Do you have a printed out copy of the judicial smackdown opinion against the defense for trying to pull the last-minute-witness TV plot device? If your lawyer friends and passers-by find the diary amusing, that document should be icing on the cake.

Anyone ever feel sorry for the original satoshi person/team? The proof of concept actually seems like something great to have in a portfolio when applying to certain kinds of jobs/positions/higher ed, but it never got to get used as such (since using it before btc was popular would mean others would know who the real people are), and basically no legitimate institution would even think of accepting the liability/notoriety of employing the creator of what has turned into a giant criminal cult market. Months or even years of research, planning, and inspiration all down the drain

If those coins ever move before the heat death of the universe, it'll be because someone won the gigantic lottery of randomly making the same key pair

Oh man, just think of the hilarity that could ensue if someone did end up getting a key collision for one of the big wallets and just dumped the entire value into whatever the largest exchange there is now in an idiotic effort to cash out. You know that thing would get "hacked" a few seconds later, then watch as the tumbler services that the exchange owners use also get "hacked" and the coins just get stolen and stolen all over again in a gigantic chain reaction

OSI bean dip posted:$-50 and $50 are the same as well Nah, at least that one I'll give them - I tried throwing on a couple letters and symbols and they were stripped from the return (but leaving the huge decimal number before and after the junk text), so they're probably at least doing a regex match to remove everything except [0-9.] or whatever the right notation is

Ursine Asylum posted:what happens if you use non-us formatting with a comma Commas are also stripped and therefore nonexistant, and an extra decimal thrown in for good measure turns a valid number into an invalid one. That pretty much confirms regex as their only $POST['whatever'] cleanup routine since it allows for an insane number of decimal places (probably up to the entire post length that they have apache set to accept which I think defaults to something like 4mb - not gigantic when dealing with images, but that's a book's worth of plaintext). Surprisingly it does require a bitcoin address of the proper length and that passes whatever checksum, screwing with the address leads to it being invalid. Seriously, they used somebody else's prewritten function for the bitcoin address but can't even handle financial inputs properly? e: Finishing a programmer thought: The box shows exactly what you typed even if it would be past the point of float inaccuracy, so I'm thinking they store the actual value as (float)$regexCleanedAmount but directly show $regexCleanedAmount in the textbox. Kind of boring, but it means that the amount they show you on the page is not exactly the same as the amount they deal with money-wise. Granted it's a stupidly small fraction of a btc difference, but the point is that a purely financial service is showing inaccurate data out of pure, stupid incompetence Sentient Data fucked around with this message at 01:29 on Feb 10, 2015 |

TVarmy posted:wouldn't something like storing a decimal fraction of the currency (like pennies or mills) as an integer be vastly preferable, if not ideal? Absotively, store it in an appropriately signed/unsigned int/bigint using the smallest fraction of currency that you work with as its base and remember to name the variable after the unit to avoid idiotic screwups by other coders or yourself in the future (like $itemDetails['pricePennies'])

Stupid movie didn't cover the TRUE history displayed in Cryptonomicon! And god drat did that book suck. I was expecting fanfictiony stupid Mary Sue stuff with glimmers of interesting moments after reading Snow Crash, but that stupid book was about 8 times as long as it should have been and goes on and on about such petty bullshit. But it's got  THE VAULT and its magical digital currency which even in the book was used illegally, so of course it's probably one of the butter bibles

Since this is now a book club, I'll chime in and say that you should treat Snow Crash as a B movie - laugh at its wild and purposeful exaggerations and just be taken on the ride, and I agree that the most of the WW2-era section of cryptonomicon was good, I just couldn't bring myself to care at all about the present day video telegraphs company and stockholder lawsuit blabbering sections. Especially the fact that the ending was just finding a horde of gold, killing a bunch of random characters who happened to find it at exactly the same time, and the book ends abruptly when they just napalm the cache of gold to let it run out of the hidden area as a river.  It could also do without the paragraphs' worth of descriptions on the character's need to wank it (yes, really), so like I said, it's about 8x too long - a trimmed down novella wouldn't be too bad

The smart money would be in running a tumbler legitimately but baking in a 0.1% chance for a non-micro transaction to go to the "wrong" address and silently update the user's settings. If they bitch online, they'll just be berated by other users who don't have any issues
