1 2011-07-04 00:00:19 <sipa> not at all
2 2011-07-04 00:01:10 <sipa> i am saying that parameters for encryption should go in aglobak field,not a masterket specific one
3 2011-07-04 00:01:20 <sipa> a global field
4 2011-07-04 00:01:27 <sipa> masterkey
5 2011-07-04 00:01:31 <BlueMatt> why so?
6 2011-07-04 00:01:39 kermit has quit (Read error: Operation timed out)
7 2011-07-04 00:01:50 <sipa> because they are global for the whole wallet?
8 2011-07-04 00:02:12 kermit has joined
9 2011-07-04 00:02:16 <BlueMatt> well I mean the point of doing this in keys is so you can crypt keys with different methods, but why not extend to regular keys instead of just mkeys?

13 2011-07-04 00:02:48 <sipa> oh, you mean the parameters for encryption of the masterkey itself, not the wallet ekeys?
14 2011-07-04 00:02:58 <BlueMatt> I mean both
15 2011-07-04 00:02:59 <sipa> hmm
16 2011-07-04 00:02:59 kermit has joined
17 2011-07-04 00:03:31 <BlueMatt> I feel like if you are going to go all the way on one, do it on both
18 2011-07-04 00:03:42 <sipa> agree
19 2011-07-04 00:03:43 <BlueMatt> now all the way on keys, is just an int imo
20 2011-07-04 00:03:58 viggi has joined
21 2011-07-04 00:04:12 <sipa> but all ekeys need the same encryption
22 2011-07-04 00:04:15 <shLONG> guys
23 2011-07-04 00:04:21 <BlueMatt> why?
24 2011-07-04 00:04:28 <shLONG> how long does it take for bitcoins to be sent to anohter account ive been waititng like 40 mins
25 2011-07-04 00:04:30 <BlueMatt> they just need to be able to use the same size key
26 2011-07-04 00:04:45 <sipa> because there is only one masterkey?
27 2011-07-04 00:05:06 <BlueMatt> hence why they need to be able to use the same size key(s)
28 2011-07-04 00:05:10 <BlueMatt> in this case 2x32
29 2011-07-04 00:05:19 <BlueMatt> that doesnt mean it has to be encryption method x or y
30 2011-07-04 00:05:41 <sipa> meh, that it is exaggerated extensibility
31 2011-07-04 00:05:43 skeledrew1 has joined
32 2011-07-04 00:05:59 <BlueMatt> as is a huge map/vector in CMasterKey
33 2011-07-04 00:06:11 <BlueMatt> what key derivation method has more than maybe 4 parameters max?

37 2011-07-04 00:06:40 <sipa> if one encryption is not safe enough, reencrypt the whole wallet with a better type
38 2011-07-04 00:06:50 <sipa> and that should be possible
39 2011-07-04 00:07:03 <BlueMatt> that would easily be possible

45 2011-07-04 00:08:35 <sipa> kiba: ill do that tomorrow
46 2011-07-04 00:09:16 <mrenouf> Is there any language neutral documentation of the bitcoin protocol? I do not grok C++ but wish to create a new implementation.
47 2011-07-04 00:09:17 <sipa> BlueMatt: i see the encryption type for ekeys as defined by the masterkey
48 2011-07-04 00:09:33 <mrenouf> Or perhaps someone could just help me clarify a few things?
49 2011-07-04 00:09:45 <sipa> BlueMatt: only it is a part that canot be encrypted itself
50 2011-07-04 00:09:46 <BlueMatt> well if you have multiple master keys, they all have to have the same thing, so it would have to be global in a setting instead of masterkeys
51 2011-07-04 00:10:03 <sipa> my point exactly
52 2011-07-04 00:10:13 <sipa> there is only one masterkey
53 2011-07-04 00:10:29 <sipa> it is only possibly stored more than once
54 2011-07-04 00:10:46 <BlueMatt> but my point is there is nothing wrong with different types on each ckey. actually my point isnt that there is nothing wrong with that, but that I see the extensibility there as the same as adding a vector or map to masterkey
55 2011-07-04 00:11:42 <sipa> but being able to change the encryption of the whole file is useful
56 2011-07-04 00:11:59 <sipa> changing that of a single ckey isnt
57 2011-07-04 00:12:06 <BlueMatt> oh absolutely, but whats wrong with a uint256 instead of that much stuff
58 2011-07-04 00:12:35 <sipa> that's combining the disadvantages of both
59 2011-07-04 00:12:59 <sipa> a non-transparent encoding, and inefficient
60 2011-07-04 00:13:55 bravest has joined
61 2011-07-04 00:14:12 <BlueMatt> I just see a map or vector as a pain to read out on bitcointools or other programs...

64 2011-07-04 00:16:11 <BlueMatt> still much more of a pain than 4 ints

69 2011-07-04 00:19:06 <sipa> i just told you what is imho the cleanest way of supporting what i consider possibly useful

86 2011-07-04 00:22:47 <BlueMatt> I thought that was 4?
87 2011-07-04 00:22:52 <BlueMatt> or just 4 total?
88 2011-07-04 00:24:00 <sipa> what about using a string?

100 2011-07-04 00:26:17 <BlueMatt> I thought nDerivationMethod stays to represent that stuff, and vchOtherDerivationParameters for whatever other crap someone might need

166 2011-07-04 01:25:21 <Graet> and ppl in 11th that are annoeyd when they shoukld be in the 10 based on hashrates will be here talking to you

219 2011-07-04 01:42:54 <Diablo-D3> Graet: that table is wrong
220 2011-07-04 01:42:58 <Diablo-D3> it says bitclockers is at 10
221 2011-07-04 01:43:00 <Diablo-D3> they're at 100
222 2011-07-04 01:43:20 <ewal> bitclockers says 99 on my screen
223 2011-07-04 01:43:24 <Graet> mm it scrapes from dites, but i'll let mperth know, thanks
224 2011-07-04 01:43:34 <Diablo-D3> ewal: 99 != 10
225 2011-07-04 01:43:38 <Graet> actually mine too
226 2011-07-04 01:43:43 <Graet> refresh?

229 2011-07-04 01:43:57 <Diablo-D3> glitch I guess
230 2011-07-04 01:44:00 <ewal> I thought you were saying it was supposed to be at 100. 99 is close enough.

294 2011-07-04 02:13:12 <kgo> Hey I'm trying to run a miner on testnet. I want to make sure I'm setup right. It seems like I'm running, but I don't get hits for difficulty 0 like I do on a normal pool. Is this right?

302 2011-07-04 02:15:52 <kuboosh> Well this project isn't regarding bitcoin
303 2011-07-04 02:15:56 <kgo> marioxcc, Possibly. But when I'm mining with a pool, I see hashes that get accepted all the time. I'm not seeing that with my current setup on -testnet. I want to make sure this is normal. That I'll only see 'accepted' on a real hit. Or that I've got a crazy config.
304 2011-07-04 02:16:12 <b4epoche_> kuboosh: oh... yea
305 2011-07-04 02:16:14 <kgo> That I need to fix.

432 2011-07-04 04:18:28 <Evious> Hi, I'm writing an Erlang wrapper library for bitcoind, and have questions. 1. Are there any existing best practices for running bitcoind I should know about? 2. Is it possible to use stdin/stdout for commands instead of JSON-RPC, without using bitcoin as a wrapper?

440 2011-07-04 04:25:39 <^1bitc0inplz> Envious: I've not seen any provisions in the code for STDIN/STDOUT operations.... it looks like JSON-RPC is the only means of controlling it externally
441 2011-07-04 04:26:15 <^1bitc0inplz> however, I've pondered the idea of linking against it to remove the need to JSON-RPC and just making function calls... but, I'm too lazy :-)

445 2011-07-04 04:33:28 * Evious is mostly confused by the basic HTTP auth on a service restricted to localhost. In most cases someone can make a connection from localhost. I guess it's a casual deterrent in a multi-user system where users can't read each other's files...

455 2011-07-04 04:40:37 <hamush> so i'm sticking with .21 until i upgrade

470 2011-07-04 05:02:02 <jgarzik> jansson did that too. changed the number of arguments passed to json_loads(), without any thought to compatibility.
471 2011-07-04 05:02:10 <doublec> yeah, pretty frustrating
472 2011-07-04 05:02:40 <doublec> what version was used for building?
473 2011-07-04 05:02:51 <doublec> the build-unix.txt only mentions 1.5
474 2011-07-04 05:03:27 <doublec> UPNP_AddPortMapping has also changed number of arguments it seems
475 2011-07-04 05:03:57 <doublec> either that or the bitcoin code is wrong. It checks for a WX define to see if its windows and passes a different number of arguments if it is

522 2011-07-04 06:18:50 <[Tycho]> AFAIK it's the only existing open-source pool software.

695 2011-07-04 09:35:23 <UukGoblin> and to receive transactions it'd have to be powered on
696 2011-07-04 09:35:39 <UukGoblin> transmitting 3g data is inherently non-low-power ;-)
697 2011-07-04 09:36:16 <UukGoblin> well... maybe receiving isn't transmitting... we could ask the network to multicast bitcoin transactions via udp... ;-P

737 2011-07-04 10:04:24 <epscy> and internet does exist in developing countries, though I agree it may not be commonplace enough yet
738 2011-07-04 10:04:33 <lfm> well ya, you could just "dial up" when you need to do a transaction and bitcoin will try to catch back up to the block chain, then if you receive funds you need to stay for an hour to confirm, but I spoze you could do it that way
739 2011-07-04 10:04:39 <spq> you need to be online to verify that the other one really sent the payment and that is valid
740 2011-07-04 10:05:39 <spq> you dont even require to be online to send a payment, you could also give the one who wants the money the transaction and he could later submit it

