   2 2011-06-13 00:00:20 <xtalmath> since DHMO is the most studied molecule, and the government is doing nothing, they must be in on it...
   3 2011-06-13 00:00:33 <ArdaXi> xelister: If electrolysis is applied, even stronger bombs can be made.
   4 2011-06-13 00:00:51 <OneFixt> dhmo has recently been involved in a torturing prisoners
   5 2011-06-13 00:01:05 <ArtForzZz> recently? ;)
   6 2011-06-13 00:01:07 <xtalmath> apparently Titanic sank due to solidified DHMO
   7 2011-06-13 00:01:12 <ArdaXi> It's even used in cruel animal trials.
   8 2011-06-13 00:01:15 <OneFixt> just now, in fact

  12 2011-06-13 00:01:40 <OneFixt> ok ok, it's been used for torture since the beginning of time
  13 2011-06-13 00:01:43 <ArtForzZz> yep
  14 2011-06-13 00:01:44 <xtalmath> comets contain DHMO
  15 2011-06-13 00:01:58 <ArdaXi> There is even solid DHMO on the moon!
  16 2011-06-13 00:02:03 <xtalmath> and leave a galactic chem trail of DHMO
  17 2011-06-13 00:02:11 <ArtForzZz> recent nasa studies suggest the moon also contains large amounts of dhmo
  18 2011-06-13 00:02:11 <xelister> even kids are making bombs with dhmo

  38 2011-06-13 00:03:58 <XX01XX> You know... four times as many kids are accidentally killed by DHMO each year than are accidentally killed by firearms

 100 2011-06-13 00:16:49 <forrestv> xtalmath, if you can access the blockchain you're already connected to nodes ...

 103 2011-06-13 00:17:11 <eamon> is Poclbm-mod still better than poclbm?
 104 2011-06-13 00:17:27 <forrestv> xtalmath, the client stores addresses and connects to those at startup, not just the bootstrap ones
 105 2011-06-13 00:17:49 <xtalmath> ah...
 106 2011-06-13 00:18:11 <xtalmath> then why do I never have more than say 8 nodes?

 274 2011-06-13 01:59:17 <clojure> gmaxwell, isn't that _if_ you solve the block before other on the network do?
 275 2011-06-13 01:59:27 <peter345978> It's just not clear to me what miners are doing on testnet. I think there must be only one or two GPU machines active.
 276 2011-06-13 02:00:17 <gmaxwell> clojure: Nah, thats not how it works. It's not a race. There is no limit on how many blocks can be solved. So someone can solve before you and then you can go on to solve a second later.
 277 2011-06-13 02:00:53 <gmaxwell> clojure: there is no work lost when a block is solved by someone else (as there is no work conserved at all when you make a failed attempt)
 278 2011-06-13 02:01:41 <clojure> gmaxwell, interesting. I asked a similar question yesterday and I understood from the answer that it was a race.
 279 2011-06-13 02:02:01 <clojure> Only the client who brodcasts the right answer to the p2p gets the 50 coins
 280 2011-06-13 02:02:18 <gmaxwell> clojure: the reason to not cpu mine is that you'll get very little (perhaps less than the power cost depending on the CPU and power prices), not none at all though.. and only because it's slow in an absolute sense.
 281 2011-06-13 02:02:35 <gmaxwell> clojure: yes. Thats correct but it doesn't make it a race. It would be if there would only be one winner.
 282 2011-06-13 02:02:48 <clojure> so, by what you are saying if you run any miner, you will get some fraction of a copy once you solve that block, even if that block has already been mined by other nodes.
 283 2011-06-13 02:03:03 <forrestv> peter345978, i'm actively running a gpu on testnet
 284 2011-06-13 02:03:18 <gmaxwell> clojure: the correct mental model is you and me standing around throwing dice. Everyone time we roll a 1 we get paid $1. If you roll 2x as fast you'll make more than me, but I'd still make the money all the same.
 285 2011-06-13 02:03:32 <peter345978> forrestv: I see. Makes sense, and useful to the community.
 286 2011-06-13 02:03:35 <clojure> gmaxwell, Thanks. I have to read/research more. I have some money to invest and I am debating if buying hardware is better than mining ( I am tecnical ).
 287 2011-06-13 02:03:56 <gmaxwell> clojure: No you'll get some other block, not a fraction of a prior block.
 288 2011-06-13 02:04:37 <mIKEjONES> if I wanted to start my own pool what should I use?
 289 2011-06-13 02:04:38 <clojure> ( I am out to read the bitcoin paper ) I need to really understand this. Because I can buy a few coins, or I can mine them.
 290 2011-06-13 02:04:41 <mIKEjONES> if I wanted to start my own pool what should I use as a server?

 392 2011-06-13 02:40:50 <lorph> i am trying to make my own, but I don't understand how pushpool verifies hashes
 393 2011-06-13 02:41:20 <luke-jr> wistiu: mIKEjONES: specifically, the 50% problem
 394 2011-06-13 02:41:29 <mIKEjONES> luke-jr: oh so those are just fake blocks the server wants me to find?
 395 2011-06-13 02:41:51 <luke-jr> mIKEjONES: they're real hashes of a potential block, but at a lower difficulty than the real network

 399 2011-06-13 02:42:19 <luke-jr> it might ALSO earn the real block for the pool, if it matches the higher difficulty too
 400 2011-06-13 02:42:45 <forrestv> thanks
 401 2011-06-13 02:43:14 <lorph> what's the algorithm for verifying a hash?
 402 2011-06-13 02:43:24 <lorph> the wiki says its just sha256(sha256(data))

 436 2011-06-13 03:02:22 <upb> it also reports the ones that have less
 437 2011-06-13 03:05:27 <luke-jr> [23:01:52] <Joric> mtrlt, well, there is a fragment shader sha256 in glsl http://pastebin.com/fECgZQpc

 455 2011-06-13 03:17:08 <genewitch> where's the documentation for blkmond? where's the stuff i can put in server.json for pushpoold?

 458 2011-06-13 03:17:41 <jgarzik> genewitch: no docs.  all it does is watch the network and send a Unix signal to a process
 459 2011-06-13 03:17:50 <denisx> for me blkmond does not work with testnet

 463 2011-06-13 03:18:13 <genewitch> So it's bitcoind that it is watching?
 464 2011-06-13 03:18:17 <genewitch> the traffic there?
 465 2011-06-13 03:18:31 <jgarzik> genewitch: blkmond is a P2P network node.  bitcoind is a P2P network node.
 466 2011-06-13 03:18:47 <italiano40> if i wanted to add a way to have people to donate using bitcoins from inside my site, where would the api before that?
 467 2011-06-13 03:19:00 <genewitch> what i am wondering is if whatever is updating networkBlocks table is subtracting 1
 468 2011-06-13 03:19:36 <genewitch> before it puts the value in blockNumber
 469 2011-06-13 03:19:58 <genewitch> because it's always consistently one block behind, not sometimes 2 or three or exactly the right block

 476 2011-06-13 03:21:45 <denisx> genewitch: is your bitcoind maybe also behind=?
 477 2011-06-13 03:22:08 <genewitch> denisx: well if blkmond is on the network too, shouldn't it be able to force to the next block?
 478 2011-06-13 03:22:13 <genewitch> it thought that was the whole point
 479 2011-06-13 03:22:40 <genewitch> denisx: why would bitcoind lag behind? some setting?
 480 2011-06-13 03:22:40 <denisx> genewitch: it is NOT on the network, you connect it to a bitcoind
 481 2011-06-13 03:22:53 <genewitch> denisx: jgarzik just said it was a p2p node
 482 2011-06-13 03:22:59 * genewitch shrugs
 483 2011-06-13 03:23:06 <jgarzik> there is no "force to next block"  blkmond receives the block as it's distributed on the network.  there is always some small propagation delay.
 484 2011-06-13 03:23:09 <italiano40> genewitch: are you going to link me to the site of the apis?
 485 2011-06-13 03:23:24 <jgarzik> denisx: blkmond is of course on the network
 486 2011-06-13 03:23:27 <genewitch> italiano40: i don't have a site, i don't mess with the apis
 487 2011-06-13 03:23:40 <denisx> jgarzik: it is not only connect to one bitcoind?

 597 2011-06-13 03:56:26 <denisx> when the pools do their payouts I assume they do it with a zero fee, is that correct?
 598 2011-06-13 03:56:47 <genewitch> denisx: 0.01 per transaction are what my pools say /shrug
 599 2011-06-13 03:57:10 <denisx> genewitch: and you subtract that from the payout?
 600 2011-06-13 03:57:35 <genewitch> from the payee, since it's on the payout pages

 635 2011-06-13 04:11:29 <cut> if i'm running a private pool with a couple of friends, i could start counting the number of completed shares until the next block and then base payment on # of shares completed?
 636 2011-06-13 04:11:36 <cut> blockexplorer has a section for testnet
 637 2011-06-13 04:12:40 <genewitch> cut: you could get a frontend
 638 2011-06-13 04:13:05 <genewitch> but if you save shares.log you could wc -l and grep per user and divide.
 639 2011-06-13 04:13:18 <cut> i'm writing a frontend
 640 2011-06-13 04:13:38 <cut> i dont care how its done, i'm wondering if the math is correct
 641 2011-06-13 04:13:45 <genewitch> hold on
 642 2011-06-13 04:13:56 <genewitch> (50 BTC - 1 BTC fee) * (shares found by user's workers) / (total shares in current round)
 643 2011-06-13 04:14:11 <genewitch> that's a 2% rake, adjust the fee as you see fit
 644 2011-06-13 04:14:19 <cut> ahh total shares is the missing number
 645 2011-06-13 04:14:40 <genewitch> cut: total shars is the number of shares in shares

 652 2011-06-13 04:15:47 <genewitch> make sense?
 653 2011-06-13 04:15:50 <cut> i know how a database primary key works
 654 2011-06-13 04:16:05 <genewitch> well shares gets deleted when a new block comes in
 655 2011-06-13 04:16:11 <genewitch> not sure if that's my frontend or pushpulld
 656 2011-06-13 04:16:32 <genewitch> rather, it can have 0 rows, and then the first row will be 5020 for me if it's a new block

 669 2011-06-13 04:21:52 <genewitch> jgarzik: by the way, i dunno if you read the support forums but i wanted to thank you for making pushpoold (and the other git commiters) - it's totally awesome.
 670 2011-06-13 04:22:29 <lorph> jgarzik: what does h-not-zero mean

 673 2011-06-13 04:23:35 <jgarzik> lorph: H != 0.  for further elaboration, read the wiki on mining.
 674 2011-06-13 04:24:11 <genewitch> cut: you said how to divvy shares. I said the calculation. you asked globally or just your pool, i answered that wrong, sorry, i just looked up, i meant your network only when i said network only, not globally.

