For now, I read the first ~150 pages of Hippocrates, Acient Medicine, Vol. 1 - English translation by W.H.S. Jones. It did not strike me as "new age-y".

Being subject to the prejudice and technical limitations of the times is inescapable (the notion of "humors" may have made more sense without knowing of chemical reactions). The notes on the constitution of a patient's stool, fasting and diet are probably still valid. In the 'General Introduction' Jones notes that philosophy had aban 1129377;1431473007;gabriel_laddel;doned medicine and that medicine would have been better off to abandon philosophy. He also notes that "On Wounds in the Head" contains remarkably practical techniques that would have been extremely advanced had they discovered antiseptics. I don't know enough about the development of medicine to (dis)agree with this assessment, but will note that Semmelweis didn't discover antiseptics until ~1850 (and the medical co 1129378;1431473007;gabriel_laddel;mmunity then ignored his discovery). Contrast with "New Age medicine", which afaik, an ill-defined set of practices quite distanced from the leading edge of technology.

( http://bit.ly/1HctjnQ ) 1129390;1431473818;mod6;Allow me to elaborate for a minute here and I'll explain why I did what I did. 1129391;1431473928;mod6;To begin with, I was completely unfamiliar with gentoo in any sense -- aside from once trying to set it up from the Handbook, which I found that I didn't have time to work my way through and get it set up properly. So my goal was to get familiar with Gentoo and to start to build a system that can be agreed upon that suits our needs for building bitcoind. 1129392;1431474044;mod6;One of my goals was to get this going as soon as possible in AWS so we could continue with builds/testing/development and ditch Debian6. And additonally, I have a 350Gb storage volume there that I wanted to not just discard as it has at least half-a-dozen fully sync'd blockchains on there. 1129393;1431474111;mod6;So the idea was that I would learn a few things about Gentoo, get a hand-rolled stage3 + a fully blessed tool chain and be able to attch my "btc-dev" storage volume and just pick up where we left-off -- at lesat as far as what artifacts I'd already collected. 1129394;1431474216;mod6;Upon news of my endevour, Mr. P. asked me to document what I'd done carefully so we all can be on the same page -- which is also good because I don't know what I'm doing with Gentoo anyway. Having people look over what I'm doing provides some bit of steering in-case I get off course. 1129395;1431474319;mod6;So basically that's where we are. I've gotten to the point where I can create an AWS AMI -> deploy hand-rolled Gentoo instance. I'll certainly continue to build out the blessed toolchain over the next week and beyond. Further, then I'll take what I've learned from all of this and apply it to building a hand-rolled Gentoo on a bare-rails environment. 1129396;1431474336;mod6;Apparently this is not much different than what I've already done, but I really don't know. 1129397;1431474351;gabriel_laddel;mod6: have you looked into the portage sources? 1129398;1431474368;gabriel_laddel;I was poking around the other day - first there is ~70k LoC, which wtf seriously 1129399;1431474420;mod6;And lastly, I really need to get some sort of physical environment here to support that last part.

1133444;1431734021;BingoBoingo;Depends how implemented
1133445;1431734044;williamdunne;Right hand side, for example:

1133448;1431734131;mircea_popescu;seems a little silly
1133449;1431734161;williamdunne;Yeah pretty much
1133450;1431734179;williamdunne;To be perfectly honest the main motivation is knowing who reads my blog
1133451;1431734258;joecool;i have never subscribed to a blog
1133452;1431734285;mircea_popescu;you might get a half-complete list of idiots that read your blog, if you care.
1133453;1431734291;mircea_popescu;i haven't ever subscribed either
1133454;1431734313;joecool;mircea_popescu: probably mostly bots that subscribe and scrape content
1133455;1431734386;mircea_popescu;i think in some fields (retarded "make money while you sleep" "webmaster/businessmen" ; "infomercial products" from hyps to herbal whatevers ; etc) it might well work.

1133474;1431736360;cazalla;what size do the banners need to be
1133475;1431736368;copypaste;300x100 is the banner size.
1133476;1431736378;copypaste;GPG signatures arne't open to the public yet, just me.
1133477;1431736413;williamdunne;Who is responsible for w.b-a.link?
1133478;1431736442;mircea_popescu;https://8ch.net/meta/res/74759.html#74760 << lawl.
1133479;1431736502;mircea_popescu;copypaste ah ok. any plans to open them ?
1133480;1431736524;mircea_popescu;cazalla 728x90 for qntra, 300x100 for /btc/
1133481;1431736541;copypaste;Yes, but not immediate plans. When the system is finalized you would be able to upload a key, have it put in the server's keyring, then paste a signed message into the box. You would put the keyID in the email field and it would sign.
1133482;1431736557;copypaste;That's how I sign. I just haven't implemented the "everyone can put a key" thing yet.
1133483;1431736580;mircea_popescu;you can prolly steal the assbot/gribble code, depending what you run
1133484;1431736586;mircea_popescu;iirc gribble runs in python.
1133485;1431736590;copypaste;PHP
1133486;1431736615;mircea_popescu;i dun recall there being anything prewritten for that.
1133487;1431736645;copypaste;The system also would not handle concurrency well, due to the fact that it comes up with the ID by doing ls, then finding the biggest numbered text file in _g and adding one to it.
1133488;1431736653;copypaste;So, those two problems need to be fixed before everyone can sign.
1133489;1431736675;williamdunne;copypaste: I've done the everyone can put a key thing before, I can help you with that if you want..
1133490;1431736704;copypaste;Sure, there's another problem though - we have 3 servers that run PHP, so I need to sync the keyring across them, hehe.
1133491;1431736727;copypaste;I manually entered my pubkey into all three servers, but that's not possible for everyone signing...
1133492;1431736769;williamdunne;Oh..
1133493;1431736773;copypaste;Yeah, sorry. :(
1133494;1431736776;mircea_popescu;how do you handle your concurrency then ?
1133495;1431736788;williamdunne;The way I handled this was I had a separate server running with the keys
1133496;1431736789;copypaste;Well that only affects singing. Since I'm the only one that can sign
1133497;1431736797;copypaste;It's not a problem.
1133498;1431736801;williamdunne;And then requests were sent between the webservers and that server for things like signing
1133499;1431736815;copypaste;That's a better idea. I was thinking of just doing an NFS share.
1133500;1431736824;copypaste;With the keyring on it.
1133501;1431736833;copypaste;Fixing the archive is more urgent right now since it has a deadline.
1133502;1431736843;copypaste;I'll let you know when keys for everyone are available though :)
1133503;1431736852;mircea_popescu;aha.

1133626;1431740695;trinque;mircea_popescu: I added trilema and contravex, and yeah I think it's working
1133627;1431740701;mircea_popescu;williamdunne you can have a cpanel acct if it helps you

1133632;1431740789;*;mircea_popescu is kinda too lazy to set up a different server sharing scheme
1133633;1431740814;williamdunne;BingoBoingo: I attended a college for a short while, I was recording all of my work on a cpanel server. Had about a years worth of stuff on it when it fucked up

1133635;1431740825;trinque;lol
1133636;1431740827;BingoBoingo;Eh, cpanel's kinda the shared server standard
1133637;1431740884;williamdunne;The biggest problem with shared servers is that so often they are ridiculously underpowered and its hard to tell before you do so

1133641;1431740951;mircea_popescu;so 4chan is a gawker subsidiary now ?
1133642;1431740951;trinque;BingoBoingo: I "bashops" but there's no excuse for not having something whereby you can make configuration something you bundle and give a name, reuse
1133643;1431740951;williamdunne;DigitalOcean however lets you stick up a cheap ass VPS for what, $5 a month and you can auto setup wordpress. If you can't work out how to do the initial basic step with SSH you have no business running a website
1133644;1431740951;BingoBoingo;trinque: Sure there is, it is called a /etc/ fileset
1133645;1431740960;trinque;yeah that sucks ass; we have way better tools for code

1133647;1431740985;mircea_popescu;well no, because gawker being broke obviously there's nowhere less to go.

1133673;1431743641;trinque;as it stands my email program has to have logic about 'what if I didn't open an e-mail'
1133674;1431743809;trinque;wouldn't it be nice to simply declare the structure of an e-mail, and know that anything acting upon anything which claims to be an e-mail is going to be of a given structure?

1133913;1431781813;wiz;I've been reading your website recently, your blog articles are great
1133914;1431781819;wiz;Roger Ver first told me about your exchange a few weeks ago, I've been reading your site in my spare time since then
1133915;1431781833;mircea_popescu;cool.
1133916;1431781841;mircea_popescu;anything in particular ?
1133917;1431781846;wiz;and I'm listening to this video now, that's how I heard about the channel https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OWgPpDRo9AQ
1133918;1431781906;wiz;well, I really like the concept of "unregistered corporations"
1133919;1431781906;mircea_popescu;wait, someone made a youtube about b-a ?
1133920;1431781906;wiz;well he mentioned the channel several times so far in the presentation
1133921;1431781929;mircea_popescu;pretty cool
1133922;1431781986;wiz;it occured to me that once underground markets master the art of operatings as "unregistered corporations", they will be at a huge competitive advantage to state-registered corporations
1133923;1431782002;wiz;and eventually, corporations will migrate to being unregistered, to remain competitive
1133924;1431782040;wiz;i mean, not paying tax to the state, or being restricted by their regulations, etc. is a huge competitive advantage in any market, white or black
1133925;1431782100;mircea_popescu;kinda the idea.

1133934;1431784044;copypaste;I think that a style on the  tag like padding:0;margin:0 should fix it.

1134061;1431813023;jurov;really? how quickly ECL logic can do, say, one SHA step?
1134062;1431813158;asciilifeform;jurov: ecl (emitter-coupled logic) is a supposedly-obsolete way to build logical circuits (on any particular semiconductor chemistry) where a transistor is kept near switching point at all times, gaining speed at the expense of economy
1134063;1431813180;asciilifeform;it was used in certain '80s supercomputers.
1134064;1431813187;jurov;yes, i know. even had it at school
1134065;1431813216;jurov;pediwiki says "300 MHz flip-flop toggle rates".. and guess it would need flipflops if the SHA computaiton is pipelined
1134066;1431813219;asciilifeform;my symbolics lisp mach., interestingly, has a board with a good number of ecl discretes. turned out, this was the framebuffer. it was the only way to crunch ~200MHz at the time
1134067;1431813246;asciilifeform;jurov: check out a modern catalogue (e.g., 'digikey') - you can get ecl parts going into double-digit GHz
1134068;1431813271;asciilifeform;(assembling these into a circuit with 'weakest link' still permitting these speeds, is 'an exercise for the alert reader')
1134069;1431813292;jurov;heh had same thought
1134070;1431813323;asciilifeform;ecl miners probably live on the same planet as gallium arsenide, etc. miners.

1134072;1431813427;asciilifeform;while we're doing peculiar miners, one might also consider another lost technology, the 'integrated'... vacuum flask.
1134073;1431813469;jurov;rly? last time someone dig out "vacuum" microelectronics, you said academic wankery
1134074;1431813479;asciilifeform;because they needed a si fab
1134075;1431813504;asciilifeform;the whole point, here, is to avoid the statal spittoon dragged in by the use of si microfabrication.
1134076;1431813642;jurov;ah that. so, thinking about ECL, one basically needs to put together 2x80 identical circuits for two rouds of SHA1, and pipeline them, no?
1134077;1431813668;asciilifeform;potentially, one could create a sequential circuit of arbitrary complexity using laser-cut metallic baffles in a long glass vacuum flask.
1134078;1431813684;asciilifeform;on traditional principles of valve logic.

1134080;1431813736;asciilifeform;and when using exotic/handmade logic, you will probably take the opposite approach from a si designer - maximally 'un-unroll' the loops.
1134081;1431813748;asciilifeform;keeping the number of parts at a minimum.
1134082;1431813771;jurov;so you think about one SHA2 iteration feeding itself?

1134187;1431830622;asciilifeform;decimation: that dongle is just the thing for, e.g., pogo - but the rng is not a rs232 device...
1134188;1431830634;asciilifeform;it doesn't spit out start or stop bits
1134189;1431830639;decimation;heh

1134191;1431830717;asciilifeform;(if it did, it would be perfectly usable as rs232)
1134192;1431830717;asciilifeform;but it doesn't.
1134193;1431830717;decimation;did you intend to use an spi device
1134194;1431830717;asciilifeform;nope
1134195;1431830717;asciilifeform;it's raw rng
1134196;1431830720;decimation;ah I see
1134197;1431830729;asciilifeform;i.e. a pin that changes level when it wants.
1134198;1431830778;decimation;so really you need a '1-bit adc'
1134199;1431830779;asciilifeform;now, if you have a -very- well-behaved os, you could sample it as rs232 anyway. but then you discover (see old mircea_popescu article where we stepped on this caltrop!) that you end up losing bytes that match 'control' section of ascii table
1134200;1431830827;decimation;asciilifeform: or you could use a parallel port, if your computer has one
1134201;1431830835;asciilifeform;decimation: this was what i told ben_vulpes at c3
1134202;1431830839;asciilifeform;to use parallel port
1134203;1431830850;asciilifeform;or, if cannot find machine having such - sound card
1134204;1431830851;indiancandy1;huh
1134205;1431830855;decimation;one can still buy 'em even for pci express

1134208;1431830878;decimation;I would worry about potential noise in the sound card
1134209;1431830887;indiancandy1;wat r y talkin bout
1134210;1431830892;asciilifeform;decimation: the noise doesn't matter, rng outputs logic-level signal
1134211;1431830894;decimation;but if the levels are high enough and you use some kind of clipping algorithm it wouldn't be an issue

1134225;1431831102;asciilifeform;decimation: the problem with using sound card would be that it has ac-coupled input.

1134247;1431831270;williamdunne;yes
1134248;1431831287;asciilifeform;decimation: at any rate, the -correct- way to sample these for experimental purposes is with either parallel port or a generic i/o gadget (e.g., 'ftdi')

1134254;1431831383;decimation;asciilifeform: I suppose slight variation in the sampling clock (known to the enemy) would have very little effect on the output
1134255;1431831401;asciilifeform;decimation: the correct way to sample is at (within feasible limits) random intervals.
1134256;1431831413;asciilifeform;what one might call 'spread spectrum' clocking.

1134600;1431876423;asciilifeform;so here's my other observation:
1134601;1431876440;asciilifeform;we haven't really discussed it, but there are interesting implications in breaking a fella's pgp key.
1134602;1431876475;asciilifeform;mircea_popescu likes to speak of having 'killed' that greek derp, but in a very real sense the schmuck whose key we just broke, is dead
1134603;1431876503;asciilifeform;which is to say, i could sign, with his key, 'please rape me in public with a donkey' and it will be as legit as anything he will ever say himself
1134604;1431876506;asciilifeform;in the eyes of the gods
1134605;1431876607;asciilifeform;to rephrase, he no longer (if ever did) have sole control of his private key
1134606;1431876636;asciilifeform;and we must not neglect the third party - the fine folks who boobytrapped mr schmuck's copy of pgp.
1134607;1431876761;asciilifeform;if keys are identities are people - which, for purposes of wot and dealings among folks who will never meet in the flesh, they most certainly are - that one: has died.
1134608;1431876822;asciilifeform;phuctor does not send automatic emails. to anyone. so, let's see what happens when mircea_popescu writes to mr schmuck
1134609;1431876843;asciilifeform;but my point above was, what are we to do with the answer? it could be coming from just about anyone!

1134702;1431882634;mircea_popescu;anyway, i do encourage everyone to try this themselves.
1134703;1431882674;mxtm;now what do we do with our GPG keys and GPG in general :(
1134704;1431882678;Apocalyptic;asciilifeform, isn't Π(∀n) the product of all the modulus treated by phuctor ? how do you get $schmuck-Q * $otherschmuck-Q by dividing it by (schmuck-P ^ 2) ?
1134705;1431882721;mircea_popescu;mxtm we check implementations to make sure they're conformant to spec.
1134706;1431882726;mircea_popescu;the spec is in no way broken by this.
1134707;1431882778;mircea_popescu;oh also - if anyone has a hacker news account or w/e - put it in.
1134708;1431882796;asciilifeform;Apocalyptic: you are correct, the formula is missing a step. but i will leave it as exercise.
1134709;1431882825;Apocalyptic;asciilifeform, that calculation makes sense if Π(∀n) is in fact the product of only the two modulus we're interested in

1134717;1431883177;asciilifeform;the paper is worth reading, it contains a bit of exposition on -how- a schmuck might end up with dupped privates
1134718;1431883177;Apocalyptic;asciilifeform, also I noticed that "Moduli waiting to test" number is updated quite regularly, why the running product displays the same number of digits for a while now, I guess it doesn't update as often ?

1135127;1431890228;mircea_popescu;it seems tempting, tho there are sticking points. but in any case, as phuctor progresses we'll get a better idea.

1135267;1431892046;mircea_popescu;asciilifeform tbh i find the "broken in transit" explanation offered by the back to sleep camp particularly ridiculous.

1135269;1431892068;mircea_popescu;no checksums even, no crypto, nothing at all ?
1135270;1431892079;mircea_popescu;who is this supposed to persuade, exactly ?
1135271;1431892162;davout;the real thing here would be to actually find a GPG implementation that does not run the check that leads normal ones to simply discard this key

1135275;1431892245;mircea_popescu;maybe this is paort of a tandem with specific userland diddling.
1135276;1431892261;mircea_popescu;which would neatly explain why it HAS TO stay on sks servers.

1135291;1431892400;mircea_popescu;anyway, im not entirely sure we might ever see the diddled gpg that goes with this didlded key to produce anything interesting

1135294;1431892432;mircea_popescu;it would be, yes, if it were to somehow be found.
1135295;1431892442;asciilifeform;actually the necessary diddle would be small:

1135297;1431892451;davout;yep, not saying anything more

1135478;1431898056;mircea_popescu;aha. who're you ?
1135479;1431898061;alphonse23_;I came because of the 4096-rsa article
1135480;1431898079;mircea_popescu;aite.
1135481;1431898114;alphonse23_;mostly curious why HN would care to hide the story?
1135482;1431898126;alphonse23_;but from the article it was reported here.
1135483;1431898133;davout;re the bitbet, this guy had it: "So I can still drop bad keys on purpose? Or key had to be added before announcing this bet?"
1135484;1431898139;trinque;alphonse23_: interesting, eh? it plummeted from #1 very strangely
1135485;1431898145;mircea_popescu;graham, altman &co are butthurt because we regularly mock their "venture capitalism" ? i dunno
1135486;1431898148;mircea_popescu;!up tcrypt
1135487;1431898159;alphonse23_;HN has changed a lot in the pass few months
1135488;1431898168;alphonse23_;it's a lot more heavily moderated
1135489;1431898184;alphonse23_;i've been going there daily for years, and I've noticed the change
1135490;1431898186;mircea_popescu;davout that bet promises to be a conundrum to resolve.
1135491;1431898191;davout;no shit
1135492;1431898231;alphonse23_;but this, the mod manipulating titles -- for whatever reason. There's ton of down voting too.
1135493;1431898251;alphonse23_;it's like, their in league with the NSA now or something...
1135494;1431898257;mircea_popescu;eh, their site, they can do whatever they please.
1135495;1431898263;mircea_popescu;i don't personally use it.
1135496;1431898278;davout;the bet was misworded from the beginning, had someone intentionally created a set of shitty keys and fed the to the phuctor, it would resolve as yes
1135497;1431898303;davout;the title diddling on HN is documented in the comments actually
1135498;1431898312;mircea_popescu;the conundrum is more along the lines of "what constitutes a key"
1135499;1431898358;mircea_popescu;alphonse23_ anyway, the mistake here is for members of the public naive enough to imagine conde nast / ycombinator / etc sites represent anything but the alt-reality their owners have a financial interest in.
1135500;1431898369;davout;that's the easy part i think "anything recognized as such by asset's favorite gnupg version"
1135501;1431898369;trinque;this guy's making me write a test program to fix an include in glibc
1135502;1431898371;mircea_popescu;they will farm said naive members of the public for free content, yes.
1135503;1431898371;trinque;lol
1135504;1431898374;mircea_popescu;but that's as far as it goes.
1135505;1431898379;trinque;it's plainly visible looking at the header itself
1135506;1431898392;mircea_popescu;davout then i suppose it's not broken yet ?
1135507;1431898423;davout;mircea_popescu: well, if i craft a key whose factors are 1 and 3, theoretically it's a valid gpg key
1135508;1431898436;davout;if i then submit a key whose factors are 3 and 5
1135509;1431898449;davout;phuxxored they are, to yes the bet should resolve

1135513;1431898480;davout;mircea_popescu: right, the bet does specify the number of moduli to test

1135622;1431903995;ben_vulpes;people working for a link or publicity need to have some sort of assurance that their time so spent is going to yield a return.

1135624;1431904030;trinque;DreadKnight: doing the ad-supported thing is a loss leader at best; you have to be able to burn money until your audience is large enough to merit being paid for the # of eyeballs
1135625;1431904110;DreadKnight;ben_vulpes, a return is not always needed, some people do things for passion or practice; there are quite a few nice free open source games out there and software, most likely the browser you are making is done half by unpaid contributors
1135626;1431904129;DreadKnight;trinque, the ad crap is my last option

1135628;1431904203;ben_vulpes;just because she doesn't care about her boyfriend around that other guy doesn't mean diddly when it comes to your desire to get up her skirt
1135629;1431904204;DreadKnight;ben_vulpes, yeah, I'm aware, that's why it's perfectly fine to pay people to work on open source and it's why I need some funding or get better at coding
1135630;1431904264;DreadKnight;anyway, I partnered up with a coder this year, will see how that goes in the long run

1135813;1431911743;justJanne;Nah, I was just reading on the RSA factorization article where someone claimed this channel would still DDoS everyone who joins. Sadly I can’t see any of that (was hoping to see if it actually is true xD)
1135814;1431911775;danielpbarron;it comes and goes
1135815;1431911787;justJanne;I mean, I see some traffic, but it’s minimal.
1135816;1431911864;BingoBoingo;justJanne: It isn't anything done by any of the channel regulars. It's just some butthurt dickbag with an excess of unwarranted self importance who imagines they are saving the world by DoSing every ip they spot here
1135817;1431911899;justJanne;Reminds me of that guy spamming a gaming channel with links to their DDoSing company
1135818;1431911899;danielpbarron;i heard that it just targets the user who most recently joined, and especially if it is a new hostmask
1135819;1431912004;BingoBoingo;justJanne: Well the person doing it at first called themselves the reddit police and started by DoS'ing sites affiliated with regulars here. Then the sites beefed up and weren't so easy to DoS. So now they's had to settle for messing with home internet connections.
1135820;1431912006;justJanne;I got some traffic on my system from 159.118.187.45 accessing my server via HTTPS and sending a few thousand GET requests, but nothing really devastating
1135821;1431912037;williamdunne;lol what a tool
1135822;1431912039;justJanne;(I have a bouncer on my server with 1Gbps connection, so I rarely notice DDoS at all)
1135823;1431912063;mats;he's doing us a favor.
1135824;1431912069;BingoBoingo;People examining the traffic spotted that most of the zombies were ntp reflection and stuff anyone could walk away with, and they likely did leaving less to hit here with.

1135826;1431912115;justJanne;I have null-routed NTP and everything anyway
1135827;1431912187;justJanne;So, they really DDoS random people?
1135828;1431912194;justJanne;or, rather DoS
1135829;1431912412;BingoBoingo;justJanne: Yeah, just anyone without a freenode cloak who joins when their spybot is online here to pull the trigger
1135830;1431912435;justJanne;BingoBoingo: tell me when the bot is online, I’d like to analyze the traffic xD

1135975;1431918016;midnightmagic;mircea_popescu: The old Aurora attacks are an excellent example of the perversion of the idea of 'well-credentialed'. The people they had making comments about the SCM systems involved in that attack and the shoddy investigations going on were.. extreme.
1135976;1431918075;mircea_popescu;yeah. if i don't happen to know someone willing to vouch, you can have credentials coming out of your ears, i just see "idiot" in thick font. which is basically wot-ness.
1135977;1431918085;midnightmagic;I personally watched the responses internal to some of the companies involved and observed the evolution of the document they presented to the public. The people on whose opinions some of those documents were based were bullshit artists, borderline pathological, of the worst order.
1135978;1431918124;midnightmagic;mircea_popescu: Everything it seems, comes down to human trust evaluation.

1136211;1431936707;mircea_popescu;i don't know you, so no.

1136213;1431936816;mircea_popescu;that's fine, but it doesn't help.
1136214;1431936835;mircea_popescu;the right move would be to get in the wot, cultivate your presence here afterr which next time you may have an angle.
1136215;1431936838;mircea_popescu;at the moment, you do not.
1136216;1431937061;LC^;I want to write an article about your Phuctor-related findings.
1136217;1431937065;mircea_popescu;cool.

1136219;1431937118;LC^;so wanted to get your opinion on the issues that have been raised, mainly that the first key was not signed by the owner so was likely added by someone else, with or without malicious intent.
1136220;1431937146;LC^;and whether the other keys that have been factored are similar
1136221;1431937160;LC^;or are there indications that they've been generated by a broken generator
1136222;1431937197;LC^;I guess that is the main problem you're trying to highlight, correct? that some generators might be broken and generate weak keys
1136223;1431937235;mircea_popescu;there is at least one key with a p over nine digits.
1136224;1431937264;mircea_popescu;there are all sorts of classes of broken keys, which we're obviously still sorting through.
1136225;1431937296;mircea_popescu;that aside, the question of how exactly weak keys came to be, and what are they doing there and so on and so forth is not nearly as uninteresting as the usg agency would like to make it.
1136226;1431937390;LC^;are you suggesting that some software was intentionally sabotaged to produce weak keys?
1136227;1431937424;mircea_popescu;i am plainly saying that while the weak keys incontrovertibly exist, it's unclear why they exist. someone put the effort into making them, which is not exactly trivial.
1136228;1431937559;LC^;OK, but can they actually be used?  some argued that the weak key supposedly belonging to hpa can't be used to decrypt emails or other data encrypting by him because it was not signed by his real key
1136229;1431937633;LC^;can it be used for impersonation?
1136230;1431937633;mircea_popescu;this is factually correct. it is also not the whole story.
1136231;1431937648;LC^;OK, what is the whole story?
1136232;1431937665;mircea_popescu;one of the more interesting constructions as to the possible intended uses is, a tandem arrangement. it would work like so :
1136233;1431937671;LC^;I'm just trying to understand what the risk is here and why would someone create such keys, intentionally
1136234;1431937678;mircea_popescu;suppose someone needs to talk to hpa - either to verify his signature or to send him encrypted communications.
1136235;1431937687;LC^;ok..
1136236;1431937697;mircea_popescu;with a correctly working pgp implementation, the user connects ot a sks server, discards the wrong key and proceeds as expected.
1136237;1431937729;mircea_popescu;if however his pgp implementation is compromised in a specific way, the wrong key on the server may very well be the magic packet, causing it to behave in an unexpected - and not otherwise detectable - manner.
1136238;1431937747;mircea_popescu;such as, encrypt to it, or email the NSA, or whatever else.
1136239;1431937768;mircea_popescu;this sort of thing (the so called "fail to pass" testing) is the exact sort of stuff we've seen from the nsa to date, and so it would mesh with that experience.
1136240;1431937776;LC^;I see, so the key would serve as an exploit of sorts or a trigger
1136241;1431937783;mircea_popescu;but it is a theory - until someone produces such a diddled implementation it stays a theory.
1136242;1431937791;mircea_popescu;LC^ essentially.
1136243;1431937812;mircea_popescu;in any case, the idea that hpa is the target of that attack - if indeed it is an attack - are at best naive and at worst disinfo.
1136244;1431937822;mircea_popescu;clearly people looking at/for him would be the target, if anything.
1136245;1431937861;mircea_popescu;this, of course, is not the only mechanism that would allow such a key to exist. nevertheless, alternative explanations border on the risible.
1136246;1431937875;LC^;particularly people looking to send him highly confidential info that would need to be encrypted
1136247;1431937910;mircea_popescu;especially amusingm, the "key was damaged in transit" one. people p2p HD movies all day, nobody's seen this. gpg data moves around as archives - try flipping a byte in an archive see if you can stil lget the content. etc.
1136248;1431937917;mircea_popescu;LC^ yes.
1136249;1431937999;mircea_popescu;understand, opsec is extremely weak all over. including among supposedly experienced hackers. so, a simple scenario : guy with owned userland gpg sends secret info to hpa, it is magically encrypted to wrong key, email sniffed en route, secret is now known, but only to the people knowing what to look for. hpa responds with something like bad key, guy re-encrypts it and resends it.
1136250;1431938004;mircea_popescu;he never knows he's been compromised.
1136251;1431938021;mircea_popescu;nobody keeps track of "mysterious" errors etc.
1136252;1431938112;LC^;there are parts in some archive formats you can modify and the archive will still work, though year I understand your point, the suggested theory of damaged in transit would suggest random damaging not controlled modification
1136253;1431938146;mircea_popescu;how often have you moved a file across the tubes ? how often did it have a magically changed byte ?
1136254;1431938157;mircea_popescu;because i did lots of the former and the latter never occured.
1136255;1431938161;LC^;OK, what about the other keys? Are they similar to hpa's key? in the sense that they've been attached to other keys, but lack the proper signature?
1136256;1431938193;mircea_popescu;there are other people matching exactly hpa's profile (high value foss target) with keys apparently added in the same manner. not too many.
1136257;1431938197;mircea_popescu;there are also other types.
1136258;1431938314;LC^;how many keys have you found so far? do you plan to disclose the owners of the other keys that are similar to hpa's? it doesn't seem to be a big risk there for the owners
1136259;1431938377;*;adlai thinks a better question could be, "just quite how little human and computer labor did this experiment take?"
1136260;1431938388;mircea_popescu;there's been a total of three pairs, so six total keys to date. i have little doubt that as the program progresses through the list, more will be found. generally, the idea is to discuss this with the owners and them only.
1136261;1431938407;mircea_popescu;the case of hpa was exceptional because at the time the lightning struck (and understand just how unlikely the event we had on our hands this morning was), a call had to be made.
1136262;1431938424;mircea_popescu;in that particular circumstance, where an outside but present chance existed that the box was compromised itself.

1136264;1431938489;mircea_popescu;we might consider publishing the "harmless" keys, but for one thing i am not altogether convinced they're so harmless, and for another, much more interesting would be a hunt for diddled php implementations.
1136265;1431938495;mircea_popescu;now THAT would be something if found.
1136266;1431938533;LC^;have you attempted to notify the owners yet and have you had any responses from them?
1136267;1431938537;mircea_popescu;adlai i would guess something between 50 and 100 BTC's worth of S.NSA engineer's time, and maybe a few months-box worth of hardware.
1136268;1431938543;mircea_popescu;LC^ yes and no.
1136269;1431938593;mircea_popescu;not terribly costly, considering what "VC" firms spend and what they get for it.
1136270;1431938643;LC^;so do you expect your findings to inspire such a hunt?

