asciilifeform: !up robwhiz22
asciilifeform: parting gift, for the entertainment of the gentlemen,
asciilifeform goes off to catch the falling leaves of sakuras.
asciilifeform: robwhiz22: don't bother private-messaging me - i'm done.
asciilifeform: robwhiz22: at the rate you're going, you will have to pay folks to 'voice' you.
asciilifeform: here we sell groundhog oil only. 'bitcointalk' for all of your snake oil needs.
asciilifeform: that is, folks who are willing to take the time to understand the design - or are on speaking terms with a competent engineer, who will - before putting it to use in anger.
asciilifeform: incidentally, this is not a bad time to point out that 'cardano' and future s.nsa products are meant for adults.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: even so - it is good to have it.
asciilifeform: robwhiz22: take a moment to contemplate this.
asciilifeform: robwhiz22: so far the only thing you've convinced the people here of is - to add a bozo filter to the channel.
asciilifeform: robwhiz22: many if not most of the folks who bought s.nsa shares are likely here. go on and convince them that they are fools...
asciilifeform: robwhiz22: why not hush and wait for the machine. then collect 10btc (from me) and perhaps more from others, if you can reflash the unit without opening the case, through usb.
asciilifeform: Apocalyptic: i spent hours trying to explain exactly this to him.
asciilifeform: robwhiz22 is free to build his own 'cardano,' with hookers and blackjack.
asciilifeform: robwhiz22: you are the same kind of 'consultant' as the beggars who 'wash' cars at stoplights with dirty rags without permission and demand money
asciilifeform: robwhiz22: if you dislike public mockery, you can still remain a fool - just don't be a public fool.
asciilifeform: robwhiz22: you have exactly 30 min. - or until someone barfs.
asciilifeform: ty
asciilifeform: ;;up robwhiz22
asciilifeform: but, what the hell,
asciilifeform went for a year of irc without having to learn 'killfile' feature, now has to look it up in a hurry.
asciilifeform: he started out by wanting... wifi.
asciilifeform: <robwhiz22> The offer is not unsolicited - as quoted the cryptome announcement welcomes critiques, which you have now received.
asciilifeform: (that was him, five seconds ago)
asciilifeform: <robwhiz22> An ad hominem attack does not make your current design other than totally insecure and snake oil. It does not meet the usage case that was published, and is unfit for any purpose. You and Mr. Popescu can refuse my offer (of course) but the behavior I have seen in channel does not leave me surprised that you have missed your Christmas shipping time by 4 months.
asciilifeform: how come we don't get unsolicited offers from useful folks, like chinese soldering gurlz willing to work for btc.
asciilifeform: nubbins`: http://pastebin.com/gJXyvXgd << spaminator never tires?
asciilifeform: (yes pdf)
asciilifeform: https://www.cl.cam.ac.uk/~rja14/Papers/SEv2-c14.pdf
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: Ross Anderson's 'security engineering' ch. 14 'seals.'
asciilifeform: i often wonder when people will succumb to the temptation to... implant their keys.
asciilifeform: jurov: http://trilema.com/2014/mpexrfc1/#comment-98982 << i must note that i can't stop a determined idiot from pulling his ROM and stowing the key somewhere
asciilifeform: that was neat, bring it back kako
asciilifeform: http://www.infowars.com/breaking-sen-harry-reid-behind-blm-land-grab-of-bundy-ranch
asciilifeform: from the crackpot brigade:
asciilifeform: everybody blames the mice.
asciilifeform: it's him. he even confesses to preparing a new muppet in the end.
asciilifeform: loudly and abundantly
asciilifeform: it isn't hard to figure out.
asciilifeform: anyone who is curious what mr. spam wants should put on gas mask and read the turd.
asciilifeform: nubbins`: http://pastebin.com/mBLdFHzt
asciilifeform: nubbins`: that crap was him, one cycle of sockmuppetry ago.
asciilifeform: nubbins`: read the pastebin?
asciilifeform: mr. brokenrecord should pay.
asciilifeform: lol!!
asciilifeform: (don't be sad, it's replaceable!)
asciilifeform: though i still need to do a robotic stress cycle test on the cardano trigger at some point.
asciilifeform: last i checked gpg didn't wear out from use.
asciilifeform: what's next? 'lasers' command takes <target> ?
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: depends where the hobos now go.
asciilifeform: lol
asciilifeform: instead of being publicly flayed here
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: perhaps good idea - but now the hobos will go straight to your mail
asciilifeform: ;;google the man who was thursday
asciilifeform: (how? exercise for alert reader.)
asciilifeform: the other nice thing about tor is that the most ragged hobo can be nsa
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu might be keeping tor net alive single-handedly...
asciilifeform: fermi would smile
asciilifeform: ah yes
asciilifeform: what'd this one do ?
asciilifeform: fail.
asciilifeform: ;;google french anal safe
asciilifeform: a turd 'by any other name would smell as...'
asciilifeform: all the buggers had to do was rename it 'pki'
asciilifeform: all the noise people made about key escrow in the '90s - they swallowed it in the end regardless.
asciilifeform: as if ssl were useful if it worked as printed on the box.
asciilifeform: seekoority.
asciilifeform: what's the excuse for a blog using ssl anyway?
asciilifeform: ;;nailgun
asciilifeform: fluffypony: generally. reading, rather than writing.
asciilifeform: ;;google ascii shellcode
asciilifeform: a fun diversion, for those innocent of such matters:
asciilifeform: i'm one of the lucky (unlucky?) folks who uses x86 asm at day job.
asciilifeform: lol!
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: if you want the compiler to asm for you, vs. having to drop in a hex string and function ptr to it, compiler has to understand inline asm.
asciilifeform: anyone remember the 'magical decompiler' somebody planted in 'swag'? (actually the 'gold bug' virus)
asciilifeform: fluffypony: me. i still consult 'swag' for algos, once in a blue moon.
asciilifeform: because optimizing compilers are bulky - and require serious thought to write
asciilifeform: problem being, all 'small' lisps are interpreters (what nearly everyone thinks of all lisps as being)
asciilifeform: phun phact. msdos 'edit' is actually 'qbasic', with the basic ineptly commented out - in such a way that the code is still buried in the binary. ☟︎
asciilifeform: but, afaik, no 'adult' ansi common lisp
asciilifeform: there were many lisps of various descriptions for msdos
asciilifeform: e.g. lysenko
asciilifeform: there's a unique species of crackpot - the kind with actual power
asciilifeform: (ran off with taxpayer-funded 'macsyma' and hired some people to write a gui)
asciilifeform: it is worth noting that herr w. created his flagship product by 'pulling a bitcoinica'
asciilifeform: https://groups.google.com/forum/message/raw?msg=comp.lang.lisp/BUxXH76CYdc/IunywkAxufMJ
asciilifeform: etc
asciilifeform: http://trilema.com/2013/unsorted-collection-of-various-cardano-related-updates-spurious-pics
asciilifeform: i can't wait for this fellow's Amazing RNG Improvement ideas.
asciilifeform: as if an rng were a nuke, or any other rarity
asciilifeform: how many pictures of the damn thing have to be posted
asciilifeform: somewhere.
asciilifeform: see mp's essay about 'your wife changes into dog'
asciilifeform: i'd also like to add, for the edification of future spammers, that blatant sockmuppetry (switching handles every week) does not add credibility.
asciilifeform: no one can say i wasn't patient.
asciilifeform: http://pastebin.com/mBLdFHzt
asciilifeform: ok, for everyone who didn't catch it the first time i posted it,
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: he was probably speaking of greg chaitin's entropy.