 696 2011-06-13 04:31:49 <forrestv> lorph, there are more pools than pushpool
 697 2011-06-13 04:31:49 <jgarzik> forrestv: even at diff-1, H must be zero
 698 2011-06-13 04:32:08 <lorph> i thought pushpool was the standard
 699 2011-06-13 04:32:24 <davep> you could have sub-1 difficulty
 700 2011-06-13 04:32:37 * jgarzik rolls eyes

 706 2011-06-13 04:33:24 <ArtForzZz> yup, H==0 is about diff 0.9999975 or so ;)
 707 2011-06-13 04:33:32 <jgarzik> all miners check H==0
 708 2011-06-13 04:33:51 <lorph> jgarzik: is the target in big endian format, and the hash here is in little endian
 709 2011-06-13 04:33:59 <ArtForzZz> I think diablo can handle nonzero H target
 710 2011-06-13 04:34:14 <lorph> i guess you are clamping for difficulty >= 1
 711 2011-06-13 04:34:43 <ArtForzZz> useful for testnet-in-a-box mining ;)
 712 2011-06-13 04:34:47 <lorph> can I get a yes or no, because I don't see H anywhere else on the wiki

 765 2011-06-13 05:01:37 <Joric> is it possible to show progress e.g. 101234 of 130434 blocks on init?
 766 2011-06-13 05:02:45 <Joric> also what happens if you send to an address that no one actually has yet? will you get it back?
 767 2011-06-13 05:02:55 <mtrlt> nope
 768 2011-06-13 05:02:59 <mtrlt> it is sent to that address

 770 2011-06-13 05:03:06 <RAM2012> is it possible to map every node and transaction in realtime and start linking IP to physical location?
 771 2011-06-13 05:03:10 <mtrlt> if nobody has the private key for that address, then nobody can use that money

 774 2011-06-13 05:04:40 <Swu> Channel forums?
 775 2011-06-13 05:05:24 <noagendamarket> nuke it from space
 776 2011-06-13 05:05:25 <Diablo-D3> no, a forum channel
 777 2011-06-13 05:05:39 <Diablo-D3> -dev scrolls too fast to have a useful discussion of the forums
 778 2011-06-13 05:06:05 <Swu> ah
 779 2011-06-13 05:07:34 <Swu> yea if that's the case, probably should name it forum-meta or something

 786 2011-06-13 05:09:11 <Swu> Also i don't know if you should or not, but start moving posts into mining into the subcategories since people dont really seem to be adopting them cus they find general mining more accessible
 787 2011-06-13 05:09:42 <genewitch> get rid of the general one?
 788 2011-06-13 05:09:52 <Swu> no you can keep the general one

 889 2011-06-13 05:53:37 <Xenland> Yeah it should work fine if they both use the same database structure, I'm not quite sure how "the same" they both are, scince simplecoin software was built upon version 1 of my software

 908 2011-06-13 05:56:34 <genewitch> Xenland: you need another program

 912 2011-06-13 05:57:25 <genewitch> Diablo-D3: does overdrivectl handle overclocking and overvoltage? mine does overclock and underclock but the voltage is locked
 913 2011-06-13 05:57:44 <genewitch> also i'd love to set 35% as the fixed speed :-/
 914 2011-06-13 05:57:45 <Diablo-D3> genewitch: you cant change voltage on non-ref cards anyhow
 915 2011-06-13 05:57:55 <genewitch> i can pick from 4 voltages
 916 2011-06-13 05:58:03 <Diablo-D3> and on ref cards, you can only set from whats in the bios already
 917 2011-06-13 05:58:04 <genewitch> but that's it
 918 2011-06-13 05:58:07 <genewitch> oh
 919 2011-06-13 05:58:19 <Swu> unless you flash the bios
 920 2011-06-13 05:58:29 <genewitch> boff that, i'll just buy more
 921 2011-06-13 05:58:42 <genewitch> got 2 offers for gpus for BTC already.
 922 2011-06-13 05:58:46 <Xenland> why are there low, mid and high, tabs?
 923 2011-06-13 05:59:11 <Diablo-D3> Xenland: because thats how the cards are built.
 924 2011-06-13 05:59:18 <Diablo-D3> you can change speeds for all three modes
 925 2011-06-13 06:00:05 <Xenland> wtf? this is too advanced, so your saying when i do windows overdrive mode and i just got the 1 slider for clock speed, i now have to play with 3? or its just different modes I can activate

 928 2011-06-13 06:01:11 <genewitch> Xenland: ati cards have "idle" "video" and "game/GPGPU" speeds, i think is what those are
 929 2011-06-13 06:01:21 <genewitch> they underclock to save power, in other words
 930 2011-06-13 06:01:34 <Xenland> how do I know what mode its in?
 931 2011-06-13 06:01:40 <genewitch> if your'e mining it's in high
 932 2011-06-13 06:01:49 <genewitch> ;-)
 933 2011-06-13 06:01:56 <Xenland> okay, so its like an auto mode type of thing, that makes sense
 934 2011-06-13 06:02:17 <Xenland> I was like freaking out here for a second, thinking this overclocking thing is going to take forever!!! lol
 935 2011-06-13 06:02:19 <genewitch> you can get current mode, usually. if you look at the catalyst panel it will tell you too, if it doesn't freak out on your first
 936 2011-06-13 06:02:26 <genewitch> Xenland: what card?
 937 2011-06-13 06:02:34 * genewitch hopes 5850
 938 2011-06-13 06:03:00 <Xenland> 6990, Im not really over clocking, it just runs really hot(90c) and i need to balance it out with high fan speeds
 939 2011-06-13 06:03:12 <Xenland> I think i got the last one from Cutting Edge Gamers thank god
 940 2011-06-13 06:03:13 <genewitch> Xenland: on the high tab underclock your ram
 941 2011-06-13 06:03:43 <Xenland> cann i underclook my ram to the lowest posible with out any ppoblems?
 942 2011-06-13 06:04:03 <genewitch> no no no nevermind no one is doing that with the 6990
 943 2011-06-13 06:04:12 <genewitch> I don't recommend testing the values.
 944 2011-06-13 06:04:37 <Xenland> genewitch: so underclocking is just as bad as too much overclocking huh?

 951 2011-06-13 06:06:04 <genewitch> you can TRY setting the first core to 990, the second core to 960, and then clock the ram down to 300mhz

 955 2011-06-13 06:08:44 <genewitch> 830?
 956 2011-06-13 06:09:01 <mtrlt> yep
 957 2011-06-13 06:09:09 <mtrlt> there's a switch that puts it to 880 too
 958 2011-06-13 06:09:13 <Diablo-D3> ooh
 959 2011-06-13 06:09:15 <Diablo-D3> I can mass move
 960 2011-06-13 06:09:17 <Diablo-D3> interesting
 961 2011-06-13 06:09:53 <genewitch> mtrlt: damn that's a 10% speed increase on hashing
 962 2011-06-13 06:10:04 <genewitch> without software overclocking
 963 2011-06-13 06:10:25 <mtrlt> genewitch: but i left the switch in the 830 position and overclocked to 910
 964 2011-06-13 06:10:32 <mtrlt> since the switch also raises volts
 965 2011-06-13 06:10:53 <genewitch> mtrlt: you need that for stability at higher clocks, so if you're stable no need, cool.
 966 2011-06-13 06:10:58 <Xenland> why is it that poclbm isn't showing up the 2nd core after running the 1st one?
 967 2011-06-13 06:10:59 <mtrlt> yep
 968 2011-06-13 06:11:25 <genewitch> my card stock is 725mhz and i can get it to 885 stable for a bit, wish i could overvolt it a smidge
 969 2011-06-13 06:11:55 <genewitch> it runs stable for days at 850 though

 978 2011-06-13 06:14:27 <genewitch> other than slow me down 16.5%
 979 2011-06-13 06:14:30 <mtrlt> it is an optimization

 983 2011-06-13 06:15:13 <genewitch> mtrlt: out of curiosity, what mh/s do you get on your 5850 at those speeds? if they're better than mine i want to steal your extra flags

1012 2011-06-13 06:19:48 <B0g4r7> worksize 64 works best for me.
1013 2011-06-13 06:19:50 <genewitch> the lower my aggression, the more mh/s but the less shares i get.

1178 2011-06-13 08:11:34 <roconnor> does a block have to have exactly the correct difficulty target to be acceptable, or can it have a harder target?
1179 2011-06-13 08:12:24 <[Tycho]> Yes.
1180 2011-06-13 08:12:29 <mtrlt> the hash has to be below the target
1181 2011-06-13 08:12:36 <mtrlt> not exactly the target.
1182 2011-06-13 08:12:38 <[Tycho]> It can be "more difficult".
1183 2011-06-13 08:13:00 <jgarzik> roconnor: proof of work check is:  hash < target
1184 2011-06-13 08:13:02 <ArtForzZz> wrong
1185 2011-06-13 08:13:04 <roconnor> I mean here specifically the target field (Bits) rather than the hash achieved.
1186 2011-06-13 08:13:13 <[Tycho]> I remember someone finding a block for 800k difficulty some months ago :)
1187 2011-06-13 08:13:15 <ArtForzZz> read the fine source
1188 2011-06-13 08:13:22 <ArtForzZz> it's hash <= target
1189 2011-06-13 08:13:22 <roconnor> the source is not fine
1190 2011-06-13 08:13:49 <mtrlt> roconnor: yes the field has to be correct of course
1191 2011-06-13 08:13:50 <roconnor> anyhow, I'm not refering to the hash <= target check
1192 2011-06-13 08:13:59 <mtrlt> at least i'd sasume so..
1193 2011-06-13 08:13:59 <mtrlt> assume
1194 2011-06-13 08:14:06 <roconnor> I mean that the target field itself
1195 2011-06-13 08:14:15 <mtrlt> yes
1196 2011-06-13 08:14:22 <roconnor> I mean, it could be harder than necessary in principle
1197 2011-06-13 08:14:27 <ArtForzZz> no
1198 2011-06-13 08:14:42 <ArtForzZz> it has to exactly match the calculated nBits
1199 2011-06-13 08:14:46 <roconnor> thanks

1203 2011-06-13 08:16:47 <topi`> would it be possible to need less storage space by taking a "snapshot" of the current block tree, calculating all balances from it, and then storing that metadata and making decisions based on that. i'm thinking of light mobile bitcoin clients.
1204 2011-06-13 08:17:02 <topi`> the goal being enabling mobile payment from a small mobile dvevice
1205 2011-06-13 08:17:25 <topi`> (i.e. not smartphone but a more storage-impaired device)
1206 2011-06-13 08:17:39 <gmaxwell> topi`: not balances, but a summary of open transactions. Though because things change I don't know that this helps you much.. since you'd need the future blocks to check if any of the open txn were later used.
1207 2011-06-13 08:18:00 <roconnor> topi`: that's vaguely how my client is currently operating
1208 2011-06-13 08:18:04 <topi`> the future blocks would get downloaded from the 'net in real time
1209 2011-06-13 08:18:41 <topi`> roconnor: wat's the "business case" of your client?
1210 2011-06-13 08:18:43 <gmaxwell> roconnor: you could certantly be more efficient than the current client. Eg. pregenerating a perfect hash for txn resolution.
1211 2011-06-13 08:18:49 <roconnor> topi`: personal enjoyment
1212 2011-06-13 08:19:02 <topi`> ok :)

1218 2011-06-13 08:20:22 <topi`> it boils down to the ability of trusting the 3rd party :)
1219 2011-06-13 08:20:59 <roconnor> gmaxwell: ya, I'm not trying to build a thin client for a smart phone.
1220 2011-06-13 08:21:12 <roconnor> gmaxwell: that seems like a good idea for topi I guess
1221 2011-06-13 08:21:55 <gmaxwell> topi`: Okay. Though you could make it so its N parties you consult (one of whom is yourself perhaps) and all N must lie to screw you.

