assbot: Logged on 23-05-2015 20:15:57; Apocalyptic: since p has exactly the same size as q I would say it's quite ok to use the size of p for both, although it's not intuitive that it's correct

gabriel_laddel: with it. As such, their product ends up as a label change from Windows/OSX to "phree1!" software. Impotence is boring, nobody cares.
assbot: Logged on 23-05-2015 12:18:51; Apocalyptic: I would be curious to see any definition considering 1 as prime, it would mean you no longer have the fundamental theorem of arithmetic
Adlai: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=23-05-2015#1144320 << in plain and simple asslish, when you include the multiplicative identity as a prime, you no longer have unique prime factorizations, because you can raise the identity to any power and get the same product ☝︎
Apocalyptic: I would be curious to see any definition considering 1 as prime, it would mean you no longer have the fundamental theorem of arithmetic ☟︎
mircea_popescu: crowded as all shit and stupid.
mircea_popescu: seems the sort of meta-prograsmming task for which lisp was invented anyway. keep your code as a s-expr of the code you deliver. ☟︎
mircea_popescu: then as a licensee you DONT know what you need to transform to wipe the watermark, so you have to transform... "everything". which results in a turd, which as he says, who the fuck will want that.
mircea_popescu: and then just make a hash and interpret it as bitflips over that list
ben_vulpes: it verges on obfuscation, and at that point one may as well deliver a binary for all the "fits in head"ness it'll have.
mircea_popescu: (comments count as spaces)
mircea_popescu: cripplefight/bitchfest as to what "should be" ensues.
mircea_popescu: cazalla so tl;dr : ver scammed okcoin into paying for a domain name, which is as we all know NEVER worth any money. okcoin got out of original depry phase after 3 months through eithry smarting up or running out of cash.
mats: with some independent verification it looks like everything up to .19 is broken as released
trinque: "The Loper OS Project aims to remake computing. I am aware that others have tried and failed. Laughing? The job is not nearly as difficult as it sounds." << woah, there was an optimistic alf
ben_vulpes: jurov: i signed the patches as i downloaded them with my mail client.
ben_vulpes: "you may use this yourself, diddle its internals as you see fit, but you may not distribute it to others"
assbot: Logged on 22-05-2015 15:29:17; asciilifeform: l0l! that thing actually existed as something other than spam ads ?!
assbot: Logged on 22-05-2015 15:23:45; Apocalyptic: quite amusing that 281479271743489 has 65537 as one of its 3 prime factors, those cosmic rays have a sense of humour
mircea_popescu: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=22-05-2015#1143704 << the problem with multiplication in these ethereal numeric bodies is that it has about as many gotchas as memory allocation in c. and most of them plenty unintuitive. ☝︎
mircea_popescu: it's not only that it wears off quickly, it wears off as a function of... HOW MUCH IT DETECTED
trinque: yup, I thought at first it was "long page", but newp, works fine on long pages long as there aren't comments
mircea_popescu: obviously i read dperini as derperini
trinque: mircea_popescu: I take that as "we'll figure out the business model later" when I hear it
Kalki: Wait - it's not the same as the fee for mpex is it?
Kalki: Pretty newb around these parts but find it quite refreshing as I have been swimming in the shallow btc waters looking for honesty
asciilifeform: you'd have to use intervals between spikes as the entropy
ben_vulpes: "use libtool" << so as to speak "just type libtool at the prompt"
asciilifeform: l0l! that thing actually existed as something other than spam ads ?! ☟︎
asciilifeform: i still regard it as not entirely unlikely that the attack is a pure 'dos'
Apocalyptic: quite amusing that 281479271743489 has 65537 as one of its 3 prime factors, those cosmic rays have a sense of humour ☟︎
Apocalyptic: asciilifeform, by the way do you have any explanation as to why pgpdump skips the KeyID field on invalid subkeys ?
asciilifeform: Apocalyptic: care to comment on the 'is transformation same as picking random N for modulus' thing ?
