00:00 ben_vulpes anyways, otaku gaijin shit aside a) do you have videos of this thing working or am i supposed to believe that it does because you now have a key you can use and b) how much for the whole circus, delivered
00:01 gabriel_laddel_p ben_vulpes: will be (figuring out how to, and then) sending you an encrypted gpg thingy tomorrow.
00:01 gabriel_laddel_p it'll have a link to a video.
00:01 ben_vulpes pricing that sensitive, eh?
00:01 phf also sbcl got some balls. they've been adding all this stuff, don't do this, don't do that. i suppose you can either muffle it, or just not optional the second argument and pass nil everytime there's nothing. fwiw your code always has an argument list, so it's non issue
00:01 gabriel_laddel_p ben_vulpes: not at all: 410 + the price of the hardware.
00:02 asciilifeform gabriel_laddel_p: does your thing have a www ?
00:02 ben_vulpes well i'm just on tenterhooks waiting to learn what's so cryptworthy
00:02 gabriel_laddel_p ben_vulpes: I have 4 other people who want them/one. Need to organize my thoughts, stop reading about [redacted] and actually respond to their emails.
00:03 gabriel_laddel_p asciilifeform: no, and it won't.
00:03 asciilifeform wai not, gabriel_laddel_p ? e.g., FUCKGOATS, has a www
00:03 asciilifeform mpex -- has www. deedbot. etc
00:04 gabriel_laddel_p asciilifeform: to move fiat monies into republican coffers. You all get free reign to sell masamune and take 100% of profits past buying the first one.
00:04 gabriel_laddel_p I don't want someone to be able to look up a webpage and debate you about what it is that they get.
00:04 gabriel_laddel_p they get what they get from $PERSON_WHO_ORDERED_FROM_ME
00:05 asciilifeform fwiw whoever wants can also make own FUCKGOATS and sell.
00:05 asciilifeform yet it has www, because wtf, how else anyone knows what it is that is for sale.
00:06 gabriel_laddel_p asciilifeform: say that you derp around with MGL_MAT and make a neat handwriting recognition module like the HP Compaq TC1100 had.
00:06 gabriel_laddel_p You should be able to charge whatever and "they" can suck it.
00:06 * mircea_popescu chuckles privately at all teh folk imparting phonetic content through frowning peculiarly at everyday alphabetic notation. oh mu-ne is it!
00:07 gabriel_laddel_p mk back to CA.
00:08 mircea_popescu oh speaking of which, gabriel_laddel_p why not packaging fuckgoats with the masamunes ?
00:09 mircea_popescu oh im too late huh.
00:09 asciilifeform also gabriel_laddel_p's boxen flying off the shelf, but still no permanent postbox..?
00:09 ben_vulpes someone's going to have to fuel the meth habit for another month to pop this one
00:09 asciilifeform and no ransomed old pgp key..?
00:10 mircea_popescu dude he sold 4 boxes, if he makes enough for a decent meal out of that he's ahead of the game.
00:10 ben_vulpes so he says, so he says.
00:11 asciilifeform i'd still like to know wtf it was that he even sells. having a www would help...
00:11 mircea_popescu he apparently wants to sell p2p, big whoop.
00:11 asciilifeform from the l0gz, it looks like a shitlinux with sbcl preinstalled (big fat breakthrough?)
00:12 ben_vulpes phf: ty
00:12 ben_vulpes now if only i could find a graceful way to muffle compiler warnings for functions...
00:12 mircea_popescu asciilifeform suspicion is unwarranted for the following reason : if he was aware he's packaging crap, he'd not be courting you ; or him. because unlike him you do have wwws. so either he's patently insane or else got something. in either case, a few hundy, not the end of the world. a decent escort is ~same.
00:12 asciilifeform i have nothing in particular against the d00d, but it is quite genuinely unclear to me where the 'value added' is.
00:13 mircea_popescu same is true about apple.
00:13 ben_vulpes why in the not gentooing your own boxes
00:13 ben_vulpes and all the hours spent changing belts and capplugs
00:13 ben_vulpes as you yourself pointed out
00:13 asciilifeform ben_vulpes: it isn't optional
00:14 asciilifeform if you don't, you are stuck using some variant of crapple.
00:14 ben_vulpes no i'm going to plug my ears say neener and make it gabriel_laddel's problem
00:14 mircea_popescu the original proposition was "hooker-ready laptop". i can see the "value add".
00:14 ben_vulpes actually whole thing is likely just a ploy to get pre-rooted boxen into republican ops
00:15 asciilifeform clim is 'hooker ready' ?!
00:15 ben_vulpes physicist, maybe
00:15 mircea_popescu asciilifeform masamune;d better be. ben_vulpes hey, find the hole, get a prize.
00:16 asciilifeform ubuntu/whateveritwas autoupdater.
00:16 asciilifeform do i win the prize.
00:16 mircea_popescu it wasn't ubuntu based was it ?
00:16 asciilifeform i've nfi
00:16 asciilifeform now if it had a www...
00:16 mircea_popescu then wut.
00:16 ben_vulpes still gotta fuckin quarantine the thing when it shows up.
00:20 ben_vulpes new topic
00:20 ben_vulpes guitarists who type a lot: do you always trim both hands?
00:22 asciilifeform ben_vulpes is guitarist ?
00:22 ben_vulpes i play at least 30 minutes 4 times a week
00:22 asciilifeform neato, i had nfi.
00:23 ben_vulpes some 1.5 years back i leapt off the couch and demanded a hand-held instrument to awaken dormant pathways
00:23 asciilifeform asciilifeform's pet critter has a guitar, but it has not been touched in decade+, might crumble into dust if unpacked.
00:24 ben_vulpes girl provided a guitar in short order
00:24 ben_vulpes so now i play guitar poorly and frequently
00:24 asciilifeform iirc somebody sells electric guitar now that is just a stick with painted-on 'strings', and a comp
00:24 phf deep purple covers on a loop?
00:24 asciilifeform switch on, play by imaginarily plucking.
00:24 ben_vulpes asciilifeform: "guitar hero"!
00:25 asciilifeform ben_vulpes: no, not the toy, a tunable/playable thing
00:25 asciilifeform but i fuhget the vendor
00:25 asciilifeform something chinese.
00:25 BingoBoingo <asciilifeform> mircea_popescu: iirc the longest-enduring venus probe croaked after 1h. from overheat. << Or corrosion. Place requires ph balancing
00:25 asciilifeform for some reason i picture the 'baliste' in 'dune' as working like this.
00:26 ben_vulpes baliset i think
00:26 asciilifeform baliset
00:26 asciilifeform aha
00:26 asciilifeform kbd eggog
00:26 asciilifeform BingoBoingo: d00d has little plastic models of the probez in his office, would go on and on..
00:27 asciilifeform ben_vulpes: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KuBSvNtlAq8 << oblig
00:30 ben_vulpes holy shit i forgot picard was in that
00:30 phf not enough reverb. i always thought baliset being a 70s instrument, considering that they had those portable source of energy in their shields, would be a kind of guitar moog
00:31 ben_vulpes a shit i'm going to have to rewatch this.
00:34 asciilifeform phf: funnily enough, iirc the item used in the film actually fit this description.
00:37 asciilifeform and aha, ben_vulpes , recall during conf 4, mircea_popescu playing the baliset, we poured the waterz...
00:39 ben_vulpes asciilifeform: aha and the isis men kept trying to fuck the goats :D
00:40 ben_vulpes phf: (cmd &optional args input)
00:40 ben_vulpes which brings me to: "when positional, and when keyword?"
00:41 * BingoBoingo starting to think that mebbe Venus just needs a moon
00:49 phf ben_vulpes: i think best way to answer that question is to read a lot of existing code from different backgrounds (pre-2000s code, famous people code, etc.). my rule of thumb is that you use optional if ~at call site~ it's still obvious what the argument means. otherwise you promote it to keywoard. (run "foo" `("-p" "bar")) makes sense, but (run "foo" `("-p" "bar") stream) you start guessing. is it input stream? is it output stream?
00:49 phf etc.
00:50 phf in this case, if you want to avoid the warning and not fuck with muffling, i'd stick with (cmd args &key input). fwiw that's what sbcl's run-program does already
00:52 ben_vulpes verily
00:52 ben_vulpes okay ty
00:52 ben_vulpes still means one has to (run "foo" `())
00:52 * BingoBoingo wonders how many hamplanets need be flung into Venusuvian orbit in order to make a credible moon that spins that bitch around faster.
00:53 phf yes, but you never do, also it's (run "foo" nil) or if you insist (run "foo" ()) though that last one looks funny
00:53 phf you as in you in your code
00:54 ben_vulpes right

