mircea_popescu: asciilifeform awww lol y teh haet! dude's trying. [12:45]
* mircea_popescu was even gonna reply to his reply, then noticed the google thing and recalled why he hasn't been commenting, something /me was vaguely wondering about [12:46]
mircea_popescu: aaand in other news, i just managed to link TWO DOZEN trilema articles from this latest one. i think that takes the cake. [12:54]

asciilifeform: ohai mircea_popescu ! [13:05]
mats: ugh, at a conf where a fed is pimping ‘trusona’, some biometric nonsense, and telling folks to shitcan passwords [13:05]
mats: no mention of rsa [13:05]
mats: not sexy [13:05]
asciilifeform: mats: see also http://btcbase.org/log/2014-10-19#883672 and elsewhere. [13:07]
a111: Logged on 2014-10-19 18:39 asciilifeform: my hypothesis re: biometrics is, imho, the only one proposed so far that has explanatory power for the fact that idiotically lame, e.g., fingerprint readers, nevertheless are happily deployed en masse by usg [13:07]
mircea_popescu: hola [13:08]
mircea_popescu: mats hey, usg's been trying to shitcan the whole it security thing since day one. [13:08]
mats: admitting to the worthlessness of fingerprints would result in twenty year judicial backlog of reviews [13:08]
asciilifeform: 100+ yrs. [13:09]
asciilifeform: and 1e8 accused folx who are no longer half as intimidated into confession. [13:09]
asciilifeform: Would Be Wrong (tm)(r) [13:09]
mircea_popescu: there is no manner available currently of runing physical-space law&order without the fingerprint construct. [13:09]
asciilifeform: mod6, diana_coman , trinque , ben_vulpes , et al : lemme know if you were able to follow the ffa tutorial ch1. [13:11]
asciilifeform: and got the expected result. [13:11]
* diana_coman goes to read [13:11]
mircea_popescu: moreover, if you took a year's worth of court practice of your choice, listed all the inferences made in a sort of mega-AST and then sorted this list by tenuousness measured how you will, the fingerprint construct wouldn't make any sort of top. [13:11]
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: only because 'religious precept' and nobody even entertains the idea of a serious attack. [13:12]
mircea_popescu: all society works like this. [13:12]

mircea_popescu: dja like ? [13:35]
asciilifeform: 'I do believe it's better this way. She was bitterly sad every day of the last years' reminds asciilifeform of his (younger) grandfather, who narrowly missed the '90s [13:36]
mircea_popescu: kinda not so enamoured with the shoemeister ? [13:37]
mircea_popescu: (i find it amusing how all the later day soviet saints have some shoe reference readily accessible to be retrieved by) [13:37]
mod6: <+asciilifeform> mod6, diana_coman , trinque , ben_vulpes , et al : lemme know if you were able to follow the ffa tutorial ch1. <+asciilifeform> and got the expected result. << will take a look for sure. [13:37]
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: which shoemeister [13:37]
mircea_popescu: you recall, guy was at the un, took shoe off banged table. [13:38]
asciilifeform: that'd be hrusch [13:38]
asciilifeform: not the least bit '90s [13:38]
mircea_popescu: well yes. i took narrowly missing the 90s to mean he lived last days during khruschev's tenure [13:38]
asciilifeform: mno, died '91. [13:38]
mircea_popescu: a [13:38]
asciilifeform: hrusch 'retired' in '64 [13:39]
mircea_popescu: o shit, you're right. [13:39]
asciilifeform: but no, not fan of 'the marked man' [13:39]

mircea_popescu: phf is it double-wide intentionally ? [15:53]
phf: mircea_popescu: nope, it's a styling bug, which needs to be fixed, but i've been having hard time with it last time i tackled it (but i don't remember what was the issue, something related to tables and <pre>s) [15:54]
asciilifeform: waitasec wat's doublewide [15:55]

phf: http://btcbase.org/patches/ffa_ch1_genesis/tree/ffa/libffa/fz_arith.adb [16:01]
mircea_popescu: cocks useful routine. [16:02]
phf: makes code more readable [16:02]
mod6: where are the balls? [16:02]
mircea_popescu: i guess there should be a product COKCS [16:02]

asciilifeform: phf: spiffy [16:07]
mircea_popescu: phf future log readers can just search archive! [16:07]
shinohai: I feel happy to be a part of such a grand institution that goes out of the way to be so all-inclusive in the logs. [16:09]
phf: well, it's also only proper for a long running lisp system to have a *cocks-and-balls* global variable somewhere that subtly affects the behavior [16:11]
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform reading this backbreaker of an article i must say i r impresst. exactly what ffa needed, too. [16:12]
mircea_popescu: phf there is that. [16:12]
mircea_popescu: "fits in head". [16:12]
shinohai: head of cock precisely [16:12]

mircea_popescu: http://www.loper-os.org/?p=1913 i mean [16:14]
mircea_popescu: hey asciilifeform ! mp-wp has nice names for urls! [16:14]
mod6: ben_vulpes: you may want to update the link to my V in this blog post (http://cascadianhacker.com/07_v-tronics-101-a-gentle-introduction-to-the-most-serene-republic-of-bitcoins-cryptographically-backed-version-control-system) as it's old.

