1 2011-05-17 00:00:07 <Demandrel> I am stuck at 500 blocks...
   2 2011-05-17 00:00:41 <eamon> bitcoin is doing thousands and thousands of tiny writes
   3 2011-05-17 00:00:54 <eamon> there has to be a more hdd friendly way
   4 2011-05-17 00:00:56 <Diablo-D3> eamon: doesnt surprise me.
   5 2011-05-17 00:01:24 <Diablo-D3> its doing things in safe ways
   6 2011-05-17 00:01:31 <Diablo-D3> "hdd friendly" != "data safe"
   7 2011-05-17 00:02:15 <eamon> ok, but I want hdd friendly, I don't care if it means you have to do it differently
   8 2011-05-17 00:02:26 <Diablo-D3> eamon: I think you misunderstood
   9 2011-05-17 00:02:32 <Diablo-D3> data loss is bad.
  10 2011-05-17 00:02:34 <andrew12> eamon: it'll be more hdd friendly after it finishes downloading the block chain
  11 2011-05-17 00:02:51 <Saab-> is there any way to prevent bitcoin and other mining apps from using my ssd and make them use the regular hd?
  12 2011-05-17 00:03:06 <Saab-> for mac does bitcoin only use temp files iwhtin its own .app?
  13 2011-05-17 00:03:16 <Saab-> r is it putting stuff in application support or something
  14 2011-05-17 00:03:23 <comboy> btw, was there any idea to offer alternative client download with blockchain from say 2 weeks ago? it is indeed a bit of a pain for new users
  15 2011-05-17 00:03:27 <aschmitz> Saab-: Also ~/Library/Application Support/Bitcoin
  16 2011-05-17 00:03:32 <Diablo-D3> bitcoin is not a native mac app, Saab-
  17 2011-05-17 00:04:00 <Diablo-D3> feel free to file bug reports if its doing anything strange, it shouldnt write to stuff inside of bitcoin.app
  18 2011-05-17 00:04:22 <Diablo-D3> comboy: its been discussed
  19 2011-05-17 00:04:26 <Saab-> do you know where it does write stuff to the hd for the mac client?
  20 2011-05-17 00:04:27 <Diablo-D3> comboy: the issue isnt downloading the chain
  21 2011-05-17 00:04:38 <Diablo-D3> Saab-: to files inside your home dir.
  22 2011-05-17 00:04:48 <Saab-> ok thanks

  25 2011-05-17 00:05:26 <Saab-> would rather not have it hammering hte ssd if necessary, dont think there would be much of a speed increase anyway
  26 2011-05-17 00:05:46 <Diablo-D3> comboy: see, it currently downloads an index of the chain, and then all the entries... but its not farming out downloads for the entries (how, say, torrent farms out file blocks to multiple peers)
  27 2011-05-17 00:05:55 <Diablo-D3> comboy: instead of just keeps talking to the same peer
  28 2011-05-17 00:06:01 <andrew12> Saab-: to be specific, it writes them to ~/Library/Application Support/Bitcoin
  29 2011-05-17 00:06:14 <Diablo-D3> Saab-: no, the ssd would be faster
  30 2011-05-17 00:06:21 <andrew12> Saab-: It'll stop hammering the ssd once the block chain finishes downloading
  31 2011-05-17 00:06:28 testman has joined
  32 2011-05-17 00:06:55 <Saab-> maybe im being paranoid, just figured id save the ssd of all those writes because it is eventually limited in that aspect right?
  33 2011-05-17 00:07:01 <comboy> Diablo-D3: oh, I noticed that weirdness that I had only one connection when tried new installation lately until blockchain downloaded

  35 2011-05-17 00:07:14 <Diablo-D3> comboy: yeah, this COULD be handled better, its just not.
  36 2011-05-17 00:07:23 <eamon> Saab-: Isn't that the whole point of an SSD?
  37 2011-05-17 00:07:25 <multiHYP> why is the number of blocks not increasing anymore?
  38 2011-05-17 00:07:33 <andrew12> multiHYP: what is it at?
  39 2011-05-17 00:07:35 <testman> Hey all, does anyone have any plans to port a miner to XPI?
  40 2011-05-17 00:07:37 <multiHYP> it stopped shy from 100000
  41 2011-05-17 00:07:37 <Diablo-D3> multiHYP: it increases, on average, every 10 minutes.
  42 2011-05-17 00:07:38 <comboy> Diablo-D3: still, even if that's improved for most people it would be faster to have some solid chunk of blockchain downloaded with client

  56 2011-05-17 00:08:32 <Diablo-D3> I'd like to see optional downloads offered with, say, the first 100k blocks
  57 2011-05-17 00:09:09 <eamon> Isn't that insecure?
  58 2011-05-17 00:09:18 <comboy> as much as I hate such organizations in general, some kind of it to fund developers could be nice, these investing much in bitcoin care about it's usefullness and security, but possibly have no idea who could they donate to
  59 2011-05-17 00:09:27 <Diablo-D3> eamon: no. I said first 100k.
  60 2011-05-17 00:09:33 <comboy> Diablo-D3: exactly that, that would be great
  61 2011-05-17 00:09:42 <multiHYP> this is going to screw up my harddrive :s

  66 2011-05-17 00:10:24 <Diablo-D3> multiHYP: dude, its not going to screw up anything
  67 2011-05-17 00:10:33 <comboy> multiHYP:  oh c'mon, it's just hdd, you're gonna screw much more hardware once you started playing with bitcoins ;)
  68 2011-05-17 00:10:34 <Diablo-D3> multiHYP: if you dont like it, blame berkeley bd
  69 2011-05-17 00:10:55 <eamon> Diablo-D3: I see.
  70 2011-05-17 00:10:57 <multiHYP> thats the thing, my dissertation is due in a month
  71 2011-05-17 00:11:09 <Diablo-D3> multiHYP: and why arent you regularly backing up shit?
  72 2011-05-17 00:11:09 <multiHYP> so if my harddrive is screwed my degree is too :D
  73 2011-05-17 00:11:23 <Diablo-D3> like, did you see the fml about the guy who his kid brother deleted the book hes been writing for the past 3 years?
  74 2011-05-17 00:11:29 <multiHYP> i do, except my 1 TB drive is full of movies already
  75 2011-05-17 00:11:40 <Diablo-D3> _backup your shit regularly people_
  76 2011-05-17 00:11:41 <multiHYP> so the computer's drive is left
  77 2011-05-17 00:11:46 <multiHYP> :D
  78 2011-05-17 00:11:46 <Diablo-D3> multiHYP: thats no excuse.
  79 2011-05-17 00:11:52 <Diablo-D3> a "backup" means EVERYTHING
  80 2011-05-17 00:12:01 <Diablo-D3> a 1TB drive of movies is not a backup.
  81 2011-05-17 00:12:10 <comboy> there's only way to learn this ;)
  82 2011-05-17 00:12:10 <Diablo-D3> a backup of the 1TB drive of movies is a backup.
  83 2011-05-17 00:12:20 <Diablo-D3> comboy: sigh, everyone has to learn this once.
  84 2011-05-17 00:14:10 <Diablo-D3> I mean, shit, if you google "archival dvd", my blog is in the first fucking page.

  86 2011-05-17 00:14:19 <plato_> what would have to happen if we needed to have smaller units of account than satoshis
  87 2011-05-17 00:14:44 <Diablo-D3> this IS rocket science, and I did your homework for you.
  88 2011-05-17 00:15:50 <Diablo-D3> plato_: ... dear god, if we need units smaller than satoshis, WE'RE ALL RICH
  89 2011-05-17 00:16:31 <Diablo-D3> plato_: we'd need need an extension to the protocol essentially
  90 2011-05-17 00:16:51 <Diablo-D3> every client would have to support it, and it'd need to be in place in all clients 2 years before we turn it on
  91 2011-05-17 00:17:19 jmorton has quit (Quit: leaving)
  92 2011-05-17 00:17:46 <Diablo-D3> it'd require clients to support, say, 2 longs for the money fields in txes
  93 2011-05-17 00:17:49 <plato_> Diablo-D3: so, there's a   "ver":1,  string in the blocks
  94 2011-05-17 00:17:51 <Diablo-D3> instead of just 1
  95 2011-05-17 00:17:58 <plato_> that'd change?
  96 2011-05-17 00:18:04 <Diablo-D3> plato_: I dont think theres a ver string at all
  97 2011-05-17 00:18:11 <Diablo-D3> if there is, it'd make shit so much easier
  98 2011-05-17 00:18:11 <plato_> http://blockexplorer.com/rawblock/0000000000000ff80840db6df59117f3ae586c91faf19bcfa16e57ccdca5d657
  99 2011-05-17 00:18:12 <comboy> about protocol, I hate the look that I'll be getting from ArtForz now, but what do you think if at some block in the future protocol was changed in the way that few different type of hashes would be used at once? it would make it safe even if sha would be exploited somehow
 100 2011-05-17 00:18:20 <Diablo-D3> huh.
 101 2011-05-17 00:18:24 <Diablo-D3> plato_: this I did not know.
 102 2011-05-17 00:18:27 <Diablo-D3> and Ive been here forever
 103 2011-05-17 00:18:34 <plato_> heh
 104 2011-05-17 00:18:43 <Diablo-D3> I never looked at the block format, to be honest.
 105 2011-05-17 00:18:53 <plato_> i'm polishing my guns for the 'what should we call 0.001 bitcoins' thread

 108 2011-05-17 00:19:20 <plato_> i'm pointing out that if we start using SI prefixes counting down from 1btc, it's incompatible from using SI prefixes counting up from 1 satoshi
 109 2011-05-17 00:19:26 <Diablo-D3> plato_: below 0.01 we just refer to it as satoshi really
 110 2011-05-17 00:19:41 <Diablo-D3> well, I was calling satoshi ubtc for awhile
 111 2011-05-17 00:25:24 <luke-jr> plato_: smaller than Satoshi is about as difficult as more than 50 BTC per block reward
 112 2011-05-17 00:25:58 <Diablo-D3> luke-jr: ...
 113 2011-05-17 00:26:05 <Diablo-D3> Im not sure if you tried to imply thats hard or not
 114 2011-05-17 00:26:27 <Diablo-D3> 1 satoshi == 1, as described by 1 in a long integer.

 116 2011-05-17 00:26:49 <ericools> how about .01 being a Megatoshi and .0001 being a Kilotoshi
 117 2011-05-17 00:26:53 <luke-jr> it "only" requires everyone on the network agree to upgrade to a new protocol

 121 2011-05-17 00:28:54 <Diablo-D3> which is what I said
 122 2011-05-17 00:29:01 <Diablo-D3> and it'd need to be done about 2 years before we need it
 123 2011-05-17 00:29:22 <Diablo-D3> because if we NEED microtoshis, then we've hit the point that a single BTC is worth more than you make in a year.
 124 2011-05-17 00:29:31 <Diablo-D3> and ... I just... I dunno man

 204 2011-05-17 01:30:45 <Raccoon> hmm, here's an idea
 205 2011-05-17 01:31:18 peck has joined
 206 2011-05-17 01:31:31 <Raccoon> what if we could attach metadata to bitcoin transactions, to piggyback the existing P2P destination-finding network created by Bitcoin
 207 2011-05-17 01:31:35 geeeeek has joined
 208 2011-05-17 01:31:40 <Raccoon> so we can send encrypted messages.
 209 2011-05-17 01:31:50 <Raccoon> charge a fee per message length
 210 2011-05-17 01:32:17 <Raccoon> the message need not necessarily be stored in the Blocks, maybe?
 211 2011-05-17 01:33:43 <bd_> bitcoin is a terrible network to use for sending messages
 212 2011-05-17 01:33:48 LA9KSA has joined
 213 2011-05-17 01:33:53 <bd_> why not just make a dead-simple broadcast network?
 214 2011-05-17 01:34:07 <z310> indeed
 215 2011-05-17 01:34:08 <bd_> if you need some degree of persistence, use kademlia or something
 216 2011-05-17 01:34:15 <z310> there's no reason to add that
 217 2011-05-17 01:34:20 <z310> sounds only like bloat

 219 2011-05-17 01:34:26 <bd_> well, I mean, you _could_ do it
 220 2011-05-17 01:34:36 <bd_> it's just that the messages would become part of the block chain and remain there forever
 221 2011-05-17 01:34:51 <bd_> which is just silly, why would you need that?

 223 2011-05-17 01:35:47 <da2ce7> ^ Bitcoin IPC... for network...
 224 2011-05-17 01:35:55 <da2ce7> we need to design the proticol
 225 2011-05-17 01:36:04 <bd_> block/tx may be a bit low level
 226 2011-05-17 01:36:12 <bd_> well, maybe not for freenet bridges
 227 2011-05-17 01:36:20 <bd_> but you'd really want a wallet abstraction above that
 228 2011-05-17 01:36:32 <da2ce7> bd_ of course
 229 2011-05-17 01:36:57 <bd_> I actually sketched something like that a while ago, but never bothered to really take it further: https://gist.github.com/845271

 233 2011-05-17 01:39:36 <da2ce7> bd_ looks cool... I was thinking of using Google's Protocol Buffers]
 234 2011-05-17 01:39:48 <bd_> da2ce7: I didn't bother specifying the transport protocol :)
 235 2011-05-17 01:39:58 <bd_> So yes, protocol buffers would be one way to encode this protocol
 236 2011-05-17 01:40:18 <bd_> but you need to decide the scope of each API layer first; that's the most important part
 237 2011-05-17 01:40:28 <da2ce7> and only having a very limited interface that deals with only the data that 'needs' to be transferd bewteen nodes.
 238 2011-05-17 01:41:10 <bd_> well, the way I see it, you have several layers of participants here:
 239 2011-05-17 01:41:34 <bd_> 1) Generators. These nodes need the full block chain in order to verify transactions and issue new blocks. They speak the current bitcoin protocol (or something similar)
 240 2011-05-17 01:42:07 <scottttt> anyone buying or selling
 241 2011-05-17 01:42:08 <bd_> 2) Gateways. These nodes speak the bitcoin protocol, but don't generate blocks. Their job is gating transactions to and from the core network, as well as responding to queries (including historical queries) to external hosts

 245 2011-05-17 01:43:06 <bd_> 3) Wallets. These participants don't have a full block record and are thus incapable of verifying transactions themselves; they rely on gateways to do this (the paranoid may run their own gateway locally). However, they maintain a database of private keys and can commit to new transactions, which are sent to a gateway to be introduced to the network
 246 2011-05-17 01:43:16 <luke-jr> da2ce7: bd_: https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Wallet_protocol
 247 2011-05-17 01:43:38 <bd_> 4) Clients. These are thin GUIs above a wallet; they don't maintain the core wallet keys themselves, but instead farm off the details to the wallet server. Ideal for mobile devices, etc.
 248 2011-05-17 01:44:15 <Raccoon> re: bitcoin messages
 249 2011-05-17 01:44:38 <Raccoon> the problem with creating an independent network purely for message sending, is raising its popularity to the level of bitcoin.
 250 2011-05-17 01:44:57 <Raccoon> a good 'anonymous network' requires thousands if not millions of users.
 251 2011-05-17 01:45:04 <Raccoon> can't just have 2 people running it.
 252 2011-05-17 01:45:08 <bd_> luke-jr: The thing I don't like about that protocol is it doesn't provide a clear distinction between miners, gateways, and wallets
 253 2011-05-17 01:45:11 <da2ce7> luke-jr, the wallet proticol is on the other side...
 254 2011-05-17 01:45:33 <bd_> I could see someone wanting to run a website that works with bitcoins; they may be able to run their own wallet, but don't want to have to deal with the full block chain verification
 255 2011-05-17 01:45:35 <luke-jr> bd_: that page is for the concept. the draft is just that.
 256 2011-05-17 01:45:51 <Raccoon> bd_: isn't there already one like that?
 257 2011-05-17 01:45:52 <bd_> Thus, ideally they should be able to just download transactions of interest to themselves, and upload raw transactions to the network
 258 2011-05-17 01:45:52 <luke-jr> bd_: and in both cases, there is such a clear distinction
 259 2011-05-17 01:45:59 <bd_> Raccoon: Maybe. I haven't been paying attention :)
 260 2011-05-17 01:46:09 <Raccoon> i think it's mentioned on the main bitcoin.org page
 261 2011-05-17 01:46:21 <bd_> well, if it's implemented, nevermind then :)
 262 2011-05-17 01:46:30 <Raccoon> i haven't looked into it myself
 263 2011-05-17 01:46:34 <bd_> Raccoon: Use i2p if you want anonymous messaging
 264 2011-05-17 01:46:43 <bd_> Or freenet for that matter
 265 2011-05-17 01:46:48 * Raccoon looks up i2p
 266 2011-05-17 01:46:52 <bd_> or gnunet
 267 2011-05-17 01:47:00 <bd_> they're both much better suited to transient messaging than bitcoin
 268 2011-05-17 01:47:03 <Raccoon> all these things are laggy though, are they not?
 269 2011-05-17 01:47:07 <Raccoon> eg, TOR
 270 2011-05-17 01:47:32 <bd_> Raccoon: tor and i2p are a LOT faster than bitcoin's worst case
 271 2011-05-17 01:47:44 <Raccoon> huh.
 272 2011-05-17 01:47:49 <bd_> they also provide better anonymity
 273 2011-05-17 01:47:52 vorlov_ has joined
 274 2011-05-17 01:47:58 <bd_> bitcoin has exactly ZERO protection against traffic analysis
 275 2011-05-17 01:48:08 <Raccoon> yet :P
 276 2011-05-17 01:48:22 <bd_> Ever.
 277 2011-05-17 01:48:38 <Raccoon> traffic isn't even SSL?
 278 2011-05-17 01:48:51 <bd_> The bitcoin network is not for anonymity. Period. You can use it as a building block for an anonymous money transfer system. But it isn't it.
 279 2011-05-17 01:48:54 <bd_> Raccoon: It doesn't need to be.
 280 2011-05-17 01:49:06 <bd_> What can anyone do?
 281 2011-05-17 01:49:09 <Raccoon> SSL prevents against basic packet shaping
 282 2011-05-17 01:49:14 <da2ce7> luke-jr, bd_, updated.
 283 2011-05-17 01:49:15 <da2ce7> http://www.bitcoinservice.co.uk/files/867
 284 2011-05-17 01:49:24 <bd_> Eve can... see what transaction you made. But so can anyone else, because it's broadcasted.
 285 2011-05-17 01:49:28 <hyperjacker> why is that when i tried the proxy setting it wont even attempt to connect?
 286 2011-05-17 01:49:37 <bd_> Mallory can... block your transaction. But he could with SSL anyway, just drop packets.

