mircea_popescu: "[116] I have previously concluded, on a balance of probabilities, that these documents were intended to illegally assert a debt against the Officer and Alberta, and that the attempt to file the documents Powell notarized is an indictable criminal offense. Powell is obviously in breach of the Code of Conduct."
mircea_popescu: then the bit where he attacks the notary is particularly precious.
mircea_popescu: gee whiz, i wonder where plaintif caught on this idea that "unless you so and so in 30 days you so and so"
mircea_popescu: doh. he doesn't think you're special. because you're all equals and whatnot. what's so hard to grasp ?
mircea_popescu: ct, s 23.1(3), should the Minister of Justice and Attorney General wish to do so within that period of time. Absent any submissions this order will become final on November 6, 2015." << the best part is that the dude spent a while harping about how bullshit foisted agreements are bullshit ; then went on to do EXACTLY the same ; and all the while fails to understand wtf exactly impels the guy to behave thusly.
mircea_popescu: "[112] I make the above order on an interim basis effective immediately. In keeping with the procedure adopted in R v Fearn, at para 54, Chutskoff v Bonora, at para 138, and Lymer (Re), 2014 ABQB 696 (CanLII) at para 58, final operation of this Order is stayed for 30 days until November 6, 2015 to allow the Minister of Justice and Solicitor General to make submissions to change or vary this order, per Judicature A
mircea_popescu: check out the great laws they got up north!
mircea_popescu: 24.(1) Every one who, having an intent to commit an offence, does or omits to do anything for the purpose of carrying out the intention is guilty of an attempt to commit the offence whether or not it was possible under the circumstances to commit the offence."
mircea_popescu: " The fact that this Court would never have entered Boisjoli’s materials as a default judgment that could then be enforced by ‘conventional’ means is immaterial. Criminal Code, s 24(1) is explicit that the fact an attempt to commit an offence could not succeed is irrelevant to whether or not that offence was attempted:
mircea_popescu: epic. civil procedure applied to criminal code adjudications.
mircea_popescu: "For the purposes of this vexatious litigation decision what is important is whether or not delivering the September 25, 2015 documents to the Alberta Court of Queen’s Bench satisfies the actus reus and mens rea requirements of Criminal Code, s 423.1. On a balance of probabilities, I conclude that it does."
BingoBoingo: 17 months of Qntra, with 5 of them at the helm... I though I hit a significant milestone. Then it turns out that either I was honestly confused for Mircea Popescu or just maybe... Luke-Jr just tried to steal that milestone because he has so much contempt for me he was compelled to steal my satisfaction.
BingoBoingo: ;;later tell Luke-Jr Fuck yourself for editing that reddit comment and taking my glow away. I want you to go to the grave of blessed Mary mother of Jesus and very deeply and profoundly fuck yourself.
BingoBoingo: !down Luke-Jr Before you take my glow away
BingoBoingo: No it's Mircea doesn't have time to write that much for Qntra.
Luke-Jr: wait, that's you? I thought it was mircea_popescu
BingoBoingo: I have no idea when I'm going to stop glowing about recieving special contempt from Luke-Jr
BingoBoingo: Does anyone know if there's a prize for that
assbot: luke-jr comments on "Intel Chips To Get Slower" <- Particularly relevant for scaling ... ( http://bit.ly/1SyNCVe )
BingoBoingo: In other news that time you personally get called a lunatic by Luke-Jr and not just a lunatic, but the only lunatic whose opinon doesn't matter. https://archive.is/ChHAo
BingoBoingo: <asciilifeform> BingoBoingo: the slashdot thing is raw sewage. srsly i 'want my five minutes back' plox. << Ask gasenwagen driver for a cigarette when the time comes
mircea_popescu: it is provedly consistent (what'd be a "mathematical corectness" and empirically applicable with great predictive power. that's... not it.)
mircea_popescu: and when i say "not yet seen" i mean that in the strongest sense. not seen ONCE. fucking darwinism is not PROVEDLY correct.
mircea_popescu: math is nice and good, but a method or mechanism through which to prove the corectness of implementation in the sense contemplated here is not yet seen and altogether may be an impossibility.
