07:31 spyked for the impatient: the download link for the data is at the bottom of the post.
07:39 spyked http://btcbase.org/log/2018-07-06#1832410 <-- ty phf! yeah, that works. though eventually it will be reground into a single tree, as per http://btcbase.org/log/2018-05-25#1818999

07:39 a111 Logged on 2018-05-25 22:14 mircea_popescu: afaik ben_vulpes made one and trinque the other or somesuch. in general, the cause for this is author1 thinks author2 is an idiot.
07:40 spyked btw trinque, I'm getting back to trilemabot-works next week, so I can do the regrind after trilemabot part ii if that's too deep in your queue.
07:45 spyked spoilers: trilemabot-ii will publish prefixed command handling for irc bots. since I'm not the first to implement this, I'll be eager to have curious eyes examining it once it's up.

09:27 asciilifeform spyked: does the csv consist strictly of the rsa keys, or all of'em ? ( asciilifeform currently cannot use non-rsa keys for anyffing )
09:27 asciilifeform aite, i'ma grab the tarball & see.
09:29 asciilifeform mircea_popescu: lol, megatonne of aol !
09:30 asciilifeform spyked: the 'Not Found' keys are not necessarily spamological : many of the earlier items featured in http://trilema.com/2018/and-in-things-that-didnt-happen-today-heres-192-cracked-github-keys-some-hotties-in-tech-included-yes/ today return same eggog if you try to load'em from shithub
09:31 asciilifeform seems to mean simply that key (not necessarily entire luser's acct) was deleted at some point.
09:32 asciilifeform 'As per the figures above, there were only about 4.6 million RSA keys in existence on GitHub on the 1st of July 2018, as opposed to the approximately 6.9 million found by JuroV' << i suspect that the culprit is the massed usg thrust towards 'use ecdsa nao!'
09:47 spyked asciilifeform, phathub file contains RSA e and N only. but that's a good point, should also post the other ones under some raw form.
09:47 spyked well, e, N and metadata

10:25 mircea_popescu asciilifeform butofcourse.
10:35 mircea_popescu spyked the ~drawing~ is fucking terrible. and not merely terrible, but i can tell from its bruteforced stupidity exactly how the writing goes, because it's evident enough the same mind does both and how that sort of mind goes.
10:35 mircea_popescu author should be whipped to death in public square, as far as i'm concerned ; and all others like him alongside.
10:42 asciilifeform spyked: thx for the fodder, i've started up the converter.
10:43 mircea_popescu imo the 6.9 -> 4.6 mn drop (ONE THIRD! in a coupla years!) is the news item of the month, year, whatever.
10:43 mircea_popescu demographically worse than a ww1.
10:44 mircea_popescu re http://thetarpit.org/posts/y04/076-shithub-2018-06.html#selection-149.0-153.220 : you should see the "easy to detect" over @ fetlife, fucktards have five dozen DIFFERENT failure modes, all of them ujust as "specifically laid out". bot code is 60% "handle inept error pages" by mass. so fucking evident it's the result of "incremental development", too.
10:45 asciilifeform mircea_popescu: the 6.9 -> 4.6 was in re rsa strictly, unless i misread
10:45 mircea_popescu so ?
10:46 mircea_popescu "the drop was in re men only, they have neotenic children now to make up the difference". mmmkay ?
10:46 asciilifeform so the lemmings moved to ec
10:46 asciilifeform lolyea
10:46 mircea_popescu they moved to sucking on my cock.
10:47 mircea_popescu http://thetarpit.org/posts/y04/076-shithub-2018-06.html#selection-173.58-173.68 << the game they play is "growth velocity" and "user counts". so...
10:47 mircea_popescu same thing on every other graham-andreessen shitweb "project" or w/e they call them, "leader blabla".
10:48 mircea_popescu socialist capitalism all about dilution, inescapable fundament of the pile.
