  15 2011-05-24 00:10:35 <BlueMatt> so its not really a good option for anything

  58 2011-05-24 00:34:35 <jrmithdobbs> jgarzik: so, if i bump pushpoold's fake difficulty down it should just decrease network traffic right? (I don't care about recording shares and that it will drop the number of shares per miner significantly)

  61 2011-05-24 00:35:53 <jgarzik> jrmithdobbs: if you increase the fake difficulty, it will decrease the network traffic, correct.
  62 2011-05-24 00:36:03 <jgarzik> "increase" == make it harder, more difficult

  81 2011-05-24 00:58:01 <phantomcircuit> CastToBool is wrong
  82 2011-05-24 00:59:28 <spitteler> could anyone help with a .command file to open bitcoin from a thumbdrive on a mac?

  94 2011-05-24 01:04:09 <luke-jr> phantomcircuit: it seems ok to me, though an odd format for the input

  97 2011-05-24 01:04:33 <phantomcircuit> luke-jr, pay attention to the position of the most significant byte
  98 2011-05-24 01:04:44 <luke-jr> phantomcircuit: it's big endian, right?
  99 2011-05-24 01:04:50 <phantomcircuit> yes
 100 2011-05-24 01:04:59 <luke-jr> so?
 101 2011-05-24 01:05:24 <luke-jr> it's also got -0 at 0x80… rather than -1
 102 2011-05-24 01:05:33 <phantomcircuit> the most significant bit of the most significant byte is the sign
 103 2011-05-24 01:05:40 <luke-jr> actually, wouldn't that normally be MININT?
 104 2011-05-24 01:05:50 <phantomcircuit> the way way it's written it's the most significant bit of the LEAST significant byte
 105 2011-05-24 01:06:06 <luke-jr> no, because the most significant byte is last
 106 2011-05-24 01:07:26 <phantomcircuit> lol wat
 107 2011-05-24 01:07:48 <luke-jr> I find the odd signed encoding more interesting
 108 2011-05-24 01:07:58 <phantomcircuit> yeah it's sign & magnitude
 109 2011-05-24 01:07:59 <luke-jr> btw, don't bother with a patch-- even if you were right, it would be stupid to merge it
 110 2011-05-24 01:08:09 devon_hillard has quit (Read error: Connection reset by peer)
 111 2011-05-24 01:08:45 <phantomcircuit> luke-jr, either i've gone retarded or the most significant byte should be stored in the lowest memory address with big endian
 112 2011-05-24 01:09:00 <luke-jr> such a change would allow someone to craft a pair of transactions which created a massive block chain fork at some point when ~50% had adopted the fixed version
 113 2011-05-24 01:09:09 <luke-jr> phantomcircuit: ok, maybe it's little endian then
 114 2011-05-24 01:09:28 <luke-jr> to me, "big endian" sounds like "biggest goes last" :P
 115 2011-05-24 01:09:31 <phantomcircuit> luke-jr, well im 100% certain that it's big endian
 116 2011-05-24 01:09:42 <luke-jr> phantomcircuit: …
 117 2011-05-24 01:09:50 <phantomcircuit> it's using the openssl bn library
 118 2011-05-24 01:09:52 <luke-jr> the endianness is DEFINED by how it's handled
 119 2011-05-24 01:09:54 <sherpacore> skewing a node's time 70 minutes ahead could be an issue
 120 2011-05-24 01:10:15 <phantomcircuit> luke-jr, yeah openssl handles everything as be
 121 2011-05-24 01:10:19 <luke-jr> sherpacore: of course, that's why people are told to make sure their clock is right
 122 2011-05-24 01:10:30 <luke-jr> phantomcircuit: irrelevant, scripts aren't openssl
 123 2011-05-24 01:10:37 <phantomcircuit> uh yes they are
 124 2011-05-24 01:10:44 <sherpacore> then you can feed the a block with a timstamp 190 minutes ahead, and they will accept it (but everyone else will reject) - so you can use this to doublespend, or to take down a pool
 125 2011-05-24 01:10:48 <phantomcircuit> CBigNum is openssl bignum
 126 2011-05-24 01:10:56 <sherpacore> luke-jr - actually you can skew the time +70 minutes regardless of the system clock
 127 2011-05-24 01:11:01 <luke-jr> I don't care how it's implemented in wxBitcoin
 128 2011-05-24 01:11:03 <sherpacore> by sending version requests with false timestamps
 129 2011-05-24 01:11:29 <phantomcircuit> luke-jr, oh yes i see what you're saying
 130 2011-05-24 01:11:41 <phantomcircuit> luke-jr, 256 is now officially negative 0
 131 2011-05-24 01:11:44 <phantomcircuit> facepalm

 133 2011-05-24 01:13:00 <luke-jr> 128
 134 2011-05-24 01:13:04 <phantomcircuit> hmm
 135 2011-05-24 01:13:05 <sherpacore> if (abs64(nMedian) < 70 * 60) nTimeOffset = nMedian;   // it takes one timestamp per IP and gets the median... so if you create 1000 tor clients, you can alter any nodes network time... then that node will accept a block +190 minutes ahead of the real network time (2 hour threshold + 70 minute offset)
 136 2011-05-24 01:13:13 <luke-jr> or -128

 141 2011-05-24 01:13:50 <luke-jr> phantomcircuit: prove it
 142 2011-05-24 01:14:09 <luke-jr> sherpacore: … he's talking about the mechanism the built-in "ntp" would use
 143 2011-05-24 01:14:11 <phantomcircuit> luke-jr, well it's SUPPOSED to be 256
 144 2011-05-24 01:14:18 <sherpacore> oh i c luke-jr
 145 2011-05-24 01:14:24 <luke-jr> phantomcircuit: you mean 00 00 00 80
 146 2011-05-24 01:14:32 <phantomcircuit> luke-jr, yes
 147 2011-05-24 01:14:39 <luke-jr> phantomcircuit: which is 0x00000080 in one endian, and 0x80000000 in the other
 148 2011-05-24 01:14:44 <luke-jr> obviously this is a case of the other
 149 2011-05-24 01:14:59 <phantomcircuit> sure except that every other number will be right
 150 2011-05-24 01:15:00 <luke-jr> and 0x80 is 128
 151 2011-05-24 01:15:15 <phantomcircuit> luke-jr, 0x80 is 128 in twos complement
 152 2011-05-24 01:15:30 <phantomcircuit> oh wait

 157 2011-05-24 01:16:00 <luke-jr> phantomcircuit: also, nothing in that function implies input is 32-bit
 158 2011-05-24 01:16:02 <sherpacore> deepbit could go rogue for instance and a) inject a false time into say mtgox's address b) create a block that sends 100000 coins to mtgox  c) convert the coins into USD and cash out  d) deepbit will now be working on a fork that every other node rejects, and will have to back out of that chain once the network creates 2 more blocks   e) by this time deepbit already hase $700K USD in its

 165 2011-05-24 01:16:50 <sherpacore> (the block in B has a fake timestamp +190 minutes - enough so that all other nodes reject, but within mtgox's hacked time offset)

 169 2011-05-24 01:17:29 <gmaxwell> a miner _can't_ do things like "create a block that sends 100000 coins to mtgox"
 170 2011-05-24 01:17:42 <luke-jr> gmaxwell: unless he has 100000 coins
 171 2011-05-24 01:17:50 <gmaxwell> indeed.
 172 2011-05-24 01:18:05 <sherpacore> yes he has the coins - but he counts on the tx being backed out once the real chain overtakes it
 173 2011-05-24 01:18:26 <phantomcircuit> sherpacore, yes a double spend
 174 2011-05-24 01:18:28 <luke-jr> sherpacore: also, MtGox waits for 8 confirmations
 175 2011-05-24 01:18:32 <phantomcircuit> sherpacore, it would be obvious as fuck
 176 2011-05-24 01:18:34 <gmaxwell> sherpacore: indeed, this is why mtgox waits for tx to be burried before crediting accounts.
 177 2011-05-24 01:18:42 <luke-jr> sherpacore: that generally takes over an hour
 178 2011-05-24 01:18:52 <luke-jr> sherpacore: by which time, those 70 minues are about expired
 179 2011-05-24 01:19:02 <luke-jr> and MtGox can rebroadcast the "wrong time" blocks to the real net
 180 2011-05-24 01:19:15 <phantomcircuit> luke-jr, anyways the problem here is more that the addition operations are big endian, but the casttobool is little endian

 183 2011-05-24 01:19:29 <phantomcircuit> luke-jr, so that's something everybody will need to be aware of when working with the scripts
 184 2011-05-24 01:19:34 <luke-jr> phantomcircuit: and if you fix it, you will create a block chain fork
 185 2011-05-24 01:19:48 <sherpacore> the victim can be tied up (the victim could be another pool that you want to attack, or a merchant you want to trick into getting 1 or 2 confirms)
 186 2011-05-24 01:19:49 <phantomcircuit> luke-jr, well that depends on how long it takes for people to upgrade
 187 2011-05-24 01:19:56 <luke-jr> phantomcircuit: maybe
 188 2011-05-24 01:20:41 <phantomcircuit> and actually it's currently only an issue in ops that nobody uses
 189 2011-05-24 01:20:45 <phantomcircuit> so it's totally doable
 190 2011-05-24 01:20:45 <gmaxwell> sherpacore: in any case, reversals are a risk from anyone with good luck or lots of hash power. To prevent them you don't perform irreversable actions without waiting for the tx to season.
 191 2011-05-24 01:20:45 <neoeinstein> phantomcircuit, openssl does allow for a value of -0
 192 2011-05-24 01:20:47 <luke-jr> sherpacore: anyhow, I think you describe a "sybil" attack

 194 2011-05-24 01:20:54 <phantomcircuit> neoeinstein, yes im aware
 195 2011-05-24 01:21:04 <sherpacore> luke-jr - yes partially.. you need to sybilize the peer timestamps
 196 2011-05-24 01:21:15 <gmaxwell> deepbit can perform reversals already without the timestamp game.
 197 2011-05-24 01:21:25 <luke-jr> yep
 198 2011-05-24 01:21:28 <phantomcircuit> neoeinstein, the CastToBool function implements it's own check (god knows why) and does so incorrectly, it treats a big endian number as little endian
 199 2011-05-24 01:22:03 <phantomcircuit> neoeinstein, i was writing some scripting stuff and was puzzled by it then realized it was totally wrong
 200 2011-05-24 01:22:10 <gmaxwell> step 1: send a few megabit DOS to slush to knock it offline, now with >50% hash power it builds it's own alteranative longer chain to erase a prior transaction. tada.

 215 2011-05-24 01:25:27 <phantomcircuit> and also insane
 216 2011-05-24 01:25:53 <sherpacore> the other way to do it is to put the victim 70 minutes in the past and put the other pools 70 minutes into the future... then create a block with +190 minutes. the victim is stuck on stale blocks for 260 minutes... while the other pools are happily extending it.  its more of a way to do pool warfare

 223 2011-05-24 01:27:43 <slush> sherpacore: how to force some pool to break his time? :)
 224 2011-05-24 01:27:47 <gmaxwell> sherpacore: hm, so this is still a short term attack, since it breaks the network, so seasoning blocks still addresses it. But I think you are making a good argument for better time hardening in sensitive places.
 225 2011-05-24 01:27:56 <gmaxwell> (like pools and exchanges)
 226 2011-05-24 01:28:02 <gmaxwell> slush: sybil attack.
 227 2011-05-24 01:28:15 <gmaxwell> slush: the node uses a median of neighbors to get the time.
 228 2011-05-24 01:28:38 <phantomcircuit> gmaxwell, pools and exchanges really shouldn't be trusting the network time at all...
 229 2011-05-24 01:28:42 <gmaxwell> sherpacore: though I know for a fact that pools are using carefully guarded network connectivity for peering the main pool daemon already (for DOS reasons)
 230 2011-05-24 01:29:01 <gmaxwell> you can pickup really awesome GPS DOs on ebay for about $200.
 231 2011-05-24 01:29:14 <gmaxwell> I have a pair I use for accurate network latency measurements.
 232 2011-05-24 01:29:15 <phantomcircuit> what? you can just run ntpd and get more than close enough
 233 2011-05-24 01:29:24 <gmaxwell> phantomcircuit: ntp is vulnerable to attack.
 234 2011-05-24 01:29:34 <slush> gmaxwell: pool isn't using bitcoin network time, of course
 235 2011-05-24 01:29:35 <phantomcircuit> you're talking time resolutions on the scale of minutes
 236 2011-05-24 01:30:01 <gmaxwell> slush: it does unless you've modified the daemon.
 237 2011-05-24 01:30:15 <phantomcircuit> i doubt he's even running the daemon...

 241 2011-05-24 01:30:47 <slush> phantomcircuit: all current pools are using bitcoin client
 242 2011-05-24 01:30:56 <phantomcircuit> slush, seriously? jesus
 243 2011-05-24 01:31:13 <gmaxwell> slush: median of 11 prior blocks.
 244 2011-05-24 01:31:41 <gmaxwell> it's clamped to ±70 minutes of local time however.
 245 2011-05-24 01:31:44 <slush> I did some attempts to do all stuff by self, but there are many stuff to reimplement :(
 246 2011-05-24 01:32:33 <phantomcircuit> slush, p2p, block/transaction hash, scripting, storage

 250 2011-05-24 01:33:00 <phantomcircuit> it's actually a lot less work than it seems
 251 2011-05-24 01:33:07 <neoeinstein> Add in a few more tests, and then I think its time to start writing some network connectivity code...

 255 2011-05-24 01:35:30 <sherpacore> gmaxwell, if during that 260 min window you manage to gen another block with +190 minutes, the victim will be forced to fall behind again.. so your chances are pretty good even with 1/26 of the hashpower

 258 2011-05-24 01:36:05 <gmaxwell> sherpacore: they still fall off exponentially with longer attacks so long as your hashpower is <%50
 259 2011-05-24 01:38:23 <gmaxwell> sherpacore: but yes, sure, so high value targets need to have network health logic, and independant accurate clocks. This is SOP-ish stuff. Though I'm not sure if anyone has actually tried to document this stuff.

 268 2011-05-24 01:44:13 <gmaxwell> sherpacore: a lot of systems are a little bit wrong and get happily corrected. For random normal nodes without trustworthy time it wouldn't be great.
 269 2011-05-24 01:45:00 <gmaxwell> There is just a question of local vs network (with possible attackers) being more trustworthy, and the depends on who and where you are.

 273 2011-05-24 01:46:27 <gmaxwell> the client also starts screaming when your local clock and the netwok disagree by some small amount..

 278 2011-05-24 01:47:34 <gmaxwell> it just bombs out at 70, doesn't warn.
 279 2011-05-24 01:47:36 <gmaxwell> lemme look
 280 2011-05-24 01:47:53 <kika_> why i need to run aticonfig --adapters=all -f first for the miners to work fast?
 281 2011-05-24 01:48:47 <sherpacore> even if you only talk to trusted peers.. they might be talking to untrusted peers (but what timestamp is presented in version? your perception of network time, or your system time...)
 282 2011-05-24 01:49:24 <gmaxwell> sherpacore: importantly, if your trusted peers include the big miners, then it's much harder to screw with you.

 284 2011-05-24 01:50:36 <sherpacore> the other solution is to just force difficulty increased every X blocks, regardless of the time performance. basically lock it in
 285 2011-05-24 01:51:04 <sherpacore> and if the network is genning too fast, cap it - no new payouts until the next difficulty or something
 286 2011-05-24 01:51:46 <gmaxwell> difficulty has gone down, and it's expected to not increase forever.
 287 2011-05-24 01:52:08 <gmaxwell> it should reach an equilibrium at some point.
 288 2011-05-24 01:52:15 <kika_> can someone help me with aticonfig? what aticonfig --adapters=all -f does?
 289 2011-05-24 01:52:34 <sherpacore> if miners re-invest their earnings into more GPUs to gain an edge over other pools... then it will go up and up
 290 2011-05-24 01:53:16 <gmaxwell> sherpacore: not so, it reaches an flat level when all the block rewards are spent on mining hardware.
 291 2011-05-24 01:53:51 <gmaxwell> rather, hardware/operations.

 307 2011-05-24 01:59:13 <dlt> i cant find on wiki...
 308 2011-05-24 01:59:35 <sherpacore> the only problem there is deepbit and some pools could join together to deliberately submit blocks with >2h timestamps... and freeze out small pools (basically kill the other 50% of the hashpower who will work on stale blocks forever). they would circulate 2 chains (one up to 2h, and the other which is the forward edge of the hashing)
 309 2011-05-24 02:00:13 <sherpacore> actually they can do that now i guess...
 310 2011-05-24 02:00:23 <gmaxwell> sherpacore: yes, right well, collisions with 50%+ hash power could purely _ignore_ the other pools without touching the time.
 311 2011-05-24 02:00:34 <sherpacore> yeah
 312 2011-05-24 02:00:42 <gmaxwell> because if they only extend their own blocks they'll be hopeless longer than the other side at some point.
 313 2011-05-24 02:01:08 <sherpacore> and then the other 50% would eventually accept the chain (while the real chain just out of time bounds is being extended only by the evil 50%)
 314 2011-05-24 02:01:08 <gmaxwell> One of the security assumptions is that this won't happen, won't be allowed to happen.
 315 2011-05-24 02:02:08 <gmaxwell> sherpacore: yes, someone recently did a post showing that you didn't quite need 50% to lock out a smaller pool via virtual-collusion  e.g. you extend your own blocks, and bob's blocks such that you and bob are >50%.
 316 2011-05-24 02:02:39 <gmaxwell> Bob doesn't even have to be going along with your evil, just not ignoring your blocks due to rejecting them for other reasons.

 320 2011-05-24 02:03:10 <gmaxwell> In any case, the concentration of hashpower is certantly bad, thus all the recent howling about deepbit.
 321 2011-05-24 02:03:41 <gmaxwell> Unfortunately deepbit has so far refused to voluntarily restrain their size, and community corrective measures have only had moderate effect.

 363 2011-05-24 02:16:05 <Asphodelia> Ah, nice. To what?

 366 2011-05-24 02:16:14 <gmaxwell> 0.0005 is the MIN_TX now.
 367 2011-05-24 02:16:16 <jrmithdobbs> and there are nodes on the live network already using the new rules
 368 2011-05-24 02:16:25 <Asphodelia> Right on.

 370 2011-05-24 02:17:05 <sherpacore> pixar is setting up a btc mining operation
 371 2011-05-24 02:17:18 <sherpacore> they are using spare cycles on their massive render farm to mine for coin
 372 2011-05-24 02:17:28 <Asphodelia> I find that unlikely; presumably they have more lucrative uses for their GPUs.
 373 2011-05-24 02:18:39 <luke-jr> Asphodelia: it's revised on Eligius since it opened
 374 2011-05-24 02:18:55 <luke-jr> Asphodelia: Eligius will accept 0.00004096 BTC per 512 bytes
 375 2011-05-24 02:19:04 <sherpacore> yeah the timestamp attack of +- 70 is purely theoretical.. if pools/miners use system time instead of network time and if merchants do the same or require a good number of confirms before deliverying the goods, they're fine.
 376 2011-05-24 02:19:13 <ArtForzZy> also, wrong
 377 2011-05-24 02:19:35 <luke-jr> Asphodelia: but that's below the p2p bandwidth costs, so you need to connect to the free-relay net to do it

 379 2011-05-24 02:19:50 <ArtForzZy> the min output rule and fees per kB werent touched in mainline
 380 2011-05-24 02:19:58 <gmaxwell> sherpacore: good number of confirms is already a widely known best practice.
 381 2011-05-24 02:20:08 <ArtForzZy> main difference is min fee is now 0.005
 382 2011-05-24 02:20:10 <ArtForzZy> err
 383 2011-05-24 02:20:20 <ArtForzZy> 0.0005
 384 2011-05-24 02:20:37 <gmaxwell> wtf is the point of chaning the min fee without changing the per kb /foward rule?

 398 2011-05-24 02:21:45 <gmaxwell> luke-jr: the GUI also enforced the minimum
 399 2011-05-24 02:21:46 <ArtForzZy> min output is still 0.01

 402 2011-05-24 02:22:16 <gmaxwell> No, the gui enforces the minimum payment, but the minimum fee has been reduced.

 406 2011-05-24 02:22:51 <gmaxwell> in .21 the GUI will not let you send a very low prior tx without a fee of at least 0.01.

 453 2011-05-24 02:34:08 <sherpacore> in the future youll send entangled particles to your peers, and they read one off every 1 second. if someone reports a wrong spin, you know theyre lying because you can just read the particle from your own stream

 455 2011-05-24 02:35:49 <gmaxwell> sherpacore: it would be trivial to talk to the local ntp daemon if there is one, and if it thinks its time is good — use that. Interesting question if NTP is more trustworthy though.
 456 2011-05-24 02:36:29 <gmaxwell> sherpacore: since on most systems 0wning up one or two NTP servers is all that would be required.

