Framedragger: i wonder if a simpler key-value store wouldn't work as a replacement for dns server. "flatten" the whole thing, so that, as you say, dns server wouldn't distinguish between types of substrings. the latter would be up to the client, if it willed to do so.
mircea_popescu: yeah, what can i tell you, as ingenious as walk. 10s of ks of years old.
Framedragger: the whole "patch a DNS server and run alternative root" effort sounds interesting and useful, but, as you said, eventually the underlying layer would need to swapped for gossipd anyway. in gossipd, UDP/TCP as currently used by DNS may not even work. hence there may be a redundancy of effort;
mircea_popescu: it doesn't "delegate", it caches. you know, like in sanity land, as opposed to some bs hacked together by people who didn't go to school for cs 30 yearsd ago.
mircea_popescu: it is up to your client to decide if the domain "Pwgaf,H6X/LJ8yt..OLjoNn+kyfFsOG5a?FpPbf!uxOS6" should be queried as "Pwgaf,H6X/LJ8yt..OLjoNn+kyfFsOG5a?FpPbf!uxOS6" or "OLjoNn+kyfFsOG5a?FpPbf!uxOS6" or ".." or "nasa.org" or whatnot. dns just answers queries, and nothing else.

Framedragger: "His "reactor" ended when the EPA declared his backyard as a Superfund cleanup site due to hazardous levels of radiation." oh yeah i remember reading about that! hm. so, radiation kills, then. RIP boy scout.
Framedragger: this is fine as long as it's made clear in regards to ownership etc.; but it does put some additional responsibility / ontological charge(?) onto folks who'd own a TLD
Framedragger: http://btcbase.org/log/2016-11-13#1566874 << re. republican dns root (i think this term is not ambiguous), as far as i can see, if bob owned .whatever TLD and john owned john.whatever SLD, then queries for john.whatever would still "pass" through bob's .whatever zone file. ☝︎☟︎
asciilifeform: (the modulus belongs to something labeled as 'Seclab Signing Key 2016 <seclab@airgapped.sec.t-labs.tu-berlin.de>')
a111: Logged on 2016-11-13 23:35 mircea_popescu: but yes, congratulations are definitely in order for alf's foresight in implementing phuctor as he did. w/o the 8ball that module'd have never fallen.

ben_vulpes: is there any reason one couldn't host 'com' as a domain, absent the crown concessions?
mircea_popescu: cludes those with special expertise, as well as members of the foreign service, and other civil servants." ie, "your whole delusion of existence is predicated on experts supporting it".
mircea_popescu: in other lulz : https://archive.is/am4m2 coming from the future (i think nov 21st is still next week right ?) one Amy Davidson makes exactly the argument for tmsr, just somehow insanely applied to the progre party. "The more interesting question is how people in political life approach what they may regard as a duty to serve their country, whoever the President may be, while preserving their dignity and their decency. This in
ben_vulpes: same as t'other
mircea_popescu: hey. true social mobility ; as opposed to the factitious sort the usg promotes.
Framedragger: incidentally, iirc apple does have a key for security@apple.com or somesuch; would be amusing if later on, a 'security' intern at apple (who was the one to create the key as nobody else bothered with it) came forward..
asciilifeform: 'disposable,' patchable pwnholes are not quite same thing as iron backdoor.
mircea_popescu: i am not concerned with the pretense of fiat orgs, not even so much as to regard a supposed "continuity" as relevant.
mircea_popescu: the republic, here as everywhere, now as always, forces a certain mode of life. where people matter ; where individuals rule ; etcetera.
asciilifeform: i do not expect to personally live to verify this guess, but i suspect that the chinese will remember the 1980-20xx period as something akin to the opium wars
mircea_popescu: so far as can be seen their investments worked judiciously.
asciilifeform: as in, infected with same syphilis, and will go to same place.
ben_vulpes: don't even care how inconvenient the backup is so long as it works
mircea_popescu: all i see is a wanna-be tucker max. is that guy famous as 3 fucks so she can be famous as one fuck or what ?
the_scourge: mircea_popescu: dude she's famous as fuck!
the_scourge: ah deedbot uses the same userlist as assbot!
the_scourge: asciilifeform: azov takes Swedes and Texans. I'm pretty sure tactical abilities are good as gold no matter where you are
mircea_popescu: the_scourge notreally. it can provide an edge if the other side is just as incompetent, that's about all.
BingoBoingo: <mircea_popescu> and least narwahl wasn't as horrifying as that orca shit romney came up with. << Amazing that Trump's less budget meant not buying landwhales
mircea_popescu: and least narwahl wasn't as horrifying as that orca shit romney came up with.
asciilifeform: https://archive.is/9MwsU >> 'Sticky as a long, slow summertime fuck.' << lel
asciilifeform: as is its back-office.
