2 2011-12-30 01:02:11 <gmaxwell> [Tycho]: Darcs fetch != http.
3 2011-12-30 01:07:05 <luke-jr> he left
4 2011-12-30 01:07:09 <luke-jr> but fail
5 2011-12-30 01:07:21 <luke-jr> gmaxwell: you fail too btw
6 2011-12-30 01:07:25 <luke-jr> it's still a HTTP URI
7 2011-12-30 01:07:32 <luke-jr> so it'd better be using some kind of HTTP :P
8 2011-12-30 01:07:55 <gmaxwell> sure, but it works with darcs. I have no idea what path or method it uses.
9 2011-12-30 01:08:15 <gmaxwell> no different that if I'd said https != http. ::shrugs::
10 2011-12-30 05:11:48 <BlueMatt-mobile> sipa do you have the time and willingness to implement you eval proposal so that everyone feels a bit more comefortable and we can move on?
11 2011-12-30 05:12:29 <BlueMatt-mobile> ;;seen sipa
12 2011-12-30 05:12:29 <gribble> sipa was last seen in #bitcoin-dev 6 hours, 40 minutes, and 44 seconds ago: * sipa -> bed
13 2011-12-30 05:12:39 <BlueMatt-mobile> Heh of course
14 2011-12-30 05:25:36 <gmaxwell> BlueMatt: yea... not being able to see which keepnode connections are actually up is annoying.
15 2011-12-30 05:26:02 <gmaxwell> (I mean, I can lsof .. but that doesn't tell me, e.g. the last time it was connected)
16 2011-12-30 05:32:23 <BlueMatt> gmaxwell: patches wecome :)
17 2011-12-30 05:32:29 <BlueMatt> s/wecome/welcome/
18 2011-12-30 05:32:47 <BlueMatt> gmaxwell: though I agree, Im just busy writing other patches atm...
19 2011-12-30 05:32:58 <gmaxwell> yea yea. its in my queue if you don't get to it first.
20 2011-12-30 05:33:49 <BlueMatt> ok, well we'll see who gets there first then :)
21 2011-12-30 05:34:04 <gmaxwell> Mostly unrelated, I decided to try p2pool again... big improvement from the last time I used it. It has matured a lot, and appears to work really well now.
22 2011-12-30 05:34:29 <gmaxwell> (my motivation for paying attention to keep node it gave me a reason to groom my local bitcoin nodes...)
23 2011-12-30 05:35:15 <BlueMatt> nice, thats good to hear
24 2011-12-30 05:37:46 <vsrinivas> does it include transactions in blocks now?
25 2011-12-30 05:37:53 <gmaxwell> Yes.
26 2011-12-30 05:38:52 <gmaxwell> And merged-mines with namecoin... and allows you to have customer miners that get paid (eligius style address in username)
27 2011-12-30 07:08:07 <BlueMatt> anyone have a chain snapshot with a small number of blocks?

35 2011-12-30 07:26:43 <Joric> where is that enourmous brain
36 2011-12-30 07:27:11 <BlueMatt> thats the problem with being on the west coast - when you want to do work, no one else is around...
37 2011-12-30 07:28:30 <Diablo-D3> heh?
38 2011-12-30 07:29:45 <BlueMatt> has anyone profiled bitcoin while downloading blocks and figured out how much cpu time is spent on checking if txes belong to the user?
39 2011-12-30 07:31:17 <Joric> for now i'd rather download the blockchain from http
40 2011-12-30 07:31:56 <Joric> just figured out it's zipped and placed on sf
41 2011-12-30 07:32:11 <BlueMatt> best place: http://eu1.bitcoincharts.com/blockchain/
42 2011-12-30 07:32:22 <BlueMatt> gpg signed and trustworthy :)
43 2011-12-30 07:33:33 <Joric> the latter is not compressed hell knows why but those 1.2gb wont download faster than a 400mb zip archive )
44 2011-12-30 07:36:30 <vsrinivas> BlueMatt: i've been gathering ktraces in BSD. no answers yet, just getting data.
45 2011-12-30 07:36:34 <BlueMatt> true, also tcatm why arent you compressing them?
46 2011-12-30 07:36:51 <BlueMatt> .tar.xz or something would be nice
47 2011-12-30 07:38:13 <vsrinivas> i believe gmaxwell suggested oprofile, i've no experience with it, but it looks like a good tool for this.
48 2011-12-30 07:38:26 <BlueMatt> I just wondered
49 2011-12-30 07:38:38 <BlueMatt> (not enough to profile myself)

