kanzurefwiw here's some stuff about DNA: http://diyhpl.us/~bryan/papers2/DNA/00:01
kanzuremy favorite at the moment is http://diyhpl.us/~bryan/papers2/DNA/Large-scale%20de%20novo%20DNA%20synthesis:%20technologies%20and%20applications%20-%20Church%20-%202014.pdf but this is not about enzymatic dna editing (which i leave to https://groups.google.com/group/enzymaticsynthesis for the most part)00:03

fluffyponygmaxwell: on the other hand, I'm grateful that the RBF discussion has opened people up to understanding that you can't universally order the mempool, and that we wouldn't need miners if we could02:36
gmaxwellis anyone actually learning that?02:37
fluffyponywell, I get the feeling that a lot of the "0-conf-is-safe" proponents misunderstand the gravity of the situation02:37
fluffyponybut there seems to be some coming around02:37
gmaxwellYes. absolutely.02:37
gmaxwellwell mostly I see people who go "duh" and people who don't get it and are digging in. :(02:37
fluffyponymy favourite are the people that go "we'll just run XT, because I know they'll reject the RBF PR"02:37
sipa0-conf is safe in the same way that CSS protection for DVD's safe02:38
fluffyponylol02:38
sipameaning: until someone teaches everyone how to do it02:38

* Lightsword considers enabling full RBF on his pool02:42
Lightswordat least XT is nice enough to forward double spends to pools :P02:43
gmaxwellsipa: I was having a frustating conversation on reddit with some people who were fixated on easy, where they thought opt in rbf was so much easier than concurrent transmission double spends.02:43
gmaxwellwas hard to not just respond "holy crap, I'll go write the tools now, so we can stop having this argument! okay?!"02:43
fluffyponygmaxwell: your first problem was going on Reddit...02:44

TaekI've seen a lot of good things happen on reddit, and benefitted from many of the comments dropped by the core devs08:36
-!- JackH [~Jack@host-80-43-142-236.as13285.net] has joined #bitcoin-wizards08:37
TaekI feel weird about the reddit bashing that happens here. Sure there's a lot of low-quality conversation, but I don't think it's all bad08:37
andytoshiTaek: it's because reddit is, on net, very demoralizing08:38
TaekI wonder if some of the problems relate to how relatively well everyone is educated about Bitcoin08:40
Taekwith other open source software, when the core devs make a decision, the average person has no idea what it means08:40
Taekif Linux changes the scheduling algorithm, the controversy never makes it to the public b/c the public doesn't understand enough08:40
andytoshihehe, the difference in bitcoin is definitely not that the public "understands"08:41

andytoshithere are a shitload of paid shills in this space. i've never seen anywhere else like it08:41
andytoshilike yesterday greg mentioned on another channel that there were people outright lying about libsecp and if we could go correct this it'd be nice. so i went to reddit and was immediately bombarded by all-caps lying about RBF.08:47
andytoshiand a lot of this is personally targeted08:48

bsm1175322(In a DAG) The work of a minimal enclosed subgraph defined by all blocks partial-ordered between block's youngest parent and oldest child, relative to his own work, is a measure of whether the miner is distributing his blocks in an appropriately timely manner, or withholding them, or trying to perform an analog of the selfish mining attack.09:06

kanzure think the argument that goes like "out of all the other ledger systems they could choose to setup shop on, bitcoin-land is relatively cheap (or very nearly zero cost to a central issuer?) and has ridiculously high utility compared to centralized transaction processing systems" is a pretty good argument as-is, i suppose you don't have to argue them into adoption like "public money should be on a public network" heh.17:10

bramctulip, That makes sense but might be a little too aggressive. It's reasonable to forward transactions which will be valid within the next block or two17:40
maakuThe transactions are transitive because I hold IOUs I trust and you hold IOUs you trust and if those don't intersect, we need a multi-hop (transitive) atomic transaction to trade one for the other17:41
bramcphantomcircuit, Most likely, but I don't know what that incentive might be17:41
bramcLike, seriously, who does opt-in rbf hurt?17:41
bsm1175322maaku: I don't trust anyone.  I don't have the ability (or time) to evaluate whether anyone can repay a debt, and in practice no one does evaluate this.  We can create entirely trust-free, debt-free systems.  Let's start there.17:41
@phantomcircuitkanzure, it really depends on exactly how things are setup and exactly how they're used; my point is really just that ultimately there is probably not going to be a market for shares of AT&T issued by the bank of zimbabwe trading against barbados dollars and thus there will need to be a common settlement currency, the obvious choice being bitcoin itself17:41
jtimoncurrent debt balance = amount you hold from other issuer17:42
@phantomcircuitbramc, there were some altcoin idiots who insisted they had "fixed" unconfirmed transactions, so i assume it's part of a pump & dump scam17:42

