2 2011-05-23 00:00:21 <sipa> BlueMatt: but the deb links to a particular version, which probably exists at the time the deb file is built
3 2011-05-23 00:00:26 <sipa> poc?
4 2011-05-23 00:00:32 <BlueMatt> proof of concept
5 2011-05-23 00:00:39 <sipa> ok, sure
6 2011-05-23 00:00:53 <BlueMatt> the place gitian will really be used for updating is win32 (as we have to do our own updating stuff there anyway)
7 2011-05-23 00:01:01 <sipa> indeed
8 2011-05-23 00:01:09 <sipa> that will be a major improvement
9 2011-05-23 00:01:44 <BlueMatt> also, for debs, I can unilaterally update a ppa to push binary bitcoin with a trojan in it...with gitian doing the actual work I cant (well sort of)
10 2011-05-23 00:01:56 <BlueMatt> I could just push a virus on top of the gitian downloader but...
11 2011-05-23 00:02:04 <sipa> it's more easily verified
12 2011-05-23 00:02:34 <BlueMatt> as a side note, I very much want to see an "official" bitcoin ppa
13 2011-05-23 00:03:46 <sipa> would a wx-bitcoin ppa be possible?
14 2011-05-23 00:03:51 <BlueMatt> who the fuck is Melvin Arvalho?
15 2011-05-23 00:03:56 <BlueMatt> yea of course
16 2011-05-23 00:04:03 <BlueMatt> someone has one (though its like 0.3.19 or something)
17 2011-05-23 00:04:19 <sipa> oh, i thought it was only bitcoind
18 2011-05-23 00:04:39 <BlueMatt> joy someone has the project "Bitcoin" registered on launchpad with no public email
19 2011-05-23 00:04:45 <BlueMatt> who is Melvin Carvalho?
20 2011-05-23 00:05:03 <BlueMatt> oh idiot, no public email but its in his gpg key which is public :)

47 2011-05-23 00:11:47 <erbs> an exchange that delivers the btc when you close your trading position would need to register under the cftc.. any individual tx over $10K would need to be reported under CFTA and SAR tx... register as a money services businees with the treasury if over $1K in stored value is being held... each customer with an acct needs to be identified at account opening under the patriot act kyc (and
48 2011-05-23 00:11:47 <erbs> most other countries)... to do business in each state you need to reg as a moeny transmittal biz and a currency exchanger...
49 2011-05-23 00:12:12 <erbs> SEC regulates bitcoin exchanges because they regulate "Cash and cash equivalents (including foreign currencies) held for investment purposes"
50 2011-05-23 00:12:33 <phantomcircuit> bitcoin isn't a cash equivalent ...
51 2011-05-23 00:12:49 <erbs> its a currency
52 2011-05-23 00:12:55 <erbs> it is cash

58 2011-05-23 00:13:43 <erbs> it is a currency under any definition

65 2011-05-23 00:14:37 <erbs> its any highly liquid investment that can be easily converted into cash
66 2011-05-23 00:14:55 <jrmithdobbs> you're still on about this?
67 2011-05-23 00:14:56 <erbs> its either cash outright (by being a currency) or a cash equivalent (when traded on mtgox or another exchange)
68 2011-05-23 00:15:07 <phantomcircuit> erbs, so stocks are cash equivalent ? yeah i dont think so
69 2011-05-23 00:15:17 <erbs> stocks are already defined as securities
70 2011-05-23 00:15:28 <phantomcircuit> that's not the point
71 2011-05-23 00:15:30 <erbs> they are equity shares, a completely different animal

79 2011-05-23 00:17:29 <phantomcircuit> lame
80 2011-05-23 00:17:34 <erbs> the treatment of stocks is pre-empted by the rules on equity shares, but it could also be discussed as a cash equivalent
81 2011-05-23 00:18:06 <erbs> The Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) defines cash equivalents as highly liquid securities with maturities of less than three months. Liquid securities typically are those that can be sold easily with little or no loss of value.

121 2011-05-23 00:25:21 <erbs> phantomcircuit: they don't define cash because its a term of art. anything that would go under the "Cash" section of a balance sheet is cash.. and cash held for investment purposes is regulated by the SEC
122 2011-05-23 00:25:38 <BlueMatt> doesnt mean bitcoin shouldnt

132 2011-05-23 00:27:12 <erbs> however, the SEC limits its oversight over cash held for investment purposes to bank deposits, CDs, insurance policies, etc... they dont mention stored value accounts, so not-being-a-bank might mean a bitcoin account held for investment purposes isnt regulated under that provision
133 2011-05-23 00:27:24 <lfm> I reveiw the source each time I update! (you beleive me right?)
134 2011-05-23 00:27:25 <erbs> the other alternative is if they consider bitcoins an equity (one of 21 million shares)
135 2011-05-23 00:27:55 <BlueMatt> lfm: lol...either way gitian means no one person can unilaterally update everyone, in fact we can set it to take 4 or 5 devs

150 2011-05-23 00:35:11 <erbs> the main thing for exchanges and payment providers need to worry about is: a) due diligence for KYC under bank secrecy act (it varies, and isn't as stringent as regulated banks, but still applies - more so to non-banks in the EU) b) register with the cftc if your exchange is options-based (traders receive btc/usd when they close their position on the market) c) selling over $1K to a
151 2011-05-23 00:35:11 <erbs> user is selling stored value instruments like a prepaid card, register with the treasury d) state registrations for money transmittal and currency exchange
152 2011-05-23 00:35:14 <tasha2> but listtransactions [account] [count=10] is not working to get a higher count
153 2011-05-23 00:35:31 <tasha2> ->client->listtransactions('','100'); ?
154 2011-05-23 00:35:56 <erbs> i think theres legal wiggle room if the user already has a bitcoin account before you give him the bitcoins (then you are not creating a stored value instrument, you are just depositing it to his)

157 2011-05-23 00:36:41 <erbs> the state regs are pretty onerous compared to the federal ones.. but its hard for states to enforce it on a foreign corp
158 2011-05-23 00:37:00 <dissipate> erbs, worried about legal troubles with bitcoin?
159 2011-05-23 00:37:07 <erbs> no..

161 2011-05-23 00:37:20 <lfm> pretty hard for anyone to enforce regs on a foreign corp
162 2011-05-23 00:37:51 <erbs> exchanges should make it clear they are not selling options (by requiring users to register with their own btc address and immediately withdrawing/depositing coins from their address whenever they buy or sell)
163 2011-05-23 00:37:58 <lfm> tasha2: count is the count of confirmations isnt it?
164 2011-05-23 00:38:31 <tasha2> no
165 2011-05-23 00:38:32 <tasha2> listtransactions [account] [count=10] Returns up to [count] most recent transactions for account [account]
166 2011-05-23 00:38:48 <erbs> then if they report any suspicious transactions under KYC and ask for some identification (level of verificaiton varies in each jurisdiction) they should be fine

168 2011-05-23 00:39:50 <erbs> once you have ricardian contracts with OT or in the protocol with scripts theres no longer any single exchange they can go after

174 2011-05-23 00:42:14 <Namegduf> And would make the automatic exchanges terribly slow
175 2011-05-23 00:43:20 <erbs> its all a gray area since bitcoin doesn't fit the definition precisely of existing instruments.. so the govt can interpret is as a currency (cash), or an equity (one share out of 21 million - seems an unlikely interpretation since each "share" conveys no rights or property), or as a good (like an mp3 or baseball card - unlikely when its billed as a currency)

178 2011-05-23 00:46:09 <erbs> mtgox should at the very least create a bitcoin account for you that represents your trading account and deposit/withdraw from there when you buy or sell.. that way its not an option

186 2011-05-23 00:49:07 <erbs> the legal issues really are minimal on the federal level.. as long as it doesn't become 90% drugtrafficking/money laundering they wont crack down on it hopefully
187 2011-05-23 00:49:39 <erbs> if your not an exchange, you have less federal regs than paypal.. not hard to do

190 2011-05-23 00:50:08 <BlueMatt> devrandom: but it proves it works...I might spend some time looking at win32 stuff, but that isnt due to be packaged for bitcoin till 0.4.0 with autotools so...

194 2011-05-23 00:51:17 <devrandom> I think I'm going to move the pgp keys out of the config and into the distribution zip file
195 2011-05-23 00:51:38 <BlueMatt> probably smart
196 2011-05-23 00:51:38 <devrandom> I'm poking around the bitcoin ppa now
197 2011-05-23 00:51:53 <BlueMatt> its just a really simple download script...
198 2011-05-23 00:51:56 <BlueMatt> works though
199 2011-05-23 00:52:04 <devrandom> it says "currently building" on your ppa
200 2011-05-23 00:52:24 <BlueMatt> yea you cant upload binaries, launchpad itself "builds" it
201 2011-05-23 00:52:33 <BlueMatt> even though its not building, just taring and such
202 2011-05-23 00:53:04 <devrandom> I see
203 2011-05-23 00:53:29 <BlueMatt> anyway...ttyl
204 2011-05-23 00:53:47 <BlueMatt> download script seems to work perfectly, well done
205 2011-05-23 00:53:58 <devrandom> ttul, and thanks :)
206 2011-05-23 00:57:01 <erbs> http://www.quora.com/Is-Bitcoin-legal/answer/Corey-Recvlohe this is a good roundup of bitcoin legal context.. but it doesn't address things like exchanges (cftc when dealing with options) or payment providers (minimum bank secrecy act due diligence) or state registrations for transmittal and currency exchnage
207 2011-05-23 00:57:46 <erbs> in p2p usage, theres really no legal issue

223 2011-05-23 01:06:35 <erbs> exchangers should probably avoid buying / selling in fractional USD amounts below $1 (even thugh the stamp payments act is laregely defunct, it makes sense to avoid the sub-$1 threshold)
224 2011-05-23 01:07:22 <erbs> so round up / down USD<->BTC transactions to the nearest dollar
225 2011-05-23 01:07:32 <lfm> erbs that will dissapoint luke-jr

237 2011-05-23 01:10:22 <erbs> a single tx should not be worth less than $1 (technically it could be considered a note/obligation for an amount less than $1 whith the stamp payments act frowns upon)
238 2011-05-23 01:11:00 <erbs> but tx's higher than $1 wouldn't need to round if its in the same tx
239 2011-05-23 01:11:16 <AntiVigilante> jrmithdobbs: Attitude? I don't believe in attitudes - everything I say is measured - It's not like I shove that in their faces. If I wanted to say that to them, I'd be sharper and more subtle.
240 2011-05-23 01:11:24 <XX01XX> basically you can't sell any amount of bitcoin for less than $1
241 2011-05-23 01:11:37 <erbs> that is kind of an issue with any micropayment system
242 2011-05-23 01:11:55 <jrmithdobbs> AntiVigilante: well you're more than welcome to not believe in colours too.
243 2011-05-23 01:12:02 <XX01XX> Nah... you could micropay in bitcoin for a debt in bitcoin without wrrying about the USD value,no?
244 2011-05-23 01:12:03 <jrmithdobbs> AntiVigilante: doesn't change my statement.
245 2011-05-23 01:12:18 <erbs> http://papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers.cfm?abstract_id=1817857 goes into why stamp payments act is probably not enforceable on digital transactions, but it doesn't hurt exchangers to stay away from sub $1 valued transactions
246 2011-05-23 01:12:37 <erbs> XX01XX: yeah i think so
247 2011-05-23 01:13:02 <erbs> if its not tied to a USD-denominated transaction its probably fine
248 2011-05-23 01:13:16 <erbs> or some foreign currency easily convertible to USD
249 2011-05-23 01:13:23 <lfm> XX01XX: ya, just when you buy bitcoin to top up your account or sell btc to cash out you may be limited in your options
250 2011-05-23 01:13:52 <AntiVigilante> jrmithdobbs: an attitude is an absent minded behavior. not how I play. I'd agree if I actually said that to ppl. I'm just venting on the pointless topic of fence sitters.

266 2011-05-23 01:21:40 <erbs> p2p, b2b, b2c transactions have little to worry about.. exchangers and payment services have slightly more regs that are intended to be anti money laundering provisions

278 2011-05-23 01:24:52 <jrmithdobbs> AntiVigilante: point stands that the "fuck the federal gov of every nation and their regs" attitude is not productive.
279 2011-05-23 01:25:20 <erbs> a lot of the AML regs only apply to tx over $10K usd anyway.. so its not a big deal
280 2011-05-23 01:25:52 <AntiVigilante> jrmithdobbs: agreed. but I don't give a shit for laws that prevent people from raising each other up.
281 2011-05-23 01:25:55 <lfm> yup we should all learn all the regs for our own jurisdictions and learn how to work around <-<-<- with them
282 2011-05-23 01:27:08 <AntiVigilante> I lit up because the United Homeless Organization was shut down. Point of no return for me.
283 2011-05-23 01:27:10 <erbs> you cant really buy bitcoin with paper cash.. it goes through paypal/credit card/etc, so already customer identification is there. unlike prepaid cards where a druglord can buy $100K worth of cards in cash from a few gas stations
284 2011-05-23 01:28:01 <lfm> erbs well you CAN buy btc with cash. themadhatter was doing that
285 2011-05-23 01:28:24 <erbs> buy sending it over the mail? i guess.. but you cant really send $10K anonymously
286 2011-05-23 01:28:26 <AntiVigilante> and ubitex
287 2011-05-23 01:28:31 <lfm> send him cah in the mail and hed credit your btc account
288 2011-05-23 01:28:35 <erbs> or i mean, putting $10K in a fedex is probably a bad idea hehe
289 2011-05-23 01:29:09 <AntiVigilante> i'll put some bitbills in a bottle - put in on the sea.
290 2011-05-23 01:29:11 <lfm> erbs if your doing $10k you can get bonded couriers

293 2011-05-23 01:29:42 <erbs> right.. but its not the business model for payment providers to be accepting large anonymous bundles of cash
294 2011-05-23 01:30:15 <lfm> erbs depends on the country, prolly in Nigeria it would be fine
295 2011-05-23 01:31:07 <erbs> e-Gold: "The indictment alleges that the defendants knew of illegal activity associated with accounts and recorded it in the e-gold database with notations such as "child porn", "scammer", and "CC fraud"" their downfall was really failing at due diligence, laundering $ for known fraudsters allegedly
296 2011-05-23 01:32:29 <lfm> erbs: is it ok if you send the law enforement notification that you have this stuff?
297 2011-05-23 01:32:52 <erbs> lfm: exactly.. you have to file SARs, suspicious activity reports
298 2011-05-23 01:33:01 <jgarzik> CTRs, SARs, ...
299 2011-05-23 01:33:28 <tasha2> so in pools, is it that they forward on a getwork packet, but modify the target before sending?
300 2011-05-23 01:33:42 <lfm> prolly just goes into files somewhere anyway.
301 2011-05-23 01:33:54 <jgarzik> lfm: feds are great at data mining now

310 2011-05-23 01:35:45 <AntiVigilante> the guy who did the yale paper
311 2011-05-23 01:35:57 <jgarzik> fractional reserve is just a choice. nothing wrong with it, as long as you understand your money might be lost by the gamblers at the top.
312 2011-05-23 01:36:04 <erbs> you can trade btc for paper cash - but a business based on that would have the same regs as prepaid cards
313 2011-05-23 01:36:17 <lfm> AntiVigilante: ya well fractional reserve banks are legal, weed isnt
314 2011-05-23 01:37:13 <lfm> jgarzik: yup keep your btc in your matress

316 2011-05-23 01:37:45 <AntiVigilante> jgarzik: your money might be lost but the properties they already acquired remain in theor hands - there is really no gambling at the top - it's a few levels below that where they feed off gamblers - names we know

352 2011-05-23 02:05:27 <erbs> you would need a much bigger market in the billions to come up with an argument that bitcoin is like other money..

366 2011-05-23 02:16:27 <erbs> i think you need a billion $ market for it to be worth scrutiny by any jurisdiction
367 2011-05-23 02:16:53 <ninjaneo> is there anyone willing to send testnet coins? myAM24gdcxpJvfj9gRkKYqkHeoD9QsqMHU
368 2011-05-23 02:18:19 <lizthegrey> how much opposition would there be to including something in the bitcoin client that in addition to the precomputed hash values/parameters, returned the raw skeleton of the block? what about being able to set the nonce/generation address values?
369 2011-05-23 02:18:31 <lizthegrey> or would I be better off forking the code or reimplementing to get that kind of functionality?

374 2011-05-23 02:19:32 <erbs> interesting
375 2011-05-23 02:20:18 <jgarzik> lizthegrey: what is a raw skeleton of a block? 'getwork' RPC returns the block header.
376 2011-05-23 02:21:17 <lizthegrey> jgarzik: that wasn't completely clear to me when I was looking at it, but it's possible I missed something
377 2011-05-23 02:21:52 <ninjaneo> is cpumining on testnet practical
378 2011-05-23 02:22:01 <lizthegrey> I'm working on an experimental pool
379 2011-05-23 02:22:05 <lizthegrey> in short, I want to be able to trust clients to generate their own work rather than relying upon me to generate work and farm it out to clients

385 2011-05-23 02:22:23 <ninjaneo> a block or two =p
386 2011-05-23 02:22:32 <jgarzik> lizthegrey: that would require substantial client modification
387 2011-05-23 02:22:50 <lizthegrey> so that means I need to be able to verify that a client submitting a proof of work had set the pool's payment address as the recipient of the generation/transaction fees
388 2011-05-23 02:23:16 <lizthegrey> jgarzik: yeah, I'd assumed as much. I'm fine with incurring that work.

