At this point, as the hours pass and my curiosity grows, I am waiting for Theymos to explain in layman terms what happened.
The changes which precipitated this were pretty boring: I'm making tweaks to the backend infrastructure which will make things a bit faster and more reliable. (But don't expect huge improvements.) As part of this, in order to ensure fast and reliable database replication, over the past ~week I've been modifying all of the database tables to have primary keys. In the case of the merit_ledger table, I did this by adding a new "ledger ID" column. Adding this column is what broke the sMerit calculation. That's a big hint, so if you still want to try finding the bug, go back and give it a try now, because I'm going to give the answer in the next paragraph. The bug was in this query: select time, amount from merit_ledger where ID_MEMBER_FROM=$user and time>={$sourceAmtLog[0][0]}The code after goes through each send from oldest to newest, and "replays" it to see whether it was using the sender's source-merit or sMerit. But critically, the query doesn't actually specify an ORDER BY, so the order in which rows are returned is undefined. Previously, it was just by chance that rows were being returned in the intended order. But adding any key, and especially a primary key, is likely to change the order in which rows are returned when there is no ORDER BY. As a result, code which was working 100% correctly all of a sudden started working 100% incorrectly: the section of code after the query was just producing complete nonsense. I thought that it was an interesting bug, since one change far away broke something which seemed largely unrelated, and even though the code is self-evidently wrong, it's still fairly difficult to find the bug if you don't have some hints.

Could you tell us what did you change?
That'd probably make it too obvious to be fun.  There is definitely a self-evident bug in the code I posted. So I thought the easiest fix is to cap `$sendableUserMerit` at 0 after subtracting `$excessSent` in the source branch. I may be wrong though and I don't mind an hint.
That would prevent it from giving negative numbers, but it still wouldn't give correct numbers.

It should be fixed now, sorry about that! I've been making a number of little tweaks over the past few days which could cause hard-to-predict bugs, so let me know if you see any other buggy behavior. Can anyone find the bug? This function worked for years, but then I did something very far away (i.e. I didn't change this function at all) which broke it. function calculate_smerit($user){ $sendableUserMerit = db_query("select sum(amount) from merit_ledger where ID_MEMBER_TO=$user", __FILE__, __LINE__); if(mysql_num_rows($sendableUserMerit)) $sendableUserMerit = (int)(mysql_fetch_array($sendableUserMerit)[0]/2); else $sendableUserMerit = 0; // merit_sources is a log of when users' source merit was changed: "source merit becomes 'amount' at timestamp 'time'" $q = db_query("select time, amount from merit_sources where ID_MEMBER=$user order by time asc", __FILE__, __LINE__); if(!mysql_num_rows($q)) { $sent = db_query("select sum(amount) from merit_ledger where ID_MEMBER_FROM=$user", __FILE__, __LINE__); if(mysql_num_rows($sent)) $sent = (int)mysql_fetch_array($sent)[0]; else $sent = 0; return array($sendableUserMerit - $sent, 0); } // this user is/was a source, so the calculation is more complex $sourceAmtLog = array(); while($row=mysql_fetch_array($q)) $sourceAmtLog[] = $row; mysql_free_result($q);
$timeWindow = 60*60*24*30; list($excessSent) = mysql_fetch_array(db_query(" select sum(amount) from merit_ledger where ID_MEMBER_FROM=$user and time<{$sourceAmtLog[0][0]}", __FILE__, __LINE__)); if(empty($excessSent)) $excessSent = 0;
$sourceMeritSendsRange = array(); $sourceMeritSendsRangeSum = 0; $sourcePos = 0;
$q = db_query("select time, amount from merit_ledger where ID_MEMBER_FROM=$user and time>={$sourceAmtLog[0][0]}", __FILE__, __LINE__); $sends = array(); while($row = mysql_fetch_array($q)) $sends[] = $row; mysql_free_result($q);
foreach($sends as $send) { if($sourcePos < count($sourceAmtLog)-1 && $send[0] >= $sourceAmtLog[$sourcePos+1][0]) { $sourcePos++; $sourceMeritSendsRangeSum=0; $sourceMeritSendsRange = array(); } while(count($sourceMeritSendsRange)>0 && ($send[0] - $sourceMeritSendsRange[0][0] > $timeWindow)) { $sourceMeritSendsRangeSum -= array_shift($sourceMeritSendsRange)[1]; } $remainingSource = max($sourceAmtLog[$sourcePos][1]-$sourceMeritSendsRangeSum, 0); $excessSent += max($send[1]-$remainingSource, 0); $sourceMeritSendAmount = min($remainingSource, $send[1]); if($sourceMeritSendAmount>0) { $sourceMeritSendsRange[] = array($send[0], $sourceMeritSendAmount); $sourceMeritSendsRangeSum += $sourceMeritSendAmount; } }
$sendableUserMerit -= $excessSent; if($sourcePos != count($sourceAmtLog)-1) { $sourcePos = count($sourceAmtLog)-1; $sourceMeritSendsRangeSum=0; $sourceMeritSendsRange = array(); } while(count($sourceMeritSendsRange) > 0 && (time() - $sourceMeritSendsRange[0][0] > $timeWindow)) { $sourceMeritSendsRangeSum -= array_shift($sourceMeritSendsRange)[1]; }
$sendableSourceMerit = max($sourceAmtLog[$sourcePos][1] - $sourceMeritSendsRangeSum, 0); return array($sendableUserMerit, $sendableSourceMerit); }

