a111: Logged on 2017-10-10 15:39 mircea_popescu: so in other lulz, i'm buying some 10k+ karma reddit accounts ; who wants some for future republican lulz ? shinohai ? BingoBoingo ?
asciilifeform: http://btcbase.org/log/2017-10-10#1723633 << i already, um, got one of those. what's it good for, mircea_popescu ? ☝︎
mircea_popescu: i thought just usual "Branding" idiocy at the time. but a novel theory just presented itself.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform was balticservers back when i got dulap originally.
asciilifeform: dafuq am i to do with that box nao
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform employed i can see ; doing business ? people are allowed to hire whores.
trinque: asciilifeform: ate it, just said nothing; I'll look at why when I get a sec.

mod6: http://wotpaste.cascadianhacker.com/pastes/M8K3v/?raw=true << I'll add this to the list.
BingoBoingo: From the mines https://i.redditmedia.com/OErCGxBHNpxGR-pSLf7UnPTrTuFOLMSLwc_9-tJnaNA.jpg?w=620&s=c800920ec2cf3364ea5eebe70365b861
hanbot: mircea_popescu it makes a neat catalogue for picking something to read. like every other article, i suppose, but in a different format. ;)
mod6: i liked, ya
phf: yeah, i think that c version predates bernstein
asciilifeform: phf: i dun think i ever posted the modern ( bernsteinian ) one.
phf: asciilifeform: i think i have a C version of worker somewhere, that you posted when you were having issues with sqlite
phf: in completely unrelated lulz i found v0.01 of btcbase http://p.bvulpes.com/pastes/Drqc8/?raw=true
phf: i suppose the article indirectly answers, presents the kind of mindset
asciilifeform: phf: it was imho nifty. but ditching the 'own hardware, x86 can fuck itself' thing was , i suspect, the fatal mistake
a111: Logged on 2017-10-09 15:11 mircea_popescu: phf it's good that wired uses https to protect its readers. for instance it protected me from reading or archiving it, which i estimate to be a value add.
phf: http://btcbase.org/log/2017-10-09#1723353 << hur, well, i appreciated Beos at the time, it is sad to see now the kind of jokers worked on it then `everything-is-made-of-shit ☝︎
asciilifeform: the supposition that ideally-correct ffa could possibly run slower than the current one (supposing these 2 differ) i see as quite fantastic.
asciilifeform: i wouldn't disagree if thread were re ~using~. but re calculating speed ?!
asciilifeform: i dun get why mircea_popescu equates the present situation with a complete lack of the item
mircea_popescu: quantifying "a single aspect" of "how stewardess would look in airplane i've not yet bought" is no better than quantifying any other / all of them.
asciilifeform: trinque: i won't recommend to take current ffa and put in battlefield . but proposed to calculate a bandwidth assuming current degree of ughslow
asciilifeform: i'd concur with mircea_popescu that one ought not connect ffa to, e.g., icbm, until it comes with proofs for all of the components, etc. -- but we do have a working modexp, from which can extrapolate pessimal speed ( it will get faster, but let's assume for said calculation that it will not )
asciilifeform: btw let's do the phone thing, briefly. a 4096b rsa modexp can carry 4096b , i.e. 512byte, of payload sans padding. let's conservatively suppose that padding ( and hash auth, or whatever, and/or lubyzation, etc ) costs half of the payload room. so you get 256 byte per 4096b modexp;
asciilifeform: ( i.e. for the nodes of the network to know at all times of at least 1 member among them who has external ip )
mircea_popescu: i expect they use it for routing. nfi.
mircea_popescu: i wouldn't mind the dood who hacked off rsa from koch pgp and made a server that just passed encrypted comms. that's it.
asciilifeform: i too would like to meet the d00d who , e.g., wrote nonleaking realtime rsa , made a modem around it, made own FG, etc
asciilifeform: in so far as i can tell, none of these items have anything to do with even kochian pgp
mircea_popescu: phuctor got seized and so what ? nobody messaged me to ask if i'm a doctor.
mircea_popescu: i don't comprehend what the "seizing of server" did for a pgp phone service.
mircea_popescu: i remember very clearly who i am, and for very good reasons can't recall that schmuck whatever his name was.
