03:29 asciilifeform will be updated at unpredictable intervals with potentially arbitrarily-inconsistent text!
03:30 asciilifeform and at times may disappear entirely. you've been warned!
03:31 asciilifeform updated/added material includes 'for the enemy, nothing' ; command table;
03:31 asciilifeform broadcast epilogue; and others.
03:32 asciilifeform and of course the red/black/message masses, updated re earlier thrd.

12:26 PeterL In section 3.1, where you discuss breaking a long message into two messages, correct me if I am wrong: these are not going to get reassembled back into one IRC message by the receiving peer, they get transmitted to the console as two IRC messages?
~ 2 hours 8 minutes ~
14:34 asciilifeform PeterL: yes the intent is to reassemble. (and when one day there may be a dedicated client program -- to reassemble arbitrarily-long texts.) i'ma make this clear in the doc.
14:35 asciilifeform http://logs.nosuchlabs.com/log/asciilifeform/2021-09-20#1058832 << ty, will fix. the whole thing still needs a whole lotta work.

14:36 asciilifeform http://logs.nosuchlabs.com/log/asciilifeform/2021-09-20#1058831 << asciilifeform read this and the earlier piece: and mightily did he barf. archaetypical academibarf, and cemented asciilifeform's conclusion that hmac is by far the best looking horse in that glue factory

14:38 asciilifeform the 'biba' thing is particularly egregious wtf -- not only is nearly as expensive as 4096bit rsa to sign, but leaks key bits like a sieve and requires constant resupply (somehow!) of the ~10kByte~ (!) pubkey
14:41 asciilifeform over many years (incl. some time, sadly, spent in direct professional contact with such miscreants) asciilifeform came to the conclusion that the authors of such work are far too occupied with sucking their own cocks, while so deeply impressed with own cleverness, to come up with anything of practical value whatsoever.
14:42 asciilifeform for brief time d. bernstein was a kind of exception -- but swamp quickly swallowed him, and for many yrs now he has not been distinguishable from other swamp creatures.
14:43 asciilifeform ever since this, asciilifeform 'hears word 'cryptographer' and reaches for pistol'.
14:44 asciilifeform http://logs.nosuchlabs.com/log/asciilifeform/2021-09-20#1058826 << moar or less accurate description.

15:03 punkman "Our signature scheme ALPS can tradeoff the three main properties public key size, signature size, and computational delay. Signatures are between 20 to 40 bytes in size. Signing and verification typically takes between merely 10 and 300 µs. And a public key a few kilobytes in size is sufficient to authenticate a live stream."

20:00 asciilifeform lolwat
20:00 asciilifeform is this 1st known shitcoin where you can pwn an idjit by sending him tx? or wat
20:15 punkman it's not simple tx, interacting with malicious contracts, even if it looks safe, can result in exploit
~ 23 minutes ~
20:38 asciilifeform punkman: what's it mean to 'interact with contract' if not analogous to btc's tx ?
20:39 asciilifeform lemme guess, have the shitcoinists with their 'smart xyz' finally devised a two-ended pistol where the shooter can never be certain whether bullet goes fwd or backward?
~ 2 hours 3 minutes ~
22:43 punkman asciilifeform: seems clear that none of the people in that thread understand what "interact with contract" means
22:43 punkman fuck me if I know
22:44 punkman Something like this I think: eth tx sender addr, recipient addr, value, data. When you send data to a contract address, that's interaction with contract. If you are just sending value, it's like btc
22:45 punkman but sender addr can be a contract too. In fact many of the eth wallets don't give you pub/private pairs, but a priv key to a smart contract that manages the actual eth addresses holding value
22:47 punkman example "This is called “social recovery” and works as follows: when the user restores the app (e.g after having lost their phone), the trusted contacts receive requests that they have to confirm. After a majority confirms, the new private key becomes the new owner of the smart
22:47 punkman contract holding the funds."
