mod6: "what happened
to mah coinz?"
mod6: mircea_popescu: ah, maybe get all
three. 6
tits. boom.
mod6: i heard dimon's daughter is into btc, we should see if she wants
to do
tits4btc
mircea_popescu: only been a day,
these days medicare can keep even
tom petty alive a day.
mircea_popescu: well, yes, but
then again how many of
the 500 will join
the choir invisible ?
☟︎ mircea_popescu: asciilifeform actually,
this is
the largest IN
THE NEW WORLD. 2nd largest, 43 notches, francisco paula gonzalez in 64.
mircea_popescu: problem is
those idiots are equally willing
to die for all causes.
a111: Logged on 2015-08-19 23:55 mircea_popescu: what, "i'm a boy from
tenesee here
to die for some fat bitch's right
to marry her dog" ?
mircea_popescu: what is
that, smile from within a basket,
torso aside ?
mircea_popescu: or what is
the idea, ima give dimon food because [???] ?
mod6: what do
they call it
these days? "basic universal income" ?
mircea_popescu: their mommies are
too old
to leave food in front of door.
mircea_popescu: yes, but what will
their printed pokemon cards actually do ?
mircea_popescu: problem is -- nobody in current generation has what
to retire on. so im guessing dimon will get a job
to pay for
their 401ks or w/e
they need.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform and while
the bonuses can still be financed out of idiot retirees nesteggs, will continue
to idem shit.
mircea_popescu: this excursion among
the hallucinators has been pretty entertaining.
mircea_popescu: buying jpm is a bad strategy about half
the
time, and bitcoin overperforms dimon by about 1000% EACH SINGLE YEAR
mircea_popescu: i wish
to fucking know, at what point has buying bitcoin been a bad strategy ?
mircea_popescu: "Will bitcoin ever be a safe investment or always a gamble? -
The boss of JP Morgan was unequivocal about bitcoin at a recent conference in New York:
the digital currency was only fit for drug dealers"
mod6: but i see what you mean. sorry for
the interleaving Mr. P.
mircea_popescu: dontchakno, we maybe forgot all about it, could
think coinbase relevant somehow.
mod6: i.e.
trying
to equate your implementation
to crc barrett.
mircea_popescu: "Coinbase and
the Power of Bitcoin Exchanges - Many fondly remember
their first Bitcoin
transaction. It likely
took place on Coinbase, one of
the first exchanges
to serve
the Western marketplace" in continuing lulz.
mod6: asciilifeform: ahh.
thanks for saving me
the
time -- i was doing some mental gymnastics on
that.
mircea_popescu: what
they were
trying
to say was
that
they... lost... again.
the little bch for btc
tit for
tat left btc in
tatters and
their dwindling supply of btc ever
thinner.
mircea_popescu: and in continuing lulz, "Bitcoin price is up but
top Wall Streeters aren't on board"
mircea_popescu: and so
to
the "curious" pretending
they "have no proof" as
to why and wherefore
trilema is more widely read
than
the entire pantsuit media edifice, washpo, nytimes
to
the last campus libel piece
TOGETHER : consider
that
there exists exactly one venue in
the world
that explains, and has been explaining
that why during
this interval.
a111: Logged on 2017-10-06 14:30 mircea_popescu: dood had 37%
the kill efficiency and 167%
the wound efficiency of
the wtc folks.
mircea_popescu: momentarily back
to
http://btcbase.org/log/2017-10-06#1721672 discussion, i must say i'm reasonably impressed
that ~none of
the "public discourse" in jew/faux media includes
the "nobody can understand WHY"/"such INCOMPREHENSIBLE" mandatory verbiage of five years ago.
☝︎ a111: Logged on 2017-10-06 22:38 mod6: glad
to hear
the progress. (im still reviewing barrett in Handbook of Applied Cryptpgraphy 14.3.3 & 14.3.4)
a111: Logged on 2017-09-16 02:57 PeterL: by
the way, I stuffed
the keccak ada stuff (and, speaking of OAEP, here is one of
those
too) into
https://github.com/PeterMLambert/keccak since I don't have my own server up yet
mircea_popescu: seems a good indication of merit,
that
they've put
the effort into persuading
the original poltroons into hiding it.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform as it happens i actually want
to rescue
the (classic) keccak implementation from
the obvious nist-driven oblivion.
mircea_popescu: anyway, if anyone can cough up a manner
to evaluate, any particular scheme, or even a comparison of a pair, i'm of course all ears.
a111: Logged on 2017-09-20 19:28 asciilifeform: incidentally iirc we did
the proof of 'if
there is a good hash,
there is a good blockcipher, and vice-versa'
mircea_popescu: the categorical alternative (literally what gpg does now) fell on
the grounds of "at least we don't need aes" ;
the obvious "cut R into bits and use each" seems
to my eye weaker,
tho who even knows.
mircea_popescu: basically
the scheme is, you rsa a random bitfield,
then you expand
that into as much otp as you want by doing recursively Fi = hash(bitfield + Fi-1).
there's a limit on i, obviously, which can be set
to 1.

☟︎ mod6: <+asciilifeform> mod6:
this is
the most brutal possible method
that can still be called barrett : didn't even make use yet of
the fact
that we only want
the upper halves of
the mul results << spent
the afternoon looking
through your changes posted
today vs.
http://btcbase.org/log/2017-10-02#1719721 ☝︎ mircea_popescu: hang on, ima actually publish
the discussion fragment.
a111: Logged on 2017-10-06 21:14 asciilifeform: diana_coman: how do you picture
this looking in practice ? variable-length keys ?
mircea_popescu: given up on
the whole dao nonsense, have
they ? why are
they still here, why
the gun still unfired in
their lap, why
the brahms not playing ?
