mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2018-03-01#1786616 << just learn a two keystroke combo wth, you know ctrl-^ / ctrl-k but can't do !~ ? name calling is for people not for bots. ☝︎
a111: Logged on 2018-03-01 17:59 ben_vulpes: mircea_popescu diana_coman: my mistake, the box is not raid5 compatible, it can do raid1 and raid10. is this okay and do you have a preference between the two?
mircea_popescu: a lol, the very next line. ok!
a111: Logged on 2018-03-01 17:56 ben_vulpes: shinohai: is this an "it works now" or "you did it wrong" sort of thing. fwiw i expect the former in the form of "it was broken because of X, i did Y to fix it, and Z to prevent it from happening again" not that you're my direct report or anything
ben_vulpes: lol i was waitin for that
a111: Logged on 2018-02-25 21:49 trinque: somebody gimme a better rsatron and I'll use that instead.
spyked: buildroot env that pins down all these moving parts...
a111: Logged on 2018-03-01 18:41 phf: http://btcbase.org/log/2018-03-01#1786600 << which os/compiler is that? i suspect that i'll have to put all the annotations into system.h defines and let specific systems pass whatever in a makefile.
spyked: http://btcbase.org/log/2018-03-01#1786626 <-- I ran it on Debian/Adacore 2016 -- system ld is version 2.29.1, and I expect Adacore uses that instead of its own, otherwise I can't explain the behaviour. I'll also give it a try on a Gentoo with same adacore. static inline should be safe from the pov of linkage, but yeah, there's a more general problem there that might benefit from a config.h/system.h or something similar. that or a ☝︎
phf: kk, i'm using the octet one by the way. i should try and drop in the bit level one into the current codebase just to see how that works
diana_coman: but anyway, if there is a problem there I want to hear about it
diana_coman: fwiw the bit-level one is meant for any bit numbers stuff; the word-level was in principle set for octet-multiples
diana_coman: myeah, from what you say alone it does sound like some error but it's not clear without the concrete case
phf: i'm trying to establish if i was seeing a bug, and if it sounds like i might've been i'll try and track it down again
phf: Sponge, presumably it should take any length bitstreams for input/output, and some value of bitrate between 1-width. i was calling it with some 10-1000 bitstreams, and a value of bitrate somewhere around 1200
diana_coman: the default bitrate is 1344 actually; the subrange is between 1 and width of state
diana_coman: phf, the bitrate has to be less than the total capacity (it should fail however earlier since the Keccak_Rate type is limited correctly)
phf: diana_coman: i was also getting some boundary issues with different bitrate issues, i couldn't figure out if it can take any natural value, or there's some specifica subranges that i have to stick to. when i spot checked with values like 1200 (or whatever), it would fail deep inside absorbblock. i'll test it again not that i have a bit of free time and see if i can reproduce ☟︎
phf: i'll try my implementation against arbitrary binary data, because right now i'm still passing in C strings essentially. (i've discovered the null trim issue because one of the buffers ran short, and had stale data in it, so ada was getting a character, where null was expected, but the data itself didn't have anything umseemly about it)
diana_coman: anyways, I'll publish a bit later today chapter 12 and it has the updated Hash too
diana_coman: that Hash was the very first attempt, taking To_C and To_Ada at face value
diana_coman: phf, yes, meanwhile I changed that Hash too, to use same method so that it works out of the box basically
phf: it's hard to say what might be failing without seeing the code, but i couldn't get your Hash working out of the box (it was giving me bounadry errors out of the box), i've not gotten back to it though
diana_coman: obviously, I could also null-terminate specifically for this but overall I'm not convinced anymore it's worth the mess
diana_coman: and it sometimes stops too soon, basically it fails to copy everything ( this is To_Ada but To_C was even more hairy)
diana_coman: yes, I disable them
phf: well, so you want them disable, by default they are enabled
diana_coman: phf, hm, I *did* use those; the trouble is that in principle the rsa stuff is *not* null terminated as such and I couldn't get them to work properly in such case (or is it not even possible, regardless of passing the length?)
phf: diana_coman: take a look at my recent code for ada/c interop. i've not read your C code closely, but i think you might be missing Trim_Nul => False/Append_Nul => False on your to_c to to_ada, which would trigger sporadic exceptions in the interface code
diana_coman: so yes, I totally hear you, ave1
diana_coman is still toiling on writing this monster chapter 12 eucrypt...
ave1: I will, I will, it seems these write-ups explode in depth when doing them!
diana_coman: calling from C something that might look like this in ada: procedure getstring(input: in Interfaces.C.char_array; Output out Interfaces.C.char_array)
diana_coman: no requirement re format, it's really: pass this here char * to Ada safely and recover this String from Ada via an "out String" parameter (char * on C side)
diana_coman: ave1, my current solution is to pass the length as a separate parameter indeed and in addition to actually copy octet by octet; To_C and To_Ada still fail me on occasion so I can't really rely on them - this might be of course because I don't fully understand them yet; in any case, please write it up, pretty please
ave1: Also does this have to follow the gpg format? or simply hex encoded numbers?
a111: Logged on 2018-02-28 15:57 mircea_popescu: ave1 you should ; also read through the eucrypt thing, ima (for instance) need someone to package it into a cmd line gpg replacement as soon as next wek.
ave1: mircea_popescu, http://btcbase.org/log/2018-02-28#1786498, which parts of gpg (I can image plain text signing, encryption and decryption).? ☝︎☟︎☟︎
a111: Logged on 2018-02-28 15:07 diana_coman: ave1 have you ever passed a char * from c to ada in such a way that ada actually sees the correct length for it? there is something I don't quite understand there as To_C seems to use Target'Length so the length should be set
ave1: diana_coman: this, http://btcbase.org/log/2018-02-28#1786496, triggered a short dive into the whole array sending mechanism in Ada. Will write it up and post tomorrow, yes it is possible but you'll need to make some internal structure that Ada uses. Also I doubt it is much better than sending the pointer with a separate length parameter. ☝︎