743 2011-07-04 10:06:23 <accel> why not?
744 2011-07-04 10:06:36 <lfm> accel it can be rather a lot
745 2011-07-04 10:06:37 <spq> but you need the whole blockchain until the transaction and some blocks after the transaction was embedded in a block to verify the transaction took place
746 2011-07-04 10:06:40 <accel> it only needs to sync every 10 minutes or so, no?
747 2011-07-04 10:06:52 <lfm> spq yup
748 2011-07-04 10:06:57 <accel> lfm: what is announced besides when someone discovers a new block?
749 2011-07-04 10:07:14 <epscy> i get the impression in some developing countries that currency is used as often as bartering
750 2011-07-04 10:07:38 <lfm> accel: every transaction is sent out to every node bewteen blocks also
751 2011-07-04 10:07:48 <epscy> i think it was genjix who said that in africa and india they use mobile phone top up cards as currency
752 2011-07-04 10:08:18 <epscy> so i see bitcoin as being one option of payment
753 2011-07-04 10:08:31 <accel> lfm: I thought the way transactions worked (I'm probably totally wrong, so correct my understanding)
754 2011-07-04 10:08:34 <lfm> epscy: yes, but their mobile phones tend to be a bit different from ours I think.
755 2011-07-04 10:08:37 <accel> is that you take a bunch of transactions, you create a hash of it
756 2011-07-04 10:08:52 <accel> then you embed this hash into the new block that is discovered
757 2011-07-04 10:08:53 <Joric> UukGoblin, check this out :) just made a qr code for myself http://twitpic.com/5l12rn
758 2011-07-04 10:09:13 <spq> accel: right
759 2011-07-04 10:09:23 <lfm> accel: yes and if the transactions do not get spread around BEFORE the block, how would they get included in the block?
760 2011-07-04 10:09:51 <accel> lfm: those get into the next block
761 2011-07-04 10:10:16 <accel> (I don't know if that's for certain; this is my mental model of how bitcoin works)
762 2011-07-04 10:10:25 <lfm> accel: ya but they are not part of a block till they are included in one
763 2011-07-04 10:11:53 <lfm> accel: so the txn go out to everyone right away. the blocks then come in to confirm the ones they have seen
764 2011-07-04 10:12:13 <UukGoblin> Joric, great ;-)
765 2011-07-04 10:14:08 <epscy> lfm: different in what way?, here in the uk we have mobile phone top cards

772 2011-07-04 10:15:25 <Joric> except BBC logo is not that ugly
773 2011-07-04 10:15:37 <lfm> epscy: ya, those cards are the same, the phones tend to be the very cheap voice only no data phones from what I have heard.
774 2011-07-04 10:16:07 <epscy> yeah i wasn't suggesting they use the phones as bitcoin clients
775 2011-07-04 10:16:12 <lfm> like cheaper that you can even find most places like Canada (where I am)
776 2011-07-04 10:16:53 <epscy> jsut commenting on the fact that using mobile phone top up cards as currency suggests there is a need that bitcoin could fulfil
777 2011-07-04 10:17:01 <lfm> epscy: ok, you were proposing a special purpose device then? for bitcoin only?
778 2011-07-04 10:17:31 <epscy> maybe UukGoblin is right and bitbills are the way to go, but i don't they lend themselves to small transactions very well
779 2011-07-04 10:17:36 <epscy> lfm: yeah
780 2011-07-04 10:17:56 <epscy> but obviously there are some technical issues that would need to be worked out

790 2011-07-04 10:19:23 <MacRohard> lfm, no it's because they can be sent electronically.. it's a means of remote paying

804 2011-07-04 10:21:37 <MacRohard> i expect sms is similarly priced in africa to the west.. if you're transferring say $10 or something then $0.14 isn't that much of a transaction fee to pay

814 2011-07-04 10:24:06 <MacRohard> when people say things like people are living on less than $1/day it just means that there's virtually no money used in day to day transactions.. more barter. It doesn't mean that if you had $100 you'd be rich
815 2011-07-04 10:24:18 <epscy> i am sure i heard about one dollar loans in rural india
816 2011-07-04 10:24:40 <lfm> MacRohard: yes yes and they grow their own food and dont pay rent or taxes

822 2011-07-04 10:28:27 <epscy> fair enough, i may be off base with this one then
823 2011-07-04 10:28:51 <MacRohard> more like they take out a micro-loan and buy a bus ticket to the nearest large city and then beg from tourists to repay it ;)
824 2011-07-04 10:29:19 <lfm> MacRohard: Um I dont think they give out those typical microloans for that tho
825 2011-07-04 10:29:30 <MacRohard> ever heard of fraud?
826 2011-07-04 10:29:51 <MacRohard> it's when you say you're doing something for one reason when actually you're doing it for another reason
827 2011-07-04 10:30:10 <lfm> are you say you will repay when you wont
828 2011-07-04 10:30:32 <MacRohard> i dunno.. some prolly repay some prolly don't *shrug*
829 2011-07-04 10:30:53 <lfm> they claim they get like a 95% repayment rate
830 2011-07-04 10:31:11 <MacRohard> maybe they have good loan enforcement officers ;)
831 2011-07-04 10:31:24 <lfm> note also they mostly give the micro loans to women
832 2011-07-04 10:31:37 <enquirer> no they won't use bitcoins
833 2011-07-04 10:31:40 <MacRohard> that's generally what pimps do
834 2011-07-04 10:31:42 <lfm> women are better with money
835 2011-07-04 10:31:55 <MacRohard> tell women they're in debt and then make them work in a brothel until the debt is payed
836 2011-07-04 10:32:47 <lfm> MacRohard: well that may work but I dont think the microloan people are doing that
837 2011-07-04 10:32:51 <enquirer> bitcoin brothel makes sense

962 2011-07-04 11:44:42 <erus`> i could set up an address pool and reuse them

975 2011-07-04 11:49:28 <phantomcircuit> they dont have a pool

977 2011-07-04 11:49:40 <erus`> when you get to thousands of users registering and leaving a day
978 2011-07-04 11:49:42 <jeremias> depends on the implementation
979 2011-07-04 11:49:53 <jeremias> a lousy coder can make even the most trivial thing slow
980 2011-07-04 11:50:04 <lfm> erus`: the wallet doesnt get slow with thousands of addresses in it. I have tested on testnet
981 2011-07-04 11:50:10 <erus`> well memory isnt infinite
982 2011-07-04 11:50:23 <erus`> so i would rather not keep creating addresses until it becomes a problem
983 2011-07-04 11:50:29 <jeremias> if you store bitcoin addresses in database table & use indexing, then it's highly improbable that you will ever run into scaling issues
984 2011-07-04 11:50:53 <phantomcircuit> erus`, so you expect to be millions of times more successful than mtgox?
985 2011-07-04 11:50:56 <phantomcircuit> uh huh
986 2011-07-04 11:51:00 <jeremias> and i guess the official implementation is good
987 2011-07-04 11:51:04 <phantomcircuit> we'll get right on that
988 2011-07-04 11:51:11 <phantomcircuit> the official implementation is shit
989 2011-07-04 11:51:14 <lfm> erus`: addresses are CHEAP. you can easily afford to produce as many as you will ever need and more and you wont notice the cost of storage or speed

1007 2011-07-04 11:57:16 <erus`> how big is an address + label?
1008 2011-07-04 11:57:43 <lfm> maybe 1 or two kb
1009 2011-07-04 11:58:37 <erus`> how long should a transaction take (with 1 conf) ?
1010 2011-07-04 11:58:42 <lfm> ie 0.0000001 $ or 0.0000002 $
1011 2011-07-04 11:59:02 <Joric> 20 bytes + label, actually
1012 2011-07-04 11:59:54 <lfm> erus nominally a block (confirmation) shows up every 10 min so on average a txn will be confirmed in 5 min but it is random and sometimes it takes an hour or more for the first confirm
1013 2011-07-04 12:00:34 <lfm> Joric: that is only the public key, there is also the private key
1014 2011-07-04 12:00:34 <btcrowan> Anyone know what's up with: http://bitcoin.sipa.be/ -- it looks like all the data from 2011 is missing
1015 2011-07-04 12:01:15 <Joric> lfm, yeah, it's the whole keypair i don't really know how much it weights

1018 2011-07-04 12:02:49 <joepie91> <erus`>so how do i make a new wallet?
1019 2011-07-04 12:02:56 <joepie91> I believe you can start it with a commandline argument
1020 2011-07-04 12:02:58 <joepie91> defining a data directory
1021 2011-07-04 12:03:07 <joepie91> I'm not sure if that goes for just the wallet or also things like the blockchain etc though
1022 2011-07-04 12:03:50 <Joric> blockchain too
1023 2011-07-04 12:04:17 <Joric> there's no separate wallet directory yet
1024 2011-07-04 12:04:17 <erus`> I'll just make a new address for each user then
1025 2011-07-04 12:04:26 <erus`> will make life easier

1106 2011-07-04 12:47:59 <lfm> it should not be a floating point type

1139 2011-07-04 12:51:59 <BlueMatt> erus`: base unit
1140 2011-07-04 12:52:33 <lfm> erus 1 satoshi is 0.00000001 BTC
1141 2011-07-04 12:52:36 <BlueMatt> lfm: yea, but no it doesnt get round off errors as it rounds everything to the 8 decimal places bitcoin supports and that is well within the size of a float

1197 2011-07-04 13:09:57 <Diablo-D3> okay so Im going about.... 378.
1198 2011-07-04 13:10:08 <b4epoche_> BlueMatt: it's that second part "find the private message button" that seems to be the problem (even when logged in). Maybe because I'm a "Brand new" user.
1199 2011-07-04 13:10:10 <Diablo-D3> it got very tiny little faster with hand chopping dead code out
1200 2011-07-04 13:10:54 <Diablo-D3> to get any more optimum, I'd have to draw fucking bits out
1201 2011-07-04 13:11:17 <Diablo-D3> like, little fucking graphs and shit
1202 2011-07-04 13:11:29 <BlueMatt> b4epoche_: I always see "Send this member a personal message." though I think users can turn it off for themselves if they want
1203 2011-07-04 13:11:29 <lfm> b4epoche_ ya, thats probably it. you are too new to write private messages
1204 2011-07-04 13:11:59 <BlueMatt> really, new users cant pm, thats shit
1205 2011-07-04 13:12:08 <Diablo-D3> either that, or start removing instructions and see which ones it doenst actually need

1209 2011-07-04 13:12:42 <Joric> BlueMatt, are you sure number of rounds should depend of cpu power? what if the wallet would be transferred on a pocket pc? keepass uses fixed 6000 rounds.

1211 2011-07-04 13:13:24 <lfm> b4epoche_ when I went to user udibr 's page I found the button to "Send this member a personal message."
1212 2011-07-04 13:13:33 <BlueMatt> Joric: it would still work on a pocket pc, it would just take a second or two, I mean .1 seconds on high end hardware would still only be something like 2-3 seconds on really slow hardware
1213 2011-07-04 13:14:19 <b4epoche_> so, with no pm on forums, does anyone know how to contact "udibr"?
1214 2011-07-04 13:14:34 <b4epoche_> lfm: yea, I don't see that: http://snapplr.com/xs9w
1215 2011-07-04 13:14:38 <erus`> can bitcoind handle concurrent requests?
1216 2011-07-04 13:14:40 <BlueMatt> <b4epoche_> BlueMatt: I can see that... <- why cant you pm if you can see that?
1217 2011-07-04 13:14:42 <lfm> b4epoche I found button to send him private message
1218 2011-07-04 13:14:54 <BlueMatt> oh cant...

