structure is being reconstructed, which at the very far edge of course looks quite immoral. everything does. the civilising of barbarians, be they africans or 5 year olds, the birth of capitaism, |

all attacks of a complex, superior system upon a primitive look like rape. in a sense they are. |

| 13:16 |
mircea_popescu |
The scary thing was that I only thought of the true implications of this attack days later. As I was contemplating what had happened and how I could prevent it in the future, a very frightening thought occurred to me. This attacker started with Amazon because he knew that a commerce shopping sites customer support would be relatively easy to convince and use to gain access to my account. However, that same site offe |
| 13:16 |
mircea_popescu |
rs cloud services that many startups rely on to host their data. My startup, Droplr, is completely based on Amazons stack, from using EC2 servers where we host all of our technology to S3, which we use for file storage. This attacker had access to all of it. I was extremely lucky that in his rush to gain access to @jb, he didnt think to check if my account had anything under AWS. |

mike_c if you're really paranoid you can locally generate and sign pushes after each stat. |

mircea_popescu |
that way, even if you lose your key you can wipe your account for later. |
| 13:29 |

do you understand the model i mean ? |
| 13:29 |
mike_c |
yeah |
| 13:30 |
mircea_popescu |
like you now use key a, and spare is key b. after each stat for each asset push x to b signed and stored. |
| 13:30 |
mircea_popescu |
yeah |
| 13:30 |
davout |
why after each stat? |
| 13:30 |
mircea_popescu |
you can store the stuff as a list encrypted to b |
| 13:30 |
mike_c |
after each stat so you push all your assets (which changes..) |
| 13:30 |
davout |
why not once for each asset with some high value |
| 13:30 |
mircea_popescu |
davout well that's the point where you find what assets you have. |
| 13:31 |
davout |
just make a stat per asset, and add pushes as assets are added to mpex |
| 13:31 |
davout |
sorry a push per asset |
| 13:31 |

How do you not know? You are stupid, its so simple" And lets not forget my favorite one..."If you don't know how to buy it, you shouldn't be buying it" For a new person to crypto, its basically like going into a restaurant with really r |

mircea_popescu |
was that crowdsourced ? |
| 15:34 |
benkay |
nerds make tasteless jokes? |

"Everybody needs loving and understanding. People get their courage to live from loving and understanding. Understanding means listening and compassion. Rape victims have to gather their courage to live in order to stand on their dignity and to face future." |
| 15:34 |
benkay |
color me surprised. |
| 15:35 |
mircea_popescu |
fucking bullshit of the first degree, incidentally. |
| 15:35 |
mircea_popescu |
people don't get their "courage to live" from a bunch of other dorks. |
| 15:35 |
mircea_popescu |
it's inside or it's not present at all. |
| 15:36 |
benkay |
but a hug and a shoulder to cry on can help the poor abused kitten return to normal. |
| 15:36 |
nubbins` |
"Heather is a young rape victim. She would die if she could not stand on her dignity and no future. Unfortunately the persistent bullying online and calling her a "slut" in her community show that nobody would listen her and there is no compassion towards her. A person willing to die causes the person's attempting suicide. Whether is Heather attempting a suicide?" |

why is part of canukistan named after two dogs? |
| |
↖ |
| 15:36 |
pankkake |
actually, the bunch of other dorks makes you want to kill yourself more |
| 15:36 |
nubbins` |
dub: the obvious answer is the correct one. |
| 15:36 |
dub |
crack smoking mayors? |
| 15:36 |
nubbins` |
...that's the obvious answer? |
| 15:37 |
dub |
crack has to come into it clearly |
| 15:37 |
nubbins` |
actual answer is that both breeds originated from here |
| 15:38 |
nubbins` |
they have a common ancestor in the St. John's water dog |
| 15:38 |
dub |
seems unlikely |
| 15:38 |
nubbins` |
well, that's the funny thing about "seems" |
| 15:39 |
nubbins` |
not as funny as the fact that the newfoundland dog was bred in labrador and the labrador retriever was bred in newfoundland |
| 15:39 |
nubbins` |
but hey, what can ya do |
| 15:39 |

