mircea_popescu: copypaste wouldn'
t advise it tho, highest suicide rate outside of japan.
mircea_popescu: <copypaste> i wouldn'
t, but plenty of people would. the average person in the philippines views foreigners as being smart and better educated than them <<< this happens to also be right.
punkman: in other shipping mysteries, I ordered some widget from China in August I think, there was a non-working tracking no., 45 days later I ask merchant what's up with it, says they were actually out of stock at time of order, didn'

BingoBoingo: <jurov> whether "stratum" protocol fits in head for easy control, that's another question. << A lot of this. I'm imagining and "electrum" that isn'
t actually electrum. i.e. not a big ball of whatever that desperately wants to advertise to the world exactly what it is. basically a different better database client setup. May break down and learn to make code enough to shit one out by 2030.
jurov: i have an old account, unused for ~2 years, don'
t you want it?
mircea_popescu:
http://log.bitcoin-assets.com//?date=07-01-2016#1361875 << you can, if you don'
t care about the risk someone will send you a new payment and miners will rearrange a block so that it goes
t otheir fee. incidentally, this property of the correct design combined with the baseless butthurt of the power rangers over address reuse (in which they simply follow unthinkingly the humours of satoshi) suggests to me that the derp
☝︎ mircea_popescu: <BingoBoingo> ^ Tesla's over << you wouldn'

kakobrekla: > unconfirmed transactions relating to your own wallet addresses are stored not only in the memory pool, but in wallet.dat, so a restart won'
t clear them. To accomplish that, you can start bitcoind with the recently added -zapwallettxes option. This will cause bitcoind to forget all transactions associated to your addresses, and rescan the block chain to reconstruct them. In particular, any unconfirmed transactions will be forgotten and
mircea_popescu: kakobrekla fancy, "use a backup". yes, i have backups. and how the fuck do i identify which payments of the HUGE batch of bitbet payments for end of year were made and which weren'
t, so i don'
t end up doublepaying ?
pete_dushenski: reliant robin is an excellent example of bitcoin as it works today : looks to have the right parts but has them in the wrong order and as a result it doesn'
t quite work as intended. compare this with the morgan 3-wheeler, which is perhaps where trb is headed, which has the same parts, but not welded together by apes.
kakobrekla:
T is relevant because unconfirmed coins on the change address are ok to be sent.
mircea_popescu:
T is irrelevant for this discussion. i send btc to address x. this confirms. what
t it has does not matter. i send btc from address x. this fails to be included.
mircea_popescu: if it explains the behaviour or not isn'
t really all that germane.
jurov: pity they don'
t make guns (but who knows)

t much better, watch is not cool. so : peak smartphone is a reality
jurov: and i can understand the blockexplorers don'
t want to fill their database with invalid txen
thestringpuller: when you push to blockr.io it detects a bad input and says "I won'
t relay this"
thestringpuller: jurov: well from the explorers standpoint blockcypher doesn'
t care is just saying "this tx is borked look at these double spent-like errors" and then the story continues
thestringpuller: i'll check it out in a second (don'
t have a full node at disposal atm)
pete_dushenski: like retirees who can'
t say no to that 15 cent dividend
pete_dushenski: if not better, seeing as how white kids are used to lavish finished basements all to themselves and aren'
