I have to confess I was short-term to medium-term bearish around the $90-95 area in July, and I sold a decent chunk of my coins hoping to catch "the final downturn" and buy some more BTC.  That is starting to feel like a really really bad decision.  (Bought back a few some days ago because the charts were looking good, but on the whole still a really bad move).

It is neither about how to be a human nor how someone was or was not raised. It's about trading. Either you win or you lose. Is losing humane and winning sociopathic? I don't think so.
Or, you look at your watch and see your time on Space Invaders is up.

So, Gox has Gox'd me out again.

Can't view the site, seeing price tumbling on bitcoinity. Any news?

I'm pretty happy, as hopefully this means that somebody will actually give me the opportunity to earn some bloody BTC for once.

Can someone post some working Mtgox price tickers?

Those charts are lagging behind a bit, Gox was at 170 when it still showed 180.

Also, I doubt they are using bitcoin-qt... I'm not sure where kazu got that from.

bitcoind != bitcoin-qt, but whatever.... also, just because they use bitcoind to handle the networking and blockchain doesn't mean that bitcoind has the only copy of the data and the only codepaths that can work with said data.

Actually they are the exact same thing. QT just contains what is effectively a GUI wrapper.

Since I am a programmer by trade, the difference seems pretty large to me, but I fully understand that under the hood they have the same engine.  But bitcoin-qt has a lot more code, and has a much larger attack surface.
What are you going to attack on Bitcoin-QT that you can't attack on Bitcoind? The connection to the Bitcoin network is by far the most vulnerable place in both, and they happen to run essentially the same code.

The GUI code....  Yes, networking absolutely demands the tightest security and cleanest code, but that's exactly why most vulnerabilities are found in less important code.  It does not have as much attention paid to it.  Once you can execute arbitrary code, you can do anything you want with the network code or wallet code.  Hopefully the user doesn't unlock their wallet Wink.