 524 2011-05-24 02:50:50 <jrmithdobbs> transactions, block generation, anything non-trivial (ie, not requiring massive hashing power or coins to throw around)
 525 2011-05-24 02:50:57 <sherpacore> downloading 420k blocks (21M btc) isnt a big deal... after that the fees wouldnt justify massive compute power
 526 2011-05-24 02:51:00 <jrmithdobbs> that does influence?
 527 2011-05-24 02:51:41 <sherpacore> the other way is for each btc to represent 1 vote on the production curve

 531 2011-05-24 02:52:28 <sherpacore> first you register as a voter (so lost bitcoins arent considered registered voters), then you vote on the production rate.. the plurality wins
 532 2011-05-24 02:53:01 <sherpacore> if miners vote to generate 1 block every nanosecond they will vote bitcoin into uselesness (but they wouldnt would they)
 533 2011-05-24 02:53:05 <gmaxwell> well the block themselves set one clamp. and it's clamped to ±70 min local time.
 534 2011-05-24 02:53:21 <gmaxwell> sherpacore: voting on it would reduce the determinisim of the system.
 535 2011-05-24 02:53:50 <sherpacore> yes.. but you don't require a time source and the production rate would maximize the utility for the btc shareholders

 550 2011-05-24 03:02:36 <sherpacore> so by proxy >50% of the miners could increase production by agreeing to post and accept 2x timestamps - for every 10 real minutes, the chain appears to go by 20 minutes.. other nodes will accept the first 6 blocks (a lead they cant outhash).. in the next difficulty adjustment, the difficulty goes down

 568 2011-05-24 03:13:06 <sherpacore> seems complicated
 569 2011-05-24 03:13:09 <phantomcircuit> sherpacore, this has been discussed a lot, the attack works, but only once and only for about 4 blocks
 570 2011-05-24 03:13:13 <phantomcircuit> sherpacore, so whatevah
 571 2011-05-24 03:13:26 <sherpacore> which attack are we talking about
 572 2011-05-24 03:13:35 <phantomcircuit> pushing the timestamps forward
 573 2011-05-24 03:15:34 <gmaxwell> phantomcircuit: he suggested another one which is perhaps a bit more potent. open a 100 connections to each miner from different IPs (gogo tor) and drive their network time +70, then connect to mtgox from 100 IPs and drive its time -70.  Now mine, and your blocks are the only ones it heeds, because the real miners are outside of the two hour window. Lets you to temporary blockchain takeovers with less hashpower.
 574 2011-05-24 03:16:15 <jrmithdobbs> right
 575 2011-05-24 03:16:25 <jrmithdobbs> i think this is actually a plausible attack with real consequences
 576 2011-05-24 03:16:59 <phantomcircuit> gmaxwell, sure but you'd need to be EXACTLY +-70
 577 2011-05-24 03:17:20 <jrmithdobbs> phantomcircuit: no you can push it up/down slowly with multiple connects
 578 2011-05-24 03:17:26 <phantomcircuit> gmaxwell, and since the exchanges all have fixed peering lists...
 579 2011-05-24 03:17:28 <phantomcircuit> good luck with that
 580 2011-05-24 03:17:44 <sherpacore> dont those 1-level removed peers talk to other untrusted peers
 581 2011-05-24 03:17:53 <gmaxwell> yea, I pointed out that both pools and (I guesseD) exchanges are doing selective peering.
 582 2011-05-24 03:17:53 <jrmithdobbs> yup.
 583 2011-05-24 03:17:55 <sherpacore> eventually they have to accept a version from an unclean person
 584 2011-05-24 03:18:43 <phantomcircuit> jrmithdobbs, no in the ~1s it takes a block to propagate the miner woudl have to be +70 and mtgox -70, exactly
 585 2011-05-24 03:18:52 <phantomcircuit> jrmithdobbs, fat chance
 586 2011-05-24 03:19:03 <jrmithdobbs> phantomcircuit: except that you have the 5-10 minutes between blocks to do it
 587 2011-05-24 03:19:19 <jrmithdobbs> phantomcircuit: and just need to appear as >50% to the target
 588 2011-05-24 03:19:21 random_cat has quit (Ping timeout: 246 seconds)
 589 2011-05-24 03:19:45 <jrmithdobbs> phantomcircuit: maybe doing it to mtgox specifically is hard but there are other targets
 590 2011-05-24 03:19:51 <gmaxwell> phantomcircuit: would there be anything bad about systems with robust time (e.g. pools and exchanges with local ntp stratum 1 clocks) just disabling the network offset stuff?
 591 2011-05-24 03:20:35 <gmaxwell> (or adding a bit of code to query the local ntp daemon and use its time if it thinks its sane, network time otherwise)
 592 2011-05-24 03:21:27 <jrmithdobbs> why is the network using itself for time at all?
 593 2011-05-24 03:24:03 <phantomcircuit> gmaxwell, not afaict
 594 2011-05-24 03:24:47 <phantomcircuit> jrmithdobbs, no actually you dont, the time drift has to be within network latency from the miner to the target
 595 2011-05-24 03:24:53 <phantomcircuit> jrmithdobbs, so again... fat chance
 596 2011-05-24 03:25:20 <gmaxwell> I'm missing why.
 597 2011-05-24 03:25:25 <jrmithdobbs> me too
 598 2011-05-24 03:25:36 <phantomcircuit> because the block time is checked when it's received
 599 2011-05-24 03:25:59 <jrmithdobbs> sure, so between blocks you bump the clock, what am I missing?
 600 2011-05-24 03:26:03 <phantomcircuit> maybe im just missing something
 601 2011-05-24 03:26:08 <gmaxwell> Right and if theblock time and the target's time disagree by >120 minutes, the block will be ignored.
 602 2011-05-24 03:26:22 <gmaxwell> You've driven both clocks out of wack with your sybil attack.
 603 2011-05-24 03:26:43 <gmaxwell> the bound isn't tight because you can get them 140 minutes apart.
 604 2011-05-24 03:26:50 <jrmithdobbs> phantomcircuit: eg, you would start right after a block was found, bombard your targets with bogus connects that drive up and down the clock and get it to +/-70 on either side before the next block
 605 2011-05-24 03:27:39 <jrmithdobbs> phantomcircuit: what's being missed?
 606 2011-05-24 03:28:10 <phantomcircuit> one sec

 608 2011-05-24 03:29:08 <phantomcircuit> jrmithdobbs, oh i see there is a 10 minute gap
 609 2011-05-24 03:29:13 <phantomcircuit> hmm
 610 2011-05-24 03:29:21 <gmaxwell> I wish I could figure out why we bother with network time at all.. other than as something to compare the local clock to and fail throw an error when its too far off.
 611 2011-05-24 03:29:21 <phantomcircuit> yeah you could do it
 612 2011-05-24 03:29:47 <phantomcircuit> the patch is simply to change 70 to 60
 613 2011-05-24 03:29:49 <gmaxwell> phantomcircuit: yea if it was ±60 allowed from local time then this would be okay
 614 2011-05-24 03:29:51 <phantomcircuit> and magic it's impossible
 615 2011-05-24 03:30:10 Diablo-D3 has joined
 616 2011-05-24 03:30:44 <gmaxwell> though if you're going to do 60 you're going to screw people with wrong timezones, might as well go tighter and reduce sillyness some more.

 618 2011-05-24 03:31:17 <gmaxwell> (I assume timezone error is why it's at 70 now)
 619 2011-05-24 03:31:40 <phantomcircuit> well i've learned that just because constants seem arbitrary doesn't mean they are...
 620 2011-05-24 03:31:44 <gmaxwell> yea…
 621 2011-05-24 03:31:56 dissipate has quit (Quit: Leaving)
 622 2011-05-24 03:32:10 <gmaxwell> I still don't see why hosts with working NTP couldn't just check the ntp status and use that if ntp reports good health.
 623 2011-05-24 03:32:23 <phantomcircuit> ntp is centralized
 624 2011-05-24 03:32:40 <gmaxwell> if the hosts time is from ntp then it's local time is already from ntp.
 625 2011-05-24 03:32:50 <phantomcircuit> yeah im aware
 626 2011-05-24 03:32:53 <jrmithdobbs> phantomcircuit: no it's not
 627 2011-05-24 03:33:09 <phantomcircuit> jrmithdobbs, it totally is, the dns is centrally controlled
 628 2011-05-24 03:33:10 <jrmithdobbs> phantomcircuit: stratum 1 devices that can check multiple sources are cheap
 629 2011-05-24 03:33:13 <gmaxwell> jrmithdobbs: well it is kinda, it's driven from GPS clocks almost everywhere...
 630 2011-05-24 03:33:28 <jrmithdobbs> it's just a matter of picking your sources wisely
 631 2011-05-24 03:33:30 <gmaxwell> (or cdma clocks which are driven from GPS clocks)
 632 2011-05-24 03:33:57 random_cat has joined
 633 2011-05-24 03:33:58 <jrmithdobbs> and if you want to argue that then time is centralized
 634 2011-05-24 03:34:08 <jrmithdobbs> since governments have decided to arbitrarily fuck with DST/etc
 635 2011-05-24 03:34:17 <gmaxwell> phantomcircuit: right now the fact that if a node listens you can pretty much set its time freely in the allowed window (and change the allowed window if you own NTP too) seems kinda ugly.
 636 2011-05-24 03:34:47 <phantomcircuit> gmaxwell, well you cant actually if the node isn't listening for inbound connections
 637 2011-05-24 03:34:58 <jrmithdobbs> phantomcircuit: then you target it's peers.
 638 2011-05-24 03:35:19 <phantomcircuit> yeah and now the scale of your attack is hilarious
 639 2011-05-24 03:35:26 <phantomcircuit> like the entire network more or less
 640 2011-05-24 03:35:26 <jrmithdobbs> not really
 641 2011-05-24 03:35:31 <gmaxwell> it's a cheap attack though.
 642 2011-05-24 03:35:35 <gmaxwell> you need 100 ips.
 643 2011-05-24 03:35:40 <jrmithdobbs> no you just need to appear as half the nodes on the network to the targets
 644 2011-05-24 03:35:41 <gmaxwell> and lots of connections from each one.
 645 2011-05-24 03:35:57 <jrmithdobbs> it's hard, especially with the stock code, to have more than 50-100 connections at a given time
 646 2011-05-24 03:35:58 <phantomcircuit> jrmithdobbs, >half
 647 2011-05-24 03:36:13 <gmaxwell> and you need to do nothing but the version string stuff.
 648 2011-05-24 03:36:25 <phantomcircuit> to split network time for two areas of the network you'd need to control a significant % of nodes
 649 2011-05-24 03:36:30 <phantomcircuit> probably around 98%
 650 2011-05-24 03:36:38 <gmaxwell> yea the splitting is hard, you've got me there.
 651 2011-05-24 03:36:38 <jrmithdobbs> basically the /16 limitation that was added to increase reliability opens the network up to this
 652 2011-05-24 03:37:04 <phantomcircuit> gmaxwell, well only if you're not very clever
 653 2011-05-24 03:37:05 <phantomcircuit> hehe
 654 2011-05-24 03:37:14 <gmaxwell> but you don't need to control much, as mentioned you only need 100 IPs or so
 655 2011-05-24 03:37:24 <jrmithdobbs> aka, tor
 656 2011-05-24 03:37:27 <gmaxwell> phantomcircuit: the spliting while also trying to connect to all the peers of the hidden nodes.
 657 2011-05-24 03:37:45 <gmaxwell> they can be on the same /24 for all the time code cares
 658 2011-05-24 03:37:56 <jrmithdobbs> ya, finding the peers of mtgox and such is the hard part
 659 2011-05-24 03:38:05 <jrmithdobbs> and if that's the hardest part i think it's a real problem

 688 2011-05-24 03:43:46 <phantomcircuit> jrmithdobbs, if that's your goal then sophisticated timing attacks are a total waste of time
 689 2011-05-24 03:43:51 <phantomcircuit> you could trivially DoS the network
 690 2011-05-24 03:44:02 <phantomcircuit> seriously you could do it with a single 100mbps server
 691 2011-05-24 03:44:04 <phantomcircuit> no problem
 692 2011-05-24 03:44:04 <sherpacore> (but by that logic a 66% splinter off the original 66% group could usurp 1/3 of the conspiracy)
 693 2011-05-24 03:44:10 <jrmithdobbs> phantomcircuit: yes but this is a builtin limitation of the protocol, not an issue with the current implementation

 723 2011-05-24 04:00:09 <gmaxwell> sherpacore: it would mean nodes with boinked clocks would be forwarding the wrong blockchain frequently all on their own with no attack
 724 2011-05-24 04:00:21 <gmaxwell> (e.g. no intentional attack at least)
 725 2011-05-24 04:01:31 <sherpacore> i think its highly theoretical without any practical app... given the pools use system time and only talk to trusted hosts.. but a client without sufficient guards could be subtly messed with - the cost of doing it wouldnt be worth it tho heh
 726 2011-05-24 04:03:03 <jrmithdobbs> sherpacore: what cost? boredom and a tor client?
 727 2011-05-24 04:03:27 <gmaxwell> sherpacore: well they're defended by normal good practices: wait until you get many confirmed before doing anything you might regret.
 728 2011-05-24 04:04:11 <jrmithdobbs> gmaxwell: this kind of redefines  how many confirmations are safe to rely though
 729 2011-05-24 04:04:21 <jrmithdobbs> gmaxwell: taking it from to 6 to at least 13
 730 2011-05-24 04:04:45 <gmaxwell> does it? the attacker has to mine all the confirm blocks too, while keeping the attack up.
 731 2011-05-24 04:04:46 <jrmithdobbs> gmaxwell: and that's assuming hash power hasn't increased significantly since last diff change. pretty big assumption
 732 2011-05-24 04:05:21 <jrmithdobbs> gmaxwell: that's just a race condition, do it enough times and you get lucky

 736 2011-05-24 04:06:29 <gmaxwell> well thats another obvious improvement, network health checks inthe client, and a paranoid mode that leave tx as unconfirmed if it thinks the network is unhealthy.

 741 2011-05-24 04:07:58 <jrmithdobbs> that would help, but it doesn't address the fact that you could disturb txn processing during those times
 742 2011-05-24 04:08:03 <gmaxwell> every current difficulty invalid time is a really expensive warning that something is wrong wrong wrong.
 743 2011-05-24 04:08:08 <jrmithdobbs> at least to some specific segment of the network
 744 2011-05-24 04:08:25 <gmaxwell> yea but you could flood the same node right off the network.
 745 2011-05-24 04:08:35 <gmaxwell> bitcoind has a bunch of fairly obvious DOS vectors too.
 746 2011-05-24 04:09:10 <jrmithdobbs> just throw a decent ammount of legit miners without the async-io rpc patches, for instance
 747 2011-05-24 04:09:13 <jrmithdobbs> lol

 749 2011-05-24 04:09:56 <sherpacore> seems like with +-70 you get a 140 minute window to feed the victim phony blocks.. if you have 50% hashpower, you can send him 7 confirms.. so deepbit could probably empty out mtgox in a couple hours heh
 750 2011-05-24 04:10:00 <gmaxwell> e.g. if bad network health is mostly detected based on valid difficulty but invalid time blocks— thats far too expensive to fake as a DOS attack.
 751 2011-05-24 04:10:34 <sherpacore> pump up everyone +70, create a block thats 70+120 = 190  which is+260 from the victims view (so he needs 140 minutes till he accepts it)
 752 2011-05-24 04:11:08 <gmaxwell> well, as mentioned paranoid peering practice probably make it impossible for that particular target.
 753 2011-05-24 04:11:19 <jrmithdobbs> ya mtgox is a bad example
 754 2011-05-24 04:11:31 <jrmithdobbs> but joe the plumber accepting bitcoin for his services is not
 755 2011-05-24 04:11:37 redengin has joined
 756 2011-05-24 04:11:43 <sherpacore> during that 140 minutes, you are deepbit sized so you can send 7 confirms.. and then he has a +7 chain vs a +1 chain.. so add another 60 minutes for the victim to resync to the main chain.. thats like 10 confirms in total
 757 2011-05-24 04:11:47 <sherpacore> yeah
 758 2011-05-24 04:12:22 <sherpacore> an unprotected client could theoretically get 10 confirms if hes up against deepbut, and he accepts time offset, and he has open peers
 759 2011-05-24 04:12:34 <gmaxwell> part of the joe plumber solution should be commercial reversal insurance services in any case.
 760 2011-05-24 04:12:56 <gmaxwell> Since he'll want faster than one block confirms for some business, and an insurer could provide for that.
 761 2011-05-24 04:13:34 <gmaxwell> as a side effect he'll also guard against a lot of these attacks.

 763 2011-05-24 04:14:50 <sherpacore> for the full on attack, you have to up the rest of the network's time.. so you need to be able to upset the other main miners.. they have acl's and system time, so not really possible unless theyre in on it
 764 2011-05-24 04:16:29 <sherpacore> otherwise you have just a 70 minute window to feed phony confirms... so you can do 3-4 maybe if youre deepbit

 769 2011-05-24 04:19:26 BlueMatt has joined
 770 2011-05-24 04:21:42 <sherpacore> but if you have many trials... say 1,000, your chances are better of doubling your phony chain... if you are attacking an exchange and they have a few billion, the expected returns are high heh

 772 2011-05-24 04:22:13 <gmaxwell> the fact that time is only taken on connect complicates this I think.

 774 2011-05-24 04:22:43 <gmaxwell> even if you flood target's guard with connects you can't move his time until he reconnects to it in any cas.e
 775 2011-05-24 04:22:54 <gmaxwell> agreed.

 817 2011-05-24 04:34:41 <sherpacore> hmm
 818 2011-05-24 04:35:03 <jrmithdobbs> err you know what i mean
 819 2011-05-24 04:35:14 <sherpacore> is that in rpc.cpp where it constructs the version msg
 820 2011-05-24 04:35:28 <jrmithdobbs> no it's in net.cpp
 821 2011-05-24 04:36:38 <jrmithdobbs> gmaxwell: that looks to be more a bug/oversight though, it really should be binding to 0.0.0.0:8333 and :::8333
 822 2011-05-24 04:37:50 <gmaxwell> well with v6 anyone with a v4 address can run your node out of ram eventually. ;)
 823 2011-05-24 04:38:28 <sherpacore> if it takes the adjustedtime when sending version, then the victim is going to slightly adjust his peers when he versions them, but probably not by a large amt
 824 2011-05-24 04:38:30 <gmaxwell> just by connecting once from every IP in a 6to4 /64 and getting an entry added to the seen IP set.
 825 2011-05-24 04:38:33 <sherpacore> the bitcoin code is awesome
 826 2011-05-24 04:39:23 <sherpacore> seems like its easy to add stuff. the obejct model is really well designed
 827 2011-05-24 04:39:33 <jrmithdobbs> starting to wonder if satoshi is hiding in shame ;P
 828 2011-05-24 04:39:49 <gmaxwell> pshaw. well, I think it's pretty readable.
 829 2011-05-24 04:40:01 <gmaxwell> At least we can answer these questions without much work, and mostly reach right conclusions.
 830 2011-05-24 04:40:11 <sherpacore> it uses iterators so no worrying about buffer overflows and the like which is nice
 831 2011-05-24 04:40:45 <gmaxwell> I skimmed through all of it before getting on IRC and blabbing about bitcoin and didn't have any difficulty doing it. (though I didn't understand a fair bit, and didn't read it that critically)
 832 2011-05-24 04:41:14 <sherpacore> bitcon is perfect!
 833 2011-05-24 04:41:29 <sherpacore> looking up the source gives me some confidence to buy more.. its rock solid
 834 2011-05-24 04:42:12 <jrmithdobbs> freudian slip or intentional commentary? ha
 835 2011-05-24 04:42:20 <jrmithdobbs> 23:34 < sherpacore> bitcon is perfect!

 837 2011-05-24 04:42:31 <jrmithdobbs> heh
 838 2011-05-24 04:43:38 <sherpacore> anyway i dont think timing can be abused, except in a hyper theoretical sense..  seems like the 2h window for accepting/rejecting a block should just be based on localtime, then the only consequence is youll lag behind and take longer to get confirmations if your system clock is way behind
 839 2011-05-24 04:43:47 <sherpacore> or make it +2h from the median time of the past 11
 840 2011-05-24 04:44:07 <sherpacore> min(real+2h, median+2h)
 841 2011-05-24 04:46:01 <sherpacore> that way everyone excepts the block because the only criteria it cant be more than >2h the median  (even if it really took longer, the chain acts like a drifting clock that adjust slowly to prevent abuse)
 842 2011-05-24 04:46:25 bushing has joined
 843 2011-05-24 04:46:50 redengin has joined
 844 2011-05-24 04:47:57 <sherpacore> that is, the criteria for new block timestamp is 0-2h from the median11..
 845 2011-05-24 04:48:33 <sherpacore> so even if your nettime is pushed down 70 minutes, you will still accept the same blocks everyone else does based on the median
 846 2011-05-24 04:49:05 <sherpacore> and if youre pushed up, you cant be fooled into accepting a block no one else would (since everyone is pegged to the median)
 847 2011-05-24 04:49:31 <sherpacore> so it seems like just making it symmetrical would fix any discrimination based on differing times
 848 2011-05-24 04:50:34 <sherpacore> if mining power drops.. then the time has to decay 2 hours for every 11 blocks...
 849 2011-05-24 04:51:03 <sherpacore> so the difficulty is adjusted 5 times slower than it would be or something
 850 2011-05-24 04:51:41 <sherpacore> you could have it back off like Tcp.. median+2h for 11... then median+4h....

 859 2011-05-24 05:00:24 <sherpacore> be based on median of past blocks...

 893 2011-05-24 05:41:06 <jrmithdobbs> http://blockexplorer.com/tx/9eb16c3af37b0f341dc4bd04b740dc5fa56c3ba3db2ba452f388b46518a36706
 894 2011-05-24 05:41:12 <jrmithdobbs> it went through?
 895 2011-05-24 05:41:19 <bushing> [22:31:51] <bushing> the first transaction in the tx log is visible on the network but the last one isn't
 896 2011-05-24 05:41:29 <bushing> those are the last 2 txns in wallet.dat
 897 2011-05-24 05:41:37 <jrmithdobbs> well fuck dude just paste the right txn id
 898 2011-05-24 05:41:49 <jrmithdobbs> instead of making me scroll through the shittiest pastebin site ever
 899 2011-05-24 05:41:52 <bushing> [22:32:38] <bushing> so 2d3029f11… never hit the network
 900 2011-05-24 05:42:30 <jrmithdobbs> good luck, 'night
 901 2011-05-24 05:42:34 <bushing> thanks
 902 2011-05-24 05:43:46 <phantomcircuit> bushing, the resend timer is set to every 30 minutes
 903 2011-05-24 05:43:47 <phantomcircuit> so
 904 2011-05-24 05:43:50 <phantomcircuit> just wait
 905 2011-05-24 05:43:58 <phantomcircuit> make sure you're connected to the network and wait
 906 2011-05-24 05:44:05 <phantomcircuit> dont restart the client
 907 2011-05-24 05:44:12 <phantomcircuit> since it's not smart enough to save the timer
 908 2011-05-24 05:44:51 <bushing> i let it sit 8 hours, it's 22:37:18 local time here
 909 2011-05-24 05:44:54 <bushing> (connected, etc)
 910 2011-05-24 05:45:23 <bushing> so that's why I wonder if it's simply getting rejected
 911 2011-05-24 05:46:31 <ne0futur> I d go to sleep and see tomorrow if I were you
 912 2011-05-24 05:46:54 <ne0futur> and go back to a backup of my wallet if its not better tomorrow
 913 2011-05-24 05:47:31 <bushing> I've done that; that was just my most recent attempt :( I've now gone through the process of sending a test transaction, waiting a couple of days, then trying to repair my wallet and trying again 3 times now
 914 2011-05-24 05:48:01 <bushing> should the client get any feedback if it sends an invalid txn?
 915 2011-05-24 05:49:21 <BurtyBB> hi bushing, didn't expect to see you here :)

1100 2011-05-24 09:28:28 <da2ce7> sipa, how is your wallet cypto going?
1101 2011-05-24 09:28:37 <sipa> BlueMatt is doing that
1102 2011-05-24 09:29:46 TheAncientGoat has joined
1103 2011-05-24 09:29:55 <da2ce7> ah using the ECDH insted of RSA?
1104 2011-05-24 09:30:09 <sipa> BlueMatt's implementation uses AES256
1105 2011-05-24 09:30:15 <sipa> no public key cryptography
1106 2011-05-24 09:30:25 <da2ce7> gah.
1107 2011-05-24 09:30:37 <da2ce7> what you were researching was far seperior.

1110 2011-05-24 09:31:52 <sipa> it had one disadvantage: someone with write access to your wallet could add his own keys in your key pool
1111 2011-05-24 09:37:42 <da2ce7> so you have your all your ECDH-DSA keys signed by and encripted by a master ECDH-DSA key... you have to enter your passowrd too generate new addresses also.
1112 2011-05-24 09:38:01 <diki> sipa, are you the person maintaining bitcoin?
1113 2011-05-24 09:38:19 <da2ce7> it gets kinda complicated...
1114 2011-05-24 09:38:37 <da2ce7> but no secure system is single layed.