kanzurephantomcircuit: obvious to you and me, but a good argument needs to be made. i suppose the root of your argument is ultimately something about settlement finality and exponentially-increasingly irreversible transactions in bitcoin, which are not offered by other designs.17:43

kanzurephantomcircuit: i think your (good) argument boils down to "the issuer should run a sidechain or on mainnet/something because otherwise transaction finality is unavailable to their digital currency"....  but they don't care about that. to them, their transactions are sufficiently final.17:46

@phantomcircuitkanzure, by exiting to bitcoin the chain of responsibility ends18:50
ajjtimon: like, a utxo worth $100 loses 1% of its value after 1 year, but a utxo worth 1c loses 1% of its value after 10 minutes (so after 100 minutes, it's lost 100% of its value and can be dropped from the utxo set, spent by a miner with no signature, whatever)18:50

ajjtimon: balancing setting fees by some sort of market versus consensus would be challenging though19:04
amiller_one thing i don't have a clear idea how to implement is how to do dynamic fees19:04
ajamiller_: bip100-style miner vote :)19:04
amiller_aj, that doesn't address the challenge19:04
@phantomcircuitamiller_, well you see first you need a fully decentralized integrated marketplace...19:05
amiller_if the rate (btc per byte-month) is constant, then it's easy to do the calculation at the end, when the coin moves (or is swallowed whole)19:05
tulipbsm1175322: it's one solution to the UTXO problem.19:05
ajamiller_: i assume you'd want it to be fixed initially, so you put in $1 and know it's safe for x blocks19:05
-!- execute [~execute@unaffiliated/execute] has quit [Ping timeout: 260 seconds]19:06
amiller_in other words if a coin is moved at time T1, then you look at time T0 when the coin was created, and you look at the size S, then you simply multiple rate * S * (T1-T0) and that's the fee to deduct19:06
ajamiller_: however if you move it after x/2 blocks, the rate might have changed, so the remaining 50x might only buy you y < x/2 blocks longer19:06

amiller_as another way of steering clear of settling on the policy right now.... just suppose it's an option, if you're okay with an 'adjustable rate' storage fee, then you could have that as an option19:08
bsm1175322"Interest rate" is a calculation that is simple to implement.  If anyone cares I have an altcoin with an interest rate (that can be negative) accurate to one satoshi.19:08
ajamiller_: yeah, crazy complicated. let's argue about something simple like blocksize or rbf instead!19:08

amiller_bsm117532, interest rate seems like a different topic, unless i hallucinated into the scrollback (which happens)... this kind of proposal is about assigning utxo "rental fees" based on *storage* cost, not the 'money amount'19:09
bsm1175322amiller_: demurrage is a negative interest rate.19:09
bsm1175322What you propose can be implemented with demurrage.19:09
amiller_bsm117532, depends on your definition of demurrage.... according to wikipedia it comes from the "storage cost" of gold, like the amount you have to pay a vault operator to hold the money... since gold has uniform density, the more gold you store, the more it costs19:10
amiller_in bitcoin, only the space in the utxo set seems like it actually has a computational resource impact on the network19:10
ajbsm1175322: a blockchain with a dynamic interest rate would be amusing to sell to central bankers, surely19:11
-!- SwedFTP [~SwedFTP@unaffiliated/swedftp] has joined #bitcoin-wizards19:11
* bsm1175322 might be a theorist. Anyway, "storage cost" instead of negative interest is an interesting idea.19:11
ajamiller_: storage cost of gold is proportional to value though...19:11
amiller_so i personally like having the definition of demurrage be more general, and could include either negative interest rates or storage costs, but i think recently demurrage is only intended to refer to this proportional interest rate style fee19:12
ajamiller_: as you point out. i'll shut up now :)19:12
-!- jbenet [sid17552@gateway/web/irccloud.com/session] has joined #bitcoin-wizards19:12
amiller_so in the interest of not overloading that term i think we should be specific about "storage fees" and "(negative) interest rates".... also potentially "fixed rate" storage fees or "dynamic rate" storage fees19:13
bsm1175322Personally I dislike that monetary policy disproportionately benefits (and hurts) currency holders -- and thus, it's not equitable.19:13
amiller_i think all of those terms are unambiguous and probably everyone will immediately get roughly the right notion in their heads (maybe that's over optimistic lol)19:13
-!- bitkarma [sid124593@gateway/web/irccloud.com/session] has joined #bitcoin-wizards19:13
amiller_so, interest rates are straightforward to implement, fixed rate storage fees are straightforward to implement, but dynamic rate storage fees are an open problem19:14
amiller_if you can think of a utxo data structure that would make it easy to implement dynamic storage fees, i'd be impressed19:14
bsm1175322amiller_: In the interest of reducing the lost UTXO set, a Satoshi has far less value than a cent.  The storage cost of a Satoshi is far more than a cent.  One would need to come up with a dynamic storage cost model.19:14

