thestringpuller | decentralized bitbet? | [00:03] |
thestringpuller | http://augur.link/augur.pdf | [00:03] |
danielpbarron | such a thing is not possible; there needs to be an arbiter to decide if a bet has resolved yes or no | [00:05] |
thestringpuller | but that's what oracles are for | [00:07] |
asciilifeform | 'A key feature of Augur is tradeable Reputation. The total amount of Reputation is a fixed quantity, determined upon the launch of Augur. Holding Reputation entitles its owner to report on the outcomes of events, after the events occur. Reputation tokens are similar in other respects to Bitcoins: they are divisible to eight decimal places, they are accounted for by summing over unspent transaction outputs, and they can be sent | [00:07] |
asciilifeform | between users.' | [00:07] |
asciilifeform | ^ lol! | [00:07] |
asciilifeform | srsly ? | [00:07] |
thestringpuller | danielpbarron is in party. regenerate 5 hp per turn. :D | [00:07] |
thestringpuller | caise ypi | [00:07] |
thestringpuller | cause you're a crypto priest* | [00:07] |
danielpbarron | decentralized bitbet like counterparty is decentralized mpex; just replaces the infrastructure (with something worse) | [00:08] |
asciilifeform | i'm not averse to seeing actual solutions to 'decentralized xxxxx,' but they inevitably fall short re: 'democracy-proofing' | [00:09] |
asciilifeform | who wants democracy pus in his meal ? | [00:09] |
thestringpuller | !s democracy-proofing | [00:09] |
assbot | 0 results for 'democracy-proofing' : http://s.b-a.link/?q=democracy-proofing | [00:09] |
thestringpuller | care to elaborate sir asciilifeform ? | [00:09] |
thestringpuller | or is it Dr. asciilifeform | [00:10] |
asciilifeform | aka sybil, dos, etc. attacks | [00:10] |
asciilifeform | !s sybil | [00:10] |
assbot | 34 results for 'sybil' : http://s.b-a.link/?q=sybil | [00:10] |
asciilifeform | there we go. | [00:10] |
thestringpuller | how does that prevent democracy? (a sybil attack)? | [00:10] |
asciilifeform | the basic idea is that meat puppets are not in any fundamental way different from other types of puppet. | [00:10] |
asciilifeform | and must be dealt with through same mechanisms. | [00:10] |
asciilifeform | the 'tradeable reputation' thing sounds disastrous. | [00:11] |
asciilifeform | perhaps i'm just thick. | [00:11] |
thestringpuller | ah. i understand your viewpoint tho. | [00:11] |
thestringpuller | it all depends on volume of puppet imo. | [00:12] |
thestringpuller | or maybe everyone is a puppet of some sort. that's a little beyond me tho | [00:12] |
asciilifeform | in point of fact, even our system of reputation (wot) is theoretically 'tradeable', in that somebody could - in principle - sell his privkey to satan | [00:12] |
danielpbarron | of course it's disastrous; it's like giving the -otc folk power based on their total rating score (which they build up through trivial deals) | [00:13] |
asciilifeform | but baking tradeability in as a matter of course - is another thing | [00:13] |
asciilifeform | lunacy, imho | [00:13] |
* | MetatronOne has quit (Quit: Connection closed for inactivity) | [00:13] |
thestringpuller | isn't this classic dilemma of selling soul for some benefit/value | [00:13] |
thestringpuller | you only have one to trade. | [00:13] |
asciilifeform | which they build up through trivial deals << aha. this is actually an age-old plague on 'ebay' and the like. | [00:13] |
thestringpuller | tis also irreverisble in nature. | [00:13] |
asciilifeform | sc4mz0r cultivates rating with 100,000 'a+++++ gr34t d34lz' | [00:14] |
asciilifeform | of fivebux each | [00:14] |
asciilifeform | then proceeds to sell, e.g., nonexisting cars. | [00:14] |
danielpbarron | the joke in otc is "Smooth TM" | [00:14] |
thestringpuller | this is how athero was able to launch ziggap | [00:14] |
thestringpuller | he sold shares in non existant broker bitcoin selling thing compan | [00:15] |

