mircea_popescu: and besides, with a settable hash like mpfhf you can use different size hashes all
the
time.
trinque: doesn't
that successfuly diminish
the likelihood of a usable collision?
mircea_popescu: "yes, enemy has alphabet of chunks : he knows how
to sign ilif every
time it comes after asci and is 2nd in
ther chain"
mircea_popescu: i see what you mean, but you've no legs
to stand on. suppose each successive block is a successive hash.
mircea_popescu: because faad is
the signature for "0001what " not for "0001otherwhat"
mircea_popescu: and you know 9 blocks were signed, and
they are as such :
mircea_popescu: let's
take as sample
text "what means 'more compact construct'".
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform>
that's just another hash. << no,
tmsr-rsa does fulltext signing.
trinque: you asked
the indexes of your
trusted peers, who asked
theirs
trinque: can still sign
the material pointed
to by
the hash, if worried.
trinque: it's a fact
there's a log line, and also a fact a phfnode said about it, I saw at
time
T trinque: isn't any very good reason why phf's style and ben_vulpes's style are both facts expressed in some datastructure, identified by
their respective hashes.
mircea_popescu: this is very specifically what
they mean by "permanent solution
to
temporary problem" btw. here we are.
mircea_popescu: poor naggum. if he lived he'd have had something
to live for,
ben_vulpes: as an aside, it is obnoxious
that anchors are not passed in
the request
mircea_popescu: much like digital notation of
transcendents, be it more convenient, does not un-make
their
transcendence.
mircea_popescu: it is more ~convenient~
to have
the url in phf style, but
this convenience does not change
the fact
that yes,
they ARE ben_vulpes style.
mircea_popescu: old style ben_vulpes was an attempt
to do exactly
this i suspect, we nixed it because
too long hashes ; but practical considerations have no
theoretical power.
mircea_popescu: now,
that in practice
these APPEAR mixed, is a matter of little
theoretical consequence.
mircea_popescu: "give me
the list of all lines with string x" are not requests for urls per se, but requests for computation. "please interpret
the indirection layer and compose a list of urls as a solution
to
that".
mircea_popescu:
http://btcbase.org/log/2017-09-01#1709154 << seems
the correct solution is
the layer of indirection. you do have actual information, which is immutable, and which can be served as urls ; and you have indexing etcetera, which yes is mutable, but which also best lives as an alias layer on
top of urls. so in
this sense : each line in
the log is an url ;
the query for "give me
the by-day list of archives" just like
the query for
☝︎ mircea_popescu: and
the inept copper is
trying
to flirt with
the hussy, in
their inept cuckolded way. and she's evidently privy
to it, and so is her cousin. (2nd pic)
mircea_popescu: considering
the old woman in question worked for
the uk govt,
there are
truly fewer
things more upright or morally deserving
to do
than
to destroy her soul and
throw
the bits in
the garbage.
mircea_popescu: "She said: ‘These people have just
trashed 30 years of my life and
thrown it into bin bags. It is soul-destroying.’"
mircea_popescu: there's also loads of whores, and some migrant gypsies.
the latter category possibly only ones who are both having fun and using
the uk as it is intended and merits
to be used.
mircea_popescu: there's loads of "it experts" who get all excited about salaries being slightly higher
than in bucharest and
then do indescribably stupid bullshit in
the vein of undertaking 30 year adjustable mortgages
to buy
the utter shit
that passes for real estate in england and
there only.
Barbarossa_: they do seem uniquely miserable,
though - even by British standards
Barbarossa_: can't argue with
that,
though
there is admittedly some selection bias: only Romanians I know are professional gamblers
mircea_popescu: i don't know anyone but idiots and poor orcs still in
that shithole. romanians fine example of both categories.
Barbarossa_: sweet -
they're super stringent in
the UK; US pretty laid back in my experience
Barbarossa_: haha,
the UK casinos are a *little* nicer - but
the US has
the best I've seen, by far
Barbarossa_: It's a LOT less interesting
than you're imagining, I can promise you
that
mircea_popescu: what do
they do
there, eat pringles and show each other
their id badges ?
Barbarossa_: sorry - in UK casinos
there are lots of Romanian dealers
Barbarossa_: hot Romanian females deal in
the UK; .ro d00ds aren't impressed
mircea_popescu: whatever. if you're looking for advice,
the correct advice is stay away from women.
mircea_popescu: i can't even parse
that, wtf is "romanian gamblers", and what is "their womenfolk" and what is voluptuous here and so on.
trinque: lol, maybe
they like
their women enough
to keep!
Barbarossa_: mircea_popescu: Romanian gamblers have warned me
to stay away from
their womenfolk, no matter how voluptuous - apparently more
trouble
than worth - good advice?
trinque: specifically publishing is a separate concern from
the rest, and would benefit from
the fault
tolerance proposed.
mircea_popescu: in
this view
the "web" logsearch is really properly "that part of uci you lot intuiutively implemented"

trinque: are we really
trying
to preserve every idiotic misuse of hypertext here?
Barbarossa_: no worries - didn't mean
to besmirch your character - just not waste your
time
danielpbarron: Barbarossa_,
take your
time. also i would not sell you one i already opened; i have plenty still sealed in
the electrostatic bag
mircea_popescu: this is
the problem, with pantsuit as prb alike :
they lack
the capacity
to influence reality. at any point, arbitrarily long chain of "progress", unwound at 0 cost.

trinque: hypertext on gossipd may sensibly *lack*
the notion of "website" entirely.
mircea_popescu: there was a
time when most ghosts had no idea wtf
this
http is and how does internets again ?
a111: Logged on 2017-09-01 19:50 ben_vulpes: what as if
there are zero with spellable names gtfo
a111: Logged on 2017-09-01 19:36 mircea_popescu: asciilifeform my point was
that by
the
time
they
typed in 83
the rest of
the "unmemorizable address" is already filled in.

trinque ( and others ) : out of curiosity, how many ipv4's do you personally keep in yer head ? ( NOT counting 'magics' , e.g. 127.0.0.1 )
trinque: used
to do all kinds of "patch
this file in
that dir with leethax.exe" when I was in
teens
