jurov | no they're all about bahts, have you seen the symbol? | [00:00] |
mircea_popescu | anyway, things are getting pretty much wrapped up, im upgrading mpex.co back online from "this week" to "today". | [00:00] |
jurov | yup, congrats | [00:00] |
mircea_popescu | youtube being fags : http://www.youtube.com/embed/8c1BQkKUsx0 < does not need flash ; http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8c1BQkKUsx0 does need flash | [00:03] |
jurov | have you seen https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=49417.msg1610708#msg1610708 ? | [00:03] |
mircea_popescu | howly fuck | [00:03] |
mircea_popescu | it just never ends does it | [00:04] |
mircea_popescu | wait. this is asicminer pool ? | [00:04] |
dub | this DrG idiot | [00:04] |
gesell | mircea_popescu: thanks for the link | [00:05] |
jcpham | yeah mircea_popescu | [00:05] |
jcpham | the op of the asicminer pool decided to fork his pool for a few minutes | [00:05] |
mircea_popescu | so basically asicminer made a shitton | [00:05] |
jcpham | accidentally | [00:05] |
mircea_popescu | and there's going to be drama ? | [00:05] |
dub | not commiserate with teh ideals of bitcoin, kind of person bitcoin does not need.. The person is blatantly and willfully violating the trust of Bitcoin network and for that he/she should be reprimanded. | [00:06] |
jcpham | so while bitcoind was running with no db | [00:06] |
dub | what is this shit | [00:06] |
gesell | mircea_popescu: are you seriously considering a gmail protocol? this seems nuts. maybe you should consider https://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc1149 first | [00:06] |
jcpham | i assume the miners were doing diff 0 shares | [00:06] |
mircea_popescu | dub da fck is this ?! | [00:06] |
jcpham | until the hot wallet was empty | [00:06] |
mircea_popescu | gesell mail is not nuts. mail is the strongest, oldest and in general best service ever implemented on the internet. | [00:06] |
dub | I didn't think bitcoind offered work until it was synced | [00:07] |
mircea_popescu | in the worst case scenario, mail is the backstop. | [00:07] |
jborkl_ | I think it would have been network diff at the point of the blockchain download you were mining | [00:07] |
gesell | mircea_popescu: yes mail is but using google as a trusted host gate, not sure | [00:07] |
mircea_popescu | dub it was prolly bugged. | [00:07] |
jcpham | i upgraded bitcoind today | [00:07] |
jcpham | it resyncs | [00:07] |
mircea_popescu | gesell just had that as an arbitrary name | [00:07] |
dub | yeah new db | [00:07] |
jcpham | dunno how a pool handles the resync | [00:07] |
jborkl_ | at block 195000 it was i think 1.95 m for example | [00:07] |
mircea_popescu | it wouldn't certainly be a case of trusting google. | [00:07] |
mircea_popescu | the discussion was anyway an "in principle" thing. | [00:07] |
gesell | mircea_popescu: okay | [00:08] |
FabianB | MPEx.rb 0.5.0 released (https://github.com/fawuxi/mpex/) includes irc convo logging and a new 'portfolio' command with prediction of your total portfolio value | [00:08] |
jborkl_ | so while he was dl, blocks would have been synching fast- but mining at 200k diff | [00:08] |
FabianB | maximian: ^^ | [00:08] |
FabianB | mircea_popescu: also proxy discovery included now :) | [00:08] |
jborkl_ | for example | [00:08] |
mircea_popescu | FabianB :D | [00:09] |
mircea_popescu | irc logging is a good idea. include a ticker to bold my lines ? :D | [00:09] |
mircea_popescu | i mean a tickbox | [00:09] |
mircea_popescu | "If bank places by mistake 10k into your account, and you cash it out, your will probably rot in jail.." | [00:09] |
mircea_popescu | what world do these people live in, seriously ?! | [00:10] |
* | dgdfgdfg (4f8da71d@gateway/web/freenode/ip.79.141.167.29) has left #bitcoin-assets | [00:10] |
dub | thats true, at least here | [00:10] |
pigeons | if you dont give it back you will | [00:10] |
FabianB | mircea_popescu: it's just the conversation of MPEx.rb with the irc bots, not of this channel | [00:10] |
jcpham | if the pool with the most hashrate is mining on a non -up-to-date copy of the blockchain | [00:10] |
mircea_popescu | FabianB :p | [00:10] |
jcpham | that's an issue | [00:10] |
mircea_popescu | dub they will have to sue for unjust enrichment. they may win it, | [00:11] |
mircea_popescu | but then again they may not. | [00:11] |
pigeons | they always will | [00:11] |
gesell | mircea_popescu: why not use google spreadsheets for graphs and orderbook review? | [00:11] |
pigeons | which is why mp lost in his own hand picked rota | [00:11] |
gesell | in that scenerio you would script updates (not pull from an api, as this might overrun google apps limits) | [00:11] |
mircea_popescu | pigeons not really true. they always will try to convince the person to return it | [00:12] |
mircea_popescu | but afaik such claims are rare. usually cost more to sue than they'd get | [00:12] |
pigeons | really, absoulutely trye. give me one example where its not | [00:12] |
mircea_popescu | gesell you can go right ahead, or what are you asking ? | [00:12] |
kakobrekla | i have seen it happen here and the bank gets the money back one way or another | [00:12] |
pigeons | ive seen plenty where it is true, none where it isnt | [00:12] |
mircea_popescu | pigeons you've seen a case where a bank sued the recipient of an error for unjust enrichment ? | [00:12] |
pigeons | yes | [00:13] |
pigeons | more than one | [00:13] |
mircea_popescu | link or docket or anything ? | [00:13] |
dub | pretty sure its straight up law here | [00:13] |
assbot | [BTCTC] [B.YABMC] 1 @ 0.01401 BTC [-] | [00:13] |
assbot | [BTCTC] [B.YABMC] 1 @ 0.01401 BTC [-] | [00:13] |
dub | bank fucks up, give it back or the police come get you | [00:13] |
gesell | mircea_popescu: well i would be happy to make some spreadsheets to pull the order books but this would require some sort of mpex api (json or xml or whatever) for that and again, leave you open to ddos. but if you pushed the data onto your own public spreadsheet you would avoid any ddos on your public facing graphs and orderbooks | [00:13] |
mircea_popescu | not an expert but iirc it was rare shit. | [00:13] |
pigeons | dont have my lexisnexis here | [00:13] |
mircea_popescu | gesell you seen the faq ? | [00:13] |
pigeons | but sure, i'll remember | [00:13] |
gesell | mircea_popescu: not in bit. checking again | [00:13] |
mircea_popescu | specifically, http://mpex.coinbr.com/faq.html#11 | [00:13] |
gesell | oh didnt see the sierra chart feed | [00:14] |
gesell | and json | [00:14] |
mircea_popescu | json been there for a while. sierra recent addition | [00:14] |
mircea_popescu | also kakobrekla has a websocket feed he's been selling people. | [00:14] |
gesell | mircea_popescu: are those feeds not effected by the ddos? | [00:15] |
mircea_popescu | nothing's affected other than the website which people somehow get fixated on. | [00:16] |
gesell | mircea_popescu: it's the face. but is interesting to contemplate what that means and reshaping it. | [00:18] |
mircea_popescu | let's think together what that means. | [00:18] |
mircea_popescu | domain gets "confiscated", somehow. | [00:18] |
mircea_popescu | nobody cares. moving on. | [00:18] |
mircea_popescu | that's what it means. | [00:18] |
* | [\] has quit () | [00:19] |
* | random_cat has quit (Ping timeout: 276 seconds) | [00:20] |
gesell | mircea_popescu: well its also strange that the proxy seems to be a mirror. as apposed to it being it's own form of interface. | [00:20] |
pigeons | it proxies | [00:20] |
FabianB | well stock trading volume went down, but never stopped; options as usual | [00:20] |
gesell | if the face effects trades then, well, recovery should be monitored. and hopefully there is recovery | [00:21] |
pigeons | or, the face can go away | [00:22] |
pigeons | and people can learn to trade anyway | [00:22] |
mircea_popescu | gesell say what ? i don't follow | [00:22] |
mircea_popescu | the proxy mirror part | [00:22] |
smickles | so the ddoser's name is "the face"? | [00:23] |
smickles | nice | [00:23] |
deadweasel | lol. the face | [00:24] |
mircea_popescu | https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=140472.msg1610300#msg1610300 << most likely to be agreed with forum person. | [00:24] |
mircea_popescu | you'd never guess it. | [00:24] |
mircea_popescu | https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=151880.msg1612122#msg1612122 another one | [00:24] |
mircea_popescu | wtf is going on over there | [00:24] |
smickles | '... or else nazi and nazi' | [00:25] |
mircea_popescu | she called him thermos too | [00:25] |
gesell | mircea_popescu: for lack of a better comparison... say for instance that some brokerage firm was had their own interface to nyse showing trades and tickers. this would "feel" decoupled from the excchange itself so people would not associate the two. if nyse decided to change how they present themselves that brokerage face would not be percieved as, i dont know, a quick crutch to fill the gap. where as when it is mirroring nyse so closely | [00:25] |
mircea_popescu | gesell are you a web developer by any chance ? | [00:26] |
gesell | mircea_popescu: hobby web dev for aesthetics. serious code and hardware hacker for the $ | [00:26] |
mircea_popescu | okay. | [00:26] |
pigeons | basically, mircea_popescu does not care how it "feels" | [00:26] |
gesell | hacker meaning reverse engineer (meaning, f;ing serious) | [00:27] |
mircea_popescu | aha. | [00:27] |
gesell | pigeons: even if he doesnt care. it is still interesting to consider what the market effects of change of face are, and where the middle ground is, and where there is space to innovate in a intuitive way. or maybe there isnt really | [00:27] |
pigeons | not interesting | [00:27] |
smickles | gesell: did you notice that my mpexbot has a direct line into mpex, yet doesn't look like a mirror? | [00:28] |
mircea_popescu | pigeons that is exactly the opposite of reality. i very much care how it feels. which is why the proxy doesn't have spurious dongles, but feels just like the real tihng. | [00:28] |
gesell | pigeons: if change of face did effect trade volume, that is interesting to explore | [00:28] |
smickles | ;D | [00:28] |
mircea_popescu | what i don't care about is appearance bullshit. there's a very good reason for that : unlike the web, the retail market for plastic figurines and fake fags, | [00:28] |
mircea_popescu | i actually have a business. | [00:28] |
gesell | smickles: yeah mpexbot... so it could be that just as mpex forces people to understand that the odd security model is better (and forces people to learn why and learn what pgp is) maybe it is of value to force them to use a different interface in a similar way. but the cause and effect is not as clear with the Web vs Mpexbot, as it was with the gpg protocol | [00:29] |
mircea_popescu | for some reason i have a lot of trouble following this guy. | [00:30] |
* | Anduck has quit (Ping timeout: 256 seconds) | [00:30] |
smickles | mircea_popescu: that mpex gui i'm developing is nearly functionally complete | [00:30] |
mircea_popescu | 0.0 | [00:30] |
mircea_popescu | what do they feed you over there, uppers in speedball sauce ? | [00:30] |
pigeons | it better have minecraft | [00:30] |
FabianB | gesell: in both cases you need gpg to trade | [00:30] |
smickles | pigeons: not minecraft, but opengl like was discussed yesterday | [00:31] |
gesell | mircea_popescu: not sure. i think i just dont explain abstract thoughts well. | [00:31] |
pigeons | i want bricks of some sort then | [00:31] |
smickles | i have a screenshot of it | [00:31] |
pigeons | lego mpex | [00:31] |
mircea_popescu | totally. opengl. | [00:31] |
pigeons | zork mpex too | [00:31] |
smickles | http://imgur.com/fwa71Fj | [00:31] |
mircea_popescu | pigeons lemme quote a person familiar with the matter, for your benefit : | [00:32] |
gesell | smickles: is that QT based? | [00:32] |
smickles | nope | [00:32] |
gesell | gtk? | [00:32] |
* | midnightmagic has quit (Ping timeout: 250 seconds) | [00:32] |
smickles | nope | [00:32] |
gesell | tcl/tk?? | [00:32] |
mircea_popescu | "i get the feeling ima wake up one of these days and like there will be a little mpex anthill, and mpex transaction wallpaint and i can order a stat from the magazin alimentar" | [00:32] |
mircea_popescu | it's uppers in speedball sauce based. | [00:32] |