1245 2011-07-04 13:27:21 <riush> is the wallet dump format (showwallet branch) fixed now, or might it still change?
1246 2011-07-04 13:27:28 <Joric> BlueMatt, did you notice wxGetPasswordFromUser doesnt pay attention to what was pressed - ok, cancel or close? =) i'd use wxTextEntryDialog(parent, message, caption, defaultValue,
1247 2011-07-04 13:27:29 <Joric> wxOK | wxCANCEL | wxTE_PASSWORD)
1248 2011-07-04 13:28:05 <BlueMatt> well if you hit cancel, it returns empty string, and it can just tell you to enter something next time
1249 2011-07-04 13:28:09 <BlueMatt> (like it does now)
1250 2011-07-04 13:28:50 <Joric> not nice!
1251 2011-07-04 13:29:26 <BlueMatt> meh, it works
1252 2011-07-04 13:31:10 <lfm> does it return empty string even if there IS a password entered?
1253 2011-07-04 13:31:19 <erus`> what if my password is "" ?
1254 2011-07-04 13:31:20 <BlueMatt> yes
1255 2011-07-04 13:31:27 <BlueMatt> erus`: then it tells you to fuck off
1256 2011-07-04 13:31:32 <erus`> lol
1257 2011-07-04 13:31:39 <lfm> erus you deserve what you get then

1259 2011-07-04 13:31:53 <erus`> nearly there :O
1260 2011-07-04 13:32:07 <BlueMatt> erus`: then it posts your wallet on the forum and informs people that you are a dumbass ;)
1261 2011-07-04 13:32:09 <Joric> lfm, this is not the point, pressing cancel you should expect cancel )
1262 2011-07-04 13:32:53 <erus`> jokes on them it was the stolen mtgox account
1263 2011-07-04 13:33:09 <lfm> Joric: ya, theoreticlly Id agree but I think to conform to "bitcoin sytle and practices guide" you would need to take BlueMatt's side
1264 2011-07-04 13:33:25 <BlueMatt> lfm: ???
1265 2011-07-04 13:33:46 <lfm> Im saying there are much worse things in htere to worry about
1266 2011-07-04 13:33:55 <Joric> lfm, it should just close the dialog, without nagging
1267 2011-07-04 13:34:10 <BlueMatt> actually, it checks size too late, let me got change that
1268 2011-07-04 13:34:32 <Joric> now it spawns additional dialog 'are you sure to encrypt your wallet'? in ALL cases
1269 2011-07-04 13:34:39 <BlueMatt> yep, thats wrong

1275 2011-07-04 13:44:41 <Joric> though i didn't try that with mybitcoin
1276 2011-07-04 13:45:50 <lfm> erus depends what you're doing. I think Luke-jr's pool will only mine with txn with a fee
1277 2011-07-04 13:46:11 <BlueMatt> Joric: well, Ill fix that, but wxTextEntryDialog becomes a pain as it needs parent...its not a big problem anyway, if you want to code it Ill push it, but its not worth the time

1300 2011-07-04 13:54:51 <lfm> isnt there localization for commas and decimal points?

1309 2011-07-04 13:57:40 <jtaylor> erus`: that does not seem very hard in this case, or is there no test runner in place?

1315 2011-07-04 14:00:22 <gavinandresen> lfm: yup. I did the simplest possible thing that can work, which is : decimal point is . And no commas.
1316 2011-07-04 14:00:22 Burgundy has joined
1317 2011-07-04 14:00:56 <lfm> ie ignore localizeation, might work I guess
1318 2011-07-04 14:01:22 <gavinandresen> lfm: to do it "right" means do all the localization stuff and then write new dialog boxes that parrot back the amount you're sending, just in case you have your locale setup wrong
1319 2011-07-04 14:01:38 <Joric> gavinandresen, you just removed thousands separators, that's it? how about further localization
1320 2011-07-04 14:01:44 <gavinandresen> lfm: ... and that's way too much work for too little gain.
1321 2011-07-04 14:01:46 <erus`> will bitcoind stop using so much cpu when it catches up with the block head?
1322 2011-07-04 14:01:54 <lfm> ya, Ive never actually tried it, just heard about it
1323 2011-07-04 14:02:33 <gavinandresen> Joric: knock yourself out, but the whole "enter how many bitcoins" UI is changing anyway.
1324 2011-07-04 14:02:46 <BlueMatt> gavinandresen: it is?
1325 2011-07-04 14:02:49 <BlueMatt> or do you mean qt?
1326 2011-07-04 14:02:54 <gavinandresen> BlueMatt: I mean qt
1327 2011-07-04 14:02:57 <BlueMatt> ah, ok
1328 2011-07-04 14:02:58 <erus`> ugh qt
1329 2011-07-04 14:03:05 <erus`> why you no like wx?
1330 2011-07-04 14:03:20 <gavinandresen> (and the whole "Send 11 millicoins" instead of "send 0.011 BTC")
1331 2011-07-04 14:03:21 <BlueMatt> because we have like one person even willing to touch it
1332 2011-07-04 14:03:25 <Joric> i'd love having the fee settings page in 0.4 along with wallet encryption
1333 2011-07-04 14:03:38 <BlueMatt> what fee settings page?
1334 2011-07-04 14:04:06 <gavinandresen> When we see lots of people working on, and progress on, the qt GUI and NO progress on the wx GUI, that's an easy decision.

1440 2011-07-04 14:59:15 <etneg> just trying to understand bitcoin transanctions
1441 2011-07-04 14:59:19 <etneg> so when a new transaction takes place, it is broadcast to the entire network and then anyone who wants can try to construct a block incorporating the new transactions? and whoever is first at generating a valid block and broadcasting it is rewarded with a certain number of new bitcoins?
1442 2011-07-04 14:59:45 <Joric> more specifically, http://blockexplorer.com/testnet/q/hashestowin
1443 2011-07-04 14:59:56 <Joric> more precisely, hashestowin / 2^32
1444 2011-07-04 15:00:00 <nanotube> etneg: yes

1454 2011-07-04 15:02:11 <nanotube> etneg: there are transaction fees, and block bounty, to reward the block creator.
1455 2011-07-04 15:02:22 <gavinandresen> BlueMatt: I think it is critical enough (and safe enough) that it should be in 0.3.24.

1469 2011-07-04 15:05:47 <nanotube> Joric: yes, a "share" is a difficulty-1 block.
1470 2011-07-04 15:06:05 <Joric> well, it's not 'average' actually it's the worst case :) average is probably 2^32/2
1471 2011-07-04 15:06:07 <nanotube> erus`: if the address doesn't pass checksum, it'll be rejected by your client. if it does pass checksum, you lose those bitcoins forever.

1568 2011-07-04 15:27:27 <Joric> what do you hate most, autotools or cmake?
1569 2011-07-04 15:27:58 <gmaxwell> lfm: Thats the wrong way of looking at it: 'enuf' security to prevent dictionary attacks completely would require seconds of delay for the user (because the attacker can use a faster hash engine). Few users would tolerate that, they'd just leave their wallet unlocked.
1570 2011-07-04 15:28:27 <Joric> i see the autotools push request is the most discussed hope it will be shut down

1574 2011-07-04 15:29:15 <gmaxwell> lfm: to instead it gets as much the users are likely to tolerate on whatever computers they have, clamped to a sane minimum.

1577 2011-07-04 15:30:21 <sipa> BlueMatt: do you intend to do more forced updates to newenc soon?
1578 2011-07-04 15:30:40 <BlueMatt> sipa: no, sorry
1579 2011-07-04 15:30:56 <sipa> no problem if you do, it's just a question
1580 2011-07-04 15:30:58 <BlueMatt> all Ive done today was just move some stuff in ui.cpp around and rebase onto master
1581 2011-07-04 15:31:03 <BlueMatt> no, I dont
1582 2011-07-04 15:31:09 <sipa> if you don't, i can rebase showwallet against it
1583 2011-07-04 15:31:34 <BlueMatt> no, unless someone else has bugs to report, I dont plan on touching it

1590 2011-07-04 15:38:16 <gribble> The operation succeeded.
1591 2011-07-04 15:38:46 <BlueMatt> sipa: whats the status of wallet export/import, or is that showwallet?
1592 2011-07-04 15:39:05 <sipa> yeah, name is very badly chosen
1593 2011-07-04 15:39:33 <BlueMatt> ok, but its pretty much good to go right?
1594 2011-07-04 15:39:56 <sipa> current branch survives my (shallow) testing
1595 2011-07-04 15:40:12 <BlueMatt> nice, ok
1596 2011-07-04 15:40:16 <sipa> BlueMatt: current newenc doesn't compile, btw
1597 2011-07-04 15:40:24 <BlueMatt> huh
1598 2011-07-04 15:40:26 <sipa> ui.cpp: In member function âvirtual void CMainFrame::OnMenuOptionsEncryptWallet(wxCommandEvent&)â:

1600 2011-07-04 15:40:52 <BlueMatt> no, I tested the changes...
1601 2011-07-04 15:41:06 <gmaxwell> BlueMatt: even with that .24 fix so that it doesn't screw up encrypted wallets, people will still downgrade to older versions. Perhaps the encrpytion should do something more to convince older versions to not screw up the file?

