mircea_popescu: because no fucking laywer to date has yet asked a question he didn'
t know the answer to
trinque: wouldn'
t be lame to do it as described
jurov: i just wanted to point out that creating new adresses on the fly isn'
t universally better than generating the from seed
☟︎ Apocalyptic: that is: the hierarchy-deterministic way of computing addresses doesn'
t weaken at all the signature
Adlai: "can be stolen by people who have the auditor keys" - don'
t expose mpub, period. bip32 is not designed for auditing [live] wallets

http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=19-03-2015#1057738 << it is. people (especially people kinda too lazy to study things in depth) have all sorts of theories about privacy and keep pestering me for special addresses etc. it's a fashion is what it is, one i don'
t aim to encourage, and i'm stuck because w/e, serving teh customer.
Apocalyptic: didn'
t investigate if they have a particular form in base 16 or 2
decimation: if you can'
t understand prng, how are they gonna understanding the elliptical key math, even if they supply their own dice numbers?
Adlai: punkman: fwiw i'm quite sure bip32 doesn'
t make your addresses less secure, provided you don'
t leak the key data
shinohai: thx Adlai too many people don'
t want bitcoin but an *app* for bitcoin
Apocalyptic: punkman, maybe HD wallet doesn'
t mean the same thing for you
Apocalyptic: punkman, I simply don'
t see the relationship between HMAC-derived addresses and the signature process, more specifically the k-value
ben_vulpes: this is above my pay grade in terms of data structures, but perhaps an opportunity to learn. is there not a data structure available for use that doesn'
t have to iterate through the whole index to grab the element of interest?
trinque: ben_vulpes: widespread use of indices to deal with the fact that berkdb... ain'
t a db?
ben_vulpes: how's life, davout? haven'
t seen you much of late.
ben_vulpes: don'
t worry about wasted effort. the more people who have it in their head, the better off la serenissima is.
ben_vulpes: isn'
t processmessages the only thread that writes to the db?
assbot: Logged on 01-08-2015 04:39:08; asciilifeform: i mean, yes, i haven'
t turned my death ray on db.cpp yet
assbot: Um, shouldn'
t you be with your own tribe or somethin'?
trinque: asciilifeform: are you the one weird trick they don'
t want me to know?
mircea_popescu: mostly doing pest control or i don'
t remember what nonsense.
shinohai: asciilifeform: u don'
t just add keys manually ?
shinohai: it's no big deal bitcoind doesn'
t have importprivkey to me
BingoBoingo: Also US really doesn'
t do much in the way of putting spent fuel in coffins, Tends to leave it swimming in pools, just outside of reactor housings
assbot: Logged on 01-08-2015 14:20:38; mircea_popescu: i guess alf's observation re kalash bullets, copper and izhevsk is so difficult to grok and utterly advanced people just can'
t wrap their heads around the fact that copper's not really the only superiority metal.
decimation: but that ain'
t gonna happen because it would cause $bil in paperwork to be generated
assbot: Logged on 01-08-2015 14:47:17; mircea_popescu: yet somehow in their minds the idea doesn'
t form that... hello ? anyone home ?
mircea_popescu: in fairness it hasn'
t been studied too much yet. who knows.
assbot: Logged on 01-08-2015 14:35:30; mircea_popescu: that's all i was saying really. making your own rare metals may work, but it won'
t be this century.
mircea_popescu: yet somehow in their minds the idea doesn'
t form that... hello ? anyone home ?
☟︎ mircea_popescu: the x per day bla bla figure is spurious. obviously there's a shitton of energy there. the problem is we don'
t yet have the filters.
mircea_popescu: that's all i was saying really. making your own rare metals may work, but it won'
t be this century.
☟︎ gribble: Error: Something in there wasn'
t a valid number.
mircea_popescu: (i have the math done on the difference between being exposed to a meltdown outside and being exposed to ingested material, if the obvious difference's aren'
t obvious i can dig it up)
decimation: yeah, it's one of those 'we could safely use nuclear to supply electricty to everyone but we don'
t because reasons' situation
mircea_popescu: yes. the fact that they can'
t currently be extracted efficiently from electronics scrap speaks volumes.
decimation: the challenge with rare earths isn'
t finding them or digging them up, it's sorting them and processing them
mircea_popescu: i guess alf's observation re kalash bullets, copper and izhevsk is so difficult to grok and utterly advanced people just can'
t wrap their heads around the fact that copper's not really the only superiority metal.
☟︎ mircea_popescu: and you simply can'
t beat a value proposition like "either have europium or not be able to display the color red - it's that simple".
decimation: gold is nice because it doesn'
t oxidize, just sits
mircea_popescu: kakobrekla interesting. tho i don'
t get enough from that article to figure out how the fuck it'd work
punkman: shinohai: it doesn'
t work like that
mircea_popescu: anyway there's a reason for the magic numbers too, something to do with theoretical maximums of a 1mb block but i don'
t recall what THAT was either.
cazalla: punkman, what a lost generation, can'
t even kill a chicken without getting out their phone to post it on fkn instagram
trinque: asciilifeform | BingoBoingo: is there a particular reason we didn'
t set that knob to maxint ?
BingoBoingo: punkman: Unwedged 0.7-ish stator still isn'
t anywhere near this sync'd yet
decimation: I can'
t enumerate them all, but the network code, for instance, runs in a different thread than the db code for instace
decimation: folks can'
t be bothered to actually think about how to design things without collisions
trinque: because that didn'
t cut it
BingoBoingo: So it's more "non-deterministic behavior" and 40,000 probably just wasn'
t enough DB locks and objects to fix it
decimation: hopefully this will influence apple to turn osx into a more adult unix, but I wouldn'
t hold my breath
punkman: "Why don'
t you use short keys? They scale better"
trinque: then from the other angle, maybe she looked great in that dress, and the neckbeards couldn'
t take the heat
mircea_popescu: anyway. why can'
t "coding like a girl" mean you write good documentation, for instance ?
danielpbarron: but we need the explored resources anyway; it's not like i'm wasting time doing somethign i wouldn'
t have done otherwise
BingoBoingo: My favorite part of reading my debug.log is getting to see all the transactions that don'
t make it to the mempool
punkman: so if Hearn trusts in the Gospel of Satoshi, why isn'
t he running 0.1 or 0.5.3? "No it wasn'
t. That is something you invented yourself much later. "Small devices" isn'
t even defined anywhere, so there can'
t have been any such understanding. The actual understanding was the opposite. Satoshi's words: ..."
punkman: Q: Is there a Django Girls for men? A: There doesn'
t seem to be a need for Django Boys at the moment.
BingoBoingo: K, moar locks doesn'
t seem to be fixing wedge
trinque: once you can internalize a lie like "don'
t judge" you're broken
