mircea_popescu: y. one
tends
to go around naked and slather peanut butter on himself,
the other
tends
to behave as if
the panties were glued on,
there's really no substantial difference.
mircea_popescu: anyway, re other point : i dun believe
there is such a
thing as an autodidact. everyone
that knows anything learned
that
thing,
themselves. no one can learn outside of an environment, and
there is no deeper relevancy
to convention of
the
time
than
that -- convention of
the
time. dude who learns in dark room is going
to be weird one way, girly
that learns in room with other girlies and
teacher is going
to be weird
the other wa
mircea_popescu: look at
the euler curve all you want, it dun satisfactorily resolve it.
mircea_popescu: i wasn't
thinking of anything specific, past
the indeed kindergarten intuition
that
there's more
to
the
triplet
than we figured out.
mircea_popescu: deride, deride, but half
the world's magic works on
this!
mircea_popescu: what ~else~ can i predict, and looking at what exactly inside
the
two factors ?
mircea_popescu: also incidentally : what is
the relation between arbitrary modulo, factorization, and reducing mults
to adds ?
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform i imagine he means
that it overflow between
the exp and
the modular steps.
mircea_popescu: incidentally : "define *' so
that modx(a * b) = modx(a) *' modx(b)" should be a legitimate abstract algebra approach.
a111: Logged on 2017-05-17 22:08 asciilifeform: 'This year, I’ve been
thinking about prime numbers, and my hosting provider has run another sale on domain names. So, I’ve bought isthisprime.com. You can probably guess what I’ve made it do.'
ave1: Yes, I understand, it would add n bits
times m ops where n is 4096 at
the minimum (already
the pow
takes a lot of
time with
the MUL and SQR in
there)
mircea_popescu: so
the whole hiding song and dance has nothing
to do with anything.
ave1: asciillifeform: ah, I understand I will do some more
thinking on
this, having a div after
the mul and sqr would be less ideal, but an arbitrary modulo sqr and mul would be interesting
mircea_popescu wouldn't be in
the slightest surprised if all
this "big data" utilization is 0.0000 ppm.
mircea_popescu: way
the fuck easier just pretending like
the hairspray
tubes are REALLY mics. google makes
this easy now.
mircea_popescu: problem of modernity is nobody wants
to listen.
that nobody has anything
to say worth listening
to is obviously sufficient cause for
that ; but
the nobodies in question would much rather approach
the problem from
the former horn
than
the latter. good god, having something
to say worth listening
to sounds like it'd
take effort.

trust
the back alley guy
to only give me
the
tip; it wouldn't be nice if he wasn't honest about it. but if he said he'd fuck me in
the ass from
the get go, i guess
that's ok")
ave1: I've been working on SQR, but although I can lower
the number of steps,
the operations per step go up, so far only 10% overall speed-up
ave1: Plus I assumed modulo was
to be on
the FZ size, arbitrary module would involve a IDIV at
the end (or mask if module will be some power of 2)

tell ave1 your mod-exp is just an... exp. and what was mcarry for ???

to stock up on lube beforehand, ammirite?

☟︎ shinohai: I see
this making
the n-gate roundup for
the week
Framedragger: "According
to Google, it will only send voice data back when it hears
the keyword. Now if it explicitly goes against its own stated privacy policy,
that's a breach of
trust I would not be happy with.
That said, if
they explicitly stated
they send all audio back, I'd actually be fine with
that
too."
Framedragger: just HN
things - on google home (the "send all audio
to google" appliance): "I have one, it's convenient and lets me control my home in what feels like a natural way. Personally, I don't see
the downside of having it. Note; I mean I don't acknowledge a downside from my perspective. I'm fully aware
that it's always listening and sending data home when it hears a keyword."
ben_vulpes: holding
this vulnerability secret is doing such wonders
shinohai: A frozen chicken
tender lovingly heated by Mom in
the microwave before opening
the second bottle of vodka.
shinohai: "Mom sends down
tendies @ 7pm sharp, can't ready during
THAT hour."
shinohai: Might cut into
the reddit posting
time
shinohai: Well despite
the fact it
took me what felt like eons, i did read ref client src when I started fiddling with
trb.

☟︎ BingoBoingo: Gotta put future generations in
their place and discourage grave robbing somehow
BingoBoingo: Set in yard, build outhouse over, when ground
threatens
to overtake door close and leave gift for archaeologists.
BingoBoingo: Or self burying
trash dumpster,
take your pick
BingoBoingo: <asciilifeform> i haven't got 1 surface
that wouldn't auger in under
that
thing, and
that includes
the mud liquishit
that is
the 'yard' << Maybe you want have vault so it augers and sinks? Self burying
treasure chest!
ben_vulpes: me neither, but i still happily
tear up lawns, emplace shitboard sheds
ben_vulpes: makes
the pacific northwest sound like a not entirely miserable shithole,
the place where you live
jhvh1: shinohai:

BingoBoingo: <asciilifeform>
they also had a 2tonne safe, for some reason , in
the back, and willing
to let it go for cheap. but asciilifeform has neither flatbed nor crane nor concrete plinth. << Such
things can be rented, ~300 - 700 for combination for whole day
ben_vulpes: log cabin not yet built;
train station operators pay for heat and a/c.
ben_vulpes: i still
trek into
town, but more for hysterical raisins and camaraderie.
ben_vulpes: asciilifeform: far from free, but
the new party is a good one.
ben_vulpes: well he's liquidating
them for a reason, neh?
ben_vulpes: eh, i'll settle for jewing my little brother down over
the nsa backdoors in his gaming rigs
mircea_popescu: now quick
to firesales
to buy more shit
to weigh down your pockets!
a111: Logged on 2017-03-20 04:02 ben_vulpes: more specifically, "assuming one wants a car shop for purely emotional and recreational reasons, how
to determine what
to pay for it?" "calculate hardware liquidation price, discount four years of cashflow declining by 10-30% a year
to
today, and offer a dime over
that"
