Hasimir: mircea_popescu, yeah, aus has mandatory enrolment for voting and fines if you don't show up to vote (or postal vote)
Hasimir: snap
mircea_popescu: lol poor bot
mircea_popescu: i gues next bot is gangbot
BingoBoingo: motorcycle gangbot?
Hasimir: oh, you didn't ...
mircea_popescu: o check me out, i have the day's first line in log. yay.
Hasimir: anyway, no doubt you can giggle at the content of the paste and at least the first submission is included for future reference
Hasimir: does anyone remember which LEA he was with?
mircea_popescu: http://sixdemonbag.org/yomu.html << the sad story about how some schmuck got scammed by the schmuck he was doing drm for.
trinque: Hasimir: try that again
mircea_popescu: somehow the obvious "Don't do drm, you'll be involved with the sort of people who do drm" doesn't occur to his mind.
trinque: Hasimir: weird, your last one went in
Hasimir: go figure
Hasimir: maybe it just hates me
trinque: nope, encoding blowup
Hasimir: it doesn't like utf-8?
Hasimir: or something else?
cazalla: Hasimir, is the enrollment actually mandatory? i know of people that never enrolled so they never actually had to vote or become religious on the day of it
trinque: Hasimir: python needs its tits kicked in regards to eating a u2026
Vexual: ;;ud tits kicked in

Hasimir: trinque, python 3 ftw!
trinque: eh, incrementally better
mircea_popescu: lolwut ?
Hasimir: cazalla, it's supposed to be, but if you avoid it then there's nothing they can do
Hasimir: trinque, it does handle utf-8 much better then 2 ever could
Hasimir: but if you're sticking with 2.7, use: from __future__ import unicode_literals
decimation: why bother with unicode at all?
trinque: Hasimir: yup, it's exploding deep within python gnupg though.
Hasimir: decimation, I like to print people's names correctly, to do otherwise when it is possible is just unnecessarily rude
mircea_popescu: they should be thankful the names don't get translated!
decimation: do you realize what kind of black hole python is being forced into ... to be polite?
mircea_popescu: ye hear that, phteven ?
decimation: and if someone has a name that can't be romanized? fuck'em - they can romanize or have no identity
Hasimir: decimation, I prefer to view it as a new (event) horizon
mircea_popescu: a new what ?
BingoBoingo: So watching 'Mean Girls' (2004) seems asciilifeform likes authentic Maoism in his films
mircea_popescu: decimation we're not enforcing that policy re irc handles tho

assbot: Logged on 22-05-2015 03:47:14; mircea_popescu: they don't even know whom to jail for the most recent leak on trilema.
decimation: are we using utf or extended ascii
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform :)
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo after mean girls see http://trilema.com/2012/mean-streets/
mircea_popescu: should be an interesting study in contrasts.
mircea_popescu: (pretty much exactly same story, separated by two decades and a gender gap_
mircea_popescu: decimation i dunno anyone gave a shit, just, whatever freenode takes.

mircea_popescu: so your deedbot is going to break over someone citing a nick ?
mircea_popescu: "I walked out of the back office in a state of absolute shock. I’d just become a twenty–first century sharecropper. I couldn’t find outside work without winding up homeless — and I couldn’t leave the state because three bucks of gas money won’t get you past Walnut Creek — and I couldn’t get paid because there was no money to pay anyone with."
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform ^
Vexual: nrm
trinque: mircea_popescu: over non-latin1 characters, for now
trinque: though that's something I'll fix.
trinque: will involve dropping a dependency and writing something in its place
mircea_popescu: what you mean by deep in gpg py bowels ? is it exploitable even ?
mircea_popescu: looks like he gave you your weekend's entertainment
trinque: nah, the python thing diddling gpg is just trying to
trinque: whoops
decimation: just turn 8-bit ascii characters into tildes
trinque: trying to encode some bits as latin1, and there are characters in this outside that set
asciilifeform recalls mr mold's attempt at squaring zooko's tri. - speakable keys
trinque: so it barfs
decimation: does deedbot need to be 8-bit clean?
asciilifeform recalls own implementation of it, http://dpaste.com/2E0CYZQ