10:49 mircea_popescu asciilifeform re "moved on to sucking my cock" : http://thetarpit.org/posts/y04/076-shithub-2018-06.html#selection-185.0-189.0
10:49 mircea_popescu ie, ~same distribution as in 2016.
10:50 asciilifeform oh hah
10:51 asciilifeform incidentally nao that shithub has been officially absorbed into microshit, i expect there will be a 'digg -> reddit'-style exodus of deps to some new 'designated opposition' snakepit. but dunno where this is, yet.
10:51 asciilifeform *of derps
10:51 mircea_popescu psssssh. i don't.
10:52 asciilifeform possibly my head is stuck in 1990s.
10:52 asciilifeform but historically they always make a 'opposition' snakepit, 'can of pepsi on the left' etc
10:53 mircea_popescu imo this is well expired.
10:54 asciilifeform possibly; i've nfi
10:58 asciilifeform mircea_popescu: btw you may find it interesting that some unknown % of shithub accts are commercial worker bees, thing is commonly used by small software corps in usa for storage
10:59 asciilifeform luser count drop could easily be from simple unemployment
10:59 mircea_popescu not really. thing is used by aspiring spam "companies" the world over to "build history" so they can become candidates for money laundering "acquisitions" later on.
10:59 mircea_popescu it's a whole chumpatron, doing away with your social security & pension funds.
10:59 asciilifeform ( and/or folx getting their shit together and moving their repo to actual box in-house )
10:59 mircea_popescu if you wanna one day be groupon, best start "building evidence" today.
11:00 asciilifeform well yes , that's what typical usa 'software co' ~does~
11:00 mircea_popescu right. might as well use realistic terminology rather than their in-universe nonsensical wank.
11:07 mircea_popescu asciilifeform anyway, what i'm waiting for is you discovering there's ~1% NEW keys in that 4.6mn pile. after which we can simply declare github ie "technology" production in the empire dead and move on.

12:54 esthlos well there is vtools for vdiff, right?
12:59 mircea_popescu i am confused.
13:00 asciilifeform looking again at his coad, seems like it simply calls out ( just like my vtron did ) to patch util
13:00 mircea_popescu ok, but if he doesn't calculate hashes what's he do
13:01 esthlos mircea_popescu: it matches hashes to build the dependency graph
13:01 asciilifeform http://blog.esthlos.com/esthlos-v-genesis-or-who-presses-the-pressor/ << subj
13:01 mircea_popescu to match them it must calculate them.
13:02 esthlos they are already lying in the vpatch file though. what am I missing?
13:02 mircea_popescu dude.
13:02 mircea_popescu why the fuck would you trust some random number from a file.
13:03 mircea_popescu you don't check seals, either ?
13:03 esthlos well, file is signed
13:03 mircea_popescu "is signed" or "i check the signatures" ?
13:03 esthlos sigs are checked
13:04 mircea_popescu and then the hashes aren't checked against the file updated prior to updating and the result after updating it ?
13:04 esthlos that's correct
13:04 mircea_popescu well yes, oversight.
13:05 * esthlos feels demonstration of dumbness incoming...
13:05 esthlos ok, I'll get on fixing that. sorry for trouble
13:07 mircea_popescu and change how you think. the whole point of even having any of this is to have all of it.
13:07 mircea_popescu if your hashes are unchecked, why bother with signatures ?
13:09 esthlos ah wait, so sig is "I place my trust in this transformation", but I didn't check initial conditions, did I?
13:10 * asciilifeform involuntarily recalls http://btcbase.org/log/2016-09-08#1537241 item
13:10 a111 Logged on 2016-09-08 15:31 mircea_popescu: ie, young brazillian chick WILL have to have her cooking checked for shit, because apparently wash hands is not universally comprehended in brazil.
