Although you have a doctorate, I doubt that you do research,” Schlesinger wrote to a disabilities services specialist at the university, announcing his departure last week. He accused the staff member of writing him “coercive emails” about the accommodation and copied his entire class on climate and global change on the exchange."
05:51 BingoBoingo When's the fun?
05:54 BingoBoingo Ah, here it is from Mr. Climatarast: "While he gave all of his students hard copies of his lecture notes before class, he said, he didn’t provide electronic copies because “based on my experience of providing all my students my lecture slides after each lecture for most if not all of the 16 times I have taught this course, I knew that one-third of my class would cease coming to my lectures if I provided them my lecture slides electro

16:50 mircea_popescu http://p.bvulpes.com/pastes/tMAgD/?raw=true << illustrative.
16:51 asciilifeform oh speaking of this, asciilifeform's pet had response to mircea_popescu's 'o sopirla' : 'there is also an inverse sopirla, where an item has the outward pretense of disobedience, but in fact reaffirms pantsuit orthodoxy. did the romanians have a name for it as well?'
16:52 mircea_popescu no, because the first romanian to ever notice this exists was called mircea popescu.
16:53 asciilifeform lolk
16:53 mircea_popescu that's the advantage of living in a small pond, the exact opposite of the problem of math.
16:53 * asciilifeform can picture
16:53 mircea_popescu i suppose you could stretch "hypocrisy" to try and fit it, if you must.
16:54 asciilifeform nah unspecific
16:54 mircea_popescu well you could also call it graham, or yarvin, or somesuch.
16:54 asciilifeform sopirla is very delectably specific
16:54 asciilifeform lol
16:55 mircea_popescu but the phenomenon of "think outside the box! in the sense of out of that one and into this one!" is very widespread, which is why such shock and awe as in eg http://trilema.com/2016/an-immodest-proposal/#comment-119962
16:56 mircea_popescu and the problem is also a LOT bigger than commonly understood. a scientist's ability to produce anything meaningful is forever trapped in the superifical tension of a very narrow menisc : between him being caught in a certain box ("paradigm") but not in the other one ("orthodoxy").
16:56 mircea_popescu too loose and he won't be comprehended, like poisson couldn't read galois, notwithstanding certain talent and ability.

16:57 asciilifeform it's a fundamental tension in ~everything~, because it is in fact an information-theoretical problem and not at all domain-specific
16:57 mircea_popescu there is no such thing as information theoretical, seeing how information has an actual thermodynamic backing.

17:11 asciilifeform got it!
17:15 mircea_popescu anyway, to get back to the boxen : the correct solution to "how much box" is, on the basis of both practical observation (every time tought, either as science, or as art, or as political work worked to date ; not to mention coral growth and everything else) as well as theoretical understanding is to provide SPURS instead of walls.
17:15 mircea_popescu because that's how you resolve the "i can't tell if this young'un is galois or insane" in practice of elder, slower, heavier gents : "follow ONE fucking spur to allow me to organize your nonsense, god damn it!"

19:40 BingoBoingo asciilifeform: Presumably african frog?
19:40 kanzure anyway the concern is that there's not enough pure silicon available to make enough flash memory for future projected demands of like 2^28 bits in ~20 years.
19:41 asciilifeform and so instead write with dna, a mol of which weighs approx what young elephant weighs ?

19:44 asciilifeform y'know the meat device for displaying those is already built : there's 1 on my windowsill atm
19:45 kanzure but the nsa can't use that to capture and store all the packets..

19:51 BingoBoingo So this "Sally Hemmings And The Widower" Fanfic/novel, I'm not finding anyway to work crabapple metaphor into unifying narrative
19:51 asciilifeform boneh is imho an interesting example of a man who thought that intellectual and political integrity were severable
19:51 asciilifeform and ended up without either
19:51 mircea_popescu interesting point.