danielpbarron | what with all the hard fork drama, i'd say anything that can be kept centralized should probably remain centralized | [00:16] |
thestringpuller | danielpbarron: i think the hardfork drama is fundamentally seeing split, or cold war in bitcoin | [00:16] |
thestringpuller | east vs. west. | [00:16] |
thestringpuller | capitalist vs. socialist | [00:16] |
thestringpuller | etc. | [00:16] |
asciilifeform | i have said before that an official usg altcoin is inevitable. | [00:17] |
asciilifeform | gavincoin's probably it. | [00:17] |
thestringpuller | yet we'll still pay taxes in bezzles? | [00:17] |
asciilifeform | thestringpuller: gavincoin is not made to replace usd, but to bleed bitcoin | [00:17] |
thestringpuller | ofc, but USG coin that is used to also do what? annoy us out of our money like some comcast nonsenese? | [00:18] |
asciilifeform | you will have to ask the fellow who thought it up | [00:18] |
asciilifeform | once he sits down on mircea_popescu's stake. | [00:18] |
asciilifeform | perhaps he'll do a q&a | [00:18] |
danielpbarron | "I am slowely being impaled on a sharped stake. Ask me anything." | [00:19] |
asciilifeform | !b 5 | [00:19] |
assbot | Last 5 lines bashed and pending review. ( http://dpaste.com/0VE53AD.txt ) | [00:19] |
thestringpuller | asciilifeform: I do not see how anyone will contribute to usgavincoin when Buterin's waterfall explodes right after inception. | [00:20] |
thestringpuller | Spend X money to build hoover dam and it explodes less than a year while runnign? | [00:21] |
asciilifeform | seems clear that they'll pour the water on the other side. | [00:21] |
asciilifeform | not on their own. (of the fork) | [00:21] |
thestringpuller | But isn't this like someone trying to power a water wheel by simply running up stream with buckets of water they collect downstream? | [00:22] |
asciilifeform | collected. | [00:22] |
asciilifeform | or rather, robbed. | [00:22] |
danielpbarron | there are plenty of people who are so focused on "mass adoption" as a priority that they will compromise any and all aspects of bitcoin to further that goal; what would get more mass adoption than endorsement from USG? | [00:22] |
thestringpuller | It's still non-trivial effort tho, to run long term | [00:22] |
thestringpuller | and wasteful. like fast explosion vs slow ember | [00:22] |
thestringpuller | at least in my mind | [00:22] |
asciilifeform | i'm not seeing any serious evidence of 'long-term' thinking on usg's part. | [00:23] |
thestringpuller | i can only imagine poor peon running up stream trying to keep water wheel moving | [00:23] |
asciilifeform | i can easily picture an 'atomic war' where every btc which usg has at some point begged, borrowed, stole, or can prevail upon a vassal to give up control of - will be placed on market in a 'last hurrah' | [00:24] |
thestringpuller | danielpbarron: re: mass adoption << I always felt people wanted mass adoption so price raises. | [00:24] |
thestringpuller | Which is perverted thinking at best. | [00:25] |
thestringpuller | starving marvin in kenya buys a bitcoin with his 50000 kenyan shillings he saved up over the course of 5 years... | [00:25] |
danielpbarron | i don't think they are so rational; i suspect it has more to do with "going viral" like a clever youtube video, and having been in on it before it was trendy | [00:26] |
danielpbarron | although 2014 might have put an end to that | [00:27] |
thestringpuller | i never understood when going viral became the equivalent of becoming valuable... | [00:29] |
* | paxtoncamaro91 (~paxtoncam@unaffiliated/paxtoncamaro91) has joined #bitcoin-assets | [00:29] |
asciilifeform | from the standpoint of vermin - yes, valuable | [00:29] |
asciilifeform | all vermin envy the virus. | [00:30] |
thestringpuller | black plague for all? | [00:30] |
thestringpuller | but in all srsns, i thought the "popularity contest" died out by the end of high school | [00:30] |
thestringpuller | now it seems the popularity contest is "the thing" | [00:30] |
thestringpuller | 22:13 <+asciilifeform> i have said before that an official usg altcoin is | [00:32] |

