asciilifeform back to the microdot, [00:08]
asciilifeform b&w photography is ULTRA EASY [00:09]
asciilifeform even in JUNGLE CONDITIONS [00:09]
phf i periodically revisit his page for inspiration, but i suspect that's he's probably some form of northern european anarcho leftist, which now's been fashionable long enough to perhaps swing back to fascism again. in other words he will probably find b-a rhetoric toxic. but i'm guessing from spending much time with other members of that crowd [00:09]
asciilifeform it is the caustics, heavy metals, cleanroom, etc. that suck donkey cock [00:09]
phf for all i know he wear leather boots and listens to martial industrial.. [00:09]
asciilifeform but these possibly can be commoditized into a thing that contains no logic as such [00:09]
asciilifeform but simply takes a piece of film. [00:09]
asciilifeform phf: actually i see him as something more like a lacan who dropped out of physics, or the like [00:10]
mod6 hanbot: hi, cool. probably would have to go back to at least the beginning of this whole hard/soft fork discussion i'd think. [00:11]
punkman "We didn’t see any of this happening,” Ramos said. “They’re saying Michael wanted to kill himself. We just don’t know.” She said that Michael Ford’s mother suffered a heart attack after police in Prince George’s burst into her house to search it following the shooting and that she is now at the same hospital as her son." << we just don't know, lol [00:12]
asciilifeform that makes ... 2? 3? usg-authored corpses in the case now ? [00:13]
asciilifeform 4 ? [00:13]
punkman oh wait I misread heart attack before station shooting [00:13]
mod6 anyway, think it over for a bit. i'll get some coins into the foundation in a few days and then will try to write something up that can be signed. [00:13]
phf "if i cut the tape, he realized, my world will disappear. reality will continue for others, but not for me. because my reality, my universe, is coming to me from this minuscule unit. fed into the scanner and then into my central nervous system as it snailishly unwinds." [00:13]
asciilifeform aha! [00:15]
punkman speakinf of film, I've thought of doing backups on microfilm reels. Small reel holds 5k A4 pages or something. [00:19]
asciilifeform punkman: not sure if i ever viewed a microfilm reel without blots [00:21]
asciilifeform i suppose you could 'turbo code' it (m of n) [00:21]
asciilifeform sorta like folks used to do with cassettes. [00:21]
punkman yeah, some redundancy in the data, plus compression, then OCR [00:22]
punkman which should also work on paper [00:22]
punkman (I mean printed A4 pages) [00:22]
punkman "At 42X Reduction, a 215 ft. Roll of Archive Microfilm will hold approximately 12,300 images" [00:24]

mircea_popescu asciilifeform to round up yest's discussion of intelligence : if your putative beast that eats its brain does so in an actual maximum point, then the behaviour of eating the brain is intelligent ; if however it does so in a local maximum point that is later within its lifetime invalidated by events, then the same exact behaviour was unintelligent. [10:44]
mircea_popescu this underscores the principal point about intelligence, which is to say that it is an ex post facto construction outside the object, and consequently it can not either be objective, or objectively measured. [10:45]
mircea_popescu considered in general, "naturally" which is to say over an universal domain, "intelligence" is meaningless. [10:45]
mircea_popescu will may give restrictions of domain upon which an intelligence function may be constructed so it's coherent, but this then doesn't provide a method to justify the will upon which the whole construction is based. [10:46]
mircea_popescu this is the fundamental problem of ethics, that you can't have an intelligent justification of will, merely a willful justification of intelligence. [10:46]
mircea_popescu and this is why neither ethics nor iqs are a thing. [10:47]

davout that would be three-fold: not charge more than a few percent for the whole liquidation, evaluate all claims against bitbet in light of its actual contract (and more specifically, the 3.2 (d) clause), try to get as much as possible from the non-cash assets, and (quite importantly) not disappear with the cash [10:56]