01:49 ben_vulpes mats: what kinda timeframe are you biting your nails over?
01:50 mats the bet settles on 01 january 2017
01:58 ben_vulpes ah i see
02:01 davout http://btcbase.org/log/2016-12-28#1591748 <<< playing classical stuff?
02:01 a111 Logged on 2016-12-28 05:20 ben_vulpes: guitarists who type a lot: do you always trim both hands?
02:01 ben_vulpes davout: no, simple rhythm stuff
02:01 davout what do you need your nails for then? get yourself a pick or something
02:02 ben_vulpes compulsive nail tidying is 2x as expensive if you do both hands
02:03 ben_vulpes sounds like davout thinks "just trim your hands evenly, weirdo"
02:04 davout i don't get it, the expensive part for me is "finding the nail clipper", not the "clipping nails"
02:04 ben_vulpes but do you reticulate the splines
02:06 davout what is that?
02:06 ben_vulpes sim city 3k reference
02:06 ben_vulpes "Reticulating the splines..."
02:06 ben_vulpes in the loading screen
02:06 ben_vulpes bad joke, dun sweat it
02:07 davout yeah, googled it, got "Reticulating splines | The Sims Wiki | Fandom powered by Wikia", wtf levels increased :D
02:09 ben_vulpes in retrospect, the expensive part is having mismatched nail lengths
02:10 ben_vulpes i have utterly nfi how women put up with all of the ornamental crap