mircea_popescu | asciilifeform: (and that there is another one, where it wasn't. but i think we did this one before) << like 5 or 7 times. | [00:42] |
mircea_popescu | danielpbarron: such a thing is not possible; there needs to be an arbiter to decide if a bet has resolved yes or no << easier to "invent" stuff than understand stuff. just like it's easier to write new code than understand coding. | [00:44] |
mircea_popescu | "whenever misreporting an event is worth more to your stake than it costs to buy back the lost reputation, you misreport the event. decentralized selective scamming ftw!" | [00:46] |
mircea_popescu | "others will not readily understand how our implementation of 3 card monte is an implementation of 3 card monte, giving us an exploitable knowledge asymmetry - which makes this exactly an altcoin, which is why it's sensible to pretend we're like bitcoin" | [00:47] |
mircea_popescu | etc | [00:47] |
mircea_popescu | thestringpuller: this is how athero was able to launch ziggap << not a very good example. he had amassed trust over time, and likely at a higher cost than what he made out of it. the controlling factor there was "insane guy stopped taking his pills one day." | [00:49] |

thestringpuller | mircea_popescu: i couldn't find good example on top of head. but was jist of it received? | [00:50] |
mircea_popescu | sure | [00:50] |
mircea_popescu | asciilifeform: gavincoin's probably it. << no. in typical fashion they're trying to play it "anonymously". ie, not official. | [00:51] |
mircea_popescu | it really gets them the worst of both worlds, but hey, it's what committees get. no actual men there to take charge. | [00:51] |
mircea_popescu | danielpbarron: there are plenty of people who are so focused on "mass adoption" as a priority that they will compromise any and all aspects of bitcoin to further that goal; what would get more mass adoption than endorsement from USG? << it could become a new brand of tide. | [00:52] |
mircea_popescu | "bitcoin is now a detergent. finally a commodity !!!" | [00:52] |
asciilifeform | they're trying to play it "anonymously". ie, not official << with pretense every bit as thin as with 'tor'. | [00:54] |
mircea_popescu | hence worst of both worlds. | [00:55] |

decimation | the other amusing point that the article fails to bring up: if the 'poor' must pay to live in a dense shitty city, why not move to the country? | [03:05] |
asciilifeform | decimation: presumably, moving costs something | [03:05] |
mircea_popescu | the poor flock to the city since the times of rabelais for the same reason : you can eat without working there. | [03:06] |

decimation | "So we started writing Systemd, and Red Hat didn’t like it at all. Red Hat management said: no, we’re going for Upstart, don’t work on that. So I said, OK, I’ll work on it in my free time. Eventually Red Hat realised that the problems we solved with Systemd were relevant, and were problems that needed to be solved, and that you couldn’t ignore them." | [03:30] |

undata | decimation: I wasn't aware of that particular detail | [03:31] |
undata | tragic; upstart is a much simpler alternative | [03:31] |
decimation | "So anyway, long story short, we came to the conclusion that Upstart is conceptually wrong, and it moved at glacial speeds. It also had the problem that Canonical tried very hard to stay in control of it. They made sure, with copyright assignment, that they made it really hard to contribute, but that’s what Linux actually lives off. You get these drive-by patches, as I would call them, where people see that something is broken, or | [03:32] |
decimation | something could be improved. They do a Git checkout, do one change, send you it and forget about it." | [03:32] |
decimation | he tries to make a halfass technical argument against Upstart, and then whines that it's hard to make commits | [03:32] |

mircea_popescu | the lulz is so thick, considering the playbook is identically replayed with the gavincoin | [04:02] |

mircea_popescu | kinda why "adoption" is meaningless. i don't care for anyone to "adopt" anything i do. i might care if they change to fit to it. but otherwise, good fucking luck, there's no value in having a bunch of pacific islanders speak english as if it were the retarded language they spoke before. | [04:06] |

mircea_popescu | in any case, the entire lennart gambit is that "actually smart people won't be able to find each other in our sea of lemmings" | [04:10] |
mircea_popescu | kinda why stuff like the wot-foss i was discussing and even gossipd are so important | [04:10] |
decimation | well, apparently he confirmed that redhat was itself a ship of lemmings, looking for a lemming-king, and lennart was their man | [04:11] |
mircea_popescu | but also why a certain attitude to ineptitude, from the "affirmative action", "wopmen in tech" "don't say nigger" all the way to stupidities like the equalitarism in freenode's policies is so very important. and why linus' "fuck you" is such a major thing. | [04:12] |
mircea_popescu | it's not gratuitous, all this. it provides a very valuable signal, both to the inferior and to the superior. | [04:12] |