19:53 asciilifeform kanzure: if the year were 1995 and you were on sci.crypt and the denizen loon is promising 'zipper that zips 100MB into 100kB' you would laugh. but you do not laugh at publickkeysignatureaggregation ?!
19:53 asciilifeform pray tell why not.
19:54 asciilifeform and this is only one of the pseudoscientific horrors that boneh is pushing today.
19:54 mircea_popescu i don't expect he's familiar.
19:54 asciilifeform ( flavoured with much proofyjuice of course )
19:54 asciilifeform mircea_popescu: it is explicitly mentioned in kanzure's link, which is why i use as example
19:54 mircea_popescu you don't correctly grasp the level of superficiality involved.
19:54 mircea_popescu remember, "atmospheric feeding".
19:54 asciilifeform plus obsessed over in the #wizards heathen pit where kanzure is known to dwell
19:55 mircea_popescu asciilifeform that's meaningless.
19:55 asciilifeform so betcha he knows.
19:55 mircea_popescu what's the definition of "know" contemplated here ?
19:55 asciilifeform 1) knows how $algo worx 2) knows how it fails, and eventually produces phantom sigs 3) knows who pushes it 4) knows why
19:55 mircea_popescu "visually recognizes string, like parrot" or somesuch ?
19:55 mircea_popescu absolutely not.
19:55 BingoBoingo Know is a prejudicial un-solarshaded term
19:56 kanzure just last week i was in SF because http://diyhpl.us/wiki/transcripts/bitcoin-core-dev-tech/2017-09-06-signature-aggregation/
19:56 asciilifeform aha!
19:56 asciilifeform knows.
19:56 kanzure i wasn't aware that i had to report my whereabouts to you guys but whatever
19:56 mircea_popescu asciilifeform he was there in the sense wino was in bar. it takes a very special sort of someone to imagine they were there because they went to listen to the band.
19:56 asciilifeform kanzure: really nobody gives half a shit
19:57 asciilifeform i presume that d00d knows because he is not unintelligent.
19:57 kanzure you don't give me giga shits?
19:57 mircea_popescu you understand this is how the shit works, yes ? there's the bars, and there's the bar flies, and there's the indie bands. the relationship between all three is entirely coincidental.
19:57 mircea_popescu people-who-go-to-conferences, ie bar flies, will at any point be in a conference hall. this has no relation to anything else.
19:57 asciilifeform now i have nfi actually re kanzure . but boneh knows very well what he's doing.
19:58 kanzure https://cseweb.ucsd.edu/~mihir/papers/multisignatures-ccs.pdf
19:58 mircea_popescu people-who-talk-at-conferences, ie indie bands, will at any point also be in a conference hall.
19:58 asciilifeform his nuremberg defense will be challenging.
19:58 mircea_popescu the whole thing is driven by the bar.
19:58 asciilifeform so kanzure wouldja humour me, and say to me why i cannot compress a 1000TB backup into a 1024byte sig
19:58 mircea_popescu ie, if it has seats and a stage there's going to be some kind of fly land on each.
19:58 asciilifeform and get it out again
19:58 kanzure anyway thanks for the encouragement about public releasing (d|i)arpa notes
19:59 kanzure why are you doing compression
19:59 asciilifeform to show how ludicrous the claim of 'aggregate N signatures into fixed space'
19:59 kanzure i thought this was about authorization
19:59 asciilifeform it is about informationtheoretical impossibility of the claim, period
19:59 asciilifeform and the inadmissibility of lossy operations in crypto
20:00 mircea_popescu you're so far from any kind of shared priors, there's absolutely no possible result here.
20:00 asciilifeform and the people who made devil's bargain with usg, supposed 'academics' who lie for money like the lowest crack whore does not.
20:01 asciilifeform mircea_popescu: i do regularly try to find some shared prior.
20:01 mircea_popescu i would say the matter's come to its natural conclusion : dude's came up with any of the usual explanation of why i'm rich and he's poor ; and will continue with his idiotic tack indefinitely.
20:01 asciilifeform hm i must've missed this thread
20:01 mircea_popescu asciilifeform it is strictly impossible to have. he is dedicated to being stupid, and i suspect by now too old for any change to be even arguably +ev.

20:03 asciilifeform but my telepsychiatron is broken, so can't say.
20:03 kanzure can you give me proof of poor here. wat?
20:03 mircea_popescu asciilifeform i suspect that distinction is not meaningful. pregnant woman is neither whore nor victim. she's pregnant.
20:03 asciilifeform kanzure: approx. that you might have $B but you can't send it to isis.
20:04 asciilifeform and so it ain't actually yours.
20:04 asciilifeform but not limited to this.
20:04 kanzure so i should make my own isis
20:04 mircea_popescu you should shut up of your own steam, really.
20:04 asciilifeform step 1 is to not surround self with provocateurs, e.g. boneh & co.
20:05 asciilifeform or will last approx as long as the new york deathray d00d.
20:06 BingoBoingo !~step 1
20:06 jhvh1 BingoBoingo: Error: "step" is not a valid command.
20:06 BingoBoingo !~step1
20:06 asciilifeform step 2 is to omfg get a civilized chan log for yerself, kanzure , the .txt full of joinpart spamola is srsly sad
20:06 jhvh1 1. We admitted we were powerless over alcohol—that our lives had become unmanageable.
20:06 BingoBoingo !~step2
20:06 jhvh1 2. Came to believe that a Power greater than ourselves could restore us to sanity.
20:07 asciilifeform BingoBoingo: you gotta wait for the man to ~take~ to drink before he can quit it!11
20:07 BingoBoingo Most importantly
20:07 BingoBoingo !~step4
20:07 jhvh1 4. Made a searching and fearless moral inventory of ourselves.
20:07 BingoBoingo asciilifeform: lol, the drink is a symptom
20:07 mircea_popescu BingoBoingo the conceptualization of one being an utter fucktard can't happen in the comfortably idiotic.
20:07 mircea_popescu alcohol is a muchly preferable addiction to usgtronic stupidity in that it actually DOES something.
20:07 asciilifeform step 3 may be to stop doing dancytricks for darpa/iarpa/fucktarpa for pocket change, esp. if yer already 'rich'
20:07 BingoBoingo !~step3
20:07 jhvh1 3. Made a decision to turn our will and our lives over to the care of God as we understood Him.
20:08 mircea_popescu but being dumb in the female way, especially if not biologically female, can not possibly have any physical effects.
20:08 BingoBoingo ^ AHA alf
20:08 asciilifeform i got out of that racket an' have 0 regrets