02:38 ben_vulpes my internal popesculator says "what, wimminz are for ornamenting!"
02:39 mats i've always thought it was weird that english speakers use 'daddy' but not 'mommy'
02:40 mats in this context
02:40 ben_vulpes mats: does 'mommy' typically hold the purse strings among yr people?
02:41 ben_vulpes also are talking fathers, husbands, sugar daddies or 'beta buxx'?
02:42 mats i'd say its 1:1
02:43 mats http://shanghaiist.com/2016/09/01/chinese_women_control_household_finances.php << seems to agree
02:43 mats i mean, i grew up in sv, so i live in a weird in-between of us and cn culture
02:44 ben_vulpes heh the sv/us conflation

02:47 mats didn't turn out to be that different, the new money here is just young white dudes that wear brooks brothers instead of uniqlo
02:48 davout "In addition to the headline finding, the study also discovered that the more women earn, the greater say they have over the family's financial management." <<< such finding
02:48 ben_vulpes new money is uniformly uninteresting
02:48 ben_vulpes old money moderately interesting if you're trying to marry into it

03:37 ben_vulpes http://btcbase.org/log/2016-12-28#1591573 << i'll have to think on how to fix this
03:37 a111 Logged on 2016-12-28 02:39 phf: http://btcbase.org/patches/hashes_and_errors#L118 you don't really want to do this. you're subseq'ing there to strip the a/ b/ but that's not at all a guarantee! i have a vpatch with `diff -ib -ruN /Users/pf/cmucl20d-build/src/hemlock/abbrev.lisp src/abbrev.lisp` in it for example. at the very least you want to abstract it away into its own function. that would correctly operate on a hashed-path datastructure.
~ 16 minutes ~
03:54 mats davout: well, its actually getting cheaper to live in, say, sf or boston, in the short-term, due to high rises going up
03:54 davout you mean wages?
03:54 mats its not really specific to hk or tw, and tw is actually more affordable comparatively
03:55 mats i mean luxury residences pushing prices down

05:37 a111 Logged on 2016-12-28 02:17 phf: there's not much discipline on unix with stderr/stdout. particularly gpg seems cavalier with it. so i wouldn't even bother with error/output separation. i'd make it always return a single value, string that's combined stdout/stderr, and fail when status code is not equal to zero. maybe add a key argument, that splits them if need be, but only once there's need.
05:39 jurov use batchmode and just ignore stdout (unless you need it)