1128 2011-05-24 09:52:58 <diki> to be honest with bitcoins i was able to buy a cooler for my cpu, buy a domain and a bit more to buy another 5850
1129 2011-05-24 09:53:23 <mtrlt> with bitcoins i have been able to buy 4 6990s
1130 2011-05-24 09:53:55 <diki> and i like got 3-4 times more monay than the actual power used

1138 2011-05-24 09:56:49 <diki> My CPU is 125w tdp, and gpu is 151 tdp at stock which it is = ~275 watts + some other peripherals = ~300

1143 2011-05-24 09:57:35 <mtrlt> around 850 watts for 2x6990 at 910mhz
1144 2011-05-24 09:57:54 <diki> another 5850 would add me like 151 watts more

1148 2011-05-24 10:02:44 <Diablo-D3> I dont recommend more than 2x6990 on a single board unless you're power modding
1149 2011-05-24 10:03:13 <diki> why not?
1150 2011-05-24 10:03:26 <diki> afaik, there no multi-board mobos
1151 2011-05-24 10:03:31 <diki> dual-socket, yeah, but not dual mobo
1152 2011-05-24 10:03:42 <Diablo-D3> why not? because ATX shafted you.
1153 2011-05-24 10:03:47 <Diablo-D3> or actually, AMD technically did
1154 2011-05-24 10:04:08 <diki> if you are talking about me damaging my card\
1155 2011-05-24 10:04:28 <diki> that was a combo of high OC, high voltage, small case and high temps
1156 2011-05-24 10:04:33 <diki> I think at least...
1157 2011-05-24 10:04:46 <diki> however it is stable if i mine at 98% gpu usage
1158 2011-05-24 10:04:49 <diki> hasn't crashed once
1159 2011-05-24 10:04:59 <Diablo-D3> diki: no
1160 2011-05-24 10:05:01 <Diablo-D3> damaging the mobo
1161 2011-05-24 10:05:04 <diki> But if i load it with OCCT using linpack...then oh man..
1162 2011-05-24 10:05:24 <Diablo-D3> 6990s pull more than 75w off the slot rail at stock
1163 2011-05-24 10:05:26 <diki> the only way a mobo can be damaged if it's a 4+1 phase and you stick a thuban there and OC it to 4Ghz
1164 2011-05-24 10:05:33 <Diablo-D3> see above.
1165 2011-05-24 10:05:40 <diki> and the slot only provides 75 watts
1166 2011-05-24 10:05:45 <diki> you cant pull mroe than that
1167 2011-05-24 10:05:47 <Diablo-D3> not quiiite.
1168 2011-05-24 10:05:48 <diki> *more
1169 2011-05-24 10:05:52 <diki> Yes quiite
1170 2011-05-24 10:06:07 <diki> everything else is pulled from the power connectors
1171 2011-05-24 10:06:24 <Diablo-D3> okay, if the ATX 12v pins supply x, and you pull more than y*4, where y is a slot, and y is 75 watts....
1172 2011-05-24 10:06:31 <diki> which in a 6990 is 1x 6-pin and 1x 8 pin or 2x8pin
1173 2011-05-24 10:06:32 <Diablo-D3> and y > x
1174 2011-05-24 10:06:35 <Diablo-D3> then you're fucked.
1175 2011-05-24 10:06:56 <Diablo-D3> diki: 6990 is more than 375 stock. it has 2 8 pins. each is 150.
1176 2011-05-24 10:07:22 <diki> so you burned a 6990 or what?
1177 2011-05-24 10:07:37 <Diablo-D3> no, the mobo will be damaged, pay attention
1178 2011-05-24 10:07:44 <diki> has it been proved?
1179 2011-05-24 10:07:47 <diki> Is this just a theory?
1180 2011-05-24 10:07:49 <Diablo-D3> an ATX24 plug can only supply about 150w.
1181 2011-05-24 10:08:05 <Diablo-D3> a 6990 pulls 75 or more off one rail.
1182 2011-05-24 10:08:09 <Diablo-D3> what is 75 and 75.

1185 2011-05-24 10:08:43 <Diablo-D3> this is basic math, diki
1186 2011-05-24 10:08:54 <Diablo-D3> 2 slots at max load is already hitting the maximum
1187 2011-05-24 10:09:11 <diki> <Diablo-D3> what is 75 and 75.<- There is no quesrion mark, thus not a question
1188 2011-05-24 10:09:19 <diki> It could be a rhetorical qustion
1189 2011-05-24 10:09:21 <Diablo-D3> nope, it is a statement.
1190 2011-05-24 10:09:34 <Diablo-D3> 6990 + 6990 = max atx24 load on 12v.
1191 2011-05-24 10:09:49 <Diablo-D3> dont add any more cards.
1192 2011-05-24 10:10:05 <diki> so you are saying i shouldnt buy another 5850 for my mobo?
1193 2011-05-24 10:10:11 <Diablo-D3> bingo.
1194 2011-05-24 10:10:21 <diki> I am still gonna buy tho
1195 2011-05-24 10:10:31 <Diablo-D3> yes, and you will be like two other people in here
1196 2011-05-24 10:10:43 <mtrlt> diki has 2x6990?
1197 2011-05-24 10:10:55 <diki> i *has 1x5850

1202 2011-05-24 10:11:17 <mtrlt> :P
1203 2011-05-24 10:11:33 <diki> my mobo has 2x pci-e x16 slots
1204 2011-05-24 10:11:39 <diki> one is running at x4 tho
1205 2011-05-24 10:11:42 <Diablo-D3> mtrlt: no, he asked
1206 2011-05-24 10:11:45 <Diablo-D3> [05:56:04] <Diablo-D3> I dont recommend more than 2x6990 on a single board unless you're power modding
1207 2011-05-24 10:11:45 <Diablo-D3> [05:56:33] <diki> why not?
1208 2011-05-24 10:12:01 <diki> a 5850 is 151w tdp
1209 2011-05-24 10:12:02 <mtrlt> yea but why did you say that line :P
1210 2011-05-24 10:12:13 <diki> that one crappy watt can't possibly destroy a mobo
1211 2011-05-24 10:12:17 <Diablo-D3> [05:50:55] <mtrlt> around 850 watts for 2x6990 at 910mhz
1212 2011-05-24 10:12:30 <mtrlt> and no-one talked about having more than 2x6990 :(
1213 2011-05-24 10:12:37 <Diablo-D3> diki: no, 5850 has a 6 and an 8 usually, and its pulling almost all the power off the plugs
1214 2011-05-24 10:12:52 <diki> a 5850 has 2x6pin connectors
1215 2011-05-24 10:12:58 <Diablo-D3> mine has 2 and 8.
1216 2011-05-24 10:13:04 <diki> then you are screwed
1217 2011-05-24 10:13:15 <Diablo-D3> on the contrary, its a much better card
1218 2011-05-24 10:13:15 <diki> Although mine is reference
1219 2011-05-24 10:13:30 <Diablo-D3> 2x6 gives you 150 total.
1220 2011-05-24 10:13:46 <diki> and the max tdp of a 5850 is?

1222 2011-05-24 10:14:00 <Diablo-D3> 151 @ 725
1223 2011-05-24 10:14:11 <Diablo-D3> any additional power comes off the mobo
1224 2011-05-24 10:14:27 <diki> if 2x6pin give 150 watts total
1225 2011-05-24 10:14:43 <diki> then, those power connectors are already powering the card
1226 2011-05-24 10:14:51 <Diablo-D3> yes, but anything OVER that comes from the mobo
1227 2011-05-24 10:14:52 <diki> if not, then that means there is a small headroom for OC
1228 2011-05-24 10:15:03 <Diablo-D3> mines 765 factory stock
1229 2011-05-24 10:15:15 <Diablo-D3> and 6+8 gives you 225

1233 2011-05-24 10:16:30 <diki> well, VC MSI R5850 TWIN FROZR II is 725 mhz but it's a bit over my budget
1234 2011-05-24 10:16:43 <diki> so i might get the asus one which is 765mhz, but
1235 2011-05-24 10:17:09 <diki> However, in crossfire if i choose to do, the faster card downclocks itself to the settings of the slower card
1236 2011-05-24 10:17:32 <diki> even if i don't i may downclock on my own

1276 2011-05-24 10:39:22 <Diablo-D3> sipa: then they can stop using java

1283 2011-05-24 10:43:26 <Diablo-D3> because its over 9000
1284 2011-05-24 10:43:53 <da2ce7> because you shouldn't encrypt and sign with the same key.

1287 2011-05-24 10:45:20 <sipa> bitcoin doesn't use encryption itself
1288 2011-05-24 10:45:28 <da2ce7> you also need a ecdh, private key...
1289 2011-05-24 10:45:50 <sipa> read http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Integrated_Encryption_Scheme
1290 2011-05-24 10:45:51 <BlueMatt> sipa: btw, the only actual issue with wx was string conversion between wxString, std::string, wxChar, char
1291 2011-05-24 10:45:55 <BlueMatt> (and string literal crap)
1292 2011-05-24 10:46:01 <diki> tbh i don't understand all thse pub,private,intimate keys at all
1293 2011-05-24 10:46:37 <sipa> da2ce7: read http://forum.bitcoin.org/index.php?topic=7830.0?
1294 2011-05-24 10:47:23 <diki> so basically you are all working on encrypting the wallet and making sure no one can fetch it via memory either?
1295 2011-05-24 10:47:52 <sipa> da2ce7: there are 3 types of keys in the system: the master key, the per-key ephemeral key, the real ecdsa keys
1296 2011-05-24 10:48:28 <sipa> BlueMatt: seen my comment in the forum?
1297 2011-05-24 10:48:31 <BlueMatt> sipa: you cant override functions based on return in c++ can you?
1298 2011-05-24 10:48:42 <sipa> ah, that's the problem
1299 2011-05-24 10:48:46 <BlueMatt> (as that is whats required)
1300 2011-05-24 10:49:11 <BlueMatt> yea wx2.9 converts gracefully automatically, you have to do it yourself in 2.8
1301 2011-05-24 10:49:29 <BlueMatt> and _ needs to return std::string, wxString, and char* depending on the situation
1302 2011-05-24 10:49:31 <sipa> where does _ come from now?
1303 2011-05-24 10:49:34 <BlueMatt> wx
1304 2011-05-24 10:49:41 <BlueMatt> (or util.h ifndef GUI)
1305 2011-05-24 10:49:48 <sipa> but it does string->string?
1306 2011-05-24 10:49:56 <BlueMatt> no wxString -> wxString
1307 2011-05-24 10:50:00 <sipa> ah
1308 2011-05-24 10:50:21 <BlueMatt> or...I think its string-> wxString
1309 2011-05-24 10:50:31 <BlueMatt> no, sorry its char* -> wxString
1310 2011-05-24 10:50:39 <sipa> and GetTranslationChar?
1311 2011-05-24 10:50:54 <BlueMatt> for when you need to return a char*

1314 2011-05-24 10:51:31 <BlueMatt> (and the crazy chars showing up, I think, is just crap because I stupidly didnt read and did a bunch of .mb_str() on stuff that isnt temporary)
1315 2011-05-24 10:51:35 <BlueMatt> hi S
1316 2011-05-24 10:51:39 <BlueMatt> Sage:
1317 2011-05-24 10:51:49 <da2ce7> so ECIES is justa more effecent way of doing the same thing as I did with two sets of keys.
1318 2011-05-24 10:52:43 <Sage> has it ever happened to you that your screen got distorter after setting memory to 400mhz on 6990?
1319 2011-05-24 10:52:48 <sipa> ECIES = ECDH on master key + ephemeral key + symmetric encryption using the hash of the resulting agreed pubkey as key

1323 2011-05-24 10:53:15 <BlueMatt> are we still on that encryption scheme?
1324 2011-05-24 10:53:18 <diki> they should change it to a comedian site
1325 2011-05-24 10:53:48 <sipa> BlueMatt: don't bother :)

1327 2011-05-24 10:55:50 <sipa> BlueMatt: hmm, maybe you could make some utility functions str, wxstr, cstr that all have 3 versions, taking all combinations?
1328 2011-05-24 10:56:05 <sipa> meh, nvm
1329 2011-05-24 10:56:13 <BlueMatt> I pretty much do...just different names
1330 2011-05-24 10:56:23 <BlueMatt> but not wxstr, I just use _ for that
1331 2011-05-24 10:56:26 <sipa> ok
1332 2011-05-24 10:56:43 <sipa> but not all strings that need this conversion, need to be translated, right?
1333 2011-05-24 10:56:57 <BlueMatt> yep, thats what _T() is for
1334 2011-05-24 10:57:10 <sipa> i should have studied your patch better :)
1335 2011-05-24 10:57:10 <BlueMatt> string literals still need converted via macros to wx crap

1337 2011-05-24 10:57:28 <BlueMatt> and the other stuff needs something like wxString(strThing.c_str(), wxConvUTF8)
1338 2011-05-24 10:57:35 <BlueMatt> or string(wxString.mb_str())
1339 2011-05-24 10:57:49 <BlueMatt> (the second one returns a temp pointer, which I think is where a fucked up a ton
1340 2011-05-24 10:58:06 <diki> BlueMatt: and i thought you said you didn't know C/C++ :)
1341 2011-05-24 10:58:12 <diki> that's knowing a lot
1342 2011-05-24 10:58:40 <BlueMatt> diki: thats almost all from here: http://wiki.wxwidgets.org/Converting_everything_to_and_from_wxString
1343 2011-05-24 10:58:41 <BlueMatt> :)
1344 2011-05-24 10:59:19 <diki> i still have no idea what macros is
1345 2011-05-24 10:59:24 <diki> apart from a macro picture
1346 2011-05-24 10:59:41 <BlueMatt> oh, thats just when you see #define...
1347 2011-05-24 11:00:01 <BlueMatt> like #define FUNCTION(thing) otherFunctionThatActuallyGetsCalled()
1348 2011-05-24 11:00:17 <diki> isn't define used to make constants?
1349 2011-05-24 11:00:18 <BlueMatt> which I should probably have done largely instead of the wxString conv crap
1350 2011-05-24 11:01:03 <BlueMatt> define can be used for macros and constants which can be tested with #ifdef/#if
1351 2011-05-24 11:01:06 <BlueMatt> but not with if()
1352 2011-05-24 11:01:16 <BlueMatt> those constants are static const int ...
1353 2011-05-24 11:01:37 <diki> isn't #ifdef used on compile time to determine some stuff
1354 2011-05-24 11:01:43 <sipa> yes
1355 2011-05-24 11:01:44 <BlueMatt> yep
1356 2011-05-24 11:01:53 <BlueMatt> (that is all out my ass and may all be wrong)
1357 2011-05-24 11:01:59 <diki> then it doesnt actually do checks when the program has been compiled and you run it
1358 2011-05-24 11:02:12 <BlueMatt> yea
1359 2011-05-24 11:02:13 <sipa> BlueMatt: #define'd things don't exist at all at compile time, they have been resolved in the preprocessor stage
1360 2011-05-24 11:02:24 <BlueMatt> if() if for run, #if is for compile
1361 2011-05-24 11:02:26 <sipa> they don't really have a time
1362 2011-05-24 11:02:41 <BlueMatt> meh, I call preprocessor compile
1363 2011-05-24 11:02:42 <sipa> *typw
1364 2011-05-24 11:02:53 <BlueMatt> if its running in make, its compile as far as Im concerned
1365 2011-05-24 11:02:59 <sipa> ok sure, but still, they are very different from a const static int variable
1366 2011-05-24 11:03:11 <BlueMatt> yes, veryt
1367 2011-05-24 11:08:03 <diki> i dont understand how inline assembly works
1368 2011-05-24 11:08:14 <diki> so you have a function and inside it some assembly
1369 2011-05-24 11:08:23 <diki> how the hell do they intereact together...
1370 2011-05-24 11:08:28 <diki> *interactr
1371 2011-05-24 11:08:32 * diki ...
1372 2011-05-24 11:08:47 <sipa> simple: the compiler copies the assembly to the output
1373 2011-05-24 11:08:52 <sipa> instead of compiling it

1381 2011-05-24 11:26:15 <beppu> diki: it's been a while since I've done assembly, but the variables from the C/C++ side should just be addresses in memory that the inline asm should be able to resolve.
1382 2011-05-24 11:28:48 <beppu> diki: Also, the contents of the stack are predictable so there is another set of data the asm side can easily access.
1383 2011-05-24 11:30:20 <beppu> diki: There are rules for how function parameters are supposed to be pushed to the stack.

1389 2011-05-24 11:32:41 <diki> quite a lot when i tried to unpack Crysis2.exe
1390 2011-05-24 11:32:43 <beppu> Was it gcc -S that outputs asm?

1392 2011-05-24 11:33:36 <beppu> thx.  it has been aa while
1393 2011-05-24 11:34:50 <diki> 64bit assembly addressed the registers with RAX rather than EAX, right?
1394 2011-05-24 11:35:01 <diki> rax,rbs etc
1395 2011-05-24 11:35:25 <beppu> my experience ended in the 32bit era
1396 2011-05-24 11:35:26 <lfm> diki dissassembled binary is actually quite different from compiler asm output
1397 2011-05-24 11:35:35 <diki> how so?
1398 2011-05-24 11:36:00 <lfm> well the variable names and even line numbers of the C source are in the asm file
1399 2011-05-24 11:36:13 <beppu> more readable
1400 2011-05-24 11:36:14 <BlueMatt> can I get people to test: https://github.com/TheBlueMatt/bitcoin/tree/wx2.8

1418 2011-05-24 11:45:23 <sipa> BlueMatt: yes, but that's maybe because it 'detects' a lot of strings changed, and redraws them
1419 2011-05-24 11:45:33 <BlueMatt> it very well could be

1481 2011-05-24 12:30:32 <diki> Cause i don't have any other machines?
1482 2011-05-24 12:30:33 <BlueMatt> why would you run any server on windows?
1483 2011-05-24 12:30:37 <BlueMatt> vm
1484 2011-05-24 12:30:45 Julia_Gillard is now known as da2ce7
1485 2011-05-24 12:31:09 <lfm> or is mswin in another vm?
1486 2011-05-24 12:31:23 <diki> Windows7->VM->ubuntu
1487 2011-05-24 12:31:36 <BlueMatt> should be ubuntu -> VM -> win7
1488 2011-05-24 12:31:36 <lfm> oh you poor boy
1489 2011-05-24 12:32:05 <sipa> oh ok, so the pool server runs on ubuntu
1490 2011-05-24 12:32:06 <sipa> nvm
1491 2011-05-24 12:32:26 <diki> the problem is that the machine has only 360mb ram left for it
1492 2011-05-24 12:32:33 <diki> and Bitcoind happily takes 70
1493 2011-05-24 12:32:47 <lfm> use swap
1494 2011-05-24 12:32:58 <diki> Swap=load on hdd
1495 2011-05-24 12:33:05 <lfm> ya
1496 2011-05-24 12:33:18 <diki> And windows7 will start writing on hdd if ram usage >=75%
1497 2011-05-24 12:33:20 <BlueMatt> well if you are going to try to run it on linux on a vm on win7 you are going to have to
1498 2011-05-24 12:33:24 <beppu> buy more ram?
1499 2011-05-24 12:33:25 <diki> so both OSes writing in swap=bad idea
1500 2011-05-24 12:33:28 <BlueMatt> why do you have to run win on there?
1501 2011-05-24 12:33:39 <diki> Games, notepad++ everything?
1502 2011-05-24 12:33:50 <BlueMatt> why are you running a pool server on a desktop?
1503 2011-05-24 12:33:51 <sipa> games are a good reason
1504 2011-05-24 12:33:58 <beppu> sad penguin is sad
1505 2011-05-24 12:33:58 <sipa> but indeed
1506 2011-05-24 12:34:09 <diki> BlueMatt: where else?
1507 2011-05-24 12:34:15 <BlueMatt> on a server?
1508 2011-05-24 12:34:21 <diki> Money?
1509 2011-05-24 12:34:25 <diki> I don't have any
1510 2011-05-24 12:34:27 <ersi> Hahah
1511 2011-05-24 12:34:28 <BlueMatt> vps are cheap
1512 2011-05-24 12:34:29 <diki> So, money?
1513 2011-05-24 12:34:37 <beppu> hence bitcoin
1514 2011-05-24 12:34:38 <ersi> Man, you just made me spill some coffee
1515 2011-05-24 12:34:48 <ersi> Now you owe me
1516 2011-05-24 12:34:49 <sipa> what's the audience of your pool server?
1517 2011-05-24 12:34:50 <lfm> sorry
1518 2011-05-24 12:35:03 <ersi> sipa: equally smart people, of course!
1519 2011-05-24 12:35:04 <diki> the audience? i don't remember making a tv show
1520 2011-05-24 12:35:14 <lfm> sipa his audience is people who want to give him btc
1521 2011-05-24 12:35:15 <BlueMatt> who will be using it?
1522 2011-05-24 12:35:21 <ersi> diki: Do you run your miners in the other VMs?
1523 2011-05-24 12:35:30 <sipa> who are your intended users
1524 2011-05-24 12:35:32 <diki> ersi: why would i?
1525 2011-05-24 12:35:37 <ersi> diki: Why wouldn't you?
1526 2011-05-24 12:35:39 <diki> my intended users are everyone, sipa
1527 2011-05-24 12:35:43 <ersi> I mean, you could!
1528 2011-05-24 12:35:47 <BlueMatt> also how are you gaming on a machine with 300m
1529 2011-05-24 12:35:54 <diki> but...even 400 users are too much for the desktop
1530 2011-05-24 12:35:58 <lfm> ersi that wouldnt make much sense tho really
1531 2011-05-24 12:35:58 <sipa> BlueMatt: his VM with the pool server in has 300M
1532 2011-05-24 12:36:01 <ersi> I bet that's just the amount of RAM he dedicated to the virtual machine
1533 2011-05-24 12:36:02 <sipa> not the machine itself
1534 2011-05-24 12:36:08 <BlueMatt> diki: you cant run a server for general people on a desktop, not enough uptime
1535 2011-05-24 12:36:18 <diki> my PC is on 24/7
1536 2011-05-24 12:36:19 dregath has quit (Quit: Page closed)

1603 2011-05-24 12:44:45 <diki> The fact i've been running Win7 for more than a year without having any problems...says a lot

1605 2011-05-24 12:45:00 <BlueMatt> Ive been running vms longer than that and no problems

1633 2011-05-24 12:48:01 <sipa> win7 is comparable or better than XP, i agree, btw
1634 2011-05-24 12:48:02 <diki> But he is very poor and has a ~15 year old thinkpad
1635 2011-05-24 12:48:02 <BlueMatt> I have no problem with m$, but there is a certain amount of common sense...
1636 2011-05-24 12:48:08 <TheKid_> diki: dear god, why
1637 2011-05-24 12:48:18 <ersi> This guy, right there, has no common sense
1638 2011-05-24 12:48:20 <diki> 700mhz processor and only 4mb of dedi vram
1639 2011-05-24 12:48:21 <sipa> vista before the SP's definitely wasn't though
1640 2011-05-24 12:48:24 <luke-jr> diki: I'd use Win 3.11 before WinME
1641 2011-05-24 12:48:33 <BlueMatt> sipa: vista still isnt, really
1642 2011-05-24 12:48:40 <TheKid_> I'd be using archlinux :P

1644 2011-05-24 12:48:43 <lfm> diki you should be kind to him and reformat his disk with ubuntu
1645 2011-05-24 12:48:44 <TheKid_> or something
1646 2011-05-24 12:48:54 <luke-jr> lfm: LOL fail
1647 2011-05-24 12:48:54 <TheKid_> lfm: ubuntu is way too bloated
1648 2011-05-24 12:49:00 <sipa> BlueMatt: never had any complaints about vista actually (though i only boot it up once every few months to play a game)
1649 2011-05-24 12:49:01 <luke-jr> lfm: Ubuntu is so bloated it could never run on that
1650 2011-05-24 12:49:06 <sipa> but no complaints about stability
1651 2011-05-24 12:49:17 <TheKid_> though on the other hand, thinkpads are built like tanks
1652 2011-05-24 12:49:18 <sipa> (and i only installed it with SP2)
1653 2011-05-24 12:49:19 <lfm> xubuntu?