1608 2011-07-04 15:41:48 <erus`> i sent an email
1609 2011-07-04 15:41:48 <Joric> encryption should be reversible no doubt
1610 2011-07-04 15:42:09 <sipa> i think we need a feature array for wallets
1611 2011-07-04 15:42:29 <BlueMatt> gmaxwell: sadly there are very few return false's in LoadWallet...
1612 2011-07-04 15:42:29 <sipa> like the ext family for filesystems has
1613 2011-07-04 15:42:39 <gmaxwell> Er, reversible wasn't something that I was talking about. (and I don't know if it would be good)
1614 2011-07-04 15:42:43 <erus`> you need a "removeaccount <account>" command
1615 2011-07-04 15:42:46 <BlueMatt> sipa: I think thats overkill...
1616 2011-07-04 15:42:55 <sipa> maybe, but it's not that hard to implement
1617 2011-07-04 15:42:57 <sipa> "If you don't know this feature, don't touch the wallet"
1618 2011-07-04 15:43:07 <sipa> "If you don't know this feature, ignore it"
1619 2011-07-04 15:43:09 <Optimo> gdamned market manipulators ;p
1620 2011-07-04 15:43:12 <BlueMatt> well my pull req pretty much does that
1621 2011-07-04 15:43:15 <sipa> "If you don't know this feature, don't do transactions"
1622 2011-07-04 15:43:16 <gmaxwell> Joric: right now old versions of bitcoin will /corrupt/ encrypted wallets.
1623 2011-07-04 15:43:19 <BlueMatt> in a slightly indirect way, but less overkill
1624 2011-07-04 15:43:41 <Joric> gmaxwell, i probably noticed that first
1625 2011-07-04 15:43:53 <sipa> how can it corrupt?
1626 2011-07-04 15:43:54 <BlueMatt> or maybe crypter should try to load them...its not that hard, its just that old versions write an unencrypted privkey to wallet
1627 2011-07-04 15:44:02 <sipa> it can't touch ckey's
1628 2011-07-04 15:44:25 <BlueMatt> maybe crypter can notify users "Your wallet got f'd up, can I have your pass to fix it?"
1629 2011-07-04 15:44:27 <sipa> its pool keys refer to private keys that cannot be loaded. though
1630 2011-07-04 15:44:47 <sipa> Joric, gmaxwell: care to elaborate how it corrupts?
1631 2011-07-04 15:44:48 <erus`> when someone sends money to an address. how do clients know who owns the address? (how can one prove it owns it?)
1632 2011-07-04 15:44:48 <BlueMatt> sipa: and when old versions see that, they make a new, unencrypted, private key for vchDefaltKey
1633 2011-07-04 15:44:53 <BlueMatt> sipa: which makes crypter freak out
1634 2011-07-04 15:45:00 <gmaxwell> sipa: bluematt just did, it adds unencrypted keys.
1635 2011-07-04 15:45:11 <sipa> right
1636 2011-07-04 15:45:13 <Joric> sipa, pull request 352
1637 2011-07-04 15:45:29 <sipa> the old encrypted keys still exist, but there are unencrypted keys in addition to that
1638 2011-07-04 15:45:32 <BlueMatt> no, pull 378 is the relevant one here
1639 2011-07-04 15:45:38 <BlueMatt> sipa: yea
1640 2011-07-04 15:45:54 <BlueMatt> it doesnt really cause damage, but crypter (rightfully imo) refuses to load such wallets
1641 2011-07-04 15:47:05 <sipa> BlueMatt: how about adding an intentionally invalid key entry in the db?
1642 2011-07-04 15:47:12 <sipa> just an empty string or so
1643 2011-07-04 15:47:22 <sipa> which crypter code can check for and ignore
1644 2011-07-04 15:47:27 <BlueMatt> I dont think old bitcoin will stop if it sees that
1645 2011-07-04 15:47:53 <apr> mmm
1646 2011-07-04 15:48:01 <apr> what happens after pushpool has found a block / proof of work o.O?
1647 2011-07-04 15:48:06 <BlueMatt> oh, maybe it will

1649 2011-07-04 15:48:30 <apr> oh wait nm i see.
1650 2011-07-04 15:48:39 <gmaxwell> If that works, make the new version match the content, so the same thing can be used to break compatiblity in the future.
1651 2011-07-04 15:48:47 <sipa> BlueMatt: no, sorry, it won't
1652 2011-07-04 15:48:50 <BlueMatt> nope, nvm
1653 2011-07-04 15:49:10 <BlueMatt> there are way too few return false's in loadwallet
1654 2011-07-04 15:49:10 <gmaxwell> oh. hm. How about changing the file name?
1655 2011-07-04 15:49:54 <sipa> v0.3.21 does not have any 'return' in LoadWallet, except for succes at the end, and one for error from bdb
1656 2011-07-04 15:50:10 <BlueMatt> yea, that was kind of poor planning
1657 2011-07-04 15:50:13 <gmaxwell> (though its thats done, please add some compatiblity entry so it doesn't need to be done again)

1663 2011-07-04 15:52:30 <gmaxwell> Hm. Might it be better to just have a min_version field? avoiding the overkill of a bitmap but allowing some compatiblity. Otherwise every little change will break it.
1664 2011-07-04 15:53:30 <BlueMatt> you know what we might be able to do, make a setting that used to be an int into a string, or smth, that way it will freak out
1665 2011-07-04 15:53:43 <BlueMatt> fGenerateBitcoins is a prime target

1667 2011-07-04 15:54:09 <BlueMatt> gmaxwell: imo every little change *should* break it, we arent here to support old versions
1668 2011-07-04 15:54:31 <BlueMatt> if you have a real reason to use an old version, you know enough to downgrade, if you dont, then you shouldnt
1669 2011-07-04 15:55:02 <sipa> no min_version field means that every incompatible change should add a new unused field type
1670 2011-07-04 15:55:15 <gavinandresen> BlueMatt: installing/running against an old version has to do something sane; users 'accidently' downgrade all the time.
1671 2011-07-04 15:55:47 <BlueMatt> gavinandresen: absolutely, hence why I say just make it refuse to load a wallet which has types the old version doesnt know about

1674 2011-07-04 15:56:48 <BlueMatt> that may very well be the only reasonable option...
1675 2011-07-04 15:56:49 <sipa> it will cause old client to just create a new wallet
1676 2011-07-04 15:57:11 <gavinandresen> Yup, which is perfectly safe behavior.

1679 2011-07-04 15:57:27 <gmaxwell> BlueMatt: well, breaking it all the time fill frustrate troubleshooting and beta testing.
1680 2011-07-04 15:57:29 <BlueMatt> gavinandresen: safe, but not ideal...

1694 2011-07-04 15:59:34 <nanotube> sipa: that only happens if encryption is turned on right?
1695 2011-07-04 15:59:35 <lolcat> How to decrypt?
1696 2011-07-04 15:59:48 <nanotube> lolcat: probably some aes256 symmetric encryption scheme

1699 2011-07-04 16:00:11 <BlueMatt> what is also fine, would be crypter just saying "hey your wallet has a mix of keys, you probably ran an old version, please enter your pass to crypt the rest of the keys"
1700 2011-07-04 16:00:31 <lolcat> nanotube: i mean, do I have to enter a passphrase to decrypt it?

1708 2011-07-04 16:03:12 <nanotube> BlueMatt: yes, when running on a 'mixed' wallet, new version could just say "hey, i see some unencrypted keys in the wallet, probably because you ran with an old version. would you like me to encrypt those for you?
1709 2011-07-04 16:03:15 <nanotube> "
1710 2011-07-04 16:03:53 <BlueMatt> nanotube: well currently, the idea is that if you have a mixed wallet, something is wrong, and you need to figure out what, so it just say "Cant load wallet.dat" and exits
1711 2011-07-04 16:04:08 <BlueMatt> the problem is old clients will say "hey, I dont have this key" when trying to send...

1713 2011-07-04 16:04:42 <nanotube> well, maybe renaming the file is the simplest/safest solution, then...

1715 2011-07-04 16:04:59 <BlueMatt> well there is no damage done when old client says "no key, wtf"
1716 2011-07-04 16:05:02 <BlueMatt> afaik
1717 2011-07-04 16:05:14 <sipa> agree
1718 2011-07-04 16:05:18 mark__ has joined
1719 2011-07-04 16:05:23 <jrmithdobbs> or even better
1720 2011-07-04 16:05:47 <jrmithdobbs> make wallet.dat only track the actual txns and use crypter as an opportunity to split the key storage off completely from the wallet?
1721 2011-07-04 16:06:04 <gmaxwell> still confusing as heckâ you downgrade and then it doesn't work right.
1722 2011-07-04 16:06:32 <gmaxwell> jrmithdobbs++ there, but ugh, more delays. It would make backups a lot nicer.
1723 2011-07-04 16:06:33 <nanotube> jrmithdobbs: yea splitting transaction cache, private key storage, and public key storage would be good i think
1724 2011-07-04 16:06:33 <jrmithdobbs> downgrading with an encrypted wallet is just not going to work anyways
1725 2011-07-04 16:06:48 <nanotube> jrmithdobbs: not least because we could run a 'public only' node, which has no capability to create transactions
1726 2011-07-04 16:07:02 <gmaxwell> not work is fineâ looking like it works but failing strangely is less fine.
1727 2011-07-04 16:07:05 <nanotube> thereby enabling an easy airgap-separation for the private key store
1728 2011-07-04 16:07:09 <jrmithdobbs> nanotube: well, that requires quite a bit more work
1729 2011-07-04 16:07:18 <jrmithdobbs> but ya it makes it possible down the line
1730 2011-07-04 16:07:21 <nanotube> jrmithdobbs: yes, but first step, separate storage :)
1731 2011-07-04 16:08:29 <jrmithdobbs> gmaxwell: oh, i see some of your proposals/objections now, didn't read the whole conversation before commenting
1732 2011-07-04 16:08:32 <jrmithdobbs> also
1733 2011-07-04 16:08:45 <jrmithdobbs> "it will break wallet backup scripts" is a pretty bad reason not to rename it or split it to sep storage
1734 2011-07-04 16:09:06 <jrmithdobbs> all current wallet backup scripts are so dangerous that breaking them should be a goal, not something to avoid, once dumpwallet/etc are in
1735 2011-07-04 16:09:09 <gmaxwell> eh, its a reason to not do it all the time.
1736 2011-07-04 16:09:23 <mark__> Does anyone know if bitcoin uses a locking db/dbm (for transactions)...eg, when doing something like: Customer transfers coins to another customer: move "userid1" "userid2" <amount>

1738 2011-07-04 16:09:54 <sipa> not sure i like splitting off storage of transactions and keys right now
1739 2011-07-04 16:09:58 <jrmithdobbs> gmaxwell: because once sipa's showwallet is in you shouldn't be backing up that way at all and backups wont rely on file names/location

1741 2011-07-04 16:10:11 <gmaxwell> jrmithdobbs: hm. because of the update race.. right.. I suppose.
1742 2011-07-04 16:10:36 <jrmithdobbs> i mean i'm not saying change filenames every release or something dumb ;p
1743 2011-07-04 16:10:40 <sipa> somewhere in the future, different backends for storing transactions and keys are definitely necessary
1744 2011-07-04 16:11:00 <sipa> but current wallet.dat is a collection of all private data, and if you keep wallet.dat together, it remains always consistent
1745 2011-07-04 16:11:18 <sipa> and i prefer keeping it that way
1746 2011-07-04 16:11:32 <lolcat> sipa: Thank you for clearing that up for me :)
1747 2011-07-04 16:11:35 <sipa> if there is a way for exporting/importing/inspecting its contents
1748 2011-07-04 16:11:40 <nanotube> mark__: it uses berkeleydb... i /presume/ it does... but you have to look at the code to be sure.

1752 2011-07-04 16:12:24 <graingert> cool
1753 2011-07-04 16:12:29 <mark__> berkeleydb does do locking... but you have to set it. I am pretty sure they do... will check -thanks!

