I have accepted a bounty bid from Wolf`to release open source AMD mining software for AEON for the same bounty as the earlier NV miner, which is 9000 AEON.

The requirement is that it be released as open source on github and tested by some independent community members.

If the bounty is not claimed in some reasonable period of time I will open it up to others. For now it is assigned to Wolf`

EDIT: to be released on github

I am having some compilation difficulties today...
I don't know for sure, but that might be a memory issue. Try increasing your swap on your server, or try to move to an instance with more memory. Compiling monero can take over 1 gig of ram or something ridiculous.

Thank you!! I just had 512MB RAM assigned to each server. Bumped that up to 2048MB and monero now compiles OK :-)

Once you are done compiling you can reduce the memory. It only needs <100 MB (somewhat more may give better performance due to caching)

Ever since I solo mined a block on my DigitalOcean droplet a month ago (30-40 H/s) I've been more interested in mining, but pool mining just doesn't excite me. So I'm very glad to see that solo GPU mining is a goal!

I realized though that with solo GPU mining, we'll lose donations to core that pool ops generally implement. Hopefully Wolf's solo code can include this option, or the core devs will implement it into the general coinbase thinger, because I know this is a R&D goal.

If I do overhaul the pool code, it'd be simple to incorporate it in the solo miner once the pool part is done - just add an output to the coinbase transaction.

Probably better to do some random 1/N donation than bloat every coinbase.

Dude read my prior post

This one?

Generative Essence of What We Face Now

This post is incredibly important. If you don't focus on these videos, you do not understand the world we live in.

Martin Armstrong does not understand this. He hasn't watched these videos. That is why he is fooled about the fundamental cause, motive, and the global elite.


For Those Who Still Doubt 9/11 Wasn't a Demolition

Edit: I've added this one:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l0Q5eZhCPuc

If you have at least watched that one linked video above, you now understand without any doubt that 9/11 was an inside demolition. Any one who denies it after watching that video is simply insane.

So now if you want to know who did 9/11, here is that information:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sw4UDcmOqp4

...

Edit: listen to the first new video and you will understand what is going on in the Middle East.

If you've watched those two videos from start to finished and been attentive to every engineering detail in the first video and made sure you understand every demographic detail in the second video, then you already have realized there is something very profound about the role of the Zionists—iwho've formed and hijacked the State of Israel—iin everything that is going wrong. The evil is much more the raison d'être than for the concept of the "bankster". You must begin to realize that "bankster" is not the central enemy, but rather is one manisfestation of the following strategy for control of the world.

Btw, all of this is described in the Bible. Also if you become aware of the Abomination of the Desolation, there is a timing in the Bible for Jesus's return based on two events that already occurred— the formation of the Jewish state and the Camp David peace accord between Israel and Egypt (note Jimmy Carter's role although afaics he is not an intentionally evil player). I had calculated that date as 2024 back in 2007 with Marshall Swing. Marshall has since done some additional work on it and had emailed in my 2014 saying Armstrong timing was coinciding with his calculations (which he refused to detail to me in email) and that 2015.75 would begin the 7 year Tribulation. I had and continue to be skeptical of any timing based on the Bible alone (and I am not sure if I find Marshall credible), but I share it only because the way the truth is shaping up to match the Bible is too strong of a correlation to totally ignore. I am a scientist. Correlation doesn't mean cause and effect, but it is clue. However, the next paragraph is the most salient in terms of the new point I want to make in this post.

