1321  Bitcoin / Development & Technical Discussion / Re: Transaction fees magically appearing, how to account for them? on: June 23, 2011, 03:01:15 AM
Is there really the possibility free small transactions will hang around waiting for confirmations forever? I thought transactions that were waiting for confirmations for too long automaticly gained more priority regardless of the size or even presence of tx fees....

It would be fun to read what they say about these events in the history books (or whatever they use by then) of some hundred years in the future

Ok, mine is approximatly 0.186836881 USD (converting from BRL), plus a shitload of taxes; i'm not sure if my math is right, but seems that with taxes it is around 0.278036681 USD

Of course, there is always the option of using gene therapy to write the keys somewhere in your junk DNA

There was a guy offering to do the exchange manually, and i've been hearing about this exchange service called Virwox that does exchange between virtual worlds' currencies as well as Bitcoins; never tried either of them though

I haven't managed to institute enough discipline on myself to learn Lojban yet, i would like to though

ps:before anyone asks, no, i won't be paying for Lojban lessons, i don't got enough BTC right now to be comfortable with spending in such things

We just need to convince enough people, and you'll be able to sell 1BTC for a hundred bucks before xmass

I use Password Maker ; it's way easier to remember a few settings than to remember hundreds of secure passwords, and i don't have to worry about someone finding my passwords stored anywhere (well, except in the databases of unsecure sites)

Btw, if anyone wants it, here's a little thing i sketched together in Python (i hardly know how to program in Python, there are probably tons of of ways this could be improved) to assist me with playing game mode 1:



Code:
rango = 100.0 #The biggest number possible

maxtries = 6 #how many tries before you loose


#####################################
#No need to modify the lines bellow
#####################################

lastguess = rango / 2

guesscount = 0



if __name__ == '__main__':
    done = 0
   
    print "Try: " + str(lastguess)
    while not(done):
           

        result = input("Is the goal (1)Higher or (0)Lower than that? ")
        i = 0
        adder = rango / 2
        for i in range(0,guesscount+1):
            adder = adder / 2
        if result == 1:
            lastguess = lastguess + adder
           
        elif result == 0:
            lastguess = lastguess - adder
           
        guesscount = guesscount +1
       
        if guesscount+1 >= maxtries:  #comment out these two lines
            done = 1                # to keep trying after you loose

        if guesscount == maxtries-1:
            print  "Last try *crosses fingers*" "\nOk, try: " + str(lastguess) #+ " adder " + str(adder)
        elif guesscount < maxtries-1:
            print  "Tries left: " + str(maxtries - guesscount) + "\nOk, try: " + str(lastguess) #+ " adder " + str(adder)
        else:
            print  "Ran out of tries :(" + "\nOk, try: " + str(lastguess) #+ " adder " + str(adder)
       
    pass

I think their position is, if people don't fix the security holes, they will penetrate and make a mess to prove it needs fixing
1336  Economy / Marketplace / Re: Number Guessing Game [BETA] [Automated] [Freeplay avaliable!] Please test! on: June 22, 2011, 10:50:47 PM
Btw, i think if you make game #1 allow for 7 tries i'll be able to win 100% of the time, i'm not completly sure though
1337  Economy / Marketplace / Re: Number Guessing Game [BETA] [Automated] [Freeplay avaliable!] Please test! on: June 22, 2011, 10:38:53 PM
Could you make it so it reveals the secret number if the player gets it wrong in all tries? Kinda annoying to try to guess and then not only i don't win but i can't find out what the number was.
edit: nvm, found it



Also, how about a third error reporting mode besides right/wrong and lower/higher: colder/warmer (like that kids play, you're getting warmer, warmer, warmer, colder, colder, warmer; if you're closer than your last guess it's warmer, if your further from the target you're colder) ? Though with this one the first try would still only be right or wrong, no relative position since there wasn't any position before the first; or perhaps call it just "warm" and "cold" for the first guess depending on whether the guess was less or more distant from the target than a third of the total range or somthing like that.
1338  Economy / Economics / When do you expect and when do you want BTC to go over 30 bucks again? on: June 22, 2011, 09:53:00 PM
There are a couple threads asking about prices, i'll make this one asking about dates


I'm not sure on an exact date, but i'm confident we'll cross 30 again before the end of the year.


But i would rather if by the end of next week we were already there.




How about y'all?
1339  Economy / Economics / Is Bitcoin placebo-money? on: June 22, 2011, 09:44:31 PM
Would it be enough if a big enough number of people believe Bitcoins are worth X amount of USD, or just believing in the price isn't enough to sustain it? What about the future if enough people believe Bitcoins are gonna be worth at least X more USD in six months, just by having enough people like that using and talking about Bitcoins would the price go in that direction or more than that would be necessary?
