asciilifeform: ^ fresh gentoo box, in response to any man command
asciilifeform: ^ curious when 1st popped up
diana_coman: namely: it needs to calculate nminus1 / 2 ^ k but it does NOT call mpi_tdiv_q_2exp(result, nminus1, k)
diana_coman: because dividing n by 2^0 aka 1 means result should be n

mircea_popescu: 2^20 ~= 10^6 ?
asciilifeform: in the time it took you to write this, yer fg clock beat out 28^20 time units.
asciilifeform: ^ subj
asciilifeform: prolly i'm doomed to describe a complete algo nao. so consider : no pow. a block is 2^20 bytes . it can hold a certain # of fixed-length tx ( i will not repeat earlier scheme, with the luby etc., imho it was adequate. ) ;
a111: Logged on 2016-06-20 04:23 phf: which is handy if you're using something else to produce the patch, or if you need to use a non-trivial diff command. for example i sometimes need to exclude files from diffing, so a command might look like diff -x foo -x bar -x qux -ruN a b | grep -v '^Binary files ' | vdiff > foo.vpatch
mircea_popescu: let's take a = every other bit of n. to mine this block, you must produce an x so that x is twice the bitsize of n, and (x+a)^n is mod congruent to x^n + a (mod n)
mircea_popescu: but the base factor can't be this fucking humongous ffs, it's just (x+a)^n vs x^n+a.
mircea_popescu: the order IS log^6, which was the great progress, originally it was log^12
asciilifeform: and the order is log(n^6)
mircea_popescu: and i have a good mind to mandate eucrypt impl of m-r actually uses 2^8 ie 256 as minimum.
mircea_popescu: for the record, if n = 2 ^ 2048, that limit is ~238.728599954.
mircea_popescu: (for the record : it is a fact that there exist infinite composites so that their SMALLEST witness is at least ln (n) ^ 1/(3 * ln (ln(ln(n))). yet "cryptography community" keeps doing this small witness bs.)
mircea_popescu: given n > 2 and a coprime to n, n is prime only if (x+a)^n mod-congruent x^n+a (mod n)
jhvh1: mircea_popescu: 4^-16 = 2.3283064365386963E-10
mircea_popescu: !~calc 4^-16
jhvh1: mircea_popescu: 4^-12 = 5.9604644775390625E-8
mircea_popescu: !~calc 4^-12
mircea_popescu: seems a gratuitous (but not readily computable) degradation of the 4^-k outer bound.

mircea_popescu: i like the part where he explains why 2^32 scan being 1.6 seconds is not good news for scanning 2^32

mircea_popescu: now, the expectation is that a full day of play will produce less than say 2^15 or so messages.
mircea_popescu: in ~principle~ serpent doesn't expose the key anymore than it exposes the cipher. the claim is that if you know about 2^100 or so plaintext-ciphertext matches you can extract the key.
mircea_popescu: but if memory serves the "attack" on serpent used 2^100 plaintexts sorta deal
asciilifeform: ^ possibly in there, actually. re the faux 'contest'.
