a111: Logged on 2017-11-16 03:30 asciilifeform: ( reading
the linked item, it would be impossible
to infer
that it is ~not~ one )
a111: Logged on 2017-11-15 23:59 asciilifeform: at any rate
this is a quite pointless imho discussion, we will NOT be reintroducing normalized integer braindamage.
apeloyee: ...factors differ only a few bits in length, it doesn't appear
to be better
than NFS.
☟︎ a111: Logged on 2017-11-15 23:43 asciilifeform: and
the difficulty of breaking rsa via known methods is proportional
to
the size of
the smallest prime. you oughta know
that.
BingoBoingo: This is a reduction of ~21.47% over number from last night
taken
through weekification and de-fxrisking
transform.
BingoBoingo: Figure subject
to change as more
tax law is digested
BingoBoingo still has more
tax law
to read, but new rough number is 61.615 USd/week per RU or 267 USd/monthly per RU
☟︎ jhvh1: BingoBoingo:
The operation succeeded.
kyliee: Bitcoin... I need
to understand how
to
trade without using one of
the government run platforms
BingoBoingo: What brings you out
to
these here boondocks?
a111: Logged on 2017-11-14 14:36 mircea_popescu: however you "cut"
the problem out,
the surface of
the cut becomes
the problem
a111: Logged on 2017-07-18 03:17 mircea_popescu:
the notion
that bitcoin can somehow by stolen by name is so ridoinculous as
to betray its ustardian origins. bitcoin is not a name.
a111: Logged on 2017-11-15 23:46 PeterL_: hmm, I must have missed
that day in 1st grade
a111: Logged on 2017-11-15 23:44 asciilifeform:
this is 1st grade material.
a111: Logged on 2017-11-15 22:41 lobbes: i.e. it still uses someone else's code for
the 'core' irc functionality. I'd rather
that core functionality be ircbot, but of course
this'll be a huge
time investment migrating everything (and learning lisp). In
the hopper,
though.
a111: Logged on 2017-11-15 20:54 asciilifeform: but rather confiscation of
the whole shebang from
the wreckers.
a111: Logged on 2017-11-15 20:30 asciilifeform: but instead a rerun of
the august item
a111: Logged on 2017-11-15 23:37 asciilifeform: let p be any 4096b prime, let q be any 4096b prime,
throw out both if pq exposes a high bit of 0
PeterL: anyway, I have
to go
take care of
the kids, as always I keep an eye on
the logs.
a111: Logged on 2017-11-15 11:33 diana_coman: I've been playing around with
the keccak implementation from PeterL and it seems overall all right
PeterL_: hmm, I must have missed
that day in 1st grade
☟︎ PeterL_: but isn't it easier
to break knowing
that
they must be 2048b
than if
they could be anywhere within a wider range?
PeterL_: why do
they have
to be 2048b?
PeterL_: but why do you limit
to 2048 and not 4096?
PeterL_: since once you get p, you should know
the size q needs
to be
PeterL_: I guess I was just
trying
to skip a few iterations of chucking out bad values?
PeterL_: I
thought we were
trying
to get p and q where p*q is 4096b?
PeterL_: and you end up with
the right size of value for p*q , right?
PeterL_: gives a wider range of possible values
than just using a set bitness for both p and q
a111: Logged on 2017-11-14 11:33 apeloyee: diana_coman: if keeping
the minimum of 2^2047 for primes, you can, for example, generate primes between 2^2047 and 2^2049, and start over if
the modulus is unacceptable. not sure what minimum for p and q makes sense.
PeterL_: hi, missed
the 30 second window
to identify as PeterL
shinohai: How does it help
the poor schizophrenic ? He's probably freaking out "I'll bet
they know I
took
this pill......"
BingoBoingo: <asciilifeform> but i suppose is now a dried, rather
than soft
turd. << So you broom rather
than mop
lobbes: i.e. it still uses someone else's code for
the 'core' irc functionality. I'd rather
that core functionality be ircbot, but of course
this'll be a huge

☟︎ a111: Logged on 2017-11-15 19:16 mircea_popescu: and speaking of bots, lobbes is your idea
to genesis lobbesbot ?
lobbes:
http://btcbase.org/log/2017-11-15#1739265 << My ultimate goal with
the
thing would be
to use
trinque's ircbot and
try and rebuild lobbesbot off of
that. As it stands now, lobbesbot is nothing more
than a suite of 'supybot modules' I wrote
☝︎ BingoBoingo: <mircea_popescu> asciilifeform you just
tell people "follow
the last". <<
Tag, category, etc.
phf: still waiting for
the kristallnacht
phf: shit my emacs greets me with iswitchb-mode is obsolete on boot, if i cared enough i'd patch it out, but it's a daily meditation on
the general level of fuck
phf: amusingly none of
that "super fast" shit is used anywhere. venerable hunchentoot was used used by weitz
to deliver consulting solutions (was also used by me for same purpose back when it was
tbnl),
these super fast
toys are used
to host author's blog.
phf: asciilifeform: uses cl-async which is an ffi
to libuv
phf: ben_vulpes: yeah, one of
those people
phf: well, in a sense
that it's not a special wrong.
they also run systemd and can't wait for wayland etc. etc.
phf: "shinmera" is part of
the new school of common lispers who put out reams of code
that's basically ffi
to c world. nothing wrong with it per se, but from
traditional lisp perspective
they are prime wreckers
trinque: maybe
they meant
the other lisp
trinque: pretty sad item
to come
through "Planet Lisp" RSS