1136475;1431975842;Pierre_Rochard;yup, read it, this is their latest post with more details
1136476;1431975842;Apocalyptic;ascii_field, can you comment on  "for after we demonstrate that one could 1) sign with the dud key" wait you can sign without fully factoring N ? this is news to me
1136477;1431975842;Apocalyptic;or did I misunderstand what you were saying ?
1136478;1431975843;ascii_field;Apocalyptic: which part is new to you ?
1136479;1431975883;Apocalyptic;ascii_field, the part where you can sign, which implies knowledge of the private exponent d without having fully factored the modulus N
1136480;1431975916;Apocalyptic;afaik you need to have phi(N) to get d from e, and computing phi(N) is equivalently hard as getting the factorization of N
1136481;1431975943;ascii_field;Apocalyptic: see earlier link re: lenstra. there are algos which are optimized for the kind of scenario which appears to exist here (a multitude of smaller primes rather than two extremely large ones)
1136482;1431975960;Apocalyptic;so I don't get how you can save this factorization exercice for after you sign something...
1136483;1431975962;ascii_field;thus i conjecture that full factorization can be had, at reasonable cost, if there is a reason to attempt it
1136484;1431975975;Apocalyptic;I'm not disputing that
1136485;1431975989;Apocalyptic;i'm disputing you can sign anything without having it first
1136486;1431976012;ascii_field;and what i meant was that one must demonstrate that one could  import the pubkey, somewhere, and verify material that was signed with it
1136487;1431976031;Apocalyptic;!up ascii_field
1136488;1431976046;Apocalyptic;I misunderstood what you were saying then
1136489;1431976110;ascii_field;i will say more later, promise.
1136490;1431976182;mircea_popescu;ascii_field sounds great.
1136491;1431976265;Apocalyptic;ascii_field, i'm still thinking about your "exercice for the reader" from yesterday as to how get $othersmuckQ without at least doing a division for every modulus encountered
1136492;1431976288;ascii_field;Apocalyptic: if you come up with answer to this, please wake me up
1136493;1431976306;Apocalyptic;heh, so there is none known to you ?
1136494;1431976323;ascii_field;Apocalyptic: not atm. but i'm currently occupied with other things
1136495;1431976336;Apocalyptic;oh, I thought you knew the answer and it was a challenge

1136511;1431976817;mircea_popescu;but this is why you want "the internet" to have its time to proffer its reactions.
1136512;1431976844;mircea_popescu;if you let them "agree" to "the reasonable" "explanation" you can laugh at them later. if you don't, it's gonna be "oh srsly we presented this before stanford" all over again
1136513;1431976863;ascii_field;betcha they're already working on the necessary 'powerpoint.'
1136514;1431976865;mircea_popescu;obviously, nobody is going to have to explain to anybody why they lied or anything, but hey. free internet!
1136515;1431976867;ascii_field;retro-dated.
1136516;1431976873;mircea_popescu;i don't think they can work this fast.
1136517;1431976880;mircea_popescu;which is kinda the point.
1136518;1431976954;ascii_field;in yet other news, one of the invalid-sig keys is a careful reduction of key size by 1 bit, and very interesting pattern of modifications to public N (not one-bit-flip and not from-this-point, but regularly spaced)
1136519;1431976966;ascii_field;the reduction requires altering a header field
1136520;1431976976;ascii_field;(if you've memorized rfc2440 by now you know this)
1136521;1431976983;ascii_field;cosmic rays know how to do this also, we learn

To complete the guide, i wanna test out all of the steps on real hardware so the steps are accurate. I believe it'll entail something like creating a USB boot image, then booting off of that, then creating a stage3 in a chroot, then deploying that to

1136658;1431981466;trinque;if you're booting from USB you can make the chroot a mount of the thing's own partitions

1136704;1431984651;mircea_popescu;justJanne the application here is that, if i give you a string of random numbers which unknown to you are the nth digit of pi onwards, you may think you have entropy by "tests".
1136705;1431984661;justJanne;the issue with pi is that it is a very slow RNG

1136796;1431986215;justJanne;not possible.
1136797;1431986221;justJanne;remember, we are working with ints
1136798;1431986239;justJanne;so the ! is necessary there to turn -1 into 1
1136799;1431986277;mircea_popescu;doesn't ! turn false into true ?!
1136800;1431986282;justJanne;kinda.

1136805;1431986306;justJanne;it would return 0 or -1

1136817;1431986370;justJanne;0 is false
1136818;1431986375;mircea_popescu;so then the fucntion returns true, false.

1136835;1431986762;justJanne;the in-browser DRM is a native binary that is pretty much stripped of any information, actually kinda hard to use, but the Android version of almost everything is stupid
1136836;1431986770;ascii_field;(there are notable exceptions, e.g., ilfak guilfanov)
1136837;1431986777;justJanne;(yes, Tidal uses a native plugin for in-browser DRM)
1136838;1431986788;mircea_popescu;justJanne what is tidal even ?
1136839;1431986801;justJanne;A music streaming service that streams lossless unedited FLAC files
1136840;1431986814;justJanne;about 1344kbps quality

1136842;1431986824;ascii_field;if lossless, why not pull'em out of /dev/pcm
1136843;1431986833;justJanne;I wanted a way to scrape them.
1136844;1431986839;trinque;streaming service that got whoever's still considered "famous" in music together, stamped their faces on the thing
1136845;1431986860;mircea_popescu;aha
1136846;1431986873;trinque;"so totally not spotify you see"
1136847;1431986878;justJanne;I found a way, but now I have a few thousand files encrypted, the corresponding PBKDF2WithHmacSHA1 encryption keys, but was too lazy to find the client-side salt for that
1136848;1431986914;justJanne;and the sound quality, tbh, is great. Just not worth 20$ a month
1136849;1431986992;trinque;ah I guess jay-z owns it
1136850;1431987024;mircea_popescu;is this the guy that owns burning man ?
1136851;1431987073;trinque;heh looks like there's some noise about dr dre being behind burning man
1136852;1431987085;trinque;damned hilarious if so, dunno about that
1136853;1431987173;mircea_popescu;oh different one k nm
1136854;1431987181;*;mircea_popescu can't distinguish rappers
1136855;1431987214;justJanne;The difference between Dr Dre and Jay Z? Jay Z’s product actually is something more than marketing speech
1136856;1431987232;ben_vulpes;wowee justJanne with the opinions
1136857;1431987233;justJanne;I mean, Beats are just cheap Philips headphones with a bass boost.
1136858;1431987237;justJanne;literally
1136859;1431987258;trinque;jay-z is probably the best of the rapper-turned-entrepreneurs, yes
1136860;1431987261;ben_vulpes;anyways, Tidal was a flip onto Jay Z who has yet to learn how horrifically expensive software is to build and maintain in fiatland.
1136861;1431987283;mircea_popescu;lawl.
1136862;1431987288;trinque;yup, the people who listen to him and beyonce aren't even paying for spotify
1136863;1431987311;mircea_popescu;wow beyonce is still a thing ?
1136864;1431987318;mircea_popescu;this is the hot model woman from 10 years ago right ?
1136865;1431987319;ben_vulpes;he'll blow a billi, and never touch software again.
1136866;1431987329;ben_vulpes;mircea_popescu: mami's still lookin good!

1136871;1431987366;ben_vulpes;3+ hours of high-octane beyonce wiggle
1136872;1431987369;justJanne;ben_vulpes: still, compared to all those 9000$ expensive audio cables, or Beats headphones, lossless FLAC has an advantage over 128kbps mp3

1136918;1431987687;ben_vulpes;justJanne: have you been following the glibc travails?

1136920;1431987701;trinque;yeah I'll grant browsers are going further towards "open techmology" whatever that means
1136921;1431987703;mircea_popescu;what now ? owned by a 19yo girl ? not even speaking her mother tongue ? HOW!!1 do you expect to end up bitter like me this wya ?
1136922;1431987730;trinque;hilarious also that the shit getting put into the browser is effectively whatw as in flash
1136923;1431987738;justJanne;trinque: not necessarily.
1136924;1431987754;mircea_popescu;im really impressed with stuff like gyfcat or w/e that was called.
1136925;1431987755;justJanne;Now I can just grep through the JS, find the link to the .mp4, and wget it, and watch it offline
1136926;1431987758;justJanne;I remember the sad days of having to decompile swf objects just to rip a video.
1136927;1431987764;justJanne;or using *cringe* realplayer
1136928;1431987770;mircea_popescu;and 8chan was, to my surprise, chock full of html5 videos that work just fine.
1136929;1431987776;mircea_popescu;youtube does not work for me, but 8chan does.
1136930;1431987786;trinque;flash was just another ecmascript runtime thing

1136950;1431987916;trinque;anyhow what are we addressing here. I was reminiscing about opennap servers
1136951;1431987919;justJanne;trinque: one funny example: http://i.imgur.com/k9BZPhT.png
1136952;1431987979;justJanne;(screenshot from DDG)
1136953;1431987993;trinque;that looks like someone's stupid js data bindey thing fucked up
1136954;1431987997;trinque;what am I looking for
1136955;1431988009;justJanne;exactly
1136956;1431988017;justJanne;JS webapps that do everything in-browser
1136957;1431988027;justJanne;makes the job a lot harder for crawlers
1136958;1431988037;trinque;I approve of you having independently discovered that this is a shit way to do things.
1136959;1431988060;justJanne;when my crawler stopped working due to this,
1136960;1431988073;trinque;subcategory of... JS is an appalling language and bolted to the DOM it's even worse
1136961;1431988085;mircea_popescu;trinque i dunno dood, i love the select thing on trilema.
1136962;1431988088;mircea_popescu;first time i ever used js.
1136963;1431988098;justJanne;JS has some nice parts.
1136964;1431988109;justJanne;like that it encourages them to use more functional code
1136965;1431988109;adlai;justJanne: dunno, it seems obvious that if you want to crawl the luser-visible web, you simulate the luser, not curl
1136966;1431988128;justJanne;adlai: yes, but in 2008 you could just curl the web and get it all
1136967;1431988147;mircea_popescu;and in 2010 you could cpu mine
1136968;1431988156;justJanne;in 2010 you could throw wget -r on the new york times and get, after a few weeks, half of the web.
1136969;1431988176;mircea_popescu;more like a fifth, and if using slashdot.
1136970;1431988176;justJanne;if your parents didn’t kill you for the dialup bill, though
1136971;1431988185;trinque;mircea_popescu: I can't argue with HTML being a decent way of publishing articles; seems to have worked out pretty well
1136972;1431988206;trinque;I do think many "web apps" of today would do better to be written as native code which just opens a socket for data
1136973;1431988206;mircea_popescu;trinque the selector thing is specific js tho, and it does something not afaik doable in html per se
1136974;1431988223;mircea_popescu;something that i want so badly, i would never give up

1136981;1431988324;justJanne;it’s not just limited to that.

1136983;1431988336;justJanne;you might end up with governmental websites using JS for access control.

1136988;1431988380;mircea_popescu;you don't understand how the law works, trinque
1136989;1431988385;trinque;it is *real*!!!
1136990;1431988409;mircea_popescu;here's a simple explanation catering to you specifically : it's not a truth finding mechanism, it's a consensus building mechanism.
1136991;1431988422;mircea_popescu;it's point is not to produce sicence, but to prevent people from clobbering each other.
1136992;1431988424;mircea_popescu;geddit ?
1136993;1431988430;justJanne;we’re talking here about a government where the chancellor has a PhD in Quantum Chemistry – obviously not stupid, but evil.
1136994;1431988455;trinque;mircea_popescu: yes that makes sense re: law
1136995;1431988470;mircea_popescu;so "prove i did it" has a very simple counter : if you weigh the same as a duck
1136996;1431988472;mircea_popescu;you're made of wood
1136997;1431988475;trinque;ahahaha
1136998;1431988476;mircea_popescu;and therefore, my bitch!
1136999;1431988503;trinque;of course; it's something I may run into or not, but I will not try to make sense of wooden ducks
1137000;1431988520;mircea_popescu;best burn down any large scales of that kind.
1137001;1431988529;trinque;justJanne: someone requires I use thing X as part of my browser, and that's the day I stop using browsers
1137002;1431988536;justJanne;the law literally says "if you access an electronical data computation system unauthorized"
1137003;1431988539;mircea_popescu;what, like you stopped using glibc ?

1137023;1431988884;mircea_popescu;they do a trick, for frozen cgi, which is very hard to do by hand, where they fold her face in a particular moe pattern. amusingly enough - this is very similar to how pharma works, because it involves searching the space of possible facefolds for something that's not in the uncanny valley and works.

1137086;1431990403;jurov;ben_vulpes: what was the problem with the overlay?
1137087;1431990440;btcg;random question: what do you folks think of the proposed embedded mining from 21?
1137088;1431990466;btcg;i wonder how they'll run a full node, i guess there's the ~1.2 gig pruned node
1137089;1431990475;ben_vulpes;jurov: i don't think i actually understand how they're supposed to work.
1137090;1431990513;btcg;i saw mod6's comment how would a phone support a full node
1137091;1431990519;mats;mircea_popescu: wait six months i guess

1137093;1431990579;danielpbarron;btcg, chip doesn't need full node to mine; all chips probably phone home to central node for the next header to work on
1137094;1431990579;trinque;ben_vulpes: if you want to hack best just stick the source in your home directory

1137096;1431990579;trinque;making an ebuild is more along the lines of packaging up your thing and shipping it

1137098;1431990579;mircea_popescu;btcg that it's ridiculous.

1137100;1431990588;trinque;there are a few magical files that need to be inside /usr/local/portage or wherever the overlay may be

1137103;1431990627;jurov;ben_vulpes: but yes, hacking on the source is best in your homedir. only after it compiles there, feed to portage
1137104;1431990652;trinque;mircea_popescu: there's an (american?) phenomenon there where innovating means crapping together however many things that already existed, and calling it something new

1137212;1431992988;mircea_popescu;admittedly, i'm more like a 1700s mind.
1137213;1431992996;justJanne;anyway, it works here.
1137214;1431993002;mircea_popescu;to me, the difference between soviets and nazis is nil : both were socialists.
1137215;1431993023;mircea_popescu;no, it doesn't. that's the fallacy of "we can't compare to any alternatives, as thery don't exist - so it works fine!!1"
1137216;1431993026;mircea_popescu;ever read candide ?
1137217;1431993029;justJanne;like 90% of all firemen here, for example, work for free. volunteers. No pay, nothing. They risk their lives for nothing, while still having a normal job at the same time.
1137218;1431993052;trinque;why should they not be paid for dangerous work?
1137219;1431993062;justJanne;because they are volunteers.
1137220;1431993064;mircea_popescu;moreover, why is some people's preference a basis for law ?
1137221;1431993074;mircea_popescu;let those firemen do whatever the fuck they please and pay me.
1137222;1431993078;justJanne;the idea is: if society is well enough,
1137223;1431993084;justJanne;then people will work literally for free,
1137224;1431993089;mircea_popescu;society is about as meaningful a concept as baby jesus.
1137225;1431993089;justJanne;just to provide a benefit for everyone
1137226;1431993104;mircea_popescu;and yes, people behave stupidly all the time
1137227;1431993108;mircea_popescu;this is no valid argument.
1137228;1431993109;justJanne;it’s not stupid.
1137229;1431993113;mircea_popescu;says who ?
1137230;1431993142;justJanne;everyone?
1137231;1431993147;mircea_popescu;apparently not.
1137232;1431993159;justJanne;obviously it works well in the countries with the highest standard of living –
1137233;1431993166;mircea_popescu;(and here we go again, The Narrative is fragile)
1137234;1431993167;justJanne;all across scandinavia and central europe
1137235;1431993175;mircea_popescu;no, it works absolutely nowhere.
1137236;1431993187;mircea_popescu;just, some people are momentarily insulated from the effects of their stupidity.
1137237;1431993198;justJanne;No.
1137238;1431993201;mircea_popescu;just like - unprotected sex works fine "in those places where syplhilis hasn't appeared yet".
1137239;1431993210;mircea_popescu;sure. won't last. by the very nature of what unprotected sex is, it won't last.
1137240;1431993212;justJanne;that’s not the thing.
1137241;1431993224;justJanne;this system of society has lasted for centuries
1137242;1431993235;mircea_popescu;nope. it's barely five decades old, and already cracking.
1137243;1431993236;justJanne;the volunteering fire brigade system has existed since the 1400s
1137244;1431993244;mircea_popescu;ah, that. again :  let those firemen do whatever the fuck they please and pay me.
1137245;1431993266;justJanne;the consumer cooperatives operating non-profit chains of grocery stores have also existed since the 1800s
1137246;1431993288;mircea_popescu;and necrophillic pedophillia has existed since 50`000 years ago.
1137247;1431993292;mircea_popescu;so what of it ?
1137248;1431993315;justJanne;It’s obviously more stable than the economical system plagued of bubble bursts that is existing at Wall Street nowadays
1137249;1431993333;mircea_popescu;the system you discuss IS the other system you discuss.
1137250;1431993340;mircea_popescu;there's no difference there, just a meaningless distinction.
1137251;1431993342;justJanne;no.
1137252;1431993379;mircea_popescu;well, if you manage to survive emotionally, your stay in #b-a is bound to be instructive.
1137253;1431993385;justJanne;the first system I discuss in scandinavia or central europe is a place where 60% of the companies have existed for centuries, have long term neither profit nor losses, and no growth
1137254;1431993400;justJanne;which isn’t really necessary
1137255;1431993408;justJanne;tbh, it’s the only really sustainable way
1137256;1431993454;trinque;sounds like an environment where it'd be difficult to get anything new started

1137258;1431993474;justJanne;not really. There are many startups here, actually.
1137259;1431993496;justJanne;the thing is that most of these don’t aim for a huge profit,
1137260;1431993510;justJanne;but aim for slow growth and a sustainable profit.
1137261;1431993519;trinque;oh youngin
1137262;1431993544;justJanne;yes, that actually works.
1137263;1431993558;justJanne;you don’t need to aim for 1 billion users with your 5 people startup to be sustainable
1137264;1431993566;trinque;you'll get no argument from me on that
1137265;1431993577;trinque;but that is not tantamount to saying "therefore social democracy"
1137266;1431993581;trinque;not even close
1137267;1431993587;justJanne;ofc nto.
1137268;1431993588;justJanne;not
1137269;1431993594;justJanne;we are at a completely different point now
1137270;1431993598;justJanne;sadly.
1137271;1431993620;jurov;https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EO5ectGTcOU justJanne: the "sustained" was just your luck that usg needed to prop you up
1137272;1431993680;trinque;if we presuppose that the only way to start a business will be having someone bankroll you, we're already lost
1137273;1431993680;trinque;central planning has limitations which will mean that you get far fewer "startups"
1137274;1431993680;justJanne;trinque: that is socialism
1137275;1431993680;justJanne;not social democracy
1137276;1431993680;justJanne;social democracy consists of a social market:
1137277;1431993680;trinque;justJanne: you just misunderstand my definition of central planning
1137278;1431993689;justJanne;essentially a free market, but with 50% taxes and basic income
1137279;1431993707;trinque;uh huh and who determined those are the magic numbers?
1137280;1431993732;trinque;give me a low cost of living and don't tax the shit out of me and I'll start all kinds of businesses
1137281;1431993732;justJanne;the people? that’s why you have (a) elections and (b) public polls on them?
1137282;1431993754;justJanne;we have a party that aims for that.
1137283;1431993758;trinque;determining that 50% taxes is the magic number is not soviet because "the people"
1137284;1431993764;justJanne;they got less than 4% of the votes last election
1137285;1431993794;danielpbarron;the people are stupid
1137286;1431993810;justJanne;no. they just know that one day they might lose their job,
1137287;1431993818;trinque;danielpbarron: heh I always like "surgery by your peers" as a thought experiment
1137288;1431993821;justJanne;and that it is preferable to be safe over having high returns
1137289;1431993833;trinque;justJanne: you are completely ignoring the financial considerations involved
1137290;1431993840;trinque;and substituting "consent" for that
1137291;1431993869;justJanne;trinque: you get all those 50% taxes back to you. In free child daycare, free healthcare, etc.
1137292;1431993870;danielpbarron;high returns is a safeguard against starving when you lose your job; it leads to savings
1137293;1431993883;BingoBoingo;asciilifeform: Morphine yeast seems like a bigger blow to the fiat order than 3D guns and shovel AK's for sure
1137294;1431993902;justJanne;danielpbarron: unless you lose it all, and have no money and are starving
1137295;1431993906;trinque;danielpbarron: and results in a person that can *make decisions*
1137296;1431993914;trinque;justJanne: then you made bad decisions
1137297;1431993917;trinque;or someone else did
1137298;1431993922;justJanne;yes.
1137299;1431993934;justJanne;but society is there to save you from the consequences of bad decisions ;P
1137300;1431993935;trinque;so how did I get involved in that?
1137301;1431993946;danielpbarron;why should someone who is prone to "lose it all" be propped up by his more productive neighbors?
1137302;1431993950;justJanne;especially when you aren’t responsible
1137303;1431993950;trinque;justJanne: so out of this bundle of bad decisons how do good ones emerge?
1137304;1431993975;trinque;danielpbarron: because govt is the new god and he can save us from even death
1137305;1431993978;trinque;or she, I guess these days
1137306;1431993997;justJanne;danielpbarron: because they have a chance to work later on again?
1137307;1431994017;danielpbarron;this notion that you can be born "not responsible" is the false axiom from which you base further positions
1137308;1431994018;justJanne;it is more profitable, for example, to put criminals into a trade school and let them work again than to put them into a prison
1137309;1431994035;mats;why should society save you from yourself? that's not sustainable in the least.
1137310;1431994042;trinque;justJanne: you cannot assert such things absent the financial considerations
1137311;1431994085;trinque;we can imagine all sorts of ideal scenarios if we're free to disregard parts of reality we don't like
1137312;1431994094;jurov;yeah, it is actually true providing shelter to homeless is cheaper than let them die and dispose of properly
1137313;1431994096;justJanne;so, in your minds, the Comcast/ATT/Verizon oligopol is good?
1137314;1431994128;mats;oligopolies are not inherently evil, you know.
1137315;1431994128;trinque;justJanne: what keeps them from being outcompeted?
1137316;1431994130;danielpbarron;justJanne, your society is a prison; that is, the one in which there is no individual and only the considerations of the lowest common denominator
1137317;1431994139;trinque;too much noise; one point at a time.
1137318;1431994141;justJanne;trinque: cost.
1137319;1431994146;trinque;incorrect
1137320;1431994151;justJanne;the starting cost is extreme.
1137321;1431994167;justJanne;and the oligopols lobby corrupt politicians, too
1137322;1431994173;trinque;justJanne: are you familiar with "regulatory capture"
1137323;1431994182;trinque;sure cost but what makes it expensive
1137324;1431994188;justJanne;and yes, mats, in my opinion all monopolies or oligopolies are inherently evil
1137325;1431994195;trinque;but not governments
1137326;1431994199;mats;justJanne: because "its not fair"?
1137327;1431994201;trinque;the largest of them
1137328;1431994204;justJanne;mats: yes.
1137329;1431994210;mats;because everyone should get a shot at being a telecoms company!
1137330;1431994226;justJanne;mats: yes, but you have to ask the question different.

1137336;1431994259;justJanne;I get 100/40mbps for 10$ a monht
1137337;1431994265;justJanne;and they are profitable
1137338;1431994266;cazalla;you might pay $100 to them in tax but you sure as fuck don't get back $100 worth of childcare when it's free
1137339;1431994268;trinque;try doing radio experiments in your garage and see how long it takes for the FCC to show up

1137344;1431994315;mats;justJanne: b-but don't you believe in freedom?
1137345;1431994338;mats;its entirely possible that monopolies, oligopolies will naturally arise in conditions of voluntary trade

1137360;1431994443;hanbot;butr you said...
1137361;1431994465;justJanne;the issue with monopolies is that the companies behind it try to do everything in their mind to avoid competition.
1137362;1431994469;justJanne;which is inherently evil
1137363;1431994476;trinque;justJanne: you find me a "monopoly" in history that didn't have govt protection

1137371;1431994507;danielpbarron;she has no idea what "evil" is
1137372;1431994517;mats;the point of being a business is to brutally murder your competition. there's no avoidance going on.
1137373;1431994528;cazalla;my point was more that the idea that you get back what you pay in taxes by way of free healthcare and childcare is retarded
1137374;1431994540;mats;it just happens that the moat is too high for joe commoner to cross.
1137375;1431994541;jurov;cazalla: the $1000 figure stays even more so if you're to stay home
1137376;1431994565;jurov;and if you pay your own doctor
1137377;1431994568;jurov;own teacher
1137378;1431994570;jurov;etc...
1137379;1431994578;danielpbarron;cazalla, it's practically a mathematical proof : the further detached money gets from the person it is meant to benefit, the less efficiently it will be spent
1137380;1431994597;justJanne;that’s why politicians are supposed to be normal people.

1137419;1431994874;danielpbarron;what do you mean it includes life savings?
1137420;1431994880;justJanne;retirement funds, sorry
1137421;1431994885;justJanne;translation is hard ;P
1137422;1431994891;trinque;danielpbarron: people can't think for themselves and store away for the future
1137423;1431994893;cazalla;justJanne, ya know what shit won't be there when you're older, right?
1137424;1431994903;danielpbarron;right but how does it include that if it's taxes? the government forces you to have a savings plan?
1137425;1431994910;trinque;so you just breed an irresponsible generation of fools and somehow those same fools don't inhabit the govt and make sure everyone has savings
1137426;1431994913;justJanne;kinda, but not.
1137427;1431994922;*;trinque pulls himself away
1137428;1431994925;mats;i get that you grew up in a soft place, and believe all folks deserve a fair shot at doing whatever it is they feel
1137429;1431994940;mats;its a beautiful notion. its also not going to happen unless we go post-scarcity, upon which we will revisit the whole thing
1137430;1431994956;danielpbarron;except it's a very specific shot as per what the normal people voted on
1137431;1431994961;justJanne;there are some laws: (a) every insurance has to provide a basic plan for the same price, (b) everyone has to have at least this plan, or more
1137432;1431994963;mats;'star trek' is a hell for some folks.

1137435;1431994995;jurov;justJanne: do you know what this nordic model did to one Eric Naggum?
1137436;1431995006;justJanne;mats: Star Trek is heaven, and an amazing solution. Although I’m thinking DS9 Star Trek, not TOS Star Trek
1137437;1431995006;assbot;AMAZING COMPANY!
1137438;1431995018;mats;'solution'
1137439;1431995018;trinque;mats: goddamn when jayne tears up over his very own riot
1137440;1431995024;trinque;best tv there ever was
1137441;1431995031;mats;replace with fantasy, man.
1137442;1431995053;justJanne;mats: DS9-Star Trek is pretty much real.
1137443;1431995053;danielpbarron;no wonder you think this can work; you saw it work on TV!
1137444;1431995066;mats;trinque: its good stuff, i've watched every ep prob a half dozen times
1137445;1431995072;justJanne;with a combination of free trade (think Quark), and basic life enough for everyone
1137446;1431995077;danielpbarron;you know star trek is a work of fiction, right? those were all a bunch of professional liars
1137447;1431995090;justJanne;yes, ofc.
1137448;1431995097;danielpbarron;i don't think you fully grasp that
1137449;1431995097;mats;you want free trade, but no monopolies or oligopolies.
1137450;1431995106;justJanne;although, tbh, when watching politicians speak, you ask yourself who is the larger liar
1137451;1431995121;danielpbarron;you're the one advocating for politicians
1137452;1431995124;justJanne;mats: yes.

1137455;1431995158;mats;nordic model works because you live in a universe that appears utterly detached from economic reality
1137456;1431995160;justJanne;the idea is that you have basic life just enough for everyone available,
1137457;1431995164;jurov;danielpbarron: so you get to keep all your money, i ask again?
1137458;1431995175;justJanne;and then you have a highly competitive, almost unrestricted market for the rest
1137459;1431995181;danielpbarron;what money?
1137460;1431995190;mats;because, well, benefits of superior geography.
1137461;1431995218;jurov;danielpbarron: since you so hate taxes
1137462;1431995224;mats;where the fuck are you going to raise capital for basic income in somalia?
1137463;1431995243;jurov;mats leave that to billg
1137464;1431995256;mats;somalia's not so different from the rest of the world. quite a bit ahead of its time, really
1137465;1431995256;danielpbarron;justJanne, people who fall on hard times should be compelled into slavery by their more productive neighbors; they should not get to treat the whole community like their undeserved slave
1137466;1431995281;danielpbarron;jurov, all but 0.1% of it :p
1137467;1431995281;justJanne;you misuse the word "community"
1137468;1431995297;justJanne;you can only live, and work, because of the people around you
1137469;1431995310;mats;shall we talk about monopolies that benefit the commoners?
1137470;1431995313;justJanne;and the same way the other way round
1137471;1431995322;danielpbarron;no, I can work and live despite the people around me
1137472;1431995336;justJanne;ah, the good old "I can live in a cave" defense
1137473;1431995372;justJanne;I wonder how you’d do without the people taking away your trash, the people putting out the fires, the people cleaning your streets
1137474;1431995386;danielpbarron;there wouldn't be streets if it were just me
1137475;1431995397;danielpbarron;the situation would be so entirely different as to be impossible to compare
1137476;1431995415;mats;lets use the US Postal Service as a model. something like 200 junk mailers are responsible for pumping $billions into the thing, and they pay a pretty penny to be able to shit in your box at commercial rates (in US, cost of letter is $0.49 -- junk mailers pay 5x that)
1137477;1431995447;justJanne;let’s talk about different, benefitial monopolies.
1137478;1431995470;mats;without junk mailers, we'd be paying several dollars apiece just to send letters. DHL, FedEx, ... simply couldn't exist without the USPS in USA
1137479;1431995478;justJanne;nah, not really.
1137480;1431995480;mats;because they are responsible for last mile delivery in many cases.
1137481;1431995485;mats;yes, absolutely really.
1137482;1431995488;justJanne;DHL makes most of its profit in one single place.
1137483;1431995504;justJanne;in the place where Deutsche Post DHL has its main business:
1137484;1431995511;justJanne;parcel and delivery service in Europe
1137485;1431995530;justJanne;yes, they can transport a package for 20$ across the continent over night, and make a profit.
1137486;1431995547;justJanne;sadly, the workers make nothing more than basic income from it
1137487;1431995584;danielpbarron;sadly? why is that sad?
1137488;1431995605;jurov;yes, raise minimal wages, fire everyone, replace with machines
1137489;1431995614;justJanne;no,
1137490;1431995632;justJanne;it is sad because under your assumptions those people shouldn’t work at all
1137491;1431995646;justJanne;they make no more money,
1137492;1431995650;justJanne;and spend their time!
1137493;1431995665;mats;this is exactly how it is in the US.
1137494;1431995685;justJanne;Then why do they still work?
1137495;1431995691;mats;they don't.
1137496;1431995700;mats;~8mn draw supplementary security income, for example.
1137497;1431995723;mats;folks in various programs draw $300-600/mo in govt kindness, and being worthless as they are,
1137498;1431995725;justJanne;So, it's better to provide straight out subsidies than to have minimum wage?
1137499;1431995751;justJanne;A minimum wage might encourage the company to actually be more efficient.
1137500;1431995775;mats;would rather take it than work at McDonalds for just shy of a thousand bux a month
1137501;1431995813;mats;subsidies AND minimum wages are a shit idea.
1137502;1431995821;mats;you follow? let the market set the conditions.