mircea_popescu and if i hire an immigrant irishman as a carpenter, that STILL means he's gonna carpent in fucking new york, not that i'm paying his passage back to dublin to make me some doors and window frames there. wtf. [12:44]
mircea_popescu danielpbarron let's work an example. say the nonce is 7. this means hash1=f(header+7) and hash2 = g(digest(7)+7) [12:46]
mircea_popescu if in fact a shift by 2 was in effect, it'd be the case that hash1=f(header+7) and hash2 = g(digest(1)+1) [12:47]
mircea_popescu hash2 would have been the same for all nonces over 3, ie, 4, 5, 6 and 7. it'd have also been the same for all nonces under 4, ie, 0, 1, 2 and 3. [12:47]
mircea_popescu this means you get to do 4 old style hashings for each new style digest you calculate. [12:47]
mircea_popescu this because 2 bits = 2^2 = 4. had the shift been 17 bits, then you'd get to do 2^17 = 131072 old style hashings for each new style digest you calculate. [12:49]
danielpbarron how do you get to 1 from a shift of 2 away from 7? [12:49]
mircea_popescu 7 is 111 in binary. [12:49]
mircea_popescu 0111 shifted 2 is 0001 [12:49]

mircea_popescu danielpbarron you know, it occurs to me your idea to run a webserver on pogo may actually be very valuable. [14:03]
mircea_popescu see if you manage to apply alf's thing and if it runs well. if it does, a next step you can take is : [14:04]
mircea_popescu see if your isp is willing to give you a c block / upgrade your connection. buy a coupla bridges of 32 or 64, make a high voltage rectifier thingee, and power a bunch of boxes [14:04]
mircea_popescu people would prolly be willing to pay a few dollars /mo to rent an ACTUAL physical box, which means you can take a few hundred in exchange for a not-unreasonable upfront expenditure. [14:05]
mircea_popescu and since you have the wot at your disposal most of the costs involved in low end hosting (ie, keeping the scum out) you're insulated from. [14:06]
mircea_popescu if it can run an obscure wp blog, it certainly can run a bnc or whatever other such thing. much better security model than "i pay 20 dollars to dc hosted blabla-freedom.net" [14:07]
danielpbarron yeah i got another pogo doing my irc client; it was also doing my old non-wp website [14:11]
mircea_popescu (by a high voltage rectifier thingee i mean that iirc pogos draw 4.5 V dc. a > kv rectifier diode is twenty bucks or something, you can make yourself an item you plug into the wall and it feeds 100 pogos arranged in series out of maybe a hundy.) [14:11]
danielpbarron actually the irc one is the lesser non-sata pogo [14:11]
danielpbarron using an sd card for the userland, and in two cases both had the filesystem corrupted, which is why I had to try it on my sata-style pogo [14:12]

mircea_popescu the problem with safewords isn't that they're in-band to any degree. the problem with safewords is that they pretend to recast s/M relationships into a circus approximation. the submissive partner may not pretend to option as to when, or as to how the dominant partner extracts his pleasure out of his hide ; nor may (ipso facto inept) third parties purport to misrepresent any sexual relationship in terms other than stuf [18:50]
mircea_popescu f occurring between a submissive and a dominant partner. [18:50]
mircea_popescu "sex with safewords" is sex exactly in the sense the guy playing king richard in a theatrical production is king richard, the historical personage. "sex with safewords" is at best a brat's wet dream, and in general prostitution, in the vein of the pedicurist or hospital nurse's job - but in no case has anything to do with sex, nor can it occur among sane adults. [18:50]
mircea_popescu it's what children do when they want to play house but are affraid of getting caught. [18:50]