gesell | then i hope the buy button creates a buy event on button down and not button released ;) | [00:33] |
smickles | gesell: it's a toolkit which uses opengl, i don't know too much about it | [00:33] |
smickles | i just know how to use it | [00:34] |
* | deadweasel has quit (Quit: leaving) | [00:34] |
smickles | and that i should be able to make binaries for win, mac, linux and android with it | [00:34] |

smickles | gesell: aw, i picked button released, is that bad? | [00:35] |
mircea_popescu | it is yeah. | [00:35] |
gesell | smickles: yes, they people on upper speedball sauce will have to click for each buy whereas on button down they could just Hooooooold and buy shit loads | [00:35] |
dub | lol | [00:36] |
smickles | lol, well, the buy button goes to a detailed asset page with price and quantity inputs | [00:36] |
gesell | aaaah | [00:36] |
smickles | yeah, i'd figure you'd want to know the best ask if you planned to buy | [00:37] |
dub | why? | [00:37] |
dub | this is mpex, we invest for the future, regardless of price | [00:38] |
mircea_popescu | sutmm ? | [00:38] |
pigeons | http://www.businessinsider.com/intrade-shutting-down-2013-3 | [00:38] |
smickles | i have that one drawn up right now. left side full depth (scrollable) right 2/3's has details up at top and input middle, confirmation button at bottom | [00:38] |
gesell | smickles: sounds good | [00:38] |
gesell | kivy is interesting. new to me | [00:38] |
dub | if you care about price you are the wrong kind of investor | [00:38] |
dub | remember that | [00:38] |
mircea_popescu | intrade news is old! https://twitter.com/Mircea_Popescu/status/310988017236049921 | [00:38] |
smickles | also, the thing is proxy aware and checks for updated proxy lists | [00:38] |
mircea_popescu | smickles almost like a botnet. | [00:39] |

kakobrekla | i can make you a special 'yes and no is switched' interface | [00:41] |
mircea_popescu | lol | [00:41] |
mircea_popescu | kakobrekla you know this may be a workable idea ? | [00:41] |
mircea_popescu | put a link on main page, "Bad luck lately ?" | [00:42] |
kakobrekla | ahah | [00:42] |
mircea_popescu | if person clicks it site is color switched (everything) | [00:42] |
smickles | lol, what an idea | [00:42] |
mircea_popescu | and yes/no also switched in menus but not in actual effect. | [00:42] |
mircea_popescu | so they go for yes but it bets no | [00:42] |
mircea_popescu | and we see how many people actyually use that. | [00:42] |

gesell | what tha, btc24 now second largest exchange? that was fast | [01:09] |
mircea_popescu | whos btc24 even ? | [01:10] |
gesell | beh, they got their own bots on the exchnage |
[01:10] |
gesell | bitcoin-24.com http://bitdata.com/articles/102 | [01:10] |
mircea_popescu | i see bitstamp at 150k | [01:11] |
mircea_popescu | or you meant eur ? | [01:11] |
mircea_popescu | ya ok | [01:11] |
gesell | not sure how bitdata compiled that chart. it isnt eur specific | [01:11] |

gesell | sorry #2 not %2 | [01:12] |

gesell | perhaps. just mapped their bots edges and it tends to push it's own reserve volume over other bids that it thinks are too low | [01:14] |
gesell | up to a certain limit, perhaps set based on numbers of averages on other exchnages | [01:15] |
gesell | maybe its an arbitrage protection bot, or not sure | [01:15] |
mircea_popescu | this is probably a recipe for disaster | [01:15] |
mircea_popescu | have everyone entering fake trades based on the other people's fake trades averages | [01:15] |
kakobrekla | bitstamp is fucked and ran by idiots | [01:15] |
mircea_popescu | in fact it's probably the main source of volatility atm | [01:15] |
assbot | [BTCTC] [CRYPTO-TRADE] 4 @ 0.19999 = 0.8 BTC [-] | [01:16] |
gesell | mircea_popescu: what do you mean by fake trades? I think on btc24, unlike mtgox, if you buy your fiat gets locked and you cant make another order. same on sell. of course their own local bots could fake, but i could not prove this. and actually they wouldnt have to fake, if all they really want to do is some moderate protection from arbitrage | [01:16] |
mircea_popescu | gesell if the exchange is running it's own bot, | [01:16] |
mircea_popescu | and it is feeding it from the trades on other exchanges | [01:17] |
mircea_popescu | except everyone does this | [01:17] |