13:10 mircea_popescu esthlos exactly. for all you know a) you're applying patches on the wrong fileset, resulting in a broken / uncompilable pile
13:11 mircea_popescu and b) you're applying "fuck you()" on the expectation it hashes as "pupcakes and soda cop"
13:11 esthlos asciilifeform: this is 100% true. I need some adult supervision. kinda why I'm here
13:16 mircea_popescu gotta check that the trusted (as established by sigs) transformation is applied on a) what it expects to be applied and b) the provided transformation ~actually matches~ the described transformation that was trusted.
13:19 trinque is the task for esthlos here to produce a patch util that cares about hashes, or to build all patching functionality into the vtron ?
13:21 esthlos additionally, before I make another mistake, does this warrant redoing the genesis (because original item is broken?), or a new patch?
13:22 mircea_popescu esthlos genesis ~never needs redoing. it's a purely administrative decision, to regrind, dun sweat it.
13:22 mircea_popescu just patch on it.
13:22 esthlos mmk
13:22 mircea_popescu trinque the idea is to get a definitive item, does everything.
13:23 trinque makes sense to me.
13:24 trinque http://btcbase.org/log/2018-07-07#1832542 << I'd be much obliged if you did, staying on cuntoo dev until done.
13:24 a111 Logged on 2018-07-07 11:40 spyked: btw trinque, I'm getting back to trilemabot-works next week, so I can do the regrind after trilemabot part ii if that's too deep in your queue.
13:24 mircea_popescu now, shelling out to diff / patch is one thing (though somewhat iffy for reasons discussed in a long thread, which phf mostly fixed). but shelling out to hasher is no longer possible because keccak implementation isn't shell.
13:34 esthlos so two things I see are: 1. what to do for hasher? somehow integrate phf's item into my vtron? 2. what do to for diff/patch? lisp McIlroy?
13:35 mircea_popescu esthlos there's an eucrypt keccak you can either import (by patching off eucrypt) or copy over (as a different patch).
13:35 mircea_popescu also, can integrate phf's code, same way
13:49 asciilifeform in other noose, 4605938 spyked keyz going in starting nao.
13:50 mircea_popescu inb4 4mn lines of pop :D
13:50 asciilifeform lol
13:51 mircea_popescu hey, gotta account for technological progress since 2014.
13:51 mircea_popescu you know the joke ?
13:51 esthlos judging by the vtree http://btcbase.org/patches?patchset=eucrypt&search=
13:51 asciilifeform mircea_popescu: which
13:52 esthlos sorry, eucrypt (bad enter)
13:52 mircea_popescu guy goes to doctor, "doc, my wife is annoying". so doctor recommends warm compresses, to be placed on the annoying parts.
13:53 mircea_popescu months pass, the two meet socially. "how goes ?" "i got divorced" "how come ?" "wife -- annoying" "but there's medical cures for that!" "oh, i tried warm compresses till i was black and blue from it" "no, not warm. cold."
13:53 mircea_popescu "da fuck ? you told me warm ?!" "yes well... that was then. what, you think medical science made no progress in the interval ?"
13:54 mircea_popescu esthlos what about it ?
13:55 esthlos trying to figure out what patch I can base the press from to get keccak. seems like its eucrypt_keccak_birate_fix, but that pulls in the other components according to the graph
13:56 mircea_popescu esthlos if you patch ~off~ of eucrypt your whole thing becomes a patchset.
13:59 esthlos right. but are you suggesting to pull in all of eucrypt, including mpi, etc.?
14:02 mircea_popescu i'm not suggesting either ; i'm just saying that you have two ways you could proceed. either identify among the code you wish to reuse a tree to nestle among, and then your vtron would be an eucrypt downstream item, or a phf vtron item or whatever you pick ;
14:02 mircea_popescu or else you copy over the code you want to use into your own tree.
14:02 mircea_popescu this has nothing to do with the particularls, not you, nor the project etc ; it's just how it goes, either way 1 or way 2.