1137504;1431995871;justJanne;Minimum wage doesn't hurt the market.
1137505;1431995878;danielpbarron;justJanne, a minimum wage prices the cheap labor out of the market (the company will prefer not to hire them at all)
1137506;1431995888;justJanne;Yes.
1137507;1431995907;mats;you're high if you think setting a price floor in a market doesn't unduly affect market conditions
1137508;1431995912;danielpbarron;so instead of making [not enough money], they will make 0.
1137509;1431995954;mats;its time to give up the childish fantasies and carefully reexamine your beliefs
1137510;1431995973;jurov;And high rents and other life costs  won't "unduly affect market conditions"?
1137511;1431995981;jurov;Pls explain
1137512;1431995992;*;BingoBoingo still imagining tumblr folk brewing their own Laudnum. If opiate abuse is already straining the fiat world so...
1137513;1431996006;justJanne;The median German pays less money for health care than the median US person.
1137514;1431996012;justJanne;You pay more. And get less.
1137515;1431996018;justJanne;You have higher taxes,
1137516;1431996025;justJanne;And less free education or healthcare.
1137517;1431996038;justJanne;and less welfare.
1137518;1431996050;danielpbarron;i don't think anyone here is taking the side that the U.S. is a good example of how things should be
1137519;1431996068;justJanne;It's not a childish fantasy of it's the currently best working system.
1137520;1431996078;justJanne;If you want total anarchy, go to somalia, they live it.
1137521;1431996113;BingoBoingo;Nah, go to Ferguson. They have community solidarity!!!
1137522;1431996114;danielpbarron;it's a population that is still only a couple generations off from having the crap kicked out of it
1137523;1431996119;justJanne;And if you break your leg and can't work for a month, you starve to death.
1137524;1431996120;mats;jurov: you addressing me there with the quote?
1137525;1431996134;jurov;mats, yes
1137526;1431996150;danielpbarron;justJanne, I'm all for keeping people alive that would have otherwise starved to death. They just gotta be humbled by the experience; they aren't entitled to the help.
1137527;1431996173;justJanne;They are.
1137528;1431996182;justJanne;Because they played before 59% taxes for others.
1137529;1431996192;justJanne;*50%
1137530;1431996199;mats;jurov: i don't follow. so, because rent is high, folks should get a min wage/basic income
1137531;1431996237;jurov;no mats. i'm saying you're going to be separated from your money either way
1137532;1431996246;danielpbarron;justJanne, the point being, there are more solutions besides "let starve to death" and "steal from everyone to keep them alive"
1137533;1431996247;jurov;so it does not make sense to argue either way
1137534;1431996262;justJanne;danielpbarron: it's not stealing.
1137535;1431996279;justJanne;If you want, you can move to Togo, or Monsanto City, or the Bahamas.
1137536;1431996300;justJanne;And, as you stated, you deserve to be punished for being born here.
1137537;1431996305;mats;it does matter, because govt involvement destroys price efficiency
1137538;1431996336;justJanne;Not really true, either.
1137539;1431996346;justJanne;It is often true,
1137540;1431996347;mats;cost of living being high or wutever is immaterial, i think.
1137541;1431996350;justJanne;But not necessary.
1137542;1431996364;jurov;mats, you're not the first nor last fantsaizing of system without "govt involvement"
1137543;1431996378;justJanne;Reminds me of Deutsche Bahn. A large railway company. Everything was fine, perfectly on time, cheap, profitable.
1137544;1431996381;jurov;somehow, nothign came out of that
1137545;1431996390;BingoBoingo;Eh, Monsanto's no so bad. The only problem with glyphosate is it doesn't always kill plants dead enough.
1137546;1431996396;justJanne;Then they went to stock market and became a private company.
1137547;1431996418;justJanne;Now Deutsche Bahn is slow, never on time, expensive, and not much more profitable either.
1137548;1431996482;justJanne;Every. Single. Time. A governmentally owned institution got sold to a US investor they either closed down 2 days later, became shit, or just expensive.
1137549;1431996492;justJanne;Every. Time.
1137550;1431996505;mats;i recommend a stint as a govt employee
1137551;1431996507;jurov;justJanne: it was govt involvement, dotcha know? :DDDD
1137552;1431996524;danielpbarron;i think the key words in that story are "US investor"
1137553;1431996543;justJanne;I don't care if the government owns the trains, as long as they are 100% on time, cheap, and fast.
1137554;1431996585;danielpbarron;even if they are sometimes used to haul off political dissidents?
1137555;1431996607;justJanne;That is not a part of the discussion.
1137556;1431996640;jurov;lol, as if private enterprises never hauled political dissidents
1137557;1431996642;justJanne;If the government rents a train for that (like Hitler did, the companies profited heavily) or if they own them (like the GDR did), changes nothing.
1137558;1431996697;justJanne;But a governmental monopoly is always better than a private monopoly.
1137559;1431996744;jurov;that's very bad statement
1137560;1431996755;justJanne;Not really.
1137561;1431996760;danielpbarron;that can't be true, and only appears to be because you use the united states as your example of the alternative
1137562;1431996762;jurov;i have personal memories of govt monopolies in czechoslovakia
1137563;1431996787;justJanne;And? Were they replaced by private competition or a private monopoly?
1137564;1431996821;jurov;depends, some. but the is not the problem
1137565;1431996832;justJanne;Assuming no corruption,
1137566;1431996861;jurov;when everything is govt monopoly people who need autonomy, mastery and purpose suffer badly
1137567;1431996862;justJanne;The private monopoly will have an incentive to provide the worst service possible, at the highest possible price.
1137568;1431996877;justJanne;Yes.
1137569;1431996898;justJanne;Most of the things need to be a competition, others need to be nonprofit monopolies.
1137570;1431996920;danielpbarron;what's so bad about "the worst service possible" anyway ?
1137571;1431996921;justJanne;Like the railway tracks, those can be nonprofit monopolies, while dozens of rail operators can rent them.
1137572;1431996930;justJanne;danielpbarron: because that's shit?
1137573;1431996955;justJanne;You want trains that operate every 20 minutes, at 240km/h, for 19€ across Europe,
1137574;1431996957;danielpbarron;no, your totalitiarian government that forces me to raise my kids the normal way is what's bad
1137575;1431996963;justJanne;Not shitty stuff.
1137576;1431996984;justJanne;danielpbarron: you aren't forced to. You can also raise your children at home, ofc.
1137577;1431996987;justJanne;At full pay.
1137578;1431996991;mike_c; <+justJanne> Assuming no corruption, << this is where we enter star trek land?
1137579;1431997008;justJanne;mike_c: kinda. But corruption makes discussion always useless.
1137580;1431997014;mike_c;exactly
1137581;1431997027;justJanne;Especially as the amount of corruption is very different on where you are, and when.
1137582;1431997111;justJanne;But again, the idea of the Nordic model is huge personal freedom, at the same time a stable society that provides a great basis for everyone.
1137583;1431997129;justJanne;And the personal freedom in the Nordic model is larger than in the US.
1137584;1431997145;justJanne;Yes, somalia has more personal freedom, but again, try living there.
1137585;1431997151;danielpbarron;you keep comparing your thing to the US
1137586;1431997173;justJanne;Because the US is a reference point as worst case civilized country.
1137587;1431997199;danielpbarron;shouldn't you compare your thing to my thing? (the thing i'm proposing)
1137588;1431997211;justJanne;So, perfect free anarchy?
1137589;1431997219;justJanne;Can you provide a real life example?
1137590;1431997220;danielpbarron;The Most Serene Republic
1137591;1431997236;danielpbarron;this channel is the example
1137592;1431997239;justJanne;We don't accept fictional systems here, only ones that exist in reality.
1137593;1431997247;justJanne;For this discussion.
1137594;1431997263;danielpbarron;that's rich coming from a trekkie
1137595;1431997266;justJanne;As everyone can claim their model would work.

1137598;1431997322;danielpbarron;justJanne, your model works for as long as there is fiat money to manipulate
1137599;1431997330;danielpbarron;which isn't for very much longer
1137600;1431997331;justJanne;Not necessarily.
1137601;1431997343;justJanne;The Nordic model works without currency.
1137602;1431997362;justJanne;And, tbh, here no one cares about bitcoin.
1137603;1431997362;danielpbarron;but does it work with bitcoin?
1137604;1431997376;justJanne;Too high transfer fees, too slow transfers.
1137605;1431997379;danielpbarron;that's ok, bitcoin doesn't care about them either
1137606;1431997414;justJanne;But yeah, it would work with bitcoin.
1137607;1431997430;danielpbarron;but you can't get your 50% from me..
1137608;1431997440;justJanne;Why not?
1137609;1431997446;danielpbarron;what is there to take?
1137610;1431997452;justJanne;Your employer has to send that money to the govt.
1137611;1431997452;danielpbarron;nobody owns any bitcoin
1137612;1431997458;justJanne;You never see the 50%
1137613;1431997470;danielpbarron;suppose my employer doesn't
1137614;1431997482;danielpbarron;because my employer doesn't have a physical basis of operations
1137615;1431997502;justJanne;Then you will have to pay them.

1137617;1431997514;danielpbarron;pay them what?

1137977;1432022118;justJanne;You should read the treaty.
1137978;1432022124;williamdunne;I should, I'll do that later
1137979;1432022133;williamdunne;Although in this case I like subsidies, I change my mind
1137980;1432022135;trinque;what I do want is other people signing contracts on my behalf.
1137981;1432022146;trinque;dictating terms to me
1137982;1432022148;trinque;this is freedom
1137983;1432022150;justJanne;Nah.
1137984;1432022153;trinque;yes.
1137985;1432022155;williamdunne;^ +1, trinque you want my GPG key?
1137986;1432022158;trinque;you're too young to have ever had anything
1137987;1432022161;justJanne;Freedom is when you'd get to vote on it.
1137988;1432022166;williamdunne;Wut?
1137989;1432022167;trinque;williamdunne: for what
1137990;1432022174;williamdunne;trinque: Signing contracts on my behalf
1137991;1432022177;ben_vulpes;i'm looking forward to ttip draining medicaid for hilaribad training proggys
1137992;1432022183;trinque;williamdunne: oh, I do not
1137993;1432022185;justJanne;Without even the ability to vote on this, TTIP is unconstitutional.
1137994;1432022198;williamdunne;Voting ain't freedom
1137995;1432022203;justJanne;Nah.
1137996;1432022211;justJanne;But without voting there is 0 freedom.
1137997;1432022221;ben_vulpes;kakobrekla: how long do i have to wait for assbot to accept and act on my raitings?
1137998;1432022222;williamdunne;Voting arguably reduces freedom
1137999;1432022227;justJanne;Voting makes it 50% freedom, as at least 50% of the people gets their choice.
1138000;1432022237;ben_vulpes;ratings*
1138001;1432022238;justJanne;Without voting, there is 0 freedom
1138002;1432022246;trinque;justJanne: 435/320mil are going to rubber stamp this thing and make me ok with it?
1138003;1432022249;williamdunne;In that case with voting there is -1 freedom
1138004;1432022261;williamdunne;It gives the idea of legitimacy to bad things
1138005;1432022262;justJanne;Why?
1138006;1432022279;williamdunne;If that is freedom, so is gangrape
1138007;1432022280;justJanne;Not everything is bad, just because you don't like it.
1138008;1432022293;williamdunne;Subjectively it is
1138009;1432022299;ben_vulpes;but the average of opinions is good, because it includes everyone!1
1138010;1432022301;cazalla;russians need to send more reds to rape german women tbh, fuck this shit
1138011;1432022304;justJanne;But objectively not.
1138012;1432022322;williamdunne;Objectively speaking stealing from people is bad
1138013;1432022334;williamdunne;The fact that there is an organization doing it on your behalf makes it no better
1138014;1432022338;justJanne;There is no stealing.
1138015;1432022342;williamdunne;Regardless if you've got your popular mandate
1138016;1432022346;williamdunne;*of if
1138017;1432022346;justJanne;You do it voluntarily.
1138018;1432022349;ben_vulpes; Objectively speaking stealing from people is bad << nope, stealing from my enemies is grand.
1138019;1432022353;trinque;justJanne: there is allowing the state to control the definition of money and of ownership.
1138020;1432022355;trinque;the fucking end
1138021;1432022361;justJanne;You could just move to Somalia.
1138022;1432022365;justJanne;No taxes anymore.
1138023;1432022366;justJanne;See?
1138024;1432022369;justJanne;No stealing.
1138025;1432022372;williamdunne;Thats not how this works
1138026;1432022379;justJanne;It's your choice to live in a place with taxes.
1138027;1432022388;williamdunne;No it isn't, I was born here
1138028;1432022395;justJanne;We had that earlier.
1138029;1432022411;ben_vulpes;lol and this is a 19yo girl
1138030;1432022413;justJanne;And you said people deserve to be punished for the actions for their ancestors.
1138031;1432022421;williamdunne;When did I say this?
1138032;1432022431;justJanne;In this case, you deserve to be taxed because your parents were to stupid to move away
1138033;1432022439;trinque;heh
1138034;1432022451;ben_vulpes;and you deserve to be raped for supporting socialism then?
1138035;1432022451;williamdunne;[citation needed]
1138036;1432022453;justJanne;I think trinque was the one saying it?
1138037;1432022468;cazalla;justJanne, hope you get raped by a gang of marauding muslims over there
1138038;1432022468;trinque;I'll take it
1138039;1432022488;williamdunne;Trinque's statements aren't my own, this isn't a government
1138040;1432022509;trinque;yep
1138041;1432022517;justJanne;So, williamdunne, you say people don't deserve to be punished for the actions of their ancestors?
1138042;1432022524;williamdunne;Yes
1138043;1432022528;justJanne;So everyone should, after birth, have the same chances?
1138044;1432022530;ben_vulpes; mats: DS9-Star Trek is pretty much real. << aha she thinks scifi's real
1138045;1432022531;williamdunne;No
1138046;1432022539;justJanne;Why not?
1138047;1432022540;williamdunne;Something can be without being enacted
1138048;1432022551;williamdunne;The difference is the initiation
1138049;1432022555;justJanne;Why should they be punished for their parents poorness?
1138050;1432022557;trinque;justJanne: you use should to leap across things you don't want to have to think about.
1138051;1432022558;ben_vulpes; Why not?  << needs some context
1138052;1432022565;trinque;this is nothing bad, just being young and not knowing anything
1138053;1432022566;mircea_popescu;!up referredbyloper
1138054;1432022566;williamdunne;They aren't being punished, they simply are
1138055;1432022584;justJanne;Punishment through inaction is still punishment.
1138056;1432022588;williamdunne;No, it isn't
1138057;1432022598;trinque;you know, if socialists are happy in socialism, why isn't that fine?
1138058;1432022609;trinque;I say sit in it
1138059;1432022618;williamdunne;Because they enforce it on others, if they want to create a commune go for it
1138060;1432022619;ben_vulpes;rot in your poo!
1138061;1432022620;justJanne;I don't know. I have no issues with you guys building a state of anarchy,
1138062;1432022629;trinque;anarchy lol
1138063;1432022633;justJanne;As long as this place can stay the way it is.
1138064;1432022645;williamdunne;You don't really get a choice in what happens
1138065;1432022646;ben_vulpes;and how would you know how this place is, justJanne
1138066;1432022649;mircea_popescu; Currently the food production of the world could support 10 billion people. << that's not the point. sure, food could be produced to feed 10, 100, one trillion. does not mean anyone wants more idiots running around. too many as it is.
1138067;1432022666;justJanne;trinque: you guys said you wanted a place where "no man rules over other men", no taxes, no government, no controls, no streets.
1138068;1432022671;justJanne;That's pretty much anarchy.
1138069;1432022676;trinque;no one speaks for me
1138070;1432022679;mircea_popescu;who said this and where did they say it ?
1138071;1432022694;justJanne;williamdunne said it, for example.
1138072;1432022697;ben_vulpes; trinque: you guys said you wanted a place where "no man rules over other men", no taxes, no government, no controls, no streets. << source or seriously get the fuck out
1138073;1432022701;justJanne;Several others said the same before.
1138074;1432022706;ben_vulpes;williamdunne does not count.
1138075;1432022708;trinque;scam
1138076;1432022713;trinque;ben_vulpes: provacateur!
1138077;1432022717;williamdunne;Once again, my opinions are my own
1138078;1432022725;williamdunne;Something I have said does not apply to others here
1138079;1432022726;mircea_popescu;justJanne you will have to learn to cite.
1138080;1432022726;justJanne;williamdunne Don't want taxes
1138081;1432022728;williamdunne;And I am not a lord
1138082;1432022737;justJanne;williamdunne Don't want gov
1138083;1432022745;ben_vulpes; williamdunne Don't want taxes << so what and whatever
1138084;1432022753;ben_vulpes;kid doesn't matter
1138085;1432022756;mircea_popescu;not merely because to prevail in arguments, but because a mind that's organised without strong sourcing of propositions is windows in a skullbox.
1138086;1432022756;williamdunne;justJanne: Once again, you're quoting me
1138087;1432022765;ben_vulpes;can't keep an irc bot up
1138088;1432022771;justJanne;Yes, and I'm arguing with you.
1138089;1432022773;mircea_popescu;aww why so mean!
1138090;1432022786;williamdunne;On that note, scoop will be back later today
1138091;1432022793;williamdunne;for good this time
1138092;1432022796;williamdunne;I swearsies
1138093;1432022797;mircea_popescu;good.
1138094;1432022799;justJanne;If the others want to join the argument, they have to also measure themselves to your statements.
1138095;1432022810;mircea_popescu;not how this works justJanne
1138096;1432022818;williamdunne;Read the logs
1138097;1432022822;williamdunne;Their positions are all in there
1138098;1432022830;ben_vulpes;williamdunne: better to demonstrate than postulate.
1138099;1432022840;williamdunne;justJanne: You're joining the argument, not the other way around
1138100;1432022847;justJanne;No.
1138101;1432022855;justJanne;I made yesterday some statements,
1138102;1432022864;justJanne;That were picked out of context and attacked today.
1138103;1432022874;williamdunne;What meanies
1138104;1432022874;trinque;people review the logs and respond; get used to it
1138105;1432022875;justJanne;By people saying they want no subsidies, but TTIP
1138106;1432022884;mircea_popescu;they were taken out of the context you intended them in and placed in the wider context prevailing here.
1138107;1432022895;mircea_popescu;this gives you an opportunity to explain yourself, or to go nuts i guess.
1138108;1432022906;justJanne;I didn't go nuts yet.
1138109;1432022916;mircea_popescu;not yet, no :)
1138110;1432022922;mircea_popescu;incidentally, anyone ever tried nut-aged cheese ?
1138111;1432022940;justJanne;I wonder how you guys actually think your social system will work in reality.
1138112;1432022949;mircea_popescu;ever read anythng on the topic ?
1138113;1432022970;justJanne;Yeah, a friend of mine was an extreme anarchist.
1138114;1432022979;justJanne;So I read and learned a lot about it.
1138115;1432022981;mircea_popescu;woman. your derpy friends are immaterial.
1138116;1432023002;justJanne;Interesting idea, unless it is implemented, within of a dozen generations it often stops working.
1138117;1432023005;mircea_popescu;i've known a bunch of german sluts, i don't go around assuming you're one, right ?
1138118;1432023016;justJanne;Nah.
1138119;1432023024;williamdunne;justJanne: What is implemented? WoT is alive and well
1138120;1432023028;justJanne;But we talked through your topic a bunch of times.
1138121;1432023036;mircea_popescu;yeah i guess time for a reading list.
1138122;1432023049;justJanne;williamdunne: when you'd try to implement this system in reality, as a social system.
1138123;1432023057;williamdunne;We're being social now
1138124;1432023059;mircea_popescu;justJanne http://trilema.com/2012/gpg-contracts/ << start there.
1138125;1432023119;williamdunne;It is implemented in reality
1138126;1432023119;ben_vulpes;this is why we must insist on the log-reading, regardless of how cute or female.
1138127;1432023119;justJanne;Especially the "let poor people become poorer" and the "rich become richer" part.
1138128;1432023119;ben_vulpes;neither of which etc etc
1138129;1432023119;williamdunne;Wut?
1138130;1432023119;mircea_popescu;ben_vulpes also must give people rope to hang with, it's a tandem process.
1138131;1432023119;ben_vulpes;NO

1138147;1432023188;mircea_popescu;about something else masquerading as it.
1138148;1432023190;justJanne;And it made me even more convinced it is a great system in theory. Not in reality.
1138149;1432023202;justJanne;No, literally your ideas and statements.

1138155;1432023232;williamdunne;justJanne: No, you haven't
1138156;1432023236;justJanne;Because I still don't believe it is a good idea.

1138158;1432023247;mircea_popescu;no, not because of what you believe. because of how you proceed.
1138159;1432023254;justJanne;One can have an opinion different of yours.
1138160;1432023257;williamdunne;No shit
1138161;1432023265;mircea_popescu;actually everyone does, is the amusing thing.

1138163;1432023287;justJanne;Someone yesterday asked what's so bad about abolishing the Nordic model.

1138187;1432023554;mircea_popescu;nah, latinos mostly do c style work (figure out the least you can get away with and do less htan that).
1138188;1432023558;BingoBoingo;mircea_popescu: But it's all calories!
1138189;1432023562;mircea_popescu;justJanne they especially.
1138190;1432023572;justJanne;And volunteer garbage workers?
1138191;1432023584;justJanne;They too?
1138192;1432023587;mircea_popescu;you have any idea what bdsm is ?
1138193;1432023587;trinque;justJanne: you cannot begin to imagine the bore of a planned out life for a male... good fucking god
1138194;1432023596;trinque;seems like it sounds fantastic to you
1138195;1432023598;mircea_popescu;lots of pedos volunteer to be teachers. is scarcely a proof your system works.
1138196;1432023598;davout;justJanne: i don't know lol, you were talking about firemen, guess they're bored or something, but then again, you don't only see volunteer librarians in societies that "work well"
1138197;1432023610;trinque;everyone has their place!
1138198;1432023623;williamdunne;Some in the gutter..
1138199;1432023629;justJanne;True. But it shows that people have the will and ability to do good without pay.
1138200;1432023631;mircea_popescu;trinque you think it's a gender issue ? i dun think she's old enough yet.
1138201;1432023645;davout;justJanne: just because you don't see what folks get out of a deal doesn't mean they're not getting anything
1138202;1432023647;mircea_popescu;justJanne if it's not worth paying for it wasn't that good in the first place.
1138203;1432023656;mircea_popescu;& what d said.
1138204;1432023657;gribble;Error: "what" is not a valid command.
1138205;1432023661;BingoBoingo; davout: and what about volunteer librarians? They too? << I am a librarian. Volunteering without compensation is a violation of my professional ethics.
1138206;1432023674;williamdunne;Interesting, didn't realise ampersand was a gribble thing
1138207;1432023686;davout;BingoBoingo: don't you get to steal a TP roll a day already?
1138208;1432023687;trinque;mircea_popescu: could just as well be something taught to everyone, that risk is terrible and to be avoided
1138209;1432023688;justJanne;BingoBoingo: then you'd have a hard time here, 90% of all librarians are volunteers.
1138210;1432023692;mircea_popescu;gribble's a control sequence slut. CSS
1138211;1432023702;mircea_popescu;trinque and yet she is here.
1138212;1432023730;davout;justJanne: you underestimate the percentage of people that would do anything to merely get some social interaction, aka feel lonely
1138213;1432023749;mircea_popescu;ESPECIALLY in societies that "Work well" by old woman standards.
1138214;1432023750;BingoBoingo;justJanne: Seeing as the library profession here requires a graduate degree it wouldn't be sustainable here.
1138215;1432023757;mircea_popescu;such as "northern countries" w/e that may mean.
1138216;1432023787;justJanne;That's no issue, davout. Such immaterial payments are just what I originally meant.
1138217;1432023789;trinque;so they're all already smashed into obedience, and were born there
1138218;1432023796;mircea_popescu;amusingly, the only place where that model is actually sustainable is... israel.
1138219;1432023798;trinque;so yeah the cell's fine whatever, sun's shining out there today
1138220;1432023812;mircea_popescu;where the old woman doctrine has the nice counterpart of the freely provided fun stuff to do by the palestinians.
1138221;1432023824;mircea_popescu;if those schmucks had any idea about their important place in keeping adlai happy...
1138222;1432023845;mircea_popescu;justJanne do you read french ?
1138223;1432023863;justJanne;Not really, I didn't take it as 3rd or 4th language in school
1138224;1432023875;mircea_popescu;a, that's a pity.
1138225;1432023876;davout;http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=19-05-2015#1137366 <<< top kek

1138227;1432023895;mircea_popescu;i lol'd too >D
1138228;1432023911;davout;srsly, catching up with log, you guys have been going for like 8 hours now?
1138229;1432023918;mircea_popescu;she's insatiable.
1138230;1432023925;davout;haha
1138231;1432023933;mircea_popescu;we're reduced to taking turns and losing sleep.
1138232;1432023939;justJanne;I have no issue explaining people why removing the Nordic model would be bad.
1138233;1432023941;mircea_popescu;which is thefundamental problem with manhood.
1138234;1432023951;justJanne;I've slept 3h and skipped 2 lectures -.-
1138235;1432023975;mircea_popescu;justJanne so far you've not considered the part where it is already collapsing on its own, bnecause it doesn't work, because it's strictly based on getting lucky.
1138236;1432023977;mircea_popescu;VERY lucky.
1138237;1432023979;BingoBoingo;No wonder the Greeks are taking over the EU's jools
1138238;1432024006;justJanne;True.
1138239;1432024016;mircea_popescu;well, you need a system that works without assumptions.
1138240;1432024031;justJanne;Germany can only have a positive state household by exploiting southern Europe.
1138241;1432024036;justJanne;Which is not a good thing.
1138242;1432024037;mircea_popescu;sure, if you get a shitton of oil when oil's valuable / fish when fish is valuable etc, the "nordic model" is a great way to share it.
1138243;1432024041;mircea_popescu;what do you do when you don't ?
1138244;1432024042;williamdunne;I'm impressed with how quick shes climbing the stats
1138245;1432024044;justJanne;So, like you said, we need to reduce it.
1138246;1432024064;williamdunne;mircea_popescu: Share the dead bodies
1138247;1432024088;mircea_popescu;williamdunne people generally don't wish to accept that nazism was absolutely unavoidable, FOR THIS REASON
1138248;1432024097;justJanne;mircea_popescu: the Nordic model is possible without any valuable resources.
1138249;1432024106;justJanne;As seen in places like Switzerland.
1138250;1432024106;mircea_popescu;purely economic. as hitler actually pointed out : we don't have enough land to exploit. either we fight or "the way of life" has to change.
1138251;1432024117;justJanne;And the solution for that was:
1138252;1432024119;mircea_popescu;justJanne are you kidding ? switzerland is exploiting a resource
1138253;1432024122;justJanne;High tech industry.
1138254;1432024129;williamdunne;mircea_popescu when you're willing to accept that theft is okay, how many more steps is murder? Europe and the US already murders vast quantities of people in Africa
1138255;1432024133;mircea_popescu;banking, mostly. but the us raped them.
1138256;1432024147;justJanne;True.
1138257;1432024153;mircea_popescu;williamdunne "murder". in the immortal words of butch, "if he were a better boxer he'd still be alive"
1138258;1432024175;justJanne;I'll brb
1138259;1432024192;mircea_popescu;justJanne don't die over b-a hon. it's eternal, will be here when you're 69, too.
1138260;1432024208;williamdunne;mircea_popescu: I largely agree, Africa doesn't have much going for it but I do think it stands a chance of doing a helluva lot better without various EU/US laws.
1138261;1432024252;mircea_popescu;williamdunne one of the most amusing things, to me, is that the entire "black domination" subtrend in porn is driven almost entirely by white men.
1138262;1432024269;mircea_popescu;it's like... we're so far ahead of the curve, we will PRETEND to be playing all others' hands, too. because... w/e.
1138263;1432024269;williamdunne;cuckold too
1138264;1432024295;mircea_popescu;certainly.
1138265;1432024341;williamdunne;But do you not think that without various shitty laws preventing any African from doing something other than eating dirt?
1138266;1432024352;williamdunne;i.e AML bullshit, trade sanctions/restrictions etc
1138267;1432024362;mircea_popescu;you vastly overrepresent their reach.
1138268;1432024381;mircea_popescu;pretty much everyone in the civilised world (us and eu excluded) lives fine without ever touching those.
1138269;1432024416;williamdunne;Sure, but they put someone without money at a disadvantage
1138270;1432024439;williamdunne;*further
1138271;1432024467;mircea_popescu;but anyway, to round off the "social marketplace" thing : if one is to reclassify slave labour as "voluntaryism", which is undoubtedly erroneous but nevertheless coherent with the presupositions proposed, then sure, i am a champion of "the northern model"
1138272;1432024489;williamdunne;Don't think we all should be equal in fairyland but creating additional barriers is about the equivalent of kicking a man while he is down
1138273;1432024496;mircea_popescu;williamdunne someone without money has the disadvantage of not what to spend and the advantage of not having what to protect.
1138274;1432024565;williamdunne;Ofc
1138275;1432024587;mircea_popescu;you ever play cards ?
1138276;1432024616;williamdunne;Only in the drunken manner, not the competitive
1138277;1432024653;mircea_popescu;mkay. so take poker. a very simple description of poker is that you can either play hooker or bluffer. to play hooker you need card superiority, and try to trick your opponent into paying.
1138278;1432024665;mircea_popescu;to play bluffer you nbeed card inferiority, and try to trick your opponent into folding.
1138279;1432024692;mircea_popescu;now, if one's afore-decided they will be bluffing, a) they won't make very good poker players and b) any hand they get can "put them at a disadvantage".
1138280;1432024700;mircea_popescu;because it's not what they expected / wish to play / etc.
1138281;1432024715;mircea_popescu;why should this matter ? play the fucking hand. you adjust to fit it, not the other way around.
1138282;1432024766;assbot;[MPEX] [S.MPOE] 81200 @ 0.00028126 = 22.8383 BTC [-] {2} 
1138283;1432024809;williamdunne;In this case its more like the bluffer having to play with a different set of superiority rules
1138284;1432024831;mircea_popescu;how would that work ? does being rich change thermodynamics or something ?
1138285;1432024840;mircea_popescu;rich man's bridge will collapse just like poor man's bridge will.
1138286;1432024873;mircea_popescu;but yes, the set of rules that control the game are different for hookers and bluffers. for hookers, the rules that control are "A > K > Q" etc.
1138287;1432024884;mircea_popescu;for bluffers, "you don't get to see my cards if you fold"
1138288;1432024889;mircea_popescu;so yes, different. necessarily so.
1138289;1432024904;williamdunne;Sure, but I don't think it's a very controversial idea that various rules such as the AML set put entire regions of people at a disadvantage
1138290;1432024916;mircea_popescu;depends in what terms.
1138291;1432024921;williamdunne;Well
1138292;1432024933;mircea_popescu;obviously, if you refuse to trade with putin, this puts "putin as seen through our trade with him" at a disadvantage.
1138293;1432024948;mircea_popescu;but then putin turns around, alligns with china economically in exchange for support for his "regions of eurasia" political model
1138294;1432024951;mircea_popescu;and you're well fucked.
1138295;1432024958;williamdunne;If I want to start a business in the UK, I can pretty easily sell my product wherever the fuck I want. Banks are willing to work with me, that will be fine. If I was from random-istan not so much
1138296;1432024971;mircea_popescu;or, alternatively, you discontinue support for israel and so the saudis no longer have what to fear so they dump your alliance.
1138297;1432024978;mircea_popescu;no, you can't.
1138298;1432024979;mircea_popescu;try this.
1138299;1432024993;mircea_popescu;you can't sell in randomistan anymore than randomistan can sell in the uk.
1138300;1432025004;williamdunne;Well, various African shitholes don't help themselves and won't allow foreigners to open accounts
1138301;1432025008;williamdunne;But this is their own fault
1138302;1432025012;mircea_popescu;...
1138303;1432025020;mircea_popescu;but you see how this is entirely you calling things names ?
1138304;1432025024;williamdunne;mircea_popescu: Well yes, thats what I'm talking about but the reverse
1138305;1432025024;mircea_popescu;from their pov it's backwards.
1138306;1432025046;mircea_popescu;"oh, that's because uk shithole won't help itself and won't allow foreigners to whatever"
1138307;1432025066;mircea_popescu;why do you think the empire's been going to shit for a century ?
1138308;1432025069;williamdunne;Okay I see what you mean, but the UK needs it less
1138309;1432025078;mircea_popescu;africa at least is more or less where it was in 1880.
1138310;1432025087;mircea_popescu;the uk... god help it. no country in memory sunk as bad as they have.
1138311;1432025095;mircea_popescu;germany's pretty much recovered, the uk will never recover.
1138312;1432025130;williamdunne;Probably, then again we are largely responsible for modern socialism, so what do you expect?
1138313;1432025141;williamdunne;London subsidises the rest of the country anyway
1138314;1432025143;mircea_popescu;i dun expect, just putting things in perspective :)
1138315;1432025161;williamdunne;Well, that was more directed at an onlooker
1138316;1432025163;williamdunne;rather than you
1138317;1432025164;williamdunne;But yeah
1138318;1432025166;mircea_popescu;yeah they do, lmao, which is outright ridiculous. all good things are supposed to flow TO the city, not from it.
1138319;1432025177;mircea_popescu;and even WITH all that huge expenditure, scotland wants more and nearly seceded.
1138320;1432025199;mircea_popescu;which was one of the lulziest things i saw that year.
1138321;1432025202;williamdunne;Precisely, I've been ranting far too often recently about how London should tell the rest of the UK to fuck off
1138322;1432025204;williamdunne;Yes
1138323;1432025207;williamdunne;I hoped they would do it
1138324;1432025221;williamdunne;Remove one of the parasites
1138325;1432025225;mircea_popescu;well, it can't. because the one remaining hanging nail on the historical uk is the coupla nuke subs the us allows them to keep
1138326;1432025228;mircea_popescu;and they're in glasgow.
1138327;1432025229;mircea_popescu;so..
1138328;1432025234;mircea_popescu;just pay the dizzy sluts more :D
1138329;1432025258;mircea_popescu;which you know... scotland's going to oh so judiciously use
1138330;1432025260;williamdunne;I would imagine that they'd be moved to Plymouth or Bristol or summin
1138331;1432025271;mircea_popescu;btw, you familiar with the hilarious history of the scottish new world settlement thing ?
1138332;1432025281;williamdunne;Nope, shall I have a google?
1138333;1432025286;mircea_popescu;by all means.
1138334;1432025289;mircea_popescu;top keks in there.
1138335;1432025305;mircea_popescu;"darien scheme"
1138336;1432025489;justJanne;Meh.
1138337;1432025495;justJanne;I hope the UK leaves the EU.
1138338;1432025504;justJanne;It would finally kill their economy
1138339;1432025535;mircea_popescu;if they leave the eu they join the us.
1138340;1432025541;justJanne;As their economy right now is "European companies open an Ltd in London"
1138341;1432025550;williamdunne;"Returning to Edinburgh, the Company of Scotland for Trading to Africa raised £400,000 sterling in a few weeks (equivalent to roughly £46 million today),[b] with investments from every level of society, and totaling about a fifth of the wealth of Scotland.[7][8] It was, for Scotland, a massive amount of capital.[9]"
1138342;1432025554;mircea_popescu;uk as an independent state is about as ludicrous today as the kingdom of scotland was in 1715
1138343;1432025559;williamdunne;justJanne: London actually matters
1138344;1432025566;williamdunne;justJanne: Rest of the UK... not so much
1138345;1432025574;justJanne;That's noticeable.
1138346;1432025582;williamdunne;But it likely won't matter nearly as much outside of EU
1138347;1432025586;mircea_popescu;only matters because it's a relative tax heaven from the patently insane french (and german) communists.
1138348;1432025588;mircea_popescu;50% my foot.
1138349;1432025589;justJanne;Outside of London, the average waiting time for an ambulance is 4 hours.
1138350;1432025599;justJanne;Exactly.
1138351;1432025612;williamdunne;Currently if you set up a financial company in the EU, the standard procedure is London
1138352;1432025614;justJanne;Wait until the UK leaves, and their tax-haven-economy breaks down.
1138353;1432025624;mircea_popescu;justJanne you know i pay 3% in romania.
1138354;1432025630;mircea_popescu;also eu member.
1138355;1432025633;justJanne;Yes.
1138356;1432025634;justJanne;See?
1138357;1432025642;mircea_popescu;there is NEVER going to be a way for the bs taxation of socialists to be enforced. ever.
1138358;1432025644;justJanne;The tax haven will move to Romania, or Liechtenstein.
1138359;1432025653;justJanne;But London will be piss poor.
1138360;1432025655;williamdunne;mircea_popescu: Wrote another article about that the other day, not too good though
1138361;1432025663;williamdunne;justJanne: Yes, I agree if it leaves the EU
1138362;1432025668;williamdunne;Gibraltar might be good
1138363;1432025677;williamdunne;I could imagine a fair amount moving there
1138364;1432025691;justJanne;Gibraltar is UK, would also leave.
1138365;1432025691;mircea_popescu;might just as well move here.
1138366;1432025706;justJanne;I hope the UK leaves the EU.
1138367;1432025711;mircea_popescu;b,tmsro~ only charges 0.1% after all.
1138368;1432025714;justJanne;So the Brits see the shit Cameron is doing.
1138369;1432025732;williamdunne;justJanne: It could probably work its way in there either way, IoM for example is not EU dependent
1138370;1432025759;williamdunne;justJanne: We can choose between Cameron or Labour, at least Cameron doesn't want to remove our main advantage.. being a tax haven
1138371;1432025780;justJanne;Yup. FPTP sucks.
1138372;1432025790;williamdunne;Proportional representation sucks worse
1138373;1432025795;williamdunne;Thats how you get communists
1138374;1432025798;justJanne;And?
1138375;1432025812;justJanne;You also get right-wingers,
1138376;1432025815;williamdunne;And I like the current availability of toilet paper
1138377;1432025817;justJanne;Liberals, and communists.
1138378;1432025821;justJanne;At the same time.
1138379;1432025833;williamdunne;My hand might be as soft as loo roll, but its not too hygienic
1138380;1432025834;justJanne;At least parliament debates are fun with all of them at once.
1138381;1432025855;mircea_popescu;lol
1138382;1432025858;mircea_popescu;she has a point there.
1138383;1432025865;mircea_popescu;that's how the shoe incidents happen
1138384;1432025866;williamdunne;Indeed
1138385;1432025871;williamdunne;lol
1138386;1432025914;justJanne;And more democratic, cause the government won't risk ignoring the 7% people who voted liberals, nor the 7% who voted communist, as if they'd ignore them, those parties would just start a fight in Parliament.
1138387;1432025917;williamdunne;The problem is the UK is mostly shit, as we have discussed. And the shit areas would be far more likely to vote Communist