390 2011-05-23 02:24:07 <jgarzik> lizthegrey: not really. the block header includes a hash of transactions (basically). the block header does not include any payment addresses. payment info for the block is stored in the special, first transaction called the coinbase TX.
391 2011-05-23 02:24:23 <jgarzik> lizthegrey: the coinbase TX is then included the hash-of-transactions found in the block header

397 2011-05-23 02:26:56 <lizthegrey> luke-jr: aware. I'm trying to implement a pool, not connect to an existing pool :)
398 2011-05-23 02:27:21 <luke-jr> lizthegrey: pool-specific miners ftl
399 2011-05-23 02:28:11 <lizthegrey> luke-jr: no, no modification to miners needed.
400 2011-05-23 02:29:15 <lizthegrey> existing miner calls getwork against a new binary running locally, returns a result, new binary running locally sends the full block for verification.
401 2011-05-23 02:29:31 <lizthegrey> so the basic getwork bit that miners use is not changed.
402 2011-05-23 02:30:00 <luke-jr> lizthegrey: still pool-specific the way you're talking
403 2011-05-23 02:30:08 <luke-jr> you've just divided the miner into 2 parts
404 2011-05-23 02:30:29 <lizthegrey> sure, there's a component you'd need to run in addition to your regular miner.
405 2011-05-23 02:30:57 <lizthegrey> I concede that. I think there are advantages that would make you want to install the extra component though.
406 2011-05-23 02:31:28 <luke-jr> I'd just prefer it be done in a way that works for all pools ;)

478 2011-05-23 02:43:18 <phantomcircuit> just change it so irc defaults to being off
479 2011-05-23 02:43:39 <phantomcircuit> jrmithdobbs, really the problem is that the timeout for connect() should be like 0.5 seconds

494 2011-05-23 02:45:14 <phantomcircuit> Namegduf, it's dependent entirely on who runs the server
495 2011-05-23 02:45:19 <Namegduf> Server-wide limits make sense, but multiple channels wouldn't help with that.
496 2011-05-23 02:45:44 <jrmithdobbs> phantomcircuit: depends on what ircd the irc bootstrap is using, there's a bunch you can fool into handing out the wrong ip info to everyone except the client connecting
497 2011-05-23 02:45:47 <jgarzik> it is a channel-specific limit, not a server-wide limit.
498 2011-05-23 02:45:50 <Namegduf> phantomcircuit: Not really, the major IRCD software doesn't support a network administrator mandated channel size cap as a major feature, and basically no one has tried to set one.
499 2011-05-23 02:45:51 <phantomcircuit> jgarzik, the irc boostrap is pretty stupid a simple php script that returns peers would be simple as hell and trivial to distribute, in fact i wrote one for another project i was working on, it took me like 5 minutes and handled about 10k concurrent requests

513 2011-05-23 02:47:19 <jgarzik> phantomcircuit: a 60 second TTL is not a big deal
514 2011-05-23 02:47:21 <phantomcircuit> jgarzik, not to mention is harder for people to setup, a php script would be trivially distributed for bootstrap by tons of people

547 2011-05-23 02:50:46 <jrmithdobbs> vorlov: so tell the x server not to run at a gigantic resolution
548 2011-05-23 02:50:50 <jgarzik> jrmithdobbs: one set of dns seeds holds well known fallback nodes, and another set randomly squirts long-lifetime nodes into a tinydns file. no need to manually ping zone owners.
549 2011-05-23 02:50:59 <phantomcircuit> jgarzik, webseeds are easy as hell to implement and they discourage authorities seizing the dnsseed, since it's pointless
550 2011-05-23 02:51:26 <Diablo-D3> vorlov: why would you need graphics support anyhow? ssh is enough

557 2011-05-23 02:52:03 <vorlov> Diablo-D3: because its nice and it gives me the flexibility of calling my wife and asking her to check things for me when im not at home
558 2011-05-23 02:52:07 <jrmithdobbs> jgarzik: didn't know it was already grabbing long-lifetime nodes
559 2011-05-23 02:52:09 <jrmithdobbs> jgarzik: good to know
560 2011-05-23 02:52:27 <Diablo-D3> vorlov: but ssh can do the same thing
561 2011-05-23 02:52:48 <jrmithdobbs> jgarzik: every client having an address database is what leads to the shittiness phantomcircuit is bitching about in the first place though

566 2011-05-23 02:53:19 <jrmithdobbs> jgarzik: where a client gets stuck trying dead nodes over and over and over and never actually connecting
567 2011-05-23 02:53:19 <vorlov> Diablo-D3: u are right and i do that, and obviously running any X is enough for mining purposes, but i like it and its flexible for me
568 2011-05-23 02:53:24 <phantomcircuit> jrmithdobbs, lol im not bitching, i have no problem connecting, im just saying it's a shit design
569 2011-05-23 02:53:36 <vorlov> Diablo-D3: going back to my question, do u happen to know if there's a way to load the graphics drivers in a vnc X session
570 2011-05-23 02:53:45 <Diablo-D3> vorlov: yes, but if you have a phone with a ssh client you can just keep the miner running in screen
571 2011-05-23 02:53:49 <jrmithdobbs> phantomcircuit: didn't mean that in a derragotory way, i agree that the state of that code is not good
572 2011-05-23 02:53:55 <Diablo-D3> and then ssh to a box on your lan, and then ssh to your miner box from that
573 2011-05-23 02:53:55 <jrmithdobbs> phantomcircuit: i just disagree that a web seed is the answer ;P
574 2011-05-23 02:53:56 <phantomcircuit> jrmithdobbs, and actualyl the problem is more so that the client doesn't rapidly try new nodes, it tries them with a *HUGE* timeout

578 2011-05-23 02:54:14 <Diablo-D3> vorlov: use x11vnc
579 2011-05-23 02:54:15 <jrmithdobbs> phantomcircuit: ya looking at the code it doesn't explicitly set one
580 2011-05-23 02:54:20 <phantomcircuit> jrmithdobbs, which i suspect is actually forever
581 2011-05-23 02:54:22 <jrmithdobbs> phantomcircuit: which means it uses the system default
582 2011-05-23 02:54:28 <vorlov> Diablo-D3: okay i understand about vnc
583 2011-05-23 02:54:29 <jrmithdobbs> phantomcircuit: which is forever in a lot of cases
584 2011-05-23 02:54:33 <phantomcircuit> jrmithdobbs, yeah
585 2011-05-23 02:54:37 <jrmithdobbs> (or close enough to be pratically forever)
586 2011-05-23 02:54:44 <vorlov> Diablo-D3: now what did u meen keep the miner running w/ screen? u mean with the screen program?

591 2011-05-23 02:55:10 <Diablo-D3> vorlov: screen lets you close the ssh connection without killing the miner
592 2011-05-23 02:55:24 <jrmithdobbs> phantomcircuit: can be adjusted system wide, but yes
593 2011-05-23 02:55:33 <vorlov> Diablo-D3: how do u do that w/ screen?
594 2011-05-23 02:55:36 <Schalk> Can I interupt?
595 2011-05-23 02:55:51 <phantomcircuit> jrmithdobbs, yes, but most linux systems have syscookies turned on, which effectively disables system wide timeouts
596 2011-05-23 02:56:17 <phantomcircuit> jrmithdobbs, there is a sysctl value that nominally controls the tcp connect timeout, but it doesn't actually do anything if syscookies is enabled
597 2011-05-23 02:56:23 <phantomcircuit> it's a pretty common pitfall

I do not have that port set in the bitcoin.conf as the rpcport variable, and when I set it (think I should) it seemed to clobber my miner (connected to a pool) and cause problems with bitcoin itself (had to restart the server).

I chmod 755 the whole folder since it said there were permission problems. i then double clicked on the 32 bit version (since i am on a 32bit version of ubuntu). I can see bitcoin started in htop, but no gui pops up. what do i do?
741 2011-05-23 04:06:50 <grbgout> ramontayag: did you run bitcoin or bitcoind?
742 2011-05-23 04:06:52 <eianpsego> So I don't see the UI in ubuntu 11.04...wonder what is going on lol

794 2011-05-23 04:38:11 <bk128> sure
795 2011-05-23 04:41:08 <erbs> fpga is cool
796 2011-05-23 04:41:11 <erbs> but not cost effective
797 2011-05-23 04:41:55 <midnightmagic> structured ASIC might be cost-effective-r.
798 2011-05-23 04:42:15 <bk128> eh, with the power saving it might be cost effective, SASIC definitely is cost effective
799 2011-05-23 04:42:37 <midnightmagic> "sasic" still requires a minimum first-order.
800 2011-05-23 04:42:48 <midnightmagic> so once you're in, you're in.
801 2011-05-23 04:43:06 <midnightmagic> older-process ASIC might be cost-effective.

804 2011-05-23 04:44:10 <midnightmagic> and FPGA takes so long to pay itself off, it would surprise me indeed if someone were able to make a go of using an fpga array. (would they still be "better" by that order-of-magnitude after the next-gen GPU arrives?
805 2011-05-23 04:44:51 <jgarzik> I'd jump on sasic, if there was an easy route from HDL -> finished sasic + board

836 2011-05-23 04:55:43 <lfm> midnightmagic: the last txn in that block had a fee
837 2011-05-23 04:56:13 <midnightmagic> lfm: i can't find it in the raw block.
838 2011-05-23 04:56:23 <erbs> lfm: rejected by who? other miners would have an incentive to allow it so they extract more btc in less time

856 2011-05-23 05:04:36 <lfm> midnightmagic: nope, fees are just an amount left over between the inputs and the outputs of a txn. if you dont claim em, they go into the ether

858 2011-05-23 05:05:53 <midnightmagic> lfm: yeah but if I wanted to mine for free--no txn fees--then the fees would need to be txn'd back to the sender. could that not be done in the same block?
859 2011-05-23 05:06:34 <midnightmagic> so, "claim" the fee by paying myself the fee, and append a txn which pays it back to the pubkey of the sender..
860 2011-05-23 05:06:40 <lfm> midnightmagic: the only way to gather them up is in the coinbase txn, then you could send them back from there ya
861 2011-05-23 05:07:12 <midnightmagic> can the output of a transaction not be the input of another txn?
862 2011-05-23 05:07:55 <midnightmagic> yeah it looks like it because it processes txn in order of dependency
863 2011-05-23 05:08:02 random_lurk is now known as random_cat

866 2011-05-23 05:09:35 <midnightmagic> hrm. so i guess.. there's no real point in putting it into a separate txn because you can just output it in the coinbase..
867 2011-05-23 05:09:36 <lfm> see txn -> http://blockexplorer.com/t/9MXr3RauYB has a fee 0.01. it is in your block
868 2011-05-23 05:09:39 <midnightmagic> but i wonder if it's possible..
869 2011-05-23 05:09:49 <midnightmagic> yeah I've been staring at that,.
870 2011-05-23 05:10:16 <jp_larocque> I would return payments unless you're okay with the money being lost forever.
871 2011-05-23 05:10:19 <midnightmagic> meh. then I say I wanted no fee for my sentimental block.
872 2011-05-23 05:10:27 <midnightmagic> jp_ it's too late, it's gone.
873 2011-05-23 05:10:35 <lfm> when you hard coded the coinbase, you bypassed or threw away the fee as well
874 2011-05-23 05:10:40 <jp_larocque> Think of automated systems that might send out money. No person would ever see or spend returned money.
875 2011-05-23 05:10:50 <grbgout> hmm, I don't need to forward port 8332 if I want to connect a miner to a bitcoin node on my intranet, right?
876 2011-05-23 05:10:59 <jp_larocque> I wouldn't return payments*
877 2011-05-23 05:11:19 <lfm> yup too late, its gone
878 2011-05-23 05:11:28 <midnightmagic> i intended to simply refuse the fee actually, but I suppose the effort was clumsy.
879 2011-05-23 05:11:46 <midnightmagic> either way, one Satoshi never came into existence. :)
880 2011-05-23 05:12:17 <lfm> no big deal anyway, just a few extra cents lost to the entropy
881 2011-05-23 05:12:36 <erbs> gavin is satoshi ?

922 2011-05-23 05:22:48 <jgarzik> midnightmagic: I have contacts that can do this sort of thing, but $$$$$$$. My own hardware-fu is low. I can read HDL and hack it a bit, that's it.
923 2011-05-23 05:22:53 <erbs> admit that im not satoshi and dont record his every tx? lol
924 2011-05-23 05:23:07 <erbs> the profit incentive is obvious. hes sold a huge amount
925 2011-05-23 05:23:09 <lfm> phantomcircuit: no, he said $3 million, not 3 million btc
926 2011-05-23 05:23:54 <midnightmagic> jgarzik: i would be happier if I could design the low-level logic itself gate-by-gate.. but I guess that isn't done quite so much anymore.

936 2011-05-23 05:26:35 <jrmithdobbs> :(
937 2011-05-23 05:26:36 <midnightmagic> i still have the design in my permanent archives. too bad it was done in logicworks. I'm not even sure logicworks even exists anymore.
938 2011-05-23 05:26:36 <lfm> midnightmagic: did you build it?
939 2011-05-23 05:27:19 <midnightmagic> lfm: no, it would've required a huge number of nands. I simulated it though.
940 2011-05-23 05:27:38 <midnightmagic> i think the gate count was.. somewhere in the thousands anyway.
941 2011-05-23 05:27:51 <midnightmagic> jrmithdobbs: they don't eh? ah, more's the pity.
942 2011-05-23 05:27:53 <phantomcircuit> lfm, oh, yes that would be easy
943 2011-05-23 05:28:02 <phantomcircuit> lfm, but no 3 million usd isn't *that* much money
944 2011-05-23 05:28:06 <phantomcircuit> lfm, so i doubt it
945 2011-05-23 05:28:38 <lfm> there are people on the web with homebrew wirewrap computers and stuff they got running
946 2011-05-23 05:28:55 <lfm> their own design
947 2011-05-23 05:29:15 <gmaxwell> lfm: and then there are people building these things in minecraft...
948 2011-05-23 05:29:19 <phantomcircuit> lol the potato server
949 2011-05-23 05:29:24 <phantomcircuit> lfm, classics
950 2011-05-23 05:29:38 <lfm> well minecraft is just another simulation
951 2011-05-23 05:30:06 <phantomcircuit> does anybody know if the bignum size limitation in the script engine is permanent?
952 2011-05-23 05:30:08 <lfm> phantomcircuit: ya even 0.5 million btc we'd likely notice it seems
953 2011-05-23 05:30:13 <phantomcircuit> (it's limited to 31 bits + sign)
954 2011-05-23 05:30:32 <phantomcircuit> lfm, yeah it would be basically all of the first blocks which would be super obvious

980 2011-05-23 05:35:51 <jgarzik> kika_: I downloaded from AMD, and ran their install pkg
981 2011-05-23 05:36:06 <midnightmagic> yeah, I did that too..
982 2011-05-23 05:36:16 <kika_> jgarzik: okay ill do that, whats the fastest miner i can use on fedora 14 for my 6990 card? phoenix ?

984 2011-05-23 05:36:52 <lfm> any of the opencl are pretty close to the same, use whatever you like best
985 2011-05-23 05:37:04 <jgarzik> kika_: ask on #bitcoin-mining. convention wisdom seems to be "sdk 2.1 for 5xxx, sdk 2.4 for 6xxx". as for miner, poclbm is a favorite.
986 2011-05-23 05:37:20 <jgarzik> kika_: but it's money in your pocket, it's worth it to check...
987 2011-05-23 05:37:26 <jgarzik> kika_: play around with aticonfig too
988 2011-05-23 05:37:33 <midnightmagic> is poclbm as fast as the phatk kernel yet?
989 2011-05-23 05:37:47 <kika_> jgarzik: uhmm do you think ill need to install many dependencies to get poclbm working on fedora 14 ?
990 2011-05-23 05:37:55 <jgarzik> midnightmagic: depends on the GPU, I think
991 2011-05-23 05:38:09 <Diablo-D3> midnightmagic: no, but mine is
992 2011-05-23 05:38:17 <jgarzik> kika_: I only needed ati driver, ati sdk, icd reg, pyopencl, poclbm
993 2011-05-23 05:38:21 <Diablo-D3> assuming we're talking about phatk on 2.4 on the few machines it actually wins
994 2011-05-23 05:38:30 <Diablo-D3> phatk on 2.1 does nothing.
995 2011-05-23 05:38:32 <jgarzik> kika_: just did a F14 setup for my 2x5870 rig
996 2011-05-23 05:38:57 <kika_> jgarzik: so you installed icd reg, pyopencl via? .tar.gz ? packages?
997 2011-05-23 05:38:57 <Diablo-D3> on my 5850@765, -v 3 -w 128 on sdk 2.4 does 300, vs -v 2 -w 128 doing 300 on 2.1
998 2011-05-23 05:39:01 <Diablo-D3> its like fucking magic
999 2011-05-23 05:39:21 <jgarzik> kika_: tarball. I imagine someone has packaged it somewhere, but I didn't google around.
1000 2011-05-23 05:39:42 <jfksir> Diablo-D3: i'm running a 5850 - it was going 330 for a day then it decided to go only 300
1001 2011-05-23 05:39:46 <jfksir> i'm still confused
1002 2011-05-23 05:39:47 <jgarzik> kika_: just followed this, which is non-pkg install: http://forum.bitcoin.org/index.php?topic=1334.msg45364#msg45364

1060 2011-05-23 05:46:37 <kika_> whats the recommended way to clone the linux system on the 80gb disk to the 160gb disk?
1061 2011-05-23 05:46:51 <kika_> i want the system to be booteable
1062 2011-05-23 05:46:55 <Diablo-D3> kika_: recreate the partition table and rsync the roots.
1063 2011-05-23 05:47:36 <kika_> Diablo-D3: i need to do it over the network, basically i can go changing physically the hard disks between the pcs, thats why i was thinking clonezilla might help
1064 2011-05-23 05:47:43 <kika_> *i cant go
1065 2011-05-23 05:47:53 <Diablo-D3> you can rsync over networks
1066 2011-05-23 05:48:07 <Diablo-D3> but you need two livecds and the rsync daemon running on the target box

1163 2011-05-23 06:34:11 <MemoryException> Can anyone explain why when H==0x5be0cd19 it means that it was a valid hash? Is this something to do with a two stage SHA-256 algorithm?
1164 2011-05-23 06:34:57 <mtrlt> the actual condition is H==0
1165 2011-05-23 06:35:07 <MemoryException> well, yes... after adding 0x5be0cd19
1166 2011-05-23 06:35:10 <mtrlt> but the code doesn't do a couple of adds
1167 2011-05-23 06:35:21 <mtrlt> (at least my code)
1168 2011-05-23 06:35:49 <MemoryException> hmmm it looks like H is initialized to 0x5be0cd19 before the second round hash. Then, after the SHA-256 64 rounds, it will add 0x5be0cd19 and then check H == 0
1169 2011-05-23 06:36:10 <mtrlt> yea it's one of the initialization values for sha-256

1178 2011-05-23 06:37:35 <MemoryException> so, the GPU just finds candidates, and the computer confirms them?
1179 2011-05-23 06:37:44 <Diablo-D3> yes
1180 2011-05-23 06:38:03 <lfm> or rejects them
1181 2011-05-23 06:38:13 <Diablo-D3> yes, most are rejected
1182 2011-05-23 06:38:15 <MemoryException> hmm interesting. and it's possible for the GPU to find multiple candidates before finishing all 2^32 possible nonces?
1183 2011-05-23 06:38:21 <Diablo-D3> yes

1186 2011-05-23 06:38:32 <Diablo-D3> thats why my miner has multiple bins
1187 2011-05-23 06:38:42 <Diablo-D3> although I should cut down on the number of bins
1188 2011-05-23 06:38:47 <lfm> ya about 244 thousand rejects for one good one
1189 2011-05-23 06:38:54 <Diablo-D3> lfm: well
1190 2011-05-23 06:38:57 <Diablo-D3> at diff 1
1191 2011-05-23 06:39:01 <Diablo-D3> its half are rejected
1192 2011-05-23 06:39:13 <Diablo-D3> ;;bc,diff
1193 2011-05-23 06:39:13 <gribble> 244139.48158254
1194 2011-05-23 06:39:20 <Diablo-D3> so 244*2 are rejected currently.
1195 2011-05-23 06:39:22 <Diablo-D3> er
1196 2011-05-23 06:39:24 <Diablo-D3> 244k*2
1197 2011-05-23 06:39:27 <MemoryException> how does the computer determine whether to reject or accept them? it checks them against the threshold given by the server?
1198 2011-05-23 06:39:38 <Diablo-D3> MemoryException: it checks G and optionally F
1199 2011-05-23 06:39:50 <lfm> Diablo-D3: you're thinking testnet maybe, on main net its just the diff straight
1200 2011-05-23 06:40:00 <Diablo-D3> lfm: diff 1 == 1 in 2^33
1201 2011-05-23 06:40:07 <mtrlt> nope
1202 2011-05-23 06:40:07 <Diablo-D3> H is an int, thus 2^32
1203 2011-05-23 06:40:16 <mtrlt> diff 1 is target 0x0000FFFF00000..
1204 2011-05-23 06:40:20 <mtrlt> no
1205 2011-05-23 06:40:23 <mtrlt> 0x00000000FFFF00000 ..
1206 2011-05-23 06:40:33 <mtrlt> therefore almost 1 in 2^32
1207 2011-05-23 06:40:39 <Diablo-D3> 8 zeros, 4 Fs, rest zeros.
1208 2011-05-23 06:40:56 <Diablo-D3> in a hex string, 8 zeros is 32 bits of the number 0
1209 2011-05-23 06:40:59 <lfm> ya, thats not half
1210 2011-05-23 06:41:23 <mtrlt> most pools give a target of 8 zeros, rest Fs
1211 2011-05-23 06:41:34 <Diablo-D3> mtrlt: which is incorrect
1212 2011-05-23 06:41:43 <lfm> which is very close to the same
1213 2011-05-23 06:41:46 <mtrlt> a target cannot be incorrect
1214 2011-05-23 06:41:51 <MemoryException> why was the decision made for the GPU to only check H? did it end up being faster to store the candidates in bins and let the CPU decide, over having the extra comparisons on the GPU?
1215 2011-05-23 06:41:52 <mtrlt> it's all the same for the pool what the target is

1219 2011-05-23 06:42:26 <Diablo-D3> 2^32 - 0xFFFF0000 is 65536
1220 2011-05-23 06:42:33 <MemoryException> yes, I expect they would be...

