> Kiba: as far as I know, CCP is the only one with an actual, full-time economist who can effect change.
 477 2011-04-13 03:52:23 * nanotube has never played it, so really is just making snarky comments.
 478 2011-04-13 03:52:26 <midnightmagic> Kiba: government tax evasion?
 479 2011-04-13 03:52:31 <midnightmagic> oh. :)
 480 2011-04-13 03:53:01 <Kiba> it would be lulz if everyone use bitcoin rather than the game's currency
 481 2011-04-13 03:53:53 <midnightmagic> nanotube: it's a fun game, and it's incredible to see them paying attention to their economist.. very awesome stuff. and they stripped isk of their 3rd-party worth by making it incredibly risky to buy isk from a farmer (they nab people months after the fact just for owning it) and by selling plex themselves for a reasonable price.
 482 2011-04-13 03:54:40 <nanotube> aha! now the motive comes out. *selling plex themselves*
 483 2011-04-13 03:54:41 <nanotube> :)
 484 2011-04-13 03:54:43 <Kiba> so, do people still use ISK?
 485 2011-04-13 03:54:43 <midnightmagic> they refuse to outright kill accounts for it, and are preferring to use economic and technical means to put gold farmers out of business.
 486 2011-04-13 03:54:58 <jgarzik> I think bitcoin's value will be too variable for mainstream MMOs to want to use it
 487 2011-04-13 03:55:08 <midnightmagic> nanotube: well it's pretty irritating to find someone else monetizing the game you slaved over for a decade. :)

 490 2011-04-13 03:55:34 * Kiba thinks of way to monentize his tetris game somehow
 491 2011-04-13 03:55:36 <nanotube> midnightmagic: well presumably, the gold farmers pay for game access?
 492 2011-04-13 03:55:36 <midnightmagic> i'd be irritated.
 493 2011-04-13 03:55:49 <witten> MMOs have no incentive to use a distributed currency like bitcoin when they can use their own fiat currency that they can mint at will
 494 2011-04-13 03:56:46 <Blitzboom> they do, if the creator is a bitcoin fan
 495 2011-04-13 03:56:47 <midnightmagic> nanotube: yeah, but as they've shown, in a game where the prices are set by the players themselves, gold farming puts isk into a massive inflationary bubble that kills off large numbers of new subscribers.
 496 2011-04-13 03:58:14 <midnightmagic> isk stability is dependent on a functioning market. by selling isk for less than a real player could make it for (say missioning) then nobody missions, nobody mines, isk is worthless, and people quit who can't afford to buy, but can afford to spend time.
 497 2011-04-13 03:58:44 <nanotube> midnightmagic: well, they just need to make it hard enough to make that it's not economical for gold farmers to sell it for cheap.
 498 2011-04-13 03:59:20 <Kiba> I think an MMO don't use their own fiat currency
 499 2011-04-13 03:59:24 <midnightmagic> nanotube: or just plain uneconomical. and that's what they're doing.
 500 2011-04-13 03:59:29 <Kiba> instead letting the free market works to select a currency
 501 2011-04-13 03:59:47 <nanotube> midnightmagic: anyway, i'm sure it's an interesting system :)
 502 2011-04-13 04:00:06 <midnightmagic> "Withdraw via Liberty Reserve is currently offline. Please try again tomorrow. Sorry for the inconvenience."  <-- this happens too often at MtGox.
 503 2011-04-13 04:00:21 <Kiba> Liberty Reserve sucks?
 504 2011-04-13 04:00:22 <midnightmagic> nanotube: they have very pretty graphs. :)
 505 2011-04-13 04:00:56 <nanotube> midnightmagic: heh maybe you should consider cloning them for bitcoin :)
 506 2011-04-13 04:01:09 <Kiba> a massive game like EVE:Online?
 507 2011-04-13 04:01:12 <Kiba> that's crazy
 508 2011-04-13 04:01:15 <jgarzik> Kiba: charge people 1 BTC to mess with another person's Tetris game.  Say 1 BTC for jgarzik to rotate a block on Kiba's game.  2 BTC to deduct points from Kiba's game.  3 BTC for Kiba to retaliate against jgarzik, and deduct points from his Tetris high score.
 509 2011-04-13 04:01:20 <jgarzik> call it Tetris Wars
 510 2011-04-13 04:01:22 <midnightmagic> Kiba: that's MtGox. LR is working just fine.
 511 2011-04-13 04:01:47 <midnightmagic> nanotube: I often think about exactly that. :)
 512 2011-04-13 04:02:17 <Kiba> well, it would be great if somebody pledge some bitcoin for my game

 519 2011-04-13 04:04:03 <Kiba> jgarzik: I was thinking of mining system
 520 2011-04-13 04:04:06 <Kiba> err
 521 2011-04-13 04:04:10 <Kiba> items system
 522 2011-04-13 04:04:15 <witten> midnightmagic: that thought has occurred to multiple people :)
 523 2011-04-13 04:04:20 <midnightmagic> nanotube: withdrawal is still primarily LR isn't it?
 524 2011-04-13 04:04:26 <Kiba> you mine tehm during your tetris session
 525 2011-04-13 04:04:32 <midnightmagic> i see he does euro bank wires too..
 526 2011-04-13 04:04:48 <Kiba> and you get to customize your item belt with items that you like
 527 2011-04-13 04:05:00 <Kiba> but sometime you get items you don't like
 528 2011-04-13 04:05:07 <Kiba> so you trade these items with other tetris players
 529 2011-04-13 04:05:09 <midnightmagic> witten: :)
 530 2011-04-13 04:05:15 <nanotube> yep, he does wd via other methods too, now. though i guess clearly, if it often happens that he's out of LR, more LR is going out than coming in.
 531 2011-04-13 04:06:11 * MagicalTux confirm, LR sucks
 532 2011-04-13 04:06:26 <nanotube> MagicalTux: \o/
 533 2011-04-13 04:06:35 <Kiba> we need moar method for transfer!
 534 2011-04-13 04:06:44 <nanotube> once you get the bank stuff working, you could always just dump lr.
 535 2011-04-13 04:06:46 <Kiba> maybe you could sell mtgox gift cards

 539 2011-04-13 04:07:29 <MagicalTux> Kiba, I have plans to allow mtgox users to transform parts of their balance into special codes which could be then exchanged (could even be redeemed via api for merchants)
 540 2011-04-13 04:07:30 <Kiba> it seem like you're only dealing with USD
 541 2011-04-13 04:07:37 <MagicalTux> Kiba, yes, it's planned too, alongside margin trading
 542 2011-04-13 04:07:57 <jgarzik> MagicalTux: cool.  Jed talked about that a long time ago.

 544 2011-04-13 04:08:16 <MagicalTux> I'm working on the new mtgox version almost fulltime now (should have done that earlier but got caught up between a earthquake, a tsunami and a nuclear power plant)

 561 2011-04-13 04:10:53 <Kiba> about the nuclear incident in Japan

 569 2011-04-13 04:12:09 <tcatm> nanotube: would they be useful e.g. for websites (as they might return None)?

 571 2011-04-13 04:12:25 <MagicalTux> Kiba, you can privmsg me for access details

 573 2011-04-13 04:12:32 <LightRider> Is there a way to maintain two different bitcoin wallets on one machine?

 575 2011-04-13 04:13:07 <midnightmagic> MagicalTux: it's incredible the fear involved.. the tsunami wave was heading here (BC, Canada) and you should've seen the people racing up and down the highway..
 576 2011-04-13 04:13:08 <LightRider> For example, if I wanted to maintain my personal wallet for everyday affairs, but also have access to an organization's account when necessary?
 577 2011-04-13 04:13:22 <witten> LightRider: you could use -datadir
 578 2011-04-13 04:13:33 <witten> LightRider: but that's for the whole data directory and not just the wallet
 579 2011-04-13 04:13:36 <midnightmagic> LightRider: you would have to start/restart bitcoind to switch wallets, as witten implies.
 580 2011-04-13 04:14:01 <LightRider> Could I have two instances, each using their own directory?
 581 2011-04-13 04:14:41 <LightRider> simultaneously I mean
 582 2011-04-13 04:14:48 <midnightmagic> LightRider: I think there's something with the port you'd need to tweak.
 583 2011-04-13 04:15:01 <midnightmagic> LightRider: if you have two machines, then yes, definitely. I do that.
 584 2011-04-13 04:15:03 <LightRider> ah yes, of course
 585 2011-04-13 04:15:21 <jgarzik> MagicalTux: That is interesting...  I was thinking about going through OpenSRS.  Does your domain API permit purchases via bitcoins?
 586 2011-04-13 04:15:32 <MagicalTux> jgarzik, actually, it does
 587 2011-04-13 04:15:36 <LightRider> I want to start accepting bitcoin donations for my organization, but I am wary of the accounting
 588 2011-04-13 04:15:44 <jgarzik> MagicalTux: yum :)
 589 2011-04-13 04:16:03 <MagicalTux> bitcoin pricings might not be stable, however~
 590 2011-04-13 04:16:05 <Kiba> your...Venus organization where all you do is make video about tech instead of doing it, LightRider?
 591 2011-04-13 04:16:05 <nanotube> tcatm: possibly maybe? guess if some site wants more stability in the indexed bitcoin prices.
 592 2011-04-13 04:16:14 <MagicalTux> (ie. depends on current rates)
 593 2011-04-13 04:16:14 <witten> LightRider: Quickbook doesn't suport bitcoins? :)
 594 2011-04-13 04:16:23 <nanotube> they could use the weighted avg prices over the past $period
 595 2011-04-13 04:16:33 <sacarlson> tcatm: looks good to me I bookmarked it
 596 2011-04-13 04:16:44 <LightRider> more specifically, I don't want donations to the organization spill over into my personal account
 597 2011-04-13 04:17:19 <midnightmagic> LightRider: bitcoind listaccounts  <-- will let you handle multiple named accounts. it's not hard to keep things separate.
 598 2011-04-13 04:17:29 <jgarzik> MagicalTux: how are purchases accomplished?  through domainCreate ?
 599 2011-04-13 04:17:32 <midnightmagic> bitcoind getnewaddress [accountname]  and so on.
 600 2011-04-13 04:17:39 <MagicalTux> jgarzik, yep

 607 2011-04-13 04:18:15 <MagicalTux> tcatm, change the port :D
 608 2011-04-13 04:18:25 <noagendamarket> Kiba you could sell ads on the tetris blocks :)

 711 2011-04-13 05:22:02 <sacarlson> Is there a way to send a signed document that proves you are now holding a certain number of bitcoin?  If not what could posibly be created that could?
 712 2011-04-13 05:22:48 <nanotube> sacarlson: well, you could extract the private key associated with the address holding the coins, and use it to create arbitrary signed messages.
 713 2011-04-13 05:22:56 <nanotube> it's not built into the default client though.
 714 2011-04-13 05:23:04 <nanotube> but iirc there was some code posted on the forums to extract keys, etc.

 719 2011-04-13 05:25:20 <nanotube> the public key would be used to verify :)

 742 2011-04-13 05:30:48 <sacarlson> nanotube: are the tools already available to do such a thing?
 743 2011-04-13 05:30:49 <nanotube> sacarlson: well, you'd need to extract the key, then use openssl libs to create a signature, and send it along with the public key to your receiver.

 747 2011-04-13 05:31:44 <an20> for poclbm.py, what should your askrate be if you are solo mining?

 751 2011-04-13 05:33:44 <nanotube> so you have to use the openssl libs to play with those

 853 2011-04-13 06:42:30 <justmoon> my node also has 1000 as it's limit, but only 200 or so actual connections
 854 2011-04-13 06:43:14 <jgarzik> justmoon: yes -- and this is _not_ recommended behavior for most clients.  the network can tolerate a few people hacking their clients, but we should not go around recommending this change for all.
 855 2011-04-13 06:43:37 <genjix> why not?
 856 2011-04-13 06:44:06 <justmoon> aren't highly connected nodes good for the network (assuming they're running on high-bandwidth, low latency machines with the latest bitcoin version)?
 857 2011-04-13 06:44:29 <justmoon> obviously I agree you shouldn't recommend that setting to normal users

 861 2011-04-13 06:45:41 <justmoon> oh wait, you're talking about OUTGOING connections
 862 2011-04-13 06:45:55 <justmoon> I have 8 outgoing connections, the 200 is all incoming connections
 863 2011-04-13 06:46:13 <lfm> people running ddos attacks on themselves? they ask for 500 connects and then wonder why their youtube is slow
 864 2011-04-13 06:46:21 <justmoon> yeah I can see how too many people with too many outgoing conns would be bad :D
 865 2011-04-13 06:46:54 <justmoon> sorry guys, I've just pulled an all-nighter - reading comprehension levels critically low
 866 2011-04-13 06:47:22 <lfm> doesnt matter what direction really
 867 2011-04-13 06:47:45 <justmoon> lfm: I think lots of outgoing are bad because clients will accept a limited number of incoming conns
 868 2011-04-13 06:47:59 <justmoon> so you could theoretically block them all - that's an attack vector I believe
 869 2011-04-13 06:48:11 <theorbtwo> Surely, your number of maximum total connections should be set such that you won't be flooded.
 870 2011-04-13 06:49:11 <justmoon> theorbtwo: ah, you're right, that's a danger with accepting too many connections
 871 2011-04-13 06:49:29 <ArtForz> hrrrm.... they're just asking to be used in a multiplier attack to DoS themselves
 872 2011-04-13 06:49:57 <justmoon> ArtForz: if the official client can be used in a multiplier attack wouldn't we be screwed anyways?
 873 2011-04-13 06:50:08 <ArtForz> well, officiel client with 1000 connections, yes
 874 2011-04-13 06:50:28 <ArtForz> send one 4kB tx, node relays it to 1000 peers
 875 2011-04-13 06:50:31 <ArtForz> "whoops"
 876 2011-04-13 06:51:00 <justmoon> well, if it relays it that means it's valid right? so it would spread exponentially in a p2p network anyway
 877 2011-04-13 06:51:16 <ArtForz> yes
 878 2011-04-13 06:51:34 <ArtForz> but by a single node with shitloads of connections seeing that TX first will pretty much DoS itself

