* mircea_popescu just put to oven a duck! on cabbage! [16:44]
diana_coman: awww, did the duckling see it? [16:45]
mircea_popescu: yes actually. [16:46]
diana_coman: trauma!! [16:46]
mircea_popescu: it seems to think the whole hullaballoo was for it! [16:46]
mircea_popescu: "oh, these big ducks, fixing me the best worm yet!!" [16:46]
mircea_popescu: re http://ossasepia.com/2018/11/22/smg-comms-chapter-9-files-transfers-and-requests/#selection-41.799-41.846 diana_coman you know we ~could~ do this. "all filenames are 32 characters long followed by a dot and 3 character extension". what's to keep us, filenames only exist as server declares them anyway. [16:55]
deedbot: http://bimbo.club/?p=86 << Bimbo.Club - Hold up, you wont understand. [16:56]
mircea_popescu: in other related matters : i'm authorizing her to add a patch on s.mg crypto lib, to permit arbitrary size e. i recall the threads at the time, but there's a ~really~ good reason to do it : we don't want to pass back and forth kbs worth of exponents. udp packets are small, and there's all the complicated matchwork of sizes meeting keys etc. [16:57]
diana_coman: mircea_popescu, fixed-length strings get rid of all sorts of ugh pretty much everywhere this being said, I can't quite tell what we need as filenames and recall that they include the path - I think that's the main reason why it will still be variable [16:58]
mircea_popescu: fuck. [16:59]
mircea_popescu: DAMN YOU UNIX [16:59]
mircea_popescu: diana_coman i am tempted to ditch paths. [16:59]
diana_coman: I can certainly see the temptation I'd say there is still time to chew on this, as it's not yet burning [17:00]
mircea_popescu: the data is structured anyway for the program, there's no absolute requirement to ship it with storage adnotations. [17:00]
mircea_popescu: of course, no paths means there's a 16k limit or so on files or w/e nonsense it was ... [17:00]
mircea_popescu: incidentally, to continue the related thread of http://btcbase.org/log/2018-11-16#1872694 -- what is the difference between ./a/b/file.txt and /ab/file.txt ? RIGHT ? [17:02]
a111: Logged on 2018-11-16 00:27 mircea_popescu: who THE FUCK thought it's ok for the fs to not take arbitrary indices, like, ever, in the whole thirty seconds history of sitting-here-quietly-and-thinking-abnout-computers as it stretches from 1971 onwards. [17:02]
BingoBoingo: <mircea_popescu> "oh, these big ducks, fixing me the best worm yet!!" << Nice predator instincts [19:41]
mircea_popescu: ikr. [19:50]
mircea_popescu: it literally is like a velociraptor with a beak, that thing. [19:50]
BingoBoingo: Duckling is best baby easter animal. Much better than fucking rabbits. [20:09]
BingoBoingo: Maybe a gossling would be the step up, but when it's a 10 kg goose likely to die at your hand for insufficient adorability to aggress in the manner of geese [20:19]
