cazalla: speaking of black people, i was watching some notorious big music videos and it occurred to me, his weight looks average now, bit much to call him big by 2015 standards
punkman: decimation: I guess my question above (rephrased) is this: does the secp256k1 algorithm allow for any arbitrary 256 bit vector to be used as a key? Or is there a restricted set that will be more secure than other cases? <- exponent must be smaller than curve order, which is 0xfffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffebaaedce6af48a03bbfd25e8cd0364141
ben_vulpes: decimation: "street urchins" << https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vzT8EqhuYxA moar tenements, i say!

mircea_popescu: asciilifeform> and his (alleged) plan to buy back 'respectability' with money is uncharacteristically foolish << i didn't read any such plan in there. just, "i want money" "what for ?" "fuck you lol:
asciilifeform: picture if - the equalistas will step up their game now. i recall there already was talk of (soviet-style!) revocation of watson's degrees.

mircea_popescu: i thought you were kinda arguing both ends of a candle here :p
asciilifeform: for numeric wrangling, sure, i'll take 2014. see last week's thread.
decimation: I was pricing a nice wild-caught salmon from alaska, goes for $20 per lb at the cheap rate
decimation: asciilifeform: sorry, I mean factoring large composites :)
mircea_popescu: eh i don't have a lien on that.
asciilifeform: factoring large primes << l0l! i'll factor any large prime for you, free! limited time 0ff3r!
decimation: I can see why satoshi avoided using the nist curves, but using ecc in general was probably a bad move

undata: I intend to stay active creating software; I'd probably continue to work with americans
asciilifeform: no, it's always 'i'm gonna own an xxx and a yyy which will bring in...'
undata: I think you're right; it won't be a great thing abroad to be or have been an american
undata: maybe so, but I'd rather have something to struggle towards
asciilifeform: undata: i haven't the faintest clue about where you went (or will go) but most u.s. expats may as well be living back home, where they are.
undata: asciilifeform: I just want somewhere to sit and watch the bonfire
undata: I can; as for the rest, natural selection's a bitch
undata: +asciilifeform | mircea_popescu: most u.s. subjects don't have an obvious rational action to follow the awakening of 'aha so i'm living in a zoo run by demented vivisectionists, now i need to...' << make money and gtfo in my case
nubbins`: altho i did roast a pork tenderloin today

asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: because of the inevitable question, then, 'well what do i personally do now, seppuku?' that follows
mircea_popescu: <mats> i get the impression that most americans accept as fact that torture is ineffective << for sure. do you know what else they accept ? that "free markets don't work" and that "socialism is democracy" and all sorts of similar things. do you know why they accept them ? because they want to believe. 16 yo 7/10 valley girl also believes she's "beautiful" and that "she really has a chance". why wouldn't she, as far as

undata: I'm under the impression that many people in adjacent buildings saw it happen

danielpbarron: i don't listen to alex jones
danielpbarron: 03:37 <+undata> surely you meant to say "pentagon" << nope i meant the towers
thestringpuller: I can't take them seriously.
thestringpuller: is it weird that everytime I see someone talk about adoption and acceptance in an article I immediately think they are a n00b?
rithm: i feel skinny
undata: not that I'd be surprised if you sucked some other conspiracy theory on the towers out of Alex Jones' tailpipe
danielpbarron: I mentioned you because http://log1.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=07-12-2014#947359
asciilifeform: 'The CIA did not hold any detainees after April 2008.' << i've a bridge to sell ya.

undata: asciilifeform: I don't have any screenshots, but things like two boxes representing tables, each having things you can tap to select columns
