Well it appears you *do* have readers, but those that write in are very sporadic. |

shinohai: point being that someone who actually downloads the patches, would've noticed and perhaps said sumthing. |

Kinda makes me wonder if there are peeps not using vtron to press, and instead just downloading vpatches and manually patching. |

My comment system is somewhat akin to this, asciilifeform. Bothering to send an email means more than just filling in a text field and pressing a button. |

That's as any decent man would, asciilifeform. |

for that matter, imho 99%+ of the comments to date, were ~not~ a boost to the snr of my www. ( i let'em through the mod queue, as normally do when item does not appears obviously spamological, out of respect to the sender. ) |

My most extreme dislike about commentators are when they mention other websites. |
| 15:24 |

I post them anyway, but if I had wanted to note some trash website, I'd have done so myself. |

Our websites are different in this respect. |

asciilifeform learned, from the 'extreme popularity' of the ffa articles, 100% of everything he ever wanted to know about the 'cryptography community' |
| 15:28 |
verisimilitude |
Most of the ``cryptography community'' would rather have insurance than working software, right? |
| 15:30 |
asciilifeform |
verisimilitude: 'insurance' is very much the wrong word, it aint as if anyone ponied up millions to compensate 'heartbleed' victims |

Perhaps company, then. |

shinohai doesn't see much difference between HN and reddit tbh. Same lemmings, different banner. |

A term which has arisen for this is ``bugmen'', asciilifeform. |

verisimilitude: familiar w/ 'credo quia absurdum' ? |

I'll hazard a guess at translation. |

Be it ``rules with regards to the absurd''? |

I've not yet resumed my studies. In any case, what then? |

asciilifeform |
verisimilitude: 'i believe because it is absurd'. attributed to the early christians. |
| 15:42 |

Ah, so similar to ``You are insane because you are not like us.''. |

asciilifeform |
verisimilitude: the history is contested, but concept 100% applies. you can't found a religion on '1+1==2' or 'fire is hot'. but on idiocies -- can, makes simple to distinguish 'believers'. in current-day game-theoretical parlance, 'expensive signal'. |