1257 2011-05-23 06:47:18 <ninjaneo> i was hoping there was like a --without-ipv6

1405 2011-05-23 07:56:53 <Theaxiom> ersi, ahh that makes sense
1406 2011-05-23 07:57:11 <ersi> Theaxiom: Indeed :)
1407 2011-05-23 07:57:26 <Theaxiom> ersi, that is not exactly decentralized, lol
1408 2011-05-23 07:57:36 <Theaxiom> ersi, does the client accept any commands via IRC?
1409 2011-05-23 07:58:04 <ersi> AFAIK it's only to find each others, everything else is done over own client <> client connections
1410 2011-05-23 07:58:05 <MagicalTux> phantomcircuit, you needed something?

1417 2011-05-23 07:59:34 <MagicalTux> I guess it's linked to the fact that when the price gets higher, the amount of returned data increases
1418 2011-05-23 07:59:41 <Theaxiom> ersi, what if a govt decides to seize that IP address?
1419 2011-05-23 07:59:53 <Theaxiom> ersi, wouldn't that effectively hinder the p2p network?
1420 2011-05-23 08:00:04 <Theaxiom> ersi, are there other ways to manually bootstrap onto the network?

1428 2011-05-23 08:01:57 <Namegduf> Theaxiom: Yes. You can use -addnode and a fallback node.
1429 2011-05-23 08:02:13 <Theaxiom> Namegduf, good, thanks
1430 2011-05-23 08:02:38 <Theaxiom> Namegduf, I have designed a decentralized P2P network before, that is why I am asking these questions. Sorry if I am too nosey.
1431 2011-05-23 08:02:49 <Namegduf> No problem at all.
1432 2011-05-23 08:03:06 <Theaxiom> Namegduf, is there a command prompt for the windows client?
1433 2011-05-23 08:03:16 <Namegduf> Not sure.
1434 2011-05-23 08:03:19 <Theaxiom> Namegduf, I am looking through the rpc.cpp file and can see commands
1435 2011-05-23 08:06:27 <sipa> the binary is both gui, rpc server and rpc client
1436 2011-05-23 08:06:47 <sipa> depending on how you call it
1437 2011-05-23 08:06:48 <ersi> Theaxiom: Like Namegduf said, you can add nodes manually
1438 2011-05-23 08:06:58 <Theaxiom> sipa, it also appears to have a REST client, is that true?
1439 2011-05-23 08:07:53 <sipa> no idea what you mean
1440 2011-05-23 08:08:03 <Theaxiom> sipa, it has JSON-RPC
1441 2011-05-23 08:08:08 <sipa> yes
1442 2011-05-23 08:08:17 <Theaxiom> sipa, does it do that through the web?
1443 2011-05-23 08:08:57 <ersi> You communicate with the clients with RPC
1444 2011-05-23 08:09:15 <sipa> json rpc = funcrion args serialized in json transmitted over http
1445 2011-05-23 08:09:26 <sipa> function
1446 2011-05-23 08:09:28 <Theaxiom> sipa, that would be a REST client then :)
1447 2011-05-23 08:10:22 <sipa> not really - rest is just an idea, but typically says something about how urls refer to data

1549 2011-05-23 09:00:43 <kika__> Diablo-D3: the problem i have with your miner is that deepbit displays less Mhash than when using poclbm when i use poclbm deepbit says me 750Mhash with yours it says only 100Mhash
1550 2011-05-23 09:01:09 <Diablo-D3> kika__: deepbit uses an average
1551 2011-05-23 09:01:13 <Diablo-D3> its also highly inaccurate
1552 2011-05-23 09:02:02 <kika__> Diablo-D3: and why it displays 700Mhash for poclbm and only 100Mhash for DiabloMiner?
1553 2011-05-23 09:02:49 <Diablo-D3> kika__: because you're not making sense, for one
1554 2011-05-23 09:03:24 <kika__> Diablo-D3: ? i just tried the -v 3 -w 256
1555 2011-05-23 09:03:34 <Diablo-D3> and what did it say?
1556 2011-05-23 09:04:03 <ersi> kika__: You can't use Deepbit.net's number as a benchmark
1557 2011-05-23 09:04:10 <ersi> It's a "Luck-o-meter" if you havn't grasped it yet

1564 2011-05-23 09:04:44 <gjs278> the window that says 600000 khash

1576 2011-05-23 09:05:56 <ersi> Now, scroll up and read what everyone has written AGAIN.
1577 2011-05-23 09:06:29 <Diablo-D3> kika__: my miner has a hash meter. it is 100% accurate. what part are you getting confused with?
1578 2011-05-23 09:06:37 <kika__> everyone says deepbit hash meter is useless
1579 2011-05-23 09:06:55 <ersi> It is. It has no idea how many hashes you compute per minute.
1580 2011-05-23 09:07:07 <ersi> I mean, per second of course
1581 2011-05-23 09:07:19 <kika__> ersi: but it knows how many hashes you submit to them per minute
1582 2011-05-23 09:07:25 <Diablo-D3> no it doesnt.
1583 2011-05-23 09:07:27 <sipa> no
1584 2011-05-23 09:07:29 <Diablo-D3> thats not how miners work.
1585 2011-05-23 09:07:32 <sipa> you don't submit any hashes
1586 2011-05-23 09:07:34 <Namegduf> kika__: You do not submit every hash you generate
1587 2011-05-23 09:07:34 <sipa> you submit shares
1588 2011-05-23 09:07:43 <kika__> i see
1589 2011-05-23 09:07:44 <sipa> but only one in 4 billion hashes results in a share
1590 2011-05-23 09:07:44 <Namegduf> You submit potential blocks, infrequently
1591 2011-05-23 09:07:47 <kika__> so DEEPBIT LIED ME
1592 2011-05-23 09:07:49 <kika__> I HATE IT
1593 2011-05-23 09:07:49 <kika__> :P
1594 2011-05-23 09:07:50 <kika__> lol
1595 2011-05-23 09:07:51 <sipa> and those are rare
1596 2011-05-23 09:07:53 <sipa> they don't lie
1597 2011-05-23 09:07:57 <Diablo-D3> kika__: no, you cant fucking read.
1598 2011-05-23 09:08:01 <sipa> they just don't have a way for measuring it accurately
1599 2011-05-23 09:08:01 <ersi> It says so on the site. It's you who havn't read and parsed what it means.
1600 2011-05-23 09:08:10 <Diablo-D3> deepbit lists a VERY approximate value based on shares submitted recently
1601 2011-05-23 09:08:18 <Namegduf> I was a bit weireded out by the estimate being consistently about half what it should be
1602 2011-05-23 09:08:19 <Diablo-D3> its +/- 50% correct.
1603 2011-05-23 09:08:20 <Namegduf> But eh
1604 2011-05-23 09:08:29 <kika__> Diablo-D3: i see well i didnt know
1605 2011-05-23 09:08:32 <Namegduf> Either my nVidia thing is sucking or it's just a bad estimate
1606 2011-05-23 09:08:36 <ersi> Clearly.
1607 2011-05-23 09:08:36 <Namegduf> Either way, nought I could do.
1608 2011-05-23 09:08:42 <Diablo-D3> kika__: THERE IS A REASON MY MINER HAS A FUCKING HASH METER
1609 2011-05-23 09:08:46 <Diablo-D3> ITS
1610 2011-05-23 09:08:47 <Diablo-D3> RIGHT
1611 2011-05-23 09:08:47 <Diablo-D3> THERE
1612 2011-05-23 09:08:56 <BurtyBB> calm down it's only a miner
1613 2011-05-23 09:08:56 <molecular> I feel the forum search function is broken. Just entered a search for "eligius" => 0 results. then hit "revise search" => 1 result, then again search box on top => many results.
1614 2011-05-23 09:09:09 <sipa> @later tell BlueMatt would you be willing to do a build with rejectedtx+rescanupdated included? some sort of a 'recovery version'
1615 2011-05-23 09:09:27 <kika__> Diablo-D3: so your miner says 650000Khash/s i tought my 6990 card can do 700Mhash/s
1616 2011-05-23 09:09:30 <molecular> ;;later tell sipa did you do this right?
1617 2011-05-23 09:09:31 <gribble> The operation succeeded.

1626 2011-05-23 09:10:27 <kika__> Diablo-D3: poclbm worked at 325MBhash per core
1627 2011-05-23 09:10:38 <Diablo-D3> kika__: thats 650, dude.
1628 2011-05-23 09:10:43 <Diablo-D3> not 700
1629 2011-05-23 09:11:16 <kika__> yes true, your miner is doing the same that poclbm just that i was basing my decitions on deepbit hashmeter it sometimes said 750Mhash or 900Mhash :P
1630 2011-05-23 09:11:30 <kika__> ill try -v 2 -w 256 with your miner now
1631 2011-05-23 09:12:02 * BurtyBB classes deepbits number as a luck-o-meter
1632 2011-05-23 09:12:13 <Diablo-D3> USUALLY -v 3 -w 128 is fastest on sdk 2.4, or -v 3 -w 256 on memory underclocked radeons or 5970/6990s
1633 2011-05-23 09:12:19 <Diablo-D3> but ALL MACHINES ARE DIFFERENT
1634 2011-05-23 09:12:30 <Diablo-D3> my recommendations are not a replacement for testing
1635 2011-05-23 09:12:58 * ersi nods approvingly at BurtyBB

1637 2011-05-23 09:13:35 <ersi> Some serious rocket surgery
1638 2011-05-23 09:13:46 <kika__> im wondering if it would be useful for better mining to underclock my 6990 ? or maybe underclock the memory ?
1639 2011-05-23 09:14:06 <kika__> -v2 -w 256 is very slow 300000Khash/s
1640 2011-05-23 09:14:13 <Diablo-D3> btw, for the record
1641 2011-05-23 09:14:23 <Diablo-D3> a stock clocked 6990 is only about 650 to begin with
1642 2011-05-23 09:14:57 <Diablo-D3> kika__: then stick with -v 3 -w 256 or whatever was fastest
1643 2011-05-23 09:15:03 <kika__> Diablo-D3: yes true mine does that and is stock clocked
1644 2011-05-23 09:15:15 <Diablo-D3> you can try um

1649 2011-05-23 09:16:13 <Diablo-D3> most likely it will perform like shit
1650 2011-05-23 09:16:15 <Diablo-D3> but who knows

1652 2011-05-23 09:16:49 <ersi> It's usually not an euphorism for something good
1653 2011-05-23 09:16:59 <ersi> Usually means "crap" ie not good
1654 2011-05-23 09:17:12 <kika__> -v 3 - w 128 is only 30000Khash too
1655 2011-05-23 09:17:12 <Diablo-D3> I said shit, not the shit
1656 2011-05-23 09:18:51 <kika__> -v 36 -w 256 works at 550000Khash
1657 2011-05-23 09:19:03 <sipa> #bitcoin-mining ?
1658 2011-05-23 09:19:09 <kika__> but the card seems to be more silent
1659 2011-05-23 09:19:10 <kika__> :p
1660 2011-05-23 09:20:54 <Diablo-D3> kika__: try -v 4?
1661 2011-05-23 09:21:24 <kika__> -v 4 -w 256 is 550000Khash
1662 2011-05-23 09:21:34 <Diablo-D3> just use -v 3 -w 256 then
1663 2011-05-23 09:21:44 <kika__> k thxs
1664 2011-05-23 09:23:00 <kika__> -v 3 -w 256 is 660000Khash
1665 2011-05-23 09:23:38 <Diablo-D3> thats probably as fast as its getting
1666 2011-05-23 09:23:39 <Diablo-D3> and dude
1667 2011-05-23 09:23:42 <Diablo-D3> we call that 660 mhash
1668 2011-05-23 09:24:01 <kika__> yup that one wins! :) wondering if i can make this faster even with other miner?
1669 2011-05-23 09:24:27 <Diablo-D3> I doubt it
1670 2011-05-23 09:24:38 <kika__> k
1671 2011-05-23 09:24:41 <Diablo-D3> on 2.4, -v 3 -w 128/256 beats phatk on phoenix
1672 2011-05-23 09:25:05 <Diablo-D3> on 2.1, -v 2 -w 128/256 beats poclbm and phoenix on poclbm
1673 2011-05-23 09:25:41 <kika__> Diablo-D3: i have 2.4 sdk you think i need to downgrade to get faster?
1674 2011-05-23 09:26:01 <Diablo-D3> no
1675 2011-05-23 09:26:05 <kika__> k

1761 2011-05-23 11:01:28 <BlueMatt> pool
1762 2011-05-23 11:02:02 <sipa> new addresses are always taken from the pool
1763 2011-05-23 11:02:10 <zp> and if I call it 100 times?
1764 2011-05-23 11:02:44 <BlueMatt> it will top up the keypool each time
1765 2011-05-23 11:04:20 <zp> so it is guaranteed that I will never get the same address after calling getnewaddress? (i.e. it doesn't returns to the beginning of the pool after reaching 100, assumed that I don't recieve on those addresses)?
1766 2011-05-23 11:04:40 <sipa> wtf is there a call to GenerateBitcoins in f*cking net.cpp?

1771 2011-05-23 11:07:47 <sipa> no
1772 2011-05-23 11:07:56 <sipa> once it's been revealed to you, it will expect you to use it
1773 2011-05-23 11:08:27 <zp> thank you!
1774 2011-05-23 11:08:29 <sipa> and since you may have given it to someone who will pay you 15 years in the future, it will have to remain in your wallet

1851 2011-05-23 12:34:50 <phantomcircuit> WakiMiko_, 100% of it gets eaten up by fees
1852 2011-05-23 12:35:15 <WakiMiko_> wasnt the minimal fee lowered to 0.005?
1853 2011-05-23 12:35:27 <gmaxwell> Sometimes it would be preferable to round up the payment instead of the feeâ¦

1858 2011-05-23 12:37:36 <WakiMiko_> i think the fee system needs more work :P. upon trying to send a tx that requires a fee, the client should display the minimum required fee & an explanation why it is needed, and ask the user for confirmation

1897 2011-05-23 12:59:15 <gmaxwell> Right. Soâ better behavior to send it as a fee or to leave your wallet with money you can never spend (likely losing the funds to the network forever)?
1898 2011-05-23 12:59:42 <jrmithdobbs> gmaxwell: leave wallet with money you can never spend
1899 2011-05-23 12:59:51 <WakiMiko_> id rather leave it in my wallet, i can alwaysspend it when i receive more coins
1900 2011-05-23 12:59:51 <jrmithdobbs> gmaxwell: is the obvious better behaviour
1901 2011-05-23 13:00:12 <jrmithdobbs> gmaxwell: because there's a good chance you will be xfering more money to the account, if you wont you should manually specify it as fee
1902 2011-05-23 13:00:12 <sipa> i agree there should at least be a warning in the GUI before this is done
1903 2011-05-23 13:00:16 <jrmithdobbs> imho
1904 2011-05-23 13:00:32 <jrmithdobbs> sipa: not just the gui, bitcoind too
1905 2011-05-23 13:00:43 <jrmithdobbs> especially bitcoind, i'd say
1906 2011-05-23 13:01:07 <sipa> for bitcoind it should be configurable, indeed
1907 2011-05-23 13:01:18 <jrmithdobbs> merchants automating xfers suddenly losing a portion of their wallet doesn't exactly inspire confidence

1910 2011-05-23 13:01:27 <WakiMiko_> the last time i tried to send a tx that required a fee with bitcoind, it returned an error, so it migth be already in there?!
1911 2011-05-23 13:01:43 <jrmithdobbs> WakiMiko_: not for the case you're talking about
1912 2011-05-23 13:01:57 <jrmithdobbs> WakiMiko_: i only ever send payments through bitcoind and use the gui for pretty status info on pending txns
1913 2011-05-23 13:01:58 <WakiMiko_> oh ol
1914 2011-05-23 13:02:01 <WakiMiko_> *ok

1916 2011-05-23 13:02:25 <gmaxwell> Well, I'd agree that it should be a GUI only behavior if it does it at all.

