Framedragger: lol just had a meeting with boss: he wants
to create a general valuation (as in IP valuation) framework for cryptocurrencies
mircea_popescu: basically. i mean,
that's
the point right ? for people
to pick up
tickets and push
through
mod6: hmm. ok. i gotta run here for a bit. will
think on it a bit more.
thanks!
mod6: because goal with
this is not just
to flow in
to one direction,
the goal is
to recurse and solve from
the leaves
to root.
mod6: yeah, i see how
that, especially in
this case as opposed
to V does warp
the mind a bit.
mod6: just not sure if anyone else will see it
that way. but i guess
that doesn't quite matter either.
mircea_popescu: my only
thing was with
the arrows, because currently
they go against
the flow of entropy.
mod6: which is why I
think your graph for UCI is correct.
mod6: ok! so you're looking at it
the same way i was
then -- and I
thought
this yesterday.
mircea_popescu: so calling
them antecedents is actually correct :
they're
the earlier pieces.
tb0t: Project: UCI, ID: 7,
Type: I, Subject: Research and design UCI/worker interface., Antecedents: 3,4,5,6, Notes: UCI element should expose significant portions of native ability (at a very minimum networking ; math processing - CPU and VidCard ; storage - RAM and HDD)
through an unified, lightweight interface. Feature load less important
than simplicity.
mod6: 2 & 7 are blockers
to
the completion of 8
tb0t: Project: UCI, ID: 8,
Type: F, Subject: Create UCI supervisor, Antecedents: 2,7, Notes: Interacts with UCI worker
through interface ; interacts with peers
through #trilema standard bot. Maintains list of prices for exposed abilities and Bitcoin address for payments ; list of
trusted peers for accepting orders and verifying Bitcoin payments ; administrative policies as appropriate. Directs worker
to execute accepted commands,
mircea_popescu: but not exactly see, because for instance in uti oops i mean uci
thing : 4 doesn't block 7 if 3 is present say.
tb0t: Project: UCI, ID: 2,
Type: F, Subject: #trilema standard bot, Antecedents: , Notes: Should be capable of maintaining connection
to channel ; interfacing with deedbot ; interfacing with Lordship/voiced users.
mod6: so... all of
these obnoxious mental gymnastics are because i didn't want
to use
the
term "blocker"
Framedragger remembers writing a shitty "back-connect" backdoor, coupling it with keylogger and a shitty "Hacker Defender" (sic) rootkit which hides
the former
two, and installing
the bundle onto school PCs running
the latest AV...
mod6: does anyone agree with
that assessment?
Framedragger: asciilifeform: i'm sure you've had good fun with
them :)
mod6: boy. i
think
that
the logic might be correct in
there -- but boy oh boy is "ANTECEDENT(s)" a bad label.
Framedragger: asciilifeform: undocumented windows NT features or sth like
that?
there was a book...
gribble: thestringpuller was last seen in #trilema 10 weeks, 1 day, 21 hours, 20 minutes, and 0 seconds ago: <thestringpuller> phf:
turning
the logs into genius.com?
Framedragger: (it's a long post but a nice read for one of
them rainy days)
mircea_popescu: <mirceayyy> I'm Lilly. I am a very liberal SJW activist who is also into very kinky sex. I am on here
to finally
to what I know in my heart is right and fair and find an African American person whom wants
to own a white slave. I am very obedient, can cook, clean, and do whatever else would be required of me."
Framedragger: iirc
they have
their own solution for pipes, which does work
Framedragger: i do remember investigating how a few of
them ring 0 windows rootkits work,
thereby sort of delving into NT internals... it's a world unto itself. and it's full of objects!!! ah, childhood :D
mircea_popescu: what rock have you been living under!
teh jwz chorus won all
the wars, what.
mircea_popescu: there's been 25 years of "pubic opinion" and "internet community" PROGRESS since
then!
Framedragger: but yeah of course fuck
them, can't argue with
that
Framedragger: ah, right, i see why you'd
think
that. yeah so something of
the kind, partially. ugh M$
mircea_popescu: since when are
timestamps
the way
to approach
this btw ?
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform admitting for a moment windows can actually do
things.
Framedragger: i don't
think it's a complete stack
trace. it's just
timestamps?
mircea_popescu: "users should add notelemetry.obj
to
their linker command line" lol k.
Framedragger: mircea_popescu: etw seems
to be a more generic framework
than
that, but can't be bothered
to look
too deeply. something like
that anyway
mircea_popescu: turns out
this "telemetry" is an utter misnomer, "etw" is just a stack
trace a la windows ?
Framedragger: it's just logging
timestamps
to windows event logger it seems. but still bold and shitty
mod6: so im gonna dig into
that a bit
today, and see what needs
to change if anything --
the structure shouldn't change
too much, just a lot of labeling
to make it more .... intuitive.
mod6: speaking of which, i
think I'm going
to need
to rework
this whole antecedent
thing. while building it, it seemed
to make sense
to me, but now, looking at it
through a different set of eyes, it seems unintuitive at best, out right backwards at worst.
☟︎☟︎ mod6: <+mircea_popescu> mod6 aww, you didn't choke on
the submit part did you ? just gpg --encrypt --armor -r bingo and put
the
text into dpaste or wotpaste.cascadianhacker.com << ah, no. my writing isn't good. so lol, it's difficult for me.
a111: Logged on 2016-05-17 14:54 asciilifeform:
the 'let's
talk plaintext
to randos'
thing was great while it lasted.
a111: Logged on 2015-12-17 23:25 ascii_field: meanwhile, 'socket no message in first 60 seconds, 0 1' between
two boxes which i control
a111: Logged on 2016-05-25 20:46 mircea_popescu:
the system's been around for decades ; i fucked a bunch in my day. recently
they
tried
to close
the
thing down, arrested gals by
the pail, but... from what i hear it didn't
take.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform suddenly
the value of point
to point encrypted
traffic at
the box level becomes apparent ?
mircea_popescu: of course
the interface is how
the worker's written not
the other way around.
jurov: mod6: BingoBoingo: btcalpha is mike-c's
thing
davout: in other words i don't get how a worker could be made if
the interface it should honor isn't defined beforehand
a111: Logged on 2016-06-09 23:04 mircea_popescu: does
this make sense
to anyone outside of yours
truly ? asciilifeform ? davout ? jurov ? phf ?
trinque ?
mircea_popescu: mod6 aww, you didn't choke on
the submit part did you ? just gpg --encrypt --armor -r bingo and put
the
text into dpaste or wotpaste.cascadianhacker.com
BingoBoingo: Well you've got
to
try everything at least once in life
mod6: this kidna
thing isn't forme.
mod6: BingoBoingo hey,
turns out
that I won't have
time
to finish
this
tonight, and probably not until
tomorrow night at very earliest.
mod6: my apologies, is
this documented somewhere?
mod6: encrypt and send
to you for review?
mod6: like
this: <div class="entry-content">
mod6: do you want me
to put in
the class attributes?
mod6: you don't want me
to use a bunch of JS
to do a bunch of
things
to make your eyes bleed?
BingoBoingo: You use
the limited necessary set of html markup
to accomplish
the
task <b> <i> <a> <blockquote> etc
mod6: How does
that work?