1138389;1432025927;williamdunne;justJanne: Ignoring is the right action
1138390;1432025937;justJanne;Nah.
1138391;1432025941;mircea_popescu;depends which %.
1138392;1432025947;justJanne;Let liberals and communists fight in parliament.
1138393;1432025950;mircea_popescu;99% of the 1%s you can ignore. the other 1%...
1138394;1432025962;justJanne;The winner of the box fight gets to make a paw.
1138395;1432025963;justJanne;*law
1138396;1432025975;trinque;so you get an incomprehensible society
1138397;1432025987;mircea_popescu;justJanne that there is an apparent need for new laws already invalidates the entire proposition of having a state in the first place.
1138398;1432025997;mircea_popescu;either come up with a contract and stick to it, or go home.
1138399;1432026008;justJanne;mircea_popescu: not really — most of the laws are adapting existing situations.
1138400;1432026010;mircea_popescu;im not going for these ARM bankruptcy mortgage deals.
1138401;1432026011;mircea_popescu;no.
1138402;1432026021;justJanne;Yes?
1138403;1432026023;mircea_popescu;either you have the whole contract written down, or i'm not signing.
1138404;1432026028;mircea_popescu;and you don't get to have a state.
1138405;1432026050;mircea_popescu;no parliament has the authority to make new law. ever.
1138406;1432026054;justJanne;Again, if you want, you can move out.
1138407;1432026060;mircea_popescu;no, you move out.
1138408;1432026073;justJanne;Unless the majority is for a law.
1138409;1432026074;williamdunne;If you don't move out of Germany I will rape you
1138410;1432026080;mircea_popescu;i don't care if it's unanimity.
1138411;1432026086;mircea_popescu;you're taking your stupid shit to somewhere not near me.
1138412;1432026089;justJanne;Then the minority can decide if they want to move out or accept it.
1138413;1432026093;mircea_popescu;mnope.
1138414;1432026100;mircea_popescu;the majority can make sense or get lost.
1138415;1432026103;justJanne;So start a rebellion.
1138416;1432026114;williamdunne;In which case you get shot
1138417;1432026115;mircea_popescu;and here we are.
1138418;1432026115;justJanne;We'll see how it works out. Hint: it won't.
1138419;1432026124;mircea_popescu;i've been in open rebellion for years now.
1138420;1432026124;justJanne;Meh.
1138421;1432026125;mircea_popescu;works just fine.,
1138422;1432026133;mircea_popescu;and if it doesn't, fuckall and i dun care.
1138423;1432026140;justJanne;Open rebellion?
1138424;1432026146;justJanne;So, you don't pay taxes or anything?
1138425;1432026147;williamdunne;Public in other words
1138426;1432026167;justJanne;Or do you support the parliament that, according to you, never should make new laws?
1138427;1432026167;williamdunne;He pays taxes to the most serene republic IIRC
1138428;1432026173;mircea_popescu;justJanne http://trilema.com/2014/interacting-with-fiat-institutions-a-guide/ < start there.
1138429;1432026233;williamdunne;+1
1138430;1432026233;williamdunne;And then GPG contracts
1138431;1432026233;williamdunne;Kinda explains the no-laws thing
1138432;1432026242;williamdunne;http://trilema.com/2012/gpg-contracts/
1138433;1432026303;justJanne;Ah, that kind of "I question your authority" letter.
1138434;1432026303;mircea_popescu;but anyway : i, personally, pay no taxes. agents i own pay taxes in the jurisdictions i've incorporated them in, as you'd expect.
1138435;1432026303;mircea_popescu;which is what the deal is.
1138436;1432026303;mircea_popescu;and if the deal changes, they dissolve an' that's that.
1138437;1432026303;justJanne;Ah.
1138438;1432026303;justJanne;So, are you using roads? Water supply?
1138439;1432026316;williamdunne;Pisses in rivers
1138440;1432026323;mircea_popescu;i am buying access to anything i feel like.
1138441;1432026351;justJanne;Do you use any public roads?
1138442;1432026354;justJanne;I ask again.
1138443;1432026356;mircea_popescu;certainly.
1138444;1432026365;justJanne;Then you are committing theft.
1138445;1432026369;mircea_popescu;according to whom ?
1138446;1432026373;justJanne;As you stated before you aren't paying for them.
1138447;1432026377;williamdunne;Retard
1138448;1432026379;williamdunne;lol
1138449;1432026382;mircea_popescu;are you commiting theft when those volunteer firemen come put your hair out ?
1138450;1432026390;justJanne;No.
1138451;1432026399;williamdunne;"Who will build the roads!11"
1138452;1432026404;mircea_popescu;but you were extolling the virtues of not paying for their work a moment ago.
1138453;1432026407;justJanne;But the roads in the country you live in are for you to use, in return you pay taxes.
1138454;1432026412;williamdunne;If private companies can't build roads, they shouldn't exist
1138455;1432026416;mircea_popescu;i don't recall signing this deal.
1138456;1432026419;williamdunne;The state removed the market for them
1138457;1432026422;justJanne;Ofc private companies can build roads.
1138458;1432026427;justJanne;They do all the time.
1138459;1432026441;williamdunne;Ok, well state enforced monopoly doesn't justify theft, no more than my ejaculate justifies rape
1138460;1432026444;mircea_popescu;the notion that some govt owns the roads, seriously...
1138461;1432026447;justJanne;A danish private company just builds a tunnel to Germany right now.
1138462;1432026452;mircea_popescu;listen, is merkel paying you for using the public space ?
1138463;1432026494;williamdunne;justJanne: Right, this is the point. We didn't choose for Gov to build roads and would pay tolls if owned by private companies
1138464;1432026503;justJanne;See?
1138465;1432026507;williamdunne;Well, I would
1138466;1432026508;justJanne;Taxes are just tolls, too.
1138467;1432026511;mircea_popescu;no.
1138468;1432026514;williamdunne;No, they aren't
1138469;1432026514;justJanne;Yes.
1138470;1432026516;mircea_popescu;GOTTA SIGN A DEAL!11
1138471;1432026521;justJanne;No.
1138472;1432026522;mircea_popescu;you don't get to foist some random "law" on me.
1138473;1432026526;justJanne;There are implicit deals.
1138474;1432026530;mircea_popescu;you come up with a deal, if i agree you get away with it.
1138475;1432026530;justJanne;Like ToS.
1138476;1432026533;mircea_popescu;no such thing.
1138477;1432026538;williamdunne;I click "I agree to the ToS"
1138478;1432026542;justJanne;Not always.

1138482;1432026558;justJanne;Did you click "I agree to Freenode"'s ToS, ever?
1138483;1432026568;williamdunne;I drive onto a tollroad, pay them for that
1138484;1432026570;justJanne;And still you are subject to them.
1138485;1432026573;mircea_popescu;justJanne listen, you agree women that dress sluttily should be fucked byu whoever feels like ?
1138486;1432026578;mircea_popescu;because hey, implicit deal.
1138487;1432026580;williamdunne;^+1
1138488;1432026588;mircea_popescu;they don't want the cock, they shouldn't have clicked the short skirt tos.
1138489;1432026589;justJanne;Oh, THAT argument again.
1138490;1432026598;mircea_popescu;we had it befoar ?
1138491;1432026611;justJanne;Your argument is retarded.
1138492;1432026613;williamdunne;Comparing freenode to government is a little ridiculous, don't you think?
1138493;1432026616;justJanne;Please try to find another one.
1138494;1432026620;mircea_popescu;looky : there are no implicit deals. ever.
1138495;1432026621;justJanne;williamdunne: not really.
1138496;1432026627;williamdunne;justJanne: yes, really
1138497;1432026634;justJanne;How?
1138498;1432026642;williamdunne;Freenode asks for nothing from me
1138499;1432026651;justJanne;Yet.
1138500;1432026658;williamdunne;And if they do I will move
1138501;1432026661;williamdunne;If the deal changes..
1138502;1432026666;justJanne;See?
1138503;1432026669;williamdunne;But moving from freenode is a click
1138504;1432026674;williamdunne;Not a flight, not leaving family etc
1138505;1432026676;justJanne;Same with countries. If the deal changes, you can move.
1138506;1432026681;williamdunne;These two things are not the same
1138507;1432026696;justJanne;Moving from Freenode isn't easy either.
1138508;1432026699;williamdunne;Yes it is
1138509;1432026700;mircea_popescu;whoever changes the deal moves.
1138510;1432026706;mircea_popescu;not he who stayed true.
1138511;1432026706;justJanne;You have to convince all your peers to move, too
1138512;1432026714;mircea_popescu;government wants to change the rules, IT HAS TO MOVE.
1138513;1432026717;justJanne;All your friends, channels, etc.
1138514;1432026731;justJanne;Or leave them behind.
1138515;1432026732;williamdunne;I have to convince people to make some clicks, not hard if freenode implements a tax
1138516;1432026743;justJanne;depends.
1138517;1432026748;justJanne;Look at whatsapp.
1138518;1432026753;justJanne;They introduced a "tax"
1138519;1432026758;justJanne;And people still stayed there.
1138520;1432026764;justJanne;It's a similar situation.
1138521;1432026778;williamdunne;Very different userbase
1138522;1432026780;trinque;the fuck whatsapp is a government now
1138523;1432026782;trinque;stahhhhhp
1138524;1432026784;williamdunne;Apparently
1138525;1432026792;mircea_popescu;the fact that someone did something stupid does not make the stupid thing right.
1138526;1432026807;justJanne;You want governments to sign contracts with all citizen, what's more realistic?
1138527;1432026809;williamdunne;Apparently moving IRC servers and tos are equivalent to the violent rule of gov
1138528;1432026812;mircea_popescu;and what "the people" do or don't do is no basis for either law or sense.
1138529;1432026821;mircea_popescu;justJanne it's not a matter of "realistic"
1138530;1432026824;justJanne;It is the only basis.
1138531;1432026831;mircea_popescu;according to whom ?
1138532;1432026847;justJanne;According to every not-retarded politician, ever?
1138533;1432026854;mircea_popescu;the only realistic thing is to eat raw meat and dress in dead children.
1138534;1432026865;mircea_popescu;nutty bs. who ever asked any politician anything for crying out loud.
1138535;1432026868;justJanne;All politicians who said the opposite ended up as dictators.

1138540;1432026938;justJanne;-.-
1138541;1432026938;justJanne;Guys, please take some college courses in economy, politics, and philosophy.
1138542;1432026938;mircea_popescu;"ima call anyone that doesn't promote socialism a dictator and then say that not being socialist makes dictators"
1138543;1432026938;mircea_popescu;sure, it does. well done.
1138544;1432026938;mircea_popescu;might as well have the same argument about believing in christ and move to 1555 to be a nun.
1138545;1432026938;williamdunne;I want no leaders = dictator
1138546;1432026938;justJanne;It's hard to argue with you when you ask the same questions over and over again, and just goalpost all he time
1138547;1432026938;davout;justJanne: you sure have lots of stamina points
1138548;1432026956;williamdunne;davout: she's burning mana for the energy regen spell
1138549;1432026981;mircea_popescu;justJanne the reason it is hard to argue is because the list of places where your ideas fail is about eighteen entries long by now, and you're not directly interested in examining the holes and fixing your head, but instead would prefer us to somehow accept the nonsense.
1138550;1432026997;mircea_popescu;try the other tack, it'll go a lot easier.
1138551;1432027016;justJanne;There are holes, but the result still works better than any alternative.
1138552;1432027026;justJanne;Again, I have no issue with your system.
1138553;1432027036;justJanne;If you want, you can try it as a state.
1138554;1432027044;justJanne;Declare independency, make your own laws.
1138555;1432027047;williamdunne;We're already doing so
1138556;1432027051;williamdunne;*Have done
1138557;1432027051;williamdunne;Well
1138558;1432027052;mircea_popescu;this is kinda old by now, but yes.
1138559;1432027052;justJanne;We'll see in 30 years how it ends.
1138560;1432027057;williamdunne;I say we, I'm not involved
1138561;1432027072;mircea_popescu;if there's still a germany in 30 years, it may see how itshould behave and copy us, yes.

1138563;1432027138;mircea_popescu;if there isn't, a well. you're lucky enough to have come in early.
1138564;1432027138;justJanne;In other news,
1138565;1432027138;williamdunne;justJanne: Declaration of sovereignty
1138566;1432027138;justJanne;Denmark stopped printing cash last week.
1138567;1432027138;mircea_popescu;williamdunne quick : what's the difference between "Declaration of sovereignty" and "Declaration of independence" ?
1138568;1432027138;justJanne;From 2017 on, Denmark plans to do everything via digital money transfers.
1138569;1432027138;trinque;where's danielpbarron, it's the mark of the beast
1138570;1432027138;justJanne;No matter how, or using what currency.
1138571;1432027138;williamdunne;mircea_popescu: No clue, tbh
1138572;1432027144;mircea_popescu;the latter recognises the sovereignty of the entity it secedes from. the former does not.
1138573;1432027163;williamdunne;Ah, well I prefer the former in this case then
1138574;1432027175;mircea_popescu;which is how it got to be htere.
1138575;1432027191;mircea_popescu;justJanne you know i use cash almost exclusively ?
1138576;1432027205;mircea_popescu;funny to do here, too, a brick is worth like 800 bucks or so.
1138577;1432027229;davout;justJanne: btw, how did you end up here?
1138578;1432027250;mircea_popescu;hn
1138579;1432027257;williamdunne;mircea_popescu: Wondered, can you not get a lot more for your money if you pay with USD? Or would that get you shot?
1138580;1432027270;justJanne;davout: discussion about RSA, tbh.
1138581;1432027275;mircea_popescu;williamdunne official dollar is 8.6 pesos, unoficcial like 13.
1138582;1432027299;mircea_popescu;amusingly enough, they pay like 10% less for 20 dollar bills. only want 100s.
1138583;1432027309;mircea_popescu;which iirc don't even exist in the us.
1138584;1432027315;williamdunne;Wait what?
1138585;1432027324;mircea_popescu;yup
1138586;1432027324;williamdunne;Are they official mintage or..?
1138587;1432027328;mircea_popescu;yup.
1138588;1432027338;williamdunne;Sorta like the £1,000,000 note in the UK I guess
1138589;1432027360;justJanne;mircea_popescu: in Denmark, almost all transfers are digital anyway. As the official system is cheaper, faster, and easier than bitcoin even.
1138590;1432027367;BingoBoingo; which iirc don't even exist in the us. << 100's still exist here
1138591;1432027371;mircea_popescu;and reported. i would never use it.
1138592;1432027374;williamdunne;justJanne: well ofc
1138593;1432027380;mircea_popescu;BingoBoingo forcing a point.
1138594;1432027382;williamdunne;justJanne: bitcoin isn't that cheap or fast
1138595;1432027403;williamdunne;Well, it is currently pretty cheap and fast
1138596;1432027410;williamdunne;But it shouldn't be compared to centralized systems
1138597;1432027415;mircea_popescu;the idea that i'd allow a third party to look into my accounts... what the fuck is this, the future ?
1138598;1432027416;williamdunne;Thats just the derpery of governments
1138599;1432027424;BingoBoingo;It prolly won't bee too long before they bring back 100,000 bills with the Woodrow Wilson and everything
1138600;1432027426;justJanne;They aren't really centralized either.
1138601;1432027433;justJanne;More like a web of hundreds of central points
1138602;1432027441;mircea_popescu;that's centralized.
1138603;1432027442;justJanne;While bitcoin has millions of nodes.
1138604;1432027444;williamdunne;Central bank decentralized now?
1138605;1432027463;justJanne;Denmark has no digital central bank — the money flows from node to node.
1138606;1432027472;trinque;the point is the fucking records
1138607;1432027474;justJanne;I can send money to another merchant without it ever touching a bank
1138608;1432027477;trinque;not how many buildings they have
1138609;1432027481;mircea_popescu;i don't think you understand what centralized-decentralized mean.
1138610;1432027496;justJanne;Just because my money is only a cryptographic signature on my credit card.
1138611;1432027513;williamdunne;justJanne: How is current issuance handled then? Banks trusted to issue their authorised balance?
1138612;1432027532;williamdunne;I know in the UK it works with central bank reserve/payment accounts
1138613;1432027540;williamdunne;Which all settlement systems are built on top of
1138614;1432027541;justJanne;Kinda.
1138615;1432027557;justJanne;The thing is, the reason why German debit cards don't work in any other place,
1138616;1432027557;williamdunne;Just another meta layer
1138617;1432027574;justJanne;Is because they store the money as a cryptographically signed transaction history on the card.
1138618;1432027583;trinque;how about less this bullshit and more on the definition of centralized vs decentralized
1138619;1432027632;mircea_popescu;im really curious what'll come of this.
1138620;1432027669;mircea_popescu;clever chick with a head fulla stupid meets #b-a. anyone care to bet on the linecount total ?
1138621;1432027682;trinque;been all day
1138622;1432027688;mircea_popescu;what is it, 1k by now ?
1138623;1432027711;mircea_popescu;545. nevertheless a record i think ?
1138624;1432027760;williamdunne;From the frequency of messages don't think she even read the GPG contracts etc, let alone historical logs
1138625;1432027802;justJanne;Hmm.
1138626;1432027827;justJanne;I wonder how much calculation power it would take to break 4096-bit RSA.
1138627;1432027852;mircea_popescu;williamdunne skimming, it's how intelligent kids end up coping with school.
1138628;1432027866;mircea_popescu;horrible habit, but what are yo ugoing to do.
1138629;1432027872;mircea_popescu;can't shoot the retards amirite.
1138630;1432027882;williamdunne;I've been trying to break that habit, think I'm about there
1138631;1432027890;justJanne;I mean, a startup in my city sells FPGA clusters that can be used for that (or for crypto mining), and the NSA bought 256 clusters, each should be enough to break AES256 in 2 weeks.
1138632;1432027913;trinque;we're not gonna get a definition of centralized/decentralized
1138633;1432027947;justJanne;decentralized is a system where all nodes are equal.
1138634;1432027947;williamdunne;Too much effort for her to google
1138635;1432027955;williamdunne;..
1138636;1432027956;justJanne;It's as easy as that.
1138637;1432027961;mircea_popescu;it's not, no.
1138638;1432027968;justJanne;Yes, it is.
1138639;1432027970;williamdunne;Are all nodes in bitcoin equal? News to me
1138640;1432027983;mircea_popescu;justJanne da fuck do you mean "yes it is".
1138641;1432027992;assbot;[MPEX] [S.MPOE] 36164 @ 0.00027707 = 10.02 BTC [-]
1138642;1432027992;mircea_popescu;what do you take yourself for, some sort of equal or something ?
1138643;1432027998;justJanne;Any homogenous graph is decentralized.
1138644;1432028007;mircea_popescu;that's true for graphs.
1138645;1432028021;justJanne;Every web of nodes is just a graph.
1138646;1432028024;mircea_popescu;but in graph theory, decentralized is a term of art.
1138647;1432028033;mircea_popescu;no, it's not. because the map is not the territory.
1138648;1432028062;justJanne;A web of nodes is a graph, as a graph, per definition, is just a set of nodes, and a set of relations between nodes.
1138649;1432028078;mircea_popescu;do you understand what "the map is not the territory" means ?
1138650;1432028085;trinque;what's the command structure of the society within which your decentralized banks operate?
1138651;1432028140;justJanne;The banks aren't either fully centralized, nor fully decentralized. Anyone can just open a bank, the question is if other banks will accept money from your customers as payment, as they don't know if they can trust your cryptographic signature.
1138652;1432028153;trinque;the fuck is this where they're both or neither
1138653;1432028199;williamdunne;"anyone can just open a bank" < or rly?
1138654;1432028201;justJanne;It's the same as minimum and smallest, two completely different definitions.
1138655;1432028216;mircea_popescu;so what is "Danmarks Nationalbank" then ?
1138656;1432028240;justJanne;I'm currently talking about northern Germany, as I don't know the internals of Denmark, it's the same, though.
1138657;1432028259;justJanne;There is a difference between the printed money and and the way digital money works.
1138658;1432028270;trinque;the whole EU sounds like what they do in portland tech companies
1138659;1432028278;trinque;where everyone smiles and no one's like, your boss, man
1138660;1432028279;justJanne;GeldKarte is one example.
1138661;1432028290;mircea_popescu;you don't know but it's the same ?
1138662;1432028298;justJanne;Person A can pay person B, person B can pay person C
1138663;1432028308;trinque;the banks are totally decentralized because they've got various sub-departments of some huge central authority
1138664;1432028308;justJanne;All this while they are completely offline.
1138665;1432028314;mircea_popescu;trinque depends who's describing it ya know ?
1138666;1432028319;justJanne;Okay, again, please listen.
1138667;1432028327;trinque;of course
1138668;1432028330;trinque;mircea_popescu: ^
1138669;1432028335;justJanne;Imagine we have 3 people, completely offline.
1138670;1432028339;mircea_popescu;okay.
1138671;1432028340;justJanne;A pays person B money.
1138672;1432028346;justJanne;Person B pays person C money.
1138673;1432028352;justJanne;(All through GeldKarte)
1138674;1432028360;mircea_popescu;which is offline throughout.
1138675;1432028368;justJanne;yes.
1138676;1432028373;mircea_popescu;go on.
1138677;1432028377;justJanne;Person C now goes online and can spend the money.
1138678;1432028386;mircea_popescu;what happens in the following scenario :
1138679;1432028395;justJanne;You can transfer money offline, and it is valid.
1138680;1432028399;mircea_popescu;b has no money. a gives him 100 moneys. b sends 100 money to C and 100 money to D.
1138681;1432028407;mircea_popescu;can c and d each now spend 100 ?
1138682;1432028412;justJanne;No.
1138683;1432028415;mircea_popescu;because ?
1138684;1432028427;justJanne;They can't spend anything, as the last two statements are invalid.
1138685;1432028445;justJanne;You have at the beginning 0 money.
1138686;1432028446;mircea_popescu;show, don't tell.
1138687;1432028457;williamdunne;Thats pretty impractical
1138688;1432028467;justJanne;Your card stores a list of cryptographically signed money from the sender.
1138689;1432028483;justJanne;So, I send you money, by sending you a cryptographically signed info "I sent you n money"
1138690;1432028483;mircea_popescu;justJanne yes. so i copy that list and send money to 500 people
1138691;1432028494;justJanne;You can't.
1138692;1432028497;mircea_popescu;because why not ?
1138693;1432028521;justJanne;Copying is prevented through unique salts for each transaction.
1138694;1432028524;mircea_popescu;derp.
1138695;1432028532;mircea_popescu;if i can send money to either a or b
1138696;1432028539;mircea_popescu;then necessarily i can send to both. so i do. what now.
1138697;1432028551;punkman;justJanne: I mean, a startup in my city sells FPGA clusters that can be used for that (or for crypto mining), and the NSA bought 256 clusters, each should be enough to break AES256 in 2 weeks. << lolwut
1138698;1432028554;justJanne;Then the last person receiving it won't be able to use it.
1138699;1432028555;mircea_popescu;i'll tell you what now : whoever gets first online spends it.
1138700;1432028560;williamdunne;justJanne: Do you have a paper or something for this?
1138701;1432028562;punkman;GeldKarte > "This system is protected against double-spending by not allowing the user to read the keys from their smart card."
1138702;1432028565;mircea_popescu;the other fails, the bank gets alerted that this was copied and the police shows up
1138703;1432028572;mircea_popescu;denmark has got a stupid, centralist bitcoin.
1138704;1432028578;justJanne;Yup.
1138705;1432028587;justJanne;It existed 10 years before bitcoin, though.
1138706;1432028588;williamdunne;Oh
1138707;1432028589;mircea_popescu;it will never work. the only reason its not being raped wide open is because atm nobody gives a shit about swine country.
1138708;1432028597;williamdunne;Nevermind, I'll ignore the paper that is derpy
1138709;1432028602;assbot;[MPEX] [S.MPOE] 69050 @ 0.0002832 = 19.555 BTC [+] {2} 
1138710;1432028608;williamdunne;Can you use this card for luxury purchases?
1138711;1432028615;punkman;" Funds cannot move freely within the system. They can move from a bank  account (or cash) to a Geldkarte. From there, they can only be moved to a  merchant's card and from the merchant's card, they can only go to the  merchant's bank account."
1138712;1432028618;mircea_popescu;punkman because this can be done now.
1138713;1432028626;justJanne;that's an old article then.
1138714;1432028630;williamdunne;i.e cars, jewellery etc
1138715;1432028640;justJanne;Or it was a different system.
1138716;1432028651;justJanne;Because we have so many different debit card companies >_>
1138717;1432028656;mircea_popescu;justJanne odds are you just had a superificial understanding of it.
1138718;1432028660;williamdunne;Which surely rely on banks
1138719;1432028672;justJanne;GeldKarte, EC Karte, etc.
1138720;1432028700;justJanne;so, williamdunne, your question:
1138721;1432028710;mircea_popescu;anyway, denmark is probably the best example of usistan. "The worlds largest public sector (30% of the entire workforce on a full-time basis) is financed by the world's highest taxes."

1138724;1432028787;trinque;man... justJanne you have recalibrated me for tolerating canadians
1138725;1432028797;mircea_popescu;lmao
1138726;1432028819;justJanne;mircea_popescu: the Nordics still pay about the same taxes as the US, but you get free healthcare, free college, welfare, and an almost unregulated market.
1138727;1432028834;justJanne;You pay like 6% more.
1138728;1432028841;mircea_popescu;justJanne how much have you travelled ? outside of the eu i mean
1138729;1432028841;justJanne;Definitely worth it.
1138730;1432028860;justJanne;I haven't travelled outside EU yet. Never had the money to do so.
1138731;1432028873;justJanne;Parents aren't exactly rich xD
1138732;1432028883;mircea_popescu;aha. well the thing is, the books you read are kinda deliberately written so as to make you think you're in the best possible place.
1138733;1432028892;mircea_popescu;what are you doing this summer ?
1138734;1432028899;justJanne;(And no, without free college I couldn't go to university.)
1138735;1432028918;justJanne;This summer? I'll work on several open source projects, like the IRC client I use right now.
1138736;1432028940;mircea_popescu;ben_vulpes trinque hey lot, if i buy her plane tickets do you show her portland ? a week or so ?
1138737;1432028945;mircea_popescu;i don't imagine she takes up much space.
1138738;1432028958;trinque;ha sure why not
1138739;1432028963;mircea_popescu;justJanne you wanna go ?

