The day when it was revealed that Cadbury’s Creme Eggs have changed for ever. |

No longer shall the egg shell be made from delicious Cadbury Dairy Milk chocolate. It will instead be made from disgusting, foul, vomit-inducing “standard cocoa mix chocolate”. |
| 01:45 |
pete_dushenski |
^ok this is lulzy |
| 01:45 |
pete_dushenski |
The spokesman said the new chocolate had been tested on “consumers” – industry shorthand for “idiots”, clearly – and had been “found to be the best one for Creme Egg”. |
| 01:46 |
pete_dushenski |
Already, this egg announcement is threatening the stability of the UK government. What havoc will this monster wreak next? |
| 01:46 |
pete_dushenski |
Are we really going to swallow this bad egg, America? For that is what Cadbury has wrought. A bad egg. And today will for ever be known as a bad day. |

but if the source is a lamp humming 60hz how does the algo filter the pattern from the entropy without diluting the entropy? |
| 01:54 |
Chillum |
I know that algo, it removes bunching. It does not remove more complex patterns |
| 01:54 |
mircea_popescu |
it doesn't "dilute" anything. if you have 1 bit of entropy per byte, it puts out one byte every eightish bytes. |
| 01:55 |
pete_dushenski |
mircea_popescu: sounds like 'repositioning' the creme egg in the uk is akin to 'repositioning' baby george's nose from his face to his ass. |
| 01:55 |
mircea_popescu |
it removes bias, basically. |
| 01:55 |
Chillum |
bias is only one type of pattern though |
| 01:55 |
Chillum |
there is also periodicity |
| 01:55 |
mircea_popescu |
in the case of your lamp, it basically extracts phase transition errors |
| 01:55 |
mircea_popescu |
expect ~1/2 bit per phase change |
| 01:56 |

my point was that debiasing will not remove periodic patterns |

Chillum eventually it'll be running bitcoind |
| 10:38 |
Chillum |
Nice. I tried that on a Pi 1 but it chocked |
| 10:38 |
nubbins` |
this particular one got its NAND rewritten in a not-fun way, so i'm gonna be adding a serial port |
| 10:38 |
Chillum |
Trying now on a Pi 2 and it is going well( at 250,000 block) |
| 10:38 |
nubbins` |
Chillum prolly 'cause you're using the latest phoundation bloatware |
| 10:39 |
nubbins` |
if you've a mind to try again on your pi1 (and have a cross-compile toolchain set up), i'd suggest http://thebitcoin.foundation/bitcoin-v0_5_3_1-RELEASE.tar.gz |
| 10:39 |

There is so little information on that site about what the changes actually are or how they have been audited. It seems to have been made in November. It would be a bit like running a custom code version of PGP |
| 10:41 |
Chillum |
the security implications are significant |
| 10:42 |
Chillum |
is there a changelog? |
| 10:42 |
nubbins` |
yes |
| 10:42 |
nubbins` |
it's based on the historical 0.5.3 |
| 10:42 |
nubbins` |
with a bunch of plain unix patches applied |
| 10:43 |
nubbins` |
there's a RELEASE NOTES included that lists the patches applied |
| 10:43 |
Chillum |
I will keep an eye on the project |
| 10:43 |
nubbins` |
but if you're so inclined, you could actually just grab legacy 0.5.3 from your favourite source, and apply the patches listed on the site |
| 10:43 |
nubbins` |
they're all small enough that you can fit each one inside your head enough to understand it |
| 10:43 |
Chillum |
Glad it is still being worked on. But frankly I would like to see a complete re-write of the client |
| |
↖ |
| 10:44 |
nubbins` |
yeah |
| 10:44 |
nubbins` |
well, that's an eventual goal |

nubbins` |
right now people are just ripping the turds out |

there's the patch, you tell me 8) |

Chillum |
I am sure the change makes it run faster which is great for embedded devices that don't need to worry _too_ much about malware on the machine |
| 10:49 |
nubbins` |
the idea here is to get a bare-bones reference implementation |
| 10:50 |
nubbins` |
it might come with some sharp corners |
| 10:50 |
Chillum |
but I am making a security app for a client. Security is a priority over speed. |
| 10:50 |
Chillum |
May try that out for my own purposes |

