the copyrasty problem will find its 'final solution' in a rather elegant, if traumatic, way. the various american 'industries' that form the brain & body of copyrasty (film, music, dead tree publishing) will be done in by the banal fact of their customers having nothing to spend. |

asciilifeform that's not my perspective, though we don't disagree. in my view of the matter, they will be done in by the fact that the intersection of thinking people and copyright observers will become the null set. |

asciilifeform |
'shall be delivered.' |
| 17:01 |
asciilifeform |
at any rate, it seems like we're on the path to a 'patch-chain' - so no chance of authorship being permanently obscured, unless everyone somehow manages to lose his backup |
| 17:02 |
jurov |
btw if other people will sign a concrete patch, that prevents later diddling anyway |

the signed patches should provide watertight alibis for the innocent, and unquestionable smoking guns for the guilty - but a sufficiently 'pants and suspenders' approach should send a message to enemy against even trying. |

aye, but then why fixed byte strings |
| 17:51 |
mircea_popescu |
Apocalyptic not considered read, but weak digest. good idea to upgrade. |
| 17:51 |
mircea_popescu |
asciilifeform to make it as independent as possible ? |
| 17:51 |
mircea_popescu |
much simpler machines to work it if it knows a straight offset |
| 17:52 |
asciilifeform |
mircea_popescu: that's not the issue. just about everyone is putting ascii through some raper that mutilates unprintables (www browsers, toy operating systems, etc) |
| 17:52 |
asciilifeform |
this wouldn't be a problem except if you have fixed fields |
| 17:52 |
asciilifeform |
which will frame-shift as the contents get procrusted by the idiot code |
| 17:53 |
Apocalyptic |
just noticed that all deeds processed by deadbot are SHA1-hashed so far |

| 17:57 |
mircea_popescu |
asciilifeform obviously, since fixed length, it can go back to the end of the file. |
| 17:57 |
mircea_popescu |
proggy gets 65kb file, cuts 16k off its end recursively, spits out 1kb of text signed by 4 people |
| 17:57 |
mircea_popescu |
and again, armored. nothing but letters and digits in there. not even +/ etc. |
| 17:58 |
asciilifeform |
mircea_popescu: when idiot www crud or os (anywhere in the chain) starts gnawing at your line endings, or adding line noise, you blow the fixed frame |

anyway, thgis is more an aesthetic consideratyion. ditching symmetric cyphers is the more substantial thing, and since a reimplementation happenes, might as well add aesthetics. |

don't misunderstand, i like the 'fixed fields' idea, but am also aware that shitgnome excretions in a hundred places in commonplace toolchains will silently screw with it. |

mircea_popescu: fermat primes. |

asciilifeform |
iirc |
| 18:25 |
asciilifeform |
afaik 65537 is largest known fermat prime. |
| 18:25 |
mircea_popescu |
you telling me the rsa e must be a fermat prime ? why ? |
| 18:26 |
asciilifeform |
it doesn't need to be. |
| 18:26 |
asciilifeform |
but does need to be prime. |
| 18:26 |
mircea_popescu |
afaik it's only used because easy to compute, two 1's merged into a word |
| 18:26 |

yes, that is why used. |

but anyway, why's e have to be prime ? |
| 18:27 |
asciilifeform |
work it out |
| 18:27 |
mircea_popescu |
the idea is just for (q-1)(p-1) and e to be relatively prime |
| 18:27 |
mircea_popescu |
which isn't that hard to test |
| 18:28 |
mircea_popescu |
(and for that matter, it IS quite fucking possible for the current, fixed e implementation to spit out badly coded stuff every once in a blue moon, when the p q happen to be a multiple of 65537) |

asciilifeform |

| 18:29 |
mircea_popescu |
well ? |

"pick 32 onbit 64bit random numbers, test for cd" is a much better approach |

rsa is only possible because we have probabilistic primality tests for bignums up to arbitrary certainty |
| 18:32 |

anyway. p and q are primes. p-1 and p-1 being necessarily even, will probably have some factors. these factors could just as well be 65537 |

the odds are low but present. |

(and, for the record, when i suggested to ben_vulpes that he did not need to live fire, it was because it was a removal of ifdefs that were switched off, which, if done correctly, would yield a bitwise-identical binary.) |
| 18:49 |
mircea_popescu |
i would like the difference between "dropped plate on my toe" and "fell on naked woman holding her heels while naked" to be obvious to the naked eye |
| 18:49 |
ben_vulpes |
so merges should only happen when k l m n o have already signed patch |
| 18:49 |
mircea_popescu |
and i want the record of accidental "dropped on my toe" events recorder permanently. |