trinque: decimation: I don't see why it can't handle utf8; the sqlite db it munches on is
trinque: just a python annoyance
mircea_popescu: decimation tilde wont sign
Hasimir: trinque, oh, is this the python-gnupg gpg.encoding thing?
decimation: eh, it's you code, do what you will.
Hasimir: yeah, setting that to latin-1 just works with everything ...
trinque: Hasimir: yeah
Hasimir: well, mostly
Hasimir: I think I might've submitted the bug report on that one ...
trinque: heh!
trinque: found the mention of it in the docs
trinque: is there a workaround?
decimation: yeah, 7 bit ascii
trinque: ah I see how you can set it
Hasimir: that is the work around
trinque: decimation: I'm fine with requiring ascii too; what's the argument behind that?
decimation: I don't trust 8-bit character handling code
trinque: ah, well at least with this thing the output's able to be checked, neh?
Hasimir: that's one of the reasons I started looking at pyme ...
trinque: if there are messages out there that are interesting to deedbot in other encodings, they'd otherwise be excluded
Hasimir: well, that and having to explain to the python-gnupg dev why people might want to sign something with 2 keys
Vexual: !up thestringpuller
Vexual: really?
Hasimir: yep
Vexual: no shit
Hasimir: it's in one of the bitbucket t=issues

Hasimir: mircea_popescu, asciilifeform, I was looking in gpg's import source code for an unrelated thing and noticed something, it won't give you the answer, but it might help narrow the search - read through the code and code comments in g10/import.c of the current master repo, it goes through the specific key error types and subkey fragment types that gpg won't import (which also happens to be most of the keys on The List)
BingoBoingo finally giving Missouri wine a chance tonight. WOrks for endrunkening
Hasimir: also, see if you can test this key ID: 0xCC61ADFF159B44ED (another one missing a UID, but in this case it was made in '94, by a certain expat aussie residing in an Ecuadorian embassy in London ...)
Hasimir: the other way to find that one, even without the uid is with his old email address: proff@suburbia.apana.org.au
BingoBoingo: WTF is wrong with pissing in the freezer and then quitting

BingoBoingo: !up Landgull
mircea_popescu: Hasimir minus the fact that it imports unsigned keys (badly signed it rejects, but unsigned at all seem an exception ?), gpg generally doesn't import the diddled exponent keys yeah
Hasimir: and it usually gives different errors for those it rejects, which you can match to specific symptoms in the code
mircea_popescu: much more interesting would be an assay of the various windows and perhaps mac implementations
mircea_popescu: as very few here actually have either.
Hasimir: I've got os x
Hasimir: and I'm running 1.4.19 and 2.1.4
Hasimir: though 1.4.19 has been adjusted to generate large keys
mircea_popescu: yeah thinking more of 1.4.x
mircea_popescu: single digit
mircea_popescu: these keys come from 2009 at earliest iirc
Hasimir: I can always recompile an older version ...
mircea_popescu: even just reading the code is worthwhile.
Hasimir: ah-ha! finally!
Hasimir: now 2.1.4 is modded to make stupidly large keys too ...
BingoBoingo threw in a bunch of fucking 1990's 512 an 76X keys...
BingoBoingo: Apparently ye olde keys perfectly factorable in a targeted manner... stronger than turd keys
Hasimir: v2 keys are pretty simple, though
BingoBoingo: v2 is beneath justifying effort
Hasimir: and 512-bit, are you surprised?
BingoBoingo: Hasimir: No, I am surprised all of this other shit is getting Fucktored 1stest

gabriel_laddel: ll solve these exact problems and cost $100 dollars - it won't. My point /is/ that the notion there couldn't possibly be a unix worth paying for is absurd.
gabriel_laddel: I'm not planning on selling Masamune. It will be free and stocked with niceties. Where I do plan to make money is on (source-included) extensions, which amounts to contracting gigs setting up intricate lessons for large companies, militaries, private schools and homeschoolers.

mircea_popescu: mkay. lemme explain something about markets to you. the sun is infinitely valuable, to the exclusion of all else. nobody (tm) would consider paying for it, and in no case would they pay anything close to fair value (why this is so should be thermodynamically obvious). meanwhile, ipads have no utility and go for hundreds by the million. on top of them, jackpot machine simulations sell for more $$$.
mircea_popescu: the idea here being that people wouldn't pay for a sane os for the same reason they won't payfor the sun.

