BingoBoingo still pissed that "People of the State of Illinois" so rarely includes him in making decisions on who to versus
mircea_popescu: and in other lulz, "United States v. 11 1/4 Dozen Packages of Articles Labeled in Part Mrs. Moffats Shoo-Fly Powders for Drunkenness" is a genuine case citation, early in rem litigation in new york.
mircea_popescu: so he'd come out, run 10-20 cm, discover all these eyes on him, turnabout run back in, wait a little, try again...
mircea_popescu: consequently this poor animal has a bunch of people STALKING HIM, watching his house at gecko's 7-8am. just as he's getting ready to try and beat the god damned traffic to work!
mircea_popescu: now, as it happens a wall mounted screen will be watched mostly in the early evening. as it also happens, fna will sleep during day, wake up for business in the early evening.
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo speaking of fna, lulz of all time : i have a wall mounted wide screen. as you can imagine, it is THE hottest bit of real estate as far as gecko is concerned (very safe, nice and warm at night, plenty of hidey places, a villa!)
mircea_popescu: anyway, gives the lancet something to print.
BingoBoingo: In same way ants doing mango research are there for fna's entertainment
BingoBoingo: But think how many other famblys trying to play social mobility lottery bet big on blind only to see the Gates change the drawing rules on them
mircea_popescu: anyway, there is some acturial basis for it, well buried under the fanfic. much like there's a thin sliver of actual geological survey buried under the "global warming" wank.
mircea_popescu: for the same money this set of microscopic ant guys processing a drop of mango pulp on my counter are doing research at my behest.
mircea_popescu: i'm not sure it has anything baked in above and beyond, "here's a billion we don't know what to do with, because we won it at the social mobility lottery, can anyone halp ?" resulting in an ad-hoc, informally specified, poorly directed and utterly undesigned effort to produce words and "numbers" in exchange for expense accounts.
BingoBoingo: Well, makes sense for the gates fambly for the Buffet reason of preventing future competing gates famblys

mircea_popescu: sical factor of "0.594". the 2010 edition of the "same" list of masturbatory products dropped it to 0.195, because, get this, "we changed our fanfic to be measure of health rather than welfare and blind person is not ill"
mircea_popescu: in other vaguely related lulz : the "disability weight" is a nonsensical scalar measure invented by the kanzure type idiots who deal in "DALY" ie "societal measures of health" and such bullshit. they publish lousy fanfic with some regularity, which can be amusing. for instance, as per the 2004 official truth, blindness was the 2nd most serious problem, (after alzheimer's, ahead of schizophrenia, being the top 3) with a nonsen

mircea_popescu: if i ran the bank supervisor would have pulled licenses of anyone engaging in that shit.