1224 2011-06-13 08:23:18 <roconnor> if a smartphone has net connectivity, it seems easier, like gmaxwell suggests, to simply have it query your home server to validate transactions.
1225 2011-06-13 08:23:48 <gmaxwell> The connectivity can also be useful for the purpose of better wallet sync.
1226 2011-06-13 08:24:01 <Joric> how many addresses may have a wallet? 2^32?
1227 2011-06-13 08:24:19 cacheson has quit (Ping timeout: 240 seconds)
1228 2011-06-13 08:24:47 <gmaxwell> Joric: er, I don't think there is an intentional limit though you'll probably hit software bugs or performance issues before 2^32.
1229 2011-06-13 08:25:10 <topi`> maybe a good alternative would be to write small software for server side for  keping and validating a block chain for those small clients
1230 2011-06-13 08:25:23 <gmaxwell> jrmithdobbs has tested rather large numbers of addresses.
1231 2011-06-13 08:26:00 <topi`> 2^32 addresses would consume an inordinate amount of memory

1233 2011-06-13 08:26:19 <Joric> does client stop generating new addresses at 100?
1234 2011-06-13 08:26:26 <gmaxwell> topi`: go one step further and make it into a generic proxy for bitcoin, and people doing high importance things can use it as a secure gateway to guard their node.
1235 2011-06-13 08:26:47 <gmaxwell> Joric: 100 is the pool size— the amount it generates ahead of what you've used.
1236 2011-06-13 08:27:02 <topi`> joric, no, but the wallet is preseeded with 100 addresses
1237 2011-06-13 08:27:09 <topi`> oh, maybe gmaxwell is right.
1238 2011-06-13 08:27:20 <gmaxwell> topi`: it refills too.
1239 2011-06-13 08:27:30 <topi`> ok
1240 2011-06-13 08:27:43 <gmaxwell> otherwise you'd get burned on backups as soon as you've burned through the first 100.
1241 2011-06-13 08:27:43 <topi`> that's why even a slightly old backup of wallet would work.

1244 2011-06-13 08:29:04 <topi`> gmaxwell: the gateway could allow for checking any data fields from a given block in the chain
1245 2011-06-13 08:29:17 <topi`> but then there would be bandwidth problems

1250 2011-06-13 08:35:59 <linagee> I've been doing tiny donations to people in #bitcoin. it's been working right until about an hour ago
1251 2011-06-13 08:36:25 <linagee> I have transactions that are showing 0/unconfirmed that are 1.5 hours old
1252 2011-06-13 08:36:44 <topi`> that has happened to me, too
1253 2011-06-13 08:36:53 <linagee> topi`: just recently?
1254 2011-06-13 08:37:05 <topi`> but it sometimes happens, when nobody includes your tx in their blocks
1255 2011-06-13 08:37:17 <topi`> if, for example, the amount is very small and you pay no tx fee
1256 2011-06-13 08:37:19 <linagee> topi`: but I am paying 0.0005 BTC. hrm
1257 2011-06-13 08:37:34 <linagee> topi`: are older wallets rounding that to zero?
1258 2011-06-13 08:37:49 <topi`> you should wait that a miner / pool picks it up who does not require tx fees
1259 2011-06-13 08:38:12 <pirrr> Hello, I upgraded to 0.33.22-beta from the ubuntu PPA and I am now getting ~5 connections instead of hundreds on the previous version...
1260 2011-06-13 08:38:14 <linagee> topi`: so not much I can do except wait longer?
1261 2011-06-13 08:38:17 <topi`> no, older wallets record all the decimals, but they might display it as 0.00
1262 2011-06-13 08:38:36 <topi`> linagee: exactly

1275 2011-06-13 08:40:51 <topi`> yep, I have 0.3.20 and it shows 0.001 as 0.00
1276 2011-06-13 08:41:04 <gmaxwell> hah yea. .20 truncates things to cents.

1346 2011-06-13 09:02:08 <Joric> didn't read the source, does it check for a running instance?
1347 2011-06-13 09:02:59 <Joric> // Limit to single instance per user

1354 2011-06-13 09:07:12 <Joric> looks like it checks for instances only on wxmsw
1355 2011-06-13 09:08:35 <anddam> Wuked: did you try to perform transaction only on a client? did you get the same wallet.dat at the end?
1356 2011-06-13 09:09:38 <Wuked> I haven't checked exactly
1357 2011-06-13 09:09:43 <Wuked> but after doing a tranaction
1358 2011-06-13 09:09:48 <Wuked> both clients show the same info
1359 2011-06-13 09:10:00 <Wuked> haven't checked the exact checksum of the wallet file

1367 2011-06-13 09:13:14 <eamon> is Poclbm-mod still better than poclbm?
1368 2011-06-13 09:13:17 <Joric> jgarzik, what if i use the same data directory (--datadir) for both versions?
1369 2011-06-13 09:13:17 <jgarzik> anddam: yes, bitcoind can act as a JSON-RPC client

1373 2011-06-13 09:14:57 <eamon> jgarzik: when compiling pushpool, I have jasson installed in /home/eamon/apps/ , How do I tell pushpool's ./configure to look there? This has been bugging me since yesterday
1374 2011-06-13 09:14:57 <Joric> jgarzik, shouldn't you check for the same directory rather than for the same user?
1375 2011-06-13 09:15:30 <jgarzik> eamon: the same way you pass flags to all configure scripts:  CFLAGS, LDFLAGS, LIBS, ...
1376 2011-06-13 09:16:00 <eamon> which flag is jasson?
1377 2011-06-13 09:16:10 <eamon> trial and error?

1387 2011-06-13 09:17:41 <gjs278> with make install
1388 2011-06-13 09:17:49 <eamon> I did that
1389 2011-06-13 09:18:18 <gjs278> but did you install it to /usr/lib or /usr/local/lib
1390 2011-06-13 09:18:19 <gjs278> or that dir
1391 2011-06-13 09:18:23 <eamon> but when I configured it I used --prefix=/home/eamon/apps because I don't have admin privs
1392 2011-06-13 09:18:28 <gjs278> oh
1393 2011-06-13 09:19:01 <eamon> bu thten when I do the same with pushpool it wont compile
1394 2011-06-13 09:19:14 <eamon> I know about CFLAGS
1395 2011-06-13 09:19:18 <gjs278> well
1396 2011-06-13 09:19:26 <eamon> but I have no idea how to use them
1397 2011-06-13 09:19:33 <gjs278> -I/home/eamon/apps
1398 2011-06-13 09:19:36 <gjs278> you have to add that

1402 2011-06-13 09:19:51 <gjs278> is there a MakeFile
1403 2011-06-13 09:19:55 <gjs278> pastebin it if so
1404 2011-06-13 09:19:58 <eamon> elmme check

1407 2011-06-13 09:20:23 <jgarzik> gjs278: pushpool is autotools.  the makefile is stupidly large.  you pass flags to the configure script, not makefile, as stated above.

1415 2011-06-13 09:21:23 <eamon> gjs278: there's makefile.am and makefile.in
1416 2011-06-13 09:21:24 <gjs278> I figured it was the bitcoin setup with makefile.unix
1417 2011-06-13 09:21:54 <eamon> ok, so I need o pass flags to the configure script
1418 2011-06-13 09:21:59 <jgarzik> gjs278: he is compiling pushpool, not bitcoin

1429 2011-06-13 09:23:12 <sneak_> also, don't call it "apps"
1430 2011-06-13 09:23:15 <sneak_> call it "local"
1431 2011-06-13 09:23:16 <sneak_> that's the convention
1432 2011-06-13 09:23:28 <sneak_> or call it $HOME/tmp/builddeps or something
1433 2011-06-13 09:23:31 <ersi> But Apps is Computing 2.0!
1434 2011-06-13 09:23:37 <gjs278> call it opt

1436 2011-06-13 09:23:42 <sneak_> opt means something else
1437 2011-06-13 09:23:57 <nathan7> As a matter of fact, I can't legally.
1438 2011-06-13 09:24:00 <gjs278> opt means dump this here because your package manager didnt have it
1439 2011-06-13 09:24:13 <gjs278> and it selfcontains
1440 2011-06-13 09:24:28 <nathan7> But I don't enjoy it and I'm quite sensitive to it because I don't have some enormous tolerance.
1441 2011-06-13 09:24:35 <sneak_> lol
1442 2011-06-13 09:24:41 <sneak_> nathan7: it helps if you have fat girls around
1443 2011-06-13 09:24:49 <sneak_> that's what's always made drinking fun for me
1444 2011-06-13 09:24:55 <xelister> nathan7: well ok then
1445 2011-06-13 09:25:15 <nathan7> sneak_: Why would that make it any more fun?
1446 2011-06-13 09:25:29 <sneak_> because you drink and make fun of them for being fat, and that's like stage one fun
1447 2011-06-13 09:25:38 <sneak_> then you're drunk and you can fuck them without caring so much
1448 2011-06-13 09:25:41 <sneak_> that's stage two fun
1449 2011-06-13 09:25:45 <sneak_> it's win/win

1470 2011-06-13 09:29:02 <eamon> can you string them up like that?

1475 2011-06-13 09:29:45 <nathan7> Nope.
1476 2011-06-13 09:29:51 <sneak> you want $HOME

1500 2011-06-13 09:39:35 <gjs278> does it just hang there
1501 2011-06-13 09:39:42 <gjs278> if so do bitcoind -daemon -server
1502 2011-06-13 09:40:15 <gjs278> do bitcoind stop in another shell to stop it for now and try the -daemon and -server one

1505 2011-06-13 09:41:54 <drdig> thank you very much @gjs278!!!
1506 2011-06-13 09:42:14 <drdig> AWESOME! that worked out!

