04:46 mircea_popescu Apocalyptic the expectation would be that it'd be divisible by 32bit-shifted 1 + 1, ie 100000000000000000000000000000001 ie 4294967297
04:48 mircea_popescu the most that can be said of a number produced through taking a composite (moduli are composites - of two primes yes, but composite) and applying the 32bit mirroring process is that you'll obtain an odd number. that's it. the probability of a number that large being prime is roughly speaking n/ln(n)
04:50 mircea_popescu which for a 4096 key comes to about 0.03% or 1 in 3k

04:53 mircea_popescu that's it. fuckall i give a shit about whatever any woman hummed in any circumstance and whatever tree or bird or wheeltrack through the mud.
05:01 mircea_popescu Apocalyptic in retrospect, the discovery that out of the 89 so mirrored factors, any more than 0 are ~actually~ prime would contradict reasonable expectation significantly,
05:02 mircea_popescu or numerically, the confidence that none is prime is something like 97% or thereabouts.
05:05 mircea_popescu http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=26-05-2015#1145911 << omg let people reserve their judgement. would you need new limbs ? what kind ? how big ?

05:09 mircea_popescu i happen to believe the later's the case, but i would certainly regret to see the alternative viewpoint bereft of an experimentally available venue, because i am by no means certain this is so.
05:11 mircea_popescu for this reason, monero's choice is reasonable whatever anyone involved may personally believe - because bitcoin already exists
05:18 mircea_popescu that said, i'm still waiting for fluffypony to come an' say alright guyse, this is ready to present to b-a. because stuff like https://getmonero.org/knowledge-base/about or https://getmonero.org/design-goals/ ... srsly, colored rectangles ? WOW!11

05:20 fluffypony mircea_popescu: it's an open-source project, so I'm waiting for contributors to fill that stuff in :)
05:20 mircea_popescu makes sense.
05:20 mircea_popescu still, from the other pov... fuckall knows what's in there.
05:20 mircea_popescu now, it's true that the first time around (ie, bitcoin), i spent my own money/time to get it researched. but expecting the same be done the 2nd time around is unreasonable.
05:23 mircea_popescu Other issues with ZKP include the RSA private key used to initiate the accumulator, which must be trusted to be destroyed by the generating party. << for the record, this isn't "other issues". this is enough to render the entire thing a joke.
05:23 mircea_popescu no further issues needed.
05:24 mircea_popescu zero coin seems to me exactly designed as a lizard hitler back-up, "alt-bitcoin" bs.
05:26 mircea_popescu fluffypony in any case, comparisons with dead cows like zerocoin, coinjoin etc aren't interesting. i'd like to hear a comparison with bitbet mixing, which is to my eyes the golden standard in bitcoin anonimizing of chain-visible transactions.

05:50 davout monero is pretty neat, the only real problem I see is that it'll bloat even faster than bitcoin given the fact that ring signatures are pretty expensive
05:50 davout (size-wise)
05:52 mircea_popescu how expensive ?
05:53 mircea_popescu http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=27-05-2015#1146036 < division of labour eh ? "you build a city out of vacant lots"
05:53 assbot Logged on 27-05-2015 01:40:00; decimation: where each part manufacturer will 'application engineer' their peice
05:53 davout mircea_popescu: if i understood correctly it's up to the sender, the idea being that you obfuscate where the money's coming from by signing a group of inputs that you may or may not contrel, only one of them being actually spent
05:53 davout *control
05:53 mircea_popescu http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=27-05-2015#1146039 << i recall this. one of the pillars of my original "lol apple is not worth money" notions.
05:53 assbot Logged on 27-05-2015 01:45:02; mats: fun fact: the original iPhone shipped without privilege separation, and in tandem with a libtiff bug Chris Wade wrote an exploit that made it possible to root a user visiting a web page
05:53 davout fluffypony: this correct? ^
05:54 mircea_popescu davout see kinda why i'm waiting for him to decide to present it.
05:54 davout you could, again if i understand correctly, decide to only spend a single input and work in a bitcoin-like 'degraded' mode
05:54 davout in this case the sig may actually be smaller
05:54 mircea_popescu http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=27-05-2015#1146043 << that weight being entirely novel, and ulterior to the first iphone.
05:54 assbot Logged on 27-05-2015 01:46:08; decimation: yeah interestingly apple outta be an exception, given the weight they can throw around
05:55 mircea_popescu davout the problem of bloat is not something that can be individually addressed. in a sense/under a certain perspective this is like saying that 1800s london was incredibly smoky because of all the heating coal usage, but you could also burn clean coal, which was only slightly more expensive.
05:56 davout fluffypony: what was that podcast you made in which you explained how monero works?
05:56 mircea_popescu sure... and whether you do or don't, your clothes will be gray.
05:57 davout so far my actual experience with monero is that the initial sync is horribly slow
05:59 davout i built the daemon five days ago, have it running since then, and it's still 220 days behind apparently
05:59 mircea_popescu out of what, 350 ?

