Framedragger: (there's probably been some further design work? and then asciilifeform probably has something written down, i imagine)
mod6: Framedragger: are you trying to view a ticket for trb?
Framedragger: mod6: tbh am just fiddling around. i wanted a list of all tickets, and to be able to view every ticket separately, if that's even applicable
mod6: it won't do that, because, spam.
Framedragger: also i don't remember where on the web i can view this, if anywhere
mod6: i'm actually making a database currently for a possible private version in the future.
mod6: im tinkering with the database tables now actually.

mod6: anyway, trb takes my top efforts, but i'll fit this new t stuff in when I can for sure.
Framedragger: i'm mostly just lost between all the different pieces of the republican infrastructure :)
Framedragger: (which reminds me that i hinted of consolidating what i myself find into a wiki, which would be useful for folks, and never did that...)
Framedragger: asciilifeform: but pgp key itself would supply ciphers, right? yeah, cool stuff / makes sense.
shinohai: If you aren't queer or whatever I guess you can't write and get paid for them.
phf: Framedragger: yeah, bug in the router, can access as
http://btcbase.org/patches (which i know is confusing since it's also /log/), but obviously needs to be fixed
☟︎ phf: all the sbcl friendly patching that i did in september was done on the server, live, under fire, so right now i'm just slowly retroactively vpatching the code, at which point i can move onto the outstanding issues
trinque: phf: can has way of linking first spoken line of a nick?
phf: it got stable as soon as i stopped worrying about it
trinque: that's what I did with deedbot; forgot about it and the gods favored me.
trinque: still would be right endpoint that eventually would be honest?
mircea_popescu: yes but you prolly don't actually want it before he does the import
phf: asciilifeform: that's the first task after i vpatch the code. i basically started doing that on live server, got as far as loading the logs into memory, and realize that i can't change what's there without testing it, which means i need to backport everything into my dev environment. blah blah blah
phf: trinque: how's the interface supposed to look? /log-first-message?nick=foo and it gives you html rendering? or text/plain in kako format? or?

Framedragger: would be nice to run a netcraft-like service which observes all searchable internet's certificates..
BingoBoingo: ALso Nikki Haley condemned to UN Ambassador position, sound like career ender for the Governor.
trinque: Framedragger: it'd be a step towards a republican search engine too
trinque: something like pagerank with the logs being heavily favored over all other content would be quite useful
trinque: decent way to pick gems from the mountain of shit
Framedragger: i suppose the system could then also integrate with gns, in the sense that gns-listed content could in principle be searched, too..
mircea_popescu: google is ~worthless as it is, certainly there's a hole here.
trinque: given a concept of the top, you can do things like "archive all content within L2 of logs"
trinque: unfairness makes the world so manageable
Framedragger: trinque: L2 here means two edges away from logs?
mircea_popescu: in principle it would be very gns-based. if i sign btcbase/logs mkj.lt/log trilema.com etc, you can do "signed:mp" in your search box and get results from THESE
mircea_popescu: and obviously signed:mp&signed:alf ; or signed:mp||signed:alf etc
Framedragger: mircea_popescu: like, the name is signed, or specific piece of content is signed? i assume the former?
mircea_popescu: nah works just like !!rate. currently someone pops in, people !!up him, if he's not obnoxious gets a courtesy rating or two.
mircea_popescu: same thing : people pop a link in, if the site's any good it gets a !!readworthy
mircea_popescu: give trinque 's idea a bit of a kick, basically. just because something was mentioned here doesn't automatically mean it's worth reading ; though it IS a sign it exists.
Framedragger: the N-to-1 relation (many possible ratings for one name) needs to be stored somehow, i suppose it may be multiple gns fields, but then it is the case that not *all* fields of a specific name are controlled by the name's owner; or, there's a separate service / storage thing.
a111: Logged on 2015-09-14 02:02 trinque: I'd rather have the index of the right man's bookshelf than access to every landfill on earth for free
mircea_popescu: Framedragger on contemplation it'd be a "goodreads" root rather than the domain in question.
mircea_popescu: gns is not dns ; it will hold any symbols you realise.
mircea_popescu: so then deedbot could own goodreads and delegate mircea_popescu.goodreads to me.
Framedragger: (btw, current dns does not allow for arbitrary fields the way you think it does; it does have a TXT type of record, but that's not the same; types of records are baked-in in the sense that they have magical IDs to be specified at dns payload header. obvs this cannot stand!)
mircea_popescu: whole piece of shit is a repugnant midden of magic crap
mircea_popescu: that's the thing with magic values : they are secreted by and attract like pheromones the imperial mind.
