The other thing I'm wondering about is if there are any alternative sequences, with distributions such that sums of the sequence's random samples maximize the probability of converging on sum(X..) such that sum(X) mod (p||q) == 0||((p*i)||(q**k))

on the basis that many problems in NP don't appear to have easy solutions, but *do* have relatively fast *probabilistic* solutions--especially having seen what I've already seen in the data.

addendum

The hunch is that by searching some (parameter optimized) set of additions/sub of X, we will always land on some Value Xk +/- [Xj..]

that is coprime to p but has q as a factor (or is coprime to q but has p as a factor or a multiple thereof)..which is what I've seen so far, sort of like (in a distant manner of speaking, like if you squint at the problem) like diophantine equations.

@kobenz "looking up the bytecode could also be enough."

I don't follow.

Also I know the complexity claim is bonkers but its just a hunch from what I've seen.

What I did was generate a set of semiprimes and their sequences from the algorithm. Then I sampled the ones the algorithm failed on at the initial sequence and ran *those* outputs through sums (plus and minus) from randomized samples on the sequence output to check if they had q or p as factors or were coprime instead.

And it turns out some of the sequences, which failed (were coprime), but on a recursive search the subsequent modified sequences had the factors in question.

Simplified, if the sequence I'm searching is X0, X1, X2, ..., Xk, generated from N, then even if Xi failed, Xk +/- [Xj, ..] succeeded, where Xj is a set of samples from X.

This worked for multiple levels of recursion in some cases.

@j0n4s I just imagine him saying to his assistant something to the affect of "shit you total fucking idiot! This carpet is completely fucking wrong! No, no, no, you've ruined the interior decorating. Even if I remove it now, the whole fucking vibe of the room has been tainted. tear it down. Burn the whole building project down and start again! Jesus fucking christ, I can't believe I hired you!"

Neurosis is a bitch.

@Liebranca thats what I love about OIS. Its a shit ton of sequences and formula that have no (or few) immediate applications for 99.9% of the database. But if you're just exploring problems, and your formulas output numbers with no apparent sequence or obvious method to derive, you go plug those numbers into OIS anyway, and sometimes out pops an obscure algorithm or sweet little line related to some completely different problem.

It's how I came up with the estimates of the tenth dedekind that I posted a while back, and its come in handy elsewhere as well, such as in this instance.

your post is low-grade horrifying.

Someone at microsoft still owns a pager.

I guarantee it.

@Tounai quirks and imperfections are sometimes what make something beautiful.

Without her vague lopsided grin, mona lisa woulda just been an average looking street whore with hobbyist modelling aspirations.

@Jedidja what if theres astronauts on it though?

No, I am the real muad-dick.

write a script on a small IOT type device like a raspberry, have it execute to shut everything off over lan. Connect it to a simple button that toggles that shit.

@jestdotty nightmare fuel but you can definitely tell OP is slowly improving.

@Demolishun 1 minute isn't so bad, its how fast you can get it back up when you're done.

@possum been a hot minute since I seen pharo mentioned.

So much potential, wasted on weird abstractions.

@donkulator "exploits microsoft office, not to insert malware, but to insert a bloom filter that improves their cv by 1/2 a percentage point."

@scor for all their success (they really did blow up briefly) you would think they would have invested in *some* security. What the hell happened for them to fall by the way side and just stop investing in their own product like that?

Is this normal mega-corp behavior in the tech industry or something?

@ViRaS riot noises intensify as springbreakers twerk and jump up and down on the hoods of random cars.

I've always been a bit of a disaster-tourist though so I'm not overly bothered by any of it anymore.

@kobenz I was at work when I posted this so I got a couple things wrong.

The search space is actually the factorial of (log(log(n))**2) from what it looks like.

@kobenz it is recursive from what I can see. The search depth is equivalent to log(n)!

I'd be willing to jump into a screen share with you after I organize the code and write a better demo.

@Demolishun lol. GONE

@cafecortado true. Brackets are there so I don't fuck up and forget pemdas and how it works in xyz language though.

@ViRaS "dumb is the new cool"

it really does seem like that.

Like that one girl that got famous for saying "cash me outside, how bout dat."

The dumbest shit is celebrated in order to promote the culture of cancer.

What a peaceful way to go. Just chilling on the porch.

RIP and sorry for the loss of such a fine friend.

@shovethisrant You're not saying "If I die", but "when". An explorer's attitude, as mature a perspective of death as you can get in life.

You will make a fine astronaut, for real.

Get an LLM to write fake resumes and spam them with it, would be my first idea.

@alturnativ never forget "best foot forward."

@awesomeest ". Apparently ding-dong was stealing them from closed drawers dipping in water then tossing behind dryer for years.

Thats fucking weird but a good story.

We had a dog that stole all the socks and would hide them behind a dresser as well.

He'd also do the same to any loose cash he could get ahold of.

Just dozens of chewed up dollar bills hidden behind the dresser for some god damn reason.