nubbins` |
asciilifeform would be the one to question about the specifics of it 8) |

| |
↖ |
| 10:50 |
Chillum |
I can understand it. It is removing a security layer, presumably for speed |
| 10:51 |
Chillum |
though all of that can be disabled in config |
| 10:51 |
nubbins` |
sure |
| 10:52 |
Chillum |
better hope nobody packet sniffs your API access. |
| 10:52 |
nubbins` |
this whole thing started with asciilifeform wishing he had bitcoin source code in dead-tree form |
| 10:52 |
Chillum |
if it is all internal it should be fine |
| 10:52 |
Chillum |
my box needs to expose its API though |
| 10:53 |
Chillum |
A great idea for a light node though, if the security situation permits it |
| 10:53 |
Chillum |
The page could use more information about the security implications and the expected use case though. Someone might get told it is the latest and greatest and not realize security has been bypassed |
| 10:54 |
Chillum |
really SSL is not using that much horse power compared to the other stuff the client does |

I have worked in computer security for 15 years. While many implementations of SSL host checking are flawed and the hierarchial trust model is a joke the underlying encryption is solid until some learns to find prime factors of large numbers easily. |
| 12:10 |

he did. |
| 12:36 |
mircea_popescu |
someone else ? |
| 12:36 |
Chillum |
though it will use a cold-wallet reserve system to minimize exposure |
| 12:36 |
ben_vulpes |
perhaps throw an error on boot if someone tries to use the tls flags. |
| 12:36 |
mircea_popescu |
Chillum : better plan, sign your txn off the hot box, import them there through private connection. |
| 12:36 |

again, needs to be automated |

firewalls are finnicy to setup, but once correctly setup on a linux box they're reliable. |

ben_vulpes it'd be one way nah ? from his wallet to the node. not the other way. |

mircea_popescu: well something has to poke the wallet in an automated fashion |
| 12:40 |
mircea_popescu |
why ? |
| 12:40 |
nubbins` |
all of those things are possible and if you press alf he'll admit that he expects all three |
| 12:40 |
ben_vulpes |
because he's building a robo-remitter?! |
| 12:40 |
Chillum |
ben_vulpes: That is always a risk with a hot wallet, but if the system needs to be automated then what is the alternative? |
| 12:41 |
Chillum |
If the solution being offered is an air-gap then that only works in certain scenarios |
| 12:41 |

an airgap is merely a golden standard BECAUSE it disallows automation. there's ipso definitio no automated airgap. |

Security is easy if you have to manually approve each and every transaction |
| 12:42 |

not so easy and quite expensive, which is why alternatives are always tempting. but go on ? |

ben_vulpes |
what are you building. |
| 12:42 |
Chillum |
most companies want tools that work without their intervention |
| 12:42 |
asciilifeform |
(note to n00bs - this is a good place to point out that the 'air' in an airgap is more than physical concept: i.e. a machine controlled via radio in real time is not 'airgapped') |
| 12:42 |
mircea_popescu |
most people want trees that shit prune juice too. |
| 12:43 |
ben_vulpes |
pre-fermented at that |
| 12:43 |
Chillum |
consider the use case of a service that rents say minecraft servers by the hour. The user need to be able to establish a balance and later withdraw their balance when they are done in a reasonable amount of time |

mircea_popescu |
ben_vulpes he basically wants trilema credits for whatever. |

well the issue with bitcoin hosting is lack of accountability. The guy who is renting the servers to the bitcoin anon will get the abuse complaints when they spam |
| 12:45 |
mircea_popescu |
nah, all wot based. |
| 12:45 |
mircea_popescu |
you only work with !rated ppls. |
| 12:45 |
Chillum |
which is why software as a service is a better option |
| 12:45 |
mircea_popescu |
neah. |
| 12:46 |
Chillum |
well mircea I can write a wrapper for AWS that accepts bitcoins from people on a whitelist |
| 12:46 |
Chillum |
it will be a lot of work to do it securely though |
| 12:46 |
mircea_popescu |
most everyone here can spin an aws in ten minutes. |
| 12:46 |
Chillum |
but if there is demand and a willingness to pay a reasonable markup |
| 12:46 |
mircea_popescu |
the idea is to get bare metal. |
| 12:46 |
asciilifeform |
Chillum: can't speak for others but i in particular am interested specifically in migrating -from- aws |
| 12:47 |
asciilifeform |
aws is the 'mcdonalds' of hosting. |