Due to inactivity, all of the non-English versions were deprecated, and are now in read-only mode. There'd have to be a very significant amount of interest to reactivate any of them or add new ones. Inactive wikis are a potential hazard, since nobody's around to remove spam links or update dangerously-outdated info.

You have successfully blocked the user from sending you message, even if you see a different username in "ignore" feild. Some users in the forum have different username and display name. You entered the display name of the user and after you clicked on the display name, the forum added the username in ignore feild.
I think you should be able to add the display name of the user, if you type it manually.
Right. This is confusing, though, so I changed it to insert the display name now. Forum-wide, the display name is always supposed to be the name displayed, though the username can be used as an alias in some places.

I have a question about the Type 3 Flag: This user violated a written contract with me, resulting in damages. What if a service makes contradicting claims on their website, and only one of those claims would mean a written contract was violated, while the other claim supports what they did? Would that still qualify as breaking a written contract? For context, see this post. Voters should read the flag allegation-statement and decide (with the same mindset as a judge in a legal case) whether it's true or false. Especially when it comes down to edge cases like that, people can validly have different opinions as to the truth. My personal opinion: I lean toward thinking that a type-2 is more appropriate because advertising which contradicts the ToS is in my eyes more of an informal/implied agreement than a contract. But I wouldn't say that a type-3 would be egregiously wrong or anything.

