Framedragger: source code.. wonder if there's a good reason possible if intention was to give source eventually. prolly not...
Framedragger long ago got a "you're not yet ready to read kant, read this about kant", which in retrospect may have been a misjudgement (you can kinda sorta just read Kant, esp. if you're read hume), but i just went along with it. worked in the end. maybe not comparable situation, but anyway
Framedragger: erlehmann: just idly curious, why did you not continue studying at TUM? i'm only curious because i considered that once, too, and "heard it was good" (well they also seemed to be offering solid-looking courses when i visited them in ~2013). just in case answer pertains to objective details
Framedragger: (related, http://btcbase.org/log/2017-05-16#1656958) ☝︎
Framedragger: (this may just be a fatal red flag, tho.)
Framedragger currently trying to fight ceo who wants to do an ICO, can relate somewhat
Framedragger: mircea_popescu: yeah, after writing that i recalled gossipd design and intentions (need to generate a lot of keys, and if it takes a month - so fucking be it)...
Framedragger: asciilifeform: alright, will do later. given that you quoted from the concluding section however, makes me doubt whether my opinion will change. but will do.
Framedragger: i don't believe they are actually suggesting that doing key gen on third party is a good idea for user. discussion was about performance, no? (granted, did not read whole paper)
Framedragger: http://btcbase.org/log/2017-05-31#1663689 << i believe you misquoted out of context. the purpose of that was to (as you can see if you read till end of para), "The challenge here is to show that secure multi-user RSA key generation can becarried out more efficiently than one-user-at-a-time RSA key generation" ☝︎
Framedragger: good practice, props for persevering! (i'm the "modularise, bitch" guy at work)
Framedragger: yeah.
Framedragger makes sure 'tis in reading list
Framedragger just wondered if one of the functions of "concents" in stephenson's anathem (which i haven't yet read) are to reduce this kind of "but i have two cats and mortgage!" compromise possibility for scientists and the like
Framedragger: (not that this is original at all, just another articulation of same old.)
Framedragger: asciilifeform: yeah, taleb had a piece about that "thrown to the dogs" exposure (if that's the word): https://medium.com/incerto/the-skin-of-others-in-your-game-3f51d8ccc3fb - "independent academics" are not at all independent, etc etc (this also creates the "give advice without skin in the game" issue, so on.)
Framedragger: of course. not much use in the first place. it's not about any mega opportunity / utility loss, just, d00d seemed ~healthy, there was no excuse (free! relevant shit!), and *yet*. i know the whole history of the forum is full of this, it's just fucking depressing what can i say.
Framedragger: damn, that response re FUCKGOATS somehow made me sadder than random $afk emotional things. "you had your chance" and any onus to follow-up is now on their end (demarcation line has been set), yes, lost cause, but still, damn. such a waste of flesh.
Framedragger: hrm, yeah.
Framedragger: so that, then. :) right, quite a bit of space for stacking, heh.
Framedragger: how objective? like, armstrong limit objective?
Framedragger: heh, yeah, okay
Framedragger: (one example i've been sorta following is https://automicrofarm.com/ - they don't have much to show tho, not sure if ever will)
Framedragger: aquaponics - having a (umm) self-contained plant growth and fish system for food? i'm not even sure what it is. "save lots of space" is one of the arguments iirc
Framedragger: never bothered to find out if there's any merit to that ^
Framedragger: !#s aquaponics
Framedragger: attempting to grok "causal structure" of "modern web" is recipe for madness, best to avoid!..
Framedragger: :(
Framedragger: http://web.archive.org/web/20160311124607/http://ultimatebunker.com/wp-content/uploads/6000-sq-ft-underground-bunker.jpg great feeling when the ~whole "web" experience is a matter of using third party archive providers to dig up shit that has dissolved hence
Framedragger: (on the plus side, text loads on lynx, including those transcript excerpts.)
Framedragger seriously started doubting his eyesight while scrolling. "maybe too much computer time for me?"
Framedragger: (see as you scroll, it adjusts the location of the blur. genius)
Framedragger: finally web 69.0 standards are able to match the newest 2017 attention span of 0.25 seconds - enough to read a line. wtf!
Framedragger: https://www.themarshallproject.org/2017/05/22/the-accusation << OT, but what the fuck is this shit: http://i.imgur.com/e25Anbn.png do the "designers" seriously think this makes it easier to read? because that's how the eye worx? saccadic movements, bitch
Framedragger: photo itself is stupid
Framedragger: it's more black innit... yeah what can i say, i like her face!
Framedragger: what a pretty girl and a pretty palace!
Framedragger: youdontsay!
