wyrdmantis: mircea_popescu yeah it will be just
a translation service
mircea_popescu: wyrdmantis well, maybe, but if them people don't speak english they'll have
a hard time understanding.
chetty: blogs are always
a good idea
wyrdmantis: seems that i have to learn doing something useful for the WoT. I think what i know is not enough. I'm thinking to open
a blog in Italian about my first steps in b-
a, so people in italy can understand what is happening. Do you think it's
a good idea?
RagnarDanneskjol: Yes, I still rock
a CRT 2nd screen for nostalgia & to help accelerate global warming
mircea_popescu: srsly, it's not
a huge rush, it's been waiting for the proper maker/maintainer for monthgs,.
MolokoDeck: ok, I'm not
a big fan of races and bounties, but understood.
MolokoDeck: ok. my feeling about it now is doable. timescale more than
a few weeks, adjustment of code until everyone's satsified, then some committment to maintain or modify it if desirable.
MolokoDeck: sure,
a non-mining/non-blockchain-manitaining client.
mircea_popescu: MolokoDeck to validate
a hash has to be signed by someone in assbot's l2
MolokoDeck: looking at
a case where anyone can put
a hash on the blockchain and present
a document block with that hash.
BingoBoingo: MolokoDeck: If you have
a good source of entropy for nonces, electrum has
a nice CLI, this thing prolly ought to be connected to
a private electrum server though if going for that over bitcoind
MolokoDeck: is this for everyone in the world to use, or only for
a select community of presumable trusted parties?
MolokoDeck: anyway, I think you've settled my question about the feasibility/non-feasibility of spoofing
a single hash.
MolokoDeck: I was wondering about that. I'm not clear on how much influence
a nonce has on hash outcomes. so that explains that question.
MolokoDeck: also in php one would either have to use
a package or use system calls to do the encryption.
mircea_popescu: you'd need
a nonce as large as the keyspace of the hash
MolokoDeck: doable in php or python. php has
a fairly bad reputation in cryptocurrency lately. And in computer science for different reasons (you can't predict the outcome of certain operations).
MolokoDeck: I'm not sure there's
a quantum algorith for SHA256 that's particularly leveraged, but there are supposedly turing-complete quantum gate computers that could accellerate that. Let's not go into that.
BigBitz: heh, I may be clueless, but I don't think
a miner can influence the hash value of the clock.
MolokoDeck: since the hash is inserted as
a comment in the blockchain, I think one might be able to create bogus blocks that have the same has by inserting
a salt and mining
a single hash here.
MolokoDeck: the block of documents gets cryptosigned with
a hash of the documents inside. That hash gets sent to the blockchain. The other validation (initial validation) is of the cryptosignature on each document. The documents have to be legit before they go into the bundle that get's logged and recorded permenently as
a hash on the blockchain.
MolokoDeck: "2. all the valid deeds received in
a specified interval, say 512 seconds, are appended together, hashed, and the resulting hash is inserted into
a bitcoin transaction, which becomes part of the bitcoin blocchain."
MolokoDeck: also requires the bot to have
a wallet.
MolokoDeck: insertion of validation hash onto the bitcoin block chain with
a transaction: requires use of the bitcoind API or connection to the bitcoin mining network.
MolokoDeck: authentication test from
a single-point trusted registry.
MolokoDeck: so, I'm still reviewing the bitcoin-assets log related to
a bot project involving posting and cryptosigning cryptodocuments.. or something to that effect.
mircea_popescu: ben_vulpes nope. i'm willing to pay
a pittance to take over code already written and not making
a penny.
ben_vulpes: <mircea_popescu> make
a connection. <<
http://survantjames.com does objective-c whatever, provided you're willing to pay fiat objective-c rates for people who actually know what they're doing.
mike_c: I saw :) i disagree with
a couple points, but
a counter-rebuttal.. too meta
mircea_popescu: anyway, remember all the knowitalls that explained how unfair
a bet it was, right then ? because OBIVOUSLY etc.
mike_c: woohoo warren. running like
a man in his 70's.
BingoBoingo: dreamstring: blogs and bash are
a quicker primer, logs take
a while
BingoBoingo: dreamstring: I'm kind of expecting that if you read you can have
a few thousand words on why it was broken
dreamstring: Oh that was
a sad sad attempt at what I thought would be
a two second plug
mike_c: did somebody hang
a sign somewhere saying b-
a is looking for work?
kakobrekla: i guess the real question is - they have
a logo yet?
kakobrekla: up him if you intend to have
a convo btw.