1924 2011-05-23 13:05:42 <d1g1t4l> im sure theres already been a discussion about this but i cant find it, isnt it possible to affect the inflation of bitcoin by adding and removing processing power to the network?
1925 2011-05-23 13:05:56 <mtrlt> d1g1t4l: not in the long term
1926 2011-05-23 13:06:15 <mtrlt> because the difficulty will adjust every 2016 blocks (~2 weeks)
1927 2011-05-23 13:06:29 <d1g1t4l> i mean, if you add a lot of processing power for some time you increase the difficulty of generating coins and if you then remove that processing power you generate an artificail scarcity
1928 2011-05-23 13:07:00 <sipa> no, you will slow down the introduction rate of new currency
1929 2011-05-23 13:07:05 <d1g1t4l> exactly

1931 2011-05-23 13:07:14 <sipa> and yes, new currency is the most often traded probable
1932 2011-05-23 13:07:28 <sipa> but it doesn't really decrease the amount of bitcoin is circulation
1933 2011-05-23 13:07:32 <sipa> *in
1934 2011-05-23 13:07:46 <d1g1t4l> no but it decreases the derivative of the amount of bitcoin
1935 2011-05-23 13:07:52 <d1g1t4l> dont know if thats the way to say it in english
1936 2011-05-23 13:07:59 <sipa> you're right
1937 2011-05-23 13:08:18 <sipa> but the influence is limited to the next retarget
1938 2011-05-23 13:08:26 <gmaxwell> d1g1t4l: however it's all quite predictable, in the sense that it will go back up again in 2016 blocks.
1939 2011-05-23 13:08:34 <d1g1t4l> i was thinking of a short term trader sitting in front of his monitor
1940 2011-05-23 13:08:47 <d1g1t4l> if there are many of those on line at the same time you can affect their behaviour
1941 2011-05-23 13:08:59 <d1g1t4l> and you can artificially increase the price of something you want to sell
1942 2011-05-23 13:09:11 <gmaxwell> (and in all small markets you can do things to totally manipulate ignorant traders)
1943 2011-05-23 13:10:00 <d1g1t4l> to me the weakness here relies on the way bitcoins are generated, normally the amount of currency is meant to reflect the amount of goods available
1944 2011-05-23 13:10:07 <d1g1t4l> but i cant see that relation with bitcoin

1946 2011-05-23 13:10:36 <gmaxwell> The coins in a 2016 block window only represent about 1.6% of the coins already in existance, so you're taking about making few percent swings on a fairly small proportion of the coin population.
1947 2011-05-23 13:11:10 <d1g1t4l> why do you presume it is only possible to affect one window?
1948 2011-05-23 13:11:38 <d1g1t4l> it will be more difficult with the second window and so on but in theory it is possible to affect a finite number of windows
1949 2011-05-23 13:11:52 <sipa> you are right
1950 2011-05-23 13:11:55 <sipa> see http://bitcoin.sipa.be/speed.png
1951 2011-05-23 13:12:22 <sipa> in march 2011 there was a spike (called the 'mystery miner' at the time), which suddenly disappeared
1952 2011-05-23 13:12:34 <sipa> you can see quite well how it influences the difficulty

1956 2011-05-23 13:18:51 <d1g1t4l> <d1g1t4l> another question, when the maximum number of bitcoins is reached wont we enter a phase in which everything becomes progressively more expensive?
1957 2011-05-23 13:18:54 <d1g1t4l> <d1g1t4l> inflation would be uncapped then and in the long term all the coins would be in the hands of a single user
1958 2011-05-23 13:18:57 <d1g1t4l> <d1g1t4l> is there anything in place to stop that from happening?
1959 2011-05-23 13:19:31 <Nesetalis> so, the stackexchange site for bitcoin has finally got in to the commitment phase.. anyone else going to commit? http://area51.stackexchange.com/proposals/30763/bitcoin-crypto-currency?referrer=ZoaawmVheQ_spDOgXlkhmg2
1960 2011-05-23 13:19:52 <gmaxwell> Bitcoin is deflationary, but your conclusion that one user will eventually have all the coin doesn't follow.
1961 2011-05-23 13:20:14 <gmaxwell> d1g1t4l: the deflation is why coin is divisible to very tiny parts.
1962 2011-05-23 13:20:37 <d1g1t4l> if everything becomes more expensive at some point any goods will be as expensive as all the bitcoins in circulation
1963 2011-05-23 13:20:47 <d1g1t4l> so to make a single purchase you will need to spend all the bitcoins
1964 2011-05-23 13:20:55 <d1g1t4l> and the person selling that good would receive them all
1965 2011-05-23 13:21:10 <d1g1t4l> the reasoning might be wrong of course
1966 2011-05-23 13:21:42 <sipa> i think the rule is +-: bitcoins_in_circulation*exchange_rate_of_bitcoin = value_of_bitcoin_economy
1967 2011-05-23 13:21:57 <sipa> "in circulation" and "economy" are very fuzzily defined though
1968 2011-05-23 13:22:37 <gmaxwell> d1g1t4l: er. no. a finite supply of bitcoins means that a good of a fixed value costs _less_ bitcoins over time.
1969 2011-05-23 13:23:26 aninoni has joined
1970 2011-05-23 13:23:37 <d1g1t4l> normally is the value of the goods that fixes the amount of currency units you pay for them, how do you justify bitcoin working the other way around?
1971 2011-05-23 13:23:41 <gmaxwell> e.g. today an apple costs perhaps 0.4 BTC but if bitcoin is successful an apple may someday cost 0.00005 BTC.
1972 2011-05-23 13:23:51 <Diablo-D3> wow, Ive never done over 5000 shares on my own miner in a row before
1973 2011-05-23 13:24:20 <d1g1t4l> with every currency in the world an apple costs more units in the future than at the present time
1974 2011-05-23 13:24:32 <gmaxwell> d1g1t4l: because the (eventual) amount of bitcoin is a constant, so as more goods become available the value of each bitcoin goes _up_.
1975 2011-05-23 13:24:41 <sipa> d1g1t4l: bitcoin is more an electronic imitation of a tradable resource like gold, than an electronic fiat currency
1976 2011-05-23 13:24:48 <sipa> d1g1t4l: it's a design decision
1977 2011-05-23 13:25:11 <luke-jr> gmaxwell: s/0.00005 BTC/0.05 mBTC/
1978 2011-05-23 13:25:18 <phantomcircuit> d1g1t4l, not to mention it really is an "if you dont like it dont use it" kind of thing
1979 2011-05-23 13:25:22 <aninoni> hey all, does anyone have experience with automated trading with mtgox via their api?
1980 2011-05-23 13:25:22 <d1g1t4l> thats what i dont get, how are you going to force the owner of the apple to sell the apple for a lower amount of currency units than he bought it for?
1981 2011-05-23 13:25:33 <gmaxwell> d1g1t4l: because in those currencies people are adding supply without bound. Though I'd protest 'all', gold is a currency too for example, and it takes far less gold now to buy an apple then it did 200 years ago. :)
1982 2011-05-23 13:25:40 <sipa> d1g1t4l: nobody forces anyone, it's just a free market
1983 2011-05-23 13:25:43 <davex__> d1g1t4l, he will want to sell it for less.
1984 2011-05-23 13:25:43 <luke-jr> d1g1t4l: fail

1988 2011-05-23 13:26:02 <sipa> d1g1t4l: people will be willing to sell for less, and the value of the currency has gone up
1989 2011-05-23 13:26:30 <gmaxwell> And he'llbe willing to sell for less because everyone else will be too, so he'll not lose any buying power from the transaction.
1990 2011-05-23 13:26:41 <d1g1t4l> i understand the concept what i am arguing is that the psicology of the people that would use it doesnt work like that
1991 2011-05-23 13:27:22 <jrmithdobbs> d1g1t4l: like i said, time will tell
1992 2011-05-23 13:27:23 <sipa> it's how currencies worked for the largest part of human history actually
1993 2011-05-23 13:27:34 <gmaxwell> d1g1t4l: People used precious metals and other things which didn't rapidly lose value as currency for thousands of years.
1994 2011-05-23 13:27:36 <sipa> free trade, using some limited resource as token of value
1995 2011-05-23 13:27:39 <d1g1t4l> when we started using the euro in Europe in most countries people took advantage to convert the prices in a way that everything was more expensive, that didnt benefit them at all but they still did

1997 2011-05-23 13:28:15 <d1g1t4l> people dont normally make sensible decisions when they decide the price of the goods they sell

1999 2011-05-23 13:28:34 <gmaxwell> d1g1t4l: indeed, in any case.. right.
2000 2011-05-23 13:28:51 <sipa> there is one argument against deflationally currencies i agree with: people will not like a contract which stipulates a decreasing wage
2001 2011-05-23 13:29:12 <sipa> that is indeed purely psychological, but very real
2002 2011-05-23 13:30:10 <luke-jr> gmaxwell: the problem is rapidly gaining value
2003 2011-05-23 13:30:12 <phantomcircuit> sipa, one of the few points that keynes had which was valid
2004 2011-05-23 13:30:18 <d1g1t4l> anyway, i just wanted to ask my questions and say to whoever is developing this that he/she is doing a really good job
2005 2011-05-23 13:30:21 <gmaxwell> Plus, it's not clear that any alternative would have worked better: in a trustworthy distributed system there still could be no authority to choose the inflation rate. So even if we had forever-inflation, the rate would have to be built in and it's not clear to me that an unmanaged inflation is any better than unmanaged deflation.
2006 2011-05-23 13:30:24 <luke-jr> ie, why resell apples, when you can just hoard your bitcoin?
2007 2011-05-23 13:30:29 <phantomcircuit> sipa, workers demand wages in terms of arbitrary numbers, not real goods

2012 2011-05-23 13:33:04 <sipa> phantomcircuit: not reinventing, just applying - though i didn't know the exact term :)
2013 2011-05-23 13:33:52 <gmaxwell> I've been a party to CPI adjusted contracts⦠fwiw.
2014 2011-05-23 13:34:09 <gmaxwell> Not a normal term for someone's wage though!

2070 2011-05-23 14:19:26 <sipa> they're manageable through json-rpc, but they are hidden in the gui

2129 2011-05-23 15:39:11 <UukGoblin> dinox, how much ram have you got?
2130 2011-05-23 15:39:21 <dinox> 512mb
2131 2011-05-23 15:39:27 <UukGoblin> dinox, that's way not enough
2132 2011-05-23 15:39:32 <UukGoblin> I had problems with 1GB
2133 2011-05-23 15:39:35 <dinox> aww, hmm
2134 2011-05-23 15:39:39 <sipa> my vps with ubuntu 10.04 can compile bitcoin just fine
2135 2011-05-23 15:39:45 <sipa> and 512 MiB RAM
2136 2011-05-23 15:39:59 <UukGoblin> interesting
2137 2011-05-23 15:40:11 <sipa> with 256 MiB RAM it was also possible, but it took some 10 hours :)
2138 2011-05-23 15:40:17 <dinox> sipa: yes, this is a vps too with 512mb
2139 2011-05-23 15:40:21 <UukGoblin> well I didn't have any swap enabled
2140 2011-05-23 15:40:22 <dinox> hehe
2141 2011-05-23 15:40:56 <UukGoblin> sipa, do you know some magic g++ options to reduce memory usage?

2183 2011-05-23 16:13:12 <diki> if Bitcoin is running, then bitcoind says that it cannot obtain a lock on the data

2185 2011-05-23 16:13:23 <diki> then how do i query the confirmations of a block?
2186 2011-05-23 16:13:31 <sipa> only bitcoin or bitcoind can be running, not both at the same time
2187 2011-05-23 16:13:38 <sipa> but you can run bitcoin in server mode
2188 2011-05-23 16:13:43 <sipa> enabling rpc commands
2189 2011-05-23 16:14:03 <diki> and how would an rpc command be used to get the confirmations of a block?
2190 2011-05-23 16:14:14 <diki> as bitcoin is running in server mode
2191 2011-05-23 16:14:18 <sipa> ...
2192 2011-05-23 16:14:24 <sipa> bitcoind listtransactions
2193 2011-05-23 16:15:12 <diki> but then i get
2194 2011-05-23 16:15:13 <diki> Bitcoin: Cannot obtain a lock on data directory
2195 2011-05-23 16:15:24 <sipa> are you sure?
2196 2011-05-23 16:15:28 <diki> positive
2197 2011-05-23 16:15:36 <sipa> what exactly are you typing/running where?
2198 2011-05-23 16:15:46 <diki> i type bitcoind -listtransactions
2199 2011-05-23 16:15:58 <sipa> did you see any '-' in the suggestion we gave you?
2200 2011-05-23 16:16:34 <diki> so what exactly is listtransactions if not an argument?
2201 2011-05-23 16:16:36 C4away has joined
2202 2011-05-23 16:16:48 <sipa> it's a command
2203 2011-05-23 16:16:54 <sipa> to be passed to a running bitcoin or bitcoind instance
2204 2011-05-23 16:16:57 <sipa> through rpc
2205 2011-05-23 16:17:05 <sipa> it's not an option for the binary you're invoking
2206 2011-05-23 16:17:33 <sipa> type bitcoin --help for an explanation
2207 2011-05-23 16:17:42 <diki> can commands be passed to any program if it were coded to accept them?
2208 2011-05-23 16:18:03 <sipa> uh this is quite bitcoin/bitcoind specific
2209 2011-05-23 16:18:06 <diki> i typed that, but listtransactions was not in it
2210 2011-05-23 16:18:19 <sipa> *sigh*
2211 2011-05-23 16:18:31 <sipa> bitcoin [options] <command> [params] Send command to -server or bitcoind
2212 2011-05-23 16:18:54 <sipa> ok, sorry, i assumed there was some mentioning of the help command
2213 2011-05-23 16:19:14 <sipa> try typing "bitcoin help" (without any minus sign)
2214 2011-05-23 16:19:34 <sipa> that sends the help command to bitcoind/bitcoin, and will show you the possible rpc commands
2215 2011-05-23 16:19:47 <sipa> (which are different from the options parsed by the rpc client itself)
2216 2011-05-23 16:19:49 <diki> that is still a bit confusing tho
2217 2011-05-23 16:20:06 <diki> i thought that every program needed -args to do anything
2218 2011-05-23 16:20:18 <diki> program -somearg -secondarg

2220 2011-05-23 16:20:36 <sipa> typically, -<something> is used to modify a program's behaviour, but normal arguments are used to pass it data
2221 2011-05-23 16:20:48 <sipa> eg. the cat command takes a list of filenames on the command line
2222 2011-05-23 16:21:00 <sipa> no reason to do that through an option

2225 2011-05-23 16:21:33 <diki> I thought that functions types can be int,bool and void
2226 2011-05-23 16:21:38 <diki> never heard of Value
2227 2011-05-23 16:21:48 <sipa> it's a own data type
2228 2011-05-23 16:21:53 <sipa> but maybe you should learn C++ first
2229 2011-05-23 16:22:00 <diki> I am
2230 2011-05-23 16:22:05 <diki> Just now :)
2231 2011-05-23 16:22:36 <diki> And whatever i may have learned from books or so...there hasn't been much about custom function types
2232 2011-05-23 16:22:49 <sipa> no custom function type at all
2233 2011-05-23 16:22:56 <sipa> Value is just a data type
2234 2011-05-23 16:23:00 <sipa> it's defined in json/json_spirit_value.h
2235 2011-05-23 16:23:23 <ninjaneo> heh
2236 2011-05-23 16:24:07 <diki> you've memorized quite a lot

2249 2011-05-23 16:28:56 <ninjaneo> or msys and have grep on windows
2250 2011-05-23 16:29:00 <diki> anyway, if cygwin or mingw have no problems with unix sockets and stuff like that, then compiling pushpoold may be a matter of time

2254 2011-05-23 16:29:36 <jrmithdobbs> libevent requires kernel hooks

2256 2011-05-23 16:30:01 <Ramen> the wiki talked about moving the decimal point to deal with inflation/deflation. how would they go about doing that. I mean with all the exchanges it seems really easy for the ppl unaware to get ripped off
2257 2011-05-23 16:30:09 <jrmithdobbs> i would be quite surprised if there is a working win32 port of libevent because similar functionality already exists in the win32 api with (completely) different semantics
2258 2011-05-23 16:30:24 <diki> actually here is a compiled dll
2259 2011-05-23 16:30:29 <diki> *there
2260 2011-05-23 16:30:33 <diki> but it's version 1.3
2261 2011-05-23 16:32:38 <diki> Also, why most pools declare a block invalid if it doesnt have 100 confirmations?
2262 2011-05-23 16:32:52 <diki> rather how do they know if it's invalid?
2263 2011-05-23 16:33:03 <sipa> invalid? they just wait until there are 100 confirmations
2264 2011-05-23 16:33:16 <diki> a 100 is a lot
2265 2011-05-23 16:33:19 <sipa> because they don't get the income themselves until 100 confirmation have passed
2266 2011-05-23 16:33:27 <sipa> so they can't spend it either
2267 2011-05-23 16:33:29 <diki> isn't it 120 blocks?
2268 2011-05-23 16:33:44 <sipa> the GUI client enforces 120 blocks, the protocol requires 100
2269 2011-05-23 16:33:46 <ninjaneo> sipa is a g theres no doubt about that lol ive seen some of his commits =p

2274 2011-05-23 16:34:10 <ninjaneo> lol
2275 2011-05-23 16:34:41 <ninjaneo> do pool operators wait the 100 blocks before paying out users hten?
2276 2011-05-23 16:34:49 <sipa> some do, some don't
2277 2011-05-23 16:35:00 <sipa> if they don't, they need some buffer to get the money frm
2278 2011-05-23 16:35:11 <diki> I am just curios. Do they declare the block invalid if it doesnt reach 100 confirms?

2280 2011-05-23 16:35:35 <sipa> there is no such thing
2281 2011-05-23 16:35:36 <diki> My point is, it could take 1 week before a block get's validated
2282 2011-05-23 16:35:52 <sipa> either it ends up in the chain that gets continued, and its confirmation count goes to infinity
2283 2011-05-23 16:35:54 <ninjaneo> diki it is listed as immature / unconfirmed
2284 2011-05-23 16:36:02 <sipa> immature
2285 2011-05-23 16:36:09 <sipa> unconfirmed is for non-generation tx's
2286 2011-05-23 16:36:14 <jrmithdobbs> diki: takes about 24 hours on average
2287 2011-05-23 16:36:32 <diki> So if by 24 hours, a block does not get 100 confirms= invalid
2288 2011-05-23 16:36:32 <sipa> ... or it ends up on the wrong side of a chain split, and it just gets removed
2289 2011-05-23 16:36:33 <lianj> 20 hours before a transactions is set in stone? nobody can every claim bitcoin is instant or you can just send them peer-to-peer

2293 2011-05-23 16:37:01 <diki> i am sorry i am bit lost here
2294 2011-05-23 16:37:03 <sipa> diki: you just *wait* until 100 confirmations are reached
2295 2011-05-23 16:37:06 <sipa> there is nothing invalid
2296 2011-05-23 16:37:25 <diki> pools say invalid tho
2297 2011-05-23 16:37:32 <Nesetalis> diki, consider it like in escrow
2298 2011-05-23 16:37:33 <UukGoblin> well if block doesn't get into blockchain after 100 new blocks were generated...
2299 2011-05-23 16:37:33 <sipa> if it doesn't reach 100 confirmations, it means it ended up at the wrong side of a split, and it just stops *existing*
2300 2011-05-23 16:37:34 <jrmithdobbs> unless something whacky is going on it'll chain split within the first couple blocks
2301 2011-05-23 16:37:41 <Nesetalis> you have to wait 100 confirmations before they release it from escrow
2302 2011-05-23 16:37:48 <jrmithdobbs> and it sorts itself out pretty quick