 894 2011-04-13 06:54:58 <ArtForz> no peers have it = it relays to everyone

 897 2011-04-13 06:57:29 <ArtForz> so even simple 0.01-chained spam would work
 898 2011-04-13 06:58:51 <lfm> it doesnt matter if the connection was started as outgoing or incoming tho, it will send new tx out on all of them

 902 2011-04-13 06:59:36 <justmoon> my takeaway from all this is that the overall connection limit should be chosen based on the bandwidth you have available

 926 2011-04-13 07:29:00 <gjs278> think of it this way
 927 2011-04-13 07:29:08 <gjs278> their firefox profile has all of their saved passwords in it
 928 2011-04-13 07:29:09 <cosurgi> if they lose their money due to virus, they will blame me.
 929 2011-04-13 07:29:11 <gjs278> for their bank
 930 2011-04-13 07:29:12 <gjs278> email
 931 2011-04-13 07:29:14 <gjs278> everything
 932 2011-04-13 07:29:18 <gjs278> and it's not encrypted
 933 2011-04-13 07:29:41 <lfm> and if they lose their password they will blame us too
 934 2011-04-13 07:29:49 <gjs278> it's true
 935 2011-04-13 07:30:16 <gjs278> I wouldn't worry about it though, hardly anyone uses bitcoins and I don't think it's really that big of a target right now
 936 2011-04-13 07:30:34 <gjs278> compared to just trying to bilk actual money out of people with that scammy adware crap
 937 2011-04-13 07:30:45 <cosurgi> "hardly anyone" is not an argument. It is for everyone
 938 2011-04-13 07:30:47 <purplezky> that's why you should recommend something like mybitcoin.com, because they don't backup their local wallet anyhow
 939 2011-04-13 07:31:04 <cosurgi> hm, maybe that's a solution.
 940 2011-04-13 07:31:17 <gjs278> cosurgi nobody uses bitcoins
 941 2011-04-13 07:31:22 <cosurgi> who owns mybitcoin.com ?
 942 2011-04-13 07:31:31 <gjs278> walk down the street and ask everyone their bitcoin address
 943 2011-04-13 07:32:00 <purplezky> gjs278 eventelly i foresee a sort of dns service for bitcoin addresses
 944 2011-04-13 07:32:06 <purplezky> eventually
 945 2011-04-13 07:32:10 <gjs278> yeah
 946 2011-04-13 07:32:36 <purplezky> i already added token to bitcoinaddress mappings in my smsbitcoins.com
 947 2011-04-13 07:32:54 <purplezky> but maybe i need to make a bitcointoken service
 948 2011-04-13 07:33:47 <purplezky> but i guess it would be of no use unless support for it would be embedded in bitcoind
 949 2011-04-13 07:33:55 <lfm> gjs278: walk down the street and ask random people if they have their own tv show, that means there is no TV
 950 2011-04-13 07:34:02 <gjs278> lol
 951 2011-04-13 07:34:09 <gjs278> if they don't have a bitcoin address they don't use bitcoins
 952 2011-04-13 07:34:23 <lfm> doesnt mean no one does
 953 2011-04-13 07:34:31 <gjs278> a better analogy would be walking down the street and asking them if they have a tv
 954 2011-04-13 07:34:49 <cosurgi> I don''t
 955 2011-04-13 07:34:55 <gjs278> have you heard of a tv
 956 2011-04-13 07:35:00 <cosurgi> people without TV use bitcoins.
 957 2011-04-13 07:35:04 <gjs278> that's it
 958 2011-04-13 07:35:06 <lfm> if only one person in the whole universe used btc thats more than none
 959 2011-04-13 07:35:11 <gjs278> if you own a tv you're not allowed to use it
 960 2011-04-13 07:35:12 <gjs278> yeah
 961 2011-04-13 07:35:23 <gjs278> you know what I meant
 962 2011-04-13 07:35:25 <gjs278> don't be a retard
 963 2011-04-13 07:35:52 <lfm> and you knwo you're wrong so you dont be retarded
 964 2011-04-13 07:35:58 <gjs278> hardly anyone
 965 2011-04-13 07:36:00 <gjs278> uses them
 966 2011-04-13 07:36:01 <gjs278> is that better
 967 2011-04-13 07:36:03 <cosurgi> go and buy a book with BTC, you have 100 000 titles to pick from.
 968 2011-04-13 07:36:03 <gjs278> you stupid prick
 969 2011-04-13 07:36:56 <lfm> ok so hardly anyone uses bitcoin, so that means those that do use it should be exposed to theft?
 970 2011-04-13 07:37:02 <gjs278> they're not
 971 2011-04-13 07:37:05 Spenvo has joined
 972 2011-04-13 07:37:05 <purplezky> on a more serious note, has any of the bitcoin forks added support for bitcoinaddress "dns names"
 973 2011-04-13 07:37:22 <purplezky> or would this be an add-on i can make
 974 2011-04-13 07:37:28 <gjs278> who here has had their wallet stolen by a virus
 975 2011-04-13 07:37:49 <cosurgi> Blue* guy.
 976 2011-04-13 07:37:58 <lfm> that was a trojan
 977 2011-04-13 07:38:00 <cosurgi> he isn't here now
 978 2011-04-13 07:38:02 <Blitzboom> PARITY
 979 2011-04-13 07:38:10 <cosurgi> oh, that was Blitzboom ?
 980 2011-04-13 07:38:14 <cosurgi> I never remember
 981 2011-04-13 07:38:24 <purplezky> whoa 1 BTC=1 bitcoin
 982 2011-04-13 07:38:38 <cosurgi> who let those guys in here?
 983 2011-04-13 07:39:02 <lfm> purplezky: revelation?
 984 2011-04-13 07:39:07 <cosurgi> too many people are using bitcoins, and our channels is flooded with noobs.
 985 2011-04-13 07:39:42 <lfm> and retards like me
 986 2011-04-13 07:39:46 <gjs278> it jumped a lot in the last half hour
 987 2011-04-13 07:39:51 <cosurgi> anyway, we still need a wallet encryption. Even the stupidest encryption
 988 2011-04-13 07:39:55 <gjs278> price now is 96
 989 2011-04-13 07:40:17 <gjs278> ok
 990 2011-04-13 07:40:20 <gjs278> install gpg
 991 2011-04-13 07:40:26 <gjs278> encrypt the wallet
 992 2011-04-13 07:40:37 <purplezky> lfm: revelation about parity or implementing bitcoin named addresses ?
 993 2011-04-13 07:40:43 <gjs278> when you open the program, unencrypt it for a few minutes, and then encrypt it back when you're done
 994 2011-04-13 07:41:07 <gjs278> that's essentially all stupid encryption would do
 995 2011-04-13 07:41:12 <cosurgi> I'm doing this. But they have windows. That stupid os.
 996 2011-04-13 07:41:13 <lfm> <purplezky> whoa 1 BTC=1 bitcoin
 997 2011-04-13 07:41:15 <sacarlson> cosurgi: there are many encryption packages to use to encrypt and decrypt files like pgp gpg that can be used to keep your walet.dat file safe
 998 2011-04-13 07:41:19 genjix has quit (Ping timeout: 264 seconds)
 999 2011-04-13 07:41:32 <gjs278> there are gpg guis for windows that let you do just simple password
1000 2011-04-13 07:41:38 <gjs278> no keys or anything complicated like that
1001 2011-04-13 07:41:38 <cosurgi> I'm using encrypted loopback device. They can't
1002 2011-04-13 07:42:16 <lfm> and thumb drives let you keep stuff on them  passworded
1003 2011-04-13 07:42:18 <purplezky> gjs278: use truecrypt, create an encrypted partition, store your wallet in it
1004 2011-04-13 07:42:18 <cosurgi> besides I didn't use windows for 14 years, so I have no idea if there is anything fs-level that gives encryption. And that would be too complex for them anyway.
1005 2011-04-13 07:42:22 <gjs278> that's true
1006 2011-04-13 07:42:28 <gjs278> but installing truecrypt just for your wallet.dat
1007 2011-04-13 07:42:30 <gjs278> is a little overkill
1008 2011-04-13 07:42:49 <sacarlson> cosurgi: I setup a gpg encyption mechinism that works without user having to know the password that get's a password from the net that can be turned on and off, if your device is stolen if you don't want to remember the password
1009 2011-04-13 07:42:56 <gjs278> cosurgi if there was a program that would just encrypt the wallet.dat with a password, would they use it
1010 2011-04-13 07:43:16 <gjs278> it's not part of bitcoin itself though
1011 2011-04-13 07:43:34 <gjs278> it's just a dialog with a file select and a encrypt/decrypt option
1012 2011-04-13 07:43:39 <lfm> like the thumb drive
1013 2011-04-13 07:43:44 <sacarlson> cosurgi: I don't use windows I us ubuntu
1014 2011-04-13 07:43:46 <gjs278> yep
1015 2011-04-13 07:44:18 <lfm> theres lots of linux utilities and stuff for encrypting files too
1016 2011-04-13 07:45:45 <sacarlson> lfm: yes free good ones including gpg
1017 2011-04-13 07:46:02 <purplezky> they don't do backups, so i don't see them doing encryption. All banks use encryption devices external to a banking application, maybe we need a service like the yubikey, where a usb device generates a OneTimePass to access a wallet

1019 2011-04-13 07:47:27 <sacarlson> purplezky: you can setup on ubuntu to have a partition ecrypted using the key from a usb so you could only access your wallet when the usb keys is pluged in
1020 2011-04-13 07:48:18 <gjs278> you should always setup a backup password on that though
1021 2011-04-13 07:48:26 <gjs278> otherwise if you use the flash drive you're screwed
1022 2011-04-13 07:48:30 <gjs278> lose*
1023 2011-04-13 07:48:31 <sacarlson> purplezky: the backup could still be done even when the partition was encrypted

1026 2011-04-13 07:49:16 <sacarlson> gjs278: I agree you keep a backup of the key offline to create a new key if the usb key fails
1027 2011-04-13 07:49:32 <purplezky> i was thinking more along the way of cloud based wallets with automated backup, encrypted with a two factor usb encryption devicce in possession of the wallet owner only
1028 2011-04-13 07:50:23 <sacarlson> purplezky: on ubuntu we have ubuntuone that is cloud based that you could use to store an encrypted walet
1029 2011-04-13 07:50:25 <gjs278> mtgox is selling coins at 96 cents right now

1067 2011-04-13 08:27:05 <lfm> just 32 bit numbers ya
1068 2011-04-13 08:27:23 <limpingBobby_> and they represent peers currently connected?

1070 2011-04-13 08:27:36 <lfm> so ipv4 addresses, ipv6 isnt supported
1071 2011-04-13 08:27:51 <limpingBobby_> ok
1072 2011-04-13 08:28:14 <lfm> limp they are nodes which al least at one time were known good and to accept incomming connects
1073 2011-04-13 08:29:01 <limpingBobby_> so they are hardcoded ip addrs of peers that were working at the time of "coding"
1074 2011-04-13 08:29:14 <limpingBobby_> ?
1075 2011-04-13 08:29:15 <lfm> thats the idea ya