PeterL | new voicing model, we still have to join #b-a before verifying otp | [13:27] |
mircea_popescu | works so it simplifies deedbot design a lot ? | [13:27] |

kakobrekla | how does it simplify ? | [13:27] |

mircea_popescu | the workload pain will probably be far exceeded by the cries of horror of the large hordes of nobodies that can no longer "innovate", in the sense their gunk is no longer included in repos | [13:28] |

decimation | eh? I don't think so | [13:48] |
mircea_popescu | decimation he goes to toast the queen. the athem's going on so queen ignores him. | [13:48] |
mircea_popescu | lotta hay made out of how "the queen snubbed obama'. but the guy's just not very aware. which looked to me like a very very tired man that's being constantly pestered with advice and requirements by about 9 spinster women. | [13:49] |

mircea_popescu | kakobrekla works for me, editing this spec. | [13:49] |
decimation | yeah, actually from his rambling answer in the linked youtube (starting 45:30), there's very little evidence obama is even aware about the 'backdoor encryption' issue at all | [13:50] |
mircea_popescu | honestly, i don't see it's a president's job, that. | [13:51] |
mircea_popescu | and it's not how you ask the president that question, either. | [13:51] |
decimation | well, certainly it ought to be something he answers in writing, in detail | [13:51] |
decimation | the trouble is there's no method to compel an answer | [13:51] |
mircea_popescu | this is roughly the equivalent of a company with 10k cab fleet having famously a weak alternator, and some reporter asking the CEO "what about the spinny trick ?" | [13:51] |

mircea_popescu | decimation: there's a deep hypocrisy here somewhere. apparently the usg entities who are involved with foreign surveillance couldn't possibly do their jobs if they were subject to 'regulation', but of course regular people trying to say, transact bitcoin, have no such reprieve << well, usg entities that deal in bitcoin do have such reprieve currently ? | [14:05] |

ben_vulpes | i don't really know how the transmission of btc is supposed to work for the thing | [15:55] |
undata | it'd be neat if the thing paid its own bills out of its fees on some btc vps | [15:55] |
ben_vulpes | probably want to decouple bot from funding actions | [15:55] |
ben_vulpes | anyways | [15:55] |
ben_vulpes | tx backport archaeology's an interesting thing | [15:55] |
ben_vulpes | i'm starting to see some of the rationale behind the wallet paradigm - creating transactions for signing requires being able to retrieve arbitrary transactions from the blockchain | [15:56] |
danielpbarron | i'd say TA is more like starcraft | [15:56] |
ben_vulpes | far easier for the people working on it at the time to make some silly assumptions about what txns a user would want to sign, and then keep those txns on hand | [15:57] |
ben_vulpes | creating a raw transaction requires having the previous transaction in hand in full at runtime, so as to extract the pubkey from the previous transaction | [15:57] |
ben_vulpes | while this isn't *strictly* necessary, it's how things work now. | [15:57] |
ben_vulpes | i don't know that a bitcoind would be able to verify a transaction without access to the full inputs | [15:58] |
danielpbarron | i thought all you need to know is the tx id of the outputs you want to use, the private keys of the coresponding addresses, a destination, and an amount | [15:59] |
ben_vulpes | to use the modern txn api, yeah | [15:59] |
ben_vulpes | but! | [16:00] |
ben_vulpes | to verify that you've created a valid transaction, you have to have the entirety of the previous output on hand to examine the public key | [16:00] |
ben_vulpes | otherwise you just sign hash of txn, index in txn, and have no way to double check that you produced a valid signature corresponding to the pubkey to which those funds were transmitted originally. | [16:01] |
ben_vulpes | danielpbarron: make sense? | [16:01] |
* | AaronvanW has quit (Remote host closed the connection) | [16:02] |
ben_vulpes | (one can sign anything at any time - that's not the problem. the problems crop up in a) knowing the sigs are valid and b) the multi-input, multi-privkey transaction generation use-case: how am i to know which privkeys are to be used to sign which inputs, and furthermore [and somewhat recursively] how do i know those signatures to be valid?) | [16:02] |
danielpbarron | what are you signing it with? | [16:02] |
ben_vulpes | a user-supplied privkey. | [16:02] |
danielpbarron | the one that goes with the pubkey of the output right/ | [16:03] |
ben_vulpes | sure | [16:03] |
ben_vulpes | how do i get the pubkey for a given output? | [16:03] |
ben_vulpes | say i have the transaction hash (aka txid) and output index - how do i get the pubkey those coins were sent to? | [16:04] |
danielpbarron | this is for deedbot right? don't you already know what the last pubkey was? | [16:04] |
ben_vulpes | no no no | [16:04] |
ben_vulpes | raw transactions | [16:04] |
ben_vulpes | *entirely* different project | [16:04] |
danielpbarron | oh well yeah you need to know the whole blockchain to verify a tx in that case | [16:05] |
danielpbarron | i tried to make a raw tx once, got rejected by my own node for having too small a fee | [16:06] |
asciilifeform | sorta the point of having blockchain, no ? | [16:06] |
ben_vulpes | "whole blockchain" << and more specifically, a trivial lookup of txids | [16:06] |
asciilifeform | ben_vulpes: iirc, i did mention 'can pull up arbitrary tx' as part of what a 'whole bitcoin node' has to do | [16:07] |

