gernika: mod6: my 99996 node is wedging every 1k blocks or so. I would be happy
to apply any logging or debugging patches
that might be out
there
to help
track down
the problem.
mircea_popescu: i don't need "experts" and "universities"
to
tell me 1800 state of
the art.
mircea_popescu: so - if "cryptologists" can not produce what i ask of
them -
their wives,
to
the brothel,
they
themselves
to
the mines, for fraud.
☟︎ mircea_popescu: POINT BEING
that in order
to justify his oats, horse better pull cart more
than donkey.
mircea_popescu: which... i dun recall
the last
time i used a message longer
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform> otp. << if
the key is 64kb,
technically otp would work fine for message up
to 64kb.
thestringpuller: an exercise for
the reader is always a good exercise. I'll see what 'netsec'
tards at work say
to
that question.
assbot: Logged on 23-01-2016 15:35:48; asciilifeform: problem is
that one doesn't get
to 'make a name' in academe as 'cryptographer' by pushing rsa.
thestringpuller: i figure it's disinformation. but who am I
to argue with "crypto experts!!!11" and such
thestringpuller: asciilifeform: dunno if
this was in logs. but why is
the "crypto comoonity" opposed
to RSA?

the 100k is a salary, 100 years of
that buys you a house where your job is. you denying
this ?
mircea_popescu: "if you make
the list of places, and cross out
the places where you woujldn't want
to be seen,
the result is
the list of cool places"
mircea_popescu: you have
to understand cool is a political concept, much like "declase" in french salon world of 1800.
mircea_popescu: then again i suppose
there's some middle aged lawyers somewhere
that remember
the days facebook was really cool.
☟︎ mircea_popescu: i remember
the days, back when
the mothers of
the current crop of internet kids were still sucking cock on public grounds,
that slashdot was really cool.
BingoBoingo: <mircea_popescu> apparently i'm "self exiled
to argentina" because i'm fucking local now. << I did
that
troll
mircea_popescu: they decided
that
the
true reason (tm) must be workfunction-something.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform finding
threads for events after
the event is a fun sort of historical game. nevertheless,
the events are
the events.
mircea_popescu: dude wasn't slashdot supposed
to be made out of informed people and whatnot ?
mircea_popescu: derp #2 : Nothing.
The guy is just a fool who believes
that bigger block size is better. He's a very obvious sufferer of
the Dunning Kruger effect [wikipedia.org]
mircea_popescu: ake
this postining). Even
the NSA
trusts AES enough
to certify it for use protecting
top secret information."
mircea_popescu: derp #1 : "What is wrong with existing block ciphers like AES? AES has been in widespread use for over a decade and
to
the best of my knowledge,
there is still no practical attack on it (unless someone has built a working quantum computer and not
told anyone about it). Its
totally free of patents and IP issues. Its been implemented in a huge variety of hardware and software (including
the Intel CPU
that I am using
to m
☟︎ mircea_popescu: well... i suppose if you find prior art re moore's law ima buy slashdot and redirect it
to logs.
assbot: Logged on 06-02-2016 16:45:04; mircea_popescu: see alf ? you don't know
things!
mircea_popescu: i wish
to see place where person in position of management/responsibility makes decision and publicly backs it by plain statement
that moore law's a delusion.
mircea_popescu: apparently i'm "self exiled
to argentina" because i'm fucking local now. apparently my slaves are "whores" because hey, "it's unfair" or whatever.
mircea_popescu: there's all
this constant "oh i know why
this person
that's better
than me did what he did, let me
tell you!" bullshit.
mircea_popescu: what exactly is "breakinjg down" about me
telling some random farmer at political rally why he can't have living wage ?
mircea_popescu: I
think I know what (s)he is
talking about - it's similar
to
this one
https://vimeo.com/7125141 [vimeo.com] , and involves MP breaking down in
the face of confrontation. Not necessarily crying per se, but he acts like a kid who has been
told he can't go out and play until he eats his broccoli. Might even be
the same event, but
this video was put out by MP and is edited
to make MP look good, at least in his own eyes. <<
mircea_popescu: and it is routine for rapists
to kill
their victims, in same anglo world. what of it ?
assbot: Logged on 06-02-2016 16:30:26; mircea_popescu: dude... fuck delusional "courts bans". no court has
the power
to prevent public communication OF ANYTHING.
mircea_popescu: and now my dear friends, ima be off
to send keys over wires. bbl.
assbot: Logged on 06-02-2016 16:16:03; danielpbarron:
turn based, so latency isn't an issue
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform if
the 100k is a salary, 100 years of
that buys you a house where your job is. you denying
this ?
☟︎ mircea_popescu: from same person, five minutes later, "Wait. 'Uses a 64 kbyte key' - is he mad? Does he realize
the
trouble he will have
to go
through when he has
to
transport over a network, or do a key agreement on, keys of
that size?"
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform "- He says current block ciphers suck. Why? It doesn't really become clear from
the discussion, which seems
to be between
two people who have heard a little bit about cryptography, and are
trying
to outdo each other in what little knowledge
they have."
☟︎ mircea_popescu: of course you can get
the exact same also free, but
then again
that requires "skill".
mircea_popescu: you can buy
the same results from google for ~ 1-300 bucks, and seeing how slashdot has 15 items per first page and apparently a new set daily,
the upper bound of its productive value would
then be somewhere between 45000 and say 100k per month.
mircea_popescu: 19ish
to 14ish let's say, about 19 hours.
the net value of being a majorily contested news item on slashdot first page is ~3500 unique visitors, ~4500 pages read for an average of 1.28 (or in practice, using
the 1% rule, ~3 people read
the news item and left, ~300 people read 3-4 pages each and may be back).
mircea_popescu: o look at
that, bb's story still on slashdot first page.
mircea_popescu: this is all coincidence and has exactly nothing
to do with mp, of course.
assbot: Logged on 06-02-2016 13:58:34; pete_d_out: speaking of power consumption and moore's law, i hadn't realised
that intel had claimed
that
the ~pentium 4~ would reach 10 ghz, nor
that
they actually manufactured
the p4 at 3.8 ghz... in 2008.
the only reason higher power outputs weren't produced en masse was
that, apparently,
the chips were already consuming 130w at 3.8 ghz and power consumption scaled linearly from
there.

they suppose
they will feed iPads 3D graphics
