Oh yeah, sure. That girl who wanted to go to school actually just wanted to be shot. And those girls who go outside without their man or without wearing proper coverings just want to get harassed and beat up. It's just like those girls who dress too sexy just want to be raped.


But when America gets involved, she's just "collateral damage" and won't be going to school tomorrow.

I'm sorry, you can't impose freedom on others by force. They need to find it for themselves. Then you can support them when they come to it. The whole thing is being driven by American political and economical agendas and not "for freedom".

In before ban on pressure cookers.


Ban assault pressure cookers!



(Amusingly enough, when I was searching for the image for this, I found it in another place where someone had thought of the same thing)

As far as I can see the coinbase transaction outputs are included alright, but they should only be spendable after 100 confirmations (network rule). BitcoinQT's UI only allows you to spend them after 120 confirmations. BitcoinSpinner doesn't treat them any different than normal transaction outputs, and there is the problem.
My best guess is that if you try to spend them before 100  confirmations your tx will be rejected by the network.

To fix this I'll have to extend the API and add an isCoinbase boolean to com.bccapi.bitlib.model.UnspentTransactionOutput, use this to color the transactions in the Tx History UI and not count them towards your balance until they have matured. This sounds simple enough, but will require changing the data model on the backend, a rescan of the blockchain, and an API breaking change. I'll look into it, but it won't be until after the San Jose conference.


It seems like the balance is correct but I have some quite old mining transactions that just don't show up in the transaction history. I've not had any issues spending but I keep a decent balance on there and the amount coming in from mining is fairly small compared.

My above was just from reading the source from the svn repository. I really didn't want to go farther without all the tools that make android easier. I'll try and get chance to have a closer look later though it seems I have an overfull plate these days.

I'm done trading.

I'm mostly a holder. But I tried trading a few of my hard-earned coins. I made a couple of bad trades and am down a little on those. No biggie, learning curve. However, what has really put me off is that while $ have lost $x through my bad trades, I have been unable to realize at least $x/2 through Gox being shitty and have $x*2 out in limbo, likely never to be seen again with bitcoin-24. I'll still be cheering from the sidelines but dammit, there's nothing more frustrating to me than not being able to use your money when you want to.
5305  Economy / Speculation / Re: sleeping with an open sell order, anyone? on: April 17, 2013, 03:38:48 PM
It all depends. If you are constantly changing your orders, you are chasing the market which will have mixed success. You want to be ahead of the market.
5306  Economy / Speculation / Re: Wall Observer - MtGoxUSD wall movement tracker - Hardcore on: April 17, 2013, 03:36:56 PM
What intrigues me is that yesterday we have triple more volume and no lag.

That maybe because what Gox said is truth: people are buying right now yet they didn't cancel their orders at lower prices, so the number of checks Gox needs to execute goes up multi-fold. In a panic sell like yesterday people would not have expected to have their orders at higher prices filled so they simply cancel them(besides those that are backed up with funds).

With proper design, those checks far outside the center would not even be being compared against. I also suspect that the trading engine is doing more than just trading. Kind-of a no-no.

I can't even get on right now. Not even the homepage. It's a circus.
5307  Economy / Speculation / Re: Wall Observer - MtGoxUSD wall movement tracker - Hardcore on: April 17, 2013, 03:35:10 PM
I refuse to use an exchange with more than a few seconds of lag.

Why is it that the Bears always try to make it so that "the lag is causing prices to go up"? Is it not obvious to everyone that lag causes the prices to go down? Lag creates fear, fear causes selling etc.

I think at first, lag's outcome is unpredictable. Then come the sell-offs.

We were in a downward channel for like a week, no real bulltraps from what I see. Now we are in an upward channel and broke straight through the previous downward channel after what many are thinking was a double bottom in the 50s.

I look at the past 5 days and I see a bulltrap everyday.  Based on the selloff that just happened this one might be about to break.  We are at 92.9 right now for reference.



LOL. Don't you see some change and some difference in your "bullcrap" pattern? Could you possibly observe how "lower lows and lower highs" has changed to "higher highs and higher lows"?


The pointy bits also switched from the bottom to the top of the line. I'm not sure what's going to happen but I don't think I'm going to be able to buy any of my bitcoins back at the price I sold them. So I bought some Iron Maiden tickets instead Cheesy

I am wasting time watching bitcoinity to see if there is another celebration movie/picture when we cross $100 going upwards again...

There wasn't the last couple of times...
5310  Economy / Speculation / Re: Wall Observer - MtGoxUSD wall movement tracker - Softcore Lounge on: April 17, 2013, 01:54:44 PM
Hah, my mistake. It's Gox. I can't buy back in cause it's fucking *not working*. I think I should just buy some mining equipment instead.

I think Adam has made a rod for his back if he's intending to keep the hardcore thread clean. His choice. But I miss the old thread. Let's make this one its equal, wall pics & all.
5312  Economy / Speculation / Re: Wall Observer - MtGoxUSD wall movement tracker - Softcore Lounge on: April 17, 2013, 01:48:39 PM
Wah. I'm sorry I ever doubted you, Bitcoin...

Only question now is whether to be happy with the profit I took on the few bitcoins I cashed out or buy back in higher...

Who am I kidding?

Those who supplied the miners during the gold rush made the most money.

Actually, I'd bet it was those who taxed both the miners and the suppliers... Wink

...or by the family, or by their investments, or by charity.

Family and charity may be unreliable. Investments are probably OK but if investments are not a good choice, should you not be able to hold your money in currency and not have it robbed by inflation bandits?

No you should not be able to. You should either save it (let the bank invest it), or invest it yourself in a very diversified portfolio. If you hide it under the mattress or in gold silver or bitcoins, you deserve to lose it since you're basically making a bet that society is gonna fail, yet too dumb to realize all these items will also be worthless in that case.

Having a very small portion of your net worth in bitcoins or precious metals is reasonable, as long as you're prepared to lose it all. Anyone who bought-to-hold or sold bitcoin in the last 4 months has done nothing to contribute to the future of bitcoin, sorry but its true.

Money is delayed fulfillment for work or services performed. By deliberately devaluing that, your are stealing from that effort. Did you consider that by not immediately spending that money, you are allowing the economy to grow in a healthy way by allowing resources that you would otherwise be claiming, perhaps wastefully, to be used in more productive ways.

Be interesting where the next week or two takes us for sure....




I can understand support lines and such... but this is just silly shapes in the sky.

Yeah. I think the batman one was better.

I think you can run multiple instances of cgminer and have a different pool for each. Just disable whatever GPU is supposed to be going to the other pool.

Or you could do what I do when I need to mine a little on another pool for whatever reason, disable the GPU and run the miner directly.

I had a prod around the source. I think the transaction history page is behaving properly (Though it would be better if mined coins were shown differently than transferred coins). It's either the server or the part that reads from the server and parses it out.