Apocalyptic: "Similarly, the modulus of Peter Anvin's key is also divisible by 19 and 7704959, in addition to 3, 7 and 11 as" // I have found these two additional primes as well, and only those 2
asciilifeform: it wears out in the same way as a fluorescent light bulb does
decimation: part of the problem is as ascii has identified - you really want every part to be inspectible by the end user
Naphex: davout: as far as I know its written in c# and runs on wind0s
Naphex: so.. bitfinex hacked. just as they switched to AlphaPoint and Microsoft servers
BingoBoingo: As posessor of a GPG signature in L2 of Assbot's web of trust...I challenge anyone in my L3 trust to contest my in face punching for the real world welterweight championship of face punching
BingoBoingo: Fat people don't go as high
mircea_popescu: as discussed in my example.
gabriel_laddel: To those who would say "Oh you can't possibly sell a 3D CLIM, no one needs that" I will note that we *know* the Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory (Weapons and Complex Integration) built VisIt on top of OpenGL. They accept it as a given. USG doesn't want to win wars, but I'm willing to bet that someone on Earth does. One easy way to free up eng
gabriel_laddel: mircea_popescu: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=21-05-2015#1142114 << apparently he doesn't think so, which is strange. i do. << ftr, I see this as progress. Knowing macrofab exists and having a working relationship is useful. ☝︎
mircea_popescu: as very few here actually have either.
BingoBoingo: Hasimir: As much as I drink, not sure my piss would freeze at zero
trinque: trying to encode some bits as latin1, and there are characters in this outside that set
asciilifeform: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=22-05-2015#1143160 << l0l, not even sure what counts as the most recent ☝︎
Hasimir: decimation, I prefer to view it as a new (event) horizon
decimation: they are trying the same argument as bernstein
mircea_popescu: <Hasimir> ah, but I'm not against guns, just against them being the prime motivator for whatever << not the point. earlier when guns were being discussed you said " I've never seen any religion avoid going to a bad place", which yes is a valid point. but when it comes to something you actually know/care about, suddenly it';s not nearly as appealing, as good a point as it may be.
decimation: Hasimir: yes and it was successful as I recall
decimation: The WA-agreed definition for ?intrusion software? is proposed to be added to § 772.1 of the EAR. The definition also includes a Note that describes some items not included as ?intrusion software,?e.g., hypervisors, debuggers or Software Reverse Engineering (SRE).
mircea_popescu: that's one theory (published as such in an article iirc). another theory hanbot came up with earlier in log, and i've been thinking about.
asciilifeform: might as well weld little flowers to it
Hasimir: as I well know ...
Hasimir: mind you, I live in a place where it's illegal to carry something as relatively tame as pepper spray
mircea_popescu: Hasimir the difference between handout and bribery appears as you switch context.
Hasimir: viewing foreign aid as a handout (instead of the bribery it is)
cazalla: mircea_popescu, seen enough of it to know the place serves as a magnet for sjw types
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: the original suggestion, as i read it, was bug in -sks-
Hasimir: cazalla, I do tend to describe that thing as my crypto problem child ... but, probably worth it
mircea_popescu: as it should. cool.
mircea_popescu: as opposed to what, bfv or w/e ?
mircea_popescu: but the density of german ppls on that list is, as janna observed, significant enough to raise an eyebrow.
mircea_popescu: but on its face, the notion that someone would even be vaguely relevant for crypto and NOT be in the wot at all is so ridiculous as to defy the mind.
