asciilifeform: good morning. I may be interested in working on the 'slow sync' problem after finishing up with the block explorer. The first part of that problem is understanding exactly what constitutes a valid syncing system, afaik prb has a 'fast-sync'. The main issue I see is that if you can't sync via original-trb you can't have bitcoin as per any sane definition of bitcoin. |
| |
↖ |
| 18:03 |
whaack |
So in other words the way the problem has to be solved is by creating an environment in which original-trb can sync quickly, rather than changing original-trb |
| |
~ 1 hours 24 minutes ~ |

whaack |
asciilifeform: Is there a quick way to apply the patch you did and rebuild bitcoind? I went into the src of my bitcoin folder and made the change, tried running make ONLINE=1, but from the output it doesn't seem like it picked up the change or recompiled at all |

shinohai: My question boils down to .. how do you recompile an existing trb? |
| 19:41 |
shinohai |
I guess same as you'd recompile any existing program from sauces. If there is new vpatch tho I've always performed new press. |
| 19:43 |
shinohai |
Since you said you applied manually, I'm guessing you didn't make copy of `bitcoinrpc.cpp` to vdiff against to see if, in fact, applied, neh? |
| 19:48 |
whaack |
shinohai: Nah I did not make a copy, just went right in there and made the change |
| 19:50 |
whaack |
I think I figured out what to do, I went into /build/ and ran make clean before running make ONLINE=1 again |

I'd sooner encourage you to work on making the thing more parallel than setting up network of friendlies that still does poorly at the boundary between it and the rest of the adversarial network |
| 21:58 |
whaack |
trinque: if trb needs friendly nodes to be functional, isn't that definitionally not bitcoin? << Of course bitcoin needs friendly nodes to be functional. Relaying a valid block is a friendly act. It needs to be simultaenously immune to adversarial nodes |

shinohai: Am I not using trb if I use the code on the foundation's website and connect on a subgraph of the network to a node that is being generous? |

shinohai |
whaack: merely reiterating point that if I hafta bootstrap only from only select nodes, then why bother ? |
| 22:06 |

trinque wonders what whaack thinks the bitcoin protocol does, if not establish consensus among participants *without* requiring "also pls be nice" |
| 22:08 |
shinohai |
Same as if I am torrenting pr0n, will certain seeder give me tranny clips instead of big booty Brazilian babes I want. |
| 22:12 |
whaack |
My point is that the network can be modelled like this: trb <--> trb-filter <--> prb-infested-network. And as I understand everyone has this 'trb-filter' to some degree, at the very least your isp should be filtering out nodes that try to spoof their ip address |
| |
↖ |
| 22:17 |
trinque |
100% agree that peerings with as many cryptographically-identifiable friendlies as possible is a good thing. plenty of old threads on lifting trb onto a hypothetically wotnet |

whaack |
trinque: The protocol, i.e. trb, establishes what is the longest valid chain. But how to obtain the various candidate items to inspect can be treated as a separate problem |
| |
~ 16 minutes ~ |
| 22:35 |
whaack |
Imagine a design where trb had no networking code at all. It just looked at local folders and determined which was the longest valid chain, and left it up to the operator to determine how to populate those local folders. I think this is how trb should be treated. |

this is pretty much the dumbest optimization possible. but gotta point out that the thing people do to get trb nodes standing up fast, is sadly very similar, they copy disks.. |
| 23:21 |
asciilifeform |
imho optional 'cement' input (i.e. of known-good list of block hashes) would be the sane thing for trb sync. |
| 23:21 |

but i dun stand up new nodes very often, so never felt this was a priority. |
