Fri Jun 27 02:05:47 UTC 2014 <assbot> btclittlejohn comments on PSA: brainwallet.org's "random" button uses low-entropy Math.random()
Thu Jun 26 23:16:03 UTC 2014 <justusranvier> If a contract is fully specified in some tangible form, then the amount of entropy in the explaination is inversely proportional to the simpleness.

Wed Jun 25 13:36:30 UTC 2014 <ThickAsThieves> "All you do is plug it into a printer's USB port, and the device uses specialized hardware to create a random number with 256-bits of entropy."

Fri Jun 13 23:18:27 UTC 2014 <mircea_popescu> the thing is, the hardcore future problem is not resolvable, as entropy only goes one way
Fri Jun 13 03:21:19 UTC 2014 <teward> asciilifeform: might be because something else is installed alongside seahorse for entropy generation, I dunno. CLI only took an hour for 4096-bit keys.
Fri Jun 13 03:20:28 UTC 2014 <asciilifeform> GUI has a tiny bit more entropy << ???
Fri Jun 13 03:19:59 UTC 2014 <teward> agreed, asciilifeform, to be honest, CLI is my native environment, I prefer managing my keys via CLI. I just use Seahorse for generating, the GUI has a tiny bit more entropy, and I generate only 4096-strength keys :)
Sat Jun 07 19:46:38 UTC 2014 <mircea_popescu> i have no idea where gpg win gets its entropy from
Sun Jun 01 03:02:03 UTC 2014 <asciilifeform> decimation: LFSRs suck. and virtually every academic treatise on rng design assumes a very impoverished physical entropy source.
Sat May 31 23:45:29 UTC 2014 <joecool> though there's some people that gen the keys on smartcard and never have it touch a system, i thought it better to gen offcard (could feed more entropy)
Sat May 31 13:04:27 UTC 2014 <fluffypony> entropy isn't a very long word, jurov
Sat May 31 12:59:35 UTC 2014 <assbot> Entropy - Definition and More from the Free Merriam-Webster Dictionary
Sat May 31 12:59:34 UTC 2014 <fluffypony> Apocalyptic: also - http://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/entropy - "a process of degradation or running down or a trend to disorder"
Sat May 31 12:54:30 UTC 2014 <Apocalyptic> huh, how is entropy correlated with "degrading over time"