1758 2011-07-04 16:14:54 <jrmithdobbs> sipa: but txn history isn't really private data
1759 2011-07-04 16:14:56 <sipa> also, since CWallet the only place where the filename is defined is init.cpp, so it should be pretty easy to use another name
1760 2011-07-04 16:15:02 <sipa> jrmithdobbs: s/private/personal

1762 2011-07-04 16:16:21 <jrmithdobbs> sipa: well, at the least the 'personal' data needs to run in it's own bdb env at some point so that txn logs (bdb txns, not btc txns) can actually be usefully backed up imho
1763 2011-07-04 16:16:44 <sipa> there i definitely agree
1764 2011-07-04 16:16:56 <gmaxwell> jrmithdobbs: you made the counter argument yourselfâ the export stuff.
1765 2011-07-04 16:17:03 <sipa> it should be possible to specify a wallet file yourself, on a separate location
1766 2011-07-04 16:17:41 <jrmithdobbs> gmaxwell: ya but there's still worst case recovery scenarios where usable, and separate, bdb txn logs could be useful
1767 2011-07-04 16:18:17 <jrmithdobbs> gmaxwell: and doing that is pretty much a req for multiple wallet support anyways
1768 2011-07-04 16:18:32 <sipa> multiple wallets if useful
1769 2011-07-04 16:18:38 <Joric> how to view someone's job profile on github? can't find it
1770 2011-07-04 16:19:10 <sipa> but making the wallet.dat file visible to the user is far more important
1771 2011-07-04 16:19:33 <sipa> if people need to select a wallet to open, they can link their wallet to that file mentally

1773 2011-07-04 16:20:06 <sipa> now the client effectively makes them wonder "how the hell does my computer know which coins belong to me"
1774 2011-07-04 16:20:24 <Herodes> it's a good point imo.
1775 2011-07-04 16:21:00 <gmaxwell> yea, alsoâ people sometimes screw themselves trying to swap files in order check backups, access secondary wallets, etc.
1776 2011-07-04 16:21:28 <Herodes> yes, for mass adoption the client must be idiot proof.
1777 2011-07-04 16:21:31 <Herodes> as much as possible.
1778 2011-07-04 16:22:02 <sipa> if you want it idiot proof, it would need a cloud-based storage/backup mechanism
1779 2011-07-04 16:22:07 <gmaxwell> Herodes: To some extent. I expect idiotproofness will mostly come from things like webwallets, which can be much more idiotpoof.
1780 2011-07-04 16:22:10 <jrmithdobbs> sipa: i think it should be a goal to actually hide the actual storage format from the users
1781 2011-07-04 16:22:11 <sipa> people cannot be trusted with their own money in a file
1782 2011-07-04 16:22:38 <jrmithdobbs> sipa: let them import/export via showwallet in the gui (at some point) so that the "files" they import are actually the semi-portable dumps instead of the actual storage
1783 2011-07-04 16:22:40 <Herodes> yes, but then again we have centralized solutions.
1784 2011-07-04 16:22:49 <jrmithdobbs> (I know i'm contradicting myself all over the place here, thanks ;p)
1785 2011-07-04 16:22:55 <Herodes> If we want to go with the decentralized idea, that's what we should aim for.
1786 2011-07-04 16:22:55 <sipa> jrmithdobbs: that's another and possible better option indeed

1791 2011-07-04 16:24:14 <Joric> as a pro idiot i didn't know each address is a separate keypair it thought it's just private key + nonce didn't expect i'll lose funds using the old backup
1792 2011-07-04 16:24:46 <sipa> some may be lowlevel and have the ability to micromanage wallets, keypairs, transactions
1793 2011-07-04 16:24:59 <sipa> some may be centralized, cloud-based, interacting with a e-wallet
1794 2011-07-04 16:25:59 <Herodes> I have an idea, don't know what you people think of it. But alas it's probably just usable for computer saavy people. If someone invented a client/server system where you run the bitcoin client on your home system that's connected to the net, and then you don't have to have the block-chain on say your android phone to make a purchase, because the android app would just connect to the home machine of the user to check. Could somethin
1795 2011-07-04 16:25:59 <Herodes> g like that work? Also web-solution or other centralized solutions over mobile network is possible, but if tech saavy users could just run a server at home, we'd have thosands of servers running, instead of a few centralized servers that easy to take down. Just something I tought of, what do you think of such a system?
1796 2011-07-04 16:26:01 <nanotube> Joric: hrm, well that's described in the 'securing your wallet' wiki page. that said, you're not the only one to lose coins due to old backup.

1871 2011-07-04 17:17:13 <justmoon> b4epoche, an entirely custom block chain? in a custom chain you make the rules, so the limit would be whatever practical hardware limitations your system has
1872 2011-07-04 17:17:14 <b4epoche_> lying in bed last night I got to thinking about an IPCoin (IP = intellectual property)
1873 2011-07-04 17:17:37 <justmoon> b4epoche, for something like that you'd only include a hash in the block chain, not the whole data

1877 2011-07-04 17:18:37 <justmoon> you only need a block chain for proof of time

1885 2011-07-04 17:19:58 <coderrr> or liek some else suggested, posting the hash to a mailing list
1886 2011-07-04 17:20:06 <coderrr> thast pretty much proof enuf of a timestamp

1893 2011-07-04 17:21:32 <coderrr> yea, im just curious if anyone has acutally used hashes to prove that in court
1894 2011-07-04 17:22:04 <justmoon> I don't think it's that simple in practice, you can always claim that there is some obscure distinction that makes your idea still novel
1895 2011-07-04 17:22:17 <b4epoche_> you gotta think if DNA testing is admissible then "hash testing' would be

1901 2011-07-04 17:23:26 <justmoon> you'd need an expert explaining why it's secure, but there is nothing legally wrong with any line of evidence as long as it's reliable
1902 2011-07-04 17:23:43 <b4epoche_> but I'm wondering about a system like this since it costs so damn much to file a patent
1903 2011-07-04 17:23:59 <b4epoche_> although I guess the (US) patent system is getting an overhaul
1904 2011-07-04 17:24:25 <justmoon> patents are expensive because it's expensive to pretend to do the impossible
1905 2011-07-04 17:24:40 <justmoon> the only way you can appear to do the impossible is to bury the truth in layers of complexity
1906 2011-07-04 17:24:52 <b4epoche_> which requires lawyers
1907 2011-07-04 17:25:06 <justmoon> so whenever the government tries to legislate something that is logically impossible you end up with some legal behemoth system
1908 2011-07-04 17:25:26 <justmoon> similar thing happens with software that tries to do something impossible too, btw
1909 2011-07-04 17:25:50 <justmoon> it gets more and more complex until nobody knows anymore if it actually ultimately does what it was supposed to do :)

1921 2011-07-04 17:30:57 <dbasch> Hal Varian is an idiot if he doesn't see the obvious problems
1922 2011-07-04 17:31:09 <b4epoche_> Google has a chief economist?
1923 2011-07-04 17:31:09 <justmoon> hey I'm not saying I agree with him
1924 2011-07-04 17:31:14 erus` has joined
1925 2011-07-04 17:31:16 <nanotube> justmoon: ouch, my respect for hal varian just dropped a little.
1926 2011-07-04 17:31:18 <egecko> he's got tons of his fiat currency, he doesnt give a crap
1927 2011-07-04 17:31:30 <justmoon> b4epoche, google hal varian, he made a video explanation of the adsense auction system
1928 2011-07-04 17:31:37 <dbasch> for example, he's never tried to send $ from USA to Argentina
1929 2011-07-04 17:31:48 <b4epoche_> honestly, I can kinda see what he's (probably) saying
1930 2011-07-04 17:31:53 <justmoon> nanotube, his field is microeconomics, give him a break ;)
1931 2011-07-04 17:31:57 <dbasch> where you lose 10% and several days of time
1932 2011-07-04 17:32:27 <b4epoche_> for the 'average' person the current currency system really isn't a problem
1933 2011-07-04 17:32:58 <justmoon> dbasch, can you actually do that more cheaply with bitcoins already? or are you saying that one day bitcoin will make it more cheaply?
1934 2011-07-04 17:33:12 <b4epoche_> but I suspect that will slowly change...
1935 2011-07-04 17:33:16 <dbasch> justmoon: I'm saying that the problem is there, and I know lots of people who suffer it
1936 2011-07-04 17:33:29 <dbasch> bitcoin addresses exactly that issue
1937 2011-07-04 17:33:39 <b4epoche_> I see bitcoin as a solution to a growing problem

1939 2011-07-04 17:33:59 <b4epoche_> people see the problem coming, and a solution will be necessary
1940 2011-07-04 17:34:00 <dbasch> the Argentinian government gets in the way of international money transfers
1941 2011-07-04 17:34:05 <justmoon> b4epoche, agreed - though we might get blamed for the very problems in the existing system
1942 2011-07-04 17:34:14 <justmoon> depending on how big bitcoin is by then
1943 2011-07-04 17:34:18 erus` has quit (Remote host closed the connection)
1944 2011-07-04 17:34:38 <dbasch> if I want to send $500 to my mother, she has to physically go to a bank and justify where the money comes from
1945 2011-07-04 17:34:45 <dbasch> do paperwork
1946 2011-07-04 17:34:49 <jeremias> i have always wondered why downloading the block chain is so slow
1947 2011-07-04 17:34:52 <dbasch> and lose at least $50
1948 2011-07-04 17:34:52 <b4epoche_> no, bitcoin won't get blamed but it might not be the solution that wins

1957 2011-07-04 17:35:38 <justmoon> dbasch, let's be realistic though, once bitcoin becomes more mainstream, maybe exchanges will be just as bureaucratic, don't you think?
1958 2011-07-04 17:36:01 <nanotube> justmoon: yes, and as a microeconomist, i expected him to be smarter than a macroeconomist :)
1959 2011-07-04 17:36:03 <sivu> hmm... if i use testnet-in-a-box and generate blocks to it, the block becomes orphan as soon as another block is generated
1960 2011-07-04 17:36:04 <dbasch> justmoon: well, if bitcoin works as intented why do you care about exchanges?