20:12 BingoBoingo Now this is novel
20:12 BingoBoingo Or prolly not
20:12 mircea_popescu asciilifeform vaguely funny anecdote re this : someone introduced woman to me in ba. clearly pro cocksucker who's seen better days ; had retired into a marriage but chosen ineptly, was now peniless trying to make ends meet out of realestate agenting.
20:12 BingoBoingo anyways brb
20:13 asciilifeform BingoBoingo: nah d00d dun work with darpa, he works with iarpa, darpa is stolid old pentagon, iarpa - nsa
20:13 mircea_popescu she invites us to this art whatever the fuck, in a loft downtown. we actually go! and there, whole festival of locking doors ands where's your id and whatnot.
20:13 mod6 mircea_popescu: woah, the next generation is hawt.
20:13 mircea_popescu i told the girly where to shove it, and she had to "ask" and whatnot. just as he was coming back witrh the "oh, no id needed anymore" updated policy i was getting the doorman to open the fucking door before i crack it open with his face.
20:14 mircea_popescu moral of the story being, women left to rot in their own juice come up withe the same inept bullshit at darpa or at argentina.
20:14 BingoBoingo <asciilifeform> BingoBoingo: nah d00d dun work with darpa, he works with iarpa, darpa is stolid old pentagon, iarpa - nsa << This does not exonerate the yeast's herald from being a herald of his yeastly superiors
20:15 asciilifeform BingoBoingo: as an ex-sufferer of 'hm, they're giving out money for dancytrick, how do i print 100MB using liquid shit on wattman paper' -- i grasp the fundamentals
20:15 mircea_popescu that's you know, how it's going to be communicated to me that we're in an ~~~exclusive~~~ millieu of great value and vehement importance! by complicated locking mechanisms. cuz i
20:15 mircea_popescu i'm a dumb cunt just like them and imagine the value of my precious kitty is related to how many textile layers i keep it under.

22:45 mircea_popescu PeterL makes perfect sense.
22:49 mircea_popescu the problem with the spec as-is is that you can't actually have a message of the same bitsize as the key, but must make it -1 ; this appears to be mentioned exactly NOWHERE, which is moderately concerning.
22:49 PeterL and do you make it -1 bit or -1 byte?
22:50 mircea_popescu bit should suffice ; but might not be practically useful.
22:53 mircea_popescu incidentally, should prolly take a look at http://www.shoup.net/papers/oaep.pdf also
22:55 PeterL what is this, mircea_popescu linking a pdf?!? the scandal!
22:55 mircea_popescu (tl;dr : here's proof oaep is insecure ; original "proofs" wrong ; rsa-oaep is not insecure by accident, due to rsa properteis ; here's oaep+ fixed by me to actually work)
22:55 mircea_popescu PeterL i also sent an email earlier this week. the world's ending.
22:57 PeterL by the way, I stuffed the keccak ada stuff (and, speaking of OAEP, here is one of those too) into https://github.com/PeterMLambert/keccak since I don't have my own server up yet
23:08 BingoBoingo OMG Police adopting filthy hippy tactics nao: "They marched to the on-ramp of I-64 at Clark Street, but officers on bicycles formed a human chain to prevent them from shutting down highway traffic. The protesters left that area without any physical confrontations."

23:14 BingoBoingo It's their taken version 'we r anon, no raep us back pls; k thx bye'
23:15 PeterL With RSA-OAEP, one can encrypt messages whose bit-length is up to just a few hundred bits less than the number of bits in the RSA modulus, yielding a ciphertext whose size is the same as that of the RSA modulus. << It sounds like he is using a smaller amount of random bits than we are?
23:22 PeterL Why is it that papers written by one guy still insist on using the "We" form for all the things they do?
