BingoBongo: The problem isn't faster the problem is scalability. SatoshiDice for all I defended it against, with BDB's locking bahavior killed BDB as a bitcoin dependency
BingoBongo: it is just a Google doohickey, but it works better and the license is right
BingoBongo: There's a lot of quirks.
BingoBongo: Really they need to kill BDB with fire. There is no other way. Gavin doesn't have a way to maintain BDB compatibility in LevelDB.

BingoBongo: If your trustee thinks you drink like a certain FPGA shilling Tom they just assume you'll end up in the Salvation Army shelter anyway
BingoBongo: Maybe I'm reading wrong which wouldn't be the first time, but it seems like a fair way to separate idiots from their coin.
BingoBongo: I'm just trying to figure out how little reserves a "prediction market" needs to really operate...
BingoBongo: Today in a moment of weakness I was tempted to register on the WOT and start cloning the late Intrade so I could supply idiots with the Bucketshop that they need

mircea_popescu: this makes for a very dysfunctional lord of the flies environment
grubles: itll just be a fork

kakobrekla: I have run and started commodity exchanges. I am currently running one and would like to apply our technology and knowledge to bit coin. There is a decent possibility we may be able to list futures and other derivatives around BTC and LTC. Please whitelist me.
mircea_popescu: i am considering expanding it to work both ways and fully identify trades but there's also performance issues to consider and a whole keboodle.
mircea_popescu: the solution basically allows the person putting in the order to compute a hash of it and then identify it in their execution reports.
mircea_popescu: benkay superficially it is not a problem, but on the old system (before the previous upgrade) there existed windows of a few minutes between when the trade engine executed and when the web proxies reported.
coingenuity: mircea_popescu: as far as i'm concerned, there's nothing of note to read there anyway... just a bunch of bitcoin-tabloid type topics bout nothing :/
benkay: and b) not really a question but this is a pain point for people? just wait ten seconds for order id to get returned.
benkay: so a) what is new method
benkay: It doesn’t currently even know what id that order will receive in the trade engine, which is even more inconvenient for brokers that handle multiple customer accounts (but we’re working on a way to significantly mitigate this, which will be the next major update barring exigent necessity).
benkay: and how does that manifest as a significant pain point? i haven't noticed a significant lag between when people post orders and when the pastebin goes up
dub: my buddy has a good excuse 'I don't eat anything that has to shit'
dub: paid $1500 for a table of 5 a little while ago, with plenty of booze

LameCoin-: an asian manufacturer has to produce a months worth+ of low end trinkets
LameCoin-: when mercedes builds a 100k vehicle in a day
BitHub: its true, its a good trick
mircea_popescu: LameCoin- because by "worldwide" you count a pool of 2-300mn people nobody cares abnout.
mircea_popescu: the problem seems to be you're mingling a lot of assumptions crafted for comfort into your estimations.
mircea_popescu: "the west" is a bit player.
dub: jurov: it'd require a fork yea
mircea_popescu: but that's a minor point comparing to the other hairs sticking out of the code
LameCoin-: the current world has a base money supply of about 4 trillion
LameCoin-: 14k per coin is enough to support a 50 trillion dollar global economy assuming everyone uses nothing but bitcoin