1973 2011-07-04 17:37:53 <dbasch> that's just an incredibly myopic statement

2128 2011-07-04 18:18:51 <JackStorm> BitcoinForNewegg, and to have it autostart, just copy it to /etc/init.d ; and if it's called launcher.sh run "update-rc.d launcher.sh defaults" for it to auto start with the system
2129 2011-07-04 18:19:18 <BitcoinForNewegg> hmm, small problem
2130 2011-07-04 18:19:20 <jtaylor> init.d is so 1980 ^^

2135 2011-07-04 18:20:01 <jtaylor> you could also just use xdg autostart
2136 2011-07-04 18:20:09 <jtaylor> and systemd is nicer than upstart :P
2137 2011-07-04 18:20:51 <BitcoinForNewegg> do u knwo how to edit a .squashfs?
2138 2011-07-04 18:21:46 <dsockwell> there are livecd cookers for debian
2139 2011-07-04 18:21:46 <BitcoinForNewegg> or should I boot it as a persistant live cd and edit it there?
2140 2011-07-04 18:21:51 <dsockwell> or you could, you know, install
2141 2011-07-04 18:21:52 <dsockwell> the os
2142 2011-07-04 18:22:04 <jtaylor> maybe there is no harddisk?
2143 2011-07-04 18:22:14 <jtaylor> a persistent live cd should be easier
2144 2011-07-04 18:22:14 <BitcoinForNewegg> no HDD, just a flash drive
2145 2011-07-04 18:22:22 <jtaylor> or live usb
2146 2011-07-04 18:22:29 <dsockwell> you'll kill a flash drive with a real bitcoin installation
2147 2011-07-04 18:22:37 <dsockwell> but running a miner should be fine

2151 2011-07-04 18:23:05 <BitcoinForNewegg> a full miner would definatly kill something
2152 2011-07-04 18:23:09 <jtaylor> you could load most into a ram tmpfs
2153 2011-07-04 18:23:10 <dsockwell> no
2154 2011-07-04 18:23:20 <dsockwell> actually yeah that's how i do it
2155 2011-07-04 18:23:29 <dsockwell> you just need 2 gigabytes to bootstrap the thing
2156 2011-07-04 18:23:45 <dsockwell> wait i'm talking about bitcoind again and not poclminer
2157 2011-07-04 18:23:51 <dsockwell> or whatever it's called

2171 2011-07-04 18:33:27 <JackStorm> (that way the miner will have access to the xsession as the user logged in, and will run)

2228 2011-07-04 19:14:08 <justmoon> that causes the miner to stop for a second when it found a block
2229 2011-07-04 19:14:12 <justmoon> seems reasonable?

2233 2011-07-04 19:15:07 <luke-jr> why should it?
2234 2011-07-04 19:15:23 <BlueMatt> to let everything figure it all out with a new block
2235 2011-07-04 19:15:26 <justmoon> to give the block a chance to get published

2245 2011-07-04 19:18:17 <justmoon> luke-jr, the miner is separate process iirc, if it loops right back into mining it'll get a bogus getwork because the client's state hasn't updated
2246 2011-07-04 19:18:26 <BlueMatt> luke-jr: because it might take some cputime to loop over txes, refresh ui, etc, etc
2247 2011-07-04 19:18:31 <BlueMatt> and to send it out over the net

2265 2011-07-04 19:21:59 <luke-jr> most it seems
2266 2011-07-04 19:22:05 <BlueMatt> wow, thats shitty
2267 2011-07-04 19:22:18 <luke-jr> or at least, the getwork client that monitors my uptime :P
2268 2011-07-04 19:22:30 <BlueMatt> well thats your fault
2269 2011-07-04 19:22:33 <luke-jr> not really
2270 2011-07-04 19:23:00 <justmoon> maybe the delay should be moved from CheckWork to BitcoinMiner?
2271 2011-07-04 19:23:00 <BlueMatt> yea really
2272 2011-07-04 19:23:05 <wasabi2> I'm curious about this approach to nonce saturation, by updating the time. What benefit does that actually give?
2273 2011-07-04 19:23:12 <wasabi2> That wouldn't be given by just getting more work.
2274 2011-07-04 19:23:13 <justmoon> CheckWork is used by the rpc and the delay makes a lot less sense in that context
2275 2011-07-04 19:23:24 <luke-jr> justmoon: I was thinking more of a bool
2276 2011-07-04 19:23:29 <BlueMatt> justmoon: no, because no one uses BitcoinMiner, but CheckWork is used by everyone
2277 2011-07-04 19:23:43 <luke-jr> when you get/find a block, it sets fReadyToMine to false
2278 2011-07-04 19:23:44 <justmoon> well yeah, that's why I'm suggesting it
2279 2011-07-04 19:23:47 <luke-jr> until it's ready
2280 2011-07-04 19:23:50 <BlueMatt> and you need it whenever you get a new block, now whenever you are cpu mining
2281 2011-07-04 19:23:54 <justmoon> do you need the delay when you use an external miner?

2285 2011-07-04 19:24:57 <BlueMatt> its not about when bitcoin finds a new block from cpumining, its about when it finds a new block itself
2286 2011-07-04 19:25:14 <justmoon> well there is network delay anyway because the miner has to make another call to request more work, no?
2287 2011-07-04 19:25:22 <b4epoche_> wow, exchange rate taking another dump
2288 2011-07-04 19:25:26 <skEwb> i'm having an issue i run bitcoind in daemon mode and i look at nestat and it listens on 8332 and 8333, however when phoenix miner tries to connect it gets a connection rejected

2374 2011-07-04 19:52:17 <CIA-103> bitcoin: the leak occurs when a thread terminates, and the original code doesn't do that
2375 2011-07-04 19:52:17 <CIA-103> bitcoin: except when it's shutting down. But the hub mode patches and the RPC patches do
2376 2011-07-04 19:52:17 <CIA-103> bitcoin: use dynamic threads. So this fix is needed to prevent address space exhaustion

2432 2011-07-04 19:59:28 <luke-jr> BlueMatt: that was a commit on the original client

2434 2011-07-04 19:59:41 <luke-jr> also, you forgot Diablo miner, Intersango, etc
2435 2011-07-04 19:59:45 <BlueMatt> no, that was a commit based on the original client to your repo, meaning it has a target audience of 1
2436 2011-07-04 20:00:39 <BlueMatt> look, Im just saying, unless you have people using your client who care about every commit, take it out of here
2437 2011-07-04 20:00:52 <BlueMatt> as it is only used by one person, and noone else needs to know about it

2447 2011-07-04 20:13:15 <BlueMatt> midnightmagic: I know Ive seen atleast one "we should have a strategy to switch hashes" on github before, but its another one of those topics that many noobs look at bitcoin and come up with...
2448 2011-07-04 20:13:26 <BlueMatt> so it comes up quite often on here
2449 2011-07-04 20:13:31 <BlueMatt> like once a month or so
2450 2011-07-04 20:14:15 <BlueMatt> its a valid point, its just not something that we strictly have to do now
2451 2011-07-04 20:14:30 <BlueMatt> no hash function ever goes from unbroken to 100% broken overnight
2452 2011-07-04 20:14:35 <BlueMatt> so we will have time
2453 2011-07-04 20:14:45 <BlueMatt> plus if it becomes urgent, we can switch hashes pretty damn quick
2454 2011-07-04 20:14:56 <BlueMatt> rolling out a new release takes maybe a couple days
2455 2011-07-04 20:15:31 <zamgo> rolling out, meaning to 51% of network?
2456 2011-07-04 20:16:00 <BlueMatt> no pushing to people
2457 2011-07-04 20:16:06 <BlueMatt> 51% doesnt matter in this case

2460 2011-07-04 20:16:19 <BlueMatt> just reasonable so that you can connect to new nodes
2461 2011-07-04 20:16:25 <BlueMatt> and with dnsseeds that becomes easier
2462 2011-07-04 20:16:43 <BlueMatt> in the conf file, I can just say "at least version 0.X to be in dns"
2463 2011-07-04 20:16:46 mosimo has joined
2464 2011-07-04 20:17:01 <BlueMatt> which Ill probably do for 0.3.24, as it fixes sendlimits again
2465 2011-07-04 20:17:11 <luke-jr> erm
2466 2011-07-04 20:17:17 <luke-jr> switching hashes requires at least 51% still
2467 2011-07-04 20:17:42 <BlueMatt> no, if you switch you will just make a fork, that means new blocks after the switch will eventually become invalid
2468 2011-07-04 20:17:55 <BlueMatt> so miners who do switch need to be able to find each other
2469 2011-07-04 20:17:57 <BlueMatt> as do clients
2470 2011-07-04 20:18:02 <luke-jr> or people will reject your switch because it reverses transactions
2471 2011-07-04 20:18:08 <BlueMatt> but 51% is irrelevant as everything on the old hash is bad
2472 2011-07-04 20:18:14 <BlueMatt> no it doesnt
2473 2011-07-04 20:18:20 <luke-jr> if everything on the old hash is bad, so is the history
2474 2011-07-04 20:18:27 <BlueMatt> people will reject your switch...wait WHAT?
2475 2011-07-04 20:18:47 <kinlo> how can I find the blocknumber of an orphan block from the client? listtransactions does not tell me thsi
2476 2011-07-04 20:18:52 <BlueMatt> you can easily do it w/o reversing/harming history
2477 2011-07-04 20:19:12 <BlueMatt> 10 huge blocks at the beginning of the new hash and you have your whole history again

2486 2011-07-04 20:20:09 <luke-jr> you can't re-sign the history

2489 2011-07-04 20:20:27 <BlueMatt> happens all the time with blockchain reorg
2490 2011-07-04 20:20:39 <luke-jr> blockchain reorg doesn't change the hash
2491 2011-07-04 20:20:41 <BlueMatt> no, but you can say "these are the actually vaid txes with the old hash"
2492 2011-07-04 20:20:52 <luke-jr> and everyone just trusts you?
2493 2011-07-04 20:20:52 <BlueMatt> other than that all old-hash txes are invalid
2494 2011-07-04 20:20:54 dissipate has quit (Remote host closed the connection)
2495 2011-07-04 20:21:14 <BlueMatt> ok, fine, its not ideal, and how the fuck do you propose to fix bitcoin is sha256 gets broken?
2496 2011-07-04 20:21:39 <luke-jr> it's basically impossible afaik
2497 2011-07-04 20:21:47 <BlueMatt> but pretty much everyone would trust a combination of gavin, jgarzk, sipa, etc, etc
2498 2011-07-04 20:21:54 <BlueMatt> then that is the way it would be done
2499 2011-07-04 20:22:03 <BlueMatt> its not ideal, but its open and the best way
2500 2011-07-04 20:22:15 Beccara has joined
2501 2011-07-04 20:22:21 <midnightmagic> BlueMatt: Have any of the devs heard anything interesting at all regarding whatever the hell mrb_ is talking about?
2502 2011-07-04 20:22:22 <jgarzik> luke-jr: "switching hashes requires at least 51% still" <<--- no the clients still decide which blocks to relay, or not. If majority of clients switch to LukeJrHash, but miners fail to follow, the network simply becomes partitioned.
2503 2011-07-04 20:22:40 <BlueMatt> midnightmagic: I havent
2504 2011-07-04 20:22:43 <jgarzik> a crazy miner with 90% hash power can still self-select themselves away from the network
2505 2011-07-04 20:22:45 <luke-jr> "everyone in the world would trust a combination of 5-10 random software developers"
2506 2011-07-04 20:23:00 <BlueMatt> a majority would
2507 2011-07-04 20:23:01 <luke-jr> jgarzik: I meant 51% of clients