mircea_popescu | pizzaman1337 very likely actually. | [04:31] |
Chaang-Noi | im pretty sure i know how this drama will play out | [04:31] |
wiggzz | but, on a put required capital is not as great as they can fall | [04:31] |
Chaang-Noi | fiat in the gox will beat the 6 confirm sell off | [04:32] |
gesell | something that really disturbs me right now is the number of way overpriced buy bids still sitting on bitcoin.de (a p2p exchange with pretty high volume) | [04:32] |
assbot | [MPEX] [O.BTCUSD.C490N] 10 @ 0.1721919 = 1.7219 BTC | [04:32] |

mircea_popescu | bitcoin devs to stop all development of new versions, work on bitcoin specification exclusively, then release one cleanned up bitcoin version. | [07:47] |
mircea_popescu | an' take it from there. | [07:48] |
mircea_popescu | $mpexlag | [07:49] |
mpexbot | mircea_popescu: 0.110903978348 seconds | [07:49] |
Bowjob | BFL should atone for their sins and mine with the ASICs if they have them and help save the network | [07:49] |
ThickAsThieves | overall this still lowers difficulty next round a little right? | [07:50] |
maximian | Bowjob the network is being saved right now…. it's just taking some time because hashing power is split between two chains. | [07:50] |
ThickAsThieves | they had to remine blocks right? | [07:50] |
ThickAsThieves | and a portion of the hashing is still going to dead blocks | [07:50] |
mircea_popescu | ThickAsThieves yes it does | [07:50] |
Bowjob | yeah but who is mining on 0.8 still? | [07:50] |
mircea_popescu | diff shall have a hole in it | [07:50] |
Bowjob | they have no clue? | [07:51] |
ThickAsThieves | people sleep | [07:51] |
mircea_popescu | Bowjob prolly p2pool | [07:51] |
ThickAsThieves | i wanna sleep | [07:51] |
Bowjob | sleep? | [07:51] |
Bowjob | whats that | [07:51] |
ThickAsThieves | but i also wanna watch the fireworks | [07:51] |
ThickAsThieves | so this is good for asicminer(s), they get an extra day of lower diff, maybe more | [07:53] |

mircea_popescu | ThickAsThieves they are the largest losers mining on dead chain | [07:53] |
BingoBongo | Interesting how p2pool was supposed to "prevent network centralization" seems to be doing the job... | [07:54] |
ThickAsThieves | asicminer is on the main chain, btcguild | [07:54] |
Bowjob | so basically if i get this right, those mining on 0.8 are wasting their time | [07:54] |
ThickAsThieves | yes | [07:54] |
ThickAsThieves | their blocks will never get confirmed | [07:54] |
Bowjob | by "main" you mean 0.7 | [07:54] |
ThickAsThieves | unless they fork intentionally... | [07:54] |
ThickAsThieves | yes | [07:55] |
BitHub | any press conference release statements from the devs yet? | [07:55] |
ThickAsThieves | the one with majority hashing power | [07:55] |
mircea_popescu | BingoBongo exactly. | [07:55] |
ThickAsThieves | essentially btcguild and the other big ones are doing a 51% attack | [07:55] |
ThickAsThieves | to go back to the .7 chain | [07:55] |
mircea_popescu | ThickAsThieves and it's not trivial to get the fuck off .8 | [07:56] |
mircea_popescu | because you'll need old chain | [07:56] |
kakobrekla | eleuretheria or whatever wants his coins back | [07:56] |
mircea_popescu | kakobrekla that poor guy you know ? | [07:56] |
mircea_popescu | fucked by .8 x2 | [07:56] |
kakobrekla | yea | [07:56] |
Bowjob | skip the 0.8 | [07:56] |
Bowjob | next release should be 0.9 | [07:56] |
mircea_popescu | NEXT TIME devs want ppl to upgrade ppl will be like | [07:56] |
mircea_popescu | "sure, got escrow ?" | [07:56] |
ThickAsThieves | too bad for him, but maybe now he'll have better protocol for changing his software | [07:56] |
mircea_popescu | yea. as in, not change it. | [07:57] |
mircea_popescu | perfect protocol. | [07:57] |

mircea_popescu | ironic that the end result of the Luke-Jr & co group of idiots starting their little jihad on s.dice | [08:03] |

mircea_popescu | midnightmagic i wouldbn't bet on "people" mattering | [09:28] |
mircea_popescu | we are discussing money. | [09:28] |
midnightmagic | people who use bitcoin are the people I'm talking about. | [09:28] |
midnightmagic | they are who create the economy which bitcoin encompasses. | [09:28] |
mircea_popescu | people who use bitcoin have not a fucking clue. | [09:28] |
mircea_popescu | allow me to quote : | [09:29] |
mircea_popescu | I think this means that bitcoin is in jeopardy. | [09:29] |
mircea_popescu | and they hate mpex shares! | [09:29] |
mircea_popescu | WHY ARENT the bitcoin police doing anything about these DDOS attacks? | [09:29] |
midnightmagic | correct, they don't. the thing is a lot of them know that, so what do they do? social proof. and they pick a guy (like satoshi) and decide he is the nearest thing to god. | [09:29] |
mircea_popescu | problem is the god is gone | [09:30] |
mircea_popescu | and it left behind a coven of idiots. | [09:30] |
midnightmagic | And he left a minor southern deity in charge. | [09:30] |

