mircea_popescu: and meanwhile in #eulora lulz : <kisspunch> i don't know what the shit any of this is <mircea_popescu> yeah, there's A LOT you don't know. <kisspunch> mircea_popescu: fuck you and your ecosystem
mircea_popescu: kanzure do not scale the printing head ; scale the printed matter.
mircea_popescu: you could in principle do 1m/s which could be worth 10k or so per line at 10k or so lines per meter ie 100mn each second.
mircea_popescu: think of a long sheet of substrate, with prepper and as many prinbter machines as passes needed downstream.
mircea_popescu: kanzure the solution is above, over time. no cleaning. just roll the sheet .
mircea_popescu: ideally you get something denser than trad printer. if you manage 2-3k dpi (with a tractor!) then you can just prepare your receiver on an endless sheet of paper (process upstream) and just print and print and print. constantly. sort-of how the correct re-asphalt road crew works.
mircea_popescu: yep he is correct, in the negative sense. "they do not understand what are the REAL limits imposed on them, so they just go along social lines".
mircea_popescu: can have mylar weaved with the pores, for not so much money.
mircea_popescu: allow me to offer you a traditional "you guise are fulla shit" alfie.
mircea_popescu: identity is such a little bitch. almost as much as money.
mircea_popescu: ah that. wasn't re ribbons, but re the actual letters.
mircea_popescu: lol are you going to end up with people doing spoilers for you alfie ?
mircea_popescu: there's 0 willingness to import empire bullshit into the workflow. they must be raped, even if they'd be willing.
mircea_popescu: kanzure at some point someone came up with "charge the droplets, move elctrostatically, send them out with a quarz pump"
mircea_popescu: kanzure your discussion maps on the inkjet vs bubblejet historical approach to printing.
mircea_popescu: problem with this sorta gear is that it costs a billion.
mircea_popescu: here's the bitch : conducive is corrosive for this application.
mircea_popescu: "anything you want ; not conducive if you don't want it to"
mircea_popescu: imagine there's a bunch of bugs spawned over an acre. to perpetuate, they must mate. how shall they encounter each other ? "wut if we used this waste light and have them all seek it ?" said engineer in charge of moth one day ? "they'll necessarily converge before they reach the moon".
mircea_popescu: this is my theory, which i name it my theory because i came up with it.
mircea_popescu: did i ever recount my theory as to WHY they seek the lights ?
mircea_popescu: btw, you won't believe this, but for being the only house with incandescents on this mother-of-biodiversity hill i get like half the moths and consequently a third of the birds.
mircea_popescu: <mircea_popescu> now the lightbulbs, connected to the standard battery, did not light up. but only ever slightly orange in the filament.
mircea_popescu: possibly the event that made it impossible for me to be seriously racist in the usual sense.
mircea_popescu: no, i just concluded i was inept at standardization and speech generally.
mircea_popescu: mind you don't end up as sad as me at six as an adult. it goes away a lot faster at that age.
mircea_popescu: and only realised the problem after the garbage had been taken out.
mircea_popescu: so i threw it away. and piucked another one. same thing. so i scream-ask my mom, across the flat, "mom, is a lightbulb that doesn't not light up thereby no good ?" "yes" she says, evidently using a different standard of "not light up" than mine.
mircea_popescu: now the lightbulbs, connected to the standard battery, did not light up. but only ever slightly orange in the filament.
mircea_popescu: now this man... he had a set of 9V lightbulbs. and so as any good respectable citizen i sat down with the dead man's dragon pile, to TEST everythiung I got. yes ?
☟︎ mircea_popescu: now at the time we are writing about, "electronics hobbist lab lightbulb" meant a fixed, all-identical, standardized thing. gost like. every kid in school could recognize the item, "this is lightbulb". same for 4.5V 3-cell-in-paper battery and so on. identical, you understand ? (and same for all girls underweasr and all people's flats and furniture in them and so on)
mircea_popescu: and this guy who was an amateur electronist died, and he actually LEFT me his lab! which included all sorts of things, glassware from pre war and such.
mircea_popescu: so i was about six, and a bright young adorable kid with blond curls that proposed to my parents' friends' wives. marriage i mean. and even bit one.
mircea_popescu: speaking of which, did i ever recount my sad encounter with another man's electronics lab, as a 6 yo ?
mircea_popescu: you realise you'd prolly hang all my whores for "hanging out with enemy, AND wrong garterbelt buckles" if you had to manage the thing ?
mircea_popescu: or however you'd spell a portmanteau of psychology and physiognomy.
mircea_popescu: Guido Bertoni, Joan Daemen, Michaël Peeters, Gilles Van Assche and Ronny Van Keer << might as well dump the list of bernsteins that'll have to explain themselves.
mircea_popescu: for one thing, you'd prolly want to run it on the ffa anyway
mircea_popescu: or how would you call "guaranteed bijective hash function" if not anisotropic
mircea_popescu: algorithmic hash function is nice ; accordeoning hash function is nice ; anisotropic hash function would be nice to have.
mircea_popescu: one major point is that other than mpfhf which has been well implemented thanks to peterl, sina and ben_vulpes (and to some degree researched -- speaking of which, still cooking ben_vulpes ?), there's keccak which HASNT yet been implemented much ; and we really could use a fixed-block hash function that's any good.
☟︎ mircea_popescu: anyway. proper tmsr-rsa-signing is still in need of some chewing.
mircea_popescu: (if one's absolutely crazy can declare the function from 511 to 512 bytes, and then split all the packages into 511 byte blocks and hurr.)
mircea_popescu: there's no rule you must have collisions in this kind of hash function.
mircea_popescu: so i'd propose it's not properly speaking hashing in that sense, to take 512 byte blocks and spit out 512 byte blocks.
mircea_popescu: moreover, the relevant "hashing" is when you can have signature shorter than document. neither scheme contemplates that.
mircea_popescu: see, "any order" is not advantage because you have the original document to provide order ; and the "lose a few" works for enemy here, helps to fake sigs
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform consider something like : 1. split item to sign into 512 byte blocks. create block 0 from rng. sign hash(block 0), hash(block 1 + hash(block 0)), hash(block 2 + hash(block 1 + hash(block 0))), and so following.
mircea_popescu: a good tmsr-rsa signature write-up can't possibly hurt.
mircea_popescu: that's also how i was getting 20s whenever i felt like and so on. worthless govt paper.
mircea_popescu: anyway. the reason "chickenshit" and nobody cared about paying hoa in 1980 was that there wasn't anything whatsoever to do with the "money" anyway. much like in the us.
mircea_popescu: which is how and wherefore all these doods keep shitting their pants, "o noes, mother is upset with me!!1"
mircea_popescu: moreover, nastygrams in communism aren't what you think, chiefly because there's no other plantation and nobody is allowed to own savings or live off them. just like in us.
mircea_popescu: resulted in place of employment being notified and you being pulled before the "Collective" for your "attitude".