2510 2011-07-04 20:23:20 <BlueMatt> a majority of people who have been trusting those devs for quite some time
2511 2011-07-04 20:24:01 nus has joined
2512 2011-07-04 20:24:01 <luke-jr> BlueMatt: or trusting the fact that many more people besides them have audited the code to varying degrees
2513 2011-07-04 20:24:01 <BlueMatt> Me and sipa could put a virus in the next version that steals your coins and gives them to us, but people trust that we wont
2514 2011-07-04 20:24:34 <BlueMatt> yea, some people build themselves, but such a huge majority dont, that the minority who do dont really matter
2515 2011-07-04 20:24:49 <BlueMatt> great, everyone else moves to a new hash and system, and you sit in a corner playing with lukejrcoin
2516 2011-07-04 20:24:51 <BlueMatt> have fun
2517 2011-07-04 20:25:35 <luke-jr> BlueMatt: your idea *might* be possible, if the first version also verified the new block chain against all the old blocks stored on your own computer
2518 2011-07-04 20:25:43 <luke-jr> ie, compared the content, not just the SHA256
2519 2011-07-04 20:25:53 <BlueMatt> you can absolutely do that
2520 2011-07-04 20:26:10 <luke-jr> then you have every Bitcoin 1.0 user verifying the block chain start for 2.0
2521 2011-07-04 20:26:13 <BlueMatt> problem is many people could be compromised by then
2522 2011-07-04 20:26:30 <BlueMatt> but whatever, you get the point
2523 2011-07-04 20:26:33 <jgarzik> My fun idea for proof-of-work algo: a miner selects a nonce, and uses that as a seed to (a) fill 16MB with random data, and (b) select the order in which a set of hash algos (whirlpool, sha256, skein, and on and on) is executed on that data. block hash is the end result.
2524 2011-07-04 20:26:33 <luke-jr> afaik you can't re-upload blocks once the client gets it
2525 2011-07-04 20:26:36 <BlueMatt> and Im done discussing
2526 2011-07-04 20:27:07 <BlueMatt> yea you can, reorg
2527 2011-07-04 20:27:13 <luke-jr> jgarzik: don't forget transactions use SHA256 too
2528 2011-07-04 20:27:35 <luke-jr> BlueMatt: chain reorgs don't delete the old blocks afaik
2529 2011-07-04 20:28:15 <BlueMatt> thats right in mem, but Im not sure about on disk
2530 2011-07-04 20:28:15 <midnightmagic> BlueMatt: I've updated my request on github; the implication from Gavin is that he hasn't heard anything substantive either. The potential for an order-of-magnitude differential between mining capacity based on an algorithm is troublesome to someone like myself who has invested relatively heavily in mining equipment.
2531 2011-07-04 20:28:19 <jgarzik> luke-jr: chain reorgs orphan blocks, and for new clients they are never seen. so, deleted for some, not for others.
2532 2011-07-04 20:28:21 <BlueMatt> I dont know at all about on-disk
2533 2011-07-04 20:28:48 <luke-jr> jgarzik: right, so everyone who had Bitcoin 1.0 before the compromise, can verify it
2534 2011-07-04 20:28:53 <BlueMatt> midnightmagic: well we will notice if he does do something major ;)
2535 2011-07-04 20:29:10 <luke-jr> actually, crap. they'd still need to trust the "last 1.0" block hash
2536 2011-07-04 20:29:23 <luke-jr> actually, the whole 1.0 chain of hashes
2537 2011-07-04 20:29:24 <BlueMatt> anyway, Im done discussing this, everyone here knows the implications and what would need to be done
2538 2011-07-04 20:29:25 <midnightmagic> god-damned mrb_ anyway.. :(
2539 2011-07-04 20:29:41 <jgarzik> luke-jr: if you want to verify old data, you have to use old [possibly compromised] hash algo, yes
2540 2011-07-04 20:29:52 <BlueMatt> midnightmagic: nothing we can do about it
2541 2011-07-04 20:30:25 <BlueMatt> midnightmagic: and we wont switch hash algos if someone has found a way to double or triple their hash speed, not worth it
2542 2011-07-04 20:30:39 <midnightmagic> BlueMatt: Well, the discussion here is impromtu and informal. I was hoping for codification and/or plan. If devs aren't ready to do that, fine also. But mrb_ isn't just any old douchebag..

2545 2011-07-04 20:31:14 <BlueMatt> no, noone is going to spend their time doing a formal plan for this
2546 2011-07-04 20:31:16 <luke-jr> midnightmagic: it's just normal development of mining
2547 2011-07-04 20:31:38 <midnightmagic> BlueMatt: No, and I wouldn't expect you to, but that sort of optimization is often a precursor to further optims, and eventually a break. If it's happening now, for real, that someone can use preimage to speed up hashing, it is a sign the hash isn't as secure as people thought it was.
2548 2011-07-04 20:31:47 <midnightmagic> luke-jr: That's completely different.

2553 2011-07-04 20:32:55 <midnightmagic> BlueMatt: There will be no indication; there's no way to measure it.
2554 2011-07-04 20:33:06 <justmoon> midnightmagic, what are you guys talking about - does somebody claim to have a shortcut on sha256?!
2555 2011-07-04 20:33:07 <jgarzik> midnightmagic: I would be surprised if he could speed up the first, as well as second, sha256. since we do double-sha256, call that strength 2, maybe he can reduce it to strength 1.5, but 1.0 seems unlikely.
2556 2011-07-04 20:33:12 <jgarzik> < 1.0 seems more unlikely
2557 2011-07-04 20:33:29 <jgarzik> but all crypto is time-based. it will eventually be broken
2558 2011-07-04 20:33:30 <midnightmagic> justmoon: Yes, ~2x speedup on 5970 putting it to "1GH/s+"
2559 2011-07-04 20:33:30 <BlueMatt> even 1.99 seems unlikely
2560 2011-07-04 20:33:35 <midnightmagic> justmoon: Just a claim right now.
2561 2011-07-04 20:33:42 <midnightmagic> jgarzik: yes, my point exactly.

2569 2011-07-04 20:42:43 <midnightmagic> jgarzik: I agree re: time-based, except there do exist reduced-round meet-in-the-middle attacks against sha-2 right now, which mean its preimage resistance is in question. 2 of the 5 finalists, according to Gligoroski in "Narrow-pipe SHA-3 candidates differ significantly from ideal random functions defined over big domains" are not random, which means SHA-3 might not be an upgrade path after the winner is chosen by NIST.

2575 2011-07-04 20:43:53 <BlueMatt> 9.10 doesnt work as its not quite old enough, but 9.04 isnt in the repos anymore so vmbuilder doesnt work
2576 2011-07-04 20:44:01 <BlueMatt> and gitian doesnt work outside of ubuntu atm
2577 2011-07-04 20:44:24 <BlueMatt> so its either hack up gitian to work on debian or other distro, or screw over old-distro users which I dont want to do
2578 2011-07-04 20:45:16 <BlueMatt> but that might be more of an issue for a later release, as it might take some time to do

2583 2011-07-04 20:46:00 <jgarzik> BlueMatt: and invite the community to start building distro-specific builds and packages
2584 2011-07-04 20:46:05 <BlueMatt> until we can tell people to install wx-2.8 or qt to build, we cant really do that
2585 2011-07-04 20:46:23 <jgarzik> BlueMatt: we can do that right now. nothing stopping us.

2589 2011-07-04 20:46:42 <jgarzik> BlueMatt: "build <foo> dependency, version <bar>" is a normal part of build instructions

2591 2011-07-04 20:46:57 <jgarzik> BlueMatt: you gotta build a special openssl on fedora already

2607 2011-07-04 20:49:56 <devrandom> BlueMatt: maybe not support older distros?
2608 2011-07-04 20:50:04 <devrandom> or build db4.7 from source on 8.04?
2609 2011-07-04 20:50:39 <SeriousWorm> do any miner devs come around here? specifically I'd like to talk to a phoenix dev / someone who knows a lot about kernels :)
2610 2011-07-04 20:51:07 <BlueMatt> yea I was thinking build bdb4.7 from source on 8.04

2625 2011-07-04 20:54:22 <BlueMatt> devrandom: well Id like to have it fixed for 0.3.24, so Ill probably just build bdb from source, but I was just trying everything to not have to do that
2626 2011-07-04 20:55:03 <zapnap> jgarzik: i'm seeing a really odd situation when running on os x... where the reported content-length appears to be off by one. if i do a strlen on the body, i get, for ex, 62, but content-length is being reported as 61, so my json gets truncated. this only happens on os x. it's fine on linux, both tested with same codebase and using pyminer as a client
2627 2011-07-04 20:55:22 <jgarzik> zapnap: that's very strange :)
2628 2011-07-04 20:55:24 <zapnap> can you think of... any reason that might be the case? :p i'm scratching my head.
2629 2011-07-04 20:55:25 <devrandom> BlueMatt: I can try to get a gitian build of bdb in isolation tomorrow...

2634 2011-07-04 20:56:17 <devrandom> ok
2635 2011-07-04 20:56:33 <diki> jgarzik, what exactly is NPAR?
2636 2011-07-04 20:56:36 <diki> "#define NPAR 32"??
2637 2011-07-04 20:56:45 <devrandom> BlueMatt: as part of the existing build, or as a separte build?
2638 2011-07-04 20:56:45 <zapnap> jgarzik: i guess that was my question, really. i'm not sure why it's happening. it's fixed locally for me by using strlen, but i assume that's a bad idea technically (a patch would not get accepted, in other words)
2639 2011-07-04 20:57:02 <BlueMatt> devrandom: it would be in 0.3.24
2640 2011-07-04 20:57:29 <BlueMatt> or the next rc thereof
2641 2011-07-04 20:57:35 <devrandom> BlueMatt: I mean, are you extending the bitcoin gitian build script or are you creating a separate build script for bdb?
2642 2011-07-04 20:57:53 <BlueMatt> extending
2643 2011-07-04 20:58:00 <devrandom> ok
2644 2011-07-04 20:58:00 <BitcoinForNewegg> is mtgox broken?
2645 2011-07-04 20:58:06 <BitcoinForNewegg> look at market channel
2646 2011-07-04 20:58:18 <gmaxwell> midnightmagic: well, re-sha3: DJB thinks pretty lowly of most of the distinguishers people have reported. No hash function is a real random oracle, the fact that you can find some property doesn't mean you've found a useful one.
2647 2011-07-04 20:58:28 <BlueMatt> devrandom: I mean I could, but that is just too complicated for just bitcoin for now
2648 2011-07-04 20:58:34 <BitcoinForNewegg> it seems stuck foing dozens of trades instantly at one price

2650 2011-07-04 20:59:12 <zapnap> actually i take that back. the Content-Length header is correct. the strlen of the body_str is just incorrect after the strndup
2651 2011-07-04 20:59:15 <devrandom> BlueMatt: you mean it's too complicated to have a separate build script?

