| archels | "solving" is pretty ambiguous in this context | 05:09 |
| Adlai | excellent how these are sorted in decreasing order of quality... closing the tab could've been much harder | 05:09 |
| archels | if he means solving algebraically, then yes, you can do an approximate numerical solution in your head to gain an intuition | 05:09 |
| archels | if he means solving numerically to begin with, I don't really agree with his statement | 05:09 |
| * Adlai assumes the charitable interpretation | 05:10 | |
| Adlai | ie, you solve for specific points to get a feel for the landscape, then set out without unvealing the full map | 05:10 |

| JayDugger | Good morning, wceryone. | 05:49 |
| JayDugger | everyone, even. | 05:49 |
| eudoxia | good morning | 05:51 |
| kanzure | eudoxia: report! | 05:52 |
| eudoxia | i haven't really done anything interesting as of late | 05:52 |
| eudoxia | how about you | 05:52 |
| gradstudentbot | I am sponsored by New England Biolabs. | 05:53 |
| kanzure | eudoxia: scratching my head about onion routing | 05:54 |
| eudoxia | are you trying to implement something like tor or understand it | 05:54 |
| kanzure | http://lightning.network/lightning-network-paper.pdf | 05:55 |
| kanzure | the problem with onion routing is that you require the nodes to know about the routes or the node graph, which is something i would like to avoid | 05:55 |
| kanzure | but onion routing has higher transactional privacy for end-users, which is something i'd like to keep | 05:56 |
| -!- augur [~augur@c-73-46-94-9.hsd1.fl.comcast.net] has quit [Ping timeout: 265 seconds] | 06:00 | |
| eudoxia | HTLCs are interesting | 06:02 |
| xtalmath | there is something about onion routing I do not trust | 06:05 |
| xtalmath | consider 5 relay nodes, 2 sources S1 and S2 on left, the considered relay node in the middle, and 2 destinations D1 & D2 on the right, they don't need to be the ultimate sources or destinations, just intermediate hops | 06:07 |
| xtalmath | lets call the relay R | 06:07 |
| kanzure | most onion routing networks seem to require a central directory, which is another problem | 06:09 |
| xtalmath | packets from S1 or S2 for D1 or D2 are encrypted with R's public key, which the ISP is considered to know | 06:09 |
| kanzure | the lightning folks have said "well, the central directory can be the blockchain" but that doesn't make me feel better at all | 06:09 |
| kanzure | and if the intermediate nodes tell you about what the next pubkey is, then that's trivially man-in-the-middled | 06:10 |
| -!- augur [~augur@c-73-46-94-9.hsd1.fl.comcast.net] has joined ##hplusroadmap | 06:10 | |
| xtalmath | without even knowing the cleartext, it seems R's outgoing packets can be matched to R's incoming packets, by checking if encryption to R's public key of the packet D1 receives, one should be able to match it to a packet S1 or S2 sent to R. | 06:11 |
| kanzure | i just can't see a way to do private route negotiation, without revealing all the available routes or the entire network graph. how can it be private if you're doing an auction with multiple nodes you don't know? | 06:12 |
| kanzure | i suppose it could be something like "the network negotiates new routes through the blockchain, such that members can join a new route, and each member can have some zero-knowledge proof that they have a payment channel with another member, but nobody knows what the actual relationships are just by inspecting the blockchain, only that there is indeed a route among the members joining that particular route". but that requires some ... | 06:13 |
| kanzure | ... wizardry that i'm not entirely clear on. | 06:13 |
| xtalmath | i.e. ISP simply re-encrypts correctly reformatted packets D1 and D2 received from R, with R's public key, and matches them to R's incoming packets to unmix that relay's traffic... | 06:13 |
| kanzure | hmm well perhaps you could operate multiple nodes on multiple computers, but have each one receive some % of the packets, which you manually re-integrate. | 06:14 |
| xtalmath | I assume this is somehow prevented by random (discarded) nonces in the packet format, but until I have time to analyze source code of onion routing networks, I will not trust them | 06:15 |