2304 2011-05-23 16:37:56 <UukGoblin> ... it's unlikely it'll ever get back to the chain again
2305 2011-05-23 16:38:03 <sipa> and we assume that if it reaches 100 confirmations, it will not be reverted anymore
2306 2011-05-23 16:38:13 <diki> So...via my pool i request bitcoind listtransactions and check how many confirms it has...
2307 2011-05-23 16:38:16 <sipa> yes
2308 2011-05-23 16:38:23 <jrmithdobbs> sipa: so is the artificiall +20 limit going to be removed from the official client?
2309 2011-05-23 16:38:23 <diki> say it's 99
2310 2011-05-23 16:38:31 <sipa> jrmithdobbs: no
2311 2011-05-23 16:38:35 <jrmithdobbs> sipa: why?
2312 2011-05-23 16:38:46 <UukGoblin> yeah it's 120 confirms btw, isn't it?
2313 2011-05-23 16:38:47 fimp has joined
2314 2011-05-23 16:38:55 <sipa> UukGoblin: protocol requires only 100
2315 2011-05-23 16:39:05 <UukGoblin> ah.
2316 2011-05-23 16:39:07 <jrmithdobbs> UukGoblin: no, it's 100. the protocol will let you create txns with the coins after 100 blocks. client artificially limits to 120
2317 2011-05-23 16:39:15 <UukGoblin> I see.
2318 2011-05-23 16:39:16 <sipa> there was a reason for this
2319 2011-05-23 16:39:40 <sipa> has to do with reorganisations, that a tx could end up earlier in the block chain than before, and thus incur an extra fee
2320 2011-05-23 16:39:41 <jrmithdobbs> sipa: that's as in depth as anyone has said, though, "there was a reason" ... noone knows what it was
2321 2011-05-23 16:39:48 <diki> so when bitcoind is at 99 confirms what happens later?
2322 2011-05-23 16:39:58 <ArtForzZz> jrmithdobbs: dont proclaim shit you have no clue about
2323 2011-05-23 16:39:58 <luke-jr> 100
2324 2011-05-23 16:40:21 <ArtForzZz> btw, the real limit is 101, not 100
2325 2011-05-23 16:40:27 <jrmithdobbs> ArtForzZz: ? that's all anyone's been able to tell me when asked
2326 2011-05-23 16:40:29 <lianj> sipa: oh now it get it. was going to ask what you mean with generating txs.. but you mean spent new bitcoins again
2327 2011-05-23 16:40:45 <ArtForzZz> reason is simple, imagine a chain split where tx end up in a *earlier* block
2328 2011-05-23 16:40:46 <jrmithdobbs> ArtForzZz: obviously there is some reason it's 120 i'm just trying to figure out what
2329 2011-05-23 16:40:59 <ArtForzZz> which can happen
2330 2011-05-23 16:41:21 <sipa> lianj: for spending a normal output, the protocol limit is 0 blocks - for spending a coinbase output, the limit is 100 blocks
2331 2011-05-23 16:41:42 <ArtForzZz> sipa: it's > 100 blocks, aka >= 101 blocks ;)
2332 2011-05-23 16:41:50 <sipa> the client however enforces 1 block for normal outputs and 120 blocks for coinbases
2333 2011-05-23 16:41:56 ntosme2 has quit (Ping timeout: 260 seconds)
2334 2011-05-23 16:42:02 <ArtForzZz> there has to be 100 blocks *after* the block the coinbase is in
2335 2011-05-23 16:42:02 <sipa> ArtForzZz: could be, but i assume you're right
2336 2011-05-23 16:42:16 <ArtForzZz> I tested it on testnet like ages ago
2337 2011-05-23 16:42:19 <diki> So i know how to code my website, but i have no idea how to code the block confirm check
2338 2011-05-23 16:42:22 <diki> it's still fuzzy to me

2340 2011-05-23 16:42:47 <jrmithdobbs> ArtForzZz: so if it ends up earlier in the block chain due to a split what happens?
2341 2011-05-23 16:42:53 <ArtForzZz> jrmithdobbs: it can't
2342 2011-05-23 16:43:00 <lianj> sipa: thank you, that makes sense!
2343 2011-05-23 16:43:02 <ArtForzZz> because it isn't valid in a earlier block
2344 2011-05-23 16:43:12 <jrmithdobbs> ah! ok i see
2345 2011-05-23 16:43:26 <Nesetalis> diki.. just check which block number it is.. and wait till its that block number + 120 :p
2346 2011-05-23 16:43:35 <ArtForzZz> thats why theres a 20 (well, 19) block buffer
2347 2011-05-23 16:43:35 <Nesetalis> or.. count how many over that block number it is
2348 2011-05-23 16:43:45 <jrmithdobbs> so the +20 (or 19 it sounds like) is just a precaution to prevent yourself from fucking yourself in case of an unforseen reorg
2349 2011-05-23 16:43:57 <jrmithdobbs> makes sense.
2350 2011-05-23 16:44:02 <ArtForzZz> yep
2351 2011-05-23 16:44:34 <sipa> ArtForzZz: not sure how necessary the 120 rule is in that case - i suppose it should just be kept in the memory pool until it does reach 101?

2363 2011-05-23 16:45:23 <UukGoblin> just how many orphaned blocks have we got btw?
2364 2011-05-23 16:45:24 <sipa> that means 1720 confirmations

2367 2011-05-23 16:45:36 <gmaxwell> the client should be lowered to the absolute minimum I think. There is basicaly no chance of a netwok split big enough for that to be problematic now.
2368 2011-05-23 16:45:40 <ArtForzZz> but it's at least a few 100
2369 2011-05-23 16:45:46 <UukGoblin> ArtForzZz, really? no-one remembers them?

2376 2011-05-23 16:46:18 <diki> So say i have a block which is at 99 confirms. And wont get passed 100
2377 2011-05-23 16:46:20 <gmaxwell> (or if there was a big split, you're unlikely to be on the losing side for 100 blocks)

2382 2011-05-23 16:46:50 <sipa> it's invalid if it doesn't exist in listtransactions anymore

2386 2011-05-23 16:47:05 <sipa> it's immature if it doesn't have 120 confirmations

2404 2011-05-23 16:48:58 <Diablo-D3> when the hell is bitcoin going to support commands in satoshis
2405 2011-05-23 16:49:28 <ArtForzZz> Diablo-D3: probbaly sometime between "after hell freezes over" and "never"
2406 2011-05-23 16:49:43 <Diablo-D3> well its fucking absurd I support high precision in my shit
2407 2011-05-23 16:49:48 <Diablo-D3> and have to dumb it down
2408 2011-05-23 16:49:52 <ArtForzZz> Diablo-D3: huh?
2409 2011-05-23 16:50:05 <Diablo-D3> I keep track of raw satoshis in my pool
2410 2011-05-23 16:50:10 <ArtForzZz> it already takes/returns stuff with up to 8 decimal places
2411 2011-05-23 16:50:21 <sipa> parse it as a double, multiple with 100000000, and round to nearest integer
2412 2011-05-23 16:50:28 <Diablo-D3> sipa: > round
2413 2011-05-23 16:50:29 <Diablo-D3> you fail
2414 2011-05-23 16:50:35 <ArtForzZz> or parse it as a decimal with precision=8
2415 2011-05-23 16:50:41 <sipa> since a double has 53 bits of mantissa, which is more than 10^8, it should always be exact
2416 2011-05-23 16:50:50 <sipa> eh, more than 21M*10^8
2417 2011-05-23 16:51:09 <diki> sipa, how should i store my rewards var i.e BTC for the worker. double, float?
2418 2011-05-23 16:51:19 <ArtForzZz> int64 ?
2419 2011-05-23 16:51:32 <diki> what? mysql doesnt support that
2420 2011-05-23 16:51:48 <sipa> mysql sure has some integer type
2421 2011-05-23 16:51:56 <sipa> that supports at least 64-bit numbers
2422 2011-05-23 16:52:03 <diki> Integer = 1234324. it's not 1.8974234
2423 2011-05-23 16:52:09 <Diablo-D3> diki: integer satoshis
2424 2011-05-23 16:52:17 <ArtForzZz> I prefer keeping stuff around in integer satoshis internally
2425 2011-05-23 16:52:34 <sipa> internally either store everything as an integer multiple of 0.00000001, or as a decimal type
2426 2011-05-23 16:52:39 <ArtForzZz> just watch out for rounding errors ;)
2427 2011-05-23 16:52:42 <sipa> never as a double
2428 2011-05-23 16:52:47 <ArtForzZz> sipa: agreed
2429 2011-05-23 16:53:11 <diki> integer multiple of 0.00000001,<- i dont quite get that part
2430 2011-05-23 16:53:11 <sipa> some languages/platforms even have a decimal type they call currency - for good reason :)
2431 2011-05-23 16:53:24 <ArtForzZz> making sure that the balances actually balance is... fun!
2432 2011-05-23 16:53:27 <sipa> diki: if you want to store the number 50.12 BTC, you store the integer 5012000000

2435 2011-05-23 16:53:57 <Diablo-D3> how do I check if an address is invalid?
2436 2011-05-23 16:54:10 <ArtForzZz> Diablo-D3: you ask your bitcoind nicely
2437 2011-05-23 16:54:24 <Diablo-D3> oh theres a validate address command now
2438 2011-05-23 16:54:31 <sipa> you can implement the logic yourself, there are nice examples in many languages
2439 2011-05-23 16:54:37 <sipa> but asking bitcoind is probably easier
2440 2011-05-23 16:54:44 <ArtForzZz> sipa: yep, but thats kinda more error prone

2446 2011-05-23 16:55:22 <sipa> diki: no, *100000000
2447 2011-05-23 16:55:28 <diki> oops, right
2448 2011-05-23 16:55:31 <sipa> but what it means is /100000000

2452 2011-05-23 16:55:53 <diki> but initially the bitcoins will be 50.XX

2459 2011-05-23 16:57:04 <diki> how can we avoid rounding?
2460 2011-05-23 16:57:08 <ArtForzZz> you can't

2462 2011-05-23 16:58:18 <diki> one thing is puzzling me. When pushpool stores found blocks, it does not store them by block number
2463 2011-05-23 16:58:24 <diki> how do i figure out the block #?

2466 2011-05-23 16:58:40 <sipa> what does it store?

2469 2011-05-23 16:58:42 <sipa> block id?
2470 2011-05-23 16:59:03 <diki> it stores data, hash1 and another one as well into one big hash
2471 2011-05-23 16:59:25 <diki> and if it's easy target...i couldnt even find it on blockexplorer
2472 2011-05-23 16:59:49 <sipa> that sounds like shares, not blocks, but possibly including them
2473 2011-05-23 16:59:51 <sipa> anyway, gotta go
2474 2011-05-23 16:59:53 <Nesetalis> you can see the current block number easily enough with getinfo
2475 2011-05-23 17:01:06 <diki> but what if by the time the program checks for the block number...another block is found?
2476 2011-05-23 17:01:09 <Nesetalis> fuck... no.. not again ;.; -has had hickups constantly since dinner last night... almost 15 hours now-
2477 2011-05-23 17:01:33 <Nesetalis> then the block's confirmations will be 1 instead of 0

2481 2011-05-23 17:02:11 <Nesetalis> i'm suffering here.. I dont want to even imagine going an entire day like this, let alone 50 years.
2482 2011-05-23 17:02:39 <UukGoblin> 68 years, to be precise ]:->
2483 2011-05-23 17:02:43 <pirrr> Wow, this is special, I normally get ~20 connections in bitcoin, now after a reboot I have >800...
2484 2011-05-23 17:02:59 <Nesetalis> i get a max of 8 connections
2485 2011-05-23 17:02:59 <pirrr> How come?
2486 2011-05-23 17:03:03 <diki> i also get 8
2487 2011-05-23 17:03:08 <diki> rarely 50
2488 2011-05-23 17:03:28 <pirrr> did you open your ports?

2494 2011-05-23 17:04:19 <diki> is blkmond useful for something?
2495 2011-05-23 17:04:31 <diki> it prints stuff on the console, but that's about it
2496 2011-05-23 17:04:39 <diki> i find it useless
2497 2011-05-23 17:04:57 <pirrr> UukGoblin: I now have 850 connections, it might be good to limit it...
2498 2011-05-23 17:05:14 <diki> oh seems i have 64

2502 2011-05-23 17:06:24 <Diablo-D3> I think my pool is actually mostly functional
2503 2011-05-23 17:06:27 <Diablo-D3> it takes in shares
2504 2011-05-23 17:06:30 <Diablo-D3> it counts shares
2505 2011-05-23 17:06:31 <diki> will it be open source?
2506 2011-05-23 17:06:35 <Diablo-D3> it pays out currency in theory
2507 2011-05-23 17:06:37 <Diablo-D3> diki: duh

2510 2011-05-23 17:06:59 <diki> there are people out there that say they are coding something big but only for themselves
2511 2011-05-23 17:07:09 <diki> java?
2512 2011-05-23 17:07:14 <Diablo-D3> diki: yes.
2513 2011-05-23 17:07:46 <pirrr> UukGoblin: how do you limit your up-connections?
2514 2011-05-23 17:07:56 <diki> i can already imagine how much public Function stuff you have

2518 2011-05-23 17:12:04 <Dekbit> Diablo: you commenting your code? =P
2519 2011-05-23 17:12:17 <diki> huh?
2520 2011-05-23 17:12:38 <Diablo-D3> diki: what is wrong with public methods?
2521 2011-05-23 17:12:43 <Diablo-D3> Dekbit: possibly.
2522 2011-05-23 17:12:46 <Dekbit> will be 1000x better than pushpool if so
2523 2011-05-23 17:12:54 <Diablo-D3> the problem is, my code doesnt suck dick
2524 2011-05-23 17:12:55 <Dekbit> but somehow i doubt it from that answer ;)
2525 2011-05-23 17:13:00 <Diablo-D3> its rather self commenting
2526 2011-05-23 17:13:05 <Dekbit> haha self commenting
2527 2011-05-23 17:13:06 <Dekbit> you rule

2529 2011-05-23 17:13:31 <diki> i suggest a very descriptive README

2532 2011-05-23 17:13:42 <Diablo-D3> even less descriptive than diablominer's
2533 2011-05-23 17:13:46 <Dekbit> a readme? thats just crazy talk
2534 2011-05-23 17:13:48 <diki> i hate to read code and then find out how it works

2536 2011-05-23 17:14:03 <Dekbit> why would someone put a shit ton of work into something, release it open source, then actually make it easy for people to use? thats insane

2543 2011-05-23 17:14:33 <Dekbit> no the best way is do all the work, release it in a form no one can use, then paste it constantly as the answer to peoples questions
2544 2011-05-23 17:15:05 <Nesetalis> what language Diablo-D3?
2545 2011-05-23 17:16:33 <Diablo-D3> java
2546 2011-05-23 17:16:41 <Diablo-D3> and hey, its not like DiabloMiner is hard to read
2547 2011-05-23 17:16:50 <Diablo-D3> the json parser is a little hairy, but I wanna replace it with my new one anyhow
2548 2011-05-23 17:16:52 <Nesetalis> well, java i suppose is better than VB.. :D
2549 2011-05-23 17:17:02 <diki> i hope you dont call your pool diablopool

2595 2011-05-23 17:26:26 <lfm> oh ok
2596 2011-05-23 17:26:28 <diki> so soon in USA there will be data caps?

2598 2011-05-23 17:26:37 <BlueMatt> no libupnp is a different library
2599 2011-05-23 17:26:39 <BlueMatt> its miniupnpc

2602 2011-05-23 17:27:54 <meLon> Hmmm, I am unable to find any libminiupnp*. I have checked to make sure the make install ran, and it did
2603 2011-05-23 17:28:17 <BlueMatt> did you install libupnp instead of miniupc?

2614 2011-05-23 17:30:09 <BlueMatt> lol, just messing
2615 2011-05-23 17:30:24 <BlueMatt> you want miniupnpc-1.5.tar.gz
2616 2011-05-23 17:31:56 <jaromil> hi bluematt
2617 2011-05-23 17:32:07 <jaromil> miniupnp is a problem in ubuntu there is no package...
2618 2011-05-23 17:32:07 <meLon> Progress :D. src/db.cpp:811: undefined reference to `fUseUPnP' | src/serialize.h:136: undefined reference to `fUseUPnP'
2619 2011-05-23 17:32:23 <jaromil> for my builds i've solved it including it static in the source...
2620 2011-05-23 17:32:40 <BlueMatt> meLon: you need to make clean
2621 2011-05-23 17:32:41 <jaromil> just mentioning in case more people is interested in that approach i have it ready
2622 2011-05-23 17:32:51 <BlueMatt> jaromil: why would you do that?
2623 2011-05-23 17:33:04 <BlueMatt> just download and install it
2624 2011-05-23 17:33:28 <jaromil> to automatize package creation and have it easy built on more platforms...
2625 2011-05-23 17:33:43 <jaromil> i find it very handy, also less cruft around
2626 2011-05-23 17:33:55 <BlueMatt> just write a simple script to download and build it
2627 2011-05-23 17:34:04 <BlueMatt> gitian does it already...really not that hard
2628 2011-05-23 17:34:10 <jaromil> also miniupnp has api changes and they are sloppy
2629 2011-05-23 17:34:22 <BlueMatt> so use the 1.5 version and not the random daily builds
2630 2011-05-23 17:34:25 <jaromil> one recent gave me an hour of hitch
2631 2011-05-23 17:34:48 FabianB has joined
2632 2011-05-23 17:34:52 <BlueMatt> build-unix.txt pretty clearly says 1.5 not 1.5.DAILY
2633 2011-05-23 17:35:04 <jaromil> well, i'm an autotools junkie :) and always preferred to include source that is not stable and everywhere
2634 2011-05-23 17:35:16 <BlueMatt> and yet miniupnp is
2635 2011-05-23 17:35:21 <lfm> bluematt build-unix.txt is only usefull for people who can read
2636 2011-05-23 17:35:36 <meLon> This make clean is taking longer than the make, BlueMatt :P
2637 2011-05-23 17:35:37 <BlueMatt> lfm: and I dont support those who cant ;P
2638 2011-05-23 17:35:43 <BlueMatt> meLon: wtf?
2639 2011-05-23 17:35:55 <BlueMatt> make clean just removes obj/* and cryptopp/obj/*
2640 2011-05-23 17:36:03 <BlueMatt> how can rm -rf take long?
2641 2011-05-23 17:36:11 <meLon> It compiled it too, actually BlueMatt
2642 2011-05-23 17:36:18 <BlueMatt> huh?
2643 2011-05-23 17:36:25 <BlueMatt> so you called make clean bitcoin then?
2644 2011-05-23 17:36:26 <lfm> meLon: huh?
2645 2011-05-23 17:36:32 <meLon> make clean -f makefile.unix bitcoind
2646 2011-05-23 17:36:33 slush has joined
2647 2011-05-23 17:36:38 <meLon> I ran that, it rm -f some files
2648 2011-05-23 17:36:41 <lfm> oh! ya
2649 2011-05-23 17:36:41 <meLon> Then it compiled it
2650 2011-05-23 17:36:41 <luke-jr> this is why we need autoconf!
2651 2011-05-23 17:37:04 <BlueMatt> yea make -f makefile.unix clean cleans then bitcoind builds bitcoind
2652 2011-05-23 17:37:04 <meLon> make -f makefile.unix bitcoind > make: `bitcoind' is up to date.
2653 2011-05-23 17:37:10 <jaromil> i can even see more reasons :)
2654 2011-05-23 17:37:11 <BlueMatt> you didnt clea
2655 2011-05-23 17:37:12 <BlueMatt> n
2656 2011-05-23 17:37:22 <meLon> make clean would not run
2657 2011-05-23 17:37:24 <lfm> meLon: relace bitcoind with clean, dont add clean
2658 2011-05-23 17:37:34 <Diablo-D3> you can make clean bitcoind though
2659 2011-05-23 17:37:34 <BlueMatt> meLon: because you specified it before the file
2660 2011-05-23 17:37:36 <meLon> ohhh, i see
2661 2011-05-23 17:37:38 <Diablo-D3> at least, you're supposed to be able to
2662 2011-05-23 17:37:41 <BlueMatt> so it didnt know which makefile

2668 2011-05-23 17:38:11 <BlueMatt> no, I dont argue we dont need autotools, I just dont see why so many people have so many problems
2669 2011-05-23 17:38:13 <meLon> Thanks for being patient with me <3

