Mocky: mircea_popescu,
there's a "gulf blockchain foundation" meet up in
three days I'm going
to.
two speaks giving
talks
then mingle
time: "Governance: DAOs and
traditional governance" and "Proof of scam: Drawing
the line between
the good and
the bad"
BingoBoingo: Actual Security Update: November 26th
through December 3rd,
there will likely be about 400 USG
tending
to assorted support aircraft in Carrasco for
the G20 summit across
the river in Buenos Aires.
mod6: Hello, young log reader. Listen
to your mom, she knows what she's
talking about.
mircea_popescu: diana_coman you should see nicole keks. has a notebook with
things
to ask me "when it's a good
time".
☟︎ diana_coman: in other lol: I guess I can claim
that I got here
the youngest log reader -
the child reads a
tid-bit of it ~every
time he comes by for anything, even
though he struggles on some words ("etc?"); makes for a very good example: yes, you CAN read but you still have a pile of stuff
to figure out before it makes any sense
a111: Logged on 2018-11-02 13:42 diana_coman: I must say
that I can't even find it funny anymore: I even received here a flyer with something ~"Oxford women in computer science: Oxford's next Bitcoin Blockchain" and I found it... inane, nothing else
a111: Logged on 2017-12-29 00:42 mircea_popescu: o shit
there it is, navrozov moment!
diana_coman: asciilifeform, re proof at first pass it looks sound
to me; my only current niggle with it (to be addressed at 2nd pass) is if
there are any bits of
the key interchangeable perhaps (though it doesn't seem likely, I can't yet
tell for sure)
mircea_popescu: and if you deny it,
the response comes ~as if~ you had denied everything-about-the-idiot, because,
to
them, you literally have. if wordmagic dun exist, if her words have exactly 0 power
to anything, if she could just as well cup her palms, word in her left and piss in her right,
then...
then...
then WHAT WAS IT ALL FOR ?!?!?
mircea_popescu: incidentally,
to continue
the above :
the whole "no means no" wank is cheap proxy for "i am woman, and for years I have focused and prepared for words
to do
things, and I will not be derailed. I will not be embarrassed, and I will not be denied! So
tomorrow, words will do
things, come hell or high fucking water!"
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform if i were a prankster i'd ring
the bell
to ask how his wife's doing and when did she pass.
mircea_popescu: because she specifically wants both ends of
the dilemma. she WANTS
to be indistinct, and she WANTS
to be distinguished in spite of it.
mircea_popescu: this,
the definitive femwank, indistinct-but-distinguishable. hence "romantic" (romanticism is in all
times and places
the shorthand name for
the mainstream wank) notions of identification-past-identity, and "true love" and all
that.
mircea_popescu: who
the everloving fuck reads "profiles" ? same people who exec user strings i suppose ?
mircea_popescu: womenz and
their insane if hilarious and apparently ubiquitous belyf in wordmagic.
mircea_popescu: meanwhile at
the other lulzfarm, "LordMPofTMSR Not even kidding. SrirachaSkittles Drop whatever what is? Do you just ignore peoples profiles? LordMPofTMSR Yup."
mircea_popescu: diana_coman i just meant what he says stands ; i'm not married
to
the directive.
mircea_popescu: i like how
these articles of yours end up in
the pulp fiction
tradition quentin
tarantino so much loved. "the end ... (for now...)" etc.
mod6: werd.
totally agree for
the search for
the
truth.
a111: Logged on 2018-10-29 05:07 asciilifeform: relatedly, asciilifeform
tried
to bake a proof
that
the lamehash keyinflater function of serpent is one-to-one ( i.e. actually carries 256bit of
the key register's entropy into
the 528 bytes of whiteolade ) and not only didnt , but realized
that afaik no such proof exists for any 'troo' hash also ( incl keccak.. )
a111: Logged on 2018-11-01 18:09 mircea_popescu: it does ~seem~
to be weaker
than my own intel indicates, but fuck
that spot.
BingoBoingo: And people say math can't be any fun for
the spectators
diana_coman: it is at any rate a very nice example
to follow re investigating something of
this sort;
thank you asciilifeform !
diana_coman: o.O so it's actually fine re key schedule after all? /me goes
to read
shinohai: What can I say, I've always enjoyed lulzing at shitcoiners, kinda miss doing it on Qntra even.