the entire "foss is better because read by millions of eyes" fetish needs to be put to rest already. opportunity does not equal actualisation. |

my model will allow a specific list to be created. this was read in fact by 5468 people. these ones : |

asciilifeform |
millions'o'flies. |
| 18:54 |
asciilifeform |
>> codewot. |
| 18:54 |
mircea_popescu |
moreover, by putting the sexy back into reading code, it actually directly addresses the problem. currently people only read shit AFTER a bug was found. |
| 18:55 |

asciilifeform confesses that he very frequently reads, with evil eyes, things in which nothing has of yet been found. |

| 18:56 |
ben_vulpes |
so i begin to wonder if i'm at all a good person to handle merges, given my lack of experience with cpp |
| 18:57 |
* |
asciilifeform would volunteer to take the place of poor ben_vulpes but is rather busy |
| 18:57 |
ben_vulpes |
i've been staring at it and it's not unintelligble -- horrible, but not unintelligible -- but given things like obfuscated c competition i don't think i'm actually a good technical choice for the role |
| 18:57 |
asciilifeform |
anyway handling merges as such - the physicalities of it - is not hard. |
| 18:57 |
thestringpuller |
asciilifeform: who else is going to handle making sure turd consistency stays constant? |
| 18:57 |
asciilifeform |

ben_vulpes |
asciilifeform: but how theoretically would i know what to merge? |
| 18:57 |
thestringpuller |
you are a masterful turd-smith |
| 18:57 |
mircea_popescu |
ben_vulpes technical choice ? these are all political choices. |

| 18:58 |
asciilifeform |
why not, say, mircea_popescu |
| 18:58 |
ben_vulpes |
choice for the technical role perhaps would be a better phrasing |
| 18:58 |
* |
asciilifeform would bite ze bullet & do it, for a small fee. |
| 18:59 |
ben_vulpes |
is the goal (eg political) to find some poor usian schmuck to take on hearn et al and risk full audit of all things, stopping and frisking by every passing police officer? |
| 18:59 |
* |
asciilifeform has pet that needs some attention, will be back. |

mircea_popescu |
uh |
| 18:59 |
ben_vulpes |
or political in the sense of 'forum' |
| 19:00 |
mircea_popescu |
no, the political goal is to allow people who are interested in doing things the right way at the levers where things are done the right way. |
| 19:01 |
mircea_popescu |
this may require particular grips, depending on how the lever happen to be constructed. the hands will adjust. |

| 19:06 |
ben_vulpes |

| 19:07 |

fresh set of signed blobs in *.org/releases? |
| 19:07 |

these crickets suggest that the chairs must make this decision. |

"Thats quite a list. The trend he puts at the top of his list is blockchain, the underlying technology behind Bitcoin, which he says is the megatrend with the biggest potential to bring change to the financial services sector |

<cazalla> ya know, over the past month i've been reading articles, there has been many fluff pieces that keep pushing this idea that bitcoin the technology is what is valuable and not the "currency" <<< yep. classic approach.

"We also need to find the sender's address, so we know where to send the money. This is done by looking at the inputs of the original transaction. The transaction can have multiple inputs that are all under the control of the sending party. We just send everything back to one of the input addresses at random." |

I think it's somewhat novel, but I'm not quite the resident expert |

nor am I clear on what the best method of encoding the data would be |
| 23:52 |
undata |
if it were addresses, goodbye coin |

but a small amount wouldn't hurt that bad |

decimation |
undata: signing stuff in the blockchain was discussed a few weeks ago |
| 23:53 |
decimation |
I think the conclusion was that you would make a blob and then put the hash in the blockchain somehow |
| 23:54 |
undata |
then distribute the blob? |
| 23:54 |
undata |
there's some synthesis of these ideas that works |
| 23:54 |
undata |
I've thought a lot about spending magnet links into the blockchain too |
| 23:55 |
undata |
potential mechanism for doing storage for anything that's hard to cram into transactions |
| 23:55 |
decimation |
Yeah you would have to have some method of referencing the blob |
| 23:56 |

are you familiar with the deedbot? |

yes, that is the point of it |
| 23:58 |
undata |
I'm thinking you could implement something like a database index which is the distributed content of a given magnet link |
| 23:58 |
undata |
which could reference other transactions which are other magnet links |
| 23:58 |
undata |
turn the thing into a hash db with references |