BingoBoingo: Sanders likely not long for this world seeing as he is oldest of the olds.

asciilifeform: as i understand, these are against naked chix running off into the woods in the dead of night.
mircea_popescu: oh, same people as epstein dude. it's a dnc outfit through and through.
asciilifeform: this is one of those affairs bitcoin oughta be delightfully perverting to all hell, as per mircea_popescu's prophecy
asciilifeform: at one point i worked for a co that supplied dns reg as part of a larger package of high-roller services (rather than, as usually seen with registrars, to public) -- the 'crown concession' was quite costly
asciilifeform: jurov: there is an upstream cost, given as all dns regs are sub-leases from hitler.
mircea_popescu: what's your process for learning as a new tongue ?
Framedragger: mircea_popescu: incidentally, any recommendation on which of the following to pick to learn as a new tongue? (sample at hand is due to some future pragmatical considerations, in terms of possible living places etc. - maybe not he last entry): french (i can't french at all), german (some knowledge), portuguese (none), russian (very rudimentary, call it none)
mircea_popescu: as per macbeth, you know.
mircea_popescu: well, it goes away as you age.
Framedragger: mircea_popescu: re. http://trilema.com/2015/trilema-burns/ : you write that "Apparently the EU is about as impotent in practice as its fame for impotence promises in theory" in response to you being able to search for that person on google.com.ar ; whereas that letter plainly states that "Only results on European versions of Google are affected."
a111: Logged on 2016-10-31 15:12 mircea_popescu: very weird, the list of nonsense these people sprout. it's as if they have 0 reflexive capacity whatsoever, how am i supposed to distinguish google "ai" from some douche who spits out " Your style of just summarily shitting on how the author wrote this piece adds no value to the discussion." ?
trinque: Afraid that I'll be perceived as anti feminist << yes, deprived of the dulap.
mats: >I do not feel anger toward my assailant, for I see him most as a product of an unjust world. A product of an upbringing marked by war and deprivation.
mircea_popescu: wtf why do us-jews spell shnotys as ... schnoz ?!
mircea_popescu: (/me once said at party, to obvious female dressed as female etc, "i bet you have a huge schlong". everyone burst out laughing and she... well... left.)
asciilifeform: ours was some phantasmagoric sea of virginal j000 chixx, as if it were selection yard in commendant's office in chixschwitz
pete_dushenski appreciates all the framework building, as ever, and is off to the mountains for the long weekend. cheers.
pete_dushenski: asciilifeform: aha. might've guessed as much.
pete_dushenski: anyways, phf's line is but one example. the corpse that was my 'trb history' should serve as the only proof required that i have deeply nfi which way is up in the cs field and that is has ~zero to do with maths.
a111: Logged on 2016-09-21 14:52 phf: and for the record, read in python doesn't ever fail, what fails is elevation from str to unicode that implicitly happens in places, like when you do "print" or inside the html encoder or whatever. the correct way is to treat "str" as a byte sequence, and explicitly do encode/decode when appropriate.
mircea_popescu: i'm aware that technically it would qualify as olympiad subject matter for that reason ; but still.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform the point you elude here is that education is not so much about gaining things as it is about losing them. it's like washing not like book implants.
pete_dushenski: as to scary things, i can see it. and believe it or not i'm doing just this on meatspace projects. just have to kill a few dragons to get to the (republican) princess.
pete_dushenski: mircea_popescu: ya, i can take it easy on the barfbombs. am also taking ug cs course to fill in the holes in my education. not likely to lisp anytime this decade but working towards being a more useful citizen of the republic. bbet seemed like potential avenue. your ancient suggestion to serve as marketing agent for tmsr-related entities isn't forgotten but meatwot obligations currently prevent its pursuit,
mircea_popescu: https://archive.is/Shq9z << in vague lulz : romanian immigrant (from small town in romania's own rust belt) living in az and working as a rent-a-cop voted trump. his declared principal issue : "the stability of world peace".
trinque: my survival strategy with webshit has always been to heretically do as little as possible client-side
mircea_popescu: as per usual, when i talk of something it's not "undoable", whatever it may look like.
mircea_popescu: ignoring machine gun is a matter of action ; pretending no machine gun is a matter of thought. might as well not understand the difference between camming and dating.
mircea_popescu: it isn't, especially as most women marry poor people.
asciilifeform: at any rate, i'd like to see 'tmsr isp' just as much as anyone. but the lack of berserkers willing to subsist on crumbs for ~0 ev, doing largely ~uninteresting and difficult chore, solely in the name of tmsr, is not mega-puzzle.
