mircea_popescu: asciilifeform empire wants headcount, (because it sold itself on the lie of equality). gets headcount. except...
mircea_popescu: everyone, at any point, without exception got EXACTLY what they asked for.
mircea_popescu: that was, since i was a wee tyke, the one fascinating, ceaselessly fascinating aspect of the world : that for all teh chagrin and professed despair and broken dreams hopes and aspirations etcetera
asciilifeform: e.g., trump, with his 'encrypted chat' on ipnoje that leaks every fart
mircea_popescu: but hey, fair is fair -- everyone gets what he says he wants and then gets to wash his head with it.
mircea_popescu: something like that.
asciilifeform: keybasetronic 'crypto' is interesting parallel to, e.g., prb. in both cases the muppetmasters get to rejoice over 'user count' but weep when realizing that nobody of any import is in this count, and the net loot sums to 0
mircea_popescu: gotta have all female values, an' selective privacy is teh foremost on the list.
mircea_popescu: "the land is not built for equality", how about that one ?
mircea_popescu: somehow if you go "the collegiate dorm is not built for modesty" they, the very same they, go in an uproar.
asciilifeform still lolling over the 'the system is not built for privacy' gem
mircea_popescu: the brits however, losing more men to spying than to trenchlines in some days, nevertheless...
mircea_popescu: zee germans, getting it in every hole from teh brits, didn't really do much in the way of "shot british spy" photo ops.
mircea_popescu: it's funny how repeating this pattern is : whosoever is on the receiving end of the cock, whatever the cock may be, doesn't really want porn around.
mircea_popescu: still wrong ratio for the pretense!!11
asciilifeform: ( theatric op )
asciilifeform: most famously the d00d in the photo -- wasn't
mircea_popescu: was there an actual german spy shot in britain at any point ?
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform lol, considering how many brits zee germans shot for that...
mircea_popescu: in any event, the pretense of hey, we're just talking hurr isn't going to take one far here. if that wasn't obvious.
asciilifeform: where did the d00d even come from
deedbot: mircea_popescu updated rating of daffadil from 1 to -1 << lies conversationally.
asciilifeform: daffadil: thoroughly idiotic idea
daffadil: Haha yes. As the paper currently presents, the system is not built for privacy, especially if it uses publicly-indexed databases. However I thought that the idea of using mutational randomness as a physical process to generate private keys was interesting.
mircea_popescu: hey, they keep working to convince idiots someone somewhere would actually WANT to drink carbonic acid solution with 5k brix.
asciilifeform: just say no to faux otp, folx
asciilifeform: so nao naturally they'd like to trick some idiot, somewhere, into using their pre-indexed fauxotp as an otp...
asciilifeform: the real usgtronic gem here is that there's massive existing investment in 'this is a transform of SOME dna sequence, SOMEWHERE, now tell me which' hardware ☟︎
mircea_popescu: even in the particular that literacy is reserved for a precious few.
asciilifeform: this is == to the 18th century 'book cipher'
asciilifeform: hort identification numbers of the DNA sequences in the database. It is crucial to store the unique secure key in a highly reliable carrier and transmit it through a special secure channel to guarantee the correctness of the secure key'
asciilifeform: 'The advantage of this method is that a binary random sequence of any length can be easily generated from public or private genetic databases. An unlimited number of distinct random sequences can be obtained by multiplexing, shifting or concatenating sequences from different DNA species. To solve the major drawback of the OTP cryptosystems, key storage and transmission, Borda et al. proposed communicating the secure key through the s
asciilifeform: http://www.sciencedirect.com.sci-hub.cc/science/article/pii/S0303264717300539 << daffadil's link, for the dedicated entomologist.
asciilifeform: ( summary : ustards are fixated on 'escrowable' ciphers, as they were called in 1990s, but today they do not use the word . i.e. schemes for getting your privkey to be something THEY can access on a whim )
a111: Logged on 2015-04-02 14:59 asciilifeform: 'Identity-based encryption is a type of public-key encryption in which any arbitrary string (such as a user’s email address) can be used as a public key, enabling data to be protected without the need for long, randomly generated keys or certificates. Today, there are numerous standards for IBE based on Boneh’s work, including IEEE P1363.3 and several IETF RFCs.' << from the press release.
asciilifeform: daffadil: see also this old, lesser, horror : http://btcbase.org/log/2015-04-02#1084139 ☝︎
asciilifeform: only a ustard could have conceived of a gem like this.
asciilifeform: yes, totally want to leave UNCHANGEABLE privkey every time you take a shit
mircea_popescu: did you read the "whores moaning in orgasmic agony source of rng" thread ?
asciilifeform: hard to think of a more mindblowing idiocy
daffadil: This might be interesting to some: "DNA based Random Key Generation and Management for OTP Encryption"
jhvh1: asciilifeform: The operation succeeded.
