Chaang-Noi: i have not made a btc payment for about 12 hours, will this make me saffer even if i use the new client?
pigeons: yeah ltc could never get this bug because that many transactions in litecoin would never propogate quickly enough to get included in a block
dub: mircea_popescu: loving the WTC ref
pigeons: everyone go take a walk and get some food and come bac in a few hours
Ukto: but put things on hold
Ukto: Chaang-Noi: that depends on what happens after blockchain merger
Chaang-Noi: so coins in our new clients are they gone?
Ukto: and olrder clients shat themselves
Ukto: someo made them too big
dub: pools are rolling back to 0.7 to fix
Ukto: pools were todl to increase blocksize
Chaang-Noi: what is the news with gox, just woke up?
dub: he'so offering to halt trading if gox does
mircea_popescu: payins i mean. people paying them.

ThickAsThieves: you know they will
dub: gox better not stop this crash
mircea_popescu: luckily there's still a ways to go
mircea_popescu: then they will have divergent difficulty
mircea_popescu: if one forks gets to actually the diff block
ThickAsThieves: oh cuz it wont change til the specific block
ThickAsThieves: and anyone helping to push the old fork gets super low diff
ThickAsThieves: so if they are forked, then anyone mining the dropped fork is fukt

dub: and I'm now ready to buy a different house
ThickAsThieves: sooo what happens if i do this
dub: fucking assholes now want to talk about my offer after a week of bullshit
jcpham: let's see how this plays out
mircea_popescu: a. they know shit ; b. they don't even know a. wtf.
mircea_popescu: i'm sick and tired of the young cocks circlejerk attitude.
dub: come on guys, its panic time if ever there was
dub: im just annoyed that we're not at $2 yet
mircea_popescu: what is this, 1955, we're discovering software engineering ?
mircea_popescu: it's not tested enough to release yet, do not release it.
mircea_popescu: how about bitcoin implementing something that failed is on the devs
dub: I think its too early to know if its bdb itself or bitcoins implementation
mircea_popescu: fuck that.
mircea_popescu: cause we're too busy acting the knowful shitheads on -dev ?
mircea_popescu: so what, we write bugs and that's ok if nobody forces our nose in it "?
pigeons: because the bug in BDB wasn't encountered before because the number of transactions in a block that trigger it wasnt valid before
mircea_popescu: it;'s the db now right ?
dub: because the database sucks
mircea_popescu: no dood. the problem is bad code, not the real world constraints that expose it sucks.
dub: because 0.7 nodes can't handle them
mircea_popescu: this is the same coolaid of saying "sd is hte problem"
mircea_popescu: how is the problem "increasing the blocksizer"
dub: because the problem is increasing teh blocksize not 0.8
mircea_popescu: that is the problem.
mircea_popescu: that is the problem.
mircea_popescu: that is the problem here.
mircea_popescu: they did not know what their own code did.
dub: mircea_popescu: big blocks are the problem here
mircea_popescu: jcpham done. they owe me a bra now.
mircea_popescu: their mommies made them do it ?
dub: fixing the network to make dice fit is the trigger
jcpham: trying to make sure my frind's band plays
jcpham: top three bands get to play
ThickAsThieves: seems like they could really fuck things up from this point still
mircea_popescu: fuckwits need to learn some humility presto.
mircea_popescu: tell them i expect an apology for this idiocy.
mircea_popescu: "which happens to be exactly what we're doing"
dub: we only know about it because half the network is on 0.8
mircea_popescu: "let's hide the fact that we suck at coding by falsely accusing someone else of doing things such as trying to externalise their costs on others"\
dub: by creating blocks too big for 0.7
dub: mircea_popescu: well no, dice fucked up the blockchain
mircea_popescu: jesus passing the buck is like a tradition in bitcoin-devtalk
mircea_popescu: dub SO THEY FUCKED UP THE UPGRADE.
dub: mircea_popescu: its a previously unheard of issue with BDB, the block size triggered it
dub: so if guild went down now it would be teh bitpocalypse
jcpham: anyone want to help me with a e-poll
dub: fix is to move majority hashing back to 0.7
mircea_popescu: so basically they fucvked up the upgrade.
dub: according to -dev
BitHub: is this a scam?
mircea_popescu: ie, is one avalon sponsored and the other am sponsored ?

mircea_popescu: totally qualified to give advice.
mircea_popescu: evoorhees good thinking on upping the you lost returns.
smickles: i might need to fiddle with the 'abuse' configs
mircea_popescu: i still think my idea was the most elegant
smickles: yup, also, i added email service to mpexbot
mircea_popescu: lol totally.
kakobrekla: wait so one must use it 5 times an hour ?
kakobrekla: lets see what happens then
smickles: well, kakobrekla if you think people are using it too often, let me know and I will switch it to pm response
kakobrekla: also side note, pm is short for 'picku mater' which roughty translates for 'mothers cunt'
mircea_popescu: but it has the potential to become.
smickles: do you think it's spammy as is?
mircea_popescu: up to you
smickles: it would be easist to just send it to pm
kakobrekla: basically just send it to pm.
mircea_popescu: and also send it by pm if it's been sent to the main chat during the past 1 hr
