asciilifeform: http://btcbase.org/log/2019-03-11#1901354 << spyked - i was thinking, 'let's make torrent', then realized that torrent is some (afaik) largely unexplored heathenware, possibly due for a civilized replacement. might be worth expanding on if anyone has free hands.

asciilifeform: !#s luby
asciilifeform: ^ possible starting point for subj.
asciilifeform: re 'torrent', consider fact that orig author is an unrepentant lulzcow and recidivist shitcoinist iirc
asciilifeform: aside from that, protocol per se also has well-known problems (the reliance on 'trackers', and general ease of 'poisoning')
lobbesbot: BingoBoingo: The operation succeeded.

bvt: asciilifeform: https://gcd.cr.yp.to/papers.html -- rather new constant time gcd from djb. i did not look at it closely so can't say if it's anything good or belong to the kunstkammer
bvt: also, i did not forgot about http://btcbase.org/log/2019-03-01#1899904 , but had too little time to investigate it properly; will try to do tests over this week and do a writeup on the weekend
a111: Logged on 2019-03-01 09:28 bvt: http://btcbase.org/log/2019-03-01#1899820 << will have a look at mes; so far potential deadline -- next weekend.
asciilifeform: bvt: from surface look, loox like lulzy piece, e.g. 'The algorithm is not constant-time as shown but can be made constant-time with low overhead'
asciilifeform: and he's doing what appears to be the classic dividing variant of gcd, + newton's method . so idea is to... introduce floatism!? ( and the assoc. eggogs )
asciilifeform: pretty sad.
asciilifeform: funny how easy to tell 'the new djb' from 'the old'
asciilifeform expected to find that linked item is re ~mass~ gcd, in the sense of 'bernsteinization' used in phuctor. but apparently djb has nothing to add re ~that~
asciilifeform: in re single-shot gcd, you either ~look at the bits~ , and that's lehmer's (not constant-time-able) method, or you do not, and that's stein's or the division-powered one, and i suspect it can be proven that yer stuck with quadratic runtime if you dun look at the bits.
bvt: iirc the c-t version of algorithm comes later - around section 5. there is a formula for calculating upper bound of iterations, but I did not check his math.
asciilifeform: that being said, gcd is not the bottleneck of anyffin in ffa.
asciilifeform: ( modular exponentiation is , in all operations which feature it )
a111: Logged on 2019-01-11 17:34 asciilifeform: whereas the gcd litmus ( gcd(candidate, primorial) ) costs 1ms .
a111: Logged on 2019-01-24 00:44 asciilifeform: meanwhile , measurements : 2.533s is cost of 1 shot of 4096bit m-r (on standard tester iron)
bvt: ok, i see
asciilifeform: constanttimeized stein's o(n^2) gcd ( http://www.loper-os.org/?p=2963 ) is not only imho fast enuff (even a magical 100fold speedup in it, would not affect speed of rsa key gen measurably , consider above ) but fits-in-head and has no error terms.
asciilifeform: so presently i cannot think of a scenario where i'd want to reopen the case of gcd.
asciilifeform: bvt: ty for the link tho, it confirms the (already yrs-long) suspicion that d00d's head is fulla maggots nao.
asciilifeform: if the upstack note was unclear, btw -- you can do ~2500 4096b gcd's for the price of 1 4096b modexp.
asciilifeform: err, 4096b m-r (i.e. price of 2 modexps)
asciilifeform: this is because a n-bit gcd (as appears in ch15 ffa) is simply 2n n-bit subtractions, 4n n-bit shifts, 2n n-bit muxes, plus some small change.
trinque: wahoo, second confirmation. thanks bvt !

mircea_popescu: that's the situation, djb never derped at length about republican values.
mircea_popescu: one example that'd come close is that aurenheimer schmuck say, or the charlie shrimp.
mircea_popescu: but these two cocksuckers ~never did anything~, they were lords like nubbins was one briefly.
mircea_popescu: this is a huge fucking difference, at least in my eyes.
asciilifeform: wait djb was lord ?!
asciilifeform: how's that work
mircea_popescu: djb was just some manalone. perhaps more talented than most, but manalone is manalone, like a very talented chimp. howsoever talented, the chimp's not a person.
mircea_popescu: the cohen dork, ~claimed it~. like rms or linus or hwatever other, "cypherpunks" / "internet freedom" blablabla. like the piratebay dorks, like zimmerman, and so on.
asciilifeform: djb was imho textbook case of 'один в поле -- не воин'(tm)(r)
mircea_popescu: i suppose.
asciilifeform: ( i have nfi whether the ancients had this proverb, but betcha they did )
asciilifeform: cohen iirc was from day1 aligned with the wikitards & the rest of that gang of pseudo-republic people
