XRP Ninja

Someone just published a paper which includes among other things a valuation model, which by very conservative assumptions would valuate XRP at $2.25 in 2-3 years. Just published " #XRP - taking the fast lane?". Everyone talking Bitcoin. But smart money started to flow into $XRP . https://t.co/OcTjUYhGzf — Tplus0 (@TplusZero) June 12, 2017

TL;DR: It's possible to find out others' secret keys but it's so improbable that it's almost impossible.  Make sure you have a good entropy source when generating your address/secret key. Use multi-sign  https://ripple.com/build/how-to-multi-sign/ See the discussion here: https://www.xrpchat.com/topic/6054-questions-about-secret-keysripple-wallet-addresses/

https://xrpcharts.ripple.com/#/validators/nHBTqw7vwjqrSMruoQNYmSXcrBmQHDquG7jgvrsQpurGaVELqdNx I will ping ripple again if it is still like this on Monday.

So I haven't done Gentoo work for a long time and I am no longer a Gentoo dev. I haven't updated this blog for a long time. I plan to start posting again. I have been playing with ripple/xrp for almost 3 years. I had a negative ROI for most part of the last 3 years. Things changed about 2 months ago.  So I decided to contribute back somehow. I started with setting up a rippled server. I am running it on GCE . It's running as a validator. It has a domain name rippled.xrp.ninja. I just got the domain verified by ripple.com . So you will see it on  https://xrpcharts.ripple.com/#/validators very soon. I will post another blog about how I got it up running. Stay tuned.

There's been some problem renewing this domain. We might as well abandon this domain name altogether and switch to gentoo-zh.org. Actually I have already registered the later one. Probably will set it up this weekend. Meanwhile you can access the site using zhangle.is-a-geek.org. Everything works fine, except sub domains, like {planet,irc...}.gentoo-cn.org. Sorry for the convenience caused, if any.

So gentoo-china and gentoo-taiwan overlay will merge. The new overlay will be called gentoo-zh. I have already added gentoo-zh overlay to repositories.xml based on which layman-global.txt is generated. Thanks to microcai for merging the repository of these two projects. EDIT: sorry there is an error about the source type. already fixed.

So, as some of you may know, I have just settled down in San Jose, CA. My new job is Site Reliability Engineer in Google Mountain View office. I would like make some new friends here. If you live nearby, let me know, ;)

getdents64 was added to N32 ABI during 2.6.35 merge window. But it has a problem which is later fixed by a patch merged in 2.6.36 window. IIRC, readdir in glibc works with both getdents and getdents64, and it prefers getdents64 if it is available. So if your glibc is compiled against linux-header-2.6.35 and upwards, readdir will use getdents64, but on Linux 2.6.35 it actually calls getdents. So readdir will be confused. As a consequence, you will have problems accessing files. The system will be effectively unusable. So if you have encountered this problem, pray that you have another system which could boot the machine. Compile a kernel 2.6.36 or upwards and use it to boot the system. Then you should be able to get your system back.

Almost forget to mention, now with this workaround http://bit.ly/d5rBqp , N32 firefox-3.6.8 is working again. I am still trying to fix the binutils bug. http://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=11956 I am feeling that I am not far from a break through. BTW, Shenzhen Linux User Group will celebrate Software Freedom Day 2010 on this Saturday. If you happen to be in town by then, do drop by, ;) http://bit.ly/sz_sfd_2010 If you can come, and don't understand Chinese, I am always ready for help. ;)

It is under experimental/mips/stages/loongson/. Like: http://mirrors.xmu.edu.cn/gentoo/experimental/mips/stages/loongson/ I should have done it long ago, just don't familiar with catalyst and catalyst lacks documentation. Thanks to leio and robbat2 for making it happen. http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=330021 I have already included kernel modules in the stage3. You can find the corresponding kernel here: http://www.gentoo-cn.org/~zhangle/ If you want to build your own kernel, use the source here: http://dev.lemote.com/code/linux-loongson-community/wiki/WikiStart You also need loongson overlay. Just use layman to add it. Of course you need to emerge layman first. http://www.gentoo-cn.org/gitweb/?p=loongson.git;a=summary If you find portage ask you to downgrade packages, you can try this trick ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="x86 ~x86 ~mips" However you need to understand that there is no guarantee that software installed in this way would work. But at least some of them will work.
