asciilifeform: ben_vulpes: barfed after reading the written materials.
ben_vulpes: the "not a vote for b, but a vote against everything else" line made me tilt my head.
asciilifeform: ^ whole thing actually interesting and worth reading.
asciilifeform: 'A number of IETF standards groups are currently in the process of applying the second-system effect to redesigning their crypto protocols. A major feature of these changes includes the dropping of traditional encryption algorithms and mechanisms like RSA, DH, ECDH/ECDSA, SHA-2, and AES, for a completely different set of mechanisms, including Curve25519 (designed by Dan Bernstein et al), EdDSA (Bernstein and colleagues), Poly

BingoBoingo: Aha follow up to:
asciilifeform: 'The person who pushed the commit is Gerhard Rieger who is the same person who fixed it a year later. In the comment he refers to an Oracle employee at the time who has yet to comment on his mistake. It also seems like his github account and his personnal websites were deleted the day this security advisory was published.

deedbot-: [Qntra] Rockefeller Family Fund Divests From Industry That Made Rockefeller Family Fortune - http://qntra.net/2016/03/rockefeller-family-fund-divests-from-industry-that-made-rockefeller-family-fortune/
PeterL: so, the 8 minutes is more like 'about a block time'?
asciilifeform: PeterL: this is 'bang-bang corrected'
PeterL: I thought blocks were 10 minutes?
asciilifeform: the db is the single most retarded bit.
mircea_popescu: it's like you know, "what makes the smoke raise up like smoke". turbulence is complicated, son.
asciilifeform: the answer appears to be block time.
PeterL: does that make it a good question or a bad question?
mircea_popescu: this question is extremely hard to answer.
PeterL: and does it have a reason to flush every 8 minutes (or just a magic number)?
mircea_popescu: when it flushes, it just makes the disk image sufficient.
mircea_popescu: PeterL bitcoin [still] uses berkleydb which uses a strange sort of self-memory caching, which makes the data saved on disk during functioning insufficient to reconstruct the db situation.
assbot: Rockefellers Dump Exxon Holdings That Made Family's Fortune - Bloomberg Business ... ( http://bit.ly/1MEGVJK )
PeterL: No, serenity is finished along with the rest of Firefly
shinohai: ;;8ball Will serenity return to tmsr ?
assbot: Logged on 24-03-2016 13:37:36; PeterL: kakobrekla if nubbins` is still in L1, and rage negrates everybody -10, would that keep a bunch of people from self-voicing?
danielpbarron: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=24-03-2016#1440018 << no. the way ratings work, since assbot gave everyone only +1, that is the most that can be passed along into its L2. The most a lord can do to another lord is take them down 2 points (if they already had giving them a postive rating and switched it to negative) ☝︎
mircea_popescu: i suppose they found the proof in saddam's biochem weapons cache or somesuch.
mircea_popescu: is this a redo of the "chinese hackers" fail from a coupla years back, just tried with a smaller power that's not as likely to make them eat their hands ?
assbot: Iranians Hacked From Wall Street to New York Dam, U.S. Says - Bloomberg Business ... ( http://bit.ly/1SjvAmV )
shinohai: Preet is going to save us from Iranian hackers too apparently: http://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2016-03-24/u-s-charges-iranian-hackers-in-wall-street-cyberattacks-im6b43tt
asciilifeform: comes with the territory!11
mircea_popescu: we're opening way too many historical casks with this thing huh
asciilifeform: but, i will point out, they also had 'my commander is an arse'-seppuku.
asciilifeform: i'm fond of the japanese admirals, myself
mircea_popescu: very talented poet guy.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform guy wrote the silver toothed boar thing, and others.
mircea_popescu: people's purposes are theirs to weigh.
mircea_popescu: romania's all time best ballerina killed herself when her husband died. a lot more common than readily admitted, this.
kakobrekla: im not too fond of Egyptian style of burial where a bunch of live folk gets sealed in the tomb together with the mummy
mircea_popescu: if it happens, yeah. then again... is it better to have loved and lost sanity than to never have sanitized at all.
kakobrekla: that is a bad thing.
mircea_popescu: it fails to maximize your collection of hamburgers.
kakobrekla: being loyal to jumping out of window is stupid
mircea_popescu: there is no such thing as "seeing" loyalty. loyalty is always blind. when it's not blind it's called seeing your interest.
assbot: Logged on 24-03-2016 15:12:01; mircea_popescu: anyway, i'm not going to read the latest installments in fiatista turdology, much like hte prev ones. nor do i need to, they're perpetually the same crud. in any case : loyalty is not a bad thing. loyalty to bad people is a bad thing, but loyalty in general is the only saving grace of manhood. the one probem socialism generally encounters is loyalty, which is why the whole song and dance.