14:02 esthlos cool
14:03 esthlos question for diana_coman then, is where to base press to get standalone keccak, as refenced: http://www.dianacoman.com/2018/01/18/eucrypt-chapter-6-keccak-transformations/#selection-83.46-83.153
14:05 esthlos if standalone is difficult due to eucrypt_keccak_bitrate_fix, then I'll plan to copy code
14:13 mircea_popescu esthlos of course, if your whole thing is lisp, the utility of ada keccak may be limited ?
14:14 diana_coman esthlos, you can compile it standalone but indeed because of the bitrate fix you'll need to patch all the way to that at least so getting everything in
14:15 diana_coman alternatively you can press to ch9 and then add the fix on top I guess
14:17 diana_coman esthlos, the fix is literally one line + test of the issue
14:17 esthlos mircea_popescu: sbcl can call executables (shithub warning): https://github.com/sbcl/sbcl/blob/master/src/code/run-program.lisp
14:18 esthlos but if it's desired for entire thing to be lisp, then yeah
14:19 diana_coman it can't hurt to have a lisp implementation of keccak too imo
14:19 mircea_popescu esthlos welcome to the mechanisms of lordship. it's your project, it's your job to make this sort of decisions. "should this be rewritten in lisp, imported in ada, be turned into a point of grafting on eucrypt tree ?"
14:20 mircea_popescu i ain't gonna make them for you, even if you turn out to suck at it.
14:21 esthlos gah. hope I don't suck, then
14:23 diana_coman esthlos, measure 10 times, cut once and esp... know why you chose whatever you chose
14:24 mircea_popescu the above especially. whole thing works just like eulora price formation, gotta have some sort of reasoning to back you up.
14:25 mircea_popescu then ~that reasoning~ becomes who you are, because it's what people evaluate.
14:25 mircea_popescu it's the direct equivalent of a key, actually. if you regard a rsa key as "a succession of 2048 binary questions" to which one gives exactly correct answers ; then ~choices you make~ are ultimately the basis of identity.
14:26 mircea_popescu "should #1477 [bit of privkey] be true or false ?" === "do i x or y in situation z"
14:27 esthlos very interesting, thanks diana_coman and mircea_popescu
14:28 esthlos I'm going to think of how to proceed and blog the reasoning

17:28 asciilifeform this means, output can be expected tomorrow night.
17:30 asciilifeform what this also means, as i understand, is that there are some lusers with >1 mod .
17:30 asciilifeform or hm, nm, it's an artifact of the phuctor stats cache mechanism.
17:30 asciilifeform there cannot actually be >1 mod from 1 line of the input csv.
17:36 mircea_popescu does it actually dedupe ?
17:36 asciilifeform it does.
17:36 asciilifeform bernsteinization dunwork if you dun dedupe.
17:37 asciilifeform ( keys with dupe mods get processed correctly, they are addressable as distinct keys but mods are references to a mods table, and dupes get marked as dupes. bernsteintron works on deduped mods table. )
17:37 mircea_popescu i must say this is shocking.

19:22 phf now the reason i kept the branches separate is because i was expecting a rapid switch to keccak as soon as one's available, so the need to deal with sha patches would've been rare. that's not the case, and i want to have similar functionality available for both sha and keccak until there's no more active sha patches in the wild.
19:22 mircea_popescu hrmph.

19:27 phf i've been using vpatch/vdiff without full blown v, because i can order the patches by hand (and there's now an explicit ordering provided by manifest), and vpatch verifies the hashes for me. it would be handy if i could also press existing sha patches with `vpatch -a sha` or whatever
19:28 mircea_popescu or if we actually took ourselves seriously enough to get rid of the dumb shit.
~ 24 minutes ~
19:53 asciilifeform i still dun fully grasp why hasher gotta be hardwired into the vtron. what's the point of even having a shell if not for pluggable items like hash.
19:54 asciilifeform as for keccak, util oughta take a bitness arg ( sorta half the win from keccak, is that you can demand e.g. kilobit hash output )
19:57 asciilifeform in other noose, 1807113 keyz swallowed, containing 1646811 new mods.