gabriel_laddel: also, people buy chemistry classes
mircea_popescu: yes, they buy classes, and no hyperchem lite is not Chemistry.
mircea_popescu: but if your thing needs classes you conceivably failed by your own criteria.
BingoBoingo: H2F, H2S04, and Urushiol are all very different very dangerous problems
gabriel_laddel: I don't understand your argument here - you're saying that no one would pay for a working portage because people don't buy "chemistry"?
mircea_popescu: among other things, i am saying that people only move to america if it's free. if it's not free they stay home.
BingoBoingo: gabriel_laddel: Nah, because people do pay for chemistry. Just the paid parts f chemistry have no portage analogues

cazalla: not so sure i'm a fan (not that we have any black women down under)
BingoBoingo: cazalla: Dun you got dem abbos
cazalla: not many around and even fewer full bloods
cazalla: most of em are 1/8 abo at this point
BingoBoingo: Massah if you got dem abbos you can get werk dun
BingoBoingo: OEOEOh Jungle love
cazalla: pink pussy contrasted with the black skin doesn't really do it for me either
cazalla: not that i'd pass up the opportunity to try
BingoBoingo: I dun see why not. Black girls got the best smell on their pinks.
cazalla: i'll have to take your word for it at this point
cazalla: i think i've met.. 3 african women down under
cazalla: all 3 were hambeasts no less
BingoBoingo: Australasia sucks
cazalla: it can.. on the plus side, it's far the fuck away from the rest of hte world and their shit

BingoBoingo: ^ ;;later tell gabriel_ladell That is how you break a cartell
BingoBoingo: cazalla: ++
cazalla: that wine?
cazalla: must be some strong shit
BingoBoingo: cazalla: I started with normall cheapo vodka. Watched an alf movie and drank missouri wine over "Mean Girls". Was in a mood drank Illinois white over "Bring it on"
BingoBoingo not disappoint because Eliza Dushku makes Pete Dushenski countable people
cazalla: can't say i've seen mean girls before
BingoBoingo: I've only seen it tonight
BingoBoingo: Bitches were mean
cazalla: i think the last all girl movie i watched was something like the craft
cazalla: buttfinex supposedly got ganked for 500 btc
kakobrekla: details?
cazalla: none yet really, just a notice on their site https://www.bitfinex.com/pages/announcements/?id=35
kakobrekla: lol buttfuckex
kakobrekla: btw i dunno how i got that 1 year reddit in my ircs

mod6: Ok, I can certainly manage coming up with a list of everything that went into -RELEASE. And probably a handfull of others that didn't.
mod6: for instance, 'auto' is in there a bunch of times, but only one version obv. made it in.
jurov: well, you can post it right to the list
mod6: Anyway, np. I'll work on it.
mod6: so with "based on" ... am i undstanding that correctly that column is a link (pointer) to it's previous version?
mike_c: "Excitement!!! Excellence! Launching ahead to better humanity! Ethereum!!! Congratulations!
mike_c: EXCITING :-)" speaking of cults..
mod6: AMAZING
assbot: AMAZING COMPANY!
jurov: mod6 i was thinking just a version name for both columns
jurov: links can be generated but imo they are not needed
mod6: ok.
jurov: do we have a link for '0.5.3-chicken' anyway?