52 2011-12-30 07:42:10 <vsrinivas> hmm. my perception (no data) was that bitcoind got the chain up to date from the same point on openbsd (n:1 thread library) than on other systems i tried... but so much at play, all 1cpu, etc... and that was 0.3.23.
53 2011-12-30 07:42:26 <vsrinivas> *more quickly ... than.
54 2011-12-30 07:42:50 <vsrinivas> anyway -- really worth moving ismine to another thread?
55 2011-12-30 07:43:56 <BlueMatt> I dont know, thats why I was asking, but the moving to another thread isnt because I think its worth it, but because of the way the refactor is being structured...
56 2011-12-30 07:45:03 <vsrinivas> oh ok.

72 2011-12-30 09:48:12 <cjdelisle> you have like 30 seconds to auth or you're force renicked
73 2011-12-30 09:49:15 <lfm> ok, that makes sense
74 2011-12-30 11:21:18 <genjix> wumpus: this link is down https://download.visucore.com/realcoin/qtgui_deps_1.zip
75 2011-12-30 11:21:58 <genjix> ERROR: certificate common name `www.caltha-spiritueel.nl' doesn't match requested host name `download.visucore.com'.
76 2011-12-30 11:23:55 <wumpus> maybe your browser doesn't support SAN (server alternative name) in TLS certificates
77 2011-12-30 11:24:37 <wumpus> also I'm pretty sure I don't have a "realcoin" directory on that server :-)
78 2011-12-30 11:24:44 <genjix> ohh
79 2011-12-30 11:25:03 <wumpus> should be bitcoin
80 2011-12-30 11:25:45 <genjix> ok that works ^^
81 2011-12-30 11:26:29 <wumpus> someone did a naive search/replace
82 2011-12-30 11:26:55 <genjix> yeah that was me
83 2011-12-30 11:27:19 <edcba> SAN is shit imo
84 2011-12-30 11:27:36 <edcba> leaking host name of https connection is counter intuitive
85 2011-12-30 11:28:01 <wumpus> maybe it is, but buying shitloads of IP is shit too
86 2011-12-30 11:28:37 <edcba> but it could have been handled another way
87 2011-12-30 11:28:51 <wumpus> then there is SNI, which is better, but it's even less supported :/
88 2011-12-30 11:28:58 <genjix> how come UPNP isn't bundled with the deps and some of the boost headers are missing?
89 2011-12-30 11:29:15 <genjix> last time i had to compile upnp myself and copy over matching boost headers
90 2011-12-30 11:29:23 <genjix> (just curious)
91 2011-12-30 11:29:49 <wumpus> well main problem is that firefox on xp doesn't support it
92 2011-12-30 11:30:29 <wumpus> genjix: re: upnp, I just wanted the minimal deps that could be used to build that version of bitcoin
93 2011-12-30 11:30:37 <genjix> ok
94 2011-12-30 11:30:40 <wumpus> same with boost, maybe we use more of boost now
95 2011-12-30 11:31:04 <wumpus> that deps archive was a quick hack so people could test bitcoin-qt
96 2011-12-30 11:31:12 <wumpus> we don't use it ourselves
97 2011-12-30 11:31:18 <genjix> ok, well it works for the most part :)
98 2011-12-30 11:32:34 <wumpus> I should probably assemble a new one some day, when I have some interest in windows again :-)
99 2011-12-30 11:33:21 <genjix> one thing is that empty space on the overview tab is really ugly
100 2011-12-30 11:33:40 <genjix> i was thinking maybe you could put getinfo information there.
101 2011-12-30 11:33:47 <genjix> one useful stat is number of connections.
102 2011-12-30 11:33:49 <wumpus> well, having empty space is not ugly, it's just the the stuff should be better distributed
103 2011-12-30 11:34:26 <genjix> put a section called
104 2011-12-30 11:34:30 <genjix> Advanced statistics
105 2011-12-30 11:34:37 <genjix> * number of connections
106 2011-12-30 11:34:50 <wumpus> and I don't really want to fill it with numbers or make it like a pilot's dashboard
107 2011-12-30 11:34:55 <genjix> * difficulty
108 2011-12-30 11:34:59 <genjix> ok
109 2011-12-30 11:35:12 <genjix> but empty space doesnt look good.
110 2011-12-30 11:35:26 <genjix> however everything else is really nice.
111 2011-12-30 11:35:27 <wumpus> though I agree advanced statistics would be useful somewhere, it's not something you want to put in new user's faces
112 2011-12-30 11:35:31 <genjix> i like the tab bar.
113 2011-12-30 11:36:30 <wumpus> I agree it's not optimal like this... but adding more information to fill it up is a suboptimal solution as well imo
114 2011-12-30 11:36:48 <genjix> ok that's not a bad argument
115 2011-12-30 11:36:54 <wumpus> the main aim is financial
116 2011-12-30 11:37:26 <wumpus> but yeah maybe number of connections is "simple enough" to understand we can add it :-)
117 2011-12-30 11:38:01 <wumpus> but some opaque number like difficulty... I dunno
118 2011-12-30 11:39:11 <wumpus> it would be interesting to show wether there are any incoming connections (like some bittorrent programs do)
119 2011-12-30 11:39:19 <wumpus> to see if UPNP/port forwarding is working
120 2011-12-30 11:39:23 <genjix> yeah
121 2011-12-30 11:39:42 <genjix> People that are connected to you: X
122 2011-12-30 11:39:55 <wumpus> yeah