2697 2011-05-23 17:45:11 <mtrlt> well yeah. if the pool grows bigger, upping the diff might be good
2698 2011-05-23 17:45:11 <diki> i actually have two choices
2699 2011-05-23 17:45:17 <diki> either diff 1 or the true diff
2700 2011-05-23 17:45:27 <mtrlt> lol why would you use the true diff
2701 2011-05-23 17:45:37 <mtrlt> that kinda defeats the purpose of a pool
2702 2011-05-23 17:45:48 <diki> because pushpoold stores block from the diff you specify
2703 2011-05-23 17:45:53 <BlueMatt> really defats the purpose
2704 2011-05-23 17:45:54 <diki> and those blocks are not real for me
2705 2011-05-23 17:46:03 <mtrlt> BlueMatt: yes. totally.
2706 2011-05-23 17:46:26 <lfm> diki diff 1 then
2707 2011-05-23 17:47:42 <lfm> diki if you get too much traffic try to make it diff 10 or something
2708 2011-05-23 17:48:00 <diki> that would require recompiling
2709 2011-05-23 17:48:05 <lfm> ya
2710 2011-05-23 17:48:20 <diki> this is a share, right?
2711 2011-05-23 17:48:23 <diki> in it's raw form http://pastebin.com/Hx5AyaYp
2712 2011-05-23 17:48:29 <diki> unsolved i mean
2713 2011-05-23 17:48:49 <lfm> diki ya it specifies what qualifies for a share
2714 2011-05-23 17:49:23 <diki> I've figured out some stuff, however i haven't understood yet how to: When the pool finds a block to insert it into a blocks table i make
2715 2011-05-23 17:49:47 <diki> since pushpoold, when it's found a block at easy target it still marks it as valid
2716 2011-05-23 17:50:16 <diki> My point is i don't know how to make it so i also get the block number the pool solved
2717 2011-05-23 17:50:33 <diki> and block hash to link it to blockexplorer
2718 2011-05-23 17:51:03 <lfm> blockexplorer will look up block numbers
2719 2011-05-23 17:51:27 <lfm> you dont need a hash
2720 2011-05-23 17:51:37 <diki> then how do i display a link to it?
2721 2011-05-23 17:51:45 <diki> just like deepbit

2723 2011-05-23 17:52:57 <diki> Look at this example:pool finds block, but i have no idea which block # it is
2724 2011-05-23 17:53:00 <lfm> http://blockexplorer.com/b/120000
2725 2011-05-23 17:53:08 <lfm> where 120000 is the block number
2726 2011-05-23 17:53:23 <diki> and how do i find out the block number?
2727 2011-05-23 17:54:27 <lfm> I guess you're on your own for that
2728 2011-05-23 17:55:30 <diki> this is why software needs to have documentation
2729 2011-05-23 17:56:05 <lfm> what? you figured that out all on your own?!
2730 2011-05-23 17:56:13 <diki> huh?
2731 2011-05-23 17:57:22 <lfm> please excuse sarcasm
2732 2011-05-23 17:57:54 <Dekbit> no one involved in btc believes in documentation! blasphemy!
2733 2011-05-23 17:58:29 <BlueMatt> lol docs, you need to read the src to figure out how to use it
2734 2011-05-23 17:58:33 <BlueMatt> why would you do it any other way
2735 2011-05-23 17:59:20 <diki> cause it's the right way? I am not obligated to read the code even if it's open source
2736 2011-05-23 17:59:35 <diki> more so if i dont understand C/C++
2737 2011-05-23 17:59:45 <diki> especially if i dont know C/C++
2738 2011-05-23 18:00:23 <lfm> bitcoin is a plot to force people to learn c/c++
2739 2011-05-23 18:00:27 <BlueMatt> bullshit, you should always read the entire src...I know everything about kernel/X11/gnome/everything
2740 2011-05-23 18:00:39 <Dekbit> lol just cause you read the source doesnt make it good coding practice to not document
2741 2011-05-23 18:00:42 <Dekbit> that is just silly
2742 2011-05-23 18:01:04 <BlueMatt> yep, sadly no one has time to do that...
2743 2011-05-23 18:01:10 <lfm> oh you think we are being silly? well you're right!
2744 2011-05-23 18:01:46 <BlueMatt> ...no
2745 2011-05-23 18:02:08 <BlueMatt> us, silly? never
2746 2011-05-23 18:02:29 <lfm> no one expects the spanish inquisition!
2747 2011-05-23 18:02:39 <Dekbit> documenting your code actually saves time; just costs a little bit up front (and a lot of pain from people who dont like to do it)
2748 2011-05-23 18:03:09 <Dekbit> If you dont think you have time that is like not using object oriented design philosophies 'because it takes to long'. your shooting yourself in the foot

2753 2011-05-23 18:04:30 <BlueMatt> great, satoshi didnt
2754 2011-05-23 18:04:39 <BlueMatt> so go comment it for us...
2755 2011-05-23 18:04:42 <Dekbit> and apparently you support that decision. Real tough stance your taking
2756 2011-05-23 18:04:47 <Dekbit> way to dismiss a valid argument
2757 2011-05-23 18:04:50 <BlueMatt> seriously, that sounds all noble and whatnot but irl...
2758 2011-05-23 18:05:02 <erbs> lol nanotube is a dipshit
2759 2011-05-23 18:05:08 <BlueMatt> look, I wish the code was commented I do
2760 2011-05-23 18:05:11 <erbs> apparently hes banned all discussion of mtgox on -pit
2761 2011-05-23 18:05:13 <BlueMatt> and I agree its better to do that
2762 2011-05-23 18:05:22 <BlueMatt> erbs: that is the whole point of -pit
2763 2011-05-23 18:05:27 <nanotube> lol erbs is about to be kicked from -dev too
2764 2011-05-23 18:05:28 <BlueMatt> that is why it was founded
2765 2011-05-23 18:05:44 <erbs> exactly BlueMatt. that dispshit obviously doesnt know what a trading pit is
2766 2011-05-23 18:05:46 <BlueMatt> but satoshi didnt comment bitcoin and no one has the time to go back and do it

2776 2011-05-23 18:07:14 <Dekbit> Ok i understand what your saying completely. But spending the time to learn the entire code base just to add comments is ridiculous, someone needs to do it who already has that working knowledge. Then it would be done for other people to be able to enter more easily and help those "overworked" devs
2777 2011-05-23 18:07:21 <BlueMatt> ok, I suppose my point was this discussion is done
2778 2011-05-23 18:07:47 <BlueMatt> Dekbit: yep good point, but again no existing devs have time...
2779 2011-05-23 18:07:58 <BlueMatt> and frankly, its not _that_ hard to figure out
2780 2011-05-23 18:07:59 <Dekbit> system is locked into failure then
2781 2011-05-23 18:08:12 <Dekbit> will just get harder to do with time as code base grows but thats all i will say
2782 2011-05-23 18:08:19 <BlueMatt> if you are going to invest the time to add some feature or change something, you can easily figure it out
2783 2011-05-23 18:08:33 <Dekbit> Sure I am just an advocate of always commenting the first time around
2784 2011-05-23 18:08:41 <BlueMatt> no I agree there
2785 2011-05-23 18:08:44 <Dekbit> obviously its too late for that here in a lot of ways
2786 2011-05-23 18:08:47 <BlueMatt> but that is not where we are anymore

2792 2011-05-23 18:11:09 <lfm> we should hunt down Satoshi and lock him in a room till he writes the missing docs
2793 2011-05-23 18:11:20 <Dekbit> its a vicious cycle. But i am more interested in the elements currently being coded actively such as the pools being released, etc
2794 2011-05-23 18:11:41 <Dekbit> I understand where bluematt is coming from cant help what satoshi did what you suggest lfm is about the only way

2796 2011-05-23 18:12:45 <lfm> pools are a distraction as I understand bitcoin. they are born of gambler's falacy and perpetuated by pool admins they prey on people who dont know what gambler's falacies are.

2798 2011-05-23 18:13:00 <Dekbit> actually pools fix a flaw in bitcoins original design
2799 2011-05-23 18:13:11 <Dekbit> but the fact they are run privately is exactly as you describe

2801 2011-05-23 18:13:35 <Dekbit> bitcoin could just pay out like a pool currently does to all participants and spread wealth more widely without a fee
2802 2011-05-23 18:13:55 <lfm> the flaw being Satoshi didnt expect so many people would fall for gambler's falacies
2803 2011-05-23 18:14:05 <Dekbit> yes and didnt see the rise of GPU

2807 2011-05-23 18:15:56 <Dekbit> no but people participaiting with tiny fractions of total network hashing speed have virtually no chance of a payout. That forces them to pool (even if taking a cut) just to get something out of the effort they expend mining
2808 2011-05-23 18:16:21 <Dekbit> so why not incentivize those people directly
2809 2011-05-23 18:16:25 <lfm> nothing forces them to pool but their own delusions
2810 2011-05-23 18:16:31 <Dekbit> with tiny fractions of the generated payout equal to their relative worth to the network

2818 2011-05-23 18:19:12 <lfm> every single hash has the same chance of geting a block
2819 2011-05-23 18:19:14 <BlueMatt> meLon: technically, yes...though 10-20 years is likely for 50 btc
2820 2011-05-23 18:19:33 <BlueMatt> and thousands in power costs
2821 2011-05-23 18:20:15 <meLon> This bitcoind 'client' only uses CPU, correct?
2822 2011-05-23 18:20:19 <Dekbit> My point is someone like meLon isnt going to mine for 10 years for a 50 btc payout. But he might be more interested to mine for 5 weeks for .96btc
2823 2011-05-23 18:20:29 <Dekbit> that is what leads to pooling
2824 2011-05-23 18:21:04 <meLon> naw, I'm just tired of wasting my CPU/GPU's on SETI and F@H, especially since i found out SETI wont release any information until the gov't says it's okay :P

3198 2011-05-23 19:44:01 <Sage__> but dunno whether the mining still will be profitable to obtain cool rigs
3199 2011-05-23 19:44:05 <vegard> BlueMatt: if it persists, you could make a channel redirect to some channel, stay there, and give people (who are not this spammer) invites to here

3210 2011-05-23 19:45:39 <Sage__> does your 6990 cards get much hotter than gpus itself?

3271 2011-05-23 20:01:34 <DrewSJ> Windows preferred but willing to do linux
3272 2011-05-23 20:01:42 <DrewSJ> I'm a linux noob though. I couldnt get a single 6990 to work
3273 2011-05-23 20:01:44 <sipa> windows doesn't support more than 4 GPU's iirc
3274 2011-05-23 20:01:48 <DrewSJ> couldnt get the miner to recognize the GPUs

3276 2011-05-23 20:01:54 <mtrlt> and the power connectors melt
3277 2011-05-23 20:01:57 <mtrlt> with 3x6990
3278 2011-05-23 20:02:05 <ArtForzZy> yep
3279 2011-05-23 20:02:07 <DrewSJ> melt?
3280 2011-05-23 20:02:12 <DrewSJ> because of the fan heat?
3281 2011-05-23 20:02:13 <mtrlt> yes, too much current
3282 2011-05-23 20:02:15 <DrewSJ> or because of the power useage?
3283 2011-05-23 20:02:19 <mtrlt> 75W per card but the limit is 150W
3284 2011-05-23 20:02:26 <ArtForzZy> either need spliced risers or upgraded ATX 12V pins
3285 2011-05-23 20:02:27 <mtrlt> -> meltage
3286 2011-05-23 20:02:38 <Sage__> anyway, can you use the gpu for other profiting uses than bitcoin?

3289 2011-05-23 20:03:00 <DrewSJ> :-D
3290 2011-05-23 20:03:25 <mtrlt> if you go ahead, do what ArtForzZy said
3291 2011-05-23 20:03:27 <DrewSJ> I read on the forums that you can get more than 4 GPUs to work on win 7
3292 2011-05-23 20:03:32 <mtrlt> or suffer the consequence
3293 2011-05-23 20:03:33 <mtrlt> s

3296 2011-05-23 20:04:30 <phantomcircuit> Sage__, yes you can sell them to people who do crazy things like render millions of triangles with them

3318 2011-05-23 20:06:58 <gmaxwell> diki: 80a at 12 volts is about a kw.

3320 2011-05-23 20:07:00 <DrewSJ> I guess I'll build another machine rather than run three in one
3321 2011-05-23 20:07:33 <ArtForzZy> either that 5850 is on fire or you're mixing things up....

3343 2011-05-23 20:09:19 <gjs278> that's not possible
3344 2011-05-23 20:09:19 <mtrlt> DrewSJ: just run two boxes :p
3345 2011-05-23 20:09:21 <gmaxwell> The slot is only rated for a few amps top.
3346 2011-05-23 20:09:21 <ArtForzZy> plenty gamer boards have additional 5.25" molex or 6-pin PCIe connectors nobard to supply more 12V to the PCIe slots
3347 2011-05-23 20:09:21 <diki> without load it's 5-6

3352 2011-05-23 20:09:54 <ArtForzZy> MSI really fucked up with the 790FX-GD70 and 890FXA-GD70 in that regard
3353 2011-05-23 20:09:55 <diki> yep
3354 2011-05-23 20:09:56 <gmaxwell> at the 12v pins it's about, say 7.5.
3355 2011-05-23 20:10:13 <diki> MSI have more blown VRMs than any other manufacterer
3356 2011-05-23 20:10:27 <ArtForzZy> diki: wtf are you talking about?
3357 2011-05-23 20:10:40 <gmaxwell> diki = random comment generator?
3358 2011-05-23 20:10:46 <DrewSJ> So you're saying the motherboard can't supply enough power to the cards
3359 2011-05-23 20:10:53 <ArtForzZy> yep
3360 2011-05-23 20:10:54 <gmaxwell> "diki" does sound a lot like "zippy"â¦
3361 2011-05-23 20:11:01 <DrewSJ> never thought that would be the problem since the cards have their own power connectors
3362 2011-05-23 20:11:06 <ArtForzZy> hey, zippy makes good PSUs!

3364 2011-05-23 20:11:21 <gmaxwell> DrewSJ: you can make a hacked up extender that provides external power.
3365 2011-05-23 20:11:29 <diki> My VRM current according to Aida64 is 80 amps under load
3366 2011-05-23 20:11:31 <ArtForzZy> yep, or just buy one or two
3367 2011-05-23 20:11:32 <gmaxwell> DrewSJ: yea, they still use the MB power. "cause they can"
3368 2011-05-23 20:11:45 <mtrlt> diki: yes we got that.
3369 2011-05-23 20:11:56 <diki> do you think that is abnormal?
3370 2011-05-23 20:11:59 <mtrlt> diki: you are talking about 1.08V , we are talking about 12V
3371 2011-05-23 20:12:08 <ArtForzZy> gmaxwell: also, because 2 8-pin and a 6-pin or 3*8pin on a 6990 would look kinda weird
3372 2011-05-23 20:12:22 <ArtForzZy> which is what would be needed without slot power
3373 2011-05-23 20:12:24 Sage__ has quit (Quit: Page closed)
3374 2011-05-23 20:12:30 <ArtForzZy> though 8-pins are actually overspecced as hell
3375 2011-05-23 20:12:40 <gmaxwell> "It's the RINSE CYCLE!! They've ALL IGNORED the RINSE CYCLE!!"
3376 2011-05-23 20:12:47 <ArtForzZy> you can pull up to 450W or so on a 8-pin without exceeding wire or pin ratings
3377 2011-05-23 20:13:01 <mtrlt> a single 8-pin?
3378 2011-05-23 20:13:03 <DrewSJ> so
3379 2011-05-23 20:13:05 <ArtForzZy> yep

3385 2011-05-23 20:13:10 <mtrlt> lol
3386 2011-05-23 20:13:17 <DrewSJ> thats half the power it would need?
3387 2011-05-23 20:13:18 <ArtForzZy> 8-pin has 3 12V/GND pairs
3388 2011-05-23 20:13:35 <ArtForzZy> connector pins/receptables are rated for 13A per pin
3389 2011-05-23 20:13:39 <ArtForzZy> = 39A
3390 2011-05-23 20:13:40 <DrewSJ> wait
3391 2011-05-23 20:13:44 <DrewSJ> that shit is not the board I'm using
3392 2011-05-23 20:13:45 <DrewSJ> my bad
3393 2011-05-23 20:14:09 <ArtForzZy> and even 18AWG in a tight bundle can handle 13A all day long
3394 2011-05-23 20:14:10 <jrmithdobbs> still probably the anser

3397 2011-05-23 20:14:22 <DrewSJ> that's the board
3398 2011-05-23 20:14:27 <DrewSJ> it has an 8 pin connector
3399 2011-05-23 20:14:28 mmoya has quit (Ping timeout: 248 seconds)
3400 2011-05-23 20:14:43 <DrewSJ> In the picture, it looks like 4
3401 2011-05-23 20:14:45 <DrewSJ> but its 8
3402 2011-05-23 20:14:47 <DrewSJ> it has a plug
3403 2011-05-23 20:14:49 <ArtForzZy> argh
3404 2011-05-23 20:15:01 <ArtForzZy> I hate the "spot the black connector on the black board" game
3405 2011-05-23 20:15:20 <DrewSJ> indeed
3406 2011-05-23 20:15:37 <mtrlt> why are they color-coded like that anyway o_O
3407 2011-05-23 20:15:39 <DrewSJ> well you can see half od it
3408 2011-05-23 20:15:48 <DrewSJ> because half of it is not plugged
3409 2011-05-23 20:15:49 <DrewSJ> so its white
3410 2011-05-23 20:16:00 <ArtForzZy> nope, thats probably CPU only
3411 2011-05-23 20:16:19 <ArtForzZy> easy enough to check with a continuity tester
3412 2011-05-23 20:16:20 <DrewSJ> 8 pin connector for CPU only??
3413 2011-05-23 20:16:24 <ArtForzZy> yea
3414 2011-05-23 20:16:29 <DrewSJ> what the du ma
3415 2011-05-23 20:16:36 <ArtForzZy> at least ona ll other boards I've cehcked so far that was the case
3416 2011-05-23 20:16:46 <DrewSJ> oh yeah
3417 2011-05-23 20:16:51 <mtrlt> yep, new standard or something
3418 2011-05-23 20:16:53 <DrewSJ> never though of it before
3419 2011-05-23 20:16:56 <ArtForzZy> 4/8pin ATX12V/EPS12V is CPU only
3420 2011-05-23 20:16:58 <DrewSJ> since the big cable is the mobo cable
3421 2011-05-23 20:17:01 <DrewSJ> yeah
3422 2011-05-23 20:17:05 <DrewSJ> stupid me
3423 2011-05-23 20:17:10 <DrewSJ> alright then
3424 2011-05-23 20:17:17 <ArtForzZy> I just wondered why mobo mfgs lost the additional connectors
3425 2011-05-23 20:17:38 <ArtForzZy> even my stone-age A8N-E had a additional 5.25" molex for PCIe +12V power
3426 2011-05-23 20:18:13 <gjs278> how did you even power your machine without connecting that 8 pin
3427 2011-05-23 20:18:22 <jrmithdobbs> ArtForzZy: solution: just don't plug anything in that'll draw power off the board except pcie cards and cpu ;P
3428 2011-05-23 20:18:48 <Ramen> ram?
3429 2011-05-23 20:18:49 <ArtForzZy> jrmithdobbs: and the PCIe cards alone will happily melt the 12V pins on the 24pin...
3430 2011-05-23 20:19:09 <ArtForzZy> especially with 4*5970 or 4*6990
3431 2011-05-23 20:19:31 <jrmithdobbs> i've not tried quite that dense
3432 2011-05-23 20:19:33 <ArtForzZy> > 24A over 2 pins rated for 6A each = whats that funny smell
3433 2011-05-23 20:19:47 <DrewSJ> well I can see that with 4*6990
3434 2011-05-23 20:19:50 <jrmithdobbs> ya that could be a problem ;P
3435 2011-05-23 20:19:54 <DrewSJ> but do you really think it would happen with 3?
3436 2011-05-23 20:19:58 <ArtForzZy> yes
3437 2011-05-23 20:19:58 <DrewSJ> I just want 3 :)
3438 2011-05-23 20:20:00 <DrewSJ> dman it
3439 2011-05-23 20:20:13 <phantomcircuit> ArtForzZy, 4*6990 is what 2kW?
3440 2011-05-23 20:20:17 <ArtForzZy> didnt soemone melt the 24pin with 3*5970?
3441 2011-05-23 20:20:24 <gjs278> that is most definitely not 2kw
3442 2011-05-23 20:20:29 <gjs278> it cant be
3443 2011-05-23 20:20:33 <gjs278> no one has that powerlevel
3444 2011-05-23 20:20:41 <ArtForzZy> 4*6990 is about 1.5-1.8kW
3445 2011-05-23 20:20:42 <DrewSJ> 2*PSUs
3446 2011-05-23 20:20:45 <ArtForzZy> yep
3447 2011-05-23 20:20:49 <phantomcircuit> ArtForzZy, lol
3448 2011-05-23 20:20:51 <phantomcircuit> insanity
3449 2011-05-23 20:20:53 <ArtForzZy> 2*1kW is pretty much required
3450 2011-05-23 20:21:11 <ArtForzZy> 4 overvolted 5970s arent much less ;)

3454 2011-05-23 20:23:31 <phantomcircuit> ArtForzZy, the reference 5870's have the fan in the middle right?
3455 2011-05-23 20:23:34 <jrmithdobbs> any mini-atx ones?

