selsta do you want me to squash my PR (monero-project/monero #8211) and have mj-xmr approve that the squashed version is the same?

Or you could pull tye branch, then i'll squash

Hmm, if we want to revert a single thing in the future it might be better to not squash it.

hi all

i'd like to create a java miner, but how can i use the randomX algorithm if there isn't a java version of it, should i create another version of it in java? also there is blake2 but there isn't a version for java

i am not an advanced developer and i don't know much about mining but i want to give it a try and try ti create an xmr miner using java

don't bother.

if you guys have anything to say please don't hesitate

java will never perform well enough to be a worthwhile miner

oh ok

i would like to try anyways

<icscloud[m]> "if you guys have anything to say..." <- do you know how to make android apps?

i don't

i have to learn kotlin for that

It's pretty easy to learn coming from Java

<icscloud[m]> "i would like to try anyways..." <- for educational purposes I suppose then

btw is there any android app that can show xmr/usd rate next to time?

from the blockchain api there is something on how to create one

<ZombieMaster[m]> "for educational purposes I..." <- yes most for that, also i was curious about how much wold be the hashrate of an android, but based on the fact the java does not directly "talk" to the hardware and is not really fast i don't know it would be the real one even if i succeed, but maybe a hundred hash for second, but there are powerful phones so maybe more but i don't think a phone will ever br able to reach 1kh alone,

my computer reaches just 600hs and it is not the best anyways, but whatever the case, to make an android miner useful it would be needed to have more than 1k phones mining in a pool and it wouldn't make much of a revenue anyways

despite my lack of knowledge i just want to experiment and learn, yesterday i didn't even know how bitcoin mining was achieved and the "math problem" they had to do that in the is just guessing until you got what you want, and it is more easy to understand than the randomX algorithm that is a whole different process

so i wanted to implement randomX to java in some way or if that's not possible to recreate it in java, but first i jave to understand how it works and i find it difficult for now. however i started reading some code from the github repository but being a java only guy i find it a bit hard to completely understand. but it is just the right chance to learn a new programming language, even if i saw that there is also some assambly code

there from the repository at the end

so it is just hard it self to understand how randomX works i think it would be harder to try to implement it after that and to make it work properly, but i want to give it a try anyways

* in the end is just

icscloud: perhaps looking at RandomX written in another language might help you get your C-legs?

yeah

icscloud: git.dero.io/DERO_Foundation/RandomX

This implementation has one bug, which they discuss.

But, perhaps you may find it more readable?

<icscloud[m]> "yes most for that, also i was..." <- You can mine from android using xmrig or monerod etc

* You can mine from android using xmrig or monerod etc

Ive had anywhere from 60h/s - 700+

> <@w:monero.social> You can mine from android using xmrig or monerod etc

> Ive had anywhere from 60h/s - 700+

using termux

but it would be better with an app made just for that

or at least easuer if someone wants to mine using a phone even if it would be kind of useless, but 700hs is a good number

it is a range i know, but still, that's a good one

<icscloud[m]> "but it would be better with an..." <- There is an app

A few actually

where

This is one id like to see forked for xmrig

Should be a drop in replacement

This one is xmrig

playstore doesn't load the link

<icscloud[m]> "> <@w:monero.social> https://..." <- Search

Xmrig for android

<icscloud[m]> "> <@w:monero.social> https://..." <- Yes

Just needs

- to be set to randomx instead of scala

- xmrig instead of xlarig (not necessary, but ideal. Xlarig is xmrig + scala support. But xlarig is based on older xmrig. )

<w[m]> "Xmrig for android" <- i tried but it doesn't show up

Maybe Geo restricted ?

<w[m]> "Maybe Geo restricted ?" <- i think so

most of the program is written in type script

crazy

ther3 is very little of java there