Though yes, it does seem inane and repetitive at
times.
diana_coman: I must say
that I can't even find it funny anymore: I even received here a flyer with something ~"Oxford women in computer science: Oxford's next Bitcoin Blockchain" and I found it... inane, nothing else
☟︎ shinohai: Thank God
trb is
the bleach used
to clean up at
the end of
the day.
shinohai: Well it hasn't yielded income equal
to other pursuits, I just find it amusing (from bouncing about alt-irc shitcoin groups)
that so many of
these guys really
think
they are competitor
to actual Bitcoin.
shinohai: Hi diana_coman nice
to see you! I'm back from summer of convalescence, not doing anything in particular yet
these days.
diana_coman: asciilifeform,
that's my current position, yes;
shinohai: Heya asciilifeform ... built
trb w/ your aggressive_pushgetblocks.vpatch so
tests/observations in progress
shinohai: Good mornng #trilema, how goes
today?
diana_coman: alternatively I suppose I could just declare own limited
types and work with
that but I still don't
think it's worth doing at
this point
diana_coman: if we aimed indeed for constant
time,
then sure, definitely worth
the change but
that's not
the case
a111: Logged on 2018-10-31 17:54 asciilifeform: implicit conditionals aint evil per se ,
tho ; i banned
them in ffa specifically as
they get in
the way of constanttimeism, is all
diana_coman:
http://btcbase.org/log/2018-10-31#1868075 ->
there being a few more points
there
though since "and" requires fixed and same sizes of
the
two operands while now
they are loosely "Integers" ; and sure, I can cast
them
to some fixed size
type but
then I make
the whole package depend on Interfaces
☝︎ mircea_popescu: because gee whiz, "i am not prepared
to answer
this question" is strictly speaking dementia, a seven year old is expected
to be ahead of
that, which is why
that's when
they start formal schooling.
mircea_popescu: and no,
they couldn't be "anything". i'm not asking fucking naively, "please supply a string for my exec()". i'm asking
to see whether
they're fucking demented or not.
mircea_popescu: but who and what aren't
the same
thing,
to begin with.
Mocky: you meet someone new and don't know who
they are,
they could be anything
a111: Logged on 2018-11-01 17:25 mircea_popescu:
this notion of "be anyone" etc is entirely fabricated, out of
the venom of mother inca and
the overactive brains of idle smart boys. nobody agrees with it, nothing agrees with it in practice, it never is nor ever was nor ever could be found in nature... it's like you
thinking santa claus is real.
a111: Logged on 2018-11-02 03:57 mircea_popescu: (somehow
the femtards never seem
to figure
the fucking obvious, "agreeing
to be nice" can only possibly result in folger's friendship and no genuine anything
to be had anywhere.... god i fucking hate 'em.)
billymg: mircea_popescu: not at all, i was amused myself when i put myself in your shoes and read my messages as "how does
the what go into
the who now?"

☟︎ mircea_popescu: and isn't it great
that our code of conduct prevents me from actually
telling you how i feel about
the matter. /sarcasm
mircea_popescu: billymg don't
take it
the wrong way ; nothing wrong with not knowing
things. i don't know most of
them either.
billymg: phf:
ty and apologies for
the simple questions. definitely learned a few more
things about v
this evening
phf: vtools_genesis is a very reduced gnu diff, which has a place for hash, but doesn't know how
to produce one, until either sha or keccak is attached in later patches
billymg: mircea_popescu: happy i was able
to provide a bit of light entertainment
billymg: ok, phf, i pressed again at `vdiff_keccak.vpatch`, now i have
those files in my vtools directory
billymg: fwiw, i pressed at
the keccak.vpatch level
billymg: i ran `make` after pressing and got a `vdiff` binary, used
that one
phf: billymg: at
the
top of your vtools directory, is
there a file called "Makefile" and is
there are file called "vdiff.gpr"?
phf: i suspect you only have
the first patch applied, which comes with a makefile, and which will indeed produce a vdiff
that doesn't know how
to hash
billymg: ahh,
that would be it
then. i don't seem
to have ada, etc. installed
billymg: i'm very new
to all of
this, how do i check
the version of gnat?
a111: Logged on 2018-11-02 01:37 billymg: however, it's not including
the file hashes in
the diff

☟︎ billymg: hi all, sorry i've been away for a bit. last weekend ended up being a social one and
tonight's
the first chance i've had
to poke around with vtools
