except factorisation is stupid easy
- andrewflnr 4mo agoGo ahead and start cracking RSA keys, then.
- DoctorOetker 3mo agocareful what you wish for
- andrewflnr 3mo agoOh please. Do it then. It's just as easy as multiplication, right? Because otherwise it wouldn't have made any sense to bring it up. So go for it. If you don't want to be evil and MitM online banking sessions, publish the algorithm and collect your Turing award at your earliest convenience. Unless, perhaps, it is a bit harder, as said in the post you first responded to.
- DoctorOetker 3mo agothis assumes a Turing award to be the highest possible reward, and ignores that a non-insignificant fraction of contributors are driven by a sense of justice and concomittant need to grab power, the reward you describe is inferior to the reward I ogle to grab.
- andrewflnr 3mo agoBig talk for someone who isn't casually factoring 2048-bit RSA keys as easily as multiplying them.