mod6: asciilifeform: you may want to update the link to my V in this blog post (http://www.loper-os.org/?p=1545) as it's old. This is the latest (from the foundation site): http://thebitcoin.foundation/v/V-20170317.tar.gz (and corresponding sig file): http://thebitcoin.foundation/v/V-20170317.tar.gz.mod6.sig [16:21]
mod6: If you to gentlemen would rather not update your blogs, please let me know and I'll post a comment at the bottom of each. [16:21]
mod6: s/to/two [16:21]
mod6: lol, asciilifeform ignore that. i already put a comment on your blog. [16:24]
ben_vulpes: go ahead and leave a comment, mod6 [16:24]
mod6: yup, will leave the same comment on yours, Sir. Thanks. [16:25]
mircea_popescu: you know it's not a great idea to leave live links to dead urls. [16:26]
* mircea_popescu recently went through his comment section, nulled out dead links. (you'd be surprised what survival rate of commenters pages is like) [16:26]
mircea_popescu: i looked at thousands of once-there, now deceased sites. pretty depressing as an incidental, facebook made people measurably dumber. [16:27]
asciilifeform: http://btcbase.org/log/2017-12-01#1745104 << my heathen one also has'em, but by the time i found out, it was too late, there is no built-in have-it-both-ways [16:27]
a111: Logged on 2017-12-01 21:14 mircea_popescu: hey asciilifeform ! mp-wp has nice names for urls! [16:27]
mircea_popescu: and in other wowz, alf's 2010 material is pretty fucking epic too! http://www.loper-os.org/?p=132 specifically. [16:27]
asciilifeform: ( and i have hardlinks everywhere, not only in own www, which'd be fixable, but all over heathendom ) [16:27]
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform mine has it both ways. [16:28]
asciilifeform: neato, i gotta crib it at some point. [16:28]
asciilifeform: lotta goodstuff in mp's wp. [16:28]
mod6: ben_vulpes: is there a comment approval process? I submitted the comment. [16:28]
asciilifeform: http://btcbase.org/log/2017-12-01#1745109 << waitasec mod6 where was this [16:29]

mod6: asciilifeform: http://www.loper-os.org/?p=1545 -- take a look at the last comment at the bottom. apparently on may 10th of this year. [16:30]
asciilifeform: http://btcbase.org/log/2017-12-01#1745114 << i deleted a few folx from my links bar earlier this yr, who turned out to have... actually died [16:30]