asciilifeform: it is exactly what i found when i cut open prb5.3; and gpg; etc
mircea_popescu: kinda why i took the trouble. it is exactly the picture afaik.
mircea_popescu: meanwhile why the fuck would i build on the insanity of uncontrolled basis.
mircea_popescu: the domain in question is "game libs which i can control"
asciilifeform: the derp who 'i am an orc and tinker because what else' and 'i am a phd and tinker because i am god and bow to me, peons' converge to very similar result, sorta like the new world and old world vulture are unrelated birds but look quite alike and have same diet and habits
a111: Logged on 2016-01-21 13:29 asciilifeform: 'if i make it what i think is the right size, it crashes!111'
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform i just can't grasp wtf is going on in the rakim skulls.
mircea_popescu: i am vaguely amazed they don't have a "special" thread to handle what x does anyway, ie kbd buffering./
asciilifeform: like trb! ( but i'ma not repeat, because at this point everybody knows )
mircea_popescu: happens to me to this day. drives teh girls up the wall in angry shame, but i dun hold it against them.
a111: Logged on 2017-10-09 07:02 mircea_popescu: earlier today i heard from soem guy complaining about "how his job sucks", because he got moved to a new projkect for 3rd time past month, and it's such a waste because now he has to reload whatever.
spyked: mircea_popescu, re comment, had no idea this happened. I'll admit I haven't followed him (digested a few, such as the "ma fut in ea de ploaie" piece), so will review.
mircea_popescu: phf it's good that wired uses https to protect its readers. for instance it protected me from reading or archiving it, which i estimate to be a value add. ☟︎
spyked: meanwhile, lulz: http://teleschpenker.com/teleschpenker/contact/ diff(displayed addr, linked addr) is one letter (I wonder if this was intentional)
spyked: mircea_popescu, will drop him a line when I have some text to show him (will ofcourse ask for your gracious feedback first)
mircea_popescu: spyked silviu gherman could do it, if anyone ever told him to. and by told i mean a certain thing, which brings us right back to "cow's milk will be wasted without management with enough sense to milk it"
a111: Logged on 2017-10-09 02:03 mircea_popescu: i confess i tried to introduce `tickmarks into my process as such, but it ends up ~looking~ fucking retarded. i'm not even know if it just looks that way but isn't, or actually is. huge inertia against it though.
a111: Logged on 2017-10-09 02:14 asciilifeform: but i'd rather see a cleaner method where it happens via the usual phf backarrow
phf: http://btcbase.org/log/2017-10-09#1723141 << fwiw arrows were emergent, from an already well established at the time convention. but i agree with http://btcbase.org/log/2017-10-09#1723119 ☝︎☝︎
a111: Logged on 2017-07-07 23:52 phf: mondo 2000, the proto valley crowd, i think we had the thread. basically, jwz.
phf: http://btcbase.org/log/2017-07-07#1680305 << https://www.wired.com/1996/05/gassee/ a '96 wired article about bebox (but more so about Be head, Gassée), the article is framed by a gratuitous road trip from palo alto to black rock desert (i.e. burning man site) hot springs ☝︎
a111: Logged on 2017-10-09 05:01 mircea_popescu: "when my wife saw how many bottles of wine i bought for new year's, she bid me take them to the bathroom and dump them down the drain. i did as she said, because the wife is that person one shares with all life's happiness and unhappines. and sadness. and misfortune. and catastrophe. and all other disasters that wouldn't have happened had one not married."
a111: Logged on 2017-10-09 04:42 mircea_popescu: spyked https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VWJAZg4dAlo had me in stitches over some new year's, but i suspect entirely untranslatable.
mircea_popescu: i've no idea man, i'm just thinking outloud.
mircea_popescu: as opposed to "i suck so much, they keep bumping me to various projects"
mircea_popescu: and i was thinking "they moved YOU. why are you thinking in terms of the company/job/whatever ?"
mircea_popescu: earlier today i heard from soem guy complaining about "how his job sucks", because he got moved to a new projkect for 3rd time past month, and it's such a waste because now he has to reload whatever. ☟︎
ben_vulpes: i have no firsthand idea, but i got the impression the party was for an entire week and nobody was going to be interested in hearing from auslanders for the duration.