1660 2011-05-24 12:49:52 <sipa> depends a lot on how you use it probably
1661 2011-05-24 12:50:01 <sipa> i can only speak from my experience
1662 2011-05-24 12:50:02 <luke-jr> the *nix world has no problem forcing people to get more and more RAM all the time
1663 2011-05-24 12:50:05 <BlueMatt> yea, just gaming and small use, any os is stable
1664 2011-05-24 12:50:11 <BlueMatt> full time...not so much
1665 2011-05-24 12:50:13 <sipa> BlueMatt: WinME wasn't :D
1666 2011-05-24 12:50:18 <luke-jr> I once ran Gentoo on a 233 MHz laptop

1763 2011-05-24 13:30:57 <TheKid_> can miners use a trimmed blockchain?
1764 2011-05-24 13:31:02 <BlueMatt> yes
1765 2011-05-24 13:31:12 <TheKid_> okay
1766 2011-05-24 13:31:21 <BlueMatt> miners can use trimmed chain, regular users can work with no chain
1767 2011-05-24 13:31:24 <sipa> pruning could just be implemented, it's just throwing away data that's guaranteed not to be used anymore

1770 2011-05-24 13:32:21 <BlueMatt> sipa: in fact, for me its much slower at scrolling/switching tabs on wx2.9 than on 2.8
1771 2011-05-24 13:32:34 <BlueMatt> lags all over the place
1772 2011-05-24 13:32:43 <TheKid_> why would you want to use wx2.8?
1773 2011-05-24 13:32:48 <lfm> sipa: the only problem is new nodes while downloading the block chain try to get everything to confirm
1774 2011-05-24 13:32:54 <BlueMatt> because 2.9 is a developer release
1775 2011-05-24 13:32:54 <diki> Can you guys optimize bitcoin's memory usage?
1776 2011-05-24 13:33:03 <TheKid_> BlueMatt: ah
1777 2011-05-24 13:33:18 <BlueMatt> hence, packaging bitcoin requires 2.8
1778 2011-05-24 13:33:28 <ersi> diki: Only if you stop being a fool and running Bitcoind in a super small Virtual Machine
1779 2011-05-24 13:33:43 <sipa> BlueMatt: here 2.8 is a factor 100 slower than 2.9 or so
1780 2011-05-24 13:33:45 <diki> ersi: I do what i want ;)
1781 2011-05-24 13:33:57 <BlueMatt> sipa: wow, more specific environment details?
1782 2011-05-24 13:34:04 <ersi> But no one is going to optimize bitcoins memory usage until you quit doing that
1783 2011-05-24 13:34:14 <sipa> BlueMatt: it really takes a substantial time to redraw after each scroll, like 0.2s or so
1784 2011-05-24 13:34:31 <BlueMatt> sipa: hm, that happens for me too, but much worse on 2.9

1786 2011-05-24 13:35:07 <diki> ersi: i am not asking only because of that. It's taking equal amounts on windows too
1787 2011-05-24 13:35:13 <BlueMatt> sipa: how many txes?
1788 2011-05-24 13:35:27 <sipa> 137

1931 2011-05-24 14:57:41 <sipa> 15:38:13 < sipa> TheKid_: it's correct, except that coins and transactions are actually the same thing
1932 2011-05-24 14:57:45 <sipa> 15:38:24 < sipa> TheKid_: coins are defined as unredeemed transaction outputs
1933 2011-05-24 14:57:48 <sipa> 15:38:40 < sipa> so each transactions just consumes some coins, and produces new ones

1966 2011-05-24 15:07:32 <djbev> I have a newbie question
1967 2011-05-24 15:08:01 <Sage> shoot
1968 2011-05-24 15:08:03 <djbev> I did my first transfer to my client.
1969 2011-05-24 15:08:10 <djbev> I'm using the Mac OSX client
1970 2011-05-24 15:08:19 <djbev> where are the file for my bitcoins actually located?
1971 2011-05-24 15:08:24 <djbev> I want to copy them to my dropbox
1972 2011-05-24 15:08:41 <Sage> im pretty sure its mentioned somewhere in the wiki
1973 2011-05-24 15:08:45 <Diablo-D3> you only need to copy wallet.dat (while the client is off)
1974 2011-05-24 15:08:52 <Diablo-D3> I forget where it is, but its in your home dir
1975 2011-05-24 15:09:28 <djbev> And does that copy all my coins at once?  Can I leave the copy in my home dir as well?
1976 2011-05-24 15:10:02 <djbev> I was trying to find the client documentation that explained that - but could not locate any good docs.
1977 2011-05-24 15:10:15 <Diablo-D3> it copies all current and future coins
1978 2011-05-24 15:10:20 <djbev> Thanks Diablo / sage
1979 2011-05-24 15:10:56 <djbev> Future coins as well?? so I don't need to keep copying it to dropbox when I get new coins?
1980 2011-05-24 15:11:10 <Diablo-D3> it keeps a list of 100 future addresses used for temporary use
1981 2011-05-24 15:11:35 <djbev> ok, so every 100 transacitons I should recopy...
1982 2011-05-24 15:11:36 <Diablo-D3> only really need to copy wallet.dat every 50 tx
1983 2011-05-24 15:11:44 <Diablo-D3> nope, 50
1984 2011-05-24 15:11:45 <djbev> got it.
1985 2011-05-24 15:11:48 <Diablo-D3> there are instances where it uses 2
1986 2011-05-24 15:11:58 <djbev> ok
1987 2011-05-24 15:12:21 <Sage> may i ask some newbie questions too? :)

1991 2011-05-24 15:13:50 <Sage> or the pc just freezes
1992 2011-05-24 15:14:05 <diki> could be the low mem
1993 2011-05-24 15:14:05 <Diablo-D3> then dont overclock it so high.
1994 2011-05-24 15:14:09 <diki> some cards dont like low mem
1995 2011-05-24 15:14:18 <diki> what kind of freeze?
1996 2011-05-24 15:14:43 <Sage> 830 core was manufactured
1997 2011-05-24 15:14:59 <diki> <diki> what kind of freeze?
1998 2011-05-24 15:15:01 <Diablo-D3> heh
1999 2011-05-24 15:15:02 <Sage> at first just the moving parts get distorted, then the whole screen freezes
2000 2011-05-24 15:15:08 <Diablo-D3> dont underclock then
2001 2011-05-24 15:15:14 <Sage> keyboard wont respond on caps
2002 2011-05-24 15:15:26 <diki> go stock
2003 2011-05-24 15:15:26 <Sage> but it worked just fine yesterday
2004 2011-05-24 15:15:32 <Sage> and im trying to keep the temp as low as possible
2005 2011-05-24 15:15:33 <djbev> also my client is showing 16 confirmations... and that number is going up.... I transferred in 100 bitcoins... does that mean that it will eventually go to 100?
2006 2011-05-24 15:15:43 <Diablo-D3> Sage: the temp needs to be below 85c, thats it
2007 2011-05-24 15:15:50 <diki> it will incr forever
2008 2011-05-24 15:15:52 <Sage> no djbev, it will go much higher

2024 2011-05-24 15:17:06 <Sage> i only bought 23cm fan for indoor cooing
2025 2011-05-24 15:17:09 <Diablo-D3> Sage: yes, and you should have considered the fact 6990s exceed 375 watts when fully loaded
2026 2011-05-24 15:17:15 <Sage> you know the kind you have on table
2027 2011-05-24 15:17:34 <Diablo-D3> Sage: that heat has to go somewhere.
2028 2011-05-24 15:18:03 <Namegduf> Sage: Sounds like you should downclock.
2029 2011-05-24 15:18:06 <djbev> liquid cooling will keep the GPU cool, transfer the heat to an external radiator
2030 2011-05-24 15:18:06 <Sage> i know, the case is fully open, i have 120mm fan on first core directly and 230mm indoor fan blowing the air away from it

2034 2011-05-24 15:18:43 <Diablo-D3> hrm thats not so bad
2035 2011-05-24 15:18:54 <Diablo-D3> and btw, you want gpu clock/3 not /2

2041 2011-05-24 15:19:40 <Sage> the 830 value is manufacture preset
2042 2011-05-24 15:19:53 <Diablo-D3> 400 is not 830/3
2043 2011-05-24 15:19:58 <Sage> oh
2044 2011-05-24 15:20:28 <Sage> someone here said yesterday it craches under 400
2045 2011-05-24 15:20:35 <Diablo-D3> its possible
2046 2011-05-24 15:20:41 <djbev> Sage: the wallet.dat file does not seem to exist on my Mac...  are you sure that is the name?
2047 2011-05-24 15:20:48 <Diablo-D3> underlocking ram only buys you about 10% on your power/thermal budget anyhow
2048 2011-05-24 15:20:55 <Sage> and today it kept crashing on every other set
2049 2011-05-24 15:21:01 <Diablo-D3> djbev: I said that, and yes it is
2050 2011-05-24 15:21:05 <Namegduf> Sage: If it's unstbale just go closer to normal

2061 2011-05-24 15:22:31 <Namegduf> Sage: Then un-downclock it
2062 2011-05-24 15:22:41 <Diablo-D3> quite entirely possible it wont go below half stock ram

2067 2011-05-24 15:23:19 <Sage> gpu 70°C after 15 minutes
2068 2011-05-24 15:23:20 <Diablo-D3> step 2) ????
2069 2011-05-24 15:23:25 <Diablo-D3> step 3) profit
2070 2011-05-24 15:23:26 <Namegduf> Try change. If it works, try bigger change. If it doesn't work, go back to the previous settings.
2071 2011-05-24 15:23:52 <Diablo-D3> and now, for the real kicker

2081 2011-05-24 15:25:57 <diki> mine?
2082 2011-05-24 15:26:02 <Ramen> yup
2083 2011-05-24 15:26:03 <diki> 180 mhash is somewhat feasable
2084 2011-05-24 15:26:51 <Ramen> is there any tweeking you would suggest?
2085 2011-05-24 15:27:07 <Zape_> Anyone hear about the new ATI (AMD) cards anounced today?  Cayman based Firepro V5900 and V7900.  Specially designed to fit into a single slot.
2086 2011-05-24 15:28:04 <diki> yeah
2087 2011-05-24 15:28:56 <diki> but those are cards for design studios
2088 2011-05-24 15:29:02 <diki> not for mainstream nor mining

2090 2011-05-24 15:29:17 <Zape_> Think it is intended to combine with ASUS' new 8 slot barebones.

2097 2011-05-24 15:30:49 <Zape_> Chewing only 150 watts at the same time, should make that a workhorse.
2098 2011-05-24 15:31:10 <diki> my 5850 has 1440
2099 2011-05-24 15:31:35 <uppe> of course it depends on how much punch is packed in those processors
2100 2011-05-24 15:32:10 <diki> Read on the amd site
2101 2011-05-24 15:32:14 <diki> They are for studios
2102 2011-05-24 15:32:26 <sipa> and why does that matter?
2103 2011-05-24 15:32:40 <uppe> they're probably more expensive than gaming cards
2104 2011-05-24 15:32:41 <diki> point is they will probably mine slower than 5850
2105 2011-05-24 15:33:02 <sipa> probably, yes
2106 2011-05-24 15:33:06 <diki> unless there is something else that makes them tick faster
2107 2011-05-24 15:33:07 <sipa> but only slightly

2111 2011-05-24 15:33:45 <luke-jr> diki: your 5850 takes 2 slots
2112 2011-05-24 15:34:24 <Zape_> Nah, they probably will be slower and more costly, not a good fit for a casual miner.  But at $1000 apiece and given the ability to run 8 of them in a 2U Rackmounted box will make them a goto solution for someone trying to put together a mining tower.
2113 2011-05-24 15:34:41 <devrandom_> BlueMatt - there?
2114 2011-05-24 15:34:46 <luke-jr> two V7900 will probably get 560 MH
2115 2011-05-24 15:34:50 <diki> luke it doesnt]
2116 2011-05-24 15:35:14 <BlueMatt> devrandom_: yo
2117 2011-05-24 15:35:26 <sipa> 5850 is a dual-slot card
2118 2011-05-24 15:35:27 <devrandom_> how's it going?
2119 2011-05-24 15:35:39 <_polo_> hello. hey, can someone explain me how a bitcoin user do the bootstrap to join the p2p network. bittorrent has the trackers as a broker, also other p2p softwares has ways to join the network. how bitcoi find it?
2120 2011-05-24 15:35:42 <BlueMatt> pretty good, how you doing?
2121 2011-05-24 15:35:55 <diki> erm no
2122 2011-05-24 15:35:56 <diki> it's not
2123 2011-05-24 15:36:00 <diki> It's single slot
2124 2011-05-24 15:36:04 <BlueMatt> _polo_: nodes join an irc chan
2125 2011-05-24 15:36:06 <diki> at least on my mobo design
2126 2011-05-24 15:36:14 <diki> Thus not a valid argument
2127 2011-05-24 15:36:27 <BlueMatt> and/or lookup a dns name and/or static hard-coded nodes
2128 2011-05-24 15:36:38 <sipa> diki: two slots in height, not how many pcie connectors it has
2129 2011-05-24 15:36:56 <diki> yes i understand
2130 2011-05-24 15:36:59 <devrandom_> BlueMatt - good.  I was thinking we should collect trusted public keys and put them in the config even if they are not building right now.  In case the current set of people has some turnover.
2131 2011-05-24 15:36:59 <diki> and i say it's not
2132 2011-05-24 15:37:11 <sipa> well then i don't believe you, but carry on :)

2136 2011-05-24 15:37:44 <BlueMatt> devrandom_: hm, well the problem is the people now will never be willing to build, not strictly that they cant now
2137 2011-05-24 15:37:45 <sipa> diki: http://www.ixbt.com/video3/images/cypress-3/his-5850-front.jpg - sure looks 2 slots high

2141 2011-05-24 15:38:04 <BlueMatt> also, bitcoin-otc wot signups are a great place, you can get just about anyone's pgp key there
2142 2011-05-24 15:38:08 <BlueMatt> :)
2143 2011-05-24 15:38:23 <_polo_> dinox? same processor? yes.
2144 2011-05-24 15:38:41 <devrandom_> BlueMatt - well, if it's never, not even emergencies, then it's not useful

2149 2011-05-24 15:39:27 <BlueMatt> the majority are restrictions on desire to do it and/or hardware requirements
2150 2011-05-24 15:39:46 <_polo_> dinox. I think it ll work nice, as the software was compiled to the same processor architecture.

2152 2011-05-24 15:40:13 <devrandom_> BlueMatt - I'm sure I'll have ways to build it without kvm at some point

2154 2011-05-24 15:40:35 <devrandom_> BlueMatt - where do we stand with the 0.3.22 build?  Should I continue working on the downloader or is there something else I should be looking at?
2155 2011-05-24 15:40:57 <BlueMatt> devrandom_: hm, Im just not sure about giving a ton of people access who might never build...just incase they lose their keys or such
2156 2011-05-24 15:41:20 <sipa> gavin's signature would be nice :)
2157 2011-05-24 15:41:21 <dinox> _polo_ & BlueMatt: Thanks, would there be more problems if you mixed ubuntu versions? like compile on 10.10 and run on 10.04?
2158 2011-05-24 15:41:25 <BlueMatt> 0.3.22 is building fine with gitian, though I dont think the setup on win32 will be converted to gitian until 0.4
2159 2011-05-24 15:41:42 <devrandom_> BlueMatt sipa - I was thinking just 3-5 people.  Gavin included of course.
2160 2011-05-24 15:42:08 <BlueMatt> devrandom_: meh, Im not against it by any means, just not strictly for it...I see very little benifit
2161 2011-05-24 15:42:53 <BlueMatt> I understand emergencies and the like for security issues, but at that point, you'd hope youd be able to contact someone via phone or whatever to at least get them to sign your build if they cant build at the time
2162 2011-05-24 15:43:22 <BlueMatt> speaking of which, sipa keep your whois phone number up to date ;)
2163 2011-05-24 15:43:37 <BlueMatt> nope its anon, sipa...

2169 2011-05-24 15:45:36 <Zape_> lukejr: If you're right that would mean a 2U box could pump 2240 MH/sdrawing off the Asus' 1400 W power supply.  Yeah, it would cost 10K MSRP, but you could stack 21 into a full size 42U rack for 47.04 GH/s

2181 2011-05-24 15:47:44 <Diablo-D3> its a standard redundant enterprise psu

2185 2011-05-24 15:48:18 <Zape_> I know that, I was referring to the ASUS barebones kit which includes 8 PCI x16 slots.
2186 2011-05-24 15:48:27 <_polo_> Diablo-D3 ow. why is that?
2187 2011-05-24 15:48:45 <Zape_> which combines nicely with the new 1 slot V7900 from AMD which only draws 150 W  each.
2188 2011-05-24 15:48:46 <sipa> because it's a huge work to write a full client from scratch
2189 2011-05-24 15:49:04 <Diablo-D3> Zape_: url?

2206 2011-05-24 15:51:03 <Diablo-D3> it said its a cayman
2207 2011-05-24 15:51:15 <Diablo-D3> a 150w cayman
2208 2011-05-24 15:51:28 <Diablo-D3> with 1280 pipes
2209 2011-05-24 15:51:33 <Diablo-D3> no such cayman exists
2210 2011-05-24 15:51:59 <Zape_> Diablo-D3: yes, it's really more about stacking them into a tight space and going low power than best bang for the buying buck.
2211 2011-05-24 15:52:05 <Diablo-D3> that isnt it
2212 2011-05-24 15:52:08 <Diablo-D3> that chip doesnt exist
2213 2011-05-24 15:52:35 <Zape_> Well, it didn't exist.
2214 2011-05-24 15:52:35 <Diablo-D3> that'd be smaller than a 6950

2218 2011-05-24 15:53:46 <Zape_> Obviously, it's a workstation card...  What I didn't see listed was processing spead.
2219 2011-05-24 15:53:50 <Zape_> errr speed.

2226 2011-05-24 15:55:17 <Diablo-D3> Zape_: a 6950 is 800mhz, has 1408 pipes, and uses 200 watts
2227 2011-05-24 15:55:24 <Diablo-D3> we're solving for mhz
2228 2011-05-24 15:55:53 <Diablo-D3> we know the new one has 1280 pipes and uses 150 watts
2229 2011-05-24 15:56:03 <Diablo-D3> we also know its a cayman
2230 2011-05-24 15:56:06 <Zape_> Well, pipes shouldn't count in that equation.  It might change productivity, but not GPU speed.
2231 2011-05-24 15:56:16 <Diablo-D3> it changes wattage.
2232 2011-05-24 15:56:25 <Zape_> gotcha.
2233 2011-05-24 15:56:44 <Diablo-D3> I could do the same exact math with a 6970
2234 2011-05-24 15:57:03 <Zape_> what if they are using a smaller die size?
2235 2011-05-24 15:57:18 <Diablo-D3> gives me a lower answer of 440
2236 2011-05-24 15:57:25 <Diablo-D3> Zape_: 28nm?
2237 2011-05-24 15:57:31 <Diablo-D3> possibly, which is the interesting thing
2238 2011-05-24 15:57:37 <_polo_> BlueMatt Think is possible to make a torrent hash only to handle peers?
2239 2011-05-24 15:57:38 <Diablo-D3> but I _really_ doubt thats it

2245 2011-05-24 15:58:39 <psymin> Sage: it means that the difficulty is likely to keep going up

2255 2011-05-24 16:00:12 <midnightmagic> every 2016 blocks, it re-accommodates them
2256 2011-05-24 16:00:13 <psymin> midnightmagic: what does that calculation say?

2260 2011-05-24 16:00:31 <psymin> midnightmagic: thx :)
2261 2011-05-24 16:00:36 <Sage> i started mining pretty much today but i just wanna help the bitcoin grow, i love the idea or having free p2p currency
2262 2011-05-24 16:00:53 <midnightmagic> excellent. people like you are the reason why it will be a success.
2263 2011-05-24 16:01:01 <sipa> how much Mhash/s?
2264 2011-05-24 16:01:19 <Sage> thou im having second thoughts about it, i spent 730€ just for the card and power supply
2265 2011-05-24 16:01:32 <midnightmagic> it's the.. others, most often on the other side of the law or in grey areas, that give us all a bad rep.
2266 2011-05-24 16:01:47 <midnightmagic> which card?
2267 2011-05-24 16:01:59 <Sage> yea, but what can we do about it?
2268 2011-05-24 16:02:01 <Sage> 6990
2269 2011-05-24 16:02:20 <midnightmagic> Sage: get legitimate adoption by legal, honest people, and especially by retailers.