19:59 asciilifeform ugh did he manage to dig up a pre-timestampremoval vdiff.sh ?!
20:01 phf asciilifeform: well, that would be one of the reasons why "hasher gotta be hardwired". vtools give you hard guarantees about the format of the patch, the state of the press, that can actually be manipulated outside of unix soup
20:01 mircea_popescu asciilifeform then you end up with hash state machine, and with "oh, this x hash item matches that y hash" lulz and etc.
20:02 mircea_popescu what ~i~ don't understand is why every, ~EVERY~ design decision gotta be re-argued again, soviets style, with every fucking implementation every single time.
20:02 asciilifeform mircea_popescu: no state machine, just expectation that machine has e.g. 'keccac1024' util on it
20:02 mircea_popescu "and this, ivan ivanovich, is why bricks are this long and this wide. notwithstanding what your fucking wall needs iyo"
20:02 mircea_popescu asciilifeform how do you know what hash patch x is hashed in ?
20:04 asciilifeform would say, e.g., +++ b/fg.ucf keccak512 2e1120e28077b4fc31bc2de704cba9591daad2e4193737cf911a0dd49d4731843cc9fb9c3595f65c9e1bdf6a13d2d41011552de688cff10a7074ace6827cc37f
20:04 mircea_popescu right.
20:04 asciilifeform iirc mircea_popescu even wrote 'standardization is great, but where unnecessary, harmful'
20:04 mircea_popescu what the fuck is the ~use~ of more than one hash ?
20:05 mircea_popescu so that i gotta mandate every vtron implements 500 hashers ?
20:05 asciilifeform aside from old-stuff-we're-doomed-to-regrind-for-new-vtron-anyway, largely in the keccak win of being able to emit arbitrarily long hash
20:05 mircea_popescu the whole discussion went 1. there can only be one ; 2. sure as fuck won't be hitler's ; 3. pick something
20:05 mircea_popescu keccak came out of that. it's all in the logs.
20:05 asciilifeform aha
20:06 mircea_popescu the advantage of keccak for this application is tghat it ~intakes~ arbitrary lengthj
20:06 mircea_popescu not that it outputs arbitrary length.
20:06 mircea_popescu hitlerhashes block.
20:06 asciilifeform all known hashers eat arbitrary length, just multiples of n
20:06 mircea_popescu keccak does not.
20:06 asciilifeform keccak is able to eat ~and shit~ arbitrary bitness.
20:06 mircea_popescu keccak eats n=1 arbitrary length.
20:07 asciilifeform ( admitting , however, asciilifeform does not know of any proof that the longer keccaks are actually stronger )
20:10 asciilifeform and yes, i like it largely because not crowned by hitler. ( tho admittedly there is no way to prove the negative of hitlerian authorship for it, the author set of it iirc intersects with that of aes , which ~was~ crowned )
20:11 asciilifeform ability to use variant hashers in v would seem to go with the nonspecificity-of-diddling philosophy tho.
20:13 mircea_popescu in the sense turret-pistol would.
20:13 mircea_popescu if you have many hashes a) you won't have them all properly supported ever ; b) nobody's going to have multi-implementations for most of it.
20:13 mircea_popescu if you have one, everyone can use their own homebrew keccak see if it works.
20:14 asciilifeform i expect that errybody currently tuned in, will use keccak.
20:14 mircea_popescu now, politically i was going to take a soft approach to it, but since phf decided to make a challenge out of it for no reason i can imagine, what can i say, let's make it a big deal.
20:15 asciilifeform i can see mircea_popescu's arg for gluing it in. but why 512b.
20:16 mircea_popescu i couldn't care less what size. it'll have to be something, and whoever makes it makes it.
20:19 mircea_popescu (ftr, turret pistol actually existed -- borne out of that "supporter of creativity" that's ustardian "intellectual property" laws. worked as well as anything the socialists ever sired ever worked.)
