pete_dushenski: mircea_popescu: best parts of series thus far, imo, are when parallels are drawns to ro of 70s/80s
mircea_popescu: shinohai make it answer to !~ plox
pete_dushenski: speaking of which, cheers to mircea_popescu for the elliot chronicles! i loled many, many times
pete_dushenski: i may not have grown up in former su, but the arctic is its own kind of strange parallel universe requiring altogether mesmerising adaptations
BingoBoingo: And also pickup truck cuntry
BingoBoingo: pete_dushenski: But this is IRL which haz moar pixels!
pete_dushenski: BingoBoingo: that strat works about as well as lonely white kids watching blacked.com in triggering crackers to get more hung.
BingoBoingo: If there were complaints though I'd expect them to actually have increased over the past two weeks as I've taken to walking around with athletic black girl to trigger fat white bitches into hopefully eating less.
asciilifeform: to SOMEONE, this was supposed to read as an appealing! thing.
asciilifeform: BingoBoingo: noshit.jpg. but consider, SOMEONE was audience for this crapolade !
BingoBoingo: How can a serivce have 100 kilousers when it doesn't even have two centiusers?
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: That's not news. That's sponsored content.
asciilifeform: 'He said Nextdoor has added “racial profiling” as a category for people who want to flag a conversation as inappropriate and that it has provided additional training on how to recognize toxic conversations about race to the volunteer “neighborhood leads” who are responsible for moderating discussions.'
asciilifeform: BingoBoingo: lovely thing for you - http://fusion.net/story/340171/how-nextdoor-reduced-racial-profiling << possibly qntrable.
asciilifeform: it was written by the fella whose diesel-powered cock you were considering to encompass, covertress . i recommend reading attentively.
BingoBoingo: covertress: Lots of reading to catch up on.
covertress: asciilifeform: if i do, you'll be the last to know ☟︎☟︎
a111: Logged on 2016-08-26 17:25 mircea_popescu: has anyone a spare bedroom/garage/whatever willing to rent to me for a reasoble sum and park gabriel there for a few months ?
danielpbarron: http://btcbase.org/log/2016-08-26#1530024 << maybe. I'm about to start up my seasonal thing, which means I move in at work, leaving empty space where I currently reside. But that's a really big maybe seeing as how it's not my place and it's a very risky thing, letting someone move in. That aside, the timeframe is perfect. I will be away for more than a few months even ☝︎
mircea_popescu: lol. gawker is about freedom in the sense putin is about gay sex.
asciilifeform: or 'how shitgnomes suture their wounds'
phf: hmm, there's no exceptions, bot's simply timing out. i wonder if i should put a reconnect throttle. i wouldn't be surprised if the ping is timing out, but a connection can still go through. so bot times out, then reconnects, then one ping goes through, another one times out, so bot disconnects again..
BingoBoingo: "The court ruled that because the law that defines stealing doesn’t include the value of property stolen as an element of the offense, prosecutors couldn’t charge the woman in the case with felony stealing."
mircea_popescu: you lot are gonna take slutpics etc yes ?
phf: basically it's a choice between beta level code that is likely to do something stupid, but not as likely to completely die and stable code that doesn't know how to reconnect dying on wednesday while i'm away
thestringpuller: phf is going to burning man?
phf: it's running on a new irc code, unfortunately pretty close to me going away into desert, but hopefully today tomorrow i'll have time to debug it a bit
phf: asciilifeform: i don't know what that was, i'll have to read the log/code but probably sometime later tonight. fwiw it reconnects

mircea_popescu: typical retirement for aged 2nd tier whores. they have just enough connections to make the whole thing work.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform think of it as sewage filter. dunno if you've seen ossessione, but anyway : the street blows by all sorts, maybe some junk you'd like to hold on for a while.
thestringpuller: asciilifeform: but not so much ho bsns, as slave bsns. motel == office. with unpaid interns. think 1980's startup.
trinque: thestringpuller: oh hey, did you want your blog in the rss list?
asciilifeform: thestringpuller: what is the point of such a thing ?
asciilifeform: or is it empty carcass of motel, with a lock on it, and thestringpuller has the key.
thestringpuller: i have a motel room, but he'd have to work
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo tghere is also that. ideally a married fellow, lest we end up making more gabriel laddels.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: they are more like your german shepherd.
mircea_popescu: i also saw them in every red light district
asciilifeform: it is now, apparently, a thing.
BingoBoingo: <mircea_popescu> has anyone a spare bedroom/garage/whatever willing to rent to me for a reasoble sum and park gabriel there for a few months ? << Parking him in my spider hole would be bad for my sobriety
asciilifeform: i also saw them in chicago
asciilifeform: (there are students panhandling for tuition at schools like uni of md, which doesn't cost a fifth of what stanford costs)
trinque: maybe 2016 stanford is just this Slack you show up to
asciilifeform: don't they give'em barracks to live in?
mircea_popescu: has anyone a spare bedroom/garage/whatever willing to rent to me for a reasoble sum and park gabriel there for a few months ? ☟︎☟︎
mircea_popescu: lmao that poor kid.
trinque: crossed the cultural streams!
asciilifeform: trinque: i specifically did not mean 'ansifier', as in your caca, or the infamous 'ascii starwars', but purposeful ansi-drawing.