| 12:51 |
Chillum |
Instead of renting servers send cheap computers to volunteers for free. Will be cheaper in the long run |
| 12:51 |
mircea_popescu |
asciilifeform if you recall, his argument 10 minutes ago stated correctly that "people will install anything at any time for any reason |
| 12:51 |
Chillum |
just make sure you remove the bootloader so they can't reflash it |
| 12:51 |
mircea_popescu |
but usually for no reason at all." |
| 12:51 |
Chillum |
otherwise people will volunteer for free hardware |

mircea_popescu |
Chillum you gotta understand how the wot works. |

it works great, but only to a certain scale |

mircea_popescu |
and you know this because... |
| 12:52 |
Chillum |
well can the WoT give you 20,000 volunteers if you needed them? |

mircea_popescu |
democracy works great but only on a certain scale. |

Chillum |
agreed |
| 12:53 |
mircea_popescu |
the wot works perfectly well on any scale larger than where a democracy breaks down |

if you need 20k volunteers you're doing it wrong. |

| 15:06 |
asciilifeform |
mircea_popescu: read measures charge. high-impedance circuit, so 'bubble' isn't moving |

hence no appreciable ion migration. |

When the results were analyzed by age group and nationality, ETS got a shock. It turns out, says a new report, that Millennials in the U.S. fall short when it comes to the skills employers want most: literacy (including the ability to follow simple instructions), practical math, and hold on to your hat a category called problem-solving in technology-rich environments. |

What does that mean for U.S. employers hiring people born since 1980? Goodman notes that hiring managers shouldnt overestimate the practical value of a four-year degree. True, U.S. Millennials with college credentials did score higher on the PIAAC than Americans with only a high school diploma (albeit less well than college grads in most other countries). |

one little warning - 'buildroot' is dumb as a rock, you will have to 'make clean all' just about every time |
| 22:46 |

mircea_popescu |

mircea_popescu |
it should compile a pogo bitcoind |

mircea_popescu |
nono. |

interesting, I'll have to look into precisely what that'd mean |

mircea_popescu: it isn't a particularly great substitute for a unix, unfortunately |

asciilifeform huge step forward from all the other people way in the back. |

asciilifeform |
mircea_popescu: missing any kind of i/o scheduler, or, more importantly, task slicer |
| 22:51 |
asciilifeform |
(scheduler) |
| 22:52 |
asciilifeform |
(bitcoind is threaded) |
| 22:52 |

