mod6: which expired keys?
mod6: alf's? just grab his updated key and replace it in your .wot dir.
thestringpuller: + gpg --verify buildroot-2015.05.tar.gz.sign
thestringpuller: gpg: Signature made Sun 31 May 2015 05:29:39 PM EDT using DSA key ID 59C36319
thestringpuller: gpg: Can't check signature: public key not found
thestringpuller: i have no idea what's causing that
thestringpuller: the only thing that's changed is the keys. i pulled my old .wot directory to new (more sane) macine
mod6: you need to import this public key to you keyring -- there is a comment that outlines the keys you need in the top of the script: 0xAB07D806D2CE741FB886EE50B025BA8B59C36319
mod6: once you've done that, you may wanna clean up and start the build over again.
mod6: just do this `gpg --recv-keys 0xAB07D806D2CE741FB886EE50B025BA8B59C36319`
thestringpuller: rebuilding
phf: thestringpuller: v and gpg --verify use different mechanisms for key management. pgp uses keyrings, v hides keyrings by using .wot folder to store pubkeys as asc files. so when a key expires, your best option really is to fetch a key somehow (???), import it into gpg's keyring so that --verify works AND save it into .wot
thestringpuller: just trying to see if i get same error as on roberto
thestringpuller: will the signed files/patches need to be resigned everytime keys expire?
mod6: phf the deal here is that the build script tries to verify the pgp sig of buildroot -- which is a process outside of v, so a key needs to be imported directly into the gpg keyring.
phf: thestringpuller: gpg doesn't require that. ascii can update expiration date on the key, republish it, and it'll continue working
phf: so expiration date on key is literally a guard, that has nothing to do with crypto. gpg checks timestamp and bails, but it doesn't need to
mod6: <+thestringpuller> will the signed files/patches need to be resigned everytime keys expire? << no. you'll notice that his fp is the same.

ascii_rear: (at least in my original)
phf: yeah, so the case with mod6's version, after a #b-a thread
mod6: there is confusion here.
mod6: buiroot is not v-ifiable. so in the rotor+TEST2 build script it was decided (in here) that we should check the hashes and the signatures.
mod6: *buildroot
mod6: so that is checked independently of V. what V does is a whole separate ball of wax.
mod6: anyway, this is all changing anyway.
phf: i understand all that, and i was explaining that there's no conceptual integrity to it, as it stands. we have a .wot folder which is supposed to be a manually curated folder of <nick>.asc files. there were a few threads where mp and ascii argued that the folder should not be generated automatically (no sks or pre packaged tar files). so if one wants to build a rotor they need a .wot folder with pubkeys of all the foundation
phf: contributors. an obvious next step is to have a gpg --verify buildroot.sig rely on the contents of .wot folder, by, for example, making a temp directory, doing a for pubkey in .wot/*.asc; do gpg --homedir $tmpdir --import $pubkey; done, then doing gpg --homedir $tmpdir --verify foo.sig; then rm -rf $tmpdir. this way a .wot folder is a canonical source of pubkeys always and for all operations