2271 2011-05-24 16:02:39 <midnightmagic> Sage: but for us, basically, just being nice people who pay our taxes is enough.
2272 2011-05-24 16:03:24 <Ramen> it shouldn't be against the law
2273 2011-05-24 16:03:31 <Ramen> all funds are traceable ...
2274 2011-05-24 16:03:36 <psymin> Ramen: I think I missed soemthing
2275 2011-05-24 16:03:38 <Sage> midnightmagic im going to do some eshops and id love to make them btc acceptable
2276 2011-05-24 16:03:45 <BlueMatt> _polo_: it absolutely is, but no one has bothered...its not a terrible design but really wouldnt change anything drastically...Id like to see upgrades to dnsseeds and IMHO that could fix everything
2277 2011-05-24 16:04:27 <uppe> the btc currency will flourish when retailers start accepting it. then they will flourish too.
2278 2011-05-24 16:04:51 <Ramen> I think right now the problem is liquidity and stable exchange rate...
2279 2011-05-24 16:04:53 <BlueMatt> pretty much, care to send an email to all the retailers you use regularly and ask them to accept bitcoin?
2280 2011-05-24 16:05:05 <midnightmagic> the people who sell dope over i2p, and when career criminals adopt it for cross-border wealth transfers.. these things really suck serious ass.
2281 2011-05-24 16:05:08 <BlueMatt> yep stable ex rate is a problem, but that is helped by retailers
2282 2011-05-24 16:05:13 <BlueMatt> (who will increase liquidity)
2283 2011-05-24 16:05:22 <zzop> Maybe someone should make a package for retailers saying "hey dudes listen, if you start collecting these coins now, you're probably going to end up with a fuckload more money than you sold the product for"
2284 2011-05-24 16:05:28 <Dekbit> lol plz buy my bitcoins at inflated prices kthnx
2285 2011-05-24 16:05:31 <zzop> Convincingly. :)
2286 2011-05-24 16:05:38 <BlueMatt> zzop: no thats a bad idea
2287 2011-05-24 16:05:45 <zzop> BlueMatt: Yeah yeah, everything is a bad idea. :)
2288 2011-05-24 16:05:46 <BlueMatt> retailers are not in the investment business
2289 2011-05-24 16:06:04 <sipa> you shouldn't see bitcoin as a way to make money by itself
2290 2011-05-24 16:06:06 <BlueMatt> its better for them to just sell right away and take 2 % on from the customer than try to invest
2291 2011-05-24 16:06:07 <zzop> BlueMatt: Sure they are. They're investing in their company every day.
2292 2011-05-24 16:06:13 <Ramen> they need stability
2293 2011-05-24 16:06:15 <sipa> it's highly risky investment if you use it that way
2294 2011-05-24 16:06:30 <Dekbit> ya you shouldnt; you should leave that to the pros and let them worry about all that free money
2295 2011-05-24 16:06:32 <zzop> sipa: Why not? Look around at the pop culture of money markets.
2296 2011-05-24 16:06:33 <BlueMatt> yea, not in the business of high-risk investments instead of storing their money
2297 2011-05-24 16:06:33 <djbev> Maybe Bitcoin is a conspiracy by the GPU companies and Satoshi really is just an GPU architect over at AMD....    you never know.  They seem to be the main beneficiaries so far.
2298 2011-05-24 16:06:36 <midnightmagic> retailers need conversion to real currencies almost immediately: cashflow can't be interrupted on the hopes that deflation will make them more money later. cashflow itself must.. er.. flow.. now, to make more money *now*
2299 2011-05-24 16:06:39 <zzop> sipa: People should feel that they can get rich off of it.
2300 2011-05-24 16:06:45 <BlueMatt> zzop: money markets != retailers

2307 2011-05-24 16:06:56 <BlueMatt> which we already have too much of IMHO
2308 2011-05-24 16:07:02 <zzop> BlueMatt: But they are not immune to the popular influence of it.
2309 2011-05-24 16:07:05 <BlueMatt> but for retailers...no

2315 2011-05-24 16:07:29 <BlueMatt> zzop: name one retailer that stores its money in high-risk investments, or even handles its investments itself (aside from huge ones)
2316 2011-05-24 16:07:41 <zzop> BlueMatt: Got me. But yeah, huge ones. :-)
2317 2011-05-24 16:07:43 <BlueMatt> they store their money in the bank
2318 2011-05-24 16:07:48 <BlueMatt> not in investments
2319 2011-05-24 16:08:02 <BlueMatt> only huge ones invest their money to try to make a couple percent, but not in high-risk stuff
2320 2011-05-24 16:08:03 <devrandom_> BlueMatt - I have gavinandresen's pgp ID as 01CDF4627A3B88AAE4A571C87588242FBE38D3A8 ... we should confirm that independently of bitcoin-otc.
2321 2011-05-24 16:08:03 <zzop> BlueMatt: Not true man, most of these really big companies have big venture capital divisions for example
2322 2011-05-24 16:08:07 <zzop> BlueMatt: Or they have someone else do that.
2323 2011-05-24 16:08:17 <zzop> BlueMatt: We're not appealing to WalMart here anyway.
2324 2011-05-24 16:08:19 <midnightmagic> BlueMatt: they also spend it on inventory, warehousing, staff, rent/land taxes..
2325 2011-05-24 16:08:29 <BlueMatt> devrandom_: thats right according to bitcoin-otc.com
2326 2011-05-24 16:08:30 <midnightmagic> like, within a few weeks, or less depending on turnover rates.
2327 2011-05-24 16:08:46 <Dekbit> truth is there arnt enough bitcoins for widespread business adoption -- for businesses to accept bitcoins they'd have to be confident consumers have them and they dont
2328 2011-05-24 16:08:54 <BlueMatt> midnightmagic: that has nothing to do with where they store their liquid assets
2329 2011-05-24 16:08:57 <Dekbit> so tiny freaking market to sell to
2330 2011-05-24 16:08:59 <Dekbit> not worth the effort
2331 2011-05-24 16:09:01 <devrandom_> BlueMatt - that's where I got the key ID from ;)  should verify it in another way
2332 2011-05-24 16:09:03 <BlueMatt> the big ones store it in investments, but the majority store it in banks
2333 2011-05-24 16:09:17 <BlueMatt> devrandom_: check pgp.mit.edu and search for gavinandresen@gmail.com
2334 2011-05-24 16:09:30 <midnightmagic> BlueMatt: it has to do with cash *flow*, rather than letting the value sit in a deflationary currency and crippling (for example) the next stock order.
2335 2011-05-24 16:09:30 <BlueMatt> (or other keyserver)
2336 2011-05-24 16:10:09 <Dekbit> All it would take is 1 medium scale business accepting bitcoins to crash the price of bitcoins and force every othe rbusiness out of the market as they saw their supposive bitcoin wealth evaporate before they could even withdraw it
2337 2011-05-24 16:10:14 <sipa> ideally there would be some real-life path-of-trust between some bitcoin developers
2338 2011-05-24 16:10:19 <BlueMatt> midnightmagic: exactly, but no retailer stores the cash mid-flow in anything but abank, except for huge ones
2339 2011-05-24 16:10:22 <devrandom_> BlueMatt - ok... would be better to have a person confirm it.

2341 2011-05-24 16:10:32 <zzop> Dekbit: So how to accomplish this before the PR machine makes everyone afraid of these things?
2342 2011-05-24 16:10:33 <Namegduf> Dekbit: Huh?
2343 2011-05-24 16:10:45 <zzop> Dekbit: Seems to me that there's a limited window of opportunity, even if the code keeps going.
2344 2011-05-24 16:10:45 <BlueMatt> devrandom_: sipa yea, but until we have one...pgp works
2345 2011-05-24 16:10:47 <Namegduf> One medium scale business accepting bitcoin would... collapse the price how?
2346 2011-05-24 16:11:01 <Namegduf> If lots spent their bitcoins, their value would go up
2347 2011-05-24 16:11:02 <zzop> Namegduf: Actually that's a good question.
2348 2011-05-24 16:11:05 <Dekbit> getting free bitcoins that have been generated and hoarded then dumping them on the market
2349 2011-05-24 16:11:07 <sipa> BlueMatt: pgp is intended to be used with a web of trust :)
2350 2011-05-24 16:11:07 <midnightmagic> BlueMatt: hence nightly deposits. risk of theft is too great when losing a single day's worth of revenue can cripple the bottom line for weeks.
2351 2011-05-24 16:11:10 <BlueMatt> has gavin not pgp signed a message or release or two?
2352 2011-05-24 16:11:18 <Dekbit> cause they wouldnt hoard they'd sell immediately
2353 2011-05-24 16:11:40 <Namegduf> Dekbit: And why would currently hoarded BTC be gotten by them?
2354 2011-05-24 16:11:45 <gjs278> do you guys really not believe it's him
2355 2011-05-24 16:11:46 <BlueMatt> midnightmagic: anyway, I dont see what you are arguing, if you think small retailers should store in bitcoin, even for a couple minutes, Id call you insane
2356 2011-05-24 16:11:48 <Dekbit> who else would be buying their services?
2357 2011-05-24 16:11:53 <Namegduf> Anyone with BTC?
2358 2011-05-24 16:11:54 <Dekbit> only people with current btc
2359 2011-05-24 16:11:55 <BlueMatt> if you dont, then we both say the same thing
2360 2011-05-24 16:12:00 <Dekbit> a lot of those were generated
2361 2011-05-24 16:12:00 <midnightmagic> Namegduf: it would crash it because they would need to convert to cash often and regularly. and people would just lowball them because people know a brick-and-mortar business *requires* cashflow to survive.
2362 2011-05-24 16:12:02 <Dekbit> but held
2363 2011-05-24 16:12:18 <midnightmagic> BlueMatt: that's exactly what I'm saying. I'm agreeing with you.
2364 2011-05-24 16:12:24 <BlueMatt> sipa: well, it _can_ be used otherwise too :)
2365 2011-05-24 16:12:32 <sipa> sure
2366 2011-05-24 16:12:41 <BlueMatt> pgp works fine...all my emails are pgp signed so you know what to look for
2367 2011-05-24 16:12:52 <sipa> but at least theoretically you're always vulnerable to a man-in-the-middle attack
2368 2011-05-24 16:12:58 <BlueMatt> ?
2369 2011-05-24 16:13:05 <BlueMatt> isnt that the point of asym crypto?
2370 2011-05-24 16:13:06 <gjs278> man in the middle attacks are nerd fantasy
2371 2011-05-24 16:13:17 <Dekbit> u kidding?
2372 2011-05-24 16:13:18 <sipa> BlueMatt: no, it's the point of a web of trust
2373 2011-05-24 16:13:24 <Namegduf> MITM attacks are a problem countered by any competent cryptographic setup
2374 2011-05-24 16:13:30 <BlueMatt> oh you mean mitm of exchanging pubkeys
2375 2011-05-24 16:13:31 <Namegduf> WoT deals with them

2381 2011-05-24 16:14:18 <sipa> even then i wouldn't know you are you </paranoid>

2383 2011-05-24 16:14:26 <gjs278> that's not something the real BlueMatt would offer us
2384 2011-05-24 16:14:33 <gjs278> this is a fraud
2385 2011-05-24 16:15:09 <BlueMatt> ok, then Ill go scan my license with my pgp key below it...good enough?
2386 2011-05-24 16:15:46 <gjs278> show us the pgp key on your birth certificate, long form
2387 2011-05-24 16:15:48 <sipa> no need, i left paranoid mode 3 lines ago
2388 2011-05-24 16:16:18 <midnightmagic> right, because we know "BlueMatt" the online persona well enough that a birth certificate would be helpful in identifying him.
2389 2011-05-24 16:16:27 <BlueMatt> gjs278: lol, but then you dont have a pic...you need me holding pgp key + license + long form b cert
2390 2011-05-24 16:16:28 <midnightmagic> BlueMatt: so? cough it up.
2391 2011-05-24 16:16:41 <BlueMatt> lol
2392 2011-05-24 16:16:47 <Ramen> unless the birth certificate is from Hawaii then it doesn't count
2393 2011-05-24 16:17:37 <gjs278> if you steal someone's pgp private key long enough, do you become that person
2394 2011-05-24 16:18:13 <BlueMatt> yep

2431 2011-05-24 16:24:45 <Clarence> alexa is funny.  Bitcoin.org's three-month global Alexa traffic rank is 11,684. Relative to the overall population of internet users, the site's audience tends to be male; it also appeals more to childless, low-income users under the age of 35 who browse from home.

2436 2011-05-24 16:25:27 <vegard> heh. there are some wtfs in bitcoin: if (nErr == WSAEWOULDBLOCK || nErr == WSAEINTR || nErr == WSAEINPROGRESS) { Sleep(10); continue; }
2437 2011-05-24 16:25:29 <BlueMatt> ?
2438 2011-05-24 16:25:35 <jrmithdobbs> Sage: still have to get money in and out of the system
2439 2011-05-24 16:25:44 <jrmithdobbs> Sage: so, yes
2440 2011-05-24 16:25:45 <midnightmagic> Sage: how do you get real-world currency into your own hands? or ฿? You have to mine them yourself, and then spend them for other anonymous things if you want a hope of staying anonymous
2441 2011-05-24 16:25:51 <jrmithdobbs> Sage: it is pseudanonymous
2442 2011-05-24 16:26:00 <uppe> or maybe you don't have a german gf... :-)
2443 2011-05-24 16:26:08 * uppe is pseudofunny
2444 2011-05-24 16:26:52 <Sage> midnightmagic ok but that wasnt the point :D

2448 2011-05-24 16:27:37 <Sage> jrmithdobbs but that wasnt what i was talking/asking about
2449 2011-05-24 16:27:37 <jaromil> which makes bitcoin very powerful if you consider that profile is actually about people that will build their economy in a close future
2450 2011-05-24 16:27:37 <midnightmagic> Sage: then.. uh.. the answer to your question is, "Yes."

2453 2011-05-24 16:28:08 <jrmithdobbs> Sage: then you asked the wrong thing
2454 2011-05-24 16:28:08 <Sage> midnightmagic i wanted to learn the ways of anonymous, not hear "yes" :)
2455 2011-05-24 16:28:10 <Dekbit> there is no such thing as pseudoanonymous
2456 2011-05-24 16:28:14 <jrmithdobbs> Sage: because that is definitely the point.
2457 2011-05-24 16:28:22 <erbs> frozen owls
2458 2011-05-24 16:28:33 <midnightmagic> Sage: I'm definitely not in it for the lulz.
2459 2011-05-24 16:29:39 <Sage> midnightmagic now im not sure what you mean - in the "helping me get there" or "the whole thing"
2460 2011-05-24 16:30:13 <midnightmagic> Sage: :-) Anyway, seek anonymity through large mining rigs, tor (possibly i2p) and making sure you never convert your ฿ to standard currency, and .. hrm.. never spending it on something that can be somehow subsequently linked to you, ever.
2461 2011-05-24 16:30:50 <jrmithdobbs> so impossible
2462 2011-05-24 16:30:51 <jrmithdobbs> basically
2463 2011-05-24 16:31:04 <Sage> how can i open privat chat? :D
2464 2011-05-24 16:31:04 <Dekbit> any time a single person can be identified using a single coin you also used before the transactions can be traced back to you through any intermediary holders of the coin
2465 2011-05-24 16:32:12 <midnightmagic> Dekbit: I wouldn't go that far.
2466 2011-05-24 16:32:55 <devrandom_> BlueMatt - so I have the following on my todo list: incremental upgrade of a destination directory (i.e. upgrade between versions), add version # to build reports so that downloader can check that it's going up, maybe implement a json option
2467 2011-05-24 16:33:43 <erbs> whats new doood
2468 2011-05-24 16:34:19 <BlueMatt> devrandom_: sounds good to me, Ill look at compiling the download script into a proper installer later, maybe late this week
2469 2011-05-24 16:34:30 <Sage> anyway midnightmagic, i dont want to be anonymous (well not so much), id rather help others
2470 2011-05-24 16:34:38 <BlueMatt> (wrap it in nsis somehow)
2471 2011-05-24 16:34:44 <devrandom_> BlueMatt - you mean for win32?

2476 2011-05-24 16:35:17 <erbs> upgrayd

2479 2011-05-24 16:35:37 <BlueMatt> yea, but Id like it in a really nice exe with gui like a regular installer and the like...probably easier to just do a postinst scrip in nsis
2480 2011-05-24 16:36:04 <Sage> midnightmagic but before that i have to learn what it all actually is and how it works, right?
2481 2011-05-24 16:36:25 <BlueMatt> (via py2exe)
2482 2011-05-24 16:36:36 <Dekbit> midnight: why not? the block chain is public. You would just need to "ask" each person

2491 2011-05-24 16:41:45 <midnightmagic> Sage: it would be a good idea. The Wiki has a lot of info in it, but it's pretty disjointed. Personally, I learned the most when I asked questions and read the source code. Can you grok c++? Things are a lot easier to understand if you can.
2492 2011-05-24 16:41:54 <vegard> hoho -- the stack randomisation technique in bitcoin is quite... interesting. but doesn't the compiler optimise it away as tail recursion?
2493 2011-05-24 16:42:43 <midnightmagic> Dekbit: if I contacted you through a tor outproxy, bought some virtual server space with bitcoins I mined myself, How are you going to help investigators at all find out who I am?
2494 2011-05-24 16:43:20 <erbs> tor can be traced.. but its not ez to do
2495 2011-05-24 16:43:45 <Sage> midnightmagic id  have to start with networking, because im totally lame
2496 2011-05-24 16:43:47 <erbs> you might want to up the # of proxies from te default of 3 to like 5 or something when doing sensitive things
2497 2011-05-24 16:44:03 <Sage> midnightmagic all i know is some php
2498 2011-05-24 16:44:35 <midnightmagic> Sage: in that case, I guess just read the wiki obsessively. I found it very interesting to search on Satoshi's nickname in the forums and read his old posts.
2499 2011-05-24 16:44:50 <erbs> EU requires all ISPs to maintain TCP start/stop connection logs between all hosts for between 3 months and 2 years, at various sample rates
2500 2011-05-24 16:44:52 <Sage> whos that?
2501 2011-05-24 16:45:08 <midnightmagic> Sage: that's the guy who designed and wrote Bitcoin.
2502 2011-05-24 16:45:23 <Sage> midnightmagic :-] see how lame i am?
2503 2011-05-24 16:45:23 <erbs> US has similar practices.. so all co nnections are logged, and the times can be correlated.. but this requires subpoena power in all 3+  jurisdictions that your packets travel through
2504 2011-05-24 16:46:21 <erbs> and then a specialized analysis of the data.. its not ez like they do now just by calling up an isp and asking who the subcriber is.. but if you're a major "person of interest" to the gov they can do some tracking
2505 2011-05-24 16:47:38 <erbs> the level of surveillance is astounding
2506 2011-05-24 16:47:45 <midnightmagic> erbs: cites for connection logging?
2507 2011-05-24 16:48:04 <erbs> imagine if gov knew every building you walked in and out of and the times

2511 2011-05-24 16:50:05 <erbs> we already know the US has access to the raw traffic at every major isp. the carriers provide them with all the data they want... and they have DCS so they can monitor all traffic from any isp on demand
2512 2011-05-24 16:50:28 <erbs> dcs is the lawful intercept - which every isp is required to provide. lets them packet trace whatever they want

2532 2011-05-24 17:00:13 <Dekbit> depends if you have masive free hardware to use
2533 2011-05-24 17:01:15 <midnightmagic> "[09:25] <Dekbit> any time a single person can be identified using a single coin you also used before the transactions can be traced back to you through any intermediary holders of the coin" ← i was just answering that.
2534 2011-05-24 17:01:35 <Dekbit> do you see where it says 'used before the transactions'?
2535 2011-05-24 17:01:49 <Dekbit> sorry if i wasnt clear but that means the coin traced had to be used by you previously
2536 2011-05-24 17:01:52 <midnightmagic> that just seemed to encompass coins that I had generated, but were used multiple times by other people beyond that.
2537 2011-05-24 17:02:17 <erbs> the level of internet surveillance is through the roof. they are now data mining social network sites to find dissenters...
2538 2011-05-24 17:02:19 <Dekbit> so if you generate a coin, then pass it to someone, they pass it to someone, you find out about that person and ask em where they got it, then ask the next person, next thing you know they found you
2539 2011-05-24 17:02:19 <erbs> pretty crazed
2540 2011-05-24 17:02:36 <Dekbit> and by ask it could be a court order
2541 2011-05-24 17:02:39 <erbs> of course now they have more data than they know what to do with, but they are gradually getting a process to filter it
2542 2011-05-24 17:02:50 <midnightmagic> Dekbit: right, that's what I think is a little far-fetched depending on how the coin was spent.
2543 2011-05-24 17:03:16 Blitzboom_ has joined
2544 2011-05-24 17:03:39 <Ramen> so it's actually easier to trace money on bitcoin then real life lol
2545 2011-05-24 17:03:43 <Dekbit> IF you generated it and were on a public wifi through multiple proxies then yes, maybe it would be extremely difficult to get that last leg
2546 2011-05-24 17:03:57 <vegard> making a decentralised social network based on privacy and crypto shouldn't be too hard -- not even the storage providers should be able to see your data
2547 2011-05-24 17:04:00 <Dekbit> but not impossible if you slip up even once
2548 2011-05-24 17:04:48 <midnightmagic> Dekbit: even if you were able to get ahold of the coins, all you have to do is ensure that the payment arrived to you, and left from you, with enough of a disconnect that it can't be traced.
2549 2011-05-24 17:05:02 <erbs> yeah if you take reasonable precautions when doing sensitive things, the cost for them to trace you is higher than the value they get from it.. unless your bin laden's courier
2550 2011-05-24 17:05:07 <Dekbit> yes but if your in the chain at all suspicion would be on you and you'd be called in
2551 2011-05-24 17:05:16 <Dekbit> just saying 'i sent it to some other guy who knows' might not cut it
2552 2011-05-24 17:05:21 <Dekbit> basically bitcoin itself is insecure and non-anonymous but you can take other third party steps to protect yourself more
2553 2011-05-24 17:05:36 Blitzboom has quit (Ping timeout: 260 seconds)
2554 2011-05-24 17:05:50 <midnightmagic> well that's my point: how would anyone even know it was you, right? it's not like you have to have a personal relationship with someone to pay them bitcoins.
2555 2011-05-24 17:05:50 <erbs> in some sense Tor is a honeypot. lots of exit servers are govt-run, they monitor all the traffic of course
2556 2011-05-24 17:06:17 <wumpus> yeah, ideally you don't use exit nodes with tor, or at least https sites only
2557 2011-05-24 17:06:48 <erbs> wikileaks got their first data dumps by setting up exit servers and monitoring the traffic.. turned out a lot of govt diplomats used it to communicate
2558 2011-05-24 17:07:44 <wumpus> right, a lot of people don't realize that, whereas tor-to-tor traffic is encrypted, traffic from the exit nodes is not
2559 2011-05-24 17:07:51 <erbs> yeah
2560 2011-05-24 17:08:03 <midnightmagic> erbs: that's never really been confirmed.
2561 2011-05-24 17:08:15 <erbs> do you expect the head of the cia to call a press conference and confirm it?
2562 2011-05-24 17:08:25 <Sage> who would ever use tor for normal net?
2563 2011-05-24 17:08:27 <midnightmagic> erbs: it hasn't been confirmed by anybody.
2564 2011-05-24 17:08:55 <midnightmagic> erbs: and I think.. I thought I saw Assange denying it in a video..
2565 2011-05-24 17:09:03 <erbs> oh as far as wikileaks using it?
2566 2011-05-24 17:09:03 <wumpus> of course he denies it
2567 2011-05-24 17:09:07 <wumpus> it's probably illegal
2568 2011-05-24 17:09:07 <midnightmagic> yeah, wikileaks.