mircea_popescu this argument is still open. i certainly see what you mean. [19:03]
mircea_popescu but in the end, there's only one band. [19:04]
mircea_popescu the concept of identifiably separate bands is as much a presumption about the "adversary" (properly said, of the context) as anything else. [19:06]
* joecool has quit (Ping timeout: 248 seconds) [19:07]
mircea_popescu notably, the derpy gnupg manual indicates "telephone" as a out-of-band mechanism to verify key fingerprints. is this so ? since when until when ? did it work back when phones were still analog ? does it work now ? why / why not ? etc. [19:07]
asciilifeform header says 'next 1,001 bytes is payload' and NOBODY ASKS PAYLOAD ANYTHING - is like proper sex. [19:07]
asciilifeform magic character escape idiocies, a la clearsign, is 'safeword sex.' [19:07]
mircea_popescu this i can get behind. [19:08]
asciilifeform payload is a passive thing. [19:08]
asciilifeform which is what i've been arguing for all along. [19:08]
mircea_popescu but it is also subtly different from the general band discussion. [19:08]
asciilifeform constraining the contents of the payload is evil. [19:08]
mircea_popescu so no crc for you ? [19:08]
asciilifeform and so is making the unwrapper stateful. [19:09]
asciilifeform crc is a header thing. [19:09]
mircea_popescu mno, crc is part of the payload ? [19:09]
asciilifeform nope./ [19:09]
asciilifeform it is a function ~of~ the payload. [19:09]
mircea_popescu i suppose it necessarily can be put in the header huh. [19:09]
asciilifeform the latter can be arbitrary. [19:09]
mircea_popescu myeah, ok. [19:09]
asciilifeform the -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- crud is ~exactly~ a safeword. [19:10]
asciilifeform and especially so are the - ----- idiocies. [19:10]
asciilifeform and the winblowzated newlines. [19:10]
mircea_popescu hey, i'm not defending any of that. [19:11]
asciilifeform that's what clearsign is ! [19:11]
asciilifeform you necessarily cannot have it without such things. [19:11]
mircea_popescu why not ? put a proper fucking header in there! [19:11]
mircea_popescu this is where we left this discussion last time! [19:11]
asciilifeform does fat lot of good given that just about all software mutilates line endings. [19:12]
mircea_popescu here. first line, the line index where signature begins. second line, the line index where payload begins. third line, the line count of the whole shebang. [19:12]
mircea_popescu done. [19:12]
mircea_popescu this is no excuse. fuck bad software. [19:12]
mircea_popescu i will NOT take bad implementations of ANYTHING into consideration when designing anything. [19:12]
asciilifeform mircea_popescu: i distinctly recall suggesting a scheme quite like this. [19:13]
mircea_popescu otherwise it's two steps to "but mp, some people are stupid, what should they do!" [19:13]
asciilifeform it pointedly does NOT cover the case of signing non-printables. [19:13]
mircea_popescu "fuck them, cook them and serve them to the pigs. fuck i care." [19:13]
mircea_popescu asciilifeform there may not exist "nonprintables". as per your own theory! [19:13]
asciilifeform i wanna sign a tarball. or gif. now what. [19:13]
asciilifeform non-7bitclean. [19:13]
asciilifeform where there are no 'lines'. [19:14]
mircea_popescu hash it and sign that. [19:14]
asciilifeform no good. [19:14]
asciilifeform we end up signing a hash of a human-readable hash [19:15]
mircea_popescu huh ? [19:15]
asciilifeform think. [19:17]
asciilifeform you are narrowing your set. [19:17]
asciilifeform which, in the case of a wonderful thing like keccak, is entirely no good. [19:17]
asciilifeform and even in the case of sha2 is a waste. [19:18]
asciilifeform it is entirely like whitening. [19:18]
mircea_popescu i'm not about to give out the only workable way to make contracts since the fucking hansa [19:18]
mircea_popescu so some shitboxes can do things with "code". [19:18]
asciilifeform who said 'give out' [19:18]
asciilifeform just has to be planted in a sane framework [19:18]
mircea_popescu how are you going to preserve my clearsign ? [19:18]
asciilifeform rather than the mutilatory lunacy. [19:18]
asciilifeform mircea_popescu: same way we preserve anything, you gotta figure out what aspects are actually essential to the thing, and which - are really accidents [19:18]
mircea_popescu i can tell you. the text and the seal in the same place. [19:19]
asciilifeform what means 'same place'. [19:19]
mircea_popescu so no conveyance of one is possible without the other. [19:19]
asciilifeform this is not actually true of gpg clearsign [19:19]
asciilifeform i.e. any idiot can cut off the sig and convey payload without it [19:19]
asciilifeform and ditto the opposite [19:20]
mircea_popescu sure. any idiot can also cut off his head. so ? [19:20]
asciilifeform but what specifically do you mean here [19:20]
asciilifeform how is this a possible thing at all ? [19:20]
mircea_popescu this "separate signature" thing is an abomination. [19:20]
asciilifeform the signature is always physically separate [19:20]
asciilifeform though hm [19:21]
mircea_popescu in the sense your ballsac is physically separtate from your penis. [19:21]
mircea_popescu anyway, i'm going to speak at a whore's convention. will bbl. [19:21]
mircea_popescu hopefully. [19:21]
asciilifeform actually! [19:21]
asciilifeform distribute the exponentiated payload !111111 [19:21]
asciilifeform ding. [19:21]
asciilifeform solved. [19:21]
asciilifeform tell it to the whores!1111 [19:21]
asciilifeform however you cannot cat this to a line printer. [19:25]
asciilifeform but NOTHING YOU CAN CAT TO LINE PRINTER IS BALLSACK-ATTACHED [19:25]
asciilifeform this is intrinsic. [19:25]
asciilifeform and pretending otherwise is lunacy. [19:25]
asciilifeform a non-signed item is trivially derived from any signed item. [19:26]
asciilifeform pretending otherwise is what the idiot watermark folks do. [19:26]
asciilifeform !s what color are your bits [19:26]
assbot 2 results for 'what color are your bits' : http://s.b-a.link/?q=what+color+are+your+bits [19:26]
asciilifeform ^ and copyrasts, etc. [19:26]

