pete_dushenski: "WARNING: asciilifeform_blackhole_reads.vpatch.asciilifeform.sig is an INVALID seal for asciilifeform_blackhole_reads.vpatch!" << anyone else seen this error ? my vtron is barfing this up even though my gpgtron says it's a good sig.
BingoBoingo: pete_dushenski: Have you tried to refer to them with different pronouns in an effort to appease them? Maybe instead of "tron" they prefer "tractor" or "dragonbane"
BingoBoingo: brb, sleep
mod6: which version of V are you using?
mod6: !!key asciilifeform
mod6: anyway, if you have alf's most updated key, the vpatch verfifies the seal for me.
mod6: If you're using V (99994) the reason that you won't see it in the flow is because it needs to be reground: http://p.bvulpes.com/pastes/Hu0ab/?raw=true
mod6: In the new version, if a vpatch doesn't have *ALL* antecedents present in the flow, it is dropped on the floor.
mod6: now why you saw the INVALID seal message im not too sure. could be you have a stale key of his, or perhaps the seal wasn't quite named correctly.
mod6: need more information to go on.
mod6: will follow up again tomorrow.

pete_dushenski: just updated asciilifeform key with http://btcbase.org/log/2017-04-24#1647637 and got same error message :(
asciilifeform: pete_dushenski: upload the key, the seal, and the patch ??
asciilifeform: pete_dushenski: and which vtron were you using ?
pete_dushenski: the vtron version question is a good one. how do i check again ?
pete_dushenski: might just be using an old one eh
pete_dushenski: "Please Update Software Terrorist" (tm)
asciilifeform: pete_dushenski: is it mod6's ?
pete_dushenski: most definitely one of mod6 's

Framedragger: re. http://btcbase.org/log/2017-04-15#1644022 -- i don't really see where the plagiarism is. honest. the title ("collider")? the content (research had been done by monero project itself some time ago; *plenty* of discussion of RingCT outside #t (unless you define "discussion outside #t is not discussion", in which case you are right..tautologically))?
a111: Logged on 2017-04-15 14:09 mircea_popescu: incidentally Framedragger , do you have a working theory as why he didn't say "decentralized systems lab plagiarized #trilema" ?
Framedragger: content's unoriginal and uninteresting, as far as i can see. why plagiarism of #t in particular?
mircea_popescu: why, there's other venues discussing the problems with monero ?
Framedragger: (it's possibly they did not acknowledge prior research on monero, done by monero itself. that's true. also, ipfs project plagiarised the above just ~now. that's also true.)
Framedragger: you will laugh but there is e.g. /r/Monero , and it discussed unoriginality of above e.g. here https://www.reddit.com/r/Monero/comments/65dj7u/an_empirical_analysis_of_linkability_in_the/ (while giving references/links to outside stuff)
mircea_popescu: now i gotta click reddit to see date
Framedragger: i don't know, are you saying that ideas from #t in regards to what, ringCT vulnerabilities? - have been taken?
mircea_popescu: man. 10 days ago ?
Framedragger: that particular link is new. because it discusses this very monerolink webshit.
Framedragger: i'm not the best devil's advocate (nor do i want to be). maybe i can find something better and more concrete, true. it's just.. attribution of this much political clout to #t.. that'd sure be *grand*, and (hopefully) the case in the future. but i just dunno, man.
mircea_popescu: what's political to do with anything ? first guy to describe calculus is first guy to describe calculus.
Framedragger: so to construct a counterargument, i'd have to dig into what particular 'novel' stuff monerolink is claiming, and what particular vulns were discussed by monero project prior to this stuff. i can't be bothered, though - just don't care about monero that much - does that mean that i now have to default to "all shit is stolen from #t!"
Framedragger: i *guess* it's a sane default? hm.
a111: Logged on 2016-08-30 17:29 asciilifeform: davout: 'ring signatures' are not the promised 'invisibility cloak', but more of a smoke grenade.
mircea_popescu: the original question was, that since you seemed to either imply or embrace the thesis that ~he~ so defaults, you are then at liberty to explain the observed datapoint where he does not.
asciilifeform: we discusses the ~fundamental~ problem with monero's signature scheme.
asciilifeform: that remains, quite irrespective of which particular sig algo were to be used.
mircea_popescu: this you opted to discuss in "objective" terms, which whatever, you then later decided you don't want to discuss. fine. but the question was why doesn't ~he~ so claim.
Framedragger: asciilifeform: thanks, i recall, and will try to reread later to see how particular that one was.
Framedragger: mircea_popescu: yeah, i suppose i follow. hrr, ok i'll need to see what in particular was revealed/claimed in #t. besides "it's snake oil!"; i do hope that if/when aes is broken, #t doesn't go out saying "#t said all symmetric crypto is snakeoil! plagiarism!!"
mircea_popescu: lol. hey, mebbe it will, mebbe it won't.
Framedragger: (i'll go right ahead and reserve mine: (1) "euclid was snakeoil!"; and (2) "euler was snakeoil!" << there, now when totient function is broken or rsa is broken or any public key crypto scheme is broken, i'll have free pitchfork credit.) (i joke, i joke)
asciilifeform: Framedragger: deliberately playing idiot ? or is the difference between a proof (e.g. euclid's) and a conjecture (rsa) not apparent to Framedragger ?
Framedragger: asciilifeform: i am deliberately being snarky. please don't spend cpu cycles decoding this remark
Framedragger: (but yeah i see what you mean, of course there's a massive difference)
Framedragger: re. http://btcbase.org/log/2016-08-30#1532069 there was nothing beyond ~= "is snakeoil" but i do recall more particular points being addressed some time before or after, so will dig up

