mircea_popescu: check that out, "TradeBlock serves financial institutions with execution and analysis tools that capitalize on the potential of blockchain technologies."
mircea_popescu: kakobrekla haha is that yours ?
mircea_popescu: built on the basis of what other nodes advertise as txn
mircea_popescu: sturles from my own nodes' estimation of what the "mempool" is currently.
kakobrekla: according to some; http://i.imgur.com/BdJFEc1.png
sturles: Where is this number from? Mine is:
mircea_popescu: for the curious, mempool was as high as 80mb during february, but recently it's ~8 or so.
mircea_popescu: that ~could~ be the explanation, sure.
mircea_popescu: yeah, mempool is low now for some reason, across the board.
mircea_popescu: (obviously because no protocol there is no actual definition of "mempool size" other than rough consensus, but wehartevers)
mircea_popescu: of the ~50mb mempool, that is.
mircea_popescu: ie, 84% of txn in the mempool had a higher priority.
mircea_popescu: in any case, at the time this was discussed in the logs, the miner priority was in the 9th decile, about 16% of the global mempool. ☟︎
mircea_popescu: yeah but for practical reasons doesn't also vary too much, or you get drowned.
kakobrekla: anyway, sturles is giving us his current mempoolminpriority, which doesnt mean it was the same a week ago.
sturles: The transaction has one 3 month old input of 15.898 BTC. This alone may be enough to push the priority high enough.
mircea_popescu: no, sum the product
kakobrekla: and just sum the discrete inputs ages ?
sturles: OK. I don't know anything about the tx in question. How old were the inputs?
mircea_popescu: sturles this one was never 100mn.
sturles: 0 fee tx are thrown out if the priority is lower than what is required. Currently 142186611.6926576.
mircea_popescu: if you recall kakobrekla at the time it was merely broadcast and "not yet included" (in the public version of the blockchain), it had a very low priority.
mircea_popescu: right. by this calculation, the tx in question would not have remained in your pool.
sturles: Standard priority calculations. size of input * age of input for all inputs, then divided by the size of the transaction.
mircea_popescu: and if it's a 0fee tx, thrown out altogether ?
sturles: Which means that every tx with priority below 142186611.6926576 will be thrown out of the priority pool, and into the fee based pool.
mircea_popescu: and how do you calculate the priority ?
mircea_popescu: if there IS a time limit, what is it.
mircea_popescu: sturles if you keep 0fee txn without time limit, you are necessarily running on a machine with infinite ram.
sturles: It doesn't matter if A2 has higher or lower priority than A1. As long as A1 is in my mempool, a tx spending any of A1's inputs will be rejected.
mircea_popescu: so then how does A2 have a lower priority than A1 ?
sturles: I don't have a time limit.
mircea_popescu: so how long is the longest you keep a txn ?
sturles: I don't keep them all. Only the ones with the highest priority.-
kakobrekla: >If you are proposing that you are actually running a node which keeps all 0-fee txn for a week plus, I very much would like to know what machine are you running, and when's the last time you realised what an incredible DoS mechanism this is.
kakobrekla: i asked him to join to answer the questions from qntra
mircea_popescu: give it back to him with !v <contents>
mircea_popescu: you have enough trust, whenever you want to speak here you should pm assbot "!up" and decrypt the dpaste.
assbot: Trust relationship from user assbot to user sturles: Level 1: 0, Level 2: 4 via 4 connections. |http://www.btcalpha.com/wot/trust/?from=assbot&to=sturles | http://www.btcalpha.com/wot/user/sturles/
mircea_popescu: there's no argument to be had with a could.
mircea_popescu: no argument that it ~could~ be a so and so node. all sorts of things could be all sorts of other things. like the moon landing photos could be fake, and so on.
kakobrekla: i find the comment from 'sturle' much more interesting.
mircea_popescu: who knew how fucking deep in the rules of the world this principle is baked
asciilifeform: the solution to toddler-with-machinegun is not moar armour.
mircea_popescu: as usual - centralist power is the enemy of free commerce.
asciilifeform: i can think of 1,001 variations on this theme.
asciilifeform: and say they blacklist anything previously appearing as payout on bb. ☟︎
mircea_popescu: of course large payments remain a problem - not so many double digit btc moving around to an address with the following 4 chars.
mircea_popescu: as the commenter says, this does nothing for bitcoin, merely for bitbet.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: whichever they happen to dislike.
mircea_popescu: jesus cryptomoney is tough.
mircea_popescu: tho prolly this should have a secret salt also.
mircea_popescu: and yes, publish a sha of the whole list as-is somewhere on page also. so people can then verify at tyhe end.
mircea_popescu: say paid out bets are published as now, but proposed bets only show first 4 chars of the address, and only first two digits of the payment. except if under 0.01 it's just replaced with D
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: they can still blacklist addrs
mircea_popescu: listen kakobrekla can we modify the way bitbet works to actually satisfy this ? something like
mircea_popescu: so basically, yeah bla bla, miners can force "either doublepay or never pay" dilemma, but ~not on everyone~. only on derps who, like mp, actually publish the whole story.
mircea_popescu: kakobrekla you seen this ?
mircea_popescu: no but on second pass this is actually correct, isn't it. ~I~ have been breaking the protocol with that design, indiscutably.
