asciilifeform: davout: aha, you do it on an in-house 'hot' node
asciilifeform: davout: likewise i have nfi why wallet split requires indexing ~all~ unspents. just index the ones the user specifies
asciilifeform: davout: the '~2gb tops' may (or may not) be true currently, but it is a fundamentally unbounded quantity. as discussed in 2 very recent threads with mircea_popescu re 'proton decay' and ultimate lifespan of bitcoin
asciilifeform: '(S//NF) All tools must utilize OS provided cryptographically secure sources of entropy (e.g., /dev/random on *nix, Microsoft CryptoAPI, etc) and should be a source compliant with NIST SP 800- 90. If a non-800-90 mechanism is used, the output from the source of entropy must be hashed with SHA-256 prior to use. Deviations from this must be justified and accepted by the OCRB.' -- 'Network Operations Division Cryptographic Requirements'
asciilifeform: and also hilarious 'HIVE is a multi-platform CIA malware suite and its associated control software. The project provides customizable implants for Windows, Solaris, MikroTik (used in internet routers) and Linux platforms and a Listening Post (LP)/Command and Control (C2) infrastructure to communicate with these implants.'
asciilifeform: aactually i can think of 1 other subj
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: the sicp film was ~watchable, but it is ancient, 1980s, and not even filmed at mit iirc (sussman taught the class for hp employees)
asciilifeform: iirc there are tall piles of canned lectures from mit, etc, wherever you like, on www; somehow did not lead to magical golden age of learningz.

asciilifeform: ( and the occasional login into various ??? tested by some idiot )
asciilifeform: at one point it was an ok place to get shitware samples
asciilifeform: Framedragger: unless you're personally lifting useful bits from the traffic: if it costs even a penny, it's a wasted penny
asciilifeform: ( while we're on subj, gotta wonder how many of the 'death ray' folx even ~did~ ever do any such thing as running tor, 'dealing on darkmarket', etc. and how many -- simply idiots, infected with usg shitware and then 'plea bargain' because 0 effective defense )
asciilifeform: the real lul imho is that there appears to be no serious shortage of monkeys willing to run tor
asciilifeform: does, e.g., heartbleed, qualify as 'good toy' ? considering that openssl was known, to everyone who gave half a rat's arse, to be a cistern of liquishit, long prior ?