 290 2011-05-17 01:49:55 <bd_> So you don't need SSL - it doesn't give you any security
 291 2011-05-17 01:49:58 <Raccoon> with SSL, he'd have to drop ALL packets
 292 2011-05-17 01:50:08 <bd_> Raccoon: Uh, no, that's not what SSL protects against
 293 2011-05-17 01:50:15 <bd_> it's trivially easy for mallory to kill a SSL session
 294 2011-05-17 01:50:19 <bd_> he just injects a corrupt packet in
 295 2011-05-17 01:50:19 <Raccoon> not knowing which are bitcoin and which are www.bankofamerica.com
 296 2011-05-17 01:50:28 <bd_> SSL thinks this is a forgery and drops the connection
 297 2011-05-17 01:50:35 <bd_> Raccoon: Er? What attack are you conceiving?
 298 2011-05-17 01:50:49 <bd_> bankofamerica.com doesn't speak the bitcoin protocol.
 299 2011-05-17 01:50:51 <Raccoon> you're talking about interrupting an SSL session
 300 2011-05-17 01:51:09 <bd_> Yes. I'm saying, the transactions and blocks have, built in, nonrepudiation.
 301 2011-05-17 01:51:10 <Raccoon> why would Malroy
 302 2011-05-17 01:51:23 <bd_> So Mallory can't mess with their contents
 303 2011-05-17 01:51:33 <Raccoon> at least with SSL, it's difficult to scrape a packet and analyze the network for identical packets
 304 2011-05-17 01:51:33 <bd_> He can block their transmission, but Mallory is assumed to have this ability anyway
 305 2011-05-17 01:51:51 <Raccoon> who cares if he can
 306 2011-05-17 01:51:59 <Raccoon> anyone with a paperclip on an ethernet cable can.
 307 2011-05-17 01:52:03 <bd_> Raccoon: No, but you can see that the user sent a message to all of their peers at at time X, and at time X+smallvalue all of their peers forwarded the same transaction
 308 2011-05-17 01:52:22 <Raccoon> i'm talking about traffic analysis
 309 2011-05-17 01:52:27 <Raccoon> not DDoS
 310 2011-05-17 01:52:28 <hyperjacker> why cant i point the bitcoin client at a proxy?
 311 2011-05-17 01:52:36 <bd_> Raccoon: I'm not talking about DDoS either.
 312 2011-05-17 01:52:44 <Raccoon> and no
 313 2011-05-17 01:52:47 <hyperjacker> when i try it wont connect at all
 314 2011-05-17 01:52:47 <bd_> So here's the thing:
 315 2011-05-17 01:52:53 <bd_> Bitcoin is a broadcast network
 316 2011-05-17 01:52:53 <Raccoon> you can't see that ANYONE forwarded the same transaction
 317 2011-05-17 01:52:59 <bd_> When you make a transaction, it is sent to EVERYONE
 318 2011-05-17 01:52:59 <Raccoon> the transaction is different from each peer
 319 2011-05-17 01:53:02 <Raccoon> doy
 320 2011-05-17 01:53:07 <Raccoon> SSL
 321 2011-05-17 01:53:16 <bd_> It is exactly the same transaction, as well. This is vital for bitcoin to work properly. It cannot be changed.
 322 2011-05-17 01:53:19 <Raccoon> each 'everyone' gets a different SSL encrypted packet
 323 2011-05-17 01:53:24 <Raccoon> you can't see what's beneath
 324 2011-05-17 01:53:28 <bd_> Now, let's look at this scenario:
 325 2011-05-17 01:53:29 <Raccoon> so all data looks unique
 326 2011-05-17 01:53:35 vorlov has quit (Read error: Connection reset by peer)
 327 2011-05-17 01:53:45 <Raccoon> it's the individual packet uniqueness that adds a layer of anonymity
 328 2011-05-17 01:53:45 <bd_> 1) The FBI connects to you, via SSL. Your bitcoin client accepts the connection and forwards your transactions. Oops.
 329 2011-05-17 01:54:10 <Raccoon> you can't trace the packet route any further than 1 peer
 330 2011-05-17 01:54:10 <Diablo-D3> bd_: over tor? :D
 331 2011-05-17 01:54:15 <Raccoon> because of SSL
 332 2011-05-17 01:54:16 redsai has quit (Ping timeout: 252 seconds)
 333 2011-05-17 01:54:23 <Diablo-D3> Raccoon: not true
 334 2011-05-17 01:54:29 <bd_> 2) Your client is configured to connect to only trusted peers. So the FBI monitors _when_ you send data out, and also connects to all of your peers. They see a burst of encrypted data, then a transaction coming out of all of your peers shortly after. It's probably the txn you sent.
 335 2011-05-17 01:54:29 <Diablo-D3> its the "router blinking lights" problem

 337 2011-05-17 01:54:35 <Diablo-D3> you'd need significant tx traffic to cover it up
 338 2011-05-17 01:54:41 scottttt has quit (Quit: Page closed)
 339 2011-05-17 01:54:43 <Diablo-D3> bd just covered it
 340 2011-05-17 01:54:55 <hyperjacker> how long does it take the client to reconnect?
 341 2011-05-17 01:55:01 <bd_> Raccoon: So to protect this you need to have cover traffic. This is outside of bitcoin's design goals and will never be implemented on the core network. Just run bitcoin protocol over i2p or tor or something.
 342 2011-05-17 01:55:02 <Raccoon> bd_, how many packets a second are we talking about.
 343 2011-05-17 01:55:12 <Raccoon> after a few hops, it gets conjested
 344 2011-05-17 01:55:30 <Raccoon> why make it easier by not using SSL
 345 2011-05-17 01:55:35 <bd_> Raccoon: With bitcoin's current level of traffic, you could probably get quite reliable results a few hops out
 346 2011-05-17 01:55:44 <bd_> and again, this is outside of bitcoin's design scopr
 347 2011-05-17 01:55:44 <Raccoon> as it stands
 348 2011-05-17 01:55:51 <bd_> bitcoin is not an anonymity network
 349 2011-05-17 01:55:54 <CIA-103> bitcoin: Jeff Garzik * rd4e133a132e5 pushpool/server.c: Enable TCP keepalives on client sockets. http://tinyurl.com/64a89zf
 350 2011-05-17 01:56:06 <bd_> I really wish people would stop calling it that too. It has really, really poor anonymity by itself.
 351 2011-05-17 01:56:10 <Raccoon> a Sprint switch in California can match a packet against an ATT switch in New York (logged traffic), because it's clear.
 352 2011-05-17 01:56:19 <Raccoon> without any live monitoring
 353 2011-05-17 01:56:21 <bd_> Raccoon: I'm not talking about matching the content of packets here.
 354 2011-05-17 01:56:24 <Raccoon> I am.
 355 2011-05-17 01:56:27 DukeOfURL has quit (Ping timeout: 246 seconds)
 356 2011-05-17 01:56:28 <bd_> I'm only talking about monitoring when you transmit
 357 2011-05-17 01:56:31 <Raccoon> and packet contents match without SSL
 358 2011-05-17 01:56:39 <Raccoon> so that is the obvious attack to use
 359 2011-05-17 01:56:45 <Raccoon> just compare logs
 360 2011-05-17 01:57:27 <bd_> Raccoon: So, here's the other question. Let's say we're using SSL. Fine. Who are you talking to?
 361 2011-05-17 01:57:29 <Raccoon> or hell, grep all packets for specific addresses
 362 2011-05-17 01:57:36 <Raccoon> since they're clear
 363 2011-05-17 01:57:37 <bd_> SSL is all about knowing who you're talking to, so mallory can't MITM you.
 364 2011-05-17 01:57:44 <bd_> But bitcoin connects out to, literally, random people.
 365 2011-05-17 01:57:51 <bd_> Why can't $enemy just connect to you directly?
 366 2011-05-17 01:57:56 <Raccoon> bd_, that's fine
 367 2011-05-17 01:58:12 <Raccoon> but $enemy has to find you first
 368 2011-05-17 01:58:22 <Raccoon> with clear packets 20 hops away, they can back track you
 369 2011-05-17 01:58:31 <bd_> Raccoon: Or they can simply connect to every bitcoin node
 370 2011-05-17 01:58:33 <Raccoon> casually
 371 2011-05-17 01:58:36 <Raccoon> yeah
 372 2011-05-17 01:58:38 <Raccoon> that's gonna happen
 373 2011-05-17 01:58:41 <Raccoon> suure
 374 2011-05-17 01:58:43 <bd_> Raccoon: It's easy, really.
 375 2011-05-17 01:58:49 <bd_> get a handful of EC2 nodes
 376 2011-05-17 01:58:54 <Raccoon> why not connect to every bittorrent client
 377 2011-05-17 01:58:54 <bd_> don't forward txns yourself
 378 2011-05-17 01:58:58 <bd_> connect to every client
 379 2011-05-17 01:59:01 <bd_> easy stuff.
 380 2011-05-17 01:59:04 <bd_> seriously.
 381 2011-05-17 01:59:25 <bd_> My point is, and let me make this absolutely clear:
 382 2011-05-17 01:59:52 <bd_> * SSL protects against exactly one attack: An after-the-fact search of transaction hashes in monitoring devices attached to core routers
 383 2011-05-17 02:00:09 <Raccoon> that is exactly the attack i think needs to be hindered.
 384 2011-05-17 02:00:16 <bd_> * SSL does not protect against: Transaction source/destination correlation; traffic analysis; malicious peer attacks
 385 2011-05-17 02:00:20 <Raccoon> logging of transactions for searches
 386 2011-05-17 02:00:35 <bd_> These latter attacks are _much_ easier to carry out than the attack you propose
 387 2011-05-17 02:00:39 <bd_> so you get zero security
 388 2011-05-17 02:00:42 <Raccoon> which is what we do with email
 389 2011-05-17 02:00:45 <bd_> and you make things more complex
 390 2011-05-17 02:01:01 <bd_> The reason SSL works for e-commerce and email is you know who you're talking to
 391 2011-05-17 02:01:10 <bd_> Therefore, you can verify you're not talking to someone else
 392 2011-05-17 02:01:15 <Raccoon> email isn't encrypted
 393 2011-05-17 02:01:19 <bd_> The reason it doesn't work for bitcoin is you're talking to everyone. Inherently.
 394 2011-05-17 02:01:35 <Raccoon> at least not end-to-end
 395 2011-05-17 02:01:37 <bd_> Raccoon: okay, X.509 certificates with encryption for email, fine
 396 2011-05-17 02:01:41 <bd_> close eough
 397 2011-05-17 02:01:44 <Raccoon> not really

 400 2011-05-17 02:02:03 <bd_> Raccoon: Yes, really. X.509 encryption with email, although rarely used in fact, will give you end-to-end encryption for emails
 401 2011-05-17 02:02:09 <bd_> PGP will do the same
 402 2011-05-17 02:02:13 <sneak> bd_: so will PGP, and it's not rarely used
 403 2011-05-17 02:02:17 <bd_> point is, the common thread is you know who you're talking to
 404 2011-05-17 02:02:29 vorlov has joined
 405 2011-05-17 02:02:29 <bd_> with bitcoin, you talk to everyone
 406 2011-05-17 02:02:34 <sneak> there's no point in encrypting if you don't know who you're talking to
 407 2011-05-17 02:02:38 <bd_> point-to-point encryption will not help you here, at all
 408 2011-05-17 02:02:47 <bd_> What you really need is to just mask the source of the data
 409 2011-05-17 02:02:50 bitcoiner has quit (Ping timeout: 276 seconds)
 410 2011-05-17 02:02:55 <bd_> This requires more than just point-to-point encryption
 411 2011-05-17 02:03:02 <bd_> it requires onion routing through a mixnet with cover traffic
 412 2011-05-17 02:03:09 <bd_> Bitcoin does not do this, nor should it do this
 413 2011-05-17 02:03:10 <Raccoon> it keeps Mallroy from hearing you scream BITCOIN in a crowded room.
 414 2011-05-17 02:03:16 <bd_> i2p and tor have already solved this problem
 415 2011-05-17 02:03:24 <Raccoon> instead all he hears is HAMSTER and shrugs it off

 420 2011-05-17 02:04:00 <bd_> Raccoon: So now we want a darknet.
 421 2011-05-17 02:04:08 <Raccoon> or a direct peer?
 422 2011-05-17 02:04:13 <Raccoon> remember.  decentralized
 423 2011-05-17 02:04:18 <bd_> Okay. Now how do you keep your darknet graph a secret?
 424 2011-05-17 02:04:33 <Raccoon> what about a local network gateway?
 425 2011-05-17 02:04:40 <Raccoon> magnet exchange
 426 2011-05-17 02:04:43 <Raccoon> whatever
 427 2011-05-17 02:04:46 <bd_> Raccoon: if you're on a local network the $enemy will target your gateway
 428 2011-05-17 02:04:54 <bd_> anyway, my point is
 429 2011-05-17 02:05:01 <bd_> all of these problems have been solved by i2p and tor
 430 2011-05-17 02:05:10 <Raccoon> can bitcoin be used over those?
 431 2011-05-17 02:05:15 <bd_> Sure, in principle.
 432 2011-05-17 02:05:19 <Raccoon> today?
 433 2011-05-17 02:05:36 <bd_> Tor, yes, with at most a few minutes' work
 434 2011-05-17 02:05:45 <bd_> i2p, yes, with at most a few hours' work
 435 2011-05-17 02:05:54 <Raccoon> with a windows binary that was compiled prior to Mon May 16 19:58:59 2011 ?
 436 2011-05-17 02:06:04 <bd_> Raccoon: Good luck getting SSL to work with that! :)
 437 2011-05-17 02:06:10 mmoya has joined
 438 2011-05-17 02:06:14 <bd_> point is, it's easier to implement than SSL, and it's _more secure than SSL_
 439 2011-05-17 02:06:29 <Raccoon> alright.

 446 2011-05-17 02:09:20 <bd_> Raccoon: Every transaction, as you know, references some set of prior transactions, and typically has two outputs: One will be your payment, and one will be your 'change'
 447 2011-05-17 02:09:33 <bd_> If you trace the history of the 'change', you can identify patterns
 448 2011-05-17 02:09:41 <bd_> This is a lot easier if people reuse receiving addresses
 449 2011-05-17 02:10:27 <bd_> it's unclear exactly how much information can be extracted from this; however, if you send someone some bitcoins, wait a bit, then have them pay you, you can try to trace the shortest path between those two points, for exampl
 450 2011-05-17 02:10:31 <bd_> e
 451 2011-05-17 02:10:33 <bd_> and grab all the transactions in between
 452 2011-05-17 02:12:15 virgil_ has joined
 453 2011-05-17 02:13:05 <Raccoon> that's something else i was thinking about.
 454 2011-05-17 02:13:21 <Raccoon> it would be neat if the bitcoin wallet would only spend the oldest bitcoins first
 455 2011-05-17 02:13:29 <Raccoon> or allow you to put bitcoins "on ice"
 456 2011-05-17 02:13:49 <Raccoon> that way transactions aren't quite as speedily "turned around"
 457 2011-05-17 02:13:59 <bd_> fast turnaroud might actually be a good thing
 458 2011-05-17 02:14:11 <Raccoon> eh?
 459 2011-05-17 02:14:22 <bd_> the region they can reliably trace is the region between when you received the tracer coins, and when you made the last payment based on them
 460 2011-05-17 02:14:32 <bd_> or, alternately, when you pay their tracer account
 461 2011-05-17 02:14:40 <bd_> if you were to receive 1 BTC from $enemy today
 462 2011-05-17 02:14:51 <bd_> three years later give then 1 BTC (they're under a different name ofc)
 463 2011-05-17 02:15:10 zq has quit (Ping timeout: 252 seconds)
 464 2011-05-17 02:15:10 <bd_> then they can try to trace the entire history between those two events, by taking the shortest path through the transaction graph
 465 2011-05-17 02:15:15 <Raccoon> imagine if you had two bitcoin wallets.  one for sending/receiving with Group A, and one for sending/receiving with Group B.  You would never send/receive between those two wallets, thereby never connecting Group A to Group B
 466 2011-05-17 02:15:26 <Raccoon> something like that would be kind of nice.
 467 2011-05-17 02:15:27 <bd_> right, separate wallets is a good idea certainly
 468 2011-05-17 02:15:42 <bd_> then the question is how to transfer funds
 469 2011-05-17 02:15:52 <Raccoon> and i think at the very least, allowing coins to "cool down" is a small step toward that.
 470 2011-05-17 02:16:05 <bd_> and again, cooling down might make things worse :)
 471 2011-05-17 02:16:06 <Raccoon> it at least masks what your immediate dealings are
 472 2011-05-17 02:16:20 <bd_> that said
 473 2011-05-17 02:16:37 <bd_> also keep in mind that once you start intentionally trying to hide transaction history, money laundering statutes may come into play
 474 2011-05-17 02:16:49 <Raccoon> not if the client plays that way to begin with
 475 2011-05-17 02:17:12 <bd_> It's all about intent. If you chose that client for that reason...
 476 2011-05-17 02:17:30 <Raccoon> 'its the only client'
 477 2011-05-17 02:17:42 <bd_> except it won't be for long :)
 478 2011-05-17 02:17:43 <Raccoon> i suggest that as a core feature
 479 2011-05-17 02:18:04 <Raccoon> i don't know how the wallet behaves right now
 480 2011-05-17 02:18:14 <Raccoon> does it spend out most recent or oldest coins first?
 481 2011-05-17 02:18:18 <bd_> except that you can't force any client to implement any specific such functionality
 482 2011-05-17 02:18:33 theymos has joined
 483 2011-05-17 02:19:43 <Raccoon> it should be a client option.
 484 2011-05-17 02:19:55 <bd_> Raccoon: it's currently random
 485 2011-05-17 02:19:56 <Raccoon> 'spend oldest coins first'.  'spend coins with fewest number of addresses'
 486 2011-05-17 02:20:12 <Raccoon> 'spend exact matching amounts first'
 487 2011-05-17 02:20:20 <Raccoon> 'spend this address'
 488 2011-05-17 02:20:22 <bd_> Raccoon: What makes you think any of those options will be more secure? :)
 489 2011-05-17 02:20:31 <bd_> You can't just guess here.
 490 2011-05-17 02:20:32 <Raccoon> it lets you choose the path
 491 2011-05-17 02:20:38 <Raccoon> so you know what you get
 492 2011-05-17 02:20:47 <bd_> spend exact matching amounts first = now they know which txn was change for the previous txn
 493 2011-05-17 02:20:50 <theymos> sirius: IP detection is broken on the forum. I had to disable the 5 second post limit per IP because everyone is seen as being from the same "unknown" IP.
 494 2011-05-17 02:20:53 <bd_> (to a high degree of confidence)
 495 2011-05-17 02:21:12 <Raccoon> bd_.  again, it may be desirable, it may not be.
 496 2011-05-17 02:21:19 <bd_> spend oldest coins first = high mixrate _within your wallet_, making it potentially easier to trace
 497 2011-05-17 02:21:38 <Raccoon> actually, high mixrate is from spending too many addresses in one tx
 498 2011-05-17 02:21:40 <bd_> spend coins w/ fewest number of addresses -- is this talking about txouts or txins?
 499 2011-05-17 02:21:57 <Raccoon> which is why i suggested that 'spend exact'
 500 2011-05-17 02:21:57 Maccer has quit ()
 501 2011-05-17 02:22:14 <bd_> Raccoon: spend oldest first will continually turn old coins into new coins (change). This rotation will act to mix the histories of all the coins in your wallet
 502 2011-05-17 02:22:21 <bd_> And will likely be visible in history
 503 2011-05-17 02:22:31 <Raccoon> as long as that mix is mixed
 504 2011-05-17 02:23:01 <Raccoon> the more mix in the network as a whole, the better
 505 2011-05-17 02:23:19 <bd_> Mixing within your own wallet only worsens your security
 506 2011-05-17 02:23:24 <Raccoon> no
 507 2011-05-17 02:23:25 <bd_> mixing with other people's coins - this is useful
 508 2011-05-17 02:23:33 <Raccoon> because you are blending old with new paths
 509 2011-05-17 02:23:35 <bd_> mixing within your own wallet eliminates isolation between your own coins
 510 2011-05-17 02:23:53 <Raccoon> why would you prefer spending most recent
 511 2011-05-17 02:23:58 <Raccoon> over spending least recent
 512 2011-05-17 02:24:35 <bd_> Raccoon: As I mentioned before, if the attacker can identify two transactions that were definitively to or from your wallet, they can trace your wallet activity by taking the shortest path between those two nodes in the txn graph
 513 2011-05-17 02:25:05 <bd_> the more txns between those two marker transactions, the more transactions will be revealed to the attacker
 514 2011-05-17 02:25:25 <bd_> If you use oldest first, you will have the effect of mixing all of your coins together, creating a path through them all
 515 2011-05-17 02:26:06 <bd_> If you use newest first, you have a chance of eliminating coins from the trace by spending them before they mix with older marker transactions
 516 2011-05-17 02:26:12 <bd_> It's not certain, of course.