1138741;1432029008;williamdunne;justJanne: Don't need university
1138742;1432029013;trinque;portland would be too capitalist for her
1138743;1432029021;justJanne;(Yes, the laws in Germany apply to all "people", not just citizens)
1138744;1432029030;trinque;there should be a lot less citizens.
1138745;1432029058;justJanne;Already happening.
1138746;1432029074;justJanne;Germany has a child per family rate of 1.4
1138747;1432029082;mircea_popescu;interesting.
1138748;1432029089;justJanne;So far below the replacement rate of 2.25
1138749;1432029095;justJanne;All the Nordics have 1.4, too
1138750;1432029106;mircea_popescu;clearly the system works and is sustainable.
1138751;1432029112;justJanne;Automatically shrinking the population to a point where it is sustainable.
1138752;1432029119;mircea_popescu;perhaps.
1138753;1432029120;williamdunne;Yes, plenty of children to pay for their communist parents

1138765;1432029511;mircea_popescu;Germany is home to at least 24,000 women from African countries who've undergone female circumcision (as reported by DW in 2004)
1138766;1432029511;mircea_popescu;prolly 100k by now ?
1138767;1432029516;chetty;ouch, you makes me squirm
1138768;1432029521;justJanne;Not really.
1138769;1432029521;justJanne;Almost no immigration since then.
1138770;1432029521;justJanne;The largest wave of immigration was in the 70s and 80s
1138771;1432029532;justJanne;So, 24 thousand immigrants are mutilated.
1138772;1432029544;justJanne;And we pay them free healthcare to fix it.
1138773;1432029552;williamdunne;How do you fix it?
1138774;1432029552;mircea_popescu;o you're gonna fix it ?
1138775;1432029561;mircea_popescu;damn i like the nordic model more and more
1138776;1432029565;mircea_popescu;williamdunne shut up they're fixing it.
1138777;1432029568;justJanne;That's no a problem.
1138778;1432029582;williamdunne;Sorry Charles about hacking your head off, I'll stitch it back on in just a jiffy! Universal healthcare ftw
1138779;1432029587;mircea_popescu;chetty imagine, that's like a quarter ton of bits ?
1138780;1432029596;justJanne;Ofc it is shit.
1138781;1432029612;mircea_popescu;justJanne maybe it's good for you, how do you know ?
1138782;1432029618;mircea_popescu;i thought all people should have equal chances.
1138783;1432029619;justJanne;But again, those are immigrants — they moved here decades after they were mutilated.
1138784;1432029630;mircea_popescu;and you know this the same way it was 0, right ?
1138785;1432029641;justJanne;No.
1138786;1432029652;justJanne;But I know this because your quote and your article say it.
1138787;1432029670;justJanne;People, immigrants, from African countries, who got mutilated and then moved here
1138788;1432029703;justJanne;So no, it's not a German issue. We still try to do our best to fix the mistakes someone else did.

1138792;1432029761;mircea_popescu;justJanne didn't you say all people should be equal ?
1138793;1432029764;davout;well, adoption is on the rise, so what can i say
1138794;1432029767;mircea_popescu;how are these migrants any worse than you ?
1138795;1432029773;mircea_popescu;maybe you should try the mutilation thing.
1138796;1432029816;williamdunne;Socialism to me does seem a lot like the "no kid left behind" school bullshit that appeals to the lowest common denominator and lowers the median
1138797;1432029832;justJanne;You got it wrong.
1138798;1432029834;mircea_popescu;in any case the poor girls without the bits can't grow them back up, so in order for everyone to have equal chances at an orgasm, off with your clit!
1138799;1432029841;justJanne;It lowers the average, but increases the median
1138800;1432029845;mircea_popescu;and because the government can alter the deal, here, it's a new law now.
1138801;1432029848;mircea_popescu;enjoy socialism!
1138802;1432029855;williamdunne;justJanne: Median is average
1138803;1432029858;justJanne;No.
1138804;1432029866;justJanne;Average is the sum divided by the amount.
1138805;1432029867;mircea_popescu;she has a point. it does lower the average but increase the median
1138806;1432029871;mircea_popescu;which is EXACTLY what the problem is.
1138807;1432029872;justJanne;Median is the middle person.
1138808;1432029892;mircea_popescu;places with high medians are places not worth living in.
1138809;1432029901;justJanne;That's what you think.
1138810;1432029902;mircea_popescu;the entire point of life is diferentiation from the median.
1138811;1432029907;mircea_popescu;of course it is, that's why i say it.
1138812;1432029914;justJanne;I think places with low median aren't worth living in.
1138813;1432029922;williamdunne;http://www.purplemath.com/modules/meanmode.htm
1138814;1432029982;mircea_popescu;the difference being that this isn't what you think,
1138815;1432029982;mircea_popescu;just what you've been told to think.
1138816;1432029982;justJanne;williamdunne: please take stochastics 101 at a university,
1138817;1432029982;justJanne;You'll know what mean and average are.
1138818;1432029985;mircea_popescu;stochastics 101 o.O ?!
1138819;1432029996;mircea_popescu;this actually is a thing ?!
1138820;1432030000;williamdunne;Sounds like a musician "Stoch"
1138821;1432030001;justJanne;Introduction into stochastic, yeah.
1138822;1432030005;williamdunne;And he's German most likely
1138823;1432030007;williamdunne;So it fits
1138824;1432030015;justJanne;Theoretical statistics.
1138825;1432030021;mircea_popescu;but this in physics ? as in, stochastics mechanics ?
1138826;1432030029;mircea_popescu;oh.
1138827;1432030029;justJanne;No.
1138828;1432030029;williamdunne;"Did you see Stoch's latest concert? It was Stochastic!"
1138829;1432030033;mircea_popescu;so statistics 101 ?
1138830;1432030036;justJanne;No.
1138831;1432030046;justJanne;Statistics is different.
1138832;1432030050;mircea_popescu;can you link the course ?
1138833;1432030066;justJanne;I'm on mobile, sadly no.
1138834;1432030073;justJanne;Also, it would be in German anyway.

1138839;1432030186;justJanne;Nah.
1138840;1432030186;justJanne;That's a master module.
1138841;1432030186;mircea_popescu;ikr ?
1138842;1432030186;justJanne;Uni Köln has a nice transcript.
1138843;1432030186;justJanne;The mathematicians in Kiel still refuse to use calculators or computers.
1138844;1432030186;mircea_popescu;i thought you went to kiel.
1138845;1432030189;justJanne;I do.
1138846;1432030207;justJanne;But Kiel's mathematicians refuse to put anything on the public web.
1138847;1432030220;justJanne;You can get it if you are in their intranet, though.
1138848;1432030221;mircea_popescu;lol
1138849;1432030227;williamdunne;setup a proxy to the intranet
1138850;1432030234;justJanne;They have.
1138851;1432030241;williamdunne;No a public one
1138852;1432030249;justJanne;Nope.
1138853;1432030258;mircea_popescu;what, you want her to end up in aaron schwartz's cell ?
1138854;1432030267;justJanne;As access to the intranet is bound through X.509 to a user account
1138855;1432030288;williamdunne;A university dedicate to not sharing information, not very socialist of them
1138856;1432030300;justJanne;Anyway, we are going way off topic.
1138857;1432030311;williamdunne;Yes, we should be discussing bitcoin assets
1138858;1432030317;davout;justJanne: for like 12 hours now...
1138859;1432030318;justJanne;Not that far.
1138860;1432030340;mircea_popescu;speaking of the broke ass pki, http://blog.trendmicro.com/trendlabs-security-intelligence/a-look-at-the-gnutls-x-509-verification-code-flaw/
1138861;1432030400;justJanne;Anyway, why are we still arguing? I said I have no issue with you trying to build your state system, I just don't believe it will last, and you guys spending 14h trying to convince me the system I like most is shit.
1138862;1432030442;mircea_popescu;the problem isn't that we're going "off topic", as there isn't a topic. the problem is that you very badly suck at most verbal and cognitive tasks. but hopefully we've run the gamut by now.
1138863;1432030464;chetty;I havent read the whole log but I am curious, is anyone trying to convince, or just stating facts?
1138864;1432030479;justJanne;Mostly stating facts.
1138865;1432030489;davout;*ahem*
1138866;1432030495;justJanne;Mostly.
1138867;1432030501;mircea_popescu;most of the discussion flows as "comonly held belief 1" "why" "because 2" "why" "because 3" why" "because 1.1" etc
1138868;1432030544;mircea_popescu;anyway, nothing a summer's worth of lurk moar can't fix.
1138869;1432030546;justJanne;The largest issue is that many people discussed with me, each having different opinions.
1138870;1432030560;williamdunne;Thats what happens when you talk to a group of people
1138871;1432030571;mircea_popescu;we suck at being a cult.
1138872;1432030573;justJanne;And combined, these people's opinions would cancel each other our.
1138873;1432030579;justJanne;*out
1138874;1432030593;mircea_popescu;is it ?
1138875;1432030597;williamdunne;Ey?
1138876;1432030606;justJanne;Yes.
1138877;1432030628;trinque;we are all different forces on different vectors and we cancel out?
1138878;1432030631;justJanne;Some people said, before, people should be held responsible for the decisions of their ancestors, they can even be punished for them.
1138879;1432030645;justJanne;Some others said taxes are bad, because you personally aren't responsible for them.
1138880;1432030655;justJanne;Combined, the statements are nuts.
1138881;1432030706;williamdunne;Some people said, before, people should be held responsible for the decisions of their ancestors, they can even be punished for them. <<< who actually said this, I'm curious about the justification
1138882;1432030708;mircea_popescu;justJanne the impression you get comes from you observing what's being said with too broad a brush.
1138883;1432030745;justJanne;williamdunne: it was used as defense against my argument that "children should have equal chances, no matter if their parents are poor or rich"
1138884;1432030762;mircea_popescu;for instance, i didn't say people should be punished for what ancestors did. you conflated two statements : 1) that you can't expect me to pay for the poor behaviour of one's ancestors and 2) that i punish people by what they are rather than they wish to be.
1138885;1432030768;williamdunne;What was the actual answer, because not giving them equal chances is very different
1138886;1432030769;justJanne;Because I said "people aren't responsible for the actions of their ancestors"
1138887;1432030771;mircea_popescu;these have precise and rather subtle meanings, is all.
1138888;1432030796;justJanne;So, people should be held responsible for the actions of their ancestors.
1138889;1432030799;williamdunne;Yeah thats what I expected
1138890;1432030799;williamdunne;No
1138891;1432030802;mircea_popescu;there's a difference between punishment and responsibility.
1138892;1432030806;justJanne;But they shouldn't.
1138893;1432030817;mircea_popescu;moreover, the situation where you're poor because daddy was a drunk is neither your punishment nor your responsibility.
1138894;1432030821;mircea_popescu;it is, merely, YOUR SITUATION.
1138895;1432030825;mircea_popescu;improve it and that's that.
1138896;1432030826;williamdunne;We're not all equal, but I don't want to make it worse for you
1138897;1432030840;justJanne;Okay, so, mircea_popescu, taxes are the same
1138898;1432030848;mircea_popescu;the same needs two operands.
1138899;1432030864;justJanne;The situation that you live in a place with taxes is neither your punishment nor you'd responsibility.
1138900;1432030872;justJanne;It is, merely, Your situation.
1138901;1432030874;williamdunne;Yes it is
1138902;1432030876;mircea_popescu;i don't live in a place owned by someone else.
1138903;1432030878;williamdunne;Its a punishment
1138904;1432030881;williamdunne;Its an active force
1138905;1432030883;justJanne;How so?
1138906;1432030888;mircea_popescu;what do you mean "how" ?
1138907;1432030891;williamdunne;If you don't pay someone rapes you
1138908;1432030898;justJanne;Where is the difference between having to pay the debts of your parents
1138909;1432030901;williamdunne;If you're poor.. you can't do something, but nothing actually happens
1138910;1432030904;justJanne;And having to pay taxes.
1138911;1432030913;williamdunne;Who says you pay your parents debt?
1138912;1432030914;mircea_popescu;the debts of your parents is a novel development, wasn't discussed before.
1138913;1432030926;justJanne;It is part of the poor debate.
1138914;1432030932;mircea_popescu;apparently it's not.
1138915;1432030936;williamdunne;No it isn't, no one should inherit debt
1138916;1432030940;justJanne;May those debts be monetary, or indirect.
1138917;1432030950;mircea_popescu;you don't get to call any negative number "a debt"
1138918;1432030951;justJanne;williamdunne: and what is with indirect debt?
1138919;1432030954;mircea_popescu;the word has a specific meaning.
1138920;1432030960;williamdunne;What are we calling indirect debt?
1138921;1432030978;justJanne;When your parents are so piss poor you have to work as a child to not starve.
1138922;1432030985;williamdunne;Thats a lack of a think
1138923;1432030989;williamdunne;Debt is a thing you have
1138924;1432030995;williamdunne;Not a lack of a thing
1138925;1432031010;justJanne;Debt is a responsibility of having to pay, yes.
1138926;1432031018;justJanne;But for the person, it is the same.
1138927;1432031036;williamdunne;No, it isn't
1138928;1432031037;mircea_popescu;so a bottle and a penis are, for a flatworm, "the same"
1138929;1432031045;mircea_popescu;doesn't mean you can run around sticking bottles up your ass.
1138930;1432031056;justJanne;Okay, back then.
1138931;1432031062;chetty; When your parents are so piss poor you have to work as a child to not starve.// some might consider that an advantage
1138932;1432031074;justJanne;If you think so.
1138933;1432031083;justJanne;Thing is, of you have to work and can't go to school,
1138934;1432031093;justJanne;You lose something due to the bad choices of your parents.
1138935;1432031096;williamdunne;Did me good
1138936;1432031103;mircea_popescu;justJanne you lose something, gain something else.
1138937;1432031113;justJanne;williamdunne: it shows. It shows very much.
1138938;1432031113;mircea_popescu;that's the way it goes. if you have children, you lose your juvenile figure.
1138939;1432031117;mircea_popescu;if you don't, you don't have children.
1138940;1432031129;justJanne;It's not the same.
1138941;1432031133;justJanne;The question here is:
1138942;1432031149;justJanne;Why is inheriting debts different?
1138943;1432031158;justJanne;You said inheriting debts shouldn't be a thing.
1138944;1432031159;mircea_popescu;because debt flows from a contrat.
1138945;1432031173;justJanne;But inheriting money is okay?
1138946;1432031173;mircea_popescu;and a contract can only be enforced by its parties.
1138947;1432031176;williamdunne;Yes
1138948;1432031183;mircea_popescu;what problem do you see with it ?
1138949;1432031186;trinque;also a contract
1138950;1432031187;justJanne;And what about inheriting stocks?
1138951;1432031188;williamdunne;No one enforces inheritance, its not a contract
1138952;1432031190;williamdunne;give it away
1138953;1432031199;williamdunne;justJanne: Stocks with liability?
1138954;1432031234;mircea_popescu;stocks don't carry liability, nor have they ever.
1138955;1432031238;justJanne;Most stocks are a contract saying that you pay money, in return get a part of the profits and the power over a company.
1138956;1432031247;justJanne;But the contract is specifically signed to you.
1138957;1432031251;mircea_popescu;no. stocks are a contract saying that you PAID money,
1138958;1432031256;mircea_popescu;and forevermore get a share of the company.
1138959;1432031260;justJanne;Yes.
1138960;1432031270;williamdunne;derp on my part
1138961;1432031272;justJanne;But the contract is again bound to you.
1138962;1432031272;mircea_popescu;they are negotiable instruments, just like any other.
1138963;1432031291;justJanne;So, the question is, should inheriting these contracts be possible?
1138964;1432031298;mircea_popescu;the contract is not inherited.
1138965;1432031300;mircea_popescu;it is conveyed.
1138966;1432031302;justJanne;And if yes, why are they so different from debt contracts?
1138967;1432031308;williamdunne;Liability
1138968;1432031329;justJanne;And what about inverse debt?
1138969;1432031337;justJanne;You lend someone money. You die.
1138970;1432031344;*;mircea_popescu perceives the deep, faint marks of ancient saxon legal strictures in the girl's attempt.
1138971;1432031345;justJanne;Can your children force the person to pay?
1138972;1432031351;mircea_popescu;fascinating what cultural nationality turns out to be.
1138973;1432031371;mircea_popescu;justJanne depends how the contract was worded.
1138974;1432031377;mircea_popescu;is it assignable ? have you assigned it to them ?
1138975;1432031385;justJanne;So, then debt is only inheritable in some cases?
1138976;1432031395;mircea_popescu;debt is never inheritable.
1138977;1432031400;justJanne;This creates an issue with williamdunne's comment.
1138978;1432031413;justJanne;Because either contracts are inheritable, or they are not.
1138979;1432031415;williamdunne;justJanne: No it doesn't, you know I meant debt as if in the liability not the asset
1138980;1432031421;mircea_popescu;the fact that i convey a claim against you to him does not mean he inherited it from me.
1138981;1432031425;mircea_popescu;it merely means i conveyed it to him.
1138982;1432031432;justJanne;Debt as a liability and debt as an asset have to be treated the same.
1138983;1432031440;williamdunne;No, they don't
1138984;1432031456;mircea_popescu;i'm not even sure what that aims to mean.
1138985;1432031460;justJanne;So, again,
1138986;1432031466;justJanne;We have a contract between two parties.
1138987;1432031470;mircea_popescu;right.
1138988;1432031481;justJanne;One party can give the contract to another person,
1138989;1432031489;justJanne;But the other party is always bound to it?
1138990;1432031497;justJanne;That sounds very unfair.
1138991;1432031498;mircea_popescu;if the contract is so phrased, yes.
1138992;1432031508;mircea_popescu;hey, lex pacta. you can make a contract say whatever you wish it to say
1138993;1432031515;justJanne;No, you can't.
1138994;1432031517;mircea_popescu;the counterpart being that you can never impose a contract on anyone.
1138995;1432031532;justJanne;If the contract is worded so that it provides and obvious disadvantage for one party, it is void.
1138996;1432031534;mircea_popescu;well obviously i can.
1138997;1432031538;mircea_popescu;not here.
1138998;1432031548;justJanne;In most of the world, yes.
1138999;1432031554;justJanne;For good reason.
1139000;1432031555;mircea_popescu;irrelevant.
1139001;1432031566;justJanne;No.

1139057;1432032063;justJanne;Anyway,
1139058;1432032065;justJanne;Interestingly, you should read about the veil of ignorance.
1139059;1432032072;justJanne;It's a nice thought experiment.
1139060;1432032073;mircea_popescu;justJanne "most of society" that gets a voice, which is bored women.
1139061;1432032094;justJanne;And, interestingly, this thought experiment almost always ends in the Nordic model.
1139062;1432032099;justJanne;The thought experiment is:
1139063;1432032104;mircea_popescu;you seriously contemplate teh notion i'm not aware of "veil of ignorance" etc ?
1139064;1432032113;justJanne;Oh, cool.
1139065;1432032125;justJanne;So, assuming this experiment, how can you be for an anarchist society,

1139073;1432032181;mircea_popescu;being poor is only a problem if you belong there. otherwise, it's like being dirty.
1139074;1432032183;mircea_popescu;washes right off.
1139075;1432032185;justJanne;How would you design a society, assuming you have to live in it later, you can be any person in it, it is random.
1139076;1432032198;mircea_popescu;i don't believe in this cultural warfare bs.

1139079;1432032221;justJanne;Of course most people end up designing a society where everyone has enough to live, but also has chance to become rich.
1139080;1432032231;mircea_popescu;you don't follow the important point.
1139081;1432032233;justJanne;Which is the Nordic model.
1139082;1432032239;mircea_popescu;again : people are not rootless, leaves in the wind of "society".
1139083;1432032313;mircea_popescu;to propose that you can randomly switch people around as if they were interchangeable parts is already to introduce socialism as a given
1139084;1432032322;mircea_popescu;socialism is not only not a given, it is the system of organised stupidity.

1139087;1432032373;justJanne;The idea is to create a society where every person has an acceptable life.

1139116;1432032656;justJanne;He could have worked as legal attorney,

1139904;1432104017;isaackl;I.e., how many of the VC-funded "crypocurrency! blockchain!" startups have realised the optimal move is simply to hoard bitcoin?
1139905;1432104277;ben_vulpes;isaackl: see the copious historical threads on how fiat-backed forays into bitcoin are more-or-less raiding parties for the US Treasury
1139906;1432104303;isaackl;ben_vulpes: "Buterin's waterfall", etc?
1139907;1432104554;isaackl;I would still bet that 95% of bitcoin startup guys are true believers

1139909;1432104762;ben_vulpes;the waterfall was the windmill-tilt at driving the price to zero
1139910;1432104791;ben_vulpes;are you familiar with the notion of "useful idiots"?
1139911;1432104834;isaackl;Yeah
1139912;1432105027;isaackl;21.co (and their a16z backers) on paper seem too smart to be useful idiots

1139916;1432105083;isaackl;Yeah, I figured that as the most likely null hypothesis

1139951;1432106134;ben_vulpes;isaackl: what kinds of businesses do you have your eyes on?
1139952;1432106427;isaackl;Well, taking the thesis that the real value of bitcoin is as an inflation hedge, and that funds will increasingly flow into bitcoin as people realise this
1139953;1432106481;isaackl;(i.e., after a few more reward halvings mean less coin is being dumped on the market by miners, speculators have been burned enough times that more coin is held by long-term investors and volatility drops a bit)
1139954;1432106590;isaackl;Sensible bitcoin businesses are those that increase the value of btc as an investment (not user adoption or transaction volume or anything like that
1139955;1432106606;ben_vulpes;wait whut
1139956;1432106610;ben_vulpes;no no man no
1139957;1432106620;ben_vulpes;a sensible btc business makes bitcoins for its owners
1139958;1432106623;ben_vulpes;nothing more, nothing less
1139959;1432106666;mircea_popescu;i see this is becoming a dailything now.
1139960;1432106681;ben_vulpes;nobody can do anything to increase the value of btc as an investment. it's here, it's queer, nobody's changing it.

1140000;1432107190;mircea_popescu;when jurov bitched.
1140001;1432107190;isaackl;My reasoning was, there's multiple candidates to unseat the USD. RMB, Gold, BTC
1140002;1432107219;ben_vulpes;mircea_popescu: yeah i'm going to find her photo and then doxx her
1140003;1432107222;mircea_popescu;isaackl what's this, like an exam of sorts ? the heavenly throne is holding a vote to replace the old usd with a spiffy young fellow ?
1140004;1432107223;isaackl;Currency is a schelling point. People with lots of USD start buying bitcoin, eventually there's a runaway effect
1140005;1432107239;mircea_popescu;ben_vulpes intel has her photo, at 16 and current. looks a little tranny.
1140006;1432107267;ben_vulpes;poor thing, no wonder she's spending her life in my little pony chans
1140007;1432107293;isaackl;No, just the aggregate decisions of people with lots of USD. If 60% choose to buy gold and 40% choose to buy btc
1140008;1432107325;mircea_popescu;it's the blessing of suck, you know ? very beautiful (and i mean, VERY, stunner beautiful) chicks develop early adolescence dementia because of all the insane sexual attention they get and don't really want, need, or know what to do with.
1140009;1432107339;mircea_popescu;very smart chicks develop the same, because of the same, only different but in the end the same.
1140010;1432107345;mircea_popescu;adults are fucking perverts.
1140011;1432107381;mircea_popescu;isaackl the idea being that your representation of this thing is manufactured for the needs of representation. it's what they call a didacticism, with no actual connection to reality. bad way to think.
1140012;1432107428;*;ben_vulpes ponders
1140013;1432107437;isaackl;Then gold will quite possibly win the runaway effect. The gold mining rate is a constant 1.5% or so a year, so post a few more reward halvings bitcoin has the advantage

1140017;1432107480;mircea_popescu;isaackl come up with the formula for bitcoin inflation, i'm curious.
1140018;1432107481;ben_vulpes;"this coordinate system is highly unportable, and it always ended up being an intermediate stage to some other coordinate system.  Thus this coordinate system has been exorcised and should be avoided in the future.  JPM 1-29-91" << i am actually growing to love software archaeology
1140019;1432107522;isaackl;mircea_popescu: OK, to connect it to reality. Sovereign wealth fund, has a lot of USD. Realises USG is shaky and wants to diversify. How do they decide how much to allocate to gold or bitcoin?
1140020;1432107525;mircea_popescu;ben_vulpes yup. cultural archeology is the superset, antrhopology being the application. it's what the wise do with their time.
1140021;1432107532;mircea_popescu;isaackl seriously, print out the formula.
1140022;1432107544;mircea_popescu;(it's not really that hard)
1140023;1432107554;isaackl;mirce_popescu: 50% mined between 2009 and first reward halving, halves after each reward halving
1140024;1432107565;mircea_popescu;nope.
1140025;1432107576;isaackl;What?
1140026;1432107576;ben_vulpes;my problem is finding the things that fit in my head
1140027;1432107584;mircea_popescu;that's not the formula.

1140031;1432107719;mircea_popescu;and now we read it out loud :
1140032;1432107733;ben_vulpes;this is ASSETTTTTS
1140033;1432107748;mircea_popescu;bitcoin inflation over an interval equals the mined coins over that interval divided by the average monetary mass during that interval plus the percent change over that interval.
1140034;1432107762;mircea_popescu;Estimated Percent Change: -2.76227 << that thing is the last term.
1140035;1432107779;mircea_popescu;bitcoin nominal inflation may be whatever it may be, but its REAL inflation is always zero.
1140036;1432107796;ben_vulpes;what is "real" inflation?
1140037;1432107807;mircea_popescu;obviously before bitcoin nobody even understood that there is ANOTHER kind of real inflation, and thus therefore the real inflation from before is actually yet another kind of nominal inflation
1140038;1432107810;mircea_popescu;ben_vulpes yes.
1140039;1432107825;isaackl;Because the mining rate is known in advance and already priced in?
1140040;1432107835;ben_vulpes;difference between what one expects the monetary base to do and what it's actually doing?
1140041;1432107838;mircea_popescu;anyway, all this given here to underscore the fact that this shit is really fucking complex, to the point of excluding most specialists, let alone amateurs.
1140042;1432107842;mircea_popescu;isaackl no. vice-versa
1140043;1432107847;mircea_popescu;because IT prices YOU in.

1140045;1432107898;mircea_popescu;i am just very old.
1140046;1432107972;isaackl;Anyway, all I was getting to is that in the long run, even gold is softer than bitcoin

1140072;1432108385;ben_vulpes;what's scaring people off (which is unimportant, but let's pretend for a moment) is the horrendous shitpile that the bitcoin source actually is.
1140073;1432108388;mircea_popescu;what's next, if you could make a bomber plane that could get through china's defenses then that'd increase demand for planes ?

1140076;1432108498;isaackl;To be clear, I wasn't proposing to make such a thing.

1140098;1432110012;assbot;Logged on 20-05-2015 07:23:40; ben_vulpes: a sensible btc business makes bitcoins for its owners
1140099;1432110020;isaackl;SDICE, BBET, etc
1140100;1432110071;isaackl;Gambling is rational if it's one of the rare games like poker where you can get an edge. Hard to design games like that, you need to convince the fish they can win too
1140101;1432110117;mircea_popescu;sdice was -ev
1140102;1432110156;isaackl;mircea_popescu: yeah. In which case you're basically selling entertainment
1140103;1432110162;davout;mircea_popescu: unless martingale1!!1
1140104;1432110171;mircea_popescu;davout o right you are :p
1140105;1432110193;davout;which goes back to convincing the fish they can get an edge
1140106;1432110240;davout;imo it's the only thing that makes the dice games profitable, the endless supply of martingale-chumps
1140107;1432110264;isaackl;Yeah. Poker is great at that, fishy play gets you the occasional exciting big win. Fishy play is -ev of course, but high variance
1140108;1432110320;isaackl;So on a table with 2 sharks and 6 fish, 2 fish will win a lot, the sharks and house will consistently make a little, and 4 fish will lose
1140109;1432110338;isaackl;Online poker eventually saw an accumulation of sharks and the fish left
1140110;1432110475;isaackl;And some fish just love to gamble. I used to do marketing for the mobile-slots chumpatron, humorously people pay real money but they can't cash out real money

1140125;1432110717;isaackl;My personal theory was it's similar psychology to RPGs, clicker games, even strategy games a little bit. You're constantly chasing advnatages which let you chase advantages, etc
1140126;1432110749;isaackl;So people playing slots aren't trying to win so they can buy stuff. They want to win so they get more gambling tokens

1140761;1432154581;ascii_field;hanbot: if it isn't on sks, it isn't really public is it
1140762;1432154581;hanbot;exactly
1140763;1432154581;hanbot;maybe this is the iceberg tip of some sort of process not really intended to be visible
1140764;1432154581;ascii_field;afaik the only possible point of crafting these -was- to disseminate them publicly as spurious copies of the real thing

1140766;1432155045;mircea_popescu;hanbot seems improbable.
1140767;1432155065;ascii_field;hanbot: and clearly the process, whatever it was, did not want to be found. but it does appear to consist of fucking with purported -public- keys and therefore intrinsically findable.