yeah we'll look at it |

bitcoin is, but the pogo is single core neh ? |

asciilifeform |
aha |

grub does init surprisingly much |

is there some way to bolt a program directly to a kernel? |

seems like you end up with what asciilifeform already has |
| 22:59 |
mircea_popescu |
asciilifeform i thinbk just plain weird. |
| 22:59 |
mircea_popescu |
trinque you could make it a kernel module |
| 22:59 |
* |
asciilifeform also considered this |
| 22:59 |
* |
asciilifeform did not like the lack of process separation inherent in it |
| 23:00 |
asciilifeform |
wedged bitcoind - wedged machine |
| 23:00 |
* |
asciilifeform has been thinking about this for a long time. |
| 23:00 |
mircea_popescu |
yeah it's not optimal, but he wanted to bolt it. |
| 23:01 |
trinque |
I'd have to do some reading before I'm sure what I'd want |
| 23:01 |
mircea_popescu |
nevertheless... eventually the only thing bitcoind can be is an os. |
| 23:01 |
asciilifeform |
aha. |
| 23:01 |
asciilifeform |
i'd go further |
| 23:01 |
asciilifeform |
... a device. |
| 23:01 |
mircea_popescu |
i dunno i'd go for that |
| 23:02 |
mircea_popescu |
you may have to change it in a warzone. |
| 23:02 |
asciilifeform |
easy to swap device, no ? |
| 23:03 |
mircea_popescu |
no. because you don't have a fab. |
| 23:03 |
mircea_popescu |
making the code carved in stone is imo a bad move. |
| 23:03 |
asciilifeform |
i didn't say 'custom ic' |
| 23:03 |
asciilifeform |
i said 'device' |
| 23:03 |
trinque |
what's the derpiest unix like kernel this thing would build on? |
| 23:03 |
mircea_popescu |
then it's an os. |
| 23:03 |
asciilifeform |
as in, a box that isn't used for anything else. |
| 23:03 |
mircea_popescu |
oh. well that's what it being an os means he ? |
| 23:03 |
asciilifeform |
and custom si doesn't imply 'set in stone' necessarily |
| 23:04 |
asciilifeform |
could very easily be a bitcoind-optimized cpu arch. |
| 23:04 |
asciilifeform |
(with support for bounds checking and other adaisms) |
| 23:04 |
mircea_popescu |
that, sure. |
| 23:04 |
asciilifeform |
but this is for after the war. |
| 23:04 |
mircea_popescu |
once you got the os, optimize hw for it. |
| 23:04 |
mircea_popescu |
no, actually, this will be right in the middle of the war. |
| 23:05 |
asciilifeform |
if i make it to the middle - i do it. otherwise, trying to leave enough of a record here for the next fella. |

you can printenv from uboot console |

| 23:10 |
asciilifeform |
anyway, the two most urgent items on the agenda for this thing are: |
| 23:10 |
asciilifeform |
1) freezing the sourceballs in time |
| 23:11 |
asciilifeform |
(virginal buildroot loads them -from the net- and afaik does not check signatures) |
| 23:11 |
asciilifeform |
2) study the package system. the dependencies of bitcoind would ideally be added as packages |
| 23:11 |
mircea_popescu |
well you can have it load form your local machine. |
| 23:11 |
asciilifeform |
(source packages. there are no other kinds in this) |
| 23:12 |
asciilifeform |
mircea_popescu: buildroot builds and uses own toolchain, in a kind of jail. so it is very convenient to have the whole thing build inside it |
| 23:12 |
asciilifeform |
and ultimately stronger, because nothing snarfed in from the os |
| 23:12 |
mircea_popescu |
asciilifeform i mean, you can trivially make -from the net- = localhost |
| 23:12 |
asciilifeform |
aha that yes. |
| 23:12 |
asciilifeform |
is what i was speaking of. |
| 23:12 |
mircea_popescu |
or w/e convenient trusted host |
| 23:13 |
mircea_popescu |
if you wish to save the set you used and sign it, i'll host the lot |
| 23:13 |
asciilifeform |
the dl directory |
| 23:13 |
asciilifeform |
if it has a package, it won't load again |
| 23:13 |
mircea_popescu |
actually i suppose the correct thing would be to move the whole shebang on maillist |

| 23:35 |
trinque |
congrats to you! |
| 23:35 |
trinque |
I merely baked from the recipe |
| 23:35 |
asciilifeform |
now who'll be next. |
| 23:36 |
asciilifeform |
trinque: and now that you baked, read the patch. it will begin to make sense. |
| 23:37 |
asciilifeform |
just thinking, |
| 23:38 |
asciilifeform |
there was a time when folks would have -killed- for 128M. |
| 23:38 |
asciilifeform |
i remember saving to buy an 8M stick. |
| 23:38 |
asciilifeform |
for a year. |
| 23:38 |
asciilifeform |
and modern 'brogrammer' wipes his arse with it |
| 23:39 |
decimation |
asciilifeform: ok a legit build error "./scripts/Makefile.headersinst:55: *** Missing UAPI file ./include/uapi/linux/netfilter/xt_CONNMARK.h. Stop." |
| 23:39 |
asciilifeform |
nope. |
| 23:39 |
decimation |
seems like I am missing a kernel header |
| 23:39 |
asciilifeform |
or rather, |
| 23:40 |
asciilifeform |
what was building ? |
| 23:40 |
asciilifeform |
('nope' as in, i did not patch anything remotely close to there) |
| 23:40 |
decimation |
ah, the linux 3.18.1 headers |
| 23:40 |
decimation |
yeah I'm not saying it was your fault |
| 23:40 |
decimation |
I'm running 2.6.32 |
| 23:40 |
asciilifeform |
decimation: hash your manifest |
| 23:40 |
asciilifeform |
see earlier thread |
| 23:40 |
asciilifeform |
make sure it pulled down the same tarballs |
| 23:41 |
decimation |
k |
| 23:43 |
trinque |
asciilifeform: patch makes sense, and lol @ skull and crossbones around the telnet in inittab |
| 23:43 |
asciilifeform |
trinque: i like to mark code that folks can use to kill themselves, with it |
| 23:43 |
asciilifeform |
wherever i go |
| 23:44 |
trinque |
good practice |
| 23:44 |