asciilifeform: was also depressing. [16:30]
asciilifeform: mod6: aa ok [16:30]
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform eg http://trilema.com/?p=76183 [16:30]
asciilifeform: neato. possibly only works if you had it going from the beginning ? ( or not. i'll check it out ) [16:31]
mircea_popescu: nobody ever has anything from the beginning. [16:31]
mircea_popescu: (and it also very usefully 302s, at that) [16:31]
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu et al : lemme know if obvious typos, gaps, or thing dunbuild, etc. [16:33]
mircea_popescu: i am reading. so far, this is a major achievement, and quite fundamental at that. [16:34]
mod6: I read the entire thing so far, and it looks great. I have droped the vpatch and sig into my V and pressed it out, which also worked great. [16:34]
asciilifeform: i sawed it into almost pathologically small jigsaw pieces. e.g. next episode concerns e.g. shifting. [16:34]
mircea_popescu: everything about it is good right and proper. [16:34]
asciilifeform: yay [16:34]
mircea_popescu: you are aware there exists no usable "learn to compute" item ANYWHERE ? [16:34]
mod6: I don't have an ada at my disposal atm. So will do an entire test of the thing tonight and post results as I have them (probably on my site). [16:34]
mircea_popescu: precisely because universities "became open" and "put online" their inept webcasts etc. [16:35]
asciilifeform: ( this is something like 3-4 yrs of sweat of asciilifeform , depending on from where we count, dates to original ctronic cardanolib ) [16:35]
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform it will conveniently double as many things. i will add it to the topic link later today. [16:35]
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: quite aware. the 1 src that turned out to be reliable reference, was knuth (i.e. a 1960s work) [16:35]
ben_vulpes: mod6: released [16:37]
phf: slightly better rendering (will work on padding widths sometime later) http://btcbase.org/patches/ffa_ch1_genesis/tree/ffa/ffademo/ffa_io.adb [16:37]
asciilifeform: oh hey looxgreat on lynx and on guitron [16:38]
phf: also there's a somewhat useful, though non-standard css property "user-select" that lets you select only the code part of the page [16:38]
asciilifeform: this is quite spiffy and shithub et al dun have it [16:38]
mircea_popescu: this apple piece makes for fabulous companion reading. [16:39]
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform that "older comments" thing is abominable. [16:39]
asciilifeform: ohyea ancient lulzpiece , iirc was in the l0gz at some point [16:39]
mircea_popescu: proper blog can load 1k comments. [16:39]
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: i dun think i ever got 1k comments, or near [16:40]
asciilifeform: but yes [16:40]
mircea_popescu: so then why "older comments" link bs [16:40]
asciilifeform: pretty much stock wp, almost exactly as it was in the bush presidency [16:40]
mircea_popescu: yes well it sucks. [16:40]
mod6: <+ben_vulpes> mod6: released << awesome thanks! [16:41]
mircea_popescu: his pragma list is longer than my penis [16:41]
asciilifeform: what it does is snippy-snippycut large chunks of the language. [16:42]
asciilifeform: forbids oop, uniturdism, threads and asynchrony of any form, constructs that require complex runtime support, 'unprincipled exceptions' (chiefly c-style type-casts), pointers (yes), and a few others [16:43]
asciilifeform: ... the heap. and in fact any form of allocation other than stackframe [16:44]
asciilifeform: floatingpoint. the 'catching' of exceptions. etc. [16:45]
asciilifeform: the 2 things i did not forbid (though wanted to) were recursion (can't... karatsuba) and implicit-loops (can't... array assignments) [16:45]
mircea_popescu: check out teh proof. yes. [16:46]
trinque: heads up to all, I'll be traveling from about 2.5hrs from now until sunday night. [16:47]
trinque: pls to send all withdrawal requests in now or wait til sun [16:47]

mod6: neato [17:40]
mircea_popescu: in other news nobody cares about, usg.state's main asset in romania looks well headed to jail. kovesi (special "anti-corruption prosecutor") lied about meeting various politicians (as part of usg embassy-directed http://btcbase.org/log/2017-11-28#1743878 scandal). [17:42]
a111: Logged on 2017-11-28 19:30 mircea_popescu: "don't vote for x, he not only would confiscate our constanta base BUT IS VERY CORRUPT" sorta bs. [17:42]

asciilifeform: *heart [17:50]
mircea_popescu: what is it even ? [17:50]
asciilifeform: prbism where you gotta tcp to somebody's box to pay him, or something of the kind [17:50]
asciilifeform: 'When a Payment Protocol wallet interacts with a Payment Protocol URL, it creates an SSL-secured connection to the true owner of the receiving bitcoin address (in this case, BitPay).' etc [17:51]
asciilifeform: sslism. [17:51]
mircea_popescu: so what, they'll pretend they didn't get paid with tx in the blockchgain ? [17:51]
asciilifeform: the excuse being 'We can also analyze transactions to make sure an adequate bitcoin miner fee is included. If the fee isn't sufficient to allow the transaction to confirm on the bitcoin network on time, BitPay can return a helpful message back to the wallet to let the user know. Mistaken payments will never reach the Bitcoin network.' [17:51]
mircea_popescu: seems unlikely, they're marginal as it is. [17:51]
asciilifeform: it's a resurrection of circa-2014 embraceandextendism -- 'let's impose prbtronic sslistic payment-via-tcp, and at the same time spam some moar spamola, make blox less breathable' [17:52]
asciilifeform: 'If you are using the BitPay, Copay, Mycelium, or Electrum wallets for your bitcoin payments, nothing will change. These true bitcoin wallets all already "speak" Payment Protocol. If you are using a non-Payment Protocol wallet or service to pay BitPay invoices, you will need to move your spending bitcoin to a wallet or service which can support Payment Protocol. We strongly recommend that you use a true bitcoin wallet for spending to [17:53]

asciilifeform: dunno that bitpay et al ever had the intention of making profit. [17:57]

mircea_popescu: hurr ? [18:01]

mircea_popescu: hey, soft forks upon soft forks, why the hell not. [18:01]
mircea_popescu: and in other lulz, new car theft method : drink a bottle of coca-cola, screw the tap back on, stick it in between wheel and chassis on parked car, wait for owner to get in and try to leave. the bottle will sound, the muppet will get out of the car to see, at which point you can just leave with it. [18:04]
asciilifeform: 'Customers with mistaken payments only receive partial refunds of the BTC they sent because of miner fee costs. One customer of a BitPay merchant recently spent 0.003853 BTC on a payment which was mistakenly underpaid by a small amount. They were only able to receive a refund of 0.002247 BTC. This is not the experience we want bitcoin users to have.' << 'use our gox or Lose It All!111' etc [18:04]