mircea_popescu |
so basically if you can't reach in the top cabinet, |
| 15:44 |
mircea_popescu |
you can ask for the dog to get it. |
| 15:45 |
nubbins` |
yeah exactly! |
| 15:45 |
jcpham |
imagine if it chews anything |
| 15:45 |
jcpham |

| 15:46 |
nubbins` |
i can't recall if newfoundlands were bred from labs |
| 15:46 |
jcpham |
might get bored and chew the middle or top of a door frame |
| 15:46 |
nubbins` |
or vice versa |
| 15:46 |
nubbins` |
anyway, i generally don't like dogs at all, but these big fluffy fuckers are great |
| 15:46 |
jcpham |
i'd hate trying to dominate and train it too |

like pitbulls etc. |
| 15:47 |
jcpham |
large male indoor dogs have to be dominated yo |
| 15:48 |
nubbins` |
nah, they call these things "gentle giants" |
| 15:48 |
jcpham |
i'd stare at it until it sits it's ass down |
| 15:48 |
ThickAsThieves |
i had a gf that had a newfie, they are very gentle, but also kinda fragile |
| 15:48 |
jcpham |
gentle giant and everything |

nubbins` |
webbed feet, great swimmers |
| 15:49 |
ThickAsThieves |
they live what 6-9 years? |

but if it's labrador genome it's probably docile |

thanks mircea_popescu, still a bit wide eyed in life has to be said. explanation: gvt are investigating bitcoin in scotland and the procurator fiscals have decided its bad and dodgy etc etc and they are having another conference. I had wondered if it might help if someone explained where they are wrong |
| 16:23 |

really? happily noted |
| 16:25 |

so wait...i thought he bought the option to buy like 5-10k btc if price falls below 500 or whatever he chose (some 470 445 and 410). how is this a long play? |
| 16:25 |
mircea_popescu |
o, that. so go to #bitcoin-assets-trades for all the dust. |
| 16:25 |
mircea_popescu |
kingofsports mno, he sold puts. |
| 16:25 |
jurov |
either they got margin from mp or they needed 50k collateral O.o |
| 16:25 |
kingofsports |
to who? mpex buys puts? i thought u just wrote them |

this shit is so confusing. on mpoe it says $500 strike price. put option. a put cant be a strike price above the current price...2nd why would mpex pay .488 BTC per 1 BTC option for $5000 strike price. that is an insane fee. i wouldnt pay more than 0.05 |

kingofsports mpoe bot bought 1k lots of .1 btc for .488 each, worth 488 total |

so for .488 BTC you have the ability to buy how many BTC option wise for $5000 should it reach that pricew? |

puts present value is (strike - spot) / spot. |

but i'm still kinda clueless. |

kay. |
| 21:50 |
nubbins` |
inflation refers to good increasing in price |
| 21:50 |
nubbins` |
not necessarily because of an expansion of the money supply |
| 21:50 |
nubbins` |
although that's usually the cause |
| 21:51 |
asciilifeform |
nubbins`: or, more subtly, failing to decrease in price. |
| 21:51 |
nubbins` |
sure, yes. |
| 21:51 |
mircea_popescu |
nubbins` inflation has nothing to do with price. |
| 21:51 |
asciilifeform |
(when applicable - 'moore's law' and sequelae, etc) |
| 21:51 |
nubbins` |
but x bitcoins buys more goods over time |
| 21:51 |
mircea_popescu |
inflation is a discussion of monetary base. |
| 21:51 |
mircea_popescu |
if tomorrow i invent a new way to make cakes, and cake prices drop 95% |
| 21:52 |
mircea_popescu |
this does not mean there's been inflation in the currency |
| 21:52 |
mircea_popescu |
(perhaps in the cakes, i guess) |
| 21:52 |
herbijudlestoids |
^ |
| 21:52 |
nubbins` |
sure, but inflation refers to the general increase |
| 21:52 |