| kanzure | tor source code isn't too bad, although it's not the best | 06:15 |
| kanzure | https://gitweb.torproject.org/tor.git/tree/src/or | 06:15 |
| kanzure | https://gitweb.torproject.org/tor.git/tree/src/or/circuitlist.c | 06:16 |
| xtalmath | I certainly appreciate the efforts though, and these will ultimately be needed, but I still assume our processors are deliberately compromised through "ring -2" SMM (x86) and TrustZone (ARM) | 06:18 |
| xtalmath | in which case OS / application level solutions are a joke | 06:19 |
| xtalmath | (unless you succeed in airgapping 2 systems, and somehow building a bridge they fail to understand...) | 06:20 |
| kanzure | airgap is not enough. because sound and radiation. | 06:20 |
| xtalmath | but that does not give you anonymity, to have anonymity, everyone would need to do this | 06:20 |
| xtalmath | yes, the GSMem attack.. it seems like application memory bandwidth (not just size) should have been a controlled resource... but what a pain in the ass | 06:22 |
| xtalmath | this will all end with faraday cages that permit cooling | 06:23 |
| gradstudentbot | I am writing the abstract. | 06:26 |

| xtalmath | fenn: is that a tinfoil hat joke? | 14:17 |
| xtalmath | nmz787_w I was not asking for crackpot theories, just curious what would be a cheap and effective method of triggering mechanoreceptors | 14:21 |
| fenn | hehe the head of boston dynamics says "i do have a film where my daughter is about 1 year old, she's staggering along barely able to balance and my arm reaches into the film and gives her a little shove and she falls and whacks her head on the pavement. she was fine, and now she's bigger, so..." (in response to people complaining about them kicking "spot" the robot dog) | 14:37 |
| fenn | xtalmath: we were talking about building a piezo brain interface earlier, some of the principles still apply to triggering mechanoreceptors (the wavelength is longer is the only real difference) | 14:39 |
| fenn | basically you have a flat piezo plate divided into individually addressable segments, submerged in a gel bag that sits on your head or whatever. to address a particular patch of skin you do beamforming like in phased array radar | 14:41 |
| kanzure | why skin mechanoreceptor stimulation? | 14:42 |
| fenn | i'd really rather not know | 14:42 |
| xtalmath | yes, I was thinking of individually addressable segments on piezo plate too, like cut horizontal traces on the front side, and somehow mill or etch vertical traces on the steel side | 14:42 |
| kanzure | if you are going to put a phased array on your head you might as well use ultrasound | 14:42 |
| fenn | there is no "steel side" it's a uniform material | 14:43 |
| xtalmath | kanzure: I don't want to risk mechanical damage to the brain, using mechanoreceptors subjectively seems safer | 14:43 |
| xtalmath | fenn: I was talking about the cheap $1 piezo disks | 14:43 |
| kanzure | prior to using it on your head you can shoot the same ultrasound beams at a chunk of meat from a grocery store | 14:43 |
| kanzure | then you slice the meat and analyze where the beams caused melting | 14:44 |
| xtalmath | steel diaphragm one side, and silver (?) coated on the front | 14:44 |
| kanzure | you can also try it with cow brain matter | 14:44 |
| fenn | meat is a little tougher than brain tissue | 14:44 |
| kanzure | you can buy brains at grocery stores i think | 14:44 |
| kanzure | maybe | 14:44 |
| fenn | i certainly wouldn't trust something tested that way | 14:44 |
| xtalmath | fenn: I wasnt considering beamforming though, just direct contact with a grid of piezo segments | 14:44 |
| kanzure | fenn: what about formaldehyde-preserved somewhat fresh brain? | 14:45 |
| fenn | you can also get pvdf piezo polymer film but it's expensive and not as powerful as the ceramic stuff | 14:45 |
| xtalmath | I was also thinking of using the heat sensing of the skin, i.e. horizontal copper traces, and vertical other traces (distant seebeck coefficients or whatever), so you could individually pulse heat into and out of skin | 14:46 |
| xtalmath | but I think heat sensation is to low bandwidth... | 14:47 |
| fenn | too low for what? | 14:47 |
| xtalmath | well I'd prefer to maximize signal throughput per unit area | 14:48 |
