a111: Logged on 2017-07-20 15:49 asciilifeform: the need to use un-NATed boxes
as proxies, so that NATed boxes can speak with one another, creates star topologies
pete_dushenski: just because you're eating the liver, doesn't mean you won't find another source of food when it's gone or
as soon
as the aging father finally croaks. but this is a stretch analogy.
pete_dushenski: asciilifeform: i'm more inclined to liken the 'new' .il to that of 'new' china : sucks up resources of imploding empire for
as long
as the going is good all while increasing self-sustainability and military capability. israel might be socialist but they're nowhere near
as soft-bodied
as the decaying west. closer to .su-.cn hybrid than .su-.us hybrid.
a111: Logged on 2017-06-12 23:16 asciilifeform: ^ 'altalena affair' resulted in the switcheroo where the upstanding folx ( irgun et al, who held the position 'rm -rf britain' , were replaced by the internationalkomyooniti obedient muppet circus who ended up 'recognized' by said komyooniti
as 'israel'
mircea_popescu: twasn't, per se, "gotta have... corn!
as far
as the eye can see" in any way or in any sense other than the 1950s romanians being impressed with the ro commies "a LINE OF TRACTORS! 100 deep!!!"
trinque: just make the HTML coders all grow their own damn food, keep them occupied. not
as "envirowhiner" but "hands full, own life in them"
trinque: gotta have... corn!
as far
as the eye can see
mircea_popescu: (and ftr, the usians had been whining about it just about since ww2. rando with a "book" on the topic is about
as relevant
as pink.)
BingoBoingo: Mosquitoes are outdoor problem so you get to use BTi, which
as complex protein is harmless unless immune system is bored and decides to bake an allergy
mircea_popescu: anyway. they DID have this glare in eye liek exactly
as described.
as if they believed celestial mom and dad are preparing the feasrt for them, and they best but fidgetingly wait.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform the most amusing part is how they keep adding the official fiat value to the shit,
as if.
mircea_popescu: i sure
as fuck would prefer the situation where i have to change half dozen asm quarter-pages to go from x86 to whatever than the current shitwolrd offering.
a111: Logged on 2017-07-19 16:35 asciilifeform: i only know him
as a steady source of disconnectolade rubbish
mircea_popescu: curie happened
as the domestic slave of a male ; not
as an "equal partner" in a lesbo partnership.
mircea_popescu: these distinctions are
as important
as an yother distinctions in thought.
mircea_popescu: "the public" isn't happening anymore. democracy (
as the modernist nonsense) is gone.
mircea_popescu: if not in their original bodies, then at least
as emulated by pasty ass djb-wanna-bes.
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.
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.
shinohai: ave1 .... I got the same error
as you (Have not looked into it further yet though)
mircea_popescu:
http://btcbase.org/log/2017-07-19#1686438 <<< yes, because you're applying the pretense of statics to a dynamic situation. trinque 's metaphore is very much factual : we were paradopped on hot coals, by the FAULT, inexcusable, and indelible, of our parents. they should have taken care that we do not get dropped on hot coals,
as children barely able to move. they did not, and derelict in their first and practically speaking on
☝︎☟︎ sina: mircea_popescu: only
as a matter of curiosity, given your worth re above statement, do you take any of these actions?
mircea_popescu: for
as long
as you're running the "awl" there are no solutions for this -- just mitigations. do not permit micrphones ; do not permit antennas ; use inductor&battery arrangements ; shoot anyone seen approaching the solitary hilltop fortress and so on and so forth ad infinitum.
trinque: absent asciilifeform's expertise which gave ^
as output, one'd just turn that into a totem
sina: but that is not congruent with actions taken, otherwise all here would treat their keys
as compromised?
trinque: and meanwhile only sensible strategy would be to move quickly / step
as few times
as possible til off
sina: it's not an argument, only the next thought that pops into my head
as a consequence of the discussion. all here seem on the same page re constanttime stuff, yet all here are using the tool in spite of that, so there must be some thought process which allows someone
as reasonably paranoid
as asciilifeform to do so, i.e. "I am not concerned with timing attacks of class X, Y, Z from adversary A, B,C when I
sina: which is fine, and I guess my point, because you must understand there is some adversary which can read your keys and some which cannot and you
as of current, accept the risk
sina: right. so you use it, despite it being
as "awlish"
as anything?
sina: asciilifeform: if you would consider this question
as a continuation of that thread rather than repeat, I'd appreciate
mircea_popescu: because the processor clicks slightly
as it works ; and if you fork on secret bits you are thereby giving the secret bits away.
mircea_popescu: actual key recovery via acousting channel has been demonstrated recently ; power lines both in draw and
as antenna have long been known to leak key bits.
sina:
as commonly implemented
mircea_popescu: sina you mean, is there a side channel for constant time ops ? or for rsa
as commonly implemented atm ?
mircea_popescu: arguably not
as well made, either. the original had a lot of "boxes" and shit.