midnightmagic | You're trying to suggest you could be the lead of a Real bitcoin replacement. :) | [09:33] |
midnightmagic | Or rather.. boob lady is. :) | [09:33] |
mircea_popescu | not really. but i am saying that the current stuff has to go. | [09:34] |
mircea_popescu | actually, i said it months ago. | [09:34] |
midnightmagic | Yes I read that. | [09:34] |
mircea_popescu | i said the moment devs try to act like priests and leverage the obscurity of their bad code into political theosophy... they're screwed. | [09:35] |
mircea_popescu | i guess they don't read english any better than they read their own code. | [09:35] |
midnightmagic | Actually, the reference implementation was never meant to be the end-all canonical version. Satoshi always hoped someone would write a properly-funded, properly engineered client and it would become the canonical client. | [09:35] |
midnightmagic | (sort of | [09:35] |
mircea_popescu | i am aware. | [09:36] |
midnightmagic | I see no examples of political theosophy. You clearly have something in mind: out with it. :) | [09:36] |
mircea_popescu | if you recall, this all started with people knowing which transactions are good. | [09:36] |
mircea_popescu | and which usecases are acceptable. | [09:36] |
mircea_popescu | and on and on. | [09:36] |
* | paci (~paci@50-57-43-202.static.cloud-ips.com) has joined #bitcoin-assets | [09:37] |
midnightmagic | I don't see how a rationale (which Satoshi himself started, btw, by requesting that Wikileaks not use bitcoin yet,) is the snowball accretion of full-blown theosophy. | [09:38] |
BingoBongo | And mircea_popescu many will probably try to sweep it under the rug as LevelDB is broken, because it isn't BerkelyDB. You're on the right track, but I think this was probably the wrong error... | [09:38] |
mircea_popescu | BingoBongo does it make much of a difference ? | [09:39] |
mircea_popescu | midnightmagic wrong step on satoshi's part. let it be broken, rebuild. why protect it ? | [09:39] |
midnightmagic | Currently, the best choice is sipa's blacklist patch, as it allows us to remain on the faster 0.8 while still mining. | [09:39] |
mircea_popescu | if it's good it will prevail. if it sucks it will just crack and something else will come out of it | [09:39] |
BingoBongo | mircea_popescu the difference is probably how much they will try to reiforce their canon against sense... | [09:40] |
midnightmagic | mircea_popescu: blockchain-destroying events tend to set back adoption progress amongst people who are afraid of what everyone else will think. | [09:40] |
mircea_popescu | midnightmagic so ? | [09:40] |
midnightmagic | mircea_popescu: the bootstrapping itself is still going on. | [09:40] |
BingoBongo | "Good" bitcoin will probably have to overtake old by 51% As worse overtook bad tonight | [09:40] |
mircea_popescu | look, like it or not, for this reason or for some other reason, bitcoin is at a point where you can't reasonably pour more moneuy into it | [09:40] |
mircea_popescu | before it's been specified. | [09:41] |
mircea_popescu | if it can't be specified that's a dealbreaker | [09:41] |
mircea_popescu | not such a huge notion this, is it ? | [09:41] |
midnightmagic | BingoBongo: it will overtake depending on its technical and UX merits. | [09:41] |
mircea_popescu | BingoBongo have you read the girl's explanation of why multiforks resolve and aren't a problem economically ? | [09:41] |
BingoBongo | mircea_popescu I might have, I'll recheck her post history. | [09:42] |
midnightmagic | BingoBongo: Think about it this way. uTorrent killed everything else on Windows. | [09:42] |
mircea_popescu | in short : suppose chain forks into 3 different chains today, a b and c | [09:42] |
midnightmagic | mircea_popescu: On the same network? | [09:42] |
mircea_popescu | if you had 10 bitcoins today prefork, you will have 10 a 10b and 10 c bitcoins after the fork. | [09:42] |
mircea_popescu | if you sell b and buy a the price of all will go up and the price of b down. | [09:42] |
mircea_popescu | eventually the fork resolves economically simply because mining costs money. | [09:43] |
mircea_popescu | end of story. money itself is a centralising factor, and as such the slightest flicker amplifies | [09:43] |
midnightmagic | bleah.. the crosschatter would be ridiculous.. | [09:43] |
mircea_popescu | so ? | [09:43] |
mircea_popescu | more drama, more market cap. | [09:44] |
BingoBongo | Ah, this is kind of what I was thinking. I must have read without expressing the sentiment. I believe I've read similar on Trilema as well. | [09:44] |
mircea_popescu | i think so. | [09:44] |
mircea_popescu | to be perfectly candid, many people involved in bitcoin are good honest and well meaning individuals, who know about things. usually those things are coding. | [09:44] |
mircea_popescu | there's a lot more to know than coding in thsi world. | [09:45] |
midnightmagic | crosschatter and high-bandwidth reorg battles would hurt individual consensus. presume the forks are all equal hashrate to begin with: due to the nature of POW, it would be far, far worse in terms of strength against attack. | [09:45] |
midnightmagic | (like way less than 1/3) | [09:45] |
mircea_popescu | midnightmagic no. because attacker wouldn't know which to attack. | [09:45] |
BingoBongo | midnightmagic Win32 killed everything on Windows... Crosschatter happened before, some altcoin late last year did it (no halving fork) and had to be euthanized. | [09:45] |
midnightmagic | that's not the case. | [09:45] |
mircea_popescu | or even... why. | [09:45] |
midnightmagic | you must presume technical acumen on the part of the attacker. | [09:45] |
mircea_popescu | technical yes. | [09:46] |
mircea_popescu | but selecting the coin to attack is not a technical problem. | [09:46] |
mircea_popescu | and you must never presume political acumen on the part of anyone. | [09:46] |
midnightmagic | also economical savvy (as all attackers I have seen have been extremely insightful economically) | [09:46] |
midnightmagic | you must when modelling attack. | [09:46] |
mircea_popescu | here's a bomb for you midnightmagic : | [09:46] |
mircea_popescu | if the devs were a little looser in the ass, would the sort of econ savvy attackers stay that side or join this side ? | [09:46] |
midnightmagic | not godlike power, but intellectually perfect decisions, plus funded by $x dollars. | [09:47] |
midnightmagic | I don't know what that means. | [09:47] |
mircea_popescu | looser in the ass ? it means being used with being fucked in that orrifice. | [09:47] |
midnightmagic | Yeah but what has that to do with anything? Is this your way of saying you're done arguing? | [09:48] |
midnightmagic | "Argument stopper man!" | [09:48] |
mircea_popescu | nah. | [09:48] |
midnightmagic | You could just say so, I'd stop. | [09:48] |
mircea_popescu | i guess it doesn't convey, let me try another way. | [09:48] |
midnightmagic | Okay. | [09:49] |
mircea_popescu | suppose buttcoin has some devs that think all usecases are equally valid, and dorkcoin has some devs who believe using the coin for gambling is spam. | [09:49] |
mircea_popescu | suppose there is one attacker such as you've modeled him. | [09:49] |
Anduck | selling ASICMINER @ 0.76 | [09:49] |
mircea_popescu | which chain is getting attacked ? | [09:49] |
Anduck | pm if interested | [09:49] |
pigeons | by the way people dont think using bitcoin for gambling is spam, they think using bitcoin transactions to signal a lost bet is spam | [09:50] |
midnightmagic | I'd preferentially attack the ones who appeared to be more philosophically aligned with the notion of attack. | [09:50] |
mircea_popescu | same thing pigeons. as long as you're making that call your ass is too tight. | [09:50] |
midnightmagic | Also, if the money is on the side of the all-use-cases-are-valid (i.e. gambling and drugs, hypothetically) then obviously the money is where the attacker goes. | [09:50] |
mircea_popescu | live a little. | [09:50] |
pigeons | ok maybe we should just encode files and upload them to the blockchain ala namecoin too | [09:51] |
mircea_popescu | midnightmagic not so. you will be surprised to find attackers routinely forego hitting higher payoff cooler targets | [09:51] |
mircea_popescu | to focus on the uncool ones. | [09:51] |
mircea_popescu | pigeons if we shouldn't, there should not be call for doing it. | [09:51] |
midnightmagic | mircea_popescu: Well, not in my personal experience. But perhaps that's out-of-date these days. | [09:51] |
midnightmagic | The gambling servers at least are very popular targets. Extorting them is almost a Russian pastime. | [09:52] |
mircea_popescu | that;s brancing the discussion off the germane path tho | [09:52] |

mircea_popescu | sure, irrelevant ventures aren't part of the discussion, if bitcoin stays alpacca we're wasting our time with these concerns/ | [09:53] |
midnightmagic | .. but you defined the two choices earlier. I'm not agreeing that the choices match reality. I'm just hanging out in your hypothetical land because you invited me. | [09:54] |
* | Bowjob has quit (Quit: Page closed) | [09:54] |
mircea_popescu | midnightmagic that's fine, but you pervert the choices when you add riders such as "one is really vanishingly small" | [09:54] |
mircea_popescu | or "neither are payment systems, but gaming servers" | [09:54] |
mircea_popescu | etc. | [09:54] |
midnightmagic | Well if that's not what you meant, perhaps you should define things more narrowly. :) | [09:55] |
mircea_popescu | just leave it stand as it is. the theoretical response to a 51% attack is that the attacker would make more by mining. | [09:55] |
mircea_popescu | the same applies ideologically too. the network won't get attacked for as long as it manages to not stupidly offend. | [09:55] |

