http://logs.nosuchlabs.com/log/trilema/2020-01-15#1956883 <<< would like to hear asciilifeform 's thoughts on "why detached sigs" when he has spare time. |

(trilema) 2020-01-15 diana_coman: hardly seems worth it though for that sort of case and I don't quite have any other clear reason for detached sig on vpatches. |

shinohai: mp will helpfully illustrate why, when he breaks it ( similarly to how it was mengele who finally demonstrated 'what happens when cut out liver and sew back up' ) |
17:36 |
shinohai |
It just feels neater, at any rate, to put sigs from ppl in your wot in `seals/` imho |
17:36 |
asciilifeform |
shinohai: nuffin to do with 'feels neater'. |
17:37 |
shinohai |
No, of course not but I simply like well organized things. |
17:38 |
asciilifeform |
detached sigs are indep. of the signed matter and of ea. other, which gives decentralized ( folx dun need to 'ask permission' to sign ) and lang-indep. system. |

mp otoh wants, naturally, centralized reich, with self as 'sun emperor'. entirely logical that he'd want to break v in specifically this way. |
17:42 |
asciilifeform |
i expect at some pt he'll 'reinvent' pki also. what insubordinate nonsense, where plebes can rsa w/out permission from the throne!1 |
17:43 |
asciilifeform |
fwiw shinohai fella was quite up-front re what he is, w/ the 'meaning flows from structure of authority' etc. |
17:44 |
asciilifeform |
this aint some kinda 'bait & switch', but logical flow from his quite overt 'i am god-emperor' pos. |
17:52 |
asciilifeform |
shinohai: ftr i dun have a problem w/ crackpots making broken/incompat. vtrons. it only becomes a problem if you want to work with'em. i'ma ignore, just as i ignore microshit's idea of crypto. |

^ This is of course the proper stance, simply kek and move on. |

this sorta clownade may be new/interesting to american folx, but on asciilifeform's homeworld there is looong history of this. the finale is quite predictable. |

(trilema) 2017-11-14 asciilifeform: when asciilifeform wanted to read lysenko in the original , he had to visit the rarest-rarities reading room in american national lib of medicine |

asciilifeform |
'3rd dud harvest in a row' 'let's shoot more wreckers' '4th dud harvest...' 'shoot more wreckers' etc |

i'll admit it aint clear to me why folx want to endlessly re-enact the tragicomedies of 20th c. on tabletop. but evidently some do. |

asciilifeform finds it interesting how 'god emperors' ~never seem to realize that they themselves breed 'pantsuits' ( typically dim folx, trying to act on their entirely unsurprising disillusionment w/ concept of 'meaning from structure of authority' ) -- rather like how population of vermin explodes in time of war |

dunno that i'd want to eat a meat dropped from chopper ( expect it'd be rather like to eat roadkill, in re texture ) but to each his own |

Well, they dropped it into a pool |
22:32 |

"water ~= cement after '10 story'" indeed |
