So yesterday I got drunk and started talking about bitcoin. A lot of people were sceptic but and the end of the evening they were convinced. In my drunkiness I promised the bartender I would come by later and install him all the tools for accepting bitcoins. I am located in Brussels, ...

I'm trying to popularize a very simple, fair odds, 100% break even P2P game. I don't really see the point betting at SD, Bitbattle or other house-edge games if we can have P2P backed gambling. If we can have a P2P currency, why not P2P fair gambling? Here's how the game works. This is...
So SatoshiDice has the chance of winning along with the payout multiplier if you win. I am playing a 36% chance to win 2.67x payout and haven't won 10 times in a row. According to my math, this has almost a 99% chance of not happening. Today this happened and a 9 lose streak happened ...
the economics are that as more people mine, the mining gets harder, which causes less people to mine. it creates a stable rate of bitcoin generation, which keeps bitcoins at a certain exchange rate. look at it this way, if i made 10 bitcoins, and 10 only, each one would be incredibly ...

Information on the benefits of bitcoin travels fast and freely. Real vulnerability of the underlying protocol are yet to be seen and even growth issues don't yet pose any significant road blocks to the general upward trend. Not many people even give any fuck to news of services like e...
The main way a majority of people look to get something out of their Bitcoin "investment" is by future investors. This is many people's motivation for getting new Bitcoin adopters. You see people on here all the time saying that you should buy Bitcoin because one day each Bitcoin coul...
Bitcoin exchanges are such good targets that using Rails is just flatly unacceptable. There are what, 3-4 server side Rails exploits per year now? If you run the front of estore or something, that's okay, because your site is not enough of a target that it will be exploited. However, ...
Time zones in Rails can be a little confusing because they add support by modifying existing Ruby core/stdlib classes. Ruby has no time zone support but Rails actually does a good job. The key is to always use Time.zone rather than Time and to be aware of the difference between things...
No, what you need is a descriptive language that gives designers what they want and then hook everything up by calling some stored procedures in a database. CRUD problem solved. :-) Or, maybe what you really need is a tight server code that then is hooked up by a dynamic front-end tha...
An attacker can execute any ruby code he wants including system("unix command"). This effects any rails version for the last 6 years. I've written POCs for Rails 3.x and Rails 2.x on Ruby 1.9.3, Ruby 1.9.2 and Ruby 1.8.7 and there is no reason to believe this wouldn't work on any Ruby...
I bought lunch for a friend and she agreed to repay in Bitcoins. She has a PhD in Genetic Engineering so she is smart and busy. She doesn't have time for tedious geeky stuff. She wrote: I am working on getting the $100 in bitcoins. But it would cost $121.45. I was going to use it as a...

"Are you saying that these 'miners' essentially create bitcoins out of thin air (which they then award to themselves)? Or are they simply paid a fee by the transaction initiator?" -- OK, so let me step back a bit and clarify. Bitcoin is a protocol which requires people to "mine" (veri...
It's not that simple. The only fair way to calculate a dollar figure is to convert each transaction at the time it occurs. (Which would require some programming. Maybe BlockChain would like to implement this?) For example, there might've been 1,000 BTC donated when the price was $2. T...
I have used this app for some time to keep track of the dollar. Now that they implemented BTC support I went Pro to show my support. Pretty good app. Edit:
Consider a view of current events which people on the internet generally support, things like "stop internet censorship", "free julian assange", "TSA are thugs", or whatever is currently popular. Then picture a person performing an elaborate protest which attracts media attention. But...

By saying a currency can be viable without an increase in the money supply over time you are rejecting more than 100 years of economics. Good job. I absolutely reject economic theories that are wrong. Sadly, much of mainstream economics is wrong. It is these same people who didn't see...
Resque is pretty heavily used, but development seems to be stalled out at this point. In production, especially on JRuby, sidekiq is much more efficient than running a bunch of resque processes. Also, you don't need to setup a monit/god monitor for each one, you just need to run/monit...
