10:23 shinohai hue
10:23 mircea_popescu nevertheless, moldavia is still a shithole. always was a shithole.
10:24 mircea_popescu all the worship of one gender by the other does in practice is sink that other, moldavian men are some of the most miserable, whiny, incompetent and discapacitated dudes you'll ever see. almost gypsy level (and guess why gypsies - much like niggers btw - are cowardly ? yes it's because female worship, of fucking course).
10:24 mircea_popescu so... no. tis not teh women's fault in any sense.

14:13 asciilifeform 'The first time the NSA publicly and decisively gave support to ECC occurred at a meeting of the American National Standards Institute (ANSI) in December 1995. The backers of RSA at the meeting were casting doubt on the safety of ECC-based protocols; in the mid-1990s a page called “ECC Central” on the RSA website carried statements by leading personalities in cryptography that characterized ECC
14:13 asciilifeform as untested and based on esoteric mathematics. '
14:13 asciilifeform 'The nontechnical industry representatives on the ANSI committee were impressed by the RSA argument. As the heated debate continued, the NSA representative left to make a phone call. When he returned, he announced that he was authorized to state that the NSA believed that ECC had sufficient security to be used for secure communications among all U.S. government agencies, including the Federal Reserv
14:13 asciilifeform e. People were stunned. In those days the NSA representatives at standards meetings would sit quietly and hardly say a word. No one had expected such a direct and unambiguous statement from the NSA. The ECC standards were approved.'
14:13 asciilifeform ^ mega-l0l! ^
14:19 asciilifeform pure gold:
14:19 asciilifeform 'To ensure that the NSA-generated elliptic curves did not belong to a very
14:19 asciilifeform special class of curves, a simple procedure was devised whereby the coeffi-
14:19 asciilifeform cients of an elliptic curve were derived by passing a seed through the hash
14:19 asciilifeform function SHA-1. Given the seed and its associated elliptic curve, anyone
14:19 asciilifeform could check that the curve had been generated from the seed. Since SHA-1
14:19 asciilifeform is (still) considered to be a one-way function, it would be infeasible for anyone
14:19 asciilifeform to first select a curve with very special properties, and then find a seed
14:19 asciilifeform which yields that curve.'

The point I made in regard to the ethereum bet is hard to follow with the trump bet listed right before it
16:29 danielpbarron and yes i probably could have mentioned that znort is in WoT but znort never talks here, so it's a toss up. Chat more, get more mentions. Don't chat, get forgotten

16:54 mircea_popescu da fuck do these people do, 17yo highschool gossip ?
16:55 punkman mhmm
16:55 mircea_popescu worthless bullshit, i want to know what "company" this is to short the shit off it.
16:56 mircea_popescu also i wanna know what the fuck irl name "milfseriously" has, just in case he shows up at any social event and isn't there as a toilet slave.
16:57 mircea_popescu asciilifeform if it was it didn't last long.
16:57 mircea_popescu still, getting 30-50/hour submissions is pretty good imo.
16:59 mircea_popescu asciilifeform amusingly, the decade intervening has meanwhile totally fucked them. they're moving off ecc now in a hurry, and their dilemma is "go back to rsa or beg alf for c-s."
16:59 asciilifeform lel
16:59 mircea_popescu which is pretty lulzy considering tmsr is supposed to be this obscure thing rather than the leading governmental authority of the world./
16:59 asciilifeform my current understanding is that it is nearly certain that a summer intern has been sent to write a usg c-s.
17:00 mircea_popescu aha. should be funny once his dr wright implementation comes to pieces./
17:00 mircea_popescu an event which, of course, nobody could have predicted.
17:00 mircea_popescu also the above lines didn't happen.
17:01 asciilifeform naturally.
17:01 asciilifeform re: the hn thread and 'her-assment' - folks living under usg are quite like children under drunkard father - they learn to 'build fences' (orthodox jew concept) around 'what might upset him'
17:02 asciilifeform thus it is quite ordinary for folks who so much as fall under suspicion to be sacked
17:02 mircea_popescu lol aheeb the horsy will be fucking famous before he dies huh,
17:03 asciilifeform waiwut
17:03 punkman so should the chick tell her boss new guy is harassment lawsuit waiting to happen?
17:03 mircea_popescu BingoBoingo danielpbarron has a point ; editing people's articles is a very iffy thing, best to discuss it with them prior to publication if it's anything more than a word or such.
17:04 mircea_popescu punkman the chick was the adult at the table, from what can be seen. the "boss" is a pimply imbecile who has no business in business.
17:07 asciilifeform thing is, the boss in the link is not a complete idiot, so much as the mere fact of a 'harassment' suit can sink a small firm.
17:07 mircea_popescu pfff.
17:08 mircea_popescu such a thing as a "small firm" may not exist in an environment where such a thingas "harassment" exists.
17:08 mircea_popescu move.
17:09 asciilifeform brilliant, never-before thought of pill !111111
17:09 asciilifeform why not 'breathe fire at the enemy'
17:09 mircea_popescu it's not a pill, even. "how can i lose weight while eating 5-6k calories a day ???" "you can't. stop eating." "hurr durr."
17:09 mircea_popescu srsly nao.
17:09 asciilifeform 'let them eat cake' (tm) (r)
17:10 mircea_popescu there isn't a pill for everything.

23:29 asciilifeform not geiger, not fiber, but ye olde motherfucking spinthariscope.
23:29 mircea_popescu why ?
23:30 asciilifeform no hv inverter (unlike geiger);
23:30 mircea_popescu it wears out just as much as geiger
23:30 asciilifeform nope.
23:30 asciilifeform no gas.

23:30 asciilifeform dun wear out.
23:30 asciilifeform 100 y.o. ones still work.
23:30 mircea_popescu difference between "still works" and "still same". 100 yo lightbulbs still work, but they don't have the same resistance they had 100 years ago
23:31 asciilifeform use something with reasonably absurbly long half life
23:32 asciilifeform e.g., am-241.
23:32 mircea_popescu i guess they use americium now yeah
23:32 mircea_popescu still, not obvious why it'd be better than geiger, fiber or electronic noise.
23:32 asciilifeform and at any rate, for a reasonably low bit rate, can use backgroumd.
23:33 asciilifeform because ZnS is neither rare nor difficult to make.
23:33 asciilifeform geiger sucks arse !
23:33 asciilifeform needs hv
23:33 asciilifeform inverter.
23:33 asciilifeform which introduces own periodicity
23:33 mircea_popescu heh. and if one day a comet with a heart of radium goes by, we'll know in the keys.
23:33 asciilifeform (and geiger has life measured in 100s hrs)
23:34 mircea_popescu micro, rather than macro is the correct direction here.\
23:34 mircea_popescu you don't want to tie-in to momentuous, galactic events
