Last Notes
Good fucking morning WA🙋🏻♂️.
I have never liked the approach of “fixing” security issues by just marking them out of scope.
Cryptography needs to be resistant to footguns. You should NOT be able to misuse without going out of your way.
This trivially allows that with a simple oversight

Omg every time I watch this I end up sobbing so happy for Sam and Rosie and their happy little garden in the shire safe and sound

Pep Guardiola won 20 trophies over 10 seasons with Manchester City. Bob Paisley won the same number, over 9 seasons, at Liverpool🤷🏻♂️.

In the game of tradeoffs complexity is typically the cheapest option in the field of engineering.
storage space is running out
A) buy more storage?
b) compress it?
B will be the answer 90% of the time.
This is probably an even bigger doxx than #shoeonhead

> and may i remind you that "homo" sexual (man) is not really what it's about, it's called "boy lovers" in most older languages for a really long time, thousands of years
Thanks. Sure, we have the languages evolution all the time, sometimes into unfortunate directions. I'm sad that the word "hacker" was perverted by media, so at least in some languages we're damned to use other words to represent the authentic meaning when talking to a non-hacker.
You've meant particularly homosexuals in general, not the homosexual pedophile men, by using the word "homo" in the initial note of the thread, is that right? That's a pretty significant difference.
> the nonsense about it affecting the weather is nonsense
So perhaps human-caused global warming is not objectively real (other than narratives) from your perspective; is that the right guess?
What about polycrisis: does it exist at all, as crises that interact with each other, or are they independent things instead? Or is it something else?
It seems you’re the one trolling. 🤭
About the same age as our place!
Not sure what you mean haiku boy 🤣
Open source backend server with a well-defined good ol' REST API that accepts and returns signed Nostr messages
Am I going to get canceled?
Small potatoes fren. The issue is not that engineers don't understand the impracticality of their designs, I'm arguing the contrary. I think the engineers are well aware of their designs and shortcomings. They were given a drawing and a box and said, make a transmission fit in here, you have 90 days and and the BOM must be less than $2000 or whatever.
They don't get paid because they make it easy for you to replace your air filter. They were handed the requirement of the air filter must be replaceable AND fit in this box...
So yes. try to convince a CEO to pick up a wrench. Then realized the CEO is appointed by shareholders to make money, so now turn your attention to shareholders. Oh wait it's a public company...
Once again a problem of incentives. How many people would be willing to give up some of their retirement fund so fuel filters were easier to change on some cars? Have fun chatting with boomers about that.
Any integer x over GF(p) have a modular inverse x^-1 so that x * x^-1 = 1.
So the view private key v = H(S || “magic number”) * s (where s is your nsec, and S = sG = npub) can be reversed, by testing each possible S’, and if it holds, then it is the view key for S’:
S’ = H(S’ || “magic number)^-1 * v * G = H^-1 * H * s * G = sG = S
Then you can trivially reverse the key
s = H(S || “magic number”)^-1 * v
We should do the nukening of nostr.build media, for solidarity 🤣

some people actually know what they are talking about.
not me, but other people
But it's hard to know every piece of a puzzle with a system as large as a vehicle. It's a big chain, and I'm sometimes unfair
> All tweaks are reversible by the server and so they can derive your nsec easily
You could *multiply* by the tweak 't', instead of adding +t*G, and that might be safer, because dividing by 't' is much harder than reversing the addition -t*G
I don't claim to like this proposal, nor that my idea is valid in this case; just throwing this out as something to think about. Cryptography is interesting and fun
Isn't this generally true of anything that's mass produced?
Anyway, I do think the auto sales market at least is basically a fiat financial service industry at this point. That seems clear.
For the rest of it, I should probably stop posting engineering and tech thoughts shortly after being in the shit 😂 I fucking hate everyone and no one is safe during those tough moments.
There *are* times when I get a tear seeing how a design was clearly made with the mechanic in mind, but I don't tend to post about those. Mostly because it gets rarer as time goes on, whether their fault or not.

Like I said, people watch it to have fun. If you don’t have fun, don’t watch it. People can still enjoy the game even if the players are from elsewhere. That’s what the market of the game dictates

The masses need more education to opt-out. The awareness about the science behind mainstream propaganda should be our extended orange pilling.

We need more propaganda science awareness.

Maybe it would make more sense to have CEOs and legislators be mechanics for the shit they're requiring
It shouldn't. Images are hosted on servers seperate from relays.
Exactly this
#nevent1q…0hg5
This is the modern science behind it
#nevent1q…0hg5
I'm not saying mechanics should engineer. My point was that some of the things engineers do make things that used to be basic not so basic anymore. It's like engineering knowledge and already solved problems just get tossed out to design some new piece of shit that is harder to maintain, costs more, and leaves you with about the same efficiency you had before.
But yes, blaming all of that on engineers is a stretch. There are obviously constraints. But sometimes you see shit that is just inconsiderate and thoughtless. It works off the line, fuck anything after that. Some of that is higher up than an engineer too, but maybe they'd push back in meetings if they knew the cost of the choices they're making. Mechanics should probably learn a little about the other side too. I've had that happen where I thought something was retarded only to learn later it was a legal requirement dumped in their laps, much like the new bullshit requirements for cars to analyze whether drivers are intoxicated.
But there have been other times when I suspect they just didn't give a fuck or it was on purpose.
A Sammy sounds great rn. Dinner soon ™ 🤭

Fuckem. Write up a bill and I'll sign it into law.
Some. But I think every human can have blindspots. I tend to think of systems from start to finish, not just the part I'm responsible for.
The issue is that there is no way to derive a distinct key from an npub.
All tweaks are reversible by the server and so they can derive your nsec easily, so the electrum server would know your nsec (and that is why I compared it to Anigma). A list of candidate npubs’ tweaks can be subtracted and checked.
Even asking an LLM would have found this issue. Cryptography is hard to get right and so unless you have a good reason, don’t roll your own schemes.
If you do, do some research.
Just make a new keypair.
I actually do have a couple devices that don't work with rechargeables; my automatic cat feeders backup battery. I think it has something to do with voltage difference between the rechargeable and non in that battery type. Batteries are definitely an interesting topic. I never thought much about them until recently.
Way more fun than TCP/IP. But yeah, there will need to be more layers to it.