1093 2011-04-13 08:52:28 <topi`> now I just need more arm cores! :D
1094 2011-04-13 08:53:02 <Diablo-D3> erm
1095 2011-04-13 08:53:11 <Diablo-D3> except radeon 5xxx are around 2 mhash/s/watt
1096 2011-04-13 08:53:21 <Diablo-D3> and art's magic chips are bove 4
1097 2011-04-13 08:53:22 <krytzz> topi`: yes
1098 2011-04-13 08:53:23 <Diablo-D3> *above
1099 2011-04-13 08:53:40 <topi`> indeed, but ARM core is publically licenseable, so it is "better" technology than Radeon cores ;)
1100 2011-04-13 08:54:07 <topi`> so I can build (if I am good enough) a chip with 64 ARM cores, and pay licenses to ARM inc :)
1101 2011-04-13 08:54:25 <lfm> topi not the sort of "better" you can bank on tho
1102 2011-04-13 08:54:35 <Diablo-D3> 64 arm cores?
1103 2011-04-13 08:54:37 <Diablo-D3> problem is
1104 2011-04-13 08:54:38 <topi`> lfm: "better" is fairly subjective a word :)
1105 2011-04-13 08:54:41 <Diablo-D3> its still a fraction of the speed of a 5970
1106 2011-04-13 08:54:54 <Diablo-D3> at a much larger fab size since you cant afford 45nm manuf
1107 2011-04-13 08:54:55 <Diablo-D3> NOW
1108 2011-04-13 08:54:55 <topi`> Diablo-D3: might be, but won't consume as much power :)
1109 2011-04-13 08:54:59 <Diablo-D3> if I was building a video card
1110 2011-04-13 08:55:09 <Diablo-D3> having a chip with like 256 arm cores on it
1111 2011-04-13 08:55:10 <Diablo-D3> would be lol
1112 2011-04-13 08:55:19 <topi`> I don't want a video card, I want a SMP system.
1113 2011-04-13 08:55:21 <krytzz> topi`: including NEON or not?
1114 2011-04-13 08:55:22 <Diablo-D3> since, essentially, it'd be forever compatible with all future specs
1115 2011-04-13 08:55:26 <Diablo-D3> since it'd all be driver driven
1116 2011-04-13 08:55:27 <topi`> ARM is a non-specialized CPU core.
1117 2011-04-13 08:55:34 <topi`> so you build servers, desktops etc with it.
1118 2011-04-13 08:55:40 <Diablo-D3> topi`: not true.
1119 2011-04-13 08:55:52 <Diablo-D3> the specialization is just more subtle.
1120 2011-04-13 08:55:56 <topi`> krytzz: I am betting to get 4x the speed of the 'C' algo with a properly optimized NEON code.
1121 2011-04-13 08:56:32 <topi`> Diablo-D3: it seems you are a big fan of GPGPU.
1122 2011-04-13 08:56:53 <topi`> they do have the massive memory bandwidth that is required for massive ops, but fall short on I/O
1123 2011-04-13 08:57:06 <Diablo-D3> seeing as I wrote a gpu miner?
1124 2011-04-13 08:57:08 <Diablo-D3> sure
1125 2011-04-13 08:57:36 <topi`> I had exactly this same discussion with my friend 15 years back, at that time I was pointing out that the TMOS Transputer would be a good option for a sidekick card on an Amiga computer.
1126 2011-04-13 08:57:40 <topi`> he laughed at me :)
1127 2011-04-13 08:57:58 <lfm> topi they do tend to have some massive i/o in the form of video output
1128 2011-04-13 08:58:13 <topi`> lfm: the bottleneck is the interaction between the host system and the GPU
1129 2011-04-13 08:58:52 <lfm> pcie is not much of a bottleneck at 16x it seems
1130 2011-04-13 08:59:43 <krytzz> topi`: so you only bet its efficient :)
1131 2011-04-13 08:59:50 <topi`> well, there are latencies as well. and then you need to actually program the GPU from the host side.
1132 2011-04-13 08:59:57 <krytzz> topi`: a shame i have no time to try a neon miner
1133 2011-04-13 09:00:04 <topi`> krytzz: indeed, maybe I need to show the code as a proof.
1134 2011-04-13 09:00:08 <genjix> yoyo topi`
1135 2011-04-13 09:00:13 <topi`> morning genjix :)
1136 2011-04-13 09:00:36 <krytzz> topi`: also there is a dsp on board which can be used
1137 2011-04-13 09:00:38 <topi`> genjix: I spent yesterday translating the wikipedia article on Bitcoin to Finnish :)
1138 2011-04-13 09:01:13 <ArtForz> massive cluster of arm cores = meh
1139 2011-04-13 09:01:13 <topi`> krytzz: I don't remember if the TI dsps are efficient at bit rotates
1140 2011-04-13 09:01:42 <krytzz> topi`: no idea, and there is the powervr sgx 540
1141 2011-04-13 09:01:43 <topi`> ArtForz: I would just want to do a ./configure && make -j64
1142 2011-04-13 09:01:44 <topi`> :)
1143 2011-04-13 09:01:48 <topi`> simple ideas, simple desires!
1144 2011-04-13 09:01:50 <genjix> nice.
1145 2011-04-13 09:02:12 <ArtForz> and it'd still be slow as fuck
1146 2011-04-13 09:02:28 <topi`> ArtForz: probably, since it's hard to do coherent SMP with high amounts of cores
1147 2011-04-13 09:02:41 <ArtForz> and you also need massive ram bandwidth
1148 2011-04-13 09:02:58 <genjix> but arm is efficient so it could work.
1149 2011-04-13 09:03:03 <ArtForz> unless you have several MB of on-chip caches
1150 2011-04-13 09:03:14 <topi`> well, I've profiled typical gcc runs and it seems that even meager 1MB local cache is enough to keep most of the mem footprint inside
1151 2011-04-13 09:03:43 <topi`> now, for me it's more important to do make -j64 than to run Bitcoin mining.
1152 2011-04-13 09:03:52 <topi`> and no video card can compile the linux kernel for me. end of discussion :D
1153 2011-04-13 09:03:57 <ArtForz> a 1MB cache isn't exactly tiny, especially if has dozens of ports
1154 2011-04-13 09:04:11 <lfm> topi`: thats 1MB PER CORE
1155 2011-04-13 09:04:20 <ArtForz> imo for such large clusters, NUMA makes more sense
1156 2011-04-13 09:04:34 <Diablo-D3> PER COOORREEEEWAAARRTGH
1157 2011-04-13 09:04:34 <ArtForz> implement cache coherency on top
1158 2011-04-13 09:04:37 <topi`> lfm: indeed. well, the trend nowadays is to throw a lot of transistors around :)
1159 2011-04-13 09:05:03 <slush> hi, how block exchange in bitcoin works? It is single threaded?
1160 2011-04-13 09:05:06 <ArtForz> well, one can afford to throw a lot of transistors around, on 45nm or smaller
1161 2011-04-13 09:05:16 <topi`> ArtForz: there are many ways to implement cache coherency, the simplest is to do a bus snoop and invalidate. won't eat many transistors :)
1162 2011-04-13 09:05:34 <ArtForz> you want a *shared bus* between 64 cores?
1163 2011-04-13 09:05:40 <topi`> yes.
1164 2011-04-13 09:05:42 <slush> When I have 100 peers and one has very bad line, does it affect distribution speed?

1171 2011-04-13 09:09:17 <ArtForz> what I'd like to see is wider on-cpu vector units
1172 2011-04-13 09:09:44 <gjs278> make -j64 wouldn't be that good for projects with less files too
1173 2011-04-13 09:10:15 <topi`> gjs278: there are many other ways to explore parallelism :) have you tried using OpenMP pragmas in your codes?
1174 2011-04-13 09:10:17 <ArtForz> 256 bits vector width for avx is neat, but still tiny compared to GPUs
1175 2011-04-13 09:10:23 <gjs278> nope
1176 2011-04-13 09:10:32 <krytzz> right, in automake projects most of the time configure runs :)
1177 2011-04-13 09:10:46 <gjs278> topi` if you're interested in parallelsm go make gpg threaded
1178 2011-04-13 09:10:49 <gjs278> that would be cool
1179 2011-04-13 09:10:57 <topi`> OpenMP makes trivial to extract parallelism from simple problems, even from mandelbrot generation ;)
1180 2011-04-13 09:10:59 <gjs278> it's such a bottleneck right now for when I encrypt my backups

1182 2011-04-13 09:11:36 <topi`> gjs278: I have this image in my mind that many cryptos actually depend on the previous output of the crypto so they cannot be parallelized (easily)
1183 2011-04-13 09:11:39 <gjs278> dm-crypt just got multithreaded but only in the sense that it will use separate cores to process separate files, it won't go super crazy with one file
1184 2011-04-13 09:11:50 <gjs278> truecrypt can get absurd aes speeds

1187 2011-04-13 09:12:32 <krytzz> gjs278: are you sure? i think dm-crypt uses all cpus here
1188 2011-04-13 09:12:37 <ArtForz> well, with hardware accel you could always get insane speed
1189 2011-04-13 09:12:49 <gjs278> when I rate it on one file I only saw 8% max
1190 2011-04-13 09:12:50 <krytzz> gjs278: IF you trust the intel aes implementation lol
1191 2011-04-13 09:12:55 <gjs278> well
1192 2011-04-13 09:13:15 <ArtForz> my old 1GHz epia could push > 1GB/sec AES128
1193 2011-04-13 09:13:24 <gjs278> if intel aes had a backdoor, they wouldnt waste it on me

1195 2011-04-13 09:14:26 <gjs278> for dm-crypt I only see 8% usage max when I try it on one file, but when I start doing multiple files I can see it using more cpu. whereas before multiple files never went past 8% period
1196 2011-04-13 09:14:39 <gjs278> on the old versions that weren't threaded
1197 2011-04-13 09:14:40 <krytzz> gjs278: i just tried dd if=/dev/zero of=testfile, i get 0% idle here
1198 2011-04-13 09:14:45 <gjs278> hmm

1201 2011-04-13 09:15:00 <gjs278> maybe I just don't have it setup right
1202 2011-04-13 09:15:18 <ArtForz> dm-crypt has been using one core per mapping for years here
1203 2011-04-13 09:15:25 <krytzz> hm
1204 2011-04-13 09:15:26 <gjs278> they recently added it
1205 2011-04-13 09:16:09 <gjs278> I'll try the dd test on a partition I have
1206 2011-04-13 09:16:29 <topi`> ArtForz: does the Epia have some hw acceleration for aes128? I tested my Core2duo with openssl speed benchmark, and aes128-cbc is mere 130M/sec
1207 2011-04-13 09:16:56 <ArtForz> yea

1220 2011-04-13 09:20:47 <krytzz> well 197mb/s is good
1221 2011-04-13 09:21:29 <lfm> faster than I can do it by hand
1222 2011-04-13 09:23:21 <gjs278> I turned on some better xfs options for the partiton
1223 2011-04-13 09:23:31 <gjs278> got 474mb/s for a 2gb file
1224 2011-04-13 09:23:41 <krytzz> what are your harddrives?
1225 2011-04-13 09:23:59 <gjs278> the xfs always screws with any transfer reading
1226 2011-04-13 09:24:03 <krytzz> 474mb/s is probably hdd cache or something... cant be that fast
1227 2011-04-13 09:24:13 <gjs278> yeah
1228 2011-04-13 09:24:19 <gjs278> I'll do a 20gb file and see for real
1229 2011-04-13 09:24:31 <krytzz> well at least your cpu is faster than your harddrive
1230 2011-04-13 09:24:37 <krytzz> so nothing to worry

1232 2011-04-13 09:25:14 <gjs278> I can't get anything past 40mb/s with gpg working on it with just aes
1233 2011-04-13 09:25:25 <krytzz> then use dm-crypt :p
1234 2011-04-13 09:26:28 <gjs278> as long as gparted can use it sure
1235 2011-04-13 09:26:35 <gjs278> that's what I use for system rescue/backup restore
1236 2011-04-13 09:28:07 <krytzz> no idea i use cli tools but dm-crypt is old so it should be there in gparted

1277 2011-04-13 09:46:28 <sipa> the amount of (economically viable) energe spent on bitcoin mining daily is 7200 BTC * USD_per_BTC / UDF_per_kWh
1278 2011-04-13 09:46:31 <sipa> *USD
1279 2011-04-13 09:46:47 <ArtForz> sipa: yup
1280 2011-04-13 09:47:34 <gjs278> nobody is really forcing us to blow all of this
1281 2011-04-13 09:47:50 <gjs278> we could stop block mining right now and just run clients to handle transactions
1282 2011-04-13 09:48:03 <ArtForz> no you couldnt
1283 2011-04-13 09:48:13 <sipa> so the result is something of unit kWh/day, so multiply with 24000 and you get W
1284 2011-04-13 09:48:15 <gjs278> does block mining handle the transactions
1285 2011-04-13 09:48:36 <sipa> it's necessary for ordering them
1286 2011-04-13 09:48:39 <ArtForz> yep
1287 2011-04-13 09:48:40 <gjs278> well I mean
1288 2011-04-13 09:48:44 <gjs278> do we really need

