<j​ukeman1968:matrix.org> Hello not sure if this is the right space to ask. I am running monero node and I keep getting the exception boost::bad_weak_ptr. DEF_MONERO_VERSION "0.18.1.0" Thanks in advance for help!

0.18.1.0 is very old. Try the latest version (0.18.4.0)

<s​yntheticbird:monero.social> fwiw 18.1.0 is also the version advertised when building from master

<j​ukeman1968:matrix.org> Thats the reason I was using it. No with 18.4.0 the exception is gone

<j​ukeman1968:matrix.org> Thats the reason I was using it. Now with 18.4.0 the exception is gone

I created an issue slandering EasyMonerod for being ai slop money grab and it was deleted :( kerlannXmr/EasyMonerod #13#event-17703049828

<s​yntheticbird:monero.social> oof

<r​brunner7:monero.social> Hmm. How do you separate people with not quite enough know-how (yet) for the job they try from "AI slop"? Maybe I am not trained enough yet to recognize code slop. What did you strike you in particular, plowsof?

The overall smell given off by just glancing at the readme /.website page vs the actual quality of the shell script

Instillation of irrelevant things github.com/kerlannXmr/EasyMonerod/b…1400ed2e89/easynode_linux%20v3#L213 , perhaps ai hallucinated he would want to build from.source

<r​brunner7:monero.social> Oh, yeah, cool, installing nmap to run a Monero node. To hack back against spy nodes, I suppose :)

Seemingly lost his train of thought and duplicated configs github.com/kerlannXmr/EasyMonerod/b…1400ed2e89/easynode_linux%20v3#L542 and github.com/kerlannXmr/EasyMonerod/b…1400ed2e89/easynode_linux%20v3#L699

Its like several LLM sessions who jave no knowledge of what proceeded the initial.prompt .. but then with an optional pruned flag

Actually making this you surely would.feel.some.dejavu

But for sure make sure the sits looks legit and put up fundraisers easynode.kerlann.org

<u​ser2570:unredacted.org> Devs who use ai like this, have an artificial intelligence in their skull.

<u​ser2570:unredacted.org> Prove me wromg.

Ai wants us to host unrestricted rpc nodes and force password auth for ssh login instead of keys..ai is not our friend clearly

<o​frnxmr:xmr.mx> What is this wizardry? Deleting issues? I thoight only GH staff could do that

<o​frnxmr:xmr.mx> I gave the code a quick once-over and it has some pretty bad stuff in it

<o​frnxmr:xmr.mx> Like, it wipes your ssh config and enables password auth

<o​frnxmr:xmr.mx> it exposes your unrestricted rpc

<o​frnxmr:xmr.mx> It replaces your resolve.conf

<o​frnxmr:xmr.mx> This should definitely not be installed outside of a test vm

<o​frnxmr:xmr.mx> i didnt check hard, but it looks like it downloads ban list, but never uses it

<o​frnxmr:xmr.mx> Installs python for no reason at all

<o​frnxmr:xmr.mx> Wipes your tor config

Downloads ban list and loops through each line and tells `monerod ban` :D

<o​frnxmr:xmr.mx> github.com/kerlannXmr/EasyMonerod/b…1400ed2e89/easynode_linux%20v3#L475

How is llm supposed to know how to ise the banlist file, ill forgive it github.com/kerlannXmr/EasyMonerod/b…1400ed2e89/easynode_linux%20v3#L778

<o​frnxmr:xmr.mx> github.com/kerlannXmr/EasyMonerod/b…1400ed2e89/easynode_linux%20v3#L894

<o​frnxmr:xmr.mx> github.com/kerlannXmr/EasyMonerod/b…400ed2e89/easynode_linux%20v3#L1050

<o​frnxmr:xmr.mx> Need to create the same function repeatedly /s

Its what "code will be open sourced soon when its ready" looks like

<o​frnxmr:xmr.mx> github.com/kerlannXmr/EasyMonerod/b…7b1400ed2e89/easynode_linux%20v3#L7

<o​frnxmr:xmr.mx> github.com/kerlannXmr/EasyMonerod/b…b1400ed2e89/easynode_linux%20v3#L55

<o​frnxmr:xmr.mx> Defines colors

<o​frnxmr:xmr.mx> github.com/kerlannXmr/EasyMonerod/b…400ed2e89/easynode_linux%20v3#L1231

<o​frnxmr:xmr.mx> then echoes the first line instead of using the functions like done in the following lines

<o​frnxmr:xmr.mx> Also the claim about working on it for 6 months is a bit shameless. Since release, its barely had any changes to it aside from (probably literally) hundreds of readme updates

<o​frnxmr:xmr.mx> github.com/kerlannXmr/EasyMonerod/commits/main ...

<o​frnxmr:xmr.mx> My main beef with this, is that it is being advertised as safe to use, while it does fuckery like deleting your system configs

<j​ukeman1968:matrix.org> I checked the install script. Python is installed to use fail2ban which is a good securiry practice.

<j​ukeman1968:matrix.org> But the configuration in general is pretty bad. Open port 22 (no source restrictions), open port 80 (for what?) Seems like a good intention to faciliate the use of monerod but I would definitely not configure it this way.

<j​ukeman1968:matrix.org> Yes it kills your DNS and firewall config (/etc/resolv.conf file and ufw) 🤨

<m​rcyjanek0:matrix.org> AMA - I've said it will take a week to finish and it took around 7 months (work is still in progress)

<m​rcyjanek0:matrix.org> repo.getmonero.org/monero-project/c…als/-/merge_requests/437#note_29998

<s​yntheticbird:monero.social> im a redditor

<s​yntheticbird:monero.social> screenshots when?

<s​yntheticbird:monero.social> oh its a library nvm

<s​yntheticbird:monero.social> well im a redditor so im dumb that kinda checks out

<s​yntheticbird:monero.social> oh wait no im lost

<s​yntheticbird:monero.social> maybe i should read more attentively

<m​rcyjanek0:matrix.org> ;p yeah it's both - wallet and library - wallet failed to gain traction, and uh.. got less users than platforms it supported after many months..

<m​rcyjanek0:matrix.org> so my focus kind of shifted to focus on the library

<o​frnxmr:xmr.mx> Fail2ban is used where? And if python is a dependency, it would be installed autonatically

<o​frnxmr:xmr.mx> It kills your ssh and torrc, and enables ssh password auth, smh

<j​ukeman1968:matrix.org> Correct.

<j​ukeman1968:matrix.org> Fail2ban: Line 240 of easynode_linux. It´s automatically started when installed. Correct, Python would be installed since it´s a dependency.

<r​4v3r23:monero.social> called it. the lib is whats important, not the wallet

<m​rcyjanek0:matrix.org> Yep, wallet got peak around 50 users and the lib has +500’000 users. It would be unwise to keep my focus on the product that has less demand - and since your project is targeted towards the same group and has much bigger community.

It would be unwise to keep my focus on the product that has less demand - and since your project is targeted towards the same group and has much bigger community I don’t think that anyone will miss xmruw (though folks at SailfishOS can use it as the only native Monero wallet :p)

<3​21bob321:monero.social> So wallet development is dead ?

<s​yntheticbird:monero.social> always has been

<s​yntheticbird:monero.social> monero-wallet crate is our lord and savior