 579 2011-05-17 03:27:42 <wolfman2k11> How does it work exactly? I mean, do I buy them or... I mean, I read through the faq's and whatnot, but I guess I feel I'm still missing something..
 580 2011-05-17 03:27:50 mesees has joined
 581 2011-05-17 03:27:59 <Nesetalis> its.. currency.. you earn them, buy in to it, or steal it :p
 582 2011-05-17 03:28:10 <Nesetalis> or.. if you have alot of processing power, you can mine
 583 2011-05-17 03:28:23 <wolfman2k11> I see... how do you earn them? via the open source program?
 584 2011-05-17 03:29:05 <wolfman2k11> I have a 2.4 GHz AMD Turion 2 Ultra with an ATI Radeon 4650 HD card
 585 2011-05-17 03:29:45 <ntosme2> wolfman2k11: unfortunately that won't be very useful for this application
 586 2011-05-17 03:29:46 <Nesetalis> earn them by doing work for some one who wants to pay you in bitcoin? :p
 587 2011-05-17 03:30:10 <wolfman2k11> I see... makes sense
 588 2011-05-17 03:30:50 <wolfman2k11> @ ntosme: what do u mean? how so?
 589 2011-05-17 03:30:53 <Nesetalis> i've made a few bitcoins mining.. but it's not efficient unless you haev a newer radeon card.. 5900~ are good

 636 2011-05-17 03:59:07 <io_error> Someone had better start testnet mining then :)
 637 2011-05-17 03:59:09 <sacarlson> io_error: maybe this git reset the -testnet again?
 638 2011-05-17 03:59:36 <LobsterMan> do ALL transactions have a .01 fee now?
 639 2011-05-17 03:59:36 <io_error> I think if testnet had been reset, that bitcoin would be complaining very loudly

 652 2011-05-17 04:03:05 <Ctylersmith> well, as a layman, I was actually looking for a validation as to why the code works and doesn't have huge glaring inherent flaws [all code is flawed, I'm just trying to understand why it works good enough]

 666 2011-05-17 04:07:57 <io_error> sacarlson: but the latest release works?
 667 2011-05-17 04:08:11 <io_error> maybe time to git bisect
 668 2011-05-17 04:08:21 <Ctylersmith> io_error: Indeed, that is true, my field of expertise certainly proves that true.  I'm having a talented C++ friend of mine check through the code and validate/invalidate some of my concerns.  I was just passing the time seeing if anyone else had any useful insight.
 669 2011-05-17 04:08:43 <sacarlson> io_error: I assume it does the git version is above release and has had alot of changes the last 5 days
 670 2011-05-17 04:09:00 <io_error> Ctylersmith: It would be nice if your friend shared his findings, e.g. on the bitcoin forum :)
 671 2011-05-17 04:09:20 <io_error> sacarlson: LOL don't assume anything, go back to release and see if it works :)

 764 2011-05-17 04:47:09 <sacarlson> ok I got a transaction now "txid" : "6013d2be697e05d7d6f218e228d6172c5b7ef28247e902b0813156f2cf1f361a",
 765 2011-05-17 04:47:21 <sacarlson> maybe your minner did it?
 766 2011-05-17 04:47:36 <io_error> probably :)
 767 2011-05-17 04:48:09 <sacarlson> io_error: and that was with no blocks recieved
 768 2011-05-17 04:48:39 <sacarlson> io_error: so maybe there was just no minners present
 769 2011-05-17 04:48:55 <io_error> Quite possibly, there hadn't been a block in over an hour
 770 2011-05-17 04:49:37 <sacarlson> io_error: well as soon as I recieve and send one transaction I continue work merging into my network
 771 2011-05-17 04:52:36 <sacarlson> io_error: oh and this ammount  "amount" : 0.11000000,  that means it was from faucet
 772 2011-05-17 04:52:51 <io_error> I sent a 0.22

 778 2011-05-17 04:59:56 <B0g4r7> It looks like I could use it to connect to a remote bitcoind and examine the wallet, etc, but it doesn't seem to work for me.

 796 2011-05-17 05:16:08 <jrmithdobbs> B0g4r7: you cannot remotely examine the wallet exactly. you can use listaccounts and getbalance and send/recv, but there is currently no way to have it dump the entire wallet

 805 2011-05-17 05:17:24 <jrmithdobbs> gmaxwell: you can't dump to the rpcclient in 3.21 which means the client can't read it directly

 875 2011-05-17 06:55:20 <NvrBst> I can only see one via the miners, but, GPUX can see both *just says load on 2nd is 0%*.

 892 2011-05-17 07:02:50 <NvrBst> what is a dummy plug?  I have a spare hdmi cable, but nothing to plug it into.  I tried just pluging it in the back empty, but, didn't seem to work.
 893 2011-05-17 07:02:59 <Diablo-D3> NvrBst: both of those only see one gpu at a time
 894 2011-05-17 07:03:07 <Diablo-D3> either run more than one, or switch to DiabloMiner

 899 2011-05-17 07:04:32 <Diablo-D3> NvrBst: no I mean, you have to start a poclbm for each gpu.
 900 2011-05-17 07:04:39 <Diablo-D3> one with -D 0, one with -D 1
 901 2011-05-17 07:04:47 <Diablo-D3> needing a dummy plug is also another issue
 902 2011-05-17 07:04:50 <NvrBst> aye, but there is no "-D 1"
 903 2011-05-17 07:05:05 <Diablo-D3> (well -D whatever your CPU isnt)
 904 2011-05-17 07:05:11 <NvrBst> is dummy plug special?  or is that just an hdmi cable?

 947 2011-05-17 08:23:31 <ersi> It's profitable business... IF you manage to actually draw some exchange volume
 948 2011-05-17 08:23:48 <ersi> (Do I have to point out there's no shortage on exchanges?)

 950 2011-05-17 08:26:57 <ersi> It's quite funny that MtGox is .jp-based and is not handling JPY :)

1014 2011-05-17 09:34:32 <mtrlt> https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Protocol_specification#Block_Headers <- is that really the block header that is given to the double sha-256? writing my own miner but can't seem to get the correct hash. tried little-endian and big-endian and such with a block from blockexplorer but no luck
1015 2011-05-17 09:35:38 <forrestv> mtrlt, what language?
1016 2011-05-17 09:36:26 <forrestv> mtrlt, the hashes on blockexplorer are in the reverse byte order than hashes are usually produced in
1017 2011-05-17 09:36:32 <forrestv> and you hash the little endian data
1018 2011-05-17 09:37:35 <mtrlt> C++
1019 2011-05-17 09:38:54 <mtrlt> umm so if blockexplorer has the uint32 number of 123456789 (0x075BCD15) what bytes should i write? 0x07 0x5B 0xCD 0x15 or 0x15 0xCD 0x5B 0x07
1020 2011-05-17 09:40:09 <MartianW> mtrlt, what kind of miner are you writing? (Just curious)
1021 2011-05-17 09:41:06 <mtrlt> in the end, a gpu miner that i can optimize properly :P but currently just a slow cpu-miner to get the basics right first
1022 2011-05-17 09:42:30 <mtrlt> i tried to hash the uint32 data big endian, little endian and the merkle root + last block in big and little endian. but none of those 4 combinations results in the right hash :/
1023 2011-05-17 09:42:43 <mtrlt> using cryptopp for sha-256
1024 2011-05-17 09:43:04 <sipa> the formatting of sha checksums is weird in bitcoin

1071 2011-05-17 10:46:12 <Blitzboom> ok, let me see
1072 2011-05-17 10:46:42 <xelister> quup: killing -9 anything sounds like a good way to corrupt files
1073 2011-05-17 10:48:11 <UukGoblin> quup, yeah, I wouldn't trust BDB so much
1074 2011-05-17 10:48:19 <UukGoblin> quup, you're asking to get your wallet corrupted ;-]
1075 2011-05-17 10:48:39 <lupine_85> why on earth would you want to kill -9 it?
1076 2011-05-17 10:48:58 <quup> UukGoblin: ye, will make extra sure to back that up :)
1077 2011-05-17 10:49:24 <quup> lupine_85: because it locks up the rpc interface more often than not
1078 2011-05-17 10:49:50 <lupine_85> how odd
1079 2011-05-17 10:50:06 <UukGoblin> that should probably be looked into
1080 2011-05-17 10:50:10 <lupine_85> and a simple kill doesn't work ?

1095 2011-05-17 10:59:27 <diki> So. I have a few questions regarding poclbm or any other miner.
1096 2011-05-17 10:59:53 <diki> They display the mhash/s however i noticed that it hides when a new share is accepted
1097 2011-05-17 11:00:12 <UukGoblin> phoenix shows that I think
1098 2011-05-17 11:00:23 <diki> Usually in a loop, when you want to print something on the console it will stay there and so will every text in the loop(if any)
1099 2011-05-17 11:00:43 <diki> How do poclbm display the mhash/s without displaying it per loop?

1104 2011-05-17 11:01:50 <diki> its in python
1105 2011-05-17 11:01:53 <_ape> so
1106 2011-05-17 11:02:02 * diki doesnt know python
1107 2011-05-17 11:02:02 <_ape> you can see where its printing the mhash at least
1108 2011-05-17 11:02:04 <_ape> pretty easily
1109 2011-05-17 11:02:20 <diki> I can see it, but how do i do the same effect in C++?
1110 2011-05-17 11:02:42 <diki> For an example: if you loop a text a thousand times, it will print the text a thousand times
1111 2011-05-17 11:02:59 <diki> In poclbm it's not
1112 2011-05-17 11:03:10 <_ape> it does \r
1113 2011-05-17 11:03:13 <_ape> to go back to the start of the line
1114 2011-05-17 11:03:14 <_ape> lol
1115 2011-05-17 11:03:16 <_ape> same as any other console app
1116 2011-05-17 11:03:59 <_ape> also uses sys.stdout.write instead of print to avoid the \n
1117 2011-05-17 11:04:13 <_ape> i do the same thing in my temp monitoring script
1118 2011-05-17 11:04:46 <diki> In poclbm all i see in the code is
1119 2011-05-17 11:04:46 <diki> def hashrate(self, rate): 		self.say('%s khash/s', rate)
1120 2011-05-17 11:04:51 <diki> no \r there
1121 2011-05-17 11:04:52 <_ape> look at self.say

1124 2011-05-17 11:05:59 <xelister> UukGoblin: ^ :)
1125 2011-05-17 11:06:08 <_ape> to do it in c++ you can do it like this, same deal: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/1637587/c-libcurl-console-progress-bar/1639047#1639047

1144 2011-05-17 11:09:06 <xelister> if the radeons aren't touching
1145 2011-05-17 11:09:15 <UukGoblin> xelister, hrm that only has one slot between cards... might be tight
1146 2011-05-17 11:09:24 <xelister> UukGoblin: one? I see 2 slots there...?
1147 2011-05-17 11:09:31 <xelister> yea, 1 between the cards
1148 2011-05-17 11:09:39 <xelister> considering their size..
1149 2011-05-17 11:09:41 <_ape> im having a hard enough time keeping 5870s with no extra slot between them cool
1150 2011-05-17 11:09:44 <_ape> wouldnt want to try 5970s that way
1151 2011-05-17 11:09:47 <xelister> are there boards with bigger spacing, UukGoblin?
1152 2011-05-17 11:09:54 <diki> If the 5970 are not reference, and you find them with thinner cases you will have better airflow
1153 2011-05-17 11:10:12 <xelister> diki: hm?
1154 2011-05-17 11:10:34 <diki> if the design is not a reference design
1155 2011-05-17 11:10:37 <diki> they might be thinner
1156 2011-05-17 11:10:52 <diki> i mean the PCB is what...1-2 mm thick?
1157 2011-05-17 11:11:05 <diki> it's the case with the heatsink that is big
1158 2011-05-17 11:11:08 <UukGoblin> xelister, nah a 5970 is 2 slots wide
1159 2011-05-17 11:11:28 <xelister> well are there any mainboards with wider spacing then 2 pci between pci-e ?
1160 2011-05-17 11:11:28 <UukGoblin> so yeah 1 slot of space between cards
1161 2011-05-17 11:11:36 <UukGoblin> dunno ;-]

1164 2011-05-17 11:11:53 <diki> there are motherboards that fit your requirements
1165 2011-05-17 11:12:02 <UukGoblin> well the msi 790fx-gd70 (afaik, I keep confusing the number) has 4 pci-e slots so you can make yourself some space between them
1166 2011-05-17 11:12:04 <diki> like 16 pci-e x16 slots
1167 2011-05-17 11:12:22 <UukGoblin> diki, srsly? that's gotta be expensive
1168 2011-05-17 11:12:28 <xelister> UukGoblin: hm? so how you are making the space
1169 2011-05-17 11:12:37 <xelister> UukGoblin: you pack 2x5970 per box?
1170 2011-05-17 11:13:10 <diki> oops, correction just 10

1182 2011-05-17 11:16:04 <UukGoblin> wonder how much power it feeds to the ports ;-]
1183 2011-05-17 11:16:16 <diki> A slot gives 75 watts
1184 2011-05-17 11:16:26 <diki> everything else is the 6 or 8 pin connectors
1185 2011-05-17 11:16:27 <UukGoblin> xelister, btw, keep in mind that the 5970s are fucking greedy on power from the pci-ex slots

1206 2011-05-17 11:36:54 <diki> a 5970 draws no more than 375 watts
1207 2011-05-17 11:36:56 * da2ce7 has two GPU's running at feet warming temputures
1208 2011-05-17 11:37:00 <diki> no OCed of course

1212 2011-05-17 11:38:04 <BlueMatt> Blitzboom: it just means another bitcoin is running...the lock on a dir means only one process can have the lock
1213 2011-05-17 11:38:09 <sipa> diki: our 2x5970 consumes 630W for the whole system, OCed to 810-860MHz
1214 2011-05-17 11:38:11 <BlueMatt> have no idea the german word

1232 2011-05-17 11:43:01 <BlueMatt> da2ce7: I think its really cool, but...I would much rather see work on bitcoin wallet proto first
1233 2011-05-17 11:43:28 <diki> Erm you wrote ProtIcol it's ProtOcol

1245 2011-05-17 11:48:34 <Blitzboom> will the fee be reduced in 0.3.22 btw?
1246 2011-05-17 11:48:54 <BlueMatt> yea
1247 2011-05-17 11:49:06 <Blitzboom> great
1248 2011-05-17 11:51:17 <diki> and .22 will be out...?
1249 2011-05-17 11:51:32 <BlueMatt> wen I convince jgarzik that portoption wasnt ready to be pulled ;)
1250 2011-05-17 11:51:38 <BlueMatt> na, its at rc now...
1251 2011-05-17 11:51:45 <diki> portoption?
1252 2011-05-17 11:51:54 <BlueMatt> -port to change listen port
1253 2011-05-17 11:52:20 <sipa> well, it's only an rc
1254 2011-05-17 11:52:37 <BlueMatt> na, I was just surprised that jgarzik pulled it
1255 2011-05-17 11:52:38 <diki> cant you like just copy over the code from -rescan etc and call it -port and change it like that?
1256 2011-05-17 11:52:47 <diki> I've always relied on copy/paste when writing code
1257 2011-05-17 11:52:47 <sipa> loi
1258 2011-05-17 11:52:51 <BlueMatt> Ive never gotten it to make any connection, but it might just be my lack of that much testing
1259 2011-05-17 11:52:57 <sipa> the option parsing isn't the problem diki
1260 2011-05-17 11:52:59 <sipa> that's trivial
1261 2011-05-17 11:53:18 DukeOfURL has joined
1262 2011-05-17 11:53:34 <sipa> BlueMatt: later today i'd like to do a test with two 0.3.22rc clients both specifying the same -port
1263 2011-05-17 11:53:35 <diki> 1. Copy code 2. Parse variable port 3.???? 4. Profit?
1264 2011-05-17 11:53:40 <sipa> haha
1265 2011-05-17 11:54:01 <BlueMatt> sipa: yea, but it should work if one loan user in the middle of buttfuck-whoknows-where is using port 463572352
1266 2011-05-17 11:54:28 <diki> Can you guys make bitcoin open the said port if it's closed?
1267 2011-05-17 11:54:38 <diki> or report if it's been blocked by some reason
1268 2011-05-17 11:54:41 <BlueMatt> you mean upnp?
1269 2011-05-17 11:55:05 <diki> I dont know how you forward a port in programming, but yeah
1270 2011-05-17 11:55:30 <diki> uTorrent notifies a user with an icon if the port is open or closed
1271 2011-05-17 11:55:42 <BlueMatt> Blitzboom: "If the file does not exist, create it with owner-readable-only file permissions."
1272 2011-05-17 11:55:44 <sipa> BlueMatt: or just two 0.3.22rc's, one with -port and the other without
1273 2011-05-17 11:56:12 <BlueMatt> sipa: Ive done a bit of testing with -port and have never been able to get any connections, hence my reservations
1274 2011-05-17 11:56:27 <diki> did you forward your ports matt?
1275 2011-05-17 11:56:30 <BlueMatt> though I havn't done _that_ much testing
1276 2011-05-17 11:56:37 <BlueMatt> diki: should still make outgoing connections
1277 2011-05-17 11:56:40 <Blitzboom> BlueMatt: "Wenn die Datei nicht existiert, erstellen Sie sie mit ausschließlich Besitzer-Leserechten"
1278 2011-05-17 11:57:05 <diki> How did jgarzik respond?
1279 2011-05-17 11:57:16 <BlueMatt> hasn't yet
1280 2011-05-17 11:58:06 <diki> there are many things i still wonder about in a program(any program)...how does the gui run while doing nothing...
1281 2011-05-17 11:58:42 <diki> Bitcoin is constantly checking the block chain...but you can in the same time make it send coins, generate coins and pop open the options dialog
1282 2011-05-17 11:58:56 <TD> the magic of threads ....
1283 2011-05-17 11:59:07 <BlueMatt> Blitzboom: alright, thanks looks good on a scroll through
1284 2011-05-17 11:59:18 <diki> If i make a simple app in c++ and make do a loop and make the thread sleep. I can't do anything at all if i dont get out the loop first...which closes the programs