But maybe it has not yet occurred to you that Zionists have leveraged the 1000s of years hold conflict between Christians and Muslims to be able to place themselves in the drivers seat of control over the political-economic-media-military world by promoting these two religious factions to fight each other. They are promoting conflict every where they can, even between man and woman via feminism and its other extreme fundamentalist (non-moderate) Sharia Law Islam, as way to Balkanize (aka divide-and-conquer) the world so they can pull the strings without being attacked or focused upon. Yugoslavia served as an example for them as it was Balkanized by waves of conquest and threats from three or four ethnic groups over the centuries, with Muslims as one of them. As one example, you can even note in the first video below how foisting of feminism on the West by the Zionists (of which Rockefeller and Rothschild are members) has set us up to more in the cross-hairs of the Muslims and pushed their men more towards fundamentalism. If you watch very carefully the second video above and then the following videos will help solidify this concept for you the reader, so that you will understand much better what is going on in the world now.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XHl1JnQoIWQ
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8sV9UcZoTM4 (turmoil is what the Zionists want! Note Russia nor USA nor China will never bomb Israel! Remember I have explained democracy is a power vacuum lie)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uvtC_qzHVM4 (former POTUS Jimmy Carter)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xy_cUpxT884

From this we can start to analyze the upcoming future of the USA and Europe. We are being subverted by the Zionists. Are they going for broke and go to a shooting war with the Patriots?

We can clearly see that their goal is drive strife via multicultural conflict. This ties in with their belief that tribalism is the root of man's faults and thus why they are more suited to lead us because we can't lead ourselves. They see this all as destiny for them as written in the ancient texts such as the Bible, Koran, and occult/pagan.

By killing a million Jews with the Hitler they created (remember Prescott Bush financed Hitler through his Union Bank), they have created sympathy for a Jewish homeland amongst the liberals in the USA. By framing it as Muslim versus Christian, they garnish support amongst the religious conservatives in the USA. The Zionists are cleverly manipulating our political systems as well our economics. The media is owned by 6 families who are all Zionists. Etc.

For this analysis we can see Europeans are much more enslaved by the Zionists than the Americans. We still have the Patriots who are not entirely hoodwinked into the Zionist mind programming. The Europeans are fully indoctrinated into the crap the Zionists want them to the believe! Ponder that!

Btw, by making this post I may become a target of covert action. It is quite possible this is the last post I may be allowed to make if I continue on this line, because I am explaining in a very crystal clear way that very few if any have. Please make sure you spread this information far and wide. Email Armstrong this post!!!!!!!!!!!

Bd2

I like Be2 better. We can eventually play b3 or something and then move the other bishop out that way. After castling we can move our rook to d, but then we don't want it blocked with Bd2

Be2

EDIT: The h3 Svidler played here in the world cup still looks good to me even though BBR did something slightly different on the previous move, so that is another option, but I will stick with my vote for Be2.
4532  Economy / Economics / Re: Martin Armstrong Discussion on: October 09, 2015, 11:27:49 AM

He subsequently had the option to litigate, in court, his claims that his civil rights were violated (including but not limited to his claim that his admission being coerced and his claim that his right to a speedy trial was denied). In fact, he could have done this during his five years in prison after being convicted and sentenced. (Not like he had much else to do with his time.) If successful, not only could his conviction have been overturned and his admission of guilt erased, but he could also have been compensated, as many others have been under those circumstances (on occasion with large to extremely large cash awards). As such, his incentive to do so, if he has a legitimate case for it given the totality of the evidence that exists, should be obvious. He chose to pursue his grievance, not in court, but on a blog in the form of a public persona with the well-worn halo of being an Unfairly Persecuted Individual.


Based on what I read on Armstrong's blog and heard in the documentary, personally I believe he is innocent. He came cross as a Don Quijote type individual terms of his fight against the establishment, which indicates an idealistic but honest character, and I believe he was taking the plea bargain to end the nightmare of imprisonment. However, your point is very logical and seeing his action from that viewpoint makes actually a lot of sense. One would expect that a character like Armstrong who is so anti-establishment and fight to death against the corrupted political and financial system would stand up to prove to the public how corrupted the juridical system is, especially if such fight would clear his name. To clear his name would be quite essential for him who provides clients with financial services, not to mention he could make a strong argument to prove that the juridical system is corrupt. Very good point, why he doesn't fight on court by presenting evidence to clear his name?

I believe he is banned from financial services but he can offer general economic consulting, write a blog, give speeches, etc.

