BingoBoingo: Nah, danielpbarron doesn't have
that droopy eye
phf: i'm pretty sure cmucl's networking/threading interaction is busted. it shouldn't be, for all practical purposes it's an erlang model (green
threads, and async io on vm level), but in practice
the code is dodgy..
phf: cheers, i just refreshed
the stack so should be less random bot
timeouts
BingoBoingo still greatly prefering phf's lowwwg
to Framedragger's
☟︎ phf: asciilifeform: ah cool, i
think you might've linked
that page before
mircea_popescu: actually modern plane is designed
to fly if 3 engines fall off etc
mircea_popescu: this is
true. but it's quite sensible
to design for "least possible rules"
mircea_popescu: not in defense of shit rngs. but why specify something
that needn't be.
mircea_popescu: thinking being
that if
the all-xored-with-key packet is specifically known, observer has some advantage in detecting underperforming rng ; but if it's not known
then not so much.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform what i mean is, iirc rivest just puts key in last packet.
there's no reason
to have a "last" packet ; why not "one of"
a111: Logged on 2016-09-11 21:54 mircea_popescu: asciilifeform also, rivest's scheme is ordered, i was
thinking of an order-indifferent k-1 of k packets sorta
thing
mircea_popescu: hey, wait, i
thought
they were going
to nailgun
the other one!!11eleventy

☟︎ mircea_popescu: ha! /me showered, came out with
two ideas : an update for article ; and "i wonder if one could come up with a way
to do all-or-nothing
transforms
that are freeform"
ben_vulpes: it is
the most difficult design problem i've seen and i'm still working
to wrap my head around both of your positions
trinque will join
the discussion when he has something
that hasn't been said, and not simply
to "make voice heard" or "join
the debate"

the silent are not necessarily
thereby lazy! mebbe
they're
trying
to understand
the otherwise rather complex an' intricate matter in discussion.
mircea_popescu: this said, i see absolutely no problem whatsoever implementing
trb nodes on sign-hello.

☟︎ mircea_popescu: anyway, discussion of specifix
there plox, lest we manage
to lose
the ~only benefit so far, which is
to say
that nonsensical as it is, at least discussion is all in one place
mircea_popescu: of either kind in his production ; nevertheless he also claims dc is sufficient
to sink any attempt
to implemnet a gossipd.
mircea_popescu: the matter in dispute is how
to handle authentification. one solution is decrypt-challenge.
the other solution is signed-hello. i reject signed-hello for a number of reasons, both practical and
theoretical, which alf doesn't seem
to
think much of but which i am satisfied are sufficient
to sink any attempt
to implement a gossipd on sh. alf purports
to reject dc on similar grounds, except i can't find anything like an argument
mircea_popescu: as
the australian slut once said
to her boyfriend, "roses are red, violets are blue, i'm at mp's house cheating you you eh."
phf: asciilifeform: i'll read it once
the dust settles
Framedragger: asciilifeform: re. "Enemy can spam
the channel but each of his packets can be rejected in ~constant
time~" - ahh!
that clarifies matters for me. will comment on blog later by PC.
ttyl
Framedragger:
http://log.mkj.lt/trilema/20160911/#199 << ah, scheiße. unfortunately fix involves rewriting part of
the log viewer which is based on regex. (to be clear, my fault entirely, of course). will be done - but not instantaneously, am afraid.
thanks.
shinohai: Neither show up on
the blockchain.info

mircea_popescu: for
this money, elliot also observed his pussy crushing doesn't work. went right back
to it.
mircea_popescu: there can by definition exist no meeting of
the minds on such shaky, arbitrarily shapeshifting
terrains.
mircea_popescu: the point ~everyone, from
the propellerhead ethidiots
to yours
truly, prefers
to not observe
the fact
that bitcoin can not be part of economic activity as is, because unspecified machinery with unpredictable behaviours are exactly not
the substance of contractual agreements.
☟︎ mircea_popescu: otherwise feel free
to you know, stage mock debates/legal proceedings between payment processor ("we sent
the
txn as contractually obligated") and contracting firm ("we hired you
to do
the payments, do
them") etc etc.

that presently
the majority of our network nodes are experiencing issues [read, are +/- down];
therefore
the servers behind said nodes may be unreachable." i'll bitchslap
them after
they recover
Framedragger: (and ftr hosting a parliament candidate's website on
the same server as something
to do with
tmsr may have been a choice
too curious.)
Framedragger: r
them
to recover, and meanwhile i'm off
to a punk concert.
ttyl.
Framedragger: mircea_popescu and everyone, so just in case it was unclear, everything
to do with mkj.lt is down 'cause (apparently, as of now)
the network is down. cause as of yet unknown, as
they've confirmed when i called.
the system also helpfully informs me
that server is using 64.50 GB out of available 10.00 GB, and
the free disk space available ("-54.50 GB") is less
than
the recommended free space amount.
things shall be migrated, i will however wait fo
mircea_popescu: but yes,
there's ~no application one can work on
that is going
to be as seriously high demand as doing stuff here. people go
through entire careers in corporate computer science without ever encountering
the sort of omgwtfbbq you get for
two week's stay.

☟︎ Framedragger: if
they send me a letter saying "our network got fucked due
to ddos initiated at your ip" imma laugh
Framedragger: gonna learn
to host
tmsr stuff separately from $random_websites_for_relatives_etc ,
too; collateral damage much
Framedragger: so apparently
the hosting provider which i've been paying since 2008 without sweat just went down. like, i can't load
their homepage and client area.
they better have a good explanation for entire cluster going down
Framedragger: mircea_popescu: no objections!!
this is good stuff. can't see home partition under `mount` - disk subsystem appears
to have failed. (so unfortunately may not be due
to bots - yet; OR..
things are even more ominous, in which case, fun!)