asciilifeform: trinque: ever use turbovision proggies (e.g., borland cpp)
trinque: clim is a graphical UI thinger; how does this map to an 80x25 character display
trinque: asciilifeform: I have no idea what you're talking about
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform no argument re no-ip-and-raptor scheme. the deeper point for me is that the advances happen so quickly and are so significant that it's yet early.
trinque: sounds like it turns into the web browser "supports 9999 devices and browser versions" which has never actually been a thing
trinque: anything even remotely graphical would turn into libcacaesque garble, neh?
asciilifeform: i'd actually like such a thing.
asciilifeform pictures a turbovision clim.
trinque: they banned gabriel_laddel for beating on some fucknut that thought ncurses clim ought to be a thing
trinque: nothing even worth the mention. they're the types that cry for their mothers when an aggressive argument is brought.
trinque: ;;later tell gabriel_laddel good luck wringing something usable from those people; they're idiots.
asciilifeform: ^ but we already, i think, did this thread.
asciilifeform: (this also makes for a clean transition to comms over shortwave, hijacked tv satellites, or whatever other twist the future holds where packets come with NO return address)
asciilifeform: pound the knife in it.
asciilifeform: enemy's entire infrastructure has a premise baked in, that a 'conversation' is something that happens 'between ip a and b'.
asciilifeform: mpex proxies are a reasonably good analogy for this.
asciilifeform: because i can send raptorade split among 25 boxes, to his 15, in random order.
asciilifeform: s, as can mine, and traffic between them cannot be grouped into 'a conversation between x and y' by third party.
a111: Logged on 2016-08-26 16:06 mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2016-08-26#1529659 << and timing attacks, of course. of all numerous kinds - suppose as a banal example that what i want to do is discern whether key X is yours or his. well, a simple solution would be to add a third i know is not involved, send the same thing to all three, and see which of the susperct two behaves like the third.
asciilifeform: one other point re http://btcbase.org/log/2016-08-26#1529877 is that divorcing from 'a node is an ip' entirely, makes this or any variant of this attack considerably more painful. with single-packet quanta, and raptor code (i.e. it does not matter whether mircea_popescu gets all of my packets in order, but only that he gets 10% of the packets i send in next second, in SOME order) his 'node' could consist of 15 machines in 6 continent ☝︎
mircea_popescu: took me all of 2 seconds, and i thought "funny how this works, where one man's stumped another man sees not the trouble"
asciilifeform: i just wanted it plugged into this thread, and for some odd reason it did not turn up in my notes.
mircea_popescu: had you been spending time trying to dig this up ?
a111: Logged on 2015-04-02 03:54 asciilifeform: http://www.cryptomuseum.com/crypto/fialka/psu/tempest.htm#circuit << tries to prevent differential power analysis
mircea_popescu: oh right, we had this with the german museum o' crypto
asciilifeform: that's the 'fingerprint of how it types' thread
a111: Logged on 2015-11-20 01:49 asciilifeform: like soviet typewriter fp.
asciilifeform: by making the machine draw same current regardless of what keys are pressed, or if any are
asciilifeform: where they countered differential power analysis
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: do you perchance have the link to the sov typewriter thread ?
mircea_popescu: but at least it become evident from this discussion that we'll prolly bundle a performancer, ie something to benchmark key parts of the crypto lib on machines for the user's benefit.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: running safety-critical code on pc ~is~ a hack, and there is no way fully around it except to burn the pc.
asciilifeform: the job of the algo is to perform same count of 'ideal cpu, no cache, all instr take the cycle count printed in the book' instructions per sig verif.
asciilifeform: (e.g., i cannot know the rate at which mircea_popescu's reactor control card throws interrupts, or how many cpu core he has to handle them with, etc.)
mircea_popescu: i thought the ceiling was the code!
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: the ceiling is necessarily machine-specific
mircea_popescu: for... all implementations ? like, it happened to you so now gossipd-central updates my gossipd ?
asciilifeform: if enemy can make it happen every second, programmer is a tard and ought to be fed to pigs.
asciilifeform: if this happens, interval is bumped up.
mircea_popescu: and then what do you do
mircea_popescu: and if you do it in this manner, then yes, it is theoretically possible that i make your program run for longer than the specified interval
asciilifeform: time := max(time it EVER took)
mircea_popescu: i must confess in all discussions of "time ceiling" i assumed clock-based cutoff not this hardcore "my asm runs in subspace" notion.
asciilifeform: and calculation ~never~ returns a result prior to interval elapsing.
BingoBoingo: "The sheriff’s office said deputies and Pinckneyville police officers received a call at 9:18 a.m. Saturday for reckless driving. Nine minutes later, officers tried to stop a blue 2016 Ford Hatchback, which failed to stop, the sheriff’s office said. An officer had to pull in front of the Ford to block it to force the vehicle to stop."
mircea_popescu: except the controls aren't controllable.
mircea_popescu: anyway, a device would be neat, but i'm persuaded it won't be the first thing.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform uh. so now you're married to hardware ? why even do it software then, make gossipd a chip
mircea_popescu: even if written in straight asm, i doubt the time ceiling can be guaranteed in this manner