1508 2011-06-13 09:42:44 <gjs278> you can do bitcoind help to see the rest of the commands for getting details like your balance and whatever else

1515 2011-06-13 09:49:29 <gjs278> you'd think so
1516 2011-06-13 09:49:37 <gjs278> he might have only needed -daemon
1517 2011-06-13 09:49:41 <gjs278> but I forget which
1518 2011-06-13 09:50:07 <anddam> gjs278: I think so because 'bitcoind -?' shows no -server option
1519 2011-06-13 09:50:11 <gjs278> bitcoind used to also imply -daemon but not you have to specify it
1520 2011-06-13 09:50:18 <gjs278> now*
1521 2011-06-13 09:50:23 <gjs278> yeah -server is probably useless
1522 2011-06-13 09:50:31 <anddam> -daemon is the usual "go fork yourself in background"
1523 2011-06-13 09:50:42 <gjs278> -daemon used to be default
1524 2011-06-13 09:50:52 <gjs278> and then the if blocks for it got changed

1536 2011-06-13 09:54:59 <Bwild> usually implies a background process

1543 2011-06-13 09:55:27 <eamon> http://dpaste.de/Qpsm/
1544 2011-06-13 09:55:38 <anddam> wumpus: I know, I was pointing out what it suggested
1545 2011-06-13 09:55:48 <gjs278> it just seems weird that -daemon isn't on by default. I can only imagine more people are going to try just bitcoind without -daemon and see it hang than people who really want no daemon by default
1546 2011-06-13 09:56:13 <wumpus> so do you have to provide daemon?
1547 2011-06-13 09:56:22 <gjs278> yes

1549 2011-06-13 09:56:31 <wumpus> huh if you don't it won't fork to the background?
1550 2011-06-13 09:56:56 <wumpus> I can't remember ever specifying it
1551 2011-06-13 09:56:58 <gjs278> I can't see any reason you wouldn't want it to fork but -nodaemon would be better for that
1552 2011-06-13 09:57:01 <anddam> eamon: how's linux involved there?
1553 2011-06-13 09:57:31 <eamon> Im compiling on linux
1554 2011-06-13 09:57:40 <gjs278> wumpus what's your version
1555 2011-06-13 09:57:44 <eamon> so I need people who know linux commands
1556 2011-06-13 09:57:52 <wumpus> latest git

1559 2011-06-13 09:58:02 <anddam> eamon: you shouldn't call everything "linux" you're getting yourself confused
1560 2011-06-13 09:58:24 <anddam> eamon: add /home/ranunculoid/apps/bin to your PATH env variable
1561 2011-06-13 09:58:25 <gjs278> when I upped from like .20 or .21 beta I had to start doing -daemon
1562 2011-06-13 09:58:36 <eamon> thx anddam
1563 2011-06-13 09:58:49 <anddam> eamon: or just install memcached in your system
1564 2011-06-13 09:58:50 <gjs278> eamon
1565 2011-06-13 09:58:52 <gjs278> CFLAGS="-I${DD}/include -L${DD}/lib" LIBS="-L${DD}/lib" ./configure --prefix="$DD"
1566 2011-06-13 09:59:01 <anddam> eamon: what system is it? (don't say 'linux')
1567 2011-06-13 09:59:01 <gjs278> just put DD in that same line
1568 2011-06-13 09:59:09 <wumpus> looks like you're right
1569 2011-06-13 09:59:10 <eamon> Debian

1573 2011-06-13 09:59:34 <gjs278> wumpus I believe it's unintentional but happened due to the way the DAEMON block was capture
1574 2011-06-13 09:59:43 <gjs278> it was using a different check before
1575 2011-06-13 09:59:59 <gjs278> one that always made bitcoind -daemon itself
1576 2011-06-13 10:00:01 <wumpus> ok a pull request would be welcome, I don't think this is intended behaviour
1577 2011-06-13 10:00:03 <gjs278> or something
1578 2011-06-13 10:00:32 <gjs278> I've been talking about it for like three weeks now lol
1579 2011-06-13 10:00:45 <gjs278> it absolutely killed me trying to setup monit

1583 2011-06-13 10:01:25 <jav_> This this comes up so often, I have extended the FAQ entry on what exactly is computed during the mining process (see https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/FAQ#Is_mining_used_for_some_useful_computation.3F) .. any objections/corrections? ... also: is there a good toy miner out there, which could be linked there, for those inclined to read some source code?
1584 2011-06-13 10:01:43 <eamon> anddam: thanks
1585 2011-06-13 10:03:13 <tcatm> jav_: great! I just don't like the "that starts with a certain number of zeros." part. can you improve that to "hash <= target"
1586 2011-06-13 10:04:01 <sipa> the 'some number of zeroes' explanation is easier for people who fail to see the sha256 output as a number
1587 2011-06-13 10:04:14 <sipa> but it's a common misunderstanding as well
1588 2011-06-13 10:04:46 <tcatm> + something like "when interpreted as a 256 bit number"  :)
1589 2011-06-13 10:04:51 <pusle> jav_:  perhaps explain the "outpace an attacker" a little more. ( blocks protecting each other etc)
1590 2011-06-13 10:04:55 <nathan7> SHA256 is usually represented as hex
1591 2011-06-13 10:05:03 <nathan7> But that doesn't make it any less of a number.
1592 2011-06-13 10:05:24 <jav_> pusle: I won't go into that.. I merely want to have a good answer to: "are we cracking hashes for the CIA?"
1593 2011-06-13 10:05:26 <sipa> nathan7: of course, most people here know that
1594 2011-06-13 10:05:36 <pusle> okay :)

1597 2011-06-13 10:06:18 <tcatm> anddam: I have a cli branch for bitcoind
1598 2011-06-13 10:07:18 <tcatm> https://github.com/tcatm/bitcoin/tree/cli you have to input the pre-formatted JSON for now
1599 2011-06-13 10:07:22 <wumpus> jav_: not for the CIA :p
1600 2011-06-13 10:07:35 <anddam> tcatm: are you offering elf32 binaries?
1601 2011-06-13 10:07:43 <tcatm> nope
1602 2011-06-13 10:07:46 <TD> jav_: it looks ok. my only concern would be the FAQ becoming too technical
1603 2011-06-13 10:08:08 <wumpus> jav_: but seriously, no, the miners can not be used for generic brute forcing of keys as-is
1604 2011-06-13 10:08:27 <nathan7> sipa: Mhm
1605 2011-06-13 10:09:08 <nathan7> I think people should be taught about hexadecimal and binary in school.
1606 2011-06-13 10:09:10 <jav_> wumpus: I know.. I just wrote a FAQ entry about it ;-P
1607 2011-06-13 10:09:18 <wumpus> jav_: ok :)
1608 2011-06-13 10:09:42 <wumpus> jav_: would be funny though, just start a mining pool as front to a password cracking service 
1609 2011-06-13 10:10:34 <eamon> I got jgarzik-pushpool-d917fe3 to configure, but when I go to make I get server.c:106:2: error: #error ("No valid database engines defined"). I have msql installed.... what do?
1610 2011-06-13 10:10:47 <eamon> *MySQL
1611 2011-06-13 10:11:44 <wumpus> interesting idea though.. 'help bruteforcing keys, get paid out in btc for every found password' .. suppose it'd pay more than mining :p
1612 2011-06-13 10:11:58 <nathan7> ..fun
1613 2011-06-13 10:12:37 <nathan7> If that'd be extended to WEP cracking... :D
1614 2011-06-13 10:12:46 <wumpus> of course
1615 2011-06-13 10:12:47 <TD> nathan7: they are, at least in the uk

1630 2011-06-13 10:16:11 <nathan7> I have a GPRS connection and the IV data is only a few kB at most.
1631 2011-06-13 10:16:49 <nathan7> It'd take ages to crack that with my netbook, so sending it over GPRS to a more powerful computer would work very well.

1742 2011-06-13 10:47:48 <drdig> bitcoin watch says current hashrate is ~80,000.00 Teraflop/s , is it true that this is about 40x the power ofthe best supercomputer?

1768 2011-06-13 10:53:01 <gmaxwell> mtrlt: took some random card's float numbers and scaled it against it's mining and then applied that to the total.

1770 2011-06-13 10:53:30 <eamon> anddam: do I need to have bitcoin installed before this will work? I'm trying to set up a pool.
1771 2011-06-13 10:53:33 <gmaxwell> kinda daft though, it's not like linpak scales well on pcie-1x plus very narrow internet pipes :)
1772 2011-06-13 10:53:42 <mtrlt> :P
1773 2011-06-13 10:53:58 <eamon> anddam: because I don't have sudo access
1774 2011-06-13 10:54:06 <anddam> eamon: idk about mining
1775 2011-06-13 10:54:20 <eamon> anddam: And are there even provided binaries for pushpool? I did not know that
1776 2011-06-13 10:54:23 <anddam> eamon: you're going to setup a mining pool on a machine you don't have sudo access
1777 2011-06-13 10:54:42 <anddam> eamon: so you probably don't have physical access to it, is CPU mining worth it?
1778 2011-06-13 10:55:03 <eamon> it wont be mining, it will be a pool server
1779 2011-06-13 10:55:05 <ersi> He's not going to Mine on it. He's going to be running the pool
1780 2011-06-13 10:55:49 <eamon> jgarzik: We're stumped. Any ideas? http://dpaste.de/0yVZ/
1781 2011-06-13 10:55:58 <gmaxwell> eamon: I would suggest that if you're asking "do I need to have bitcoin installed" (yes) than you're going to need to learn a bit more before setting up a pool.
1782 2011-06-13 10:56:23 <eamon> do I need to install it before the pool software is what i'm asking
1783 2011-06-13 10:56:25 <gmaxwell> oh but not having bitcoin is not why you're having compile issues.
1784 2011-06-13 10:56:36 <eamon> i.e. does the order of installation matter
1785 2011-06-13 10:56:49 <eamon> that's what I was wondering
1786 2011-06-13 10:57:03 <gmaxwell> Not having htole32 means something is busted on your machine.
1787 2011-06-13 10:57:33 <anddam> eamon: my guess is that bitcoind is enough for a pool
1788 2011-06-13 10:57:38 <gmaxwell> Is that not a linux system?
1789 2011-06-13 10:57:49 <eamon> yes, it's debian 6
1790 2011-06-13 10:59:56 <ersi> Heh. You and diki should team up
1791 2011-06-13 11:00:29 <ersi> Then you could run an super duper optimized pool on a 256MB RAM VM on a desktop with shitty internet and strip both of you of your root privileges
1792 2011-06-13 11:01:00 <anddam> eamon: you're lacking packages
1793 2011-06-13 11:01:06 <anddam> kfreebsd-kernel-headers in this case
1794 2011-06-13 11:02:23 <eamon> anddam: thank you, kind sir

1801 2011-06-13 11:06:08 <diki> i already found some stuff to be hard to implement although not remotely close to impossible
1802 2011-06-13 11:06:21 <anddam> how do I set a label from bitcoind?
1803 2011-06-13 11:06:30 pensan has joined
1804 2011-06-13 11:06:49 <anddam> can I at all?
1805 2011-06-13 11:08:00 <diki> just so you know ersi, my pool found me a block once, and i was able to get more ram
1806 2011-06-13 11:08:18 <diki> but i took into account the limitation of a 32-bit OS and just bought 1 gig more
1807 2011-06-13 11:08:35 <anddam> 1 GB is like 10 euro
1808 2011-06-13 11:08:38 <drdig> can i put the -daemon into my config file, so bitcoind will start in daemon mode automatically?
1809 2011-06-13 11:08:41 <diki> sure was

1821 2011-06-13 11:10:07 <diki> yes i am
1822 2011-06-13 11:10:16 <Wuked> are you doing it object orientated ?
1823 2011-06-13 11:10:20 <diki> nah
1824 2011-06-13 11:10:25 <Wuked> if not I can imagine the stats are hard to come by
1825 2011-06-13 11:10:25 <Wuked> ah
1826 2011-06-13 11:10:29 <Wuked> I did mine in ruby on rails
1827 2011-06-13 11:10:36 <Wuked> so the stats are really easy
1828 2011-06-13 11:10:59 <diki> they would be easy if i didn't need to display confirmations and a link to blockexplorer
1829 2011-06-13 11:11:21 <ersi> diki: Holy cow, batman!