asciilifeform: ;;later tell mircea_popescu thing is still largely loading moduli missed (due to db locking idiocy) the first time around.
gribble: The operation succeeded.
mod6: think i'll just add a "links" section
mod6: asciilifeform: haha, yeha, mine is now queued with 5419 in front of it. haha, oh well. :]
asciilifeform: ;;later tell mircea_popescu aaaand somehow '19' turned into '18' !?! (i do have a db backup, so if this is enemy action they can go fuck themselves.)
gribble: The operation succeeded.
asciilifeform: incidentally, now more than ever is the time to set up an sks server under our control. because sks is our ultimate 'backup'
asciilifeform: and the pressure on sks server keepers to start removing things will be turned on, yes.
mod6: jurov: ok added link to that under "Links". That ok with you?
jurov: yes
asciilifeform: aaaactually my understanding is that one of the 19 got requeued, which 'un-broke' it. say hello to our first annoying bug.
asciilifeform: (which will not be an issue once werker runs continuously)
jurov: you haven't used the hyperadvanced lisp runtime that can be snapshottet and restarted?
jurov: if they cycle you once in a week
asciilifeform: jurov: the thing has no lisp or anything else interesting in it
jurov: dunno where i got the notion from
asciilifeform: jurov: and i will point out that it is quite impossible to build a guaranteed power-cycle-immune anything on a standard x86 pc, which doesn't even have a powerfail interrupt
jurov: i'm not talking about immunity. only restartability
asciilifeform: (just getting atomic writes (sort-of) on such a box requires disk controller with battery compartment)
asciilifeform: jurov: the submission thing is a hastily-written script.
asciilifeform: (the sks mass-submit, that is)
decimation: asciilifeform: not to mention the nmi
jurov: "Internal Whitening" ftw
asciilifeform: jurov: realize that folks have been selling rng since at least late '70s
asciilifeform: jurov: and yes, they are typically 'best practices' retarded - e.g., 'whitening' etc
decimation: part of the problem is as ascii has identified - you really want every part to be inspectible by the end user
decimation: the only other method I can think that is reasonably acceptable in this way is radiactive decay
asciilifeform: apparently i can discuss my designs all i want without fear of being 'scooped' because 'everybody' thinks i'm entirely batshit.
asciilifeform: no one - certainly not 'hackernews' imbeciles who ship their hardware with winblows drivers because 'consumer has come to expect' - give a flying fuck about auditability, etc.
asciilifeform: in other news,
decimation: if someone is interested in the radioactive decay, I would look at herr walker's hotbits > http://www.fourmilab.ch/hotbits/
asciilifeform: decimation: there are some 'gotchas' to using geigers
decimation: asciilifeform: your earlier analogy of the deer kneeling before the hunter is apt
decimation: soon the hunter 'comes to expect'
asciilifeform: for one thing, the material, well... decays. at predictable rate.
decimation: heh yeah.
asciilifeform: for another, the process of geiger tube going off is rf-noisy
decimation: that's true, it is
asciilifeform: tube also wears out very quickly
decimation: that I didn't know
asciilifeform: that is really the main reason i do not use geiger for rng personally
decimation: oh yeah that sucks
asciilifeform: it wears out in the same way as a fluorescent light bulb does
asciilifeform: filament 'sputters' onto the walls
asciilifeform: in the case of geiger tube, the fill gas is also 'poisoned' by said process, iirc
decimation: yeah that makes sense
asciilifeform: phun phakt: virtually no one is still making geiger tubes commercially
decimation: tubes just don't do well with gaseous filling
decimation: no my understanding is that folks are 'recycling' old soviet tubes mainly
asciilifeform: almost entire world is relying on the - finite and mostly russian - cold war supplies
decimation: which probably have some variation themselves
asciilifeform: geiger tubes are no more difficult to make than light bulbs, but someone has to -do- it
Apocalyptic: "Similarly, the modulus of Peter Anvin's key is also divisible by 19 and 7704959, in addition to 3, 7 and 11 as" // I have found these two additional primes as well, and only those 2
decimation: yeah I suspect that most nuclear facilities have golden toilet budgets for fancier stuff
asciilifeform: (incidentally, strong's 'experimental physics' (see logs) describes how to make one)
asciilifeform: Apocalyptic: care to comment on the 'is transformation same as picking random N for modulus' thing ?
Apocalyptic: "2) The public exponent is changed to 281479271743489" for which key ?
asciilifeform: Apocalyptic: all of the ones discussed thus far.
asciilifeform: why - remains unknown
Apocalyptic: asciilifeform, If I get some time I will, it requires a more carefull analysis that it may seem
Apocalyptic: asciilifeform, even the HPA's invalid subkey ? I thought pgpdump showed me e = 65537
asciilifeform: Apocalyptic: at present, we have sufficient info to birth these on demand from legit keys. but we do not know the magic trick which yields decryption (it does not necessarily take the shape of a private key! and may not even -exist- for every possible starting legit key)
Apocalyptic: "RSA e(17 bits) - 01 00 01" on the last two Public Subkey Packet
asciilifeform: Apocalyptic: you are correct. only applies to -every key in The List-
asciilifeform: notice it does not include the faux-anvin
asciilifeform: how that one was made - remains unknown
Apocalyptic: asciilifeform, by the way do you have any explanation as to why pgpdump skips the KeyID field on invalid subkeys ?
asciilifeform: Apocalyptic: not at present. will probably end up spending some quality time with the sourc
asciilifeform: incidentally, now is a good time to mention the fact that sks also contains a great many keys which were too malformed to even attempt phuctoring
asciilifeform: (and they make pgpdump unhappy, in various ways, yes.)
Apocalyptic: quite amusing that 281479271743489 has 65537 as one of its 3 prime factors, those cosmic rays have a sense of humour
asciilifeform: they sure do.
asciilifeform: i still regard it as not entirely unlikely that the attack is a pure 'dos'
asciilifeform: and that no one attempted to actually derive the corresponding privates
asciilifeform: l0l! that thing actually existed as something other than spam ads ?!
asciilifeform: and people -paid- for it?!