11:42 asciilifeform mircea_popescu: tropos , i recall now, was the other big one.
11:42 asciilifeform (it displays unremarkable ssh hello, the litmus for it uses the ssl cert that the boxes also display on 443)
11:43 mircea_popescu pretty sure multiple do this.
11:43 asciilifeform the interesting bit re tropos is that it is not a konsoomer box, but infrastructural (isp, public wifi, gsm, utility sensors) and for some reason popular in orc world
11:43 mircea_popescu yea
11:44 asciilifeform http://www.loper-os.org/?p=1733 << as seen here, good chunk of the first N ssh keys to pop were tropos boxen.
11:49 asciilifeform the other interesting experiment, yet undone, is to generate ssh, ssl, pgp, etc. keys on some of the other os with known-broken rng -- e.g., freebsd 2010-2014 (or when was it), possibly other
11:49 asciilifeform then enumerate factors.
11:49 asciilifeform then -- debianize.
11:51 asciilifeform one of the hidden evils of 'of course generating key takes 10 minutes!' traditional entropy starvation -- is that nobody expects to be able to do the test where you generate 10 billion keys and make sure that the resulting keys have gcd of 1
11:51 asciilifeform whereas this is elementarily reasonable.
11:52 Framedragger also, as you noted earlier, there's a good chance a bunch of ssh *client* keys were generated on those machines, too, so also possible to try to bruteforce-login with generated keys (to servers which have broken rngs)
11:52 asciilifeform Framedragger: this also. but -- slow.
11:52 Framedragger yeah.
11:52 asciilifeform this is for when mircea_popescu gets his botnet.
11:54 mircea_popescu asciilifeform aha.
11:58 * asciilifeform since release of FUCKGOATS, spent much time studying 'serpent' block cipher.
11:58 asciilifeform it is pretty interesting imho.
11:58 asciilifeform for instance, there are no tables.
11:58 asciilifeform (and so, no cache-sensitivity.)
12:00 asciilifeform http://wotpaste.cascadianhacker.com/pastes/HQmMH/?raw=true << example in ada. < 700 ln.
12:09 asciilifeform the political history is also rather interesting (it was on track to winning the 'aes competition', received fewest thumbs-down votes from the panelists, but mysteriously torpedoed by usg and did not win)
12:22 mircea_popescu serpent, eh ?

12:46 davout asciilifeform: lol, even frouikipedia concurs
12:46 davout "Une controverse existe, selon laquelle Serpent n'aurait pas été choisi comme AES, car casser ses clés aurait été beaucoup trop complexe pour les services de renseignement civils et militaires. De plus, même dans une version simplifiée il reste robuste. Par exemple Rijndael est très souvent implémenté dans TLS en version simplifiée sur 14 de ses 16 tours pour des raisons de rapidité, mais aussi d'analyses de données. Alors que Serpent
12:46 davout doit être abaissé à au moins 9 tours pour fournir un niveau identique d'exploitation."
12:46 asciilifeform davout: it was a loud, public wank, ~impossible to 'unhappen' to any reasonable degree
12:47 asciilifeform more or less simply declared 'history, done with'
12:47 davout "some terrorists found it controversial"
12:47 mircea_popescu there's certainly worse options than serpent.
12:48 asciilifeform now i will remind readers that 'serpent' is not, afaik, on any kind of scientific foundation. it was made using voodoo doll, just like every other block cipher. (what kind of doll, is described in the paper.)
12:48 asciilifeform BUT it is in several ways, apparent to the naked eye, less retarded than aes
12:48 asciilifeform in particular: no tables.
12:49 asciilifeform pipeline doesn't leak timing either, because - if implemented correctly - you never branch on a secret (key or plaintext) bit.
12:50 Framedragger hut that actually sounds nice..
12:50 asciilifeform the thing executes in constant-ticks, looks like.

