the basic parts of elgamal, hence
the investigation.
a111: Logged on 2016-04-19 16:35 asciilifeform:
to which i bolted a cramer-shoup
thing, and started out
thinking 'i'll reuse
the elgamal piece, c-s is after all a variant of elgamal' but nooooo
mircea_popescu: what happened
to "god damned it, i can't do
this c-s i was going
to do for
the cipher comp because no ffa" ?
mircea_popescu: whatever happened of
that march 2016 promised cs implementation candidate cipher ?
mircea_popescu: "The S.NSA entry is
to be an implementation based on Cramer-Shoup. As it
turns out, Cramer-Shoup has never been publicly implemented by anyone, at all."
mircea_popescu: leaving
the mpi_second_cut as
the basic root for further/other work also.
mircea_popescu: going
to construct a v
tree (on
the basis of her sig)
that builds into eulora crypto lib.
mircea_popescu: i expect it'll be patched into mpi. which she's going
to also sign
to genesis. sorta like how i signed mp-wp, and unlike how you didn't genesis it, or did you ?
mircea_popescu: yes, well,
there's no practical way
to negotiate ad hoc
two such copies if indeed
they exist. logical move is
to syncronize by patience, wait for it
to appear see if it's any good.
mircea_popescu: but anyway -- i see no impediment ; or can wait for diana_coman 's published item on her blog sign
then if happy, or.
mircea_popescu: why didn't you even yesterday is
the more productive question here. what exactly changed since
today ?
mircea_popescu: there's a difference between socializing (which yes, is
the free exchange of valuable bits of knowledge / information) and work (which is
the DIRECTED etc)
mircea_popescu: however. if i don't have a neck
to squeeze when something blows up no work was in fact done.
that's
the writing/reading distinction, code is enacted by reading, in
the speciffic v sense of
the
term.
mircea_popescu: it is not
to say
that one (me, s.mg, diana_coman, everyone) does not benefit immensely from shooting
the breeze among
the intelligent&educated, as opposed
to out in
the cold.
mircea_popescu: see, here's
the problem : work === "hey mp, here's
the genesis &
tree for
the crypto item eulora needed ; now as
to s.nsa's fee...". !work is anything-not-that, including ~very helpful~ side comments.
a111: Logged on 2017-10-18 15:35 asciilifeform: fwiw
there is a quite short ada serpent existing, passes
the
test set ( and branch-free ).
mircea_popescu: didja read it in
the proper sense, or in
the "no obligations" sense ?
mircea_popescu: it is actually possibru she's going
to use a signed item by you ?
though i dun recall
this being mentioned
a111: Logged on 2016-12-28 16:58 asciilifeform since release of FUCKGOATS, spent much
time studying 'serpent' block cipher.
mircea_popescu: this is
the iffy part with "work",
that it bears definitions
that often diverge from what subjective feeling's like.
a111: Logged on 2016-12-28 17:48 asciilifeform: in particular: no
tables.
mircea_popescu: who wrote it is of no consequence,
that pointer will be permafixed as NIL.
mircea_popescu: the situation
thereby is
that
the serpent
to be used in eulora ORIGINATES with diana_coman , its reader.
mircea_popescu: no but see, we use different
terminology. i do not assign anything
to "code written".
the source of code,
to my eyes, is he in
the wot who has read it.
☟︎ a111: Logged on 2015-01-17 22:38 asciilifeform: or, alternatively, like
the choice of 'aes' over
the stronger but 'slower' 'serpent' cipher, it was merely orders from lizardhitler.
mircea_popescu: there's a whole
train of "here's some efortless stuff" in
there, if you've noticed, "x could be used [but i shall do no work]".
mircea_popescu: i put a comment in ; seared with hot irons, and hopefully alongside
the indolence and self-indulgent idiocy of all days
to come.
a111: Logged on 2017-10-18 15:19 mircea_popescu: in other items of republican interest : eulora is at a stage where we have
to set down what we'll use for sensitive data encryption (such as for instance
the privkey files). i don't particularily wish
to use aes ; anyone wants
to contribute
to
this emerging spec ?
a111: Logged on 2017-12-02 22:30 asciilifeform: fwiw asciilifeform will submit ffa.rsa
to be judged in mircea_popescu's symm cipher contest, supposing
the latter is still running
phf: there was a hairy bug in search,
that didn't consider all
the possibilities.
though now
there's a highlighting issue..
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform check it out, old man won in
teh supreme court.
travel ban live.
mats: oh,
thought it was a cock ring
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform if
they had any sense it'd be one addy per email neh
davout: also in case BingoBoingo hasn't already left for
the other hemisphere I wish him safe
travel!
BingoBoingo: lol, looks like new
twist on same old shit
phf: but it's
telnet
towel.blinkenlights.nl
phf: it funny if you search for star wars ascii
telnet second link is youtube
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform
the principal problem is
that no good
text formats for video.
phf: yeah, i
think
that's a bug unrelated
to moon language
mircea_popescu: i don't really
think it's much of an issue altogether, except for
the part where it fails
to find a line for ascii search.
phf: i have some idea of how
to fix
this issue
though. for example i can
treat characters from certain unicode planes (anything higher
than latin-1) as grep
mircea_popescu: aaaah.
the bit is a chinese version of
that romanian curse
the french speaking chick learned phonetically for her role in occident.
phf: it's fundamentally
two different approaches, bvulpes's
thing relies on a lot of pre-written code
that comes with postgresql, mine, for better or for worse, is custom written.
the approach
that postgresql uses is much more elaborate
than what i'm doing. (for example
they have explicit lexing phase both for search and for indexing,
that
takes care of language specific break up of sentences)
phf: sure search_it_form_me(table,
tokenize(query))
mircea_popescu: so i guess
trilema joins
thereby
the sad legion of hos with
tramp stamps.
mircea_popescu: the other problem i'm confronting is
that i don't now remember what
the chinese even meant.
a111: Logged on 2017-12-04 19:37 mircea_popescu:
totally would love a substitute.
phf: this is because word break doesn't understand
that 和 and 我 are words and no punctuation is required for breaking it up.
there lies dragon
territory
phf: mircea_popescu: i'll investigate a bit
the specific mechanics of failure in
this case, but
there are certain situations where unicode search doesn't necessarily work