asshole scams me for 1.6btc > denies it > emails for the new website url = areyoufuckingshittingme? feel like emailing back saying sure thing fuckwit, url costs 1.6BTC |

not any one specific item |
| 21:52 |
mircea_popescu |
of the monetary base. |
| 21:52 |
asciilifeform |
but if the crown decides to crank up the printing press until cakes cost the same... |
| 21:52 |
nubbins` |
you can't say that there's deflation because pumpkins are cheap on november 1. |
| 21:53 |
mircea_popescu |
prices aren't a reference point for inflation tho, this is like saying she's a good lay cause she's a redhead. |
| 21:53 |
herbijudlestoids |
nubbins`: the modern definition of inflation is bullshit, its hedonistically adjusted and the general price includes all sorts of nonsense, which is completely disparately defined across countries |
| 21:53 |
mircea_popescu |
people say it all the time, but what of it. |
| 21:53 |
nubbins` |
sure |
| 21:54 |
nubbins` |
i can't speak to past definitions, but everything i'm reading says that the thing which is inflating is the price of goods |
| 21:54 |
herbijudlestoids |
soooo...defining inflation as a general price level increase is extremely fuzzy |
| 21:54 |
mircea_popescu |
well you're reading business insider then |
| 21:54 |
nubbins` |
heh |
| 21:54 |
nubbins` |
hey now |
| 21:55 |
nubbins` |
okay, so if inflationary/deflationary is out |
| 21:56 |
nubbins` |
how do you verbally differentiate between a currency where purchasing power increases over time, and one where it decreases? |
| 21:56 |
nubbins` |
(no saucy answers plz) |
| 21:56 |
mircea_popescu |
purchasing power in what sense ? |
| 21:56 |
mircea_popescu |
as opposed to another ? |
| 21:57 |
nubbins` |
say, herpcoins where it's cheaper to buy an apple tomorrow than today |
| 21:57 |
nubbins` |
or derpdollars where it's cheaper to buy the apple today |
| 21:57 |
herbijudlestoids |
also purchasing power is a better proxy than inflation, because you can have inflation where the purchasing power of a dollar goes up, but also inflatoin where the purchasing power of a dollar goes down |
| 21:58 |
mircea_popescu |
nubbins` what's wrong with just saying "herpcoins has increased ppp and derpd's has decreased ppp ?" |
| 21:58 |
nubbins` |
i don't know how much apple i get, that's what's wrong |
| 21:58 |
herbijudlestoids |
^ |
| 21:58 |
mircea_popescu |
wait what ?! |
| 21:58 |
nubbins` |
haha |
| 21:58 |
mircea_popescu |
these are macro discussions |
| 21:58 |
mircea_popescu |
why do you expect they do anything to any one apple ? |
| 21:59 |
nubbins` |
how many apples are in the bag i'm buying, whatever |
| 21:59 |
herbijudlestoids |
then what he is saying is correct nubbins` |
| 21:59 |
herbijudlestoids |
because you are only asking about PP, not inflation! |
| 21:59 |
nubbins` |
sure |
| 21:59 |
mircea_popescu |
for that matter, how do you know it's the currency ? |
| 22:00 |
herbijudlestoids |
^ |
| 22:00 |
mircea_popescu |
maybe derpland has a bumper apple crop and herpfields a shortage. |
| 22:00 |
mircea_popescu |
maybe the one yearly boat taking apples from d to h sunk that year |
| 22:00 |
mircea_popescu |
i mean wtf, how did you end up pinning the world on the currency ? |
| 22:00 |
nubbins` |
well until five minutes ago i laboured under the impression that a 'deflationary currency' was one where the purchasing power increased over time (i.e. the cost of goods decreases) |
| 22:00 |
herbijudlestoids |
i wonder if i invited FOFOA to chat here he would come |
| 22:00 |
mircea_popescu |
ok, but this is a very naive approach |
| 22:01 |
nubbins` |
but i think i've just never thought this through |
| 22:01 |
mircea_popescu |
herbijudlestoids so invite him |
| 22:01 |
nubbins` |
who's to say purchasing power is constant over time, etc |
| 22:01 |
mircea_popescu |
nubbins` do you think on average bigger cars are faster ? |
| 22:01 |
nubbins` |
hm |
| 22:01 |
herbijudlestoids |
nubbins`: it is not constant. varies in a nonstationary path |
| 22:01 |
mircea_popescu |
i mean to some very general degree this'd perhaps be true... |
| 22:01 |
mircea_popescu |
at least within some margins... |
| 22:01 |
nubbins` |
okay, no, i definitely had my cart before my horse here |