kakobrekla: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=24-03-2016#1440063 < blind loyalty is a bad thing in any case ☝︎
assbot: Logged on 24-03-2016 12:11:43; davout: kakobrekla: ^ isn't it supposed to werk that way?
kakobrekla: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=24-03-2016#1439889 < ahh i think i forgot to edit the !down part, did just the !up ☝︎
assbot: Microsoft Left Impaired AI To Suffer Twitter Humiliation | Qntra ... ( http://bit.ly/1VJognr )
mircea_popescu: see asciilifeform tis not "the enemy!" that's having the most lulz. by and large such enemy is either too petrified to laugh for a decade+, or else if too dumb to be so petrified, also too dumb to see the humour. nah, most laughs are had by people doing other things, a la fluffy here. fine position to both appreciate the humour of it and remote enough to not go into seizures over it.
fluffypony: otherwise you learn nothing and you're forever forced to wallow in your own ignorance
fluffypony: sorry but the rule is you have to read the logs, no exceptions
mircea_popescu: people new to the topic of how the democratic cancer spreads may just as well read orlov's last bit linked by alf, or any other of ten billion treatises on the topic.
mircea_popescu: anyway, i'm not going to read the latest installments in fiatista turdology, much like hte prev ones. nor do i need to, they're perpetually the same crud. in any case : loyalty is not a bad thing. loyalty to bad people is a bad thing, but loyalty in general is the only saving grace of manhood. the one probem socialism generally encounters is loyalty, which is why the whole song and dance. ☟︎
mircea_popescu: heh, so in the end kakobrekla fix does not actually work ? word.
thestringpuller: that's the images tho.
thestringpuller: 18.19s on 50kbps throttling
nubbins`: how long to load 1MB on, e.g., ISDN?
thestringpuller: well the size of the load
nubbins`: all ver can control is the size of the pipes on HIS end.
nubbins`: but to an extend, that depends on my internet connection
thestringpuller: nubbins`: doherty threshold is psychological. you are more likely to get distracted with another task if the computer doesn't respond under 400ms
nubbins`: thestringpuller depends on the width of the tube, no?
jurov: the last thing i need is to convince myself i see more light than $someone . was bitten too many times by that.
thestringpuller: lol ver is bragging his website loads > doherty threshold.
nubbins` unsure if he should go to tvtropes, reddit, forum first
assbot: Logged on 24-03-2016 13:03:58; nubbins`: at the very least, it's heartwarming to see the actual people who actually do stuff (jurov, kako) seeing the light and calling out mp's shenanigans
jurov: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=24-03-2016#1439999 eh, go to tvtropes with these sentiments ☝︎
assbot: Trust relationship from user assbot to user nubbins`: Level 1: 1, Level 2: -1 via 13 connections. |http://www.btcalpha.com/wot/trust/?from=assbot&to=nubbins%60 | http://www.btcalpha.com/wot/user/nubbins%60/
fluffypony: I think other people would counterbalance the ratings if it came down to that
PeterL: gee, thanks
nubbins`: besides, i don't think anyone who actually talks in here has so few + ratings that i could negrate them into silence
PeterL: hmm, maybe I should not have said that where nubbins` could hear it? oops
nubbins`: the lordship list was never more than "a list of people mp felt were more-or-less beholden to his awesomeness"
assbot: Logged on 23-03-2016 23:43:30; mircea_popescu: and to be perfectly clear - it ~was~ my stupid fucking idea of seeding the lordship off the stats page on roughly the basis of activity that got us in this mess.
PeterL: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=23-03-2016#1439709 << heh, if lordship was seeded now, I might have made the cut? ☝︎
PeterL: kakobrekla if nubbins` is still in L1, and rage negrates everybody -10, would that keep a bunch of people from self-voicing? ☟︎
davout: anyway, this is a waste of everyone's time, bbl.
nubbins`: you sure they don't do it because fanboi?
nubbins`: i have 5 negative ratings: 4 of them are from mp, hanbot, dpb, trinque.
davout: nubbins`: because people don't negrate because they're fanbois, they negrate because you behave like an obnoxious child
nubbins`: why would any self-respecting adult want to deal with that
PeterL: people can still !up you though
nubbins`: as of yesterday when mp tried to get kako to kick me out and kako said no
nubbins`: iirc the new rule is L1+L2 > 0
nubbins`: i got negrated by too many fanbois
nubbins`: this is the finish line
nubbins`: duod the next time i de-voice i can't re-voice
davout: well, not necessarily the haet but its constant repetition
davout: nubbins`: not like anyone'll insist on throwing you out if you simply cut the haet