06:27 mircea_popescu cazalla a cool
06:28 mircea_popescu cazalla poor roger ver really belongs in the gallery of famous tragic characters, with brave, brave, brave sir robert, the tragic clown and his faithful wife nedda etc.
06:29 mircea_popescu here's the story of a simple country boy, one could say a cock-eyed optimist who got himself a number of pleabargained felonies after which the sun seemed to shine, and all his long held frustrations as to relevancy for business, intellectual prowess and whatnot seemed to realise! finally! oh, how this moment had been pined for.

06:30 mircea_popescu but then... horror of horrors! everything he touches turns to shit, and now here he is, stuck trying to hold on to the status long after the water's gone out.
06:30 mircea_popescu thousands of bitcoin donated to a shitty foundation ? gone, as is the foundation.
06:30 mircea_popescu paltry attempts to make it stay relevant about as effectual as spitting in the wind.
06:30 cazalla i figured him as autistic tbh
06:31 mircea_popescu the guy spent more than it was worth (in bitcoin treading for a pittance) to acquire a "valuable" domain, as if a domain name could ever be valuable.
06:31 cazalla in his videos his eyes have that glassed over, empty look
06:31 cazalla but anyway, btc.com and bitcoin.com, 2 diff things just occuring at the same time
06:31 mircea_popescu and now he's stuck in a world where others may entertain his pretense (to "professionalism" or to "business-like" or whatever else), but a) only third worlders, and b) only for as far as they find it net positive.
06:31 fluffypony when they say it "lead to the loss of the domain" what do they mean
06:31 fluffypony GAW owns the domain?
06:31 mircea_popescu so no, okpay isn't gonna pay him "what the contract says". okpay doesn't belong to the space of delusion he belongs to.
06:32 mircea_popescu fluffypony it means the fountain of shit these people create as a byproduct of their metabolism.
06:32 mircea_popescu the domain no longer has an owner, it's a toxic asset now
06:32 mircea_popescu much like the original bitcoin magazine
06:32 mircea_popescu for exactly the same reasons.
06:32 cazalla fluffypony, garza "bought" it last year for 1 million.. to pay off in installments over 36 months.. but garza has no money left apparently.. so he leases it to bitcoinist, pockets the money and the real owner of the domain takes it back as garza late/failed to make payments leaving bitcoinist up shit creek

06:33 fluffypony ah
06:33 mircea_popescu cazalla there's at least three parties if not like five with some sort of claim oiver it, all of which cost more to prosecute than the thing would cost to replace.
06:33 cazalla but the bitcoinist guy should've known better seeing he already went through this with garza last year when garza was going to buy bitcoinist and mate tokay wanted green card, 200k, lambo, unit and all that other shit
06:33 mircea_popescu which is why we don't believe for a second that this is a bona fide business dispute.
06:33 mircea_popescu just more smokefronting.
06:34 cazalla kids and their pokemon cards
06:35 chetty appeals court ruled against obama amnesty stuff, sometimes the law kinda works, but I doubt it will stop anything, courts cant enforce and there is history of O thumbing nose at them
06:35 mircea_popescu if ballas were around the one thing i'd ask him would be to write up this particular story. it's something else, "the failures of roger ver's pretense on the jagged shores of reality - 2010 - 2015"
06:35 mircea_popescu chetty which one is this again ?
06:36 chetty O made exec order about giving illegals status and green cards and stuff, Texas sued
06:36 cazalla i thought his amnesty was quite limited to who and time (3 years?)
06:36 mircea_popescu o. heh.
06:37 mircea_popescu chetty and i presume the people in question already received the green cards right ?
06:37 chetty well I bet some did, coursts issued injunctions but I think the agencies just ignored it
06:38 mircea_popescu and obviously nobody's going to jail for any of this.
06:38 mircea_popescu no "20 years to life for wilfully breaking the law from a position of government".
06:39 mircea_popescu just you know, "Dear Judge Forrest,"