mircea_popescu: i thought that was last week
mircea_popescu: "when my wife saw how many bottles of wine i bought for new year's, she bid me take them to the bathroom and dump them down the drain. i did as she said, because the wife is that person one shares with all life's happiness and unhappines. and sadness. and misfortune. and catastrophe. and all other disasters that wouldn't have happened had one not married." ☟︎
asciilifeform: whenever i see 'pontiac' auto, i think of this .txt, having literally NO other context for it
BingoBoingo: And yet I re-read
mircea_popescu: spyked https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VWJAZg4dAlo had me in stitches over some new year's, but i suspect entirely untranslatable. ☟︎
mircea_popescu: in which case, i suspect federation rules requiring all black players wear a yellow star and apologize for being there before every game have even odds next year.
mircea_popescu: world went to shit, i started leaving more often than staying through sometime in i dunno, 2006 ?
BingoBoingo: And from the sports desk, Mike Pence: "I left today's Colts game because @POTUS and I will not dignify any event that disrespects our soldiers, our Flag, or our National Anthem."
mircea_popescu: "brother... i left her at the bridge. why are you still carrying her ?"
mircea_popescu: "SGML is a good idea when the markup overhead is less than 2%." << holy shit check him out. that's... a lot narrower than i'd have guessed.
mircea_popescu: ah ok. i missed.
asciilifeform: i linked to it iirc
asciilifeform: but otoh i have nfi what cn limba de lemn looks like.
mircea_popescu: i suspect chinese has a helluva lot of these.
mircea_popescu: because if i don't have the liberty to overload an url i can find no incentive to ever tickmark.
asciilifeform: i also favour postfixation for this
mircea_popescu: reason i prefer the `tag:url format to the `tag url format is that space is too syntactically meaningful.
asciilifeform: i'll demonstrate:
mircea_popescu: ager appealing just as i find an <a href=http://trilema.com/2017/little-miss-pretty/#selection-247.0-251.710>oversubmissive</a> overinnocent lawyer appealing."
mircea_popescu: i imagine the sane way to represent "outlyers are interesting. i find an `overcompetent:http://trilema.com/2013/whore-strat/ teenager appealing just as i find an `oversubmissive:http://trilema.com/2017/little-miss-pretty/#selection-247.0-251.710 `overinnocent lawyer appealing." in html is via the usual anchor mechanism, as "outlyers are interesting. i find an <a href=http://trilema.com/2013/whore-strat/>overcompetent</a> teen
asciilifeform: but i'd rather see a cleaner method where it happens via the usual phf backarrow ☟︎
mircea_popescu: somehow he manages to need much much less hammer to hammer in a point, for which i confess to admiring the man.
mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2017-10-08#1723104 << ahahah! i really enjoy these apeloyee-alf discussions, for the record. ☝︎
mircea_popescu: however, as a chat anchoring convention i could actually get myself to do it, as that's 99% of what i wish i could do and currently can't, frustrates me once a week with some regularity.
mircea_popescu: i confess i tried to introduce `tickmarks into my process as such, but it ends up ~looking~ fucking retarded. i'm not even know if it just looks that way but isn't, or actually is. huge inertia against it though. ☟︎
a111: Logged on 2017-10-02 19:52 mircea_popescu: so what is the idea here, if i wish to review the state of this, other than asking you, i could also what ? !#s ffa ?
mircea_popescu: outlyers are interesting. i find an `overcompetent:http://trilema.com/2013/whore-strat/ teenager appealing just as i find an `oversubmissive:http://trilema.com/2017/little-miss-pretty/#selection-247.0-251.710 `overinnocent lawyer appealing.
asciilifeform: though i suspect that this top-only multer oughta recurse...
asciilifeform: if it worked, i'd use it in W_Mul -- but it does NOT
a111: Logged on 2017-10-08 20:57 mircea_popescu: i expect you just get one mult for the largest size and reuse it indefinitely, nfi what he's on about with the 2n luts for every sum
mircea_popescu: from what i hear they've a new model now.
hanbot: nor should you ever substitute "May I help you?" with "ce pula mea vrei"? << ahahaha
mircea_popescu: i expect you just get one mult for the largest size and reuse it indefinitely, nfi what he's on about with the 2n luts for every sum ☟︎
