mircea_popescu: romanians got them from the soviets
as a general rule.
mircea_popescu: what exactly could you possibly use one for ? not like they even have the usual value of "stolen documents", i guarantee you if you examed the O-paygrade you'd find not a single soul
as well informed
as the famous contractor/defector.
mircea_popescu: nah. it's already very much siberia
as far
as they're concerned.
mircea_popescu: but leaving these proper statements aside -- never mind the civilisational aspect, limit yourself to culture. they might've bothered to realise the only enemy is the taxpayer, moved to limit his impact on government. exactly
as the medieval collegiate disputes flew.
mircea_popescu: phf in the sense that they were trying to sell the machines, but avoid
as much of the dev work
as humanly possible ?
mircea_popescu: control
as the psychological construct is complicated.
a111: Logged on 2017-11-14 20:43 mircea_popescu: it was involved
as mental poison in these people's heads.
phf: well, folx in question plundered
as much
as they could from mit and carefully guarded whatever they themselves produce. i don't know about there not being "logical reason to publish"
mircea_popescu: i know a bunch of imbeciles who should speak a lot more hesitatingly than this guy. such
as for instance ~everyone not-white. somehow, they don't, going all the way to like obama daring to even open his mouth in public.
mircea_popescu: it's the fundamental orcism, this. expressed pluriously by the orcs now inhabiting the once-proud colonies. "you couldn't know
as you haven't experienced". really, bitch ? what the fuck DO YOU THINK KNOWLEDGE EVEN IS!
mircea_popescu: the ro folklore imagines the emperor's court
as a sort of larger peasant house. i have no doubt ceausescu imagined all others
as a sort of "people from village i have known"
mircea_popescu: had no idea of eg the man's letters,
as they weren't in the 3rd grade manual. or of anything else.
mircea_popescu: not at all. he had the most cursory familiarity with the man's work, of the exact sort
as might have been pounded into a trades apprentice during basic schooling by kingdom efforts.
mircea_popescu: i very much doubt he understood alecsandri
as anything else. "a writer", yes, like a sort of newspaper man ++, a young mark twain, maybe talented, his paternal job being to "make available circumstances to development".
mircea_popescu: nevertheless, the correct solution to this "quickly, prime this many bits long" is a n, k tuple which contains n
as the bitsize and k
as the "oddness". if you want the n - 396 k = 5 prime you get 2^396- 1229
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform there's much faster ways, such
as the 2^x - y method.
apeloyee: the amount of computation that you must do ,<< the same
as for any packet: 1 mod-exp and check padding. >> and bits you must buffer, to do friend-or-foe, is considerably larger. << twice
as much. might be acceptable, depending on circumstances.

http://btcbase.org/log/2017-11-13#1737264 <-- strings are (lisp) lists-of-characters. which,
as it is, unfortunately makes parsing and evaluating builtin functions (e.g. cons, car, cdr) a pain in the ass. can be structured cleanly though. also, this makes it not a simple matter of find+replace in shithub scheme.adb.
mircea_popescu: of particular interest to you might be causescu's self-concept, especially items such
as "a critica" (to critique). i dunno how many of his own words you've read, but the man had a very interesting (on the grounds of its incredible low level form that maintained reasonable function) husserl approach to post-hegelian dialectics.
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo generally the lowest rank of the letters of credit. the bank makes a non binding judgement
as to customer;s ability to meet a specirfied financial obligation.
mircea_popescu: and in other lulz : usg focused on infiltrating and corrupting ro justice system first ;
as a result in 1999 they came up with a "rehabilitation" supreme court decision. ro govt refused to recognize it, which resulted in a lot of usg agitprop material
as to how "romania not yet rule of law".
mircea_popescu: are you aware there's a substantial ro mystico-scientism putting the etruscans
as romanian derivative ? and no, it's not "ceausescu madness", ro sufragette cca 1920, exact equiv of that russian fat old woman.
a111: Logged on 2015-04-30 15:40 mircea_popescu: incidentally, the original (mostly politically driven) explanation for violence against homosexuals - some sort of "homophobia" suffers a lot seeing how ALL SORTS of other sexual behaviours elicit the same violent response. such
as transsexualism, or pedophilia.
mircea_popescu: nobody cares for
as long
as they're used for what they're intended to be used, such
as reproducible scientific simulation.
mircea_popescu: "all you need to know is where the signature 1blocks come in the "rng",
as they will be preserved by binary mult, can be seen in modulus."
davout: mircea_popescu: i remembered mostly the "pedos
as afraid of women who'll identify them
as beta cux"

http://btcbase.org/log/2017-11-13#1737268 <-- this. ftr, current adalisp prototype (not-yet-published and thus yet-vapourware!) represents "pointers"
as indices in a statically-allocated array.
diana_coman: apeloyee, my first thought went that way but then on one hand this just makes the interval larger basically and on the other hand I have no idea how to even evaluate the compromise (i.e. how large interval is large enough anyway, leaving aside that the how big is big enough for p and q is not that terribly clear either -at least not to me); in other words I can see it
as an improvement but I can't actually evaluate it clearly
a111: Logged on 2017-11-13 19:47 asciilifeform: and not '
as much
as you want' but up to B bytes, with B given on commandline and stackframed on warmup.
a111: Logged on 2017-11-13 19:36 asciilifeform: and rewrite the parser per se in scheme ( have it be present
as commented bytecode constant )

☝︎☟︎ a111: Logged on 2017-11-08 22:03 asciilifeform: not knowing the e has exactly same effect
as not knowing half of the n.
diana_coman:
http://btcbase.org/log/2017-11-14#1737414 <- confirmed; I do NOT use any nextprime or other "rng"-parts from gpg; current rsatron prototype simply grabs nbits from fg, flips the 2 top bits and 1 bottom bit
as per previous discussion and then checks if result is prime; if prime then keep, otherwise discard and try again; no "add 2 until prime" or other such thing

mircea_popescu: very important NOT to use any kind of nextprime,
as it turns out .
mircea_popescu:
as you'll reject the primes and end up with the same 2045 bits of entropy
a111: Logged on 2017-11-13 17:04 lobbes: Very accommodating d00d indeed. I invited him here,
as well, but you know how that goes
a111: Logged on 2017-11-13 15:09 asciilifeform: but you can trivially show that using the bottom bits in this way lets you actually get 4x
as many possible primes
a111: Logged on 2017-10-06 23:13 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.
diana_coman: yees, but conceivably there might be one in the future; if no knob then no point
as it were, entirely
phf: right, so that scheme.adb would benefit from a way to cons onto an arbitrary sized array, and then later someone can bolt a gc on top of that. can even implement it
as an explicit function call rather than a threshold thing
phf: like in php model? allocate
as much
as you want and then "free" on termination?
phf: there be dragons. i mean, if you're rewriting a parser in lisp, then you might
as well have proper readtables, rather then hardcoded sexp hack
a111: Logged on 2017-11-12 23:39 mircea_popescu: does an ada lisp ~even exist~
as far
as anyone knows ?