10:30 asciilifeform (the trick was, the scrip was available on the black market, in exchange for ordinary - or as they were called, 'wooden' - ruble.)
10:31 asciilifeform in other news,
10:31 asciilifeform gavin & the merry band of shitgnomes used their magic key to transmit 'Warning: This version is obsolete, upgrade required!'
10:32 asciilifeform i have a number of 'conventional' nodes where this warning now appears.

10:32 thestringpuller https://getaddr.bitnodes.io/hardware/ << apparenlty this is shipping today? 2 months ahead of schedule...
10:32 thestringpuller 6 times more than a pogo tho
10:33 asciilifeform costs like a real computer
10:33 jurov lol my parents were in '87 to moscow/leningrad and naively went shopping to "beriozka" for rubbles ... were told "dolary" and shown the door
10:34 asciilifeform jurov: common experience. vysotsky even had a mega-popular song about it.
10:36 thestringpuller asciilifeform: seems like "clustefuck to the hard fork" type deal goin on.
10:37 jurov have you seen gavin complaining research doesn't clearly support it?
10:38 jurov http://gavinandresen.svbtle.com/analysis-paralysis
10:39 asciilifeform thestringpuller: the trick with pogo, incidentally, is that its price is a rather artificial thing. my understanding is that they were sold 'at cost' and presently sold at liquidation price.
10:40 asciilifeform nothing - and i mean, -nothing- remotely comparable is available for any less than 6x the cost.
10:41 asciilifeform it is -literally- the cheapest device on the planet which runs bitcoin.
10:41 jurov there are n900's with broken gsm module available cheaply, and they have 32GB flash storage
10:41 asciilifeform jurov: ram ?
10:41 jurov 512
10:41 asciilifeform and l0l try running your node over a gsm modem today
10:41 asciilifeform or wat, broken ?!
10:41 jurov 80211n no, wifi still works
10:41 asciilifeform aha
10:41 asciilifeform how cheap is 'cheap' ?
10:41 jurov 30eur
10:42 asciilifeform 2-3x the cost of pogo.
10:42 asciilifeform and phone flash is typically dog-slow
10:42 jurov no here it's same as pogo
10:42 asciilifeform not to mention that 32GB is undersized.
10:42 asciilifeform you'd have to throw it out in a year or so.

10:44 asciilifeform mircea_popescu: there is no shortage of folks doing this even now.
10:44 jurov also you forget that you have to buy ssd for the pogo
10:44 asciilifeform jurov: true
10:44 asciilifeform jurov: but this applies to any device
10:44 mircea_popescu asciilifeform nor is there any hope for naive "social media" pseudo-businesses in the future.
10:44 jurov danielpbarron: how big is .bitcoin on pogo?
10:44 mircea_popescu by which i mean facebook and its spawn, twitter, reddit etc.
10:44 asciilifeform because if something were to ship with the 128GB or whatnot that a sane person would ask for a node - built-in, the device would have a capped lifespan
10:45 asciilifeform mircea_popescu: the payola from usg continues, life carries on. at no point are actual users required.
10:45 asciilifeform see also orlov's 'dead souls' essay.
10:45 mircea_popescu the idea isn't to make it impossible for the usg to pretend like itexists.
10:46 mircea_popescu the idea is to make it impossible for anyone to use it for any useful purpose.
10:46 asciilifeform jurov: i haven't a synced one. ask danielpbarron
10:46 mircea_popescu otherwise, the "republic of china" can carry on.
10:47 asciilifeform mircea_popescu: i can scarcely remember a time when it -was- usable for some useful purpose.
10:47 asciilifeform perhaps '06-07
10:47 mircea_popescu weren't you insisting, a day or two ago, that "these folks can still eat - unaffacted" ?
10:48 asciilifeform aha
10:48 asciilifeform because they get fed by usg automagically
10:48 mircea_popescu but then you yourself do notice that no, they can't eat, when you say "folks pointing out that if you want to eat these things -today-, you need -significantly- better connections and de-facto 5-10x the money."
10:48 mircea_popescu arentcha a bundle of contradictions!
10:48 asciilifeform wai wat
10:48 mircea_popescu in any case : the beatings will continue.
10:48 mircea_popescu soon enough usg folk will be able to eat paper and so on.
10:49 asciilifeform link to 'beriozka' is pertinent because at no point did the senior managerial caste lose their access to goodies
10:49 mircea_popescu http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=27-05-2015#1146331 << heh. nature red in tooth and claw. except of course those claws aren't all that impressive for mankind. not anymore at any rate.

