00:00:24 It needs to be revitalized by drug money 00:03:18 i'd imagine moore's law figures in that somehow. 00:04:51 *into 00:07:21 In theory, there's some sort of equilibrium (the fewer miners there are the more attractive it is to mining), and of course a competition for mining faster and more cheaply (this explains the move to ASICs that happened this year.) 00:08:03 the fewer miners part doesn't apply if there's no _marginal_ profit at all. 00:08:07 i'd think. 00:09:50 also that profitability needs to sustain all bitcoin transactions happening everywhere 00:09:53 there are supposed to be transaction fees to compensate for the lack of new coins being minted 00:09:58 * int-e shrugs 00:10:02 ah 00:10:10 such freedom 00:10:12 so liberty 00:18:47 mining stops eventually, anyway? 00:19:15 I think it continues forever? 00:19:31 oh. I guess I don't understand how bitcoin works then 00:20:31 I think like. mining gets you new coins + transaction fees 00:20:39 and the new coins slowly trail off? 00:21:10 so it never actually reaches the total number of bitcoins, just approaches it slower and slower? 00:21:17 no, it eventually reaches it 00:21:56 I think like it gives 50 per block, then 25, then 12.5.... plus transaction fees? 00:22:07 then surely mining eventually gets you 0 coins? what would be the point to mining then? 00:22:24 I think the transaction fees? 00:22:25 "mining" is the process of signing blocks of transactions. that needs to be done to keep the system going. the freshly minted coins are an incentive for doing so, but as I mentioned, transaction fees are possible (with transactions having fewer incoming coins than outgoing coins; the remainder can be claimed by whoever does the proof of work for the transaction's block) 00:22:49 okay, right. 00:23:24 the quantities are finite precision so eventually it does reach 0 00:25:28 (oddly I trust bitcoins about as far as I can throw them :) ) 00:30:58 http://bitcoin.sipa.be/ ... the growth in (totally wasted!) computing power is crazy. 00:34:16 clearly the future belongs to spamcoin, a cryptographically secure currency based on solving captchas. 00:36:21 haha 00:36:30 -!- nooodl has quit (Quit: Ik ga weg). 00:39:41 int-e, has anyone tried working out accusatory stats like power costs and carbon footprint yet 00:42:46 -!- Sorella has quit (Remote host closed the connection). 00:43:16 Hmm.

04:49:04 quintopia: Yes, it isn't best for everything, but there is a lot of things it would work for but that they don't do it that way. 04:49:26 zzo38: i mean, ls does all its own coloring and sorting and stuff. 04:49:35 is there a turing complete language with only 2 instructions? 04:49:40 zzo38: it doesn't really make sense for imagemagick, for instance. imagemagick is a lot simpler the way it is 04:49:52 L8D: yes 04:49:55 what? 04:50:17 bitchanger, perhaps? just go to the tarpits section of the wiki and poke around. 04:50:52 L8D: sk combinators? 04:50:56 quintopia: Yes, for ImageMagick, it still does need the command to tell it the file type and all that stuff, and you might have more than one file; yet it still helps that you can tell it to use stdin/stdout if you don't give a filename (you still need the type) and that can be useful too 04:51:14 Bike: what is that supposed to mean? 04:51:23 L8D: sk combinator calculus 04:51:36 But I think for dvilj4 it would make more sense to use pipe/filter (dvilj4 is a program to convert DVI to PCL) 04:52:29 yeah no 04:52:52 sk combinators need i combinators to be turing complete 04:53:01 and bitchanger is 4 instructions 04:53:05 L8D: http://esolangs.org/wiki/Impera 04:53:06 L8D: No, it doesn't, i can be made from sk 04:53:07 L8D: um i = skk 04:53:18 zzo38: you can?

05:24:10 what do you mean by capable 05:25:17 i thought it was obvious. why do you ask that? 05:25:52 because (one) if it's TC it can emulate a system with unbounded loops (two) we were just talking about combinators which you surely know about and don't have loops or conditionals 05:26:44 well again, i'm thinking only about imperative langs here 05:27:23 so i guess 05:27:35 i mean that if you want to do unbounded loops 05:27:40 you have to roll your own 05:27:52 because the lang itself supports no such constructs in its syntax 05:28:02 (or unbounded nested conditionals) 05:28:51 ok, scheme doesn't have loops, how about that. 05:29:40 i always thought of scheme as mostly functional 05:30:00 it has begin. 05:30:28 -!- oerjan has set topic: IT HAS BEGIN | Although maybe if something else strange is done, it might not?