12:55 mircea_popescu aha.
12:55 mircea_popescu very reminiscent of elliptic curve "cryptography".
12:56 asciilifeform noshit.jpg. ~same ~2dozen people involved.
12:56 mircea_popescu aha. "experts" and "open source" and "opinion leaders" and whatnot.
12:56 mircea_popescu also about 2/3 of the nsa strength in practice, because outside of getting idiots to do idiotic things - they ain't got nuttin.
13:00 mircea_popescu which is why the republican strategy in sociopolitical cryptography is to isolate the nsa assets - the kochs and dreppers and schneiers + a bevy of small fry boecks etc. let them sit on hacker news and upvote each other to death, but otherwise, outside of the usg reservation, they may not opine and they may not be used as reference.
13:05 asciilifeform mircea_popescu: more dire, even, than this, we aren't dealing with 20 years of disinfo artistry, but ~70 ! hagelin, crypto-ag, etc. and the entire poppycock of transposition ciphers surviving into computer age
13:05 asciilifeform especially transpositions as we know them. i'm still waiting to hear why s-boxes are fixed, rather than entirely configured by the key, ever.
13:06 asciilifeform i asked 'professional cryptographers of international repute' and 0 answer beyond 'here's a banana, monkey boy'
13:06 asciilifeform !#s maslennikov
13:06 a111 14 results for "maslennikov", http://btcbase.org/log-search?q=maslennikov
13:07 asciilifeform ^ d00d worked for kgb crypto directorate in '80s, asked same question of his superiors, got same answer.
13:10 asciilifeform or, the other obvious mega-question, why there is no STRETCHABLE (a la keccak) block cipher
13:11 asciilifeform where you can have 193-bit words if you feel like it, with 311-bit key. and next day - 301-bit words and 503-bit key, etc.
13:11 mircea_popescu because nobody made it, because everyone spent all their time fucking with xcode and unity.
13:11 asciilifeform (answer is, the folx with 'acres of crays' will butthurt that their oh-so-precious special-purpose silicon is bricked)
13:14 asciilifeform mircea_popescu: why 'xcode and unity', and not 'the bottle'
13:14 asciilifeform moar folx went to the bottle.
13:15 mircea_popescu anyway, to create the up-node : "stop doing stupid shit" is the universal pill to de-usg the world. stop doing stupid shit with crypto, as contemplarted here, there's no nsa nor any possibility of nsa. stop "plea bargain"ing, there's no us justice system. stop using us banks, there's no us finance. stop chasing the web-revolutionary-app-nonsense, there's no "us technical lead". stop trying to marry women there's no "5th wave
13:15 mircea_popescu feminism" and so following.
13:15 asciilifeform esp. because ciphers are a blindingly obvious 'political art', where if you aren't schneier et al, you don't get printed in journals, invited to conferences, implemented by open sores monkeys, etc.
13:15 asciilifeform i.e. 'don't exist'
13:15 mircea_popescu the solutions for all these "stop" are given and trivial, now time to apply.
13:16 asciilifeform 'rocket is trivial, just sit in a pipe and throw hot gas out one end'
13:16 mircea_popescu asciilifeform yeah i'm sure i don't exist because schneier didn't invite me to the latest round of rubber chicken.
13:16 mircea_popescu the vice-versa is a lot more concerning, for him.
13:18 asciilifeform now i cannot speak for others, but i spent past few yrs exploring the known space between usgola (aes et al) and http://trilema.com/2013/the-danger-of-homebrew-crypto
13:18 asciilifeform and it's more or less a vacuum.
13:18 asciilifeform at least in as far as public lit.
13:19 mircea_popescu evidently, there's serpent :)
13:19 mircea_popescu and cs, and keccak, and things.
13:19 asciilifeform serpent is, i must note, 'best horse in the glue factory.'
13:19 asciilifeform cs is not a block cipher.
13:20 asciilifeform keccak is not any kind of cipher.
13:20 mircea_popescu well yes, but you said "between usgola and dangerous homebrew crypto"
13:21 asciilifeform (keccak or another hash can be abused as a stream cipher, but it is precisely 'retarded homebrew', i will leave the reason ~why~ as an exercise)
13:27 asciilifeform but also i was referring to ~people~ as much as to algos.