a111: Logged on 2016-03-05 19:28 fluffypony: stealth addresses provide unlinkability, ring signatures provide untraceability

Framedragger will read before barfing more
mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2017-04-24#1647706 << since we're on it, re the dating, i'll attest that while this may have been first publication, it was certainly discussed privately for 6-12 months prior.

Framedragger: mircea_popescu: fair enough, but how are 'private discussions' in this context (plagiarism allegation) any different from http://btcbase.org/log/2017-04-05#1637638
a111: Logged on 2017-04-05 13:53 mircea_popescu: this was discussed in developer meetings cca michelangelo. what of it ?
mircea_popescu: specifically http://btcbase.org/log/2014-09-09#823434 came after intel completed internal review of the thing.
a111: Logged on 2014-09-09 14:10 mircea_popescu: hey fluffypony do you plan to eventually sell the monero idea here once it reaches some sort of maturity or do you just plan to wait indefinitely for b-a to figure it out ?
mircea_popescu: Framedragger i'm not proposing it does anything. but jus' saying for it being said.
Framedragger: yeah, good to note, k.
mircea_popescu: anyway. the thing here is that the concept, if not the particular implementation, is actually very interesting.
mircea_popescu: though as alf well points out last we had this, it may well be actually self-contradictory, this concept.
asciilifeform: i don't have a rigorous proof. ( though -- would much like to. )
asciilifeform: however i'm just about as certain that it is self-contradictory, as that, e.g., p!=np.
mircea_popescu: btw, did we do thailand ?
mircea_popescu: usg tried agent orange, thing went poorly, reached some heights of lulz ("the government is completely functional except it is meeting in a secret location" while usg.protestors were overrunning abandoned airport terminals etc cca 2012) and then military org took over in 2014 and that's that for nato-istan in thailand.
mircea_popescu: somehow very gingerly unmentioned in the list of rice-clinton successes.
mircea_popescu: (they are passive-agressively yakking of "Corruption", of course, which is a major heading in the wikitardia entry on thailand but not, say, the us, or uk, or any other actually corrupt shitholes.)
