asciilifeform: http://btcbase.org/log/2019-06-06#1917468 << d00d has whole week+ to read the fuckign log ☝︎☟︎

asciilifeform: http://btcbase.org/log/2019-06-06#1917460 << sorta why i see the asic thing as a serious failure. as i understand, the centralization of supply is extreme, and gettin' worse ☝︎

asciilifeform: http://btcbase.org/log/2019-06-06#1917455 << this almost always happens. ☝︎

asciilifeform: while on subj : http://p.bvulpes.com/pastes/Mg63b/?raw=true << pieces of latest (not yet complete) experiment. when fed to a 32768bit peh run, produces the 32768-bit primorial (i.e. shows that the 17 2048bit cuts actually multiply to it ) ☟︎

asciilifeform: http://btcbase.org/log/2019-06-06#1917441 << this is moar or less asciilifeform's exact position. mircea_popescu i rec. to glance at ch18, it has good picture of this (i.e. reader is not offered 'use this tape', is offered 'here's how to bake a primegen' ; instead of 'here's magic constant', given 'here's how it is made' etc ) ☝︎

asciilifeform: ( obv. this method is NOT fastest means to compute product of 1st n primes; it is not exactly secret what the first coupla mil primes are, and one could compute product in <1s , if taking what they are on faith. but illustrated method does not rely on 'magic #s' ) ☟︎

asciilifeform: http://p.bvulpes.com/pastes/rBk45/?raw=true << what you get, for the curious.

asciilifeform: http://btcbase.org/log/2019-06-05#1917291 << loox like he plugged his bot in with his regged key from before ☝︎

asciilifeform: http://www.scs.ryerson.ca/~ikokkari/ << uni site. but devil knows when last updated.

asciilifeform: http://btcbase.org/log/2014-11-16#925211 << 1st time he was gagged. iirc actually sued & won ☝︎

asciilifeform: 'if I wanted to influence your RNG I would attack it at the von neumann fair toss algorithm, by ensuring that I have control over pairs of outputs somehow.' << didjaknow!111

asciilifeform: http://www.loper-os.org/pub/grater.jpg << oblig, re subj

asciilifeform: * sageprobes has quit (Quit: Page closed) << apparently ^him

asciilifeform: http://loper-os.org/pub/heathen-mips.tar.gz << for thread-completeness. (most of the ball is a sample linux disk, the sores itself is ~50kB) ☟︎

asciilifeform: http://btcbase.org/log/2019-06-04#1917019 << i'ma describe, for the l0gz, the hypothetical. suppose mips emu in asm ( the heathen item in fact compiles to a 30kB elf , not esp. complex, but would want clean rewrite really ). this'd be proggy that takes disk image and it tx/rx raw frames to/from nic, so can have own ip etc. then 1 large amd box can host coupla 100 instances of mips linux from known image. <1s teardown/bringup. ☝︎☟︎

asciilifeform: http://btcbase.org/log/2019-06-04#1917003 << this is interesting and not quite what i expected , from http://btcbase.org/log/2019-06-01#1916641 ☝︎☝︎

asciilifeform: http://btcbase.org/log/2019-06-04#1917014 << asciilifeform's orcistan transport service lives to serve ! mircea_popescu do you happen to have these machines already ? theoretically could stop in cr an' pick up etc ☝︎

asciilifeform: http://btcbase.org/log/2019-06-04#1917011 << iirc the logic was discussed, when subscriber leases machine, piz is sworn to keep him en-machined at all times ( by keeping on hand any and all necessary spares ) ☝︎