mircea_popescu: then you invalidate the assumptions in practice without realising and heuristics eats your lunch.
mircea_popescu: moreover, it's sadly unclear what the task even is. yes you can rigurously define assumptions ; yes you can rigurously prove safety.
asciilifeform: (for n00bz, i will remind, factoring was never demonstrated to be np-complete)
asciilifeform: in fact, as far as i can tell, this has ~never been done at all~
asciilifeform: the gotcha is, there is no shortage of demonstrably np-complete problem classes; but converting one into a cryptosystem, esp. ~safely~ is nontrivial
asciilifeform: ~the~ canonical work on the subject, quarter century in
mircea_popescu: actually the 4 color map thing is in my head just as good if not better than knapsack ☟︎
asciilifeform expected to see the maths crackpots come out in full strength, propose martian oddities based on, e.g., graph isomorphisms problem, or vertex colouring
asciilifeform: if this is the best anybody had to offer, the field is deader than i thought.
asciilifeform: l0l this is what i wanted to do, recall
mircea_popescu: believe it or not, sifting all the incoming email produced some nuggets.
asciilifeform: next up, trilema antigravity prize ?
mircea_popescu: and besides, i'm not asking them to solve it, i'm just saying, should you have a solution...
mircea_popescu: eh, what do they know.
asciilifeform: !up toffoo
asciilifeform: re: the cipher thread, gotta love how nobody complained re: mircea_popescu asking folks to solve an unsolved mathematical problem, the answer to which eluded two great empires for half a century.
asciilifeform: and in the 'roadmap' link we specifically see 'xilinx.'
asciilifeform: ^ 'open toolchain fpga' will happen some time after pigs fly over a frozen hell.
asciilifeform: BingoBoingo: the slashdot thing is raw sewage. srsly i 'want my five minutes back' plox.

mircea_popescu: i suppose the fiat world has burned these poor people so consistently (see the plouffe thing recently discussed, see the notorious wolfram thing etc) it's just the default expectation. and then ~bitcoin~ is the scam.
mircea_popescu: "Anyhow, it would be a bunch of work for 10 BTC. Hardly worth anyone's time, given this bozo is gonna take all the credit, you probably don't even get fame nor fortune..." << jesus almighty. this is why it's fucking public, and lordship and all that, right ?
mircea_popescu: what colors are your bits, bitch! and how much entropy is there in this dword ?
mircea_popescu: "256 bits has sufficient entropy to render any brute force attack, and even severe weakening (e.g. sq root effort attacks) utterly infeasible." << dude where the fuck do they come from.

BingoBoingo: brb, stepping away from the anti-social media
BingoBoingo: Ok, this comment might actually take the LSD cake: "This is likely not for *encryption*." Goes on about proof of work http://tech.slashdot.org/comments.pl?sid=8713235&cid=51450657
BingoBoingo: Prolly do lsd trying to unknow?
mircea_popescu: "Behold, Mr Mackey, riding a horse so naturally it makes your dick hard. And there be bitches, oh yes." << i wonder what knowitall derp'd do if he actually knew what he's talking about.
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo the internet is but a series of tubes. see c) above.
BingoBoingo: Now /.adventure this shit spreads https://www.reddit.com/r/Buttcoin/comments/44d8je/slashdot_knows_of_our_butterfiend_mircea_popescu/czphupg
mircea_popescu: mats i guess that's right, surfer chicks do end up looking 514 by the time they're out of college.
BingoBoingo: The scary thing is she dreams of someone doing that to her
mircea_popescu: this is how you create the singularity.
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo that part is easy : a) you cook a bunch of slop ; b) you catch the sow and chain her down ; c) you insert one tube in ass and another tube in mouth (should be same size, orientation indifferent) and then you d) pour.
BingoBoingo: But I'm glad MP no longer can disbelieve the one on the right being 21 because "No way she's 21, that isn't enough time to eat so much"
BingoBoingo: Modded +4 Interesting with "The block cipher is a proof of work function which takes some effort to compute."
BingoBoingo: My favorite acid trip from MP's /. adventure http://tech.slashdot.org/comments.pl?sid=8713235&cid=51449793
mircea_popescu: cuz she looks 34 to me ?