Thanks for playing, everyone! I was excited to be able to see an o_e_l_e_o with ESG and PowerGlove yesterday. Below are the final scores. A day or two after the end of the main event, all pMerit balances were cleared, but after that, there were no other pMerit adjustments. Since all of the bugs were also worked out by this point, these scores are probably more representative of actual skill (and/or persistence) than the scores after the main event. | ESG | 17855 | | PowerGlove | 11371 | | ibminer | 5119 | | Cyrus | 2366 | | d57heinz | 1709 | | BlTCOINPostage | 1651 | | Avox | 1600 | | KosmoKisa | 1504 | | XICO | 1474 | | hopenotlate | 1411 | | theymos | 1168 | | infinitesimal | 1146 | | mirtotanota | 1108 | | Jewan420 | 1093 | | Mitchell | 1055 | | iv4n | 1045 | | joker_josue | 1036 | | pdneves | 1022 | | Youngrebel | 1016 | | kingbj21 | 1015 | | jackielove4u | 1012 | | hisslyness | 1009 | | mocacinno | 1007 | | garlonicon | 1007 | | Thamizhan | 1006 | | Findingnemo | 1006 | | GIF-JOBS | 1006 | | ranochigo | 1004 | | JohnGalt | 1003 | | vd309 | 1003 | | Behat1981 | 1003 | | just4kicks | 1003 | | daverick_cgn | 1003 | | Joca97 | 1002 | | Sledge0001 | 1002 | | rohang | 1002 | | Tazzy4050 | 1002 | | bitrsanch | 1002 | | farou9 | 1002 | | eminent1 | 1002 | | Normalize | 1002 | | MaxAlphax | 1001 | | khaled0111 | 1001 | | Ulven | 1001 | | Tebe654 | 1001 | | Koceila | 1001 | | Rhema_Artz | 1001 | | AlphaBoy | 1001 | | Papablo1708 | 1001 | | xOrpian | 1001 | | July_Alaska | 1001 | | Hueristic | 1000 | | bubbaj | 1000 | | JollyGood | 1000 | | Steamtyme | 1000 | | famososMuertos | 1000 | | Unsoldier | 1000 | | CR_Anders | 1000 | | Frankolala | 1000 | | smwangi | 1000 | | KFC786 | 1000 | | Suzume | 1000 | | Faizan Zen | 1000 | | Just Say | 1000 | | yamin_galib | 1000 | | Charltonleo2 | 1000 | | Hell Boy | 1000 | | hawkqs | 1000 | | jackg | 999 | | Strongkored | 999 | | Wapfika | 999 | | Seniorbrovai | 999 | | Bitcoin_people | 999 | | Mohamedlaoui | 999 | | Leomiles | 999 | | omargg 55 | 999 | | Sd49budz | 999 | | babo | 998 | | romero121 | 998 | | mistercoin | 998 | | pawel7777 | 998 | | Pascal Parvex | 998 | | machasm | 998 | | K4C | 998 | | AbuBhakar | 998 | | oleg1984a | 998 | | DireWolfM14 | 998 | | PrimeNumber7 | 998 | | Danieleemilio | 998 | | Stalker22 | 998 | | Nothingtodo | 998 | | Humble Bitcoiners | 998 | | india012 | 998 | | CryptSafe | 998 | | Uruhara | 998 | | Urfijaved | 998 | | Pablo-wood | 998 | | Cpt_reader | 998 | | StealthsNet | 998 | | criptoevangelista | 998 | | N.O | 998 | | Jamestown70 | 998 | | Lucysathish | 998 | | Olamidetechie | 998 | | Dark.Look | 998 | | safyan | 998 | | Cypto2020 | 998 | | Miramax12 | 998 | | Borall12 | 998 | | hoangty | 998 | | ggtomeh | 998 | | NodePhantom | 998 | | elsoleado | 998 | | Dup9601@gmail.com | 998 | | Samang | 998 | | user3 | 998 | | Mackoshi | 998 | | versaceicy | 998 | | Ybs1p | 998 | | Welsh | 997 | | mv1986 | 997 | | o48o | 997 | | Aikidoka | 997 | | hurr1cane | 997 | | goldkingcoiner | 997 | | rony01941 | 997 | | Bitcoin_Arena | 997 | | fillippone | 997 | | Issa56 | 997 | | Rikafip | 997 | | NNRR | 997 | | Charles-Tim | 997 | | smmgoal | 997 | | teleone | 997 | | baeva | 997 | | Ryu_Ar1 | 997 | | HelliumZ | 997 | | LivanoBerkbit | 997 | | Leahized | 997 | | Platinumys | 997 | | Cryptohygenic | 997 | | xmrhopium | 997 | | Rappitman | 997 | | Bluebird1357 | 997 | | Ajam17700 | 997 | | DVVRG | 997 | | dimonstration | 996 | | therealfalcon | 996 | | ovcijisir | 996 | | Liliana1304 | 996 | | goldenmonke | 996 | | Jostern | 996 | | Hdhdhehehhe | 996 | | BayAreaCoins | 995 | | Mohon561 | 995 | | Abdulzuruku01 | 995 | | user_not_here | 995 | | Yoona_As | 994 | | RafiAhmed629 | 994 | | blomen | 994 | | Reham00 | 992 | | Bhadmhi | 991 | | Bluedrem | 991 | | Ginz_24 | 986 | | iron77 | 983 | | Omikifuse | 982 | | drpxxx | 965 | | ChiBitCTy | 964 | | Cointxz | 942 | | Obari | 938 | | Hatchy | 931 | | Beparanf | 930 | | Swaggman | 913 | | vittosport | 862 | | finitemaz | 814 | | JayJuanGee | 717 | | Ricardo11 | 711 | | sargon_silda | 643 | | Jessie2121 | 630 | | tread93 | 625 | | xhomerx10 | 599 | | L4rs_ | 347 | | 5tift | 242 | | edy_58 | 192 | | AG0RA | 191 | | TheButterZone | 150 | | Vaskiy | 150 | | Hermes Mercury | 150 | | Mbitr | 150 | | mikeywith | 150 | | clear cookies | 150 | | Majestic-milf | 150 | | Mia Chloe | 150 | | Naser9220 | 150 | | TalQ8 | 150 | | meser# | 149 | | Sexylizzy2813 | 149 |

