mircea_popescu: asciilifeform amusingly, that actually translates "incompetent" in english, which is the right word. "without the ability of entering contracts".
mircea_popescu: because otherwise what the hell, it's not a lease it's a girlfriendizing contract.
mircea_popescu: still. every lease i ever saw/signed had fixed term for leasor at will clause for leaser.
mircea_popescu: "i'll just dump these remains in your back yard, throw them out whenever you're sick of them" is not what a lease says.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform mno. church can ordain whatever the fuck it pleases ; but a lease is not at-will wtf is the point even.
mircea_popescu: in other lulz, some dude drove over a half dozen french whatever they are, soldiers-polizei.
mircea_popescu: how the fuck does the church "decide to terminate the family's lease"
mircea_popescu thinks "well... what if you had a group instead, and you could... o fuck me, discrete logarithms. guess what, another basis for cryptosystems".
mircea_popescu: no wtf there. the wtf is more in the line of "check him out, he wants to use a computer without the if key"
mircea_popescu: well, at least it was painless to check the code, all of 30 seconda
mircea_popescu: well, you do the whole polynomioal thing right ? if exponent is 1101 you do 3 out of 4 squares
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform but you don't have to use the crap parts. the idea itself is sound, further reduces any montgomery reduction.,
mircea_popescu: basically, you precompute conveniently chosen powers of 2, and then you get rid of most of the product larger than
mircea_popescu: no, see. if you could have a not-always-worstcase fixtime algo you would have in fact found pill.
mircea_popescu: i am now very suspicious you can't ever have a good solution, in the sense that if you find it... you'll have found a fine reason not to need it anymore.
mircea_popescu: i know that face glaring back at me. it is the face of unyielding fucking doom.
mircea_popescu: heh. the graph of a ^ x mod b looks eheheheheeexactly like the riemann functions / unit covering shenanigans.
mircea_popescu: you can add the words in any order you wish and you can keep whichever intermediates you feel like
mircea_popescu: i am telling you, his thing is ripe for rewritting in a more apt notation. he is misrepresenting it because thinking in therms of fucking logic gates
mircea_popescu: but you don't have to use a table, you should be able to make it work in a matrixc
mircea_popescu: no but you write it as a full matrix, you get the undo for free
mircea_popescu: there's no rule you must do the parts in order or anything
mircea_popescu: but you serialize and do a whole word's worth of bit diddle as a xor
mircea_popescu: and a possible candidate for "alt cryptosystem" at that.
mircea_popescu: tell me 13% of 50 years somehow comes out to less than a week ?
mircea_popescu: i am all for keepiong the unrolled version at the ready ; but i really see no problem with having and using the unrolled loops version. you read it once, over a weekend or a week, and you use it ten billion times over fifty years.
mircea_popescu: anyway, re the unrolls : it's really not that bad, because of the patterns. it's only "unreadable" because alien because too much time spent reading code written by idiots.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform i doubt it. ~nobody who came before did anything useful and ~nobody currently active has an actually functioning brain.
mircea_popescu: anyway. i think the point re : fathers are worthless , siblings are severely retarded is well vindicated
mircea_popescu: honestly i don't believe the somewhat more cl is such a problem.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform yeah, i guess. depends though, good to have both variants.
mircea_popescu: and finally re crc : given a string S of any length, the probability of a string S' where less than 32 bits have been altered in a "burst" passiong crc32 is 0. if you go over 32 bit long bursts the probability is ~ proportional to the burst length / 32.
mircea_popescu: reversing MPFHF is not required for the above quoted version, as the fhf is used there as a hash function not as a padder. (and alf's objection is valid, not a very good option, a settable size output sponge would be much better).
mircea_popescu: !~later tell peterl the hash-xor thing is oadp, which is a provedly strong padding scheme for rsa.
mircea_popescu: the herd is lazy, the aparatchicks are scared, and the intelligent are lost in the soup, interacting with cattle and criminals as if they were people.
☟︎ mircea_popescu: but yes, i agree that in principle something-like-keccak could be made to spit arbitrary len digests ; and perhaps also in fixed space. the latter will require actual impl to settle.
mircea_popescu: but isn't it great that all mgm needs to do is to put on a coupla hats and suddenly the turnips think themselves human fucking beings ?
mircea_popescu: independent" "free" bla bla made by amdocs employees. which YES, is that thing made by the israeli golden pages, and YES is that thing involved in the espionage scandals. and so on.
mircea_popescu: in other lulz : obviously there's a "foundation" and a "code of conduct" (the usgistani nonsense copy/pasted) and a freenode chan, why not. ~600 accounts logged in (specifically :
http://p.bvulpes.com/pastes/yDU6G/?raw=true ) , ZERO anyone has to say at all whatsoever. most are related to matrix.org, which is a pile of nonsensical lulz which you're more than welcome to try and make sense of by yourself. in any case, it's an "
☟︎ mircea_popescu: hanging out with any other troop of stoners would be a better use of your time, in the sense of variety.
mircea_popescu: nobody knows what the fuck "sha 2017" is. nobody cares. even the people paid to fucking care stopped giving a shit in the 90s, as that nsa goon at "crypto conferences" piece amply attests.
mircea_popescu: "tell that to some guy a little younger than you, who just fell off the turnip truck. there is no publicity value in my talk being at your conference. what, if you sell 2000 of them it'll be a miracle. and what, what are people going to say, uuuuuu i like how that erlehmann talks, i wonder if he's got a blog or anything".
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform i guess when he comes back from the mpfhf reverser ima make him do a keccak impl that ACTUALLY does the any-output thing. afaik they're all 32/64byte
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform most importantly, do we ACTUALLY want to do something pgp-retarded like say R.len = 200 bytes, repeat the last 50 for a 250 byte total then use the repeat to make sure you decrypted correctly ?