1832 2011-06-13 11:12:07 <Wuked> I don't see how that has anything to do with generating stats
1833 2011-06-13 11:12:16 <diki> stats about the generated blocks
1834 2011-06-13 11:12:47 <diki> you see, pushpool stores the share in raw format in the db
1835 2011-06-13 11:13:02 <diki> there is no way to calculate the hashes back to it's sha 256 form
1836 2011-06-13 11:13:10 <diki> s/hashes/shares
1837 2011-06-13 11:13:22 <diki> so i need to call an external program
1838 2011-06-13 11:13:41 <diki> but the outputted hash needs to be byteswapped
1839 2011-06-13 11:14:07 <diki> which if you know how to use the bits operator could potentially be done in php, but i can't so i call another external program

2029 2011-06-13 13:36:02 * roconnor makes a note: the 9th bit in the compact representation of targets must always be 0.
2030 2011-06-13 13:36:53 <wumpus> at least h264 has a very well-defined spec :p

2033 2011-06-13 13:38:12 <wumpus> yes it is extensive, and a lot of work, agreed

2036 2011-06-13 13:38:43 <gmaxwell> It's also the kind of very exact detail oriented work that needs to go into all the blockchain validation, but a _lot_ more of it.
2037 2011-06-13 13:38:45 * roconnor wonders what happens if you try to make blocks where the 9th bit is 1
2038 2011-06-13 13:39:38 <wumpus> though in a video codec there is no big disaster if your output is a little bit different
2039 2011-06-13 13:40:08 <roconnor> heh
2040 2011-06-13 13:40:25 <roconnor> with bitcoin if there is a little difference there is a fork in the chain.
2041 2011-06-13 13:40:48 <wumpus> yep
2042 2011-06-13 13:41:31 <gmaxwell> wumpus: oh, well in highly predictive formats like h264 getting a single bit wrong can propagate and blow up stuff for a long time.

2045 2011-06-13 13:41:44 <gmaxwell> And if you get a bit wrong in any of the entropy decoder stuff.. fireworks. :)
2046 2011-06-13 13:41:57 <roconnor> when checking that a block as the right target, are the targets compared in compact representation or non-compact representation?  Since for some targets there is more than one equivalent compact representation

2050 2011-06-13 13:42:54 <roconnor> nope
2051 2011-06-13 13:43:21 <roconnor> the compact representation is 0xeemmmmmm where ee is the exponent and mmmmmm is the mantissa

2060 2011-06-13 13:46:32 <gmaxwell> Actually it can be much easier, because you don't have to implement the whole spec in an encoder.

2120 2011-06-13 14:20:25 <jrmithdobbs> Joric: you have two options, you can eat the fee and just transfer your entire balance to a new key
2121 2011-06-13 14:20:29 <Joric> great, so what now, i have to get another wallet?
2122 2011-06-13 14:20:38 <jrmithdobbs> Joric: that'll cause minimal fee for that method
2123 2011-06-13 14:21:17 <Diablo-D3> forrestv: I cant.
2124 2011-06-13 14:21:24 <darkskiez> Joric, just try sending smaller amounts to yourself until you find the break point
2125 2011-06-13 14:21:25 <jrmithdobbs> Joric: or you can sit and combine them manually so that you take 2 .1 txns into 1 key then 2 .2 txns into 1 key etc until they're up to reasonable sizes
2126 2011-06-13 14:21:31 <jrmithdobbs> Joric: but that is hard and tedius
2127 2011-06-13 14:21:46 <forrestv> ah :/
2128 2011-06-13 14:22:12 <Joric> linagee just sent me 0.0001 what should i do, kill him now?
2129 2011-06-13 14:22:29 Coin has quit (Quit: Page closed)
2130 2011-06-13 14:22:36 <roconnor> does the client still work by sending the smallest coins possible first?
2131 2011-06-13 14:23:12 <jrmithdobbs> roconnor: i think so
2132 2011-06-13 14:23:14 <roconnor> so we can DOS bitcoin users by sending them lots of small coins as Joric suggests?
2133 2011-06-13 14:23:36 emock has joined
2134 2011-06-13 14:23:44 <Joric> apparently
2135 2011-06-13 14:24:00 <mtrlt> do send me coins :p
2136 2011-06-13 14:24:05 <gmaxwell> please attack me
2137 2011-06-13 14:24:09 <jrmithdobbs> me too
2138 2011-06-13 14:24:13 <jrmithdobbs> heh
2139 2011-06-13 14:24:14 <Joric> picocents?
2140 2011-06-13 14:24:24 <roconnor> if I had some coins I would :)
2141 2011-06-13 14:24:31 <Joric> with 0.3.20 i may do it without a fee
2142 2011-06-13 14:24:48 <gmaxwell> roconnor: the 'attack' is that if someone pays you a zillion pennies you will likely have to pay some TX fees to spend them in a single big transaction.

2144 2011-06-13 14:25:14 <gmaxwell> This is annoying but not worse than not having the money at all.
2145 2011-06-13 14:25:28 <roconnor> gmaxwell: doesn't the network still accept 0 fee transactions?
2146 2011-06-13 14:25:54 <gmaxwell> roconnor: not if they are 50kbytes of data!
2147 2011-06-13 14:26:02 <Joric> i suppose the 'network' still mostly consists of 0.3.20
2148 2011-06-13 14:26:26 <roconnor> gmaxwell: no no, just tiny transactions sending 0.00001 to you, but lots of them.
2149 2011-06-13 14:26:27 emock has quit (Read error: Connection reset by peer)
2150 2011-06-13 14:26:36 <gmaxwell> Joric: gah .20 is no different in this regard.
2151 2011-06-13 14:27:06 <roconnor> gmaxwell: until you have so many tiny coins that you can't spend any significant amount of money.
2152 2011-06-13 14:27:12 <roconnor> (with the current client)
2153 2011-06-13 14:27:19 <jrmithdobbs> roconnor: plz dos me
2154 2011-06-13 14:27:28 <gmaxwell> no me darnit!
2155 2011-06-13 14:27:29 <roconnor> jrmithdobbs: like I said, I have no coins to dos you with
2156 2011-06-13 14:27:38 <jrmithdobbs> if someone does it to me i'll show you how to fix it ;P
2157 2011-06-13 14:27:44 <Joric> jrmithdobbs, i can send you ten picocents in ten transactions, will it suit you?
2158 2011-06-13 14:27:47 <gmaxwell> roconnor: the coin selection is dumb but I don't think it would fall prey to that.
2159 2011-06-13 14:28:12 <roconnor> gmaxwell: isn't this what Joric is complaining about, having effectively DOSed himself accidentally.
2160 2011-06-13 14:28:26 <iz> roconnor: that is DoS condition is easily fixed by consolidating into another bitcoin addr first, right?
2161 2011-06-13 14:28:29 <gmaxwell> roconnor: nah, he's asked a pool for 0.01 scale payouts and thats all he has.
2162 2011-06-13 14:28:43 <Joric> i only have four 0.01 payouts
2163 2011-06-13 14:28:46 <jrmithdobbs> Joric: sure: 1GzTowCbnQVz6XpxAXEvEsuu8iKLUD3wHm
2164 2011-06-13 14:28:48 <gmaxwell> roconnor: like four of them. Which he will be able to send without a fee once they age.
2165 2011-06-13 14:28:50 <jrmithdobbs> Joric: i'm not sending them back though
2166 2011-06-13 14:29:13 <Joric> jrmithdobbs, it was a sarcasm
2167 2011-06-13 14:29:40 <roconnor> oh, then I misunderstood

2171 2011-06-13 14:30:12 <gmaxwell> roconnor: well, you might be right by accident. As I said, the coin selection is sometimes moronic.
2172 2011-06-13 14:30:14 emock has joined
2173 2011-06-13 14:30:17 <jrmithdobbs> roconnor: hence the spam of "plz dos me" from so many so quick, heh
2174 2011-06-13 14:30:20 <Joric> also i've tired of BTC adresses on irc
2175 2011-06-13 14:30:51 <roconnor> I wonder what an optimal coin selection algorithm would be.
2176 2011-06-13 14:31:08 <jrmithdobbs> depends on the intended txn size
2177 2011-06-13 14:31:11 ericmock has joined
2178 2011-06-13 14:31:22 <jrmithdobbs> well value not size
2179 2011-06-13 14:31:22 <iz> also depends on what you have in your accts
2180 2011-06-13 14:31:39 <roconnor> um, these are all inputs to the algorthm
2181 2011-06-13 14:31:40 <jrmithdobbs> bigger the value of the txn the easier it is to pick inputs smartly
2182 2011-06-13 14:31:45 <iz> it's like those math questions where you have a certain amount of change in your pocket and you want to make $1.73
2183 2011-06-13 14:32:49 <roconnor> iz: it's a little like that, but each coin as a weight (mass in kilobytes) as well as a value.
2184 2011-06-13 14:32:57 <jrmithdobbs> roconnor: it'd really be at least two different algorithms, one for > 1btc txn value and one for <1
2185 2011-06-13 14:32:58 <gmaxwell> I think the actual optimal selection (considering priority, tx fees, tx size, anonymity) is most likely an NP problem.
2186 2011-06-13 14:33:11 <gmaxwell> (for any non-trivial mixture of those factors)
2187 2011-06-13 14:33:13 <iz> roconnor: ah, yeah.. right
2188 2011-06-13 14:33:14 <roconnor> and you don't really want to minimize mass  since you don't want to be left with all heavy coins one day.
2189 2011-06-13 14:33:33 <jrmithdobbs> gmaxwell: you can fudge it close enough though
2190 2011-06-13 14:33:51 <gmaxwell> sure, and for small wallets you could just try all the input mixtures.
2191 2011-06-13 14:34:05 <jrmithdobbs> ya big wallets is where it gets hard
2192 2011-06-13 14:34:07 <Joric> BTC costs $20 currently i doubt about just <1

2194 2011-06-13 14:34:21 <roconnor> and while you are spending coins you get an opporutnity at the same time to consolidate some heavy worthless coins.
2195 2011-06-13 14:34:24 <Joric> 0.1 is $2 already
2196 2011-06-13 14:34:29 <jrmithdobbs> where big >= ~65k privkeys
2197 2011-06-13 14:35:15 <jrmithdobbs> roconnor: the heavy coin problem would actually not be an undesired result
2198 2011-06-13 14:35:32 <jrmithdobbs> roconnor: seeing as a routine to consolidate them in a fairly short period is trivial to write
2199 2011-06-13 14:35:38 <gmaxwell> jrmithdobbs: how did it work with a zillion keys.
2200 2011-06-13 14:35:40 <jrmithdobbs> just doesn't exist in current client
2201 2011-06-13 14:35:44 <gmaxwell> jrmithdobbs: but zomg anonymity.