1292 2011-05-17 12:00:57 <TD> diki: so you use multiple threads, or a multiplexed event loop
1293 2011-05-17 12:01:16 <diki> And how do you keep the program from closing?
1294 2011-05-17 12:01:50 <diki> A console app, after it finishes it's job closes unless you put system pause
1295 2011-05-17 12:02:04 <diki> even after pause it will close cause it finished it's job

1299 2011-05-17 12:03:07 <TD> you can also do sleeps in such a way that you can respond to events at the same time
1300 2011-05-17 12:03:29 <TD> look at poll() on unix or MsgWaitForMultipleObjectsEx on Windows

1329 2011-05-17 12:19:32 <ersi> Ah, heh. I'm used to having a english empty one
1330 2011-05-17 12:19:33 <UukGoblin> xelister, depends, sometimes 2, sometimes 3
1331 2011-05-17 12:19:33 <ersi> ye
1332 2011-05-17 12:19:43 <sipa> sacarlson: that code is wrong, and that's my fault
1333 2011-05-17 12:20:24 <sacarlson> sipa: so so you have a fix yet?
1334 2011-05-17 12:20:44 <sacarlson> sipa: had me thinking I had done something wrong now for 2 days
1335 2011-05-17 12:20:44 <xelister> UukGoblin: and with 2 cooling if totally fine right?  and with 3 sometimes?
1336 2011-05-17 12:20:58 <sipa> sacarlson: i'll fix it tonight
1337 2011-05-17 12:21:10 <UukGoblin> xelister, it depends how you do it... I have custom fans and shit
1338 2011-05-17 12:21:15 <UukGoblin> I generally don't use boxes
1339 2011-05-17 12:21:15 <Olli_> This is really interesting..
1340 2011-05-17 12:21:24 <Blitzboom> sipa: you need to update your graphs’ axis again :P
1341 2011-05-17 12:21:28 <sacarlson> sipa: cool, oh and I love your dns lookup in -conect by the way
1342 2011-05-17 12:21:29 <sipa> damn
1343 2011-05-17 12:21:35 <sacarlson> sipa: I needed that
1344 2011-05-17 12:21:40 <sipa> so did i
1345 2011-05-17 12:21:41 <Diablo-D3> I think I have gone wrong somewhere
1346 2011-05-17 12:21:45 <Diablo-D3> I am now writing code to write code
1347 2011-05-17 12:21:54 <sipa> it's called a compiler?
1348 2011-05-17 12:21:56 <UukGoblin> Diablo-D3, perfectly viable
1349 2011-05-17 12:22:12 <Diablo-D3> all those years I used perl are coming in handy again
1350 2011-05-17 12:22:24 <UukGoblin> hahah

1356 2011-05-17 12:29:42 <nordicminers> Hi guys. Im having a pain with openCL, anyone got a spare minute?
1357 2011-05-17 12:30:08 <UukGoblin> nordicminers, DATAJA
1358 2011-05-17 12:30:57 <Diablo-D3> it is rude to ask to ask
1359 2011-05-17 12:30:59 <Diablo-D3> just ask
1360 2011-05-17 12:31:15 <nordicminers> UukGoblin, its the openCLlib.so that keeps crashing my openCL
1361 2011-05-17 12:31:36 <UukGoblin> openCLlib.so?
1362 2011-05-17 12:32:11 <nordicminers> yes, something python uses. I just dont get it - yesterday it all ran fine, now it comes with these messy errors
1363 2011-05-17 12:32:30 marlowe has joined
1364 2011-05-17 12:32:44 <UukGoblin> well if you pasted the errors on some pastebin, maybe some python guys could help, I'm using diablo ;-]
1365 2011-05-17 12:33:14 <nordicminers> yeah sorry, was a bit empty stated one second
1366 2011-05-17 12:33:54 <nordicminers> im using phoenix, buts its before the miner the problem occurs. ./CLInfo |grep CL_DEVICE_TYPE_GPU gives me a CL error, undefined
1367 2011-05-17 12:34:34 <nordicminers> i can see my 3 HD5870 cards fine with the aticonfig command, but somehow CL doesnt see them
1368 2011-05-17 12:34:46 <nordicminers> terminate called after throwing an instance of 'cl::Error'
1369 2011-05-17 12:34:54 <nordicminers> thats all i get
1370 2011-05-17 12:35:00 <UukGoblin> what did you change since yesterday?
1371 2011-05-17 12:35:10 <JFK911> read the directions for installing amd's opencl
1372 2011-05-17 12:35:22 <nordicminers> I changed nothing. I think it might be the library path or something
1373 2011-05-17 12:35:23 <JFK911> solves most problems
1374 2011-05-17 12:35:42 <nordicminers> yeah, been reading it for 12 hours now - i just dont get it
1375 2011-05-17 12:36:10 <JFK911> theres a command at the end, did you do it
1376 2011-05-17 12:36:40 <nordicminers> what document are you reffering to?
1377 2011-05-17 12:36:50 <UukGoblin> you need these variables set properly: ATISTREAMSDKROOT, ATISTREAMSAMPLEROOT and LD_LIBRARY_PATH
1378 2011-05-17 12:37:04 <sipa> only the last one matters
1379 2011-05-17 12:37:04 <JFK911> the one that explains how to run the script that does what UukGoblin just said
1380 2011-05-17 12:37:20 <xelister> Diablo-D3: yo
1381 2011-05-17 12:37:23 <BlueMatt> who the hell sends me an encrypted gpg message from an anonymous email service...it makes it kind of hard to respond...
1382 2011-05-17 12:37:32 <BlueMatt> I guess thats what you get when you work in bitcoin
1383 2011-05-17 12:37:33 <xelister> Diablo-D3: sometimes your recent miner (yesterday) slows down to almost zero speed after long runtime
1384 2011-05-17 12:37:43 <UukGoblin> BlueMatt, lol
1385 2011-05-17 12:37:48 <Diablo-D3> xelister: you're the only one whos ever experienced that bug
1386 2011-05-17 12:37:52 <Diablo-D3> UukGoblin: wrong
1387 2011-05-17 12:37:58 <Diablo-D3> you only need LD_LIBRARY_PATH set
1388 2011-05-17 12:38:02 <xelister> Diablo-D3: you asked every user ever?
1389 2011-05-17 12:38:19 <UukGoblin> well I set all 3 cause that's what the doc says ;-]
1390 2011-05-17 12:38:19 <Diablo-D3> /path/to/ati-stream-sdk-lnx64/lib/x86_64/
1391 2011-05-17 12:38:29 <Diablo-D3> thats ALL that needs to be set
1392 2011-05-17 12:39:15 <nordicminers> export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/btc/ati-stream-sdk-v2.1-lnx64/lib/x86/:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH
1393 2011-05-17 12:39:15 <nordicminers> cd btc/ati-stream-sdk-v2.1-lnx32/samples/opencl/bin/x86
1394 2011-05-17 12:39:27 <nordicminers> and then the ./CLInfo line
1395 2011-05-17 12:39:35 <Diablo-D3> nordicminers: erm one of your lines are wrong there
1396 2011-05-17 12:39:35 <UukGoblin> BlueMatt, if you're /desperate/ to respond, just send plaintext saying 'keyz dude'
1397 2011-05-17 12:39:55 <Diablo-D3> nordicminers: if you're on 32bit, obviously that needs to match
1398 2011-05-17 12:40:06 <BlueMatt> no, I cant respond its an anonymous email service, if I send a message it says "No such recipient"
1399 2011-05-17 12:40:13 <nordicminers> Diablo-D3 but its on the 86 both sides?
1400 2011-05-17 12:40:20 <Diablo-D3> nordicminers: lnx64 -> 32
1401 2011-05-17 12:40:20 <UukGoblin> BlueMatt, ah. ;-]
1402 2011-05-17 12:40:37 <UukGoblin> Diablo-D3, nah you're wrong now
1403 2011-05-17 12:40:39 <nordicminers> ohh
1404 2011-05-17 12:40:50 <UukGoblin> Diablo-D3, directory is named the same, the difference is between lib/x86 and lib/86_64
1405 2011-05-17 12:40:59 <UukGoblin> (I think)
1406 2011-05-17 12:41:04 <Diablo-D3> UukGoblin: not if he downloaded the 32bit verrsion of the sdk
1407 2011-05-17 12:41:06 <UukGoblin> (never actually used 32)
1408 2011-05-17 12:41:06 <JFK911> why not just run the setup script that ati gives?  is it broken?
1409 2011-05-17 12:41:19 <Diablo-D3> JFK911: because its a zip file, and you unzip it?
1410 2011-05-17 12:41:30 <UukGoblin> there's no setup script in the sdk
1411 2011-05-17 12:41:42 <luke-jr> ;;bc,blocks
1412 2011-05-17 12:41:43 <gribble> 124603
1413 2011-05-17 12:41:44 <JFK911> yes there is.  running it is the last step
1414 2011-05-17 12:42:14 <Diablo-D3> you're on drugs
1415 2011-05-17 12:42:35 <nordicminers> hmm i still get the same error
1416 2011-05-17 12:42:47 <Diablo-D3> nordicminers: what IS the error you're getting?
1417 2011-05-17 12:43:03 <nordicminers> Diablo-D3 terminate called after throwing an instance of 'cl::Error'

1419 2011-05-17 12:43:14 <Diablo-D3> pastebin the whole error
1420 2011-05-17 12:43:22 <JFK911> what's icd-registration.tgz then
1421 2011-05-17 12:43:30 <Diablo-D3> JFK911: not a script
1422 2011-05-17 12:43:33 <nordicminers> That is the whole error line
1423 2011-05-17 12:43:37 <UukGoblin> JFK911, something you need to untar to / ;-]
1424 2011-05-17 12:43:42 <Diablo-D3> nordicminers: there are lines above it, no?
1425 2011-05-17 12:43:57 <nordicminers> Diablo-D3 No, only my ./CLInfo command
1426 2011-05-17 12:44:01 <JFK911> same shit
1427 2011-05-17 12:44:16 <UukGoblin> JFK911, you claim a tarball is the same as a script?
1428 2011-05-17 12:44:26 <UukGoblin> agree with Diablo-D3, you're on drugs
1429 2011-05-17 12:44:27 <JFK911> well
1430 2011-05-17 12:44:31 <JFK911> a shar and a tarball are the same thing
1431 2011-05-17 12:44:32 <nordicminers> My ICD is installed on root, like etc/OpenCL/vendors
1432 2011-05-17 12:44:33 <JFK911> and a shar is a script
1433 2011-05-17 12:44:37 <JFK911> so, they are equal.
1434 2011-05-17 12:44:54 <Diablo-D3> nordicminers: are you sshing in?
1435 2011-05-17 12:44:58 <sipa> what's a shar?
1436 2011-05-17 12:45:02 <nordicminers> Diablo-D3 No, its local everything
1437 2011-05-17 12:45:11 <JFK911> `shell archive`
1438 2011-05-17 12:45:14 <Diablo-D3> sipa: sh script that untars itself
1439 2011-05-17 12:45:14 <sipa> ok
1440 2011-05-17 12:45:16 <Diablo-D3> sipa: freaky shit
1441 2011-05-17 12:45:25 <sipa> yes yes, i've come across those
1442 2011-05-17 12:45:37 <Diablo-D3> catalyst installer .runs are a variant of those
1443 2011-05-17 12:45:45 <UukGoblin> it's not a shar for me, looks like a regular tar archive
1444 2011-05-17 12:45:50 <sipa> so, you have scripts, archives, and some crossover between the two
1445 2011-05-17 12:45:56 <sipa> that doesn't mean they are equal
1446 2011-05-17 12:45:56 <Diablo-D3> sipa: its a normal fucking tar
1447 2011-05-17 12:46:00 <Diablo-D3> er
1448 2011-05-17 12:46:01 <JFK911> im going to do some drugs now, per the above suggestions
1449 2011-05-17 12:46:03 <BlueMatt> can I get someone to compile bitcoin with MAX_OUTBOUND_CONNECTION=some huge number (in net.cpp) and run it on testnet?
1450 2011-05-17 12:46:04 <Diablo-D3> JFK911: its a normal fucking tar
1451 2011-05-17 12:46:15 <JFK911> Diablo-D3: whatever, its an extra step that's confusing
1452 2011-05-17 12:46:16 <Diablo-D3> cd /; sudo tar zxvf /path/to/the.tar
1453 2011-05-17 12:46:21 * Diablo-D3 shrugs
1454 2011-05-17 12:46:23 <xelister> will r5970 work fine in Pci-E x4 (electrically, x16 mechanically)
1455 2011-05-17 12:46:24 <JFK911> because people arent used to rtfm
1456 2011-05-17 12:46:27 <sipa> it's a tar with a script prepended
1457 2011-05-17 12:46:34 <xelister> for mining, it will just have x4 lower memory xfers?
1458 2011-05-17 12:46:37 <Diablo-D3> YES GODDAMNED RTFM IS SO HARD, LETS GO TO THE MALLLLLLLLLl
1459 2011-05-17 12:46:44 <Diablo-D3> nordicminers: what video card?
1460 2011-05-17 12:46:57 <nordicminers> Diablo_D3 3x HD 5870 is installed
1461 2011-05-17 12:47:08 <nordicminers> Diablo-D3 ATIconfig finds them all but CLinfo doesnt
1462 2011-05-17 12:47:18 <Diablo-D3> nordicminers: what version of catalyst?
1463 2011-05-17 12:47:28 <Diablo-D3> oh wait a second
1464 2011-05-17 12:47:31 <Diablo-D3> you're on 32-bit windows
1465 2011-05-17 12:47:36 <Diablo-D3> you miiiiiight have a problem
1466 2011-05-17 12:47:37 <Diablo-D3> err
1467 2011-05-17 12:47:40 <Diablo-D3> 32 bit linux
1468 2011-05-17 12:48:01 <Diablo-D3> no, now Im the one thats on drugs, you said 5870, not 5970
1469 2011-05-17 12:48:09 <Diablo-D3> apparently JFK911's retardation is spreading
1470 2011-05-17 12:48:09 <JFK911> yes
1471 2011-05-17 12:48:12 <JFK911> get high enjoy life

1474 2011-05-17 12:48:41 <Diablo-D3> nordicminers: it should work fine
1475 2011-05-17 12:48:52 <Diablo-D3> nordicminers: fglrxinfo says appropriate strings?
1476 2011-05-17 12:48:53 <JFK911> unless you have autism, drugs are necessary for computer work
1477 2011-05-17 12:49:02 <Diablo-D3> JFK911: I have autism. You fail.
1478 2011-05-17 12:49:05 <UukGoblin> JFK911, disagree
1479 2011-05-17 12:49:08 <JFK911> a "healthy" human mind cannot comprehend c++ without being drowned in LSD first
1480 2011-05-17 12:49:21 <Diablo-D3> dude, c++ isnt even a real language
1481 2011-05-17 12:49:25 <JFK911> right
1482 2011-05-17 12:49:26 <UukGoblin> I'm neither on LSD nor autistic
1483 2011-05-17 12:49:33 <nordicminers> Diablo-D3 yes fglrxinfo got all three cards fine
1484 2011-05-17 12:49:42 <UukGoblin> and C++ is my favourite REAL LANGUAGE
1485 2011-05-17 12:49:46 <Diablo-D3> nordicminers: vendor says ATI, etc?
1486 2011-05-17 12:49:49 <JFK911> UukGoblin, you dont have to be "on lsd" now.  The changes it makes are long lasting.
1487 2011-05-17 12:50:05 <UukGoblin> JFK911, I never touched the shit?

1496 2011-05-17 12:51:15 <UukGoblin> I do agree however, that there is only a small subset of people who understand pointers
1497 2011-05-17 12:51:17 <nordicminers> UukGoblin that gives me libatiocl32.so and the 64 one - two files
1498 2011-05-17 12:51:26 <JFK911> it's more than pointers
1499 2011-05-17 12:51:31 <JFK911> pointers are somewhat sensible
1500 2011-05-17 12:51:36 <Diablo-D3> UukGoblin: are you fucking kidding me?
1501 2011-05-17 12:51:39 <Diablo-D3> pointers are easy
1502 2011-05-17 12:51:41 <Diablo-D3> its all address math
1503 2011-05-17 12:51:48 <UukGoblin> nordicminers, ok, if you're on 32 bit, find libatiocl32.so in your sdk directory (lib/x86 afaik), and run ldd on it
1504 2011-05-17 12:51:50 <JFK911> it's all the stack abuse
1505 2011-05-17 12:52:02 * Diablo-D3 has coded C for a decade, and has earned the right to look down on C++
1506 2011-05-17 12:52:16 <UukGoblin> Diablo-D3, well you're in that small subset then?
1507 2011-05-17 12:52:31 <UukGoblin> stack abuse?

1509 2011-05-17 12:52:36 <UukGoblin> why would you abuse the stack?
1510 2011-05-17 12:52:42 <Diablo-D3> stack abuse is lol in C
1511 2011-05-17 12:52:44 <Diablo-D3> generally: dont do it
1512 2011-05-17 12:52:46 <JFK911> the programmer doesn't; the c++ compiler does it

1554 2011-05-17 12:55:20 <JFK911> wasnt ubuntu broken for mining?
1555 2011-05-17 12:55:21 <Diablo-D3> nordicminers: as far as I can tell, there sno reason for this to happen
1556 2011-05-17 12:55:25 <Diablo-D3> JFK911: yes/no.
1557 2011-05-17 12:55:25 <JFK911> or was it broken for bitcoin?
1558 2011-05-17 12:55:30 <Diablo-D3> it just sucks
1559 2011-05-17 12:55:33 <JFK911> agree
1560 2011-05-17 12:55:34 <Diablo-D3> it DOES work though

1563 2011-05-17 12:55:41 <nordicminers> Diablo-D3 does it looks fine?
1564 2011-05-17 12:55:48 <Diablo-D3> nordicminers: yes. try using my miner instead.

1566 2011-05-17 12:56:15 <vegard> what seems to be the problem?
1567 2011-05-17 12:56:24 <nordicminers> Diablo-D3 i just dont get why the CLInfo dont work. I figure it should give me the right output without error before im starting to try a miner
1568 2011-05-17 12:56:33 <Diablo-D3> nordicminers: yes, it should work fine

1616 2011-05-17 13:08:19 <nordicminers> vegard i did your line - perhaps that was what worked?

1619 2011-05-17 13:08:57 <vegard> my line was wrong, though -- shouldn't it be lnx32 like diablo said?
1620 2011-05-17 13:09:00 <nordicminers> Diablo-D3 oh, but i will have to define it each time then?
1621 2011-05-17 13:09:07 <Diablo-D3> nordicminers: yes, or throw it in your .bashrc
1622 2011-05-17 13:09:11 <nordicminers> vegard i changed to lnx32 :)
1623 2011-05-17 13:09:27 <Diablo-D3> btw, if you have stuff in your home dir, the path for it is ~/whatever
1624 2011-05-17 13:09:30 <Diablo-D3> not /whatever
1625 2011-05-17 13:09:35 <nordicminers> Diablo-D3 where is the .bashrc located?
1626 2011-05-17 13:10:21 <nordicminers> Diablo-D3 ah cool. Im creating some shell scripts to start the miner etc. Would be cool not to define the library each time they run

1636 2011-05-17 13:14:35 <sipa> diki: you know what a static function in C is?

