    Firstly, this prime number is not so big compared to other big prime numbers, such as e.g. the largest known prime, 2^82589933 - 1, which has about 82 million bits. About the why.. well when we'll meet the aliens, for sure it'll c

    For the mersenne project (searching for prime numbers that are 110 million bits in size) GPUs are quite efficient. One of the algorithms used, called PRP (probable prime), which uses the reciprocal of Fermat's little theorem (a^(p-1)==

    "A Scanner Darkly" is dedicated to his many close friends that suffered or died as a result of drug use. I think there is this heartbreaking dedication at the end of the novel, with the names of his friends and how they ended. Yet