3460 2011-05-23 20:24:00 <DrewSJ> so cute
3461 2011-05-23 20:24:12 <phantomcircuit> ArtForzZy, at the end?
3462 2011-05-23 20:24:21 <jrmithdobbs> DrewSJ: leaves room for mounting cards in inappropriate ways.
3463 2011-05-23 20:24:23 <ArtForzZy> ref 5870s have the blower toward the ass-end, basically looks like shortened 5970s
3464 2011-05-23 20:24:26 <jrmithdobbs> DrewSJ: ;P
3465 2011-05-23 20:24:31 <gjs278> back end cooler is great
3466 2011-05-23 20:24:42 <phantomcircuit> so like a HD587AZNF9 is a reference board?
3467 2011-05-23 20:25:03 <ArtForzZy> kinda hard to tell with XFX
3468 2011-05-23 20:25:13 <ArtForzZy> they *love* making nonref boards that look like ref at first glance

3493 2011-05-23 20:29:16 <jrmithdobbs> then the people selling them caught on
3494 2011-05-23 20:29:19 <ArtForzZy> back then you could get shittons of 5970 for $499 new
3495 2011-05-23 20:29:24 <karnac> i found some 5870's on pricewatch for 253, ordered 2
3496 2011-05-23 20:29:38 <ArtForzZy> I picked up most of my 5970s back then for 480 new
3497 2011-05-23 20:29:38 <gjs278> 5870s were $190 at one point

3521 2011-05-23 20:35:54 <cosurgi> so why do you want to sell them ?
3522 2011-05-23 20:36:21 <DrewSJ> They actually belong to my boss. He would rather use 6990s
3523 2011-05-23 20:36:31 <DrewSJ> we have two more 6990s on the way
3524 2011-05-23 20:36:42 <erbs> satoshi@ati.amd.com ?
3525 2011-05-23 20:36:44 <DrewSJ> the 5850s are sitting in static bags not doing anything right now

3550 2011-05-23 20:48:56 <luke-jr> ie, before day, not all day
3551 2011-05-23 20:49:05 <luke-jr> and not even 100%
3552 2011-05-23 20:49:07 <luke-jr> only 50%
3553 2011-05-23 20:49:23 <phantomcircuit> you have 2 servers?
3554 2011-05-23 20:49:27 <luke-jr> US and Europe
3555 2011-05-23 20:49:29 <phantomcircuit> also what was wrong :P
3556 2011-05-23 20:49:34 <luke-jr> bitcoind died.
3557 2011-05-23 20:49:44 <phantomcircuit> ah
3558 2011-05-23 20:49:52 <phantomcircuit> you need a script to restart it hehe

3562 2011-05-23 20:50:20 <gjs278> did the process die, or did it not accept connections anymore

3571 2011-05-23 20:51:38 <luke-jr> pwrcycle: what daemon?
3572 2011-05-23 20:51:47 <gjs278> http://www.garyshood.com/bitcoin/monitrc you can use this config to restart it checks for the port and the actual pid

3574 2011-05-23 20:52:18 <gjs278> yeah

3592 2011-05-23 20:55:20 <Carandiru> hey I have a few questions about bitcoin and listening to transactions
3593 2011-05-23 20:55:30 <diki> pwrcycle you are not alone
3594 2011-05-23 20:55:44 <diki> i've been asking this question for few days now
3595 2011-05-23 20:56:22 <erbs> luke-jr denied the pool was down then admitted it
3596 2011-05-23 20:56:24 <jrmithdobbs> seriously, if you can't figure this stuff out you shouldn't be runninga pool anyways
3597 2011-05-23 20:56:41 <luke-jr> jrmithdobbs++
3598 2011-05-23 20:56:45 <diki> i learn through experience lol
3599 2011-05-23 20:56:53 <diki> did you think luke knew it?
3600 2011-05-23 20:56:57 <diki> He prolly asked more than i do
3601 2011-05-23 20:57:04 <luke-jr> it's called trial and error
3602 2011-05-23 20:57:11 <Carandiru> I've tried looking at he bitcoin source at http://yyz.us/bitcoin/poold.py
3603 2011-05-23 20:57:19 <diki> and for me it's called going the easy wat
3604 2011-05-23 20:57:21 <diki> *way
3605 2011-05-23 20:57:23 Enchilada has left ()

3608 2011-05-23 20:57:33 <Carandiru> is that all thats really necessary to find transactions and distribute them among connected peers
3609 2011-05-23 20:57:36 <jgarzik> Carandiru: the bitcoin source is at https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin
3610 2011-05-23 20:57:47 <luke-jr> Carandiru: that code doesn't do anything with transactions period
3611 2011-05-23 20:57:47 <jgarzik> Carandiru: you are looking at an HTTP proxy
3612 2011-05-23 20:58:19 <Carandiru> ahh
3613 2011-05-23 20:58:30 <Carandiru> You see I don't think a pool needs a server
3614 2011-05-23 20:58:50 <jrmithdobbs> what
3615 2011-05-23 20:58:57 <Carandiru> or a database for that matter
3616 2011-05-23 20:58:57 <jgarzik> Carandiru: you need to read more about bitcoin basics
3617 2011-05-23 20:59:05 <diki> Look, luke, you could've helped me a lot of times you know
3618 2011-05-23 20:59:29 <jrmithdobbs> diki: ask specific questions that aren't easy to find and luke is pretty responsive
3619 2011-05-23 20:59:38 <jrmithdobbs> ask stupid questions over and over and not so much
3620 2011-05-23 20:59:40 <diki> Oh i asked...he doesnt answer at all
3621 2011-05-23 21:00:05 <diki> i really mean at all
3622 2011-05-23 21:00:09 <Carandiru> If I wanted to make a pool, it would be a cloud, where everyone is a server and a client and the cloud has persistent data available to all client/servers with RakNet
3623 2011-05-23 21:00:19 <jrmithdobbs> diki: then how come i know exactly how he does his generate->sendtomany conversion and have figured out how to use it and you don't?
3624 2011-05-23 21:00:23 <jrmithdobbs> just sayin.
3625 2011-05-23 21:00:42 <diki> generate->sendtomany<- and this is??
3626 2011-05-23 21:00:44 <Carandiru> no central database nor central server for collecting and distributing work, everyone grabs work and propogates it thru the cloud
3627 2011-05-23 21:00:50 <jrmithdobbs> diki: point in case
3628 2011-05-23 21:00:54 <jrmithdobbs> diki: case in point
3629 2011-05-23 21:00:56 <jrmithdobbs> w/e
3630 2011-05-23 21:01:06 <diki> you are not making any sense...
3631 2011-05-23 21:01:12 <luke-jr> LOL
3632 2011-05-23 21:01:23 <sipa> Carandiru: http://forum.bitcoin.org/index.php?topic=3461.0
3633 2011-05-23 21:01:24 <erbs> luke-jr = fountain of misdirection / doubletalk
3634 2011-05-23 21:01:31 <erbs> j/k luke-jr you're a cool guy
3635 2011-05-23 21:01:40 <lfm> Carandiru: and this sounds like it would end up looking exactly like bitcoin itself, ie already been done
3636 2011-05-23 21:02:02 <Carandiru> yes but Im talking about the bitcoind server
3637 2011-05-23 21:02:06 <Carandiru> not bitcoin itself
3638 2011-05-23 21:02:13 <Carandiru> for pools specifically
3639 2011-05-23 21:02:14 <sipa> bitcoind == bitcoin itself
3640 2011-05-23 21:02:17 <sipa> but read my link
3641 2011-05-23 21:02:21 <lfm> I mean bitcoin the net
3642 2011-05-23 21:02:41 <Carandiru> kk
3643 2011-05-23 21:03:09 <diki> Actually, i do have a semi-working idea of getting the block number, but by the time i fetch it, by some bad luck, another block could be generated thus i fetch the wrong block number
3644 2011-05-23 21:03:09 <lfm> bitcoin the network IS a pool, pays out lottery style
3645 2011-05-23 21:03:31 <jrmithdobbs> heh
3646 2011-05-23 21:03:31 <diki> I also can't seem to find the block hash as well..
3647 2011-05-23 21:03:42 <jgarzik> erbs: you're the nutter who spammed nanotube personal details all over IRC?
3648 2011-05-23 21:03:53 <jrmithdobbs> lfm: i wonder how hard it'd be to use a simple blockchain to run a distributed pool using bitcoind itself
3649 2011-05-23 21:04:00 <luke-jr> sipa: I like it, but it's not for Eligius :P
3650 2011-05-23 21:04:07 <erbs> which pool is ArtForzZy?
3651 2011-05-23 21:04:09 <erbs> no jgarzik
3652 2011-05-23 21:04:32 <diki> Ah sipa, do you have an idea of fetching the block number on solve time and also fetching the block hash itself?
3653 2011-05-23 21:04:38 <Carandiru> hrmm, no these hashing pools are basically just collecting how much work each miner that subscribes to the pool eg btcguild
3654 2011-05-23 21:04:44 <luke-jr> sipa: although, Eligius might participate in it I suppose
3655 2011-05-23 21:04:46 <Carandiru> *so
3656 2011-05-23 21:04:47 <jrmithdobbs> lfm: eg, "blocks" are the proof of work, your miners connect to your bitcoind which -addnode='s the alt p2p network and it uses bitcoin itself to keep the pool honest
3657 2011-05-23 21:04:47 <jgarzik> erbs: that would be a 'yes', you mean
3658 2011-05-23 21:04:50 <jrmithdobbs> lol
3659 2011-05-23 21:04:51 <meLon> jgarzik, BlueMatt hooked me up with minderd. Thanks :D
3660 2011-05-23 21:04:57 <sipa> luke-jr: i have no intention for implementing it

3664 2011-05-23 21:05:18 <lfm> jrmithdobbs: thats like asking if the 50 btc rewards could be split and spread out as 1 btc reward much more often. it doesnt work due to too much traffic
3665 2011-05-23 21:05:18 Kiba has quit (Remote host closed the connection)
3666 2011-05-23 21:05:39 <sipa> jgarzik: the spammer did have a different hostmask than erbs
3667 2011-05-23 21:05:45 <jrmithdobbs> lfm: no i think you misunderstand
3668 2011-05-23 21:05:46 <tasha3> only on current networks...
3669 2011-05-23 21:05:53 <luke-jr> jgarzik: he did the same to me once
3670 2011-05-23 21:05:59 <luke-jr> jgarzik: because I wouldn't give him $
3671 2011-05-23 21:06:03 <Carandiru> the miners them selves actually get the work, no thru the pool setup by btcguild, then submits how much work the miner has done so the btcguild pool can then add them all up to calculate the amount of shares ?
3672 2011-05-23 21:06:17 <jrmithdobbs> lfm: use an alt p2p network/blockchain for the "pool" and once the "pool" finds a "real" block it gets sent to the actual bitcoin p2p/blockchain
3673 2011-05-23 21:06:28 <jrmithdobbs> lfm: instead of a central proxy server for the pool
3674 2011-05-23 21:06:35 <sipa> jrmithdobbs: read my link
3675 2011-05-23 21:06:41 <Carandiru> I thought it was the other way around, the pool btcguild grabs the work then distributes to to all the miners connected to the pool
3676 2011-05-23 21:06:45 <jgarzik> sipa: he appears almost immediately after erbs was kban'd, complaining about being banned :)
3677 2011-05-23 21:06:52 <lfm> jrmithdobbs: yes, too much trafic on the alt pool
3678 2011-05-23 21:06:53 <Carandiru> but its not like that right ?
3679 2011-05-23 21:06:54 <nanotube> jgarzik: yes he is
3680 2011-05-23 21:07:05 <jgarzik> sipa: you'd need a different hostmask to make such complaints, being kban'd and all :)
3681 2011-05-23 21:07:23 <sipa> jgarzik: ok, i wasn't following
3682 2011-05-23 21:07:27 <jrmithdobbs> lfm: meh, too much traffic isn't an issue for me (or most people that'd be interested in it)
3683 2011-05-23 21:07:35 <jrmithdobbs> sipa: oh, lol, that's basically what they're proposing
3684 2011-05-23 21:07:45 <lfm> jrmithdobbs: ok then go ahead
3685 2011-05-23 21:07:46 <luke-jr> lfm: the p2p system could automatically distribute among different sets of members
3686 2011-05-23 21:07:59 <luke-jr> lfm: each peer could define a max pool size
3687 2011-05-23 21:08:09 <luke-jr> but yeah, that also means slower earnings
3688 2011-05-23 21:08:15 <luke-jr> guess Eligius wins
3689 2011-05-23 21:08:16 <luke-jr> :p

3711 2011-05-23 21:10:48 <erbs> sipa - coolidea.. im not too up on the details, but how do you prevent 1 miner from submitting multiple shares under 2 names (so his "hardest" share is multiplied by 2)
3712 2011-05-23 21:10:54 <jrmithdobbs> luke-jr: and if you're going solo no need to add the payout tracking/logic and web ui ;P
3713 2011-05-23 21:11:11 <erbs> lets say he finds 3 diff-16's.. could he just submit that under 3 user names

3717 2011-05-23 21:11:55 <erbs> normally he would just submit 1 diff-16 right.. but could he pretend to be 3 miners, each with their own diff-16
3718 2011-05-23 21:12:03 <TD> sipa: it's a good patch, but i worry about refactorings in the absence of unit test
3719 2011-05-23 21:12:10 <TD> would be easy to break things and not notice

3722 2011-05-23 21:12:40 <Carandiru> so am I correct in saying that mining pools like BTC guild just gather information on each miner connected, for how much each miner has mined themselves, then sums up all miners contributions and distributes the BTC that way OR is it that the pool BTC guild gets the work then distributes it to all the miners connected to the pool
3723 2011-05-23 21:12:45 <erbs> or is the prehash different for each miner, so you cant share it between multiple miners
3724 2011-05-23 21:12:45 <jrmithdobbs> sipa: that's a good idea
3725 2011-05-23 21:13:00 <TD> yeah, it's just hard to do in a reliable way manually.
3726 2011-05-23 21:13:05 <TD> gunit is a pretty nice test framework
3727 2011-05-23 21:13:10 <sipa> TD: and i agree that unit tests are very much needed
3728 2011-05-23 21:13:14 <TD> it might be worth throwing in a few
3729 2011-05-23 21:13:20 <TD> it doesn't even have to be many
3730 2011-05-23 21:13:32 <TD> just establishing that it's a tested codebase will encourage future contributors to pony up :)
3731 2011-05-23 21:13:38 <erbs> if a minder finds a diff-19, diff-18, diff-17 could he pretend to be three diff miners each with their own "hardest" share. so hes getting 3x more than he should

3748 2011-05-23 21:16:15 <sipa> sure, but it's not just the bitcoin client that can do it
3749 2011-05-23 21:16:22 <Carandiru> so am I correct in saying that mining pools like BTC guild just gather information on each miner connected, for how much each miner has mined themselves, then sums up all miners contributions and distributes the BTC that way OR is it that the pool BTC guild gets the work then distributes it to all the miners connected to the pool
3750 2011-05-23 21:16:33 <diki> sipa can you tell me how to get block number on solve time and it's hash?
3751 2011-05-23 21:16:41 <erbs> oh ok sipa i misunderstood.. i thought this was part of the other proposal that had miners reporting just the hardest block they found, to reduce traffic
3752 2011-05-23 21:16:56 <sipa> Carandiru: read https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Pooled_mining

3756 2011-05-23 21:18:31 <sipa> the minimum difficulty is just 1
3757 2011-05-23 21:18:41 <lfm> diki can you get the 80 byte block header itself?
3758 2011-05-23 21:18:41 <Carandiru> ah thank you
3759 2011-05-23 21:18:47 <erbs> ahh ok.. you could increase the threshold tho to reduce traffic i guess

3762 2011-05-23 21:20:22 <diki> pushpoold only stores the share that was solved to get the block
3763 2011-05-23 21:20:27 <diki> but not the hash itself
3764 2011-05-23 21:20:54 <Carandiru> so shares contributed to stale blocks are carried over to the next round in eligius pool?
3765 2011-05-23 21:20:57 <lfm> the share? whats in it?
3766 2011-05-23 21:21:07 <luke-jr> Carandiru: yes
3767 2011-05-23 21:21:16 <erbs> p2p pooling is cool

3770 2011-05-23 21:21:35 <lfm> diki cuz you can easily recalculate the hash if you have the block header
3771 2011-05-23 21:21:41 <Carandiru> interesting - then all stale shares still count
3772 2011-05-23 21:21:51 <Carandiru> just deferred and reset per round
3773 2011-05-23 21:21:59 <luke-jr> Carandiru: yep
3774 2011-05-23 21:22:57 <Carandiru> so why isn't everyone using your pool lol
3775 2011-05-23 21:22:57 <lfm> diki ya, take the first 80 bytes of that and you can recalc the hash easy, even the command line sha256sum command can do it

3777 2011-05-23 21:23:09 <erbs> An independent state probe in West Virginia concludes that mining giant, Massey Energy, was responsible for the April 2010 explosion that killed 29 underground coal mining workers.
3778 2011-05-23 21:23:31 <erbs> criminal prosecution may follow. until then the mine's owner got a few $10 million bonuses
3779 2011-05-23 21:24:28 <erbs> the bigger the damage, the bigger the bonus is apparently the motto of american capitalism

3805 2011-05-23 21:32:50 <BlueMatt> I know Ive been told before but what, exactly, is the problem with wx2.8 that keeps translations from working right?
3806 2011-05-23 21:32:51 <diki> i shorten it until it reaches 80 bytes
3807 2011-05-23 21:32:58 <diki> and then hash it, but the result is not the same
3808 2011-05-23 21:33:06 <luke-jr> BlueMatt: the problem is nobody has done it
3809 2011-05-23 21:33:09 <jgarzik> BlueMatt: we should document the answer to that question somewhere...

