phf: well,
then you have a hitler diddled copy, ironclad's
tagline always has been "entirely in common lisp"
phf: hmm, it's all ironclad's sha256. doing it with a dummy #(0 ...) digest drops it
to 4.6mb
phf: actually
that
time is
totally random, because it involves reading privkey out of /dev/random
phf: i suspect
that
the
text marshaling
that shell script does (as far as overhead over "pure c") is insubstantial compared
to otherwise demanding and ~~cpu level sha256
shinohai: At least asciilifeform was kind enough
to present
this in bash
ben_vulpes: asciilifeform:
the checksum should address
that, no?
ben_vulpes: i'm going
to have
to do it in ruby at
this rate
phf:
http://paste.lisp.org/display/327488 lamport parachute PoC in common lisp (it has soft dependency on ironclad for sha256, but otherwise follows
the design in
that own function can be substituted)
ben_vulpes: mircea_popescu: what do you like about b58?
the checksum should be all
that's necessary, right?
mircea_popescu: ben_vulpes i like base 58 and
the checksum. and i like
the little metal flaps on wrong side of saw
ben_vulpes would dearly like
to know how base58 is not another wart of pointless complexity
ben_vulpes: addrs have a bloody checksum; dafuq is
this "human mistake amelioration" crap
ben_vulpes: saturday
the first of october, in which ben_vulpes (re?)discovers
that bitcoin uses its own inane encoding scheme for addresses
phf: oh
that was entirely unfair
thing
to do, apparently a111 wasn't in limbo, but it's happy sept
to oct log rotation day
mod6: shinohai: o7
thank, /you/, Sir.
phf: only issue with
the regrind approach is clerical. it's easy
to keep
track of "this new
thing
that i don't have", much harder
to keep all
the "this old
thing
that i have is now new
thing" updates
phf: asciilifeform:
the blog post presumably will always link
to
the latest version?
ben_vulpes: in other open sores chuckles "The encoded strings in
the
tests were created with Andresen's unmodified code, so
they are correct. Probably."
mircea_popescu: i suppose. not like
the machine cares you know, it'll just collect
the patches.
mircea_popescu: if anyone ever hires bryan cantrill i wish
to see how will
they face me.
mircea_popescu: "While we would fire Ben over
this, node.js is an open source project and one doesn't necessarily have
the same levers." aka "we've not yet managed
to steal ben's work, but will posture as if anyway!!1"
ben_vulpes: "your gender equality mission is a cultural hegemony attack on
the embattled nerd culture, and
triggers all sorts of auto immune responses costing joyent and co millions in nerd productivity by inducing
them
to rage fruitlessly at
their keyboards"
ben_vulpes: i believe
that node.js and
the white house are undifferentiable flaming piles of shit.
mircea_popescu: "This isn't merely a legalistic concern (though
that
too, certainly), but also a
technical one: we believe
that empathy is a core engineering valueand
that an engineer
that has so little empathy as
to not understand why
the use of gendered pronouns is a concern almost certainly makes poor
technical decisions as well."
mircea_popescu: ~only by creating a new "department of office of authority of czar for
things and matters"
mircea_popescu: how do you
think
the places are ever fumigated, painted, etc ?
mircea_popescu: to install
them as
top brass in existing offices would a) mean
that women are disgusting cocksuckers ; b) mean
that niggers don't have
the right
to vote and c) prevent any maintenance work from ever happening in all of wash dc.
ben_vulpes: hmfic also wants
to install 'their friends' at managerial payrolls. wouldn't do at all
to bring
them in as
toilet scrubbers in
the 'white house communications agency'. 'but but i'm more important
to just be a cog in an existing organization -- we need our own new best shiniest!'
mircea_popescu: gotta make a new one for each new generation of fucks, because well, as seen recently
they have all
the social skills of a mollusc and so can't work with anyone else but "their friends"
mircea_popescu: it is
traditional in eastern
tyrannies for whatever ethnic group of
the new sultan
to drag in a whole clan from
the provinces.
ben_vulpes: thing came out of
the "marketplace" shitshow.
mircea_popescu: "I work for
the United States Digital Service." oh ok.
ben_vulpes: i see "lost",
think "what, lost account number?", i see "stole"
think "ahaha, what hilarious paper did gs swindle
the goatfuckers into buying
this
time?"

testing
mircea_popescu: anyway ; back in 2013, pre-republic, when idiots with
their hissy fits actually got people "teaching moments" ; compare and contrast with 2016, post republic, where francis rowe is about on par with roadkill for reputation.
mircea_popescu: shinohai note
that
the whole "talk privately" bullshit is VERY much how usgtardism spread.
they know
that openly pushing
the koolaid will get
them excruciated. but apparently esltards are VERY vulnerable
to 1 on 1.
ben_vulpes: come on brosephim. you're 'working' on node.js,
the very government shows up
to regender your codebase and you decide
to get uppity?
shinohai: V even solves
the problem of gendered pronouns in software development. Is
there anything it can't do?
trinque: but
the sauce looks like a quick read.
trinque: nah, I've only used it a few
times fiddling with routers and
things.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform not
terribly far off. node.js is ~same crud by ~same people.
mircea_popescu: it's a miserable anchor for identity,
this "ways we do
things" ; and for
that matter
the sort of brain
that doesn't
take well
to public discussion of
technology is fundamentally broken in ways
that should be addressed long before any
technological involvement.