BingoBoingo: <dreamstring> the reality is everyone has
a smart phone, thats how the gov wants it. well use that and give everyone
a smart phone
a new start to
a currency connected to everyone with
a smart phone... which is everyone in the world. << I haven't had one in years
dreamstring: the reality is everyone has
a smart phone, thats how the gov wants it. well use that and give everyone
a smart phone
a new start to
a currency connected to everyone with
a smart phone... which is everyone in the world.
dreamstring: im not trying to argue, i think i have
a very valid plan of attack
dreamstring: people who dont want smart phones are living in the past, why should the btc community care about them anyway, and the VM farming i already created
a verifciation system that needs
a hardware id and device verification to use
dreamstring: and then based on how you use your money that you are distributed, well the smart use it well/open their own stores on the market, the poor just get paid for having
a phone
BingoBoingo: <dreamstring> but that still ads to the rich get richer kinda aspect bitcoin is fighting against << Who said this is
a part of Bitcoin, Bitcoin fights the stupid getting richer...
dreamstring: and
a global decentralized trading platform on every phone through
a centralized security outlet
BingoBoingo: And what does that offer anyone who has money that could give such
a currency value?
dreamstring: in theory the hashrate doesnt mean anything besides securing from
a 51% and determining who contributed what amount of work
dreamstring: Nothing besides the fact that by using
a PoW/PoS hybrid you can group people into different teir groups based on their cell phones to make sure everyone is getting the same distribution of the currency.
dreamstring: While I have
a voice, I'd like to put out for any developers interested in
a possible position in
a start up based around creating
a mobile mining oriented cryptocurrency. The company is the Dreamstring platform, aiming to create
a crypto that distributes supply and time using the fibonacci, as well as creating an equal distribution to each cellular phone user to download the mobile application.
BingoBoingo: Staff has now informed me of what
a Kardashian is. I'm only left with more questions.
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: lol, there's
a read between the lines situation in posting those now
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu> <decimation> this goes to my earlier point about
a split in the Dem. party. it's not like the usg elite overlords act in their interest << markov chains have no self interest. << Vexual seems to
mircea_popescu: <decimation> this goes to my earlier point about

BingoBoingo: ’s quite good enough for me. Fuck the instruments, as great as they are : they’ll make their own, and it’ll be the same anyway, because there’s exactly one way to make
a great piece of lab equipment. The alternatives are only there to confound the issues. See, teh BBC got it right after all >D"
BingoBoingo: "Not everyone’s an entrepreneur, either. Some kids, poor kids, “urban” kids are scholars, in nucet. They may not have my rare and expensive equipment, sure. But whether the BBC does manage to agree that climate pseudo-science should be promoted as “the only alternative” or not, my hopes rest with
a bunch of inner city negroes. No matter what, these kids will still carry through the world the ability to reason, and that
RagnarDanneskjol: speaking of - I've been on that Jason guy to commit to timeframe - sounds wishywashy so I'm gonna find
a few backups and just send them the log so you dont have to repeat everything
decimation: this Ferguson thing is trying to be
a theater but no one knows the script
BingoBoingo: Maybe I should have brought
a machete to demonstrate?
BingoBoingo: Once I even held
a sign on the street corner for
a while said "RUF is for the People" and none of the other people had
a concrete idea of what RUF was or where they operated...
decimation: this goes to my earlier point about
a split in the Dem. party. it's not like the usg elite overlords act in their interest
decimation: plus I'm certain that sighting such
a gadget flying around would be
a pretext to crack down on something else
decimation: I wonder if this will lead to
a cleavage between the poor brown power base of the elites who run the inner party?
RagnarDanneskjol: mircea_popescu - sure, those guys are dime
a dozen. I can find almost any spec you throw at me - the more detailed & complex the better. Its kind of nice cause I work in
a female dominated industry (HR) so I tend to gravitate all the jobs noone else can fill
RagnarDanneskjol: @ mrb9200 - pls email me
a job order to admin@bitrecruiter.com - I locate developers for this sort of thing. most of them are scoundrels & losers just fyi
ben_vulpes: i met
a guy today who's doing supercap batteries
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: I drank with
a toad I found in the back yard yesterday...
gribble: thickasthieves was last seen in #bitcoin-assets 5 days, 10 hours, 20 minutes, and 7 seconds ago: <thickasthieves> who uses
a ripped condom tho?
mbr9200: i had
a goldfish once, it jumped out of its bowl
mbr9200: Oh, cool.
A cofounder and I came up with
a very interesting altcoin idea. I wrote the white papers for it, got
a web dev guy, just looking for
a coin dev if anyone is able. I also appreciate the large number of people on this chat, good stuff.
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: That could have been
a new one.
BingoBoingo: mbr9200: Assbot is
a bot, gifted to us by kakobrekla in his trememdous benevolence
decimation: assbot is
a robot that manages channel moderation
decimation: mike_c: there's
a guy talking on 7125 khz (set LSB mode)
BingoBoingo: Local TV channels still on "regularly scheduled programming" guess that is
a sign of something
decimation: unless one of them was
a daughter who embarrassed his father?
decimation: no the median ham is
a ossified 50-70 year old male who rarely has anything interesting to say
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: That could be
a charity, 19 year old Cali girls on 10 meters
mircea_popescu: <decimation> I'm not sure how you are going to make money selling to the democratic police when the surplus war material is "free" << love will find
a way.
decimation: BingoBoingo: yeah I'm aware, but I was wondering if someone had
a live gateway somewhere