If he were able to overturn his conviction he could perhaps restore his ability to work in finance, which as you suggest offers yet another incentive to do it. Of course he is 65 years old, and may be content to write a blog and give speeches rather than try to build another financial firm.

(It may be too late for him to pursue his civil rights claims now, but it certainly wasn't in the past.)

My speculation as to how to resolve the conflict you propose (where he was originally innocent but doesn't continue to fight) is that he knows that much of his 12 year ordeal was largely the result of his own choices about how to fight the case, and those are the areas where any civil rights issues would lie. So he has no case. Remember, he appealed his contempt of court detention twice, and lost twice. Some aspects of this have been reviewed.

It is still unfortunate and tragic when someone who is innocent gets caught up in the legal system, but that doesn't rise to the level of civil rights violations, on its own.

EDIT: I had originally characterized his choices of how to fight the case as poor, but then I reconsidered. He did eventually get out after 12 years, got to keep his program it seems, etc. Given the original charges he was facing, that could possibly have been a good outcome. Again we don't know everything he knows so he may have done the best possible at the time.
4533  Economy / Economics / Re: Economic Totalitarianism on: October 09, 2015, 11:15:04 AM
To those who have given me good advice in this thread, I ask you if someone offered me a significant amount of money for my designs, such that I could pay off my angel investors, have sufficient funding to go take care of my health (e.g. seek proper diagnostics such as PCR test for chlamydophila pneumoniae to justify the antibiotic treatment), and have enough savings to be able to pay Philippines-level expenses for up to a couple of years until I could work again (maybe even for them?) once health stabilized, do you think I should take the deal if I felt they were sincere developers capable of finishing my project??

Yes if not only capable but also committed to doing so. That is a judgement call for you to make.

Maybe ask for a small stash of coins or other contingent upside as part of the deal (you can't ask for a lot if you are being paid out a significant amount of cash at this stage of development).

From what you report about your wildly fluctuating health there is a far greater likelihood that you don't finish it if you proceed with your current plan of doing it yourself. And also that your health spirals sharply downward without proper diagnosis and treatment, which would be a tragedy independent of the coin project if it can be avoided.

Pretty much done with the custom miner, iDunk on IRC is running a stability test.

EDIT: I should say milestone 2; the performance kinda sucks - needs more work.

Any details on performance? (And cpu load?)


Miner works now; the code for the stratum and general stuff is fully custom, as well. Clears 400H/s on 290X, meeting the first performance milestone, as the OpenCL has been improved.

Here it is: https://github.com/wolf9466/wolf-xmr-miner

Needs a little bit of WinSock code added before it's ready for a Windows build, but that's about it.

Is it possible to upload compiled miner somewhere or give instructions on how can I compile it?
Thanks for the great work!

Sure, compiling instructions right here: make
No, that's it. Clone the git and make.

I'm sorry, but I did not understand!
What is this "make"? No such executable file in you compilation!!!
If you a little more detail!

Make a build utility that uses Makefile as input. You get make as part of your OS (if your OS includes development tools) or along with however you do get your development tools (compilers, etc.) if it doesn't.

4537  Economy / Economics / Re: Martin Armstrong Discussion on: October 09, 2015, 09:58:42 AM
That is what I thought. You have no proof. Because there is no evidence in the public. Because there was no trial. Etc..

What I said on this thread that set you off was that he was convicted of criminal charges. Which he was. My proof is the court documents, duly recorded in the public record. That is sufficient. I have no interest in arguing the history of what he did or didn't do that led up to it, especially when I'm presented with arguments in the form of one-sided statements and selectively reported snippets of documents on his blog.

He had the option of a trial, not only during his plea hearing but during most of his seven year confinement for contempt. He chose not to avail himself of it, and instead to keep resisting the courts authority (which again is in some ways quite admirable). As such, he gets to live with his time in jail, his plea bargain, the conviction that is on his record as a consequence of the plea bargain, and the admission of guilt on his part that plea bargain entails.

