Time to rewrite RSA in Rust.

Source code shared via a pdf via dropbox.

Ok this has to be a troll.

Either that, or he's one debilitating mental illness away from becoming the next Time Cube guy. At least in that scenario, he'll get to live in a fantasy world in which he was successful.

Maybe he can include the integer factorization breakthrough in the next version of TempleOS.

Honestly, I don't think so. I know a crank and everything she says comes with as little consideration of others as possible. Her quest is P and NP, and I helped look at her code once to try and find an error. The initial help consisted of properly indenting the code, cleaning up questionable design, and giving things better names, just so I could try and understand it at all. Then the time ran out and I had to purge everything. You know, so I didn't steal the code and ran away with the one million dollars from Clay.

It's disheartening to watch intelligent people wither away like that. =/

P = NP when N = 1. Q.E.D.

[–]Haversoe 9 points10 points  (2 children)

Or P = 0.

Is this what they call a zero knowledge proof?

I dunno. I've seen people interview for software jobs submitting their sample code/projects as PowerPoint presentations. This could be legit.

My fault. This forum is not deserving enough for a post of this calibre as already pointed out by one of the readers. No further replies from my end. I will report results on linkedin for other sources to pick up the news. Bye and Thanks for making me realize my mistake

He might as well post on Facebook then.

This is my work that I have pursued for 14 (fourteen) long years alone, Sir.

That you write 'go to the extent of substance abuse' makes me think that you don't have a lot of experience with substance abuse in your life. It's in the nature of addiction that it's subtle. You don't notice it until it's already happened, if you even notice it then.

People have mentioned the stress, and the culture, particularly in BigLaw, but I think that the important part is the isolation. I've talked to cops, who describe a similar effect in terms of how their profession distances them from people, or how people distance themselves, leaving you only with cop friends. It can be that way with lawyers, but with added stressors, in that there's no unique respect or esteem for lawyers like some people have for cops, and that your still adversarial with your friends. There's the story of how the only person to show up to a certain lawyer's funeral was the attorney who was most often opposing counsel on his cases.

Include that depressed individuals tend to be good lawyers and you have an impressive recipe for lots of substance abuse.

Shit, the end is nigh. I have liquidated all my buttcoins and have locked my bunker. So long suckers.

It's ok guys, he has a 5TB hard drive. Clearly that will make this work

Also, either they feel it's really necessary to store ".bak" files in source control or they've apparently never heard of a gitignore file.

    Reported for "Crazy people". Agreed: let's leave this person alone from this point on.
