mircea_popescu: the drawback is that now you mix game code into crypto lib, to discriminate possibles.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform right but it seems to me trivially easy to select among 4 possibles seeing how you know "this is a game packet, gotta have so and so serial and so and so id etc"
mircea_popescu: aactually... i guess i should've left that as a comment on the article in q. brb.
mircea_popescu: a skill that'll prove most important in their own fucking country, last i heard all the fuckable women they grew locally they exported
mircea_popescu: and it turns out qatar is actually more important for india than india itself realises : it's where the aspie indie elite goes to learn to be "gay", ie, "i can't get any cunt anyway, might as well get used to living with another dude, wardrobe as well as everything else comes cheaper this way, cheap enough in fact for even scum like me to get some".
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform i dunno that'd be the end of the world. part of the problem of the usecase (eulora comms) is that you have highly structured inputs.
mircea_popescu: the traditional romanian "o fut pe ma-ta" seems particularily crafted for the occasion of interacting with pantsuit. because, literally, io asta fac : le fut mamica.
mircea_popescu: "act like a normal nation" aka "don't be a sociopath/psychopath" aka "please recognize incan notions of Holy Mother and Her most reserved role in the playground".
mircea_popescu: "It’s not that everything closes, or even that most things close. Just wherever you are going will be closed." << fucking orcistans, all alike.
mircea_popescu: they don't got the guts to qatar/burma anymore, that's for damn sure.
☟︎ mircea_popescu: besides, what's a mocky needed for, i got a corp and everytrhing right there
mircea_popescu: timis is (or rather, was) the larger part of serbja keks.
mircea_popescu: most of hungarian culture is the result of cluj people. when i say transylvania is the larger part of two adjacent countries i kid you not, it's true.
mircea_popescu: and yes, personally knew father. sorta like that other google guy.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform ubb = universitatea babes bolyay. cluj item. old man andreica's son was at teh politechnic. diff school.
☟︎ mircea_popescu: a little boy rubs a found bottle, and asks the genie coming out... what ? what can you ask ?
mircea_popescu: in other news, the immensity of republican priviledge, you know ? here we sit and, with-subject-and-predicate, piss downwards on the entirety of academia, like so much midly retarded children playdo "art".
mircea_popescu: in fact, everything but the dog pissing their dreams into magic smoke, is female.
mircea_popescu: that's ok, because while nadia waits the future is female, and once "nadia's done waiting" then it ALWAYS HAD IT.
mircea_popescu: you recall those cases of calcified foeti, 30+yrs old, from early modern surgery reports ?
mircea_popescu: (i don't blame wife, either. what's she to do, stuck with big child ? nurture, nurture.
mircea_popescu: can\t even say i blame the peterls / peteds/etcs all that much. they're like those fish, found large female blob to attach to, dispensed of organs etc, now she pumps nutrients.
mircea_popescu: same fundamental problem, "hey man, i just derp here, it's just a gig, it's not my life" issues.
mircea_popescu: the truth is that there's a bunch of reasons people will follow you / come to your house / whatever. and there's this recurrent element of "why can't everyone just get along / this is what we're all doing" sorta thing.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform it's literally, "not band practice anymore, now art class". different locker for your shit, but still a) locker and b) some shit. guitars, make-up, whatever. props.
mircea_popescu: it's what THESE other-goth-kids do. what was the draw originally ?
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform hey, it's all a big highschool cafeteria party, and one gets to pick and choose "his way in life" etc. it all follows, from the insane perspective, its own insane logic etc.
mircea_popescu: in other news, this rapidly deteriorating day (it fucking rained on me at the beach, on TOP of serpent being as tight as hilary's ass) was saved by my ... 404 mn ecu pop in Eulora. very high % valuyable shit, too!
mircea_popescu: i suppose the only moral being... "opressed groups are opressed for a fucking reason".
mircea_popescu: "nobody understands us" and "our very existence is threatened, inasmuch as it entirely consists of... our inability to handle broad disinterest wrt our dysfunction".
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo right, which is the point : minority group is opressed and wanks accordingly.
mircea_popescu: the "safety" being, of course, little expectation to run into a "wtf are you on about, you just multiply, what's to understand".
mircea_popescu: it's exactly like an imaginary situation where the math flunkies agree to call exponentiation "expies", strictly for the reason that this way, if anyone ever says "expies" they can SAFELY (!!!!! important point here !!!!) go into a "omfg how about those expies they're so incomprehensible!!!" routine.
mircea_popescu: i'm not saying the pantsuit's creative or anything. i'm just amused at how fucking awkward they can get, srsly, need special words for things that only other similar idiots would be using so as not to risk conversation with someone not similarly fucktarded ?
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform eh, for every eventual hot topic item there's 5k groups-of-friends who think they invented it.
mircea_popescu: in-group signalling, obviously someone not in-group would not say "drumpf" just like that.
☟︎ mircea_popescu: meanwhile in other pantsuit lulz, the emerging convention is to call trump "drumpf". because, see, if someone does, then the repressed awkwardsuckers in the audience know it's SAFE!!!
mircea_popescu: ok, i need to go get some sleep, this is getting ridoinculous.
mircea_popescu: [bit:31] = (a18 x a28 x a30 x a8 x a9 x b19 x b29 x b7 x c18 x c30 x c8 x d18 x d19 x d28 x d29 x d30 x d8 x d9 x e19 x e29 x e30 x e7 x e8 x f18 x f19 x f28 x f30 x f8 x f9 x g19 x g29 x g30 x g7 x g9 x h18 x h28 x h30 x h8 x h9) ?
mircea_popescu: though it seems on some level this is a religious behaviour, "very easy to come up with ideas very hard to evaluate them". well... something's defo broken then!
☟︎ mircea_popescu: to use it as a cipher i'd do a K exchange and then f(P-1) xor P = E. where P-1 is the previous message.
mircea_popescu: is cut up into as many whole chunks of equal size to K as possible and the resut of their xoring together is the new K. stateful prng.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform ok, how about this : let K being the key n bits long (say 512), and let f(x) = 2 * K[0] * x ^ n + 3 * K[1] * x ^ n-1 + 5 * K[2] * x ^ n-2 + 7 * K[3] * x ^ n-3 + 11 * K[4] * x ^ n-4 +...+ 3643 * K[n-2] * x ^ 2 + 3659 * K[n-1] * x + 3659. f(x) will produce a pile of bits, this pile is cut in half and xored together, the result is cut in half again. one such half is returned as the prng output ; the other such half
☟︎ mircea_popescu: yeah ; and it'd better not be, the floor keeps crumbling underneath.
mircea_popescu: i suppose that could be the backup alternative then : if we end up ditching serpent, we use a rsa packet to move ~1.4kb of entropy for initializing the mt, and then use mt generated pads for a cipher.