mircea_popescu | Apocalyptic the fingerprint, penultimate line. | [21:28] |
undata | davout is right | [21:28] |
Apocalyptic | it does show "Primary key fingerprint: 6160 E1CA C8A3 C529 66FD 7699 8A73 6F0E 2FB7 B452" because you have you own key in your keyring obviously | [21:28] |
Apocalyptic | go try it on a system you have no | [21:28] |
Apocalyptic | *not | [21:29] |
mircea_popescu | davout if you don';t have the key you can't verify signatures, dork! | [21:29] |
davout | lol, deedbot isn't supposed to verify sigs amirite | [21:29] |
Apocalyptic | well this was the whole point of the discussion | [21:29] |
Apocalyptic | and according to davout it's not supposed ot verify | [21:29] |
undata | ^ this enraged me | [21:29] |
* | undata is open to correction | [21:29] |
davout | i could tell | [21:29] |
mircea_popescu | well apparently it just became required to verify cause otherwise it can't talk to assbot. | [21:30] |
mircea_popescu | accidental spec! | [21:30] |
davout | mircea_popescu: with the fingerprint for a key it could simply do what you said wrt requesting trust data as a json blob from the w.b-a.link thing | [21:30] |
davout | s/for a key/for a sig/ | [21:31] |
mircea_popescu | davout but assbot won't respond unless he queries by fingerprints. | [21:31] |
davout | yea that's the whole problem | [21:31] |
mircea_popescu | IF gpg doesn't put out full fingerprints for verified keys, then gpg is broken | [21:31] |
mircea_popescu | gpg: Signature made Sat 21 Aug 1999 07:04:31 PM ART using DSA key ID 8ACE3E79 | [21:31] |
mircea_popescu | gpg: Can't check signature: public key not found | [21:31] |
mircea_popescu | myeah. | [21:31] |
davout | the crux is 'verified keys', if deedbot doesn't maintain a full keyring at all times it can't pull fingerprints | [21:32] |
davout | this sounds a bit overkill to me | [21:32] |
mircea_popescu | defo the gpg signature model is bad. | [21:32] |
mircea_popescu | feel free to fork and fix the gpg key verification process so it reports fingerpritns properly not wtf it's doing now. | [21:32] |
davout | gpg can't know the fpr for a key it doesn't have, the information isn't part of the signature packet | [21:33] |
Apocalyptic | mircea, note that neither the "-v" nor the "--with-fingerprint" flags are required to get the fingerprint line displayed | [21:33] |
mircea_popescu | who the fuck did thius. | [21:33] |
Apocalyptic | ^ I asked myself the same | [21:33] |
davout | see http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=17-01-2015#980997 | [21:34] |
assbot | Logged on 17-01-2015 22:34:54; davout: asciilifeform: yeah, that's what i was reading, it mentions user ids in the subpackets spec, but i'm unsure whether that includes an actual key fingerprint, i tend to understand that it doesn't | [21:34] |
* | mircea_popescu rages | [21:34] |
mircea_popescu | dude rms, you saved 24 bytes aren't you a smart fucking cookie. | [21:34] |
mircea_popescu | davout only possible workaround seems keeping the lordship keys. | [21:35] |
PeterL | would it be hard to maintain a keyring with all us in it? | [21:35] |
undata | no | [21:35] |
Apocalyptic | that's what punkman's bot did afaik | [21:35] |
mircea_popescu | which i guess is not that bad, seeing how it also solves the problem of the untrustworthy pgp-sks etc | [21:35] |
davout | anyway, my point wrt to deedbot is that it's supposed to be used by ppl with L1/L2 trust, it doesn't need to check gpg signatures, so let anyone with +v in -assets use it, do away with the requirement that a keyid belonging to someone in assbot's wot be presented or maliciously hammered into the message | [21:35] |
mircea_popescu | so i guess ima have to modify the spec instead of finishing my "on terrorism' article. | [21:36] |
mircea_popescu | davout how do you propose to query assbot for l1/l2 inclusion ? | [21:36] |
davout | whoever has voice in -assets shall be deemed worthy to notarize | [21:36] |
mircea_popescu | derp. | [21:37] |
mircea_popescu | no, it's not ok to overload voice like that. | [21:37] |
undata | this was my entire rant | [21:37] |
davout | greatly simplifies the problem, don't see too much downside to it, and we're eventually moving to gossipd anyway | [21:37] |
mircea_popescu | i give voice to all the whores, not to mention all sorts of known usg agents | [21:37] |
PeterL | but you would still need keys to verify deed signatures? | [21:37] |
undata | why should gpg exist; irc is apparently all we ever needed | [21:37] |
mircea_popescu | PeterL original spec didn't call for that. | [21:37] |
davout | and notary would be connected through asswot's gossipd's node anyway | [21:37] |
PeterL | oh, do deeds even need to be gpg signed? | [21:38] |
mircea_popescu | davout undata gossipd can well be a year or two away. | [21:38] |
mircea_popescu | PeterL yes. | [21:38] |
undata | mircea_popescu: I am being facetious, and argued earlier for sig verification | [21:38] |
davout | let whores timestamp some blobs now and then i say | [21:38] |
undata | I'm hacking on something now, but will wait for an updated spec | [21:38] |
PeterL | why sign if you are not verifying? | [21:38] |