Framedragger: https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2017-05-24/ecb-warns-of-dangers-of-ripple-effect-from-house-price-boom 2008 called! "Exuberant house price developments in certain regions could, in principle, threaten the stability of financial institutions with mortgage exposures concentrated in those regions"
Framedragger: right :(
Framedragger: (but that's not even luby codes, right)
Framedragger: asciilifeform: on second thought, i didn't have an idea in mind. i just thought "huh, how to have continuous/streaming verification of data, i.e. not have to send data in signed *chunks* (if want to have verified/signed data)"
Framedragger: i guess no way to use luby code or equivalent on tcp huh
Framedragger: "still better than urandom"
Framedragger: oooh nice. /me yet to generate 1gb+ of entropy, will post when that's done
Framedragger: (jason scott)
Framedragger: on facebook archiving: http://ascii.textfiles.com/archives/3086
Framedragger: myeah.
Framedragger: aha i guess that's the main uh political bottleneck
Framedragger: from initial glance looks like (unrooted version) works *just* with pdfs?
Framedragger: nice...
Framedragger: cool
Framedragger: now picturing sending a physical letter with an invite to irc. possibly gpg fingerprint, too
Framedragger: ah, yeah makes sense
Framedragger happened to me
Framedragger: asciilifeform: this'll sound stupid, but have you checked whether mail from your mail server does not get marked as spam by various heathen systems (gmail e.g.)?
Framedragger is content with politness-instrumental-role in this context, but not certain if even that helps (being more confrontational (if that's the word) from the get-go ain't a bad thing, etc...)
Framedragger: there is that. moves the demarcation line
Framedragger: ok then will, can't hurt. but expect same success rate (0)...
Framedragger: you*
Framedragger can write tomorrow, for kicks
Framedragger: asciilifeform: do basically want to invite him to audit FUCKGOATS?

Framedragger: lul magicaltux is actually responding on reddit (for gasmask folks, https://www.reddit.com/r/mtgoxinsolvency/comments/6cwd82/plz_vote_mr_kobayashi_we_the_mtgox_creditors/)
Framedragger: he's an honestman.jpg
Framedragger: he's gonna pay yuge interest and settle this
Framedragger: dude karpeles just took a large loan on that frappuccino https://blog.bigterminal.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/02/protest-confronts-karpeles.jpg
Framedragger: because of the bull run, yknow
Framedragger: /r/mtgoxinsolvency is full of "this is sufficient for end of insolvency" and (quoting) "Karpeles is working on a solution!"
Framedragger: (here's a random good song with related title: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2QHj0VBCP54)
Framedragger: sounds like bukowski "post office", just 100x less alcohol and more brain
Framedragger: rip :(
Framedragger: that's so crazy, literally ~5h ago i visited http://www.btcalpha.com/blog/2014/panacea-opens-the-books/ through some link on trilema or somewhere
Framedragger: lol
Framedragger: heh they describe the key negotiation etc in sorta-detail on their website, which is probably *a first* https://www.connect.im/faqs?faq_category_id=5 i mean, don't use this, but it's refreshing to see this (in broken english no less lol)
Framedragger: http://log.mkj.lt/trilema/20170520/#132 << ikr
Framedragger: http://log.mkj.lt/trilema/20170520/#123 << yeah there is that!
Framedragger: mp the public utility provider!
Framedragger: shinohai: persistently if effectively :D it's going ~just fine~
Framedragger: mircea_popescu: france for a bit, visit folks in paris and down south, then back to homeland for sun/heat exposure / to feel the summer so to speak, beverages with friends and so on, and later - who knows. $startup applied to an accelerator in puerto rico (ikr?!), may go there for a few months
Framedragger: http://btcbase.org/log/2017-05-19#1659284 ☝︎
Framedragger: yeah they want their own internet now and all that
Framedragger: US, UK, same shit yknow
Framedragger: pithole shall be deframedraggerized some time start of july! so there's that!
Framedragger: (the SYN probes to the full ipv4 space are the easy part, and those have already been done across 3 different machines for maximum sciency science (http://siphnos.mkj.lt/datadrop/2017/port22-ip/); key extraction is the thing that's left)
Framedragger: (scan report: progress is slow, but still on track to get the re-scan and comparison (cf. last year) done in june)
Framedragger: herro.
Framedragger: "We intended to test the hypothesis that flattery of the academic Left’s moral architecture in general, and of the moral orthodoxy in gender studies in particular, is the overwhelming determiner of publication in an academic journal in the field." noshit.jpg but also applause.jpg
Framedragger: /me rolls on floor
Framedragger: "Some references cite the Postmodern Generator"
Framedragger: "paper" itself is good, too
Framedragger: "published in a respectable journal."
Framedragger: "The paper was ridiculous by intention, essentially arguing that penises shouldn’t be thought of as male genital organs but as damaging social constructions. We made no attempt to find out what “post-structuralist discursive gender theory” actually means. We assumed that if we were merely clear in our moral implications that maleness is intrinsically bad and that the penis is somehow at the root of it, we could get the paper
Framedragger: hehe