jborkl_ | colossal | [18:31] |
Namworld | It wasn't that colossal... just a little forking | [18:31] |
Namworld | The miners voted which would be used going forward | [18:32] |
smickles | yeah, and it's not likely that many lost btc due to incidental double spends | [18:32] |
Troic_ | it could have been colossal, if the pool ops weren't so cooperative | [18:32] |
jborkl_ | That they encouraged people to change the block size and not knowing it was going to break BDB was a big fuck up | [18:32] |
MJR_ | Namworld: what is your bonds URL again? | [18:32] |
smickles | Troic_: beauty of the system, they have a financial incentive to cooperate | [18:32] |
Namworld | https://btct.co/security/BTC-BOND | [18:32] |
deadweasel | smickles: that's what keeps me sane | [18:33] |
mircea_popescu | lol | [18:33] |
smickles | jborkl_: I do wish they had tested .8 better. tis could've been caught | [18:33] |
mircea_popescu | jborkl_ the idea is strong, the implementation horrible | [18:33] |
Namworld | they can still mass object to changes and refuse... but the longest chain will be the one with most miners. | [18:33] |
mircea_popescu | in a sense this backhandedly proves how strong the idea is | [18:33] |
Namworld | The issue is not in .8 at all... | [18:33] |
smickles | gavin had admitted to testing 500k blocks | [18:34] |
smickles | but not 1m blocks | [18:34] |
mircea_popescu | smickles heh. | [18:34] |
Namworld | It's in .7 | [18:34] |
Namworld | No amount of testing would have found the issue. .7 would have needed to be tested. | [18:34] |
mircea_popescu | Namworld would you stop ? | [18:34] |
mircea_popescu | any statement that claims "no amout of testing" is a lie by its nature | [18:34] |
jcpham | red light. | [18:34] |
smickles | Namworld: depends how you look at it no? the iss presented with the interaction of .8 and .7 | [18:34] |
smickles | something gavin was testing, just not toroughly enough | [18:35] |
Namworld | The issue was in .7, if they tested .8 forever, they'd never have found the issue if they didn't use .7 in the testing. | [18:35] |
mircea_popescu | obviously not the amount of testing they were willing to do in between chat session and harassinfg the userbase found it | [18:35] |
jborkl_ | I ran .7 and .8 versions, If I had run testnet and made a 1mb block I would have most likely broken .7 | [18:35] |
mircea_popescu | still, more testing WOULD have eventually found it. | [18:35] |
smickles | Namworld: gavin said he would've caught it if he had tested a larger block on the testnet | [18:35] |
Namworld | aye | [18:36] |
mircea_popescu | smickles gotta give props to gavin, he's one of the few that are actually contrite enough. | [18:36] |
mircea_popescu | he might be the only pro in the bunch, too. | [18:36] |
smickles | he only tested 500k blocks, and it happened on a 900k block | [18:36] |
mircea_popescu | 967 or some shit | [18:36] |
Namworld | I'm not saying it couldn't have been found, I'm just refuting that doing more testing on .8 would have given any result. | [18:36] |
mircea_popescu | unauthoritatively my it says berkley seems to choke in this case over about 10k records | [18:37] |
mircea_popescu | Namworld the "on .8" is a meaningless constraint. | [18:37] |
mircea_popescu | who and why would be testing on .8 only ?! | [18:37] |
jborkl_ | really, only test a part of the code against itself? | [18:37] |
mircea_popescu | jborkl_ for great lulz. | [18:37] |
Namworld | I know... but people everywhere say that .8 should have been tested more so the issue would have been found. | [18:38] |
* | Guest85292 has quit (Ping timeout: 245 seconds) | [18:38] |
mircea_popescu | well yes. that is correct, it should have been, | [18:38] |
mircea_popescu | nobody is saying "shouldhave been tested more by itself in a vacuum" | [18:38] |
jborkl_ | I just solo mined on .72 again last night until it was all figured out- I knew I kept .72 around and running for a reason | [18:38] |
Namworld | ARGH | [18:38] |
smickles | Namworld: i believe they do test for interaction with older versions | [18:39] |
mircea_popescu | jborkl_ i've always been slow to upgrade, specifically for lack of faith. | [18:39] |
MJR_ | Namworld: I think what they mean is that part of testing a new release is testing it's interactions with other versions for backward compatiblity | [18:39] |
smickles | they certainly outta now | [18:39] |
Namworld | Don't you get it? I'm trying to refute people who think the issue is with .8 and that .8 alone should have been tested more... | [18:39] |
jborkl_ | Yeah, me too- I don't like being the first to change- bit me too many times | [18:39] |
Namworld | Not that more proper testing would not have found the issue (proper with many versions). That more testing of .8 alone would have not changed anything. | [18:39] |
Namworld | This is the only thing I'm trying to say. | [18:40] |
smickles | personall, i include previous version interaction in the testing of one version | [18:40] |
smickles | so it's a silly argument :P differences in definitions | [18:40] |
Namworld | ah, I see. | [18:40] |
mircea_popescu | Namworld a, the issue isn't with .8 | [18:41] |
mircea_popescu | the issue is with berkley db, which was on the way out | [18:41] |
Namworld | THAT'S EXACTLY WHAT I'M FUCKING CLAIMING THAT THE ISSUE AIN'T ON .8! | [18:42] |
jborkl_ | people were all up in arms about having 80 to 1000 unconfirmed transactions waiting. with NO testing, people made larger blocks - that broke BDB | [18:42] |
jborkl_ | 800 | [18:42] |

Namworld | >.< | [18:42] |
mircea_popescu | yes well, you went about it in a broken way. | [18:43] |
Namworld | I'm talking about people making such claims... not about me making the same claims =/ | [18:43] |
jborkl_ | It could have been handled and implemented properly | [18:44] |
mircea_popescu | [18:44] | |
Namworld | @smickles: some people even claimed they sticked to an old version specially because of potential such issues with new versions when .8 wasn't the source of the problem. If they had switched it would have been an non-issue. We've reverted to accomodate the bug in .7 and not to leave people behind. | [18:44] |
jborkl_ | .8 should be used, but we are holding back so poor people with shitty connections and shitty hardware can still be here | [18:45] |
Namworld | mircea: I was referring to testing of .8 alone. I'm made an omission in it. I've been trying to correct myself for like the last few minutes =/ | [18:46] |

MJR_ | lol, you know people can run either version and change the size of blocks they can accept or mine | [18:47] |
mircea_popescu | MJR_ not accept. just mine. | [18:47] |
imsaguy | .. | [18:47] |
ThickAsThieves | so good http://2mellomakes.bandcamp.com/album/chrono-jigga | [18:47] |
imsaguy | the problems is that other people accepted it | [18:47] |
imsaguy | and then it got mined in | [18:47] |
Namworld | I hate it when I forget something in a sentence and I'm getting argued against for 10 minutes when I have the same point of view as the one arguing against me. | [18:47] |
imsaguy | so even if you didn't allow it, someone else did | [18:47] |

mircea_popescu | Namworld does it happen often ? | [18:47] |
imsaguy | mircea_popescu: Namworld is usually arguing with himself. | [18:48] |
Namworld | That's new. I don't recall that. | [18:48] |
* | Jackmaninov has quit (Remote host closed the connection) | [18:48] |
Namworld | No. Maybe every month or the other. | [18:48] |
jborkl_ | They have identified it as .BDB has a limit and can be broken. .8 does not have a limit and seems fine. Lets move back to the broken | [18:48] |
mircea_popescu | i enjoy arguing with him mostly because he seems to go about things in a totally different way than anyone else | [18:48] |
Namworld | When typing fast. | [18:48] |
mircea_popescu | which is a great way to become a laughingstock, sure, but also a great way to find obscure bugs. | [18:49] |
Namworld | Actually I find you go about things in a different way than anyone else... | [18:49] |
mircea_popescu | of course i do. | [18:50] |
MJR_ | can't you change your code in .7 to accept larger blocks? | [18:50] |
imsaguy | no | [18:50] |
imsaguy | its bdb | [18:50] |
imsaguy | .7 can already accept larger blocks | [18:50] |
imsaguy | bdb can't handle the locking | [18:50] |
imsaguy | too many tx in the block | [18:50] |
Namworld | Almost all misunderstandings on Bitcoin IRC are with you. I usually go about quite well with almost everyone else. | [18:50] |
mircea_popescu | Namworld almost everyone else doesn't have much to say. | [18:50] |
MJR_ | ah I see | [18:51] |
imsaguy | I'm glad I'm not almost everyone else | [18:51] |
imsaguy | I have a shitton to say | [18:51] |