1291 2011-04-13 09:49:00 <sipa> and a lot more
1292 2011-04-13 09:49:01 <ArtForz> it decides which of multiple tx try to spend the same input "wins"
1293 2011-04-13 09:49:11 <ArtForz> more = better
1294 2011-04-13 09:49:20 <sipa> more hashing power = safer network
1295 2011-04-13 09:49:48 <BlueMatt> ie protection from double-spend and other similar network attacks
1296 2011-04-13 09:49:49 <gjs278> only to keep someone from getting 50%
1297 2011-04-13 09:49:54 <ArtForz> yes
1298 2011-04-13 09:50:13 <BlueMatt> currently, it is easy for someone with large resources to get 50% (see: MM)
1299 2011-04-13 09:50:15 <gjs278> I guess that's true then, don't want some guy taking over the network
1300 2011-04-13 09:50:20 <ArtForz> yep
1301 2011-04-13 09:50:22 <gjs278> mm?
1302 2011-04-13 09:50:27 <ArtForz> MM had 350~400Gh/s
1303 2011-04-13 09:50:34 <gjs278> what was he using
1304 2011-04-13 09:50:39 <sipa> probably a botnet
1305 2011-04-13 09:50:52 <ArtForz> no one knows, thats why we called it the mystery miner
1306 2011-04-13 09:51:08 <UukGoblin> is he back?
1307 2011-04-13 09:51:15 <ArtForz> doesnt look like it
1308 2011-04-13 09:51:15 <da2ce7> (well some people know, it just isn't us)
1309 2011-04-13 09:51:20 <gjs278> is that why the difficulty got screwed up before
1310 2011-04-13 09:51:23 <sipa> yes
1311 2011-04-13 09:51:26 <gjs278> lol
1312 2011-04-13 09:51:26 <ArtForz> yea
1313 2011-04-13 09:51:34 <sipa> the big peak here: http://bitcoin.sipa.be/speed-lin-10k.png
1314 2011-04-13 09:51:39 <gjs278> well... cool at least he stopped
1315 2011-04-13 09:51:41 <sipa> around march 7th
1316 2011-04-13 09:51:53 <da2ce7> shittttt.
1317 2011-04-13 09:52:00 <ArtForz> see http://bitcoin.atspace.com/mysteryminer.html
1318 2011-04-13 09:52:05 <sipa> but difficulty is now higher than it was after MM's intervention
1319 2011-04-13 09:52:11 <UukGoblin> sipa, looks like we're peaking to around as much just now
1320 2011-04-13 09:52:12 <ArtForz> yea
1321 2011-04-13 09:52:18 <gjs278> did he transfer all of the coins to one address
1322 2011-04-13 09:52:26 <gjs278> or what did he even do with them
1323 2011-04-13 09:52:28 <ArtForz> yea
1324 2011-04-13 09:52:45 <sipa> UukGoblin: don't think so (yet)
1325 2011-04-13 09:52:50 <ArtForz> http://blockexplorer.com/a/eE8FVTkbx
1326 2011-04-13 09:52:52 <sipa> there is a lot of random variation
1327 2011-04-13 09:53:00 <gjs278> wow
1328 2011-04-13 09:53:20 <UukGoblin> there is indeed
1329 2011-04-13 09:53:32 <UukGoblin> but we're going up clearly ;-]
1330 2011-04-13 09:54:05 <gjs278> people on forums are constantly discouraging new people from joining in on the mining
1331 2011-04-13 09:54:23 <gjs278> whenever someone asks about buying like a 5870, the response is always don't bother, too late, etc
1332 2011-04-13 09:54:32 <BlueMatt> I hate that
1333 2011-04-13 09:54:33 <gjs278> just trying to keep all of the blocks for themselves
1334 2011-04-13 09:54:43 <ArtForz> well, because if difficulty keeps growing like that, it'll never pay off
1335 2011-04-13 09:54:47 <BlueMatt> see: my thread on "donating" miners
1336 2011-04-13 09:54:48 knotwork has joined
1337 2011-04-13 09:54:51 <ArtForz> just do the math yourself
1338 2011-04-13 09:55:02 <gjs278> in about 3 weeks I made up 1/3rd of the card value
1339 2011-04-13 09:55:06 <sipa> when i started mining in januari, i did the calculation
1340 2011-04-13 09:55:16 <sipa> i never expected difficulty to rise so quickly
1341 2011-04-13 09:55:20 <BlueMatt> yea, but some people donate to the mining power to help support the network
1342 2011-04-13 09:55:31 <sipa> but neither did i expect the price to rise so quickly
1343 2011-04-13 09:55:32 <BlueMatt> plus some people already have the gpus
1344 2011-04-13 09:55:41 <gjs278> yeah what about the price rising
1345 2011-04-13 09:55:46 <gjs278> right now it's back to $1
1346 2011-04-13 09:56:11 <sipa> people have found correlation between price and hash power, with a few weeks delay
1347 2011-04-13 09:56:31 <lfm> loose corelation
1348 2011-04-13 09:56:38 <gjs278> I have enough faith in the project and market that I won't be cashing out anytime soon
1349 2011-04-13 09:56:45 <TD> didn't somebody announce they wanted to buy 200k coins at $2 a piece?
1350 2011-04-13 09:56:49 <BlueMatt> sipa: for obvious reasons
1351 2011-04-13 09:56:49 <TD> perhaps they are pushing up the prices
1352 2011-04-13 09:56:56 <gjs278> I doubt that guy was legit
1353 2011-04-13 09:56:57 <BlueMatt> TD: it was fake
1354 2011-04-13 09:57:08 <BlueMatt> there have been several fake "Ill buy x coins for y" recently
1355 2011-04-13 09:57:13 <gjs278> if he wanted coins at $2 a piece, he could have easily done it without saying anything

1358 2011-04-13 09:57:47 <TD> ok
1359 2011-04-13 09:57:54 <TD> how do you know it was fake?
1360 2011-04-13 09:57:54 <gjs278> at $2 people would be dumping them left and right
1361 2011-04-13 09:58:11 <BlueMatt> afaik, no one has ever mentioned it went through
1362 2011-04-13 09:58:46 <gjs278> I'm just assuming it's fake because anyone with 200k would be smart enough to realize he could get the coins two days ago for like 75 cents each
1363 2011-04-13 09:58:47 <BlueMatt> thought it could have been done without publicity
1364 2011-04-13 09:59:03 <gjs278> and just buying them a couple thousand at a time
1365 2011-04-13 09:59:07 <gjs278> would obviously be better
1366 2011-04-13 09:59:16 <gjs278> than putting a $2 buy it now on mtgox
1367 2011-04-13 10:00:18 <gjs278> in the short term the guy would lose ridiculous amounts of money on that investment
1368 2011-04-13 10:00:48 <da2ce7> depends on what he was intending to do.
1369 2011-04-13 10:00:54 <gjs278> I'm assuming he wanted the coins just to hold onto them in case they ever became really valuable
1370 2011-04-13 10:01:01 <da2ce7> He said that he was wanting to use VC

1372 2011-04-13 10:01:35 <da2ce7> but 200k is very small for VC
1373 2011-04-13 10:01:37 <gjs278> it's not even a good form of vc really...
1374 2011-04-13 10:02:09 <gjs278> anyone using it for vc would obviously have to cash it out right away
1375 2011-04-13 10:02:10 <da2ce7> but if he was planning to open an extange or something like that...
1376 2011-04-13 10:03:09 <da2ce7> and already has say 200K BTC, maybe sending the market positive price signals would be in your intrest.

1383 2011-04-13 10:06:27 <BurtyB> ho
1384 2011-04-13 10:06:44 <sipa> vc?
1385 2011-04-13 10:06:47 <mbarkhau> is it true that the bitcoin client only accepts requests with correct username and password http://user:password@127.0.0.1:8332
1386 2011-04-13 10:06:52 <mbarkhau> ?
1387 2011-04-13 10:07:00 <mrb_> woot, looks like we are currently peaking at just about 1 Thash/s
1388 2011-04-13 10:07:19 <lfm> mbarkhau: ya it should
1389 2011-04-13 10:07:38 <mbarkhau> but then it has complete access to the client
1390 2011-04-13 10:07:48 <sipa> to all rpc calls, yes
1391 2011-04-13 10:07:50 <lfm> pretty much
1392 2011-04-13 10:08:14 <mbarkhau> wouldn't it be better to allow anonymous requests that can be acknowledged in the client?
1393 2011-04-13 10:08:32 <sipa> damn, i'll need to adjust my graphs if we go over 1GH/s :(
1394 2011-04-13 10:08:34 <mbarkhau> another app makes a request to send x btc to addr
1395 2011-04-13 10:08:56 <mbarkhau> and the user can accept that transaction in the client
1396 2011-04-13 10:09:07 <lfm> mbarkhau: um thats exactly the sort of request youd want a password for
1397 2011-04-13 10:09:31 <lfm> mbarkhau: oh you dont need to acces the client to RECEIVE money
1398 2011-04-13 10:09:57 <mbarkhau> no but I may not want to give another app total access to my wallet
1399 2011-04-13 10:10:04 <gjs278> you don't even accept tranfers, they're just yours
1400 2011-04-13 10:10:16 <gjs278> you can always give it back though
1401 2011-04-13 10:10:42 <lfm> mbarkhau: well spending money is exactly the sort of thing you want a password for
1402 2011-04-13 10:11:21 <mbarkhau> maybe i'm not being clear
1403 2011-04-13 10:12:06 <mbarkhau> i would like to write an app that can ask for a transaction to be made, but it is not actually made until the user accepts it in the bitcoin client
1404 2011-04-13 10:12:18 NickelBot has quit (Ping timeout: 252 seconds)
1405 2011-04-13 10:12:28 <mbarkhau> why would i need a password for that?
1406 2011-04-13 10:12:52 <lfm> mbarkhau: thats not supported. youd need a new intermediary to do that
1407 2011-04-13 10:12:58 <gjs278> how are you going to make the request
1408 2011-04-13 10:13:21 <gjs278> bitcoin client doesn't have such a feature as of yet... so not sure how you'd send it in
1409 2011-04-13 10:14:00 Kay_ has joined
1410 2011-04-13 10:14:02 <mbarkhau> gjs278: then i guess this is a feature request...
1411 2011-04-13 10:14:08 <gjs278> eh
1412 2011-04-13 10:14:16 <gjs278> it's a little complicated for a feature request
1413 2011-04-13 10:14:36 knotwork has quit (Ping timeout: 240 seconds)
1414 2011-04-13 10:14:40 <gjs278> are you basically using it like a way to send people bills
1415 2011-04-13 10:14:53 <da2ce7> sipa, venture capital
1416 2011-04-13 10:14:53 <gjs278> like you request the 50 coins from them, and they can just hit okay in their client and pay up
1417 2011-04-13 10:15:09 <lfm> better to do it as a separate program that accepts requests and then asks for ok then subits the txn to bitcoin with the password.
1418 2011-04-13 10:15:16 <Kay_> hi guys, i am trying to run Bitcoin on my mac and keep getting an error: "locale 'en_ZA' could not be set". any chance i could get help? searched but havent found anything.
1419 2011-04-13 10:15:42 <mbarkhau> gjs278: that would be one usage
1420 2011-04-13 10:16:17 <mbarkhau> i am thinking about writing an app and don't want the user to have give access to their entire wallet
1421 2011-04-13 10:16:21 <gjs278> do you have local access to the machine that will be getting the requests
1422 2011-04-13 10:16:24 <gjs278> like
1423 2011-04-13 10:16:27 <gjs278> the wallet.dat is on the computer
1424 2011-04-13 10:16:35 <lfm> isolate the password knowing to the special intermeiadat program
1425 2011-04-13 10:16:42 <gjs278> you could just avoid the protocol altogether
1426 2011-04-13 10:16:47 <gjs278> and write like a request.txt file to the datadir
1427 2011-04-13 10:16:48 NickelBot has joined
1428 2011-04-13 10:16:49 <mbarkhau> gjs278: ha, ok thats true
1429 2011-04-13 10:16:52 <gjs278> and code in support for that in bitcoin
1430 2011-04-13 10:17:14 <gjs278> like poll for request.txt, and if it pops up, do the queued transaction
1431 2011-04-13 10:17:42 <gjs278> no need to really mess with anonymous support in the protocol if you're local, over a network different issue I guess
1432 2011-04-13 10:17:42 <lfm> you want to tell the requester program if it was accepted tho dont you?
1433 2011-04-13 10:18:22 <mbarkhau> gjs278: on the other hand then it would be specific to the bitcoin client
1434 2011-04-13 10:18:23 <gjs278> mark the request.txt in a way that indicates it is complete
1435 2011-04-13 10:18:34 <sipa> why would you do so? just send the request through json?
1436 2011-04-13 10:18:44 <gjs278> he wants to avoid using his password
1437 2011-04-13 10:18:46 <sipa> *rpc
1438 2011-04-13 10:18:48 <lfm> sipa read back
1439 2011-04-13 10:18:50 <gjs278> so the json request would fail

1443 2011-04-13 10:19:55 <lfm> I still think its better to do it as a separate program that accepts requests and then asks for ok then submits the txn to bitcoin with the password.
1444 2011-04-13 10:20:06 <gjs278> oh yeah
1445 2011-04-13 10:20:16 <gjs278> that does make more sense
1446 2011-04-13 10:20:25 <gjs278> no need to touch bitcoin then
1447 2011-04-13 10:20:31 <lfm> right
1448 2011-04-13 10:21:18 <mbarkhau> lfm: i guess that would work
1449 2011-04-13 10:21:55 <gjs278> what do you plan on making with it
1450 2011-04-13 10:22:11 <mbarkhau> gjs278: top secret ;)
1451 2011-04-13 10:22:40 <gjs278> lol
1452 2011-04-13 10:22:46 <gjs278> are you going to opensource it
1453 2011-04-13 10:24:10 <mbarkhau> gjs278: i would say so yes
1454 2011-04-13 10:24:30 <lfm> also anyone in the same user account can read the username/password from ~/.bitcoin/bitcoin.config
1455 2011-04-13 10:24:56 <gjs278> that's why the plan is only slightly flawed
1456 2011-04-13 10:25:53 <mbarkhau> lfm: yes I just realized that pretty much makes my whole concern muted by another concern
1457 2011-04-13 10:26:02 <lfm> hehe
1458 2011-04-13 10:30:42 <sacarlson> that json method of transaction if done over wan isn't the username:password visable though your ISP?
1459 2011-04-13 10:31:09 <gjs278> yeah
1460 2011-04-13 10:31:26 <gjs278> your isp also has your irc password at the moment, expect to be ghosted in 5 minutes
1461 2011-04-13 10:31:29 <sacarlson> gjs278: so I guess only ment to be used to localhost?
1462 2011-04-13 10:31:47 <sipa> there's rpc-ssl
1463 2011-04-13 10:32:34 <sacarlson> gjs278: why are you running the irc server box?
1464 2011-04-13 10:32:51 <gjs278> of course not
1465 2011-04-13 10:33:02 genjix_alternate is now known as genjix