| 22:23 |
mircea_popescu |
there's no iq. |
| 22:23 |
herbijudlestoids |
asciilifeform: i just meant, higher prices can entice supply |
| 22:23 |
jborkl |
Well you have to divide IQ by # of sock puppet accts |
| 22:23 |
jborkl |
So it is almost 0 |
| 22:24 |
herbijudlestoids |
therefore the supply is not fixed, its just constrained by price |

homomorphic crypto seems to have the ancient appeal of other proven impossibilities, like perpetuum mobile. |

I am a co-author of the research quoted in the article. I realize it is likely pointless to write this comment in an Internet forum, but let me attempt to clarify the situation, in the hope that some thoughtful participants will find it useful. Please note: I will not be monitoring this forum in the future. If you are a researcher, please feel free to contact me. |

1) The title is misleading: secure obfuscation does not necessarily create "unhackable" software, whatever that means. |
| 22:46 |
asciilifeform |
2) Secure obfuscation is a mathematical term of art. It is unfortunate that the word "obfuscation" has an ordinary meaning that is very different than what we mean. An analogy might be the word "countable" which for mathematicians usually refers to infinite sets, while lay readers would likely not think this way. |
| 22:46 |
asciilifeform |
3) The right way to think of what secure obfuscation allows is to create, *under many technical conditions*, software that has secrets built into it. These secrets are used by the software to compute output, and yet the secrets remain hidden even if an attacker obtains the entire machine-level code of the software, which of course the attacker could run and analyze. Thus the attacker would be able to *use* the |
| 22:46 |
asciilifeform |
secrets only in the way that the software allows, but not recover these secrets in any way beyond that. |
| 22:46 |
nubbins` |
but how do you have disqussions? |
| 22:46 |
asciilifeform |
4) In no direct way does secure obfuscation have anything to with DRM, software copy protection, etc. |
| 22:46 |
asciilifeform |
5) Obfuscation is really a terrible name, but unfortunately it is the mathematical term that has become widely used in the academic (non-hacker) community. |
| 22:46 |
asciilifeform |
6) All of this is based on mathematical computational assumptions, which may be proven false by future algorithmic advances. |