asciilifeform: or is idea that you whack'im over the head [18:05]
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform from the perspective of "we're trying to survive mp" it is perfectly understandable. miner fees per tx are rapidly growing to a size comparable to the "walmart one item cost", which is what bitpay & all are willy-nilly married to. [18:05]
mircea_popescu: they wanted smaller fees for a reason. [18:05]

asciilifeform: diana_coman: the trick to endian-agnostic mechanisms is to never byte-address. at all. [18:20]
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform he has a point though. you need someone as doggedly determined as ceausescu to keep the thing afloat. economic blocs are a reality for what, 50 years now ? euro "common market" was not particularily DESIRED. [18:21]
mircea_popescu: just unavoidable. [18:21]
asciilifeform: diana_coman: observe that the one place where we give any shit at all re octets, is the printer, and there we simply shift Byteness*2 times. [18:21]
diana_coman: ofc but idiotic keccac "reference" implementation goes about reading *bytes* although spec clearly talks of bits and at most of z-dimension long array of bytes and as a consequence madness necessarily ensues [18:21]
diana_coman: as I said: my recent headaches on the topic made this absolutely pop out to me [18:22]
asciilifeform: diana_coman: fortunately ffa is an arithmetron not an academitard-designed hashtron, and doesn't ever need to care about bytes, worx in units of machineword. [18:22]
diana_coman: array of bits* there [18:22]

mircea_popescu: asciilifeform i think it's because computing class is postodctoral, whereas language class is highschool. so they learn the x:=a a:=b b:=x "trick" way before anyone even explains xor. [18:50]

mircea_popescu: well... correct is from straight. so is right. [19:33]
asciilifeform: aaha [19:34]
mircea_popescu: not from legal. which would make the alien anthropologist suspect the russkis have the great inca, not the usskis. [19:34]
asciilifeform: they certainly had 'great inca', before columbus sailed. [19:37]
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform btw, if you want another vignette : dan adamescu was this fellow, 2nd richest romanian (excluding mp, of course) in 2013. then the govt took its krysha back, his company magically was now bankrupt, by 2016 he was being sent to jail for supposedly trying to bribe the judgtes in a 1e8 civil case with 20k. early 2017 had died, of septicemia, for which he had been placed in medical coma. it all begun with a knee ope [19:37]
mircea_popescu: ration. guess what made it necessary. [19:37]
asciilifeform: lol kneecapped? [19:38]
mircea_popescu: the guy's son somehow managed to have teh ICSID tell the romanians to get fucked (they actually had an interpol "arrest warrant" out for the guy) [19:38]
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform well... prison life can be hard for a 68 yo whom teh russians particularly dun like. bonus points : his lawyer "suicided" self by jumping before train. [19:39]
asciilifeform: i dun get it, what was the ru aspect [19:40]
mircea_popescu: can't say i exactly get it either, but it wasn't teh usians so what exactly is lefty. [19:41]
asciilifeform: swedes!11 [19:41]
mircea_popescu: i... guess. [19:41]
mircea_popescu: maybe it was the ukrs!!1 [19:41]
mircea_popescu: it conceivably was a bit of personal bitterness over some ancient story about taping people in hotels. or any other thing. [19:42]
asciilifeform: could be just about anyone and anything, asciilifeform is wholly unequipped to say. [19:43]
mircea_popescu: myeah. [19:43]
asciilifeform: ( sometimes it is very obvious who-whom, when demonstrative and spectacular polonium tea etc. but this is rare. ) [19:44]
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: item XI in http://trilema.com/2016/how-to-participate-in-the-affairs-of-the-most-serene-republic refers to i suspect an unrenumbered X [20:44]
asciilifeform: ( or hm, maybe not ) [20:45]

asciilifeform: nm it's in there [21:16]
asciilifeform: i tested on gnu's, but 2016 [21:17]
asciilifeform: entirely possibly 2015 didn't have those knobs. [21:17]
mod6: ah. maybe this one is too old. i'll work on that. [21:17]
asciilifeform: you can comment out the pertinent knobs, see if any other caltrops. [21:17]
mod6: ok [21:18]
asciilifeform: ( prolly i oughta lose the last 2 at least, tasking is already off ) [21:18]
mod6: Ok, I commented out the four restrictions that it complained about then : http://p.bvulpes.com/pastes/FaQpe/?raw=true [21:21]
mod6: Looks good :] [21:21]
asciilifeform: yay [21:22]