| fenn | don't chop off your basis vectors for such a silly reason | 14:49 |
| xtalmath | there's only so much skin surface I would be willing to trade for BCI | 14:49 |
| xtalmath | fenn: what do you mean with chopping of basis vectors? | 14:49 |
| fenn | no matter how high your tactile bandwidth there's no way to turn that into the sensation of heat | 14:49 |
| xtalmath | fenn: I meant perhaps using the skin's heat transfer sensitivity instead of the mechanoreceptors, until I reminded myself that its probably lower bandwidth per square cm | 14:51 |
| xtalmath | fenn: the stimulation would be computer generated, perhaps video, perhaps text, ... | 14:51 |
| fenn | that's dumb | 14:51 |
| fenn | are you blind? | 14:52 |
| xtalmath | fenn: what is dumb? | 14:52 |
| fenn | trying to display text through skin mechanoreceptors | 14:52 |
| xtalmath | no, not blind, but I would like to be able to receive information without sacrificing retinal area | 14:52 |
| kanzure | does the tongueputer count as mechanoreceptors or was that using other receptors? | 14:53 |
| xtalmath | kanzure: I heard often about the tongue thing, but don't know how it worked..., I'm guessing its electrical (probably someone remembered "tasting batteries" as a kid) | 14:53 |
| kanzure | recently it either started or ended clinical trials | 14:54 |
| xtalmath | but I would like to keep my mouth free, eyes free, basically, I was trying to consider sensitive areas of the human body that I hardly use, and I thought all the skin sensors on my scalp... | 14:54 |
| xtalmath | also, having a camera facing backwards may be cool | 14:55 |
| kanzure | i have found that i don't really use one eye that much anyway, so devoting it to a screen isn't going to be a big deal | 14:56 |
| kanzure | although i have been trying to pick a sufficiently hard problem to devote that eye to | 14:56 |
| xtalmath | kanzure: you mean using one eye for your screen and the other for real life? | 14:57 |
| kanzure | because i suspect that visual processing could be trained for some interesting purpose if i was to try to use that eye more | 14:57 |
| kanzure | like fucking math notation >:( | 14:58 |
| kanzure | or language acquisition | 14:58 |
| kanzure | or some other visual-imagery-intensive problems, like scifi world building stuff. | 14:58 |

| xtalmath | "Several subjects tried the prototype and gave feedback on tactile sensation theyfelt. They clearly felt vibratory sensation when the radiation pressure was mod-ulated by burst waves whose frequency was ranging from 20 Hz to 250 Hz." 250 Hz :-) higher bandwidth than our photosensors... | 15:54 |
| fenn | sensitive to a different frequency range anyway | 15:55 |
| xtalmath | still 20Hz to 250Hz is 230Hz of bandwith | 15:55 |
| fenn | not if you're sampling at 1 Hz | 15:56 |
| xtalmath | I wonder what the dynamic range of the sensation is though | 15:56 |
| xtalmath | fenn: what are you saying, that the bandwidth could be just 1hz, but that the higher frequencies are aliased? you really think mechanoreceptors have a sample and hold circuit? | 15:57 |
| fenn | no aliased but averaged | 15:58 |
| fenn | not* | 15:58 |
| xtalmath | obviously theres a highpass and lowpass at work, and the highpass is around 250Hz | 15:58 |
| fenn | there are different types of mechanoreceptors that are sensitive to different frequency ranges | 15:58 |
| xtalmath | fenn: I still think the bandwidth is very high, swiping your fingertips over differently textured coins etc, or rough surfaces, translates the high spatial resolution in high temporal resolution, so it seems touch would have a natural selection pressure on high bandwidth.. | 16:00 |
| fenn | the temporal resolution isn't as high as you think; we sense vibration when feeling textures and small bumps, not individual pulses | 16:01 |
| xtalmath | also averaging a 230Hz pressure wave over order 1Hz intervals, would be a constant background pressure | 16:01 |
| fenn | yeah it's higher than 1Hz for sure | 16:02 |
| xtalmath | I am thinking 250Hz is reasonable | 16:03 |
| kanzure | you mean i don't have afm mechanoreceptors? >:( | 16:09 |
| xtalmath | hmm, can one feel vibration from phono pickup needle when supplied with currents? | 16:10 |