1468 2011-04-13 10:33:50 <sacarlson> gjs278: well I would think to see the user:pass would require access from the ISP or at the end of the transaction of the server box
1469 2011-04-13 10:35:33 <sacarlson> I run a very small ISP and I sometimes monitor trafic with wireshark,  I wonder how many other ISP techs do the same
1470 2011-04-13 10:36:09 <gjs278> not cool
1471 2011-04-13 10:36:12 <BlueMatt> sacarlson: you are a douche
1472 2011-04-13 10:36:57 <da2ce7> traffice is clear anyway, if your isp isn't looking at you, then sombody else it.
1473 2011-04-13 10:37:09 <sacarlson> gjs278: I have to test the network to verify what's broken,  I get complaints from users and I need to find the problem and I just use the tools that are available
1474 2011-04-13 10:37:20 <gjs278> well
1475 2011-04-13 10:37:24 <gjs278> that's a little different
1476 2011-04-13 10:37:38 <gjs278> I can imagine every isp tech would do the same if they were debugging something
1477 2011-04-13 10:37:45 <sacarlson> gjs278: but in doing so I also see what is visable to the eye
1478 2011-04-13 10:38:13 <gjs278> I'm sure a glance at it is nothing more than youtube and facebook traffic
1479 2011-04-13 10:38:25 <BlueMatt> sacarlson: ever heard of the wireshark search bar (the big one at the top)
1480 2011-04-13 10:38:52 <sacarlson> BlueMatt: you mean the filters?  I use those at times
1481 2011-04-13 10:39:04 <BlueMatt> so then why do you see what people are doing
1482 2011-04-13 10:39:08 <gjs278> wireshark revealed how easy it is to fake a minecraft auth server
1483 2011-04-13 10:39:10 <BlueMatt> aside from the person with the problem of course
1484 2011-04-13 10:39:13 <gjs278> filter out 80
1485 2011-04-13 10:39:14 <gjs278> or
1486 2011-04-13 10:39:19 <gjs278> filter only the ip you want
1487 2011-04-13 10:39:23 <gjs278> and then your spying problems go away
1488 2011-04-13 10:39:38 <sacarlson> BlueMatt: I can monitor just dns lookup so I can see where they attempted to go
1489 2011-04-13 10:39:48 <BlueMatt> gjs278: there is a difference between reverse engineering your stuff and watching what people are doing
1490 2011-04-13 10:39:54 <da2ce7> or just run tor and only conenct to your web-proxy throogh your own private hidden service.
1491 2011-04-13 10:39:57 <gjs278> yeah I know
1492 2011-04-13 10:40:04 <gjs278> but that's the only time I ever used wireshark really
1493 2011-04-13 10:40:18 <BlueMatt> I use it to diagnose problems all the time
1494 2011-04-13 10:40:29 * da2ce7 uses wireshark to fucking debug stupid network printers.
1495 2011-04-13 10:40:33 <gjs278> "reverse engineering" in minecrafts case was just an md5 sum that you can return and it will be accepted everytime
1496 2011-04-13 10:40:47 <BlueMatt> lol what a fail

1498 2011-04-13 10:41:48 <sacarlson> and I've also seen that wireshark works well at monitoring wifi networks in the same maner
1499 2011-04-13 10:43:38 <BlueMatt> speaking of debugging, anyone ever heard of bind returning crap after looking up dns from servers that it should never bu using to resolve? even dig +trace works fine as does dnstrace
1500 2011-04-13 10:43:40 <sacarlson> the point is that this json method should not be used on the wan or wifi am I correct?

1503 2011-04-13 10:44:13 <BlueMatt> sacarlson: really, it should just be listening on localhost
1504 2011-04-13 10:45:02 <BlueMatt> Though, I run mine through a lighttpd proxy which handles auth and https and then only that server is allowed to connect to rpc
1505 2011-04-13 10:45:23 <sacarlson> BlueMatt: that's what I was thinking,  I guess it could work ok on a switched lan network but it could still be mestup if someone tried to spoof an ip address
1506 2011-04-13 10:46:31 <BlueMatt> sacarlson: yea, but mine are one one central server (vm host) and only it is allowed on my dmz network, then the router handles permissions before passing it on to a separate network for bitcoin
1507 2011-04-13 10:46:45 <BlueMatt> which is just the router and bitcoind host
1508 2011-04-13 10:47:31 <BlueMatt> yea could be exploited but I also have a separate savings wallet so

1512 2011-04-13 11:00:17 <topi`> how do you query the current difficulty using json?
1513 2011-04-13 11:00:42 <topi`> supposedly somebody runs a server somewhere:)
1514 2011-04-13 11:00:52 <sipa> getinfo

1517 2011-04-13 11:01:59 <topi`> ok, but the bot has to know it from somewhere.
1518 2011-04-13 11:02:52 <lfm> topi`: ya, the bot gets it from bitcoin
1519 2011-04-13 11:03:01 <sipa> hmm, or from blockexplorer
1520 2011-04-13 11:03:17 <topi`> i just want to create a quick python script that just says import json and then creates a relevant json query
1521 2011-04-13 11:04:20 <lfm> and blockexplorer gets it from bitcoin too
1522 2011-04-13 11:05:54 <sipa> yes
1523 2011-04-13 11:06:17 <topi`> i'm not a javascript guru, is it possible to assign the output of a http request to a variable?
1524 2011-04-13 11:06:28 <topi`> in this case, the value from blockexplorer.com/q/getdifficulty
1525 2011-04-13 11:06:40 <sipa> definitely - though i don't know how
1526 2011-04-13 11:06:51 <gjs278> topi` I know how to do it with jquery
1527 2011-04-13 11:06:53 <gjs278> and .load
1528 2011-04-13 11:07:11 <topi`> gjs278: yep, but then I need to find an address to send the relevant jquery to.
1529 2011-04-13 11:07:25 <topi`> I just want to get the difficulty for my poor btc calculator :D
1530 2011-04-13 11:07:48 <gjs278> well
1531 2011-04-13 11:08:08 <gjs278> you could always get the current difficulty on your end
1532 2011-04-13 11:08:26 <gjs278> like you fetch the value with php/python and hardcode it into the script as a var
1533 2011-04-13 11:08:55 <gjs278> if you want to stick with pure javascript though, you run into crossdomain issues
1534 2011-04-13 11:09:08 <gjs278> as in, you can't fetch the contents of a website outside of your domain using javascript

1536 2011-04-13 11:10:04 <gjs278> so doing something like jquery.get('blockexplorer.com') is impossible unless you are currently hosting that code on blockexplorer.com itself
1537 2011-04-13 11:10:55 <topi`> yeah
1538 2011-04-13 11:10:58 Poopsie has joined
1539 2011-04-13 11:11:11 <topi`> i'll just do it in python json ...but then I need a source for that json data
1540 2011-04-13 11:11:46 <gjs278> well if you have bitcoind running you can get it from there, but using http://blockexplorer.com/q/getdifficulty is fine
1541 2011-04-13 11:11:56 <gjs278> just grab the contents and store it as a variable in python
1542 2011-04-13 11:12:08 <gjs278> no json required
1543 2011-04-13 11:12:21 <topi`> yeah, i'll just do a urllib.urlopen