asciilifeform: !~later tell ave1 have you ever used http://sabotage.tech 's musltronic linux ? or have any idea who maintains it ? invite'em here. ☟︎
asciilifeform: 'It's also interesting to note that some miners are signalling to orphan themselves. Antpool, BTC.com, and BTC.top are all signalling for BIP 91 with bit 4, but are not signalling for segwit on bit 1. This means that once BIP 91 activates, if they don't change their version number (and it seems that this is a manual process as most mining pools set the version number manually), they will be orphaning their own blocks under the BIP 91
shinohai: Which leads to lulz such as: http://archive.is/YKyYa
asciilifeform: meanwhile, in gavinlandia, https://archive.is/KOhTm >> 'Resolution is to either guarantee there are non-bit1 signaling miners before enforcing (kind of incompatible with the definition of 80% activation), or manually guarantee the the graph of enforcing miners is connected.' << d00d realizes that the softshitfork thing won't work without cartel... proceeds to demand one ☟︎
deedbot: asciilifeform updated rating of ave1 from 1 to 3 << gnatronicist
ave1: will do, I will probably create version of musl_cross that does all this
ave1: plus add ada to the languages to build
asciilifeform: ave1: consider writing down the recipe for this
ave1: if you get musl_cross, and replace the gcc-4.9.4-musl.diff therein with this one
ave1: of clean gcc 4.9.4 from FSF to a gcc 4.9.4 that build with musl + gnat ☟︎
asciilifeform: of what is the diff ?
ave1: ok, this is the diff (also contains musl diffs from musl_cross)
ave1: one moment, I will look for the diff
ave1: yes, but mainly because the gnat makefiles hardcode the gnattool names at different places ☟︎
asciilifeform: it was on my conveyor and promised to be a very gnarly chore
asciilifeform: ^ interesting, i'd like to see this
ave1: I like to default it to building static files binaries ☟︎
shinohai: Very resourceful, thank you
ave1: p.s. the portage ebuild does exactly this (plus some gentoo patching)
ave1: copy gcc-interface-* to gcc-4.9-*/gcc/ada/gcc-interface (so rename of dir)
ave1: copy gnat-gpl-*/src/ad to gcc-4.9-*/gcc/ (so you get an ada dir under gcc)
ave1: unpack all tree
shinohai: ave1: Can you link me to the adacore sources that worked for you?
ave1: ok, I will do some more banging against the wall on this
asciilifeform: the confiscation of gnat from the idiots is inevitable. may as well begin with this.
ave1: and gcc 4.9.4 does so, but the adacore code has problems
asciilifeform: ave1: gonna have to patch , then, and cure the retardation.
ave1: p.s. I want to throw it out, but I like to have a version that cross compiles to ppc64le
ave1: asciilifeform, how did you get your 4.9 version (I see two version in gentoo) ?
ave1: (but the 4.9 gcc from adacore does not match any 4.9.* release from FSF) ☟︎
ave1: I can build a gnat using the sources from adacore and all is fine
asciilifeform: anyway if your gnat does this, it is rubbish, throw it out, i will not be v-releasing an ffa where everything is not inlined, each non-inlined routine is a ~10% speed ding.
ave1: (and GPL 2014 and gcc 4.9.4 are the same)
ave1: well I went to the source code of 4.9.4 and GPL 2015 and it differs on this point ☟︎
asciilifeform: ave1: can't be the reason, i have it working on 4.9
ave1: yes, it seems that FSF gnat (the one in gcc) is not updated recently and for some reason it's really hard to compare version numbers between all the different gnats ☟︎
shinohai: ave1 .... I got the same error as you (Have not looked into it further yet though)
ave1: (like the Mul functions...)
ave1: It seems that version has problems with inlined functions containing inlined functions
ave1: (also in gcc 5.*, I've not looked in the 6.* range)
ave1: Turns out the version of gnat in gcc 4.9.* is based on GNAT GPL 2014 (from adacore)
a111: Logged on 2017-07-16 02:00 mod6: asciilifeform: here's what I get when I grab the generic Makefile, and use your fact.tar.gz: http://p.bvulpes.com/pastes/RaNYu/?raw=true
ave1: I also get this problem: http://btcbase.org/log/2017-07-16#1684855 ☝︎
ave1: mod6, asciilifeform: I've been playing with GNAT versions and the fact code
lobbes: BingoBoingo: <lobbes> damn. looks like my plans for my old craptop being a trb node will have to wait until I secure better iron. << Why can old craptop not eat SSD? << wtf I didn't even consider this. And yeah, this'll be a great opportunity to clean out the physical crap that's probably choking out the airflow in the thing.
BingoBoingo: Nah, was old woman. Sent to hose herself.
mircea_popescu: you just wanted her to splash hose water on her tits.
BingoBoingo: Product nothing seriously toxic, just permetherins and fuller's earth but still.
BingoBoingo wonders how reactive a hand santizer would have to be to reliably convert most organic compounds to "safe" forms. Likely would look like a hand solving vat of H2SO4 + H2O2
BingoBoingo has met people who after touching granular pesticide barehanded tried to insist "hand sanitizer" was sufficient cleaning.
asciilifeform: it isn't like you gotta clean it with own tongue
BingoBoingo: Well, this is the story of how the puritains ruined America. "It dun work" "Have you tried cleaning it?" "STFU Imma not touch the filth" ... Disposable everythings
mircea_popescu: or in other words, innocence and drunkedness are, in that order, the superlative degrees of unhygienicity.
mircea_popescu: well certainly people who don't know they come apart don't regularly anything.
asciilifeform: ( am i the only one who still cleans these regularly ? )
mircea_popescu: a sentiment i can sympathize with -- no better way to ruin the day of cleanfreak chick than making her open up her years-old laptop.
mircea_popescu: possibly he doesn't want to pop the lid.
BingoBoingo: <lobbes> damn. looks like my plans for my old craptop being a trb node will have to wait until I secure better iron. << Why can old craptop not eat SSD?
