Thu Mar 17 00:01:45 UTC 2016 <mircea_popescu> out of every Nth preceding block, the nonce-th byte is put in a string ; the combine hashed.

Thu Mar 17 00:00:39 UTC 2016 <mircea_popescu> this is a twistable knob.

Wed Mar 16 23:58:05 UTC 2016 <mircea_popescu> ok. so currently, for every block being mined : a header is calculated ; to this a nonce is added, the combine hashed. the resultant hash has to be smaller than a number to qualify as a found block.

Wed Mar 16 23:55:25 UTC 2016 <mircea_popescu> healing the relay-miner divide, if in fact the thing on trilema does it, would be a great one.
Wed Mar 16 23:55:06 UTC 2016 <mircea_popescu> except by features i don't mean "features". obviously.
Wed Mar 16 23:54:56 UTC 2016 <mircea_popescu> the thing is, the more features the putative fork has, the better, i suppose.
Wed Mar 16 23:54:37 UTC 2016 <mircea_popescu> eh no matter of fault mod6
Wed Mar 16 23:15:45 UTC 2016 <mircea_popescu> nobody can be this inept. "armed forces" ? ffs.
Wed Mar 16 23:13:44 UTC 2016 <mircea_popescu> "directly to that bush" ? srsly ?
