diana_coman: hm, speaking of costa rica style...do they actually have hot water at the taps in costa rica (i.e. not shower only)?
BingoBoingo: <
diana_coman> asciilifeform, for ~1k bux you can probably fly to Ro and back and have the dentist treatment included too? << Also that sound like maybe 100-120 USD in Uruguay
Mocky:
diana_coman, no worries, prolly better to expose the issue sooner than later

diana_coman: Mocky, btw sorry for the mess up with your public key; did it actually create a problem other than the wrong wot.deedbot graph?

diana_coman:
http://btcbase.org/log/2018-10-09#1859786 -> I tend to agree; given how easily I could tell the poor lecturer what was in his inherited slides *before I even saw them*, I guess they literally have (echo of an echo)^n and it was anyway just some hearsay to start with

mircea_popescu:
diana_coman you know what'd have been the lulz of all time ? if both pastes had the same 5digit id
mircea_popescu:
diana_coman so you literally exported his key as yours ?

diana_coman: it's more a matter of wtf to do to get through to them in the least seeing how they are so ...far away on all dimensions to any reality
mircea_popescu:
diana_coman did you register... mocky's key... as your away key ?!

diana_coman: mircea_popescu, in London; though he did have a weird flight - went back to New York, repaired plane, went back
a111: Logged on 2018-10-08 18:54 asciilifeform envisions sumthing in the vein of hanbot's letter ( hey mod6 , did that ever get sent anywhere yet ? ) but obv the detail is up to
diana_coman's skilled hand
mircea_popescu:
diana_coman if you end up seeing Framedragger / jimmy hoffa / elvis tell them they're missed.
mircea_popescu:
diana_coman BingoBoingo has a point, including ample warnings of the dangers of hallucinated optionality, man-aloneism, following pr-rangerism, mit-ism, eterdation etc can't possibly hurt the young'uns.
mircea_popescu:
diana_coman is that not a good example ? bitcoin can be mentally reconstructed from fundamentals of rsa and db permanence.
BingoBoingo: I see nothing but upsides from
diana_coman doing the lecture
deedbot:
diana_coman updated rating of Mocky from 1 to 5 << Runs towards scary stuff rather than away from it. Met irl.
phf: asciilifeform: i don't have binary diffing even in prototype form, if you could adaize your needleman-wunsch i could add it to vtools, the way i did with
diana_coman's keccak

diana_coman: i like the new v format, but i also very strongly wish to avoid coming to resemble the urbit people, with their 'aah we restarted the universe for the 7th time'
phf:
diana_coman: kk, will test and upload
mircea_popescu:
diana_coman the situation somewhat salvaged by the happenstance that you can't be any of those under about 60 years of age or so. (with exceptions, but they're rare enough).

diana_coman: there really aren't so many things that legitimately call for 'streams', i have nfi what the standard authors were thinking...

mircea_popescu: imo we should have lookup version first and foremost. but if
diana_coman has the time/inclination, implemnenting both isn't the end of world anyway.
mircea_popescu:
diana_coman nah, listen, just implement a crc32. it's very simple indeed, i quited the polynomial used, just divide by it and keep the change.
ave1:
diana_coman, gnat has system.CRC32, it consumes characters
ave1:
diana_coman, I've been running your tester with large package sizes and so far zero errors (everything even stays in order so far).
a111: Logged on 2018-10-02 23:39 asciilifeform:
diana_coman: do you have one back in 'old blightey' ? or know of a place there where i oughta put one
lobbesbot:
diana_coman: Sent 5 hours and 56 minutes ago: <asciilifeform> your rk is redisked! and running; you may want to stand up yer www server (iirc it doesn't run on boot)
a111: Logged on 2018-10-03 00:38 asciilifeform:
diana_coman , lobbes : your old drives are currently in dulap, lemme know when you're ready to have'em reformatted ( so your boxen dun try an' boot from'em instead of the primary ) and reissued to you as secondary disks.

diana_coman:
http://btcbase.org/log/2018-10-02#1857110 -> if it's anything like mine, it'll be mostly loud complaints from php because "time zone not set!!!" and similar (apparently php version on the RC is too new for its own good)
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: Have an eta on when to do the
diana_coman switch?

diana_coman: asciilifeform, keccak can spit out as many or as few bits as you want it to, not sure what is you q there re keccak
mircea_popescu: ok, so this back of a digital envelope seems to suggest we want : 1. fixed size 1470 byte rsa packets, made to work with 3920-bit rsa (of which i presume the useful message size to be 1872 bit,
diana_coman plox to confirm maffs ?). such a packet has then 1696 bits spare for e and bullshit.
☟︎ mircea_popescu:
diana_coman 2944 bit rsa keys, meaning 1384 bit usable message space in the rsa packet ? with oaep and everything ?
mircea_popescu: ( and btw
diana_coman it's entirely possible this will mean republic might well inherit the format, seeing how the problem we are dealing with isn't of our own make -- others will run into it too.)
mircea_popescu:
diana_coman well, possibly. iirc we didn't specifically check for that.

diana_coman, mod6 , lobbes , also give signal re whether you want the newer iptables-enabled kernel to go on your boot sd , when we take the boxen down ( iirc we already did mod6's )
a111: Logged on 2018-10-01 21:14 asciilifeform:
diana_coman, mod6 , lobbes , let BingoBoingo & asciilifeform know when is good day to take down yer units and copy contents to new drives.
