asciilifeform: same ssl cert, too.

asciilifeform: which is a new turd, in the ssh turdlist.

asciilifeform: in re earlier thread,

asciilifeform: mod6: thread was how the problem indeed remains after 'no man'

asciilifeform: ( threat that leads pig to consider laying off the caviar )

asciilifeform: there is not a solution to this, if you will, binomial

asciilifeform: ( not for the naively 'obvious' reasons, but because folks who know that they will be made into 'latrine pig' tend not to surrender )

asciilifeform: historically folks tried to deal with the problem via elaborate impalements etc. but it was never satisfactory solution.

asciilifeform: it is in the pig's interest to soak up max caviar

asciilifeform: was my point tho

asciilifeform: which is what i meant by the fiction. no one will collect so much as a percent of what the lizards 'owe'.

asciilifeform: which does not turn to caviar as you eat him, no.

asciilifeform: pig ate - max you can do is to eat the pig

asciilifeform: hard to collect caviar that's already been eaten.

asciilifeform: this owing, it is not comparable to schmuck owing on his car loan.

asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: it'll die no sooner than american tax law. at this point there are 100,000 parasites who make cushy living purely from professionally navigating the kabuki.

asciilifeform: each of the N (moduli) listed is seen once, to date.

asciilifeform: or rather, of scenarios indistinguishable from them

asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: we found a megatonne of these

asciilifeform: it has not reached the maturity of tax law, but whet were once suppurating wounds are mostly covered in scar tissue now and the schmucks sorta live with it

asciilifeform: ergo the very peculiar 'mandatory trainings', 'hr processes', etc.

asciilifeform: the other thing about rms and his response - the 'sex harassment' racket has been a thing in usa for long enough that a well-developed body of kabuki ritual now exists; where, if an org can demonstrate that said kabuki were religiously followed, its liability is in practice limited to something survivable ☟︎

asciilifeform: http://btcbase.org/log/2016-09-21#1546197 << and hey, who said yudkowsky was the only player of the 'charilaundry' game. ☝︎

asciilifeform: http://btcbase.org/log/2016-09-21#1546195 << it even has a name, in their camp, 'nonattributable'. sometimes backfires - e.g., the mandatory use of rc5/6 in usg trojans, is now quite 'attributable' ☝︎

asciilifeform: http://btcbase.org/log/2016-09-21#1546187 << and Framedragger what's this ☝︎

asciilifeform: http://btcbase.org/log/2016-09-21#1546186 << wai wahat why would it ever be the same N ☝︎

asciilifeform: adversary is real, is is simply that his weapon of choice appears to cause death by boredom.

asciilifeform: reader is not expected to have ever heard of sybil, etc, or so much as given the matter five seconds of thought.

asciilifeform: trinque: notice the absence of any mention of the question of 'what are people'

asciilifeform: but, regardless, countdown 3, 2, 1.... to 'roughtime' in prb, ssl, etc.

asciilifeform: it's never 'maybe this relies on an unproven equivalence to rsa' and always 'let's million ecdsa sig per second on intel box'

asciilifeform: i keep hoping to run into one where i have to pour a cup of tea, scratch head, ...etc

asciilifeform: see, the disappointing part is that these are never serious puzzlers

asciilifeform: i will leave 'spot the wtf' as an exercise for the dear reader.

asciilifeform: and they have a wunderbar!1111 ntp replacement : https://roughtime.googlesource.com/roughtime

asciilifeform: usg reads the logz.

asciilifeform: well, guess who reads the logz

asciilifeform: sooooo in entirely other noose, fellas, recall the ntp mega-threadz?? e.g., http://btcbase.org/log/2015-07-09#1194173 ☝︎

asciilifeform: now i have not read the book herr woit is reviewing, but the review imho is not his finest moment.

asciilifeform: could it be time to lay off the 'кто был никем тот станет всем!1111' knob..?

asciilifeform: http://btcbase.org/log/2016-09-20#1546102 << dunno, the equalista whining, e.g., 'The effects of automated algorithms sorting and rejecting job applications, with indirect consequences of discrimination against classes of people. ... The effects of algorithms that score credit, determine access to mortgages and to insurance, often with the effect of making sure that those deemed losers stay that way.' is offputting. ☝︎

asciilifeform: (an 8ball of this size would indeed phuctor every modulus ever submitted, in polynomial time, supposing that you could somehow arithmetize on it)

asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: for some lulz, calculate how many planets would be needed to hold the 8ball that you briefly thought we had.

asciilifeform: and ftr i still have nfi why the bot dupes
