chetty: bitcoins don'
t get lost (mostly) just transfered
mircea_popescu: fluffypony making mistakes should be encouraged in a narrow field : that where we don'
t know what the mistakes are. in the fields where we already know, they should not be.
fluffypony: but you can'
t even quantify "stuff you don'
t know"
mircea_popescu: idiots on the forum also think they know better. the reason they think so is because they don'
t know what they don'
t know
chetty: you would listen to a 'teacher' that wasn'
t worth it?
danielpbarron: bitcoin doesn'
t get "cracked down on;" it does the cracking
bounce: SSRN, wasn'
t that a class of antidepressants?
benkay: it has footnotes and stuff that won'
t survive so well
mjr_: maybe i didn'
t read that far down
mjr_: which is the same issue...you don'
t pick a name and then ISO standardizes
mjr_: phones can currently type the bitcoin symbol...i don'
t even know how you would convince apple or motorola to add a keyboard
fluffypony: just because someone says its dead doesn'
t automagically make it so
mircea_popescu: fluffypony sure, except we've seen it three times already : the people who are butthurt during upswings because they were left out still don'
t buy during downswings because now it's more like "Haha! it's dead!"
mircea_popescu: they've painted themselves in a corner, basically. if all you wanna do is buy 20 bucks wortha btc to "have some", no way in fuck do you go through all the caudine forkland of "send us a pic with you holding a seal". odds are you don'
t even have a phone.
mike_c: i didn'
t realize what a honeypot mediawiki is.
benkay`: and you don'
t have the budget to pay for its production?
nubbins`: if you drop your $500 phone so often that you need to put it in a case, maybe you shouldn'
t have one
nubbins`: fluffypony, i don'
t use cases, but tyvm
fluffypony: nubbins`: want a wooden case for it? we have a bunch as gifts, but most of our customers are Android users, and the guy that makes them doesn'
t make Android cases
nubbins`: almost makes you think he shouldn'
t have been appointed to the senate in the first place
danielpbarron: honest individuals don'
t need money; Big Brother feeds them
danielpbarron: the US kinda sucks; if you aren'
t here already, don'
t come
fluffypony: "we must go to all 50 states. Except Alaska. Alaska isn'
t going to be nice."
dexX7: you don'
t need to hold everything in memory, but there is a database with all unspent outputs. more outputs = delayed lookup
kanzure: so often this means reindexing the blockchain for nodes that haven'
t been using -txindex
benkay: so you can'
t possibly be telling me that a full node needs to hold the whole bc in memory to do its job
kanzure: to be even more pedantic, counterparty isn'
t a colored coin implementation
Apocalyptic: but full nodes don'
t need mempool data for validating blocks
benkay: either you'll pay for the privilege or you won'
t.
jurov: i don'
t mind a terabyte per month,too but 10TB or more... um
benkay: miners don'
t mine for profit?
danielpbarron: yeah but they don'
t need the payment; they don'
t mine for profit anyway
pankkake: for me, bitcoin is terabytes of bandwith per month - I don'
t mind as it's almost free, but don'
t make the madness worse
danielpbarron: benkay: you pay, but the payment doesn'
t go to those actually doing the heavy lifting
danielpbarron: counterparty stores its data in the Blockchain and the devs don'
t like this
pankkake: but, at least for now, miners don'
t really care about pool transaction policies
benkay: devs, unles you're talking about conformal, don'
t really do much other than implement dirty code into bitcoin-qt
danielpbarron: Mats_cd03: I don'
t mind it costing a lot, but it's insulting to say that using aliminum costs 2 BTC more than using plastic
danielpbarron: otherwise, I don'
t think I can trust that little thing to make a secure enough seed
fluffypony: "Rap(e)Coin: the rap coin that's not about rape because rape is bad and rap isn'
t"
pankkake: and don'
t confuse them with pankkistani bonds
Apocalyptic: "i don'
t have any idea about wtf i'm doing"
mircea_popescu: yes, but those aren'
t the people that never woke up with a timer in their life.
mircea_popescu: cazalla the life of the p
t barnum promoter of roadside attractions is a precarious one.
mircea_popescu: i have no idea how come they still give diplomas to lawyers and journalists that aren'
t fluent with gpg since their sophomore year, but hey.
mircea_popescu: the whole spectrum seems to reduce to "didn'
t take it seriously enough"
mircea_popescu: pigeons in a meta-sense, everyone that fucked up so far has been fucked by the same thing : failure to take btc seriously enough. be it the derps that still don'
t have any, harping about how it's just a fad and quoting tired beanie babies examples,
Diablo-D3: I dunno, after all the years Ive been in the Bitcoin community, I just can'
t turn my back on everyone
Apocalyptic: maybe if you would write properly it wouldn'
t have escalated that far
gribble: Error: I haven'
t seen benkay, I'll let you do the telling.
Mats_cd03: it wouldn'
t, it would just be mildly cheaper
keonne: i also like nano, keeps it simple, and i don'
t need extra fucking thumbs
keonne_: people don'
t know about irc in general
[\]: fluffypony, people don'
t know about /list *bitcoin*
[\]: it wasn'
t a fucking invite
cazalla: but how do you know they don'
t keep a copy of the private key?
fluffypony: cazalla: didn'
t see any negative reviews
MisterE: then you can'
t make moves and coin up
mikaeldice: I think Ubuntu 14.04 will be the first if you don'
t want to pull a bleeding edge build for it
mikaeldice: I can'
t wait for high resolution display support to become more common on desktop distros
nubbins`: dell will uninstall windows and refund you the $25, as long as you don'
t turn on your new laptop and pay shipping both ways
nubbins`: mot much use for a company that doesn'
t stock blanks :D
nubbins`: also had to sign a contract stating that we won'
t, among other things, reveal prices nor will we resell undecorated garments
nubbins`: Mats_cd03: three-page application form. we didn'
t have to fill out the whole thing because we pay up-front with credit cards, but if you want to do net 30 etc, you have to provide business references and a ton of extra info
benkay: ;;later tell mike_c i guess the appropriate local metaphor would be "for those who prayed, dove through, and magically weren'
t sliced to bits by the chumpatron"
benkay: tell me that ain'
t a slide
mike_c: see, i told you it wasn'
t an input ;)
TestingUnoDosTre: jborkl, what was your point. I didn'
t understand - what was bugpowder talking about?
jborkl: Benkay is right supply is static, it is demand we don'
t know about
mike_c: unrelated. plus, who cares. next one isn'
t for 2 years.
jurov: so i don'
t have to stick to one client
mod6: couldn'
t get it configured?
mod6: one thing that i seem to remember that I didn'
t like (many many moons ago) about xchat is that if you derp-paste a bunch of stuff into the wrong window, it doens'
t ask you if you're sure you'd like to do spammy paste.
pankkake: if you're a heavy irc user, then irssi certainly isn'
t a hassle
Duffer1: but i don'
t irc anywhere other than my desktop anyways though
Azelphur: I still can'
t believe that just happened
jurov: they are dreaming about rebuilding electrum server on sx, but i don'
t cross my fingers
mike_c: and it doesn'
t seem hard to process those yourself, and then see if your code would have done the same thing.
pankkake: so bitcoind isn'
t used for much except read blocks and push txs
pankkake: shouldn'
t it be "I invested" instead of "I have invested"?
