ThickAsThieves: this is of course why ethereum can't be
taken seriously, etc
ThickAsThieves: also
they'd open source
the miners after
they mined "enough"
ThickAsThieves: indeed, it also reminds me of
the quantum mining guys somehow arguing
that soliciting investors
to create it would make
them rich in bitcoins, while out
the other side of
their mouth saying
that quantum invulnerable wallets can be made afterward
Neil: I guess I can celebrate understanding sthg mircea doesn't / didn't 24 hrs ago.
There is no problem with
the compilers; whatever
they do is good; it's all in
the language spec and doing something with no defined semantics.
nubbins`: twist: nsa foresaw digital currency and created bitcoin codebase so
that a flawed implementation would ruin people on
the idea
Neil: When I release my bitcoin implementation, it may suck in many ways, but it won't have
things like
that in it.
Neil: NSA doesn't have
to
try
too hard.
nubbins`: actually, you could remove everything past
the first
three words
Neil: ThickAsThieves:
The problem is,
these are always signs
that
the dude
that wrote it doesn't really know what
they're doing. Hence why we're all running code with remote exploits.
nubbins`: half
that sentence isn't necessary
ThickAsThieves: "I can't
think of any computer program
that was running 130 years ago
that is still running
today." ...
Neil: Yeah so I'm zebedee on
the fora
Neil: Lemme find
the link
Neil: (though DJBs language conformance was pretty shit
too)
Neil: The problem is most coders don't know
the language
they're writing, nor do
they care. Hence
the crap we deal with. We need more Dan Bernsteins and Matt Dillons.
Neil: But a bug it is;
the code wouldn't pass muster in GCC which I used
to maintain.
Neil: The laughing was something like "Yeah we'll all care about
that in 2200" which is fair enough; no way will
the bug last
that long. And you won't care before
then.
Neil: It's undefined behaviour
to shift by an amount greater
than or equal
to
the bitwidth of
the
type in C and C++. No such care was
taken in
the bitcoind codebase.
Neil: I pointed out
the >>= bug about 1 year ago. I got laughed at on
the forums.
nubbins`: big ol' whitespace breaks going down
the page
chetty: <ThickAsThieves> who
takes delivery of a web dev project and
THEN
tests it? what web dev refunds money just cuz job isnt finished? <<<
The US Gov?
ThickAsThieves: "It's not a currency," he said. "I wouldn't be surprised if it wasn't around in
the next 10-20 years." "It's being priced off
the dollar," Buffett added. "It is not a durable means of exchange."
HeySteve: nubbins, what's up with
the layout?
ThickAsThieves: "Mark Karpeles blatantly lied so as
to hide an inexcusable fact: no development work had been done. "
ThickAsThieves: so far
this
tells
the story of every single web dev project ever
ThickAsThieves: who
takes delivery of a web dev project and
THEN
tests it? what web dev refunds money just cuz job isnt finished?
ThickAsThieves: "As a result of one’s legitimate desire not
to pay for a job failing
to comply with
the original agreement"
ThickAsThieves: <nubbins`> wow, so bitstamp lost
their email list? lel /// I'm skeptical
nubbins`: wow, so bitstamp lost
their email list? lel
ThickAsThieves: you can still see
the Silver Member logo on his site

thru www.inputs.io
ThickAsThieves: yes
the post is errored in
that
TF was a Silver Member of
the BTCFundnation
vexuall: Warm yor cake hole corn hole sppooon fed fuckstick face by

vexuall: Some dude said how
the internet routs around fucktardery wnd cesorship
vexuall: Such
that an irc handle wont save you
dexX7_: this is probably
teh end of bitcoin :(
ozbot: Bitstamp email list used
to spread Mt.Gox malware : Bitcoin
vexuall: Good luck buying a corner
to piss in dux
Apocalyptic: mircea_popescu, "The only reason
TradeFortress wasn't similarly has
to do with cash" // I believe
the foundation vouched for him in
the sense
they published some logo or whatever advertising for inputs.io
benkay: give it
three years you might
talk mp into flying you out
to dj

vexuall: Can I get a link
to pankkakes mpex charting?
ozbot: Calling out
the Bitcoin Foundation Scam.
mircea_popescu: this is a serious problem, because one cent from one billion scum results in enough piled up money for shit like spears and aurora coin
to pretenbd like
they matter.
mircea_popescu: they'll spend it
to buy britney spears records and aurora coins
mircea_popescu: if
they have as much as one cent extra over what
the bare minimum
their sustenance requires,
mircea_popescu: that way you ensure any resources
they have are judiciously expended.
mircea_popescu: this is
the problem with welfare :
this sort of idiot should be on a starvation diet
benkay: the surprise is
that people buy
this particular scam.
benkay: and yet
the aurora coin people are nominally going
to give coins
to icelandic folk?
mircea_popescu: benkay well yes,
the icelanders are under insane capital controls. what's
the surprise here ?
mircea_popescu: they should have quit when i said it's a scam, not wait
till after i killed
their piggybank.
mircea_popescu: anyway. for
the record : people quitting Bitcoin Foundation now are going
to be getting exactly zero credit for it.
joecool: oh god i was missing
this kind of scamming
mircea_popescu: bitcoin is here
to kill aml anyway. why prolong its agony.
mircea_popescu: it's great, it will encourage anyone who isn't an imbecile
to not send his data
to aml bs.
mircea_popescu: o yeah,
this is good drama, gotta keep it for at least a month.
Apocalyptic: damn, i've been off for a while and it seems
the gox drama is keeping on
mircea_popescu: maybe
this way
they'll escape prosecution and everything
KRS-One: BREAKING NEWS: USD
transaction maleability issue. News at 11.
mircea_popescu: in new news : bitcoin scamdation running out of
the us
gribble: Error:

chetty: Tim Cook has shocked some in
the US with an impassioned attack on
the single-minded pursuit of profit – and a direct appeal
to climate-change deniers not
to buy shares in his firm.
Jakamoko: supposedly
they got access
to
the user's aml documentation
ThickAsThieves: "nanashi____ who posted
the leaked recording between Mark Karpeles and
the Japanese bank also says
there is a 20GB MySQL database. An unknown group is
trying
to decode it and retrieve non-personal information at
the moment, and may release a
torrent later."
benkay: i guess just another aspect of
the problem we all face
that we never
talk about in public because just
talking about it exposes your practices
MisterE: Crimerians are happy
the Russians are