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo no way chick on the left is 21.

mircea_popescu: am i the only one that sees it ?
mircea_popescu: pure conjecture, but towards a unified theory of cryptography!
mircea_popescu: ascii_butugychag honestly, i suspect a) all actual cryptography revolves around º and º' pairs and b) rsa is the only one where º = º' = multiplication.
ascii_butugychag: (actually posing the question often produces many little 'bill gates'-en, who famously uttered a hope that one day 'science may discover a means of factoring large primes')
ascii_butugychag: i kinda wonder, how many of the folks barfing, could explain how, e.g., rsa, works, to save own life
ascii_butugychag: or is the magic spoodge of the fuhrer, reward enough.
mircea_popescu: nm that i linked to djb's 500-1k typical rewards for the field to help them avoid stepping in that one.
mircea_popescu: o hey, check it out, all the rotinculo that live off foodstamps know what a reward sum SHOULD have been.
BingoBoingo: <mircea_popescu> "Not satire, just stupid and wrong." lol BingoBoingo just how much derp butthurt have you produced today ? << Less than usual actually.
mats: was this socat thing even rsa?
assbot: Logged on 22-09-2015 01:22:33; asciilifeform: 'The real power, the power we have to fight for night and day, is not power over things, but over men.' He paused, and for a moment assumed again his air of a schoolmaster questioning a promising pupil: 'How does one man assert his power over another, Winston?' Winston thought. 'By making him suffer,' he said. 'Exactly. By making him suffer. Obedience is not enough. Unless he is sufferin
ascii_butugychag: now this is so.
mircea_popescu: pain is a lot more honest emotion than pleasure.
ascii_butugychag: and there are always more, more, more... of them.
ascii_butugychag: mircea_popescu, i suppose, is a natural-born exterminator. whereas i see crushing, poisoning vermin as hard thankless work
mircea_popescu: what's it hurt the cheloid ?
mircea_popescu: i'll be honest with you : i actually prefer encountering scar tissue to actual people. i have many more toys for the former, that i wouldn't normally apply on humans.
ascii_butugychag: yes, there is a figure, from a distance. wax doll.
ascii_butugychag has been trying to detect 'signs of intelligent life' in the cryptological world, a very depressing exercise
mircea_popescu: "Not satire, just stupid and wrong." lol BingoBoingo just how much derp butthurt have you produced today ?
mircea_popescu: "i do not know of a way to do math - i went to MIT"
ascii_butugychag: or, for that matter, of euclid
mircea_popescu: While it’s unknown how Wang chose the prime, other commenters on the post said that checks in OpenSSL and other tools used to generate primes cannot be sure if the numbers are prime. Rieger told Threatpost: “I do not know if a quick way exists to check this definitely. No attempts were made at all.” << and we never heard of phuctor etc.
mircea_popescu: if they weren't they'd have made 4kb.
mircea_popescu: "Socat said it has generated a new prime that is 2048 bits long" << clearly evil.
mircea_popescu: and in other trottin' out whores news, http://41.media.tumblr.com/f94d43d7284028537e591427b0a2f291/tumblr_nurxnsJcS81qlne6uo1_1280.jpg

ascii_butugychag: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=05-02-2016#1397344 << that'd be 9 but seems like bucephalus is blackholed ☝︎
mircea_popescu: ever since the previous spammer sold my site to the current one people ever give less and less of a shit! oh if only i could be friends with a rich guy like slashdot!
mircea_popescu lookes over at stats ; check that out, slashdotting counts for something like 2-3% of ordinary trilema traffic.
ascii_butugychag: is there somewhere, i wonder, a perl script, that pastes this pediwikian claptrap in
ascii_butugychag: Proving hardness is something you do for asymmetrical ciphers, but asymmetrical ciphers are way too slow to be useful for actual messages.'
ascii_butugychag: 'Also, he awards bonus points for proofs of hardness. No one has managed to prove hardness for any existing block cipher. Block ciphers are simply ways to jumble the plaintext up in a reversible fashion. They are not based on difficult mathematical problems.
mircea_popescu: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=05-02-2016#1397344 <<< this is good for bitcoin. ☝︎