trinque: WIP, no shame in that
trinque: and no, I personally don't think anyone will ever pay for such a thing enough to sustain its development
trinque: gotta bolt it to some service he'd provide with the thing that's desirable on its own
mircea_popescu: ben_vulpes in particular it's unclear to me how wise the "licenses" angle is for a serenissima derivative. while i declined to anull IP when diametric asked earlier, i am very very far from any sort of belief that the current model of that stack of stupidity has any sort of hope for survival.
mircea_popescu: the notion that one'll make money from "licenses" in the future... heh. not such a great plan.
trinque: mircea_popescu: I take that as "we'll figure out the business model later" when I hear it
mircea_popescu: he did seem of the "i feel like hacking on this so fu" persuasion.
mircea_popescu: nttawwt, especially at his age
trinque: "people pay for me; I have value"
trinque: yeah my mother has no problem with me living on her couch either; doesn't mean I do it
mircea_popescu: sadly, in romanian.
trinque: also the selection thing is scrolling to the paragraph involved, but not selecting
mircea_popescu: so much weird in the browsers....
trinque: Chrome 42.0.2311.152 (64-bit) Gentoo
trinque: yup, errata everywhere
mircea_popescu: if any of you ever getting unexpected behaviour feel for some unknown reason a compulsion to debug the whys and wherefores, i would certainly listen
mircea_popescu: but i can't be sending people on this snipe expedition because i am a poorfag.
mircea_popescu: hiring interview "mr X we will need you to debug all the browsers." "that's fine, but i will need all the moneys" "we only have a fraction of the moneys" "then i can debug a fraction of the browsers" "well... that isn't useful is it now."
trinque: heh, I was just mentioning elsewhere that the only right way to write browser JS is in the mode of a schizoid paranoiac, suspecting all but the most basic features of it of trying to steal your precious bodily fluids
trinque: mircea_popescu: Uncaught IndexSizeError: Failed to execute 'setEnd' on 'Range': The offset 419 is larger than or equal to the node's length (0).
trinque: the line which is 623 on trilema.com/2010/literara-este-grea/
trinque: Uncaught IndexSizeError: Failed to execute 'setEnd' on 'Range': The offset 118 is larger than or equal to the node's length (0).
trinque: borken maffs?
mircea_popescu: for chrome only ?!
trinque: that JS does have the human hair, glue and googly eyes look to it
trinque: mircea_popescu: if I call scrollToHash in the console myself, it works
trinque: smells like a race condition
jurov: any such stuff must be done delayed, not immediately
jurov: in onLoad/onDOMReady handler
jurov: (maybe it is i haven't looked)
mircea_popescu: jurov well it is at the end of the page.
jurov: i'd expect such problems still
jurov: one of these "schizoid paranoiac" things i rather always follow
trinque: jurov: he's got a delay in there of 500ms
jurov: ah. just my 2 satoshi
trinque: all this checking for null shit... beatings
trinque: when you JS, you must resist the temptation to think like JS, haha
trinque: no prototype chains, no "new", no nothing
mircea_popescu: nothing is a js thing ?
jurov: different kinds of
trinque: mircea_popescu: I'd use something like this to fire it off https://github.com/dperini/ContentLoaded/blob/master/src/contentloaded.js
trinque: "are your really, really, really ready browser?"
mircea_popescu: obviously i read dperini as derperini
trinque: lol
mircea_popescu: no fucking way am i adding 50 lines of code to deal with chrome's speshul.
trinque: window.onload = initScrollToHash;
trinque: setTimeout(initScrollToHash, 500);
trinque: ^ looks like hax trying to deal with it
trinque: he's saying run it at whatever the browser thinks load is, and also 500ms later because reasons
trinque: classic JS programmer tic
trinque: and also, it works for me on certain pages, not others
trinque: so 500ms is likely not enough... sometimes
mircea_popescu: does it work on same page if reload ?
trinque: mircea_popescu: jquery literally spin-checks to work around this
jurov: a clue: i get delayed errors for avatars in chrome console. maybe it's related
trinque: mircea_popescu: no, does not work on the original page in question
trinque: after refresh
jurov: if it won't work till all avatars load, that would explain why it works on some pages
mircea_popescu: so what, doesn't make dom available until the missing linked images timeout ?
mircea_popescu: that's classy.
jurov: yeah that's sooo derpy

