| BingoBoingo: | Some China from the mines: The father sat reflecting on how much joy his two sons brought to him during the year. He decided to buy them both the present of their choice this holiday season. When he asked his older boy what he would like, the son replied, Oh boy, I would like so many things. Maybe a bicycle, or new skis, or skin diving equipment. I wish I would have them all, but any one would make me happy. | [00:56] |
| BingoBoingo: | That was fine with the father, he now had some good choices. Next, he turned to his younger son, who was only eight years old. The boy envied his brother for all the games he could play and all of the sports he could do so well. When asked what he would like, he made one simple request. I would like a box of Tampax Tampons. The father was shocked, What in the world do you want a box of tampons for? he demanded angrily. The po | [00:56] |
| BingoBoingo: | or boy, not knowing he had said something wrong, answered, With Tampax, you can swim, ski, sky dive, horseback ride and play any sport you want. | [00:56] |

| BingoBoingo: | Haven't heard it | [17:00] |
| mircea_popescu: | so there's a bunch of various people gangsta as fuck at the poker room of this casino of this retirement community that had originally been built in what was a us state but meanwhile was lost in some desert. | [17:01] |
| mircea_popescu: | there's an ex-kgb ex-plutocrat dude there's an ex-yale ex-vc dude there's this dude used to run arms for rice in somalia and finally there's a rapper dude. | [17:01] |
| mircea_popescu: | so they keep you know, fucking around, telling each other stories from back in their respective days | [17:02] |
| mircea_popescu: | and eventually they decide to go for a ride in the desert | [17:02] |
| mircea_popescu: | as an adventure, like. | [17:02] |
| mircea_popescu: | except they're all old and inept and ineffectual, they take this "suv" that's really running on a qcw-50 engine and take no water and whatever. | [17:03] |
| mircea_popescu: | so a coupla hours later they're fucking stranded, and about to die, when this genie shows up | [17:03] |
| mircea_popescu: | and the genie's all "of all the dumb fucks wandering in here ever since the injuns figured out how to half'n'half a buffalo, you're easiest the dumbest fucks" | [17:04] |
| mircea_popescu: | "why you're so dumb i'd be loath to separate you from humanity. here, say where you each wanna go and i'll take you there, as an act of mercy (for you)". | [17:04] |
| mircea_popescu: | so you know, one goes back to moscow, the other goes back to wherever the fuck | [17:04] |
| mircea_popescu: | finally, rapper's turn. "what about you ?" | [17:05] |
| mircea_popescu: | "well... all my friends are gone...i'm so lonely... listen, why don't you bring them back to me ?" | [17:05] |
| shinohai: | (-__-) | [17:08] |
| asciilifeform: | lel | [17:10] |
| BingoBoingo: | lol | [17:10] |
| mircea_popescu: | o btw asciilifeform wanna hear my inept symmetric encryption scheme ? | [17:10] |
| asciilifeform: | aha? | [17:10] |
| mircea_popescu: | select a, b and c and take N=(a + sqrt(b)) / c so that N > 1 N < 2. for any message M, deflate, crc and split it up in two fragments a b so that neither is larger than 2/3 of M to encrypt calculate a^N*b b^N*a and pass those. | [17:12] |
| asciilifeform: | a,b,c,N integers? | [17:14] |
| mircea_popescu: | a b and c integers. N no way. | [17:14] |
| asciilifeform: | ah yeah | [17:14] |
| asciilifeform: | so what is N physically? | [17:14] |
| mircea_popescu: | the idea being that in principle there should exist a set a b c so as to turn any encrypted text into ~any text you wish it to be | [17:15] |
| mircea_popescu: | N is a small irrational. | [17:15] |
| asciilifeform: | yes but how is it sat down physically | [17:15] |
| mircea_popescu: | as a f(a,b,c) ? | [17:15] |
| mircea_popescu: | or ? | [17:15] |
| asciilifeform: | as an a,b,c triplet of integers ? | [17:15] |
| mircea_popescu: | yea | [17:15] |
| asciilifeform: | this is similar to 'encrypting' using offsets into pi. | [17:16] |
| mircea_popescu: | well it's algebraic | [17:17] |
| asciilifeform: | numerically manipulating irrationals is not any more algebraic than diddling pi. | [17:17] |
| mircea_popescu: | tru | [17:17] |
| mircea_popescu: | just saying, it's going to be either equations or else... "boxes" or wtf. | [17:18] |
| mircea_popescu: | that's what aes did to try and escape "oh it's just maff", "fine we'll implement control structures". | [17:18] |