assbot: Logged on 02-01-2016 14:08:41; mircea_popescu: this also illustrates the much larger point of the fukctardation of out-of-band communication. it's stupid and dangerous. there should be absolutely no "alternative mechanism" for a key being in any way processed outside of the key itself. timestamp ? fuck that.
mircea_popescu: best phrase some sort of objection or something tho, to establish a common ground somewhere.
mircea_popescu: bar that i guess i'll have to go into an analysis of contracting legal theory.
ascii_rear: mostly that i'm not grasping how in- vs out- of band thread ties in here
mircea_popescu: ok, let's try this :
mircea_popescu: suppose a world composed of three thinking agents, A, B and C.
mircea_popescu: situation 1 : single band.
mircea_popescu: A approaches C and inquires about B. C responds that B is untrustworthy and produces a contract that says "C has given B X, in consideration of which B will perform Y".
mircea_popescu: in this situation as described, A can make a determination ~without~ A having to be human. it's what you'd call a "strict" determination.
mircea_popescu: situation 2 : two bands.
mircea_popescu: A approaches C and inquires about B. C responds that B is untrustworthy and produces a contract that says "C has given B X, in consideration of which B will perform Y".
mircea_popescu: EXTRA STEP BECAUSE FUCKING STUPID MULTIBANDS!!!1! C now confronts B about A's contract.
ascii_rear: concretize the meaning of bands here plz
mircea_popescu: IF (YET ANOTHER EXTRA STEP!!11!) B responds that A's contract should be "set aside" (WHAT ?!?!) because "the law" (2nd band) says that bla bla,
mircea_popescu: A can no longer make a determination. at fucking all.
mircea_popescu: so they need to add D the judge and fucking hell we're back to what we were fixing.
ascii_rear: btw this is an instance of 'funarg problem'
mircea_popescu: imagine for a moment gpg ran the bitcoin.
mircea_popescu: "expired" keys ? really ?
ascii_rear: in that universe, it is solved. the solution, in this one, is:
mircea_popescu: why the fuck would you want to add another band! it's suicide, obviously.
ascii_rear: static linking of the whole relevant body of law into the contract
ascii_rear: is this practiced anywhere?
mircea_popescu: no, because for THIS REASON the body of law can not be statically compiled.
mircea_popescu: too god damned many bands
mircea_popescu: because someone somewhere told idiots that the solution to imponderable problems is to add "tagging".
ascii_rear: and ianal but meat law contracts often include time
mircea_popescu: time is irrelevant here and can be deemed as part of the explicitation of "X"
ascii_rear: this is the part that confuses me
ascii_rear: why 'time is irrelevant' ?
mircea_popescu: because i did not include it in my discussion.
mircea_popescu: when following an example you can only reference objects the author included.
ascii_rear: thread was originally 'timestamps in pgp considered harmful' iirc
mircea_popescu: the problem with timestamps is not related to time
mircea_popescu: but to that they purport to convey information other than the key itself.
mircea_popescu: that's what makes them 2nd channel.
mircea_popescu: and there's a tie-in here about how all systems should fail deadly anyway, and consequently "timestamps" are not even allowed in the design because no way to enforce them.
ascii_rear: let's take another key field... name of owner. also irrelevant?
ascii_rear: or is it a useful signed expression of intent when key was made
ascii_rear: name also cannot be enforced - conceivably someone could distribute a key with name field stripped
mod6: its just a number, how can a name be relevant?
ascii_rear: signed statement associating a memorable human name with the signing modulus
mod6: doesn't matter
ascii_rear: i can see a case for 'modulus only' key
ascii_rear: but the problem with discarding the notion of time entirely is that enemy can subject you to endless replay attack
ascii_rear: taking your old output and presenting it to anybody he can get to, as your latest
mircea_popescu: name of owner is user-provided anyway.
mircea_popescu: you for instance are "stas"
mircea_popescu: !up ascii_rear
mircea_popescu: and note that the discussion wasn't "time is for all time and in all contexts irrelevant".
mircea_popescu: the discussion was that in the specific context of "key expiraton" the "time" part is not terribly relevant for our discussion of multiband. merely the fact that there's another band ductaped on.
ascii_rear: the statement 'anybody signing with this key after $condition is an impostor' is usefully machine-readable

ascii_rear: unless i catastrophically misunderstand something
mircea_popescu: sure, but that'd be a contract, in-band.
mircea_popescu: not a "wait, band2 says this key is no longer good so you gotta consider this when looking in band now!11"
ascii_rear: ok so it turns out that mircea_popescu is simply insisting on 'p' !!
mircea_popescu: well... a certain design principle at any rate.
mircea_popescu: so.. P :D
ascii_rear: where all rules re: a key are expressed INSIDE the key
mircea_popescu: not just.
mircea_popescu: "all rules re a key are expressed inside a key such that being ignored breaks the whole thing"
mircea_popescu: and if there isn't a way for your "rule" to be made to satisfy this, a) it's not a rule and b) shut up and do some meditation, you're verging on stupid.

pete_dushenski: i re-implemented the search function and added a drop-down archives box in the right column
pete_dushenski: i can't seem to maintain both a static single post on the front page and a full list in the archives. seems to be one or the other in this theme.
BingoBoingo: No, no an actual page with the titles of everything. You know something for people to search
BingoBoingo: paginated by month, year, day is no good.
pete_dushenski: i agree. i also have yet to find a suitable solution. any recommendations ? can qntra's style be copies perhaps ?

BingoBoingo: The code that generateds part of the archives list is borrowed from a plugin
BingoBoingo: the bulk of the page though is static'd
BingoBoingo: Because one can't add new posts to history.
BingoBoingo: But the way to do these things is find code that almost does what you want and delete parts until it does exactly what you want