mircea_popescu: Adlai it's actually in my reports, too. the part i hadn't read thereof.
mircea_popescu has been skipping the web exchanges header for... months, now.
Adlai has brought scalpl for some drydock, next voyage planned for the cross-chain seas
jurov: any stats how much it made?
assbot: Logged on 22-05-2015 14:29:20; asciilifeform: incidentally, now more than ever is the time to set up an sks server under our control. because sks is our ultimate 'backup'

assbot: Logged on 22-05-2015 15:03:03; asciilifeform: tube also wears out very quickly
mircea_popescu: it's not only that it wears off quickly, it wears off as a function of... HOW MUCH IT DETECTED
Adlai: jurov: there's lots of data, but motivation to do anything scalpl-related is currently at all-time lows
jurov: where were we with S.MPOE?
jurov: it was not feasible or?
Adlai wanted to build a simulator to check feasibility
mircea_popescu: tandem arrangements can to some degree help, but it gets rapidly iffy (tandem arrangements of radiation detectors are fundamentally looking at the same event, at least some of the time - not so with electronic noise like cardano measures, where tandem detectors are actually looking at distinct events)
jurov: ohno... this mpex simulator stuff again
Adlai: it's not necessary, but the alternative is to not simulate, which requires an account
jurov: i can give you access to mpexagent
Adlai: !s mpexagent
assbot: 7 results for 'mpexagent' : http://s.b-a.link/?q=mpexagent
mircea_popescu: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=22-05-2015#1143704 << the problem with multiplication in these ethereal numeric bodies is that it has about as many gotchas as memory allocation in c. and most of them plenty unintuitive.
assbot: Logged on 22-05-2015 15:23:45; Apocalyptic: quite amusing that 281479271743489 has 65537 as one of its 3 prime factors, those cosmic rays have a sense of humour
mircea_popescu: who the fuck knows what exactly multiplying the exponent by a factor in the key does.
mircea_popescu: mp does fetlife, weev does aff. i guess i lose out huh.
mircea_popescu: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=22-05-2015#1143748 << golden standard is what alf presented, oscilloscope coupling
assbot: Logged on 22-05-2015 17:49:51; jurov: yes i'm curious what will be the best sampling method.. timing the pulses with some fast counter?
jurov: so ben_vulpes will then use camera to get the random bits off osciloscope?
assbot: Logged on 22-05-2015 18:19:06; jurov: quite an arrangement, this
mircea_popescu: jurov i just meant the type of coupling!
mircea_popescu: incidentally, asciilifeform & all : is b-a pgp going to use vsh for hashing ?
Adlai: (... but this requires customized JSON parser at the receiving side, that isn't always practical.) << pffffff (setf json:*real-handler* (lambda (string) (parse-float string :type 'rational)))