1638 2011-05-17 13:15:04 <sipa> static functions are completely different

1640 2011-05-17 13:15:23 <sipa> it simply means they are not accessible from another compilation unit (= .c file)
1641 2011-05-17 13:15:31 <diki> why not?
1642 2011-05-17 13:15:40 <diki> rather, why?
1643 2011-05-17 13:16:07 <sipa> 1) to avoid clashes with other functions with the same name, locally defined in other files

1653 2011-05-17 13:18:32 <diki> I also wanted to know..is it possible to request a getwork from a pool, but send it to the local client?
1654 2011-05-17 13:18:41 <Diablo-D3> no
1655 2011-05-17 13:18:45 <diki> why not?
1656 2011-05-17 13:18:57 <Diablo-D3> how are you defining "send to local client"
1657 2011-05-17 13:19:27 <diki> request a getwork, solve the hash, but instead of sending the hash to the pool, you send it to bitcoin running in -server mode
1658 2011-05-17 13:19:39 <Diablo-D3> ahh, you cant
1659 2011-05-17 13:19:43 <Diablo-D3> getwork sends you a header
1660 2011-05-17 13:19:53 <Diablo-D3> you cant reconstruct the block from it
1661 2011-05-17 13:20:14 <diki> then what does bitcoin send me?
1662 2011-05-17 13:20:19 <Diablo-D3> the header.
1663 2011-05-17 13:20:26 <Diablo-D3> it keeps a copy of the original block
1664 2011-05-17 13:21:07 <diki> So bitcoin already has the winning block, but cuts the header and wants me to solve it?
1665 2011-05-17 13:21:17 <sipa> and even if you could know the original block
1666 2011-05-17 13:21:21 <sipa> you couldn't change it
1667 2011-05-17 13:21:27 <Diablo-D3> diki: it has a potentially winning block
1668 2011-05-17 13:21:29 <sipa> as that would change the hash
1669 2011-05-17 13:21:31 <Diablo-D3> sipa: that too
1670 2011-05-17 13:21:39 <Diablo-D3> since the gen tx is tied to the owner
1671 2011-05-17 13:21:42 <sipa> and the block contains who to pay
1672 2011-05-17 13:21:45 <diki> The reason i am asking is because it's far more likely to find a block in a pool than solo
1673 2011-05-17 13:21:52 <sipa> of course
1674 2011-05-17 13:21:54 <Diablo-D3> diki: duh
1675 2011-05-17 13:21:57 <sipa> that's the point of pools
1676 2011-05-17 13:21:58 <Diablo-D3> actually no
1677 2011-05-17 13:22:00 <diki> so the pool could potentially send me the winning ticket
1678 2011-05-17 13:22:01 <sipa> but no, you can't cheat them
1679 2011-05-17 13:22:03 <diki> then i get my 50BTC
1680 2011-05-17 13:22:03 <Diablo-D3> YOU'RE not more likely
1681 2011-05-17 13:22:21 <sipa> indeed
1682 2011-05-17 13:22:22 <Diablo-D3> you still generate x hashes per second which generates y blocks per z hashes
1683 2011-05-17 13:22:32 <sipa> each hash has exactly the same chance of winning
1684 2011-05-17 13:22:39 <Diablo-D3> it doesnt give a fuck if you're on a pool or solo
1685 2011-05-17 13:22:41 <sipa> each hash by anyone anywhere
1686 2011-05-17 13:22:42 <Diablo-D3> your life still sucks
1687 2011-05-17 13:23:20 <diki> my virtual life...

1696 2011-05-17 13:25:24 <diki> means they have big pants

1735 2011-05-17 13:38:41 ahbritto has joined
1736 2011-05-17 13:39:10 <sipa> it asks you to report blocks which beat the difficulty-1 target, instead of the real target
1737 2011-05-17 13:39:28 <sipa> and it uses these 'shares' to distribute the income of the ones that do solve the real target
1738 2011-05-17 13:40:17 <diki> will it get harder to make shares when the diff increases?
1739 2011-05-17 13:40:46 <sipa> difficulty-1 is difficulty-1
1740 2011-05-17 13:41:03 <sipa> one hash in 4.29 billion beats the difficulty-1 target
1741 2011-05-17 13:41:04 <diki> minus one...that isn't a lot

1899 2011-05-17 14:41:06 <z310> would you mind if i had my morning cigarette first
1900 2011-05-17 14:41:07 <TheKid> BlueMatt: one more question- there isn't an option to send a tx anyway, without a fee, is there?
1901 2011-05-17 14:41:08 <BlueMatt> I get none
1902 2011-05-17 14:41:25 <sipa> TheKid: no
1903 2011-05-17 14:41:31 <BlueMatt> TheKid: there should be
1904 2011-05-17 14:41:34 <sipa> maybe there should be
1905 2011-05-17 14:41:48 <sipa> the default currently kinda forces its policy
1906 2011-05-17 14:41:56 <sipa> *client
1907 2011-05-17 14:42:05 <TheKid> BlueMatt: I agree
1908 2011-05-17 14:42:25 <sipa> but the current system is definitely temporary
1909 2011-05-17 14:43:16 <BlueMatt> yea, someone needs to write a patch for that
1910 2011-05-17 14:44:59 <TheKid> BlueMatt: I'm willing to write the blurb that pops up, if someone else does the actual coding :P
1911 2011-05-17 14:45:16 <TheKid> seeing as btc is not coded in python I'm lost heh
1912 2011-05-17 14:45:24 <TD> ye gods, finally
1913 2011-05-17 14:45:27 <BlueMatt> lol the blurb is the easy part, getting it translated...
1914 2011-05-17 14:45:31 * TD has all his unit tests working [again]
1915 2011-05-17 14:46:07 <BlueMatt> TD actually has unit test? mind writing some for bitcoin proper???
1916 2011-05-17 14:46:21 <TD> unit tests for bitcoinj, sorry
1917 2011-05-17 14:46:24 <TD> perhaps they can serve as a basis
1918 2011-05-17 14:46:57 <TheKid> unit tests?
1919 2011-05-17 14:47:04 <TheKid> pardon  my noob but I'm trying to learn :)
1920 2011-05-17 14:47:50 <BlueMatt> me wants unit test for bitcoin, but doesnt feel like writing them
1921 2011-05-17 14:48:16 <TD> TheKid: small programs that check the correctness of other programs
1922 2011-05-17 14:48:33 <TD> bitcoin c++ has none. this is not excellent
1923 2011-05-17 14:48:43 <BlueMatt> sorry, / that last one
1924 2011-05-17 14:48:56 <TheKid> TD ah, thanks

1935 2011-05-17 14:52:43 <TheKid> oh, herp :P
1936 2011-05-17 14:53:02 <TheKid> don't mind me, I'm totally awesome at knowing people
1937 2011-05-17 14:53:11 <TD> well there's really no way to make that connection
1938 2011-05-17 14:53:13 <TheKid> (in my defense I usually just stick to -otc)
1939 2011-05-17 14:53:15 <TD> i use this nick for historical reasons
1940 2011-05-17 14:53:36 <TheKid> there isn't a gui for bitcoinj, is there?
1941 2011-05-17 14:53:54 <TD> no
1942 2011-05-17 14:54:22 <TheKid> once you've got everything tested, are you planning on working on one?
1943 2011-05-17 14:54:38 <TheKid> (sorry for the imprompteau interview, by the way- feel free to /ignore :P)
1944 2011-05-17 14:54:39 <sipa> i hope he doesn't need to, and others will do that anyway :)
1945 2011-05-17 14:54:57 <TD> there are already two android guis being written on top of it
1946 2011-05-17 14:55:03 <TD> as for desktop UI i haven't decided yet
1947 2011-05-17 14:55:10 <TD> there's plenty of work to do just supporting the needs of the android guys
1948 2011-05-17 14:55:14 <TheKid> right
1949 2011-05-17 14:55:21 <TD> i guess eventually it'll be nice to have a desktop app based on it
1950 2011-05-17 14:55:34 <TheKid> especially if it could tie in nicely with the android version
1951 2011-05-17 14:55:38 <TD> but yeah. i'd like to outsource that work if possible :) there are lots of java devs who could make a nice swing or swt gui
1952 2011-05-17 14:55:42 <TheKid> who is working on the android guis?
1953 2011-05-17 14:56:22 <jrmithdobbs> like there's such a thing as a nice swing or swt gui
1954 2011-05-17 14:56:26 <jrmithdobbs> ;P
1955 2011-05-17 14:56:49 <TheKid> ^
1956 2011-05-17 14:57:04 <TheKid> Hate to say it but I'm not really a java fan ;)
1957 2011-05-17 14:57:16 <sipa> well, what about this policy: all transactions get a score of (something like, needs tweaking) A*sum(amount*age_in_block,for each input)+time_in_queue*fee/size - age, and the only parameter miners can control is how much fee_income/size they want, and mining picks tx's by selecting them from high-prio to low-prio as long as the average fee is enough
1958 2011-05-17 14:57:25 <jrmithdobbs> ya tbqh the only usable ui that will come out of bitcoinj is for android
1959 2011-05-17 14:57:44 <TD> it's a lot better than it used to be, actually
1960 2011-05-17 14:57:49 <sipa> no free-tx reserved area, no low-priority tx's, every tx with fee eventually accepted
1961 2011-05-17 14:57:56 <TD> i made quite a nice app last year with java. it got rave reviews.
1962 2011-05-17 14:58:03 <TD> good choice of themes, colors and art makes a huge difference
1963 2011-05-17 14:58:06 <TheKid> sipa: I believe miners are able to do such things already, basically
1964 2011-05-17 14:58:16 <TheKid> luke-jr's pool only takes txs with fees
1965 2011-05-17 14:58:16 <sipa> of course, if they hack they client
1966 2011-05-17 14:58:21 <TheKid> well, right
1967 2011-05-17 14:58:32 <TheKid> but that's not prohibitively difficult for a pool operator to do/hire someone to do
1968 2011-05-17 14:58:32 <sipa> i just mean to make it default
1969 2011-05-17 14:58:43 <jrmithdobbs> TD: it's possible to do but most swing/swt stuff either the people writing it got lazy as fuck and so it's ugly or they know nothing about ui design so it's ugly in my experience
1970 2011-05-17 14:58:51 <TheKid> There's quite the discussion  about what defaults should do or not do
1971 2011-05-17 14:59:13 <TheKid> essentially it was decided on that defaults will eventually be ignored so don't worry about them too much, especially as other clients are developed
1972 2011-05-17 14:59:29 <TheKid> the only problem is that some things are hard coded into the client to be a valid block, such as block size
1973 2011-05-17 14:59:30 <TD> yeah. it varies by platform too.
1974 2011-05-17 14:59:35 <TheKid> those things need new algorithms
1975 2011-05-17 14:59:36 <sipa> afaik all miners are currently still connected to a bitcoind
1976 2011-05-17 14:59:37 <TD> intellij has a pretty nice gui, i think
1977 2011-05-17 14:59:51 <TheKid> TD: Java just looks bloated imo
1978 2011-05-17 14:59:58 <jrmithdobbs> TD: swing/swt is unusable on anything that isn't windows basically
1979 2011-05-17 15:00:03 <TheKid> even very nicely designed java things are.... silly looking
1980 2011-05-17 15:00:15 <jrmithdobbs> TD: the mac ui elements don't even pretend to try and look native
1981 2011-05-17 15:00:31 <jrmithdobbs> without a LOT of work on the dev's part
1982 2011-05-17 15:00:36 <Akinava> possible guess sumarny Hashrate if you know difficulty? http://goo.gl/PUJLs

2003 2011-05-17 15:04:21 <mtrlt> jrmithdobbs: well yea i understood "behind" as "being lower than"
2004 2011-05-17 15:04:27 <sipa> mtrlt: long polling, higher askrate, better network connection
2005 2011-05-17 15:04:50 <jrmithdobbs> sipa: you mean lower ask rate right?
2006 2011-05-17 15:04:57 <sipa> higher ask rate
2007 2011-05-17 15:05:03 <jrmithdobbs> how's that?
2008 2011-05-17 15:05:06 <mtrlt> yep and that was probably for minionminer :P
2009 2011-05-17 15:05:07 <sipa> ...
2010 2011-05-17 15:05:25 <sipa> lower ask rate = more stale shares obvliously, as you're more often working on old data
2011 2011-05-17 15:05:28 <jrmithdobbs> if you ask less often you're more likely to be working on stale data
2012 2011-05-17 15:05:31 <Akinava> sipa, thanks for the info
2013 2011-05-17 15:05:41 <sipa> jrmithdobbs: you know what the word 'rate' means? :)

2090 2011-05-17 15:36:00 <BlueMatt> speaking of which, I think now is the time to start turning on upnp by default
2091 2011-05-17 15:36:05 <BlueMatt> this is getting rediculous

2093 2011-05-17 15:36:17 <jrmithdobbs> how do we get people writing these articles to stop saying txns can't be traced
2094 2011-05-17 15:36:21 <jrmithdobbs> seriously that's infuriating
2095 2011-05-17 15:36:26 <BlueMatt> and only partially because I misspelled ridiculous
2096 2011-05-17 15:36:33 <jrmithdobbs> they can be traced by design
2097 2011-05-17 15:36:41 <ArtForz> jrmithdobbs: yeah
2098 2011-05-17 15:36:54 <ArtForz> calling bitcoin anonymous was imo a mistake
2099 2011-05-17 15:37:00 <BlueMatt> as I said, jason is not writing to write an article, hes writing to get links, its terribly written and people need to stop linking that crap
2100 2011-05-17 15:37:05 <ArtForz> it's pseudonymous really
2101 2011-05-17 15:37:16 <jrmithdobbs> someone put a big flashing red blurb on bitcoin.org that says TRANSACTIONS ARE NOT UNTRACABLE
2102 2011-05-17 15:37:19 <jrmithdobbs> haha
2103 2011-05-17 15:37:37 <z310> not untraceable haha
2104 2011-05-17 15:37:53 <Blitzboom> no, someone put an all-seeing eye there "we are watching you in the block chain"
2105 2011-05-17 15:37:56 <jrmithdobbs> aye it's only anonymous if money never leaves the system and you never spend any you get
2106 2011-05-17 15:38:02 <jrmithdobbs> and you only get them from mining

2110 2011-05-17 15:38:39 <jrmithdobbs> z310: it was intentional
2111 2011-05-17 15:38:53 <z310> yeah. sounds a lot better than "are traceable"

2239 2011-05-17 16:39:55 <TD> i wonder if somebody could set up a CC based seller of bitcoins using something like ccnetpay
2240 2011-05-17 16:40:32 <Mookman288> I believe that would only be successful if you could convince your gateway that they were a product not a currency.
2241 2011-05-17 16:40:52 <TD> ccnetpay claim they accept anything that's legal
2242 2011-05-17 16:40:58 <TD> i am skeptical but they do the "high risk" category
2243 2011-05-17 16:41:18 <Mookman288> Currency conversion is somewhat dangerous.
2244 2011-05-17 16:42:01 <yuzhe> its not problem to setup cc gateway per se
2245 2011-05-17 16:42:17 <yuzhe> trouble arises from the enormous abuse this will involve
2246 2011-05-17 16:42:46 <TheKid> TD: doesn't solve the problem of chargebacks though
2247 2011-05-17 16:42:51 <TD> no, obviously not
2248 2011-05-17 16:42:57 <TheKid> though maybe mndrix can work on that

2255 2011-05-17 16:43:37 <yuzhe> like ccbill
2256 2011-05-17 16:44:10 <yuzhe> they have like 20% comission however to cater for chargebacks
2257 2011-05-17 16:44:32 <TheKid> woah what

2262 2011-05-17 16:44:44 <TD> well, the ones i'm seeing on searches are more like 5%
2263 2011-05-17 16:44:47 <TD> but yeah the rates are pretty crazy
2264 2011-05-17 16:44:49 <jgarzik> mndrix' system was far below paypal's desired fraud rate, even for high risk processors.
2265 2011-05-17 16:44:56 <jgarzik> but somebody got a burr about TOS
2266 2011-05-17 16:45:03 <yuzhe> TheKid: they're dealing with the fraud for you. it's a porn industry :)

2310 2011-05-17 16:53:48 <jgarzik> BlueMatt: I might even need to add -mthreads in addition, in my builds.  maybe mingw32-configure does that under the hood.
2311 2011-05-17 16:53:54 <BlueMatt> jgarzik: yea, bitcoin is set up to use -mthreads and it should but...its not static linking some mingw32 dll which it static links properly on windows

2355 2011-05-17 17:20:49 <TheKid> how feasible would be to increase divisibility?
2356 2011-05-17 17:20:53 <TheKid> like how hard coded is that?
2357 2011-05-17 17:20:55 <TheKid> hi Ghici
2358 2011-05-17 17:20:59 <Ghici> I got a question
2359 2011-05-17 17:21:18 <Mookman288> You should probably just ask away.
2360 2011-05-17 17:21:31 <Ghici> I don't get the part, mine the blocks :S
2361 2011-05-17 17:21:52 <TheKid> explain what you think bitcoin is and how it works
2362 2011-05-17 17:21:55 <TheKid> and we'll go from there
2363 2011-05-17 17:22:19 <Ghici> BitCoin is online wallet, that stores money in a safe place
2364 2011-05-17 17:22:27 <Ghici> I can send/recive/buy items with it
2365 2011-05-17 17:22:28 <Mookman288> Not the way I see it.
2366 2011-05-17 17:22:35 <luke-jr> TheKid: it would be as easy as changing the reward to something other than 50 BTC
2367 2011-05-17 17:22:36 <Ghici> and that's it i guess.
2368 2011-05-17 17:22:50 <luke-jr> TheKid: or the total amount to other than 21million
2369 2011-05-17 17:23:15 <luke-jr> Ghici: mining is just technical details, you can ignore
2370 2011-05-17 17:23:39 <Mookman288> Bitcoin is a currency.