2207 2011-06-13 14:36:12 <jrmithdobbs> roconnor: you just have to make the individual txns small enough

2226 2011-06-13 14:38:57 <gmaxwell> though places where it says 0.01 need to be replaced with 0.0005
2227 2011-06-13 14:39:06 <jrmithdobbs> that's better than last time i looked at that article a month and a half or 2 ago

2313 2011-06-13 15:02:15 <Joric> i've restored a wallet from a 2 days old copy, looks like i've lost a few adresses (i've got all transactions though), should i worry?
2314 2011-06-13 15:02:28 <mtrlt> do you still have all your money?
2315 2011-06-13 15:02:36 <Joric> looks like yes
2316 2011-06-13 15:02:42 <gmaxwell> Joric: if you got the transactions then you have the addresses, they are just hidden (it thinks they are change)
2317 2011-06-13 15:02:48 <Joric> may i add those manually? i see them in a log
2318 2011-06-13 15:03:07 <jrmithdobbs> ya it probably thinks they're change
2319 2011-06-13 15:03:07 <mtrlt> you see what in the log?
2320 2011-06-13 15:03:07 <gmaxwell> if you assign them to an account I think they'll show up (according to random comments on IRC)
2321 2011-06-13 15:03:17 <mtrlt> and what log :p
2322 2011-06-13 15:03:20 <jrmithdobbs> why does it hide change addresses at all?
2323 2011-06-13 15:03:26 <jrmithdobbs> that seems counterproductive to me
2324 2011-06-13 15:03:29 <Joric> in the list of transactions
2325 2011-06-13 15:03:39 <jrmithdobbs> client really should explicitly show change txns and addresses
2326 2011-06-13 15:04:35 <genewitch> change what
2327 2011-06-13 15:04:44 <Joric> looks like they were taken from a 100-addresses pregenerated pool

2427 2011-06-13 15:54:57 <Diablo-D3> its impossible to make a compiler do this exactly correct
2428 2011-06-13 15:56:08 <directhex> exactly correct? no, probably not. but proprietary compilers buy you varying degrees of best-effort
2429 2011-06-13 15:56:25 <directhex> then again i've seen benchmarks in recent years where GCC can compete. it's all highly code-dependent
2430 2011-06-13 15:56:46 <Diablo-D3> I mean in the context of this
2431 2011-06-13 15:56:53 <directhex> oh, sure.
2432 2011-06-13 15:57:26 <Diablo-D3> compilers mostly choke on trying to fully optimize extremely small vector-able code.
2433 2011-06-13 15:57:32 <Diablo-D3> especially when every single instruction counts

2570 2011-06-13 18:21:55 <ArdaXi> gjs278: Being sure means it's been decided not to.
2571 2011-06-13 18:22:00 <forrestv> if a node accepts a txn, what could cause it to remove it from the pool to be included in the next block it mines?
2572 2011-06-13 18:22:11 <forrestv> the txn appearing in another block is obvious
2573 2011-06-13 18:22:17 <gjs278> the hashing will never change
2574 2011-06-13 18:22:27 <ersi> ArdaXi: No one said anything about being sure.
2575 2011-06-13 18:22:34 <ArdaXi> gjs278: Now that's false.

2579 2011-06-13 18:23:07 <ArdaXi> Anyway, well, it could be true, if Bitcoin dies out before SHA-2 is broken.
2580 2011-06-13 18:23:25 <ArdaXi> Otherwise it dies the moment SHA-2 is broken.

2582 2011-06-13 18:24:18 <gjs278> "broken" usually means people find a way to just match it slightly faster reducing its difficulty, it's not like someone will ever make a thing that you just input a hash and it decodes it right there
2583 2011-06-13 18:24:28 <tcatm> in a way bitcoin is already breaking SHA-2 (using brute force)
2584 2011-06-13 18:24:36 <gjs278> so if it was "broken" then everyone would just speed up a bit

2592 2011-06-13 18:25:49 <ArdaXi> But that doesn't protect against forking the chain.
2593 2011-06-13 18:26:18 <tcatm> sure, the new, faster SHA-2 code will set the new difficulty
2594 2011-06-13 18:26:19 <ArdaXi> Unless everyone uses the new broken method, in which case the difficulty will eventually run into its limit.

2599 2011-06-13 18:26:47 <tcatm> you can't speed up SHA-256 infinitely either
2600 2011-06-13 18:26:50 <gjs278> but it will still take awhile

2604 2011-06-13 18:27:01 <gjs278> so the speed of block gen wil increase, and then difficulty will adjust
2605 2011-06-13 18:27:22 <phantomcircuit> ArdaXi, contrary to popular believe there *is* a mechanism for replacing SHA256
2606 2011-06-13 18:27:25 <ArdaXi> gjs278: The difficulty can't increase quickly enough to counter that.
2607 2011-06-13 18:27:27 <phantomcircuit> blocks have a version number

2618 2011-06-13 18:28:02 <phantomcircuit> the hashing is extremely unlikely to change anytime this decade
2619 2011-06-13 18:28:03 <vegard> ArdaXi: are you aware of how much the difficulty can still go up?
2620 2011-06-13 18:28:13 <ArdaXi> vegard: Yes. Are you aware of how much SHA-2 can be sped up?
2621 2011-06-13 18:28:27 <ArdaXi> phantomcircuit: That depends on a lot of factors.
2622 2011-06-13 18:28:27 <gjs278> the difficulty can go as high as it needs to
2623 2011-06-13 18:28:31 <roconnor> is the version number checked when validating a block?
2624 2011-06-13 18:28:31 <ArdaXi> gjs278: No.
2625 2011-06-13 18:28:34 <gjs278> yes it can
2626 2011-06-13 18:28:50 <ArdaXi> gjs278: In an unsigned integer, what's lower than 0?
2627 2011-06-13 18:28:55 <phantomcircuit> ArdaXi, actually it just depends on how badly sha256 is broken
2628 2011-06-13 18:28:55 <tcatm> ArdaXi: are you aware of how many shortcuts recent miners make to speed up the hashing (basically exploiting SHA-256)?

2632 2011-06-13 18:29:29 <gjs278> ArdaXi something as simple as an unsigned integer isn't going to stop the difficulty to rise

2658 2011-06-13 18:31:25 <ArdaXi> The target is a 256-bit number (extremely large) that all Bitcoin clients share. The SHA-256 hash of a block's header must be lower than or equal to the current target for the block to be accepted by the network. The lower the target, the more difficult it is to generate a block.

2672 2011-06-13 18:33:00 <tcatm> ArdaXi: you can only tweak nonce and ntime to get a matching hash and if difficulty is very high that's not enough and you need to change the merkle root

2685 2011-06-13 18:34:53 <pusle> point is, if you only build on txs which are present in both chains

2696 2011-06-13 18:36:30 <ArdaXi> pusle: Okay, but what about generation?
2697 2011-06-13 18:36:43 <ArdaXi> You can't have both chains generate bitcoins.
2698 2011-06-13 18:36:54 <pusle> that would stay with the original chain
2699 2011-06-13 18:36:56 <ArdaXi> Generation would only ever be in one of the chain.
2700 2011-06-13 18:37:02 <ArdaXi> So why would anyone run the other one?
2701 2011-06-13 18:37:03 <pusle> the home user x86 chain would be hero work :

2704 2011-06-13 18:37:18 <ArdaXi> pusle: That means less people will run it
2705 2011-06-13 18:37:19 <pusle> nope, only the original one generates coins
2706 2011-06-13 18:37:21 <ArdaXi> Ergo easy to attack
2707 2011-06-13 18:37:28 <pusle> nope coz you have to break both

2710 2011-06-13 18:37:48 <pusle> in the begining yes
2711 2011-06-13 18:37:50 <ArdaXi> I don't see how something that's really easy to break increases security.
2712 2011-06-13 18:38:06 <pusle> but you can't claim it gets MORE easy with a easy peasy lock next to the big bad one
2713 2011-06-13 18:38:07 <ArdaXi> That's like proposing SHA-1 to increase the security of the current SHA-2.
2714 2011-06-13 18:38:18 <pusle> nope
2715 2011-06-13 18:38:22 <ArdaXi> pusle: You can't claim it gets significantly harder either.

2719 2011-06-13 18:38:34 <pusle> they have no money incentive either
2720 2011-06-13 18:38:52 <pusle> so imagine millions of bitcoin users "donating" 1 core of their 4 or 8 to secure their own money
2721 2011-06-13 18:39:00 <ArdaXi> pusle: I can't.
2722 2011-06-13 18:39:03 <ArdaXi> Not millions
2723 2011-06-13 18:39:07 <ArdaXi> Definitely not millions.
2724 2011-06-13 18:39:07 <pusle> it's not unrealistic
2725 2011-06-13 18:39:11 <ArdaXi> It is.
2726 2011-06-13 18:39:19 <ArdaXi> You're only going to get a small subset of the miners we have now.
2727 2011-06-13 18:39:19 <pusle> ok, neither can prove it :)
2728 2011-06-13 18:39:29 <upb> its pointless to use 2 chains to increase difficuly
2729 2011-06-13 18:39:32 <upb> +t
2730 2011-06-13 18:39:34 <ArdaXi> upb: Exactly.
2731 2011-06-13 18:39:35 <pusle> we will have everything we have now + additional security
2732 2011-06-13 18:39:45 <pusle> is it?
2733 2011-06-13 18:39:48 <ArdaXi> pusle: Exactly. It's like adding an SHA-1 hash to increase the security of an SHA-2 hash.
2734 2011-06-13 18:39:52 <pusle> explain how 2 locks are worse than 1
2735 2011-06-13 18:39:57 <ArdaXi> pusle: More work involved.
2736 2011-06-13 18:40:01 <upb> you could just aswell change some bit in the input to 1
2737 2011-06-13 18:40:04 <pusle> even if , atleast at the start, that new lock is kinda flimsy
2738 2011-06-13 18:40:07 <upb> and 0
2739 2011-06-13 18:40:15 <upb> and require that everyone hash those two inputs

2745 2011-06-13 18:40:33 <ArdaXi> Adding a flimsy lock next to a sturdy lock does not increase security
2746 2011-06-13 18:40:37 <ArdaXi> but it does increase work
2747 2011-06-13 18:40:43 <pusle> yes it does, by a small amount
2748 2011-06-13 18:40:50 <pusle> coz you need different "tools" to crack them

2763 2011-06-13 18:41:38 <edcba> if myownhash = (x & 1) doing sha1+myownhash is more secure than sha1 itself ? :)
2764 2011-06-13 18:41:42 <ArdaXi> That is much, much safer.
2765 2011-06-13 18:41:48 <pusle> you keep the big lock
2766 2011-06-13 18:41:49 <pusle> add another

2772 2011-06-13 18:42:09 <ArdaXi> if we define the current difficulty as 1

2774 2011-06-13 18:42:15 <ArdaXi> Then with your method
2775 2011-06-13 18:42:21 <ArdaXi> the difficulty is now 1.00000000000000000000000000000000000000001