10:50 mircea_popescu go eat at the wh sometime.
10:50 asciilifeform when he is picking the less-rotten tomatoes with his own two hands
10:50 mircea_popescu now that you have the experience of actual steak.
10:51 asciilifeform as far as i'm concerned, wh menu may or may not include flesh of virgins
10:51 asciilifeform postmen - will eat paper, yes
10:52 mircea_popescu lmao schmuck is STILL going on with his retarded "no comments allowed" posts about how bitcoin this or that ?
10:52 asciilifeform i've been informed that some already are
10:52 mircea_popescu ridoinculous.
10:52 mircea_popescu asciilifeform so.go.eat.at.wh.sometime
10:52 mircea_popescu not like it's THAT hard.
10:52 asciilifeform l0l i think they actually guard the parties now
10:53 asciilifeform so yes, postmen - will eat paper. but less than 2 yrs ago i was a guest at a house party of a fella who, it turned out, was middle management at nsa. he is not eating paper.
10:53 asciilifeform he eats very, very well.
10:53 mircea_popescu <mircea_popescu> in any case : the beatings will continue.
10:53 mircea_popescu he will eat worse next year.
10:54 asciilifeform he will eat worse once he runs out of my and neighbour's fat.
10:54 asciilifeform and not before.
10:55 jurov if you so insist
10:55 asciilifeform jurov: dogs, then, also have fleas because they insist ?
10:56 jurov "on irc, no one knows i am a dog"
10:57 asciilifeform i like converse 'on the net, though no one might know, i am still a dog'
10:57 mircea_popescu asciilifeform he has a point. yes, they will try, which is why you (the impersonal you) wants to get out of there.
10:57 asciilifeform and yes, if dog could get ddt - he would
10:57 mircea_popescu would it ?
10:58 asciilifeform certainly, if he knew of it
10:58 mircea_popescu how do you know this ?
10:58 asciilifeform cannot know, obviously
10:58 asciilifeform but only suspect
10:58 mircea_popescu maybe dog knows but believes it somehow is exceptional for him.
10:59 mircea_popescu "when i see birds using ddt i'll believe it" or somesuch
10:59 asciilifeform something almost aesopian about this

15:52 mircea_popescu ascii_field well inasmuch as that's what "produce milk, pull cart, turn millstone" means, you did.
15:53 ascii_field i do agree, pets must be exercised properly

16:02 ascii_field just not -which-.
16:02 mircea_popescu hunt for it has been ongoing, but we don't have one yet
16:03 mircea_popescu the chumps derping about self-importantly on "cryptographic" "lists" etc are certainly using it - but so far too dumb to realise they shyould be looking.

16:05 mircea_popescu (i could diddle one too, what use is it. we need the actual item, not something custom made)
16:06 ascii_field naturally bounty would require proving that the animal existed in the wild prior to the discovery
16:06 ascii_field this is not entirely impossible
16:09 mircea_popescu i'd much rather take someone's word. which requires people motivated by their own functioning head.

16:12 mircea_popescu since we were discussing airplanes : f-15, pretty much the only successful military jet to be ever designed and produced by the us by itself, has cost ~35 bn for the ~1200 items produced, and has managed a total kill score of ~100.
16:12 mircea_popescu this means each aerial victory the us has obtained through its most successful program to date cost ~350 million dollars.
16:13 mircea_popescu anyone wonder why they prefer to win imaginary victories via bribing whatever newspaper is fashionable that day ? shit's damned expensive.
16:13 ascii_field mircea_popescu: very much broken assumption here, though
16:13 ascii_field mircea_popescu: the airplane was not built for victories
16:13 mircea_popescu i don't care what people intend.

23:09 asciilifeform back side reads 'this cheque is not subject to resale'