1667 2011-04-13 13:50:33 <da2ce7> new one is 5D:57:02:AF:2D:4D:54:32:73:AD:C1:EE:21:07:98:9A:9C:B4:5F:D7
1668 2011-04-13 13:51:06 <da2ce7> not it didn't, it expited on the 2011-07-17 17:46:07
1669 2011-04-13 13:51:07 <MagicalTux> yeah, if you hash it with sha&
1670 2011-04-13 13:51:22 <MagicalTux> da2ce7: 2011-07 is in 3 months
1671 2011-04-13 13:51:32 <da2ce7> :P
1672 2011-04-13 13:51:37 <da2ce7> ok cool.
1673 2011-04-13 13:51:48 <da2ce7> i'll accept.
1674 2011-04-13 13:51:51 <da2ce7> :)
1675 2011-04-13 13:52:02 <MagicalTux> anything can't be as bad as godaddy
1676 2011-04-13 13:52:10 <da2ce7> lol yep
1677 2011-04-13 13:54:24 <eps2> nvidia really suck don't they
1678 2011-04-13 13:55:45 <eps2> upgraded the nvidia drivers because diablo miner was b0rking with the existing ones
1679 2011-04-13 13:56:25 <eps2> now the -f 1000 switch doesn't make my desktop usable
1680 2011-04-13 13:56:45 <eps2> and both diablo and poclbm use 100% of one of the CPU cores
1681 2011-04-13 13:57:40 <Diablo-D3> eps2: thats because nvidia sucks.
1682 2011-04-13 13:57:53 <Diablo-D3> both my miner and m0 will wham some people, and no one can figure out why
1683 2011-04-13 13:57:57 <Diablo-D3> it doesnt effect all nvidia users
1684 2011-04-13 13:58:04 <Diablo-D3> and seemingly almost identical machines wont do it
1685 2011-04-13 13:58:16 <Diablo-D3> so its not specific cards doing it
1686 2011-04-13 13:58:32 <eps2> i'm on ubuntu lucid
1687 2011-04-13 13:59:11 <Diablo-D3> as much as I hate ubuntu, its not limited to distro
1688 2011-04-13 13:59:16 <Diablo-D3> infact, its not even limited to OS
1689 2011-04-13 13:59:20 <Diablo-D3> some windows users have the issue
1690 2011-04-13 13:59:24 <eps2> just the drivers?
1691 2011-04-13 13:59:31 <Diablo-D3> its just nvidia cant fucking code
1692 2011-04-13 13:59:40 <Diablo-D3> its the only possible explanation
1693 2011-04-13 13:59:45 <eps2> heh ok
1694 2011-04-13 13:59:52 <UukGoblin> as if ati could...
1695 2011-04-13 14:00:08 <BlueMatt> no gpu drivers are actually good
1696 2011-04-13 14:00:21 <UukGoblin> the ones from sdk 2.1 /work/
1697 2011-04-13 14:00:25 <UukGoblin> I wouldn't call them good though
1698 2011-04-13 14:00:27 <Diablo-D3> UukGoblin: no, 2.4 works.
1699 2011-04-13 14:00:31 <UukGoblin> oh, there's 2.4?
1700 2011-04-13 14:00:34 <Diablo-D3> yes
1701 2011-04-13 14:00:38 * UukGoblin hasn't checked in for a while
1702 2011-04-13 14:00:40 <Diablo-D3> 2.4 is the new glorious perfect sdk
1703 2011-04-13 14:00:52 <BlueMatt> until you start having problems with it...
1704 2011-04-13 14:00:52 <eps2> and it gives you an extra 100 MHash
1705 2011-04-13 14:01:04 <Diablo-D3> heh
1706 2011-04-13 14:01:07 <Diablo-D3> well, for me
1707 2011-04-13 14:01:11 <UukGoblin> Diablo-D3, cool. eps2, bullshit ;-P
1708 2011-04-13 14:01:14 <Diablo-D3> 2.1 did high 75 mhash/sec
1709 2011-04-13 14:01:18 <Diablo-D3> 2.4 is doing low 76
1710 2011-04-13 14:01:26 <Diablo-D3> and 2.4 fixes the 2.2/2.3 cpu whoring bug
1711 2011-04-13 14:01:33 <UukGoblin> cool
1712 2011-04-13 14:01:39 <UukGoblin> it probably still requires running X
1713 2011-04-13 14:01:47 <Diablo-D3> think so
1714 2011-04-13 14:01:58 <Diablo-D3> but thats not like nvidia not needing it is a feature
1715 2011-04-13 14:02:01 <UukGoblin> but that's cool
1716 2011-04-13 14:02:21 <Diablo-D3> its not like in mesa you can have legitimate opengl usage outside of X
1717 2011-04-13 14:02:22 <UukGoblin> do you know if 2.4 can handle more than 8 GPU cores?
1718 2011-04-13 14:02:29 <Diablo-D3> UukGoblin: thats not an SDK issue
1719 2011-04-13 14:02:32 <Diablo-D3> thats a driver issue
1720 2011-04-13 14:02:38 <UukGoblin> ah yes that's the catalyst stuff
1721 2011-04-13 14:03:07 <Diablo-D3> you need to be on a 64 bit OS to get over 5
1722 2011-04-13 14:03:12 <Diablo-D3> Im not sure what the current limit is
1723 2011-04-13 14:03:28 <Diablo-D3> but hey, its not like you're going to have more than 8
1724 2011-04-13 14:03:34 <Diablo-D3> 5970/6990 x 4 = 8
1725 2011-04-13 14:03:42 <UukGoblin> 5970 x5 = 10
1726 2011-04-13 14:03:45 <Diablo-D3> and you wont find mobos that have more than 4 double wide x16
1727 2011-04-13 14:03:56 <Diablo-D3> all the 5 boards I see, the 5th is inaccessable
1728 2011-04-13 14:04:00 <UukGoblin> you don't need double wide and you don't need x16...
1729 2011-04-13 14:04:09 <eps2> risers
1730 2011-04-13 14:04:17 <Diablo-D3> eps2: not everybody is ArtForz.
1731 2011-04-13 14:05:06 <UukGoblin> Bart isn't ArtForz, but he's trying ;-]
1732 2011-04-13 14:05:27 <UukGoblin> how many of 'em asics does artforz have running these days? ;-]
1733 2011-04-13 14:05:29 Moonies has joined
1734 2011-04-13 14:05:44 <Diablo-D3> UukGoblin: who cares, Art is like  a fucking millionare now
1735 2011-04-13 14:05:57 <UukGoblin> I doubt it
1736 2011-04-13 14:06:23 <BlueMatt> UukGoblin: he was before he even got the asics (he spent a ton on them to begin with)
1737 2011-04-13 14:06:53 <UukGoblin> millionaire? I thought he said he had something about 40k btc...
1738 2011-04-13 14:07:04 <UukGoblin> that's a ten-thousandaire, but not millionaire
1739 2011-04-13 14:07:10 <BlueMatt> iirc he said something at one point about getting six figs/month for like 6-10 months from a mmo gold-farming program he wrote
1740 2011-04-13 14:07:14 <UukGoblin> satoshi, however...
1741 2011-04-13 14:07:25 <ersi> I doubt he bought the circuits for BTCs though
1742 2011-04-13 14:07:26 <UukGoblin> mmo?
1743 2011-04-13 14:07:33 <BlueMatt> UukGoblin: dont know which one
1744 2011-04-13 14:07:59 <eps2> i am not certain you could actually cash out that volume of BTC at the moment
1745 2011-04-13 14:08:11 <UukGoblin> what's mmo?
1746 2011-04-13 14:08:35 <BlueMatt> UukGoblin: a type of game (eg world of warcraft, phantasy star, etc)
1747 2011-04-13 14:08:39 <eps2> like world of warcraft
1748 2011-04-13 14:08:41 <UukGoblin> eps2, of course you can, there was 60k traded on mtgox today
1749 2011-04-13 14:08:45 <BlueMatt> massviely multiplayer online
1750 2011-04-13 14:08:46 <UukGoblin> oh, like mmorpg
1751 2011-04-13 14:08:46 aksoo has quit (Read error: Connection reset by peer)
1752 2011-04-13 14:09:07 <eps2> UukGoblin: all in one go?
1753 2011-04-13 14:09:10 <BlueMatt> I dont know if it was an rpg or some other type of mmo (though its not like there really are any other mmos these days)
1754 2011-04-13 14:09:16 <UukGoblin> eps2, no
1755 2011-04-13 14:09:22 <UukGoblin> eps2, total in the last 24h
1756 2011-04-13 14:09:53 <eps2> well until someone actually tries to sell a million dollars worth of bitcoins we won't know will we...
1757 2011-04-13 14:09:59 wolfspra1l has quit (Quit: leaving)
1758 2011-04-13 14:10:30 <UukGoblin> oh, you're talking million
1759 2011-04-13 14:10:37 <UukGoblin> I was talking tens-of-thousands
1760 2011-04-13 14:10:47 <eps2> if you don't do it all one transaction then your trades will affect the value
1761 2011-04-13 14:11:16 <UukGoblin> million btc is a ton
1762 2011-04-13 14:11:20 <eps2> and if you do do it all in one transaction then you need a buyer of btc willing to hand over a million dollars for them
1763 2011-04-13 14:11:25 <UukGoblin> maybe satoshi has that many
1764 2011-04-13 14:11:30 <BlueMatt> maybe
1765 2011-04-13 14:14:37 <vrs> 60k volume today at mtgox = 400btc for the mtgox operator today?
1766 2011-04-13 14:16:29 <vrs> sounds like you should totally open an exchange
1767 2011-04-13 14:19:33 <Speeder> mtgox is the biggest exchange
1768 2011-04-13 14:19:42 <Speeder> and today and yesterday were exceptions
1769 2011-04-13 14:19:59 <Speeder> mtgox probably is not profitable at all
1770 2011-04-13 14:20:03 <Speeder> (at least, it was not)
1771 2011-04-13 14:20:26 <UukGoblin> vrs, 780. 0.65% is taken at both ends (buyer and seller) I think.
1772 2011-04-13 14:20:42 * Kiba is wenty years old now O_o
1773 2011-04-13 14:20:57 <Speeder> I wonder if someone would sell a ferrari for BTC
1774 2011-04-13 14:21:04 <Speeder> that would create a incredible demand for BTC
1775 2011-04-13 14:21:09 <Speeder> and make its value skyrocket
1776 2011-04-13 14:21:29 <UukGoblin> if there is enough btc for that ferrari
1777 2011-04-13 14:21:31 <vrs> Speeder: i think it is now, if it even makes 1kbtc each month it already should
1778 2011-04-13 14:21:49 <Speeder> vrs you think what is now?
1779 2011-04-13 14:21:59 <UukGoblin> vrs, and people /are/ opening exchanges. I've seen quite a few new ones recently
1780 2011-04-13 14:22:18 <Speeder> I opened a exchange too XD sorta
1781 2011-04-13 14:22:23 <Speeder> for now only on OTC
1782 2011-04-13 14:22:28 <vrs> Speeder: profitable
1783 2011-04-13 14:22:31 <Speeder> (I trade brazillian reais if omeone is interested)
1784 2011-04-13 14:22:59 <Speeder> of course, trading BRL is probably totally pointless for most people outside Brazl
1785 2011-04-13 14:23:02 <Speeder> Brazil
1786 2011-04-13 14:23:09 <Speeder> and probably I am the only brazillian here
1787 2011-04-13 14:23:12 <vrs> UukGoblin: good, because centralization is evil :)
1788 2011-04-13 14:23:33 <EvanR-work> Speeder: until you spread the word
1789 2011-04-13 14:23:44 <UukGoblin> vrs, what would you say about wikipedia then
1790 2011-04-13 14:23:57 slush has quit (Quit: Leaving.)
1791 2011-04-13 14:24:14 glassresistor has joined
1792 2011-04-13 14:24:15 <vrs> UukGoblin: same
1793 2011-04-13 14:24:22 <Speeder> Yep
1794 2011-04-13 14:24:27 <vrs> sadly wikipedia is nigh unforkable
1795 2011-04-13 14:24:47 <Speeder> my main issue with wikipedia is that it is biased toward a side that I dislike the bias
1796 2011-04-13 14:24:52 <vrs> even if their license allows it, their databases are just too big
1797 2011-04-13 14:24:59 <Speeder> but non-political articles, wikipedia is usually good
1798 2011-04-13 14:25:10 <UukGoblin> it's pretty good most of the time
1799 2011-04-13 14:25:17 <UukGoblin> but I /would/ like to see it decentralized
1800 2011-04-13 14:25:28 <UukGoblin> vrs, the text is downloadable as xml dumps
1801 2011-04-13 14:25:36 <UukGoblin> I'm currently working on getting all the files
1802 2011-04-13 14:25:44 <vrs> UukGoblin: yeah, and nobody has the machines to import such a dump
1803 2011-04-13 14:25:45 <UukGoblin> which is much more difficult
1804 2011-04-13 14:25:57 <vrs> afaik >300GB xml for enwp
1805 2011-04-13 14:26:06 <vrs> or did they clean it up yet?
1806 2011-04-13 14:26:10 <Speeder> several political articles are US-centered
1807 2011-04-13 14:26:24 <Speeder> (some claim they are illuminate centered... I think that is bizarre, but I see their point)
1808 2011-04-13 14:26:26 <vrs> Speeder: reas other languages' wikipedias then
1809 2011-04-13 14:26:29 <Speeder> illuminati)
1810 2011-04-13 14:26:35 <Speeder> vrs even in other languages
1811 2011-04-13 14:26:35 <vrs> read*
1812 2011-04-13 14:26:37 <UukGoblin> vrs, 9GB 7zip compressed
1813 2011-04-13 14:26:45 <vrs> UukGoblin: compressed, yes
1814 2011-04-13 14:26:54 <Speeder> vrs for example, across all languages, discussing 9/11 theories is not allowed
1815 2011-04-13 14:27:09 <UukGoblin> 61GB uncompressed
1816 2011-04-13 14:27:12 <Speeder> as soon as you suggest any disagreement with official 9/11 stance, other editors destroy you
1817 2011-04-13 14:27:21 <vrs> UukGoblin: ah, my numbers must be outdated then
1818 2011-04-13 14:27:28 <UukGoblin> with 2TB disks, it's totally decompressible
1819 2011-04-13 14:27:34 <vrs> Speeder: that's because 9/11 theorists are mostly a bunch of whackos
1820 2011-04-13 14:27:47 <UukGoblin> vrs, at least that's what 7za seems to be showing: 2011-03-16 21:08:49 .....  66307793999   9583238256  enwiki-20110115-pages-meta-current.xml
1821 2011-04-13 14:27:57 <Kiba> 9/11 is a distraction...

1823 2011-04-13 14:28:03 <Speeder> vrs not really... several know what they are talking about (Even if you disagree with them)
1824 2011-04-13 14:28:07 js0000 has joined
1825 2011-04-13 14:28:21 <Speeder> you cannot even write that disagreement exists on 9/11
1826 2011-04-13 14:28:26 <vrs> Speeder: sure you can
1827 2011-04-13 14:28:31 * UukGoblin would donate to an opensource distributed wikipedia project
1828 2011-04-13 14:28:54 <Speeder> look at the edit history of 9/11
1829 2011-04-13 14:29:00 <da2ce7> UukGoblin? freenet?
1830 2011-04-13 14:29:01 <Speeder> you will see LOOOOOONG edit wars
1831 2011-04-13 14:29:09 <vrs> the last time i was in an editwar about 9/11 theories there was a lot of disagreement documented in the article
1832 2011-04-13 14:29:12 <UukGoblin> da2ce7, something like that, yes
1833 2011-04-13 14:29:15 <UukGoblin> da2ce7, but more usable
1834 2011-04-13 14:29:27 <vrs> i know, i edited wikipedia (de) for two years
1835 2011-04-13 14:29:37 <UukGoblin> including open proxies that allow it to be browsed by people without specialized software, just a browser
1836 2011-04-13 14:29:45 <Speeder> but 9/11 was just one example
1837 2011-04-13 14:29:45 <da2ce7> UukGoblin, donate to a freetalk wiki fund.
1838 2011-04-13 14:30:01 <Speeder> many things are biased toward a US-capitalistic view.
1839 2011-04-13 14:30:10 <UukGoblin> da2ce7, where's that?
1840 2011-04-13 14:30:24 * da2ce7 is making one now!
1841 2011-04-13 14:30:39 <Kiba> the internet gave us lot of great information outside the mainstream
1842 2011-04-13 14:30:44 <UukGoblin> da2ce7, oh lol.
1843 2011-04-13 14:30:54 <Kiba> but it also gave us lot of wacko information
1844 2011-04-13 14:30:58 <Kiba> it's the nature of the beast
1845 2011-04-13 14:31:08 <da2ce7> UukGoblin? have you tried out freetalk yet?
1846 2011-04-13 14:31:27 <UukGoblin> what's freetalk? I tried frost and FMS IIRC... or one of the two
1847 2011-04-13 14:32:16 <UukGoblin> a console based jabber client?
1848 2011-04-13 14:32:47 <da2ce7> no, it is super new
1849 2011-04-13 14:32:58 <da2ce7> its a an offical plugin for freenet
1850 2011-04-13 14:32:58 <UukGoblin> link?
1851 2011-04-13 14:33:02 <da2ce7> um...
1852 2011-04-13 14:33:35 <da2ce7> http://new-wiki.freenetproject.org/Freetalk
1853 2011-04-13 14:34:41 <UukGoblin> da2ce7, right

1860 2011-04-13 14:38:38 <UukGoblin> da2ce7, also, I'm not sure if it's possible to solve the popularity issue in freenet (i.e. content that is not popular vanishes in the network)
1861 2011-04-13 14:40:10 <UukGoblin> you wouldn't want a page about a XV-century invention to disappear just because no-one visited it in a year

1874 2011-04-13 14:59:04 <luke-jr> sirius-m: erm, we already have them
1875 2011-04-13 14:59:12 <sirius-m> do we?

1877 2011-04-13 14:59:46 <luke-jr> sirius-m: well, the wx client doesn't support them, but basically every other one does now
1878 2011-04-13 14:59:46 <sirius-m> never seen
1879 2011-04-13 14:59:55 <[Tycho]> We have them. Sadly there is no software to support it.
1880 2011-04-13 15:00:08 <luke-jr> although js-remote's implementation is non-compliant I hear
1881 2011-04-13 15:00:22 <luke-jr> [Tycho]: erm, at least 3 clients do
1882 2011-04-13 15:00:31 <BlueMatt> there is a chrome plugin that works really well for those
1883 2011-04-13 15:00:34 <[Tycho]> Oh, there are 4 bitcoin clients ?
1884 2011-04-13 15:00:38 <luke-jr> Spesmilo even installs the KDE protocol handler for you
1885 2011-04-13 15:01:10 <luke-jr> so I can literally click such a link in my browser and get a dialog to send
1886 2011-04-13 15:01:23 <BlueMatt> luke-jr: yea
1887 2011-04-13 15:01:30 <BlueMatt> oh...sorry
1888 2011-04-13 15:01:47 <luke-jr> (patches to support GNOME, Firefox, Chrome, etc welcome)
1889 2011-04-13 15:02:02 <sirius-m> do you know if it's doable in wx?
1890 2011-04-13 15:02:17 <UukGoblin> there are 4 bitcoin clients now?
1891 2011-04-13 15:02:19 <BlueMatt> sirius-m: should be
1892 2011-04-13 15:02:24 <BlueMatt> what are the clients?
1893 2011-04-13 15:02:26 * UukGoblin heard about bitcoinj, but others?
1894 2011-04-13 15:02:28 <luke-jr> sirius-m: dunno, wx is tightly tied to the wallet
1895 2011-04-13 15:02:32 <BlueMatt> wx, spesmilo, js?
1896 2011-04-13 15:02:42 <luke-jr> there's some .NET client too
1897 2011-04-13 15:02:49 <BlueMatt> really?
1898 2011-04-13 15:03:01 <luke-jr> afaik. I don't use .NET

1900 2011-04-13 15:03:23 <BlueMatt> you can sort of count the chrome extensions.  It shows your balance and you can send from it
1901 2011-04-13 15:03:30 <BlueMatt> but thats all
1902 2011-04-13 15:03:51 <[Tycho]> But it needs official server running ?
1903 2011-04-13 15:03:55 <luke-jr> sirius-m: to get bitcoin: URI support in wx, I think you'd need to either implement it using JSON-RPC, or use some other IPC to talk to the main window
1904 2011-04-13 15:04:24 <BlueMatt> [Tycho]: yea, but so does js-remote
1905 2011-04-13 15:04:27 <luke-jr> [Tycho]: Spesmilo at least uses JSON-RPC to talk to its wallet. It can optionally run/manage bitcoind itself.