trinque wanders to hack night with pogoplug in tow |
| 23:44 |
asciilifeform |
having meatspace friends who program must be fun |
| 23:45 |
mircea_popescu |
he lives in a civilised part of teh country. |
| 23:45 |
decimation |
asciilifeform: is your manifest missing 'tar'? |
| 23:45 |
decimation |
otherwise everything appears to be there |
| 23:45 |
asciilifeform |
decimation: i think local tar ends up untarring things |
| 23:45 |
asciilifeform |
how else |
| 23:45 |
asciilifeform |
i mean, if you lacked tar, |
| 23:45 |
asciilifeform |
how would any of it untar |
| 23:47 |
asciilifeform |
--- |
| 23:47 |
asciilifeform |
and already found one small mistake |
| 23:47 |
asciilifeform |
dhcpd is built. we never use it |
| 23:47 |
asciilifeform |
(what we actually use is busybox's udhcpd) |
| 23:48 |
asciilifeform |
can be cut from the buildroot conf. |
| 23:48 |
asciilifeform |
--- |
| 23:48 |
asciilifeform |
i think i also forgot to build any mtd utils |
| 23:48 |
decimation |
I mean tar isn't on the manifest |
| 23:49 |
asciilifeform |
so can't hack uboot from inside this. yet. |
| 23:49 |
asciilifeform |
decimation: of course not. it never gets downloaded |
| 23:49 |
asciilifeform |
or, hm, does it |
| 23:49 |
decimation |
it's in /dl |
| 23:49 |
asciilifeform |
nope. |
| 23:49 |
asciilifeform |
i think we end up using busybox tar |
| 23:49 |
asciilifeform |
for the armv5 os, that is |
| 23:49 |
asciilifeform |
for the build, it uses local machine's tar. |
| 23:50 |
asciilifeform |
busybox, to those new to it, is a unix util userland in more or less 1 executable. |
| 23:50 |
asciilifeform |
(symlinked to the usual names) |
| 23:50 |
asciilifeform |
it is often found on routers, sex toys, miscellaneous embedded machinery |
| 23:50 |
decimation |
okay I think my build error is something to do with the shitty vm cross-mount filesystem and case sensitivity |
| 23:51 |
asciilifeform |
oh and another missing ingredient |
| 23:51 |
asciilifeform |
exercise for my readers! |
| 23:51 |
asciilifeform |
add an unprivileged user. |
| 23:51 |
asciilifeform |
you can do this with the file system overlay (see patch and readme) or using buildroot's spiffy user generator (can't help here, never tried) |
| 23:51 |
asciilifeform |
bitcoind probably ought to run as other than root. |
| 23:52 |
asciilifeform |
(see process separation discussion from earlier thread.) |

| 23:55 |
asciilifeform |
decimation: interesting. no such thing on mine. |
| 23:55 |
asciilifeform |
decimation: are you sure you are building with the patch ? |
| 23:56 |
decimation |
yeah |
| 23:56 |
decimation |
I'll recreate |
| 23:56 |
asciilifeform |
odd then. |
| 23:56 |
asciilifeform |
someone will have to discover why. |
| 23:58 |
decimation |
ah I might have skipped the make pogoplug_defconfig setup |
| 23:58 |
asciilifeform |
aahahahaha. |
| 23:58 |
decimation |
ok I'm not building on crazy vm fs |