turns out it wasn't pointless! |
| 22:48 |
asciilifeform |
so let's say you have a homomorphic turd that signs arbitrary giblets with your key (which, for the sake of argument, assume cannot be extracted, as claimed) |
| 22:48 |
mircea_popescu |
ok |
| 22:49 |
asciilifeform |
and on top of that, is only willing to sign giblets beginning with 1. |
| 22:49 |
asciilifeform |
so fine. i extract the turd and feed it whatever i like |
| 22:49 |
herbijudlestoids |
giblets? :D |
| 22:49 |
mircea_popescu |
it's a term of art. |
| 22:50 |
herbijudlestoids |
no, i meant, would he like to feed his turd giblets :P |
| 22:50 |
asciilifeform |
there is already a hard impossibility proof of turing-complete computation in a homomorphic turd. |
| |
↖ |
| 22:50 |
mircea_popescu |
that there is. |
| 22:50 |
mircea_popescu |
however! |
| 22:50 |
mircea_popescu |
you wouldn't be necessarily running a compiler there |
| 22:50 |
asciilifeform |
so you're stuck with some special-case exotica, that idiots will inevitably embed in conventional code. |
| 22:50 |
mircea_popescu |
and the case of futzing non-recursively with data is not covered. |
| 22:51 |
asciilifeform |
the whole field appears to be funded by the desperate 'media' conglomerates, who dream in their opium haze of unbreakable copy protection. |
| 22:51 |
mircea_popescu |
that'll never work. |
| 22:52 |
asciilifeform |
i live right outside of a big uni, whose comp sci dept. pisses out a never-ending supply of this crud. |
| 22:52 |
mircea_popescu |
what may work tho is indeed code that does the function of cardano in software. |
| 22:52 |
asciilifeform |
then the code is the key. |
| 22:52 |
mircea_popescu |
well yes. |
| 22:52 |
asciilifeform |
lift it, accomplish the same purpose. |
| 22:52 |
mircea_popescu |
same is true of the hw cardano. |
| 22:52 |
asciilifeform |
correct. |
| 22:53 |
mircea_popescu |
so inasfar as that, it may be the case homomorphic software can be in fact written that protects the key say |
| 22:53 |
asciilifeform |
anyone who wants 'software cardano' can grab 'gpg' today. |
| 22:53 |
mircea_popescu |
but w/o a pw. |
| 22:53 |
mircea_popescu |
make it be automated. |
| 22:54 |
mircea_popescu |
i'm not saying this is practically useful. |
| 22:54 |
mircea_popescu |
but it is mathematically interesting |
| 22:54 |
mircea_popescu |
or properly said, computer-scientifically. which is math anyway but w/e |
| 22:54 |
asciilifeform |
the building blocks of homomorphic crypto (say, the 'millionaires protocol') are certainly interesting, not only in the mathematical but practical sense. |
| 22:54 |
mircea_popescu |
well ya |
| 22:55 |
asciilifeform |
but for the subject of the article, one is left to wonder what problem is actually being solved |
| 22:55 |
mircea_popescu |
the article is in wired. |
| 22:55 |
mircea_popescu |
forgeddaboutit. |
| 22:55 |
mircea_popescu |
the problem itself tho, "make me gpg which keeps my key safge and uses no pw", is not trivial. |
| 22:55 |
mircea_popescu |
anyone solving this'd feel that particular elation. |
| 22:56 |
asciilifeform |
if it 'keeps key safe' via the whole proggy becoming the key, you haven't accomplished much |
| 22:56 |
mircea_popescu |
if the whole proggy is the key then it;s not safe ipso definitio |
| 22:56 |
asciilifeform |
i venture to say that the actual goal of general-purpose (or whatever approximation is possible) homomorphic crypto is quite different. |
| |

certain people would /love/ a mathematically-impenetrable boobytrap. |

that is, code with genuinely-hidden functionality |

mircea_popescu |
ask the guy what his research is for that list he made sometime. |
| 22:58 |
mircea_popescu |
asciilifeform both people could use this. |
| 22:58 |
asciilifeform |
so, worked example: |
| 22:58 |
asciilifeform |
a 'soft pgp' that appears to work fine, but when you encrypt a message to a certain pubkey, the message becomes 'eat shit and die' |
| 22:59 |
asciilifeform |
and this fact not being deducible from the code. |
| 22:59 |
mircea_popescu |
or a soft obamacare, which appears to work fine, but when your name is obama an email is sent to a certain address with your vaginal probe pics. |
| 23:00 |
mircea_popescu |
technology helps neither side. |
| 23:00 |
asciilifeform |
correct. ideally one should like to be on the 'correct end of the barrel' for this one. |
| 23:00 |
herbijudlestoids |
mircea_popescu: asked :) |
| 23:00 |
mircea_popescu |
there's no way to pick really. you're on both ends always |

it is thus useful to know how to tell which end of the barrel you are being placed on. |

| 23:11 |
asciilifeform |
in principle, 'all blades have two edges,' etc. but in practice, the one and only objective of the folks funding homomorphic is a kind of satanic opposite of my purpose outlined in 'don't blame the mice' |
| 23:11 |
asciilifeform |
they would like to create (and then mandate) computing machinery that cannot be audited for security even in principle. |