3816 2011-05-23 21:33:47 <lfm> ya, take 80 bytes and swap 4 bytes at a time then sha256sum them and sha256 the result

3819 2011-05-23 21:33:54 <luke-jr> the only reason I've heard is "Unicode support", but wxWidgets has had Unicode support for a long time
3820 2011-05-23 21:33:55 <BlueMatt> (I agree)
3821 2011-05-23 21:33:57 <luke-jr> even 2.6
3822 2011-05-23 21:34:01 <jgarzik> yep
3823 2011-05-23 21:34:06 <lfm> ya, take 80 bytes and swap 4 bytes at a time then sha256sum them and sha256um the result
3824 2011-05-23 21:34:07 <BlueMatt> yep
3825 2011-05-23 21:34:32 <jrmithdobbs> lfm: what are you on about
3826 2011-05-23 21:34:33 <BlueMatt> I think its just a rumor that backporting to 2.8 does damage to stuff...I think it just works...anyone ever actually tried?
3827 2011-05-23 21:34:34 <lfm> ya, take 80 bytes and swap 4 bytes at a time then sha256sum them and sha256sum the result then swap the 32 byes to the order you need
3828 2011-05-23 21:35:00 <jgarzik> lfm, diki: this is the canonical example I like to paste: https://github.com/jgarzik/cpuminer/blob/master/sha256_via.c#L43
3829 2011-05-23 21:35:18 <jgarzik> clearly shows (a) byte swapping and (b) where to call sha256 [without midstate and other optimizations]
3830 2011-05-23 21:36:47 <BlueMatt> oh, I think I might have spotted the problem, and its fixable: http://wiki.wxwidgets.org/Converting_everything_to_and_from_wxString#Literals
3831 2011-05-23 21:36:55 <BlueMatt> "A literal is a string written in code with "quotes around it". A literal is not a wxString, and (in wxWidgets 2.8) will not be implicitly converted to one. This means that you can never pass in a raw literal into a wxWidget function or method (unless you don't care about your app not building with Unicode-enabled wxWidgets builds)"
3832 2011-05-23 21:37:21 <BlueMatt> that is probably one of the major problems
3833 2011-05-23 21:37:32 <BlueMatt> and/or is one of the minor problems
3834 2011-05-23 21:37:32 <sipa> there are massive compile errors with wx2.8 though
3835 2011-05-23 21:37:39 <BlueMatt> that is why
3836 2011-05-23 21:37:51 <BlueMatt> (well that is the first compile errors I see)
3837 2011-05-23 21:38:04 <sipa> i get lots of things like /usr/include/wx-2.8/wx/cursor.h:65: error: âwxIsBusyâ was not declared in this scope
3838 2011-05-23 21:38:15 <sipa> and /usr/include/wx-2.8/wx/sizer.h:292: error: invalid use of incomplete type âstruct wxWindowâ
3839 2011-05-23 21:39:52 <BlueMatt> ah, nope I had just started with default start (util.cpp) which is mostly stuff about wxString

4083 2011-05-23 22:33:09 <jgarzik> phantomcircuit: dunno offhand. I wouldn't go larger, just in case there were hardcoded 32-bit assumptions lurking about.
4084 2011-05-23 22:33:41 <phantomcircuit> jgarzik, well im just wondering, since making the 32 bit assumption would VASTLY simply some code, but would make it annoying to change later
4085 2011-05-23 22:34:12 <phantomcircuit> whatever ill just makes the assumption and deal with it later if it's an issue

4088 2011-05-23 22:35:22 <phantomcircuit> jgarzik, yes except my assumption will lead to cleaner code
4089 2011-05-23 22:35:25 <phantomcircuit> not the other way around

4091 2011-05-23 22:35:43 <phantomcircuit> static uint64_t script::parse_bignum(std::string);
4092 2011-05-23 22:35:54 <phantomcircuit> the part im worried about is the uint64_t
4093 2011-05-23 22:35:59 <neoeinstein_> It's used for various counts of the number of operands and for limiting size of operands to arithmetic, so I'd think it's a pretty strong assumption.
4094 2011-05-23 22:36:09 <phantomcircuit> but i guess that can be changed later if it's really an issue

4098 2011-05-23 22:37:28 <phantomcircuit> neoeinstein_, it limit's the byte length of a bignum in the scripts
4099 2011-05-23 22:37:55 <neoeinstein_> And where is CastToBigNum called?
4100 2011-05-23 22:37:59 <neoeinstein_> In the instances I mentioned

4102 2011-05-23 22:40:37 <phantomcircuit> neoeinstein_, oh i see what you meant
4103 2011-05-23 22:40:43 <phantomcircuit> i read that wrong
4104 2011-05-23 22:41:13 <phantomcircuit> neoeinstein_, you can also do simple integer maths, so theoretically it could be increased to allow for adding together really large numbers
4105 2011-05-23 22:41:17 <phantomcircuit> but that seems unlikely
4106 2011-05-23 22:42:04 <neoeinstein_> Right. It's limited to reduce DoS type scripts, though they are still very possible as scripts are now written.
4107 2011-05-23 22:42:50 <neoeinstein_> (speaking of the scripts themselves, not whether the network will propogate them now)
4108 2011-05-23 22:43:00 <diki> you know...i still dont understand how a diff-1 share could find a block at current diff.
4109 2011-05-23 22:43:10 <diki> How are all the shares combined to find the block?
4110 2011-05-23 22:43:17 <gmaxwell> They aren't combined.
4111 2011-05-23 22:43:27 <diki> then how?
4112 2011-05-23 22:43:33 <diki> Pool sends you diff 1 problem
4113 2011-05-23 22:43:37 <gmaxwell> solves at the current diff are a proper subset of diff 1 solutions.
4114 2011-05-23 22:43:56 <neoeinstein_> diff-1 shares don't help find the block at all, unless they also match the current diff. Diff-1 shares otherwise are just proof of work.
4115 2011-05-23 22:44:07 <sipa> diki: diff-1 means: you report all solutions which score at least one, instead of only those who score the real difficulty
4116 2011-05-23 22:44:11 <gmaxwell> the pool says "find blocks where the value is < X" the solution is a block with value Y where Y<X.
4117 2011-05-23 22:44:29 <diki> right, then how in the end does it find the block at current diff?
4118 2011-05-23 22:44:38 <sipa> it just does
4119 2011-05-23 22:44:44 <gmaxwell> diki: one of the diff 1 shares is also a diff=zillion share, by chance.
4120 2011-05-23 22:45:06 <neoeinstein_> the getwork uses the "current diff", but tells the client to report all shares that meet the diff-1 criteria.
4121 2011-05-23 22:45:38 <gmaxwell> right, the block has the correct difficulty, of course, or its not valid.
4122 2011-05-23 22:46:17 <diki> So...all the getworks are just pieces of the original diff?
4123 2011-05-23 22:46:24 <gmaxwell> ...
4124 2011-05-23 22:46:26 <neoeinstein_> No
4125 2011-05-23 22:46:29 * gmaxwell cries
4126 2011-05-23 22:46:49 <gmaxwell> diki: imagine we're playing a dice game. The goal is to roll less than a 4.
4127 2011-05-23 22:47:03 <gmaxwell> Sometimes we might find a solution less than 4 which is also less than 2.
4128 2011-05-23 22:47:23 <gmaxwell> So in that case our roll would win the current game, as well as a harder game.
4129 2011-05-23 22:47:41 <sipa> diki: you get a hash problem, you find many solutions to it; some are good, others are better; the pool just asks you to report all reasonably good solutions, instead of only the really good ones - obviously you will also report the really good ones, but those are very rare
4130 2011-05-23 22:47:47 <diki> but i thought bitcoin checked if the hash is current diff
4131 2011-05-23 22:47:58 <gmaxwell> Likewiseâ the pool has you submit shares with <4 (random number), and eventually one of those will be enough to break the current diff as well.
4132 2011-05-23 22:48:07 <deaf> Does anyone know where I can get a script for a site for when someone enters in their bitcoin address and click "withraw" or "submit" it sends them bitcoins from my wallet?
4133 2011-05-23 22:48:14 kermit has joined
4134 2011-05-23 22:48:23 <gmaxwell> diki: it does. I'm not sure what you're asking there.
4135 2011-05-23 22:48:48 eao has quit (Remote host closed the connection)
4136 2011-05-23 22:49:02 <sipa> diki: for a POW to be a share, it must beat the difficulty-1's target; for a POW to be a real block, it must beat the real target
4137 2011-05-23 22:49:06 <diki> Here's what i understood. Pool sends diff 1 problem...and that diff 1 problem could actually be the correct hash for current diff
4138 2011-05-23 22:49:14 <sipa> yes
4139 2011-05-23 22:49:22 eao has joined
4140 2011-05-23 22:49:26 <forrestv> deaf, 'shares' are blocks matching an arbitrarily higher target than the current difficulty's. some of those shares match the actual target too
4141 2011-05-23 22:49:32 <forrestv> yeah
4142 2011-05-23 22:49:34 <sipa> solutions to the diff-1 problem also include solutions to the diff-difficulty problem
4143 2011-05-23 22:49:53 <diki> so this is like trying to brute-force md5 by finding a hash that is equal to another, but not by it's original value
4144 2011-05-23 22:50:14 <gmaxwell> er.
4145 2011-05-23 22:50:45 <diki> collisions?
4146 2011-05-23 22:50:49 <gmaxwell> You're trying to find hashes less than Y by finding hashes less than X such that Y<X.
4147 2011-05-23 22:50:56 <Namegduf> diki: It's trying to bruteforce SHA256, yes. No original value in particular.
4148 2011-05-23 22:51:00 <jgarzik> diki: pretend that collisions do not exist ;-)
4149 2011-05-23 22:51:05 <gmaxwell> s/such that/given/ (really)
4150 2011-05-23 22:51:21 <Namegduf> Just an arbitrary range of target SHA256 values.
4151 2011-05-23 22:51:26 <diki> so we ARE doing collisions in a more layman terms?
4152 2011-05-23 22:51:29 <Namegduf> No.
4153 2011-05-23 22:51:40 <Namegduf> There are not two values being found which both hash to the same thing.
4154 2011-05-23 22:51:43 <Namegduf> Simple as that.
4155 2011-05-23 22:51:48 <forrestv> not exact collisions, but kinda the same idea - hashes matching a certain pattern
4156 2011-05-23 22:51:56 <gmaxwell> it's a partial collision, technially.. but more partial than collisions.
4157 2011-05-23 22:52:15 <forrestv> instead of searching for an exact collision you search for data with a hash that is within a certain range
4158 2011-05-23 22:52:16 <Namegduf> You're looking for a hash with an arbitrary hash value, set not by the hash of something else but set arbitrarily factoring in difficulty.
4159 2011-05-23 22:52:43 <diki> there is a program out there called evil_md5 i think. It basically does something to a file to make it have the same md5 hash even if the file is different in name,size and contents
4160 2011-05-23 22:52:59 <sipa> yes, that is a real collision
4161 2011-05-23 22:53:04 <sipa> that is not what we're doing
4162 2011-05-23 22:53:08 <JFK911> md5 is easy to collide
4163 2011-05-23 22:53:15 <JFK911> thats why it was banned by the nsa over a decade ago
4164 2011-05-23 22:53:36 <diki> and what about bcrypt?
4165 2011-05-23 22:53:42 <JFK911> what you wanna look at here is preimage attack
4166 2011-05-23 22:53:55 <JFK911> you can decide what almost half the bits are going to be.
4167 2011-05-23 22:54:09 <gmaxwell> diki: in our case we're not trying to get a specific value, just any value such that hash =< target when hash is just taken as a bignum, with target determined by the difficulty.
4168 2011-05-23 22:54:10 <AAA_awright> What crypto algorithm does Bitcoin use for transactions?
4169 2011-05-23 22:54:13 <diki> let's leave it at collisions..any further is going to confuse me
4170 2011-05-23 22:54:16 <AAA_awright> Something that's shorter than RSA
4171 2011-05-23 22:54:19 <sipa> AAA_awright: ECDSA
4172 2011-05-23 22:54:27 <gmaxwell> AAA_awright: no crypto, ECC signatures.
4173 2011-05-23 22:54:39 <sipa> gmaxwell: sure crypto, no encryption though
4174 2011-05-23 22:54:45 <sipa> AAA_awright: using the secp256k1 curve
4175 2011-05-23 22:54:52 <AAA_awright> That's it
4176 2011-05-23 22:54:54 psymin has quit (Quit: Leaving)
4177 2011-05-23 22:55:13 <gmaxwell> sipa: fair. Just wanted to make it clear that it's not encrypted since people seem surprised by that in my expirence.
4178 2011-05-23 22:55:31 <sipa> gmaxwell: agree, i've seen many people make that assumption too
4179 2011-05-23 22:55:36 <gmaxwell> AAA_awright: thats it for the transactions.
4180 2011-05-23 22:56:23 <diki> In push pool we have easy target set as ffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffff00000000. What should i change to make the diff 2 or 3 or higher?
4181 2011-05-23 22:56:37 <AAA_awright> There's other methods for other things
4182 2011-05-23 22:56:41 <sipa> diff 2: fffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffff700000000
4183 2011-05-23 22:56:49 <gmaxwell> diki: note that making the difficulty higher will make many GPU miner clients far less efficient.
4184 2011-05-23 22:56:56 <gmaxwell> s/far// I guess.
4185 2011-05-23 22:57:04 <diki> but deepbit and slush give out higher diffs
4186 2011-05-23 22:57:07 <sipa> diff 1.999969482421875 actually
4187 2011-05-23 22:57:12 <sipa> no
4188 2011-05-23 22:57:22 <sipa> oh, not sure
4189 2011-05-23 22:57:38 <sipa> gmaxwell: how so?
4190 2011-05-23 22:57:50 <bradmills> hey fellas - does anyone know of any BTC wealthy folks who would like to invest some BTC in a business that will help grow the global btc economy and attract new bitcoin users? It's a product/service (something everyon's asking for). It's an investment so you will get cash and BTC back.
4191 2011-05-23 22:58:07 <sipa> bradmills: the forums is probably the best place to ask

4194 2011-05-23 22:58:23 <gmaxwell> sipa: well I removed the far because it was stupid. It's not far. but e.g. phoenix has a dumb slow sha256 implemention which is uses to check the diff1 results from the gpu kernel.

4202 2011-05-23 23:01:57 <sipa> diki: it's just hex notation for numbers
4203 2011-05-23 23:02:07 <sipa> i'm not going to explain how that works
4204 2011-05-23 23:02:23 <diki> i used some online hex to dec and vice versa but the numbers are not the same as what they should be
4205 2011-05-23 23:02:36 <sipa> gmaxwell: i believe the miner does the calculation for all candidate solutions anyway, as it wants to check for hardware errors

4286 2011-05-23 23:35:52 <fabianhjr> The reason I can't trade is because I want to change 5 USD into < 1 BTC.
4287 2011-05-23 23:36:03 <fabianhjr> And it will round and I have not enough funds.
4288 2011-05-23 23:36:08 <jrmithdobbs> wait, i think i'm retarded
4289 2011-05-23 23:36:09 <fabianhjr> Why do you have that rule btw?
4290 2011-05-23 23:36:13 <jrmithdobbs> fooled by symlinks

4292 2011-05-23 23:36:24 <jrmithdobbs> whoops, telling all 4 to use the same gpu is not productive
4293 2011-05-23 23:36:25 <jrmithdobbs> lol
4294 2011-05-23 23:37:10 <fabianhjr> Wait, the fuck?
4295 2011-05-23 23:37:17 <Dekbit> some people do run several pointed at different pools concurrently
4296 2011-05-23 23:37:18 <fabianhjr> Everyone should be using the 5970 by now.
4297 2011-05-23 23:38:23 <phantomcircuit> lol
4298 2011-05-23 23:38:33 <phantomcircuit> bignum in the scripts is just sign & magnitude
4299 2011-05-23 23:38:36 <phantomcircuit> fail
4300 2011-05-23 23:38:39 <jrmithdobbs> wait no, not all using the same gpu
4301 2011-05-23 23:38:41 <phantomcircuit> 0 and -0
4302 2011-05-23 23:38:44 <phantomcircuit> sigh

4305 2011-05-23 23:40:00 <jrmithdobbs> broken scripts, ha

4311 2011-05-23 23:42:48 <phantomcircuit> jrmithdobbs, there is literally a valid representation of negative zero

4319 2011-05-23 23:44:50 <phantomcircuit> lol

4323 2011-05-23 23:47:02 <ntosme21> which miner should I use with multiple cards?
4324 2011-05-23 23:47:25 <jrmithdobbs> wtf is negative zero
4325 2011-05-23 23:47:42 <phantomcircuit> jrmithdobbs, zero with a sign bit
4326 2011-05-23 23:47:46 <phantomcircuit> lolololololol
4327 2011-05-23 23:47:48 <jrmithdobbs> but
4328 2011-05-23 23:47:50 <jrmithdobbs> why
4329 2011-05-23 23:48:06 <phantomcircuit> because satoishi decided to use the openssl bignum library
4330 2011-05-23 23:48:17 <phantomcircuit> and he's using like half of their insane format
4331 2011-05-23 23:48:26 <Carandiru> its still zero and should be treated as such
4332 2011-05-23 23:48:49 <phantomcircuit> Carandiru, well yes
4333 2011-05-23 23:48:52 <phantomcircuit> but it's insane
4334 2011-05-23 23:48:59 <jrmithdobbs> interesting http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Signed_zero
4335 2011-05-23 23:49:12 <jrmithdobbs> i don't see how it's useful to bitcoin .... but learn something every day
4336 2011-05-23 23:50:14 <phantomcircuit> jrmithdobbs, it's not useful at all
4337 2011-05-23 23:50:21 <phantomcircuit> it's simply a quirk of the script engine
4338 2011-05-23 23:50:44 <jrmithdobbs> that's not even concept i've head of until now, haha
4339 2011-05-23 23:50:55 <Carandiru> I could just imagine someone writing some code that is .... if ( iX == 0 ) else if ( iX == -0) else ....
4340 2011-05-23 23:51:37 <bitlife> lol
4341 2011-05-23 23:52:42 <phantomcircuit> sigh i guess i shouldn't be using public facing api's which could potentially be obsoleted in the future
4342 2011-05-23 23:52:53 <phantomcircuit> now i need a stupid bignum class
4343 2011-05-23 23:52:54 <phantomcircuit> god
