< luke-jr>
not building bitcoin-qt seems a bit extreme though; might make sense to refactor configure to just change the bip70 option
< fanquake>
wumpus are we meant to be able to build bitcoin-qt without protobuf after #14451?

Hello, can anyone comment on the following claim. "If there is a clock drifts more than 2 hours and and there are 2 chains similar PoW, then we can have a fork where both chains think they are longest in their own view. So, bitcoin network operates on some synchronous assumptions."
< wumpus>
if you're looking for a specific block, you could check block explorers if they have it, or ask here or in #bitcoin
< sanket1729>
Hello, I have one small quick question. Does bitcoin core ever prune orphan blocks? I mean do all full nodes have a very old orphan block, say from 2014?

Chris_Stewart_5 See the channel history, we've forked rapidcheck to bitcoin-core, could be a chance to use the new make install method etc. You should have gotten invite to /bitcoin and /bitcoin-core as well.
< midnightmagic>
still burns me atmel dropped avr for arm. wumpus: well if it does anything interesting with the bitcoin node, I know I at least would love to hear about it.
< wumpus>
yes, bitcoin runs ok, syncing doesn't go super fast but it was a bit faster than most ARM boards from a few years ago I've tried on
< wumpus>
midnightmagic: well... currently only run OpenBSD in VM; and yes, bitcoin builds fine on OpenBSD, there's special instructions for that, which fanquake updated for 6.4 and I'l like to test out but couldn't yet
< jarthur>
jnewbery wumpus any known issues with the new wallet and walletdir behaviors in 0.17? Someone in #bitcoin is saying the backwards compatibility with prior behavior mentioned in release notes isn't working for them.

< andytoshi>
meshcollider: people today show up with 2012 wallets on #bitcoin, and it's a pretty impressive show of backward-compatibility that i can always say "just import it into the latest core"
< midnightmagic>
wumpus: I didn't know you were into OpenBSD. Bitcoin builds work okay on it still? There was a guy who was persistently building on OpenBSD for quite some time.

luke-jr: a bitcoin core-tor bundle has been talked about since 2012 at least
< luke-jr>
says the guy who wrote bitcoin-qt..
< wumpus>
yess I'm... not sure how I got involved in this at all tbh, I made bitcoin-qt because I thought it would help get actual GUI people invovled, make it easier for them
< wumpus>
as you can't really make an assumption about the precision, yes if you write software for bitcoin specifically you can hardcode 10^-8, but anythign that needs to interface between different systems and APIs and databases needs to convert between them on their own terms
< gmaxwell>
phantomcircuit: the old json library bitcoin used to use randomly inserted conversions to float in a minor upgrade!
< gmaxwell>
phantomcircuit: depends on what you mean by float, common bitcoin values don't fit precisely in 32-bit floats, they do in 64-bit doubles.
< wumpus>
gmaxwell: yes, it's trivial change to ValueFromAmount if you really want to, though I'd suggest looking at a better suited JSONRPC library, by now for most languages there's something for bitcoin specifically
< gmaxwell>
in Bitcoin core they're just 64 bit integers.
< sipa>
karelb: also, inside bitcoin core there no conversion of amounts to floats ever (except feerates), even to convert to JSON

< karelb>
thinking out loud- yesterday we talked with colleague how we hate that JSON RPC returns BTC values as floats. (at various points.) Do you think it would be a good idea to be able to somehow switch this with some option? either option for whole bitcoind, or just another parameter for bitcoin-cli
