mod6: im not sure that i get this
^ but... i think we're all saying the same thing.
trinque:
^ I'm gonna spoil the shit out of this one. It ends with the chick learning the magic words SHE KNEW ALL ALONG because aliens fly their heptafold asses across the cosmos to make her the god-snowflake she is in her true self. This SO THAT humans can help teh alienz in 3000 years.

http://btcbase.org/log/2016-12-21#1587182 << speaking of this, here's a question for the eager : a diophantine equation is a multivariate polynomial, something like ax+by
^2 = 0. the question is : given an arbitrary finite set of known-good equations, can you use recursion to decide whether an arbitrary equation in the same variables is good (has integer solution) or no good ?
mircea_popescu:
^ recommended not just because of the 85 bitcents in prizes
jurov: i was thinking we're in keyserver context, not
^ this
ben_vulpes: the naive o(n
^2) calculation is to say "there is a signature for this patch" and not giving a shit about which signature, provided it corresponds to a key in .wot .
mircea_popescu:
^ from the history. check out what isn't a reliable source. epic shit.
mircea_popescu: but the space gets pretty narrow. 3n, you shoot n
^(1/2) messages you're suddenly losing
mircea_popescu: if the message is n long, does the pad-machine tape need to be n
^2 ?
mircea_popescu: individually. like the list could be x
^2 = 4 ; x = 1 ; x
^ 3 + 5 = 6 - in which case your arbitrary equation may be a polynomial in x but not in x y

mircea_popescu: the reason is that same old mc
^2 ; there's no better heat dampener than water nor better energy dampener than mass.
mod6: and when I do that above test
^, i never hit this line: death("Cyclic Graph!\n");

☟︎☟︎ ben_vulpes: and yes, this implies an o(n
^2) worst case process in (or (map 'boolean (lambda (sig) (verify 'some_patch.vpatch' sig)))
mircea_popescu: for every patch, check if patch sig by approved names is present. this isn't any sort of N
^2 ; it's O(N*M) where N is the count of patches and M the count of approved signers.
a111: Logged on 2016-01-18 15:35 ascii_butugychag: jurov: theoretically you can avoid using the name prior to .sig, but then you have to check ALL seals agains ALL patches ALWAYS and this is O(N
^2)
trinque: asciilifeform: how did you
^ the first statement of it and waiwat the second
a111: Logged on 2016-12-19 18:10 asciilifeform: using this
^ method, it was -- and remains -- possible to operate a useful node sans ethernet plug.
Framedragger:
^ (not saying it's not a lost cause while working for one of those "tech" "leader" companies, in the way that applying adhesive to a bursting pipe is not fixing a water problem)
mircea_popescu: this is irl example, too. owning slaves = loads of fun, like kittens
^ akaname or somesuch.
BingoBoingo:
^ From DEO Report on nuclear waste security

^ that part gotta be in the logs.

^ just discovered this. "remove the CRUD", serve APIs directly from postgres. includes user/role/cookie management etc. pretty neat.
