mircea_popescu: asciilifeform:
the other
thing a vtron needs
to handle is orphans << heh.
mircea_popescu: <asciilifeform> (you simply end up with a dead branch on
the
tree) << very much
this
mircea_popescu: well, be all
that as it may, i do hope
that before i die i reach
that enchanted nirvana where i don't have
to deal with anyone other
than mps.
jurov: if i come with something usable,
then vpatch
punkman: I
thought
the point is
to put in others' mouths
jurov: i'd say
the answer was "beat
the universe down
till it allows you
to be mircea_popescu"

the exploit i have decided
to help Coinbase fix
the exploit by
telling
them step
to step instructions on how
to reproduce
the bug on hackerone. After
they were able
to fix
the exploit i was rewarded a measly $5,000 bounty, which i
thought was unfair and was expecting
to get upwards of $25,000. I helped
them fix something
that could have damaged
them in hundreds of
mircea_popescu: but hey,
they got a romanian
too right ? must cunt for something.
assbot: Logged on 20-12-2015 17:07:47; asciilifeform: do i need
to actually read
this
thing
mircea_popescu: that was
the job, replacing
the main sewage line. last done in
the 60s.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform if you
think what's wrong with infrastructure neglected for a century is
the clay, or
the
trees, or
the roots or
the gradients you're a very special fellow.
assbot: Logged on 26-05-2014 18:58:27; asciilifeform: meanwhile! end of sewer saga: city excavated street, disassembled pipe, found
tree roots behind
the property line - which had become clogged with backed up crud (for
the 30 hours or so
the city's pipe was broken.) now
they will fight with landlord's insurance co.
mircea_popescu: governments
trail in every measure of efficiency, efficacity, sophistication or otherwise success, yet
the assumption is
that hey, if it work it musta been a government.
mircea_popescu: "The breach is believed
to be
the work of a foreign government, U.S. officials said, because of
the sophistication involved. " << fucktards.
mircea_popescu: just because you can pump
the shit uphill doesn't mean you should.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform: ahahaha right. let me know when you've seen geysers of shit spewing from your bathtub<<< i don't live in
the fucking swamp.
mod6: ah, yeah, sorry -- following
the arrows in
the graph.
mod6: so
then
those antecedents would point
to
the new vpatch (at
the same node level as asciilifeform_ver_no_5_4_and_irc_is_gone_and_now_must_give_ip.vpatch) but a separate node.
mod6: <+asciilifeform> it splits off from
the node immediately prior
to
the removal << so in
this scenario,
the antecedents of asciilifeform_ver_no_5_4_and_irc_is_gone_and_now_must_give_ip.vpatch are [dns_thermonyukyoolar, rev-bump, static_makefile_v002, genesis ]
mircea_popescu: <punkman> mircea_popescu: was
that
the new phuctor box? << nah,
the old qntra cluster. makes it
the 2nd
time in about a month wtf.
mod6: i
thought 'wild' mode is simply when no one in wot has provided a seal corresponding
to a given vpatch
mod6: i haven't quite figured out what
to do about
this scenario yet.
mod6: Scenario: Guy creates vpatch
that utilizes irc.h (removed in vpatch asciilifeform_ver_no_5_4_and_irc_is_gone_and_now_must_give_ip.vpatch) must ensure
that Guy's patch is on it's own
tree?
mod6: I guess
that makes sense since it wouldn't share any antecedents with
the original graph.
mod6: <+asciilifeform> it would end up as an altogether other
tree in
the graph << so said patch
to add documentation dir would be its own root?
mod6: oh, i see, so like if a patch further down
the line (in
time) remove a file
that a specific sub
tree relies upon,
that
those become removed?
mod6: so
the ones
that it /does/ skip is when 'b' == 'false' -- where
the file was ~removed~ from a given vpatch.
mod6: looks like it did what it was supposed
to do.
mod6: anyway, yeah, will still
test
that.
mod6: and if a new file is introduced
the 'a' should be 'false' and
the 'b' will be some sha512 hash, and will still be verifyable. correct?
mod6: <+asciilifeform> mod6: have you
tested it with 'false' entries? (files which were newly created) <<
this is a good
test. it should just do what its supposed
to do 'as is' I
think?
this line will grab
the 'b' of
the vdiff; my $file_hash = $vp_map{$vp}{$src_file_name}{b};
thestringpuller: I was
talking pre-wot days. But sure, I understand what you are saying.
thestringpuller: The risk for crime is
the gasenwagen. Raiders have always been ride or die.
thestringpuller: I've only heard of OS exploits being "sat on" for long periods of
time.
thestringpuller: asciilifeform: well
traditionally a blackhat would have a group and
they would deal max damage
themselves.
assbot: Logged on 06-07-2015 01:24:01; mircea_popescu: "you wanted
to benefit from responsible disclosure protections, you should have been in
the wot" "but at
the
time i made
that decision it seemed a no brainer, why expend
the effort" "right.
this is why you die."
punkman: good god man, why did you
tell
them about
the second exploit