ascii_modem: hash with each, concat, sign

trinque: ;;later tell gabriel_laddel "I see no reason I can't sell computers pre-loaded with Masamune." be careful, you're underestimating the colossal difficulty of this and there are old skeletons on old battlefields that thought the same. *do you have the connections to make these sales to big businesses, militaries, private schools, and so on?*
gribble: The operation succeeded.
trinque: gabriel_laddel | trinque: guy's never sold a thing in his life << lol << ftr this is exactly why I said this
trinque: "yeah I could see people buying this" is not a sales strategy
trinque: what I'd do is try to land a client that gives no shits about masamune, but needs something it can do
trinque: and try to land the client first, don't just assume it'll happen when you're ready
trinque: I've had deals that took two years to close
trinque: strike that, four on one
trinque: then you set up your contract with them such that they're paying for the specific tool, and establish with them that the license for that is distinct from the one for Masamune
trinque: and the above is by no means saying that'd be easy
cazalla: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=22-05-2015#1143710 <<< that site got me laid quite a few times

kakobrekla: looks like comic ray to me.
mircea_popescu: let's try and count the types. first, there's two types with key 4.2. type T1.1 like 4.x and 10.x, which include a central symmetry factor 2nd key ; type T1.2 like 6.x and 9.x which does not
mircea_popescu: then there's central symmetry like in 7.1 or 4.2, but there's also simple repeating like in 4.1
mircea_popescu: and some keys are made of modules with two central symmetry factors, whereas some other keys only include one
mircea_popescu: kakobrekla verily.
hanbot: 5.1 and 7.1 better example of repeating, 101 could be just like 100000100011. 11/101/111 are all symmetric to so you don't know.

mircea_popescu: funkenstein_ the what now ?
mircea_popescu: hanbot yeah actually, not bad heuristic.
ben_vulpes: <mircea_popescu> ben_vulpes in particular it's unclear to me how wise the "licenses" angle is for a serenissima derivative. while i declined to anull IP when diametric asked earlier, i am very very far from any sort of belief that the current model of that stack of stupidity has any sort of hope for survival. << i figured (perhaps stupidly) that IP would take the form of gpg signatures on "i will not
ben_vulpes: send this code around to anyone
mircea_popescu: if anyone feels like downloading phuctor's P and trying all these types of divisors on it see if we already contain one
ben_vulpes: else", unenforceable just like the rest of the gpg contracts
mircea_popescu: seeing how it wouldn't trigger unless we find two
mircea_popescu: ben_vulpes and how do you distinguish who squelched ?
ben_vulpes: y'can't, i know.
ben_vulpes: but for a bezzleplay, it ain't bad.
mircea_popescu: i don't get how it'd work.

ben_vulpes: BigCorp wants training software, is willing to pay for the professional services to make it happen and another chunk of cash for the software already written.
ben_vulpes: "you may use this yourself, diddle its internals as you see fit, but you may not distribute it to others"
jurov: ben_vulpes: can you explain what exactly you produced signatures of?
ben_vulpes: it's a fiat contract, not a serenissima contract.
mircea_popescu: and once a third party has it, what do you do ?
mircea_popescu: "clearly, you breahed the contract" "did not" < unresolvable dispute
ben_vulpes: mircea_popescu: same thing microsoft does. 'you have a copy of my software, pay up'
ben_vulpes shrugs
ben_vulpes: focus on milking the fools and don't worry about the cheaters.

jurov: then why are all .tar.gz.sig?
ben_vulpes: must be extreme derpitude
ben_vulpes: i'll redo them all.
jurov: yes. pls mind the instructions about file naming so that the filename contains original patch ID
ben_vulpes: so sorry.
jurov: it's a bit complicated and i don't know how to make it better
ben_vulpes: derping against complicated processes is my lot in life
jurov: going off, later!
ben_vulpes: night jurov
trinque: ben_vulpes | BigCorp wants training software, is willing to pay for the professional services << this may work if the service is training, not masamune
trinque: we build your training program, happens to be in this thing, how bout that

trinque: incidentally this was one of the angles we were trying to work out with PSU re: daterbase
trinque: did not work out, at least up til when I left
trinque: wrote this whole interactive notebook thing for learning SQL
trinque: I think in the best scenario, you've just got enough revenue to float an R&D department, and you stick a few guys on it