Namworld | I think you are very literal on what sentences mean and interpret as little as possible. You avoid making too many inferences during a conversation so even small omissions can result in misunderstandings. | [18:52] |
imsaguy | MJR_: they didn't have to | [18:52] |
mircea_popescu | Namworld certainly. this way misunderstandings are found early. | [18:52] |

jborkl_ | I like Death and Taxes response | [18:58] |

ThickAsThieves | planning to double spend? | [19:00] |
mircea_popescu | Namworld you're proceeding on the wrong path. | [19:00] |
mircea_popescu | that's not how this works, "o, what bad stuff could happen?" | [19:00] |
jborkl_ | Well, first of all they need to plan the change sooner than later | [19:01] |
Namworld | No, I mean malicious stuff from knowing ahead of time about a fork. | [19:01] |
Namworld | Other than double-spend attacks | [19:01] |
mircea_popescu | how would i know ? | [19:01] |
mircea_popescu | we'll find out if we're unfortunate enough. | [19:02] |
Namworld | But really, merchants/miners can plan ahead if they know. It's better if it's known in advance than not. | [19:02] |
mircea_popescu | even if we don't know that doesn't make the issue ok. | [19:02] |
benkay | ra ra go devbs | [19:02] |
mircea_popescu | knowing in advance there will have to be a hard fork is a weakness of the system. | [19:02] |
mircea_popescu | it may be reduced rto almost no cost, maybe | [19:02] |

benkay | what is mpexlag calculating? | [19:04] |
Namworld | MtGox is pretty much constently lagging. | [19:04] |
mircea_popescu | the lag to talk to mpex, through a remote and a local proxy | [19:04] |
* | Guest85658 is now known as scrybe | [19:04] |
benkay | to the order-parsing system? | [19:04] |
mircea_popescu | benkay the bot just measures the proxy response | [19:05] |
ThickAsThieves | so i know they me seem ignorant, but just thinking out loud, is there not a way to make the bitcoin software part of the blockchain itself? | [19:05] |
benkay | so to web server. | [19:05] |
ThickAsThieves | to allow propagation of new versions? | [19:05] |
mircea_popescu | it takes .11 seconds for an order to go from bot to remote proxy -> to local proxy -> to trade engine and back | [19:05] |
benkay | oh okay | [19:05] |
mircea_popescu | no that's not correct. | [19:06] |
mircea_popescu | it takes .11 seconds for an order to go from bot to remote proxy -> to local proxy and back | [19:06] |
mircea_popescu | you can't measure the trade engine from outside | [19:06] |
benkay | what kind of volume would your trade engine have to see before it started lagging? | [19:06] |
mircea_popescu | benkay i've seen > 10 orders per second irl | [19:07] |
mircea_popescu | i've seen > 100 on testnet with the future config | [19:07] |
benkay | *grins* | [19:07] |
benkay | assuming you don't mean btc testnet? | [19:07] |
mircea_popescu | (this has to be sustained at that level for an hour or so for things to start feeling it) | [19:08] |
mircea_popescu | benkay no, my own. btc don't enter into it | [19:08] |
smickles | benkay: i could have it place an order, to test, but the problem would be cancelling that order later | [19:08] |
benkay | *nods* | [19:08] |
mircea_popescu | mpex could trade on beenz if i wanted to, it's completely btc agnostic. | [19:08] |
benkay | i get it man i get it | [19:08] |
mircea_popescu | smickles actually the expansion on that is | [19:08] |
benkay | namespace conflict | [19:08] |
benkay | just resolving | [19:08] |
smickles | mircea_popescu: would a better measure be sending a bunk order? | [19:09] |
mircea_popescu | once i get the rest online, can you measure the lag for the entire $proxies list ? | [19:09] |
mircea_popescu | smickles i think it's a fine measure as it is really. | [19:09] |
smickles | i suppose i could | [19:09] |
mircea_popescu | the way mpex works you get the trade engine lag printed rioght on each stat | [19:09] |

pigeons | today I downloaded .7 and have been patiently waiting for my blockchain to download, im not sure if I will continue refunds or just buy a big crack rock and smoke it in a cave some where but I am totally offended by this scammer tag | [20:17] |
mircea_popescu | you got a scammer tag ?! | [20:18] |
pigeons | tom | [20:18] |
mircea_popescu | lol totally offended okay. | [20:19] |
pigeons | https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=143496.msg1614693#msg1614693 | [20:19] |
mircea_popescu | so he couldn't do refunds all through february because the devs borked transition to .9 | [20:19] |
pigeons | yeah | [20:19] |
mircea_popescu | .8*. in march. | [20:19] |
pigeons | "if I was a scammer I could be living it up easy some place warm instead of braving the same upstate new york winters I have been for 30+ years" | [20:20] |

pigeons | you can configure it to use more locks, so far that seems to work just uses a lot more ram but works | [20:24] |
mircea_popescu | the proof of something awful's general cluelessness/irrelevance is the low level mock articles they're pushing out. | [20:25] |
mircea_popescu | there's material here to scathe. | [20:25] |
mod6 | yeah BDB has been a thorn in dev's side for a decade. but sounds like this time they forgot about a landmine they already stepped on once before. | [20:26] |
mircea_popescu | for people into sdice graphs : https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=80312.msg1614936#msg1614936 | [20:27] |
mircea_popescu | mod6 bring me up to speed, what exactly is the objection ? it is widely deployed and consequently well debugged by now | [20:27] |
mod6 | BTC needs a CVE or something or some sort of post mortum. | [20:27] |
assbot | [HAVELOCK] [SDICE] 5 @ 0.57575758 = 2.8788 BTC [-] | [20:28] |
mircea_popescu | http://i.imgur.com/HzcprPZ.png | [20:29] |
mircea_popescu | this particularly is illustrative. | [20:29] |
mod6 | mircea_popescu: its not really an objection. | [20:30] |
mod6 | its just something to be cautious of | [20:30] |
mircea_popescu | ya but i mean, why ? | [20:30] |
mod6 | it escapes me dude | [20:31] |
mod6 | its been too long | [20:31] |
mircea_popescu | lol kk | [20:31] |
mod6 | so many problems over the years | [20:31] |
mircea_popescu | just trying to get smarter over here :p | [20:31] |
mod6 | i couldn't possibly remember them all | [20:31] |
mod6 | im just depressed about this shit | [20:31] |
mircea_popescu | i imagine a number of people are. | [20:31] |
mod6 | i was thinking about the gox issue... | [20:33] |
mod6 | and perhaps what we need is something like rootservers for fiat->btc exchanges | [20:33] |
mircea_popescu | what are those ? | [20:34] |
mod6 | dns has root servers worldwide to resolve requests. thinking that maybe btc could do well to have like 10-13 worldwide exchanges all independant of eachother. | [20:35] |
MJR_ | like DNS ? | [20:35] |
mod6 | not that all the code should be the same. | [20:35] |
MJR_ | but also...those root servers have children | [20:36] |
pizzaman1337 | kakobrekla wants something like the way fx is setup | [20:36] |
mod6 | root servers don't keep the same code either, not exactly anyway, this way it prevents a simutaious attack against all | [20:36] |
mircea_popescu | mod6 it would be good to have many exchanges, but there's problems with getting that to work in p[ractice | [20:36] |
mircea_popescu | because exchanges concentrate liquidity and people chase liquidity | [20:36] |
mod6 | this will help distrbute the load of exchange, and then btc wont have 1 place to look for price signals. | [20:36] |
MJR_ | well, one thing is that instant settlement is going to be harder and harder to scale | [20:36] |
mircea_popescu | personally i think the solution is fixing, but | [20:37] |
mircea_popescu | few people involved actually have enough finance knowledge to get it going yet. | [20:37] |

[20:38] |
mod6 | and fixing this block size thing is kinda crazy. its like you know when you get a UDP request to your DNS server and the reply from the Zone is > than the max size of UDP, it rolls over to tcp | [20:38] |
MJR_ | well, again I think that could happen on a larger scale... | [20:39] |
pgp | credit lines between exchanges to allow cross exchange arb would be an important start... | [20:39] |
MJR_ | yes exactly | [20:39] |
mod6 | i don't think im smart enough for this stuff. | [20:39] |
MJR_ | pgp: again instant settlement is not sustainable | [20:40] |
kakobrekla | the first important step, realizing that. | [20:40] |
pgp | this would also require something akin to DTCC (depositiory trust clearing corp) where every exchange is a member and keeps money on deposit... | [20:40] |
MJR_ | or even wise...since cold storage == instant | [20:40] |
mircea_popescu | pgp that could easily be implemented using the mpex push for isntance | [20:41] |
mircea_popescu | or independently, but pgp is a good solution to keep it safe. | [20:41] |
pgp | indeed | [20:41] |
mircea_popescu | problem is every exchange wants to act as if in a vacuum, because | [20:41] |
mircea_popescu | they perceive they lack any distinguishing features | [20:41] |
kakobrekla | the problem is exchange ops are retarded | [20:41] |
* | molec has quit (Ping timeout: 248 seconds) | [20:41] |
mircea_popescu | kakobrekla basically. | [20:42] |

