assbot: Logged on 24-04-2015 17:25:09; nubbins`: this is like being arrested by
a cop with
a tin badge
davout: on
a completely unrelated note, has anyone here ever had lasik surgery?
trinque: obviously any truism in systems design can be undone by
a particular case
trinque: davout: however, what's wrong with
a before trigger that does precisely that?
davout: trinque: nah, my point was that the rdbms-should-enforce-all-structure approach isn't very sensible, unless you're ok eventuall ending up with
a spelling and grammar checker for your text fields
assbot: Logged on 24-04-2015 16:12:23; mats: i started buying AMZN after it became clear they had intentions of becoming
a USG contractor
Pierre_Rochard: “painted into
a corner” is the phrase that comes to mind
Pierre_Rochard: trinque: I’ve seen this first hand. Unfortunately the reinvention doesn’t happen until problems arise and the sunk costs prevent
a switch to SQL
trinque: davout | well, you, just pushing that to the extreme to show that, even though i hardly ever use it, this unstructured nosql approach sometimes is useful, and isn't *inherently* evil like you seem to imply << there is no such thing as unstructured data, only
a question of how rigorously structured it is, and what is used to enforce that.
davout: ben_vulpes: whichever is included in
a block is frozen in the amber, but it's not necessarily the version that has canonical DER-encoded sigs
funkenstein_: if it is as simple as adding
a SIGtype, that sounds fine but my understanding was there was still some subtleties on the table and gmaxwell said wait 2 years
ben_vulpes: write
a standalone wallet while yer at it :P
ben_vulpes: davout:
a change to block inclusion rules?
ben_vulpes: (entirely aside, in
a fevered moment of sleeplessness on the plane from bsas i looked into ripping out the nonstandard transaction relay blocking stuff)
ben_vulpes: how could there be? it is of necessity
a meatwot thing.
williamdunne: jurov: I designed
a similar-ish system based on
a network of brokerages
danielpbarron: that the network could still accidentally fork over
a bug is the reason we aren't seeing billions and trillions invested into bitcoin
williamdunne: Adlai: We're in agreement there, I'm not suggesting that we're ever to put ourselves in
a position where blocks are huge and no-one is paying. I'm just suggesting that 1mb is no way near enough for bitcoin to be bigger than it is today
williamdunne: Pierre_Rochard: Would it not be preferable to be in
a situation where blocks are routinely filled at low-ish fees.
Adlai: davout: both gavincoin and the bitlicense are clouds on the horizon. some people sell coins for raincoats and umbrellas... though they may be wiser to stick
a wet finger in the air
Pierre_Rochard wishes those advocating for larger block size limit realized the current limit is having _zero_ effect on adoption/price and that will continue to be the case for
a while if not forever
Adlai: let's see what happens in
a halving or two :)
Adlai: bitcoin inflation relative to fiat prices is high enough that it's
a non-issue... atm
assbot: Logged on 21-01-2015 18:35:01; gavinandresen: Pierre_Rochard: if Satoshi hadn’t slapped on
a 1MB blocksize limit, would you be lobbying for
a hardfork now to impose one?

Pierre_Rochard: re msft: “Sales of Office 365 Home and Personal subscriptions were up 35 percent sequentially” <= people can’t afford to “own” office anymore, they rent it one month at
a time