mircea_popescu: the discussion
as to height of towers and men in prison is apropos.
whaack: i'm not advocating one doesn't make an effort to learn, I'm just pointing out that the material covered does not "fit in head" (
as alf puts it) very easily and thus the main thing gotten from that book, for me at least, is the deep complexity involved with some of these schemes
mircea_popescu: well, whole point would be if the ugly fat kid would get the whole world to love him. but, fail that, picking and choosing which other's private keys can do what when will have to do
as a substitute.
mircea_popescu: but thart's ok,
as they actually breed the requisite sort of idiot themselves.
mircea_popescu: user705 inasmuch
as it's not an idea, yeah. they all have the same ideas, being the same item.
lobbes:
http://btcbase.org/log/2017-07-18#1686119 << This was exactly my case. I have same appreciation towards folx here
as ag3nt_zer0. I bought first btc at $20 for purposes of silk road back in early 2014. Price quickly shot up. Found tardstalk 'securities'. I thought "Wow, pretty graphs and charts. Lemme try and catch the next boat11!"
☝︎ ag3nt_zer0: asciilifeform... I just mean there is a lot of noise and this place seems to be the clear signal... and I say "seems" simply because I don't understand it
as well
as I would need to dispose of that qualifier
mircea_popescu: so now -- why owning a ferrari is nothing, unles you can DO things with it, such
as ride it around a clump of "your friends" ?
mircea_popescu: not simply because it empowers rapist-racist-pre-trump-trump-me, annoying
as that may be ; but because it puts in question the integrity of their valuation mechanism.
trinque: "I want to plan for my future,
as expediently
as possible." ?
ag3nt_zer0: will display the correspnding pubkey... if it did this and everything matched can I take this
as absolute that I am controlling and privkey will work when I want to send in 10 years?
mircea_popescu: that's one statement
as to why we dun wanna be socialist. I DON'T WANT MY ABSENCE OF MIND STRUCTURED MOTHERFUCKERS.
BingoBoingo: <asciilifeform>
http://log.mkj.lt/trilema/20170718/#143 << they're already 'eltsining' to death , with the good old bottle, no fancy dope needed necessarily << Not really, cars are too safe nowadays. With crumple zones it is hard to die
as a drunk driver and the other alcoholic deaths take time. Also many of them ain't wired right to properly drink selves to death. Somehow their brains signal "drunk enough" and then they stop, I have no
mircea_popescu: correct play, too. he really has no interest in putting in the work to try and salvage the nonsense ; and the pantsuits will have a hell of a time arguing that "we put on the books laws that don't work because we expect they can be constantly patched
as a matter of course -- and this is fine"
BingoBoingo: Well, there's manosphere community corners that promote the artificial testosteroning
as the exact thing girly birth control is. Except with cool weight gain.
BingoBoingo: Of all the fake testosterones, Tren is the one that doesn't require supplementing with testosterone in order to allow boners, so popular. Does work
as male birth control though.
BingoBoingo: Apparently according to his fake news outlet: "Most people know that online firearm sales create big loopholes that allow customers to bypass background checks—but who knew e-commerce pioneer Jeff Bezos was hawking guns like these?! The Amazon CEO and Washington Post owner showed up to an Idaho conference in a skintight T-shirt last week, displaying a set of arms most reasonable observers would classify
as assault weapons."
mircea_popescu: ie, people will drop ~a specific form~ of a stupid idea just
as soon
as it's literally beaten from their cold, dead hands, AND NEVER BEFORE.
mircea_popescu: (echo "obase=16" ; cat fct.txt) | bc >> fact-hex.txt works
as expected to convert btw.
BingoBoingo: badD00d: TRB now WILL accept segwit blocks, but it will not parse the segwit'd portion
as anything other than "anyone can spend"
mircea_popescu: the notion that bitcoin can somehow by stolen by name is so ridoinculous
as to betray its ustardian origins. bitcoin is not a name.
☟︎ mircea_popescu: if the us fed starts printing "one hundred bitcoin" bills instead of the current one hundred dollar bills, this'll also do ~nothing
as far
as nayone is concerned.
badD00d: I am wondering if you have an estimation
as to when this will be and
as a second questions (if TRB nodes will be the ONLY non-shit accepting nodes, or if you think there are other groups of people running nodes that will side with your nodes and continue rejecting shit
mircea_popescu: they're consuming teh fiat dollars
as it is, doesn't seem to have much impact on anything.
a111: Logged on 2017-07-17 13:32 asciilifeform: live is too short to attempt to use eyeballs
as diff.
floog: well, the intro seems all too relevant to my current situation
as a "software engineer" at a hightraffic clickbait website
deedbot: 7B308B69A7CD283E3B7549DBE9B833266594AD15 is already registered

floog: im trying to understand the purpose of V.from the python code it seems like some sort of interpersonal network tool, but that's about
as far