2590 2011-05-24 17:12:30 <Dekbit> unless you throttle it down

2594 2011-05-24 17:12:51 <Sage> gpu
2595 2011-05-24 17:13:09 <Dekbit> So did you set GPU fan specifically?
2596 2011-05-24 17:13:24 <Sage> yes
2597 2011-05-24 17:13:31 <Dekbit> ya well thats your weak spot :)
2598 2011-05-24 17:13:39 <Sage> rofl its back to 71 now
2599 2011-05-24 17:13:42 <midnightmagic> He is using a 6990, he said so earlier.
2600 2011-05-24 17:14:03 <Sage> how can i throttle it down? i use poclmb
2601 2011-05-24 17:14:05 <midnightmagic> 71C is okay. Just watch it, and it ever gets up past ~ 85C, then you have a problem.
2602 2011-05-24 17:14:06 <Dekbit> ah sorry wasnt paying attention
2603 2011-05-24 17:14:21 <Sage> it went up to 72, now back to 71
2604 2011-05-24 17:14:31 <midnightmagic> ignore 1° differences.
2605 2011-05-24 17:14:32 <Sage> i moved the fan a bit
2606 2011-05-24 17:14:44 <Sage> well it started off with 68 after first 20 minutes
2607 2011-05-24 17:14:47 <Dekbit> also you could literally put a bigger fan facing your comp or something =P
2608 2011-05-24 17:14:50 <vegard> isn't the card's built-in fan enough?
2609 2011-05-24 17:14:51 <Dekbit> get more air flow
2610 2011-05-24 17:14:57 <Sage> dekbit i did that already
2611 2011-05-24 17:15:07 <Sage> vegard not even closely
2612 2011-05-24 17:15:10 <Dekbit> could be the case holding a lot of air in so the fan isnt able to push it out
2613 2011-05-24 17:15:23 <Sage> the case has many holes
2614 2011-05-24 17:15:27 <Dekbit> but 70 isnt that bad for a gpu
2615 2011-05-24 17:15:30 <Sage> even on top
2616 2011-05-24 17:15:46 <vegard> my card is stable on 70 degrees when I set the fan to 45
2617 2011-05-24 17:15:57 <midnightmagic> The 5970 can move 81cfm with fans on 100%. At about half speed, they can heat air from 18° to ~ 65°C at the exit of the card.
2618 2011-05-24 17:16:05 <Sage> vegard what is the room temperature and what case do you use?
2619 2011-05-24 17:16:09 <Dekbit> haha wow

2621 2011-05-24 17:16:50 <erbs> wikileaks responded to the question of whether they used Tor or not with a non-specific dismissal, but it doesnt sound like they disputed the part about using Tor: http://www.theregister.co.uk/2010/06/02/wikileaks_tor_snooping_denial/
2622 2011-05-24 17:17:01 <vegard> Sage: room temperature maybe 20 degrees. that's normal, right? I took off the side of the case
2623 2011-05-24 17:17:07 <midnightmagic> at 81CFM, per card, if you have 4 cards crammed into one machine, you have somewhere around 160CFM hitting potentially 65°C pumped into your room. That's a lot.
2624 2011-05-24 17:17:20 <Sage> vegard sounds cool, i have a bit more here
2625 2011-05-24 17:17:22 <erbs> they couldve said "We never spied on Tor traffic"
2626 2011-05-24 17:17:38 <Sage> vegard but i still cant believe you.. what clocks do you have?
2627 2011-05-24 17:17:40 <vegard> Sage: funny.
2628 2011-05-24 17:17:53 <erbs> but instead they said "Wired has a beatup on WL&Tor,with no new info,spinning "our" 2006 investigation into Chinese spying. Don't be fooled"   they say wired has no new info.. thats not a denial really
2629 2011-05-24 17:18:03 <vegard> I have 6950, though.. so maybe that's why.
2630 2011-05-24 17:18:12 <midnightmagic> erbs: the "original" source of that Wired article (which is typical for Wired, writing meta-articles saying completely different things) appears to be here: http://www.newyorker.com/reporting/2010/06/07/100607fa_fact_khatchadourian?currentPage=all#ixzz0pWdlAepe  and they don't actually say *WHEN* the "wikileaks activist" took the docs from his Tor exit node.

2634 2011-05-24 17:19:17 <Sage> vegard possibly, the second core does heat up the first one as well, its one freaking barbecue grill
2635 2011-05-24 17:19:37 <vegard> next step: pump fake documents into tor
2636 2011-05-24 17:19:46 <erbs> assange didn't deny it
2637 2011-05-24 17:20:08 <erbs> "Assange responded to our inquiries by saying the New Yorker and Wired had each presented a misleading picture, without shedding much light on WikiLeaks use of Tor exit node interception"
2638 2011-05-24 17:20:10 <Sage> but how can i throttle down my miner?
2639 2011-05-24 17:20:32 <vegard> Sage: you could set a large value for "time between requests"
2640 2011-05-24 17:21:05 <midnightmagic> erbs: But I'd bet you the Tor exit node operator was that Daniel Domscheit-Berg guy, and I seem to recall he ran a Tor exit-node.
2641 2011-05-24 17:21:09 <Namegduf> To be fair, if you're idiotic enough to distribute anything over Tor without also using SSL or such
2642 2011-05-24 17:21:11 <erbs> assange never says "we did not spy on tor".  in any case, if theyre using tor to track govt agents and diplomats thats fine by me.. i mean everyone knows tor exit nodes can monitor your traffic
2643 2011-05-24 17:21:11 <Sage> which one is it on poclbm? :)
2644 2011-05-24 17:21:14 <Namegduf> You deserve everything you get
2645 2011-05-24 17:21:21 <midnightmagic> erbs: Yeah, but who's the source, when Wikileaks themselves are actually denying it?
2646 2011-05-24 17:21:25 <vegard> Sage: --askrate 10
2647 2011-05-24 17:21:28 <erbs> i have no problem with WL using tor to spy on dimplomats, cia, other bad ppl
2648 2011-05-24 17:21:30 <Namegduf> Because you're sending in the clear through other people's stuff
2649 2011-05-24 17:21:42 <erbs> midnightmagic: but he didn't deny it. he said the article was misleading but didn't deny using Tor
2650 2011-05-24 17:22:06 <Dekbit> probably just misleading in the sense that he thinks its 'ok' to do in the name of freedom
2651 2011-05-24 17:22:14 <Sage> i will give that a try later
2652 2011-05-24 17:22:26 <erbs> WL was asked if they intercepted Tor data - the response from WL was non-specific
2653 2011-05-24 17:22:35 kika_ has joined
2654 2011-05-24 17:22:41 <luke-jr> hahaha nice
2655 2011-05-24 17:22:48 <Sage> i moved my fan i have against my case a bit and now the temps are going a bit down... this is a nightmare :D
2656 2011-05-24 17:23:21 <Dekbit> could be perfect if you get it stable
2657 2011-05-24 17:23:32 <Dekbit> turn down your ac a few degrees ;)
2658 2011-05-24 17:23:52 <erbs> WL is doing good work, so let them spy on diplomats via tor
2659 2011-05-24 17:24:05 <midnightmagic> erbs: But the articles themselves' "imputation is incorrect." "One of our contacts". So the "facts" on which the articles were built were maligned. And I would say that the fact the original question was re: "Tor exit node interception", and Assange's response was, "The imputation is incorrect."
2660 2011-05-24 17:24:20 <jlewis> ;;bc,gen 39000000

2662 2011-05-24 17:25:04 <erbs> the WL tweet in response to the wired article sasy "no new info".  if the information is false, how can it be considered "no new info". wouldnt it be "false" ?
2663 2011-05-24 17:25:05 <Sage> dekbit i have no ac here... and the sun was shining in my direction
2664 2011-05-24 17:25:08 <midnightmagic> Even if it weren't a specific denial, there's no reason to believe the original New Yorker article now since it boils down to a he-said/she-said
2665 2011-05-24 17:25:24 <Sage> perhaps that caused the slow increase..

2669 2011-05-24 17:25:48 <Diablo-D3> [01:14:29] <erbs> assange never says "we did not spy on tor".
2670 2011-05-24 17:25:49 <Diablo-D3> dude
2671 2011-05-24 17:25:52 <Diablo-D3> if he can spy on tor
2672 2011-05-24 17:25:53 <jrmithdobbs> erbs: anyone sending anything through tor in plaintext deservers what they get
2673 2011-05-24 17:25:55 <Diablo-D3> he has fucking super powers
2674 2011-05-24 17:26:10 <midnightmagic> Diablo-D3: the idea is that Wikileaks used captured traffic from a tor exit-node.
2675 2011-05-24 17:26:20 <erbs> Diablo-D3 - anyone can spy on tor web traffic by setting up an exit server.. you can do it on your pc if you feel like it
2676 2011-05-24 17:26:20 <Diablo-D3> midnightmagic: that would be interesting as fuck
2677 2011-05-24 17:26:34 <jrmithdobbs> i buy it and wouldn't be surprised if it were true
2678 2011-05-24 17:26:35 <Diablo-D3> erbs: yes, but all he knows is where I am, and where my target server is
2679 2011-05-24 17:26:38 <midnightmagic> Diablo-D3: well that's what the New Yorker claimed.
2680 2011-05-24 17:26:39 <gmaxwell> midnightmagic: thats been pretty heavily discounted.
2681 2011-05-24 17:26:46 <Diablo-D3> erbs: he cant spy through https.
2682 2011-05-24 17:26:47 <midnightmagic> gmaxwell: Yeah that's what I was saying.
2683 2011-05-24 17:26:48 <jrmithdobbs> but seriously, anyone who sends plaintext traffic through tor is retarded
2684 2011-05-24 17:27:02 <erbs> jrmithdobbs - yeah i dont mind that they are doing good investigative work using Tor. as long as they arent spilling innocent ppl's data
2685 2011-05-24 17:27:05 <Sage> jrmithdobbs perhaps they cant do it better
2686 2011-05-24 17:27:07 <Diablo-D3> [12:00:28] <Zape_> Diablo-D3: Wikipedia to the rescue, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_AMD_graphics_processing_units#FirePro_3D_series
2687 2011-05-24 17:27:15 <Diablo-D3> aww zape left
2688 2011-05-24 17:27:17 <jrmithdobbs> erbs: disagree
2689 2011-05-24 17:27:19 <Dekbit> Honestly assange would probably leak innocent peoples data as quickly as the govt
2690 2011-05-24 17:27:19 <erbs> but tracking the chinese crackdown of peaceful tibetans via tor is a good cause
2691 2011-05-24 17:27:22 <Diablo-D3> Im surprised thats updated so fucking fast
2692 2011-05-24 17:27:22 <gmaxwell> (It's unlikely based on the facts and it's been pretty agressively rejected by people whowould know)
2693 2011-05-24 17:27:23 <Dekbit> he just wants to leak all data
2694 2011-05-24 17:27:28 <jrmithdobbs> erbs: spill the data of innocents as far as i'm concerned
2695 2011-05-24 17:27:45 <midnightmagic> private individuals deserve their privacy.
2696 2011-05-24 17:27:56 <jercos> And public individuals don't?
2697 2011-05-24 17:27:57 <diki> lol
2698 2011-05-24 17:28:00 <midnightmagic> even if they don't have the skills to be über-hackers.
2699 2011-05-24 17:28:08 <jrmithdobbs> midnightmagic: so long as they actually take the steps to ensure their privacy, sure
2700 2011-05-24 17:28:12 <midnightmagic> no, because they are public figures who chose the life of a public figure.
2701 2011-05-24 17:28:13 <diki> i tried copying over sharelog functions in pushpool to make a blocklog function
2702 2011-05-24 17:28:17 <jrmithdobbs> midnightmagic: if no steps are taken they deserve what they get
2703 2011-05-24 17:28:18 <diki> thousands of errors popped up
2704 2011-05-24 17:28:31 <gmaxwell> jrmithdobbs: ensuring your privacy is basically an impossible battle.
2705 2011-05-24 17:28:46 <jrmithdobbs> gmaxwell: ensuring it long enough where the data is no longer useful isn't
2706 2011-05-24 17:29:02 <jrmithdobbs> also
2707 2011-05-24 17:29:16 <jrmithdobbs> us gov needs to start enforcing that "you cannot require a ssn for anything ever" law
2708 2011-05-24 17:29:32 <jrmithdobbs> they've even enacted contrary laws that require it for things at this point
2709 2011-05-24 17:29:34 <midnightmagic> jrmithdobbs: you can't expect them to be 100% aware of the things that you are aware of. that would be like an engineer thinking you were an idiot for not intuiting the design specs of a bridge or his machinery.
2710 2011-05-24 17:29:43 <erbs> "Somewhere between none and handful of those documents were ever released on WikiLeaks."  <-- in other words, "maybe we did, maybe we didn't"

2714 2011-05-24 17:30:15 <jrmithdobbs> erbs: no
2715 2011-05-24 17:30:25 <gmaxwell> "you mean websites keep a record of my visits‽" sounds stupid to someone in the know, but it's really not that obvious that some ephermerial reading activity leaves a forever record.
2716 2011-05-24 17:30:34 <erbs> again, i dont think WL did anything wrong by spying on chinese thugs
2717 2011-05-24 17:30:35 <jrmithdobbs> erbs: "your honor, i may have stolen between $0 and $100,000 but there is no evidence to support this theory"
2718 2011-05-24 17:30:39 <midnightmagic> erbs: i thought it was a handful from the Chinese spying investigation..
2719 2011-05-24 17:30:43 <diki> maybe i forgot to tell the compiler to put the function in the known names...........

2784 2011-05-24 17:43:15 <diki> and i am saying it shouldnt null
2785 2011-05-24 17:43:18 <diki> i've defined it
2786 2011-05-24 17:44:01 <jrmithdobbs> diki: have you seriously not figured out that you need "sharelog": true in the db config?
2787 2011-05-24 17:44:41 <diki> oh...
2788 2011-05-24 17:45:02 <jrmithdobbs> diki: thought about telling you that 3 or 4 days ago but figured you would "get" it
2789 2011-05-24 17:45:17 <diki> I still fixed it though
2790 2011-05-24 17:45:21 <jrmithdobbs> no you broke it more
2791 2011-05-24 17:45:26 <diki> How?
2792 2011-05-24 17:45:30 <luke-jr> >_<
2793 2011-05-24 17:45:35 <diki> By removing the code that checks for that true?
2794 2011-05-24 17:45:44 <jrmithdobbs> cause now it'll always try and log to the db even if one's not defined
2795 2011-05-24 17:45:48 <diki> oh yeah, i even fixed the code without knowing
2796 2011-05-24 17:46:02 <mtrlt> you broke it because one configuration option does not work
2797 2011-05-24 17:46:02 <diki> one WILL BE defined
2798 2011-05-24 17:46:04 <mtrlt> :(
2799 2011-05-24 17:46:23 <jrmithdobbs> you introduced a null pointer dereference possibility because you didn't just go look and see what was setting that value
2800 2011-05-24 17:46:42 <diki> may also add that it's not present in the example cfg
2801 2011-05-24 17:46:54 <diki> thus i never could've known
2802 2011-05-24 17:46:57 <jrmithdobbs> it is in one of the pull requests in github
2803 2011-05-24 17:47:06 <jrmithdobbs> yes you could have, it's clearly in the json config parser
2804 2011-05-24 17:47:20 <jrmithdobbs> and after a week you should've read that 4 or 5 times by now at least

2816 2011-05-24 17:49:25 <diki> Sage: less load?
2817 2011-05-24 17:49:35 <midnightmagic> no need to be mean to the guy.. :(
2818 2011-05-24 17:49:36 <jrmithdobbs> Dekbit: that man should not be writing code involving monetary transactions in any form, i'm not going to hide my distate.
2819 2011-05-24 17:49:38 <Sage> diki: the difference is 98 to 97
2820 2011-05-24 17:49:52 <diki> how cooler in C?
2821 2011-05-24 17:49:52 <Sage> in load and 71 to 68 in temp
2822 2011-05-24 17:50:00 <Dekbit> lol point is everyone has to learn i am sure you didnt know everything you know today when you started a week in
2823 2011-05-24 17:50:07 <Dekbit> each core is going to be slightly different just do to manufacturing variance
2824 2011-05-24 17:50:19 <Dekbit> could be the other way around in a different machine
2825 2011-05-24 17:50:22 <jrmithdobbs> Dekbit: but i didn't try and touch financials software as my first c project either.
2826 2011-05-24 17:50:30 <Dekbit> true enough
2827 2011-05-24 17:50:46 <diki> And my first php project was a torrent tracker

2843 2011-05-24 17:54:02 <diki> i also hate the sun

2858 2011-05-24 17:58:58 <jrmithdobbs> diki: SELECT solution FROM shares WHERE upstream_result='Y'; will get you the actual successfull blocks, the former will just get you the ones it tried to send to bitcoind (both rejected and accepted)
2859 2011-05-24 17:59:14 <diki> so you want me to actually make two queries?
2860 2011-05-24 17:59:28 <diki> Listen to me before you write...
2861 2011-05-24 17:59:36 <jrmithdobbs> the two queries serve two different purposes depending on what you're looking for?

2863 2011-05-24 18:00:05 <diki> When the pool finds a block it displays applog(LOG_INFO, "PROOF-OF-WORK found");

2865 2011-05-24 18:00:13 <jrmithdobbs> diki: if you don't care about the shares data turn off the option that drops it to artificial difficulty levels and have it spit the real difficulty at your miners

2867 2011-05-24 18:00:31 <jrmithdobbs> diki: then the only thing in the shares log will be shares submitted to bitcoind
2868 2011-05-24 18:00:34 <diki> after that line i will create a function to calculate the block hash from the solution which is hexstr
2869 2011-05-24 18:00:45 <diki> rather, use the pre-existing function
2870 2011-05-24 18:00:55 <diki> But make my own to isnert the block in the blocks table i have prepared
2871 2011-05-24 18:01:02 <diki> *insert
2872 2011-05-24 18:01:03 <Sage> ramen: its holding up so much  better now, i bought 23cm fan, now it faces the card and i have 70°C on first and 68˘C on

2875 2011-05-24 18:01:47 <diki> that select you are speaking of...i can do it server-side i.e via php, but then that means i will have to make two queries..one for select and one for inserting
2876 2011-05-24 18:01:50 <jrmithdobbs> diki: why a whole separate table? just add a block_number column to the db without a NOT NULL constraint and populate it on success from bitcoind
2877 2011-05-24 18:01:53 <diki> This way i insert only ONE

2912 2011-05-24 18:05:41 <diki> i prefer a new function...speed won't decrease either
2913 2011-05-24 18:05:45 <jrmithdobbs> you don't need to do either. the sharelog functionality already logs everything you need except the block number
2914 2011-05-24 18:05:45 <diki> as blocks wont be found that fast
2915 2011-05-24 18:05:59 <jrmithdobbs> just modify sharelog to log the block number if upstream_result = 'Y'
2916 2011-05-24 18:06:06 <jrmithdobbs> at insert time
2917 2011-05-24 18:06:30 <diki> when a block is found it will insert the share in it's raw form with upstream_result = Y
2918 2011-05-24 18:06:54 <diki> instead of doing SELECT blahblah i can insert the block in the blocks table at find time
2919 2011-05-24 18:07:03 <diki> reducing the need for any other quries done via php etc

2924 2011-05-24 18:07:56 <jrmithdobbs> you can't pull the data out with an insert, so if you're ever displaying it you have to select either way

2931 2011-05-24 18:08:40 <diki> and recalculate the 80 bytes to a valid block hash?
2932 2011-05-24 18:08:43 <diki> =slow
2933 2011-05-24 18:09:00 <diki> because pushpool inserts a share, not the valid block hahs

2937 2011-05-24 18:09:33 <jrmithdobbs> a) that is subsecond so not slow, and b) if you're really worried about, like i said, calculate the blockhash/number on insert in the sharelog function when upstream_result = 'Y' at insert time
2938 2011-05-24 18:09:52 <jrmithdobbs> and just add a damned column to the table

2982 2011-05-24 18:17:51 <dnicoin> what is the story of our friend the emokid here?
2983 2011-05-24 18:18:14 <jrmithdobbs> diki: i don't think you understand the liability you're opening yourself up to by reimplementing existing features in broken ways.

2995 2011-05-24 18:19:52 <jrmithdobbs> diki: considering it's taken you a week to figure out how to get pushpoold to record shares to the db, and only then because you were told, you are obviously fighting an upwards battle.

3032 2011-05-24 18:25:28 <Sage> ersi: its good to read some nice and warm things after a whole day of failing :)
3033 2011-05-24 18:25:34 <diki> I really see no problem with my code. It will work as effectively as any other
3034 2011-05-24 18:25:43 <jrmithdobbs> so it looks like mining is about to take a big dump in profitability
3035 2011-05-24 18:26:01 <BitterTea> Anybody using BitcoinJ?
3036 2011-05-24 18:26:03 <ersi> Sage: Learning by failing is some of the best ways of learning :)
3037 2011-05-24 18:26:12 <ersi> And I'm sure diki's going to fail a lot :P

3041 2011-05-24 18:26:38 <ersi> The question is if he's actually going to learn anything from it
3042 2011-05-24 18:26:40 <jrmithdobbs> ersi: but he wont learn from it... so just wasted time, really
3043 2011-05-24 18:26:57 <ersi> Yeah, he's solo-mining in a world of super high difficulty
3044 2011-05-24 18:26:57 <erbs> chipotle is now accepting bitcoins for burritos
3045 2011-05-24 18:27:12 <Sage> really?

3050 2011-05-24 18:27:35 <diki> I don't like that...
3051 2011-05-24 18:27:47 <ersi> Well, poolmining with a bunch of CPU's then
3052 2011-05-24 18:27:53 <diki> proof?
3053 2011-05-24 18:27:59 <diki> My CPU is as idle as it can get

3082 2011-05-24 18:30:28 <erbs> are my coins delicious enough
3083 2011-05-24 18:30:30 <ersi> Ahhhh~

3085 2011-05-24 18:30:40 <TD> could you pastebin your code? you can fiddle the private key obviously
3086 2011-05-24 18:30:51 <TD> and blockexplorer the public key ?
3087 2011-05-24 18:31:03 <BitterTea> This is using the PrivateKeys.java example

3097 2011-05-24 18:32:05 <BitterTea> I'm DLing the chain now with a breakpoint in BlockChain.add, so I can see the transactions before they are discarded
3098 2011-05-24 18:32:08 <TD> BitterTea: what form do you get the private key in? how long is it ?
3099 2011-05-24 18:32:33 <BitterTea> I believe it's base58 encoded
3100 2011-05-24 18:32:48 <BitterTea> There are no problems creating an ECKey from the string
3101 2011-05-24 18:33:25 <TD> how many characters is it ?
3102 2011-05-24 18:33:28 <BitterTea> It "works" fine, it just thinks there's a 0 balance in the wallet
3103 2011-05-24 18:33:37 <TD> yeah
3104 2011-05-24 18:33:46 <TD> ok, let me take a quick look
3105 2011-05-24 18:33:50 <BitterTea> 51 characters
3106 2011-05-24 18:34:07 <ersi> Sage: Aww, but you'll get one! Sooner or later :)
3107 2011-05-24 18:34:11 <BitterTea> It's quite possible I'm missing something blindingly obvious :)
3108 2011-05-24 18:34:24 <TD> ok, sounds about right
3109 2011-05-24 18:34:33 <TD> i presume it prints out the right address when it starts/
3110 2011-05-24 18:35:43 <Sage> ersi: i tried mining with gtx460se at 38mhs.. so i have a balance of 0,27btc :D
3111 2011-05-24 18:35:48 <TD> if so then i guess we broke it. i'll try and test it with one of my own keys tonight

3132 2011-05-24 18:39:16 <BitterTea> I'm used to Visual Studio... is there any way to "set this line as the next to execute"?
3133 2011-05-24 18:39:34 <TD> you mean "run to cursor"?
3134 2011-05-24 18:39:35 <ersi> Sage: Well, it might come down later - depends on if people keep on rushing mining
3135 2011-05-24 18:39:37 <Ramen> Sage: how long did it take you to get .4?