* | sgornick has quit (Ping timeout: 255 seconds) | [20:43] |
mod6 | :( | [20:43] |
pgp | yes - with the exception of bitfloor, it doesn't seem that these exchanges are run by anyone familiar with how "real" exchanges (and clearing operations) actually work... | [20:43] |
kakobrekla | bitlol | [20:43] |
mod6 | i got trolled so hard by my gf for this shit yesterday | [20:43] |
MJR_ | so you need people who are tech AND finance savvy | [20:43] |
kakobrekla | guy got fucked a comple of times no? | [20:43] |
MJR_ | he did | [20:43] |
mod6 | we're the laughing stock | [20:43] |
kakobrekla | over confidend | [20:43] |
kakobrekla | nt | [20:43] |
mircea_popescu | pgp bitfloor, the guys currently owinfg like 900x what they'll ever make ? | [20:43] |
MJR_ | well...last I checked there was only one exchange that hasn't been hacked | [20:44] |
pizzaman1337 | so what is the "proper" way to run an exchange? where can I read about this? | [20:44] |
kakobrekla | The book of Kako | [20:44] |
kakobrekla | Kako accually means how | [20:44] |
mircea_popescu | pizzaman1337 this ain't knitting we're discussiong here man. | [20:44] |
kakobrekla | so it makes sense. | [20:44] |
MJR_ | well, paranoia does not an efficient market make | [20:44] |
kakobrekla | lol mp | [20:44] |
mircea_popescu | you read about it in school, which costs dough | [20:44] |

mircea_popescu | pizzaman1337 no but srsly, this is the sort of thing people pay in the 100's of k's for, | [20:45] |
mircea_popescu | it's not exactly "go to wikipedia" sort of thing | [20:45] |
MJR_ | it is pretty sad that the biggest exchange can't handle orders in less than 5 min | [20:46] |
pizzaman1337 | well, there must be some info on it somewhere that I could get access too | [20:46] |
mircea_popescu | MJR_ mpex doesn't do fiat tho, so it's kinda moot for this problem | [20:46] |
kakobrekla | s/5min/30min | [20:46] |
MJR_ | don't know of anyone getting hacked for fiat | [20:46] |
pigeons | heh | [20:46] |
pigeons | no? | [20:46] |
mircea_popescu | what's sad is that they take ~5k a month in hardware costs to process 8k trades in 30 minutes | [20:46] |
pigeons | look harder | [20:46] |
mircea_popescu | if we scale this liniarly we discover it'd cost more than it's worth to have ti trade | [20:46] |
MJR_ | I meant the bitcoin exchanges | [20:47] |
pigeons | yes | [20:47] |
pgp | for starters, most all exchanges today pay you to add liquidity to their book - the so called "maker-taker" fee model. | [20:47] |
MJR_ | exactly what pgp said | [20:47] |
mircea_popescu | pgp the reason is they're mixing bizdev with the fee schedule. | [20:48] |
pigeons | mjr_ where have you been? bitininstant lost usd a few days ago | [20:48] |
pigeons | what about bitcoinica? what about every single one? | [20:48] |
MJR_ | ... | [20:48] |
MJR_ | they stole usd from the servers | [20:49] |
MJR_ | ? | [20:49] |
pigeons | yes | [20:49] |
pgp | moreover, because like asset exchanges belong to the same "clearing clubs", they can route orders to one another to ensure "best execution" for their customers (while, of course, charging for that convenience)... | [20:49] |
mircea_popescu | yeah ? | [20:49] |

MJR_ | front page hackers used DNS to steal 12000 worth of BITCOINS | [20:50] |
pigeons | mircea_popescu: usd | [20:50] |
mircea_popescu | um | [20:50] |
mircea_popescu | usure ? cause i wrote about this and iirc shrem was saying btc | [20:50] |
pigeons | via paypal from vircurex | [20:50] |
mircea_popescu | i'll add it to research list cause wtf. | [20:51] |
pgp | they weren't using two factor auth with that exchange... | [20:51] |
pizzaman1337 | http://blog.bitinstant.com/blog/2013/3/4/events-of-friday-bitinstant-back-online.html | [20:51] |
pizzaman1337 | "Overall, due to major choke points and redundancies in our system, the hacker was only able to walk away with $12,480 USD in BTC, and send them in 3 installments of 333 BTC to bitcoin addresses." | [20:51] |

pgp | you can lead a horse to water | [20:51] |

* | molec (~molecular@e177130063.adsl.alicedsl.de) has joined #bitcoin-assets | [20:55] |
MJR_ | anyway I think there is a ton of room for competition to mt gox | [20:55] |
mod6 | yeah | [20:56] |
mod6 | there needs to be at least 3 | [20:56] |
mod6 | all independant of eachother that aren't scams | [20:56] |
MJR_ | but even better opportunity for someone to route flow between exchanges | [20:56] |
MJR_ | lol, not being scams is key | [20:57] |
mod6 | and security | [20:57] |
mod6 | if they were modeled after mpex, that'd be a start | [20:57] |
MJR_ | I really think a gpg based order system would be nice | [20:57] |
mod6 | not the SAME code, but similar to avoid attacks upon a weakness found in one | [20:57] |
mod6 | similar to rootservers | [20:58] |
MJR_ | I agree | [20:58] |
mircea_popescu | mod6 one of the key reasons why i keep the code closed. | [20:58] |
mod6 | *nod* | [20:58] |
mircea_popescu | people would just mindlessly replicate it (see bitfinex) then we'll be well fucked | [20:58] |
MJR_ | but also...I really think node and branch will be needed | [20:58] |
mod6 | and really... the UDP (TCP when needed) is a model that the guys should be looking at to solve this blocksize issue | [20:58] |
mircea_popescu | in a sense mpex is constructed exactly opposite of how bitcoin is constructed. | [20:59] |
mod6 | any thoughts on that? anyone know what I'm referring to? | [20:59] |
mircea_popescu | keep the specification open and the implementation proprietary | [20:59] |
mircea_popescu | versus the keep the specification equal to the unreadable codebase. | [20:59] |
MJR_ | know exactly what you are talking about | [20:59] |
jcpham | you access mpex through open standards | [20:59] |
MJR_ | I wrote a program to monitor how often we need to fail over to TCp for our data feeds | [20:59] |
jcpham | how it works is not your concern | [20:59] |
mircea_popescu | mod6 originally i thought it was udp p2p | [21:00] |
jcpham | unicorns are definitely walking in hamster wheels though | [21:00] |
mircea_popescu | http://zgp.org/pipermail/p2p-hackers/2004-December/002221.html | [21:00] |
mircea_popescu | it is after all 2004s stuff | [21:00] |
mircea_popescu | but apparently... | [21:00] |
MJR_ | I think it's multicast tcp? | [21:00] |
mircea_popescu | MJR_ im not even sure at this point. | [21:01] |
* | mod6 reads | [21:01] |
MJR_ | I think bitcoin-assets is the bleeding edge of the bleeding edge | [21:02] |
jurov | mod6, how would UDP help in blocksize issuie? | [21:03] |
MJR_ | when you think that people on coinbase are probably still in the innovators (before 18%) stage...wow | [21:03] |
pigeons | really? its second to -otc in stupid | [21:03] |
pigeons | all your fancy exchange routing will be done via ripple | [21:04] |
MJR_ | I can't remember your exact quote mircea_popescu but something like "if you want to use crypto currency but don't understand cryptography..." | [21:04] |
mod6 | jurov: not UDP | [21:04] |
mircea_popescu | MJR_ something like that. | [21:04] |
mircea_popescu | pigeons why isn't it now ? | [21:05] |
mod6 | jurov: we can learn a thing or two, perhaps, about how DNS solves the issue. UDP is meant to be fast, and arbitrarily large since forward/reverse zones can contain an large amount of entries. | [21:05] |
assbot | [BTCTC] [B.YABMC] 1 @ 0.00755 BTC [+] | [21:05] |
mircea_popescu | mod6 of course, the blockszie issue wasn't hitting the transport layer | [21:05] |
MJR_ | I think a central clearing corp, that only needs to transfer the diff between exchanges will be the best way | [21:05] |
mircea_popescu | MJR_ except on the day it gets attacked. | [21:06] |
mircea_popescu | i don't even mean government necessarily. | [21:06] |
mircea_popescu | look what happened in ny when the clearing corp got flooded | [21:06] |
mod6 | but when the size of UDP gets over 65,535 bytes (need to double check), it simply converts it to TCP and sends it that way. something can be learned from this, nothing more. | [21:06] |
pigeons | mircea_popescu: cause people are transitioning from doing it via the private standalone django app to the new ripple but it is being done now | [21:06] |
mod6 | im not saying about the transport, or anything | [21:06] |
mod6 | im simply saying, look at how this problem was solved | [21:06] |
MJR_ | true | [21:06] |
mircea_popescu | pigeons on superficial analysis ripple seems just the place where the curerent bitcoindev rats will sucrry to | [21:06] |
mircea_popescu | once they get their altar broken for reals. | [21:06] |
pigeons | yes perhaps, but currency liquidity flowed throug it before and will continue too, | [21:07] |
mod6 | i dunno, i guess i'd have to spend some time in there. and the client needs to be combed through | [21:07] |
mod6 | and hacked | [21:07] |
jurov | mod6, maximal packet size (or MTU) is hard fact baked into ethernet from the beginning, not some broker earlier implementation | [21:07] |
mod6 | slice and dice shit out of there that needs to be replaced. | [21:08] |
jurov | *broken | [21:08] |
mircea_popescu | mod6 actually once you're done with the iphone app, a very good use of someone's time is to go through the codebase and summarize it | [21:08] |
mircea_popescu | that;s usually a good step towards specification. | [21:08] |
MJR_ | mircea_popescu: what iphone app? | [21:08] |
mod6 | i never wanted to touch bitcoin's client or anything else because the #bitcoin-dev is filled with pompus retards | [21:08] |

