http://btcbase.org/log/2019-01-25#1889973 -> didn't rummage as too late yest but woke up this morning with this: when a= n-1 step
2.
2 aka y=a^r mod n becomes y= (n-1)^r mod n; using for instance binomial expansion you have (n-1)^r = n^r + rC1*n^(r-1)*(-1)+rC2*n^(r-
2)*(-1)^
2+....+rC(r-1)*n*(-1)^(r-1)+(-1)^r; since the whole thing was "mod n", of all those terms you are in fact left with only the last one, aka y = (-1)^r mod n ; r is odd so
diana_coman: that's (-1) mod n so y= n-1 and then there's nothing to do at step

diana_coman: asciilifeform, can you point me exactly to what you mean re n-
2?
mircea_popescu: much like in the case of usual gcd -- checking a random number for divisibility with
2 provides a much larger benefit (eliminates 50% of candiates) than checking a random number for divisibility with 15,485,863, which only eliminates 0.000% of candidates.
mircea_popescu: specifically because density is uniform, if you ~only~ check say 64 bit numbers as witnesses (ie, nothing smaller than
2^63) there's a set of composites < certain limit that'll pass ; whereas if you only check 1-63 bit numbers (so the same ~number~ of numbers) there's a set of composites that'll pass, but they're LARGER than the same limit.

2 modexps of the given width) x (number of witnesses) .
mircea_popescu: so the dood's businessplan is, 1. get a list of websites ;
2. while $list do curl -e "esif22.zcodesys.hop.clickbank.net"; done.

2 mircea_popescu: sometimes i sit here and regret the days i was wriging
2-3-5 articles/day on trilema. then i read one of those, and it's always, "o cute, 1/10 of an article".
a111: Logged on 2018-01-03 16:05 asciilifeform: but in very unrelated lulz,
https://archive.is/bON1p >> 'It’s a bit absurd that a modern gaming machine running at 4,000x the speed of an apple
2, with a CPU that has 500,000x as many transistors (with a GPU that has
2,000,000x as many transistors) can maybe manage the same latency as an apple
2 in very carefully coded applications if we have a monitor with nearly 3x the refresh rate.'
mircea_popescu: consider the item i was discussing with the girls last nigyht over coffees : there ~are~ rules for divisibility of integers for ~any~ integer, not just
2 or 3 or 5 or 9.
mircea_popescu: yea, here's how they resemble : 1. "why are you wearing that old rag ?" "it's pretty" "maybe it was" "same difference" "mkay" vs
2. "why are you using that old math ?" "itworks" "maybe it did" "also". 1===

a111: Logged on 2019-01-21 00:07 asciilifeform: in asciilifeform's o(1) tx indexer ( will be welded to an experimental bdb once i get the mmap thing resolved ) there's a
2-level storage -- a 'write-once' o(1) index for blox of age N ( N can be 100-500 in practice ), and a much smaller rewritable one kept strictly in ram ( for 'recent' blox, where the longest chain is potentially movable )

2 gbps every half day for 20gbps+
BingoBoingo: <asciilifeform> assertion is, the cost of a processing job oughta 1) be calculable in advance of performing said job
2) depend only on ~said job~, rather than what else the machine happened to have done recently or may be doing concurrently with remaining cycles << This is a violin. We gotta get a lumber yard stocking something other than Spruce/pine/fir or we hit the sill plate problem.
mircea_popescu: and even then -- nothing under
2-3k or so worth the mention.
mircea_popescu: i suppose you might say "it shouldn't be x2, my expectation would be it's x2^1/
2", but w/e.
mircea_popescu: now, if indeed per
2 enemy can perma-trash your boxes, then 3 becomes moot.
mircea_popescu: well, i'm not sure what your decision tree is like, exactly. but proceeding logically : 1) it can not be the case cpu is sad on rk ;
2) it is not shown that deffect is organic rather than nsatronic ; 3) the selling point of rk is cheapness/disposability. you can afford to throw these away, unlike an adult server board+deckings.
mircea_popescu: so in this sense, because the t-34 cost 18 units and provided 6.5 to 30 or so sovheads while tiger cost 77 units and provided .1 to 24 naziheads, we can resolve the matter : 18 for 195 vs 77 for
2.4
mircea_popescu: in any case, the problem in terms of "1 tiger is said to have been match for
2-3 t-34" is already misstated. the point is : marginal war gain per german soldier from tiger was like .1, marginal war gain per soviet soldier from t-34 was like 6.5
mircea_popescu: " this gives
2 1u slots remaining, they can be occupied by colo passengers, will carry rk plants otherwise"
mircea_popescu: re
http://pizarroisp.net/2019/01/ : leaving aside how annoying it is i can't select, and how it's the case trying to comment timesout : it seems the case pizarro ~made~ about
2 bitcoin during november, on the strength of its fiat-denominated holdings, taking it from being worth ~14 to being worth ~17 bitcoin ?
diana_coman: myeah, that "into the black in two months" seems to me weird here; the trouble is not even "in two months" but at all; because it has been way more than
2 months and if it keeps going as is, I doubt 10 months would make a difference
diana_coman: I suppose only in some silly situation such as "let's take
2 numbers from user; compute gcd and then proceed to divide and print results"
mircea_popescu: IF 4 takes too little to bother,
2-3 aren't worth doing ; otherwise, otherwise.
deedbot: BingoBoingo paid lobbes invoice
2 BingoBoingo: Anyways, it seems the reason he didn't pile up
2 dozen stiffs over the years is that same poverty
mircea_popescu: imagine this wonder, "we're winning world war

mircea_popescu: in the very strict terminology of the turing test : if you get a mystery box you can't explain whether it contains type 1 moron or type
2 moron.
mircea_popescu: there, intel kicks in : julia sowells, lives with mom @3036 Powell Rd, Blossvale, NY 13308, a single family home worth about 100k market / 60k on tax basis.

mircea_popescu: scraps, and shaped into curls.[1] The cigarette is ignited at one end, causing it to smolder and allowing smoke to be inhaled from the other end, which is held in or to the mouth. Most modern cigarettes are filtered, although this does not make them safer. Cigarette manufacturers have described cigarettes as a drug administration system for the delivery of nicotine in acceptable and attractive form.[
