mircea_popescu: the idea was that you need them together. maybe concat, i guess.
mircea_popescu: so bnasically, fhf as just a m is a hash, as s+m it's a "padding" function
mircea_popescu: a lot of interesting questions for the thinking man in our age.
mircea_popescu: in fact the whole game of life thing was exploratory in that direction.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform you can't unwrap it in hardware. unlike rsa, fhfs you sitll hafta iterate.
mircea_popescu: point being, this isn't a valid objection. any work will take a truck, and any computing will take custom hardware.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform every algorithm rewards not-intel-hardware.
mircea_popescu: good for you. now you can't use it to do 5k hashes parallel.
mircea_popescu: i'm just hoping S is over 1mb for the 64kb/2kb item and yay.
mircea_popescu: it pushes in 1st stage "well, select some criteria you REALLY care about then" and after that it's "wel lthis ball of warts does that, so fuck you with it"
mircea_popescu: this outlook is how america became walmart and cmachine
mircea_popescu: this can't be a thing "i want a bunch of substantially different items that are all identical to the best performing one in any arbitrarily chosen criteria"
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform you can't have alternatives WITHOUT ALTERNATIVE!
mircea_popescu: in taking hours it is doing EXACTLY what we wanted it to do.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform you can't have a computationally infeasible algo that's also easy to compute!
mircea_popescu: rebase. now you know why yo uhave to -- nobody's waiting for your 500 long tree.
mircea_popescu: 6 months is no less than 500 patches. what tree is 500 patches long ?
mircea_popescu: as someone who has written 64kb in one sitting, it's ONLY FUCKING FAIR.
mircea_popescu: at the very least should give some indication what to look at closer
mircea_popescu: "what's the difference between whimsical and whipsical ?" "the welts."
mircea_popescu: people have this uncanny ability to describe abstracts they do not in the least comprehend.
mircea_popescu: you're not gonna be remembered as "that guy who spent the whole time touristing" are you.
mircea_popescu: this is turning into some pretty hardcore computering, 8 versions per M, esp in the 64kb / 2kb format
mircea_popescu: add to that 2 instances of a single randomly located bit flipped.
mircea_popescu: ok, so for every string of FG bits called M, do hashing of M, M+1, M+2, M with first bit flipped, M with first two bits flipped, inverse of M. that's 6 items.
☟︎ mircea_popescu: and do some standards : M, xor M, M+1, M-1, M shifted 1 etc
mircea_popescu: ben_vulpes you should prolly also capture the M/H pairs
mircea_popescu: lobbes are you going to not let delinquents auction till they pay ? :D
mircea_popescu: that'd be the other point of interest, "how big does S get"
mircea_popescu: this incidentally is a very undiscussed topic, suspiciously. what is the effect of generating BOTH the padding for a message and the key that's used on the same... historical debian / kochatron /etcv
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform it's well known, i had conversations re this in 2012. prolly can fish out quote.
mircea_popescu: anyway -- if you're making both the payload and the hash on the same machine...
mircea_popescu: this aside ; i'm kinda loath to mix rsa in both padding and encryption. for all anyone knows they resonate
mircea_popescu: this is computationally worse than mpfhf though. imagine, nextprime(todays log).
mircea_popescu: "does it at least support unicode ?" "no. you may not teach reading to arabs, it's a sin."
mircea_popescu: large part of usgization of normal processes. "oh, does your msg app support VIDEO ?" bitch, i don't want to watch overweight dudes with their cats braying into a mic.
mircea_popescu: or other things. and if you don't must, you FUCKING DIDN'T NEED THE GB.
mircea_popescu: basically, there's a large number of perfectly useful applications for 64kb capable hash. and upon examination it may be discovered that larger sizes not supported is not a bug
mircea_popescu: and in other lulz, #trilema OODA loop : "hey, make an X" "what kind an X ?" "JUST MAKE AN X!" *picks arbitrary params a through w, makes such an X. "here you go" "o cool, now set b to this and q to that, link l to k and make c double d" "here." "holy shit the submarine now flies! and lays eggs! good job man!"