davout | undata: you fail to comprehend that it's not deedbot's job to certify to a third party that the contract is signed by an identified party, gpg already does that | [21:39] |
davout | wrt to your earlier example of me scamming you, anybody can verify i signed the contract by using gpg itself | [21:39] |
undata | davout: its output should be the history of valid deeds, not "that which a rubber stamp has touched" | [21:39] |
davout | why the hell would it need deedbot to testify to that too ? | [21:40] |
undata | god... do the proceedings of court note that a pidgeon shat on the window? | [21:40] |
davout | that didn't parse | [21:40] |
davout | it did derp | [21:40] |
undata | have you ever been to a notary? | [21:40] |
davout | why do you absolutely want to shoehorn your conception of a notary into deedbot? | [21:41] |
undata | do you know what a deed is? | [21:41] |
undata | or why one has it observed by a 3rd party? | [21:41] |
undata | and signed as such | [21:41] |
davout | we don't need Z to witness that X and Y signed a contract together, because any party can and will use GPG | [21:42] |
davout | and properly verify that fact | [21:42] |
davout | why would Z's word add any value to the information GPG outputs? | [21:42] |
punkman | it doesn't really, but it's useful nonetheless | [21:43] |
undata | keeps the published bundles down to a size that is manageable | [21:43] |

davout | and only them | [21:47] |

mircea_popescu | its point is enacting privilege, not segregation. | [21:48] |
davout | what is privilege if not the differentiation from the un-privileged? | [21:49] |