assbot: Logged on 03-03-2016 15:19:06; mircea_popescu: jurov is it actually the js interpreter that takes up the bulk of that ?
asciilifeform: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=03-03-2016#1420894 << the thing is larger than just about any os, possibly even microshit's, and who the fuck knows or whether it is even knowable. ☝︎
asciilifeform: i was wondering about that ^
mircea_popescu: which one of you has the miserably poor taste of impersonating the dead woman ?
assbot: Logged on 03-03-2016 15:17:37; jurov: just for the record, there are several projects built on top of llvm (cling,clang,clasp) promising C++ interpretation and easy interop with lisp. i tried to build and use these, not one succeeded and they are so behemoth so any analysis of the problem was out of the question
jurov: re: duplicate bugreport.. perhaps i envied you being target of lizard hitler pranks, and imagined myself finally being targeted
mircea_popescu: romanian school has a whole curricula in literature dedicated to making the kiddies cry. this is well and good and the ~only way.
mircea_popescu: let them cry into their fiction books like normal people.
assbot: Logged on 03-03-2016 15:12:24; mircea_popescu: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=03-03-2016#1420794 << certainly makes a very strong argument for beating into a pulp any children found crying in their math books.
asciilifeform: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=03-03-2016#1420876 << many children cry into books, this is normal. but now there is 'advocacy!11111' ☝︎
assbot: Logged on 03-03-2016 15:09:58; mircea_popescu: since you have the profiler right there (do you ?) mind sharing like, the top three things on the stack ?
asciilifeform: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=03-03-2016#1420869 << 1/2 tb of ssd ☝︎
assbot: Logged on 03-03-2016 15:07:13; jurov: asciilifeform: wake me up if you manage to compile chromium in 3G ram. the linker eats 10G. i have 12G here and must log out and terminate most processes and then emerge it.
asciilifeform: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=03-03-2016#1420867 << it's a laptop, i don't care if it takes a week ☝︎
assbot: Logged on 03-03-2016 15:06:36; mircea_popescu: they got one for asciilifeform too : http://news.slashdot.org/comments.pl?sid=8825949&cid=51627895
mircea_popescu: ftr anacam was as close to driving culture as the times and potus aspire to be and occasionally manage.
asciilifeform: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=03-03-2016#1420851 << BingoBoingo if that was you, and it was, you linked to an article of mine that said nothing re: miners... ☝︎
mircea_popescu: jurov dude you trolled me ? i mistook eul- to be a function defined in eulora space pinged DianaComan about it lmao
jurov: such backdoor would be very convenied, dontcha think
jurov: i came around this in course of embedding lisp in eulora client
mircea_popescu: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=03-03-2016#1420812 << cascadia coming to the mp notions of "What is art" i take it ? ☝︎
mircea_popescu: like it or not, the tendons won't give unless you get physical. you can talk yourself hoarse, it dun do anything.
mircea_popescu: chick's tougher than coffin nails, right in there with the she-marine. heck, they still use beatings to this day to loosen the girlies up.
mircea_popescu: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=03-03-2016#1420806 << ironically, the shit they're talking about is some of the harshest, least touchty feely shit out there. ballet, seriously ? have these people EVEN SEEN a ballerina in their life ? ☝︎
jurov: yes, surely all the HTML5 and older(like DOM) functionality
mircea_popescu: jurov is it actually the js interpreter that takes up the bulk of that ? ☟︎
assbot: Logged on 23-02-2016 08:51:15; mircea_popescu: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=23-02-2016#1413406 << basically us "college" chumpatron still experimenting with "what's the lowest qty of candy bar we give the cattle to keep getting the sweet sweet usg funds for them. like, out of the 100k per capita we get in fed funny money, what's the least we could dole out to the maggots in whose name the whole scheme is run ? maybe -100`000 in paper and $
mircea_popescu: centralization of opinion mining being inevitable, given that the problem of university financing is irresolvable. (see for instance http://log.bitcoin-assets.com//?date=23-02-2016#1413495 thread) ☝︎
jurov: so it's prolly the same with chromium's javascript engine
mircea_popescu: "you can have your own opinions, but we want to move from this situation where harvard & mit lied to you about you being smart enough to resolve any real word conondrum 'if you just got the facts [as officially branded facts by harvard and mit]'" to a much more economical "you can have your own opinions just as long as they're what we say they should be".
jurov: just for the record, there are several projects built on top of llvm (cling,clang,clasp) promising C++ interpretation and easy interop with lisp. i tried to build and use these, not one succeeded and they are so behemoth so any analysis of the problem was out of the question ☟︎
mircea_popescu: sort-of trying to chinese cartel the electoral process, pretty much.
mircea_popescu: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=03-03-2016#1420800 << it's not "statistics and citizenship" as anything but "this is what you must believe about statistics to be a citizen". ☝︎
jurov: and i did not profile it, just looked on top output
mircea_popescu: you see jurov, google is next to useless for any purpose that involves having taken algebra II. all it can do is help you build empathy.

mircea_popescu: "Only mathematicians and some engineers actually use advanced math in their day-to-day work, Hacker argues—even the doctors, accountants, and coders of the future shouldn’t have to master abstract math that they’ll never need."