2655 2011-07-04 21:00:49 <jgarzik> zapnap: maybe there is an issue with C's terminating NUL. that is a common off-by-one cause.

2661 2011-07-04 21:01:54 <zapnap> jgarzik: also, sent you a pull request (unrelated) for the sha password storage stuff.
2662 2011-07-04 21:02:03 <zapnap> and thanks as always for your help
2663 2011-07-04 21:03:11 <BlueMatt> devrandom: sounds cool, but Ill leave that to you ;)
2664 2011-07-04 21:03:27 <devrandom> BlueMatt: and if that works, just output the .a, .h files from the library gitian build and stick them in the inputs directory for all future bitcoin builds
2665 2011-07-04 21:03:32 <devrandom> BlueMatt: sounds good

2699 2011-07-04 21:23:08 <BlueMatt> and it is therefore spam

2705 2011-07-04 21:24:45 <luke-jr> BlueMatt: it's no more spam than any other CIA message
2706 2011-07-04 21:24:47 <Anduck> why is bitcoind eating all the processor?
2707 2011-07-04 21:24:59 <luke-jr> Anduck: because you did -gen=1 or something silly like that?
2708 2011-07-04 21:25:04 <Anduck> no
2709 2011-07-04 21:25:08 <Anduck> i didnt use any attributes
2710 2011-07-04 21:25:12 <Anduck> just ./bitcoind
2711 2011-07-04 21:25:16 <luke-jr> Anduck: at some time in the past?
2712 2011-07-04 21:25:20 <Anduck> nope
2713 2011-07-04 21:25:20 <luke-jr> it remembers
2714 2011-07-04 21:25:23 <Anduck> fresh install
2715 2011-07-04 21:25:30 <luke-jr> oh
2716 2011-07-04 21:25:37 <luke-jr> then it's probably downloading and verifying the block chain
2717 2011-07-04 21:25:47 <Anduck> it uses up all the processor for a while, then for some while it doesn't
2718 2011-07-04 21:25:48 <BlueMatt> luke-jr: no, everyone appreciates improvements to the client, but not if you spam the chan with commits that only apply to you
2719 2011-07-04 21:25:49 <Anduck> ok
2720 2011-07-04 21:25:51 <Anduck> might be that =D
2721 2011-07-04 21:26:15 <Anduck> how to stop it downloading and verifying blockchai?
2722 2011-07-04 21:26:20 <BlueMatt> luke-jr: and no, the cia messages for bitcoin itself are good for people who watch to read each change to bitcoin
2723 2011-07-04 21:26:27 <luke-jr> Anduck: bitcoind stop
2724 2011-07-04 21:26:33 <Anduck> but i wanna keep bitcoind running
2725 2011-07-04 21:26:35 <luke-jr> Anduck: note it's not useful until it does that tohugh
2726 2011-07-04 21:26:42 <BlueMatt> luke-jr: I know, at a minimum, me, sipa, jgarzk, tcam, and gavin do
2727 2011-07-04 21:26:46 <Anduck> luke-jr, yeah
2728 2011-07-04 21:26:50 <luke-jr> BlueMatt: and that's what it is: changes to bitcoin
2729 2011-07-04 21:26:59 <BlueMatt> luke-jr: changes to *your* bitcoin
2730 2011-07-04 21:27:04 <Anduck> but for my testing purposes- i wanna keep bitcoind up and answering but not loading blocks
2731 2011-07-04 21:27:11 <luke-jr> BlueMatt: again, I'm not interested in your elitist crap
2732 2011-07-04 21:27:25 <luke-jr> Anduck: then run a testnet in a box
2733 2011-07-04 21:27:39 <BlueMatt> luke-jr: ok, Ill just ban CIA-103
2734 2011-07-04 21:27:46 <zapnap> jgarzik: fyi, turns out it was a flawed local implementation of strndup, since os x doesn't actually include strndup as part of its core
2735 2011-07-04 21:27:50 <zapnap> i'll send a pull request
2736 2011-07-04 21:27:51 <luke-jr> BlueMatt: thankfully you don't have that power to abuse

2738 2011-07-04 21:27:59 <cuddlefish> luke-jr: he's opped.

2740 2011-07-04 21:28:06 <luke-jr> who made that mistake?
2741 2011-07-04 21:28:16 <Anduck> he will not be opped too long if he starts to abuse his powers although
2742 2011-07-04 21:28:34 <Anduck> but: to topic, is it possible to stop bitcoind loading blockchain but still keep it running? =)
2743 2011-07-04 21:28:41 <luke-jr> Anduck: testnet in a box
2744 2011-07-04 21:28:44 <Anduck> i just want the process to run but not use ANY cpu
2745 2011-07-04 21:28:53 <Anduck> hmm
2746 2011-07-04 21:28:57 <luke-jr> Anduck: it doesn't do anything useful if it doesn't have a valid block chain
2747 2011-07-04 21:29:08 <Anduck> hmmm
2748 2011-07-04 21:29:14 <luke-jr> testnet in a box will make its own block chain from scratch I think
2749 2011-07-04 21:29:21 <Anduck> what attributes are needed to do it=?
2750 2011-07-04 21:29:36 <luke-jr> Anduck: I think it's a script
2751 2011-07-04 21:29:42 <luke-jr> Anduck: never used it myself, try Google
2752 2011-07-04 21:29:51 <luke-jr> or maybe someone else here knows

2844 2011-07-04 22:26:29 <spq> what do you think about pgp signed btc adresses - imagine the unpossible: an exchange getting hacked ;) - the hackers could easily modify the website code to always show their bitcoin addresses instead of the addresses of the exchange - with any kind of signature it would be possible to detect that
2845 2011-07-04 22:26:31 <marioxcc> I get things like

2851 2011-07-04 22:28:28 <marioxcc> what does it means?
2852 2011-07-04 22:28:31 <spq> dont know exactly but i think it contains references to blocks and transactions

2916 2011-07-04 22:43:23 <denisx> does bitcoin only connect to addnodes at start or also later?

2918 2011-07-04 22:43:40 <jgarzik> BlueMatt: what is there, besides gavin's block chain lockin?
2919 2011-07-04 22:43:50 <justmoon> hmm :|
2920 2011-07-04 22:43:57 <jgarzik> justmoon: ?
2921 2011-07-04 22:44:16 <gmaxwell> denisx: only at start right now.
2922 2011-07-04 22:44:22 <justmoon> jgarzik, we had a kerfuffle about the bot being to spammy so I'm writing a ruleset to make it print only the first line for each commit message
2923 2011-07-04 22:44:32 <justmoon> too*
2924 2011-07-04 22:44:39 <gmaxwell> denisx: if they get disconnected they're like any other nodes in addr.dat as far as I can tell.
2925 2011-07-04 22:44:45 <jgarzik> I don't think the bot is too spammy
2926 2011-07-04 22:44:50 <BlueMatt> jgarzik: Im gonna submit a bunch of stuff thats the build stuff to be put in the repo, and let people test the updates to the win32 builds, also gavin wanted https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/379 and I say either https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/378 or some nMinVersion in wallet is strictly necessary
2927 2011-07-04 22:44:56 <jgarzik> even showing luke-jr's commits here is just fine with me
2928 2011-07-04 22:45:01 <jgarzik> it shows community work
2929 2011-07-04 22:45:23 <gim> hmm what's the current boost version requirement?
2930 2011-07-04 22:45:29 <jgarzik> though calling them an implicit pull request is the height of silliness
2931 2011-07-04 22:45:37 <jgarzik> luke-jr, BlueMatt: ^^
2932 2011-07-04 22:45:45 <justmoon> jgarzik, well, it looks like I'm not going to succeed anyway, so I'll probably revert to the old settings in a minute here
2933 2011-07-04 22:45:49 <BlueMatt> jgarzik: it absolutely can get spammy sometimes if you are trying to discuss something and there are suddenly 10 lines of commit stuff
2934 2011-07-04 22:46:29 <jgarzik> <shrug> sometimes you're trying to discuss something, and then xelister or Diablo-D3 speaks
2935 2011-07-04 22:46:31 <jgarzik> same diff
2936 2011-07-04 22:46:43 <justmoon> woah, burn
2937 2011-07-04 22:46:53 <BlueMatt> whatever, justmoon fixed it
2938 2011-07-04 22:47:24 <justmoon> BlueMatt, not really - it now shows the long url instead of the shortened one, and for single line commit messages it shows the url twice
2939 2011-07-04 22:47:55 <jgarzik> I'd just say that CIA* should avoid showing merge commits. Other than that, CIA is probably the less spammy than IRC join/quit notifications
2940 2011-07-04 22:47:57 <BlueMatt> justmoon: hey, in one message that is 100x better than it used to be
2941 2011-07-04 22:48:06 <BlueMatt> jgarzik: you know you can hide those
2942 2011-07-04 22:48:15 <justmoon> BlueMatt, I'll leave that up to you and jeff then
2943 2011-07-04 22:48:25 <BlueMatt> meh, looks fine to me

2957 2011-07-04 22:51:49 <BlueMatt> "In version 0.3.22 (and I'd assume prior versions as well), Bitcoin opens fine and displays transactions, however shows a total balance of what is help only in unencrypted keys (of which it also writes a minimum of one before opening), and each transaction shows only confirmation count,
2958 2011-07-04 22:51:49 <BlueMatt> date, no description, and a debit/credit of 0.00. When you try to perform any action which attempts to read keypool, you get the "ReserveKeyFromKeyPool() : unknown key in key pool" error."
2959 2011-07-04 22:52:11 <BlueMatt> "In version 0.3.23, Bitcoin dies with "ReserveKeyFromKeyPool() : unknown key in key pool" after writing one unencrypted private key to the (otherwise) encrypted wallet."
2960 2011-07-04 22:52:29 <jgarzik> BlueMatt: what about the suggestion to use nMinVersion or somesuch, to get < 0.3.24 to shit themselves in a predictable way?

2968 2011-07-04 22:55:47 <jgarzik> BlueMatt: basically, I don't see a -lot- of value in #378, because we must consider the case of behavior w/out #378 anyway. so adding #378 simply creates three possibilities to deal with (+enc, -enc +378, and -enc) rather than just two (+enc, -enc)
2969 2011-07-04 22:56:11 <jgarzik> I'd rather just find a uniform behavior across all -enc versions
2970 2011-07-04 22:56:24 <BlueMatt> jgarzik: 378 has nothing to do with now, it is simply for future similar changes
