Framedragger: mircea_popescu: yeah, point taken. summer is approaching, and with it, more time "i promise guyz"
Framedragger: asciilifeform: yeah sorta want to do that, too (never did it for some sad reason)
Framedragger: yeah, it'll be on the list of shit i need to blog about :/
Framedragger: i was getting incredulous with the first sentence description but my worries were soothed after reading that they're built on ethereum and that they had an I C O
Framedragger: > Melonport, the company behind Melon, had a very successful Initial Coin Offering (ICO), hitting its target of 227,000 ETH
Framedragger: > Melon is a protocol for managing digital assets that is decentralized, modular, transparently auditable, and low cost
Framedragger: got an email, "Kraken opens Melon (MLN) trading"
Framedragger: mircea_popescu: ah ok, i guess the issue is that the sig is part of binary blob, need to convert it, etc, hrmh
Framedragger: ben_vulpes: sorry for being obtuse, but if by 'show signature' you mean print signature in ascii-armored way, why can't you `echo 'foo' | gpg --clearsign > a.txt`, then `cat a.txt | gpg --encrypt --recipient recipient-username > b.bin`, then `gpg --decrypt b.bin`? (this assumes gpg is interactive and will ask for password, so best to break it into multiple commands)
Framedragger: wasn't sure what you were trying to do, sorry - you want to first decrypt a message, *then* check signature - but check how beyond 'signature is good'?
Framedragger: ben_vulpes: you want whole signature contents in cleartext? ya may be difficult with stock gpg. otherwise there's `--list-packets`
Framedragger secretly likes the guy's scifi. but, yah, point taken
Framedragger: anyway, it's true, not the most interesting piece; was relevant and lulzy enough for me; guess i'm timid
Framedragger: you do understand that you can use words descriptively and not normatively, right?
Framedragger: danielpbarron: iirc there's a scheme down there which allows for this, etc.
Framedragger: spoiler, it gets into nice examples of graph theory. but yeah, not the $badword!!1
Framedragger: like, that *the* thing you picked out. great, success
Framedragger: like any other place, this one's got their trigger words, too. careful not to read too much literature in case you segfault, trinque
Framedragger: myeah you can't randomly access things in the middle, etc. lol.
Framedragger: oh hah ok.. and he felt compelled to use his custom thing for those, too. ok lol
Framedragger: (hm, 'cpp_int' (part of boost's multiprecision module) is allegedly an arbitrary precision int lib, but whatever / maybe not applicable)
Framedragger: wait he uses boost right, doesn't boost have its own 'multiprecision' thingie a la bignum?
Framedragger: at first i thought "well for small ints it's just an additional nSize check which is retarted but whatever", but he writes the bytes himself regardless of int size and i'm sure compiler etc. won't be able to optimise much there
Framedragger: nice. so you have local pointers within given data structure (e.g. block) referring to starts of whatever-relevant-stuff? (i didn't even know that satoshi's code used variable length ints)
Framedragger: (also recursion forbidden, too, e.g. (in jpl c handbook) - all about predictable execution..)
Framedragger: did you already have a chance to check if there are any tx collisions in the 32 bit address scheme? just curious
☟︎ Framedragger: yeah! i imagine it's gonna be tremendous and yuge :) (but seriously, compared to userspace fs....)
Framedragger: yeah i wanted to ask how you managed to implement script stuff in this amount of time but i guess no need to parse scripts to have definitive view of all tx
Framedragger: mircea_popescu: ^ you can remove that sig_handler definition from fuckoff.c (as well as the signal.h #include) fwiw, as that that code won't ever be executed
Framedragger: i'm not too sure why you even needed a handler for HUP, it closes by default
Framedragger: asciilifeform: just fyi confirmed that in fuckoff.c, sig_handler() code is redundant as the function is not registered. (adding `signal(SIGHUP, sig_handler);` in main() changes behaviour and fixes this)
Framedragger: asciilifeform: unrelated - re. fuckoff.c, aren't you supposed to register that sig_handler() to kernel first (via invoking signal()) for it to even work?
Framedragger: we missed out on quality butthurt because they have a private safespace channel heh.
Framedragger: ben_vulpes: you may have a point i'faith. that said, _why_ is she so fat?..
Framedragger: mircea_popescu: yer outta teh loop, you're supposed to abstract it with the great framework of jquery, no i mean angular, no i mean backbone, no i mean ember, no i mean react
Framedragger: trinque: hah. only pure unfiltered rage - cleaner that way
Framedragger: i personally have a special place in my heart for the static content websites which refuse to render a single legible char without heavy javascript. not that the rendered text is full of glorious content, of course
Framedragger: pete_dushenski: wait they had GOOD REVIEWS ON YELP, omg HOW could they have failed
Framedragger: "the audience doesn't change, why should the food change"
Framedragger: well now that it's fixxord i'm certain it's smooth sailing from here on.
Framedragger: (right, this is basically *remote* probably-easy way to make it crash. nice knob.)
Framedragger: is there a way to short all these scamcoins easily? lol.
Framedragger: :D so, if not "thing block", then CRASH (`assert(0)`)? A THOUSAND EYES
Framedragger: mircea_popescu: i do. the inconsistency that my (naive) mind spots is the "eh empire is not powerful anyway" + "there is no current alternative for X than Y" in conjunction with "how dare you use Y!!!"
Framedragger: ...and all this is exposed to ecdsa and the particular parameters (secp256k1) not breaking... ouch.
Framedragger: "you using ssh-keygen, are you out of your mind!1"
Framedragger: luckily there's no conceivable way to forge "source ip" field in headers :p
Framedragger: then i retract my previous snappy remark. ssh lol.
Framedragger: (i wonder if he tried just-ssh'ing, no autossh first. because he needs to answer "yes" to "trust this fingerprint?" prompt first, it seems. just that.)
Framedragger: oh, did mp's client connect to server before, without autossh etc? need to confirm fingerprint
Framedragger: some suggest to try with stock openssh server, to see if same happens. anyway, curious if sshd_config on your end has custom knobs (e.g. prefers one crypto format over another), but i guess the whole thing's a timesink
Framedragger: then again, it'd be a more powerful filter to deter stupid people.
Framedragger: i won't insist - you're right, we've already just had that chat on #b-a
Framedragger: ..which means that the latter should be dropped eventually, i guess (but then cue my question 'why not just work on trb-i if no compatibility with heathen prb network')
Framedragger: i think it makes sense, thinking of the future, to eventually move to a model where there is no 'public trb node ip list'.
Framedragger: asciilifeform: btw regarding bitcoin, sure re. 1000 machines but if/when there's only 15 or however many trb nodes....