mircea_popescu: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=21-05-2015#1142266 << he is not attacking them "for doing so". he, and i, and ~the rest of the world~ is pointing and laughing at them for their hallucinogenic subjective positioning where they seem to regard themselves as some sort of authority to whjich things are proven. ☝︎
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: And I object to calling the case It's proper title because as and Illinois people I reject consensus on the people of Illinois vs. me title
asciilifeform: ianal, but in usa, a machine below ~100kg is not considered an 'aircraft' and is not required to have items such as radio, lights, or a licensed flyer
decimation: lul > " one count of "operating as an airman without an airman's certificate"" < so if he did not practice and prepare for his flight, and rampantly disregarded safety, would he not have 'operated as an airman'
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: Apocalyptic started out by suggesting - correctly - that having, e.g., 3 - as factor - was not proof of weakness by itself, because one could take mircea_popescu's modulus, multiply by 3
mircea_popescu: first 1000 primes as a factor." <<< aha. somebody's not really done their reading
mircea_popescu: so now a contrived icann policy that, no doubt atr some point in the retarded comissions, had "it'll prevent private webservers" as a +
mircea_popescu: see, the way this works is, if the ray is going across the wire, then nothing happens. but if the ray goes through the wire, as it can happen rarely (random rotational positioning), then it hits every 4th bit.
mircea_popescu: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=21-05-2015#1142132 << they "could have" so they "might as well have had!!1". the all-consuming four points of the book are at work in the belly of hte beast itself, disgesting its own limbs. ☝︎
BingoBoingo: The problem of how many of the marketed moving parts work as advertised and only as advertised.
mircea_popescu: reason giving as little quarter as possible is the correct policy."
mircea_popescu: he quotes "Note that it is not said nor implied here that there's any sort of theoretical vulnerability related to using 65537 as an exponent for RSA.". the full quote is "Note that it is not said nor implied here that there's any sort of theoretical vulnerability related to using 65537 as an exponent for RSA. The point is that you don't know what exact implementation flaws the NSA is or may be relying on, and for this
Hasimir: all it would take would be the same as allowing it to hash any pgp message
Hasimir: as in charset encoding errors
Hasimir: as far as I'm aware he's still working for NSA
ascii_field: but to classify him as a genuine person may turn out to be dangerous for one's health (assuming that one is not asset himself)
Hasimir: though logic and healthy skepticism requires questioning myself just as much, if not more so, than anyone else ...
Hasimir: such as in the case of the key dignork and I discussed earlier
ascii_field: and that the burden of proof somehow lies on the reasonable, literate folks who can see, plain as daylight, that this is as likely as a bullet spontaneously materializing inside lincoln
ascii_field: or perhaps he does not claim this, but passes off as plausible
ascii_field: just as i predicted
ascii_field: as, other meaning here
Hasimir: anyway, things like the directory key and the hush key are about the same as keybase.io
Hasimir: the sole purpose of that directory key is to provide minimal (stress minimal) proof that the entity controlling an email address approves the key as theirs, no more
trinque: the felonies are simply... we are defining your remote controlled toy as an aircraft
trinque: http://www.cnn.com/2015/05/20/politics/gyrocopter-pilot-indicted-on-six-counts/ << two felony counts -- one count of "operating as an airman without an airman's certificate" and another count of "violating registration requirements involving aircraft,"
trinque: considering it as solely an engineering endeavor, you're probably right
trinque: assbot: near as I can tell this masamune is going to make gabriel_laddel rich because it "has" value
trinque: these types if they can be managed at all have to be under the command of someone who doesn't give a shit about software as art
trinque: its as if someone's laying bricks one by one, and the guy with the vision for the road says "NO, YOU MUST LAY THEM ALL AT ONCE!"
trinque: gabriel_laddel | story time: I ran into loper-os after a stint programming clojure as a day job. I ended up getting evicted for playing around with CL instead of paying rent. << don't ever do this; if you can't make money doing it, you're not the guy to do it.
mircea_popescu: his heading. Some of the incidents in it are flatly incredible, others have been rearranged and romanticised, and not merely the humiliation but the persistent ORDINARINESS of everyday life has been cut out. Dali is even by his own diagnosis narcissistic, and his autobiography is simply a strip-tease act conducted in pink limelight. But as a record of fantasy, of the perversion of instinct that has been made possible b
mircea_popescu: <asciilifeform> as far as i can tell, he's just another larcenous piece of shit << well, he's one of the first crop of derpy bureaucrats who thought they;'re gonna leverage the fiat state into a position of bitcoin power in a hostile manner.
asciilifeform: chetty: gestapo could have entered a picture of mickey mouse as a defense. and will win
