How about people with color blindness?
one word: colorblind. i promise you all this looks quite different to my screwy eyes then to others.
Thank you for reminding us. I would suggest a two-fold way: Display some graphical representation of the address, any of the ones posted will do (as long as it works offline too!). As this has both color and symbol/pattern in it, even "colorblind" people would see a difference in many cases. Display the first 4 and last 4 letters of the address too. This both helps "colorblind" folks as well as make (close) collisions of the graphic less likely. Depending on the graphical keyspace it could be too easy to generate the whole set once for addresses the attacker controls, and then replace the valid one with one which has the same or similar symbol. This might not be possible with 8 additional digits per symbol, but I didn't calculate through it.. Ente

Na, wenn Seeder nicht TroLanschGo ist, brauchen wir hier auch nicht mit/gegen Seeder diskutieren :-) Wenn sich vernünftige Regeln, Zeitfenster und Escrows fänden, würde ich auf die Integrität der Entwickler wetten. Und ich wette sonst nie.
Überhaupt, lächerlicher Gedanke, das Ganze. Was ist mit Offline Wallets? Was ist mit den unzähligen nicht-Satoshi Clients? Am besten fand ich ja "die Devs hacken sich reich, dann machen die die Lücke zu, und schwupps, keinerlei Imageschaden!" *kicher*
Aber eigentlich.. ist es mir nicht mal die 30 sec wert, mich dort im Forum anzumelden.

Thank you for your project, Ian! You are both dedicated with the project itself as with keeping us updated here, thank you! :-)
Now there is somewhat low resonance.. I believe you started with details too quick. Sure, I enjoy talking about "shall we use ssl- or gpg-encryption?" as much as everyone else around here.. But somehow, in my view, you missed to state what exactly your project does, and in what points it does better than what we have now. That is, in a few, simple, totally non-tech sentences. A "conclusion" for executive level decision. Like, you know, people first decide if a tool seems useful, and then have a second look if it is safe and sane ;-)
..keep rollin! :-)

Cut a wound in your arm down to the bone and make notches on the bone instead of copper wire. When the wound heals, these notches might be visible on an x-ray machine. This might be a good option for an apocalypse. You would be able to fashion your own x-ray machine using parts from old microwaves.
What a nonsense! Oh, wait, in fact you really might build bind of an x-ray from a microwave magneton! Go ahead! Post pics, you can blur out the actual code in your bone too ;-) Ente

Rom - Touristen können seit Jahresbeginn im Vatikan nicht mehr mit Kredit- oder EC-Karten bezahlen, sondern nur noch in bar. Die italienische Zentralbank hat die Zahlung mit elektronischen Zahlungsmitteln vorläufig ausgesetzt und beruft sich dabei auf Anti-Geldwäsche-Vorschriften, wie mehrere italienische Zeitungen berichteten. Anti-Geldwäsche und deshalb nur noch Bargeld? Muahaha! Das ist das Beste, was ich je vom Vatikan gehört habe! Herrlich! Ente

[..] By no means will Bitcoin 100's work would have been done in vain, for its achievements will be used to jump-start a newly named entity, one of which will be registered as a 501c(3). The main reason for a name change is that incorporating the word Bitcoin into the name of an entity designed purposely as a charitable organization seems counter-productive. We don't see a PayPal Charity, Dollar Charity, Dwollar Charity, etc., but if we did, such entities wouldn't pass the smell test in the real world, although they may do okay as micro-niches. As it stands now, Bitcoin 100 falls into said category, and a grander charitable organization to further the Bitcoin ideal is warranted.
At 53 (minus 60+ days), I'm dedicating the rest of my life toward such a endeavor. At 10,000 posts (minus 97), it's time to get down to business regarding Bitcoin. That said, I'm going to PM a select few to get their opinions on a name I have in mind, starting with Josh at BFL. I would trust that done of them would register the valuable (I believe) domain name during the opinion seeking stage. [..]
This is big, exciting news! All of us are excited about Bitcoin, but not that many are dedicated to bring it forward. These long-term plans surely are still in an early stage - but I am already totally convinced that it will be a big success, and one of the bigger puzzlepieces to Bitcoin's successfull future! I was excited on new year's eve 2011/2012. I still am excited. But this time, you can watch a lot of stuff being done! Bitcoin gained a lot of traction, coverage, professionalism, structure. I can almost feel the tension! And Bruno, Bitcoin100, is exactly the kind of progress I am talking about! Chapeau, my friend! Ente

Der Vollständigkeit halber: Das nächste Treffen findet am Donnerstag, den 3. Januar 2013 um 19 Uhr im room77 statt.
Bis 2013!
Happy new year all around! Ich finde ja den vierten Blockchain-Geburtstag morgen viel interessanter und feierlicher als Weihnachten und Silvester zusammen, sehr schön, dass der auf den Stammtisch morgen fällt . Ich sehe mal zu ob ich noch 'ne Torte mit vier Kerzen gebacken kriege, habe mindestens vier live Musiker bestellt, es gibt Quadriple Bypass Burger, vier kleine Blöcke Eis in jedem Logdrink, frittierte Blockschokolade und vier Pamperos zum Preis von einem . Soll ich Tisch vier statt wie sonst zwei freihalten? Bis morgen! Joe Hui, noch ausufernder als sonst schon? Das wird ein Spaß! :-) Tisch vier oder zwei? Na wir bekommen ja wohl mindestens alle beide voll! Bis morgen! Ente

Actually, I think you just need to recompile. Just type "make". And you shouldn't do a checkout on the remotes/origin directly. Just "git checkout dev" then do a "git pull origin dev".
Otherwise, that's the right spirit! Just compile it first, *then* look for bugs :-)
dont forget the make clean Whoops! Thank you, you two! Running on dev now! :-) Ente