1908 2011-04-13 15:05:52 <gasteve> I expect to be able to publish the reworked source files tonight...everything compiles and seems to work well

1910 2011-04-13 15:06:26 <gasteve> luke-jr: yes?
1911 2011-04-13 15:06:33 <luke-jr> gasteve: what source? :P
1912 2011-04-13 15:06:39 <BlueMatt> gasteve: reworked as in...?

1917 2011-04-13 15:07:54 <BlueMatt> ah, nice
1918 2011-04-13 15:08:01 <gasteve> it's compiling with autotools (both UI and daemon, though it's not yet configured to work without modification across platforms)
1919 2011-04-13 15:08:10 <luke-jr> gasteve: awesome
1920 2011-04-13 15:08:17 <gasteve> also, headers and non-class sources are still a bit of a mess
1921 2011-04-13 15:08:35 <gasteve> but, I want to go ahead and publish to give people a change to critique it

1925 2011-04-13 15:18:28 skyewm has joined
1926 2011-04-13 15:22:40 <gasteve> next steps would be: 1) cleanup/prune headers and non-class sources, 2) see if I can eliminate the use of -DGUI in the builds, 3) move sources into subdirs oriented around peer, gui, rpc, wallet, miner, and common, 4) look at jgarzik's autotools work and make it all work across platforms
1927 2011-04-13 15:24:32 <tcatm> gasteve: it's best if you make it all very small patches and split the "sources into seperate class files" into a seperate patch
1928 2011-04-13 15:24:55 <gasteve> why is that?
1929 2011-04-13 15:25:11 <sipa> the split-sources-patch will conflict with everything
1930 2011-04-13 15:25:27 <gasteve> yes, of course...sort of the nature of the beast
1931 2011-04-13 15:25:29 <tcatm> and confuse a lot of developers
1932 2011-04-13 15:25:55 <sipa> so to have a chance of merging, it should be done very quickly, and people should be able to verify that it absolutely does not do anything but move code around

1937 2011-04-13 15:27:57 <gasteve> I plan on syncing it with the tip of the master branch...so there wouldn't be anything to sync...how would I otherwise make it easy to verify code hasn't changed (other than being moved)?
1938 2011-04-13 15:28:45 <gasteve> (I also plan on keeping it in sync with the master branch as new commits are made)
1939 2011-04-13 15:28:57 <luke-jr> gasteve: honestly, why not just strip the miner out?
1940 2011-04-13 15:29:18 <gasteve> luke-jr: well, I don't want to make any functional changes yet
1941 2011-04-13 15:29:20 <tcatm> luke-jr: see forum. there's a thread and I even made a pull request that removes the miner completely
1942 2011-04-13 15:29:59 <gasteve> (but otherwise, I agree with removing the miner)
1943 2011-04-13 15:30:01 <sipa> i'm in favor of removing the miner, but not everyone is, and i don't think gasteve's reorganization should bother with things that are controversial
1944 2011-04-13 15:30:11 <luke-jr> sipa: why isn't everyone?
1945 2011-04-13 15:30:17 <sipa> read the forum
1946 2011-04-13 15:30:49 <luke-jr> don't see it
1947 2011-04-13 15:30:51 <eps2> luke-jr wants to protect the bitcoin artistocracy, he doesn't want the little people mining
1948 2011-04-13 15:31:04 <luke-jr> eps2: the builtin miner is worthless
1949 2011-04-13 15:31:23 <gasteve> yeah, you can't even make it mine as part of a pool can you?
1950 2011-04-13 15:31:29 <luke-jr> nope
1951 2011-04-13 15:31:38 <eps2> it's worth is related to the difficulty
1952 2011-04-13 15:31:40 <gasteve> completely worthless
1953 2011-04-13 15:31:43 <eps2> which can change
1954 2011-04-13 15:31:44 * luke-jr watches bugfix https://www.bitcoin.org/smf/index.php?topic=5606.0 fall off the topic list
1955 2011-04-13 15:31:45 <tcatm> luke-jr: we simplified the miner, removed GUI options and disabled it by default
1956 2011-04-13 15:31:50 <sipa> eps2: there are better cpu miners out there
1957 2011-04-13 15:31:56 <eps2> then replace it
1958 2011-04-13 15:32:01 <eps2> don't remove it
1959 2011-04-13 15:32:08 <luke-jr> eps2: if difficulty ever goes low enough that it works again, then anyone with a GPU can take over the network.
1960 2011-04-13 15:32:15 <gasteve> maybe instead there should be a link in the GUI to websites where bitcoins can be bought
1961 2011-04-13 15:32:19 <luke-jr> tcatm: sure, but that doesn't remove it entirely
1962 2011-04-13 15:32:58 <tcatm> it's still there so one can easily start a small testnet with two or more bitcoinds
1963 2011-04-13 15:33:06 <luke-jr> gasteve: even better would be a standard market API to allow clients to provide a simple buy dialog
1964 2011-04-13 15:33:12 <gasteve> yes
1965 2011-04-13 15:33:24 <luke-jr> tcatm: fair enough
1966 2011-04-13 15:33:53 <gasteve> it would be nice to have one CPU miner and one GPU miner made semi official and downloadable from the main bitcoin website
1967 2011-04-13 15:34:01 <gasteve> (both should support pool mining)
1968 2011-04-13 15:34:48 <luke-jr> gasteve: there is no official, but I agree bitcoin.org should be reorganized somewhat

1970 2011-04-13 15:35:18 <sipa> gasteve: anyway, i don't know how appreciative the people with commit rights are of reorganizing the source code, but maybe you can ask for a temporary freeze so you have time to sync with the github master?
1971 2011-04-13 15:35:20 <luke-jr> eg, an inclusive software list with maybe one "recommended" from each category based on its marketshare
1972 2011-04-13 15:35:24 <gasteve> yeah, don't want to start a debate about which miner...but having one endorsed by the main website would be a good thing
1973 2011-04-13 15:36:13 <luke-jr> although, basing it on marketshare means it's harder for a technically superior client to GAIN marketshare, but I can't think of a better way ;)
1974 2011-04-13 15:36:20 <tcatm> IIRC there was a discussion about reorganizing source before
1975 2011-04-13 15:36:22 <gasteve> sipa: I don't mind maintain and keeping it in sync for a while...I don't want to try and force anyone to adopt the reorganized sources
1976 2011-04-13 15:36:41 <gasteve> *maintaining
1977 2011-04-13 15:36:46 <tcatm> there's even a reorganized source repo somewhere
1978 2011-04-13 15:36:54 <sipa> i haven't seen your work either of course, but in general i think there is a lot of room for improvement currently :)

Question: what happens, if right after I create and broadcast a transaction, some new money arrives at one of the input addresses? will that affect my transaction if it hasn't made it into a block yet?
2030 2011-04-13 16:28:05 <EvanR-work> +1 -1 is the same as -1 +1 isnt it ? :)
2031 2011-04-13 16:28:08 <sipa> no, you always spend entire transaction outputs
2032 2011-04-13 16:28:26 <BlueMatt> jav___: it is all or nothing of a tx, not an address
2033 2011-04-13 16:28:30 <sipa> if there are mutliple transactions to the same address, you will reuse one or both of them when creating a new tx
2034 2011-04-13 16:30:35 <jav___> aww.. ok, that's what I got mixed up.. it's entire transaction outputs, not an entire address balance.. of course, that makes more sense, thx for clearing that up sipa

2109 2011-04-13 17:58:51 <ersi> Hi.
2110 2011-04-13 17:59:10 <[Tycho]> Hello.
2111 2011-04-13 17:59:17 <MightyMole> I just found out about bitcoin, and was wondering how to mine...? >.<
2112 2011-04-13 17:59:56 jrabbit has quit (Read error: Operation timed out)
2113 2011-04-13 18:01:32 nj8668 has quit (Quit: Leaving)
2114 2011-04-13 18:02:00 <ersi> You can mine with the official software, but only with your CPU. These days, a lot of people have some madness-in-a-box crunching gear in form of high performance graphic cards (and others who have specialised hardware). If you got a decently new graphics card, I'd recommend looking into using one of the "GPU Miner" softwares
2115 2011-04-13 18:02:42 <ersi> If you're getting less than 200-300MHash/s with any of them, you should probably join a 'mining pool' - which shares the load of work and reward between the members
2116 2011-04-13 18:02:47 <luke-jr> MightyMole: by "madness-in-a-box", ersi means you'll never find a block with your CPU
2117 2011-04-13 18:03:13 Dark_Ghost has quit (Read error: Connection reset by peer)
2118 2011-04-13 18:03:46 <MightyMole> So I just download the client, and it starts mining after it's done downloading all the blocks?
2119 2011-04-13 18:04:01 <luke-jr> MightyMole: no, it's off by default. don't turn it on.
2120 2011-04-13 18:05:30 <MightyMole> Luke-jr: I'm confused, what do you mean?
2121 2011-04-13 18:05:45 jrabbit has joined
2122 2011-04-13 18:05:51 <luke-jr> MightyMole: it will just put wear on your CPU, and eat electricity
2123 2011-04-13 18:06:12 <ersi> Means you should probably not mine with the official client/software
2124 2011-04-13 18:06:47 <Keefe> luke-jr: thanks for the new info in -watch. looks great!
2125 2011-04-13 18:06:51 <[Tycho]> MightyMole, what GPU do you have ?
2126 2011-04-13 18:07:14 <luke-jr> Keefe: any ideas regarding making block/TX/trade the same length? :P
2127 2011-04-13 18:07:50 <MightyMole> nvidia GeForce 9800 GX2
2128 2011-04-13 18:08:56 <luke-jr> MightyMole: worthless

2130 2011-04-13 18:09:24 <MightyMole> luke-jr: Ok, so where should I mine?
2131 2011-04-13 18:09:26 <Keefe> ;;bc,gen 58000
2132 2011-04-13 18:09:28 <gribble> The expected generation output, at 58000 Khps, given current difficulty of 82347.22294654 , is 0.708439750439 BTC per day and 0.029518322935 BTC per hour.
2133 2011-04-13 18:09:29 <luke-jr> Keefe: basically, I think a 5-character "transaction" would be nice
2134 2011-04-13 18:09:35 <luke-jr> MightyMole: Radeon or not at all
2135 2011-04-13 18:09:48 <Keefe> luke-jr: or just add whitespace
2136 2011-04-13 18:10:23 <Keefe> or BK for block?
2137 2011-04-13 18:10:25 <BlueMatt> MightyMole: if you want to be profitable only high end atis are, if you just want to mine for the hell of it (or dont pay for electricity) any high-end graphics card will get you some small amount of btc, but atis have some instructions which make them much faster for mining
2138 2011-04-13 18:10:32 <luke-jr> Keefe: how about trades, then?
2139 2011-04-13 18:10:37 <Keefe> or remove 3 0's? eww
2140 2011-04-13 18:10:55 <luke-jr> (also, I get crap for "TX" being other than "transmit" :P)
2141 2011-04-13 18:11:00 <Keefe> i like trades to be visibly separate, so it's good as is

2145 2011-04-13 18:12:41 <luke-jr> MightyMole: no such thing
2146 2011-04-13 18:12:57 <BlueMatt> MightyMole: then use your 9800 gx2 and mine with poclbm or diablo's miner
2147 2011-04-13 18:12:58 <luke-jr> mining is worthless to EVERYONE on a CPU
2148 2011-04-13 18:13:10 <BlueMatt> MightyMole: though you might want to join a pool

2152 2011-04-13 18:13:51 <BlueMatt> and if you have an army of cpu miners they will eventually find a block (kinda the original intent of pools)

2223 2011-04-13 18:57:49 <roconnor_> does the hash for a block need to be less-than or less-than-or-equal to the target difficulty thing?
2224 2011-04-13 18:58:35 <roconnor_> the Protocol_rules, https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Protocol_rules, isn't clear on this.

2256 2011-04-13 19:26:06 <Necr0s> I keep wondering if something is wrong with my mining system...
2257 2011-04-13 19:26:37 <Necr0s> I've had a very low generation rate for the past 30 days (since I reconfigured it), despite an apparently normal hashrate.
2258 2011-04-13 19:27:04 <[Tycho]> Are you mining solo ?
2259 2011-04-13 19:27:07 <Necr0s> And of the 5 blocks that were generated, all of them happened on one single miner instance, out of 4 running on the system.
2260 2011-04-13 19:27:08 <Necr0s> yes.
2261 2011-04-13 19:27:41 <Necr0s> However today I lwft the miners running but restarted bitcoind with -testnet, and I got generation on all 4 miner instances.
2262 2011-04-13 19:28:15 <Necr0s> So yeah, 5 blocks generated in 30 days at 992000khps.
2263 2011-04-13 19:28:22 <Necr0s> ;;bc,calc 992000
2264 2011-04-13 19:28:24 <gribble> The average time to generate a block at 992000 Khps, given current difficulty of 82347.22294654 , is 4 days, 3 hours, 2 minutes, and 10 seconds
2265 2011-04-13 19:31:17 <BlueMatt> jgarzik: it builds, what do you want me to test?