1140769;1432155139;mircea_popescu;Apocalyptic well, "totally broken". depends what you're trying to do and so on. having a known small factor is already breakage
1140770;1432155151;mircea_popescu;ie, you wouldn't use that key.
1140771;1432155171;ascii_field;given as the bulk of the samples consist of the owner's own moduli with every other 32-bit word doubled (overwriting its neighbour) - the amount of 'crafting' appears to be minimal. in this particular case (there were other breakable keys.)
1140772;1432155174;hanbot;hm.
1140773;1432155196;Apocalyptic;mircea_popescu, it is breakage in the sense it reduces the apparent security, the key may still be pretty much alright
1140774;1432155196;ascii_field;thing about small factors is that we have them here because the moduli are essentially random shots in the integer dark.
1140775;1432155210;ascii_field;how likely is 'all right' key when shooting at random ?
1140776;1432155210;Apocalyptic;(if intentionnaly made this way)
1140777;1432155222;mircea_popescu;i dun see this argument.
1140778;1432155229;mircea_popescu;anyway, you could just run a probabilistic test on it.
1140779;1432155232;Apocalyptic;mircea_popescu, ok, let's start again
1140780;1432155234;ascii_field;Apocalyptic: read mircea_popescu's article where litmus.py appears.
1140781;1432155267;mircea_popescu;!up Hasimir
1140782;1432155267;Apocalyptic;let's say I take the two secret primes of my present key
1140783;1432155269;mircea_popescu;go ahead
1140784;1432155276;mircea_popescu;Apocalyptic aha.
1140785;1432155296;Hasimir;well, let's see there's Rob Hansen's key
1140786;1432155298;Apocalyptic;I multiply then the modulus N by 3 (or any other small prime, the value doesn't matter)
1140787;1432155303;Hasimir;RSA flaw?
1140788;1432155311;ascii_field;Apocalyptic: except that this is not how it was done
1140789;1432155313;Hasimir;his key is DSA2 & El-Gamal
1140790;1432155318;Apocalyptic;I submit it to phuctor, its screams "Moduli factored !"
1140791;1432155325;ascii_field;Apocalyptic: bugger took every other 32-bit word and copied over neighbour.
1140792;1432155326;Apocalyptic;but the key is still as strong as my original
1140793;1432155335;mircea_popescu;Hasimir "Rob Hansen" doesn't appear on the page ?
1140794;1432155335;Apocalyptic; Apocalyptic: except that this is not how it was done // exactly
1140795;1432155348;Hasimir;no. 92  & 93
1140796;1432155363;Hasimir;in Stan's list of "we have your private keys"
1140797;1432155365;mircea_popescu;aha
1140798;1432155370;Apocalyptic;i'm just trying to show that finding a small factor is not inherently breaking the key
1140799;1432155371;mircea_popescu;lemme fish them out for you a sec.
1140800;1432155376;ascii_field;Hasimir: whos key is this
1140801;1432155387;ascii_field;Hasimir: we only see it here if it had one or more rsa subkeys.
1140802;1432155389;Hasimir;rjh@sixdemonbag
1140803;1432155392;mircea_popescu;Apocalyptic finding a small factor is not inherently breaking a specially crafted key that was made to have that one small factor, yes.
1140804;1432155396;mircea_popescu;this isn't the assumption here
1140805;1432155406;mircea_popescu;ascii_field ima get the key one sec.
1140806;1432155409;Hasimir;it has an rsa signing subkey
1140807;1432155415;ascii_field;Hasimir: there we go.
1140808;1432155419;ascii_field;so that'd be it
1140809;1432155420;Hasimir;but the rest of it isn't
1140810;1432155422;Apocalyptic;ascii_field, as the poeple whose key you're listing probably didn't craft it this way, it's very probable that it's further broken, yes
1140811;1432155429;mircea_popescu;Hasimir doh.
1140812;1432155434;mircea_popescu;well, it would be the rsa wouldn't it.
1140813;1432155439;ascii_field;Hasimir: we don't deal with the rest of it.
1140814;1432155451;Hasimir;which means no getting the private cert or decryption
1140815;1432155451;Apocalyptic; Apocalyptic finding a small factor is not inherently breaking a specially crafted key that was made to have that one small factor, yes. // this is all i was arguing :)
1140816;1432155465;ascii_field;the experiment specifically concerns moduli, not keys. a key contains zero or more rsa moduli
1140817;1432155466;Hasimir;ascii_field, just the signing subkey?
1140818;1432155483;mircea_popescu;Apocalyptic well sure, theoretical theory. but if you run a factorizing algo on any of the keys you'll see they break apart.
1140819;1432155500;mircea_popescu;!up ascii_field
1140820;1432155502;ascii_field;Apocalyptic: there is a reason why generating proper rsa keys is cpu-expensive
1140821;1432155507;Apocalyptic;I know
1140822;1432155528;Hasimir;ascii_field, then claiming to have derived the private key is a wee bit disingenuous
1140823;1432155539;Apocalyptic;and yes if found in the wild, the assumption you are making is a safe assumption
1140824;1432155549;ascii_field;barring some entirely unknown and very interesting number-theoretical result, the word-doubling is overwhelmingly likely to yield an 'easy' modulus.
1140825;1432155557;mircea_popescu;Hasimir wouldja quote the claim you speak of ?
1140826;1432155569;Hasimir;sure one tic
1140827;1432155586;Hasimir;"Are you on this list ? We probably have your private key"
1140828;1432155588;ascii_field;Hasimir: private key naturally would correspond to the phony key
1140829;1432155594;mircea_popescu;Hasimir so what's disingenuous ?
1140830;1432155633;Hasimir;alright, if it's not, what method did you use to crack el-gamal?
1140831;1432155635;ascii_field;and go apply pollard rho, and lenstra, you will have the private. you don't even need us for this
1140832;1432155642;ascii_field;Hasimir: we don't deal in el gamal!
1140833;1432155644;ascii_field;or dsa
1140834;1432155645;mircea_popescu;it's a rsa factorization service.
1140835;1432155653;ascii_field;or '22: proprietary reserved algo'
1140836;1432155656;Hasimir;which is the point
1140837;1432155657;ascii_field;(yes, lots of these. wtf)
1140838;1432155666;mircea_popescu;Hasimir i do not see this point.
1140839;1432155693;mircea_popescu;the way text works is not that reader is free to make whatever assumptions he wishes and it is the responsibility of the text to explicitly dispel them
1140840;1432155694;Hasimir;ok, let me see if I'm reading the article correctly
1140841;1432155709;mircea_popescu;the way text works is that the reader has the job of forming a mental image that does not contradict the text.
1140842;1432155726;Hasimir;you only deal with rsa, you only claim to have rsa priv keys, but you list dsa/elgamal keys as broken ...
1140843;1432155738;mircea_popescu;i dun see dsa/elgamal keys were listedf.
1140844;1432155753;ascii_field;mircea_popescu: he appears to be taking issue with interchangeable use of 'keys' and 'moduli'
1140845;1432155754;Hasimir;this one: 0x23806BE5D6B98E10
1140846;1432155762;mircea_popescu;in general, one's at liberty to create a Patented Leather Assymetric Key and give it his name
1140847;1432155771;mircea_popescu;if he also has a rsa key by the same name, he will be in the list of rsa keys.
1140848;1432155795;mircea_popescu;ascii_field except a modulus does not exist outside of a key.
1140849;1432155816;ascii_field;Hasimir: understand, someone can create a key containing an rsa modulus of the kind described here using a modified copy of your, e.g., el gamal, key
1140850;1432155820;ascii_field;and it will show on our list
1140851;1432155830;Hasimir;ah
1140852;1432155833;mircea_popescu;pgp has no way to enforce names
1140853;1432155840;Hasimir;true
1140854;1432155843;mircea_popescu;you can create a key for obama and sks will list "obama's" key.
1140855;1432155845;mircea_popescu;what's one to do ?
1140856;1432155860;Hasimir;as all the president@whitehouse.gov ones prove
1140857;1432155865;mircea_popescu;now, of that list, at least some are thoroughly broken
1140858;1432155881;mircea_popescu;two examples are given there, each with two moduli with 8-12 digit factos known
1140859;1432155885;mircea_popescu;some others are yet unknown
1140860;1432155889;ascii_field;Hasimir: the shenanigans exposed appear to have an intent which includes - but not necessarily limited to - passing off spurious rsa keys for various names
1140861;1432155916;Hasimir;which is why you need to specify the key ids, otherwise you're spreading unnecessary panic
1140862;1432155916;mircea_popescu;hence "probably". and hence http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=20-05-2015#1140223
1140863;1432155916;assbot;Logged on 20-05-2015 11:53:36; *: mircea_popescu underscores the ~probably~. it is not a certainly. not yet at least. moar uranium has to be mined first.
1140864;1432155936;ascii_field;Hasimir: so far each of the cases i have examined in detail had -at least one- legit rsa modulus in subkeys
1140865;1432155961;mircea_popescu;Hasimir you have read the paragraph at the beginning yes ?
1140866;1432155970;ascii_field;and the panic is entirely the work of the enemy, who is passing around the idiot strawman that 'rsa was broken. oh wait, no it wasn't! disregard the whole thing!'
1140867;1432155978;Hasimir;yes

1140880;1432156170;mircea_popescu;yes, as it happens, oct.
1140881;1432156179;Apocalyptic;aha
1140882;1432156182;mircea_popescu;Hasimir just put the pubkey in the box and it'll tell you if it has or hasn't
1140883;1432156227;ascii_field;i will be very surprised when a 'proper' pubkey that some fella actually has on his own box, fails the test
1140884;1432156228;mircea_popescu;ascii_field some that had only broken moduli, in pairs.
1140885;1432156258;ascii_field;mircea_popescu: quite a few. which is consistent with the 'random bits make terrible rsa moduli' thing.

1140899;1432156590;Hasimir;cool

1140901;1432156600;Hasimir;sqlite3 db full of keys ... ouch
1140902;1432156624;Hasimir;though probably better than the sks solution
1140903;1432156676;ascii_field;Hasimir: whole thing was ~2 days' work
1140904;1432156681;ascii_field;so not optimal by any measure
1140905;1432156720;Hasimir;yeah, you might want to look at the keybox (.kbx) format used in gpg 2.1, designed to improve lookup speed with larger keyrings
1140906;1432156750;Hasimir;though you'll lose all the v2 keys
1140907;1432156778;ascii_field;no thanks.
1140908;1432156788;Hasimir;but then we should probably lose them anyway

1140910;1432156820;Hasimir;ok, these weak ones you found, have you identified a common generation program?
1140911;1432156830;mircea_popescu;nope.
1140912;1432156838;mircea_popescu;they're not even all in the same class.
1140913;1432156843;Hasimir;and v2 keys == pgp 2.3 to pgp 2.6(i)
1140914;1432156845;mircea_popescu;at least two, maybe three different types so far
1140915;1432156868;Hasimir;do they all have subkeys or not?
1140916;1432156875;ascii_field;Hasimir: read carefully. we do not know where they came from. but the largest class we identified so far appears to consist of carefully crafted spurious keys, made with a particular transformation of original legit ones.
1140917;1432156875;mircea_popescu;all what ?
1140918;1432156902;Hasimir;well, that list 160 reads like regular posters to the enigmail mailing list
1140919;1432156908;Hasimir;or possibly gnupg-users
1140920;1432156912;mircea_popescu;tbh, someone has to explain this "subkeys" retardation to me sometime. fucking pseudohierarchy devoid of meaning.
1140921;1432156915;Hasimir;I recognise most of the names
1140922;1432156919;mircea_popescu;they're all keys. how you package them is irrelevant
1140923;1432156935;mircea_popescu;Hasimir i am aware.
1140924;1432157272;trinque;heh sqlite always comes up as "not fast" in conversation
1140925;1432157277;trinque;I wonder if anyone ever tests this hypothesis
1140926;1432157290;ascii_field;trinque: was going for 'simple' rather than 'fast'
1140927;1432157337;trinque;sure, I am saying I've personally never found sqlite3 to be slow
1140928;1432157364;trinque;probably comes with comparisons to key-value stores that do barely anything aside retrieve by key
1140929;1432157386;mircea_popescu;trinque seems it has issues wiht locking
1140930;1432157515;trinque;ah yeah I guess it's bad at concurrent writes; that's fair
1140931;1432157554;jurov;someone has to explain this "subkeys" retardation << guess mr.zimmermann overengineered it and then left to rot

1140973;1432160969;Apocalyptic;asciilifeform, somehow pgpdump refuses to print info about the invalid subkey, or at least I don't see the keyid referenced the way I see it for the master key and the signature packets
1140974;1432160988;Apocalyptic;I suppose it's the same as the master one though, so this situation can't happen since e is itself a prime

1141020;1432172071;bad_duck;Hi, maybe someone could help me here..? ( http://www.reddit.com/r/Bitcoin/comments/36p1i8/looking_for_some_data_about_time_between_blocks/ )  tl;dr -> I'm looking for some data about time between blocks (cannot rely on timestamps in blocks), if someone has some logs / know where to find this?  thx!
1141021;1432172425;funkenstein_;bad_duck, if you can't rely on the timestamps on the blocks what timestamps can you rely on?
1141022;1432172533;danielpbarron;data signed by WoT members
1141023;1432172563;funkenstein_;hehe good point
1141024;1432172584;danielpbarron;does debug.log record the date from the block? or the time on my computer when the block was relayed?
1141025;1432172631;bad_duck;danielpbarron | data signed by WoT members <-- I hope to find a "relyable" person, but yes I'll have to trust him
1141026;1432172660;bad_duck;danielpbarron: yes, I have this info in my debug.log but my node is only running for 1-2 months...
1141027;1432172684;danielpbarron;remember to copy it into a different location
1141028;1432172898;bad_duck;danielpbarron: anyway I want some more data so I'm looking for someone who is listening the network for a long time / has logs
1141029;1432172923;danielpbarron;i don't think debug.log would give you the info you want
1141030;1432173045;bad_duck;danielpbarron: dependd if the node is running for a long time, it has it after the initial sync (and some missing / wrong poing after downtime when resync / getting last blocks)
1141031;1432173103;danielpbarron;my log doesn't have this UpdateTip thing
1141032;1432173123;bad_duck;hmm, mine has, things like that :
1141033;1432173126;bad_duck;2015-05-21 01:28:34 UpdateTip: new best=00000....  height=357347  log2_work=82.81497  tx=69326602  date=2015-05-21 01:28:05

1141035;1432173133;danielpbarron;also, you can do just  grep UpdateTip .bitcoin/debug.log
1141036;1432173146;bad_duck;for the last 2 blocks, on the left my timestamp, on the right the timestamp in block
1141037;1432173265;bad_duck;but the node need to be connected / synched to get the "right" timestamp, during initial sync / update after downtime the timestamp on the left would likely be wrong
1141038;1432173290;danielpbarron;mine just has the date in the block (version 0.7.2 and 0.5.3.x)

1141334;1432180892;mircea_popescu;this, incidentally, is why idiot rawls and his "veil of ignorance" is so important for the "nordic system" ie, socialism re-emergent. it's not the direct pseudo-ethics it derps around with that's the core there. it's the proposition, unwarranted and offensive, that people have no more substance than replaceable parts, and that their connections in the graph do not exist.
1141335;1432180901;mircea_popescu;THIS is what that bullshit is selling, under a guise.
1141336;1432180916;asciilifeform;archaeologists tell us about, e.g., ancient minoan 'palace economies' where -everybody- had to go to the central cloth dispensary to get woven cloth where gurlz toiled in the weaving hall. but those who sat in the palaces may have pictured themselves at the 'stellar apex' but had nothing on modern idiotron. minoans did not, afaik, have to go to the palace to get fucked.

1141341;1432181009;mircea_popescu;trinque the socialist state is necessarily intellectually vacuous

1141345;1432181031;decimation;yeah but as trinque pointed out earlier, the socialist state has the advantage of 'cheap coordination'
1141346;1432181042;mircea_popescu;at the cost of necessary futility, yes.
1141347;1432181043;decimation;it's really easy to sell the idea that the state will save you

1141349;1432181070;mircea_popescu;the choice is then settled by... whether you can afford the first.

1141365;1432181283;asciilifeform;but specifically the 'you, yes you, -could- be a leprous beggar!' thing

1141798;1432208772;gabriel_laddel;mircea_popescu: im not going to go into how "Most ideas humans would like to communicate using the computer are quite simple." is both factually incorrect and a very poor premise. << I didn't see this prior to our conversation, courtesy of not paying my bills. This is actually the crux of it, so let's revisit. You've publicly stated something to th
1141799;1432208772;gabriel_laddel;e effect of "linux devs are idiots and I'd like a judiciously defaulted gentoo please". The question is, at what point does this become something that you (or others ben_vulpes, mod6, asciilifeform etc have already wasted time derping with gentoo) would pay for? People pay for (what they see as) quality software - sublime text makes money, as does
1141800;1432208772;gabriel_laddel;Intellij. The problem with these (ALGOL based) businesses is that their organizations ossify because of the sheer number of people that must get involved in any sort of "automation of programming". This is inescapable if you choose to use ALGOL. I realize that this isn't a result you believe exists, but reality doesn't care. Aside from software dev
1141801;1432208772;gabriel_laddel;s, industrial chemists, architects, research physicists etc would like to have a plug-and-play solution for going about their work. There is money to be made here. Afaik the only way to get there is: 1. revert to paper 2. teach *everyone* what an AST is, choose a language, add AST traversal mechanisms and write *everything* in it (this will continu
1141802;1432208772;gabriel_laddel;ally burn some of Earth's brighter minds, someone needs to think about the gnarly parser semantics when the language's syntax is updated - my experience is that you can't pay people to care) 3. use lisp. People have already tried 1 & 2, and the result is inevitably that even if they make money (Mathematica, Microsoft, Oracle...) the foundations of
1141803;1432208772;gabriel_laddel;shit catch up with them and we end up where we are today - nothing works and everyone insists that it does because they've bought into a lie. As for "is both factually incorrect and a very poor premise", thank you, will update.
1141804;1432208787;gabriel_laddel;mircea_popescu: if you're a capitalist everything exists << this makes no sense to me.
1141805;1432208787;gabriel_laddel;mircea_popescu thinks gabriel and janna would make a perfect couple. << I'm almost insulted.
1141806;1432208879;mircea_popescu;lol but why ? she wouldn't let you get evicted.
1141807;1432208983;mircea_popescu;the problem with your theory is exactly that : it's a theory. life on earth is emergent pattern in chaos, not sensible arrangement.
1141808;1432209019;chetty;or chaos emerging from a pattern
1141809;1432209029;mircea_popescu;hehe
1141810;1432209076;mircea_popescu;now, the reason the quote is factually incorrect is pure godel. what you imagine as "simple" is only simple because you're using an unsimple language. otherwise, if you face the problem directly, it's very complex.
1141811;1432209099;mircea_popescu;moreover, and this is the important part, it's a poor premise because only idiots start their stuff with "most people"
1141812;1432209115;mircea_popescu;forget most people. you've not even made something and are already blunting it ? make it be good first, most people after.
1141813;1432209165;chetty;no such thing as 'most people'
1141814;1432209184;mircea_popescu;and as to "if you're a capitalist everything exists" - it's a subtle point, but in order for one to be a capitalist, the requisite premise is "that which is is and necesarily is, and that which is not is not and necessarily is not", ie, parmenides.
1141815;1432209203;mircea_popescu;so no, for a capitalist it is eminently impossible for something to not be and then come into being.
1141816;1432209221;mircea_popescu;only discoveries. no inventions.

1141891;1432213640;asciilifeform;i'm not certain this is an accident. folks who are good at business, know better than to try selling lisp to mass market

1141893;1432213698;asciilifeform;possibly

1142312;1432246581;jurov;what if the answer is no, keyserver can't ever produce valid sig in this case?
1142313;1432246582;ascii_field;'perhaps it fell from the moon'
1142314;1432246589;trinque;not "this is why this is bullshit"
1142315;1432246626;jurov;Hasimir, how can keyserver produce signatures of anything?
1142316;1432246635;jurov;*valid* ones
1142317;1432246660;Hasimir;jurov, it can't, but if the sig was already there, but other data got mangled, it might account for some things
1142318;1432246670;jurov;what things?
1142319;1432246691;trinque;if a factored subkey has a sig from the master key wtf
1142320;1432246691;Hasimir;the lack of data indicating cipher prefs on a key
1142321;1432246700;ascii_field;and why would a 'bug' affect ONLY (!!!) 1) moduli 2) m^d mod n 3) exponent, which is ALWAYS 281479271743489 after the transformation, regardless of what it originally was 3) ALL FIELDS ARE CORRECTLY SIZED

1142323;1432246706;trinque;I'm an idiot and I understand that much

1142326;1432246796;ascii_field;ty trinque.
1142327;1432246815;jurov;Hasimir, so I take some key, mangle "data indicating cipher prefs" and whatnot, and viola, valid signature without original key's owner knowledge?
1142328;1432246840;Hasimir;no idea
1142329;1432246846;ascii_field;and we are to believe that this happens by accident, with no other bits flipped. ever.
1142330;1432246893;Hasimir;I never claimed to have answers, but you guys are locked into the "it must be a conspiracy" mindset and assuming any criticism is part of the conspiracy
1142331;1432246917;ascii_field;incidentally, i just walked the totality of sks db looking for -all- rsa keys with pub-exponents equal to 281479271743489.
1142332;1432246931;ascii_field;they are -all- in the set from the heuristic published on mircea_popescu's www.
1142333;1432246940;jurov;Hasimir: you're too willing not to think about it and handwave it away
1142334;1432246946;Hasimir;the weird pattern thing?
1142335;1432246969;ascii_field;Hasimir: yes. you can write a proggy to create this type of key from any rsa pubkey you like.
1142336;1432246969;Hasimir;jurov, not so, if that were the case I wouldn't be here discussing it
1142337;1432246978;ascii_field;aaactually
1142338;1432247001;ascii_field;Hasimir: please realize that so far you are setting off every possible alarm in my head, 'disinfo agent'
1142339;1432247015;trinque;incidentally I don't recall anyone here making specific claims about who is behind this
1142340;1432247024;ascii_field;Hasimir: also realize that we are talking about an experiment which -any- interested reader, at this point, could replicate.
1142341;1432247030;ascii_field;data is public. the code, largely - also public.
1142342;1432247033;Hasimir;trinque, except for the BND ...
1142343;1432247060;ascii_field;BND is just a random guess of mine at present, based on the de pirate party thing
1142344;1432247070;Hasimir;ok
1142345;1432247109;ascii_field;but there are human fingerprints on it. take the 'bug' or 'cosmic ray' hypothesis to a home for retarded folks. nobody here is dumb enough to fall for it.
1142346;1432247132;ascii_field;this goes for -all- the agents who read the logs.
1142347;1432247160;Hasimir;alright, assume you're right then, what do they gain by doing this in a way that can be found by regular(-ish) geeks?
1142348;1432247170;trinque;the gain may have already been had
1142349;1432247177;trinque;who knows
1142350;1432247183;ascii_field;Hasimir: look when it was done, and when found
1142351;1432247187;Hasimir;in which case the target is on that list
1142352;1432247193;ascii_field;we have a skeleton here, not fresh corpse
1142353;1432247204;Hasimir;so 2010-11
1142354;1432247208;Hasimir;or so
1142355;1432247210;ascii_field;Hasimir: the target is almost certainly -not- on the list

1142358;1432247237;Hasimir;ah, of course ...
1142359;1432247254;Hasimir;hrm ...
1142360;1432247274;Hasimir;so someone who already had all those keys in their keyring ...
1142361;1432247303;ascii_field;Hasimir: the genuine keys, you mean ?
1142362;1432247304;Hasimir;or at least all the names ...
1142363;1432247308;Hasimir;yeah
1142364;1432247333;ascii_field;for all we know, it is possible that on some pgp client the faux keys could replace the genuine ones if user ever 'synced' from sks
1142365;1432247363;ascii_field;but this is secondary.
1142366;1432247542;ascii_field;i very much get what the agents are trying to achieve, yes.
1142367;1432247557;ascii_field;a soft fecal matter consensus that 'there is nothing worth looking into here, move along'
1142368;1432247626;Hasimir;I think there's something worth looking into it until an answer is confirmed
1142369;1432247642;ascii_field;that's more like it.
1142370;1432247691;Hasimir;you realise that's not a change of attitude, right?
1142371;1432247765;Hasimir;though logic and healthy skepticism requires questioning myself just as much, if not more so, than anyone else ...

1142390;1432248077;ascii_field;Hasimir: incidentally, zimmerman is not on the list because he is an nsa asset in good standing. the 'silent circle' and multi-coloured phones idiocies are more than ample proof of this

1142417;1432248655;trinque;you have to feed him your public key first, and it checks that against what assbot knows about
1142418;1432248663;Hasimir;ah, that explains why it can't be done with gpg -sa (a pity, that's a great way to avoid encoding errors)
1142419;1432248674;trinque;I synced over keys from assbot once, but am not running it via cron yet

1142422;1432248734;Hasimir;all it would take would be the same as allowing it to hash any pgp message
1142423;1432248757;Hasimir;the output looks the same, but with -sa it's not encrypted, just signed

1142665;1432257357;asciilifeform;mircea_popescu: all the 10-digiters i found so far were, iirc, composite
1142666;1432257364;gavmatic;thanks
1142667;1432257381;asciilifeform;so the small-primes thing isn't nonsense off the bat
1142668;1432257387;BingoBoingo;gavmatic: I saw you've done some bitcoin news sort of posts on your blog
1142669;1432257390;asciilifeform;but the 'yeah we knew all this' is a typical crock'o'shit, yes
1142670;1432257399;mircea_popescu;asciilifeform how composite ? i clearly recall there being primes longer
1142671;1432257400;mircea_popescu;brb
1142672;1432257417;gavmatic;yes i've submitted some stuff

1142680;1432257481;asciilifeform;mircea_popescu: none of it surprises, random n will normally have many small primefactors
1142681;1432257484;mircea_popescu;now, 7 digit thing is prime. eminently not in the first 1k

1142702;1432257744;mircea_popescu;jurov on it.
1142703;1432257744;asciilifeform;mircea_popescu: Apocalyptic started out by suggesting - correctly - that having, e.g., 3 - as factor - was not proof of weakness by itself, because one could take mircea_popescu's modulus, multiply by 3
1142704;1432257755;mircea_popescu;asciilifeform yes. and the implication i read was "a small prime AND ONLY THAT SMALL PRIME"
1142705;1432257760;asciilifeform;but this was, presumably, before he finished reading and learned -why- 3 was a factor
1142706;1432257764;mircea_popescu;otherwise i have nfi why what the guy said is worth saying
1142707;1432257779;asciilifeform;iirc he 'shot first before asking questions'

1142768;1432259344;mircea_popescu;i came here for an argument! this is just contradiction, an automated gainsaying of everything the op says!

1142808;1432259985;BingoBoingo;asciilifeform: It's what some derps quoted seems to suggest. Factoring dat subkey doesn't really give priv key
1142809;1432259985;asciilifeform;BingoBoingo: depends which subkey, of who
1142810;1432259985;asciilifeform;some of these folks have only one subkey; others - two; etc
1142811;1432259985;mircea_popescu;but on its face, the notion that someone would even be vaguely relevant for crypto and NOT be in the wot at all is so ridiculous as to defy the mind.
1142812;1432259985;BingoBoingo;Suggestion: For every broken moduli Phuctor signs a message "lol, I suck cocks" from factored keys
1142813;1432259985;mircea_popescu;BingoBoingo the thing is, some keys consist entirely of two moduli, both of which were factored.
1142814;1432259985;BingoBoingo;mircea_popescu: Which is the value of Phuctor signing a sucks cocks message
1142815;1432259985;mircea_popescu;and the problem with that suggestion is that well, much more interesting to spend computational resources to enlarge the breach atm, than to go in depth.
1142816;1432259985;mircea_popescu;time enough to do that once the whole keyset's been combed
1142817;1432259985;Hasimir;depends on which wot really, I can think of one or two that would know the math well enough, but are not involved in bitcoin at all (the pgp wot, however, is another matter)

1142819;1432260003;mircea_popescu;of course, any of these twerps peanut-gallery-ing around COULD use their time to do any of the useful things obviously allowed by phuctor having, generously and very uncharacteristically for THEIR FIELD published a lot of raw results

1142821;1432260027;mircea_popescu;Hasimir if it can't interoperate with assbot's it doesn't matter.
1142822;1432260030;BingoBoingo;Well with factors message signing shouldn't be too much CPU mathing, but I guess if at this rate ~98 keys sign "lol I suck cocks" at the end of sks dump processing makes better Trilema post

1143013;1432263537;BingoBoingo; mircea_popescu: some of the 'crazy shit stick' thing is a result of u.s. folks -forbidden- to carry. the stick grows 'tumours' from being kept in safe anyway << Fading fast, apparently even I with paper work could carry "crazy shit stick"
1143014;1432263539;asciilifeform;u.s. small arms enthusiasts have separate category in their literature called 'carry'
1143015;1432263563;asciilifeform;BingoBoingo: ianal, but in u.s. locales rich in orcs, 'carry' is normally forbidden
1143016;1432263581;Vexual;when i read carry i imagine a kei truck
1143017;1432263582;BingoBoingo; a humble handgun and a rifle for sport << FLip that Rifle for carry and pistol for sport
1143018;1432263592;cazalla;Hasimir, not convinced it was him or that he at least acted alone.. what sort of guy autistic retard like him could kill 35 people with such precision
1143019;1432263619;asciilifeform;BingoBoingo: even in 'carry states', the list of public locations where such is forbidden, is quite long.
1143020;1432263620;mircea_popescu;cazalla>  i'd much rather put 2 in their chest and compost em << why ? you're supposed to shoot out the knees/shoulders, and why wouldn't you ?
1143021;1432263624;BingoBoingo;asciilifeform: Really only holds when locales in question are california and "New York"
1143022;1432263637;Hasimir;remember that those ppl weren't used to a world where guns were common enough to worry about
1143023;1432263643;cazalla;mircea_popescu, how would i know what to put what where when we can't have weapons here to begin with :\
1143024;1432263653;mircea_popescu;and now we come full circle to the problem
1143025;1432263655;mircea_popescu;yes, tumours.
1143026;1432263663;mircea_popescu;not only on the gun. on the world too.
1143027;1432263670;Hasimir;and I imagine it's much like the more recent massacre in Norway
1143028;1432263683;Vexual;guns were very much more common here before howards decree
1143029;1432263688;Hasimir;with that other retard ... what was his name?

1143390;1432277392;gabriel_laddel;*: BingoBoingo finds most confusing about gabriel_laddel that he would suppose people pay for *nix'en  + asciilifeform: i must confess that i personally would not pay -anything- for a unix of any description whatsoever. + mircea_popescu: i still don't see the money part. this is art, at best. + asciilifeform: BingoBoingo: the way i understand, he t

1143392;1432277398;BingoBoingo;BESERKER!!!
1143393;1432277398;gabriel_laddel;^ It appears that I should properly make the business case. If the unix in question had a sane substitute for portage (clearly specified set of systems guaranteed to build for a specified set of versions, no cyclic dependencies when you try to enable the USE flag for docs globally, sane CLOS structuring of the systems, `build' builds, `test' tests
1143394;1432277398;gabriel_laddel;etc), you wouldn't shell over $100 for it? You've already advertised spending a week(!) setting up a gentoo. ben_vulpes wasted at least an hour trying to figure out what the hell portage overlays do even. mod6 burnt god knows how long writing an (unfinished) gentoo install guide. How little is everyone's time worth? My point is not that Masamune wi
1143395;1432277399;gabriel_laddel;ll solve these exact problems and cost $100 dollars - it won't. My point /is/ that the notion there couldn't possibly be a unix worth paying for is absurd.
1143396;1432277404;gabriel_laddel;I'm not planning on selling Masamune. It will be free and stocked with niceties. Where I do plan to make money is on (source-included) extensions, which amounts to contracting gigs setting up intricate lessons for large companies, militaries, private schools and homeschoolers. Aside from this, various products I'd like to make and sell: a CL only I

1143398;1432277404;gabriel_laddel; real time, a plug-and-play solution for doing research for chemists, physicists and mathematicians. Some people are asking the right questions (http://chemistry.stackexchange.com/questions/27246/in-which-country-is-it-allowed-to-practice-non-clandestine-amateur-chemistry, http://chemistry.stackexchange.com/questions/18791/why-isnt-organic-chemistr

I see no reason I can't sell computers pre-loaded with Masamune. Frankly, the marketing for all these companies sucks and I don't think it'll be terribly difficult to do far better.
1143400;1432277464;gabriel_laddel;To those who would say "Oh you can't possibly sell a 3D CLIM, no one needs that" I will note that we *know* the Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory (Weapons and Complex Integration) built VisIt on top of OpenGL. They accept it as a given. USG doesn't want to win wars, but I'm willing to bet that someone on Earth does. One easy way to free up eng

1143413;1432277663;mircea_popescu;mkay. lemme explain something about markets to you. the sun is infinitely valuable, to the exclusion of all else. nobody (tm) would consider paying for it, and in no case would they pay anything close to fair value (why this is so should be thermodynamically obvious). meanwhile, ipads have no utility and go for hundreds by the million. on top of them, jackpot machine simulations sell for more $$$.
1143414;1432277688;mircea_popescu;the idea here being that people wouldn't pay for a sane os for the same reason they won't payfor the sun.

1143419;1432277844;gabriel_laddel;mircea_popescu: okay
1143420;1432277890;gabriel_laddel;people buy industrial chemicals, do they not?

1143423;1432277968;mircea_popescu;as discussed in my example.
1143424;1432277981;mircea_popescu;people do buy chemicals, but they don't buy "chemistry"
1143425;1432277989;mircea_popescu;if th efield had needed such a thing, it wouldn't exist at all.

