02:38:15 <m-relay> <k​ayabanerve:matrix.org> Uhhh is moneromooo on Matrix?
02:38:35 <m-relay> <k​ayabanerve:matrix.org> I don't believe so and m-relay doesn't do PMs
03:07:51 <DataHoarder> they are here on IRC yep
03:08:19 <DataHoarder> and yeah it's a pure user passing messages, not one whole bridge per user each way
03:43:20 <m-relay> <k​ayabanerve:matrix.org> DataHoarder: Yeah, yeah, I get it. I'll spin up an IRC client...
03:46:42 <m-relay> <k​ayabanerve:matrix.org> Wow, I cannot connect 😎
03:46:53 <m-relay> <k​ayabanerve:matrix.org> They ban my proxy unless I find my old IRC config which has auth configured...
03:59:48 <DataHoarder> probably tor or other VPN range
04:00:16 <DataHoarder> https://libera.chat/guides/sasl#sasl-access-only-ip-ranges
06:15:31 <geonic> the old bridge didn't do PMs either. at least not reliably.
06:58:39 <m-relay> <m​onerooo:monero.social> Hey, I am looking for a backend developer (PHP) who is proficient in object oriented programming (OOP). There is a Monero payment gateway to be created as a plugin for WoltLab Suite Core. Web node queries via Guzzle and rate data functions still need to be created. 
06:58:39 <m-relay> <m​onerooo:monero.social> I can send more details if you are interested. The plugin will be offered for free after completion.
10:05:52 <m-relay> <r​ucknium:monero.social> moner.ooo: Ask recanman or anarkiocrypto
11:26:33 <m-relay> <m​onerooo:monero.social> anarkiocrypto:matrix.org or halogen.city?
11:31:04 <m-relay> <r​ucknium:monero.social> Try both.
13:17:11 <Guest3> heya
13:17:24 <Guest3> where can I find the format of the monero header?
13:19:06 <rbrunner> I don't understand. What is the "Monero header"?
13:19:19 <Guest3> looking for some docs on the exact byte layout of monero blocks
13:21:10 <rbrunner> I doubt whether that exists. Normally it's not necessary to knw, the "byte layout" just happens, when data in the blocks gets serialized
13:23:42 <Guest3> alright, can someone point me in the direction of the monerod that accepts a blob from xmrig?
13:24:22 <Guest3> sorry I'm just not very familiar with the monero code base and I don't mind parsing the code, but I don't know which folder to even look in
13:24:56 <Guest3> *in the direction of the monerod _code__
13:30:08 <rbrunner> Not sure. I would start to investigate "bool core_rpc_server::on_submitblock" in the file "src/rpc/core_rpc_server.cpp"
13:31:02 <Guest3> thanks
13:32:36 <rbrunner> https://github.com/monero-project/monero/blob/8123d945f874548e87d3850b6633f047120ece45/src/cryptonote_basic/cryptonote_basic.h#L474
13:33:32 <rbrunner> Things like "BEGIN_SERIALIZE" are the macros there which decide the serialization and hence the byte format
13:37:23 <Guest3> found some stuff in cryptonote_boost_serialization
13:37:38 <moneromooo> Pretend you didn't see it.
13:38:10 <moneromooo> (it is unrelated)
13:38:22 <moneromooo> You want srec/serialization
14:00:06 <Guest3> thanks, that helps
20:29:27 <m-relay> <d​olores.sabaneta:matrix.org> I want to state for the record that I did not in fact read "Zero to Monero" I confused it for "Mastering Monero". I am reading it now and I'm already lost. If there was a material or a way of learning that helped you understand EC cryptography, I'm curious to know.
21:18:21 <m-relay> <s​needlewoods_xmr:matrix.org> I'm currently working on understanding it (Zero to Monero), too .. still at Basic Concepts, but already learned something about modular arithmetic and some aspects of EC, those words have sounded like alien terminology a few weeks ago
21:18:50 <m-relay> <s​needlewoods_xmr:matrix.org> so my advice would be, take your time, take notes and look at multiple sources to understand a topic
21:19:13 <m-relay> <d​olores.sabaneta:matrix.org> Thank you.
21:29:05 <m-relay> <a​ck-j:matrix.org> SNeedlewoods: consider publishing notes to help other lay-people get past the alien jargon
21:51:43 <m-relay> <d​olores.sabaneta:matrix.org> Will try to do it too.
