Framedragger: mircea_popescu are you referring to the time-honoured "put some irc logs into deedbot" practice? :D (that i'd seen)
mircea_popescu: ben_vulpes just have it silenty discard all patches that aren't sealed properly for the narrow definition of properly neh ?
asciilifeform: ben_vulpes: not yet read
mircea_popescu: ben_vulpes to my eyes "the situation" ie, the developer's own private choice, illustrates the natural tendency of one to cruft up his workbench.
asciilifeform: ben_vulpes: if it didn't pass error codes, how the hell did it work to detect if sig was valid
ben_vulpes: mircea_popescu: only patch's fuzzy application, nothing more.
hanbot: x_x
asciilifeform: ben_vulpes: mismatched postpress hash should be impossible if fuzz is properly killed.
asciilifeform: ben_vulpes: no pubkey? seals dun count, unsealed patches -- invisible.
asciilifeform: ben_vulpes: i must disagree
mircea_popescu: ben_vulpes just like the wiki page, "other salads"

BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: Parked car predators know no limits after Micheal Brown put all that fear into poor Ferguson police officer back in 2014.
BingoBoingo: <mircea_popescu> the fucking point is - whatever some old fart with a good old fart story the other old farts eat up THOUGHT, the street tough didn't think he made a good "fiedl operative". in positive fact he made a good victim and no more. << /me read it as old fart who was was befroe becoming old fart thought child robber would make good field operative. But the crime as I read is he doesn't figure that the child already is a field oe

asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: the 'loc == revenue' is simply this century's version of chinese/su 'moar steel, revenue!'
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: we had thread about musculature of pan troglodytes, where many fewer cells in the muscle than a man's, but he can tear the man in half. so even for an ordinary mechanical 'strength', counting mass is nonsense.

a111: Logged on 2016-12-24 17:00 gabriel_laddel: to complete the autodialer picture: the latest way american corps try to do "IP protection" is to only let you access data from one phone. Writing a program to drive stylus + camera that digs through arbitrary apps and sucks all the information out of them using OCR would be a lot of fun
gabriel_laddel_p: seems I didn't delete new key, but rather forgot to change my nick to gabriel_laddel_p

gabriel_laddel: mircea_popescu: yes.
gabriel_laddel: mircea_popescu: what's on your mind?
gabriel_laddel: mircea_popescu: I was working for a startup a while ago - but they released toxic fumes into the air without a fume hood, so I quit.
mircea_popescu is curious if the forum will prefer gabriel_laddel parked in sv start-up over gabriel_laddel parked in park.
asciilifeform: gabriel_laddel: how's the hardware biz?
gabriel_laddel: for some reason this required a restart of the application, which _should not be a thing_ in cl.

a111: Logged on 2016-12-24 14:17 mircea_popescu: asciilifeform thinking about it, the walker scheme doesn't seem too great. the theoretical objection is that it ~does~ introduce structure, through the convention that the walker moves from where it last moved. in practice though, run a few simulations over a 16bit message which you can then print as a 256x256 bitmap. your walker makes anthills basically.
mircea_popescu: ben_vulpes lol that leclerc dude is visiting your blog on a weekly basis ? 2, 9, then nobody gave a shit so he skipped 16 and i guess 23, we see him on the 30th ?

asciilifeform: you can generalize for n-dimensions, as mircea_popescu suggested earlier, similarly.
asciilifeform: whole point is to minimize the information conveyed to enemy by knowing about the, e.g., 'To: mircea_popescu' inside; and to maximize the consequences of a misguessed plaintext bit in a cryptoanalysis.
asciilifeform: so now mircea_popescu sees why i wanted a noncircular tape -- then the enemy knows nothing about the ultimate length of the output
asciilifeform: so mircea_popescu's exercise might add up to an entire ~minute~...
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: all schemes where the transform is of 'payload itself' and 0 entropy, suffer from immediate 'penguin problem', https://blog.filippo.io/content/images/2015/11/Tux_ecb.jpg . ☟︎☟︎☟︎
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu and others can probably think of some useful and interesting variations on this scheme.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: gpg used PKCS #1 v1.5 (see rfc4880)
jhvh1: mircea_popescu: PKCS - Wikipedia: <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PKCS>; PKCS 12 - Wikipedia: <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PKCS_12>; PKCS 11 - Wikipedia: <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PKCS_11>
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: pretty much all of the extant schemes resolve to some variant of that. the problem is that ~all~ of them introduce structure
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: it can in principle be as short as 3n
asciilifeform: BUT enemy knows that plaintext(first_half[0]) ^ plaintext(second_half[0]) == 'T'
asciilifeform: say i want to encipher (dun matter with what) a string, 'To: mircea_popescu Subj: thermonuke launch codes ...' ☟︎
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: the tape size cannot be known to decoder in advance
asciilifeform: that being said, there are good methods for certain special cases, if mircea_popescu's diophantines are of a particular ~kind~ i might be able to hit up my dead trees for an algo.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: see also hilbert's 10th.
a111: Logged on 2016-12-23 14:07 mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2016-12-21#1587182 << speaking of this, here's a question for the eager : a diophantine equation is a multivariate polynomial, something like ax+by^2 = 0. the question is : given an arbitrary finite set of known-good equations, can you use recursion to decide whether an arbitrary equation in the same variables is good (has integer solution) or no good ?
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2016-12-23#1589135 << describe plox in slightly more detail : 1) what means 'known good' 2) what means 'same variables' ☝︎

a111: Logged on 2016-12-19 18:48 mircea_popescu: anyway, to be fair here : the russians have no interest in waiting ; putin might be uncharacteristically meek, but in general a half dozen us ambassadors starting with the resident in manilla within the next week-10days is perfectly possible. at which point obama actually having the gall to call natl emergency and set aside the transfer of power is not entirely inconceivable. after which the russians WILL sink all the us carr