Framedragger: mircea_popescu: i'm still not sure about the delegation thing. if A owns goodreads, B should in principle be able to register fuck.goodreads , right? but then allowing for a possibility of delegation would be nice. or, it'd just be a matter of convention *within deedbot's context*.
mircea_popescu: you know what'd happen if women had no legs ? all sidewalks would be covered in slime lines. but do you know what happened once plebs were taught to read ? all fucking code is covered in slime lines.
mircea_popescu: technically i suppose the correct way for this to work would be for me to own 6160E1CAC8A3C52966FD76998A736F0E2FB7B452 which i do own because hey.
mircea_popescu: then have name record on that = mircea popescu and freenode-nick record = mircea_popescu and blog = trilema.com and goodreads = whatever
mircea_popescu: now, the one hold-up here is that we've not yet settled on an universal-fingerprinting-function and we don't like how the koch-rsa fingerprinting works
mircea_popescu: note how neatly this clasps into the "causes, not purposes" thing, also.
mircea_popescu: it's like being indiana jones, all the meaningless fragments snap together eventually.
Framedragger: mircea_popescu: i suppose the system could just allow one to own multiple fingerprints, according to different schemes, with some constraints on length ('minimum length' at least)?
mircea_popescu: make it take fingerprints as they are for now, and can be extended later.
Framedragger: i guess i could invent a hash function which always outputs some short meaningful names like "CocksCocksBallsCocks" and then claim i have a right to them because that's my fingerprint, but it all boils down to WoT and "don't be ridiculous".
mircea_popescu: think - currently deedbot administers a very narrow implementation of the gns, whereby if you claim to own X domain, it challenges you and if you pass it gives it to you.
☟︎ Framedragger: mircea_popescu: i'm saying that there's a possible runaway effect where a party could claim to own many a fingerprint, because "their key fingerprinting function is like that", to the point where semantically useful names could be owned by them. but that's just ridiculous..
Framedragger: so deedbot or gns would decide on the allowed fingerprinting schemes.
deedbot: mircea_popescu is already registered.
mircea_popescu: this ranks way up there in the top 10 machine humour incidents
Framedragger: *mircea_popescu now permanently known as CocksCocksBallsCocks*
jhvh1: the shrieker shrieks
Framedragger: asciilifeform: hence why you invented your own fp scheme for phuctor, right..
mircea_popescu: this problem is harder than you realise, because eg, you don't know what publishing hash(privkey) leaks.
mircea_popescu: because thatg's the only way you're guaranteed to not have the current gpg problem
mircea_popescu: i'm not making the argument you should. i'm just pointing out that it is the only way to be 100%.
mircea_popescu: no i wasn't about to send pubkeys to freeonlinehashes.foryou
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform no argument re it being broken. point is - it exists, and can't be trivially fucked for now, so until replacement is made, can be used.
mircea_popescu: all our uses, in deedbot, in voicing model, in wot, in v, all rely on the concept of fp as gns namespace.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform you realise, deedbot searched me in its own copy of the gns. by fp.
mircea_popescu: yes well, to clean a room you gotta at some point stand on dirty floor.
mircea_popescu: trinque would you be capable to migrate to indexing by pubkey numeric value ?
mircea_popescu: he does have a point, and i think also the code to allow you to extract it from a pubkey if need be
trinque: mircea_popescu: if this is something I can jam into gpg at each call
mircea_popescu: trinque it'd just be the index, you can keep precomputed field with anything you'd like right next to it.
trinque: or otherwise it calls for homebrew RSA+padding
trinque: and sure, could easily do this. I was already going to move the pubkey into my db for the www-wot pages
Framedragger: jesus you guys, you realise all those deedbot messages are still internally encrypted with symmetric aes ('session key') right? and you think the lowest-hanging fruit is fingerprint? ok i guess
mircea_popescu: it makes the db slightly larger, but it does solve a fundamental problem.
Framedragger also wonders about pure rsa performance. guess we'll see :)
trinque: sometimes people can think of two, even three fruits at a time!
mircea_popescu: moreover not all fruits are blocking ; and some things are just good hygiene at low cost
Framedragger: asciilifeform: i guess i should. yeah fair enough. btw iirc there's still no markable security difference between urandom and random?
a111: Logged on 2016-11-23 16:15 mircea_popescu: and it'd be gns://trilema.com/