2378 2011-05-17 17:25:56 <Mookman288> So when you mine, through solo or pool, you generate bitcoins.
2379 2011-05-17 17:25:58 <luke-jr> Ghici: you buy/earn them, and don't spend them
2380 2011-05-17 17:26:01 <Mookman288> Or rather, you are "rewarded"

2397 2011-05-17 17:28:44 <TheKid> but to let the client interact with smaller amounts of bitcoins
2398 2011-05-17 17:28:44 <x6763> latregetic: yes, SHA-256, but it's hashed twice: sha256(sha256(blockheader))

2400 2011-05-17 17:29:15 <latregetic> awesome, thanks
2401 2011-05-17 17:29:15 <TheKid> we may as well get a head start

2404 2011-05-17 17:29:37 <Mookman288> What are you arguing latregetic?
2405 2011-05-17 17:29:40 <luke-jr> TheKid: those two things are just as difficult

2413 2011-05-17 17:31:57 <TheKid> luke-jr: not arguing the difference in difficulty
2414 2011-05-17 17:32:10 <TheKid> but that one would devalue all other btc in circulation
2415 2011-05-17 17:32:10 <latregetic> depending on the FPGA, optimization, and command/control overhead, you could see anywhere from 50Gh/sec to 3.3Th/sec
2416 2011-05-17 17:32:22 <latregetic> on a $400 board
2417 2011-05-17 17:32:26 <luke-jr> TheKid: or increase the value, potentially
2418 2011-05-17 17:32:54 <luke-jr> TheKid: but it would break compatibility with older clients, so the original client will never merge it
2419 2011-05-17 17:33:13 <luke-jr> TheKid: if you want it, help reduce its market share
2420 2011-05-17 17:33:27 <ArtForz> latregetic: ROFL
2421 2011-05-17 17:33:38 <ArtForz> off by a few orders of magnitude
2422 2011-05-17 17:34:23 <latregetic> How so?
2423 2011-05-17 17:34:37 <ArtForz> on a $400 *board* you're lucky to get 30Mhps
2424 2011-05-17 17:34:47 <ArtForz> on a $400 *chip* you might get 100
2425 2011-05-17 17:35:04 <latregetic> This is also using ebay prices on used (maybe) working gear
2426 2011-05-17 17:35:12 <latregetic> new prices are probably 10-25x that
2427 2011-05-17 17:35:17 <ArtForz> aka "old, small and slow as fuck"
2428 2011-05-17 17:35:36 <latregetic> yeah, probably
2429 2011-05-17 17:35:47 <TheKid> luke-jr: of course it would break compatibility, but it could be something like at block 210000, new txs will be accepted down to .000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000001 or something

2440 2011-05-17 17:37:39 <luke-jr> TheKid: if we're going to do that, we should switch to varint fractions
2441 2011-05-17 17:37:57 <latregetic> ArtForz:  I stand corrected, the $400 price point isn't correct
2442 2011-05-17 17:38:11 <latregetic> but the hashes/second values looks correct to one order of magnitude
2443 2011-05-17 17:38:23 <diki> Can someone answer me this: I am going to get another 5850 to mine....after the diff continues to increase...will it still be able to produce 200+ shares per hour on a pool?
2444 2011-05-17 17:38:27 <ArtForz> errr... nope
2445 2011-05-17 17:38:37 <ArtForz> maybe rounds/second
2446 2011-05-17 17:38:41 <ArtForz> but not hashes
2447 2011-05-17 17:38:43 <luke-jr> diki: yes

2470 2011-05-17 17:43:18 <ArtForz> even figuring in volume discount, $50k is probably way too low

2476 2011-05-17 17:43:50 <latregetic> The other question is if these boxes were basically idle because they're college compute engines, then the marginal cost is the electricity and bandwidth
2477 2011-05-17 17:43:53 <diki> So luke, did you on pushpool create your own sqlite3 tables for users and stuff like that ?
2478 2011-05-17 17:43:58 KBme has joined
2479 2011-05-17 17:44:03 <latregetic> buying new is retarded, but borowing free time is not
2480 2011-05-17 17:44:07 <luke-jr> diki: yes, when I was using sqlite3
2481 2011-05-17 17:44:16 <ArtForz> latregetic: true
2482 2011-05-17 17:44:18 <TheKid> luke-jr: even changing it so that it accepts txs after a certain block down to a certain divisibility would be impossible to code in without breaking everything?
2483 2011-05-17 17:44:21 <diki> Did you have to change a lot of code to acomodate the new tables ?
2484 2011-05-17 17:44:25 <luke-jr> no
2485 2011-05-17 17:44:28 <quup> is there some faster way to try out stuff than the testnet?
2486 2011-05-17 17:44:47 <TheKid> seems like it could be two different functions, sendtx and sendtx_210000
2487 2011-05-17 17:44:48 <diki> I am just wondering what kind of modifications i will have to do to make it work
2488 2011-05-17 17:45:00 <luke-jr> TheKid: output
2489 2011-05-17 17:45:01 <TheKid> sendtx_210000 would be what bitcoin uses after block 210000
2490 2011-05-17 17:45:02 <diki> I mean, it compiled, it runs ok...
2491 2011-05-17 17:45:07 <TheKid> luke-jr: ?
2492 2011-05-17 17:45:20 <luke-jr> diki: it's fine as-is. you just need to use your head.
2493 2011-05-17 17:45:25 <sacarlson> TheKid: I'm not sure what your talking about you can already transact very small numbers
2494 2011-05-17 17:45:39 <luke-jr> TheKid: it might be viable with something like the new wallet protocol, if it's introduced off-the-bat
2495 2011-05-17 17:45:49 <diki> What about the balances file in the json format...i didnt notice such code in pushpool
2496 2011-05-17 17:46:04 <luke-jr> diki: pushpool isn't a whole pool
2497 2011-05-17 17:46:32 <diki> So..you wrote more code to make it work?
2498 2011-05-17 17:46:35 <TheKid> sacarlson: yes, but we may as well increase divisibility far below what we'll need before it becomes an issue
2499 2011-05-17 17:46:43 <luke-jr> diki: I wrote the code for the other parts of a pool
2500 2011-05-17 17:46:57 <TheKid> my point is that there is concern about only 8 decimal places, why not add more to safeguard against it
2501 2011-05-17 17:47:00 agricocb has quit (Remote host closed the connection)
2502 2011-05-17 17:47:06 <diki> In C i assume
2503 2011-05-17 17:47:11 <luke-jr> diki: no
2504 2011-05-17 17:47:18 <sacarlson> TheKid: just move the decimal place when you need to type too many zeros
2505 2011-05-17 17:47:28 <latregetic> at 8 decimal places, most people can't really understand it
2506 2011-05-17 17:47:35 <diki> Then luke, i see nothing else than http://dashjr.org/~luke-jr/programs/bitcoin/pool/
2507 2011-05-17 17:47:40 <latregetic> at least on the viceral 'this cost me x monies' level
2508 2011-05-17 17:47:46 <TheKid> sacarlson: I'm talking about moving the decimal place
2509 2011-05-17 17:47:49 <Titeuf_87> quup, you could look at having your own personal testnet: http://sourceforge.net/projects/bitcoin/files/Bitcoin/testnet-in-a-box/
2510 2011-05-17 17:47:50 <TheKid> er, no
2511 2011-05-17 17:47:53 <luke-jr> sacarlson: that doesn't help you divide by 3
2512 2011-05-17 17:47:54 <TheKid> allowing further divisibility
2513 2011-05-17 17:47:58 <sacarlson> TheKid: well we also have infinite number of encrypted chains
2514 2011-05-17 17:48:07 <TheKid> of what?
2515 2011-05-17 17:48:23 <quup> Titeuf_87: fantastic, thanks
2516 2011-05-17 17:48:27 <sacarlson> TheKid: like weeds we already have more than one
2517 2011-05-17 17:48:36 <TheKid> sacarlson: what are you talking about
2518 2011-05-17 17:48:51 <TheKid> I'm trying to follow, but you lost me at encrypted chains
2519 2011-05-17 17:48:54 <TheKid> the block chain?
2520 2011-05-17 17:49:03 <sacarlson> TheKid: you wanted more coins so I made more
2521 2011-05-17 17:49:11 <TheKid> no
2522 2011-05-17 17:49:14 <TheKid> that is different
2523 2011-05-17 17:49:17 <TheKid> I don't want more coins
2524 2011-05-17 17:49:21 <TheKid> listen carefully
2525 2011-05-17 17:49:23 <quup> Titeuf_87: it wont try to find nodes or anything and confuse people?
2526 2011-05-17 17:49:44 <TheKid> I propose allowing further divisibility of the 21 mil coins we will have
2527 2011-05-17 17:49:55 <luke-jr> 21 mil BTC*
2528 2011-05-17 17:50:01 <TheKid> right
2529 2011-05-17 17:50:04 <luke-jr> which results in more raw bitcoins
2530 2011-05-17 17:50:12 <TheKid> no
2531 2011-05-17 17:50:20 <luke-jr> yes
2532 2011-05-17 17:50:25 <TheKid> well, wait, by raw bitcoins do you mean base units/
2533 2011-05-17 17:50:28 <luke-jr> there are 21 quintillion raw bitcoins
2534 2011-05-17 17:50:30 <TheKid> if so, then yes
2535 2011-05-17 17:50:32 <sacarlson> TheKid: plus the 210000000000000000000000000 weeds
2536 2011-05-17 17:50:34 <edcba> TheKid: difficult to do
2537 2011-05-17 17:50:51 <Titeuf_87> quup, no, it's really your own personal testnet, with two nodes by default, but you can easily add more by copying the configs provided
2538 2011-05-17 17:51:09 <luke-jr> TheKid: anyhow, it doesn't matter. gavin et al will never merge it
2539 2011-05-17 17:51:21 <TheKid> edcba: it could potentially be a problem with only 8 decimals of divisibility, and it is easier to change now
2540 2011-05-17 17:51:25 <quup> Titeuf_87: great, thanks
2541 2011-05-17 17:51:33 <sacarlson> TheKid: I think we will already have more units of btc than all the currency on the planet today
2542 2011-05-17 17:51:54 <luke-jr> sacarlson: we don't, and won't.
2543 2011-05-17 17:52:17 <diki> If 6 mil blocks were found for 2-3 years
2544 2011-05-17 17:52:20 <luke-jr> sacarlson: bitcoin volume grows linearly, at best. human population grows exponentially, normally
2545 2011-05-17 17:52:23 <diki> then it would be around 10 to find the rest
2546 2011-05-17 17:52:30 <TheKid> sacarlson: yes, but planning for the future is something we should do
2547 2011-05-17 17:53:28 <sacarlson> luke-jr: TheKid  well if they run out I guess they will need more of my weeds and I'll make my beer coins with 256 bit int to be safe
2548 2011-05-17 17:53:28 <luke-jr> TheKid: quantum computing is liable to become a bigger problem first

2553 2011-05-17 17:53:59 <luke-jr> latregetic: there aren't 21 quintillion in circulation
2554 2011-05-17 17:54:06 <TheKid> but we can't really work against that as far as I know

2558 2011-05-17 17:54:20 <luke-jr> TheKid: it's just difficult :P
2559 2011-05-17 17:54:20 <latregetic> 21 million total with 8 decimal places of divisibility?
2560 2011-05-17 17:54:22 <yuzhe> qunatum crypto btc2.0!
2561 2011-05-17 17:54:29 <latregetic> well, 21 mil total eventually
2562 2011-05-17 17:55:02 <TheKid> luke-jr: as difficult as adding divisibility?
2563 2011-05-17 17:55:11 <luke-jr> no, more difficult
2564 2011-05-17 17:55:18 <luke-jr> adding divisibility doesn't require brain power
2565 2011-05-17 17:55:22 <luke-jr> just decision making
2566 2011-05-17 17:55:31 <TheKid> yeah
2567 2011-05-17 17:55:31 <luke-jr> dealing with quantum issues requires brain power

2570 2011-05-17 17:55:41 <TheKid> easier*
2571 2011-05-17 17:55:43 <luke-jr> no
2572 2011-05-17 17:55:55 <luke-jr> it's so easy, it can be taken forgranted when the bigger problem is solved
2573 2011-05-17 17:56:08 <topi`> luke-jr: is there a way to see the current hash rate of eligius?
2574 2011-05-17 17:56:15 <luke-jr> topi`: not right now, sorry
2575 2011-05-17 17:56:18 <topi`> so that I can calculate how much my shares are worth
2576 2011-05-17 17:56:26 <TheKid> I disagree- we don't want to get caught with our pants down like what has happened with ipv4
2577 2011-05-17 17:56:29 <luke-jr> topi`: http://eligius.st/~luke-jr/raw/hashrate.txt is the closest you can get
2578 2011-05-17 17:57:07 <topi`> that seems to be around 5 gigahas
2579 2011-05-17 17:57:08 <topi`> h
2580 2011-05-17 17:57:22 <diki> So what other part of the pool did you write luke? The php file called hashrate?

2585 2011-05-17 17:57:39 <diki> isn't that already there?
2586 2011-05-17 17:57:43 <luke-jr> diki: no
2587 2011-05-17 17:57:44 zirpu has left ()
2588 2011-05-17 17:57:49 <XX01XX> Would anyone be interested in using the P2P blockchain system to control ownership of Monetary Data Tokens without attached denomination?
2589 2011-05-17 17:58:05 <luke-jr> XX01XX: no. go away. :P
2590 2011-05-17 17:58:07 <latregetic> what?
2591 2011-05-17 17:58:10 <diki> So you wrote this in pushpool's code and recompiled?
2592 2011-05-17 17:58:14 <luke-jr> diki: no.
2593 2011-05-17 17:58:14 <Titeuf_87> quup, if you want transactions to get confirmed, then yes, you'll need to generate. But the difficulty is low, so it shouldn't take too long.
2594 2011-05-17 17:58:22 <diki> Then please be more descriptive
2595 2011-05-17 17:58:25 <luke-jr> diki: no.
2596 2011-05-17 17:58:29 <diki> lol
2597 2011-05-17 17:58:40 <luke-jr> I refuse to help idiots who can't think for themselves.
2598 2011-05-17 17:58:44 <luke-jr> sorry
2599 2011-05-17 17:58:48 <diki> and i think of myself, because...?
2600 2011-05-17 17:58:49 <XX01XX> Rather than trading any particular currency, it would just be a token... all associations with money and value would be determined offline.
2601 2011-05-17 17:58:59 <latregetic> What's the average transaction time to get 6 verifications?
2602 2011-05-17 17:59:04 <quup> Titeuf_87: seconds/minutes/hours on a core2 2GHz?
2603 2011-05-17 17:59:10 <TheKid> latregetic: less than an hour
2604 2011-05-17 17:59:13 <luke-jr> latregetic: an hour, if you paid a reasonably high fee
2605 2011-05-17 17:59:28 <TheKid> depending on transaction priority of course
2606 2011-05-17 17:59:43 <sacarlson> XX01XX: like a smartcard I guess
2607 2011-05-17 17:59:51 <luke-jr> latregetic: note that 6 verifications is equivalent to 6 months after a credit card purchase
2608 2011-05-17 17:59:57 <luke-jr> in terms of security
2609 2011-05-17 18:00:04 <latregetic> yeah
2610 2011-05-17 18:00:06 <Titeuf_87> quup, umm, I only generated one block, I think it took around 15 minutes on a similar cpu, but I'm not sure anymore
2611 2011-05-17 18:00:20 <luke-jr> Titeuf_87: CPUs can't generate blocks
2612 2011-05-17 18:00:34 <quup> Titeuf_87: ok
2613 2011-05-17 18:00:40 <luke-jr> oh, testnet
2614 2011-05-17 18:00:43 <Titeuf_87> luke-jr, on the testnet
2615 2011-05-17 18:00:57 <XX01XX> sacarlson... well, the point would be that you could entrench the system in non-money transactions... you could hook facebook thumbs, reddit upvotes, diggs, etc. into the system
2616 2011-05-17 18:01:05 <latregetic> What's the rough computational complexity for computing one block, in terms of hashs?
2617 2011-05-17 18:01:12 <diki> So you wrote the core...which is not in C...there are no files or front end....what the hell did you write?
2618 2011-05-17 18:01:18 <luke-jr> latregetic: varies
2619 2011-05-17 18:01:21 <diki> If it's the tables, that's not the core lol
2620 2011-05-17 18:01:40 <luke-jr> diki: there are files, just not ones for you to see
2621 2011-05-17 18:01:42 <latregetic> On the total number of transactions in the block, or random luck?
2622 2011-05-17 18:01:52 <luke-jr> latregetic: on how many people are mining
2623 2011-05-17 18:01:59 <luke-jr> and what their total hash rate is
2624 2011-05-17 18:02:07 <sacarlson> XX01XX: but you want them offline so you need some way of encypting the data on both cards that you pass value from one to the other
2625 2011-05-17 18:02:45 <latregetic> No, I meant, to have a 95% chance to calculate one block, you need to randomly guess 17.9 trillion hashes before you get one that satifies the proof of work requirement
2626 2011-05-17 18:02:50 <TheKid> wait, luke-jr is the divisibility limit in the client or the protocol

2629 2011-05-17 18:03:46 <XX01XX> sacarlson... by, offline, I mean I would show you that a particular monetary data token in my custody on the network had been digitally signed as electronic currency in a value of $100.
2630 2011-05-17 18:04:11 <latregetic> XX01XX:  What stops double spending?
2631 2011-05-17 18:04:27 <latregetic> A single provider signing the token and backing it with BTC?
2632 2011-05-17 18:04:35 <XX01XX> But there would be not indication that the data token had been signed to be $100.   It could jsut as easily be a random karma token from a social website

2636 2011-05-17 18:04:51 <iera> TheKid: read the code :p
2637 2011-05-17 18:04:54 <luke-jr> TheKid: the source code
2638 2011-05-17 18:04:54 <XX01XX> latregetic... same things that stop double spending in bitcoin... the ownership of the data token
2639 2011-05-17 18:04:56 <diki> And what do these file do?
2640 2011-05-17 18:05:23 <sacarlson> XX01XX: we have spoken of such things before using escow you could have an offline entity with some security but not as much as you have online
2641 2011-05-17 18:06:03 <TheKid> luke-jr: for someone who doesn't want to misinterpret code, and is bad at reading it to begin with, where should I look
2642 2011-05-17 18:06:06 <sacarlson> XX01XX: but for smaller purchases people would be willing to take the risk on both sides

2651 2011-05-17 18:07:24 <XX01XX> MDTs, rather
2652 2011-05-17 18:07:50 <XX01XX> The point is what you're using them as or for is not known on the network controlling their exchange and custody
2653 2011-05-17 18:07:56 <latregetic> Ownership of a 'token' doesn't give you shit unless you can verify the ownership and verify what the token is

2660 2011-05-17 18:09:05 <latregetic> So you're basically selling an address that has a few BTC on it on an SD card?
2661 2011-05-17 18:09:11 <sacarlson> XX01XX: how would you teach people to trust your system and how would they use it?
2662 2011-05-17 18:09:18 <TheKid> latregetic: kind of, but not really
2663 2011-05-17 18:09:31 <XX01XX> No... this has nothing to do with bitcoin... it's a system that uses a similar P2P blockchain for transaction history
2664 2011-05-17 18:09:58 <XX01XX> sacarlson... I'd probably start it out trading the various karma tokesn on social websites.
2665 2011-05-17 18:10:01 <sacarlson> XX01XX: yes like the stock market idea I had with multi chains
2666 2011-05-17 18:10:17 <latregetic> XX01XX:  Is this a physical token, like a SD card, or is it a digital token, like a key file/wallet?
2667 2011-05-17 18:10:45 <XX01XX> latragetic... it's data.   It's basically a bitcoin, but it's acknowledged to have no value.
2668 2011-05-17 18:10:55 <latregetic> Then why would anyone take them?

2678 2011-05-17 18:11:57 <XX01XX> latregetic... can you spend bitcoins over and over and over?
2679 2011-05-17 18:12:01 <latregetic> Yes, you can apply the proof of work chain concept to trading anything you like, with any gind of derived or fiat value you care to list
2680 2011-05-17 18:12:15 <latregetic> you could in theory trade gamerscore on xbox live the same way
2681 2011-05-17 18:12:21 <zool> how do i install a bitcoin node so i can mine my coins and how do i get em on a wallet thats hosted on the web?
2682 2011-05-17 18:12:26 <latregetic> XX01XX:  if you do so offline, yes you can
2683 2011-05-17 18:12:31 <sacarlson> XX01XX: it's just another chain that you can define the value to be anything you or your group wants to be and can distrbute online or with cards

2692 2011-05-17 18:14:06 <zool> well i want to run a node
2693 2011-05-17 18:14:09 <neoeinstein_> Thoughts on an idea: Right now, checkpoint block hashes are used to increase the difficulty of backtracking on the main block chain.
2694 2011-05-17 18:14:15 <neoeinstein_> Would it be more advantageous to calculate a merkle tree of the block hashes from a checkpoint block up (possibly to the genesis block?), and use the value of that merkle root to determine validity?
2695 2011-05-17 18:14:17 <zool> i guess there should be a program to download right?
2696 2011-05-17 18:14:21 <neoeinstein_> It might be a bit slower when such a checkpoint is encountered, but it would serve in part to verify all the blocks in that chain segment rather than just the checkpoint block.
2697 2011-05-17 18:14:25 <Titeuf_87> quup, you have to start the first one first. Do you get the same message there?