1143438;1432278338;gabriel_laddel;also, people buy chemistry classes
1143439;1432278358;mircea_popescu;yes, they buy classes, and no hyperchem lite is not Chemistry.
1143440;1432278375;mircea_popescu;but if your thing needs classes you conceivably failed by your own criteria.
1143441;1432278393;BingoBoingo;H2F, H2S04, and Urushiol are all very different very dangerous problems
1143442;1432278459;gabriel_laddel;I don't understand your argument here - you're saying that no one would pay for a working portage because people don't buy "chemistry"?
1143443;1432278501;mircea_popescu;among other things, i am saying that people only move to america if it's free. if it's not free they stay home.
1143444;1432278515;BingoBoingo;gabriel_laddel: Nah, because people do pay for chemistry. Just the paid parts f chemistry have no portage analogues

1143453;1432278681;mircea_popescu;the spanish invented the new world mostly to make the dutch (and their later english colony) richer for it. etc.
1143454;1432278681;gabriel_laddel;well that's the game isn't it?
1143455;1432278687;BingoBoingo;Punch trees, get wood
1143456;1432278699;mircea_popescu;gabriel_laddel that is a game for much older and richer folk than you, to create a new world.
1143457;1432278711;mircea_popescu;which is exactly the full blown version of my original doubts.

1143596;1432303829;jurov;what went into -RELEASE

1143598;1432303877;mod6;Ok, I can certainly manage coming up with a list of everything that went into -RELEASE.  And probably a handfull of others that didn't.
1143599;1432303903;mod6;for instance, 'auto' is in there a bunch of times, but only one version obv. made it in.
1143600;1432303910;jurov;well, you can post it right to the list
1143601;1432303947;mod6;Anyway, np.  I'll work on it.
1143602;1432304028;mod6;so with "based on" ... am i undstanding that correctly that column is a link (pointer) to it's previous version?

1143606;1432304055;assbot;AMAZING COMPANY!
1143607;1432304071;jurov;mod6 i was thinking just a version name for both columns
1143608;1432304114;jurov;links can be generated but imo they are not needed
1143609;1432304157;mod6;ok.
1143610;1432304186;jurov;do we have a link for '0.5.3-chicken' anyway?
1143611;1432304197;jurov;that's what most of the patches would be based on
1143612;1432304246;mod6;yeah, the url is: http://thebitcoin.foundation/chicken.tar.gz
1143613;1432304306;jurov;heh ok
1143614;1432304307;jurov;or to the lxr source browser
1143615;1432304510;mod6;oh, now... no we don't have a link to that thing.  what is it anyway, i can't recall.

1143623;1432304687;jurov;you can use the latter link
1143624;1432304687;jurov;should be always our newest release

1143632;1432304902;asciilifeform;;;later tell mircea_popescu aaaand somehow '19' turned into '18' !?! (i do have a db backup, so if this is enemy action they can go fuck themselves.)
1143633;1432304902;gribble;The operation succeeded.
1143634;1432304960;asciilifeform;incidentally, now more than ever is the time to set up an sks server under our control. because sks is our ultimate 'backup'
1143635;1432304980;asciilifeform;and the pressure on sks server keepers to start removing things will be turned on, yes.

1143637;1432305045;jurov;yes
1143638;1432305093;asciilifeform;aaaactually my understanding is that one of the 19 got requeued, which 'un-broke' it. say hello to our first annoying bug.

1143643;1432305270;asciilifeform;jurov: the thing has no lisp or anything else interesting in it
1143644;1432305296;jurov;dunno where i got the notion from
1143645;1432305309;asciilifeform;jurov: and i will point out that it is quite impossible to build a guaranteed power-cycle-immune anything on a standard x86 pc, which doesn't even have a powerfail interrupt
1143646;1432305335;jurov;i'm not talking about immunity. only restartability
1143647;1432305347;asciilifeform;(just getting atomic writes (sort-of) on such a box requires disk controller with battery compartment)
1143648;1432305373;asciilifeform;jurov: the submission thing is a hastily-written script.

1143654;1432306676;asciilifeform;jurov: and yes, they are typically 'best practices' retarded - e.g., 'whitening' etc
1143655;1432306711;decimation;part of the problem is as ascii has identified - you really want every part to be inspectible by the end user
1143656;1432306736;decimation;the only other method I can think that is reasonably acceptable in this way is radiactive decay
1143657;1432306777;asciilifeform;apparently i can discuss my designs all i want without fear of being 'scooped' because 'everybody' thinks i'm entirely batshit.
1143658;1432306822;asciilifeform;no one - certainly not 'hackernews' imbeciles who ship their hardware with winblows drivers because 'consumer has come to expect' - give a flying fuck about auditability, etc.

1143664;1432306983;decimation;soon the hunter 'comes to expect'
1143665;1432306983;asciilifeform;for one thing, the material, well... decays. at predictable rate.
1143666;1432306983;decimation;heh yeah.
1143667;1432306983;asciilifeform;for another, the process of geiger tube going off is rf-noisy
1143668;1432306983;decimation;that's true, it is
1143669;1432306983;asciilifeform;tube also wears out very quickly
1143670;1432306983;decimation;that I didn't know
1143671;1432306983;asciilifeform;that is really the main reason i do not use geiger for rng personally
1143672;1432306983;decimation;oh yeah that sucks
1143673;1432306988;asciilifeform;it wears out in the same way as a fluorescent light bulb does
1143674;1432307003;asciilifeform;filament 'sputters' onto the walls
1143675;1432307022;asciilifeform;in the case of geiger tube, the fill gas is also 'poisoned' by said process, iirc
1143676;1432307044;decimation;yeah that makes sense
1143677;1432307055;asciilifeform;phun phakt: virtually no one is still making geiger tubes commercially
1143678;1432307059;decimation;tubes just don't do well with gaseous filling
1143679;1432307073;decimation;no my understanding is that folks are 'recycling' old soviet tubes mainly
1143680;1432307074;asciilifeform;almost entire world is relying on the - finite and mostly russian - cold war supplies
1143681;1432307076;asciilifeform;aha
1143682;1432307090;decimation;which probably have some variation themselves
1143683;1432307101;asciilifeform;geiger tubes are no more difficult to make than light bulbs, but someone has to -do- it

1143689;1432307213;asciilifeform;Apocalyptic: all of the ones discussed thus far.
1143690;1432307228;asciilifeform;why - remains unknown
1143691;1432307235;Apocalyptic;asciilifeform, If I get some time I will, it requires a more carefull analysis that it may seem
1143692;1432307319;Apocalyptic;asciilifeform, even the HPA's invalid subkey ? I thought pgpdump showed me e = 65537
1143693;1432307329;asciilifeform;Apocalyptic: at present, we have sufficient info to birth these on demand from legit keys. but we do not know the magic trick which yields decryption (it does not necessarily take the shape of a private key! and may not even -exist- for every possible starting legit key)

1143699;1432307980;Apocalyptic;asciilifeform, by the way do you have any explanation as to why pgpdump skips the KeyID field on invalid subkeys ?
1143700;1432307998;asciilifeform;Apocalyptic: not at present. will probably end up spending some quality time with the sourc
1143701;1432307999;asciilifeform;e
1143702;1432308061;asciilifeform;incidentally, now is a good time to mention the fact that sks also contains a great many keys which were too malformed to even attempt phuctoring
1143703;1432308097;asciilifeform;(and they make pgpdump unhappy, in various ways, yes.)
1143704;1432308225;Apocalyptic;quite amusing that 281479271743489 has 65537 as one of its 3 prime factors, those cosmic rays have a sense of humour
1143705;1432308231;asciilifeform;aha.

1144168;1432362705;mircea_popescu;cazalla so tl;dr : ver scammed okcoin into paying for a domain name, which is as we all know NEVER worth any money. okcoin got out of original depry phase after 3 months through eithry smarting up or running out of cash.
1144169;1432362718;mircea_popescu;cripplefight/bitchfest as to what "should be" ensues.

1144173;1432363047;cazalla;mircea_popescu, rented it from ver.. i dunno about worthless though, most of the bitsuffix and prefixcoin sites yes but i'd think bitcoin.com has some value for just type ins if just that
1144174;1432363078;cazalla;they never buy but if they do, it's in installments which they inevitably don't pay.. like btc.com
1144175;1432363120;mircea_popescu;cazalla think about it. the typeins are by definition idiots.
1144176;1432363126;mircea_popescu;i'd pay to be hidden from them.
1144177;1432363152;cazalla;who else doesn't block ads or some pay per install type shit?
1144178;1432363187;cazalla;anyway speaking of domains.. if anyone wants bitcoinprivilege.com, it expires in a few days and imma let it drop (had my fun)
1144179;1432363260;mircea_popescu;i think this is the best thing to do - get a domain, have some lulz, let it drop, idiot "vultures" registe rit because WOW WAS USED!11 is VALUABLE!!1

1144186;1432363851;gabriel_laddel;just (print some-sexpr wotnet-stream) and (read wotnet-stream) all the way
1144187;1432363888;gabriel_laddel;trinque: what I'd do is try to land a client that gives no shits about masamune, but needs something it can do << I plan on approaching both. But yes, to restrict oneself to those who Lisp is braindamaged - people who know nothing about computer programming notice when software works well and will happily pay for something that doesn't break, get h
1144188;1432363888;gabriel_laddel;acked etc.
1144189;1432363966;gabriel_laddel;ben_vulpes:  ben_vulpes in particular it's unclear to me how wise the "licenses" angle is for a serenissima derivative. while i declined to anull IP when diametric asked earlier, i am very very far from any sort of belief that the current model of that stack of stupidity has any sort of hope for survival. << i figured (perhaps stupi
1144190;1432363966;gabriel_laddel;dly) that IP would take the form of gpg signatures on "i will not send this code around to anyone else", unenforceable just like the rest of the gpg contracts << Correct.
1144191;1432363974;gabriel_laddel;ben_vulpes: y'can't, i know. << oh I wouldn't say that.
1144192;1432363983;ben_vulpes;oh you solved drm?
1144193;1432363997;gabriel_laddel;Nope, just don't sell to people who share your bits
1144194;1432364016;ben_vulpes;iirc that conversation carried the context of hard guarantees.
1144195;1432364018;gabriel_laddel;the DRM crowd wants is both ways - they want to sell to everyone and to have them not be able to share it
1144196;1432364035;ben_vulpes;'tis an honor and honesty thing.
1144197;1432364040;gabriel_laddel;yeah
1144198;1432364057;mircea_popescu;interesting point this. yes the drm crowd wants contradictory things
1144199;1432364068;mircea_popescu;not persuaded taking that away is enough to fix drm tho
1144200;1432364083;gabriel_laddel;I don't know how to get a hard guarantee, so don't. It becomes a "state secret" sort of situation at that point.
1144201;1432364086;ben_vulpes;is drm actually implementable?
1144202;1432364104;ben_vulpes;gabriel_laddel: that's where i land
1144203;1432364172;gabriel_laddel;The problem with the DRM crowd is that nothing they have is valuable enough for someone to give a damn about maintaining the relationship.
1144204;1432364204;mircea_popescu;this is also a point. amusingly enough, trilema makes more money than the mean of web properties, notwithstanding the fact that it's enforced very laxily.
1144205;1432364213;gabriel_laddel;heh
1144206;1432364220;mircea_popescu;but it isn't actually enough for to pay for me to be doing it.
1144207;1432364280;mircea_popescu;on the oher hand, i guess i also would never starve.
1144208;1432364374;mircea_popescu;the problem you have, however, is one of externalities. say A, B and C are your customers, and yes for them giving your stuff away is -ev if you know about it.
1144209;1432364390;mircea_popescu;except if D proposes to get it for half price and not tell you, they are now +ev
1144210;1432364399;mircea_popescu;and you can't find out, because they all deny.
1144211;1432364417;mircea_popescu;and from D it goes to E and soon enough it's free, at which point everyone loses the -ev counter-incentive.
1144212;1432364444;mircea_popescu;traditionally this is solved with watermarking, but that only works on idiots and catpictures. you can't watermark code.
1144213;1432364458;gabriel_laddel;^ actually...
1144214;1432364463;mircea_popescu;(i suppose you could, if you were very devious
1144215;1432364478;mircea_popescu;name a class HerpyClass in one version and Herpy_Class  in another
1144216;1432364484;mircea_popescu;but this is too fucking laborious.
1144217;1432364520;mircea_popescu;of course you could use a "32 char hash" convention for all your entities
1144218;1432364523;mircea_popescu;then just alter the salt.
1144219;1432364524;mircea_popescu;hm.
1144220;1432364527;mircea_popescu;wow.
1144221;1432364542;mircea_popescu;ya you CAN actually watermark code.
1144222;1432364545;mircea_popescu;who knew.
1144223;1432364549;gabriel_laddel;me
1144224;1432364563;mircea_popescu;course, they could just edit the names to some random hash of their own.
1144225;1432364601;mircea_popescu;which may be more work than they're willing to put into it, but still, would kill your drm like it kills that stupid "sound security" thing we discussed a coupla weeksa ago
1144226;1432364629;gabriel_laddel;we don't need DRM, we just need to know who leaked which code
1144227;1432364639;mircea_popescu;you woukdn't tho.
1144228;1432364650;mircea_popescu;before i leak it i just hash all entity names with a "fuck gabby" salt
1144229;1432364672;gabriel_laddel;how do you know how I've watermarked it?
1144230;1432364681;mircea_popescu;i can see the 32 bit hash names.
1144231;1432364701;gabriel_laddel;This isn't the only way to go about watermarking code though.
1144232;1432364720;gabriel_laddel;yes, someone may discover your watermark
1144233;1432364725;mircea_popescu;but code being by its nature code, i have a firm guarantee that i can wipe your watermark out.
1144234;1432364740;mircea_popescu;by transforming everything that's not required by the machine.
1144235;1432364775;mircea_popescu;all names hashed, all spaces removed, etc.
1144236;1432364783;mircea_popescu;(comments count as spaces)
1144237;1432364793;gabriel_laddel;and people are going to download and use this?
1144238;1432364795;mircea_popescu;this is a drastically degraded version ofthe code tho, i readily grant
1144239;1432364805;gabriel_laddel;rather than paying for my version?
1144240;1432364805;mircea_popescu;yeah, the result is not worthless.
1144241;1432364831;mircea_popescu;yeah, the result is not worthless. << i mean, the result of this convo, re code watermarking, even if notperfect is still not worthless.
1144242;1432364838;ben_vulpes;it verges on obfuscation, and at that point one may as well deliver a binary for all the "fits in head"ness it'll have.
1144243;1432364861;gabriel_laddel;if some bastardized version of our shared bits shows up a torrents site I can maintain your account with me accordingly
1144244;1432364865;ben_vulpes;i may be insane but i think a large fraction of the value in delivered code is that others can read and mod it.
1144245;1432364872;gabriel_laddel;^ yep
1144246;1432364885;ben_vulpes;but it would be trivial to change one random symbol name per client license
1144247;1432364893;ben_vulpes;or several, but unique across clients
1144248;1432364900;ben_vulpes;and then they have the problem of "what was it before"
1144249;1432364907;mircea_popescu;ben_vulpes he would just build a list of things to change and change them all.
1144250;1432364909;gabriel_laddel;sure, start there when selling to idiots, for big contracts scale accordingly

1144257;1432364967;mircea_popescu;and then just make a hash and interpret it as bitflips over that list
1144258;1432364970;ben_vulpes;you mean everywhere?
1144259;1432364973;mircea_popescu;yes.
1144260;1432364989;mircea_popescu;bit 1 : presence or absence of space after dot at position x y
1144261;1432364991;ben_vulpes;sure, if it's worth your time to resell the thing after writing a transform for it...
1144262;1432365004;mircea_popescu;bit 2 : name of function x
1144263;1432365006;mircea_popescu;on it goes.
1144264;1432365038;mircea_popescu;then as a licensee you DONT know what you need to transform to wipe the watermark, so you have to transform... "everything". which results in a turd, which as he says, who the fuck will want that.
1144265;1432365076;ben_vulpes;anyways, this is sort of a 'club' for code. it'd never stop a smart or determined attacker, but it renders the cost of the heist somewhat higher than i warrant many would pay.
1144266;1432365081;mircea_popescu;seems the sort of meta-prograsmming task for which lisp was invented anyway. keep your code as a s-expr of the code you deliver.

1144268;1432365116;mircea_popescu;ben_vulpes the cost of properly stealing his code would be i guess log n

1144574;1432518969;felipelalli;thanks for help trinque
1144575;1432518969;trinque;no problem; you should be able to self-up btw, not that I mind
1144576;1432518969;trinque;you're in assbot's L2
1144577;1432519003;felipelalli;trinque: thanks, I asked just as a shortcut! Just laziness to sign! :D
1144578;1432519426;felipelalli;trinque: it said "accepted" but why the bot didn't ask me to pay?
1144579;1432519449;trinque;because I pay for it currently
1144580;1432519514;felipelalli;Ah! Thanks so much. I'll donate to your BTC OTC address.

1144595;1432523515;isaackl;mircea_popescu: still here. I read you complaining about lack of affiliate rev on http://trilema.com/2014/bitbet-april-2014-statement/ and did a little digging on other casino affiliate schemes (both bitcoin and fiat). Mostly they seem to pay affiliates a cut of player losses, assumption being that players eventually lose most of their buy-ins to the house (via roulette, slots, etc).
1144596;1432523575;isaackl;BitBet doesn’t have those kind of games and maybe that changes the economics? You have to persuade players to lay down 100 btc to net 1 btc in affiliate rev. Not easy to buy traffic which pays out 100x what you paid for it. With FB ads a typical game might net, say, $10 on average per user, and we’d be buying installs for maybe $5 and trying to optimise it to $3.
1144597;1432523575;isaackl;For BitBet, SEO or finding sites with underutilised ad space (as with 8chan) is probably the way to go? Both take time though. I can send your btc back if you want as tbh I have little expertise in that world. Also let me know if you think my reasoning is flawed.

1144907;1432592124;felipelalli;wow! It is really hard.
1144908;1432592134;felipelalli;I feel better now! :)
1144909;1432592138;kakobrekla;i sucks at ui
1144910;1432592165;felipelalli;I sent 0.1 BTC to funding address. Can I use it to bet?
1144911;1432592263;kakobrekla;your proposition is 'pending' approval - if approved it will be placed on the side you picked, if declined, you will get a refund to the address you specified when creating the proposition.
1144912;1432592288;felipelalli;But I did not picked any side, at least I don't remember. Did I?
1144913;1432592309;kakobrekla;the color of the amount says you picked 'yes'
1144914;1432592329;kakobrekla;you need to select 'yes' or 'no' when creating the proposition, there is no third option.
1144915;1432592340;felipelalli;Ah! That's correct. I guess today I am with some kind of amnesia. Sorry to bother.
1144916;1432592352;kakobrekla;no problem
1144917;1432592437;felipelalli;Why don't you put the GPG of bitbet.us on https://bitbet.us/gpg.txt ? Or your GPG? And/or a link to it on the main page? It would be nice!

1144920;1432592599;kakobrekla;anyway felipelalli , considering only I get to read the stuff that people read should go to @bitbet.us, you can use my key. if anyone will ask for it via email, they can also use my key.

1144928;1432593729;felipelalli;kakobrekla: I'm sorry, I misundertood that. I thought this password was only to have a chance to change the bet if it was rejected or something.
1144929;1432593735;kakobrekla;so as it is now, it will get rejected and refunded prolly.
1144930;1432593745;felipelalli;Thank you, I'll try again.

1145217;1432643606;*;mircea_popescu never cared much for that.
1145218;1432643608;cazalla;but at least it was a passion love/hate fuck fest

1145246;1432643778;cazalla;pulls her hair, she cries, he laughs
1145247;1432643779;mircea_popescu;sounds like a shitty life.
1145248;1432643796;cazalla;well i tell her to go out with the other mums
1145249;1432643802;cazalla;but she acts as if she has 10 kids, not 1
1145250;1432643806;cazalla;but he is pretty full on
1145251;1432643827;cazalla;i can't deal with it without resorting to smashing things
1145252;1432643832;cazalla;so she is left to deal with it
1145253;1432643844;mircea_popescu;sounds like a pretty serious problem brewing.
1145254;1432643863;cazalla;so what? ya belt a 16 month old?
1145255;1432643868;cazalla;they dont understand at that age

1145261;1432643920;cazalla;davout, i bitched about this before mind you.. her father provided everything.. and i mean EVERYTHING
1145262;1432643932;cazalla;woman doesn't know how to really do anything
1145263;1432643936;davout;i was referring to the jewish baby
1145264;1432643939;cazalla;oh
1145265;1432643948;cazalla;well by default yeah i guess so he wants for nothing
1145266;1432643960;cazalla;never enough for toddlers though
1145267;1432643971;cazalla;my earliest memory is getting a beating
1145268;1432643976;mircea_popescu;i think jdif is toddler default
1145269;1432643976;cazalla;this kid? doubt it
1145270;1432643977;mircea_popescu;some outgrow it
1145271;1432643993;cazalla;i went fucking mental the other week at her
1145272;1432644011;cazalla;she tells me.. (on account of her sister/mother) that he won't get into a good school on account he is not christianed
1145273;1432644031;mircea_popescu;cause jewish ?
1145274;1432644043;cazalla;lol no
1145275;1432644056;cazalla;just stupid
1145276;1432644071;cazalla;not that i am super smart
1145277;1432644072;mircea_popescu;davout did you manage to get that pogo going btw ?
1145278;1432644079;cazalla;but i am not christianed either
1145279;1432644096;mircea_popescu;cazalla i think it's christened.
1145280;1432644105;cazalla;let him go to a montessori school if not privately tutored
1145281;1432644112;cazalla;maybe but i am drunk like a fish
1145282;1432644116;mircea_popescu;what's wrong with public schools ?
1145283;1432644121;cazalla;it can be xistied for all i care
1145284;1432644129;cazalla;here? nothing when i was that age
1145285;1432644134;cazalla;now? full of riff raff
1145286;1432644137;mircea_popescu;so ?
1145287;1432644139;cazalla;he'd prob get beat up by the nig nogs
1145288;1432644145;mircea_popescu;well...
1145289;1432644148;davout;mircea_popescu: well yes, stuck at the part where i need to put an bitcoind arm binary on the thing
1145290;1432644151;mircea_popescu;at least he gets used to it.
1145291;1432644153;cazalla;where as i fought and won many fights
1145292;1432644163;cazalla;yeah but i grew up fighting a grown man (my father)
1145293;1432644166;cazalla;so taking on 2-3 kids was nothing
1145294;1432644169;davout;an as far as i understand we need to have a static build first, which we don't
1145295;1432644177;cazalla;dont really have the heart to give him a flogging like my father did me
1145296;1432644192;cazalla;my father would flog me with a jug cord when i was lucky
1145297;1432644202;mircea_popescu;davout well... in the absolute purist sense we won't for a while, on account of how thoroughly corrupt the stack is.
1145298;1432644210;cazalla;otherwise it was punches, many a time spent on the ground gasping for air because he winded me
1145299;1432644211;mircea_popescu;but... there is a cvasi-functional build dpb's been using
1145300;1432644232;cazalla;now i figure it was because my father had his own inadequiancies
1145301;1432644242;mircea_popescu;cazalla the way i view it, especially seeing how it's other people's work & labour,
1145302;1432644244;cazalla;but eventually, i toppled even him
1145303;1432644250;mircea_popescu;public school's a great boon. let him fail early.
1145304;1432644272;mircea_popescu;rather than grow up to be 30 and THEN discover he really has no place in the world.
1145305;1432644282;cazalla;mircea_popescu, but public school here is not the school of hard knocks i went to, it's the school of sjw now
1145306;1432644284;davout;if there's a way to get bitcoind running on the buildroot install i'm interested, my pogo, is waiting, with it's SSD plugged in and all
1145307;1432644302;mircea_popescu;davout you looked through his notes ?
1145308;1432644320;davout;i don't really care that much if it isn't 'pure'
1145309;1432644338;mircea_popescu;cazalla whatever it may be. public school, it's what it is, by definition, like a floating piece of wood on water, always level.
1145310;1432644341;cazalla;remidns me, i need to get my pogo up and going
1145311;1432644350;davout;yeah i did
1145312;1432644352;cazalla;level with what
1145313;1432644358;mircea_popescu;the public.
1145314;1432644368;cazalla;but the public today are weak
1145315;1432644381;cazalla;at least, even 30 years ago, you'd cop a beating from someone
1145316;1432644384;mircea_popescu;so what, you'll build him a speshul earth ?
1145317;1432644389;cazalla;now men of tody are scared to even talk to kids
1145318;1432644391;cazalla;nope
1145319;1432644400;cazalla;if i have my way i'll take him out bush
1145320;1432644410;mircea_popescu;well maybe not at 16 months.
1145321;1432644426;cazalla;australia is fucked beyond repair
1145322;1432644432;cazalla;only took 30 years
1145323;1432644455;cazalla;tbh i blame lack of aunts/uncles/relatives/grandparents for all this shit
1145324;1432644461;cazalla;when i grew up, it's all i knew
1145325;1432644480;cazalla;my son? 1 cousin, 1 uncle, 1 aunty, grand parents live far away, fucking nothing
1145326;1432644486;cazalla;so the mother bares all the burden
1145327;1432644501;cazalla;i got tossed all around the place just a few decades ago if not i went my own way
1145328;1432644518;cazalla;fucking country of pussies
1145329;1432644532;cazalla;someone cussing out muslims makes the mainstream media for hate crimes
1145330;1432644543;cazalla;meanwhile fags were bashed on live tv 25 years ago
1145331;1432644549;mircea_popescu;heh
1145332;1432644550;cazalla;literally
1145333;1432644562;cazalla;fuck australia
1145334;1432644579;cazalla;hope the indochinese come and rape everyone
1145335;1432644588;cazalla;give them a real reason to cry
1145336;1432644616;copypaste;cazalla: https://8ch.net/hola.html
1145337;1432644676;copypaste;Sorry. Site went down four times before I admitted defeat.
1145338;1432644676;copypaste;I offered to pay the Jews off via email, maybe they will accept my offer.
1145339;1432644676;cazalla;yeah i know about that shitty plugin
1145340;1432644676;mircea_popescu;copypaste you know i've been seeing a lot of wobble
1145341;1432644676;cazalla;8chan is dead already
1145342;1432644676;mircea_popescu;o.O
1145343;1432644676;cazalla;all it took was some jews with some plugins
1145344;1432644676;copypaste;hehe
1145345;1432644676;copypaste;it's worse than that
1145346;1432644680;copypaste;all imageboards without CAPTCHA are dead
1145347;1432644688;copypaste;due to this plugin. just a matter of it getting big enough for a spammer to find it fun to spam.
1145348;1432644691;davout;cazalla: you sound bitter, the cool thing about australia though is that you can easily go live in the middle of nowhere and get away form other humans
1145349;1432644691;cazalla;but we dont have captcha here
1145350;1432644699;cazalla;maybe you add assbot to 8chan eh?
1145351;1432644703;mircea_popescu;copypaste o wow, leveraged tor ?
1145352;1432644712;cazalla;davout, not bitter, just betrayede
1145353;1432644716;copypaste;yes, basically Tor but a much larger network
1145354;1432644720;copypaste;9M exits srong
1145355;1432644723;copypaste;0.2% of IP space.
1145356;1432644727;cazalla;davout, and you can't go live in the middle of fucking nowhere, middle of nowhere IS THE FUCKING DESERT
1145357;1432644731;mircea_popescu;copypaste bring it back on a pgp backend.
1145358;1432644750;cazalla;i can't imagine a better scenario for wot than 8chana
1145359;1432644754;mircea_popescu;^
1145360;1432644762;davout;cazalla: yeah well exactly, you don't get cable tv
1145361;1432644783;mircea_popescu;copypaste also, can i has mah banner on your dead page ? :D
1145362;1432644846;copypaste;dead page?
1145363;1432644850;copypaste;the site's not dead. just requires a CAPTCHA.
1145364;1432644863;mircea_popescu;oh oh sorry my bad
1145365;1432644866;cazalla;you know if you added a wot requirement to post, people would either capitulate and join or leave
1145366;1432644866;mircea_popescu;i misunderstood.
1145367;1432644871;cazalla;both scenario is good outcome
1145368;1432644885;mircea_popescu;copypaste i thought you were ddosed into the ground.
1145369;1432644898;copypaste;nah, it was a layer 7 DoS against post.pp
1145370;1432644898;cazalla;fucking winter so cold here
1145371;1432644906;cazalla;we have ducted heating but.. gets too hot
1145372;1432644907;copypaste;i'll think about it some more in the morning. what would stop bots from generating PGP keys? unless i forced them into being at a certain PGp level of course
1145373;1432644920;cazalla;wow
1145374;1432644923;cazalla;copypaste l2p
1145375;1432644935;mircea_popescu;copypaste for one thing, generating keys is reasonably intensive
1145376;1432644936;cazalla;i can go and create 6 million pgp keys
1145377;1432644940;cazalla;what standing would that give me here?
1145378;1432644953;copypaste;as i said
1145379;1432644959;copypaste;unless i force them into being at a certain WoT level
1145380;1432644965;cazalla;so whip it
1145381;1432644967;copypaste;but at that point it's no longer an anonymous BBS.
1145382;1432644968;cazalla;whip it good
1145383;1432644970;davout;copypaste: also feed them to phuctor
1145384;1432644980;mircea_popescu;copypaste in truth all imagebnoards were always pseudonymous
1145385;1432644987;mircea_popescu;you can't have absolute anonimitycan you.
1145386;1432644991;copypaste;true. well, 8chan lets you post over Tor.
1145387;1432645000;copypaste;if you fill out a captcha and stand on one leg while sticking your tongue out
1145388;1432645002;copypaste;:)
1145389;1432645014;copypaste;fullchan4jtta4sx.onion
1145390;1432645015;mircea_popescu;copypaste this is how pgp evens the odds : a new sig costs about 10x more cycles to make
1145391;1432645019;mircea_popescu;than the spam costs you
1145392;1432645037;copypaste;well, that's only for a secure public key.
1145393;1432645043;copypaste;i could make a PGP key with just any data.
1145394;1432645044;mircea_popescu;ips were cheap before, and you still could handle it. now that they became much cheaper they also became a problem
1145395;1432645051;copypaste;it doesn't need to be secure if i just want to spam
1145396;1432645061;copypaste;that's true
1145397;1432645139;mircea_popescu;and you can replace captcha with pgp challenge
1145398;1432645144;cazalla;more more more
1145399;1432645146;mircea_popescu;always on for 1st use, or if spammy.
1145400;1432645148;mircea_popescu;like this :

1145425;1432645362;cazalla;bit difficult when a kid is involved
1145426;1432645371;cazalla;maybe bitcoin will allow me to have another missus elsewhere
1145427;1432645378;mircea_popescu;or maybe jesus will.
1145428;1432645386;cazalla;but i'll never leave/ditch her on account of her mothering my son
1145429;1432645400;cazalla;she's a good mum mind you

