It's ironic that bitcoin FUDers even post in this forum. The fact that you are thinking about bitcoin enough to even go out of your way to post in a bitcoin thread means that even the FUDers are still obsessed with bitcoin enough that they want back in. The fact that you're spending time here means deep down you really DO still believe in bitcoin. You don't find too many atheists in church every Sunday morning.
I love how everyone on this subforum talks in such definitive absolutes, like they are so sure that they know exactly what is going on without ANY facts or analysis to support their conclusions or theories:
The most important thing to take away from the Speculation subforum, in my opinion, is not the predictions of the people posting on it. It's the general sentiment of the people who are posting. Given that the sentiment overall seems to be extremely low / bearish, I'd say that this is a good indication that we are near a price floor. Admittedly, there are innumerable variables that go into determining the action of the markets, but this is my two satoshis when it comes to price speculation.

This is what, the fourth thread about Gox liquidation FUD in as many days started by our newest troll? Welcome to my ignore list, OP.

OP is a noob, which is obvious from the three separate threads he started in the Speculation subforum about the same fucking topic. Feel free to stop posting until the 200,000 coins are dumped and you return to triumphantly declare "I told you so."
I am far too new to Bitcoin to have a fully formed opinion on this matter. However, it seems like Mt. Gox's bankruptcy liquidator, and the way he decides to liquidate to creditors, could materially impact Bitcoin's price in the short term. I'd love to get some feedback from you guys/gals.
And today you're an expert who can predict the future? Impressive!
Hardcore / more technical users who want to stay up-to-date faster (because the PPA is not updated automatically) or simply wish to be more paranoid about security should compile locally from source.

I'm with TERA on this one. The answer, quite simply, is "no."
Longer version: claiming that of the multitude of factors that affect the exchange rate, only the hash rate of the network matters: sheer ignorance.

FWIW, Netbeans worked right out of the box. I had to perform no extra configuration for its code analysis tool to work, whereas Eclipse CDT remains horribly broken despite hours of tinkering with the C++ include paths. My issue with simple text editors is that they do not offer enough functionality for my purposes. I want code analysis tools that help me more easily understand how the code is structured.

Alternatively, if anyone on here does Bitcoin Core development in Ubuntu, I'm interested to know what IDE / tools you use.

I could do that, but I would much rather have all the tools that Eclipse offers at my disposal...

Does anyone have a working Bitcoin Core project set up in Eclipse's C++ IDE on Ubuntu? I'm running Keplar on Ubuntu 13.10 and Eclipse isn't resolving the QT or berkeleydb related classes.

Re: IRS guidance on Bitcoin - Will it affect litecoin

IRS guidance applies to all digital currencies. You should try actually reading it before spreading FUD to support your alt-coins. http://www.irs.gov/pub/irs-drop/n-14-21.pdf
I think that someone is trying to brute-force passwords. Bad login attempts were handled very badly/slowly. I fixed the performance issues there, though the brute-forcing is presumably still going on. I don't have time look into it. A single IP can attempt logging in no more often than once per 45 seconds, though, so it shouldn't be too easy to brute-force passwords.
You don't have time to look into it? Seriously? Why don't you spend some of that 6000 BTC to hire someone who has time to look into it. Seriously.
Sentiment on these forums certainly has the feeling of "capitulation" these days. If you know what this means... buying opportunity.

Completely agree Re: Mythical Man Month.
As an API developer, I would argue that the core devs goal should be to implement the fewest changes possible while still supporting and strengthening the consensus mechanisms. This is in order to reduce the possibility of introducing flaws into the protocol. I'd say that we do need a team devoted to scalability issues.

Doge will win from sheer community awesomeness resulting in maximum virality. Will the meme get old eventually? Perhaps. Perhaps not.