2708 2011-05-17 18:16:26 <luke-jr> XX01XX: BTC is not hard-coded into the blockchain already
2709 2011-05-17 18:16:29 <sacarlson> XX01XX: yes we have it already with mutichain clients
2710 2011-05-17 18:16:34 <quup> Titeuf_87: fiddled around with nolisten and that works as workaround I guess
2711 2011-05-17 18:16:39 <latregetic> Probably because it has that amazing gold rush mining thing going for it
2712 2011-05-17 18:16:45 <luke-jr> XX01XX: TBC shares the same block chain as BTC
2713 2011-05-17 18:16:54 <BlueMatt> -mthreads == dep on mingw thread dll, -D_MT -lmingwthrd != random dll dep...and yet according to what I can see from gcc source, they are fucking the same
2714 2011-05-17 18:17:00 <BlueMatt> wtf gcc
2715 2011-05-17 18:17:07 <Titeuf_87> quup, when you launch bitcoin with -datadir=1, it should open port 18333 and listen on it. Launching it with -datadir=2 should then connect to the already running bitcoin instance
2716 2011-05-17 18:17:28 <iera> luke-jr: does eligius still pay out at least by 1btc? can you change it to 0.01?
2717 2011-05-17 18:17:42 <Titeuf_87> quup, the bitcoin.conf file in 2/bitcoin.conf already sets the nolisten option, so I'm not sure why that option doesn't work for you
2718 2011-05-17 18:17:42 <luke-jr> iera: I can, but 1 BTC seems more reasonable for now
2719 2011-05-17 18:17:53 <luke-jr> iera: if the value keeps skyrocketting I might lower it a little
2720 2011-05-17 18:17:57 <iera> luke-jr: hm ok
2721 2011-05-17 18:17:58 <XX01XX> What's a multichain client?
2722 2011-05-17 18:18:06 <XX01XX> As in an example.. not an explaination
2723 2011-05-17 18:18:45 <luke-jr> iera: probably closer to .16 BTC
2724 2011-05-17 18:18:56 <quup> Titeuf_87: oh I probably removed it when first messing around with it :)
2725 2011-05-17 18:19:02 <sacarlson> Titeuf_87: I think in bitcoin even in -testnet it still uses the same port for rpcport control
2726 2011-05-17 18:19:27 <quup> Titeuf_87: but does nolisten also affect rpc?
2727 2011-05-17 18:19:42 <sacarlson> quup: no I don't think so
2728 2011-05-17 18:19:46 <Titeuf_87> sacarlson, it does, but that is also set in the bitcoin.conf file to avoid conflicts

2806 2011-05-17 18:36:09 <lfm> jrmithdobbs: you can get a getopt for mswin too if you try
2807 2011-05-17 18:36:20 <sacarlson> jrmithdobbs: you only really need one command line option to point to -datadir=/your/path/  and put the rest in the bitcoin.conf there

2812 2011-05-17 18:37:59 <jrmithdobbs> using a single '-' for longopts is just nonstandard and confusing

2841 2011-05-17 18:43:39 <luke-jr> raw might be special enough for top-level
2842 2011-05-17 18:43:49 <jrmithdobbs> luke-jr: oh no it doesn't need to be run server side it just parses the json
2843 2011-05-17 18:44:08 <luke-jr> jrmithdobbs: I'd almost prefer it be server-side ;)
2844 2011-05-17 18:44:30 <jrmithdobbs> luke-jr: give it your btc address and it spits out current hash/s in Ghash, last block payout, and current balance ;P

2859 2011-05-17 18:48:31 <jrmithdobbs> luke-jr: i want it split out by region since they're doing payouts seperately the combined hashrate isn't a useful number to me
2860 2011-05-17 18:48:35 <Gozalie> anyone know the problem ?
2861 2011-05-17 18:48:40 <jrmithdobbs> luke-jr: make since?

2973 2011-05-17 19:15:21 <BlueMatt> bitcointrader: and is it low prio?
2974 2011-05-17 19:15:31 <wumpus> huh the certificate for the forum changed
2975 2011-05-17 19:15:47 <bitcointrader> yes

2977 2011-05-17 19:15:52 <topi`> what's the definition for a low prio tx?
2978 2011-05-17 19:15:56 <Blitzboom> BlueMatt: forum layout broken, images too, can’t login: "You should fill in a username."
2979 2011-05-17 19:16:01 <Blitzboom> it doesn’t work on any browser

2982 2011-05-17 19:16:16 <Blitzboom> so i guess it has something to do with my connection
2983 2011-05-17 19:16:22 <XX01XX> roconnor... you know how the system works with the blockchain and transaction history?
2984 2011-05-17 19:16:26 <Blitzboom> WFM?
2985 2011-05-17 19:16:29 <roconnor> yes
2986 2011-05-17 19:16:35 <BlueMatt> Blitzboom: works for mw

2988 2011-05-17 19:16:40 <BlueMatt> topi`: it depends on age of txins, txout total, and fee
2989 2011-05-17 19:16:46 <wumpus> if you go to http://forum.bitcoin.org/smf/ and click a link you go back to http :s
2990 2011-05-17 19:16:47 <Blitzboom> i know one other person with this problem
2991 2011-05-17 19:16:50 <Blitzboom> located in the UK
2992 2011-05-17 19:16:58 <wumpus> I mean https://forum.bitcoin.org/smf/
2993 2011-05-17 19:17:15 <XX01XX> roconnor... folks that are generating new blocks gather up a bunch of the outstanding transactions... on the basis of priority.   Low priority transactions may not be included and will take longer to be confirmed.
2994 2011-05-17 19:17:27 <jrmithdobbs> Blitzboom: dns issue i'm sure be patient it'll get sorted
2995 2011-05-17 19:17:39 <Blitzboom> thanks
2996 2011-05-17 19:17:39 <BlueMatt> wumpus: woo, he set up the dns
2997 2011-05-17 19:17:50 <roconnor> why wouldn't you include a transaction?
2998 2011-05-17 19:18:02 <jrmithdobbs> roconnor: more processing required for no payout
2999 2011-05-17 19:18:23 <jrmithdobbs> capitalism at it's best.
3000 2011-05-17 19:18:37 <roconnor> the amount of extra processing is close to trivial, but let me rephrase
3001 2011-05-17 19:18:49 <wumpus> doesn't seem to be a dns issue -- the links are simply wrong
3002 2011-05-17 19:18:53 <XX01XX> roconnor... because you only pick up a fixed size of transactions before you start trying to hash a new block.
3003 2011-05-17 19:18:54 <roconnor> why wouldn't you include a transaction now that you would accept if it were older?

3008 2011-05-17 19:19:14 <BlueMatt> its still a WIP
3009 2011-05-17 19:19:15 <jrmithdobbs> yes but if everyone always includes low prio txn it kills the incentive to add fees to prio processing
3010 2011-05-17 19:19:21 <XX01XX> roxonnor... because you already have enough higher-priorty txns to hash
3011 2011-05-17 19:19:24 <jrmithdobbs> roconnor: make sense?
3012 2011-05-17 19:19:29 <wumpus> ok..
3013 2011-05-17 19:19:34 <XX01XX> When the txn is older it will have higher priority
3014 2011-05-17 19:19:38 <BlueMatt> jrmithdobbs: people dont, there is a strict limit (by default) of space reserved for low prio
3015 2011-05-17 19:19:42 <roconnor> jrmithdobbs: not entirely
3016 2011-05-17 19:19:53 <BlueMatt> hence currently low prios almost never make it into a block until they reach normal prio
3017 2011-05-17 19:19:58 <jrmithdobbs> BlueMatt: right i know, trying to simplify

3019 2011-05-17 19:20:17 * BlueMatt is waiting for this js-x86-vm to have network support :)
3020 2011-05-17 19:20:36 <roconnor> age of a transaction seems like it ought to mostly irrelvenet for making the decision to include it or not.
3021 2011-05-17 19:20:47 <BlueMatt> no, the whole point is spam
3022 2011-05-17 19:20:48 <jrmithdobbs> roconnor: the idea is to discourage txns that would get marked as low prio in the first place as a means of sustaining the system long term
3023 2011-05-17 19:20:53 <jrmithdobbs> roconnor: and to prevent spam
3024 2011-05-17 19:20:54 <BlueMatt> if your txes are new, its spam
3025 2011-05-17 19:20:55 <jrmithdobbs> heh
3026 2011-05-17 19:21:05 <BlueMatt> or more likely to be
3027 2011-05-17 19:21:08 <roconnor> how does it become not spam with age?
3028 2011-05-17 19:21:20 <BlueMatt> well its not spam if you can only send it once/day
3029 2011-05-17 19:21:29 <BlueMatt> or at least we dont care anymore
3030 2011-05-17 19:21:31 <XX01XX> roconnor... at this point, yes.   if the system catches on to where the number of txns routinely exceeds ore size, it will be more important.
3031 2011-05-17 19:21:36 <jrmithdobbs> it becomes more acceptable spam if you get delayed forever because of it
3032 2011-05-17 19:21:38 <roconnor> someone is queuing these transactions?
3033 2011-05-17 19:21:59 scottlad has joined
3034 2011-05-17 19:21:59 <jrmithdobbs> the network as a whole queues them
3035 2011-05-17 19:22:19 <jrmithdobbs> roconnor: and bitcoind can be easily modified to never process fee-less txns or low prio ones
3036 2011-05-17 19:22:21 <roconnor> I don't understand this anti-spam measure
3037 2011-05-17 19:22:29 <BlueMatt> roconnor: had you not seen the lines of 0.01->0.01->0.01->0.01->0.01->0.01->0.01->0.01 txes before 0.3.21
3038 2011-05-17 19:22:50 <roconnor> oh I believe it
3039 2011-05-17 19:22:59 <roconnor> but I don't see how delaying processing them will help
3040 2011-05-17 19:23:00 <XX01XX> roconnor...  it's a novelty, people send BTC to each other just because they can.
3041 2011-05-17 19:23:04 <jrmithdobbs> it discourages people from doing stupid shit like that
3042 2011-05-17 19:23:25 <jrmithdobbs> because their funds will be tied up indefinitely
3043 2011-05-17 19:23:26 <BlueMatt> because it simply leaves space for real txes and keeps spam from wasteing bw and hdd space
3044 2011-05-17 19:23:29 scottlad is now known as scotty15y
3045 2011-05-17 19:23:51 <roconnor> but how does the transaction aging make it less spamy
3046 2011-05-17 19:24:01 <scotty15y> anyone buying or selling?
3047 2011-05-17 19:24:04 <roconnor> shouldn't low priority txs simply be dropped from the network?
3048 2011-05-17 19:24:05 <BlueMatt> it doesnt, it just keeps spam from effecting people as much
3049 2011-05-17 19:24:08 <jrmithdobbs> scotty15y: wrong channel
3050 2011-05-17 19:24:09 <BlueMatt> scotty15y: #bitcoin-otc

3059 2011-05-17 19:24:47 <BlueMatt> roconnor: no, because many of them arent actually spam, like bitcointrader's tx

3102 2011-05-17 19:28:48 <luke-jr> (if you do need hosting though, go with me ;)
3103 2011-05-17 19:28:48 <BlueMatt> ne0futur: those are hardly warnings
3104 2011-05-17 19:29:03 <BlueMatt> ne0futur: they dont effect anything really
3105 2011-05-17 19:29:36 <ne0futur> is you say so :p
3106 2011-05-17 19:29:43 <BlueMatt> yes, yes I do...
3107 2011-05-17 19:29:52 <BlueMatt> dns resolvers tend to be very forgiving
3108 2011-05-17 19:30:04 <luke-jr> BlueMatt: there's a failure too
3109 2011-05-17 19:30:06 <BlueMatt> typically even more forgiving than dns servers are when it comes to loading zones
3110 2011-05-17 19:30:11 <psymin> I haven't used bitcoin in a while .. I remember needing to open some ports so that I could download a list of trusted ppl to auth with? .. I'm trying to run the 32 bit linux binary and I currently have 'no connections'
3111 2011-05-17 19:30:16 <BlueMatt> that failure isnt a failure, its a warning
3112 2011-05-17 19:30:34 <luke-jr> it's a failure.
3113 2011-05-17 19:30:44 <BlueMatt> luke-jr: its marked as one
3114 2011-05-17 19:31:01 <BlueMatt> psymin: the whole connection thing is a real pita atm...though opening port 8333, or turning on upnp to do it for you, will help
3115 2011-05-17 19:31:24 <psymin> gotcha, I'll do that at home then :)
3116 2011-05-17 19:31:28 <jrmithdobbs> ne0futur: that check is retarded.
3117 2011-05-17 19:31:41 <jrmithdobbs> ne0futur: none of those are issues and if you think they are you don't understand dns.

3130 2011-05-17 19:35:19 <BlueMatt> meh, as I said, dns resolvers are so forgiving following rfc's closely doesnt really matter anymore, as long as its remotely sane, it will work

3199 2011-05-17 19:44:41 <jrmithdobbs> haha
3200 2011-05-17 19:44:42 <z310> they got BIG
3201 2011-05-17 19:45:00 <z310> like i disappeared for a year but
3202 2011-05-17 19:45:09 <z310> i was like the third guy generating coins
3203 2011-05-17 19:45:14 <grbgout> lulzplzkthx: I'm actually logging in to post on that writing 1kBTC bounty thread with a warning.
3204 2011-05-17 19:45:32 <Nesetalis> -starts fiending for the forum- D: i'm addicted to bitcoins.. must.. get.. my.. fix.
3205 2011-05-17 19:45:39 <BlueMatt> the what thread now?
3206 2011-05-17 19:45:46 <jrmithdobbs> the who what
3207 2011-05-17 19:46:03 <lulzplzkthx> heh grbgout
3208 2011-05-17 19:46:04 <jrmithdobbs> warning about what? people not paying out bounties any more?
3209 2011-05-17 19:46:06 <grbgout> BlueMatt: there's a writing-bounty thread, with a proclaimed 1000BTC bounty.
3210 2011-05-17 19:46:08 <lulzplzkthx> warning for what?
3211 2011-05-17 19:46:16 <BlueMatt> that the bounty is bs?
3212 2011-05-17 19:46:21 <lulzplzkthx> it's not exactly a bounty, tbh.
3213 2011-05-17 19:46:23 <grbgout> lulzplzkthx: it smacks of a ripoff.  You'll see when I post, it's a pretty common approach.
3214 2011-05-17 19:46:23 <BlueMatt> writing what though?
3215 2011-05-17 19:46:31 <lulzplzkthx> yes, it does sound like a ripoff.
3216 2011-05-17 19:46:31 <grbgout> lulzplzkthx: indeed
3217 2011-05-17 19:46:32 <jrmithdobbs> lulzplzkthx: people are offering bounties and then backing out
3218 2011-05-17 19:46:42 <grbgout> lulzplzkthx: and that's part of why you know it is likely what I'm thinking it is.

3263 2011-05-17 19:51:59 <jrmithdobbs> that's an obvious scam
3264 2011-05-17 19:52:10 <BlueMatt> or more realistic, people who dont have time to do the shit they do anyway
3265 2011-05-17 19:52:19 <BlueMatt> (thanks sirius )
3266 2011-05-17 19:52:42 <lulzplzkthx> what's sirius doing?
3267 2011-05-17 19:53:21 <jrmithdobbs> splitting the forums off so /. / reddit /etc destroy the frontpage on sf.net hosting instead of making the whole thing unusable
3268 2011-05-17 19:54:03 <lulzplzkthx> lolk
3269 2011-05-17 19:54:04 <BlueMatt> "The wikipedia page "List of Numbers" opens with "This list is incomplete, you can help by expanding it"" - oh the wonderful factoids you lean by reading xkcd

3277 2011-05-17 19:56:50 <BlueMatt> why do our forum mods not ban enough?
3278 2011-05-17 19:56:59 <lulzplzkthx> ^ this.
3279 2011-05-17 19:57:00 <grbgout> There, replied.
3280 2011-05-17 19:57:04 <grbgout> jrmithdobbs: lol, I see you did too.
3281 2011-05-17 19:57:05 <jrmithdobbs> do I bitch at my apt people to fix not having the microwave on it's own circuit breaker (out of code spec and fire hazard) or wait until i have these miner nodes out of it first so they don't try and pull some "lol ur running commercial equipment now evicted" thing on me
3282 2011-05-17 19:57:27 <lulzplzkthx> even when someone scams, they aren't banned. but i realized that if you ban someone who scams, it doesn't help anyway. thye've already disappeared. you just keep them from coming back and explaining or anything
3283 2011-05-17 19:57:29 <grbgout> jrmithdobbs: wiat until you move the miners
3284 2011-05-17 19:57:34 <grbgout> jrmithdobbs: don't give them a rebuttal.

3287 2011-05-17 19:58:01 <jrmithdobbs> so glad i usually only have to deal with commercial power. this residential shit is ghetto as fuck.
3288 2011-05-17 19:58:07 <gmaxwell> jrmithdobbs: the form needs a scammer badge that everyone but the scammer can see.
3289 2011-05-17 19:58:21 <grbgout> gmaxwell: lol!
3290 2011-05-17 19:58:25 <jrmithdobbs> lol

3307 2011-05-17 20:01:37 <jrmithdobbs> grbgout: nah but i know the gist of it. It's a lesson i had to learn contracting
3308 2011-05-17 20:01:44 <jrmithdobbs> everyone who contracts figures it out at some point.

3325 2011-05-17 20:08:38 <ArtForzZz> THE LAW as you put it, requires a company to maximize shareholder value
3326 2011-05-17 20:08:54 <ArtForzZz> though plenty idiots think that means next quarter earnings, it doesn't
3327 2011-05-17 20:08:56 <lfm> Mookman288: is the hardware yours or just the vm?
3328 2011-05-17 20:09:05 <jrmithdobbs> ArtForzZz: it's an oversimplification, i'm aware
3329 2011-05-17 20:09:18 <Mookman288> The VM is sitting on top of the host, which is on top of the hardware. I own both. The VM virtualizes it's hardware.
3330 2011-05-17 20:09:29 <Mookman288> It wouldn't matter if the CPU was a hexacore, or quadcore.