| asciilifeform: | snake oil with 1,001 ingredients of great rarity and exquisite alchemical aesthetic is still... snake oil. | [17:19] |
| mircea_popescu: | right. which is what i'm saying : if you're into ditching snake oil, you'll have to come to equations. | [17:19] |
| asciilifeform: | noshit.jpg | [17:19] |
| asciilifeform: | but it'll have to be a) something you can actually do repeatably on a digital computer + b) based on some reasonably compact hardness assumption | [17:20] |
| mircea_popescu: | now in principle if P, Q are the encrypted chunks, (P/Q)^(1/(N-1)) and (Q/P)^(1/(N-1)) yields the message. | [17:20] |
| mircea_popescu: | and these trivially have any roots you wish them to have if you parametrize N | [17:21] |
| asciilifeform: | (we have no crypto based on provably-hard cases of provably-hard problem. we have ~some~ crypto based on lousy cases of suspected-hard problem. we have MEGATONNES of crapto based on fuck knows what fuck knows whether problem at all.) | [17:21] |
| asciilifeform: | mircea_popescu: in order for above to hold true, N must have equal 'mass' to M | [17:22] |
| asciilifeform: | and you have reinvented otp !! | [17:22] |
| mircea_popescu: | fine. CLOSE ENOUGH! | [17:22] |
| asciilifeform: | all roadz lead to otp. | [17:22] |
| asciilifeform: | possibly because it is the one item which actually works with no ifs, ands, buts. | [17:22] |
| asciilifeform: | butyoucan'tsignwithit. | [17:22] |
| mircea_popescu: | still. N could be something like 3kb and the scheme'd be still workable. | [17:22] |
| asciilifeform: | ends up reducing to difficulty of discrete log problem | [17:23] |
| asciilifeform: | same as dh, elgamal, cramershoup. | [17:23] |
| mircea_popescu: | mno, because you don't actually have something to solve. | [17:24] |
| asciilifeform: | in ANY case other than otp, you have something to solve. | [17:24] |
| mircea_popescu: | suppose you know P and Q. ok. what now ? you can't actually calculate N. | [17:24] |
| asciilifeform: | if 1 message. | [17:24] |
| asciilifeform: | if 2+ - can solve. | [17:24] |
| asciilifeform: | because trivially 2 points. | [17:24] |
| asciilifeform: | this is again true of any system that isn't otp. | [17:24] |
| mircea_popescu: | even if 2 messages. | [17:24] |
| mircea_popescu: | i've not done the actual math, per N size, but there's entire classes of messages that "could" work. you won't get enough precision until you have MANY messages. | [17:25] |
| asciilifeform: | in practice you get 1 'yes this is an actual message' and maxint turds. | [17:26] |
| asciilifeform: | just like hash collisions. | [17:26] |
| mircea_popescu: | no because deflate and crc. | [17:26] |
| mircea_popescu: | CRC! it's supposed to be lossy. deliberately. | [17:26] |
| asciilifeform: | what's lossy here ? | [17:26] |
| mircea_popescu: | weaponized, this would fuck up say 1 in 20 messages it'd be so taut. | [17:26] |
| mircea_popescu: | asciilifeform rounds P, Q to some degree. | [17:26] |
| asciilifeform: | seems like mircea_popescu is reinventing 'padding', that is, dilating message space | [17:28] |
| mircea_popescu: | well not reinventing, but obviously will be needed for any practical scheme. | [17:28] |
| asciilifeform: | it isn't magic - you can still distinguish plausible cyphertexts from rubbish, it just takes more cycles. | [17:28] |
| mircea_popescu: | yeah. but this is a lot more expensive sort of cycling than you know, hashing. | [17:29] |
| mircea_popescu: | course i guess that's all happenstance, nsa starts building long divisor processors. | [17:29] |
| asciilifeform: | you can trivially do it in any ciphersystem by shamir-splitting message into K fragments of which you need J | [17:29] |
| asciilifeform: | and sending the lot. | [17:29] |
| asciilifeform: | as noisily as you like. | [17:29] |
| mircea_popescu: | or this. | [17:29] |
| asciilifeform: | method is ages old. | [17:30] |
| asciilifeform: | and everybody pretty much uses fpga clusters for actual cryptoanalysis anyway. so elaborate 'let's zap the miners' trickery is ~pointless. | [17:30] |
| asciilifeform: | you want actual hard trapdoor problems. | [17:30] |
| asciilifeform: | if they even exist. | [17:30] |
| mircea_popescu: | yeah well, i dun have THAT. | [17:31] |
| asciilifeform: | i still can't fully swallow how there is this entire field that isn't certain whether it exists or is simply smelling own farts. | [17:32] |