My main question is: Is it allowed to run a contest or prediction here on Bitcointalk about when mixers will be allowed again? (The contest will not mention any website of mixer)
A policy prediction market, I like it! That's fine. Note however that I may soften the ban over time, in two or more phases. For example, I may remove the wordfilter much sooner than any other aspects of the ban.
|
|
|
I'm glad you enjoyed it! But I will be taking it down in roughly 12 hours.

Probably it was marked as bad because it wasn't clear that a Stake account could be a KYC-verified account. I had to Google it to find out that "Stake level 2 verified" requires a photo ID and should therefore be considered a KYC-verified account. So you're right: it should be deleted.
Thanks!

Good point. I went through and removed several inactive moderators from various boards. Thanks!

If the reports regarding 4chan's operations are true, then bitcointalk.org's security is much better than that. Other than SMF 1.x, which we maintain directly, I believe that all of the software we're using is maintained and kept up-to-date. We also offer security bounties. But security can't be guaranteed. The last forum hack was apparently caused by a vulnerability in helpdesk software used by our Web host, not even any failure on our end. It's very difficult to protect against that sort of thing. And zero-day exploits in our custom code, SMF, or any of the software we rely on are certainly possible, even if we try our best to protect against them. The best thing you can do to reduce the damage in case of another bitcointalk.org hack is to delete your old PMs. If a PM is in an active user's inbox, then we can't encrypt it, since otherwise the PM-search feature would be way too slow. (One of the top new features on my to-do list is to allow for exporting PMs into a format that eg. Thunderbird can open. The code is 90% done for this. Then it'll be easier for users to purge PMs from their forum inboxes.) You can also enable limited retention in your settings if you consider your IP logs to be very sensitive, though note that this will make it very difficult for you to ever recover your account, since IP logs are a very important piece of data for the recovery team.
I'm really sad that 4chan is down. Hopefully it comes back soon. Even though I haven't been very active there recently, I consider myself a 4channer more than I consider myself an American: it's one of my cultural bedrocks. I'd probably personally contribute quite a bit of money to some project to revive it, if necessary. (Though long-term, we really all need to be moving to decentralized forums. The world is getting more and more anti-free-speech, and in the not-too-distant future there aren't going to be many "territories of freedom" where free centralized forums can operate.)

That is an extremely good development! I've also been pleased to see several other actions like that, such as removing Tornado Cash from the sanctions list. However, President Trump has only been in office for a few months, and the actual effects of these stated policy positions won't be clear for a while. The Biden administration also said that mixers aren't necessarily illegal, and that they weren't anti-crypto. Actions and time will speak louder than words. So I probably won't consider reversing the mixer ban until Trump has been in office for a full year, and we have a fuller picture of how his administration actually operates in these areas.