2779 2011-06-13 18:42:49 <ArdaXi> I'm suggesting sha3(input)
2780 2011-06-13 18:42:50 <pusle> ppl with 4 or more cores won't donate 1 core to secure their money?
2781 2011-06-13 18:42:53 <pusle> I think they will
2782 2011-06-13 18:42:56 <ArdaXi> pusle: Correct.
2783 2011-06-13 18:42:57 <ArdaXi> They won't.
2784 2011-06-13 18:43:04 <ArdaXi> Not by a significant enough mark.
2785 2011-06-13 18:43:08 <pusle> well that's your opinion against mine
2786 2011-06-13 18:43:16 <vegard> ArdaXi: do you really think sha256 is so insecure?
2787 2011-06-13 18:43:16 TD has joined
2788 2011-06-13 18:43:20 <ArdaXi> vegard: No.
2789 2011-06-13 18:43:27 <pusle> and you can't know either so what the harm with another lock
2790 2011-06-13 18:43:32 <ArdaXi> But I think SHA-3 is more secure than SHA-2 + SHA-2
2791 2011-06-13 18:43:40 <gmaxwell> SHA-3 will be less secure than SHA-256x2 for quite some time.
2792 2011-06-13 18:43:45 <ArdaXi> pusle: The effort involved.
2793 2011-06-13 18:43:46 <pusle> sha256(sha256()) is quite good
2794 2011-06-13 18:43:55 <ArdaXi> gmaxwell: How so?
2795 2011-06-13 18:43:57 <pusle> ppl have their comps on 24/7 anyway
2796 2011-06-13 18:43:57 <minus> drop in a salt
2797 2011-06-13 18:44:01 <gmaxwell> ArdaXi: security comes from time and cryptanalysis, which SHA-3 will not have for a while.
2798 2011-06-13 18:44:04 <edcba> stop doubling hash it's not a good idea
2799 2011-06-13 18:44:10 <ArdaXi> gmaxwell: I'm talking about sha3(sha3(input)) of course
2800 2011-06-13 18:44:15 <Namegduf> In this case, I think it is.
2801 2011-06-13 18:44:24 <gmaxwell> edcba: it's just sha-256 with twice the number of rounds.
2802 2011-06-13 18:44:24 <Namegduf> Pretty sure the doubling is done to counter a specific attack
2803 2011-06-13 18:44:30 DrewSJ has quit (Quit: Download IceChat at www.icechat.net)
2804 2011-06-13 18:44:33 <ArdaXi> gmaxwell: Fair enough, but SHA-256 has already lost to cryptanalysis. Not significantly, of course, but still.
2805 2011-06-13 18:44:34 <Namegduf> Oh, huh.
2806 2011-06-13 18:44:39 <Namegduf> Maybe I'm wrong.
2807 2011-06-13 18:44:46 <pusle> lost? I can't see it has been broken at all
2808 2011-06-13 18:44:49 <roconnor> gmaxwell: it's not that simle.  it gets repadded for the second call to sha256
2809 2011-06-13 18:44:52 <vegard> ArdaXi: it hasn't
2810 2011-06-13 18:44:52 <pusle> just a few bits with lots of memory use
2811 2011-06-13 18:44:52 <roconnor> *simple
2812 2011-06-13 18:44:56 <gmaxwell> ArdaXi: ... er. So have the SHA-3 candidates.
2813 2011-06-13 18:45:01 <ArdaXi> There have been attacks on SHA-2
2814 2011-06-13 18:45:03 <iz> yeah, what roconnor said
2815 2011-06-13 18:45:27 <pusle> 251 vs 256 bits isn't much (if my information is correct)
2816 2011-06-13 18:45:29 <edcba> Namegduf: i think satoshi doubled the hash because he thought that would prevent some optimisations to calculate the hash
2817 2011-06-13 18:45:30 <Namegduf> I thought the doubling prevented appending to an existing hash or something.
2818 2011-06-13 18:45:43 <gmaxwell> in any case, with 1x sha256 we'd be in a weird (?) case of the fpgas smoking the gpus.
2819 2011-06-13 18:45:44 <vegard> ArdaXi: url?

2821 2011-06-13 18:45:59 <roconnor> if the padding somehow weakens SHA256, then doubleing sha256 won't help any.
2822 2011-06-13 18:46:10 <pusle> more rounds add security in all papers I've read about crypto

2828 2011-06-13 18:46:33 <gmaxwell> the best attack on skein is against 50 rounds or something like that.
2829 2011-06-13 18:46:47 <edcba> crypto primitives have to be used how crypto ppl intended you to use them
2830 2011-06-13 18:46:49 <ArdaXi> Of course, cryptography is a always-losing battle.
2831 2011-06-13 18:46:51 <edcba> that's that simple :)
2832 2011-06-13 18:46:57 * roconnor notes there is an awful lot of 0's in that padding
2833 2011-06-13 18:47:00 zyb has joined
2834 2011-06-13 18:47:05 <pusle> but attacks that reduces brute force by a few bits, with huge memory cost is not really an attack in real life TM
2835 2011-06-13 18:47:07 <ArdaXi> Which is why we should always be prepared to move onto new hash methods.
2836 2011-06-13 18:47:26 <gmaxwell> edcba: the fuctions used in bitcoin was pretty carefully analyzied. It wasn't just random decisions.

2849 2011-06-13 18:48:38 <roconnor> iz: the second round of sha256 always hashes a fixed size.

2893 2011-06-13 18:52:38 <gmaxwell> Satoshi was quite concerned that the overhead was too much for the system to be viable already.

2897 2011-06-13 18:53:13 <pusle> maybe what I'm talking about must wait for a while
2898 2011-06-13 18:53:15 <pusle> I'm okay with that

2900 2011-06-13 18:53:22 <pusle> but it should be possible to discuss it

2910 2011-06-13 18:54:41 <edcba> wtf bot isn't working anymore ?

2914 2011-06-13 18:55:01 <pusle> without idealists, bitcoin would never have seen  the light of day
2915 2011-06-13 18:55:13 <ArdaXi> pusle: that's not the same as 'the ends don't justify the means'.
2916 2011-06-13 18:55:20 <edcba> but without numbers you can say it eventually die in future :)

2919 2011-06-13 18:56:01 <pusle> what I know for a fact is that bandwidth in the network and storage capacity does not go down with time
2920 2011-06-13 18:56:04 <ArdaXi> pusle: Bitcoin has obvious, quantifiable advantages, even when offset to the costs. Your idea doesn't.

2924 2011-06-13 18:56:32 <ArdaXi> But the available bandwidth will, eventually, go down with time.
2925 2011-06-13 18:56:38 <upb> all this 'two chains' talk is totally crazy
2926 2011-06-13 18:56:39 * roconnor finishes implementing lockTime
2927 2011-06-13 18:56:57 <gmaxwell> pusle: we need that bandwidth increase in order to handle bitcoin growth.
2928 2011-06-13 18:57:01 <ArdaXi> Unless we manage to change the speed of light, or figure out string theory, that is.
2929 2011-06-13 18:57:04 <upb> pusle: in your analogy youre not adding a second lock to a door but a new door with a lock :)
2930 2011-06-13 18:57:06 <edcba> we'll change chain/protocol when we'll have real problems with these one i guess
2931 2011-06-13 18:57:10 <gmaxwell> pusle: it's far from clear that it will keep up.
2932 2011-06-13 18:57:33 <ArdaXi> Not every node adds as much bandwidth to the network as he takes.
2933 2011-06-13 18:57:34 <gmaxwell> pusle: especially becuase the security and independance of bitcoin requires maximum diversity.
2934 2011-06-13 18:57:38 <pusle> okay, maybe I'm an optimist then :)
2935 2011-06-13 18:57:38 <edcba> don't really see how we could convince ppl to change chain without "real" reason
2936 2011-06-13 18:57:56 <pusle> it's not changing chain
2937 2011-06-13 18:58:08 <edcba> right now the problem i see with bitcoin is pool/mtgox
2938 2011-06-13 18:58:08 <pusle> the dual lock on the same door anology is correct
2939 2011-06-13 18:58:12 <edcba> 2 spof

2941 2011-06-13 18:58:16 <gmaxwell> pusle: if only a few wealthy parties (governments, banks, etc) can afford to run full nodes then bitcoin will miss the mark of its original goal.
2942 2011-06-13 18:58:30 <pusle> well that's my fear with the current system
2943 2011-06-13 18:58:38 <gmaxwell> I'd take double the number of full nodes over an improved hashfunction _any day_

2947 2011-06-13 18:59:16 <edcba> we should have some gpu-adverse hashing function
2948 2011-06-13 18:59:19 * roconnor is still expecting the largest pools to consipire to exclude everyone else.
2949 2011-06-13 18:59:20 <gmaxwell> pusle: it gains them no non-trivial advantage.
2950 2011-06-13 18:59:30 <gmaxwell> edcba: you mean botnet positive hashing function?
2951 2011-06-13 18:59:34 <pusle> but if average ppls computers are competitive (on this extra chain protecting the same tx's) then if bitcoin does grow huge eventually no goverment can touch it
2952 2011-06-13 18:59:39 <edcba> gmaxwell: yes lol
2953 2011-06-13 19:00:08 <ArdaXi> pusle: Governments will always be able to touch it. Whether they can do so significantly is another thing.
2954 2011-06-13 19:00:13 <pusle> gmaxwell: I too hope this is just growing pains but I'm not sure
2955 2011-06-13 19:00:19 <gmaxwell> edcba: that was one of the first arguments I made in public and art made the botnet comment to me. duh.  We're much better off with the gpus. (and in th future, asics)
2956 2011-06-13 19:00:25 * ArdaXi waits for torrents simile.
2957 2011-06-13 19:00:44 <pusle> point is that botnet alone will not open the door
2958 2011-06-13 19:00:45 <gmaxwell> pusle: avery ppls computers are never going to be competative on their own, they'll have to pool
2959 2011-06-13 19:00:50 <pusle> sha asics alone will not open the door
2960 2011-06-13 19:00:53 <pusle> you gotta have both
2961 2011-06-13 19:00:57 <pusle> that makes it harder to attack
2962 2011-06-13 19:01:02 <gmaxwell> pusle: the reward rate is a very careful tradeoff betwen propagation time vs split risk.
2963 2011-06-13 19:01:15 <edcba> anyway it seems very hard to do some anti-gpu hasdh

2967 2011-06-13 19:01:42 <pusle> if you cant' make money, and are just  contributing out of idealism there is no point with pools

2971 2011-06-13 19:02:15 <pusle> something very branchy and memory hungry will scale badly in asics

2995 2011-06-13 19:04:41 <gmaxwell> and it's not good for bitcoin.
2996 2011-06-13 19:04:50 <pusle> I work in telecom industry so I'm not completely without knowledge
2997 2011-06-13 19:04:54 <gmaxwell> because it would just reward botnet operators instead of responsible parties.
2998 2011-06-13 19:05:23 <pusle> no coz the botnet operarators would have to have a ton of sha256 asic as well
2999 2011-06-13 19:05:32 <pusle> and that's my point
3000 2011-06-13 19:05:35 <pusle> the tools to break one lock
3001 2011-06-13 19:05:38 <pusle> is bad for breaking the other
3002 2011-06-13 19:05:42 <pusle> that's the purpose

3012 2011-06-13 19:06:45 <gmaxwell> ArdaXi: results of not thinking much... it just becomes "use botnet for part A" and then you can get an advantage over the rest of the network in two different ways rather than just one.
3013 2011-06-13 19:06:49 <pusle> if no, then it will fail
3014 2011-06-13 19:06:49 <ArdaXi> pusle: No.
3015 2011-06-13 19:06:56 <ArdaXi> Not all people, anyway.
3016 2011-06-13 19:07:03 <ArdaXi> Probably not enough people.
3017 2011-06-13 19:07:19 <roconnor> I wonder if oldest-coins-first is a reasonable heuristic
3018 2011-06-13 19:07:36 <ArdaXi> roconnor: Hm?
3019 2011-06-13 19:07:39 <pusle> ArdaXi: then I will claim you also think bitcoin will fail

3023 2011-06-13 19:08:13 <roconnor> ArdaXi: for deciding which coins to use in a transaction.  AFAIU the current heuristic is smallest coins first.
3024 2011-06-13 19:08:14 <pusle> if bitcoin takes over a few % of that
3025 2011-06-13 19:08:18 <ArdaXi> pusle: Banks have financial incentive to protect their transactions.
3026 2011-06-13 19:08:23 <pusle> and a few % of those does this voluntary
3027 2011-06-13 19:08:39 <pusle> I'm talking numbers
3028 2011-06-13 19:08:50 <pusle> okay, I'll go find a shed to paint now