If one of the result options is given, returns only that numeric result (useful for nesting in calculations). If '--currency XXX' option is given, returns ticker for that three-letter currency code.

ben_vulpes: shinohai: does this still work?
phf: "wait 3 DAY" aight, i got this.
phf: ok got it now, ty
phf: i think there's still something missing

mircea_popescu: one way to find out
phf: i think there might still be a bunch of cool stuff like that hidden in your themes, that's not in wp-mp ☟︎
phf: aah ty
phf: is that a wp admin setting, or apache?
mircea_popescu: nice to fix typos in titles and whatnot. at least for me.
mircea_popescu: phf "edit post" button, set it to unpublished. is your rss delayed ?
phf: sorry about this, i haven't finished writing it, fat fingered publish button, and then couldn't figure out how to unpublish before it hit rss.

ben_vulpes: thanks for reminding me about that; i'll answer in a bit along with your q's on the blog a little later, attention currently demanded elsewhere
mircea_popescu: (divorced from the ~pogos itself~ question, which i gather dun really want)
a111: Logged on 2018-02-18 19:22 mircea_popescu: is there any interest in this line with current management ? get a storage unit somewhere in uruguay, pile up all the pogos and other non-replenishables ?
mircea_popescu: ben_vulpes also http://btcbase.org/log/2018-02-18#1784877 dun figure in there either way... was it ever brought before the board ? ☝︎
ben_vulpes: aight then
ben_vulpes: so likely monday then, or does the 2day include weekends
asciilifeform: going ~out~, that is. ( they will go '2 day fedex' unless ben_vulpes absolutely must have faster )
asciilifeform: ben_vulpes: thursday 1700 (new york time)
ben_vulpes: asciilifeform: any closer to producing an ETA for the FG shipment?

a111: Logged on 2014-07-19 03:16 mircea_popescu: so, this poor unfortunate soul found herself living her parent's dream : an assistant professor! at the prestigious ubb no less!
mircea_popescu: there's exactly no difference between that misfortunate http://btcbase.org/log/2014-07-19#761494 ; or the article's ilie alexandru, or bill gates, or the quoted nigerian, or his exact identical twin obama, or the whole rest of them. ☝︎
mircea_popescu: http://trilema.com/2010/moartea-ca-o-veste-buna/ means "death as good news". because, to this sort of people, it actually is, the best of news. they had no business being here in the first place, life on earth was naught but overburden and the anxiety incumbent from overburdening.
mircea_popescu: bill gates, like any other "oligarch", was made in ye olde socialist manner of "the great inca decrees so-and-so is to fill the role of great rich businessman". it is entirely a paper-only affair of the substance, and of the nature, AND EVEN OF THE FORM! of "joining the hood", carefully not to be scam, and rich through having numbers in bank account etc.
mircea_popescu: anyway, getting back to the point of bill gates / whatever pantsuit commentators on the fringes of the republic and old man jamemary of jamemary114@gmail.com / whatever nigger commentators ~ALSO!!!!~ very much exactly and entirely identically in each and every way also! on the fringes of the republic : there's really no difference.
ben_vulpes: walkin mah feeds in teh wronggg order.
