ben_vulpes: what i'd prefer is
a text blob and detached signatures.
Naphex: well just sign the transactions and send em to
a stable node
Naphex: so why do you need
a wallet?
Naphex: what do you need
a wallet for?
mats_cd03: if hes not
a magician what is he? inquiring minds wish to know
Naphex: "Pope Francis declares evolution and Big Bang theory are right and God isn't '
a magician with
a magic wand'"
mats_cd03: kakobrekla: links on log1.b-
a direct to log.b-
a, which is down
jurov: right now im trying to diddle with mpex
a bit
bounce: probably
a lot of "make it work" thoughts, not so much about "make it robust against adversaries"
bounce: so you're stuck with
a booster no matter what then.
bounce: sure. but the question remains, why have
a booster at all? can't you run the thing off 5V directly?
punkman: "looks decent at
a glance"
assbot: Logged on 26-10-2014 21:44:02; asciilifeform: till we have
a gpg that clearsigns without escape char mutilation - we got this.
assbot: "we show that if an adversary is able to review this cryptosystem,
a simulator can be constructed which solves the halting problem"-ethereum
ben_vulpes: although i have
a hard time imaginging which customers of
a bezzletron service would touch btc. buying
a loss for the taxbooks doesn't make much sense with the blackcash.

assbot: Logged on 28-10-2014 06:51:56; punkman: if you base58decode the deed hash, you get
a sha256 hash of raw deed
Naphex: Almost all module functions depend on the basic function random(), which generates
a random float uniformly in the semi-open range [0.0, 1.0). Python uses the Mersenne Twister as the core generator. It produces 53-bit precision floats and has
a period of 2**19937-1. The underlying implementation in C is both fast and threadsafe. The Mersenne Twister is one of the most extensively tested random number generators in existence. However, being comple
Naphex: CheckDavid: you get more entropy from
a generator
Naphex: this is how entropy use from /dev/random looks like on
a SSL gateway (reasonable amount of connections/handshakes)
Naphex: if you're doing cryptography work (ssl, keys using randoms) and this value is below 200. you have
a problem to fix, fast.
CheckDavid: There's not enough entropy in the regular sensors of
a computer?
Naphex: CheckDavid: get
a server to do that soon?
RagnarDanneskjol: seems
a not so random source - I'd guess its thermal noise is within
a relatively narrow range
RagnarDanneskjol: ''Our generator makes random streams of bytes - they're generated by random quantum processes and/or thermal noise - they're don't however present
a perfectly randomly distributed bit stream''
punkman: do you have
a specific use-case in mind?
punkman: undata: looks decent at
a glance
pete_dushenski: mircea_popescu: listen, if smart people don't fuck whores, the poor girls are left with
a very poor impression of maledom << was reminded of this as i watched the sopranos today.
punkman: decimation: is there going to be
a 'reset' of the state of his deed 'knapsack' over time? <- it happened
a couple times during testing, hopefuly the lords will provide adequate space in the future.
punkman: if you base58decode the deed hash, you get
a sha256 hash of raw deed
punkman: that is
a deed hash, the "lite" bundle is all the deed hashes
mircea_popescu: how did you get 07014e56d4c34fb7962db64e2cdf5ebcd3f8eca891a0ea697cc5f46f55d1da9d ? sha of the raw deed +
a comma ?
mircea_popescu: "what do you mean the world didn't start
a day before i was born ?!?!!?!?!?!"
mircea_popescu: i think the one thing i can stand least about usians is not directly their ignorance, but their bald faced, undisturbedly firm conviction that being
a clueless git is
a-okay.
mircea_popescu: Actually, what you really need is
a platform that’s
a community of communities. Ideally with cleverly designed software that can handle each community’s individual epistemology (something like Moldbug’s idea of ‘factional reputation’
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform they didn't start as one. but anyway, either their cash runs out in
a few months or it does not.
pete_dushenski: "Arthur Levitt, the longest-serving chairman of the Securities and Exchange Commission, is joining the advisory boards of two bitcoin-focused companies. As an adviser to Atlanta-based BitPay,
a bitcoin payment processor, and Vaurum,
a Palo Alto-based bitcoin exchange for institutional investors..."
assbot: Logged on 18-06-2014 00:35:11; Mats_cd03: after 1 no pill
a day for 4 days during
a field exercise, i was literally full of shit
BingoBoingo: rifampicin seems like an exceedingly poor choice for
a colonocaust
undata: I come home from school and they've had
a shit war, hurled it at each other
BingoBoingo: Dude's colon is going to have more yeast than
a brewery
thestringpuller: asciilifeform: writing about it - another matter << reminds of the people who take lots of psychedelic drugs and put the doses, timeline, and effects in
a journal.
mircea_popescu: "In lieu of showering I sprayed myself with AOBiome’s custom skin bacteria blend. Body odor is caused by the emissions of proliferating skin bacteria, as unique as
a fingerprint. The Nitrosomonas eutropha taking over my skin now metabolizes ammonia into odorless nitrite and nitric oxide. Success!"
mircea_popescu: "Feces are almost entirely deceased gut bacteria and water. I massacred my gut bacteria the day before by consuming
a DIY Soylent version with no fiber and taking 500mg of Rifaximin, an antibiotic with poor bioavailability, meaning it stays in your gut and kills bacteria. Soylent’s microbiome consultant advised that this is
a terrible idea so I do not recommend it. However, it worked. Throughout the challenge I did n
ben_vulpes: obviously the answer is
a class with state safely segregated within it
ben_vulpes: just - find all the places in which there's
a testnet mention and try to figure out how to implement an off-network chain
ben_vulpes: if you dig into chainparams and main.cpp (iirc) you'll find such joys as the "stop generating
a chain after 1 block is found so that...reasons"
ben_vulpes: decimation: calling that
a patch is charitable - more an excision
gribble: Error: "gpginfo" is not
a valid command.
ben_vulpes: cvomposite - is that
a cvasi composite?!
mircea_popescu: decimation: why would anyone think it would be
a good idea to escape chars below 7 bits? << gpg escapes the dash because it uses
a dash-cvomposite as
a special char.
decimation: asciilifeform: on
a teletype it's easy to send ternary, just add another symbol
mircea_popescu: <decimation> there's something about trying to make one library to rule them all that attracts
a certain kind of busybody << word. this is EXACTLY the dynamic involved.
decimation: there's something about trying to make one library to rule them all that attracts
a certain kind of busybody
ben_vulpes: <thestringpuller> undata: it's unfortunate python gets
a bad wrap though, Djanga seems more stable than say node.js << RECANT
mircea_popescu: kakobrekla: funny, we have physical virtual coins, but most money is in fact virtual physical money instead. << it's all
a function of the small amounts of quantity involved.
decimation: I bought
a chip that puts out 1pps to discipline my ovenized quartz oscillator
decimation: i'm sure it will be very bright and visible if it is
a clear night
decimation: yeah there was
a boat in the 'no-boat' box
decimation: we need to move off irc and onto
a radio net
decimation: asciilifeform: they were gonna launch
a rocket tonight, visible from your house
mircea_popescu: we took the unit on
a sneakernet see what happens at everyone's house
nubbins`: you may be interested to paste
a passphrase and in your JS console, type $('#pass').val()
nubbins`: just put
a single "1" in the passphrase
mike_c: this has gotta be
a JS thing.
dub: someone swapped your CPU for
a potato
nubbins`: mircea_popescu i verified w/
a brainwallet generator i wrote myself