ben_vulpes: fall happened over the course of two days. i am pissed.
BingoBoingo: "No!" I thought, "It wont be long and I wont be the only able-bodied man on the street with belted pants. How am I supposed to fend off this army of punks then?""
shinohai: I can only think that my ancestors rescued the god of jugs and were rewarded with a surfeit of tits
shinohai: As such, I only hear them when asked to trasludar
shinohai: Were I as rich as Sr. Popescu, every night I'd pay 0.02 BTC (adjusted for inflation) to hear these magnificent stories.
shinohai: fr .... When I was in Guatemala EVERY FUCKING DRIVER scared the shit out of me
mircea_popescu: how'd she get them ?
shinohai: ben_vulpes I was just talking to her about the scars .... those things interest me.
shinohai: I also publish for your amusement, the outtakes from her foto session https://imgur.com/a/WIHc1
shinohai: Well she is a bit chubby, but the titwork has been dry for a while.
shinohai: Fuck the police
ben_vulpes: wait i thought it was against the law for human female to be a domestic slave
mircea_popescu: o wait, i forgot. it is against the law in the united states for human female to work ie not be domestic slave.
shinohai: She came after we first met here, went back, then came back abt 2 months ago
mircea_popescu: o hey, you actually got a local gf out of the deal ?
shinohai: On advice from our esteemed Lordship, I only went to Alfonso Bonilla airport in Cali to pick up the Baroness ...
jhvh1: asciilifeform: The operation succeeded.
shinohai: But thank you mircea_popescu ... she may yet turn out to be yet another valuable contact I have met through your programme
shinohai: The things I do for this Republic
shinohai: Now the Lord Baron Titsbare, because he feels bad for some random chick in 3rd world country, has to spend the next hour or so explaining how Bitcoin works to n00b.
mircea_popescu: i'm guessing further cloudflare shenanigans ?
shinohai: Colombia ... one of my other contacts gave her my email
shinohai: Get this, kiwi irc is blocked in her section of the country
shinohai: "Well I see a lot of chicas ispanas there, so it must be legit" (translation mine)
shinohai: Then I spent 15 minutes teaching her how to use irc
shinohai: This has to be one of the most entertaining times I have ever translated en private.
mircea_popescu: mafeketty yes, that part is fine. now, where do you want the bitcents sent ? what's your bitcoin address ?
mircea_popescu: a hey, there it is.
shinohai: Are you trying to type these links by hand?
asciilifeform: http://btcbase.org/log/2017-09-20#1716403 << by definition monkey business with instruction timings is ~detectable~. but the other idea is, a proper ffa is very easy to fpgaize/siliconize.
shinohai: I dunno, have not seen them yet
mircea_popescu: are they good tits ?
shinohai eagerly awaits these tits ....
BingoBoingo wonder what part of Chicom death knell is responsible for these fucking slow blocks
asciilifeform: apeloyee: try and rewrite without the 'while' loop
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform he squeezed a little juice out of the rock, check him out.
asciilifeform: ( which likewise shifts for the entire bitness, every time )
apeloyee: but they are separate things
apeloyee: asciilifeform: the paste contains TWO procedures: CLZ and secret shift. together they solve the normalization problem
apeloyee: apologies for the sad parody of pseudocode.
asciilifeform: fortunately we don't actually need any such thing in ffa. none of the algos require shifting by a seekrit bitness.
asciilifeform: re shifter, on second thought you COULD shift bitness-1 (e.g. 4095 ) times and then mux EVERY TIME YOU SHIFT but omfg.
asciilifeform: ( normalization LOOKS AT SECRET BITS and therefore is forbidden anywhere in ffa for any reason )
asciilifeform: afaik this cannot be done without a physical barrel shifter of the given bitness.
asciilifeform: incidentally if apeloyee or anybody else knows how to make a 1..ffabitness shifter that doesn't leak the shift amount, on ordinary pc, plz post.
mircea_popescu: the stored reciprocal is actually a good idea.
asciilifeform: if that's barrett, it'll be barrett. if it's knuthian, will be knuthian. if newtonian -- newtonian. in no case it will be montgomery, say, or any other non-universal one.
asciilifeform: apeloyee: i want the fastest possible universal reduction that works in fixed spacetime and provably so
asciilifeform: ( and when we do rsa, can store the reciprocal in the key, there's no particular reason to compute it every time )
asciilifeform: the cost of 1 knuthian div is negligible
apeloyee: you gotta compute the reciprocal for barrett's somehow.
asciilifeform: because as far as i can see, it has all of the same problems, but more so
asciilifeform: apeloyee: yes because for guarantee of convergence you need MASSIVE ( afaik, at least 4x the ffawidth ) bitness
asciilifeform: they depend strictly on which op ( which is not secret ) and the ffawidth ( also not secret )
apeloyee: asciilifeform: is it intended that ffa doesn't have a shift that doesn't leak the upper bits of shift amount (via access pattern)?
mircea_popescu: then must do
trinque: heh, I will be sure to push that one onto the appropriate stack
mircea_popescu: teh republic built the man's dream!
mircea_popescu: tl;dr : guy is practically a gremlin, dedicated and ~meaningfully so~ industrialist, married to a credible "woman's job" a la francaise. they end up quarreling domestically when he destroys her greenhouse to extend his factory ; she runs for mayor against him (he used to own unopposed). his platform is "en premier place, le plein emploi ; en seconde, le plein emploi ; e finalment : LE PLEN EMPLOI!"
trinque doesn't oppose a guy hand-carving his own thing at all, either.