3034 2011-06-13 19:09:40 <roconnor> gmaxwell: why do I want smallest first?
3035 2011-06-13 19:09:41 <iz> how does solving difficulty 1 shares help a pool really?  or is that just like.. for proof of checking the work space given?
3036 2011-06-13 19:09:50 <ArdaXi> iz: The latter.
3037 2011-06-13 19:09:54 <iz> that's what i thought
3038 2011-06-13 19:09:57 <ArdaXi> It's just making sure you're actually hashing.
3039 2011-06-13 19:10:05 <gmaxwell> roconnor: to get rid of them.
3040 2011-06-13 19:10:23 <gmaxwell> iz: the real solutions are a subset, so its a most excellent proof.
3041 2011-06-13 19:10:35 <iz> yeah, agree
3042 2011-06-13 19:10:45 <roconnor> gmaxwell: to shrink the size of my wallet?
3043 2011-06-13 19:10:58 <ArdaXi> roconnor: To shrink the size of future transactions.
3044 2011-06-13 19:11:05 <gmaxwell> roconnor: to have fewer small coins floating around which will bloat future txn, I think...
3045 2011-06-13 19:11:26 <ArdaXi> If a transaction needs too many inputs, the transaction is bigger, and requires fees.
3046 2011-06-13 19:11:27 <roconnor> gmaxwell: heh. I don't see how bloating now is better than bloating later.
3047 2011-06-13 19:11:34 <gmaxwell> But really it's more complicated, ideally you want to use as many small txn as you can still fit in under 1kb. :)
3048 2011-06-13 19:11:43 <ArdaXi> roconnor: Because there's a hard limit of 1 KB that incurs fees.
3049 2011-06-13 19:11:46 <roconnor> gmaxwell: oh is that the computation I want.

3054 2011-06-13 19:12:26 <ArdaXi> So, to fix a wallet that's already suffered this problem, you'll want to create as much transactions as you need of <1 KB that combine smaller coins into bigger ones.
3055 2011-06-13 19:12:41 <ArdaXi> If you don't care about anonimity, you can just combine them all into one output, always.
3056 2011-06-13 19:12:46 <gmaxwell> e.g. costing out all combinations of one/two/three inputs might be pretty reasonable for most users.
3057 2011-06-13 19:13:32 <roconnor> gmaxwell: I expect online services could rack up lots of txns
3058 2011-06-13 19:13:34 <forrestv> is anybody here an admin on the forums? i need to get activated :/
3059 2011-06-13 19:13:36 <gmaxwell> ArdaXi: for anonymity you'd ideally want to color addresses by co-input contamination... ugh.

3061 2011-06-13 19:14:01 <ArdaXi> gmaxwell: Yeah, but if you don't care, you can just combine it all into one output and never give any transaction more than one input.
3062 2011-06-13 19:14:28 <ArdaXi> For example, you can have two addresses, one on which you combine all your anonymous inputs, and one on which you combine all your non-anonymous inputs.
3063 2011-06-13 19:14:35 <ArdaXi> So long as they never mix, you get the best of both worlds.
3064 2011-06-13 19:14:43 <gmaxwell> ArdaXi: well you don't want a chaining feed of all your coin becaus the returning coin has to confirm.
3065 2011-06-13 19:14:49 d1234 has quit (Ping timeout: 258 seconds)
3066 2011-06-13 19:15:09 <ArdaXi> gmaxwell: True, but if you get the combining TX into the next block, it only takes 7 confirmations instead of 6.
3067 2011-06-13 19:15:11 <gmaxwell> ArdaXi: I call that "running two wallets" ;)
3068 2011-06-13 19:15:27 <ArdaXi> gmaxwell: Yeah, except you never run into the issue of having a TX over 1 KB.
3069 2011-06-13 19:15:37 <ArdaXi> And it makes the network require far less bandwidth in total.

3071 2011-06-13 19:15:47 <gmaxwell> the faucet was using that kind of rolling txn for a long time. Well, still does, but now with send-many.
3072 2011-06-13 19:15:48 bitcoiner has joined
3073 2011-06-13 19:15:56 <ArdaXi> But it needs to be handled more carefully by the user.
3074 2011-06-13 19:16:13 <gmaxwell> ArdaXi: you'd have >1 input whenever you had recieved more funds.
3075 2011-06-13 19:16:22 <ArdaXi> gmaxwell: Well, yes, then you'd have 2.
3076 2011-06-13 19:16:25 <gmaxwell> (to merge them into the spool txn)
3077 2011-06-13 19:16:36 <ArdaXi> But never more than 2.
3078 2011-06-13 19:16:47 <gmaxwell> actually you might just have never more than two, just run N spools that eventually merge.
3079 2011-06-13 19:17:01 <ArdaXi> Exactly. If you do it from the start, you never have more than 2 inputs per TX.
3080 2011-06-13 19:17:05 <gmaxwell> hah yep.
3081 2011-06-13 19:17:32 <ArdaXi> But it requires 3 inputs per transaction.
3082 2011-06-13 19:17:43 <ArdaXi> One for the initial transaction, and 2 for the merger.
3083 2011-06-13 19:17:48 <ArdaXi> Rather than just 1.
3084 2011-06-13 19:18:30 <gmaxwell> hm? there is the continued, then some other txn that you're picking up, then the output and the change to be the next continued.
3085 2011-06-13 19:18:44 <ArdaXi> Yeah.
3086 2011-06-13 19:18:48 <gmaxwell> if your send rate is > your rx you'll eventually groom all txn into the spool.
3087 2011-06-13 19:19:05 <ArdaXi> Yeah, but for every incoming transaction you need to publish another transaction to merge them.
3088 2011-06-13 19:19:41 <gmaxwell> or don't. just leave them seperate until a send gives you a chance to take an extra input or two.

3090 2011-06-13 19:20:07 <ArdaXi> gmaxwell: Yeah, and then you get around the TX fee that every transaction will eventually have too.

3178 2011-06-13 20:11:18 <falafell> bitcoin growing up as in more acceptance by people and merchants
3179 2011-06-13 20:11:28 <achim> The realtive amount which dealers use on stock exchnage ? ;-))
3180 2011-06-13 20:11:57 <phantomcircuit> achim, if volume increases the ability of a small group of people to move the market so drastically
3181 2011-06-13 20:12:13 <achim> IF "What" grows up? The number of realeed/existing BTC? No, sorry , this is surely NOT suffiecinet!
3182 2011-06-13 20:12:42 <achim> but people use BTC alomst for BTC-trading, only a few big dealers will collect most BTCs! :)

3420 2011-06-13 21:28:57 <TD> base58 is a bitcoin-specific encoding

3422 2011-06-13 21:29:02 <TD> it doesn't need a wikipedia page

3432 2011-06-13 21:30:59 <Theo`> and = is not a Base64 alphabet character, / is

3657 2011-06-13 22:34:06 <unclemantis> gribble is laggin bad
3658 2011-06-13 22:34:35 <F4C3> jgarzik, not a bad idea. maybe ill just integrate the service/interface into the coindaemon app.  i think im going to have to go a different direction than hosting services and sell it more as a control panel.  but really not sure..

3660 2011-06-13 22:34:38 <phantomcircuit> IoWn3rU, HFT is usually sub 10ms trades, first off you'd need to buy hosting at the same place as mtgox which is $$$ then you need to get/process trades faster than everybody else doing it does
3661 2011-06-13 22:34:55 <phantomcircuit> IoWn3rU, and in the arms race of faster software c# is not going to be a winner
3662 2011-06-13 22:35:36 <IoWn3rU> phantomcircuit: of course C++ is faster and that's what all the trading shops use, but considering there are little bots trading now on Mt. Gox, I think even a C# or Java bot would trade faster than a human
3663 2011-06-13 22:35:43 <F4C3> hell, ive been so tired lately from writing apps after writing work that ive been considering just open sourcing the damn thing and walking away.

3716 2011-06-13 22:43:21 <grand_grunt> lfm: Yes, but it wouldn't worth it if the cpuminer doesn't use HW acceleration.
3717 2011-06-13 22:43:33 <erle-> lfm, which one do you check out?
3718 2011-06-13 22:44:03 <spq> grand_grunt: so youll probably have to code your own miner or better modify one of those gpu miners
3719 2011-06-13 22:44:05 <lfm> grand_grunt: look at the VIA C7 support in cpu miner, thats using the VIA padlock sha256 hardware instruction
3720 2011-06-13 22:44:42 <grand_grunt> spq: ok, thanks. These bitcoins would have the price of effort :P
3721 2011-06-13 22:44:57 <directhex> grand_grunt: you'd need to write your own miner (or modify an existing one), in order to achieve a fraction of the performance of a cheap radeon. as in "run the whole rack for a day to match 20 minutes on the radeon"
3722 2011-06-13 22:45:43 <lfm> grand_grunt: and whoever IS paying for the power may niotice an increase

3731 2011-06-13 22:48:57 <directhex> you won't notice a return. if we generously say 1) you write your own optimized sparc miner, and 2) run it nonstop without anyone noticing, and 3) very generously say a many-cpu sparc box could get 10mhash/s, you're looking at 1 coin per 2 months. assuming no difficulty changes.

3824 2011-06-13 23:24:56 <jrmithdobbs> cuddlefish: look for bluematt's pull on github "wallet encryption"
3825 2011-06-13 23:25:02 <cuddlefish> jrmithdobbs: not encrypted.
3826 2011-06-13 23:25:15 <cuddlefish> jrmithdobbs: the important part is the different passwords for each account
3827 2011-06-13 23:25:20 <jrmithdobbs> cuddlefish: encrypting it provides the same side effect of requiring the password
3828 2011-06-13 23:25:23 <xelister> yea why not just encrypt entire wallet... or just use encrypted full-system partition like a man
3829 2011-06-13 23:25:46 <cuddlefish> jrmithdobbs: Okay, but the important part is the DIFFERENT passwords for each accy
3830 2011-06-13 23:25:47 <jrmithdobbs> cuddlefish: oh i missed the different password for each account, that patch could be extended to support multiple encryption keys causing the same side effect
3831 2011-06-13 23:26:09 <cuddlefish> jrmithdobbs: I'll give 5 BTC if you'll do it
3832 2011-06-13 23:26:21 <jrmithdobbs> haha
3833 2011-06-13 23:26:38 <jrmithdobbs> cuddlefish: bluematt would probably take you up on that, it's his code i'm not familiar with it
3834 2011-06-13 23:26:40 <cuddlefish> hmm?

3854 2011-06-13 23:30:47 <jgarzik> I'm curious if 0.3.23-rc1 actuall shows "-rc1" anywhere besides filename?

3856 2011-06-13 23:30:58 <jgarzik> I'd like to simply rename it to 0.3.23

3862 2011-06-13 23:31:52 <jgarzik> cuddlefish: I don't want the official release to appear in a "0.3.23rc1" folder, for example
3863 2011-06-13 23:32:23 <cuddlefish> jgarzik: wow, prepping for release already? I sense bugfix :P
