danielpbarron: it's my understanding that BTC private keys shouldn't be seen
bitcoinpete: then away you go on your tour around the world in 80 days
bitcoinpete: those are just two sites you can use to input a passphrase and retrieve your private key
BingoBoingo: It's probably not the language's fault per se. It's just that all of the runtimes for it suck.
bitcoinpete: no one is trusting javascript
thestringpuller: never trust javascript
danielpbarron: i have generated a very long very random passphrase but i'm not going to plug it into those services
danielpbarron: bitcoinpete, lool i'm not using those
bitcoinpete: or even just have the private key encrypted in a txt file
danielpbarron: i would totally chip in to that project
bitcoinpete: you could also have a gpg encrypted txt file with your brainwallet passphrase, meaning you'd just need brainwallet.org or bitaddress.org
danielpbarron: it's open source; who cares what the "devs" do
thestringpuller: is there anyway for us to fix that?
danielpbarron: i would love for someone in this channel to rewrite bitcoind
BingoBoingo: thestringpuller: It's simple really, the "devs" are lead by fucktards
thestringpuller: 21 seconds to do getbalance
thestringpuller: why the fuck is bitcoind so bloated
danielpbarron: but i'm not dead-set on that plan; feel free to show me how my idea is stupid
danielpbarron: yeah I could redownload the blockchain wherever i go, but that takes a day; what if i need funds sooner?
danielpbarron: yeah i could just carry gpg but I don't want to rely on things like bc.i
bitcoinpete: danielpbarron: i could see the attraction
mod6: do you have a blockchain in your pocket, or are you just happy to see me?
bitcoinpete: i like the idea of that plan too, just not sure why you'd want to carry the whole blockchain
BingoBoingo: benkay: Multibit does that sometimes even with transactions that have fees attached. It's annoying.
danielpbarron: and carry a copy of the blockchain with me
danielpbarron: i'm doing it with flash drive partly because the box i'm using doesn't have a big enough HD, and partly because I like the idea of being able to grab a flashdrive if i had to get out of dodge in a hurry
bitcoinpete: ooo this should be juicy, marc andreessen on bitcoin and the future of the digital economy: http://www.econtalk.org/archives/2014/05/marc_andreessen.html
danielpbarron: right now i'm not at that point; i'm still trying to get it caught up with the latest block
danielpbarron: why should it be a problem? only have to write every 10 minutes or so
bitcoinpete: ya the chainz ain't got no place on flash drivez
danielpbarron: bitcoind 0.7.2 compiled ok, it gives a warning but i don't think it's criticall
danielpbarron: and also, i haven't yet figured out how to compile ssss on openbsd 5.5
danielpbarron: i'm running into troubles, but i think it has more to do with flash drives not being the best place to store the blockchain
bitcoinpete: thestringpuller: other than irc, what are you using it for?
bitcoinpete: danielpbarron: and how goes the battle?
thestringpuller: I still don't think I set it up right...
thestringpuller: bitcoinpete: mod6 got me into freebsd, it's much more stable than most OS's I use but it was hard as fuck for me to set up
bitcoinpete: mircea_popescu's latest on ubuntu was a good reminder that pretty much all the oses suck
bitcoinpete: sounded more impressive in the logs lol
benkay: zero-fee txn didn't show up until blockchain reset, whatever that means in the context of an spv client
bitcoinpete: benkay: so you hacked multibit to adjust the transaction fees?
bitcoinpete: not sure the bitcoin angle has much traction there
fluffypony: lol, thestringpuller is in a very good mood today
thestringpuller: bitcoinpete needs to be sent to Iran to report on bitcoin VICE style
bitcoinpete: that's the saddest looking creature

punkman: "The first statement will be that there is still some good left in this world. We plan on doing that by showing that a coin with 51% premine and not a scam CAN exist! I will personally be giving away or feeding faucets, if I have to, until ALL coins are paid out! Rain or shine! If my net goes down, I'll use my neighbors'! If he says no, I'll hack his WIFI! (j/k, I'll use McDonalds)"
punkman: "MLK Coin is absolutely not a racist coin, it is a coin that carries with it the same dream of a co-mingled society not divided by tribes of skin color, but united as a single family of human beings.  A small pre-mine percentage is intended for distribution to the black community, but the majority (90%) is not.  It is open to miners, investors, and traders of any race, gender, orientation, or other classifications."

bounce: I think you just lost me.
bounce: you're not listening yet warming yourself on the fire?
mircea_popescu: if he can then why isn't he. your average scammer, he can make ipo-type noises, can't he ?
mircea_popescu: bounce the books burned, did they ?
mircea_popescu: it is uninteresting and unimportant what the helots thought of lacedemonia
mircea_popescu: that's not half the record. that is the whole record.
mircea_popescu: but taking every nobody seriously is the recipe for complete and utter failure.
bounce: in history it's more like you only get half the record: the story told by the victors, those that survive to literacy. you don't get a lot of the failures, or even the successes that got eclipsed or had their records destroyed for whatever reason.
mircea_popescu: every particle, you must take seriously, as if it were the entire fucking world, and one particle is enough to disprove an entire theory, in physics. sure.
mircea_popescu: bias here is exactly contrarily : taking random joe blow seriously as if he were a human being.
mircea_popescu: here the outliers are worthless.
mircea_popescu: well, bias in science means rejecting the outliers.
mircea_popescu: and aspiring scientists are always taken aback. "how can he say this!11"
mircea_popescu: what's the first thing i say here ? "who the fuck are you and what makes you think you have something to say".
mircea_popescu: see, let's look at it this way :
bounce: it's only just about the first thing aspiring historians are taught. maybe they're a faith-based bunch? who knows.
mircea_popescu: bounce how would you know either of these ?
mircea_popescu: anyway, if us bureaucracy today were about on par professionally with the roman bureaucracy in the times of nero, way past the expiration date of that state, ron paul would have an epiphany and would be introducing bills for giving lincoln posthumous honors.
bounce: no, all I said was that it isn't very good data. it's incomplete and moreover biased. reason enough to look for more ways to get more input.
mircea_popescu: ah. well when you try to discard a metric shitton of experimental data on the grounds that you can't read it...
bounce: how did I say it was their problem?
mircea_popescu: no, just, physicists actually work at their actual profession.
mircea_popescu: what, you think people haven't lived together before ? they have, but their recorded experience is lost to you. this isn't their problem. it's yours.
mircea_popescu: you try this, seriously, make new york work without electricity for a year.
