Hasimir: I ported
the python bindings for gpgme
to py3
Hasimir: and
this key crap better not invalidate my pyme work
Hasimir: hmm, oh ratings ... I
tend not
to rate bots, not even mine
assbot: Logged on 20-05-2015 00:42:58; decimation: so can someone explain why
the nyse would have a bitcoin index without any actual bitcoin-backed securities for
trade?
danielpbarron: !up Hasimir welcome
to
the biggest* best** irc channel!
Naphex: mircea_popescu: a good attacker will do discovery, and map everything ahead of
time. while
there are some pluses into deviating from
the
toolset.
they mostly come from building your own. which is going
to end up better fitted for
the
task
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform do you remember where
the fuck is
that discussion about how a good hardening approach is
to deviate from
the
toolset
the attacker might reasonably expect
to find is ?
☟︎ mod6: maybe its
this is_prime function
mats: looking forward
to pounding
trustfund hotties on drugs
mats: going
to a music festival
this weekend
then san diego
mod6: ahh, i see, you gotta pick
the bases for a randomly.
mod6: oh it might actually do
this somewhere anyway...
there are some references in
the docs... although i haven't found it in
the code yet.
mod6: by
the end of
the night i was digging into prime selection. gnupg does fast fermat checks in several places, but im starting
to wonder if it wouldn't also be benificial
to just check against a list of "Carmichael numbers"
mod6: <+mircea_popescu> maybe i wanna use e = 2686977, whose business is it. << i was looking at
this yesterday
too, had
the same impression. mpi_set_ui( e, 65537);
fluffypony: mircea_popescu: nah, some interesting guys but
they're all just
trying
to do gambling stuff in Romania and elsewhere
assbot: Logged on 20-05-2015 00:29:41; mod6:
take a look at
this:
http://dpaste.com/0SQPBKC.txt Is
there any reason when allocating
the space for p & q
to do Eulers
totient
they would initialize
the space with 'p' and 'p', instead of 'p' & 'q'?
☟︎ mircea_popescu:

this, am I
the only one nonplussed by all
this "we use <<best practices>> fixed exponent" bs ? it's an unavoidalbe magic number , okay, but it's
tyhe sort
that should eminently be a knob for
the user. a proper gpg would have e user-settable at
the key generation phase (with 65536+1 as a default, sure)
☝︎☟︎ davout: fluffypony:
the electric plugs are
there only for
the show on regular french
trains
davout: fluffypony: on IRC? nice! still up for
the monero meeting
tomorrow?
davout: Helvetik: if you really don't speak
that much english mebbe join #bitcoin-fr, will be less painful for you :-)
Helvetik: Sorry, I juste speak a little english. I'm here for
to
talk with davout
assbot: Logged on 19-05-2015 23:33:00; asciilifeform: (this could underplay
the effect of 'bastards' however)
assbot: Logged on 19-05-2015 22:50:05; jurov: if someone uses
temporary voice
to resubmit existing deed 1000
times, deedbot has nothing
to say about it?

trinque: I'll negrate people who abuse it
mircea_popescu: (for
the record :
the life of a smerd, like
that of a kholop, was worth 5 grivna.
that's about enough metal
to make a decent shovel - roughly speaking
the smartphone of
the
time)
assbot: Logged on 25-03-2014 20:41:18; asciilifeform: ght run as follows:
Today we've got a friendship evening with shit-eaters', or
Today we're having some shit-eaters
to dinner. Prepare a suitable menu'.'
assbot: Logged on 25-03-2014 20:41:17; asciilifeform: Officially, all Soviet representatives regard
these parasites with
touching feelings of friendship, but privately
they call
them 'shit-eaters' ('govnoed'). It is difficult
to say where
this expression originated, but it is
truly
the only name
they deserve.
The use of
this word has become so firmly entrenched in Soviet embassies
that it is impossible
to imagine any other name for
these people. A conver
mircea_popescu: one only needs
to look at
the czech commies post ru invasion
to understand exactly how abject people actually are.
mircea_popescu: instead of parading
them naked
through
the streets with a "i was a fucktard and am now sorry"
thing around
their neck,
they let
them sit around for
twenty years coming up with reasons as
to how
their idiocy "wasn't really all
that bad".
☟︎ mircea_popescu: i have no fucking idea what west germany was
thinking when it allowed
the scumbags
to join civilisation without first hanging every "intellectual" of
the eastern school.
mircea_popescu: for as long as
the free herring still lasts,
they can run around derping about how
they meditatively comprehensified
the deep secrets of
the universe.
☟︎ mircea_popescu: c) god comes back in
the shape of Kennedy and
the Fulda gap. herring is being airlifted into berlin
mircea_popescu: b) god hath moved on, so now five centuries of hard labour and being basically as dirt-poor and pan
troglodytus as
the russian mujik.
mircea_popescu: a) god hath decided
to give free herring out in
the scania sounds. consequently, swedes now have a kingdom
assbot: Logged on 19-05-2015 19:21:04; decimation: mircea seems
to credit
the german geography for why 'nordic freedom' 'seems
to work'. but I suggest it is
the people
themselves - having been beaten by
the romans for centuries, and
then forced by
the church
to mate outside
their immediate family,
they developed a concept of 'kinship' beyond L2 cousins
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform
they readily admit "we
took register piece and
translated"
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform dude
that zdnet article was probably
the most idiotic
thing i read
today.
assbot: Logged on 19-05-2015 18:42:29; jurov: both sides of
that discussion made me cringe
davout: so wrt
the schneier book i see 'second edition', and '20th anniversary edition'
mircea_popescu: iguess someone really should write a reasonable, 500 page, college degree (any field, proper) required
to read crypto overview
davout: gonna get
the schneier one
to get started
mircea_popescu: i wouldn't be
too worried about it, it's probably on everyone's im
mircea_popescu: cat
trilema-20may2015.txt | grep -c "more-factored-rsa-keys-and-assorted-other-considerations"
mircea_popescu: it's
the equivalent of a
tractor
that just plowed
through virgin land. all
those delicious worms!
mircea_popescu: anyway, enough stuff in phuctor's wake
to keep dozens of crypto researchers busy for monthys if not years.
assbot: Logged on 17-05-2015 19:23:18; davout: HN now displays "Why Japanese
Toilets Are Failing in America (2013)" higher
than
this
mircea_popescu: davout apparently "it’s impossible
to downvote anything on Hacker News". i guess story just isn't interesting.
mod6: <+mircea_popescu> any idea what caused
the oom ? if anything identifiable at all. << nothing specific yet. although
the charts are interesting. Process Switches hit 4k before going
to zero.
davout: mircea_popescu: on osx you can either build GPG, or use
this macgpg stuff, i use
the former, so can't really help here
davout: aaand
the HN story is at... wait for it... 3 points
mircea_popescu: THATs what needs
to be
tested. pgpwin and what else was
there ?
mod6: <+asciilifeform> mod6: and am i correct in my reading
that
thermonuke ver. never died ? << correct.
