mircea_popescu: i don't recall how long it's been, but i've been happy enough emailess
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform the nonsense of keeping lists of enumerated badness that a) are obscure and b) are poorly maintained... srsly, random costa rican home ip ? these people live for what, 4 months in the same place ?
mircea_popescu: maybe what we want to do here is actually get 11936 bit keys, and forever 1492 byte udp.
mircea_popescu: much like with bitcoin you're throwing away half the energy.
mircea_popescu: but yes, the bojum is that with rsa you're always throwing away half the bandwidth.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform no see, 4kb key, 4kb message consisting of 2kb plaintext and 2kb padding.
☟︎ mircea_popescu: considering the fucktarded shah of brunei, even, had the most ridiculous problems with women vaguely reminiscent of us army grunt.
mircea_popescu: and for all the arabic pretense, i'd be somewhat surprised if there's one guy in the whole country whose harem can toe to toe with mine.
mircea_popescu: their problem is the population, consisting of a half black slaves, and the other half donkey fuckers, neither of which possessed of enough sense to come out of a paper bag if it rained scissors.
mircea_popescu: and in other lulz, managed to mount a " ", which is now unmountable.
mircea_popescu: meanwhile in lulz, "* You are banned from this server- You have a host listed in the DroneBL. For more information," YEAR OLD listing in some obscure bs "database".
☟︎ mircea_popescu: but, yes, alf has a point : meanwhile read up ~on tcp~. despaired.
mircea_popescu: "worst thing for trying to maintain websites is that udp exists"
mircea_popescu: however, the position is not 20 byte. idea is for eulora to make do with ~6.
mircea_popescu: we don't do shit for any other reason than because "alternatives were reviewed, this came out".
mircea_popescu:
http://btcbase.org/log/2018-09-27#1855041 << this is so, "here's a complete model" is a periodic necessity. just you know, can't complain that "not there jit when i wanted it". but yes in general, ur examples must be had, fully functional model trains must exist, etc. otherwise how to even run academia.
☝︎ mircea_popescu: Die Kais’rin hat sich mit dem Franzosen alliiert und das Römische Reich gegen mich revoltiert. De Russen sind gefallen in Preußen ein, etc etc.
mircea_popescu sitll goign through teh logs. apparently going out for a few hours IS UNSAFE
mircea_popescu: dunno how many people keep that around though. i don't think it'd be a crime or anything to make a command-line keccak branch off of it, so people can just press to that if they want.
mircea_popescu: re stand-alone hasher : useful in general (for reason alf describes) even if not strictly needed for v work ; the only way to get one i know of atm is via eucrypt.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform through whatever they like. it's their fucking friends, neh ? sometimes gaming i'll speak acrossd table / yell across room w/e. my fucking harem, my fucking business.
mircea_popescu: kinda weird for a restaurant to also attempt to provide phone service for the patrons. what, they can't carry phones inside ?
mircea_popescu: even if you do voices, client should acquire the asset and cache it.
mircea_popescu: not including here asset transfers ; merely the "bread and butter" so to speak.
mircea_popescu: but anyway, imo if mmorpg needs > kb/s connectivity something's misdesigned somewhere.
☟︎ mircea_popescu: i don't really want the traffic to go much over the kb/s range
mircea_popescu: truth be told, on the internet-as-we-thought-it-was, video on demand'd have been a miracle.
mircea_popescu: apparently some parts of the internet DID get better over time.
mircea_popescu: that whole "1 packet per burst makes it" was very much "well doh, 1 gets sent at all"
mircea_popescu: (and when didn't made it -- local interface dropping was the likely culprit)
mircea_popescu: but yes -- the test can (and likely will) be tightened. for starters we just wanted to get a sort of "absolute path limits". and THESE do indeed turn out to be further out than originally thought -- 2kb packets make it np unfragged and in order 100% of the time, and even 20-60kb packets made it.
☟︎ mircea_popescu: though in general can have interface log outbound, say.
mircea_popescu: in the worst case, capture the flow upstream and see if the box actually puts out the packets ?
mircea_popescu: early proto-test indicated most of the lossage happens before 2nd hop
mircea_popescu: because we're not really into measuring shitty nat routers on cisco customer walls per se.
mircea_popescu: just makew sure you put something in there to distinguish "my interface is shitdrops on the floor"
☟︎ mircea_popescu: asciilifeform wanna run one with .1 s or 10ms ? that might be a good move.
mircea_popescu: and diana_coman or hanbot or who will you pick have little problem in turning over next-day keccak patches on trees, as recently put on display. i don't think they're either smarter or blesseder than you, they just have the toolset ready.
mircea_popescu: so then. phf did a new ~vdiff~. and a very good one at that, from all i can see.
mircea_popescu: and bidirectional is good imo, i half expect to discover parity between lastmile->dc and dc->lastmile directions.
mircea_popescu: nb. let it run for a few weeks if you will, so we have nice datasets to work on
mircea_popescu: restaurant served me complete pie, but body shop did only paint the preexisting car i supplied them with.
mircea_popescu: as things grow, upgrades by parts become a matter of necessity.
mircea_popescu: standardized tools -- for mcdo cashiers. actual craftsman, responsible for his toolset, which nobody inspects for him but himself.
mircea_popescu: yes there's nothing wrong with people publishing toolsets ; but this can't become a fucking expectations wth. craftsman -- has toolset.
mircea_popescu: you realise, i'm not going to go "here -- use THIS .emacs". not in this life.
mircea_popescu: that alf manages to do this naturally and with i suspect no malice aforethought (or anything else aforethought at all) is in a sense supportive of the hopes of humanity -- apparently ignorance breeds the nonsense on its own, no "dark lizard" behind it all needed.
mircea_popescu: but yes, the obnoxious part about the ignorant approach is that it purports to "identify as problems" the speciffic parts that are both well designed and functioning as designed, ie specifically the hash transition.
mircea_popescu: sadly there's no simple/just-add-water way out of "i've been ignoring this whole thing for x interval, wut nao". nao -- pick up from where you left off, what.