undata | mircea_popescu: I read the payment as coming from the party wanting a signature, not the bot? | [21:49] |
undata | or no | [21:50] |
undata | seems fair to me; pay per use | [21:50] |
mircea_popescu | undata no, payment comes from teh boty. | [21:50] |
undata | whyssat? | [21:50] |
mircea_popescu | but dun worry about it, i seeded the prev one an' ill seed this one too. | [21:50] |
undata | k | [21:51] |
mircea_popescu | davout it gotta be one way. if there's four people and they fuck in two subsets of twos, that's segregation. if there's one that fucks all other three but the rest only jack off, that's privilege. | [21:52] |
davout | i see | [21:53] |
mircea_popescu | is "and pushes it to public repositories" a point of contention ? | [21:54] |
PeterL | wouldn't keys already be public when registering with assbot? | [21:54] |
davout | mircea_popescu: well, now the bot needs a key too :-) | [21:55] |
mircea_popescu | PeterL idea kinda is to make a further record of people's sigs, help guard them against mitm and other nefariousness. but as davout points out, now the bot needs a key. | [21:55] |
PeterL | did it not have a key before? | [21:55] |
mircea_popescu | which makes shit more complicated. however, it also makes shit perhaps better defensible ? i dunno. | [21:55] |
mircea_popescu | nah. | [21:55] |
davout | i don't really see a use for that | [21:56] |
davout | and if the signature on the blob is required only for access control, maybe it's be better to leverage asswot's functionality directly | [21:57] |
mircea_popescu | davout nah, it's required for inclusion in bthe actual deed. | [21:57] |
davout | as in 'wanna timestamp some stuff? fine, verify with and otp" | [21:57] |
mircea_popescu | for later ppl to be able to verify at home. | [21:57] |
davout | say i want to timestamp a contract i made with someone also in the L2 group as nested clearsigns, i doesn't really matter which signature is checked by deedbot, right? | [22:02] |
davout | nah, scratch that | [22:02] |
mircea_popescu | it only checks outer. | [22:03] |
davout | yeah well, i wanted to point out that it didn't really prevent anyone from checking the inner sig at home | [22:03] |
davout | i just fail to see a good reason to make the signatures mandatory, outside of access control that is | [22:04] |

mircea_popescu | so that someone in 3714, with nothing but an inscription of deedbot's deeds, can verify our contracts just as well as we can. | [22:04] |
mircea_popescu | this is the point of notarization : making the acts of men equal to the acts of god. | [22:05] |
asciilifeform | unless key factored <= 3714 | [22:05] |
asciilifeform | not god quite yet. | [22:06] |
davout | maybe we'll want to timestamp something else than contracts is what i'm thinking | [22:06] |
mircea_popescu | asciilifeform factorization trivially defeated by better key putting it into record :( | [22:06] |
mircea_popescu | :) i mean | [22:06] |
asciilifeform | gotta be alive to upgrade keys | [22:07] |
asciilifeform | ozymandias - won't. | [22:07] |
PeterL | you can timestamp whatever you want, as long as gpg signed first | [22:07] |
davout | that's how is spec'd yes :-) | [22:08] |
mircea_popescu | asciilifeform no but suppose your 4kb key is factorized. this matter is discovered by joe on june 19th, 3211. he signs, with his 64kb key, a note saying so. | [22:09] |
mircea_popescu | now, come 3714, it will be clear that uses ulterior to 3211 are null. but it will also be clear that uses prior to say, 3200 will still hold | [22:09] |
mircea_popescu | davout that's how it goes, why not. | [22:10] |
asciilifeform | well yes, in that case joe is, so to speak, trimming the weeds on your monument. | [22:10] |
mircea_popescu | yup | [22:10] |
davout | asciilifeform: also if you see a message signed with your key, and timestamped 200 years after your first timestamped message you can reasonably assumed it's been broken | [22:11] |
asciilifeform | davout: lol, but what kind of idiot would do that | [22:12] |
davout | say i timestamp sth in 2014 | [22:12] |
davout | any timestamping after 2114 is null and void, problem solves itself | [22:13] |