April Fools! Thanks to everyone who played, and special thanks to PowerGlove for coding up this whole game, and ibminer for creating the art. ibminer has told me that he plans to soon make real-life versions of the cards and chips used in this game, so keep your eyes open for that if you like collectibles! Since several people requested it, I'll keep the game running at https://bitcointalk.org/poker.php, but only for a limited time, not permanently. I plan on taking it down at the end of April, or if it breaks in a way that isn't trivial to fix; whichever comes first. You should also not be surprised if the pMerit balances get wiped every now and then. There were several adjustments and chaotic periods while we tried to get the economics right, but just for fun, here are everyone's final pMerit scores.

(The below is an April Fools joke.) The whole Merit system hasn't been working great. On the one hand, spammers often manage to get merit; but on the other hand, very-good posters sometimes struggle to get any. Therefore, we're going to switch to a totally-skill-based method of ranking-up: pMerit. The next 24 hours will be a transition period, where you will slowly be de-ranked over the course of the day if you don't earn enough pMerit. But if you get enough pMerit, you can rank-up from Newbie to Legendary right away. Everyone starts out with 1000 pMerit. You earn more pMerit by taking other users' pMerit in Merit Poker, proving your superior intelligence. Thanks to PowerGlove for coding Merit Poker, and ibminer for designing the cards and table! Rules of Merit PokerMerit Poker is similar but not identical to Texas Hold 'Em. If you're familiar with that, then just know that this has pot-limit betting with a 5-pMerit ante and no blinds. If you're not familiar with Texas Hold 'Em, here's a quick overview of this kind of card game: This is a betting game, where your only choices involve betting. Your hand is the strongest five-card poker hand taken from your two secret cards plus the five public community cards. Generally, you should bet more if you think that your hand is definitely the best out of everyone at the table, and you should fold if you think that your hand is not the best. Though you can also try to deceive the other players. The game will tell you what strength hand you have. From worst to best, they are: high card, pair, two pair, three-of-a-kind, straight, flush, full house, four-of-a-kind, and straight flush. If two players have the same-strength hand, the player with the higher card within that hand wins. The game proceeds in rounds. First, in the pre-flop round, you'll see only your secret two cards, and you'll have to bet based on that. Then three of the community cards will be revealed, and in the flop round you'll have to bet based on the strength of the three community cards plus your two secret cards. Then one more community card will be revealed, and in the turn round you'll bet based on the available 4+2 cards. That's repeated again in the river round, where you'll bet based on all 5+2 cards. Finally, the player who actually has the best hand wins the pot. But if at any point all but one player folds, then the remaining player wins the pot. "Check" means that you are continuing the game without paying any additional bet. "Call" means that a previous player has bet some amount, and you are matching their bet, putting more pMerit into the pot in order to continue playing. "Bet" means that you are increasing the amount people have to put into the pot this round, signalling that you think you have a particularly strong hand. "Raise" means that you are increasing the amount people have to put into the pot this round beyond even what somebody else bet in the same round. "Fold" means that you are quitting the current game: you lose what you paid into the pot so far, but you don't have to pay the current bet, which could've caused you to lose even more. There are some special chat commands if you want to adjust the graphics: /t+, /t-, and /t= respectively make the table bigger, smaller, and the default size. Similarly, /c+, /c-, and /c= respectively make the controls bigger, smaller, and the default size. Have fun!

What's the verdict on this case, in which a mixer URL is used as part of an escrow contract? Not allowed: It's not allowed for mixers to do giveaways, sponsorships, bounties, paid posts, or paid ads in posts. If a thread is for paying people to do something for a mixer, then that's also not allowed.
The thread is strongly linked to someone being paid to do something for a mixer, and it's also an advertisement/paid-post.

I thought about this some more, and I made another change: it's now "you need 4 different people to send you merit for posts you made in the last 4 years". Otherwise there may have been too much incentive for people to go back and merit old posts of inactive people who have trust lists they agree with, which would be a ridiculous outcome.
This doesn't change the outcome very much: as of now, the eligible-to-be-voters number drops from 4118 to 3939.