asciilifeform jurov: this solves nothing, it merely flips the problem on its head [19:59]
asciilifeform how does the pgptron know how big the signature is ? [19:59]
asciilifeform let's say it is at the end. [19:59]
asciilifeform this is just as problematic as agreeing that it is in the beginning of the file! [20:00]
asciilifeform i get it, you can 'dwim' in your head, 'my eyes know how big it is' - but how does THE MACHINE know. [20:00]
jurov this is unsolved problem? [20:01]
asciilifeform this is not a trivial problem, and it has popped up in the past in various guises [20:01]
asciilifeform e.g., the old mac os had dual-forked file system [20:01]
asciilifeform where there was a separate body for 'metadata' and another for what we think of as the file [20:02]
asciilifeform this was, iirc, abolished (though it reappeared in a perverted form in winblowz ntfs) [20:02]
asciilifeform in unix file has name, but also, as everyone knows, epochal date and access perms [20:02]
* assbot removes voice from gabrielradio [20:03]
asciilifeform these are 'special' in the sense that fs stores them in designated places [20:03]
asciilifeform it is not any more or less retarded than the old mac os forks. [20:03]
asciilifeform but notice, at no point (since the dark ibm mainframe days anyway) did anyone suggest storing the access time, or perms, IN THE FILE proper [20:03]
asciilifeform because this is RETARDED [20:03]
* rdymac has quit (Quit: Connection closed for inactivity) [20:04]
asciilifeform you can't magic away the 'metadata' thing just by closing your eyes to it. [20:04]
asciilifeform it is an actual thing. [20:04]
jurov m$ office and their ilk does [20:04]
asciilifeform the clinically sad are no concern of mine. [20:04]
asciilifeform 'feed'em to pigz' as mircea_popescu said. [20:04]
jurov so your only "solution" is to force whole world to switch from bags of bytes to structured data? [20:06]
asciilifeform what switch. [20:06]
asciilifeform we already have structure. [20:06]
asciilifeform i propose - SANE STRUCTURE [20:06]
asciilifeform picture fs with a way to attach seals, say [20:06]
asciilifeform instead of idiocies like access time [20:06]
asciilifeform (it isn't useless, but a whole chunk of fs for them?!1) [20:07]
jurov xattrs do exist [20:07]
jurov but we're taling about exchanging stuff over internet [20:07]
jurov *talking [20:07]
asciilifeform aha and for that we do binary formats [20:07]
asciilifeform but mircea_popescu wants his fried ice [20:07]
asciilifeform i.e. something he can cat to a line printer [20:07]
asciilifeform ( ... and then somehow type back in, and have the sig pass ??????) [20:08]
asciilifeform incidentally anybody who actually tries the latter with pgp, is stuck with mutilated line endings [20:08]
asciilifeform because - guess what - a CR/LF, LF, or CR - LOOK THE SAME on the page. [20:09]
asciilifeform and every time i try to explain to him that his notion of 'text' is ill-defined and the actual mechanics, as implemented in unix world and elsewhere, are malignantly retarded [20:10]
jurov i guess he wants to sign semantics, not syntax. [20:10]
asciilifeform then he ought sign s-expressions. [20:11]
asciilifeform where the thing actually gets parsed out before the bignums are exponentiated [20:11]
asciilifeform so, e.g., spaces, are not represented as merely a byte but a #Space [20:12]
asciilifeform this is the ultimate in 'in-band'. mega-ugly. [20:12]
jurov no, he wants everything converted to plain english. maybe even 5-bit code without support for newline characters. [20:13]
jurov and then sign that [20:13]
asciilifeform any way you cut it, trying to use a naked unix terminal for this is lunacy [20:14]