136 2011-12-30 13:53:14 <Diablo-D3> Im not going to work on it anymore
137 2011-12-30 13:54:09 <Diablo-D3> it doesnt matter if my miner is the fastest or the fullest featured

141 2011-12-30 13:56:10 <wutzebaer1> Can anybody tell me why the open cl miner shows shares when solo mining? does he take a dummy target to show that he's working?
142 2011-12-30 13:56:34 <Diablo-D3> wutzebaer1: which miner?
143 2011-12-30 14:01:55 <wutzebaer1> i use guiminer, "Standard Open CL miner"
144 2011-12-30 14:02:31 <Diablo-D3> thats poclbm
145 2011-12-30 14:02:35 <Diablo-D3> not sure what poclbm does anymore
146 2011-12-30 14:02:45 <Diablo-D3> it might just be showing diff 1 responses
147 2011-12-30 14:03:00 <vsrinivas> many miners just track diff=1 submissions as 'shares'
148 2011-12-30 14:03:42 <wutzebaer1> so its just a dummy target?
149 2011-12-30 14:07:43 <makomk> IIRC, poclbm does count difficulty-1 results as shares and use them to estimate the effective hash rate, yeah.

155 2011-12-30 17:52:34 <philominer> i cannot find the minning software... can someone give me a link ?
156 2011-12-30 17:53:41 <pirateat40> Google cgminer
157 2011-12-30 17:54:15 <philominer> thanks is that the for normal cpu or for gpu?
158 2011-12-30 17:54:39 <luke-jr> philominer: you can't realistically mine on a CPU
159 2011-12-30 17:54:58 <luke-jr> only high end Radeons, FPGAs, and ASICs
160 2011-12-30 17:55:09 <pirateat40> he is mining on cpu?
161 2011-12-30 17:55:27 <luke-jr> that was implied by his "normal cpu" comment
162 2011-12-30 17:55:39 <luke-jr> the only 'normal' in mining is Radeon GPUs
163 2011-12-30 17:55:41 <pirateat40> oh
164 2011-12-30 17:56:29 <philominer> i really new
165 2011-12-30 17:56:39 <philominer> just glanning for information
166 2011-12-30 17:56:48 <philominer> people are really using fgpas?
167 2011-12-30 17:57:17 <philominer> they did reimplement the software in hardware?
168 2011-12-30 17:58:04 <luke-jr> mining isn't really complicated
169 2011-12-30 17:58:06 <luke-jr> it's just SHA256
170 2011-12-30 18:00:48 <[Tycho]> philominer: yes, there are different FPGA products available.
171 2011-12-30 18:01:13 <[Tycho]> But it's not really "hardware implementation", it's just HDL :)
