hacking is a combination of many things.

compressing a video is RE and innovation.

although hacking can be good, they both use the same techniques to achieve a similar goal.

is hacking:
sql injection
dumping a database directly from the outside
exploiting bugs

not hacking:
dos/ddos (although you can hack into systems to get resources to dos/ddos)
client side stuff (although in gaming terms this is hacking, but in general terms it is not(its "cheating") unless the server itself if being compromised)

there is a huge amount of technicalities i don't care to remember or list. some in the list could be wrong, but whatever. i think we should instead of saying "hack" we say the user/pass database was dumped or whatever happened.

Bitcoin bailout... interesting.  should be bullish for the bitcoin price in the short term

It's not a bailout when done with private money. It's just an acquisition between voluntary parties. Bailout is a terrible concept/term and is best reserved for the wretched government practice.

yep

when the government does it,it pisses me off, however when a private company does it with their own money, as long as it does not create a monopoly i could care less.

64B

although thats not a "wallet" per se, but it does contain coins.
344  Bitcoin / Development & Technical Discussion / Re: Would it be possible... on: August 11, 2011, 12:00:51 AM
I do not think it would work. right now, bitcoin is completely decentralized, if you were to impose things like F@H, then bitcoin becomes centralized and useless. that is unless someone provides some rock solid solutions to the problem.

i dont fully understand how some text in the genesis block proves a date. but i do see your point.
346  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANNOUNCE] Ixcoin - a new Bitcoin fork on: August 10, 2011, 10:53:53 PM
ill give you guys a hint...the chain with the highest difficulty is the most secure. why would you use ixcoin when you could probably do a 51% attack with like 50 ghash/s for real.

iv got the new version running 1.1-23

what does each field mean?

key=bitcoin private key?
message=duh
signature=?
public=bitcoin public key?
version=do i need to change that, or is that there for future reasons
352  Bitcoin / Development & Technical Discussion / Re: Pywallet: manage your wallet on: August 10, 2011, 06:56:17 PM
so if i want to use the new version of pywallet, do i need to run it without ecdsa, or is it just to test to make sure it works without crashing?
353  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Let's talk about NAMECOIN on: August 09, 2011, 12:52:41 PM
the only future i see for namecoin is giving static addresses to bitcoin addresses.

and the protocol would need some major revisions and would need to be completely restarted IMO

1. cheaper names
2. do not destroy coins, ever
3. the cost of the domain is hard to fairly determine, but if the amount of domains registered per block, and amount of "active" coins were taken into account, you get set prices pretty good
4. need a utility that does not work via a modified dns server, surf with your own blockchain
354  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: [EDITORIAL] Don't Count on Bitcoin for Safe Haven in Recessionary Economy on: August 09, 2011, 12:45:33 PM
why do people post this stuff? bitcoin is in no way a real economic factor in any economy in a big way. an i also dont think currency has much if anything to do with a recession.

you can not say bitcoin is in a recession, it does not make any sense.

i like where north Korea's priorities are.

they have a starving population, a military based on equipment from around WWII, slave camps and a population controlled via fear, propaganda and indoctrination.

yet they only want nuclear arms to take out the Americans.

drug solution

tor hidden service
when someone buys the drugs, you go deaddrop them
tell where you dropped them off, that way you can not be caught, unless you get caught dropping it off

I believe we should be able to grow any plant or consume any substance that is reasonable, assuming it does not harm the environment or others. the bs government can go fuck their self before i change my mind.
360  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Building a Bitcoin business - best practices suggestions on: August 09, 2011, 03:32:47 AM
you do not need to reveal your name or identity but you do need

prompt replies to any and all questions via forums email or whatever else you have or use
be very transparent, tell them what you are doing, keep your logs of what you do public and often.
be very clear to the conditions for refunds/returns
NO ADVERTISEMENT(to clarify, you can advertise your product elsewhere, but do not advertise for revenue. exceptions are webs of trust links and your own products/offerings)
other stuff