| mircea_popescu: | has ~same problem as physics. | [17:32] |
| asciilifeform: | far worse. | [17:32] |
| asciilifeform: | picture if every time 'mars didn't rise on schedule' ALL BRIDGES FELL. | [17:33] |
| mircea_popescu: | http://btcbase.org/log/2015-10-07#1294009 << this being the reason. | [17:33] |
| a111: | Logged on 2015-10-07 13:41 mircea_popescu realises that probably no one else's light went off when alf was getting all excited about vmath that what he was seeing really was "omfg, usable molecular chem." | [17:33] |
| asciilifeform: | i find it also very interesting that all aes-like ('boxes') cryptosystems are direct descendants of rotor machines. which were known to be pseudoscientific even when first built, as vernam existed | [17:37] |
| asciilifeform: | but 'omg!1111111 inconvenient!11111 can't reuse key!11' | [17:37] |
| mircea_popescu: | it's because there's no option : either algebra or else "control structures". | [17:37] |
| asciilifeform: | or otp. | [17:37] |
| jurov: | can't we abuse polynomial roots somehow for proven trapdoor function? Like, Abel–Ruffini theorem proves you can't solve certain polynomials algebraically | [17:37] |
| asciilifeform: | jurov: easy trap to fall in | [17:38] |
| mircea_popescu: | jurov if we could i wish i knew it. | [17:38] |
| asciilifeform: | see thread about 'particular cases' | [17:38] |
| asciilifeform: | all that anybody ever proved is that you can't solve ALL CASES of something. | [17:38] |
| asciilifeform: | particular case can be as simple as you like. | [17:38] |
| asciilifeform: | and often you have 0 control of this when generating key. | [17:38] |
| asciilifeform: | which is why there are entire encyclopaedias of np-complete problems, but none of them have been used in a working cryptosystem | [17:39] |
| mircea_popescu: | though some material recently linked made a very good point : "np complete" and other hardness discussions aren't even meaningful here. the term refers to WORST CASE, not to average case or anything. | [17:39] |
| asciilifeform: | one simple example that i played with in the winter is 'graph clique problem' | [17:39] |
| mircea_popescu: | saying "x is np hard" is like saying "the us is rich". everyone you meet there is still fucking poor. | [17:40] |
| asciilifeform: | ^ | [17:40] |
| asciilifeform: | mircea_popescu gets it. | [17:40] |
| mircea_popescu: | so we likely need to re-do the hardness measurements anyway, from a crypto pov to use it in a crypto pov. | [17:41] |
| asciilifeform: | it is not remotely enough that problem is hard in ~general case~, you have to be able to ascertain that ~your particular case~ is hard. | [17:41] |
| asciilifeform: | you need an avg case proof. | [17:41] |
| asciilifeform: | and even this does not necessarily suffice. | [17:41] |
| mircea_popescu: | the current discussion is from a "in house algebraicist" considering his job, "what's the worst that can come up when the suits decide to solve X" | [17:41] |
| mircea_popescu: | but, that said : the principles to be built upon are exactly the "well, i can solve this any way you want" said the cracker to eve. hence, stuff like polynomial roots are very respectable idea. | [17:42] |
| asciilifeform: | in practice opponent ~always~ knows something about the message space. | [17:42] |
| asciilifeform: | the only genuine 'can solve in ANY way' is in otp. | [17:43] |
| asciilifeform: | where the space is ENTIRELY flat. | [17:44] |
| mircea_popescu: | that's the bitch now innit. that's at least what i was longfaced about earlier, "in practical eavesdropping you don't EVER care about message integrity. if your algebraic cyrptosystem is porous to someone saying "bring me all messages that discuss ALEODOR" or whatever, and then he can discern something about them - say that ALL possible forms of one use it in the negative - you're still as fucked as a three year old in a pedo | [17:44] |
| mircea_popescu: | bath." | [17:44] |
| mircea_popescu: | and there's absolutely no way that i can guarantee when drawing up the math of the cypher, that "all uses of symbol X will always be ambiguous in the space" or w/e dumb shit. | [17:45] |
| mircea_popescu: | which is starting to explain how chinese ended up chinese rather than a proper language. | [17:45] |
| mircea_popescu: | http://btcbase.org/log/2016-06-06#1477594 << is this the new dekulakization ? "oh, prof sanders didn't even do anything, it was black women all along" ? | [17:46] |