1145436;1432645449;cazalla;told her to fuck it and put it in the bin
1145437;1432645465;cazalla;how hard is it to cook lamb shanks
1145438;1432645467;mircea_popescu;so teach her how to cook.
1145439;1432645469;cazalla;in a slow cooker
1145440;1432645478;cazalla;why should i teach her? her father/mother should've
1145441;1432645481;cazalla;she's mid 30s
1145442;1432645485;mircea_popescu;i'll tell you : she prolly set it too low because she was trying too hard not to fuck up.
1145443;1432645488;cazalla;not for me to teach her anything at that age
1145444;1432645497;cazalla;yeah i know exactly what you mean
1145445;1432645499;mircea_popescu;dude forget shoulds. she's your wife, no shoulds.
1145446;1432645503;cazalla;fucks up because of fear of fucking up
1145447;1432645518;cazalla;she really needs a beating
1145448;1432645523;cazalla;just to have a good cry if anything
1145449;1432645525;mircea_popescu;not so far.
1145450;1432645536;Adlai;think of it (teaching her to cook) as an investment in your children's mother/teacher
1145451;1432645547;cazalla;fwiw i dont think anyone needs to be taught to cook
1145452;1432645551;cazalla;should come from within
1145453;1432645555;cazalla;i never read much as half a cook book
1145454;1432645558;mircea_popescu;you don't beat women for existing eh. beating is corrective or perhaps aesthetic, not fucking psychological release.
1145455;1432645559;cazalla;but i can cook
1145456;1432645569;mircea_popescu;well aintcha a little bush hero :D
1145457;1432645575;cazalla;Adlai, i cook the kid's meals, not her
1145458;1432645587;mircea_popescu;erryone that knows to cook does, and erryone who doesn't doesn't. either teach her or else suffar.
1145459;1432645589;Adlai;exactly why you should teach her, so you don't have to do it all yourself
1145460;1432645591;cazalla;mircea_popescu, yeah well i stomped grapes, she didn't, there ya go
1145461;1432645598;cazalla;Adlai, i love cooking
1145462;1432645611;cazalla;cooking is like breathing
1145463;1432645643;Adlai;except my kitchen doesn't turn into a garbage dump from people just standing there breathing
1145464;1432645646;mircea_popescu;Adlai they've got one hell of a thing going, woman fucks up because she's too petrified of doing a bad job an' disappointing him, and he won't teach her because he's petrified of not being able to, and disappointing her.
1145465;1432645650;mircea_popescu;you two need to get over each other.
1145466;1432645668;cazalla;mircea_popescu, no-one taught me
1145467;1432645672;mircea_popescu;so ?
1145468;1432645679;cazalla;yet i can cook for a king or pleb
1145469;1432645682;mircea_popescu;what, the world is equal to your own personal experience ?
1145470;1432645703;cazalla;well now, we've all gotta eat
1145471;1432645709;cazalla;and by eat
1145472;1432645710;mircea_popescu;i bet no one breastfed you, either.
1145473;1432645711;cazalla;i mean eat
1145474;1432645712;Adlai;"it takes a tough man to cook a tender chicken" or teach a good lesson
1145475;1432645719;cazalla;mircea_popescu, 2 years
1145476;1432645729;cazalla;so clearly i hate on the bitch for only managing 12 months
1145477;1432645736;mircea_popescu;eh don't sell yourself short, you prolly made that tit.
1145478;1432645747;cazalla;and she only did it because i forced it
1145479;1432645761;cazalla;or, just like the rest of the mothers in her "mums group" she would've gone to formula
1145480;1432645773;mircea_popescu;"The terms are simple: you get the first $1,000 every new Luminati customer that you referred, spends with us."
1145481;1432645774;cazalla;may as well toss the kid in the bin at that point like a fucked up meal
1145482;1432645792;cazalla;who ever heard of this bullshit that breastfeeding is something most women can't do
1145483;1432645801;cazalla;yet down under.. standard

1145488;1432646039;mircea_popescu;cazalla listen, in any case : you gotta do things together. that's the long and the short of it. now, if she sucks then what you do will be training, but there's no out of this.
1145489;1432646069;cazalla;i forget if i read this on trilema
1145490;1432646071;cazalla;or some other site
1145491;1432646085;cazalla;the things that attract you to someone in the beginning are things you end up hating about that preson
1145492;1432646102;mircea_popescu;if this is the case you got a problem.
1145493;1432646110;cazalla;yeah i know this
1145494;1432646114;cazalla;i know i ahve a problem
1145495;1432646121;cazalla;sorta what i am whining about eh
1145496;1432646134;cazalla;no kid? i'd be gone already
1145497;1432646136;cazalla;kid?
1145498;1432646145;cazalla;bit of a degenerate to abandon him
1145499;1432646153;cazalla;if i drop dead at 50 and he takes the lot so be it
1145500;1432646165;mircea_popescu;so you got yourself a conflict. better stuff of life.
1145501;1432646165;cazalla;won't leave him without a father though
1145502;1432646184;mircea_popescu;it is, notably, not the woman's fault that you got yourself a conflict.
1145503;1432646191;cazalla;nope, not her fault at all
1145504;1432646193;cazalla;my own fault
1145505;1432646196;cazalla;100%
1145506;1432646203;cazalla;which is why i stay and suffer
1145507;1432646216;mircea_popescu;and in the latest eulora news : today's bug is, "mp just got a large mining find, so large in fact that it didn't fit in his mining claim, so it got truncated."
1145508;1432646223;cazalla;would be easy to leave if i ascribed 100% of the blame to her
1145509;1432646225;mircea_popescu;who fucking knew, before today, this is a problem o.O
1145510;1432646239;cazalla;she's mine, he's mine
1145511;1432646252;cazalla;and that is that and if it kills me so be it, he'll have a father to do things with and so it goes
1145512;1432646275;cazalla;rahter off myself than leave him alone with her
1145513;1432646276;mircea_popescu;i somehow dun think it'll kill ya
1145514;1432646295;cazalla;well it all adds up eh
1145515;1432646309;cazalla;already aged 10 years in the past 16 months
1145516;1432646324;cazalla;stopped drinking for 2-3 year before he sprung up
1145517;1432646335;cazalla;no-one puts the drink to my mouth mind you
1145518;1432646343;mircea_popescu;right.
1145519;1432646359;cazalla;i mean tbh sometimes i regret even waking up
1145520;1432646366;cazalla;it'd be nice to just lay down, sleep and that's that
1145521;1432646386;mircea_popescu;heh

1145641;1432652932;mircea_popescu;Dear Judge Forrest,
1145642;1432652932;mircea_popescu;I am writing you this letter in anticipation of my upcoming sentencing. This is a challenging letter to write because, as one who faces punishment, I have a strong incentive to say anything I think might result in leniency. But I have endeavored to be honest and forthright throughout this process, and so I will be in this letter as well.

1145648;1432652996;mircea_popescu;i never bought into the trotskist explainatorism.

1145653;1432653087;asciilifeform;interestingly, it is a well-documented fact that when ivan iv sat his courtiers down on stakes, a very common (if not most common) last few hours was shouting 'god save the king'

1145826;1432673692;ascii_field;probably should have done this from the start
1145827;1432673709;mircea_popescu;i suppose this would be equivalent, if in fact the moduli were uniformly mangled by the shifting.
1145828;1432673715;mircea_popescu;it seems to me still this isn't thecase.
1145829;1432673715;BingoBoingo;mircea_popescu: seems so

1145832;1432673785;mircea_popescu;o.O
1145833;1432673813;ascii_field;which is to say, it so happens that all the mods which had bottom 64 bits be a mirror pair (as per my original mods-only litmus) had full shebang.
1145834;1432673840;ascii_field;try it yourself. (addressed to everyone)
1145835;1432673876;mircea_popescu;heh. that's some very reliable accident.
1145836;1432673885;ascii_field;now, exercise for reader
1145837;1432673915;ascii_field;we now know merely that each key has one or more mirrored modulus
1145838;1432673924;ascii_field;but nothing in particular about ones which were -not-.
1145839;1432674010;ascii_field;at any rate, we now have a rigorous definition of the type of integer we are concerned with:
1145840;1432674016;ascii_field;mirrored(n)
1145841;1432674092;ascii_field;though, for rigour's sake, i will add that n is a multiple-of-64 bits-long, and is nonzero
1145842;1432674650;mircea_popescu;ascii_field and you don't see a case where such a modulo would not be detected owing to the happenstance that it shares no factors with other keys ?

1145849;1432674816;ascii_field;but as for mirrored moduli, we have'em all
1145850;1432674828;mircea_popescu;well, sure, there could be all sorts of classes, but there's no call to poke at crabs with a window wiper.
1145851;1432674835;mircea_popescu;i guess that puts it to rest
1145852;1432674873;ascii_field;now write down n as a diophantine equation
1145853;1432674898;mircea_popescu;anyway : mirrored moduli will necessarily have a factor of the form 0x00000001000000000000000100000000000000010000000000000001000000000000000100000000000000010000000000000001000000000000000100000000

1145857;1432674912;mircea_popescu;which would seem like "a long prime"
1145858;1432674974;ascii_field;and once you've divided by the 'long' turd, what you're left with is small change
1145859;1432674995;ascii_field;factor just as well on '486'.

1147300;1432866716;mod6;but as far as the nmon tests, I wanted to system level profile the entire sync process -- get some visuals, see what we're looking at as far as overall system usage, etc.
1147301;1432866723;decimation;it defintely thinks those areas are leaks, but that might be because of how it was killed, not because it was actually leaked (in the sense of the pointer was lost)
1147302;1432866752;mod6;yeah, im not sure. i need to read more there.
1147303;1432866759;decimation;I see what ascii means about the flat graph (memory.png on the orphanage thermonuke)
1147304;1432866814;mod6;in addition to the valgrind tests that ascii did earlier this month, i was going to dig into some of that myself in june.
1147305;1432866822;mod6;and now, maybe learn the ropes on igprof.

1147308;1432866930;asciilifeform;decimation: where do you see leaks ?
1147309;1432866951;asciilifeform;and i will add, nothing was killed, that thing is running even now, without interruption
1147310;1432866997;decimation;the igprof documentation says that the report shows memory leaks
1147311;1432867019;asciilifeform;decimation: all i noticed is the same 'pocket change' leaks as valgrind shows
1147312;1432867027;decimation;"MEM_LIVE records the ?live? memory ? memory that hasn?t been freed. If the profile statistics file you are processing came from the end of the application?s run, this will be the memory leaked by the job. If the profile statistics file was triggered during the running of the job, it is a snapshot of the heap, i.e. a heap profile. The statistic is accurate (not statistical) and records the number of bytes allocated and the number of c
1147313;1432867031;mod6;so the docs say, "MEM_LIVE records the ``live'' memory -- memory that hasn't been freed. If the profile statistics file you are processing came from the end
1147314;1432867037;mod6;haha. was just typing that out ^^
1147315;1432867038;asciilifeform;well no shit it wasn't freed
1147316;1432867040;asciilifeform;it is in use !
1147317;1432867043;asciilifeform;as in, actually alive
1147318;1432867052;decimation;ah so it wasn't killed, that makes sense
1147319;1432867055;asciilifeform;this is not valgrind! it does not need the process to terminate.
1147320;1432867069;mod6;cool.
1147321;1432867073;*;mod6 goes back to reading
1147322;1432867085;decimation;asciilifeform: so is your goal to trim out all the 'inactive' memory use?
1147323;1432867103;decimation;so that it fits more comfortably in the pogo?
1147324;1432867112;asciilifeform;decimation: my goal is to get it to sit down in 120M or so.
1147325;1432867116;asciilifeform;whatever it takes.
1147326;1432867149;asciilifeform;there is no acceptable reason for the thing not to go in this very generous box.
1147327;1432867170;asciilifeform;in fact, i want it in 32M.
1147328;1432867177;decimation;heh.  you realize this means you are gonna probably have to discard all the C++ shit
1147329;1432867194;asciilifeform;decimation: aaaaand without any major rewrite.
1147330;1432867215;asciilifeform;just by taking every piece of retarded cruft and shooting it in the head.
1147331;1432867226;decimation;yeah there's tons of cruft in there, no doubt

1147368;1432867930;asciilifeform;let's put it another way:
1147369;1432867947;asciilifeform;there is absolutely no reason for bitcoind to ever use more than at most a few MB more than when it first boots.
1147370;1432867994;asciilifeform;is there even any reason ever to keep more than one or two (second being, one that is in the process of load/verify) blocks in ram at one time
1147371;1432868096;decimation;asciilifeform: it appears a big chunk of the memory in use is tied up in the CBlockIndex class
1147372;1432868128;asciilifeform;decimation: that might be the bdb cache
1147373;1432868132;asciilifeform;(see earlier link)

1147478;1432872095;decimation;yes.  but until that point comes, I agree that there's alot of cruft in there - there's no reason why working memory needs to be gigabytes
1147479;1432872208;asciilifeform;we'll know when it comes when the folks who have skin in the game say it did..
1147480;1432872232;asciilifeform;(see excellent old thread re: this subject)
1147481;1432872289;decimation;the folks being everyone holding bitcoin (with expectation of trading them for something)
1147482;1432872411;decimation;asciilifeform: amusingly the yugoslav guy said that 'his' design included an audio cassette for program storage (using simple FSK I presume)
1147483;1432872418;asciilifeform;that was sop
1147484;1432872425;asciilifeform;where else are you gonna store
1147485;1432872443;decimation;he said that the yugoslav radio station would actually interrupt music broadcast to send - fsk encodings of z80 games
1147486;1432872474;*;asciilifeform has trouble believing that this came to any good unless you lived next door to the station
1147487;1432872497;decimation;well, if the SNR was high and the bitrate was low, it would work well enough
1147488;1432872522;decimation;I suspect it was something like 300 baud "bell 202" type modem
1147489;1432872553;*;asciilifeform as a boy sometimes listened to his brother's 'bk-0010' tapes
1147490;1432872570;asciilifeform;we didn't have the thing at home. just the tapes
1147491;1432872611;asciilifeform;(his school didn't have tape decks, you had to bring yer own if family had one)
1147492;1432872658;decimation;heh interesting
1147493;1432872672;decimation;Yeah before flash and cheap hard drives/floppy drives your only option was tape
1147494;1432872678;decimation;or 'prom'
1147495;1432872697;asciilifeform;tape was the mega-storage because just about everyone could beg/borrow/steal a deck
1147496;1432872705;asciilifeform;no special hardware needed
1147497;1432872742;decimation;yeah also common and cheap I guess
1147498;1432872781;asciilifeform;incidentally, long after connecting analogue tape decks to computer was a forgotten misery in the west, ru folks were connecting vcr and getting respectable (10-20G) backup
1147499;1432872785;asciilifeform;as late as early 2000s
1147500;1432872854;asciilifeform;vhs tape can hold a surprising amount (helical scan head!) but tends to rot rather quickly
1147501;1432872904;decimation;yeah you would need heavy forward error correction
1147502;1432872930;mircea_popescu; which is why i think that at a certain point >> that point is conceivably after our times.
1147503;1432872944;asciilifeform;definitely after my time.
1147504;1432872965;decimation;mircea_popescu: you think folks will make do with shit c++ code for our lifetime?
1147505;1432872967;mircea_popescu; he said that the yugoslav radio station would actually interrupt music broadcast to send - fsk encodings of z80 games << i had games i had downloaded off the natl tv station.
1147506;1432872971;mircea_popescu;CRACKED games.
1147507;1432872978;decimation;heh that's amusing
1147508;1432872981;decimation;for c64?
1147509;1432872996;asciilifeform;decimation: c64 was not a z80 box
1147510;1432872999;mircea_popescu;for tim-s
1147511;1432873002;mircea_popescu;which was a z80 clone.
1147512;1432873004;decimation;yeah I know
1147513;1432873010;decimation;ah interesting
1147514;1432873050;decimation;c64 had a version of 6502 like apple II
1147515;1432873065;mircea_popescu;this was the 48kb + 16kb for basic interpreter thing
1147516;1432873082;mircea_popescu;but you could also wipe the 16kb if you never called the thing, via DMA of the time
1147517;1432873093;mircea_popescu;user could poke arbitrary ram
1147518;1432873098;mircea_popescu;(instruction being called... POKE)
1147519;1432873104;asciilifeform;mircea_popescu: interpreter wasn't in rom on your thing ?
1147520;1432873112;mircea_popescu;the notion of "allocation" being unknown. of course it's allocated - the machine's on isn't it ?
1147521;1432873122;mircea_popescu;asciilifeform it was in rom and copied to the ram at startup iirc
1147522;1432873129;asciilifeform;ah
1147523;1432873133;mircea_popescu;not run FROM rom
1147524;1432873177;decimation;from the comments on that yugoslav interview: "Also, there was not a ?ban on importing computers? in former Yugoslavia ? it was a by-product of a (stupid) government policy of trying to stop the drain of foreign currency. The customs law prevented a legal import of any goods that cost more than 100 DM (German marks, about 50 Euros in todays money). "

1147526;1432873197;asciilifeform;exercise for readers: describe -why- it was common (as is today) not to run directly from rom.
1147527;1432873251;asciilifeform;mircea_popescu: 'peek' and 'poke' were sop on c64 and most micros of the time, aha
1147528;1432873274;asciilifeform;the two most useful 'basic' keywords, yes.
1147529;1432873282;asciilifeform;arguably none of the others needed to be learned..
1147530;1432873342;decimation;asciilifeform: was it because loading the contents of the rom into ram allowed a single address space?
1147531;1432873358;asciilifeform;decimation: it was a single address space no matter what
1147532;1432873378;asciilifeform;(not one of these things had an mmu, nor was there any conceivable need for such a thing on a single-process os)
1147533;1432873398;asciilifeform;the reason is that you can do local vars ('static' to a 'c' programmer) in ram
1147534;1432873421;asciilifeform;but in rom, you need a ram stack/heap and can't simply shit where you eat
1147535;1432873443;decimation;it seems that you could pull this off
1147536;1432873450;decimation;but it would be highly non-portable
1147537;1432873453;asciilifeform;you can - but it takes planning
1147538;1432873492;asciilifeform;x86 never runs from rom. not even on warmup when sdram waitstate timer is not yet initialized
1147539;1432873500;asciilifeform;(how? 'cache as ram' mode of x86 cpu)
1147540;1432873572;asciilifeform;hypothetically, one could run an x86 box without any ram inserted, given a clever bios made for this occasion.
1147541;1432873608;asciilifeform;i thought about actually making this, some years ago, as it had useful applications
1147542;1432873611;decimation;especially with modern cpus that have tons of cache
1147543;1432873622;asciilifeform;(cpu is warm and 'remanence' is a non-issue. think, crypto.)
1147544;1432873642;decimation;plus low power, small form factor
1147545;1432873648;asciilifeform;and no wait-cycles
1147546;1432873657;asciilifeform;good for data-compact number crunching problems
1147547;1432873671;asciilifeform;(of the kind i was working on with al schwartz and others)
1147548;1432873678;decimation;to the poor slav z80 coder, the 'naked' xeon has embarassingly rich resources
1147549;1432873709;asciilifeform;hell, the 8MB cache of my ancient 'opteron' is more than i had in my 486dx2
1147550;1432873715;asciilifeform;(of total ram)
1147551;1432873792;decimation;asciilifeform: ideally you would want to connect this naked cpu to others via the memory bus
1147552;1432873806;decimation;but God help the poor soul who would try
1147553;1432873809;asciilifeform;nah we're talking about off-the-shelf iron
1147554;1432873816;asciilifeform;and making best use thereof
1147555;1432873836;asciilifeform;but i have thought about connecting generic x86 boxen via the ram slots
1147556;1432873838;decimation;well, off the shelf you could attach to a good 10gigE card with netboot
1147557;1432873854;asciilifeform;$$$$$$$
1147558;1432873858;decimation;yeah exactly
1147559;1432873877;decimation;it would be cheap to use a 1 gige, but it would also have sad throughput
1147560;1432873889;asciilifeform;ethernet, also, has ludicrous cpu overhead
1147561;1432873903;asciilifeform;so the maximal throughputs are virtually never reached in practice
1147562;1432873908;decimation;yeah, especially if ip stack
1147563;1432874011;asciilifeform;(connection via ram slots is not, as it may appear, lunacy, but could be done with fpga, which would pretend to be a slice of sdram to two boxes at the same time, ignoring refresh cycles and managing locking somehow)

1147565;1432874117;decimation;yeah I can imagine it for a pair of cpus, but what if you wanted N cpus?
1147566;1432874120;asciilifeform;there was an outfit which sold something quite like this (fpga on sdram stick) and even one in the shape of a cpu, which could sit down in ordinary cpu socket on multisocket mb

1148484;1432979844;mircea_popescu;does it end with them on a beach ?
1148485;1432979852;cazalla;yeah, with a kid
1148486;1432979854;mircea_popescu;piss.
1148487;1432979924;cazalla;what's the difference, just the ending?
1148488;1432979982;mircea_popescu;some bits here and there, and the ending, yeah.
1148489;1432979996;mircea_popescu;but qt was fucking incensed at the time, and i agree he had a point.
1148490;1432980097;chetty;I been hearing an ad for a TV show ...Dark Web, apparently all about Silk Road

1148494;1432980253;mircea_popescu;cazalla kinda what adolescents have been doing since forever, neh ? pick a movie/music video/whatevs and imagine it was "about them".

1148496;1432980548;cazalla;well it wouldn't be the first time tv writers have use chans for story lines
1148497;1432980610;mircea_popescu;or vice-versa >D
1148498;1432980674;cazalla;yeah that too.. other idea is that the writers are shitposting about their show to drum up some viral marketing type shit knowing that /pol/ will and has run with it
1148499;1432980689;mircea_popescu;anyway, in fairness what i'm saying is that i don't believe that chan is impressive enough in bodycount to constitute a market anyone would wish to cater to, creating the tv version of hot topic, nor intellectually impressive enough to constitute anyone's thought leadership.
1148500;1432980696;mircea_popescu;but i could be wrong on either score, obviously.

1148502;1432980745;mircea_popescu;if you feel like giving me a top 5 or whatever most relevant ideas coming out of /pol/ i'd read it.
1148503;1432980789;cazalla;5 might be a little tough
1148504;1432980827;mircea_popescu;i'll take anything.
1148505;1432980994;cazalla;well i guess the multi-culti immigration might be a start, not that i mind immigrants but i think they are somewhat right in that it undermines social trust in a community
1148506;1432981028;mircea_popescu;this is by no means a novel point, or all that aptly expressed there, is it ?
1148507;1432981102;cazalla;i just see my own anecdotes mirrored there.. grew up in a homogeneous society where everywhere knew everyone.. 25 years later that is no longer the case
1148508;1432981139;cazalla;but then the argument usually veers towards this being the fault of jews
1148509;1432981148;assbot;[MPEX] [S.MPOE] 43600 @ 0.00032781 = 14.2925 BTC [-]
1148510;1432981153;cazalla;but then that is sorta like blacks blaming whites for their predicament
1148511;1432981180;mircea_popescu;well at least it's not blaming the freemasons.
1148512;1432981190;mircea_popescu;or loose women
1148513;1432981200;cazalla;they blame both of those too
1148514;1432981220;mircea_popescu;(actually, there IS a trend of angry older men trying to make these issues about "whores", but general social discourse's keeping them well repressed atm)
1148515;1432981226;mircea_popescu;ahga.
1148516;1432981267;cazalla;they blame loose women for the down fall of the family unit
1148517;1432981286;cazalla;don't get me wrong.. i like the idea of a strong family unit.. but i also like the idea of loose whores provided the strong family doesn't find out
1148518;1432981337;mircea_popescu;anyway i suspect there isn't a way out. historically, the "civilised world" was rich and powerful because it enjoyed a monopoly on trade, built out of scientific and military effort. the twerps in question, joe average, decided to quit supporting the industrial-military complex (chiefly because they got burned twice in 16-18 and then in 39-44, and it hurt badly, esp the 2nd time, and so it's understandable)
1148519;1432981349;mircea_popescu;as a result, it collapsed, and as a result there is absolutely no reason they should make more than a dollar a day.
1148520;1432981363;mircea_popescu;which is where everyone's headed, from alabama to tasmania.
1148521;1432981382;mircea_popescu;which i don't see any problem whatsoever with, but then again i'm privileged, or as alf put it, "rootless kosmopolitanski"
1148522;1432981383;cazalla;so i still read /pol/ daily but i can easily point out where i am hypocritcal on just about everything discussed there.. do as i say, not as i do sort of thing is really what it comes down to

1148525;1432981471;mircea_popescu;the question of "what exactly is so speshul about joe doe that he should live other than in a hovel like random nigerian" is paramount, and none of the anti-imigration types seem inclined to address it.
1148526;1432981476;mircea_popescu;so... why is he special ?
1148527;1432981517;mircea_popescu;once we get an answer to that we can start discussing how to oppress the nigerian again, at which point "immigration policy" may be on the agenda. not befoar.
1148528;1432981606;mircea_popescu;and the family unit is more of the same. why should 85% have any access to women at all, and why should the 1% not get 94% of all the pleasantly nubile stoyas out there, with the remainder 6% going to the 14% aspirational betas ?
1148529;1432981675;cazalla;well he's not special and in saying that, i'm not special, but i like but can't explain my desire of social cohesion, which is why i like the hitler videos with endless crowds
1148530;1432981698;mircea_popescu;that's the natural distribution in a 2 million strong society : 10k blokes with a harem averaging high 80s headcounts, 140k blokes double-tagging 60k hos and the rest watching the previous on instagram.
1148531;1432981701;cazalla;i don't have egalitarian values so that the minority get the majority of anything does not bother me
1148532;1432981750;mircea_popescu;cazalla there is something to be said for social cohesion, the problem with it is that it tends to flow towards all-germany / all-russia sort of constructs.
1148533;1432981761;mircea_popescu;either trench warfare or "great leap forward" sorta crap.
1148534;1432981795;mircea_popescu;society (as an immanent beast in human affairs) is scared to death of it, these days. i can see why.
1148535;1432981810;mircea_popescu;i suspect for a while yet the only real social cohesion to be head will be in mmorpg raiding parties.
1148536;1432981815;mircea_popescu;had*
1148537;1432981872;mircea_popescu;previously it was rock concerts, but that kind-of died somehow, which i find very weird.

1148539;1432981959;cazalla;i would guess because the last thing that matters is the music.. it's all seating arrangements etc now
1148540;1432982003;cazalla;tickets, cds, tshirts.. it's an expensive hobby these days
1148541;1432982089;mircea_popescu;maybe so
1148542;1432982099;cazalla;mmorpg raids is an interesting thought.. i wonder what race demos of that is
1148543;1432982117;mircea_popescu;i personally care a lot more about the fact that there are no movies/bands/anything worth going to see
1148544;1432982133;mircea_popescu;than the fact that some random immigrant's drooling over random 16yo neighbour.
1148545;1432982169;cazalla;my problem with immigrants is that i grew up knowing my neighbours, my community, it was homogeneous and everyone knew everyone (also was a small town)
1148546;1432982194;mircea_popescu;broadway's fucking dead, think about it - it was born out of the need to provide entertainment on the cheap for the hordes of stated insland escapees
1148547;1432982195;cazalla;in the suburbs just outside the city there is none of that and the idea that you know who lives around you is a foreign idea to everyone i've met down here
1148548;1432982202;mircea_popescu;and now... what ? da fuck does it do.
1148549;1432982275;mircea_popescu;cazalla well the idea of community based on geographic proximity / random accident like that is certainly taken a beating on account of the internets. used to be you had a shot at random neighouring cunt just on the grounds of being neighbouring, at some point.
1148550;1432982294;mircea_popescu;nowadays location's nigh on irrelevant.
1148551;1432982296;cazalla;yes i remember a trilema article along the lines of this
1148552;1432982319;cazalla;or maybe it was discussed in logs but made sense in any case
1148553;1432982325;mircea_popescu;prolly was.
1148554;1432982427;cazalla;pol also made it clear that prior generations always had one that came after it which was seen as worse than the one before it, at least until now
1148555;1432982444;mircea_popescu;not true.
1148556;1432982450;cazalla;it's sorta agreed there that this might be the first generation which is more of a pussy than the last
1148557;1432982452;mircea_popescu;human civilisation fails periodically.
1148558;1432982478;mircea_popescu;russia and central europe had a generation of failures that got kicked out in the 90s.
1148559;1432982503;mircea_popescu;china had a generation of failures that got kicked out in the 30s, that's what the entire revolution was about. china actually has lots of these.
1148560;1432982539;mircea_popescu;pick a country and i'll tell you at least one example.
1148561;1432982559;cazalla;i believe you, just sorta reveals the size of the timeline you and i think on
1148562;1432982568;mircea_popescu;austria had one during friedrich's reign and most of europe had one in the 1790s / 1800s

1148791;1433032910;asciilifeform;williamdunne: 'anathem' (neal stephenson)
1148792;1433032938;thestringpuller;snow crash is my favorite stephenson novel.
1148793;1433032950;thestringpuller;but alf was never a pizza delivery guy so he can't relate.

1148914;1433073071;mircea_popescu;which makes the police become more aggressive which increases the perceived need of the plebs to act tough,

1149047;1433090563;asciilifeform;as far as i can see, it is harmless

1149049;1433090611;jurov;how is it possible to create such key so that it has my factor in?
1149050;1433090651;asciilifeform;jurov: nothing was factored
1149051;1433090669;asciilifeform;jurov: but i can take any set of moduli and shoehorn them into a valid key, sure
1149052;1433090732;asciilifeform;the basic unit of pgptronics is the public modulus / exponent set, rather than 'key' - which is a fairly arbitrary collection thereof
1149053;1433090827;asciilifeform;jurov: now, how one checks that: "Please make sure these are yours" ? << i suppose this is when i explain -why- i wrote the 'dupes' feature to begin with.
1149054;1433090937;asciilifeform;the idea of phuctor is to detect duplicate privatekey material in use anywhere. the reuse of one particular divisor is only one possible scenario - it is also possible that a very ham-handedly sabotaged pgptron somewhere reuses a whole pair of factors - that is, two or more strangers may, somewhere, share an entire private key.
1149055;1433090984;asciilifeform;because said key was hardcoded in, or some schmuck had his seldom-used privkey substituted under his nose, or whatnot.
1149056;1433090999;asciilifeform;hence 'make sure these are yours'
1149057;1433091012;asciilifeform;if someone can suggest a better phrasing for this, please write in.

1149062;1433091598;jurov;asciilifeform: no i meant how do i check someone used my whole moduli vs. someone actually has one or both factors?
1149063;1433092140;asciilifeform;jurov: if someone has one factor, you would end up in http://nosuchlabs.com/phuctored
1149064;1433092200;asciilifeform;jurov: if someone is using both, you will end up in http://nosuchlabs.com/dupes - even though most dupes are harmless
1149065;1433092408;jurov;ok, thanks for explanation. i have not realized the difference between moduli and factors
1149066;1433092463;asciilifeform;beyond this, it helps to review how rsa works.
1149067;1433092670;jurov;yes, but gpg keys are not pure rsa
1149068;1433092710;asciilifeform;jurov: phuctor deals -only- with rsa moduli.
1149069;1433092725;asciilifeform;(key containing no rsa moduli will not be stored or processed)
1149070;1433092840;jurov;i mean there can be multiple rsa keys in one gpg key, no?

1149157;1433111319;jurov;williamdunne: yes i knew about it. but, what do you think "victim of its own success" mean? :DDD
1149158;1433111475;midnightmagic;A 100% freshly-installed, default-settings online.net server in France was owned virtually immediately. Online.net support didn't answer the reinstall ticket for a month. If online.net has been successful, then success probably caused them to start sucking.
1149159;1433111571;midnightmagic;There also doesn't seem to be any ways to use keys without passwords, or set up new servers without email.
1149160;1433111723;williamdunne;jurov: Out of stock, too many people bought that cheap 6 euro dedicated server

1149164;1433111796;williamdunne;jurov: Wow, I can get you better than that. Thats pretty pathetic
1149165;1433111804;midnightmagic;williamdunne: We are forced to use a TLS channel to order product from them. We should be able to spin up a fresh server using that interface solely, and ssh keys entered via it.
1149166;1433111828;williamdunne;What sort of density can you achieve?
1149167;1433111851;williamdunne;i.e using the cheap blades how many servers can you fit per maybe 48us?
1149168;1433112103;williamdunne;midnightmagic: SSH would be preferable, but how important is it really?
1149169;1433112128;midnightmagic;Important enough when the alternative is an emailed rootpass. :(
1149170;1433112392;williamdunne;Can't you just change it as soon as you connect
1149171;1433112477;jurov;williamdunne: pwned immediately, see above