-!- LeMiner [LeMiner@unaffiliated/leminer] has joined #bitcoin-wizards19:16
amiller_bsm117532, no, the storage cost is the same... the storage cost is based on the number of bytes in the UTXO... an address has 25 bytes or whatever, regardless of whether it's storing a satoshi or a btc19:16

bsm1175322smk, jcorgan. moa, CodeShark: wouldn't it be wonderful if news organizations had some kind of "expert" to contact, before spewing their diarrhea on the public and making them sort it out?  We all have limited bandwidth.21:02

CodeSharkbsm1175322: they try to, sometimes...but it's much harder to be educational and entertaining and informative than to just have two sides punch each other :p21:05
jcorganbsm1175322: my solution is to just ignore them, and lower my expectations of people who don't21:06
bsm1175322But I do respect people who have different experience than me.  I want to have as reasonable an evaluation of their field as they do of mine.  If we expect everyone to have a Ph.D. in a subject to evaluate trivial media vomit, were fucked.21:07
smkbsm1175322: signal to noise is a factor in all aspects of life21:07
jcorganlet other people evaluate whatever they want, however they want.21:08
CodeSharkthe good thing is that as we move towards more asynchronous on-demand forms of media it does give us tools to filter for ourselves21:08
jcorganpersonally, i try hard to form networks of associates that are knowledgeable in different areas, and who i form trust with21:08
bsm1175322jcorgan: That's a great route to distributed ignorance.21:09
smkignorance of the ignorant :)21:09
smksounds blissful21:09
jcorganmeh.  i really don't care about others' willful ignorance, only my own.21:10
CodeSharkI'd make a distinction between willful ignorance in the sense of bigotry from "I just lack the resources to fully grasp that so I'll defer to someone else's judgment"21:12
* bsm1175322 is having a serious decentralization of trust/knowledge internal algorithmic problem with this conversation.21:13

bsm1175322Deferring to someone else's judgment (e.g. the media) is centralization!!!  Can't we decentralize that somehow?21:14
CodeSharkit's probably a smart thing to corroborate21:14

CodeSharkit's an optimization problem - how do we simplify our mental model without sacrificing accuracy in the things that are most relevant to our decision-making?21:17
CodeSharkor sacrificing the least amount of accuracty21:17
CodeSharksorta like occam...but it isn't really so much about which explanation is correct...it's about which mental model will help you make the best choices :)21:18
jcorgani still say it's easy--find people you trust and are knowledgeable, then ask them21:18
bsm1175322jcorgan: Referring to earlier in the conversation, define "trust"...21:19
kanzurenah easier to just learn everything21:19
jcorganit's a local, not global, definition21:19
bsm1175322Knowledgable is easy.  Trust is unquantifiable.21:19

bsm1175322kanzure: I'm with you on that.  I know everything!  (and you know everything more!)21:20
kanzurewhat?21:20
jcorgansure.  a good foundation in math and you're prepared to learn a great many different fields21:20

bsm1175322Most people, when faced with something new, search for someone they can trust, rather than someone that is knowledgeable.  It's the wrong model.21:22
jcorganthe linear algebra used in digital signal processing and that used in quantum mechanics are pretty much identical.21:22

CodeSharkgrasping the notion that a physical state can be represented as a vector in an n-dimensional space (or even an infinite dimensional space) is probably not something you want to expect from someone taking their first physics lesson ;)21:29

jcorganyeah, but i learned linear algebra and DSP first, and when i went to learn quantum mechanics, a lot of it just fell into place because i already had the mathmaticl intuition.21:31
jcorganand gee, what do you know, all this new fangled deep learning stuff is at heart playing with the same matrix math21:32
