(trilema) asciilifeform: the one obvious optimization i was considering was to avoid all dupe checks on key submit and simply deduplicate prior to each bernsteining. but this has serious cost in ui consistency, no more could submitters expect to see a result that is guaranteed to make sense after they submit.

(trilema) mircea_popescu: check it out alf, bernstein saved us some work!
(trilema) mircea_popescu: actually, the piece is by bernstein, and the abstract entirely vindicates me.
(trilema) asciilifeform: 'A number of IETF standards groups are currently in the process of applying the second-system effect to redesigning their crypto protocols. A major feature of these changes includes the dropping of traditional encryption algorithms and mechanisms like RSA, DH, ECDH/ECDSA, SHA-2, and AES, for a completely different set of mechanisms, including Curve25519 (designed by Dan Bernstein et al), EdDSA (Bernstein and colleagues), Poly

(trilema) asciilifeform: now who wants to try bernstein!
(trilema) asciilifeform: though it won't surprise me if bernstein dies of mystery 'accident'
(trilema) mircea_popescu: wait, bernstein died ?!
(trilema) asciilifeform: but somebody ought write to bernstein.

(trilema) ascii_butugychag: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=04-02-2016#1396374 << sorta what bernstein tried to do. fits-in-head ciphers.
(trilema) ascii_butugychag: i like bernstein but the adoption of his blockciphers by the enemy casts darkness on them.
(trilema) mircea_popescu: djb = bernstein ?
(trilema) ascii_field: 'Dan Bernstein speaks of interesting crypto and boring crypto. Interesting crypto is crypto that supports plenty of academic papers. Boring crypto is crypto that simply works, solidly resists attacks, [and] never needs any upgrades." Dan asks, in his typically flippant way, 'What will happen if the crypto users convince some crypto researchers to actually create boring crypto? No more

(trilema) decimation: they are trying the same argument as bernstein
(trilema) Hasimir: BingoBoingo, that was Bernstein's argument
(trilema) assbot: Carl Bernstein ... ( http://bit.ly/1FOesBX )
(trilema) asciilifeform: he's talking about carl bernstein
