mircea_popescu: you're also very likely right re nat router keys. junk of
the junk.
mircea_popescu: fromphuctor i dunno if you've seen
the logs, but
the idea
to add ssh keyscan was accepted upon discussion.
fromphuctor: in particular i have
the SUSPECT
that router from juniper and cisco might build random keys
that are not random at all
fromphuctor: today i am wondering if you ever compared
the keys
to see if any clone is found
fromphuctor: yesterday i suggested
to play with ssh-keyscan
mircea_popescu: and if it won't do
this,
the fact
that it graciously doesn't require me
to write my own asm jumps or whatnot is irrelevant already.
mircea_popescu: there is absolutely no reason, nor can
there be any reason, c compiler can't
take
two strings, such as
the decameron and
the collected works of shakespeare, and multiply
them
together, as fucking numbers, and spit out
the result. none.
mircea_popescu: which is how longhand multiplication even fucking works, on
the basis of strings-and-regexp pretty much.
mircea_popescu: the compiler is more
than happy
to make a linked list of fixints and do
the carryovers as required.
mircea_popescu: who
the fuck
things
these shitboxes are even computers when i get n digits eval
to 0, NaN and whatever other bullshit ?!
ascii_deadfiber: mircea_popescu:
there is no easy answer
to ~how
to represent~
them
mircea_popescu: seriously, i gotta say ANYTHING more
than "bigint"
to get
this ?
mircea_popescu: ascii_deadfiber and while on
this
topic : it beggars belief
that bignum-as-linked-list-of-any-size-up-to-avail-ram is not a fucking standard in gcc in 2016.
ascii_deadfiber: i do suspect
that
the enemy knows some factoid re prime distribution
that makes factoring randints easier
ascii_deadfiber: if
the only implementation of something were in js, it hasn't actually been implemented yet.

http://www.javascripter.net/math/primes/millerrabinbug-bigint54.htm as well as "However, if you
try
to pass an odd number n greater
than 2^53
the
test will not work because
the argument would actually
turn out
to be some other number approximately equal
to
the desired odd number: JavaScript/IEEE754 cannot exactly represent odd numbers
that large!"

the way all

the game progresses more and more moves have

BingoBoingo: I dunno,
the cheese is roughly as equal as some "Americans", but fxing
ascii_deadfiber: shit can be drilled
through, but how does one know where
to drill..
ascii_deadfiber: witness
that ~nobody walks in asking after
trb, for instance.
ascii_deadfiber: in
that
the shitcocoon
they spray around everything we do is quite opaque, even
to
thinking folk
BingoBoingo: <ascii_deadfiber> he's
the 'replacement story'
tho << No, hoaxtoshi and nao petrocheese stockpiles are

ascii_deadfiber: just crapping out
the oodles of small primes a
typical int is divisible by
mircea_popescu: dun worry bout it, he won't be able
to outlive it no matter what else he does. from experience half a decade later or w/e he'll start whining about how it should be deleted.
mircea_popescu: herpitty derp,
the world works like it's on fucking fire. anyway,
that exhausts my patience.
mircea_popescu: apparently
http://cado-nfs.gforge.inria.fr/ is what bernstein uses. except "Required software
tools [...] GNU make and CMake (2.6.3 or later) for building (CMake is installed on
the fly if missing.
This feature requires an Internet connection.)" and
then Connecting
to cmake.org|66.194.253.19|:443... connected. ERROR: certificate common name `*.kitware.com' doesn't match requested host name `cmake.org'.

mircea_popescu: lmao "my vodka identifies as water -
therefore it is good for me!"

those proverbial millions of records require really beefy machines. 8gb of ram, fast flash drives, etc

☟︎ mircea_popescu: rly game looks spiffy (on all of
them!), as
the data moves from kb
to mb and
the node count goes up and on and on,
the
thing (all of
them!) collapses in a pile of uncaught, "nobodycouldhavepredicted" complexity explosions. and all
this because idiot/voodoo expert came up with
the brilliant idea of "hey, we make robot for your nuclear plant, and if it drops
the pu brick you just pick it up by hand and put it back in
the hopper
mircea_popescu: an expert rabbi, and finally verification be damned,
the MEANING of moves can't even be extracted anymore. all
this because instead of getting very clearly fundamental principles and sticking
to
them,
they followed
the "crazy shit stick on all sides of rifle" approach, with
the predictable (and predicted) result
that "you fuck it, it gets heavy, and you still don't hit large side of barn". so
that's exactly what happens : ea

to hear about what kinds of misery you've found in datomic. not
to doubt! never
to doubt
the misery of
technology. but out of curiosity, and limits-finding by proxy.

trinque:
tbh I'm willing
to consider
that if you wrote
too many layers of joins and views, you chose
the wrong data structure in
the beginning
mircea_popescu: historically, stonemasons had a better
time of it working for

mircea_popescu: poor hanno boeck & assorted shitbag parade,
they don't even run systems with native bignum support, wtf are
they gonna do now! 6723834688378347131962599764946917095897099 dun fit in javascript calculator mang, wat do!

that url
trend for "Hanno Böck caught lying", it'll no doubt do wonders for his career.
mircea_popescu: and holy shit does
twitter load a lot of spurious junk.
mircea_popescu: he even has a gavinesque retarded face, also. what's with all
these mongoloid cheeks everywhere in
the dumbass "computing co-manatee" ?
hanbot: not surprisingly
the
top referer is
trilema at ~~1000, followed by qntra at ~~600 and phuctor at ~~80. << wait, qntra's doing 60% of
trilema's load *without*
tits? very impressive.
BingoBoingo: And no,
the good fiber in
the midwest is in exurbs. Usually connects
to nearest urban center and a further urban center because
BingoBoingo: Turned out box rented back
then was crap still running node at home and not advertising, programable version string for reason
ascii_deadfiber: if it's urban centres, i need
those like i need second arse drilled.
BingoBoingo: Seriously, you get fiber in
the middle west,
that connects
to hubs in different directions. We discovered redundancy 3 years ago and nao everything is grand.
BingoBoingo: And ascii_deadfiber
thinks
the middle west is horribru