13:37 asciilifeform the academics, any and all of them, afaik, the bought and the unbought, the imbeciles and the brilliant, americans or chinese, so far show 0 inclination to distinguish us from the ants.
13:37 mircea_popescu the alternative explanation being that people are seriously disabled in the sense of coming up with motivation on their own.
13:39 mircea_popescu this is judicious - there's 0 inclination on our part to feed them so they do what they want to do.
13:39 mircea_popescu academics and republic are mutually exclusive constructions.
13:42 asciilifeform the non-academics, on the other hand, also disappoint. for wholly other reasons.
13:43 mircea_popescu eh, what was appointed for them to disappoint ?
13:43 asciilifeform very basic jobs, comprehensible even to a retarded lemur, remain screamingly undone.
13:43 mircea_popescu tell me about it.
13:43 asciilifeform (e.g., block cipher with ~any~ theoretical basis)
13:43 mircea_popescu stuff currently in the eulora hackathon could have been done ~two years ago.
13:44 asciilifeform btw asciilifeform is building a massive 3d gpu + fast cpu + max ram etc. machine, and, among other uses, it will build+run eulora

13:49 mircea_popescu asciilifeform the difference being you know, that "come up with block cipher with ~any~ theoretical basis" is more in the vein of http://btcbase.org/log/2016-12-23#1589135 whereas eulora bot things are more in the vein of "fix yourself a martini"

15:15 pete_dushenski asciilifeform: what kind of graphix card are you plugging in your new eulorabox ? i'm also mid-build and am unsure if meagre nvidia quadro fx 1500 with 256mb is enough steam. curious to see what you'll be using.
15:15 mircea_popescu pete_dushenski more than enough
15:16 asciilifeform pete_dushenski: 1070
15:16 pete_dushenski mircea_popescu: o ? awesome
15:16 asciilifeform it oughta suffice.
15:17 mircea_popescu the minigame recommended build is geforce gt 600s / radeon hd 6000s or above.
15:17 mircea_popescu these are cca 2006 cards.
15:17 pete_dushenski asciilifeform: 8gb gfx card ? mega.
15:18 asciilifeform they're inexpensive.
15:18 pete_dushenski mircea_popescu: perfect!
15:19 pete_dushenski asciilifeform: 0.4 BTC isn't thaaat cheap.

15:21 asciilifeform mircea_popescu: linked item is the minimal board for eulora ?
15:21 mircea_popescu no, it's the recommended.
15:21 asciilifeform aah
15:21 mircea_popescu eulora works fine on, eg "Mesa DRI Intel(R) Ivybridge Mobile"
15:21 mircea_popescu and all sorts of utter, ancient laptop level crap.
15:22 asciilifeform lel that's a 2d card...
15:22 mircea_popescu ikr?
15:26 pete_dushenski let this therefore be remembered as the time alf pissed away 0.3btc (30mn ecu) on his eulorabox build. but hey, nothing like a little deficit to urge on the bot-crafting imagination! watch alf knock down all four hackathon prizes now.
15:27 mircea_popescu who knows, maybe in a few years the gfx level goes way up and it'll turn it into a good investment.
15:28 pete_dushenski aha obsolescence insurance
15:29 pete_dushenski hella expensive insurance mind you, but insurance nonetheless
15:29 mircea_popescu anyway, there's people playing with quadro fx boards, so should be fine.
15:31 pete_dushenski wunderbar. i'd had enough holiday shopping anyways.
15:32 jurov there's (possibly water-related) bug capping fps at ~12 even at some decent setups (such as mine radeon 7790)
15:32 jurov will be hilarious if alf runs into it, too
15:32 mircea_popescu yeah radeon is for some reason iffier fwis.
15:33 mircea_popescu possibly because the client gfx library isn't properly ironed out, tbh.
15:33 asciilifeform jurov: 12?! i played 'quake' on 486-dx2, was approx like this.
15:34 mircea_popescu i have mine capped because otherwise it's 150-200 which... meh.
15:34 asciilifeform and lel, i dun think i said that i planned to ~play~ eulora. just -- build and run !!
15:34 jurov as there's no fighting yet, it's fully playable at 12
15:35 mircea_popescu tbh i'm not a great fan on the twitch frenzy "rts" style. i expect fighting to be a lot closer to the tbs roots of, eg, mm7.