3333 2011-05-17 20:10:06 <jrmithdobbs> ArtForzZz: but it's a nice easy way to illustrate for people
3334 2011-05-17 20:10:19 <Mookman288> I realize that's what you're supposed to do, but I need to limit the maximum processing power because I only have one machine.
3335 2011-05-17 20:10:25 <jrmithdobbs> ArtForzZz: one valid mindset for making sure you don't get fucked over doing contract/freelance work
3336 2011-05-17 20:10:36 <Mookman288> If I had the know how, I would investigate increasing the efficiency.
3337 2011-05-17 20:10:45 <lfm> Mookman288: ya bitcoin will run lowwest priority
3338 2011-05-17 20:11:04 <jrmithdobbs> grbgout: cool talk so far though
3339 2011-05-17 20:11:15 <Mookman288> It's currently utilizing 90.3% of the VMs CPU.
3340 2011-05-17 20:11:31 <amstan> any idea why diablominer crashes on me? http://pastebin.com/SGTtLasG
3341 2011-05-17 20:11:34 <Mookman288> Atleast this miner, lfm.
3342 2011-05-17 20:11:36 * amstan is sorry if this is the wrong place
3343 2011-05-17 20:11:55 <lfm> ya, if 90% is unused it will run 90%, if anything else wants to run it will run first
3344 2011-05-17 20:12:00 <jrmithdobbs> Mookman288: cpu mining is a waste of power
3345 2011-05-17 20:12:20 <Mookman288> I can either use 0%, or 90% jrmithdobbs. I can't see how it's a waste in this particular instance.
3346 2011-05-17 20:12:38 <jrmithdobbs> Mookman288: you're spending more money on power than you will ever see in returns
3347 2011-05-17 20:12:41 <jrmithdobbs> period.
3348 2011-05-17 20:12:49 <Mookman288> jrmithdobbs: I'm not spending any more in actual power usage.
3349 2011-05-17 20:12:52 <lfm> Mookman288: still the vm is not needed
3350 2011-05-17 20:13:06 <jrmithdobbs> Mookman288: you will if you keep it peaked at 100% cpu 24/7
3351 2011-05-17 20:13:19 <Mookman288> jrmithdobbs: It's a VM cpu, my actual CPU is around 0.25%.
3352 2011-05-17 20:13:39 <lfm> Mookman288: its true a 100% cpu uses more power than an idle cpu
3353 2011-05-17 20:14:01 <BlueMatt> wtf kind of vm are you running?
3354 2011-05-17 20:14:13 <jrmithdobbs> Mookman288: k, feel free to waste power if you want, just warning you
3355 2011-05-17 20:14:15 <Mookman288> lfm: Yes I realize this but it wouldn't really be a waste by not using it.
3356 2011-05-17 20:14:42 <lfm> Mookman288: depends if you like giving money to the power company
3357 2011-05-17 20:14:43 <Mookman288> jrmithdobbs: The difference in wattage is not actually visible on my kill-a-watt.
3358 2011-05-17 20:15:07 <lfm> Mookman288: if your kiilawatt cant see it you are doing it wrong
3359 2011-05-17 20:15:43 <Mookman288> lfm: If you say so.
3360 2011-05-17 20:15:58 <lfm> Mookman288: what actual cpu is it?

3364 2011-05-17 20:16:11 <Lachesis> make about $8 a month
3365 2011-05-17 20:16:14 <Lachesis> and pay about $3
3366 2011-05-17 20:16:20 <Lachesis> not _really_ worth it though
3367 2011-05-17 20:16:37 <Lachesis> b/c my time in dealing with it and the extra stress on my hardware
3368 2011-05-17 20:16:38 <lfm> Mookman288: the real hardware cpu is from intel? amd? via? someone else?

3372 2011-05-17 20:17:21 <lfm> Mookman288: ok and it has an amd model number and or name then
3373 2011-05-17 20:17:41 <Mookman288> lfm: you're not really understanding this. It can be ANY cpu. It doesn't have any impact on the function of this program.
3374 2011-05-17 20:17:49 <jrmithdobbs> Lachesis: you're assuming this bubble isn't going to pop
3375 2011-05-17 20:18:00 <mtrlt> who says this is a bubbel
3376 2011-05-17 20:18:03 <lfm> Mookman288: are we talking about bitcoin at all here?
3377 2011-05-17 20:18:08 <Mookman288> lfm: Yep.
3378 2011-05-17 20:18:21 <Mookman288> lfm: However, you've sort of changed the topic on this one.

3381 2011-05-17 20:18:46 <lfm> Mookman288: ok is the the bitcoin 0.3.xx client or a cpuminer or some other programm?
3382 2011-05-17 20:18:58 <Mookman288> lfm: cpuminer, but still I don't see what you're getting at now.
3383 2011-05-17 20:19:13 <lfm> Mookman288: you're saying you dont really know the model name/number?
3384 2011-05-17 20:19:32 <Mookman288> lfm: The VMWare processor has no model number.
3385 2011-05-17 20:19:47 <lfm> like amd athlon 64 x4 or something?
3386 2011-05-17 20:19:52 <Lachesis> jrmithdobbs, well yeah
3387 2011-05-17 20:19:54 <Mookman288> What would that matter exactly?
3388 2011-05-17 20:20:10 <Mookman288> lfm why would that have any impact -at all-
3389 2011-05-17 20:20:12 <lfm> Mookman288: ig you want to optimize cpuminer it would matter
3390 2011-05-17 20:20:13 <jrmithdobbs> Lachesis: bad assumption to make business decisions on
3391 2011-05-17 20:20:25 <Lachesis> but if you're making an instantaneous calculation (i.e. i have the hardware, should I run the miner), then the future price is irrelvant.
3392 2011-05-17 20:20:27 <Mookman288> lfm: If I want to optimize cpuminer, having the host CPU would do me no use you realize
3393 2011-05-17 20:20:40 <lfm> Mookman288: also it would matter how much power it will be using
3394 2011-05-17 20:20:41 <jrmithdobbs> lfm: he just said vmware so it's def intel or latest round of amd
3395 2011-05-17 20:20:48 <jrmithdobbs> heh

3401 2011-05-17 20:22:00 <BlueMatt> Mookman288: what was that earlier about 1% cpu on the host and 99% on the guest?
3402 2011-05-17 20:22:05 <BlueMatt> what kind of crappy vm is that?
3403 2011-05-17 20:22:06 <Mookman288> lfm: I can drop this vm on any processor in the world. Period. I cannot send instructions past the VM shell.

3412 2011-05-17 20:22:57 <BlueMatt> ESXi is technically free, and no one uses ESX

3419 2011-05-17 20:23:41 <lfm> Mookman288: if you move em between intel and amd the software could get confused, yes
3420 2011-05-17 20:23:43 <ArtForzZz> BlueMatt: not all cpus have the same insn set
3421 2011-05-17 20:23:48 <Mookman288> Then I suspect performance has been severely destroyed, jrmithdobbs.

3424 2011-05-17 20:24:01 <jrmithdobbs> Mookman288: then you don't know what z/vm is
3425 2011-05-17 20:24:03 <ArtForzZz> guess what happens when code inside the VM uses a SSE insn that once cpu does natively, while on another the VM has to trap and emulate?
3426 2011-05-17 20:24:05 <BlueMatt> ArtForzZz: but typically vmware doesnt show the full set to the guest afaik, just some basic crap
3427 2011-05-17 20:24:29 <Mookman288> jrmithdobbs: I was agreeing with ArtForzZz, my mistake on referencing you.
3428 2011-05-17 20:24:44 <lfm> Mookman288: it of course could WORK WITH THE COMMON SUBSET AND MOVE BETWEEN INTEL AND AMD TRANPERENTLY BUT IT CANT TAKE ADVANTAGE OF SOME OPTIMIZATION THEN

3452 2011-05-17 20:28:03 <lfm> so anyway, if he cant see any power use by cpuminer on his killawatt then he has either throttled that vm down to uselessness or he otherwise has no idea what he is really doing
3453 2011-05-17 20:28:30 <jrmithdobbs> voting latter based on rest of the conversation
3454 2011-05-17 20:28:31 <Lachesis> lfm, or his machine doesn't downclock when the VM is on
3455 2011-05-17 20:28:39 <BlueMatt> yea, didnt he say he had 1% cpuusage on his host, hence throttled to nothing
3456 2011-05-17 20:29:14 <lfm> and i totally do not see his point in running it in a VM in the first place
3457 2011-05-17 20:29:34 <XX01XX> What exactly will the bitcoin client do after 0.3.22 if it can't generate coins?

3463 2011-05-17 20:30:02 <BlueMatt> all the gpu miners/rpc cpu miners keep working, but it keeps noobs from complaining
3464 2011-05-17 20:30:13 <forrestv> XX01XX, it will be able to process transactions
3465 2011-05-17 20:30:23 <BlueMatt> "Ive checked generate coins and it hasnt made anything yet, its been running for 2 days"...its gonna take a year
3466 2011-05-17 20:30:50 <dinox> Is there any way to get the address which generated blocks are paid to when solo mining?
3467 2011-05-17 20:31:01 <Lachesis> where does gribble get its next diff estimate?

3478 2011-05-17 20:32:59 <dinox> lfm: ok, so only way to determine if I have solved a block is by calling listtransactions on bitcoind?

3493 2011-05-17 20:37:06 <XX01XX> I realize it's annoying to have a bunch of dumb n00bs coming in here asking why they don't have any bitcoins yet... but you have to balance that against the number of people who are interested in the client only because they can mine.
3494 2011-05-17 20:37:25 <lfm> Lachesis: gribble estimate is just extrapolation of block rate since last diff change
3495 2011-05-17 20:37:42 <XX01XX> You just get a bunch of noobs asking how they can mine... and then asking why they don't have any bitcoins yet.

3507 2011-05-17 20:40:46 <subpar_> I guess it is more an issue of getworks/s
3508 2011-05-17 20:41:10 <lfm> XX01XX: prolly ask a pool manager, they might have some way of knowing
3509 2011-05-17 20:41:11 <subpar_> but getworks/s are collearted closely (I assume) with hashrate
3510 2011-05-17 20:41:15 <BlueMatt> ekls: there were a ton of translations updated in that commit, but your updates are likely still valid, that was mostly just an add-new stuff to match client update

3514 2011-05-17 20:42:00 <ArtForzZz> well, they are correlated
3515 2011-05-17 20:42:04 <subpar_> ArtForzZz: this all pertains back to btcguild...
3516 2011-05-17 20:42:16 <ArtForzZz> but ehre's a huge variable in there for LP supprt and roll-ntime
3517 2011-05-17 20:42:18 <subpar_> correlated but not highly ?
3518 2011-05-17 20:42:22 <lfm> subpar um, kinda ya, depends on the miner how it uses getwork
3519 2011-05-17 20:42:24 <subpar_> got it

3526 2011-05-17 20:45:22 <BlueMatt> not my decision
3527 2011-05-17 20:45:28 <BlueMatt> nor am I sure of which is right
3528 2011-05-17 20:45:43 <jrmithdobbs> never saw his objections
3529 2011-05-17 20:45:58 <BlueMatt> "overengineering" and not worth it
3530 2011-05-17 20:46:27 <jrmithdobbs> eh, it's just a way of preventing issues outside of bitcoind's control from causing an attack vector
3531 2011-05-17 20:46:36 <BlueMatt> talk to jgarzik
3532 2011-05-17 20:46:41 <jrmithdobbs> aye, i will

3534 2011-05-17 20:47:19 <jrmithdobbs> and it should stay a build time option that's off by default anyways
3535 2011-05-17 20:47:24 <BlueMatt> IMHO its not a huge deal as all it realistically prevents is suid privilege escalation which isnt that huge or a problem
3536 2011-05-17 20:47:39 <jrmithdobbs> it prevents some escalation paths through /proc and such too
3537 2011-05-17 20:47:43 <jrmithdobbs> but ya

3545 2011-05-17 20:56:31 <Titeuf_87> (assuming that pool has <50% of the hashing power)
3546 2011-05-17 20:56:39 <jrmithdobbs> <50% of nodes not hashing power
3547 2011-05-17 20:56:47 <jrmithdobbs> and yes if the block is invalid it'll fork
3548 2011-05-17 20:57:07 <BlueMatt> wont really fork, just wont be accepted by anyone but the pool
3549 2011-05-17 20:57:07 <Titeuf_87> awesome, I understand that part right then :)
3550 2011-05-17 20:57:27 <BlueMatt> so it will only "fork" to the pool, to everyone else, someone is trying to spam them with invalid blocks
3551 2011-05-17 20:58:03 <Titeuf_87> ah ok, makes sense!

3568 2011-05-17 21:04:38 <bbfx> Hello everyone! I just have one question:  Was it easier to mine bitcoins in the beginning that it is now? Because if it wasn't like this, then why would it take more than 100years to create all the 21million coins?
3569 2011-05-17 21:04:59 <luke-jr> bbfx: read the paper
3570 2011-05-17 21:05:02 <bbfx> Considering we have already created 6 mill
3571 2011-05-17 21:05:11 <bbfx> what paper?
3572 2011-05-17 21:05:15 <luke-jr> next year, reward drops to 25 BTC

3641 2011-05-17 21:20:47 <jrmithdobbs> right, but that's because your machine is so overpowered for the task

3652 2011-05-17 21:22:49 <bbfx> Read the wiki, but still cant figure out how 6mill  coins were created in such a small amount of time when it says the next 15million coins will take 100 years + to make.  Anyone got a simple explanation for this?
3653 2011-05-17 21:22:52 <ArtForzZz> it is
3654 2011-05-17 21:22:52 * jrmithdobbs ducks further
3655 2011-05-17 21:22:58 <luke-jr> I managed to kernel panic it
3656 2011-05-17 21:22:59 * BlueMatt is such a noob, he just uses nano :)
3657 2011-05-17 21:23:03 <WakiMiko_> When I log into my Xenix system with my 110 baud teletype, both vi and Emacs are just too damn slow. They print useless messages like, ‘C-h for help’ and ‘“foo” File is read only’. So I use the editor that doesn't waste my VALUABLE time.
3658 2011-05-17 21:23:14 <ArtForzZz> ed?

3663 2011-05-17 21:23:45 <jrmithdobbs> i actually do use ed from time to time ;P
3664 2011-05-17 21:23:52 <WakiMiko_> When I use an editor, I don't want eight extra KILOBYTES of worthless help screens and cursor positioning code! I just want an EDitor!! Not a “viitor”. Not a “emacsitor”. Those aren't even WORDS!!!! ED! ED! ED IS THE STANDARD!!!

3673 2011-05-17 21:25:23 <jrmithdobbs> difficulty is re-evaluated every n blocks is more accurate
3674 2011-05-17 21:25:47 <edcba> difficulty just make sure the blocks happen at regular interval
3675 2011-05-17 21:25:48 <jrmithdobbs> and it's attempted to be kept at approximately 1 block per 10 minutes

3701 2011-05-17 21:30:20 <jrmithdobbs> bbfx: txns can be traced to the source and unless you do some very crazy (and expensive due to txn fees) stuff are very easily tracable due to the fact that money has to enter and leave at some point (the way the system is being used at this time, at least)

3704 2011-05-17 21:31:35 <Jere_Jones> bbfx: The main reason that it will take 140 years to make 21 million bitcoins is that the number of bitcoins rewarded for creating a block is halved every 4 years or so.
3705 2011-05-17 21:31:39 <jrmithdobbs> bbfx: no
3706 2011-05-17 21:31:47 <jrmithdobbs> bbfx: it requires knowing how to use blockexplorer.com

3747 2011-05-17 21:47:07 <ArtForzZz> usually 10m+ works fine if you don't push really high pixel clocks

3753 2011-05-17 21:49:03 <jrmithdobbs> ya figured that, just wondered what the spec was
3754 2011-05-17 21:49:10 <jrmithdobbs> hdmi it is!
3755 2011-05-17 21:49:30 <ArtForzZz> which is... pretty much the same thing ;)
3756 2011-05-17 21:49:53 <ArtForzZz> except with crappier cables
3757 2011-05-17 21:50:13 <jrmithdobbs> ya but people sell them longer (I know the transmitter in this case should be capable of ~10m)
3758 2011-05-17 21:50:40 <jrmithdobbs> easier to manage connectors anyways
3759 2011-05-17 21:50:42 <ArtForzZz> iirc dvi specs TP for the differential refclock and data wire pairs, hdmi doesn't
3760 2011-05-17 21:51:10 <jrmithdobbs> dvi definitely does

3931 2011-05-17 23:13:14 <BlueMatt> jgarzik: ie take 2.9.1 and add the commits required for gtk3
3932 2011-05-17 23:13:16 <jrmithdobbs> diki: your answer is on the first content line of the manpage, i don't really know what to tell you
3933 2011-05-17 23:13:16 <mtrlt_> umm if i send this through JSON to a pool, the pool should reply with work, right? {"jsonrpc":"2.0", "method": "getwork"} it works with a local bitcoind but doesn't work for slush's pool. slush replies with  {"result": true, "id": "1", "error": null}
3934 2011-05-17 23:13:26 <BlueMatt> jrmithdobbs: well tell that to satoshi...
3935 2011-05-17 23:13:30 <mtrlt_> i mean it replies with "result": false..
3936 2011-05-17 23:13:53 <jgarzik> BlueMatt: that doesn't un-confuse me :)  are you suggesting (a) a doc change, (b) shipping wx source code _inside_ bitcoin tarball, or something else?
3937 2011-05-17 23:14:02 <diki> Then can you at least tell me if the question mark i SELECT password FROM pool_worker WHERE username = ? is a variable?

3942 2011-05-17 23:14:47 <jgarzik> diki: forcehost forces the internal hostname to X, rather than using the OS gives you
3943 2011-05-17 23:15:00 <BlueMatt> jgarzik: I mean the wx with which bitcoin is static-linked.  Which version should be used? support for gtk3 means either wx2.9.1 + commits or wx-trunk.  Otherwise we can just use 2.9.1 and leave ubuntu11.04 and some other distros out

3959 2011-05-17 23:18:55 <luke-jr> no, that isn't a block
3960 2011-05-17 23:18:57 <luke-jr> it's a txn

3962 2011-05-17 23:19:06 <BlueMatt> oh, its a generation txn
3963 2011-05-17 23:19:22 <luke-jr> I wonder, if a miner wanted to, could they allow a txn with negative fee?
3964 2011-05-17 23:19:24 <roconnor_> ah
3965 2011-05-17 23:19:26 <roconnor_> sorry
3966 2011-05-17 23:19:28 <luke-jr> ie, give up part of the reward
3967 2011-05-17 23:19:31 <diki> When i get the pool to work, i've already got the perfect theme for it
3968 2011-05-17 23:19:42 <BlueMatt> luke-jr: yes
3969 2011-05-17 23:19:45 <diki> I plan to add quite the ajax features
3970 2011-05-17 23:20:00 <BlueMatt> they can accept 0 instead of 50, and as the reward is just lumped in there anyway, id assume so
3971 2011-05-17 23:20:29 <BlueMatt> I want to generate a block with 49.99 just to mess with people who keep track of the total btc in existence
3972 2011-05-17 23:20:30 <midnightmagic> all of this speculation should be captured in a test suite. :(
3973 2011-05-17 23:20:53 <midnightmagic> BlueMatt: I thought of that in January but realised i might kick myself in 20 years. :)
3974 2011-05-17 23:21:03 <BlueMatt> .01 BTC?
3975 2011-05-17 23:21:12 <midnightmagic> no, generating less than 50 ฿.
3976 2011-05-17 23:21:16 <jrmithdobbs> negative fees are retarded, haha
3977 2011-05-17 23:21:26 <BlueMatt> yea, just do like 49.999999
3978 2011-05-17 23:21:43 <BlueMatt> just so all the smart-asses would have to make sure to subtract a satoshi from the total generated