He subsequently had the option to litigate, in court, his claims that his civil rights were violated (including but not limited to his claim that his admission was coerced and his claim that his right to a speedy trial was denied). In fact, he could have done this during his five years in prison after being convicted and sentenced. (Not like he had much else to do with his time.) If successful, not only could his conviction have been overturned and his admission of guilt erased, but he could also have been compensated, as many others have been under those circumstances (on occasion with large to extremely large cash awards). As such, his incentive to do so, if he has a legitimate case for it given the totality of the evidence that exists, should be obvious. He chose instead to pursue his grievance, not in court, but on a blog in the form of a public persona with the well-worn halo of being an Unfairly Persecuted Individual.

I'm not buying the persecution sympathy card. Even if the original charges were bogus (and I have no opinion on that), so much of what happened later was clearly of his own making and the result of his own decisions.

I'd further suggest that Martin knows more about the totality of the evidence that exists than you do, when you are relying on his selective disclosure in his blog, and he is not. He decided not to try to prove, in court, his (blog) claims of civil rights abuse. You were not the one to make that decision, as you are in no position to do so in an informed manner. You're a mere blog reader to him (in effect the one whose eyeballs he is being paid to deliver), not his lawyer and not even his friend. Remember that, and consider what you don't know (but he does!) in addition to what you do know.

I still find much of his economic analysis to be refreshingly competent and insightful. I am withholding judgement on his forecasting model and computer program until we see how this 2015.75 big turn plays out. I so far see a lot of interesting things happen more or less as predicted but no clear "big bang" event. At least not yet. The powderkeg of enormous debt is in place. The fuse may or may not be lit. Will it explode? We'll see.
4538  Economy / Economics / Re: Martin Armstrong Discussion on: October 09, 2015, 01:42:51 AM
other than some misleading statements about his past legal troubles

Prove he has committed a crime. If there is a case with public evidence then that should be trivially easy.

Legally speaking his guilty plea and conviction is sufficient proof, and public record of such.

Quote
(this exercise will prove you are making slanderous statement above)

If he wishes to make a claim against me for stating that he has had past legal troubles or that he was convicted of a crime, then I will be happy to provide him with my attorney's contact information. That should be fun, for about 15 minutes until the court record of his conviction is presented as evidence and the case gets thrown out.

"But, but, but I didn't do it! Constitutional rights!" doesn't work for half or more of the guys in the clink who say the same thing, and it doesn't work for him either.
4539  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: [XMR] Monero Speculation on: October 09, 2015, 01:26:58 AM
I think the real takeaway is that regardless of whether you mine or buy, get some..
  
If you could go back to 2012, would you haggle between the pros and cons of mining vs. buying?  No.  You would say, "I don't care what you do - get some bitcoins, keep them safe, and start thinking about building a business or service that will use them."  
  
Even by reading these words you are a player in a very complex game, but that doesn't mean you're entitled to win (regardless of easy winning may be).  So pull a Shia LaBouf

What is the purpose of compare Monero in 2015 to bitcion in 2012? Now its totally different crypto environment than before. For once, there are like 500 coins, and in 2012 one or two, and a tone of scams between then and now. I doubt that comparing xmr to bitcion from 2012 has any prediction value for what future holds for xmr.

There aren't 500 coins that matter at all, maybe 2-3 dozen at most, but I still agree with you the environment is very different.

smooth I'd really like for you to prove to me that Armstrong is a fraud.

Why? Did I claim that?

It's pretty vague too: "_____ is a fraud".

What does that even mean?

Quote
proof that he committed a crime and/or is a fraud in his current endeavors.

I see no evidence of any misconduct with respect to his current endeavors, other than some misleading statements about his past legal troubles that might arguably help sell his DVDs and seminars and whatever else it is he is selling these days (though I don't really think that is his intent). Nothing that rises to the level of "serious" though.

If I see something along those lines, I might look into it more closely if it interests me, but so far I haven't.