asciilifeform: it looks to me as moar of a coca plantation and narcosub shipyard than pizzeria.
asciilifeform: 'cuckoldtronic' isp as suggested not long ago by mircea_popescu , with the virii, is viable.
asciilifeform: because as i understand subj, this circle ain't squarable.
mircea_popescu: watch those people process > 1k travellers/minute ; watch yourself get through the single file immigrations queue within ~12 minutes, as a new airbus/boeing lands every OTHER minute dumping 500 more people behind you.
mircea_popescu: as if it makes the first whit of difference that someone's offended. pssshhh
asciilifeform: (if memorable-name-whateverthefuck manipulation took 3 milliseconds and cost 0, it would be trivial to move warez site as often as you like)
asciilifeform: revisiting upstack , isp in the traditional sense, as i understand it , is 'castle'
mircea_popescu: no, actually, it concerned an isp which, like any other isp, can't afford to actually pay a lawyer to read all the legalse spam being thrown their way. the guilty party here is the state of california, as per http://btcbase.org/log/2016-08-18#1524561 ☝︎☟︎
PeterL: from comments on link I posted a minute ago: "Any college receiving public funding - what college doesen't?- should have their funding immediately frozen if they don't take an immediate, corrective action." < seems commenters have the same idea as mircea_popescu
mircea_popescu: moreover, commercial litigation is bundled/sold/bought as so much negotiable paper. it's almost never the original parties that are involved, much like your 20 bux for a boxed cd set dun go to the artist.
a111: Logged on 2016-11-09 20:30 asciilifeform: https://archive.is/1fqR8 << 'And it’s our duty and our responsibility as entrepreneurs, as citizens of the f—— world, to make sure that s— does not happen. '
mircea_popescu: and before that it was british corrupting influence as per byron. and before that etc.
asciilifeform: by that token, it is just as foolish to say that i would rather visit mars than venus, given as i have flown to 0 planets ?
mircea_popescu: moeover, there's an important distinction most people don't think of : if you've fucked under a few hundred women, one's "preference" doesn't exist as such ; they're discussing their ~projection~ of a preference, which isn't the same thing. not even remotely similar in fact.
mircea_popescu: in sparta, by gorgo's to quote : "Επειδή γαμώ την ράτσα σου". in athens, they did not as far as one knows.
mircea_popescu: the british "blood and soil" implemented the wail-supression through the mechanism of sending all kids off to work for osmeone else, so the woman's dumb feelers wouldbn't be aroused by the foreign kids imported into household. and it worked, for as long as they stuck to it - and it immediately failed once they gave it up.
asciilifeform: it is actually a mega-argument for mircea_popescu's despised 'blood and soil', folx separated from their natural habitat end up as.. this
mircea_popescu: no argument. nevertheless, retarded kid telling you "he has azn ancestry" in english, the sole language he speaks has no azn ancestry. as ballas aptly points out, in an article which can anyone plox link ?
asciilifeform: hey it's a handy 'who's who', in much the same way as one learns, working in usg laboratory dungeons for years, to tell all of the east asian folk apart from across hallway before even hello.
asciilifeform: it was a quite overt surrender of territory, the idiot rulers of the time saw it as 'temporary' strategic retreat
mircea_popescu: and dorks a la curtis yarvin & friends go around dribbling "hey, since they're behaving AS IF they had the division, therefore they have them yes ?" as fucking if.
mircea_popescu: 20something females self-starve as a cross-cultural phenomenon.
mircea_popescu: (for the record - average crack whore sampled off us highway today is, in point of fact and as any sort of practical measure of intelligence will show - far above average "student" sampled off us campus.)
shinohai: hence why she should be impaled as a warning to the others
mircea_popescu: is great and a bulwark of democracy, except of course it's really bad and barbaric and an anachronism as "we've always said" - and this literally changes from nov 7 to nov 8.
asciilifeform: http://btcbase.org/log/2016-11-09#1565072 << this is a crime authored by all of the folks who made this type of scam even remotely thinkable. just as microshit is the primary author of all, without exception, virii. ☝︎
asciilifeform: http://btcbase.org/log/2016-11-10#1565224 << jam, as we learn in kindergarten, happened yesterday, and will happen again -- tomorrow. but not today. ☝︎
asciilifeform: the 'pussy grabs back' picket sign was lultronic, as were others.

BingoBoingo appologizes I live in real America where white people SMILED as they waited for the Great Again to happen
ben_vulpes: mircea_popescu: no idea why it was recorded as being weird in my head.
mircea_popescu: as it turns out, his REAL talent wasn't wine tasting. that was just... you know, like gay people sometimes channel their love of dressing up into an acting career.
