https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Technological_singularity the 2010s, public figures such as Stephen Hawking and Elon Musk expressed concern that full artificial intelligence could result in human extinction. The consequences of the singularity and its potential benefit or harm to the human race have been hotly debated.

@Clueless you should get everyone you know in Texas to vote for Beto O’Rourke because Ted Cruz should lose his seat

ha, there are so many things
Fireduck
2018-10-10 17:51:38
those arcs could be EC curves
Fireduck
2018-10-10 18:54:07
it is tempting to spend a few days fucking with that
Fireduck
2018-10-10 18:54:16
but I imagine smarter people already have quite a lot
Fireduck
2018-10-10 19:23:23
or everyone thinks like that and no one is actually working to solve it. lol.

300 BTC buys a lot of optimism
Fireduck
2018-10-10 19:27:54
hehe, yes, i guess you are right. and there are people with degrees in mathematics out there in Russia and Asia.
fydel
2018-10-10 19:28:36
And that is enough money to motivate even someone pretty rich
Fireduck

Help me solve it and I'll split it with you. I need everything that you can find about author. Technical background, education, language, political views, etc
Fireduck
2018-10-10 19:30:27
That will help narrow down types of ways of encoding data

2018-10-10 19:40:01
heh, he is running bitcoind on is web server

word choice sounds slightly british but not sure. "big numbers" and "wealth" and not usually american english but that is certainly not definitive
Fireduck
2018-10-10 19:43:17
ha, someone got the 310 already

The thing I found interesting is whoever got it took the time to split it exactly three ways. I would be spamming the transaction in as fast and hard as I could and then worry about splitting it up later.
Fireduck
2018-10-10 20:02:00
wow. that was fast.
fydel
2018-10-10 20:03:46
maybe three maths nerds.

fydel
2018-10-10 20:04:07
yeah, but still risky
Fireduck
2018-10-10 20:04:23
imagine if someone else solved it while they were making that transaction
Fireduck
2018-10-10 20:30:37
Is the solution public?
mjay
2018-10-10 20:33:04
not that I've seen
Fireduck
2018-10-10 20:33:19
probably saying quiet until all of them are solved
Fireduck
2018-10-10 20:33:26
that 0.31 BTC is up for grabs
Fireduck

if it went that quick, the poster lacked imagination

should have gone for ’whomever solves this yet unsolved...’ and pay out after peer review
