mircea_popescu: the lulz are endless, "wolff is a well known hack of 0 credibility, but his current crop of nonsense confirms '''what we already know''' so
tjhere is
that". ah, such lulz.
phf: my read on
the situation is
that it's a bunch of lisp machiners
taking emacs and
trying
to
turn it into a lisp machine, and rms having a ptsd reaction
to it
BingoBoingo: ben_vulpes: Just because
there's far less of
them here doesn't mean
they have value
ben_vulpes: good
to see
that some
things never change, like BingoBoingo's
taste in news
a111: Logged on 2018-01-08 00:55 asciilifeform: buncha derps in 1990s ran off
to mikehearn emacs, back in
the day.
phf:
http://btcbase.org/log/2018-01-08#1766790 << xemacs was joint work by sun and lucid, it's hard
to say who's
the durps here, since it was a bunch of professionals with lisp machine background
trying
to plug particularly nasty holes in emacs architecture (back before
there even was an architecture)
☝︎ mircea_popescu: these fucktards are god's personal gift
to comedy goldmines everywhere. just fields upon endless fields of permalactating lulzcows.
mircea_popescu: deep principled inspection! does it say "non pantsuit shouldn't be in position of power" ? FREEDOM OF SPEECH!!11 does it say non pantsuit
things ? UNFORTUNATE FREE SPEECH FUNDAMENTALISM!!!!
mircea_popescu: or, possibly,
the $100
tomahawk inventory burning resulting in ~0 roi of any kind. or or or.
shinohai: They have
to give
themselves fancy
titles since
they can't be a part of
The Most Chauvinist Serene Order Of
The Holes Gloriouses
trinque: as
to
that, americans love making up
titles.
trinque: I'd say
Trump and Breitbart owners wanted Bannon out after losing Alabama.
mircea_popescu: also what's
the diff between executive chairman (ie, member of
the board doing
the ceo job) and ceo ?
mircea_popescu: btw, in pantsuit distillate
terminology is "legacy" as
to
the future or as
to
the past ?
knubie: make
Trump great again...
trinque: maybe
trump called somebody.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform besides
the fundamental (you gotta power your guess engine with something, guess whart you're powering it with) ?
diana_coman: knubie, play eulora, might do something either way
to
that heartburn at least
knubie: add Ricki Lake
to
the mix..
mircea_popescu: she could go on
the apprentice, he could go on
the "obnoxious mammie wants
to pretend she reads" show...
knubie: who would you consider
the favorite
knubie: haha, would be fun
to watch, must admit..
mircea_popescu: other
than obvious/glaring/cosmetic issues,
this isn't even such a
terrible idea ;
though
the properties of
the conventional padding scheme are something you'd regret losing.
mircea_popescu: so basically,
the summary would be,
that fellow
took symmetric cyphering, sawed it open, used half of
the parts for an ad-hoc rsa padding scheme, and implemented
the whole kaboodle in python./
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform well, yes,
that's what i'm, saying, kinda interesting
to see if
this may actually work as
that.
shinohai: mircea_popescu: I regge'd and messaged him,
though his profile shows: Last Activity Mar 4 2017, 10:53 AM
phf: shinohai: hah, it's not on her in
this case, in fact she's relishing
the opportunity. it's just not in my nature
mircea_popescu: "oh, you mean
the nut with
the fillerchar???" works, if one's inclined/
mircea_popescu: pantsuit paradise over here, because really nothing is easier
than
to brand such efforts. "dude is evidently a cook, look at $example".
a111: Logged on 2015-07-05 23:53 asciilifeform: or
that other
thread, which i can't seem
to find, where we spoke of how 'maths wot is not essential for being published, but for even having publishable ideas instead of burning your life on fibonacci sequences or some other solved/irrelevant dead end'
mircea_popescu: this, incidentally, is why systematic education became a
thing.
mircea_popescu: "# fillerchar: A chosen special filler character
to be used.
This character is assumed
to have no occurrence in
the given plaintextstring and is not alphabetical." << holyshit wat.
☟︎ trinque: ah. knubie
the command
takes effect when someone does !!v
knubie: trinque: Ahh, worked for me now, had a couple min delay on
the otp
mircea_popescu: anyway, friendly reminder : many people run
this chan as a main/major part of
their
tty arrangement, read all
the lines, you do NOT wish
to advertise yourself as an annoyance.
shinohai: vpn doesn't have ability
to run znc obviously
jhvh1: mircea_popescu:
The operation succeeded.
mircea_popescu: !~later
tell aegis wouldja stop with
the join/part spam
shinohai:
http://archive.is/SUV5O <<< I know it is Kruds on Security, but nonetheless lulzy "Snyder discovered
that Overstock’s site just as happily accepted bitcoin cash as payment,....."
to any old regular Bitcoin address
shinohai: Apply more beatings phf,
then she will cater
through sickness AND health.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform it's painful, jesus, guy has
the right idea gets fucked anyway.
a111: Logged on 2018-01-04 14:53 asciilifeform: 'hardware isn't easy
to build
therefore couldn't possibly be necessary,
the gods would not have made
this level so hard, for me,
the hero' or similar.
mircea_popescu: motherfuckers! how about we just blame
the liberals and go
to sleep instead!
mircea_popescu: dude,
this is painful
to read. so he correctly explains
the problem with
trusting
the massive "pki" imperial faux-crypto, "too large
to practically read, proven insecure, etc".
then ? "# Both communication partners have
to download
the same version 3x of Python from
http://www.python.org."
phf: well, now
that
the fever dropped from halucinatory 39
to a pleasant 37.5, i get
to experience an mp lifestyle: i just lay in bed and all my whims are catered
to :)
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform korea is an ancienter civ
than russian! and
this is kievan not muscovy!
mircea_popescu: it's worse everywhere ;
the koreans with
their windows banking, /me personally observed mural dedicated
to ghandi, jobs and other "great demigod-geniuses of mankind"
mircea_popescu: fucking gates should be hanged by his guts ;
this pestilence is his legacy upon
the
third world. no amount of "curing afflictions
that beset
the subhuman horde" can possibly compensate for having clipped
the
top.
mircea_popescu: "# We use c=0.005 which has been experimentally found
to be optimal in processing
time for common PC under MS Windows and values of k of practical interest. A different c value may be desirable for use in different computing environments." << check it out asciilifeform ! IT IS SATOSHI ALL OVER AGAIN. why. WHY!!!