2307 2011-04-13 19:50:04 <Necr0s> But at some point there will be no more btc to be mined...
2308 2011-04-13 19:50:11 <jgarzik> Necr0s: transaction fees
2309 2011-04-13 19:51:05 <Necr0s> So hashing still occurs, difficulty is adjusted based on network strength, and new blocks are still generated much like they are now, but each one will not have 50 BTC for the generator built-in?
2310 2011-04-13 19:51:34 <xelister> 3 BTC to find current maintainer of https://launchpad.net/vmbuilder on IRC and call him a stupid nigger
2311 2011-04-13 19:51:35 <Necr0s> The reward instead being any transaction fees included in the transactions being recorded.
2312 2011-04-13 19:52:18 <xelister> seriously they ignore $TMPDIR and break forward compatibilty by REMOVING EXISTING OPTIONS LIKE -tmp= AND BREAKING ANY WORK-AROUND BY IGNORING $TMPDIR . WHO THE FUCK DOES THAT. FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU
2313 2011-04-13 19:52:24 <Necr0s> That makes sense.
2314 2011-04-13 19:52:35 <ersi> xelister: It's probably 'smoser'. He's online on this net. Do I get a reward? :)
2315 2011-04-13 19:52:57 <ersi> (He's got most points in the LP project)
2316 2011-04-13 19:53:45 <jgarzik> Necr0s: right now reward is 50 BTC + TX fees.  eventually that declines to 0.00 BTC + TX fees.  At that point (40 years in the future?) bitcoin will have succeeded to the point where TX fees can sustain the system, or it will have died long before the block reward reaches zero.
2317 2011-04-13 19:53:47 <phantomcircuit> xelister, it's hallyn

2335 2011-04-13 19:55:50 <tcatm> not 0. it'll include the transaction fee

2337 2011-04-13 19:56:16 <krytzz> roconnor_: we have to continue to create blocks so the TXs are confirmed
2338 2011-04-13 19:56:36 <xelister> ersi: we do not support -tmp no more....    nor $TMPDIR.  problem ? :D

2373 2011-04-13 20:01:57 <phantomcircuit> xelister, which iirc is the entire point of tmpfs instead of a ram block device
2374 2011-04-13 20:02:11 <xelister> phantomcircuit: it filsl it to 100% and then refuses to make more files in /tmp
2375 2011-04-13 20:02:28 <xelister> anyway. what if my /tmp would be just small on some speciall embbed dev.
2376 2011-04-13 20:02:29 <genjix> scriptSig: <sha256 hash of scriptPubKey>
2377 2011-04-13 20:02:41 <phantomcircuit> xelister, you can just change the size of the tmpfs
2378 2011-04-13 20:02:59 <rly> Everything stored in tmpfs is temporary in the sense that no files will be created on the hard drive; however, swap space is used as backing store in case of low memory situations.
2379 2011-04-13 20:02:59 <EPiSKiNG> [Tycho] you around?

2387 2011-04-13 20:05:03 <phantomcircuit> rly, im not sure what it is in the current implementation, but it could be trivially implemented as a B tree lookup
2388 2011-04-13 20:05:58 <rly> phantomcircuit: if the current implementation stinks, it could destroy Bitcoin.
2389 2011-04-13 20:06:02 <phantomcircuit> or i guess 2 look ups
2390 2011-04-13 20:06:04 <gavinandresen> rly:  yeah, what phantomcircuit said:  depends on how you store the block chain transactions.   Current bitcoin, if you aren't Alice then it is linear.
2391 2011-04-13 20:06:55 <xelister> ok we are working with hallyn for workaround
2392 2011-04-13 20:07:19 <rly> gavinandresen: linear in the number of times a particular coin has been spent or in total transactions?
2393 2011-04-13 20:07:22 <xelister> TMPDIR works. just need to get the wrapper program 'vmbuilder' to convert -tmp=foo into env-var. and workaround works.
2394 2011-04-13 20:07:46 <gavinandresen> rly: total transactions. Current bitcoin doesn't bother indexing transactions by public key that don't belong to you.
2395 2011-04-13 20:08:23 <gavinandresen> rly:  ... and that's not a problem, because when the transaction is spent you get it's transaction hash (and transactions are indexed by hash)
2396 2011-04-13 20:09:06 <xelister> if after that vmbuilder still doesnt work, I'm going to blow up an atomic power plant in my country.
2397 2011-04-13 20:09:09 <xelister> 100% seriously.
2398 2011-04-13 20:09:43 <rly> gavinandresen: that last part is not clear to me.
2399 2011-04-13 20:10:32 <roconnor_> what should I do if I've sent out a transaction but no one is willing to validate it because the transaction fee is too low?
2400 2011-04-13 20:10:33 <gavinandresen> rly:  current bitcoin never performs operations like "Here is a random public key.  Are there any transactions involving it?"
2401 2011-04-13 20:11:24 <gavinandresen> rly:  current bitcoin knows all of YOUR public keys, and looks for transactions that involve them...  it doesn't really care about other people's.
2402 2011-04-13 20:11:54 <rly> gavinandresen: but to check for double spending, you need to check a random public key, no?
2403 2011-04-13 20:12:11 roconnor_ is now known as roconnor
2404 2011-04-13 20:12:18 <gavinandresen> rly: no-- transactions refer to previous transactions by transaction id (== hash), not by public keys.
2405 2011-04-13 20:12:50 <gavinandresen> ... and all you care about with a double-spend is where the bitcoins come from (previous transactions == previous hashes)
2406 2011-04-13 20:12:52 <rly> gavinandresen: ok, but you still have to traverse all those transactions then.

2408 2011-04-13 20:13:34 <gavinandresen> If you're asking what's the comp. complexity for checking if a transaction is valid, that's a different question...
2409 2011-04-13 20:15:16 <xelister> ersi: hey I was wrong it does support TMPDIR, working iwht hallyn on full solution though
2410 2011-04-13 20:15:39 <sipa> a b-tree lookup should be log(n) in complexity
2411 2011-04-13 20:15:53 <sipa> and you know the full hash of the transaction you're looking for
2412 2011-04-13 20:16:02 <ersi> xelister: Neat :) Did you take back the 'fucking nigger' part first? :P
2413 2011-04-13 20:16:15 <ersi> xelister: Oh, I know. Offer him the BTC reward ;)
2414 2011-04-13 20:16:25 <sipa> i wonder why github shows jgarzik's commits as "Jeff Garzic" instead of his user name
2415 2011-04-13 20:17:02 <gavinandresen> yeah, txn validation should be    M log(n) where M is number of inputs and n is total number of transactions.  Unless you can fit it all in memory and do it in M * constant time.
2416 2011-04-13 20:17:30 <xelister> ersi: >_>

2428 2011-04-13 20:21:25 <BlueMatt> because the 1.5 one wouldnt build for me

2439 2011-04-13 20:28:02 <jgarzik> well, I define gold bugs as people who think buying gold is always a good idea, because, just look at how awfully managed governments are, surely they will collapse any day now
2440 2011-04-13 20:28:20 <jgarzik>  /some/ people might buy bitcoins for the same reason, but I doubt it.
2441 2011-04-13 20:28:37 <BlueMatt> odd, AFAIK most people buy bitcoin for that reason
2442 2011-04-13 20:28:40 <jgarzik> bitcoins are more likely to collapse than the US gov't, at this point :)
2443 2011-04-13 20:29:15 <jgarzik> BlueMatt: IMO there's a vast difference between not liking a system, and thinking said system will collapse any day now, therefore you must put all your savings into bitcoins.

2460 2011-04-13 20:33:06 <BlueMatt> yea 1149 is a fairly low number
2461 2011-04-13 20:33:07 <luke-jr> jgarzik: pfft, I know the RFC, even if I don't have the number memorized
2462 2011-04-13 20:33:10 * sipa was 14 years old then, but heard about it much later :)
2463 2011-04-13 20:33:12 <jgarzik> RFC 1149 has been successfully implemented in the field, even.
2464 2011-04-13 20:33:14 <luke-jr> BlueMatt: no, idiot, the actual date

2536 2011-04-13 20:54:53 <genjix> great.
2537 2011-04-13 20:55:20 <sipa> and ripemd160(sha256(pubkey)) is the relevant part of an address
2538 2011-04-13 20:55:29 parus has joined
2539 2011-04-13 20:55:35 <genjix> i mean for signing a script

2541 2011-04-13 20:55:59 <sipa> i don't think there is any ascii representation internally
2542 2011-04-13 20:56:02 <genjix> and the pubkey of the signer is appended after
2543 2011-04-13 20:56:24 <Necr0s> I'm interested in writing a miner in perl for the lulz.
2544 2011-04-13 20:56:28 <sipa> krytzz: also the first 32 bit of the sha256 of version+ripemd160(sha256(pubkey))
2545 2011-04-13 20:56:36 <sipa> is appended to it, as checksum
2546 2011-04-13 20:56:49 <Necr0s> Is there pseudocode or similar around that describes mining?
2547 2011-04-13 20:56:56 <krytzz> ok thanks
2548 2011-04-13 20:57:07 <sipa> so bits 0-7 of an address are version, bits 8-167 are the pubkeyhash, bits 168-199 are the checksum

2583 2011-04-13 21:45:33 <grbgout> I like bash, I like C, and I like easy to follow. :)
2584 2011-04-13 21:47:27 <lfm> grbgout: Im not sure it works right yet actually but it should be close : http://www3.telus.net/millerlf/bashhashminer.tar.gz
2585 2011-04-13 21:47:48 <grbgout> sounds good, thanks
2586 2011-04-13 21:48:14 <jgarzik> grbgout: pyminer and cpuminer are small and pretty easy to follow
2587 2011-04-13 21:48:24 <grbgout> jgarzik: have those downloaded as well.
2588 2011-04-13 21:48:59 <sipa> what is typical on github? that you remove your own branches with finished and merged things in them?
2589 2011-04-13 21:49:13 <grbgout> I've resolved myself to not looking at any code until I've read the white paper, which I /still/ haven't done --- too many distractions :)
2590 2011-04-13 21:49:51 <BlueMatt> sipa: been wondering the same myself
2591 2011-04-13 21:50:02 <lfm> grbgout: its not that long a paper

2595 2011-04-13 21:50:11 <grbgout> lfm: I know, I've skimmed it.
2596 2011-04-13 21:50:22 <grbgout> Only 9 pages.
2597 2011-04-13 21:50:28 <gjs278> you could restore things even easier in svn
2598 2011-04-13 21:50:33 <gjs278> because you had actual revision numbers
2599 2011-04-13 21:50:35 agricocb has joined
2600 2011-04-13 21:50:43 <gjs278> you could just take a rough guess and find your file like magic
2601 2011-04-13 21:50:46 <grbgout> But the first thing I did was hit google for SHA256, and collected as many PDFs as I could muster in an evening.
2602 2011-04-13 21:50:57 <luke-jr> sipa: I personally rename them locally, and delete from publication
2603 2011-04-13 21:51:18 <sipa> locally, as in, on your own computer?
2604 2011-04-13 21:51:23 <luke-jr> yes
2605 2011-04-13 21:51:45 drazak has joined
2606 2011-04-13 21:51:51 <luke-jr> sipa: the difference is, that while Subversion just merged the branches as a big diff, git actually preserves the entire branch history in the merged tree
2607 2011-04-13 21:52:08 <jgarzik> sipa: yeah, I delete branches after they're merged.  Otherwise it becomes clutter.
2608 2011-04-13 21:52:30 * luke-jr has no trouble ignoring branches that start with MERGED_*
2609 2011-04-13 21:52:50 <gjs278> why keep them though... the entire point was to just write one feature
2610 2011-04-13 21:52:55 <gjs278> and get it into the main client
2611 2011-04-13 21:53:09 <sipa> you're probably right
2612 2011-04-13 21:53:17 <luke-jr> gjs278: shrug, why not?
2613 2011-04-13 21:53:18 <lfm> why keep any history
2614 2011-04-13 21:53:21 <luke-jr> plenty of disk space
2615 2011-04-13 21:53:24 <gjs278> more inodes
2616 2011-04-13 21:53:28 <luke-jr> gjs278: git gc
2617 2011-04-13 21:53:33 <sipa> the relevant part (the commits) are retained of course
2618 2011-04-13 21:53:38 <luke-jr> also, I've never run out of inodes
2619 2011-04-13 21:53:41 <gjs278> I have
2620 2011-04-13 21:53:43 <gjs278> on a netbsd install
2621 2011-04-13 21:53:45 <gjs278> with a 2gb hd
2622 2011-04-13 21:53:49 <luke-jr> and I intentionally cut the inode ratio on my HDs
2623 2011-04-13 21:53:56 <luke-jr> to like 1/16 of the default
2624 2011-04-13 21:54:09 <gjs278> give me your extra inodes if you're not using them
2625 2011-04-13 21:54:30 <sipa> use another filesystem :)
2626 2011-04-13 21:54:47 <luke-jr> wow: git gc just took 45 GB down to 3.7 GB
2627 2011-04-13 21:55:11 <grbgout> gc being garbage collection?
2628 2011-04-13 21:55:30 <gjs278> how did 45gb accumulate in the first place, what projects did it include

2676 2011-04-13 22:07:22 <gjs278> does it then add it to the git repo, and your computer fetches from them?