3139 2011-05-24 18:40:21 <Sage> ramen: tbh i have no idea... i was semi-mining since yesterday, but my pc kept crashing, so maybe 3-4 hours
3140 2011-05-24 18:40:48 <Ramen> yeah it's like some new VS feature lol i saw it get demoed with the foundation thing

3145 2011-05-24 18:41:19 <BitterTea> Yeah, .Net lets you do that, it can be useful in debugging
3146 2011-05-24 18:41:35 <Sage> ersi: on the other hand with more people the currency is more secure.. right?
3147 2011-05-24 18:41:37 <ersi> Sage: And there's other ways to earn Bitcoins. I'm available for sysadmin consulting work for example :)
3148 2011-05-24 18:41:43 * TD uses printf style debugging mostly ;)
3149 2011-05-24 18:41:44 <BitterTea> It doesn't actually rewind the state, just lets you set the next line of execution in a blck

3167 2011-05-24 18:44:14 <jrmithdobbs> no they wont, who am I kidding
3168 2011-05-24 18:44:16 <TD> backups aren't enough. you have to test the backups worked
3169 2011-05-24 18:44:18 <Sage> whoa, stable 69°C #1 and 67°C #2... nice clean line in afterburner :D
3170 2011-05-24 18:44:19 <erbs> probably their computer melted down

3186 2011-05-24 18:46:55 <erbs> solo miners are constantly losing their share of the network as new users come on the block... otoh, pools are constantly increasing their share because roughly the same % of new miners will join them
3187 2011-05-24 18:46:56 <Sage> ramen: i tried, yesterday it worked just fine, but today it crashed every time i touched it
3188 2011-05-24 18:47:08 <erbs> so if you're a major solo miner, you should have a pool too
3189 2011-05-24 18:47:39 <Sage> we all should have pools
3190 2011-05-24 18:47:41 <Sage> i love swimming

3205 2011-05-24 18:50:28 <Sage> can anyone help me with downclocking memory? i mean can i downclock it while mining or should i completely clear the gpu before doing anyhitng?
3206 2011-05-24 18:50:31 <BitterTea> I don't, but I'm not jumping to the conclusion that it's llama's fault :)
3207 2011-05-24 18:50:44 <midnightmagic> you can do overclocking while mining is going on.
3208 2011-05-24 18:51:20 <Sage> i do have stable 69°C now so i might give it a try
3209 2011-05-24 18:51:28 <Sage> tho i dont want to destroy the card or something
3210 2011-05-24 18:51:45 <erbs> how much $ does the current hashrate represent, in terms of $'s of GPU hardware necessary to mine at that rate
3211 2011-05-24 18:51:46 <mtrlt> Sage: just downclock it while mining
3212 2011-05-24 18:52:05 <TD> hmm
3213 2011-05-24 18:52:08 <mtrlt> Sage: for me, changing the clocks doesn't even work if poclbm isn't on :p
3214 2011-05-24 18:52:10 <Sage> mtrlt: last time i tried it the pc froze
3215 2011-05-24 18:52:15 <TD> hal had difficulties encoding his private key the first time as well
3216 2011-05-24 18:52:16 <mtrlt> maybe you put it too low
3217 2011-05-24 18:52:26 <TD> do you know how llama extracted and encoded the private keys ?
3218 2011-05-24 18:52:55 <Sage> possible, but it kept crashing every time i changed it today, dunno why

3222 2011-05-24 18:53:38 <Sage> same with 625mh

3224 2011-05-24 18:54:11 <Sage> then i stopped playing with it, it took me fair amount of time to get the pc working properly
3225 2011-05-24 18:54:16 <Namegduf> Why not just stop changing shit
3226 2011-05-24 18:54:17 <Sage> even catalyst wont start now without crashing
3227 2011-05-24 18:54:31 <Namegduf> How much are you *gaining* from this tinkering away from stock?
3228 2011-05-24 18:54:47 <Sage> Namegduf im downclocking it, not overclocking
3229 2011-05-24 18:54:54 <BitterTea> TD: I don't, I assumed it was base58, but I double checked the output of the barcode scan and it seems fine
3230 2011-05-24 18:54:55 <Namegduf> Sage: Then don't!
3231 2011-05-24 18:55:03 <Namegduf> It clearly doesn't like being downclocked, so stop downclocking it
3232 2011-05-24 18:55:11 <Ramen> from what i see online you gain like 10% hash and like 10-20% less power consumption
3233 2011-05-24 18:55:16 <Sage> i want lower temps, yesterday it was at 85
3234 2011-05-24 18:55:20 <BitterTea> The site says to use sipa's key import/export patch
3235 2011-05-24 18:55:29 <grbgout> Well, this is the video, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=koIq58UoNfE , but it's not the exact link that used to be on index.php
3236 2011-05-24 18:55:42 <Namegduf> Sage: Then don't complain if your unsupported hackery causes it to stop working? It doesn't work on all cards, it's not supposed to work
3237 2011-05-24 18:56:10 <Namegduf> The only thing guaranteed to work is stock, if tinkering breaks it you just need to accept those settings do not work on your card.
3238 2011-05-24 18:56:13 <BitterTea> That might be it... http://forum.bitcoin.org/?topic=3906.0
3239 2011-05-24 18:56:20 <Namegduf> This channel isn't going to magically make it all better
3240 2011-05-24 18:56:42 <Sage> Namegduf: it worked just fine yesterday... i mean for fucks sake im trying to help the card so the fan doesnt have to roll at max speed, i dont give a shit about hashrate
3241 2011-05-24 18:56:57 <Namegduf> Sage: It working yesterday says nothing about it being stable in the long run.
3242 2011-05-24 18:57:08 <erbs> i keep my mining rig in a meat locker, surrounding by carcasses.. like in rocky
3243 2011-05-24 18:57:10 <Namegduf> Apparently it isn't. Sorry, no dice, complaining won't make it work.
3244 2011-05-24 18:57:39 <Sage> it worked for 40 minutes, then i had to turn it off..
3245 2011-05-24 18:57:43 <BitterTea> Perhaps it's due to the version and checksum?
3246 2011-05-24 18:57:53 <TD> BitterTea: let me take a look at what the patch produces
3247 2011-05-24 18:57:54 <Namegduf> Yes, that's fairly typical for an unstable tweak.
3248 2011-05-24 18:57:57 <Sage> im not complaining, but maybe someone had the same problem and found a solution
3249 2011-05-24 18:58:02 <Namegduf> There is no solution

3255 2011-05-24 18:58:30 <Namegduf> Your card is behaving precisely like any other card which is not reliable at the given settings, and the only solution is to not use those settings.
3256 2011-05-24 18:58:40 <TD> BitterTea: there are at least two patches from sipa that do this
3257 2011-05-24 18:58:48 <Namegduf> This is pretty standard overclocking/underclocking fare
3258 2011-05-24 18:58:58 <TD> BitterTea: i see
3259 2011-05-24 18:59:08 <TD> BitterTea: sipa invented his own format for this. so the private key has some extra stuff around it
3260 2011-05-24 18:59:41 <TD> BitterTea: You'll have to adjust the PrivateKeys program to understand it. Should not be too hard.
3261 2011-05-24 19:00:05 <TD> if you'd rather not then just mail me with an example privkey (from testnet or that has 0.01 coins in) and i'll fix it

3268 2011-05-24 19:02:56 <TD> see the code in Address.java
3269 2011-05-24 19:03:33 <TD> the right fix is probably to introduce a superclass that Address and ExportedPrivateKey both derive from. they'd pass the expected size of the contents to the super c'tor
3270 2011-05-24 19:04:21 <BitterTea> But instead of containing the has of the public key, this actually contains the private key itself?

3380 2011-05-24 19:44:19 <jrmithdobbs> BitterTea: that is a retarded commercial
3381 2011-05-24 19:44:35 <BitterTea> Result of Base58.decode is 38 bytes. Taking the inner 33 bytes (ignoring the first and last four), converting to BigInteger and loading an ECKey yields a different address.
3382 2011-05-24 19:44:42 <BitterTea> Maybe I need to contact llama...
3383 2011-05-24 19:44:49 <jrmithdobbs> they could have at least paid for someone who could read the lines off the teleprompter like he wasn't reading off a teleprompter
3384 2011-05-24 19:45:13 <BitterTea> jrmithdobbs: I was more concerned about the casual portrayal of no-knock raids
3385 2011-05-24 19:45:21 <sipa> BitterTea: it should be 37 bytes
3386 2011-05-24 19:45:32 <jrmithdobbs> BitterTea: welcome to the war on drugs
3387 2011-05-24 19:45:33 <sipa> and the first one should be 128
3388 2011-05-24 19:45:50 <BitterTea> sipa: It's 0

3392 2011-05-24 19:47:22 <sipa> bah encoded form start with?
3393 2011-05-24 19:47:34 <sipa> which character does the base58-encoded form start with?
3394 2011-05-24 19:48:00 <BitterTea> the first characters are "5JLoTse..."
3395 2011-05-24 19:48:10 <BitterTea> ok, skipping the first TWO bytes gives me the correct private key
3396 2011-05-24 19:48:33 <sipa> was the second decodec byte 128?
3397 2011-05-24 19:48:36 <sipa> *decoded
3398 2011-05-24 19:49:31 <BitterTea> Yeah, but it's signed so showing as -128?

3401 2011-05-24 19:50:24 <sipa> TD: is it possible your decoding function produces a superfluous zero byte in front?
3402 2011-05-24 19:50:38 <TD> yeah it's possibly buggy
3403 2011-05-24 19:50:50 <TD> well almost by definition it is buggy

3407 2011-05-24 19:52:40 <sipa> anyway, the format after base58 decoding should be [128] (256-bit private key) (32-bit checksum)
3408 2011-05-24 19:52:57 <sipa> it seems you got [0] [128] (256-bit private key) (32-bit checksum)

3417 2011-05-24 19:57:07 <TD> hmm
3418 2011-05-24 19:57:18 <TD> actually i'm not sure how this code ever works at all, hehe
3419 2011-05-24 19:57:47 <TD> oh
3420 2011-05-24 19:57:52 <TD> i bet we just got unlucky here
3421 2011-05-24 19:58:03 <TD> so the problem is that BigInteger is represented using twos-compliment notation
3422 2011-05-24 19:58:10 <sipa> aha, a Schrödinbug
3423 2011-05-24 19:58:13 <TD> if the high bit is ever not zero, it'll add an extra zero byte to the end
3424 2011-05-24 19:58:17 <TD> to make the high bit zero again
3425 2011-05-24 19:58:43 <TD> hmmm

3428 2011-05-24 19:59:16 <BitterTea> Is it due to the length of the pubkeyhash vs the length of the private key?
3429 2011-05-24 19:59:18 <TD> i think the fix is just to drop the high byte if it's == zero
3430 2011-05-24 19:59:43 <TD> no
3431 2011-05-24 19:59:50 <TD> it's because the first byte is 128
3432 2011-05-24 19:59:58 <TD> aka 10000000 in binary
3433 2011-05-24 20:00:15 <sipa> of course, you know exactly how long it should be after decoding (37 bytes)
3434 2011-05-24 20:00:27 <TD> sipa: could you give me a test key exported with your patch?
3435 2011-05-24 20:00:32 <TD> i'll write a unit test for it and fix this

3441 2011-05-24 20:03:15 <dinox> Hmm, does long polling depend on bitcoind?
3442 2011-05-24 20:03:17 <sipa> (version byte 239)
3443 2011-05-24 20:03:22 <TD> that should work too

3450 2011-05-24 20:06:24 <neoeinstein_> When the MSB of the big integer is set, the big integer should be interpreted as negative. Otherwise it will put that marker byte in the front (effectively shows don't sign-extend this bit)

3541 2011-05-24 20:31:42 <BlueMatt> if the power goes back and forth out of spec, it can damage your hardware over time

3553 2011-05-24 20:37:20 <erbs> anyway its exactly the kind of smear attack the cia would do - something out of a hollywood movie. get a maid to seduce the guy, then report it as rape. seeing as how the whole incident happened just days after the IMF criticised the US growing debt as grave and unsustainable
3554 2011-05-24 20:37:20 <TD> sipa: it'd have been convenient if the exported key contained the block number it first appeared in too
3555 2011-05-24 20:37:33 <TD> sipa: i know the client doesn't currently track that
3556 2011-05-24 20:38:20 <BitterTea> to do a selective rescan?

3561 2011-05-24 20:40:37 <BitterTea> For this use case, the private key doesn't even need to be in the wallet

3563 2011-05-24 20:41:17 <BitterTea> All you need to do is create the transaction signing with the private key, no?
3564 2011-05-24 20:41:30 <BitterTea> There's no way to know the balance of the account though
3565 2011-05-24 20:41:38 <TD> you need to have a copy of the transactions you want to spend
3566 2011-05-24 20:41:42 <retinal> [13:09:30] <BitterTea> I've posted a picture of the opened Bitbill: http://forum.bitcoin.org/index.php?topic=7724.msg139734#msg139734

3573 2011-05-24 20:42:53 <luke-jr> lol

3586 2011-05-24 20:45:43 <sipa> TD: i actually intended the json format to be used in qr codes
3587 2011-05-24 20:45:49 <luke-jr> gjs278: KVM
3588 2011-05-24 20:45:56 <TD> would they fit?
3589 2011-05-24 20:46:00 <sipa> sure
3590 2011-05-24 20:46:01 <gjs278> ok
3591 2011-05-24 20:46:15 <TD> hmmm. qrcodes are more reliable if they have less data in them, afaik ...
3592 2011-05-24 20:46:51 <sipa> actually, maybe a base36-encoded format could be defined (you know.. the nice thing about standards is that there are so many to choose from), that'd be optimal for QR
3593 2011-05-24 20:47:39 <sipa> TD: ideally it'd contain a private key, a txid, a txoutput#, and a merkle path to a block, of which the height or id is given :)
3594 2011-05-24 20:48:01 <TD> sipa: well a key can have many txns sending coins to it
3595 2011-05-24 20:48:12 <TD> so it seems like it may not scale to try and cram all that into a qrcode
3596 2011-05-24 20:48:18 <TD> a range of blocks seems better
3597 2011-05-24 20:48:21 <luke-jr> sipa: IMO, privkey and height is sufficient
3598 2011-05-24 20:48:42 <sipa> there are two "modes" actually
3599 2011-05-24 20:48:51 <sipa> either you know all transactions at the time of the export

3607 2011-05-24 20:49:31 <luke-jr> you can never be SURE a later block won't use it
3608 2011-05-24 20:49:38 <sipa> of course
3609 2011-05-24 20:49:46 <sipa> but you can know it didn't
3610 2011-05-24 20:49:48 <luke-jr> so you can onyl specify starting block height
3611 2011-05-24 20:49:51 <sipa> eg. for a bitbill
3612 2011-05-24 20:50:09 <sipa> allowing a much faster import and compatibility with headers-only clients
3613 2011-05-24 20:50:20 <BitterTea> Am I the only one that's had a difficult time adjusting the the "real names" initiative?
3614 2011-05-24 20:50:21 <luke-jr> sipa: I can scan the pubkey on a stranger's bitbill and send him a tip before it's redeemed
3615 2011-05-24 20:50:35 <luke-jr> BitterTea: huh?

3618 2011-05-24 20:50:39 <TD> sipa: a range of blocks would do the same
3619 2011-05-24 20:50:50 <TD> BitterTea: you mean because you don't know who people are anymore?
3620 2011-05-24 20:50:56 <sipa> TD: how do you mean?

3625 2011-05-24 20:52:12 <luke-jr> requiring everyone who uses bitcoin to share their real name?
3626 2011-05-24 20:52:15 <BitterTea> Lots of people, most of the developers are using their real names on the forum now
3627 2011-05-24 20:52:20 <BitterTea> No, voluntarily
3628 2011-05-24 20:52:44 <mtrlt> i see no point in using one's real name on the internets.
3629 2011-05-24 20:52:54 <BitterTea> On other forums I've used, when you change your name, your old one shows up as a title for a period of time
3630 2011-05-24 20:52:57 <mtrlt> what does it matter what someone's name is?

3641 2011-05-24 20:54:58 <luke-jr> sipa: better to binary-format it
3642 2011-05-24 20:55:12 <sipa> binary data in QR is a mess a badly supported
3643 2011-05-24 20:55:16 <luke-jr> {}[] are going to put it into binary mode anyway
3644 2011-05-24 20:55:21 <sipa> that's true
3645 2011-05-24 20:55:58 <sipa> if you'd make a QR-specific format, i'd use a binary thing encoded as base36
3646 2011-05-24 20:56:19 <sipa> with block height and private key in it
3647 2011-05-24 20:56:24 <luke-jr> can QR-Codes support new non-standard "modes"?

3654 2011-05-24 20:57:22 <sipa> that'd put qr in alphanumeric mode, which is very efficient

3661 2011-05-24 20:59:37 <BitterTea> looks like it's less efficient though (2335 vs 4296 characters)
3662 2011-05-24 21:00:04 <sipa> bytes or characters?
3663 2011-05-24 21:00:21 <sipa> qr supports 2953 bytes

3706 2011-05-24 21:25:16 <BlueMatt> for future reference ^
3707 2011-05-24 21:25:36 <BitterTea> What is it that's causing the difficulty in getting connections? Has it been identified?
3708 2011-05-24 21:25:50 <sipa> BlueMatt: on my home machine (also ubuntu 10.10 amd64) wx2.8 is also noticably slower
3709 2011-05-24 21:25:54 <sipa> + scrolling
3710 2011-05-24 21:26:30 <BlueMatt> BitterTea: mostly just the percent of nodes which do not accept incoming connections and the amount of turnover on the network atm
3711 2011-05-24 21:26:32 <yasha2> so if you wanted to build a new test network, with new genesis block... would the absolute minimum people in network be 2?
3712 2011-05-24 21:26:59 <sipa> BlueMatt: it takes 9s to scroll 88 steps
3713 2011-05-24 21:27:01 <BurningToad1> my home node was at 117 connections the other day :0
3714 2011-05-24 21:27:12 <yasha2> just 2 addresses, basicly
3715 2011-05-24 21:27:31 <BlueMatt> sipa: I dont get it...scrolling should never be slow, it isnt even handled by the program, that is all gtk
3716 2011-05-24 21:27:35 <BlueMatt> not even wx
3717 2011-05-24 21:27:38 <sipa> i know
3718 2011-05-24 21:27:41 <BlueMatt> though switching tabs might be
3719 2011-05-24 21:27:42 <BitterTea> yasha2: I think only one node is truly necessary, but boring :)
3720 2011-05-24 21:27:58 <yasha2> one node could only send to itself, ya?
3721 2011-05-24 21:27:59 <sipa> and no it's not a debug version i've linked with
3722 2011-05-24 21:28:11 <sipa> BlueMatt: it's with the ubuntu-supplied wx2.8 though
3723 2011-05-24 21:28:17 <BlueMatt> sipa: as is mine
3724 2011-05-24 21:28:22 <yasha2> heh
3725 2011-05-24 21:28:24 <yasha2> so 2 nodes makes a 'real'  network
3726 2011-05-24 21:28:53 <yasha2> 192.168.2.1  and 192.168.2.2
3727 2011-05-24 21:29:39 <BitterTea> Well, the only fundamental difference is that with one node, you'll never have any connections (obviously), but you can still "broadcast" txs and generate blocks to confirm those txs
3728 2011-05-24 21:30:03 <yasha2> hmm.. true
3729 2011-05-24 21:30:20 <yasha2> i wonder what would happen to difficulty
3730 2011-05-24 21:31:24 <BitterTea> It would act as normal
3731 2011-05-24 21:31:37 <BitterTea> Every 2016 blocks you create you'd recalculate and continue

3734 2011-05-24 21:32:09 <BitterTea> You're not really a central banker, just a Satoshi :)

3737 2011-05-24 21:32:33 <ssas> hey i just found out what bitcoin is
3738 2011-05-24 21:32:38 <yasha2> true true
3739 2011-05-24 21:32:53 <ssas> how many coins are left
3740 2011-05-24 21:32:59 <yasha2> a lot
3741 2011-05-24 21:33:12 <SerajewelKS> ssas: about 1/4 of them
3742 2011-05-24 21:33:15 <SerajewelKS> erm
3743 2011-05-24 21:33:15 <SerajewelKS> 3/4
3744 2011-05-24 21:33:36 <ssas> so around 9 million coins
3745 2011-05-24 21:33:36 <BitterTea> ssas: What do you mean by "left"?
3746 2011-05-24 21:33:38 <yasha2> There will be 21 million
3747 2011-05-24 21:33:44 <yasha2> and then no more
3748 2011-05-24 21:33:45 <ssas> i thought there are 12
3749 2011-05-24 21:33:50 <SerajewelKS> ssas: 21
3750 2011-05-24 21:34:01 <BitterTea> If you were ask how much gold is left, do you mean how much is available to purchase, or how much has yet to be mined from the earth?
3751 2011-05-24 21:34:02 <SerajewelKS> ssas: so closer to 15 million left
3752 2011-05-24 21:34:14 <jivvz> quite exactly 70% left
3753 2011-05-24 21:34:18 <yasha2> the person who generates the last coin gets a prize
3754 2011-05-24 21:34:27 <ssas> by what rate it is "deplete"
3755 2011-05-24 21:34:40 <BitterTea> yasha2: Yes, .00000001 BTC :)
3756 2011-05-24 21:34:42 <ssas> depleting
3757 2011-05-24 21:34:47 <yasha2> you mean at what rate are new coins generated?
3758 2011-05-24 21:34:57 <BitterTea> 300 BTC per hour
3759 2011-05-24 21:34:58 <ssas> no are found
3760 2011-05-24 21:34:59 <sipa> BlueMatt: i'm trying to find out whether any bitcoin-code is invoked while scrolling
3761 2011-05-24 21:35:07 <sipa> BlueMatt: but it doesn't seem to be the case
3762 2011-05-24 21:35:14 <BlueMatt> sipa: ok, I just booted yet another completely clean ubuntu vm of 10.04.2 and I have no problems using the 1000-tx wallet from earlier
3763 2011-05-24 21:35:14 <BitterTea> until 2012, then 150 BTC per hour, halving every ~4 years
3764 2011-05-24 21:35:22 <yasha2> on average
3765 2011-05-24 21:35:24 <ssas> i see
3766 2011-05-24 21:35:49 <SerajewelKS> hmm, what's the difference between CBlockIndex::nHeight and CBlockIndex::nBlockPos?
3767 2011-05-24 21:35:51 <yasha2> so mining just before a difficulty jump must be ' prime season '
3768 2011-05-24 21:36:08 <ssas> so what are the odds if u got a normal laptop to get  a coin?
3769 2011-05-24 21:36:09 <SerajewelKS> yasha2: no
3770 2011-05-24 21:36:19 <SerajewelKS> ssas: close to zero
3771 2011-05-24 21:36:35 <BitterTea> yasha2: Doing so increases the difficulty by a larger amount, so it would actually be right *after* a difficulty increase, I think
3772 2011-05-24 21:36:46 <yasha2> by yourself, close to zero.  if you join a pool, in a few months

3774 2011-05-24 21:36:55 <yasha2> ah
3775 2011-05-24 21:37:07 <yasha2> that would be important to time right!
3776 2011-05-24 21:37:07 <BitterTea> Well, you might not *ever* get a WHOLE BTC from mining on a laptop CPU
3777 2011-05-24 21:37:14 <ssas> and what is the exchange rate to let say a dlooar atm
3778 2011-05-24 21:37:15 <ssas> ?
3779 2011-05-24 21:37:23 <BitterTea> ;;bc,mtgox

3783 2011-05-24 21:38:29 <SerajewelKS> so there are no bitcoin developers other than me here right now?
3784 2011-05-24 21:38:42 <Pilate> like the actual client developers?
3785 2011-05-24 21:38:51 <yasha2> bittertea: with pool, you could get 1.00 BTC within a 'reasonable'  time
3786 2011-05-24 21:39:05 <BitterTea> Are you taking into account difficulty increases?