jurov | mircea_popescu one thing i don't understand, you aren't going to hire any devs yourself cause it isn't worth the conflict and drama? | [22:11] |
jurov | what do you plan to do, then? | [22:11] |
mircea_popescu | jurov atm the plan ios to push for spec | [22:11] |
mod6 | it shouldn't be up to one dude to pay for all this shit... | [22:11] |
mircea_popescu | and ideally remove the current devteam's license to release new clients. | [22:11] |
mircea_popescu | past this point. | [22:11] |
jurov | and who will do the spec? have any allies to do it together? | [22:12] |
mircea_popescu | then once we have spec they can fix their fucked codebase and release a proper client | [22:12] |
mircea_popescu | jurov : perhaps. one sec | [22:12] |

mircea_popescu | jurov anyway, the problem isn't as much the drama, but moreover that a single-source codebase is both non-bitcoiny and suspect. | [22:18] |
mircea_popescu | but i think if we can get one (or ideally multiple) people to summarize the code | [22:18] |
mircea_popescu | we can pretty much derive a spec from there. | [22:18] |
mircea_popescu | this wouldn't take much longer than a few weeks for a first draft, which can then be argued and refined | [22:19] |
mircea_popescu | in my experience any devteam resists such an effort like cats resist washing, because coders love to write but hate having to read code. | [22:19] |
mircea_popescu | hiowever, once it's complete there's a few day's worth of facepalming and going "wait, we are doing W?HAT ?!" | [22:20] |

mircea_popescu | a. i hire someone. well... this opens the political problem of "oh, he's mp's puppet". | [22:24] |

mircea_popescu | + "it's not enough" drama + trying to get the pruize with as little work as possible etc | [22:25] |

mircea_popescu | perhaps. | [22:26] |
jurov | i remember something like with linux and redhat | [22:26] |
mircea_popescu | it's in any case not something i have to call today. | [22:26] |
mircea_popescu | jurov certainly. | [22:26] |
jurov | maybe i'll hire amir taaki.. he'll do gladly for food and shelter | [22:27] |

jurov | mod6 what outer space metaphors are you onto again.... | [22:27] |
mod6 | the best kind | [22:28] |

jurov | *bride | [22:32] |
dub | benkay: houses | [22:32] |
mircea_popescu | jurov she's a little worn i nplaces. | [22:32] |
mircea_popescu | and there's a crack | [22:32] |
mod6 | So, what I'm saying is, I think it's a really good thing to create a spec, and then everyone can punch eachother in the nuts over it until its perfect. This is the way to go. | [22:33] |
mircea_popescu | more like a gash really. | [22:33] |
mircea_popescu | mod6 werd. | [22:33] |
benkay | there will eventually be an incentive for the miners to disregard devsquad | [22:33] |
benkay | in retrospect, i'm a little surprised they didn't this time | [22:33] |
mod6 | I think, at least for myself, every time I had to write a paper, or have written some code; I've gone back the next day or at some later date and done a `wtf?' | [22:34] |
mircea_popescu | benkay exactly. | [22:34] |
benkay | ^^ erryday. | [22:34] |
mod6 | even the other night, i wrote that code quick that worked. i mean, it kinda worked, in the way that it fucked a donkey. | [22:34] |
mircea_popescu | the btcguild people got fucked for ~2k btc because of it. | [22:34] |
mircea_popescu | this keeps up, soon enough idiots will not have the dough to keep going | [22:34] |
mircea_popescu | much like btc finance was cleanned up. | [22:34] |
mod6 | but then you know, you review, you think about it, you make changes and it gets better. | [22:34] |
benkay | it's a painful process | [22:35] |
mircea_popescu | good. | [22:35] |
benkay | dunno if i agree about that. | [22:35] |
jurov | mod6 yea but if you don't painstakingly document it it just won't go past some threshold | [22:35] |
benkay | i don't optimize for pain. | [22:35] |
benkay | rather the opposite. | [22:35] |
mircea_popescu | i do. | [22:35] |
benkay | heh. | [22:35] |
mircea_popescu | it delivers superb results. | [22:35] |
mircea_popescu | the more people are hurt, the better stuff comes out. | [22:35] |
mod6 | i beat dead horses | [22:35] |
Lyspooner | where'd the 2k btc figure come from? | [22:36] |
mod6 | i've said that before. but usually my code works too. | [22:36] |
mod6 | ;] | [22:36] |
jurov | yes bitcoind usually works, too | [22:36] |
mircea_popescu | Lyspooner they lost ~1.2k because the new .8 redownloaded the chain and they autopaid miners submitting as if low diff | [22:36] |
mod6 | haha | [22:36] |
benkay | i optimize for pleasure within my in-group, and i let the rest of the world experience their own mistakes. | [22:36] |
mircea_popescu | they lost a further however much cause of discarded blocks | [22:36] |
Lyspooner | mircea_popescu were they auto-paying miners with coins older than 120 blocks since mined? | [22:37] |
mircea_popescu | yes, the op was quite clear about having lost the 1.2k | [22:37] |
Lyspooner | isn't that the op's fault then? | [22:37] |
mircea_popescu | cause they did what tho ? upgraded ? | [22:37] |
mircea_popescu | sure, it's their fault. | [22:38] |
Lyspooner | anything faster than 120 blocks is the ops fault | [22:38] |
mircea_popescu | because why ? | [22:38] |
Lyspooner | they are paying miners with fresher coins than is safe | [22:38] |
mircea_popescu | i don't think you understand the problem. | [22:38] |
mircea_popescu | as the blockchain was being downloaded, the difficulty was corresponding to very old blocks, ie, very low. | [22:39] |
jurov | Lyspooner pools attract noobs on fast payouts, is that surprising for you? | [22:39] |
mircea_popescu | as miners submitted current work, they were paid for their share of contribution to that low difficulty | [22:39] |
mircea_popescu | ie, very much. | [22:39] |
Lyspooner | maybe i misunderstand mining pools' payouts. but if i do work now, i shouldn't be paid until t+120 | [22:40] |
mircea_popescu | yea well it's not how it works out in practice. | [22:40] |
mircea_popescu | and speaking of that 120... YET MORE MAGIC NUMBERS FUCKING HELL | [22:41] |
Lyspooner | but that's the risk that mining pool ops assume | [22:41] |
jurov | kakobrekla you didn't got doublespended on smpake.com? | [22:41] |
mircea_popescu | Lyspooner not detachedly from the general "trusting devteam" risk | [22:41] |