3790 2011-05-24 21:40:44 <SerajewelKS> Pilate: yes, i'm trying to ask a development-related question, which is what i thought this channel was for
3791 2011-05-24 21:40:57 <BurningToad1> lost the 1 connection I had :(
3792 2011-05-24 21:41:30 <SerajewelKS> if you're asking general questions about bitcoin, please use #bitcoin
3793 2011-05-24 21:41:45 <SerajewelKS> if you're asking about bitcoin mining, please use #bitcoin-mining
3794 2011-05-24 21:41:49 <sipa> SerajewelKS: quite sure i count as developer
3795 2011-05-24 21:42:18 <SerajewelKS> hmm, what's the difference between CBlockIndex::nHeight and CBlockIndex::nBlockPos?  <--
3796 2011-05-24 21:43:20 <sipa> nBlockPos is the position in the file
3797 2011-05-24 21:43:26 <sipa> nHeight is the number of the block
3798 2011-05-24 21:43:31 <SerajewelKS> aha
3799 2011-05-24 21:43:37 Incitatus has joined
3800 2011-05-24 21:43:39 <ssas> what is the exchange rate 1btc / dollar

3803 2011-05-24 21:45:25 <SerajewelKS> sipa: so, if nHeight != 0, then "1 + nBestHeight - nHeight" would be how deep the block is
3804 2011-05-24 21:45:45 <sipa> SerajewelKS: ?
3805 2011-05-24 21:45:48 <SerajewelKS> with 1 being the current best block
3806 2011-05-24 21:45:55 <sipa> oh
3807 2011-05-24 21:45:59 <sipa> yes
3808 2011-05-24 21:46:02 <sipa> that's called the depth
3809 2011-05-24 21:46:09 <SerajewelKS> ok cool, i think that's all i need to finish this patch
3810 2011-05-24 21:46:17 <sipa> what are you implementing?
3811 2011-05-24 21:46:21 <SerajewelKS> there don't seem to be many methods for calculating these metrics
3812 2011-05-24 21:46:33 <SerajewelKS> i'm revising my "lastsinceblock" patch
3813 2011-05-24 21:46:43 <SerajewelKS> so that it doesn't depend on having all of the block data locally
3814 2011-05-24 21:47:00 <BlueMatt> sipa: nope, on 11.04 it lags none, no matter the window size
3815 2011-05-24 21:47:06 <BlueMatt> arg this is really pissing me off
3816 2011-05-24 21:47:24 <sipa> maybe i should try upgrading to 11.04
3817 2011-05-24 21:47:27 <BlueMatt> no
3818 2011-05-24 21:47:33 <BlueMatt> because it doesnt happen on 10.04 either
3819 2011-05-24 21:47:37 <BlueMatt> (afaict)
3820 2011-05-24 21:47:39 nutcase has joined
3821 2011-05-24 21:47:52 <BlueMatt> maybe it is some kind of gtk setting?
3822 2011-05-24 21:48:08 <BlueMatt> like a specific themeing crap going on that isnt applied to wx2.9?
3823 2011-05-24 21:48:16 <BlueMatt> also, what compile flags did you use on wx2.9?
3824 2011-05-24 21:48:31 <sipa> just the normal makefile.unix
3825 2011-05-24 21:48:54 <sipa> complete normal git master build

3831 2011-05-24 21:49:23 <TD> oh, forgot to mention, that revision also fixes PrivateKeys so it can understand bitbills
3832 2011-05-24 21:49:30 <sipa> nice!

3834 2011-05-24 21:49:43 <BlueMatt> sipa: what about wx compile flags?
3835 2011-05-24 21:51:06 <sipa> g++ -c -O2 -Wno-invalid-offsetof -Wformat -DNOPCH -DFOURWAYSSE2 -DUSE_SSL -I/usr/lib/wx/include/gtk2-unicode-release-2.8 -I/usr/include/wx-2.8 -D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 -D_LARGE_FILES -D__WXGTK__ -pthread -DGUI -o obj/ui.o ui.cpp
3836 2011-05-24 21:51:19 <BlueMatt> no I mean how you built wx2.9?
3837 2011-05-24 21:51:24 <BlueMatt> the ./configure flags?
3838 2011-05-24 21:51:41 <BlueMatt> 2.9 or 2.9.1
3839 2011-05-24 21:51:43 <sipa> 2.9? does that matter, if it's fast?
3840 2011-05-24 21:51:50 <sipa> let me check
3841 2011-05-24 21:52:01 <BlueMatt> probably not, but at this point Im just at a loss

3844 2011-05-24 21:53:36 <sipa> is the wx2.9 thing
3845 2011-05-24 21:53:45 <BlueMatt> no didnt you build ws2.9 yourself?
3846 2011-05-24 21:53:55 <sipa> yes i did, but just ./configure i believe
3847 2011-05-24 21:53:59 <BlueMatt> when you built wx...all that time ago

3852 2011-05-24 21:54:33 <BlueMatt> ie did you just follow build-unix.txt?
3853 2011-05-24 21:54:39 alystair has joined
3854 2011-05-24 21:55:13 <BlueMatt> ok, what is the sha256 of your bitcoin after you strip it (current repo version) amd64
3855 2011-05-24 21:55:25 bitanarchy has joined
3856 2011-05-24 21:55:25 <sipa> wx2.8?
3857 2011-05-24 21:55:29 <BlueMatt> yea
3858 2011-05-24 21:55:30 <sipa> or wx2.9?
3859 2011-05-24 21:55:54 <BlueMatt> also is it 1579784 bytes?
3860 2011-05-24 21:56:03 <sipa> sec, building wx2.8 again
3861 2011-05-24 21:56:07 <bitanarchy> When will reserve private keys be added to the wallet file by the bitcoin client, so that the wallet does not change at every bitcoin spend?
3862 2011-05-24 21:56:28 <SerajewelKS> bitanarchy: it already does...
3863 2011-05-24 21:56:39 <SerajewelKS> bitanarchy: 100 keys are pre-generated and stored in the wallet for that reason
3864 2011-05-24 21:57:32 <bitanarchy> SerajewelKS: sins which version is that?
3865 2011-05-24 21:57:44 <SerajewelKS> bitanarchy: i don't know.  it's been this way for at least a few months, probably longer.
3866 2011-05-24 21:57:51 <sipa> BlueMatt: 2363128 bytes here
3867 2011-05-24 21:58:03 <BlueMatt> sipa: after strip?
3868 2011-05-24 21:58:19 <sipa> no before; strip -s bitcoin ?
3869 2011-05-24 21:58:29 <BlueMatt> strip bitcoin
3870 2011-05-24 21:58:36 <bitanarchy> Remember that guy that spend 1 bitcoin to test if his backuped wallet worked?
3871 2011-05-24 21:58:46 <bitanarchy> Het had BTC8000 in his wallet
3872 2011-05-24 21:58:47 <sipa> with strip -s it's 1891216
3873 2011-05-24 21:58:57 <BlueMatt> wow, you have a ton more than me
3874 2011-05-24 21:59:01 <BlueMatt> why is yours bigger?
3875 2011-05-24 21:59:20 <sipa> with just strip it's also 1891216
3876 2011-05-24 21:59:37 <BlueMatt> yea strip -s == strip (I think)
3877 2011-05-24 21:59:56 <BlueMatt> with upnp?
3878 2011-05-24 22:00:06 <BlueMatt> so just make -f makefile.unix?
3879 2011-05-24 22:00:19 <bitanarchy> SerajewelKS: So does the bitcoin client warn you when the pre-generated keys are finished and it is creating new ones?
3880 2011-05-24 22:00:21 <sipa> $ make -f makefile.unix USE_UPNP=0
3881 2011-05-24 22:00:29 <SerajewelKS> bitanarchy: no, because it always is
3882 2011-05-24 22:00:32 <sipa> bitanarchy: it creates them continuously
3883 2011-05-24 22:00:40 <SerajewelKS> bitanarchy: as soon as you use one of the keys in the pool, it starts generating another
3884 2011-05-24 22:00:58 <SerajewelKS> bitanarchy: it's basically a ring buffer of keys
3885 2011-05-24 22:01:10 <sipa> BlueMatt: but you're using 11.04?
3886 2011-05-24 22:01:12 <BlueMatt> I get 2033216 then 1579784 after strip
3887 2011-05-24 22:01:16 <bitanarchy> SerajewelKS: But that undermines the whole idea of the pre-generated keys
3888 2011-05-24 22:01:19 <TD> sipa: any plans to do a gui for import/export of keys?
3889 2011-05-24 22:01:21 <SerajewelKS> bitanarchy: no it doesn't
3890 2011-05-24 22:01:21 <BlueMatt> shouldnt make a huge difference, at least not this much
3891 2011-05-24 22:01:38 <bitanarchy> SerajewelKS: How do you know when you need to backup your wallet again?
3892 2011-05-24 22:02:02 <SerajewelKS> bitanarchy: you should be backing up a lot more frequently than every 100 transactions...
3893 2011-05-24 22:02:05 <sipa> bitanarchy: bitcoin getinfo will tell you the date the oldest pool key was generated
3894 2011-05-24 22:02:45 <BlueMatt> sipa: can you send me your build?
3895 2011-05-24 22:03:15 <sipa> TD: i don't really have any intention to learn wx :)
3896 2011-05-24 22:03:47 <TD> nobody seems to want to change the gui
3897 2011-05-24 22:03:51 <TD> is it really so awkward?
3898 2011-05-24 22:03:54 * TD never looked at wx
3899 2011-05-24 22:04:08 <BlueMatt> no, its really not
3900 2011-05-24 22:04:10 <bitanarchy> You don''t want to know the oldest key in the unused key ring, but the date of the newest key in the used key ring. If that one is newer than your backuped walled, your backup is useless
3901 2011-05-24 22:04:42 <SerajewelKS> bitanarchy: if oldest key is newer than your backup, it's time to back up again
3902 2011-05-24 22:05:31 jivvz has quit (Read error: Connection reset by peer)
3903 2011-05-24 22:05:37 <TD> sipa: ok. i'm wondering how to close the loop on this bitbills thing
3904 2011-05-24 22:05:46 <TD> requiring users to run command line tools to reclaim their bills is a non-starter
3905 2011-05-24 22:05:51 <sipa> agree
3906 2011-05-24 22:05:57 <SerajewelKS> TD: they can sell the bills back to the company
3907 2011-05-24 22:06:14 <sipa> or to anyone who trusts the issuer, actually
3908 2011-05-24 22:06:16 <TD> i guess it has to be a mobile app, really. otherwise i'm not sure how you'd get the contents of the qrcode through to your pc
3909 2011-05-24 22:06:18 <bitanarchy> SerajewelKS: Do you mean oldest key in your unused key ring?
3910 2011-05-24 22:06:25 <SerajewelKS> bitanarchy: of course
3911 2011-05-24 22:06:43 <TD> but that's annoying because of the need to download the full chain
3912 2011-05-24 22:06:56 <SerajewelKS> TD: ?
3913 2011-05-24 22:07:02 <BlueMatt> sipa: no scrolling issues of your build here
3914 2011-05-24 22:07:03 <SerajewelKS> TD: why does a qr-code reader need the blockchain
3915 2011-05-24 22:07:12 <sipa> it doesn't
3916 2011-05-24 22:07:13 <TD> sipa: would you consider making the format [version][uint32 earliest_block][uint32 latest_block][key][checksum] ?
3917 2011-05-24 22:07:31 <TD> for bitbills the two numbers would be equal
3918 2011-05-24 22:07:34 <sipa> SerajewelKS: but you need to rescan to find any transactions done to its address
3919 2011-05-24 22:07:39 <TD> you only need to download a single block
3920 2011-05-24 22:07:51 <SerajewelKS> sipa: right, but --> < TD> i guess it has to be a mobile app, really. otherwise i'm not sure how you'd get the contents of the qrcode through to your pc
3921 2011-05-24 22:07:57 <SerajewelKS> this statement is wrong
3922 2011-05-24 22:08:11 <TD> SerajewelKS: to redeem the bills you need to be able to spend the transaction
3923 2011-05-24 22:08:25 <SerajewelKS> TD: right.  what's that got to do with scanning qr codes?
3924 2011-05-24 22:08:30 <TD> SerajewelKS: if you're happy with copy/pasting what you see on your phones screen into a command line window on a pc, no problem
3925 2011-05-24 22:08:34 <sipa> SerajewelKS: unless TD is lying and he *is* sure about how to do it, the statement is not wrong :)
3926 2011-05-24 22:08:49 <SerajewelKS> TD: heard of digital cameras?
3927 2011-05-24 22:08:51 <TD> if you want it to be fully done on the phone, need to process the chain
3928 2011-05-24 22:08:58 <sipa> SerajewelKS: too inconvient
3929 2011-05-24 22:09:03 <sipa> *inconvenient
3930 2011-05-24 22:09:09 <TD> i wouldn't know what app to use to scan a qrcode on mac/windows
3931 2011-05-24 22:09:11 <TD> i'm sure they exist
3932 2011-05-24 22:09:14 <SerajewelKS> webcam?
3933 2011-05-24 22:09:18 <SerajewelKS> srsly
3934 2011-05-24 22:09:28 <SerajewelKS> there are plenty of F/LOSS QR-code readers that will take webcam input

3936 2011-05-24 22:09:30 <hybriz_> hi
3937 2011-05-24 22:09:32 <SerajewelKS> hold it up to your laptop's cam
3938 2011-05-24 22:09:37 <hybriz_> is the developer of mybitcoin.com here ?
3939 2011-05-24 22:09:37 <sipa> TD: the barcode scan thing used on android has a normal java version too
3940 2011-05-24 22:09:43 <sipa> hybriz_: not that i know
3941 2011-05-24 22:09:44 <TD> zxing?
3942 2011-05-24 22:09:47 <sipa> yes
3943 2011-05-24 22:10:00 <hybriz_> i found some things that i wanted to share with him
3944 2011-05-24 22:10:03 <sipa> but still - way too inconvenient
3945 2011-05-24 22:10:09 <sipa> hybriz_: use the in-app message feature
3946 2011-05-24 22:10:18 <SerajewelKS> it's not inconvenient because of the qr-code scanner
3947 2011-05-24 22:10:22 <TD> sipa: the chain boundaries would be useful anyway
3948 2011-05-24 22:10:28 <sipa> yes i agree
3949 2011-05-24 22:10:34 <hybriz_> yeah i did, thought it could be faster through here
3950 2011-05-24 22:10:49 <SerajewelKS> if you think that's inconvenient you need to take a step back.  cutting up a bitbill to extract a piece of paper is more inconvenient than running a program and holding up a paper to your webcam.
3951 2011-05-24 22:10:54 <SerajewelKS> that's the easy part
3952 2011-05-24 22:12:06 <SerajewelKS> i'd think it would be more of a pain to go get your phone, install some app, scan a code, yadda yadda
3953 2011-05-24 22:12:17 <TD> yeah, obviously, i'm assuming at some point the bitbills will get easier
3954 2011-05-24 22:12:32 <TD> (to open)
3955 2011-05-24 22:12:41 <TD> long term i think mobile wallets will be pretty common
3956 2011-05-24 22:12:47 <SerajewelKS> there's no reason someone couldn't code a GUI program that accesses your webcam and uses a F/LOSS QR-code parsing library to do all the key importing in one step
3957 2011-05-24 22:12:53 <TD> so being able to directly scan the money into your phone would be helpful
3958 2011-05-24 22:12:54 <SerajewelKS> open bitbill, hold paper up to cam, done
3959 2011-05-24 22:12:56 <SerajewelKS> no phone needed
3960 2011-05-24 22:13:07 <TD> sure, it can also be done this way
3961 2011-05-24 22:13:15 <TD> your bitcoin will need to be listening on the rpc port mind you
3962 2011-05-24 22:13:25 <TD> does it listen on localhost by default? i thought not
3963 2011-05-24 22:13:28 <x5x> do qr codes have a checksum ?
3964 2011-05-24 22:13:29 <SerajewelKS> or not running
3965 2011-05-24 22:13:33 <TD> because of web security issues
3966 2011-05-24 22:13:34 <sipa> TD: so you'd suggest a 45-byte sequence?
3967 2011-05-24 22:13:35 <SerajewelKS> x5x: yes, and error-correction data
3968 2011-05-24 22:13:38 <sipa> base58-encoded
3969 2011-05-24 22:13:46 <x5x> cool
3970 2011-05-24 22:13:51 <TD> sipa: yeah something like that
3971 2011-05-24 22:14:14 <TD> not sure. anyway, heading to bed.
3972 2011-05-24 22:14:27 <lfm> td bitcoind listens ofro prc localhost by default, bitcoin (gui) does not
3973 2011-05-24 22:15:11 <SerajewelKS> bitcoind doesn't listen at all by default
3974 2011-05-24 22:15:16 <sipa> TD: thing is, i prefer the private key format to be not more than just a private key - if you need meta-data around it, there is the wallet dump format
3975 2011-05-24 22:15:17 <SerajewelKS> because it has no user/password configured by default

3992 2011-05-24 22:24:09 <bitanarchy> is that 8MB of ip addresses?

3997 2011-05-24 22:25:03 <bitanarchy> then how come that I had to add nodes manually with the -addnode switch to make bitcoin client download the blocks... and still it has only 2 connections
3998 2011-05-24 22:25:24 <phantomcircuit> bitanarchy, the initial connections code is lol broken
3999 2011-05-24 22:25:47 <BlueMatt> not really, justt not working

4005 2011-05-24 22:27:30 <BlueMatt> code doesnt need rewrite, just dnsseeds
4006 2011-05-24 22:27:33 <BlueMatt> (backend)
4007 2011-05-24 22:27:41 <BlueMatt> and dnsseed needs to be on by default
4008 2011-05-24 22:28:02 <lfm> bluematt is there any reason for nodes with NO incoming to advertise on irc?
4009 2011-05-24 22:28:04 <phantomcircuit> needs to have much smaller connect timeouts
4010 2011-05-24 22:28:17 <BlueMatt> lfm: nope, yet they do
4011 2011-05-24 22:28:18 <bitanarchy> I copied the config dir from windows client v3.17 to linux v3.21 to speed up....
4012 2011-05-24 22:28:19 <phantomcircuit> lfm, only way to get the list of nodes on irc
4013 2011-05-24 22:28:28 <phantomcircuit> lfm, they're one and the same
4014 2011-05-24 22:28:32 <lfm> thats what I thot
4015 2011-05-24 22:28:34 <BlueMatt> lfm: but you cant know if you can get incoming until you advertise and try
4016 2011-05-24 22:28:44 <bitanarchy> hope that will not give any problems
4017 2011-05-24 22:29:18 <bitanarchy> lfm: about an hour

4023 2011-05-24 22:31:46 <lfm> bitanarchy there is bitcoind -help and bitcoind help (without the dash) try both
4024 2011-05-24 22:31:47 <sipa> but you need either bitcoind or bitcoin -server running

4030 2011-05-24 22:33:32 <sipa> same as bitcoin -server, but without GUI
4031 2011-05-24 22:33:42 <bitanarchy> what does bitcoin -server do?
4032 2011-05-24 22:33:55 <lfm> bitanarchy: for gui only really

4037 2011-05-24 22:35:33 <lfm> bitanarchy: okk, you have been running the gui then eh?
4038 2011-05-24 22:35:49 <bitanarchy> what is the rpcpassword for?
4039 2011-05-24 22:36:04 <meLon> Is there anything that prevents my 'pool' from competing for processing the same blocks as another pool?

4043 2011-05-24 22:36:53 <sipa> as that would effectively give them access to your savings
4044 2011-05-24 22:37:04 <bitanarchy> what is the daemon for?
4045 2011-05-24 22:37:14 <sipa> sorry, daemon = server
4046 2011-05-24 22:37:27 <bitanarchy> what is the server for then?
4047 2011-05-24 22:37:34 <sipa> to manage your wallet
4048 2011-05-24 22:37:37 <sipa> same as the GUI
4049 2011-05-24 22:37:45 <sipa> but without the GUI
4050 2011-05-24 22:37:51 <bitanarchy> you mean remote management of the wallet? why?
4051 2011-05-24 22:37:51 <sipa> you send it commands
4052 2011-05-24 22:37:52 <meLon> bitanarchy, you set up a daemon to gather 'blocks'  Then you use clients to connect to YOUR daemon to get those blocks and process them
4053 2011-05-24 22:38:01 <sipa> meLon: no
4054 2011-05-24 22:38:10 <sipa> the daemon manages your wallet

4059 2011-05-24 22:38:39 <sipa> you're talking about a miner
4060 2011-05-24 22:38:46 <bitanarchy> so the gui also start up the daemon?
4061 2011-05-24 22:38:59 <sipa> bitanarchy: forget the word daemon, it's just a server

4065 2011-05-24 22:39:14 <sipa> and it starts the server if you pass it -server at start time

4284 2011-05-24 23:33:06 <jgarzik> at -rc4, the preference even for bug fixes is to wait until version+1, so as to avoid perturbing -rc test results as much as possible.  trying to ape the kernel's model of "only regression fixes during later -rc"

4293 2011-05-24 23:35:05 <jgarzik> BlueMatt: zh_CN (mainland china) or zh_TW (taiwan)

4303 2011-05-24 23:37:03 <jgarzik> BlueMatt: he's ok with the revert?  mainly want to maintain friendly relations with an older member of the community, and would prefer not to revert without his assent.
